The Art and Science of Networking Success: Part 1
"Thy friend has a friend and the friend of thy friend has a friend." – Talmud
Most of us recognize the importance of networking, but when it comes right down to it, we really don't know how to do it well. Many of us mistakenly believe that networking is showing up to as many events as possible, while subtly (or not so subtly) making the case for ourselves or our organizations as we make the rounds. Those of us who go this route usually end up abandoning networking after attending too many parties and meetings with few results to show for it – and then arrive at the conclusion that networking doesn't really work.
But it does.

Celebrate independence and enjoy the good life in small town America
The Fourth of July is a time when small town America is on display in the finest tradition here in Coweta County.Our people love to show off the red, white and blue. They love to wave our glorious U.S. Flag. They love to celebrate with parades, great food, entertainment, fireworks, arts and crafts sales and all the other trappings of fun and fellowship that make small town life in this fast-growing community so attractive.
This is a wonderful place to call home, and that fact is evident during our towns' Fourth of July celebrations as much as any time of the year.
Public and private celebrations are scheduled throughout the county as we celebrate our nation's independence.
In Moreland, the Fourth (on Wednesday) starts early with the Pucket Station Festival beginning at 9 a.m. The community barbecue will start serving at 11 a.m. This is the biggest community event of the year in Moreland.
During the afternoon Wednesday the focus will shift to Newnan with the annual Fourth parade in the downtown area stepping off at 6 p.m. The parade ends at Newnan High School where the Newnan Rotary Club's traditional evening of family entertainment and fireworks closes out a busy holiday schedule.
There will be other public and private patriotic activities between now and the Fourth in our community. Enjoy all the activities. During our celebrations let's not forget our men and women in the military who are on duty serving to protect our freedom and spread that freedom to other people.
Have a glorious Fourth of July. Wave the flag and once again celebrate our independence which these United States of America has proudly proclaimed for 236 years.

Hyderabad: Saina Nehwal on Sunday received a brand new BMW car for winning a bronze medal at the London Olympics from none other than batting legend Sachin Tendulkar, who said that the world is yet to see the best of the star shuttler.The felicitation function was organised by Vice President of Andhra Badminton Association Chamundeshwari Nath, who honoured the city girl by buying her the luxurious car."I am sure that she (Saina) is happy but not satisfied. We are also not satisfied because we know that you can go to greater heights. You have that ability with Gopi`s guidance. There are better days ahead and as a sportsperson, you always try to believe that your best is yet to come," the iconic Indian batsman said at the felicitation function.While announcing a BMW car for Saina and a car each for her coach P Gopichand and budding talent P V Sindhu, Sachin said, "I am quite confident that your best is yet to come and you will emerge victorious across the world and that is what we want".Heaping praises on Saina, Tendulkar said,"Whatever I have seen of her there is no drama involved, it`s just quality badminton and that is what you expect from a sportsperson. After winning (bronze medal) also, she has not got carried away and that`s the beauty of being a champion sport person".Saina gave India its first-ever medal in badminton at Olympics when her Chinese opponent withdrew from the bronze medal play-off after injuring her knee."This medal means a lot for India, I am sure this medal has not come without dedication, hard work, focus and having a vision," Tendulkar said.Congratulating all the medal winners, he said it was "terrific" for India at London. "You all deserve praise and good things that are coming your way," he added.Responding to the accolade, Saina said she had waited for her Olympic moment since her childhood days."I dreamt of being a Olympic champion at the age of 9...It is unbelievable to have won the medal. I am so happy. I should thank Gopi sir for making it possible. He really worked hard with me for many years.""Myself winning the first medal will really change a lot of things for badminton in India and I am sure we shall have lot more medals in future. I hope badminton becomes one of the most popular games, though may not be like cricket, in our country," Saina said.BDST: 1904 HRS, August 20, 2012Edited byChanchal Ghosh, Newsroom Editor

