I didn't know it was called Earthquake Lake. hmmm... just a short drive off the road that goes to West yellowstone. It's worth a trip in my opinion
We left Yellowstone Park to make our way back to southern Idaho. Took advice to detour to see this and it was worth the drive. A roadway and homes swallowed up in the 1950's following a surprise Earhquake. The parking lot off the road has exhibits and enjoy the silence of viewing.
The drive from West Yellowstone to Earthquake lake is worth the trip out. Once you get to the Visitor's center and hear the story then go see the devastation for yourself it brings it into perspective. The exhibit is more than facts and science, it's a story about real people that will draw you into this place. It's a can't... More
But they need to put up more signage with information for us that visit this route in the winter and the visitor's centre isn't open!
This area is beyond comprehension! The history of the phenomenal earthquake that caused an entire mountainside to fall and sweep onto the opposite side of the mountain is just the stuff of impossible dreams. The tragedy of lives lost in the quiet darkness of the beauty and serenity of this mountain area, is compelling and an exquisite example of how... More
A beautiful area, but the visitor's area was closed so we could not find out a lot as a first time visitor to the Lake
Worth seeing if you are heading to Virginia City from West Yellowstone. Very eerie seeing trees still peaking out of the water where there was once a mountainside.
Really wanted to come here. Visitors center was closed, but you could get the feel of the tragedy just being in the area. Overwhelming at the thought of being here on that terrible day.
A friend recommended this, and frankly I wasn't really looking forward to it. However, it's impressive. The Visitor Center was closed Labor Day for renovation, but the signs along 287 were sufficient. An amazing insight into the power of mother nature, and a tribute to those who perished in the quake and it's aftermath. The facts that made my jaw... More
beautiful area resulted from such a tragedy. It was drizzling and overcast the day we visited, which added to the surreal, spooky effect.

RTD Temperature Sensing I/O Module
Opto 22 has released the SNAP-AIRTD-10, a two-channel analog input module used tomonitor temperature via connection to copper resistance temperature detectors (RTDs.)The SNAP-AIRTD-10 provides two channels of analog temperature input from 10-ohm copperRTDs, which makes it well-suited for deployment in older installations. The module has aninput range of -180 °C to +260 °C (-292 °F) to +500 °F) and can also be used for 0-25 ohms resistancemeasurements. With its wide input temperature range, high over-range limits for RTD input,and small footprint, the module will prove most useful in water treatment, refrigeration,thermoforming, curing, autoclaving, refining, PID loop control, welding and othertemperature monitoring applications that require high resolution measurements with minimal drift.
Development of the 10-ohm SNAP-AIRTD-10 nicely complements Opto 22's SNAP-AIRTD input module, which accepts 100-ohm platinum RTD inputs. The addition of the SNAP-AIRTD-10 also expands Opto 22's line of multi-channel analog input modules for interfacing to RTDs, thermocouples, ICTDs, thermistors and infrared sensors for the purposes of remote monitoring and data acquisition.
The SNAP-AIRTD-10 is priced at $245.00 USD and is available now from the Opto 22 Web site and a network of authorized distributors.

At the present time, most of Israel's population of .'2,430,000 is concen¬ trated in the narrow coastal plain. The development of the empty spaces Is necessary not only'for the settlement of new immigrants but to malce possible a more balanced distribution of the existing popula¬ tion.

