QR codes often get slated for being ugly and unpopular with consumers, but they still frequently crop up on ads and billboards so marketers must still see some potential in these little pixelated squares.
Often the problem with QR codes is that they are badly implemented, while it's all too easy to find examples of codes that are impossible to scan.
However, when marketers take care over the user experience, the technology can be put to good use, with Toyota being a notable example.
Having previously highlighted six examples of QR code campaigns that actually worked I thought it would be worth trawling the internet to see if any new case studies had cropped up.
Unfortunately I was left disappointed, as there are very few new examples online and most of the case studies I found are several years old.
Even so, here is a round up of five more examples of QR code campaign that proved to be a success. And if you know of any other decent case studies, please do flag them up in the comments section.
Verizon Wireless
This one dates all the way back to 2010 when Verizon teamed up with ScanLife to promote the array of apps available on its DROID devices.
QR codes were displayed across print ads, in-store displays, direct mail and even websites and iPad ads, linking users to a specific app on the Android Market for download or a mobile site that displayed some of the top apps.
People scanning the code with a different type of smartphone were directed to a mobile site that explained the benefits of DROID and the type of apps available.
In just over three months the campaign received more than 150,000 scans, however at the time it was ScanLife's most successful campaign so other brands shouldn't necessarily expect the same results. Also, there are no details of conversions arising from those scans.
The campaign's success was attributed to having an integrated campaign across multiple offline and online channels.
Turkish Airlines
During the London Olympics Turkish Airlines used QR codes to create a scavenger hunt around the city's bus stops.
The 'QR Flags' initiative required people to scan a series of codes as they travelled around London in order to win various prizes.
In order to encourage people to keep searching, the airline also set up a mobile site so that users could see the nearest QR flag location as well as their personal check-in data.
Overall the campaign drove 20,000 referrals, with visitors spending an average of one minute on the mobile site. According to inMobi this dwell time is above the norm for 75% of industries.
Taco Bell
As part of Taco Bell's ESPN College Football promotion around the Bowl Championship Series, the fast food chain printed QR codes on taco boxes and drinks cups between December 20 and February 3 this year.
The codes linked to analyst Mark May previewing upcoming games, so it's likely that the interest dropped off following the National Championship Game on January 7.
Even so, the codes generated more than 225,000 scans which is an impressive level of engagement.
Verizon (again) achieves 200% sales increase
For this campaign Verizon displayed QR codes in-store that allowed customers to enter a promotion to win a smartphone.
Customers had to share a Verizon ad on Facebook and if one of their friends bought a phone then the original customer would be given a free mobile.
During the week that the promotion was running Verizon received an additional $35,000 in sales from an investment of just $1,000.
It seems the combination of a social element and a direct sales tactic were key ingredients in a successful campaign.
Another case study dating back to 2011, video game developer THQ hid ten QR codes within its Homefront game that allowed players to unlock exclusive videos and wallpapers.
The codes were scanned 30,000 times within the first two days, and it soon clocked up 30,000 wallpaper downloads and 18,000 video views.
This is obviously a unique case as the codes unlocked material that enhanced the game rather than acting as a marketing tool. For example, one of the codes played a governmental emergency broadcast video explaining a national flu epidemic, while another code placed in an extremist's garage linked to a propaganda music video.
But while this isn't a marketing example, it is a very creative use of QR codes and shows that people are willing to scan them for the right incentive.
Comments (5)
David, thanks for publishing some of the successes marketers have seen with QR codes, as too often our judgment has been clouded by those who use them incorrectly and fail. I pointed out some of these same successes in my most recent Marketing Land column (http://marketingland.com/qr-codes-work-when-done-well-56243). Though you might not have been able to find more success stories online, data from Adobe and Experian Hitwise suggests that marketing failures from QR codes are less common, as most marketers rated them effective or very effective when asked. It's unfortunate that these successes aren't mentioned as often as the failures, given that they are more common.
Another successful case is the 3D qrcode Emart Sunny Sale Campaign.That was placed across the city and could only be scanned during the hours of 12 and 1 each day, due to the sunlight casting a shadow to complete the QR code. Anybody who did scan the code was given a special discount code with 25% off that could be redeemed in store or through their mobile e commerce site. Emart have seen a great increase in sales during the lunchtime period and have doubled the number of locations for this promotion. This is a very smart way to effectively use ( barcode) technology to drive sales.
Another use for QR codes is digital currencies and mobile payments. Probably where QR codes are now used the most. Displaing a public key using QR and scanning via mobile is very simple for transferring payments.
Example - http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-pool-table-raspberry-pi/
QR codes work well with almost any physical product.
See creative case how Pinnacle Vodka turn QR code into a great success. http://esp.to/wzaQ6f
Though only on a small scale I have used designer qr codes successfully for a customer of mine on his van, directing people to his prices, on a mobile friendly site of course!

