Through the 100,000 Homes Campaign, Community Solutions created a movement that helped 186 US cities move over 100,000 medically vulnerable and chronically homeless Americans into permanent housing.
Focus: Urban development, homelessness & housing
Geographic Area of Impact: North America
Model: Hybrid non-profit
Number of Direct Beneficiaries: 105,000+ (2014)
Annual Budget: USD $7.3 million (2014)
Percentage Earned Revenue: 32% (2014)
The Social Problem
By 2014 counts, there are just under 600,000 homeless people in the US on any given night, but for about 84,000 of them homelessness has become a chronic condition. In 2010, few municipal officials understood how to turn good intentions into effective action, lacking the tools to identify and prioritise the most vulnerable homeless people, use data to track performance over time, and coordinate federal, state, and local resources. As a result, the most vulnerable often went unnoticed and unserved while limited housing was typically allocated to those who were most adept at filling out government forms.
Innovation and Activities
The 100,000 Homes Campaign was a national learning and action network, based in grassroots organizing, which leveraged a collaborative approach to system-change. It grew out of the shared experience of Rosanne Haggerty and Becky Kanis Margiotta in working to solve homelessness in New York. Between July 2010 and July 2014, Community Solutions worked with municipal officials, homelessness NGOs, and federal agencies to assist 186 communities in moving more than 105,000 homeless people, including veterans and people living with mental illness, into permanent housing with accompanying supportive services.
These astounding results are based on a methodology that Haggerty and Margiotta pioneered in the mid-2000s. Community Solutions open sourced this methodology, guiding its implementation and improvement in each community that joined the Campaign. The flexible methodology includes several core strategies: 1) volunteers canvass neighbourhoods to identify every homeless person on their streets using an assessment tool grounded in evidence; 2) local teams set ambitious, monthly housing placement targets to put their communities on track to end homelessness; 3) local teams learn from peers and coaches to better access and coordinate existing resources, which are often fragmented, unconnected, and sometimes even territorial.
Based on the success of the Campaign, Community Solutions recently launched Zero: 2016 to help 71 US communities end chronic and veteran homelessness outright by December 2016. Their methodology is also being adopted in Canada, Australia and Europe.
The Entrepreneur
Rosanne Haggerty is a globally recognized leader in housing and human services innovation. After volunteering at a youth homeless shelter in the 1980s, she founded Common Ground, which she grew into one of the nation's largest builders and operators of housing for homeless people. She is an Ashoka Senior Fellow and a MacArthur Foundation Fellow. In 2011 she co-founded Community Solutions with Becky Kanis Margiotta to scale the ideas she developed at Common Ground nationwide.

Welcome To The Burnsville Chamber of Commerce!
Thank you for visiting the Burnsville Chamber of Commerce.
Who We Are
The Burnsville Chamber is a membership based business organization that strives to connect businesses to each other and to the community. We exist to grow the local economy by helping businesses succeed through engaging programs, services and advocacy.
We are here to serve the needs of our members and to provide helpful information about Burnsville. If you don't see what you need here please reach out and we will do what we can to help! Call the Chamber at 952-435-6000 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"I've been a member of the Burnsville Chamber for over 20 years. Along the way, I have made some lifelong friends through the Chamber and I have had the opportunity to work with folks who are very interested in the success of the community and their businesses.
Burnsville has a very long history of support and collaboration from the city, schools, government, business and the Chamber. This collaboration has led to Burnsville being a desired community in which to live and operate a business."
As a long standing member of The Burnsville Chamber of Commerce, I have been privileged to represent the Pepsi Beverages Company within the Burnsville community. Over the last 30+ years I have been able to meet, do business and become friends with many outstanding, professional business people.
This was due to the exceptional networking and events offered through the Burnsville Chamber. Their friendly and helpful staff is there to assist in any way they can. Pepsi is proud and look forward to being a member for another 30+ years to such a terrific organization.
"Becoming a Burnsville Chamber Member was the smartest marketing source I added for my business in the last 2 years! I will put emphasis on not only "being a member," but the critical need to attend ALL of the networking events, chamber luncheons, Coffee Breaks and After Hours events if you truly want to get the most out of your membership.
I have personally seen a 300% increase in my business just from networking at all the events. Not only that, but I have found valuable business partnerships that keep me motivated, maintain a way to stay accountable as a small business owner, and have a great support group to bounce ideas off of and network with. Becoming an Ambassador was just the icing on the cake! What a great program!"

Chapter 21
Helen keeps hunting with Mabel. She actively joins her in the hunt now, making sure that whatever she caught died instantly, not wanting it to suffer any more than it has to. Helen decides that she would rather eat meat that was caught by a hawk than the type that came from a farm where the animal was raised to be slaughtered. When she is with Mabel, she enjoys the thrill of the hunt. Whenever she has to finish off the prey though it sobers her up and makes her realize the mortality of everything around her.
In her journal, she shares about a particular instance that occurred right after a hunt with Mabel. They were returning from a hunt and saw a group of onlookers staring at a sick rabbit. Once they left, she put the rabbit out of its misery...

