The fifth installment of Sharon Lathan's Darcy Saga, The Trouble with Mr. Darcy continues the post-Pride and Prejudice narrative, picking up with Elizabeth Bennet Darcy pregnant with her second child, Alexander. The Darcys travel abroad and then back at home have the joy of welcoming their new addition to the family. However, things are not perfectly smooth after the birth of this precious child. Elizabeth is not herself, struggling with what we today call Postpartum Depression (PPD). This causes a huge rift in the relationship between Elizabeth and Darcy, causing alienation and pain on both sides. Their marriage is greatly tested, despite their years of strength and loving support.
Later in the novel, the Darcys face yet another crisis when George Wickham emerges on the scene again, in the area with wife Lydia to attend the wedding of her sister Kitty. George is bent on exacting revenge on Darcy and his family, and he enlists the help of another Darcy foe to collaborate with him in his schemes. Mr. Wickham is as charming and conniving as ever, but his resentments have degenerated into full-blown evil desires.
The Trouble with Mr. Darcy was almost like two stories for me—one detailing Elizabeth's PPD, and another surrounding the Wickham drama. The PPD storyline was very compelling. Sharon Lathan's experience and knowledge as a nurse were very evident, detailing the thoughts and emotions swirling about in Elizabeth's head during that time. I myself have not experienced PPD, but I have struggled with depression before, and I was very impressed with Mrs. Lathan's ability to enunciate the thought processes of someone struggling with loving their husband, yet feeling miserable at the same time. Sharon's knowledge served her well as she crafted this portion of the novel, as well as later on when Lizzy has a bout with mastitis, another painful ailment for mothers.
The Wickham drama was excellent. I was positively riveted as this colorful and provocative character reared his head yet again in the life of the Darcys. I will offer no spoilers, but I can say that this portion was very enjoyable, and I loved every bit of it. Sharon can certainly write an exciting page-turner.
Also within the book is the setup for Georgiana's own love story, which I assume will be told in the upcoming Miss Darcy Falls in Love. Sharon cleverly left out almost all details of Georgiana's tale, but gave her readers just enough information to anticipate this forthcoming title in November 2011 from Sourcebooks.
As was the case with Lathan's previous novel In the Arms of Mr. Darcy, there is more sexual content than I would prefer. For the most part it is all within the confines of marriage, so I applaud the celebration of marital bliss. So often in novels this is not the case. Sharon's Lizzy and Darcy are madly in love, regardless of years of marriage and more than one child. However, as a reader I could do without the amount of detail that is given of their bedroom activities. Lathan's writing is wonderful; she doesn't need to add this superfluous content. The riveting Wickham storyline and her delightful A Darcy Christmas are proof of this. When these intimate scenes come about now, I gloss over them and move on to the next conversation or event.
That one reservation aside, The Trouble with Mr. Darcy is a wonderful addition to the Darcy Saga. I have not read the first three titles in this series, and can objectively say that newcomers to Lathan's work could easily start with this title. I would recommend a rudimentary knowledge of Pride and Prejudice, so that the characters and the effect of their histories would make sense to the reader.
The love of Darcy and Elizabeth lives on in the pages of The Trouble with Mr. Darcy, and you will also find realistic struggles of new parents and captivating drama as well. Sharon Lathan continues to promote the philosophy of two becoming one, and I look forward to enjoying her vision of one of my favorite characters, Georgiana Darcy.

George Will writes on how the passage of campaign finance "reform" has turned the idea of protected free speech on its head by making the FEC an arbiter of what is and what is not allowed political speech. "It is a constitutional obscenity that no one now knows--or, pending many more FEC and court rulings, can know--what political speech is legal in this nation where the First Amendment is no longer even pertinent to protecting such speech."

Customize your JAMA Network experience by selecting one or more topics from the list below.
Ischemia-reperfusion injury is a significant factor contributing to morbidity and mortality following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate monohydrate (MC-1), a naturally occurring pyridoxine metabolite, prevents cellular calcium overload, and some data suggest it may reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury. In the MC-1 to Eliminate Necrosis and Damage in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery II Trial (MEND-CABG II), intermediate- to high-risk patients undergoing CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass were randomly assigned to receive 250 mg/d of MC-1 or placebo immediately before and for 30 days after surgery. The MEND-CABG II investigators found no difference in the composite outcome of cardiovascular death or nonfatal myocardial infarction among patients who received MC-1 vs placebo during the 30-day follow-up.
Valgimigli and colleagues report results of the MULTISTRATEGY randomized trial, in which patients presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction or new left bundle-branch block were assigned to 1 of 4 strategies of percutaneous coronary intervention: abciximab with an uncoated stent, abciximab with a sirolimus-eluting stent, tirofiban with an uncoated stent, or tirofiban with a sirolimus-eluting stent. The investigators found that tirofiban was noninferior to abciximab for achieving at least 50% resolution of ST-segment elevation at 90 minutes after the intervention. During 8 months of follow-up, patients who received sirolimus-eluting stents had a significantly lower risk of major adverse cardiac events compared with patients who received uncoated stents.
Examination of published articles and internal Merck & Co documents that became available during litigation involving rofecoxib provide evidence that the company may have inappropriately influenced the publication and reporting of scientific research relating to rofecoxib. Ross and colleagues examined the authorship of articles on rofecoxib to assess the extent of guest authorship and ghostwriting. They found that although the articles were often prepared by Merck employees or contract medical writers, first authorship was commonly attributed to academically affiliated investigators—who may not have been involved in the conduct of the study or analysis of the reported data—and who may have failed to disclose Merck's financial support. In a second article, Psaty and Kronmal reviewed documents relating to clinical trials of rofecoxib in patients with cognitive impairment and found that the risk-benefit profile of rofecoxib described in published articles and in analyses submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration was more favorable than that revealed in Merck's internal analyses of the trial data. In an editorial, DeAngelis and Fontanarosa discuss the adverse effects of industry influence on medical research and propose policies to safeguard the integrity of medical science.