Just awful support / quality.Pros: MX Reds. Great quality. Cheap price. Cons: Cheap for a reason. Weak solder - breaks down easy. Spacebar squeaks. Newegg support won't help me, the Warranty only covers parts...not labor. Other Thoughts: I only gave it 3 stars because while it lasted - it was good. Did you find this review helpful? |
Performs well... for a timePros: Cherry red. Cons: Eleven months of use so far and around the 10th month the issues started to appear. Intermittent USB Connector issues which seize the keyboard until I restart. I have put up with a non-functional numpad which I find very irritating because I do a lot of number input and the Period/Del, 3, 5, 6, 9, *. Other Thoughts: I've had many Rosewill products, this is the first one that has given me a headache. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
"2" key stopped working after a year of usePros: A decent mechanical keyboard for the price Cons: -had to be really careful with the micro usb connector Did you find this review helpful? |
fantastic to type onPros: Feels amazing to type on. Cons: Some other customers are saying that the USB solder is bad, but I keep it always plugged in and haven't had a problem. Did you find this review helpful? |
Stopped working right after warranty expiredPros: Very nice keyboard feel. Cons: Stopped working correctly13 months after purchased. One of my keys stopped working reliably just after the 1 year warranty expired. I have never had any other keyboard have a key die like this and especially so soon after the warranty period. Not good for such an expensive keyboard. Other Thoughts: This keyboard was generally very good except for the fact it didn't last. I now worry about the other one I bought the day after which hasn't been used as much (which I am now using). I wonder if I will have the same problem. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Almost made it a year.Pros: Fantastic quality, did everything I wanted when I wanted to. Replaced an old Logitech and never looked back. Cons: Purchased last year for black Friday as it was to good to pass up. Died yesterday =( Other Thoughts: I'm an avid gamer so, naturally, I wanted to try out a mechanical keyboard. When I found this Rosewill on sale last year I jumped at the chance and was very happy with what I was seeing. The keys are VERY responsive to touch and there's no fluff at all. You get your standard keyboard and 10-key pad and that's it. Recommended this to everyone I game with, and many that don't. Sadly though, not even a year later it just died... right in the middle of a game... that I couldn't just pause. Back to Logitech I go until I can find a good duckyshine for a nice deal. Did you find this review helpful? |
You get what you pay forPros: None Cons: Very low build quality Other Thoughts: Over the course of a week almost half the keys stopped working. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
USB Connector MalfunctionPros: Great keys for a great price. Uniform force required for all keys and I have not experienced any squeaking. Cons: After owning this keyboard for 9 months, I began to experience intermittent disconnects from the mini-USB connector. This has continued for ~2 weeks now. The solution is to unplug and replug the connector, but this is a major annoyance when it happens nearly once per hour. Other Thoughts: It's a shame this thing has a connector issue, as they keys have more then held up to the abuse I put this keyboard through. I have witnessed no degredation of the pressure required to actuate any of the keys, only minor wear on the printed letters on the left shift key and 's' key. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
trashPros: it somewhat worked? Cons: within days this keyboard had a squeaky space bar. within a few months, the usb connector started acting up. completely stopped working in less than a few years. rosewill has completely lost my respect and I will not be buying anything from them ever again, nor will I ever recommend them again. you would think for the price you would get something decent. Did you find this review helpful? |
Count on the connector breakingPros: Nice feel, like the old IBM keyboards I loved from the 286/386 days. Cons: The connector you attach the mini-USB cable to will break. I have lost lost two keyboards that way. I just got fed up with the second one and threw it across the room. It left a dent in my ceiling and little keys scattered all over the floor, Now I am using tiny backup keyboard with spongy keys that often don't work, and I am happier than with the intermittent usb disconnects from the Rosewill one. Now I need to find a really tall building... Other Thoughts: I got another keyboard for the office that has the same Cherry Red switches, so the same feel. And the cable is hard wired so I expect no problems. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |

"I loved the simplicity of this design. The front was not too busy as to take away from the photo. It was modern and clean. I especially was drawn to the card because of the pop of yellow on the back and the option to add a photo. This is perfect if you have a photo you'd like to share that doesn't work with the card design. When the card arrived, I was really impressed by the thickness of the paper and sharpness of the photo."
"We used this card with full color pictures, and the printing came out great. I put a photo on the back with the patterned background, which was a little busy, but still cute. Very well designed, great printing job, and the shipment delivered early!! I would totally recommend this card!"
"Love these announcements! We have gotten so many compliments from those that received these. They were perfect for our daughter and were printed beautifully. Perfect!"
"This postcard announcement was perfect! I loved being able to write a little note to family and friends. The light blue and gray colors looked great and the overall quality of paper and printing couldn't have been better. I will definitely order from here again."
"Was very happy with the final product of this card. They looked exactly as the appeared on website. Colours were true, printing quality was excellent and paper was also high quality - a satin finish for the printed side and matte card on the back. Overall would use this service again."

Flip and Raya
28 October 2005
What a week it has been. I have just returned from two weeks of holidays and it has taken almost the whole week to catch up on what has been happening with our show stars.Flip the Pied Cormorant has made it back into the show routine very nicely, learning very quickly to utilise his own special release hatch that enables him to get direct access to the Crocoseum pond in one short jump. He actually swims out the very same canal that the crocodiles use. Of course, this is while all the crocs are safely away!
One uncanny ability that Flip has is the ability to tell time. Without fail, during each show Flip's segment goes for only three minutes, and he is always right on cue when he has to come back in; a very unique ability. Pretty much every species of bird has its own unique ability or adaptation that makes it easier or safer for them to survive.
If you have a look at this week's photo you may notice that the Wedge-tailed Eagle's eye looks very odd. What is happening is that Raya is actually closing her third eyelid. This eyelid is a transparent membrane that will cover the entire exposed portion of the eye. Why do eagles have a third eyelid?
Could you imagine being a Wedge-tailed Eagle hunting down some rabbits or wallabies, coming in to catch your prey at a great rate of knots and hitting the ground tumbling through the grass and dust with your eyes open. You would very quickly get sore or damaged eyes, hey?
"Why don't they just close them?" you might ask. Most of the live prey items that the eagles catch don't actually want to be caught by an eagle (funny that) and will do everything they can to avoid it. So in the chase they will change direction very quickly and if the eagle had its eyes closed it simply would not see this and would not catch anything. So the eagles have evolved this third eyelid that flicks across their eye to protect it from any dust or grass that might get into it as they strike their prey, but still allows them to see through it enough to be able to visualise where their prey is, another very unique adaptation.