The extraordinary circumstances of the attack on Olympic figure skater Nancy Kerrigan, which led immediately back to Portland, and to Tonya Harding and her inner circle of associates, created a frenzy of international media coverage.
Investigative reporters at The Oregonian had learned that it was possible a warrant, either for a search or an arrest, would be served at the home of a Harding relative (no one involved can remember exactly whose home it was) on January 11, 1994, only five days after Kerrigan was hit above the knee with a police baton by hired thug Shane Stant.
Brent Wojahn, a staff photographer for The Oregonian at the time, went to the location and parked his car down the street from the house. Armed with a 500mm lens aimed out the car window, he waited. Several hours passed before he saw Harding and Jeff Gillooly arrive at the house, but the angle made a picture impossible.
When the couple came outside, Wojahn was able to fire six frames of film before they disappeared. One frame showed Harding's and Gillooly's faces, and a shocking detail few might have expected: Harding was holding a pack of cigarettes in one hand and a lit cigarette in the other; in a month she would leave to compete at the Olympics.
Stake-outs are not all that common in Portland journalism, but this story was different.
"So many times on a stakeout, you come away empty-handed," Wojahn recalled. "This was rewarding because something happened."
By February 1, Gillooly, Stant and Derrick Smith, the getaway car driver, had cut deals with prosecutors and were on their way to jail. Harding would leave for the Olympics two weeks later, where she would finish eighth. Kerrigan, who dedicated herself to rehabilitation after the attack, and to competing in the Games, won the silver medal in women's figure skating.

Castle Age Spreadsheets
A Castle Age Spreadsheet is a spreadsheet (usually made with Microsoft Excel) that contains a whole bunch of useful information. You tell the spreadsheet the things that you own, and it will tell you how to optimize what you have, or what you need to do to achieve certain goals. Once a spreadsheet tells you what you need to do, come back to the wiki to learn how to do it.
Pegasus Released Castle Age Spreadsheet
- Download it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?f=RRD38J1F (Megaupload is no longer online.)
- The spreadsheet is made using Microsoft Excel 2007. If you are using Microsoft Excel 2003 (found in the Microsoft Office 2003 suite), you need to download this converter from Microsoft in order to use it. If you are using the new Microsoft Office 2010 is perfectly compatible and when you save is automatically upgrade to the new format. Pay attention to the new setting about security and macros introduced in this new version, maybe you need to change the settings to allow editing and for using the macros.
- If you use Office 2003, you will get some error messages when using the spreadsheet, but overall, the spreadsheet still works well.
- You shouldn't run into problems if you use OpenOffice's Calc (an Excel-like program).
NB: the last version is 4.01 03FEB11.
Castle Age Monster Damage/Loot, Goblin Emporium, and Chest Rolls Spreadsheet

Castle Age Groups
Right now we are looking for more Castle Age groups, and links to their homepage/Facebook page/forums/whatever their main location is. The following are a list of known groups, with unknown homepages:
- Castle Age Army Add
- Castle Age Army Premier Recruit Center
- Castle Age Chronics
- Castle Age Fanatics
- Castle Age Treasure Seekers
- Dragon Achievement
- Warrior's Pride
If you create a subsection below for a group, please do so in the section that best describes the group. If you are a monster slaying group that also socializes, please put it in the monster slaying section. Also, when adding a group, add the group in alphabetical order. Many of the groups below were described by Vincent, who isn't in many of these groups. If you wish to add something to a group description, feel free to do so.
Monster Slaying Groups
Festival Monsters
Festival Tower 1 monster kill group
Festival Monsters Tower II
Festival Tower 2 monster kill group
Castle Age Helpers Army (CAHA)
This is a group of people who kill monsters together.
Castle Age Monster Slayers

Castle Age Speed Kill Group
The Castle Age Speed Kill Group is a group of people who specialize in speed kills and getting Gold Medals for monsters. All monsters are scheduled, and announced at the beginning of each week so that you can plan (and be ready) for which monsters you want to fight.
Dragon Slayers United (DSU)
The DSU is a group of people who kill monsters together. Monsters are mostly not scheduled, but they have a few ground rules in terms of summoning monsters. Don't summon a monster if the group is currently killing the same kind of monster already (don't summon a Genesis when the group is already fighting a Genesis). Any "Alpha" monsters or similar (like Azriel), should be scheduled in advance, and if possible, not summoned when another Alpha-like monster is still alive. All members are expected to help with all siege weapons, even for monsters you aren't actively fighting. They make it easy to siege the monsters, and when you summon a monster, you have the full support of the DSU to help you with your sieges.
Mythical Creature Slayers
This is a monster slaying group. They have a copy of Lenna's guide of the basics of Castle Age.
Order of the Black Hand (OBH)
This is a monster slaying group. Only members know more about them.
Castle Age Monster Destroyer Squad

There is also a topic for mass adds and add me's one by one. Currently at 56 k members a great site for helping with a critical and finding the specific monster you are looking to attack. It is also very organized and has just about anything you are looking for. Also known as CAMDS
☼SSL☼ Sentinels of Silver Light
This is a monster slaying group. They Mainly only fight member battles.
☼SSL☼ Sentinels of Silver Light
This is a monster slaying, assisting with clicks and slayers, have 2 guilds, and Team battles group with almost 700 members.
PvP Groups
Chain Gang
This is a group of PvP enthusiasts, who like to chain people. Here is a list of requirements to join:
- General attitude towards the game accounts for the largest part of what we will use to decide. We want people that enjoy the game, that do not whine and moan about everything, that do not take in game action personally without a good reason, and that respect other members/players. Now this doesn't mean that we think you shouldn't chain attack, because we do. ;)
- BSI (Battle strength Index) of at least 5 to start. This is figured by taking your (attack+defense)/level. A BSI of 5 is a good starting point, but we do encourage this to be higher because it is a good indicator of your PvP ability within your level bracket. Please do not include bonuses from generals in the calculation.
- A Win% of about 70% based on KEEP STATS and not achievement stats. This is figured by taking (wins/(wins+losses))x100. 70% is where I consider a person to be a good PvPer if they do not hide.
- You must join our email add list. For the longevity of the group, and so members are more at ease with each other, we require that all members add each other. The email list is the best way to go about this that I have found. Don't worry, the email list is only viewable by members that have been approved to see the sanctum (member only area).
- Mastery of the game basics is also required. Basically, I'll scout your keep. If you have been playing for a few months, you will have some crystals, some epic loot, and PvP record with activity. We do not ask much from this other than you have played enough to have the basics down.

