First, let's make a mention of the DSP RTS library as it's a relevant component on which C6RunApp itself builds on. The TI CGT (which stands for Code Generation Tools and is essentially the DSP side compiler, linker and other binary utilities) C6000 contains a library of standard C functions which is aptly called the Run Time Support (RTS) library. As you would expect from such, it contains implementations of regularly used C lib functions such as printf and scanf. But of course, the problem is not writing C lib function implementations on the DSP (which is quite a capable processor) - it's things that actually require GPP side capabilities such as file system access (which in turn can also provide console input and output). The implementations of these functions in the RTS use a number of base lower-level functions (such as open, close, read and write) to carry out the needed GPP side communication, which can be user-defined. For example, if one is using the CCS (Code Composer Studio) for the development process, CCS has the driver which provides the communication between the host which is running the development environment and the DSP, so that you can see the terminal output and access local files.
Of course, this is not a very convenient scenario as we are dependent on the CCS for file system access. Why not just the GPP side OS (that is, the Ångström distribution) instead? This is one of the underlying ideas for C6RunApp: we have a host application on the GPP side which recieves requests over DSP/Link, performs the necessary file system calls, and passes back the results over to the DSP again. Another idea is that the GPP host app takes care of setting up the DSP/Link and loads the DSP with the DSP-side executable without any effort from the user. Combining these two ideas that provide us with "verbose" DSP side programs and abstract away the details of DSP/Link, we get easier DSP side development - we get C6RunApp!
C6RunApp Workflow
So what happens when you want to compile hello_world.c using the C6RunApp cross-compiler script? Let's have a look here first, and then we'll examine the involved libraries in some more detail. This is what the C6RunApp readme file has to say on the subject (with some small clarifications from me):
- The DSP tools are used to build the supplied source and link it against the prebuilt C6RunApp DSP-side library. The result is the complete DSP-side executable image in standard TI COFF format.
- The DSP executable image is minimized in size by using the symbol stripping tool, strip6x.
- The contents of the stripped DSP executable file are converted to a C byte array in a temporary C header file. This header file is referenced by the main GPP-side C6RunApp loader, and thus the DSP executable image will be embedded into the final resulting GPP executable.
- The main C6RunApp loader program is built using the ARM cross compiler tools, including the DSP-side executable inside of the binary ARM ELF executable. This ARM executable is the same name as specified on the command line of the C6RunApp cross-compiler script.
- Once the GPP executable is ran, it sets up the DSP/Link, loads the DSP with the in-built DSP executable and initializes needed communication channels (namely, constructing the GPP->DSP message queue and locating the DSP->GPP message queue).
- The GPP executable waits for the DSP to send it file system call requests, performs the requested ones and sends back the results, until it receives a signal that it can terminate.
- Teardown is performed on the DSP/Link setup and the DSP is cleanly shut down.
C6RunApp Components
Let's have a look at the pieces of which C6RunApp consists:
- The DSP side library, C6RunApp_dsp.lib - the library which the user-provided code is linked against, contains entry and exit points for the DSP/BIOS, initializes the communication channels and starts running the user-defined main(). It provides implementations of writemsg and readmsg which the DSP RTS lib bases the low-level communications on. These implementations pass the requested function call to the GPP via the message queue and read back the result in the same manner.
- The GPP side library, C6RunApp_gpp.lib - the library that contains the functions which serve the DSP's C I/O requests.
- The GPP main object, C6RunApp_load.o - once the DSP side executable is created and turned into a header file, the binary object C6RunApp_load.o is linked against the GPP side library to create the final GPP executable
- The kernel modules - not really components so much as dependencies. C6RunApp utilizes CMEM for the initial loading of the DSP executable, the LPM to do a clean shutdown of the DSP as is needed on OMAP3530s, and the DSP/Link module for some obscure purpose :)
Hopefully this will have provided some insight into how the magic of C6RunApp works - coming up next (but sooner this time!) is where my GSoC project DSP-RPC-POSIX fits in with all of this.

Upstate New York is experimenting with a program to encourage economic growth by eliminating all taxes for companies that team up with a state college or university, and Cornell University has its first customer. The Ithaca institution will be working with Incodema3D, a spin-off of Incodema, a rapid-metal prototyping firm.
The start-up will be working with faculty to develop new processes and materials for 3D printing that involves metal additives. (Most 3D printing uses various forms of plastic.)
The START-UP NY concept was introduced last year by New York's governor, Andrew Cuomo as a way to woo start-ups, companies that relocate to New York and New York companies that expand within the state and create new jobs. They pay no taxes — including business, corporate, sales, property or income — for a period of 10 years. But these same companies must partner with an upstate school, which provides the "tax-free space" or "zone."
At Cornell, the program is overseen by the division of Human Resources and Safety Services. "We are thrilled to be among the first university-company partnerships getting off the ground through START-UP NY," said Mary Opperman, vice president of that division. "Cornell's partnership with Incodema3D, a company with existing deep ties to the local economy in Tompkins County, is sure to result in a mutually beneficial relationship while creating jobs and boosting economic growth within our region."
The start-up operation will work with Hod Lipson, associate professor of mechanical engineering and computer science and an expert in 3-D printing; and Emmanuel Giannelis, a professor in materials science and engineering, who will help Incodema3D develop novel metals suitable for 3D printing.
"It's exciting to see high-tech manufacturing making its way back to upstate New York," Lipson said. "We're particularly happy to see local manufacturers leveraging 3D printing technologies that Cornell has been pioneering for a long time. It's the ultimate sign of a rising tide."
Incodema3D will move into Cornell's business and technology park. The new company expects to create 58 new jobs within five years through the partnership.
"I truly feel this program will create a synergy between industry and education that will foster greater economic success for everyone involved," noted Incodema3D CEO Sean Whittaker.

