A recent Nerdwallet study showed that in 2008, the cost of living surpassed the median household income, and the average cost of living continues to exceed that of average incomes.
Former Trader Joe's executive Doug Rauch understands this, and what sets him apart is that he's doing something to help.
A new kind of grocery store
In June of 2015, Rauch started Daily Table, a non-profit grocery store that keeps costs low by collecting and selling food that other stores are planning to toss. The first location was opened in Dorchester, near Boston, Massachusetts, with plans to expand across the country.
According to its website, the store offers "'grab-n-go ready to eat meals, and a selection of produce, bread, dairy and grocery items all at prices that will put a smile on your face, and designed to fit within every budget." The grocery has a kitchen on site and prepares many of the grab-and-go items fresh daily.
Rauch says of the new venture, "We make a distinction between food waste and wasted food. Food waste should go to the trash. But it's wasted food that is a vast majority of what's being tossed. It's cosmetically blemished in some instances, but it's still perfectly good to eat."

It's a sad fact, but about 31% of food products go uneaten, but 1 in 6 Americans is currently battling hunger. (This data is from the USDA.)
As a non-profit grocery store, Rauch designed the supermarket with a goal of meeting the real needs of hunger in America -- to run like a business but to serve the needs of the community.

"We're trying to reach a segment of the population that is hard to reach. It's the working poor who are out buying food, but who can't afford the food they should be eating," he says. "We'll be doing all of this by recovering food from supermarkets, growers and food distributors that would otherwise have been wasted. Hunger & wasted food are two problems that can have one solution."
On the controversial idea of using semi-expired food, he says, "I'm a fan of America taking a second look at expiration dates. We as a society need to wise up about what these codes really are. We are throwing out billions of pounds of food every year due to these 'best by' and 'sell by' codes that are completely unrelated to food safety."

Healthy fast food
In addition to the goal of aiding hunger and avoiding waste, Rauch has another goal: to "provide healthy meals that are no more expensive than what people are already buying." He says of the in-house meal creations, "Our healthy meal options will be priced to compete with the fast-food alternatives in the neighbourhood."
Half of the store's inventory is produce and packaged good, and the other half is ready-to-serve meal items.
The next cities? In an interview with Boston Globe, Rauch says he is thinking of opening stores more stores in Boston area and add other cities like Detroit, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco.

The Independent Online
RESEARCH carried out for the Consumers' Association revealed that 31 per cent of visitors to garden centres choose a plant by looking at its label. Another 21 per cent look up plants in books or magazines before they decide to buy. About the same number feel they are sufficiently knowledgeable to choose for themselves. Only 6 per cent of garden centre users thought it worthwhile going to the staff for advice. That will come as a surprise to no one. The research provided the impetus for the CA's Which Plant? computer program which is gradually being installed in garden centres. It is a simple touch-screen program designed to help gardeners choose the right plant for their needs by answering a series of questions. Don't be bossed by it though. Plants have more tricks than even the CA can think of.

Hello everybody,
After receiving some remarks about the graphic evolution of Vickie Cr, we wanted to explain you the reasons which led us to this modification.
Until a few months, most of the characters created were not processed for a high definition adaptation and notably the very first characters like our dear Vickie Cr.
But with the technical advance of different devices like the Iphone, the Ipod Touch or the Ipad, and for a better rendering ; to our great regret, we had to rework some of our oldest creations.
Indeed, older characters were created with a very limited resolution, and unfortunately it became impossible for us to easily work with those pictures.
Even if we weren't really for a modification, the different evolutions we plan on Urban Rivals force our hand.
Admittedly, some visuals will be slightly affected (it's the case for our Vickie Cr), but the obtained results are very convincing and do not denature your characters even so.
Thank you for your understanding.
I vote we have a Metal Rabbit for a character this new year!
Miss Twice Cr lvl2 art and spiaghi final art looks different
Are they being modificated too ?
I'd say Spiaghi was just zoomed in a bit..
Has Vickie Cr now gone back to the newer artwork that was rejected in late December? It looks that way to me. Please don't leave it like this.
Can someone confirm that the current Vickie Cr artwork is once again Vickie Cr Mark II? Why? Could you at least fix it so she has some eyes? Or even better change it back - for the second time!

