The main focus of my thesis is to build a recommendation engine. Nowadays this topic has become more relevant as companies have been trying to get to know the customers and customize their offers.
Customization can be a real competitive advantage on various markets. Recommendation engine enables companies to track and record the behavior of their consumers and target them with unique offers.
I plan to create an application which can send text messages to the players of an online gaming site with special offers. I have daily contact with the company and I am allowed to access and use the necessary data since I am an intern at the company.
The application will be created for an online computer game company. The application will store the different activities of the user. A personal database will be available about all users. Based on that information we will be able to analyze the different user's behavior, and target them with different advertisements. The database will be based on the SAP HANA in memory database solution.
As a first step I will gather the business requirements, decide the applicable technical architecture which includes defining the components and interfaces to implement the solution. As a next step the engine will be developed and validated. Different models will be build first with HANA built-in libraries, then with the help of R data mining language. The final solution will be evaluated and next steps will be defined as roadmap items for the next version.
The thesis will help SAP's customer to gain insight into their customers purchasing behavior. This will benefit the enterprise and enable them to leverage cross selling or upselling opportunities.

Social networking, service-orientation, virtualisation of the technology infrastructure and new ranges of physical devices, etc., are indicators that technology offers a new series of possibilities that society has now begun to use. However, unfortunately only a very small number of businesses have started exploiting the new opportunities on offer. This article attempts to identify what the effects of applying these technological advances would have on organisations. Download
Adopting Semantic Technologies for the Enterprise for Knowledge Management
One of the most important consequences of the development of the Information Society in recent years is the almost exponential growth of digital information. Growth in the number of ICT users, the fact that it is so easy to digitize information, new trends such as Web 2.0 where each user adopts the role of content publisher, etc., have taken us to a situation in which information has ceased to be a precious or scarce resource. Today, in many cases it is an excess of information that has become a problem, which makes the adequate management of knowledge one of the major challenges in the field of ICT. Semantic technologies are thus recognized as the great challenge to address this situation, to such an extent that the Semantic Web is being referred to as Web 3.0. This article looks at the results of the Value-IT Project (co-funded by the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme) on the outlook for semantic technologies in the corporate world. For this project, more than 700 interviews were conducted with IT specialists from various industrial sectors, both face-to-face and by telephone. A field test was also carried out to measure the efficiency of these technologies within the scope of knowledge management. Thus, the results presented in this article provide a realistic view of the many possibilities these technologies will have within the corporate world in the future. Download
Trends in Distributed Curatorial Technology to Manage Data Deluge in a Networked World
Since 2008, the word "curation" has become a buzzword among many social technology bloggers as one of the next big technology trends for 2010 and beyond. This is in part because we are no longer able to consume the plethora of information we are now generating leading to curatorial overload. To further understand why the concept of curation has gained traction, I collected and analyzed over 100 web artefacts pertaining to curation in the Information Age. In this article, I provide excerpts from these web artefacts to explain the value of curation in a networked world. I also present a working model of current curatorial activities, and then describe the rise of "socially-distributed curation" to emphasize the growing tendency to value social curation and facilitate curation in distributed ways.

SOA and Cloud Technologies, Two Pieces of the Same Puzzle
This paper describes the relationship between cloud computing technologies and Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). We try to explain how cloud computing does not replace SOA architectures. Quite the contrary, cloud systems are being built using the same basic guidelines associated with SOA (simple, specific and standard-based APIs). This paper also discusses how systems built using these same SOA principles can benefit from cloud services, and how SOA conventions can be applied to develop more complex systems from the combination of basic cloud services. Download
Virtualization as Support for SOA and Cloud Computing
In this paper we present the relevance of virtualization as an enabler for Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Cloud technologies and how, in turn, the success of cloud computing is now fostering virtualization, with better and more cost-effective hardware support in several key system components. In the case of processors, with interrupt virtualization and redirection, extended page tables or support for live migration of virtual machines. In the case of storage systems, with SANs (Storage Area Networks) being more ubiquitous and merging with traditional networks with technologies like iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface) and FCoE (fiber-channel over Ethernet). In the case of networks, with support in the latest switches for network cards that serve multiple virtual machines at once, providing unified management of virtual and physical machines, as well as dynamic relocation of virtual machines.

Competitiveness and Technological Development in Europe - The Next 10 Years: Interview with Neelie Kroes, Vice President of the European Commission and European Digital Agenda Commissioner
In these times of uncertainty, many of us are concerned that Europe may be losing the technological race and, consequently, a large part of our competitiveness, to other technologically powerful blocks like North America and the Asian countries. This is also a major concern for the European Commission. Thus, in 2009, the then Commissioner for Competition, Neelie Kroes, received an explicit mandate from the President of the Commission, José Manuel Durão Barroso, to develop and implement a long-term European Digital Agenda (2010-2020) with a strategic vision and wide-ranging powers. Ms. Kroes's answers in the extensive interview she granted us just before the texts of the Agenda were published outline a series of joint and coordinated actions aimed at safeguarding European competitiveness through the use of Information and Communication Technologies. Download
Cloud Computing and Web Research: Interview with Ricardo Baeza-Yates, Vice President of Yahoo! Research for Europe, Middle East and Latin America
With a perspective born of many years of research into Internet-related matters, Ricardo Baeza-Yates gives us his vision of Cloud Computing as an evolution of the distributed systems paradigm. In fact, he even tells us that the interdisciplinarity which is called for in the construction of the Internet of Services around these new visions is inherent to any construct built around the Internet and the Web. Download
The Present and Future of the Web: Interview with Bert Bos, Co-inventor of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
The Web is such a rich multi-way communication medium that it is constantly giving rise to new ideas, concepts and developments either in the field of communications or in the business world. Concepts like Web 2.0, Contextual Web, SaaS, Cloud, etc. have appeared lately, making it more difficult to envision where we are, how they interrelate to each other, and what the most important trends are for the future. Only an expert like Bert Bos can answer such complex questions, providing the deep insights that readers will find in this interview. Download
Cloud Computing and Software Services: Interview with Simon Davies, Solution Architect Specialising in Microsoft Windows' Azure Cloud Platform
With the vision of one who works for a company with a strong commitment to the concepts inherent to Cloud Computing, Simon Davies explains the various conceptual and technological aspects which are appearing on the back of these newly emerging visions. Although his answers reveal an underlying degree of enthusiasm towards these visions, we can also see a laudable desire to "distance himself" from those who, when presented with a new way of approaching things, tend to simply jump on the bandwagon regardless of whether the new way is right or wrong.

