Thank you for sharing your thoughts about direct mail in your area. I am glad to stop by your site and know more about direct mail.
Some of these concerns have been addressed by direct marketers by the use of individual "opt-out" lists, variable printing, and better-targeted list practices. Additionally, in order to avoid unwanted mailings, members of the marketing industry have established preference services that give customers more control over the marketing communications they receive in the mail.

Sadly, the arts are way behind on the message front. To do what your examples have done requires a lot of objective market intelligence about the needs and desires of precisely defined targets. But most arts organizations aim their messages at loosely defined targets and make assumptions about their needs and desires based on gut instinct and personal insider experience. That's why the language of arts marketing is such hackneyed, self-indulgent nonsense.

I'm really glad you're talking about the relationship between data and messaging and I hope you'll keep pounding that particular drum. As far as I'm concerned, collecting data and knowing how to use it for both message creation and message delivery is our only hope for developing new audiences.

Sure, maybe there isn't a competing production of Madama Butterfly in town, but there might be another theatrical or music production whose cost is lower and is valued as highly. We learned from focus groups with single ticket buyers that even though they would have loved to see our production, they could see 5 movies for the cost of one ticket to our show. Arts experiences tend to be categorized as discretionary spending in many people's budgets, and so if someone commits to spending a generous $200/month on arts/entertainment, the choices in a vibrant market can vary wildly. Someone might reason that they'll enjoy the free blues concert in the park as much as the night at the opera - and as a matter of fact, I had a few people share that the free concert sponsored by our local municipality (with nationally known performers on stage) was a much more desirable bet for people looking for something to do on a weekend - and so our $50/ticket price point on the average budget does have serious competition. Certainly, the uniqueness of the art experience, the desire for one kind of experience over another, may help motivate buying decisions to help fill houses - and yet at any given time, patrons in our market may have a range of theatrical (or other performing art) opportunities each week to choose from in a wide range of prices. Art consumers MAY buy on price when they have lots of choices and limits on what they can spend.

Additionally, availability of seats can also significantly impact price and urgency to buy: if you program an edgier, lesser known work but your venue's seating capacity is the same as ever, how do you confront the reality that seats are always going to be available because 450 people are not going to come to every performance, even though in your estimation, 200 is a great crowd? Our local baseball stadium was deemed by some to be "overbuilt" as there were very few sellout games in this market. (Football here is a different story.) But the point is: pricing the arts is a challenge.Michellehttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5109739097027474073.post-83852352787450806832012-09-03T05:21:00.188-06:002012-09-03T05:21:00.188-06:00Amazing post to share.

But I think the approach suggested might really problematic and dangerous.
As starting point, let's agree we are talking about a major symphony orchestra (otherwise they would neither program Skrjabin festivals nor Beethoven IX). The bulk of the programming is then week-to-week subscription concerts and that's a huge machine to run. Some of these concerts might be blockbuster but many will be hard to sell. What to do?
Create smart subscription packages. Sell the subscriptions on the blockbusters. Insert the "risky" concerts into the subscription and accept the fact that they wont sell as well.
Then to marketing budget allocation: You can only reach the awareness of the market with let's say 5 campaigns each year. The subscription campaign (featuring block busters) is certainly one if not two of those campaigns. The Skrjabin Festival would most certainly be one because that will help brand your orchestra as the "real" thing. Then you might want to focus on some of your entry-level productions (holiday concerts, summer park concert) in order to reach totally new people (and earn huge amounts of money).
And then more or less nothing in between (I see symphony after symphony explode there marketing budgets for weekly concerts and getting deeper and deeper into both financial and audience problems).
I think the suggestion to move marketing money from risky productions to popular ones is extremely shortsighted because (1) the bulk of the productions are risky (2) these risky productions is the core of most symphonies and (3) these risky productions should be the core of the symphonies if we want to maintain long term credibility. Don't blame the arts when the problem is shortsighted and incompetent marketing!Magnus Stillhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5109739097027474073.post-14990077311074552882012-08-08T09:38:52.505-06:002012-08-08T09:38:52.505-06:00TRG received this comment from Brian Mahoney, Vice...TRG received this comment from Brian Mahoney, Vice President of Ticket Sales at The Shubert Organization. We reprint it here with his permission:

Interesting reading. Is there a lot of discounting on Broadway, yes. Rick, however, underestimates the percentage of tickets sold at regular price – he uses the term "face value" but most discount tickets sold through the primary channels are sold at the price on the face of the ticket. In fact many shows sell only 30% or less of their tickets at regular price with the balance sold at various discounts, TKTS, TDF, rush, groups, etc.

As for premium tickets, more and more shows have priced their premium tickets under $200 so the price has a rational relationship to the regular box office price of orchestra seats -as opposed to 200% of the regular orchestra price - and only raise the price when the public tells them through sales the ticket is under priced.

Rick does make a very good point about setting regular ticket prices for the discount market, especially TKTS, rather than for what people are willing to pay for specific parts of the theatre.Amelia Northruphttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5109739097027474073.post-86986555927346243112012-08-08T09:32:29.018-06:002012-08-08T09:32:29.018-06:00Really good article in the Economist on Olympic ti...Really good article in the Economist on Olympic tickets.

