With the holidays here, I have managed to get some nice blocks of time at my model bench. Like most aircraft, I am starting at the cockpit/interior for my Cessna 172 build. While that is being worked on, I did some research and found that the Ethiopian 172s did not have the roof windows as molded in the kit.
I filled the widows in with the kit glass then puttied them over to get a smooth finish.
While I was at it, I also filled in the large ejector pin divots in the interior of the fuselage. I don't know if these could be seen after the fuselage is glued together but decided to not take the chance.
Have fun modeling!

Twitter and Google+ may be gradually increasing their user numbers, but there's no doubt that Facebook is still the king of social networks.
As evidence of that fact, Facebook accounts for 52% of the 4bn pieces of content shared everyday through social.
So tapping into all that sharing is an important challenge for marketers and even a partial success could lead to untold riches, or at least a boost in traffic and conversions.
A talk by Beyond's Nils Mork-Ulnes and Judith Lewis at the recent Facebook Marketing Conference examined the science of sharing and the implications for Facebook marketers.
They identified seven different types of social sharers, ranging from altruists who share because they want to help to careerists who share because it helps them in business.
In the UK, altruists account for the largest proportion of sharers (39.6%), while careerists are in the minority (2.5%).
Lewis also highlighted data from Google which showed that shoppers are increasing the number of sources used to arrive at a buying decision, and that they use them almost twice as heavily as in the past.
The increase in sharing is coupled with data that shows that people put great value in recommendations from their friends and family when making a purchase decision.
Research from Reevoo shows that more than half of respondents (52%) said friends' recommendations were influential, followed by consumer reviews (48%) and advertising (24%).
So what are the implications for Facebook marketers and how can they get involved with all the social sharing that takes place?
The science of sharing
Mork-Ulnes highlighted three stats around sharing branded content on Facebook:
- 60% of people would be willing to share a product or service if given a deal/discount.
- 53% of people have used Facebook to interact with a brand.
- 36% of people liked or shared a brand page on Facebook in the last 30 days.
However the deal/discount statistic may be a bit of a red herring as Nokia's Thomas Messett said at the same conference that giving away cheap products or discounts has no long-term benefit to the brand as people simply click 'like' to get something for free, therefore the engagement doesn't actually mean anything.
That said, Mork-Ulnes provided data which indicates that fans exposed to brand content on Facebook buy more.
In tests, 2.12% of consumers that were exposed to 'organic' Starbucks branded content on Facebook made a purchase online or in-store compared to 1.54% who were no exposed to the content – a 38% difference.
A similar experiment using content from retailer Target found an 18% difference in favour of those who saw the content.
But not all products are necessarily impacted by social sharing – impulse buys that come at a lower cost and with minimum effort are apparently more suited to social recommendations.
The talk also touched on the benefits of frictionless sharing.
Though 67% of people have used an app that automatically shared their actions with their friends and family, 61% of users said these sorts of apps annoyed them.
Comments (3)
In one sense the chart about on Facebook influence against type of product makes sense - people looking to buy something that's relatively low cost and 'impulse' will ask around, have a look on Facebook and make a decision.
But I don't think it necessarily means people don't make more important (expensive) decisions based on social reviews and interaction - I just think in these instances, the social sharing aspect of the decision making process is part of a wider level of research for buyers - but that doesn't make social unimportant.
This made me chuckle though: "67% of people have used an app that automatically shared their actions with their friends and family, 61% of users said these sorts of apps annoyed them." - so very ,very true - many of these apps don't even let you use them unless you agree to allow it to automatically share actions via your feed, which feels intrusive and offputting from a user perspective.
"impulse buys that come at a lower cost and with minimum effort are apparently more suited to social recommendations."
I think this makes a lot of sense. A heavily financial commitment requires a little more research on the part of the consumer. Facebook might help influence their decision, maybe introduce them to a brand or help point them in a certain direction, but that interaction alone isn't going to be enough to prompt someone to buy.
Many of these studies and findings fail to highlight the various brands and models that exist within Facebook's Page ecosystem. Depending on the product, service or brand, goals and actions will be very different and often not taken into account. Some brands may be seeking brand awareness and community as short-term goals for their social strategy, which of course leads to long-term revenue goals. These engagement points may not be tracked via these studies, or recalled during consumer surveys.