So, you want to win big cash money on Lotto 649, right? You can just think about the liberty. Well, you know that chances of winning the Lotto 649 jackpot are 1-in-14-million, right? Winning is simply a dream. Or perhaps is it?
This short article gives you free tips and strategies to win big cash money on Lotto 649. You will find stuff that you could do this to improve your odds. But beware, giving you better odds doesn't ensure that you may win. So only bet what you could find a way to lose.
The most effective tips and techniques to winning a lot of money will be to boost the number of Lotto 649 tickets that you've a claim on. There are 2 approaches to do this: 1. Buy more tickets; or 2. Develop a lottery pool.
Allow me to explain further. A lotto max winning numbers ticket in Canada costs $2. If you spend $2 and buy only one ticket, the chances of you winning are 1-in-14-million. If, instead, you buy two tickets, your chances are bettered exponentially to 1-in-7-million. Just one single extra ticket increases your odds of winning the jackpot by way of a huge margin. Now, suppose your financial allowance for each draw is $10. That means you can buy five tickets. The likelihood of winning will be 1-in-2.8-million. Greater, right? yes, needless to say.
But betting more income can be a no brainer, That is not an excellent strategy. It's just a method to lose more fat money. This is where lottery pools be important. There's no better lottery playing tip rather than join or produce a lottery pool. Using a lottery pool, the likelihood of winning the jackpot increase big-time. As an example, let's say you've got a pool of ten players, each using a budget of $10 per draw. That's $100, which would buy 50 tickets. What is your opinion your chances could be in the event you bought fifty Lotto 649 tickets? 1-in-280,000. That's much better than you could do this playing by yourself. So, collect some friends, family, or colleagues and make up a lottery pool; it's best shot at winning the jackpot.
Needless to say, there are lots of pundits that will give you weird tips and methods to win big cash funds on Lotto 649, like betting only on odd numbers or making sure that your entire chosen numbers soon add up to 113, or other nonsense that way. However the only true method to enhance your odds are to get more tickets as well as the the easy way accomplish that will be part of a lottery pool. Allowing the pool is free; all you need to do is buy the tickets.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow)- Hawaii Meals on Wheels' annual gala, the nonprofit organization's largest fundraising event of the year, will be held at The Willows Restaurant on Thursday, September 30, 2010, beginning at 5:30 p.m. The theme of this year's event is "Escape to Old Hawaii`."
"We continue to receive more and more requests for meals to be delivered to homebound older adults and those with disabilities," said Claire Shimabukuro, Hawaii` Meals on Wheels executive director. "As part of the community's safety net, we've been able to carry on our mission through the generosity of our supporters who share our concern about access to proper nutrition for older adults. We'll be celebrating their aloha spirit that hearkens back to the days of old Hawaii`."
There will be a number of hula halau, ukulele performances and other entertainment at The Willows Restaurant, a venue that provides the perfect backdrop for this year's theme. A silent auction, casino games, face painting, magician performances, and tarot and palm readers will round out the evening's festivities.
Virtually all of the money raised by Hawaii` Meals on Wheels – 90 percent -- goes toward program support and meals; only 10 percent of expenses are used for fundraising.
An average meal costs Hawaii` Meals on Wheels about $10. Clients are asked for a contribution to help defray half the costs of the meals. Some are able to make a contribution, while others are not able to give. Hawaii` Meals on Wheels relies on donations from corporations, foundations and individuals to help subsidize the costs of the meals.

Halloween 2014, Family Style
I love the creativity of costumes and now that I have a life-size doll, I get to include him in the fun! Even prior to becoming pregnant I thought about this costume for the three of us. So happy how it turned out. We skipped doing anything for Halloween the year prior since he was so little and it's always such a cold day, but this year turned out to be warm enough not to need bulky coats, which would have killed our look! We took a stroll down Queen Anne Avenue for the annual trick-or-treating celebration and were the delight of many. Totes' costume was purchased but the rest of ours came from our own closet. I sewed the trim on a red shirt, loose enough so I could removed it later. The yellow trim was also loosly attached to a black pencil skirt. I found his corn pipe at a little boutique in Poulsbo earlier this year, it's real!
What did your family dress up as this year? #popeye #oliveoyl #sweetpea #mylifesizedoll

Computers and the affects in our lives
Computers have been in our world for centuries.
I depend a lot on my computer; I use it at home and work.
Computers have an effect in many of our lives. It provides entertainment at home, you can communicate faster and we use it as a part of everyday life.
First off all, computers offer different types of entertainment from home our own home. Now we are able to watch movies from our own computer without having to go to a theater. Music is another type of entertainment. We can save and hear our favorite music at any time. We can also play games. There are learning games or just for fun games.
Second, we are able to communicate faster to anyone in the world. Emails are one of the most frequently used because we get our messages in seconds. In addition most computers come with webcams and this allows us to communicate and visualize with multiple people at once. This is a great tool, especially if you want to talk and see family members that live far away from home. Instant massaging is really popular too because it's faster than emails. With IM's, we can send notes back and forth to family, friends and co-workers.
Lastly, we use computers now as a part of our everyday life. For instance online banking, with online baking we can keep track of our accounts from home. This saves time and no more trips to the bank. We also shop from home; we can shop for clothes, electronics and sometimes even for home services, like internet and cable. Finally, we can use our computers to search for jobs. Most employers placed their help wanted online.
Having a computer has affected us in every aspect of our lives but for our own good. It has many advantages that we should use and learn. With all these advantages, why not have a computer?