BALTIMORE, Md. – The Yale baseball team
got three RBI from four different players and solid pitching in all
16 innings of the season-opening doubleheader at Maryland-Baltimore
County en route to sweeping the host Retrievers by scores of 7-3
and 11-3. Junior outfielder Andrew Kolmar led the Yale offense,
going 5-for-7 with a double, three RBI, two runs scored and a
stolen base. Junior Brook Hart and sophomore Pat Ludwig each worked
five innings as the Bulldogs' starters and earned the
victories on the mound.
"It was a good way to start the season," said Mazzuto Family Head Coach John Stuper. "We did well in all three phases of the game: pitching, fielding and swinging the bat."
In addition to Kolmar's big day at the plate, sophomore catcher Ryan Brenner hit a three-run home run, while junior third baseman Andy Megee and senior first baseman Trygg Larsson-Danforth each had two hits and three runs batted in. Megee also stole three bases and scored a pair of runs. Junior second baseman Gant Elmore and sophomore outfielder Zach Tobolowsky each had three hits in the twinbill.
The lefty Hart, making his first collegiate appearance on the hill, allowed one earned runs in five innings of work. Ludwig struck out eight batters in his five innings, allowing six hits and three earned runs. Five pitchers- Megee, Eric Shultz, Matthew Smith, Chris Finneran and Robert Gruber- combined to toss six innings of scoreless relief on the afternoon. Shultz earned the save in game one, tossing 1.2 hitting innings to close out UMBC.
Elmore led off the seven-inning opening game with a single up the middle, and Larsson-Danforth drew a two-out walk three batters later. The next batter was Brenner, who sent an offering from UMBC starter Ed Bach over the left field fence at The Baseball Factory Field at UMBC to put the Bulldogs on top, 3-0.
The Retrievers took a run back in the bottom of the second, as Tyler Drinkard led off with a single- the only time that UMBC's lead-off batter would reach in the contest. A sacrifice bunt and a pair of walks issued by Hart loaded the bases with one out. The Yale southpaw induced a groundball off the bat of Mike Lafferty, but Megee made an errant throw to the plate that allowed a run to score. Hart was unfazed, however, as he got the next batter to ground into a 6-4-3 double play to retire the side with no further damage done.
After each side went down in order in the third, UMBC put another tally on the board in its half of the fourth to cut the deficit to a single run at 3-2. Curtis Schickner provided the RBI for the Retrievers with a base hit that scored shortstop Aaron Brill.
The Bulldogs would reclaim that run, however, in their next half-inning at the plate, as a UMBC error put junior shortstop Trey Rallis on first base to start off the frame. Brenner then worked the count for a walk, and junior Andrew Moore doubled to left to plate Rallis and give Yale a 4-2 lead. The next batter, sophomore Zach Tobolowsky, followed with a single that plated Brenner and increased the Bulldogs' advantage to three runs at 5-2.
A Yale error once again gave UMBC a run in the bottom of the inning, as a throwing miscue by Hart put Max Himmelstein on second base with one down in the frame. Bryan Russo, the Retrievers' cleanup hitter, cashed in on the RBI opportunity with a single up the middle.
After the Bulldogs went down in their next half-inning, Megee relieved Hart at that point, and quickly induced a Brill flyout to start off the sixth. A pair of walks and a base hit loaded the bases ensued, and Coach Stuper wasted no time going to his closer, sophomore Eric Shultz. The 6'4" right-hander wasted no time in squashing the scoring threat, throwing just two pitches to induce a 5-3 double play- Yale's second base-loaded double play turned in the game, to retire the side.
"Shultz came on in a big spot and made the biggest play of the day," said Stuper.
Yale would tack on a pair of insurance runs in its half of the seventh, as Charlie Neil walked with one out to start the offense. Tobolowsky then singled for the second time, and took second base when the Retrievers unsuccessfully tried to catch Neil going from second to third on the hit. Junior Andrew Kolmar, who went 3-for-4 in the opening game of the twinbill, knocked both baserunners home with a single to centerfield that gave the Bulldogs a more comfortable 7-3 lead, just three outs away from a victory.
Shultz stayed in the game and pitched a hitless frame, allowing just one runner to reach on a hit-by-pitch, to earn the save as Yale closed out UMBC, 7-3.
Hart (1-0) scattered five hits over the first five innings to earn the win in his first collegiate appearance. The junior hurler allowed just one earned run while striking out two Retrievers and walking three. Bach (0-1) allowed three earned runs in four innings, surrendering five hits and one walk while striking out a pair in the losing effort.
The scoring started early in the nine-inning nightcap as well, with Megee ripping a one-out double to jumpstart the offense. After advancing to third on a groundout, Larsson-Danforth hit a two-bagger of his own to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead.
The Retrievers got their own early offensive burst, courtesy of a two-run home run off the bat of Russo. Ludwig bounced back to pitch himself out of the early jam, striking out Brill with two runners on to quell the threat.
After each team went down quietly in the second and third innings, the Bulldogs gave Ludwig some breathing room with a six-run burst. Brenner led off the frame with a double down the line, and Moore followed with a base hit to put runners on the corners. A throwing error then plated Brenner and allowed Tobolowsky to reach, and Elmore singled two batters later to load the bases. Megee cashed in on the RBI chance, slapping a single to push a pair of Yale runners across home plate. After a double steal by Megee and Elmore and a Rallis walk, Larsson-Danforth stepped up with the bags full and knocked in two runners to bring the Bulldogs' lead to a comfortable 7-2 tally.
After UMBC took a run back with a Schickner single in the bottom of the fourth, Yale put the game out of the reach with a four-run fifth inning. A Tobolowsky single sandwiched between walks from Moore and Kolmar loaded the bases for freshman centerfielder Cam Squires. The rookie speedster worked the count and drew a bases-loaded walk to earn his first career RBI. Yale then made good use of its first two outs of the frame, plating runs on an Elmore sacrifice fly and a Megee groundout. Rallis then became the ninth Bulldog to earn an RBI in the twinbill, smacking a double to right center to bring Squires around and give Yale an 11-3 lead.
After Ludwig picked up his seventh and eighth strikeouts in the fifth inning, the Yale bullpen took over and held the Retrievers scoreless for the remainder of the contest. Smith, who missed all of 2009 due to injury, struck out Schnicker looking to cap a scoreless sixth inning and posted a zero in the seventh frame as well. Finneran tossed a perfect eighth inning in his season debut, and Gruber closed out the doubleheader sweep with a scoreless ninth.
Yale and UMBC will close out their three-game series tomorrow afternoon with a single game slated for 12 p.m. The Bulldogs will then head south to the Sunshine State for eight contests at the RussMatt Central Florida Invitational.

Researchers Sequence Sweet, Juicy Genome
In the last decade scientists have managed to sequence the genomes of everything from bacteria and fruit flies to individual human beings. But often overlooked are the genomic sequences of our food. We know the genomes of apples, bananas, potatoes, wheat, rice and now watermelon.
A consortium of scientists from the United States, China and Europe has published the complete genome of the domesticated watermelon—one of the top five consumed fresh fruits—in the journal Nature Genetics. [Shaogui Guo et al., The draft genome of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) and resequencing of 20 diverse accessions]
The group compared the genomes of 20 different watermelons across three different subspecies and found it takes roughly the same number of genes to make the sweet summer fruits as it does to make us.
They researchers also found that, in the process of being selected for color, size and taste, domestic watermelon lost many of the genes that helped their wild ancestors resist disease. They hope that breeders can now use the genetic info to recover some of those natural disease defenses—as well as bringing a more nutritious, and tastier fruit to your table. Without the seeds, of course.