Universal Body Image & Laser Center - FAQ
i-Lipo/Lipo-Light FAQ
How long is the treatment?
Your first appointment will include a 10-15 minutes consultation and the total treatment time will be 20 minutes. You will need to do 30 - 45 minutes of cardio at the spa immediately following your treatment. Can I workout in my own gym? Yes, this will be covered at the time of consultation. Your cardio workout should happen as soon as possible after your treatment.
Does the treatment hurt?
No,the treatment pads will feel like a mild heating pad.
What is the average inch loss per treatment?
This will depend on a few factors which will be discussed during your consultation. Your measurements will be taken several times during your series. Most patients will see an immediate loss after just one treatment. The average amount lost is anywhere from 2cm- to 1 inch each session. Obviously, the more committed you are to a healthy lifestyle, the better the results you will see. A healthy lifestyle needs to be adhered to and it is important to follow an exercise program to enable the released fat to be used up as energy. This should be done the same day as your i-Lipo treatment, exercise will enable the fat released from the i-Lipo treatment to be used up as energy. Exercise is done on the premises for best results. This can be discussed during your consultation.
Is i-Lipo safe for everyone?
i-Lipo is safe for both men and women. This is a body sculpting procedure that targets those problem areas that persist even with exercise and a healthy lifestyle. This procedure is not recommended for anyone with a BMI of 30% or more. You must be able to do at least 30 to 45 min. of cardio activity following the treatment. Contraindications for the i-Lipo treatment include: pregnancy, lactating and nursing, cancer or past history of cancer, metabolic disorders, liver or kidney problems, epilepsy, auto immune disease, thyroid and cardiovascular issues. If you have any of the previous conditions, it is mandatory that a doctor's note is sent to our office before receiving a treatment!
What areas of the body can be treated?
-chin and neck
Can I bring my children to UBI?
We ask that you do NOT bring your children to the treatment. Due to the high level of lasers, it is an unsafe environment for them to be in. If they are old enough to wait in the waiting room then that is acceptable.
How many treatments should I expect to reach my goal?
Every client will need a different amount of treatments. We want you to have realistic expectations and know that we recommend 8-20 treatments depending on the area. Like any laser treatment, Laser Lipo is a process!
The average amount per area
Arms: 6-8 treatments
Abdomen: 8-15 treatments
Thighs: 8-20 treatments
Does UBI offer payment plans?
Payment plans are available for some packages. The payment plan excludes any deals that we are running. Please call the spa for details (972-535-5580)
Does UBI accept care credit or my insurance?
We currently are not accepting care credit or any insurance.
What is the difference between i-Lipo & Lipo-Light?
The i-lipo uses a "cold" laser, has four paddles and the lipo- light uses an "LED" light, and has six paddles to penetrate into the subcutaneous of your skin. They both liquify the fat cells and force your body to use the fat cells as energy. We typically will alternate the clients between the two machines. Neither machine works better than the other!
How far apart do I have to wait in between the treatments?
We like to see our clients twice a week (waiting a day in between each one) until the sessions are complete.
Why is cardio important the day of the treatment?
Cardio is important the day of the treatment because it ensures that the fat cells liquified by the machines is burned out of the client's system. Your body uses the fat cells as energy when you are doing the cardio. If the cardio is not done, the fat cells can return back to the place they came from and there will be no visible loss.
Who is the i-Lipo not safe for?
The i-Lipo is not safe for women who are breast feeding, or pregnant. It is not safe for people who have a history of cancer, heart conditions, or thyroid problems.
Microdermabrasion FAQ
Who can benefit from Microdermabrasion?
Everyone - men and women of any skin type or colour. Skin that is aging, congested, flaky, dry, devitalized, thickened, blemished, dull and sun damaged can be rejuvenated and refreshed. Blotchiness, uneven skin tones and texture will also be improved. Even normal skin can be made to look fresher with a warm glow.
What areas can be treated?
The most common areas that are treated are the face and neck. In addition we can treat the chest, shoulders, back, hands, knees and elbows. Any body area can be treated.
Why does the skin benefit from Microdermabrasion?
Approximately every 28 days we create a new layer of skin. As new cells form they push their way to the surface and then dead cells settle on the surface. This can cause enlarged pores, clogged pores, a bumpy uneven texture, and a dull appearance. As we age this process slows down leading to the appearance of older skin with less radiance.
How does it work?
Microdermabrasion is a gentle exfoliation that is performed with a diamond-encrusted applicator tip. The tip passes over the skins surface, and creates a gentle vacuum. The diamond tip gently exfoliates approximately 20-25 microns of dead skin cells of the outermost layer (stratum corneum). Once removed, it reveals one's own fresher, younger looking skin beneath. One Microdermabrasion is equal to three 30% glycolic peels or one 70% peel.
Is Microdermabrasion the same as Dermabrasion?
No, Microdermabrasion is NOT the same as Dermabrasion. Dermabrasion is a much more aggressive procedure which has to be done in an operating room, whereas Microdermabrasion is much gentler and can be performed in the office.
How many treatments do you need?
This treatment is meant to be progressive not aggressive. Generally results are more noticeable after the third treatment. After the first session the skin will appear fresher, cleaner, smoother and softer for some clients. Usually treatments are performed every 4 weeks, but can be done more frequently. A typical course of treatment is a series of six Microdermabrasion sessions. Maintenance treatments are suggested once every one to one and a half months.
How long does it take?
The actual treatment usually takes 30-40 minutes, depending on the body area.
What are the side effects?
One may experience a slight tingling, and afterward the skin may feel tighter, as if exposed to the wind or sun.
The skin may appear slightly flushed and this generally fades in 12-24 hours.

This is a continuation of my recent post on the mountain film festival in China. Part of the International Outdoor Film Festival in Nanzi River was a charity event called The Walk for Love. I understood the money was raised to somehow improve water quality. They certainly need it as many of the waterways I observed were choked with algae.
There were about 3000 participants in the Walk for Love, which by Chinese standards is small. But the level of enthusiasm was high.
I was impressed by the level of affluence exhibited by the participants. The last time I was in a major Chinese urban area was 1990. Back then everyone seemed poor and they were all wearing Mao suits.
The event was well organized with several aid stations and lots of volunteers.
The locals were pretty excited about having foreign guests and everyone wanted to have their picture taken with us.
In addition to The Walk for Love, the event had an Adventure Race. It was a 24 hour event that started with a run, then cycling, and finishing with a float down the Nanzi river.
Our hosts took us on a float trip on the Nanzi River on the last day and we had a chance to see some of the adventure racers in their home made rafts.
Before boarding our raft the sign said people with mental disease, heart disease, hypertension, dementia, and drunk tourists couldn't participate.
I've always been amazed at the different types of bathroom facilities around the world. One of the common differences between what we use in the US and much of the rest of the world is the prevalence of squat toilets. At the bathroom before we boarded our bamboo rafts, there were universal language signs on the stalls indicating if it was a sit toilet or a squat toilet.
The raft we boarded was pretty rickety and once underway with everyone on board the deck was submerged about six inches. It didn't matter if it fell apart. We were wearing life jackets, the river was relatively flat, and the shore was never far away.
The drivers float the river by poling through the shallow sections. When it gets deeper they lower a prop attached to a shaft from a small engine and motor along. After we were dropped off downstream the drivers motor and pull their rafts back upstream to the starting point.
The food in China is quite different from a lot of other countries I've visited and what we have in Chinese restaurants in the US is very Americanized. At different times we were served bowls of fish heads, chicken heads, chicken feet, small snails where you suck the insides out, pork fat, and small crabs with the guts included. But for the most part we were served some very excellent food.