Al Wasl volleyball champions in Arab Women's Sports
Sharjah: Al Wasl Club has emerged champions in volleyball event of the Arab Women Sports Tournament (AWST), defeating Sharjah 3-2 in the final at the sports hall of the Sharjah Women Sports Foundation (SWSF) on Sunday.
Players of both clubs brought their best game at the very onset of the match, scoring points almost simultaneously. As the first set continued, Sharjah emerged the better team, winning it 25-22.
In a bid to make up for the loss of the first set, the Al Wasl ladies fought back and took an early lead with an initial second set score of 5-0. Sharjah tried to get back on track and after two time-outs, Al Wasl continued their scoring carnival that gave them the second set with a 15-point score difference of 25-10.
It was critical for both clubs to win the third set and they approached it with caution. Despite an otherwise winning show by Sharjah, Al Wasl raised their game to win 25-21 in a close finish.
In the fourth period, Sharjah Sports Club was seen competing with all their might to make up for their loss. This gaining of momentum and the extra push worked in their favour as they managed to win the fourth period with a score of 25-20 points, levelling the set score to 2-2.
In the decider, Al Wasl showed an unmistakable flair. They did not give Sharjah too many opportunities to score and had the last laugh at 15-4.
The coronation and closing ceremony of volleyball competition was held in the presence of Shaikha Hayat Bint Abdul Aziz Al Khalifa, Head of AWST Follow-up and Supervisory Committee and Member of Bahraini Olympic Committee; Nada Askar Al Naqbi, Deputy Chairperson of AWST Supreme Organising Committee, Head of its Executive Committee and Director General of SWSF; Ibrahim Abdul Malek, Secretary General of the General Authority for Youth and Sports among others.

Sweet awakenings when the music gets into the sheets at the end of the dream, flying along the corridor, from the zither in the living-room, laying a carpet to the coffee: an espresso, washed my face in the mirror already, a smile popped into the music, the papers on the tidy desk, the desk by the window, the window that frames the meadow, the lake, the library, the classroom buildings…
I close my eyes and I see the students passing by: they greet me smiling in their way to the classrooms, where I enter and greet them as I've just greeted now my parents, brothers and sister: I wake up this sunny day in Sevilla, this last holiday's morning before coming back, tomorrow, to Changchun.
In my country, in my city, in my home my window frames a river and a park, the park in which I used to play when I was little. And my desk is also by the window. Together with a shelf filled with books, pencils, some pictures and also an atlas.
In that atlas I used to dream travels when I was young. Farther and farther trips: my eyes toke me to
My eyes went forward in the map. It was so exciting to imagine the landscapes and the streets of that far and unknown countries like India or Mongolia, places that I have overflown these last years in my way to China: the Himalayas and the Gobi desert, to different entries to the Middle Kingdom, that country that in my map was far away, almost on the right edge of the page, as in my country books show Spain in the middle.
So life toke me to China, to Jilin, to Changchun, to that window that showed me in January and will show me tomorrow -March- a snowed landscape, all white, the frozen lake, nude trees and the students who walk to the classrooms or the dining-room, where I sit with them if it's not the weekend and Sophia is at home. After a kiss, Sophia and I speak sometimes Spanish, sometimes Chinese.
Sophia, who every Saturday and Sunday morning wakes me up with her zither, says we live always telling our lifes to ourselves. All life is memories. From the coffee when you wake up, every past moment is remembered, never exactly as it was, always subjectively, interpreted and reinterpreted. Every conversation, every book, every movie, trip or song, everything which makes us be as we are, is a memory that we keep for a life that every new day we tell to ourselves.
Maybe that's why, after all these years in such a different country and culture like
Today is Sunday, my holidays finish, a new semester is going to begin and it is now time to remember: I arrived in
Every day I used to walk alone, I was afraid to be cheated in the market or to get in my table a dish that I would never know what it was. Make the people understand me was impossible when I tried to pronounce the name of a dish. I also wasn't used to have the waiters standing close to me, staring and waiting for my choice. They didn't understand that I just needed some minutes, I wanted to see all the pictures and think, I would call them later.
And so lonely days passed by, days of always asking for the same dish, days of choosing the supermarket close to my home as my favorite place to stay, observing shelves with things I didn't dare to buy, showcases filled of dishes: meat and vegetables in many colors, little trays filled with small dried fishes and shrimps. The ones I used to buy and eat without cooking, until I discovered them in the soups, the soups at the end of the lunch instead of the sweet desserts that we have in my home.
And so followed weeks of not talking to others, greeting with the smile, pointing to dishes and numbers, not walking far away from home, taking longer and longer naps. Missing. Walking around streets of an alien world to me, among people for me without name, streets without name, squares without name, dishes without name. Sad weeks until the classes started: one Monday I climbed that stairs, to the corridor, to that classroom, and the door, and so different thirty faces, students from such a far country and culture… people though who said "hola" (hello in Spanish), asked "¿cómo estás?" (how are you?), laughed with me, called "lápiz" to the pencil, "folio" to the paper, "cielo" to sky. Same as my dad does, as my mom, my brothers and sister…
Always now in the first day, every new semester, I remember that class, I talk about it to my students, they listen, smile, and whisper comments that now I do understand, 因为在现我听得懂,很多东西对我来说都有了名字,四年来我学会了很多中文词语,也保存了许多回忆..... 回忆赋予了这个国家另一种意义,在这里的经历也成了回忆,许许多多的回忆,所有的保存在我记忆深处的回忆都是生活的礼物。
Memories that decorate my wall here in Sevilla, pictures that I introduce to my family: 长春的净月潭公园, ("Jingyue", mom), close to the campus and in which I toke these photos, can you see? Same place, same frame, the four seasons, different colors. And the lake in the top of Changbai mountains, and an early walk by the riverside in
II. A Sunny Morning In
It's always so special the first morning, when I'm back. So beautiful to open my eyes and see others, still closed because she's sleeping, and her lips, lips that told me yesterday how much they missed me. 鲁郁 will wake up a little later today, her 古筝 notes will give me a good morning soon, but now I stand up in the silence and come close to the window, this window that I have also missed.
It's been only a month and a half and everything is the same.
Now I see the students walk. The new semester is about to begin and the first homework will be to write about their holidays. It's beautiful to read what they write, see how the ones who some months ago, maybe one year ago, still weren't able to introduce themselves, are now able to touch you or make you laugh in this new language.
The first day of class I will give them all a 100, the maximum score. After that, they will have to write in a paper why do they deserve that score, how is the best version of themselves, the version who deserves that award. And their aim this semester will be to become this great version that they have described.
I think it's easy to understand that I like being a teacher, and that I love to do it in
Being a teacher is what takes me to send these positive speeches. Knowing that every week more than hundred students listen to me is a real responsibility. I have meanwhile realized that not only a teacher, but everybody, is always surrounded of people who look and listen. And this we learn from Confucius: let's we all be a good example for all the others. In life, in our studies (sometimes so hard). So I have to say: thank you 鲁郁 for your help, for all the words to call things in Jilin's beautiful life: 谢谢,because… 我中文写得很慢,我必须思考很久,但是爱是一种理由,我的爱人帮助我,鼓励我;爱拥有一个女孩的名字。所以鲁郁现在是文化,是音乐,是爱,是吉林,是长春,也是中国。现在她正在这里弹古筝,一个崭新一天开始的地方,阳光明媚的长春。

