For the first time since 2004, the New York Times has made changes to their children's bestseller lists. Up to this change, there were picture book, chapter book, paperback and series lists, with ten titles on each list (see here, though you'll have to scroll down and click on the link for each list individually). There were complaints about the list (there are always complaints about the list), and publishers had been pushing for more space, especially as children's sales increased dramatically. For comparison, the adult hardcover fiction list has fifteen slots, plus twenty on the extended list, for thirty-five slots total. In addition, many of us in the industry have complained about non-fiction titles dominating the chapter book list, particularly some licensed, toy-based books. The bestseller list is an important sales tool, not just an indicator of sales, and we know that the "New York Times Bestseller" designation for a book and author mean more attention from stores, libraries and consumers. Those of us bothered by the inclusion of those books felt that there were other titles that would benefit more from the attention that making the list brings, whereas these branded books would sell the same number of copies, with or without the designation. It's not that they don't deserve to be on a list; the chapter book list just seemed an odd fit.
So, when I heard from a source that the lists would be changing, I was hopeful. Sadly, this is definitely a case of "be careful what you wish for." In their statement that proceeds the new list, the Times says they've made these changes in the list to reflect the changes in the book world, i.e. e-books. So now they have a picture book, middle grade, young adult, and series lists. The lists are format agnostic, so all hardcover, paperback and e-book sales on a title are included in the count. In addition, the MG and YA lists now include a short, five-slot extended list.
This all seems like it should be positive. I've been arguing that e-book sales should count towards the list, and there are ten new slots. But looking at the results for the first week, it's disappointing. In splitting the books onto MG and YA (I can't wait for when the Times puts a book on the "wrong" list), all of the children's non-fiction, including those licensed books that drive me nuts, moved to the MG list. As such, eight of the top ten are nonfiction, and only two of those are narrative. The YA list is free of non-fiction, which is great. And it's nice to see the quality, depth and breadth of the books on the list. But digging into the sales numbers a bit, it's clear just how disadvantaged MG books are. Without the non-fiction to compete with, the YA list features titles on the main list that aren't selling as well as some of the titles on the MG extended list. I'm basing this on one list, but from what I can see, it's going to be much more difficult to have a MG bestseller than a YA one.
Though we know the times is now tracking hardcover, paperback and e-book sales for each title, it's also unclear how the sales are weighted (and the Times guards their formula closely). The biggest question in this regard are about e-books. Are they tracking self-published books that are categorized as YA or MG? Does the price of the book effect the weighting? Could a publisher put an e-book on sale and watch their book jump onto the list? Making the list has always had an element of gamesmanship (colleagues and I like to joke about which book will magically land in the #10 spot, oftentimes despite dismal sales), but I think we're in for an intense period of experimentation to see how e-book sales impact recognition.
And, I have one last complaint. With the start of the new MG and YA lists, the Times has reset each title's "weeks on the list" count to 1. That means that Markus Zusak's THE BOOK THIEF went from 272 weeks on the list back down to 1. It's going to make it awfully tough for the next few months to easily see which books have been successful in the long run. Over time, this would cease to be an issue, but I hope the Times figures out a way to restore those "weeks on" counts.
End of rant. Any thoughts about the new lists and their impact?

Buffalo Sabres Forums
While it was only a preseason game, for the first time in five years, Buffalo fielded a professional football team. On a crystal clear August night in Baltimore, the Buffalo Bisons took on the Miami Seahawks. The highest priority for both squads was talent evaluation, as both teams fielded their entire roster for the game. The clubs needed to cut their rosters to the league-mandated thirty-three players before the beginning of the season a mere nine days later. It would not be easy for either squad.
Both teams stuck to their ground attack, which paid dividends for Miami first. Fifteen seconds into the second quarter, former Alabama star Jimmy Nelson crossed the line on a six-yard run. Buffalo quickly answered with a fifty-yard run from Notre Dame back Steve Juzwik. Buffalo would rack up two more scoring drives in the second period: the first from Cornell's Ken Stofer, who ripped off a thirty-two yard scamper and former Pittsburgh Panther and Chicago Cardinal player Bill Daddio capped the quarter's scoring with a twenty-three yard field goal.
Miami started to put things together in the third quarter, but it was not until the fourth period before they were able to cross the goal line again. Buffalo's Bob Thurbon increased the Buffalo lead to 23-7 on a fifty-five yard run, but it was all Miami for the rest of the game. Preston Johnson out of S.M.U. had given his team a much needed spark with his twenty-yard scoring run. Miami was down 23-14, when Jim Tarrant connected on a thirty-five yard pass to Jimmy Nelson, who made a heroic catch to bring the Seahawks to within striking distance. It was too little – too late as the final buzzer sounded with Buffalo taking the 23-21 victory and momentum going into the season.
The Miami Seahawks only lasted one year. After finishing the season 3-11 (depressingly enough, two of those wins came against the Buffalo Bisons), the Seahawks folded due to substantial debt. The team was purchased by Baltimore business interests, moved to Baltimore and renamed the Colts. This Colts franchise would be one of the three teams to make it into the NFL in 1950 (the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers were the other two teams). With the allocation of talent from the remaining AAFC teams when the league folded, several Buffalo players made their way on to the Colts squad. Defensive tackle and Hall of Famer Art Donovan was a draft pick of the Bills, but did not graduate college until 1950 and therefore did not play for Buffalo. End Ed King, fullback Vito Kissell, halfback Bob Livingstone, halfback Chet Mutryn, halfback Chick Maggioli and end Bob Oristaglio all played for the Bills and made their way to the Colts in 1950. Clem Crowe, who took over for fired Bills head coach Red Dawson, was the coach of the 1950 Colts. Baltimore went 1-11-0 that year and sold their player contracts to the NFL and folded. A few years later, a new Baltimore Colts franchise was formed, which became the Indianapolis Colts in 1984.
The Bisons finished the season 3-10-1, only slightly better than the Seahawks. Buffalo played all four years in the AAFC, but were not admitted into the NFL in 1950. The city fought for a franchise, but the NFL did not want to expand beyond thirteen teams. Buffalo would have to wait until 1959 before major-league professional football returned.

Actor Warren Stevens Dies at 92
Stage and screen actor Warren Stevens has passed away, according to published reports.
Born in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, Stevens began his acting career after serving in the U.S. Army Air Force as a pilot during World War II. He trained at The Actor's Studio in New York and made his Broadway debut in 1947's THE LIFE OF GALILEO followed by Six O'Clock Theatre, SUNDOWN BEACH, THE SMILE OF THE WORLD and DETECTIVE STORY, all between 1948 and 1950.
He then transitioned to movies, from Phone Call from a Stranger (1952), Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellie (1952), and Gorilla at Large (1954) to the film for which he is perhaps best known, Forbidden Planet (1956). He also had a supporting role in The Barefoot Contessa (1954) with Humphrey Bogart.
Stevens also worked steadily in television, appearing in Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Hawaiian Eye, Bonanza and many more.
The New York Times reports that Stevens is survived by his wife of 43 years, Barbara Fletcher, and their two sons, Adam and Mathew; and a son, Laurence, from a previous marriage to Susan Huntington.

