Successful Video Marketing for your business: With the popularity of such sites as YouTube and Vimeo and other that are more regional sites such as Nico Nico Duca in Japan and Youku in China, it is evident that videos do play an important role in promoting a product or a service. Indeed online videos are proving to be the fastest way for business organizations to spread a word about their offerings in a creative manner. The videos help to bring a more personal interaction between the customers and the business. The mix of visual effects and sounds helps to capture audience attention effectively.
The delivery of useful information to the target audience becomes fast and simple with online videos. It is well understood that 'a picture is worth a thousand words' but when the right animation and sounds are also added to these pictures, it may be worth a million for the business. A good online video can enhance brand reputation and give a special identity to the business. It may be to describe and demonstrate the functions of a product, to introduce a company, for online seminars, conferences or advertisements, an online video can attract a lot of traffic for your website. Even search engines like Google give more importance to websites with videos related to a search and give high rankings to such sites.
At present YouTube, the video search engine offered by Google is the leading online video destination and thousands of videos are uploaded on the website daily. Created in early 2005, YouTube not only allows users to upload videos but also share them on social networking websites like Facebook and Orkut. Users can also comment on the videos and show their appreciation by hitting the 'Like' tab. Recent stats reveal that this video search engine serves up a million views about every 90 seconds. Certainly, any business considering the video marketing strategy would like to put up an optimized video clipping on YouTube. However, for a more successful online marketing campaign, other avenues also need to be explored to reach customers via online videos.
While creating an online video for marketing, following things should be taken care of:
Use creative elements: To ensure that success of a viral online video marketing campaign, the product, service or business should be presented in a creatively meaningful way. The video may need to be optimized with text apart from special effects and sound and the choice of font impacts the quality of the clipping. If the video seems banal and fails to make a good impression, it does not even if the video gets several views. Even a medical service can be advertised through online videos if the right elements are used to convey the message.
Add professional touch: along with the creative elements, the technical details also need to be taken care of. Poor quality and slow loading videos instantly turn off web audiences – they have lots of alternatives to choose from, and only the best can get attention. If the video involves a clip that captures a live site, it needs to be ensured that superior cameras and good lighting are used for the shoot.
Focus on the essentials: An online video does not need to showcase the entire product line or all the features of a business. Indeed the videos with a very long duration may sometimes irk the audience. They also take long to load. For success in online video marketing, it pays to hone in on one key message with the strongest lead benefit.
Broaden the reach of videos: Online videos are transforming into vital components of the Internet and are efficient ways of dispensing information. A few years ago, sharing videos in the web world was not as easy as it is now with the advent of video sharing sites like YouTube, Blinkx and Vimeo. Interesting videos uploaded on business profiles on social networking websites add to the over all optimization of the profile.
Use primary keywords to describe the video: It is important to understand that video sharing platforms have their own evaluation system to rank the different videos for a search result. This is similar to search engine results for websites. This is why the use of primary keyword in the video file name is significant for its online visibility. Keyword usage in the file name also helps to optimize the video for direct search engine results. The video file name (with the keyword) also needs to be used in the URL extension for the video.
The power of Niche Groups: The video sharing websites including YouTube have targeted groups in almost every small niche. A business that is serious about using the online video marketing strategy can join these groups and become an active member. The business should also contribute to the community and as it gains recognition, the links for its website can be inserted while posting comments and new information. When a member effectively posts valuable content, others in the group also start trusting and like checking out the signature link. This is similar to forums and discussion boards but is the direct result of efficacy of interesting videos.
In an era where social media has so many followers, the strengths of video marketing to woo the target customers certainly cannot be ignored. There are endless opportunities for a business to market their products and services through this channel. Also, the video sharing websites have several categories where a business can aptly post its video. YouTube, for instance has sections for:
- Autos and Vehicles
- Comedy
- Education
- Entertainment
- Film and Animation
- Gaming
- How-to and Style
- Nonprofit and Activism
- People and Blogs
- Pets and Animals
- Science and Technology
- Sports
- Travel and Events
The broad range of categories proves that there are people of different interests logging on to the video sharing websites and searching for their favorite videos. A business can thus reach its customers when it posts marketing videos on such platforms. Direct interaction with the customers is also feasible on video sharing websites.
Internet video marketing is a part of digital revolution. It makes online marketing more dynamic and appealing. The audience can be kept engaged with the brand and they also like to share their favorite videos with other online friends.
As powerful tools of social media marketing, online videos also prove to be cost effective ways to promote a business. Even small and medium enterprises that cannot afford advertising on Television can use online videos to reach their target customers. What's more, the online videos reach not only the desktop and laptop Internet users but also the increasing number of smartphone users. With the improved technologies in Blackberries, i-Phones and Androids, loads of online videos are accessed through these hand held devices.
Packed with the appropriate elements and shared on the right platforms, your online video can do wonders for your business!

Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas that causes thousands of deaths each year in North America. Breathing in carbon monoxide is very dangerous. It is the leading cause of poisoning death in the United States.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or a local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222.
Poisonous Ingredient
Carbon monoxide is a chemical produced from the incomplete burning of natural gas or other products containing carbon.
Where Found
The following items may produce carbon monoxide:
Anything that burns coal, gasoline, kerosene, oil, propane, or wood
Automobile engines
Charcoal grills (charcoal should never be burned indoors)
Indoor and portable heating systems
Stoves (indoor and camp stoves)
Water heater that use natural gas
Note: This list may not be all inclusive.
When you breathe in carbon monoxide, the poison replaces the oxygen in your bloodstream. Your heart, brain, and body will become starved of oxygen.
Symptoms vary from person to person. Those at high risk include young children, the elderly, persons with lung or heart disease, people at high altitudes, and smokers. Carbon monoxide can harm a fetus (unborn baby still in the womb).
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may include:
Breathing problems, including no breathing,
shortness of breath, or rapid breathing Chest pain(may occur suddenly in people with angina) Coma Confusion Convulsions
- Dizziness
- Drowsiness
Fainting Headache Hyperactivity
- Impaired judgment
- Irritability
- Low blood pressure
- Muscle weakness
- Rapid or abnormal heart beat
Shock Nausea and vomiting Unconsciousness
Home Treatment
If the person breathed in the poison, immediately move him or her to fresh air. Seek immediate medical help.
Install a carbon monoxide detector on each floor of your home. Place an additional detector near any major gas-burning appliances (such as a furnace or water heater).
Many carbon monoxide poisonings occur in the winter months when furnaces, gas fireplaces, and portable heaters are being used and windows are closed. Make sure you have any heaters and gas-burning appliances regularly inspected to make sure they are safe to use.
Before Calling Emergency
If possible, determine the following information:
- Patient's age, weight, and condition (for example, is the person awake or alert?)
- How long they may have been exposed to the carbon monoxide, if known
However, DO NOT delay calling for help if this information is not immediately available.
Poison Control, or a local emergency number
In the United States, call 1-800-222-1222 to speak with a local poison control center. This hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. You can call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What to expect at the emergency room
The health care provider will measure and monitor the patient's vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. The patient may receive:
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy
- Medicines to treat symptoms
- Oxygen
Expectations (prognosis)
Carbon monoxide poisoning can cause death. For those who survive, recovery is slow. How well a person does depends on the amount and length of exposure to the carbon monoxide. Permanent brain damage may occur.
If the patient still has impaired mental ability after 2 weeks, the chance of a complete recovery is not very good. Impaired mental ability can reappear within the first 1-2 weeks in those who have been symptom free for a short while.

Russets steamroll Indians 41-14
SHELLEY — Kaden Schmitt passed for 191 yards and five touchdowns as Shelley pounded Pocatello 41-14 in non-conference play on Friday.
"I've got to give it up to our offensive line," said Schmitt. "They gave me time and gave my receivers time to get open."
Shelley (3-1) bounced back from a 21-0 loss to Manti, Utah, last week.
"Our big focus all week was to make sure our offense produced," said Russets' coach Travis Hobson. "We were all unhappy about last week."
"Last week definitely motivated us," Schmitt said.
"Kaden took it upon himself to take the team on his shoulders this week," Hobson said. "This makes (the loss) sting a hair less."
Shelley got started quickly. Bracken Nelson set the Russets up at the Pocatello 37-yard line with an interception on the Indians' third play from scrimmage. Randy Bauer converted on a 9-yard run four plays later. Schmitt had the big play in the drive, a 21-yard run. He rushed for 115 yards, setting up another score with a 71-yard run.
Shelley marched 73 yards on its second possession of the game, with Schmitt passing 4 yards to Josh Peterson.
Following a fumble recovery at the Pocatello 34, Schmitt and Company took four plays to score. Taylor Lund was the recipient of a 6-yard scoring strike.
Less than a minute later, the Russets were in the end zone again. Spencer Dye set that up with a fumble recovery. Schmitt passed 11 yards to Josh Peterson for the score.
Just before intermission, Pocatello marched from midfield to the Shelley 1-yard-line before Shelley's defense stiffened, stopping the Indians on a fourth-and-one.
Matt Cose caught a 40-yard pass from Jerred Stiffler to set that play up.
The two Indians hooked up for a 67-yard touchdown play in the fourth quarter.
Pocatello (1-3) also got a 2-yard run from Joseph Pollard.
Shelley's other scores came on a 7-yard pass from Schmitt to Bracken Nelson and a 62-yard Schmitt to Dalton Nelson pass.
Shelley rushed for 299 yards to go with Schmitt's 191, giving the Russets 490 yards total offense. Pocatello had 56 yards rushing and 113 passing for 169.
Peterson caught 4 passes for the Russets, good for 69 yards. Dalton Nelson had 3 catches for 73 yards.
Bauer had 83 yards rushing on 12 carries. Jason Hathaway had 47 yards on 6 carries. Jacob Sutherin had 32 yards, also on 6 carries.
Pocatello 0 0 0 14 - 14
Shelley 13 15 7 6 - 41
First quarter
S-Bauer 9 run (Fredrickson kick)
S-Peterson 4 pass from Schmitt (kick failed)
Second quarter
S-Lund 6 pass from Schmitt (Fredrickson kick)
S-Peterson 11 pass from Schmitt (Fredrickson run)
Third quarter
S-Nelson 7 pass from Schmitt (Fredrickson kick)
Fourth quarter
P-Pollard 2 run (Parra kick)
S-Nelson 62 pass from Schmitt (kick failed)
P-Cose 67 pass from Stiffler (Parra kick)

FROM THE STREETS OF YOUR NATIONS CAPITOL. Copyright © 2006 Mad Zebra Inc. All rights reserved.
Wednesday, January 12, 2011
He told me that he is going to tell his wife that he wants out of the marriage. He has been drinking for the last four hours so he can have the balls to face her when he do so. Mind you it's a little after one in the morning and this clown is going to wake up his poor wife and ask her for a divorce. At the same time I was tuned in to "coast to coast am " on the radio. For those of you who are not familiar with "coast to coast am", it's a radio show that attracts night-shift retards like myself and talks about alien abductions, UFO, secret society, shadow government and shit like that. And last night they had a guest talking about how to learn to talk to dead people if you buy his book, and I was listening attentively.
This dude wouldn't leave me alone, he talked about how he is in love with another chic at his work and can not live without her because they are a match made in heaven. He talked about his wife being pain in the ass and that she is not giving up the pussy as frequently as he liked, as a matter of fact according to his iphone app, in 2010 they fucked only fourteen times!
He wanted my opinion and usually I would say "Are you fucking crazy? you dumb ass! You don't wake your wife up one in the morning and..." but last night I was like "You go boy! Wake that bitch up and...", just to make our conversation short so that I can carry on listening to the radio about the latest technique on how to talk to dead people.
Finally I dropped him off around 28th and Cathedral! He admired my superior advice that I have given him and paid me handsomely. This fair would buy me the book that they have advertised on the radio show, and soon Mad Cabbie will be talking to all kind of dead motherfuckers on the other side!
Please don't forget the homeless,
Mad Cabbie.

