Personalisation brings one-to-one marketing to your audiences.
Customers want you to know them. To respect their individuality. Convincing your audiences that you are talking to each individual directly takes personalisation. Without creating a one-to-one experience, you risk losing them before you have a chance to tell your brand story.
For marketers, personalisation means everything. It describes the strategy and tactics of delivering content and experiences that speaks directly to individuals when, where and how they choose. Personalisation has become vital to success as consumers take more control over their buying process.
Consumers want to engage with brand experiences that are relevant to their needs. It's up to you as a marketer to create those experiences. Personalisation allows your audiences to feel like you know them and that you respect them as individuals.
But personalisation isn't just about marketing to people. It's about creating a mutually rewarding experience. Loyalty rewards, special promotions and unique events aren't always about enticing a purchase. You're building a relationship. Creating a satisfying and delightful journey with your brand. Today's consumers have so many options available, so it's critical and, in fact, foundational to do right by your customers. This is what we call the Experience Business.
See why we feel we're best positioned to move you from analytics to digital intelligence in the latest Forrester Wave. Download now ›
Fuel personalisation with data.
Some marketers have historically felt that personalisation is achieved by inserting fields such as First Name into email messages. But creating effective communications doesn't simply rely on a few authenticated data points. To be successful, you have to bring all your data together. Adobe Experience Cloud helps you to connect data from across all your digital and off-line marketing resources to create a one-to-one relationship.
The holy grail of personalisation is developing that one-to-one connection, not by identifying distinct behaviours or traits, but by leaning on a 360-degree view of an individual. Adobe Analytics provides the engine that can extract insights from the data you collect. You can develop a high-resolution image of your customers by layering data on top of data. The more data you layer into a customer profile, the deeper you can tailor the experiene.
Personalisation requires a variety of data points including:
- Location. Geo-targeting can play a significant role in the relevance of your messaging. For instance, if your brand sells apparel, you want to deliver product offers based upon local climate. You want to send different content to audiences in Florida than those living in Alaska.
- Region. Identifying audience characteristics in different regions helps to target content more effectively. Customers in Japan will typically be different from those in France. So your personalisation strategy must take into account cultural or political nuances.
- Behaviour. Behavioural data defines how visitors have interacted with your marketing activities and it's constantly evolving in real time. Whether you're looking at session data from mobile interactions or social activity from Facebook, audience behaviours should be baked into the 360-degree profile you are developing.
- Interests. Finding your customer's top-level motivations is critical to personalisation. Data can reveal interests, desires, needs and influences. Interaction data provides you with insights that help you to determine products, offers and content to be delivered.
- Channels. Your audiences come through a variety of pathways. For many, a mobile device is used to connect with your brand story. But there are still plenty who rely on desktop web to research their potential solutions. Don't forget about social channels, email, in-store experiences or venue-based screens. Traffic data from all your channels reveal crucial information about your audiences' habits.
Lean on targeted recommendations to make personalisation easier.
You have the ability to provide personalised experiences by offering recommendations based upon data collected about a customer in Adobe Experience Cloud. Without setting up a single targeting rule, you're able to automate the targeting process, so you can increase conversions while reducing your workload.
Adobe Target provides personalised customer recommendations through sophisticated algorithms that run in the background. These algorithms suggest the content, offers and products that are most likely to engage and convert customers without the need for a data scientist to interpret big data analytics. By automating recommendations, you don't have to spend valuable time and effort selecting content, products or messaging that might miss the mark.
Adobe Target also provides criteria selection templates that let you modify parameters such as Top Sellers, People Who Bought or Viewed This Also Bought and more. You can create templates for your specific industry and easily re-use effective recommendations for different audiences.
You can easily set up customer recommendations using industry-specific guidance built on proven best practices. Recommendations can be triggered by page views, shopping behaviour, search activities or buying history.
Save time and eliminate marketer bias with automated personalisation capabilities.
For brands with small marketing teams, personalising campaigns so they create the highest engagement can be challenging. Without a room full of data scientists at your disposal, you've got to generate ROI with scarce resources. Automation is critical to creating one-to-one engagements with audiences all over the world.
Automation is critical to creating one-to-one engagements with audiences all over the world.
Adobe Target automates personalised content or experiences with self-learning algorithms. Automation algorithms quickly discover associations between numerous
events, and recognise variations between observed and predicted behaviours. You don't have to manually correlate multiple variables, saving countless hours of analysis and calculations.
Marketers may be prone to biases, so Adobe Target uses machine learning to produce a more objective view of your customers. It runs automated personalisation algorithms to prove assumptions you have about your audiences. Testing assumptions can also surface potential audiences you might not have considered by calculating statistical significance without the help of data scientists.
Taking insights generated by Adobe Analytics, your campaigns can automatically aim and engage with great precision. Built-in algorithms bake in location, device data,
behavioural data and numerous other variables to create a customer view with no bias.
Adobe's targeting capabilities constantly self-test to adapt your targeting effort to maximise success. Machine learning boosts your ability to get to know your audiences
at a one-to-one scale faster and more accurately. Variables are weighted based on time and other factors that can degrade the relevance of your messaging.
Make personalisation a priority in your marketing campaigns.
Personalisation can be
time consuming without the right tools. To be successful at personalisation, you use a testing and targeting solution like Adobe Target to understand audiences, to communicate better and to become more relevant. You can improve product discovery, increase sales or engagement and reduce bounce rates using sharper precision. Even with ten or twenty page experiences available, ranging from minor creative adjustments to entirely different layouts, creating a personalised experience brings you closer to marketing maturity and helps define your brand as an Experience Business.
Adobe can help.
Adobe believes personalisation is crucial to higher engagement levels, improved traffic volume and better conversion rates. Adobe Target helps you to create better experiences throughout your brand story by revealing personalisation opportunities that used to take weeks and months to discover.

