As a Marketing and Social Media student, I am very much intrigued by the strategies or tactics that brands use to stand out in the market. I took a course in Strategic Marketing in my last semester and I understand that the word strategy has a strong meaning attached to it and businesses should clearly state their strategy in order to succeed in this competitive world.
In the world of business, it is common to use tactics for small tasks and strategy for bigger plans and goals. Although I understand that, this is not the only meaning behind these two powerful words. The terms strategy and tactics are often misunderstood and used in the same manner in the world of marketing. The attributes of these terms may be similar but there is a thin line that differentiates them.
This often confuses me and makes me wonder what is the difference between these two words that the business world goes crazy about?
Source: imgflip.com
I did my research and understood that –
A Strategy is a set of goals or milestones that have been set to be achieved by a company or an organization. Whereas, a tactic is the art of achieving smart and carefully crafted plan or decisions to accomplish the goal.
For example: When a team of six are working on a project. For them, the strategy is to get a good grade on the project. The planning, setting of milestones and getting the work done in a given time frame is the tactic. In simple words, WHY or WHAT do you want to achieve is a STRATEGY and HOW do you want to achieve it is a TACTIC.
Source : b-i.forbesimg.com
This video by David Kryscynski, perfectly describes the meaning of Strategy.
It is very important for organizations to define its strategy to efficiently achieve their goals. When a company executes a strategy, everything does not work as planned. Execution of the strategy might result in numerous conflicts. This might call for the company to react and take a decision and face the reality. This is where the tactics come in place. Tactics are aligned to the company's strategy.
While I was interning in a design firm, I clearly understood my monthly goals, however, I did not quite understand the bigger picture of my company's strategy from which my goals were developed. I thought about it and felt that I would have been happier if I had understood what my work was meant to achieve for my company. I am sure, many of us feel that way. I believe that it is important to educate the company's strategy to its employees so that they understand and get excited about their monthly/quarterly goals and work efficiently in-line to what the company has to achieve.
This video by Michael Porter thoroughly describes many things that people wrongly assume about strategy.
He says that most companies either don't have a strategy or they're confused about it. Even without a strategy, companies want to be the best and thrive on defeating their competition. According to Michael Porter, this is a dangerous way for companies to think about their competition and there is no such thing as being the best. However, companies or organizations can achieve their goals by being unique and by having a superior competitive advantage than thriving to beat their competition by being the best.
Talking about competitive advantage, this video by David Kryscynski gives us an insight about Porter's Generic Strategies.
Each generic strategy has its own attributes that serve to defend against the competition. Therefore, it is first important for the company/organization to identify their vision and strategize their goals tactfully. The key component for businesses is to set SMART objectives (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timely) in order to achieve their goals with the right tactics.
I believe that tactics and strategy go hand in hand. If you implement a tactic that is not consistent with your strategy, then it is an indication for you to rework and improvise your strategy.
I hope this blog post helped you in understanding the difference between strategy and tactics.
Please watch this video about strategic planning and SMART goals to get a better understanding of how strategic planning works.

Click here to watch our live-streaming services. BHS broadcasts Shabbat Services every Friday evening at 6:30pm and beginning in 2014 offers streaming for all of our High Holy Days services at Plymouth Church.
Our worship reflects and respects the diversity of practice that exists in both current and historic expressions of Jewish religious life. We value the variety of backgrounds from which our members come, and the diversity of practice that is part of their day-to-day lives. Our worship services attempt to welcome and engage the newcomer and old-timer and everyone in between.
Our egalitarian worship services, led by our Rabbis, Cantor, and Rabbinic Interns, are conducted in both Hebrew and English; transliterations are part of our prayerbook. Our worship is inclusive, participatory, musical and uplifting. Visitors invariably comment that they hope to join us again for worship.
Each week, we gather for Friday evening services in our sanctuary, and Saturday morning Torah Study (Chavurah) in our library. Bar and Bat Mitzvahs are celebrated at Shabbat morning Torah services in our Sanctuary on many Saturdays. Several times each year the Rabbi leads informal Shabbat morning services geared especially to 4th-6th graders and their families. Festival services are held in our sanctuary throughout the year. More information on our Family Shabbats can be found on our Religious School Shabbat page or Parenting Center page for Tot Shabbat and event for our youngest members.
Our egalitarian Friday evening Shabbat services, led by our Rabbi and our Rabbinic and Cantorial Interns, begin at 6:30 p.m. in the simple beauty of our Jerusalem stone and pear-wood Sanctuary.
First Shabbat: The 1st Friday of each month during the school year. Shabbat B'Yachad (Shabbat Together)- a family-oriented service led, in part, by our Religious School classes. Worship is followed by a potluck dinner open to the community.
Childcare is provided from 6:30pm to the end of services year round.
Second Shabbat/Sermon Series: Our annual sermons series from Rabbi Lippe on select second Shabbats.
Shir Shabbat with Simcha Blessings: Share your joys (birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, graduations, new jobs) with the community on the third Friday of most months. Cantor Ruben and the BHS Band lead a joyful musical service. Check the website calendar for dates.
The Other Friday Night: A Shabbat experience for young professionals. 6:30pm wine, beer, tea and appetizers.

