From the moment they first touch a prospect to the time they (hopefully) retain a customer, there are countless ways companies can lose contact and allow prospects to fall out of the funnel. Marketing automation helps avoid this scenario by facilitating lead-nurturing programs that plug the leak and lead-scoring, routing and monitoring initiatives that close the gap from interest to conversion.
Yet many marketers, perhaps intimidated by the perceived complexity of today's cutting-edge technologies, don't take full advantage of marketing automation.
It doesn't have to be that way. Instead of falling victim to "paralysis by analysis," think big but start simply. Here's a primer for how you can crawl, walk and run your way to lead-management success.
CRAWL: Establish Online Conversations
As you get started, your focus should be on building a strong foundation from which you can send relevant messages that engage prospects.
Step 1: Take steps to improve deliverability
Your carefully crafted messages won't have much impact if they don't reach the inbox. So, take the time to clean up your list, confirming anyone you'll be mailing to has given permission, eliminating duplicate files, and integrating data from various sources. Make sure to use your own dedicated IP address from which to send messages and authenticate outbound email using the standard protocols (DKIM, Domain Keys, SenderID, SPF). And remember to test your message templates for broken or nonstandard coding and for content ISPs might associate with spam.
Step 2: Capture data more efficiently
To build a healthy dialogue with prospects, you must first get to know them. Resist the temptation to overwhelm new leads by asking them a long list of questions on forms or at opt-in, and instead limit your queries to the basics regarding content, format and frequency. And make sure your emails, website, landing pages and forms maintain similar branding and messages.
Step 3: Develop personas and related content
Start thinking about your customers' motivations, expectations and goals. Doing so enables you to take a more customer-centric view and develop a core definition of who you're targeting and what the nature of the interaction with these audiences should look like. Create educational content and test offers to see what resonates mostly strongly with your prospects.
WALK: Integrate Campaigning
Now you're at the stage when you can really start taking advantage of marketing automation.
Step 1: Use behavioral tracking by linking to your Web presence
Understanding your audience's digital footprints, knowing where they came from and where they went, will help you send relevant communications and guide you on how to handle a lead (e.g. sales alert, nurture campaign, etc.). And by tracking this online behavior before a prospect has opted in to receive your messages, you can use this data to ensure that your very first communication is engaging.
Step 2: Build multitouch campaigns
Most prospects require multiple touches over an extended time period to nurture them from initial interest to conversion. For example, an effective lead nurturing program might entail following up an online registration with an immediate ebook, emailing five days later with a link to a demo, sending a Webinar evite two weeks after the initial contact, and offering a sales intro a month after the original registration.
Step 3: Send at the right time
What's the best time to send email? Marketers have been agonizing over this question for years, but the answer is simple: When readers are most likely to be engaged. By using new email technology, such as Silverpop's Send Time Optimization, that analyzes recipient behavior on a rolling basis and then predicts the ideal email delivery time for each address on a mailing list, you can send messages to each recipient based on when he or she is most likely to be checking email.
RUN: Automate the Dialogue and Process
Having mastered the basics, it's time to add a layer of sophistication to your lead-management process that will increase efficiency and tighten up any remaining leaks in the funnel.
Step 1: Score leads using implicit and explicit info
Developing a lead scoring system for ranking the qualification of prospects according to their buying interest can increase the number of quality leads sent to sales. Using both explicit data (e.g. company size, industry segment, job title or geographic location) and implicit data (e.g. website visits, email clicks and opens, recency and frequency of actions) will give the best criteria on which to score.
Step 2: Develop lead-stage campaigns
All leads are not created equal, so develop different campaigns for long-term prospects, medium-term leads and short-term opportunities. Match the content and cadence to each as applicable, for example sending short-cycle leads more frequent communications with content such as testimonials and pricing comparisons.
Step 3: Align with sales
Integrate your marketing automation platform with your CRM system to give sales full visibility into marketing's activities—and vice versa. And don't forget to get salespeople's input when designing your lead-scoring system—they are tremendous information resources, and their buy-in will help ease concerns about whether leads deemed "sales-ready" are actually worth their time.
Taking Flight: Watch Your Marketing Program Soar
Once your lead-management program is at the "run" stage, you can fine-tune your process to reach even higher ROI. Incorporating persona-based multichannel campaigns, multiple lead-scoring models and advanced revenue reporting are just a few of the more sophisticated tactics you can use to take it up a notch.
But first you have to learn how to crawl, walk and run. Bottom line: Start building a strong foundation now, and before you know it you'll be reaping the benefits of advanced lead nurturing and driving more quality leads than ever.

Many leaders in the community have asked that a community activism archive be created that would bring into one location the valuable information about how people in Lowell have solved problems. Usually, most information of this sort gets lost. People develop effective strategies and plans for addressing environmental issues but then they move on and no one knows about the work that they did. As a part of a course on "Advanced Community Dynamics" (Fall 2003), we designed archives, gathering information on community group, programs and businesses.
Note: If you are using the documents for any reason we ask that you credit the source to where you found the document as well as the author.
Special thanks to graduate students of the Advanced Community Dynamics Class (Fall 2003) and Professor Silka for starting this online archive.