Micropayments have become increasingly prominent in mainstream e-commerce. Apple's iTunes model has changed the way music is consumed, helping to create an entire generation of youths who would rather download individual songs than purchase entire albums.
And with micropayments having become so widespread in mainstream ecommerce, many people in the adult entertainment industry have been weighing the pros and cons of implementing micropayment models for erotica.
Studies have shown that an increasing number of consumers are more willing to pay for digital objects in incremental payments rather than shell out large sums for subscriptions.
The adult website membership model made countless webmasters rich, and when consumers are billed every month for access to content, that is a recurring profit steam — even with fees for transactions.
Micropayments, however, can be sporadic, making fees a tougher pill to swallow. Mitch Farber, founder and CEO of NETbilling, noted that with credit card sales, micropayments can be cost-prohibitive for adult webmasters because of the fees.
Nonetheless, the demand for micropayments is showing no signs of decreasing in e-commerce — and some adult companies have responded by offering micropayment options. One example is CFSelect.com, the gay-oriented Corbin Fisher's micropayment site. VendContent.com, an ecommerce video platform that debuted in early 2014, has been offering adult webmasters a micropayment option for their content.
Cathy Beardsley, president and CEO of SegPay, asserted that webmasters will need to find ways to make micropayments profitable despite the challenges. "Studies have shown that an increasing number of consumers are more willing to pay for digital objects in incremental payments rather than shell out large sums for subscriptions," Beardsley observed. "This seems to be the model of success for the gaming market and can be translated to adult program owners. I believe the adult market will head in this direction, provided program owners are able to turn the micropayment into a larger purchase or longer term membership. The use of a wallet or some form of tokenization for purchases would definitely help the cost of handling micropayments."
The fact that micropayments are so popular in mainstream e-commerce doesn't necessarily make them as profitable as older sales models. For example, CD sales are way down in the music industry while downloads of individual songs are way up — and there is a lot more profit in selling an entire CD than selling two or three of an album's songs as digital downloads. And like the music industry, the adult entertainment industry is looking for creative ways to adapt to the micropayments model.
"Micropayments provide a great way for a consumer to take a snippet of content without much risk or cost," Beardsley explained. "For webmasters, hopefully, that snippet will turn into much bigger purchases or membership in the future. A big disadvantage to adult companies is from a cost perspective.
The premium applied by acquirers for high-risk adult transactions makes it very difficult to process a very low one-time micropurchase. The key is to bundle multiple purchases into a single checkout or set up a token-based checkout where consumers are loading an account and then using a simple EZ click checkout to make small micro-purchases."
According to Farber, selling blocks of electronic tokens may be one of the possible ways that adult webmasters can make micropayments more profitable. The tokens, Farber said, could be used for a micropayment now and additional micropayments later. But Farber said that while that approach works well with "loyal purchasers," it doesn't work well with a new customer or an inconsistent customer who is not willing to commit to future purchases.
Asked to identify some of the steps that online adult companies will need to take to make the micropayments model profitable for them, Beardsley replied: "Creating programs in which consumers can bundle smaller or micro-purchases to a larger single payment or convert the micropurchase to a bigger purchase or membership down the road. We have a very successful client with a cam program that has used this strategy to build their business. They focus on acquiring consumers through lower price point sales and turning those consumers into customers that make bigger purchases or set up long-term memberships."
The ICM Registry has had a micropayment system in the works for .xxx sites. In June, ICM CEO Stuart Lawley told XBIZ that the system would be "like iTunes meets PayPal." But the company declined to comment on any specific plans for 2015.
Gary Jackson, managing vice president of sales and Internet markets for CCBill, said that adult companies offering micropayments in multiple countries will need to be flexible when it comes to a country or region's billing preferences. "The best option for a business is to test payment types, either from one provider or from multiple providers, to know the market," Jackson explained. "A few trickling sales compared to the effort to market to a specific market may not make business sense, and you should be able to adapt quickly to the changes."
Octav Moise, CEO of Paxum, noted that companies need to keep alternative billing methods in mind when it comes to micropayments. "Throughout 2014," Moise observed, "alternative payments and mobile billing have continued to experience worldwide growth in all markets, including the adult industry."
Offering micropayments as an option doesn't necessarily mean that an adult company is giving up on the membership / subscription model.
Jason Gibson, Corbin Fisher's founder and CEO, has stressed that CFSelect.com is meant to "supplement" its core site, not replace it. And many of the webmasters who are offering micropayment options are hoping that if consumers like the content enough, they might decide to upgrade to a monthly subscription eventually.
"How and why an adult merchant would use micropayments is very similar to the mainstream merchant," Beardsley emphasized. "At the end of the day, it all comes down to which merchant has the lowest cost structure to support micropayments and a program that can convert those small purchases into larger, more profitable purchases down the road. Adult webmasters that can utilize this sales strategy will have the most success."

