Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook (NYSE:FB) is becoming cozier with advertisers, unveiling a slew of changes and updates over the last two months in an effort to help brands better reach key demographics and boost clicks.
Continue Reading Below
The heightened focus on ad revenue, which jumped 28% last quarter but grew at a slower pace than the prior period, has caused ads to creep onto News Feeds, promotional ads to reach completely new audiences and mobile ads to double in size.
However, that's not to say the Facebook ship is steering off course.
Zuckerberg has long been against intrusive ads affecting the user experience, but experts say it is a necessary step for the maturing company as big advertisers strain to find tangible benefits from Facebook ads.
"While Zuckerberg is obsessed with user experience, some brands to their utter detriment aren't," said Jan Rezab, CEO of social media analytics company Socialbakers.
As sponsored and promotional stories become more prevalent and seem to be showing up more frequently, higher up on the page and right in the middle of mobile News Feeds, analysts seem bullish that they will help rejuvenate sales.
"While Zuckerberg is obsessed with user experience, some brands to their utter detriment aren't."
"The hoopla around Facebook's stock price and mobile strategy is a lot of noise," said Dachis Group CEO Jeff Dachis. "I think Facebook is going to figure out how to monetize engagement in a thoughtful way because Zuckerberg has always been mindful of the user."
Sponsored stories have been around since 2011 but have recently started becoming a part of the News Feed, prominent real estate on Facebook that is eyeballed by millions of people daily.
In June, a month after the company started trading publicly on Nasdaq OMX Group's (NASDAQ:NDAQ) Nasdaq Stock Market and questions began surfacing about its ability to monetize mobile and increase ad sales, Facebook started offering advertisers a cheaper option to only display sponsored stories on mobile devices, an effort to help them reach the growing number of people accessing the site on their smartphones.
Then last week, BTIG analyst Richard Greenfield said Facebook's sponsored stories on the mobile platform seem to be getting bigger. In a report, he posted a screen shot of an AT&T (NYSE:T) ad that took up about 1.5 lengths on an Apple (NASDSAQ:AAPL) iPhone 4S screen, meaning he had to scroll lower just to access his feed.
While that's far from the so-called "screen takeovers" similar to those on Pandora (NYSE:P) that big advertisers like General Motors (NYSE:GM) had been pressuring Facebook to adopt, they are a step in the right direction, he said.
"While larger/more prominent ads clearly detract from the Facebook user experience, we believe they come with higher CPMs and should help reaccelerate revenues in Q3 2012," Greenfield said in an Aug. 13 report. "It clearly shows that Facebook is trying harder to appeal to advertisers versus a strict focus on users' experience."
As Facebook gets more comfortable with entering the personal space of its users with advertisements, Dachis said customers will likely get used to them and may perhaps even start clicking on promotions that are most relevant to them. It is a free service, after all, and most users have come to accept that ads must be present to keep it that way.
A few days ago, Facebook said it would start testing a new type of ad that will allow advertisers to post promotions in the News Feeds of users who, unlike the requirement for sponsored stories, have yet to "like," or whose friends have not become a fan, of a brand's page.
If these promotional ads take off, it will allow companies to reach a whole new pool of potential customers, those whose profiles and interests on Facebook would be a good fit for a product but whom they were never before able to reach.
Webimax CEO Ken Wisnefski called the social network's heightened focus on advertising despite its long-held virtues a "necessary growing pain," but he was careful to point out challenges.
Ads are already becoming more intrusive than a year ago and Wisnefski said that if the site "becomes overrun with ads [and] no one is responding" Facebook may have to resort to other methods of raising revenue, such as asking its 900 million users to pay a small monthly fee.
A pay subscription model would be against much of what Zuckerberg has firmly held close since the launch of the network in his Harvard dorm room, but the sheer volume of dollars from its massive subscriber base would likely make a noticeable difference to Facebook's bottom line. And that at least might be a better solution than having a site overrun with what Greenfield called "adspam."
"Most will tune it out, skip over them and go and look at what's more pertinent to them," Wisnefski said. But "I still contend that ads are going to see a negative response from people."
Of course, Facebook has touted the success of its sponsored stories. For example, Electronic Arts (NYSE:EA), which began using sponsored stories last October, recorded $12.1 million in sales from Facebook, equivalent to about $4.38 in incremental revenue for every dollar spent.
1-800-Flowers (NASDAQ:FLWS) saw a 300% increase in transactions from Facebook leading up to Mother's Day, and eMarketer posted numbers in June that showed sponsored stories have led to an increase in clickthrough rates, costs per click and costs per thousand – all highly-watched metrics that evaluate the success of a digital ad campaign.
While GM pulled its ads prior to Facebook's IPO after calling them ineffective, major retailers like Ford (NYSE:F) and Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) have come to Zuckerberg's defense.
However, Wisnefski, whose company helps brands with advertising placement, said none of WebiMax's biggest clients "have seen any value" from Facebook ads. Only smaller businesses that serve a niche population have benefited, he said.
"Aside from targeted customers, we've never had anyone come back and say, 'Hey, Facebook has been a huge return for us,'" he said. "It's more fluff than substance."
But given Facebook's leadership in the market, desire to appease investors and pump up its market value that has fallen 60% since its IPO, Facebook won't settle with an ad platform that it feels is sub-par. Moreover, with Zuckerberg at the helm, it likely won't stray too far from its long-held emphasis on the user experience.