System: Lenovo T410 (System: 2516-CT0) Since purchasing the system from Lenovo in November 2010, always received the following sequence of events when running RnR:
1) Lauch RnR to peform backup
2) Click on 'Backup Now"
3) Message "Please wait while Windows configures Rescue and Recovery" display every time.
4) After a few minutes, the following error always displays: "Error 25014. There was an error installing the Rescue and Recovery boot manager. Return Code: 96."5
5) Back up appears to then perform.
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing RnR. I haven't touched the "Q:/" drive/partition shipped with the system. I did purchase and plug-in, via eSata port, an external 1Tb drive for backups.
I've searched this form and the web and found similar. But all allude to "Return Code: 6" not the "96" I am receiving. Additionally, the other post indicate the system was re-installed after factory. My system is factory.
Hi nelsondd,
I have some questions but no answers:
Can you see yor external drive in windows explorer? I have a USB/eSATA external drive that had to be initialized via USB before eSATA could be used.
When you do "backup now" do you see activity on the external drive LED?
If you go to the advanced R&R screen, are you able to select the external drive as a target there?
The error seem to be saying that it couldn't install the boot manager on the target drive. IIRC that one button backup first formats the drive, then installs R&R on it, then the backup image.
The large print: please read the Community Participation Rules before posting. Include as much information as possible: model, machine type, operating system, and a descriptive subject line. Do not include personal information: serial number, telephone number, email address, etc.
The fine print: I do not work for, nor do I speak for Lenovo. Unsolicited private messages will be ignored. ... GeezBlog
I'm getting that error too. I don't think it has anything to do with the external drive since you could back-up to the installed drive or a memory card - not that you'd want to, but you don't HAVE to use an external drive.
I've tried re-installing RnR and have updated Win 7 and all the Lenovo tools to no avail. I also turned off Bitlocker, no change. Has anyone come up with anything?
x200 Tablet, Win 7 Ultimate, RnR 4.1, System Update 4.3, Bios 3.18
Add me to the list - started a few weeks ago. Have tried repairng but not reinstalling. Backing up to an internal second HDD, also have a USB passport but everything used to work, haven't changed anything.

I've never been a fan of the tuck rule. I'm not sure outside of NE Patriot Fans you can find one decent NFL Fan supporting this ridiculous rule. The rule says that a QB attempting to "tuck' a football from a throwing position who fumbles, hasn't really fumbled. It was so silly that it had rarely ever been called before the famous call in NE that sent the Patriots to a superbowl and the Raiders home scratching their heads. I guess that is the good news. The bad news, the braintrust ruled that a RB can't lead with the crown of their helmets. Seriously? Did Goodell and Company just break into the US Senate over the weekend and steal all their stupid pills?This is one of those stupid rules where a RB is going to do it every time and it will only be called where, and when, the guys in stripes feel like it. Can anyone imagine a RB going into a goal line pile with his head up? How about when he gets to the 2nd level and there's a LB there to greet him...you think he's going into that head up? I'm curious as to how their going to teach the Refs to call this.
FA - Miami now has a gaping hole at LT and really need to sign Eric Winston. Winston isn't flashy and is at best a journeyman. But he has been a starter since 2007 which puts him at the head of the line right now. The problem might be a demand issue: Miami isn't the only team interested. I think the re-signing of Nate Garner is one of those break-glass-in-case-of-emergency signings because he can play the tackle position. Neither you, me, nor Ryan Tannehill are hoping that happens. Other FA in for a visit include Jet's OG Brandon Moore. He's a solid veteran which will push John Jerry. Jerry always seems to need a fire under his largess to play at a high level.
This might sound wierd but the top of my wish list right now are 3 guys that currently have no interest from Miami. John Abraham, Dwight Freeney and Elvis Dumervil. All of these guys would make excellent pass rushing specialists to complement Cameron Wake. With Dumervil entering the market and not happy with the offer from the Broncos it has suddenly become a buyers market. Don't discount that a solid pass rush from the other side will instantly improve our secondary. There were games last year when they doublled/tripled Wake and the QB was untouched. Our secondary didn't fare well in those games. Signing one of these guys to a 1 year deal would instantly upgrade the pass rush.
Cap space: Miami still has about 14 million in cap space with another 7 million after June 1. Last year's rookie class counted about 2.4 million against the 2012 cap so you can figure slightly more this year due to more picks. With that said, there's still plenty of room to sign a couple more guys that could make an immediate impact. Personally, I'd love to see a CB and LT signed from the veteran ranks. Then, if room, a DE. All 3 would be like hitting the trifecta and the Kentucky Derby. In any case, our off-season started with a bang and is still fairly hot in terms of "what ifs" that might happen. Stay tuned and ..oh yeah...Go PHINS!!!!! Just because I want to leave you with a smile on your face, here's a photo I found on the web this week.

