This is not only one of the BEST open source programs out there, it is one of the BEST PROGRAMS period! It is so feature rich, so good, so stable, and so intuitive, in the two-plus years we've been using it, I haven't even had to use support once, and that includes not having to visit a support forum! Very well done LiveZilla. Very well done.
Steve Noe
I cannot think of a better live support tool. Its easy to use, it has all the features required to keep both a small helpdesk team and a large one. Overall it's great!
Horia Simon
Incredible software. Easy to install and configure. Give you tons of information about what is happening on your website(s). I've tested and used many live help systems in the past and Livezilla is simply the best, without any doubts!
I have to say that LiveZilla has helped us connect with our customers in a new and unique way. The program is easy to use, and has been a catalyst in several remote computer repairs for our customers. The help forum has been very helpful. I upgraded to the professional version in order to brand it fully. If you are looking for a new way to offer superior sales and computer repair support, this is a great way.
Ted Fuller
Best online support system i have ever used. Lots of feature and highly customizable. No need to pay any monthly fee. I just love it.
Bilal Ahmed
Excellant Program, easy setup and install very stable, works great on my linux server and my Win 7 PC. One of the best web tools I have seen in a long time. The contact and chat program is a must and with LiveZilla your customer support is only a click away. I love how I can always monitor who is on my site and with the ability to guide my customers in the right direction, I seldom miss a sale.
WoW! Simply WOW! I was using a different program before, but this one just blows it away! I love all the different features, I like this enough to go premium.

Livezilla is really a fantastic utility which gives great interface to communicate visitors in realtime. It is not only helpful but also an essential program for website owners in present scenario. It helps great to improve website, increase web traffic, high customer satisfaction and much more.....
LiveZilla is a major part of my business success. I consider as important as the Office suite. Our customers prefer in the proportion of 10 to 1, to comunicate with us using the online chat service. LiveZilla is easy to use, stable and can be installed in Apple and Android mobile platforms. Very, very useful for my company!
Marcio Miranda
If I could resume this software in one word would be amazing.
André Argolo
We came for the Live Chats, but stayed for the Ticket System. What an incredible time-saver. I guess your e-mail composer will "influence" other systems a lot, it's superior! Thanks, my team loves it.
Frédéric Dupond, ETIC Paris
LiveZilla has helped my company to engage with our customers in grateful way and to keep a good relationship with all my customers. As CEO of my company I have to admit that LiveZilla team put hard work every day to keep this piece of talent software top of the edge. If you are looking for good live chat software, do not look no more and try out LiveZilla today. I highly recommend it!
Maikel Gongora
Livezilla is awesome, i used it on my university for testing purpose and its working really well. I will purchase its premium components for sure.
When a client came to me with the need to both offer better support to his customers and better engage web visitors the search was on for something that would fit the bill at a cost managable for a small business - LiveZilla came through on all counts and shocked me as we continued to drill deeper and find more and more features. It is very impressive software and has been incredibly stable - silently working away without a single issue for several months now - and easy enough to operate that the client has several employees now trained to operate it.
Brandon McGregor
The Best live support scripts i ever seen. I used many scripts from other websites for providing live support ability to my site, but LiveZilla is the best one. We are going to buy it. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant! Incredible feature set and ease of use, I only wish I'd discovered Livezilla sooner. Great job!
Since nearly two years LiveZilla is the "communication partner" on the website of "The Bushtops Camp Collection" by Orion Hotels Ltd owning Mara Bushtops Safari Camp in Kenya and the Serengeti Bushtops Safari Camp in Tanzania. Due to the fact of creating more personal interaction with our future customers we are able to deliver five star service quality even on our website. And we don't loose customers due to unanswered questions anymore. Thank you!
Kurt Haas
I have searched the entire web and used quite a few other solutions but none come even close to the ease, versatility and features of Livezilla! Regardless of cost, I havent't found any other to beat it!
ian melville
An efficient chat application that has a user friendly GUI, nicely designed, with a not too complicated appearance. Allows users to get things done with ease.
Anthony Acevedo
After trying some other alternative online support tools one day we met with Livezilla. With powerful and easy intallation/setup procedure and powerful and easy to use windows desktop application we set it up almost instantly and integrate it to our webpage. Our customers definately love it. Our support phone call rates dropped seriously. Now after almost a year we will never ever think about using another online support application. Thanks a lot Livezilla for this powerful tool.
Sukru Emre Erim
I have been looking for something like this for a long time. Livezilla is user friendly, easy to setup and it's very convenient. I would recommend every business with online presence to make use of it.

Michael Quale
I have been using LiveZilla for my webhosting business for a while now, and our customers are insanely pleased that besides the stable services, and cheap pricing, we are able to offer super fast support via IM and the live chat provided by LiveZilla.

Bijan Sabbagh
Brilliant support tool. Very easy to install, to implement and maintain. We cannot live without LiveZilla. Its essential for us.
I was so pleased to find such a useful application - just what I needed. It installed easily - worked no trouble 'straight out of the box' and is very configurable. Gives me direct access to my visitors which is often lots better than continually sending emails back and forth.
Excellent product - customers appreciate that they can communicate directly with me when they visit my website. Product is updated in a timely fashion along with any bug fixes. Keep up the great work, developers!
Your software is really amazing, very useful for my company, stable, customizable, good performance, easy to use. Thanks!