In the year 1933, William Henry Ballard (1862-1954) of Lexington, Kentucky wrote a very brief history of his family (the "Narrative") that begins with the assertion that his earliest known ancestor is Bland Ballard of Kentucky, who fathered a son with his servant named Flora. The Narrative is undated, but a separate genealogical chart of the Ballard and allied Bartlett and Brady families identified as a "Family Tree" bearing the dates 1820-1933, describes Flora as "mixed." We assume the chart and the Narrative were written at the same time. A photocopy was provided to the author c. 1980 by Edward Hunter Ballard (1899-1988).
Dowan Ballard, Sr. son of Bland Ballard (white) and his servant Flora was born in the year 1820 at Ghent Ky. At an early age he was sold to the Macklin family at Stamping Ground in Scott Co., Ky., in 1848. Later he was sold by the Macklins to Dr. Ben Duvall in Franklin Co., Ky., near the forks of Elkhorn Creek and remained a slave in this family until the Emancipation was proclaimed in 1863.
He was married 3 times during his life. The first wife died shortly after their marriage and no children were born to them on the Macklin farm. The second wife bore him two sons John William and Flournoy and she died from burns received when the cabin on the Duvall farm where they were living burned down. My mother Matilda Bartlett became his third and last wife whom he married in 1854. My mother lived on the Butler farm which adjoined the Duvall farm. After they became free both father and mother lived together on the Butler farm until 1869 when our family moved to Louisville, Ky., and remained in that city until the year 1886 when we moved to Jackson, Tenn., where father and mother are now buried.
Flournoy Ballard died in youth. John William Ballard ran away with the Union soldiers as a boy 15 yrs. of age and after the civil war he settled at Cadiz Ohio and having the trade of a plasterer he was successful as a contractor and when he died in 1918 he had reared and educated a family of 5 children all of whom are living in Cleveland Ohio and Oil City, Penn., and the oldest son Flournoy is still living in Cadiz, Ohio.
Flournoy is named for his uncle who died in slavery though a young man at the time. His other son John Will is now a practicing attorney in Cleveland Ohio. The girls are all married and like their brothers are rearing splendid families.
Dowan Ballard, according to family tradition, son of Bland Ballard (most likely Bland Williams Ballard (1759-1853)) and his mulatto servant Flora, was born between 1820 and 1827, but most likely c. 18251 (at Ghent, Kentucky, according to the Narrative), and died 21 July 1909 at Jackson, Tennessee.
This claim of parentage is known only from the Narrative, but is supported by DNA evidence, which places descendants of Dowan Ballard in Lineage Group I of the Ballard DNA Project. As additional men join the DNA project and their test results help refine the family trees of those in Lineage Group I, we may be able to more definitively identify Dowan's father.
An examination of Federal census records for 1830 and 1840 yields interesting results. Presumably in 1830 Dowan and his mother Flora resided in the same household, when he would have been between the ages of 3 and 10. An examination of Kentucky Federal census records for 1830 reveals that in that year there were 24 slaveholding Ballard families, and of those, seven had a male slave younger than 10 years of age and a female slave of childbearing years. Compared with the 1840 census, where we would need to find a male slave between the ages of 13 and 17, and a female slave 10 years older than in 1830, the list narrows to four families, with three families appearing on both lists. Curiously, Bland Williams Ballard did not meet this criteria in 1830 but did so in 1840, which suggests the possibility that perhaps Bland was not the father and acquired Dowan (and Flora) at a later time, but is remembered as the father. Or the truth lies in the Narrative and Bland was the father, but Flora was owned by someone else — although this is contradicted by the Narrative, in which she is described as "his servant."
The three families that do meet these criteria are those of Bland Williams Ballard's brother James Ballard of Shelby County, Kentucky (1763-1849), his cousins Edward Ballard of Madison County, Kentucky (c. 1775-1854), and Nicholas Ballard of Madison County, Kentucky (c. 1795-c. 1850); the latter two were sons of John Ballard of Albemarle County, Virginia (c. 1765-1829), who was the son of Thomas Horace Ballard of Albemarle County, Virginia (c. 1732-1804), who was in turn the son of Thomas Ballard of Albemarle County, Virginia (c. 1717-1782). Thomas of Albemarle was the brother of Bland Ballard, Sr of Spotsylvania County, Virginia (c. 1713-1791), Bland Williams Ballard's grandfather. We assume Dowan remained with one of these families until about 1847, when he was sold to John Macklin of Franklin County, Kentucky.
Dowan Ballard was sold to John Macklin at Stamping Ground, Franklin County, Kentucky circa 1847. John and his brother Alexander Macklin were prominent, wealthy farmers; John cultivated wheat and became a successful miller in the New Orleans trade, while Alexander was a wealthy hog farmer. The brothers were the sons of Hugh Macklin, who settled in Kentucky in 1798.
Dowan was later sold to Dr Benjamin P. Duvall, who resided near the Forks of Elkhorn in Franklin county, three-quarters of a mile east of Frankfort.2 The date of this sale is unknown, though it is likely circa 1853 since we have evidence from a Macklin family bible preserved in Winchester, Kentucky, that a slave named Dowen was born March 22, 1852 at the Macklin farm, and we know that Dowan's son Flournoy died from typhoid in August 1852, according to the Franklin county records, which identify "Flourney" as a slave belonging to John Macklin.3
The names of Dowan's first two wives were not known to his son William, but the birth of two of Dowan's children was recorded in a Macklin family bible. He married first Matsy _____, who, according to William Henry Ballard, died shortly after their marriage at the Macklin farm; we deduce that Matsy was the mother of John William Ballard, given that census records show he was born in December 1847, and the Macklin family bible tells us that Flournoy, Matsy's son, was born in 5 April 1849.
William Henry stated that Dowan's second wife died in a fire at the Duvall farm, yet there is recorded in the Macklin family bible the birth of a possible son "Dowen," son of Harriett, who was born 22 March 1852. The fact that the birth of a possible son "Dowen" was recorded in a Macklin family bible suggests that this recollection is in error, and that Matsy was the mother of John William and Fournoy, and Harriett was the second wife and had one child, Dowen, who did not survive, which may be why William Henry had no knowledge of him. Either wife could have died in the fire William Henry mentioned, but it is likely, given the overall veracity of his account, that Matsy may have met her end between 1849 and 1851, and Harriett in the above mentioned fire in 1852 or 1853. It is perhaps after this fire that Dowan was sold to Dr. Benjamin Duvall, and in 1854 met Matilda Bartlett at the farm of Dr. James Butler.
Dowan married third c. 1854 Matilda Bartlett of Franklin county, Kentucky, who was born in 1835 and lived at the Butler farm, which was adjacent to the Duvall's; this was probably the residence of Dr James Butler, which has been identified on land ownership maps created c. 1880 in the collection of the Library of Congress. Following Emancipation Dowan Ballard and Matilda Bartlett lived at the Butler farm, then removed to Louisville, Kentucky in 1870. They relocated to Jackson, Tennessee in 1886, and remained there until their deaths.
The 1870 US Federal Census shows that on 17 June 1870 Dowan, Matilda and their sons William and Dowan Jr resided in the household of two doctors, C. T. Carpenter and William Clark in the 7th Ward of the city of Louisville, where their trade is identified as "house work."4 The 1880 US Federal Census places them in Louisville, but this time Dowan is identified as head of the household, but without an occupation ("none"); Matilda's is "house cleaner," and the boys are "at school." The household is comprised of D. Ballard, age 57; Matilda Ballard, age 45; Wm. Ballard, age 18; and Dowin Ballard, age 145 By 1885 they removed to Jackson, Tennessee, for on 21 January 1886 he purchased property from W. D. Robinson in Jackson, Tennessee, where they lived the remainder of his life.6
The 1900 US Federal Census reveals that Dowan and Matilda Ballard resided at 185 N. High Street in Jackson, Tennessee. Dowan's date of birth is listed as October 1827; Matilda's as October 1829; as previously noted, these dates are probably in error. Neither could read or write, but he owned his house free of a mortgage.7
Matilda Bartlett died 7 December 1907 and is buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Jackson, Tennessee, where her tombstone inscription reads Matilda Ballard, 1835-1907, Faithful Unto Death.8
In his will dated 28 December 1907 and recorded 10 August 1909, Dowan Ballard, Sr devised his property to his sons William H. Ballard and Dowan D. Ballard, naming his son Dowan D. Ballard as his administrator.9
To whom it may concern: This is my last will and testament, being of sound mind and in full possession of all my faculties, revoking all other wills.
(1) I want all of my just debts and funeral expenses paid after my death from estate.
(2) Whatever remains of my possessions both personal and real estate, I devise and bequeath to my sons William H. Ballard and Dowan D. Ballard in fee simple to be equally divided between them as seems best to them. Should neither of them be living at my death, their heirs shall inherit whatever part or parts of my estate is then remaining sharing equal parts.
(3) I appoint my son Dowan D. Ballard administrator without bond to wind up my affairs as herein expressed.
Witness my hand and seal this 28th day of Dec 1907.

