Three easy steps to localize your user experience.
The rapid success of sites such as Groupon and Foursquare highlight the value and appetite for local content. By featuring local deals and specials, these companies are taking the concept of relevancy down to the Zip Code. However, not just social or couponing sites can benefit from providing a local view into products, services, and support. For many organizations, localizing content can improve the relevancy of content and information – and can even be optimized to respond to regional variations in everything from seasonal goods to pricing.
Product Feature
Featuring locally-relevant products is one of the primary ways retailers of all sizes can take advantage of geo-targeting. For example, a national sporting goods chain may feature Cubs jerseys for audiences coming from the Midwest, but for fans coming from Miami, Heat jerseys would be a much more logical choice. Without any structural changes to the site, the organization is making an easy change to improve content relevance. This can be done without complex segmentation, profiling, or ad network data. In fact, ESPN.com is taking it one step further. It is now producing fully localized versions of its site, with unique articles, features, and imagery for its largest markets – Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Dallas, and Boston.
How many space heaters does Home Depot sell in the south? Probably very few – outside of December, where temperatures may drop in the 50s for a day or two. But in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, customers who are digging out of one of the coldest and snowiest winters on record are much more likely to be in need of a little extra warmth. HomeDepot.com uses its "Items You May Like" component on its home page to feature locally relevant content – visitors coming to the site from Chicago are seeing space heaters in two of the six promotional areas – while visitors from Miami are targeted with promotions for outdoor patios. This is a way to show the visitors you recognize their needs and are not treating all visitors to a generic experience.
From gallons of gas to pints of milk, regional variation in pricing is not only a topic of conversation between relatives in distant locations, but a frequent occurrence for online shoppers. When entering a new market or fighting an intense regional battle, retailers tend to have very competitive prices, both in store and online. But in markets where there is less competition, or less of a market for certain products, prices may rise. For products or services where multiple vendors are selling the same thing – such as installation of cable or home security systems – the third-party vendors are often able to set their own prices, encouraging further volatility in the online pricing of goods. You can see this on their sites and when searching for new services. This is especially prevalent in paid search and display advertising, where the vendors use price to capture a lead before converting the user.
Whether you are a national retailer looking to shed the "big box" personality or a local retailer looking to take advantage of your insight into regional preferences and trends, localizing content provides a compelling option to personalize the user experience without having to invest in extensive profiling or targeting strategies.

WikiLeaks suspect being moved out of Quantico
WASHINGTON The Army private suspected of giving classified data to WikiLeaks is being flown to a state-of-the-art facility at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas, where Pentagon officials said more extensive mental, emotional and physical health care will be available.
The Pentagon said Wednesday that Manning was en route to the facility at midday.
Jeh Johnson, the Pentagon's top lawyer, said the move does not suggest that Army Pfc. Bradley Manning's treatment at the Marine Corps base at Quantico, Va., was inappropriate.
But the transfer comes in the wake of international criticism about Manning's treatment during his detention at the Marine Corps base at Quantico. And the conditions of Manning's detention have been the focus of repeated protests from human rights groups and lawmakers.
Johnson, however, said that "The fact that we have made a decision to transfer this particular pretrial confine ... should not be interpreted as a criticism of the place he was before."
In response, Manning's lawyer, David Coombs, wrote on his blog that Manning's treatment at Quantico was substandard.
"While the defense hopes that the move to Fort Leavenworth will result in the improvement of Pfc. Manning's conditions of confinement, it nonetheless intends to pursue redress at the appropriate time for the flagrant violations of his constitutional rights by the Quantico confinement facility," Coombs wrote.
Speaking to reporters Tuesday during a hastily arranged briefing, Johnson and Army Undersecretary Joseph Westphal acknowledged that the brig at Quantico was not designed to hold pretrial detainees for more than a few months.
"This is the right decision, at the right time," said Westphal. "We were looking at a situation where he would need an environment more conducive for a longer detention."
The new facility, they said, will be more open, have more space, and Manning will have a greater opportunity to eat and interact with other prisoners there. They added that the move was in Manning's best interest because Leavenworth's Joint Regional Correctional Facility has a broader array of facilities, including trained mental, emotional and physical health staff.
Lt. Col. Dawn Hilton, who is in charge of the medium-security detention facility at Leavenworth, said Manning will undergo a comprehensive evaluation upon his arrival to assess whether he is a risk to his own or others' safety. The 150 inmates there - including eight who are awaiting trial - are allowed three hours of recreation per day, she said, and three meals a day in a dining area.
She said the facility, which opened in January, is designed for long-term detention of pretrial inmates. Officials agreed that Manning's case, which involves hundreds of thousands of highly sensitive and classified documents, is very complex and could drag on for months, if not years.
Johnson said that Manning, who has been at Quantico for more than eight months, can be moved now because his interview in the Washington region to determine his competency to stand trial has been completed. That interview lasted one day and was done April 9.
Manning faces nearly two dozen charges, including aiding the enemy, a crime that can bring the death penalty or life in prison.