I just say 3 words... GAME OVER! SNKEx moves copyed from SFIII, control+C Control+V from KOF XIIraiden and mature in the game ( wtf are they thinking..?),iori with that screwed move(qcb+ A or C ... where is the good and old school qcb+A or C 3x ?) I really think they have to postpone this game for more 1 or 2 yearsand bring something really better.Only few chars,i really would like to see oswald again and other cool chars that didnt appear on the previous game.Just to finish : I really think they made something in a hurry to try to compete withSSFIV , but again, Snk will lose the fight.Maybe now the company will close and we will only remember of its good and old titles that made our days happy... :'(R.I.P. SnkPs:nothing yet about 2k2 um american version or they won't release it?
Add extra characters and DLC for new ones!

Robert Griffin III's recovery from reconstructive knee surgery has been covered like no other. Presidents have spoken with him. Released statements have been parsed for hidden meaning. And eventually we'll know the exact moment when the Washington Redskins quarterback starts running again. According to Griffin's dad, that moment will arrive in the next week. The Washington Post reported Monday that Griffin is expecting to receive clearance to run on the field again over the next week. "He's been running in the pool, and some on the treadmill," Griffin Jr. said. "But they're just about ready to take it out on the field."
RG3 might run next week for Washington Redskins

Starting today: a test of automatic severe weather watch and warning messages on @chswx
In April, I'll have been operating the @chswx Twitter account for four years. In that time, I have relayed a vast majority of all the severe weather watches and warnings issued by the National Weather Service for the Charleston, SC Tri-County Area *manually.* As you can imagine, this has been quite an undertaking and has helped @chswx build quite an impressive following for which I am extremely grateful!
To that end, I don't want to accidentally let someone down by missing a critical warning overnight or when I am occupied with other tasks. (That, and it's pretty hard to explain to my wife why I'm interrupting our dinner together to relay a warning over Twitter.) Therefore, I am piloting the use of automated warnings on @chswx starting today.
I'm kicking the tires on a free trial of Weather Message, which offers pretty good social media integration, including Twitter and Facebook. Weather Message uses an EMWIN feed over the Internet to relay messages. I don't have ready access to a dish (and bandwidth for a full NOAAPort feed over the Web is monstrous). EMWIN fills the role I need nicely. EMWIN prioritizes severe weather warnings in its data stream, so our warnings will still be relayed in a very timely fashion — still among the fastest on Twitter in southeast SC. Chances are good, too, that I will be around to back up the automatic message with the context you've come to know and hopefully love over the years.
There are three downfalls to this:
- The warning message will include counties, but not cities just yet. I'm working on a clean way to better represent cities in the polygon. (If anybody with Weather Message experience is reading this and can chime in on it, please do!)
- There is not yet support for sending messages to identi.ca. This part really sucks; third-party support for identi.ca is dismal. I think I have an idea for a solution to this, but it will require extensive testing and won't be ready right away. Rest assured, though, that I'm working on it. identi.ca is a really important tool in my stack (especially given Twitter's questionable-at-times reliability) and I want to make sure it is properly supported.
- Weather Message is for Windows only, requiring me to use an Amazon EC2 instance to keep it going at the moment. This may get expensive, so we will see. It is possible that I may only run the automated bot during times where I'm tied up.
I also want to reiterate my disclaimer that @chswx should not be your sole source of severe weather information. Twitter can be astoundingly useful, but it can also be astoundingly unreliable, so I urge people to have redundant ways to receive severe weather information. An alerting NOAA Weather Radio is among the most reliable ways to receive weather warnings. There are also smartphone apps, such as the recently revamped iMap WeatherRadio, that push weather alerts to your iPhone based on your location (Android is coming soon). If you really, really like Twitter, consider following my Twitter list of Charleston broadcast meteorologists for enhanced context around a breaking weather situation.
If the automatic tweets become nonsensical or more confusing than helpful, I'll make adjustments. Weather Message is well-tested software used by some of the best meteorology outfits in the business (including ABC 33/40 in Birmingham, AL, home of James Spann) so I am confident in its ability to cleanly and rapidly deliver important weather information. That being said, there could always be trouble with the service as it is still highly experimental and doesn't have any redundancy set up yet. I definitely want your feedback — please sound off in the comments, and thanks for following @chswx over the years!

LAKE CITY, Fla. -- Lake City Police Department officers found two men deceased in a home they were renovating after family members became concerned about the two's well being.
Officers went to the home in the 800 block of N.E. Denver Street a little before 10 p.m. Sunday, according to a news release from Lake City Police Department Public Information Officer Craig Strickland.
Strickland said officers went to the home after Jacksonville resident Juanita Smith called police concerned for her husband. Smith told police she had not heard from her husband since noon the same day.
Strickland said earlier in the day Smith asked her sister-in-law to go by the home to check on her husband and a friend who were there doing renovations. No one answered the door when she knocked, but their vehicle was in the driveway, Strickland said.
When police arrived they knocked on both the front door and window but did not receive a response.
Strickland said as officers looked through the windows, Strickland said they saw one of the men unresponsive sitting in a chair in the living room.
Police called the Lake City Fire Department and EMS. Once they arrived they entered the residence and determined there were high levels of carbon monoxide.
Strickland said the carbon monoxide was due to a possible gas leak.
Paramedics pronounced the man found sitting in the chair, identified as 74-year-old Willie Saulsby Smith, deceased.
Emergency workers then evacuated the home until the scene could be made safe, Strickland said.
After crews pulled the gas meter from the residence and it was determined to be safe, the Lake City Fire Department went back inside the residence.
Strickland said once emergency crews went back into the home they found 48-year-old John Thomas Rawls deceased in a bathroom.
Police do not suspect any suspicious activity, Strickland said, and the deceased are being examined at the Medical Examiner's Office to determine an exact cause of death.