I'm a huge Leonard Cohen fan, but a good seat to his upcoming concert here in Portland costs close to $200. At that price, I'll shed a tear and go to a ball game or rent a DVD from RedBox instead. Point is that, with a few exceptions (thoise being the obsessive fanatics), arts exhibitors are competing across genres.

U.S. Providing $16 Million to Capture Power From Tides and Waves
The U.S. Energy Department is providing $16 million to back 17 projects related to capturing power from waves and tides.
The recipients include Ocean Power Technologies Inc. (OPTT), which is developing a power buoy that produces electricity; ABB Ltd. (ABBN), which is building a compact generator; the University of Maine, which is studying the reactions of marine life to power systems; and Dehlsen Associates LLC, which is designing software to predict wave conditions.
The agency has identified as much as 1,400 potential terawatt-hours of annual generating capacity from waves and tides, according to a statement today on the agency's website. One terawatt-hour could power about 85,000 homes.
"Wave and tidal energy represent a large, untapped resource," David Danielson, assistant secretary for energy efficiency and renewable energy, said in the statement. The U.S. uses about 4,000 terawatt-hours annually, according to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management's website.

When it comes to pancreatitis and other gastrointestinal conditions, expert
evaluation is vital to accurately diagnose the nature of the condition,
and then determine the best course of treatment for the individual patient.
At Hoag, our
USC-affiliated multidisciplinary team of experts includes academic-level pancreatic surgeons, hepatologists and
radiologists who work together to thoroughly review and determine the
best treatment option suited to each individual patient.
The Hoag-USC team then carefully tailors a personalized treatment plan
to effectively achieve the best possible outcome for the patient. This
emphasis on a collaborative, comprehensive approach to patient-centered
care is why Hoag patient outcomes rank among the nation's best.
Treatment options for acute pancreatitis include: Supportive care including
admission to the hospital, intravenous fluids and IV antibiotics in order
to ease patient discomfort and aid in recovery while carefully evaluating
the patient's condition. When the pancreas is severe, advanced critical
care is necessary for survival. Patients often develop multiple organ
failure and require advanced critical care for input for survival.
Surgical treatment options for severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis include:
The advanced surgical treatment options for chronic pancreatitis include:
When it comes to seeking out the most advanced, academic-level hepatobiliary
and pancreatic care, there is no longer any need to travel long distances.
The Hoag Digestive Disease Center, in alliance with Keck Medicine of USC,
offers the latest in state-of-the-art diagnosis and leading-edge treatment
options that may not be readily available at other centers.
In fact, the
Hoag-USC surgical team performs more complex pancreatic surgeries than any other surgical program
in Southern California. Being a high-volume hepatobiliary and pancreatic
surgical program enables the gastrointestinal experts at Hoag to achieve
a technical skill level not all facilities can match.
Perhaps the most distinguishing aspect of Hoag's advanced treatment
of hepatobiliary and pancreatic conditions is that in each and every case,
treatment is always specifically tailored to the meet the unique needs
of the individual patient.
The Hoag Digestive Disease Center, in alliance with USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, continues to
lead the way in complex hepatobiliary and pancreatic care, providing access
to a highly specialized surgical team that works collaboratively with
Hoag-affiliated gastroenterologists and medical oncology specialists to
provide academic-level care. Hoag's committed to accurate
diagnosis, combined with
progressive therapeutic options enables Hoag patients to achieve some of the highest clinical outcomes
in the nation.

consultation with a Hoag pancreatic care expert, visit Meet the Team,

Impact Wins Second Straight on the Road with a 2-1 Win over Portland
March 10, 2013 - Major League Soccer (MLS) - Montreal Impact News Release
PORTLAND, Oregon - A spectacular overhead volley by defender Hassoun Camara and an insurance marker by Felipe was enough to lift the Impact to a 2-1 victory over the Portland Timbers on Saturday, at JELD-WEN Field, in Portland. With its second consecutive victory on away from Stade Saputo, the Impact has managed to equal its win total on the road from all of last season and is 2-0 in 2013.
The Impact took the lead 30 minutes into the first half with a highlight reel goal by defender Hassoun Camara for his first of the season. Following a ball that was played into the box, fellow back liner Matteo Ferrari managed to beat his marker near the half circle with an outstretched foot, flicking the ball over towards Camara five yards to his right. The Frenchmen's overhead volley with his back towards goal drifted passed Timbers' goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts to his right.
Then in the second half, Brazilian midfielder Felipe doubled his team's lead in the 60th minute. After winning a ball near the centre circle, 2012 Team MVP Patrice Bernier played a long through ball to substitute Andres Romero, making his Impact debut. Romero chased the ball all the way to the goal line down the right flank, playing a back pass towards the six yard box where Felipe beat Ricketts short side, to his left.
Portland got one back in the 80th minute when midfielder Ben Zemanski played a long cross to the second post from deep down the right flank that found forward Ryan Johnson, sliding to beat Perkins from just inside the six yard box.
"We didn't come in here and steal the three points tonight," said Impact head coach Marco Schallibaum. "We were solid defensively and had a lot of help from our midfield. It was a difficult and tight game, but we responded well."
"We return home with two wins on the road," said Bernier. "Winning away takes a lot of character. We have continued to progress defensively. We haven't given up a goal from the middle, so that's another positive for us."
"I think this team believes that we have a team to get results on the road," noted captain Davy Arnaud. "We created some really good scoring chances and we played a good team game tonight."
More highlights
After holding off pressure from Portland early on, Andrea Pisanu played a quick throw in down the right flank to forward Marco Di Vaio in the 8th minute. Di Vaio then played a short, lateral ball inside to Felipe from near the right corner of the box, but the Brazilian's low, one-timer rolled just wide of the far post.
Three minutes later, Pisanu found a ball 10 yards from the corner flag that he chipped over the Timbers defenders towards Di Vaio who was all alone near the penalty spot. The Impact's DP did well to get a head on it, but Timbers' keeper Donovan Ricketts made an acrobatic save, diving to his left.
Goalkeeper Troy Perkins, who was playing his former team, made a key stop in the 27th minute when he slid to block Johnson's shot after he came in alone on goal. Ten minutes later, he blocked a hard blast from 25 yards out by Darlington Nagbe. Again in the 66th minute, he frustrated Andrew Baptiste from in close.
Second half sub Collen Warner came close in the 87th minute following a scramble in the box, but Ricketts managed to get a hand on the ball despite being out of position.

