I think, by definition, if you are reading this blog you are an inbound marketer or you are trying to better understand inbound. I write as a 20-year PR-man who has found Inbound Marketing as part of a quest to find better and more effective ways to measure PR and in the process I have found synergies between the two disciplines that I had not expected.
Although many PR people will be concerned about reputation management, or brand development or, perhaps, market positioning prior to a trade sale or an IPO, it is still as true today as it was 20 years ago that the major motivation for most organizations in undertaking PR for the first time is to help them to sell more and sell more easily. Does that strategy sound familiar to the Inbound Marketer?
Without further ado, let's investigate the ways you can rethink the relationship between Inbound and PR.
1. A Content Creation Connection
PR often gets a rough ride from Chief Execs whose perception of it (usually built up over many years of poor execution) is that it is just press release production. Write a story and throw it out there. Then see who will pick it up.
And good PRs are still seen by many as the ones who know some journalists: when they throw material out there, more of their connections read it, write about it and publish it.
Some of us PR folk consider that the ability to write a compelling story and (most importantly) to come up with an interesting or different 'angle.' This approach is still one of the key arts of good PR. Sounds a lot like content creation to the typical Inbound Marketer, right?
Couple this ability with the true skill in the PR world of creating clear thought leadership pieces on behalf of your client (even when there is no clear thought leader in the business) and even for the uninitiated, the world of PR starts to align more clearly with the world of 'content.' Similar to the world of Inbound Marketing, PR cannot survive without a rich and continuous supply of high quality content.
While seemingly different, both PR and Inbound Marketing rely heavily on quality content creation. It's essentially what separates the mediorce PRs and Inbound Marketers from the great ones.
2. Campaign Development
The production of well-targeted, web-optimized content across online channels forms the backbone to any successful Inbound Marketing campaign.
So where should you be looking for content for your campaigns?
To me, the answer is simple: the PRs. Think about it-- Who better to produce content for your website than the PR people who are already helping you to create compelling content for your PR campaigns?
Taking your PR-generated thought leadership material and editing it, rather than starting the creation from scratch, will save time and effort and sets the foundation for the creation of equally compelling e-Books and other gated-collateral that will draw people into dialogue with you.
PR tactics and expertise are then deployed as we take thought leadership content (such as opinions and commentary) and deploy them as sound-bite comments and blogs, in places where they will point back to our website and drive interested visitors to follow these links.
Inbound Marketing relies on the careful construction of well thought-out campaigns, and PR's framework of content development from a structured perspective provides a great opportunity to marry the two practices.
3. Interchangeable Skills
If you are an Inbound Marketer you better get some PR skills. And likewise, if you are in PR, better start learning about Inbound if you want to improve your value.
You see, PR became content marketing (which is considered an element of Inbound Marketing) at the point that the intermediary journalist was no longer part of the process. Technically, I cease to be a PR man at the point that I no longer have to persuade an editor or journalist that my article is worthy of publication.
I become a content marketer and publisher at the point that I place my own article on the web and look to Google or, more broadly, 'search' for my audience, rather than using the audience or readership that the publication has built up as a way of getting my views read. So the fundamental distinction comes at the publishing level.
That raises the question: Do I publish my own content on the web or do I persuade someone to publish it for me? I would suggest that irrespective of which route you go, the fundamental principles of good PR practice apply in the curation of content for use with all those media – whether they be social, online or traditional.
Both methods have their pros and cons, and only someone with PR and Inbound knowledge can really determine the most beneficial approach. If you're an Inbound Marketer, it might be time to brush up your PR skills. Likewise, it's now a fine time for PR folks to learn the ways of Inbound Marketing.
4. Inbound Reporting for PR Success
Much has been written about the need for accurate measurement of PR activity. Whilst there is no way to measure the direct effect that PR exposure can have on a company's bottom line, Inbound Marketing metrics to do with site traffic and gated downloadable content can shed light on how much traffic is being generated directly from PR coverage and how many visitors are downloading content as a result.
However, viewing PR activity as a component of a wider content strategy, and the consideration that all channels of content production complement each other in generating exposure and driving readers to and through the website may be more realistic. In so doing it allows for a more integrated set of analytics to be created and a clearer set of reports to be created.
Businesses should consider analysing metrics such as site traffic, social following, SEO ranking and lead conversion rates in order to monitor and prove the value of an integrated PR and Inbound Marketing campaign. There is no doubt in my mind, they have converged and the upheaval that this will create within PR agencies and in-house PR and marketing teams as they grapple up-skill and re-skill to create hybrid execs is just starting to roll-out into the market!