Social Groups
Ye Olde Itchy & Scratchy Dragon Hunters Guild(e) TM
One of the first of the Monster Hunting Groups but it soon devolved into an informational clearing house and training guilde for other guild leaders... Run by the Gnome it is an OPEN group anyone can join and leave and most members belong to other groups also. The Main reason to join is to get the Information E-mails that come out whenever the Gnome is not asleep too much... the other reason is to get assistance in working out disputes with other guildes as basically the GUILD(E) is well known Nuetral Territory and the Gnome is too inoffensive to worry anybody too much. So if you have a monster to kill... Information to Share or need Nuetral Third Party help for your interguild issues... come to the Gnome and his Orchish Law Firm of Dewey Cheatem And Howe (btw anything your dwarven miners may have said regarding The Gnome is LIBEL)
Castle Age Legends
Castle Age Legends is one of the oldest Castle Age groups around. They are made up of people who know how to play the game, and many of its players are legends... or at least very well known and respected on the forums.
As of this writing, the current requirements to join are:
- You must be at least AROUND LEVEL 200 with at least Rank 16 (Baron)
- They must also have a plus battle record of 10,000 wins. (AKA win minus losses =10,000+)
- They must hold ALL of the ARTIFACTS. (Crystals, Map of Atlantis)
- They must also have 4 months minimum playing experience and know why they want to join the group .

WEST DUNDEE — An environmentalist involved in projects to preserve the Fox River Valley has recommended to two towns that they require substantial setbacks for new buildings along the waterway, a 200-foot riverbank zone in West Dundee and 500 feet in Elgin.
Patrick Reese, president of Friends of the Fox River, a coalition of citizens and organizations formed last year, said the setback is needed to prevent construction of condominiums on bluffs 100 feet from the river. A developer is planning the condos on a 315-acre tract on which annexation to West Dundee is pending.

Want to change keyboard buttons
Im maby planning on buying a german netbook, but it comes with a german keyboard.
How can i chance that keyboard to be standard qwerty again?
(change Z to Y and vice versa)
the netbook comes with windows seven starter, but will upgrade it to home premium.

Windows 8.1 Pro RTM x64
Hi borgqueenx,
It might be possible to physically swap the keys around, although you will need to be careful if you do that. Alternatively, you might be able to overlay stick-on letters to the keys (Letraset) to show the desired letter(s). Another alternative is that you leave the keyboard as it is and just get used to the layout. It is perfectly possible to have Windows 7 in one language, and to have the keyboard set in another.
|My System Specs
|17 Jun 2010
Windows 7 x64 pro/ Windows 7 x86 Pro/ XP SP3 x86
Open the control panel, then click on "Region and Language", then click the tab " Keyboards and languages", then under that click on "Change Keyboards". Click "Add" and check "English" > "Keyboard" > "US." Press "OK." Set the default language to "English (United States) - US," and remove the German/Qwertz keyboard layout.
Your keyboard will now function like a Qwerty keyboard, though the keys still have the Qwertz letters printed on them. You can place small stickers with the letters written or printed on them over the keys that are different between the two layouts, as Dwarf has suggested.

How about a USB travel keyboard of the appropriate language layout? 7 will handle it.

I am Professor at the Department of Business and Economics at University of Southern Denmark. I hold a PhD in Economics from Trinity College Dublin and a PhD in Economic History from Lund University. My MA and BA have been obtained in Economics and Finance from the University of Zurich.
My research interests are mainly in economic history and cultural economics, where I am (surprisingly) ranked within the top 5%. Most of my work touches also on urban economics (creative clusters) and labor economics (especially migration of creative people). I am interested in the historical incidence, development and long-term importance of cultural heritage and artistic activity in Europe. Among others, I have studied the extent of migration and geographic concentration of classical composers, the impact of geographic clustering on creative production and the cost of such peer-interaction in terms of adverse health effects and the influence of war on conflict-induced migration.
I have published in peer-reviewed international journals such as Review of Economics and Statistics, Journal of Urban Economics, Oxford Economic Papers, Social Science & Medicine and Journal of Cultural Economics. My studies have been awarded the ACEI Presidents Prize for Best Paper, the First Prize Award at European Science Days and receive good media coverage (e.g., Washington Post, Telegraph, GEO). I was previously awarded the Polish Prime Minister Scholarship and was engaged in a number of entrepreneurial and consulting projects.
But much more interesting: Who are You? Please write me.
Ranking of Economists
Rankings are a strange passion of many economists (including rather myself). According to the Ideas RePEc Ranking of June 2018, I am among the top 1% young economists (ranked 87. out of ca. 19'000) whose first publication of any kind appeared fewer than 10 years ago. Considering the publication output of the last 10 years, I am globally ranked among top 5% economists and top 15 in Denmark. My official comment: "Don't trust rankings!"
Sharing Data on Composer
Please contact me if you are interested in academic collaboration or if you wish to use my data on music composers - happy to share! One database records detailed annual migration patterns for a global sample of 512 prominent composers born between the XVI and the XX centuries. The second database provides background information and a number of word count indicators for around 15'000 composers - all composers listed in the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. A third database provides lifetime well-being indices for Mozart, Beethoven and Liszt, based on the emotional content disclosed in their letters.

