You have signed up with our turnkey solution service and is now the owner of your turnkey store. You are taking charge of your business and your store launches only once. You want to use the launch as a chance to get as much traffic and attention as you can.
This post is all about getting traffic to your new store by targeting influencers and getting attention. We offer actionable tactics and provide six templates you can copy and paste to use for your campaigns. And at the end we share the most important things you should do as an established business to keep the momentum going.
Now let's start getting you some traffic.
1. Send free samples to Instagram influencers
Instagram is quickly becoming one of the most effective marketing channels for ecommerce merchants. A recent study found that Instagram gives brands 25% more engagement than any other social platform and our own analysis found that it generates a higher average order value than Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus.
It's also a great way to drive traffic and awareness for your store – especially if you know how to target influencers.
For the sake of example, let's say you want to start a company selling hair products online. How do you get attention for your store and products?
Get started by looking through Instagram for the popular accounts that may consider featuring your product to their hundreds of thousands of followers.
How do you find these popular accounts?
By searching through WEBSTA, a site that catalogues the most popular Instagram hashtags and users. By typing in "hairstylist" in the search bar, you get to see both the most popular related hashtags as well as users who have "hairstylist" in their usernames or bios.
You might also check out WEBSTA Hot, which features the most popular hashtags trending now.
It was by searching through WEBSTA that we discovered Steph Brinkerhoff, a professional wedding hair stylist and makeup artist based in Utah. Her Instagram handle is @hairandmakeupbysteph, and she has about 150,000 followers.
Look: In her bio, Steph features a link to her blog, Hair and Makeup by Steph. You can find there all sorts of advice on hairstyles.
And just as importantly, you can find above a link to her "Contact" page. It lists a phone number, email, and a contact form. From there, you can initiate contact.
Another effective way to target Instagram influencers is by using the Instagram app on your phone. You can check the "popular page" which contains photos that are trending and have thousands of likes. Look for photos related to your industry and click over to the user's profile to see if she has a large audience and a way to get in touch.
For example, here's how that might look if you sold pet-related products.
Typically if a popular account has contact information – especially an email address – in her bio, it usually means she's open to product placements, partnerships and advertising opportunities.
Now when it comes to reaching out, it's important to be strategic about this. Not every Instagram user with a lot of followers is willing to feature products from users. We're certainly not recommending that you target Steph or nala_cat to get your product featured. Instead, this simply describes the journey of the targeting process.
What might a reach-out campaign look like? If a business address can be found on a contact page, send along a sample directly and attach a note to describe the product.
And if there's no actual address, you might send a note to ask whether the Instagram user might be willing to accept samples. Here's a template you can use:
Hi Janet,
My name is Lauren, and I've been a big fan of your Instagram posts.
You might be interested to know that I've recently launched an online store around (the type of product you sell). I'm particularly proud of (the product that you're sending), and wonder if you might accept if I pass along a sample of it. If you like it as much as I do, perhaps you'll consider sharing it with your audience?
Please let me know if there's a business address for me to send a package to, and if you have any questions at all.
2. Reach out to bloggers and press
There are other people you can reach out to: bloggers, vloggers, and press. The size of their audience varies, but some of them have large followings, and the process of reaching out to them is quite similar to reaching out to Instagram influencers.
The best way to find bloggers is simply by looking for them on Google.
On Youtube, you might try out keywords like: "hair advice," "hair tips," and "hair care." Then see whether the makers of the videos post regularly on aspects of writing about hair products.
You may have to play around with your keywords to find the people who may be interested in your product. There are many people who review products on video part-time or for a living.
Another tried and true method for getting traffic is landing your business in the press. Now you might not get covered from very big newspapers and sites, but you have a better chance of getting press from local news sites and community papers. You have a good chance of being featured if you can tell a unique story, if you can talk about your product in interesting ways, and if you write a good pitch.
When reaching out to the press, a concise pitch is nearly always better than the long pitch because reporters see lots of pitches. If you'd like to get press attention, write a short and compelling email. Tell them about what makes you different, and try to pitch yourself as a local success story.
Just as it would be with an Instagram personality, getting coverage from a popular blog, from a vlogger, or from the press can drive a lot of sales to your store. Reach out to them just as you would to an Instagram personality to send them a sample and a short note.
What can you write to a blogger or a vlogger? We've put together this template to get you started.
Dear Hailey,
My name is Richard and I am a (your info) who also sells (your product). I'm a fan of your blog on (focus of the blog), and especially enjoyed a recent post on (focus of a recent blog post).
I just wanted to let you know that we've recently opened an online store to sell (your product). Our products are special for the following reasons (list two or three reasons why they're special).
I've sent a sample of (your product) the address listed on your contact page. If you love it as much as I do, perhaps you'll consider sharing with your audience? Please let me know if you're interested in learning anything at all about these. My direct number is: (direct number).
And to the press? You can pitch to be featured as a success story. Find the appropriate person at the paper of interest, and send them a note that might go like this:
Dear Mark,
My name is Dana and I am a local resident of (your town). I've recently started an online store selling (your product) and I wonder if (the paper) might be interested in this local story.
Not many people are yet selling online from (your town). This is a pretty new thing, and we hope to be big soon. We have an interesting story: (tell the story of your founding or the source of your products in two to three sentences.)
Please let me know if we can tell you anything more about our product and our story. Maybe other local residents can learn a few things about selling online.
All of these people have audiences, and getting their attention when you have just launched and are still novel may be your best shot at getting covered.
Note: You don't have to target the biggest and most successful people. Your chances of getting featured are better for people with smaller audiences, because they're not constantly swarmed by people who are looking for a feature. In fact, Chris Dammacco, who sells retro video games, has made a conscious decision to target Youtube vloggers with smaller audiences. Keep in mind that the loyalty of the audience matters almost as much as its size.
3. Post your store to reddit