Cornerstone - Summer 2014 - (Page 57)
Sustainable Charcoal: A Key Component
of Total Energy Access?
By Aaron Leopold
Global Energy Advocate, Practical Action
nergy poverty fuels the poverty trap. Long hours of hard
manual labor, subsistence work, and wood gathering
leave people exhausted after a day's work. Teachers and
doctors cannot adequately perform their jobs without energy,
and often will not move to areas lacking such infrastructure
services. Without energy to pump water, crops whither and
people are forced to drink water they know is making them
sick. The list goes on, but there is more than just a litany of
moral arguments or basic needs surrounding the case to eradicate energy poverty.
In 2012, it was estimated that the 1.2 billion people at the
base of the economic pyramid lacking access to electricity
represented a largely untapped energy market of more than
US$500 billion per year.1 The IEA has shown that, of these,
84% (or one billion people) live in rural areas, and due to their
distance from existing energy infrastructure, only 30% of these
can be served economically through grid expansion by 2030.2
Put simply, of that $500-billion untapped market, traditional
utilities using traditional grid expansion as their main method
to connect new customers will be missing the vast majority
of opportunities for expanding their customer bases, brands,
and bottom lines. New and innovative business and service
Household air pollution created during cooking and heating,
often with unsustainable biomass, is responsible for about
4.3 million fatalities per year.
delivery models will be required for traditional utilities to reap
benefits from this hitherto untapped and unserved market.
Most of the market for rural, off-grid connections will need
to be served by diesel or diesel-renewable hybrid minigrids.2
However, one of the most energy-intensive household and
community activities will likely remain underserved by decentralized electricity options-cooking and heating.
"The cooking crisis represents a
global tragedy, but there are clear
and inexpensive avenues to address
it that would not only save the lives
of millions, but provide jobs for and
improve the lives of millions more."
An enormous part of the world's population, 2.8 billion people
(the majority of whom have electricity connections), rely on
traditional biomass such as wood and charcoal to cook, to
heat their homes, and to warm water.3 The indoor air pollution caused by these practices is the cause of one of the most
under-appreciated crises facing our world today: Such pollution is directly linked to an estimated 4.3 million deaths per
year, according to the World Health Organization4-more than
HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria combined. Furthermore,
over half the deaths of children under five are directly attributable to household air pollution associated with cooking with
solid fuels.4
Household air pollution causes a wide range of health problems, including pneumonia, stroke, coronary heart disease,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), respiratory
failure, and cataracts. Health, however, is not the only cause for
concern. Millions of women and children in rural areas spend
two to eight hours a day collecting firewood from woodlands,
exposing them to physical danger from wild animals, as well as
violence and accidents while carrying heavy loads of wood. On
the environmental side, the Food and Agriculture Organization
(FAO) estimated that, between 2000 and 2012, around 13 million hectares of forests were lost each year, approximately half

Heaven's Grocery Store
A two minute read.......
Read this story, and follow the recommendation at the
As I was walking down life's highway many years ago
I came upon a sign that read Heavens Grocery Store.
When I got a little closer the doors swung open wide
And when I came to myself I was standing inside.
I saw a host of angels. They were standing everywhere
One handed me a basket and said "My child shop with
Everything a human needed was in that grocery store
And what you could not carry you could come back for more.
First I got some Patience. Love was in that same row.
Further down was Understanding, you need that everywhere you
I got a box or two of Wisdom and Faith a bag or two
And Charity of course I would need some of that too.
I couldn't miss the Holy Ghost It was all over the place.
And then some Strength and Courage to help me run this race.
My basket was getting full but I remembered I needed
Grace,And then I chose Salvation for Salvation was for freeI tried to
get enough of that to do for you and me.
Then I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do the Masters will.
As I went up the aisle I saw Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside I would run into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful, the last things on the shelf.
Song and Praise were hanging near so I just helped myself.
Then I said to the angel "Now how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said "Just take them everywhere you
Again I asked "Really now, How much do I owe?"
"My child" he said, "God paid your bill a
long long time ago."
This poem has been sent to you with love and for good luck.
It originated in the Netherlands and has been around the
world 9 times.
The luck has now come to you and you will receive good luck
in the mail within six days of receiving this letter providing you sent it out
to someone else.
Do not send money as this message has no price. Do not keep
this letter but send it on to someone who needs good luck. Of course, good luck
is just another way of saying blessings.

Week 82: Mercy!
Hey y'all I don't have much time! Just remember to follow the example
of Alma, especially when you are going through hard times! I love this
Alma 36:18-19
18 Now, as my mind caught hold upon this thought, I cried within my
heart: O Jesus, thou Son of God, have mercy on me, who am in the gall
of bitterness, and am encircled about by the everlasting chains of
19 And now, behold, when I thought this, I could remember my pains no
more; yea, I was harrowed up by the memory of my sins no more.
Alma wants to change so much! When we follow him we will be saved!
I love you all have a great week!

If you are a frequent reader of my blog you know I had an pelvic ultrasound, which included a transvaginal ultrasound , as well as a uterine biopsy. That is where the doctor found Fred, a uterine polyp. Fred was biopsied. I am happy to report the results were that Fred was benign. Fred is very small and doesn't need to be removed. Fred gave me a few nights of worry, I will admit that. I still don't know how doctors and techs have any kind of clue of what they are looking at on scans and ultrasounds, that is why they get the big bucks I suppose. So I am still lucky. I am still in remission, and I have to constantly remind myself not to stress myself out about things that I have no control over, like these kinds of medical issues, financial issues, of which I have many, like most cancer patients I have lots of medical bills. I am lucky though, I have great insurance, it doesn't cover everything, but as my fiance said last night, it could be worse, there are lots of people who owe more than I do, and that is true. I have always said I would rather be broke than dead. The collection people keep calling, and I am working on getting a second job, and paying my doctors back is very important to me, after all they did save my life. But like I said, I am alive, I am in remission. I am able to blog here and do my podcast to help other survivors. I am lucky. Sometimes it takes something like Fred to remind me of that.

Accidentally, a laundry marker got in my dryer. It was in a dryer cycle and marked up the whole inside of the drum in approx 1/4 inch marks. These marks are also all over the 2 blankets that were in the dryer.

Try Goo off or acetone nail polish remover. Be sure it is well ventilated and use as little as possible as it may take the paint off if it is not stainless steel.
I would start with alcohol and elbow grease, then go to wd-40, turning the paper towels frequently. One of these remedies should do the trick for the dryer. Which ever one works on the dryer might work on the blankets. Keep in mind, however, the wd 40 is flammable and will need to be washed several times to remove it from all things, but it works on so many items that the website says 1000 uses! I keep it on hand for lots of things and it does indeed work for most.
I used this site when my kid put a marker in his pocket, and I washed it and dried it, it left purple marker all over the dryer drum. I used nail polish remover with a cloth and scrubbed it, then I soaked a towel in bleach and water and dried it. It all came off. It was wonderful. I just bought the dryer a month ago, thank god!
Bleach soaked towels (slightly diluted) works wonders for my hot pink spattered dryer drum after a pen when through! Thank God for these forums!!

