Back in September 2013, Buffer hits the 1,000,000 users and the number is growing exponentially. For many, Buffer is just another tool to automate social media marketing.
What if I tell you that you can now make automation on Buffer much easier? I am talking about once a week (or once a month) scheduling and you are all set! Tempted? Carry on reading.
And no, this is not an easy way out for your social media marketing. These techniques that I'll sharing with you are going to help you to simplify your social media marketing but not eliminating the fact that you need to monitor them as well.
Buffer allows you to take your social media marketing to the next level using automation but you would have to take a little initiatives especially when you want these posts to go viral and reaching the targeted market.
Let's face the truth. Buffer works extremely well especially when you are scheduling daily posts during your morning coffee or right before bed. Yes, I did that before!
However, things will be very different when you are managing multiple social media accounts and you have tons to share. The only problem? You lack of time … and time is something you can't buy.
This post is all about how to use Buffer to schedule post not only for usual, daily scheduling but as well as mass scheduling. Enjoy the read and remember to leave a comment!
Head over to Buffer's official website and grab yourself a free account. There is also the paid account which is called Awesome plan which allows you to connect up to 12 social accounts, adding team members and schedule up to 200 posts.
A free account on Buffer allows you to connect up to 5 social media accounts and schedule up a limited number of posts.
If you need bigger plans, you can easily take up Business and Agency plans that starts at $50 per month.
This part is really easy. As seen above, you can connect to various social media accounts using Buffer. Click on the buttons to connect your accounts with Buffer.
After connecting your account to Buffer, the next step is to click on the Schedule tab and add the times you want the posts to be sent out.
For advanced users, you can even create multiple scheduling accounts such as weekdays and weekends scheduling.
I got to be honest here. I'm using Buffer for Business plan and therefore, you may not see the group feature in your standard account.
You can add your post, select the social account to be uploaded, adding images if needed and lastly, the type of schedule such as Share Next and Schedule Post.
The above 4 steps are the ones that majority of you should be using. While this is doable for 10 to 30 posts, imagine uploading around posts by the hundreds to multiple social media accounts.
Trust me, it is:
And you may even break your laptop screen for that matter.
So, how can you use Buffer like a professional?
Introducing BulkBuffer.
As for the disclaimer, this application is not associated what-so-ever with Buffer app. It is a freemium, third party application that allows you to upload a maximum of 250 posts per time to your Buffer account.
Basically, the concept is simple:
Why do I love this application?
Imagine uploading 250 posts at one time to all or selected social media accounts. Imagine how much time could I save just for this?
The below are the steps you need to take to use BulkBuffer correctly.
Pretty clear cut and what I love about the dashboard is the clean look.
Yes! You can select all the social accounts you have in your Buffer account. Imagine uploading 250 posts to all of these social accounts with just one (or two) clicks.
Selected social accounts will be in blue while non selected would be in white colour.
After you have uploaded the file, you can even sort the positioning using the '+' sign on the left or 'delete' the whole post.
You can also manually add content using 'Add a new update…' column.
Full domain URL can be used and once being exported to your Buffer account, they will be converted into Bit.ly (if you have enabled it on Buffer) or the standard Buff.ly shortener.
Through my experience using BulkBuffer, it works 99% well except for one part; unable to convert symbols correctly.
If you are uploading posts that have symbols in it, it is always advisable to verify the content uploaded before hitting the send button below.
Yes, you are all set now. Give it a good 10 minutes if you are uploading a huge file via BulkBuffer. Usually it takes less than 3 minutes to complete the upload.
The last part I usually do is to sort everything on Buffer to make it even more 'genuine'.
You wouldn't want to share the same article 3 times in a row on the same day!
I have a few questions in my mind right now for you.
Do you use Buffer for social media marketing and are you utilizing Buffer to it's maximum capabilities? Leave a comment below and let's discuss.

This post is part of a series spotlighting Asia Pacific nonprofit organisations that have incorporated a thorough understanding of technology and education into their learning programmes for youth. These organisations attended Microsoft's Tech4Good Summit (12-13 February 2014) in Singapore.
In 2012, New Zealand's high-tech industry contributed more than US$2 billion in exports, and is seen as a promising drive behind the nation's economic growth. Despite this and having a population of young people ranked among the most tech savvy in the world, Kiwi employers are still struggling to fill positions in the IT sector, attributing this to inadequate skills among candidates.
Participants with their tools at one of the High Tech Youth Studios
It is for such opportunities that learning and development nonprofit organisation (NPO) High Tech Youth Network implements skills training for underserved young people in the Oceania region. Their main programmes, the Studio and the Academy, provide training in 3D engineering, animation, robotics and video game development.
At the six High Tech Youth Studios across New Zealand, young people, ranging from age eight to 25, work closely with volunteer industry mentors, using state-of-the-art facilities that are kitted out with 3D printers, a music recording studio and even a green screen area and film editing studio. Here, participants can also utilise professional software, such as Microsoft Kodu, Adobe Creative Suite and Sony Vegas to learn and create.
The High Tech Youth Academy, formally launched by Prime Minister John Key and Managing Director of Microsoft New Zealand Paul Muckleston, will open its doors to students aged 17 to 24 years old in March 2014 to steer them towards different pathways in the high-tech and creative sector—with a stronger emphasis on current and future technology concepts in hardware, application and creative fields. The Microsoft IT Academy programme will be incorporated in the offerings to link participants to employment opportunities in tech industries.
Filemoni Timoteo, the organisation's Chief Operating Officer, believes in social-cultural constructivism as the ideal pedagogy. The theory posits that people learn best through doing, allowing participants to construct personal meaning from their experience. "We see our programmes as providing a solid foundation for learning—with flexible parameters," he said, and added that "the only limits come from the learner's own ambitions and dreams."
To date, Studio members have successfully had their stories selected for the media arts conference biennial Adobe Youth Voices Summit, a week-long gathering of young people and educators from around the world to celebrate the creativity and promise of the next generation.
"The beauty of technology is that it doesn't discriminate. It enables anyone, regardless of age, ethnicity or gender, who has the access, to create—anything," said Filemoni.