- This year's top underclassmen have made their final decisions on going pro or coming back to school. Which college programs held on to the most talent, and which ones will have big holes to fill this offseason?
Stay or go? For some college stars, the decision to leave early for the NFL draft as soon as they become eligible is an easy one. Many others need to take all the time they can to weigh every factor before making the call, leaving their teams to sweat out the first two weeks of January as their depth charts for next fall sit in limbo. Monday marked the deadline for underclassmen three years removed from high school to make a decision on entering the 2018 draft, and when the dust settled, some teams came away feeling pretty good about the talent they'll have coming back next season, while others have a clear sense of just how many holes they have to fill with incoming recruits and lightly-tested backups.
Below, a look at some notable teams whose 2018 outlooks hung on the status of their undecided underclassmen. An attempt was made not to penalize teams for losing players who have been expected to be surefire first-rounders since last summer—UCLA should not be deemed a "Loser" just because star quarterback Josh Rosen predictably made the leap to the pros, for example—but losses of that magnitude won't be ignored if they were one part of a mass exodus within a certain roster.
With that paperwork aside, let's crown some winners and losers.
Clemson: The Tigers were going to be just fine along the defensive line next year even if they had lost everyone who was free to leave—that's the magic of having hulking tackle Dexter Lawrence, the early front-runner for the No. 1 pick in 2019, in the fold for one more season. Only they didn't lose anyone. Clelin Ferrell and Austin Bryant announced they were coming back for one more year despite both ends yielding first-round projections from most draft pundits, and towards the end of the day on Monday, versatile tackle Christian Wilkins joined them. Those three players alone accounted for fully half of the Tigers' 46 sacks in '17, tied for the most in the nation. (Linebacker Kendall Joseph, the defense's second-leading tackler, also turned down the NFL for one more year.)
If Clemson finishes outside of the top three defenses in the nation next year in any meaningful statistical category, it will be a gigantic upset. That's enough to numb the sting of losing two key receivers, Deon Cain and Ray-Ray McCloud, along with big-play safety Van Smith. If quarterback Kelly Bryant takes another step forward, the Tigers could find themselves back in the playoff for a fourth consecutive year.
West Virginia: David Sills V finished the regular season with 18 touchdown catches to lead the nation, and he might have threatened 20 if quarterback Will Grier had not broken the middle finger on his throwing hand in a mid-November loss to Texas. Sills and Grier both had bankable pro futures to consider, but they'll be back this fall to give the Mountaineers an offense more than capable of making noise in the Big 12.
Missouri: It's hard to argue that any quarterback raised his stock more from September to December than Drew Lock, whose cannon arm lifted the Tigers out of an ugly 1–5 start and into bowl eligibility. Rather than scrap for attention behind the likes of Josh Rosen and Josh Allen in this year's class, Lock is putting his draft-season dissection off one more year to defend his nation-best touchdown pass total (44) and preserve some of Missouri's momentum after offensive coordinator Josh Heupel was hired away by UCF.
Stanford: Bryce Love will return to improve upon his runner-up finishes in the Heisman Trophy voting and the nation's rushing yards standings—and get his degree in the process. Stanford is losing a handful of talented defenders, including gap-clogger Harrison Phillips and cover corner Quenton Meeks, but the Cardinal can be trusted to reload more effectively on that side of the ball than on offense, where they sputtered when Love was banged up this year.
Washington: Quarterback Jake Browning will have a familiar backfield mate for his final season under center in Seattle: Myles Gaskin will be the Pac-12's leading returning rusher behind Love, with 1,380 yards and 21 touchdowns last fall. All-Pac-12 left tackle Trey Adams will also be back for his senior year after missing the back half of the season with a knee injury. Dominant defensive tackle Vita Vea is off to the pros, but the Huskies got a gift by having him stick around for 2017 in the first place.
Texas: The Longhorns lose three highly regarded defenders—linebacker Malik Jefferson and defensive backs Holton Hill and DeShon Elliott—left tackle Connor Williams and, perhaps most upsetting, punter Michael Dickson, the MVP of their Texas Bowl win. The talent of Tom Herman's first two star-studded recruiting classes may be tested early.
Florida State: The departure of star safety Derwin James was no surprise, but rangy cornerback Tarvarus McFadden and end Josh Sweat will be equally critical losses for a Seminoles defense that may be called upon to keep up with the frantic pace of new head coach Willie Taggart's preferred offense. That unit will be forced to replace a blossoming contributor of its own in Auden Tate, who became just the second FSU receiver in the past 10 years with double-digit touchdown catches in 2017.
Virginia Tech: With a first-round projection in hand, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds's decision to leave Blacksburg early was more than understandable, and his brother, safety Terrell Edmunds, followed suit. A more surprising loss for Bud Foster's defense was the departure of hulking, high-ceiling tackle Tim Settle, who left two years of eligibility on the table after registering 12.5 tackles for loss and four sacks in his only year as a starter.
Somewhere in the Middle
Auburn: The Tigers lose a pair of bruising runners early with the departure of Kerryon Johnson and Kamryn Pettway, but Gus Malzahn's offense has proven it can make productive backs out of lesser lights. Linebacker Jeff Holland and cornerback Carlton Davis represent huge losses for the defense, but coordinator Kevin Steele has earned the benefit of the doubt for the way he filled last year's holes. The draft decision deadline's key victory for Auburn was the retention of quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who will enter the fall as a marquee member of the top tier of SEC passers.
NC State: Ryan Finley's decision to return to Raleigh has been overlooked amid the flurry of quarterback moves elsewhere, but the Boise State transfer made it to mid-October without throwing an interception and sits third on the school's career completion percentage list at 60.4%. Running back Nyheim Hines's decision to capitalize off his breakout junior season should put some pressure on a Wolfpack offense that was already losing Swiss Army knife Jaylen Samuels. Much will be expected of defensive end Darian Roseboro, who'll see four senior defensive linemates move on to the next level this winter, including All-America Bradley Chubb.
Ohio State: Many of the Buckeyes' big early entry losses were painful but expected, potential first-rounders pass rusher Sam Hubbard and cornerback Denzel Ward chief among them. But the return of speedy wideout Parris Campbell and D-lineman Dre'Mont Jones ensured that the Buckeyes' 2019 draft class won't be short on first-day talent either.
USC: In July, Sam Darnold seemed to be as good as gone after the conclusion of his redshirt sophomore season. In October, reports began to swirl amid an inconsistent campaign that the Trojans' star quarterback may return to L.A. for one last tune-up year. Now in January, USC is back where it started, looking to replace a prodigious talent at QB. Setting aside Darnold's decision and the no-brainer call for running back Ronald Jones to go pro, the Trojans can take solace in the pieces that will be returning to the Coliseum, especially on defense, where linebackers Porter Gustin and Cameron Smith and physical corner Iman Marshall passed on the draft.