During all four years, Kellogg was involved in the MacMurray wrestling program. He won a NCAA Division Heavyweight Championship. The Kellogg Wrestling Award was named after him and was given for the most falls in the least amount of time during MacMurray's wrestling tournament.
Education of deaf children has been a passion for Kellogg since he was fifteen years old and worked for a camp where deaf children "captured his heart." Later he came to MacMurray to study elementary education and liberal arts. Then, Kellogg earned his master's in education from the University of Pittsburg in special education and rehabilitation with an emphasis in Deaf Education. Continuing his education at Indiana University in Bloomington, Kellogg completed his doctorate in educational administration. Kellogg has also served as a consultant to Saudi Arabia in 2000 in order to help that country with their educational programs for the deaf and especially for those post-high school students.
Kellogg has been honored numerous times with a variety of awards from his alma mater and other organizations. The College has recognized him with the Varsity "M" Award in 1978, the Alumni Honor/Service Award in 1980, and the Alumni Association Board's Distinguished Alumni Award in 2003. In 1988, he was inducted into the MacMurray Athletic Hall of Fame. Kellogg has also been honored by the Public Service Commission in Lincoln in 1992 by receiving the "For Your Fellow Man" Award. In addition, he has been recognized for his service by receiving both the Service to Youth Award in 1994 and the Distinguished Kiwanian of Omaha in 1997.
Kellogg describes his greatest professional accomplishments as having a career in helping children in special needs to accomplish more than they were expected to accomplish. He is also proud to be a past member of the Alumni Board and a Lifetime Trustee of the College.
Kellogg and his wife Cathy have a son, Douglas, and a daughter, Kjirsten, who is a 2002 graduate of MacMurray.

I've owned a french press coffee maker for about since around mid-2008 but I have only become a truly avid french press user since the Spring of 2013. During my limited time using french presses I've come to know a few things very well. I know that a good press pot will filter out as much mud as possible from your cup and it will be easy to clean.
I've also found that better press pots use less plastic than their peers and their glass is protected from breakage. I also have found thermal insulated french press pots to be far more appealing than their non-insulated and cheaper brethren.
When I started using a french press I really only though they were all the same but in this short amount of time I've come to appreciate differences in style and function. As such I've sorted this page into more focused groups for easier browsing, categorization, and shopping.
As this site develops this page will likely expand to cover more types of french press coffee makers but in the mean time see the following page for my short list of the best french press coffee makers for sale today.
See the following pages to narrow down what you're looking for.
Large French Press Coffee Makers
This page features mainly coffee press pots that are 12 cups in size (~50-51 oz). Most pots this size are still affordable but they can get pricey if you look for stainless steel construction and double walled insulation. For me these are great to have but so long as you own a quality thermal carafe you don't need to pay up for insulation. Also, the fancier models tend to cost more but aren't necessarily better at making coffee.
Small French Press Coffee Makers
Unlike large press pots a small coffeemaker is far easier to take camping or traveling. These units can typically be found for less meaning there is less financial loss if they are left behind or broken while out of the house. They also make small batches of coffee around the house a lot simpler too.
French Press Travel Mugs
If you like french press coffee and travel a lot then you need to get a press pot travel mug. They are super convenient and come in many different styles. Here are some of my favorites.
Insulated French Press Pots
If you like to drink more coffee than a cup or two at a time and are considering buying a french press then make sure to spend the extra bit on an insulated model so that cups 2-4 stay hot while they wait for you to get to them. Here are some of the better press pots on the market in both stainless steel and glass.
Look for more pages to be published in the near future on the topic of:

Super Fuzz: Bottega Veneta's Brushed Curls and Burnt Orange Lips
There are few designers with as unwavering a vision of the woman they want to dress as Bottega Veneta's Tomas Maier—right down to the makeup she'll use before slipping into one of his nipped-waist fall frocks and heading out the door. In the days leading up to his Milan show, the designer sent fabric swatches from the collection to backstage pro Pat McGrath as inspiration for the "matte, matte, ultra beautiful burnt orange" lip color she created for the occasion. He was equally specific about their eye makeup. "Tomas really wanted that shade of deep brown on the lid, something to give it a bit of sexiness," said McGrath, who obliged with a haze of dark chocolate-colored pigment. It looked wonderfully grown up on the runway, providing a powerfully feminine alternative for those who don't plan on dipping into fall's emerging tough-chic (and potentially tough to pull off) makeup trend. Worn with a cloud of voluptuous curls that bordered on buoyantly, joyfully frizzy, models like Bette Franke and Daria Strokous seemed to straddle the line between 1940s noir femme fatales and 1970s Guy Bourdin bombshells. As it turned out, however, hairstylist Guido Palau had another muse in mind altogether: Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver. Get your Netflix queued up now.

Attending a conference and blogging it can be strenuous, so it's important to keep yourself well fed. Fortunately the Monterey Conference Center is just a brief walk from the old wharf, which is lined with a wonderful array of restaurants.
Here's the entrance to it, marked by a sign about its historic significance (that's not the Old Fisherman by the sign!).
The view from the restaurants is delightful…(thanks to an obliging waiter for taking our picture)
And we enjoyed a close look at this penguin.

