Trump slights rival Fiorina's looks: 'Look at that face'
Donald Trump mocked the physical appearance of fellow Republican U.S. presidential candidate Carly Fiorina in remarks published on Wednesday, saying: "Look at that face. Would anyone vote for that?"
The comments by the billionaire real estate developer published in an article on the website of Rolling Stone magazine were aimed at the only woman in the large field of Republicans vying for their party's 2016 presidential nomination.

The magazine reported that Trump, leading in the polls among the Republican contenders, made the remarks while watching Fiorina, the former Hewlett-Packard Co chief executive, on television.
"Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?" Trump is quoted as saying. "I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not s'posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?"
Fiorina, in an interview on Fox News Channel, said she viewed Trump's remarks as "very serious."
"Maybe, just maybe, I'm getting under his skin a little bit because I am climbing in the polls," she said.
The subject did not come up when Trump was interviewed on Fox News by host Sean Hannity, but Trump did express concern about his own looks, noting he had just returned from a trip to Washington.
"I haven't even looked at a mirror so I hope I'm okay. I hope I look fine," said Trump.
"You look fine," said Hannity.

It was not the first time Trump has taunted Fiorina. A month ago he tweeted: "I just realized that if you listen to Carly Fiorina for more than 10 minutes straight, you develop a massive headache. She has zero chance!"
Trump's remarks were his latest barbs aimed at a woman during the campaign. Last month, Trump criticized Fox News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly during and after a Republican debate.
During the debate, Kelly had asked Trump about comments referring to women as "fat pigs" and slobs. Asked about Kelly in a CNN interview last month, Trump said: "You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever."
Trump has touted his "great relationships" with women, saying he had hired thousands of women including top-level employees, adding: "I cherish women."

Spring came. The flowers were out. And so were the bees.
And bees are now a problem in New York City.
New York is called The Big Apple.
The New York Police Department (NYPD) has a "bee man".
He gets a lot of calls in The Big Apple.
Who is the bee man?
The NYPD calls Anthony Planakis when there is a problem with bees.
Planakis is a policeman. And he loves bees.
He has helped the NYPD and people in New York City for 18 years.
But the NYPD called the bee-man 30 times this spring!
Why do people call him?
In the spring, a queen honeybee is reproducing.
This means the hive where the bees live is healthy.
A hive can have 20,000 buzzing bees in it.
Soon it gets too crowded. So, a group of bees will move out with their queen.
Sometimes two groups move. They look for a new place to live.
They form a cluster or close group called a swarm and wait.
There can be 7,000 to 8,000 bees in a cluster.
People and swarms
Planakis knows the bees in a swarm are not dangerous.
The bees are waiting for one of their scouts.
The scouts fly off and look for new homes.
These scouts will fly up to 5 miles away.
Then they return and lead the group to the new place.
Planakis last year removed 2 kg of bees from a tree near a shopping mall.
Sometimes he uses a special box for the bees.
He also rescued a family in their car. The family's car had 10,000 bees on it.
One swarm stayed in a tree near a shop. People stayed away from the shop.
Another swarm was hanging outside the door of a grocery store.
A fire hydrant had 17,000 bees buzzing around it.
Why does New York have a problem?
In 2010, New York City passed a new law.
The law allows people to keep bees. Before 2010,
there were three hives in the city. Now there are 161 hives.
These hives are on the tops of homes and hotels.
Planakis says, " There are too many hives right now."
Beekeeping is becoming more and more popular.
But Planakis says it will be more and more difficult
to control those bees.

Earlier this year I realised that although I have never been fat certain parts of me were getting a little, shall we say jiggly. I decided that I needed to do some exercise. As long distance running was the only sport I had ever been good at, and by good I mean that without any training I still managed to get a reasonable place when we did cross country at school, it seemed perfect for me.
Since the start of my summer holidays, so mid July, I have been running three times a week. With the exception of the two or three weeks I couldn't run because I twisted my ankle, trying to run on the campsite at Greenbelt, stupid I know. As of last week I can run 3.5km without stopping, pretty impressive seeing as when I started I couldn't run for a bus. In fact, as those of you follow me on Facebook will know, on Sunday I competed in my first race since school. 3km, and although I didn't win, or come close, I am pretty proud of the fact that I ran the whole thing. I set a time of just under 18 minutes and came in 140th place far from last. |n fact, when I checked later I was 24th for the women competing, results can be seen here.
So where do I go from here. I have no intention of stopping running, in fact I want to run even more. My next goal is to find a 5km race, then a 10km. I just love the feeling of achievement I get when I do something like this. I know people say that no one enjoys running but there are times like this when I really do. I just hope that I can now keep it up through the winter, that is going to be my next big challenge.

Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard is encouraging eligible veterans to take advantage of the new college education benefits passed by Congress under the GI Bill for the 21st Century.An estimated 2.1 million members of the military who have served on active duty since Sept. 11, 2001, including activated reservists and members of the National Guard, are eligible for up to four years of educational benefits, including stipends for housing and books. "The original GI Bill, which passed in June of 1944 during World War II, sparked widespread economic growth for a whole generation of Americans. It made a free college education available to more than 15 million returning war veterans," Roybal-Allard said. "As with our World War II veterans, I am confident the new GI Bill for the 21st Century will help make America's Iraq and Afghanistan veterans part of a new American economic recovery. "Considering that many of our troops have served two, three or more tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, we owe it to these men and women to afford them the many opportunities our nation has to offer." Last year, Congress restored the promise of a full, four-year college education for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans. This year, Congress extended those benefits to all children of deceased soldiers with no minimum military service needed to qualify. The program pays for tuition and fees up to the maximum in-state tuition and fees at a public institution; a monthly housing allowance at the location of the school; and an annual books and supplies stipend up to $1,000. Benefits are generally payable for up to 15 years following release from active duty.

