Westboro to picket Milwaukee area churches, Miller Park
Tom Murray
Tom Murray reportsPhoto: Video by tmj4.com
MILWAUKEE- A controversial congregation infamous for protesting soldiers' funerals is planning demonstrations at several of Wisconsin's largest churches this Sunday, along with the State Capitol and Miller Park next week.
Rachel Hockenbarger is a member of Westboro Baptist Church and says she will be among the picketers traveling to Milwaukee.
"You're going to see some bright and colorful signs, being held in the hands of some sincere, really the only sincere humans in this nation," Hockenbarger told TODAY'S TMJ4 reporter Tom Murray. "The churches are to blame specifically for the destruction that's upon America right now."
According to its website, Westboro scheduled protests at seven Milwaukee area churches Sunday morning: Hales Corners Lutheran, Elmbrook Church in Brookfield, Basilica of St. Josaphat in Milwaukee, Grace Lutheran in Milwaukee, Oak Creek Assembly of God, Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist downtown and Christian Faith Fellowship Church of God in Milwaukee.
A message on the Hales Corners Lutheran Church's website urges churchgoers to 'just smile, be friendly and don't get caught up in their rhetoric.'
Hales Corners police are also preparing for the picket.
"An area will be designated for the group to have their demonstration," Lt. Steven Murphy wrote in an email. "Extra personnel will be assigned to provide a safe and secure environment for all citizens."
Most church leaders are urging members to peacefully ignore the Westboro demonstration.
"They try to get people upset. That's their whole goal," said Oak Creek Assembly of God spokesperson Christine Jacobs. "The Bible says we are to live in peace with everyone, that we are to do everything in love. That's our approach."
Chris Krasovich wants to send a different message. She is using Facebook to organize a counter-protest.
"I think doing nothing is a mistake," Krasovich said. "I think we have a real opportunity to come out and express what we as people of faith, as people who are members of the Milwaukee community hold dear."
Westboro is also planning to protest at Miller Park and the Wisconsin State Capitol next week.

Last week, Santa Rosa County announced the locations of five recycling sites where residents can dispose of their live Christmas trees. The trees must be taken to the site by Monday, Feb. 28. Residents are asked to place trees in the designated area identified by signage and not in front of the recycling containers. The sites include:
- Tiger Point recreation area in Gulf Breeze, east of WalMart
- Quintette recycle area at the Five Points Intersection
- Gulf Power recycle area on East Spencer Field Road
- Clean Community System on Park Avenue
- Jay Transfer Station on Transfer Station Road
The trees will be chipped and offered as free mulch at Clean Community System in Milton at a later date to be announced.
In addition to announcing the sites for tree disposal, county officials urged residents to not cut up and burn their trees in a home fireplace, as burning evergreens release tar and creosol, which can ignite and cause a chimney fire.
Residents are reminded that recycle areas are not disposal areas for furniture or household garbage that is not sorted recyclable material. Santa Rosa County recycle sites accept glass, metal, plastic containers, paper and cardboard. A list of all of Santa Rosa County's recycling points and accepted materials can be found online at www.santarosa.fl.gov/recycle.

Weather and Science Day 2011 – Erupting Clouds, Giant Smoke Rings and Exploding Trash Cans Captivate Huge Audience
From the moment the gates opened at 9:30 AM, there was an air of excitement that ran through Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies. The event was billed as the largest hands-on science show ever presented in Colorado… or maybe the country for that matter. In 2009, the Colorado Rockies teamed up with 9News KUSA-TV and Steve Spangler Science to produce the first annual Weather and Science Day, which drew a crowd of 5,400 and earned the Spangler team their first Guinness World Record for the World's Largest Physics Lesson.
Ticket sales to this year's event were in excess of 10,000, making this a real challenge for the Steve Spangler Science team. "When we originally sat down and starting planning the event with Steve, he challenged us to help him create something more than a sit-and-watch show," explained Carly Reed, special event coordinator at Steve Spangler Science. "Steve suggested pony rides in the parking lot, but we quickly refocused his creativity to something more doable." The final decision was ambitious,

Slip on some boyfriend jeans and sandals with this muscle tee and you'll look ready to take on the world. With the classic California Flag print and a hint of surfer love will have you head over heels for this graphic top. The soft material and cute fit will have you wanting to wear it with every outfit. It fits tighter than a boxy graphic. The sleeve cut is very flattering and shows off your arms.A fall must have tank!

