Although granularity is important for any PPC campaign, it becomes even more important for eCommerce retailers. As a result, you'll want to ensure that your mCommerce campaigns and ad groups follow in the like. But keep in mind, these mobile campaigns should be segmented from your other devices. This is because mobile-specific campaigns have seen a 12% increase in average CTR and a 29% increase in clicks over hybrid campaigns. Start by taking a look at the product categories and design your campaign structure accordingly. This way, your product-specific ad groups will fall into place nicely based on your campaign segmentation and you will then be able to send users to the most specific landing page possible. You might also consider creating additional campaigns based on seasonal products or your most popular items to ensure they have sufficient budget.

When you consider that mobile users are often on the move, it is important to ensure that your keywords are concise and focused starting out. Essentially, this improves the overall searchability of your brand and products while you gain a foothold in the mobile advertising space. However, roughly 40% of mobile search queries are 4 words or more, so it is vital to expand your keyword list as your mCommerce campaigns mature. Reviewing search query data can be a great way to expand your keyword lists if you aren't sure where to start

- PPC management said...
Ad extensions are a great way of presenting a call-to-action in your ad. If you aren't using ad extensions, you're missing out! There are various extensions available specifically for mobile ads, such as location and click-to-call. Location extensions are a must when you consider the fact that roughly 61% of smartphone users make local searches from a device looking for shopping venues, restaurants, etc. There are also click-to-call features that enable users to easily contact your store, which can also benefit mCommerce campaigns.

Social Business: If You Build It, Will They Come?By Susan Nunziata
Social Business: If You Build It, Will They Come?
Anyone who's been paying attention knows that social media, big data, cloud computing and mobility are colliding in the enterprise, transforming the way we live and work. Along the way, these factors are raising a host of challenges for the IT organization, as well as the governance and compliance departments.
The impact of these trends is being felt on two fronts: Externally, enterprise customers are making quick use of social media and mobility to influence brand image and make purchasing decisions. Internally, workers are using social media and mobility -- whether IT likes it or not -- and there's vast, untapped opportunity to harness these ways of working to foster collaboration and communication, change business processes and potentially influence the bottom line.
Software and solutions vendors are aiming to give enterprises the tools that would enable them to marry social, cloud and mobility -- internally and externally -- in a way that accommodates the trends while keeping the very real needs for data security, compliance and risk management in mind.
According to Forrester Research, the market opportunity for social enterprise apps is expected to grow from $600 million in year-end 2011 to $6.4 billion by year-end 2016, a 61 percent increase. The research firm also predicts that cloud computing will grow from a $41 billion business in 2011 to $241 billion by 2020. Meanwhile, the mobile workforce is projected by IDC to reach more than 1.19 billion people worldwide by 2013.
CIOs have the opportunity to drive the discussions about external- and internal-facing social business strategies, and a close look reveals that, in fact, the two are really inextricably entwined.
Externally, businesses need to be able to process and make sense of the vast volumes of data being generated on social media in order to make intelligent business decisions.
Inside the enterprise, the consumerization of IT is a much-discussed topic these days, and the consensus tends to be "give the people what they want."
These were the twin focal points at the IBM Lotusphere and IBM Connect conferences -- held simultaneously in Orlando, FL, Jan. 15-18. At the same time, it was refreshing to hear talk about the needs of the enterprise and, particularly, IT, placed front-and-center in the many discussions taking place around mobility and social media.
How tomorrow's "social business" will play out is less a
discussion about specific technologies and solutions, and more about the challenges
of change management. The real question to ask now is: Do "sanctioned" social
media and mobility solutions handed down from within an organizational
hierarchy stand any hope of being embraced productively and enthusiastically by
an enterprise workforce?
It's early days to try and answer that question, but the use cases presented at IBM Connect offer a glimpse into what lies ahead.
Social Business: What Lies Ahead?
A number of enterprises, including BASF, Premier Healthcare Alliance and the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration - as well as IBM itself - have implemented IBM's suite of services known as IBM Connections, a platform that incorporates cloud, social networking and mobility solutions.
"This is one of things I think is really important about social business: It's not just about cool tools, it has to be about business outcomes," said Jeanette Horan, IBM VP/CIO, during a session at IBM Connect. "What is it that the business can get if you implement them into your business processes?"
Indeed, in conversation after conversation with CIOs and other IT leaders who are pursuing a "social business" strategy, it always boils down to how the tools can change business processes. Sometimes, IT has a hard time convincing users who have grown accustomed to viewing social media as a "fun" tool that it has real business potential.
Dr. CheeChin Liew, enterprise community manager at BASF, presented a case study at IBM Connect in which he described implementing IBM Connections in May 2010 as the platform behind the connect.BASF network. He said workers often ask him how they can join the company's Facebook. "It's good to have social media that is so well known but it's hard to for them to unlearn this," says Liew. "We have to tell them it's not a Facebook. It's not for fun, it's actually for work."
BASF has more than 109,000 workers worldwide and its goal with connect.BASF was to break down business silos and foster collaboration among a dispersed workforce. In the 18 months since connect.BASF launched, 28,500 employees have signed on and are using the network, forming 2,300 different communities, according to Liew. The efforts to raise awareness and entice users continue. "We didn't expect that we'd need so much coaching, that was a surprise for us," says Liew. "Training and coaching takes much of our time."
At the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration, Lead IT Architect Robert van den Breemen, said the organization's digital workspace initiative -- which includes the Connect People network built on the IBM Connections platform -- has changed the way his team talks about technology. Presenting his case study at IBM Connect, van den Breemen said, "The main change is that we started to no longer talk about the technology and products people use in their daily work. Instead, we started to talk about people. All our initiatives [now] are human centric."
The Dutch Tax and Customs Administration employs more than 32,000 staff members at 150 locations. In the three months since its Connect People network launched, 4,000 workers have joined and they've launched 615 communities, according to van den Breemen.
Getting Buy-In From the Board
Premier Healthcare Alliance is jointly owned by 200 hospitals and has affiliations with a total of 2,500 hospitals and 80,000 other healthcare operations. It handles group contracting for hospital products and services, shares clinical knowledge among its members and provides a forum in which members can share their experiences with insurance claims and risks.
In a case study presented at IBM Connect, CTO Denise Hatzidaki discussed how the organization is a year into its multifaceted community and analytics project, known as the Integrated Performance Platform, that will be built out over the next three to five years. The Integrated Performance Platform has three components: community; applications; and integrated data. The goals are to make sense of what Hatzidaki called the "plume of data" that surrounds clinicians and patients, and tease out relevant insight, information and intelligence for users. "It's about how to make those insights available at the right time at the right place for the right individuals," she said.
"You talk to some folks who say 'I don't want to give my [employees] Twitter, how will they get any work done?' This change isn't an IT thing," said Hatzidaki. "It's for us to work with business on how to ... solve the business problems we 're trying to fix today."
She added: "The problem is not technology, it's culture. How do we enable people to think differently about how we solve [business] problems?"
Hatzidaki had to get buy-in on the Integrated Performance Platform from the organization's board. Winning over the medical establishment's leaders required "going very methodically over every proof point. We were very careful to set milestones and goals. [You have to] talk to the business in the business's language: 'We're going to enable performance improvement by making this available to the members.' You want to show incremental improvements. Nothing speaks better than incremental data points."
Working jointly with IBM and technology consulting firm Perficient, Premier has begun building the community components of its Integrated Performance Platform. "Our goal is to take this platform and build an ecosystem for healthcare" that makes it easy for users to communicate, collaborate, share and analyze data in order to improve outcomes and solve pressing medical problems, explained Hatzidaki.
IT leaders interviewed by CIO Insight during IBM Connect agree, though, that the danger in building any social business platform lies in the "Field of Dreams" belief that "if you build it they will come."
IBM has some 425,000 employees in 170 countries, along with another 100,000 or so subcontractors. Horan said her team supports a total of about 550,000 endpoints. Some 90,000 IBM employees are actively using IBM Connections, according to Carol Sormilic, VP of global workforce and web Processes. "Our goal is to get all 425,000 to join," she said.
Raising awareness, providing education and training, sharing success stories and finding ways to reward users are just some of the tactics organizations are using to increase the use of their social business solutions.
"Right now, IT is leading the social business revolution," said IBM's Horan. "The business users have to understand what's possible. In some ways it's very similar to early days of web. If you went to business users back in 1993 and asked them 'How would you use a web browser and website?' they'd look at you as if you were stupid."
If social business indeed proves to be as instrumental in our daily lives as the Web has become, then any CIO willing to bet on pushing the enterprise into this emerging ecosystem could end up being amply rewarded.