During the summer months, Friday evening Shabbat services are often lay-led. Our members are encouraged to sign up to lead summer services. The Rabbi and Cantorial Intern are available to help you prepare to be a summer service leader. Recent B'nai Mitzvah and Confirmands are strongly encouraged to sign up.
Shabbat morning Chavurah meets in our Library, led by Rabbi Hara Person, Rabbi Lippe, Rabbi Molly Kane, or one of several local rabbis. A brief prayer service is followed by an extended and spirited discussion of the weekly Torah portion. Coffee, juice, bagels and pastries are served.
The weekly Torah portion (parasha) is read in English, paragraph by paragraph, with many pauses for discussion. Everyone present is welcome to contribute questions, ideas, reflections, concerns. Discussion is varied and is driven entirely by those present. From the scholarly--the way a word is written in the plural when it seems as if it should be singular, a rabbinic commentator's thoughts—to the political, including the power of contemporary political events to bring new meaning to an ancient text—to the personal— all discussion expands on the parasha's theme. The atmosphere is one of camaraderie with everyone learning from Torah, and from each other. Bring your own favorite chumash (English Torah translation and commentary), or use one of ours, including the recently published URJ Torah: A Women's Commentary.
On many Saturday mornings from September through June, we celebrate the coming of age of a Bar or Bat Mitzvah, at Shabbat morning services, including Torah reading in our Sanctuary beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Shabbat Morning Family Services
On four or five Shabbat mornings throughout the year, Rabbi Lippe leads a Shabbat morning service and Torah reading in the Sanctuary that is geared especially for families with students in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades of our Religious School, but open to the entire community. The service begins at 10:30am and concludes at noon. A light nosh is available just before services begin.
Welcoming Shabbat
Friday Mornings, 11:00 am
Rabbi Lippe, Fred the Frog, and Nod the Dragon lead a weekly half-hour of song and blessings to welcome Shabbat including table blessings on grape juice, and challah, on most Friday mornings from September through June. Welcoming Shabbat is appropriate for infants and toddlers accompanied by a parent, grandparent or care-giver. CD's of Welcoming Shabbat prayers and songs are available in the synagogue office to continue the tradition at home.
Tot Shabbat
First Saturday of each month, 9:30 am
Join Lauren Dubin for a fun-filled hour of song, prayer, storytelling, activities and noshing. For 2-5 year olds and their families. Concludes by 10:30 am with a kiddush of grape juice, challah and cookies.

Stroke: The Importance of Getting Help Right Away
Contributed by the RESCUE Project Team
About Stroke
Stroke, or "brain attack," is among the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. According to the American Heart Association, about 795,000 Americans suffer a stroke each year. This means that every 40 seconds somebody in the United States has a stroke.
Stroke affects people of all ages, race, gender and socio-economic status. Stroke happens very fast with little to no warning. Seeking medical attention immediately can make the difference between life and death. Every minute counts! Remember: 'Time lost is brain lost.'
The Warning Signs of a Stroke
If someone experiences one or more of the stroke warning signs listed below, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY! These changes may last or may start, briefly subside, and then return.
- Sudden numbness or weakness of face, arm, or leg (mainly on one side)
- Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, or loss of balance
- Sudden confusion or trouble talking or understanding speech
- Sudden bad headache with no known cause
Teaching someone how to recognize a stroke can be as easy as S-T-R.
- S - Ask the person to smile.
- T - Ask the person to talk or speak a simple sentence(coherently). Example: "It is sunny out today."
- R - Ask the person to raise both arms together.
Take the Warning: Stroke Ahead quiz to see if you can recognize the warning signs of stroke.

The VA website called Resources and Education for Stroke Caregivers' Understanding and Empowerment, or RESCUE for short, has a fact sheet called About Stroke, which gives general stroke information in easy-to-understand language. The fact sheet talks about:
- The risk factors for stroke
- Ways to lower stroke risk
- The importance of seeking immediate medical attention immediately
My HealtheVet Caregiver Center offers valuable information on VA and community resources to help you take better care of yourself as a caregiver and our Veteran.
My HealtheVet Stroke Center provides an overview of the condition, including symptoms, risk factors, diagnosis, treatment and medications.
Prevention Is The Best Way To A Stroke-Free Life. To help you better know what your risk is, make use of the checklist: What is Your Risk for Stroke? Keep this checklist handy. Use it to see if you or a loved one is at risk for stroke. If you answer "YES" to any of the risk factors, share this information with your health care team. They will discuss your risk and develop a prevention plan.