Heart attack that's what's your medical bills may -- give you now but the High Court ruled that health care mandate lives.
That is the Forbes a verdict but is that the right verdict hi everybody I'm David -- let's go in focus where -- -- about Greg Dobbs Michael.
Morgan -- ended -- candidate Rick younger add bill -- so bike will this make costs go up.
David insurance premiums are gonna skyrocket.
Jonathan Gruber the MIT economist and a big advocate of Obama care who the big -- -- of the plan were pointing to.
Back in 2009.
Has gone from saying that insurance premiums what in the individual market that is non group programs would go from declining 13%.
To 30%.
Two years ago to now saying in states like Minnesota Colorado.
Wisconsin they've actually -- to increase.
Nineteen to 30% more than they would have had obamacare not been law.
You know -- and it's not brick it's not for everybody but this that this economist by the way that was just mentioned.
He said that 59%.
Of the public would spend an extra 31%.
In -- so even people who supported.
Obamacare in the beginning now say the premiums will go up as a result of it.
Guys I hate to shoot this down but I'm gonna tell you where you got that information -- data from an interview with that are actually email.
That was sent to the daily collar it was reprinted by our colleague of Forbes -- -- And guess what if you read the Washington Post which I will gladly make available to you in the viewers.
He set the record straight he never said that's what was gonna happen he was taken completely -- -- context and to this day I spoke to him yesterday.
This is not what he believes he does not believe it is gonna force premiums up.
That said look.
We all know that insurance premiums will always go up the question is.
Will be -- C a play a role in keeping them lower.
Then they would have been without the law what we never focus enough on our the provisions of this a lot better designed to bring down the costs of health care.
He -- -- inspiring -- CEO formation keeping hospitals from having outrageous recidivism rates which we've been seeing over the past many years.
All of these things bring down the cost if those ideas work and we won't know until we know that you're going to see it reflect.
But in -- -- -- absolutely huge gamble is it not because we have already seen it premiums go up tremendously over the past year and yeah magazines write -- Congressional Budget Office Ari said the premiums will go up.
Because when you have you know 3050 million people back into the system who are uninsured actually they'll go up but also covering preexisting conditions covering the retiree early -- you know retiree health insurance costs -- recovering drug costs.
Even a Supreme Court justices John Roberts who voted for Obama care I know -- congress about to have heart healthy.
If they -- what I say I.
Not just because of -- supposed to -- good looks but you know the it's not but anyway but also it's John Roberts said -- significantly higher health insurance premiums that would have been what since what -- it all comes down to math again I don't -- -- repeat this whole debate we had a couple years ago but how can hit it short thirty million new people how can you cover a whole lot of new stuff without premiums going up.
And I think that brings up a really good point parent not the fact that we can argue about what previous marriage it -- Obama -- plays or not place but the truth of matter is payment premiums.
Even if they rise they want not rise as much arguably as they would have if the mandate was struck down and I think that's the point -- -- Yeah I think that's a point that needs to be made cannot -- examples we've seen similar.
Eighteen -- things happen in states are the last couple of decades Washington State back in 1993.
Had a very similar form and place they struck -- and -- -- cats cats you know.
Coverage for mandatory coverage for every want.
And we saw those premiums rising -- individual coverage disappear by 1999 -- on the flip side in Massachusetts has kept the mandate and premiums have not risen nearly as.
They have oh yeah I have a little and adding my you know they absolutely darling I look at quality on the track compared to median income of state -- actually -- -- -- now that I.
Let's go -- of the weeds of statistics here but you're on adding common sense dictates that if you have.
To do more you gotta pay more Fort -- Yeah I mean I don't need an errant email the daily caller to tell me what's obvious the Affordable Care Act as they call it.
Says that she can't refuse individuals based on preexisting conditions even more than that if he refused to pay the tax that's going to be imposed.
You can always later in the game to get an insurance policy.
By definition we are for doing this we're going to raise the risk for insurance companies which means that insurance premiums -- -- going to go up.
This isn't debatable this is just basic economics and to deny it is dishonest.
Bill what -- effect get ready for death spiral slicing what's gonna happen.
Initially only the older and sicker people will -- Prices will go up -- then -- hey let's spend sickest people will buy it isn't what they're doing what we're in the big reason for this.
What are the reasons it is that are the association of retired people got a provision in there that basically says by -- law.
Young people have to be overcharged so that the old people can get a better deals -- what's gonna happen -- young people drop out.
They would.
Hey -- mandate tax taxed but whatever it is that's a pat on the back and we're gonna -- Have a death of Carol that second game because we have seen so far I know that the full thrust of Obama -- doesn't come -- for a couple of years but Michael as any we've already seen it.
Health insurers -- having it cover more people and and more individuals and as a result of that coverage.
Premiums have gone up I absolutely -- ready we've seen results of this absolutely and all the evidence is bad and in an honorary email.
This Gruber gentleman from MIT attacked a price Waterhouse study saying that premiums would go up over 40%.
So he's on the record blatantly saying that and now he's retracted it all right it's not just to get that on about it.
We go back and forth on this Rick you gotta you gotta admit that if you are forced to do more as a -- -- Somewhere somehow you gotta pay more for -- right.
First of all you talk about that rates have already gone up according -- advisories -- great article about let's talk overall territory I'm gonna I'm gonna enforcing standards -- -- -- decided if you have to do more as a business don't you have to pay for.
Yeah -- you know what you're leaving -- autocratic critical what was something kind of critical.
In the insurance equation it's called balancing the pool.
Yes there will be more old sick people but you know what the reason we have the mandate is it brings in the younger healthy people get an eighty to twenty.
And it works great if anybody way to -- with how insurance works CNN.
Hundreds of journalists are not an expert but I have cover what happened in California with -- advantage which flopped in 2006.
Because -- had all people and basically very sick people.
And it was not balanced by the healthy people -- -- got to foot the bill and hang on -- knows a foot the bill for all about for keeping those exchanges in place.
The US taxpayer that's who's gonna have to pay for all that that's them.
Is and that's really the last -- about why it wasn't.
In the end it is the taxpayer that's gonna pay for any extra crops unless Rick is right that somehow magically costs -- gonna come down have a visible as government intrusion.
I think Rick has a secret plan.
He's counting on a -- on -- getting reelected.
Supporting Mike Bloomberg is secretary of health and Bloomberg's gonna outlaw cookies that's gonna.
-- because John and I -- a valid.
-- right now he's he's gonna take that.
-- -- -- bottom line here whenever the government tries to do something that the private sector does don't costs always go up and efficiency usually go down.
They go up because they're not doing that would profit -- -- -- it would trying to achieve a social outcome.
This requires insurance companies to take people they otherwise would not take it also means that if you're young and healthy you're gonna pay the tax rather than -- join the insurance pool here can only join you need it so it's going to be.
A pool supporters sick risks go -- -- at a premium young and I'll tell -- what job.
Yeah I'm playing this season and really got here right now -- the fact that if anything that tax should actually be higher if you wanna see that although.
We're we're leaving that I -- -- -- in the end marker and.

