Italy's events exhibition BTC announces 2015 dates
- Published by Ozgur Tore
After a successful exhibition last year with a record attendance of 6858 over two days, Italy's events exhibition BTC, the marketplace for the meetings industry in Italy, announced new dates for the 2015 event. The 31st edition of BTC is back, and again in Florence in 2015. BTC will be held at the Spadolini pavilion of Fortezza da Basso but not on its traditional November date.
For the 2015 event, BTC will be held on Thursday 10 and Friday 11 December, a month after the traditional November date.
Last year, BTC recorded an attendance figure of 6,858 over two days, a sharp rise in buyers from abroad (70% were foreigners from 30 countries), and an all-time record in terms of its programme: 29 seminars, in addition to presentations and a whole day dedicated to hotel marketing, making a total of 40 sessions, most of which were fully booked.

I have an old Mauser (1918) that I a doing some work on. It has been sporterized already(not by me; was that way when my dad bought it) I am looking to put a Timney trigger on it with a safety. I am asuming there will have to be a bit of stock work put into it for the safety. I also ordered a Mauser bolt shroud from Brownells. Do I have this figured right? Will this work out? I plan on taking it to a gunsmith to get the work done. Is there anything else I need to get for a trigger replacement? Any other advice about Mausers? I am very new to them.