Welcome to another edition of our NBA Playoff Picks of the Day! With four games lining Sunday's slate, there is a ton of room for value and our handicappers have a bevy of picks!
The Bulls may be without Rajon Rondo, but they are going to adjust in Game 4 here at home. They relaxed a bit in Game 3 and could not shoot the ball well, but I think they put the ball in Jimmy Butler and Dwyane Wade's hands in this one to ensure that they don't have a young player handling the ball.
If they can make some shots in this one, which they have struggled to do at times this season, they should beat the Celtics. Boston's offense hasn't been that impressive in this series either and I think that Kevin Garnett motivational video has worn off by now.
That being said, the Bulls are the play here as home dogs. The sportsbooks have over-corrected thanks to Game 3 and while Rondo does seem to be an important part of this club, the books are overvaluing his absence.
The Bulls are still the bigger team, they are better on defense and they still have the best player on the court in Butler. As much as Rondo was giving Thomas trouble, I see the Bulls bouncing back in this one to get the win and the commanding 3-1 series lead.Free NBA Pick: Bulls +2Best Line Offered: at BetOnline
[/]{"component":"oddswidget", "eventId":3189252, "sportsbooksIds":[1096,238,93,19,1275], "LineTypeId":1, "PeriodTypeId":1 }[/]Clippers vs. Jazz
Now that the Clippers have lost Blake Griffin for the playoffs, this series has shifted once again. The Jazz should have won Game 3 but they let the Clippers back into the game in the second half and they probably know they should have won.
That should change here in Game 4. Without Griffin, the Jazz can absolutely throw everything they have at Chris Paul and even if Paul is getting 30-plus points, the Clippers don't have enough offense to make up for the loss of Griffin.
The Jazz, on the other hand, have been getting nice contributions from Joe Ingles, Joe Johnson and the rest of their role players, so if George Hill comes to play tonight against Paul, this one is over.
At just -3 favorites in the NBA Odds, the Jazz are the play here laying the points. At home this regular season, the Jazz held their opponents to just 95.2 points per game. Even with Rudy Gobert doubtful in this one, the Jazz should be able to get back to their stout home defense in this all-important Game 4.
After blowing Game 3 and knowing they cannot afford to go down 1-3 heading back to LA for Game 5, I think we get peak effort from Utah here. The Clippers have to be still hurting from the loss of Griffin and with all the adversity they have faced over the years, I think they lay down and die now that Griffin aka Mr. Glass is out again.Free NBA Pick: Jazz -3Best Line Offered: at Pinnacle

The idol of Sudarsanamoorthy features four arms, each carrying a different object: a conch shell, a chakra (discus), a gadha (mace) and a lotus bloom.
The foreground of the temple is spacious and paved with rough-hewn granite slabs. The Namaskaramandapam is also fittingly large and impressive. On the ceiling of this Mandapam are exquisitely carved figures of Ashtadikpalakas (guardians of the eight directions) with Lord Brahma in the middle.
A characteristic feature of Kerala temple architecture is that many Sreekovils contain more than one chamber. The large, circular Sreekovil contains three enclosures. Two circumambulatory paths go around the Garbhagriha. On one of them are some tall, granite pillars. A casual observer may not see the Dwarapalas (entrace guards) at first. They are installed within the veranda adjoining the Sreekovil.
The outer walls of the Sreekovil are profusely adorned with intricately sculpted woodwork. One of the very interesting sculptures is that of Devi breastfeeding Ganapathy. Depictions of this nature are very rare. Sculptures of Devi astride the Nandi with a bell in her hand, Ganapathy depicted in different rows and a frozen dance-and-music extravaganza are some of the visual treats here. On either side of a narrow doorway (which looks like a window), one can see miniature figures of an entourage of servant-gods.
The gold-plated flagmast on the eastern side of the Sudarsanamoorthy temple is taller than its counterpart for the Narasima temple.
For the rituals and pooja offerings, the well and the kitchen in the Sudarsanamoorthy premises are shared by the two temples.

63 games, hundreds of NBA hopefuls and one 94-by-50-foot stage for the best prospects in America to prove they belong at the next level. The main draw of the NCAA tournament is undoubtedly the upsets, the buzzer-beaters and the unparalleled passion, but March Madness also provides a better-than-ever glimpse at the best NBA draft prospects playing in the biggest games of their lives to date.
When it comes NBA draft stock, the NCAA tournament varies in importance depending on who you are. In years past, we've seen that a deep tournament run can elevate a player's stock a la Kemba Walker in 2011 or Buddy Hield in 2016, while a transcendent performance in a tournament-defining upset can help vault someone into the lottery, a la C.J. McCollum against Duke in 2012.
At the same time, poor showings from elite prospects don't always have a major effect. Andrew Wiggins went 1-for-6 in his last collegiate game, an ugly upset loss at the hands of Stanford, and went No. 1 the next summer. Jabari Parker went 4-of-14 and was ousted by Mercer the same year, and he was selected right after Wiggins. Two bad games, two tournament upsets and two top picks who have starred in the NBA.
So, there you go. The NCAA tournament is important for the NBA draft, and it's also not important. Clear as mud. Nevertheless, no matter how much stock you put into these performances, the Big Dance still offers a tremendous opportunity to get a look at the future of the Association.
With that in mind, and with 32 games set to play out over the next two days, you can click through the gallery for my 2017 first-round NBA mock draft. Note that the draft order is based on NBA standings as of March 15. (Getty)