JUDY WOODRUFF: Now, one of the world's most popular websites is shut down by the U.S. government in the battle over online piracy.
Margaret Warner has the story.
MARGARET WARNER: It's one of the largest criminal copyright cases ever brought. The target is a website based in Hong Kong that's been used to share large files, including movies, videos, television shows, e-books, games, and music.
It's called Megaupload, and the heavily visited site is said to have 150 million registered users and 50 million visits a day. Now it stands charged with storing and distributing pirated material, and thus robbing copyright holders of more than $500,000.
Yesterday, the Justice Department shut it down and released indictments against seven executives. Four were arrested at the New Zealand mansion of its founder, who goes by the name Kim Dotcom.
Within hours, the hacker collective called Anonymous retaliated, shutting down the websites of the Justice Department and major media groups, including Universal Music and the Motion Picture Association of America. The government's crackdown came one day after this week's online protests against anti-piracy bills in Congress.
For more on all of this, we turn to Cecilia Kang, who's covering it for The Washington Post.
And, Cecilia, welcome back to the program.
It sounds as if this website had just everything you can imagine in print, video or audio. How did it actually function for its users?
CECILIA KANG, The Washington Post: It did have all of those bits of content.
The way that it functions is that users go to the website, and they can upload content. It could be anything from their family videos or music that they have on these files, or, in the case of this FBI criminal indictment, copyrighted material that was uploaded illegally.
And what they do is, you upload all of those files onto the site, and from that site, other users can access those files. And they get — that's how you distribute the content.
MARGARET WARNER: So, are you saying that when the pirated material gets there — or copyrighted material, I should say, it's not by the legitimate copyright holders; it's already been essentially stolen or pirated even before it's uploaded?
CECILIA KANG: That's what the FBI criminal indictment alleges, is that much of the website's material was illegally there. It was copyrighted material that wasn't given permission to be there by the copyright holders.
And beyond that, the FBI's saying that there was a big conspiracy actually for the website operators to get as much illegal content on the website as possible.
MARGARET WARNER: Now, what's the company's defense here? I know you have spoken to at least one of the lawyers for this company.
CECILIA KANG: I have.
I spoke to the outside litigator for this case. And Ira Rothkin, the counsel for Megaupload, said that, number one, there wasn't due process. He said that they were not informed that there was going to be any sort of a criminal case brought against them, and they didn't have a chance to defend themselves.
But they point to actually some historical court cases that show that perhaps Megaupload has a defense, in that they weren't contacted properly by copyright holders that they should take down content, and, if they were, they would have. And they also said that they may be protected by other cases, such as the case of YouTube, where — and in Sony's case, where they defended themselves against Betamax that if other uses that are legitimate for the website are being done, then actually the website shouldn't be liable when there is illegal activity as well.
MARGARET WARNER: Now, tell us who this company is. I noticed from the — at least from the Justice Department indictment, not one of the people arrested was even an American.
CECILIA KANG: It's a really interesting company.
It's a very opaque company, in that it's very difficult to see exactly how it runs. It's not like there's an org chart on the website, in the way that a company — a Fortune 500 company would have.
It's an international company based in Hong Kong. And many of its executives are dispersed around the world. As you mentioned, four of the people who were indicted and arrested are based in New Zealand, for example.
It has a figurehead as a chief executive, not officially the chief executive according to the company's attorney. But his name is Beatz. And he's actually a pretty big figure in the hip-hop world, the R&B world, married to Alicia Keys.
MARGARET WARNER: Yes. And we should point out that he was not actually arrested or indicted.
CECILIA KANG: That's right. That's right.
MARGARET WARNER: Explain why some prominent celebrities have actually endorsed this company and have done promotional videos.
CECILIA KANG: It's an interesting twist in this.
Megaupload has had a lot of criticism fired at it by record labels for a while. Universal Music actually has been very critical of the site for the very reasons the FBI brought this criminal indictment against them, saying that there's a lot of illegal copy on the website.
And so what Megaupload did is, it got a lot of people, some pretty big names, big celebrities to create a music video. And that music video included Kanye West, Will.i.am, a member of the Black Eyed Peas, and other members, like Jamie Smith, to — other celebrities — to endorse the website really in a Webcasted video, saying that Megaupload is a great product essentially and come use it.
MARGARET WARNER: What do you make of the timing, that this comes the very same week that you have had this huge debate, controversy about the anti-piracy legislation in Congress, you have this online protest by Wikipedia and others?
CECILIA KANG: It's been a very high-volume, very highly emotional debate right now on piracy and the Internet in Washington.
And the timing is pretty interesting. And there's a lot of people who are bringing up questions as to why the Justice Department, if they were investigating this for more than a couple years, it appears, why are they bringing out their indictment right now, especially when it looks like two bills were really under siege by the Internet community?
So there's a lot of — there's a lot of suspicion around the timing of this. But these are two — one should keep in mind that these are two discreet issues. There's the federal indictment of a criminal case, and then there are the two bills right now that are being proposed on the Hill that I should say actually have been on hold, today were put on hold because of all the controversy around them.
But, if anything, it just makes the debate much more at the front and center in Washington. And it makes — it's brought on — it's made the debate less about what's in the Beltway, and it's brought in the whole Internet community, people who — anybody who uses the Internet, people who run websites, the music community, Hollywood. It's become a much bigger debate.
MARGARET WARNER: Well, Cecilia Kang of The Washington Post, thank you so much.
CECILIA KANG: Thank you, Margaret.

The sight of their mis-matched crimson red induces vomit, and hearing them bleat and squawk about this rivalry makes me want to beat my head against a wall.
Over the years I have been able to categorize Utah fans into four distinct groups. Let me know if you've had experience with any of these guys:
Lives in: Downtown Salt Lake City
Defining Characteristic: Being the first to comment on BYU-related articles online
Favorite phrase: "F*** you BYU!"
Works: in your sales department
Key physical attribute: Whispy Goatee
Lives in: Their mom's basement
Defining Characteristic: Bitterness for not being accepted into BYU
Favorite phrase: "F*** you BYU!"
Works: at The Pie... or Borders
Key physical attribute: Long, dirty hair
Lives in: West Valley City
Defining Characteristic: Shamelessness
Favorite Phrase: "I'm so drunk! Here, hold my hair..."
"Works": at the Welfare office
Key physical attribute: Interesting head gear made from cases of beer
Lives in: Draper, Sandy, Bountiful, and there are probably a few in your ward
Defining Characteristic: Always popping up on the Sunday after BYU loses to Utah
Favorite Phrase: "Sorry about those guys... not all Ute fans are like that"
Works: For a BYU fan, most likely
Key physical attribute: They look just like us... beware.
Now I understand that each of the four categories has sub-categories and subtle nuances, but I'm pretty sure I got it mostly right. What are your thoughts? Which ones did I miss?
(Cue the Anti-BYU Ute comments...)