Hospitals Offer Creative Benefits to Recruit and Retain Nurses
Linda Childers, Monster Contributing Writer
Beyond Signing Bonuses
Realizing that sign-on bonuses don't always keep nurses in the acute-care setting, many hospitals, including Yakima, are offering creative perks to recruit new nurses and retain their existing staff. These perks include flexible scheduling, professional development, and programs designed to empower nurses and improve the hospital's corporate culture.
"We also offer all of the nurses the same pay structure," Franz says. "They receive the same compensation whether they are working in home health, the hospital or the clinics."
In 2006, Yakima began offering "Into the Blue," a four-day program, to all employees. Designed by the Pacific Institute, a training and consulting company, the program aims to maximize the spirit of leadership in every individual.
"The program essentially teaches employees how to better understand one another's personalities and temperaments and how to foster healthy relationships," says Jennifer Tate, Yakima's director of organizational health and wellness. "It shows how to remove self-imposed limits to achieve your goals."
Tate says more than 1,800 employees have gone through the program and have reported tremendous success.
"I've heard story after story of how this program has changed our employees' lives both personally and professionally," Tate says. "There was one woman who always wanted to learn how to scuba dive, and this course motivated her to do so at the age of 60. Another man closed the mortgage on his home after finishing the program."
The course complements Yakima's already strong corporate culture, Tate says.
"Our CEO sends all of our 2,000 employees a card on their birthday," she says. "On Christmas, he and the VP of nursing hand out flowers to all the nurses working that day."
While lucrative sign-on bonuses can initially attract nurses, Tate believes that a positive working environment is more important when it comes to retaining staff.
"We all spend a lot of time at work," she says. "It's important to be someplace where you feel appreciated and are able to make a difference."

Electro Freeze, a division of H.C. Duke and Son, introduces to the U.S. frozen dessert industry Genni, the first soft-serve frozen dessert quality management smartphone app.
Genni mobilizes the company's newly released Virtual Quality Management System (VQM) in the Genesis Series Soft Serve Freezer line.
"We want to give operators the ability to better manage their soft serve assets from across the store, or anywhere in the world where they can use their phone or tablet," says Tom Hotard, president. "We are providing real-time, pertinent information to manage business right now via cellular technology, the most secure method."
Genni will premier with the new Genesis Series SLX400 and SLX500 soft-serve freezers featuring VQM at the National Restaurant Association (NRA) Show in Chicago, May 18–21, 2013, in the Electro Freeze booth No. 4815.
"This is cutting-edge innovation, engineering, and product development to revolutionize the role of equipment in foodservice management," Hotard says. "We are the only U.S. frozen dessert equipment manufacturer offering an application like this."
Electro Freeze's new Virtual Quality Management System gives operators the option to make product quality adjustments, track product volume dispensed, and clean-cycle indications, as well as set alerts and security settings.
The VQM system gathers soft-serve equipment data in real time and provides statistical reports on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.
"The technology using the Genni app can communicate via cell, WiFi, or ethernet services," Hotard says. "The VQM system also allows remote diagnostic access for Electro Freeze's nationwide service teams."
The Genni app and VQM are available options on the new Genesis Series SLX400 and SLX500 soft-serve freezers.
"The VQM touch pad on the SLX400 and SLX500 freezers is intuitive and the primary machine functions are single-button activated," says Penny Klingler, vice president of sales. "This means operators don't need to scroll through multiple screens to quickly operate the machine. Our emphasis has always been on product quality and making operations more efficient for our customers. This system is crew-friendly and the data is easy for management to access and use.
"The VQM system provides the ultimate in product quality by utilizing our Adaptive Temperature Sensing (ATS), the next step in temperature control (patent pending)," says Kyle Elsom, vice president of engineering. "This, in conjunction with scroll compressor technology, gives customers the flexibility to dispense a variety of product types at the highest level of quality. You truly can taste this difference."

Mat Phillips needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 360 designs submitted by 83 freelance designers.
Neovoca will be launched this Summer. It will be a company that ' helps build a legitimate and valuable dialogue between the pharmaceutical industry (in the UK) and consumers or patient groups'. Legislation prevents the UK pharma industry from promoting Rx products to the public, Neovoca will work with regulators, the industry and patient groups to establish legitimate communications that enhance the engagement between these groups, with an emphasis on social media - but not exclusively -in a way that informs consumers about the issues facing the industry and how the pharma industry can better support their needs. Key to the success of this company will be in helping marketing departments work through the internal barriers caused by lack of knowledge of the importance of social networks and communities. We aim to be a gamechanger and would want this reflected in the logo, with the caveat that we need to be seen in a highly professional and ethical light -which is our aim. The name is loosely derived to mean 'NEW VOICE'
Primarily 3 target groups
B2B - executives/marketing/medical departments of pharmaceutical companies
B2C - patients, carers and NGOs
Regulators and Industry bodies.
Neovoca aims to sit in the middle of these 3 audiences.
We have no preconceived ideas and will be hoping for creativity that looks different - so none of the usual medical emblems or devices please. The logo and icon should be distinctive, but not totally surreal, but get across the feeling of innovative yet professional, game-changing but ethical, and an expert in the area.
The name we believe is strong and the NEW VOICE angle will hopefully come through in the logo which will be used with the icon on all digital and paper media.

Reviews (11)
"It's changed"
It seems to be different than when I bought it two years ago. The size of the squares are smaller and are not broken up individually, the product also seems to be on the dry side but none the less my dog still love the taste and I can still use it for their treat balls
"Yorkies love this"
Even though I need to break these up, the Yorkies love them. So glad the 2.5lb size is available.
"Dogs love it"
One of our dogs has a skin condition aggravated by grain, and Yummy Chummies Gold are the perfect treat for him. We did receive one bad batch (hard & smelly) but Jeffers quickly replaced it and the new batch is just like always - soft, fresh, and chewy. Thanks, Jeffers!
"Not soft, very hard"
I've used Yummy Chummies Gold treats for years, and my dog loved them. But the last 2 bags I ordered were hard as rocks, not "soft" at all. So hard I couldn't break them apart. I hope I just got a bad batch, and the company hasn't changed the recipe or baking method. Please tell the manufacturer we want our "soft, chewy" treats to be soft and chewy.
"Yummy Chummies"
My poodle loves Yummy Chummies...his favorite treat!! I like that they are grain-free.
"My dog says they're just OK"
These seem nice, but my fairly picky dog doesn't love them. She far prefers the Newman's Own Salmon and Sweet Potato treats. Those are $6/lb compared to these at $10/lb, so that makes it an easy decision.
"love Yummy Chummies"
I have a 7 yr old Wired Haired Griffon and a mixed 6 mos old German Shepherd and Retriever. They both love these treats and I am happy they are grain free. The Wild Alaskan Salmon is a great Omega 3 for their joint health too!
"Only dog treat I buy!"
I have an 8yr old cockapoo with allergies - basically if it lives on land, he can't have it. This means no meats (yep, even tried rabbit, bison, duck, and kangaroo!) and no grains. Even grass being mowed sent him into sneezing and more itching. I feed him ONLY Taste of the Wild Salmon (dry mixed with canned) and Yummy Chummie Salmon only treats. He was once a picky eater, but he LOVES these! Itching has completely stopped and his fur is beautiful, soft and silky now. Even his ear troubles disappeared. Yeah, he can have fishy breath, but he is finally healthy and content so it's no big deal at all. There is not another treat on the market that he can eat other than these. Thank goodness for the bulk bags. THANK YOU-THANK YOU Arctic Paws for making these! For us, they are literally worth their weight in GOLD. :)
"Awesome product!"
The Yummy Chummies are amazing treats and the relatively new Gold product is fantastic! I have two (2) very small Maltese who have skin allergies - scratching and chewing on their paws. Since I started giving them ONLY Yummy Chummies as their treats we have had no itchy issues! These are all natural, good products. I highly recommend them. Oh - and I can get my fur kids to do just about anything to get one as a treat. They LOVE them! (Note: You have to wash your hands after giving them though. They do smell like fish, but that's because they are fish treats.)
"Great Nibble & Kibble"
I have 2 yellow labs, and I use a couple of these as toppers for their dry food, or for a small nibble/reward when they go into thier pen. They love them. Sometimes it's the only thing my finicky 14-year female will eat in the morning. (And yes, they smell fishy, but it's fish!)
"Great Treat"
Our German Shepherd has digestive problems from time to time typical of his breed, so we try to avoid grain additives and processed treats and focus on all-meat treats. Yes, they smell fishy but no big deal for me and he loves them. We are regular purchasers.