The whole internet hangs out on reddit. In addition to its main page, which aggregates the most popular content, it also has thousands of niches called subreddits. You can find a subreddit on nearly any subject, for example, /r/bicycling, /r/scifi, or /r/corgi.
There are a few threads that you should be paying attention to that may help your business.
First, everybody should be browsing the /r/entrepreneur subreddit. With about 79,000 subscribers, it has lots of interesting tips and discussions on starting a business. You might also be interested in the related/r/smallbusiness thread as another source of general business advice.
Let's stick with hair products. Well, maybe you want to check out the /r/femalehairadvice thread. There's a lot of discussion on all aspects of haircare for girls.
Take a look also at related subreddits like /r/haircarescience, /r/curlyhair, or simply /r/hair. As we said, there are a lot of niche subreddits out there.
Make your posts very brief, displaying only the essence of what your new store is about. One example of a headline that you might use could be something like:
Who says that short hair can't be fancy? My store in Philadelphia makes accessories for guys with really short hair.
Make it snappy, catchy, and not very sales-y. You should also check out the Reddiquette guide to check out whether you're following reddit guidelines.
Pay attention also to the rules of your subreddit. They're always found in the sidebar to the right of the subreddit. Some subreddits don't allow promotional material – so posting what's basically an ad for your store is not allowed. If you post about your site to a place that doesn't want it, either you'll find that no one's upvoting your link, or in extreme cases you may even get banned from the subreddit. Read the rules.
4. Get friends and family to share
Are you at the age yet when all of your Facebook friends are posting pictures of their babies? Isn't it annoying?
Many people are sick of looking at baby photos, but you can probably get away with sharing your online store. People don't launch businesses too frequently, and so it'll probably be quite novel within your circle of friends to see you start your own business.
Do you know the site Upworthy? Of course you do. Upworthy articles are in everyone's Facebook feeds. Now did you know that its initial momentum was generated by friends and family. They set a goal of getting 1,000 Facebook fans by the end of the day of their launch date. It worked, and that's part of what gave them the initial traction to take off.
Reach out in a targeted way to your friends and family. You'll get away with it without risking irritation. On Facebook, talk about your store in an update.
Are there channels for talking to your extended family? Do they plan reunions on an email list? Send a note, and tell them about your new store.
Don't focus the ask on getting them to buy your products. You should instead offer them your products for free. They are your friends and family, after all.
Instead, ask them to share the store with their networks. These are people with whom you have social equity, and you won't ask for these kinds of favors very often. You'll have a higher rate of success than reaching out to strangers, and if enough of them share, that may give you sufficient momentum to keep a regular stream of customers.
What might that message look like?
Hey everyone,
Craig here. I'm really excited tell you all about a store I built online: (yourstore.com).
It sells (your product), and I'm really excited for it. If anyone's interested anything I sell, send me a note. I'll send you a few things for free :D
Would you share and spread the word about it? I'd really like to get some momentum going.
Add exclamation marks as required.
5. Pro-actively engage on Twitter
You don't need to start selling products before you engage with people on Twitter. There are a lot of ways to get on peoples' radars as a cool new store.
Blackbird Baking Company, a bakery in Toronto that sells fresh bread, managed to get over 500 followers before it opened its store in Toronto.
That's nothing to sneeze at. How did it get a few hundred followers pre-launch?
First, it generated some follow-backs by following select people on Twitter whom it determined may be interested in a new bakery. These include restaurateurs and self-declared bread enthusiasts in Toronto.
One tool that you can use to find relevant users is Followerwonk. Log in through Twitter, and you can search relevant keywords in bios and profiles.
It has also been following a disciplined tweeting strategy. Blackbird has been baking and distributing their breads around interested stores around Toronto, and have been uploading lots of pictures of breads to Instagram and Facebook. The pictures are mouthwatering – and shareable.
It also engaged very pro-actively with people who sent tweets about the local community. These topics included life in Toronto, great food there, and, of course, bread.
It has finally tweeted often about when the store would open, building anticipation.
And so when it finally opened, there were lots of interested people ready to coming knocking and buy its bread.
Here's the central strategy: Search Twitter for for keywords related to your business and then look for chances to help people or add value in a way that lacks a sales pitch. Let people discover themselves why your tweets are valuable.
6. Write a blog post featuring people with audiences and send it to them
"Remember that a person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language." – Dale Carnegie
Our final suggested tactic for getting traffic goes back to reaching out and connecting to people with big audiences, and bloggers in particular.
Instead of reaching out by sending a sample of your product, you might get traffic in a more roundabout way: By writing a blog post about them, and sending it to them in an email or via Twitter.
Yes, instead of waiting for them to feature you, you can feature them first.
You're going to be looking for the influencers in the lingerie industry anyway. Write up the top people you find and turn that into an easy blog post featuring the most popular Instagram users, bloggers, and vloggers. Heck, throw in major Twitter accounts in there, too.
Here are possible headlines your blog post can take:
- The 10 Most Important Hairstyle Bloggers You Should Be Following
- The 15 Twitter Accounts You Should Be Following to Discover New Hairstyles
- The 20 Instagram Accounts With the Prettiest Hairstyle Pictures
- The Five Youtube Personalities That Have the Best Tutorials on Hair
In the blog post, list them and come up with a short blurb discussing what they're about. Need an example of what that post might look like? See below.
Next, send the post to them through your Twitter account or to their email address, with a message like the following. If you send the post via Twitter, it's critically important to mention their handles, with a message like:
@sam, Just wanted to let you know that I love your tweets, and featured you in a list of the top (type of list): yourblogpost.com
And if you send an email, you might consider this template:
Hi Arthur,
My name's Hermione, and I just wanted to send you a short note to let you know that I've featured you in a blog post highlighting the most essential (vloggers/bloggers/Instagram/Twitter users) to follow for insights, along with (famous personality x) and (famous personality y).
Thanks for such great work!
Don't be too obvious that you're just trying to get their attention. As long as your blurbs are thoughtful, they'll be flattered. If they send it out to their network, all the better.
A store only gets launched once, and you won't again have an easy excuse to reach out to a lot of people. So do everything you can to get traffic and convert them into customers.
Once you've built a following, look toward other ways to establish yourself as an online store. These methods include mastering SEO, following a good content strategy, engaging with fans on social media, and spending money effectively on social media ads and on Google Adwords.
Good luck.

