Empower Network was solo-founded and co-created in October 2011 by Mr. David Wood as a way to help anyone who was looking to launch a home-based online business / professional presented digital marketing products / direct sales opportunity get started.
There are two ways to make money from The Empower Network. First, you can sell Empower Network products and earn commissions from those sales. Or, you can get other people to join the Empower Network and earn money from their training products and marketing materials to go along with their flagship blogging system, Kalatu.
There are a variety of membership tiers in the Empower Network, each of which has different perks and commission structures. Let's review Empower Network for 2015 and beyond.
What is the Empower Network?
The Empower Network was founded by two guys named David Wood and David Sharpe. David Wood has a background in free traffic blogging and video marketing, while David Sharpe calls himself a paid traffic specialist and profitable presentation copy writer.
Together, they started a unique business called Empower Network. The network was founded back in 2011 and is still going strong today even though Mr Sharpe has since stepped down due to personal reasons.
How Does the Empower Network Work?
Empower Network is fueled by two things:
— Product Sales
— Membership Sales
Like most multilevel marketing-style businesses, Empower Network costs money to join. Depending on which membership level you choose, you'll also have to pay additional monthly fees.
The "products" are simply all of the different memberships and bonus packages for Empower Network, like the Viral Blogging Academy and the $15K Formula.
When you sell those products, or sell someone an Empower Network membership, you get a cut of that commission.
Empower Network Products
Since the products and memberships are essentially the same, I'll dive right into how much the Empower Network costs to join.
Here's how the pricing breaks down for Empower Network membership:
Blogging Platform – $25 Per Month
This membership level gives you access to the Empower Network's unique blogging platform called Blog Beast. You'll also receive access to basic training materials, back office tools, lead capture systems, and "Monday Night Empower Hour."
Blog Beast is a content management system similar to WordPress. It's what Empower Network members use to create their blogs and websites online. Even someone with limited technical knowledge can publish a blog post with just two clicks. You can also track sales conversions and personal progress.
Blog Beast advertises itself as being superior to WordPress, although it has a few major disadvantages. First, Blog Beast costs money, while WordPress is free. Second, Empower Network controls certain parts of your website – including the advertisements that appear. You also cannot post YouTube videos, as Empower Network hosts all of the videos.
Add to that the lack of themes and tech support and you start to learn why WordPress is considered the better blogging platform. However, if you join Empower Network, Blog Beast is your only option.
The Inner Circle Membership – $100 Per Month
With this membership level, users have access to a library of audio files. These audio files contain speeches and tutorials from other members of the Empower Network.
You can hear from Empower Network team leaders and members, for example, or even listen to guides from the founders of Empower Network.
When you buy into this membership tier, you have the right to earn commissions by selling this membership tier and lower.
The Costa Rica Mastermind Intensive – $500 Single Payment
The Costa Rica Mastermind Intensive package gives access to a video series created during a private 3-day retreat in Costa Rica. That retreat involved top Empower Network members as well as David Wood himself, co-founder of EN.
The retreat took place at David Wood's house in Costa Rica. The videos explain many of the concepts behind capturing online leads, growing an audience, and implementing advanced marketing strategies.
The Team Building Formula – $1,000 Single Payment
This program includes intense technical training which will explain how members can market their products online. You'll learn how to earn targeted leads and turn those targeted leads into real profit. There are also training guides on how to grow an online business which lasts long-term.
Masters Retreat – $3,500 Single Payment
The Masters Retreat includes over 40 individual training guides as well as a workbook. It promises to help EN members "learn as they earn."
Other Fees and Additional Information
There's one other perk worth mentioning with each of these tiers: when you purchase a tier, you earn the right to sell that tier to new members (and more importantly, earn commissions from those new members).
Of course, if you're only a $25 per month member and you refer someone who buys a higher package, then you won't earn commissions on that sale.
If you want to get paid while working with the Empower Network (I assume you do), then you'll also need to pay $20 every month for your payment card. Otherwise, you won't be able to access any of the commission money or affiliate fees you've earned.
It's also important to note that you need to pay all of the fees in the tier to join the program. For example, if you want to buy the Member's Retreat membership, you'll also need to pay $100 per month for the Inner Circle Membership and $25 per month for the Kalatu membership. New members may find that these fees completely wipe out any income they've earned.
There are plenty of other hidden fees involved with your Empower Network affiliate membership. I call them "hidden" fees because they're not disclosed until you're actually a member. You're charged additional fees for your auto responder, paid advertising, additional web hosting (beyond your one included site), additional domain purchases, and many more.
But this is just the nature of the beast. Be prepared to bust your balls and back to make this work. But once you get it, you got it!
Other Empower Network Products
The unique thing about the Empower Network is that everybody is selling the same thing: you're selling Empower Network products that tell other people how to grow a work-from-home business.
In addition to the packages and membership levels I've listed above, there are a number of other add-ons and products available:
— Viral Blogging Academy ($297): Video course on how to monetize a viral blogging system.
— High Ticket Academy ($497): Three webinars explaining how to close "high ticket" sales, which are larger purchases from premium clients.
— High Traffic Academy ($997): Also called the Internet Traffic Formula, this Vick Strizheus-led course was exceptionally popular before Strizheus left the Empower Network. He recently launched High Traffic Academy 2.0, but it's not affiliated with the Empower Network.
— Top Producer Formula ($497): David Wood calls this his "secret training vault". In this vault, he features lessons explaining how to sell anything you want in the internet marketing industry.
Empower Network Commission Structure
Empower Network has a very unique commission structure. Like all good multilevel marketing companies, this commission structure funnels commissions to the top of the network while leaving lower tiers with very little.
Here's how it works:
— You earn commission when someone buys a product through your affiliate link. That commission ranges from $5 to $5,000.
— You don't earn commission on certain product sales. You won't earn commission on your first, third, fifth and every fifth product sale. Instead, that commission goes to your sponsor (the person in the tier above you). (but they are adding more value-based components into their newer 2015 compensation plan enhancements – stay tuned for those advancements)
— You earn commission from all of the affiliates who join below you. So if someone buys an entry-level Kalatu blogging platform membership for $25 per month, you receive affiliate commissions per month every month until that person cancels.
— Just like your sponsor earns money from you, you earn money from the people below you. The person below you gives commission from their second, fourth, sixth, and every fifth sale to you.
— You also earn nearly 70% commission on all Empower Network product purchases, like going 'ALL IN' or just starting with the Kalatu Viral Blogging System.
Obviously, this system is good if you sell lots of products every month. If you sell fewer than 6 products every month, then half of your hard-earned commissions are going to someone else instead of ending up in your pocket.
It's important to note that the commission structure line is specific to each product: each product has its own counter. So you're passing up the first commission on every first, third and fifth, and every fifth sale thereafter.
That won't really affect people who only sell one or two different products. But if you sell 6-7 of a dozen different products every month, you'll end up missing out on a lot of commission because of this structure.
Of course, this might just motivate you to continue building the network below you, in which case you can start earning substantially more money.
Disadvantages of the Empower Network
The Empower Network is far from perfect. Here are some important things to know about the Empower Network before you join:
Most People Will Lose Money
Like most network marketing businesses, the vast majority of members will lose money. With the Empower Network, some people have put this percentage as high as 97%. In other words, out of 100 people who sign up for the company, just three can expect to turn a profit.
That doesn't mean you won't make money with the Empower Network: it just means that you won't make a net profit due to the large number of fees and charges.
Difficult to Rank Empower Network Blogs
Since 2011, many websites have tried to crack down on Empower Network spam. Members would start an EN blog and then run wild on the internet, spamming links wherever they could go. As a result, Facebook banned Empower Network blog links.
Google has also de-listed some EN blogs from search rankings, and even brand new EN blogs are difficult to rank – even if you can find a website that accepts Empower Network links. Expect to get more traffic through paid sources than free sources like SEO.
Limited Blog Functionality
When you sign up for the Empower Network, you get access to Blog Beast, which is EN's website creation system. This system is similar to WordPress in some ways: you can upload a blog post in just two clicks. But it falls short in many other areas. You can't post YouTube links, for example, because all videos must be hosted on the Empower Network.
You also only have a limited number of themes with which to work. Oh, and it costs $25 per month to use the service. Compared to WordPress, which is free, Blog Beast is clearly inferior.
Lots of Competitors
A decade ago, starting a website and selling products online could be a lucrative business even for beginners. Today, however, it's easy for anyone to make their own website online. You don't have to look far online to find people selling products just like the ones Empower Network is selling.
In fact, you're literally going up against millions of competitors – many of which offer lower prices, better products, and more honest pricing policies.
Upsells Everywhere You Turn
Every time you visit an Empower Network blog, you'll see banners talking about how awesome your life will be after joining the Empower Network – and how crappy it will be if you don't join. Even after you join, you're bombarded with upsells everywhere you go. Even if you buy the biggest membership package, you'll still receive upsells for Empower Network "add-on" programs like iPAS 2.0 and Big Idea Mastermind, among others.
Conclusion: Who Should Join the Empower Network?
The Empower Network is a unique marketing opportunity which promises to help anyone create their own profitable at-home business.
Most people, unfortunately, won't make much money with the Empower Network. Unless you're in the top tier of affiliates, it can be difficult to sell enough products and Empower Network memberships to overcome the network's high monthly fees.
However, if you work hard enough to overcome all of the challenges we listed under the "Disadvantages" section, then you may be able to generate substantial income with the Empower Network – especially if you have a large network of productive network members underneath you.

