Does Yahoo + Del.icio.us = Yahoo's Relevance in Search Again?
Posted by
Pete Caputa
on Mon, Jan 21, 2008 @ 12:22 PM
Most people forget that if it wasn't for Yahoo, Google wouldn't exist. Yahoo had enough foresight to realize that Google's algorithmic search engine was better. And they did a deal to use Google's technology to power Yahoo's search engine, before anyone ever heard of Google. Years later now, Yahoo has spent a lot of $ and time to try and duplicate Google's technology. And they've developed a nice "me-too" search business for both organic rankings and paid listings. It's a big business for Yahoo! Huge, actually. But, they are very far behind Google in terms of search volume
and revenue
Find me 10 websites that get more search traffic from Yahoo than Google and I'll kiss a monkey's ass. Most people use Google. As a result, Google makes a lot more $ from search than Yahoo! Some people have suggested that Yahoo should throw in the towel and use Google again to power their search and ppc ad platform.
I highly disagree. It would be disastrous for both democracy and commerce. Without Yahoo in the race, Google would be the closest thing to Big Brother as the human race has ever invented. Maybe they aren't evil. But, they'd wield way too much power and influence. They already wield too much power with an almost unbreakable ecosystem of SEO & SEM professionals, small businesses, advertisers, media companies and individuals reliant on it for survival.
Not only would Yahoo throwing in the towel be bad for womankind. But, I think it'd be like quitting a marathon because you're behind in the first mile. There's lots more room in the search race for game changing innovation.
One of Yahoo's secret weapons is Del.icio.us. If you haven't heard of it, you may soon. It's generally a site that web native early adopters use to save web pages they want to visit later - like you probably use internet explorer's bookmarking tool. However, del.icio.us saves the web pages to an online account that you can search, gives you tools to organize lots of pages, and share it with others.
Unlike Digg, many different types of demographics (besides pimpled slightly-post-pubescent internet geeks) use delicious. So, it's not constrained to one demographic. For example, I did a search for
Vegetarian Chili Recipes
on delicious this weekend, and it returned a ridiculous amount of great results. I used the recipe that had been bookmarked by 264 delicious users, and the chili turned out delicious! (Pun fully intended.)
In a conversation I had a week or two ago with a prospect, we talked about Delicious. Among other things, HubSpot's
website grader
reports how many times your website has been bookmarked on Delicious vs your competitors. It doesn't mean a whole lot by itself other than the fact that your website may be "viral" if a bunch of people have bookmarked it. In "non-marketing" other words, if one company has a lot of bookmarks on delicious vs their competitors, it means they are probably better at publishing information that people find useful. But, delicious itself doesn't send a lot of traffic to websites and it doesn't help you increase your search rankings in search engines since it uses the "
" tag in all outbound links.
Atleast not yet. TechCrunch reported last week that
Yahoo is inserting Del.icio.us bookmark data in Yahoo's search results
. It's
not clear whether Yahoo is planning to use Del.icio.us data to reorder Yahoo search results
. But, I'd highly doubt if they weren't thinking about using it as a factor to atleast help rank search results. They'd be stupid not to consider it.
Both Google, Yahoo, MSN and Ask all use formulas that take into account the number, quality and construction of links pointing to a website to rank websites in search results for a given keyword phrase. However, most people don't create links on the web. I'd hazard to wager that more people bookmark stuff more frequently than they do create links on the web. So, by using delicious bookmarks to rank search results, Yahoo could drastically improve the quality of its search results. It's like running two different polls. The one with more votes is usually a more accurate poll results. Right now, Google has more votes in its poll. But, with delicious, Yahoo could leapfrog google.
Assuming they are considering this, Yahoo isn't the first company to consider letting people more directly influence search rankings. Back in 2004,
started an interesting trend of letting people directly build search results.
I actually started an unofficial blog to cover it
. Google has an
experiment in place too
. And
is a
cool application
built on top of Google reader which shows which stories are shared the most. (Ironically - or not - an article about Delicious is at the top right now.)
is a much more popular memetracker which uses link patterns between a small group of tech blogs to create a list of top news. There's one for baseball, gossip and politics too. It's certainly feasible that a search engine could take this approach for every topic conceivable. Both Mahalo and Wikia search are attempts at throwing away the algorithm and
letting users build search engine results pages
Google Web History
also uses your previous search results to rank your own search results. Many SEO professionals think that
click track data affects the main search result rankings too
In short, there are all kinds of experiments being conducted to leverage different user inputs to rank search results. Many different types of approaches are being tested to let users rank search results more directly; to
crowdsource search rankings
. As search engines expand the variables in their algorithms to include more user inputs, the search engine with the most user inputs will most likely serve the best search results. Delicious is a huge bank of user inputs with a thriving community of inputters. The question is whether Yahoo + Delicious search results can attract searchers to Yahoo from Google? Combined with a
new more-useable Delicious
look and more prominence in search results, could Yahoo's search business see a rise in usage? Will SEO professionals start using Delicious to engineer Yahoo search results? Can Yahoo leverage the user base at Delicious to increase usage of their search and impressions for Yahoo Search marketing? I wouldn't bet against it. On the other hand, are they
too disorganized to pull it off

The big deadline to file your income taxes with the IRS is Tuesday, April 17. And if you're like me, you still haven't gotten them done yet. We all have our bad years, but there are a number of apps that can help you out. If you're an Android user, we already have a guide of some of the better Android apps for taxes, but iPad owners, you are in luck. Though it's still a bit limited, the tax app selection for iPad is better than any other platform.