Ranchi, July 13: Residents of state's mining areas will get drinking water, sanitation, health and education, chief minister Raghubar Das said today during a review meeting at Project Building.
Chairing the meeting, Das sounded out focus areas for the district mineral foundation (DMF) trusts in mining districts, which are supposed to use funds of an extra 30 per cent levied on mining royalties to implement projects under the Pradhan Mantri Khanij Kshetra Kalyan Yojana.
Development commissioner Amit Khare, after today's meeting, told The Telegraph that DMF funds would be used in project-affected mining areas, with drinking water, health and schools and sanitation being priorities.
According to DMF provisions, mining firms will pay 30 per cent of its royalty sum extra from January 12, 2015, which will go to the trust of respective districts. For every Rs 100 a mining district gets, it will get Rs 30 over and above it to spend on work under DMF. Read More

Target a Smaller, Better Defined Market
Posted on : 20-04-2012 | By : Cathy | In : Uncategorized
Effective branding often means targeting a smaller, better defined market with a much more focused message, says William Arruda, head of the personal branding consultancy Reach. "Although it seems counterintuitive, the smaller you make your target market, the greater your chances of success."
For those in the corporate world, personal branding is a natural part of the job-hunting process—particularly for someone mapping out a long-term career trajectory. According to Arruda, it can also make sense to tend to your personal brand within your corporate environment, though the territory gets a little tricky when he describes your co-workers as your "competition."
"Many executives feel they need to conform to business norms when they go to work, but this prevents building a brand," Arruda wrote in a recent Career Journal article for the Wall Street Journal. "In the new world of work, those who stand out succeed, so put your brand on everything you do. Whether you're making a presentation, in a meeting or writing a report, don't leave your brand at home. Ask yourself how you can connect your brand to every situation."
No matter where you're building your personal brand, a critical component of communicating it is likely to happen on the Internet. Although the importance of branding has been known for decades in the large corporate arena, where billions of dollars get spent each year in "brand building" campaigns, it is the Web that has driven the surge of interest in branding at the personal level. It eliminates many traditional barriers to commerce while reinforcing the word-of-mouth value of that special something that makes each business—each person—unique, i.e., its brand.

I'm pretty sure this is an incredibly unsanitary activity in a sterile environment. Come on guys, be professional!
Enjoy the comic!
I have an ex who's just like Javier.
Loved it at first when I didn't know any better. Hated every minute of it in the end when he used me as an object then moved away with someone else with less than 2 weeks notice with someone he had apparently been seeing for 6 months prior but only introduced me 3 weeks before they went eloping together. But they're both swingers too so I guess it suits them…
Love the comic though.
It's all about communication though. Can't expect to keep a connection if there is none.
Oh! He was serious?! XD
Ok, that backside on Javier is just SUPER. F*CKING. FINE. Very nice work.
On a related note, that escalated quickly.
Is no one going to address the hilarious expressions of Javier's Snake tails? I mean, the expressions are hilarious, one's totally like 'What's going on here?" and the other's all annoyed and like, "Seriously guys?"
Noticed, but totally spaced on commenting on it xD
Sex before a long day of work is probably good for them and other people.
Forgot to mention earlier – it's nice to see how the snakes actually blend into Javier's "tail". Neato.
I fucking knew it, but it seems Javier being a bottom? I guess he's a switch?
I hope a physical book is made soon.
All in all I get the feeling that Javier doesn't like bottoming for this guy too much. And neither does his tail
At least Javier and that bird are having fun.

I saw us in a dream,
We were still together,
Everything was perfect, everything was great,
U were smiling.I had never seen your face radiant.
I just realised that we never see ourselves,our faces in our own dream.
Have you?
I was really happy,but i never know if I was smiling or not
Because maybe somewhere in there whole conciouss/subconscious stuff I knew it was a dream.I knew we could never be together.
Guess there is no such thing as a happy of good dream,right?