Tyler Wilson Passes Geno Smith on January Big Board for 2013 NFL DraftJanuary 8, 2013
With the college football bowl season officially behind us, eyes will now shift towards the Super Bowl, and then free agency and the draft. Evaluations will start heating up, and rankings will continue to change as underclassmen declare for the draft and prospects prepare for pre-draft workouts.
For clarification, a "big board" is not indicative of where a player may get drafted, it is merely a ranked list of prospects based off their projected success in the NFL. A player with great stats at the college level may not necessarily be a good fit for the NFL.
I've decided to expand this board from my previous 40-prospect list to 50, with draft season beginning to heat up. So remember, this is not a mock draft in any way; this is just ranking the 50 best draft-eligible college football players.
*Denotes underclassmen
1. *Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
Jones set Georgia's single-season sack record in the Capital One Bowl, even though he missed two games and played against Georgia Southern, who only attempted four passes all game. Jones' athleticism and intensity are unmatched by anyone in the draft. The severity of his spinal stenosis condition will be the biggest factor in where he gets drafted. Previous: 1
2. *Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
Joeckel finished the season on a high note as A&M destroyed Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl. Joeckel has phenomenal balance and technique, and is a very solid athlete. His play was a huge reason that Johnny Manziel had time in the pocket, and was also often able to take off on a scramble around the edge. Previous: 3
3. Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
Lotulelei is the best defensive lineman in the draft. He is versatile enough to play as a 3-4 nose tackle or a 4-3 defensive end. His strength and ability to get leverage off the line of scrimmage allows him to swallow up double teams and move the pile play after play. Previous: 2
4. Chance Warmack, G, Alabama
Warmack is as good a guard prospect as there can possibly be. He's incredibly strong, fundamentally sound and extremely experienced, and dominated a very good Notre Dame defensive line in the National Championship. Previous: 4
5. Dion Jordan, DE, Oregon
Jordan's versatility is unmatched. He's listed somewhere between 6'6" and 6'7" and is a skilled pass-rusher, but is also quick enough that he sometimes drops back in coverage as well. A shoulder injury slowed him at the end of the season, but as long as that is fully healed by draft day, Jordan should be a high selection. Previous: 6
6. *Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
Richardson is an incredible talent as a defensive tackle. His combination of sheer size, core strength, quickness and ferocity made him one of the most productive and disruptive linemen in the country this year. Previous: 17
7. *Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
Lewan's stock was wavering a bit in my eyes, but an outstanding performance in the Outback Bowl solidified him as the No. 2 offensive tackle in this year's class, should he decide to enter the draft. Lewan did a commendable job handling Jadeveon Clowney, the extraordinary sophomore defensive end for South Carolina. Previous: 9
8. *Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
Werner didn't finish the season quite as strongly as he started it, but he still showed the outstanding athleticism that should make him one of the first defensive players selected in the draft. He gets great bend around the edge and is relentless in his effort to get to the quarterback. Previous: 10
9. *Damontre Moore, DE/OLB, Texas A&M
Moore officially declared for the draft a few days before he played a solid final collegiate game in the Cotton Bowl. Moore plays as a defensive end for the Aggies, but could possibly switch to outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme in the NFL. His draft spot depends on what NFL teams want out of him in terms of position. Previous: 8
10. *Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
Milliner is a talented cornerback who has plenty of big-game experience on an Alabama defense that just churns out NFL talent. He had an exceptional performance in the National Championship. Previous: 11
11. Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
I think everyone, myself included, got a little carried away in Te'o's Heisman campaign. While there's no denying his natural ability and leadership, I'm not convinced he's a surefire top-10 talent at this point. The combine will be big for him. Previous: 4
12. Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
After finally getting to watch some tape on Fisher recently, I came away extremely impressed with the relatively unheralded left tackle. For his size (6'8", 305 lbs.), Fisher moves extremely well and displays excellent strength, balance and positioning on every play. You'll be hearing his name a lot more in the next couple months. Previous: 33
13. *Sam Montgomery, DE, LSU
Montgomery is one of the safer players in this year's draft in that he's experienced, consistent and has good technique and size already at this point. The problem is that he isn't overly athletic, so he doesn't have the ceiling of guys like Werner or LSU teammate Barkevious Mingo. Previous: 7
14. *Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State
Hankins is still one of the draft's more intriguing players for me, because of his combination of size and raw ability. I don't see consistent effort, however, and I don't think he disengages particularly well, even when he's already pushed his blocker backwards and has good hand placement. With coaching and a more aggressive mindset, Hankins could become an elite player in the NFL. Previous: 12
15. *Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia
Ogletree will be one of the first three inside linebackers taken in this draft. I love Ogletree's length, athleticism, and tendency to always be around the ball. He led Georgia in tackles this season even though he missed four games. Previous: 14
16. *Barkevious Mingo, DE/OLB, LSU
Mingo's speed, quickness, flexibility and natural athleticism are off the charts, but it didn't translate to much production this year, and he wasn't on the field anywhere near as much as Montgomery. But his insane athletic ability is too rare for him to fall out of the first round. Previous: 13
17. John Jenkins, DT, Georgia
Jenkins was forced to sit out the Capital One Bowl due to academic issues. This didn't do anything to help his stock, but with others falling or returning to school, it didn't hurt it much either. His size and strength make him an ideal fit as a 3-4 nose tackle. Previous: 15
18. Barrett Jones, OL, Alabama
There's not much to say that hasn't already been revealed by announcers or stories leading up to the National Championship game. Jones is smart, strong, mature, experienced and has played every position on the line. Any NFL team would be lucky to have him. Previous: 21
19. Keenan Allen, WR, California
Not much has happened with Allen since he missed the end of the season with a PCL injury. Other receivers have played well though, and he's going to need a very good combine to show that his injury didn't affect his speed to keep his spot as the top receiver. Previous: 18
20. Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
North Carolina's football team didn't play in a bowl game, but Cooper put together a great senior season and was a major reason for Giovani Bernard's breakout year. Cooper will almost certainly be a first-round pick. Previous: 19
21. Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
Banks is tall, strong in the air and has the potential to be a great resource against taller receivers like A.J. Green and Brandon Marshall. He put together some impressive tape against some fast SEC offenses this season. Previous: 26
22. Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame
Eifert is immensely talented as a tight end. Even though he's the main focus for defenses game in and game out, he continued to beat double teams and have a productive season. Notre Dame's offense was dominated in the National Championship, but Eifert's effort was visible every time he got a chance. Previous: 25
23. Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
An incredible athlete who hasn't been playing football very long, Ansah has started gaining national attention as the draft process is just around the corner. He's a big, strong, athletic pass rusher who has been talked about as a 3-4 OLB, but I see as a 4-3 DE. The Ghana native will need a lot of coaching and practice, so whoever drafts him will need to know what they're doing. Previous: NR
24. *Eric Reid, S, LSU
Reid's athleticism and experience in the SEC will make him one of the first safeties to get his named called in the draft. But Kenny Vaccaro and Matt Elam both made strong cases for themselves at the end of the season, so Reid will have to bring his "A" game to the combine. Previous: 22
25. *Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
I think Rhodes will turn some heads when he works out for teams and at the combine. His combination of size, strength and quickness is rare for a defensive back, and his potential versatility will be enticing to NFL teams looking to counter high-powered passing attacks. Previous: 29
26. Tyler Wilson, QB, Arkansas
Wilson takes over as the top quarterback on the board. Geno Smith just continued falling throughout the season as he struggled against good defenses, and his wide receivers showed more and more that they contributed a lot to Smith's success. Wilson battled through a tough season in Arkansas and his potential shows consistently on tape. Previous: 28
27. Kenny Vaccaro, S, Texas
Vaccaro is extremely quick and fluid in small spaces, but his top gear isn't elite. He can be a real ballhawk when he positions himself well, but also gets beaten badly a little too often. Consistency will be the biggest factor to Vaccaro's success. Previous: 30
28. Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
Austin's speed was mostly compromised in the snow in the Pinstripe Bowl, so he didn't make as big of an impact as normal. But his unparalleled explosiveness and elusiveness give him an edge over other receivers in the draft, because he can break a game open any time he touches the ball. Previous: 23
28. Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
Smith had occupied the top quarterback spot for the past couple months, but I was never a huge fan of Smith. As his play continued to deteriorate and his team continued to lose, Smith's value dropped more and more. His poor play in the Pinstripe Bowl loss to Syracuse was the final straw. Previous: 27
29. Terrance Williams, WR, Baylor
I got to watch a little more tape on Williams recently, and his talent really shined through once again, but there are still some red flags. His effort isn't consistent, and he suffered from one or two spells where he dropped a number of easy passes. Previous: 40
30. *Robert Woods, WR, USC
Woods made the extremely smart decision of declaring for the draft. He went from being overhyped at the beginning of the season to underhyped by the end, due to the emergence of Marqise Lee and the struggles of USC. Woods will start to come back on strong as the draft process starts. Previous: 32
31. Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina
There are still some mixed opinions about Williams, who has very good size, strength, quickness and footwork, but isn't elite in any category and wasn't super productive during the season. His stock will be very dependent on his performance at the combine. Previous: 34
32. *Kevin Minter, ILB, LSU
Minter has gotten nowhere near the attention he deserves. I think that as more tape gets watched and people start discussing the inside linebackers more, everyone will realize that Minter actually has a chance of being the first inside linebacker taken. There's a good chance he rises up the board in the next couple months. Previous: NR
33. Jesse Williams, DT, Alabama
An interesting prospect because he's a latecomer to football, but Williams is a load on the inside. He's impossible to move due to his incredible full-body strength. The Aussie had a big part in shutting down Notre Dame in the National Championship. Previous: NR
34. Matt Barkley, QB, USC
Some people think Barkley shouldn't be taken in the first round, while others still consider him a top-5 talent. I fall somewhere in between, because while I don't think he has a very high ceiling, there isn't as much risk with Barkley as with some of the other quarterbacks in this draft. Previous: 35
35. *Giovani Bernard, RB, North Carolina
As a redshirt sophomore, there were doubts as to whether or not Bernard would enter the draft. But since he declared, Bernard finds himself as the top eligible back. Bernard runs hard and low, and can break through tackles but also outrun defenders. Previous: NR
36. *Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee--Previous: 37
37. *Matt Elam, S, Florida--Previous: NR
38. *Corey Lemonier, DE, Auburn--Previous: 24
39. *Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford--Previous: 38

