Nathan won 3rd prize in the school science fair. He received a trophy, certificate, ribbon and a $50.00 savings bond! Here is video of him receiving his award at school.

This is the first part with the science teacher explaining the award and the principal standing by ready to hand out the awards.
This is the second half taken after the students who received honorable mention were announced. This part begins with the introduction of the two students who tied for 5th place.

Emma Butt and her friend Luna Rival work as a team to milk this cock in a CFNM-Scene.
Official Description:
Emma is getting ready to go out to a posh dinner but her husband Jake walks in totally disorientated. His clothes are done up wrong and he can't talk properly. She realizes it is because men can't function unless they get a regular milking. She calls in young maid Luna and instructs her to undress him. The teen girl is shocked when his cock pops out and even more surprised when she is told to suck it! The two women then wank and suck him until he shoots a big load, touching each other as they do it!

The Apalachee High School football team played perhaps its best game of 2011 but fell to visiting Clarke Central 37-28 at R. Harold Harrison Stadium Friday night.
The Wildcats (2-5 overall and in Region 8-AAAA) led 22-19 at halftime but could not find the answer to stop the Gladiator offense in the second half. The loss all but ends Apalachee's playoff chances for the season.
See Wednesday's print edition for a complete recap and preview of the upcoming homecoming game against Cedar Shoals.