We have been using LiveZilla on our websites to offer live chat for sales and support. Overall, I really like this live chat software; it is a very stable, feature packed piece of software. I would definitely rate it 10/10.
M. Vaughan
This is a fantastic live support software, I sell web hosting and some of my clients are using it also. I wan't rate this high enough and i've tried many other live support software in the past, but it doesn't compair anything to your software. Well done Live Zilla!
Allen Mcmillan
Livezilla is unbelievably good. I searched for an app like this for years, meaning easy to install myself, integrated with my wordpress site, text AND video chat and I can even integreate it with my payment gateway and customize images! There's only one way to describe Livezilla. WOW!
We love this product and our staff and customers find it an invaluable tool.
Kevin Kwasnik
I have no complaints about Livezilla. It has done wonders for my website trust and my clients love it as well. The ability to add staff who can work from home through their own pc and me, as the administrator to be connected and monitor all activity is a powerful feature. It is the best chat program I have seen and I will be a lifetime user. Thank you for a great service!

Easy install and simple setup. THANKS LIVEZILLA!

This is the best live chat software I have ever used, and I will continue to use it. This has helped me out loads and helps my clients/customers get the best experience with our team. Thanks Livezilla!
Ryan Plant
LiveZilla is an excellent piece of software! The online chat works really well and looks good, too. It also has lots of other added benefits; allowing us to see how many visitors we have on our site and what the customer searched for to find us has been a really helpful tool. LiveZilla is the best online chat software that I have seen and I would recommend it to anyone.
Sharon Rees
LiveZilla is one of the best online chat systems for websites you can use. Mainly because when I am on the computer, it shows me online, and I don't have to worry about logging in everytime for a web-based chat system. The other great feature, and another reason why I love LiveZilla is that it tells you who is visiting your site in real-time, which is a great analytics tool. And because of it, I have had people chat with me which for me, was a real financial gain. I can't beleive I did not use it years ago.
Jack Cola
This system is awesome, and fairly easy to setup. I appreciate all the hard work the programmers and others have provided to make this project a success. We are a small ISP and we needed a good solution we didn't have to build ourselves. Thank you.
Nicholas Maietta
LiveZilla has been one of the most helpful tools for my business. I would recommend Livezilla to anyone who wants to be ahead of their competition in regards to being able to prove top notch customer service.

It increased sales & customer satisfaction. I am able to support to my clients on right time and it leads to greater sales. From one window I am able to support for multiple products and multiple sites with greater control.
It's amazingly useful. We use it for sales, customer service and much more. It works perfectly, we didn't have any single problem with it.
Mikel Aguirre
Absolutely wonderful program. Has helped increase my sales as customers love the opportunity to talk to a sales representitive. It has also helped me research my best marketing strategys with Livezilla's built in tracking. Would recommend to everybody!
Rowan Lyles
This program installs very easily. Even when using a remote database on an offsite server. Initially, I had a connection problem, but after diagnosing it I discovered the problem was my server and NOT the LiveZilla program. I have recommended LiveZilla to many people who needed a live chat service on their web site. Thanks again, keep up the great work.
Richard Chehovin
Awesome and powerful application. Stable and very complete in terms of features in comparation with other ones.
Esteban Pino Coviello
Having used hosted chat services before and had nothing but problems, as well as significant costs, I was really pleased to get LiveZilla installed on our own server. As well as the clear benefit of no ongoing costs we are in control of our install and won't suddenly be left without live chat if a supplier goes down. Live Chat is crucial to one of our products - customers use it every day and Live Zilla has made it reliable, easy and fun to use.
Simon Mason
Great software. Always works, looks good and makes us look like the pros we are.

LiveZilla allows my team to respond to questions from current and potential clients from any location I am connected to the Internet.

I really like this feature. Talked to several people, and the instant feedback we give our customers is great.
I am a small business, but wanted to offer live support. There are many options out there, but they cost more than a small company can generally afford. Then I came across LiveZilla. It is easy to use, runs flawlessly, and provides me with what I wanted for live chat/support.

Justin Smoak: Smoak was the 11th overall pick in the draft, from the University of South Carolina. I thought this was a great bargain for the Rangers; I loved his bat and had him ranked ahead of all college hitters except Alvarez and Buster Posey before the draft. He got off to a great start at Double-A Frisco, hitting .328/.449/.481 with 39 walks and just 35 strikeouts in 183 at-bats. However, he strained an oblique muscle in June, and while he came back quickly he wasn't the same afterward. The Rangers promoted him aggressively to Triple-A Oklahoma City where he hit .244/.363/.360 in 54 games, continuing to show good plate discipline but lacking power. Overall he hit .290/.410/.443 with 12 homers, 75 walks, and 81 strikeouts in 386 at-bats. I still like Smoak a lot, and suspect that the oblique hampered his performance much of the summer. He retained command of the strike zone even when struggling. However, hopes that he would be ready in 2010 have to be tempered; he'll need more Triple-A time.
Smoak's stats.