If you've been wondering, Prime Underclass, where Reign has been for the past few weeks wonder no more!
@Matz_Enig The last episode we played was #5 – the series will return from ep6 next Thursday.
— Prime TV New Zealand (@Primetv_NZ) January 6, 2014
It comes back on the 16th of January (THIS WEEK!) when it will return to its usual slot with episode 6 'Chosen'. In the mean time let's talk about the events of the last episode that aired on Prime, episode 5: 'A Chill in the Air'. I do apologise that this is late, but at least I'm here with good news and hopefully some interesting banter for you!
So basically Olivia is Regina George and she's about to take Aaron back. And so Mary has to resort to fighting things the way girls do in girl world. It's a bit hard when Francis' mum (as informed by some prophecy) is totally backing Regina.
'A Chill in the Air' is that episode, the one written to appeal to the non-canon shippers waiting in the wings for Francis to slip up and for Bash to swoop in and- what? Father a bastard? Ruin the already tentative alliance between Scotland and France? Or just make her feel better when Francis is being a bit of a douche. Let's go with that last one.
Now plot-wise we've got a bit going on, mostly scheming on Catherine's part to get Mary usurped by Francis' former lover- a french blonde- in Francis' affections and hopefully knocked up. Granted this is starting to get formulaic, at this point you can bet that in each episode we'll have Catherine scheming to get Mary away from Francis, Francis feeling conflicted feelings and Mary left wondering why she loves someone so weak. Only this time Mary sees through it. She figures out the Queen's scheme and decides to play the b at her own game. But not before pointing out how hard it is out there for a female- double standards and whatnot.

We had a good nights sleep and we were all up relatively early for breakfast. We had decided the night before to have kind of an easy day of exploring the beach town of Raglan. Raglan is known for its surfing and its quaint little town. Unfortunately I forgot the memory card in my camera and the only pictures I have of this lovely little town are on a little disposable camera that will be developed sometime when we return to Chengdu. We had a fabulous day having a coffee in one of the many little coffee shops, looking around the little shops, having a lunch by the sea and watching the surfers surf.
On our way back to Hamilton we stopped at Bridal Veil's Fall which was also a nice little walk and gorgeous scenery.
I have already charged my batteries and put in the memory card into my camera, so I hope to have pictures to post of our adventure tomorrow. We are heading down to Waitomo Caves to check out the glow worms.

Cisco Grabs AppDynamics to Deepen Insight Delivery
Fresh on the heels of Cisco's Spark Board launch on Tuesday, the company announced its intent to acquire AppDynamics, a privately held application intelligence software company, for approximately $3.7 billion in cash and assumed equity awards. The deal is expected to close in Cisco's third-quarter of fiscal year 2017, ending April 30.
AppDynamics operates in the application performance and monitoring space. The eight-year-old company was in the process of going public -- "deep into the IPO process," and having raised its price range just hours before Cisco swooped in to acquire it, said David Wadhwani, AppDynamics CEO and president, during a joint media and investor briefing about the acquisition. As an AppDynamics customer for several years, Cisco recognized the synergies between their respective business models, added Rob Salvagno, Cisco VP of corporate development, in explaining the decision.
With AppDynamics, Cisco gains the ability to supplement the analytics and security capabilities it already delivers via products like Tetration with visibility into application performance across the network, said Rowan Trollope, SVP and GM of Cisco's IoT and Applications business, during the call. Such visibility "has never been more critical to running their businesses. ... Our customers have needed to instrument and get insight into the applications all the way from the customer down to the code," he added.
Cisco will now be able to provide a complete solution for intelligent network and application performance decision making -- infrastructure and applications analytics paired together to provide visibility and insight culled from both the network and the apps riding on top of it, Trollope said.
The deal represents a foundational software move for Cisco, which has been pivoting toward software and subscription-based revenue, Trollope noted. Given that AppDynamics has been growing at 50% annually and that 75% of its customers buy on a subscription-based model, according to Wadhwani, the synergy is readily apparent here.
Thomas Wyatt, VP and GM of Cisco's Cloud Analytics Group, shared perspective on how enterprises using Cisco's UC Spark cloud platform and services might benefit. "Collaboration apps are critical and their health and performance is vital," Wyatt told me in an email exchange. "AppDynamics monitors applications and end-user business transactions in real time, providing businesses the ability to react to issues before they surface. For example, if a video conferencing call is having performance issues such as video latency or lip sync problems, AppDynamics will provide the visibility to quickly identify the root cause, recommend a fix, and help remediate the issue."
Post acquisition, Wadhwani will continue leading AppDynamics, and will become a new software business unit inside of Cisco's IoT and Applications business, which Trollope heads.

Assay Information
Gene Information
The protein encoded by this gene is one of the eight subunits of COP9 signalosome a highly conserved protein complex that functions as an important regulator in multiple signaling pathways. The structure and function of COP9 signalosome is similar to that of the 19S regulatory particle of 26S proteasome. COP9 signalosome has been shown to interact with SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligases and act as a positive regulator of E3 ubiquitin ligases. This protein belongs to translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) superfamily. It is involved in the regulation of cell cycle and likely to be a cellular cofactor for HIV-1 accessory gene product Vpr.

