Last week, I discussed the success story of Stephanie Meyer and her Twilight series of vampire romance novels. Meyer's use of social media played a role in the successful promotion of books that have sold over 25 million copies and that led to the blockbuster adaptation of her first book as a motion picture.
There is no doubt that Meyer's use of social media is worth noting and exploring more deeply, but for those who would hold it up as evidence that social media can be a panacea for any person or company looking to market themselves or their product, there are some caveats.
Unlike most advertisers, Meyer was promoting her life's passion. Her successful use of social media was, in many ways, predicated on the fact that she didn't appear to be using social media in a commercial fashion. It didn't matter if her efforts reached 10 people or 1,000. Cost and ROI weren't issues - she was investing her time freely and she almost certainly wasn't measuring the outcome of her efforts as nearly all businesses are naturally required to do.
In other words, to Meyer, metrics didn't matter. Unfortunately, metrics to matter when dealing with advertisers and the lack of established metrics is one of social media's biggest challenges in going from novelty to necessity.
Let's look at the metrics that matter most:
Usage. If social media is all about 'engagement', as many argue, how does one measure engagement on social media properties? Is it registered users? Active users? Pageviews? Application installs?
In other words, when an advertiser buys a social media ad campaign, what exactly is the advertiser getting?
There's really no consensus on this and seemingly simple metrics like 'registered users' have, interestingly, become far more confusing over the years.
Case in point - Circle of Moms, a new social network for moms. Last week, TechCrunch reported that "The site, launched in October 2008, has already grown to over 850,000 registered users."
That wasn't entirely accurate. Circle of Moms is a Facebook application that launched a standalone website. Its 'users' can interact with both. All indicators are that the vast majority of Circle of Moms' users are interacting with the two-month-old Facebook application - not the website at CircleOfMoms.com.
Yet because Facebook has restrictions on the amount of data that applications can collect, how do we define (and value) Circle of Moms' 'users'? Are they even really Circle of Moms' users? A media buyer is going to have a tough time answering these questions, which is problematic if he's looking to spend money from anywhere other than the smaller budget usually allocated to experimental ad campaigns.
Cost. Cost is typically an easy metric to define and measure. If I buy 10 million banner ad impressions at a $3 CPM, my campaign cost is $30,000, not including creative, set-up and a handful of other things that are easy to put a number on and therefore to budget for.
Social media is a bit different. A company might spend a few thousand dollars setting up a blog, $50,000 setting up a Facebook page or a whopping $0 setting up a Twitter account. But what's the cost of writing blog posts over the long haul, maintaining a Facebook page or tweeting on a regular basis?
More importantly, how many blog posts do you need to post to make the exercise effective? How much effort needs to be invested in your Facebook page to see a return? How much 'engagement' must you strive to create on Twitter to realize some positive effect? Advertisers are not interested in simply 'getting started' - they want to know how much they need to invest so as to produce a successful outcome.
From this perspective, measuring and projecting cost is often difficult to do in social media since the greatest cost of social media is time. Time invested is often variable as is how it is utilized. Unless you have an employee dedicated to social media and his salary is factored in to the equation, cost is very ethereal and is usually greater than one might assume given the relatively low 'startup costs' of social media.
ROI. These three letters have probably caused more headaches for those in social media than anything else.
Some once pitched social media as having the potential to be a direct sales revolution - advertise your product and service and let your message spread virally from friend to friend. If one friend 'recommends' your product, for instance, you're much more likely to see other friends make a purchase. It hasn't quite worked out that way.
So now social media is primarily pitched as a branding medium. Start a 'conversation' and in the process, you'll build a 'relationship', which will in turn help your brand gain credibility and stay relevant. Eventually something good will happen.
Some social media proponents essentially argue that since advertisers waste lots of money on 'branding' in other mediums, holding social media to a higher standard is unfair.
There's a problem with this, of course, and that's the fact that 'branding' in other mediums has been correlated to sales. Take television - one of the reasons television advertising has held up better than expected is that it's a known quantity. Over the decades, advertisers have been able to correlate television advertising directly with increased sales.
Until social media finds a way to measure some of its effects directly on the bottom line, ROI will continue to be one metric that is a liability, not an asset.
At the end of the day, the importance of metrics is crucial to the development of any new advertising medium. Without metrics, advertisers obviously have no way to easily evaluate what they're buying, how much their campaigns will cost and how their success will be evaluated.
It's important to remember that in the advertising world, where billions of dollars are managed by ad agencies who are basically instructed to spend money efficiently, knowing how to evaluate what's being purchased, project cost and measure success is absolutely crucial to the economics of doing business and getting deals done.
Just as a venture capitalist with a $500mn fund can't invest a few hundred thousand dollars in a couple thousand startups, a media buyer can't invest huge ad budgets across lots of social media campaigns that are individually 'unique.'
Right now, there is still far too much debate over metrics in the social media realm. There are no 'standards' and oftentimes, social media proponents argue that advertisers need to 'change their thinking.' That doesn't cut it. Social media practitioners need to define what advertisers are buying, how much it'll cost and how they'll be able to measure the return.
Until they do this, social media will remain an interesting but confusing novelty that may get some money from experimental ad budgets but won't get money from the ad budgets that can make the medium.
Unfortunately, in this recession, those experimental ad budgets are already being cut. If social media is to survive this serious downturn and emerge as the robust advertising medium it was supposed to become, proponents had better start focusing on the metrics. Find the metrics, find the money.