|btw, please ignore the mess in the background. I ran out of places to put all the stuff that came out of the kitchen.
- Posted by desertsteph (My Page) on Mon, Jul 30, 12 at 23:48
|I think I'd like it at least partially opened up. Is that enough of a beam to keep things from caving in on you? doesn't look like the beam is big enough or hooked to anything once the studs come down.
the LR looks rather skinny - or is that an optical illusion/camera thing? If skinny, it'd make it seem more spacious.
You'd also be able to see the FP when in use from the kitchen while you're cooking and visit with anyone in the LR.
btw, I didn't see any arrows. not unusual. they could be huge and I'd miss 'em.
|The arrows are red at the top of the photo.
The beam is actually two 2x12's nailed together, with posts on each end holding it up. That will support the wall.
Yes, the living room is fairly narrow, about 14x21 I think.

|LOL Marti I had to go back to look for the mess. I was too busy looking for the arrows. I see them now.
That sure is a pretty inspiration picture. I agree the higher ceiling would make a difference. That is great you already have a beam in place. Now all you have to do is make your decision. I remember you had a concern seeing too much into the kitchen from the front door? Right. That was you?
I would think if you have an actual bar area there in an opening you all would be looking right into the kitchen all the time. But then it gives a nice conversation space. How often do you have the situation arise to have people sitting at that bar if you had one?
Hummmm Glad it is your decision.
|Yes, that was my concern shades. But I'm also wondering about resale, especially with dh's recent job scare, and he's not really out of the woods. It seems that people buying homes (reading here & seeing on tv) want an open floor plan, and that's not really what we have. But I also wonder if opening it up more would make our house seem smaller, iykwim?
About sitting at the bar, no, except when company comes over and sits at the bar while I work, very few people would sit at the bar. Dh & I might once in a while to eat breakfast, but we had a bar in here originally, and now that I'm older, I don't find bar stools really comfortable. With the table a few feet away now, I think we'd much prefer to sit there.
Another thing, that I realized last night, is if we put a bar in there, it will prevent me from putting another table beside my dining table for big dinners.
So between the keyhole look and that, I think I've talked myself out of it. Waffle, waffle. I should go into politics. lol

|Oh, I would definitely open it up and make it like your first picture...and I like the colors and fabrics, too! It opens up the space and you can see the fireplace, from the kitchen.
For holidays (when you have all those extra people around to help) what about moving the tables into the fireplace room and having the seating area in the dining space? Then, you can switch it back, but it would give you a larger dining area, when you need it...and you're not the one moving furniture :)
As for the bar, I like it and I think it will be great for resale. My advice...invest in comfortable, heavy duty, metal stools. Kids can climb up them and people can lean in them...and they don't fall over. Make sure they also have foot rests and ideally, swivel...at least a little. Lots of people seem to 'skimp' on barstools, but they can be such a safety factor...and you want them to be comfortable, too!