This is a guest post by Gregory Ciotti of Sparring Mind.
When it comes to blogging, a number of platforms have come and gone. Recently, Posterous was acquired by Twitter, signifying that a shut-down of the platform was imminent.
I noticed this in a big way; my blog, called I Love Tumblr, which focuses on Tumblr tips and tutorials, had a huge influx of new traffic (especially to my Tumblr vs Posterous article—no surprise there).
I also started to receive a ton of emails from former Posterous users asking me if the Tumblr platform was right for them (or whether WordPress or Blogger was a better choice).
In most instances, I (like Darren) would advise a self-hosted WordPress blog above all others, however, in instances where that really isn't desired, I have been able to honestly (and highly) recommend Tumblr to many bloggers.
Given my large amount of experience with the platform (and given its serious growth in the past few years), I thought I might explain to all of the Tumblr users here on ProBlogger how you can become a problogger on the platform.
Being a problogger on Tumblr
Being a problogger on Tumblr essentially boils down into two broad categories of advice:
- understanding the best practices and strategies specifically for the Tumblr platform (and knowing what makes it different)
- utilizing smart blogging and marketing techniques that work on any platform, and making your Tumblr blog more open to non-Tumblr users.
These pieces of advice sound contradictory, but really they are not. The point is, you need to understand both the Tumblr platform and other standard "best practices" for blogs in general to succeed, and I'm going to show you how to do both today.
Mastering the Tumblr platform
First things first: we need to understand what makes Tumblr different. The three biggest points of difference that you need to understand about Tumblr are:
- the social networking aspects of Tumblr
- what kind of content works well on Tumblr
- how to use the "on-site" features of Tumblr to grow your blog
1. Tumblr's social networking aspects
Tumblr has a number of features that make it resemble a social networking platform as much as a blogging platform.
The main one is that Tumblr users can "follow" other users' blogs—in essence, they can amass a group of followers as well as follow other blogs that interest them.
Sound familiar? It's pretty much the same concept that Twitter uses, except that Tumblr's a blogging platform (WordPress.com has now incorporated this feature as well).
I've written about how to get more followers on Tumblr in the past, and largely, that advice revolves around the topics we're discussing today: knowing what works on Tumblr, and knowing what works on the web at large. We'll address this "follower" aspect more later on, so be sure to keep reading.
The other big social networking aspect that defines Tumblr is the act of "reblogging". Reblogging is similar to retweeting on Twitter, or Facebook sharing, but on Tumblr, you're actually sharing an entire blog post to your followers.
The reblogging is a very powerful feature for Tumblr users: they have the option to either Like or reblog a post they've enjoyed, and they will often choose the latter if it suits their interests. Reblogging showcases whatever you've posted to an entirely new following of Tumblr users.
It's one of the main reason that some quirkier Tumblr blogs have grown so quickly, in addition to the large amounts of press they sometimes recieve (think Garfield Minus Garfield as an example). Currently, my most reblogged post sits at 17,848 reblogs, and it was a goofy post on my personal site, although it did attract about 125 new followers.
I've found it's not the sheer number of reblogs that counts, but rather how related your overall site is to the content being reblogged (i.e. if you post some viral content about cooking, you won't get a lot of followers unless your site is also about cooking).
The last difference with Tumblr is now no longer a difference at all: Tumblr used to be the only platform with post types, but now WordPress has incorporated that feature as well (and theme designers have followed suit), so the only true difference remains in the followers (not available on self-hosted WP blogs) and the reblogging of content, in terms of how the platform operates.
There are numerous SEO differences between Tumblr and other platforms, and the debate over whether anything but self-hosted content is safe to pursue continues, but we will tackle those issues later.
2. What content works well on Tumblr?
The Tumblr userbase is different from other blogging crowds in that it focuses on certain interests more than others. There is definitely a targeted demographic for Tumblr, and there are certainly topics that do better there than others.
Largely, Tumblr users are younger than those on most other blogging platforms, and there is a heavy focus on photo and image content over anything else. See for yourself—here are Tumblr's demographic data from Alexa:
That's not to say text posts cannot go viral on Tumblr, it's just that the "bread and butter" of most Tumblr blogs is going to be image and short multimedia content (audio/video), often catering to younger interests.
The reason for this isn't only to do with Tumblr's demographics, but also with how the platform works.
Reblogging is far more popular with image posts because they are much easier to digest (ah, the typical internet user's attention span!) and because they take up less screen space; if you reblog an entire text post, it might take up a lot of room, while a simple image reblog does not. Users are more likely to share text posts to Twitter and other sources, with the reblog being used almost exclusively for image content.
One popular blog that takes advantage of all of these aspects is the Fake Science Tumblr. Creating humorous, original image content based around a single topic ("fake science" facts), this blog grew tremendously fast with the help of people reblogging all of its images. The vintage style, the crude humor, and the focus on images is the perfect example of the type of blog that would go off like dynamite on Tumblr (not that others won't, it's just that this blog was made for Tumblr).
Another blog that has done quite well on Tumblr is TinyCartridge. This is another successful blog that uses Tumblr's interface well: the topic of the blog is handheld and retro gaming, and as such, many posts are short and focus on a single image or video, perfect for Tumblr.
Don't be fooled, though: Tumblr isn't as limited as you think though… Some big sites have made Tumblr "microblog" additions to their main offerings, and many of these aren't the goofy image-based topics I've been pointing out above.
Examples include the Time Magazine Tumblr blog, the National Post Tumblr, and the LIFE Tumblr.
You will notice of course, that the focus here is still on images, emphasizing my point that Tumblr does best with images, no matter what the topic.
3. Utilizing Tumblr's on-site features
We've already talked about reblogging, but now let's go into more depth and discuss how to use some of Tumblr's other on-site features to increase your blog's exposure.
One of the most powerful features that you can utilize is the Tumblr search feature, located on the right side of all Tumblr dashboards. To make the most of search, you are going to need to understand how tagging works in Tumblr, as it's very different (and much more important) than in WordPress.
Essentially, you can tag your posts with keywords before you publish them to your blog on Tumblr:
These tags are important because they're at the heart of the way Tumblr's search operates: it looks for recent posts on your search via the post's tags. So, if you're running a surfing blog and you aren't tagging each post with "surf" or "surfing", you could be missing out on a ton of on-site searches.
Luckily, you don't have to "overtag" on Tumblr, as it picks up on related content that's tagged with similar terms. Take this example search on "bicycles":
You should add about seven to 15 tags at most to each post. Tagging is important to get your content into the search results, but don't add so many that you look like a spammer.
Mastering "non-Tumblr" tactics
Now it's time to step back from Tumblr for a second, because one of the biggest mistakes I see people make on the platform is that they become too reliant on it, forgetting about the smart marketing strategies that all bloggers should be using, regardless of platform.
The three biggest issues I see are that Tumblr bloggers fail to:
- use the best subscription options
- create an easy-to-navigate and high-converting blog design
- promote their blogs outside of Tumblr.
I'm not sure why these three elements are so often neglected by Tumblr users, but they are, so let's tackle them one at a time.
1. Subscription options for Tumblr
The single biggest mistake people make with blogging (Tumblr or otherwise) is that they forget or neglect to start an email list. This is a tremendous mistake, and it is especially prevalent on Tumblr blogs. The thing that kills me: it's a cinch to get started!
Simply select a good service (I recommend AWeber or MailChimp), check out some guides on how to increase email conversion rates, and be sure to place your forms in the right places (your sidebar is the critical one, although a feature box and end-of-post forms work as well).
It is so important to focus on email, as it's one of the best ways to make your Tumblr more accessible to non-Tumblr users: everybody understands email sign-ups!
It's also good to start a Feedburner feed for your blog, but I wouldn't promote it: RSS readers know how to use it, and your email list is the priority anyway. You can also embed your social media profiles (such as a Facebook like box) into your Tumblr blog, but I'd stick to promoting one at a time—Facebook or Twitter or Pinterest, not all at once.
2. Creating a high-converting blog design on Tumblr
One thing that drives me crazy is how badly some Tumblr users set up their themes. I understand the use of trendy thumbnail or single-column themes, but those themes don't convert! Two-column layouts still rules the roost, even for Tumblr, because they allow you to have sidebar where you put some incredibly important stuff, like your email sign up forms!
What stops people from picking a good theme? Tumblr charges up to $50 for themes on its ThemeGarden.
It's a shame more people don't know about the premium Tumblr themes available on places like ThemeForest that go for around $12, because they could solve this problem easily.
The other thing that most Tumblr users get wrong is anticipating the way people will navigate their blog. Ideally, you are going to want a few resource pages where people can access your best content, some important pages (about, contact, etc.) … and almost nothing else!
That's right, unless you're publishing like a mad man (or woman), you might not even need category pages (navigation menus that show posts via categories) or post archives.
You should remember that less is more when it comes to effective blog design: you are there to let people read content and to subscribe. Other than making sales, that's all you should focus on letting people do. This way, if your users get too overwhelmed and don't know where to go, they can always go back.
The only other decision that you need to make (partly a design choice and partly an accessibility choice) is whether or not you are going to enable comments on your Tumblr. Tumblr itself does not have a commenting system, so you'll have to read up on how to install Disqus to Tumblr before you can allow readers to comment on your posts.
3. Promoting your blog outside of Tumblr
I explored the subscription changes at the beginning of this post because they're relevant to a major aspect of getting your blog to be successful: promoting it off Tumblr.
While you can attract a huge number of followers (and hopefully email subscribers) from Tumblr itself, more attention outside of the platform is always good, and will likely be one of your main sources of new subscribers. So, if you've got email sign-up forms all set up, you can begin this process, one that few Tumblr blogs (or bloggers on all platforms) ever pursue.
One of the best, surefire ways to get more subscribers and more traffic is through guest posting. A guest post essentially allows you to be the opening act for another popular blog (preferably in your niche) that will also allow you to drop a link to your site, sending over traffic and potential subscribers. You should look for sites with at least a few thousand subscribers to guest post on. Any less, and the readership is likely to be too low to be worth the effort.
There are better alternatives to even the guest blogging strategy, however. One is to ask authors if they would like to interview you about something that you've achieved, accomplish, know about, or experienced. This works so well because the interview is all about you, and it looks more natural than a guest post. See what you can offer other bloggers in your niche and try to get featured on their sites.
Are you problogging on Tumblr?
As you've seen today, being a Problogger on Tumblr is largely determined by they way you approach and use the platform, as well as your ability to implement classic marketing knowledge and apply it to your Tumblr blog.
It definitely isn't rocket science. But the question remains: is Tumblr the right choice for your blog?
While I will always fully support the self-hosted WordPress blog, for some people, Tumblr does make sense. If your content is heavily image-based and you think your style would do well on Tumblr, given what you know now about reblogs and the userbase, I would say give Tumblr a go.
The key thing here (I'll say this 100 times if I have to!) is to focus on the end result, which in any blog's case should be building an email list. It's okay to build Tumblr followers and RSS readers and Facebook likes—just make sure you're collecting a slew of emails in the process, and your blog will be built to last, no matter what platform it's on.

