People often obsess over how long their blog posts should be. There's a lot of information out there regarding the "perfect" length of a blog post, but a lot of that data is conflicting.
Download this cheat sheet of key takeaways about the length of a blog post.
Content is really important when it comes to search rankings, so if you are going to leverage content marketing, you might as well do it right. But before we get into the ideal length for a blog post, let's first go over a few shocking myths:
Myth #1: Shorter is the only way!
The shorter-is-the-only-way school of thought believes that a blog post should be as brief as possible. They insist that once you cross the 200-character threshold or so, you're sunk. No one's going to read it.
Seth Godin is one of the greatest marketing minds of our age. How long are his blog posts?
They're really short.
That 66-word wonder is 3% the length of the article you're reading right now.
For Seth Godin, shorter is killer. It matches his audience, his style, his message, and his approach.
I am not Seth Godin.
The takeaway is this. Shorter is not always better. Shorter is sometimes better for some posts, in some situations, and some of the time.
Myth #2: Longer is the only way!
Another school of thought subscribes to the it-must-be-long-or-else approach.
I see people wondering about this all the time.
In a radical pendulum swing, away from the short-content fans, these content marketers rave over the long post. They insist that the most successful and high-converting blog posts should be in the multiple thousands of words.
My about page has over 2,000 words. If you count all the comments, you're up to more than 10,000 words, which is the equivalent of a small novel. By contrast, my landing page is only 20 words.
Yes. 20. With one zero.
I'm comparing pages that are not blogs, but the point is the same: long is not always better. It simply depends upon your purpose and the message you're trying to communicate.
Myth #3: People don't read content on the web.
This is the most egregious of the myths, and it's been around for a long time.
Back in 1997, Jakob Nielsen published an article titled "How Users Read on the Web." His answer? "They don't."
Nielsen was being blunt to make a point. His point was that people tend to scan online content.
The myth lives on, however. For a long time, marketers have churned out spun content, cheap content, and crappy content…lots of junk content. According to this strategy, they would throw mud on the wall of the Internet, thinking it would stick in the form of indexed pages, high-ranking keywords, and better search results. Their content was not written for people to read because, hey, people don't read!
That's just not true.
People do read content on the web, even if they tend to scan headlines or linger on pictures. The web is driven by content. The cliche "content is king" is true.
All three of these myths should be shunned in favor of a more strategic approach to content length. Longer is not necessarily better. Shorter is not necessarily better. And people do actually read your content.
It's not all about length.
When it comes to web content, length is only one of the factors to consider. You've got to consider a host of other issues. Take into account how all these other factors affect the length of your post.
- Substance – this is the most basic consideration. What are you trying to say? What's the substance? If you can say it in 100 words, then you may want to do so. If it requires 2,000 words, that's fine too.
- Style – some writing styles lend themselves to content that is short, brief, and to the point. Other times, the style is more conversational and interactive. Style will affect your content length.
- Frequency – how often you post affects how long your posts are. Some bloggers may post only once a week, but when they do, it tends to be a very thorough blog post. Other sites pop out short ones every day. It's just a matter of how much the content marketing team can manage. Good content takes time!
- Format – the way an article is formatted has a massive impact upon its readability. I tend to use a lot of subheadings, a sprinkling of images, and short paragraphs. It's important to break up your content into chunks so people can scan it.
- Purpose – every good content marketing plan has a purpose…many purposes, actually. The ultimate goal is conversions, but within this broad goal, there are sub goals. Other goals may be to spread brand awareness, drive social engagement, grow email lists, provide education or improve SEO. Different purposes will naturally mean differing length requirements.
- Audience – a huge part of content creation is knowing your audience: their needs, their interests, their passions, and their problems. Your goal is to create content your audience is going to read.
- Medium – not all content is words. When I post an infographic, I typically use around 100 words to introduce the topic. The rest of the words are in the infographic, which don't really translate into an accurate word count metric. If you post a video, meme or infographic, word count becomes irrelevant.
By no means am I saying that content length isn't important. I'm saying that length isn't the only thing you should be concerned about.
I'm also saying that length is just one factor out of many that influence a content marketing strategy.
Now that I've set forth this information, I'm going to make a case for longer content.
Longer is Usually Better
If you look at the data below, you will have to agree with me. Longer posts usually perform better on every level.
Let's go through the reasons why this is true.
The first is the fact that a higher word count typically results in more search traffic. There are more than 200 factors that influence how your content ranks in the SERPs. Evidence suggests that the more content your page has, the better chance it has of a top position in Google results.
SerpIQ studied search results rank based on content length. Here's what they found:
The higher the Google SERP position, the more content the page has. Notice that every one of these first page results has content exceeding 2,000 words.
Google's web crawler, Googlebot, is responsible for indexing your site. When it does so, it looks at every single word, tag, and particle of information (with a few exceptions like rich media files and dynamic pages).
There are different content types that get indexed — page title, headlines (H1, H2, H3, etc.), metadata, alt tags on images, etc.
The more content you have, the more of it gets indexed. The more that gets indexed, the better it will perform in searches and results. It's just that simple.
The more variety you have, the stronger your keyword potential
The sheer variety of words is also an important factor that can improve your SEO.
For instance, let's say you're creating a short blog post on "writing great headlines." You're aiming for 200 words. In a post consisting of a couple hundred words, you'll probably use the search term "writing great headlines" and maybe one or two variations on the theme. Good enough.
But what if you were writing an article that was 2,000 words long? You'll get to use a variety of other keywords that are related:
- "how to craft a killer headline"
- "creating great headlines"
- "writing better headlines"
- "tips for a great opening line"
- "an effective title"
- "the title of your post is important"
- "it's a winning headline"
- "because these words in the title…"
- "those first words and their magnetic power"
- "sizzling hot titles"
- "some of the most popular headlines…"
You can use a lot more variety when you have a lot more content. The more variety you have, the better you'll perform in search queries. Remember, Google isn't just delivering results that have an exact match to the query. It delivers results that are semantically related.
I googled "creating a great headline" and got these results:
The first result is about writing "magnetic headlines." The second result has to do with "catchy headlines." I didn't use "catchy" or "magnetic" in my query, but Google is smart. It knows that I'll like these results.
When you write longer posts, you'll be able to leverage the power of long tail keywords and latent semantic indexing. The spread of keywords creates a more effective matrix for search engine ranking potential.
The greater your word count, the more link-backs you'll get.
One of the biggest SEO factors is gaining high quality backlinks to your pages. The longer your post is, the more likely it is to gain backlinks.
I've mentioned before that long content garners more link-backs. Here's the proof from a Moz test:
The correlation couldn't be clearer.
From a sheer data perspective, you can't argue against this. Longer content gets more link-backs. More link-backs means better SEO. Better SEO means more conversions and revenue.
Longer content gets shared more
A popular online journal ran the numbers on how shareable its content was from a length perspective. What the team discovered was that longer articles got shared more.
Once the word count exceeds 1,500 words, it's in the golden share zone.
My own research on Quick Sprout confirms this. All of my posts that are more than 1,500 words receive 68% more tweets and 22% more Facebook likes than the articles with fewer than 1,500 words.
For all the talk about making posts "shareable," it turns out that the defining factor is content length.
I want to warn against getting hung up on content length. There's no magic formula on word count that's going to put your rankings through the roof.
At the same time, I've shown you the data that proves that longer content gets better ranking, higher indexing, and more sharing.
If you're looking for numbers, a post that is above 1,500 words seems to be in the zone of ideal length. I'd shoot for that if I were you.
Just because long content trends better doesn't mean that yours automatically will. It helps to have an active social presence, rock-solid copy, and stuff worth talking about.
How long are your regular posts? What differences have you noticed between long posts and short ones?