Review: Wiser's Legacy Canadian Whisky
Posted by Arctic Wolf on October 30, 2011
On November 11, 2009 I published my review of Wiser's Red Letter Whisky. I was very pleasantly surprised to receive an email the very next day from Corbys Distillers (Canadian Office). Apparently my review had been noticed, and they were interested if I maybe would like to receive a lab sample of a new whisky, Wiser's Legacy.
Of course the answer was yes. This is something that every reviewer wants, a chance to test his or her palate on a new spirit with very little information in the public realm to pollute the tasting notes. No other information was sought or obtained by myself. The review was as clean as a review could get and I posted it almost two years ago as a First Impression review (I lacked any information on the bottle presentation which is included in all my full reviews).
It took nearly two years for me to receive a picture of the final bottle (J-peg) so that I could properly move the review from the First Impressions area of my website to my Canadian Whisky reviews section of the website.
Here is an excerpt from my finalized review:
"…Thick oil coats the throat with an oak and spice explosion. The exit leaves the mouth puckered somewhat from the dry woodiness, and the throat is assaulted by spices which grow hotter in the throat than they were in the mouth. At the end of the finish, typical Canadian rye flavours finally appear en masse to battle the youthful oak down the throat. The overall impression is that something awesome just might have happened in my throat, but it is hard to describe exactly what it was…"
Here is a link to my full Review:

A man has been arrested after four Boston Police officers were dragged by a vehicle early Wednesday morning.
Police approached a vehicle on Stoughton Street in the Upham's Corner section of Boston's Dorchester neighborhood around 12:30 a.m. after receiving a report of a person with a gun.
Police said the driver accelerated when asked to get out of the car and dragged two officers down the street. The car also struck two officers, causing them to fall to the ground.
U.S. & World
A description of the car was put out, and police pursued it up Columbia Road before losing it in the area of Draper Street.
The four injured officers were transported to Brigham and Women's Hospital with what were described as non-life-threatening injuries. They have since been treated and released.
"We should be thankful for that considering what's going on in the world, across the United States, at this period of time right now," Boston Police Superintendent Randall Halstead said.
At 10:20 a.m., police say they arrested 34-year-old Vincent Weaks of Roxbury. He faces four counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He'll be arraigned in court Friday.
It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.

Pacific Northwest
Earth : North America : United States of America : Pacific Northwest
The Pacific Northwest of the United States is best known for its beautiful coastline, green interior, rainy weather, and spectacular mountains.
Sometimes the neighboring areas of northern California, western Idaho, Southeastern Alaska, and British Columbia are also considered part of the Pacific Northwest.
There are hundreds of cities and towns in the Pacific Northwest; check the states above for more complete listings. Here are ten of them.
Other destinations[edit]
The Pacific Northwest is an outdoorsy place, and there are lots of places to camp and see in the Pacific Northwest. Here are some major ones you should check out.
Most people associate the Pacific Northwest with a lush region that receives large amounts of rain during the winter months, with wonderful summer days. But the Northwest has a variety of climate regions, from the Pacific Coast to the valley and, once over the mountains, a desert region -- all within a few hours drive of each other. There is enough to keep the outdoor enthusiast busy. The Pacific Northwest is known for its airplane and computer product facilities. Some of the largest and most well-known corporations call the Northwest home, these include: Costco, Eddie Bauer, Expedia, Amazon.com, Starbucks, Tully's Coffee, Lionsgate Studios, Boeing, Microsoft, Intel, and Nike just to name a few. There are many exciting areas to see.
English is the main language spoken in the Pacific Northwest and most people living there speak it. There is also a large community of Spanish speaking people in North Western Oregon as well as Southern Washington, but most are bilingual. Knowledge of other languages generally won't assist in this area.
Get in[edit]
The most convenient "gateways" to the Pacific Northwest are Seattle and Portland. Both of these cities are well-connected to the rest of the world by plane, car, or train, and are good starting points for trips to other areas of the Pacific Northwest.
By bus[edit]
By air[edit]
The main airports in the Pacific Northwest are Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and Portland International Airport. Both airports offer flights to most cities in the USA and some flights to Asia and Europe. Other smaller airports are sprinkled around the Northwest, but most have few commercial flights except to other places in the Pacific Northwest.
By train[edit]
Amtrak offers three routes serving the Northwest.
By car[edit]
I-5 runs north-south from the Canadian border through Seattle and Portland to California. From the east, there are two main options: I90, from Seattle east to Chicago and Boston, and I84 which starts in Portland and goes southeast to Salt Lake City.
Get around[edit]
Outside the main cities of Portland and Seattle, public transportation is scarce and is not of much use for extensive sightseeing, so renting a car is a good idea. Although distances can be long, most roads are paved and well-maintained.
See[edit][add listing]
The Pacfic Northwest is a very diverse region and has a lot of beautiful scenery, including rugged coastlines, sparkling streams, picturesque islands and jagged mountains. Some of the destinations are listed in the Other Destinations section: here are some more sights.
Do[edit][add listing]
Buy[edit][add listing]
Eat[edit][add listing]
Drink[edit][add listing]
If you are passing through Astoria, Oregon (the town where the movie "The Goonies" was filmed), stop by Hondo's Brew & Pub. They have micro-brews and a fantastic set of home brew supply equipment. The brewmaster, RJ Keipke, is very knowledgeable. [[1]]
Sleep[edit][add listing]
Use standard tools to find brand name hotels. Alternatively, there are some hidden jewels in the Pacific Northwest, deep in the Cascades mountains such as the Cascades Inn in historic Skykomish, WA.
Stay safe[edit]
Get out[edit]