ANNAPOLIS C. FRASER SMITH OF THE SUN'S ANNAPOLIS BUREAU CONTRIBUTED TO THIS ARTICLE. — ANNAPOLIS -- Lt. Gov. Melvin A. Steinberg split with his boss, Gov. William Donald Schaefer, yesterday over what course the administration should recommend for its controversial Linowes commission tax restructuring proposal.
Mr. Schaefer wants the bill passed this year. Mr. Steinberg said ++ he was convinced the measure needed to be studied by the General Assembly and subjected to public hearings this summer.
As a result, Mr. Steinberg, who is in charge of the governor's legislative agenda, said he had decided not to testify at a joint legislative hearing today on the tax proposal legislation.

Hewlett Packard's new CEO, Meg Whitman, made an appearance today in a conference directed at the company's channel partners in Las Vegas. The company expressed many of its plans for the future, but there was a significant statement that caught our attention. Whitman spoke briefly about the idea of open-sourcing WebOS and managed to take a slight punch at Google.
For those who may have forgotten, HP quit the hardware manufacturing business last year. The company decided to redirect its focus to software in an effort to improve their situation. You probably remember seeing the HP Touchpad on sale for a mere $99 right after HP announced this. But let's move on.
The open-source topic was very briefly covered. Whitman mentioned that it would take 2-5 years to get WebOS open-sourced, and that she believes another mobile OS is necessary for the industry. Her claim was that Apple is great close-sourced, and Google might be following the same steps (due to Motorola's acquisition). Oh, and she also mentions that it is fragmented.
It's hard to take such words seriously, reminiscent of the likes of RIM. It seems both CEOs really need to consider what Android is all about. HP and WebOS haven't been very successful in the mobile industry, and open-sourcing WebOS might be the best move to make. And it should be done sooner.
There are many reasons why Android is such an attractive OS, but much of it revolves around its open nature. Manufacturers and developers can do wonders with the OS and modify it (for better or worse) to their liking. This is the main reason why Android has reached the top of the smartphone food chain.
Our little green robot is now everywhere. You can choose from a plethora of devices, UI overlays and features. A great part of Google's success in the mobile industry is due to this very fact, and Google would take a big risk close-sourcing our favorite mobile operating system.
When the acquisition of Motorola was first announced, we were all worried. Many questions arose, mainly revolving about the future of Android and if Motorola would get any sort of preference or exclusivity. The Search Giant has made it very clear that Android will not be affected by this acquisition. This deal was meant to provide Google with a patent portfolio that would better protect them in legal disputes.
We are still a bit suspicious about such claims. Google might very well throw a curve ball at us. And Google has also mentioned that "they are not in just for the patents." But it seems very unlikely that Google would risk its success to the extent of closing the whole OS.
Meg Whitman's statement may very well have been meant to make HP's partners feel more secure (which is something commonly done). We'll just have to wait a few years and see how HP plays its game. By then, Android should be much, much bigger, so we suggest HP does things a bit quicker than expected.

Twenty-one children from Newtown, Conn., sang the song Tuesday with singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson on ABC's "Good Morning America." Most of them are current and former students of the school where 20 first-graders and six staff members were killed.
They recorded the song at the home of two former members of the Talking Heads rock band. It went on sale Tuesday on Amazon and iTunes, with proceeds benefiting a local United Way and the Newtown Youth Academy.
Ten-year-old Kayla Verga says she's singing for her friend, Jessica Rekos, who was killed in the rampage. She says it feels like Jessica is beside her, singing along with her.

