Snack Review
Taste test: Most of the variations of the original Snickers change the basic formula by swapping one element for another, but this time they just added an extra one, so we got hazelnuts in addition to peanuts.
From the outside, it looked like a regular Snickers bar. I bit in to find the expected chocolate, caramel, nougat and peanuts, so it did taste a whole lot like an original Snickers, but every time I encountered a hazelnut, the texture and taste added some strangeness to it, as both seemed just a little bit off when added to the existing combination. I've enjoyed many hazelnut snacks over the years, but it just didn't seem to work in a Snickers.

Introducing Greenpeace Unidos: A Place for Latinx Environmentalists
"In a very personal and literal sense, Latinxs can't afford not to care about the environment."
by Azucena Lucatero
April 11, 2017
Latinxs overwhelmingly support action to protect the environment, but we haven't always been given a place in the movement. Under a Trump presidency, Latinx environmentalism needs a voice now more than ever.
© Prometeo Lucero / Greenpeace
In the Trump era, much is uncertain — especially when it comes to protecting our environment. But for people of color, the Trump administration is proving to be a reliable source of added frustration and anguish.
Latinxs stand at the intersection of these threats to our climate and communities. Polls have consistently shown that Latinxs are concerned about climate change and want government action to mitigate it. At the same time, we are less likely to self-identify as environmentalists than white folks or other people of color. While this might seem like a contradiction, it's not surprising at all in the context of the historic disconnect between latinidad and the mainstream environmental movement.
Let's start with some anecdotal evidence. Before working at Greenpeace, most of my activism was directed at my family. I would encourage them to give up bottled water and plastic bags, buy organic produce, and eat less meat. But I wasn't very successful at getting them to follow my advice. My parents, at least, would listen curiously. My brother usually just laughed and teased me for it.
Looking back, my family's reaction was not unexpected. Besides not being sure how to say "environment" in Spanish until I went to college — it's medio ambiente, by the way — what I learned about environmentalism online and in school never landed in the culture my family comes from. As Mexican immigrants to the United States who built new lives and a family out of next to nothing, my hard-working, frugal parents didn't seriously consider suggestions to spend extra money on the dubious benefit of an "organic" label.
What I didn't recognize then, however, is that my parents had been practicing everyday environmentalism long before I was around to prod them on it.

— The New Tropic (@newtropicmiami) June 29, 2016
Most of the money-saving and cultural habits my parents keep up are inherently environmentally friendly. Reusing plastic bags and containers, recycling cans for cash, growing vegetables and herbs in the backyard, limiting our use of electricity and heating, fixing and mending things before buying new ones — these are all motivated by the same desire to conserve resources underpinning environmental ideals.
My younger self failed to recognize my parents' environmentalism because it's made up of acts of necessity and thrift. That's quite different from the mainstream eco-consumerism of today.
Latinx concern for the environment is nothing new; in fact, it's impressively widespread and well-informed.
For one, it's hard not to be worried about climate change and the environment when the consequences of the fossil fuel economy are directly affecting our neighborhoods and our health. This is true for Latinx communities on the frontlines of toxic emissions, where air pollution from proximity to gas and oil facilities creates elevated risks for asthma and cancer. These health consequences are compounded for frontline Latinx neighborhoods because they are often low-income and have less access to health insurance and care.
In a very personal and literal sense, Latinxs can't afford not to care about the environment.
Despite many of Latinxs experiencing first-hand the scarily palpable effects of fossil-fuel pollution and climate change, most Latinxs still feel distanced from mainstream environmentalism. But identifying with the massive movements to protect the environment and fight climate change is difficult when the figureheads of those movements don't look like you or speak your language.
In the United States, the mainstream environmental movement (markedly different from locally-led grassroots movements) has historically been organized by and for white people, often at the expense of people of color. As a result, Latinx communities — along with other marginalized communities of color — have been excluded from environmental discourse and policy-making, creating the false perception that people of color simply don't care about the environment.
The legacy of that exclusion persists to this day. People of color are greatly underrepresented in the largest and most prominent environmental advocacy NGOs, and smaller, local environmental groups that serve vulnerable communities receive much less funding and resources than their larger, more visible counterparts.
There's no quick-fix here, but it's clear that we have to overcome the cultural disconnect that circumvents Latinx inclusion in the environmental movement. We can start by providing platforms for diverse Latinx voices and perspectives on environmentalism to exist and be heard.