AC Milan president Adriano Gallaini has revealed that the club has missed out on signing Totti and Xavi when they were young.
Roma legend Francesco Totti celebrated the 20th anniversary of his Serie A debut on Thursday. The 36-year-old also scored his 226th goal against Parma few days back, which crossed Gunnar Nordahl's tally of goals in the league and the Roman is now the second highest scorer in the history of Serie A. Although some have pointed out that he should have left Roma in order to win more trophies that player like him deserves, but in all honesty, he has always been more than just a footballer for Roma.
But according to Adriano Gallaini's recent statement, it could have been so different for Francesco Totti and AS Roma. The AC Milan president has revealed that his club missed out on signing Francesco Totti and a midfielder by the name of Xavi, when they starting their footballing careers.
"Was Totti close to signing for AC Milan? As a kid, yes, but not recently. We were closer in bringing Xavi to the club, there was even a contract. I was dealing with the father of the player at the time but did not realize I also had to deal with his mother." Galliani was quoted in press.
The 68-year-old has also congratulated Totti on his achievement of becoming the second highest goal scorer in Serie A, but he insisted that if Milan would have been able to retain Shevchenko, the Ukrainian striker would have beaten Silvio Piola's record of most number of goals in Serie A.
"He [Totti] equaled Nordahl's record, who was our star and he only has Silvio Piola infront of him so congratulations.
"I always regret that if my friend Andriy Shevchenko had not left Italy, he would have probably beaten Piola's record." – The AC Milan president added.
Meanwhile, Milan has secured the future of one of their rising stars as El Shaarawy has signed a new contract that would run till 2018, the club announced. The 20-year-old who has been scintillating form this season – scoring 18 goals and four assists – has been linked with Manchester United and Manchester City in recent times. But with this contract extension, Milan's future looks bright.

DUESSELDORF, Germany (Reuters) - There is a chance that German steelmaker ThyssenKrupp (TKAG.DE) could end up keeping its loss-making Steel Americas business, after trying for more than a year to find a buyer for the plants in Brazil and Alabama, a person close to the matter said.
"Plan B is to keep the plants," the person told Reuters following a meeting of ThyssenKrupp's supervisory board on Tuesday.
Holding on to the plants is just one of several options, the source said.
A second person said there was hardly any hope that a deal could be struck to sell the plants.
ThyssenKrupp wants to sell Steel Americas because the business is sapping its finances and slowing a planned shift from its traditional steel business to higher-margin products and services such as elevators, submarines and parts for manufacturing plants.
Sources have said in the past that ThyssenKrupp was in talks with Brazil's Companhia Siderurgica Nacional (CSN) (CSNA3.SA), among others.
"You cannot negotiate forever if the other side just wants to push down the price," the source said, adding ThyssenKrupp could cut the plants' output for now to cut costs.
A German newspaper earlier reported that ThyssenKrupp was set to set to scrap the sale of Steel Americas to launch a quick and much-needed capital increase. ThyssenKrupp brushed off the report, saying sales talks were continuing with no change.
But pressure is rising on Chief Executive Heinrich Hiesinger to find a solution quickly as ThyssenKrupp, a symbol of Germany's industrial prowess, is at risk of breaching loan covenants when its financial year ends at the end of the month.
At the end of June, its gearing ratio - how much debt it has compared to equity - had jumped to 185.7 percent from 148.2 percent three months earlier.
If it remains above 150 percent at the end of ThyssenKrupp's fiscal year, banks could cancel an undrawn 2.5 billion euro ($3.3 billion) credit line because of a breach of covenants.
($1 = 0.7601 euros)