I have an "organ transplant" theory for the explanation of success or failure in the process of selectinghigher education administrators, especially presidents. Selection of a president is, of course, a major responsibility of the board of trustees of any college or university. Trustees might benefit from considering imagery and vocabulary from the world of organ transplants when they face the responsibility of selecting a top administrator.
When you take a vital, healthy organ (i.e., an appropriately credentialed and experienced candidate) and transplant it into the body academic, you must be aware that that body has an immune system called tenure. If the organ fails to enculturate, just as a transplanted physical organ must enculturate to the recipient human body, then a rejection mechanism is triggered and the transplant fails.
Failed presidencies are not uncommon. Explanations for the failure often amount to a substitution of blame for analysis and typically overlook the reasons why the enculturation process did not work. Hence the value of the organ transplant analogy in helping to discover what might have gone wrong. And since enculturation is so critically important to the success of the process, one has to wonder why internal candidates, presumably already enculturated to this particular academic body, are so often excluded from consideration when the search begins.
The Preparation Process
Was the body academic prepared to receive the transplant? Board members have an important role to play in making sure that preparation happens. Was the organ ready for the new (and possibly hostile) environment? Was a language in place for effective communication between the new leader— the transplanted organ—and the major components of the receiving body—board members, faculty, students, alumni, associate administrators, and support staff, not to mention the key constituencies in the surrounding neighborhood, and political, business, religious, and cultural communities? Was the organ an effective communicator? While of all the qualifications a candidate for the presidency brings to the table, intelligence is probably the most important (you cannot run a university without a generous supply of good ideas), next in importance is the ability to communicate effectively.
The leader must convey an understanding of the factual realities of budget, audit, and all agreed-upon quantitative and qualitative measures of growth or decline. But were and are those measures, in fact, agreed upon? Board members should know. All participants in the campus conversation about morale, productivity, and new initiatives must be held to precision in the use of this vocabulary. Curiously, faculty members are all too often imprecise in discussing the institution's financial condition, but precision is most important when the conversation turns to finances. For instance, a budget is a planning document, resting on assumptions and subject to revision. An audit is a photograph, a "photo finish," if you will, of the way things were at the end of the last fiscal year. All participants in the campus conversation must be mindful of the distinction between audit and budget, and the categories within a budget as well as the audit must be understood by all participants in the conversation. Which funds are restricted and which are not should be clearly delineated. Not infrequently, there will be board members who simply do not comprehend these budget and audit categories and are thus unable to follow the conversation, let alone lead it. Board members with business experience can help offset that deficiency.
The numbers that find their way into both budgets and audits are products of measurements that depend, quite obviously, on metrics. So metrics must be part of the vocabulary employed in meaningful campus conversations. Not everything, of course, in higher education is measureable, so the unquantifiable has to find its way into the conversation without the assistance of numbers, graphs, and tables, but with the support of metaphor, image, idea, and visionary goals, even the articulation of an occasional dream. The vital signs or measurement benchmarks must, however, at the time of presidential transition, be reflective of reality. The institution cannot exist, grow, or survive, much less prosper, on promises. Hence the board, in preparing itself to make the transplant, and the candidate, in readying him- or herself for the operation, must keep the rhetoric close to reality and avoid even well-intentioned flights of fancy.
Which brings me to an observation. Academics will be the first to say that a college or university is not a business. If they're not run as businesses, however, they might quickly find themselves in trouble. Moreover, they seldom fail to look to business when recruiting board members but rarely look there when they want to fill executive vacancies. They look instead to themselves, often confining the list of potential candidates to the groves of academe.
The campus culture is clearly different from the corporate culture, but those who inhabit the corporate culture every day can bring a perspective to the campus, especially when executive search is in process, that is essential. Trustees with business experience are needed here.
Financial Health
Not all that long ago, colleges and universities employed what was called "fund accounting." They kept track of things with the assistance of four funds: 1) the current fund, recording all operating income and expenditures, as well as a hoped-for year-end current-fund surplus; 2) the plant fund, recording the value of the physical plant along with any "unexpended physical plant" money set aside for capital renewal or replacement; 3) the student-loan fund, with significant government funds not to be comingled with private money; and 4) the endowment, the cushion that is not to be touched for current operations but is expected to produce an annual yield in the range of 5 percent for student scholarships and faculty salaries and research, as well as some yield to keep up with inflation. One dollar of endowment gives you about a nickel for next year's operations. It takes a lot of endowment to generate significant salary, research, and scholarship support on a healthy campus. Adequacy or inadequacy of endowment speaks volumes about the health of the body about to receive the transplant.