This blows my mind... I totalyl had a DUH! moment when I seen this...

THAT is really cool! It
THAT is really cool! It would be a great teaching technique for young people and kids who were curious about where thread/yarn/clothes come from! I can see them having a really good time and learning skills that could translate into more prosaic fibre production. I can see possibilities for revolutionizing Vacation Bible School Crafts, Girl/Boy Scout merit badges, even as an adult meditation technique. I was thinking if you sat crosslegged on a revolving stool in a modified lotus position with one foot to turn yourself, it would almost be like a buddhist prayer wheel. hmmmm why didn't Gandhi think of this???

Just Amazing! If I ever get into spinning, I'll definitely try this first. I'd love to see a video of someone spinning yarn this way using music and a dance routine. Or even a jump rope jingle... I think that this method has got lots of possibilities. And that yarn looked pretty good too! It's amazing.

You can't re invent the wheel and even though she is an amazing lady,and this looks like a fun thing to do, but if you are a spinner on a drop spindle like me I can tell you that you will not be able to do this for more than 30 minutes a days maximum an hour. It looks like a lot of fun , but definitely very impractical. I will want to see 300 yards on those rubber balls and then getting a bigger ball like a pilates ball to ply them together!lol!
It looks mildly aerobic!
It looks mildly aerobic! I'm guessing you would need to pre-draft, though - I don't know how you would be able to have much drafting control while simultaneously jumping yarn that way.
For me, this doesn't look like it flows, though - there's a lot of discontinuous action. The thing I like about spinning is that after getting in the groove, you can turn your mind off, let your hands and feet think for themselves, and feel the flow of the fiber through your hands.
this would be great fun with
this would be great fun with children...and a piece of roving.