Cloudboss Pro Review: Live Software Demo
VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: Cloudboss Pro Review
Welcome to Cloudboss Pro and in this video we are going to walk through all of the various functions and features inside Cloudboss so that you get a good, solid understanding of exactly how this software platform works and how to best use it for managing your SEO or PBN type (seo infographic) hosting.
But before we jump into all of the different pages and features inside Cloudboss which we are looking at on the screen now, it`s important that we have a good kind of philosophical understanding of what`s going on and what makes Cloudboss Pro different when it comes to SEO hosting.
Typically when we think of the old fashioned, old school way of doing SEO hosting what we would do firstly is find an SEO hosting company like this one here: seohosting.com or this one seohosting.co.uk.
They all kind of work in a very, very similar way that unfortunately isn`t safe in my experience for hosting your valuable PBN domains, your SEO sites.
Typically we then create an account or accounts at these types of hosting companies, we install our websites one-by-one on this particular SEO hosting platform or they could be more than one and then we hope that Google doesn't infiltrate that hosting company and deindex huge numbers of the sites on those IP addresses when they go in there and infiltrate and see exactly what sites are there.
It's very, very easy to do.
And because our precious PBN type domains or sites are now hosted on IPs with lots of other SEO guys there is a very high deindexing risk from Google infiltrators and Google routinely takes down Private Blog Networks or Public Blog Networks.
Plus, SEO hosting is a part of that and also gets targeted pretty often and when you are on that same IP address as other SEO guys it's extremely for Google just to sign up to that service, see what the IPs are, do a reverse IP lookup and basically just start deindexing anything that looks like an SEO site on that IP address.
However, with Cloudboss Pro the hosting of your SEO sites is handled in a very different way and in fact there are a few different ways which I will be going through in this video.
So if Google joins up Cloudboss tomorrow and they are obviously pretending to be a normal subscriber in Cloudboss but when they go and check those IPs they will probably fins that they are the only sites on there and therefore they can`t see what other Cloudboss users are doing on Openshift because the IPs are only theirs.
One good way to think of it with your Cloudboss Pro monthly subscription is that that does include hosting for up to 50 sits which is quite a lot but the only drawback as I said is the lack of data center variation and it`s nice to have some geo variation but we will come to that with some other options in a moment.
The best way that you can use Cloudboss after you have created your account is to create an Amazon AWS account and then through the tools inside Cloudboss as you will see you can host up to 50 HTML sites on one Amazon AWS account, S3 account more than EC2 which is also an option inside Cloudboss because S3 is extremely cheap and you can probably host these 50 sites for under $5 per month on S3 in 9 different locations around the world.
Now if you are addicted to WordPress which you shouldn`t be if you are building PBN type sites it`s really good to have variation and we do a lot with HTML sites here.
We do have a WordPress to HTML site converter inside Cloudboss as you will see shortly.
That way you can setup a WordPress site as you would like it with links and whatever content you would like there and then convert it to an HTML site and upload it to an Amazon S3 bucket for extremely cheap hosting.
It could be 10 to 15 cents a month if you are not getting much traffic to that site and obviously from there you can use your sites.
Now each Amazon AWS account comes with 100 bucket limit in S3 but we need those 50 extra buckets to divert or redirect the www or non www version of your domain for your PBN sites.
So even though theoretically you can have 100 buckets with an Amazon S3 account very cheap storage at Amazon.
You can only host up to 50 HTML sites there because we need those other 50 buckets to do the redirect. And we help with all that through the automation options inside Cloudboss.
The next option that you have with Cloudboss and this is much less cost effective. The previous two options were a lot cheaper and certainly free in the case of Openshift accounts.
So assuming you have your Cloudboss account you can then go and create other Cloud service accounts with these different services on your screen now including Linode, or Joyent, or Microsoft Azure.
They are very a lot in price but we do cover that information inside Cloudboss and each of those individual accounts means that you are not sharing those resources with other SEOs.
Their IP variation is huge and therefore the IPs that you own and we are yet to see IPs get shared with any other SEOs by a coincidence.
The IPs that you own mean that you are extremely unlikely to get a Google infiltrator going in there deindexing your sites.
Now of course the IPs are not the only way that Google can identify and deindex PBN type sites but it is a huge one.
It is one of the main methods for Google to go after big blog networks and SEO hosting type companies.
So once you have created your own account not shared with any other SEO on this other cloud services.
You then integrate it into Cloudboss and I will show you the page where you can do that shortly and then you can setup your sites and start using them.
And among all of the options below currently the cheapest is DigitalOcean at $5 per month per VPS and one way of thinking about Cloudboss even though it does a lot of different things very well is that it`s kind of a VPS creator and manager across all of these different platforms as well.
So if you are looking for IP diversity and geo diversity you are going to be spending about $5 a month minimum per VPS which is a little bit pricy and why you should also be looking at Amazon S3 as an option and also taking advantage of the 50 site OpenShift offer as well.
When you first go into Cloudboss Pro by default you will be taken to this Live Sites page and this is where you can see a bunch of information about the sites that have been successfully installed by Cloudboss on cloud hosting.
If we look closely at the various widgets and tables here typically you will see information icons that explain exactly what each table does and just ignore the not indexed count here because these are all test domains where we were testing IP variation on Amazon recently.
But you can see we have help videos there are little 'I' information icons.
You also have Live Chat down on the bottom right hand corner and on Live Sites here we have got a whole bunch of information about each of the sites that Cloudboss has successfully installed.
Now a quick caveat here, a quick warning is that even if Cloudboss has successfully installed the site like this one here – cloudboss-test-10.xyz – it doesn't mean that it`s live on the web until the name servers have been changed at your domain registrar and we cover how to do that inside Cloudboss of course.
But this is basically where you can see all of the different sites that you have installed on each of the different platforms and you can monitor the health of those particular sites.
On the left navigation menu here if we click on the dropdown arrow for Live Sites we can go directly just to one particular platform, so if we are only using one we can just go directly there.
And it`s also good to know here a couple of things in Cloudboss that all of these menu items here are drag and droppable so it could be that you work in a particular way and you like to see the menu items re-arranged in a way that suits how you work and you can do that by dragging and dropping those menu items.
In the same way where we have multiple table areas inside Cloudboss you can actually drag and drop and resize each of these just as you would like to work so there is a lot of flexibility in the interface, we are always looking to add more and interested in adding more features and functions but when you begin using Cloudboss you can customize it to suit the way that you would like to work.
Now the next page we will have a look at here is Help Videos and these are the various help videos describing different functions and processes that you may will need in using Cloudboss but of course if you get stuck, please contact us through Live Chat or support(at)cloudboss.pro and we will help you very quickly.
Next up we have this Bulk Deployment page and this is where we can add multiple sites at once and we could install hundreds if we wanted to.
We have all the options here to do that and the way to use this page is well covered in the Help Videos area but basically you can install lots of different sites in different data centers on each of the platforms with different content management systems or HTML, we have got WordPress, Joomla, Drupal all those options there and that works very, very quickly.
However, it's important to note that here we are creating multiple VPSs so if you see it taking a little bit longer there is a lot being done such as mail service being setup for each of those sites but you have a lot of flexibility here to bulk install sites on different platforms at the same time.
Earlier in the video I spoke about S3 hosting – this is the cheapest hosting you can find probably and we have got a couple of links here.