What is a Ball Peen Hammer? What is a Ball Peen Hammer?
A ball peen hammer (also know as engineer's or machinist's hammer) is a tool that is extensively used in manual metalworking. Its name is derived from the globular shape of one of its head sides and its purpose: the peening of metal surfaces (i.e. the improvement of the metal's mechanical properties by manual or automated blows). Ball peen hammers in Europe and North America may also be refereed to as ball pein or ball pane hammers. These spellings, however, are erroneous and should be avoided.
Ball Peen Hammer Variants
Depending on the material, they are made of, ball peen hammers can be either hard-faced or soft-faced. The heads of the hard-faced hammers are manufactured from high-carbon steel or alloy steel which has been forged and heat-treated. These hammers are particularly strong and should be used with harder metal surfaces. Soft-faced hammers are made from lead, brass, plastic, and even tightly wound rawhide. Their heads and faces should be replaced on a regular basis because they are subject to deformation, wear-out, and breaking. These hammers are to be used with more fragile surfaces.
Ball Peen Hammer Uses
A ball peen hammer can be used for a number of operations, but its main functions are the following:
- Expansion and shaping of the free end of copper roves, light rivets and the like, for the purpose of setting the joint tight in place.
- Smoothing of various metals without marking them. This is done with the ball portion of the hammer.
- Striking punches - punches are manual matrices used to mark wood or metal areas for the placement of holes. The strikes are made with the hammer side opposite its spherical end, usually this side is suitably flat.
- Driving drift pins and making gaskets.
- Cutting sheet metal, rivets, bolts, and plastic by hitting the metal-plated handle of a chisel.
- Blade sharpening - the metal blades of various cutting tools (knives, scythes, etc.) can be finely sharpened with a hard-faced ball peen hammer .
- Forming and tuning of steel drums (also known as steelpans).
Working with a Ball Peen Hammer
Although not as dangerous as, for example, operating an electric saw or other power tool, working with a ball peen hammer requires close attention, concentration on the task that is being performed, and observance of the relevant safety instructions.
Before you start working, inspect the hammer to make sure its head is firmly fixed to the handle. If it is not, the instrument will not be safe to work, repair it or buy another.
When using a ball peen hammer, make sure that your hitting hand grips the handle tightly, and that your other hand, in case you need to support the working space, stays at a safe distance.
If you hurt yourself, call and seek advice from a medical professional. Do not underestimate the injury; remember, even though it may seem a trifle, it could be a potential source of infection; for this reason, always disinfect and bandage the injured area.

For over 30 years Lynda Fitzpatrick has had a passion for growing plants and now, with a little help from NMIT's Study Grants Program, she is a little closer to realising a new career in educating children and their families about the holistic benefits of organic horticulture and gardening.
"I was inspired on this journey by a friend who works as a nurse at the Royal Talbot Hospital with patients who have an acquired bran injury," recalls Lynda. "He has combined his career as a nurse with a passion for gardening and created a sensory garden for patients as part of their recovery therapy. Watching the patients gain a sense of achievement from working in that garden has really spurred me on to do something to make a difference in the world. But, I need to be qualified to be taken seriously."
Lynda has now committed to full-time study this year in NMIT's Diploma of Ornamental Horticulture at the Institute's Fairfield campus.
"I still have to work two days a week (one of which is a Saturday) as we have three kids and a mortgage. Balancing the finances is always tricky and we have pulled in the purse strings very tightly for 2012 with my reduced income."
Lynda says the $1000 study grant, sponsored by Collingwood based GJK Facility Services, will "cover a big chunk of the fees for me, reducing some of that financial pressure and maybe giving me a Saturday or two off to spend time with my kids."
"I feel very strongly about educating our children about growing fresh food ... that peas come from plants not a freezer bag and that you don't need to add preservatives or additives for flavour ... just try fresh instead," says Lynda whose passion for plants and gardening extends to a number of other activities including the Kitchen Garden Program at her son's school, herb garden makeovers and working with Bunnings (Northland) to reduce their wastage of green-life by recycling their 'unsaleable' crop plants as donations to local schools, nursing homes and kindergartens.
"I think the relationship between growing crops, our health and the health of the environment has huge benefits for our children and their future, so somehow I am going to be the 'megaphone' for that message."
Lynda received her award last night at the annual NMIT Study Grants Presentation evening held at the Preston campus conference centre. She joined 117 other students who received grants ranging from $1000 to $10,000 in value including four students who each received grants in excess of $5000 to fund further study, either interstate or overseas.
The evening was attended by NMIT staff (including new CEO - Dr Andy Giddy), students and their families, plus award sponsors and guests including Darebin Deputy Mayor, Cr Diana Asmar, and CEO of Ararat City Council - Andrew Evans.
Grants to a total value of $166, 305 were presented during the evening with approximately eighty percent of recipients nominated by their respective NMIT teaching department in recognition of students' academic performance, commitment to their studies and chosen industry. The remainder were awarded through an Open category in which students could nominate for an award.
The numerous grant winners recognised during the evening had interesting and varied life stories that led them to study at NMIT including:
• a photography student who has dreamed of becoming a professional photographer since her father gave her his old Kodak pocket camera when she was ten-years-old.
• an equine stud management student whose childhood love of horses was rekindled during Year 12.
• an agriculture student who plans to use his award to fund further specialised training in sheep handling and cattle breeding as well as purchasing a special dog pen so his cattle dogs can ride safely on the back of his ute.
• a music student realising a long held dream to study music and who plans to use his award toward the purchase of a Jazz guitar.
Since 1996 NMIT students have been awarded over $2.4 million through the Institute's Study Grants Program. The program is funded by numerous external sponsors, many of whom are local businesses in the northern region. Sponsors fund either individual awards or via the NMIT Industry Foundation. In 2012 NMIT's Faculty of Earth Sciences also directly funded selected awards.

Fifteen years of commercial broadcasting from Skipton came to an end this evening as Fresh Radio bowed out.
In a low key farewell at 5.45pm, drive-time presenter Nick Babb announced the end of live broadcasting from the Fresh studios at Broughton Hall Business Park.
He thanked listeners for their support down the years and said it was an "exciting time" for local radio in Skipton, Ilkley and the Dales. The last Fresh Radio jingle was played at 6pm and since then, the station has been playing music interspersed with trailers announcing: "A new station for the Dales is coming soon".
The Fresh website has been taken down and a message on the site reads: "We are building you a great new radio station, come back and check soon!"
The end came just hours after it was confirmed that Fresh had been purchased by the national UKRD Group in a move that will see the station moved from Craven to the headquarters of neighbouring Stray FM in Harrogate.
Fresh will be rebranded Stray, with the Harrogate station expanding to cover the Yorkshire Dales patch served by Fresh for years.
It means the end of dedicated commercial radio broadcasts from Craven.
UKRD's chief executive, William Rogers said the enlarged station would create "great, locally focussed and relevant radio." He added: "We have been looking at this licence for some time and I am delighted that we have been able to come to a satisfactory agreement with the owners to acquire it."
Sarah Barry, managing director of Stray FM, said the acquisition would lead to people being recruited in the news and sales teams to cover the Dales area: "We are looking to build a strong locally relevant presence in the new part of the TSA and our whole team is really excited about the opportunity this presents us to grow our station and our business more generally," she said.
"What is particularly exciting about this opportunity is that our listeners in the Skipton area will be able to tune in to their local station on FM for the very first time. We are making a significant investment in new technology to make this possible. For a short period, the service will continue to be broadcast on medium wave."
Roger Tempest, the previous owner of Fresh Radio, said that he felt this change would be "a really positive move for the station" and he was excited about the plans that UKRD had.

