The House of Representatives on Wednesday tried mightily but fell short in its bid to send a tough, pointed message to the Obama administration: Put limits on the National Security Agency's ability to collect personal data.
The 217-205 vote rejected an effort to require the government to only gather material on people under investigation. Wednesday's action marked the first time Congress has extensively debated and voted on the programs since they were publicly revealed last month.

The effort drew an unusual coalition of liberals and conservatives concerned about privacy. But it couldn't overcome fierce opposition led by the White House and congressional leaders.
"Passing this amendment takes us back to Sept. 10," warned House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Mich.
The House did approve, by a vote of 409-12, a provision that did little more than reinforce current restrictions on data gathering. Critics of the spying programs agreed with Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., who dismissed it as a "fig leaf."
The votes dramatically illustrated how many Americans are uneasy about the surveillance programs, disclosed last month via media leaks by former national security contractor Edward Snowden.
"Go home to your constituents and ask them if they have a reasonable expectation of privacy. The answer will be 'yes,'" said Rep. Justin Amash, R-Mich., who led the fight.
A new McClatchy-Marist poll, taken July 15-18, found 56 percent of Americans thought the federal government had gone too far in collecting information from phone calls, emails and other Internet activity.
The Amash proposal would have permitted the National Security Agency to gather information if the super-secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court said the data involves someone under investigation.
Supporting Amash was what Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, termed a "wing-nut coalition," which he said shared concerns about an overly intrusive government.
"We all want to provide our law enforcement officials with the tools they need to safeguard our country from potential terrorist attacks," said Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass. "But we also want to protect the basic rights and liberties guaranteed to all Americans from unwanted and unwarranted searches."
The measure unleashed a fierce lobbying effort. The American Civil Liberties Union, which favored the measure, aggressively lobbied Democratic House members, hired a Republican strategist to reach out to conservative and tea party-affiliated House Republicans for support, and held telephone briefings for Capitol Hill staffers.
ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero had an opinion piece in Wednesday's edition of the conservative-leaning Washington Times praising the amendment.
They faced a gauntlet of opposition from some of Washington's most powerful voices.
James Clapper, the director of national intelligence, warned that "acting in haste to defund the FISA Business Records program risks dismantling an important intelligence tool." Army Gen. Keith Alexander, the NSA director, visited the Capitol for hastily arranged meetings with lawmakers from both parties. Former officials from the administration of President George W. Bush also voiced their concerns.
Rogers and the top Democrat on the House intelligence panel, Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland, jointly issued a statement calling the data collection "integral in preventing multiple terrorist attacks, including a plot to attack on the New York Stock Exchange in 2009. If enacted, this amendment would have an immediate – and potentially fatal – operational impact, and make America more vulnerable to terrorist attacks."
"This is an extreme, knee-jerk reaction" to the current controversy, Ruppersberger argued on the House floor.
The White House had weighed in Tuesday with its own warning.
"This blunt approach is not the product of an informed, open or deliberative process," said Press Secretary Jay Carney. "We urge the House to reject the Amash amendment, and instead move forward with an approach that appropriately takes into account the need for a reasoned review of what tools can best secure the nation."
Congress has warmed to the idea of a review. After news broke about the programs last month, lawmakers were reluctant to tinker. Traditionally, intelligence and judiciary committees review such activity, and other members of Congress often follow their guidance.
But in recent weeks, constituents have expressed new concerns, prompting hearings and promises of new scrutiny, including one from Rogers during Wednesday's debate.
The Guardian newspaper of Britain reported one program involved cellphone records. The Guardian, along with The Washington Post, said another program allowed the government access to the online activity of users from nine Internet companies.

Who's who in the pecking order
The side porch of our home in northern Calvert County faces east. It's a great place to have our morning coffee and feel the first warm rays of the sun. It's also where my wife sets out the hummingbird feeders, so we get to watch the high-speed high jinks of these delicate little birds.
As our birds return from Mexico, each year one or two hovers around the very spot where the feeders hang, peeking through the screen as if to say, Okay, I'm back. I know you're in there. Now come and bring the magic flowers.
|Editor's note: Hummingbirds return with the azalea bloom.
My wife swears that once, as she stood under the place where a feeder hung, a bird tapped her shoulder to let her know it was here.
Almost every year, an alpha male claims the magic flowers for his own. The BF Bird is what we call him. He puffs out his feathers, flashes his ruby throat and buzzes off all attempting to feed but his females. If a bird tries to hide in a nearby bush, he will bombard the bejesus out of him while squealing every bird profanity to punctuate his point.
I say almost every year because one year the BF Bird was a female.
One of the females that came to the feeders had what looked like a piece of flower or maybe a large piece of cobweb attached to her foot. Upon closer inspection, the attachment looked like the mummified remains of another bird — perhaps the conjoined twin of a double yoke. Whatever it was, the added weight bulked up the little bird. She became larger and stronger than all the rest. By the middle of summer, she had displaced the BF male. She took up his perch guarding the magic flowers, and she ran off male and female alike. I can only imagine what the other birds were saying as she swooped after them: Oh my gosh! She's clutching one she's killed. Fly for your life!
At summer's end, all the birds were taking on nectar for their journey south. I worried that our BF Bird would not make it across the Gulf of Mexico with her extra baggage. I thought, then thought better, of shooting the mummy off with the pellet gun.
The birds left and the feeders came down for the winter.
The next year, we looked for our BF female. In late June, we saw her. She had three distinctive dots on her breast, so there was no mistaking our bird. The mummy had all but disappeared, and she had slimmed down to become the best looking of all the birds.
We never saw her again after that second summer, but she left us with a privileged feeling for knowing her — and that truth is stranger than fiction.