[QUOTE=Ph8;133259]You must have a problem with reading comprehension. I am voting with my wallet. I am buying 4 Roku boxes for Christmas presents instead of 4 Boxee Boxes because I will never know in time for Christmas if Netflix or Vudu are going to run flawlessly on the Boxee Box. And I already have my RMA from Amazon to return the Boxee Box if nothing changes. This are not threads, this are facts. I am sure that I am not the only one making intelligent decisions base on the facts at hand.
And I am getting tired of people defending them because they never give specific dates. That is part of the problem, they never specify anything so by that logic nothing really has to get done.

Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency officers are in charge of a boat crash that took the life of a Georgetown man.
According to officer Ben Davis, the crash occurred about 8:30 p.m. Sunday on the Hiwassee River.
Dale Rose, 65, of Georgetown, was pronounced dead at the scene by medical service personnel, according to Davis.
Davis and other officers returned to the scene Monday to continue their investigation into the surrounding events that might have contributed to the crash. No additional information has been released from the investigation.
The accident occurred near the Highway 58 Boat Dock.
Other boaters on the river had sought shelter during a torrential thunderstorm.
Rose was reportedly driving a bass boat when his vessel collided with a larger boat piloted by Josh Smith, 35, of Cleveland.
Smith and his three passengers were not injured during the collision, according to Davis.
The heavy rainstorm and darkness are believed to be factors in the crash.
Investigation is continuing.

In case you missed it, one of the Pet City bloggers was featured in the Charleston Daily Mail this week.
Brad White was profiled for his role on this blog, for his love of dogs and for his longtime efforts to get dogs adopted through his email network. We're really happy to have him here in Pet City. Here's the full article about him.
A Charleston native who works in his family's financial planning business, The White Planning Group, White learned a couple of important things from his family — a love of animals and the importance of being actively involved in helping your community.
The two have sort of collided in what has become an avocation for White — helping to place dogs that need good homes.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Day Two of the 2008 Bassmaster Classic has the pros leap frogging around in the standings.
What some of the pros had to say after Day One of the 2008 Bassmaster Classic,
Frigid weather greets the anglers on the final morning of the 2008 Bassmaster Classic.
Day Two of the 2008 Bassmaster Classic had some pros sharing the techniques.
BIRMINGHAM — Kalamazoo's Kevin VanDam lived up to his reputation as the "Tiger Woods" of bass fishing, roaring from 19th place into the lead as the Bassmaster Classic heads into today's final round on Lay Lake. In Tiger-like fashion, VanDam put together a rally to catch 19 pounds, 14 ounces Saturday — including the 5 pound, 7 ounce lunker of the day — to take a slim 9-ounce lead with 32 pounds, 15 ounces.
Classic XXXVIII (38), was held Feb. 22-24, 2008 in Lake Hartwell, South Carolina. When Alton Jones motored back into Lake Hartwell's Portman Marina, he was pretty sure he didn't have enough fish in his livewell to win the Bassmaster Classic.
While covering the 2008 Bassmaster Classic DB finds himself surrounded by the sports youngest fans.
Day two weigh-in at the 2008 Bassmaster Classic was rough for some anglers to watch.

Planning on getting a Pelican case for set-up-shop projects, but I'm looking for recommendations for a rugged/padded backpack setup for Scarlet.
Something to support the bare bones run and gun stuff, couple lenses, redvolts, and a well protected Scarlet-X. Any thoughts?
The DSLR packs on B&H seem a bit flimsy, and not sizeable enough for the Scarlet. Thanks in advance guys.