Last month, Rep. Bolton led a House drive aimed at sever¬ ance of aid to the Nasser regime Edward Schlezinger UJFC ANNOUNCES SCHLEZINGER AS DRIVE CHAIRMAN Abe I, Yenkiri, president of the UJFC has announced the appoint¬ ment of Edward Schlezinger as General Campaign chairman of the JJJFC 1965 campaign, 'In making the announcement, Mr, Yenkin said "I am very plea¬ sed that Edward Schlezinger has accepted this important position. Ed has served the Jewish commun¬ ity for -many years in a leader- sWp capacity. Last year he ser¬ ved as chairrrian of Advance Gifts and in this position did an out¬ standing job in bringing the cam¬ paign message to the Columbus Jewish community: Mr. Schlezinger has already obtained the leader¬ ship of all the campaign divisions and is presently working on the schedule and future plans, I am very proud to have Ed on our team," Mr. Schlezinger has been identi¬ fied with the UJFC for many years. He is a member ot the UJFC l)oard of trustees and in 1962-63 served as chairman of the Council of Or¬ ganizations. He has been president of the Jewish Center, chairman of Hillel Advisory Board at OSU and a member of Heritage House board of trustees. He is a past president of B'nai B'rith Zion Lodge and a member of Temple Tifereth Israel. Mr. Schlezinger stated that he "recognizes the responsibility the Jewish community of Columbus has in meeting the increasing needs of the more than 40 agencies sup¬ ported by the UJFC. The local, national and overseas agencies must receive our financial sup¬ port if they are to continue their im'portant services and life-saving programs." The campaign plans will be out¬ lined in the months ahead. on grounds that thel United States was indirectly subsidizing Nasser's aggression and arms. The Bolton amendment, which drew some sup¬ port from Democrats, lost by 117 to 113 on a non-record vote. Subsequently, 16 members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, including members of both parties, petitioned Secretary ot State Rusk to halt Nasser's misuse of Ameri¬ can aid. Rep. Bolton said that, even his amendment lost by a few votes, Administration leaders admitted that a roll call vote would have seen the amendment carried by at least 50 votes. The Administration has now apparently i)ecome con¬ vinced, Mr. Bolton said, that Con¬ gress is "fed up with the manner Leon Schottenstein Julius Cohen FOURTH SCHOLAJISHIP DINNER TO BE mS IN PLAZA SATURN BAaROOM Mr. Leon Schottenstein, president of the Columbus Torah Academy, pnd Mr. Julius Cohen, chairman of the ad book committee, have Issued an invitation to the Columbus Jewish community to attend the fourth annual Torah Academy scholar¬ ship dinner. The semi-formal event, "A Heavenly Evening," will be held In the Satjarn Ballroom of the Columbus Plaza, November 8. Irving Fried, principal of the school said of Mr. Schottenstein, "An active worker for the Torah Academy since its inception, Leon Schottenstein has watched the school grow from a handful of childi-en starting kindergarten, to the present status of seven com¬ plete grades." Said Schottenstein; "The school receives no aid from public funds ' and it is in a position of having to raise all operating monies through tuition and a concentrated fxuid- raising campaign. Tuition accounts for less than half of what the school needs, leaving large sums to be raised within the community. Most of these funds are generated through the annual scholarship din¬ ner and ad book. "This year we have additional ex¬ penses involved in setting up a science laboratory. Now that the school includes the seventh grade, we must provide all the equipment required for more advanced studies. We have many friends in the com¬ munity who are anxious to help our school grow. It's only through the (continued on page 4) Hias Representative Here Thursday; Can Arrange Consultations Mr. William Frank, field repre¬ sentative. United Hias service, will be making his annual field visit to Columbus on Thursday, Nov. 5. Any new i'Unerican families who wish to meet with Mr. Frank pri¬ vately, or any other members of the Jewish community who wish to consult with him about bringing their relatives to the United States from countries other than Israel, may arrange individual appoint¬ ments by contacting Murray I. Daninhusch, associate director, Jewish Family Service, at CA. 1-5181. in which our aid to Nasser has permitted him to divert resources to satisfy his aggressive ambitions." He pointed out that American pol¬ icy makers, because of the serious grain shortages in Communist na¬ tions, are now in a position to greatly influence the future course of Near Eastern affairs. "The minimum price for con¬ tinued United States grain ship¬ ments to Nasser," said Congress¬ man Bolton, "should include Egypt¬ ian withdrawal from Yemen, guar¬ antees against continued Egyptian development of a ground-to-ground missile capacity- which would jeop¬ ardize the security of Israel and other Near Eastern nations, an end to Egyptian air attacks on Saudi Arabian targets t>Ordering Yemen, the halting of Egyptian efforts to evict the United Slates from air bases located in Libya and Saudi Arabia, and guarantees against fur¬ ther interference by Nasser in the Cyprus crisis." In a related development, the State Department said that the Administration "fuUy subscribes to the principle enunciated in the re¬ port on the Communittee on For¬ eign Affairs on August 8, 1963 that economic assistance in the Near East should be administered so as to discourage conflict and promote stabihty." The Department's views were made known by Robert E. Lee, Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Congressional Relations, in a letter to Rep. Leonard Farbstein, New York Democrat, the only Jew;- ish member ot the Foreign Affairs Committee. Felix M.

Ten x Ten Challenge: Day. 7 Great North Punishment
Essentially we are cheating including this challenge. However, I did run over 10 miles (13.1 miles in fact) in the time of 1 hour 52 minutes. Fairly respectable for someone who has not done much running (or training) since high school. And just like drinking ten espressos this challenge has little to do with road cycling but did test my body and mind. I happily concur that long distance running is a tough sport and whilst I aim to do a marathon next year, I didn't enjoy this in anyway as much as a cyclo-sportive or even a 100km slog in the wind and rain. I congratulate all those people (some dressed as trees, giraffes and chickens) who did it in fancy dress for a good cause. My legs are absolutely shot to pieces today so a triathlon is next, I suppose. Or perhaps I'll just stick with the bicycle.
My result.

Speaking of Triathlon, will Rapha ever produce a Tri suit? One of my personal wishes in life - a tri suit that looks good.

A tri suit would be awesome but… the style over speed thing might be an issue? Plus how would sport wool stand up to the swim???
But if a tri is on the cards and you wanna stick with the whole 10x10 thing… how about Deca-Ironman.

ps: I've been posting some random photography on my flickr page as of recent — check it out, if you're interested in seeing what happens when a worm gets behind the camera :D
I recently finished up some art designs for my friend Dusty Wright ( Culture Catch Ambassador / Laudable Musician ) who released an Xmas cover single for the 2010 holiday season.
This is not the version he ended up using — however, I felt a strong desire to post it here on my site because I happen to love the direction it took — and, it is also closest to the nsfw Wormintruder style as can get for this project.
Make sure to check out the version he used for the cover art too, ( flickr link below ) — the simplicity, which focuses more on him as the center art piece, is exactly as should be.
On a personal artists note: I love knowing that without the initial photo he provided for me to work with, this piece would not have transpired as it did – His hand extending the ornament to viewer really seals all the directional aspects which in turn inspired both pieces artistically. Major Baus.