Temporary warehouses and industrial tents can be used without planning permissions in the UK if they are used for a very short duration only. This can be until 28 days at a given location, and there are exceptions to this. Exceptions take the size, position and building reason into consideration. If the buildings are in use for a longer period that 28 days one usually needs to apply for a semi-permanent or a permanent permission. Together with our local specialists, we have extensive experience with these processes in the UK and will be happy to advise you.
Many of our customers need to obtain planning permission, as they use our buildings for months or years. Our extensive experience shows: In virtually all cases planning permission will be granted. Even though it is a fairly straightforward process we can support you – irrespective of whether you opt for planning permission prior to the installation or retrospective planning permission.
As such, we teamed up with a nationally operating expert for planning work. Their team of professional planning experts and engineers has many years of experience with planning approvals for commercial buildings all across the UK. They can quickly evaluate your project, state an authoritative initial opinion on the chances of getting planning permission and undertake the necessary work for you to obtain all permissions as quickly as possible. This saves you the effort to coordinate between parties as we will be liaising directly with them regarding all technical building aspects.
If you choose to handle a temporary building planning permission application yourself, our engineering team provides you with all the plans and drawings required to support a successful planning application.
Will you know if planning is needed prior to purchasing a building? If the specification, use and location for your building is confirmed, then yes, our planning partners can advise on this.
Whether you want to obtain permission of a short-term use or for a construction permit for a long-term project, Herchenbach will provide you with the static plans for the temporary building. This includes all the design and structural drawings as well as all the necessary calculation packs. Given our vast experience and broad customer base, we offer TÜV-inspected static plans for every building size.
The TÜV-inspected static plans for the various sizes of demountable warehouse buildings satisfy the high requirements for solid building constructions, such as the wind loads in accordance with BS EN 1991 British Building Regulation and EU Building Regulation, as well as the latest other applicable standards.
If required by the authority, our buildings can be supplied with a choice of wall cladding and roof colour options. The building can therefore easily blend in with the surrounding area. Specific fire restrictions can be integrated into the walls and roofs too. Please let us know early on so we can plan accordingly, as lead times for some parts may be long.

I believe that we are not divine creatures. I believe that human beings hold no superiority over the chimpanzee, the dog, or the fish. The human race has become complacent with the imperious idea we are special; we hold some exceptional connection to the cosmos within our over-developed minds. I believe we are just a different kind of animal. Though we are clearly cognitive, emotional, expressive, and advanced beings, I view our place in the world as no different from, and no better than any other species.
From a very young age I've felt a companionship with animals. I cannot recall a time when I viewed them as anything other than living, thinking, feeling creatures. When I was growing up, my catechism teachers told me animals did not have a soul, nor did they go to heaven. Whether I believe in such abstract concepts as souls or heaven at all is debatable. The key is, my inherent opposition to this notion of inequality led me to recognize my belief.
My faith in science has contributed to my belief as well. Understanding the adaptations each species develops to cope with life led me to see the human mind as just one such adaptation. We think to survive. It does not make us better, only smarter. We engage ourselves in the same game of survival nature plays with all beings. We have found our method to make our way in the world, and it works, perhaps too well.
My relationships with the other beings inhabiting this earth cement my feelings. I've often come home in tears, collapsed onto my bed and soon found myself in the company of a concerned feline. Locked in the gaze of those soft, knowing eyes, I am sure of it: Compassion, though certainly a habit of intelligence, is not exclusive to the human race.
I am not a cynical thinker. I simply believe we have a place in the universe that holds no more meaning than any other place. I let this belief guide me every day. I see the world not as my own, but as something shared, something that's been shared for countless centuries. We cannot, as a species claim this earth as our own to mold and destroy. We cannot simply accept ourselves as the inheritors of the planet. We cannot declare ourselves superior and refuse to acknowledge the ability of other creatures to think, love, and feel as we do. We can however coexist.

For decades, the former Liberty ship "SS John W. Brown" was used as a special floating high school in New York City. The curriculum was primarily focused on maritime studies. In 1982, the ship lost its status as a high school. The vessel was then refurbished and moved to Baltimore, Maryland. The "John W.

Mankind has been using bronze for thousands of years. Bronze is made by mixing molten copper with either molten tin or molten arsenic. Arsenic is a metal, but it is also a deadly poison. Many of the blacksmiths who used arsenic became lame and died because arsenic often caused irreversible muscle (including heart muscle) atrophy. Good quality bronze (88 percent copper, 12 percent tin) is stronger than cast iron. Bells made of bronze are generally considered to render the highest quality musical tones.
On November 26, 2003, the final flight of the super-sonic transport Concorde was completed. The Concorde was super-noisy, super-polluting and super-inefficient, but it was FAST. Flight engineers at Lockheed Martin have been working to build a quiet, efficient FAST passenger plane that can cruise at Mach 1.6. In fact, the name of the plane is "Mach 1.6 Supersonic Green Machine." When the aircraft becomes available, passenger flights across the continental United States can take less than 3 hours.
A special program was funded for GIs after World War II. Unemployed former military people were allotted $20 a week for up to 52 weeks. Recipients were known as the "52-20 Club."
Legend has it that the Great Chicago Fire (1871) was started by Mrs. O'Leary's cow. The legend is likely untrue, but the site address is famous in Chicago: 558 DeKoven Street.
Many James Bond fans are aware that Ian Fleming was the author who created the suave 007 character and penned several thrilling spy volumes which were made into movies. What some Fleming fans do not know is that the novelist also wrote the very fanciful book "Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang."
In Genesis 6:14, the Bible states that Noah built his famous ark out of gopher wood. No one today seems to be certain what gopher wood is (or was). Guesses include cypress, pine, reed, fir, ebony, and acacia. Well, monitor your cow – and have a great week.

The brick
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.
As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.
The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, 'What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?'
The young boy was apologetic. 'Please, mister ... please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do,' He pleaded. 'I threw the brick because no one else would stop ...' With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. 'It's my brother, 'he said 'He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.'
Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, 'Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.'
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat ... He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. 'Thank you and may God bless you,' the grateful child told the stranger. Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy! push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home ...
It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: 'Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!' God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