Mad, when I was in college a decade ago I used to listen to Art Bell on coast to coast am. I loved it, Art used to put on any creep on the radio....Great blog Mad Cabbie, I take cabs all the time in DC and I hope I will run in to you one of these nights.
Stay safe, Matt.
For some men, any one would look like a match made in heaven at one in the morning after being wasted. It is too sad that marriage is taken so lightly in the West. Where I came from marriage is valued much much more and once you make your vows you stick to them that the divorce rate is so low. I wish him good luck with his soul mate his chances of success are 25%. I also wish the wife good luck, who knows her soul mate could be working with her too.
Mad, I agree with Matt! Art Bell was the King of overnight radio. I remember those Y2K Armageddon scenario shows, those were classics!
Moi, the reason the divorce rate is very low back home is because women, especially our parents generation didn't work and have no means to support themselves financially if they leave the marriage. Unfortunately they take the verbal and physical abuse through out the marriage. I am pretty sure it was the same in America few decades ago when women weren't visible in the work force. But I do agree with you that people do take their marriage vows more seriously!

Matt, there is something creepy about Art Bell and I like that. George Noorey is good but nothing like Mr Bell, too bad he retired!
Moi, I have attended couple of Ethiopian weedings and if the priests did the stuff they do with crown and everything, I wouldn't take my marriage lightly either.
#888, you're Ethiopian? I thought you were a local brother or something! YES I do remember those Y2K shows man! That's why I didn't party new years's eve in 1999, I was hiding in my basement surounded by canned food.
Diamond 888,
Enkwan Abro Aderesen!
I too agree that there were some abuses, verbal and physical back home but there were also traditional ways of protecting the weak. Let us not forget the "Shimagiles" elders who would come at a heart beat to smooth out problems in marriages. The other most important thing is respect, there is almost no respect in Western house holds for the man who is the head of the house hold, and that is very important in a marriage. The women here tend to try to be forceful, the art of compromise and wisdom is lost. I know a lot of marriages in Ethiopia where the little, quiet, timid women run the show unbeknownst to the macho men who think they are doing it all because the women defer to the men on things that are important to the men.
Dehina wal Yagerie Sew,
Not all Ethiopians get married in Church. Some people do choose to have a secular ceremony. I for one had a small secular wedding because I got married two years after my father died and did not want a huge celebration. I believe it is the attitude that one has coming into a marriage that counts. I thought and still do it is for keeps as do lots of people back home. We all can learn something from eachother, the US has so many good things going for it but I think Americans could learn a thing or two about marriage from Africans.
This is just my two cents. I hope I do not sound patronizing, I apologize before hand if I any one finds this so.
African negros usually have three wives they can't afford. The Negro male speices is not capable of taking care of it's own cubs!
Moi I don't think we can learn anything from africa.
Blue Eyes.
Blue eyes, I really feel sorry for you.

Blue Eyes didn't you tell me once that your mother is also your sister as well! Does that mean your dad is also your grandfather? These trailer soap operas always confuses me!
Hey mad,
It is not looking good for the 94 posts left for the year if you go at this pace. :(
Ok, let us do the Math:
If you want to do 100 posts for the year, you need to turn out 8.33... posts per month, you already have 6 for January and you could go over 8.33.. by the month's end by posting 3 more posts within the next 11.42 days. :)
Here is a break down of what you could to get to a hundred posts:
*During the months that have 31 days, you should post every 3.72 days.
*During the months that have 30 days you should post every 3.6 days.
*And on February you should post every 3.36 days to get your 8.333 posts per month bringing the total to 100.
*Or you could break it down by days altogether and post every 3.65 days.
Sorry mad I just couldn't resist. I am a math buff and I love doing these kind of things to friends. But kidding aside we are looking forward to the posts that are to come.
- Mad Cabbie said...
Moi, trust me I will get it done! I know I am going to go well over a 100 posts. If I do you will owe me a kitfo! Moi, the way you broke it down mathematically, I can tell that your house is very neat and well organized. I will post one tomorrow about a strange question I was asked by a passenger.
You've got yourself a deal Mad!
- Peggy said...
Isn't it odd that when a woman wont fuck her husband it is all down to a personal problem on HER part? Like she's got some character flaw.
- brokemoto said...
Sometimes it IS the female, and for no reason that the male can understand. Many years back, I was in a long term relationship where she cut me off for no reason that I could figure out. I did everything that I had always done to be the good boyfriend: brought her gifts, took her out, treated her with kindness, tried to communicate to find out what was the problem. And NO, I did not suddenly gain thirty kilos; while I have always been fat, I did not add more kilos during that relationship; I was as fat the day that I left her as the day that I met her.
I finally had to tell her that if she was not going to try to get to the source of the problem and do something about it, I was going to have to look out for myself which meant that I was going to walk, as I am no cheater. She refused to do anything, so walk I did.
Still, I am aware that in many cases, it is his fault. He ignores her and stays out half the night with his buddies, comes home blottoed and expects, as was it Bette Middler or Janis Joplin who said it?; open arms and open legs. He never brings the surprises that he did when the relationship started or he figures that since he has one locked up, he can let himself go and he does gain thirty kilos and stops bathing on a regular basis.
Then there are those guys like the one in the Richard Prior routine where he tells about the guy who comes home and bangs on every wall and door in the place and says in a loud voice 'Give UP the POO-see!, give UP the POO-see'. I AIN'T even a girl and I would buckle up and double lock my chastity belt if some guy treated me like that.
LOL, excellent if you are lying
I mean excellent Post Mad, I didnt know the comments would go so in depth.