VICTON VT800 TPMS (External Sensor)
Victon TPMS – Your Safety Is Our Priority
The most important reason we bring in VICTON TPMS to Malaysia and Singapore is the safety it brings to our road users, it help to save life !
TPMS stands for Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, it is a device that could real-time measure tyre pressure and tyre temperature and show the data on a display screen, most importantly it alarms driver if there is any abnormality to any of the tyres. For example, when tyre hits on a nails on highways and air starts to leak out from tyre, not many drivers could notice it. This is actually quite dangerous if flat tyre or unbalanced tyre pressure happened especially on highway. Even if a flat tyre does not cause accident, continue driving with a flat tyre will destroy the tyre and eventually the rim. With TPMS, the devices will alarm you in this kind of situation and you could stop and check your car safely before any unexpected incident happened.
Thanks to wireless technology, VICTON TPMS devices which consist of a Display unit and sensors are totally wireless, you do not need cable to connect the TPMS system together. With our high end model VT93x series, even the power charging is wireless, as a built in solar panel is integrated on the display unit itself to provide the required electricity.
You may ask, there are many TPMS brands on the market, why I should choose VICTON and not other brand?
Your Safety is our Priority, In VICTON, we are not only bringing you the most reliable TPMS product, our target is also to offer the most affordable product to our customer, because if the product is not affordable to mass market consumer, it defeat our purpose of keeping you safe on the road.
All VICTON products use the most advanced original INFINEON chipsets directly imported from Germany. Infineon chipset is the most reliable and accurate TPMS chipset available on the market, it is being used in more than 30 millions of vehicles in Europe and USA alone. Infineon is the market leader of TPMS chipset with accumulated sales quantity of over 2 billions count, which account for about 50% of the total TPMS chipset market over the world.
VICTON Internal Sensor Advantage:
VICTON'S Internal sensor is built of aircraft aluminium material T6803, which is highly durable and reliable under high pressure and high temperature condition. As it is installed inside tyre, the sensing of air pressure and temperature is more accurate. The battery of internal sensor could last for 7 to 8 years for normal usage of vehicle.
VICTON internal sensor achieve IPX7 water resistance international standard, which guarantees normal operation even after immersion in water for 30 minutes.
VICTON External Sensor Advantage:
VICTON'S External sensor achieve Industrial Fasteners Institute (IFI) standard, the internal sensor were tested intensively under most kinds of situation, it is impossible to loose or taken out easily, it is anti-theft as a special tool is needed to remove the sensor from the tyre valve.
VICTON external sensor achieve IPX7 water resistance international standard, which guarantee normal operation even after immerse the sensor in water for 30 minutes. Whereas for many other products on the market, only IPX6 standard is met and it will become malfunction after immerse in water.
VICTON external sensor uses INFINEON TPMS solution, a patented technology which automatic activate the sensor during driving and keep the sensor in idle mode during parking, greatly reduces the power consumption and extends battery's life. For other brand sensor without this patented technology, the sensor keeps working even during parking for long time. This greatly increases the power consumption hence battery life.
Display Screen Advantage:
Always 4 sets of tyre data are shown together on VICTON TPMS display, users could read and compare all real time data at one time. Unlike some product in the market which only shows one data at one time, it will affect to driving safety as drivers are distracted as they need to wait for 4 sets of data to be shown on a small screen.
Victon TPMS display unit could be placed anywhere inside a car that is prefered by driver. Compare to Cigaratte Lighter Powered Product, it can only plug into cigarette lighter port, and the display screen tends to be very small if not it may not fit into some car's cigarette lighther port. It is not convenient to read the data as driver need to keep their head down to read the small reading and it pose a threat on driving safety, which defeat the purpose of TPMS that is to improve drive safety.
VICTON TPMS Compatibility:
VICTON TPMS is compatible to most of the vehicle such as car, suv, commercial car, van, wagon, mpv for tyre pressure less than 8 bars (800kpa), for VT800 series the max pressure supported is 3.2 bar (320 KPA)
VICTON Product International Certificate:
VICTON products are granted with many international standard and certificate such as FCC cert, CE cert, ISO9001 and many product related patents. It is our responsibility to make sure the product is safe before selling it to our customers. Your safety is always our first priority.

Car seats are used to safely secure children inside of automobiles. They are not baseball gloves and should not be used for such a purpose. When SportsCenter showed the highlight of a Houston Astros fan attempting to utilize such a device for exactly that, an exasperated Bram Weinstein asked, "Is it Trailer Park Day?"
That's what passes for edgy at ESPN these days. It seems that joke was across the line for the Worldwide Leader, as Weinstein was forced to apologize a half hour later for his "derogatory remarks." But did he need to apologize? Watch the clip above, and tell us in the comments if you think Weinstein was out of line. Meanwhile, we're still trying to figure out why the fan brought a car seat into the stadium to begin with; we're sure José Altuve has his own custom model. [ESPN]

What Can Be Done To Control Seizures In Children With Cerebral Palsy?
Seizures in children with cerebral palsy (CP) are fairly common. It is estimated that about 50% of children with CP have some type of seizures and 25-35% have epilepsy. Although seizures are only one of the issues associated with CP, they can be frightening, disruptive and possibly harmful to the brain for the children who have them.

Roasted Tomatoes with Garlic-Infused Oil and Goat Cheese
I often get asked where I find my inspiration in the kitchen. A lot of recipes I develop come from dishes I have sampled while traveling and from tasting a delicious meal at a restaurant. Every once in a while, I taste a dish that I know I should try to make at home. This tomato recipe is inspired from one of my favourite restaurants in Montreal, Tapeo. This restaurant serves a myriad of tapas-inspired dishes, all using crisp, simple ingredients. There is one dish that I always order there, the roasted cherry tomatoes - the tomatoes are slowly roasted until soft, and cooked in a garlic-infused oil with herbs and soft, velvety goat cheese.
After living in Montreal for the past few years, I am in the process of packing up the Chocolate Shavings kitchen and moving to Toronto. This recipe is a nice homage to some of the best food I have enjoyed in Montreal. My cooking philosophy has always been that simple ingredients, cooked to perfection make the best meals. This dish exemplifies this and is a wonderful way to use tomatoes in the summertime. I like to serve it alongside a crusty piece of bread and a green salad for lunch, and as a side dish to roasted fish or grilled chicken for dinner. Tomatoes are really one of the best fruits to roast. They release all of their naturally sweet juices and burst with flavor as soon as they are cut open.
Roasted Tomatoes with Garlic-Infused Oil and Goat Cheese
Serves 2
3 tablespoons of olive oil
3 medium-sized cloves of garlic, crushed
5 sprigs of thyme
A dozen vine-ripened cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup of coarsely crumbled soft goat cheese
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Remove the thyme leaves from their stem and finely chop. Reserve.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a small saucepan on low heat add the olive oil, thyme and crushed garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes to the saucepan (leaving the stems on) and cook for 5 minutes, on low heat, until the tomatoes just start to soften. Place the tomatoes in a casserole and drizzle with the garlic-infused oil and thyme. Top with the crumbled goat cheese and season with salt and pepper.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the tomatoes are softened. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