To fully appreciate the power of OS OpenData, it is best used within a geographical information system (GIS). You may already be using a commercial GIS such as ESRI, MapInfo or Cadcorp within your business, but if you do not have such systems in place, you may want to consider using an open-source solution.
The use of open-source software and OS OpenData offers the choice between cutting costs and improving delivery and both of these options offer significant bonuses for end users.
There are implications when choosing free software which must be taken into consideration. In the case of a commercial application, technical support can be paid for as part of the software package. However, with OpenSource you are dependent on the growing web community and developers. As a lot of OpenSource software is relatively new, long established commercial software has a well-developed user community which in turn is supported and championed by the provider. This means that with commercial software someone has probably 'done it before'. In the case of OpenSource you may well be trying these applications for the first time.
Before implementing an open-source GIS, there are a few questions to consider:
- How is the data to be stored, either as flat-file on a local drive or server or in a spatial database?
- Who is the intended audience for the final output?
- What data you hold that is already spatial?
- What data do you need to link to a spatial data set?
- What questions do you need to answer?
- What level of mapping detail you require; for example, consider what scale the data is viewed at and the granularity of the data required, for example, postcode unit vs. full postal address?
- Is there a need to capture and store spatial data?
- Do other users need to access the data, so is there a need to have a shared server or a local installation?
- How are the results going to be published, as static images or as live data on the web?
GIS components
A typical GIS comprises a number of elements which can be broken down into the following components:
Open-source GIS software infrastructure model
Data input – as data may not be available in a format that can be read by a particular GI application, a translator may be required to read data and convert it into a compatible format.
- Edonica provide a tool for viewing OS OpenData.
Data capture and maintenance – tools are required to enable users to capture and maintain their own data sets.
- Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) is a library of translation utilities for use with raster data.
- FWtools is a set of open source GI tools created by Frank Wamerdam for both Windows and Linux.
Data storage – this may be either as simple files in a directory or in a spatially enabled database.
- PostgreSQL is an OpenSource SQL database and has powerful spatial functionality when the PostGIS spatial extension is loaded. Connecting PostgreSQL is supported by a number of GIS including ArcGIS, MapInfo, CadCorp and QGIS.
- MySQL is an Oracle OpenSource data which has some spatial functions but is not yet fully supported by GIS software.
Data analysis – either using tools within a GIS or a spatial database.
- QGIS is probably the most popular open-source desktop GI application, with a range of tools for use in analysing spatial data.
- MapWindow is a GIS created by Idaho University.
- Geographic Resources Analysis Support System referred to as GRASS was originally created by the US Army. It has a wider range functions for spatial analytics.
Publishing mapping – either for viewing in a GIS or via a web browser.
As well as analysing your data with the GIS software mentioned above, these can also be used to publish the results of your analysis in a graphical format.
- Geoserver is an OpenSource server for sharing geospatial data across the web.
- GeoExt uses OpenLayers for the creation of powerful GIS apps.
- Mapserver for publishing spatial data and interactive mapping applications to the web.
It is also worth noting that commercial software will have a well-developed Graphical User Interface (GUI), in the case of some open-source applications, it may well be that unless a developer has seen the need to develop a GUI then none will exist. This could mean that using some OpenSource applications may require some detailed technical knowledge for users to be able to perform tasks which may be considered straightforward.

The First Word
Reimagining Today's Colleges
EARLIER THIS YEAR, President Obama spoke at the University of Texas at Austin about his higher education plans and referred to education as "the economic issue of our time." He explained, "It's an economic issue when the unemployment rate for folks who've never gone to college is almost double what it is for those who have gone to college. Education is an economic issue when nearly eight in 10 new jobs will require work force training or a higher education by the end of this decade."
It's clear that a college degree is increasingly an economic necessity. And CUNY's record enrollments demonstrate that students know this, as well; they are eager to get a high-quality education that will prepare them for an unforgiving job market.
At the same time, the country's public higher education system is facing economic issues of its own. A headline in The Chronicle of Higher Education earlier this year described the situation in stark terms: "State Cuts Are Pushing Public Colleges Into Peril." As the article pointed out, the recession has only worsened the trend of declining state spending on higher education -- at a time when many states are also experiencing significant population growth and enrollment increases. CUNY's senior colleges alone have sustained over $205 million in state budget cuts since 2009, while adding thousands more students.
Such circumstances provoke difficult questions: How will public colleges and universities be able to continue their historic mission of access and quality? How do we ensure that students can engage in a rich academic experience without shouldering an onerous tuition burden?
Across the country, public institutions are considering a variety of responses to such questions, including reducing the required number of credits, expanding the use of academic technology, increasing faculty teaching loads, outsourcing services and advocating for greater federal investment.
Two years ago, CUNY took the lead in bringing together a group of experienced public higher education leaders to discuss the state of the public mission in this changing economic environment and to advocate for stronger investment in public institutions. This fall, we will continue this crucial conversation in the hope of stimulating bold new approaches to our postsecondary enterprise. Hosted at CUNY's Graduate School of Journalism, our November summit, "Reimagining Public Higher Education," will ask system and institutional leaders from across the country, California to Florida, to re-envision traditional college education and rethink standard financial models -- all while maintaining the quality and access that are the hallmark of this country's celebrated public system.
In his remarks in Texas, President Obama was unequivocal about the essential role of education in our country: "If we're serious about making sure America's workers -- and America itself -- succeed in the 21st century, the single most important step we can take...is to make sure that every one of our young people has the best education that the world has to offer." Our challenge -- and our nation's challenge -- is to find the resources, ingenuity and will to take that important step.
-- Matthew Goldstein, Chancellor