Yesterday in her interview with NBC, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) told NBC's Brian Williams that she rejected the "label" of being called a feminist:
WILLIAMS: Governor, are you a feminist?
PALIN: I'm not going to label myself anything, Brian. And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America, different backgrounds, different — I'm not going to put a label on myself.
But in the past, Palin has been more than willing to tout her feminist credentials. From a Sept. 30 interview with CBS's Katie Couric:
COURIC: Do you consider yourself a feminist?
PALIN: I do. A feminist who believes in equal rights.
Palin then went on to talk about her upbringing — "I've been brought up in a family where gender hasn't been an issue" — and how her feminist "started with that." Watch the two appearances:
So basically, Palin isn't willing to call herself a feminist when in the room with two men (Williams and McCain) but is more than happy to do so when talking with another woman (Couric). As Rachel Maddow commented on her MSNBC show yesterday, "Why was that horrible label OK last month, but now it's horrible? Has it been a bad month for labels, Sarah the maverick?"
More here on Palin's decidedly anti-feminist positions.

GRS riflestocks made in Hornindal NORWAY
GRS (GrodasRifleStocks) is a segment under Grodas Monsterteknologi AS. GM was established in 1983 - in a basement - with production of handcrafted livingroom furniture in birch as a specialty. Two years later a new factory was built in Ytre Haugen in Horindal and investments was done in more machines. At this time we also established the business as a sub-supplier of furniture parts for the furniture industry, with production of chairs and visible woodwork on sofas.
The new technology gave us new opportunities. Development of tecnology and machines was therefore a strategic important choice. GM has stopped producing our own brand of handcrafted furniture, but the wooworking experience and knowledge is still the foundation for the business. Today we are heavily supplied with both knowledge and high-tech machinery.
Over time we built up alot of experience on weapons, competitive shooting and hunting through personal and professional interest. We combine this with our knowledge of CNC machining and material technology and deliver cutting edge solutions for competitive, long range and hunting needs. This is the base for all GRS products.
Through creative solutions - from idea to finished product - GRS will become the the leading developer and manufacturer of riflestocks for hunting, competitive and longrange shooting in Scandinavia and Europe.
We will be a innovative and trusted partner for our suppliers and customers.
All development will be with the end user in mind.
No compromise - only the best when precision counts!

Women Who Write's Third Annual Conference a Great Success
by Deborah Amadei
Women Who Write, Inc. a New Jersey based writers collective, held their third annual writers conference on September 28, 2013 with a crowd of 77 attendees and 9 faculty members.
After opening remarks and instructions by Women Who Write President, Ginger Pate, and Conference Chair, Pat Weissner, attendees dispersed to one of three writing tracks: poetry, prose and children's.
Award winning poet and Fairleigh Dickinson faculty member, Rene Ashley opened the poetry track with "Logic For Poets" in which she attempted to bring her audience to a leaping point from classic logic to a more open form of communicating truth, a sophisticated approach to writing poetry.
"We all very much enjoyed her engaging personality," said Mary Lee Waldron.
In "Changing the World," Sean Nevins, another award winning poet and Drew University faculty member focused on generating poetry that allowed poets to share universal experiences through the individual lens. Using the example of what one person had for breakfast, the discussion ensued on details of this breakfast. The point made was that poets must control which details to include and which to leave for the reader to fill in. Attendees were given an assignment: pick a meaningful object, create a cascading list of details and create a poem.
Literary agent Barbara Poelle challenged her prose group audience in her session "Trimming the Fat and Refining Your Voice. She introduced a writing exercise called "24 in 24", in which her students would write 24 titles in 24 hours. For this session she narrowed it down to 10 titles in 10 minutes.
"The ideas that writers in our group wrote down were fascinating," said Norma Hopcraft.
According to Author Peggy Ehrhart, in her session, "Powerful Plots: How to Structure a Narrative that Keeps Readers Turning the Pages, an ordinary story can be made into a good piece of prose; it's not the story but the way it's told that matters. A plot has to have an inciting incident and should lead to a change in the protagonist. The dramatic question, "Will she survive?" advances the plot. The audience was asked to pick three favorite books and describe the Inciting Incident or the Dramatic Question for each.
The turning point of a story happens when either the main character moves from a down situation and then turns up, or the character is down and goes further down.
Brett Wright, Associate Editor, Bloomsbury Children's Books, gave the morning presentation for Children's Track, "So Your Characters Walks into a Plot Hole & Other Common Traps to Avoid in MG and YA Manuscripts." The reader needs to be hooked right away. The first chapter gets the momentum going. Major characters need to be introduced in the first thirty pages. Too much backstory can slow a story down. The writer needs to keep in mind what journey the main character is going on. Make the ending be satisfying but don't spend too much time on it.
When Laura Biagi, Jean V. Naggar Literary Agency, reviews a picture book manuscript she asks these questions: Does she love the book? Will it sell? Five hundred word picture books are selling for fiction, 800 for nonfiction. She discussed different kinds of picture books: high-concept, which has a unique angle, plot-driven books which have conflict driven by the character. A character-driven book has to have a unique character. She passes if the story is too quiet.
The session on self-publishing: "eBooks 101: An Author's Toolbox for Digital Publishing" was presented by Jita Fumich of Folio Literary Management and Daniel Nayeri, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Digital publishing has two categories: open platform vs. curated brands (curated by editor). With open platform the author does much of the work herself. Another option is assisted self-publishing such as Smashwords and BookBaby. With self-publishing the book goes directly to retail.
Additional reporting was provided by Mary Lee Waldron, Norma Hopcraft, Mira Peck and Ronnie Hammer.