Throughout history, names and faces like Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Kate Moss, and most recently, Cara Delevingne, have permeated their hearts and minds as the beautiful blonde du jour. If the blonde girl next door is remarkable, then what can be said of the blonde model, or in this particular case, any one of the blonde busty escorts represented by Elite City Escorts.
Blond Model
Want to know a great piece of news that isn't as big of a secret as it may seem? It's a wide world that we live in, and when it comes to hot blondes the selection is nearly limitless. That said, we'd like to believe that the blonde escorts represented by this elite agency, much like the rest of the variety of elite escorts they represent, are a step above the rest, and truly deserving any pedestal you may place them upon. If you're looking to spoil your companion, look no further.
Even some of the most successful and desirable brunette models throughout time, take Gia Carangi for example, (who you could easily lose hours just looking at) have spoken out about the extra feminine quality possessed only by a blonde. There are loads of tall Russian model escorts with flowing dark hair, busty Spanish model escorts with raven coloured manes, even a fiery haired Italian escort or two available, and they're all worth spending some time with, but there is an age old fascination and allure that comes with a blonde. Think about women who are world renowned for their good looks. Swedish women for example, tall, lean and golden haired, a living trophy and doll. If it's true that blondes have something extra by the way of femininity, the glances that beautiful blondes naturally attract seems inevitable and inescapable.
When you walk into a corporate event, it isn't enough that the woman on your side simply be sexy. Sexy is for parties and nightclubs. Sexy is for casinos and hotel rooms, private beaches where sans bathing suit is the dress code, and every part of Ibiza. You need a woman who will not only make the collective assortment of jaws in the room drop, but also evoke in their minds a sense of something classic and timeless, a natural attraction that's as primal as the pleasure we take in the scent of freshly cut grass or a cup of dark roasted Colombian coffee in the morning. You don't want a blonde escort because of the color of her hair, you want her because you're a man and she is an obvious woman. You want her because of what she represents, for you and all of the men around you, what you have achieved, and ytheir social status, which is just as important as people without it would have you believe that it's not.
There's a special sense of humour in the model escort who happens to be blonde. She knows that she'll be perceived in a certain way, a special way that separates her from the rest, and she's eager for the attention. For your attention. Have a blonde beauty as one of a set of duo escorts, maybe a blonde and a brunette, maybe two blondes, it's all up to you. Whether you're looking for a travel companion for a freeing vacation, a model escort for dates and a highly personalized girlfriend experience, or a hotel escort to keep you company between meetings for a business trip, this London agency has got the right one for you, of the blonde variety.
Many events just aren't suited for attendance without a plus one, if you have to bring someone, you might as well bring someone along who has been almost typecast as having more fun, simply because…well you know how the saying goes. A beautiful and busty escort, tall, blonde, and analogous to a supermodel in the arena of both lingerie and runway, one like Heidi Klum, that doesn't sound too bad does it? What are you waiting for? Scroll through their bodacious blondes, and let your imagination run wild. Then pick up the phone, and take the first step towards turning their fantasies into realities.

Karachi, June 9 (ANI): The International Cricket Council (ICC) has charged West Indies wicket-keeper Denesh Ramdin for wrongly claiming a catch against Pakistan in their ICC Champions Trophy opener win.
The incident took place when Ramdin 'caught' an edge off Pakistani captain Misbah-ul Haq's bat before the batsman had opened his account, following which Australian umpire Steve Davis gave Misbah out, the Express Tribune reports.
However, the report added, replays showed that while Ramdin had initially caught the ball, he had subsequently allowed it to spill out of his grasp.
Stating that Ramdin had been charged with a Level Two breach of the Code of Conduct which relates to 'conduct that is contrary to the spirit of the game', the ICC said that Ramdin has pleaded not guilty to the offence, adding that a hearing will take place in London on Monday.
The report further said that if found guilty, Ramdin could be fined between 50 and 100 percent of his match fees and may be suspended for up to two one-day internationals.
Slamming Ramdin's actions, Misbah had said that he would also would have been disappointed if the Pakistan wicket-keeper did the same thing that Ramdin did. (ANI)