A pleasant stroll through the park turns into an apocalyptic showdown when the public art spews a fireball in your direction. That's just an ordinary day with Yanobe Kenji's fire-breathing robotic sculptures.
Not all of Yanobe's sculptures double as flamethrowers, but most sport an industrial, an even post-apocalyptic look. His trademark creation is Torayan, the hazard-suit wearing doll who populates many of his works. Up top is video of the Giant Torayan, a robotic sculpture that Yanobe describes as "the ultimate children's weapon." Giant Torayan sings, dances, breathes fire, and, according to Yanobe's artist's description, obeys only the orders of children. Yanobe has also created a fire-breathing dragon boat — the perfect defense vehicle for water travel — but it's with Giant Torayan that children will finally conquer the Earth.

Opinion: DACA was a weak temporary solution, both constitutionally and functionally
EDITOR'S NOTE: Boris Epshteyn formerly served as a Senior Advisor to the Trump Campaign and served in the White House as Special Assistant to The President and Assistant Communications Director for Surrogate Operations.
WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) - The Constitution is the law of our land.
Under the Constitution, it is the role of the legislature, Congress, to write the laws and of the executive branch to enforce them.
This separation of powers has been specifically upheld by the courts in the context of immigration law.
DACA is simply not constitutional.
The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals was put in place in 2012 after Congress repeatedly refused to provide amnesty for illegal immigrants who arrived to our country as children.
The program enables those who meet certain criteria to register and be eligible to remain in the us for 2 year terms, which may be renewed.
President Obama singlehandedly opened a loophole in the immigration laws of our country. That is wrongful overreach.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the Trump administration is now ending the DACA program, but with an important caveat.
The administration is putting in place a 6-month grace period allowing Congress to come up with a solution on how to handle the approximately 800,000 people currently on the DACA program.
This is the correct approach. We elect our members of Congress to enact laws and come up with solutions to complicated problems, not kick the can over to the executive.
Here is the bottom line: DACA could never be a long-term solution. It was a weak stop gap, both constitutionally and functionally. DACA allowed for Congress to not have to pick a side between securing our borders and showing compassion. Without DACA, Congress has to find a way to actually legislate on this divisive issue.

What is the Best Thing You Can Put On Pumpernickel?
I'm not sure exactly but Pate Maison has to be one of them. The great thing about Pate Maison is that it is true to its name. As master of your house, you can put what ever you want in it so it is like your favorite loaf of bread you invented and like the best.
I only make this rich dish once a year, right before Thanksgiving, and it is a large one made in Lucy's largest soufflé. Before baking it weighs over 4 pounds, just in various sausages, bacon, ham, beef and chicken livers alone.
The other ingredients are a caramelized mix of 1 large onion, 8 oz of crimini mushrooms, 1/4 of a bell pepper, 1 small carrot and rib of celery all cut into cut into sticks. The greens are a mix of parsley, 2 green onions and a little bit of arugula and chopped Swiss chard.
A half a stick of butter is used to sauté 3/4ths of the 1 pound 4 oz of chicken livers in (3minutes only) with some thyme and 2 tsp of pepper and 1 garlic clove. Cut; 8 oz of your favorite ham into sticks and 2 hard boiled eggs cut in half. The sausages were 8 oz each of fresh; Mexican chorizo, hot Italian, beef boudin, andouille and pork country breakfast all home made.
You hold back 1/4 of the ham sticks, 4 chicken livers that are uncooked and chopped in half and the eggs so that you can decorate middle of the pate so when sliced it is a stunner visually. The remaining bulk of chicken livers are liquefied in a food processor.
To assemble you mix, the caramelized onion and mushrooms, red bell carrot and celery sticks, green onion, arugula parsley, Swiss chard, 3/4 ths of the ham sticks and the liquefied sautéed chicken livers in with the sausages with a large heavy spoon along with 2 T of brandy and 1 T of dry sherry.
Line the soufflé with the 12 oz of smoked bacon slices making sure they are long enough to cover the top when the soufflé is full of pate. Put half the mix in the bottom and then decorate the middle with the reserved egg, ham sticks and raw chicken livers and then cover with the rest of mix and fold over the bacon to cover the top.
Make sure to place the covered soufflé (I have a lid but you can use foil) in a jelly roll pan to catch the copious amounts of fat that will be rendered as it bakes at 350 F for 2 1/2 hours. Take the lid or foil off with an hour to go to brown the bacon on top.
As it cools put a plate on top and turn the soufflé over squeezing out as much fat as you can. Then leave the pate on top and weigh down with something heavy, I used large enchilada sauce cans. When cool, keep the weight on and refrigerate overnight.
Un-mold after 12 hours in fridge and cut the huge pate into 8 wedges and freeze them to be ready anytime during the Holidays! Now if Ski was like me he would take half to the smoker for an hour of smoke just to put the cap in the bottle and have a different pate to choose from!
My favorite topping for my favorite bread - it must be close to the holiday season for sure! Happy Holiday Baking!
And yes.....You can have it for breakfast if no one is looking! The innocent looking lunch has a sandwich what I am sure is even illegal in Canada - A Pate, Pastrami, Pumpernickel, Paddy Melt with Brie. It might be the most delicious sandwich Lucy has dreamt up lately - certainly the most decadent.