That's exactly why we're starting this blog series featuring Latinx writers exploring environmentalism as it pertains to our individual experiences, backgrounds, and communities.
In the process, we hope to expand perceptions of environmentalism and validate those stories that fall outside the mainstream to encourage broader and empowered participation. For the success of the movement, we need wider recognition that true environmental justice cannot exist without a foundation of inclusion. The threats posed by a Trump presidency only compound the urgency of our mission.

Developmental phase of laminitis
What happens before pain is observed?
The developmental or prodromal phase of laminitis can only be truly observed when an event which is known to initiate laminitis occurs. The date and time of the onset of this condition until the date and time of the first symptoms of pain or laminitis, defines the duration of this phase.
Laminitis is often a sequel to a disease or condition which in some cases triggers laminitis.
All the listed conditions below are known to induce laminitis.
- Excess of carbohydrates (accidental access grain or over feeding)
- Obesity (lush pasture)
- Enteritis
- Colitis
- Peritonitis
- Metritis & retained placenta
- Azoturia
- Cushing's Disease
- Equine Metabolic Syndrome
Generally the duration of the developmental phase is considered to last just a few days or hours at most, as a rule the triggering event will cause laminitis in a very short time. When the triggering event is unknown as in obesity induced laminitis, it's impossible to define the duration of the developmental phase, which in these cases can be months.
The speed of heel growth, the shape and strength of the hoof will determine the duration of the developmental phase and the severity of the subsequent laminitis.
Dorsal Wall Lifting in the developmental phase
The DWLT model of laminitis proposes that the systemic diseases which are associated with laminitis are not acting directly on the sensitive laminae but cause the heels of the hoof capsule to grow faster than normal. The laminae and other sensitive structures are then traumatised as the hoof capsule distorts beyond normal limits. The speed of heel growth, the shape and strength of the hoof will determine the duration of the developmental phase and the severity of the subsequent laminitis.
Despite encountering what could be a triggering event or being obese, not all equines become laminitic, one possible reason is that weak hoof capsules with flaring or dissipating heels will harmlessly splay outwards when the heels start to grow faster (Fig 1) and not cause the hoof capsule to distort at the toe. Another reason may be that rapid heel growth is not always initiated in some cases.
Generally, stronger hoof capsules are intolerant to rapid heel growth and become severely laminitic while weak flaring hooves don't distort at the toe so the laminae are not traumatised.

Intellectual disability gene discovered
Intellectual disability is a broad term describing individuals with limitations in mental abilities and in functioning in daily life. It affects one to three per cent of the population and is often caused by genetic defects.
A team at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, led by Dr John Vincent, has identified defects on the gene, MAN1B1, among five families in which 12 children had intellectual disability.
The subjects affected had similar physical features, and all had delays in walking and speaking. Some learned to care for themselves, while others needed help bathing and dressing. In addition, some had epilepsy.
All were found to have two copies of a defective MAN1B1 gene, one inherited from each parent. These were different types of mutations on the same gene — yet the outcome, intellectual disability, was the same in different families, confirming this gene was the cause of the disorder.
"This mutation was seen in five families, which is one of the most seen so far for genes causing this form of recessive intellectual disability," Vincent said.
MAN1B1 codes an enzyme that has a quality control function in cells. This enzyme is believed to have a role in "proofreading" specific proteins after they are created in cells, and then recycling faulty ones, rather than allowing them to be released from the cell into the body. With the defective gene, this does not occur.

How do you normally get your leads?
Our clients use a variety of different options to procure leads. An obvious first option is to simply purchase them. If you want to generate leads yourself, however, you will probably need a multi-tiered strategy. You can, of course, run ads on Google or Bing, send mailers, run TV ads or utilize advanced SEO to drive organic traffic to your web properties.
All of these are great options, but many lead companies find great success by engaging in social media advertising. As much as Twitter has tried to launch advertising options and although Instagram and Snapchat are surging, Facebook is still king. The average Facebook user spends over 30 minutes a day on Facebook, so having an ability to deliver your message to them is a great way to generate leads. Furthermore, Facebook has a great ability to provide you with the exact audience you are looking for, delivering your ads straight to users' cell phones or web browsers.
While these attributes make Facebook a good social media advertising option, the feature that makes Facebook a great lead generation option is Facebook Lead Ads.
What Are Facebook Lead Ads?
Facebook Lead Ads work like any other Facebook ad campaign but with one added dimension, a lead form. This lead form is great for lead generators for two reasons:
- The Facebook user never has to leave Facebook to complete the form.