And so I decided to return to the Land of the Lotus Tweeters, Facebook Likers, StumbleUpon'ers, FriendFeeders, Tumblr Lovers, ETC'ers; Come to find…nothing much has changed. Everyone is still happily gorging on meticulous postings aimed @Luring and securing buyer / seller relationships. Sincerity is flushed down the toilet, along with every other false premise that these web experiences we share are anything other than modern day television ads selling us a bit of salvation.
What this means is: There is NO place you can travel on the information highway, without your maneuvers being monitored. Web transparency as it were, is the only clear path through these tiers and mazes. Every choice you make, every link you click is a potential sale. Social networks are geared around augmented reality being the logical choice, and fully exploiting the core values of your every move. That is, unless you prove yourself unworthy of being followed. In this case, you'll be free to move unnoticed. Onward.
"If you buy into nothing, you are worth nothing in return. If you do not play along, then you are considered socially inept. Bullshit doesn't sell itself, and time runs on currency. You owe big time – So on, and so forth."
It is an issue of how valuable you are as potential customers to these marketing purveyors and their unending queries. The more impeccable your online tastes and preferences; the more you will be sought after as specimen prototype by which these very social structures are built upon. Hence, prepare to be hunted if you are exceptionally professional about sniffing out the good shit online. Expect for someone to come knocking on your back door for the key to enter. Expect the media cults to know your ip. Expect them to follow all of your updates.
"Spend. Spend. Spend. Spend more!"
Tracking digital trails has become a way of life for these social media guru types to plan their startup ventures – So, if you are living predominantly online, and are somewhat interesting, or impulsive in your spending / viewing habits, then you will not be capable of hiding from those who seek to exploit the fuck out of everything you 'like' for monetary value. Therefore, "NO" still remains the most powerful weapon in existence. See how this works?
Unfortunately this can also be very bad for the economy to completely resist every hard sell to arrive. So what is a person to do? Don't fucking ask me! I still buy shit too! Though, perhaps it is a call to be more conscious of our buying habits? Don't buy everything we want? Buy only what we need? Sounds reasonable, right? Lessgo…
"Virtual prey. Herders of cash. Exploiters of industry. Cliff dwellers teetering the brinks of bankruptcy. Simulated audiences addicted to the consumption of self. Victims generated by memetic pursuits and those seeking to rule the web. Simply and effectively phrased: Everyone is searching for a route to riches, via the www. In the end, everything revolves around money – And, if your wallet is empty? You do not count. Oops! But, that is another story altogether…"
DISCLAIMER: As was exhibited in the diatribe above…storytelling can also serve as a viable source for learning :) But remember, I only write these fictional accounts of censure as traveling companions to my collage art. So, take the words for their personal worth, and stay safe out there, folks!
"Fingertips haunted by the ardent desire to touch face. Fallen hair spiraling the contours of mere suggestion leading to embrace."
I dreamt that I told you everything.
Therefore, I suppose it should be considered a gift of love for having not?
So this year went by really fast.
Lots of changes. Lots of things staying the same too. I personally am not going to express a bah humbug'ish attitude about any of the things that didn't happen though – Because, I am mostly glad to have lived through another year safely and sound! Hellls Fuckkkin Xmass Belllls Yeaaah!!! I want more, more, more!!! hehehe :)
Into 2010 we go…
Love life. Love nature. Love family. Love humanity.
Strive for world peace~