1991 Acura NSX: The Way Hondas Used To Be
December 16, 2011
Last week, I posted on how Mike gave me the Acura NSX for a week with the understanding that I'd be Mr. Nice for about 500 miles. No problem, I thought. But after a few days of just dawdling around town, I was getting antsy. And the NSX wasn't helping. "C'mon," it'd whisper in my ear. "School drop off is booooorrrring. I need to rev. Let's go have some fun." Well ...OK. But just don't tell Mike, OK?
So on Wednesday I took a couple hours and headed up to one of my favorite driving roads. And I'm glad I did. This car is rad.
Even if you haven't driven an NSX, there's probably an idea in your head (from reading various stories over the years) that you know what the car is all about -- all lightweight aluminum construction, mid-engine, high-revving, etc. But the actual experience of driving it on a curvy road is like going from a black-and-white photo to full-color HD IMAX in 3D and surround-sound.
This NSX represents everything that used to be golden about Honda.
The V6 is glorious. It's like you have your own personal F1 engine wailing behind your head as you nail the throttle. But it's more than just that. You get to savor it. With a long throttle pedal travel, an 8,000 rpm redline and only five gears, each run through a gear is drawn out. It's sort of cliche to say that a sports car's soul is its engine, but it's very much true for the NSX.
The shifter is a delight. It falls right to your hand, and has a great combination of lightness and direct positive action. There's a connection here to the NSX that will always be missing with a modern dual-clutch automated transmission.
The view from the windshield is still incredible. I remember reading long ago how Honda wanted the NSX's view to seem like an F-16 fighter's. I haven't sat in an F-16 (what, and you have?), but it seems like a good analogy to me. You're low to the ground, and the nose just drops away, letting you see the pavement rushing up to meet you. The A-pillars are thin, too, in a way that you don't see anymore.
I didn't drive the NSX hard around corners. But my pace was good enough to get a sense of the steering and balance. The steering certainly has some heft to it in that old-school car kind of way. You have to muscle the NSX into a corner a little more than with any modern car. But there's plenty of feedback through the wheel, and the NSX just seems so purposeful and enjoyable.
I suspect that when we test our NSX, the hard numbers will not be all that amazing in modern context. Heck, it's likely that our long-term Mustang GT is just as quick, or even quicker. But the NSX is so much more involving to drive. No turbos. No airbag collections. But it's still comfortable and harmonious. It's a driver's car.
I was talking to Scott Oldham yesterday, saying how the NSX is a great reminder on how cars (or Hondas) used to be.
"No, the way they should be," he replied.
Brent Romans, Senior Automotive Editor
Update: In my original copy, I said our NSX had electric-assist power steering and lacked stability control. Wrong. No power assist for manual-trans cars in 1991, I'm told, and editor Josh Jacquot says it does have stability control.

There is a definite possibility that the official price of OPEC oil could drop by $4 a barrel after a meeting of OPEC ministers in Vienna Dec. 19, say sources close to Arab officials.
If it happens, consumers might not see much lower gasoline or home-heating prices. Instead, many governments, including the United States, are expected to consider imposing a new tax on imported oil - to keep prices level, dampening consumer demand for oil and raising government revenues.
Even if the official price of OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) drops, Iran, Libya, and Venezuela may keep on selling oil at a discount as they are now and ignore OPEC quotas, perhaps triggering a price war that could drive prices down even further.
Echoing widespread concern about a possible price drop, the chairman of British Petroleum, Peter Walters, said Thursday that any reduction in Vienna could set off a downward spiral that would endanger the world financial system.
If OPEC nations lower their prices, the argument goes, they have less money to put into international banks, and the banks would have less money to lend to developing countries with high debts. If just one developing nation defaults on a loan, confidence in international banking circles could be seriously eroded. The world would face a ''liquidity crunch.''
At the same time, developing countries that are oil-producing nations, either in or outside of OPEC, would also find their oil assets worth much less and face a financial crisis.
Sources close to Arab officials in the Gulf say Gulf states threatened a drop on the order of $4 in meetings here and in the Mideast on the eve of the OPEC ministers meeting in Vienna Dec. 19.
The hope of Saudi Arabia was that the threat itself was enough to bring OPEC ''rogue elephant'' members such as Iran, Libya, and Venezuela back into line with the current official price of $34 a barrel.
All three ''rogues'' need cash urgently in a buyers market. All are producing well above OPEC production quotas set last March, and are selling at substantial discounts in a variety of ways.
The threat may work, sources predict, but most feel that Vienna will see more disarray in OPEC, not less, and will end without definite price decisions. Discounting will continue as world demand remains low.
OPEC, the argument goes, faces the biggest-ever threat to its existence. And a $4 drop, taking the basic price for Arabian light crude oil down to $30 a barrel, would be Saudi Arabia's way of trying to reimpose OPEC unity and cohesion.
The decision could be taken at the next OPEC meeting, or at a session of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) soon after the Vienna session. The council is made up of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, and Qatar.
Saudi Arabia's oil minister, Ahmad Zaki Yamani, supported by Kuwait and other moderate Gulf states, is reported to prefer to protect the $34 price if possible , but to be ready to cut at least $4, if necessary, to make OPEC oil more attractive.
Mr. Yamani is also being pressed to lower the Saudi base price by the four major oil companies in Aramco, which are losing money by paying Saudi Arabia $34 a barrel when spot prices are already as low as $26.
''The one way OPEC can regain more of the world market share for oil is to sell more cheaply,'' says a veteran industry source just back in London after visiting the Gulf.
''OPEC simply can't keep the $34 mark when demand is so flat. It's going to stay flat next year. Yamani agreed to go up from $32 to $34 earlier this year to keep OPEC unity. Well, there's no unity now.''
An experienced nonindustry observer of the oil scene for many years agrees. ''Four dollars, I think,'' he predicted after talks with senior Arab oil officials.
The conventional wisdom is that there is a world oil glut, and that it is expected to continue until 1984 or later. A dissenting view comes from the 21 -nation consumer watchdog in Paris called the International Energy Agency, which argues that the glut is an illusion caused by a rundown of stocks. By the end of this decade, the IEA says, oil shortages and higher prices will recur.
Industry sources reply by pointing to new oil indications off California and China. They say oil reserves will be abundant for many years to come. They agree that world demand will pick up when recession eases, but make two further points:
* Demand will rise slowly because many people have insulated their homes and bought small cars, and many computers are in place, using less energy than big factories.
* If OPEC survives, or is replaced by a Gulf-state group, it will not repeat the experience of the 1970s and let prices jump too fast.
Today, prices have come down on spot markets to as low as $26 to $28 a barrel for Arabian crude. OPEC rebels are trying to cash in, and non-OPEC states, such as Britain and Norway, are being forced to keep their own prices low to compete.
A number of sources agree that a $4 OPEC drop would simply force Libya, Iran, and Venezuela to lower their own discounted oil to as low as $22 to $24 a barrel.
''If we then had a free falling price and a price war,'' comments one source, ''all kinds of implications follow, none of them good.''
There is a degree of unity on what those implications may be. From sources as diverse as pro-OPEC Mideast specialist Robert Mabro of St. Antony's College, Oxford, and Michael Roeskau of the IEA in Paris come this listing:
* The world banking system would be faced with less OPEC money to lend to debt-ridden developing nations.
* Consumer nations would be tempted even more to relax efforts to conserve energy, concentrate on coal, and develop synfuels and nuclear energy. Falling prices already make many synfuels projects uneconomic.
* New financial difficulties would lie ahead for other non-OPEC states such as Britain and Norway, whose oil revenues would drop at a time of deep recession.
Oxford's Mr. Mabro and other sources see Vienna as paving the way for yet another OPEC meeting next year, which could then see a price cut.
According to another scenario, chaos in Vienna will be followed within a week by a meeting of the GCC. That meeting would decide to lower the standard price to $30.
The IEA sees world consumption back up to 50 million barrels per day or 56 bpd if economic growth is higher. Current world consumption is around 45 million bpd.