"I think it's that thoughtful approach into monetizing engagement that Facebook is going to figure out and when they do, I think you'll not only see a boost in Facebook's earnings and stock price, but a shift in the marketing universe," Dachis said.

At the end of September 2006 the U.S. Senate alien "The Unlawful Internet Coffer Administration Act 2006″. It wasn't so abundant alien as pushed through at the aback end of the "Safe Port Act", to which some commentators accept taken exception. This has acquired a flurry of all-overs and (some would say) agitation a part of players, website owners and online coffer affiliates alike. But what does the new law in fact mean? This commodity has a attending at the facts abaft the new legislation.
The aboriginal clue is in the diction of the Act itself; it is an administration Act. In added words it enforces antecedent and absolute law area amends of gaming has already been accustomed as a amount of precedent, and aswell the amends and abomination of altered types of gaming already existing.
I could do abundant worse than anon commendation the astute words from Cardplayers acknowledged counsel. He writes that the new bill
"attempts to accomplish it added difficult to get money into a website by abhorrent US banking Institutions from allotment the blazon of online coffer that the law has ahead fabricated illegal. The new bill does not accomplish online gaming actionable area it was not actionable afore …The bill alone speaks to the apparatus by which an online annual is funded."
In added words the Act attempts to arrest Internet coffer sites by craving them of funds, by acclimation the banks not to acquiesce players to use their acclaim cards to play at those sites.
There is annihilation about the action itself getting actionable (where it was not actionable before). And clearly, if the coffer sites in catechism are offshore, again by analogue they are not accountable to US legislation anyway. So the alone way to get at these adopted sites is through the banks and the acclaim agenda companies.
The commodity I adduce from goes on to adduce the acceptation of the 1961 Wire Act, which was construed to accept fabricated sports action illegal, but not amateur such as poker, on the area that the law was never activated with commendations to poker in the ten years that Internet coffer has existed. Instead, the 33 cases which were brought beneath the Wire Act were pursued by "deadbeat gamblers" who artlessly did not ambition to pay their coffer debts. The adjudicator on that accurate occasion, Stanwood R. Duvall Jr, threw out all 33 suits, so cardinal that online poker was not aural the ability of the Wire Act's prohibition.
Now while the attorneys are busying themselves on alive out the architecture of what the new law in fact means, it seems that players can accomplish a few simple choices in adjustment to assure themselves from what ability be construed:
1. Open an annual at an adopted Internet coffer website;
2. Ensure the website is registered with a non-US company;
3. Ensure the website is hosted by a non-US company.
The all-inclusive majority of adopted Internet coffer sites still accomplish in US dollars, and they more action assorted bill choices. You can baddest which bill you ambition to use afore you play. Even so, it may be advantageous canonizing that, at the time of writing, there are about $1.87 to the Pound Sterling, and $1.26 to the Euro.
If the law goes added it may able-bodied be all-important to administer for a acclaim agenda issued by a non-US bank. But this is still something that is accountable to speculation. We will accept to see how the new law pans out in practice. In accurate we will accept to anticipate the amount of how the law is construed and how antecedent impacts aloft it.

If I ever post something and (without irony) call it my "manifesto," then I give you permission to dismiss my ideas. Because sane people don't write manifestos. We send emails or make phone calls or talk to our friends. We send letters to Kaiser Permanente requesting they reimburse us for screwing over our autistic children for several years. We take our enemies to court. That's how we communicate, even about the things we care about most. We stay within the lines. Maybe we push right up against those lines in an effort to make them stretch, but we do not break them. We do not write manifestos. We do not acquire weapons and begin killing people.
And if we do, we are wrong.
There is a man named Christopher Dorner who has hidden himself away in the San Bernardino Mountains. There is a storm this weekend, which makes it more difficult to find him. On Wednesday, he killed a man my husband grew up with. He was a police officer in Riverside. He was a father to young children. He was a husband.
I expected that we could all agree that this man needed to be caught and put to trial and removed from society so that he couldn't kill anymore people. I did not expect for people on my Facebook page to begin posting snippets of his manifesto that they agreed with, mostly about Dorner's beliefs about gun control and LAPD corruption. I did not expect a small but very vocal minority to speak out in support of Dorner.
I am certain the LAPD is corrupt. I am certain it needs reform. Lots of things are corrupt. Lots of things need reform. Lots of us are wronged, all of the time, every day. Lots of people are wronged in ways that are much, much worse than the ways in which Dorner, a young, physically healthy, American man, might have been wronged. That doesn't give Dorner, or anyone, the right to appoint himself judge and sentence people to death. We are right to ask ourselves why this is happening and what we can do to prevent it in the future, but that doesn't mean we need to make Dorner a martyr or a hero. It is not heroic to gun down innocent people. As soon as you make Dorner a martyr for your cause, your cause is lost.
Maybe Dorner had something valuable and important to say. Maybe I would have listened. Maybe something would have changed. But he began murdering people in the name of his cause. And with that, nothing he says matters anymore. I will not read your manifesto because fuck your manifesto.

Your Excellency:
The issue of Violence against Women in the public sphere has been a major source of concern over the past few years, especially in the four years following the January 25th Revolution in 2011. Discussion of what Women have to endure in the public sphere became commonplace on many platforms, including the media and social networking sites. It has also become a leading item on the agendas of many feminist organizations and various groups which seek to confront the exacerbating and increasingly frequent phenomenon.