I wish I knew more about how the TV guys measured sales driven by their advertising. I should probably do some more research. I talked about measuring social media at the Online Information Show in London last week - there certainly seemed to be a lot of interest, so I'm looking forward to seeing progress in these areas.
Excellent analysis.
I agree that social media platforms need to offer clear metrics -- but I also think advertisers do need to change their thinking a bit.
A social media page is a website page. Can't marketers treat it like an other web page, identify the goals and measure success in our standard analytics packages? We can see who has come to us from a social media site, what they did when they arrived. That feels like metrics to me.
Doug: thanks for your comment. Sorry I didn't catch it sooner. I think you make a valid point. Two observations:
1. I think a lot of the vagaries of social media have been created in response to the fact that social media campaigns don't produce great results as measured by standard metrics.
For instance, when it comes to Facebook ad campaigns, all but a handful of the stories I've read or people I've spoken to report paltry click-thru rates. Obviously, if the user action against which you measure ROI requires a visit to your website, this is problematic and it makes it difficult for you to use your standard analytics package to measure results.
So I'd argue that quite a bit of the social media BS about 'engagement' and 'conversations' is not really honest but rather has been created to mask the fact that these campaigns simply don't produce tangible results.
If I run a small agency and sell a social media campaign to a client and that client tracks only a few hundred visitors to its website and sees lower-than-average conversions amongst the referred visitors, I can do one of two things: admit that the campaign was a failure or, in an attempt to keep a client, tell the client that he's getting something else from the campaign that's a lot harder to immediately measure in a tangible fashion. We all know what many agencies will do (and not necessarily out of maliciousness).
2. When it comes to media buyers changing their thinking, I think many are more open than they're often given credit for. I'd actually say that in my experience some are a little too open-minded.
Unfortunately, media buyers aren't always geniuses even for those who are really on the ball, they can't be expected to know everything, especially when it comes to something that they have no previous exposure to.
Individuals and companies selling social media campaigns need to educate their clients and prospective clients, help them understand what it is they're buying, walk them through best practices for campaign management, tell them how they should be measuring outcomes, etc.
Selling advertising is really no different than selling cars or computers. The average consumer knows what a car or computer does but if you walk into a car dealership or electronics retailer, you're inevitably going to see salespeople explaining why a specific car or computer is a good choice for an undecided consumer. What's the value proposition? Why is this purchase a good fit for the buyer? How is it going to benefit the buyer? How can the buyer do something specific with it?
It's true that social media does play an important role in helping authors get noticed and build an audience but to say that this alone will help sell millions of books is quite simply not true.

Ouch! There's a Pea Under the Saddle! (Lesson 2 of 3)
Lesson 5 of 16
Objective: SWBAT recount a fable from a diverse culture, inferring events and determining the theme of the story.
- The Cowboy and the Black-Eyed Pea by Tony Johnston
- Lesson vocabulary words from the Reading/Writing word wall:inference, theme, schema, evidence, version, fable
- Set up the whiteboard
- The Cowboy and the Pea Powerpoint
- construction paper rectangles (same length but various heights) for the kids and a 9x12 piece of construction paper (envision a saddle with blankets underneath-see completed project)
- Making Inferences poster (I used this throughout my inferencing unit)
- Inference Starters poster
I chose the twist on this classic story because the themes and characters repeat throughout literature. My kids need to know the classics and how those plot lines and ideas are part of literature's rich history. Many of my kids knew the traditional version of this story, but loved this comparison. The vocabulary and 'slang' cowboy language are more difficult so I read it aloud to the kids. My goal here is inferring - I want the kids to make conclusions about what they see and read and support their inferences.
This is the second in the series of inference lessons where I compare this fable. The other 2 lessons include Ouch There's a Pea Under My Mattress and Ouch What Is That Pea Thinking? These lessons all address how to infer with scaffolding skills of using an inference starter and leading toward more independence in this lesson. We are looking at 3 versions of this fable from different cultural standpoints. Our goal is to use inferencing and also compare and contrast these versions, looking at author's and cultural viewpoint. I want the students to see how different countries and authors in different time periods looked at this classic theme and presented the characters in different ways. (RL.2.9)