Amber Nichols (left) and Chloe McIntosh (right) were named to the Big South Lacrosse All-Tournament team on Sunday.
Liberty captains Amber Nichols and Chloe McIntosh have been named to the Big South Conference Lacrosse All-Tournament team. The announcement was made following the conclusion of Sunday afternoon's title game between Davidson and High Point at Richardson Stadium.
In Friday's semifinal game versus No. 1 seed Davidson, Nichols recorded a team-high three goals for the Lady Flames. It was the senior's second career hat trick, with the first coming earlier this season on April 14 at Winthrop. Nichols also added three draw controls, two ground balls and a caused turnover. Nichols' three draw controls matched her career high.
McIntosh followed up her Big South second team all-conference and All-Academic team awards on Thursday night with the first all-tournament team honor of her career. The redshirt senior tallied a pair of ground balls and a caused turnover against Davidson.
Liberty concluded the season with an 8-10 overall record, including a 4-3 mark in Big South contests. The eight wins set a new single-season program record, besting the 2011 mark of seven victories.
2013 Big South Women's Lacrosse All-Tournament Team Jasmine Jordan, High Point (MVP) Cissy Woodyard, High Point Emily Meier, High Point Alec Perry, High Point Jessica Melby, Davidson Erin McGuire, Davidson Abigail Doelger, Davidson Kathleen Battle, Longwood Jamie Brentlinger, Longwood Chloe McIntosh, Liberty Amber Nichols, Liberty

Oh Jamie Campbell...You are such a nerd
Because if you really did, then that's way beyond sad.
What...you couldn't think of any inspirational Huey Lewis lyrics off the top of your head? Didn't have the time to rattle off a full throated version of Starship's "We Built This City"?
Isn't it a little bit of a bummer that we're going to have to brave our way through another bone-chilling Canadian winter to get to the next season, and our great reward for making our way through it is to have six months of Jamie Campbell prattling on about sweet shite-all.
Possibly the worst (and best) writing on the Blue Jays, all in one fell swoop
We're not sure who Aaron Miller is, or why somebody at CityNews.ca decided to transcribe his crayon scribblings and post them on their website.
Miller's article is so dumbfoundingly empty-headed and ridiculously pointless that reading it left us with a nausea that we haven't felt since we were 12 and went a little crazy with the speed on the teacups ride at the county fair with a belly full of cotton candy and corndogs.
Thank goodness, there's Neate at Out of Left Field to give him the Fire Joe Morgan treatment. It's a worthy hommage to the great Ken Tremendous, and worth the read.

I liked Andrew's column better when I wrote it two weeks ago with the premise "none of these guys would play every day on the 2008 Blue Jays."

Aaron, not Andrew. All my credibility is now gone.

Oh my god, it's so depressing to see former Jays find success on other teams! I can't believe that the organization would deal away Eric Hinske.
Journalism at its finest, folks!

By the way Tao, which lyric did Campbell use to start the show? I hope it was "Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the track
And shovin' into overdrive".

Does anyone see JC moving onto a different job anytime soon? Other than that, he's going to have to retire someday.
Nobody knows how better than this guy to drain entertainment from a baseball game.
- October 27, 2008 at 11:35 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
The lyric was from a song called "This Is It", which we are happy to say that we don't know.
(And which doubles the fun on this: It wasn't just Kenny Loggins...it was OBSCURE Kenny Loggins.)
Now that you mention it, we remember that post of yours, which nailed it. Moreover, it's not like many of these guys went directly from Toronto to their current teams. Werth, Gross, Hinske, Miller...they all had other stops along the way, so it's a little rich to take the point of view that Andrew or Aaron or Aardvark or whatever took.
That article was just a typical example of a Toronto douchebag sports media type mistaking cynicism for insight. Maybe one day, he'll grow up to become the next Gareth Wheeler.
- October 28, 2008 at 7:55 AM
- The Ack said...
Maybe the Loggins song was rocking the jukebox in the Halifax bar when JC smooched his female co-worker, and thus, burned into his memory.
Oh, and completely off topic, but fuck Joe Maddon by the way. Now he's whining about the alleged substance on Joe Blanton's cap. Seems the Rays are the only team that plays the game the "right" way, I guess.
- October 28, 2008 at 10:02 AM
- Ian Hunter said...
Obscure Kenny Loggins? I like The Ack's theory as to why JC even knows the words to that song. What's next ... Night Ranger?
- October 28, 2008 at 12:32 PM
- Thenamelessavenger said...
haha, this is not the first time he's started a game with an obscure song quote. He said "it's cold outside, but it gets so hot in here" from U2's 11 O'Clock Tick Tock earlier this year.
- October 28, 2008 at 1:39 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Except that 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is actually kind of a good song by a band that was good once upon a time.
But Kenny Loggins is Kenny Loggins.
Kick off your Sunday shoes.
- October 28, 2008 at 2:12 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
BTW...we just finally realized which song "This Is It" actually is...and it is not obscure at all.
If you grew up in the early 80's, you heard it a million times on AM radio.
It's just that some of us left the song back where it belonged.
How is it that we're still talking about Kenny Frickin' Loggins?
- October 28, 2008 at 2:17 PM
- The Ack said...
I'd prefer to take the Highway to the Danger Zone, if you don't mind Tao.
- October 28, 2008 at 2:17 PM
JC, JP fuck em all! Loggins is a gutless dicklicker. He was the darling of AC radio in the lates 70s/early 80s.U2 is a good reference though especially the song in question BUT Loggins and Night Ranger. Those groups make Triumph look edgy! I don't wanna hear comments about Gil Moore tracks either, they were three chord wonders with a loud guitar part! Mike Levine only knew two notes on the bass BUT they blew away Loggins......
- October 28, 2008 at 3:36 PM
Cynical motherfuckers, aren't we?
- October 28, 2008 at 10:41 PM
- MK Piatkowski said...
"This is It" is my favourite Kenny Loggings song. So many good memories attached to it. So go ahead boys, do your worst.
- October 28, 2008 at 11:22 PM

That piece at CityNews caused me to throw up in my mouth.
Tao/Ack, what are your thoughts on Mike Jacobs?
- October 29, 2008 at 12:22 AM

Look at that BJ Upton run down a line drive into deep center! It's like he's Motorin'! Yeaaahhhh, motorinnnn!
- October 29, 2008 at 8:02 AM

If Jamie Campbell busts out that lyric tonight, it would be fucking hilarious! "Motorin!"