Whether we like aging or not, it is inevitable and better than the alternative. However, there are ways that you might slow it down so you can age in a healthier way and more gracefully.
But what is this trick?
Well, it isn't just circumstance but instead all reliant on what we do. Research points to diet affecting the body cells associated with aging. Prepared meals and other foods might actually accelerate aging but there are other ways to prepare food which might actually slow the effects.
From Fruits
There are numerous fruits and vegetables which contain high levels of antioxidants to prevent aging and other adverse effects of free radicals in the body.
As far as fruit, the most effective is avocado because it helps to cleanse the body of burnt fats. Citrus fruits such as lemons, grapefruits, and oranges, which have antioxidant properties but are also high in vitamin C.
From Vegetables
Broccoli is also a great source because it actually hinders the formation of free radicals and research indicates it can even reduce the risk of cancer by two-thirds. Another green veggie high in antioxidants which helps prevent aging is spinach which contains the antioxidant lutein.
Carrots, onions, garlic and tomatoes are also great for anti-aging. Carrots are high in beta-carotene. Just one glass of carrot juice contains 24 mg of beta-carotene and this compound is effective for protecting against disease. Note that cooking the carrots doesn't destroy beta-carotene.
As far as onions and garlic, the garlic is wonderful for maintaining the health of blood vessels in the body and also helps to regulate blood pressure. This can also protect the body from the bad cholesterols.
Tomatoes which are in a form of concentrate are actually the highest source of lycopene which is an antioxidant that helps maintain many healthy bodily functions. It isn't destroyed by cooking either.
Kale is a great green veggie that should be cooked briefly. Do not overcook it! It helps contribute to the prevention of stomach and breast cancer.
Grapes and berries are also wonderful sources of aging-prevention antioxidants. Black grapes in particular have skins and seeds along with the antioxidants which help to balance cholesterol and prevents blood clots.
Folic acid should be also noted for its importance for the blood vessels and brain. There are also other plants that prevent aging. It's also important to maintain healthy levels of movement, physical activity and a moderation of tension and stress. It's purely up to you how you want to live your life with a healthier well-being.

Seevic College has appointed a new Principal.
After three years as deputy principal at Redbridge College, Dan Pearson has taken over as Principal and Chief Executive at the college in Benfleet.
Mr Pearson has worked across several colleges in London, Kent and Hertfordshire and has lead teams of staff to achieve Good & Outstanding Ofsted status.
The established college in Runnymede Chase offers a wide range of A levels, vocational courses and apprenticeships as well as higher education and adult courses and has around 2,500 students.
Mr Pearson said he was excited to join the college.
He said: "I'm honoured to be in a position to add value to the colleges strengths, and lead on curriculum innovations and improvements, to ensure we offer unique and high quality learning experiences for our students.
"Despite the inevitable challenges Principals face during this time of Area Reviews, I feel reassured the spirit and passion of the college staff will give me support and keep me energised."
Mr Pearson replaces outgoing Principal and Chief Executive Nick Spenceley who announced he was retiring in February.
Mr Spenceley was diagnosed with prostate cancer shortly before commencing his role at the College in January 2013.
Prompt surgery followed by a rapid recovery enabled Mr Spenceley to take up his duties just one week late.
However, two further cancer-related health scares lead to his decision to step down after three and a half years.
Mr Pearson said he wants to build on the college's successes and was looking forward to bringing some new ideas to the campus.
He added: "I want to make sure students are leaving college with the skills employers want. We will work very closely with local and national employers to give our students every possible opportunity to succeed in securing employment.
"Above all, I want to keep Seevic a safe, friendly and welcoming environment for all students."