The Darwin anniversary celebrations last year were the most lavish ever for a British scientist. Now, with the garlands and bunting stored away, comes the party pooper, in the form of Jerry Fodor and Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini's book What Darwin Got Wrong (Profile, £20). Richard Dawkins's friend, the US philosopher Daniel Dennett, once noted to him that if he ever fell on hard times he could make a million dollars in a week by proposing to author a book entitled "Confessions of an Ex-Darwinian". Hence the inflammatory and tendentious title of this book.
Perhaps there was a risk in making such a fuss of the great man that what is known about evolution now and what Darwin wrote 150 years ago should become confused in the popular mind. Darwin was writing speculatively, before there was any scientific knowledge of genetics or the chemistry of life.
We are living in the golden age of biology, with discoveries pouring from the genome projects and even the prospect of personal, consumer genomes available at a modest price within five to ten years. Science honours Darwin as a pioneer, at the very beginning of modern biology, not the man who brought the holy tablets and whose writ must run for evermore.
So why would Jerry Fodor (philosopher) and Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini (cognitive scientist) be so concerned to refute aspects of Darwin's theory? Their book makes it very clear that an academic turf war lies behind it all. The stimulus was the outrage Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini felt for what they see as the misuse of Darwinism in the social sciences. Evolutionary psychology, in particular, gets their goat.
Evolutionary psychologists claim that the human mind was essentially formed by our life as hunter-gatherers in the Pleistocene ice age: we were adapted to that so aren't very well adapted to life in the shopping mall. These stories are fascinating, maybe true in some cases, but are untestable. The book includes a 15-page dossier of quotes from the culprits, the star turn being Steven Pinker.
Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini think that the best way to clear these pesky theorists from the campuses is to attack the idea of adaptive evolution at its root. Their title suggests that it is Darwin himself they are gunning for but, in fact, their target is an updated Darwinism enshrined around 50 years ago as the Modern Synthesis or Neo-Darwinism.
Beginning with the rediscovery of Mendel's work in 1900, genetics had posed some problems for the theory of natural selection. The Modern Synthesis was an amalgam of natural selection and Mendelian genetics.
Its leading contributors were Theodosius Dobzhansky, Ernst Mayr, Julian Huxley, and JBS Haldane. The result was somewhat bland, usually summarised as: "Evolution is considered to have occurred if the frequencies of genes change in a population". It was abstract, statistical, and left out the living creatures themselves, their flesh and bones and chemistry.
Now that the facts about the living creature and its genes are pouring from biology's horn of plenty, scientists are divided on whether the new findings shake the old Modern Synthesis. Polling some biologists and science writers and scanning the literature reveals that about half believe that the new findings can be harmonised with the old.
Richard Dawkins says: "Population genetics' ideas of evolution always treated development as a black box that would one day have to be opened. It is a very good thing that the box is now finally being opened... but the Modern Synthesis still stands." Professor Steven Rose at the Open University disagrees: "If by the Modern Synthesis you mean the reduction of the definition of evolution to changes in gene frequency in a population, I would say no."
Dawkins also stresses that natural selection "is the principal driver (indeed, probably the only) driver of adaptive evolution." Adaptive evolution, for Dawkins, is the result of very many infinitesimally small random variations, but huge changes in the genome are common. The wheat in your bread underwent a six-fold genome copy before it became the crop we know. And natural selection mostly acts to eliminate harmful mutations; it does not seem to be the principle source of new body plans.
Taking account of all this, in a recent Darwin celebratory article, Eugene Koonin, researcher at the US National Institutes of Health, calls for a New Extended Synthesis, writing: "The edifice of the Modern Synthesis has crumbled, apparently beyond repair." Lynn Margulis, James Lovelock's collaborator on the Gaia Theory and "science's unruly earth mother" according to Science magazine, expressed this even more pungently almost 20 years ago. She called Neo-Darwinism "a minor 20th-century religious sect within the sprawling religious persuasion of Anglo-Saxon Biology... Neo-Darwinism is in a complete funk."
Margulis's credibility rests on her achievement (generously recognised by Richard Dawkins) in demonstrating that the single-celled ancestor of all multi-celled life on earth was the result of one bacterial cell swallowing another (the two lived happily together ever after). One small gulp for a bacterium; a giant gobble for the future of life on earth. And about as far from a minor mutation as you can get.
But the biologist and science writer Matt Ridley sees no problem in achieving a New Extended Synthesis: "It is not that it is 'needed'; it 'is happening'. Modern evolutionary developmental biology is replete with examples of discovering both developmental changes and the ways they are being selected, for example in Darwin's finches".
Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini use a two-pronged attack to try to undermine Neo-Darwinism. First, they detail some of those modern examples. Secondly, they attack the logic of Neo-Darwinism. In their philosophical assault, Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini pursue several lines, one of which boils down to the old conundrum: natural selection demonstrates the survival of the fittest. What are the fittest? Those that survive. Scientists know that this is a trivial linguistic trick but Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini pursue this wrangling for 68 pages. At the nadir, Fodor facetiously proposes a research programme to enquire into how objects perfectly fit their hole in space.
What Darwin Got Wrong concludes that there can be no unifying theory of evolution. For Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini, the story of evolution is an historical one, just like human history. Everything only happens once and can be interpreted after the event - but not predicted. But, unremarked by Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini, it has been shown that some traits – wing patterns in fruit flies, body armour in sticklebacks – have been gained and lost several times in the course of evolution.
Fodor is a philosophical flâneur: he loves cheap jokes and affects a kind of provocative insouciance. His 2003 book on Hume states at the outset that he "could even write a book on Hume without actually knowing anything about him," and then claims to have done so. Philosophers and scientists could not be further apart. For geneticist and science writer Professor Steve Jones, "philosophy is to science what pornography is to sex."
No, the problems for evolutionary theory are not philosophical. The problem is that the source of novelty is so dammed elusive. Most genes don't change very much at all, even the body-plan genes seem to be very similar in the mouse and blue whale. Or, to compare even less similar creatures: a mouse gene essential for building the eye can be inserted into the fruit fly to produce a fly eye! This refutes a key prediction of Neo-Darwinism, Ernst's Mayr's statement that it would be futile to look for similar genes in different creatures. Neo-Darwinism predicted that random mutations would pile up until the genes of mice and men were as different as, say, the Finno-Ugric and the English languages.
The best bet at the moment seems to lie in the altered timing of processes involving cascades of many genes. And what alters the timing? Well, now we're at the frontline of research, and there are candidates but no certainties. One of the most dramatic possibilities is that elements of DNA have entered the germline from viruses. Putting this together with Margulis's ideas on the evolution of the ancestral single cell, we can see that viruses and bacteria are starting to loom very large in the picture of evolution.
This primacy-of-microbes idea has already entered fiction in one of David Eagleman's short stories from his cult collection Sum (2009). In "Microbe", God made the world in his own image and He is a microbe. All of the multicellular creatures who think themselves the lords of creation are invisible to him, their much vaunted actions as lost to record as a bacterium we might accidentally smear from a surface and carry across the world. The evolution of viruses and bacteria clearly evinces very different principles to the evolution of the multi-celled creatures that followed.
Unlike physics, biology is the science of exceptions. Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini come to the same conclusion but mostly for the wrong reasons.
Given the provocative title, it's important to stress what Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini's polemic is not. From the outset, they assert that they have no quarrel with the course of evolution and its timescale, only its mechanism. Furthermore, they affirm that they are "outright, card-carrying, signed-up, dyed-in-the-wool, no-holds-barred atheists." For that small relief, much thanks.