Member Biography
Fred Victor Seibert
(1885.11.05 - 1966.03.22)
B.A.Sc, DLS, SLS, OLS, ALS
Commission #051
F.V. Seibert died at Victoria, BC, on March 22, 1966. Fred Seibert was one of the better known Canadian surveyors, having been with the federal government and subsequently with the Natural Resources Division of the Canadian National Railway.
He was born at Port Elgin, Ontario, matriculated from the Port Elgin Collegiate Institute and registered in 1903 in the '06 class of civil engineering at the University of Toronto.
After completing the first year of university, he interrupted his academic training and spent three years on lumbering work. Ernie Martindale, a long-time friend of Fred's, writes of this period as follows:
Fred recalled to me last fall how I and others had helped him brush up on his first year's work, which had become hazy after such a long period of separation. We continued the same course together, graduated at the same time, took our preliminary DLS examinations together and received our first employment as articled pupils at the same time. We went out to Edmonton together in the spring of 1909, and I saw him off to his job with Mr. J. MacFarlane, DLS, trudging in the mud behind a pack pony on the Stony Plains trail. Our party (A.W. Ponton's), returning down the fifth meridian trail, reached Wabasca the same day, in September 1910, that Fred, with Mr. A.H. Hawkins' party, arrived from the West - both parties on the way out to Edmonton. Fred, Bruce Waugh and I came east together. We wrote the same DLS exam, and were closely associated in the old Topographical Surveys Branch and the former National Development Bureau until Fred left for Winnipeg to join the Canadian National Railway as Western Superintendent of Natural Resources; and we have been the best of friends throughout.
Bruce Waugh, also a friend of Fred Seibert's, writes of their experiences in surveys:
It was in 1910 that I first met Fred, at Wabasca in northern Alberta. We were on our way back to Edmonton after a fourteen-month spell on a survey of the fifth meridian and the twenty-eighth baseline.
He enlisted in the Royal Flying Corps in 1917, being still in training at the end of hostilities. After World War I, he was, I believe, in charge of that experiment in clearing land by controlled fires, which didn't prove to be too successful. After that he had some part of a roving commission concerning the survey parties making stadia traverses of the Mackenzie River. The task he had was to have the Hudson's Bay Company locate food caches, during the winter of 1921-1922, along the route to the sixth meridian northward from the 60th parallel. He and the late Max Cameron started out from Providence and travelled south about 100 miles overland to locate the meridian. When they calculated that they must be getting close to the 60th parallel they climbed a tree on a slight ridge to see what might be seen and, lo and behold, three or four miles to the south of them they could see a cut-line and they were exactly on it. Anyway, that is the story and I believe it. Max was with me when we made a survey the following summer and, when we arrived at the starting point of our survey, Max immediately headed north from our camp and located the first food cache.
Fred Seibert had many affiliations. He was a former member of the advisory board of the Alberta and Northwest Chamber of Mines; a director of the Boy Scouts of Manitoba; past president of the Winnipeg Rotary Club and the Manitoba Chamber of Mines; past chairman of the technical bureau, Winnipeg Board of Trade; Past chairman of the Soil Products Research Committee, Manitoba Industrial Development Board, and a member of the Alberta Research Council governing body.
He was survived by his wife Winnifred; a daughter, Mrs. Sydney (Helen) Larman, Winnipeg; a brother, Herbert, Edmonton, and two sisters, Mrs. Thomas (Florence) Atkinson, Edmonton, and Mrs. Lorne (Marguerite) Akins, St. Albert, Alberta.

Philosophical foundations of filial piety
(Chinese Social Sciences Today)
Family and Filial Piety
Author: Zhang Xianglong
Publisher: SDX Joint Publishing House
I was very surprised that a serious philosophy work like Family and Filial Piety could attract so much attention, as it incurred criticism as soon as it was published. But despite my surprise at the quick and ardent response from academia, the reaction is reasonable, since family and Xiao, meaning filial piety, as a gene of traditional Chinese culture, has suffered constant sabotage. But still, it has remained alive in Chinese people's subconscious.
The book aims to examine the philosophical foundations of filial piety. Elaboration on family issues account for a big part, because views about family and filial piety are inseparable. On the one hand, as Zhang Xianglong said in the introduction of the book, comprehension of the conception and behavior relating to filial piety is the key to understanding family and the uniqueness of humanity. On the other hand, filial piety first takes shape between family members. In Confucius's view, there can be no filial piety without a home and no home without filial piety. Filial piety is one pillar of Chinese civilization, as well as the essence of Confucianism.
However, filial piety and familial ethics encountered increasing criticism after the 1840 Opium War. Chinese scholars blamed the disaster on the military, industry and ultimately culture at that time, claiming it was Confucianism that accounted for China's decline and inability to fight against foreign invasion. Scholars like Chen Duxiu, Xiong Shili, Fu Sinian and Hu Shi all criticized filial piety and familial ethics, believing that these creeds hindered the development of Chinese society. Similarly, in the West, Bertrand Russell argued that filial piety is the only thing that betrays common sense in the Confucian philosophical system.
At present, filial piety is not facing a good situation. The opposition to filial piety peaked in the 1960s and the 1970s. After the reform and opening up in 1978, filial piety faced less criticism with a better political, ideological and cultural atmosphere. But at present, the tide of materialism and globalization, shrinking families and the prevalence of individualism are all eroding these traditions at a deeper level. Senior citizens are experiencing more marginalized social status, and the intergenerational relationship that was once characterized by "bringing up and reciprocation" is seriously imbalanced. Among those factors that affect the living standards of Chinese old age groups, the lack of filial piety is the root cause.
Zhang has studied filial piety from philosophical perspective for more than a decade. He ties the philosophical basis of filial piety to the relationship between human nature and the ethics creed. When we examine filial piety from multiple angles such as human revolution and family bonds, it presents some complexity and fragility. When a broader anthropological vision is introduced, especially the phenomenological view of time and the idea of modern language, the relationship between filial piety and human nature is revealed. Zhang believes that the key is recognizing that the parent-child relationship is essentially a life, time relationship, while elaborating on the relationship between the life, time relationship and inner time consciousness inspired by the phenomenological time view, then the relationship between filial piety and human nature is clearly shown.

"You know you're wealthy when you're happy," a teenager from Australia says. A retiree from Los Angeles says you know you're wealthy when you aren't worrying about what's in your checking account. For a musician and DJ living in Southern California, being wealthy means moving out of an old neighborhood and into a better place.
The Venice Beach boardwalk attracts all sorts, and we got all sorts of answers when we asked people to finish the sentence: You know you're wealthy when...
You know you're wealthy when...
"You know you're wealthy when you change zip codes," says Jerome Dyson, a DJ and musician who lives in Los Angeles. Dyson says that when you achieve wealth, you can move up – which means moving out of your old neighborhood. His current zip code is 90929, "but I moved from 90291. So I guess I made it."
The simple life
"You know you're wealthy when everything in life brings you joy," says Vanessa Donatucci, a regional sales manager for a construction company in Pennsylvania. "To be wealthy isn't necessarily about money. It's more about living simply and taking pleasure in the small things you do daily."
You've got it covered
"You know you're wealthy when you don't have to worry about your check bouncing," says Melrose Sprague, a retired textbook coordinator for a public school district in Southern California. Sprague says she's not worried about bouncing checks at this point in her life. "I do have a six-figure checking account, but it hasn't changed me. I'm still the same Melrose."
Doing what you want
Ronald Lentz, a Long Beach retiree, says that wealth is being able to do what you want to do. For Lentz, that means literally searching for wealth with a metal detector at various beaches in Southern California. "I go do what I want to do when I get up in the morning. So yeah, I'm wealthy."
Safe and secure
Musician Robert "Robot" Knott says you know you're wealthy when you feel secure. And that goes for money as well as one's sense of self: "You could be insecure with yourself and I would say that's not a wealthy person."
Living happy
"You know you're wealthy when you're happy," says Benjamin Boutros, a student from Sydney, Australia. "If you could choose between having nice things and not having nice things, I would choose to have nice things. But if I've got what I need and I'm happy, I'm happy with that." Pictured: Mariano Meza, left, Boutros, center, and Taylor Maxfield, right.