Let's Get Excited!
Underlined words below are lesson vocabulary words that are emphasized and written on sentence strips for my Reading & Writing word wall. I pull off the words off the wall for each lesson, helping students understand this key 'reading and writing' vocabulary can be generalized across texts and topics. The focus on acquiring and using these words is part of a shift in the Common Core Standards towards building students' academic vocabulary. My words are color coded 'pink' for literature/'blue' for reading strategies/'orange' for informational text/'yellow' for writing/'green' for all other words)
Common starting point
- "We have been talking about inferencing and how to use schema and evidence from the text to figure out what is happening." Refer to the poster.
- "This is the second version of a fable about a cowgirl who's looking for a cowboy." Show the first powerpoint slide.
Take a few moments to review or discuss inferencing. My students have had three lessons about this topic, but this is the beginning of a unit that will go in depth about the reading strategy. It's important that kids understand the developing inferences requires schema and evidence from the text. (RL.2.1) In this lesson, we'll go beyond the inference in the parts of the story to identify a theme as well. (RL.2.2)

Teacher's Turn
Give the purpose of the lesson - continue the powerpoint
- "This is a modern day version of the old fable, The Princess and the Pea. we'll be comparing the theme of this story with that fable."
- "Today's story comes from California. Let's find that on the map." (Powerpoint slide 2)
- "I'll read this version today and we'll infer what is happening and then find a theme." (Slide 3)
- When we infer, we can use 'statement starters' to let people know we're making an inference." (Slide 4) Here's a video of what this introduction to the lesson looked like.
- "I'm passing out pieces of construction paper of different sizes. We'll write our inferences on those at the bottom of each piece." These are the scraps for project.
Introduce strategy - teacher models
- Put up the sentence starters poster on the board. Here's my whiteboard with the starter poster.
- Look at the front cover of the book. "I have an inference already. The girl has gloves, cowboy boots and a hat. That's my evidence. I've seen cowboy movies before (my schema). I'm going to infer that she's a cowgirl". Write 'The words tell me that she's a cowgirl.' on your biggest piece of colored paper at the bottom. "I'll add an 'I' since the evidence was in the illustration." This is what that modeling inferences on the whiteboard looked like.
- Read through the page that says, 'Her daddy was had...' and stop. The evidence from the text is that 'there was a big house, he had 20 acres and 1000 steer.' "I know people with big houses are rich-that's my schema. I'll infer that 'I infer that her daddy was rich' or 'he had a lot of money' and I'll write 'Maybe her dad was rich.' and put 'T' for text."
- Here are the inferences the I had the kids copy on their strips from the whiteboard (biggest to smallest strip)
Practice strategy - guided practice
- "Help me use another inference to understand the story better." Read through the page with the first cowboy.
- "What evidence do you see?" Take ideas - he doesn't look like a real cowboy. "What is your schema?" Take ideas - real cowboys don't have fancy glasses like that. "Does anyone have an inference - don't forget to add a starter." One of my student suggested 'perhaps he is a fake.'
- Write those ideas on a strip of paper and use a word from our inference starter poster. Since I used text, I'll write 'T'."
- We also took a teachable moment to comparing the texts' illustrations about the princess/cowboy. The kids wanted to look back and see if there were similarities - both were in the rain, both looked bad...
Resources (6)
Students Take a Turn
Assign Task
- "Now it's your turn to make some inferences. Use a 'starter' so we know it's an inference. As we work, I'll ask different students what your evidence is."
- Read 1-2 pages at a time and let the kids make some inferences as you pause. They can write them on the colored strips. Remember to have them write a 'T' or 'I' to show their evidence.
- By the time you're done, they should have 6-10 inferences.
- Bring up the idea of the versions of the stories and how they are similar and different. We had some good discussions about how to compare the versions of the books and comparing this version to a real cowboy.
- Encourage students to describe their strategies. What is their schema? Their evidence? Why did they infer that? One of my students commented that she knew he was the real cowboy. After much discussion, she was able to say that she knew that because the character on the cover.
Taking time to prompt students to tell what they know and how they know it allows them to use metacognitive skills. They are models for others to demonstrate the true Common Core skills. The standards strive to elevate student learning to not only inference, but tell how they came to that inference. Using these fables is a great way to do this. They have a strong theme and message and allow kids to compare the characters, plot and setting. (RL.2.2)
Discuss the theme
- "Now that we have lots of great inferences, let's think about how they build into a theme. I'll go back to my list of ideas."
- "What's the 'big idea' for this story? What message is the author trying to share?"
- We brainstormed quite a bit and then created a list of themes on the board for students to copy on the brown 'saddle'.
This theme discussion is still difficult for my students . They tend to be too literal - the cowgirl wanted a real cowboy - and not step back to see what the author is trying to teach us. I still find myself prompting a lot for this lesson, but I know they need practice and support to become more independent at determining theme.
Resources (5)
Share What You've Learned
Put It All Together
- "Go back and check your spelling before we glue the colored rectangles on."
- "Now that you have inferences and a theme, let's make a visual - a saddle for the cowboy with colored blanket rectangles underneath. The inferences 'pile up' to make a theme. Start with the biggest piece and glue them in size order so we can see all of the inferences."
- "Glue on your strips and write the theme on the saddle. You can see that all of the inferences build up to help us determine the theme of a story."
- This is what it looked like as the kids were making the project.
- Here are 2 versions of the finished project. finished project and finished project 2. Here is the finished project with all of the inferences for cowboy story.
- The kids wanted to put up the visuals (of both versions) in the same place so this is how the projects were put up.
- "Who wants to share your inferences and your theme idea?"
Scaffolding and Special Education: This lesson could be scaffolded up or down, depending on student ability.
Students with language challenges may find this a difficult task because we are going beyond the text. Of all the reading strategies, I find this the hardest for my kids. They are asked to 'read between the lines' and then verbalize their inferences. They offer predictions or stay very literal (I see a cowboy), but need support with a true inference. They worked with partners and I provided help with spelling by writing the words on the board.
Those with more academic ability should be able to really demonstrate some good language with inference. They will hopefully make some good statements and provide clear evidence in their statements with some higher level vocabulary. I would 'raise the bar' with them and share your expectations. "I'll be walking around listening to ideas about your inferences. Some of you can use the 'cowboy vocabulary' in your inferences. Make sure there is evidence in your inferences - "I imagine that she is sad because her dad died. The text said 'he was passing on'."

