Siesta will be your child's companion from birth until the age of 3. Versatile and ultra-comfortable, it is suitable from birth and can be used as a recliner when your baby is very young, as a high chair when it is time to eat and as a chair when your child can sit at table with adults. The advantage of Siesta is that you have two products in one, so you have more room and the house is not cluttered by too many baby items.
You can move Siesta all round the house safely on its non-scratch wheels (which do not damage parquet floors) and the innovative, Peg Perego-patented Stop&Go braking system that can only be operated by an adult. 2 "older-sibling safe" buttons unblock the wheels manually, so the highchair can be easily moved; when the commands are released, the highchair is blocked once more. When folded, Siesta is super compact, free standing, easy to store and to carry.
Its height can be adjusted to 9 positions and its tray can be removed, so it can be used as a comfortable chair at table when your child is older. Meal times become play time thanks to the practical net storage basket on the backrest, so favourite toys are always at hand.
Siesta has the Peg Perego Comfort Recline System that transforms the high chair into a recliner that can be used from birth. When the back rest is tilted by over 150 the seat moves forwards at the same time, turning the high chair into a welcoming recliner for relaxing naps. Safety is guaranteed by the 5-point safety harness (that grows with your child) and the leg divider.
Easy to use, with a soft comfortable seat that can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth. Here all the features of the Siesta high chair:

May is National Stroke Awareness Month
Cheryl L.
Wednesday, August 28, 2013
By: Cheryl Lyvers
I was a very active 43 year old. Married for 23 years to a man that is absolutely amazing. Three children 26, 22, and 21 and two grandsons. But I was always in a rush for everything. I had a hysterectomy at the age of 25 and been on hormone therapy ever since. I started trying the pellets hormone therapy. I felt great, a new person. I felt like I was in my twenty's. I had some headaches for a few months. Some were pretty intense. I had to take 8 Tylenol to touch the headaches. Went to the doctor and they put me on something for migraines. On June 11, 2013 my right side became weak. I went to the doctor, they sent me to hospital and was taken by ambulance to Louisville, Jewish hospital. I couldn't move my right side. Taken to the ICU I suffered a second stroke but on my other side just 9 days later. 3 MRIs later and blood work they couldn't determine why only that it was hormones. I lay in bed for three weeks, one week inpatient rehab and I was ready to go home. All the things they did in rehab I could and will do at home. After a week on the walker I was told to go without it. I am starting my 7th week home, therapy twice weekly and very grateful. My family has been wonderful. My husband is my rock. I have taken the year off from work and still have problems with speech, swallowing, and walking. I am coming along slow but working very hard to get back. Along with therapy I have been working out, like working out via video or walking on treadmill.
Walking has been very special to me, heck just washing, drying and curling my hair is important to do by myself. My mom and daughter helped me while in the hospital and at home. For me its a very long road but I'm determined to get back. For anyone seeing this seriously hang in there, take your time.

A Letter From Boyfriends To Michael Phelps
My girlfriend mandated workout begins Monday.
Boyfriends Everywhere.
35 comments:
- the almost right word said...
You never cease to crack me up!!!!
And please, Michael Phelps' abs are unreal. Make sure that your girlfriend knows that ahead of time.
- August 13, 2008 at 2:30 PM
- Christina_the_wench said...
Um, am I like the only chick who doesn't see his sex appeal? Body ok, but looks, no thanks. Give me a farm boy in a tight white t and levis any day.
- August 13, 2008 at 2:33 PM
- Alexa said...
ok, yes he has a hot body normally. but the whole veins pulsing from the neck and arms? not so much
- August 13, 2008 at 2:36 PM
- Jenn said...
Um. Yes. Veins or not. I'll take him.
- August 13, 2008 at 2:39 PM
- d said...
natalie coughlin's hotter though.
- August 13, 2008 at 2:53 PM
- mentalTHREESIXTY said...
Girls don't want rock hard abs and chiseled chest muscles... it's not comfy and squishy to lay on! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
- August 13, 2008 at 2:54 PM
- ANG* said...
he just needs to keep his mouth closed. (much like he does here: http://www.michaelphelps.com/ - ooowooow.) his grill is effed.
- August 13, 2008 at 2:59 PM
- lacochran's evil twin said...
I would not recommend his facial exercises.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:15 PM
- Nilsa S. said...
Here's the thing (for me at least). Hot body does not always equal hot. The face has to match. I'll take Brad Pitt over Michael Phelps any day.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:17 PM
- -A said...
The body is great, but the face - not so much. And in my opinion, if his face isn't pretty to look at I don't give a damn about the body.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:30 PM
- Lauren said...
No joke, my conversation last night with my boyfriend on the phone went like this:
Him: "So, yeah, i'll be in Orlando on Friday.."
Me: "I'm really excited--Oh my god, look at his abs!"
Him:"Michael Phelps again?"
- August 13, 2008 at 3:32 PM
- BloggingJason said...
Please don't shoulder your inadequacies on Michael Phelps. The man can only conquer so many things at one time, and world hunger is up next on his list.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:47 PM
- addy said...
Oh my gosh HAHAHAHAHA. This is awesome.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:56 PM
- Allison M. said...
He is a total athletic freak of nature. I think his feet are really flippers.
- August 13, 2008 at 3:56 PM
Ha, I love it! He is a fine piece of man, that Michael Phelps. Mmmhmmmmm...
- August 13, 2008 at 3:57 PM
- Deutlich said...
I'm gonna have to second MentalThreesixty.
- August 13, 2008 at 4:55 PM

I'll take Andrew Campbell of sailing.
- August 13, 2008 at 5:00 PM
- Kristen Kaleal said...
Reminded me of the dead people in the Body Worlds exhibit.
Decidedly NOT sexy.
- August 13, 2008 at 5:00 PM
- LBluca77 said...
You could grate cheese off those abs.
- August 13, 2008 at 5:39 PM
- Angela said...
But see, he's been doing daily workouts since he was like, in diapers. Don't fret. I'd rather have an average joe as a boyfriend than Arnold Governator.
- August 13, 2008 at 5:56 PM
- Maxie said...
hahaha I <3 that.
- August 13, 2008 at 6:09 PM