William received a cease and desist letter from Lucasfilm's legal team for MAD Magazine's parody of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980). Unknown to the lawyers, however, was that George Lucas had personally written a fan letter to MAD saying how much he loved the parody. William sent a copy of his letter to the lawyers, stating "Take it up with your boss." William never heard from them again.
The Gaines Orphanage featured in the Tales From The Crypt episode, "The Secret," is named after him.
William preferred finding restaurants that were located on downhill locations due to his weight being a strain on him.
William studied to be a chemistry teacher before going into publishing.
William's father was the publisher of the All-American Comics division of National Periodical Publications (now known as DC Comics) and was responsible for the introduction of many famous characters there, including the original Green Lantern.
William enjoyed poking fun at his EC Comics fans, often insulting them for their "poor reading choice" of his magazines, a tradition that cotinues to this day with MAD Magazine.
William allowed very little merchandising of MAD and personally approved/disapproved of potential products; he preferred foregoing profits rather than potentially giving fans poor merchandise.
William gave a lifetime subscription to letter writer Larry Stark for his critical opinions of MAD, which William valued a great deal. Stark later went on to become well-known theater critic in Boston.
William insisted on keeping the "cheap" gagline featured on the cover of MAD Magazine going by printing on low-quality paper; he even paid double when the paper was in short supply.
William did not allow advertisements to be placed in MAD Magazine during the course of his lifetime.
William was known for stopping business meetings to find out who placed long distance phone calls on the MAD offic telephones.
William allowed the name of MAD magazine to be attached to the 1980 Warner Brothers film "Up the Academy," but when the movie turned out to be a flop, he paid Warner to remove all references to the magazine from all future prints and even gave ticket refunds to for complaint letters from fans. This has since changed in the years since his death, as tv showings and the DVD for the film now have restored them, obviously due to Time Warner now owning MAD Magazine.
William kept adding more names to his place on MAD Magazine's staff page, until the end of his life, when he was referred to as "William Mildred Farnsworth Higgenbottom Pius Gaines IX Esq."
During one trip with his staff to Haiti in the 1960s, discovered there was only one subscriber to MAD Magazine there, and arranged to have everyone on the trip driven to the subscriber's house, where he presented the startled reader with a renewal card.
Trained as an Army Air Corps photographer during World War Two, but when assigned to the Oklahoma City base, was put on permanent kitchen duty as the base had no photographic facilities.
William never cared much for appearances, wearing a long white beard and horn-rimmed glasses to work throughout his later life. His artists at MAD Magazine would often draw him as he appeared and it became a very famous trademark for him.
William loved practical jokes, one time of which he put white wine in the watercoolers at the MAD Magazine offices.
William loved gourmet food and was a gourmet chef himself.
William testified in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1955, after being accused of promoting violence to children in his horror comics.
William would take every member of the "Mad" staff, every year, on a vacation with him around the world, paying all expenses out of his own pocket.
William wrote a personal apology to every letter-writer that was offended by the April 1974, Issue #166 MAD cover that featured, on a blue background, a hand with a middle finger raised with the proclamation underneath it of "Number One Ecch Magazine." The magazine itself was pulled and returned/destroyed from many newsstands and is now a hard-to-find collector's item.
William had an interest in Zeppelins, which he often had artists for MAD draw into the magazine. One MAD Yearbook (1965) even had a cut-out "build your own" MAD Zeppelin centerfold.
William liked to collect figures of the Statue Of Liberty.
William Gaines: MAD's philosophy is; we must never stop reminding the reader of how little value they get for their money!
William Gaines: Most of my major disappointments have turned out to be blessings in disguise. So whenever anything bad does happen to me, I kind of sit back and feel, well, if I give this enough time, it'll turn out that this was good, so I shan't worry about it too much.

I absolutely loved this episode, it was my favourite of season two and perhaps the whole series. I was delighted to finally see Sara and Michael re united although their problems are far from over. The show always leaves you wanting more but this one really drove me mad with two weeks to the next episode.
Although I never liked Haywires character I was really sad to see him go like he did, it was heart wrenchingly painful and sad! I was delighted with Saras attack on Paul Kellerman, it was exactly what he needed in my opinion! As for C Note and Dede, I loved their part in this episode as it humanized C Notes character even further.

Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
Can you verify that name? I Google'd it and the only hit is you talking about it in this tread. What is the company, as a starting point. Maybe a picture would help.
Aug 25, 2011 at 7:59 UTC
I found a reference under zioncom.net, but no driver. and iptime.co.kr
Aug 25, 2011 at 8:21 UTC
ipTIME is the name on the usb wireless dongel WLO1491008300844 is the number on the side of the dongel, i googled as well and saw that they use only the wlo149 as the "model" i suppose. Two other numbers on dongel are 861 10082900698 & 784476815012, also found the korean web page but cant understand a thing, also found this page but that has nothing on aswell http://www.iptime.com.my/ attached pic for you
thanks for the help
Aug 25, 2011 at 8:39 UTC
its not wlo149, but WL0149 (zero) btw
Aug 25, 2011 at 8:55 UTC
I looks like it may be made by a company named ZionCom, but I can't find the drivers on their site.
If you click on the product menu and choose Wireless LAN, and then go to the second page, you will see that they have a WLO149 product that looks like the one you have. Unfortunately, they don't have a download button for the software, and when I go to their download page, they don't list the WLO149 product. You may be able to send an email to their tech support.
*edit* - Simon beat me to it.
Aug 25, 2011 at 8:57 UTC
maybe I should have asked before, but which os are we talking about?
Does it need a driver at all?

Aligning fields to the formAsked by emmav06 on December 02, 2014 at 04:17 PM
i am struggling to piece together a form as each time i shrink a field and attempt to place it somewhere all the fields are jumping all around the form, making this extremely difficult/impossible to use. i have already spent 2 hours to no avail.
i have tried to use your interface in chrome, ie and firefox.
pls could you provide some insight as to why this thing is not working.
JotForm Support
We haven't received any reports like this so I'm not yet sure why the form builder is not working for you. Maybe you need to clear your browsers cache and try it again.
For Field Positioning, please follow this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/90-Form-Field-Positioning. You have to make sure that when moving fields, especially on the next line, you have to click "Move to a new line".
Also, aligning fields varies on your form width so make sure to adjust if needed: https://www.jotform.com/help/35-The-Importance-of-Form-Widths.
Lastly, you can design your form using our Form Designer and make a perfect column:
Thank you!