The murder of Farkhunda Malikzada, an Afghan religious scholar who had dedicated her life to fighting superstitions within the religious community, shocked the world in March 2015. She was killed by a group of more than 100 men who beat her to death, ran her over with a car and then set her on fire. She was killed because a senior religious cleric falsely accused her of burning the Quran, according to the BBC.After her death, protests were held to demand justice in Afghanistan and around the world. Despite global and national efforts, the trial for Malikzada was called a failure by many activists because several killers and policemen who watched the murder were recently acquitted.
Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) are an important pillar of the human rights framework and the below average results in this area are a poor reflector on the general human rights situation in Pakistan.
The following words recount the aftermath of the murder of Farkhunda in Kabul, who was killed by a mob after being accused of burning the Quran. The words come from a WLUML networker in Afghanistan, who wishes to remain anonymous for security reasons.
Yesterday was our new year, the year that started with renewed fears and agony.
WLUML is pleased to announce it has joined forces with the Women's Alliance for Kurdistan, Iraq and Syria, and will march with the Alliance on the 7th March to call for the liberation of all women under "IS" control on the occasion of International Women's Day. We invite you to march with us and join the call to end violence against women.
'There is such a strong desire on the part of many of us to make clear that "I am not ISIS. I am not like those crazies,"' according to Ani Zonneveld, founder of Muslims for Progressive Values. She explains the struggle to organize progressive Muslim communities and institutions in a fight back in the era of ISIS, in conversation with Karima Bennoune.

When desire crossed paths with reality, and the San Diego Sockers this season moved back to the site where a dynasty was born, Aaron Susi felt like he'd finally come home. And the timing couldn't have been better.
Susi is 38 years old and pondering the end of his playing career. This would be the season he gunned for a fifth straight Professional Arena Soccer League title – the last four coming with his hometown Sockers.
The Mission Bay High and San Diego State grad was a kid in the stands watching the likes of Juli Veee and Brian Quinn when they packed the Sports Arena (now Valley View Casino Center) in taking 10 championships in an 11-year span. Now Susi could be the one of the field circling that turf with a trophy in his arms.
"It would be awesome to see it come full circle," Susi, considering the possibility, said with a wide smile.
Two wins on home turf will make that a reality. The Sockers are hosting the PASL's Final Four in the Ron Newman Cup, with San Diego (15-1) opening at 6:35 p.m. on Sunday against the Las Vegas Legends (13-3). The first game at 4 p.m. Sunday matches Detroit (14-2) against Dallas (13-3).
The semifinal winners will meet in the championship game at 7:35 p.m. on Monday.
Coach and co-owner Phil Salvagio's Sockers have won every PASL title since the franchise was resurrected three years ago. They are a heavy favorite to take another in front of partisan crowds that are expected to push 5,000 at Valley View. Yet Susi and the boys more than ever have something to prove.
In late January, San Diego had its 48-game winning streak halted in an overtime loss to Dallas, and last weekend the Sockers suffered a second single-goal setback at Detroit in the final of the U.S. Open Cup. So either team they would face in the finals isn't melting at the sight of a bunch of banners in the rafters.
"It was definitely a wakeup call," Susi said. "For us to lose a second game is unchartered water for us for a long time. It's going to renew our focus and make us work hard this week. I guarantee you'll see a different team come Sunday."
Sockers forward Kraig Chiles (Poway High, SDSU) earned a third straight league MVP honor with new single-season records for goals (56) and points (72). Brian Farber, who set personal bests for assists (20) and points (46), was named to the second team.
Then there was the notable season produced by Susi, the team captain who notched a career-best 32 assists and 51 points to also make the second team in – note this – his 16th season of playing.
Susi even keeps the franchise running off the field, working in the front office in corporate sales and sponsorship. Not only does he wear the jersey, he finds the supporters to advertise on it.
"I feel like I've contributed a lot," he said. "It's indoor soccer. It's a niche sport. A lot of guys have never played indoor before, and after four years they're still learning. I feel like my leadership is big. I'm a good leader vocally. I try to show that on the field. I think that's one of my biggest assets."
That guidance has been especially important this year because the Sockers have had to adapt to change. They lost three key players to retirement or injury before the season began, and though they are deep, they haven't always jelled perfectly.
Too, the league has become better. Among the 19 teams, seven won at least 11 of their 16 games. The Sockers enjoyed their share of double-digit blowouts but against the top squads they walked a fine line. They played Sunday's foe, Las Vegas, only once and managed to edge the Legends 6-5.
Susi entered the season believing this would be his last as a player. He's still convinced that's the case, but hesitated just a bit when asked to consider the possibility of going out with something less than a championship.
"I'm not thinking like that," he said with a smile. "I'm confident we're going to win."

(Wheeling Intelligencer, April 25, 1861)
Movement in Harrison County for a Separate Organization
of the Northwest from the Seceders.
From the Clarksburg Guard, Extra
At a large and enthusiastic meeting of from 1,000 to 1,200 of the citizens of Harrison county, assembled at the Court House upon a notice of forty-eight hours, on Monday, April 22, 1861, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted without one dissenting voice.