I'll keep this post as short as possible, but before I actually say anything about combat lemme start with the why and where. I'm writing this in the hopes that it will help those on the fence make a decision, when it comes to combat. The reason I'm doing this is because I myself was on the fence for the longest time about it, since I all had were those beta videos to go on.
I'm a huge star wars fan, and I like MMOs. So this game was a no brainer right? Well almost, but then I saw the combat in videos. Was very worried. I'll be honest right now; I've grown to like it. So let's see why and how you can, if you're willing to give it a shot... And please remember, I'm no game designer, so this is merely how I see things.
Animations are kinda a big deal in this game. It isn't the huge deal it is in some asian MMOs, (I'm going to be referring to Dragon Nest, or DN, for this post), nor is it the minor deal it is in WoW. I played both these MMOs recently (WoW for 5 years, DN for about a year), so memories are relatively fresh.
Animation clashing with keybind input is the core of this game's problems, and at the same time the promise it brings. Now, with games like DN, animations look smooth in videos and feel pretty smooth because the game literally does one of two things: ONE, while you're casting the skill, you can't skillcancel and go on to the next, so in essence you're channeling, and letting your character do his/her combo in full; the "combo" being that one button you just hit. Two, the skill/spell you casted is a range type ability (like a wave of force for example), so your character's time in animation is short, while the ability animation carries on and you can proceed to do some thing else.
That's one extreme of animation vs input.
WoW, on the other hand, only has decent animations for channeling spells, because there's time to put in an animation there. For melee, and instant cast spells, it's literally a very brief wave of the hand in one direction or another. As much as I loved my rogue (my main in WoW for those 5 years), his animations were pretty shit for the most part, except for the odd thing like Shadowstep (and even then..). However, WoW feels extremely smooth because of this. Admittedly, I was very used to this, and animations were never as important to me as getting the job of my class done. I loved how right WoW got the feel of combat, even though animations were compromised.
So now we have SWTOR, which in my opinion, is trying to find the middleground between those extremes. It provides some good animation, even for melee classes. Range classes typically have their casting times which makes it feel less jerky, but for melee classes, it does at first feel like somehow, Bioware got the timing wrong. To be honest, as much as I've grown to like combat, I think this can still be worked on. Minor tweaks here and they could go a long way to making combat feel as fluid as it should.
However, for those of you on the fence, if combat is all you're worried about (and you can't try it through a friend), then I say it's still worth it. Combat is nowhere as clunky as some make it out to be. There are two things you can do to make things feel much smoother for yourself. The first is understanding that you constantly need to be hitting a skill, and making sure you have the resources to use it. I love my Jedi Knight, but it felt SO clunky once I got to about level 14 ish, because I still wasn't quite used to a rotation (I was enjoying the game too much to care up to this point, but finally decided to do something about it). So I gave all my skills a good look, looked at the spec I wanted to have, and moved around some skills to make things more comfortable and "natural feeling" for myself. For example, my interrupts are always on F, and my gap closers are on E, alt-E.
After you get a good feel for your typical skill setup, experiment with the latency compensation option in the Preferences menu. Most people currently feel comfortable at 0.0. I personally go with 0.25.
With these 2 tips, combat feels great. So basically, I've just had to adjust to SWTOR's way of doing things. To be clear, I liked DN's combat, I loved WoW's, and now, I love SWTOR's. I think SWTOR still has alittle way to go to become **(^^&*%#*# fantastic, but it does feel really good once you get used to it.
So for those of you willing to try, I'd say gogogo. If you're willing to get good at it, you will like it.
For those of you wanting to come into the game and automatically slip into the system and feel good with it immediately, don't get this game. I'm not bashing you, all I mean is that the combat needs some more improvements before feeling silky smooth right from the get go. You will not enjoy the combat if you're expecting it to feel like WoW, or like DN, or like any other MMO you may have played. It's got its own feel. I like it, despite it being my number 1 worry about the game. But that's my opinion of course.
Hope this wasn't too confusing and helped out those of you still wondering about the feel of combat.

Why bother to build green?
As James Carville would say, 'It's the economy stupid.' " (And the environment).
The Build San Antonio Green program did a bit of math and calculated that the 139 owners of San Antonio's green homes together are saving $44,000 in energy costs every year.
They're also lowering their carbon footprint by avoiding more than 800,000 pounds of CO2 emissions – the same as taking 68 cars off the road.
Build San Antonio Green was developed by the Metropolitan Partnership for Energy and is co-administered by the Greater San Antonio Builders Association.
So far, there's just 139 certified "green" homes in San Antonio, but the program expects to certify several hundred more homes in 2008.
But if you're not in the market for a new green home, you can figure out how to lower your energy use by visiting the Build San Antonio Green website and following the advice from CPS, the San Antonio Water System and other green-building partners who can give tips on water use, landscaping or adding insulation and other home improvements.
There's no official green remodeling program (yet) from Build San Antonio Green, but they promise one soon.
Meanwhile, you can calculate your own carbon footprint here.

