Local Search Popularity Means Small Businesses Still Need SEO
50% of people who make local searches on a smartphone visit a store within a day.
50% of people who make local searches on a smartphone visit a store within a day.
Google's YouTube has acquired Directr, a startup aimed at helping small businesses create promotional videos.
Confused about Big Data? You're not the only one. For most small business owners, Big Data is one big mystery. And if you don't understand Big Data, you probably also have no clue how this type of intelligence gathering works or how to start extracting valuable information from data sources you already have — which means your business is missing out on big opportunities.
Square on Tuesday will start letting business owners get some market research and PR on the cheap. The company is introducing Square Feedback, a feature on its receipts that asks consumers "How was your experience?" Feedback also prompts those customers to give details and start a conversation with the business. Square will charge $10 per month for the feature, though the first 30 days are free.
Facebook hit all the right numbers during its most recent earnings call last month. Revenue was up. Profit was higher than any quarter in company history. And user totals were up in almost every category imaginable, including monthly actives, daily actives and mobile.
Whether it's a restaurant, shopping mall, museum or even the hot dog stand down the street, you can find reviews for almost anything on Yelp. Yet there are still many small businesses that are not taking advantage of the online review site.
What can Brown do for you? If you work for a startup, own a small business or are an entrepreneur, the UPS Store is about to roll out a new service that could radically change the way you use the package-delivery company: 3D printing on site. The service will first roll out to its San Diego-area locations. UPS says it's offering 3D printing so companies can quickly and inexpensively create models and prototypes of items they plan to produce.
In May, Mashable taught you how to make Social Media Day official in your city, and we're continuing to see more cities join in on the global movement. Just across the San Francisco Bay and the madness of Silicon Valley, it was Social Media Day in Oakland, Calif. on Wednesday. A crowd large enough to fill most of the seats in Oakland's City Hall Council Chambers gathered to learn how to best use social media for small businesses.
Twitter will give Chase's 4 million small business customers $1 million in free advertising on the platform, the companies announced on Monday. The two were short on details about the program, which will award the free advertising in $100 increments. Twitter and Chase are expected to release more details about the program in the fall.
Facebook's Graph Search isn't just for looking up your old buddies and potential new friends, it's also designed for Business Pages.
This holiday season, support small business and buy your gifts in their online shops. Here are three places to start.
Twitter is offering as much as $1 million in free ad credits in total to 10,000 businesses to support Small Business Saturday this weekend.
Small business owner Teri Noboa sold with Amazon for a short time in order to bring exposure to her shop, Childhood Way Boutique, a clothing store for kids with holiday fashions and gifts for baby showers. But that decision came with an unexpected price tag. Two years after moving her shop to its own website, an empty Amazon storefront still cuts into her sales.
Long hours and hectic schedules are integral components of startup culture. Along with the fun perks, office pups and ubiquitous passion, startups are also known for countless team meetings, working lunches and out-of-office events. Forgetting an obligation with a client or partner could be disastrous for a business (not to mention, embarrassing). That's why small businesses and startups should embrace open calendars.
Yelp just gave small business owners another way to market to customers on the site. Small businesses can now sell gift certificates directly from their profile pages on Yelp. The option, which was tested out briefly earlier this year, was announced Wednesday in a blog post.
Young job seekers today would rather work for startups than big corporate companies, a new study suggests. The study was conducted by software provider PayScale, Inc. and research management firm Millennial Branding. It found that millennials -- also known as Gen Y, a group currently between the ages of 18 and 29 -- are more drawn to smaller companies that offer flexibility, embrace the entrepreneurial spirit and don't restrict social media use.
Amazon on Tuesday rolled out Glacier, a cloud service that charges as little as $0.01 per month per gigabyte for storage. The company is able to achieve the low costs by optimizing the service for data that is infrequently accessed and for which retrieval times of several hours are acceptable. The price compares to the roughly $0.10 per GB and $0.12 per GB that Google and Amazon are charging, respectively.
It's not enough to make an app free. These days, you have to throw in a free tablet as well. At least that's the approach that GoPago, a San Francisco startup is taking. The company is offering merchants a free Android-based Motorola Xyboard 10.1 tablet (a $500 value) if they use its app. The tablets arrive fully loaded with GoPago's LIVE mobile payment software. A Verizon 4G connection is also free thanks to a deal between GoPago and the carrier.
Swooping in after a developer's anti-Facebook rant made the rounds, Google's Vic Gundotra has posted a message to other developers: "I'm not interested in screwing over developers." Gundotra, the company's VP of engineering (pictured), prefaced his post by explaining why Google hasn't yet released its full write API for Google+. "I get a lot of heat for not releasing a full write API for Google+.
In a nice counter argument to startup Limited Run's claim that 80% of the clicks on its ads were bots, an entrepreneur has stepped up to provide a real-life example in which he made $8,000 in one day via Facebook ads. The entrepreneur, Brendan Irvine-Broque, is the director of growth for PageLever. In a post on his personal blog that made Hacker News, Irvine-Broque claims he made $10,000 on Saturday, May 12, after holding an event in his backyard in which he sold 6,000 vinyl records for $3 each.
Taking time off is critical to refresh and recharge yourself. However, when it comes to vacation time, considerations are quite different for those who are self-employed versus company employees with paid vacation time. For starters, when you're self-employed, you're typically paid based on your productivity. Taking one week off means no pay check. That cost needs to be factored into any vacation budget.
The emergence of the $20 billion mobile applications market is not only revolutionizing the software industry, it's also having a profound impact on the national economy as well, a new study found. With smartphones and tablets providing new platforms for software developers, an entire new class of software entrepreneurs has emerged. And the majority of these new players are small businesses. In fact, 78% of U.S.
People looking for a job may get some welcome news in the second half of 2012. Private-sector employers said they were planning on increasing hiring in the latter half of this year compared with the same time last year, according to a new study. Overall, 44% of employers are planning on adding full-time employees between July 1 and Dec. 31, up from 35% in 2011. Twenty-one percent said they would be adding part-time and temporary employees in the second half of 2012.
PadMapper, a popular apartment-finding platform that shows available pads for rent via Google Maps, is no longer aggregating data from Craiglist after receiving a cease-and-desist letter from that company's legal team. "It's with a heavy heart that I must announce that PadMapper is no longer including Craigslist rental listings -– they're currently being wiped from the search index," reads a blog post from PadMapper's CEO Eric DeMenthon.