The property expert offers his words of wisdom on how to prepare your home for sale for the traditionally busy New Year selling period.
While the housing market typically slows in December as potential buyers put their house-hunting activities on hold to focus on the festive period, this is also the perfect time for sellers to get their homes ready for the seasonal pick up in the New Year.
January is traditionally one of the busiest times of the year for the housing market and properties that are well-presented are likely to reap the benefits by securing an early sale to a motivated buyer.
From ensuring children's toys are kept hidden in storage boxes, to removing pet smells, there are some relatively quick and inexpensive steps that can help you to present your property in the best possible light to a buyer.
1. Clear your property of clutter: Be ruthless in clearing items out of view, whether its old letters stacked up on a windowsill or multiple pairs of shoes gathered under a desk. Less clutter is important as it allows buyers to envisage how their furniture and belongings would fit into your property.
2. Give your home a Spring clean: Use some of the cold and dark winter evenings to give your home a thorough dusting and vacuum. Not only is it more appealing to potential buyers, but shiny surfaces can help to bounce light around, making your home seem brighter and bigger in the low-light months.
3. Make it smell nice: Bad smells can be off-putting to potential buyers, who may be deterred from staying too long if the smell is particularly unattractive. It means avoid cooking a meal the night before a viewing that may have a smell that will linger. Using flowers and pots of herbs can not only look attractive, but can also help introduce pleasant fragrances.
4. Remove all traces of your pets: This is particularly important in kitchens where some buyers may not like the idea of food and pets mixing. Elsewhere, vacuum sofas and make sure dog or cat hairs are not lingering on any surfaces. If possible, try to confine pets to one room while viewings are taking place.
5. Finally, stage your home: Imagine your property is about to be in a magazine shoot when your agent takes the photographs that will be used in the sales particulars. Freshly baked cakes and a dining table set ready for a party are just a few ideas that can help to create the right impression of a desirable place to live.
So, if you are thinking about moving in the New Year, try to use some of the time during this festive period to prepare your home for sale. It can help secure that all-important buyer later on in the house selling process.
Some information contained herein may have changed since it was first published. Zoopla strongly advises you to seek current legal and/or financial advice from a qualified professional.

It seems you can get a subscription for just about anything now. Whether it be organic vegetables or razor blades (I admit to having a subscription to a razor one!) you can get almost anything delivered regularly. Recently there was an offer I couldn't refuse… Honest Brew were offering a six beer taster box for £9 delivered.
Honest Brew are one of a number of companies offering a selected beer delivery subscription. It's certainly not cheap, but they do offer small run beers from micro breweries from all around the country and world. At £36 per month for 12 beers I will have to consider whether I want to keep it going, but I thought it was certainly work a punt for the taster.
It arrived this morning and I was pleasantly surprised by the initial selection. The great news was there was only one porter… anyone who knows my beer preferences knows I don't like porters! There were beers from Beavertown, Tiny Rebel, Camden Town and Wild Beer Co, some of my favourites right there.
I've already made a start and cracked open the can of Beavertown Gamma Ray American Pale Ale. I've already had the pleasure of this one from The Beer Cellar in Exeter, but it's great to have one at home sat in front of the telly. Despite its feisty 5.5% it's a wonderfully light and hoppy ale.
I think I'll wait til after the first proper delivery, despite the cost, so I can see what a typical box will be like after selecting my flavour preferences. There should certainly be no porters!
Anyone fancying a similar taster experience you can get one a bit cheaper via this link (and I get a free beer or two!).

Running GroupWise Messenger 2.0 with GroupWise 6.5
Novell Cool Solutions: Tip
By Wally Frist
Digg This -
Slashdot This
Posted: 24 Apr 2007
Will GroupWise Messenger 2.0 run with GroupWise 6.5?
We have access to GroupWise 7, but I can't schedule the upgrade from 6.5 to 7 for another month or so. In the meantime, some of our users have asked us to implement GroupWise messaging to make their lives better. Installing version 1.0, which comes with our currently running version of 6.5, just to turn around and upgrade it in a month seems like extra work. So, I wanted to see if there was a way to go straight to version 2.0.
Using our test LAN, here's what I found out ...
GroupWise Messenger is completely independent of GroupWise and uses only eDirectory user accounts. I didn't even install GroupWise 6.5 in the test tree. By calling it GroupWise Messenger, most people I've talked to (myself included) are under the impression that you need to have GroupWise mail installed in the tree, but you don't. You don't even need the GroupWise client.
End Results:
With my new findings, I installed GroupWise Messenger 2.0 into our production environment, (NetWare 6.5 servers running GroupWise 6.5). I'm happy to report they coexist well.
What about the GroupWise 6.5 Client, you ask? Because one can also use the GroupWise email client to send instant messages, I tried it using the 6.5 e-mail client and the 2.0 Messenger. That also works well.