Wait what? You typed something next to the picture? I didn't see it.
- August 13, 2008 at 6:16 PM
- rs27 said...
Michael Phelps doesn't cure cancer. He scares it out of you.
- August 13, 2008 at 7:05 PM
- andrea said...
Hah, this cracked me up. That's a super creepy picture though; I blame the bulging veins.
- August 13, 2008 at 8:55 PM
- ttown said...
As hot as michael phelps is, it is unnatural to be THAT ripped. the advantage soft boys have is that it makes their girlfriends feel good about themselves! plus, who wants a man that shaves his entire body?!
- August 13, 2008 at 11:31 PM
- surviving myself said...
At least you're not ugly in the face like him dude.
Always remember that.
- August 14, 2008 at 11:34 AM
He eats 12,000 calories a day and still looks like that...Fuck him!
I mean.... I'd fuck him!
- August 14, 2008 at 1:57 PM
- catscratch said...
Oh yes. He's amazing.
- August 14, 2008 at 3:06 PM
- Hex said...
Did you hear he eats like fried egg sandwiches, a bowl of pasta, and then a pizza like 3 times a day?
Pretty much what I eat, with slightly different results.
..Methinks Phelps is doing it wrong.
- August 14, 2008 at 4:44 PM
- Mon said...
I agree with mentalthreesixty! You gotta have a comfy nook to rest your head, gotta have a lil man boobage for support.
- August 14, 2008 at 4:44 PM
- rona said...
Haha, my boyfriend shares your feelings about him. (And I share Cesci's love of him!)
- August 14, 2008 at 5:13 PM

New interns join The Gardens for the Summer of 2013
Three new interns join The Gardens for the summer of 2013: Caroline Rowan, Ian Hazelhoff and Reid Pearlman. The group joined Kaul Wildflower Garden Curator John Manion on Tuesday for some work in The Gardens, and The Gardens Blog had its first opportunity for introductions.
Caroline Rowan (above) is entering her Junior year at Birmingham-Southern College and is a graduate of Mountain Brook High School. She is majoring in Biology with a minor in Urban Environmental Studies and Psychology. After graduation she plans on perusing a career in field biology. Caroline's passion for nature and learning makes Birmingham Botanical Gardens a great environment for her summer internship. She credits The Gardens as one of the first places to spark her interest in the natural world. Caroline has grown up with The Gardens as a part of her life and is excited to now be working here. As she experiences life at The Gardens she hopes to uncover more of her interests and pursuits. Caroline will be focusing on the George Ward Park replanting project and will be evaluating the reforested area. She will also be exploring other aspects of the Gardens. Her internship is a 10-week program funded by Little Garden Club and Red Mountain Garden Club.

Staging refers to the extent or spread of cancer. Currently, there is no standard staging system for primary brain tumors. Brain tumors that begin in the brain may spread to other parts of the central nervous system, but they rarely spread to distant organs or lymph nodes. The treatment of brain tumors is based on a number of factors, including:
- The brain cell type from which the tumor originated (e.g. astrocyte, oligodendrocyte)
- Location in the brain where the tumor formed
- The amount of cancer left after surgery
- The patient's age and condition
- The grade of the tumor. Grade is determined by how the tumor appears to the pathologist under the microscope, and indicates the tumor's aggressiveness. For example, astrocytomas are graded from I to IV with the higher numbers indicating faster growth and greater malignancy.
Tumor Grade
Brain tumors are grouped by grade. The grade of a tumor refers to the way the cells look under a microscope:
- Grade I: The tissue is benign. The cells look nearly like normal brain cells, and they grow slowly.
- Grade II: The tissue is malignant. The cells look less like normal cells than do the cells in a Grade I tumor.
- Grade III: The malignant tissue has cells that look very different from normal cells. The abnormal cells are actively growing (anaplastic).
- Grade IV: The malignant tissue has cells that look most abnormal and tend to grow quickly.
Cells from low-grade tumors (grades I and II) look more normal and generally grow more slowly than cells from high-grade tumors (grades III and IV). Over time, a low-grade tumor may become a highgrade tumor. However, the change to a high-grade tumor happens more often among adults than children.

Astronomers Puzzled over Comet LINEAR's Missing Pieces
Astronomers analyzing debris from a comet that broke apart last summer spied pieces as small as smoke-sized particles and as large as football-field-sized fragments. But it's the material they didn't see that has aroused their curiosity. Tracking the doomed comet, named LINEAR, the Hubble telescope and the Very Large Telescope in Chile found tiny particles that made up the 62,000-mile-long dust tail and 16 large fragments, some as wide as 330 feet. But the telescopes didn't detect any intermediate-sized pieces. If they exist, then the fundamental building blocks that comprised LINEAR's nucleus may be somewhat smaller than current theories suggest.
Comet LINEAR
Astronomers analyzing debris from a comet that broke apart last summer spied pieces as small as smoke-sized particles and as large as football-field-sized fragments. But it's the material they didn't see that has aroused their curiosity.
Tracking the doomed comet, named C/1999 S4 (LINEAR), NASA's Hubble Space Telescope's Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 found tiny particles that made up the 62,000-mile-long (100,000-kilometer-long) dust tail and 16 large fragments, some as wide as 330 feet (100 meters). Hubble detected the small particles in the dust tail because, together, they occupy a large surface area, which makes them stand out in reflected sunlight. However, the estimated mass of the observed debris doesn't match up to the comet's bulk before it cracked up.
"The mass of the original, intact nucleus is estimated to be about 660 billion pounds (300 billion kilograms), according to some ground-based observers who were measuring its gas output," says Hal Weaver, an astronomer at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md., who studied the comet with the Hubble telescope, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile, and other ground-based telescopes.
"However, the total mass in the largest fragments measured by the Hubble telescope and the VLT is only about 6.6 billion pounds (3 billion kilograms), and the dust tail has an even smaller mass of about 0.7 billion pounds (0.3 billion kilograms). In other words, the total mass measured following the breakup is about 100 times less than the estimated total mass prior to the breakup." Weaver's results will be published in a special May 18 issue of Science devoted to the transitory comet.
So where is the rest of the comet's fractured nucleus? Perhaps, suggest Weaver and other investigators, most of the comet's bulk after the breakup was contained in pieces between about 0.1 inches (2.5 millimeters) and 160 feet (50 meters) across. These pebble-sized to house-sized fragments cannot be seen by visible-light telescopes because they do not have enough surface area to make them stand out in reflected sunlight. Comets are leftover debris from the creation of the solar system 4.6 million years ago. They're made up of a combination of solid rock and frozen gases held together by gravity.
If the midsized cometary fragments exist, then the fundamental building blocks that comprised LINEAR's nucleus may be somewhat smaller than what current "rubble pile" theories of the solar system's formation suggest. These theories generally favor football-field-sized fragments, like the ones observed by the VLT and the Hubble telescope. The analysis of LINEAR's fragments indicates that the "rubble" comprising cometary nuclei may be somewhat smaller than previously thought.
Another puzzling question is why the comet broke apart between June and July of last year as it made its closest approach to the Sun.
"We still don't know what triggered the comet's demise," Weaver says. "But we do know that carbon monoxide (CO) ice probably did not contribute to the breakup."
Hubble's Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph detected low levels of this volatile material, about 50 times less than was observed in comets Hale-Bopp and Hyakutake. Carbon monoxide ice sublimates [changes directly from a solid to a vapor] vigorously, even at the cold temperatures in a comet's interior. This activity could lead to a buildup of pressure within the core that might cause the nucleus to fragment.
"The scarcity of carbon monoxide in LINEAR's nucleus is problematic for any theory that attempts to invoke it as the trigger for the comet's demise," Weaver says.
An armada of observatories, including the Hubble telescope, watched the dazzling end to the transitory comet. Hubble was the first observatory to witness LINEAR breaking apart, spying in early July a small piece of the nucleus flowing down the doomed comet's tail. LINEAR completely disintegrated in late July as it made its closest approach to the Sun, at a cozy 71 million miles. Again, the Hubble telescope tracked the comet, finding at least 16 fragments that resembled "mini-comets" with tails. Now LINEAR is little more than a trail of debris orbiting the Sun. The comet is believed to have wandered into the inner solar system from its home in the Oort Cloud, a reservoir of space debris on the outskirts of the solar system.
"We were witnessing a rare view of a comet falling to pieces," Weaver says. "These observations are important because, by watching comet LINEAR unravel, we are essentially seeing its formation in reverse. The nucleus was put together 4.6 billion years ago when the Earth and other planets were forming, so by watching the breakup we are looking backwards in time and learning about conditions during the birth of the solar system."
Weaver notes, however, that astronomers may have witnessed an "oddball" comet break apart.
"I've never seen anything like this," he says. "I know of no other example of a comet falling to pieces like this. Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 fell apart, but tidal forces from Jupiter caused that disintegration. LINEAR didn't come close to any other large object. Comet Tabur (C/1996 Q1) also seemed to vanish without a trace, but it already was the fragment of another comet nucleus [C/1988 A1 (Liller)]. Some investigators concluded that Tabur did not even break up but rather, became 'invisible' only because the icy area on its surface was no longer in sunlight, and its activity shut down as a result."
Comet LINEAR was named for the observatory that first spotted it, the Lincoln Near Earth Asteroid Research (LINEAR) program.