Patti Smith & Bob Dylan
Patti Smith & Bob Dylan
San Fransisco, 1965.
"Once when I was visiting Allen in his apartment he asked me if I would like some coffee. Having said "Yes," he presented me with a metal bowl with coffee in it. The bowl seemed strange (like a dog dish) and I nursed the coffee to cool it down. Soon he started asking "Are you finished with that, man?" I would say "No, not yet" and after awhile I started to feel uncomfortable because the bowl seemed important to him. When I finally said "Yes," he grabbed the bowl away — threw the remaining coffee in the sink and sat down with the bowl for his breakfast cereal. I was using his only bowl." - Keenan

Everywhere I go is beauty,
trees illuminated
street lights glowing in the darkness
I want to run up to strangers and kiss them
but there is too much noise
men kill each other
I'm sick and tired of seeing sad faces
stop that bastard machine
everyone is God and Holy
a spike is ripping at my throat
I smell a fragrance of a rose
everywhere I go is beauty

The section on expanding government funding for pre-K schooling programs around the country took up only a few minutes of President Obama's State of the Union address, but is heavily emphasized by the White House. While "universal pre-K" makes for good rhetoric, actual implementation of the policy makes all the difference in the world - and there's good reason to question the efficacy of such programs.
"Tonight, I propose working with states to make high-quality preschool available to every child in America," Obama said. "In states that make it a priority to educate our youngest children, like Georgia or Oklahoma,...