Nov 27, 2012Branson is a beautiful town, with a very unique downtown. If you visit Branson, make sure you take the time to walk the old downtown area. I was there in 2012, right after the tornado had come through, and looking at all the damage, it was very sad and depressing.
- BransonWilliam SoursFirst to ReviewJul 05, 2012
Down there every week buying old cars. They have some of the best shows this side of Nashville. They have something else that you do not want to miss. That is Silver Dollar City. I would recommend that you get a motel close to the shows and walk. You have to drive out to Silver Dollar City, but the traffic isn't that bad. Also, enjoy the two lakes surrounding Branson. Beautiful place for a tourist trap, but I still love it down there every time I go.

City rejects park project
July 23, 2013 — Calling the project poorly planned, the Susanville City Council voted 3-2 Wednesday, July 17 to abandon the proposed Sierra Community Park project and not accept $2.1 million in Proposition 84 grant funding for the facility from the state of California.
Mayor Rod De Boer and councilmembers Brian Wilson and Nicholas McBride voted against a motion to approve a contract amendment with the state's Department of Parks and Recreation while councilmembers Lino Callegari and Cheryl McDonald voted to approve it.
City Administrator Jared Hancock said although the environmental review of the project through the California Environmental Quality Act is still pending, the council approved an environmental review at its last meeting, the design modifications of the project had been completed and the city was ready to sign a construction contract with the state for the project.
Callegari acknowledged there were some concerns about the project, but he said in order to qualify for the Prop. 84 funding it had to meet certain criteria. He said he was "100 percent for the project" and urged the council to approve it "for the young people of Susanville."
Wilson said he uses a city park nearly every day, but he was going to vote against this project.
He noted the council has been split on this project since its inception. The cost of the park as originally proposed was more than $4 million, and changes and revisions to bring the project in at the grant amount marred it beyond repair. He said cutting corners such as not paving the parking lot or installing sidewalks and curbs could eventually cost the city about $1 million, and the city would be "chasing improvements" at the facility for years to come.
He also thought the city's proposed maintenance budget of $40,000 per year was very conservative, and he expected the cost to be much higher.
Besides, Wilson said city residents are much more interested in a swimming pool than a news sports complex.
McBride said he tended to agree with Wilson.
"If (the project had been) planned correctly in the beginning, I'd be all for it," McBride said.
He said many of the changes made to the project such as a dirt parking area that would "violate our own city codes" and not comply with regulations requiring the park be accessible to the handicapped.
De Boer estimated it would cost the city $75,000 to $80,000 per year to maintain the park, and the city would have to keep spending money to make improvements. He also expressed concerns about the changes that had been made to bring the project into line with the amount of grant funding.
Still, Callegari urged his fellow councilmembers to approve the project for the young people who would enjoy the park for years to come. He also said the proposed park and a pool were two entirely separate matters, and the grant funding for the park could not be used to build a pool.
Despite the flaws in the plan, Callegari said the project should move forward as money was available.
"There's nothing in that contract that says you have to go from A to Z," Callegari said. "You have two million, five-hundred thousand dollars to spend. You lay it out, and you build what you can with that amount of money."
He agreed the city has "an obligation" to make the facility handicapped accessible.
And he said once the city refuses the grant funding, the money would go to another city in Southern California.
Back in April 2011, former City Administrator Robert Porfiri announced the city had been awarded a $2.1 million Prop. 84 grant for the proposed sports complex.
According to Porfiri, the city also dedicated $160,000 from the parks mitigation fund for a total project of $2,289,000.
The city was one of 64 selected for funding from a pool of more than 400 applications through the Prop. 84 program.
According to the release, the proposed 17.5-acre park project, located at 925 Sierra Road, would have included a playground for toddlers, a picnic area with barbecues, a stage/amphitheater area, several sport fields (tennis, basketball, volleyball, soccer, football, etc.), a walking path with benches, restrooms and plenty of parking.