I think the answer is no, but I figure why not ask.
I've looked through the vendor portal and can't see a way, but I would like to not allow purchasing my apps through the carrier (which then goes through Bango).
This way, the user can either move on and not purchase, or use their paypal/credit card.
I'm motivated due to the email that I received today informing me that Bango will charge a fee to send me the money by paypal ($6.00) or direct deposit ($20.00).
My apps are very low volume and only on the Playbook and BB10. And since Bango only pays with a minimum $50, I doubt I'll ever see any money from them.
Or perhaps I'm ignorant of the whole situation and it's implications.
05-23-2013 02:22 PM - edited 05-23-2013 02:23 PM
It does seem very discouraging. I don't see a way to opt out from the vendor portal, other than possibly contacting vendor support.
This sort of goes right along with the other thread on payments. There really needs to be better communication about all of this from BlackBerry, DRI, and Bango.
What gets discouraging is the amount of fees that can possibly be taken out. Let's say you have 10 sales a day @ $.99, and 10% are carrier billing (Bango). The app would have made $297 in that month.
DRI and BlackBerry would pay you your 70% from their recorded sales (90% sales = $267), and you would see approximately $187 between the two.
Sales through Bango would be $29.70, with $20.79 being the vendor's portion. With a $50 minimum monthly payout, it would be at least three months before a payment would hit the $50 mark ($62 in this example), of which Bango charges $6 to transfer to PayPal. For $89 in gross sales, the vendor receives $54 (60%). If the vendor lives somewhere that doesn't accept PayPal, they receive $42 after the $20 processing fee (47%). Over half of the sales amount goes towards fees. And that is provided that monies through Bango are available promptly.
If you have an app selling $1000+ per month in carrier billed sales, it's probably not an issue. But lower-end sales means a larger % gets eaten up with fees. Hopefully, someone from BlackBerry will comment, since this really affects independent developers more than software companies.
I completely agree with you it's an incredible high percentage of fee for the independent developer.
*Like this post
I also have to agree with this, these fees are uncalled for - and the worst part is, we have no choice. Bango is the only merchant for Carrier billing on BB10. Carrier billing is an important advantage of being in BlackBerry World and I wouldn't want to lose that payment option, but $6 is six copies of my app! And don't forget the fine print, that some settlements can require multiple PayPal transactions! I really don't think it's fair for Bango to be taking the equivalent of 20% or more of my hard earned revenues just to get the funds to me.
This is on top of the fact that a) you don't get paid unless you've accrued more than $50 in sales, b) once they generate the invoice to pay you, it takes another 60 days for the payment to actually happen, c) there is no way to accurately verify they are even paying you the correct amount (lack of reconciled/consolidated reporting and invoicing).
Blackberry already has existing relationships with the carriers, and I don't see any value being added by Bango. Why couldn't BlackBerry give Bango the boot and take over as the merchant for carrier billing, streamlining and improving the Vendor payment process for everyone? This would probably increase Developer satisfaction more than any other change they could make. I know I would be happier.
I also am waiting for a way to opt-out from Bango purchases.
It may cost me money in the long run, but it is important for us to make some kind of stand.
Lets assume you are a small developer that just clears 50/month.
If you use PayPal:
You lose 30% off the top, plus 2% to all 'cost conversions', plus 12% for PayPal fees (that are 6x what PayPal advertises on their website)
End result: Small developer pays Bango up-to 44%, keeping 26 of the 50 dollars they earned
If you use Direct Deposit:
You lose 30% off the top, plus 2% to all "cost conversions", plus 40% for Direct Deposit fees (most banks have free direct deposit these days)
End result: Small developer pays Bangu up-to 72%, keeping 14 of the 50 dollars they earned
They justify the high paypal fees because they are making the small developers pay the same fees as a large developer, even though the actual paypal costs are different. Effectively forcing small developers to subsidize the paypal costs for large developers.
I'd love to opt out. I ran the stats this month - I brought in 925.90 in app sales through Bango. And Bango paid me 577.65, pocketing about 38%. Probably the worst part for me is knowing that BlackBerry approved the fee structure - knowing full well it is intended to penalize small developers.

How did you arrive at the value of 925.90 ? From the Blackberry sales reports or from the Bango Invoices?
05-06-2014 09:42 AM - edited 05-06-2014 09:44 AM
Bango invoices, BlackBerry totals are split across three different store fronts (now 2).
BlackBerry hasnt given us a good way to validate what Bango see's from a grand overview
I would also love to see a proper way to analyse the sales data. The new charts at bango are nice, but since the most sales are happening via paypal and debit cards the most interesting stuff is happening at the vendor portal with the not so good charts.
And the export function doesn't help. It contains local currencies and I have no idea for how much a certain app was sold. :-/

2 Number of maidens bowled by Ben Hilfenhaus in IPL 2012. He had also bowled a maiden against the Mumbai Indians on May 6. Hilfenhaus thus became the fifth bowler after Irfan Pathan, Praveen Kumar, Munaf Patel and Dale Steyn to bowl two maiden overs in the IPL 2012.
2.00 Ben Hilfenhaus' economy (4-1-8-2) – the best for any bowler in IPL2012 in four-over spell. Kings XI Punjab's Praveen Kumar had also conceded only eight runs against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on May 2.
8 Runs conceded by Shaun Tait in his first three overs. He conceded 12 runs off his next legitimate delivery!
18 Runs scored by both Albie Morkel and Srikkanth Anirudha. Interestingly, both faced the same number of balls (6) and hit same number of boundaries (two sixes and one four).
21.50 Run-rate during the Morkel-Anirudha partnership – 43* off 12 balls!
38 Catches taken by Suresh Raina in the IPL – the most by any fielder. He goes ahead of Rohit Sharma's tally of 37 catches.
200 The Rajasthan Royals became the first team to hit 200 boundary fours in IPL 2012. At the end of the match, their tally of fours stands at 205.
8000 The match saw the 8000th boundary four being hit in IPL history. The exact tally now stands at 8002. Incidentally, the Chennai Super Kings have hit the most number of boundary fours across the five editions of the IPL – 982. They have also hit most sixes – 409.