She shows up wearing only a raincoat, and holding a vid in her hand…
We spoke earlier on the phone and agreed that our visit would be quick. I ask if she can help rid me of these unkind nightmares, to which she agrees we try. A common ritual as if to pretend either one cares beyond these next couple of hours…
Our history is vague but enduring. To say that she is an extremely strange girl doesn't really describe her shortcomings, nor my attraction for her. Although, in brief, she remains physically detached from most people; preferring instead to observe from safe distances. I strongly identify with this.
I'm not looking to save her. I don't imagine anyone can. She knows too much about living inside of herself, and what can never be repaired from wrongful experiences. She is downright scary when she opens her mouth to speak of this pain too. Her best position is in being fucked, because it seems to erase the hindrance. At least temporarily…
I give her lots of gifts. Expensive trinkets. Shit she doesn't care about. I don't sign any of the attached cards. My messages are always crude in nature. But, I like to think these shallow remarks make her laugh…
"Come over, I need a body to crush.."
"I don't love you, but I'll fuck you."
"You are nothing but a stropping wet cunt to me."
"I want to fill you up with my sticky hatred."
"If you were anyone else, I might consider supporting you."
She has this penchant for keeping me satiated despite being so very weird. I allow her to show up unannounced – Something I won't allow with anyone else. There isn't a need to analyze why. The point is that she allows me to impress 'whatever is most unbelievable' onto her. Who wouldn't remain open to this consideration?
Returning back into the night where she showed up wearing only the raincoat …
"Venus fly trap opens wide, and thus begins the outpouring of injured butterflies."
-=vlip=- Movie starts, nothing is broken. Said footage is of her wriggling about on the screen. Looks like an old silent film which is kind of cool. But, the quality is fucking terrible! Tinted blood red, draped across some bed with her tits spilling out. Arm lifts up, head tilts back. The End. Begin again. Simple loop…kind of stupid.
I ask her what she expects me to do with it, and she turns around. Oh fuck, there it is. The instant bone killer. Standing with a river of tears streaming down her face, I start thinking of ways to switch off. But, then she removes the raincoat as though some dissonant alarm has gone off within. We return to the reason 'why' she came over. This instant arrives where all is understood…
Slow motions of a woman lost inside pose. A time far removed from where we now stand. My guard lowers, and I'm following the weakness head first – Running, not walking to the golden speckle fuck inducer. I want her breathing heavy underneath me, if only to help her forget.
I want all of it…except for those tears.

*Feeling like I should reiterate the objective of this journal for those new to the site!
Here goes:
As terrible as my writing can be…I still like to consider myself somewhat of a storyteller. What this specifically means is that some of my journal entries will be works of fiction, with actual events used sparingly! Not every journal entry is true…not every journal entry is a complete lie either! It all varies as per presentation. My recycling techniques are also legendary around these parts. In this instance, it is the video. Why? Because it fits the tale! Best advice is to refrain from taking it all so 'literally'.
Feel something! Feel anything! Take care till next time~
1) In New York one need not consider the existance of other geographies.
2) The drive away co. kept our $150.00 deposit. They claim we stole the C.B. radio and burnt holes in the upholstery.
3) We live in an apartment we call a box (home sweet box, there's no place like box, bless this box.) The landlords call it a studio, which is a very polite way of putting it. It's a sub-sub-sublet and the landlord found out so we have to vacate said box at the end of the month. We have to find a real place to live anyway – so they can bang they box upside they haid.
4) I work at a sign shop doing layouts (drawings) for $250.00 a week (not enuf) It's a good shop, and I'll probably be making more money soon – just have to prove myself. The guy I work with, a brit named Ansley is an ex- record producer and indi- label head (rasta, funk, r&b) his wife couldn't hack all the musician types + coerced him into moving to Brooklyn. He's got a reggae buddy who wants to put a studio in his basement and Ansley has the bucks and the temptation so he'll probably get into it again. I hate working for a living.
5) Run DMC are the kings of rock and their heralds blast them on the street everywhere.
6) I paint all the time – I'm working on six paintings. The east village gallery scene is uninspiring, so is everything else (soho, midtown, noho) but it's summer and rather low key. The work I've seen is lame, no craft, no ideas, no guts.
7) Liberty weekend was wierd.
8) I haven't thought of playing music – although there is a lot to go listen to. All the bands bitch about the lack of clubs (they keep getting closed down) I hate the door men at the ones that are open.
9) New York stinks something awful in the summertime.
10) The buildings and streets are beautiful, a frontal continuous wall of hard textures broken by non sensical decoration like it's just been caught ripping off your t.v. set. I walked to work from the subway for almost 2 weeks before I noticed the empire state building was only a few blocks away looming over me like just another bunch of windows and bricks. When I noticed I realized I was only paying attention at street level. I look all around me now. Fuck'em if they think I'm a tourist – I am always.
11) If we get hungry at night, we can go eat anywhere. All night long. New York's agogo + everything tastes nice
12) A man attacked commuters with a samari sword at the statten island ferry last week – god told him to kill all Haitians + people from the midwest.
13) I have seen John Lurie, Allen Ginzburg, Stiv Bators, Bernard Goetz and various bums who used to be somebody on the streets.
14) I hope there's not a garbage strike this summer.
15) Fuck is used every other word here. The best was fuck you you fucking fuck.
16) All you guys should be here.
17) I have learned to eat while I walk.
18) We went to check out a homestead building (squatters) on our block, everybody bummed cigs. The entrance way was huge but filled with trash, no electricity, water or heat, just an empty shell of the building. We walked past the entry in the dark, back into the rear of the building over more trash and busted down doorways. The stairs had been ripped out long ago and a system of old fire escape ladders was the only thing to get up or down on. The building looked like what we would live in should the bomb go off.
The people who lived there were just camping out mostly punks, bums and fringe types, that weren't really interested in working on the place or buying it from the city – we stayed and talked + smoked cigarettes for a while anyways. I was sitting on the last available chair like surface in the room which was a cage turned on it's side with a rat on the inside. Guess we're not gonna live there.
19) I cut all my hair off, real short.
20) David Byrne hasn't had us over for lunch yet.
21) Everybody communicates through their answering machines here.
22) Today is Tuesday, the 10th or 15th or somewhere around there. It's after midnight I have to go to work in the morning.
23) The $10.00 is for busfare for the typewriter Jud. Could you ship it out for us on the greyhound to the Port Authority – Stick it in a box if you could. Please, we'd really like to have it. Address is Ray Abeyta … E. St NY NY 10009 PH# (my work) xxx – xxx- xxxx – Ask them to have New York call me. Thanks
24) Scratch you cats later.
Love Ramon