Bill ripping ears off the werewolves was rather gruesome and it felt rather absurd when this fox-hunting-aristocrat-looking rider on a white horse, came riding in. Introducing the King of Mississippi one of the many new characters introduced this episode. The king treats the werewolves as hounds, heal Cooter! Nice name for a biker werewolf (His name is Coot, video interview below), guess he got into a lot of fights as a kid. The king is a ruthless creepy guy but quite entertaining, more so than the Queen.
You remember Tara popping some pills in that locked bathroom and Lafayette walked in on her useless no good mama who left her unsupervised. Lafayette breaks the door down and saves Tara while showing some beautiful righteous anger at her mother who when she sees what Tara has done tells her, you can go to hell for this! Oh man, it is only concern for Tara that keeps him from beating her to pulp right there.
Meanwhile Sookie questions Eric about Operation Werewolf and shows him the sign they found on the dead driver. Jessica is such a hoot, Nazi werewolves? Like that never could exist (but they do). For being a century old vampire Eric is not good at lying to Sookie when he tells he doesn't know anything about it. There is a video below with background on Operation Werewolf. In the awkward moment that follows Pam tells Jessica, Let's go to the Ladies room and stare at ourselves in the mirror. They are secretive, vicious and territorial, Eric tells Sookie. That sounds familiar she replies. After that follows a entertaining way of saying I care for you by Eric Northman.
Oh I almost forgot the Ladies room, Jessica asking Pam for vampire advise was one of my highlights this episode. Listen to the heart beat (young grasshopper). But how do you stop? I think of children with soggy dippers, and also maggots.
While Eric advises Sookie on were community. Sookie starts to cry and Eric complain to her, Please don't do that. It makes me feel disturbingly human.
After Sookie leaves Eric flash back to Augsburg, Germany 1945 when he and Godrick first learned about Operation Werewolf. Who was the vampire leading Operation Werewolf?
Well, the scene shifts over to the King riding his white horse with Bill clinging to his back. Are all vampire royalty gay? Talbot the kings lover meets them with a "you are late" as they arrive in the kings southern mansion. Talbot describes with joyful pride how he redecorated the guest room with a bed that used to belong to a serial killer, creepy. Bill is to be their guest until he hears the offer the King is about to make. After leaving Bill behind silver doors the king and Talbot walks away. I think I have to bring him the girl, the king tells Talbot.
Jessica has a very emotional and sad fallout with Hoyt but she can't let him in because of the corpse in the basement. Then she has to lie down beside that stinking corpse herself.
Sookie on the other hand is surprised in the dark when she gets home, but not as surprised as Jason when she hits him on the family jewels. While they clean up Sookie tells him about the werewolves and he makes some crack-wise jokes about santa and the snowman. Jason offer to talk to Andy about it and they end up talking about Eggs. Sookie feel bad about helping him remember and Jason because he killed him. But Jason doesn't tell Sookie that.
Time to switch over to Sam. Who gets poked awake with a shotgun by his little brother Tommy. The family reunion is slightly creepy but emotional. Tommy seems resentful even when they run together. Was he planing to have Sam run over by a truck, somehow I don't think so as Sam throws himself to safety.
As Sookie arrives at the bar the following morning she hear the thoughts of a werewolf laying in wait but Terry's arrival interrupt them. They have some tracking moments there in the wood as they search the place the guy disappeared from. Biker boots and wolf tracks, check. Terry gives her a gun to protect her; do you know how to use one of these? I am not that blond she replies as she professionally checks it and put it in the small of her back.
Tara doesn't want to go to the hospital so Lafayette brings her to see his mother at the Meadowglade clinic. This is where all his income has been going. Ruby's caretaker Jesus is a hunk; both Tara and Lafajette ogle eye him. I think Lafayette is going to be back at the clinic soon again to see if he can get himself some. Well its been long enough.
Baby-vamp Jessica is the comic relief this episode too as she goes about dealing with a smelly corpse. Better to buy a chain-saw than renting one if you are going to make this a habit.
The food and drinking habits of the vampire kings is really something. Bill is dining in style, cooled carbonated blood willfully given, ate only tangerines for weeks Talbot explains. The king wants to make Bill sheriff of Mississippi two if he helps him marry the queen.
Andy gets celebrated as a hero for killing a serial killer (Egg). Jason has problems with it especially at the bar but they end up drinking themselves more stupid.
While Jessica is fetching that chain-saw, Mr cowboy boots visits the Campton residence and rummage through Bills things finding lots of research on Sookie in a hidden compartment. If you read the books you know why, I wonder if its going to play out the same way here?
Meanwhile Sokie is sitting in the dark pistol in her hand waiting on the werewolf when she gets an unexpected unexpected visitor. Eric is at the door asking to be let in so he can protect her. He tells her about Operation Werewolf. Hearing Godrick and Eric speaking Swedish in German SS uniforms as we learn that there was a vampire behind it was fun. They were hunting the Nazi werewolves. There is more to it than that though, they existed long before the Nazi party.
We switch back to Bill and the King and their delightful macabre dinner. The king is definitely on to something on Bill being sent to Bon Temps by the queen, wonder how Sookie is going to take that? Maybe with some passionate sex with Mr Northman? When Bill refuses to play ball the silk gloves come off.
Arlene is freaked out by being pregnant and takes it out on Terry. He has a heart to heart with her, ten reasons she could trust him with her kids. He continues to recite it outside the bathroom door as she rushes back in to vomit. I am starting to like Arlene again, she was such a bitch before. I even suspected her of being a shifter as she had the hots for Sam. Terry and she should be a good fit.
Lafayette brings Tara to work where she meets Mr cowboy boots, he is a vampire too and no friend of Bill either.
Now when the end is near the scene changes comes quicker.
Jessica finds the basement empty as she comes home with the chainsaw. Fuck, Fuck, she says. Wonder who took care of that? Mr Boots or Pam?
Andy drives Jason home when he gets a call to bring down a meth lab. They introduce Calvin Noris whose place it is and Jason sees a blond beauty in the woods and she runs away as Jason spots a runner. He tackle him and bring him down happy as a rooster he holds up a bag with meth. I got me a drug dealer. Guess Jason found a cure for his shot in the head disability and the lack of attention.
Tara sit outside the bar drinking bourbon by herself when some loud rednecks starts to make degrading comments about race where Egg was killed. When one of them starts to pee on the place it boils over for her and she attacks the two men and floors one with a beautiful swing. Before they can retaliate Mr Cowboy boots saves her. He gets off at her banking the crap out of the one standing. You are good at picking your men Tara.
Bill is hard pressed when the king threatens Sookie. Then Lorena Bill's maker walks in smug as always. Bill quickly throws a lamp at her and the last we see is her burning, flailing body.
Eric recites mock poetry and Sookie has just started to tell him off when he grabs her and say invite me in and she does. As the episode close we see the wolf inside leap; we see Eric leap and we see Sookie firing her gun.
Wow, that was quite an episode. So first we got closure and the basic plot in episode one; and now we got introduced to most of the new characters Coot, the King, Talbot, Sams family, Jesus, Ruby, Mr Boots, Noris and Girl in the wood. That is not the entire new cast but most. I expect a certain werewolf and his girlfriend to show up in the next episode or so.
Videos are below.