We have several remote users who work through RDP from home. At about 4 - 4:30 every day (gmt time - Im in Ireland) their connections slow down to a crawl and become unusable.
we have a small network, 1 domain (ms server 2003 dc) about 35 workstations.
only 3 or 4 people would be rdp,ing in at any time.
the servers are behind a 3com switch connected to a fortigate connected to a 3com router which routes out to all the internets through adsl.
So has anyone any suggestions either as to what might be happening or what software might be useful in monitoring the traffic to try and figure out whats going on?
im gonna fire up wireshark today anyway
Jan 18, 2012 at 9:56 UTC
Is someone sending mass emails or a process running during that time? As Olivia3009 stated a virus scan or even a virus update.
We had the same issue between or office and remote locations and it turned out to be virus updates passing from the server to the clients.
16 Replies
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:34 UTC
Do you have a backup running then?
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:34 UTC
SK Tech is an IT service provider.
I would look at scheduled tasks, backups, Spiceworks scans and Anti Virus scanning on the RDP server. Assuming all users are using different connections the only common links are the server and the broadband connection at your office. Personally I would check the server first as it should only take 2 minutes to see whats running.
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:39 UTC
Looks to me like you have some throughput issues at those times. Get something to monitor the throughput. Spiceworks can do some things like that, the router itself might have some features.
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:48 UTC
I would guess a scheduled task, by the sound of it. I traced a slow-down in our network at 2pm every day to a virus scan being run on all computers.
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:49 UTC
GCS Technologies is an IT service provider.
Have you tried running any internet speed tests when they're experiencing the slow downs?
Jan 18, 2012 at 8:53 UTC
Isn't that when the pub opens?
Jan 18, 2012 at 9:25 UTC
Jan 18, 2012 at 9:28 UTC
Pop Wireshark on a computer in between your network and the router and packet sniff the traffic between the hours in question. Depending upon your router model, you should be able to set a port as a monitor port and plug the monitoring computer/laptop into this. The latter will show if it is a traffic issue from your network (or traffic into your network) The time you state might also be a factor with your ADSL connection, if your connection is heavily contended, this will be when many folk get home from work and this contention really shows itself. (contention being the number of other connections your "pipe" is shared with......appologies for teaching grandma etc.) Then I would apply the same logic to your internal network and try to capture internal traffic with the packet sniffer (in the old days used a hub for this to ensure capturing all traffic, this can however bring down many modern switched networks by causing a bit of a storm)
If you have tried all of the previous suggestions, then the above would be my next move. Don't know if it would help in your network, but always worked for me on client sites (I used to get 1/2 hour to diagnose and fix these type of issues....)
Regards, :-)

When do the schools let out? Back in the dialup days, I remember having to wait for a line to be available once the kids started getting home from school.
We've got a few locations that are connected via DSL/cable modems, and their bandwidth drops to sometimes as little as 5-10% of advertised speeds as soon as the school buses pass through the area. Nothing like massively overselling a service area!

Hi thanks for the responses,
No backups, scheduled tasks or spiceworks scans as far as I can tell.
it started again today at 4:15pm.
But I'll have to investigate again 2moro as its time to go home.
Jan 18, 2012 at 12:28 UTC
Communication Group is an IT service provider.
The kids get home from school and you are using shared bandwidth. You need a dedicated circuit with a service level agreement. That's my guess.
Jan 22, 2012 at 2:25 UTC
What ISP are you using? I agree with telefox that's your going to be on a shared connection probably a 50:1 and / or the ISP you are using is traffic shaping. If its exactly the same time every day the. Its most likely traffic shaping

did you find out the cause?
Mar 30, 2012 at 5:39 UTC
Sorry I totally forgot I posted this question and to give a response ...
You were right on the money Stephen7712
Turns out someone was doing a mass emailling to large amount of customers and they had an large pdf attachment on each one.
also there was custom software package doing updates at the same time.
So live and learn, thanks for all the responses..

- Channel: Auction House
Shipping cost: (by EMS) US $70 Shipping insurance: US $
Overall Length; 98 cm Blade length 71 cm Payments : We Accept Paypal
Blade Blade: Full handmade Blade. Folded again and again during forging. Vivid undulating grain on the blade. Heat tempered. A long Hi on each side of blade. As the picturess showed, in good condition.
Edge: Sharp
Tang: Full tang with 1 Mekugi (peg)
Real handmade swords have a wood grain like pattern in the outer skin called the jihada. It comes from laminating many layers of steel to make the blade flexible. The blades are made by starting with a piece of hard steel to serve as the foundation of the sword. The skin or is made of hundreds of layers of softer steel that serve as a way to make the sword more flexible and resistant to breaking. Next the sword is covered in a ceramic like clay with just the cutting portion of the blade exposed and heated and tempered. This results in a very hard cutting edge on a flexible yet hard blade. Then the blade is adorned with artwork like the tsuba and handle and scabbard.
1>Do not attempt to sharpen the blade. The use of sharpening stones or (heaven forbid) a grinding wheel can cause the total destruction of the sword from a collectors