Link says money would be put to adding on as it becomes available? Just like skyline park and the skate park? We need more "completed" project.
Looks like three council members did research on the project and voted based on the findings. Lino makes too many decisions based on hopes, dreams, and how the world was eighty years ago. McDonald has little to no input onanything
So the city government is basically telling its youth to go commit vandalism and crime for entertainment. Only in "prison town, USA, does a mentality like this exist!
You are so narrow minded. You need to look at the situation as a whole.
I have a high level, wide, strategic view of Susanville crumbling into a ghetto town.
Far from narrow, I have a broad expansive view from my mountaintop perch.
And yes, I do look down on you!
We will end up putting an electric fence around the city and make it a real prison town.
Change is difficult, but you either change or move away.

(Updated with video)
SYRACUSE -- The case of accused murderer and child rapist David Renz may result in a significant change in the way sealed juvenile records of sex offenses are handled.
State Senator John DeFrancisco has responded to a call by Onondaga County District Attorney Bill Fitzpatrick and Executive Assistant U.S. Attorney John Duncan for a legislative review of procedures for the unsealing of juvenile records prior to bail hearings for alleged sex offenders.
Senator DeFrancisco says he is in the process of drafting legislation that would allow for Family Court Clerks to provide juvenile records to prosecutors. The State Senator says such a law would only apply to accused sex offenders.
"Very few people believe that sex offenders are somehow rehabilitated, it's something that continues indefinitely," Senator DeFrancisco said. "There should be a separate way to get records quickly when a sex offense is being considered by a court... and there's a possibility of a sex offense in the past in somebody's juvenile records."
On March 20th, CNY Central's Jim Kenyon revealed that Renz had been implicated in the sexual abuse of a minor when he was a teenager and that the alleged victim in that case met recently with the District Attorney's office.
The records of Renz's alleged juvenile offense were sealed in Onondaga County Family Court. Those records were not available to police or prosecutors before Federal Magistrate Andrew Baxter released Renz on home confinement with an electronic monitoring device after his arrest on child pornography charges in January.
On March 14th, Renz is accused of cutting off his electronic monitoring ankle bracelet, murdering Lori Bresnahan and raping a 10-year-old girl.
At a news conference announcing a 37 count indictment against Renz on Wednesday, John Duncan told Kenyon, "within the federal system, a defendant is entitled to a bail hearing within 3 days of his arrest, whether you're able to get juvenile records unsealed or not. So that's something the state legislature should contemplate."
District Attorney Bill Fitzpatrick added, "there's no reason in the world why the DA's office, State Police, U.S. Attorney should jump through hoops to find out about what somebody did when they were the precious age of 14, 15 or 16."
Senator DeFrancisco says he could draft and propose his legislation before the state legislature adjourns at the end of June.

NY Times Editorial Urges Obama Administration To Reject Keystone XL Tar Sands Pipeline
The New York Times editorial today calls on the State Department and President Obama to reject the disastrous Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, which it correctly labels the "wrong pipeline for the wrong oil."
The NYT editors point to the environmental impacts of the proposed Keystone XL tar sands pipeline from Alberta to the Texas Gulf Coast, noting the destruction it would cause to Canada's boreal forests, the threats to Midwest drinking water supplies from inevitable spills and accidents, and the climate impacts of supporting the extraction of the dirtiest oil on the planet.
Hillary Clinton's State Department is correctly called to account for its abysmal attempts at drafting an adequate Environmental Impact Statement, which the EPA has labeled "insufficient" both times it has reviewed the document.
In a clear nod to the intense lobbying efforts of the pipeline's proponents, the Times urges Clinton's State Department to judge "the pipeline on the merits, not because of politics or pressure from the Canadian government, big oil and the industry's friends in Congress."
Read the rest of the Times' concise and necessary criticism of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline: "Wrong Pipeline, Wrong Assessment" at the Times' website.