WHEREAS, The Convention now in session in this State, called by the Legislature, the members of which had been elected twenty months before said call, at a time when no such action as the assemblage of a convention by legislative enactment was contemplated by the people, or expected by the members they elected in May, 1859, at which time no one anticipated the troubles recently brought upon our common country by the extraordinary action of the State authorities of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Louisiana, and Texas, has, contrary to the expectation of a large majority of the people of this State, adopted an ordinance withdrawing Virginia from the Federal Union: and whereas, by the law calling said Convention, it is expressly declared that no such ordinance shall have force or effect, or be of binding obligation upon the people of this State, until the same shall be ratified by the voters at the polls,: and whereas, we have seen with regret that demonstrations of hostility, unauthorized by law, and inconsistent with the duty of law-abiding citizens, still owing allegiance to the Federal Government, have been made by a portion of the people of this State against the said Government: and whereas, the Governor of this Commonwealth, has, by proclamation, undertaken to decide for the people of Virginia, that which they have reserved to themselves, the right to decide by their votes at the polls, and has called upon the volunteer soldiery of this State to report to him and hold themselves in readiness to make war upon the Federal Government, which Government is Virginia's Government, and must in law and of right continue so to be, until the people of Virginia shall, by their votes, and through the ballot-box, that great conservator of a free people's liberties, decide otherwise: and whereas, the peculiar situation of Northwestern Virginia, separated as it is by natural barriers from the rest of the State, precludes all hope of timely succor in the hour of danger from other portions of the State, and demands that we should look to and provide for our own safety in the fearful emergency in which we now find ourselves placed by the action of our State authorities, who have disregarded the great fundamental principle upon which our beautiful system of Government is based, to wit: "That all governmental power is derived from the consent of the governed," and have without consulting the people placed this State in hostility to the Government by seizing upon its ships and obstructing the channel at the mouth of Elizabeth river, by wresting from the Federal officers at Norfolk and Richmond the custom houses, by tearing from the Nation's property the Nation's flag, and putting in its place a bunting, the emblem of rebellion, and by marching upon the National Armory at Harper's Ferry; thus inaugurating a war without consulting those in whose name they profess to act; and whereas, the exposed condition of Northwestern Virginia requires that her people should be united in action, and unanimous in purpose - there being a perfect identity of interests in times of war as well as in peace - therefore, be it
Resolved, That it be and is hereby recommended to the people in each and all of the counties composing Northwestern Virginia to appoint delegates, not less than five in number, of their wisest, best, and discreetest men, to meet in Convention at Wheeling, on the 13th day of May next, to consult and determine upon such action as the people of Northwestern Virginia should take in the present fearful emergency,
Resolved, That Hon: John S. Carlile, W. Goff, Hon. Chas. S. Lewis, J. Davis, Lot Bowen, Dr. Wm. Dunkin, W. E. Lyon, Felix Sturm, and James Lynch be and are hereby appointed delegates to represent this county in said Convention.
JOHN HURLEY, Pres.
J. W. Harris, Sec'y.
Strange to say, among that large assembly, not a single response was heard to the call by the President for the nays on any of the questions before the meeting.

Second-year quarterback Terrelle Pryor arrived late in training camp last season as a result of being selected by the Raiders in the third round of the NFL supplemental draft.
That, combined with his having to serve a five-game suspension for a violation of NCAA rules at Ohio State, set back Pryor's development.
Well, now he's on equal footing with his teammates and ready to make strides toward being a starting NFL quarterback. He realizes that he has to wait his turn, given the Raiders have veteran Carson Palmer on the roster, too. However, he is doing everything he can so that he will be ready when called upon.
Here is what Pryor had to say in a lenghty interview after a recent organized team activity in Alameda:
Q: How much further ahead are you with an actual offseason to work with?
Pryor: Big time in terms of footwork, confidence, believing in myself. All of that stuff is miles ahead with more great things to come.
Q: Interview with Sports Illustrated, questioned things?
Pryor: I'm not going to talk about that. That's in the past.
Q: How difficult was last year?
Pryor: It was just hard not playing. It'd be like you not being able to report or do something that you love. You maybe love to golf and you can't, you have a sore arm or whatever or your back and you can't golf anymore. It just gets frustrating.
Q: How different is the offense?
Pryor: This offense is great. I love this offense. Coach Knapp has got some good stuff going for Carson, myself and Matt. It's a great opportunity to be a part of this, I'll tell you that much.
Q: Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp believes in you. How much does that help?
Pryor: I'm not saying that he's supposed to. I work hard and I do the right thing just like Carson does, just like Matt does. That's how it should be.
Q: Disappointed they signed Matt Leinart?
A: This is the business of football. You have to have a strong core quarterback group because that's really what leads the team. Defense does win games, yes. You need everybody to be on the same page, but you need a quarterback to know what's going on and be able to lead the team. I'm not discouraged at all that Matt's here. Matt's a great guy and I'm going to go about my business getting better and working hard and no one out-working me. That's how I live and that's how I do things every day, and it won't change.
Q: Did you get 1 percent better
Pryor: Oh yeah. Big big huge improvement. I spent a lot of time with Coach DiFilipio and I cleaned up the footwork, taking my feet in my progression and nothing but good results.
Q: You really competing for No. 2 spot or content to be No.3?
Pryor: Oh, yes, I'm competing to play.
Q: Have to caution to not try to overdo it after missing last year?
Pryor: Naw, I just go within the plays that I get and within the reps that I get. Just like I said, my 1 percent. I live by that code because that's all I want to do. I want to get myself better. I'm not worried about … I mean sure, I learned a lot from Carson but I'm not going to worry about what he's doing. I'm not going to worry about what Matt's doing because I have to be on my A game every day. I'm competing to play in the second spot, competing to play, get in the game a leader on the field, off the field? That's the questions I ask myself to see if I got an A today or I got one percent better or what?