Sorted by relevance. Sort by session.
14.25 ▶ Questioner: How do you perform your normal service? How have you normally given the Law of One over the last 2,300 years? How have you normally given this [to] Earth people?
Ra: I am Ra. We have used channels such as this one, but in most cases the channels feel inspired by dreams and visions without being aware, consciously, of our identity or existence. This particular group has been accentuatedly trained to recognize such contact. This makes this group able to be aware of a focal or vibrational source of information.
75.33 ▶ Questioner: You mentioned in an earlier session that the hair was an antenna. Could you expand on that statement as to how that works?
Ra: I am Ra. It is difficult to so do due to the metaphysical nature of this antenna-effect. Your physics are concerned with measurements in your physical complex of experience. The metaphysical nature of the contact of those in time/space is such that the hair, as it has significant length, becomes as a type of electrical battery which stays charged and tuned and is then able to aid contact even when there are small anomalies in the contact.
73.2 ▶ Questioner: Has the banishing ritual that we have performed been helpful for this contact?
Ra: I am Ra. The ritual described has gained with each working in making efficacious the purity of contact needed not only for the Ra contact but for any working of the adept.
33.2 ▶ Questioner: Can you give us advice on how to maintain the best possible condition for maintaining contact?
Ra: I am Ra. We have given information concerning the proper nurturing of this channel. We, therefore, repeat ourselves only in two ways in general. Firstly, we suggest that rather than being, shall we say, brave and ignoring a physical complex weakness distortion, it is good to share this distortion with the group and thus perhaps, shall we say, remove one opportunity for contact which is very wearying to the instrument, in order that another opportunity might come about in which the instrument is properly supported.
Secondly, the work begun in harmony may continue. Harmony, thanksgiving, and praise of opportunities and of the Creator: these are your protection. These are our suggestions. We cannot be specific for your free will is of the essence in this contact. As we said, we only speak to this subject because of our grasp of your orientation towards long-term maintenance of this contact. This is acceptable to us.
80.21 ▶ Questioner: Then I would guess that the twenty-first archetype would represent the contact with intelligent infinity. Is that correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct, although one may also see the reflection of this contact, as well, as the contact with intelligent energy which is the Universe or, as you have called it somewhat provincially, the World.
11.20 ▶ Questioner: How do the crusaders pass on their concepts to the incarnate individuals on Earth?
Ra: I am Ra. There are two main ways, just as there are two main ways of, shall we say, polarizing towards service to others. There are those mind/body/spirit complexes upon your plane who do exercises and perform disciplines in order to seek contact with sources of information and power leading to the opening of the gate to intelligent infinity. There are others whose vibratory complex is such that this gateway is opened and contact with total service to self with its primal distortion of manipulation of others is then afforded with little or no difficulty, no training, and no control.
79.4 ▶ Questioner: In that case, she would like to know the function of the energy transfer during the session.
Ra: I am Ra. The function of this energy transfer is a most helpful one in that it serves to strengthen the shuttle through which the instreaming contact is received. The contact itself will monitor the condition of the instrument and cease communication when the distortions of the instrument begin to fluctuate towards the distortions of weakness or pain. However, while the contact is ongoing the strength of the channel through which this contact flows may be aided by the energy transfer of which you spoke.
100.4 ▶ Questioner: Thank you. I feel obligated to ask the next, somewhat transient, question because of a request from Colonel Stevens. I also, for my own edification, [would like to] better understand the effect of the quarantine and first distortion. Would Ra comment on the purpose of the so-called Pleiades contact in Switzerland with Billy Meier— an entity known as Semjase and others.
Ra: I am Ra. It is not our practice to judge the value of a contact of metaphysical origin. We cannot confirm the contact referred to by the questioner as pure Confederation contact. However, we might suggest that there is some positive material within the recorded transcript of converse during this contact. As we have spoken previously to the various characteristics of so-called mixed contact, we shall not repeat, but note that all communication is of the One Infinite Creator in its infinite distortions.
50.4 ▶ Questioner: Could you give an example of how an entity sets up a condition for attracting a particular experiential catalyst and how that catalyst then is provided or is learned.
Ra: I am Ra. Such an example may be given.
57.29 ▶ Questioner: How did this learning process take place in— learning or teaching— take place in the pyramid?
Ra: I am Ra. How does teach/learning and learn/teaching ever take place?
29.29 ▶ Questioner: Is it possible for you to tell me how a crystal is used by an entity who has satisfactorily achieved necessary violet-ray qualification, I will say; how it is possible for the entity to use the crystal or how he should use the crystal?
Ra: I am Ra. The gateway to intelligent infinity is born of, shall we say, the sympathetic vibration in balanced state accompanying the will to serve, the will to seek.
8.30 ▶ Questioner: Is this the type of craft that Dan Frye was transported in?
Ra: I am Ra. The one known as Daniel was, in thought-form, transported by Confederation thought-form vehicular illusion in order to give this mind/body/spirit complex data so that we might see how this type of contact aided your people in the uncovering of the intelligent infinity behind the illusion of limits.
63.4 ▶ Questioner: Is the necessity for the instrument to go to the bathroom several times before a session due to the psychic attack?
Ra: I am Ra. In general this is incorrect. The instrument is eliminating from the body complex the distortion leavings of the material which we use for contact. This occurs variably, sometimes beginning before contact, other workings this occurring after the contact.
In this particular working this entity is experiencing the aforementioned difficulties causing the intensification of that particular distortion/condition.
21.21 ▶ Questioner: I see. I want to clear up a point here, then. When was the first contact by the Orion group? In years?
Ra: I am Ra. As we have said, the Orion group attempted contact approximately six zero thousand [60,000] of your years in the past, as you measure time.
81.23 ▶ Questioner: Just… it's unimportant, but just roughly how many other of these galaxies has Ra, shall we say, traveled to?
Ra: I am Ra. We have opened our hearts in radiation of love to the entire creation. Approximately 90 percent of the creation is at some level aware of the sending and able to reply. All of the infinite Logoi are one in the consciousness of love. This is the type of contact which we enjoy rather than travel.
18.15 ▶ Questioner: Can you tell me what these genetic changes were and how they were brought about?
Ra: I am Ra. Some of these genetic changes were in a form similar to what you call the cloning process. Thus, entities incarnated in the image of the Yahweh entities. The second was a contact of the nature you know as sexual, changing the mind/body/spirit complex through the natural means of the patterns of reproduction devised by the intelligent energy of your physical complex.
87.10 ▶ Questioner: It seems, though, that in the case of many UFO contacts that have occurred on this planet that there must be some knowledge and use of the first distortion, in that the fourth-density entities have carefully remained aloof and anonymous, you might say, for the most part, so that no proof in a concrete way of their existence is too obvious. How are they oriented with respect to this type of contact?
Ra: I am Ra. We misperceived your query, thinking it was directed towards this particular type of contact. The nature of the fourth-density's observance of the free will distortion, while pursuing the seeding of the third-density thought patterns, is material which has already been covered. That which can be offered of the negatively oriented information is offered. It is altered to the extent that the entity receiving such negative information is of positive orientation. Thus many such contacts are of a mixed nature.
74.3 ▶ Questioner: Could you please describe the trance state as I am somewhat confused with respect to how, when in trance, pain can affect the instrument since I was of the opinion that there would be no feeling of pain of the bodily complex in the trance state?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. The instrument has no awareness of this or other sensations. However, we of Ra use the yellow-ray activated physical complex as a channel through which to speak. As the mind/body/spirit complex of the instrument leaves this physical shell in our keeping it is finely adjusted to our contact.