Posted: 09/20/17 13:45
by Dave Mindeman
I spent some time with Angie Craig on Tuesday morning. We had a great discussion - we talked policy for over an hour and a half.
With all the concerns over health care, I can't imagine that Angie Craig would not be the best person imaginable to evaluate that policy as the next Congress tackles how to fix it.
Although I, personally, favor a single payer plan - we both had to agree that it isn't quite as simple as one would hope. If single payer gets sidetracked or cannot be made to work (it failed badly in Vermont), then Angie has a clear path to fix the ACA.
The three musts are:
1 - Public Option
2- Restore re-insurance that Republicans eliminated
3- Lowering Medicare eligibility or allow buy in
Whatever the next health care phase (if we get by this Republican obsession with ruining it), we need people in Congress who really understand how it works. Craig brings her experience in the health care industry with Medtronic; she brings her personal experience of growing up without or virtually without health care coverage; and she brings the experience of running a race where Republican distortions on health care were front and center.
2016 was a very strange year. Angie Craig should be in Congress right now. Tim Walz talked to her after the election and he was shocked as well. He felt he was in a comfortable position and actually helped Rick Nolan in the 8th because they thought that would be close and he thought Angie was going to win. In the end, Rick Nolan won comfortably, Angie lost, and Tim Walz barely squeaked out a win. Everything was turned upside down.
But voters who voted for the radical change may be having second thoughts. I can't believe that this is the result they intended.
The DCCC has done some preliminary polling. Generic Democratic congressional support is up 6 points since the election.
This race can be won - but 2016 will always be the caveat against over confidence. We need to back Angie Craig for another try. We need her experience, here expertise, and her passion to find what works for us.
I am convinced that this is the path to 2018. Let's get it done.

MLB Mascots
Contemporarily, a
mascot is an anthropomorphized character, which represents a group with a
common identity, such as a school, professional sports team, or
corporation. Since the man has always been in an awe of the wild beasts,
this could have probably led to the MLB teams to adopt monsters as their
symbols and their lucky charm. These distinguished creatures stand on
their hindpaws symbolic of athletic achievement, civic and corporate
pride. Their elegance and authority, rapidity, intellect and diligence
make them pampered fellows. Particularly when they wear cute, luxurious
clothes and put on stately crowns, they become all the more adorable. For
their sweet mischievous activities beauty queens and political candidates
often kiss them. Hmmm! Lucky fellows!
But one cant
ignore that they carry a great share of responsibility. They lead the
parades, cheer up the players, play with the young children, promote
the organization or city during a special event or festival, entertain
fans at sporting and school events, or provide family entertainment at
birthday parties.
The MLB teams
are often recognized by their mascot. They have used them in their
ceremonies, both in primitive costume form, and as models and statues
to bring good fortune. The clubs hire an individual who accompany them
to home and away games. He dresses up as the creature and amuses the
fans. Many of these mascots have a long and illustrious custom.
Many of
these mascots have a long and illustrious custom.
teams, such as the Dodgers and the Cubs have never had a mascot
while other teams had mascots but they were either retired or
replaced. The Yankees mascot, Dandy, lasted for a short while and
most people, including George Steinbrenner, have either become
oblivion of it or blocked it from their memories. The original
mascot in Cleveland was the Baseball Bug, who was so unpopular
that the fans habitually pelted him with garbage.
White Sox had two mascots - Ribbie, an elephant, and Roobarb,
who was an anonymous creature. There was a prompt resentment
from the fans towards them, even children overjoyed in
attacking them. Eventually, they were retired. In the early
80s the Giants launched Crazy Crab, the anti-mascot and
encouraged fans to hoot and mock at him. Unluckily the Giants
were having an offensive season and the unfortunate crab
became the object of abhorrence and neglect.
Mascot came
into English as a borrowing of the French word mascotte, meaning
mascot, charm. The inculcation of the word in the English Language
is a narration in itself. The concept of a mascot as a person, animal
or thing, bringing luck was set up when a French writer, Edmond Audran
(1842-1901) wrote a sequence of operettas. One of his most popular was
called 'La Mascotte' (1880). The story was about a farm girl who
brought good luck to whoever possessed her. The popularity of the
French opera was so immense that it was translated into English and
staged in England. The translated title became "The Mascot.
MLB Teams:
The best place to watch mlb baseball is at the ball park. Get your tickets to watch these mascaots live:
1) Wally the Green Monster
2) FredBird
3) Homer
4) Southpaw Also watch MLB Playoffs and World series at the ball park.

Law and order is essential in all communities and paramount to the survival of our society. They also help keep our society peaceful and problem free, establishing a set order. In a community where laws are followed properly, people can plan ahead, work in safety and do business with trust. Without laws, people would do what they want and it would quickly turn into complete anarchy. It would be difficult to make it through the day without being robbed or harmed. No one could trust in their own safety as one of the principal objectives of a country's legal system is to safeguard its citizens' rights. Typically the legal system is comprised of local and international laws, established by the government for all the members of the society to obey and follow.
The legal system impacts every law abiding citizen across every aspect of our daily lives. Here are just a few areas where the legal system plays a big part:
Establishing standards/Code of conduct – The law is a guidepost for acceptable behaviour in today's society. Some activities are not tolerated like crime, as well as certain behaviours that can injure or damage people and their property. For example, under the law, it is a crime to cause any physical injury to a person and doing so is considered as assault. The purpose of the code of conduct is to provide members of society with the guidelines for making more ethical choices.
Resolving conflicts and disputes – Conflicts and disputes can arise due to various reasons including; misunderstandings, poor communication, lack of planning, frustration and stress. Disputes are unavoidable in a society, where people all have different needs, values and views. Conflicts and disputes can also formed around issues like a commercial or residential property, work, landlord/tenant, neighbours, divorce or child guardianship to name a few. The law provides a formal means – the court system to resolve disputes. If you or any member of your family is in dispute regarding the real estate then a commercial property lawyer can help you resolve the issue. A property lawyer in Melbourne can review all the aspects of the property contract/agreement, survey the land in question and then guide you through the process of resolving the dispute. The federal court system and each state has its own separate court system. There are also various less formal means for resolving disputes and conflicts, collectively called alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
Protecting liberties and rights – The constitution of every country establishes various liberties and rights. The purpose and function of the law is to protect these from violations and unreasonable instructions by organisations or government. For example, the first amendment to the constitution prohibits the government from making a law that prohibits freedom of speech.
The above-mentioned points show how important it is to have laws in society to regulate a good relationship with each other. If there would be no laws then our society would not be able to work and function effectively. Laws provide boundaries so that people can realise when and where they are committing an offence.