Federal Grants
Pell Grant
A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. To qualify for a Pell grant, undergraduate students must demonstrate financial need, attend school at least half time, and be making satisfactory academic progress.
To determine eligibility, a student needs to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each academic year at www.fafsa.ed.gov.The U.S. Department of Education uses a standard formula to evaluate the information reported on the FAFSA and the formula produces an Estimated Family Contribution (EFC). The EFC will determine if a student is eligible for a Pell Grant.
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
An FSEOG is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need-that is, students with the lowest expected family contribution – and gives priority to students who receive Federal Pell Grants. FSEOG doesn't have to be paid back.
To determine eligibility, a student needs to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
There is no guarantee every eligible student will be able to receive an FSEOG. Students at each school will be awarded these funds based on fund availability.
State Grants
Tuition Assistance Program (TAP)
The New York State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) helps eligible New York residents pay tuition at approved schools in New York State. Depending on the academic year in which you begin study, an annual TAP award can be up to $5,165. Because TAP is a grant, it does not have to be paid back.
Undergraduate students enrolled in four-year programs may receive up to four years (eight payments) of assistance for full-time study. Although an estimate of a student's eligibility may be included on their award letter, the state's notification is their official approved award.
Enhanced Tuition Awards
The Enhanced Tuition Awards (ETA) program provides tuition awards to students who are New York State residents attending a participating private college located in New York State. Recipients will receive $6,000 through a combination of their TAP award, ETA award and a match from their private college.

Besifloxacin is an 8-chloro fluoroquinolone anti-infective eye drop used to treat bacterial conjunctivitis, commonly known as pink eye - an infection of the membrane that covers the outer part of the eyeball and the inner parts of the eyelids. It is sold under brand name Besivance and belongs to a class of drugs called fluoroquinolones. This topical ophthalmic medication works by killing the bacteria that causes this infection. These include Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Haemophilus influenzae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Each dose of Besivance contains 6.63 mg of besifloxacin hydrochloride equivalent to 6 mg besifloxacin base.
Besifloxacin is manufactured as a suspension (eye drops) to apply directly to the infected eye. Besivance should be applied to the affected eyes three times per day, 5-10 hours apart. The suspension should be used for seven days. It is important that you apply the medication at around the same times during the medication period. Ensure that you use Besifloxacin as directed by your healthcare provider or as indicated on the prescription label. Never use more or less of the medication, or apply it more often than prescribed by your healthcare provider.
The symptoms of eye infection should improve during the treatment period. Call your healthcare provider if the symptoms worsen or do not go away, or if you develop other complications with your eyes during treatment.
Continue using besifloxacin eye drops until you finish the prescription, even if your condition improves. If you skip doses, or stop using the medication too soon, your infection may not completely heal and the bacteria may develop resistance to antibiotics.
While administering besifloxacin, exercise caution not to let the tip of the dropper come into contact with your eye, fingers or any surface. This is meant to prevent bacteria from coming into contact with the medicine. Using medicine that is contaminated with bacteria and other pathogens may cause serious damage to your eye or even loss of vision. If you suspect your eye drops have been contaminated, get rid of it immediately and inform your healthcare provider.
To use besifloxacin eye drops, follow these steps:
Along with the intended healing effects, besifloxacin may cause some undesired side effects. Although you may not experience all these side effects, consider seeking medical attention if they become severe.
Some side effects may occur that do not require medical attention as they will go away as the body adjusts to treatment. Also, your healthcare provider may advise you on ways to manage these side effects.
Use this medication exactly as prescribed by your pharmacist or healthcare provider. Do not apply it in larger amounts or for longer than recommended. Besifloxacin should be applied three times per day for 7 days. Follow your healthcare provider's instruction and space your doses at least five hours apart.
If you miss your besifloxacin dose, apply it as soon as you remember. However, if the next dose is barely an hour away, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not apply an extra dose to make up for the missed dose.
Besifloxacin overdose is unlikely to cause life-threatening symptoms. However, seek advice from your healthcare provider if you think you have applied too much of the drop.
Do not use besifloxacin while wearing contact lenses as the medication may contain preservatives that may be absorbed by the soft contact lenses. Wait at least 20 minutes after applying the drop before putting your contact lenses back in.
Do not wear contact lenses while you still have active symptoms of the eye infection you are treating.
It is unlikely that other medications you inject or take orally will have an effect on besifloxacin eye drops. However, most drugs tend to interact with each other. Inform your doctor about any medications you are currently on, including over-the-counter medications, mineral, supplements, drugs prescribed by other doctors, as well as herbal products. Do not start new medications without informing your healthcare provider.
Before using this medication:
Keep besifloxacin in the container it came with, tightly closed and out of reach of pets and children. Store the medication at room temperature away from excess heat, direct light and moisture. Do not keep besifloxacin in your car where it might be exposed to extreme heat.
Unused or expired medications should be disposed of appropriately to ensure that children and pets do not consume them. Do not flush this, or other medications, down the toilet or kitchen sink. Talk to your local pharmacist or the local garbage company to learn how you can best dispose of unused or expired medication.
Besifloxacin belongs to a group of antibiotics known as fluoroquinolones. It is used to treat bacterial infections. Besifloxacin ophthalmic is applied into the eyes to treat conjunctivitis - a bacterial infection of the eye.
Besifloxacin should not be used by individuals who are allergic to besifloxacin, or any of the ingredients used in the medicine. The medicine should be used exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider or pharmacist. Do not apply it in larger amounts or for longer than advised by your doctor. Carefully read and follow the directions on the prescription label before using the medicine.
Serious side effects of besifloxacin ophthalmic may include severe irritation on the treated eye, eye drainage or crusting, eye swelling or redness, feeling like there is a foreign object in the eye, fever and signs of new infection. Some of these symptoms will go away as the body adjusts to the medication. However, consider seeking medical attention if these side effects persist or worsen.
Ensure that you use besifloxacin for the full prescribed length of time (three times per day for 7 days). Do not stop the treatment because the symptoms have improved.
Do not use besifloxacin if you are wearing contact lenses as the medication may contain preservatives that can be absorbed into the lenses. Wait for at least 20 minutes after applying besifloxacin before putting your contact lenses back.