However, the distortion which you call pain, when sufficiently severe, mitigates against proper contact and, when the increased distortion is violent, can cause the tuning of the channel to waver. This tuning must then be corrected which we may do as the instrument offers us this opportunity freely.
53.17 ▶ Questioner: Then in general I could say that if an individual has a "close encounter" with a UFO or any other type of experience that seems to be UFO-related, he must look to the heart of the encounter and the effect upon him to determine whether it was Orion or Confederation contact. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. If there is fear and doom, the contact was quite likely of a negative nature. If the result is hope, friendly feelings, and the awakening of a positive feeling of purposeful service to others, the marks of Confederation contact are evident.
80.22 ▶ Questioner: Then by this contact also with intelligent energy can you give me an example of what this would be for both, for the contact with intelligent infinity and intelligent energy? Could you give me an example of what type of experience this would result in, if that's at all possible?
Ra: I am Ra. This shall be the last query of this working of full length. We have discussed the possibilities of contact with intelligent energy, for this energy is the energy of the Logos, and thus it is the energy which heals, builds, removes, destroys, and transforms all other-selves as well as the self.
The contact with intelligent infinity is most likely to produce an unspeakable joy in the entity experiencing such contact. If you wish to query in more detail upon this subject, we invite you to do so in another working. Is there a brief query before we close this working?
12.5 ▶ Questioner: I didn't quite understand. How does the Confederation stop the Orion chariot from coming through the quarantine? What actions do…
Ra: I am Ra. There is contact at the level of light-form or lightbody-being depending upon the vibratory level of the guardian. These guardians sweep reaches of your Earth's energy fields attempting to be aware of any entities approaching. An entity which is approaching is hailed in the name of the One Creator. Any entity thus hailed is bathed in love/light and will of free will obey the quarantine due to the power of the Law of One.
16.19 ▶ Questioner: If this entity was positively oriented, how was the Orion group able to contact him?
Ra: I am Ra. This was an intensive, shall we say, battleground between positively oriented forces of Confederation origin and negatively oriented sources. The one called Moishe was open to impression and received the Law of One in its most simple form. However, the information became negatively oriented due to his people's pressure to do specific physical things in the third-density planes. This left the entity open for the type of information and philosophy of a self-service nature.
13.14 ▶ Questioner: Could you tell me how the individualized portion of intelligent infinity created our galaxy [inaudible] that the same portion created our planetary system and, if so, how this came about?
Ra: I am Ra. We may have misperceived your query. We were under the distortion/impression that we had responded to this particular query. Would you restate the query?
37.4 ▶ Questioner: I have been very hesitant to ask certain questions for fear that they would be regarded, as I regard them, as questions of unimportance or too great a specificity and thereby reduce our contact with you. In order to disseminate some of the information that I consider to be of extreme importance; that is, the non-transient type of information, information having to do with the evolution of mind, body, and spirit, it seems almost necessary in our society to include information that is of little value simply because that's how our… our society works and… how the system of distribution appraises that which is offered for distribution. Could you comm— Will… will you comment on this problem that I have?
Ra: I am Ra. We comment as follows: It is quite precisely correct that the level and purity of this contact is dependent upon the level and purity of information sought. Thusly, the continued requests for specific information from this particular source is deleterious to the substance of your purpose. Moreover, as we scanned your mind to grasp your situation as regards the typescript of some of our words, we found that you had been criticized for the type of language construction used to convey data. Due to our orientation with regard to data, even the most specifically answered question would be worded by our group in such a way as to maximize the accuracy of the nuances of the answer. This, however, mitigates against what your critic desires in the way of simple, lucid prose. More than this we cannot say. These are our observations of your situation. What you wish to do is completely your decision and we remain at your service in whatever way we may be without breaking the Way of Confusion.
62.11 ▶ Questioner: Who would the appropriate healers be, and how would we bring them in contact with the instrument?
Ra: I am Ra. There are four. The difficulty being at all noticed as bodily distortion, the one known as Don and the one known as Jim may work upon the instrument's bodily complex by means of the practices which are developing in each entity. Given persistence of distortion, the one known as Stuart shall be seen. Given the continued difficulty past the point of one of your cycles called the fortnight, the one known as Douglas shall be seen.
11.18 ▶ Questioner: Then we have crusaders from Orion coming to this planet for mind control purposes. How do they do this?
Ra: As all, they follow the Law of One observing free will. Contact is made with those who call. Those then upon the planetary sphere act much as do you to disseminate the attitudes and philosophy of their particular understanding of the Law of One which is service to self. These become the elite. Through these, the attempt begins to create a condition whereby the remainder of the planetary entities are enslaved by their own free will.
1.11 Questioner: Will you be available for communication? Can we call on you in the future?
Ra: I am Ra. We have good contact with this instrument because of her recent experiences with trance. She is to be able to communicate our thoughts in your future. However, we advise care in disturbing the channel for a few moments and then the proper procedure for aiding an instrument who has, to some extent, the need of re-entering the mind/body/spirit complex which the instrument has chosen for the life experience of this time/space. Do you understand how to nurture this instrument?
25.2 ▶ Questioner: The second question the instrument requested was: How may I best revitalize myself not only now but in the future?
Ra: I am Ra. This instrument is aware of the basic needs of its constitution, those being meditation, acceptance of limitations, experiences of joy through association with others and with the beauty as of the singing, and the exercising with great contact, whenever possible, with the life forces of second density, especially those of trees; this entity also needing to be aware of the moderate but steady intake of foodstuffs, exercise being suggested at a fairly early portion of the day and at a later portion of the day before the resting.
53.8 ▶ Questioner: Could you give me an example of one of these meetings between a Wanderer and a social memory complex as to what the Wanderer would experience?
Ra: I am Ra. One such example of which you are familiar is that of the one known as Morris.* In this case the previous contact which other entities in this entity's circle of friends experienced was negatively oriented. However, you will recall that the entity, Morris, was impervious to this contact and could not see, with the physical optical apparatus, this contact.
However, the inner voice alerted the one known as Morris to go by itself to another place and there an entity with the thought-form shape and appearance of the other contact appeared and gazed at this entity, thus awakening in it the desire to seek the truth of this occurrence and of the experiences of its incarnation in general.
The feeling of being awakened or activated is the goal of this type of contact. The duration and imagery used varies depending upon the subconscious expectations of the Wanderer which is experiencing this opportunity for activation.
100.15 ▶ Questioner: I will save that for next session and I will ask if there is anything we can do to make the instrument more comfortable or improve the contact?
Ra: I am Ra. All is well. The appurtenances are most conscientiously placed. We thank this diligent group. There is much greater distortion towards harmony at this asking and we join you in praise and thanksgiving. This is always the greatest boon to improvement of the contact, for it is the harmony of the group which supports this contact.
I am Ra. I leave you in the love and the light of the One. Go forth, therefore, rejoicing in the power and in the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.