How to Build a Video Game Car
Night Owls Gaming Community :: Game Discussion Forums :: PC Gaming :: Racing Games :: Racing Game Forums :: Need for Speed Most Wanted (2012)
Page 1 of 1 • Share •
How to Build a Video Game Car
Want to know how we create the cars for Need for Speed? Here's how:
We start by picking an awesome car, say the BMW M3 Coupe. It makes the grade, because it's a timeless car: fast, powerful, tough. Perfect for the kind of rough and tumble, highly physical gameplay we have in mind for the all-new Most Wanted.
The first thing we do build a wireframe mesh of the car. It evolves through various different guises, before we get to something you'd recognise as an in-game car. These wireframes show it at various points in development.
Once we've got a basic-looking version of the car in the game, we get to work on the handling. We're all about great handling. It's what keeps us up at night. We spend nearly every minute of every day of development playing the game and iterating the handling until it's right.
We want our M3 to be slick and agile, compared to say, a Mustang, but slower and more weighty than a Porsche 911.
We want it to feel just right for die-hard M3 fans and owners, like our very own executive producer Matt Webster. But we also want it to be as fun, easy to drive and exhilarating as you'd expect from a thoroughbred BMW.
Authenticity plays a part, which is why we're obsessed with the history of the cars, but we're not into simulation. You've got to believe in the car, but if you can't kick the back-end out to drift beautifully through each turn, you're not going to have fun driving it. Our game's not about how you really drive, it's about how you dream of driving - fast and dangerous, through downtown traffic with the cops in pursuit
Meanwhile, the sound technicians are hard at work doing their thing. These boys take the real car to an airfield, gaffer tape microphones to every conceivable part: exhaust, air intakes, engine bay, and then rip it around, sliding, wheelspinning, hitting top speed and sometimes crashing. All in the name of getting the sound perfect.
Finally, we put it all together and finesse everything until we're happy. The whole process takes a dozen people over a year. We'll keep making final tweaks to the sound, visuals and handling right up to the last minute. Our game's about pushing cars to their limit, so they've got to look, sound and feel just right.

Creating videogames would be a great job to me I'd really like it

The Census (Heads of Familes) records are linked to the Church
Records of Baptisms, Marriages and Burials. Click the link to bring
up more data and click on the bottom menu bar to get back to the relevant
Census page.
I have arranged the list in alphabetical order
with a (I hope!) simple menu system to reach the appropriate
pages. There is a problem with the spelling of names in some cases -
the name as recorded is in italics where it is different from
the main spelling. In the 1841 Census (see also the link to Census
notes) no place of birth was required, so I have put the 'obvious' ones in red. It is probably worth having a look at the notes first,
so I have also put a link from them to the Census.
In addition to this we have the complete censuses for all available years - follow the links to the appropriate year. As yet there is no custom search facility so the data is presented as it was entered by the enumerator at the time. However, you can use the 'find' facility (Ctrl+F) in Internet Explorer (at least 5.0) to search each page. Most of the censuses are in house order, apart from 1851, 1861 and 1871. I have added internal links to Lower Froyle, Upper Froyle and the bottom of the page. Any entry, mainly house names, that is in red means that we have interpreted the name as shown. Please have patience while loading as these are relatively large files. I would suggest that, if you are looking for a particular person, you go to the "Heads of Family" section first and then look for more detail in the relevant year. Finally, you will notice that we have now have the complete 1911 Census Year - the Heads of Family from 1911 will follow shortly.

Pamela Eibeck, First Woman President of University of the Pacific, to Speak at Santa Clara University's Graduate Commencement June 14
Deborah Lohse
SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 11, 2013 — An award-winning engineering educator and the first woman president of the University of the Pacific will address Santa Clara University's graduate students at their 2013 commencement ceremony on Friday, June 14.
The commencement will take place at 7:30 p.m. in the University's Leavey Events Center.
Pamela A. Eibeck has been president of University of the Pacific for four years, overseeing its expansion beyond its Stockton, Calif. campus to campuses in Sacramento and San Francisco.
In attendance at the commencement will be about 600 students receiving advanced degrees from the College of Arts and Sciences' Pastoral Ministries program, the School of Engineering, the Leavey School of Business, and the School of Education and Counseling Psychology.
Eibeck's presidency follows a distinguished career as a researcher, teacher, educational reformer, and university administrator. She was previously a tenured member of the faculty at the University of California at Berkeley, after which she became a professor and chair of mechanical engineering at Northern Arizona University, where she also served as director of the honors program and then vice provost for undergraduate studies. In 2004, she was named dean of the Edward E. Whitacre Jr. College of Engineering at Texas Tech University.
She has authored or co-authored nearly 50 articles and papers in her fields of expertise, including heat transfer, electronics cooling, and reform of engineering education.
She became a fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 2008. She received the Distinguished Engineering Educator Award from the Society of Women Engineers in 1996 and the Boeing Outstanding Educator Award in 1999.
She received her bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees in mechanical engineering from Stanford University.
Eibeck is married to William D. Jeffery, a law professor at the University of the Pacific McGeorge School of Law. The youngest of their four children, Will, attends Santa Clara University. Their older children live in the Bay Area and Washington, D.C.
At the ceremony, Eibeck will receive an honorary degree.

Apple claims MacBooks are world's greenest laptops
The 'greenest family of notebooks'?
Apple may not have scored too well in the latest Greenpeace Guide to Greener Electronics, but that hasn't stopped it from claiming that its redesigned MacBooks are the "world's greenest family of notebooks".
Can't see the video? Download Flash Player from Adobe.com
In a new advert, the voiceover guy states that a MacBook's "advanced aluminium and glass enclosure" is "completely recyclable". He also claims that the range is engineered to be so efficient that each runs on a "quarter of the power of a single light bulb".
MacBooks are made without many of the harmful chemicals, such as mercury, found in other computers - or so Apple's ad claims.
The company is far from perfect in Greenpeace's eyes though. The eco organisation's latest report awarded it 4.3 points out of a possible ten, and Apple came fourth from the bottom when ranked against the green credentials of the 18 leading electronics firms.
Greenpeace criticised Apple's e-waste criteria, for example, because the Mac maker doesn't publish information about the amount of recycled material used in its packaging.