Help, I'm Stuck
I sometimes take part in different photo projects. But this time I am stuck. And I only have four days to finish this project. The idea is to take up to six photos and present those with 150 words per photo. It is supposed to be a conversation of sorts, showing that there's two sides to every story. It sounded easy when I read the announcement, but that was one month ago and I don't have a clue what I should do. If you have an idea, let me know. Could be anything. As for today's photo. I made these cinnamon buns earlier in the week, and yes, they are tasty.

Steffe .... I see a recurring theme in your flickr photos that would meet this project's theme perfectly: the contrasts between Sweden's history and present day. You will show an old farm, telling about its previous occupants, their work, etc. And then you'll show photos of new building and construction. Both sides have advantages and disadvantages. You could have the final photo be This Old Tree, and talk about the discussion of building a racing track there.

Take six photos... text? write what you wish was there in its place. I'd do that. Get it? Both sides.

I think Brenda had a great idea! I would have a hard time with that because I am a person of few words. I wish I could write interesting things but can never think of what to say.
The picture makes me hungry.

Steffe, you often show us two sides to a story with your winter/summer shots.
My suggestion to you, is that you start three weeks ago.

I'm not sure what to tell you about your project... but those rolls look divine!

That bun looks great Steffe. Another of your many talents!

- Kitty said...
hm..I would start with one random photo and then look for something else. I'd let the first photo and what you're drawn to create the theme and idea for the second photo.
From your recent shots, I'd say...Spring (birth, new insects, etc.) and decay (the shopping mall). There would be nature v. manmade in there, too.

On a photo walk with my friend Jim I had an idea and took a few photos for the project, and I think they will work, thanks for your suggestions.

Missing Cliopatria
Ralph Luker has posted the sad news on Cliopatria that after over eight years of keeping the history community up to date on scholarship and news in the field, this essential blog is closing up shop. Especially in the early days of the Legal History Blog 5 1/2 years ago, Cliopatria was an essential source that I visited every morning. Best wishes to Ralph and fellow bloggers. It just won't be the same without you!

Some stocks just keep getting killed, and it's gut-wrenching to watch. The worst? The oil and gas limited trusts and the master limited partnerships.
As usual, when it comes to Washington, people are just presuming the worst. They are betting that, if the government can suddenly turn its attention to municipal bond limitations, cutting back the exemption on the tax-free interest, then they can go after the MLPs, too, perhaps making them pay corporate taxes.
So these stocks just get hit in waves, punctuated by their insatiable demand for capital and the multitudinous secondaries to slake that demand.
That's why I am thinking that no one should buy these for now except on secondaries because the companies are probably as jittery as the market is. The secondaries still work for the good ones, like MarkWest Energy Partners (MWE), although they are abject failures for the bad ones, like the one the Action Alerts PLUS charitable trust is in, Energy Transfer Partners (ETP).
MarkWest bounced nicely after the pricing of its last secondary at $46.5, a great opportunity. Similarly I think that Kinder Morgan Energy Partners' (KMP) secondary at $78.60 is one that worked well and shows you how it is worth waiting for even the best of breed.
It does seem that every time we have tax uncertainty in Washington, we get these kinds of selloffs. It's the price you have to pay to own them. So only buy them on a discount. Otherwise, just take a pass.

There is something about an iPod dock these days that suggests that it can no longer be just about the speaker. There has to be some design element added in order to make it stand out from the crowd, whether that be a different shape or an innovative layout, one thing it must not be is square or boxy.
In steps the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro, an elliptical shaped iPod speaker dock that features two forward facing speakers and subwoofer that fires down onto the desk, table, or picnic rug that you've plonked it on.
Extending on this elliptical theme further, the speaker features a large, but solid metal handle that encloses the design, but also actually acts as a handle so you can carry it around. Basically it's like a giant funky handbag that Mrs Pocket-lint would like to own, and you know that would cost a bomb. Alternatively, perhaps it is an embodiment of the Wembley arch.
That expensive look actually feels expensive too, which is a good thing, and there is a decent weight to the whole unit that will make you feel that it's worth the £250 you've paid for it. Unfortunately the same can't be said for the rather basic remote control that comes in the box.
Beneath the arch are the control buttons - all three of them - and the all important docking station. To make sure it fits every iPhone/iPod under the sun there is a large screw that can be raised to allow your device to sit in the right place, and we tested it with an iPod touch (1G), an iPhone 3GS and an iPhone 4. All worked perfectly.
As for those three buttons, you'll get a power switch and volume up and down. There are no equaliser buttons and no extra "boom box" features. Harman Kardon is all about creating a natural sound and, therefore, believes that if you want to do something to that sound, the iPhone and its plethora of equaliser settings are just as good.
Around the back you get power in - an adapter is included in the box - a USB socket for connecting to a computer, a TV out and an AUX in. There is also a massive battery compartment that will reveal that you've got to feed the Go + Play Micro with eight (yes eight) C cell batteries. Those that decide to do so will free themselves from the shackles and chains of mains power. That means the garden, the park, camping - pretty much anywhere.
Battery life as you can imagine isn't long and depending on a number of factors, like the type of music you listen to (bassy tracks are a real battery drainer), you'll get around 12 hours of music before you've got to resupply it with batteries.
So that's the looks, what of the sound? Well we can happily report that the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro sounds really nice. It's a very natural sound and nowhere near as bassy as the Bowers and Wilkins Zeppelin.
The sub that fires downwards will vary in performance depending on what you place it on, but it also does a good job in creating a decent sound that will please most. What we mean by a natural sound is that it tries to do its best to replicate the original track that you are playing on your iPod, rather than enhance it with extra bass or treble.
If your original track sounds poor then it will sound poor here too. As for sheer noise performance, the Go + Play Micro is certainly loud enough to fill a lounge, garden party and certainly picnic - you will get complaints if you crank it up.
We like the Harman Kardon Go + Play Micro iPod speaker dock for its simplicity and its kooky design. While that design is something that is likely to polarise fans - you'll either love it or think it's ugly - we personally think it really has enough design panache to carry it off.
Combine that with a very good sound and this is one player we would recommend.