We have got the Explained page where I go into all of the details about how to use Amazon S3 – the good points about it, the bad points about it, what to keep in mind and how to change your name servers at your domain registrar so that your S3 hosted sites will work normally.
Now you probably saw on this S3 Hosting dropdown this WP-HTML link here and that`s a convertor that can take any WordPress site converted to HTML once you have got your links in place and then upload it, we ca see here on the right in this Action column, upload it to an S3 bucket which should have already been created.
Obviously you cannot upload to a bucket if it doesn't exist yet, if you haven`t yet installed that site with Cloudboss but once you do that you can convert and upload here very quickly.
Then we have the Add New Site/VPS function here and you can see the various options that we have here including Mictosoft Azure, IMB Soflayer, Vultr, Joyent, Digital Ocean etc. and this is really for creating single sites, installing singe sites or VPSs through Cloudboss rather than bulk deployment.
It could well be that you only want to install one site so this is the place to do it, but if you want to do a whole batch obviously we will need to go back to that Bulk deployment page there.
Next up we have Domain Tools such as advice on how to take care of Nameserver Changes, Indexing Checks – you can control the frequency with which Cloudboss will check that your PBN type sites are indexed and you can also go and check Who Is to make sure that you or your team have not accidentally created an email tying together a bunch of domains and that is one way that Google can identify and deindex SEO sites as well.
Then we have got the Remove Sites page and that's pretty self-explanatory.
You can just select sites you would like removed, come along and check those and then just choose the Delete option here over on the right drop down menu here.
That's pretty straightforward.
Next up we have the Site Migrations page and this is an explanation of what you need to do in order to migrate sites over to Cloudboss.
Unfortunately we can't offer that service at the moment because it is quite labor intensive to do on any sort of scale but it's a pretty straight forward process and if you follow the steps here or contact us if you get stuck the migration should be pretty straight forward.
In our experience in most cases, Cloudboss users are setting up expired domains from scratch and not actually migrating them, but there could be situations where you do want to migrate an existing PBN site over for example to Amazon S3 and one of the reasons by the way that you wouldn't directly do this with any of these big Cloud companies like Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure, or IBM SoftLayer is that there interfaces are incredibly complex and difficult to use (read about pbn hosting here).
They were never setup for hosting, let alone SEO hosting, and trying to get things working there for what we need is a really difficult and frustrating process to use.
The whole philosophy behind Cloudboss when I built it was to automate and simplify even though it might look a little bit complicated but with hosting we do need some technical details covered but the goal here with Cloudboss is to make working with those big cloud platforms like Amazon and IBM and even Open Shift a lot easier and a lot simpler through automation and software tools to make it all work a lot better for what we need rather than their more general cloud purposes that they were originally built for.
Next up on the Integrations page you can see here that this is where we add our details from our Amazon account, or OpenShift, or Joyent, or any of these in order for Cloudboss can work successfully with those through their API.
Next up we have Cloud Charges here and this covers the cost of the various Cloud platforms and remember that the best way to get the most out of Cloudboss in terms of value for money is to: a) use our 50 site free OpenShift offer and also b) is to use that Amazon S2 hosting which is extremely cheap.
You will be very hard pressed to find anything cheaper around when you are talking about something like 10 -15 cents per month per site for websites that have very little or no traffic, they really only exist for SEO purposes.
We also have an FTP Tool and File Manager inside Cloudboss which we can use for ordinary FTP as you can see here on the right, or we have a specializes FTP tool just for Amazon S3 because that has particular demands to it that don`t work with our conventional file manager or FTP client there.
Inside Cloudboss we also have 301 Manager which can handle different kinds of htaccess driven 301s and you can see the guide there for exactly how to use the 301 Manager and an htaccess redirect in my experience is about the best you can get for SEO impact particularly if you get your expired domain re-indexed first before you do the 301 redirect.
Moving on, inside Cloudboss we also have Virtualmin which is a very powerful VPS management tool for email and DNS zone management and hosting admin. Very, very powerful it`s a little bit more for advanced users but the option is there if you want to go in and deal with different extra functions for your SEO type sites.
Next up we have a free tool in here called KaywordTool.io Pro and this is a paid API account for us and basically this tool just comes along and scrapes the Google suggest, Google instant result, same for YouTube, Bing and the App Store to give you additional keyword ideas.
So for instance if we type in 'diet' assuming we are in the weight loss niche and we click on Search, we can see that we have a whole bunch of additional information like CPC, Search Volume and we get some other keywords suggestions here such as 'diet plans' and 'dietary supplements', 'diet pills' and on and on there are a lot that are in there as well – 'diet water', 'diet doctor', 'diet recipes' and so on.
It's just going to help you with keyword research. It's not directly related to what Cloudboss Pro does but we have it in our other software tools and I thought it would be nice to have it here as well.
Another option for getting more out of your SEO hosting is to use CloudFlare IPs and in fact we also offer 20 free CloudFlare IPs that we can setup for you with your Cloudboss Pro subscription and this page here just walks through the actual process of what is needed in order to use CloudFlare IPs as well if you want to go down at that part.
So you don`t have to but it`s just part of the flexibility in options that are built into Cloudboss for you to consider using.
Below that you can see a page that talks about whether or not you need Spyder Spanker and in fact there is a better way around it using an htaccess edit where you won't need a Spyder Spanker WordPress plugin across all of your WordPress PBN sites which could will be an obvious footprint.
And the better way to do it is through an htaccess edit especially for using HTML where you don`t have that WordPress plugin option.
Next up we have a FAQ page which just talks through the process of how Cloudboss Pro works if you feel you need that it that could be worth visiting.
Then we also have the various options for getting in touch with us for support along with information about our private Facebook group where you need to apply and then we just go ahead and approve and enable your access to it.
It's important to note though that if your Cloudboss user name that you have registered with is completely different to your Facebook name we won`t automatically grant access and in fact we won`t grant access unless we receive an email just explaining that your name in Facebook is different than your Cloudboss user name. And you can just send that through to support(at)cloudboss.pro and we can then enable your private Facebook Cloudboss group access.
Just rounding out the menu bar here you can see we have a page where we invite you to submit new feature requests for Cloudboss that we will definitely consider and we are always open to hearing more feedback and looking to develop and evolve the platform. And if you are interested in promoting Cloudboss as an affiliate which is a 50% recurring commission affiliate program so it's very good one, you can see all of the relevant information on that affiliate program page.
And just to round out these couple of pages here, we have information about Bluechip Backlinks which is another software platform and kind of the sister software to Cloudboss for actually finding great expired domains that you can buy for just the cost of registration.
So it's not like paying huge money on a domain auction or anything like that.
And also if you have got a very valuable money site and it`s on WordPress though doesn't need to be necessarily there is also information about my WordPress hosting company as well which is all SSD and extremely fast loading there and 24/7 support as well on that hosting service – search engine optimization .
So just to round up this introductory video just remember that most or all of the pages have information areas or videos, they have those little 'i' information icons or picture guides that will help you with specific functions to get the most out of Cloudboss pro and if you get stuck please don't get frustrated, please just reach out to our support desk or live chat, or email support(at)cloudbosspro.pro and we will get back to you – it's probably something that we have already seen and that we can resolve pretty quickly in most cases – Cloudboss pro review.
So once again welcome to Cloudboss pro and I really hope that you find it as useful as we do for managing a large portfolio of PBN or SEO type sites.