Consequences of Excessive Antibiotic Use
"Antibiotics have saved many lives over the past 45 years. We are truly fortunate to have them available for serious bacterial infections. Unfortunately, antibiotics are excessively prescribed, especially to children. The Center for Disease Control estimates that of the 235 million doses of antibiotics given each year, between 20 and 50 percent are unnecessary."
Points to Consider
Here are some points to consider, when considering using antibiotics.
Note: This article was excerpted and adapted from "The Consequences of Excessive Antibiotic Use," by Jane Sheppard.

8th July 2013
The Royal Air Force Association has received a £50 donation from local insurance company Hastings Direct's community programme — A Helping Hand to help stage its annual charity concert at the De La Warr Pavilion on Sunday July 14th.
The concert, which starts at 7.30p.m., will raise money for the RAFA's Wings Appeal which supports ex-service members of the RAF and their dependants.
Hastings Direct's A Helping Hand makes financial, professional and physical support available to the local community. Each month Hastings is able to offer either professional support from its 1,500+ staff, or physical support with team building days. In addition, Hastings has made a small monthly grant available to support local funding.
This year's concert will be performed by a rare combination of two ensembles from the RAF Central Band. An eighteen piece Big Band the "Red, White & Blues" will join-up the six piece string "Salon Orchestra" to play a programme of old and new favourites with a star appearance from Molly Walsh.
Sgt Chris Quinn leads the Red White & Blues in playing a wide repertoire of music ranging from the ever popular swing and dance sounds of Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman and Stan Kenton through to arrangements of the popular music of today. Chief Technician Barry Stringer has been associated with the Salon Orchestra since he joined the RAF in 1986. The orchestra can trace its roots back to 1937 as part of the RAF Symphony Orchestra. The orchestra is in great demand and regularly performs at prestigious receptions, luncheons and dinners where a touch of pageantry is appropriate.

New Mexico had 0.5 percent of commuters' bike to work, the U.S. Census Bureau reported today in a new brief focused on biking and walking to work. Nationally, 0.6 percent of workers commute by bike.
"Through efforts to increase local transportation options many U.S. cities, have contributed to the increase the number of people who bike to work," said Brian McKenzie a Census Bureau sociologist who studies commuting. "This information shapes our understanding of how people get to work, and how this may change across cities in the coming years."
The American Community Survey also provides annual estimates about how commuters in New Mexico travel to work and how long it takes them to get there.
Transportation Highlights for New Mexico
** Among the 865,474 workers in New Mexico, 1.1 percent took public transportation, 0.5 percent biked, 2.3 percent walked and 4.5 percent worked at home. One or more of these estimates may not be statistically different from one another.
** When reviewing the number of workers biking to work in New Mexico metro areas, Albuquerque Metro had the greatest amount estimated at 3,744 followed by Las Cruces Metro Area with 765, Santa Fe Metro Area 588, and Farmington Metro Area at 94.
** Of workers who did not work from home, the average travel time to work was 21.4 minutes in New Mexico.
Traveling by car, truck or van was among the most common commute modes.
View more at New Mexico commuting statistics.
About the American Community Survey
The figures in this release come from data collected from questions in the Census Bureau's 2008-2012 American Community Survey. The questions asked include:
** How did this person usually get to work last week? If this person usually used more than one method of transportation during the trip, mark (X) the box of the one used for most of the distance.
** How many people, including this person, usually rode to work in the car, truck, or van last week?
** What time did this person usually leave home to go to work last week?
** How many minutes did it usually take this person to get from home to work last week?
Organizations use the statistics from this question to design programs that ease traffic problems, reduce congestion and promote carpooling. In addition, police and fire departments use the statistics to plan for emergency services in areas where many people work. The American Community Survey provides local statistics on a variety of topics for even the smallest communities.
Ever since Thomas Jefferson directed the first census in 1790, the census has collected detailed characteristics about our nation's people. Questions about jobs and the economy were added 20 years later under James Madison, who said such information would allow Congress to "adapt the public measures to the particular circumstances of the community," and over the decades allow America "an opportunity of marking the progress of the society."
The Bureau of Business & Economic Research Data Bank is interested in helping parties navigate the Census or other data websites and assist in understanding the different data sources. For more information, call (505) 277-3038 or email, firstname.lastname@example.com.