How well do you trust his writings?The Amazing Race 16 (CBS) 8 p.m.The nine remaining teams travel from Chile to Argentina. Murtz says: Not looking good for the Big Brother team.source: http://tv.insidepulse.com/2010/02/27/iptv-weekend-the-amazing-race-16-desperate-housewives-cbs-
One of the problems with Victor's analysis is this. Teams have to have known from the detailed instructions that came with the clue (which some teams were shown reading) who they were supposed to find, and there's every indication that Jeff nor Jordan read them completely or carefully.Had they done so, they would have finished the leg sooner.
LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- No two Sundays will look the same during the closing weeks of the season for CBS.In addition to its previously announced movies and specials ("The 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards" on April 18, "When Love Is Not Enough: The Lois Wilson Story" on April 25), the Eye has booked "Jesse Stone: No Remorse," the sixth "Stone" film, for May 9 and "Brooks & Dunn: The Last Rodeo," an ACM Awards follow-up special, for May 23.Said quartet will join the season finales of the network's reality franchises "Undercover Boss" (April 11), "The Amazing Race" (May 9) and "Survivor" (May 16).Here's a breakdown of all the dates:Sunday, April 117:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "The Amazing Race 16"9:00/8:00c - "Undercover Boss" (Season Finale)10:00/9:00c - "Cold Case"Sunday, April 187:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "The 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards" (Three-Hour Special)Sunday, April 257:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "The Amazing Race 16"9:00/8:00c - "When Love Is Not Enough: The Lois Wilson Story" (Original Movie)Sunday, May 27:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "The Amazing Race 16"9:00/8:00c - "Cold Case" (Two-Hour Season Finale)Sunday, May 97:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "The Amazing Race 16" (Season Finale)9:00/8:00c - "Jesse Stone: No Remorse" (Original Movie)Sunday, May 167:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" (Two-Hour Season Finale - Special Night)10:00/9:00c - "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains: The Reunion"Sunday, May 237:00/6:00c - "60 Minutes"8:00/7:00c - "Brooks & Dunn: The Last Rodeo" (Two-Hour Special)10:00/9:00c - "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (Repeat)
Scroll down to the bolded text for the important bits!I'm going to respectfully disagree with Apskip's choice of flights on the Episode Thread. I think he's switched up the arrival times of the three flights, and he can't find the 11.10am Austral Airlines flight out of Bariloche. Looking at a different date perhaps?The first matter of business is to figure out which day the teams left Bariloche. We know the teams checked in the previous leg on the evening of the 2nd, and we have half the pack travelling through Sao Paulo, arriving at 3.40pm in Frankfurt.The usual scheduled flight from Sao Paulo to Frankfurt leaves at 11.15pm and arrives at 2.00pm, but it is only on the flight departing on the 4th that the flight was delayed, arriving instead at 3.22pm on the 5th. We can therefore confirm that the Hamburg leg took place on the evening of the 5th, and that teams were released from the Bariloche Pit Stop on the evening of the 3rd, after a ~30h Pit Stop.We had the Sao Paulo and direct flights, but missed out on the Paris flight as it was scheduled to leave earlier and arrive later than the Sao Paulo connection. Here are the flights that the teams took:All teams, unless first flight is booked outAR 2681 to Buenos Aires AEP: 1105-1305 (scheduled 1110-1313)Transfer to Buenos Aires EZEJet/Cord, Michael/LouieAF 417 to Paris: 1846-1127 (scheduled 1800-1100)AF 1918 to Frankfurt: 1314-1424 (scheduled 1315-1435)The show has them arriving at 1435.Carol/Brandy, Daniel/JordanLH 511 to Frankfurt: 2213-1500 (scheduled 2150-1500)The show has them arriving at 1500.Jordan/Jeff, Brent/Caite, Steve/Allie, Joe/HeidiJJ 8005, AR 1244, JJ 8011 or G3 7453 to Sao Paulo (3h40 flight)JJ 8070 to Frankfurt 2315-1522 (scheduled arrival 1400)The show has them arriving at 1540.Had the final flight not been delayed, the main pack would have arrived in Frankfurt the earliest, followed 35min later by the Jet/Cord/Michael/Louie flight and an hour later by the Carol/Brandy/Daniel/Jordan flight. Lots of airport drama we missed out on.The German train website no longer shows timetables for December 2009, having changed their schedule on 13 Dec, but they share the same booking system as the Austrian rail service, which still hosts the old timetables on their website! Here are the trains the teams took:Jet/Cord, Michael/LouieICE 721 to Frankfurt (Main): 1537-1548ICE 72 to Hamburg: 1558-1934All other teamsICE 574 to Hamburg: 1642-2035The lead pair had a good one hour over the trailing teams arriving at Hamburg. Note that had the Sao Paulo flight not been delayed, they would have made it onto a direct train running 1442-1834, arriving a full hour ahead of Jet/Cord/Michael/Louie and two hours ahead of Carol/Brandy/Daniel/Jordan.</table>[/html]

Transcript of Lincoln Inspires Poem for 16th President
May 14, 2009
Poet and journalist Cynthia Zarin often writes poems inspired by news articles. In 1989, she came across a story about a handwritten transcript found in a shoebox. It recorded a case in which then-lawyer Abraham Lincoln successfully defended a man on trial for murder. The article inspired her to write "Of Lincoln".

And it did, for a moment, until I had to slap glitter on top of it.
It ended up looking like snowfall on a dark blue background -- to me, anyway, almost snow globe like :)
This manicure accompanied me through a few finals, it held up really well! Can't quite see the shimmer from Royal Navy but the smaller teal glitters in Hit Polish: Candied Jewels kind of echoed it, which was cool!
I like the glitter mixes from Hit Polish, she doesn't hold back on mixing up different glitters!
You can find Hit Polish here on her Facebook or her Etsy.