- Many lead fields can be populated directly from the user's profile instead of having the user fill out those fields.
As an internet marketer and a lead generator, you are probably aware of an important rule of lead generation: The probability of a lead conversion is directly correlated to the ease of lead submission. People are bombarded with information constantly and usually have very short attention spans when browsing the internet, so every opportunity to shave off a few steps from the process can give a lead gen company a huge advantage.
With Facebook Lead ads, users are able to submit a lead using the information straight from their Facebook accounts. This shaves off valuable minutes that would have otherwise been spent typing in basic information such as Name and Email. As a lead gen company, you can also control what additional information you want to collect. You can stick with just the basic contact info or ask additional information such as "Mortgage amount".
How Can You Integrate Facebook Lead Ads Into Your Existing Process
That's where we come in. At boberdoo, we have created a direct integration that allows you to post Facebook Lead Ads submissions straight into your system. Once they are posted in, they are treated just like any other lead, with the ability to sell them in real-time to all your buyers, track them, and bill for them. You can also run advanced reports and compare these leads with your other lead generation methods.
If you are an existing boberdoo user looking to get started with Facebook Lead Ads, please read our integration guide.

VA's BEST OF 2015: GREAT TUNES FROM A ROTTEN YEAR
(Graphic by VA)
My year-end recap is appearing late, just as it usually did back on Open Salon. But I see this as a victory that I am even getting this up online as my blogging has largely been in deep freeze since the shuttering of Open Salon—which housed the former flagship (and much more widely read) version of this blog—in March 2015.
OS shutting down is but just one fabaroony event of many that helped make 2015 a particularly rotten, rotten year for me (and I had thought 2012 was a bad one…). Mind you, last year seemed like a less than fine one around the world as well as for a high proportion of people I know, for seemingly a variety of reasons. That's the nature of life, sometimes, so I guess I'm not an outlier in that regard. Misery and company, etc. etc.
Enough of the Deborah Downer … On the plus side, there was lots of terrific tuneage and related media to lift the spirits. And so, without further adieu, here are 15 foci from 15: the soundtrack highlights to one crappadoodles set of twelve months, starting with … Continue reading
5×5: My "Best Of" Musical Round-Up for 2010
NOTE TO READERS: Owing to the March 2015 closure of OpenSalon.com — which was my primary publishing platform, where I initiated this blog and concert series project, and was where most of my pieces were accessed — I need to plug up a few blog-holes (i.e., post-up here a clutch of early Open Salon blog entries that I never transferred to this cyberabode). This post is one of those orphaned Ghosts of Blogging Past that needs a re-debut.
In advance of my Best of 2015 recap (appearing shortly), here is my first year-end music entry from February 2011: 5×5: My "Best Of" Musical Round-Up for 2010. While I am republishing the list as I saw it at that time, I've reconsidered some of my choices in the interim. Here's how I would rank 2010 now from a 2016 perspective: Continue reading
Take Five: My 5th Anniversary
"Daydreaming days in a daydream nation," from "Trilogy" by Sonic Youth, Daydream Nation (1988). The world of blogging itself is a daydream nation … (Photo and Mockup by VA)
This month marks the fifth anniversary of the My Life — In Concert! blog which I started over on Open Salon back on June 3, 2010. For the uninitiated, this blog is a gig-by-gig memoir of my life as an avid concertgoer, chronicling my unabated passion from Roxy Music in February 1975 through until my present day. While I am looking at these shows from my own personal lens, I am writing not just about the music but also the ticks, quirks and details of the larger Music Life experience surrounding these shows, artists or scenes. I also write of other music and media interests on my radar as well. Continue reading
Four & (Hopefully) More: My Fourth Blogiversary
"I'm going to get a sip of water. I'll be back … Talk to each other or something … Mill around for a second …" (Cover mock up by VA)
NOTE: This anniversary marked my starting the My Life — In Concert! blog over on Open Salon four years ago and much of the text below was written for the then-OS audience. As I am publishing my previous anniversary posts for the first time over here on WordPress, I am republishing this 4th anniversary today. My 5th anniversary blog will be up tomorrow.