If this pipeline crossing dry prairie states and provinces is not built, they will build one to the pacific coast through virgin rainforest wilderness to a treacherous harbor where tankers are at high risk of running aground, and sell the oil to China. Sorry, we won't learn to live without oil until we run out of it, which will be soon enough. Let's build this pipeline and buy our oil from a friendly neighbor.
The Keystone XL pipeline would go through the Ogalalla aquifer, a source of drinking water for many, many people in those dry prairie states. Would you want heavy, corrosive tarsands oil in your drinking water?
We should learn to live without oil before we poison our land, air and water any more. Humans can adapt better gradually than if we are forced to by sudden emergency which tends to cause many deaths and much damage.
VJ... You go right ahead and cut all oil products out ou your life.
It wont bother me one bit.
However, I am not going to follow you and the rest of the world wont either.
So, as was said above, we will use oil as long as it is available ant then change to something else.
Since ther is only about 500 years worth available, we should have antimatter reactors by the time we run out.
And even if the US Does decide to destroy their energy security by not building the pipeline, China will buy all we can produce and happily let the US decline into insignifigance out ot stupidity.
Any way you slice it, we will sell the oil and nutbars will only ever amount to an annoyance.
You fools, I am a lifelong Albertan and I am sick of the traitors who are poisoning my home and giving away our resources cheap to a bunch of greedy, lying foreign corporations. Alberta will become a desert long before the oil is used up from the effects of stupid selfish greedy people who refuse to face reality.
Your children will curse you for your stupidity.
Besides being hundreds of feet deep, this aquifer is already crisscrossed by other pipelines, and many thousands of miles of asphalt roads gradually leaching oil products, and thousands of sewage systems with varying effectiveness, not to mention millions of acres of agricultural chemical use, and a lot of oil drilling in the Bakken. What makes you think one more project will harm it?