This a tougher question than it sounds. The simple answer is: The National Fire Protection Association Standard 211 says, "Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary." This is the national safety standard and is the correct way to approach the problem. It takes into account the fact that even if you don't use your Chimney Damper Installation
much, animals may build nests in the flue or there may be other types of deterioration that could make the chimney unsafe to use.
The Chimney Safety Institute of America recommends that open masonry fireplaces should be swept at 1/8″ of sooty buildup, and sooner if there is any glaze present in the system. This is considered to be enough fuel buildup to cause a chimney fire capable of damaging the chimney or spreading to the home. Factory-built fireplaces should be swept when any appreciable buildup occurs. The logic is that the deposit is quite acidic and can shorten the life of the fireplace. Chimney Damper Installation Osseo MN

Diagnose Your Chimney's Leaking ProblemThe chimney is an important part of your home structure that keeps your home warm in extreme cold weather. In most cases wood and gas build fire in chimney. Proper cleaning is essential for smooth working. Yearly inspection helps to achieve this aim. Mason and fireplace professionals carryout some common chimney repairs occasionally that conserve its functionality and enable it to perform major functions like: • Removal of harmful byproducts produced during burning of fuel • Removal of excessive heat from combustible items near fire What are Common Chimney Repairs? It is difficult to find out any kind of problems or damages associated with chimneys. That's why people always prefer to take help from professional handyman to detect problems and proper chimney repair. Following are some of the important components of chimney that can be repaired any time to restore its function. • Chimney Caps • Mortar Crown Repair • Firebox re pointing and rebuilding • Damper repair • Flue repair • Storm Collar • Liner Gap Repair • Chimney Relining Chimney Caps Chimney must have suitable cap, installing wrong cap over chimney can cause disastrous fire. Cap is mounted to restrict water, animals and debris to get enter in chimney that finally leads to blockage of unit and create extremely hazardous condition. Water can destroy liner and mortar joints between liner sections. Spark arrestors are also fixed on cap to prevent falling of dangerous sparks on your roof and prevent fire. Mortar Crown Repair It is the top part made up of concrete that don't let water to enter in flue. If you found cracks immediately get them repair because water can enter via cracks that also destroys other parts like ceilings, walls and attics along with chimney. Firebox Re pointing and Re building This is made up of bricks use to build fire. Loose bricks are necessary to repair to avoid accidents. Damper repair Damper keeps the flue close when fireplace is not in use. It stops heat flow out from chimney. It should also repair in case of any defect. Flue repair It is an internal part that works like a canal to blowout smoke and other toxic gases produced in fireplace. It may get cracked and blocked with debris and creosote (oil released upon burning of wood). It must be removed regularly to avoid dangerous fire accidents. Moreover, cracks should be sealed immediately for safety purpose. Storm Collar It is the small piece of metal that protect chase cover. Improper installation let water to enter in chase that travels down along the length of unit. Water destroys the whole unit but this can be easily avoided by proper maintenance. Liner Gap Repair Improper construction, earth quake and normal wear and tear can cause gaps between flue tiles. Chimneys without caps always face this problem. These gaps leads improper functioning of chimney and results in accumulation of combustion product. Initially liner gaps can only repair by relining and rebuilding of the whole unit. But now days it can efficiently resolved with fire guard. Chimney Relining Chimney is made up of concrete or terra cotta. Cracks are the major problem for chimneys and they must be repaired before using fireplace. You can use various options to tackle with the problem. It mainly depends on the condition of unit. Insulating whole unit with stainless steel provide effective solution to this problem. Further, you can also install larger steel liner that keep fireplace open. Technically it is difficult to install such big liner.
Chimney Repair - The 5 Most Common Chimney Issues and How to Fix ThemThere is nothing quite as comforting as a roaring fire on a cold winter day to warm your heart and your home. A fireplace is something your entire family can enjoy. But you need to make sure chimney repair and maintenance is done correctly in order to ensure your families safety. The Importance of Chimney Repair A chimney is designed to draw the smoke and gases produced by a fire up and safely out of your home. This is extremely important since some of these gases are dangerous. One of the most dangerous is carbon monoxide which in large enough doses can kill. A second important function of the chimney is to contain the excess heat from a fire until it can be vented to the outside air. Most of your home is combustible. If the chimney does not get this extremely hot air outside without leaks it can easily cause a fire in your home. This is why it is so important for you to make sure that any needed chimney repair is done correctly in order to keep you, your family and your home safe. Here are some important tips to ensure that your fireplace is working correctly and avoid some common chimney repair issues. Creosote Buildup Creosote is an oil that is produced when wood or other solids are set on fire. Over time the creosote can build up on the inside of your chimney. If there is too much buildup it can ignite and cause a fire in your chimney. Blockage Another common chimney repair issue is having a blockage in the flue of your chimney. This can be caused by debris from material dislodging in your chimney or even by animal nests. Blockages, even small ones affect the efficiency of your chimney in getting smoke, gases and heat out of your home. Cracks Or Holes In The Flue Some of the gases from a fire are quite corrosive and over time can damage your chimney flue and create the potential for blockages or even allow dangerous gases to seep into your home. Make sure that your flue gets an annual inspection to ensure that it is working correctly. Brickwork Problems Another problem is caused if the flue starts to leak and erode the masonry and brickwork around the exterior and require extensive chimney repair work. Too much of this can cause major structural damage which will make your chimney repair much more expensive. Chimney Cap and Chimney Crown The chimney cap and crown basically make up the roof of the chimney that surrounds the flue and keeps water and debris from getting into the chimney. If this is cracked or missing pieces it can allow water damage to the inside of the chimney and even damage the ability of the flue to channel gases and heat out of the home. This area also keeps animals, debris and weather out of your flue. Conclusion If you see any of these problems when you inspect your chimney, you need to see that any needed repair is made before the fireplace is used. While you may be able to fill small cracks, you should consult a professional for any larger issue. It is always recommended that you have your chimney cleaned, inspected and any needed chimney repair work done at least once a year to ensure its safe operation. To ensure the safety of your family make sure that you have carbon monoxide detectors in your home. These should be placed on each floor or at a minimum on the floor where your family sleeps. Check them regularly to make sure they are working properly to protect your family from even low levels of carbon monoxide. By taking care of any needed chimney repair as soon as you see it the costs for the repairs will be much less than if you let the problem get larger. Make sure that your chimney is inspected regularly and it will give you years of safe use.