Four years on from when I started this blog project (initially only on Open Salon), and OS and I are still chugging along. On my third anniversary, I lamented how the site was a shadow of its former self, but on this fourth benchmarker I actually feel more positive and upbeat. Continue reading
Three is a Magic Number: My Third Anniversary (originally on OpenSalon.com)
It Takes Two: My Second Anniversary (originally on Open Salon)
It was two years ago today when I first hit that "Publish" button on Open Salon. It not only marked the start of many hours spent happily devoted to working on the My Life — In Concert! series, but also the initiation of online interaction with a group of some terrific writers and all-round interesting folks. Much here makes each of us sigh, groan, and roll our eyes at one time or another, but I believe that's massively overruled by the positive creations and input on OS, participating in what is essentially a virtual writing and arts group. It's all about the collective sum. Continue reading

About this Research Topic
The interest in structure and function of the prefrontal cortex as a key of high-order human cognitive mechanisms is not diminishing at least since the famous case of Phineas Gage. Neuropsychological studies have predominantly emphasized on different areas of the prefrontal cortex, i.e. ventromedial, dorsolateral and orbitofrontal, as well as the frontal pole being of pivotal role in different cognitive mechanisms. As neuroimaging studies, predominantly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and functional MRI spread we have learnt more and more about areas involved in decision-making, moral cognition, mentalisation and problem-solving, to just name a few. These aspects are undoubtedly considered of key importance in most psychiatric conditions with a crucial influence on clinical aspects, social function and prognosis. A large number of studies suggested relatedness between structural and functional changes, as well as disturbances in the connectivity of the prefrontal cortex and other cortical and subcortical areas and cognitive alterations in major psychiatric disorders. With non-invasive modulation techniques as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) we have the opportunity to influence certain cognitive mechanisms and thus infer their relatedness to specific areas of the prefrontal cortex. More recently, eye tracking measures are applied as a reflection of executive and social functions related to prefrontal cortices. The combination of these investigative methods might yield even more insight into the specificity of neurocognitive functioning linked to prefrontal areas.
This Research Topic aims to explore the precise role of different prefrontal areas in the regulation of certain cognitive mechanisms. Opinion papers, reviews and original empirical research from all areas of the discipline are welcome. Reports supporting the argument of a univocal link between a distinct area and a specific function or subset of cognitive mechanisms as well as data suggesting a network of complex interconnected pathways in the background of cognitive function and disturbances in different psychiatric disorders are likewise of interest and considered.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- neuropsychological testing of executive function, decision-making, social cognition and other high-order prefrontal mechanisms in psychiatric disturbances
- neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies related to structure and function of prefrontal cortical areas, related cognitive disturbances
- the use of eye tracking in the detection, measurement and monitoring of neurocognitive changes
- the influence of neurocognitive alterations on social function, prognosis and clinical symptomatology of psychiatric disorders
- effects of non-invasive modulation techniques on cognitive mechanisms and the link to clinical symptomatology
- arguments supporting or debating the univocal, rather didactical relatedness of distinct prefrontal cortical areas and specific cognitive mechanisms
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.

With dark gray upperparts and a neat white tip to the tail, the Eastern Kingbird looks like it's wearing a business suit. And this big-headed, broad-shouldered bird does mean business—just watch one harassing crows, Red-tailed Hawks, Great Blue Herons, and other birds that pass over its territory. Eastern Kingbirds often perch on wires in open areas and either sally out for flying insects or flutter slowly over the tops of grasses. They spend winters in South American forests, where they eat mainly fruit.More ID Info
In overgrown fields near forest edges, scan for a large, dark-backed flycatcher atop a shrub, fencepost, or wire. Wait for it to sally out to catch an insect, and look for an all-white belly and white-tipped tail. On country drives you can also often spot them as they sit on fence wires; it also helps to learn their distinctive call note, which sounds like an electric spark or zap. You can see Eastern Kingbirds starting in March or April until they head south again in late July or August.
Kingbirds may visit open yards with nearby trees, scattered vegetation, and lots of insects. Berry bushes may help attract them, particularly in late summer and fall.
The Cornell Lab will send you updates about birds, birding, and opportunities to help bird conservation.

Introduction|Intro|Background} Autoresponder Plr
Within this Market Hero review, I will reveal some email advertising secrets which are so great, you are going to want to crawl buck-naked across broken glass just to locate them. Autoresponder Plr
But first, I want to say"thank you" to Alex Becker, the founder of Market Hero.
I started watching Alex Becker's YouTube movies back in 2016. He taught me how to conduct a Shopify shop, and that a bunch of stuff online advertising, regarding entrepreneurship.
It was right around the time that Alex published his book, The 10 Pillars of Wealth: Mind-Sets of The World's Richest People. I got that book once I watched it and I proceeded to emphasize it and mark it up using notes. I might move re-read it as soon as I finish this.