Reliever Evan Meek today was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis to replace Juan Cruz, who's on the DL with shoulder inflammation. Cruz has an opponents' batting average of .287 and has allowed nearly half (17 of 37) of the first batters he's faced to reach base. Cruz said his shoulder has been cranky since around the third week of June.
Meek went 3-2 with one save and a 2.27 ERA in 27 outings with Indy. "It feels great to be here and to be part of it again," Meek said. "It's good to be healthy again. I feel like I'm back to where I was in 2010." Manager Clint Hurdle said Meek doesn't have a specific role in the pen, other than to to help get the ball to Jason Grilli in the eighth and Joel Hanrahan in the ninth. Hudle also indicated Meek could make some two-inning outings.
»»» The Pirates are 8-2 in sellouts at PNC Park this season. Tonight will be sellout No. 11, six shy of last yea's total.
»»» Baseball Prospectus analyst Kevin Goldstein is just as puzzled as we are about why OF Starling Marte is still an Indy Indian. Thursday, Go;ldstein wrote "one has to wonder if one of the reasons the Pirateas have kept him at Triple-A is to keep him putting up numbers, as opposed to risking having his aggressive approach exposed by big league pitching." Goldstein surmised Marte has more value as a prospect to the other 29 clubs because "as a centerfielder, Marte is a star … in a corner outfield spot, Marte might look more like Juan Encarnacion. Position is everything, and Marte just doesn't have an ideal fit" with the Pirates.
Game 93: Marlins @ Pirates, 7:05 p.m. ET
Marlins (44-49): 1. Jose Reyes ss, 2. Emilio Bonifacio cf, 3. Carlos Lee 1b, 4. Logan Morrison lf, 5. Justin Ruggiano rf, 6. Greg Dobbs 3b, 7. Omar Infante 2b, 8. John Buck c, 9. Carlos Zambrano rhp (5-7, 4.22)
Pirates (52-40): 1. Alex Presley lf, 2. Neil Walker 2b, 3. Andrew McCutchen cf, 4. Garrett Jones rf, 5. Casey McGehee 1b, 6. Pedro Alvarez 3b, 7. Rod Barajas c, 8. Clint Barmes ss, 9. A.J. Burnett rhp (10-3, 3.78)