Dowan (X) Ballard
The children of Dowan Ballard and his first wife Matsy _________ were:
JOHN WILLIAM, married Anna Maria Smith.
Flournoy, born 5 April 1849, died August 1852, of typhoid.10
The child of Dowan Ballard and his second wife Harriett _________ was:
Dowen, born 22 March 1852, and presumably died young; nothing more is known of him and his mother Harriett beyond a notation in a Macklin family bible.
The children of Dowan Ballard and Matilda Bartlett were:
Richard, possibly the Richard identified as a slave of J. R. Butler, born 1 February 1861; died young.11
WILLIAM HENRY, married Elizabeth (Bessie) Hudson Brady.
DOWAN DAVID, married Henriette E. Cottles.
1. William Henry Ballard's Narrative gives Dowan's date of birth as 1820; the 1870 US Federal Census gives his age as 45 (born c. 1825: David, age 45; Matilda, age 45; Dan, age 3; Wm, age 6) and the 1880 US Federal Census gives his age as 57, and therefore born c. 1823 (D. Ballard, age 57; Matilda, age 45; Wm, age 18; Dowin, age 14. 1880 US Federal Census, Louisville, Jefferson, Kentucky, Page 551.3000, Enumeration District (E.D.) 132). The 1900 US Federal Census gives October 1827 as his date of birth. The Slave Schedules that accompanied the 1850 and 1860 Census provide a clue; both the 1850 and 1860 Schedules list a male Mulatto slave, age 25 in 1850 and age 35 in 1860 belonging to Benjamin P. Duvall; most likely this was Dowan (the four remaining slaves on the 1850 Schedule and the six remaining slaves in 1860 are identified as "Black"; Dowan is consistently identified as Mulatto all his life in these records). A review of the census schedules suggest that the Census enumerator was not generous in the use of this designation; on the page listing Dr Duvall's slaves, in 1850 21 percent are identified as Mulatto, and in 1860, 13 percent.
2. The 1850 US Federal Census Slave Schedule listing the slaves belonging to John Macklin of Franklin county identify them all as "B" (Black); none are identified as Mulatto.
3. Franklin Co., Ky. Vital Records, Deaths, August 1852, identify a Flourney, age 4, black male laborer, resident of Franklin Co., slave of John Macklin. Cause of death: Typhoid flux.
4. The 1870 US Federal Census record erroneously identifies Dowan Sr as "David", age 45, and Dowan Jr as "Dan", age 3; Matilda is age 35, and Wm is age 6. 1870 US Federal Census, City of Louisville (Ward 7), Jefferson Co., Ky., Roll M653-377, p. 915, PN 177, 1285-1285. Dr William Clark was a cousin of General George Rogers Clark and after the war the owner of Mulberry Hill, the ancestral home of the General's family. In 1921 the remaining land was purchased by R.C. Ballard Thruston, his brother S. Thruston Ballard, and the family of their deceased brother, Charles T. Ballard, and given to the City of Louisville as a memorial in commemoration of George Rogers Clark. R.C. Ballard Thruston was a cousin of Bland Williams Ballard, being a descendant of Bland's brother James.

5. 1880 US Federal Census, Louisville, Jefferson, Kentucky, Page 551.3000, E.D. 132.
6. 21 January 1886. W. D. Robinson of the county of Madison and State of Tennessee, for and in consideration of the sum of One Hundred and Fifty Dollars … hereby transfer and convey unto Dowan Ballard of said county and State, the following described lot of ground, lying in the city of Jackson, Tennessee: Beginning at a stake at the S.W. corner of Reed St and N.W. corner of Flippin's Lot, running East to Robinson's Lot 182 ft; thence North to an Alley 106 ft; thence West to Read St 182 ft; thence South to the beginning 106, this lot is one of a number of Lots bought by me at a Chancery Court sale of Mary Read vs. Harvey Usher et al – Minute Book No. 4, Chancery Court page 497… Recorded 21 January 1886, Madison Co. Tenn. W.D. Book 43, p. 73.
7. 1900 US Federal Census, Jackson, 15th Dist., Madison Co., Tenn., taken 6 June 1900, Sheet No. 9.
8. Jonathan K. T. Smith, Tombstone Inscriptions from Black Cemeteries in Madison County, Tennessee (1995). Note that the date of birth recorded on the tombstone differs from that reported in the 1900 census, but matches the age recorded in the 1870 and 1880 US Federal Census. Dowan may be buried beside her; reportedly many tombstones in this cemetery have been lost. Mount Olivet Cemetery is located on East Forest Avenue between Highland Avenue and North Royal Street in Jackson, Tennessee.
9. Madison Co. Tenn. Will Book B (1894-1914) p. 353. The witnesses were J. H. Trimble and L. G. Murray. Also recorded Madison Co. Tenn. Minute Book 26, p. 475.
10. A Macklin family bible in the possession of a descendant in Winchester, Kentucky recites "Flurnoy Matsy's child born April 5th, 1849." The bible also records "Harriet's child Down born March 22, 1852," which suggests that Dowan may have had a child with another slave at the Macklin farm; family tradition fails to name a slave Harriet, but another union with an unnamed woman suggests it is Harriet who died in a fire. As previously noted, Dowan's son Flournoy died from Typhoid in August 1852, according to the Franklin county records, which identify "Flourney" as a slave belonging to John Macklin.
11. Franklin Co., Ky. Vital Records, Births, 1861, records the birth on 1 February 1861 in Franklin County, of Richard, male, born on Benson [Creek], slave of J. R. Butler.