WHEELING - In hopes of extracting oil and wet forms of natural gas, drillers now have more rigs working in Ohio's Utica Shale than in West Virginia's Marcellus Shale.
Ohio Oil and Gas Association Executive Vice President Tom Stewart said the 32 rigs now working in his state is a fair number, but he knows there will need to be more to fully develop the Utica.
"This is going to take a lot more than 32 rigs," he said. "I remain very optimistic the number will go up."
Oilfield services company Baker Hughes Inc. regularly issues a report listing the number of rigs operating in each state. The number in West Virginia is now 23, the same as it was at this time last year. However, Ohio has seen an increase from the 19 working there in June 2012.
"Ohio is making a big move," said Corky DeMarco, executive director of the West Virginia Oil and Natural Gas Association. "If you look at it, I'd bet most of those rigs came out of Pennsylvania."
Pennsylvania has seen the number of rigs working there decline from 85 at this time last year to just 58 this year.
Generally, throughout the Marcellus and Utica shale formations, the farther east one drills for gas, the more likely the gas is to be of the dry type. The methane-dominated dry gas does not require much processing, so it is much more ready to be sent to market and used by energy companies such as Columbia Gas and Mountaineer Gas.
As drillers move their operations toward the west, they are more likely to find the liquids-rich wet gas - which, in addition to the dry methane gas, contains valuable ethane, propane and butane. West Virginia has some pockets of wet gas, particularly in Ohio and Marshall counties.
Chesapeake Energy information shows that for a typical dry gas well, the company makes an average of $13,000 in revenue per day. This amount can be as high as $38,800 per day for wells that contain liquids.
"Right now, the price of (methane) natural gas is $3.77. If we can get it over $4, I think you'll see more activity in West Virginia," said DeMarco.
Natural gas is typically marketed in 1,000 cubic-foot units, each of which is known as an mcf. The $3.77 per mcf price is sharply lower than in previous years but up from the near $2 per unit seen last year.
"Overall, the market is still strong in West Virginia. Only time will tell," DeMarco said. "If we are able to sell LNG (liquefied natural gas) on the world market, the prices will go higher."
Dominion Resources is working on a project to send LNG from its Cove Point project in Maryland to markets in India and Japan.
In addition to the gases, Ohio has some pockets of valuable crude oil in its Utica formation, but Stewart said technological advances would help turn the state into an oil play.
"It may require some advancements in well stimulation," he said regarding fracking operations. "I remain optimistic that, over the long-term, both large companies and small producers will have plenty of incentive to work in Ohio."

Aus 159 Designs von 57 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
The leading company for Newsroom Computer Systems is looking for a new, fresh, innovative, modern and unique logo. The Logo should be remarkable and unique like the logo from apple or the stripes from adidas.
The name of the company is "Annova"
Not required
Desired Color Scheme:

The leading company for Newsroom Computer Systems is looking for a new, fresh, innovative, modern and unique logo.
Annova is the leading software development company for the newsroom computer software.
The logo will be used at Annova-Systems.com but the "Annova†should stand alone and the "Systems†should be able to completely secondary. The graphics could include the name "Annova†or only a unique symbol which could be related to the NCS (newsroom computer system). We think about a logo which is on one hand side absolutely simple to remember and on the other hand a symbol for high performance, power, innovation and flexibility. The name/logo could be multicoloured or black and white only. We'll decide afterwards the best choice for us.
At this point, it is up to you to include graphical components for NCS modules inside or leave them out. In the end it should be a logo which needs to have an absolutely serious style for a high performance broadcast market.
The name "Annova†is a mix of "ann†and "novaâ€. You can additionally try to make this in any way visible or discard this information.

The movie will cover SG-1's attempt to recover the "Ark of Truth"
The "Ark of Truth" is a piece of Alteran technology developed before the Ancients
left for the Milky Way. In an attempt to prevent the Ori and their followers rising
to power, a device was created that could essentially "brainwash" individuals, for
instance Priors, into believing whatever "truth" was programmed into the device.
The Ancients' non-interference policy and belief in free will resulted in the device
never being used. Even though the promise of Ascension promised by Origin is a lie,
the freedom to believe was something the Alterans ultimately decided they did not have
the right to restrict. SG-1 likewise faces the moral and ethical issues raised by the
use of the device.

Hey Guys!
I have an old account on here but I will really only be using this one. I hate getting warnings about putting incorrect material on here, but I haven't used wikia as an account for long and it's annoying because you can't argue your case about getting material and facts from a decent source (I can't spell!) like an interview with JK. Anyway, I hope people get the most from my update and I'll post soon!
ZRSFizzyBongs (talk) 16:56, September 16, 2012 (UTC)ZRSFizzyBongs
Hey, it's nice to see you (well, read what you've written, but anyways..) and congratulations on your new page; it was much better than my first attempt to make one. Anyways, yeah, it's quite fun putting the blocks on there, and hopefully your profile will be just as interesting as the rest of ours soon enough. I saw what you posted on your talk page about an old account - did you mean ZRSFizzyBongs or ZRSFizzyBongs? Or was this another one :P? And by the way, I saw on your page that you had trouble referencing the facts you add to pages; for the books, films, or video games you can just make a link to the page (by putting the two brackets facing right, then the title, then two facing left, so that it ends up like Penguin) and, if it's the books, the chapter number and name. Hunnie Bunn (talk) 20:01, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
I just saw your post on the "Cleanup" blog... I don't know of any schools where you have to learn seven languages. Here in Ontario we only have to learn two, English and French. By the way, if ever you have need of a nerd to fix your spelling and grammar or to help with computer stuff, call upon Sir Cadogan. Hunnie Bunn (talk) 20:05, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
Well, seeing how most of them are spent causing trouble, they're about equal. What are your favourite subjects? Oh, and by the way, if you click the signature button (as you did before) you don't need to write your name again because it's already posted there. Hunnie Bunn (talk) 20:18, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
Wow... does your school offer all that? You're lucky... and no, your life will be sad the day you spend more time on this site and facebook than anywhere else (which is, believe or no, what happened to me). Hunnie Bunn (talk) 20:37, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
Hi! In regards to your recent edits, though I can tell the spirit of them is constructive, you are making several errors in regards to how we normally do things. Thoroughly reading over our policies would probably do you some good, especially if, as you say, you do not wish to receive many messages of similar content as this one. In particular, the in-universe POV, image policy, and layout guide may be good places to start. No one is perfect, particularly at first, so this isn't meant to be a warning or anything, just a suggestion. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 20:47, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, well, my school actually got into the newspaper back in 2007 for being the worst in the province. And do you go to high school, or little school, just wondering? Also, if I took the bus I could probably do it, since I'm still too young for coffee, but does that make me a good student? Hunnie Bunn (talk) 21:18, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
You seem to live quite an interesting life; however, if you don't get drunk (or so, only thrice a year) why do you need a hangover cure? Hunnie Bunn (talk) 21:33, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
"made of layers of sponge cake dipped in brandy or liquor" (from the article regarding tiramisu on wikipedia.org) might be a bit of a hint. Hunnie Bunn (talk) 22:35, September 16, 2012 (UTC)