More By-election candidate news.
Already tweeted, but for those of you not on Twitter, a few notes from the campaign trail.
* Durham, ON – Former MPP and Brock Township mayor Larry O'Connor announced earlier today on Twitter that he would be running for the NDP nomination in that riding. I don't have it confirmed, but am hearing that October 30 is the likely date. If O'Connor is uncontested, he would join Conservative Erin O'Toole, Liberal Grant Humes, and a Green to be named later.
* Calgary Centre, AB – One of the candidates for the NDP nomination, social media consultant Scott Payne, announced late last night on Facebook that given an imminent announcement by another "stronger and compelling" candidate, he was withdrawing from the race. New Democrats will meet there on October 27 to pick from amongst the two remaining and one emerging nomination contestants. The winner will join Conservative candidate Joan Crockatt, Green candidate Chris Turner, and Liberal standard-bearer Harvey Locke.
* Victoria, BC – Local sources report the registration of a domain-name for Dale Gann that redirects to the Conservative Party's candidate website platform. It thus appears that the Vancouver Island Technology Park president Is probably the only vetted candidate, and will be acclaimed at their meeting, reported to be scheduled for this Saturday. Gann's nomination would round out the slate of candidates for the by-election in that riding, including Green Donald Galloway, Liberal Paul Summerville, and New Democrat Murray Rankin.

How's This For Space? Lyrics - The Pink Spiders
She whispers like a megaphone
Its less than subtle and not quite love
Cause I can never be alone
I asked for space and then she grabbed my shirt and held me from the window
Hey hows this for space?
So cut the signal if it still feeds back
Its not an order its a heart attack
As memories of your playground love are catching up to you but these battles need not swords
This open journals empty rhetoric so par for the course
A target audience to snuggle with no guilt or remorse
You point and click and keep your distance
Its the digital age up close in person
Is old fashioned zero one is the rage
The wireless age has got its people on leashes

Wood Shiva Marriage Panel 43" Item # 52w152
Price: $225
Please take a minute and click here to tell us about your experience with Lotus Sculpture, our customer service and how you like your statue. We appreciate your feedback!
I have made significant purchases from Lotus Sculpture over the past seven years. What I like the most is the outstanding quality of products and service. I have experienced over this periodof time that all of the vigrahams I received from you have been done with much devotion and they have life embedded within them. Thank you!Reviewer:Kumar Ramachandran (Tulsa, Oklahoma, US)
This was a wonderful experience overall. Kyle's personal emails kept me up to date on everything that was happening with the sculpture. He worked to find the cheapest shipping option possible (since the statue weighed over 100 pounds and I live on the other side of the country) and it still arrived within a few days. As for the statue, it's absolutely beautiful. You can tell it's of a very high quality and will last a long, long time. I gave it to someone as a special gift and she loves it. I highly recommend Lotus Sculpture to anybody looking for quality Buddhist and Hindu statues. I hope to return in the future!Reviewer:David Schmid (Jericho, NY, US)
the ordering was easy, the shipment was on time and very well packaged. the statue was just what I thought it would look like very satisfied. Thank you very much LotusReviewer:Rob Hebert (Covington, Louisiana, US)
My order was sent quickly and packed nicely. Service was great and I am happy with the service.Reviewer:Sistla Krishna (Houston, Texas, US)
When I ordered my Ganesha statue, I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly but BOOM, there he was on my porch in less than a week! It was packed meticulously and with the love that it deserved. He is sitting proudly in my living room now and I couldn't be happier. Thank you!Reviewer:Monica (Kalamazoo, Michigan, US)
Buddha as presented. Packed well. Shipped quickly. How could I not be pleased? We are most happy with this purchase!Reviewer:L. Mattas (Hidden Valley Lake, California, US)
thanks for all. I apreciate your fast serviceReviewer:yolanda (aventura, florida, US)
I cannot say enough positive about my experience in working with Kyle at Lotus Sculpture. I made a purchase of a beautiful Buddha, and it was damaged during shipping. Kyle was so positive and supportive, professional and personable: as unhappy as I am over loosing the beautiful Buddha I had chosen, Kyle worked with me to find another. I am very delighted with my Buddha; the new one has arrived safetly and is even more amazing than Kyle could describe. Every time I have ever contacted Kyle with any question, he has been very quick to respond, and given me good information. My overall experience with Kyle and Lotus Sculpture has been very positive, and I am looking forward to future satisfying events. Thank you, Des.Reviewer:Ava Desiree Hutsell (Warwick, RI, US)
Buying these Ganeshas were a dream of mine for so long and I'm glad I did. Kyle was absolutely wonderful to deal and my Ganeshas came rather quickly and beautifully packaged. They are treasures on my altar and already I'm thinking of my next purchase. Thank you Lotus Sculpture for your wonderful service.Reviewer:Aman Pillay (Auckland, Auckland, NZ)
- Materials: Hand Carved & Painted Mango Tree Wood from Tamil Nadu, India
- Total Height Including Base: 12 inches
- Base Width & Depth: 43 x 2 inches
- Weight: 15 pounds
- This wood panel captures Shiva and Parvati in their marriage accompanied by Vishnu, Ganesh, Murugan and other attendants
- There are diamond shaped designs surrounding the entire panel
- The panel is hand carved by the artists of South India
- The panel ships the same day from our California showroom
This panel captures Shiva in his marriage to Parvati known as the Meenakshi Kalyam. It has two hangers in which to hang the panel from a wall. This piece is considered to be a more tribal village carving as it lacks the detail of a temple piece.
About Shiva
Wood statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. All the wood used by Lotus Sculpure's artists is dried out for months. Moisture causes cracks in the sculpture as the wood contracts and expands in different temperatures. Our wood has little to no moisture in it assuring that the sculpture is not going to crack in its journey into different climates. Here are some simple tips to keep your statue in good condition:
- Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
- To make the statue shine use a natural wood cleaner and a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture
We recommend keeping wooden statues in an indoor environment. Wood statues can go outside however, they will wear more quickly and develop an antique appearance. If you would like to put a wood statue from Lotus Sculpture outside and keep the same appearance of the sculpture we would recommend first coating the statue with a couple of layers of sealant or polyurethane. We would then recommend placing the statue in a partially covered area. The more exposure to the elements the more the statue will wear over time. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions regarding your wooden statue from Lotus Sculpture, (760) 994-4455 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
USA Shipping
This sculpture is in our Oceanside, California store and ready for immediate shipping. The shipping charge is automatically calculated by UPS for shipping within the United States. Each sculpture is usually shipped within 24 hours of the order with the exception of the weekend. To obtain a shipping quote simply add the statue you are interested in to your shopping cart and then select click on the "Calculate Domestic Shipping" button.