While engineers and designers feverishly worked overtime on the development of a four-passenger cars they code-named the F-car, the Chevy public relations, marketing and advertising team prepared the world for the intro of a car they called the Panther.
All through the summertime of 1965 essentially every element of the automobile's design and advancement, from initial design sketches to clay designs, was photographed and thoroughly recorded. Chevy utilized the assets to produce a 30 -minute movie The Camaro for sale in Stanley WI , which was later revealed on TV and in cinema. They also introduced females's clothes called the Camaro Collection as well as a Camaro roadway race online game.
Chevy Camaros For Sale
In November, Chevy sales executives and imaginative individuals previewed prototype designs at the GM Tech Center. Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's venerable ad agency, right away started deal with brochures, direct mail and sales promotion products, along with print, outside and TV/radio advertising. In April 1966, at the New York Auto Show Press Conference, Chevrolet sales executives confessed no name had actually been chosen for the new vehicle, however did reveal that pricing of 1967 Chevy Camaro for sale in Stanley WI model will be in the Corvair-Chevy II range.
Throughout early 1966 Chevy agonized over a name for its Mustang-killer. GM's upper management was nervous about the aggressive undertones of the Panther name. A similar bout of cold feet would later cause the Pontiac variation, code named the Banshee, to be renamed Firebird. Over its short lifetime, the F-car had been called by numerous names consisting of Wildcat, Chaparral, Commander and Nova. It's also rumored that Chevy considered utilizing the letters "GM" in the name, and developed G-Mini, which progressed into GeMini and finally Gemini. Nevertheless, GM's upper management banned the idea, fearing the car might be a failure.
Automotive legend has it that somebody at Chevrolet lastly proposed the name Camaro and upper management rapidly concurred. Although the name has no real significance, GM scientists apparently found the word in a French dictionary as a slang term for "pal" or "companion." It's rumored that Ford Motor Business scientists likewise found other definitions, consisting of "a shrimp-like creature" and an arcane term for "loose bowels."
Since a number or pre-launch products had already been launched utilizing the Panther name, Chevy's many pushing obstacle was to now rename their brand-new Mustang killer, the Camaro. Camaros are found in Stanley WI by looking for classic car dealers.
As soon as inside dealers in the majority of metro locations, buyers were alleviated to not one however three Camaro models. Chevy made every effort to offer their biggest dealerships with a base sport coupe, Camaro RS and a Camaro SS convertible. The method was an extension of the creative technique used in Chevy's national ads which showed all 3 Camaro models under a tag line, "Just how much Camaro you desire depends on just how much motorist you want to be."

Parents should try to find opportunities that match their children's skills and interests. There are opportunities available that even very young children can do with parental guidance. Mei Cobb, the director of United Way's Volunteer Engagement program, notes that parents should be conscious of what is suitable for each child's age group, and suggests any of the following age-appropriate activities:
Ages 1 to 4
Ages 5 to 12
When looking into kid-friendly volunteering, be sure not to assume all non profits are created equal. Ensure the organizations have a program in place for children who wish to volunteer and that the volunteer coordinators, workers and other staff are properly accredited. Know exactly what will be expected of your child, and always ask for references where possible.
There are several simple ways to get started on the path to philanthropy that don't require formally registering for any one particular organization, and some don't even require you to leave your home.
While there are many factors that contribute to the behaviors and beliefs of youth in today's society, volunteering is a way to guide and positively affect their belief systems and develop a closer relationship in the process.

Settling in Just Fine
Longtime faculty member Kafka is relishing his new role as director of BC's Weston Observatory
Almost two months into his appointment as director of the University's Weston Observatory, Associate Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences Alan Kafka says he is excited to further the mission of one of the world's leading earthquake monitoring and research institutes.
"The Weston Observatory enjoys a proud legacy and will continue to play a significant role in the future of Boston College," said Kafka, who has been involved with the work of the observatory — located about 10 miles from campus in the town of Weston — during the course of his 30-year career at BC. "I view it as a priceless resource to our campus and the communities we serve."
A geophysicist who specializes in seismology, Kafka assumed the post at the start of the fall semester, taking over for long-time director and Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences John Ebel, who is now serving as chairman of the department.
Kafka said the observatory, which has been recording earthquakes since the 1930s, will continue to carry out a three-tiered mission of scientific research, public outreach and science education in Boston-area communities.
Research takes place on a global scale, supporting the work of professors and government scientists around the world. The observatory's seismic instruments support the New England Seismic Network and the World-Wide Standardized Seismic Network.
Public outreach has grown to include a significant role in earthquake mitigation, ranging from research into forecasting seismic activity and providing guidance to agencies such as the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency.
Science education includes school visits and tours, as well as the observatory's Educational Seismology Program, which places seismographs in K-12 classrooms and public libraries in support of science education and outreach.
The observatory remains firmly rooted in its history, Kafka said, a direct result of the work of early Jesuit scholars in the earth sciences whose religious order supplied one of the first global networks for the collection and dissemination of earthquake data. Visitors can still watch the seismographs roll, their delicate needles transcribing onto graph paper the movement of the earth below.
At the same time, the observatory has moved its data onto high-tech networks of servers to offer access to a global audience. The staff is currently developing new software to provide earthquake data to scholars and students of all ages.
This melding of old and new is part of the challenge of leading the observatory, Kafka said.
"An earthquake observatory is a unique place," he said. "It's a research laboratory, it's a distributed network for earthquake monitoring and research, and it's a provider of educational and public outreach resources about all aspects of seismology and earthquake hazards.
"This is an exciting time in the field of seismology, particularly in the cutting-edge use of the Internet and social networking to advance seismological research and mitigate earthquake hazards. We are excited about the possibilities."