Actually, Market Hero isn't even his only multi-million dollar company. The search engine optimization software development company Source Wave was also founded by him and he is running a nutritional supplement brand. He's also got a couple of classes out there from the market teaching people to grow their lists and market more.
The dude is a vending machine. My hat's off to you, Alex.
Sign up for the free trial here: Market Hero
What's Market Hero?
Anyway, Market Hero is one of the best email Since it concentrates on in-depth sales metrics, autoresponders available on the market today and it is so much better than its rivals.
I've used a lot of email autoresponder software through time, such as MadMimi and Drip. Drip was my favorite up until I started using Market Hero. Drip allows you like monitor your open rates to do lots of stuff and label your subscribers.
But if you're anything like me, while you take care of open rates and click-through rates, the thing that matters is SALES. Sales are the lifeblood of your business and sales is what places cold, hard cash in your pocket. Market Hero makes it possible to track sales, simple and plain.
Market Hero Service
While I did not have to use Market Hero service that They return to me since everything is, the few times that I did reach out to them. Autoresponder Plr
The support isn't great to the point at which they supply you with detailed step-by-step videos and hold your hand through each step of the way, however it isn't terrible. If you need that level of hand-holding and coddling, perhaps Market Hero isn't for you.
Market Hero has English-speaking support staff available to answer your questions through live chat for free. Like some firms do, you do not need to be part of any plan or package that is updated to possess priority support. You simply log in and begin chatting.
Can Market Hero Really 4X Your Enterprise?
On Market Hero's homepage, one of those headings You will see says,"4X Your Email Business With Unequaled Delivery and Sales Metrics". This immediately set my B.S. sensor because I know how hard it is to 4X an email sequence, especially if you're any good at everything you are doing.
However, Market Hero provides a free trial so I figured I'd register and see whether it had been any good. I guessed that I only require a little increase in sales for Market Hero to pay for itself and if it did 4X my enterprise, I'd be flying high.
Now, in the interest of full disclosure I do want to inform you that Market Hero has NOT improved my sales 4X (yet), but I am gaining more earnings than previously and Market Hero IS paying for itself. Easily, in fact. I was doing well and had my email game tight, so I knew a 4X increase would be tough.
But in case you're new to email marketing or if you have a smaller internet business, Market Hero could probably 4X your sales. Here is the way:
It monitors your customers' lifetime value.
I know I already mentioned this, but the secret to Market Hero is the way that it keeps your customers' lifetime value (LTV) in front of you at all times and it changes as you send emails out and tweak your own autoresponder. As soon as you understand your client value, it's possible to literally"buy" customers. What Market Hero does is each conversion for every lead on your list and monitor every sale. It averages everything together and gives you the stats you want to cultivate your organization.
If you were to do this manually, then you would probably have to experience different programs, different spreadsheets, and return through your prior earnings. You would have to crunch a lot of numbers that are unique that you don't have anymore. Market Hero solves this problem better than anybody else available on the industry.
You're able to section using tags.
Subscribe to the free trial : Market Hero
I understand that you're probably thinking,"Tags? Okay… big thing." But the way that Market Hero lets you use tags is much better. This is why…
Let us say that I am running two different opt-in campaigns for the same audience. Anyone who opts-in to the first campaign is going to be tagged as"A" and anybody who opts-in to the next campaign is going to be tagged as"B".
I will enter Market Hero and filter out all the"B" opt-ins and find out how much they're worth in contrast to"A" opt-ins. If I find out that the"B" opt-ins are earning more money, I know that I should be pouring more advertising dollars into advertising the"B" opt-in. Autoresponder Plr
Should you do this again and again, you can build a powerful business because you will always be split-testing to see which kinds of individuals are worth more to your enterprise.
And getting this up and running will be super-easy too. All you have to do is choose the pixel which Market Hero gives you and put it in the regions that you would like to monitor. From there, Market Hero will keep tabs on all your clients, sales, conversions, etc., to supply you with the data which you need to cultivate your business.
You're able to incorporate with a lot of other services.
Inside Market Hero, there is a button called"integrations" that – you guessed it helps you incorporate with matters like ClickFunnels, SamCart, Shopify, Leadpages, Zapier, and more.
I believe that this is a wise move by Alex Becker since it shows that he knows his market. He understands that are using things such as this and he wants to make sure that his applications integrates.