Q: Each quarterback have a different skill set?
Pryor: I got a big arm, too. A big arm. I just happen to be able to run and that just adds on to my arsenal. If you go throughout the reads and do the right progression and throw the ball to the right spot where you want it to be, and if nothing's there and I take off, then that's a plus.
Q: What did you think about rookie wide receiver Juron Criner?
Pryor: He saved Carson, he saved myself, he saved Matt also. He's a player. He has learned, just like myself and everybody else, he's going to be a good one. He catches everything that comes near him. I was very impressed with him.
Q: Relief to get back on the field?
Pryor: It's good to play this game that I love and continuing to get better every day. It's a blessing. Different circumstances because I'm behind somebody that's very talented. I wouldn't want to learn from anybody else than Carson. But I'm in a different position, I'm working hard to get better every day and learn from him and taking mental reps while he's in there taking snaps. That's all I can do right now.
Q: What's it like learning from Palmer?
Pryor: As a person, he's one of the best people I've ever met, the way he handles his work but he also gets into my technique to fix what I did wrong. He's great. I couldn't ask for anyone better.
Q: Coaching change, worry you might not have a place?
Pryor: No, because I knew my work ethic would … I know coaches come in and have a different perspective about you or whoever the player is, and I knew my work ethic and how I drop and do the things that they wanted me to do. It carried myself over into what they wanted done. If I wasn't doing it right in practice or whatever we're doing in drills, I would be out here working by myself so it is what they want. But that didn't really come into my mind.
Q: This offseason, where did you improve?
Pryor: Really just footwork and having a chance to learn the offense. I didn't know anything last year, nothing at all. I knew some of the stuff going into games and stuff like that but starting from Day 1 here right now when the new coaches came in. On the other hand I came in last year at the end of camp and everything was already put in. I couldn't ask the coach, the offensive coordinator. We didn't even have a quarterbacks coach so I couldn't even learn anything from that standpoint. So this is definitely a blessing and this is in God's hands.
Q: What was that one play you were in for going to be if it hadn't been negated by the penalty?
PRYOR: Just a quarterback sneak. But I mean, I was doing what I was told. I never heard of a rule — neither did any of our coaches know the rule — of getting under the center too fast and snapping the ball too fast.
Did you know that?
Q: No, I didn't know that, either. So it's unfortunate…
Q: Were there going to be more plays for you in that game?
PRYOR: I had a whole package in. But I think that whole package didn't come in maybe because of that play or the score ended up being 21-7 or 21-0, I can't remember. That screwed it up, too.
Q: You think you could've played more in the following games if that play had gone better?
PRYOR: I don't know. I was told to take the snap just like I did. So I obeyed my coaches and did exactly what they told me to do. But it's my fault. We'll do it like that. I'll take the responsibility. The score–I'll take it as the score was 21-7 and I couldn't get in.
Q: Do you have any indication that they might be adding specialty plays for you this season?
PRYOR: Competing to play. Carson is the starter and he's going to be the starter. But I don't put myself as I'm going to be backup. I mean, I don't sit around saying, 'I want to be a backup, that's what I want to be.' That's not how I operate. That's not how I want to be. I'm going to work to play. And Carson's always played well and always will. Whenever the opportunity comes for me to play, I'll play. But I'm not planning to be a back-up. Get that correct.
Q: How much does it help to have a veteran like Carson to learn from?
PRYOR: Oh, he's great. A lot of the stuff I know right now I've learned from Carson. It's just great to have him here.
Q: What kinds of stuff does he say to you?
PRYOR: Just something small, like we were watching film today and I threw a pass, I completed it, but after the play he's like, 'Look where your left foot was, your pointer foot, it was turned inside.' And I was throwing the ball across the field. So little things like that that he does all the time. That's a big help just to hear it from him. He's taking all his time to give a word for me to get better.
Q: Dennis Allen has said there's a lot in you to prove to people you can play quarterback in the NFL. Is that a driving thing for you?
PRYOR: Yeah. I'm just looking for my opportunity, because when I get an opportunity, it's on from there. Of course, it fuels me that people say I couldn't be a quarterback or stuff like that. But my plan is in God's hands, like I said before, and with my work ethic and within myself. And whatever anybody else says it's irrelevant to me. It really doesn't matter to me.
Q: Did you ever get a chance to talk to Al Davis?
PRYOR: I talked to him a couple times a week before he passed. He would give me a call. Just a couple times a week–he would just tell me he believed in me and stuff like that. Nothing very… I'm not sure exactly what was going on with him… We would get on the phone and we would chat.
Q: Do you view this almost as a true rookie year for you because of the limitations of last year?
PRYOR: What I can say about last year is I learned the speed of the corners, I learned what the NFL is, in terms of, you have to get back and get rid of the ball. The rush is between the D-linemen getting to you, nothing else. So I learned the speed of the D-linemen, you've got to get the ball out fast because of them. You've got to throw at different angles. From that standpoint, no, I'd say this is my second year. Because I learned an awful lot by taking snaps against the first team in… the practice-role doing the scout team. I learned a lot in terms of physical stuff like that. So I learned a good bit. I'd say this is my second year because I did learn a lot.