- Having per-app volume levels does solve cases when multiple media apps are used in parallel:
- Talking with a friend on a Skype call while playing a video game/watching video. (Give Skype higher volume priority than the game/video)
- Video editing while listening to music. (Give video editing sound output higher priority than the music)
- Remove per-application volume, and group applications:
- Notifications
- Alarms (bypasses "mute" settings)
- Music (in reality all other applications)
Implement predictable audio routing in PulseAudio:
Bluetooth/USB speakers and headsets > Wired headphones > HDMI/DisplayPort output > Internal speakers
Experimental mockup:
- Re: "Balance shouldn't be shown for headphones": The balance setting is also used for accessibility reasons fx to compensate for assymetrical hearing or imbalanced hearing (fx left ear is quiter than right). This is especially relevant when such a user is wearing headphones.

|What can mom & dad buy me from SkyMall?
My first piece of advice would be to fly Southwest if at all possible. No, this is not a sponsored post (I wish), but they have several policies that make it much easier to fly with them than another carrier.
Next up, be prepared when packing. Checklists are your friend. I typically started my list about a week out from travel. It is amazing how many things you need when traveling with a little one and a list makes it hard to forget. Then again, forgetting is not always the end of the world. We were able to fully wean my daughter off her last before bed bottle (at 16 months) after it was forgotten.
While you will be bringing a lot of stuff with you, check as much of it as possible. (One reason why flying Southwest is helpful). Anything that is not super fragile (e.g. computer, camera) and you won't need on the flight, put in the suitcase.
Be realistic about what you need. Don't pack for the absolute worst case in-flight scenario. For example, I would typically have about 15 diapers and 2 sets of baby clothes in my carry on for a 3-hour non-stop flight. Yes, we could have gone through more, but after weighing the probabilities, I felt comfortable with this. Enough, but not too much to carry.
Wear the baby. This is especially helpful when you are traveling by yourself with the baby. The idea of folding and unfolding a stroller while holding a child that doesn't really walk gave me major anxiety. I also wasn't big on my child rolling around on the floor at airport security. If you are wearing the baby, they send you through the X-ray machine, test your hands and send you on your merry way. I wore E when traveling until she was almost 20 months old.
Sit in the back of the plane. Again, this is where flying Southwest can work in your favor. Unless the plane is packed, which happens, people are lazy and don't want to go to the back of the plane. It increases the likelihood of having an extra seat in your row and giving you some extra space to move around.
Bring entertainment....and snacks. We always had a variety of books, toys, crayons and other things to keep E busy on the plane. That said, the only thing that was a sure bet was snacks. Lots and lots of snacks. I also suggest water for an in flight beverage because it doesn't stain and isn't sticky when it inevitably gets spilled. I also skipped it in favor of my own water bottle on several occasions.
Rent what you can at your destination. The less you have to get to and from the airport the better. We were lucky enough to have family where we were going for most of our trips so we didn't have to pack much. We flew with a car seat and pack-and-play once and that was a huge mistake. It made the travel experience so much harder. I will be renting or buying these items at my destination from now on.
I know these tips may not work for everyone, but hopefully, you can learn from my experience (and mistakes).
Just remember to take a deep breath and enjoy the journey!

CAD / Mobile Data
| Chester County will take a giant technological step when it implements a new Intergraph Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. CAD is the master database used to coordinate incident location and responder-provider information to dispatch the appropriate first-due and secondary emergency responders.
The new CAD will replace the system in use since 1994 and will provide the platform to add enhancements for Next Generation 9-1-1. The mobile client, which is the program used on the Mobile Data Computers (MDCs) will provide enhanced situational awareness and functionality for responders.
When the new CAD is deployed it will be integrated with the Harris Radio System, replacing the status message units (SMUs) and enabling automatic vehicle locator (AVL). In addition, the new CAD will provide enhanced reporting and monitoring for response agencies.
New CAD Backup Beat List and Response Changes
Posted to the Member's Section of the Chester County Fire Chiefs Association under the Announcements section is the Backup Beat lists (run streams) and default structure fire response choices for each station in the new Intergraph CAD system. Please make any necessary modifications and email the revised documents to firstname.lastname@example.com. You must have Microsoft Excel to open and edit the document. The first tab contains the backup lists and the second tab contains the default structure fire responses. REMINDER: You can only modify the backup beats after Primary ALS and before the County 1500 beat.
Questions can be directed to email@example.com. DES Staff will be present at the Chief Officer's update on January 24th to review this information in greater detail. Copies of responses from PRC CAD may be requested on an individual basis. All modified responses need to be returned to DES by 02/29/2016.
Also in the Member's Section is a beat list definition spreadsheet which is separated by County (Beat_List.xlsx) and the presentation from Thursday night's Association meeting (Response_Planning_Presentation.pdf).