Value Line is regarded as the best independent research available. More than just recommendations, Value Line provides the rationale behind its picks for greater understanding.
Shares of software developer Adobe Systems (ADBE) rose sharply following news from computer giant Apple (AAPL) that could lead to widespread adoption of Adobe's Flash software on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. Apple has relaxed restrictions on developers regarding the use of third-party software, such as Flash, in the operation of applications for Apple's portable devices. For security reasons, Apple, in the past, had been unyielding in its policy that any software used to create applications for its portable devices must be written to run directly on the operating system and not through intermediary software, such as Flash. Google (GOOG) had similar security concerns last month, and it stopped offering some wallpaper applications for phones running on the Android operating system.
With the increasing number of devices, from iPods to TVs to ATMs, that contain embedded communication links, online security has become a major issue. The main worry is that the intent of virus authors has changed dramatically in recent years. Whereas viruses in the past were mostly just a major nuisance, modern versions are written by professionals instead of amateurs, and are often financed by criminal enterprises or cybercrime rings.
Recent high-profile security breaches show just how vulnerable society is to cyberattacks. Every time a computer connects to a network and communicates with other computers, the user is taking a risk. Unfortunately, most governments around the world already have their hands full addressing other 21st century challenges. As a result, the private sector has come through with solutions, but it seems as though it is getting harder and harder to detect viruses.
The shear number of companies now addressing communications security underscores the growing seriousness of the threat. The space has for so long been dominated by just a few firms, like McAfee (MFE) and Symantec (SYMC). But smaller participants such as ESET, CommTouch Software (CTCH), Check Point's (CHKP) Zone Labs, and Kaspersky Lab, which makes the engine that powers software sold by Juniper Networks (JNPR) and Blue Coat Systems (BCSI), are gaining some notoriety. Even Microsoft (MSFT - Free Analyst Report) has entered the fray with a free offering called Security Essentials that is surprisingly effective. Even companies that have not traditionally operated in the security segment have joined the party. Last month, Intel (INTC - Free Analyst Report) made a bid to buy out McAfee at a generous premium.

Coburn: The 9 Trillion Dollar Man
In a press conference on July 18th, 2011, Senator Tom Coburn, Republican representing the United States of America, unveiled his plan to reduce the debt and deficit. In this exhaustive and thorough review of literally thousands of government programs, he released "Back in Black", stating his goal to stop making excuses and start solving the problem. Speaking plainly with respect to D.C. politics he went on to say;
"The American people are tired of Washington waiting until the last minute to avoid a crisis, particularly when it is a crisis Washington itself created. The crisis, though, is not the debt limit deadline. The crisis is Congress' refusal to make hard choices and reduce a debt that has become our greatest national security threat. The plan I am offering today gives Washington 9 trillion reasons to stop making excuses and start solving the problem."
Senator Coburn then took a defensive tone stating, "Both parties will no doubt criticize portions of this plan and I welcome that debate." The seasoned veteran Senator from Oklahoma quickly pivoted to continue on message, convincingly putting Country above politics. "My goal is not to replace the work of the budget committees but to show the American people what is possible and necessary. What is not acceptable, however, is not having a plan and delaying reform until some perfect political moment that will never arrive. The fact is doing nothing is a tax increase, a benefit cut for seniors and the poor, and a betrayal of the core values both parties hold dear," Dr. Coburn said.
"Back in Black", this 614 page report, can be accessed online @ Coburn.Senate.gov… The following is a summary of what I believe to be relevant. Arguably, the entirety of the report is relevant; therefore I highly recommend this as required reading.
Executive Summary: Senator Coburn wasted no time to call it the way he saw it. In his first paragraph he criticized his esteemed colleagues in Congress stating how they wait until the last minute to resolve a problem they created. The term limited Senator didn't stop there, although I was barely through smiling from his initial comment. The good Doctor went on to declare his outrage of spending of money we don't have for things we don't need. As for me, this is just too good to be true. Senator Coburn then began articulating his reasoning behind this uber debt reduction plan while debunking the solution of strictly continued borrowing.
"…But any debt increase not accompanied with meaningful savings will only temporarily postpone the inevitable. Real choices must be made to reduce spending, increase revenues, or both. If Washington does not begin making these difficult choices today, those decisions will be made for us tomorrow and the results could be catastrophic. "
Dr. Coburn went on to pontificate the future of Americans proclaiming the lower standards of living due to debt are the only guarantee. He backs this prescient thought with the Congressional Budget Office warning that the trajectory of U.S. debt will result in lower incomes, making future generations worse off. In this Executive Summary portion of the report, he continues with unforeseen problems that would essentially render the Federal Government helpless to respond.
There are no sacred cows in this report. He then went after special interest groups and politicians citing billions of dollars of waste, fraud and abuse under the guise of fear. This is the point at which I supposed this guy is either an authentic patriot or he's floating a trial balloon for 2016. After a quick jab he continued on his methodical reasoning approach citing the savings in the proper management of programs saving billions.
Senator Coburn continues his approach of attacking the absurdity of today's Congressional response to issues, followed by facts to back up his assertion of the absurd, then offering a pragmatic solution. He attacks the fact we spend 40 cents per dollar on interest. He attacks the fact only 15 senators voted against the infamous "Bridge to Nowhere." He also described capping spending as an over simplistic solution. Dr. Coburn calls out those represented by Lobbying groups; he describes Congressional partisanship as a game of political brinkmanship, claiming "the current environment makes it nearly impossible to navigate."
The report identifies Nine Trillion Dollars in very specific savings over the next 10 years. Senator Coburn believes a practical review of the federal budget is overdue.
"This report does just that. It provides a plan to put the U.S. back in black by identifying $9 trillion in very specific savings that can be achieved over the next decade. These savings are derived from consolidating duplication, weeding out waste, eliminating special interest subsidies, reducing overhead costs, demanding results, and setting priorities."
That's a glimpse into the Executive Summary section. For as it is, was and always shall be...The devil is in the details.