Hi guys, welcome to Book Munchies' Musing about Things: A Discussion (Post). Inspired by memes such as Should Be Reading's Musing Monday & Caffeinated Book Reviewer's Caffeinated Confessions (etc.), this is a Book Munchies discussion post, where I'll be rambling about (mostly) book-related things and hopefully you guys will join in on the fun too (:
So today's topic is: Those Genres You Don't Read
Everyone has their favourite sub-genres (mine are ones with magic/dragons/fairy tales), but what about the those (very specific) ones you just can't get into. For me, it's books with fairies and mermaids. It has become some-what of an irrational dislike for those types of books.
I don't know what is about them, but for some reason I just can't. I've read a few fairy books but never loved them (and no, I haven't read Julie Kagawa's series yet….) and I've been trying to read a mermaid book for ages, but for the life of me can't get into them. Sigh.
Between those two, I have yet to find one that I really want to read or enjoyed. The only exception is Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, which feel I was sort of tricked into since the fae aspect didn't really pop up until later in the series and it was too late to back out, ha. But I bring this up because Maas' new series A Court of Throne and Roses is about faes. And I'm super tempted to pick it up because I do love her books, but I fear my dislike for faes will be problematic.
Oh, and very vampires and werewolves based books I've taken a indefinite hiatus from too. Since The Coldest Girl in Coldtown (which drove me bonkers), I haven't read any. There was Ilona Andrew's Clean Sweep (which I loved), but that one's more the characters happen to be a vampire or a werewolf and less because they are, if you know what I mean. I did love vampires and werewolves once upon a time and I might go back one day, but until than I'll stick to ones were they're not the highlight of the book.
Do you guys have any genre that's a no-go, irrational or not? Or are you a pretty free-for-all, "I'll read all the things (if the synopsis appeals to me)!" kind of person?
Any ones that you've taken a break from? – because you're bored of them, or many a bad experience have turned you off of them?

My mum has bought some Omega-3 capsules, and wants my brother to take them. He is vegan, the capsules are vegetarian. But I am not sure if they're vegan. Here are the ingredients:
Flaxseed Oil
Capsule Shell (Modified Starch, Glycerol, Gelling Agent: Carageenan; Dissodium Phosphate),
Vitamin E
The company does normally label things as being vegan if they are vegan, which makes me think they are only vegetarian. Can anyone give me some insight into those ingredients? THANK!
Can someone tell me if this is vegan?

Carageenan is a seaweed derivative, so it is vegan.

Sloppy List Management Practices That Can Get Your Emails Blocked
At MailChimp, we manage over 65,000 subscriber lists, with over 75 million recipients in them. We've seen a sloppy list or two, and have dealt with a delivery problem or two. So we've learned a thing or two about how sloppy lists happen, and how to prevent them. Most sloppy lists come from ignorance, not evil. But that doesn't make it any less stupid. So here are some stupid list management mistakes to avoid:
- Don't send to a really old list. If you do, ISPs will say, "Siiiigh. Looks like this sucker bought an old email list from a spammer, and is trying to contact a bunch of email addresses that have expired, or never existed in the first place. So let's block him." People ditch or change or lose their email addresses after about a year (see this post on address-abandonment from Word To The Wise.). If you haven't been sending regular email campaigns to your customer list, you'll need to clean that list out before you begin emailing them any serious campaigns. Note that "clean your list before sending" does not mean, "blast an email, and see who bounces." Remove emails that are too old, remove "role" email addresses (webmaster@, sales@, info@, etc), and remove anyone that did not specifically request email marketing from you. We've heard that there are companies who can clean your list for you, but we've never used them ourselves.
- Never, ever, ever purchase an email list. If you want to grow your list, partner with a company that has the same audience that you target, and have them send an email on your behalf in order to get those people to subscribe to your list. Here's an excellent example of how to do that, and here's an article with mistakes to avoid.
- Use the confirmed opt-in method on your email signup forms. This method sends a confirmation email that the subscriber has to click in order to complete the subscriber process. If you just use the "single opt-in" method, your list is vulnerable to prank submissions, typos, and spambots that plug in spam trap addresses.
- Never scrape lists from websites, or assume that you can just add "sales@" or "info@" onto the front of a company's domain name in order to reach its "decision maker." Yes, I've had to shut down accounts for doing such idiotic things with their lists. It only takes one or two spam complaints from these "role addresses" to get yourself blocked. Some websites actually are setup to track email scraping.
- Educate your sales team on email marketing laws and best practices. Tell them they can't just export a giant email list from your CRM of "prospects I've met over the last 10 years at various tradeshows" and "blast an email to 'em." It's possible your sales people don't care one bit about email etiquette. They just want to make their commissions (which is the way it should be) but there are laws that can land them in jail, or get them fined by the FTC. And jail time and fines can really eat into their commissions. If that doesn't work, you'll need to learn how sales people talk. Hint: try some profanity (and here's a slightly-safer-for-work version).
- If you're an agency that's helping a client send email marketing for the first time, here's a guide on how to tell if your client might be a spammer.
- Don't just email all the contacts in your Outlook Address Book. There are email addresses in your address book that you probably don't know are in there, like: tech support contacts from companies you've requested help from (techies get really mad when they receive emails from people they don't recognize, and they know how to report you for it, fast), and companies who've sent you email order receipts; friends and family (who may enjoy personal emails from you, but not necessarily your company)
- Tradeshow lists can be dangerous. Here are some tips for dealing with tradeshow email lists.