Crown College of Minnesota is unique in being the only bible college in Minnesota. The mission of this type of college is to provide a biblically based education for Christian leadership. Teaching is focused on training lay people for Christian service. Crown is one of only four colleges in the United States affiliated with the Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination.
Sired by a champion pacer and born in 1896, Dan Patch was bred to be a racehorse. At first glance, though, his chances didn't look too good. He had long legs, knobby knees, and worst of all, a sweet disposition—not considered an asset in the hypercompetitive world of harness racing.
Part of a Danish settlement near Tyler, the Danebod church and folk school have been a center of Danish-American life for over a century. Danebod is a Danish word meaning "one who mends or saves the Danes." The Danebod community is home to programs that preserve, teach, and celebrate Danish-American culture on the Minnesota prairie.
While working at Minneapolis's Washburn mills in the late 1870s, William de la Barre became an internationally known hydroelectricity expert and a key player in the development of water power at St. Anthony Falls.
From the 1890s through the 1950s, Frances Densmore researched and recorded the music of American Indians. Through more than twenty books, 200 articles, and some 2,500 Graphophone recordings, she preserved important cultural traditions that might otherwise have been lost. She received honors from Macalester College in St. Paul and the Minnesota Historical Society in the last years of her life.
In December 1891, the Duluth Street Railway Company opened an Incline railway on the right-of-way of Seventh Avenue West. The company had received a charter from the state in 1881 to build a streetcar line for Duluth, and this railway was part of the larger system. The hillside was too steep for a regular rail line, and cable powered lines were often used in similar situations.
The opening of the Duluth Ship Canal in 1871 was a historical turning point for the city of Duluth and the Twin Ports of Duluth and Superior.
Admired for its jewel-like character, the Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range depot at Endion was constructed in 1899. The depot was designed by notable Duluth architect I. Vernon Hill, and it is one of the last small passenger depots of its kind.
Famed author and lecturer Charles Eastman was raised in a traditional Dakota manner until age fifteen, when he entered Euro-American culture at his father's request. He spent the rest of his life moving between American Indian and white American worlds, achieving renown but never financial security.
Seventeenth Minnesota governor Adolph Olson (A.O.) Eberhart lived the classic American story of an immigrant who achieved success through hard work and ability. He graduated at the top of his class at Gustavus Adolphus College and was the youngest state senator in the 33rd legislative session.
From 1906 to the 1960s, Danish-born brothers Valdemar and Soren Egekvist built a model of immigrant enterprise. They applied Old World skills in a New World economy. Their chain of Minneapolis bakery stores ultimately led to nationally distributed baked goods.
In 1865, the officers and men of the Eighth Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment traveled from Fort Snelling to Montana and back. Next, they headed to Tennessee. From there, the regiment moved to Washington, D.C., North Carolina, and finally, back to Minnesota. During that final year of the Civil War, the Eighth claimed to have covered more miles and experienced more variety in its service than any other regiment in the Union Army.
Organized in late 1864, the Eleventh Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment was the last infantry unit to be raised by the state. Though not involved in any major battles, the regiment performed a crucial service that helped to achieve ultimate Union victory.
On August 21, 1860, African American Eliza Winston was freed from her Mississippi slaveholder in a Minneapolis court. After being granted legal freedom, however, Winston was met with white mob violence and had to leave the area, perhaps fleeing to Canada. The event showed that although slavery was illegal in Minnesota, many white Minnesotans supported the practice when it economically benefited them.
In 1871 Minneapolis built the first public waterworks in Minnesota to pump water from the Mississippi River. The city's attempts to provide clean, safe water led to decades of efforts to improve and expand the waterworks.
The botched execution of William Williams was the last in Minnesota. After newspapers broke state law to report on the event, public opinion turned firmly against the death penalty, and it was repealed in 1911.
The Farmers' Alliance in Minnesota thrived from 1886 to 1892. During this time, the organization achieved the most progress toward its political goals in the state. These included greater regulation of the railroad industry as it impacted the wheat market, elimination of irregularities in the grading of wheat, and minimization or elimination of the middleman in the wheat trade.
The Farmers' Holiday Association was formed in 1932. The Midwestern organization successfully fought against farm foreclosures with novel strategies like penny auctions, but unsuccessfully lobbied Congress for a federal system that would pay farmers for their crops based on the cost of production.
In the 1880s, Minnesota farmers saw the need for education but resisted "book farming," or learning how to farm by reading instructional text. Farmers' institutes, lecture series that traveled to rural communities and taught practical farming skills, were popular alternatives in the 1880s through the 1920s.
One of the most colorful characters on the scene in early twentieth century Minnesota was Wilford Hamilton "Captain Billy" Fawcett. He was editor and publisher of a bawdy men's humor magazine called Captain Billy's Whiz Bang. He was also a veteran of two wars, an Olympic athlete, a world traveler, a big-game hunter, and a resort owner.
When the Fergus Falls State Hospital opened its doors on July 29, 1890, it became the first state institution in northern Minnesota for patients considered insane. The hospital had a sprawling campus and large stately buildings, built according to the influential asylum plan developed by Philadelphia physician Thomas Kirkbride in the 1850s.
The Fifth Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment's Civil War service included participation in thirteen campaigns, five sieges and thirty-four battles, including duty on Minnesota's frontier during the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862. They were the last of the state's regiments to form in response to President Lincoln's first call for troops.
The First Battery of Minnesota Light Artillery played a critical role in the first major battle of the Civil War. The performance of its officers and men at Shiloh and elsewhere in the Western Theater gave rise to an enviable service record and added to the young state's prestige.
The First Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment holds a special place in the history of Minnesota. It was the first body of troops raised by the state for Civil War service, and it was among first regiments of any state offered for national service.

June 21, 2011 IS MOBILE SEARCH MARKETING DIFFERENT? [DMA11]
Now that we're finally beginning to realize the rapid growth potential for mobile marketing, we're suddenly being confronted with the need to develop different strategies for it. We've already discovered that web sites need to be optimized for mobile viewing, but is it time to start developing separate search marketing strategies for mobile as well? When consumers are using mobile search, it appears they are more likely to have an immediate action or immediate need in mind. Click-through rates on mobile searches are significantly higher than those for desktop searches. Mobile search queries tend to be shorter and more direct, so keywords need to be developed that match these phrases. This is so different from desktop search that Google even has a mobile keyword selection tool. We also need to take into consideration that mobile searchers may be searching on the run and will want faster results and information. They might not be as inclined as a desktop user to sit and click around a web site. Copy should be tighter to lead to a more immediate call to action. Over 10,000 attendees will discover the latest in mobile advertising and direct marketing at this year's DMA2011 Conference & Exhibition, Oct 1-6 in Boston. Mobile search marketing is a new animal in the direct marketing jungle. Industry professionals can get armed with the latest marketing tools to bring down the really big game at the DMA's intensive post-conference certification on Mobile Marketing.