Welcome to our world
So you are now back in 'our country'. We had a great time with your family in Turkey and if you want hot, that's where it is.

Trip Start
Jan 20, 2005
Trip End
Sep 10, 2005
After a twelve hour bus ride to Sydney , a night there and a nine hour flight , here I am , on Waikiki beach Hawaii! The first shock was the heat wave that hit me when I first exited the plane , geez it's hot here. The second is that the driver was on the wrong , i mean right... well... side of the road! After being in countries that drove on the left for five months , even crossing the street changes. Now I'm in the beachside hostel for at least two weeks, probably more and the beaches are packed!
I spent about two days just sitting in the sun on the beach and walking around Waikiki which was fun but strange. This place doesn't seem like America at all. If you ignore the small things like the menu in McDonalds and that there is a Burger King instead of a Hungry Jack like in Oz , Hawaii is definitely another one of America's mistake. This way Americans feel like they are in another country when they actually haven't crossed any borders or seen anything different. Congratulations USA for yet another way to stay put.
Who cares though? For me it's good because I can work here , and work I shall. I applied at Starbucks but they said to call back on Sunday so I applied to Seatles Best and already got interviewed. Soon I will be on the coffee highway... Computer programmer post military service serving coffee... It doesn't get much better :)
Today I got a bus pass and went to a lookout at the top of a mountain called Diamond Head which had good views of Waikiki but tomorrow I will venture further and try to find more places to hike around. It's so weird here , I haven't quite gotten used to the ... well , Americans. The simplest thing like saying "Hi" while on a walking track totally throws people off and they don't know how to reply. Several times I tested it and only the older people really replied. Do you get nicer as you get older? In a couple of hundred years will we all be Chinese? Probably... But I will leave that question with you for further thought.

VIDEO: Angels can't complete ninth-inning rally, lose 6-3
September 21st, 2015, 7:59 pm by MARK CARLISLEThe Angels offense came alive in the ninth inning Monday in Houston, but it was too little too late. The Halos' two-out rally fell short, and they lost to the Astros 6-3.
The Angels lose a game in the wild card race, falling 31/2 behind Houston. They also fall a half game behind the Twins, whom they entered the day tied with.
The Angels entered the inning down 6-1.
Third baseman David Freese started the rally with a two-out double to center.
Then pinch hitter David Murphy, batting for Shane Victorino, hit a single that deflected off of the glove of shortstop Carlos Correa (first video), scoring Freese from second and cutting the lead to 6-2.

A Third 'Before Sunrise' Will Happen if Ethan Hawke and Richard Linklater Can Crack the Script
We've previously reported that a third film in the Before Sunrise series about Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy's wandering couple — who spend the night talking about life and love — was on the way. "All three of us have been having similar feelings that we're ready to revisit those characters," Hawke told French magazine AlloCine back in November. Now Ethan Hawke has told MTV that he's currently in Greece working on the new film with Richard Linklater. "We're here writing a third installment to Before Sunrise, the actor said. "If it works out, we'll film it, and if it doesn't, we won't. It's not really worth talking about. I'm just here developing."
Both Hawke and Delpy share writing credits with Linklater on the previous movies, so they aren't in Greece just for the love of the camera. They're working behind the scenes on the new installment as well, and Hawke sounded optimistic about the trio's progress. "It's super good," he said. "We're just here workshopping it and developing it, trying to create a great script." The couple has already explored Vienna and Paris, so hopefully this means Greece is their next stop.
Each movie has had nine years separating them, and we last saw the duo in their early thirties for Before Sunset. Hawke's Jesse was married with a son, and Delpy's Celine had a boyfriend. We'll drop the film's ending below in case you need a refresher, but brace for deep sighs and longing looks.
In the movie The Bye Bye Man, what is the name of the character played by Douglas Smith

By NEMS Daily Journal
HOUSTON, Texas – Jailed Texas financier R. Allen Stanford's trial date moves to January 2012, a federal judge said Wednesday.
Stanford was declared incompetent to stand trial earlier this year because of a prescription drug addiction and has been treated the past four months in a North Carolina federal prison hospital.
Stanford is accused of bilking investors out of $7.2 billion in a massive Ponzi scheme. His attorneys say he ran a legitimate business.
U.S. District Judge David Hittner ordered the trial to begin in January 2012 because doctors treating Stanford say he is still not competent to stand trial.
His trial in Houston was to begin Sept. 12 after being delayed from a Jan. 24 start.
Stanford's financial empire crashed in early 2009 under the weight of a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission investigation.
Some 50,000 investors in 100 countries lost their life savings and retirement funds.
Scores of Mississippians were among that number from doing business at Stanford offices in Tupelo, Jackson and Memphis.
Recently, the SEC said it believes many of them qualify for compensation through an investor-backed group. Details are still coming together about that ruling.
Indicted with Stanford were an Antiquan bank regulator and four Stanford executives, including Baldwyn natives Laura Pendergest-Holt and James M. Davis.