Sunday was Audi's day at the Hockenheimring in Germany. Following an Audi win in the Creation Rallycross Championship, Jamie Green took the checkered flag for the second raceway of DTM's season-opening weekend.
The race started with a big crash, precipitated by an Audi looming the back. On the restart, following a safety car period, Jamie Green took off, to escort the rain-soaked race until the end.
"The conditions today were really anything but foolproof," Green said. "Achieving a victory on the first weekend of a new racing season is again good."
Green's first place finish was encouraging for Audi, too. "Jamie (Na) handled this superbly and truly deserves this victory," said Dieter Gass, chairperson of Audi Motorsport. "It was a fantastic result for us."
The first race of the season, for now, wasn't quite as successful. Despite spending some time in second locale, Audi's Mike Rockenfeller lost the position to former F1 driver Timo Glock to consume Race 1 in third position, the best of Audi's six drivers.
After two races and one weekend, Audi is in following place in both the drivers' and the teams' championship standings.
Jamie Green (26) trails Mercedes' Lucas Auer (40) by 14 points, while Audi (36 pts) is 17 points behind Mercedes (53 pts) in the band standings.
The teams will be back on the track at the Lausitzring in two weeks for the second of nine races this occasion.

Recently Bradford Disability competed in The FA People's Cup at Football World in Leeds.
There were 4 teams with 5 players in each. The first game that we played we unfortunately lost 7-1 which was against Harrogate who eventually went on to win the competition. The goal scorer for BDFC was a player called Robert Mitchell he scored from the penalty spot.
The second match was BDFC v BDFC the final score being 7-2
Then the next match was Bradford Disability Football Club v Harrogate and the match result was 5-3 to Harrogate. Bradford Disability Football Clubs goals were scored by Bash, Joshua Lightowler and Jordan Giles.
After lunch again it was BDFC v BDFC you might think there is a pattern occurring here but there were only BDFC and Harrogate competing at adult level this was because Leeds United pulled out of the tournament at the last minute, so It turned into a round robin between Harrogate, BDFC 1, BDFC 2, BDFC 3. I think Massimo Chelino may be in charge of the disability club too lol.
So here goes, this is how the match after lunch turned out. The match result was 5-4 so at least a BDFC team won in this game lol. The 5 goals for BDFC 1 were scored by Oliver Clayton who scored 4 goals in this match and Daniel Barker who scored the fifth. And the 4 goals for BDFC 2 were scored by Robert Mitchell with a hat trick and a goal from a recently new member called Ewan.
The second match after lunch was BDFC 3 v Harrogate where Sam Robinson scored the two BDFC goals in a 6-2 defeat.
The final three matches in the tournament were:
BDFC 1 vs BDFC 2 – The result of this match was a 3-0 for BDFC 1 the scorers were Oliver Clayton and a double from Daniel Barker.
The second to last match was a thrilling 3-3 draw between BDFC 1 and Harrogate this was a very end to end game with both teams scoring some great goals. The scorers in this game was again Daniel Barker with a hat trick. He had a great tournament!
The third game was another match between two of the Bradford DFC teams and the result of this match was 12-6. Everyone has a defeat like this at some stage, look at Bradford City in the Capital One Cup J.
The tournament was a great event with teams of disability footballers competing to qualify for the next round of the competition and after the qualifying rounds there is a finals day which is held in Manchester. At the end of the finals day there are about three winners of each group and they will all get the opportunity to go and watch this year's FA Cup final at the iconic Wembley Stadium.

A Ghost Story
- Staring: Casey Affleck, Rooney Mara, McColm Cephas Jr.
- Director: David Lowery
- Genre(s): Drama, Fantasy, Romance
- Rating: R
- Running Time: 87 min.
Recently deceased, a white-sheeted ghost (Casey Affleck) returns to his suburban home to console his bereft wife (Rooney Mara), only to find that in his spectral state he has become unstuck in time, forced to watch passively as the life he knew and the woman he loves slowly slip away. Increasingly unmoored, the ghost embarks on a cosmic journey through memory and history, confronting life's ineffable questions and the enormity of existence. [A24]
"A Ghost Story is filmmaking that challenges and exhilarates, a potent reminder of how many new places film can still be taken even after a century of people working in the medium."- Dominick Suzanne-Mayer, Consequence of Sound
"The psychological weight of our certain death and the fact that life will go on long after we are departed is difficult to visually convey, but A Ghost Story is one of the most poignant films to ever grapple with this existential question."- Jordan Raup, The Film Stage
"A Ghost Story has the structure and rhythm of a musical suite, with Lowry working variations on the same themes, the same characters, and the same location. The result can be lyrical and poetic, or more naturalistic and minimalist. In both cases, A Ghost Story is absolutely mesmerizing, with an anything-goes quality that's endlessly fascinating."- Noel Murray, The Playlist
"David Lowery's beautifully conceived riff on the haunted-house movie emits an extra glow thanks to challenging but resonant performances from Casey Affleck and Rooney Mara."- Tim Grierson, Screen International
"The sense of time passing is hypnotic, and the image of the ghost, wounded and watching, unable to communicate or offer comfort, becomes more eerie and beautiful the longer we observe it. "- David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
"It's a strange, sad, fragile little thing that should make us snicker, but instead it fills the screen with grace and beauty. "- Steve Pond, TheWrap
"A film that I can guarantee you people will revisit and discuss for years to come. It's daring, strange, and unforgettable."- Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
"A sneakily ambitious meditation on life after death, the endurance of romantic connection, and the value we place on the spaces we occupy."- A.A. Dowd, AV Club