Q: Have you convinced some of the WRs to stay out here for you to throw to?
PRYOR: Oh yeah. We've got a bunch of hard-working guys. We also have guys that want to get better. No one's good enough not to get enough work.
Q: Allen has said how hard a worker you are. You think you surprise coaches sometimes by working that hard?
PRYOR: I like to work hard, you know? Because when it's my time to play, I want to be more than ready. I want guys to be like, 'Wow.' That's it.
Q: When's that going to be?
PRYOR: Whenever the time comes.
Q: When you have those conversations with Al Davis, does that motivate you?
PRYOR: Yeah, that drives me. Because the last pick–the last pick may not mean anything. I might not mean nothing to anybody. But to me, you know, it kind of felt like–last pick of a guy that made a legacy of football. He was just a well-known guy. Being the last pick… I mean, that's special, just in that sense, just how his name is always brought up. He's on HBO shows now after his death. It's just an honor, how much I have to, I want to.
Q: What's it like to finally have a QBs coach, like DeFilippo, unlike last year?
PRYOR: Oh, it's great. You learn. He's all about technique and stuff. He works with me, I'm always around him, I'm always texting him, getting input, so it's great. To have somebody to lean on when I need to know something, (instead of)
just having an offensive coordinator. I mean, I never heard of that before. I didn't know what I was getting into coming in here. It's definitely great that Mr. McKenzie got a quarterback coach because I'm learning a lot.
Q: Was it DeFilippo who noticed the technique work you needed?
PRYOR: A lot of my throws, it was all in my feet, in my hips and how I carried my feet. Since I picked up that stuff up, my balls are becoming very accurate. It's helping.
Q: You're already noticing a difference?
PRYOR: Oh, yes, huge. Huge difference. I sit back in the film room and I watch Carson and then Carson helps me. So it's great. I've got a great opportunity and it's a great time. Because I'm learning a great bit.

South African designer Heath Nash unveiled a colorful, eclectic chandelier made almost entirely from recycled PET bottles at this year's Milan Design Week. Dubbed Bottleformball, the brilliantly-hued recycled creation is crafted from multicolored pieces of salvaged bottles attached to a hand-made wire structure. We love how the artfully arranged bottle pieces look almost like colored ceramics when illuminated from within.
Nash's Bottleformball was showcased at the Misael Gallery, which sought to "Redream Paradise" by showcasing an eclectic group of artists and designers all working with recycled materials to create modern ecological designs. Misael artists redream paradise by reusing industrial materials to recreate natural or organic objects.
Misael went to South Africa to team up with thirty-six year old Heath Nash, who has been working with recycled materials since he was a young boy — a tradition that you will see on every street corner if you visit South Africa. For the last 15 years, he has developed his art to transform plastic bottles into works that could light up any room. For this correspondent, the objects and the vitality of the colors recall the still brightly shining works of the 13th century artisans of the Della Robbia clan, who worked with glazed terracotta.
The Misael Gallery currently has spaces set up in Milan and Cape Town, and will soon be opening a space in Vincenza, Italy, before branching out to Shanghai where they can expand their concept of eco design across three continents.

Are Criminals Using Your Blog to Spread Malware?
Cyber-criminals often don't bother to register new domains and set up their malicious sites from scratch. It's far easier to hack into existing Websites and drop a malicious page in a subdirectory. A recent post on the Unmask Parasites blog described how cyber-criminals hijack legitimate domains for malicious purposes.
Several recent malware outbreaks (including Flashback) relied on hacked WordPress or Joomla sites. Since Webmasters generally just check pages they've created themselves and rarely check subdirectories for new files, they may not notice the malicious pages for months, according to Unmask Parasites.
"It's an easy way to create millions of doorway pages on thousands of established domains with good reputation for free," according to the post.
Step One: Get on the Server
Attackers usually get access using "brute force" methods to guess administrator passwords for the WordPress (or Joomla) installation. Password-guessing tools which can guess and try out various combinations of passwords in a short period of time are readily available. With the administrator password in hand, the attacker can log in to the blog platform and create subdirectories directly on the server.
While they could just take over the entire site, many criminals lurk in one corner of the server and go about their business quietly. Taking over alerts the Webmaster that something is wrong. It's far more lucrative for the criminal to silently serve up pages without the Webmaster's knowledge.
"Sometimes such sections may be significantly larger than legitimate sections of hacked Websites and attract much more search traffic," according to the blog post.
Step Two: Set up Shop
The criminals bury the subdirectory in a location that the Webmaster would not notice. In the case of a WordPress installation, the subdirectory may be hidden inside the uploads or plugins directories. The attackers can easily launch a fully-functioning site by uploading their own blog or site into that subdirectory. Or, it may just contain a redirect file to send users to a storefront promoting fake software or luxury products.
The links to the parasite pages can be spammed out in e-mails and on social networks. It can also be used as part of black hat search engine optimization tactics to poison search results.
Universities are often abused in this manner. I ran a search today for "buy windows 7 pro" (without quotes) on Google and found a page hosted by Illinois Institute of Technology on the first page of the search results, followed by one from Parkland College in Illinois on the second. Both links redirected to a fake storefront.
What Should Webmasters Do?
Use a strong password. Yes, it's that simple. Administrator passwords should not use any dictionary words and should be as complex as possible to withstand brute-force attacks. (Don't save a text file on the Web server with the password, though. That's just giving away the keys to anyone who gets on the server through other means).