The answer above is correct, in that chmod -R 755 will set this as permissions to all files and folders in the tree. BUT WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU WANT TO? it might make sense for the directories, but why set the execute bit on all the files?
i suspect what you really want to do is set the directories to 755 and either leave the files alone or set them to 644 for this you can use the find command e.g.

What if our beta cells, the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin, could be instructed to multiply so they could produce more insulin when we needed it? That's what happens when women are pregnant and need more insulin because of their increased weight.
Harvard scientists think they may have discovered how to get this to happen. They've discovered a hormone, which they call betatrophin, that seems to produce beta cells at up to 30 times the normal rate. Although, like insulin, the hormone would have to be taken by injection, the injections would be much less frequent than standard insulin injections, maybe once a week, once a month, or even once a year, according to the researchers, because it's stimulating an increase in beta cell mass.
The research was done in mice, and we all know that mice have been cured of diabetes hundreds of times. As Doug Melton, codirector of Harvard's Stem Cell Institute and one of the researchers involved with this study said, "Of course, we're not interested in curing mice." But they've shown that humans have a betatrophin gene, which Melton says is almost identical to the mouse gene, and the hormone betatrophin is present in human plasma. They don't yet know if pregnant women produce more betatrophin, but they're looking into that possibility.
Although the idea is aimed primarily at type 2 diabetes, it might also help with type 1 diabetes. The problem in the latter disease is that the body's own immune system is attacking the beta cells, so even when they multiply, they're inactivated by the autoimmune response. So giving someone in the early stages of type 1 diabetes the hormone would have to be accompanied with giving them an immune-suppressing drug.
One problem with anything that makes cells multiply faster is that multiplying faster is what cancer cells do. Could betatrophin induce signals that caused beta cells to multiply and keep multiplying even without the new hormone? That doesn't happen in pregnancy. After the baby is born, the increased beta cell mass begins to regress and reverts to its prepregancy size. But another name for the betatrophin protein is TD26, a hepatocellular carcinoma-associated protein.
Presumably the oft-suggested "further study" would address this problem. Melton estimates that human trials of betatrophin won't begin for three to five years.
Another problem is that people with type 2 often produce more insulin than normal but can't use it effectively because of insulin resistance. The best cure for type 2 is to reduce insulin resistance rather than producing more insulin (as occurs with the sulfonylurea drugs) or injecting it. However, the sulfonylurea drugs make the beta cells produce more insulin even in the absence of high glucose levels, and this can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Injected insulin can do the same.
So it would be better to have more beta cells that only produced insulin when you needed it. Another advantage of insulin you produce yourself is that it goes right to the liver, which removes a lot of it, so insulin levels in the liver are high and stop the liver from pouring out glucose, but not in the periphery. Injected insulin results in high insulin levels in the periphery and lower levels in the liver, which doesn't match normal physiology.
However, people with type 2 diabetes usually have not only insulin resistance but also leptin resistance as well as resistance to one of the incretin hormones, GIP. Will it turn out that they have betatrophin resistance too?
Hence there are many unanswered questions about this new hormone. It may turn out to be the most exciting discovery since the isolation of insulin. Or it may turn out not to fulfill its promise, as happened with leptin, which was supposed to be the answer to obesity.
But I think this research is a good example of how a lot of medical research occurs. Academic researchers, usually supported by federal research grants, do the basic research. They're not specifically looking for drugs. They're trying to figure out how things work.
Once you know how things work, then you can try to find a drug that will affect that process, and the drug development is usually undertaken by the drug companies, who have the money to fund the huge clinical trials that are needed to get FDA approval of new drugs.
In this case, the researchers are working with Evotech, a German biotech company, and Janssen Pharmaceuticals, a Johnson & Johnson company. This means that the tax dollars that initially supported the basic academic research will ultimately benefit the drug companies, as well as patients, if they can develop a drug that will stimulate the production of this hormone or produce betatrophin in amounts sufficient to be injected in many patients. Whether this is right or wrong depends on your political views.
Melton has a personal reason to want to find a cure for diabetes: his two children both have type 1. And he hasn't lost the sense of excitement that occurs when you figure something out in science. When he first saw the results that indicated that the beta cells were multiplying, he wrote to Peng Yi, a graduate student who worked on the research with him, ""Dear Peng, I can hardly sleep I am so excited by your result. It's a tribute to your hard work and hard thinking. Can't wait to see the data from the repeat. Doug."
Let's hope that budgetary constraints don't cut off the federal research funds that are so essential for good research like this. We do need Big Pharma to manufacture the drugs we need. But we need academic researchers to figure out the basics first.