James Whitlow Delano seems to lead one of those lives you read about in National Geographic, traveling to exotic places and getting lost in the jungle with only his camera for company. Thankfully, he always finds his way out and shares his photos with the world. This is especially fortunate because he photographs the impacts of destructive forces on people and land -- like the devastation of Malaysian rainforests to grow palm trees for biofuels -- that might not otherwise be seen.
One of Delano's most recent photo projects was of Fukushima, Japan's No-Entry Zone: the 12-mile radius surrounding the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, which was hit by a tsunami following an earthquake on March 11, 2011. The tsunami knocked out the plant's cooling systems and onsite diesel generators, a situation that spiraled into the world's worst atomic crisis in 25 years.
Delano entered the zone just days after the plant closed down. His descriptions of life in Japan (and the area immediately surrounding Fukushima) since the earthquake are insightful and scary, especially for those of us who live in close proximity to nuclear reactors in the United States.
Delano, who lives in Tokyo and spends the majority of his time photographing numerous Asian countries, says he feels a particular need to photograph people and environments that are impacted by forces beyond their control -- the underdogs. According to Delano,"These are all interesting places to me because…they all tie into this thread of culture and migration and how cultures lead into one another." He is interested in "issues affecting normal, average people who are under the thumb of very powerful people who sometimes, or often, don't care what happens to people who happen to occupy land next to their factory, or who occupy the forests they are cutting down."
We spoke recently -- Delano in Tokyo and me in New York City, after negotiating a 14-hour time difference and the technical difficulties of dropped cell phone calls across continents and oceans. Below is an excerpt of our discussion. Listen to the 49-minute interview by clicking on the audio player (above left) or downloading the podcast, or read a PDF transcript.
Check out Black Tsunami, Japan 2011, a new book about the Japan Earthquake, Tsunami and Nuclear Disaster, with photography by James Whitlow Delano. Available in mid-March on the iPad.
You live in Tokyo and I know you weren't there at the time of the earthquake, but your family was there, can you talk about what the first few days were like for you?
Yes, well I was in Rome, ironically, and I was getting ready to come home. My wife was here, and I called. I was in a hotel for one night that had no television, nothing, near the train station in Rome, which was all I could get. I called my wife up in the morning and said basically I'm coming home tomorrow, how is it going? Light talk. And she asked me if I had heard what happened. And I almost couldn't believe that I was out of the loop that way, but I had no communication, so I had to go down to an internet cafe and see what was going on. I flew out that morning, as I recall, and it was one of the last flights that got in because the Italians stopped flights, like many of the countries of Europe, once the nuclear reactor started exploding.
The radiation levels have come down, but you still can't live there and now they are trying to figure out where they are going to put all these contaminated trees, all of the leaves, all of the soil and the communities that are evacuated inside the zone, the governments of those communities are resisting having any part of their village designated as the place where they are going to put the contaminated soil so they can get back to life.
So my wife was here, and Tokyo is 200 kilometers, or more, 250 kilometers (170-80 miles) away from the epicenter, and yet, still it basically shut the city down. And when you have a metropolis of like 30 million people that depends on rail systems, it was mayhem…
So I got back at about 2 in the afternoon. I think it was on the 12th —I'd have to go back and look. But by 3 AM, the following morning I was in a car with two Japanese friends, a Korean friend and an American friend. We went from Tokyo--we didn't go directly up, and thank goodness we didn't, because that particular day we went up another of the reactors exploded. And we went over to the other side of the island, from the Pacific side to the Sea of Japan side, and there is a mountain range that runs down the center. My reasoning was that the roads would have been blocked and they were, and I was worried about the nuke exploding, and it did.
So we went up and followed that coast and came back over to Iwate Prefecture north of Fukushima. Because what I had seen in Italy, that was the most severe damage up there. Also, Iwate means stone hand and it literally looks like a stone hand with fingers pointed out and those bays acted as funnels to kind of turbo charge the tsunami and it rose to over 100 feet in many places and it was just shocking.
Did you wear a radiation suite, and a dosimeter or anything?
Frankly, I did not. I wore a mask so I wouldn't breathe it in. The level was 6 microsieverts an hour -- you don't want to live there, but it's not kind of Chernobyl-time. And again, I was comfortable enough that--if I go into this area for five or six hours -- I was comfortable that the risk I was taking was a reasonable one, and I'm still satisfied with that decision.
I do have friends who went similarly clad several times into very heavily radiated areas. And you can't see it, you can't feel it. And my reasoning was: It's in the zone. People don't live there. That's the story. Going to the most dangerous areas is not the story. The story is: people can't go here, it's irradiated and it looks visually the same, the consequences are the same, lives are disrupted, they can't go back.
But it's an interesting time now, because they are trying to decontaminate areas and re-designate areas based upon the actual -- as opposed to an arbitrary area -- actual radiation levels and people are going in, they are wearing hazmat suits in heavily irradiated areas, with simply masks and goggles and working day in and day out raking leaves, picking them up like you do in autumn and putting them in heavier plastic bags and those people's health is going to be a big problem. And the other people who will be like when I went into the zone in April.
There are still people living in an extension to the northwest outside of the 20 kilometer zone called Iitate-mura. And actually in the mountains where this village area is, really caught more radiation than a lot of places right next to the plant. And it was very high. Now I already talked about.6 microsieverts. The day I went in it was 100 up there. And there were children and families still living there for another month because the government was not proactive enough to break away from a regiment and say, "Hey, we've got to get these people out of there." So now that's a part of the no-go zone as well.
And the radiation levels have come down, but you still can't live there and now they are trying to figure out where they are going to put all these contaminated trees, all of the leaves, all of the soil and the communities that are evacuated inside the zone, the governments of those communities are refusing or resisting having any part of their village designated as the place where they are going to put the contaminated soil so they can get back to life.
I know in some of your pictures you dealt with some livestock that were left because they couldn't be taken. What's happened with all of the pets and livestock?
Where are they? Many have died. Some animal rescue groups do get in. There are a few people who do get in. I would love to get in with them, but I'm not Japanese. What some photographers or journalists have done is borrowed ID cards, but I don't think I would fit that role very well. So unfortunately I can't do that. But some of them are getting in, although not always.
Sadly, many of these animals have died. And then kind of in the theme of what we were talking about with the depositing of contaminated soil, in the cities of either Okuma or Tomioka, there are cattle that are now kind of feral. I don't know how they are going to survive the winter. But the farmers, the ranchers -- I guess you could say farmers, because they don't really graze, they raise them almost like veal in barns and bring them hay -- but they wanted to go in and corral all of these cattle they left to go wild, and even though it's in the zone, the farmers said they believed that the animals didn't want to die that way. Don't ask me to explain that, but I don't understand it either. But my question was, if they didn't want to kill the animals, if they corralled them together would that mean that the animals go back into the food chain?
I photographed an enclosure in both of those series. It was right where the actual area is. I entered into the zone on two occasions, once September and once in April. And the farmer -- and I feel for these people, because most are seniors and they are good people and they've worked all of their lives and they are probably financially, before the disaster, they were probably financially on the edge, and this was going to push them over -- but he had cattle in this stable, barn, it looked more like a horse stable, right at the line. And when I went back in September, all of the other cattle were gone, but one. But legally speaking, that one head of cattle could have been brought to market and sold on the market.
They were testing for radiation but I have a feeling that they weren't testing every single animal. So legally, that animal could go on the market. And that's the world that the Japanese are living in these days.