Below are our favorite iPad apps that help you file your income taxes.
There are two H&R Block apps. The "H&R Block Mobile" app is mostly a pass-along app that allows you to do some simple things like easily schedule appointments with an H&R Block representative, find a local office, roughly estimate your taxes (pretty good estimate, in my case), create a checklist of things you may need to remember later (and email it to yourself), and it can also give you some basic tax-related answers. Mostly, this is a clever app that gets you in the door so you either see an H&R Block representative in person or purchase full software from the company. What's here is free, so it can't hurt to check it out if you're hurting for info.
H&R Block At Home (Free to download)
If you're more interested in tackling taxes on your own rather than just getting roped into an office, "H&R Block At Home" is the option you're after. It's a full app that allows you to e-file your taxes straight from your iPad. While it's free to prepare, print, and file your taxes with this app, you will have to buy the actual return forms in order to fill them out. It's usually a bit cheaper than TurboTax, though. It's a good option for previous H&R Block users, as information previously filed from the app or online is now accessible within the app.
This is a dead simple app. Enter your information in the form and it will give you a good estimate of what your tax refund might be this year. However, as I found out the hard way, this app does not work unless you've already filed your taxes (duh). This app is also available on iPhone and Android.
iDeductable and Taxable? ($2)
iDeductable is a horrible looking app with only a few real pages. In all honesty, it barely belongs on an iPad. However, as horrible as it looks, it does give a very good, and easy to read, view of what items are deductible from your taxes. It has pages for employee deductions, self-employed deductions, personal deductions, investment deductions, and some relevant info for the 2011 season. Obviously, you don't need this app unless you're confused about deductions, but if you need the info, it's here. Taxable is another app that I instantly realized was from the same company due to its signaturely bad design. This app has the same simple premise, but helps you figure out what is taxable.
Ask a CPA (Free)
This free app gives some basic tips about taxes in a number of categories, but it's better if you have a specific question. You can ask any question for free. If all goes well, you'll get an answer. If you want a more reliable (and possibly more detailed) answer, there's another app called My Pocket CPA, which also lets you ask a question, but charges a fee (usually around $10) per answer. We recommend My Pocket CPA if you have a more serious question, as it has a more detailed interface for asking. With Ask a CPA, you're mostly limited to a text box.
TurboTax 2012 (Free to download)
Intuit's TurboTax is the most popular tax software around, and for good reason. Like all versions, the iPad TurboTax app is quite user friendly, looks wonderful, and will guide you through the entire process of filing your federal and state returns, step by step. If your taxes are especially simple, there is also an iPhone and Android phone SnapTax app that can scan your W2 and fill most stuff out for you. TurboTax is likely how I'll be filling out my taxes this weekend.
TaxACT Free Federal Edition (Free to download)
If you're a TaxACT user and got ready to file your taxes with the help of it's Tax Central smartphone app, you can stick with the company to complete your taxes. Once you're ready to file, you can use TaxACT's Free Federal Edition app. Like it's competition, this app allows you to prepare, print, and e-file your tax return. There is a financial aid worksheet for college loans, bookmarks that allow you to add notes to questions you're unsure of, and guidance for any gray areas you may encounter. Filing through TaxACT costs $15. From what it promises, it seems rather feature rich. However, the reviews are mixed at best. Approach with caution, because the last thing you want to do is mess up your tax information and have an audit on your hands.
We'd like to see more…
While the selection of apps on the iPad is, in some ways, better than those for iPhone or Android, it could be better. The list expanded a little more this year, but it's still pretty much a duopoly between H&R Block and TurboTax when it comes to taxes. Hopefully, more quality apps will be released by next year. Until then, enjoy this comic from the creator of Dr. Katz.

I guess I will be around venue probably just after 5. I'm always there before doors open because I'm total OCD about it, I'd rather be there and wait and hour than be there late. Don't mind doing it with other bands, but not Marilyn Manson lol. Plus I guess the tube is busier just after 5? I want to try and avoid that.
I think I will be wearing a jacket I altered to look a little bit like Manson's during The Dope Show/Slo-Mo-Tion with a mirrored lapel, and I also have a silver studded double cross on the back. The mirrors were a bitch to iron on, and sometimes they fall off lol but so far they're all still intact. Wasn't sure if I will wear it but I think I will, it's just a bit of fun!!
Hopefully I will bump into some of at the venue!
I'm staying over night in London so I wont be able to post any pics or videos or anything until sometime on Friday, but will have my phone so hopefully can post some details soon after.

American Ligety grabs super-G gold
Svindal finally conquers Kitzbuhuel
Neureuther rallies for men's slalom win
Theodore Sharp "Ted" Ligety (born August 31, 1984, in Salt Lake City, Utah) is an American alpine ski racer. He was the 2006 Olympic gold medalist in combined and the two-time World Cup champion in giant slalom (2008 and 2010). Ligety won the gold medal in the giant slalom at the 2011 World Championships. As of February 2011, he has eight World Cup victories (all in giant slalom), 24 podiums, and 64 top-ten finishes.