Claudio Sibille-air Table Coffee Table/Dinning Table
At Design Interviews
Interview with Claudio Sibille : Frank Scott: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?. Claudio Sibille : The idea, like most of my work is to show that thre is more than meets the eye in what looks like a simple object. .Frank Scott: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?. Claudio Sibille : This project is the result of my work in M3 where multifunctionality and space saving furniture is the main objective. .Frank Scott: What are your future plans for this award winning design?. Claudio Sibille : Increase its exposure and therefore its chances of selling like expected. .Frank Scott: How long did it take you to design this particular concept?. Claudio Sibille : The idea was already in place when I started with this project. There are a few other designers whho worked in this concept as well, resolved somewhat differently in both operation flow and formal aspect, but still, the idea was already there. It must have taken maybe a week, from the first sketches, through the cad layout and eventually to the final renderings. .Frank Scott: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration?. Claudio Sibille : I did not precisely need to solve this particular problem (the one solved by this design), but I needed to find new ways of solving space issues through furniture design in the most original and practicable way possible. .Frank Scott: Is your design being produced or used by another company, or do you plan to sell or lease the production rights or do you intent to produce your work yourself?. Claudio Sibille : The prototype stage is almost done, and then we plan to mass manufacture this item. .Frank Scott: Who is the target customer for his design?. Claudio Sibille : mostly young people between the ages of 18 and 50 living in small apartments that can easily manipulate light medium sized objects in their daily basis routine. .Frank Scott: How did you come up with the name for this design? What does it mean?. Claudio Sibille : It takes inspiration from the MacBook Air, ssurely like most "air" related product names. .Frank Scott: Which design tools did you use when you were working on this project?. Claudio Sibille : Pencil, paper, autocad, 3d studio and lots of coffee. .

Hypnosis MP3s
Hypnosis MP3s can reprogram your subconscious while you sleep. Most listeners have never heard the end of their CD but they are making positive changes in their lives! If the pre-recorded topics don't fit your needs, I can make you a personalized recording.
About personalized recordings:
"I am really impressed [with my hypnosis CD]! You have done an incredibly brilliant job. After listening to your session about 4 times I have yet to nod off once during meditation!" ~Brother Mark
"I can't thank you enough for the effective recording you've made for me… I am very pleased with the results. I can feel my self confidence increasing, and I can see other positive changes in my personality as well. Thanks again." ~Mayta Lang
Kind comments on a few pre-recorded titles