Documentation outlineThe documentation for fossil needs to be divided into these main sections:
TutorialThe tutorial portion is the hand-holding portion that takes a new user through the steps of getting, building and using fossil. Fossil's terms should be defined here and basic workflow established. Ideally a sample project should be used to show fossil in use and give the user something to type to magically have fossil do cool stuff.
CookbookThe cookbook is a task-oriented portion (likely one that's ever-expanding as fossil is increasingly developed and honed) designed for a user who has basic skills in using fossil (like, say, me) but isn't familiar with all the fancier aspects of it and the inobvious workflows that it supports. Each "recipe" (use case) in the cookbook should follow a format with these following points:
- Succinct problem statement.
- Detailed statement of problem and motivation for solution.
- Detailed instructions (no discussion!) for implementing the solution.
- Discussion of the solution including, if applicable, pitfalls and alternatives.
ReferenceThe reference is self-explanatory. Basically take everything from
help * and put it here. However, the terseness of
help, while good for a quick reminder at the command line, is not
suitable for "real" documentation. Ideally each documented element in the
reference should have a full explanation, including links to related items, as
well as examples. (This has been what's killing me with grokking some
aspects of fossil: I just can't figure out what they do!)
Developer GuideIt is inevitable that people will want to start building third-party tools that interface with fossil as fossil gets more widely adopted and more mature. We might as well head off the inevitable and let developers have the information they need without tearing apart the source to get to it. This would include things like:
- any APIs it would be reasonable to expose
- a current, up-to-date database schema
- notes on inner workings (already supplied, but might need dusting off and TLC)
- anything else we can think of (Lua/Tcl/whatever bindings?)

Probing Question: Are there harmful ingredients in cosmetics?
The Johnson & Johnson company made news recently with the announcement that it plans to remove "a host of potentially harmful chemicals" from its U.S. product line by the end of 2015, becoming the first major manufacturer of consumer products to make a commitment of this kind to the public. It's likely that many consumers were not even aware that "ingredients of concern" were in personal care products to begin with. What are these chemicals and are they safe for use in cosmetics?

Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University requires all students to take Computational Methods in Engineering during their freshman year. The goal is to give students early, practical exposure to engineering concepts so that they can better decide which field of engineering they want to pursue.
To improve the student experience and exposure to engineering, my colleagues and I have changed the course significantly in the past five years. Chief among these changes are the adoption of MATLAB® as the fundamental programming tool and the addition of hands-on data acquisition-focused labs based on Data Acquisition Toolbox. Surveys indicate that these changes have increased the students' satisfaction with the course.
Teaching Challenges
The challenge we face is how to take more than 300 first-year students, teach them a new computing language, offer them a glimpse into different engineering paths, and provide them with basic skills—all while maintaining Pratt's vision of a "bold, personal, and interdisciplinary" education.
The examples used in the class and lab must be approachable by students with little background but still interesting to those who have already taken (and in some cases, mastered) the material.
The students' programming backgrounds present a different kind of challenge. In 2006, 60% of 295 students surveyed reported themselves "complete beginners" with respect to programming. The survey revealed that while 17.8% had used C/C++, 26.0% had used Java, and 18.1% had used BASIC, only 6.3% had used MATLAB.
The relatively small number of students with MATLAB experience has worked to our advantage, as it means that almost all the students start on an even playing field. Furthermore, having students coming in with some experience in different languages sparks conversations during lecture about the similarities and differences between languages. Again, the key is to make sure that the course is challenging for the students with programming backgrounds but not unapproachable by those new to the field.
Course Objectives
In the first lecture we lay out the learning objectives, which are to give students the tools and experience necessary to:
- Interpret engineering problem statements and solve them using MATLAB
- Model physical systems and optimize parameters using iterative structures
- Solve problems using numerical integration, roots of equations, simultaneous equations, finite difference methods, matrix analysis, linear programming, dynamic programming, and heuristic solutions
- Document engineering design solutions
While these are ambitious goals for an introductory course, the easy-to-use nature of MATLAB has made it possible to accomplish them. Taking advantage of the flexibility of MATLAB, students in the course have generated and measured electrical signals, recorded sounds, calibrated measuring devices, and played games. They have also written solutions to Sudoku puzzles and generated complex fractal trees.
Incorporating Data Acquisition Labs
A common theme in course reviews was that students wanted to see the computer "do something." As a result, a series of data acquisition (DAQ) labs was added to the course (Figure 1).
Sample Lab Work
One of the first labs that we introduced has students verify the calibration of a pressure sensor and analyze the accuracy and applicability of narrow- and broad-range calibrations. Students are given a 1L graduated "cylinder" (actually, the frustum of a cone, which becomes important in later calculations) with a small hole drilled at the 100 mL mark. A small fill tube connected to a pressure sensor attaches to the hole. The sensor has four lead wires, two to power the sensor and two to take measurements.
Students must use knowledge acquired from previous DAQ labs to correctly wire the sensor leads to a National Instruments CB-68LP connector block attached to a National Instrument PCI 6014e Multifunction DAQ card. The card can both power the sensor and read voltages from it.
The students then run four programs using MATLAB and Data Acquisition Toolbox to:
The acquisition program starts with code that initializes the data acquisition process and turns on the sensor. Next, students write a loop that asks the user to enter the current in the cylinder. Once this value is stored, the program averages and stores 1,000 voltage samples from the sensor. The loop continues until the user specifies that the acquisition phase is over, at which point the acquisition data sets are saved.
This program focuses on early concepts within the class: command window I/O, structured programming, storing data using vectors, and saving data. Students take two sets of data, one over a wide range of volumes and one over a narrow range.
The calibration program takes the voltage and volume data saved in the previous step and calculates a fit for volume as a function of voltage (Figure 2). The program then uses the function to calculate the volume of fluid in the cylinder by simply reading a voltage from the sensor.
The pressure sensors exhibit a first-order relationship between pressure and voltage, but because the cylinders aren't truly cylindrical, there is a higher-order relationship between the volume and the height (and thus, the pressure), resulting in a higher-order relationship between the volume and the voltage. The calibration program takes this into account using a third-order fit, then plots the original data points and the curve of best fit.
This program focuses on later material in the course: loading data, graphically representing data and fit lines, calculating polynomial fits, and creating data sets to represent fit lines. The data for the narrow calibration, which is closely spaced relatively far from the origin, results in an ill-conditioned matrix when the polyfit command is used. This opens up discussion of why that happens and how to compensate for it.
The students are given a program to read the fluid volume based on the calibration data.
The program loads calibration information and then continually reads voltages from the sensor. As it does so, a figure window with a graphical representation of a cylinder shows the fluid level, while in the command window, the sensor voltages and equivalent volumes are displayed as a strip chart.
Every semester, a few students fail to realize that the computer is actively monitoring the system and ask, "Why isn't the level changing?" This leads to the "That's so cool" moment when I change the water level and the computer representation changes accordingly.
For this program, students manually take volume estimate data using each of the calibrations for several fluid levels between the ranges of the narrow and broad calibrations. Several factors, such as the ill-conditioned matrix and the measurement error, invariably lead to the narrow-range calibration producing major errors in extrapolation. (Students generally report either negative volumes or volumes overfilling the cylinder.)
This program demonstrates the hazards of extrapolation and the importance of creating a model that is not only mathematically correct but also physically realistic.
clear % load data FileName = input('Enter filename for 3rd order fit coefficients (eg Vol1Coefs): ', 's'); FileLoad = sprintf('load %s', FileName); eval(FileLoad) %% Prepare output % Create handle to output AO = analogoutput('nidaq'); % Add channel 0 addchannel(AO, 0); % Put 10V to channel (powers sensor) putsample(AO, 10); %% Prepare input % Create handle to input AI = analoginput('nidaq'); % Add channel 1 addchannel(AI, 1); % Set Input, Sensor, and Units range to [-0.05, 0.05] set(AI.Channel(1),'InputRange',[-0.05, 0.05]); set(AI.Channel(1),'SensorRange',[-0.05, 0.05]); set(AI.Channel(1),'UnitsRange',[-0.05, 0.05]); %% Plot figure(1); hold off; QPlot = bar(0); axis([.5 1.5 0 1000]); ylabel('Volume (mL)'); fprintf('Time (s) Voltage (mV) Volume (mL)\n'); tic while 1, % Get data from transducer for k=1:1000 VolArray(k) = getsample(AI); end % Find average value of data AvgVoltage = mean(VolArray); % Use coefficients to determine volume Volume = polyval(P, AvgVoltage); % Update bar plot QPlot = bar(Volume); axis([.5 1.5 0 1000]); fprintf('%8.2f %12.4f %12.2f\n', toc, AvgVoltage*1000, Volume); drawnow end
Excerpt from MATLAB program to read fluid volume based on calibration data.
In the final program, students use their data to see whether the manufacturer's claim that a sensor with 10V across the power leads will actually show 10 mV of change across the sensing leads for every 1 psi change in pressure.
This final program contains code to calculate fluid height as a function of volume, since the conversion from volume to height for the frustum of a cone is both irksome and outside the scope of the course. The program presents a graphical examination of voltage as a function of pressure (Figure 3) and allows the students to either confirm or challenge the manufacturer's specifications.
In four years, every sensor properly attached to the DAQ card has produced calibrations that match the manufacturer's claim exceedingly well.
This feature of the course is especially valuable. Students—especially in introductory courses—enjoy working on an assignment where the results are tangible and verifiable. This approach also builds confidence in the reliability of computational methods, preparing them for those times when the answers are not known a priori.
Advantages of Using MATLAB
This lab demonstrates the importance of MATLAB and Data Acquisition Toolbox to the course. Giving students an easy-to use but powerful language with which they can obtain real-world data, analyze it, present both the data and the results of the analysis graphically, and verify published specifications of devices starts a process of exploration that we hope will motivate the rest of their undergraduate engineering experience.
Despite their different background experiences and interests, students can easily jump in and start work on practical engineering problems while learning about programming and numerical methods. Using MathWorks tools has significantly improved both the student experience and the concepts and skills covered in the course.