Jon honored at BMI Awards
by Jon Abel on Aug.08, 2012, under Music, News
Jon was honored at the 2012 BMI Music Awards for his part in co-writing the song "My Help Comes From The Lord." The Museum (BEC Records) released the song on their debut album Let Love Win and it was among the most performed songs on Christian radio in 2011.
How Far You Came To Save (Song & Story)
by Jon Abel on Mar.17, 2011, under Life, Music
Some of you will remember me releasing this song as a Christmas gift a couple Decembers ago. We had such a great response, it wasn't a tough decision to record a fresh version and put it on the new EP. Unlike the other songs on Rescue, this tune took many months to write. The melody came easy, but Doug McKelvey and I went back and forth wrestling with the lyrics in our attempt to accurately describe the incarnation in a fresh way. With songwriting, I sometimes struggle with the feeling (and often the reality) that I'm writing the same song over and over, using an overused vocabulary while not offering much content that will make listeners truly think and genuinely respond in some way. So I pray….and though there are days that get the best of me, this struggle challenges me to keep pushing onward in writing songs that make a difference.
The story behind "How Far You Came To Save" is really the story in the song. The powerful and mysterious story of the Gospel. You'll see what I mean when you read Romans 5:6-10.
"You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, while we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation."
Humanity separated from God, terminally diseased by our own sin, a perfect & holy Creator, His Savior-Son becoming human to endure the wrath we deserve on the cross, and the amazing resurrection reconciling us to God, crushing death, and forever giving hope and salvation to all who put their faith in Him.
Our goal was to not only describe this(in two verses, a chorus and a bridge:), but also offer words of response to God to thank Him and worship Him. So we behold his glory, in the wonders of His grace, and our souls will forever sing of the spiritual and physical "distance" He endured to save us. In our estimation, this truly is the greatest mystery.
Father God (Song & Story)
by Jon Abel on Dec.03, 2010, under Life, Music
The day Robbie Seay and I sat down at his church(Ecclesia) in Houston to write this song, he was dealing with a situation which involved some friends of his, an orphan from Haiti, the press, and a Congressman's private plane. (much more important than our song) In short, a family from Ecclesia adopted a boy named Ronel from Haiti and was trying to get him home. Ronel and his new father, who traveled to Port Au Prince to pick him up, were held back because of "red tape" on the U.S. side. If I remember correctly, they had to sleep on the floor of Haiti's U.S. Embassy for over a week. So as we were writing this song, Robbie had to take many calls and answer numerous texts in his effort to do everything he could to help get these guys back to Houston, which included attempts to charter private planes to go pick them up.
In retrospect, it's amazing to me that any cohesive lyrics, much less a whole song was written that day. As we were wrapping it up, Robbie received one more call letting him know that Ronel and his dad had been given the green light and were finally on their way to Houston International. We jumped in the car and met a couple hundred people from Ecclesia and members of the press at the airport. When the H-town/Haitian duo came into view, the crowd began to cheer and celebrate as Ronel was united with the rest of his new family. The picture below doesn't do it justice, but I'll never forget the look on Ronel's face. The words that come to mind are relief, safe, rescue, secure, and loved.
As I watched all this unfold, I was struck by all the similarities of God's story of rescue for us. "Father God" is a song written to be sung by the Church(the adopted) in response to our Father's great love. (Phil.2 and Eph.2)

You Rescued Me (song & story)
by Jon Abel on Oct.18, 2010, under Life, Music
Singer/songwriter/producer, Andy Osenga, and I wrote this together at his studio in Nashville. It's one of those songs that when we were in the middle of writing it, we got a "this is going to be a cool tune" kind of vibe in the air. I remember liking it right away because it was refreshing to write something that was different from a lot of songs I write.(melodically and lyrically) Songs have a way coming to life in the writing process so we just tried to get out of the way and let it breathe.
If you read my last post, I mentioned that 2 Samuel 22 was a chapter in Scripture that spoke deeply to me over the past couple years throughout my recovery and healing. This chapter in 2 Samuel is a song that David sang about a traumatic experience in his life so reading it was kind of like an old friend counseling, leading, reminding, and walking with me through mine. Needless to say, this chapter highly influenced the song as it gave us a blueprint for the lyrical structure and story. Here's the progression as we saw it:
1. The day of disaster (vs. 5-6)
2. David cries out to God (vs. 7)
3. God's epic reaction which reveals His heart for us in times of trial and disaster (vs. 8-16)
4. God's rescue (vs. 17-19)
5. David's restoration (vs. 18-20)
6. Declaration of God's faithfulness (vs. 29-51)
There are songs that you write just to write a song and then there are songs that come from the soul. This one is of the later. Tell us what you think. Leave a comment. Feel free to share your story of rescue. Share it with a friend. Be reminded of God's faithfulness and encouraged that He is still and will always be mighty to rescue and save.

How does one get to be a celebrity personal assistant—aside from knowing someone, of course?
—Dawn, New York
How does one get to be a celebrity personal assistant—aside from knowing someone, of course?
—Dawn, New York
The B!tch Replies: The best way to find a private human punching bag is to approach other human punching bags and ask who might like a change of dungeon. From a prisoner's perspective, the rack can seem rather thrilling if you've spent the last three years under thumbscrews or deep in Chinese water torture.
Where do such servants get their start? At the shops on Rodeo Drive or Robertson Boulevard, of course, taking a prime role in closing down a boutique for private celebrity shopping sprees, shooing away paparazzi or fetching sushi-free sushi plates for a vegetarian like Pam Anderson or air lattes for a visiting Victoria Beckham.
All that makes an ideal education for a potential assistant, according to my finest sources inside the Hollywood service industry.
"If you have a salesperson who has worked at Gucci or Versace, they know exactly how to deal with that kind of clientele," explains Charles Hawkins, concierge at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
Celebrities often start their searches at a hotel concierge desk. Sometimes, in fact, the search also ends there.
"I've been called myself by [recruiting] agencies saying, 'We would love for you to come in for an interview,' " Hawkins says. "Some are very blunt. They'll contact you one way or another."
Hawkins instead refers guests to one of two top local headhunters who specialize in personal assistants for celebrities. These recruiters are so exclusive that at least one won't take your call without a go-between.
Other personal valets cut their teeth as production assistants on film shoots. If you find yourself on the set of Jessica Simpson's latest hootenanny, and you know how to find her favorite brand of Restylane-flavored bubble gum in record time, day or night, you just might become the next Cacee Cobb. It's just that exciting, y'all.
Once hired, expect your stay to be short.
"I'm always surprised when an assistant has been with someone for a period of years," instead of weeks or months, says Hawkins, who, through the Four Seasons, has catered to bazillions of A-listers and their staffs.
Still, that sort of news shouldn't worry you, Dawn. You can always go back to fetch cups of air for Victoria.