Is it just me or is there such a "diagnoses" as "feature fatigue"? On more than one occasions I noticed that when I am about 75% though new feature development I am starting to stall and my development rally slows-down. Shouldn't it be the the opposite -- hurry up to push it out the door?
Is this the right place to ask this questions or do I need a shrink? Any other bootstrappers out there that experienced such symptoms?

Reporting in the October issue of STEM CELLS Translational Medicine, researchers at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., think they might have found a low-cost, highly-effective way to detect and then purge at-risk cells during an early stage in the differentiation process.
Durham 9/27/2012 07:50 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)
Scientists Find New Way to Up Safety Factor of Stem Cell Therapy by Causing Contaminated Cells to Purge Themselves
Pluripotent stem cells show great potential in treating various debilitating diseases, but at a risk: during the process of reprogramming the cells so they will grow (differentiate) into the desired tissue, some of their DNA may be damaged causing them to develop into tumors. Researchers have been scrambling to find a way to overcome this huge drawback to an otherwise highly promising therapeutic candidate.
Now, researchers at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., think they might have found an answer. Reporting in the October issue of STEM CELLS Translational Medicine, they detail a low-cost, highly-effective way to detect and then purge at-risk cells during an early stage in the differentiation process.
"Strategies to improve the safety of stem cell therapy have generally focused on separating or depleting damaged cells after the cells have differentiated. However, while this method was able to diminish the number of tumors formed as well as significantly reduce their size, the technical burdens and cost of specialized reagents and equipment needed to do so remain a challenge for widespread clinical applications," says lead investigator Timothy J. Nelson, M.D., Ph.D. He directs the cell biology group within the clinic's Regenerative Strategies team.
Instead, the Mayo team turned to a relatively simple protocol that involves pre-treating cultured stem cells with a genotoxin — an agent that sniffs out gene mutations or chromosomes changes in contaminated cells and kills them — after first priming the cells through the up-regulation of Puma protein, which can be activated to send a series of signals leading to cell suicide. They tested their theory using stem cells taken from a mouse model.
The results showed that not only did the contaminated cells die off, "At the same time, it didn't affect the remaining healthy cells' capability to differentiate nor did it have any negative consequence on their genomic stability," Nelson says. "And it worked on stem cells derived from both natural and bioengineered sources.
"This novel strategy, based on innate mechanisms of pluripotent stem cells, is primed for high-throughput and cost-effective clinical translation."
"The potential for tumor formation has been a significant drawback to therapeutic use of certain cell populations," said Anthony Atala, M.D., Editor of STEM CELLS Translational Medicine and director of the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine. "The strategy outlined in this manuscript shows promise for avoiding the risk of uncontrolled cell growth upon transplantation."

If you're a marketer trying to target and engage the younger generation it looks like interactive mobile and tablet apps are the way to go, as Australian children are using apps more than game consoles these days, with figures doubling in the past 18 months.
The latest 2013 Cartoon Network survey, which looked at the media habits of 1800 children, has revealed that almost 7 in 10 children between the ages of four and 14 now use apps, which is two times the figure from the 2011 survey.

20% of emails sent by Australian brands do not reach the intended inbox, with 2% being sent to spam and the other 18% going missing or being blocked.
This problem gets even worse if the intended reader is a Dodo or Optus subscriber, as only 57% of legitimate email were delivered to these inboxes in 2012.
In contrast, 92% of marketing emails reach their target inbox in New Zealand, with only 8% going missing.