Rod Lurie Interview
"Dustin Hoffman Convinced Me To Do This"
Quick BioRod Lurie is a born iconoclast. The former soldier turned film reviewer turned filmmaker has always challenged the status quo with fire and radical insight. As a journalist, he was often taken to task for his blunt opinions, but he told the truth. Now, as a filmmaker, he's garnering praise for his thought-provoking and well-made films. Lurie's latest is an unusual and controversial choice: a remake of the notoriously ultraviolent 1971 Sam Peckinpah film Straw Dogs. He continues to slay dragons.
Lurie grew up in Israel, Hawaii and Connecticut, the son of liberal parents. His father was renowned political cartoonist Ranan Lurie, who holds the record as the most widely syndicated political cartoonist in the world. Rod was exposed to liberal politics, and it shaped his future.
After graduating from West Point, Lurie served as a U.S. Army Air Defense artillery officer before heading to Los Angeles to work as a film critic. He gained national notoriety for his balls-out opinions and often brutal honesty, and won the dubious distinction of banishment by various studios as a result of his frankness. Lurie then focused on the failings of the media by outing tabloid journalists for unethical practices, defending his allegations on national television. In 1995, he wrote the controversial book Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: Moviemaking, Con Games, and Murder in Glitter City, based on a real-life serial killer with inside connections. So he's never taken the path of least resistance.
Lurie's on the other side of the camera these days. He's a filmmaker, directing his own screenplays and often appearing in his films, like Alfred Hitchcock, whose influence is felt in Straw Dogs. Unsurprisingly, Lurie's films, mostly political thrillers, have generated the controversy that comes from asking the big questions. There's an uprising in the prison reform drama The Last Castle, a Jewish president plotting a nuclear strike from a snowbound diner in Deterrence, a female vice-presidential nominee navigating political and personal landmines in The Contender, and a fictionalized version of the Valerie Plame story -- a CIA agent outed in The Washington Post in Nothing But the Truth.
Lurie abandons politics for his latest film but he doesn't abandon controversy. Peckinpah's Straw Dogs starring Dustin Hoffman as a professor holed up in a farmhouse battling intruders was a landmine in its day and widely loathed. Lurie has taken this bête noir and remade it starring James Marsden and Kate Bosworth as the besieged householders, as well as Alexander Skarsgard as Charlie. Lurie's approach is radically different from the original. AskMen spoke with Lurie from Los Angeles.
You've made your Straw Dogs with considerable artistry, refinement and restraint. And yet it has all the shock value we'd expect.
Rod Lurie: When you make a movie like Straw Dogs, your goal is to have people's eyes remain glued to the screen. It serves you no purpose to turn away from the screen. I think that it's a very tense and exciting film, and it will appeal to people who enjoy their action and their gore. It's unsettling -- it is -- but it's watchable.
Are you anticipating a lot of inappropriate comparisons to the original film?
RL: Here's what I think. When the film originally came out, the critics were tough on it. Now they watch and say, "Wait, it's a masterpiece and can't be tampered with." I welcome the contrast to Sam Peckinpah. I admire him tremendously, but I'm my own man. I'll tell you an anecdote. Dustin Hoffman convinced me to do this. I met him at a party and told him I had the rights to Straw Dogs. He said, "It's a scary Western, is what it is. Sam had some crazy idea about human beings, so do something completely different."
Your Straw Dogs is substantially different, especially in certain pivotal scenes.
RL: Sony commissioned a full survey to determine how many people had seen the original. Only 3 to 4 percent of the respondents had even heard of the film. So journalists are talking to me because they know the film openly, but they want spoilers. I can refer to "The Scene" as a spoiler. Journalists don't think so; they think it's famous. You can obviously see that the ending is very unpleasant to most people.
In a way it's a feel-good story of the most primal kind.
RL: I remember watching movies like Fatal Attraction and watching the audience go bananas at the end of the film. And if you watch it with one person, they go sensationally crazy at the end of the movie -- they are leaping out their seats and yelling so it is visceral, and they look like they need to get a drink.
One of the themes of the film is what makes a man. Is man as a protector/warrior a dated idea?
RL: OK, that's the very reason for making the film. I'm hit all the time with "Why did you need to remake Straw Dogs?" There is no "need" to remake any film. You don't need the Harry Potter series or Drive or Full Metal Jacket. But there is a purpose, and here was my purpose: Sam Peckinpah made the original. He based it on the sociobiology, which came from a book on the territorial imperative that holds that all men are biologically violent, biological as if we are coded for it. Pauline Kael called it a fascist film. Here there were violent conditions, and it's not coded into us. What makes a man is when you go against your own instincts to do to the right thing. One way or another, at the end of our film, James Marsden finds the man inside him; Dustin finds the animal inside him.
I think you've made it clear that Marsden's David has a kind of superior, ostentatious attitude around the locals. Was he asking for trouble?
RL: I don't know if that's the terminology I'd use. There is a definitely a cultural clash rather than cultural warfare. It represents a violence that exists in our country, period. I moved it to the U.S. because there is no point in making it in a small Cornish town. In this country, they can't relate to that. The divisions in our countries are well represented in this film. I don't see it as political film but as people growing up with different values that are more violent. The characters grew up in an environment of violence in football, hunting and bar fights. That's their world. So they're conditioned to it.
Amy's lack of judgement is clearer too here. She acted out and raised the tension. Was it a lack of judgement, naiveté or hostility toward David?
RL: It's a question I'm not interested in answering. The behavior of human beings isn't explained, and we do things by instinct, and we later regret them. She does something in the film she wouldn't have done if she'd had five minutes to think about it.
These are roles that will change James Marsden and Kate Bosworth's careers.
RL: I really hope so. People who see the film will see how people view them. Both of them have done dramatic work in the past. James did Heights, and Kate did The Girl in the Park, so I'm hoping this gets attention and that gets them to seek the dramatic roles.
James Woods is on fire here. How was he on the set? Did he have his own ideas?
RL: He's a legendary actor with a more than distinguished career. He was the old pro of the set, and he brings with him a history of working with some of the best directors, from Sergio Leone or Oliver Stone, and he is a real legend. He had a lot of ideas. He did the movie without reading the screenplay. We wanted to work together and thought it was a great idea. Of course he has his own ideas, but he also responds to direction very well. He wasn't making his own film. James Woods is a furnace that you open, and the fire pours out.
The music is reminiscent of Hitchcock's scores, which really adds to the sense of tension.
RL: That was my composer, Jerry Fielding. We listened to a lot of Bernard Herrmann, and we love that style of music. Of course, he put his own spin with the zydeco flavor. We also have a great song score.
You've made creative use of social media over the past couple of years. Has it changed the way you make films?
RL: There are a couple songs in the films that were ideas I gleaned from Facebook. I told people I needed a song. I admire how Tarantino finds music that's semifamiliar and not famous, undiscovered gems. I asked for examples, and one of them that I used is the opening is "Goin' Down" by the Monkees. [Lurie recently put the call out on Facebook for people in the military to send him firsthand accounts of their experiences for a new TV series.]
How has your military training and background at West Point shaped your films?
RL: There are three things. First, no matter what difficulty I run into in life, I can say that I've been in a tougher scrape than this. Number two is that West Point teaches a tremendous amount of organization, so our sets are run pretty efficiently. Finally, West Point is so multicultural, there are so many minorities and varieties of religion, that it tends to make you more liberal.
Can you look at your film with objectivity?
RL: I think I look at it with harsher eyes than the audience. I see every slight problem with continuity, and I know what's cut out what should be there but was cut. It's not objective at all. It's subjective, but more to the negative.