- United States Grand Prix
Hamilton delighted to beat Vettel
- Race:
- United States Grand Prix
- Drivers:
- Lewis Hamilton

- McLaren
Lewis Hamilton described his victory in the United States Grand Prix as the culmination of "a great weekend" as he beat Sebastian Vettel.
Vettel had been quickest in all three practice sessions and similarly so in qualifying as he took pole with Hamilton close behind. In the race, however, Hamilton appeared to be a match for Vettel and having followed closely for 42 laps he used DRS to pass and become the first winner at the new Circuit of the Americas.
Hamilton had said that he was desperate to "fight" with Vettel and Fernando Alonso this weekend, and he said that he was delighted to succeed in beating Red Bull.
"It's been a great weekend," Hamilton said. "To be able to beat Red Bull and Sebastian is definitely a tough challenge but we managed to do it. We weren't so bad in the first stint but it was very difficult to follow and make the pass and my tyres went off. We pitted two laps before Sebastian and the traffic really worked out quite well because the traffic usually catches me out, but it worked slightly in my favour at some points. What a great feeling to win the first grand prix here and I won the last one in the USA as well."
Hamilton admitted that passing the Red Bull was very tough, but that the COTA layout gave him a chance in to turn 12.
"He was pretty strong everywhere. The first sector was very difficult to follow through turns four, five six and seven so the place where you really need to close the gap was through nine and then in the most important part there was nearly a second gap so I couldn't really remain close. But the track all worked out really well and I knew that that was going to be the lap where I had a chance. So I turned the engine up and got close."

... the ... boarding welcome to the New Saab I'm all Winkler The monthly jobs report easy just now the unemployment rate ... goes to seven point nine percent which is why ... economists expected ... nonfarm payrolls increased to one hundred and seventy one thousand ... that's ... pretty much well above where they expected coming in at a hundred twenty five thousand nine hundred city one ... last regional economics reporter Sudeep Reddy is joining us with fast reaction CD ... better than expected what what's your best reaction ... absolutely it's that much better than expected and it shows that the trend ... of improvement in the labor market is continuing ... and might be picking up just a tiny bit ... there's been a lot of worries that ... some of the fears about the election in the fiscal cliff might ... hold back hiring but it looks like ... we are ... back to a modest trend of improvement in the labor market in Obliterate job being a ten percent to seven point nine percent ... is not a cute surprise given how ... steeply it dropped last month in the report which a lot of people thought to be ... a little too much personal month and so ... overall this just confirms that were Cabrey rather slow but still steady improvement in labor market ... okay ... Sudeep ... stay with us I wanna bring in John Roberts who was the chief investment strategist for Channel Capital Research ... good morning ... the air on good things for joining us quickly ... now the backdrop to all this is the Federal Reserve has said it got an open ended bond buying program and is can it continue ... plus open ended ... what what is this jobs report ... how does it impact ... I really that much is that the term for Nanking said ... that even if there's some strengthening is can it continue ... I have been sickly is for ... our continued to ... push you to become the Spain trip ... this is true at the end of this going to the first report ... and that it actually refers to a report last but the truth ... let's begin with it ... he promised it could be adopted easier ... the company completes her ... that that the change in monetary call it what it says rumors that this fall ... the the ... like that that that that just ... in terms of improving ... investors ... ok ok dun stay with this one to bring in ... Phil Izzo the editor of the real-time Economics law for the journal filled ... what what's the story behind the headline numbers have roughly this looks pretty good even that of jump in the unemployment rate ... there were more unemployed people the been there were last month but there were a lot more employed people of one of the reasons that increases that a bunch of people came back into the labor force and that's good news it means people are sort of feel little bit more confident ... they won a search for work again so it looks like even the jump in the unemployment rate didn't rise very much just a ten percentage points to one three percent and looks like it rose for good reasons is that a bad reasons and end of job gains of a hundred seventy one thousand this is pretty good ... it's you know it's above the level that we seeded to bring down the unemployment rate ... ah it was pretty widespread throughout the economy mostly jobs obviously and in the service producing so it overall this is a pretty good report ... okay you send us the jobs and service producing eggs dairy in terms of industries ... it's considered writing this jobs with a mean is this number is now at least a little bit higher than what is needed ... to effectively absorb new workers coming in the labor force so you're actually starting to ... see ... what you know it's it's it's better than thin kind of stagnant ... right you what what what what are the industries that are really driving ... well it looks like some of the industry's aren't still ... into we thought we'd see a bit of a rebound in construction and those are still falling but it seems like the service sector is really the sector that ... ALM that seems to be driving things much more than manufacturing with scenes weakness in manufacturing numbers recently ... aam I believe in this report ... on there was a bit of a day of an increase but ... there's been you know with that with weakness overseas there's been some difficulties in the manufacturing sector one ... area for caviar also is ... on the average weekly earnings were basically flat ... aam and ours were basically flat so ... I mean that that's not ... terrible news I mean we didn't need to really drop ... but the fact that we're not seeing gains in earnings ... does ... you know sort of hold back consumer spending one okay Sudeep let's come back to you ... so is ... this a benefit for President Obama ahead of the election or is it too late to have an impact on undecided voters ... this confirms for present Obama the case that he's been making that even though the improvement in the economy in the labor market has been somewhat disappointing in ... and out of relatively slow I it has been steady and so what he's been able to ... accomplish is this argument ... that if you continue with me then you'll you'll will move on the path ... of the Ronnie's argued that of course is that this isn't fast enough and this isn't good enough I in terms of improving the labor market so he's trying to make the case that we could have ... much better much faster growth ... in in the labor market and jobs if I you were to go with them what's interesting in this is how much ... I the trend seems to have ... improved in prior months while the revisions to prior months were fairly solid with both ... the guys September figure and the August figures be revised upward ... its of that's a fairly good sign ... that we're counting God ... were were were straightening and ... if you know when there were to rise ... with payroll numbers that good in the coming months that would necessarily be a bad sign because it could mean that people are coming back to the labor force when they see improvement so ... all around this seems to be a good trend if they can be sustained ... with all the threats such as the fiscal cliff on the horizon ... okay ... you mention of Romney's speech and the Romney John Roberts ... what what what is the of ... really the county was here ... for for his let let's just assume for a moment he gets elected ... how has this jobs report impact say that the kind of Fed policy he would seek to promote as president ... some of them are really a negative ... are better protected followed in the years public way ... so ... given that they were the most like the people that he would appoint ... a new condition ... aam are in for a change said that ... the day that I will be it until you really ... need to be in there ... I'll what is how he will be better ... spent about about certain that the market ... and market leader certainty ... and that really haven't read more of a negative impact that will ... change and fall ... the fiscal cliff looming ... on the horizon ... I'll probably come to some agreement to to prevent that still I wanna I wanna jam packed you'll quickly ... so ... that now it was a lot of controversy over the last jobs report remember ... Jack Welch put out that that infamous to be ... wary but ... you know and and ... he he ... basically suggesting there's kind of conspiracy behind ... the unemployment number and yet ... you know he hit the stock a little bit of a court where you got two different surveys that the household survey which which deals with of course the unemployment rates ... and the establishment survey which deals with job growth ... and he did there's there's some conflict in between these two what what what is this report for ... tell you about ... about how I could see the robustness of these two surveys one of the interesting things about that is we seen over the long term that those two numbers start to go ... in tandem make a big big trend in the same direction and there's a lot of volatility fermentum up to one of the big objections that Jack Welch had was ... that there's no way that the unemployment rate could drop that much is we haven't had that many jobs ... as you look at the establishment survey over the past couple of months ... there was a smaller number of jobs added one look at this month and you see revisions to the prior couple of months ... of the book revised up so almost to one thousand jobs created last month ... from what we originally thought ... and ... that basically showed that job creation was better than we thought which helps explain why the unemployment rate dropped as much as it did ... in even this trout than the ANP's even this increase in the unemployment rate ... doesn't make much sense with them but the ... you know the addition of jobs we have today but when you take the two things together ... and you look deeper into the de tails they do make sense together like I said one ... that unemployment rate rose it's not for the wrong reasons for the right reasons people are coming back in ... the labor force and whittle this broader unemployment rate to because ... they use it to basically people who aam are discouraged and people who are part time but want full-time work ... that ... and that rate actually fell this month ... as the number people who are part-time one full-time work truck so that means that either those people ... drop dead the labor force which is unlikely because the labor force true ... for those people found that full time work that were looking for ...