Posted by Aleyda Solis We live in a multi-device world, and if you're still focused on improving your visibility, traffic, and conversions solely for desktop users, you're losing a great opportunity. This gap, coupled with the fact that you're probably staying behind your competitors and unconnected with your audience, is not great for business. Not convinced? Let's see some data… Mobile search is booming. It's already driving important multi-channel conversions. However, we're still not doing our best for mobile and are losing opportunities. Despite the multichannel conversions that mobile search drives, we're still not making the most out of it. There are people that feel it is still too complicated and insecure to purchase goods on their smartphones: Unfortunately, what are now fundamental aspects on our desktop-focused optimization activities are sometimes still unknown when developing a mobile-focused presence, even for some very important websites. For example: A. Some websites don't have a mobile-focused presence Remember that, despite having an audience that may be using the most advanced smartphones and tablets, they still need an optimized offer that fulfills their specific behaviors (not necessarily the same than the one from the desktop users), providing the best experience according to their device characteristics (and device-specific restrictions). For example, can you guess which of these two sites provide me the best experience, is really optimized for me, will make me stay (as a consequence), and have a higher chance of conversions from me? Although I have an iPhone 5 and my fingers are tiny, it's very difficult for me to browse, interact, and consume information if the site doesn't have a version well-optimized for the device I'm using. B. Some sites have a mobile presence, but forget about optimization fundamentals On the other hand, other websites have a mobile presence (websites and apps included), but that doesn't mean they're really optimized. As I mentioned before, basics from our day-to-day "desktop focused" optimization activities are for some reason forgotten when we go mobile or tablet. For example, many websites love promoting their apps with intrusive interstitials that disrupt the user mobile web flow , requiring interaction from the user in order to continue: What about relevant, descriptive titles? This optimization basic is frequently forgotten, even by big websites when they go mobile (although these are well-optimized in their desktop versions): How about businesses that forget to create a landing page on their site for their own mobile apps? When you search for the app, you get the first results with iTunes store profiles that may confuse you (which one to choose?) featuring not-so-great descriptions, along with some posts with negative reviews: Time to get better control of your own app web results? Yes, please. Two questions arise from these situations: Can you blame people for not converting from their mobile devices? How can you change it? First, let's acknowledge the challenge of a multi-device ecosystem. Once we get a handle on it, we'll have an overall vision in order to make the best decisions, optimize your presence accordingly, and maximize your opportunities. Mobile, Tablet, Web vs. App: The Segmentation Challenge Usually, the first question we need to answer when we go mobile (whether smartphone or tablet focused) is: d o I develop a website or an app? As I shared in this State of Search post , your decision should be based on certain factors such as your business model; the goals you're trying to achieve; how important is for your content to have a wider reach, and if it is web indexable or not; whether or not you need to provide a complex functionality that requires a higher hardware integration or connection independence; and if your audience is highly-concentrated in few devices types and platforms. You'll need to asses these characteristics along with mobile web and apps pros and cons: When you're deciding whether going mobile with a website or an app is the best option for you, use the following visualization to analytze the alternatives: You'll see that is easier to target your mobile audience with less web presence than to do so with an app that is much more segmented. However, when you think beyond the development alternatives to target your mobile audience with the required functionalities and start thinking about how you can optimize, grow the visibility, and generate conversions, you'll find that most of the principles and good practices are the same (or can be easily extrapolated): Realize that, despite the many segmentation levels a multi-device presence may have from a development and audience perspective, there are optimization principles that are the same for any type of approach, platform, and device type that you should be taking into consideration in order to make the most out of the organic search channels to connect with your audience. It's now the time to identify these similar principles and good practices to make the most out the multi-device search opportunity, instead of focusing on its complexities as an excuse. Otherwise, you will stay behind. 3 Steps to Improve Your Visibility in a Multi-device Search World 1. Optimize your presence for multi-device search visibility People not only search for websites through web search, but also for apps (whether from smartphones, tablets, or desktops, remember we're in a multi-device world), so it's fundamental that you don't forget about creating and optimizing a mobile web presence to increase your mobile app visibility through web search, too. Take a look at the exact-match local monthly search volume for some mobile apps related keywords in the US, from desktop and laptop devices: And the volume for the searches from mobile devices with full Internet browsers: So, if you want to maximize the chances that your mobile presence (web or app) gets the search visibility, users, and conversions it deserves, then you need to make sure that it's easily found through the web search results. If you have a mobile app, you'll also need to take into consideration your visibility in the app store search. Let's see how! 1.1. Mobile web: select and optimize the best mobile web approach for your situation When you're developing a mobile website, the key is to select the best setting according to your characteristics, restrictions, and needs. These settings include responsive web, dynamic serving, or parallel mobile sites. I've posted and presented about these many times, so it may be easier to check out what I've shared before and avoid repeating myself. You'll see that each one of these alternatives have their pros and cons, as well as specific and general SEO best practices that I discussed in this Moz post and Mozinar some months ago about mobile SEO: Nonetheless, beyond specifically optimizing each mobile web alternative according to their characteristics, there are mobile web optimization fundamentals that should always be followed: 1.1.1. Reorganize your content to be correctly displayed in mobile devices Prioritizing the devices used by your audience (that you can identify through your Google Analytics "Audience > Mobile > Devices" report) gives the required visibility to the most important elements of your content. Think about your user's goals as well as your own, and align them to reorganize your web interface: Beware of elements (like flash or interstitials) that are not correctly displayed, don't work, or provide a bad user and search experience. Take a look at the following Mobile usability resources: Organizing Mobile by Luke Wroblewski Nielsen's Mobile Website and Application Usability Report and Mobile Site vs. Full Site article Brad Frost post about Content Parity 1.1.2. Optimize your mobile pages relevance Make your titles, meta descriptions, URLs, and, of course, your page's main content relevant for your mobile web audience. Take your keywords into consideration, and the visibility limitation of mobile search results in the different type of devices: Use mobile emulators and user agent switchers to easily validate by yourself how your own pages are shown in mobile search results (for smartphones and tablets, too), along with your competitors. 