The hot game these days seem to be Eminent Domain, which was funded on Kickstarter in November 2010; since then, it seems as if designers are racing to fund their latest creations the same way. The way Kickstarter works is that people post projects they want to do, and how much money they need to do it; anyone with an Amazon account can then pledge any amount of money towards the project. If enough pledges come in by the deadline to fund the project, everyone gets charged and the person posting the project gets the money (minus Kickstarter and Amazon fees, of course). Backers get different 'prizes' for contributing different amounts; for board games, this will generally be an early copy of the game, possibly at a discount or with an exclusive bonus.
The following is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all the board games available to kickstart; it's just the ones that I've either funded or found interesting.
Kings of Air and Steam
By Michael Mindes
Minimum contribution to get the game: $45
Kings of Air and Steam is a cyberpunk-themed train game (From glancing at the rules, I would describe it as a cross between 18XX and Roborally) put out by Tasty Minstrel Games, the same publisher who did Eminent Domain. The game design has already been completed and the game will be published; the Kickstarter project is actually to fund improvements, such as additional characters and molded plastic airships.
Backers get the game a month in advance of the release, and there's talk about possibly adding some type of exclusive components. The discount off one copy isn't much ($45 vs $50 retail) but apparently the company has contracts prohibiting the game from being sold at a discount before June 2013, so you're not paying more than someone who waits. The Kickstarter copies are expected to be in the mail by July 2012.
This is listed as having a 1-2 hour playtime, and takes 2-6 players.
Current status: Will fund on Dec 14
Zong Shi – Earn the right to be named Grand Master Craftsman
By Keith Blume II
Minimum contribution to get the game: $50
Another offering from Gryphon Games, the publisher of Pastiche and The Road to Canterbury, this is a worker placement/set collection game for 3-5 players. My first impression is that this reminds me of At The Gates Of Loyang. Each player gets two workers: a master and an apprentice; a master can fulfill any role, while the apprentice cannot create works and cannot do other things as well as the master. Your goal is to create the greatest works in order to be recognized as the Grand Master craftsman. Of course, before you can begin work on your designs, you'll need to barter for materials at the marketplace..
Anyone who purchases at least one copy will also get a coupon for $20 off a $50 purchase at the Gryphon Games website, plus free shipping. You can also get a copy of the game by pledging $75 in Keith's Pizza Theory Kickstarter project, which ends Dec 30.
Current status: will fund on Dec 9
Mutant Meeples
By Bezier Games
Minimum contribution to get the game: $45
You've probably played Rocochet Robots: you need to get one of the robots to a particular spot in the factory, but since the robots have no brakes, once one starts moving it doesn't stop until it runs into something. How do you get the robot where it needs to go in the fewest number of moves?
Mutant Meeples is an update to that: you need to get a superpowered mutant to a particular point in the city, and the meeples don't really know how to control their super speed, so they can't stop until they run into something. This time, however, it doesn't matter which meeple makes it to the spot, and each one has a superpower to help them get around. Once you've made it to an emergency using a particular meeple, however, you're not allowed to move that meeple again for rest of the game..
I have to say that this game looks really intriguing; it's basically a more complex version of Ricochet Robots. I'm not sure I approve of how the funding is being done, however; the game is already finished and Bezier certainly has the resources to put it out, so this seems to be mostly a way of getting pre-orders (as well as bringing in extra money by selling off street names). At $45 for the base game or $60 with the expansion, you're not really saving anything off the likely cost of the game, and it doesn't appear there's any bonus for being part of the project, aside from having your name in the credits.
Still…mutant meeples..
Current status (as of 11/8): $6,889 pledged of $10,000 goal, 25 days to go
Eaten by Zombies
By Seth Hiatt
Minimum contribution to get the game: $25
Seems like Dominion-inspired games are coming out of the woodwork these days, doesn't it? Eaten by Zombies is really more of a desk destruction game, though…while you may work at carefully building up your deck, the first time you fail to kill off the zombies you're facing, you start losing cards! Whoever survives the longest wins, although if you die you can still potentially win the game by driving your friends insane..
Supporters get the game, a promo card, and a special die for keeping track of how many zombies are coming out each turn.
Current Status: successfully funded on September 19 for $47,874

Automated precision manufacturing of titanium workpieces
For the stable production of super-precise titanium welding tools, Herrmann Ultraschall relies on the combination of CNC 5 axis, high-performance machining centers with a robot-aided workpiece magazine and handling system supplied by Hermle.
Knowing how: In the course of 50 years, the intelligent implementation of physical laws has enabled the medium sized company Herrmann Ultraschall to advance to become a leading supplier and global player in the ultrasonic technology sector. In the Karlsbad headquarters alone, around 190 employees develop and produce machines, tools and complete solutions for the welding of thermoplastics or for cutting baked products.
Ultrasonic joining and cutting involves complex processes in which the joint types of the parts to be connected, the behavior of the materials, the shape and the physical vibration behavior of the sonotrodes have a decisive influence on the quality of the finished product. In this respect Herrmann Ultraschall leaves nothing to chance and sets great store by application consultation and know-how - in other words 'quality made in Germany': All components and assemblies are produced either in-house or by selected subcontractors.
The challenge
Especially the titanium sonotrodes require the absolutely highest degree of attention in respect of design, shaping, construction, programming and manufacturing. Plant manager Andreas Zipper: "For welding, the titanium sonotrode is made to vibrate. This involves the translation of electrical tension into ultrasound vibrations at frequencies between 20 and 35 kHz. The mechanical vibration of the sonotrode (35000 oscillations/sec at 35 kHz) is introduced into the fusion zone of the workpiece where it melts the material on account of molecular and interfacial friction, producing an exact, optically perfect and dense joint."
For reproducibly good welding results, extremely exactly manufactured titanium sonotrodes are essential. The prerequisite for this is a correspondingly high machining quality. For sonotrodes measuring 50 x 50 mm to 50 x 300 mm this means tolerances in the 40 μ range. Even tiny discrepancies have a negative effect on the welding quality. First, the basic shape must be created. This must then be tested in the welding system, possibly put back on the machine and adjusted for as long as is necessary until it is exactly right.
Simple, reliable, Hermle
In earlier days this represented a complex, multi-stage process. Now, Herrmann Ultraschall simply uses the Hermle C 30 U. "We have only been using 5 axis technology completely for a few years as yet," explains Andreas Zipper, "because it wasn't essential for many sonotrodes and we had several examples of partner companies making big promises that were followed by failed demonstrations. But an Open House at Hermle and then test processing of original materials quickly changed our minds: We
bought a C 30 U with NC swiveling rotary table (Ø 280 mm), an additional tool magazine with a total of 157 locations as well as zero-point pallet and workpiece clamping technology adapted to an RS 60 robot system. Hermle provided support for all project phases and the transition was successful. So the sonotrode production was successively transferred to the C 30 U. It fulfills all the requirements in respect of performance, precision, handling and reproducible quality."
Automating the production process
This confidence in the company and its machines led to further investments: two Hermle C 30 Us and an RS 2 robot system. In the course of the installation, the originally purchased C 30 U was upgraded and integrated into the system. This provided Herrmann Ultraschall with a complete manufacturing system from a single supplier. It is in operation round the clock to produce high-quality titanium sonotrodes requiring long processing times (up to 12 hours). Especially during the unmanned night shift and at weekends, work can carry on without interruption.
Typical Hermle reliability
Andreas Zipper comments: "To produce the current quantities of 5000 to 6000 sonotrodes per year using titanium with its problematical machining characteristics, it is most important to be able to rely fully on human and machine performance. With the Hermle hardware we have the capacity and quality prerequisites that we need to be able to cope with these quantities and this complexity reliably and in multi-shift operation. At first the workforce was concerned about job risks, but through information, training and higher qualification we were able to show that precisely in order to keep the jobs, the way forward was in automating the production. And our success proves it: The next investments in Hermle systems are already being planned."