text: Yellowstone says "Biobullets" for Bison Won't Work January 14, 2014 07:17 AM Tweet Bison from Yellowstone National Park will not be vaccinated with a "biobullet" to help decrease the spread of brucellosis. TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Associated Press Email By: Matthew Brown, Associated Press Shooting wild bison with vaccine-laced "biobullets" to prevent the spread of disease to livestock would be too ineffective to justify the expense, Yellowstone National Park administrators said Tuesday. The announcement means a program that has led to the capture and slaughter of more than 2,300 bison that migrated into Montana over the last decade will continue — with little immediate hope of eradicating the disease that's to blame. About half of the 4,600 bison tested positive for exposure to brucellosis. The disease is feared by ranchers because it can cause pregnant cows to prematurely abort their young. Other measures also are used to control Yellowstone's burgeoning bison herd, including hunting and using helicopters and ATVs to drive the animals back into the park. That has had little or no impact on infection rates, and with the backing of livestock interests, park officials in 2010 proposed shooting bison with absorbable, vaccine-laced bullets to prevent transmissions to cattle. But park officials made clear Tuesday that they have lost interest in spending $9 million over three decades on an effort they concluded would yield minimal results. "We don't think it makes any sense to spend millions of taxpayer dollars and invest 30 years of effort in hopes of a small reduction in the prevalence of bison," Yellowstone superintendent Dan Wenk said. A final decision will be made after a 30-day public review period. Yellowstone's chief scientist, David Hallac said the government will continue "opportunistic" vaccinations of some captured bison using syringes. Only a small percentage of bison captured by state and federal workers in past years have been vaccinated. Montana Stockgrowers Association Vice President Errol Rice said he is disappointed the park was unwilling to put more resources toward combatting brucellosis in wildlife. Rice said the livestock industry has done its part, agreeing to mandatory testing and vaccinations of cattle in areas of Montana, Wyoming and Idaho surrounding the 2.6 million-acre park. "It's been costly for (cattle) producers," he said. "It just makes doing business in this part of the world much harder." Brucellosis was first introduced to the Yellowstone area by infected cattle. It has been largely eradicated elsewhere in the country but persists in Yellowstone's wildlife. Hallac pointed out that diseased elk, not bison, have been blamed for cattle infections. Those include 19 cows and 14 domestic bison that tested positive in Montana since 2007, in some cases triggering trade sanctions from other states. Tuesday's announcement was in line with a report delivered last year by a panel of researchers and university scientists asked by the government to examine the feasibility of remotely vaccinating bison. Besides concerns over the cost and effectiveness, the group warned of possible "behavioral" changes for bison herds targeted for vaccinations. Panelist and bison expert Keith Aune with the Wildlife Conservation Society said existing policies to contain the spread of brucellosis have worked "pretty darned good" given the complexities of dealing with thousands of animals inhabiting a multimillion-acre landscape. But the park has struggled to address the public-perception problem created by periodic slaughters of the animals by state and federal workers. The slaughters are triggered by mass movements of the animals outside the park during hard winters, when the vegetation they eat gets covered by an impenetrable crust of snow and ice. Despite attempts Montana officials to expand the habitat of bison, Aune said there's no way to control that migration as the herd grows. "Sooner or later, the numbers and demographics of this population will drive another large outmigration, which will lead to some very difficult decision about how many to send to slaughter," he said.