It's super early and I got four hours of shuteye, and for some reason these factors are making me want to write this as an open letter to the film. But I won't. No one wants that. I don't want that.
But as I sit on the floor at this ungodly hour, just so I can be guaranteed a spot for Much Ado About Nothing, I find myself increasingly angry at The Incredible Burt Wonderstone.
Staring Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, and Jim Carey, BW looks good on paper, and it is, at times, hilarious. Like laugh out loud, did they actually just do that? Hilarious. But this tale of aging, struggling, jaded Vegas magicians is only truly successfully when it is unabashedly going for it.
There's weird stuff going on with this film's tone. At times a crass, genuinely funny comedy, at others, a garbled faux love story. And I suppose that's my issue. What should have been the story of two old friends (Carell and Buscemi) falling out and subsequently rekindling their relationship with both each other and their craft, is actually about Carell and Olivia Wilde getting together. Nothing bothers me more than a tacked on love story.
Perhaps Carell's titular character is a womanizer because we the audience had to know the life-long friends were just that—friends. No funny business here, guys! Move along! We aren't *gasp* gay! But doth protest too much, Burt. And your (and the film's) constant objectification of women isn't cute. When the Wonderstone character inevitably changes his ways, gets the girl, and becomes a "better man," I didn't care. All the potentially compelling bits were ignored in favor of a budding romance.
This film works when it's at its most cartoonish, which, sadly, isn't often enough. If you were going to see this, nothing I say will change that. If you're on the fence, there are some giggles to be had. If you loathe Jim Carey, be wary. If you're looking for fully realized female characters…
Sorry! Not happening!

If you've walked around UWM's campus at all, odds are you've probably run into the Military and Veterans Resource Center, the LGBT Resource Center, or the Center for Community Based Learning, Leadership and Research. In the near future, however, there's a chance you won't see any more of these organizations, or any other centers like these at UWM.
This is due to a recent budget proposal for UW – Schools submitted by Governor Scott Walker last February. Along with cutting the rate of undergraduate student tuition by 5 percent, Walker is also allowing the opportunity for students to choose to opt-out of paying for allocable segregated fees.
There are two types of segregated fees that UWM students pay for each semester, these being non – allocable, and allocable. Allocable segregated fees are fees that students pay for specific programs, organizations, and opportunities at UWM. According to the Student Association at UWM segregated fees "improve student life," on campus. However, these fees are only paid by students who take credits directly on campus.
Student Association President Mike Sportiello is not in favor of Governor Walker's proposal. "There are better ways to save students money than to cut segregated fees," said Sportiello. "If students know they can opt out of segregated fees, I think the vast majority will. If we just become another school that serves to middle class to upper-class white people, then I think we lose a lot of what makes UWM most special."
Sportiello is talking about some of the Centers that are funded by allocable segregated fees, two of these being the MAVRC, and the LGBT Resource Center. These centers provide direct assistance to students considering that UWM educates more veterans than any other university in Wisconsin, and is also a 5-star campus on the LGBT-friendly Campus Climate Index.
Students currently pay $229 a semester in allocable fees, totaling over 10 million dollars per year. According to the UWM Bursar Office, this number is determined by both the Student Association, and in part by the Chancellor.
Chancellor Mark Mone sent out an email to all UWM students and faculty in response to Walker's budget proposal. In it he was critical of the Governor's proposal, saying that these allocable fees "go much further than to fund student activities, they contribute to create a safer, more complete learning environment for those that need it most."
However, Governor Walker's Deputy Communications Officer Thomas Evenson said in a statement "At a time when we want to make college more affordable, we should not be forcing all students to pay for things such as 'Sex Out Loud.'" Sex Out Loud is a UW – Madison program that received $103,398 in funding last year according to an article in the Wisconsin State Journal.
Governor Walker also said in a Press Release that he believes an opt – out system will help students decide what they do and do not want to pay for on campus. The Press Release also pointed out that allocable segregated fees do not go towards "long-term commitments, or ongoing operational costs of university owned and controlled buildings."
However, students may have more difficulty getting to campus if programs like UPASS and the BOSS shuttle service were cut.
The Women's Resource Center and the Center for Community Based Learning, Leadership and Research are also at risk. The Women's Resource Center provides support for both men and women on campus dealing with issues such as "stalking, sexual harassment, sexual assault and domestic violence." The CCBLLR also provides students with resources for work program opportunities, volunteering within the community of Milwaukee, and service learning initiatives.
Ben Trager, director of the CCBLLR said in an interview "The more involved you are, the more you know what's available at your fingertips." He also said, "UW-Milwaukee has a core commitment to graduating students who are dedicated to community engagement and leadership."
In an interview, Alex Walker, the Chairman of the Federation of College Republicans in Wisconsin, and the Governor's son, said that he agrees with the proposal. "All the organizations I run are self – sufficient," said Walker. He said that his organizations are self – sufficient through private contributions, fundraising and membership dues among other things.
UWM Centers on campus were not allowed to give a personal statement about how this might affect their organization, but Associate Vice Chancellor Jim Hill did say in a statement on the issue:
"If individual students had the opportunity to opt out of paying these fees, we would anticipate that the programs funded by those fees might no longer be sustainable, and this would amount to another significant cut to programs for students."
The proposed budget would go into effect at the beginning of the 2017-2018 academic year.