1.1.3. Enhance your pages visibility with structured markup and Google+ presence Use structured data markup (reviews, people, businesses, apps, etc.), Google's authorship , and create a presence in Google+ for your business to enhance your page's results visibility, not only in desktop results, but also in your mobile search results (where the visibility provided by these can be even higher in comparison): Google has also recently announced content recommendations for mobile sites with a Google+ presence that will make the visibility obtained with it even higher. 1.1.4. Make your mobile site fast Your mobile site has higher speed restrictions due to mobile networks and CPU capabilities, which means it's even more important to optimize its speed. Use your Google Analytics site speed report information to easily identify your pages load times and analyze them with Google's PageSpeed Insights mobile filter to identify opportunities to improve them: Follow PageSpeed's mobile best practices and take into consideration what's explained in this " Make the Mobile Web faster " article. 1.1.5. Serve the right web version according to the used device It's important to effectively identify the type of device (desktop, tablet, smartphone) used by your visitors and provide them the right web version by using different techniques according to the Mobile Web approach you're following: With CSS media-queries with responsive Web With User agent detection with dynamic serving With User agent detection and redirects with a parallel mobile site 1.2. Mobile apps: create and optimize landing pages for apps in your site Give visibility to your app beyond the app store search results by creating a landing page for each of your mobile apps on your own website. Make the landing pages relevant, and optimize them to rank for popular searches of users looking for your apps: Make sure to feature testimonials and reviews, and add a visible link to your app store page with call to actions to incentivize downloads: Integrate your social presence as well, inviting for shares in social networks: Additionally, Google has recently announced even more integration with Google+ for apps by showing Google+ Sign-In app activities in their results, which would also give your results more visibility: 1.2. App Store Search Although app store search optimization is still in early stages when we compare it with web search and is specific to each app store (Android Market and the Apple App Store), it's also evolving , aligning each time more with web search type of factors, with an algorithm that is looking to reward: Relevance: with the relevant terms in the App name, description, and keywords Popularity: with download rate, install base, ratings, comments, and even external review sites Take these into consideration for your app store presence, by optimizing the different elements of your profile: In addition to promoting, gamifying your mobile experience (with profiles, levels, badges, rewards, lists, etc.) to incentivize your app users activity is a huge download driver. Take a look at how successful apps do it, like Foursquare: You can additionally promote your app through relevant sites in the sector, such as app review blogs and communities: On the other hand, take into consideration that sometimes app store preview pages also rank in web search results and that there's also a specific "Applications" search feature in Google, listing only application related presence, for which these optimization best practices would be also beneficial in order to get a better visibility: There are also sites and tools like App Annie and Searchman that provide free app store statistics about the top apps per store, category, and country, which can serve you as an input when optimizing your app: 2. Cross promote between your multi-device presence Create awareness of your multi-device web and app presence through each other. Promote your mobile app in a non-intrusive way (no interstitials) by inviting users to download it when accessing the mobile site with a relevant device or to switch to another web version, as shown in these images: Make sure you also create awareness about your different multi-device presence through all of your channels, from email signatures to social profiles to your home page and emails, with updates and specially targeted mobile offers: 3. Measure to improve your multi-device presence You cannot improve what you cannot measure, so it's fundamental to track, continuously analyze, and make improvements not only to your desktop, but also to your mobile presence based on their analytics data. You can still using Google Analytics for this, which provides an SDK for mobile app analytics. 3.1. For your web presence You can use Google Analytics mobile reports and default segments along with your own advanced segments and dashboards to follow-up and verify if you're advancing as expected with the traffic and conversions volume and trend per device type, keywords, and pages: To easily check your Google Analytics campaign tagging and referrers for your mobile site (or your competitors), you can use user agent switchers along with Google Analytics debuggers extensions for your browser: For Firefox: use this user agent switcher and Google Analytics debugger For Chrome: use this user agent switcher and Google Analytics debugger Unfortunately, there are issues with the search referrer data that are not passed from the Safari search box in iOS 6 , and as a consequence, it's shown as direct traffic in your analytics platform. Something similar also happens for Android 4 mobile search traffic . Check out this post by AJ Khon showing how we can create an advanced segment in Google Analytics to calculate the approximate amount of the lost search traffic. 3.1. For your apps The mobile app analytics will give you information about the amount of active users, screen views, sessions to demographic information, used app versions, goal completions, and in-app revenue: Additionally, to verify your Google Analytics campaign tagging and referrers for your mobile app (or your competitors), you can set a proxy on your own computer, using a software like Charles Proxy (available for Windows and Mac), so you'll be able to monitor the HTTP traffic that goes through it, even the one from the apps installed on your mobile (that you'll need to set so it uses your computer as proxy). Follow these installation and configuration steps to set your computer as a proxy and configure your mobile network settings to use it as an HTTP proxy (you'll need to add in the manual proxy settings your computer IP as the server one with the 8888 port): Now you'll able to monitor the HTTP requests made from your mobile through Charles, including the ones made by your apps, as it can be seen in the following example: You can use this not only with your own apps, but with your competitor's to check how they're tracking their mobile traffic and with your providers or partners to see if they're effectively tagging their campaigns. Be sure to take a look at this Distilled post with a complete check-list that will guide you with the necessary settings and questions to better measure your mobile presence. Conclusion: There's no excuse. Start optimizing for multi-device search now. As you can see, there's no excuse to not optimize for a multi-device search ecosystem. It's true that the landscape may become more segmented, but many of the best practices and optimization steps can be aligned between the different presences, and will give you the chance to connect with an audience that you're likely already losing. Remember that search is always evolving, and if you don't catch it now, it might be even more difficult with new type of device and search interactions in a future that look even more segmented.