Al Gore Announces New Book, "Picking up where An Inconvenient Truth left off"
Photo: Al Gore, Norwegian US Embassy.
Will There Be A Movie This Time?
Al Gore has just announced a new book titled Our Choice that will be a kind of sequel to An Inconvenient Truth. "An Inconvenient Truth reached millions of people with the message that the climate crisis is threatening the future of human civilization and that it must and can be solved. Now that the need for urgent action is even clearer with the alarming new findings of the last three years, it is time for a comprehensive global plan that actually solves the climate crisis. Our Choice will answer that call."A Green Book, Literally
100% of the profits will be donated to the Alliance for Climate Protection, the book will be printed on 100% recycled paper, have locally produced and sourced editions, use low VOC inks, and will be carbon neutral (good green moves, but also probably trying to shield himself from criticism since he's a high-profile target).
At the time of An Inconvenient Truth's release, we thought that what was missing was solutions. It's a good thing that he's rectifying that problem, though it's hard to know if this new book will reach as many people as the movie (probably not), but maybe they'll also make a movie out of it (are you listening to this Davis Guggenheim?).
You can read the whole thing on Al's Journal.

Platform logic
By Denis Pombriant on May 7, 2018
For some time now, it's been my impression of the CRM market that all, or at least most, of the good ideas have been taken. It's been a long time since we saw a new systemic solution that approaches front office business. It's even been a long time since we saw a major innovation at […]

Let the platform wars begin
By Denis Pombriant on January 18, 2018
The software platform is likely to be the new battleground in enterprise software. This is not to say that analytics and security are not important but they are being handled in different ways. Security is being handled in ways that address both hardware and software vulnerabilities but these things aren't what customers or consumers spend […]

A couple of weeks ago Allison Arieff wrote a piece in the New York Times titled "Solving All the Wrong Problems" that gets to the heart of the technical times we live in and its focus is not what you might think. She includes a long list of things we can buy or subscribe to […]

Integrating the Commerce Experience: Salesforce to Acquire Demandware
By Michael Fauscette on June 7, 2016
There's a lot of good analysis coming out on Salesforce's announcement last week on the intent to acquire Demandware and move into the commerce platform business. If you're looking for some good reads, try this post by Paul Greenberg or this post from Ray Wang. I don't intend to rehash what my colleagues have […]

Commoditizing software
By Denis Pombriant on March 25, 2016
For over 50 years, the IT industry has followed a well-known script associated with emerging and evolving paradigms. First a product or category is introduced, then it gains wide market acceptance (or dies on the vine) followed by a long period when vendors and customers seek out ever more efficient ways to produce the thing. […]

Comparing Software using Peer Reviews
By Michael Fauscette on March 16, 2016
The goal for a business software peer review site is to provide assistance to a buyer in researching and selecting an appropriate software solution (or at least it should be). There are many other uses for the review data once collected, and those uses may be a part of the way the site is funded, […]

Another day, another cloud
By Denis Pombriant on March 8, 2016
Salesforce seems to be on a roll this quarter making new clouds available left and right. We've seen two already in Healthcare and Education and today they announced general availability of the Financial Services Cloud. As I have written before, back in the day Siebel had over 20 industry versions of its flagship CRM product […]

Birth of the modern
By Denis Pombriant on February 15, 2016
Nearly every generation sees the birth of what for it will define modern life as going forward. As uncertain as the twenty-teens have been so far, some day in retrospect economists may pinpoint this decade as important as the tipping points of 1870's and the 1920's. If that turns out to be the case there […]

Ill Nurse
I am currently a nurse at a home health agency. I love my job, coworkers and the agency but I have currently been on short term disability for the past month due to a back injury. I really dont want to think about having to leave my job but right now it looks like there is nothing that can be done for my back pain. I was just wondering if anyone out there knows of any jobs that I can possibly look for if this pain is not resolved. I really enjoy patient contact and I do not have much nursing experience. I have been a nurse for three years, two and a half years I worked as a surgical/ortho/neuro nurse and I just recently started working in home health 5 months ago. Before working as a nurse I worked as a CNA for about 11 years, in long term facilities, MD offices and on the surgical/ortho/neuro floor. I did want to go back to school for a bridge BSN-MSN program.

from USJan 13, '13Sorry to hear about your injury.
Many of us have injured our backs over the years in providing care to patients. My best advice is to fully recover, give yourself time, go to your PT. Having chronic back pain will surely impact the course of your career.
Good luck!Jan 14, '13Did you suffer an on-the-job injury? If so, please make sure that you understand and take advantage of all benefits/rights you're entitled to - especially if you have not signed a release. If you are unable to continue providing direct patient care, you may be able to get some support &/or funding for training to enable you to make a career switch to a related area that does not require any lifting such as informatics or case management.