Dynamic Comparisons of Measures in a Dashboard
Did you know that you can empower users to do dynamic comparisons of various measures in a dashboard? As long as you have version 2.5 of Dundas BI or later, the 'dynamic element' filter allows users to substitute one measure for another on a dashboard.
In this example, the user is comparing a fictional trend of 'CNOOC Limited' to 'Bank of America'
But now they are interested in seeing how 'CNOOC Limited' compares to another company. To do this, all they have to do is choose the other company that they want to see in the list.
Here are the results after selecting a second company to compare against.
This type of functionality can be accomplished without any code and just requires the use of the above mentioned filter.
The following gives a walkthrough of how to implement a dynamic filter:

Speech at Havana, Illinois [1]
I am informed, that my distinguished friend yesterday became a little excited, nervous, perhaps, [laughter] and he said something about fighting, as though referring to a pugilistic encounter between him and myself. Did anybody in this audience hear him use such language? [Cries of yes.] I am informed, further, that somebody in his audience, rather more excited, or nervous, than himself, took off his coat, and offered to take the job off Judge Douglas' hands, and fight Lincoln himself. Did anybody here witness that warlike proceeding? [Laughter, and cries of yes.] Well, I merely desire to say that I shall fight neither Judge Douglas nor his second. [Great laughter.] I shall not do this for two reasons, which I will now explain. In the first place, a fight would provePage 542 nothing which is in issue in this contest. It might → establish that Judge Douglas is a more muscular man than myself, or it ← might → demonstrate that I am a more muscular man than Judge Douglas. But this question is not referred to in the Cincinnati platform, nor in either of the Springfield platforms. [Great laughter.] Neither result would prove him ← right or me wrong. And so of the gentleman who volunteered to do his fighting for him. If my fighting Judge Douglas would not prove anything, it would certainly prove nothing for me to fight his bottle-holder. [Continued laughter.]
My second reason for not having a personal encounter with the Judge is, that I don't believe he wants it himself. [Laughter.] He and I are about the best friends in the world, and when we get together he would no more think of fighting me than of fighting his wife. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, when the Judge talked about fighting, he was not giving vent to any ill-feeling of his own, but merely trying to excite---well, enthusiasm against me on the part of his audience. And as I find he was tolerably successful, we will call it quits. [Cheers and laughter.]
One other matter of trifling consequence, and I will proceed. I understand that Judge Douglas yesterday referred to the fact that both Judge Trumbull and myself are making speeches throughout the State to beat him for the Senate, and that he tried to create a sympathy by the suggestion that this was playing two upon one against him. It is true that Judge Trumbull has made a speech in Chicago, and I believe he intends to co-operate with the Republican Central Committee in their arrangements for the campaign to the extent of making other speeches in different parts of the State. Judge Trumbull is a Republican, like myself, and he naturally feels a lively interest in the success of his party. Is there anything wrong about that? But I will show you how little Judge Douglas's appeal to your sympathies amounts to. At the next general election, two years from now, a Legislature will be elected which will have to choose a successor to Judge Trumbull. Of course there will be an effort to fill his place with a Democrat. This person, whoever he may be, is probably out making stump-speeches against me, just as Judge Douglas is. It may be one of the present Democratic members of the lower house of Congress---but who ever he is, I can tell you he has got to make some stump speeches now, or his party will not nominate him for the seat occupied by Judge Trumbull. Well, are not Judge Douglas and this man playing twoPage 543upon one against me, just as much as Judge Trumbull and I are playing two upon one against Judge Douglas? [Laughter.] And if it happens that there are two Democratic aspirants for Judge Trumbull's place, are they not playing three upon one against me, just as we are playing two upon one against Judge Douglas? [Renewed laughter.]

This is the most complete report available, but the Tribune specifies that following these introductory remarks Lincoln spoke for two hours, touching on ``negro equality and amalgamation,'' and ``the conspiracy to Africanize the American continent.''

- proper n. the Latin translation of the Bible (from Hebrew and Greek) made by Saint Jerome
from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License
Really, (and I'm soooo not a Biblical scholar, here) the Hebrew word that the Vulgate translates as "reptile" appears to mean something more like "swarming things" than "creeping things," so Aelfric may be getting it no more wrong than the Vulgate before him.
Vulgate comes from a Latin word meaning common, because Jeromes translation used the Latin of everyday speech.
So came into being what we call the Vulgate, whose very name indicates the desire to get the Bible into the vulgar or common tongue.
The process continued with the adoption of the Latin Vulgate, which took on primary-text status even though it is a translation of the Greek text.

On September 6, the Community Financial Services Association of America (CFSA) released a 2,000-plus page document containing testimonials submitted to the CFPB regarding consumers' positive experiences with the payday loan industry. A CFSA representative uncovered the allegedly "buried" stories through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed December 31, 2015. According to the CFSA, of the newly discovered 12,546 consumer comments regarding to the payday loan industry, 12,308 "praised the industry and its products and services, or otherwise indicated positive experiences." Among other things, the CFSA further noted that (i) since the CFPB implemented its consumer complaint portal in 2011, approximately 1.5% of all complaints received related to the payday loan industry; (ii) in an FTC 2015 summary of consumer complaints, the "FTC found that just 0.003% of more than three million complaints related to payday lending"; and (iii) at least two customer surveys reveal that payday loan borrowers are overwhelmingly satisfied with the product. Regarding the CFPB's proposed rules to address the short-term lending industry, CFSA CEO Dennis Shaul commented, "[i]t is clear that millions of consumers are satisfied with the payday loan product and services, and do not want the federal government to take this valued credit option away from them."