Growing up in Park City, Utah, Ligety began skiing at two and racing at eleven. He attended The Winter Sports School and graduated in 2002. He was named to the U.S. Skiing Development Team and won a silver medal in slalom in the Junior World Cup in 2004. He made his first start in a World Cup event during the 2004 World Cup season in the giant slalom at Park City, and he was added to the U.S. Ski Team full-time in the 2005 season, during which he had four top-15 finishes in slalom, placing 24th overall in the discipline.
Ligety recorded his first World Cup podium finish in the first slalom of the season, at Beaver Creek in December, and followed that up with a second and a third during the next three slaloms. Ligety's first major victory of his professional career came at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, held at Sestriere. Ligety won the gold medal in the men's combined event, a major upset after the two racers favored to win the event failed to finish the slalom portion. At age 21, he became the first American man to win an Olympic gold medal in alpine skiing in a dozen years, since Tommy Moe won the downhill at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. Ligety also became just the fourth American male skier to win Olympic gold, along with Moe, Phil Mahre (slalom, 1984) and Bill Johnson (downhill, 1984). At Turin, Ligety also participated in the giant slalom and the slalom, but he failed to complete either event. Following his Olympic victory in the combined, Ligety recorded his first World Cup victory, a win in the giant slalom in Yongpyeong, South Korea. He finished ninth in the overall World Cup standings for the year, marking the first time that three American men had placed in the top 10 (along with Bode Miller in third and Daron Rahlves in fourth), despite the fact that he did not compete in downhill or Super G that year.

Did the Fed Just (Surreptitiously) Bail out all of Europe???
April 12, 2010, 01:15:58 PM »
No, not just Greece - all of Europe. Without Congressional authorization or notice, of course.
Hattip to a nice emailer....
Or if you prefer it on a one-year time scale...
That nice little vertical line is a gain of $421.8 billion dollars of outstanding loans and leases in one week's time.
You won't find anything like that in the records - because it's never happened before. That's beyond unprecedented, it's ridiculous, and assuming it's also accurate, someone has some 'splaining to do on what clearly appears to be some sort of back-door game being run.

Some more digging around FRED has found additional disturbing data. Specifically:
An $84.2 billion increase in one month, or annualized, a significantly more than 100% run rate?
Something's not right here folks. I can't find the rest of the one-week ramp yet, as the data is not current enough for me to do so, but that's an insane increase.
C&I loans picked up a bit (614 .vs. 591.
which is a significant move as well, but then again it also dropped a lot between 3-17 and 3-24 (605 to 591.
, so in context it's not nearly as material.
Where did the more than $400 billion go that was "borrowed"?
Update: It has been suggested that this may be related to the FASB changes and securitized loans coming back on the balance sheet. If so, wheres the alleged memorandum items on the other side and the footnote on FRED? The latter is missing, but the necessary data on FRED to confirm that is not yet updated.
Nonetheless, if this is the case, its still bad (just not catastrophic) as this will directly hit capital ratios. Or, put another way, wheres the additional capital that should be there to support what is now on balance sheet and was previously off (never mind that it was crooked as hell to have it off in the first place!)

"They'll Just Inflate Out of this Mess"
This is the most humorous thing I keep reading on the internet. Now, if someone had magical powers what are the waiting for if they can just inflate the system out of this mess? Why didn't they use this in ancient Rome? Heck, you would have thought Hilter with all his scientists could have figured out how to inflate out of the mess.
There is no inflating out of the mess, as you inflate you are actually getting closer to your ultimate doom. The current global financial credit system has been inflating for 66+ years, now it's not inflating. Now if you believe Helicopter Ben or Benny and the Jets can just endlessly drop money from the sky and produce credit, please have him send me over a pizza and 99 virgins oh and a 6 pack of beer.
Humans have no ability to supply exponential growth, there is no avoiding what is coming down the pike. Benny and the Jets do have enough power to effect the rate of decline, Benny does not have unlimited power to sustain the equation long-term.
If all it takes is putting a few digits in a computer, everyone go home and wait on all the virgins and pizzas to show up at your door and please send me a note as to how this all worked out for you.

IMF Prepares For Global Cataclysm, Expands Backup Rescue Facility By Half A Trillion For "Contribution To Global Financial Stability"
Tyler Durden's picture
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/12/2010 22:14 -0500
* Central Banks
* Fail
* Global Economy
* Greece
* International Monetary Fund
And all the pundits thought that the IMF would be on the hook for just 10 billion... The IMF has just announced that it is expanding its New Arrangement to Borrow (NAB) multilateral facility from its existing $50 billion by a whopping $500 billion (SDR333.5 billion), to $550 billion. The current lending participant group of 26 entities will be increased by 13 new members all of whom will contribute token amount of capital to the NAB. The one country most on the hook in the new and revised NAB - the United States of America, will provide over $105 billion in total commitments, or 20% of the total facility. The US is currently on the hook for just $10 billion, meaning its participation in global bail outs just increased by $95 billion. And the bulk of these bailouts will certainly be located across the Atlantic. What is most troublesome is the massive expansion of the NAR. If the IMF believes that over half a trillion in short-term funding is needed imminently, is all hell about to break loose.