SUBWAY(R) Restaurants Substantially Increases 2006 NASCAR Sponsorship Presence
- Relationships with Greg Biffle, Roush Racing; Two NEXTEL Cup Series Events -
Feb 16, 2006, 00:00 ET from SUBWAY Restaurants
MILFORD, Conn., Feb. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- SUBWAY(R) Restaurants, the world's largest submarine sandwich chain, will heighten sponsorship efforts with NASCAR's Greg Biffle of Roush Racing in its third year of team sponsorship. SUBWAY(R) restaurants made its first NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series appearance as a team sponsor in 2001. Today, SUBWAY(R) restaurants are set to be the primary sponsor of the No. 16 National Guard/SUBWAY(R) Ford Fusion at 11 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series races in 2006, including two entitlement races. The SUBWAY Fresh 500(TM) will take place at Phoenix International Raceway on April 22 and the SUBWAY 500(TM) at Martinsville Speedway on October 22. "SUBWAY(R) restaurants continues to become increasingly visible in NASCAR," said Roush Racing president Geoff Smith. "We are looking forward to working with SUBWAY(R) during the 2006 season and anticipate another phenomenal year on the track." Biffle finished the 2005 NEXTEL Cup season second in the point standings and is considered a leading contender for this year's title. Last year, Biffle led all NEXTEL Cup Series drivers with six victories. "SUBWAY(R) is very pleased to expand its presence in NASCAR, building top- of-mind awareness in a premier sport that is highly-relevant to our consumers," said Rick Sender, Franchisee and Chairman of the SUBWAY(R) Franchisee Advertising Fund Trust. "As we continue to enjoy phenomenal business growth and solidify our position among the world's leading brands, we'll look to associate with winners like Greg Biffle and Roush Racing." The SUBWAY(R) restaurant chain is the world's largest submarine sandwich franchise, with more than 25,000 locations in 83 countries. In 2002, the SUBWAY(R) chain surpassed McDonald's in the number of restaurants open in the United States and Canada. Headquartered in Milford, Conn., the SUBWAY(R) restaurant chain was co-founded by Fred DeLuca and Dr. Peter Buck in 1965. That partnership marked the beginning of a remarkable journey -- one that made it possible for thousands of individuals to build and succeed in their own business. The SUBWAY(R) chain was named the number one franchise opportunity in all categories by Entrepreneur magazine in its Annual Franchise 500 ranking for 2006 -- for the 14th time in 18 years!

Re: Toilet in Bus running Matsumoto-Takayama-Kanazawa?
Sorry, I can't remember specifically. However, I do remember stopping at Ogimachi halfway between Takayama and Kanazawa, and most people got out to use the toilet and walk around for 10 minutes. It's quite amazing scenery at Ogimachi, still snow on the ground in April. I don't think either leg between stops was more than two hours.

Re: Toilet in Bus running Matsumoto-Takayama-Kanazawa?
I took a look at the Japanese page for Nohi Bus and this is what I can see.
Takayama-Kanazawa: Only 2 buses a day go that all the way and they both have 10 minute stops about an hour in or so. This bus will stop for 10 minutes in Shirakawago (If I read the kanji correctly). Do note that I don't know if you can get out of the bus or not. Just ask the driver if you do go that way.
Takayama-Matsumoto: 6 buses a day and no stops. Since it is only a 2 hour journey, they won't stop.
The Toyama route doesn't appear to have any stops.
I tried to find info on the buses themselves but found no information. I assume they don't have washrooms, but I could be wrong.