Guest Columnist: Students anything but naive
Published 10:00 pm, Thursday, October 9, 2008
The day the Seattle P-I reported that a "divided constituency" of evangelical voters awaited the vice president candidate debate, I invited a group of Christian university students to talk to me about how religion did or did not have an impact on their politics. Some of them who were Obama supporters had shown up for discussion and cookies with me last spring, and I wanted to see if the sometimes-nasty campaign of the last six months had tarnished their enthusiasm.
When I wrote in the March 18 P-I about the rise in civic interest among young voters, some Soundoff commentators shrugged off the views of college-age voters as "essentially worthless" because they were still so untried out in the cold, cruel world, so naive.
But this time, there was a new element in the equation for the young Christian voters -- Sarah Palin. I had to bake a bigger batch of cookies because twice as many showed up to my open invitation. Some of them were supporting the McCain-Palin ticket; most were Obama-Biden voters.
While the Obama students were pretty skeptical about Palin's qualifications, the Republican students noted that their enthusiasm for the ticket really perked up when she was added.
To my question about the role their faith played in their choice of candidates, I got a lively give-and-take about religion and politics in American life, about separation of church and state and about the tone and rhetoric of the candidates.
Zeek, an Obama supporter, said, "The way Palin talks about God scares me. Alex, a Republican, said, "But calling on God were words used by Lincoln!" They also talked about whether the Democrats were the only ones who cared about the poor and whether it was right to pray for victory in wartime.
The students on both sides had a savvy understanding of the political value to McCain in picking Palin. Each one told me that the candidates' faith was important to them, but they judged whom they supported based on issues.
In turn, I said it surprised me that personal piety and lifestyle histories were not more of a factor in the talk among Christians. Was that true in their circle of friends too? Tyler responded, "I've never heard anyone say they won't vote for McCain because he had an affair, but I have heard people say they will vote for him because of his POW experience.
And then, I hit a nerve. What about the assumption that all evangelicals are Republicans? Was there a difference between people in their age group and the churchgoers reported in the P-I article that morning?
The students seemed a little miffed. Several said they were Obama supporters but their parents were Republicans. None seemed to appreciate the stereotyping of Christians. One of them said the media created much of the labeling. Why? I asked. Gian, a McCain voter, said it was easier to treat people as a uniform bloc: the women's vote, the Hispanic-American vote, the "Christian vote."
Maybe even the "college student vote"? I suggested.
The discussion -- heated but not disrespectful -- was based on judgment, facts, knowledge, and an awareness of issues, popular culture, dislike of media simplification. Finally, I had to wrap up and head home for the company coming to watch the debate.
As I walked out, I could still hear the students trading arguments about their respective candidates. It seemed to me they earned the right to be treated as individual voters. It seemed to me they were anything but naïve.

2012 Genre a month challenge: Wildlife Photography
I'm half way through my month of Wildlife and Nature Photography and I am getting better at shooting moving targets. My father grows a number of plants in the front garden which attract birds and bees. This one he calls the 'cigarette bush' which is not a particularly flattering name. Nevertheless, it remains enticing to bees. I had more than half a dozen bees to choose from, which was lucky, as the buggers are quick!
If you've participated in my Genre a Month Photography Challenge, please post a comment with a link to your efforts on this page.
2012 Genre a Month Challenge: Nature Photography
Thank you mother nature for turning on a cracker of a sunset this evening. I've not seen one this colourful for a long time; perfectly timed too as I'm focusing on wildlife and nature photography this month.
I've learnt, quickly, that wildlife photography is very difficult so think I'm doing three-quarters nature. Even then, it's tough to get an image which captures the true colours. I'm pleased to say that I haven't altered the colours in this photograph and aside from a slight straighten, I've not cropped it either. Nature is so unpredictable. When I got out to photograph a sunset, sometimes she lets me down. Then when I sit on Andrew's couch watching Kevin McCloud's Slumming It not intending on doing any photography, I look out the window to find this beautiful saffron organza stretched across the sky.
So, where are your Wildlife and Nature Photographs for the 2012 Genre a Month challenge? Is anyone with me? If so, please post a link in the comments. [Since writing this blog post; I've now made a special page. Paste your comments and links here.] My only condition is that the photograph be taken for the challenge, please don't link old photographs. I'd like to think that the images posted are ones taken with a view to learning more about the genre of the month.
With several weeks in January left, there's plenty of time to get snapping before I move on to next's month's theme: Travel Photography.
So c'mon, share, otherwise I'll feel very lonely!
2012 Genre a Month Photography Challenge: Wildlife & Nature Photography Take 2
The aim of the 2012 Genre a Month Photography challenge was for me to learn and explore different styles of photography. It's working. I'm learning already.
I'm learning that with Wildlife Photography, the subject is often just out of sight:
Or the sun is in the wrong place:
or it is fleeting and inconsiderately against a poor background:
or worst of all, your subject runs away and hides in a big black hole!
On the positive side, I'm delighted that I can go out and spot a black Cockatoo – thank you Andrew. Better yet, I saw my first ever wild echidna!
Given Wildlife was proving difficult, I switched to the 'Nature' part of the challenge.
Here too, I am learning.
Learning that flowers are too small:
look too much like cauliflowers:
or cause Andrew to think he's stumbled on an opium poppy growing in the middle of nowhere (a poppy maybe but an opium one… in a gravel 'turn-a-round' near paddocks of cows?)
Above all I learnt that if you take a 100 photos, if you're lucky, you may find 3 you like. Here they are:
The tree above is a favourite because it is simple. I like the colour on the trunk. I like the shadows from the spindly branches above. I like the 'cross hatching' of the pine needle carpet.
The 'tipsy' cows just makes me laugh. I'm not sure why but in my head they have names like Bertha, Marge and Mildred.
Finally, my favourite shot of the day. A really simple photograph really. I guess I like the juxtaposition of man and nature in the one picture.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, Mel died at home Saturday, October 23, 2010, surrounded by his family. He was a mensch with a huge heart and a mischievous sparkle. He was a teacher of life through truth, acceptance, giving and forgiving. His core value was to always try to do what was right, and he created his unique map for life with the courage to take risks in the face of formidable challenges.
His love for his family and friends was deep and unqualified. He traveled the world and greeted people with trust, respect, and a sense of adventure. He went above and beyond to support those he loved. Almost anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him would describe how freely he gave of who he was.
As a tenured professor at Antioch College, he encouraged and guided his students with his love of mathematics. As a numismatist, he changed the field through his many notable contributions to preservation of world history. His life was a lesson on how to be a husband and father, how to keep history alive, and how to seek common cause through friendship, kindness and humor.
Many will remember his large body of achievements. His wife Gail, sister Gloria, children Shira, Jeremy, Seth and Liza, grandchildren Leah, Kai, Jorden, YaYa, Evan, Jacob, and many friends here and in every corner of the world will miss his loving heart. Services will be held at Congregation Kol Shofar, 215 Blackfield Drive, Tiberon at 1:00 p.m., Tuesday, October 26th. Burial will follow at Mt. Tamalpais Cemetary, 2500 5th Ave., San Rafael, CA. Memorial contributions may be made to Southern Poverty Law Center.