Character Box
I see you've basically stolen my user box and added some more things but kept the wands and occupations. Can you not do that and try to make up your own? Rainbow Shifter (Owl Me) 17:15, September 17, 2012 (UTC)
Oh and you stole the user box that I created myself along with the wand (except you changed 16 inches to 15). Rainbow Shifter (Owl Me) 17:19, September 17, 2012 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but I simply don't think such articles are necessary, so I'm afraid I can't help you in rewriting them. Nor do I even agree that there is a particular hair colour common among pure-bloods. Yes, the Malfoys have blonde hair, but the Blacks have black hair, the Weasleys have red hair, and many brown haired pure-bloods are seen as well. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 17:44, September 17, 2012 (UTC)
You can alter your signature in Special:Preferences. This page discusses the process in detail, but I think it's pretty simple to figure out, personally.
As far as categories go, creating one is as simple as merely adding a page to your new category as though it already exists. This will create the category page automagically, though you can (and should) navigate to it and give it a brief description. Just a single sentence is normally sufficient. Note that, unless it's a logical continuation of the existing category tree (to use your example, a category for Hermione Granger's possessions, if it didn't already exist, would fall under this, as there are other categories for characters personal possessions already), you should discuss the creation of a new category with the community first, or you might risk having your work reverted/deleted. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 19:26, September 26, 2012 (UTC)
Userpage edits
Hi there! While you've been doing some good work, I noticed that you've also been making a large number of edits to your userpage. Per our editing policy, your userpage is not your primary contribution to the wiki, and your edits of it should be no more than 15% of your total edits. From a rough scan of your contributions, I would estimate that you are currently at around 25%. You may want to cut back, or else it is possible an admin may block your userpage from editing. If you have a lot of things you want to change at once, consider having them ready and make all of the changes in one go, rather than repeatedly editing it. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:33, September 26, 2012 (UTC)
- If you need a place to experiment, then you can always use the sandbox. It's set up exactly for that purpose and anyone is welcome to mess with it as much as they need to. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:49, September 26, 2012 (UTC)
Occlumens, Legilimens, Mediwitch`
All three of these articles that you created are nothing more than copies of other articles with minor changes. There is a reason that those articles didn't already exist - everything you are posting is already covered in the articles that you copied them from. There is no need for these separate articles and I am sure that once the admins see what is happening, they will be deleted or redirected. At this point, I am going to ask that you stop creating new articles until you have a better handle on what is and isn't article-worthy, and definitely stop making pages if the pages you are making are just carbon copies of material we already have with only minor changes. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:26, September 27, 2012 (UTC)
Your new user page
Hi, ZRSFizzyBongs! I see you like my user page. O. k., I have no problem with it. But are you really "German"? I put a userbox on it which says: "This user is from Germany" - trap snapped shut :-))) ! But I see that you have changed already to British user.
But please, change my special editcount to your name and change my signature to yours, also the user box:
"This user has been on the Harry Potter Wiki for 3 years and 27 days"
does not show your time. That's already my time. But it's nice to know that you like my user page.
Harry granger Talk contribs 21:17, October 4, 2012 (UTC)
- No problem. I'm not angry. It's a compliment that you like my user page and it is easy to overlook things. When I can help you with your user page feel free to ask. Harry granger Talk contribs 21:36, October 4, 2012 (UTC)
- I had a look on your user page. I have nothing changed but I pretended to edit and looked in the source mode. There is a very very great amount of code at that place with the
 thing. Perhaps you should delete this code, do NOT save, use the Preview and have a look how it looks like without the code. When it's that what you wanted you can save. Only a suggestion. Harry granger Talk contribs 21:52, October 4, 2012 (UTC)
- O. k., try to surprise me. I'm curious. Here it's late, too. So I must go to bed, too. Until tomorrow, perhaps. Harry granger Talk contribs 22:11, October 4, 2012 (UTC)
- Hey, great! And I got rid of the
 thing. It is hidden in the code. You only must delete this
 then it works. Great Gryffindor scarf. Thank you! Harry granger Talk contribs 22:35, October 4, 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the Auror scarf. That's great. I deleted some codes and your message. Now it looks good. Perhaps you want to have a look?
Harry granger Talk contribs 08:42, October 5, 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, I found a new trap for you. I have a userbox which tells my age. Are you really 51 years and so on old? :P Beside the above mentionend and the only shortened signature. You can change my dates to your dates and my user name to your user name then you can use boxes and signature and they show the right dates and names. Could that be an option for you? Harry granger Talk contribs 15:19, October 5, 2012 (UTC)
Zabini's wand
Could you please identify where you found the image you recently uploaded that is supposedly Blaise Zabini's wand? If you're not comfortable adding the relevant information to the file page (though this is something you really should learn how to do, please), at the very least please reply to this message. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 16:39, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
I do believe you were asking for this on Seth's talk page? Hope I helped. Hunniebunn (talk) 16:46, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
No problem, at least you've been trying to stick to the rules. Sorry I keep deleting your edits to pages and marking stuff for deletion, but I'm quite a bit stricter than the admins such as this man or sir here. If you need help with anything else feel free to owl me. Hunniebunn (talk) 16:54, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
Re. Power-cut
Hi, if there exists a scarf mixed of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, that would be great! I like both houses. When not, no problem. But perhaps then a normal Ravenclaw scarf if you have. Harry granger Talk contribs 17:51, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
- I like scarf Nr. 2 and Nr. 8 but I can't see where the codes of the one scarf ends and the codes of the next scarf begin. Perhaps you can delete what's not needed and can edit the other codes? I would appreciate. Harry granger Talk contribs 18:13, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, I saw your changes. Great, I corrected a code that was too much by one scarf. Now they look wonderful. Thank you. Harry granger Talk contribs 18:37, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, I saw your new Ravenclaw scarf. Thank you. After deleting the unnecessary codes it looks great. And I saw the changes on your user page. You get very quick older, first 13 years, now 15 years and then the userbox with your ??? age 51 years ... ? Great, you're a wonder of the nature!!! :-))))