The typical private college is tuition dependent and must, therefore, look to charitable donations to supplement tuition income. Hence the transplanted leader is expected not only to be capable of managing a complex organization, but also to be an effective fundraiser. He or she is not a magician, just an ordinary person entrusted with the responsibility of containing costs and generating the resources needed to keep the academic train on the tracks and rolling along on schedule at a reasonable speed.
Communicating with Faculty
The immune system that I mentioned earlier—tenure—can shield some, but not all, from participation in the conversation that generates new ideas, programs, and initiatives that might move the institution forward. "I'm secure," the non-participating faculty member might say. "If I like the new president's ideas, I'll cooperate; if not, I'll ignore them, do as I please, and just wait for another leader to come along. No one can lay a glove on me." Hence the need for any new leader to be both creative and persuasive, because ideas without persuasion will never see the light of day. The importance of communication cannot be over-emphasized. Board members must have confidence based on their conversations with the candidate as to whether their potential choice will be an effective communicator with faculty once the transplant has been completed.
The transplanted organ must also see him- or herself as available, accountable, and vulnerable. These are three essential qualities of successful leaders. Once in place, the president must be seen (available) as well as heard. He or she will have to openly take responsibility for all decisions (accountable), and be willing to take the harpoons (vulnerable) that will inevitably be heaved from any corner of discontent on campus.
Board members are an essential part of all of this. All too often they just show up on game day and never practice together beforehand. Some are on the board for the wrong reasons and simply don't belong there. Nonetheless, the president is their choice, and they have a fiduciary responsibility for a successful transplant and subsequent viability. Preparing themselves for the transplant is a trustee responsibility. Executive search firms can be helpful intermediaries but they are no substitute for direct interaction between candidate and board. The "surgeons" must quite literally have firsthand contact with the organ.
The Importance of a Well-Run Meeting
Knowing how to run a meeting is a necessary but insufficient qualification for leading either the institution or the board. Without well-run meetings, it is impossible to have a well-run college or university. Obviously the chair is the leader of the board, and the successful candidate will become leader of the institution. When an autopsy is run on a failed presidency, it will inevitably reveal some failed meeting mechanics at the board or the organizational level, or both.
Meetings move the institution. If the transplanted executive and the board chair are not meeting regularly and productively, if the board meetings make no allowance for executive performance evaluation, and if meetings conclude without consensus on what has been decided, it is just a matter of time until the need for a new leader will become evident and the transplant process will begin all over again. It is, therefore, critically important to attend to meeting mechanics and for all members to be comfortable with the chairperson's "style." I once served on a board—a healthcare insurance company—where the chairman was a surgeon. He always went immediately for the "incision"—the vote—after a motion was introduced and seconded, repeatedly failing to call for discussion before inviting the yeas and the nays. I was always one of the protesters who disrupted the process and insisted on discussion. It was just his style of running a meeting, no ill intent; but he had to be stopped so that all could be heard and the matter at hand receive full ventilation before decisions were made.
Preparation of the agenda must engage the board, or at least the executive committee. And the allocation of time for discussion is something to be taken seriously, with a view to encouraging all board members to speak, if they wish. This does not preclude employment of what is called a "consent agenda" to move things along hastily and clear away minor matters all at once.
Even though some matters may be handled efficiently and effectively by the executive committee, board members must be satisfied that participation on all essential matters is open to all trustees. When any board member is mute throughout a meeting, the chair must be both resourceful and polite in inviting, by name, the nonparticipantinto the conversation. Pockets of silence around the board table all too often point to persons who are resistant to the flow of progress or uninterested in the business before the board. That amounts to an unwritten letter of resignation, which should be invited by the chair—not during the meeting, of course, but later, in private, so that all the oars are in the water all the time and no one is simply there for the ride.
Presidential Experience
I served on several college and university boards before being invited to become president of the University of Scranton in 1975. I had noticed unexpressed discontent around the board table occasionally in my earlier board experience—nothing critical, just minor matters where it was evident that some board members were unhappy with the president. They never said so openly, but neither were they given the opportunity to.
Upon becoming a first-time president, I decided to excuse myself at the end of every board meeting, in order to give the board an opportunity to express, in the hearing of all, satisfaction or dissatisfaction with their president. The chairman would listen and later meet with me to share what he thought I should know. This amounted to a quarterly evaluation. Criticism was always constructive and usually accompanied by words of encouragement and appreciation. I profited from what I heard, and the board room was free of unexpressed grumbles when the day was done. The enculturation process, at least between board and president, continued apace and thus improved the prospects for positive enculturation with the rest of the body academic.
Communication and preparation are keys to the successful introduction (transplant) of a new president into an existing campus body. Board members have a role to play in preparing the institution and the community to accept a new president who was chosen not only for his or her ability to raise funds but to lead and communicate. The enculturation process, and the board's role therein, is key to keeping a new presidency from being a failed presidency.