Just when you thought PAX couldn't get any more awesome at PAX South this year a whole new event was announced focusing on the tabletop aspect of gaming. Put on by Penny Arcade and ReedPOP, PAX Unplugged will debut November 17 – 19, 2017 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
PAX Unplugged will still have the feel and experience familiar of any PAX event with the core difference being the focus on table top games. This will allow developers and designers of our favorite board, card, and roleplaying games to get some extra spotlight and show off what's coming our way next. With panels, demos, tournaments, concerts and events this will be the ultimate experience for those game enthusiasts who like to unplug and play face to face.
With the recent resurgence in popularity of tabletop gaming, now appears to have been better than ever to move in this direction. Penny Arcade Co-founder Jerry Hopkins provided some insight, and reassurances about the new event, "With the rise of popularity of board games, we wanted to provide a dedicated space where fans can come together. We will continue to have tabletop games at every PAX, but Unplugged will focus on stepping away from the TV, monitor and phone to foster face-to-face multiplayer experiences."
I know I absolutely look forward to this new event, a chance to check out the growing and changing landscape of tabletop gaming. Having been a tabletop roleplayer for nearly two decades now, I can say this is refreshing to see!
Badges will go on sale in the spring, so start planning now friends. May your draws be good, pencils be sharp, and 20s be natural.
For more information, visit the PAX Unplugged site or follow PAX for updates via Twitter.

Texas A&M officials issued a "Code Maroon" warning to the nearly empty College Station campus in connection with an incident in which two law-enforcement officers were shot.
An "active shooter" in the 200 block of Fidelity near campus caused the warning, and the school warned students to avoid the area or stay inside if they lived near there.
By 12:44 p.m., the school reported the shooter was in custody, although further details were unavailable.
The Bryan-College Station Eagle reports two officers were wounded in the shooting and the suspect then barricaded himself in a house.

The outdoor season starts around mid April and ends mid September. During that time we play some 40 to 50 matches against other clubs usually on Saturdays, Sundays and Wednesdays. In these games bowlers of all abilities are invited to take part. Bowls being a social game it is important to mention most matches are followed by a light meal and if you wish, a soft or alcoholic drink from the well stocked bar.
Most afternoons and evenings in the week there is social bowling, called roll ups, when the game is simply played for fun and is a great time to practice and hopefully improve play.
We also play a number of competitions within the club open to members; all can enter and provide much entertainment most evenings. Members may also enter all the County and National Competitions.
"It's a young person's game that old people can play"
Gone are the days when the game was perceived as a game for the old; persons of all ages do play successfully and thoroughly enjoy.
If you are thinking you would like to come into the game you may appreciate to know that we are very liberal with our dress code; the ladies wear a blue cardigan over white, with grey or white skirts or trousers and the men wear club coloured shirts with grey or white trousers for matches and competitions.
Flat soled shoes are a must and second hand bowls can be purchased within the club.
Our playing surface is professionally maintained and is arguably the finest in Oxfordshire. In summer the club is open for play every weekday from 12 noon and from 10am on Saturday and Sunday.
There is a winter short mat bowls programme within the clubhouse open on Wednesday and Friday evenings. This attracts many members to the club for a game and a drink.
Social facilities are excellent; our clubhouse is unique and boasts a good-sized kitchen and a superb L-shaped bar.
We have vacancies for both experienced bowlers and beginners.