The Administration will apparently pull out a lot of the stops–certainly not all–to make an impression on the U.N.'s Security Council next week. According to Newsweek's Michael Isikoff, the evidence to be unveiled by Colin Powell will include National Security Agency intercepts of Iraqi officials plotting to evade the U.N.'s inspectors. I guess this is a good thing, but I have to wonder: is there anyone who doubts that Saddam and his minions are developing prohibited weapons and hiding that development from the inspectors? Does even the Evil Weasel, Tom Daschle, doubt this? I don't think so. So it is a little unclear what exactly is being accomplished by jumping through this hoop. One suspects that more hoops will inevitably appear.

Posting this here too, to increase my chances on finding someone:
Hey guys, I'm kinda tired of playing random comps with random pick ups from /2, so I'm looking for a high tier comp atm.
Who I am:
- Sart/Denis, 24, from Germany
- Played Priest through all of WotLK, getting glad in seasons 5, 6 and 7 on both, Disc and Sp.
- Played on WotLK AT when cata hit live realms, held R1 for a while there in the current season on my priest
- Got back to live at the end of 5.3 and rerolled MW Monk
- Fluent German, English and Spanish
- Online regularily almost every weekday + at least one day of the weekend (I'm getting old, can't party for 3 days straight anymore )
What I'm looking for:
MW Monks are kinda limited in their comp choice (requiring an offhealer and/or someone to keep/get them out of CC). Also I don't necessarily have the time to filter through the amount of people needed until you find someone to get high rating again with non-fotm comps, so either:
- Mage and Ele,
- Mage and Warrior,
- Lock and Ele or
- Ele and Warrior
What I expect:
- Some form of voice chat, preferably Skype, althought TS3/Ventrilo are ok too
- Fluent English or German or Spanish
- Being vocal (!)
- Decent 3s experience (~2,3), preferably without playing fotm comps, experience in the desired comp is not required but very welcome
- Being able to take (and GIVE) constructive criticism without ragequitting
My aims:
Since this is my first non-wotlk season every, first MoP season and first season on a new class (and the class itself not necessarily being tier 1 right now), gladiator might be a bit delusional. 2,4+ in 3s is a realistic goal, if it turns out to be better, I'm the last one to say no
If you're interested, EU and HORDE, and feel like you're the right person to do that job, PM me here on AJ, or add my BattleTag Sart#2135. Thanks for reading this and thanks in advance for your replies.

Perlico needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 38 designs submitted by 15 freelance designers.
Looking for a nice mockup design for our company MRB. WE do doors, tiles, oak floors and timber designs (eg: furniture).
We have permission to use images from these websites although i wouldnt use their same homepage pictures:
Ceramic Tiles ....... http://www.opoczno.com/
Art Doors .............. http://www.dre.pl/drzwi/index.htm
Oak Flooring http://www.wide-oak-flooring.com/
Feel free to find nice images yourself :)
The layout of website is described roughly at the link below. The company does four category of products so these are shown in the centre of the layout. I was thinking using headings and maybe a nice picture for each box would be nice.
I also have explained the navigation for the inside pages so hopefully your design will accommodate for this. In the past i have seen some very nice homepage designs but struggled to design inner pages with it.
All files including logo, layout, contact us and about us info are here:
Good luck and thanks in advance.
nothing else to add
- Clean, easy to follow, sharp, nice on the eye
- Clunky buttons, clashing colours, hard to follow navigation

From the beginning in 1999, design became a part of the bm identity. From the very start, our aim for fundamental values and our passion have been the driving forces for ongoing improvements.
The designs by Carlos Tiscar, the graphic designs of Juan Martinez, Antonio Solaz and Pablo Alabau, the fashion designs of Laura Alandes and the in-house product department led by Esther Negredo have enabled us to develop extensive furniture ranges such as the TOP collections of children's bedrooms, the TopSleep bedrooms or the TopLook range of wardrobes, and in addition, the real bm design icons such as the Up&Down bunk beds, the Facebox children's drawer units, the Beat and Elastic wardrobes amongst others.
The personalization of the product is summed up in the motto that goes with the bm logo: Plural & Singular. Our products are designed for all types of people. Basic and timeless products where the main aim is to perform the purpose for which they have been designed, shying away from excessive and overdone embellishment. Because we all like to be different and choose the things to surround ourselves with, you can customize this product for yourself. Achieving this is easy thanks to 60 choices of finish: base, lacquer, textile, metal, etc. and in addition the differing width and height measurements. There are more than 700,000 options to choose from!
Quality is one of the principles we adhere to when we carry out the study, design, and manufacture of each one of our products. Spanish and European quality regulations are taken into account. Aidima (The Furniture Technological Institute) certifies the quality of our products with different tests. We would like to show you the fatigue test carried out on the drawers. To see videos and find out more about the Aidiam controls and tests, you can have a look at their website: http://www.simbolocalidad.com/ensayos.php
Because every detail matters on a bm piece of furniture, we meticulously design and develop opening systems, such as the guard rail of convertible cots, drawer pulls, feet and wheels for chests of drawers, wardrobe door edges and many more components.
At bm, we carry out ongoing product improvements, such as the inclusion of hidden metal guides with a retention systems. The latter stops the drawer from slamming closed and the children from trapping their fingers. The wardrobe shelves have increased in thickness to 30 mm, the hanging rails have non-slip rubber, and the backs of the modules and wardrobes are 10 mm thick.
The broad scope of bm products allows their use to be adapted to different purposes and ages. When it comes to choosing the finish, you can make the same piece of furniture have a childish look or it could be equally suited to an office. An example of this is the new Infinite Bed. This bed that starts from the measurement of one modular piece and continues growing until you reach the required measurement. For a 90 cm width mattress in the White Dot finish or in a daring color, it is perfect for a child. If we add modules for a 150 cm width mattress and choose a more serious finish, you get a bed that is perfect for adults.
Another example of this broad scope of the bm products is the wall panels with peg holes. These allow us to finish them off with shelves, knobs, and elastic bands. For a child's bedroom, a wall space can become a place to put books, toys, etc. and for a small office, the same panel can become very efficient for storage without taking up much space.