What year did you start tattooing?
I got my apprenticeship in 2011. I started tattooing pretty much a year after, so in 2012. I did the usual walk ins and what ever I could to learn the skill. I've been doing custom work for the best part of 2 years I'd say!
Did you have a formal apprenticeship?
I'd say my apprenticeship was pretty formal! I didn't touch a machine for the first year! The first 6 months I spent working the desk and cleaning floors. I can't say for certain I had the hardest apprenticeship in the world but it wasn't a walk in the park. I feel like I earned my right to be in that shop learning and I'm still thankful to this day for everyone who helped me to get to where I am. I'm still based in the studio where I was taught and still work alongside my mentor.
You have a very unique style, where do you draw inspiration for your work?
I'd say my main inspiration comes from Europe and Australia! The way they approach their work is different to the usual way you'd see in Americana tattoos. I like the use of weird and crazy color combinations. I like to think I do my own thing with what I've seen out there.
If you had to describe your style to someone who has never seen your work, how would you describe it?
Describing my style is always the hardest; it's a mix of a lot of styles. I use strong outlines, which are usually seen in traditional tattooing, but then I blend my colors rather than whip shading like you would in more realistic work. The style is branded 'neo traditional' but I'm not 100% sure on the whole branding a style. It's hard to compare artwork to anyone else because it's all so totally different.
Have you always worked in this style? How has your work evolved since you started tattooing?
I feel like my style has developed over the years I've been tattooing. When I started out I was just doing what ever I could get my hands on to learn, but then when I discovered the whole European movement of tattooing I wanted to hone in on that a little. I think I took on a lot of techniques from that movement but then added my own flair to it, or at least I hope I have!
What kind of tattoos do you look forward to doing?
At the moment I have the most fun doing stylized portraits. Whether it's of famous people or of family members. It blows me away that people still want me to do portraits of their family and loved ones, my approach isn't super realistic so it means a lot to me that people support my style of how I'd do them.
What does your wait list look like?
My wait list isn't super huge, I only really book out 2 months at a time because I like to be able to plan my traveling around my work. If I take bookings for too long of a time I feel a bit overloaded with work and like I've taken way too much on!
It is safe to say you are a traveler, what country have you visited that had the most strict tattoo laws?
I haven't visited every country in the world but the US seems pretty tight on strictness! I've never worked in the US because I wouldn't want to get banned from even visiting the country! Maybe one day but we will have to see what happens.
Favorite country to visit for work and why?
My favorite country to travel and work in is either Germany or Australia. Germany because I have so many friends out there in the tattoo industry, but Australia because I was lucky enough to travel there and work a full month. The people I met and worked with out there were amazing and I'm stoked to head back over there to see them all again!
What does the rest of your year look like?
The rest of my year looks fairly quiet for now. Heading to Germany to work next month and hopefully Australia at the end of the year again. I'll do a few UK guest spots in the mean time but like I said nothing has been organized yet!

text: New tech powers IDG Enterprise's LeadAccel Published on April 01, 2011. In January, IDG Enterprise introduced LeadAccel, a new lead-generation program that provides lead nurturing and scoring, as well as consulting services. To power LeadAccel, all of the technology involved in IDG Enterprise's lead-generation process was replaced or enhanced over a period of several months. This included the asset management system, the registration system, the campaign management system, the email system and all of the reporting and analytics systems, said Gregg Pinsky, senior VP-general manager of online operations at IDG Enterprise. (IDG Enterprise comprises CIO, the CIO Executive Council, Computerworld, CSO, Demo, InfoWorld, ITworld and Network World.) "We came out with LeadAccel to distinguish our position in the marketplace as a premium provider of leads," Pinsky said. "We track a user's consumption of specific types of content to see what they're consuming, how much and how often. We score leads based on how they are moving through the [various stages of] the buying process and send them different content at different times based on their behaviors." LeadAccel packages three key services for marketers: 1) An engagement profile for each lead that lists all the topic-specific content that person has accessed, whether it is editorial, the advertiser's content or content from other vendors; 2) an "actionable" score for each lead that combines the goals of the campaign with the prospect's demonstrated interest in the topic; and 3) a plan designed to move prospects through the purchasing process by serving content assets in an ordered sequence until the target score is achieved, at which time the lead is delivered directly into to the client's customer relationship management platform. Because every client has a different way of defining leads, nurturing leads and deciding when the lead is ready to be turned over to the sales team, each one is assigned a lead consultant. These consultants help design the programs, monitor them and provide guidance on how clients can make adjustments during the program to ensure that they achieve their goals. LeadAccel is priced as an add-on to lead-generation programs, which charge on a cost-per-lead (CPL) basis. "Let's say you have 1,000 leads negotiated on the standard CPL price, based on the demographics, and category and so forth. With LeadAccel, we get a fee to nurture every one of those 1,000," Pinsky said. "Having these systems in place can drive growth through the LeadAccel product, but it is a foundation that can be used in other areas of our business, such as marketing our own events and other products and services," he added. —M.G.