ALGONQUIN, Ill. - Vern Brancamp is an artist.
Unlike other artists who interpret nature on a canvas or with a camera, nature is his canvas.
His craft is taxidermy. And it's been a lifelong passion for the 70-year-old from Algonquin.
"I got started when I was kid," he said. "My dad was a hunter, and when we'd come back with pheasant, he'd pluck all the feathers and throw them in the trash. It would eat at my insides to see all those beautiful feathers go to waste, so I would pick them out of the trash and pin them out on cardboard.
"It was very satisfying to see them after they dried out into these little feather clusters."
After high school, he went to work for Jewel T as a meat cutter but kept his hobby up in his basement. It became more than a hobby when a local sporting goods store put some of his work up on display.
"Customers would bring stuff in to the store and want me to work on it," he said. "I was a meat cutter by day and a taxidermist by night."
Soon his passion took off, and he decided to pursue taxidermy full time.
"I was getting so much work that my freezers were full, and I couldn't keep up or spend any time with my family," Brancamp said.
He opened Vern's Taxidermy in Algonquin 40 years ago. His freezers still are full, but there are more of them now.
The taxidermy process involves many stages. In the case of a deer, he skins it, takes measurements and orders a Styrofoam mannequin in the pose the customer wants. The hide is then sent to a tanner. After it comes back in a couple of months, it is rehydrated and glued on to the mannequin. The rack is attached, eyes are inserted, along with a few other final touches. Generally, he quotes about a year to have a deer mounted.
Along the way, he's done some pets - which are more work since he has to carve the mannequins himself - and other unique animals. He's mounted everything from someone's pet goldfish to a full-grown giraffe.
"I had to rent a building that had a 18-foot ceiling," he said.
It took him over a month just to craft the body.
"That ended up being a really big job, and I don't think I'd like to do it again," he said.
Brancamp said he knows many people who enjoy the process of taxidermy but most find it hard to make a living doing it.
"I like seeing the finished product, and I like to make other people happy in what I do," he said. "That's my reward. It's not only the money thing. It's the reward that people are happy with what I do, and that makes me happy."

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Summer jobs: The very mention brings up memories of low pay, long hours and sweaty, clueless teenagers who don't really know what they're doing.
Memories like that are still vivid for some of the nation's greatest achievers. Since last August, Reuters has been gathering the first-job stories of successful Americans, including sports legends, business titans and media superstars.
This month, to coincide with the nation's monthly jobs report, we spoke to a few of them about those memorable summer jobs that got them started.
First summer job: Fence builder
"My dad was a fence contractor in Mechanicsville, Virginia, so my first paying gig was building fences. It involved a lot of digging holes, cleaning up construction sites and distributing lumber. It was for $5 an hour, which, at the time, was more than minimum wage."
"It was hard manual labor, and I certainly would rather have been at the pool with my friends rather than driving an hour to some muggy, mosquito-infested area to build a fence around a horse field. But I was getting paid, so I didn't mind."
"My dad was happy to have me working for him. We would just blast the stereo all day, and I would sing along to the radio or some mixtape I made. He would turn to me and say, 'I hope you pursue that, and live your dream. I would rather you do that, than this.'"
"That stuck with me, big time. That could have been my future, and I could have easily taken over the family business. I still build fences sometimes - but now it's around my garden, and I do it with great pride."
First summer job: Lawn guy
"I don't remember when 'work' started in my life. I caught on rather quickly that it was the only way to make money: to buy things, to take girls on dates, and to buy a car to take girls on dates."
"My primary summer job was mowing lawns. I was the lawn guy for many of our neighbors. I mowed lawns through the intense heat of summer, through rain storms, swarms of bugs and more rain."
"I'm 55, so I don't mean for this to sound like 'tales from our grandparents' but remember, this was before anything more thirst-quenching than water, and it was before water bottles became ubiquitous."
"What did I drink from? A Thermos? Probably a garden hose."
"Worst of all: It was before the invention of the Walkman. Your music had to be in your head, competing with the nasty roar of a smelly one-cylinder engine muffled through a 50-cent paper filter. I grew to prefer the neighbors who spent the extra on a self-propelled mower, which were luckily becoming all the rage in the mid-70's."
"I first got my 'working papers' at age 14 (the State of New Jersey minimum age) and then I was off to the races. Real jobs - two of them - one as a busboy at our local pancake house, the other selling hardware at Sears. I always tried to convince people to spend the extra on a self-propelled mower, knowing there was a sweaty kid out there who would appreciate it."
First summer job: Telemarketer
"Young people might not know what I'm talking about, but back in the day, people used to call you up and try to sell you things, and that was me. One product that I had to sell was the Nordic Chair, from the same company that made the NordicTrack. It was a chair you could put in your living room, but you could pull out the arms and do all sorts of exercises with pulleys."
"It was so humiliating. You would be interrupting somebody's dinner, and they would be screaming at you. I learned a lot about rejection, and getting back on the horse every time. I think that job was excellent training to become the White House press secretary."
"Another thing that job taught me, is to be a lot nicer whenever a telemarketer tries to call me. They don't relish calling your house. They're just trying to make a living."
"I know I didn't sell many Nordic Chairs. I'd love to know if anyone still has one."
First summer job: Wrestling photographer
"Back when I was in high school, I used to be a big fan of professional wrestling. This was in the days of guys like Bruno Sammartino, and the Funk Brothers, and Abdullah the Butcher. I would bring my camera with me, and take pictures of wrestling matches and try to sell them to different magazines."
"I actually got a job with a Japanese magazine, a weekly full-color glossy, because professional wrestling was huge in Japan. They would pay for my trips and give me $500 per assignment, sending me to places like Charlotte, Atlanta, and Amarillo, Texas. I actually had to ask my mother for the travel money, and then the magazine would refund her."
"All my high school friends were jealous, because here I was going around taking pictures of professional wrestlers, who were our big heroes back then. I did become a photographer later on, working for the Associated Press. And when I started working on TV for Telemundo, one of my first reports was on Abdullah the Butcher, who came out of the ring and tried to grab me and started bleeding all over me. It turned out to be a good story."