1. Introduction
In the previous MFC Article, we examined how the Mapping Modes works while performing the drawing operation. In this example, we will see how do we set the custom mapping modes. Out goal is below:
1) Set mapping mode so that the horizontal logical unit is 1 cm. Simply, 1 Unit = 1 c.m in X axis
2) Also, 1 Unit = 1 c.m in Axis.
3) Positive X is towards left
4) Positive Y is going Upwards
5) The Drawing origin should be in screen center
2. The Custom Mapping Mode
To achieve the above we need to use the Custom Mapping mode. From the previous article, you may now know that the mapping modes MM_ISOTROPIC, MM_ANISOTROPIC are custom mapping modes. In MM_ISOTROPIC mode, both X and Y-axis represents the same unit of measure. That is if X-axis represents 1 logical unit as 1 m.m then Y-axis also represent 1 logical unit as 1 m.m. In our example, we are going to use the MM_ANISOTROPIC mode.
3. About the Example
Have a look at the below depiction:
We are going to draw X Axis and Y Axis and then draw an ellipse. The ellipse will have 8 cm major axis and 4 cm minor axis when measured after having the hardcopy. So to achieve this drawing, we should set a mapping mode that will see one unit as 1 centimeter. Also, note that the Origin should be at the center of the screen.
OK. Let us walk through how do we create this example.
4. Coding the Example
1) Create a Single document interface application (SDI) and in the OnPaint Handler, we are going to perform the drawing specified above. First, we need to set the mapping mode as ISOTROPIC and ANISOTROPIC. In this example I specified the ISOTROPIC mapping mode as both X and Y-axis has the same unit of measure that is 1 logical drawing unit is 1 centimeter. Below is code that set the mapping mode:
CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting
2) Once the mapping mode is set the screen resolution in terms of mm is returned using the GetDeviceCaps function by passing the HORZSIZE, VERTSIZE. The size returned in mm is based on the current resolution. The screen size in mm is stored in the variables width_in_mm and height_in_mm.
//Sample 01: Returns the Dimension in MM
int width_in_mm = dc.GetDeviceCaps(HORZSIZE);
int height_in_mm = dc.GetDeviceCaps(VERTSIZE);
The picture shown below tells that the 1 pixel is represented as 0.3525 mm approximately.
3) Once we have Screen resolution in mm, we need to get the screen resolution in pixels. We use the same GetDeviceCaps function to get the screen resolution in pixels. Below is the code:
//Sample 02: Return the dimension in pixels
int width_in_pixels = dc.GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES);
int height_in_pixels = dc.GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES);
4) Have a look at the below picture:
From the above picture you can see how the Window and "Viewport Extends" works together. Imagine that the gray lines 1 unit and 1 unit is one pixel. The Red line shows how the window is divided by logical measure, say, for example, imagine like this, the screen dimension of 7x5 mm is divided as 4 horizontal extends and 3 vertical extends. This same technique can be used in the below-given code.
//Sample 03: How the screen divided in terms of Logical Units.
//For Example, if horz size returned is 500 mm,
//the window is divided into 50 logical extents.
dc.SetWindowExt(width_in_mm/10, (-1 * height_in_mm)/10); // 10 MM = 1 Unit or 1 CM = 1 Unit
//Sample 04: How the screen divided in terms of pixels
dc.SetViewportExt(width_in_pixels, height_in_pixels);
In the above code we specified the following unit of measures:
Device Coordinate system's unit of measure is done by the SetViewportExt function call. Let us say the resolution is 800x600, so the screen is divided as "800 extents" horizontally and "600 extents" vertically. That means each unit represents pixels; for example, if I say 10 unit in device coordinate then it is 10 pixels. For same 800x600 resolution, the screen size measured is 282x212 mm. Now, using the SetWindowExt function call, we divided the screen width as 28 extents and screen height as 21 extents. This way each unit measures 1 cm in the logical unit (Put down your calculator and I agree there is a slight precision loss).
OK. What is the importance of specifying the extents? Let us start with a detailed explanation that may help you understand the coordinate transformation in terms of Pixels versus Logical units. From the above picture, the Device Coordinate System uses the gray lines and the Logical Co-ordinate system uses Red lines as a unit of measures. MFC Framework and Win32 API uses both the coordinate systems. For example, the WM_LBUTTONUP uses the device coordinate system to specify the mouse cursor location in terms of (x, y) pixels. Whereas, the drawing functions exposed by the CDC (Device Context) expects the Logical coordinate system. Now, think how a user can draw a 10 cm line by using the mouse.
In this case, a coordinate conversion is required. Your code may go like this:
1) The mouse events capture the Line start and end
2) Start point and end points are converted to Logical unit from Device unit
3) These converted points (Dimensions) passed to the Line Drawing functions
Note that at the first step itself showing the line dimension (In logical unit) helps the user to draw 10 cm line. Now you may have an idea of coordinate space conversion. Two kinds of conversion are possible and they are:
a) Device Space to Logical Space
b) Logical Space to Device Space
In my previous article I specified that except MM_ISOTROPIC and MM_ANISOTROPIC, all co-ordinate have the valid mappings. These two mapping modes are custom mapping modes and that means you decide the mapping between Logical and Physical unit. I am moving to the next coding part and at the end of the article, we will derive the coordinate transformation formula.
5) Next, we shifted the viewport origin towards the center of the screen. Below is the code for it.
//Sample 05: Set Viewport Orgin to the Screen Center
CRect rct;
dc.SetViewportOrg(rct.right/2, rct.bottom/2);
6) Once the drawing origin is shifted to the screen center, the x-axis and y-axis are drawn using the MoveTo, LineTo functions. Next using the device context an ellipse is drawn to the screen. Now all the units specified here are in Centimeter.
//Sample 06: Draw the Axis
dc.MoveTo(0,-8 );
//Sample 07: Draw the Ellispse
dc.Ellipse(0, 4, 8, 0);

Good quality and great capacity. Our challeng was that the matching "strap hooks" by Rightline did absolutely NOT fit on our Toyota Venza. As we learned this the day of departure, we had to improvise by tying straps to the interior handles on the inside roof of the vehicle. Not ideal! The roof pad also bunched as it slid back from the front of the carrier in travel wind. We were disappointed as Rightline assures the hooks are essentially "universal" in fit, which was NOT true for our vehicle.

Welcome to FREAKIN'BILLBOARD where we make products with a one-of-a-kind artistic flair out of recycled highway billboard. We personally (there are 2 of us) clean and cut the billboards before they are sent out to be sewn by talented LOCAL seamstresses. We take great care to cut a design that is unique to each item and we use as much recycled highway billboard as possible in our products. Due to the grand size of a board, usually 48ft x 14ft, the color and effects on the vinyl are freakin'cool. Unlike the products of many of our competitors, our items are made in the USA and the vinyl used is %100 reused. All of our bags are lined with high quality fabric or with a second layer of billboard and are made to withstand use, while at the same time being affordable. We add items regularly, so be sure to check back often.