Easy craft project for Kids. This cute elephant will like to play with his friend the Paper Giraffe, and so will the kids.
Items needed:
- Heavyweight Paper or Cardboard (we recycled old file folders)
- Optional: Paint/ brush
- Scissors
- Pipe Cleaners
- Push Pin (to make holes)
- Glue for eye
- Print Pattern and cut out pattern pieces.
- Trace pattern pieces onto heavy paper or cardboard. Cut out. (If you have chosen to use a non-color paper, you will probably want to paint the pieces before tracing and cutting)
- Bend off 2 ½ " pieces of pipe cleaner, one for each joint. Starting with the end of each pipe cleaner piece, twist into a small, tight coil, using up half of the piece. This will ensure that no sharp ends are protruding. Now, bend the coil over to form a right angle. It is now ready to insert into a joint.
- Using the Push Pin, and holding two pieces of the Elephant together to be attached where you want it jointed, push the pin in to make a hole. Go through both pieces, wiggling the pin around a little to make a larger hole.
- Insert the straight end of the pipe cleaner coil into the hole of the joint. Now, twist a coil on the back side, so that the joint is fairly snug. You want the legs, head etc. to be moveable, but not too loose.
- Attach all pieces in this manner.
- Cut any eye from a plain piece of white paper or card stock. Make a small black circle with marker or pen and then glue this into place.

4x4 Tire Pressure PointersPosted in How To: Wheels Tires on April 1, 2012
You don't need a tire blowout to have an excuse to upgrade your truck's only contact points with the ground, but it's good motivation. If you take this as an opportunity to upgrade the height and width to larger than the factory-equipped size, you can use chalk to make sure you don't have too much or too little air pressure. Ignoring or just eyeballing the amount of pressure in your new tires can lead to premature wear and dangerous conditions such as excessive heat build-up, poor handling, and longer braking distances. Plus, you'll get the best performance and fuel economy out of your truck when the tires are set up correctly.
Our family pickup is a '70 GMC Sierra Grande ½-ton with the original 396ci big-block V-8 over the front tires, which travels only about 1,000 miles per year. After a decade of exposure on the driver's side of the truck, the sun eventually took its toll on the sidewalls and caused a driveway blowout at the front left corner. The terribly out-of-style five-star aluminum wheels from the '90s and mismatched front street and rear mud tires were upgraded to 31x10.5-inch All-Terrains all-around. The new gear was delivered pre-mounted and pre-balanced on some basic steel wheels. The bigger tires arrived with a good amount of air, but after testing using the chalk method explained in this article, it turned out they needed about 20 percent more pressure in each one. After the All-Terrains got up to the proper pressure, the pickup's ride was better than it had ever been during the 36 years this GMC has been a part of our family. Here's how we did it using just some chalk, a tire gauge, an air supply, an empty parking lot, and a little patience:
If your truck has to sit outside, you should consider buying sun-resistant covers for the tires that are left exposed. We bought tire shades designed for use on a motorhome to fully cover the new oversize tires. The spare will also get a tire cover; it's exposed to all the elements, as well as everything that gets loaded into the bed and the water used to wash out debris.

Wolves captain Karl Henry has voiced his support for under-pressure manager Stale Solbakken.
Solbakken is feeling the heat following a run of nine games without a win which has seen Wolves plummet from third place to 18th in the npower Championship, with Tuesday's 1-0 home defeat to Millwall greeted by a chorus of boos from the Molineux faithful.
Local press reports on Thursday morning suggested several senior Wolves players had urged Solbakken to change his tactics during a post-match team meeting on Wednesday, claims which have been rejected by the Norwegian as well as skipper Henry.
And the midfielder has gone on to get behind Solbakken, telling Wolves' official website: "What was in the report wasn't correct. We always have meetings after matches and are encouraged to have our say, but we all know that the manager has the final responsibility.
"We were talking about recent second-half performances and why they have not matched the standards shown in the first half. And everyone is right behind the manager in what we are trying to do, which is to try and find a winning formula. We all know what has happened is not good enough, it's a results-based business and the players' performances over the last nine games haven't reached the right level.
"We've been through testing times and we need results quickly. We think we are better than where we are at the moment but it's one thing saying it, we need to show it on the pitch. The manager, the coaches and players all on the same page we all have the same aim - promotion. We all know things need to improve quickly, and they will."