Though he barely rises above a whisper, on Life After Defo, Daniel Woolhouse makes a grandiose statement. With his debut album as Deptford Goth, Woolhouse explores togetherness and isolation while asking the listener to connect with the music, themselves, and the world around them on a profound level. From the awkward moniker he's chosen for himself to the use of the word "defo" (short for "definitely") in the album's title to even the cover artwork, the project seems easy to dismiss – to do so is to ignore a touching, revelatory musical experience.
At its core a post-breakup album, Life After Defo captures the numbness of heartbreak. In a sense it's an album of contradictions, with Woolhouse's cold, vague lyrics providing comfort more than anything else. And perhaps there lies the album's true strength: through overarching general statements, the songs on Defo provide the framework for the listener to fill in the details. By avoiding specifics, the record becomes not only instantly relatable, but also fitting for a wide spectrum of moods. Life After Defo is an album about heartbreak, yes, but it's also an album about love; it's an album about having lost love, but also a reminder that having found it is always better than not – "better to have been with than live without it"; it's an album about picking up the pieces of a fragmented soul, and an album that teaches that soul to put themselves back together. And as much as it's an album about being alone, it's also an album about embracing our collectiveness, and the experiences that unite us as a way of moving forward – "I belong with everyone, everyone I've ever known is here, with me".
Sonically the record is nothing more than "a few guitars, a couple of synths, a piano, various USB controllers, [and a] a laptop" as well as Woolhouse's hushed vocal, but it all adds up to more than the sum of its parts. The textural backdrops he creates serve to exemplify the stages of heartbreak. The pounding drums on the opening title track feels like a slowing heartbeat at the moment of the breakup. "Bronze Age" is built on a moaning vocal loop, the aching evident. On standout "Guts No Glory", he sings "want somebody, hold on / want somebody, better hold on to you tight", as a pair of guitars pierce through the mix, as if offering a lifeline; the jittery drum beat on "Particles" provides the first signs of relief, of growth. The album's sonic centerpiece and most euphoric moment is "Union", representative of the moment the world starts opening up. Closing track "Bloody Lip" serves as the culmination, with a slow-building, soaring piano and a chant of "there has never been and there will never be". Exactly what that is Woolhouse never says, but it's up to us to fill in the gaps with our story.