Students can use their fingers or a pen to write, draw and interact with content on the surface of the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, or two students working together can each use natural multitouch gestures. This means they can spend more time collaborating and less time waiting for their turn to work on the interactive surface. And there are no manuals required to to learn from; students can simply walk up to the Smart interactive whiteboard and begin working together.Watch the multitouch video
Freestyle interaction - Expanding the boundaries of learning
With freestyle interaction, four students can work together anywhere on the surface without being restricted to defined spaces or specific tools. Each one can perform different actions at the same time for example, two students can move objects around while another writes in digital ink.Watch the freestyle interaction video

The Seattle Seahawks are the latest team to show that conventional builds for players at a particular position are not absolute.
Cornerback Richard Sherman towers at 6-foot-3, and safety Kam Chancellor resembles a linebacker at 6-3 and 232 pounds. Quarterback Russell Wilson profiles on the other end of the spectrum, shy of 6 feet, which is considered a substandard stature for quarterbacks.
At wide receiver, there are three primary positions: the Z, X and slot. The Z, or flanker, plays a yard off the line of scrimmage and normally has sufficient size and good quickness to make use of the natural cushion between him and a defensive back. The X, or split end, often wins with size and speed on the perimeter. The slot player is uniquely quick and, in many cases, is tiny relative to his split end brethren.
But not always. Marques Colston -- all 6-4 of him -- has been one of the more consistent slot presences throughout his career. Golden Tate -- formerly a Seahawk -- showed he could win on the perimeter despite falling short of 6 feet.
A player who can buck the mold of the prototype can be lethal and compromising to an opponent.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Vincent Jackson fits that mold. At 6-5, he's nightmarish to cover anywhere on the field. He also can align just about anywhere along the formation, making him a headache for which to account.
"I mean he was [extremely troublesome] to prepare for," said one AFC defensive coach who recently faced Jackson. "That guy is really freaking good. He's got strong hands and catches the ball away from his body. He plays in the slot and outside. He's a solid blocker and real tough. Also, he's a real smart player that could handle a lot of stuff like playing both the X and Z [positions]."
Tampa Bay has a glaring hole opposite Jackson in its receiving corps, fueling speculation within league circles that Texas A&M's Mike Evans could be a target for them at pick No. 7 in this week's draft.

Some of these should be really, really easy to identify while other might be really obscure. There are one or two images that are actually a little bit tricky. Can you get all of them?

It is estimated that 50% of traffic comes from mobile devices and thus most people cannot trivialize the importance of mobile device visitors. Most people have built their sites to accommodate the high mobile traffic that is directed to their sites.
A blogger may decide to have an app for the blog site that keeps the mobile visitors up to date with all the content. You may be wondering how to turn WordPress into such an app with the simpler way.
Here, AppPresser comes to make things easy instead of building a mobile app from scratch. With this tool, your site is bound to go high in popularity and get your traffic that converts. Now, we'd like to make a comprehensive tutorial about how to turn WordPress site into app using AppPresser.
Benefits of Turning WordPress into Mobile App
Having a mobile app for your site is important. You can leverage notifications on your site to enable mobile browsers get notifications as soon as you post. They will be able to read your content, share it on social media and even leave their comments. The app is easy and gives the mobile users more functionality and more access to your site.
What is AppPresser?
AppPresser is a tool that allows you to convert your existing WordPress site into a mobile app for iOS and android. You can then distribute the app through Google Play and iTunes. You can add other related features such as WooCommerce for an e-commerce site, BuddyPress for a social network blog or any other features developed by Phonegap's API.
Once you install the AppPresser plugin and the theme accompanying it, it maintains the look of your site on the mobile app. Your normal WordPress theme will not be changed, and this will be seen inside the mobile app.
AppPresser requires you to have fast hosting solution if you need to have a high-quality functionality app. You may consider BlueHost. The App does not operate offline and thus your visitors need to have an internet connection to access your site through it.
There are additional extensions that you may need to improve the functionality of the mobile app. The extensions are included in the agency bundle and include AppPush which enhances push notifications, AppBuddy which integrates BuddyPress, AppCamera for photo sharing, AppGeolocation for Geolocation integration, AppSwiper for homepage slider widget and lastly the AppWoo for WooCommerce.
Build Your App
You should purchase the AppPresser bundle. There are the standard and the agency bundle. You should read the AppPresser Developer Handbook before you buy a bundle to bring yourself to terms with what you are about to buy.
Install AppPresser Plugin
Go to the WordPress Dashboard and install the plugin to get started. This is done from the plugin directory as seen on the image below.
The plugin allows you to integrate your site to app extensions and features as provided by AppPresser via Phonegap.
Install AppSwiper and AppPresser
It is advisable that you use the AppPresser theme which does not interfere with the theme of your site or the mobile site. The theme is designed to work with touch devices while other WordPress themes are not.
To install this, login to your AppPresser account and select My Account >> View Details >> Downloads. Here, you can get the theme download and get the license keys. Other plugins can also be viewed on this page.
Copy paste your license keys on an editor and download the AppTheme and the AppSwiper. You can also download other plugins you need. Upload the downloaded theme through your WordPress Dashboard. Leave it without activation.
Upload the Swiper plugin downloaded together with the AppTheme from the WordPress plugin menu and activate it.
Go to WordPress Dashboard and select AppPresser Menu. Select "Load AppPresser for Admins Only" and turn it on. You then can preview the app as admin. This does not interfere with the normal operation of your site. You can browse your site just as a normal visitor to see its function. Promptly enter the license keys and click Save Settings.
Build the App Homepage
To turn WordPress into app, you have to create a homepage for your site. The homepage should be distinct. The homepage is for those using a mobile app and does not affect HTML mobile site of the desktop version of your site.
Go to WordPress Dashboard and set a new homepage for the app. Add [swiper] shortcode.
With AppSwiper plugin, you can create sliders that are custom post types. You can create sliders to link to the content that goes to the mobile app. A featured image should be selected to act as a background for each slide.
Then, you need to give the created homepage a name by visiting AppPresser Settings pages on your WordPress Dashboard and select home.
Refresh your site, and you can see the new homepage and the slider you earlier created. Customize the app as you need to meet your feel and taste. After you turn WordPress into app, you can upload it to iTunes or Google Play.

The MSR Reactor 1.7L Stove System is one of the fastest and most fuel efficient stoves currently on the market (able to boil .5 liters of water in 1.5 minutes). It is a solid choice for the ultralight thru-hiker all the way to the casual camper. The 1.7 liter pot is ample volume for 2+ people. On blustery winter hikes you can melt enough snow for your whole crew. Then use it to prepare your signature meal (mine is Ramen noodles with the accidental addition of dirt and maybe some twigs). The heat exchanger completely encloses the radiant burner head and virtually takes the wind out of the equation. This means faster boil times and efficient fuel usage. The stove and fuel both pack into the pot for ultimate convenience.
So sorry, but only 4 items are allowed for comparison, so we're comparing the first 4. I blame the gnomes and so should you.
Would you like to compare the products you have selected now?