Things are so bad in Philadelphia that reporters are just asking Andy Reid if he's going to quit to save himself the indignity of being fired. The Eagles were soundly defeated by the Redskins yesterday, 31-6, bringing Philly down to 3-7 and all by itself at the bottom of the NFC East. Mike Vick can barely function as a regular human being and LeSean McCoy might be right behind him. Reid recently fired offensive
coordinator line coach-turned-defensive coordinator, Juan Castillo and the Eagles have lost six straight. This is but a sampling of what a terrible season it's been.
So, with one coordinator and two star players down, the bullseye has nowhere else to go but on the head coach. The sentiment is fine—media openly speculating about your job is the cost of doing business in professional sports—but just being straight up asked at a press conference if you should resign is a whole different animal.
Reid handled it in typical Reid fashion—which probably only further infuriated Philadelphians—and took responsibility for everything and said he's going to fight this thing to the end.
"I'm standing in front of the team and saying these are the things we need to do, one of which is we need to battle," Reid said. "I think [resigning] would be a cop out. That's not how I see things. That's now how I'm wired. I'm not going to tell them one thing and do the other."
It seems all but certain that Reid will not be back as the Eagles coach at this point, but he won't be the one pulling the plug. Even if you ask him.

Google's Street View Gets Stunning Imagery from the Grand Canyon
Google has added Grand Canyon to the list of its Street View-supported locations in Google Maps, and it's really a sight to behold.
To create this new Street View experience, which includes more than 75 miles of trails and surrounding rounds, Google took 9,500 panoramas of the Grand Canyon. The Google Maps team walked through the canyon carrying the Android-operated, 40-pound Trekker backpacks — a 15-lens camera system that took the images.
"The narrow ridges and steep, exposed trails of the Grand Canyon provide the perfect terrain for our newest camera system. The Trekker—which its operator controls via an Android phone and automatically gathers photos as he walks—enables the collection of high-quality imagery from places that are only accessible on foot," Google wrote in October 2012, when the images were taken.
The sights include the Bright Angel Trail, South Kaibab Trail, the Meteor Crater and other famous locations in one of the world's largest canyons.
Start exploring the Grand Canyon here and tell us how you like the experience in the comments!