Clinton-Mezvinsky Wedding Details Emerge
His name may not ring a bell, but Chelsea Clinton's fiance, 32-year-old Marc Mezvinsky, is about to become the man of the hour.
Mezvinsky and Clinton first met as teenagers at a leadership retreat in 1993. They both attended Stanford University.
Pictures: Chelsea Clinton
Pictures: Her Wedding Guest List
Pictures: Power Weddings
He now works as an investment banker at a hedge fund and lives in a $4 million 3-bedroom apartment on New York's Fifth Avenue.
But his family has faced some adversity. Mezvinsky's father, former Iowa congressman Ed Mezvinksy, pleaded guilty to fraud and served five years in prison. He was released in 2008.
Observers say as children of politicians who faced public turmoil. Both Mezvinsky and Clinton understand how harsh a negative spotlight can be.
Sally Quinn, of the Washington Post, told CBS News, "Both of them understand each other in a way that no one else can. They understand what the other one has been through."
Now, their wedding is the talk of the town in upstate Rhinebeck, N.Y., where, despite no official confirmation that the wedding will happen at the nearby Astor Courts, the Rhinebeck town board voted to approve extra money for more police on Saturday.
A town board member said at the meeting, "I'd like to allocate $2,500 for the possible event."
CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano reported celebrity guests are reportedly staying at an historic inn in downtown Rhinebeck.
She said she's been told the owners have signed a confidentiality agreement.
But one person will definitely not be attending, Quijano said.
The White House said yesterday President Obama will not be in Rhinebeck.

text: Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:ESIO), a leading supplier of innovative laser-based manufacturing solutions for the microtechnology industry, today announced results for its fiscal 2014 first quarter ended June 29, 2013. Financial measures are provided on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, which excludes the impact of purchase accounting, equity compensation, restructuring and valuation allowance charges, and other items. Revenue in the first quarter was $46.2 million, compared to $39.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 and $59.0 million in the first quarter of last fiscal year. On a GAAP basis, net loss was $3.3 million or $0.11 per share, compared to net loss of $65.8 million or $2.23 per share in the prior quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, first quarter net income was $0.4 million or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $1.0 million or $0.03 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and net income of $1.9 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. First quarter results include approximately two months of operation from our acquired Semiconductor Systems business, which closed on May 3. "The first quarter was a busy and productive one for ESI," stated Nick Konidaris, president and CEO of ESI. "During the quarter we drove 17% revenue growth and returned to non-GAAP profitability. In addition, we acquired the GSI Semiconductor Systems business. More importantly, we made significant progress on several strategic growth initiatives." Orders for the first quarter increased to $58.3 million, compared to $44.1 million in the prior quarter. Konidaris continued, "We grew orders by over 30% sequentially, fueled by several design wins in advanced microfabrication, excellent performance in component test, and the addition of Semiconductor Systems. The quarter was also important strategically as we received customer acceptance on the first DiamondBlaze™ glass singulation system, booked and shipped our first order for dicing of ceramic substrates used in LED packaging, and reached agreements to place our 9900 advanced singulation platform at two major semiconductor manufacturers for technology development in next-generation thin film scribing and interposer dicing."

The Best Travel Backpacks Review
Travel backpacks come in all shapes, sizes, and styles. Cutting through the noise, we researched more than 60 models, choosing 11 of the best for hands-on testing. Our experts are all sick with the travel bug, so these packs trotted the globe for months by land, sea, and air.

Updated May 2017
There's no better time to see the world than now, and as of May 2017, we updated this review to include all of the information you need to get started on the right foot. Our update includes any product updates, as well as charts and graphs that help simplify model comparison. We also reviewed the current market, ensuring that our Editors' Choice winner is still the favorite.
Best Overall Travel Pack
The North Face Overhaul 40
The North Face Overhaul combines a trip-enhancing feature set with impeccable comfort and style, earning it top honors. This streamlined pack handled even the most awkward assortment of gear, taking away the headache of packing. Plus, we felt as comfortable carrying it through a busy airport terminal as we did while bringing it on the trail, thanks to a supportive suspension system and well-designed and accessible pockets. The Overhaul also provides a unique crossover from urban travel to rugged outdoor use, with plenty of durability for daily commutes and backcountry roaming. This all-around has a well-protected laptop sleeve, filling out its crossover potential. It's the perfect pack to handle truly anything you throw at it, or in it.

Best Bang for the Buck
Osprey Porter 46
The Osprey Porter 46 was a favorite among reviewers. At first, the clamshell foam wings and boxy design was off-putting, but through use, we found it to be durable, supportive for our electronics, easy to pack and unpack, and it seemed to gobble up gear more than contenders that claim to be larger. It is also a great value, at only $130 in a category that ranges all the way to $300. The Porter was comfortable on our backs, so long as we packed something soft on the bottom of the bag (this is the back panel, and it's a little thin, so not best to pack hard or awkwardly shaped items in the bottom of the pack). The suspension also tucks away so you can use the Porter more like a duffel. We reached for the Porter for a broad range of travel types, and were consistently pleased and impressed. Make sure to check out the two different sizes the Porter pack comes in; the Osprey Porter 30 and Osprey Porter 65.

Top Pick for Versatility
Osprey Farpoint 55
If you're a serious traveler, the Osprey Farpoint 55 stands above the rest and provides a fantastic set of features, along with good weight, durability, and comfort. This travel pack has numerous functional features and is comfortable to carry. The Farpoint's detachable daypack is convenient and we liked how it strapped easily onto the back of the pack with a zipper. The main pack also has buckles on its front shoulder straps that allow you to clip the daypack onto the front of the main pack and carry it kangaroo-style for added security and ease of access. This pack's panel loading design also made it easy to pack and unpack. Finally, we loved that we could leave the daypack in the hostel locker and take off on a three-night wilderness trek with the main pack. The Osprey Farpoint was an obvious choice as a Top Pick' for this review. This great pack also comes in a wide capacity, ranging from the Osprey Farpoint 40 to the Osprey Farpoint 80.