Hi, Fizzy! I hope you don't mind this short form. But tell me why do you always delete the name of some articles in the infobox? The name belongs to the infobox or you always get these signs: {{{ }}} like in the infobox on your user page. Please don't delete the name. Thank you. Harry granger Talk contribs 20:16, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
- From past experience, this problem seems to be symptomatic of the use of the visual editor. I would recommend not using this and instead editing only in source mode. ProfessorTofty (talk) 20:51, October 6, 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, I saw ProfessorTofty's post. And the scarves: I am curious. Thanks. Harry granger Talk contribs 17:50, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
Your user page
I want to make a suggestion: You have on your user page these templates / userboxes:
- User age 2|year=1961|month=3|day=3 in template brackets {{ }}.
Change it to: User age 2|year=1997|month=5|day=29, then it fits with your dates.
- User HPWikian For|year=2009|month=9|day=7 in template brackets {{ }}.
Change it to: User HPWikian For|year=2012|month=9|day=16
- My signature = Template:Hg
You can open it to see the codes, change the codes to your name and make a new template page like Template:ZRSFizzyBongs/sig. You can also change colours. Or if you want I can do it for you.
Harry granger Talk contribs 19:19, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
I would say: You're eager to knowledge not perv. And from older people you can better learn things. O. k., homework is not a lovely thing. And masquerade your real dates is a good security against bad people in the internet. But which truth don't you like? And do you really mean 2 a. m.? When I understand that right that's midnight, or have I misunderstood? Harry granger Talk contribs 22:42, October 7, 2012 (UTC)
Re. Last message
It sounds as though you had made in your life so far no good experiences. If that's true, I'm very sorry for you. Being an outsider I know myself and I know that it hurts. In any case I wish you that your future runs better than before. Harry granger Talk contribs 08:28, October 8, 2012 (UTC)

- For the little boxes on the side, like "This user is Muggle-born" and stuff, you just do {{User ________}} with the blank being replaced by whatever - a box will pop up with each letter you can type in, and by using the "preview" button you can experiment. If you mean a user infobox, it's the same as character infoboxes (such as {{Slytherin individual infobox}} of {{Ministry of Magic individual infobox}}. --Hunniebunn (talk) 19:27, October 28, 2012 (UTC)
- I must add to Hunnie Bunn's explanation that you must give the name with " Template:User ________ ". The brackets do not work when creating the box. They work when you put the user box on your page.

Okay then. Here is the code: Hunniebunn Talk. I type it in and then it puts in everything the way I want it; the problem is that it won't link to my page or talkpage, which is an aggravation to other users.

If an established editor puts red links into a newly created or expanded article, it probably means they intend to create those pages shortly. So removing them is rather counterproductive. But I do appreciate the intent behind it, and red links from older articles should definitely be removed or pointed to the right target if the page shouldn't be made. So this isn't really a warning or anything, just a little message to key you in on the way some people, such as myself, edit. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 00:14, November 16, 2012 (UTC)
You have these signs in your infobox: {{{ }}}. That's because you have not given your name in the infobox. Is that wanted or can I help? Harry granger Talk contribs 21:30, November 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, I did not write enough. I meant the first userbox on your own user page. There is missing that:
If you add this, these signs {{{ }}} vanish. Harry granger Talk contribs 21:42, November 18, 2012 (UTC)
- No problem. Glad to help. Harry granger Talk contribs 21:54, November 18, 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Fizzy! I recognized that it would not work but I had the ambition to get it work. So I looked into the whole codes of your infobox and saw there were some mistakes. As I'm not allowed to edit your user page I put the whole corrected infobox here onto your talk page. You can copy and paste it if you want. O. k., here it is:
You must only go into the source mode then you can copy the whole infobox. Only a suggestion. Harry granger Talk contribs 22:45, November 18, 2012 (UTC)
Hello ZRSFizzyBongs. I've brought an issue to the community, which can be viewed here, and I wondered if you would mind providing your opinion on the matter (it is understood if you wish to remain silent, as in my country that is a right). --Hunniebunn (talk) 21:46, November 19, 2012 (UTC)
- No problem about the link, and as can be viewed on said page there was indeed three votes. It wasn't particularly the outcome I wanted, but it was an outcome all the same, and most of the community agrees on it (myself included, although grudgingly) --This is an automatically sent message.

I don't really care if it gets deleted (contrarily, it's so horrible that I wouldn't have blamed you for wanting it gone), and certainly wasn't angry; I just figured the community wanted it to stay. I just got back on due to internet problems, and will only start really going back on come Friday - this is just a short break from the monotone of no homework or internet. --Happy Christmas!