The purpose of this training match is to teach how to wrestle in XWW and give you a feel of what you will see when you come up to the main roster. While this is a training match and you will be facing a jobber, do not make this match a complete squash. In a good match, the momentum changes between the competitors several times, and quite frankly, squash matches are frowned upon in XWW. From now on, all instructions will be in bold, except for commentator and announce names.
Why Can't We Be Friends plays on the speakers and out steps and the friendly ginger, Chez Lewis steps out. On his way down the entrance ramp he claps a few hands from the crowd who are giving a nice cheer, but not blasting the roof off. He rolls in to the ring under the bottom rope.
Your entrance is important. While it is a no brainer, always have your entrance music hit first. The way you come down to the ring and the fans reaction both help to get your character over as a heel, face, or tweener. If your a face, don't spill some guys popcorn, and if you are a heel don't go kissing some hot babe in the front row. Bottom line, establish your character on the way to the ring and get him over.
Green - Ah here comes XWW's friendliest member, Lewis
Harrop - I'll admit that he is friendly, but he can't wrestle his way out of a paper bag, and to make it worse he's a red head.
Green - Oh come on, I'd like to see you beat Chez and the colour of his hair is hardly relevant.
Harrop - If he weren't busy with this match, I would. But as it is i have to call the match instead...*sarcastically* Hoorah! And by the way the colour of his hair is relevant, it's relevant to teasing him, Haha!
The commentators are also important. One tip to remember is that Joseph Green is the face play-by-play commentator and Daniel Harrop is the heel color commentator. Green supports the faces, but does give the heels credit for their wrestling ability, while Harrop just supports the heels and hates the faces. There is no gray area with him. The commentators are used to break up portions of a match and also add some flavor to the match, the sizzle to the steak sort of speak. They can put over a certain move, that otherwise might go unnoticed, and they can put over your wrestler's ability and/or character.
Dickson - This is a match set for one fall and introducing first, weighing in at 224 pounds...Chez Lewis!
Matthew Dickson is our announcer....he announces stuff. Just remember to have him introduce your wrestler, but don't leave out anything vital.
Chez jumps up and down and does some basic stretches. He bounces off the ropes a few times then climbs a turnbuckle and waves to the crowd. He stands on every turnbuckle and waves to the crowd. He then calmly walks in to the middle of the ring and awaits his opponent.
Every wrestler has a pre-match ritual. Your wrestler needs to psyche himself up into the match and rile the crowd up. Be careful though, as you give your opponent the opportunity to jump you, but Chez won't do that as he's a very nice guy.
Keep all this in mind and remember to stay in kayfabe. Don't forget to put [TBC] at the end of each post.
[TBC by James Griffen]

Schools and libraries will soon have a new way to access and stream video, for free, to computers and mobile devices.
OverDrive, a provider of digital books, audiobooks, music and video, has rolled out a pilot program of its new streaming video service at the Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL). The service allows users to borrow videos from the library for viewing on any Web-connected device. The company plan to offer the program to its full network of partner schools and libraries.
Library users can access video two ways, either from their library's e-media platform or through OverDrive Media Station, touchscreen e-book kiosks located in the library. With OverDrive Media Station, users can search for and sample video titles then send it to their device – e-mail, QR code, or SMS -- for checkout. As with other services from the company, titles can be borrowed for a specific length of time, after which they expire from the user's device.
The company plans to roll out pilots with additional libraries this month. To view available video titles, go to OverDrive's site.

WASHINGTON (Sinclair Broadcast Group) - A new report claims the heroin that caused more than 60 overdoses across Cincinnati in less than two days was cut with elephant tranquilizer.
According to The Washington Post, the batch of heroin may have contained "a new opioid analog 100 times more potent than fentanyl and 10,000 stronger than morphine."
It's called carfentanil - or more commonly - it's known as elephant tranquilizer.
The newspaper reports the drug is strong enough to kill a 15,000-pound pachyderm - an elephant, rhinoceros, or hippopotamus. Authorities haven't confirmed exactly what the heroin was cut with; other options include fentanyl, or even rat poison.
In the course of one day in Cincinnati, emergency crews responded to 30 overdose calls Tuesday.
By Wednesday, more than 75 people called for help after taking the drug.
In Colerain Township, officers walked door-to-door offering help to people who've overdosed.
"Our number of overdoses has risen by a lot," said Colerain Twp. Officer Roger Mitchell. "We're not just police here just to arrest. We also, we want to help. Usually when we go on the scene the last thing we want to do is arrest them. We want to get them help."
Only one death has been reported as of this post.
The rest of the people have been saved by the drug Narcan, which reverses the effects of an overdose.
Tests are now underway to confirm the exact cause of the spike.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich will address the media about the epidemic Thursday afternoon.
The Regional Judicial Opiod Initiative began its summit on Wednesday in the midst of the drug crisis.

VATICAN CITY — The papal spokesman's update on Pope Benedict today contained very little information about the pope himself. Basically, Jesuit Father Federico Lombardi said the pope took an evening walk yesterday despite the rainy weather.
However, the e-mail dispatched from Les Combes, where the pope has been vacationing since July 13, did say that the mayor of Introd — which includes Les Combes — joined members of the papal entourage for dinner last night. The pope's physicians, security agents and other aides are staying in a guesthouse next to the pope's chalet.
Father Lombardi said the mayor "provided an excellent polenta with venison" from the small European roe deer, "which he cooked himself with great skill."
This morning, the spokesman said, the pope is putting the final touches on the homily he will give this evening when he celebrates vespers with priests, religious and laypeople in the cathedral of Aosta.
In addition, he said, the papal vacation compound is a beehive of activity as workers set up benches and barriers in preparation for the arrival of an estimated 5,000 people Sunday for the recitation of the Angelus.
Today's edition of L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican newspaper, contains an interview with Father Aldo Armellin, who the newspaper describes as the contact between the Diocese of Aosta and the papal party.
The priest said there are a lot of people "who try to get close to the pope" while he's on vacation. Some send notes, some send small gifts and others "want to show their affection and make him feel part of the family by welcoming him with a homemade dessert typical to the region."