|"The arrows are red at the top of the photo."
well, DUH on me! I should have looked again...(tho I think I did!) face it - I'm blind.
14 wide isn't really that skinny. My old (in 70's) LR was about that x 24. kitchen was the same.
Were you going to keep the soffit area up there?
How about a partial bar area? I don't care for bar type stools either these days. My sister has them but I've never seen them being used. Maybe when her kids come visit. They aren't really young anymore either. Her youngest is 30. The oldest is pushing 50! Maybe the gkids - her youngest is 19.
I do think opening it up some would be good. More open area for you and dh. You won't be so closed off in the kitchen.
Why would it keep you from adding another table next to your DR table? The LR doesn't connect to the DR space. Does it?
|No, the dining table would expand into the kitchen. We're going to keep part of the soffit, but the part where the sheetrock is gone will come down.

|We have an 11 foot opening from living room into dinning room kitchen.There could have been a bar and I nixed it. I wanted the open feeling more than a bar. Our ceilings are 9 foot high at top of the vault. From my chair in living room which would be at your fireplace I totally look at all of the kitchen. Partly why I built that goofy mosaic lamp. I was not a fan of looking at the coffee pot. Even so I look at it some but the lamp does make a bit of a room divider for that part of the counter.
I was totally anal about doing the dishes. That is until my hands got so bad. :^( Gloving up and all of that is such a pain I will usually leave the lunch dishes until after dinner , down in the sink, or wash them up while I am gloved to cook dinner.
I do enjoy people sitting in our dinning room to visit while I cook. Even my husband sits there some times.
Great idea to be able to expand table from dinning room into kitchen for large gatherings.

|I agree with Lavender--open it up.
Anyone who buys the house will like the openness. I do not like open plans in large houses, they are not comfortable. You can always create "comfy" delineations of space when it's open.(LL's plans have a lot of these areas I noticed) I think of it this way, pubs when done correctly manage to create areas for conversation, areas for card games and drinking/eating. Yes I admit it pubs are my model for home design...I've been to the most basic old style pubs(original worn floors, original cabinets) that rival many houses I have seen for "warmth".
If you leave the walls partially closed it's more trouble and expense for the next owner.
I knocked out one tiny (TINY)coat closet in my kitchen entryway and I COULD NOT BELIEVE THE RUBBLE that poured down(from the space above).
If you decide not to do a bar, can you somehow place comfortable chairs/small couch facing the kitchen(maybe w/ a sofa table behind the couch). I love the idea of having someone near or in the kitchen while I'm cooking. When we were working on the other rooms we kept moving the furniture around out of the way. Everyone loved to sit in the upholstered chair squished into the corner of the kitchen.

|EAT- Thank you...that's very nice of you to say :)
I like your idea of comparing cozy/comfy spaces with pubs! That is so true. Pubs are a great inspiration for home design, IMHO.
Marti- If you don't want stool seating...what about bookcases instead? Then, you'd have room for display/storage if you need it...and still have a more open space. Not exactly your cabinet style....but something like this? Either open shelves or with glass doors.
- Posted by EATREALFOOD (My Page) on Mon, Aug 6, 12 at 8:27
|LL you and boxer pups post the best photos.
*when I buy a (small--ha ha!) house you will be called upon for design/inspiration photos, you have great taste! But we just got the counters in & now I can't bear to give up this kitchen...well we didn't buy anything yet so no panic needed.

The public discussion of surveillance one year on from the Snowden revelations remains a search for the biggest sinner.

In separate lawsuits, plaintiffs alleged Facebook and Zynga violated the Stored Communications Act (in Zynga's case, also the Wiretap Act). The crux of plaintiffs' allegations was that when a Facebook user clicked on an ad or a link, the HTTP request sent by the browser included the user's Facebook ID and the address of the webpage the user was viewing when he or she clicked the link.

The Internet was replaced by a dual system created in 2014: a fiber optic network called "Net2Cash". It has a speed of one hundred Petabits per second (equivalent to 100 million Gigabits per second or 100,000 million Megabits per second). We no longer talk about Megabytes or Gigabytes because that is old school.

The internet affects every individual in this world whether directly or indirectly. For example, a medical professional somewhere in Goma, Congo might access the internet to read and post reviews to current medication available and this might have an impact on the kind of medication that he/she recommends to the patient, whether the patient has access to affordable internet or not. Since the internet affects everyone, Africans citizens who are aware of internet governance discussions, expect African stakeholders to engage in these discussions. more»
ICANN has been sent a letter by the European Data Protection Supervisor calling them out with respect to both data collection, retention and privacy within the context of the 2013 Registrar contract (RAA).