Top Pick, or The Goldilocks Award
Patagonia Headway MLC
Patagonia has a knack for finding its way to the top of the charts in most product categories. The Patagonia Headway MLC was not the travel pack you would want on a backpacking or climbing trip, but we had to give it a nod as a Top Pick because it was so easy to use as a general purpose travel backpack. It is best viewed as a duffel bag with a few extra, excellent features--most notably the laptop sleeve and backpack straps. This model was our go-to travel pack for last minute adventures of all types and lengths: it was so intuitive to pack, and just the right size for almost anything we could dream up. Not too big, not too small, the Headway MLC seemed to be just right. For 2017, Patagonia has added more color options, so you can further tailor this pack to your style. If you need a smaller bag, check out the $175 Patagonia Headway Brief 22.

Analysis and Test Results
After hours of research of the best the market has to offer, we purchased the 11 best and most popular models to put through the wringer. Our frequent-flyer testers took these models through many countries, airports, hostels, and taxis to assess their performance across several metrics. Along with our field experiences, we also weighed and measured the dimensions, thoroughly inspected each model for strengths and weaknesses, and designed tests to provide in-depth comparisons between all contenders. Each performance metric is described below with shout outs to the top packs in each category. The overall score, as shown in the rating table above, is useful, yet we also recommend you focus models that score highest in the performance areas most important to you and your travel style.
A travel-specific backpack that fits comfortably when weighed down with all your belongings is a sure-fire way to improve happiness and decrease frustration. Anyone who's traveled knows that travel days can be some of the most tiring of the trip. Maybe you're on a shoestring budget and your travel day requires going from hostel to boat dock to bus station to airport; or maybe you rented a charming Parisian apartment on the 7th floor, only to find that the elevator is broken, or doesn't exist. In either case, you'll be stoked that you took the time to find a comfortable backpack.
The Tortuga Outbreaker stole the show in the comfort department, as the only non-outdoorsy, travel-specific backpack to score an impressive 9 out of 10. It distributed weight to our hips and minimized strain on our shoulders. We noticed how balanced we felt with this pack--it didn't pull us backward or shift our center of gravity nearly as much as most of the other packs in the review.
Throughout our testing process, some of the most suitable contenders for backcountry travel, like our Top Pick winner, the Osprey Farpoint 55, were also the most comfortable. Packs with full suspension frames, well-padded hip belts, and load stabilizing straps will be most comfortable for the long haul. The Farpoint was equally comfortable stuffed with luggage and clothing as it was loaded down with climbing gear. Their other pack, the Osprey Porter 46 was much more minimal, but still at the top of the comfort category. Osprey is a company with an excellent reputation for carrying comfort.
We also paid close attention to the breathability of the shoulder straps and the air flow behind the back. The Mountain Hardwear Splitter 40, while a comfortable climbing specific travel backpack, lost some points here because it felt more like a bear hugging our backs than a breathable backpack. The Farpoint and the Kelty Redwing 44 have breathable mesh along the back and shoulder straps to help keep you cool, making them great options for extended carries and backpacking trips.
Perhaps more importantly, consider how a pack fits your body and how it feels once you've packed it up and taken it for a spin. Have a professional help you size it, or teach you how to measure and fit one yourself.
Finally, keep in mind that comfort is even more paramount if you're taking your pack on a backcountry adventure in between some urban excursions. While we would take the Farpoint on shorter backpacking trips, if you're planning a longer multi-night excursion into the wild, you may want to consider the Kelty Redwing 44. It is very comfortable but easier to pack for backcountry use due to a more cylindrical design and the option to load from the top. Alternatively, you could pair a backpacking backpack with a lightweight daypack for a super versatile combo that we've used around the globe. Typically, backpacking models will work better in the outdoors, so if you plan on embarking on spontaneous backcountry overnights, this combo could be your ideal setup.
The ideal travel backpack is one that will transition seamlessly with us, make transportation smooth and facilitate a fun travel experience. Simple, right? In reality, this can be quite complicated. Our experiences with our gear hinge on how well we have matched our choice to our use. In this category, we tried to lay out the best uses for each pack, and what features best enabled certain types of travel. In this way, you can read between the lines of the numerical ratings and award winners to find the pack that will best suit your needs.
Many of the packs in this review have a way of stowing the suspension system to check it in at the airport. We were of mixed feelings about the industry-wide enthusiasm for stowable suspension. After testing and thinking on it extensively, we developed this opinion: for carry-on packs like the Osprey Porter 46 and expandable models such as The North Face Overhaul 40, we like a suspension system that simply tucks away into the back panel, as both of these packs do. It makes great sense and eliminates the need for a separate flap of material to cover the suspension, which then must also have a pocket for you to stow the flap when using the pack in backpack mode.
We preferred the zippered panel for packs which were too large to be used as a carry-on. The reason is that the zippered panel covering is faster and easier to deploy, so it makes more sense for packs which will be checked in at the airport more often. The tucking method of stowing the suspension, as in the Overhaul and Porter, is harder and more time consuming, so this made more sense on packs which are rarely checked. Yet, it's still a fine feature for those times your flight is full and the airline is insisting on checking your carry-on, too (which seems to be happening more and more these days). It's also nice if you're carrying your bag as a briefcase or duffel style, slung over the shoulder with an accessory shoulder strap, as in the Cotopaxi Nazca.
In summary, ask yourself this: if you're using a backpack strictly as a carry-on, do you need the zippered flap to completely cover your suspension system?
A pack's features determine how versatile the pack will be, and there is a broad range within this small category of mid-size models. Perhaps you want a true Pack-of-all-Trades, a category which Osprey virtually dominates with the Osprey Farpoint 55 and its removable day pack. Or the Osprey Porter 46 which gobbles up all types of gear, but still manages to be comfortable on hikes, and is easy to get through airport security. Or perhaps you're traveling to go rock climbing in Southeast Asia, so you might like the Mountain Hardwear Splitter 40 for its climbing features, even though it's not the most airport savvy pack in this review.
Maybe you want one product that can do anything, like The North Face Overhaul 40, which crushed this category, earning a perfect 10 out of 10. It will go just about anywhere with you--from school or work to the gym, on a long weekend getaway, and on hiking trips. For a fully featured and well-balanced travel backpack, the Patagonia Headway MLC is an enticing product. If business travel is your main gig, you'll want a pack streamlined to get you and your electronics and valuable documents through security without a bump or hitch. The airport-ready Minaal Carry On 2.0 and the Tortuga Outbreaker will likely fit your needs: everything you need, nothing you don't.