Nice claim vital late win
Eric Bautheac scored an 81st-minute winner as Nice pulled away from the bottom three with only their second win of the season.
Last Updated: 03/11/12 9:30pm
Eric Bautheac scored an 81st-minute winner as Nice pulled away from Ligue 1's bottom three with only their second win of the season as they beat Nancy 2-1.
Bautheac's corner had set up the opener for Mahamane Traore, but Salif Sane equalised on the stroke of half-time.
It appeared for a long time as though Nice were destined for their seventh draw in 11 league games this season but Bautheac had other ideas.
Nancy had the first clear-cut chance of the afternoon when Djamel Bakar set up Ziri Hammar, who ran through on goal but saw his shot saved by David Ospina.
But Nice went ahead in the 20th minute, Bautheac's delivery flicked on by Dario Cvitanovich for Traore to fire past unsighted keeper Guy N'Dy Assembe.
Bakar hammered a 20-yard shot against the post but, after Valentin Eysseric went close at the other end, Nancy's equaliser arrived in first-half stoppage time.
Again the goal came from a corner, Yohan Mollo crossing for Sane to head home at the near post.
That goal gave Nancy the momentum going into the second half and they almost took advantage, Lossemy Karaboue drawing a full-length save from Ospina.
The keeper then had to deal with an awkward bounce to save Hammar's 30-yard strike.
Nice took the upper hand again as the half went on, N'Dy Assembe making an excellent save to keep out Bautheac before turning Eysseric's 20-yard effort around the post.
The pressure finally told with a little under 10 minutes remaining when Didier Digard sent substitute Jeremy Pied running free and the summer signing from Lyon cut the ball back for Bautheac to drive low past the keeper.

One thing I've found is if you are also upstream for the package, and you want to use git-buildpackage, you need to do the 'pristine-tar commit' for both the distribution archive and the debian 'orig' archive. It's easy enough to do (just rename the distribution archive to the debian 'orig' format & do the commit on that) , but is an extra step. (If there is an easier/better way to do that, I'd be interested in hearing about it...)

Heynckes sets bar high for Guardiola at BayernBy CIARAN FAHEY , Associated Press

After agreeing to take over at Bayern from next season, Guardiola has had to sit back and watch his predecessor lead the club on a record-breaking season that still has records in sight.
Jupp Heynckes' side wrapped up the German title with a six games to spare on Saturday, becoming the fastest champion in the 50-year history of the Bundesliga, two weeks earlier than the previous mark set by Bayern in 1972-73 and 2002-03.
"I never became a champion at such chilly temperatures, neither as a player nor as a coach," Heynckes said after Bayern's 1-0 win at Eintracht Frankfurt in 6 degrees Celsius.
It was the third time Heynckes led Bayern to the title in his third stint in charge, following back-to-back wins in 1989 and 1990 from his first spell.
The accolades from his rivals poured in quickly.
"Nobody deserves the title more than Jupp Heynckes," said Frankfurt coach Armin Veh.
"Jupp, that was an extraordinary season," said Borussia Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp. "Your team did almost everything right."
Heynckes won four Bundesliga titles as a player with Borussia Moenchengladbach in the 1970s, but his latest triumph will be remembered for the team's sheer dominance from the beginning of the season.
After defeating Dortmund in the curtain-raising German Supercup, Bayern made the best ever start to a Bundesliga season with eight straight wins.
It followed up by becoming the fastest team to earn the unofficial title of "autumn champion" with three matches to spare before the winter break.
And it will have its name all over the record books when the season is over.
Bayern has dropped points just four times in 28 games so far, with only one defeat, having scored a colossal 79 goals and conceded 13. Its goal difference is already better than the previous season best of plus-64, while it looks certain to break the record of 21 for fewest goals conceded in a Bundesliga season.
Bayern has kept the opposition scoreless on 18 occasions, putting the season's record of 19 easily within reach, while it already holds the record for 18 wins without conceding.
The side's away form has been better than at home, with just two goals conceded on the road — the record low is 10 — while 12 clean sheets away from home is already a new mark.
Saturday's win at Frankfurt was the 13th away win of the season — also a record.
Bayern has scored in each of its last 31 Bundesliga games and is bearing down on its own best of 36 straight set between 1973 and 1974.
Heynckes' side is on a run of 11 consecutive wins — also a record within a Bundesliga season.
And Bayern, on 75 points, remains on course to smash Dortmund's mark of 81 set last year.
"Of course, this is also thanks to Jupp Heynckes, who did a brilliant job and made a great team," Germany coach Joachim Loew said.
Heynckes will be oldest Bundesliga-winning coach at 68 by the end of the season, and the veteran used his experience to make the right calls at the right time, rotating his side expertly, and keeping a lid on inflated egos in a team packed with stars.
Players like Mario Gomez and Arjen Robben have had to play second fiddle to Mario Mandzukic, who has 15 league goals, and local favorite Thomas Mueller, who chipped in with 12.
In a way, Heynckes has been helped by Bayern's lack of success over the previous two years, when Dortmund was earning all the plaudits, and by the bitter disappointment of losing the Champions League final on penalties to Chelsea in its own stadium.
Bayern also finished runner-up to defending champion Dortmund in the Bundesliga, before suffering the ignominy of a 5-2 loss to Dortmund in the German Cup final.
Those disappointments prompted Bayern to fire sporting director Christian Nerlinger, replacing him with Matthias Sammer, and to splash out €70.3 million ($87.7 million) on reinforcements, including a club record €40 million ($49.9 million) on Javi Martinez from Athletic Bilbao.
It was a statement of intent, even if the Spaniard hasn't yet justified his price tag.
Martinez and Mandzukic were joined by Peru's Claudio Pizarro, Brazilian Dante, exciting Swiss winger Xherdan Shaqiri and reserve goalkeeper Tom Starke.
With the deeper squad, Heynckes could demand unwavering focus from his side, and a resolute determination not to fail again.
Dante, who arrived from Borussia Moenchengladbach to shore up the defense, complained last month that Bayern's training sessions were tougher than the side's Bundesliga games.
Before the season began, many fans wondered if players like Bastian Schweinsteiger, who was distraught at missing the decisive spot kick against Chelsea, could recover from such a blow to again prove instrumental for their side.
It was fitting that Schweinsteiger, who was born nearby and joined Bayern as a youth, scored the goal that sealed the club's 23rd German championship with a classy back-heel worthy of a title.
Now the prospect of a treble draws tantalizingly close for Bayern, which eliminated holder Dortmund from the German Cup, and has one foot in the Champions League semifinals after beating Juventus 2-0 in their quarterfinal first leg.
Heynckes won the German Cup as a player with Moenchengladbach, and the Champions League as a coach in 1998, when he ended Real Madrid's 32-year wait for the title.
A treble would be a perfect send off, even if Heynckes has admitted having second thoughts on retirement after such an outstanding season.
"When I see that (Konrad) Adenauer became chancellor at 71 and now that our pope takes office at 76, then I also have the right, at 68, to think about whether I'll do something else," he joked.
What is certain is that Heynckes will do all he can to leave Bayern on a high and that Guardiola will inherit a record-breaking side with little left to improve.
Expectations for the 42-year-old Spaniard, who signed a three-year deal with Bayern in January, were already huge after he turned Barcelona into arguably the world's greatest side before taking a one-year sabbatical.
Guardiola won an unprecedented Champions League, league and cup treble in his first season as Barcelona coach.
He may find he has to do it all over again.