The already crowded grocery store segment may soon face another challenge--home delivery by Amazon. Amazon has been delivering fresh foods such as eggs to customers in its home base of Seattle for about five years, but it now plans to expand the service to other markets, starting with Los Angeles and San Francisco, and eventually rolling out in as many as 40 cities, according to Business Insider. The company aims to improve its profit margins on food products by using the same facilities and equipment to deliver its non-perishable products, such as electronics.
So is this a real threat to supermarkets and warehouse clubs? Or a possibility for disaster? Currently, it's unknown whether Amazon's food delivery program in Seattle is profitable.

As u see from my screenshot, what i have here is my program thus far.
The first, 2nd and 3rd tabs retrieve data from web (xml) n is displayed as a list.
So If i change from tab1 to tab 2, it will checked the web for data.
I was planning to used ASYNCTASK here but apparently there was a error and I was unable to execute the line
- Code: Select all
error msg = Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method execute(Object...) from the type AsyncTask
Then i tried
- Code: Select all
new aSynctask.execute();
error msg = aSynctask.execute cannot be resolved to a type
I noticed that the tutorials for Asynctask is always used in the onClick of a button, but i put my code in the onCreate() of an activity. So i was wondering if that was any difference at all.
- Code: Select all
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
hello = extras.getString("selection");
source = extras.getBoolean("Searchbox");
new aSynctask.execute();
DoubleTextAdapter dta = do_update();
ListView lv = getListView();
If anyone has some example of AsyncTask being used in onCreate() or any can provide any tips, i will be very grateful.
Please Advice,
Teck Chai

Exciting research into the science of fat loss has uncovered simple hacks that reduce or eliminate most of the challenges you face if you're struggling to lose weight.
Many of these hacks are small adjustments that are almost effortless.
A few hacks take effort but reward you with greatly enhanced results over the old ways of losing weight.
With these breakthroughs losing up to a pound a day is finally possible.
Sounds interesting, doesn't it?
We've gathered all the fat loss hacks, translated them from science jargon into easy to understand language, and organized them into a simple system that you can download from this website.
Here's just a sample of what we uncovered - you'll find more on the next page...
FOOD HACKS: A Simple Cooking Technique That Cuts The Calories & Glycemic Impact In Rice, Pasta, And Potatoes In Half
A researcher discovered a technique that cuts the calories of rice, pasta, and potatoes in half.
This does NOT involve brown rice, wheat pasta, and sweet potatoes.
Traditional rice, pasta, and potatoes can now be made weight loss friendly when you prepare them with this special cooking technique.
It also transforms the fast digesting carbs which are terrible if you're trying to lose weight, into slow digesting carbs which are much better for you. That means you will no longer spike your blood sugar when you enjoy these foods.
And it does NOT affect the taste.
Until now you've been told you must eliminate these three tasty carb-filled foods from your diet if you wanted to lose weight - with this technique you can enjoy a reasonable amount of rice, pasta, and potatoes while your body continues to burn fat.
Best of all it's easy, and there are no weird cooking gadgets to buy.
We've also discovered ways to accelerate your metabolism without dangerous supplements...
METABOLISM HACKS: Turn Stored Fat Into A Special Type Of Fat Your Body Loves To Quickly Burn Up
Scientists have found a way to force your body to burn more fat while you do absolutely nothing. You can do this while sitting at your computer or laying down.
It works by using a simple technique developed by a NASA scientist that transforms stored fat into a special kind of fat that your body quickly burns for energy.
This does not require you to eat less or exercise. The process is almost effortless.
How much fat can you burn?
Multiple studies have shown this technique can burn up to 200 calories an hour. That's 4800 calories a day you could be burning while you sit around the house doing absolutely nothing. (a pound of fat is about 3500 calories).

Tooth sensitivity is a condition that occurs when your gums recede or when the protective enamel of your teeth is worn down, and the dentin is exposed. Cold air as well as cold, hot or very acidic substances that come into contact with the dentin of the teeth can result in severe tooth pain or sensitivity. However, there are ways you can reduce the sensitivity and alleviate the pain.
1. Change Your Toothbrush
Toothbrushes that are hard-bristled and toothpaste that is too abrasive can be harsh for sensitive teeth and can increase the symptoms of the condition. Begin using a soft-bristled toothbrush with a gentler toothpaste and brush your teeth by moving the brush gently in a back and forth motion.
2. Be Careful of What You Consume
There are certain foods and drinks you should avoid if you have sensitive teeth. They include any foods that are highly acidic, such as coffee, pickles, fruits and carbonated drinks. If you are unable to avoid them, try to restrict how much contact the substances have with your teeth.
3. Get Treatment for Gum Recession
When your gums recede, the roots are exposed, and the protective cementum may be worn away. Your dentist can recommend treatments, such as tissue grafts, to restore your gumline.
4. Wear a Mouth Guard
Bruxism, or teeth grinding, can result in sensitive teeth by wearing away the tooth enamel. You can reduce the effects of bruxism by wearing a mouth guard, which can be obtained from your local drug store.
5. Oil Pulling with Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has anti-bacterial properties and can be used to reduce the harmful bacteria that are in your mouth, and as a result, reduce your teeth sensitivity. Simply place about one tablespoon of the oil in your mouth and move it around for 20 minutes.
6. Salt Water
While quickly alleviating your tooth sensitivity symptoms, swishing a solution of salt water around in your mouth can also create an alkaline environment that is inhabitable to harmful bacteria. This should be done twice a day until you have the results you want.
7. Use Toothpaste Made for Sensitive Teeth
There are several brands of toothpaste made specifically for sufferers of tooth sensitivity. The active ingredient, potassium nitrate, aids in blocking the very small tubules in the dentin.
8. Inquire about Painted Teeth
Ask your dentist if you are a candidate for having fluoride varnish, plastic resins or other desensitizing agents painted on your sensitive teeth. Be mindful that you will have to get the barrier reapplied as the material tends to wear off.
9. Cloves and Clove Oil
Cloves are anti-inflammatory and have anesthetic properties that make them ideal for alleviating tooth sensitivity. A paste containing the herb can be applied to the affected teeth, or you can rinse your mouth with a solution of clove oil and water twice a day.
10. Garlic
Garlic contains a high concentration of allicin, a natural anesthetic and it can be applied in the same manner as cloves.
There is no need to endure the pain of tooth sensitivity. Ask your dentist which treatment may work best for you.