Recently during an afternoon meeting with a friend of mine, Bob Ochieng, who happens to work for ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) Africa Operations, he lamented that at online Internet Governance discussions fora such as CircleID, and 1net.org, there is no serious frequent engagements from African Voices.

From high-profile data breaches to increasingly sophisticated tracking systems, the issue of consumer privacy is earning a lot of headlines these days.

I just installed Karoshi using the ISO in Parallels on OS X. It works a charm. Now I'm in Management User mode having installed Karoshi as a PDC (Xen). I like the look of this.
Is there any documentation lying around about karoshi- management, configuration etc?
FWIW, I gave the Parallels VM 512MB RAM and the system flies! The resolution settings are funky, but setting it to 1024x768 works very well. The cursor can be sporadic too when logging in, but apart from that it's great.

iPhone 5 again rumored to have NFC
It's a game of rumor volleying when it comes to the iPhone 5 and Near Field Communication. Early rumors suggested the iPhone 5 would include NFC technology, but recent information from UK-based The Independent hinted Apple would launch its own NFC-based payment system with the iPhone 6. Now that we have adapted to the idea of an NFC-less iPhone 5, Forbes has charged in with another rumor that places NFC back in the upcoming smartphone.
The source of this rumor is a friend of an entrepreneur who is working with Apple on a "top secret" NFC product. The unnamed individual believes the fruits of the friend's labor will debut in the iPhone 5. The source also claims manufacturers of NFC readers are preparing for a deluge of business when the iPhone 5 hits this summer.
While the possibility of NFC is exciting, the Forbes report is based on second-hand information and cannot be corroborated. Yes, it is possible the iPhone 5 will include an NFC mobile payment system, but it is not a guarantee by any stretch of the imagination. Sit tight and wait for the iPhone 5 rumor mill to kick into overdrive in the next few months before you start investing in VeriFone and other NFC makers.

Vortex Corporation, a company that manufactures chemical-free water and air purification products for consumer and commercial use, was named in a recent Red Herring Research Report as one of 12 private companies with potentially disruptive technologies in the emerging residential water treatment market. In the CleanTech water technology market report, "Liquid Assets: Residential Water Technologies," Red Herring Research stated there is "great opportunity" for the targeted companies to gain a "significant share" of the global water treatment market over the next few years.
Vortex¹s photo-oxidation technology simulates the environment¹s natural water purification phenomenon by way of an application of ultraviolet light and ozone technology applicable and scalable to a range of water-purification solutions. The newly redesigned Vortex Water Machine, a residential water treatment point-of-use (POU) device, is now modular and easier and safer to use, providing drinking water. Vortex has developed a whole-house system in conjunction with co-development partner, the University of Arizona¹s Water Quality Center, a leading authority on drinking water issues. This Point of Entry (POE) system ensures high quality water in residential showers, laundries, and sinks. Vortex is currently working to develop a ground water treatment system and expects to conduct a field trial with a major utility later this year. Vortex recently moved manufacturing to China to accommodate global demand for its products, particularly in Asia.

Legislative Tracker
> corporation commission rules; legislative approval
Our Position: oppose
Bill Number: HB2789
Sponsor: Lesko, Harper, Kavanagh, et al.
Legislative Session: 2012 Legislative Session
To find contact information for both senators and representatives, click on Member Roster.
To see how your representatives voted, just click on HB2789 House Vote.
The Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) is a constitutional body and the commissioners are elected officials. A great deal of the ACCs authority comes from the Arizona Constitution and as noted above, the ACC has exclusive authority over ratemaking. It also has authority over issues that are relevant to effective ratemaking. The Courts agree and just ruled on this very issue last year, saying that the Renewable Energy Standard was within the ACC's constitutional ratemaking authority.
This bill is all about creating another court case for Goldwater Institute, which would like another bite at the apple, when it just lost this case last year. Pushing the bill just so they can have a lawsuit is an abuse of the legislative process and the courts.
The bill sponsor says that if they let the court case stand then the Arizona Legislature cannot make energy policy. That is false. The legislature can make energy policy, provided it does not infringe on the ratemaking authority of the ACC. For example, it could put in place a statewide energy efficiency code for buildings.
Why would Arizona cap our REST at 15% when already our neighbors are exceeding that requirement, including California, which has a 33% standard and Colorado, which has a 30% standard? This will just help send more of the solar industry and the associated jobs to our neighbor to the west.
In addition to its constitutional issues, the bill is an attempt to undermine renewable energy programs in Arizona, which have made significant progress due in part to the REST. There is strong public support for renewable energy, especially distributed solar, why would the legislature want to stand in the way of advancing them?
Renewable energy programs are good for air and water and good for the economy, creating jobs and keeping more of our energy dollars here in Arizona.
This measure introduces more uncertainty into the solar market, which is clearly bad for business and why the solar energy companies, large and small, are opposing this bill.