A few weeks ago, our church was a part of an awesome opportunity to serve. They cancelled all the services for the weekend and 3500 people went out and served in the community. It was so great to be a part of it.
We were particulary looking forward to this because we are always looking for creative ways to get our kids involved in serving as well. As the day approached, my husband and I suddenly realized our 7 year-old may be upset when he realized he would not only be giving up part of his Saturday but also have to get up before the sunrise to do it! So we opted not to tell him before we did it! Something I'm not usually into doing but we did it anyway. We also tried to think of ways to make it fun.
Early Saturday I woke him. He was confused. I said to him, "Mommy and Daddy have something very important we need your help with today. Before we go we will get some breakfast at _______". (Yes, I can't even say the words of the place we took him. My friends will know! Someplace we do not take our children!) He got out of bed, reluctantly, and griped as he put on his matching t-shirt (who could blame him!).
He's a bright kid and quickly realized what was up. We let him complain and get it out- validated getting up early and putting on matching green t-shirts- and went on our way.
He started out by helping Daddy outside. Then he came inside and asked if he could help me. I was really surprised! I expected him to help my husband, then sit and complain about wanting to go home. He helped me scrub toilets! By the way- yes- ME, the germ-a-phobic, got to scrub the toilets! THAT is true service and showing Jesus to people! I could only do that in His name! lol Then he went back out to help Daddy again ( I don't blame him, wish I could have, too!).
We were finally finished and headed back to the church for a picnic. I wanted to start a conversation to see how he was feeling. Before I could even start it he said to us, "Mommy and Daddy, thank you for letting me do this today with you!" Oh wow- I teared up (of course) and honestly, didn't know what to say. I gathered myself together and thanked him for his kind spirit and his giving heart. When my son went for a refill I told my husband that we must be doing something right- our son had just thanked us for letting him serve!
What a proud parent moment. But more than that, I realized my son had felt that feeling inside that we get when we help others in need. That warm glow and burst of energy that can only be felt when we feel and release compassion. That healthy sense of confidence you feel, knowing that you touched someone and gave them hope. He didn't realize that was what he was feeling, but I knew it. I was so happy for him.
I'm sharing this with you for multiple reasons (besides just bragging on my son!). I want to encourage you to think today-
1. When was the last time you felt that glow? That glow is purpose! What can you do in the near future for someone- to lend compassion to them and to help you feel more purpose in your life?
2. How can you be creative in teaching kids compassion? One thing we did to start the day off in a positive way was by taking him to the "forbidden" restaurant for breakfast. That was important to keep things positive. It wasn't a bribe- "If you do this, we will take you out for breakfast." No- it really was an attempt to create a positive feeling about the day. It was fun.
3. Just when you think you are the queen of service and can do it all- God puts you in charge of cleaning the toilets!! (another blog for another day!)
I hope you have a blessed week! Thank you for reading.