FolderLister - Ever wanted to print or email a directory listing of a certain folder in plain text format in Mac OS X? Yeah you can do it from the terminal but that's not what an ordinary Aqua user wants.
With FolderLister for Mac OSX you can drag any folder onto the FolderLister icon and in a text box you will get a full directory listing in plain text format.
You can set options to display full file infos, recursively list all subfolders and include hidden files.
So okay yes it's a wrapper for /bin/ls but many people don't know UNIX you know!
What's New
- Some bug fixes
- Universal Binary

For example a "Rebuild the orphan packages task force" -- but who will do that? And who will maintain them later during lifetime of FE6? And how long are we going to do that? Forever? I don't think that will work. Maybe we should remove the orphaned packages and add a meta-package that "Obsoletes" and thus removes all the orphans during yum update. Also not nice, but at least a bit better. Has anybody a better idea? > Further, there are some packages marked as orphans, which are not really > orphans. Yeah, I suspected something like that. But how to we find out which? The rebuild might help a bit here, too. At least gtkglarea2 and wesnoth seem to be orphaned according to owners.list, but they were both rebuild by somebody. /me looks closer gtkglarea2 -- Gerard Milmeister <gemi[AT]bluewin.ch> wesnoth -- Michael Schwendt <mschwendt[AT]users.sf.net> (sigh ;-) ) > And some have been added to Extras through the new package process > and appear as orphaned nevertheless, e.g. "hula"? Uh? Interesting. I more and more like the "rebuild by maintainer" solution -- we find a lot of stuff this way that needs a closer look or even "fixing". It's a sort of "Fedora Extras inventory and cleanup just in time for a new release". CU thl -- Thorsten Leemhuis <fedora leemhuis info>

The flag is on a pole. The only etiquette is that it is the star field is pointing to the end of the pole. Otherwise it would be up side down which some think is a distress call (that's an urban legion), but not actually wrong in flag etiquette. Nor is lowering it in the rain or at night (it should be illuminated at night).
The flag is properly displayed with the star field in the upper left.
Rotangus, I was going to comment on the non-Portuguese knitting technique myself, as well as how uncomfortable some of these girls look with the needles. Interesting reflection on teaching conformity.
I see at least five young ladies who left their needles at home or perhaps are not yet knitters: Bottom row right, third and fourth are wistful onlookers; top row right there are at least two who are air knitting, and two other girls in the center are waiting for needles, it seems.
Here's an excellent history of wartime knitting (note the Glenn Miller knitting song on the right).
I agreed with Michael L. after reading his comments because girl scouts always sing about everything (even John Jacob Jingleheimer Smith) so just for the halibut I put "knitting songs" in my search space and there are many of them from several eras which you can listen to if you care to although some were not around in 1942.
A neighbor who has a yarn & knitting shop had this comment:
"The left-handed method was not in favor in these days because it is the way the Germans knit. I know a lot of right-handed people who knit holding the yarn in their left hand. It is just a personal preference at this point, but in these days, it almost made a knitter a nazi."
Thank you, rotangus, for your fascinating, informative, and adult comment.
The mouths of most of these girls look as if they are saying something. I'm guessing they were singing while the picture was taken. Either that, or they're all talking over each other at once.
Some observations which may not be evident to non-knitters.
All of these girls are knitting right handed, although one is winding yarn with her left hand. In a group this large I'd expect to see at least one left-hander. However, in this era, left handers were usually taught to knit right handed, rather than working mirror image of right handers as they often do today.
Second, every one of these girls is using the throwing rather than picking method; holding their yarn in their right hand in US/UK style as opposed to the traditional around-the-neck, yarn-tensioned Continental style variant common in Portuguese heritage. So these girls are using the same method as the troop leader, rather than the style that some of them would have learned at home.
Finally, they are knitting sleeveless vests for sailors -- a very standard War Knitting item.
So this image says more to me than just girls knitting. It's telling a story of community/home front service during WWII; of inflexible teaching styles of the period; and of assimilation - adopting standard American ways rather than the traditions of their families.

- Degrees and Certifications Enhance Revenue Potential for Personal Trainers and Improve Safety
- The Value of Certification
- Sidebar: Organizations that Offer Personal Trainer Certifications
Personal trainers have a variety of backgrounds, from those with a single certification to those with multiple certifications and university degrees. Fitness facility operators have to decide which level of personal trainer best fits their needs and their members' needs.
A personal trainer with a degree is not necessarily more skilled than a personal trainer who has only a certification, says Robert Goldman, founder and president emeritus of the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), Chandler, AZ.
"There are some trainers without even a university degree that are very, very good," Goldman says. "But I think the more credentialed, the more education someone has, the more positive impact they can have on that club."
Personal trainers who lack the education specific to their profession not only hurt the industry but hurt their potential clientele as well, says Brian Oddi, a team member with NASM and an instructor in the department of sports and health sciences at American Public University (APU), Charles Town, WV. APU offers a bachelor of science degree in sports and health sciences with a concentration in exercise science, as well as a master's of science degree in sports and health sciences. Both Equinox and Sport & Health clubs have participated in APU career services programs, says Jay Richardson, manager of strategic partnerships, sports and fitness, for APU, which offers all of its courses over the Internet.
"To have the education on top of the certification within the field covering all aspects is vital," Oddi says. "I've seen trainers come to the gym with no foundation."
However, personal trainers with degrees may be overqualified for clubs that do not have the budget for degreed and certified trainers, says Amy Hyams, vice president of educational services at certifying educational body World Instructor Training Schools (W.I.T.S.), Virginia Beach, VA.

Grange hails Lloyd Knibb as world-class drummer
CULTURE Minister Olivia 'Babsy' Grange Friday hailed Lloyd Knibb as a world-class drummer and has encouraged young musicians to aspire to the standard set by the founding Skatalites member.
"Lloyd Knibb we will remember as a world-class drummer and the man who was largely responsible for the birth of the Ska beat," said Grange. "His Skatalites bandmates would tell you that Lloyd, who was an original member of the world-famous band, was the consummate drummer who never failed at his trade and delighted audiences with his drum solos."
Knibb, who was based in Boston, USA, died of liver cancer at his family home in Kingston on Thursday evening. He was 80.
Grange, who also has responsibility for entertainment, said she was deeply saddened by the news of the death of "another of Jamaica's great musicians" and said that Knibb was "a special member of perhaps the greatest band that Jamaica has produced".
His passing, she said, has left a void which will not be easily filled.
"I am encouraging young musicians though, especially drummers, to aspire to the standard set by Lloyd Knibb, a musician of pure class and a gentleman," said Grange.
She expressed sympathy to Knibb's widow, Enid; his five children, seven grandchildren and great-grandchild.