Cleveland Indians (13-20)@
Baltimore Orioles (12-24)
Friday, May 14
Oriole Park at Camden Yards
Attendance: 25,902
Game Leaders
L: Masterson
(0-4) 5.92 era
W: Guthrie
(2-4) 4.13 era
Baltimore, MD (Sports Network) - Miguel Tejada went 2-for-4 with a run scored and three RBI, and three different Orioles had three-hit games, as Baltimore downed Cleveland, 8-1, to open a three-game series at Camden Yards.
Luke Scott, Ty Wigginton and Corey Patterson each had three hits, with Scott knocking in two runs and Wigginton another for the Orioles, who outhit the opposition, 14-3, for their third straight win.
Adam Jones went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI behind a highly effective Jeremy Guthrie (2-4), who held the Indians to one run on two hits and one walk in an eight-inning start. Guthrie also fanned five.
Travis Hafner hit two singles and Jhonny Peralta had an RBI base hit to account for Cleveland's only offense. Justin Masterson (0-4) surrendered six runs on eight hits and five walks in 5 1/3 innings to take the loss, the club's second straight on the heels of a three-game winning streak.
"It's a humbling game," Indians head coach Manny Acta said. "We thought we were going to come out and score a bunch of runs [this season]. We're still expecting our guys to break out offensively and things will get better for us."
Consecutive walks to open the sixth paved the way for the Orioles to pad their 2-1 lead. Jones grounded out to move both runners into scoring position, and Nick Markakis was given a free pass to load the bases.
The last batter Masterson faced was Tejada, who singled up the middle to bring in a pair. Aaron Laffey came in from the bullpen and yielded consecutive run- scoring base hits to Scott and Wigginton for a five-run game.
Tejada tacked on a run-scoring single off Rafael Perez in the seventh, and Wigginton scored on a wild pitch an inning later for the game's final run.
After a 67-minute rain delay, Peralta gave the Indians an early lead by driving in Shin-Soo Choo with a two-out single to left. Guthrie proceeded to retire the next 16 hitters he faced.
"I was in one of those grooves and I didn't know what was happening," Guthrie said. "It was good. I kept the pitch count down."
The hosts took the lead for good in the third when Jones tripled home Patterson and scored on Scott's single to right.