Mississippi College Law Dean Jim Rosenblatt Will Join Faculty in August 2014
Jim Rosenblatt, who's provided extraordinary service as dean at the Mississippi College School of Law for more than a decade, will leave his post in August 2014 to become a law professor on the Jackson campus.
The energetic leader of MC Law since August 2003 ranks among the USA's top 20 longest serving law deans. Rosenblatt deserves a great deal of credit for the institution's rise to prominence.
During his tenure, a modern law school campus has emerged on East Griffith Street just blocks from the Capitol. In addition, there were three new buildings, a series of renovations to other facilities and the arrival of the latest high-tech equipment. MC Law strengthened ties to the capital city's community by offering a Legal Aid Clinic in west Jackson serving more than 1,200 clients annually.
A member of the U.S. Army's Judge Advocate General's Corps for 30 years before joining Mississippi College's law school, Rosenblatt accomplished many strategic goals but felt it was time to pursue other objectives. "One can't do this job forever. I have a sense that the end of this academic year will be an appropriate time to make the transition from dean to faculty."
An expert in government contracts and military law who recently analyzed the tenure of America's law deans in a national legal publication, Rosenblatt will remain an invaluable resource at MC Law. "I look forward to the opportunity to mentor students, support experiential learning and engage in community work," said the Vanderbilt University cum laude alumnus and graduate of Cornell Law School.
Rosenblatt has been a dynamic leader as MC Law established law centers, developed programs with a skill-based focus, and instituted overseas study programs in China, Korea, Germany, Mexico and France. He orchestrated efforts to bring significant events of public interest to the law school, including live televised debates in races for Mississippi governor and Jackson's mayoral contest.
Mississippi College leaders, including President Lee Royce, praise Rosenblatt for advancing the law school's prestige in the eyes of the legal community, both regionally and nationally.
"Jim has done superb work as law school dean moving the program forward in so many impressive ways," Royce said. "He has been fully engaged in the life and work of the Law School connecting with students, staff, faculty, alumni and friends while making such a positive impact upon all who meet him."
Often seen enthusiastically giving "high fives" to members of the MC family at the law school and the Christian university's main campus in Clinton, Rosenblatt will be missed, Royce said.
Colleagues agree. "Dean Jim Rosenblatt is a remarkably resourceful and talented leader whose boundless energy, keen intellect and passionate devotion to our students and faculty are all manifested in the marvelous transformation of MC Law over the last decade," said Ron Howard, vice president for academic affairs.
Howard is delighted Rosenblatt will serve as a full-time faculty member. "His transition from the deanship to the classroom means he will continue to shape profoundly the careers of aspiring law students, who have always been his highest priority and greatest source of inspiration."
Born in Natchez, Rosenblatt grew up on a family farm near the Mississippi River. His parents emphasized education and hard work as the cornerstones of life that will lead to success. The Mississippian served as president of his senior class at Vanderbilt and completed the ROTC program while attending Cornell Law School. He retired from the Army with the rank of colonel and earned the Distinguished Service Medal and three awards of the Legion of Merit. He's won several awards for his service to the state's legal community.
Rosenblatt and his wife, Lauren, are Ridgeland residents. Relinquishing his duties as dean next summer will give him the chance to spend more time with family and do some traveling. But Rosenblatt will never lose touch with thousands of Mississippi College law alumni, whether they serve on the bench, in politics, in military circles or another capacity in the legal world. "I am proud of our graduates."
Mississippi College leaders expect to select a new law dean prior to the start of the university's next academic year in August 2014.

Difference between revisions of "LIRC"
(→For lircd version 0.8.5 and previous)
(No difference)
Revision as of 10:23, 29 October 2009
This howto is for using lirc with serial or USB infrared devices
- 1 Name
- 2 Making configuration file
- 3 Run lirc at bootup
- 4 Enable lirc support in xine
LIRC stands for "Linux Infrared Remote Control", a program to use infrared devices (like your remote control from your TV) with linux.
First install lirc with pacman:
pacman -S lirc
it's also recommended that you install the utils file too
pacman -S lirc-utils
Serial receivers
Now there might be a problem: the module lirc_serial is build to use ttyS0 (COM1), if your device isn't connected to ttyS0, you'll have to either change the module-options or rebuild the lirc module. If your device is connected to ttyS0, you can skip this step
To change the options for the lirc_serial module, you edit /etc/modprobe.conf and add this line:
options lirc_serial io=0x2f8 irq=3
You should change the values after io and irq to reflect you serial port settings, the values above may work for you if you are using ttyS1 (COM2) to connect your IR-device. But you will find the correct values by checking your dmesg:
dmesg|grep ttyS
Building the lirc_serial module for another ttySx
Update abs
(as root) abs
copy the lirc files to a directory you choose yourself:
cp /var/abs/extra/system/lirc /some/dir
goto /some/dir
edit the PKGBUILD in that directory replace the line:
./configure --enable-sandboxed --prefix=/usr \ --with-driver=all \\ return 1[/code]
./configure --enable-sandboxed --prefix=/usr \ --with-driver=com2 \ || return 1[/code]
where you replace com2 with the com-port you need.
build and install the package:
makepkg (as root) pacman -U lirc-version.pkg.tar.gz
now try to load the serial module:
modprobe lirc_serial
If this produces an error which says your serial port is not ready, you have the problem that your serial port support is build into the kernel and not as a module (in the default arch kernel it is build into the kernel)
If it's build into the kernel you'll have to do the following (remember that it is build into the kernel, you will need to make some changes later too)
You'll have to release the serial port:
setserial /dev/ttySx uart none
(Replace x with your port number)
Load the module again:
modprobe lirc_serial
Now it shouldn't show any errors, and the modules lirc_serial should be listed in lsmod
USB Devices
Newer devices may be using the mceusb2 module you should change mceusb2 to mceusb if you are using the old version of the remote. To manually load the USB receiver:
modprobe lirc_mceusb2
then load lirc
Test it with irw. irw will output the commands received by the IR receiver that match your lircd.conf file. So start irw, point your remote and start pressing buttons.
# irw 000000037ff07bfe 00 One mceusb 000000037ff07bfd 00 Two mceusb 000000037ff07bfd 01 Two mceusb 000000037ff07bf2 00 Home mceusb 000000037ff07bf2 01 Home mceusb
The above procedure however has been simplified and probably won't work that easily. If you get errors in the above try the following:
One of the reasons the lircd daemon may not be working is because it expects to be run at startup and needs root permissions because it will create device nodes in /dev. Try "man lircd" for more information.
To run lircd at startup, add it to the DAEMONS line in /etc/rc.conf. eg:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond lircd)
Also, if needed add your receivers kernel module to the MODLUES line of /etc/rc.conf eg (for the MCE Remote control):
Next, you need to put your remotes .config file into /etc/lirc.config. These files can be found either in your directory /usr/share/lirc/remotes/ or you may be able to find them here http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/
If you're copying it locally here's an example of what you would do for the mceusb remote
sudo cp /usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb /etc/lircd.conf
upon rebooting the remote should work. Test it with irw. irw will output the commands received by the IR receiver that match your lircd.conf file. So start irw, point your remote and start pressing buttons
# irw 000000037ff07bfe 00 One mceusb 000000037ff07bfd 00 Two mceusb 000000037ff07bfd 01 Two mceusb 000000037ff07bf2 00 Home mceusb 000000037ff07bf2 01 Home mceusb