Indonesian forest photo from Shutterstock
Today the world's third largest paper company, Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) pledged to stop deforestation in Indonesia. As a result of years of campaigning by activist groups such as Greenpeace, the company stopped clearing virgin forests and announced that they will only source material from land that was not a rainforest ecosystem or that has already been cleared. This is a major victory for Indonesia's forests, the world at large, and those looking to preserve habitats for critically endangered animals such as the Sumatran tiger and orangutan.
An in-depth investigation by Greenpeace last year found that APP was cutting down endangered trees that were illegal to harvest and selling them in packaging to clients. Following the report, major businesses such as Xerox, KFC, Disney, and Mattel left APP, contributing to the paper giant's proclamation to cease rainforest logging this week. APP will continue to work with the The Forest Trust to change their policies, and if successful, they could influence the entire market. As a $6 billion company that produces 8.5 million tons of the paper a year, APP's actions have the potential to set the standard for the industry.
"If the third-largest paper company in the world can commit to forest preservation – despite the complex social, political, economic and environmental challenges they have to navigate to do so—then any company can do it. Now, there is no excuse for companies – whether operating in Indonesia, Africa, or other forest-rich regions – to destroy forests as a consequence of feeding global demand for the goods they produce." stated Scott Poynton, head of the The Forest Trust.
Aida Greenbury, APP's managing director of sustainability attributed the shift primarily to the loss of reputation and damage to the company's image. The decision also affects APP's business interests. "Truthfully it's not only about environmental and social sustainability, it's also about economic sustainability as well. We need work with stakeholders not only in Indonesia but beyond, because we want to make sure that we don't have a lost opportunity in the future to expand our market." she said.
Greenpeace will continue to monitor the APP's activities, making sure that the company remains true to its pledge to avoid high-carbon stock stands and peatland. NGOs and environmental groups will now be looking to Asia Pacific Resources International, the second largest producer in Indonesia to follow APP's lead.

Upgrading with FedUp
Recommended Upgrade Method (for upgrading to Fedora 18 and newer)| This is the recommended method to upgrade your Fedora system to Fedora 18 and newer. Note that FedUp is only available in Fedora 17 and later. For instructions on upgrading, refer to the Installation Guide or FedUp
Using the DVD to upgrade
{{admon/note | Recommended Upgrade Method (when upgrading to Fedora 17 or earlier releases) | This was the recommended method for upgrading to releases up to Fedora 17. DVD upgrades are not available for later releases; instead, please use FedUp
For upgrading to all releases up to Fedora 17, the process of using Anaconda installer to upgrade is the recommended and supported method and detailed in the Fedora Installation Guide. However, for best results when migrating from unsupported versions to newer versions, back up your user and configuration data and perform a fresh installation.
Upgrading directly using Yum
Upgrading directly from one release to the next using
yum is not explicitly tested by Fedora QA and issues with it are not considered blockers for a release, but in practise it works for many users, probably due to our packaging guidelines providing detailed information on maintaining upgradability. To learn more, refer to Upgrading Fedora using yum.
Upgrading from a pre-release (alpha, beta, release candidate or other development snapshot) to the final release
If you are using a pre-release of Fedora, and want to know more about upgrading to the final release, refer to Upgrading from pre-release to final.
- It's a good idea to have a backup of your system before performing an upgrade. Keeping
/homein a separate logical volume or partition makes backing up user data easier, because the home partition can be reused when upgrading or reinstalling. This is the default from Fedora 13 onwards.
- Doing a clean installation and then restoring user data from backups may work better for some users. Future releases may include features to assist in this process. Refer to AnacondaWorkItems for more information.
- Make sure you read the Release Notes carefully before attempting an upgrade.
Rawhide is a development version of Fedora that is updated daily. It is suitable for people who are developing or testing Fedora before broad public release.
- To move from Rawhide to a stable release, refer to Upgrading from pre-release to final.
- To move from a stable release to Rawhide, refer to Releases/Rawhide.

Edit-This is the thread for collected experiences and discussions related to kratom. This thread should be used to answer any and all questions about the use of kratom as a medicine/ drug.
I am in the process of breaking a 3 year long various opiate habit that has gone up and down, but has always been with me. It has ranged from 2 80 mg oxys a day, down to only one or two percs/vics, then back up to more oxys, or a large amount of pods. I have never quit for more than a week. WIthdrawing from the pods was a huge reality check- it sucked. It is time to prioritize my life, and get back on track (or at least make a better atempt this time).
I am trying to use Kratom for this. I will taper the best way I know how. It has actually been effective for keeping me four days clean, but then I ran out yesterday before my next order and couldnt stand the lethargy and anxiety ( I have a horrendously hard physical labor job- not withdrawal freindly), so I took some oxycodone.
I know nothing of the pharmacology of Kratom, but it seems like it is missing something that other opiates have- and I mean that in a good way. After using the Kratom for four days, I started getting that "gitty" feeling back that I have longed for so long. It is almost like certain senses that I forgot I had were turned back on despite the Kratom. It almost felt like I was clean for months. I felt like testosterone was once again coursing through my veins, my sex drive was way up, my eyes became clearer, I was no longer pale looking, and I had great feelings of emotions that I hadn't had in a long time. I was content just blasting my music, exercising, and smoking ciggarettes. The only problem was that these feelings came and went throughout the course of the day.
Then I ran out of Krat and took some Oxy. The oxy of course made me feel good, but afterwards, I felt like I was all the way back to square one. The next day I didn't have any of the "giddy" feeling like I had the first four days, I was once again pale, and I was extremely lethargic and anxious. I was extremely dissapointed and I can't wait till I get my Kratom Fed-Exed tommorow.
Anyhow, the point being is that I have to ask if anyone else has had similiar feeling while quitting the opiates with Kratom? I have tried to taper with other weaker opiates in the past, but just felt like I was miserable the whole time then ended up relapsing. WIth the Kratom it seems like there is something different. I feel like I am a month clean after just a few days (yeah I know there will also be problems when it comes time to quit the Krat- but I can deal with that). I feel much more balanced, I have amplified emotions (the good kind), and I almost feel like a kid again. Maybe it is something to do with the Kratom's interaction with seretonin levels?
Anyhow I feel it is possible to utilize this wonderful plant for curbing the depression and lethargy that goes along with opiate withdrawal. I haven't been successful yet in quitting, but I wont stop trying.
[edit- Pega] I'd like to hear more about other people's experiences with using kratom to come off opiates. I have had such a positive time, as have others, and I'd just like to hear more from people who have tried it about their experiences, to hopefully gain some insight on how common kratom usage for this purpose is and how common "glowing" responses are... Also good would be really any comments or tips for people using or thinking of using kratom to come off of opiates.