The first-ever Tea Party convention kicks off today at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville, and, when it closes with a banquet on Saturday night, Sarah Palin will take the stage as the event's only marquee speaker--and opinions vary on whether it's a good or bad move, politically, for her to be there.
The convention has been fraught with criticism from segments of the Tea Party movement--activists who protest the $549 ticket prices and the for-profit status of the group that's putting it on as a sign that it's not truly "grassroots"--and Palin's appearance has driven some of that criticism. She's rumored to be getting $100,000 for her keynote speech (her going rate, according to documents obtained by Politico), and the big bucks have turned off some Tea Party activists who don't want to be associated with the convention, which is being put on by the group Tea Party Nation.
Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) were scheduled to speak but dropped off the list (convention organizers say it was because of conflicting information from the House ethics committee), leaving Palin as the only conservative star in attendance.
Now, some of those activists who have criticized the convention say
Palin could be making a mistake in appearing there: it may cost her some
support among the conservative grassroots, they suggest, and opinions
conflict on whether Palin's speech is a mistake or a boon to the movement.
"We're getting massive grassroots input that they're unhappy with what she's doing right now," said Jenny Beth Martin, co-founder of the group Tea Party Patriots, a national grassroots coordinating group with state and local chapters, which seeks to communicate with smaller independent groups across the nation. Martin's group claims to have 15 million members nationwide, and Martin says it rejected an invitation to be part of the convention.
One of those unhappy activists is Robin Stublen, 53, of Punta Gorda, Florida, who owns a grass maintenance and pest control business and runs the Punta Gorda Tea Party. Stublen says he had been active in local politics for years before the Tea Parties came about and was drawn to the movement by the now-infamous rant of CNBC's Rick Santelli and the protests across the country on Feb. 27 last year.
"She's got some problems, and I don't think she realizes the problems," Stublen said of Palin's involvement with the Nashville convention. "It's a shame, because I don't think she knows what she's gotten herself into."
"This has nothing to do with the grassroots movement--nothing," Stublen said of the convention, citing its ticket prices. Stublen said a lot of the people attending are probably "grassroots people that have saved up...thinking it was something other than it was." He says he likes Palin, though he hasn't made up his mind on her as a 2012 candidate. ("I like her...I just find her to be a very nice person," Stublen said.)
Stublen also criticized Palin's involvement with Tea Party Express--whose 2010 kickoff event Palin will attend on March 27 in Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's (D-NV) hometown of Searchlight, Nevada--a nationwide Tea Party bus tour that has been criticized by some of the same Tea Partiers who don't like the convention. Stublen's allegation: that it's not truly grassroots, but rather a GOP-affiliated AstroTurf operation.

From the moment we arrived until we left we were looked after
superbly. The staff are professional and well trained, nothing is a
problem to them. The room was upgraded for us for our anniversary
which was a really nice touch. We cant wait for another special
occassion to spoil ourselves - Anonymous
Very friendly staff at reception, made us feel very welcome, in fact we this was a common thing we found in Belfast. Had a meal in RGB restaurant and it was excellent. Staff here did great work despite being very busy and perhaps a little understaffed. Breakfast next morning was buffet and was excellent. It was not included in room charge and was an extra £10.00 but worth it. - Gerry
The cleaness - Declan
The beds were the most comfortable we've ever slept in and the rooms were large, clean and modern...and warm - Rebecca
The staff at the Belfast Hilton were extremely helpful and forthcoming. The rooms were spacious, clean and the bed was amazing to sleep in. I never wanted to get out of it. As people say you get what you pay for and the amount I paid for two nights (which included a fabulous and varied breakfast) was definately value for money. I would most definately recommend this hotel to friends and family. - Clodagh
1st of many visits to Belfast for business purposes,i brought my wife along this time as it was a fact finding visit for me and as i only had 2 meetings throughout 3 days within the area so i thought id make the most of getting away for a rest, she loved the staff, the hotel itself,and the indian restaraunt. For me the staff were very professional and helpful,the hotel was very impressive and very clean - Steven
The location was excelllent. The leisure facilities were brilliant. Most unexpected - usually a central location does not have leisure facilities as well. It was also good that breakfast was served until 11.00am at weekends. - Sylvia

Nuclear reactors in Canada
Greenpeace fights nuclear power because it poses a serious threat to the environment and humanity. The expansion of nuclear power must be halted and nuclear plants shut down so that we can develop a clean energy future. That's why we are working to stop Darlington in Ontario and protect electricity consumers from a new round of nuclear debt.
The current provincial government wants to spend $36 billions to rebuild aging reactors and build new one at the Darlington nuclear station. Ontario can't afford to spend billions on nuclear power and not foster renewabile energy, which is our hope for long term growth. That's why we say Don't nuke green energy. This is the wrong path for Canada.
Every dollar governments and the nuclear industry spend repairing old reactors and building new ones reduces our chance to build Canada's future on sustainable energy.
Greenpeace's "Don't Nuke Green Energy" campaign is working for energy systems that fight climate change and improve our economy. We want an Energy [R]evolution with clean, renewable energy — wind, water, solar and local generation — that will transform our economy for the better.
Our campaign exposes the subsidies and sweetheart deals for the nuclear industry that undermine the growth of green energy.