Released on 10 May 2012.
2012 Short-listed
CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger
Beth and me wedged tight, jeaned legs pressed against each other. The sound of our own breathing. Before we all stopped believing a tornado, or anything, could touch us, ever.
Addy Hanlon and Beth Cassidy are tough, inseparable, invincible. No pair more charismatic or sophisticated. No pair more dangerous.
But with the fall term, their new coach arrives and things begin to change. She has plans for the cheer squad: all sleek poise and cool command, the girls are soon entirely in her thrall. Faster, harder, higher, thinner, the stakes raised, their world contracting, they compete to risk – everything.
She, meantime, has been crossing a line of her own.
From the brilliant author of The End of Everything, Dare Me is a searing novel about the allure of adulthood and the dark heart of adolescence: the fierce bonds between girls, their bitter rivalries, and their power to transform one another.

Engin Rag is part of NUSSU Rag & Flag, an annual charity project which brings students from all faculties together.

Congratulations to Engin Rag 2017 for attaining the Gold Award! It has been five years since we last received Gold.
With about 200 participants in total, the different departments (Dance, Float and Costumes) worked tirelessly together to put up an amazing performance. Although the Gold Award was a call for celebration, it was more important that the freshmen had an enriching experience and forged long-lasting friendships with their fellow batchmates and seniors!

The famous Coyuca Lagoon is in your backyard and provides a great place for all kinds of water sports. This fresh water lagoon is a haven for water skiers and wakeboarders. Ski boats can be arranged on a hourly, daily or weekly basis.
The ocean is just a step away and has a long stretch of sandy beach for walks, horseback riding and surf fishing.
The Villa is fully air conditioned and each room has a private bath and sitting area with view of ocean and pool.
We are retired and live here part of year and travel in US visting friends and relatives
Stephen Vincent purchased this villa in 2005
We are on the ocean with the lagoon nearby.
Can provide Wakeboarding, Wake Surfing, Water Skiing for and additional charge. Equipment and Instruction can be provided.
Large and private space with a lovely pool and amazing coconut palm trees.
The ocean is meters away and is a spectacle to watch. You have all the water
sports available minutes away and also the port of Acapulco in 20 min. ride.
All in all it was very pleasant and relaxing. Stephen and Barbara were easy to deal
with. Definitely would come again !
We spent Christmas eve, what a a peasant experience! Stephen's Villa had all we needed: nice and clean pool, hot tub, peaceful front beach, nice garden for the children, very friendly staff, etc... The house offers you the hole package. I will rent again. I also recommend visiting the lagoon, that is pretty close.
Thanks Stephen!

Alberca grande para nadar, jardin grande para jugar, comoda y funcional.
Steve y Barbara sus duenos son unos magnificos anfitriones.
Regresaremos en la primera oportunidad!!!!
I just returned from my vacations in this incredible place. I recommend it a lot. I went with 10 friends and we all enjoyed our time there. We hope the jacuzzi is completed soon, cause we are planning to go again soon. The only thing we recommend to the owner is a bigger tv and a bathroom in the front cabin. The people that cooked and cleaned were very kind.
We had an awesome time in Villa Barbara, big house, great pool, great service, I would recommend this Villa to anyone who wants to get away from everything and experience a relaxing time in the company of friends or family, dogs were really happy as well!
Thanks Steve for making everything so easy!

We recently stayed at the villa during the Christmas holidays and had a wonderful time! The villa is located in front of the ocean with a spectacular sunset view every afternoon. We also enjoyed the private pool with its water slide! Every room is air conditioned and very comfortable to sleep at night. The villa is in a quiet neighborhood and away from the busy tourist areas. The grounds are very well kept, the lawn is perfect, and the house is bright and colorful. We definitely recommend the villa and would stay there again!!!

Show Me the Monet
One of the jobs of the Art Institute's crack legal department is to help protect the museum's trademarks. A trademark, as you may already know, is any word, name, symbol, or other device that indicates the source of goods or services. Trademark law protects a trademark owner against the use of a trademark (or any confusingly similar mark) in a way that is likely to cause confusion. A trademark owner, however, must act vigilantly to protect its trademarks.
One way to help protect a trademark is to apply for a federal trademark registration, which, if successful, entitles the owner to exclusive national use of the mark and the ability to use the cool ® symbol. The Art Institute of Chicago has federal registrations for several of its trademarks, including our name, our red square logo, and each of the iconic lion statues that guard the Michigan Avenue entrance. The image above shows one of our certificates of registration.
From time to time, as a part of the Art Institute's efforts to protect its trademarks, I send "friendly" (to a lawyer, at least) letters to companies that use our trademarks without permission. We aren't interested in stopping people from snapping personal photos of the lions, but we cannot allow commercial vendors to wrongly imply that the Art Institute offers, sponsors or endorses goods or services that we have never even seen before.
One recent unauthorized commercial product that crossed the line was a t-shirt featuring one of the lions (our registered trademark) over the text "The Art Institute of Chicago" (our registered trademark), along with the phrase "Show Me the Monet" (unlikely to ever be an Art Institute trademark). Concerned that the public might believe that the shirt was sold or approved by the Art Institute, I sent a letter to the vendor which went something like this: "Dear vendor … our valuable registered trademarks … unauthorized commercial product … likelihood of confusion … knock it off."
The story has a happy ending, involving no blood or tears. The vendor acknowledged its mistake and offered to do whatever was necessary to secure approval of the shirt. The business people in our Museum Shop worked out an arrangement with the vendor involving some changes to the shirt and a formal license agreement. And thus were the Art Institute's trademarks and the t-shirt-buying public kept safe from the likelihood of confusion.