How humanity and Earth came to be has long been a source of intrigue and scientific inquiry. But Lloyd Knox said the study of the Big Bang holds promise for 21st-century society, too.
How humanity and Earth came to be has long been a source of intrigue and scientific inquiry.
But Lloyd Knox said the study of the Big Bang holds promise for 21st-century society, too.
Among the likely beneficiaries will be businesses that sift through �big data,� a buzzword for quantities of data so vast that they are difficult to process using traditional database and software techniques.
�Companies are interested in being able to learn things from that data so they can serve people in better ways, reach their customers better,� Knox said after a lecture he delivered yesterday to more than 140 people at COSI Columbus. �It�s what we train our students to do.�
Knox, a physics professor at the University of California-Davis, is a member of a team that is studying data from the Planck satellite.
The satellite created a sensation last year with its capture of an image of the universe when it was about 380,000 years old � a baby photo as far as cosmologists are concerned, given their belief that the universe is billions of years old.
The Big Bang is �a confirmed truth,� Knox told the audience, citing a wealth of information that has given scientists great insight into the way the universe was at its inception 13.8 billion years ago.
�The universe used to be hotter, denser, smoother and expanding more rapidly,� he said. �It�s extraordinary that we can talk about events 14 billion years ago with this kind of confidence.�
Simple natural laws discovered by Isaac Newton, theories developed by the physicist Albert Einstein, the observations of astronomer Edwin Hubble � all have contributed to scientists� understanding of the universe�s expansion, Knox said.
Light observable from Earth also is rich with information about the composition of the universe, he said. The light given off by celestial bodies such as the sun and other stars consists of a spectrum of color, as commonly observed in rainbows. But various elements such as hydrogen eliminate parts of the color spectrum, giving scientists clues about what makes up the cosmos.
Knox said many mysteries about the universe remain, including questions about how the Big Bang got its start and uncertainty about so-called �dark matter� and �dark energy.�
Yesterday�s lecture was held at COSI instead of on the Ohio State campus to draw a broader audience, said John Beacom, director of Ohio State�s Center for Cosmology and AstroParticle Physics.
After the lecture, attendees mingled with Knox and Ohio State faculty members, and postdoctoral and graduate students.
Tyler Loomis, 19, an Ohio State sophomore from Huber Heights majoring in physics, marveled at how closely new satellite data match what earlier generations of scientists, including Einstein, have theorized.
�It�s incredible to think that people can sit and think about something and for it to be so close to what�s observed� once technology catches up, Loomis said after Knox�s lecture. �As opposed to most of the natural sciences, most of (which) is done on observation, and then people sit down and think about why that is afterward.�

FLUSHING MEADOWS, N.Y. – With the score tied at 3-3, UCSB's match against St. John's University came down to court 4 where sophomore Ziad Sultan defeated St. John's Mike Lampa 6-7, 6-3, 6-4 in a three set marathon match to clinch the 4-3 win for the Gauchos.
After their two week layoff, the Gauchos got off to a good start by gaining the doubles point in the opening game of their East Coast road trip. Partners Miles Seemann and Andrew Riminton, who were only playing their second doubles match together, were first to finish their match with a 8-3 victory over Mihai/Every at court 3.
Axel Bouillin and Sasha Gryaznov followed up with a win at court 2, where they had a back and forth battle with St. John's Morth and Mozer. The Red Storm duo was up 6-5 at one point but couldn't hold onto their lead as Bouillin and Gryaznov came storming back to gain the doubles point for UCSB with a 9-7 win. Play was suspended at court 1 after the Gauchos clinched the doubles point.
Coach Marty Davis was obviously pleased with the doubles effort and said "it was the difference in the end."
Just as they did in their match at Santa Clara, the Gauchos dominated in doubles play to get out to a quick 1-0 lead, but this time the team battled in singles play to split their matches for the 4-3 victory and even their record on the season at 3-3.
Sophomore Axel Bouillin got the Gauchos on the board in singles play with a quick 6-1, 6-2 win over St. John's Mark Mozer to help UCSB grab a 2-0 lead.
The Red Storm pushed back and the Gauchos dropped their next two matches at courts 1 and 2. Senior Mbonisi Ndimande, who moved to the No. 1 position in singles for the first time this season, was defeated 6-1, 6-2 by Vasko Mladenov. Senior Benjamin Recknagel was shifted to the No. 2 position, where he lost 6-4, 0-6, 6-4 to Valentin Mihai.
With the game knotted up at 2-2, Coach Marty Davis said it "didn't look too good" for his team as all three remaining Gauchos lost in the first set. The game came down to the matches at courts 4, 5, and 6, leading to an exciting finish.
At court 6, freshman Jacob Johnson lost his first set 6-2 but battled hard to tie the match at one set apiece with a 6-7 win in the second set. Johnson couldn't keep up the momentum, however, and lost 6-3 in the third set.
At the No. 4 and No. 5 positions, both Ziad Sultan and Sasha Gryaznov let their leads slip in the first set, but came back to win in the second set. Gryaznov was able to put away Hugo Morth 6-3 in the third set to bring the game back to a tie at 3-3.
The thrilling match came to a close at court 4, where Ziad Sultan took down Mike Lampa with a clutch 6-4 victory in the third set. Coach Davis called the sophomore the "hero of the game" given that his victory gave the Gauchos the win.
UCSB will look to carry their momentum into tomorrow's match at #55 Princeton. Action is set to begin at 11:00 AM (EST).
UCSB 4, St. John's 3

Hey, folks. My fall 2009 column for Edible Rhody magazine is now online. As a reminder …
The focus of the column is on using seasonal, local ingredients in cocktails. Each column will have two recipes–one that I mix and one from a local bartender. Trust me, my focus will always be on classical techniques and interesting spirits.
So, now you can see whether I made good on that promise. First, though, the stunning cover:
Who knew there were cranberry bogs in Rhode Island? I didn't! Now, the column (if you want to read the text without squinting, click here):
Photo for the article is by local photographer Chip Riegel, and boy did I have fun mixing drinks for a photoshoot at 9am.
Apple Sage Old-Fashioned
For this drink, I was inspired by traditional Thanksgiving flavors, particularly apple and sage stuffing.
- 2 ounces Calvados apple brandy
- 1/2 ounce sage simple syrup (recipe follows)
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters (when I made this at home, I used Fee's Whiskey Barrel Bitters, which were superb in this, but aren't for sale in Rhody as far as I know)
- Apple slice, for garnish
Build in an old-fashioned glass over ice. Add garnish.
Sage Simple Syrup
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup fresh sage leaves
Add sugar and water to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. When sugar dissolves, remove from heat. Add sage leaves and stir. Cover and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain into a jar (discard sage leaves) and refrigerate. Will keep for one month.