After making sure the password is secure, Webmasters should regularly check to see if there are any new directories or subdirectory. In most cases, just checking the timestamp is enough. Anything that looks newer than other files should encourage you to take another look. Use Google's Webmaster tools or run extensive searches against your site to see what kind of content is being served up.
Keep the blog software up-to-date so that cyber-criminals can't take advantage of a security hole. That applies to plugins and other third-party software being used with the blog's core installation files.
Vigilance is key to making sure your site isn't spreading spam or malware.

With skyrocketing input costs and the volatility of prices in world markets, farmers need the "protection and peace of mind" of a farm program safety net, says Carlisle Clarke, agriculture liaison for Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss.
"They need this so they can continue to provide food security for the U.S. and to supply the export demands of a growing world population," he said at the annual meeting of the Mississippi Agricultural Economics Association at Mississippi State University.
But, he cautioned, with farm commodity prices having hit record highs in recent years, and with the federal government facing record deficits, "in this fiscal environment, we have something of a perfect storm for opponents of production agriculture to target all of our programs for cuts."
The 12-member bipartisan Joint Committee on Deficit Reduction, tasked with coming up with $1.2 trillion in federal budget cuts, "has been very tight-lipped from the beginning" about the extent of cuts for various programs, including agriculture, Clarke says.
"We in agriculture, like everyone on all the congressional other committees, have been wondering how much we're going to be expected to give up."
The Obama administration, he says, issued a proposal that would lop $33 billion from agriculture spending, coming from commodity, conservation, and crop insurance titles.
"The agriculture committees have been wondering what number the Joint Committee is looking for, but we've had no feedback."
Chairmen and co-chairmen of House and Senate Agriculture Committees were asked to submit by Oct. 15 a letter citing the amount to come out of their respective jurisdictions, Clarke says. "The number they came up with was $23 billion."
Of that, he says, the consensus was that commodity titles would have to give up anywhere from $14 billion to $16 billion.
A concern in the budget-cutting process, he says, is the makeup of the Joint Committee — of the 12 members, only one is a member of an agriculture committee, Sen. Max Baucus of Montana. (D)
"Two years ago, on the Senate Agriculture Committee, we had the chairman and ranking member representing southern states. Today we have neither.
"That's a concern, too, because it's still not clear if there will be any type of hearings, markups, or public settings where members outside the four committee principals — none of whom represent southern agriculture — will get to weigh in with recommendations for policy changes.
"We, as Republicans and representatives of southern states, have emphasized that we need to provide producer flexibility as a policy option. If we're truly going to make a proposal that's equitable for all regions, we need producer flexibility."
The Joint Committee has until Nov. 23 to issue their proposal for the target of $1.2 trillion in cuts, Clarke notes.
"Agriculture is such a small component of federal spending, and there are more sensitive issues that have to be addressed, including Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and Tax Reform.
No agreement on baseline
"To give some perspective, as of today the 12 members of the Joint Committee haven't even agreed on where to start at zero to determine the baseline for the cuts. There is a very distinct possibility that Nov. 23 will come and nothing will have been been achieved by the committee.
"If they fail to come up with the $1.2 trillion in cuts, we'd then go to budget sequestration, basically putting the federal budget in the hands of the Congressional Budget Office.
"What that would mean for agriculture is that the CBO would likely cut less than $23 billion — an estimate is around $15 billion to $16 billion — but from proposals we've seen, they would eliminate direct payments, without touching nutrition and conservation.
"Democrats are in favor of holding on to nutrition — 44 million Americans are projected to be on food stamps next year, and nutrition programs are 75 percent of the ag budget. Some of these sacred cows will be very hard to touch in the budget-cutting process.
"We don't know if the Joint Committee will accept our farm policy recommendations. The committee has unprecedented power; if they do come up with ag policy recommendations on their own, the scary thing is that when their proposal goes to the House and Senate for a vote, there will not be an amendment process – just a straight up or down vote.
"This process is not ideal by any means, but we're just playing the hand we've been dealt at this point."
Ironically, Clarke says, commodity programs have actually saved money under the 2008 farm bill, "so when the March baseline comes out, we'll already be behind the 8-ball because the baseline for commodities will be smaller."
Investment in commodity programs "is an investment in domestic food supply and global food security," he says. "There is a limited acreage worldwide that can produce crops, and with the projected rate of global population growth the only way we'll be able to meet these food needs is to encourage research, biotechnology, and investments in agriculture."
In a question-and-answer session, Clarke said it remains to be seen how cuts for agriculture will be spread over the titles.
"The general consensus is that commodity titles, conservation, and nutrition would bear the brunt of the cuts in our $23 billion proposal. It's still up for discussion what the ratios would be, but I think the writing is on the wall that commodities will get the majority of the cuts."
Producers will still get direct payments in 2012, he noted.
"Our proposal would not take effect until the 2013 crop year, which would give producers time to restructure and adjust to any changes."
He says, "We're toeing the line as long as we can to keep direct payments — but a lot of people see the writing on the wall, and we're telling commodity groups that direct payments are likely to be eliminated.
"Obviously, we'd like to use those funds and redirect them to investment in other commodity programs. But unfortunately, a lot of people in leadership positions have it as a top priority to eliminate direct payments."
Renewable energy programs in the 2008 farm bill don't have any baseline beyond 2012, Clarke says.