Boardwalk Empire
Scorsese takes us back to the ferocious Atlantic City of prohibition
After having gotten a sensational success back home, the TV series Boardwalk Empire is ready to come to Italy (from January on Sky Cinema 1 HD). Produced by HBO with a cost of more than 60 million dollars, Boardwalk Empire comes from an idea by Terence Winter (The Sopranos) and is co-produced by Oscar winner Martin Scorsese -who also directed the pilot- and actor Mark Wahlberg. On the screen a stellar cast in which Steve Buscemi, the handsome Michael Pitt of The Dreamers and actress Paz de la Huerta, who has stood out for some steamy scenes (with and without lingerie, created by costume designer John Dunn), shine.
The series is set in Atlantic City in the '20s, during the ferocious years of Prohibition, based on the novel by the same by Nelson Johnson (from January 25th in bookstores, published by Newton Compton). Scorsese has taken care of every detail: Atlantic City during the 20s has been entirely rebuilt in Brooklyn and the boards of the promenade of the city are the same size as they were then.

Phoenix Suns
Suns gaining trust, familiarity with one another
The Phoenix Suns are far from a finished product. But the product is starting to take shape.
"(We're) now starting to see the evidence of hard work and what we put into it," PJ Tucker said. "It's really starting to pay off."
The Suns have followed up a season-worst seven-game losing streak with a season-best four-game winning streak.
"Guys are getting to know each other," head coach Alvin Gentry said. "When you throw nine new guys into a situation sometimes it takes a little time."
With more than a quarter of the season gone, the Suns are finally seeing some results, positive results.
"You have a team forming an identity," Jared Dudley said.
The identity started on the defensive end.
The Suns are doing a better job closing out on shooters and preventing dribble penetration. The result: A team that allowed 49 percent shooting during the recent slide is now defending at a 43 percent clip in the last four games.
Offensively, the Suns are enjoying their best stretch of sharing the basketball.
Gentry has long preached the art of the extra pass. His team is better when it makes three, four or even five passes per possession. Against Charlotte, the Suns assisted on a season-high 31 of their 47 made baskets.
"Guys are now giving up that pass where they know now they're going to get it in return," Dudley said. "And that's how it was ever since I've been here. You give up a good shot because you know you're going to get so many good shots throughout a game, and that wasn't happening early on."
The recent success has translated into the second-longest active win streak in the NBA. A fifth straight win Saturday in Portland would surpass the team's longest win streak from all of last season.
"Every time we walk on the court, we feel like we got a chance to win," Tucker said. "We've been saying that all year and now we're starting to really show it."
Suns players, coaches and support staff gathered for an off day of bowling on Thursday.
"It was not pretty," Gentry said. "(PBA Hall of Famer) Pete Weber would not have been proud."
According to Tucker, rookie Diante Garrett was the worst.
"He got three zeros, which I have never seen before in my life," Tucker said. "My daughter can knock down a pin. We were going to put the bumpers up for him."

I thought I'd share a great little tip I found here for getting the kids to take care of their personal responsibilities independently (or as independent as a 3 and 5 year old can!)
Each morning and evening the boys know to do their "handful of things." This is simply five things they are always expected to do. For us the morning is:
1. Go potty
2. Get dressed
3. Comb hair
4. Brush teeth
5. Make their bed
In the evening they:
1. Put on jammies
2. Take their medicine-we all have allergies 😉
3. Take their vitamin
4. Brush and floss teeth
5. Go potty
Having the "handful" helps them remember just what they are supposed to do and makes the hectic mornings and evenings run a lot smoother for everyone. They think of it almost as a game and we praise heavily when they excitedly announce that they have done their handful each morning and evening. Its a simple routine that makes a big difference!
Please let me now if you try it and how it goes over in your home, it took our boys about a week to get in the habit of it and its been smooth sailing since!

An Introduction To Feng Shui
Are You Looking For Ways to Receive More Wealth, Abundance and Peace of Mind?
Dear Friend,
Feng Shui is starting to revolutionize people in ways never thought of before. This ancient Chinese secret can change the way you do things and provide you with the wealth and abundance that you've been searching for!
More and more people are interested in learning this method, but don't know how to go about it.
An Introduction to Feng Shui
The guide begins by explaining the definition of this Chinese practice and how it came into being. It also lists the methods of Feng Shui, including the Ba-Gua method. In addition to that, there are other elements that play a major part in the Feng Shui practice and this audio ebook will show you how they operate.
You Will Learn:
What is "Chi" and how it works in relation to Feng Shui
The Productive and Destructive Cycles and how they work in conjunction with the Feng Shui practice
It is very important to know what the colors used in Feng Shui stand for. There are 11 colors listed in this guide with explanations of what they represent in the Feng Shui world.
You can't be happy unless you have a happy home, right? If you don't have peace, you can't have positive flow in your life. It's important that you make a connection and find harmony. When you incorporate Feng Shui, your situation can change from negative to positive. Plus…
Why it's important to have that connection with your home
What you can do to make that happen
What to do if the atmosphere is not responding the way you want it to
What not to do if the atmosphere is not responding the way you want it to
Did you know that having a lot of clutter is a hindrance to moving forward? It also represents disorganization. Clutter can stop you in your tracks and cause you to not receive energy from Feng Shui. You need to be free and clear of mess. This guide explains two other things that clutter represents and what you can do to get rid of it.
Did you know that having a happy home can affect your relationships with other people? Just think about it, if you're not happy, then you transfer that feeling to others in their presence. Who wants to be around a person that is always unhappy everytime you're with them?
Changing your furniture can help you have a better relationship with others
What to install outside of your home to bring about change
What to do when you find positive energy in your home
What you can do to increase energy in the kitchen
Why you should use the colors from the Feng Shui method in your bedroom
Why you should have air-purifying plants in your home office
How to enhance the presence of Chi