Govt not taking honest position on Sri Lankan issue: CPI
New Delhi:CPI today accused the government of not taking an honest position on the Sri Lankan Tamils issue and asked it respond to the resolution adopted by the Tamil Nadu assembly.
"The government is not taking a forthright and honest position on the issue. The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister has been raising the matter through a series of letters to the Prime Minister, the state assembly has also unanimously adopted a resolution. But there is no response from the PMO," party National Secretary D Raja said.
He said such an attitude "undermined the principles of federalism and normal governance. The Prime Minister should respond to the state government's views."
"Some Ministers were using the media to try to respond to the Sri Lankan Tamil issue, but there is nothing formal from the government," Raja said.
Reacting to the war of words between Union Minister Beni Prasad Verma and the Samajwadi Party, he said "there is a big question mark on the survival and continuance of this government. After all, how long can it survive like this?"
The Prime Minister says the government would complete its full term, "but he also speaks about uncertainties," Raja said.

Jerry Brown announced his California Board of Education appointments yesterday -- and they're sure to throw a wrench in the spokes of the Parent Trigger movement.
For a group of parents in Compton, this will change everything.
Parent Trigger is a new law, barely passed through the state Legislature under former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in January, that allows 51 percent of any failing public school's parents to take over the school in one of four ways. The non-profit organization Parent Revolution, currently attempting one such coup at McKinley Elementary in Compton, chose the most extreme option: seize the campus from the district and turn it into a charter school.
Schwarzenegger's appointments to the state board --
including Ben Austin, one of the Parent Revolution directors, and board president Ted Mitchell -- were all famously pro-charter and pro-Parent Trigger. Brown chooses to eliminate both from the board, and the rest of his picks are quite opposite-minded.
Recent UCLA grad Gabe Rose, another of the Parent Revolution directors (alongside ex-State Board member Ben Austin), is crushed, of course. "We were hoping [Brown's] reform instincts would trump politics as usual," he says. "But I guess not." Brown created two charter schools during his term as mayor of Oakland.
Of the seven educational experts taking a seat, there are no blatant charter-school allies. In fact, most have roots on the anti-charter side of the reform spectrum. Here are their names and hometowns:
Carl Anthony Cohn, Palm Springs
Louis "Bill" Honig, Marin
Dr. Michael Kirst, Stanford
Aida Molina, Bakersfield
James Ramos, San Bernardino
Patricia Ann Rucker, Elk Grove
Trish Boyd Williams, San Jose
The average age of the Big Seven is not much smaller than Brown's -- and he's our oldest governor to date. His nominations favor education officials who have been through the ringer once or thrice: They've fucked up, learned from their mistakes (we hope) and lived to tell about it.
At stake right now are the official regulations for the Parent Trigger law. Their final language and passage will now fall under the responsibilities of the fresh (if you could call them that) set of board members. And if the officials' existing political allegiances are any indication, the Compton Unified School District might find a way around converting McKinley Elementary into a charter school by the February deadline set in the interim "emergency" regulations.
Honig and Kirst (rumored to be replacing pro-Trigger Ted Mitchell as board president) previously served on the board during Brown's first run as governor, when he was still strongly pro-union. Cohn and Molina are linked to the Association of California School Administrators, another group with a long history of protecting public-school employees -- one that loudly opposed Schwarzenegger's pro-charter nominations the last four years.
Most extremely, Rucker is currently Legislative Advocate for the California Teachers Association, as anti-charter as a group can get.
In his time as state superintendant, Honig was a major contributor to the "whole language" teaching trend that almost ruined a generation of readers. But -- bucking the typical politician's state of denial -- he admitted all wrongdoing in the 1996 LA Weekly article "Blackboard Bungle":
The situation has deteriorated so far that former California Superintendent of Public Instruction Bill Honig, who oversaw the creation of the reading framework, has distanced himself from it, calling the framework "fatally flawed" particularly for its failure to anticipate the whole language overreaction. Indeed, he is now at the forefront of an opposition movement that is trying to reintroduce intensive teaching of rudimentary reading skills to grade schoolers.
Says Honig today: "Things got out of hand. School administrators and principals thought they were following the framework when they latched onto whole language, and our greatest mistake was in failing to say, 'Look out for the crazy stuff, look out for the overreactions and the religiously anti-skills fanatics.' We totally misjudged which voices would take charge of the schools. We never dreamed it would be driven to this bizarre edge. When I tell people that we never even say the phrase 'whole language' anywhere in the document, they look at me like I'm mad."
Honig is also infamous for directing $340,000 in taxpayer dollars to his wife's nonprofit Quality Education Project, in exchange for its services at California schools. His felony charges were later reduced to misdemeanors.
Ramos is the most surprising choice. His only experience in education is as a member of the San Bernardino Community College Board of Trustees. The bulk of his connections are with American Indian and pro-gaming groups. By mid-October, Brown had collected $715,000 in campaign contributions from California tribes, according to the Press Democrat.
Schwarzenegger openly supported the takeover of McKinley Elementary by a charter school, along with his top education officials; Brown has not commented on that issue in particular, but his appointees will no doubt do the talking.