With our Monkey Bread recipe, you'll have the perfect breakfast for any special occasion. Sweet balls of dough are doused in butter and cinnamon sugar, then baked to make a delightful pull-apart bread.
I was looking through some old notebooks last week and found a forgotten treasure–some notes that I'd made on gluten free Monkey Bread. Okay, yeah, I was excited. Monkey Bread was one of the things that my mom made every Christmas morning. I loved helping her roll the dough in butter and cinnamon sugar, and I HAD to make it again.
If you've never had Monkey Bread, it's basically small balls of biscuit dough that have been rolled in butter and cinnamon sugar and then baked in a bundt pan. You can then turn the baked Monkey Bread out onto a plate and it's very pretty for a breakfast or brunch buffet. Since we don't have any fancy bundt pans in our RV, I don't have a pretty picture for you, but it tastes great no matter how you bake it =)
* The exact amount of water needed for this recipe may vary a bit. Different brands of flours absorb water differently and volume measurements of flour are inherently inexact. For recipes like this it's best to add the water gradually while you mix the dough….and then stop adding water once the dough is the consistency that you want. The consistency for this dough should thick enough that you can easily form it into balls. Two cups of water should be just about right, but don't be afraid to use your judgment. If you add a bit too much water, let the dough sit for a few minutes and it will firm up some as the flour absorbs the water. You can also stir in a few more tablespoons of rice or sorghum flour if you need to.
Sounds so yummy! I'm going to have to try this as I miss Monkey Bread! Only thing is I didn't see the note about the water at the bottom…am I missing something. I want to make sure I can do this right the first time. 🙂
I do not see the *note below…
Is it important to see when making the monkey bread?
Michelle » Thanks for catching that. I know I had a note in their at some point, but must have deleted it at some point while editing the post. This one's been in my draft files for a while! I've gone back and added the note now.
P.S. Thanks for everyone else who noticed this as well. I didn't approve all of those comments since I went back and fixed the note.
Is there a way of printing recipes without 2-3 extra pages? Perhaps I'm missing something?
Thank you
BJ Daniel » The easiest way is to copy the portion you want and paste it into a text document for printing.
When you select print, on your print preview page, by default you get ALL pages to print. Select only the pages you want by selecting Pages. I do this all the time. You can also select duplex or double sided print to save pap[er. Hope this helped.
Hi Mary Frances: I always made monkey bread with bread dough. I am so going to try this, though, as biscuits are so much faster!
If your travels bring you to Niagara Falls, let me know and we will tour you around!
This looks delicious. Do you think it would work with a butter substitute and with Egg Replacer? We currently have to avoid gluten, dairy, and eggs, which is making life fairly difficult – at least in terms of satisfying a sweet tooth.
Anne Tjaden » I would think it would be fine. The butter replacement shouldn't be any problem. And egg replacement powders were made for things like this. Go for it!
Looks delicious! Was thinking it would be good to freeze a few for future breakfast days – have you tried freezing them after baking or do they disappear too quickly, lol.
Elizabeth » Disappear too quickly!
I use your flour mix ALL THE TIME!!! Why don't you use it in your recipes?
Pam G. » Well, this technically is my flour mix for biscuits….it's just not the flour mix that i use for most of my other recipes =) And, while we're traveling I've ended up using a lot of packaged flour mixes because I can't always get the flours I need to make my own. Unfortunately, there's not much room to store 25lb bags of flour in the RV =(
I make a FANTASTIC waffle out of this flour!!!! Light, crispy and my family loves them! Would be glad to share it with you any time!
OMG, Bless you for sharing, Mary Frances! I have been craving cinnamon buns for months now, but as there is just lil' ole me, I didn't want to go through the hassle of making an entire batch. This recipe was perfect!! I made them this weekend, used the bundt pan, and they turned out AWESOME! So delicious!
Kind regards,
Does anyone know what to substitute for rice flour and xanthan gum? I am allergic to rice & corn, as well as wheat. Can you use quinoa flour or teff in place of rice and guar gum to replace xanthan gum in the same proportions?
Nan » I haven't baked with quinoa or teff flour in quite a while. Several of my readers have had good results with using sorghum flour instead of brown rice flour. They then substitute a bean flour for any sorghum flour that's already listed in the recipe.
The guar gum for xanthan gum substitution is not nearly as straight forward. I'd start by using twice as much guar gum as xanthan gum. I'd also add another egg or two. Add the water gradually until the dough reaches a workable consistency. The additional egg is to provide some additional stability for the dough. When I've used guar gum the dough has always turned out to be less pliable and the end product has been crumbly, so the eggs are my suggestion to combat that.
Thank you for your expertise! I will give that a try.
I was wondering if substituting some of the water for soda water if they would be as fluffy as I have heard. Does it also work in some of your other recipes? Thanks for making this information available. I miss breads. 😉
P.S. totally understand about the camper storage issue.
Tracy » I haven't used soda water as a substitute to get extra fluffiness. I'm really pretty happy with the lightness and fluffiness of my biscuit based recipes. That might be helpful in a yeast-free bread or in yeast rolls to help get some more bubbles into the dough.
I can't handle too much xanthan gum. Is it possible to replace it? Ditto for guar gum. A little once in a while isn't a big deal. But too much gives me a belly ache, so I'm trying to find recipes that don't have it in it.
Hello Mary. I so enjoy seeing all you have some up with that is GF! Wonderful.
I struggle however, with a strong sensitivity to the old Xanthan gum (and other gums) that has me tummy sick for days.
Do you have many xanthan gum free recipes…and if so, are you listing them separately, so they are easy to find for us that are not just Gluten intolerant.
Thanks. And Merry Christmas! M
This was the best GF recipe I have made so far. I served this on Christmas morning and they were a real hit. It's the first bread-type recipe I've made that doesn't taste like an imitation. I am anxious to try more recipes now – thank you so much!!
The best gf monkey bread! My five little monkeys and their dad love it! What's great is that you can use dairy free butter and it turns out great. Tastes really good cold, too.,