Season of the Witch
A 14th century Crusader returns to a homeland devastated by the Black Plague. A beleaguered church, deeming sorcery the culprit of the plague, commands the two knights to transport an accused witch to a remote abbey, where monks will perform a ritual in hopes of ending the pestilence. A priest, a grieving knight, a disgraced itinerant and a headstrong youth who can only dream of becoming a knight join a mission troubled by mythically hostile wilderness and fierce contention over the fate of the girl. When the embattled party arrives at the abbey, a horrific discovery jeopardises the knight's pledge to ensure the girl fair treatment, and pits them against an inexplicably powerful and destructive force.

When it comes to a solid marketing strategy, experts always advise that you Start With Why. And it makes perfect sense – starting with Why helps you attract people who share the same values as you, who, as TED speaker Simon Sinek puts it, "don't buy what you do, they buy into why you do it."
Starting with why will improve your swag strategy. If you know why you're investing in it, what you're trying to achieve will be clearer, leading to better ROI, getting your brand into the right people's hands, and creating a more effective result.
So, starting with why, here are some key questions to ask yourself before ordering swag:

We've been trying to keep up Carlin's spaniel training as best we can. Some in our yard, some at a local state park, and some on private land. This last has a pond and some irrigation canals, much to our relief and delight, so we go out there to train (and help train the landowner's dogs) whenever we are invited.
Today we were invited. Fortunately, it was cloudy and cool so we didn't have to worry about Carlin's over-heating. He got in a little bit of steady training (butt to ground whenever the bird or bumper is thrown), but soon he got too smart for us. He figured out really quickly that at least one of us had a bird in hand, so instead of quartering between us looking for birds he knew weren't there, he decided to just sit and wait for somebody to throw something. Darn it! It looked like such a fun drill when we watched an English Springer Spaniel do it yesterday.
Plus he did well on a couple of a couple of water blinds. One was across a shallow pond into the sage brush, and another was across two channels of an irrigation canal with a small island in between them.
Tooey always travels with us, so today we thought we'd give her a few water retrieves, too.
It wasn't deep enough to swim in, but it wasn't shallow enough to run in either. More like lunging water, rather than swimming or running water. She did an okay job, but with Tooey, you never know which dog is going to show up. Today, she was less than pleased with the well-used pheasants. In my defense, I have to say that the pheasants weren't rotten. I'd gutted them, filled the cavities with expanding foam, and froze and thawed them several times. But they had lost a lot of feathers, and there was more skin showing that she (or I, for that matter) prefer.
But she did a very nice blind land retrieve, once she figured out I had a hunk of liver that I was willing to trade for a pheasant to hand.
All in all, it was a delightful morning. (And we hope at least somewhat entertaining for the cows, which you can see in the photo.)

Trumpeter Don Cherry, who died last week at the age of 58, was one of the key figures in the jazz avant-garde and an original member of innovative saxophonist Ornette Coleman's quartet.
Born in Oklahoma City but raised in Los Angeles, Cherry was originally a fan of be-bop and cited Fats Navarro as an early influence. In the mid-'50s, he met Coleman in Los Angeles and began to explore more experimental styles, an exploration that continued throughout his life.
With Coleman's quartet, Cherry traveled to New York, where the group's performances at the Five Spot Cafe in 1958 split modern jazz into two camps--those that saw Coleman and his colleagues as the new direction of jazz, and those that considered the musicians charlatans.
Cherry recorded with Coleman--"Shape of Jazz to Come," "Free Jazz" and more--and then in 1960 made his first album as a leader, "The Avant-Garde," which also featured John Coltrane. He then performed and/or recorded with Sonny Rollins and other leading lights of the avant-garde, particularly saxophonists Albert Ayler, Pharoah Sanders, Steve Lacy and Gato Barbieri. He made several top-notch recordings for Blue Note Records, among them "Complete Communion" and the recently reissued "Symphony for Improvisers."

When Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his interview with Times Now said, "Vyavastha se upar kisi ko bolne ka haq nahi hai…" we all knew that the PM was referring to Subramanian Swamy and his obsession with the social media.
Swamy, who is known for his tirade of caustic I-don't-care tweets, has sent the BJP high command into a tizzy — The Indian Express reported that his tweets are dissolving the support of the bosses in the BJP and questions regarding his comments are being raised within the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). And that his 'fall from grace', as the report puts it, was reflected in the PM's remarks.
Subramanian Swamy's RSS ideology, wrote Outlook, can be traced to Swamy's mother Padmavati Subramanian, who had RSS leanings. Swamy's younger brother who spoke to Outlook said that despite the former's "pure integrity", his lack of tolerance level to different opinions make him a less-successful politician.
But all has not been rosy between the Harvard-educated-economist-turned-politician-turned-rabble-rouser and the Sangh. Even if he has pushed for the cause of the Ayodhya Ram temple or drawing a 'lakshman rekha' to free Indian literature from the Left ideology, he has also been a steady critic of the Hindutva ideology that he seems to propagate.
Writing for the magazine Frontline, Swamy compared the threat of "creeping fascism of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)" to British imperialism. Only, the former is swifter than the latter, he said. He further added that the RSS has already gained generating momentum on religious fundamentalist issues (such as the Ram temple) and raised fanatical emotional issues (such as chasing out Christian missionaries). He closed with,
The RSS is, luckily, our counter-culture. The vibrations of Mother India will, I hope, be its undoing.
After Swamy's recent "the gloves are off" swipes at Arun Jaitley — "People giving me unasked for advice of discipline and restraint don't realize that if I disregard discipline there would be a blood bath" — Narendra Modi proclaimed (in the interview) that "whether it is in my party or not, I think such things are inappropriate. This fondness for publicity is never going to do any good to the nation. People should conduct themselves with utmost responsibility. If anybody considers himself above the system, it is wrong."
If this isn't proof that the BJP is slowly distancing itself from Swamy, then the fact that the latter's Mumbai event (on 26 June), where he was supposed to speak on 41 years of imposition of Emergency by Indira Gandhi, was cancelled at the behest of BJP President Amit Shah, speaks volumes about the same.
The Indian Express also reported that the RSS is supposed to have sent two mediators to Subramanian Swamy to ask him not to make public his differences with other senior or otherwise BJP leaders and to exercise patience. What's more, the RSS also claimed that Swamy's activities could not be linked with them.
Does that mean Swamy is beyond even the prime minister's control? His track record, as pointed out by Sreemoy Talukdar in Firstpost, presents an existential dilemma for the BJP. On the one hand, Swamy dons the role of 'chief needler' with ease, baiting the Nehru-Gandhi family like it's his was second nature. On the other hand, Swamy's propensity for publicity — that apparently seeks him — has proved to be a loose cannon, getting him into trouble with his party leaders and the public alike.
Where does it go from here?