My sole criticism is that a lot of the software I use, for example OptinMonster and Thrive Topics has not been placed in the"integrations" tab. That does not mean that you CAN'T integrate thembecause you can (you use Zapier to make them speak to each other) but it's not quite as simple as something like ClickFunnels or even Shopify.
Speaking of Shopify…
How Is This Different From Autoresponders?
The best method for me is that of The other autoresponders were created for email marketers. Their thinking has its own limits and I send mails although I have nothing against email marketers. Market Hero was constructed by means of a business owner FOR business owners.
Market Hero differs because it provides you with a lot of different ways to assist you track ROI and create more profit from the own emails.
By way of example, among the coolest features is that it shows you how much each lead is worth. Imagine logging in to your email autoresponder and seeing that every lead is worth $6.87 for you. That means that you can go out and"buy" email addresses to make money. What you do is that you buy paid traffic from Google, Facebook, etc. and send that traffic into an opt-in page. If you can get a prosperous opt-in for less money than it is worth, you get a business. As you can simply rinse and repeat as many times.
It also allows you to segment your list in far deeper ways than other autoresponder services out there. As I saidI utilized Drip and they have some fairly decent segmentation tools from the ability to apply tags to your leads, but it is small potatoes compared Market Hero. I really don't want to give any of Market Hero's proprietary info, but let us just say you will most likely be pleased with the segmentation ability. Autoresponder Plr
Is Market Hero a Scam?
From what I have seen, absolutely not. I think that At this point, by being a scam artist Alex Becker has to lose. He is running businesses and he's smart enough to understand that when his reputation was tarnished by him, he'd be screwed.
From what I have seen, people have complained about his refund policy. Nevertheless, these individuals are usually the ones who have used Market Hero for months and attempt to get all their money back. These are the real scammers. If you are not willing to pay money for a service which may enhance your business and your life, you are scum. Plain and simple.
Market Hero's free trial offer is really straightforward. It states that if you cancel within 14 days then anything won't be charged.
Rest assured, gentle reader. Market Hero is untrue.
If You've Shopify (Or Any Online Business…)
When I started composing this Market Hero review, I Was worried it was going to lean a bit too much. That's why I want to stress this Market Hero can assist you in ANY online business, not simply Shopify.
On his YouTube station, Alex has posted a great deal of different videos about Shopify. When you get beyond the names that are clickbait-style, you discover that he provides a whole lot of helpful info about the best way to make money. Part of the reason that he does so is because he wants to get people to test out Market Hero because he knows it can help them.
For example, Market Hero allows you to create abandoned cart strings. Whenever someone starts the checkout process in Shopify (by entering their email) but doesn't complete it, that has tracked in Market Hero. From that point, you can follow up with that person and get them back to complete their purchase.
The capacity to make these abandoned cart sequences is only one of the ways that it is possible to earn Market Hero literally cover itself. Let us do some math…
Depending on the study that you browse, the ordinary cart abandonment rate for an online shop is generally somewhere in the area of 70-80%. Are there individuals with abandonment prices? Sure, but this is the average.
Imagine that you have 100 people go through your checkout process and 80 of those individuals abandon your cart. This means you have 20 clients and 80 non-customers. Imagine if a cart recovery sequence got a 10 percent of this non-customers to buy?
That will get you an additional 8 customers. This means that you would increase your earnings 40%! (Because 8 additional sales is 40% of the 20 earnings you had.)
In the event that you boosted your earnings 40 percent, would that justify the investment in Market Hero? But that is not all…
Market Hero also lets you create upsell sequences. Could you create such sequences? Yes, you can. It is nowhere near as fluid and it will not provide you that lifetime customer value, although I am completely transparent about that. Autoresponder Plr
The motive Market Hero is so strong is because you're able to apply tags and monitor LTV. When you link Market Hero into Shopify, it begins tracking immediately. Buy tags are applied that show you who bought which goods.
Imagine you have a Shopify shop selling print-on-demand dog tops. If a person bought a pug shirt, then it would be silly to try and market Golden Retriever things to this person? But that is since they do not have the data in front of them, what a lot of entrepreneurs do. Because Market Hero enables you to see what the individual purchased, you can concentrate on selling only pug-related stuff.
You can totally geek out with this stuff. You can get as comprehensive intricate as you like. In my private business, I use it to section the subjects that advisors want to know more about. I do not need to bombard them because they would be immaterial because I market products that assist advisors GET customers and let them KEEP customers, if a person is interested in KEEPING clients. That person would unsubscribe.