Never one to present a realistic picture Dominique (or is that Mrs, Pisani?) Strauss-Khan said: "The expansion and enlargement of the NAB borrowing arrangements provides a very strong multilateral foundation for the Funds efforts in crisis prevention and resolution, as an essential back-stop to the Funds quota resources. This will help ensure that the Fund has access to adequate resources to help members that are vulnerable to financial crises."
If memory serves us right, the Fund's current resources give it acces to about a third of a trillion, so as of today the IMF has recourse funding to just under a trillion. Something big must be coming.
Some more details on the NAB from the just released PR:
The NAB is a standing set of credit arrangements under which participants commit resources to IMF lending when these are needed to supplement quota resources. The expanded NAB will become operational when it receives formal acceptances from the required proportion of current and potential participants, which will require legislative backing in some cases.1
The expansion of the NAB will make an important contribution to global financial stability, but it is not a substitute for a general increase in the Funds quota resources. The Fund is, and shall remain, a quota-based institution. It is important now that member countries rapidly take the necessary steps to make the increased resources available, Mr. Strauss-Kahn underscored.
The NAB is a credit arrangement between the IMF and a group of members and institutions to provide supplementary resources to the IMF when these are needed to forestall or cope with an impairment of the international monetary system. The NAB is supplementary to quota resources, which are made up of the quota subscriptions each country pays upon joining the Fund, broadly based on its relative size in the world economy. IMF members quotas currently total SDR 217.4 billion (about US$330 billion). Like quota allocations, the NAB is reviewed on a regular basis.
The recent unprecedented shock confronting the global economy has led to a sharp increase in the demand for IMF financing. To ensure that the IMF continues to have sufficient resources to meet demand, leaders of the G-20 agreed in April 2009 that immediate financing from members of US$250 billion would subsequently be folded into an expanded and more flexible NAB, increased by up to $500 billion. This call was endorsed by the IMFC. The G-20 leaders reaffirmed their commitment on September 25, 2009 to a tripling of the resources available to the IMF, from a pre-crisis level of about US$250 billion. At its meeting in October 2009, the IMFC welcomed the expected agreement to expand and enhance the NAB. Pending the entering into force of the expanded NAB, member countries have pledged more than $300 billion in immediate bilateral financing should the Fund require additional resources for lending.
We have a few questions:
1) Just where will central banks suddenly find access to over three hundred billion in SDRs (which is what this facility is based on)? Also, we are curious just how this SDR expansion will impact dollar levels. As the dollar is the primary component in the SDR basket (17%), banks will have to sell more dollars than other currencies on a pro rata basis to increase their SDR holdings. What will happen to the DXY when $85 billion new dollars flood the market via assorted CBs but mostly the FRBNY?
2) Who came up with the expansion factor? Why is Japan's allocation increasing by 18.7x, that of the US by 10.4x, while that of the Bundesbank only by 7.2x? We thought the IMF is more of a eurocentric bailout facility? Why does it fall upon the US taxpayers to disproprtionately bailout Greece?
3) What is the joke with having Greece join the group of new participants? The IMF sure has a sick sense of humor.
4) Curious how this comes the day before Greece is supposed to auction off some ultra-short term debt. If this facility is enacted, watch for socereign credit curves to hit 60 degrees, with near-term risk disappearing, once again courtesy of Joe Sixpack. We hope you pay your taxes by the April 15 deadline.
5) Funny money will galore. At this point nobody will allow anyone or anything to fail.
Here is the full table of old and existing contributors. Congrats US - you are once again leading the charge in the world bailout.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"We are very happy with our Sleek Chic Save the Dates. The best part is that we were able to customize the order to perfectly fit our vision. At no additional charge, WPD reformatted the postcards into flat cards (we did add personalized envelopes for an additional charge). Because we were using a black and white photo, we wanted more color on the card. WPD suggested using two shades of green for the design on the side as well as green font. We were also able to add our last names. I could not be more pleased with the customer service we received! We ended up asking for what felt like a lot of customization and WPD delivered 100%."
"We ordered these for our upcoming wedding in Maui. I absolutely love how they turned out! Great quality, and I've received many compliments on them. We wanted ours to be vertical for the picture we were using, and it was no issue. We also changed the ink on the front to black. I would definitely recommend these."
"Amazing! This product was great, and the service was surprisingly amazing! When I recieved them in hand, the quality was profesional, and looked amazing!"
"I had the postal stamp on the front changed to say "To Have and To Hold" v.s "Save The Date For Our Wedding". They did a wonderful job centering and making the change look great!"
"I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the postcard I received. We used an image from our engagement session and the colors turned out beautifully! The standard paper that was used was good, solid material. We had so many people tell us upon receipt of our Save the Date how professional it looked. Thanks Wedding Paper Divas!"

Edison, N.J. - The Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference concluded its annual series of spring league meetings last week. The MAAC Council of Presidents met at the Lotos Club in New York City, followed by the MAAC Committee on Athletic Administration and Men's & Women's Basketball Coaches meeting at the Boardwalk Hotel Conference Center in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. The league focused on the national realignment of NCAA Division I conferences and the league's on-going improvement of its broadcast and technology efforts.