From 2D to 3D. My version of Cruella Deville
This is my eveningwear dress that I have been working on for school. It was inspired by winter and snow, and I designed it for a collection I called "Subtle Regality" which plays off of the intricacy of winter up close, but the clean washed out look of it from afar. It is a full length sequined dress, and it took me just about forever to sew.
Have been sketching out a cruella deville themed collection. Kind of want to look like her.
So I've decided to start growing an Avocado tree, I basically decided because the pit has already started to split inside the avocado that I bought - probably due to the fact that I let it sit in my fridge for over a week. It's really coming along well, the brown shell has started to split so that mean that it will probably be sprouting soon, can't wait to see it take form!!
Avacado pit is starting to split!! Hopefully soon a root will sprout from the bottom and I'll be able to plant it!
This is the coat I designed this semester. Each semester I work in a group of three or more girls and we design one outfit each. This semester the focus was on outerwear so we only made one garment each. Our collection was named 'Eclectic Treasures' based on the different themes we each took inspiration from. I gained inspiration from extreme features and angles on buildings I saw in New York and mixed that influence with romantic details. I used fake leather, felted wool, and metal buttons with an antique look to them that I felt would complete the design.
Never Stop Creating
Never Stop Creating
obviously not made by me, but it is something that I live by.
Photo of the costume I made for halloween being modeled. I was inspired by Columbia from the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Even though it's a gold tuxedo jacket, it's actually very versatile inthat I've used it and volunteered it for a multitude of things
Title Page of my design journal from a couple years ago. To be honest, even though it's just a collage it's one of my favourite things I've done.
Felted 1920's inspired hat. It was a school project for my styles history class. I chose to make a hat the proper way, and made the felt myself and draped it over the form till I got the shape I wanted, and starched it for stiffness, did the same things to make the band, and then I hand stitches the pieces together.