- Notability is not the same as quality. My Immortal was determined to be notable because it has gained significant attention throughout a large segment of the Harry Potter. Remember, when editing the Harry Potter Wiki, we maintain a neutral point of view. And one way we do that is not using value judgments in regards to perceived quality to determine what does and doesn't get an article. Of course, this in an of itself does not mean that fan reaction isn't worth noting in the article, which is why the article itself mentions that it is widely regarded poorly for a number of reasons.

Hey, I was wondering if you could help me out on putting things on my user page and such. I'm just a tad bit confused on how to do so. Please and thanks :)

RE:Qualities being deleted
When I understand you correctly these deleted traits come directly from JKR? Then it is correct to mention them, but an edit war is not a good idea. Perhaps it would be better to contact an admin for this, ProfessorTofty or Seth Cooper. Personally I think traits which come from JKR are canon. Harry granger Talk contribs 16:45, December 30, 2012 (UTC)
- A while back I kept trying to add them back after another user deleted them, but could not find a source, as I was relying on yours... just wondering where you got the traits from? --Hunnie Bunn (Owl me!) 00:33, January 24, 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your edit to Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans. However, "Sweets" is a subcat of "Foods" already and we are trying to avoid redundant categories, so please do not add categories if the existing category on the page is a subcat of what you are trying to add.

Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner weren't helping to quell the rumors that they're romantically linked when they shared a long embrace on Friday following the country cutie's concert.
In video posted on YouTube, Lautner is seen at Swift's concert in Chicago on Friday night sitting in the front row transfixed on the singer while she performs her single, "Fifteen."
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Country Cutie Taylor Swift
Following the show, Swift greets a few lucky fans with hugs, including Lautner – whose hug seemed to last longer than anyone else in the front row — and also earned rousing applause from the crowd.
Swift and Lautner have said they are just friends, but the country singer hasn't been shy about revealing where Twi-hard allegiances lie – she's firmly on Team Jacob.

"Well, see, I don't know Rob Pattinson, so I would just by default, I'd be on Team Tay," she said last month in an interview on Z-100 about her "Valentine's Day" costar. "I love him. He's so cute!"
And when asked what it was like to kiss Taylor in their upcoming romance movie, she told MTV, "It was life-changing!"

The DDP400 perforated cover AC/DC power supplies are well suited for challenging system designs where low profile, low power dissipation is desired with minimal air movement. Its low profile is applicable for industry standard 1U equipment designs. Rated for 250 W with free-air convection and 400 W with forced air, this power supply includes an integral 12V fan output, eliminating the need for an additional fan supply. The power supply can be disabled with a logic signal and dissipates less than 0.5W in stand-by mode allowing for system level Energy Star compliance.
With typical efficiencies of 94% and efficiency load profiles that exceed 80 Plus Platinum requirements, the DDP400 is the most efficient power supply in its class.

There seems to be a sentiment on the left side of the political spectrum that support of one's country in the way of patriotism is not warranted. On the contrary we should I guess be embarrassed by our country's actions in the past. I do believe our country has made some bad decisions over the years. There is no doubt about that. And I am even ashamed by some of our actions: treatment of the American Indians, slavery, detainment of Japanese Americans during World War II. But does there not still remain many things about this nation that makes one swell with pride? When I visited the French memorial to the American soldier in Normandy many years ago I was awestruck. The nearly 10,000 crosses have a visual impact I will never forget. Included there is the son of former President Teddy Roosevelt. The French are grateful for the contribution our country made to freeing Europe from the clutches of nazism. Or when I watched the first man in history to set foot on the moon, an American. No other nation in the world has come close to the U.S. outpouring of money and resources to aid victims of natural disasters throughout the world. When we beat the Russians in hockey at the 1980 Winter Olympics as a huge underdog. These are all proud moments for me.
The point I'm making is that patriotism does indeed still have it's place in the mindset of all Americans. An American flag hangs from the ceiling of my workshop. That flag represents to me all that is right with America. I am proud to be a citizen of this nation despite it's shortcomings. So what would be a good argument to take that flag down and remove that pride that resides in my heart? We have made mistakes and I can only hope that you, the younger generations, can learn from those mistakes and make our country a place that you can also feel patriotic towards.