On the subject of league realignment, the MAAC Presidents reiterated their long-term commitment to the 31-year-old conference that has focused on success in athletics with high standards of academic excellence and concern for student-athlete welfare. The league celebrated its first team national championship by a member school when Loyola University Maryland won the 2012 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship, while the MAAC ranked in the top 10% of Division I conferences in the NCAA academic success metrics.
The MAAC Presidents noted their previously-stated willingness to consider expansion of the 10 teams within the MAAC with new member institutions that meet the conference's criteria including:
- Institutions that strive for success in academics and athletics
- Institutions that share common admissions standards
- Institutions that desire to expand their enrollment base beyond traditional local markets
- Institutions that fund athletic programs within the same general expenditure range
- Institutions that place a focus on student-athletes and their welfare
- Institutions that feature basketball as their prominent sport
- Institutions that place value on the use of broadcasting on multiple distribution platforms
The MAAC Presidents also received a number of reports, including an update on basketball facilities upgrades, branding plans for the member institutions and the success of the inaugural neutral site MAAC Basketball Championships at the MassMutual Center in Springfield, Mass. It was noted that team fan travel to the championships exceeded expectations, and as a result, the MAAC Presidents requested expansion of fan room blocks for the 2013 championships. Additionally, the MAAC Presidents commended the MAAC staff and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame on the opening of the "MAAC Experience" and the inaugural MAAC Honor Roll Dinner at the Hall of Fame.
Moving forward, the MAAC Committee on Athletic Administration is focusing on the site selection of the 2015-18 MAAC Basketball Championships. The committee reviewed a draft of bid specifications for that cycle and initial discussions focused on a slight modification of the format that will reduce early morning games for the women's teams and the late game start for the last men's quarterfinal game on Saturday. General consensus was reached on the changes that will be presented to the MAAC Presidents at their December meeting for approval as part of the 2015-18 bids. The revised bid specifications are expected to be distributed to interested arenas in mid-March 2013, with a site decision scheduled for the MAAC Council of Presidents meeting in June 2013.
The MAAC Committee on Athletic Administration and basketball coaches reviewed technology changes and expansion of the MAAC/ESPN partnership with Dan Shoemaker of ESPN's Charlotte office and Mike Colangelo of ESPN3. The group endorsed a change in the MAAC's Preseason Awards Show that has historically taken place in October. The new format will have individual men's and women's shows broadcast on ESPN3 before the home openers of the previous year's champions - the Marist College women and the Loyola University Maryland men - as part of the opening day of the 2012-13 basketball season on Friday, November 9.
Details are in final development, but broadcast elements will include a review of the 2011-12 season, Preseason All-MAAC Team selections for the 2012-13 season and the announcement of the MAAC Preseason Players of the Year. Another focus of the productions will be the unveiling of the 2012 MAAC Championship banners at Marist and Loyola. As part of the show's production, the league members agreed to have its annual fall men's and women's basketball coaches meeting at the ESPN3 studio facilities at Walt Disney World, which will coordinate the filming of elements for the shows as well as regular-season production elements for the expanded 43-game broadcast package with ESPNU and ESPN3.
In-game production standards for the 2012-13 season broadcasts were also reviewed at the meetings, including coaches' interviews at the 12-minute marks of the broadcasts, pre-game locker room cut-ins and halftime interviews with student-athletes. It was noted that these production elements are becoming industry norms, and increased access is expected by broadcasters and fans to enhance the viewing experience.
For the 2013 MAAC Basketball Championships, the league also reviewed a new promotion entitled "Shooting for Springfield," which is designed to generate excitement and awareness within the communities of the MAAC member institutions, increase student attendance and promote general ticket sales. The event will take place the last two weeks of the season at the campuses of all the member institutions. It will be conducted by the MAAC Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, who will be seeking to garner the most student support on their campus in order to be awarded a grant for their designated charity or program enhancement.
In other business, the MAAC Committee on Athletic Administration amended the hosting requirement for MAAC championships to include a number of new broadcast requirements on MAAC.TV, including two-camera minimums, sideline interviews and awards banquet broadcasts. The plan initially focuses enhancements to the 2013-14 MAAC Championships webcasts in men's and women's soccer, volleyball, men's and women's lacrosse, water polo, softball and baseball. Efforts will be made to rollout these plans in the upcoming season, if possible.
NCAA governance and reform issues were the focus of meetings between the basketball coaches, the MAAC Committee on Athletic Administration and NCAA Division I Vice President David Berst. Topics reviewed included transfer rules, Academic Progress Rate (APR) standards and other topics of the reform agenda being pushed by NCAA President Mark Emmert.