Austin Mahone Kicks It With His Famous Buddies – Picture Perfect
We were looking at Austin Mahone's Instagram page and thought to ourselves, "Does a day go by in his life where he isn't rubbing elbows with a famous person?"
Mahone, who turns 17 today (April 4), is totally living the dream posing with the likes of Lil Wayne, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carrie Underwood and Serena Williams! Most guys his age are just working up the courage to ask a girl to prom, so we have to applaud the 'Heart In My Hand' singer for being such a mover and a shaker.
Austin Mahone may be a fresh face in the pop music scene, but we have a feeling he is here to stay with friends like these! Check out these awesome snaps of Austin hanging with a who's who of Hollywood and beyond.

Final Fantasy VII
Review by PlasmawarriorX
"Like my Zelda Review: Good, but not the best game of all time."
In 1997, the relationship with Squaresoft and Nintendo finally for the most part came to an end; it would take 7 years before the two got back together once more. While Square would make a ton of great games, there's been little debate of what people say is their masterpiece: Final Fantasy VII. At the time parsed as one of the best games ever. To be honest people are throwing that around a lot, but it's up to the game itself to warrant rather it's the best ever. Well, is it?
Pretty much put up a team of heroes to smash though the enemies of whatever it is. It's typical RPG style so there's nothing fancy here. However this was also Square's move to make a 3-D world and game to match. I'll talk about that more in graphics, but at least their hearts are in the right place on this one. 9/10
The first and most notable problem with this game that it's an RPG. Why is that such a bad thing? Well it comes down to what kind of RPG system used. This game focuses on 'Matera' to mostly do things. Issue is that this is supposed to make you stronger in some areas and weaker in others. Those areas are typically all about magical ability, which downplays many physical fighters a tad. Another issue is that pretty much everyone has physical attacks as special moves. Save for one character, everyone relies a lot on brute force for the most part. A downer since it had a smart idea. To make matters worse, there's no expansion on any one character that makes it worth going though sidequests. Other than a few weapons (which you don't need to beat the game) and 'Limit Breaks' you really don't have to worry too much about not leveling a certain person. It's not because it's an RPG that matters, it's that the experience is dumbed down a great deal. Gameplay makes up the game for the most part, and this one failed. 1/10
Move, menu, conform, cancel. That's really the only ones you need to know. And for the most part this game actually sticks to that idea of RPGs. Sure there's some here and there mini-game controls but it's rather straight forward and that's what RPGs need to be. Even with doing special moves I don't normally want to worry about more than 2 buttons in a turn-based RPG. Later Final Fantasies would end up forgetting this simple rule (i.e. Final Fantasy VIII) but thankfully this one didn't. 10/10
Here's where the 'best game ever' is for sure wrong: These graphics, even when in combat, even for PS1 standards, SUCK! Out of combat we get a bunch of block-styled characters that aren't full body. Even the N64's block style had a lot of full features. With that being said there are some very good backgrounds, and the areas are totally different from place to place. The glow effects of light are stellar and they bring up the score pretty good. But with the short comings it's tough for me to really enjoy the backgrounds. 3/10
This is where Final Fantasy begins to be epic. The opening sequence has one of the most pleasant tracks ever, and from there it has music for just about every mood. I loved pretty much every piece of music in this game. The sound effects aren't the greatest, but at least they tried to put out great sound effects. Cutting things up and shooting stuff are pretty decent. But for the most part there are no special sound effects. But the music is so epic I don't think the boring sounds will hinder you that much. 8/10
For the most part the story is easy to follow but there's two major points I would like to make known. At first the party is a group of people who are attacking a greedy group of office suits who pretty much rule the world by doing some basic terrorism to slow their progress (which I don't condor in any one way shape or form). After that, the villain ends up going up against pretty much everyone and everything. There are a lot of good bits that end up happening and it's a lot to put out here, but to say that the base story is very strong is an understatement. Here are the problems: One is that Cloud, our hero of the story, doesn't really care about how the world ends up, saying so himself many times, and being even more blunt at the end of disc two, where he pretty much says that he's only there to settle the score with Sephiroth, the main villain. That makes this hero more of a rouge, and not really that likeable. The second problem is for some stupid reason, no one takes the 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' approach to ANYTHING ON ANY SIDE! You think 'end of the world' would bring two sides together to combat it, but it doesn't. In fact, even once the two sides have to face the same issue with a side character but won't work together at all. Really guys, if it were one person trying to destroy the world, wouldn't you expect to at least gather resources to fight it? Sorry, but this just sounds stupid to me. But the basic story at least is worth it. 6/10
Basically there really isn't any. The game is painfully straight-forward to level and like I said the RPG system is not that good. To me this game seems more casual for RPGers which not only makes it more balanced, but also a bit too easy. You could sleep walk through a lot of the bosses when you get to a certain level, so that alone bothers me. Yes it's casual but too casual when you get to the final area. No pressure, no rush, no fear, no toughness. 3/10
Replay Value:
Not as high as one would think. Yes you can miss a few items here and there and be a compleationist if you want, but you really don't need any of these things to beat the game. If you did then yes the Replay Value would go down a tad more. That's the good news. The bad news is that's also to say getting them doesn't help you as much as it would. Sure I'd love Knights of the Round but that's just not important compared to smashing your enemy in half with Omnislash or something like that. Though it's good to go though a few times, there's little reason to do it over and over sadly. Though you can experiment and see what you like best, this also helps you in the long run. So have at it for a few goes. 7/10
Fun Factor:
I will say this game is a blast to play. There's just the right blend of comedy and time wasting to keep you going. The Gold Saucer is a pretty good time waster, but of course I tend to use a cheat during Chocobo Racing so that's also one of those things that you can add or subtract (though Chocobo Racing is pretty boring to me anyway). Sadly for most the mini-games do end outside of G.S. and it really hurts that after a while the games there aren't really that great ether. Though for the while that you get to take some breaks, they're enjoyable. But the game all-around is nice, so you don't need them anyway. 10/10
I LOVED the game when it came out, and I still do to some degree. But the fandom has become so diluted it's not funny. So many people these days are gaming n00bs who typically remember Cloud and Tifa from ether Avnet Children (which is a pretty good movie btw) or Kingdom Hearts. I'm very disappointed that many new comers to anime and gaming fandoms alike haven't played this game and don't seem to know much about it. Why? My guess is that SquareEnix isn't trying to put this game out again. I'm not sure why because everyone has been screaming for them to do so for the longest time. I'm just shocked. Would it kill them to put it on PSN or something? Why universe? Why? 3/10
Over-all rating:
I'm so much down on this game I admit, but really it's not as great as it was built to be or even present to be. As you can tell by the rankings of this review, when it's good, it's really good, when it's bad, it's really bad. And that's my problem. As much as I like it and really enjoyed a lot of it, I can't make this best game ever' worthy even for 1997, let alone 2011. Still IF you can find it, get it. It's rare and expensive so good luck, but if you can't don't worry yourself over it too much. After all you can likely find Final Fantasies 8-13 pretty often these days.
I know I'm going to get grilled for being low on it, but 68 out of 100.
Reviewer's Rating: 3.5 - Good

There are only two posts on Michael Andrade's blog on the social-media site Tumblr. But those two say it all.
The first one was written last October. When the 22-year-old accounting student at York University turned on his computer at home in Brampton, Ont. (northwest of Toronto), all other options had failed him.
"Considering what I am asking for, and where I am posting this," he wrote, "I do realize this may be a long shot, but I must try everything I can."
At the top of the lengthy post was a grainy photograph of his mother holding him on her lap when he was just a little boy.
"That woman in the picture above has loved me like no other mother can. She's the strongest, most unselfish person I know, and has made so many sacrifices so that her four children can live a great, great life. I just can't begin to describe what she has done for her family, and she will never take any credit or reward for it. This is why I am resorting to every possible way I can, including Tumblr, to get my message across."
Ten years ago, Lucia (Lucy) Andrade, who is now 61, was diagnosed with primary biliary cirrhosis, a rare, incurable liver disease that predominantly affects women over 40. Doctors told her it probably could be controlled with drugs, and initially it was. But a little more than two years ago, her condition took a turn for the worse. Without a transplant within two years, doctors said, she would probably die.
"Somehow, I had hope," she says.
She was put on an organ-donor waiting list. The hospital gave her a beeper that she kept by her side 24 hours a day for six months. If a deceased donor was found, the beeper would alert Lucy, who would then have to race to the operating room.
In the meantime, relatives were tested to see if they could be living donors. Most were not a match for Ms. Andrade's rare blood type, O negative. One cousin was told his liver was too small. But Lucy's only daughter, Lisa, did share her blood type. A week after her wedding last August, Lisa underwent several days of tests. Finally, though, the 34-year-old schoolteacher was told she could not donate because her liver-enzyme levels were too high. "It was the most horrible day of my life," she says.
No relative or friend proved to be a suitable match. The beeper remained silent. Weeks dragged on, and Lucy's condition grew visibly worse. Her two years were almost up. "I was just skin and bones," she says.
Michael, the youngest of her four children, decided they needed to cast a wider net. "I knew I had to put people in my situation, in our situation, and explain what my mom was going through – what she meant to the family, what she needed."
His first move was to write a post on Facebook. But he needed something everyone could see. He had never heard of Tumblr until he had taken an online-marketing course the year before, which discussed how effectively the site could spread messages and ideas as they were "reblogged" from one of its 54 million users' pages to another and another. So he created a page called liverdonor4mom.
Under the headline "Please help us find a liver donor," he described the symptoms and pain she was enduring: "Just now as I'm [posting]this she was mumbling to herself, 'Why me? Why me? I've never been a bad person.' It's so heartbreaking to hear your mom say that."
Lucy Andrade, a bookkeeper by profession, had always put family first, Michael says. When her husband Terencio's half-brother had moved to Canada with his wife and six children, the Andrades had taken them in to their house for six months, never complaining about having so many people under one roof built for a family of four.
Michael still remembers his mother driving him to every baseball game and tournament he played in from 1996 through to 2009. "It didn't matter what she had planned," he says, "she was always at my games, cheering me on."
In the Tumblr post, he also laid out what the testing process would require, and asked readers to share the post with others, in the hope of finding a suitable match in the Toronto area.
"I'm just really worried, and I don't want to lose my mother, especially without me trying everything I can do to save her. She's done so much for me, the least I can do is spread the word and try to find a donor for her," he wrote.
Hundreds of readers spread the word, reblogging it on their own sites and posting it across social-networking platforms. Blue Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia posted about the Andrades' situation on Twitter. Canadian singer Lights posted it on her own Tumblr site. The more people who saw the story, the greater the chances Michael could save his mother.Report Typo/Error