It's mere days until New Year's Eve and the hum around Dublin city is rising. Here's why
Parades, concerts, fireworks – Dublin knows how do to New Year's Eve in style. Last year, Dubliners amped up the party atmosphere with a two-day festival. But this year, it's even bigger.
This year, Dublin has another trick up its sleeve.
On 31 December, the city will not only celebrate the countdown to 2013, it will kick off a year long, country-wide, super-huge festival… Yes, it could only be The Gathering, which will get going spectacular style on New Year's Eve: this means a bigger, louder, and brighter festival than ever before.
As darkness descends, Dublin will execute a visual tour-de-force. A torch-lit procession of floats, illuminated torch bearers, fire breathers, towering stilt walkers and enthralling dancers will snake through the city streets creating the most extraordinary scene.
Think a friend might enjoy this article? Click to save and share
And that's just the beginning.
Glittering fireworks and massive projections onto Dublin's most beautiful architecture will follow the torch-lit extravaganza. Then, the outdoor Countdown Concert at the iconic College Green will become Party HQ, as the biggest names in Irish music will play their hearts out. You'll need a ticket for the concert, but don't worry if you don't have one as the whole city will feel like one massive street party.
For New Year's Day, try the Big Brunch – a family affair on "the morning after the night before". Located in Temple Bar's Meeting House Square, there will be face painting, balloon modelling, photo screening and delicious food stalls.
In Ireland, we just can't throw a party without a céilí (traditional dance), so bringing your dancing shoes for performances from traditional music groups in the afternoon.
NYE will be the biggest night of the year – of both years – and Dublin is place to experience it.
Sure, wasn't your New Year's resolution to enjoy yourself more? Where better to start…

WikiLeaks has released the first 200 of a cache of 5m emails obtained from the servers of Stratfor, a US-based intelligence firm.
The emails originated not from a whistleblower, but instead from a series of hacking attacks against Stratfor in December 2011, carried out by the online activist collective Anonymous.
Anonymous apparently passed the emails to WikiLeaks in the weeks following the attack. The whistleblowing website then recruited, according to its statement, 25 media partners to work on the document cache.
Stratfor describes itself as a provider of "strategic intelligence on global business, economic, security and geopolitical affairs", with a claimed 300,000 subscribers.
WikiLeaks said the documents contained details of the inner workings of the private intelligence agency, links between government and private intelligence, and commentary on WikiLeaks itself.
"The material contains privileged information about the US government's attacks against Julian Assange and WikiLeaks and Stratfor's own attempts to subvert WikiLeaks," the whistleblower website said.
"There are more than 4,000 emails mentioning WikiLeaks or Julian Assange. The emails also expose the revolving door that operates in private intelligence companies in the United States."
The initial release was said to contain information on measures taken to track activist and NGO activity for large companies, through media monitoring, and information on the financial sector.
Emails between the founder and Karl Rove, a senior advisor to George Bush, are among those released to date.
The cache also contains gossip between Stratfor staff, apparently originating from the 2008 presidential campaign of John McCain, that the senator was encouraged to take action against President Obama for alleged electoral fraud in two states.
Coca-Cola also seemingly engage Stratfor for background research against Peta activists in Canada ahead of the Vancouver Winter Olympics in 2010.
The emails also often detail the inner workings of a company which has proved a subject of fascination for online activists keen to expose private sector intelligence providers.
UK and overseas military officials seem to be among the site's customers, indicating future releases may include more on such individuals. A Guardian analysis of records published after the original Anonymous attack revealed the email account details of 221 UK military staff and 242 Nato officials.
However, some of information in the emails appeared weaker than the site's release would suggest. Alleged tracking of activist and hoaxing group the Yes Men by Dow Chemicals appeared to amount to little more than email monitoring.
Similarly, an email apparently giving Stratfor advanced warning of action by credit ratings agency Moody's in Ireland was instead from the independent analyst wing of the company – which is independent of the credit ratings side, and receives no information on its decisions ahead of time.
The emails published to date contain no redactions of information relating to individuals passing information to Stratfor, or anyone else, raising concern for the personal safety of some individuals in the cache.
One email, purportedly from a private security contractor, details an apparent assassination attempt on an individual in Libya, seemingly due to mistaken identity with a member of the country's transitional council.
The email details the surname of the targeted individual, and even coordinates of his house.
Key accounts linked to the Anonymous group were quick to support the WikiLeaks release after it was posted in the early hours of Monday morning, UK time.
One of the largest Anonymous-linked accounts on Twitter, @AnonymousIRC, put out a series of tweets within minutes seemingly confirming it was the source of the WikiLeaks release.
"We promised you those mails and now they'll finally be delivered. Five million (that's 5,000,000) emails at your pleasure," it said.
"There's a treasure trove of nasty details in those emails. We think there's something for everyone."
Stratfor released a statement condemning the release, but confirming it believed the emails were genuine and had originated from an attack on its servers.
"In December, thieves compromised Stratfor's data systems and stole a large number of company emails, along with other private information of Stratfor readers, subscribers and employees," the company said.
"This is a deplorable, unfortunate – and illegal – breach of privacy. Some of the emails may be forged or altered to include inaccuracies; some may be authentic. We will not validate either. Nor will we explain the thinking that went into them.
"Having had our property stolen, we will not be victimized twice by submitting to questioning about them."
WikiLeaks said it would continue publishing emails from the document cache over the following days and weeks.