SAN JOSE, CA and SUNNYVALE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/24/13 -- Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) and NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) today announced an expanded partnership to deliver new converged infrastructure innovation to unify branch office, data center and public cloud infrastructures under the FlexPod architecture. The partnership expansion includes efforts in technology integration, solution development, and continued go-to-market collaboration -- all designed to make it easier for customers to deploy and access next-generation cloud infrastructure solutions.
Current IT architectures comprise a fragmented combination of infrastructure along with public, private and hybrid clouds offered by different organizations and addressing distinct customer needs. Through a shared vision of a unified data center, Cisco and NetApp offer the ability to simplify deployment, management and orchestration -- connecting enterprise clouds to service providers, enterprises to branch offices, consumers to enterprises, and clouds to clouds.
Deeper integration across computing, networking, storage and orchestration components of FlexPod, combined with broader support for its open ecosystem of partners, will greatly simplify data center deployment and management, deliver greater budget efficiency, reduce risk, and increase agile business responsiveness.
Cisco and NetApp now boast more than 2,100 FlexPod customers across more than 35 countries and over 700 channel partners. Cisco and NetApp are building on this momentum by expanding their successful decade-long partnership to deliver greater innovation, including:
- Deeper FlexPod Architecture Integration: Cisco and NetApp are forging deeper integration across Cisco® Unified Data Center solutions, NetApp FAS Storage Systems, and FlexPod ecosystem technology partners to create a common foundation for data centers and service providers, from branch office implementations to cloud-scale, multi-data center deployments.
FlexPod solutions will provide the ability to manage up to 10,000 servers, allowing organizations to aggregate several FlexPod racks and enable multihop Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCOE). These solutions, tuned for service providers and distributed enterprises, enable infrastructures to be scaled with predictive performance and support.
FlexPod continues to lead on the integration of infrastructure management tools and will support Cisco UCS® Manager 2.1, UCS Central and Cisco's recently acquired Cloupia products. In addition, support for Cisco Intelligent Automation for Cloud (Cisco IAC) allows cloud management solutions for FlexPod customers. Deeper integration across FlexPod at the platform level, as opposed to at the component level, will enable FlexPod to be seamlessly orchestrated by partner solutions, including Microsoft System Center and Citrix CloudPlatform powered by Apache CloudStack.
Cisco and NetApp will also integrate Flash technologies at the host and storage levels, to accelerate performance across all areas of the converged infrastructure. At the server level, applications running on Flash-optimized Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco UCS) servers can be further accelerated with NetApp Flash Accel, while at the controller and array levels, technologies such as NetApp Flash Cache and Flash Pools can be used to access cached data faster.
- FlexPod for Cloud Service Providers: To accelerate momentum in the service provider market Cisco and NetApp are developing flexible, massively scalable FlexPod solutions capable of handling multi-data-center service provider architectures. The set of solutions will bring together NetApp Clustered ONTAP and NetApp FAS storage systems with Cisco UCS servers and Cisco Nexus® 7000 Series Switches to create dynamically provisioned pools of server, storage and network resources that can be scaled up and scaled down by service providers depending on application requirements. These solutions will use Cisco's Virtualized Multiservice Data Center (VMDC) architecture and will include management and orchestration solutions from Cisco and from ecosystem partners such as BMC Software and, in the future, from open source providers.
- Branch Office Solution: Cisco and NetApp are partnering to extend the capabilities of ExpressPod to meet the compute, network and storage needs of branch offices. ExpressPod shares a similar converged infrastructure approach as FlexPod, and as a result, it is ideally suited to branch office deployments with an easy upgrade path to FlexPod as the needs of the branch grow. This easy-to-deploy architecture can be configured to offer greater interoperability with the core organizational data center, enabling branch locations to take advantage of some of the biggest cost-saving trends in IT, such as virtualization and cloud computing. ExpressPod includes support for VMware vSphere® and will soon include support for Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V.
- FlexPod Application Validation: Cisco and NetApp are expanding solution coverage to add more mission-critical applications and private cloud solutions for the datacenter. Mission critical solutions include Oracle Database and applications, SAP® BusinessObjects business intelligence and the SAP HANA® platform, and private cloud offerings include Microsoft private cloud and Citrix CloudPlatform.
Supporting Quotes:
Padmasree Warrior, chief technology and strategy officer, Cisco
"The past 10 years of partnering with NetApp have proven to be successful in bringing a Cisco validated, FlexPod architecture to our customers. Building on that success, we're now expanding our partnership to deliver deeper technology integration and broader solution development across the unified data center for an open, scalable, multicloud infrastructure. Together we can help our customers use their current data center investment to address the challenges of a mobile-cloud era."
Manish Goel, executive vice president, Product Operations, NetApp
"NetApp and Cisco share a common vision for the future of the data center and will continue to collaborate on innovations that connect organizations under a holistic cloud architecture. Our development, sales, and channel teams will work even closer to deliver new solutions that broaden the market opportunities for both companies and our partners, and help customers gain a competitive advantage from their flexible and efficient agile data center infrastructure."
Simon Aspinall, chief of global markets, Virtustream
"With the FlexPod solution from Cisco and NetApp, we can deploy private and public cloud solutions tailored to our enterprise customers' individual requirements for mission-critical applications. The ability with FlexPod to dynamically integrate compute, memory, network and storage is unique in the market, giving our cloud and IaaS solutions a clear advantage."

The IoT has an environmental impact as well, which brings us to the theme of this month's #IoTuesday Twitter chat. The ability to remove inefficiencies through connected objects is driving change throughout every sector, including waste management. BigBelly Solar, located just outside of Boston, is trans...

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Hunter, Chief Scientist & Technology Evangelist at Greenwave Systems, will examine three key elements that together will drive mass adoption of the IoT before the end of 2015. The first element is the recent advent of robust open source protocols (like AllJoyn and WebRTC) that facilitate M2M communication. The second is broad availability of flexible, cost-effective storage designed to handle the massive surge in back-end data in a world where timely analytics...

From a software development perspective IoT is about programming "things," about connecting them with each other or integrating them with existing applications. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Yakov Fain, co-founder of Farata Systems and SuranceBay, will show you how small IoT-enabled devices from multiple manufacturers can be integrated into the workflow of an enterprise application. This is a practical demo of building a framework and components in HTML/Java/Mobile technologies to serve as a platform that can integrate new devices as they become available on the market.