Comments on A Checklist for Content Work
by Erin Kissane
20 Reader CommentsBack to the Article
bq. Factual content must be updated when new information appears and culled once it's no longer useful; user-generated content must be nurtured and weeded; time-sensitive content like breaking news or event information must be planted on schedule and cut back once its blooming period ends. Perhaps most importantly, a content plan once begun must be carried through its intended growth cycle if it's to bear fruit and make all the effort worthwhile.
I love this, but can't help wrestling the common sense of agriculture against the typical concerns of consulting. We've all seen how politics, finite budgets, and the pressure of competing deadlines get in the way of post-launch maintenance when companies outsource their web initiatives. It's a problem with codependent enablers: clients send RFPs for new websites, blog templates, or content; consultancies respond with ideas to relaunch anew, with sparkling new content—and too often, the timeline stops there.
Some agencies are starting to move away from the launch-and-leave model, but their efforts are misguided at best: maintenance contracts that focus on posting press releases and governance documents that live more in documentation than culture are no substitute for the model of vigilant care you describe.
Here's my question: how do you think consultancies need to evolve their offering and how they sell it in order to educate their clients about governance, community management, and ongoing content cultivation? Is it a cultural shift that both agencies and clients need to embrace, or more of a trend that's already happening?
(And if you answer that in full in the book, well, "RTFM" is an acceptable answer.)
Many websites are primarily focused on conversions and thus speed visitors through a funnel. Good content will let a user jump in to whichever step of that process via search engine results matching highly targeted keywords on the page.
Sometimes, sacrificing clarity for some SEO is necessary.
I wholeheartedly agree with the premise that "good content is supported."
In my arguably limited experience I find that without a support plan, i.e., someone to keep the web site fresh and relevant, the web site does more than become stagnant. I find the owner of the site, not getting the value out of the presence on the web in the form of page hits, search engine rank and overall response to content, can not fully realize the value of the web as a medium for existing and potential customer communication. In other words, the site to him or her becomes nothing more than a yellow pages ad.
quantity is important. i'm unable to concentrate if there's too much happens on a single page, ie. adsie, retweets, fb likes, etc..
Thank you for content on content that is witty and insightful. While some say "content is king", I think the ruling power comes form context - that of the user, the task(s) they come to our sites to accomplish, and our business goals. Without context our content often turns into a madlib of marketing and SEO terms.
One of the root causes of my company's content challenges comes from distributed authorship - which is akin to awarding road construction projects to the lowest bidder. Any thoguhts on how to create/manage good content in this type of environment? Like Margot's comment above "(And if you answer that in full in the book, well, "RTFM" is an acceptable answer.)"
Very good article… as usual!
What a great site
How do you see adaptive content working with more traditional strategy models in terms of planning and execution? We've been experimenting with providing different content from a CMS based on organic/paid search keywords, which ties in nicely with the idea of context. The problem is that it compounds the effort it takes to create content for multiple scenarios. Not sure if you've had experience with this but I would be curious to hear your thoughts.
PS - Mods might want to take a pass at the spam posts above.
Bought your book a week or so ago. I just skimmed this article, but it's making me more excited to read the whole book.
Looking forward to it. As soon as I get a free minute…....
Content about content…it's about time.
Thank you for an insightful article on the use, timing and nurturing of content!
Thanks for the response on governance, Erin. My feeling? This is a classic teach-them-to-fish opportunity for consultancies to assess culture, train on tactics, and help their clients maintain over time.
But it's a tough issue: while I see many agencies pitching their clients on long-term maintenance and best practices (whatever THOSE are) they've seen in other organizations, it seems like many shops don't take the time to focus their user research internally and build a sense of empathy around day-to-day content cultivation. That is, they may not understand their clients' internal processes, existing content culture, and current workflow well enough to help them graft on governance techniques that are designed to succeed in specific organizations.
That's where best practices fail: as consultants, we need to show our clients that what's best may not always be right for their particular, peculiar needs and culture. But all experience (and corporate culture) is specific, and that's not always easy to estimate and sell. In many agencies, the vague but vital governance component is tough for both account managers and their clients to accommodate.
Margot Bloomstein was recently out working with us and I got a chance to flip through the new book. Definitely planning on ordering a copy of our own.
Working in the web development/design industry for over 15 years it's great to see content strategy getting a well deserved focus these days. Anyone who's been in the game for a long time will tell you that one of the top reasons a project will fail is when content and message architecture is ignored or minimized.
This is a really useful checklist. Thanks!
Nice work!
I sometimes find it difficult writing website content myself, especially when SEO is involved, as it can be hard to write several pages of varied content, having to fill a word limit and without repeating yourself.
Good, clear checklist here, definitely something to keep in mind for future projects. I agree that there is nothing worse than going on a site and seeing streams of content, it really puts me off reading any of it, and I would probably just leave the site if what I was looking for wasn't clearly marked.
That I find is one of the hardest things to get across to clients. They can be so self absorbed in their business that they never stop to put themselves in their clients shoes. Their content can be technical, bland and as interesting as watching paint dry.
Once they see their content from the clients point of view you can almost see the light bulb go on in their heads.
I think the value of content depends on the author/site owners goal. Blogs are written for retaining a reader audience, while press releases are intended for making an announcement. It can be difficult to make a product announcement interesting and viral, but thats not the point. This is just one example of how none interesting content can also be valuable.
The concept of usability occasionally takes a backseat in web design, sadly, but not as often as it does in content writing.
Making content user-centered really goes hand in hand with good site structure and navigability. It can be difficult to write content that is functional (useful) when there isn't a clear concept of what its purpose is in the scheme of the site.
This article is an excellent resource for generating usable content for usable sites and preventing content bloat.
In this fast paced world I an very aware that being concise is right on the money. I also liked the venn diagram of physical, emotional and information.
I exclusively write for my dog walking site. This means that my target is one third of families in my local area. I constantly struggle with topics that might be of interest to me but have too much detail for the reader. So what does my reader want? They probably will view the articles now and then if I walk their dogs, but maybe not even then.
It seems my content is to expand my reach into the long tail of google and for article sites (which now I have found I have to re-write an article so I dont get caught in the duplication trap.
My biggest trick is researching facts and presenting them as interesting, and even tied back to my dog walking. I found by reading scientific journals that dog behavior is a real 'rabbit hole' of information that most people have no idea about. So in a way I am lucky that I have such a deep interest in my topics. Do I make them concise enough, or do I provide enough detail to support my (and others) theories? That at the end of the day is the question for me, as well as, did I entertain my reader ... I truly hope so.
I would like to add some useful tips to your wonderful article on how to write content for your website "Make sure that your website works for your business. A website that works must have the following characteristics: otherwise it is nothing more than an oversized electronic business card. It must be appealing and professionally designed. Mare sure that the first impression a potential customer gets from you is a positive one
It must allow for better communication channels between you and your customers or prospects. Your contact information shouldn't be more than a click away
It must give visitors a good reason to return to your site. Here, content is king
Do not make a sales pitch in every paragraph ..."
As a burgeoning copywriter all this brain food is brilliant. Cheers
I could not agree more with your retake on the old "Content Is King" maxim - it's all about delivering relevancy.
When I first started my blog, I was obsessed with SEO and putting up content as quickly as possible so that my pages could be indexed by the search engines. This practice resulted in a low conversion rate and an extremely high bounce rate. This article hits the nail on the head. Without good content your blog will not be successful, no matter how many visitors it gets.

Staffansmäss/ St. Stephen's Day.
These are different names on the day after Christmas day.
In Norway, it is called "Andre juledag" and in Denmark "Anden juledag".
In the U.S. there is not "Annandag Jul" as the general federal holiday.
Ris a la Malta.
Ris a la Malta is a dessert that is often eaten at Christmas in Sweden.
The name is probably a corruption of dance influence Risalamande, which in turn can be traced to the French influence Riz à l'amanda = "rice with almonds." It consists of cold rice pudding and mixed with whipped cream and flavored with sugar and vanillin-/vaniljsocker.
The decorated sometimes with canned mandarin segments or the like.
A variation on the right called "Apelsinris".
In addition to the above mixed in concentrated orange juice and / or cut orange pieces. Sometimes excluded vanilla sugar.
The rice can be served natural internationally, with nuts, juice, soup, jam, apple sauce or a sweet berry compote (for example, cherry or apricot).
Recepie :
1 1/2 cups water
1 Tbsp. butter
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup short-grained, glutinous rice
4 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 Tbsp. vanilla sugar or 1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. freshly ground cardamom or ground cinnamon
(1 cup chopped almonds )
Use first five ingredients to prepare rice porridge.
Allow to cool, refrigerated, for at least three hours or overnight.
Stir together heavy cream, vanilla sugar (or vanilla extract), sugar, and cardamom.
Whip until stiff peaks form.
Fold whipped cream mixture and almonds into cold rice porridge.
Pour into pretty bowl and refrigerate 1 hour.
Serve with Fruit sauce, Juice soup or Juices Cream.
Yield: 5-6 servings of rice pudding.
Fruit sauce is a simple dessert that is usually served hot or cold to risgryns-/mannagrynspudding, cheesecake, Ris à la Malta or rice pudding.
Fruit sauce made of the juice of such strawberries, raspberries or blackcurrants or mixed juice, which is diluted with water and cooked with potato flour or arrowroot. A preliminary study on arrowroot gives a clear sauce, while potato flour gives a dull sauce. Fruit sauce is often confused with juice soup.
Juice soup contains the same ingredients as fruit sauce, but a higher proportion of water. It is served hot or cold and like rosehip soup, as is, or with such crusts.
Juices Cream contains the same ingredients as above but requires more precision and routine to get the right taste and texture. Juices Cream served cold or warm with cold milk.