Baby Caterpillar/Butterfly
Added Oct 29, 2013
by lizajane09
Upstate, South C...
Well, I haven't been on here in a while and I've realized how much I missed you, Burdastyle! I thought I'd add the costume I just made my baby since I entered it in the costume contest. I got the idea of making her a caterpillar from the silly looking sleep sacks she wears to bed. We joke that she looks like a glow worm. Then, I decided she needed to be a caterpillar that turns in to a butterfly. I made everything out of fleece and did a little engineering to make the costume transform. The butterfly wings fold up and tuck in to a zippered kangaroo pocket on the back of the sleep sack. I traced one of her sleep sacks for the pattern. The cap is a bonnet pattern from little betty with antennae stuck in the seams. The leaves were for fun but she sure does love to chomp on the them. From very hungry caterpillar to beautiful butterfly!

Picture this: you're checking out your website data in Google Analytics , and decide to look at your monthly traffic year-over-year. You see a huge spike in traffic on a single day last year, but you aren't quite sure what caused it. Were you running a special that day? Perhaps a new TV commercial aired? Or maybe a direct mail piece dropped? Hmm…you start shuffling through old emails and notes to solve the mystery.
Without knowing exactly what could have affected last year's traffic spike, it's impossible to measure the impact individual circumstances have on your website. Sure, you can keep an Excel spreadsheet with a long list of dates. But what if I told you there was an easy way to keep all those events organized, in one place, and in context ? Yep, you can do it right alongside your website data with Google Analytics annotations.in context
Annotations allow you to note a particular event that could have an impact on your data right on the date that it occurred.
Here are some of the types of things I like to annotate:
– Website downtime
– Sales and special promotions
– Website development changes
– Marketing campaigns (direct mail, TV, radio)
– Content changes
– Press releases or high profile featured content around the web
– And any other time-specific event that could possibly affect website visits and user behavior
Making annotations in GA is incredibly easy. Here's how it's done:
That's it. No, really. It's that simple!! Annotations are indicated by the little text bubbles at the bottom of your chart. To see the details simply click the bubble.
To see a comprehensive list of all annotations for your view, go to the Admin panel and click Annotations.
If I can offer you one final tip for using annotations in GA, it is to be explicit. Trust me when I say, it will save future you a lot of frustration. "Online Sale"…great…but what was on sale ? While Google only gives you 160 characters, be as detailed as possible! If your notes are enigmatic, you're wasting your time creating them to begin with.be explicit.
How do you use GA annotations to help analyze your website data?

I made this and it was yummy. The kids got steamed rice. Mom, after her gastric sleeve surgery had cauliflower rice.
Gina, Thanks for the feedback…so happy the family enjoyed!
Amazing and creamy! Served with jasmine rice and sautéed asparagus…Yum! I'll definitely make this again!!
Thank you for this recipe it was delicious. I had it with cauliflower rice OMGoodness. I will definitely make this a favorite.
We're so glad you enjoy this recipe, Linda! Cauliflower rice was a great side choice!
I have mine simmering right now. It is not creamy. It is runny. Is it supposed to be like this?
Kelly, I just remade this recipe and added one tweak: combined 2 Tablespoons each flour and butter then added to the pan when adding the coconut milk and nutmeg.
I see the description before the listed recipe mentions shallots but I don't see shallots in the recipe? Please advise! Thank you much!!!
Veronica, This recipe was retested and the shallts removed. Sorry about the confusion.

Posted 10 June 2011 - 07:08 AM
I've modified it yet again so that it can be more customisable.
As far as I know it works ok, but I would obviously appreciate your feedback on it.
The extension page is here, with a detailed usage description.
@pcs2112 - please try this latest version, then come back to me if you still have problems.

It turns out that upgrading to JQuery 1.6.1 got rid of these problems, so I'm assuming that it is something to do with the attr and prop method bugs from JQuery 1.5.1, although as I said I haven't searched any further.
Just in case anyone is having similar problems...