GHRSST Level 2P North Atlantic Regional Bulk Sea Surface Temperature from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on the NOAA-18 satellite produced by NEODAASEntry ID: NEODAAS-L2P-AVHRR18_L
Abstract: A Level 2P swath-based Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) dataset for the North Atlantic area from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on the NOAA-18 platform (launched on 20 May 2005). This particular dataset is produced by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Earth Observation Data Acquisition and Analysis Service (NEODAAS) in collaboration ... with the National Centre for Ocean Forecasting (NCOF) in the United Kingdom. The AVHRR is a space-borne scanning sensor on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) family of Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellites (POES) having a operational legacy that traces back to the Television Infrared Observation Satellite-N (TIROS-N) launched in 1978. AVHRR instruments measure the radiance of the Earth in 5 (or 6) relatively wide spectral bands. The first two are centered around the red (0.6 micrometer) and near-infrared (0.9 micrometer) regions, the third one is located around 3.5 micrometer, and the last two sample the emitted thermal radiation, around 11 and 12 micrometers, respectively. The legacy 5 band instrument is known as AVHRR/2 while the more recent version, the AVHRR/3 (first carried on the NOAA-15 platform), acquires data in a 6th channel located at 1.6 micrometer. Typically the 11 and 12 micron channels are used to derive sea surface temperature (SST) sometimes in combination with the 3.5 micron channel. The highest ground resolution that can be obtained from the current AVHRR instruments is 1.1 km at nadir. The NOAA platforms are sun synchronous generally viewing the same earth location twice a day or more (latitude dependent) due to the relatively large AVHRR swath of approximately 2400 km.
NEODAAS-Dundee acquires approximately 15 AVHRR direct broadcast High Resolution Picture Transmission (HRPT) passes per day over NW Europe and the Arctic. Each pass is approximately 15 minutes duration. These are immediately transferred to NEODAAS-Plymouth where they are processed into sea surface temperature (SST) products and converted to L2P specifications.

Just when we think we understand what it means to be a mom in 21st-century America, along comes a whole new category of motherhood that could send many of us into paroxysms of insecurity and inadequacy.
Forget soccer moms and stay-at-home moms and three-martini moms. The hip, new moniker for success as a parent puts mom squarely at the forefront of all things: She is alpha mom.
According to recent news accounts, alpha mom is the current label for America's high-tech, media-savvy, consumer-trendy mother. She wields a BlackBerry in one hand, an additional cell phone in the other, and when she's not sitting behind the wheel of her SUV (a Hummer fits the image nicely), she's parked in front of her laptop doing "consumer research" (aka shopping).
Not only does alpha mom control 85% of her family's household spending, she and her alpha cohorts represent $500 billion in total consumer spending.
$500 billion — that's a lot of Cheerios.
Of course, the reason alpha mom is so attractive to marketers isn't just the power she exerts over the purse strings in her own home but her willingness to spread the word about the very latest stuff she has purchased for her children and herself. She's a bona fide authority on everything cool. If alpha mom buys something, it's the thing to have.
Alpha mom is raising so-called alpha kids, the first ones on the block to see the latest movies, for example, and own the collateral products that support the debut of the film. (By now, the alpha kids on your block have seen Shrek the Third more than once and know all the songs from the movie because they already have loaded the tunes into their IPods, and they own the movie's spinoff game for Nintendo Wii).
Even the Joneses couldn't keep up with alpha mom. She's raised our standard for parenting to a corporate-level executive post.
Now, if you happen to be reading this while waiting for your laptop calendar to synchronize with your PDA, please forgive me. I'm not out to offend anyone.
But let me just say this about alpha moms: Oh, please.
First off, my own mother would tell you that "alpha" is just another word for "mom" anyway. Having access to digital technology does not make the mom. Having access to the words "yes" and "no" — this is the power that makes every mom the alpha human in her household.
Also, since when is it news that mothers control 85% of household spending? Even in our age of parental enlightenment, I don't see a whole lot of dads at the grocery store checkout counter or standing outside the fitting room at the Gap or killing time at the orthodontist's office while their children get rewired — all places that account for big chunks of household spending.
If the discovery that mothers are America's principal shoppers has only now created a marketing category for them, I have to wonder: Didn't any of the men who work in marketing ever notice while growing up that their moms bought everything in the house?
Someone probably paid good money for research to tell them what every woman in America could explain between trips to the megamall: Motherhood is high finance. (My husband would tell you the most expensive phrase I can utter is, "Guess how much I saved us today?" This doesn't mean I refrained from spending; it only means I shopped a sale.)
Perhaps what's new about the marketing analysis of mothers as spenders is the notion that spending is power, and therefore, alpha moms finally are being accorded their due respect.
Here's the really annoying part of the alpha mom phenomenon — her counterpart isn't beta mom — it's slacker mom.
Think about that for a minute — supposedly, if you're not running through the grocery store with a Bluetooth receiver in your ear, simultaneously buying organic snacks for your children as you schedule an appointment for your little darling with a private tennis coach, you're just not getting the job done.
I guess I'm a slacker, and that's all there is to it.
What irks me about the whole image of the alpha mom is that it has nothing to do with motherhood.
Motherhood is a powerful role; American marketers are right about that. But every mother is most powerful in moments that are completely free of charge, except for the expenditure of time, attention, insight and understanding that she brings to her unique and irreplaceable position.
American poet William Ross Wallace said it better more than 125 years ago in his classic poem:
All true trophies of the ages
Are from mother-love impearled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
OK, so Wallace couldn't envision a day when mom could wind up the cradle to rock itself while she folded a load of laundry, but his poem still speaks the truth. The power of a mother's love is something Madison Avenue isn't ever going to figure out how to exploit.
It has always been a hands-free, wireless and wonderful job, and thankfully, it's still entirely doable without a BlackBerry.