"phony justification for most of the manifestly unjustified and immoral wars"
This is opinion and not evidence-in-fact. Just because you personally do not agree does not immediately apply to everybody. If you are a self-hating American then you can wallow in that as much as you displease.
"Americans are taught to "LOVE" their country and their imaginary god more than themselves or their families."
The collective over the individual is the very point of patriotism. It means that you should be willing to sacrifice yourself for your country and not be staunchly selfish individualistic.
"We all know: it's "God, country, family," in that order, right?"
For me it's "For the King and Fatherland!", ref. my previous point.
"If we are expected to "love" our country, then why can't we have sex with it?"
Love≠sex. Also, I think many Americans are doing a great job fucking over their country these days, ref. your post...
[BS argument, BS argument, etc...]
"For Americans, our "exceptional" country comes first"
Here I agree. I find this to be quite over-the-top.
"the people are expected to voluntarily be the willing pawns the country deploys in its geopolitical chess game."
That tends to come with the territory of, you know, a democracy. Unfortunately it entails a lot of a majority dictatorship.
"I'm sorry, but my life and that of my family are more important to me"
So selfish needs over country? Bravo sir, you are the embodiment of the narcissistic left.
"I wonder what the millions of young soldiers might have contributed towards the betterment of their fellow Americans had their shortened lives not been spent in needless, patriotic fervor fighting unnecessary wars."
If I recall correctly, for this statement to be true you would have to include the civil war deaths as I do not believe America has seen the sum of a million war deaths if excluded. That's actually comparatively very low.
"They were sacrifices by men, not the state apparatus called "America.""
Quite incorrect. There are a few - very few - crosses around Spain. Those are for men. WW2 was the state apparatus of America in action and not a volunteer fighting force.
"Any money sent by the American government to foreign lands comes with political strings attached, however subtle those strings might be."
String: As close to a western style democracy as the US can realistically expect. What an awful string..
"This post will probably get me on the government's "no-fly" list."
I seriously doubt your government has much interest in your rantings and ravings, whatever importance you personally attribute to them.
Stated beautifully Arcus.
Paranoia much..? :)
I have many more, and much better, reasons I might be on it, yet I seriously doubt a government would waste their time monitoring me. I guess I'm not too exciting to them.
I think this is a case where a little is good, a lot is bad. Unfortunately many people think if a little is good, then more is always better.
Regarding the past, what's done is done. There's no such thing as inherited guilt. Beyond that, every half empty glass is also half full.
Take slavery for example. No doubt the American slavery system pre-Civil War was evil. Unlike slavery in Greece, for example, which typically was an act of charity (kill a vanquished soldier or make him a slave), it was simply designed to use human beings as beasts of burden.
At the same time, most black people today who are descendants of slaves can almost thank their lucky stars for slavery. I realize this is, at least initially, a counterintuitive statement, but consider that, were it not for slavery, their ancestors might have never met. In fact, the odds against the same people meeting in Africa who met in the Old South are astronomical. So, today's American black person would not exist today were it not for slavery, and even if, against the odds, their ancestors had paired up in Africa, where would they be? In Africa where they'd most likely be living in relative ignorance and poverty, not to mention in a situation of far less opportunity.
Anti-Americans often trot out the notion that "America is the only country to have used nuclear weapons on another country." No doubt, this is true, but we were sufficiently horrified by the result that we don't even threaten to use nuclear weapons, something which can't be said of countries like Iran, N. Korea, and Pakistan.
People in many countries feel patriotism. It's true that Americans make a show of being the best. And why not?: Chances are, if someone in some other country wants to go or be somewhere, or wants to change their nationality, there's a better than 50/50 chance that they want to come to American and/or become an American. Unless you want to call them deluded, foolish, or stupid (or insult them in some other way), you have to admit they must have some reason for that.
I think patriotism is harmless if it is of the "love of place" sort but it can sometimes be problematic if it is of the "Deutschland, Deutschland ueber alles" sort (substitute some other country). It comes down to what the "ueber alles" part means. Does it mean "I love the country I live in more than any other" or does it mean "My country must dominate all others"?
Beautiful insight and commentary Unseen. I truly enjoyed it.
This may sound like an odd suggestion, but I recommend reading "Caesar: A Biography" by Christian Meier. If one takes the OP's topic in perspective while reading at least the first several chapters, I feel it sheds light on self discovery even in the modern day concerning attitudes towards one's own political, cultural, and national identity.
While in many ways ancient Roman society is fairly alien to us, there are some ways in which we can draw comparisons to what we experience today to the people of then, in shortcomings, atrocities, living in a superpower society etc. An aspect I find intriguing in their cultural mindset is how much they tended to 'live in the moment' in dealing with events as these became in 'the past', and another how they seemed to have a true sense of unified nationality as an ideal even while they were either opposed to or victims of various characters and events on a political and cultural level. That is, they were very capable in the ability to separate their personal identity as a component of the whole from that which they disliked or even suffered at these levels.
I find that a valuable lesson personally. The humanistic tools and freedoms we possess in this country are undeniably rare if not unique in human history. And to be an individual living in this country where, while we have sobering lessons in the past from which to draw, I am still a part of the whole and have an identity as such 'at this very moment', this makes me proud to be the very fabric of it if not incredibly lucky.
I suppose my point is that the two sides of the OP's contrast are reconcilable, as suggested in his conclusion. The greatness and the shamefulness we can draw from the past as a nation and a society both have born where we are at the present moment whether we wish them to be or not. Accepting this, we as individuals can proudly act patriotically while continuously discerning the ways we have acted in the past. One moment at a time as each moment faces us.
@ Rick
"Out of all of the things you could have chosen to illustrate how wonderful it is to live here, the immigrant example is by far the least convincing."
We have friends in a nearby town who own a Chinese restaurant. They immigrated here several years ago from there motherland country of China. They paid a lot more money to have their parents come here as well. They went through all the necessary legal channels and became citizens of our country. They also are a little disgusted at the illegals living in our area who choose to remain here without citizenship.
The point I am making is that many immigrants come here without taking the southern border as the access point. And they do it legally, a novel approach in this day and time it seems.
@Ed: It's wonderful that your friends are here and that they chose the US. There is no doubt however, that you'll find similar stories in other countries. The US does not have a monopoly on legal immigration.
@ Steve
"Any mentality that separates people is a mentality
that offers no benefit to society in general."
So I can assume you believe that events like the Olympics and other international competitions would be unwarranted as well. Pride of country in sporting events is but one example where people have an opportunity to feel good about where they're from. Humans are a competitive being.
@ Rob
"Also I believe that it is ludicrous that people have pride in a set of imaginary lines anyway."
The actual border of my country is irrelevant. The fact that America has stood for personal liberty and freedom and renounced countries such as China on human rights issues is something that makes me feel good to be an American. So it's not about imaginary lines but beliefs and the idea that we can & should stand up and protest when something is wrong, without fear of persecution.
All the while fucking the poor and persecuting gay people, atheists, non christians, black people, hispanics, all the while going to war with other countries for profit as well for corporate greed, imperialism, the irrational war on drugs, kicking people out because they crossed an imaginary line "illegally," can be sent to jail with only two "witnesses" without any evidence in some cases (happened to me once and I wasn't even in the same city when the supposed crime occurred.) political and police corruption, king Bloomberg, can be detained indefinitely because someone calls you a terrorist and i can keep going on. TEAM AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

I have developed an web application which display top blogs added by the user to that website.
I am displaying data in gridview. i have given pagination to gridview.
Now i want that "if i scroll down the page, then gridview automatically expands.
Ex: Initially it contains 10 records, when i scroll down page at bottom it should show me next 10(Total 20) record, again when i scroll down it should again show me next 10(Total 30) records without refreshing the page.
This is just like facebook, when you scroll down the page it automatically shows you older posts.
If anyone knows how to do this, Please reply...