Mustang Trunk Area 1964-2017
Though you frequently utilize it, when was the last time that you truly thought about the condition of your Mustang Trunk Area? After many years of stuffing cargo inside your Mustang trunk and slamming the door shut without any regard for its well-being, your original Mustang trunk parts are going to age rather quickly. If you are restoring your classic Ford Mustang from the ground-up or if you are looking to make improvements to the rear of your late-model muscle car, be sure to give your Ford Mustang trunk area the makeover that it deserves.

Trunk Area
When you load up at the grocery store or go on a major shopping spree at your favorite retail outlet, your biggest concern is likely getting all of your precious cargo home safely and in one piece. While some Ford Mustangs are not blessed with a backseat area with extra storage, every pony car features a reliable Mustang trunk area that acts a safe haven for your belongings. Obviously, the best way to protect your possessions is to make sure that your Mustang trunk area is secure and that no unwanted material can penetrate the inner workings of you pony car. While this may seem simplistic in theory, it is not always as easy as it sounds.
Your Mustang trunk area is loaded with numerous Mustang trunk parts that perform the simple, yet important task of securing the rear area of your muscle car. In addition to a lid, door latches, and various exterior decals, your Mustang trunk area features a sturdy floor mat and floor pan on the inside. Your Mustang trunk area's body & sheet metal and interior parts have an important symbiotic relationship. You cannot secure the items inside your Mustang trunk if the doors do not close, and your cargo will not stay in place if your Mustang trunk's floor pan has rusted out.
If you are unlucky enough to get rear-ended out there on the road, you are going to need to check on the condition of your Ford Mustang trunk area immediately following the collision. Outside of the Mustang bumper and the taillights, your Mustang trunk area is going to be the most negatively affected area of the car. If the metal Mustang trunk floor pan has been bent in any way as a result of the crash, it might be cheaper than to replace it all together. Similarly, if your Mustang trunk lid has been damaged from either a wreck or from repeated abuse from the elements, it would be wise to replace it along with your other Mustang exterior trunk parts as soon as possible.
Secure Your Trunk With Mustang Trunk Area Parts From CJ's
Whether it's as a result of damage or repeated use, your Mustang trunk parts can eventually run their course. Because the Mustang trunk area features distinct parts on both the inside and outside of the vehicle, it can be stressful determining which area of the trunk to attack first. Luckily for you, CJ Pony Parts offers all of the trunk parts for Mustangs that you could ever need! CJ's features Mustang trunk area parts for pony cars from 1964.5 all the way through the present day.
If you are in the process of restoring your Mustang's trunk area, obtaining a new Mustang trunk floor pan would be an excellent place to begin. CJ Pony Parts offers a wide variety of Mustang trunk floors and floor pans to accommodate First Generation pony cars of all years and models. If you are simply looking to replace a rusted out section of your floor rather than swapping your entire piece, CJ's offers direct-fit replacements for certain parts of your Mustang trunk floor. These floor sections are constructed from premium sheet metal and can be easily installed in the desired location. Keeping your floor clean is a great way to preserve the Mustang trunk area, and CJ's offers premium trunk floor mats that will allow you to do so.
If your Mustang trunk area's exterior could use some work, CJ's offers Mustang trunk lids and Ford Mustang side trunk floors. The lids are direct replacements for your factory parts, and can work alongside your factory mounting hinges and latches. The Ford Mustang side trunk floors mount to the driver or passenger side of the gas tank and meets up with the inside quarter panel. These aftermarket upgrades are made of sturdy metal and painted black in order to resist rust and corrosion. CJ's sells these Mustang side trunk floors either individually or as pairs.
Now that you have selected the correct Mustang trunk area parts for your muscle car, it is time to draw attention to the rest of your Ford Mustang's exterior. While you're on the site, feel free to take a look at CJ's array of Mustang fenders, floor pans, grilles, and more!

Thread: Shaolin Do History / Lineage
5/20/2004 11:46am, #11--
I can't find where Shaolin Do, as a system, came from! If it came out of the Fukien province temple by someone trained there just before the communist takeover, then I would expect to see at least one of the basic forms that were routinely taught there.
I see none. Not only that, I do not see similar or like movement of basic techniques.We are surrounded by warships and dont have time to talk. Please pray for us. One Somali Pirate.

Sorry most of that is gonna take more study on my part to be able to answer. As for the gi's the standard kungfu uniform is stereo typical to every kungfu movie we have ever seen. Most kungfu system from back then tend to wear robes that resemble gi's. And just for practicalities sake most kung fu outfits today arent really durable usually being made of silk or a light cotton blend. I mean who really wants to sweat and train in their best pajamas? Also what makes a style? Is it the name or what they wear? Or is it really the art they teach?
Are you a student of the system or just an outsider looking in? Just curious.

Actually the traditional kwoon would have a t-shirt and some pants that they would wear to train in. The only people who would wear robes are monks. As for the uniform, it really is the choice of the instructor, but I am just wondering why they would teach a chinese art in japanese clothing. Again this ties into my earlier question about the name as well as the resaoning behind not changing the name back as well as the lineage of the system.
Are you a student of the system or just an outsider looking in? Just curious.
Outsider looking in for now. Been studying up on them. You would be surprised at what you can find using google.I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