Until the courts rule otherwise, or the Parliament enacts legislation to the precisely prohibitive effect, the T&T Police reserve the right to come searching the newsrooms of the nation. Last Thursday's search-and-seize operations at Newsday confirmed that last December's lockdown of TV6 had been no aberration.
So far from the TV6 search having been a one-off exercise, the Newsday operation actually amounted to an escalation. Officers, not satisfied with searching the daily's newsroom and taking away computer equipment, moved to the home of a reporter, executing an identical mission.
In the event, T&T has somehow entered a dread new reality. Expectations must now be adjusted to reflect that media houses enjoy no status of sanctuary; and journalists working inside them can expect no benefit of exceptionalism from heavy-handed criminal crackdowns, even as they simply do their jobs.
What weight, in real, day-to-day terms, must now be given to the celebrated fundamental right of the freedom of the press? Until now, it had never been the case that media houses and media personnel could feel themselves directly threatened by coercive arms of the State.
That this could happen, and happen again, should dispose of notions of media entitlement to special� privilege. As noted by the Association of Caribbean Media Workers, the T&T media and T&T media people can take little comfort in expressions by the Prime Minister and other ministers, disassociating themselves from what happened at Newsday last week. It is indisputable that two life-changing events for the media occurred under their watch.
Sounds of outrage have come from both the government and the opposition. Still, the police are unlikely to feel deterred from future action trampling on now-inapplicable conventions by what amounts to just talk.
It is inconceivable that Senior Superintendent Solomon Koon Koon, who led the Newsday raid, had failed to calculate likely public reaction. �As he told an Express reporter: "There are people in this country who have a problem when the police don't do their work, and when the police do their work, there is a problem."
How the police define "their work", however, and the priorities they assign, are a big part of the problem. The conspicuous zeal displayed in searching newsrooms sharply contrasts with that shown in other investigations demonstrably going nowhere.
Again, while investigating allegedly unauthorised disclosures from inside the Integrity Commission, officers appear not to have searched the offices, homes and computers of commissioners and staff. Finally, as the virtual complainant in the investigations with such dire implications for the media, Integrity Commission chairman Ken Gordon, to save his own professional reputation, must now work with government and other legislators to ensure formulation and passage of clearly needed legislation: to protect whistleblowers; and to codify media rights.

Max Lucado invites you to examine the cross, contemplate its purpose, and celebrate its significance in He Chose the Nails. Go ahead and linger on the hill of Calvary. Rub a finger on the timber and press the nail into your hand. Taste the tinge of cheap wine and feel the scrape of a thorn on your brow. Touch the velvet dirt, moist with the blood of God. Allow the tools of torture to tell their story. Listen as they tell you why the hope of all humanity balances on the truth of the claims of the cross. See just how much God did to win your heart.

"Ben Holland is the perfect narrator for this book!"
YES! in fact i will listen to it over and over again depending on where i am with my "walk". If you want to be reminded just HOW MUCH God loves you and what Jesus did on cross...and how we are all just like one or more of the disciples who followed Jesus, listen to this book immediately.
at the end of the book, when Max says to take all your worries, fears, and look at the cross, feel the velvet red dirt that is stained with Christ's blood...i cried; very emotional.
I felt like he had a deep connection to the material himself.
Again, the ending.
"Great book! It's a must read."
Such a good book! It's very easy to understand and has such feeling of what Jesus did for us.
Loved it! So much unrealized meaning in Jesus and the cross. Jesus told me the reasons through Max Lucado
"Blessed "
I listened to this book as I worked last night.Our God is so Awesome! Thank you!
"Extraordinary Excellence"
I enjoyed hearing this inspiring book. The narrator performed with exceptional diction, pausing as needed. His voice was soothing. It has brought new insights to my thoughts!

Like most popular films in the age of the internet, Juno experienced a critical backlash after it reached Oscar-nominated heights back in 2008. For the record, I still enjoy that movie – Diablo Cody's hyperstylized dialogue and all.
In any case, Cody is reuniting with Juno director Jason Reitman for a new project, this one called Young Adult. Deadline reports Charlize Theron is set to star; hit the jump for the plot synopsis.
Theron plays a ghostwriter of young adult novels who plots to reclaim her identity. Her campaign involves going back and rekindling a relationship with her high school boyfriend — who's freshly married, is a new father, and wants no part of her. While she works on her plan, the ghostwriter reengages with high school acquaintances and their experiences in trying to fulfill all those high school hopes and dreams that often get crushed by the realities of life.
I'm calling it right now (although obviously this is speculation on my part): the high school boyfriend character will be played by Jason Bateman. Not only did Bateman have great chemistry with Charlize Theron in "Arrested Development" and the Will Smith superhero movie Hancock, he's also worked with director Jason Reitman on both Juno and Up in the Air. If I had to bet on any casting decision so far this year, this is the one I'd put my money on.
Mandate Pictures hopes to start rolling on November 10th of this year (strangely specific date, eh?), and the production team is aiming to film in New York. Let us know what you think of a Juno reunion in the comments section.