From Wiki:
A fugue state, formally dissociative fugue or psychogenic fugue (DSM-IV Dissociative Disorders 300.13[1]), is a rare psychiatric disorder characterized by reversible amnesia for personal identity, including the memories, personality and other identifying characteristics of individuality. The state is usually short-lived (hours to days), but can last months or longer. Dissociative fugue usually involves unplanned travel or wandering, and is sometimes accompanied by the establishment of a new identity. After recovery from fugue, previous memories usually return intact, but there is complete amnesia for the fugue episode. Additionally, an episode is characterized as a fugue if it can be related to the ingestion of psychotropic substances, to physical trauma, to a general medical condition, or to psychiatric conditions such as delirium, dementia, bipolar disorder or depression. Fugues are usually precipitated by a stressful episode, and upon recovery there may be amnesia for the original stressor (Dissociative Amnesia).
So now that you know what a fugue state is get ready for Hive Mind's FUGUE, newly released on DVD and ready for any number of your identity's viewing pleasure(s).
After moving in with her boyfriend, a young woman comes to believe her new home is haunted. But when she discovers the last eight months have been erased from her memory, she must unearth what caused the condition … before the past destroys her present.
"FUGUE starts out as a haunted house tale," says director/producer Barbara Stepansky (Hurt), "but a scientific discovery gives the movie an extremely modern and uniquely breathtaking twist. From that point onward, the audience has to ask themselves the same questions about reality as our heroine."
FUGUE starring newcomer Abigail Mittel and Richard Gunn ("Dexter") is currently available on iTunes, Amazon and the film's website, OFFICIAL FUGUE SITE . It will premiere on various digital outlets throughout the rest of the year and has already been impressing folks on the festival circuit winning Best Horror Film at the 2010 Mississippi International Film Festival.

Senator also works to increase funding for COPS Program, Byrne Grants
The budget resolution passed by the Senate today includes an amendment sponsored by U.S. Senator Herb Kohl to restore $170 million for juvenile justice programs that have been chronically underfunded by the Administration. Kohl, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has pushed the Administration -- including the Attorney General and the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation -- to restore funding for successful crime prevention programs in the wake of repeated, drastic and debilitating budget cuts. This year, the President requested only $185 million for juvenile justice programs; the Senate's original budget rejected the President's proposal and included almost $390 million for these programs. Kohl's amendment restores juvenile justice funding to nearly $560 million, the same level of funding these programs received in FY2002. The funding will be used for prevention programs like Title V Delinquency Prevention Program and the Juvenile Accountability Block Grant Program (JABG).
"According to experts in the field, every dollar spent on prevention saves three to four dollars in costs attributable to juvenile crime," Kohl said.
The Title V program is crucial because it is the only federal program solely dedicated to juvenile crime prevention. Title V received $95 million in FY02.
JABG provides funding for intervention programs that address the urgent needs of juveniles who have had run-ins with the law. Positive intervention and treatment at this early stage of delinquency can prevent further violent behavior and steer a young person in the right direction before it's too late. This program received almost $350 million in FY02.
Kohl was also part of a successful effort to increase funding for the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program. The COPS program, administered through the Department of Justice, was passed into law in 1994. The goal was to place 100,000 new officers on the beat by 2000 -- a goal that was realized ahead of time and under budget. COPS grant programs also include assistance for purchasing new technologies and equipment that result in officers spending more time on the streets, and financing the training of former military personnel for local law enforcement. Years of decreases in COPS funding have led to fewer patrol officers on the streets and an increase in violent crime. An amendment sponsored by Sens. Joseph Biden (D-DE) and Kohl to devote $1.15 billion to the COPS program was also included in the Senate budget resolution.
Kohl also cosponsored a bipartisan amendment to increase funding for the Byrne Justice Assistance Grant (Byrne/JAG) Program to more than $900 million. Due to the President's veto threat, the Byrne/JAG Program was cut by approximately 67 percent last year, to a little over $170 million. The President's budget seeks a similar result this year. The Byrne/JAG Program helps fund state and local drug task forces, community crime prevention programs, substance abuse treatment, prosecution initiatives, and many other local crime control programs that help keep our communities safe.

Report: Bears rookie receiver Kevin White to remain out rest of season
Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Kevin White, the team's first-round pick, will remain out for the rest of the season as he recovers from a stress fracture in his leg, the Chicago Tribune reports.
White, the No. 7 pick in the 2015 draft, has yet to play in an NFL game after having surgery in August and progressing slowly in his attempted return. He has been on the physically-unable-to-perform list all season, but there had been speculation the Bears could activate White to the 53-man roster before Tuesday's deadline, allowing him to practice through the end of the season, and potentially make his NFL debut.
The Tribune reports the most likely plan is for White to remain on the PUP list and continue working out with trainers, eyeing a return to the field in 2016. He has been able to practice since Nov. 24 per league rules.
The Bears are 5–7 after losing to the 49ers last week.

Moderate Democrats in the House have joined House Republicans, Senate Republicans, and moderate Democratic senators in calling for a full extension of the Bush tax cuts (or Obama tax cuts, if you must):
"While those in the highest income brackets comprise only 2% to 3% of American
taxpayers, economists estimate that they are responsible for 25% of national
consumer spending," states a draft of the letter obtained by Washington Wire.
"As 70% of our economy is driven by consumer spending, this is not the time to
jeopardize further growth," they lawmakers write.