The 2013 Major League playoff teams will be ...
Four of six current leaders will win their division, one other will earn Wild Card
Sorry, baseball division leaders, but you should wait several weeks or a couple of months before you develop plans to drape bunting around your ballpark.
Contrary to popular belief, Major League teams leading their division at the All-Star break aren't guaranteed to reach the playoffs. In fact, according to the Elias Sports Bureau, only 50 percent of such teams actually won their division during the past five years, including just two of six teams last season.
This isn't the best of news for the Braves, Cardinals, D-backs, Red Sox, Tigers and Athletics. Those are the division leaders entering baseball's unofficial second half, and they'll all have at least one challenger capable of making their lives miserable down the stretch.
That said, I'll tell you who will sit atop of each division at the end of the season, and here's a hint: Those recent percentages from the Elias folks involving division leaders at the All-Star break who eventually go all the way are about to rise in a hurry.
National League East
The Braves lead now, and they'll lead at the end.
This is more of an indictment against the rest of the division than praise for a team that can pitch with anybody but has the most flawed offense in the game. While they hit a slew of home runs, the Braves strike out more than anybody not named the Astros. They also rank in the bottom third of baseball in stolen bases, and when you combine that with all of those strikeouts, they often have an inability to manufacture runs.
Which leads to this: The Braves have spent most of the year leading the Major Leagues in getting shut out.
So there is hope for the Nationals, among the game's most underachieving teams. As long as the Nats have the likes of Bryce Harper at the plate and Stephen Strasburg on the mound, Atlanta can't exhale, even with a six-game lead over second-place Washington.
Remember, too, the Phillies are 6 1/2 games back, and provided they don't have a fire sale by the approaching Trade Deadline, they'll have enough talent to provide a last hurrah with their creaky roster.
As for reality, the Braves have resiliency to go with their solid starting and relief pitching. They've survived a bunch of early injuries, and they also own more come-from-behind victories than anybody in the NL.
NL Central
The Cardinals lead now, and they'll lead at the end.
The Pirates? You can't take them seriously. Only the Cards have a better record in baseball than the Bucs, but here is part of the Pirates' problem: They are in the same division with the Cardinals. In addition, haven't we've seen all of this before with Pittsburgh -- like last season and the season before that? Yep, and the Bucs are off to another prolific start before the All-Star break (yawn), but this is their most gifted roster yet.
Still, until the Pirates prove they actually can keep from collapsing during the second half of a season for the first time since -- oh, say, 1992, which is the last time they had a winning year -- you have to go with the Cardinals.
Even though the Cards slumped in late June, they've rebounded to become what they appeared to be during the opening two months of the season: Unbeatable. They haven't a glaring weakness despite a pitching staff flooded with rookies. Plus, like the Braves, the Cardinals perfected the art of overcoming injuries, including those to shortstop Rafael Furcal and starter Chris Carpenter.
What about the Reds, you say? They're solid. Solid enough to become the top Wild Card team in the NL, but not enough to overcome the Cards.
NL West
The D-backs lead now, but the Dodgers will lead at the end.
I'm sure you saw that coming. Just like many saw the return from the ashes in recent weeks of this underachieving yet absolutely loaded NL bunch from Los Angeles. To paraphrase the famous tirade by former NFL coach Dennis Green, the Dodgers are just about who we thought they were.
To be fair, the Dodgers did have a bunch of injuries, but when you spent more than $220 million to build a roster, nobody cares about your aches and pains. They want results, and the results finally are coming for a bunch that has reached .500 at 47-47 after a wretched opening stretch.
As much as Yasiel Puig has zoomed out of nowhere to help the Dodgers with his bat, arm and glove, the return of former All-Star shortstop Hanley Ramirez from injury has propelled them more. They've always had a Clayton Kershaw-led pitching staff to justify their spending all of those big bucks. Sort of. And speaking of those big bucks, what should be scary to the rest of the division is that the bosses around Dodger Stadium have deep enough pockets to spend even bigger bucks. They'll likely do whatever they can the rest of the way to get whatever else they need to surge past their mediocre competitors.
I know. The D-backs' lead is only 2 1/2 games, and the Rockies, Giants and Padres are within six games of the Dodgers. It's just that none of those teams have the Dodgers' bank account.
NL Wild Cards
The Reds will grab the top spot with all of their All-Stars and near All-Stars, and the Nationals will unleash a mighty streak before long to give them that second spot.
That's right … no Pirates postseason … again.
American League East
The Red Sox lead now, and they will lead at the end.
Courtesy of David Ortiz and Dustin Pedroia, Boston is proving its slide toward oblivion during the past couple of years was a fluke. The Red Sox's lost team chemistry is back. They also don't have to worry about a Yankees team that remains mostly a toothless threat since it has lacked the bulk of its stars (Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Mark Teixeira, Curtis Granderson) this season.
No question, the Rays will push hard the rest of the way with their splendid combination of pitching and managing (Joe Maddon), but they can't hit like the Red Sox.
Nobody can.
Among other things, Boston leads the Major Leagues in runs scored, RBIs and on-base percentage, and the Sox are second in batting average and slugging percentage.
Here's the other thing: Clay Buchholz is coming back. The right-hander has been on the disabled list since early June with a neck strain, and when he returns, it will equate to Boston trading for a pitcher with a 9-0 record and 1.71 ERA.
Even though the Blue Jays are playing better after a season of struggle, they remain a last-place team by 5 1/2 games. And the Orioles nearly hit as well as the Red Sox, but only the Astros and the Twins have a worse team ERA in baseball than Baltimore's 4.39.
Case closed.
AL Central
The Tigers lead now, and they'll lead at the end.
See a theme going here?
The Indians are just 1 1/2 games behind the Tigers, but don't blink. If you do, it will be the last time the rest of the year you'll see Cleveland this close to the top of the division. That's because Detroit is about to explode.
No, really, the Tigers are, and they'll do it this time after threatening to do so all season.
Not only does Detroit have baseball's best player, Miguel Cabrera, within striking distance of obtaining back-to-back Triple Crowns for the first time in baseball history, but Torii Hunter is having a renaissance season. Plus, Prince Fielder is pretty good, and so are other Tigers when it comes to hitting and pitching.
That Detroit pitching features Justin Verlander, owner of two no-hitters and nearly a bunch of other ones, and Max Scherzer, who started Tuesday night's All-Star Game for the AL after accumulating a 13-1 record and a 3.19 ERA during the first half.
The Tigers also have future Hall of Fame manager Jim Leyland. Now if only Detroit had a closer. No worries, at least not from its division.
AL West
The Athletics lead now, but the Rangers will lead at the end.
And, no, it doesn't matter that Oakland is pretty good, and that Texas trails by two games, and that these are many of the same A's who caught and passed many of these same Rangers down the stretch lasst season to win the division.
This is a different season, and the Rangers are flashing signs of resembling the Braves when it comes to resiliency. For instance: They lost veterans Josh Hamilton and Michael Young during the offseason. Even so, they've remained vibrant enough to remain in contention to reach a third World Series in four years -- with much help from super pitcher Yu Darvish (8-4, 3.02 ERA before going on the disabled list with a shoulder strain) and slugger Adrian Beltre (.316 batting average, 21 homers, 55 RBIs).
Nobody else in the division matters, not even the loaded Angels, who keep hinting at showing a pulse during the second half after a terrible start.
AL Wild Cards
You can't ignore what the Rays are doing. They rank 11th in the Major Leagues in ERA, ninth in batting average, second in fielding percentage and first in overcoming an awful home ballpark.
The A's won't win the AL West, but they'll pitch and claw their way to the AL's second Wild Card spot.