Oh, and if you're interested, here's a video of Alex Becker showing you how you can increase your own Shopify revenue 300 percent with Market Hero. Just keep in mind that Market Hero can be used with ANY online business, not only Shopify.
Market Hero is an email software that is awesome because It's built for those that are currently trying to earn money on the internet. If you haven't completed So already, go over there, import your listing and take advantage of this free trial.
You can't afford to not know your numbers for one more month. That's like Driving blind. You are leaving a huge, if you do not know your numbers Amount of money. Imagine how much more money you can make if you Knew precisely what every lead was worth. How would your own decisions alter? How would that alter your life? Autoresponder Plr

Wissenschaftler des Max-Planck-Instituts für Plasmaphysik und des Fritz-Haber-Instituts haben eine neue Quelle von langsamen Elektronen in Wasser entdeckt
For more information please contact: Melanie Mucke, Uwe Hergenhahn
When high-energy photons, such as X-rays, interact with an atom or molecule, energy is transferred in a process known as photoionization. This results in an ionized atom/molecule and a free electron. When embedded in condensed matter, such released electrons might undergo multiple collisions while traveling through the sample. This causes the escaping electron to lose energy. Until recently, the multiple collision effect was commonly considered the root of all low-energy electrons produced from ionizing radiation. However, researchers of the Max Planck Institute of Plasma Physics and the Fritz Haber Institute have now identified an additional source of low-energy electrons in water. The results of the Berlin team are substantial, as it is thought that DNA molecules are susceptible to damage from low-energy electrons. Their work has been published in the journal Nature Physics.

To give transportation authorities the most advanced security tools, they must be designed especially for the constraints of mass transit. The Surface Transportation Explosive Threat Detection Program mission is to do just that — provide mass transit operators with integrated, layered solutions for explosives detection that mitigates public safety threats.
A layered solution in one where omnipresent video sensors are placed throughout the transportation system — from curb to platform — which performs leave-behind object mitigation and standoff detection. But every solution has got to embed seamlessly in the natural flow of mass transit systems, as well as for large crowd event scenarios.
DHS S&T saves #police valuable time w/Curb to Platform approach to securing subways, trains, crowds @Amtrak @WMATA https://t.co/LbZ2S4Mq0R pic.twitter.com/HJJU0G8KhA
— DHS S&T (@dhsscitech) October 5, 2017
Mass transit systems are open, with no fixed checkpoints and a passenger throughput four to six times the most challenging airport environment, said Don Roberts, program manager for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science & Technology (S&T) Directorate Surface Transportation Program in a TechTalk Facebook live broadcast.
"No one is going to show up two hours early to ride a subway," he said.
Safety, Privacy & Practicality
For explosives detection to be relevant to mass transit, safety and privacy are critical to design, Roberts said. They also must be cost-effective and work in systems that may be more than 100 years old, like Boston's subway.
He said DHS's Surface Transportation Explosive Threat Detection Program began by embedding teams in mass transit systems. They are also working with the Transportation Security Administration to help understand the requirements and capability gaps of the transit sector, and to facilitate test beds for the explosives detection technologies being developed.
S&T is working on explosive threat detection systems designs that offer emissions hundreds of times lower than cellphones: "Orders of magnitude less emissions than public radio waves," Roberts said.
On the privacy front, they are working with recent developments in automated target recognition – "so the computer is going to be looking, not some individual looking at an individual," said Roberts, adding, that would be too slow.
Right now, Roberts and his teams are working with local agencies to test a forensic video exploitation and analysis tool (Fovea) and highly specialized K9s that can detect explosives in moving targets. They are also exploring recent breakthroughs in antennae design and signal processing that could "work at the speed of the traveling public," he said.
Rapid Video Analysis Technology to Improve Explosives Detection
Fovea is being tested in the Washington D.C. subway, by the Washington Metro Area Transit Authority and for special events in the capital. It's also being tested in partnership with Amtrak, and, along with standoff detection, in an old Mass Bay Transportation Authority station somewhere in the Boston area.
There are near-, mid- and long-term goals for explosives detection, but Fovea will be ready to meet near-term objectives because it is going through developmental testing and evaluation. Fovea is going to make the job of the mass transit video analyst much more efficient and effective:
What used to take hours and days takes minutes and hours to be able to assess potential leave behind mitigation, tracking people through the system that may be of interest, being able to capture the surrounding circumstances behind a potential leave behind bag," said Roberts.