Sandboxie vs (Free)
I think I've read enough on Sandboxie to understand what it does. Two questions:
1. Wouldn't it be redundant to run Sandboxie and Microsoft Security Essentials?
2. Is there a comparable free software to Sandboxie?
|My System Specs
|14 Feb 2011
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
It's not redundant to run MSE (or any other AV) with Sandboxie. Sandboxie creates a reserved space in the file system and presents a fake registry and fake C drive for anything running in the sandbox. So, if you do stumble upon something ugly, it can "only" affect the sandbox and not the rest of your hard drive. There is no guarantee that an AV is going to immediately catch something before it can do damage to your system.
I'm not aware of anything else just like Sandboxie. I tend to run a virtual machine and do questionable stuff there...but that's a lot more effort than running Sandboxie.
|My System Specs
|15 Feb 2011
In any case 3.46 is stable enough for me. I don't use it all the time anyway since I make image backups several times a week using Macrium Reflect. Sandboxie is good if you want to follow a link but you're not sure the other end of the link is going to be safe, such as a link to a "funny" video. Run the default browser in Sandboxie as an extra precaution. I'm not a believer in running real-time av as it tends to mess up the functioning of the machine esp if you are running other stuff on and off at the same time. At some point you have to run code on the CPU. If you wear too many rain coats in the shower you never get wet.
Other utilities of the Returnil type that "undo" all changes by rebooting are ok if you want to play around with settings or test some non malicious software. But knowledgeable nasty malware authors know how to hose your bootup, which kills the fix you are counting on. You are better off having backup images with a bootable cd that launches the image restore program.
Macrium Reflect has a good free one but you can see a bunch at:
|My System Specs
|15 Feb 2011
Windows 7 x64 pro/ Windows 7 x86 Pro/ XP SP3 x86
Depends on how sandboxie is used. E.g. I run the browser sandboxed on one of my machines but malware can come by different channels- email programs, infected file transfer from usb drives etc. Then, an AV comes in handy. Also, sandboxie leaves the decision (about what is to be sandboxed) to the user.
An interesting alternative is defensewall. DefenseWall automatically sandboxes your browser, email program, instant messaging, FTP utility and any other program it considers untrustable (contrast with Sandboxie). Read more.

SandBoxie and DefenseWall are a good combo - Gladiator Security Forum
|My System Specs
|15 Feb 2011
I tried a few HIPS type programs. I don't remember for sure if DefenseWall was one of them since it was awhile ago. I didn't notice one that didn't give off funky side effects after a few times opening closing my apps. Also as I mentioned any real knowledgeable hack is going to kill your booting mechanism and go beneath this type of defense. That's one reason I never use "Browser Helper Objects" since that's what hosed my system.
The short of it is, if you really need an image backup anyway, then why surf with a prophylactic all the time? They're way less than perfect and have to reduce machine performance by definition. Also I think they give a false sense of security. People tend to surf into hazardous waters just to see if the protection resists the intrusion.
If I found a seemless one I might try it, but all the ones I tried, even the paid version trial editions, I got weird action in my browser. I couldn't see running that all the time. But everyone has different comfort levels. I think what's really needed is a system image that's burned into firmware, not flashed. You have a configured system with your base apps burned into a chip. If things get hosed, you power down, power up, then hit the "Re-Image" button to lay that back on the HD. It would just save messing with external drives. But that would be more for like an office where there were hundreds of machines with a standard set of apps. Then people would just back up data.
edit: but since the author of Sandboxie is recommending av in combination with Sandboxie for 64 bit sytems there may be a good reason to do it. Esp. if you could configure it in such a way as to minimize the performance hit. But some authors like the author of BD Rebuilder won't even listen to your issues if you are running av. There's just no way to tell if the program has an issue or the av is interfering when you have 2 or more variables in the equation. I would never try to do video conversions or other intensive stuff with av on. Then again I don't have a CPU with more than 4 cores to try it. Maybe if you have enough horsepower you can eat the performance hit. These are just my prejudices gained from experience. Not some scientific study or anything. :)

Several times in my career, I had to answer customer calls – still do. Well, I take that back, I've always answered customer calls. But at several times I was the primary technical support engineer. On "the front lines" as we called it, we got all kinds of questions: "how many pins on your SO-8 package?" "do you make linears?" "what frequency do your garage doors operate at?" We also got questions on parts that were no longer available, obsolete years ago. This was before the internet. This was when the communal computer had a 5 ¼ inch floppy, 512kB of RAM and a 10MB hard drive which was useless for real-time customer calls. So we looked information up in databooks.
For anyone under about 35 years old, you may have never seen one. You can find old ones on e-bay, now. They were paperback; about 7" x 9" and some were well over 2" thick. Semiconductor companies gave them away, of course, because that was the only way you knew what products they offered. Big companies like National, T.I. and Motorola had so many product lines that their collection of databooks took up several linear feet of shelf space. Engineers had bookshelves full of them; some companies had librarians to manage them. Unlike the internet, it took so long to publish them that they were always out of date – there were new parts. So there was a steady flow of replacement books and many put the date on the spine so that you could see if yours was current or not. Some companies printed "new releases" databooks with only the new parts that were released since the previous book.
Databooks were a place to take notes, a method of organization, a source of education on the state of the art of electronics, an anticipated experience not unlike Christmas morning as a child. Engineers took notes in the margins of the pages. They dog-eared pages of parts they used frequently. They would sketch circuit ideas and spill coffee on the pages. Databooks spent time in the lab, in the cafeteria and who knows where else. Engineers would read databooks like a textbook, learning application tricks, learning about brand new types of integrated circuits. Until parts got too complicated, the entire circuit schematic of the chip was usually included. People had time to study them and figure out how the chips worked. Instead of looking for a function that you needed, people would scan the entire book to see what was new. New chips with new application circuits would create new product ideas. I always looked forward to getting a new databook.
As a self-described micro-historian, I enjoy the hunt for arcane information. I had some much worn books with yellowed pages containing just that one piece of information that some frustrated engineer would need the week between Christmas and New Years. For whatever reason, newer editions of a databook edited out certain sections or often certain parts. Usually I would find the oldest copies on the shelf of some old-timer who would grudgingly let me have the book (they did everything grudgingly). The normal protocol was to write your last name on the top edge of the book to prevent its theft. I had a great collection of names that were not mine.
But sometime around 1992, beta copies of Mosaic started popping up on SPARC workstations and people found akebono.stanford.edu and – fast-forward a couple decades – now I can get any data sheet I want on my phone. As nostalgic as I may be and despite the effort spent on my databook collection, things are so much better today. I have one old databook on my shelf for old times' sake. It is a 1985 Linear Technology databook. The name on top is "RITTER" – Ed Ritter was the second marketing engineer at LTC, I believe. But I never look at it. I don't keep hard copies of any data sheet. It's just so much faster to find things online.
I also have a FEB 1973 Linear Applications Handbook from National Semiconductor that I bought on e-bay. It has application notes AN-1 through AN-75 and linear briefs LB-1 through LB-20 – although a lot of them are missing and a lot of them have no author identified. I believe as engineers left the company that they were edited out. The list of authors includes many of the characters I've mentioned in other posts: Dobkin, Frederiksen, Vender Kooi, Widlar and even Yamatake. One is an old boss of mine and I never knew he wrote any app notes. And a few others will be mentioned in future posts, I'm sure.
I have a question for you. (Seriously, I want to know… send me an email or leave a comment.) What replaced databooks in your everyday life? Not the internet. No, not as a source of circuit specifications, but as a vehicle to deliver information you didn't know you needed. How do you stumble across new circuit techniques? How do you learn what's new? Or do you really "browse" with your "browser"? How do you organize your "feeds" and remember things that you may not need right at this moment? Was it fun to skim through a new databook and, if so, what replaced that as a source of fun? I assume that for legitimate projects that you have some sort of online repository, but what about future projects or toys for the home lab?
When I was a kid, my family had an encyclopedia set. As a young engineer, I had databooks. I read everything. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to read some emails.