Since the first flower blossomed around 130 million years ago, life on earth hasn't been the same. From livening up our landscapes to giving us pungent perfumes, it seems like there are a thousand and one uses for these beautiful blooms.
But perhaps one of the best things about flowers isn't what they do, but what they can signify. For most of us, a red rose given to a sweetheart suggests amorous intentions. A bouquet of daffodils in February signals that spring is just around the corner.
With so much meaning in every blossom, it's no surprise that states also use the power of flowers to represent themselves. But which flower stands for which state?
State flowers
Ever wonder, "What is the state flower for California?" Or Nebraska? Or any other state for that matter? Well wonder no more because we've gathered all 50 state flowers in one pretty place.
Car insurance by state
If thinking about state flowers has you wondering about other state-specific info (like car insurance info, maybe?), we have a state-by-state guide to explain car insurance in your state. From required coverages to car insurance discounts, our state-by-state resource has everything you need to know about insurance and driving where you live. And as a (free) bonus, you can also find quirky facts and state-specific trivia.

It looks like Johnny Depp will be returning to his roots, albeit briefly. After months of wondering whether or not the actor would be appearing in the 21 Jump Street movie, based on the TV show that launched his career, Coming Soon reports that the actor is now confirmed to cameo in the flick. Last we heard, producers were working very hard to find time to fit the one-day shoot into Depp's schedule, and now it looks like everything worked out.
Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), the film tells the story of two young cops (Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum) who infiltrate a high school undercover. Alongside Hill and Tatum, Ice Cube, Brie Larson and Dave Franco star, with Rob Riggle in talks to play a villain. 21 Jump Street hits theaters on March 16th 2012.

G7 to 'move swiftly' on more Russia sanctions
WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States and other nations in the Group of Seven say they have agreed to "move swiftly" to impose additional economic sanctions on Russia in response to its actions in Ukraine.
In a joint statement released Friday night by the White House, the G-7 nations say they will act urgently to intensify "targeted sanctions." The statement says that the G-7 will also continue to prepare broader sanctions on key Russian economic sectors if Moscow takes more aggressive action.
The White House says U.S. sanctions could be levied as early as Monday.
The G-7 nations say they are moving forward on the targeted sanctions now because of the urgency of securing plans for Ukraine to hold presidential elections next month.

Why Google Is Not Going Away
Eric Jackson wrote in a Forbes article earlier this week that Google and Facebook might disappear in the next five years. Anything is possible. But his analysis of Google misses the mark.
I've written my own critiques of Google. But the big G is more on par with Microsoft, IBM and other perennial brands than with Myspace. Google may have its ups and downs, but it's not going anywhere.
Here's why:
Google is a utility, not a toy
Google isn't just a fun toy. It has become a utility for the vast majority of Internet users. It's a major driver of commerce for businesses. And it collects and redistributes data in a way that no other tool or site has been able to replicate.
Myspace wasn't a utility. It was a place where teenagers gathered to trade messages. Bing and Yahoo? They never approached the market share — or the effectiveness — needed to become as important.
Google has become a tool we constantly use. It's integrated into web browsers and phones, and now it's testing the waters of wearable computing. It powers the flow of content around the Internet. And it isn't going anywhere.
Social isn't a "new way of thinking"
Jackson says that Google's failure to move into social media (we can debate that) is a major weakness, because social media and the structures it creates are replacing search:
Why has Amazon done so little in social? And Google? Even as they pour billions into the problem, their primary business model which made them successful in the first place seems to override their expansion into some new way of thinking.
There are a few problems with this statement:
- Social isn't replacing search. It can't, any more than a walnut can replace a bicycle. Social and search are completely different: Social media generates content and relationships. Search engines help us sift through content and relationships. There's very little overlap.
- Social media isn't new. It has been around since AOL, CompuServe and Prodigy. Truthfully, it's been around since humans could communicate. It's not disruptive. The ways innovators apply it is disruptive. But that application doesn't threaten Google.
- Google is desperately clawing at social media because the publicly traded company needs revenue growth, and because it wants to tap social media as another portion of its search algorithm.
Social really does not pose a threat to Google. If Facebook were to introduce a first-rate search engine, that might reduce Google's market share. But even that wouldn't drive it out of existence.
Even with its post-IPO brain drain, Google has an unparalleled ability to attract and retain top-rate engineers. Google is a unique engineer's paradise, if you like the environment there. Between its culture and the mountain of cash upon which it sits, Google can have first or second pick of the best talent in the industry.
Until it becomes a truly entrenched, mature corporation with all of the baggage that brings, no one can really touch Google's talent pool.
What could destroy Google
There is one potential Google-killer out there: Legal action.
Google's moving into dangerous territory and could end up getting carved up through government action:
- It dominates search, and isn't afraid to use that dominance to acquire some competitors, crush others and generally move the industry as it sees fit.
- It has access to mountains of analytics data across different online channels, and can potentially use that data in ways that should give regulators hives.
- Its promotion of Google+ seems awfully similar to Microsoft's promotion of Internet Explorer 2001-2005. It has locked out other social networks when it controls more than 85 percent of the search world. That alone might force antitrust action.
The federal government could, if forced, order Google to break up into separate units around search, social, applications and email. Or it could force the company to completely abandon some initiatives. That would be nearly unprecedented. But then again, so is Google.

About the Bond Construction Program
Thank you for your support, Oceanside Voters!
On June 3, 2008, Oceanside voters approved a bond measure, Proposition H, authorizing the Oceanside Unified School District to issue up to $195 million in general obligation bonds for school facility improvements, enabling the district to complete the repairs and modernization effort established under the Proposition G bond construction program to provide high quality facilities for all Oceanside students.
To oversee the expenditure of Proposition H bond funds, a Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC) has been established to assure that bond funds are spent for the purpose they were intended. Committee membership, meetings and bylaws provide more detailed information about the CBOC.
Proposition H bond funds combined with available local, state, and federal grants, state matching bond funds, and joint-use funding will provide the funds needed to improve the following schools:
- Elementary schools: Del Rio, Ditmar, Garrison, Ivey Ranch, Libby, McAuliffe, Mission, North Terrace, Pacifica, Palmquist, Reynolds, San Luis Rey, and Santa Margarita.
- Middle schools: Jefferson and Lincoln.
- High schools: El Camino, Oceanside, Ocean Shores
- Alternative: Clair Burgener
Additional modernization projects to be completed at El Camino and Oceanside High where 2000 bond funds were previously expended.
The schools will receive repairs, modernization, upgrades, expansion and new construction as warranted by enrollment and facility usage needs to provide equitable facilities for all students. A progress report of projects underway is available under Current Projects.
The 2008 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), developed by district staff, the district's architect-of-record, and the bond construction managment team, served as the foundation document to identify the scope of work and associated cost estimates for each of the projects. The plan is considered a 'living document" in order to maintain its relevance in light of changes to educational program needs and state and local building code requirements. The district has recognized the need for a major overhaul of the plan and is in the midst of developing a Long Range Facilities Master Plan.
Proposition G, a $125 million bond measure passed in June 2000, enabled the district to build two new elementary schools (Nichols and Foussat) and one middle school (Chavez), to entirely renovate two of the oldest elementary schools (Laurel and South Oceanside), to complete renovations and new construction at Oceanside High School, El Camino High School and Jefferson Middle School, and to start renovations to Del Rio Elementary School. A detailed description of Proposition G completed projects is available under Finished Projects.