Identify a piece of china by its pattern by first identifying the name of the pattern and the brand of the china. If the china has only the logo of a manufacturer, research the logo online to identify the specific china and order replacements if necessary. Another option is to ask a store or individual to identify the piece of china.
It may be possible to identify newer china sets by turning the item over and searching for both the manufacturer name and the pattern name. This, along with other possible information on the plate such as the country of origin and the date of manufacturer, can help fully identify this china.
Certain pieces of china may not have readily available information. Search the entire set because a logo may be on another piece such as a serving piece or dinner plate. It may be necessary to research the logos of different china manufacturers because many of them have used different logos throughout the years, making identification difficult.
Once a manufacturer has been identified, use websites such as Replacements.com to browse different patterns by manufacturer name and see what matches the china in question. If the above methods do not work, consult with a specialty shop or vendor in order to identify the china.

My son plays football and loves it! Since we are celebrating his 17th birthday, I had to make a football card for him. I found the image of the player doing a Google search. I brought it into the Silhouette software, traced it, them broke it down into the various components; jersey, arms, legs, etc.
I used his team colors and made the jersey number 17 for his birthday.
What's a birthday without cake? Inside the card is a pop-up cake!
Even though this was to be a "guy" card, I still had to add a bit of bling! I glittered up the icing detail for the card. He really liked it! And that's what matters!

Steve Miller was part of the great hippie season of San Francisco, but in reality he was a blues man who played elegant and refined blues-rock. When the acid-rock fashion died, Miller revealed his true mission: writing muzak that was both atmospheric and relaxing.
Raised in Texas, leader of a blues band in Chicago with Barry Goldberg, Miller arrived in San Francisco in 1966 and formed the Steve Miller Blues Band. At his side was singer, rhythm guitarist and childhood friend Boz Scaggs.
The sound of Children Of the Future (Capitol, 1968) is by all means hallucinogenic, but without sacrificing the structure of the song, and best of all, preserving all the aggressive boogie riffs of a well disciplined blues band. The album is stylistically divided in two sides. Side One is relatively traditional, the domain of the impeccable Scaggs, with blues cuts perturbed by solos a la Hendrix, ecstatic choruses and acid keyboard, as in Roll With It and Baby's Callin' Me Home. Side Two is experimental, as the times demanded, a multi-part suite for ecstatic voices, Jim Peterman's church organ and wild guitar. Fantastic melodies are enriched by cosmic overtones, with a spirited country flavor in Children Of The Future. Instrumentals, psychedelic and celestial, are placed in the middle of an epic and symphonic "Pink-Floydian" blues in the seven minute In My First Mind. Short intervals of turbulence and dissonance punctuate The Beauty Of Time, with its mantra-chorus grand finale.
Frequent use of electronic effects weakens the guitars' voice on Sailor (Capitol, 1968), albeit conferring to the music a wilder character. The opening song Song For Our Ancestors features a sustained organ in crescendo, mimicking the rhythm of an air raid siren. Living In The USA and Overdrive are catchy blues rock songs; Dime-a-dance Romance is Scaggs' best ballad.
Your Saving Grace (Capitol, 1969) and Brave New World (Capitol, 1969) are complementary albums. The first is a collection of soft rhythm and blues ballads like Your Saving Grace, Baby' s House, Feel So Glad. The second is a dynamic red-hot album, with a series of insistent blues rockers like Space Cowboy, My Dark Hour and Brave New World. After Scaggs and Peterman's departure the sound became progressively more manneristic and less bluesy.
Number Five (Capitol, 1970) is a roots-rock album, in a year when many were turning to country. More than anything, it is a pretext to span many stylistic fronts, from Going To Mexico, to Going To The Country, to Midnight Tango, always with grace and gentleness.

Ann Arbor, MI — October 14, 2015 — Dr. Joseph Helman received a major award from the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) during the group's recent annual meeting. Helman, who chaired the University of Michigan School of Dentistry's Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Hospital Dentistry for 13 years, received the Presidential Achievement Award during the organization's 97th annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
Helman was recognized for his career-long achievements including clinical, academic, research and public service that have benefitted oral and maxillofacial surgeons and their patients worldwide.
Helman's career began in 1976 when he earned his DMD from the Universidad Nacional De Rosario in Rosario, Argentina. Since then, he has spent the past 40 years actively supporting oral and maxillofacial surgeons' groups locally, nationally and internationally.
Among the notable positions he has held throughout his career include serving as president of the Israel Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (1990-1992); chair of the AAOMS Tumor and Reconstructive Surgery group (1997-2004); vice president of the Detroit Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (2001-2002) and later its president (2002-2003); was a Founding Fellow of the International Academy of Oral Oncology (2005) and also a Founding Fellow of the American Academy of Craniomaxillofacial Surgeons (2013); and has chaired the Research Committee of the International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.
In remarks after receiving the award, Helman expressed his appreciation "for giving me, and others here, the opportunity to improve the quality of life and the length of life of our patients. There is no feeling greater than that," he said.
Thanking His Mentors, U-M
Helman thanked three mentors – Dr. Eduardo Michael in Argentina, where he grew up and sparked his interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery; Prof. David Gutman in Israel when he was a resident; and Dr. Bruce Baum at the National Institutes of Health. "He left an incredible impression on me as a human being as well as a scientist and teacher."
Helman thanked Dr. Stephen Feinberg "for hiring me at the University of Michigan 21 years ago" when he was chair of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in 1994 and for "his strong support and personal friendship." Helman also expressed his appreciation to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery/Hospital Dentistry's colleagues, administrative and support staff, present and former residents, and his peers in oral and maxillofacial surgery societies "all of whom are like family to me." Helman said he wished his late wife, Diana, "was here to receive this award with me." He also thanked his daughters, Sarah, Abigail (Abby), and Michal (Mikky).
Since arriving at U-M in 1994, Helman has been personally involved in international outreach and encouraged others in the department to also get involved. "We are showing how we can make a difference in the lives of people elsewhere," he said in a feature that appeared in the Spring & Summer 2015 issue of the school's alumni magazine, DentalUM.
Making a Difference
Since 1999, Helman has traveled to China extensively including visits to Jiao Tong University in Shanghai, a public research university with more than 36,000 students, where he participated in clinical, educational and scientific collaboration with faculty and students and Nanjing Medical University (NMU) Hospital's Institute of Stomatology where he performed demonstration surgeries for Chinese oral surgeons.
He also began supporting a program for craniofacial and cleft lip and palate surgeries at NMU as well as programs for head and neck cancer reconstructions. For his efforts, he was named an honorary professor at NMU in 2013 and was presented with the Key to the City of Huai'an and received honorary citizenship. He was also named an honorary professor at Jiao Tong University Medical School at the University of Nanjing School of Medicine and Harbin Medical University.
American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) is the professional organization that represents more than 9,000 oral and maxillofacial surgeons in the U.S.