We assessed how well these bags would work for urban travel, but we also considered how well they would work for other purposes (backpacking, rock climbing, bike commuting, carrying books and office supplies, etc.). Some of the packs can fit as a carry-on, some can be personal items, and some only work as checked bags.
We looked at the whole package of features on each backpack, assessing them for how intuitive and easy to use they are, and how well balanced the models were for general travel use.
Still scratching your head on how features should affect your travel pack choice? Our Buying Advice Guide offers some great tips to help you identify how you plan to use your pack and then to choose a bag that will meet your specific needs.
Packing & Accessibility
You can imagine that moment when you're standing at the bus stop on a dirt road in Costa Rica, and it starts to downpour, and then you realize that your rain jacket is snugly packed away underneath all your dirty underwear at the very bottom of your pack. And then you realize you can't get your jacket out without unloading all the undies into the rapidly forming puddles beside you.
Or, that moment when you're racing against time and reach the long line at security and, just before it's your turn, you realize that the 12 oz bottle of shampoo at the bottom of your bag is critically over the 3.4 oz limit and must be removed and discarded pronto in order to avoid extra scrutiny from overzealous TSA agents. We know the frantic and stressed feelings these types of travel situations produce and we dread them. Since we're often rushed and fall short of achieving genius status packing jobs, we decided to keep our eyes peeled for the easiest to pack and unpack travel bags we could find.
For tips on packing, check out our article on How to Pack Luggage Like a Pro
Some panel-loading packs have panels that zip all the way down, like the Farpoint, so you can quickly expose the entire contents of the pack and grab that rain jacket in a hurry. Others have more of a suitcase panel design, like the Patagonia Headway MLC, making it very easy to pack, unpack, find gear, etc. On some other packs, the zippers stop partway down the sides, like on the Kelty Redwing 44, allowing for ease of access with precision packing as backpackers appreciate in a traditional top-loading pack.
Additionally, we learned that bags with more structured walls, like the Osprey Porter 46 or Arc'teryx Covert CO are easier to pack. Within this category we also considered each bag's pockets and whether or not it had internal compression straps to keep contents in place. The Patagonia Headway MLC, while still a Top Pick winner, would have had a perfect score in this category, but we docked it one, giving it a 9 out of 10 for the floppy guts effect: when not packed full, soft items tended to slosh around inside the bag.
Further, we practiced packing each backpack with the same exact stuff to see which were easier to use and keep our clothes wrinkle free (or mostly). Some contenders that are smaller by stated volume made up the difference by their ability to have stuff strapped on the sides, at the bottom, or on top. The Gregory Compass 30 is an excellent example of a smaller pack that was able to fit everything we needed by lashing a couple of items to the outside of the pack. Obviously, this is not how you would want to roll into airport security, lest they say you have too much stuff and must wear the wetsuit strapped on the outside of the pack to get through security. Yikes.
When you're investing in a pack, it's always good to know that it's going to last. This is especially true if you're prepping for a gap-year type of trip where you're going to be on the road for quite a while. We looked up the denier (or D) ratings for each of the bags in this review. The higher the denier rating, the denser the fibers, which generally translates to a stronger fabric. The only exception is when comparing denier ratings on different types of fabrics, for example, 420D nylon is significantly stronger than a polyester fabric with the same rating. The Cotopaxi Nazca and the Mountain Hardwear Splitter 40 had two of the highest strength fabric ratings, but note that this comes at a cost in weight, as measured in ounces per liter capacity of the bag.
Beyond fabric quality, the design has a significant influence on durability. In regular use, are there any areas of the pack which are unnecessarily strained? We looked for bursting seams and straining zippers when we packed the bags to the max. How well will this product hold up to regular use? And how well will it handle being tossed and rolled around the airport conveyor system if you do have to check it in? If the pack has stowable hip and shoulder straps, how well would it protect the bag from rowdy luggage handlers?
We also considered zipper durability and angles where repeated use may cause them to wear out sooner. The Arc'teryx Covert CO and the Tortuga Outbreaker both had zippers that turned right angles, an obvious spot to watch for strain. The performances of the two were quite different, however. The Arc'teryx bag had a strong, smooth zipper which glided smoothly no matter how much we overstuffed the bag; the Tortuga's smaller zipper teeth, however, often got caught up as we tried to close the pack, even if it wasn't overstuffed.
The Minaal Carry-On 2.0 got its best score in this category, with an impressive 9 out of 10, in large part for the use of 600 and 1000 denier nylon. Wow! In addition to its high-quality fabrics and components, the sleek design adds to its overall durability. It is sewn into a shape that is unlikely to get caught up on baggage carousels and retains strength under significant stress and strain.
Finally, we packed each pack to the brim and took them out into the field. We toted these packs around for weekend camping trips, week long road trips, and weeks-long international trips. We hopped from bus to taxi to subway, then hit the trails, beaches, and towns, all the while looking for any signs of abnormal wear and tear on our decidedly normal travel adventures.
Weight & Volume
Pack weight is an important consideration when you're attempting to meet airline requirements, or simply looking at the inevitability of lugging your stuff around. The travel packs we reviewed range significantly in weight and volume. Because the packs we tested range in volume, we didn't think it was fair to compare the weights of each without accounting for their volume.
We analyzed each pack's weight-to-volume ratio and reported the weight (in ounces) of each pack per liter that it holds. This gave a boost to some of the smaller models that lost points in other categories due to the inherent limits of smaller packs and helped to balance out our metrics. A higher score in this category may correlate with a higher price point, as stronger, lighter materials are the Holy Grail of travel.
Our top scorers in this category were, thus, made of lighter materials, measured in ounces per liter of volume. The Gregory Compass 30 shared the highest score of 8 out of 10 with the Cotopaxi Nazca 24 and the Kelty Redwing 44. These three have very different volumes, though it is important to note that the lightest bag overall was the 30-liter Compass, not the Nazca, though it was our smallest pack at only 24 liters.
Finding the right travel backpack can be almost as important as finding the right travel companion: you want to find luggage, and people, to match your rhythm, needs, and priorities. We spent some quality time adventuring with eleven of the most popular and intriguing travel-specific backpacks out there, took lots of notes, and brought it all together for you here. We hope this review has helped you sort through your travel needs to find the gear that gets you where you want to go. Find the right match. Set yourself up for success. You'll form lasting friendships, collect adventures and stories, and perhaps most of all, avoid excess baggage.