I just plugged it into my app, which uses several custom filters in the grid (and outside of it too), and it just worked.
I am really grateful as it saved me a lot of work - I didn't expect it to work as well as it did.
Tons of Kudos from me.
This has to be the most useful extension overall.
I am using it at http://tracker.ogito.../bugitor/issues

You've got me blushing there
Seriously, I'm glad it came in helpful, and I'm glad to see it being used in a serious application - do let me know if anything doesn't work as expected, and whether you think my philosophy with regards to merging query parameters and hash parameters rather than having separate widget states is the right or wrong way...

i just want to notify you that there is a conflict with facebook comments plugin.
i created an image gallery for a client and used your extension to navigate images with ajax.
if there are comments in the same page as the extension, facebook will add some GET param and invoke a js call which will add a hash to the url removing your hash, and the extension will navigate to the first page when the hash is changed to facebook's hash.
trying to navigate to other pages using the extension will not work, because facebook takes control over the hash and changes it back.
an example you can see:
the page working fine:
the link from facebook will generate the problem:
any ideas will be appreciated.

i just want to notify you that there is a conflict with facebook comments plugin.
I'll try and have a look at it when I get the time (I'm quite busy at the moment).
I haven't used the Facebook plugin, but as far as I remember, my extension should play nicely with anything else that uses the hash (as long as the parameter names don't conflict) - I don't think I ever replace or remove the hash, and when a hash change is detected it will only trigger an ajax action if it involves one of the registered parameters, so without having looked into it, I would guess that it is the Facebook plugin which is overriding the hash, in which case that is what would need to be corrected.
The other scenario is that the Facebook plugin uses CListView or CGridView in which case there might be a problem because my extension overrides the Javascript for those widgets, in which case I would perhaps have to see about completely separating it from them.

AICPA Letter Supports Financial Literacy for Youth
April 30, 2013
Financial education should begin in elementary school, the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) wrote to Senators Kay Hagan (D-NC) and Michael Enzi (R-WY), chairwoman and ranking member, respectively, of the Senate Subcommittee on Children and Families. The senators held a subcommittee hearing on April 24 on The Economic Importance of Financial Literacy Education for Students.
Prior to the hearing, the chair of the AICPA National CPA Financial Literacy Commission, Ernie Almonte, submitted a letter to the senators to thank them for their leadership and commitment to improve the financial understanding of America's youth. In addition, the letter provided information on the AICPA's financial literacy efforts and findings from recent AICPA surveys that underscore the need for students to receive personal financial instruction beginning in elementary school and continuing through high school.
In the letter, Almonte highlighted the scope of 360 Degrees of Financial Literacy, the CPA profession's volunteer effort to improve the financial understanding of all Americans, and shared targeted efforts for children. One such effort, Feed the Pig for Tweens, is a free, math-based curriculum for 4th-6th grade teachers to provide fundamental money management skills.
According to a July 2012 survey conducted by Harris Interactive for the AICPA, parents are more likely to have talked with their children about other important life lessons before money management. Discussions between parents and children about good manners (95 percent), the benefit of good eating habits (87 percent), and the dangers of drugs and alcohol (84 percent), are more likely to occur than conversations about the value of money and managing it wisely (81 percent). The Commission believes that financial instruction at home and in the classroom is critical in ensuring children grow into financially-responsible adults.
April is National Financial Capability Month, with a variety of national and local events organized to raise awareness of improving Americans' financial literacy. The AICPA co-sponsored and exhibited at the April 25 Financial Literacy Day on Capitol Hill. The annual event brings together the leading national business, non- profits and federal government agencies who work to improve the nation's financial literacy. AICPA staff promoted the profession's efforts to more than 200 hundred Hill staff.