Howto setup HID device working with lirc
For Lirc version 0.8.5 and previous
Nowaday there are some cheap HID devices on the market. They are looks like a MCE USB remote, but they aren't.If you plug those devices into you computer, system will automaticly recognize them as USB keyboard, it can be used even without lirc. Every button on the device is recognize as a key or a combination of some keys.Because of that, those devices can only do some very few DIYs, so lack of Good user exerperience.If you want get more customized seting, here is the solution:
Because the HID remote actually simulates a USB infrared Keyboard and an mouse, there are two devices, so you need to create two lirc daemon instead just one in default setting.
Fisrt we need the find out our HID device in /proc/bus/input/device
cat /proc/bus/input/device
You shoud find some info like this "Name="HID xxxx:xxxx", here first "xxxx" is the id of the vendor, second one is product id.For example, in my case it's
Name="HID 3353:3713"
Remember it,those info is import, we will use them late.
then go to /dev/input/by-id
ls -l /dev/input/by-id
You shold find two files named with vendor id and product id, in my case
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 10月 14 06:43 usb-3353_3713-event-if00 -> ../event9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 10月 14 06:43 usb-3353_3713-event-if01 -> ../event10
Here 'usb-3353_3713-event-if00' and 'usb-3353_3713-event-if01' are the linux input device event for our HID device, one for the keyboard, another for the mouse.
Then, we need to edit /etc/conf.d/lircd,this file contains the parameters for lirc daemon
# #Parameters for daemon # PIDFILE0="/var/run/lircd0.pid" PIDFILE1="/var/run/lircd1.pid" LIRC_DEVICE0="/dev/input/by-id/usb-3353_3713-event-if00" LIRC_DEVICE1="/dev/input/by-id/usb-3353_3713-event-if01" LIRC_DRIVER="devinput" LIRC_EXTRAPTS="" LIRC_CONFIGFILE="/etc/lircd.conf"
NOTE: Here we set up two lirc devices with the id 3353_3713, you should replace them with your own device input event name, whatever it is.
At the last line we set up the lirc config file, there is a exists lirc config file for HID remote.Simply save it as /etc/lircd.conf.

At last, we need to edit our lirc daemon script
vim /etc/rc.d/lircd
Here is what it looks like after the edit.

In orde to launch the lirc daemon for HID remote, You must enable evdev module first
modprobe evdev
Then you can launch the lric daemon.
/etc/rc.d/lircd start
You can test the setting with irw command
You should see something like this on you screen when you click the remote button.

If you like start lirc daemon at the boot ,simply put evden and lircd to your /etc/rc.conf
MODULES=(... evdev ...) DAEMONS=(... lircd ...)
enjoy it!
For Lirc version 0.8.6 and above
According the changes in Lirc version 0.8.6, we need do some tiny change in order to make HID works with latest verson of lirc.
1. changes in config files
The content of these config file do not need to do any change, so you can still use the example in lirc 0.8.5. The only thing you need to do is change where the file shoud to be put at. The config file that contains the parameters for /etc/rc.d/lircd has been move from /etc/conf.d/(in lirc 0.8.5) to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf. The config file of HID device itself remains the same postion with old version, ie, /etc/licd.conf
2, changes in /etc/rc.d/lircd Though of lirc 0.8.6 had changed the default socket from /dev/lircd to /var/run/lirc/lircd, but most applications still recognize the old socket. So I strongly recommend that you should make a soft link with the name '/etc/rc.d/lircd', like this
#!/bin/bash . /etc/rc.conf . /etc/rc.d/functions . /etc/lirc/lircd.conf PID=$(pidof -o %PPID /usr/sbin/lircd) case "$1" in start) stat_busy "Starting LIRC Daemon" [ -n "$LIRC_DRIVER" ] && LIRC_EXTRAOPTS="-H $LIRC_DRIVER $LIRC_EXTRAOPTS" [ -z "$PID" ] && if [ -n "$LIRC_DEVICE0" ] && [ -n "$LIRC_DEVICE1" ] ; then /usr/sbin/lircd -d "$LIRC_DEVICE0" $LIRC_EXTRAOPTS $LIRC_CONFIGFILE --pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd0.pid --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd0 --listen /usr/sbin/lircd -d "$LIRC_DEVICE1" $LIRC_EXTRAOPTS $LIRC_CONFIGFILE --pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd.pid --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --connect=localhost:8765 ln -s /var/run/lirc/lircd /dev/lircd else /usr/sbin/lircd $LIRC_EXTRAOPTS $LIRC_CONFIGFILE --pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd0.pid --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd0 --listen /usr/sbin/lircd $LIRC_EXTRAOPTS $LIRC_CONFIGFILE --pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd.pid --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --connect=localhost:8765 ln -s /var/run/lirc/lircd /dev/lircd fi if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then stat_fail else add_daemon lircd stat_done fi ;; stop) stat_busy "Stopping LIRC Daemon" [ ! -z "$PID" ] && kill $PID &> /dev/null if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then stat_fail else rm_daemon lircd stat_done fi ;; restart) $0 stop sleep 1 $0 start ;; *) echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" esac exit 0
You can file all these codes in my github page
Howto setup the X10 - a radio remote
Making configuration file
You'll need a configuration file for your remote control. The easiest way is to look on the lirc site and hope your device has already a config file: list of remotes on the lirc site
If so, download your file and save it as /etc/lircd.conf
If your device doesn't have already a config file, you'll have to create the file yourself with the command:
irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 /tmp/my_remote
Just follow the instructions. The resulting file, /tmp/my_remote, should then be copied to /etc/lircd.conf. If you want to use several remotes, you repeat the irrecord step with each remote and different filenames, and then concatenate all the resulting files into /etc/lircd.conf:
cat /tmp/my_remote /tmp/my_remote2 /tmp/my_remote3 >/etc/lircd.conf
First start the lircd daemon:
as root
/etc/rc.d/lircd start
A good way to see if lirc is running is to run irw.
When you press a button, you should get something like this:
0000000000000001 00 play sony2 0000000000000001 01 play sony2 0000000000000001 02 play sony2 0000000000000001 03 play sony2
In this case my remote is called sony2, the button is called play, and lirc has seen it 4 times.
Run lirc at bootup
Remember if you had to execute the setserial command while loading the module?
If so, Your serial port support is compiled into the kernel
Your serial port support is compiled as a module in the kernel
This is rather easy: you'll just have to add lirc_serial to the modules list and lircd to the daemons list in /etc/rc.conf
Your serial port support is compiled into the kernel
This is more complicated, you can't just add the lirc_serial to the modules list in /etc/rc.conf, as the serial port should be released first.
So I created a custom startup script to fix this problem
#!/bin/bash #/etc/rc.d/start_lirc #releases ttySx and loads lirc_serial module . /etc/rc.conf . /etc/rc.d/functions case "$1" in start) stat_busy "release ttySx" setserial /dev/ttySx uart none #load lirc module modprobe lirc_serial stat_done ;; stop) stat_busy "unload lirc module" rmmod lirc_serial stat_done ;; restart) $0 stop $0 start ;; *) echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" esac exit 0
Now load the daemons: add "start_lirc" and "lircd" to the daemons list in /etc/rc.conf
Enable lirc support in xine
Now lirc works, but you have no program that can communicate with lirc. This section will explain how to make xine work, but you can use xmms and mplayer (and probably a lot of other programs too) to work with lirc.
compile xine with lirc support
download the xine-ui pkgbuild from the cvs tree
Add " --enable-lirc" to the "./configure" line
uninstall old xine-ui and install the new one
pacman -R xine-ui pacman -U xine-filename.pkg.tar.gz
configure xine to use lirc
let xine produce a default .lircrc file. In your home directory, type:
xine --keymap=lirc>.lircrc
now, in order to have a functioning xine+lirc, edit the .lircrc file to your preferences.
Have fun! :-)
However, you may choose to configure lirc to control more than just xine. If this is the case, you will need to manually edit the .lircrc file, and add elements.
Xine-ui Mplayer Totem Vlc Rhythmbox
all work with lirc, but you must enable lirc support in the program in some cases, such as VLC. Simply copy the vlc packagebuild and edit it so that "--enable-lirc" is one of the compile options for VLC not FFMPEG!
In any event, should you require more information, you may consult http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_LIRC, which is an incredibly in-depth detailed howto regarding all aspects of Lirc and its configuration.