I haven't been around much lately in the blogging world. I've suddenly got an influx of work and I also want to set up my Etsy shop this month which is very exciting, but all my focus is on that and work right now. I normally like to write 8 blog posts a month, but I'm not sure how much free time I am going to have over the next two months, however, I'll do my best to post as and when.
Here is a (very late) list of my May favourites:
* I was sent 4 bottles of Sparkling Elderflower to review from Rocks Drinks last month. It was when we had that little heat wave and I was so grateful to sip on this refreshing drink poured over ice. My Husband and I both really enjoyed this, were big fans of Elderflower drinks and we rate this highly! I'm keen to try more of Rocks Drinks other delicious sounding options.
These drinks are ready to go with a screw top lid, so no fussy lids like other glass bottle drinks. I like that it's a glass bottle which in my opinion is a better option to plastic. Made in Devon with an uncomplicated approach, a simple list of ingredients and using the finest fruit growers, Rocks Drinks squashes and squeezes all of the goodness out of each piece of fruit that goes into their drinks.
You can buy drinks from Rocks Drinks Here
*As a Mills & Boon insider I get sent a complimentary book to read each month to review. This month I read Sold For The Greek's Heir by Lynne Graham. This is the third and final instalment of a series of books about three sisters.
A brief fling between playboy Jax and waitress Lucy ends abruptly leaving Lucy pregnant. Unbeknown to Lucy, Jax thought she'd betrayed him, so he disappears from her life. Unable to get hold of Jax to tell him she was having his baby Lucy is left alone to get on with things.
They run into each other two years later and Jax finds out he has a child. Although Lucy was treated terribly, she can't deny that they still have chemistry. Can feisty Lucy forget the past and move forward through the various obstacles that face them.
Both characters have troubled pasts, but I didn't warm to Jax, he was very overbearing and dominant. I preferred Lucy, however, not as much as her sister Ellie who was the main focus in the second book of this series: The Italian's One-Night baby.
I enjoyed this short read, it was nice to read the final book in this series. I liked that the book ended with all three sisters reconnected, although I would have liked to read more of an interaction between them. The great thing is that if you haven't read the previous books, then it won't matter, it will all still make sense.
You can buy a copy Here
I am not a fan of the Summer! Sorry for those sun worshippers among you, but I'm not. I much prefer crisp cold mornings, snow and cosy days. I can't stand heat waves so when we had that brief heat wave last month, I was looking for ways to cool down. Lots of ice in drinks and lollies, one of the few things I enjoy about the Summer! My Mum gave me a box of Mini Milks the other day, anyone remember having those as a kid? What a throw back! So was this Nobbly Bobbly I enjoyed too!
* Also from Mills & Book is The Mills & Boon Modern Girl's Guide to Growing Old Disgracefully by Ada Adverse. I have previously reviewed one of Ada's other books 'Turning into your Mother'
These books are hilarious and again the anecdotes are accompanied by black and white vintage looking photos. I laughed out loud more than once at this book and spent a nice half an hour eating snacks and reading this on my sofa. It really cheered me up!
This book is so witty and is sure to raise a laugh among friends and also with older relatives.
You can buy a copy Here
As you can see from the above mini reviews I am enjoying reading! I went through a spell of not reading as much as I used too and now I am reading loads again, which makes me so happy. I find it a great way of de-stressing and unwinding. I have a very active mind, I am constantly thinking all the time and losing myself in a great book is a way of silencing my mind for a little while. I'm also finding that it is helping me sleep. If I read before trying to sleep then it helps me dose off.
What did you enjoy about May? Let me know below.
* Anything marked with a * was sent to me to review. However, this does not have any affect on my opinion at all.