Magical Monday - Color Challenge w/ metal
Well, that's it for the challenge and these next two cards I made for a few of my girlfriends that had birthdays. Of course they are late birthday cards, but I am telling you my time just is flying these days and I just can't seem to get ahead of it with all I have to still accomplish. ((big sigh)) Anyways.... enough whining, this first image is "Designer Cupcake" by Paper Cupcake Stamps and can be found in my store here. I must say I am satisfied with both these cards. I mean after all who doesn't love a good cupcake?!?
This image is called "Magnolia Cupcakes" and it too can be found at my store Paper Cupcakes.
May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day. May songbirds serenade you every step along the way. May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that's always blue. And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.

« Ed. Trust Slams NCLB Waivers for Neglecting At-Risk Students | Main | Five Important Questions About NCLB Waiver Implementation »
Waivers and ESEA Renewal Get Hard Look From Senators
Now that the Obama administration has issued more than 30 waivers to help states get relief from parts of the No Child Left Behind Act, should Congress decide to get moving on the long-overdue reauthorization of the law, or step back for a while and allow waivers to take hold in states, and then learn from them? And which policies put in place by the waivers should lawmakers incorporate into a new version of the law?
Those were the central question facing lawmakers on the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee at hearing on the waiver plans today.
It's clear that U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, the top Republican on the Senate education committee, seems to think the U.S. Department of Education has overstepped its bounds in the waiver process. He held up a copy of Tennesse's waiver document—which is about as thick as a dictionary—and said that the waiver process has become a sort of Inside Washington version of the children's game "Mother May I?" with states begging the department for leeway.
"This simple waiver authority has turned into a conditional waiver with the [Education] Secretary having more authority to make decisions that in my view should be made locally by state and local governments," said Alexander.
For instance, he said, the administration "pretty well wrote the law" on teacher evaluation, since the waivers call for states to evaluate educators based in part on student outcomes. That's something Alexander—and plenty of Democrats—do not want to see in reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, the current version of which is the NCLB law.
Alexander acknowledged, however, that Congress had dropped the ball on reauthorizing the law, which is more than five years overdue.
U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, who testified at the hearing, agreed, and essentially laid the blame for the waivers at lawmakers' feet, saying he and his staff spent hundreds of hours pushing lawmakers to act, which turned out to be "fruitless."
"I came up and met with you repeatedly to try to push a strong" reauthorization, Duncan said. Issuing waivers instead was "always, always our Plan B." He said he stands ready to work with Congress on legislation. But first, lawmakers need to get over the dysfunction that has plagued them on just about every issue, including K-12 policy, according to Duncan.
Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, head of the committee, was a lot softer on the waivers. He kicked things off by thanking Duncan for "stepping into the breach" when Congress didn't act. He likes, for example, that the waivers push states to test students in subjects other than reading and math. (Not every state is using other subjects, but some are.)
But he's got big concerns about so-called "supersubgroups" which allow states to group together students with disabilities, English-language learners, and others. Supersubgroups weren't part of the NCLB law, which required states to break out the performance of particular groups of students, including English-learners, racial minorities, and students in special education. But a number of states have included supersubgroups in their waiver plans.
Duncan emphasized that super subgroups can actually be helpful for some students, including those in special education, because some of them weren't counted under a state's "n" size and were therefore invisible under accountability plans. (N size is essentially the number of students a school has to have in a particular group—such as racial minorities—in order to get counted under a state's accountability plan. Harkin expressed concerns about this earlier.)
Some senators indicated that they are pretty happy with how their states have fared under the waivers, including Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., whose state dreamed up a new way of tracking individual student progress. And, in a surprise statement, Harkin said he agreed with Duncan's decision to deny Iowa's waiver, which he said "just wasn't good." (Iowa's state chief, Jason Glass, disagrees.)
But Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said his state hadn't had as good an experience. The waivers he said, have created uncertainty in his state and left Kansas in "regulatory purgatory."
Witnesses on a second panel were generally divided on what should happen next.
Two state chiefs who testified—Kentucky's Terry Holliday and New York's John King—said the waivers aren't their first choice; they would much rather see a reauthorization sooner rather than later. An honest-to-goodness reauthorization offers predictability for states, they said.
But some good things have come out of the waivers, in their view. For instance, Holliday said the waiver made it easier for his state to transition to the Common Core State Standards, which have been adopted by 46 states and the District of Columbia. Kentucky is arguably the farthest along on implementation of the standards.
Kati Haycock, the president of the Education Trust, which advocates for disadvantaged and minority children, had some really big concerns about how, in her view, the waivers have obscured the performance of most students. By putting focus only on the absolute worst-performing schools, the waivers have essentially let states decide how to handle the other 85 percent she said. That doesn't always lead to great outcomes for students, she added. Way more information in this great report released today by the Education Trust.
Andrew Smarick of Bellwether Education Partners, a nonprofit group based in Washington, said, basically, that the waivers should be given a chance to take hold before Congress decides to upset the apple cart with a brand new law. He said his experience, until recently, as the second-in-command in the New Jersey Department of Education made him realize that swift changes in federal policy can have unintended consequences for states. That's a different tack from what most folks in Congress have been saying, as well as many state chiefs who want the predictability they say a real reauthorization will offer, as opposed to temporary waivers.
Another tidbit: Alexander asked Duncan point-blank whether he is considering waivers for districts in states that have decided not to apply for the department's waivers, but got turned down (for instance, California). Duncan said he'd much rather work with states on the waivers and will make a decision about district waivers down the road. In fact, however, an Education Department official said just last month that the department is considering a special ESEA waiver for eight Golden State districts.
So what's happens next? In an interview after the hearing, Harkin said it was too early to say. He's not sure just yet if he wants to have more hearings, or get going on a bill. And he said that while elements of the committee's 2011 ESEA renewal bill are likely to inform the new version, the panel also will likely take into account concerns it heard about that bill. (He didn't say this, but many in the disability community, which is close with Harkin, didn't like that legislation one bit.)
"It's a new Congress," he said. "I think we need to make a fresh start on it," possibly incorporating some of the ideas states have put into the waivers.