Fovea will give mass transit operations that technology. "It's been very much a success story from the end-user standpoint," said Roberts, noting the program is on track to complete proof of concept in less than two years.
The next step is to automate Fovea:
ICYMI: S&T and our partners are developing tech to help secure #transportation hubs from curb to platform: https://t.co/L2fD9KiFSP
— DHS S&T (@dhsscitech) November 9, 2017
Explosives Detection K9s
As a longer-term goal, S&T is focused on looking to see inside bags and objects for potential threat items. The challenge is documenting requirements for the technology in mass transit scenarios, and explaining to technology companies what is needed.
However, Roberts is also directing the surface transportation K9 program. He described explosives detection K9s as the most versatile, mobile, flexible detection in the arsenal.
About 200 "person search types K9s" can actually assess vapor coming off of a moving individual or object. So they can work in crowded environments because they are trained to assess moving targets.
S&T is testing the specialized K9s efficacy, strengths and weaknesses for surface transportation and large crowd scenarios in partnership with local law enforcement agencies. A series of testing — parametric assessments — with the dogs will establish an operations and maintenance framework for agencies. The goal is for them to understand what they can rely on the specialized K9s for, as well as what it takes to care for them.

Gym teacher Megan Mahoney charged with 30 counts of statutory rape
A FORMER gym teacher at a prestigious Catholic high school has been charged with having sex numerous times with a male student.Megan Mahoney, 24, was charged with 30 counts of statutory rape for a series of trysts with the 16-year-old boy that police say took place over a three-month period, the New York Post reports.
Court papers allege that Mahoney, a teacher at Moore Catholic High School in New York, had sex with the teen "at least two times per week".
Earlier this year, the boy told The Post that his relationship with Mahoney developed after she approached him in the school's gym and offered to coach him in basketball.
He recalled boasting about his experiences to his best friend and classmates, who responded by saying, "How awesome — good job."
Mahoney, who also coached the girls' basketball team, quit her teaching job in January after she was spotted with the boy by his ex-girlfriend at a local pizza restaurant.
The former teacher could serve up to four years in jail for each felony charge. She was released on bail.
Mahoney is one of two former female basketball coaches at the Catholic school who have been reported in The New York Post and other media of having sexual relationships with students.
The Post reported that the boy's mother claims she informed the Archdiocese in April, but got no reply.
Postiglione stepped down from his role as Moore Catholic's athletics director, but remains the school's director of finance and operations, the Post says.

Lillian August cites Walk Bridge, mall for South Norwalk closure
In a second big retail closure in South Norwalk in as many weeks, Lillian August announced it is shutting its SoNo annex, with the furnishings company steering customers to its flagship store in Norwalk or new retail locations in Stamford and Greenwich.
Co-owners Dan and John Weiss cited the potential for neighborhood disruptions in the Connecticut Department of Transportation's plan to replace the Walk Bridge a few blocks north that carries Metro-North and Amtrak trains across the Norwalk River. And they noted the construction of the SoNo Collection mall at the West Avenue gateway to South Norwalk off Interstate 95.
The closure comes on the heels of Klaffs ending a long run a few blocks away on Washington Street in South Norwalk, with the company having briefly run a clearance outlet inside Lillian August's SoNo annex at 85 Water St. Lillian August had previously ceded a portion of its SoNo Square space on Water Street to the 1777 Co., which briefly ran a retail outlet with unique merchandise before converting the store to an outlet for its Ranger Ready insect repellent.
Separately in August, the Connecticut Design Center furniture store closed on West Avenue in Norwalk after three decades in business.
Lillian August created the company's first retail outlet in 1987 in Westport alongside her sons, who then created a sprawling store in 2003 at 32 Knight St. The company closed a Manhattan store in 2016. John Weiss handles business operations, with Dan in charge of sourcing merchandise.
"The past 20 years in South Norwalk have been a big part of our success and it is always difficult to close a store but we believe that this ultimately benefits the company and our customers," stated John Weiss as quoted in a Lillian August press release on Monday. "The Sono Annex closing positions us to focus more on the growing opportunities that we see for our other locations."
Lillian August is offering employees the option of working at its other stores, having opened a new, 6,000-square-foot showroom this summer at 195 Greenwich Ave. in Greenwich, and recently completed renovations at its Stamford warehouse that is now open for retail sales at 47 John St. in the city's South End.
The company plans to offer merchandise in South Norwalk on clearance, and ship any unsold pieces to Stamford.