It's been quite some time since I published my own mix. I actually compiled this selection of favorite tracks back in January, and let it marinate while other selectors stepped up to the plate. For this 90th mix on Headphone Commute, I'll let it slowly ooze out of your speakers and drape your ears with darkness and cold. The theme on this mix explores dark ambient techno, hauntology, and experimental beats, alternating between banging rhythms and noisy drones, with a touch of speech for a good measure. It's a trip and a half.
When selecting the tracks for the mix, I tried to stay pretty current, with most pieces being released in 2011, and a few nose dives into 2003 for an audible contrast. I also picked a handful of techno artists exploring ambient territories, as well as ambient artists exploring the beats. There are more than a few sonic surprises in here. So be sure to buckle up and enjoy responsibly.
bigger compliment not possible,not by me )
everybody can fave and follow
don't give credits 4 doing nothing please
it takes away credit to those ones who really listened
invested time and energy in your mix
blood 4 blood
sacrifice 4 sacrifice
an eye 4 an eye
lolll a tooth 4 a tooth,..
this a massive difference which i am trying to get thru
peoples heads for years
still struggling as you can see how complicated the materie obviously is while it's as simple as 1+__+1 = 2

The electronic dance music scene, like so many American cultural phenomenons, enjoys regurgitating and then swallowing itself with the belief that it's fresh and new. This is amusing to watch, but can also be depressing. I try not to pay too close attention, but there are always a few nuggets that are tasty. …Gavin Hardkiss Talks "Getting Down With Your Mother-Funkin' Self" on the Dance Floor, via the Miami New Times .

On Meet the Press, Tim Russert cited a flawed AP article, which omitted key facts that undermined its suggested connection between Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid and disgraced former lobbyist Jack Abramoff, in order to link Reid to "money from Jack Abramoff."
A Washington Post article on the ethics-reform bill passed by the House of Representatives buried a crucial fact: The bill had provoked widespread criticism from Democrats and government watchdog groups. In addition, the article noted that eight Democrats crossed party lines and voted for the bill, but did not similarly note that more than twice as many Republicans crossed party lines to vote against it. Other major print outlets similarly omitted crucial context regarding the House bill.
NPR's Andrea Seabrook reported that one of Democrats' "big problems right now" is "convincing voters that the so-called 'culture of corruption' is a Republican thing." According to Seabrook, "there's a growing list of ethics allegations against Democrats in Congress," and as examples, she noted: "Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid [D-NV], Michigan Senator Debbie Stabenow, and others took campaign contributions from Indian tribes that were associated with [disgraced former lobbyist] Jack Abramoff." In fact, neither Reid nor Stabenow are facing allegations of ethical misconduct regarding Abramoff contributions, and the mere receipt of contributions from Abramoff clients is not an indication of corruption.
Major media outlets have largely ignored reports by The Boston Globe's Charles Savage documenting President Bush's apparent willingness to disregard congressional authority through the use of "signing statements" asserting "that he has the power to set aside any statute passed by Congress when it conflicts with his interpretation of the Constitution." The media have also ignored the response by Democrats to Savage's reports.
On The O'Reilly Factor, nationally syndicated radio host Laura Ingraham claimed the "supposed mainstream media" are "making the same bet that [Sen.] Ted Kennedy [D-MA] is making" by supporting a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants. Ingraham maintained that just as Kennedy supports granting a path to citizenship because it will "redound to the Democrats' benefit," presumably through votes, the media -- which she claimed "tilts to the left" -- support citizenship because it will bring "new viewers, new listeners, new customers to the more liberal viewpoint" to which the media purportedly cater.
Loading the player leg...
On the same edition of his radio show in which he misidentified the energy secretary, Bill O'Reilly proposed a "bill" to deport to Canada "high school kids in this country [who] couldn't pass a civics test," because they "don't know what the House of Representatives is; they don't know what the judicial branch is."
CNN's Dana Bash falsely claimed that a controversial provision inserted into an emergency spending bill by Mississippi Republican Sens. Trent Lott and Thad Cochran would fund a rail line that Lott and Cochran "want to be built." In fact, the $700 million appropriation would fund the senators' efforts to move the existing CSX freight line despite the fact that, following Hurricane Katrina, CSX rebuilt the line at a cost of between $250 million and $300 million.
An April 19 New York Times article and an April 19 Associated Press article noted that the federally chartered home mortgage company known as Freddie Mac had agreed to pay a record $3.8 million to the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to settle allegations that it violated federal election law by using company resources to host fundraisers for members of Congress, illegally funneling employee contributions to federal candidates, and making an illegal $150,000 contribution to the Republican Governors Association. But the articles did not disclose that the vast majority of the the illegal fundraisers hosted by Freddie Mac benefited Republican lawmakers.
On C-SPAN's Q&A, Washington Post staff writer Susan Schmidt -- one of three Post reporters to be awarded a 2006 Pulitzer Prize for investigating the influence-peddling schemes of Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff -- repeated the false claim that Abramoff gave "a lot of money to Democrats." In fact, as Media Matters has noted repeatedly, no Democrats received contributions from Abramoff directly.
Fred Barnes claimed that "only the press" refers to former Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX) as "the Hammer." But The New York Times reported that a tribute dinner held by DeLay supporters in Washington, D.C., in May 2005 included numerous references to DeLay's nickname: "Mr. DeLay was served a red-white-and-blue cake festooned with sparklers and plastic hammers -- a reference to his nickname, the Hammer -- while the band played 'If I Had a Hammer.' "
Fox News host Neil Cavuto interviewed Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX) only two days after DeLay announced his intention to resign his congressional seat. But during the entire interview, Cavuto asked DeLay nothing about why he abandoned his re-election bid after winning a contentious primary or why he decided to leave office altogether, even though Cavuto claimed he "can't believe" that he had done so. Neither did Cavuto once mention DeLay's alleged ties to Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff or the guilty pleas of two of his former top aides, Michael Scanlon and Tony C. Rudy, for conspiring with Abramoff.
On MSNBC's Hardball, Chris Matthews once again suggested Democrats would abuse the congressional subpoena authority if they regain control of one or both houses of Congress in the 2006 elections. In a conversation with former Rep. Vin Weber (R-MN), Matthews asserted that in 2006, Republicans will likely campaign on the claim that if elected, Democrats "are going to try to lynch the president."
The USA Today described the House ethics committee as being "gridlocked since January 2005 because of partisan disputes over its rules, staff and procedures." At that time, House Republicans weakened the ethics committee by granting either party complete power to block a complaint against a fellow party member.
In articles about the immigration reform debate on Capitol Hill, The New York Times and the Associated Press presented two Senate immigration reform proposals -- a comprehensive bipartisan bill and a compromise measure recently put forth by Republicans -- as the full scope of the current debate on the issue in Congress. But the Times and the AP ignored entirely the more severe reform proposal the House passed in December 2005.
An April 5 Washington Post editorial asserted that Rep. Tom DeLay's (R-TX) departure from Congress will make it "much tougher for Democrats to flog their 'culture of corruption' message," offering only a quote from DeLay in support of the assertion -- but a Post article published the same day quoted a Democratic leader saying the opposite. The editorial then went on to undermine its own argument by noting that the political culture fostered by DeLay -- rather than the man himself -- represented the Republicans' "real problem."