Gone are the days when a mobile phone's sole purpose was to make phone calls. These days, mobile phones come equipped with a vast array of features, which makes it very difficult to choose an ideal mobile phone to suit your needs. This guide will help you determine how to buy the right mobile phone.
The first way to filter out a lot of mobile phones is to set a budget. Since most people do not have an unlimited budget, they can remove any phones they cannot afford from their options. Once you have done this, you will be left with a smaller pool of phones to choose from.
The next step is to determine what exactly your level of use would be. Many people use their mobile phones for only texting and talking. All phones come equipped with the ability to send and receive both calls and text messages, so if you are one of those people, you should pick a phone on the basis of durability and price.
However, if you are among the growing group of people who seek the ability to capture photographs and record videos with your new mobile phones, or if you wish to download apps to cater to almost anything, you will need to do a lot of research to find your ideal phone. This research process begins with deciding which technology you want.
There are a number of mobile phone operating systems available to choose from. These include, but are not limited to Apple's iOS technology, Google's Android technology, Accenture's Symbian technology, Microsoft's Windows technology and Research in Motion's Blackberry technology. There is extensive information available on the pros and cons of each of these systems.
Currently, Android and iOS are the two most popular operating systems in use. If you end up choosing iOs, your decision is likely to get a lot easier, since only phones developed by Apple run on this technology. However, if you opt for the Android operating system, picking a phone can become much more challenging since there are a lot of manufacturers that have embedded it in their phones.
At the end of the day, a phone should be considered as a long term investment. You should aim to get maximum use out of your phone at a minimal price. Factors such as price, features, style, technology, brand name and warranty should all play a part in determining which mobile phone suits you perfectly.

Mariners Care swings against cystic fibrosis
Annual golf tournament, events expected to raise as much as $200,000
SNOQUALMIE, Wash. -- Jonathan Flessner loves going to Mariners games, he has his whole life.
Still, there's nothing better than when the team comes to him, when Flessner joins some of his favorite players each year to take part in the Mariners Care Golf Tournament to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The 2013 iteration of the 28-year old annual tournament was held on Tuesday at TPC Snoqualmie Ridge golf course.
The event, held annually since 1986, has raised over $4.87 million to help find a cure for cystic fibrosis, a fatal disease afflicting children and young adults.
Flessner, who was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis as a 2-month-old baby on May 1, 1989, was 5 years old when he started participating in the Mariners Care tournament. It's a can't-miss opportunity for the baseball fan; a chance to work hand-in-hand with his big league heroes to fight his illness.
"The man [the professional athlete] really matches the perception for so many of the guys that come out here. It makes a big impact to see them and see that they're role models. With cystic fibrosis it's a lot about compliance and doing your medicine," said Flessner, who spent 30 minutes that morning taking inhaled antibiotics.
"To see all the hard work they do, it's similar to the hard work I have to do keeping my treatments up and everything like that. It's cool."
Jonathan's father, Paul, took an early and active role in combating cystic fibrosis after his son's diagnosis. Working on both the research and fundraising side, Paul Flessner is well aware of the importance of the money raised by the golf tournament, as well as the post-tournament dinner featuring live and silent auctions that organizers expect to raise as much as $200,000.
Still, he says the most important thing the players can do isn't to raise money, it's to simply show up.
"The Mariners have a ton of positive role models, for them to come out here and share their day and get the kids excited about staying positive," Paul Flessner said. "A big part of any illness is to be positive and a chronic illness can wear you down. To see your idols, and play golf with them, [Jonathan] looks forward to this all year long."
First baseman Justin Smoak and outfielder Raul Ibanez hosted the tournament, soliciting their teammates to come out and support the cause. It's never much of a challenge for the hosts, as a number of teammates are always eager to sign up.
"I think we're all excited to finally get a day off here at home, and there's nothing better than spending it out here playing golf for a good cause," Smoak said. "I've been a part of it the past two or three years now and to be able to come out here and raise money for cystic fibrosis, and see how it affects the families and the kids, we're trying to help. So it's always definitely fun to get out here."
By doing so, Ibanez and Smoak join the ranks of former Seattle players like Jay Buhner, Randy Johnson and more who have helped organize the event.
We don't get many off days, especially in the Pacific Northwest," Ibanez said. "For the teammates and coaches to come out and support this event and all these great people, I think it's a beautiful thing and a beautiful cause."
"They always get some leaders in the clubhouse that go out to their teammates and say, 'this is why we're doing it,'" said Harley Franco, who is the CEO of Harley Marine Enterprises, the event's primary sponsor. "You've got to have some leaders. Every generation there's a new team leader that recognizes and identifies that this is very important."
Because of that leadership, as well as the support and dedication of families like the Flessner's, the tournament has had a great deal of success, raising nearly $5 million for the foundation since its inception in 1986. That money goes to researching medications and antibiotics to help those with cystic fibrosis deal with the symptoms, as well as searching for a cure.
"We have a continuing need to develop new treatments," Jonathan Flessner explained. "Treatments that did work once upon a time, the body becomes resistant to those. That's why the work that the foundation does is never over and it's important we continue progressing."
As a yardstick for success, however, all agreed that the amount of money the tournament has raised in those 28 years is secondary. Since the Mariners first partnered with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation nearly 28 years ago, the life expectancy for someone struggling with the disease has nearly doubled, from approximately 18 years old, to nearly 40.