A monstrous chamber
Where leafy pods are growing,
In glass cylinders.
In the leafy pods
A horrid writhing breaks out,
Pods about to burst.
Nameless mutant plants?
Or weird dimensional freaks?
Horror writhes within!
A single pod bursts
Out comes a green tentacle,
Writhing like an arm.
A verdant body
Manlike (yet plantlike) follows,
Bursting from the pod.
A leafy monster
Manlike yet alien as well,
Stands outside the pod.
Tentacles smack glass
The cylinders cracks, then breaks,
Out steps the plant beast.
Soon all the pods are
Beginning to burst open:
An army breaks out.
Cylinders explode
The plant creatures step out and,
Search round the chamber.
Soon they discover
Stairs leading up and out of,
Their basement prison.
They kill scientists
Whom they discover upstairs,
Tending to the pods.
Then they move onward
Out of the secret lab,
Into the outside world.
Pod creatures marching
Into an unwary world,
Soon they start to kill.
The pod creatures war
Against humanity till,
Terror reigns supreme.
Human beings die
In thousands, then in millions,
As the war goes on.
Pod creatures winning
The human race is dying,
Nothing left to lose.
Atom bombs are used
The pod creatures are dying,
And humanity.
Men and pod creatures
Are all eradicated,
Planet Earth is dead!

We hope you were able to join us for the free online webinar on October 9th, "Conquering the Query: Getting the Most Out of Social Media Monitoring." Co-hosted between DragonSearch and Brandwatch, we reviewed what Boolean queries are and how to construct an efficient and effective Boolean search query in a social media monitoring tool that will return the mentions that you want, and not a lot of irrelevant results.
This webinar idea came from our white paper, "The Importance of the Boolean Search Query in Social Media Monitoring Tools". In this white paper, I discussed topics such as:
- Why to do social media monitoring
- What to monitor
- Ways to express variations in keywords, basic and advanced Boolean search operators
- Post-search filters to further refine results
- The different types of user interfaces for queries in various social media monitoring tools
- Other things to consider when evaluating which social media monitoring tool is the best for your needs.
Since we use BrandWatch at DragonSearch and used their social media monitoring tool in our case study, they suggested we do an online webinar together to help people construct better Boolean queries. In the free webinar, co-hosted with Jasmine Jaume and Gemma Cooper of Brandwatch, we talked about why queries are important, I went through the case study of a complicated brand name that I used in the White Paper, we reviewed top tips for writing great queries, and answered questions from attendees.
Commonly asked was how to deal with search terms that are commonly used for many things, like the name of a movie that's also a person's name, or monitoring an open debate that doesn't involve brand names. These queries can be tricky and are likely to require a lot of trial and error to fine tune it to exclude irrelevant mentions. The key is to include context words that help find only the mentions related to what you're looking for.
One important concept to keep in mind is that your query is probably never "done". It takes continuous fine tuning, removing sites or words that are irrelevant as they come up, adding new variations of your brand names or keywords as you think of them, and excluding spammy sites or frequently used words. A query should constantly be improved to give you the most accurate results as possible so your time isn't wasted and your analysis will be more accurate.
There were so many questions that we couldn't get to all of them. Some of the unanswered questions have been addressed in a Brandwatch blog post about our webinar.
Webinar Attendees and Feedback
The free webinar was very successful with a large list of attendees who had job descriptions in many areas, but mostly social media managers, analysts, directors and CEOs. Clearly monitoring your brand and what people are saying about it is an important task for businesses, from community managers up to the CEO!
Here are some of the comments we received:

Paul Rakov
Great job on this, Jannette. I read the white paper and was on the webinar. But this recap is a good "cheat sheet" for when I'm setting up some new clients' monitoring.
Jannette Pazer
You must be an expert then by now! But trial and error are the best ways to hone your query writing skills. The constant tweaking and reviewing the results for success is how I learned to get the queries to pull in only what I wanted.
Victoria Eveleth
Jannette, since the start of following your whitepaper, I have found the "trial and error" process you speak of to be the most valuable (as well as unavoidable) part of the process. Even experts on creating boolean will be continuously updating their queries. Fact is, you really don't know what is going to get pulled in, until you get in there are start testing!
Amazing work all around! Bravo :)
Jannette Pazer
Thanks Vicky! It definitely is an ongoing process… but it's so satisfying when you get a bunch of relevant results without any junk included!
Jannette Pazer
Glad it was easy to follow! It's not always clear what level the audience is and whether they have a math background or any experience with Boolean expressions.
The information presented in the whitepaper, blog post from Brandwatch, and the webinar itself vary in detail. But all are essential for social marketers who get the best results for their clients. This post fro Jannette points us to all the other sources.
Jannette Pazer
Thanks Henry! I hope all of those sources are of help to digital marketers looking to find mentions of their brands in the stream of noise from the internet.
Jannette Pazer
Thanks Jason! Let me know what you think after you watch it.
Danielle Correia
Well done Jannette! This is truly a great way to learn about Boolean; the examples (especially the pizza ones) help visualize and break down the concepts so they are easily digestible (no pun intended). Anyone responsible for setting up social media mentions should watch this training.
Jannette Pazer
Thanks Danielle! I think understanding Boolean queries is not only good for social media mentions, but can be useful with many types of tools, applications and databases which allow for some type of search. Every tool has different user interfaces and syntax rules, so the details may be different, but the concepts remain the same.

Well, if you think you are reasonably well versed in what's what and who's doing it to whom, we challenge you to take our monthly news quiz! All you have to do is read the following questions and then answer them.
OK, here we go:
1. If President Clinton went on television and said that he was resigning as the US President, how would we know if he were telling the truth or not?
2. The US has forbidden all foreign trade with Cuba. The Pope has recently disobeyed this order by going on a goodwill mission to Havana. Washington has therefore slapped a trade embargo on the the Papacy, and forbidden all international trade with the Vatican. President Clinton has, as it were, excommunicated the Pope. True or false?
3. Fearful of a future trade embargo, the Vatican has long ago transferred all its manufacturing base out of the Vatican, so that it doesn't actually export anything from there. True or false?
4. Saddam Hussein has always suspected that Iraq might be subject to a surprise military attack, as indeed it was, by Iran. Therefore he has developed secret weapons to neutralise such a surprise military attack. The US has insisted on its right (via the UN) to neutralise such secret weapons. Saddam Hussein disputes this right. The US is therefore planning a secret military attack on Iraq to prove him wrong. But Saddam Hussein will say that such a secret military attack will show that he was right all along to be prepared for it. Can you spot the logical flaw, if any, in the above statement?
5. Which of the following are now known to be real, and which are thought to be fictional? a) The Northern Ireland Peace Process b) The Global Warming Process c) The Robin Cook Love Process d) The Bill Clinton Sex Process.
6. It is commonly thought that the Vatican did not, in fact, have any export trade and therefore could not be subject to a trade embargo. However, they sell millions of dollars worth of Catholic souvenirs every year, all in the worst possible taste, and the manufacture of these has now been transferred from the Holy See to safe Catholic countries such as Mexico and ... well, Mexico, and registered under false names to protect the Pope. True or false?
7. Which of the following has been chosen to be stored and displayed in the Millennium Dome? a) Two Fat Ladies b) The 1997 Labour manifesto, with certain pages torn out c) The entire Government VIP lounge from Heathrow Airport. d) A St Francis of Assisi cocktail shaker.
8. CJD stands for what? a) Criminal Justice Department b) Crate of Jack Daniels c) Co-starring Jack Dee d) "Cranberry Juice" Delia e) Cunningham, Jack, so-called "Doctor".
9. During his recent visit to Cuba, which was staged ostensibly for religious reasons, the Pope in fact fixed a multi-million deal with Castro whereby the lucrative Catholic souvenir trade would have its manufacturing base in Cuba from now on. True or false?
10. Which Robin Cook would you rather be? a) The American author of books such as Coma b) The British author of such books as He Died With His Eyes Open c) The character featured in the nursery rhyme: "All the birds of the air fell a-sighing and a-sobbing, / When they heard of the extremely tangled private love life of Cook, Robin" d) Any other Robin Cook.
First correct entry receives a prize of an effigy of the Blessed Virgin Mary which is usable as a cigarette lighter, marked `Fabricado en Cuba'.