Hexion Specialty Chemicals Launches Three New UV-Curable Inks For InkJet Printing Applications
Wednesday, October 18, 2006
Press release from the issuing companyCOLUMBUS, Ohio--Oct. 17, 2006-- Hexion Specialty Chemicals today announced the introduction of three new UV-curable ink sets for inkjet printing applications. The new inks are tailored to provide superior end user properties such as adhesion to difficult substrates, high flexibility, and low-dose curing. Hexion's new HexiLok inkjet ink is a UV-curable ink that provides excellent adherence to particularly problematic printing substrates such as glass, ceramics, and metals. This CMYK ink set product can be used for applications such as decorative glass or ceramic tile printing as well as automotive metal parts and coatings. The company's new HexiFlex inkjet ink is a UV-curable ink that can extend greater than 200 percent. This product is particularly suited for fleet graphics, where its high elongation eliminates cracking on corrugated vehicle panels and around rivets. It also is well suited to applications such as thermoforming. Available in CMYK, HexiFlex inkjet inks provide excellent adhesion on rigid and flexible PVC, polycarbonate, polyester, glass, aluminum, or stainless-steel substrates. For applications that require low-dose curing, Hexion has developed FlashCure inkjet ink. This CMYK ink set is a UV-curable ink that requires a dose of less than 20 mJ/cm2 for pinning (freezing the ink drop on the substrate) and is fully cured with less than 150 mJ/cm2. These inks were designed primarily for heat-sensitive substrates or high speed printing applications. Curing with a lower energy dose means that much thinner, rigid materials can be used without concerns of the substrate warping in the printer. "We are excited about these new products and the benefits they offer the industry," said Business Development Manager Paul Lindquist. "We continue to enable the digital print market with fresh ink solutions that are focused on satisfying the customer's most demanding needs."

Bespoke Seating
In addition to our standard range of seating for auditoria, offices and public areas, we can also manufacture bespoke seating to meet customers' specifications.
With our bespoke design and manufacturing service we can offer a range of products, materials and solutions to fit your exact requirements, taking into account style, space, functionality and finish. We regularly work with architects, contractors and venues to develop new seating solutions and can also modify any of our existing range to meet clients' specific needs.
Our bespoke seating can be designed to fit exactly into your auditorium with a wide range of fabric, vinyl and leather cover materials available. Here are just some examples of the different things we have done but if there is something else you are looking for then please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
Love Seats
These extra wide seats which can accommodate two people have been regaining popularity in recent times and we have made bespoke solutions for several theatres. Love seats are an attractive feature and are always popular with the audience. The Love Seats pictured here were bespoke designed for the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool where they were installed all along the back row of the Circle.
Fold-away Desks
The standard desks which can be fitted to our Diploma and Aspire lecture theatre seating run in a continuous fixed row along seat backs. If this doesn't meet your requirements then we can look at various other options such as these individual fold-away desks we produced specially for Oxford University.
DDA Seating – Removable Desks & Seats
Removable desks are frequently used in the front row of lecture theatres to provide space for wheelchair users. Whilst the majority of desks in this lecture theatre are fixed to the floor, the two larger desks on the front row are on wheels, allowing them to quickly and easily be removed and re-positioned as required.
Most auditorium seats in a theatre are also fixed to the floor but the front row of seats in this theatre includes a removable bank of 3 seats at beginning of the row (which can be seen where there is a double arm rest). Removable front row seats give more flexibility in venues like this where seats can be taken out to accommodate the required number of wheelchair users at each performance.
Storage Baskets
This university asked us to supply our lecture theatre seating with integral storage baskets under the desks, allowing students to store their belongings off the floor.
Upholstered Wall Panels
As part of this theatre refurbishment project we upholstered and fitted a new panel along the length of the wall on the back row. We refurbish a wide range of auditorium seating every year and our bespoke design capabilities allow us to tailor seats of all styles and designs.
Swivel Theatre Chairs & Banquet Seating
Swivel chairs are not just for the office and can provide a stylish seating solution in theatres and other venues. Evertaut refurbished this plush yet functional seating for the bar area of the stalls at the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool. We also refurbished and reupholstered the banquet seating seen behind the swivel chairs.
If you have a project that requires bespoke seating, call us today on 01254 297880 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

Colorado lawmaker posts powerful call-to-action on social media following church shooting
A letter that Colorado State Senator Mike Johnston posted on the doors of a black church in Denver sent a powerful message about the South Carolina church massacre.
Johnston got out of bed on Thursday night to post the letter on the door of the Shorter Community AME Church about the shooting at the Emanuel Church in Charleston.
"I drove over just to remind you and remind myself of the words from one of America's greatest preachers and one of the Lord's greatest prophets who said that 'Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.' With that truth in mind, in the wake of tonight's heartless stabs of hatred, I drove here to reaffirm the overwhelming supremacy of love," he wrote in the letter.
The state senator posted the letter on his Facebook with a call to action, asking white Americans to write notes and volunteer at AME churches around the country to show support.
"By Sunday morning America could blanket these churches with such overwhelming expressions of love that no one could walk through the doors of an AME church without feeling a flood of love and support from white men whose names they don't know, whose faces they can't place, but whose love they can't ignore," he wrote.
After seeing the letter, the church's pastor said "It touched my heart so greatly."
You can read the letter in its entirety below:

Surprise, surprise! The former head of the FDA, David Kessler, has said that Bayer, the company that manufactures creeptastic birth control pills Yasmin and Yaz, reportedly withheld company research involving increased reports of blood clots in its pills' users ... all the way back in 2004. The drug company "presented a selective view of the data, and that presentation obscured the potential risks associated with Yasmin."
It's no wonder the company is now facing more than 10,000 lawsuits, which claim Bayer didn't warn patients of the health risks of the Yasmin and Yaz birth control pills. They're also in trouble for marketing the drug for unapproved uses, like PMS and acne.
While troubling, it's not like we didn't already know these drugs present a higher risk ...
Thankfully, the FDA conducted their own independent research that proved there's a heightened risk of blood clots -- up to a 75 PERCENT greater chance over older forms of the pill! -- from newer birth control pills (such as Bayer's Yasmin and Yaz, Johnson & Johnson's Ortho Evra patch, and Merck's Nuvaring). Still, the fact that Bayer deceived the FDA and the public should freak us out.
When a friend of mine recently told me she wanted to go on a birth control pill, I pleaded with her to read up on any brand her doctor "recommended" to her. Because her doc's recommendation might simply be based on which pharmaceutical rep she's being pressured by this month, and now we know for certain that the FDA hasn't been exactly thorough or forthright about the risks associated with different brands. There's so much being hidden by drug companies and even the government, their warnings about risks involved with their drugs just aren't good enough. It only hurts not to consider independent research and what other women have to say.
The fact is, as much as we would like to, we can never blindly trust any prescription. We have to be our own health advocates and research the prescriptions we fill to truly weigh out the pros and cons of any drug -- especially when jumping into an even month-long commitment to a birth control pill.
Are you surprised Bayer kept info from the FDA? Do you always make a point to research your prescriptions, especially your birth control pills?

MARK HUGHES last night hailed Uefa's decision to lift the ban on Azerbaijan competing in the Euro 2004 qualifiers, declaring: "Sense has prevailed."
Wales go into a crucial phase of their qualifying campaign at the start of next season with maximum points from their opening four games after Uefa's executive committee met yesterday afternoon in Seville.
Hughes, who reiterated his determination to guide Wales into the finals tournament next summer, spoke to the Daily Post in America, where his squad is preparing for Monday's friendly against their hosts.
He said: "I'm obviously pleased with the decision. I was disappointed at the arbitrary manner in which Azerbaijan were suspended in the first place with-out anyone in the group being informed about it.
"Sense has prevailed and normal service can be resumed.
"We knew the Italians had been lobbying hard for this decision, as had Wales. And we were always more confident once their league started up again."
The fear was that Azerbaijan's qualifying results would be expunged because of their world-wide ban - and that would have robbed Wales of two victories, six points and a 6-0 boost to their goal difference.
Such a decision would have been a boost to Serbia-Montenegro, who had been held to a 2-2 draw in Belgrade by Azerbaijan - a result which put Wales in the driving seat in their quest to reach Portugal and their first appearance in a major finals since the World Cup of 1958.
Fifa imposed the ban on April 15 in response to a long-standing conflict between the Azerbaijan FA and the majority of the country's top-flight clubs. Football in the country had been in turmoil.
Hughes added: "It would have been really unfair to have had points taken away or teams given walk-overs. Now the games can continue as scheduled and we will retain our lead in the group. That gives us a great chance of qualifying."

We'll cover exactly what layer masks are, how they work, and why you want to use them. If you've been staying away from using layer masks with your Photoshop work because you thought they were somehow beyond your skill level, well, if you know the difference between black and white and can paint with Photoshop's Brush Tool, you already have all the skills you need!

Stealing Allentown's Treasures

On topic but different. Know you request readers stay on topic but isn't Schreiber's Bridge a city treasure? Did you see the poured concrete 3 foot high barrier installed on the left hand side and the original stones cut away and what...where are they, will they be put back after 15 St. complete?
- July 9, 2013 at 7:24 AM
- michael molovinsky said...
@7:24, yes, i believe that concrete barrier is a temporary solution until the 15th street bridge is complete. that side of the bridge was completely rebuilt last year, but then hit again by another truck. it's very hard to impossible for a tractor trailer to make that turn without hitting the bridge entrance walls. unfortunately, neither pawlowski or the city engineer has a feeling for our historic structures. neither voiced any support for saving the reading rd stone arch bridge, built the same year, in 1828.

The glass ornamented ceiling on the photo you just displayed was in my office for a year when my biz I was above the New York Urban store. It's a shame how it was destroyed.

alfonso @10:27, that office has quite the history. it also had been the office of charles snelling, up to the mid 90's. i suspect the window was saved, but not the history, maybe not even the future. time will tell how long the arena lasts.

I missed you at the Urban Dwellers boutique grand opening this morning. I guess that would have been good publicity on behalf of the administration to report about.....A minority owned urban clothibg store opening on the 800 block of Hamilton. Oh that is less than a half block from the arena site. What do you have to say about this?
- July 9, 2013 at 6:47 PM
- michael molovinsky said...
@6:47, the arena displaced 34 minority merchants, many of which were selling similar merchandise. at the debate on wfmz 69, one of city designated participants referred to the displaced merchants as a cancer. what do you have to say about that?
- July 9, 2013 at 8:05 PM
I know the owner of URBAN DWELLERS and I had a client tell me that because some of the shirts had marijuana leaves, the Chamber didn't want to endorse them. In fact, many people didn't know about it until the last minute because the owner had to send out his OWN FB invitations... SMH
Unsure why people keep saying DIVERSITY is the strength our City when you barely see any when it comes to businesses and events...