Furries? So hot right now. Also hot: videos! We've seen Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts excel in stills, but in video, it's quite moving. In this new gameplay clip, Banjo and Kazooie collect coconuts, traverse bright green terrain, craft custom contraptions and pilot various vehicles to the constant din of sproing-y and boing-y sound effects. The eyes? Googly. The characters? Fuzzy. The game? So clearly Rare.
Update: Apparently, this is what they call B-roll footage, not an officially sanctioned trailer for the game. We think it's just a spectacular selection of gameplay, but please note this is "raw" unedited video.

Hey guys- I am definitely interested in continuing the league, but may need someone to take over as commish. We are expecting our 2nd child in early April, so that will severely cut into the time I have during baseball season.
Is anyone interested in being commish? You would have to coordinate with the other owners to see who is coming back, fill any open teams, get the keeper lists from all teams and enter those players and their values into Yahoo before the auction. (I have printed out everyone's team and 2011 values, so I can get you those lists.)
Let me know if you are interested.

The Taliban have claimed responsibility for a deadly car bombing near the heavily fortified Indian embassy in the heart of Afghanistan's capital city early Thursday, killing at least 12 people and wounding 87, according to reports.
The blast ripped through a market building across the street from the Kabul embassy, which was targeted in an attack that killed more than 58 people last year, Reuters reported. Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in a statement that the an Afghan man was targeting the Indian embassy when he blew up his SUV.
Violence in Afghanistan has spiked in recent months with Kabul targeted for bombings on numerous occasions. The latest blast comes one day after the U.S. marked its eighth anniversary of the Afghan invasion, which was sparked by the Sept. 11 attacks.

Registration Day for Kiteboard World Cup Panama
Nitro City and Punta Chame, Panama, welcome the inaugural stop of the 2014 PKRA World Tour. This first-time event will showcase the best Freestyle kiteboarders as they converge on the extreme sports mecca of Nitro City, Panama, to do battle for the 2014 world title.
The competition location at Nitro City Action Sports Resort offers everything for an amazing event. Apart from the excellent kiteboarding conditions with small chop, warm water, and steady wind, the venue provides a motorcross track, skate park, and cable park to keep even the most ambitious rider busy all day long.
As first stop of the tour season, there is an exceptionally stacked field of athletes. Competitors will be hungry for points toward the world title, but will first need to battle through the qualifying rounds to qualify for the remaining 10 spots in the main event.
Today's registration drew the regular tour veterans alongside many competitors from South America and beyond. In total, 50 riders represent 18 countries, making the pool of talent deep. Overall, 39 men and 11 women have registered to compete for the $42,000 in prize money.
Present in the men's division is a large contingency of Brazilian and Dominican riders, who are always pushing their level year after year. Most notably, the young Carlos Mario from Brazil has a lot of pressure following his rookie win at the last tour stop and having secured an international sponsorship deal.
In an unfortunate turn of events, current World Champion Alex Pastor dislocated his shoulder while training this morning and will not be able to compete here to defend his title. Liam Whaley is out this event with a rib injury, and former world champion Youri Zoon is not present either. For the women, Bruna Kajiya returns after suffering a knee injury last season and will almost certainly be battling against the top females to regain her title run.
This absence of many of the top male riders leaves the door open for the coveted top five spots. Tour veterans such as Marc Jacobs, Christophe Tack, Alberto Rondina and Reno Romeu all have a good opportunity to be in contention for the title. However, it won't be easy with 5x world champion Aaron Hadlow and the incredibly talented crew of Brazilian riders en force.
Conditions for tomorrow look good, with the strongest winds expected in the early morning and late afternoon. The event will begin with the men's qualifiers with a 6:30am riders meeting and a 7:00am first possible start. At 11:00, the opening ceremony will take place and if conditions allow, the main event will begin in the afternoon. Stay tuned. to the Facebook and Twitter feeds for the latest results and start times for the live web cast, which can be viewed here.