Traditional versus Contemporary Associate Master Tony Gray
Recently while "surfing" through a message board I ran across a posting questioning why the students in Lexington continue to wear gi's.
The answer is a simple one. It is to honor the tradition that was started by Grandmaster Ie Chang Ming. Grandmaster Ie used the Japanese gi's and belt system to disguise Shao-Lin away from the government officials in Indonesia. The government had outlawed all Chinese martial arts.
Grandmaster Ie was a man of great foresight; he realized that if the art was to continue to survive it needed to be "hidden" from the authorities, while still practicing right under their noses. So he made the decision to go away from the normal practice attire and started using the Japanese gi. To further more confuse the authorities he also implemented a belt system, again along the lines of the Japanese martial arts. The name was changed to Shao-Lin Do. When the authorities came by the school to visit, they saw a Chinese art being practiced, but using a Japanese name, uniform and belt system which left them with the impression that it was a Japanese art form.
When Grandmaster Sin The' came to the United States he carried on this tradition of wearing a gi and using the belt system for ranking purposes and to give those students some type of gauge as to where they had progressed to. Again, though it was mainly done to honor his teacher, whom he had gained all of his knowledge and skills from.
For those who want to use the Sams and say that if Shao Lin is a traditional Chinese art all the students need to wear them, I have a question. Have you done your research? If you have, you will know that those who practiced martial arts in the monasteries wore a gi like uniform and those that practiced outside of the monasteries wore their every day clothing. They did not have a special uniform to go out and practice in. Sams are a creation of the movie industry and what it wants to present as a traditional uniform.
As for the ranking system within Chinese Martial Arts, there are only four traditional levels.
1st Student, 2nd Disciple, 3rd Master, 4th Grandmaster. That was all; there were no belts, no sashes.
Everyone knew who was who and respected their elders and those who outranked them. This was practiced throughout all aspects of their lives from sleeping quarters to the eating halls, to the daily chores that needed to be done. Only when your master thought you worthy to move to the next room did you move into that room.
There have been statements made that some traditions need to be done away with or changed. My reply to that is. "If you forget about the traditions of the past, you have no compass for the future."
When I normally practice my material away from a formal class, I personally wear just a pair of gi pants and a t shirt.
When I first started Shoa Lin Do, Master Leonard made a statement to several of us who had just failed our first test. "It does not matter what belt you have around your waist, it only matters what you can do." His next statement still rings in my ears to this day.
"You can take my belt, my certificate and burn them; however you can not take my knowledge and skills away from me." I have always remembered that statement and when a student has not passed their pre-test I use it.
So the next time you want to say that you want to be a "traditional Chinese martial artist", just remember. The traditional Chinese martial artists wore their daily clothing or a gi like clothing and had no outward appearance of any rank.
~Note: I will not even mention the fact that their history section does not link the art to Chinese kung fu.
If you are going to keep up with your research I would recommend that you cross reference the dates given with the actual events of Chinese history. Also, I would question why they still use Japanese terms in a Chinese school. There is no reason to "hide" anymore. Also how can one hide a Chinese form from officials. Karate looked nothing like Chinese boxing. You can drape on a gi and use all the Japanese terminology you would like, but Shaolin Boxing and Karate did not resemble each other. I am pretty sure the government would have known that.

Also of note: Shaolin Do purports to teach double hook swords. Double hook swords are only found in the north, so if Shaolin Do is founded in the south, where did the double hook sword work come from?!?

--Shaolin-Do purports to teach everything.
I was told they contain the entire Bak-Mei system somewhere in the 3rd degree blackbelt smattering of forms. Throw out any chinese style to an avid SDer and you'll get "Oh yeah, we have (instert style here) at (instert belt level here)."

Anyone who claims to have the "entire" Bak-Mei system is suspect. I doubt the system exists in its entirety anywhere, it is extremely rare in and of itself.

--Bak mei has always interested me, but iI live in texas. Hearing about it will have to do... add to that as you said the suspicion of most places that teach it....
But I was using that as an example. They say they teach everything.

Potatoes 'a la importancia'
Ingredients for 4 people: 800g of potatoes 3 eggs 1 small onion 2 cloves of garlic 3 spoonfuls of flour 1/2 cup of olive oil 1 sprig of parsley 6 strands of saffron salt
Peel, wash and cut the potatoes into rounds approximately 1cm thick; season them. Put the flour in one dish and beat the eggs in another. Put the potatoes in the flour and then into the beaten egg. Fry in plenty of hot oil. Make a paste with the garlic, saffron, parsley and salt. Heat 3 spoonfuls of oil and cook the peeled and chopped onion until it begins to brown. Add 1 spoonful of flour, stir rapidly and add the paste, without stopping stirring. Put the potatoes in a casserole, pour the mixture you have prepared over them and add 2 cups of water or stock. Place on the heat and, when it begins to boil, correct the seasoning and cook on a gentle heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Take off the heat, sprinkle with chopped parsley and put into a fairly hot oven, letting them cook for another 5-10 minutes.
Serve in the same dish. You can also put some potatoes in their sauce on to each plate and sprinkle chopped parsley on top.

[…] Sea * Fever has "Bad News Day For Maritime Heritage And Professional Mariners". […]
On the other hand, the Elissa (remember Ike) is out on tour this week.
That Niagara could stop sailing would be a terrible blow to maritime history education and sail training in America. Countless professional tall ship crew have come from her volunteer ranks, and at the moment there is virtually no other vessel underway that comes anywhere near replicating her educational experience.
"Very bad news" is a gross understatement.

Grizzlies 103, Cavaliers 92: Memphis holds off late run
By Associated Press
Friday, March 8, 2013
(AP) Marc Gasol scored 22 points and the Memphis Grizzlies held off a late run for a 103-92 win over the Cavaliers on Friday.
Memphis, which strengthened its hold on the fourth spot in the Western Conference playoff race, has won 11 of 12 and is 12-4 since trading star forward Rudy Gay to Toronto on Jan. 30.
The Grizzlies' previous victory in Cleveland came on Nov. 29, 2003, LeBron James' rookie season with the Cavaliers.
Kyrie Irving, who missed Cleveland's morning shootaround with flu-like symptoms, scored a team-high 24 points.
Mike Conley and Jerryd Bayless each scored 17 points and Grizzlies pulled away after the Cavaliers cut the lead to 88-84 with 5:21 to play.