What is so thuggish?
Spot on correct.
In today's Metro Section of the Post:
See article, "Vote on Big Ten in Legal Doubt"
Last edited by slapshot; 11-21-2012 at 09:59 AM.
The article is uninformed and incorrect. MD Taxpayers will not be paying a dime, the buyout is being funded by the big 10. The move does not have to be approved by the Board of Regents this was just a courtesy extended to those members and really would have had no bearing on the move. It was the correct move for the University of Maryland in the long term. Everyone will miss the Duke game but if thats the only reason you are a MD fan then good riddance.
Not sure what article you read, but I was not referring to that.
As per the "legal experts" cited in the article, they say that the secret meeting, and I quote, "may have violated the Maryland Open Meetings Act".
No idea about the legality of all this...just pointing to the article. Nothing to do with the buyout, or what's best for Maryland, etc.

Tom McMillen states his opposition to the Board of Regents's decision to join B1G:
For someone who claims to be a professor at a major national university, you seem to have less than a full grasp on the use of hyperbole.
In case you're not smart enough to decode that: I did not actually piss on my UMD stuff.
We've interacted on other Sun forums. Very pleasantly, as I recall. Didn't realize you'd get so stupid when it comes to college sports.

Reviewer: DR Stuart (, ) 3.27.2013
Wonderful Fit.
I took the advice from other reviews, measured my head, looked at the size chart. Normally I would choose an XL or XXL but went with the XXXL. Fits like it was made for me. The only 'glitch' I have found so far is the two vents on top-sides do not seal at all. While they are small they will let some rain in. I have yet to extensively test the helmet but am looking forward to it.Reviewer: Doug (Kettle Falls, WA) 3.5.2012
Great Helmet
Very good fitting, great air flow, good visability & good price. Fast S/H too. Very happy with entire transaction.Reviewer: Luis (, Texas) 1.15.2012
Exquisite helmet!!
I got this helmet with the chatterbox and it is simply awesome! Going a "Legal" 90 MPH and could still hear my music! Very comfortable. I purchased everything through the phone and was happy to hear they do military discounts. I would recommend this helmet and chatterbox to everyone!

It comes as no surprise that the British magazine and star have partnered for the milestone in fashion magazine and editorial history. 2012 marks an exciting time for the nation as all eyes will be on the city of London as it hosts the 30th Summer Olympic Games. Beckham, the true embodiment of UK style stardom and athleticism, seems quite the natural choice for the groundbreaking issue.
Elle UK Editor-In-Chief Lorraine Candy released the statement adding, " David Beckham is a national hero, so we saw an opportunity to shoot a celebratory cover to support a historical and patriotic year...He is an icon and ELLE is known for featuring icons on its cover. This is a first for us on the newsstand and I believe he is loved by men and women alike."
The 36-year-old Beckham has had plenty of experience flexing his muscles, both on the soccer field and in front of cameras, appearing on the covers of Vanity Fair, GQ, Arena, various editions of Men's Health, Wall Street Journal Magazine, and even W magazine with wife Victoria, to name a few. The former Manchester United and LA Galaxy star has also been featured in Emporio Armani and recently H&M underwear campaigns, but this issue, set to appear on newsstands May 30th will mark the first time in which a male will appear solo for a women's magazine cover.
To celebrate this exciting time for us here at Glam Damn It people everywhere, we've compiled a slideshow below of Beckham's most memorable covers. Enjoy!