"There is no mandatory spending — it's all discretionary. The rumor mill is that those programs will be authorized as discretionary programs, with appropriators like Sen. Cochran having authority to assign funding."
Ethanol tax breaks are set to expire at the end of this year, as well as ethanol import tariffs, he notes.
Agriculture research programs are likely to be "relatively unscathed," Clarke says. "A lot of research dollars are discretionary, so appropriations would provide those. The Senate did pass a mini-appropriations bill Nov. 1 that included ag research, and we should be in conference with the House in coming weeks to fund ag research."
Agriculture is "the cornerstone of Mississippi's economy," he says. In 2011, the value of Mississippi agricultural production was $6.88 billion, and continuation of ag research programs "is vital to meeting this country's future food needs."

Positive Anymore - What The Heck Does That Mean?
Chances are, you're thinking one of two things:
1) Of course - why are you even asking?
2) Of course not - why would anyone talk like that, and what's wrong with them?
The grammatical construction that provokes these two opposing responses is called "positive anymore," because in standard English you can only use 'anymore' in negative constructions. Okay, it's a little more complicated than that, but I don't want to get too technical. Isn't it strange, though, that to some people these sentences seem perfectly normal whereas to others they seem to barely even be English? But that's just the beginning. I think that the groups of people who insist that Positive Anymore is nonsense aren't necessarily the ones who don't use it. This constructions flies under many people's proverbial radar. I have a story that highlights this: I was talking with three people from Denver, when one of them said something like "I really like radicchio anymore." Being a weirdo, I was compelled to point this out. Her landsleit were shocked that anyone would say something like that, but they were even more shocked that they had understood it without evening noticing. Strange, no? Stranger still is that this key feature of dialect can't be neatly summed up by geography - everyone was from Denver.
It's things like that that keep me going: details that show that beneath the calm surface of everyday life are eddies of surprise and wonder. That's what I hope this blog will be about. At least in theory. In practice it will be an outlet for my thoughts about language and music, my two main interests.
Read on and share your thoughts.

i was poking around the inter-web for a positive anymore isogloss and i stumbled across your blog. i'm totally feeling the ungrammaticality.
- Ben said...
Indeed. As far as I'm concerned, ungrammaticality is where it's at!
- oakling said...
OH MY GOD THANK YOU. I have loved this construction for years and have never - before tonight - been able to conduct a Google search that gave me more examples or told me what it was called! Or found anyone who understood it! And now I know what it is called! Yaaaaay!
- Anonymous said...
The "positive anymore" sounds like something I would hear old people say.
- Steph said...
My boyfriend always says anymore in positive construction and I would always criticise him but now I know it's widely used I guess.. it seemed weird to me and I noticed the first time he did it that it sounded wrong.
- Anonymous said...
this positive is said a lot throughout the philadelphia area. it is something that kind of just turned into this saying that it is a positive.
- Anonymous said...
Hey, I know this post is old as dirt, but I sure hope that unlike 'positive anymore', the substitution of 'even' with 'evening' will not become a mainstay of the American English language!
"but they were even more shocked that they had understood it without evening noticing"
( I realize this may have been intentional. Problem is - one never knows. Stick to proper grammar and spelling and down with 'Positive Anymore' (the construct, not the blog), I say! )
- Steve Bryant said...
I found a rough draft of a poem by a onetime Philadelphia resident. Here's the stanza that caught my eye:
But the Raven still beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore —
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking "Anymore."

Rosealma R. "Rose" Loewe was born in Topsham, Maine, in 1919 and passed away Friday, Feb. 22, 2013, in San Luis Obispo. Often calling herself a "Mainiac," a play on the name of her birth state, Mom greeted each person she encountered with her beautiful smile.
Rose married Arthur, the man of her dreams, and raised a family, Ron, Don, and Darlene, in Glendale. The children were Rose's pride and joy, and all three children learned many valuable life lessons from Rose and Arthur.
While Arthur fought in World War II, Rose worked at the Bath Shipyards in Maine. When the War was over, they moved to California with their two sons. For over 20 years Rose worked as a waitress at the Tam O'Shanter restaurant, the Verdugo Club and the Oakmont Country Club, having served well-known people like Walt Disney, Errol Flynn and Casey Stengel, to name a few.
After having raised her children, Mom became a dutiful caregiver for her aging parents, and eventually for her husband, having shared care and joy with all of them.
Rose and Arthur traveled extensively around the USA, some with lifelong friends. They also sailed the Eastern seaboard, rafted the Colorado River and cruised around Australia, to Alaska and through the Panama Canal.
After Arthur passed and under the watchful eye of her children, Rose moved to the Village at Sydney Creek in San Luis Obispo CA, where she received wonderful care for over 10 years. Her smile, French lessons and sense of humor made her a favorite among the staff.
Rose leaves behind her three children, Ron Loewe (Pat) of Sea Isle City, NJ; Don Loewe of
Glendale and Darlene Kellett (Ken) of Los Osos, CA; two grandchildren in New Jersey, Jennifer Rose (Steve) and Michael Loewe; and Mom's first great grandchild, Jack Joseph Piskadlo, born Tuesday, Feb.12, 2013.
A celebration of Rose's life was held March 16, 2013, at the Village at Sydney Creek. Donations
in honor of Rosealma can be made to the Sydney Creek Employees' Fund, at 1234 Laurel Lane, San Luis Obipso, CA 93401.