I remember reading last holiday season about retailers providing floor staff with devices so they could do real-time price comparisons with competitors and make adjustments accordingly. This is going to work for big retailers rather than, say, independent bookstores.
I've seen the recent ads from Walmart offering to match prices customers bring to the cash register.
I've not tried it and don't know if I'd be brave enough to even attempt the process. Just imagine holding up the line behind you to save a dollar. I bet the folks behind you aren't going to appreciate the delay.
And just how the process is supposed to work, I'm not sure. Bring out a printed ad, show the ad on your smart phone? Who knows.
Maybe that's what Walmart is counting on. Not many requesting a price reductions in real life, but just BELIEVING Walmart has the lowest prices to start with.
I think showrooming works best if only a very few customers(and those who have done proper price research on every item) will walk away with the best deal, this in turn will generate long queue at the cash counter (as if they are any shorter during holiday season anyways) sigh!! I guess I'll just pay 50 cents more and get home early.
Showrooming has been a big problem for small retailers. One of the relatively few remaining independent bookstores in New York, St Mark's Bookshop, is in dire straits. One owner told me he watches countless customers come in, browse the shelves as if in a library, check the price of items on their smartphones, and walk out again. He can't pay his lease and undercut Amazon.
Well, I can't say I blame the brick and mortar stores for trying. It has to be pretty frustrating to be 'showroomed' all the time. Having good traffic, a lot of people in-store, but poor sales at the end of the day.
Valiant effort, though, but as you've said, while it might inconvenience some people say at the checkout counter, it might actually help their business this season. Who knows?

It'd be pretty cool to see how games would be like when we get to the point where environments can act almost completely naturalistic. Imagine a GTA game like that.
I mean, Battlefeild has destructible environments, and Burnout gives a big focus on car destruction, but I think we've got a good ways to go before we can simulate nearly flawless naturalism in video games. I have to wonder how those kinds of games would even design themselves, if the entire environment followed some kind of physics, instead of only just the objects that have a utility IN game to do so?

We at Econsultancy consider ourselves as promoters of best practice. 'Achieve Digital Excellence' reads our brand new strapline in the big red dot up there, and with this modus operandi we carry a great responsibility.
The responsibility of wading through the darkest digital waters (confusing and potentially dangerous metaphor alert) and remaining constantly poised to spear the very best of the internet.

Custom reports are perhaps the most useful feature in Google Analytics, as they enable you to find the data and presentation that best suits your business goals.
I'm no big Google Analytics expert, instead I've picked it up and figured things out as I've gone along, mainly with the aim of understanding our users' behaviour and improving this blog.
I explain more of my approach to measuring and optimising this blog here, but I wanted to provide a beginner's guide to creating custom reports.
If this is too basic for you, or I've made any glaring errors, please forgive me (and put me right in the comments), but I hope this will be useful for you.
So here's how to create a basic custom report from scratch...

Since it's free, and ubiquitous, small businesses are likely to be relying on Google Analytics for online measurement.
Indeed, our Online Measurement and Strategy Report 2013 found that 56% of businesses rely exclusively on Google for data analytics, while others use GA in conjunction with paid analytics services.
Even if you're no data expert, you can still find some valuable insight from the basic reports in GA, which can be very useful for your business.
Also, ready-made custom reports and dashboards can save you a lot of time.
As the UK is celebrating its first Small Business Saturday on 7th December 2013, I've rounded up some useful examples which should be helpful for SMEs.
(By the way, if you don't have Google Analytics, read this post by Google's Daniel Waisberg on setting up and using Google Analytics).

The value in web analytics comes not from the tool but from using the data it provides.
Web analytics can be an amazing driver of business performance when it's supplying insights that are used to inform business actions. For this, you need more than the technology, you need the people and the processes as well.
Let's narrow our focus though to just the web analytics tool, whether a (technically) free solution such as Google Analytics or the paid solutions such as Adobe Analytics, Webtrends, etc.
So many companies say they are doing web analytics because they have a tool installed. Simply adding the basic page tag to your website is not enough to give you useful insights.

As many of you will be aware by now, WHSmith took its website offline on Sunday after it discovered that pornographic eBooks were available through its Kobo e-reader.
While the material was undoubtedly unacceptable and needed to be taken offline, it did seem like an over-reaction to pull down the entire website. What's even more surprising is that two days later the site still isn't back online.
Yesterday we published a post discussing WHSmith's decision, including the impact on its SEO, alternative courses of action and what it says about the business' understanding of digital marketing and ecommerce.
And as the site is still offline there's more to be said in terms of the wider implications for WHSmith's digital marketing initiative and the long term impact on the brand.

I asked a few analytics experts for their views on the new features, which are most significant, and how they could be put to use by online businesses.

Yesterday's Google Analytics Summit contained 14 new product releases, with perhaps the most interesting being the ability to view demographic data.
The Google Analytics blog has a rundown of all the new features, but here are a few of the most significant...

There are lots of reports around the web right now that Google is redirecting all traffic to the HTTPs (secure) version of its site.
Search Engine Land explains that this may be an attempt to block NSA spying, or perhaps to increase ad sales. Who knows?
What does seem certain is that the amount of organic traffic which is encrypted has leapt up over the past month, and more so over the last day or so.