A little over halfway through the forenoon watch on 11 June 1942, the American tanker Hagan was steaming off the northern coast of Cuba, bound for Havana with a cargo of blackstrap molasses. The unescorted vessel steering an undeviating course proved too good a target for Korvettenkapitän Wolf Henne, commanding officer of U-157 , to leave unmolested. After two of the submarine's torpedoes hit home, the Hagan quickly plunged to the bottom, taking 6 of her 44 crew members with her. Word of the sinking drew a quick U.S. response. Army Air Forces B-18 bombers set out in search of the U-boat and were soon joined by ships that included the Coast Guard cutters Thetis and Triton , three submarine chasers, and an odd-looking vessel assigned to the East Coast Sound School at Key West, Florida—the Eagle 27 (PE-27), with 46-year-old Naval Reserve Lieutenant Commander Harold C. Speed in command.

Tales from the Borderlands Casts Four V.O. Heavyweights
Tales from the Borderlands, Telltale Games' episodic point-and-click adventure game based on the Borderlands series, is looking to combine two geeky favorites into one. Merging the quirky, violent world of Gearboox's Borderlands with the unique gameplay style perfected by Telltale gives the upcoming title a decent amount of geek legitimacy before it even comes out. Today, Telltale has added even more geek cred to the dialogue-heavy game by revealing the first casting details.
Chris Hardwick, Sam Witwer, Nolan North, Patrick Warburton are confirmed to join the cast of Tales from the Borderlands, bringing legitimate star power and a ton of experience in the genre. Chris Hardwick started out as a stand-up comedian, but now hosts a pair of television shows and runs Nerdist Industries, the leading podcast network dedicated to geek interests. He is also a veteran voice actor, providing voices for 'The Legend of Korra,' 'The Batman' and other animated projects.
Sam Witwer provided the voice and physical model for Starkiller, protagonist of the Force Unleashed games, and played Doomsday on the TV show 'Smallville.' Nolan North is one of the most well-known and prolific voice actors in the gaming industry, having worked on over 140 games and dozens of animated features and shows. Finally, Patrick Warburton, best known as David Puddy from 'Seinfeld' and Brock Sampson from 'The Venture Bros.,' has added his unmistakable voice to nearly 20 games, including titles as diverse as Tak, League of Legends and Skylanders.
No roles have been associated with any of the actors, but it's about as strong a cast as anyone could have hoped for. Both Telltales' graphic adventure games and the Borderlands rely heavily on the performances of their characters, and four heavyweights like these should make Tales from the Borderlands a real treat to hear when it arrives sometime this year.

As we reach the end of the current year, our eyes turn to the New Year and contemplate what it might bring. DiscoverOrg recently pulled together a panel of three innovative CEOs to discuss data-driven marketing and its impacts on the sales process. Our own CEO, Henry Schuck, was joined by two others, Craig Harris of HG Data and Nadim Hossain of BrightFunnel. Below are some of the most important developments they anticipate in 2015.
The Rise of Predictive Analytics
Nadim Hossain of Bright Funnel anticipates that lead scoring- the science of "What are your best bets?" -will give way to models that can deliver even more intelligence to the sales process. Lead scoring currently tracks activity between a prospect and an organization and tries to predict – at the very first stage – what is going to turn into an opportunity. Hossain notes that in the future these analytics will go much further, "looking at the whole funnel to understand how things are going to move from stage to stage all the way to revenue – really predicting the pipeline and the revenue in a way that marketers can actually react. The future of predictive analytics in marketing is not just predictive, but really being prescriptive."
Many predictive analytics tools are currently being developed that will be available both as stand-alone and integrations into popular CRM platforms. Henry Schuck of DiscoverOrg points out, "Salesforce recently bought RelateIQ, which was basically a CRM that was built around analytics. I think that they're realizing salespeople want to be able to see which prospects convert best and how that translates to other prospects who might follow the same pattern." The tools are designed to help salespeople map out those high-likelihood prospects and use that template to identify more high-likelihood prospects. The process of identifying the best prospects will require less guesswork and sales efforts will be more effective as analytical tools become more widely available.
Craig Harris of HG Data anticipates "more and more toolsets that enable large and even small companies to build these predictive models themselves. This is a very exciting time for sales and predictive analytics."
Shift in the Marketing Role
This year, we have seen an even more dramatic shift in the marketing department's increased role in both sales and IT processes. The primary driver behind the change is the data-driven nature of sales and marketing today, pushing marketing to be more technical and analytical in nature.
To this point, Nadim Hossain said, "Business-to-business marketers are ultimately going to be much more data-driven than even business-to-consumer. What has happened in the last five years or so is that marketing automation platforms have matured. With this basic foundation of tools in place, B2B marketers can take it to the next level, integrating new advanced tools. The time for data-driven sales and marketing is here."
What this shift brings us to is an evolution of what the marketing department even looks like, who is hired and what they do. Henry Schuck says, "Marketing is becoming more of a technical position than it is an artistic or creative position. I think a technical background is critically important and will continue to become even more important. Marketers are coming from math and engineering backgrounds now."
Hossain adds, "What you're seeing is the rise of Marketing Operations. A trend I am seeing is that some companies are even combining sales and marketing operations, with the marketing operations team responsible for forecasting and prediction. Some companies are calling this team a revenue operations team, or revenue marketing."
The Importance of Integrated Toolsets
One issue that organizations have been facing (that is possibly going to get worse before it gets better) is being able to compile intelligent data and effectively apply analytics to produce usable intelligence about sales and prospects.
It is essential to choose tools that not only integrate between the systems used by sales and marketing teams, but also that fuel intelligent conversations with prospects. Henry Shuck points out, "Complete data in a well-integrated system will go beyond low-value commodity lead information (name, main business phone, email). Predictive analytics applied to your data will put you in front of your highest value prospects with the right solution at the right time." CRM systems populated with complete prospect data that includes sales scoops, events, insights and context (job functions, reporting structures, spending initiatives, online behavior) enables your sales people to be more effective in their prospecting efforts and more able to cut through the noise.
Harris points out, "Of course data-driven marketing is not a panacea. If not done right, it will create more problems than it solves. If you go down the data-driven marketing path, you need to make a long-term commitment to it: you need to hire the right talent; you need to populate the system with good data; and you need to understand how to measure efforts. Don't get scared when you have your first couple of hiccups. We are at the forefront right now, and those that are really investing in data-driven marketing are the early adopters and you are helping to figure it out for the rest of them."
Work Smarter, Not Harder in 2015
The amount of information available to sales and marketing teams this year (and even more so in 2015) is overwhelming. However, aligning the expertise of your marketing team to the technology available and integrating the information collected across platforms will set your organization up for success… and ahead of the curve in terms of adoption of such practices.
Hossain summed it up well: By implementing these systems to tame the data and get the most out of your efforts, "you're getting the best leads, but also throughout the funnel you are shortening sales cycles, accelerating the velocity and increasing the deal size."