alfonso @10:59, comment 6:47 was antagonism toward me, as if this city really wants diversity on hamilton mall. although the comment may have originated with the blog mentor, there are other apologists for city policy which resent this blog. it's not enough that there is no political opposition, no press opposition, they still resent the dissent from one lone blogger.
- July 10, 2013 at 11:33 AM
Please, sir.
"Unauthorized, outlaw renegade blogger shamelessly promoting insurrection" would be a more apt and honest description.
I have every confidence that once the state-sponsored Phantoms finally arrive in the City Without (Spending?) Limits to start the 2014/15 AHL campaign ...
... people will flock to Hamilton Street by the thousands to buy shirts adorned with marijuana leaves prior to an exiciting ice hockey game at the Pawlowski Palace of Sport ...
... and then, after the game, stampede on over to the posh Cosmoplitan restaurant so as to gorge on fresh lobster, prime steak and expensive wine, of course.
Clearly, you have some sort of problem with Progress, Comrade Molovinsky.
Most respectfully as always,
- July 10, 2013 at 12:53 PM
Hi Michael, cannot speak for other situations mentioned in your post but did want you to be aware that we are using grant money obtained through the City of Allentown to restore the original facade above The Archive at 627 Hamilton Street.
When the facade put up by Emil Otto was torn down last fall we found the original facade from 1925 which still says American Medicine Company. We have a professional restoration company working on bringing it back to it's glory and it should be done in the next few weeks. This will include the medallions which were ruined when the facade was put over it 45 years ago.
Stop by in a few weeks to check it out!

Let's get the negative stuff out of the way fast.
The last time the Orioles opened a season with two straight losses they proceeded to . . . add on 19 more to remove any doubt about their final resting place in the standings.
That won't happen again. It's guaranteed. It says so right in manager Frank Robinson's handbook.
If there's any concern over 17 straight scoreless innings, a .119 team batting average and a sluggish 0-2 start everybody is doing a good job hiding the worry lines.

My reasons for creating this blog were pretty simple. I've been an avid blog reader for a couple of years, and with the introduction of a lot of free time accompanying my workterm, I decided to start my own style blog. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not that stylish, but I think I do have my moments sometimes.
My Style
It's something I'm still working on. Challenges for me mostly focus around dealing with the weather in NL Canada. I can say with certainty that 10 months of the year it's cool enough to wear a jacket, not including the period where the ground freezes and it turns into marshmallow land. The changing lifestyle of a co-op student means I go between university semesters and work-term placements, which have very different definitions of acceptable. With the help of this blog I'm taking more risks in my fashion choices while keeping to a reasonable budget and learning what works and what doesn't!
21 Random things about Me:
- I drink tea whenever possible, and its my most frequented beverage.
- Living in the ever-present fog keeps me at my palest.
- I have some compulsions, including but not limited to: moving furniture, keeping school notes organized, meeting deadlines.
- I bake when I'm bored.
- I also prefer to give away my baked goods instead of eating them.
- Drama was my favourite thing about high school.
- When not forced into mandatory classes, I like school.
- I don't like mornings but my body usually doesn't let me sleep in.
- I rotate music like clothing
- I hate doing laundry
- When no one is home, I've been known to sing really really loud to whatever I'm currently obsessed with. Adele is frequently belted out in my house this month.
- I've also been known to do this when I forget people are home. Embarrassing when I do that.
- Shopping is one of my favourite tasks.
- That said, I'm incredibly cheap.
- I could live off carbs, bread and pasta. LOVE. I'n trying to cut down in the hope of making my pants less tight!
- I'm not completely addicted to my Blackberry, but it's close.
- My most prized possession is my Nikon D90.
- I love photography but I don't do nearly enough to improve my photos.
- I'm very vocal about what I want.
- I'm a sugar person. I have many sweet teeth.
- I'm an only child, I was spoiled growing up, and I continue to embrace it :)
If you have any questions feel free to ask, or email me at email@example.com!

Here's block two, lots of Half Square Triangles, HST's to use the jargon, so lots of points to match and plenty of opportunities for inaccuracy. The result is a not good, not totally bad and of course, one corner block is different to the other three.
I'll probably leave it like this and hope the quilting disguises its quality and somehow I'll cope with the fact that it measures less than 6.5 inches when the time comes to join it to adjacent blocks!!
The butterflies need some attenae, not yet decided whether to embroider as suggested by the designer or to use metal foil and pressure sensitive glue.
The 3rd block was a real challenge for me, with 48 pieces to make a 6" square! I wondered what would help improve my accuracy and produce matching points and seams, and a final block of the correct size.
In my research I came across these articles on fabric preparation, on the merits (or not) of using start and sizing
OK, the points are all perfect but they are much better than I've achieved before with such small pieces of fabric. The next time I need to piece like that I plan to use Spray Starch and to compare the commercial can with my own solution. Watch this space for the results.
Meanwhile, block 4 is much more my style and here's a peep at the fabrics ...
I'm trying to use a little of what I'm calling the key fabrics in each block to keep some overall cohesion.
Watch this space for the finished block ... another design arrives tomorrow but I always knew I'd only be ahead at week one.

Growing up, I don't have many memories where my mother didn't have some project she was working on. When I was very young, she was a puppeteer. She made her own puppets using paper mache, old bathroom rugs (Cookie Monster puppet) or foam rubber and leftover fabric. My father built her a stage and she performed at birthday parties and church functions. She even wrote her own scripts.
|iPad Covers
She also made all of our Halloween costumes and we never lost a costume contest. She knitted. She made dresses for my sister and me. Later in life, she made wooden 2-D dolls in all different themes and costumes and sold them at craft shows and later she learned how to make porcelain dolls where she poured the molds and painted their faces and made the clothes. The dolls are a beautiful illustration of her boundless talent. At nearly 78, she's still going strong and I have picked up a few of her habits, I love to sew and crochet too. Last fall we started our own business together selling my Kindle, Nook, and iPad covers,
|Hand made Scarves
And crocheted scarves, and her hand-knit scarves.
My husband and I designed and built a booth and once we booked our first show and filled it with our wares, the booth looked beautiful.
|Our Booth
We learned a few things along the way and are looking forward to making this an even better year to capitalize on our talents.
I love having this chance to have a little business with my mom. I love that she never stops creating. And I love that she has passed her love of crafting onto me.

© Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum
What a year! Each one just gets better and better, and 2013 was full of accomplishments. Most notably, we had our best year ever for attendance and gift shop sales. Based on direct feedback and on-line comments, our visitors were very pleased with their museum experience. In fact, their reviews on TripAdvisor earned us the top ranking for Fairbanks attractions for the second year in a row! It's never too late to submit your review, which you can do by clicking on this link.
Other highlights from 2013 include:
- We hosted a number of school field trips at the museum and offered rides in the Snow Flyer to almost 50 children during Tired Iron week.
- Historic fashion consultant Abigail Cucolo joined our staff for several months and accomplished a whirlwind of projects. She led fashion tours, wrote blog posts, organized our storage room, cataloged over 700 items into a database, repaired garments, and added over 30 new outfits to the galleries. She also curated our "Beauty and the Bird" exhibit and created several new displays, including ones on undergarments, Fortuny gowns, and WAVES uniforms.
- Our docents continued to provide valuable support, from educating visitors and providing security during private receptions, to dusting cars and helping Willy with innumerable repair projects in the shop.
- We worked hard to improve the visitor experience and began offering free audio tours with admission. One guest wrote of the audio tour: "Very good and really adds to the experience."
- We acquired J. Parker Wickham's library and now have a wonderful collection of resources for research.
- We participated in the Vernon L. Nash Antique Car Club annual show, Golden Days Show and Shine, and a fairly soggy Golden Days Parade. We were delighted to be selected to carry the winner of the Miss World Eskimo Indian Olympics pageant and her court in our 1919 Pierce-Arrow.
- We added a number of videos to our YouTube channel, which receives about 2,500 views a week.
- We had five articles published in national magazines, including The Bulb Horn, Horseless Carriage Gazette, Air-Cooled News, and The Classic Car. The museum was also featured in articles in Alaska Magazine, The Ruralite, and Old Cars Weekly.
- Our historian attended the National Association of Automobile Museum's annual conference in Lincoln, Nebraska, and was elected to the NAAM board of directors.
- Our manager attended a number of national and regional events, including the Chickasha and Bakersfield Swap Meets, the Scottsdale auctions, and the Hershey Swap Meet.
- With the help of some great volunteers, we got one of Fairbanks's first Dodge automobiles running again and helped drive it to Valdez to commemorate the first automobile trip to the coast. The story is posted here.
- In July we hosted a full house for a presentation about the 1908 Great Race by Jeff Mahl, great grandson of the winning car's driver, George Schuster. He gave a fabulous program and we thank everyone who came (and NAPA for sponsoring the event!).
- We added three automobiles to the Fountainhead Collection, including a 1902 Knox, 1906 Pope-Toledo, and 1910 Schacht. The Pope-Toledo won several awards before we shipped it north, including First in Class (Antiques) at the Kirkland Concours d'Elegance, and Third in Class (A-1 Antiques) and the Ansel Adams Special Award at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
- The majority of the museum automobiles got a tune-up and some road time this year. Here are a few out getting some exercise--can you identify them all?
Thank you all for another great year!
Coming to Fairbanks to see the Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum and other area attractions? Support the museum by staying right here at Wedgewood Resort. All guests receive half-price admission to the museum!

Release date:May 10, 2013
Studio:108 Media/Paladin
Director:Zack Bernbaum
MPAA Rating:N/A
Screenwriter:Michael Hamilton-Wright
Starring:Bruce Greenwood, Parker Posey, Callum Blue, Allie MacDonald
Plot Summary:
Adan Kundle (Bruce Greenwood), CEO of a major advertising agency, is discovered unconscious in front of a wall of TVs. When he wakes in the hospital, Adan can only communicate through advertising slogans. There he meets Karen Hillridge (Parker Posey), the hospital's Head of Charity Foundation, who has a past history with Adan. Unable to stay in the hospital, and while waiting for long term care placement, Karen reluctantly decides to take Adan into her home for what is to be a few days.

Karen gradually uncovers Adan's background and his antagonistic business relationship with Lucas Foster (Callum Blue), the president of the advertising agency that Adan owns. As Lucas moves closer to taking over the agency by attacking Adan's mental capacity, Adan becomes more involved in helping Karen and Meghan mend their relationship.

Carfilzomib, CAS number 868540-17-4, is a late-stage, selective next-generation proteasome inhibitor for patients with multiple myeloma. Developed by Onyx, carfilzomib has the ability to irreversibly bind to and inhibit the chymotrypsin-like activity of the 20S proteasome, which is an enzyme that degrades unwanted cellular proteins. The subsequent inhibition of the proteasome-mediated proteolysis creates a build-up of polyubiquinated proteins. This build up may cause apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and even inhibit tumor growth. LGM Pharma is a provider of the API carfilzomib for research and development.
With a fast track status given to Onyx for a rolling submission of carfilzomib by the FDA in January 2011, two Stage 3 clinical trials are underway. The first of the Stage 3 trials, known as ASPIRE, is an international and randomized trial. This trial combines carfilzomib with lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone, versus lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone alone, as a potential treatment for relapsed patients with multiple myeloma. The second of the Stage 3 trials is deemed FOCUS. This study of carfilzomib as a single agent in the relapsed and refractory setting is designed to support a regulatory filing in Europe. Additional ongoing clinical studies in patients with multiple myeloma are also underway, including a carfilzomib Phase 1b/2 study for patients with advanced solid tumors.
Previous trials include a single-arm, Phase 2 trial in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. Carfilzomib, as a single-agent showed a positive response in this trial of 257 patients, with a 36{ea91ce937acfcedac5cfadbb01091089b0d0efaf901d2d8d1bf3570326cfc2cb} response rate. In another Phase 2 trial of patients with refractory multiple myeloma carfilzomib was combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone. The durable response rate of 78{ea91ce937acfcedac5cfadbb01091089b0d0efaf901d2d8d1bf3570326cfc2cb} led researchers to initiate the current Stage 3 study, ASPIRE.
Clinical trials have shown carfilzomib to be effective when administered for periods of 14-23 months, with no overlapping or new incidence of toxicity. While 22{ea91ce937acfcedac5cfadbb01091089b0d0efaf901d2d8d1bf3570326cfc2cb} of patients in Phase 2 trials tolerated treatment well for over a year, adverse effects have been noted. Patients receiving grade 3 or higher treatment showed treatment emergent effects including thrombocytopenia, anemia, lymphoenia, neutropenia, pneumonia, fatigue and hyponatremia. However, current studies show carfilzomib to have a positive safety profile, including low rates of neuropathy.