Marion Joseph, a five-year State Board member often criticized for being so outspoken about bilingual teaching methods and other radical reforms, tells the Weekly that this is an "experienced, capable and serious group of people."
"From what I know of them," she says, "their position on charters would be thoughtful, as they would be on all other things. ... They will judge charters the same way as all other educational issues."
Though new board member Rucker is essentially a spokeswoman for the California Teachers Association, she's always steered clear of absolute union protection for a clear and firm stance on the responsibility of teachers.
Then there's Williams, who works for EdSource.org, an informative -- and refreshingly neutral -- database of statistics and studies. Kirst worked with EdSource on one such study: the extensive "What Works in Middle Schools."
Cohn served as superintendant for the Long Beach Unified School District from 1992 to 2002. It became one of the best districts in the nation under his highly involved jurisdiction.
Ted Mitchell and fellow board member David Lopez would have had a chance to stay on the board if the State Senate chose to "confirm" their appointments by Schwarzenegger. However, Nathan Barankin, spokesman for Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, tells the Sacramento Bee that they'll stick with Brown's judgment:
"From our perspective we have a new governor and it's up to the governor to establish his own administration," Barankin said. "That includes selecting the leaders of key policy areas, and that certainly includes education."
Though Mitchell was a likable and generally popular education-board president, he received a lot of flack for his heavy involvement in the charter movement (he's on the board of directors for the Green Dot charter-school organization). Mitchell recently demanded an investigation into McKinley staff who were telling Parent Trigger signers that their kids would not be accepted into a new charter school. It's no secret: He was a Parent Trigger supporter in high places.
Will Kirst provide the same support for the charter takeover? We couldn't get him on the phone to ask him ourselves yesterday, but one look at his track record shows he's skeptical, to say the least. He published the 417-page Political Dynamics of American Education last year, and didn't go easy on charters.
Cohn has also focused on improving the existing district system instead of funneling all energy/funds into private operations.
From a 2005 San Diego Union-Tribune piece:
[Cohn] wants to dispel the notion that charter schools are the only venues for innovation. His philosophy mirrors the prevailing sentiment on the school board, which is far more skeptical of those publicly funded, autonomous campuses than was the Bersin administration.
"There is a just a lot of buzz around charters here - it's as if charters are the only option for change," Cohn said. "Other ways could be explored."
At Compton Unified School District, where 2 percent of students end up going to college, time is running out.
The freshly ousted Ben Austin wrote on the Parent Revolution blog yesterday:
"Just one month ago, California Federation of Teachers President Marty Hittleman - the same man who called the Parent Trigger the "lynch mob provision" - confidently predicted to the media that Governor Brown would immediately remove me from the State Board because I had used my position to advocate for radical kids-first change, ominously stating that I would not be serving on the State Board "in a month or so." It turns out he was right. Unfortunately, in the Governor's first full day in office, he chose to stand with the state's most powerful interest group that spent millions to elect him, rather than the parents and children of California."
He argued that his actions on the board have been indicative of a quality-over-special-interest stance, saying, "On individual votes, I supported good charter schools and voted against bad ones, even when sometimes under immense political pressure to do the opposite."
Gloria Romero, the state senator who authored the Parent Trigger law, is not happy either. In the article "Compton Parent Trigger Fued," she told the Weekly that Compton Unified has had plenty of time to improve -- the California Board of Education has consistently demanded the "chronically underperforming" district make some major changes.

"The district has kept this quiet for two years," Romero says.
However, California Teachers Association spokesman Frank Wells maintains that so far, Parent Revolution tactics have been fishy: "The Parent Trigger law was meant to be a vehicle for a local grassroots movement, as opposed to a vehicle for outside charter groups to sell their organization."
Charter issue aside, many ground-level veterans in the field have expressed admiration for Brown's selection. Ex-LAUSD school board member David Tokofsky put his glee gracefully to the LA Daily News:
"[The former] board had some well-intentioned and passionate advocates, but they tackled political issues, not curriculum and instruction," Tokofsky said. "This new group, which is in many ways an older group, knows what should be taught. ... They are not revolutionaries."

6-8 psi is the correct answer. Personally I just do as ptraykovski says and pump it until the pump is hard to operate without forcing it. Should sound drum tight when you flick it. I'va had guys grab my bladder and comment on how extremely hard I have it, but I have never had one explode on me.
Never transport a kite with the bladders inflated this hard. It doesn't take much heat to multiply the air pressure in there and all cars, trucka and vans get hot as hell inside.

CASSELBERRY — A possible breakthrough to resolve a deadlock between the city and Orlando over a payment agreement for Iron Bridge repairs has fallen through because Orlando did not want to give Casselberry a four-year period in which it could be sued for reimbursement of repair costs.
City attorney Kenneth McIntosh told council members this week that he is frustrated working with Orlando officials in trying to resolve the 3-month-old stalemate. He said the council should not consider the agreement again until ''we have assurance that Orlando intends to negotiate seriously.''