Thus, zs really needs rs_wait_until_sent to ensure we switch any modes at the time transmitter is empty aned we don't get any garabge on the terminal. I'd like to note you switch from easy reproducable problem to hard reproducable one. BTW, that's the only reason I didn't send new patch for Baget yet, zs driver still needs a lot of hacking before it becomes functional. Regards, Gleb.

Man, that was a quick one, a very short and busy month let to some disappointing results but lets not beat around the bush and dive right in.
Looking at the Instagram items, posts and followers were close to the target, again it was a too little too late scenario and its hard to make up for the days with no posts. Overall, I'm not disappointed with this one, I put a lot of effort into it and it was very close just didn't want to compromise my content for hitting the target, but I may have already… more on that later. Moving to the blog objectives, 40 blog posts and 400 visitors, yea neither of those were going to happen. Had I continued pushing the paid advertising as hard as I did the first half of February then maybe, but without that the views are organic and very low. As I have said before, writing blog posts requires a lot from me, I must be in the mood and mindset to write these up and if its not there then the writing quality is trash and it's a slow process.
Related to the blog is the mailing list, and I looked at a plugin for it on WordPress, but I don't think it was ever implemented, at least when I went on the site I never found a form to fill out. Again, related to the blog, affiliate sales still have never took off, of course its much harder with low traffic on the site. Same applies to the Shopify referrals, I had 10 clicks through the site and I never had one go through with the full signup process.
Changing gears again we look at the two book goals, Sell or be Sold, and Rental Property Empire. I finished and posted on Sell or Be Sold, terrific book, great content, it may have persuaded me to take a sales internship this summer, updates to come soon on that. Here is the link for the article though, check it out! http://bsquared.website/2018/02/28/sell-or-be-sold-how-to-get-your-way-in-business-and-in-life-grant-cardone/ I just started Rental Property Empire tonight actually, so far, its pretty basic information I already knew hopefully it picks up in fresh content though, approximately 15% through it.
Last two girls include credit cards and interviews. Despite the check marks the credit cards didn't get paid off the way I wanted them to so that was rather disappointing, as far as the interviews, the Spring Career Fair at my school was rough this year. Lots of full-time and co-op opportunities but not much for summer interns so that wasn't good. I did get 2 interviews though, one for the sales rep and one for a steel company. There may be more opportunities coming up but that's all I have right now.
About the Instagram issue noted above, I have two screenshots from my account tonight. You can see there is a strong inverse correlation between action and discovery and I don't know why. I have been posting frequently (probably too much but was going for the goal) and I think that may have something to do with it. But I am looking for more link clicks, engagement, and followers. I am getting them slowly but surely, but I would like to master Instagram to deliver the best results for my blog.
Looking forward March is a crazy month at my school. I have 2 tests next week, St. Pat's, another testing week, then spring break. My philanthropy week is also soon after in April and my team and I are putting in tons of work lately to get that all ready to go. I have made accommodations to my goals by covering the whole month of March in this next set. Hopefully I can deliver stellar results to make up for the last couple disappointing performances. At first I set the bar relatively low for my goals, the more I looked at them the easier they looked and I decided I needed to keep pushing myself so I cranked them back up to a tougher target.
As always let me know what you think, and if you have any suggestions or comments those are always appreciated.
Until next time,

Topic: Cultural Heritage beyond First Generation
What do I think about the Indian culture? I think that the Indian culture is a great culture because they do great dances, great food and wear very nice clothes and this is what I think about the Indian culture.
The Indian culture matters to me a lot because we do very important things that help us when we grow up and for other people who we love.
I think I will carry this forward because I know that everything I learned in my class is very important and if I carry this forward I will know tons of stuff about the Indian culture.
Hopefully I will help in the Indian culture and follow my mom's footsteps because if I do everything will be great and just like the same way it is now.
In the future I think that there will be tons of Indian temples. They will be very good temples but I think that the best temple to go to is the temple that I am at and that's my opinion.
The Indian temple needs to do maybe an adult joke and a kids joke because if you don't let the kids laugh then the only fun thing for them is the dance they do. The kids that don't do dances they will be even more bored about the program. The other thing they could change is that the Indian classes could go to the mandir to say the gods and come back to the classroom to say something about each one of the gods. This is what I think they should change to help the Indian temple.

Topic: Cultural Heritage beyond First Generation
What do you think about the Indian Culture?
I am proud of the Indian culture. I feel good about it when I follow it and talk about. There are many ways you can follow it and a few examples are going to religious class and wearing Indian clothing and one of the most important one is praying to God and it makes me enlightened. So those are some ways that help you preach the Indian culture. I feel that all my spirits are lifted away and I am blessed.
How much does it matter to you?
The Indian culture is like my life. If I am an American citizen it doesn't mean I don't care about it. If it was a scale of one to ten and one doesn't mean you care and ten means it is a lot to you I would say ten. I talk about the Indian culture at school and people love it. This culture is one of the most important things in life.
Do you think that you will carry this forward?
I will carry the culture in many generations. I will tell my kids about it and make sure they'll follow it. Also where ever I go I will tell a person and I will not care if I get humiliated. When I go off my family will carry it on. This culture will always be in my hands and will never be let go off.
Would you be interested in actively participating in community organizations?
I would always be interested in actively participating in community organizations. If someone asked me I would say yes and also I would ask them myself. You can participate in helping kids read in religious places and you can participate in dance programs and I will give money and those are ways you do stuff for the community. Have you guys heard of something like if you do or give something you will get something ten times better, but you shouldn't just do it for that. So you should always be willing to participate in community services.
What will be the future of our religious institutions in the USA?
In the future I think the religious places will have developed better. There will be more priests and joyful souls. People maybe more devoted to God and more institutions will be built. And there will be religious classes. People will be happy and more interested in the future because of the places.
What needs to be done so that you will be encouraged to get involved?
There are many needs to be encouraged to get involved. Some ways are learning classical music and dance. There are always many other ways. And one important one is preaching about the Bhagavat Geetha and that is like our Bible. So we all shall be encouraged and we also should do it to other noble souls and we will always are needed to be involved.

I think it is a culture worth learning about.
The Indian culture matters a lot to me but is not my main focus. But I do use some aspects of this religion or culture in everyday life.
Yes, I would pass the Indian culture down to other generations and would urge them to pass it down.
Yes, if I have time.
I think if we expand we will have a better future. Also expanding would draw in newcoming people that would like to study our religion and would strengthen the belief.
We need bigger space, more religious teaching and more religious functions.

Topic: ICAB
If I became an ICAB president then I would continue with the functions they have already. I would continue having Diwali programs and the other ones they have. It is a good idea for kids to get involved in Indian cultural functions. ICAB encourages kids to participate in the programs by dancing, singing, acting in plays, and other things. If I became the ICAB president, I would ask for feedback from the kids and see what they call "fun". I would want all the kids to enjoy all activities ICAB does and get more involved in it. ICAB is a wonderful committee and should continue with their activities so that in the future when I become an ICAB president I can continue with the tradition and make it more enjoyable.

Better interaction with public!
Given the adoption rate of social media and web 2.0 concepts in communicating with people en mass, in my humble opinion the government could continuously release non-sensitive data to the public and showcase some of the most useful applications. Furthermore, the public voice needs to be heard on developing themes on what could be done with the data. Applications addressing these themes need to be used as a two way communication ...more »