Main Content
410 IAC 7-21 Section 47 - Acidified Foods
A wholesale food establishment that processes acidified foods shall employ appropriate quality control procedures to ensure that finished foods do not present a health hazard as follows:
All operators of processing and packaging systems shall be under the operating supervision of a person who has:
attended a school giving instruction in food-handling techniques, food-protection principles, personal hygiene and plant sanitation practices, pH controls and critical factors in acidification; and
been identified by that school as having satisfactorily completed the prescribed course of instruction. A U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sponsored Better Processing Control School is an approved school. Other equivalent schools approved by the department may be attended. The department shall consider students who have satisfactorily completed required portions of the school to be in compliance with the requirement of this subdivision.
Acidified foods shall be manufactured, processed, and packaged so that a finished equilibrium pH value of 4.6 or lower is achieved within the time designated in the scheduled process and maintained in all finished foods. Manufacturing shall be in accordance with the scheduled process. Acidified foods shall be thermally processed to an extent that is sufficient to destroy the vegetative cells of microorganisms of public health significance and those of nonhealth significance, such as yeast and mold, capable of reproducing in the food under the conditions in which the food is stored, distributed, retailed and held by the user. FDA approved preservatives may be used to inhibit reproduction of microorganisms of nonhealth significance in lieu of thermal processing.
Sufficient control, including frequent testing and recording of results, shall be exercised so that the finished equilibrium pH values for acidified foods are not higher than 4.6. Measurement of acidity of foods in process may be made by potentiometric methods, titratable acidity, or colorimetric methods. If the finished equilibrium pH of the food is above 4.0, the measurement of the finished equilibrium pH shall be by a potentiometric method, and the in-process measurements by titration or colorimetry shall be related to the finished equilibrium pH. If the finished equilibrium pH is 4.0 or below, then the measurement of acidity of the final product may be made by any suitable method. When food ingredients have been subjected to lye, lime, or similar high pH materials, they may alter the pH of the product.
Procedures for acidification to attain acceptable equilibrium pH levels in the final food include, but are not limited to, the following:
Blanching of the food ingredients in acidified aqueous solutions.
Immersion of the blanched food in acid solutions. Although immersion of food in an acid solution is a satisfactory method for acidification, process controls must be taken to ensure that the acid concentration is properly maintained.
Direct batch acidification, which can be achieved by adding a known amount of an acid solution to a specified amount of food during acidification.
Direct addition of a predetermined amount of acid to individual containers during production. Liquid acids are generally more effective than solid or pelleted acids. Process controls must be taken to ensure that the proper amount of acid is added to each container.
Addition of acid foods to low-acid foods in controlled proportions to conform to specific formulations.
Testing and examinations of containers shall occur often enough to ensure that the container suitably protects the food from leakage or contamination.
pH meters shall be standardized to get an accurate pH measurement. The directions for standardization and storage supplied by the manufacturer of the equipment shall be followed.
Each container or product shall be marked with an identifying code permanently visible to the naked eye. If the container does not permit the code to be embossed or inked, the label may be legibly perforated or otherwise marked, as long as the label is securely affixed to the product container. The required identification shall specify in code the wholesale food establishment where the product was packed, the product contained therein, and the year, day, and period during which it was packed. The packing period code shall be changed often enough to enable ready identification of lots during their sale and distribution. Codes may be changed periodically on one (1) of the following bases:
Intervals of four (4) to five (5) hours.
Personnel shift changes.
Batches, as long as the containers constituting the batch do not represent those processed during more than one (1) personnel shift.
A qualified person who has expert knowledge acquired through appropriate training and experience in the acidification and processing of acidified foods shall establish the scheduled process and be considered a processing authority. A written document or published paper prepared by experts in acidified food processing, such as the "Ball Canning Book," may qualify. Any modifications to a process listed in a document or paper shall be substantiated by a qualified person and that person shall be listed as the processing authority. Copies of the scheduled process shall be kept at the facility.
Whenever any process operation deviates from the scheduled process for any acidified
food and/or the equilibrium pH of the finished product is higher than 4.6, the commercial processor of the acidified food shall do any of the following:
Fully reprocess that portion of the food by a process established by a competent processing authority as effective to ensure a safe product.
Thermally process the food as a low-acid food under 21 CFR 113.
Set aside that portion of the food involved for further evaluation as to any potential public health significance. The evaluation shall be made by a competent processing authority and shall be in accordance with procedures recognized by competent processing authorities as being adequate to detect any potential hazard to public health. Unless the evaluation demonstrates that the food has undergone a process that has rendered it safe, the food set aside shall either be fully reprocessed to render it safe, or be destroyed. A record shall be made of the procedures used in the evaluation and the results. Either upon completion of full reprocessing and the attainment of a safe food, or after the determination that no significant microorganisms for public health hazard exists, that portion of the food involved may be shipped in normal distribution. Otherwise, the portion of the food involved shall be destroyed
Records shall be maintained of examinations of raw materials, packaging materials and finished products and of suppliers' guarantees or certifications that verify compliance with this regulation.
Processing and production records showing adherence to scheduled processes, including records of pH measurements and other critical factors intended to ensure a safe product, shall be maintained and shall contain sufficient additional information such as product code, date, container size and product, to permit a public health hazard evaluation of the processes applied to each lot, batch, or other portion of production.
Records shall be kept of all departures from scheduled processes having a possible bearing on public health or the safety of the food. The records shall delineate the action taken and the final disposition of the product involved.
Records shall be maintained identifying initial distribution of the finished product to facilitate, when necessary, the segregation of specific food lots that may have become contaminated or otherwise unfit for their intended use.
If a processor makes an electronic record of pH by connection of the pH meter to a computer or by manually keying the pH values into a computer as the primary record, then that record is subject to 21 CFR 11.
Copies of all records provided for in subdivisions (10) through (14) shall be retained at the processing plant or other reasonable, accessible location for a period of three (3) years from the date of manufacture.