On Monday evening, Global Green USA wrangled up a few famous folks — Carol Kane, Donna Karan, Maggie Grace, classically trained "Super Troopers" thesp Brian Cox, remarkably coiffed weatherman Sam Champion, and the always impassioned Judith Light to name a few — to honor the recipients of the 13th annual Sustainable Design Awards in New York City.
This year's esteemed honorees — individuals and organizations committed to "tearing down the walls that stand in the way of a sustainable and secure world through their innovative design" — included Tony Award-winning playwright and V-Day founder Eve Ensler (Organizational Design Award); green-minded New York City real estate dynasty, the Rudin family (Green Building Design Award); and Greif, the company behind a collapsible water-transporting backpack for those living in developing countries called PackH2O (Industrial Design Award).
In addition to saluting some truly exceptional work and raising precious moola, the Sustainable Design Awards also provided Global Green's fearless leader Matt Petersen with a venue in which to announce a big new project.
At last year's event in which Sprint, Starbucks, and Adrian Grenier were among the honorees (no Entertainment Design Award this year, eh?), the organization launched NOLA Wise, a comprehensive home weatherization program that joined one of several Global Green-managed rebuilding/revitalization efforts in New Orleans. This year, Global Green formally announced a scheme focused on rebuilding efforts in neighborhoods throughout New York and New Jersey that were hard hit by Superstorm Sandy. Under the leadership of Petersen, Global Green has been instrumental in the green rebuilding efforts in a ravaged, post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans. The organization hopes to build on its experiences in New Orleans and have a similar impact in the areas most devastated by Sandy.
Thus far, Global Green's plan of attack for aiding Sandy-affected communities will be comprised of three distinct initiatives:
Solar for Sandy: A partnership program with photovoltaic manufacturers, installers, and others to provide back-up solar systems for community centers, women's shelters, and schools in hard-hit neighborhoods.
The Search for Citizen Sandy: An open call for Citizen Entrepreneur Challenge: Citizen Sandy, a program in which individuals are invited to submit their post-Sandy green rebuilding ideas. The winning idea is provided with $1,000 in seed funding and technical expertise from Global Green. More about the program and nomination process can be found here.
Greening Schools and Neighborhoods: "Taking our leadership and expertise to the planning level to look at infrastructure and how neighborhoods can come back stronger than ever with a call for proposals — funded by EPA — from devastated cities and boroughs." More on Global Green's Green Schools program can be found here.
In addition to aiding communities struggling to rebuild after Sandy, Global Green's motivation is centered around protecting areas affected by rising sea levels brought on by climate change:
Global Green USA remains committed to protecting coastal cities like NY from sea level rise by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. An estimated 150 million Americans live in or near coastal cities and we must also address the urgent need to fight climate change and better protect coastal cities at risk from sea level rise, which worsens storm surge in severe weather events.
Elaborates Petersen on the Global Green blog:
We need to help New York, New Jersey, and other devastated areas rebuild following Sandy with a focus first on helping those in greatest need and at risk. We must also address the urgent need to fight climate change and better protect coastal cities at risk from sea level rise, which worsens storm surge in severe weather events.
Why? 150 million Americans live in or near coastal cities.
A little over a year ago, I stood at the end of Manhattan in Battery Park to launch Global Green's I AM campaign. We held signs reading "I AM NEW YORK" to send a signal that we are all connected, and need to all be concerned with what happens to communities thanks to sea level rise and climate change. Our PSA was launched to help people realize we need to stand in solidarity to push for action on climate change.
At that same spot we stood a year ago, 12 to 14 foot storm surge inundated Lower Manhattan. The message of our campaign is more poignant and important than ever. With extreme weather becoming the new norm and the impact of climate change on storms like Sandy finally being covered in the news, we can refocus on the urgent need to protect coastal cities from the threat of storm surge as a result of global warming.
Sea level rise is no joke and it must be taken seriously. We can — and must — prepare for the future.
Although I'm guessing more particulars on Global Green's Sandy rebuilding efforts will come in time, you can read an outline of the plan of attack here. You can also, of course, donate to help support the organization's post-storm initiatives in New York and New Jersey.

It's time to get those tomatoes going, not to mention your spring flowers and water-frugal native plants. Here are our favorite destinations for this time of year.
690 N. Orange Grove Blvd., Pasadena
626.796.4355, burkardnurseries.com
Third-generation plantsman Frank Burkard Jr. runs this fine, if not downright posh, nursery. Besides a crack staff, Mr. B also has an excellent selection of native plants, fruit trees, vegetables and annuals, as well as a riotous selection of hard-to-find tomatoes and an extensive variety of spring bulbs that thrive in this climate. Did we mention seeds, garden ephemera, pots and hand tools? Oh, and the roses…heirlooms, climbers, English and hybrid teas, too! Burkard is a respected horticultural authority and a frequent guest on gardening shows—garden clubs even drive from from San Diego to seek his advice and buy his wares.
California Cactus Center
216 S. Rosemead Blvd., East Pasadena
626.795.2788, cactuscenter.com
On a parched stretch on the east side of town, California Cactus is an oasis of succulents, cacti and tillandsias (that's air plants to the rest of us). This local fixture has been growing pricklies for 35 years, and hundreds of its 1,500 rotating species are fantastic show pieces, artfully stages in striking pottery, which is also sold either with or without the plants. The helpful staff answer questions about propagation, transplanting and landscaping. Even if you think you don't like cacti or succulents, this eye-popping place is a must-see.
3555 Chaney Trail Rd. (off Loma Alta), Altadena
This is the only place in Southern California to shop for camellias and azaleas—and we're not exaggerating. Located at the foot of a great hiking trail, this family operation has six acres covered with thousands of camellias, many of which the Nuccios have hybridized themselves since opening in 1947. Ask for recommendations: Do you like big leaves? Ruffled petals? Variegated? Fragrant? Have a favorite color? These folks are helpful and knowledgeable. The seasonal hours extend in spring and summer, so it's best to call before visiting, and make sure to wear walking shoes.
3115 E. Sierra Madre Blvd., East Pasadena
This mom-and-pop-and-two-daughters-and-son nursery is another local fave. It's a big one, so don't be in a rush. You'll find gaggles of trees, roses, shrubs, vines, natives, annuals and vegetables, as well as a mondo shade garden on the east side of the parking lot. The region's best hydrangeas are here, with giant root stock. Got mulch? They do, and they'll deliver truckloads or less for a modest fee.
San Gabriel Nursery & Florist
632 S. San Gabriel Blvd., San Gabriel
626.286.3782, sgnursery.com
The granddaddy of local nurseries, this place opened in 1923, and it continues today as a family-owned business, despite threats from encroaching warehouse stores. It carries eye-popping year-round rose selections, bare-root fruit trees (go, dwarfs!), cacti, succulents and orchids, plus tools, pest management and hard-to-find seeds. You'll get a 10% discount if you belong to any of the local botanical gardens.