The clock is ticking on St. Armands Circle's parking woes.
Complaints about parking tickets mounted throughout the summer, but as peak season looms, merchants are worried that restrictions could cause them to lose business.
"It's become a tsunami of complaints, and it's a real problem," said Eric Seace, owner of Planet and president of the St. Armands Circle Association, at the Tuesday, Oct. 9, St. Armands Business Improvement District (BID) Board of Directors meeting.
At the center of concerns during Tuesday's meeting were enforcement hours, which increased to 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. six days a week from the previous 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday that was in effect until March, when the Sarasota City Commission voted to bag downtown Sarasota parking meters and make parking enforcement uniform throughout the city. The increase extends the three-hour limit on parking into evening hours, when many Circle patrons are having dinner.
Circle Association officials and BID directors said Tuesday that they've seen more tickets issued to vehicles that have been moved to another area to avoid the restrictions.
"We have now limited our shopping and dining to three hours on the Circle," Seace said.
Sarasota Parking Manager Mark Lyons, who was not present at Tuesday's BID meeting, told the Longboat Observer that drivers city-wide must move their cars by more than a block to comply with the city's parking ordinance.
On St. Armands, that means that drivers who parked directly on the Circle must move their cars at least a block away to a street such as Ben Franklin Drive or South Boulevard of the Presidents.
Circle merchants have said that they frequently hear from irate customers who have been ticketed. The merchants have asked for more flexibility in enforcement.
Circle Association Executive Director Diana Corrigan expressed a growing sense of urgency Tuesday.
"People are coming back, then you have Thanksgiving and Christmas," Corrigan said. "Right after that is season. We're running out of time."
Circle officials will discuss their concerns during a city Parking Advisory Committee meeting scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 24.
BID Chairman Marty Rappaport said that one set of rules doesn't work across the entire city.
Sarasota City Commissioner Terry Turner, who attended the meeting, suggested that those who are concerned make their case to the City Commission.
"You need to make the case that what works downtown doesn't work for you," he said.
Those in attendance at the BID meeting also had concerns about additional restrictions put in place around the residential area of Monroe Drive just south of the Circle's southwest quadrant.
Lyons, along with Mayor Suzanne Atwell, met with the Circle Association Board in August to address parking concerns. Later in August, the city added signage that warns motorists to park within designated spaces.
Lyons said that citations on the Circle decreased following the installation of warning signs.
But during the meeting, Corrigan discussed Lyons' figures, saying that mid-August "the faucet shuts off" on St. Armands Circle, meaning fewer cars to generate tickets.
But at least one of area of the Circle will soon get a break on time limitations.
The city will soon remove restrictions on the southern part of South Boulevard of the Presidents to increase parking availability for people who work on the Circle in preparation for season.
Amnesty extension
The city has increased its Parking Citation Amnesty program to encourage payment of parking citations at least 90 days past due. Through the end of the month, motorists who have an overdue citation will save $15 because the city will waive late fees. To pay, visit SarasotaPD.org.

"The latest LOVE is quick and clean, like a well-thumbed magazine"
Issue #9 (The Clean Issue), of LOVE magazine has a twelve page article previewing the upcoming V&A 'David Bowie is' exhibition.
The item has eight full-page photographs of some of the Bowie outfits that the V&A curators have selected for inclusion in the show.
Beautifully photographed by Craig McDean, the feature has an excellent accompanying text by Tim Blanks, who writes a 'highly personal meditation on the way the rock icon came to exercise such a decisive influence on fashion history'.
Pictured here is one such example, a costume designed by Willie Brown that Bowie wore for the 1979 'DJ' video.
The physical edition of LOVE is on the shelves on Monday and if you're not already acquainted with the magazine, this is the perfect opportunity to get familiar with it.
LOVE is a very stylish publication that looks great on iPad and that version is available now.
We'll leave you with a quotation from Gucci's Frida Giannini regarding our man, taken from Tim Blanks' article.
There are many looks that at one point or another have been my favourites. I think of him doing his make-up by himself in the mirror or cutting his own clothes and dressing himself. Each and every one of his appearances was a performance in and of itself.

Laverstoke Park Farm is an organic and biodynamic farm in Hampshire, England that produces a diverse array of food products. Noble Union is proud to bring their Organic Ale and Organic Lager to the U.S. Market.
Jody Scheckter, the 1979 Formula One World Champion started Laverstoke Park Farm to produce "the best tasting, healthiest food, without compromise" for himself and his family – a philosophy he applies across the entire farm, which is known as the "University of Organics."
"To achieve a healthy and natural environment, I believe there are two vital factors: firstly, biodiversity and secondly slow growing animals and plants. This begins with the soil," Jody explains. "We follow nature strictly, while utilizing the latest scientific research, techniques and equipment."
Farm to Bottle
The award winning Ale and Lager are made from organic barley and organic hops grown in the farm's chalky "terroir" soil.
The full flavor and unique aroma of these beers comes, quite literally, from the land.
Laverstoke's hop garden – currently 18 acres and growing – is diverse and rich. It's rows range from traditional English Fuggles, Boudicea and Cobb's Golding varieties to slower-growing heirloom varieties, including a couple first cultivated locally – in Hampshire in 1820. Noble hop varieties from central Europe such as Tettnang and Saaz round out the mix.
Real Ale and Real Lager
The Ale is bottle conditioned with live yeast, producing a flavorful and effervescent "real" ale without added carbon dioxide. The Lager recently won the British Bottlers Institute Gold Medal for the Best Organic Lager in the UK and the Ale has been selected by CAMRA – the Campaign for Real Ale. Both beers have also collectively won three Great Taste Awards in the UK.
Beyond Organic
Laverstoke Park Farm is certified organic and biodynamic, and its beer is certified USDA organic, but Mr. Scheckter and his team go much further. An on-site micro-biology lab continuously tests the soil. Specific compost preparations are added to the soil to ensure optimal proportions of beneficial bacteria and fungi. The result is an ideal environment for growing flavorful hops and barley.

The war against the periodic chart continues — now its bromine.
"The petition on Change.org noted that the ingredient, brominated vegetable oil, has been patented as a flame retardant and is banned in Japan and the European Union. It had more than 200,000 supporters Friday.
For Gatorade, Carter said the ingredient is used as an "emulsifier," meaning it distributes flavoring evenly so that it doesn't collect at the surface. She said it was used only in select varieties including orange and "citrus cooler." Other drinks that use brominated vegetable oil, or BVO, include Coca-Cola's Fanta and PepsiCo's Mountain Dew. A spokesman for competitor Dr Pepper Snapple Group was not available to comment on whether the ingredient is used in any of its drinks."