The meeting with Jesus on the road to Damascus, the Pope explained, "literally revolutionized his life. Christ became his raison d'etre and the profound inspiration behind all his apostolic labors... In truth, Christ Jesus is the apex of the history of salvation and, hence, the true point of reference in dialogue with other religions."
"Paul helps us to understand the absolutely fundamental and irreplaceable value of the faith," said the Holy Father, quoting the Apostle's words: "we have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the Law." Being justified, the Holy Father continued, "means being made righteous, in other words being accepted by God's merciful justice and...being able to establish a much more authentic relationship with our fellows."
In the light of his meeting with Christ, Paul, who was not a man who had lived outside the Law, understood "that he had been seeking to construct his own justice, and that with that justice he had lived for himself. He understood that it was absolutely necessary to give a new direction to his life... Before the cross of Christ, the extreme expression of His sacrifice, no one can boast of themselves, of their own justice."
"Reflecting upon the meaning of justification not by works but by faith we have come to the second defining component of Christian identity," said Pope Benedict. Indeed, Christian identity has two elements: "not seeking oneself by oneself, but receiving oneself from Christ and giving oneself to Christ," and "participating personally in Christ's own story, to the point of immerging oneself in Him and sharing both His death and His life."
"For Paul," he concluded, "it is not enough to say that Christians are baptized or that they are believers. For him, it is equally important to say that they are 'in Christ Jesus.'"
"That which we, as Christians, are, we owe it only to Him and to His grace. And because nothing and no one can take His place, then to nothing else and to no one else do we pay the homage we pay to Him. No idol must contaminate our spiritual universe. Otherwise, instead of enjoying the freedom we have acquired, we would fall into a form of humiliating slavery, the Pope concluded. "Our radical devotion to Christ and the fact that we 'are in Him' must infuse us with a sense of complete trust."

House passes far-reaching anti-abortion bill
The Republican-led House has passed a far-reaching anti-abortion bill, giving conservatives a claim to progress in their campaign against legal abortions and Democrats another reason to claim that the Republican agenda is anti-women.
The measure to restrict abortions to the first 20 weeks after conception has no future in the Democratic-led Senate and the White House has issued a veto threat. But it could still exert influence, both in next year's GOP primaries and in future court battles challenging the 1973 Supreme Court decision affirming a woman's right to end a pregnancy.
The House bill mirrors 20-week abortion bans laws passed by some 10 states. Most states allow abortions up to when a fetus becomes viable, generally considered to be around 24 weeks after conception.
The bill passed 228-196.

- Make sure your accounts are set up and optimized on all the social networks where your customers hang out ... Facebook and Twitter, Instagram ... and perhaps even Foursquare or Pinterest.
- Give your fans a peak behind the curtain to create a more personal connection to your business prior to SBS.
- Engage your followers: post pictures of your team getting your business ready for the holidays; run a contest (and publicize the winner on Small Business Saturday); generate conversation with questions like "what makes the perfect gift"?; create a fun facebook photo album for SBS.

Who is a journalist? : journalism in the age of blogging
Knight, Alan (2008) Who is a journalist? : journalism in the age of blogging. Journalism Studies, 9(1), pp. 117-131.
As part of the first-ever World Journalism Education Congress (WJEC), attracting 440 journalism and mass communication educators and professionals from 44 countries, and held in Singapore on June 26-28, 2007, panelists Alan Knight, Cherian George, and Alex Gerlis presented a lively debate on "Who Is a Journalist." Knight argued that Journalism paradigms are in transition. Bloggers are providing competition through their often eye-witness reports. Quality blogs are influencing journalism practices. Knight argued that journalists must adapt to and embrace the Internet. Gerlis proposed that when we now ask "Who Is a Journalist", the answer is no longer anyone who is employed as journalist. The answer is that potentially, anyone and everyone can be a journalist. George warns again uncritically invoking professional standards as the dividing line that separates journalists from non-journalists

you were probably one of the few who bought it tbh
no sense producing something that no one will buy. there's a threshold where games become unappealing to publishers, and snooker probably found itself in it.
increasing development costs that don't correlate with demand levels.

Considering you can play better flash snooker and pool games on the Internet, just seems stupid to make them for console. Its a very niche sport.

In it, but not of it. TPM DC
Top Democratic Rep Calls For Anthony Weiner's Resignation
Democrats have stayed publicly silent on Weiner's future as a member of Congress since he admitted to a series of explicit online relationships with numerous women over the years. Schwartz' statement comes after Andrew Breitbart saw to it that a image of what he says is Weiner's fully exposed penis made it onto the Internet Wednesday.
"Having the respect of your constituents is fundamental for a member of Congress," Schwartz told the website. "In light of Anthony Weiner's offensive behavior online, he should resign."
Politico notes that Sen. Mark Pryor (D-AR) also called for Weiner's resignation today. Former DNC chair Tim Kaine, who's running for Senate in Virginia, also publicly called on Wednesday for Weiner to leave Congress.
On Tuesday, Democratic leaders made it clear they weren't happy with Weiner following his confession. In response to a question from TPM, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told reporters he'd tell Weiner to ""call somebody else" if he asked for advice on what to do next.

I was wondering if it was around the time of WW II. Not the recording but what he was writing about as Wiki said the poem is from a collection covering 1926–1977 I'd never heard of him until hearing play here. I need to check out his poetry more... | |