Head coach Ed Blankmeyer is in his 18th season at the helm of the St. John's baseball program. In 17 seasons with the Red Storm, Blankmeyer is 589-350-3 and has led the squad to one NCAA Super Regional appearance, eight NCAA Regional appearances, three BIG EAST Tournament crowns and four BIG EAST regular season titles. St. John's has flourished in every season under the tutelage of Blankmeyer and his staff. Blankmeyer has guided St. John's to six 40-win seasons, six 30-win seasons and at least 29 wins in 15 of his 17 seasons. He has been named BIG EAST Coach of the Year a conference-record five, ABCA Northeast Region Coach of the Year four times, has had 77 All-BIG EAST selections and has seen 57 of his players drafted and/or signed to professional contracts. St. John's finished 36-22 (18-8) in 2011 and earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, its 33rd appearance overall and sixth in the last eight seasons, following second place finishes in both the BIG EAST Tournament and BIG EAST regular season. The Red Storm had four All-BIG EAST selections, including a conference-best three first team selections. All-American, Brooks Wallace Award Finalist, first team All-Region honoree and first team All-BIG EAST selection Joe Panik was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the first round (29th overall) of the 2011 MLB Draft, the Red Storm's highest selection since Craig Hansen was picked 26th overall in 2005. Paul Karmas, who became the program's new all-time hit king during the season, and Matt Wessinger were also drafted, while Joe Witkowski signed a free agent contract. In a season in which Blankmeyer notched his 500th career victory, St. John's set a new school-record with 43 wins in 2010 and won a conference-record sixth BIG EAST Tournament crown. The team also made the 32nd NCAA Tournament appearance in program history and reached the Charlottesville Regional finals. The squad was paced by an offense that set new school-records in runs scored (493), hits (750), doubles (150) and RBI (457), and a pitching staff that set a new mark for strikeouts (455). The NCBWA National Freshman Hitter of the Year, the Louisville Slugger Freshman Player of the Year and the BIG EAST Rookie of the Year, Jeremy Baltz became the first consensus All-American in school history after earning All-America honors from Baseball America (first team), the ABCA (second team), Louisville Slugger (second team) and the NCBWA (second team). Baltz, who led the nation's freshmen in both home runs and RBI, and classmate Kyle Hansen, who earned 2010 BIG EAST Tournament Most Outstanding Player honors, each earned Freshman All-America accolades and five players were All-BIG EAST selections. Four players--Daniel Burawa, Bruce Kern, Greg Hopkins and Ryan Cole--were selected in the 2010 MLB Draft, while Red Storm alumni Rob Delaney and Anthony Varvaro each made their MLB debuts. Blankmeyer spent the summer of 2010 as an assistant coach of the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team. The squad finished their summer tour with a 16-3 record and won the silver medal at the V FISU World University Baseball Championships in Tokyo, Japan. St. John's reached the BIG EAST Tournament for the sixth-straight year in 2009 and finished the season 30-22. A prolific offense set new school-records in batting average (.349), runs scored (473), RBI (440) and doubles (149). Five players earned All-BIG EAST honors and juniors Brian Kemp and Tim Morris were both drafted in the 2009 MLB Draft. Morris, who batted .415, set a new-school record for runs scored (69) and became the second player in school history to reach 90 hits in a season, earned third team All-America honors, while Joe Panik earned second team freshman All-America honors from the NCBWA. The team also played in front of the seventh-largest regular season crowd in NCAA baseball history (22,397) in the first-ever game at Citi Field, the new home of the New York Mets. The Red Storm won a school-record 42 games in 2008 to reach the 40-win plateau for the fourth-consecutive season. The squad also won its second-straight BIG EAST regular season crown and earned a bid to the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight season. Eight players earned All-BIG EAST accolades and George Brown became the program's fourth BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year. Brown was also named a second-team All-American, while Paul Karmas earned freshman All-America accolades. For the second season in a row and the third time in four seasons, Blankmeyer earned both BIG EAST and Northeast Region coach of the year honors. Five players, including four juniors, were drafted as Scott Barnes was taken in the 8th round and Justin Gutsie, Jared Yecker, George Brown and Colin Lynch were also selected. Utilizing a superb mix of pitching and offense, the 2007 Red Storm won 40 games for the third-straight season, won the BIG EAST regular season title and earned a bid to the NCAA Tournament via the Myrtle Beach Regional. For the second-straight season, the Red Storm was the only team in the country to finish in the top 10 nationally in both team batting average (seventh) and team ERA (tenth). A school record eight players earned All-BIG EAST honors, while Ryan Mahoney was named to the ABCA All-Northeast Region second team and Brian Kemp earned freshman All-America honors. Blankmeyer himself earned both BIG EAST and Northeast Region coach of the year honors for the second time in three seasons. The squad also saw three players sign professional contracts as Anthony Smith was drafted and both Sam DeLuca and Brendan Monaghan signed free agent deals. Despite losing seven players to professional baseball in 2005, the 2006 Red Storm won 40 games for the second season in a row and was a victory away from the BIG EAST Championship game. St. John's finished among the top 10 nationally in both team batting average (eighth) and earned run average (fifth). Will Vogl, who earned first team All-BIG EAST and third team All-America honors, and Rob Delaney each signed professional contracts to give Blankmeyer nine signings in a two-year span. A record seven players signed in 2005, including six selections in the Major League Baseball Draft. Reliever Craig Hansen headlined that list by being selected with the 26th overall pick by the Boston Red Sox. Anthony Varvaro, Greg Thomson, P.J. Antoniato, Joe