Late last year I highlighted what I believed to be the 5 best features in Vista that often don't get any recognition. Among those features I talked about the file previews in the new Windows Explorer, which can be opened by going to Organize -> Layout -> Preview Pane. This gives you the opportunity to view the content of the file without needing to open an additional application. It's quite clever actually.
The only problem that I've found with it is that you'll often need to have a third-party application installed to get previews for certain types of files. For example, you won't be able to preview PDF's without a program such as Adobe Reader installed. And no Microsoft Office will mean that you can't preview your Office documents. It would have been much better if more preview handlers were included out-of-the-box, but maybe we can makeup for Vista's shortcomings.
The How-To Geek scrounged up a free program that will ease some of the burden, but only after he walks through the daunting steps to configure the preview handler manually. The free app is called PreviewConfig (no install needed), and it can be used to associate some additional file extensions as plain-text or media. There are quite a few areas where this would be beneficial, such as a CSS (cascading style sheet) file which is really just a text file with a special extension. With PreviewConfig you could associate that with being plain-text so that a preview will be available. Similarly you can find media extensions that do not have a preview available, but they have to be playable in Windows Media Player.

EVERETT, Wash. -- Former Saint Mary's outfielder Brenden Kalfus is the latest Gael to earn recognition for his work between the white lines, as the Temecula, Calif. native has been selected to participate in next week's Northwest League All-Star Game.
Entering play Monday, Kalfus owned a .278 batting average as a member of the Vancouver Canadians. He also has four doubles, six steals and 13 runs driven in for the Toronto Blue Jays Single-A affiliate. He is one of eight Vancouver players to make the North Division team.
That Kalfus has continued to hit as a professional is no surprise. He ended his Saint Mary's career with a gaudy .381 batting average, winning the West Coast Conference batting title. During his senior season he also compiled a 36-game hitting streak, the longest such streak in NCAA Division I baseball in 2013.
The 2013 Northwest League All-Star Game will be held on August 6 in Everett, Wash. The Everett Aquasox will host the event, which will include an All-Star Fan Fest and Home Run Derby in addition to the game.

Omaha (Dec. 10)
Prof. Enrice Glicenstein, noted Jewish sculptor, has been commissioned to make the bust of the late Harry Lapidus, prominent civic, communal and philanthropic leader of Omaha.
The bust when finished will be placed in the Jewish Community Center as a permanent memorial to the memory of the departed leader, and is commissioned by the Jewish organizations of Omaha.
The Community Center was chosen as the permanent site for the bust because Harry Lapidus was one of the founders of the center and was its first president, serving as head of the institution for three years.
In addition to the bust, the establishment of a Community Trust Fund and Yahrzeit services will be Omaha Jewry's tribute to his memory.

Two years of leadership and 25 years of service came to an end in minutes Friday with the changing of garrison command at Fort Gordon.
In a carefully choreographed ceremony under the rising sun, Col. Glenn Kennedy II said farewell to his subordinates and his career in the Army. With a formal but quick exchange of the Army post's colors, Col. Robert Barker took his place as garrison commander.
In his remarks on taking command, Barker said Kennedy and his wife, Angela, have made a lasting impression on the post since 2009.
"Your legacy will always be a part of Fort Gordon," Barker said.
Kennedy said afterward that he views his retirement as an opportunity to serve the community after 25 years serving the nation. His wife and three children see the change as a break from the demanding schedule of a career officer.
"I'm very pleased that he handed over the BlackBerry," Angela Kennedy said, jokingly. "That was the real change in command."
Fort Gordon saw several major changes under Kennedy's leadership. In the past two years, $40 million has been invested in upgrading barracks and $1.6 million in revamping the range and other training areas.
Kennedy lavished praise on all the garrison staffers for their efforts in making that possible during his closing speech. He invited the staffers to join him on the field during the change-of-command ceremony as a sign of solidarity.
Kennedy, an Evans High School graduate, said his family's wish is to stay in the Augusta area. He didn't disclose any specific plans but he said he is certain of one thing.
"I've had 25 good years," he said, "and the next 25 will be just as good, if not better."

Being True Friends with Your Ego
By Sheila on Aug 4, 2011 in Art of Life Purpose, Energy Clearing
Have you ever seen someone walking an untrained dog and asked yourself, "Who's walking who, the master or the dog?" It doesn't look like a good time for either, as they both tug and struggle to be the one in control.
(Keep reading below the image)
In the case of your Higher Self and your ego, who is taking the lead with running your life?
It is interesting to observe how dogs interact with their masters and other dogs. A dog's behavior is not that different from ego when it comes to the shenanigans that often take place. You may recognize some of these traits in yourself or others:
- Over excited and out of control
- Some socialize well and others don't
- Stubborn and refuse to follow their master
- Whining and appears needy
- Mischievous or simply won't listen
- Well trained and on guard
- React easily to what is going on around them
- Puppies being more curious than older dogs
It is ideal when the master and the dog are loyal companions, walking side by side and sharing mutual love, respect and joy. It is beautiful to witness.
There are often people with their dogs at a place down at the river where I go to enjoy nature.
One day a dog appeared from behind some bushes along the riverbank. I wasn't sure if this was the same dog I had seen before because her family wasn't with her.
The dog I remembered seeing around the neighborhood was a beautiful gray and white collie named Angel. She was never alone and was a dog that always appeared to be very well taken care of.
That day the dog actually looked homeless. Her coat was matted and she needed a bath in the worst way. She looked a bit sullen as she walked toward where I was sitting. I didn't want her to get too close because she was filthy dirty and pretty smelly.
She immediately withdrew when a couple of other dogs showed up. Angel went back behind the bushes where she had been hiding out.
A while later Angel's master showed up asking if I had seen her. I pointed to the path she had taken and he continued looking for her calling her name.
On my walk back home I saw Angel and her master in their front yard. He was washing her down and said she must have been on some wild solo adventure.
A couple of days later I saw Angel again in the front yard. She looked at me knowingly and wagged her tail. She seemed content to be at home and physically she looked 100% better after being cleaned up and her coat beautifully groomed.
Humans also feel and look better when we are close to home with our Higher Self. Our inner master wants us to play and enjoy the adventure of life but knows better than to steer too far off the right path.
Our soul, higher self, whatever you call your inner being knows what is in our overall and highest good and will lead us in the direction of our heart's desires. We hear our inner guidance through our intuition.
Try not to let your ego go off on its own mission. Set out on your journey together with your physical and non-physical self.
The ego is habitual. Its instincts are based on survival and reacts when there are perceived threats to its survival. It will choose "what's in it for me," whereas your higher self has the wisdom and intelligence of not only what is in your overall best interest but "the highest good for all."
Your ego can be a loyal friend to your Higher Self and allow the unique expression of your essence to be manifested in the physical world.
When the ego merges with the Higher Self it is an ideal union. The ego will take the lead of the Higher Self's will. The master is then guiding the ego, not the other way around.
Always take the lead from the will of your Higher Self and enjoy the non-physical and physical aspects of yourself together as constant companions in your life.
Self-Enquiry Reflection
- Do you nurture your inner self as much as your physical self?
- Does your personality dominate your life?
- Do you listen to your heart and your mind?
- Do you take time to get in touch with your Higher Self?
- Are you always on the go?
- Are you able to slow down and become present?
Energy Healing clears resistance such as memories, emotions, beliefs, and patterns that keep you separate from your Higher Self.
It is a catalyst for transformation and greatly benefits anyone who has a desire for positive change and seeks to live life on purpose.