State agencies, insurers prepare for health exchange launch
Even though the federal government will run Florida's health exchange, state agencies and local insurers are making plans to meet the demand for information. Here is an excerpt from today's story explaining how companies are preparing for the open enrollment period:
The federal government surprised big employers by delaying a key provision of the health care law, but that doesn't mean the law is going away entirely.
A nationwide marketing blitz aimed to help millions of people understand the coming changes and sign up for health care is already underway. The increased demand for information is likely to trickle down to state agencies and local insurance companies.
"This is complicated stuff, and there could be a lot of confusion out there," said Craig Thomas, chief strategy marketing officer at Florida Blue. "So we feel like anything we can do to help consumers understand their choices and actually enroll and get coverage is helpful."
Florida Blue will offer a variety of plans on the health exchange that the federal government will operate in Florida. Starting Oct. 1, people will be able to go online, apply for tax subsidies and purchase insurance policies.
Until then, the federal government is working on educating people about the options and their responsibilities. Individuals who don't purchase insurance in 2014 could face a $95 tax penalty.

QUETTA: The embattled Chief Minister of Balochistan, Nawab Aslam Raisani, struck back at his detractors on Tuesday by managing a unanimous vote of confidence in the provincial assembly.
The assembly session was convened by Acting Speaker Syed Matiullah Agha on late Monday night in open defiance of Acting Governor Mohammad Aslam Bhootani who had earlier in the evening put on hold a session convened by Governor Zulfiqar Magsi.
Mr Bhootani took the action after he assumed the office of governor when Mr Magsi went abroad on leave.
After victoriously manoeuvring his coalition partners, particularly the JUI-F, to stand by him, Nawab Raisani described the Tuesday's session as historic and indicated that he would now move to get Mr Bhootani deposed by the assembly from the post of speaker.
Nawab Raisani had lately come under a lot of pressure from the Supreme Court and also from the provincial chapter of his Pakistan People's Party.
Acting Speaker Matiullah Agha, who belongs to JUI-F, had convened the session on a requisition singed by 19 members apparently to demonstrate his party's solidarity with the chief minister.
Maulana Wasay, Ehsan Shah and Zamarak Khan Achakzai moved the motion and the 44 members, who attended the session, stood up to support it, expressing confidence in the leadership of Nawab Raisani.
The house vowed to frustrate the conspiracy hatched against the elected government. It said joint efforts would be made to improve the situation in the province and remove the hurdles in the way of development.
Maulana Wasay said Balochistan, like other provinces, was facing the problem of law and order because of internal and external conspiracies. He said people of the province were facing a difficult situation and it was the responsibility of the house to review the situation.
Ehsan Shah, Mir Asim Kurd, Zamarak Achakzai, Sardar Aslam Bizenjo, Mir Zafarullah Zehri, Mir Ali Madad Jattak, Shama Parveen Magsi, Abdul Khaliq Achakzai, Mir Abdur Rehman Mengal, Ainullah Shams, Asfandyar Khan Kakar, Shah Nawaz Marri and Mir Asad Baloch spoke on the occasion.
The legislators said Balochistan had been facing conspiracies against elected governments since 1970 when the province was established, but the people had boldly resisted extra-constitutional moves.
They said conspirators had been using anti-people elements to create disorder, but political forces always defeated undemocratic forces through constitutional struggles.
The speakers rejected allegations that the coalition government was involved in embezzlement of development funds and was unable to protect the people.
They said situation in three other provinces and Islamabad was worse than in Balochistan. Dozens of people were being killed in Karachi every day and the situation was the same in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, but the Supreme Court did not take any notice of that.
They said terrorists had attacked sensitive institutions in Islamabad and Lahore but the court did not take any action against the federal government.
The legislators said the requisition for the session meant to give a message to some quarters that they had confidence in the chief minister and the coalition partners were working like a team or a family to foil all conspiracies.
They said they respected the Supreme Court and its verdicts and would accept all its decisions but would not tolerate any extra-constitutional or unlawful action.
They alleged that some political groups that had boycotted general elections in 2008 were using courts to create trouble for the provincial government.
They said they believed in the unity and solidarity of the nation and wanted to amicably resolve all issues but some elements were looking towards the US, India and the United Nations for help.
They said some individuals from Balochistan sitting in Dubai, London and Washington could not decide the fate of the people by issuing dictates from abroad, and asked them to return to the country and contest the elections next year.
They said the coalition firmly believed in a constitutional, democratic and political struggle to protect resources of the province, including the Reko Diq project.
They said exploiters were hatching conspiracies against the chief minister because they were not happy with his bold stand on the Reko Diq project. The legislators declared that they had no complaints against Nawab Raisani and ruled out the possibility of in-house change. They warned that dissolution of the assembly would be resisted through a constitutional and democratic struggle.

"There are unlimited renewable resources and the technology is ready. We just need good policy. And that's why it's really critical we have leaders like President Obama who are going to broadly support new and better policies."
If you want to continue the progress we've made on building a stronger economy and taking care of our environment - join Environmentalists for Obama today.

Explosion kills one woman in Piedras Negras

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Police in Piedras Negras confirm that an accidental explosion in a customs building on Mexico's border with the U.S. has killed one woman and injured five other people.
Felix Alberto Lopez Arenas is the director of operations for the local municipal police in the city on the border with Texas. He toldThe Associated Press that the woman who died in the Sunday blast suffered a fractured skull and the other five people had burns.
Lopez Arenas said the blast occurred in the morning in a dormitory for customs agents. The cause of the explosion is under investigation, but authorities believe it was caused by an accumulation of gas.
The explosion did not affect border operations.