Burke, Anthony Sullivan were also drafted, while Jim Wladyka signed as a free agent. It was that group of players that helped the squad finished 41-18 (19-4) to break a 27-year old school-record for wins in a single season. Blankmeyer earned his second-straight Northeast Coach of the Year honor as the Red Storm captured the BIG EAST regular season crown and reached the NCAA Tournament Picked to finish seventh in the league prior to the 2004 season, the team posted a 17-9 conference record to finish second in the league. St. John's finished 37-23 overall and advanced to the NCAA Tournament as an at-large participant. Blankmeyer was hired on Feb. 1, 1996, just five weeks before the season began, and led the Red Storm to a 26-18 record - an astonishing task, considering he had to evaluate his talent from indoor workouts and put a team on the field for the first time without ever having seen it play. Blankmeyer earned BIG EAST Coach of the Year honors after the Red Storm finished 14-10 in league play and finished third in the conference tournament. The very next season, the skipper guided the Red Storm to its first NCAA Regional appearance in five years and won the school's fifth BIG EAST Tournament Championship. The team finished 35-17, including a 16-7 conference record, to post the program's most wins since 1986. Despite losing his starting rotation to the 1997 MLB Draft, Blankmeyer still managed to lead his 1998 squad to a 28-17-1 record and an appearance in the conference postseason tournament. Blankmeyer had three players earn All-America honors, (Kevin McGerry, Keith Stamler and Mike Dzurilla) and as a result of his achievements, he was invited to participate in the NCAA Y.E.S. Clinic held in Omaha, Neb., during the 1998 College World Series. Prior to the 2001 season, Blankmeyer and the University oversaw the construction of The Ballpark at St. John's, a first-class facility equipped with an electronic scoreboard, press box, lighting and a public address system. Combined with the team's recent successes, Red Storm fans had plenty of reason for optimism heading into the 21st century. An excellent recruiter, Blankmeyer has coached more than 80 players that have gone on to play professional baseball, including major leaguers Mo Vaughn (1995 American League MVP), Craig Biggio, Matt Morris, John Valentin, Rob Delaney, Craig Hansen and Anthony Varvaro. In addition to his duties in the dugout, Blankmeyer has also been heavily involved in the management of collegiate baseball off the field. Prior to the 2008 season, Blankmeyer was appointed as a conference representative for the NCAA Baseball Selection Committee and was also named an ABCA Division I Eastern Regional chairman. Blankmeyer represented the ABCA at the 2007 MLB winter meetings in Nashville, Tenn., to discuss collegiate and professional baseball issues and was appointed to the American Baseball Coaches Association Editorial Committee and named President of the BIG EAST Baseball Coaches Committee prior to the 2006 season. An outstanding second baseman in his own right, Blankmeyer played four seasons at Seton Hall, hitting .320, with 152 hits and 66 stolen bases. He co-captained the 1976 Pirate team that went on to play in the NCAA Northeast Regional and was the starting second baseman for both the 1974 and 1975 Seton Hall squads that played in the College World Series. He was the Atlantic Collegiate League Most Valuable Player in 1975. Blankmeyer earned Academic All-America honors during his tour at Seton Hall and graduated in 1976. Following his graduation, he was a 21st-round pick of the Baltimore Orioles and spent one season in the Orioles farm system before beginning his coaching career. Blankmeyer has been inducted into both the Seton Hall and North Shore High School Halls of Fame. Blankmeyer and his wife, Susan, reside in Convent Station, N.J. They have two daughters, Brittany Leigh and Alison Joy, and one son, Taylor Edward. |

Hélène Grimaud comments about this concerto: "The Beethoven 4th Concerto for me is just one of the most beautiful things ever written for piano and orchestra, and I really believe to this day is still one of the most original ones. I mean, if you think about how the concerto starts, which for the time was a revolution, with the piano beginning the piece, and then of course the format of the second movement, and this dialog, it really remains one of the most incredible things ever written. And it has a special place in my heart amongst the five concerti. It's for me the most – this is going to sound bizarre – the most different. They're all different, of course, but this one really stands aside in the quality of expression and the sort of philosophical quality to the concerto. For me, it's a concerto that takes place already beyond the basic human emotions, unlike the other four."
Piano Concerto No. 4

Cincinnati Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls will lead a contingent of elected officials and community leaders on a road trip to Columbus on Monday to look at some apartment complexes built for homeless people there.
The group will tour two complexes built by National Church Residences (NCR) that provide permanent, supportive housing to formerly homeless individuals.
A bipartisan political action committee (PAC) that lobbies for "fair and just immigration laws" has selected Butler County's outspoken sheriff as one of 10 U.S. politicians inducted into its newly created Hall of Shame for local officials across the nation.
Immigrants' List says Sheriff Richard K. Jones was selected because the conservative Republican exploits fear and misinformation to make headlines and further his political ambitions.
Supporters of stricter gun control laws have long alleged that Ohio is a primary center for illegal firearm purchases, and a recent investigation by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg appears to confirm the point.
Bloomberg's office conducted a sting operation at a Sharonville gun show in late May and found that four sellers sold weapons to undercover investigators even though they told the sellers they probably couldn't pass required background checks, which is a violation of federal law.
A coalition of progressive groups will hold a national convention later this month in Madison, Wis., the site of a hard-fought political battle to protect collective bargaining rights for public-sector labor unions.