If your robots use the old database storage system (Database Storage/Message/Info Environment), you will have to configure options on the 'Legacy' tab of the 'New Schedule Dialog'. However, we recommend that you rewrite these robots to use the new storage paradigm introduced in 7.2. You can read about the new storage system here.
The new storage system includes a new and improved database logging system, which is integrated into the Management Console, and allows you to 'jump' directly from a schedule to the errors generated by the robots.

Paddle over in a kayak, take your own boat or hop on the scheduled water taxi to the fun and lively atmosphere of the Dinghy Dock. This nautical themed pub is a short distance from the downtown harbour of Nanaimo, making it a favorite spot for locals and tourists. Sitting atop a dock attached to the shoreline of Protection Island, this is North America's only floating marine pub.
Unless you have your own boat the only way to get to the Dinghy Dock pub is on the Protection Island ferry. The ride over to the island is just ten minutes, but it's a scenic and enjoyable part of the unique experience. The ocean breeze is refreshing on a hot summer day.
Dining and having a pint of beer while watching the harbour activity of seaplanes, boats and ocean wildlife can not be beat. The pub offers one of the most spectacular views of Nanaimo's harbour and waterfront as well as nearby Newcastle Island. As night falls you can watch the city lights of Nanaimo come to life.
The menu is a variety of typical pub fare and seafood options. The steak sandwiches are raved about. Try the signature dessert dish "Sex In A Dinghy" it's very sweet, but delicious.
The legal age to sit in the pub and patio area is nineteen, there is a separate family friendly section as well. In the family seating there's a fishing hole cut out in the floor. Kids can try their luck dangling a hook in hopes of catching a small minnow.
The pub supports a variety of local musicians and singers. On our last visit there was a funky band that played a diversified mix of covers and could manage to do almost any request the crowd threw at them.
There is live music every weekend during July, August and into September. Check the pubs schedule for special music events that are occasionally held on weekdays as well.
The pub is open from May through to mid October. It's a popular place in the summer, the outside patio is packed. The interior space is kept pleasant with large garage style doors that opened to allow in fresh ocean air. There are lots of windows to take in the views as well.
The Protection Island Ferry leaves the Nanaimo boat basin behind the Port Place Shopping center at ten minutes past the hour. On busy summer days the schedule tends get erratic. If they continue to have full boat loads the ferry continuously runs people back and forth. It's only a ten minute ride in each direction so you never have too long of a wait. The cost is $9 return trip for adults, $6 for children under 12 and $8 for seniors.
The Dinghy Dock has ample tie slips making it possible to arrive in your own boat. It's also a popular kayaking destination. Large yachts anchor in the Nanaimo Harbour and arrive by dinghy, hence the pubs name. If you're lucky you might even spot a celebrity having a pint or two.
Dinghy Dock Marine Pub
8 Pirates Lane
Nanaimo, BC V9R 6R1
(250) 753-2373
If you have time during your visit to the pub, go for a stroll on Protection Island. It has a small population of friendly folks that get around the tiny island on golf carts! The entire place is like a pirate themed park with street names like Captain Morgan's Boulevard and Pirates Lane.

Hardwood & Engineered Hardwood Flooring
The breakdown of two premier flooring options.
The Joys of Hardwood Flooring
Hardwood flooring lends peerless beauty—not to mention real warmth and character—to any home, and does so while remaining sturdy and durable in the face of years of heavily trammeled use.
Wood flooring comes in two basic varieties: solid wood and engineered wood. The planks or strips of solid-wood flooring derive from single pieces of wood. Engineered-wood flooring, by contrast, is a composite, often made with hardwood-veneered plywood or fiberboard topped with a laminate that mimics real wood. Because of its multilayered, cross-ply design, engineered wood—which can be installed as a floating floor in addition to being attached directly to the subfloor or underlayment—doesn't warp much with shifting humidity, so it's a good choice for damper rooms like basements. One advantage of solid-wood flooring, meanwhile, is its greater thickness: You can sand down and refinish it numerous times, restoring its texture and luster over and over again. It's worth noting, however, that today's high-quality finishes can really stand the test of time: These days, refinishing needn't be a frequent chore.
Among the many benefits of hardwood flooring is the diversity of patterns, textures, and colors you can choose from. Whether as a solid plank or a veneer, the natural grain of hardwood makes for stunning décor. Oak, maple, cherry, hickory, ash—each hardwood type offers its own unique look based on the color of its heartwood and sapwood, the relative tightness of the grain, the conspicuousness of the rays, and other characteristics.
These features also vary, of course, based on how the wood's been lumbered and otherwise processed. Depending on the look you're going for and cost considerations, you can select among multiple grades of wood. These include clear (mostly derived from heartwood and generally uniform in color and grain), select (more variation in hue with a combination of heartwood and sapwood), No. 1 Common (with varying color and pronounced character via burls, knots, and other marks), and No. 2 Common (the most "rustic"-looking, encompassing the wood's full range of color and character differences). The manner of the wood's cut—plainsawn vs. quartersawn vs. riftsawn—also influences its appearance. And then of course there's the type and method of finish you use, giving you the option of highlighting the grain, enhancing or modifying the color, and maintaining more or less of a sheen to your flooring.
Gorgeous and long-lasting, hardwood flooring enhances any home. And with the broad spectrum of hues and patterns established by different species, grades, and cuts of wood, there's an option for just about any setting and ambience.
Located in Casper, Cheyenne, and Laramie, WY - Carpet One Floor and Home would love to discuss hardwood floors and answer any questions you may have on the product. Visit us today, or give us a call at 307-215-5726.

The women's clothing and multi-marketing company LuLaRoe announced an end to their relationship with the National Down Syndrome Society after one of the company's independent retailers was seen mocking those with special needs during a live stream sale.
According to a statement from Mark and DeAnne Stidham, the co-founders of LuLaRoe, posted to social media, the behavior exhibited by the independent retailer was "unacceptable and insensitive," and does not reflect the beliefs of LuLaRoe or their Independent Fashion Retailers.
The retailer who was in the video immediately apologized afterwards and reached out to the NDSS. He has said that he will use the incident as a learning experience and intends to focus his business "on support for the organization and its cause."
According to LuLaRoe, the NDSS were not willing to accept the man's apology and demanded that his contract be terminated or they would no longer work with the clothing company.
"This video is unacceptable and further perpetuates the stigmas we work to fight and end each and every day at NDSS,"the society wrote in a statement on their Facebook page.
But instead of terminating the contract, LuLaRoe sided with their retailer, stating that they believe his apology was sincere.
"We do not believe the most productive response to his actions, which he has fully apologized for, is to close his business and threaten his ability to provide for his family," the Stidham's wrote on Facebook.
Other Independent Retailers and customers took to social media to show their disapproval of the company's decision.
LuLaRoe said while their relationship has ended with the NDSS, they will not stop their commitment to playing a positive role in raising awareness and contributing to Down Syndrome Causes.
The Chairman of the Board for the NDSS, Gordon Spoor, wrote that the society will "continue advocating for all individuals with Down syndrome, the Down syndrome community and living our vital mission statement each and every single day."