The New Year's Eve festivities started a little early at Rose Hill Gym.
Fordham was able to end 2012 on a high note after dispatching Monmouth 82-71 last night, thanks to a spirited second-half comeback in which the Rams outscored the Hawks, 54-38.
"I think the difference was we came to life in the second half," Fordham coach Tom Pecora said. "[This] was another way of learning how to put a game away. It was gut-check time for us. It was important for us to come out, to be down at the half and show that we can come back into a game."
The biggest difference from the first half was the play of Chris Gaston and Bryan Smith. Gaston, one of the team's few upperclassmen, scored 15 of his game-high 19 points in the second half after Pecora turned up the heat on him in the locker room.
"I told Chris he had to take the game over at halftime, and he did a good job in the second half of getting position to make good plays," Pecora said. "He responded and that's key."
Gaston also rallied his fellow Rams to pick up a victory that marks the second straight year Fordham (4-10) has notched a winning non-conference record at home.
"At halftime, we all huddled up and said we have to protect our house," Gaston said. "We showed a lot of courage and played a lot harder than we did in the first half."
And on a night when the world watched the ball drop in Times Square, seemingly every ball Smith shot in the second half dropped as well.
"When Bryan Smith makes shots, we win a lot of games," Pecora said. "You should have heard what I was saying to him at halftime to get him motivated."
Whatever Pecora said to Smith worked. After shooting just 1-for-6 from the field in the first half, the sophomore guard erupted to go 4-for-6 on 3-point shots in the second half for a season-high 18 points.
"I just know that if I miss a shot, I'm going to make the next one," Smith said. "I just keep thinking positive for the next shot. I never lost confidence; I know I'm a good shooter."
In addition to Smith and Gaston, Fordham received strong performances from sophomore center Ryan Canty and freshman guard Mandell Thomas.
Canty, who has been dealing with back issues all season long, provided quality minutes off the bench and dominated in the paint, finishing with seven points and three blocks to go along with his game-high 14 rebounds.
"Canty did a great job. I thought in the second half that was huge for us," Pecora said. "Canty's been lost for the last couple of games. It's nice to see signs of life there."
Once again, just over a week after a monster block that saved the Rams at home against Siena, Thomas dazzled with two blocks against the Hawks (5-8) that caused the crowd to ooh and aah.
"He's done a pretty good job defensively," Pecora said. "Obviously another game where he made a bigtime block late in the game and you see his explosiveness. He's a sick, freakish athlete."
Fordham will head to play Ole Miss on the road Friday before returning home on Jan. 9 to start Atlantic 10 play against Duquesne.

You know your hair CAN grow longer, but something is hindering it – something you just can't quite put your finger on. In this case, the first place you should look for clues is your scalp. Is it dry? greasy? flaky? Any of these can be a sign of either simply a need for a change in your hair regimen, diet or a medical issue. Think of your hair as trees, grass, or flowers and your scalp as the soil. If the soil isn't cared for, the plants can not flourish. If you don't take time to ensure that you have a healthy scalp, how can you expect to have long, healthy hair? You can't. Many spend an endless amount of time on their hair to get it to grow long, but they neglect their scalp which then leads to time wasted. Before you embark on a long hair journey, you must first get to the source. First, look at your scalp and how your hair behaves. Is your scalp dry and flaky, but your hair greasy? Or are both your hair AND scalp dry? Is your scalp greasy, but your hair dry? Or are they both greasy? Dry Scalp A dry, flaky scalp accompanied by dry hair can be your body's way of telling you that it is in dire need of nutrients. In order to combat this, it is recommended that you drink more water and supplement your diet with foods rich in zinc, iron, omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin A, and B complex vitamins. Zinc Zinc is required for the growth and repair of tissues throughout the body so a healthy amount will do wonders for your scalp, but a lack of it could be detrimental to your health and show on your scalp and hair. Whole grains, seafood, meats, poultry and nuts are rich in Zinc and are highly recommended if you need need a nutrient boost. Iron Iron's role in the body is to help in the transportation of oxygen from the lungs to the cells. Because the scalp and skin are highly dependent on oxygen, this nutrient is vital in promoting and maintaining healthy skin. Foods high in iron are green vegetables, fruit, beans, grains, and cereals. Omega 3 Fatty Acids Omega 3 fatty acids aid in moisturizing your skin from the inside. Cold water fish are an excellent source of omega 3 fatty acids. Vitamin A Vitamin A aids in the synthesis of protein. Because hair is mostly made up of protein (roughly 97%), a lack of Vitamin A could mean a decrease in the production of the protein needed for growing hair. B Complex B complex vitamins increase circulation and increases the life span of cells. a lack of B complex can lead to dry, cracking irritated skin. Breads, nuts, dairy, eggs, and liver are high in B complex. Before attempting to address the problem on your own, it is best to visit a medical professional so that he or she can address exactly what you are deficient in and establish a diet plan to eliminate the problem if it becomes serious. It is recommended, however, that you take a daily multivitamin to prevent nutrient deficiencies and stay healthy. A few quick fixes to mask the problem until you everything right diet-wise are hot oil treatments, apple cider vinegar rinses, and/or a hair steamer. One big cause of dry hair and dry scalp for relaxed ladies is a lack of chelating. Chelating is the process of removing mineral buildup from the scalp. When one relaxes his or her hair, specifically with a no lye relaxer, some of the mixture can clog your pores and cause dryness while at the same time preventing your body from transferring nutrients to your hair. Most people mistake and confuse this with product build up and try to treat it with a clarifying shampoo. A clarifying shampoo will not do anything at all to remedy the situation like a chelating shampoo. Chelating shampoos are also recommended for people who live in hard water areas. All chelating shampoos are not advertised as chelating. In order to scope out undercover chelating shampoos in your favorite brands, look for shampoos with EDTA as one of the main ingredients. Dry scalp and Oily hair Having a dry scalp, but oily hair is an unusual, but not uncommon occurrence. The most common cause is an allergic reaction/ sensitivity to shampoo. If this problem isn't a common issue to you and is something that sprung up from nowhere, it could signify that your scalp has a pH imbalance. To combat this, most women go in search of the many hair products that help to balance the pH of the scalp. One homemade remedy, however, is baking soda. Using baking soda in place of strong, irritating shampoos is a good alternative for people with this problem. Baking soda is known for its ability to neutralize the pH of substances and can do the same for your scalp. Oily scalp Oily scalp and oily hair signifies an overproduction of oils and can lead to build up if left untreated. Remedying this issue, however, is simpler than the others. A simple clarifying shampoo whenever needed and washing with sulfate shampoo should be enough to remedy the issue. Oily scalp and dry hair Like dry scalp and oily hair, this issue is just as unusual but not at all uncommon. Oily scalp and dry hair can be a sign of clogged pores or a hormonal imbalance. Clogged Pores Clogged pores could be caused by a lack of washing or a lack of washing properly. Product that was not washed away builds up on the scalp and prevent oils and nutrients from being transported to the hair strands. For people in this scenario, a simple clarifying shampoo followed by a light leave in conditioner should moisturize the hair and remove build up. Hormonal Imbalance This problem is common in people with a hormonal imbalance, specifically teens because their hormones are still adjusting. For people who are out of their teens, it is recommended that they seek medical help so that a medical professional can address the issue and do what needs to be done to fix it. Pay attention to your scalp. Your skin is the last to receive any nutrients, but the first to show signs of deficiency. Knowing your scalp will help you learn more about your skin and its needs and help you prevent any problems that could hinder your growth. Getting to the source is the first step in solving the problem.