Democracy Convention 2011 is scheduled for Aug. 24-28, and is envisioned as the inaugural session of what will become an annual event. It will feature several conferences on topics like community organizing, curtailing corporate influence in politics, economic democracy, independent media and constitutional reform.
Hundreds of local people interested in rebuilding the economy instead of complaining about it gathered today for two sessions organized by Gov. Ted Strickland and State Sen. Eric Kearney (D-Avondale) to explain Ohio's portion of the federal stimulus package. Besides Strickland aides, representatives from the Ohio Department of Development, Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, Ohio Department of Administrative Services, Ohio Department of Transportation and the Ohio Benefit Bank were on hand to educate local small businesses and nonprofits about utilizing stimulus dollars.
Murder sucks. Rape sucks. In fact, all violent crime sucks. Eradicating it sure would make the world a nicer place to live. I don't know anyone who would argue with any of that. But after all that agreement, unity breaks down. Emotional outrage and grief take hold and rational thought evaporates. What then?
People who want to apply for the state of Ohio's new high-risk medical insurance pool can get free help at two upcoming events.
As part of recent health-care reforms, the state launched the high-risk insurance pool Aug. 1. The program is designed to offer affordable coverage to individuals who have been denied coverage in the past because of pre-existing medical conditions.
The report chronicles 30 different human trafficking investigations, which have resulted in 15 arrests and 17 prosecutions over the past year. Some of the investigations are still ongoing.

It does not augur well when you must suck in your gut and hold your breath as if you are having multiple X-rays taken simply to zip up your skirt.
When this happened to me, I knew I had two choices: give up my current wardrobe or lose the excess baggage. Since I recently wrote a book on diet and exercise that ended with my buying a new, smaller wardrobe, I decided it would be too embarrassing to blow up like Kirstie Alley. Better that I should return to vigorous exercise and horrid Weight Watcher bars. I perused several fitness magazines I had at home and found an article about walking.
"Brisk walking is one of the best forms of cardiovascular exercise, even for out-of-shape marshmallows like you," the article explained. "It is suitable for all ages and abilities and requires no special equipment beyond a good pair of walking shoes and a commitment not to double-dip into the cookie jar. A simple, affordable pedometer or step counter can help motivate you to a more active lifestyle."

Creative Spotlight: Ryan Garratt on Adobe Ideas
Recently, Adobe Ideas v2.5 was released on iOS and our fans love it! For over a year now, graphic designer and Touch Apps user Ryan Garratt (@NemesisGraphics) has continued to improve his creative process and creations with each update to Ideas. Excited about the update, Ryan connected with us over Twitter to let us know what he really loves about the update and provided us useful pointers for both rookie and veteran users.
Read on to learn more and be sure to visit our Adobe Touch Apps Facebook and Twitter channels to see his work on display. Also, check out the Adobe TV video after the Q&A to learn more about what's new in Adobe Ideas v2.5.
Adobe: Have you had a chance to try out the new features in Adobe Ideas v 2.5? Which are your favorites?
Ryan: The update is SUPERB! The addition of the new preset tools is fantastic and the paintbrush is possibly my favorite addition to the arsenal, as I really enjoy how you can vary the strokes to give power lines to work. The paint bucket fill is an absolute genius addition as well. Before it would be a case of coloring and getting a few spots that you had missed, but with the new fill bucket it increases productivity and efficiency. Needless to say, I was really excited when the update came out.
What tips/suggestions do you have for creative individuals thinking about getting into Adobe Ideas?
Enjoy what you do. I recommend having a stylus on hand and find somewhere you can relax. Experiment as well – try different opacity settings and line thickness. It's all about finding your style!
For Ideas veterans like yourself, what tips and/or techniques can you offer them to improve their creative workflow?
Just enjoy what you're doing! I absolutely love what i do and think that fuels me to keep creating. Also, keep everything you do, regardless of whether it's a quick doodle or masterpiece. To look back on and see your journey progress is critical.
Which pairing of the Touch Apps and CS6 products are most instrumental to your creative process and why?
I would have to say Illustrator. I can sketch something roughly on my iPad using Ideas, and after uploading it I can use Illustrator to clean up and tweak everything. The live trace preset is fantastic.
How much of a difference has direct touch input made to your creations?
Immensely! I take my iPad and stylus with me everywhere… just in case the mood to draw strikes me. Uploading to a computer from anywhere makes life extremely easy and 100% more efficient. Its' been a huge help and boosted my ability and workflow.
Anything else you would like to say?
If you don't already own any of the Adobe Touch Apps, I strongly recommend getting them. They are enjoyable and easy to use, and not to mention they are very powerful tools for creating. Without them, I don't think I could draw. I can't recommend them enough!

Direct drop-in replacement for Fender standard 11- hole pickguards.
The prewired DiMarzio FG2108 Pickguard is for Strat-style electric guitars with standard 11-hole pickguards. It's got H-4 DP217 pickups in the neck and middle positions and an HS-3 pickup in the bridge position.
The HS-4 pickups provide plenty of presence and brilliance, particularly on the high strings, yet yield no 60-cycle hum. The HS-3 is known for being a smooth and relatively quiet pickup that produces a sweet overdrive tone without jagged edges. These qualities combine perfectly with a heavily distorted amp, because the sound won't get muddy or messy.