Kodak EasyShare C643 review
I bought this camera last year sept on a trip to vegas because I forgot to take my old 3mp kodak camera.
As I wanted to take pictures I bought one at a local wall-mart.
The quality of the image is poor. Whenever there is enough light images are ok. But even inside an exhibition floor pictures were very poor.
At home I did a test using my old kodak camera and pictures on that one looked even better than on this new 6mp camera. Even inside the old camera using flash would give good images.
When trying sport mode and zoom the more I zoom the darker the image gets and only outside it can really be used.
I would not recommend this camera to anyone
Only good quality images when enough light is available.
Sports mode would make images to dark when using zoom

Dieting is about changing your eating habits to lose weight. Unfortunately, diets are associated with eating to live instead of eating to enjoy. A diet that only sustains you won't last very long because it's extremely difficult to become accustomed to foods you don't enjoy. It's even harder to give up the foods you love. Successful weight loss is based on a simple rule. If you burn more calories than you eat, the weight will come off. You can check out your daily calorie needs by using a calorie calculator. Once you get an estimation of the number of calories your body burns each day, all you need to do is eat less.
Even if your favorite food isn't the healthiest option (chocolate, pizza, chips, doughnuts) eating it won't necessarily cause your diet to automatically fail. Because dieting is based on the amount of calories, you need to practice moderation when eating foods you love which aren't healthy. If you love pizza, do you really expect your diet to last a long time if you won't let yourself have any?
Temporary Change
The problem with diets is that they're built on a foundation of temporary change. You cut calories for a month or two, lose weight and then go back to your old eating habits. This will result in failed diets and only short term weight loss. If you want to permanently stay at your ideal weight, you need to have a long term plan that includes the unhealthy foods you love. Again, moderation is key.
Cheat Days
Having a slice of pizza every few days won't kill your diet. Having a few slices every day of the week will. The same goes for chocolate. Having a few pieces today won't throw your diet off track, but having a few bars will. You need to learn to satisfy yourself with smaller portions. You can also build cheat days into your diet which will allow you to have one day each week (or every other week) in which you can eat whatever you want. These days can help you better cope with a strict diet.
The Bottom Line
Food tastes good for a reason: so we'll eat it. If your diet is based on depriving yourself of a food you enjoy, it will fail. Responsibly allowing yourself to eat the foods you love is the only way to achieve long term success.

New music review: Om Suite Ohm, Harry Manx (Dog My Cat)
Harry Manx's sixth studio album, in true stay-the-course fashion, sticks with the mixture of blues, folk and eastern scales that has defined his sound since he released his first album, Dog My Cat, in 2001.
Impervious to trends, uninterested in production sweeteners and indifferent to demographics, Manx has nonetheless become a modest success story.
Success, of course, is an elusive concept in the roots music field: it must be at least partially defined by looking outside the marketplace. In other words, while Manx won't be chasing Rihanna up the charts any time soon, he has built a following by strapping on just about anything with strings and tinkering obsessively with the fascinating blend of styles that has defined his art.
It's his life's work, and this latest album is another necessary step up the latter to the goal beyond, a chapter in a book that might never be finished. But it's not as if the ending matters. In the here and now, we have ourselves another incomparable passage of desert cool.
If there's a slight change in tone this time, it's thanks to the inspired presence of keyboard player Clayton Doley, who adds plenty of Hammond B3 organ to the mix. As a result, the Indian-influenced songs get a slightly funky edge. The opener, Further Shore, and the haunting, bluesy Saya, are almost a full reunion of Manx's four-member review World Affairs, which killed at last year's Montreal International Jazz Festival. For these two tracks, Manx and Doley are reunited with multi-instrumentalist Yeshe, who co-wrote them.
Way Out Back, boldly placed as the second track on the disc, is a perfect example of Manx going his own way: it is a dreamy piece, with lyrics spoken evocatively by Gunjurra Waitairie over a drone backing. After a minute and a half, a rhythm kicks in and Manx's slide guitar provides a ghostly counter-narrative.
There are several soothing stopovers along the way. The Moon Rose Up is a melancholy, atmospheric piece that could be a more exotic companion to Phil Collins's In the Air Tonight; Reuben's Train, a revisit from Manx's debut disc, is traditional folk with eastern majesty and Carry My Tears – reclaimed from Strictly Whatever, his 2011 collaboration with Kevin Breit – is still waiting to be covered by Van Morrison.
For those who never miss a Manx album, nothing is revealed here. If you're following his journey, you wouldn't expect otherwise. For those who are just stepping onto the wagon, everything ancient is new again.
Rating: ****
Podworthy: Carry My Tears
(Om Suite Ohm will be available Feb. 12. Watch for our feature interview with Manx, which will appear the same day, in print and at montrealgazette.com. We'll also have an exclusive video performance to go with it.)

(NEW YORK) — 48-year-old Bernard Hopkins won the IBF light heavyweight title on Saturday night with a 12-round unanimous decision over Tavoris Cloud at the Barcalys Center in Brooklyn.
With the victory, Hopkins becomes the oldest boxer to win a major championship. He breaks the previous record which he set in 2011, when at the age 46 he defeated Jean Pascal to win the WBC light heavyweight title.
The fight was slow paced until the sixth round when Hopkins opened a cut above Cloud's left eyelid, which referee Earl Brown ruled it an accidental head-butt. However, replays seemed to indicate the injury was caused by a left hook from Hopkins.
Hopkins would go on to take control of the fight, landing outside jabs and inside punches. According to CompuBox statistics, Hopkins connected with 169 of 417 (41 percent) punches while Cloud landed 139 of 650 (21 percent).
Hopkins improves to 53-6-2 while Cloud falls to 19-1.