Real Name: Terry McGinnis
First Appearance: Batman Beyond Ep.1 (January, 1999)
Group Affiliation: Justice League
Gaming Credentials: Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (2000); DC Universe Online (TBA/2010)
Infinite Wars Ranking: DNR
I have to admit -- I'm coming at this entry somewhat ignorant in contrast to the usual HOTW.
While I could certainly appreciate the atmospheric noir and embellished comic book influences that gave us the 1992 Batman animated series, I was never so dedicated to the show that I would follow along to it's subsequent extentions. Continuations of this animated universe in Superman and the Justice League were certainly something I took a look at, but in the detached possible-future of Batman Beyond, I saw a pubescent vision of Batman that just didn't meet my interests at the time. The more I investigate, the more I realise I might've been a little hasty in my judgments.
The animated world that spun out of the original series -- dubbed by many the "Timmverse" for writer/producer Bruce Timm -- has done a lot of good for the promotion of DC comics and their characters. There's an associative assumption that Marvel characters are somehow more instantly relatable than DC's caped originals. This common misconception no doubt owes a lot to Marvel's steadfast maintenance of characters like Spider-man -- who has remained present in animation and film starting with the famous animated series. While DC have certainly had their television successes, it was this "Timmverse" that helped shake certain assumptions that came from varied interpretations of the characters, allowing for a reestablished modern persona that has inducted a generation of new fans.
For me, a reader of comics for most of my life, this success of the Timmverse has been a mixed blessing. While it's certainly done great things for the comics, not just in terms of exposure, but as an influence that steered the Batman franchise through the late nineties to it's own surpassing successes of the animated series, the cartoons have also had their drawbacks. Most frustrating is the eventuating ignorance of the source material which comes from many fans failing to follow their favourite characters to their home in the four-colour comic book format. A barrier that I would have to admit goes two ways -- adding to my resistance to indulge the Batman Beyond cartoon.
Beyond features a Bruce Wayne in his decline -- aged to a point where he can no longer patrol the futuristic streets and skyscraping rooftops of Gotham City as the Batman. Terry McGinnis is the teenage pupil in which he finds a successor, unaware of the conspiracy that brought him to his attention. I'm told it was revealed late in the character's life that Terry McGinnis' adoption of the Batman mantle was no mistake, originally contrived by long standing DCU manipulator, Amanda Waller.
Fortunately, as Batman Beyond joins the comic book world that inspired him, this is information you don't really need to know. Which brings us to the reason for this week's HOTW spotlight!
The Batman of this possible-future has appeared in various DC Universe cameos, most recently joining the ranks of canonized legitimacy brought about by DC's fifty-two universes introduced in the series, 52. The elaboration of this in comic book form has had to wait several years, but in the recent Superman/Batman Annual #4 [pictured above], we got our first taste of the upcoming mini-series that will continue the adventures of McGinnis as the hi-tech futuristic Batman. And I liked it!
The annual features a story very generous to the intimidated and stubborn alike, following up on storylines from the final episode (actually part of Justice League Unlimited) that boast Superman in his Beyond form, with the evil Lex Luthor still intact to cause trouble. This leads into a six issue mini-series that will test the waters for more projects with the character, coming up this month in the form of Batman Beyond #1. You can find more information about that at DCcomics.com!
I wouldn't say I'm a complete convert, but I'm certainly reassessing what entertainment might lie in the world of the cartoons, which still seems to demand teen indulgence in things that aren't quite as serious as all that. The animated film Return of the Joker (which has a video game counterpart) certainly reveals more avenues of interest to the traditional fan, however, which is for me an example of the true spirit of comic book pulp fiction. There's always time to follow a thread, new or old, to discover something exciting along the way. I've written about this philosophy before, and I'm pleased to be an example of putting it into practise.