Woman says to her coach: "I'm lowering the price on this package. Everyone says that number is too high."
Coach pauses. Then she asks: "Everyone? How many people have said this?"
Woman thinks for a moment. She says, "Well, there were two, actually."
Exhibit B:
Guy announces to his mastermind group, "People keep telling me I should offer this whole other service so I'm going to hire someone to make that happen."
Coach squints her eyes and asks, "People? Who? How many?"
Guy looks up at the ceiling: "Um. Let's see. In the past year, I think there were two – no, wait! – there were three!"
So, you know how sometimes when you do a presentation or speech, they hand out these feedback forms to everyone in the room?
And of the 50 people in the room, everyone says positive things and maybe a few of them even rave?
But in that pile, there's these two feedback forms that are not so nice?
…which of those feedback forms will stick with you for, like, the next three weeks?
Yeah. I know. Me too.
Well, your lizard brain works that same way when it comes to ideas and changes in your business.
Enter "Everyone" and "People."
The vague notion of "all things" is your lizard brain's way to get an added punch when trying to distract you, persuade you or derail you for whatever random reasons it has.
As a coach, my motto is "Beware of 'everyone' and 'people'." That means I am militant about the use of these two words when it comes to changing course, altering pricing, making decisions and supposed feedback. When a client comes to me with a bright shiny new idea, or a reason to stop doing something, or a sudden change of direction, I start in with my questions.
If I ask the right ones, the truth often reveals itself. And many times, the truth is that this new direction has been inspired by the infamous "everyone" or the ubiquitous "people."
"Everyone tells me…"
"People keep saying…"
Maybe it's because we have this neurological need to pay attention to every nit-picky, critical or even seemingly thoughtful idea that someone tosses at us.
Or maybe it's because we've spent our lives giving more weight to our feelings than to the facts, or even to the proof.
Or maybe it's because we are masters of doubting our own capabilities and ideas.
But for some reason, we often equate one or two people with the entire planet. Never mind that up til now, we've been building momentum, getting clients, and are otherwise totally on track.
Now, of course, there will be some feedback that'll be the perfect information to take you to the next level. You will hear the same comment from tens or hundreds of ideal clients. And you will be grateful. And you will correct course and please more people and make more money.
We've spent our lives giving more weight to our feelings than to the facts, or even to the proof. Click To Tweet
And there will be products or offers that don't hit their numbers.
(and this is a big but… which is why it got its very own paragraph)
…until you have ACTUAL feedback, or a review of your marketing and sales sequences…
…all you've got is the drama queen in your head telling you that EVERYONE has offered this nebulous opinion and PEOPLE everywhere are waiting for you to do something about it.
"Everyone" and "people" are like "always" and "never." It's the language of hysteria. It's not the language of truth. And certainly not the language of decision.
So, here's what to do…
The next time you catch yourself saying, "Everyone has been telling me to…" Or "People keep saying I should…"
Do yourself a favor and ask yourself one simple question…
"How many exactly?"
And then follow it with one more…
"Is that number enough to justify making this big of a change or is there another way to look at this?"
Hey, maybe this isn't something you even do. Maybe I'm taking a few tiny instances and turning them into a great big deal. Everyone keeps telling me I always do that.

Rigid Motion and Congruence Unit Quiz
Lesson 16 of 17
Objective: SWBAT describe the result of a rigid motion and use precise transformations to analyze the symmetry of a polygon. Students will understand the properties of rigid motions and how they are related to the concepts of congruence and symmetry.
Lesson Open
The warm-up prompt for this lesson asks students to describe the transformations that carry a rectangle to itself. The warm-up follows our Team Warm-up routine. I choose students at random to write the team's answer on the board.
I ask the class to look at the drawings each team has made on the board. This is an opportunity to point out careless errors or omissions that will needlessly cost students points on the quiz.
I display the Agenda and Learning Targets for the lesson. Today is the unit quiz.
Resources (4)
Unit Quiz
I display the slide as I give instructions, then give students a few minutes to get ready before I administer the unit quiz.
Resources (4)
The lesson close follows our Individual Size-Up Routine. The prompt asks students how they thought they did on the quiz and what was the most difficult part? I use their responses to see how students are feeling at the end of the unit.
I normally like to assign review problems for homework following a quiz. Since this unit ran right up to Thanksgiving Break, I assigned no homework. There are some extra problems at the end of Rigid Motions and Congruence Homework Set 2 that could be assigned. Problem #18 previews the proofs of the Corresponding Angles and Alternate Interior Angles Theorems that begin the next unit.

Gary Bettman denies NHL expansion, teams moving
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman attends the TVA Sports broadcast announcement near Montreal on Wednesday, Sept. 3, 2014. (Sebastien St. Jean/QMI Agency)
More Coverage
If the NHL is thinking about expansion as reports suggest, Commissioner Gary Bettman says he hasn't heard about it.
On a swing near Montreal on Wednesday for the launch of the 2014-15 NHL season on Sun Media partner TVA Sports, Bettman shot down reports that the NHL is eyeing franchises in Quebec City, Las Vegas, Seattle and Toronto.
"It was a complete fabrication," he said of a Sports Business News report last week. "Nothing has changed since the last time that I've addressed this issue publicly.
"The part of the story I found particularly difficult was the suggestion we would sell four franchises for $1.4 billion is way too low," Bettman said. "It undervalues our franchises."
Bettman specifically addressed a separate Vancouver Province report that said a franchise in Vegas was a "done deal."
"In fact, at the time, it was being suggested this was a done deal, I was on vacation," said the commissioner.
Although the NHL boss was just down the highway from Quebec City, he gave no hope to fans in the provincial capital who want their long-lost Nordiques to return.
"We don't want to build up anybody's expectations," he said. "We're not in a position to expand.
"We're certainly not in position to expand into the East. We've been very candid and up front that if in fact we go through an expansion process, the world will know about it. But we're not looking to relocate any franchises, and we're not looking to expand. We've been very clear about that since Day 1 when we were told about the building of the new arena."
He also had words of reassurance for fans of the Florida Panthers, a team that has openly talked about its financial problems in recent weeks.
"Nobody's moving," Bettman insisted.
"And speculation to the contrary not only is wrong, it's unfair to the team and their fans who are being speculated about.
"Stop focusing on the Panthers, they're not going anywhere."
Bettman said his league is in great shape, and the case in point would be the NHL-record 12-year, $5.2-billion media-rights deal with Rogers Sportsnet and TVA Sports.