LISTen: An LISNews.org Podcast -- Episode #80
Welcome to the finale for the first series of LISTen: An LISNews.org Podcast. This episode kicks off with a look at the zeitgeist on LISNews over the past week. Profile America makes its final appearance in this series of LISTen. After that there is an interview with Jean-Baptiste Kempf, chairman of the non-profit behind the VideoLAN project. Following that is a chat with Dan Messer about "@alasecrets" and "@alasecrets2009" on Twitter. Over the course of that chat it was announced that Messer is now Interim Coordinator of the LISNews Netcast Network as of the posting of this episode.
After the first two interviews, the podcast then turns to talking to Robert Spencer. Although originally slated to speak at ALA Annual 2009 on Sunday at a panel, entitled "Perspectives on Islam: Beyond the Stereotyping", Spencer found his invitation yanked. We spoke to him about what he was going to say and also his take on what happened with the now-cancelled panel.

Newborns don't yet have a sense of day and night. They sleep around the clock, and because their tiny stomachs don't hold hold enough breast milk or formula to keep them satisfied for long, they wake often to eat — no matter what time of day or night it is.
A newborn may sleep up to 18 hours a day, waking every couple of hours to feed. Breastfed babies feed often, about 8 to 12 times a day. Bottle-fed babies tend to feed less often, about every 3 to 4 hours or so.
Because the need for food is stronger than the need for sleep at this age, babies who sleep for longer stretches should be awakened to feed. Wake your baby every 3 to 4 hours to eat until he or she shows good weight gain, which usually happens within the first couple of weeks. After that, it's OK to let your baby sleep for longer periods of time.
Babies have different phases of sleep, just like everyone else. There's drowsiness, REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, light sleep, deep sleep, and very deep sleep.
The first months of a baby's life can be the hardest for parents, who might get up many times at night to tend to the baby. Each baby has a different sleep pattern. Many babies start to sleep "through the night" (for 5-6 hours at a time) by 2 months of age, but not every baby does.
During the first weeks of a baby's life, some parent choose to room-share. Room-sharing is when you place your baby's crib, portable crib, or bassinet in your own bedroom instead of in a separate nursery. This allows your baby to be close enough to hear, smell, and sense you. This can help with baby's feeding and sleep habits, and also helps new parents catch a bit more much-needed sleep. But room-sharing may not be for everyone; each family needs to decide what works best for them.
While room-sharing is safe, putting your infant to sleep in bed with you is not. Although many cultures endorse bed-sharing, there is a risk that the baby can suffocate or strangle, and studies have shown that there's a higher incidence of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) in households where the baby slept in the parents' bed.
Follow these safety precautions with your little one:
Establishing a bedtime routine (bathing, reading, singing) will help your baby relax and sleep well. Even though your newborn may be too young to get the signals yet, setting up the bedtime drill now can keep you on track later. And putting your baby in the crib at night teaches your little one that it's the place for sleep.
If your newborn is fussy it's OK to rock, cuddle, and sing as your baby settles down. For the first months of your baby's life, "spoiling" is definitely not a problem. (In fact, newborns who are held or carried during the day tend to have less colic and fussiness.)
It may take a few weeks for your baby's brain to tell the difference between night and day. Unfortunately, there are no tricks to speed this up, but it helps to keep things quiet and calm during middle-of-the-night feedings and diaper changes. Try to keep the lights low and resist the urge to play or talk with your baby. This will reinforce the message that nighttime is for sleeping.
Also, don't try to keep your baby up during the day in the hopes that he or she will sleep better at night. Overly tired infants often have more trouble sleeping at night than those who've had enough sleep during the day.
While most parents can expect their newborn to sleep or catnap most of the day, the range of what is normal is quite wide. If you have questions about how much (or how little) your baby is sleeping, or your baby seems overly cranky and cannot be easily soothed, talk with your doctor.
If it's hard to wake your baby up from sleep and he or she is not interested in feeding in general, call your doctor immediately for reassurance or further medical advice.