Alienate Your Female Customers? Pepsi Has An App For That
Update: See our follow-up post with response from AMP and PepsiCo.
Pepsi's latest foray into social media is certainly bold and controversial, but does it go too far?
The company recently launched an iPhone application [iTunes link] for its AMP energy drink called "before you score," with "score" meaning (to put it in the most subtle of terms) having a successful night with a woman.
Beyond the premise of the app being rather risqué, it's when you drill down to the specifics that it becomes much more, breaking women down into 24 types and suggesting "lines" to lure each one of them. If "successful," the app also encourages users to brag about it over email, or even on Facebook or Twitter. Here's AMP's demo:
Now, guy-centric marketing is nothing new for AMP, who often promotes itself through male dominated extreme sports (formerly, it was known as Mountain Dew AMP). The ads are also somewhat reminiscent of AXE, who insinuates in much of their advertising that its products will help you with members of the opposite sex.
But that's simply a (far-fetched, but whatever) product claim. Here, AMP has actually built features into its application that make it seem one can systematically "score" by exploiting women's naivety. Beyond that, they actively encourage users to promote such conquests through social media.
Mind you, the app is obviously targeted for "dudes," many of whom probably won't have a problem with it, but many of the women who have caught wind of "before you score" clearly do (see the comments on Jezebel or YouTube for example).
Pepsi certainly seems on its way to creating a lot of buzz – but whether or not that buzz turns into something very negative and becomes a "what were you thinking?" social media fiasco is something to watch for. Meanwhile, let us know in the comments if you think this ad is clever marketing that appeals to AMP's customers, or something that goes too far and could have big ramifications for AMP's parent company.

A Chance to Change Lives
Jan. 30, 2014
ST. LOUIS – When Laura (McKinney) Axtetter was 12 years old, China first began allowing
international adoptions. A news story on Chinese orphanages affected Axtetter so deeply
that she made it her goal to work with children in Chinese orphanages.
"I knew at that point that I wanted to do something to help the orphans in China," said Axtetter. "For 20 years I have wanted to be involved in this cause, but I had no idea how to get involved."
That all changed in 2011, when Axtetter's began working on her master's degree at Webster in Applied Educational Psychology. She heard about the program from Deborah Stiles, a professor in the School of Education.
"This major offered a combination of my three main educational interests," said Axtetter. "It focused on the psychology of teaching and global outreach. I was excited about the opportunity for research as well as the opportunity to obtain credentials in psycho-educational assessment."
She was able to combine her interest in child development and psychology and her passion for the improvement of Chinese orphanages through the program. Her thesis focuses on the development of female Chinese adoptees in transracial families. It was during the research of this paper in 2013 that she learned about a trip that A Helping Hand Adoption Agency planned to take to China.
"The agency had just been given the opportunity to team up with an orphanage in China through the China Center for Child Welfare and Adoption One-to-One program," said Axtetter. "This program matches adoption agencies with specific orphanages so that the agency is able to establish close working relationships with the orphanage staff, as well as provide support and advocacy for children it the orphanage. One focus of the agency is to help find families for their children with special needs."
The adoption agency was paired with a small orphanage in Beiliu City, in southern China. Axtetter forwarded her educational background and thesis abstract to the agency and received word a few days later that she would take part in the travel group along with another educator, two physical therapists, an occupational therapist and others. The team would work to improve the living conditions at the orphanage.
"It's hard to fathom the conditions and circumstances these children endure on a daily basis," she said. "With so many under the care of only two caregivers per shift, individual interaction is extremely limited. With the exception of one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon, young children spend all of their day in bed. They don't have a chance to experience even the simplest toys and activities that we take for granted in America."
The team from A Helping Hand Adoption Agency completed a physical assessment of each child and also donated thousands of dollars worth of rehabilitation equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, braces, special shoes and chairs.
"We were able to work with the caregivers to show them how to use the equipment and explain the benefits. It was so exciting when we arrived on our second day to find that the caregivers had already placed several children in the corner chair or on wedges. This was a great improvement over the previous day when the children with severe disabilities had been laying on the floor or in their beds. To us, this meant the caregivers were listening, observing and learning from us – they were showing us that they wanted to make improvements for the children."
Axtetter said that the work that they provided could mean that more of the children will be available for adoption.
"The number of adoptions had greatly declined over the past several years as more of the children living in the orphanage had been categorized as special needs," said Axtetter. "Through our assessments with the children, we were able to convince the directors that many of the children should have their files prepared for adoption. As a direct result of our time there, six files are being prepared, meaning that if all of the paperwork goes through, six children will be eligible for adoption very soon. Twelve more children are expected to be added to that list in the near future – hopefully resulting in the adoption of 18 children."
Axtetter said that the research she's done during the Applied Educational Psychology
program was very helpful during the trip and she feels she was able to use what she's
learned at Webster University to help make a difference.
"My research gave me an understanding of the effects institutionalization has on children. I was able to interact with the children in a way that was supportive and appropriate for their level of physical and social emotional development."
Deborah Stiles, coordinator of the Applied Educational Psychology program at Webster says that this combination of research and hands-on experience is the core of the program.
"We apply knowledge and we contribute," said Stiles. "Applied Educational Psychology students are contributing to the 'knowledge base' in the fields of educational psychology and school psychology. The students are integrating research and practical experience to meet the diverse needs of children all over the world."
Axtetter said that this experience is just the beginning of her work. She plans to go back to China and also speaks to classes at Webster and outside groups hoping to encourage others to help.
"These are all things that I never would have done without the confidence that my professors have shown in me. Their belief in me made me believe in myself enough to step outside of my comfort zone and achieve my dreams. Working in the orphanages of China seemed like an unattainable goal a few years ago. Grad school opened doors that changed my life forever."