Code of Ethics and PoliciesAuthors who have questions about whether their paper would violate any code of ethics should contact the Program Chairs at firstname.lastname@example.com when they plan to submit the paper.
The code of ethics and policies follow IEEE Signal Processing Society Policies and Procedures.
The essential parts are listed below. If any discrepancy between the information stated on this pages and the official IEEE Signal Processing Society Policies and Procedures then the official policies prevail.
Authors' Rights
- Authorship and co-authorship of any publication submitted to the IEEE Signal Processing Society in any form should be based on substantial contributions as defined in the IEEE Publications Operations manual, section 8.2.1.A, which include a significant intellectual input, contributions to drafting the article, and approval of the final version accepted for publications. All co-authors have responsibility for work submitted under their names. Co-authors have the right to withdraw their names before acceptance of the article, but no co-author shall be removed without his/her permission.
- Submission of a paper to an IEEE Signal Processing Society journal is taken to mean that all listed authors have agreed to the authorship list and all the contents and confirm that the work is original and that figures, tables and other reported results accurately reflect the experimental work. The use of a co-authors name in a submission without his/her consent is unacceptable and will result in corrective actions. Fabrication, falsification or intentional misrepresentation of any aspect is considered misconduct and subject to IEEE sanctions for all authors.
- Authors may only submit original work that has not appeared elsewhere in a journal publication, nor is under review for another journal publication. Limited overlap with prior journal publications with a common author is allowed only if it is necessary for the readability of the paper and the paper is cited. It is acceptable for conference papers to be used as the basis for a more fully developed journal submission. Still, authors are required to cite related prior work; the papers cannot be identical; and the journal publication must include novel aspects. The question of whether there is sufficient novelty should be determined by the review process and not by a simple measurement of overlap determined by word count. Overlap with an unreviewed technical report or student thesis with the same authors is allowed if the original work is cited.
- All manuscripts submitted for publication will be treated as confidential by Organizers and Reviewers.
All IEEE Signal Processing Society volunteers that are involved in the publications process should avoid every perception of conflict of interest.
The Organizers will strive to avoid every perception of conflict of interest in the review process. Submissions cannot be reviewed by a reviewer from any of the author's institutions (or subsidiaries). Nor can the submission be reviewed by a reviewer who has a professional collaboration (such as a joint research projects) with any of the authors at the time of submission.
Author MisconductThe IEEE Signal Processing Society recognizes that there are different forms of author misconduct including:
- Research misconduct: Falsification, fabrication and/or misrepresentation of results, committed intentionally or recklessly; intentional misuse of a co-author's name in a submission without his/her consent. Research misconduct does not include honest errors.
- Plagiarism of the work of others: Plagiarism includes copying someone elses work without appropriate credit, using someone elses work without clear delineation of citation, and the uncited reuse of an authors previously published work that also involves other authors. The IEEE PSPB Operations manual section 8.2.4.D provides guidelines on adjudicating five different levels of severity of plagiarism, including uncredited verbatim copying and uncredited improper paraphrasing of different amounts of text, as well as credited verbatim copying of a major portion of an article without clear delineation. These are intended as guidelines; the impact of the plagiarized material on the originality of the paper should be a primary consideration.
- Self-plagiarism: Self-plagiarism involves the reuse of an author's own prior work without appropriate citation, including substantial overlap in technical content as well as verbatim copying. Uncredited reuse of material from a previously published journal paper that constitutes more than 35% of the submitted manuscript (not necessarily verbatim) is unacceptable and shall be subject to sanctions. Uncredited reuse of a substantial amount of material from a previously published conference paper is also unacceptable.
- Multiple submissions: When papers by the same author(s) are being considered for review concurrently and have substantial overlap, as described above for self-plagiarism, they are considered to be multiple submissions. If the authors alert the editor that a submitted paper is under review elsewhere, they will be asked to withdraw other versions from consideration or withdraw the submitted paper. When the editor is not alerted, a duplicate submission will be considered self-plagiarism.
Paper FormattingAuthors are required to format submissions in accordance with provided formatting procedures provided. Failure to comply will result in rejection of the paper for publication.
No-ShowsNo-show papers are defined as papers submitted by authors who subsequently did not either themselves or via proxy present the paper at the technical meeting. No-show papers that were not withdrawn and were published in the Proceedings must be identified as "No-Show" in the files submitted to IEEE for further publication (IEEE Xplore). No-shows will not be available on IEEE Xplore or other public access IEEE forums. IEEE will maintain an archive of no-shows.
Exceptions to this policy will be made by the Technical Program Chair of the conference only if there is evidence that the no-show occurred because of unanticipated events beyond the control of the authors, and every option available to the authors to present the paper was exhausted. The no-show authors may appeal the decision of the Technical Program Chair to the Vice President-Conferences.
Authors of papers submitted to the meeting must be advised in writing that the IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the technical meeting.
The technical meeting organizers will be responsible for gathering the no-show information from the sessions and submitting the information to the Conference Executive staff.
Authors' handling of submitted papersIn order to prevent disclosure of authors' identities, MLSP does not allow authors to share or post submitted versions of their papers during the review period on any platform. For accepted papers, the general IEEE rules below apply.
Authors' CopyrightAs provided by IEEE Policy, all technical, educational and professional publications, including Society newsletters, are required to be copyrighted by the IEEE. Copyright is held by the Institute itself and not by the Society.
In further keeping with IEEE policy, the Society shall ensure that, prior to publication, all authors or their employers shall transfer to the IEEE in writing any copyright they hold for their individual papers. Such transfer shall be necessary for publication, except for material in the public domain or reprinted from a copyrighted publication. In return, the IEEE shall grant authors and their employers permission in writing to make copies and otherwise reuse the material under terms approved by the IEEE Publication Services and Products Board, which shall be specified in the PSPB Operations Manual.