I'm not a huge fan of sports and so I don't really care for the Olympics, the only parts I like are the opening and closing ceremonies (isn't that what the Olympics are about), the rest for me is just blah.
A few hours ago the London 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony ended and the Olympic Games were declared officially open…the ceremony was really good especially when following the #openingceremony hash tag which was trending on twitter, lots of funny tweets there.
My favorite part of the ceremony was Chariots of Fire, although my first thought was, beh, I don't want to listen to an orchestra for the next 5 minutes until I looked up and there was Mr Bean "ruining it' for everyone. I couldn't stop laughing.
I still can't work out why would they dedicate a whole 10 minutes (more or less) to the NHS. Really? Why?
The Queen who was escorted to the ceremony via helicopter by "James Bond" where both of them parachuted out of it presumably into the stadium (I'm really sure that it wasn't her and was most likely a stunt double), was sitting there looking bored the whole time…or she was just behaving like a queen, it's really hard to tell the two apart unless you are royalty.
Before the ceremony was over the "queen memes" started showing up on the interwebs.
I'm 100% sure this is what she was thinking the whole time, mainly because I was thinking it too:
Apparently we weren't the only ones hoping for "The Doctor" to show up:
A worldwide WTF moment went out to the German dignitary greeting his team…I see a World War 3 in our future…or maybe he's just a huge Hitler fan:
And the one new thing we all learnt from this…a British dude invented the internet! Who would have known!
Finally, here are some more funny tweets:

OJS et al's being decentralized is an obvious asset -- users have complete control over individual installations and there is no need for a difficult-to-maintain cloud infrastructure for hosting any of several thousand PKP suite instantiations. Despite this, there are innumerable opportunities for taking advantage of having a common platform which is so well-dispersed. Some of these are discussed in greater detail below.
Currently, PKP journals are only connected to one another by "traditional" bibliometrics (i.e. reference lists which may or may not contain doi links), and may or may not be indexed, at most, in DOAJ. Much has been made of open-access journals' greater research impact in terms of citation counts (Antelman 2004, JCRL; Hajjem et al. 2005, arxiv). Beyond this, however, there have been no real bibliometric innovations which are new and unique to open-access literature.
- Theoretically universal availability of HTML full text means that exact citation contexts could be fetched automatically when highlighted in an article. Cited articles could be hyperlinked to the point of reference via a single-click, and a snippet could be displayed in the current window (as marginalia, or using a "speech bubble" interface as in the FastestFox/FastestChrome browser plugin, which fetches dictionary definitions of highlighted words, with the option to use them as Google search criteria without needing to copy/paste).
Data Sharing
Sharing research data is gaining popularity at the forefront of the open access movement (Piwowar, 2007), but is still relatively unpopular, owing to the reluctance of scholars to format and provide reusable data alongside research submissions.
- OJS could provide a means to attach raw data (not displayed in the text itself) to article submissions, which would then be automatically ingested into searchable data repositories such as http://datadryad.org via plugin support, potentially removing the greatest obstacle to data sharing.
- treeBASE/GenBank probably less relevant as specialized repositories for OJS journal data?
Enabling annotation and sharing of marginalia in HTML open-access journals has been well-implemented into PLoS ONE, and the potential for integration into OJS has been well-studied (Kopak & Chiang, 2007).
- Although it makes sense to implement mechanism for the clustering and relevance-weighting of public annotations, and this has been relatively well-studied (see Han & Yan, 2009, JIS, for an excellent review and a novel algorithm), a manual "flag and approve" system has proven the most effective for PLoS.
- PLoS does not have a system for privately-viewable annotations; would be relatively easy to implement this.
- If we assume that PKP journals are used by a smaller, more intimate community, it may make sense to treat them as workspaces where all users' annotations would be visible -- but this could reconceptualize what is intended by a "journal." Could obviously have different user classes and privilege the visibility of some users' annotations over others. For example, easy to imagine an instructor providing a link to an OJS journal article with the directions for and space to complete an assignment included within the page, no external CMS required.
- Many OJS users still work exclusively with PDF, where HTML annotation breaks down (see a parallel example of this in Zotero). Advising users on best practices for Adobe Reader annotation is unideal -- features are poorly-documented and not well-used (try searching "adobe reader annotation" on Google), and can not be shared independently of the entire document. Foxit and PDF-XChange are no better until you get to the paid versions. Even if we provide the ability to re-upload commented PDFs and link versioned documents (as in Nature Precedings pre-print archive), this loses a lot of the convenience from annotation.
- Perhaps trivial, but worth noting in light of the current demo (http://mdouglas.etcl.uvic.ca/ojs2/) that there's still no well-established interface for saving highlighted text. Javascript buttons for different colors aren't entirely intuitive -- highlighting text simply doesn't feel like a weighty act. jQuery implementation for interacting directly with the text (e.g. the "speech bubble" interface discussed above) is probably ideal.
Research networks
Scientists don't seem to be using social networks for research purposes (see http://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2009/10/19/scientists-still-not-joining-social-networks/), and the market for such tools remains flooded.
- In the interest of not taking on an additional hosting burden for PKP (is a common theme emerging yet?) and not providing even more competing alternatives to what already exists, I'd advocate for looking into the available Zotero/Mendeley API for automatic ingestion of research networks data. Might be worth establishing a working relationship with Zotero development (afaik, PKP has support for COinS, but that's all), although worth noting that I strongly prefer working with Mendeley (not open-source) for the interface alone.
Automatic linking and indexing
User mapping
Paradigmatic case: on the freely-hosted WordPress.org network, users have a consistent username, profile, and avatar which loosely unifies activity across blog comments. Individual WordPress installations do not have this advantage, but perhaps benefit from the consistent interface of the former.
- Why was this judged not worth the trouble to harvest and maintain from a platform which is, like PKP, decentralized but relatively universal? Certainly less authority implicit in a blog versus an academic journal, although WP install is (barely) nontrivial enough that anybody going to the trouble must have some vested interest in its use. Is every WP commenter of value to the system? Every PKP author certainly would be.
- My instinct is that this would be (perhaps alone) doable in terms of a centralized repository -- it's unclear whether there is an effective method in place for crawling all public instantiations of OJS (there should be), but scraping this data would be relatively non-intensive.
- Strict opt-in privacy controls needed (probably wouldn't want to share e.g. author accept/reject information).
- Not clear whether tools for direct collaboration are necessary or valuable here (what can PKP offer beyond Google Docs?) -- however, potentially invaluable in terms of data mining and looking at usage statistics. Looking at whether researchers want their reading behavior tracked is worth a study in its own right, but comes back to the original issue: they usually can't be bothered.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- The northern half of Ohio could see the potential for flooding as melting snow and combines with rain.
The Cleveland office of the National Weather Service says the shrinking snow will release a significant amount of water as warmer temperatures move into the state Thursday. Forecasters say any heavy rain could produce flooding, with some river flooding likely.
A flood watch will be in effect from Thursday afternoon through Friday morning. Areas under the watch include Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH'-guh), Geauga (jee-AW'-guh), Lucas and Ottawa counties.
A watch means there is a potential for flooding based on current forecasts.
Meteorologist Andy Latto (LAHT'-toh) at the weather service's Wilmington office says no flood watches were issued for southern Ohio. But there could be some heavy rain with a chance of flooding.