Numerous power interruptions in my area. Decided to research a battery uninterrupted power supply. This unit met my criteria. Handles voltage and wattage well, excellent displays, and has performed exceedingly well during unexpected power interruptions.
I went from a APC unit to this one and really enjoy the features it offers and is less expensive. So far, no problems and VERY quiet ! AA++
I live in an area that has questionable power. It seems like every time the wind blows the power goes out, or when the AC turns on the lights dim and I lose connection to the internet. This is a problem as I work at home and need a reliable connection to the Internet.
Purchased the CyberPower CP1500 and connected to my cable modem, and wifi router. In the six months since doing so I have yet to lose connection with the internet, even after having lost power for over two hours at one point.
Great device, highly recommend it for anyone with similar power issues.
This is the best unit I have had so far, and I've had many. Quiet!! I never hear it operating. It charged within minutes of pugging it in. I have Win 7 64 bit OS, 16 Gb RAMM, Intel i7 860 2.8 Gb CPU (O/C to 3.5 Gb), two monitors, two printers, and several heavy duty computer components including two high end graphics cards, four 2 Terabite HHD's, and a 850 Watt power supply, it handles it very well. To test it, after it was fully charged, the indicator claimed a 12 minute operating time before shut down, with a video playing in HD (to load up the graphics cards), both printers on, and both monitors operating. I unplugged it from the wall socket and started the timer, it ran 11 mins and 45 sec's then shut down my system. I couldn't be any more satisfied with this purchase, hands down! It is the best I've ever come across.
This is a very good performing and well built unit. I especially like the blue backlit information display on the front (which is useful for reading pretty much all the stats when the unit is not connected to a computer). The UPS load reading (in KW) is especially handy. The software that comes with the unit is good as well (e.g., allows the user to read all stats, perform self-tests, permanently turn off alarm tones, etc.).
This unit will run my Intel quad core PC and 24" LCD monitor for about 40 minutes. This is the best overall UPS that I've used (and I've used several APC, Belkin and Energizer units in the past... all usually have their quirks - this one doesn't). The 1350VA version of this UPS is also very nice (providing nearly as much backup time at a lower cost).
I received this item very quickly and the hookups with the computer was very easy. This new technology has the readings one would look for in a great product. I can tell at a glance how it is working. Definitely a good buy.
Works great. Software presents details very nicely. Worked perfectly in two power outages as of this review. I have the computer and three 21" flatscreens connected. Software shows this as a battery backed-up load of 243 watts and estimated battery runtime of 18 minutes, which is fine for my purposes.
It is smaller than the APC it replaces, has a bigger battery and is as good as any UPS I have brought
i have used many battery back ups and un interuptable power supplies. they all say they are the best, to be honnest there is very little differance. but one has always come to mind ... BATTERY.. the battery in most products doesnt last, either the charger in the uniot fails or the battery has to be replace by the end of 1 year. i have never had to replace a cyberpower battery to this day. some have gone as long as three years. that makes it a value. not to mention that cool blue display looks awesome.
Had an outage less than a week after getting the unit, worked flawlessly,
this product is great compared to some other USB brands, this one is a high capacity, and affordable price, it give me about 40 minute of back up battery power using CPU 19" monitor wireless router.
the frostrating thing is the software that governs this UPS, I would rat it at 0 maybe, it does not have much preferances, and sometimes it disconnects from the computer without any reason. another thing is this software is able to put your computer to sleep, but ones asleep and you had a black out, your computer will shut down without going back to use UPS, because ones the computer asleep it gets disconnected from UPS and lose all the comunication.
other then this the product is great.
This was purchased because we lose power often and it takes 4 min for my generator to kick in. I wanted to protect my TV from the associated surges. This is wonderful. VERY powerful.
I received my product quickly and it worked fine at start. The first problem is the the protection offered for telephone lines is a single use. So any little glitch on the phone line blows the circuit. The only option to to get a replacement Backup system while still under warranty. So I am left basically un protected or will have to buy a separate phone line surge protector. Not good! The other problem is that the system only shuts down 1 computer even though you can plug several into it.
I don't understand why you don't have a lithium ion battery in it.
I purchased this after last power surge to stop having to rebuild drives on the desktop and losing connections. I purchased my own modem and needed a way to insure that I would have internet if power went out so, I am giving this one a try. So far so good
Seems like a bullet proof unit. My only regret is that I did not buy and install before the power stutter that destroyed my computer and two disk drives. Third drives out for data recovery. Electrical service is expected to get much worse, and a good UPS of adequate size should prove to be a good investment. USB link from the UPS to the computer w/ supplied software installed will properly shut the computer down when the battaries get low so you don't lose anything.
Looks and feels like a quality product. The lcd display provides a refreshing amount of feedback. I had a complete power outage at my business shortly after hooking these up and they performed nicely and within specs.
We like this product - it meets all of our needs and beyond; for the price and exceptional processing and delivery time of the order - we couldn't have gotten a better deal.
I only purchased this product one (1) month ago, but so far, it's doing its job, and what more can one ask? I am hoping that it continues to work well in years to come.

Bottom line,marriage equality is coming and you can't do anything to stop it,rightfully so! And it will do nothing to harm your marriage and it will do nothing to harm my marriage!

Giving more power to the Federal Government is not "expanding right's".
There is no Constitutional Right to marriage.
The problem is, those whom are in favor of same sex marriage can comprehend that. The other thing they can't comprehend is the one can be in favor of same sex marriage while also understanding that there is no Constitutional mandate to accept it.
The Constitution isn't, nor was it ever designed to "grant right's". Read it sometime. It is nothing more than the architecture and structure to form a government. It is an outline of power's. It is a restrictive document on the Federal Government. It is a document which is designed to protect the States from infringement. Until this fabricated incorporation doctrine by the SCOTUS, the Bill of Right's was strictly a mandate for the Federal Government.
The States are sovereign.