Branch Director
TORRANCE,CAShop with me
I would love to hear from you. Please contact me about how I can help you start or increase your new fashion jewelry business. We'd love to have you as a member of my ever growing Park Lane Jewelry family.
*Perfect timing*
I always said that jewelry would be my retirement plan, having worked with another jewelry company very casually "on the side" for a few years under the leadership of direct sales legend Katherine Chrisman many years ago when my son was young. I`m not yet retired, but I needed a new job as a result of the latest downsizing of my major aerospace company employer. This is the perfect timing: Katherine had just recently joined Park Lane Jewelry after doing tons of research. After checking out the company, I decided to follow in her footsteps. Park Lane is an amazing family business, started in 1955, steady growth, no debt, cash rich, and committed to helping people change their lives through the power of earning in direct sales. Thanks in advance for your support.
I would love to hear from you! Park Lane jewelry is gorgeous, well made, and has an unconditional guarantee!
Hostesses typically earn $300-500 free jewelry per show, which can be in the home, office, or even happy hour!
Fundraising is simple, with as high as 50% of the fundraiser sales going back to the organization.
Customers are spoiled every day! Park Lane has an ongoing customer sale, buy the two least expensive items and get the four most expensive items at half price!
I would be remiss if I didn`t tell you that if you are interested in earning extra money full-time or part-time, seasonally or year-round, please let me know. I will provide you the opportunity information with no pressure. You`ll be amazed to know that you can start for as little as $39 and you will get your first weekly paycheck soon after! I will be with you every step of the way to help you reach the goals that you set, on your schedule!

Ricki Lake Might Be The Worst Boss Ever
Ricki Lake's documentary The Business of Being Born, which premieres at the Tribeca Film Festival, features footage of the sometimes-pudgy former talk show host birthing it up in her bathtub at home. Fine! But the reason she opted for home birth is that "some New York hospitals' Cesarean-section rate tops 40 percent." Huh? Not according to a 2005 report by NYC public advocate Betsy Gotbaum, whose research puts the city's overall Cesarean rate at a still-high 26.4%, with New York Hospital boasting the city's highest cesarean rate at 37.3%. But that's not the only aspect of Ricki's recent chat with NY mag that we're hoping is a bit of an exaggeration: "'To this day,' says Lake, 'my assistant talks about how she had to clean up my bathtub afterward.'" All together now: ewwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Middlebury , town (township), seat of Addison county, west-central Vermont, U.S. The area was chartered in 1761, along with Salisbury and New Haven, and named for its location midway between the other two. Settled in 1773 by Benjamin Smalley, it was temporarily abandoned (1778 - 83) because of Tory and Indian attacks. Middlebury College (noted for its summer Bread Loaf Writers' Conference) was chartered in 1800, and the Congregational Church in the town was built in 1806 - 09. Vermont's marble-quarrying industry began there in 1803, and light manufacturing (food processing, plastics, and clothing) has succeeded it. Skiing and summer tourism are economically important. The famous Morgan horses are bred at a nearby farm managed by the University of Vermont. Area 39 square miles (101 square km). Pop.