So declared Todd Belcher, our inimitable director of customer success, when he joined the Digital Analytics Power Hour Podcast for their first episode of the new year (minute 47:37 in the record or transcript if you want proof that you really did hear it here first).
Listening to this podcast was sort of meta for us on the marketing team – more so than usual. We market a marketing tech product while using that product in order do said marketing – all while listening to the guy who helps other marketers use that product do their own marketing. Insert dizzy face emoji here: ?
It was also super interesting to hear the questions that (brilliant analytics professionals and) hosts Michael Helbling and Tim Wilson have about customer data platforms, as well as the way they worked through where CDPs fit in the landscape and in the marketer's stack. A lot of the questions (e.g. "How is it different from a DMP?" or "Isn't it like my analytics tool?") are ones we've heard and answered (here and here, respectively) before.
Point 1: A CDP relative to DMPs and CRM
Michael asked, "Does the CDP fall somewhere in this weak spot that brings both [CRM and DMPs] together or no?" on the premise that CRM records the known individual while a DMP is focused on media and audience.
Todd got into a really nuanced answer that I won't regurgitate here, but the idea of putting at least part of a CDP's purpose on a continuum of customer relationship management and data management platforms is pretty cool. We've talked a ton about how CDPs are not either of those platforms, but in terms of capabilities it's a solid, base-level framework to consider the CDP as the translator between the marketing activities that take place in the anonymous and the known domains. That's not where the functionality stops, but it's a helpful starting point for sure.
Point 2: Known customers with anonymous data
I listened to this on the train during my commute and nearly burst into applause at back-and-forth on this topic. Michael posited, "Known customers but anonymous data, and so it's potentially known customers, everything that you're collecting, you're saying, "It may be anonymous now, but I have a pathway to where you would become known?"" Or, as Tim put it his way, "Do you have to be a customer to be in a CDP or no? You just have to maybe, gonna be a customer?"
That pathway is the magic of a CDP: the ability to know a distinct person regardless of whether or not they're known uniquely. If you have interacted with the brand, you have a profile that identifies you and your behavior as distinctly you – even if you never link your identity to an email address or customer ID, for example. Because maybe, one day, you're gonna be a customer. Or maybe not. But we're still glad to know you. Tim said it better:
In essence, instead of bringing in a customer ID, you're building a customer ID that may or may not have a customer attached to it. So it could be like, "Hey, cookie 123 has visited us five times and never purchase so all I have is just their behavioral information but they match all of these characteristics or attributes that I defined at this segment. So now I'm gonna just keep putting them in this segment the next time they come to the website."
Point 3: Activated and real-time by nature
Todd made two points during the discussion that aren't features of a CDP but rather fundamental traits: that it functions in real-time and that the data is activated by nature (both right around the 16-minute mark in the podcast). Not all platforms that identify as CDPs are as emphatic about these points as we are but it's pretty hard to get around either while making an argument for a CDP being a new, essential solution. (More on this here.)
Why real time matters, as summarized by Tim: "Adobe has a marketing cloud visitor ID, so it's trying to be their bridge over top of everything. And in a certain sense, it could be thought of as a customer data platform. However, there is something really key there which is worth noting, I'm sure Adobe loves that I'm gonna bring this up right now, but it takes about 24 hours for attributes or segments you create to be available on the other tools. So this is where that real-time piece that I asked about earlier makes a big difference potentially for marketers 'cause if I find out something new about you as a visitor today, the first time I can target content at you… So like I learned something about you via Adobe Analytics, then tomorrow, I can use Adobe Target to content target you but I couldn't do it on your next visit 30 minutes from now."
(We'd also add that the Adobe ID doesn't exist out of the box with the platform – it's a services offering that you need to pay for and create, limited to the Adobe ecosystem. But I digress.)
And why the data being activated by nature, by default, distinguishes the old from the new. Again, Tim: "In a lot of sense it's like, as marketers, we've been doing this kind of work for a long time in terms of trying to integrate, back-end customer data with sort of digital behavioral data and building logic, and stuff like that. We've just been doing it in different platforms of what's now called the CDP…[meaning] it's basically now accessible. I can now hook into this in all the different ways."
If you're a marketer with an interest in analytics, customer data, or marketing technology, this is 50ish minutes well-worth your time to listen – or at minimum, read through the whole transcript because there are many nuggets of wisdom in there not to be missed.
Here's to the year of the CDP!

Outstanding Innovators Under 35: Sundar Iyer
An engineer on Cisco's data center team, Sundar Iyer, was recently recognized by Technology Review Magazine as an outstanding innovator under the age of 35 for his work on scaling router performance, a topic he first began exploring while an doctoral student at Stanford University. So what problem does Sundar's work address? With the growth in real-time applications such as voice, video, distributed computing and gaming, there's a growing expectation from end users that their experiences with these applications will be high quality and high performing (e.g., high definition images, great sound quality, no lag in conversations). Yet, if the memory on a router (which is used to temporarily store the video, voice and other data that is being transmitted) cannot support the speeds required to provide these quality voice/video experiences, then we cannot scale the performance of a router beyond 10-40 Gb/s, and the router performance becomes very unpredictable. For example, on a 40Gb/s link a stream of video information can arrive approximately every 10 nano-seconds (this is roughly a million times faster than the fastest human reaction time), and commodity memory cannot be accessed at such fast speeds. For example, imagine the difference between police dispatcher A who's juggling calls for many small robberies and police dispatcher B who has one call come in on a large bank heist. Clearly, police dispatcher B will be able to give the most accurate time when the cops will arrive. Similarly if one cannot predict when one's voice or video conferencing information gets dispatched by a router, the performance of these real-time applications will suffer. For example, the quality of a conversation degrades and becomes formal and stilted when the voice delay experienced, is more than 150 milli-seconds.It does not appear that this problem will go away anytime soon; commodity memory is built for use in computers so that they can store more data, rather than be accessed at very high speeds. And as networking speeds increase this problem will become progressively worse.Sundar's work has allowed fast routers to overcome this memory performance problem using commodity memory. As a consequence the router can provide a high-level of guarantee on the performance of end-user applications. For the next generation of Internet applications (such as an orchestra whose musicians are in remote locations, or a doctor who performs surgery remotely using robotic sensors) this is of paramount importance. Expanding more upon innovation in the area of network memory technology that was recently recognized by Technology Magazine (published by MIT), here are a few examples of how this work impacts us: 1. Cnn.com [link: http://edition.cnn.com/2008/TECH/08/18/cyber.warfare/?imw=Y&iref=mpstoryemail] had an article earlier this week, on the threat of cyber attacks. While most attacks have been focused on computers, servers and router control infrastructure, router hardware is not immune from them — memory and interconnect (I/O) performance gaps can be exploited by a coordinated set of adversaries who may send packets in a specific order or of a specific type for which the hardware is inefficient. As an example, assume that an adversary can predict that a particular segment of memory will be used by the router, based on a specific pattern. The pattern can be repeated multiple times, causing the memory resource to be overwhelmed over time. Other similar inefficiencies may be exploited to further degrade router performance. As an analogy, imagine a large retailer flooded with customers who clogged up customer billing counters and purchased trivial items worth less than a few cents each. This would overwhelm the billing personnel and their systems. While this is hard to do in reality, on the Internet such performance attacks are easier to orchestrate. Network memory technology makes the memory and I/O 100% efficient, and provides a robust protection against cyber attacks, which exploit such inefficiencies. 2. Ikea, the Swedish furniture retailer, is successful in shipping and delivering furniture (or varying sizes) by packing them efficiently. Customers can assemble them later when they finally reach their home premises. Network memory technology performs a similar function on packets, by packing and unpacking them as required. The advantage of efficiently transferring packets is that a router can be built with a smaller number of components and interfaces. Another advantage is power, which has become the number one issue in data centers (also see a related blog posting on power on Aug 12th,"Green as a Journey not a Destination"). If packets are efficiently transferred, the worst case power consumed is reduced. Since it can easily take up to 2 watts of power to cool every watt of power consumed (due to potential cooling inefficiencies), this results in additional savings for the data center. Also the capacity that a router can support (for a given area) can be increased because the components and chips used to build the router are smaller and more efficient.