Lied? Not at all... You just want to argue over linguistics. Another attempt to DISTRACT us from the ridiculousness of your comments.
And what part of "turn the other cheek" and "beat your swords into ploughshares, spears into prune hooks" and "love your neighbor as you love yourself" makes you think that there has EVER been a "justified war" or "justified capital punishment"? You are dead wrong, as always.
Interesting how you claim that evolution has determined that homosexuality is a defect, when "evolution" is the one who seems to have come up with us and continues to make us.
And you know nothing about what science has "virtually proven". You make such amateurish mistakes that you embarrass yourself when you wade into anything of substance.
And our very existence will come to an end by someone like you. You are NOBODY'S savior! You fan the flames of hate. You want homosexuals to disappear from the planet. Every single thing you say about us indicates that what I claim about you is TRUE.

This response is why I posted the original post. Youre just too stupid to realize how transparent you are. Is English your first language? BTW, I do know how a human life is created, but, reproduction does not equal superiority. And a couples ability to reproduce or not reproduce has no bearing on a right to marry. Why would you think reproduction has anything to do with marriage rights? Its these types of bigoted viewpoints that are convincing more and more Americans to support Gay Marriage Equality.

You left off the fact that the last bit, an insult, is the opinion of an insignificant being. In that post I haven't ruled in or out the possibility that a superior being(s) exists. I just haven't included the notion that our petty BS is of great concern to them.
I take it by your opening salvo you think I need to give odds as numbers. You're being a bit obtuse to think I need to provide specific numbers since we really don't know the number of galaxies and solar systems that exist in our universe. We don't know the dimensions of the universe. Perhaps it is infinite with an infinite number of galaxies with an infinite number of solar systems. A one in a googolplexian chance becomes certainty when there are an infinite number of chances.
Who said a thing about generating a life form out of nothingness? All the building blocks are present.
Since you seem to be full of answers, tell us about the origins of a superior being and why it must be Christian (or the faith of your liking).

Divorce maintains consent in marriage; if same sex marriage was licensed I believe the left would attack the consent standard next.
Same sex marriage could harm homosexuals with suits of alienation of affection. Imagine what would happen if every homosexual would become liable for financial damages after a casual tryst.
Same sex marriage is bad because it harms gays.

Is This True? Livebearers will nibble on a pleco until he eventually dies?
I don't know who remembers my recent issues with 29 gallon tank. Low ph caused fin/tail rot and ick, and like 2 inches of my plecos tail shredded and disappeared in a matter of a week. Treated the tank and am raising the ph, but tonight a seemedly knowledgable guy at the Pet store (I know how most of you feel about pet store people) told my cousin, that livebearers will chew on a pleco until it dies. Does anybody know anything about this? Worried! Please help!
post #2 of 7 Old 10-28-2009, 12:42 AM
Many types of fish will take the opportunity to scavenge the dead body of another fish. A healthy pleco being chewed on until he dies? I've never heard of such a thing. Pardon me as I haven't seen your other thread and I may be asking a redundant question but what type of live bearers are you keeping and what size is your pleco? Is just his tail tattered? I keep a 3 1/2 inch pleco with fish twice his size and no one in this tank has the ability to pester, bully or harm him. Plecos are tough fish, IMHO.
If you don't stand up for something you'll fall for anything...
post #3 of 7 Old 10-28-2009, 01:49 AM Thread Starter
He's probably 3-4 inches, even with the large part of his tail gone. It is only his tail that is tattered. I have 3 mollies, 2 swordtails, 2 neon tetras, and 2 red eye tetras with him. He's at least twice the size of any of them still. He in no way seems the docile wimp that the pet store guy claimed they are. When he gets his algae wafer and they go after it, he is not the least bit timid when taking it away from them. The pet store guy claimed that the livebearers do it in the middle of the night (aren't plecos more nocturnal than livebearers?) and they do it b/c they know he will eat their babies. It is my understanding that they will eat there own babies (hence my last batch of babies was one swordtail, and I do have baby grass floating in my tank.) I think that covers all that you asked. I just couldn't really believe this and I can't believe they would all of a sudden, after months and months, shred his tail to half it's size in a week or two tops. ???

Does the pleco have a hiding place ?(he should have) a fake log or cave would give him someplace to heal. I have seen plecos fins become tattered when salt was used in the tank on a too often basis. Have also seen bacterial infections take hold on fin areas of fish where blood vessels are the smallest. IF water conditions are favorable, the fins can heal on their own in a matter of a few weeks. If water conditions deteriorate ,then possible bacterial infection can develop and further secondary infections can present problems to the point where medications may be needed. Keep your water clean and fish can thrive.
The most important medication in your fish medicine cabinet is.. Clean water.
post #5 of 7 Old 10-28-2009, 09:16 AM
Ok this guy at the pet store in my opinion does not know what he is talking about. It sounds more like to me maybe your pleco has fin rot or something. I have never had any fish that I have kept ever bother any pleco I have had. Like Auntie said they have tough skin.
Kindest Regards,
Keeping fish its not a hobby it is a passion!