It will be hard to surprise you again for the next Cargosoft game.
You're joking, aren't you?
The next Cargosoft project is a database software, very addictive.
Sample during the loading of the game at FDC full speed.
Your loader will be slower than amsdos with fragmented files
Anyway it's possible to be faster with sector 6 format as you did not specify if the floppy has to be written by a cpc. Then you have one kb more data (+20%) in the exact same time.
It is probably possible to do like you say if you are able to start the writing of your unique sector in "mid" track. I know a real-cpc technique to do that, but an Amiga may be able to do it more simply. So let's pretend you can shift sectors like I did for Orion Prime and Imperial Mahjong, but for size-6 sectors.BUT: even if you have a nice track layout, since you actually encode more data than needed (because size 6), you will read real data + garbage data. So there won't be, I think, any gain of speed. Unless you stop reading after a certain amount of read data (by provoking an overrun), but then it's really not clean.
So to sum up: it's nice for the technical challenge, but I don't think you will have real benefits for sooo much trouble.
What bug are you talking about? The checksum when reading will never be right, so the result will be an error.
Mmmh, I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean that, after formatting and WITHOUT writing some sectors, you can read all the data by making a ReadTrack of a size-6 sector?

Investors looking for good news found it Friday as JPMorgan and Wells Fargo both reported double-digit profits on the finance sector's first day of third-quarter 2012 earnings releases.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), often thought of as a bellwether of how both the economy and other banks are performing, saw quarterly profits rise 34% on income of $5.7 billion over the prior year's $4.3 billion, with earnings per share of $1.40 versus $1.02 a year ago. The results surprised analysts, who expected EPS of $1.24, and were due to strength in core lending, including mortgages, and commercial loans.
New home loans and refinancing totaled $47 billion at JPM in Q3, up 29% from last year. Mortgage unit earnings were 57% higher.
Wells Fargo (WFC) reported record quarterly net income of $4.9 billion, up 22% from last year's $4.1 billion, also thanks to increased lending, for a total of $21.2 billion in revenues. The record profits reflected 11 straight quarters of gains. EPS came in at $0.88 versus analysts' expectations of $0.87.
JPMorgan Chairman and Chief Executive Jamie Dimon (left) credited continued momentum in all of the bank's businesses, including a 9% rise in consumer and business banking.
"We believe the housing market has turned the corner," Dimon said in a statement. "In our mortgage banking business, we were encouraged that credit trends continued to modestly improve, and, as a result, the firm reduced the related loan loss reserves by $900 million. Despite this improvement, the absolute level of charge-offs remains elevated. We also expect to see high default-related expense for a while longer."
Wells, which is the largest mortgage lender in the United States, continued to generate growth across its diversified set of businesses, said Chairman and CEO John Stumpf in a statement.
"In the third quarter, core loans grew by $11.9 billion and we saw continued strength in our mortgage and deposit businesses," Stumpf said. "We remained diligent in managing costs and continued to have strong underlying credit performance as our loss mitigation efforts and the low interest rate environment helped improve affordability for our customers."
Linda Duessel, senior equity strategist and senior client portfolio manager at Federated Investors, also noted that the U.S. housing situation is improving.
Speaking about the U.S. economy and investment strategies at the 2012 Raymond James Women's Symposium on Friday in St. Pete Beach, Fla., Duessel remarked during the Q&A that JPMorgan fared well partly thanks to mortgage-backed securities.
While acknowledging that she hadn't followed the JPM and WFC results specifically, Duessel did say that Federated since the beginning of the year has predicted that the S&P 500 would jump to 1450 sometime in the third quarter from 1257 in early 2012, and that prediction came true.
"The breadth of the advance in stocks has gotten better in this piece of the rally," Duessel said.
Suggesting the sources of JPMorgan and Wells' strength, she noted that as weak as the economy has been, and despite recession risk in 2013, both housing and dividend stocks have been bright spots in the last quarter.
"We know how to invest in malaise," Duessel said. "It's the dividend strategy."