Hello readers!
Today Brad, Shane, and Myself met together to begin pre-production for our latest project, JCPD. That's all I will say about the project itself for now. But we've started a basic scene outline, I'll post a censored pic when I can find dad's camera. But as far as brainstorming down we made a good deal of progress, and I have about an hour and a half of audio from the event. Can you hear it? NOT YET! But once the project has been filmed and is in post-production, you'll find the audio from our pre-production meetings as a podcast series on itunes (I have to figure out how to do that first).
But be patient, and you'll see how this project came to be.
Yours until later,
Kevin Cole

text: DigitalFacebook tests button that lets page owners skip complicated ad dashboard, promote content directly from their pagesBy Brittany Darwell|April 27, 2012 ShareBy Brittany Darwell|April 27, 2012 ShareFacebook will test a new "promote" button that makes it easier for pages to create Sponsored Stories directly from their posts, a company spokesperson tells us. The button will appear from the page publisher — the box from which page owners create posts — and on posts that have already gone live. The feature is aimed at small- to mid-sized businesses that are using Facebook for marketing, but don't necessarily have the resources to work with a Facebook ad rep or third-party partner. The social network's ad dashboard has become increasingly complicated with untraditional ad types like Sponsored Stories and page post ads, but the promote button could make ad creation much simpler.The promote button will let page owners pay to give their content additional exposure to their fans. If fans interact with the content, their friends might see that activity as a Sponsored Story, but there is not currently a way for page owners to create an ad targeting non-fans using the promote button. They will have to use the self-serve ad dashboard or the Ads API to do that."Right now this is a very small test but we will continue to iterate on the feature based on feedback," a spokesperson says.Facebook has been gradually encouraging page owners to pay for distribution of their content, even among fans they formerly thought they could reach for free. As it turns out, the average page post only reaches 16 percent of fans, the company revealed in February. This is the result of users connecting to more people and pages, all of whom are generating more stories than ever before. Most people wouldn't enjoy seeing every bit of their connections' activity in News Feed, so Facebook uses EdgeRank to filter some stories out and highlight the ones that seem most relevant to each user.Last year the social network introduced a new type of ad that turned page posts into Sponsored Stories. That was the first time the company began to encourage businesses to spend money on engaging existing fans, in addition to running campaigns to acquire new ones. Then at the Facebook Marketing Conference earlier this year, the company revealed Reach Generator, a premium advertising solution to help large brands reach their fans through Sponsored Stories within the mobile and desktop feeds, as well as through sidebar ads. The promote button is a simple way to foster the same strategy among smaller businesses. Sharehttp://adweek.it/2jIHQnn copy Adweek Adweek

The Evolution of Coupons
Coupons have been a popular marketing tool ever since Coca-Cola introduced the first coupon in 1887. Today, couponing is a way of life for many shoppers, helping them save thousands of dollars each year. Now you can use a coupon to save on everything from groceries to hair cuts to oil changes.
That very first coupon was the idea of Asa Candler, an Atlanta businessman. Candler's idea was to offer a coupon for a free Coca-Cola, which he had begun marketing after purchasing the Coca-Cola formula from its inventor. By 1913, 8.5 million free drinks had been enjoyed by Americans. The promotion was so popular that it helped the company push the product into every state in the country.
Coca-Cola distributed its "free Coca-Cola" coupon by mailing them to potential customers and placing them in magazines. Rather than asking stores to mail in the coupon after it had been claimed, the company gave free syrup to stores in advance to cover the free drinks.
Another boost for couponing came in the Great Depression. Manufacturers offered discounts for cereal and food items to help boost sales and get products into the hands of the customers that needed them. Post Cereals distributed savings offers in an effort to increase sales, which further increased the popularity of the coupon.
In 1940, grocery stores started offering printed store discounts to attract customers. The money these stores lost through discounted prices was made up for by the new business they took away from the competition.
Nielsen Coupon Clearing House was created in 1957. Its sole purpose was coupon redemption to help stores get their money back and make it easier for consumers and stores to use these valuable pieces of paper.
The recession in the late 2000s also saw a boost in coupon use, with 75.8 percent of American consumers using coupons for purchases in 2008. Although the recession is over, coupon use is actually higher now than it was then, with nearly 80 percent of consumers using coupons.
Today, consumers can find a coupon for nearly everything. Grocery stores remain a popular venue for couponing, but you can also find discounts for hair cuts, clothing, car repairs, pet supplies, and just about anything else. Using coupon books and catalogs received in the mail remains popular, but manufacturers and stores also offer printable coupons that customers can print at home to take to the store with them. Digital offers via email and text message are also becoming popular as the growth of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets increases.[cf]skyword_tracking_tag[/cf]