Pippin's Pear of Aces
This drink is by Providence bartender Bonnie Siharath. At the time of writing, she was at Chinese Laundry, but that restaurant closed just a week before this issue was released. I have not yet followed up to see where she's landed. The food at Chinese Laundry was inspired by the tastes of East Asia, and this drink follows that theme.
- 1/2 fresh pear
- 1/2 stick of cinnamon
- 1 ounce Wokka Sake vodka
- 1 ounce Gray Goose pear vodka
- 1 ounce Asian pear nectar
- 1/4 ounce fresh squeezed lime juice
- pear slice, for garnish
Gently muddle pear and cinnamon in a cocktail shaker. Add ice, vodkas, nectar, and lime juice. Shake well and strain through a tea strainer into a chilled cocktail glass. Add garnish.

Ted Mann necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 373 diseños de 57 diseñadores freelance.
InJersey is a new network of local news blogs, expecting to launch in the next month. The sites will feature content posted by local newspaper reporter, with heavy contributions from community leaders, businesspeople, and citizens. The sites will be all about local community news and community conversation.
At launch, there will be six pilot sites -- Freehold, Collingswood, Vineland, Cherry Hill, Madison, and Flemington -- with more expected in the weeks and months to come.
See a demo of what the sites will look like here:
(the logo design that's in there now is just a placeholder)
Community activists, local business owners, municipal employees, and people with a passion about their town.
The InJersey logo needs to do double-duty. The two key layouts required:
1. For the town pages, the InJersey should be a secondary graphic alongside the much larger, more prominent town names -- e.g. MADISON/injersey
2. It should also be able to stand on its own for branding purposes -- on the root site, promotional materials, etc.
For #1, it's important that the town name be editable, as we will be adapting this graphic for multiple sites. For an example of a similar type of design, see:
For #2, please make sure the design is able to scale both large and small.
Other hyperlocal sites with nice logos:
Please submit logo in both town-name and stand-alone versions.
1. The final logos should be delivered in Photoshop and Vector formats.
2. The final logos should translate into black and white
Possible design concepts: road signs, map pushpins, directional arrows, conversation bubbles, "welcome to xyz town" or "now entering" signs

- Block Value: The amount of bonus block value on all items has been doubled. This does not affect the base block value on shields or block value derived from strength.
- On-Use Block Value Items: All items and set bonuses that trigger temporary increases to block value have been modified. Instead of increasing their block value amount by 100% like other items, they have all had their effect durations doubled. This applies to Glyph of Deflection, Gnomeregan Autoblocker, Coren's Lucky Coin, Lavanthor's Talisman, Libram of Obstruction, Tome of the Lightbringer, Libram of the Sacred Shield, the tier-8 paladin Shield of Righteousness bonus, the tier-5 paladin Holy Shield bonus, and the tier-5 warrior Shield Block bonus.
- Blessing of Sanctuary: This blessing now also increases stamina by 10%. This effect is not cumulative with Blessing of Kings.
- Righteous Fury: No longer has a duration or mana cost, remaining until cancelled or death. Also cancelled when a Paladin activates a different talent specialization.
- Seal of Vengeance and Seal of Corruption: These seals have been redesigned to deal substantially more damage. Now, once a paladin has 5 copies of the debuff from these seals on his or her target, on each swing the paladin will deal 33% weapon damage as Holy, with critical strikes dealing double damage.
- Shield of Righteousness: Now deals 100% of shield block value as damage instead of 130%.
- Ardent Defender: Redesigned. Currently, any damage taken by the paladin while at 35% health or below is reduced. Instead, any attack that would reduce the paladin to 35% health or below has its damage reduced. In addition, once every 2 minutes an attack that would have killed the paladin will fail to kill, and instead set the paladin's health to 10/20/30% of maximum.
- Vindication: Redesigned. Now lowers target attack power, is consistent and does not stack with Demoralizing Shout.
Blocking becomes a bit better, though Shield of Righteousness is nerfed slightly. The real problem with Block though, is that it just isn't as attractive as Avoidance.
Blessing of Sanctuary
I guess Blizzard is trying to set up a system where the first paladin does Kings+Sanctuary, while the second paladin does Might+Wisdom. This change does solidify Sanctuary the priority blessing for tanks. To be honest, the real issue is that Greater Blessings are done on a per-class basis, but the desired order depends on the specific spec. The real problem with Sanctuary is that it makes handing out Blessings more of a hassle.
Actually, you know what might be cool--but possibly overpowered--is if Sanctuary wasn't a separate Blessing, but rather an Improved Blessing of Kings. If you had the Sanctuary talent, your Blessing of Kings gives the 3% damage reduction. It's potentially too good, but this would make handing out Blessings so much easier.
Ardent Defender
This is a major change. I think the "unleapfrogable" nature of the new Ardent Defender is possibly too good. It's the equivalent of just getting 10% more health. I'd be somewhat surprised if this went Live as is.
The automatic Avoid Death is cool. The only issue I can see is not knowing whether the effect is available or on cooldown. This could be important for coordinating external cooldowns. If the effect is on cooldown, you might need to call for a Hand of Sacrifice to survive a burst of damage.
Other Changes
Righteous Fury becomes more stance-like. Seal of Vengeance becomes stronger, but this is balanced by the Shield of Righteousness nerf. The Vindication change allows a Prot paladin debuff the mob, freeing up a warrior or warlock to do more DPS.
Overall, Protection doesn't change that much. Blocking becomes a bit stronger, a Protection Paladin effectively gets more health, and she obtains a new cooldown and debuff. Coupled with the Death Knight nerfs, this should leave paladins in a decent position.