With recent DDoS incidents related to wikileaks, I can't help but feel that pretty much all sites online are very vulnerable to such attacks. Visa, MasterCard (to name a few) have shut down because of this.
So my questions are:
- Is DDoS such a powerful form of attack?
- What can a company do to deal with this situation?
EDIT: I think I might have phrased my question too "n00bishly". I know what a DDoS is (from wikipedia and other sites).
My real question is: Why are those Big companies NOT applying anti-DDOS techniques? Don't tell me that Paypal and MasterCard are not afraid of service down or attacks. I have looked over the cost of some of these solutions, but they don't seem that expensive at all compared to how much Paypal or VISA makes a year. The real question is why are they so unprepared? ( Or is the scale of the DDoS that much bigger than what has been expected?)

Yes, you do.
As the social media world keeps reminding us, every time we post and tweet, we are establishing our personal brand. And with so many online channels focusing on photos plus text—if not photos exclusively—you simply have to be able to come up a clean, clear headshot to put a face—that being your good-looking face--on your brand.
Here at Special Events, the web platform we switched to earlier this year not only requires at least one image for many type of articles we post, but much bigger photos than we used to pester you to send. (We used to ask for headshots that were 30KB, but now we need at least 1 MB.)
As Madame Editor, I suggest you avoid a selfie. Because they always look like selfies. We talk about business issues, and so we don't want anything that looks too much as though it was made by loving hands at home. Such photos suggest either that you don't really care about your profession or that you don't have enough in your own marketing budget to get a decent professional headshot.
So spend the money and get a good headshot. Then get ready to go viral.
(This great headshot is from White Balance Photography. Those who know me know this photo makes me look better than I actually do.)

Microhousing: A Lived and Learned Experience
This online-only article is a supplement to the Fall 2017 print edition of Home Energy Magazine.
September 05, 2017
Living within your means has always been prudent—but what happens when you take this to an extreme? Microhousing has become more and more popular over the last few years, receiving more time in articles, television shows, and other media as an alternative to the common suburban home. Much of my design work has been at small scale, from cabins to ranger stations, but I had not yet dealt with the smallest of living spaces: the microhouse. As though she had read my mind, Leah Hodgson, a colleague of mine, mentioned one day that she was living in a microhouse built on a 5-foot x 8-foot trailer bed. She describes the experience of designing, building, and living in this space in the story below. This story convinced me to purchase the microhouse and develop a competition to renovate it for the Second-Year Architecture Studio that I coteach at Virginia Tech.

If you ask a dozen people why so many young girls are getting into the game of golf these days, you're likely to get a dozen different answers. Some will credit increased television exposure, or golf's around-the-world popularity, or today's equipment technology, or the number of incredibly talented players on the LPGA Tour, or maybe even golf becoming an Olympic sport in 2016.
Whatever the reason, the bottom line is that more young women are attracted to the game than ever before-despite dominant players Annika Sorenstam and Lorena Ochoa putting away their clubs to have families. It's pretty obvious that more parents are encouraging their daughters to check out the game, hoping they'll get hooked.
A new generation of stars has stepped up: Yani Tseng, at age 23 becoming the youngest player to win five major championships, including the Wegmans LPGA; Lexi Thompson, who at age 12 became the youngest to qualify for the U.S. Women's Open and at 16 became the youngest player ever to win an LPGA event, the 2011 Navistar Classic; and Michelle Wie, who made the 36-hole cut in the 2003 Kraft Nabisco Championship at age 13, youngest ever to do so in a tour event.
Thompson, still a teenager at 17, has turned everybody's head, even that of golf great Nancy Lopez. "I think she's the real deal," Lopez said, "and there are not that many who come out like she does and for (her parents) to keep her doing her school stuff and playing on the LPGA Tour. She's that good, and I think she's going to dominate eventually. Lexi has a good head on her shoulders."
Like Thompson, most or all of the LPGA's best players started swinging golf clubs when they were so young they still loved watching TV shows like "Dora the Explorer."
According to the LPGA's website, both Wie and Natalie Gulbis took up the game when they were 4, two years younger than was Yani Tseng, now the tour's top player. Cristie Kerr, Stacy Lewis and Morgan Pressel started playing when they were 8, Paula Creamer when she was 10.
Of course, golf is not a game that appeals to everyone. Lopez said none of her three daughters really got into the game, despite their mom's 48 tour victories. "My oldest (plays)," she said in a phone interview, "but she doesn't play a bunch. She has a real job, so she has to work."
Of course, Lopez hoped her children would take golf more seriously.
"I wanted them to try it, and they weren't interested," she said. "You can't make them like it, and I wasn't going to make them play the game just because I played it. And I think nowadays kids don't have the time to spend on the golf course unless they have friends that play. I don't think there's anybody who kind of likes golf; you either love it or hate it."
Given the incredible number of young female stars playing professional golf worldwide now, love seems to be winning out over hate. "I think they have a great influence," Lopez said. "You see all these little girls coming out with their parents, and their parents try to introduce them to golf and they find somebody they can kind of relate with.
"A lot of little girls come out and watch Paula (Creamer). They want somebody to follow, and they can connect with somebody like Paula or Yani, who's a great little player and a great person."
As Commissioner Michael Whan has said repeatedly, the LPGA Tour has gone "global." Given all that talent from all those countries, it is quite true, and Lopez says that's a good thing.
"The (number of) international players is not a problem," Lopez said. "It's definitely good for the game. Everything is international now-business, life and golf.
"Look at all the Korean players. They're just allreally good people, and they play the game with a lot of integrity and sportsmanlike conduct and we just need to root for them, too."
No doubt the global golf fire is inspiring many kids all over the United States, and no doubt it will not only keep burning but grow. Darlene Sommer, the director of golf at Champion Hills Country Club in Victor, says that's a given.
"We're seeing more (young girls playing) because of role models, like Nancy Lopezes and Paula Creamers," Sommer said. And, she added, especially Creamer now. "The kids are brought to her, and she's very good with the kids. She really does pay attention to them when she goes to tournament tour sites, and I think a lot of it is her pink (golf clothes) and pink panther theme. She dresses the part; she's into makeup and all the things little girls are into."
With Creamer and other players inspiring young girls to fall in love with golf, many more young are staying with the game, which often can be difficult in this day and age.
Our Lady of Mercy High School golf coach Julie Odenbach put it simply: "Whatever it takes to get them interested in golf. And they don't need a lot of lessons. They usually pick it up pretty easily. Girls want to have friends to play with." She agrees with Sommer: "Golf is social."
Other players on the tour also go out of their way to inspire youngsters to take up the game. Danielle Fuss, a star player at Mercy High, puts Gulbis at the top of her list.
"Every year when they come to Locust Hill, a bunch of the (LPGA) players go to Oak Hill and play the course there," said Fuss, whose parents are members at Oak Hill. "(Gulbis) hit balls next to me on the range, and I got to talk to her. And the next year she was on the putting green at Oak Hill. I was there putting, too, and she came up to me and asked me if I remembered her. That was really neat."
Fuss said she started playing golf when she was 4. "My dad played, and I just picked up a club and have been playing ever since."
She plans to play college golf, hopeful-ly at a Division I school, but at this point she doesn't want to play professionally. "I would be a teaching pro instead of just playing," she said.
Then there's Maddie McCrary, a high school star in Wylie, Texas, who started taking golf lessons at age 5 when a neighbor introduced her to the sport.
"My parents took me to a spring-break golf camp, and I fell in love with it," she said. "No, my parents do not play."
McCrary, who will be a junior next fall, has won several tournaments and is high on some prominent Division I colleges' recruiting lists. Her goal is to play D-1 college golf and then move on to the LPGA Tour.
"I watch (the LPGA) a lot," she said, "how I can learn from it-how they hit it, how to compare my swing to their swing."
Sommer's junior program starts for girls at age 5. "And every once in a while, a parent will sneak in a 4-year-old if they can," she said. "I think 7 or 8 years is a very good age, but if they want to and the parents are pushing them, then 5 is a good age."
Odenbach agreed that the key is getting a young girl interested in golf and keeping her there.
"Take her out to the driving range one time, let her hit some shots and see if it's something that excites her," Sommer said. "The key for parents is to make sure they go with them, even take them to the putting green and play little putting greens. And once they learn this game, it's a game for life." ï®