Besides having a huge impact on your audience, video marketing software can also help improve your website's search engine rankings. One of the metrics search engines use to measure quality of a website is content. A website that has both text and other media such as unique videos, shows the site's commitment to providing quality information and helps to improve rankings over time. Also, video software automates the distribution and posting of your videos on different video sites such as YouTube, which generates backlinks to your website. Quality backlinks are another factor search engines use to rank a site and video marketing software helps you achieve that.
There are several video marketing software packages available so I have selected a few of the most popular and widely used to review.
EasyVideoSuite is well designed and used by some of the biggest names in online marketing. It is designed to work with PayPal, MailChimp, ClickBank, AWeber, WordPress, Optimize Press, etc. Some of its most popular features are:
- Basic video recording from the screen or via webcam.
- Ability to add 'Buy Now' and other call to action buttons.
- Creation of timed events around the video to captivate your audience.
- SEO features.
- Security.
- Video conversion.
- Advanced video marketing statistics.
- Split testing and much more.
Video Curation Pro helps you create and spin videos using curated text and videos. Video Curation Pro optimizes and uploads video on websites like YouTube and helps get them ranked. The best thing about this system is it is fully automated. You don't have to do any work! This software works by sourcing images from your hard drive, Instagram, Pinterest, etc., and uses them to create a video. You can edit the quality of the images and sound, and add or delete whatever you want.
The Traffic Player is a marketing software and WordPress plugin that works by creating customizable skins and support systems. It is extremely easy to use, great for beginners, and a great tool to instantly stylize your video. Its functionality includes:
- 20+ premium video skins.
- Widgetized support.
- Amazon3 direct linking.
- Mobile format URL support.
- HTML5 support.
- Viral social buttons.
Viewbix is all about taking video marketing and making it more effective to drive real leads. Many marketers mistakenly think an informative video as opposed to informative text is most effective. That is not always the case. Videos can be downright boring. Viewbix software incorporates lead generation tools and interactive apps to your video that make your audience interact with you and take action.
Tube Toolbox is specific to YouTube and one of the best YouTube marketing software available. It is particularly good at improving your channel's popularity. Some of Tube Toolbox's features are:
- Automated friend requests.
- Message and video.
- Audience targeting.
- Gathering features.
Best of all, Tube Toolbox always complies with YouTube's terms of service so you can rest easy your videos will by accepted by YouTube.
The last video marketing software we will review is SociVidz. SociVidz is a new software released in 2014 that is one of the most affordable video syndication services and is much cheaper than the previously mentioned options. However, despite its low cost; it has many more features than the other software reviewed. As a result, SociVidz is considered an up-and-coming video syndication powerhouse by internet marketers.
Here is a list of some of the features SociVidz offers:
- Add soundtracks, voice-overs, intro clips, transitions, zoom/pan effects +++
- Edit, manipulate, split videos and perform various audio and video changes
- Video keyword research
- Video competition analyses research
- Google & YouTube video ranking analyses
- Upload videos to multiple video Uploading sites
- Get social signals, embeds and shares from multiple Social Media sites
- Create authority link wheels
- Get YouTube video views, likes, comments and subscribers (crowd marketing)
- Search and download creative common images and videos
- Multi-threaded, light weight and fast
- And Much More
Syndicating video is an extremely effective way of drastically improving your brand or business's reach and improving how many people know about your existence. However, it is critical that you don't use these syndication services to spam your company or products online. If used poorly, you can risk making your business look suspicious and unprofessional. You can also risk a search engine penalty if you use questionable SEO tactics when submitting your videos such as over-stuffing keywords and other metadata.
In summary, there are many video marketing software packages available and the above are merely a sampling of the most popular. As you can see, video marketing is a very valuable tool for internet marketers. They simplify the process, add important features that enhance your online marketing, automate much of the process and most importantly, they improve your ability to increase your search engine rankings, grow your brand, advertise your product and increase your success as an internet marketer.

If you snagged the update to Google Search yesterday, you're probably ecstatic that you now have some of the features Android users have been enjoying including Google Now capabilities. You may have also noticed that it likes to use location services like crazy. If that bothers you or you're worried about conserving some battery when you don't need Google Search polling your location, you can disable location reporting within the app.
Here's how:
- Launch the Google Search app for iPhone or iPad.
- Tap on the Settings icon in the upper right hand corner.
- Now tap on Privacy.
- Scroll down and towards the bottom, turn Location Reporting to Off.
That's it. Google Search will now not report your location unless you want it to.