|Refugee aboard a train at Budapest's Keleti station in Hungary. (Kristóf Hölvényi for Jesuit Refugee Service)
|Refugee parents are seeing their children going hungry, deprived of an education, lacking adequate medical care, inadequately clothed and facing another harsh winter in buildings with no windows and no heat. Worse, they can see no end in sight.
(Washington, D.C.) November 17, 2015 — As soon as we learned of last Friday's horrific terrorist attack on Paris, the people of the United States reacted with an immediate outpouring of deep sympathy and solidarity for the people of France. But in the days following the tragedy, a dark side to this reaction has emerged in the form of statements by a number of U.S. governors and commentators who want to blame the victims by barring Syrian refugees desperately seeking our protection from resettlement.
One of the proudest traditions of the United States has been to welcome the stranger. Through the U.S. resettlement program, we have provided a safe harbor to those fleeing violence and oppression, and an opportunity to make a new life in a country that does not just tolerate, but embraces, diversity.
In the past four decades, America has welcomed more than three million refugees from many countries, including Vietnam, Somalia, Bhutan, Iraq, Iran, Eritrea, Colombia, Burma, and, yes, Syria, to name just a few. All have been selected for vulnerability, and carefully vetted to ensure that these are freedom-seeking people, the kind that you and I would welcome as our neighbors.
Year after year, these refugees have integrated among us, adding the unique qualities of their traditions and cultures to enrich the tapestry of our communities.
To call for a halt to the resettlement of Syrian refugees in the wake of the Paris attack makes little sense. These are people who are fleeing violence visited upon their homes during the Syrian conflict, often by ISIS or by other extremist factions. Out of the millions who have fled, only a few thousands have thus far been selected as resettlement candidates, and these are those who have suffered most greatly – widows with children, trauma and torture survivors, members of persecuted minorities.
They are, furthermore subject to the most rigorous security screening that our government has ever imposed. From initial identification to final approval, these candidates often must wait from eighteen months to two years in wretched conditions before admission to the United States because of our security standards, by far the most stringent in the world.
It is worth remembering that more than 70 million businesspeople, students, tourists, and immigrants enter the United States each year. The few thousand refugees invited to become part of our community are the most carefully selected and highly vetted of all.
In the current debate over refugee admissions, it is also important to remember that those lucky few offered resettlement are but a tiny fraction of the four million refugees in neighboring countries and ten million people who have been displaced within Syria. The vast majority of those people would far rather return to their homes than to attempt the dangerous path to Europe or endure the long wait for resettlement.
Their desperate need to move onward stems from the severe and deepening suffering and growing despair they are experiencing in their present circumstances, which have made life intolerable. Refugee parents are seeing their children going hungry, deprived of an education, lacking adequate medical care, inadequately clothed and facing another harsh winter in buildings with no windows and no heat. Worse, they can see no end in sight.
As we feel compassion for the terrible loss of the people of Paris, so we must also not forget these other victims of violence struggling to endure in Lebanon, Jordan, and Turkey, and within Syria.
While we should feel pride that the United States has been the most generous donor to the crisis, we, and the international community, must do far more. Adequate resources must be found to relieve their suffering and to address the worsening humanitarian crisis that has led to the march of hundreds of thousands into Europe. Both our American values and our long-term hopes for peace should compel us to insist on a better response.
by Mitzi Schroeder
Jesuit Refugee Service/USA Director for Policy
Jesuit Refugee Service International Director Fr. Thomas H. Smolich, S.J., speaks about the importance of recognizing that attacks such as those carried out in Paris should not mean we close our doors to the most vulnerable:

* Roads to Gettysburg
GM: Ed Beach
The Great Campaigns tournament moved upstairs, into the light
of day, and proceeded comfortably in our smaller but dedicated
facility. Attendance remained strong in both events, with the
1863/1864 tournament drawing a solid 21 entrants, the highest
attendance in four years.
the third year, part 2 of the Great Campaigns of the ACW series
featured scenarios from the 1863 and 1864 games: Stonewall's
Last Battle, Roads to Gettysburg, and Grant Takes Command.
Five of the seven scenarios used in the tournament came from
recently released GTC, giving the players fresh strategic options
to ponder.
Sheridan Rides South was first. Conventional thinking was
to bid to play Union (about half the games had Union bids), but
the Confederates defied that strategy, winning in eight of nine
matchups. Everyone will have to rethink this one before next
year! Round 2 featured The Battle Continues (a hypothetical Day
4 at Gettysburg) from The Skimisher, which worked well. We'll
continue to use that scenario in years to come. After the traditional
Salem Church matchup in Round 3, Trevillian Station from GTC
followed. This round featured a few close matchups and a few
lopsided cavalry dashes. Look for this one to be replaced with
the soon-to-be-released Piedmont scenario next year. The day
concluded with the new classic, Battle of the Wilderness. Its
popularity was evident as we had eight complete boards of it
going at once even though it didn't start until after 8pm. Even
those players without a chance to make it in to the single elimination
rounds didn't want to miss the chance to slug it out with this
one. As the dust cleared at the end of the first day, Bruno Passacantando,
Chris Withers, and Mark Booth were the top qualifiers, each sporting
perfect 4-0 records for the day.
The quarterfinals brought the players back to 1864 to fight
the Strike Them a Blow. Steve Sandy, this year's "Risen
from the Ranks" award winner, dealt Mark Booth his first
loss of the tournament, knocking him out with a well-executed
Confederate fighting withdrawal. Paul Nied won the only Union
victory with a quick knockout of Steve Likevich through combat
losses. Brad Anderson, this year's "Rookie of the Year",
bowed out against Bruno, the defending tournament champ, while
Gordon Bliss fell to Chris Withers, winner of the GC2 tournament
earlier in the week.
The semifinals moved a bit further south to Cold Harbor with
the Bethesda Church scenario. Bruno bid to play Union but relived
Grant's Cold Harbor frustration, falling to Paul after suffering
enormous combat losses. Chris also prevailed over Steve as the
The finals once again used Battle of the Wilderness, Paul
bidding for the Union. In the opening move, AP Hill rolled a
6 movement allowance and killed the 5NY in the cavalry retreat.
Hill was able to capture both Parkers Store and the Widow Tapp
farm. However, with the next initiative Hancock secured the Block
Road/Plank Road intersection for the Union and sent two divisions
further south to stop any flanking attempts in the Wilderness.
Chris then made a questionable call, retreating Heth out of Widow
Tapp back to Parkers Store while entrenching Wilcox (rather than
activating Ewell's corps). Paul won a number of initiatives in
a row and before Chris could respond, Locust Grove had fallen.
The Rebels were now well behind in losses and objective VPs so
they switched strategy to try to take the more lightly defended
Crossroads. Hill advanced again on the objective, but was repulsed
and routed in the Union counterattack. Chris tried some more
tricks with their miscellaneous brigades and with Longstreet,
but the Union stymied them each time. The win represented Paul's
first plaque in seven years of faithful attendance at the Great
Campaigns tournaments. Congratulations, Paul Nied!
the single elimination rounds proceeded, five other Great Campaigns
enthusiasts tried the Rebels in the White House campaign game
to be published in the upcoming Skirmisher 2. Even with multiple
commanders, we easily finished this campaign game (representing
Early's 1864 raid on Washington) in a single day. After a slow
Confederate start, Dennis Mason (Early) moved the Confederate
II Corps towards Baltimore. Rushing troops in to Baltimore from
Petersburg, the Union players stymied this advance. Unfortunately
they then relaxed when it looked like Early was retreating back
to Virginia. Gerry Germond (Breckinridge) dashed from Howard
County to the capital fortifications in a single turn and broke
through into the District. By the next day, both the US Capitol
and White House were in flames. Great Campaigns veterans Ken
Lee and Ed Beach were court-martialed on the spot. Rookie of
the Year runner-up Mark Greenwood will be forgiven as long as
he returns and plays with us again next year. This one was so
much fun we've already scheduled a rematch for next year.