Pre-owned: 2004-2010 Nissan Titan
Nissan had watched the big-truck market from the sidelines long enough. Seeing the incredible popularity and growth of the full-size pickup market, this truck dropped in not with a hint and a whisper, but with a large, loud, 305-hp bang. It was a noisemaker whose name left no question about Nissan's intent: Titan.
That was in 2003, when the Titan launched as a 2004 model from its Canton, Mississippi, birthplace like a gravel-spewing, V-8-powered rocket. At the time, the American manufacturers owned the segment, with the Japanese makers fielding compact or, at best, midsize trucks. Toyota's then-current Tundra was, unlike the current behemoth, actually Dodge Dakota-sized.
The Titan followed traditional form: body-on-frame with a large-displacement V-8, cab and bed variations, and rear or four-wheel drive. But there were relatively few combinations. Until the 2008 model year, there was only one overall length and wheelbase (224.2 and 139.8 inches) for the King Cab (smaller back seats, rear-hinged aft doors, 6.5-foot bed) and Crew Cab (four full doors, 5.5-foot bed). For 2008, Nissan introduced a stretched version, riding on a 159.5-inch wheelbase that gave the King Cab an 8-foot bed and the Crew Cab a 7-foot bed. No standard cab, no Mega Cab.
Nissan similarly limited the options on powertrains. There was one, the VK56DE 5.6-liter DOHC V-8 with four valves per cylinder, variable valve timing for the intakes, and an aluminum block and heads. Initially, the engine was rated at 305 hp but got a bump to 317 for 2007. Torque rose from the original 379 lb-ft to 385.
As for transmissions, you can have anything you like as long as it's a five-speed automatic. In a category filled with trucks available with anything from a puny V-6/manual to a roaring V-10, the Titan's motive options seemed a bit single-note.
Contemporary reports praised the 2004 Titan for its significant power, roomy cabin, and impressive 9500-pound towing capacity, but Nissan largely left the truck alone to face the second-generation Tundra and dramatically improved domestic pickups. It's overcome some of that disadvantage with durability. A perusal of online reliability reports show the Titan to have few issues: leaky trans-cooler pipes and power-steering hoses, weak fuel pumps in early models, and a smattering of electrical issues that result in hard starting. All these are covered under Technical Service Bulletins, so make sure any Titan you're considering has complied with them.
If the Titan is long in the tooth compared with the current big trucks, why would you bother? Value. A 2006 Titan put up against a comparably equipped 2006 Toyota Tundra (the smaller one) costs about $1500 less, according to the Kelley Blue Book. Jump ahead two years to 2008 models, when the Tundra was in its current, larger-than-life form, and the difference is more than $5000.

While thoracic surgeons are traditionally known as the experts who perform heart surgeries, a UC Davis study has found that general thoracic surgeons, especially those at academic health centers, perform the vast majority of complex noncardiac operations, including surgeries of the esophagus and lungs.
The authors said their results, published in the October issue of The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, support the designation of general thoracic surgery as a distinct specialty, which will benefit patients when selecting surgeons for specific procedures.
"In years past, most noncardiac thoracic surgeries were performed by general or cardiac surgeons," said study lead author David Cooke, a UC Davis assistant professor of clinical surgery. "Our study shows just how much those practice patterns have evolved and the value of academic centers for noncardiac thoracic surgical treatments, which is certainly a consideration for patients and their families as they make choices about where to have surgery performed."
The new specialty designation would also help teaching hospitals plan their surgery residency curricula, according to David Wisner, senior author of the study and UC Davis professor of surgery.
"Given the prevalence of lung and esophageal diseases, especially cancers, all surgeons-in-training need to know the best and most current thoracic surgery techniques in order to provide skilled, curative approaches for these patient populations," said Wisner.
In conducting the study, Cooke and Wisner evaluated billing patterns among more than 5,000 clinically active U.S. physicians in academic medical centers over three fiscal years, from 2007 to 2010. The data came from the University Health System Consortium and the Association of American Medical Colleges Faculty Practice Solution Center databases, which track details related to procedures performed at academic hospitals. The team focused on academic institutions because they perform many noncardiac thoracic surgeries and tend to set standards for medical practice.
The study showed that the vast majority -- 77.5 percent -- of complex noncardiac thoracic surgical procedures in academic settings were performed by general thoracic surgeons, compared with 9.9 percent by cardiac surgeons, 8.9 percent by general surgeons and 3.7 percent by surgical oncologists.
They also found that specific chest procedures were more likely to be performed by general thoracic surgeons:
- General thoracic surgeons averaged 51.1 pulmonary resections (removal of part of the lung) per year, while cardiac surgeons averaged 9.4 per year.
- General thoracic surgeons averaged 12.2 esophagectomies (removal of the esophagus) per year, and cardiac surgeons averaged less than one per year.
- General thoracic surgeons averaged 16 lobectomies (removal of parts of the lung) per year using a minimally invasive procedure known as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, compared to approximately one per year for other surgical specialists.
The analysis showed no differences for pneumonectomies (removal of a lung) performed by general thoracic and cardiac surgeons, who both averaged 2.1 per year. General surgeons and surgical oncologists averaged no more than 1.6 cases per year for all procedure categories included in the study.
"It's clear that general thoracic surgeons in academic settings perform the lion's share of pulmonary resections and esophagectomies and nearly all of the minimally invasive procedures," said Cooke. "It's important to consider the current state of the field when defining specialties, along with policies for referrals, credentialing and training."
The study -- "Who Performs Complex Noncardiac Thoracic Surgery in United States Academic Medical Centers?" -- was supported in part by the UC Davis Department of Surgery. A copy can be downloaded at http://ats.ctsnetjournals.org/