Blackhawks captain Toews sees Selke as 'huge honor'by Brian Hedger
CHICAGO -- It's not really surprising anymore to see Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews named as a finalist for the Frank J. Selke Trophy, which is awarded annually to the NHL's best defensive forward.
That recognition year after year is a major accomplishment in the mind of the 25-year old, who was named a finalist Thursday after winning last season. It's the third time in the past four seasons Toews has been a finalist.
Boston Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron and Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar are the other finalists.
"You look at the other two guys, to be in company with those two players is a huge honor, two centermen that were [big] parts of their Stanley Cup-winning teams in the last couple of years," Toews said. "I guess to be compared to those players is what I'm going for as a hockey player. It's a huge accomplishment for me."
Toews finished third in scoring for the Blackhawks with 68 points (28 goals and 40 assists), was second in plus-minus (plus-26) and second in takeaways (51).
He was fifth in the NHL in faceoff percentage (.572), second in the Western Conference with 884 faceoff wins, and missed the final six games of the regular season with an upper-body injury.
Toews has played well in a tough Western Conference First Round series against the St. Louis Blues, which is tied 2-2 heading into Game 5 on Friday at Scottrade Center (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, RDS2, FS-MW, CSN-CH).
Evidence of Toews' talent and leadership were on full display Wednesday at United Center, when the Blackhawks defeated the Blues 4-3 in overtime. Trailing 3-2 late in the third period, Toews' line came up with the game-tying goal by Bryan Bickell with 3:52 left in regulation.
"Special player," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said of Toews. "We're very fortunate to have him as our captain. Johnny does his thing. [He] led the way [Wednesday] night when we were down there. That line scores a big goal when time was running out, but defensively [and] offensively, he just plays the right way."
The Selke Trophy was first awarded at the end of the 1977-78 season. Prior Blackhawks winners include Troy Murray (1986), Dirk Graham (1991) and Toews (2013).
The winner, selected by a vote taken by the Professional Hockey Writers' Association at the end of the regular season, will be announced at the NHL Awards Show on June 24 in Las Vegas, Nev.
"I'm excited," Toews said. "It's an honor. I owe a lot to my teammates for getting recognition like that, so I think for any player to be nominated for an award is always a reflection not only of his own ability but more so the teammates and the linemates he's playing with. [I've] been in a good situation all year, just like last year."

Due to the growth of the internet, SEO and content marketing are among the top marketing tools that businesses have at their disposal. Before most people buy an item or use a service, they likely search for information about that service or product online—whether it is to check out reviews or find out where to buy the item. Most people rely on search engines, such as Google to search for information. Search engines display results in order. For a company or business to rise to the top of search engines, they must use strong SEO and content marketing practices.
SEO Versus Content Marketing
Every major search engine ranks search results based on what they consider most relevant to users. Search engine optimization, also known as SEO, refers to a set of techniques that is used to help optimize content so that it comes up first in search engines. As most people don't bother to scroll past the first page of search results, having content that ranks high in search engine results is vital for any business.
Content marketing refers to producing valuable, high-quality content that is relevant to your audience. Content refers to articles, blog posts, videos, website content, and infographics. It encompasses content that you use to engage your target market.
Content marketing and SEO are very different. SEO is much more technical than content marketing. Also, the two disciplines have different goals. Search engine optimization attempts to improve your company's visibility in search engine results. Content is used to attract new customers, provide information and establish your brand's identity.
The best approach for a marketer or a brand is to ensure that SEO and content teams work together. Any successful marketing campaign relies on a cohesive team.
Create Content That Will Skyrocket to the Top of Search Engines
Your content team and SEO team must work together to create quality, original content. People that search the internet for information want quality results, and the major search engines try to provide this by displaying valuable content at the top. High-quality content has a higher SEO value than low-quality articles, blogs, and useless information. Provocative, original blog posts, infographics, and articles rank higher in search engines than content that doesn't add anything new. Therefore, content and SEO teams should work together to produce relevant content that has real SEO value.
Boost the Ranking of Content with Keywords
It is critical that your content and SEO team work together to use keywords in a way that will increase the ranking of content. Your SEO team should know which keywords to incorporate into the content to improve search engine rankings and visibility. Loading up an article with keywords with no regard to whether or not they flow within the content is known as "keyword stuffing" and is penalized heavily by search engines. Therefore, your content and SEO team must work together to figure out a way to weave the keywords naturally into the content so that it sounds natural.
It is evident that content and SEO teams must collaborate if they want to produce engaging content that will shoot to the top of search engine results. The above tips will help your SEO and content teams work more efficiently together.