The post was about an alarmingly titled BBC online news story on a study set in an English secondary school, that could only be accessed by spending $24.99. I did buy it and I used this blog to inform others who were interested but didn't purchase it. My finding was that this was a piece of poor research, done by people without backgrounds in education, and presented in a way that suggested that any peer-review process it had been near was 'light touch' in approach. In short, this Sigel Press "Special Report" didn't live up to the publisher's claim that it would contain "groundbreaking information", be "written by global experts", and be an "indispensible resource[s] to keep you up to speed in your field." For the record, my field is not secondary school education. I am a doctor and a university teacher and researcher. I maintain this blog as a way of connecting with others in the wider education community. Several of my past posts have criticised the methodology of peer-reviewed research on the use of new media in medicine; research which has been more or less reported in a positive way. I make it clear on this blog that I don't support the use of technology "for the sake of it", to the extent that I have on occasion gained the moniker "web 2.0 skeptic". And if there was evidence that the use of the internet or other tech really did harm learning, I would want to know about it. I'm not a push-over.
I emailed BBC Education News because I thought that anyone who had the report in their hands would have reached the same conclusions as me. I emailed Cranfield University PR department as well, and they thanked me and said they would pass my comments to the authors immediately. I didn't really expect to get any responses.
But Paul Bradshaw wasn't happy. He is a senior lecturer in journalism at Birmingham City University. He had emailed the BBC Education department as well and today he started chasing for a response. On the off chance I emailed the BBC again and 30 minutes later there was a reply to the email sent a week earlier. This is from Gary Eason, the BBC News website education editor:
"Hi Anne Marie
Thank you for your thoughts. The author of the article did have the whole report in front of her and interviewed one of the authors. I do not agree that our headline is "sensationalist".
best wishes
OK, we can agree to disagree I suppose. But then I saw Paul's blog post about the matter. His interaction with Mr. Eason was considerably longer and contains the following quote:
"It seems to me the results don't fit her world view so she sets about rubbishing them. Is she seriously arguing that 'cut-and-paste plagiarism' is not a problem?"
Spot the logical fallacies. This study was not good science and should not have been reported by the BBC. My worldview has nothing to do with it and is simply a red herring. In any case as I have pointed out above, I am not dogmatic about the place of technology in education. I look for evidence to inform me about what we should be doing.
Next , we have the straw-man attempt to rubbish my blog post. I made no comment at all on whether plagiarism is a problem. All of us working in education know that this can be an issue if assessments are designed badly. But my argument was that this research told us nothing about the relationship between learning and 'addiction to technology'. It possibly could have done as the researchers had data which could have been analysed to tell us something about this. But they didn't. Yes, it was a small study with a dubious response rate but they failed to make the best of the data they had.
Tom Morris comments on Paul Bradshaw's blog that this is a "perfect example of a glaring editorial problem". I think I agree. What do you think?


text: There's still time to make a 2012 IRA contribution and lower your tax bill. By Sandra Block, Senior Editor February 1, 2013 As you tackle your 2012 tax return, make sure you haven't overlooked one of the best ways to cut your tax bill and secure your future — funding a traditional IRA. (There is no upfront tax break for funding a Roth IRA.) See Also: QUIZ: Is It Tax Deductible? You can make a 2012 IRA contribution up until the time you file your tax return, due April 15, 2013. Depending on your income, you may be able to deduct your IRA contribution even if you or your spouse are covered by another retirement plan at work. To contribute to a traditional IRA, you or your spouse must have earned income from a job and be younger than 70½. Sponsored Content The IRA deduction is an "above the line" adjustment to income, meaning you don't have to itemize your deductions to claim it. It will reduce your adjusted gross income dollar-for-dollar, lowering your tax bill. And your lower adjusted gross income (AGI) could make you eligible for other tax breaks, which are tied to income limits. Advertisement Who qualifies If you are single and don't participate in a retirement plan at work, you can make a tax-deductible IRA contribution of up to $5,000 ($6,000 if you are 50 or older) regardless of your income. If you are married and your spouse is covered by a workplace-based retirement plan but you are not, you can deduct your full IRA contribution as long as your joint AGI doesn't top $173,000 for 2012. You can take a partial tax deduction if your combined income is between $173,000 and $183,000. But even if you do participate in a retirement plan at work, you can still deduct up to the maximum $5,000 IRA contribution ($6,000 if you're 50 or older) if you are single and your income is $58,000 or less ($92,000 if married filing jointly). And you can deduct some of your IRA contribution if you are single and your income is between $58,000 and $68,000, or if you are married and your income is between $92,000 and $112,000. Spouses with little or no earned income for 2012 can also make an IRA contribution of up to $5,000 ($6,000 if 50 or older) as long as their spouse has sufficient earned income to cover both contributions. The contribution is tax-deductible as long as your household income doesn't exceed the limits for married couples filing jointly. Advertisement Double tax break Some low- and moderate-income taxpayers get an extra break for contributing to an IRA or other retirement account. In addition to the usual IRA deduction, you may qualify for a Retirement Savers tax credit of up to $1,000 for contributions to an IRA or other retirement tax plan. (A tax credit, which reduces your tax bill dollar-for-dollar, is more valuable than a deduction, which merely reduces the amount of income that is taxed.) The actual amount of the credit depends on your income. It ranges from 10% to 50% of the first $2,000 contributed to an IRA or other retirement account. To be eligible, your 2012 income can't exceed $28,750 if you're single; $43,125 if you are the head of a household with dependents; or $57,500 if you are married filing jointly. The lower your income, the higher the credit. But you can't claim the Retirement Savers credit if you are under 18, a student, or can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return.