10 Considerations When Buying Outdoor Storage Sheds
Outdoor Storage Sheds: Functionality, Appearance
Are you looking to buy a new outdoor storage shed? There are a number of factors to consider before making your purchase including size, price, materials used and design. Use this list to help narrow down your options to help find the right option for your specific situation.
1. Price vs. Quality in Outdoor Storage Sheds
Don't let the price of outdoor storage sheds be the determining factor for you.
Some shoppers, once drawn to the cheapest price, immediately thereafter put blinders on and ignore alternatives. Of the outdoor storage sheds I priced recently, those sided with cedar and vinyl (the highest quality sidings) were only a few hundred dollars more than outbuildings sided with lower-quality materials. Consider how much those few hundred dollars are buying before rejecting the cedar or vinyl.
2. Design of Outdoor Storage Sheds and House Design
Remember that outdoor storage sheds are not merely utilitarian items. In addition to their utility, the appearance of outdoor storage sheds affects the overall appearance of the property on which they are installed. As such, the unit you choose should be of a design that complements your home. Select one with a rustic design (for instance, board and batten) for a country-style house. If your house's style is more formal, select an outdoor storage shed with formal features to match (for instance, if your house has an arched window, carry the theme over to your outbuilding).
3. Outdoor Storage Sheds as Part of the Landscape
Integrate your outbuilding into the surrounding landscape. Plants can help outdoor storage sheds blend into a landscape, rather than sticking out like sore thumbs. Open up and plant annual or perennial beds around your unit. You can also install trellises up against the walls of outdoor storage sheds and adorn the walls with vines.
4. Comparison of Siding Materials for Storage Units
Natural wood is considered by many the most attractive siding for storage units. But wood exposed over time to water usually rots. Some woods, however, contain natural resins that make them relatively rot-resistant. Cedar is such a wood and very popular as a siding choice for storage units. But even cedar siding is not maintenance-free. Coat cedar with a UV-inhibiting sealer/preservative every other year to protect it from ultraviolet solar radiation.
Apply a clear stain, as well, to help preserve its natural beauty.
For maintenance-free storage units, vinyl is the preferred siding. Vinyl lacks the visual appeal of wood, but if you own a house with vinyl siding, a strong argument can be made for selecting a storage unit that is also sided with vinyl.
Due to their susceptibility to rust, steel storage units should probably be avoided. Among metal storage units, rust-free aluminum is usually the most sensible choice in siding. Metal siding is hardly the most visually appealing choice.
Particle board and plywood are composed of pieces of wood products that have been pressed and glued together. Although they are popular siding materials for storage units, they wouldn't be my first choice for regions where it rains a lot. For if water does work its way into these products (a possibility enhanced by their composite nature), then you're lost.
5. Before Installing Storage Units: Building Codes and the Like
Become acquainted with zoning ordinances, deed restrictions and building codes. Depending on your area, you may need a building permit. Building codes et al. may determine how far storage units must set back from property lines and what materials are acceptable for siding.
6. Site Preparation for Storage Units
Before installing storage units, lay down cinder blocks, concrete piers, a concrete slab or at least crushed stone. But don't stop there. Make sure the supports underlying the floor are made of pressure-treated wood.
7. Do-It-Yourself Outdoor Storage Buildings vs. Professional Installation
If you'd prefer all the work be done for you in installing outdoor storage buildings, then just select a shed from your local home improvement store and ask that it be delivered and assembled by the pros. But those who are handy may wish to save some money and order an outdoor storage building kit that comes with assembly instructions.
8. Will Your Outdoor Storage Building Be Big Enough?
Make sure the entry to the outdoor storage building is wide enough to accommodate your largest piece of equipment with room to spare. Many outdoor storage buildings that are at least 8' x 10' come with double doors, which usually eliminates this concern.
9. Accessories for Outdoor Storage Buildings
The small touches make such a difference! Some outdoor storage buildings come with French doors or cupolas. You yourself can add touches such as window boxes, shutters or weathervanes. Remember, you'll have to look at this outdoor storage building every day of your life for the foreseeable future: your attention to detail could make the difference between eyesore and eye-opener. On a more practical note, purchase or build a pressure-treated ramp for easy access to your outdoor storage building.
10. When One Outdoor Storage Building Isn't Enough
If the clutter on your property says one outdoor storage building isn't enough, but your wallet disagrees, supplement your main unit with one of the less expensive, smaller models.
There are three main types of such units, all of which go by descriptive names. 'Corner sheds' are made to fit precisely into a corner and run about 3' tall by 3' wide by 2' deep. Meanwhile, either a 'vertical shed' (5' x 3' x 4') or a 'horizontal shed' (3' x 5' x 4') may be just the handy outdoor storage building to fill your need for additional space.
Buying an outdoor storage building with a loft greatly increasing storage capability, allowing you to store rarely used supplies overhead.
For the exterior, build your own lean-to and attach it to the outdoor storage building to form a sheltered area for firewood.
Outdoor benches are sometimes made to be dual-purpose, offering a compartment to store tools and a cozy spot for taking breathers while mowing the lawn.
Potting sheds and small greenhouses are a boon to the true landscaping enthusiast. Some outdoor storage buildings come with large skylights and virtually function as greenhouses in their own right.

A major section of downtown Vancouver is being transformed into what could be one of the world's first purpose-built sustainable communities, where growing food is at the top of the list. The South East False Creek (SEFC) site comprises 32 hectares (80 acres) that will eventually be the home to 12,000 to 16,000 people.
The first phase of SEFC will be temporarily used as Vancouver's Olympic Village during the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.
When fully developed, SEFC will have 6 million square feet of development. This will include: more than 5000 residential units; a full-size community centre and non-motorized boating facility; three to five licensed childcare facilities; two out-of-school care facilities; an elementary school; restoration of five heritage buildings; interfaith spiritual centre and 10 hectares of park.
SEFC will be a model of sustainable development. Unique features include: urban agriculture; a rainwater management system; green roofs; and a neighbourhood energy system.
The SEFC development strategy serves many objectives (reduce energy and material consumption and the production of wastes; preserve the viability of ecosystems and halt the loss of biodiversity; ensure economic viability and vitality; strengthen social networks and enhance the quality of life for all in the neighbourhood), it also serves as a 'model' with respect to urban agriculture developments.
A Southeast False Creek Urban Agriculture Strategy policy study prepared for the City by the Holland Barrs Planning Group, now HB Lanarc, recommended community gardens, private (backyard) and semi-private gardens at grade, rooftop gardens and the use of balconies on residential buildings for food production, edible landscaping in public parks and selected street right-of-ways where appropriate, and commercial greenhouses.
Other food production elements recommended in the policy study and related reports involved aquaculture and on site food processing.
Another report prepared in 2007 dealt with designing urban agriculture opportunities for SEFC and provided a tool for designing urban agriculture into a neighbourhood development. This report offers design considerations for a full range of spaces from the private patio to the community demonstration garden. This report also offers technical and management considerations for planning a viable urban agriculture program.
The physical nature of SEFC zoning does not lend itself to a full-scale eco-industrial complex on the site, but the study recommended demonstration projects to showcase the concept and to learn more about the environment, agriculture and sustainable technologies that would be involved.
The report's recommendations found formal endorsement in the Southeast False Creek Official Development Plan.
The full report prepared by Holland Barrs Planning Group has many photographs of communal gardens and urban agriculture designs from around the world.
While not focused on a vertical high-rise farming, the strategic approach adopted by the City of Vancouver for the development of SEFC is an example of what will be required in other jurisdictions if urban agriculture is to take root.
The City of Vancouver has published Urban Agriculture guidelines to help integrate consideration of UA into the development permit process i.e. policy to support and incentives to help in the uptake of the initiative.

Was that a threat? Smells like one to me. What do you think?
Muslim leaders here are worried a push to send the SAS to fight ISIS-linked terrorists could fuel a backlash among the Muslim community in New Zealand.
Speaking to Radio New Zealand, Wellington's Kilbirnie mosque's Secretary of the International Muslim Association of New Zealand, Tahir Nawaz, says supporting the fight in Iraq would be a bad idea.
"We are a very good community here, we are very co-operative," Mr Nawaz said.