St. John's Psychology Professor Elizabeth N. Brondolo, Ph.D., has garnered academic esteem during the past five years with her cutting-edge system of measuring the effects of racism on the health and well-being of African- and Latino-Americans. Now, with the help of a team of St. John's graduate students, she is applying her methodologies to Asian populations and discovering significant results.
According to her research — and contrary to widely accepted societal beliefs — Asian-Americans are closely related to African- and Latino-Americans in their day-to-day experiences of discrimination. Consequently, their health is threatened in similar ways.
"Discrimination and its influence on health are problems for everyone," says Brondolo, citing hypertension, cardiovascular disease, depression and anxiety as common health effects of racism.
With the assistance of St. John's graduate students Jennifer Atencio, Jasmin Kwok and Jahanara Ullah, Brondolo currently is examining the racism/health relationship among Americans of South-Asian (Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi) and East-Asian (Filipino/Chinese/Japanese) descent. During the past year, the St. John's research team has been working with Asian outpatients at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center and will soon begin testing at Flushing Hospital Medical Center, both in Queens.
"Dr. Brondolo is engaged in some excellent projects here looking at the effects of racism on blood pressure, says Dr. Alan Roth, Chairman of the Department of Family Medicine at Jamaica Hospital. "But on a more general scale, she has added a cultural component to our residency training program that has been very effective. She is opening the minds of an entire field of young educators to racism and medicine, showing them how personal stereotyping and bias can affect their health care delivery."
From New York to Bangkok Recently, Brondolo's research has been stirring interest abroad. Last November, Atencio, a fourth-year doctoral fellow from Queens, attended the International Congress of Behavioral Medicine in Bangkok, Thailand, to present the team's current findings on the effects of racism on Asian-Americans.
"There's a myth out there that says all Asians are healthy and doing well," says Atencio, suggesting that the false claim is perpetuated by past epidemiological research that focused solely on Japanese- and Chinese-Americans — subgroups that emigrated to the United States earlier than any other Asian minority group and have benefited from a longer adjustment period. "We can't just clump all Asians together," advises Atencio, whose Bangkok presentation made quite an impression on many conference attendees now eager to form partnerships with the St. John's research team.
"Jenni's presentation was insightful," says Emily Williams, who works for the British Department of Epidemiology and Public Health's Psychology Group. "I would consider including her methodologies in my own work in the assessment of psychosocial influence on coronary heart disease risk in U.K. South Asians, and I look forward to reading more about this research from her and her colleagues."
Atencio currently is working on her dissertation examining the effects of racism on health among multiple Asian-American subgroups.
The Vincentian Way According Brondolo and her team, the study of racism and its health implications supports the St. John's Vincentian mission of reaching out to underrepresented members of American society.
"We just want to increase the awareness that discrimination affects everyone, including members of the Asian community," says Atencio, adding that their research like theirs would be extremely difficult to conduct in universities outside the New York City melting pot, which has the highest U.S. populations of Filipino-, Chinese- and Korean-Americans.
"If you have been targeted by racism, you know that it is depressing and difficult to deal with, and that it may affect your health," adds Brondolo, whose studies suggest that day-to-day racism is more common than most people believe. "We hope that by explaining the way racism works, we can help people think more carefully about the way we interact with others and be more open to conversations about the topic."
Throughout her career, Brondolo's research has been buoyed by her self-created "Perceived Ethnic Discriminatory Questionnaire" (PEDQ). Designed for use with any ethnic or racial group, the PEDQ includes scales that assess people's lifetime experiences of ethnic discrimination. Brondolo developed her measure in collaboration with one of her mentors from Rutgers University, Dr. Richard Contrada, and fine-tuned it while working alongside the medical director at Bedford- Stuyvesant Family Health Center in Brooklyn in 2000.
Brondolo says she has administered the PEDQ to more than 2,000 subjects recruited from hospitals, community/migrant health centers and colleges and universities such as St. John's. She has used the results to write eight articles, four of which have been published. (The remaining four articles should be published soon.) The sophistication of the PEDQ has helped Brondolo secure nearly $2 million in grant money from the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute during her St. John's tenure. (She also has secured an additional $1 million in grants unrelated to the PEDQ.)
Brondolo says her next academic endeavor is to develop strategies that minorities can use to combat the health effects of racism.