I was reading this article on paidcontent over the weekend, which points out the value of analytics to publishers, but only if they are using the right metrics.
The key point was the danger in focusing on pageviews, as this doesn't necessarily help to build the kind of audience that publishers and their advertisers need.
I would agree with that, and though pageviews are not insignificant, there are many more useful metrics for publishers to view.
In this post, I'll attempt to answer the question by sharing some of the ways I use Google Analytics for this blog, while this post presents 10 shortcuts to Google Analytics reports and dashboards for publishers, bloggers and content marketers.

Writing a News Release
A news release lets the media and others know about a policy, program, event, or activity. The release should have a clear objective. When developing a release, consider the following questions: What is the news? Who would be interested in the news? Who would care? What result do I expect from this news release (inform, educate, persuade, activate, etc.)? Whenever possible, use existing resources to create news materials. This will save time and resources (see news release template and sample) or follow these basic steps to format a news release.

7. Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
Gosh, these questions are getting pretty deep, huh? Well let's see…
I can honestly say that yes – I'm doing what I believe in. Although my full-time job in real estate appraisals isn't necessarily my passion, I'm motivated every day by the fact that I work for the family business, which also helps support the lives of other employees that I consider friends. And then of course there's FreelyBe, which I've made no secret how much I believe in that as what I'm supposed to do as my career/calling in life (what I have made a bit of a secret over the past 6+ months is what exactly is going on with FreelyBe, which I'll explain within the next month or so!).
A couple of years ago I wouldn't have been able to say any of that. I guess the mid-twenties really is when one "finds herself"…
8. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
That's easy.
I would take more time to get to know people.
I would stop caring so much about trivial things.
And I would take a heck of a lot more risks.
I like to think I've taken risks in life so far, but the truth is that I play it safe way more often than I would like. I've gotten a lot better with taking risks as I've gotten older, but there's definitely still that little voice inside saying "just wait – there's always tomorrow." And I hate that.
Oh, and I'd also travel way more than I have by now. I've got to see the world, dangit.
Your turn! Answer #7 and/or #8?

By: Lynette Holloway Posted: March 18 2010 7:32 AM 0 Getty Images Just weeks after Tavis Smiley announced in January that he'd be ending his annual State of the Black Union conference, the PBS talk show host and activist revealed plans to convene a one-day symposium with leaders and prominent thinkers about the African American agenda. "The conversation is about whether or not there is a need for an African American agenda in the era of Obama in this so-called "post-racial" America and how we go about doing that," Smiley told The Root in an interview. "We Count! The Black Agenda is the American Agenda,'' is coming up this Saturday, March 20, at Chicago State University, and will be broadcast by C-SPAN. [Update on March 19: The event will be taped, not broadcast live. In order to view it as it happens, check out the UStream online.] Up to 5,000 people are expected to attend the panel discussion, which will include Nation of Islam minister Louis Farrakhan; Rev. Jesse L. Jackson Sr.; Angela Glover Blackwell, founder and chief executive officer of Policylink; professors Michael Eric Dyson and Cornel West; and Bennett College president Julianne Malveaux. The discussion comes on the heels of a vigorous debate between Smiley and civil rights leader Rev. Al Sharpton over how black leaders should relate to President Barack Obama's administration. Percolating beneath the surface of the dispute was Smiley's question of whether the president has done enough to help blacks who have been hit hard by the recession. Below, Smiley answers some questions about the "We Count!'' conference: The Root: Why did you decide to cancel the State of the Black Union conference and hold "We Count!'' Tavis Smiley: No. 1, after 10 years of doing the State of the Black union [we decided] that we weren't going to do it anymore because we had done it for 10 years. No. 2, in addition to my TV show, in addition to my radio show, and the other seven businesses I run through my company, we're doing four primetime documentaries for PBS. When I started the State of the Union, there weren't the numbers of blacks that there are now in the space that I occupy. [Now] there are other spaces and places to have these conversations about issues that matter. TR: Was the conference sparked by the radio debate between you and Rev. Sharpton? TS: The radio debate happened as a result of my calling for the conference. Sharpton didn't like what I said in the commentary calling for the conference and went after me on his radio show. I was asked to call into his radio show to talk to him. Because I have great respect for Rev. Al Sharpton, I consider him a friend even to this day; I respect his work and his witness. He has been a freedom fighter. My statement is this: I think we need to learn as black folk how to learn to agree and disagree without being disagreeable. We can disagree without engaging in personal ad hominem attacks. After I went on his radio show, the conversation turned out to be what it turned out to be and people can judge for themselves. TR: Rev. Sharpton's name isn't on the list of invitees. Was he invited? TS: Yes, he was invited. He said he couldn't attend because of a scheduling conflict.

This photo was posted on the Shanghai Style File blog, which is usually dedicated to fashion. According to the blog:
And now for something completely different. We interrupt Shanghai Style File's usual broadcast of all things chic to present to you a smoking Chinese toddler spotted on Easter Sunday in Shanghai's family-friendly Fuxing Park. My jaw dropped when his pajama-clad mother handed the tot a cigarette… then lit it for him … then smiled on as he smoked it… then laughed as he rolled on the ground when he felt sick. As I snapped photos, my friends begged the parents to intervene, but they just enjoyed the show. This is a disturbing scene indeeed, but I could not not share this.