Bankrate.com: Moving Pro or No?
Courtesy Bankrate.com
By Julie Sturgeon
The world is divided into two groups: those who move themselves and those who hire professionals to handle it for them.
Put Tammy Lyn Phillips firmly on the "get a pro" side. She took this route for her first uprooting, but chose the do-it-yourself method the next few times to save money. But after she ruptured a disk using improper bending, lifting and carrying techniques — racking up at least $10,000 in recurring medical bills over the next three years — she wised up to a different definition of "expensive."
"If a professional incurs any unfortunate injuries, you're not held responsible. Plus you feel completely at ease overseeing and not pressured to physically assist, so you avoid hurting yourself," she says.
Still, in this age of cash allowances for moving expenses rather than an automatic company-covered perk, it's tempting to play the odds and pocket the extra bucks. It's rather like sitting on a pitchfork: either way you squirm, it hurts. Experts offer these points to help you decide which way to go:
Single people rarely accumulate enough stuff to make throwing it in a U-Haul an ordeal. "But the minute you get two people in a household and start adding children, the things really accumulate," says D'Arcy Goldman, president of Humboldt Storage and Moving Company in the Boston area.
By her guidelines, anyone living in a one-bedroom apartment not stuffed to the gills — meaning a basic bedroom set, closets that aren't spilling their contents onto the floor, no overly large furniture that needs to be shoved out a window because it won't fit through a door — could lean toward doing this themselves.
Professional organizer Maureen Gainer asks her clients to assess what their free time is worth before making the final decision. If the move is far enough in the future to allow you to pack a box or two each evening, go for it. However, when the maverick route costs you time off from work, the bargain begins to fade.
"If moving is stressing you out — perhaps you're doing it in less than a month or because your spouse is in the military you're handling the details alone — it might be time to get a mover," says Donna Kozik, co-author of "29 Days to a Smooth Move."
The younger you are, the more likely you have strapping, healthy friends to pitch in on moving day. Score one for going it alone. But when your support network begins to develop bad knees, tennis elbows and weak backs, professional movers look more attractive.
Remember, the farther you move, the more economical the professional angle becomes. That's because industry de-regulation back in the '80s ushered in an era of competitive discounts. And pros work in volume. Combining four families' goods into one truckload bound for Los Angeles means your share is proportionately lower than using an entire Budget truck to yourself. According to Goldman, it typically costs between $3,500 and $4,000 to take a one-bedroom apartment's worth of items from Boston to California; $1,000 to take it across town.
On the good side, if you're only moving across town, the items don't need to be packed as expertly to survive, Kozik says, so the do-it-yourself option isn't such a nightmare.
City dwellers will appreciate letting professional movers figure out where to park the moving truck on the street and secure potential permits they need for that space. When you have a private driveway, taking control of the wheel can make more sense. Just double check that the size vehicle you rent doesn't require a chauffeur's license or other permits to operate. According to Goldman, state transportation departments started cracking down on who can drive what since the Sept. 11 attacks.
Even the time of year can sway your decision. Kozik discovered through her myriad moves that June, July and August are harder to book with professional movers, thanks to high demand. Consequently, companies are less likely to negotiate on price in the summer than in January.
Taking both sides
Often, families opt to take the best of both worlds: Pack their items but hire the professionals to load and drive the truck. Goldman says this is a good way to save money, as long as you go into it with eyes wide open. Moving companies won't accept liability for any damages to items you packed, "short of us throwing the box and you can see the outside was visibly tampered with," she says.
And no matter which route you take, you won't escape all responsibility. The burden of making arrangements to relocate plants, animals, precious jewelry, stocks and bonds, collector coins and any hazardous materials is on you, says Goldman. Add pianos, antique furniture and pool tables to that list of specialty items the average mover won't touch, in Kozik's experience.
"In general, the more precious the item, the more susceptible it might be to damage when you move," she says. Whether that translates to pro or no is up to you.

On the ufolofy reply, I hate to burst your bubble. My buddy, who would actually know because his clearence is way higher than mine, says there are no ufos. We (the secret we who does not want anyone to know) know what they all are so they are not "unidentified". So is it a question of how high your clearence is before you know the truth or is it still a conspiracy?

Its difficult to get quality journalism from someone who wants to sell you something or wants to make friends.
Someone who has nothing to gain or loose is more likely to report reliable information.

You disagree with a conspiracy-theorist and he often assumes you are disagreeing because you havent read some book or website or are ignorant of some info. He imagines that you only watch CNN and believe everything the government says.
The "I have info and insights that the rest of the world does not have" or "I am one of the select people in the know about the secret machinations of the world" is like a mind-trap that makes it look like everyone except oneself is completely ignorant.
The psychology involved is pretty amazing to watch...
Those who conclude that I am a "disinfo agent" (Ive been called this many times on this site and sites like it) have bought into the conspiracy-theory-cult to an extent that they are no longer able to discern reality from irreality. While most think that this is "OK", its actually not OK. Approving of a culture that thinks mental illness is "OK" is an even more serious problem than the mental illness itself.

Everything to me feels like a reality. Until you receive another world view.

Government orders fleet of 170 Garda vehicles in wake of station closures
THE Government has moved to ease fears of a resource crisis in An Garda Siochana in the wake of station closures by ordering 170 vehicles for the force.
Justice Minister Alan Shatter has revealed that €3m will be spent on upgrading the fleet with new patrol cars, unmarked cars and vans to be on the road in December and January.
"This is a substantial investment in Garda transport, particularly at a time of severe budgetary constraints," he said.
"In this context, I am conscious of the need to support An Garda Siochana, to the greatest extent possible, in the vital work that they do and I am certain that the delivery and commissioning of 170 new vehicles will enhance the capacity of An Garda Siochana to provide an effective and efficient policing service to communities throughout the country."
Serious concerns have been raised by the Garda Representative Authority (GRA) over officers' ability to police following 39 station closures this year and more threatened for next year and possibly 2014.
The organisation, which represents 11,000 officers, said they were being further hampered in their jobs by a lack of patrol cars.
Fears were highlighted in one instance in Donegal when a woman whose house had been burgled collected a garda from a local station after reporting the crime because he did not have a patrol car to call out.
All the new motors will be supplied by Ford Ireland with the majority patrol vehicles but also a limited number of unmarked cars and vans included in the order.
Garda management will decide allocation of the vehicles.
The Department of Justice said that so far this year 42 new vehicles have been commissioned bringing to 212 the total number added to the force in 2012.