Re: A new external community from Wells Fargomdcrocker Mar 27, 2012 3:59 PM (in response to clamson)1 person found this helpful
Nice clean UI. In the post a question box, should warn that they need to login. Is it using an SSO with the website or will I need another login? Will you have icons for employees? I like that you do not call the starting folks "Lurkers".
Maybe it's me but the font looks a bit light, especially the breadcrumbs. Love the print preview button.
Do you need the action widget? If the only action is staring a discussion, use a button to open editor (can then add tags)
Did you think of using popular instead of recent?
Just a first look
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargoclamson Mar 28, 2012 9:52 AM (in response to mdcrocker)
Hi Mike,
Thanks for taking a look and for your questions and comments. Here are some answers:
[Mike] Is it using an SSO with the website or will I need another login?
[Craig (Me)] While we certainly discussed the possibility of single sign-on, we didn't go that route for a variety of reasons. The decision was made easier because we also wanted non-Wells Fargo customers to participate.
[Mike] Will you have icons for employees?
[Craig] We are doing some things now to differentiate between employees and other members and we're likely to do more in the future. Today, there is a Moderator badge and a Works@WF badge that applies to both employees and contractors. You can see these badges at the profile level and in the Top Contributors list among other places because we substitute them in for the status levels. At a future date, we may have a more consistent look for our moderator avatars so you can easily identify them.
[Mike] I like that you do not call the starting folks "Lurkers".
[Craig] We discussed many different options for our status levels. Lurkers certainly wasn't in the running.
[Mike] Maybe it's me but the font looks a bit light, especially the breadcrumbs.
[Craig] Yeah, there are some small fonts that aren'ts especially easy to read. I'm pretty sure we didn't alter those in any way from the "out-of-the-box" UI.
[Mike] Do you need the action widget?
[Craig] When you haven't signed on, it really doesn't serve much purpose based on the functionality that we're currently offering. We've discussed removing it in the non-signed on state, but it's not high enough on our priority list yet. Once you've signed on, there are many options within that widget so it has plenty of utility.
[Mike] Did you think of using popular instead of recent?
[Craig] I wasn't part of that decision. I can say that I like the idea of new questions appearing at the top so those questions don't get buried and go unanswered. We will need to do a better job over time of making the popular discussions more prominent in the interface.
Thanks again for your questions and feedback.
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargocflanagan17 Mar 27, 2012 4:51 PM (in response to clamson)
My rule of thumb - did it engage me in three seconds or less? Yes. Wow!!
- Clean crisp design.
- Great use of above the fold.
- VERY clear calls to action!
- Makes sense to me.
- And addresses several WIIFM I think your audience might have (1. where can I find more information? 2. I'm ready to talk about education planning. 3. Hmmm maybe I have a question - oh good I know where to ask that).
I see too many sites that don't address what I consider to be some basic design best practices - and in three seconds or less I could find those things.
Stay tuned, my April Jive Business Blog Post for the Jive Community will be about "community design best practices" and you'll be on my "Do" list
Great job! Good luck.
Gia Lyons - this is a great one!

Thanks for the positive feedback, Claire. We have been, and continue to be, very focused on simplifying the experience. We're happy that has translated into an engaging and intuitive experience for you.

UI is very modern and refreshing! Perfect blend of colors, imagery, typography. Easy access to FAQs and How to docs. I love the prominent search box in the middle of the screen to force users to search before posting a new question. Jumping back and forth from the community to the WF home page was very seamless.
I did run into an issue - I registered using my personal email address as my username, then got an email message saying "For your protection, we never allow email addresses to be visible in your profile information. As a result, we removed the information that you used to register." It looks like my account got disabled and it is not clear how I can change my username.
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargoclamson Mar 28, 2012 10:47 AM (in response to ccarcallas)
Hi Christine,
We're glad you like the UI and we were definitely hoping for "modern and refreshing."
While we expose FAQs for wellsfargo.com in the Resources module on the left-hand side, I've been concerned that the FAQs for the Wells Fargo Community aren't easy enough to find. I'm happy you found them and the other How To docs.
Our big orange box is certainly intended to make searching and asking questions easy and obvious. We do think that we can work with Jive to improve that experience and hope to do that at some point in the future.
Sorry you had problems registering. We're really conscientious about people unintentionally sharing personal information so we use our interceptors to identify email addresses, even during registration. With that said, your profile didn't show up in the moderation queue and I can't see any remnants of it in the admin console. We definitely want you to become a member so please just go through the sign up process again and just don't use your email address as your username. Let me know if you experience any other issues.
Thanks so much for sharing your insights.
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargotomadam Mar 29, 2012 11:30 AM (in response to clamson)
One coment - No place to ask a question.
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargoclamson Mar 29, 2012 12:54 PM (in response to tomadam)
Here's the top of our home page:
In our big orange box, there is the search functionality beneath Find Helpful Answers and a link to post questions beneath the Post a Question header in the lighter portion of the box. We actually don't believe these should be separate tasks. The way we'd like it to work is having a single field where they start asking their question and that searches for relevant content that already exists within the community. If the user sees content that they think will answer the question, they can go ahead and click on it to view the thread (or whatever other content it is). If they don't see existing content with that live search, they go ahead and complete the question and then enter more details.
Jive uses a very similar approach right in this community. If you go to the support tab and click on the Create a Case link in the Actions menu, you'll see what I mean. At some point, we may pursue something similar to that.
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargoclamson Oct 15, 2012 3:33 PM (in response to clamson)
Hello External Community Managers,
Raising awareness for our public-facing community at wellsfargocommunity.com is an ongoing effort for us. We just launched this new video that explains why people should join the Wells Fargo Education Planning Community.
Let me know if you think the video is successful in explaining the value of the community and I'd appreciate any other feedback you may have.
- Craig
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargocgrassi Oct 16, 2012 1:10 AM (in response to clamson)
Hey Craig,
That looks good! Is it going to be included in a marketing campaign for the site?
Re: A new external community from Wells Fargoclamson Oct 16, 2012 9:04 AM (in response to cgrassi)
Hey Chris,
We are definitely going to promote the video to raise awareness surrounding the Wells Fargo Community. We'll have tweets, Facebook posts, emails, etc., that link to the video. With that said, we have a limited marketing budget so we don't expect to be really getting it out there in a big way.
Our Education Financial Services team has sales people and we think this is a great tool for them to introduce the Wells Fargo Community to their contacts whether they're meeting in person, emailing, or talking on the phone. It also gives them something to run on a monitor at conferences.
I'd say that in most cases we'd like to get people directly to the site (versus showing the video first). We believe the site content is engaging and it's easy to use. The video gives us something to introduce the site for people who might want an explanation first.
Thanks for your question.
- Craig