He says:
Last year many people, including councillors' asked Reading Borough Council for advice about clearing snow. Unfortunately they were not in a position to give advice.
Marvelous. Interesting he says 'they', as though it was nothing to do with him!
This year, we are advised to read the 'snow code'.
If you clear snow and ice yourself, be careful - don't make the pathways more dangerous by causing them to refreeze. But don't be put off clearing paths because you're afraid someone will get injured.
If your neighbour will have difficulty getting in and out of their home, offer to clear snow and ice around their property as well. Check that any elderly or disabled neighbours are alright in the cold weather. If you're worried about them, contact your local council.
I've got home tonight after a six hour journey that should have taken two. So I would advise people to bring with them food, water, warm clothes. Keep a shovel in the car also.

2012 Rose Parade float preparations under way | abc7.com.
IRWINDALE, Calif. (KABC) — The countdown is on for the 123rd Pasadena Tournament of Roses and volunteers are working just about around the clock to get all the floats ready for one of the most popular parades in the world.
This year's theme is "Just Imagine." The parade will make its way through the streets of Pasadena on Jan. 2.
Loyola Marymount University is celebrating 100 years with its first ever float evoking images of the past and future.
Alumni raised $300,000 from private donors to make the float a reality.
"It was important to raise the money to do this because we didn't want to use any university dollars," said Kevin Delaney, class of 1993. "Being our centennial year, this is one of the keystone events."
Volunteers at the LMU float on Tuesday were in a long assembly line of people who were placing glue and perfecting every last petal.
The city of Glenadle was constructing its carnival-like float and the city of Los Angeles was readying some life-sized dinosaurs.
Several of the floats are also being built and decorated in Irwindale.
The AIDS Foundation float will feature Elizabeth Taylor, who was a big advocate for AIDS research. It will have 10,000 roses.
If you text the name "FLOWER" and the person's name to 20222, they will carve that person's name in the vial of water for those flowers.
The Nature Balance float is also being built at the Irwindale warehouse. It is continuing its tradition of the surfing dog with 65,000 gallons of water for the giant pool.
They are hoping to be the world's longest and heaviest float. The Guinness Book of World Records will be there later this week to determine that.
One of the more beautiful floats is the Kaiser Permanente caterpillar float.
"The name of our float is 'Everybody Walk,'" said Kaiser volunteer Mayra Suarez. "This is a caterpillar that's going to lead us into a healthier 2012. What we want to do is pretty much encourage folks to get out there and start moving. With just 30 minutes of exercise a day it's really a life-changing habit that we can all include into our lives."
Suarez said that along with the caterpillar, there will be nine float riders, all kids that have overcome life-threatening diseases.
J.R. Martinez, an Iraq war veteran and winner of the 13th season of "Dancing With The Stars," will be the grand marshal.

We may receive commissions on purchases made from our chosen links. Whether you want to add some lean muscle, lose weight, or take your workouts to the next level, supplementing with protein powders can help you achieve your fitness and health goals, as well as aid in your post-workout recovery. But with so many protein powders on the market, you may feel overwhelmed when searching for the right one for your needs, tastes, and budget. One of the most common and affordable options, whey protein powders, get their protein from the liquid that is typically thrown out when producing cheese. They taste great and give your metabolism a boost, so they're definitely appealing to those trying to drop a few pounds. So what should you look for in a whey protein powder? Quality is key, as some formulas may actually have less protein and more sugar than indicated on the label. All of the products on this list come from reputable manufacturers that have been ranked highly by Labdoor, an independent company that tests supplements for quality and accuracy of claims. Beyond that, your choice comes down to your specific needs, use, and dietary restrictions or preferences. We've rounded up the best whey protein powders so you can find one that's perfect for you. Our Top Picks Best Overall: Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Powder Buy on AmazonBuy on WalmartBuy on Gnc.com A leader in the category, Optimum Nutrition is known for its affordable, high-quality and tasty formulas, and this powder certainly delivers.

The powder comes in several different sizes (1, 2, 5 or 10 pounds), so you can pick the one that's best for your needs. Best Tasting: Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate Powder by Jay Robb Buy on Amazon If you're sick of protein powders that taste chalky or just lack in flavor, you'll delight your taste buds with this delicious, smooth formula.

While Mello Music's Lando Chill looks to release his debut album, For Mark, Your Son on August 12, here he shares a new video for the single, "Save Me" directed by Malcolm Critcher and cinematographer Symeon Platts.
Lando explains, "The type of loss... of faith, self identity, death of a father... this is what I grew to know as normal. writing this song, shooting this video... It isn't supposed to be an easy watch. I want you to delve down deep, find that pain you've been holding on to, and let it go like ash in the night wind... for the burden we carry is heavy, yet does not need to be carried alone."
Director Malcolm Critcher says, "Symeon and I focused heavily in pre-production on developing a narrative that reflected the quiet, contemplative nature of Save Me. It was very important to us that we cultivated an aesthetic that had the same minimalistic beauty the song has. Because of that we ended up shooting pretty much exclusively at Sunrise and Sunset. It was grueling, but completely worth it."