quote:Those are interesting links but we have moved on in the UK and we now have chip and pin which the banks believe to be foolproof, so in most cases of fraud using C/P they refuse to pay as they assert the customer must have been negligent and disclosed the pin.
quote:Originally posted by Kim:[QUOTE] I do see a comment in the APACS guidelines about using your card responsibly but that seems like a general catch-all and if every individual had to prove that, well, it seems no one could ever prove that they should be re-imbursed.Hmm...and on Capitol One's UK site, they talk about fraud prevention and coverage but again, I see nothing about not covering specific fraudulent transactions maybe they have that in the fine print somewhere but it could be worth a call for you, since there guidelines for covering fraud seem more inline with US banks.
quote:but take personal responsibility for their choices.
quote:Originally posted by poet123:With regard to taking personal responsibilty...my experience is it is common to want to blame someone else if you are the victim of fraud, rather than maybe looking at whether your own actions could have invited it.

quote: It has become increasingly difficult to reclaim money from the banks in the UK because they consider chip and pin to be foolproof, and that anyone who accesses your account this way had inside knowledge.
quote: With regard to taking personal responsibilty...my experience is it is common to want to blame someone else if you are the victim of fraud, rather than maybe looking at whether your own actions could have invited it.
quote: The banks contend that if a sale goes through using a chip and pin card then you must have either used it yourself,or given someone else the pin, or written it down or compromised security some other way (by email for example!)