International Conference on "The Use of Special Investigation Techniques to Combat Terrorism and Other Forms of Serious Crime"
[30/04/2013] To protect society from terrorism and organised crime, law-enforcement must apply modern investigation methods incorporating the latest advances in technology. Gathering of information without alerting the suspect through interception of communication, electronic surveillance and other means known as "special investigation techniques" must be respectful of the Human Rights of all involved and ensure that the evidence obtained can be used in criminal procedures under the rule of law. On 14 and 15 May 2013, the Council of Europe will host in Strasbourg a Conference on special investigation techniques, in close co-operation with the UN Security Council Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and the League of Arab States. The aim of the Conference is to bring a broader perspective to examining the applicable international legal frameworks, to identify new developments since the adoption of CM Recommendation Rec(2005)10 on the use of special investigation techniques, and to exchange views and best practices on the new challenges and solutions.

New reports adopted by GRECO on Finland and Iceland
Finland encouraged to further sharpen its tools to prevent corruption [27/03/2013] Finland has an effective system for preventing corruption among members of parliament, judges and prosecutors. However, there is still room for improvement – particularly with regard to conflicts of interest among parliamentarians. These are the main findings of an evaluation report published today by the Council of Europe's Group of States against Corruption (GRECO). (more ...) Iceland urged to further strengthen anti-corruption measures [28/03/2013] Due to its unique circumstances, Iceland faces particular challenges in preventing corruption among its key institutions.

A new handbook on the protection of migrants : What are the means to protect migrants in the light of the two fundamental legal instruments of the Council of Europe, which are the European Convention of Human Rights and the European Social Charter ?
Proving its topicality every day, this question has been put at the core of a book signed by Yannis Ktistakis, lecturer in public international law. The book has just been published thanks to the efforts of the Directorate General I Human Rights and Rule of Law. The author proposes a handbook for legal practitioners, such as lawyers, judges, public officials, human rights defenders, etc., in order to make better known the rights of migrants and the practical means able to make these rights respected, both at national and international levels. The handbook is covering topics regarding the international standards applicable to migrants, their living conditions and economic, social and cultural rights, their detention conditions whenever this is the case, their right to family reunification, the expulsion of migrants, the application before the ECtHR, as well as collective complaints before the European Committee of Social Rights. The handbook is available on-line in English. It will be available soon also in French, German, Russian, Greek and Serbian.

Alright so I am a 17 year old girl, still in high school. I am very scared right now because my body is going through some things and I can't quite figure out whether or not this is due to a pregnancy or what. I received my period - thank god! - but then less than 2 weeks later, it came back. I didn't think much of it until my aunt asked if I had been having sex. The same exact thing happened to her when she got pregnant. I'm trying to disregard this but I recently just started experiencing what may be "morning sickness". I can't really keep food down. My food intake has gone up - but maybe that is just in my head. I really don't know what to think...help?!
P.S. I will take a test, but I'm having trouble getting one without my parents knowing.

November 23 – Happy Birthday Frank Tepedino
By 1967 it had become clear to most of us Bronx Bomber fans from the baby boom generation that the Yankee dynasty was no more. Mantle's knees buckled every time he swung his bat. All Star names like Maris, Kubek, Richardson and Boyer no longer appeared in the New York lineup, replaced by the likes of Whitaker, Clarke, Smith and Amaro. We became desperate for talent and hoped that every Yankee prospect who got a cup-of-coffee call-up to 161st street was the answer. Surely a Mike Hegan or a Ross Moschitto would evolve into a 30 home run hitter, or maybe it would be the Brooklyn native with movie star looks named Frank Tepedino. But none of them did.
Tepedino was just 19 years old when he made his pinstriped debut in May of 1967. He was a left-handed hitter who played first base so he was behind both Mickey Mantle and Hegan on that Yankee team's depth chart and barely saw any action during the three months he was on the Yankee roster. About the only thing he proved he could do at the big league level was drink, and by the time New York sent him back to the minors, Tepedino had become a full fledged alcoholic. He would get three more shots with the Yankees in 1969, '70 and '71 before getting traded to the Braves in 1973 for starting pitcher Pat Dobson. He had his best big league season his first year in Atlanta, hitting .304 in 74 games. He remained with the Braves until 1975, which is when his eight-season career in the Majors ended.
Tepedino returned to New York City and became a fireman. On September 11, 2001, he was on his way to the Twin Towers when they collapsed.