I wonder if there's any collected information on this?
I'm not sure which section this belongs in but the first image I found was vintage Comic
and since the Comics over the years have probably been a vaster source of material
there might be more in them,
however differing it may be ?
Has anyone spotted any obscure bits on CYBERTRON Alt. MODES while perusing favorite older comics?
I'm looking for more but I'm starting with Optimus: image 1
from Teletran1 wiki out of U.K. comics
I'm not really sure about this one but it read 'before the Decpeticon Autobot war' when discussing it.
Possibly images 1 and 2 are not related modes since he was re-built into Prime according to G1 image 1 would be the rebuild - ?
And some bit of a storyline showing when he was a dock worker:image 2
But I couldn't find yet the stills of this that I would have liked to use.
D.F. ventured into this in with his designs remembering this sequence properly
The mega-mile spaceway bridge
^ more smileys after the sequence
regarding the seekers alt modes: super excellent image 3
and BECAUSE IT'S BASED ON this OLD MODE D.F.'s newer matching take on Bot mode: image 4
couldn't help throwing in the custom someone did: image 5
I mean to be looking for OLDER stuff but
I have to put in -- because it entertains me so much: image 6 Soundwave as an 8-track player?
Thanks Don!
Are there any sequences of Cybertron form TFs in the older Japanese material?? That would be really interesting.
(1 more question that occurred to me was Shockwave never re-formatted?)
This 1st Optimus would make a good toy

It's never too early to dive in… Getting ready for summer means more than just hitting the gym again after a long hiatus. Picking your swimsuit style is something that helps your summer and body take shape. Designers are inclined to think about past icons to create sultry new swimwear trends today. Here are some of our faves!
Laces and Straps: Thin lacy straps have evolved to thick edgy straps which can we worn out with a maxi skirt and lots of accessories!
High on Vintage: A high waist bottom with vintage print takes it back to a time when Marilyn Monroe defined sex appeal. Exaggerated gives a twist and fresh modern take.
Shuffle Ruffles: Ruffles have come a long way. Super feminine but now bold in neon colors.
Peek-a-boo Crochet: Started in the 30's glamour era and adapted in the 1970's hippie chic era the intricate detailing of peek-a-boo crochet is as detailed as it gets. Beautiful!
Animal Prints: Leopard is always chic. We never get sick of this print! Whether it's on a bag or shoe or bathing suit. (Growl) with hand gesture, super sexy.
Times have changed along with trends so leave the past behind and dive into Summer 2012. Even if it seems a little early!

When you miss that bus or subway, or if you're just in a hurry, one of your other options is to take a taxi. Of course, on busy streets a taxi may not be the most efficient method of travel, but at least it comes to you and hopefully, you won't have to wait too long.

I am not a native speaker, but it is absolutely clear that in your case meeting is a gerund, as it governs a direct object and it has no article.
Running in your case should in my opinion be used as "running" (quotation marks) , being just an indefinite idea of a grammatical object used like a proper noun. It's merely a name for a certain noun. But it is only an indefinite part of speech in this form.
Although English style books consider this verb use as a cliche being not recommended, I would turn better to the noun style and re-write it as a whole: It stands in connection to the running. In this form, the word running is a noun with all its functions implied. It may be used in general and/or actual, real sense (materialized) and have the plural formant -s at the end.