New Zealand Prime Minister John Key and Labour leader David Shearer have congratulated US President Barack Obama on winning a second term in office.
Mr Key said he looks forward to further developing New Zealand's relationship with the United States.
"With President Obama's re-election there will be many opportunities to enhance the relationship, which is built on shared values and a commitment to improve the prosperity and well-being of our people," he said on Wednesday night.
"I have enjoyed working with President Obama during his first term as president and welcome the opportunity to continue our strategic partnership over the coming years," he said.
Mr Key said he will send President Obama a letter of congratulations on Thursday and will relay them in person when they meet at the East Asian Summit in Phnomh Penh later this month.
Mr Shearer also congratulated Mr Obama, saying the election had been a gripping, closely fought race.
"New Zealand has close ties with the United States and a warm relationship with its people that will continue to flourish under the leadership of President Obama," he said.
Waterfront celebrations
US Ambassador David Huebner threw an election night party on the waterfront in Wellington and told several hundred guests it was a celebration of his country's vibrant democracy.
Fairfax reports the Chicago Bar was packed.
"It's a great day for American democracy and for democracy generally - this is how it is supposed to work," Mr Huebner said.
"I actually find here in New Zealand there's more interest on average than back home," he said.
"And if you talk to some of the Kiwis in the room tonight, they know more about the American electoral process and American electoral history than most Americans do."

One of the most puzzling reactions to President Barack Obama's re-election last week is the growing movement by residents of more than half the states to secede from the Union. Tens of thousands are signing petitions that in effect seek the ability to form their "own new government." What nonsense.
The petitions posted on the White House website "We the People" have been signed by hundreds of thousands of people. Tennessee and Georgia are among the states are represented, but they are hardly alone. Residents of at least 30 states have signed petitions, though it appears to some who have scanned the signatures that some individuals have signed petitions for multiple states.
It is pretty clear that those who want to secede from the union are unhappy with Obama's re-election. Those who have signed the petitions and who have commented publicly about them are pretty coy. Most, in fact, don't mention the president by name but say things like "We're fed up with the way things are ..." or "It would be a crime against the people of any state to hold them, against their will, in a Union that they desire to leave."
It's not hard to divine what drives many, but not all of those who signed the petition. Some observers of the contemporary political scene mince no words, in fact, in what they perceive as the reason for the nascent secession movement.
"It's nothing but race," says Tyrone Brooks, president of the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials. "Some people are upset at the fact that we have an African-American president." That's not so, says one Georgia signer of the secession petition.
"The racial issue has been checked at the doorstep for a long time," said Danny Dukes, of Canton, Ga. The petition is "like the Boston Tea Party sending a message saying, 'We're fed up with the way things are.' We want progress and direction and leadership and don't agree with the route things are taking."
Many Americans likely share at least some of those feelings, given the number of votes garnered by losing Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Most, thank goodness, don't think secession is the way to resolve hard feelings about the election. Indeed, many familiar with the petitions have made their skepticism or disgust with the secession effort well known. Good for them.
Truth is, the petitions mean little. Most are posted on the White House website established by the president last year as an easy way for citizens to approach the administration on any subject of their choosing. No one, it would seem certain, expected secession to become the topic of choice.
As a practical matter, the current petition movement means little. It has no force of law. "It [the petitions] is largely symbolic," says Christopher Banks, a political science professor at an Ohio University. "It's a venue for venting. Even tea party officials agree. "It's [the petition drive] kind of a waste of time said one Ohio party official.
If would-be secessionists hope to kindle a political movement, they're in trouble. David Smith, a spokesman for Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, said "the governor is aware of the petition. Tennessee isn't seceding."
Haslam is not alone in his viewpoint. Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal won't even comment on the topic and Ohio Gov. John Kasich said via a spokesman that "The concept of seceding hasn't entered into our policy discussions." Texas Gov. Rick Perry said that "nothing should be done to change" the Union.
Cooler heads understand that secession is a non-starter. The Civil war is a useful reminder, of course, in that regard. More modern proponents of succession should consider not only history but contemporary truths. If secession was possible -- and it isn't -- the states that left the union would find the going difficult.
Just for starters, the states would have to provide some sort of monetary system and provisions for defense for its citizens. They'd have to find alternative ways to travel since the Intestates and many other major roads in most states are federal thoroughfares. Then there's Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. The list goes on.
All the talk of secession is in a way of reaffirmation of American principles. Americans have the right to say and promote whatever they want in almost every circumstance. With that right comes the additional right to publicly embarrass themselves by their speech, by their writing and by their actions.
Those who blindly advocate secession as a way of resolving their unhappiness with the election or as a solution to the nation's problems are clearly availing themselves of the latter.