Hi Rachael
I agree, there is a limited amount of resources that B2B manufacturing/industrial sectors can use. When I saw this group I thought it would be a great idea to join - my agency tends to focus on these sectors, along with IT resellers and I thought I'd make myself available for those that might need my services :)
Hello Rachael
What a good idea!
I work with companies in both sectors and there is no reason why marketing communications for them should be any less creative than in the consumer arena. One of the problems, I believe, is that marketers and communicators working in those fields are not always ready and willing to try new approaches and I think we're duty bound to keep refreshing their options.
A construction marketing bod here - specifically construction products.
B2B has in many ways been the poor relation to the glamorous B2C world for a long time, but the challenges are often more complex, and longer term.
Be interested in discussing/swapping ideas.

Buddy Club Press Release – New S2000 AP1/AP2 Extended Ball Joints!
As you track your vehicle and experience tremendous lateral G-forces while entering and exiting turns, your suspension geometry changes. As your car experiences sideways forces, the upper and lower control arms change angles in relation to one another. The resulting change could pivot the centerline of the affected wheel in such a way as to produce a significant change in camber, resulting in less tire contact with the ground and, subsequently, poor traction and stability.
To counteract this problem, Buddy Club has released the P1 Racing Extended Ball Joint, an adjustable ball joint that connects to the lower control arm, not the upper, thereby allowing a more correct and apt suspension geometry between upper and lower control arms to be maintained; this insures a more predictable roll center. The roll center adjuster is an essential part of any tuned suspension on a street or track vehicle lowered 2 inches or more. Not only will this particular kit help maintain proper roll center. It also contains our patent pending method to adjust camber. Now S2000 owners can quickly and effectively adjust camber at the track. Whether it's changing track conditions or a just dialing in your setup. The front kit has 4 levels of camber adjustment from zero to minus 5 degrees.

We've expect for some time to see BMW Motorrad debut a bagger model, based off its K1600 touring bike platform, and now the wait is over. The attractive BMW Concept 101 teased this much to us, and today that speculation can be put to rest, with the release of the 2017 BMW K1600B.
Like the Honda Gold Wing F6B, the concept behind this six-cylinder motorcycle here is pretty simple, and its hope is to go after a large motorcycle segment that is dominated by one brand: Harley-Davidson.
As has been BMW's playbook for the 2017 model year, the K1600B floods a space that BMW is already a heavy-hitter in, offering even more options to riders who are looking to pound some pavement, this time with some bagger appeal.
Helping make that appeal, BMW's inline-six engine will make 160hp for the 2017 model year, thanks to Euro 4 regulations. The BMW K1600B will also see a 2.75″ seat height drop, fixed side cases (hence the "bagger" name), and various subtle styling changes from the GT/GTL models.

You're reading this because you'd like to know more about online Bible study and how it works. At the Bible Cafe, we started blogging online Bible studies to connect with other women who share a common interest. We've met some wonderful women and shared stories of faith and personal growth during our study together. We'll be celebrating our one year anniversary in June, after completing a total of seven online studies together. Since we're still new, we've had some successes and failures in online Bible study and we learn as we go. We're setting a model for other online studies, as many women have come to us asking how to start their own online small group.
One of the biggest advantages we've had in online Bible study has been the ability to connect with women all over the world. We've enjoyed chatting with women who are in different cultures, different climates and even different time zones. It's been exciting to come together with a common interest: God, faith and the Bible. We've had as many as 65 people in study together, and as little as four women in study together, and through it all, we've enjoyed the common link of connecting through the Bible Cafe blog.
Another advantage we'd enjoyed is the convenience allowed by online Bible study. Since we are located around the world, the online study allows us to come to the Bible Cafe, read updates from the small group leaders, and post comments- anytime we like! This flexibility has worked well for women unable to attend regular church groups, that usually meet one night a week or in the morning. Some women are just too overloaded with family and work commitments- and miss the treasures associated with a womens Bible study. Our hope is that by participating in online study, these women will be encouraged to study in church small groups, where the discussions are face-to-face and lasting friendships are created.
You'll also enjoy the audio/video sessions available for your online study. Many authors offer these on MP3 format, so you can download the lesson to your computer, iTunes or i Phone. You'll love listening to the message over and over during the week, as you carpool your kids or commute to work. The passion of the author's voice flows through the audio/video sessions and really contributes to the study. In online study, you're responsible to purchase your own audio/video session for your private use, and the current cost is $3.99 to $4.99 per session. In a 6-week study, this will cost you about $24.00 plus the cost of your workbook, so online study is more expensive than church study, if you decide to buy the audio sessions. Beth Moore offers many of her studies on CD format, so you can purchase the entire series and listen to your Bible study at home or in your car. The CD series make great gifts…I'm always placing these on my birthday or Christmas wish list!
A disadvantage for any Bible study has been the lack commitment from those women participating. Many will purchase the workbooks, read the first two weeks, and then drop out of the study for lack of interest. While we've also seen this happen in church small groups, there is less accountability in online study so your commitment to participate needs to be higher. During one study we implemented a "Shepherd" for the group, with the purpose of "herding the sheep" and finding those who were not posting comments in the study. It's a great concept and has worked at our church small group, so we'll locate another Shepherd for the Bible Cafe and resume this valuable resource. Women need to be accountable to their own goals and online study needs to support them to reach their Bible study goal.
Sometimes blogs can provide too much information, just another email or RSS feed coming into your "to do" box. So we've decided to eliminate the daily blog posts and provide a weekly summary post for the current study. This ensures the posts are timely and content rich, and allows the flexibility to incorporate "live study" via media resources. Watch for updates during our new Summer Bible Study.
Overall, online Bible Study has been a tremendous resource and motivates others to read their Bible. It serves the purpose for which it was designed-leading women to a closer relationship with God.

Why You Should Join Online Small Group
We encourage you to find a Bible study that works best for you, and once you make the commitment, continue the study until the end. Always remember that Satan's goal is to derail your study and draw you away from intimacy with God, so be alert to the prowling lion. Be prepared to stand firm in faith and maintain your focus on God.
Serving Him,