Either that or include some reasonably fancy conflict detection/resolution program with gpm that can give a reasonable shot at keeping the system from becoming unusable. -- Raul

It's now that time of year where everyone heads back to the gym and executes their business plans for 2012. Remember all of that budgeting that you did last year? As it relates to the business side, let's look at what you can do to bolster your digital marketing efforts.
One of the most vital elements is to choose the correct messaging approach to your target market. Those target audiences or communities are now used by more than 67 percent of the global population. Social media has brought us better opportunities to reach out to your audience. So we can learn more about our audience and apply the right messaging. However, it can become a problem if you don't become more resourceful with your time.
Learn to distinguish if your target audience is posters or seekers. The poster simply posts articles, resources, tips, etc. The seekers are seeking content. This distinction is important to help you understand users' motivations and needs.
Build Out Your Editorial Calendar
This is one of the single best tools you can use to plan ahead. Imagine having a calendar and you pass this around to all staff members. What you want to do is to plan out what content goes with an upcoming article, newsletter, email, etc.
For instance, let's say you and your team have decided to resurrect your blog and dedicated to keeping it up. This editorial calendar allows your team to plan all events related to the blog and the type of articles needed to support this messaging. Then articles are assigned to each team member with a deadline. This allows you to stay up on it. By staying up on your blog consistently, you will demonstrate to your visitors that you can be trusted. They will then reciprocate by participating more on your blog, which leads to more conversions and other opportunities.
Review Past Results
Now is also a chance to review past analytics and put together an executive summary that will outline the highlighted features of the past year. This benchmarking will enable you to do comparisons each month. Here are some things to look out for:
- Audience behaviors
- Channel preferences
- High and low peaks that represent success and failure for all channels
- Past political, environmental, and industry changes
By doing this you'll be much better at understanding new differences in changes as they come along.
Reaffirm Business and Channel Goals
Take the time to review your business and channel goals. Or you may need to start from scratch and get one written. As you study these goals, map how they impact your team's goals for 2012. This will also help you in writing your 2012 editorial calendar. You can then spread out your goals on a monthly basis.
Double-Check Your Tool Sets
I like this one because I sometimes get too attached around one tool and don't take the time to look at newer tools coming out. The new tools can easily save you time and money by providing a higher quality product for about the same cost.
So dust off your toolset and see if there are any updates or new releases that need to be installed. You never know, sometimes that is all it takes. Then do a bit of research and identify a few sets of new tools that would be good replacements. A good way to do this is to attend a tradeshow. There are usually many tool vendors that will be glad to offer you a tour and a t-shirt.
This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it will get you into the right mindset as you prepare yourself for your 2012 digital marketing plan.

http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=debugging#dev_mode says that by default, sites running on localhost are set in dev mode. And my site ran on localhost.
Hey I have this problem too, and i think it is because the tutorials folder does NOT contain a config.php file,
so I went into the mysite folder, where there is one, and copied and pasted it into the tutorials folder.
Now I dont know what that php means. The only thing I changed was the line at the top from
global $project;
$project = 'mysite';
global $project;
$project = 'tutorial';
it kinda worked, as in it made the homepage table. but it got confused because it said i have two page files
Warning: Warning: there are two 'Page' files both containing the same class: 'C:/wamp/www/SilverStripe-v2.2.3/tutorial/code/Page.php' and 'C:/wamp/www/SilverStripe-v2.2.3/mysite/code/Page.php'. This might mean that the wrong code is being used. in C:\wamp\www\SilverStripe-v2.2.3\sapphire\core\ManifestBuilder.php on line 253
so how do you point the config file towards the tutorial folder?
please update silverstripe so the right config folder appears in the tutorial folder, because this is creating a lot of confusion.
am I right with this analysis?
If you install SS and what do run through the tutorial then make sure you select the 'Tutorial' theme option on the install screen. Depending on whether you install with the 'BlackCandy' or the 'Tutorial' theme options determines where SilverStripe creates the _config.php file. If you want to swap between the 2 make sure you copy the file as you have done and edited the $project var but you also need to remove the old _config file (eg the one in mysite if you want to use the tutorial code'.
This has been tidied up in 2.3. All the code (tutorial or not) will be stored in mysite so you won't need to worry about it once that gets released and we will update the tutorials then.
oh ok great, that helps.
I think I did choose the tutorial option when installing though. But maybe I didn't.

Realistc & Melodic
Awesome intro, it got me hooked into the song right away. The Choir & strings combined with the asian-sounding plucked instrument, bring an ethereal setting to mind, and sets the listener up for the next section.
Powerful strings at :48 seconds, easily usable for protagonist conflict/loss scenarios.
At 1:05 you may considering using an additional section of violins one octave higher.
The use of the music box, puts s tender sort of feel to this song, reminiscent of Elfin Lied.
I would also love to hear a completed version of this song!
Good job man! :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I know this sounds weird, but...
In the beginning it sounds amazing and ambient, but at the break in the song, it seems to change over to something that sounds like a mix between your Time's Up remix, something from the Tron soundtrack, and a song from Okami.
...I know, my mind works very oddly. But it's still awesome! :D
Rated 5 / 5 stars
am i reading this right? disappoint?
you never disapointed us with this music-correction, this wonderful peice of art... this, is wonderful
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I agree with MarkySpark
The strings sound pretty amazing, if you ask me.
Actually, let me just cut to the chase... This whole "song" is amazing.
For a person to listen to this short, epic song... and say "I don't like this." It'd simply be that they do not like the genre or that they have something against you.. You should really finish this, I think it can turn out to be a top 5, and so on afterward.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Keep up the great work, and keep working to better your self! This piece shows you have a lot of potential!

glad you like it pal! thanks for dropping by!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
I never thought you could make a bloody picture of Dad 'n Me and look cute, but you did it! It's also sweet how you acknowledge the fact that the Vikings were in a certain decade. I think it was probably more around the 1010's, but that's hard to say. I like how there's so much stuff going on. Like how the shadows on the ground are nicely done. I also like how you put a realistic twist on where the blood would be.
If horned helmets were that effective, it probably would look like that. I like how the kid has such of a concerned look on his face while his dad is hit in the head by an arrow. Every bit of these characters' clothing seems to be made of something different. I just noticed that these guys have no toes. I doubt they're wearing shoes.