Gibbon, John (1827-1896) to Henry Jackson Hunt
Gilder Lehrman Collection #: GLC02382.054
Author/Creator: Gibbon, John (1827-1896)
Place Written: Fort Laramie, Wyoming
Type: Autograph letter signed
Date: 14 December 1884
Pagination: 6 p. : envelope ; 20.1 x 30.1 cm.
Summary of Content: Discusses current events, including recent elections. Writes that Hunt may be in a position to aid the army by influencing the Secretary of War to prohibit army appointments made by politicians. Writes "Try to have a rule adopted by which every officer shall have a 'service record' kept in the A.G.O. setting forth every duty he has performed, & the recommendations of the officers under whom he has served." Encourages military advancement by merit. Hopes the new President (Grover Cleveland, to take office in 1885), will make changes in medical programs for veterans. Encourages Hunt to remain at his post in Washington, D.C., hoping for positive future changes for veterans. Recalls Charles Sumner's statement to Edwin Stanton, Secretary of War under President Andrew Johnson, when Stanton refused to leave his post: "Stick!" Expresses sympathy that Hunt's oldest son left for the Colorado frontier, and discusses the Western climate. A newspaper article, apparently glued to page one, discusses the problem in Gibbon's military district of starving Shoshone and Arapahoe tribes. The article encourages donations of food for these tribes, to prevent their killing of ranchers' livestock. A pencil note on verso of the clipping asks: "Could you get this printed in some Washington paper? It might do some good."

he is really distant, I know very little about him. he almost never talks about his feelings. now we are exclusive, he wanted that. but we Haven't met for 2 weeks, he told me because he has to prepare for his exam, but he had time for basketball and didn't study that much. he is handsome and cute and funny and everything I want. and he doesn't bring up sex, we have only kissed and nothing more. and our dates are about talking not kissing. why did he want to be exclusive with me if he is that distant?
Most Helpful Guy
Well being distant is something a lot of guys go through at some point. Especially if the guy has trouble with women breaking his heart, or if he's had a rough life before. Sometimes it's hard to let someone in. Still that doesn't mean he doesn't like you, and sure he's been busy for a couple weeks, with things like school and basketball, because these things can eat up a lot of time. But again, it doesn't necessarily mean he doesn't like you. More likely it means two things. One: It means he has trust issues letting people in. (and) Two: It means he has very poor time management skills, and hasn't prioritized making time. Why did he want to be exclusive with you? Easy. He like you. He wants to date you, but hasn't had much time. As for his time management, that's something you can take care of now, but addressing this issue with him, as soon as possible, and telling him how important it is. The other stuff, like getting to know you, and letting you in, that might take time, and you may want to decide yourself if he's worth it. Your choice. Still, none of what you talked about means he doesn't like you. Not necessarily.32|10|0
Forget about what the other guy is telling you. I don't think he's necessarily trying to play you. As I said, I think it's most likely that he likes you, but is distant for a reason, and his studies and basketball likely comes down to time management. Talk to him about to him spending more time, see what you can get out of that, or try to figure out if you think he's worth the time and energy to show him he can open up to you, whenever he's ready.
thanks for the advice (: my biggest concern is that I have no idea how much affection I should show,cause I want to kiss him and hug him and tell him how much I miss him, but I don't want to be clingy. and its not easy for me to open up either.
It's hard to figure these things out, because it's different for everyone. For now I'd just tackle one thing at a time. First see if you can't get to some kind of arrangement regarding the time he spends with you. I mean it's been two weeks. I don't think you're being unreasonable if you asked to see him more. As for what's clingy, you can always hammer that stuff out later.