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday brushed off Israeli criticism of his Middle East peace efforts, saying he has been "attacked" with bullets in the past and would not be intimidated by words.
On Sunday, Israeli's minister for strategic affairs accused Kerry of holding a gun to Israel's head by speaking of "an increasing de-legitimization" campaign against Israel. In January, Israel's defense minister was quoted scorning his quest for Israeli-Palestinian peace as "messianic" and obsessive.
A parody video, reported by Israeli media to be the work of a pro-settler group, ridicules Kerry and shows an actor portraying him describing Jerusalem as "holy to all religions: Jews, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Klingons and Hobbits."
Speaking to CNN's Jake Tapper, Kerry appeared to allude to his military service during the Vietnam War as he played down the criticism.
"I've been, quote, 'attacked' before by people using real bullets, not words. And I am not going to be intimidated," Kerry told CNN according to a transcript released by the broadcaster.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the criticism of Kerry was aimed at the possibility of a peace agreement, the outlines of which the United States hopes to achieve by April.
"The words aren't an attack on him. They're actually an attack on the peace process itself," she said. "His view is that some of this is a sign that the heat is on and we're getting down to the difficult issues."
The major issues in the conflict include borders, security, the fate of Palestinian refugees and the status of Jerusalem.

Well since i figured i am starting from scratch and a complete noob, i would completely document my whole project from begging until whenever. I have always wanted to have an aquarium since i was a kid but i never got one. So now im gonna have one! I plan on starting with a freshwater then eventually adding a saltwater.
I have found a 50g aquarium w/ stand for a really good price here in town. It is suppose to be leak free. The owner decided it was too big for him after he bought it so he is selling it. The owner said the acrylic needs resurfacing so i am thinking about getting the Lifegard Aquatics Acrylic Scratch Removal Kit 72000. I am suppose to be picking up the tank on Thursday. But my setup so far is going to be:
50g acrylic tank w/ stand
Aqueon Submersible 200w Heater
Hagen Fluval 205 Canister Filter
Air Pump w/ 4 outputs
I did some research and all of these products have some pretty decent reviews. The biggest piece of advice i keep hearing is you get what you pay for when it comes to this hobby. But i have plenty of more research to keep doing and questions to ask and answers to find. So Thursday starts my journey! Feel free to comment, criticize, etc. I know we learn from mistakes but i want to keep them at a minimal lol.

Chromatin was prepared from U2OS cells according to the Abcam X-ChIP protocol. Cells were fixed with formaldehyde for 10min. The ChIP was performed with 25µg of chromatin, 2µg of ab8895 (blue), and 20µl of Protein A/G sepharose beads. No antibody was added to the beads control (yellow). The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified on the GAPDH and ALDOA (active) and MYO-D (inactive) promoters and over the y-Actin gene (active). Schematic diagram of the y-Actin gene is shown on the top of the figure. Black boxes represent exons and thin lines represent introns. PCR products are depicted as bars under the gene.
ab8895 staining Histone H3 (mono methyl K4) in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min) and then blocked in 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab8895 at 1µg/ml and ab7291 (anti beta Tubulin) at 1µg/ml overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat anti-rabbit AlexaFluor®488 secondary (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green) and a goat anti-mouse AlexaFluor®594 secondary (ab150120) at 2 μg/ml (shown in pseudo color red). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Negative controls: 1– Rabbit primary antibody and anti-mouse secondary antibody; 2 – Mouse primary antibody and anti-rabbit secondary antibody. Controls 1 and 2 indicate that there is no unspecific reaction between primary and secondary antibodies used.
ab8895 is specific for mono-methylated Lysine 4 of histone H3 and does not recognize di- or tri-methyl Lysine 4 nor methylation at Lysine 9. This is shown in lane 2 where the activity of the antibody is specifically blocked by the addition of the immunizing peptide (ab1340).
IHC image of ab8895 staining Histone H3 (mono methyl K4) in human colon formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections, performed on a Leica Bond. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab8895, 0.5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. No primary antibody was used in the negative control (shown on the inset).
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
Indian muntjac fibroblast cells - interphase (top left) and prophase (top right and below), stained with:
Mono Methyl K4 antibody, ab8895, (green)
DAPI: red, top left and right; blue, below
Phospho Ser 10 antibody: red (below) and blue (top right)
The perinuclear and perinucleolar heterochromatin domains do not contain Mono Methyl K4. The Mono Methyl K4, rather, is distributed as small nuclear foci primarily found between DAPI-intense regions of the nucleus.