Cash Warren is furious and threatened to sue The National Enquirer over report he's cheated on Jessica Alba with Russian model Vera Mishina.
Move over people, Cash Warren is taking his very big steps forward. The film producer threatened to sue The National Enquirer over report he has cheated on actress girlfriend Jessica Alba with Russian model Vera Mishina.
Entertainment Website Hollywood.com reported that Mishina already passed a "rigorous" lie detector test before then telling the National Enquirer her story of getting up close and personal with Warren.
"On the night he picked me up and got me into his bed, he was acting like the world's biggest single man," the beauty was quoted by the publication as saying. "But I found out that only hours after being with me, he was on a plane back to L.A., where he was then photographed having dinner with her (Alba) and acting affectionate."
Mishina went on saying, "If he had told me they had gotten back together there's no way I would have allowed him to sleep with me. I now feel like all he wanted was a one-night stand. I feel used. Cash wasn't very honest to lead me along like he did. Jessica may want to rethink taking him back. He cheated on her the minute he was away from her."
One of the National Enquirer reporters is said to have already called Warren to confirm the cheating report before they made it public. But, the man simply said, "I advise you not to print that if you don't wanna get sued. No comment." He reportedly has hired a lawyer now that the scandal has become talk of the town.

Congratulations go out to Cafe Madeline, which celebrates 10 years in business this month. The cafe, located at the Piper Palm House in Tower Grove Park, is commemorating the anniversary with a brunch special available through January, where guests can buy one brunch at the regular menu price and get the second for just $10.
CASSY VIRES and JOSH RENBARGER, the husband-and-wife team behind the uber-successful Home Wine Kitchen in Maplewood, have announced they'll be opening restaurant No. 2 later this year. The eatery will be named Table, and will occupy the space that used to be The Stable at 1821 Cherokee Street in Benton Park. Look for a communal dining experience with a menu full of locally sourced goodness and a cocktail program, as well. We can't wait!
CHRISTOPHER LEE has announced via Facebook that he will be leaving his post as executive chef at In Good Company--the group that owns Sanctuaria, Diablitos, Cafe Ventana and Hendricks BBQ-- later this month. Lee, who took home top honors at the Chef Battle Royale competition at Taste of St. Louis last year, hasn't said yet what his next move will be. Good luck, Chef!
Central Table Food Hall will be opening in March at 23 South Euclid Ave. in the CWE, at the corner of Forest Park Parkway. The 10,000 square-foot space will house seven separate and distinct food and beverage experiences, seating for 200 and some patio space, along with a retail component. Modeled after such famous food halls as Eataly in NYC and Umamicatessen in Los Angeles, the project aims to satisfy almost any culinary urge—and quickly. Picture a high-quality, high-end food court of sorts. Should be interesting!
The latest edition of Schlafly's long-running Cabin Fever Beer Festival will be held Saturday, Jan. 12 (noon until 4 p.m.), at the Schlafly Bottleworks in Maplewood.

More craft beer news to report: Excel Bottling Company in Breese, Ill., has been making and bottling soda for more than 75 years, and now they're getting into the beer biz. The company began brewing in September, and the first brews, Shoal Creek Wheat, Excel Golden Brew and Shoal Creek Winter Ale are on shelves. Look for Excel Citra, a lighter beer with citrus flavors, and Carlyle Lake Lager to be introduced this summer. Currently the beers are available in Illinois only, but the company is actively looking for a distributor in Missouri.


text: Rich also chastises me for endorsing Wachovia's stock after then-CEO Bob Steel came on "Mad Money" and spoke positively about the bank. Was I taken in? Yes, and I made a mistake. I apologized both on "Mad Money" and on the "Today Show" for believing in Steel. But others say I have been too hard on myself given that the Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating Steel's appearance on my show for truthfulness. I chalk it up to something different: Sometimes you just get had. After the White House briefing, Rush Limbaugh defended me as a wayward leftist who has seen the light. I am always glad to have any allies and defenders, but I do favor almost all of Obama's agenda, right down to having the rich pay more of their freight in this great country. It's just not the right time. We need to declare a war on unemployment and solve it before we let it get out of hand. We need to stop house-price depreciation. Neither the pork-laden stimulus plan nor the confusing mortgage proposal put forward by Obama will defeat either enemy. When Obama trounces both unemployment and house-price depreciation, he will have the power to enact anything he wants. But all the initiatives he wants to rush, like tax hikes, changes in health care, tinkering with the mortgage deduction -- good grief, right now in the midst of the worst housing downturn ever -- and the tough cap-and-trade rules, will derail any chance we have of turning this economy around. Instead, they put the Second Great Depression smack on the nation's table. The markets thought he could stop it; hence the giant relief rally when he was elected. But in fewer than 50 days of his ascendancy, the markets' hopes were totally dashed and the averages are now forecasting the worst decline since the Great Depression. As someone who listens to what the averages are screaming, I think they are accurately predicting the future. I welcome any serious exchange with the administration on the issues that are not beyond my ken: fixing house price depreciation, stopping the destruction of wealth as demonstrated by the stock market's plunge, and solving the banking crisis before we nationalize every bank. (Oh, and memo to Bill Maher: Stop insulting my faux great-great-uncle Vlad Lenin. I am using him to dramatize the point of a failed nationalization and confiscation of the banks at the hands of the people.) It's time to get serious. It's time to take the issue from the pundits and from the left and right, and put it where it belongs: serious non-ideological debate to put out the real firestorm, the collapse of the economy from Wall Street to Main Street and the ensuing Great Wealth Destruction for all. But if it stays ad hominem, we will all be betrayed and the train wreck will become inevitable. At the time of publication, Cramer was long Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo.