Butler 'extremely happy' with deals
NORTH BAY, Ont. — The North Bay Battalion will offer yet another fresh look when the Owen Sound Attack pays an Ontario Hockey League visit at 7 p.m. Thursday, while the opponents figure to feature a couple of familiar faces.
North Bay made its third trade in seven days Tuesday, acquiring overage right winger Jake Henderson and a 10th-round pick in the 2021 OHL Priority Selection from the Kitchener Rangers for an eighth-round pick in 2019.
The Battalion got centre Matthew Struthers, a 14th-round pick this year and a second-rounder in 2020 from Owen Sound for overage centre Brett McKenzie last Wednesday. On Saturday, the Troops sent Cam Dineen to the Sarnia Sting for fellow defenceman Braden Henderson, five OHL Priority Selection picks from 2019 to 2022 and two conditional picks, in 2024 and 2025.
McKenzie and defenceman Brady Lyle, who was dealt to Owen Sound on Oct. 22 in the trade that got the Troops goaltender Christian Propp, should be in Attack uniforms, while rearguard Nick King, acquired Oct. 23, will dress for the Battalion against his former Owen Sound teammates.
"From my perspective, I'm extremely happy," Stan Butler, Battalion director of hockey operations and head coach, said Wednesday of the most recent acquisitions.
"I think we were going to have four defencemen graduate at the end of the year, and by bringing in Henderson and getting Dineen out, it now put us in a situation when we only have three graduating. We didn't have enough '99 centre icemen on our team, so I thought it was important to get that, which we accomplished with Struthers.
"And then when you really look at the draft-pick thing, four of the next five years we now have two seconds each year, as well in 2019 we didn't have a second and now we have one. And we were able for a good price to bring in a really quality, character overage player to help some of our younger guys the last part of the season."
Butler noted that the plethora of picks acquired before the OHL's final trade deadline, which fell at noon Wednesday, puts pressure on the Battalion scouting staff to maximize their use.
"I told our head scout: 'The cupboard now is very full. Don't screw up.'"
Even with the departures of rushing rearguard Dineen and McKenzie, who paced the Troops' offence last season, Butler said, the Battalion should acquit itself well.
"We like to think our team will still be competitive, since our goaltending's got turned around and Christian's playing. Since Christian's playing, (Julian) Sime's numbers have got a lot better. Our record hasn't been bad, and we like to think that, by bringing those three guys in and releasing the players that we did, we're at least as good a team as we were beforehand."
Said Butler: "Sometimes it's a situation here that's based on opportunity. We've seen that with Justin Brazeau with his development, and Luke Burghardt coming in here where he got more opportunity. So I think both these guys are good young players and, given the situations they were in, there were a lot of good young players ahead of them that they wouldn't get the opportunity that they're going to get here. So far, I think, in Matthew's case he's shown us that he's capable of bringing what he needs to bring in order to get that opportunity."
Forward Henderson, no relation to the 17-year-old defenceman, boasts his own attributes, noted Butler.
"Obviously, the first thing is he's one of the better penalty killers in the league, and our penalty kill is under 80 percent, so we're hoping that that's an area he can really help us. I think, if you looked at his bio, he was voted the most popular player last year in Kitchener."
Henderson elicited chuckles with his account of learning he was heading to North Bay from Kitchener.
"The initial reaction was, 'It's going to be cold.' I heard some stories about the coldness up here, but we know it's a rich-history club as well.
"I can't complain about anything. They brought me in, so they must want me a little bit. It's going to be a good opportunity to show my skills off and show the guys that I can play with them as well and hopefully have a good run in the playoffs."
Defenceman Henderson said he looked forward to playing his game after talking with coaches Sunday before making his Battalion debut in a 6-3 victory over the visiting London Knights.
"I was able to talk to them when I first got here, and we were kind of on the same page. They wanted me to fill in the role of an offensive defenceman and move the puck well."
Butler said that two forwards who have been sidelined for two months each are about to return.
"Rhys Forhan comes back in the lineup this Thursday, which is great, and Daniel Walker should be about a week behind him."
Right winger Alex Robert has been released after clearing OHL waivers, and defenceman Eric Allair has been reassigned to the affiliated Powassan Voodoos of the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League.
North Bay has a won-lost-extended record of 15-19-6 for 36 points, third in the Central Division and tied with the Ottawa 67's for sixth in the Eastern Conference. Owen Sound is 16-16-6 for 38 points, fourth in the Midwest Division and eighth in the Western Conference.
The Battalion visits the Barrie Colts on Saturday night and plays host to the Peterborough Petes on Sunday to complete weekend play.

TORONTO (Reuters) - Shares in Catamaran Corp CCT.TO jumped 12 percent after the pharmacy benefits manager reported a sharp jump in profit and revenue and said future prospects were promising as customers navigate the complexity of the new U.S. healthcare environment.
The company said revenue was up 53 percent at $4.9 billion in the first quarter, helped by the addition of new customers, the inclusion of results from its Restat acquisition and growth in business from Cigna Corp (CI.N), which is migrating its customers onto Catamaran's claims processing system.
Catamaran, formed from the merger of SXC Health Solutions and PBM Catalyst Health Solutions, helps administrators of group health care plans reduce their prescription drug costs.
Executives at Catamaran told analysts on a conference call following the report they are evaluating other merger opportunities as the "best way to deploy capital on behalf of our shareholders" and expect more deals this year.
Catamaran said its net income attributable to the company was $63.4 million, or 31 cents a share, compared to $51.4 million, or 25 cents, a year earlier.
On an adjusted basis Catamaran earned 50 cents a share.
Analysts had on average expected the company to earn 44 cents a share on revenue of $4.6 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
The company raised the lower end of its forecast range for the year, and now expects adjusted earnings per share of between $2.10 and $2.22.
The "beat and raise validates our view that there are no holes in this craft's hull," Jefferies analyst Brian Tanquilut wrote in a note.
By mid-morning, the company's stock was trading over C$5 higher on the Toronto Stock Exchange, at C$46.66.

On November 20, 2014, President Obama made an announcement regarding immigration reforms called the Immigration Accountability Executive Action.
As part of these immigration reforms, the President offers Deferred Action, a discretionary and temporary protection from deportation or removal from the United States – to two groups of people on a case-by-case basis:
Applicants must demonstrate that they meet strict requirements, then submit biometric information and pass a background check. Certain crimes may disqualify a person seeking deferred action. An applicant who meets the criteria will be eligible to apply for authorization to work in the United States.
Should an application receive deferred action and authorization to work, such benefits will be granted for 3 years. After 3 years, assuming the presidential executive order is still in effect, the benefits can be renewed in 3-year increments.
An applicant who does not satisfy the requirements, and is therefore denied such benefits, may be subject to deportation.
Deferred Action does not grant legal status, nor is it a pathway to lawful permanent residence or U.S. citizenship. It also does not automatically grant authorization to travel outside of the U.S.
Those individuals who are currently eligible to apply for or who now have deferred action under the previous terms announced on June 15, 2012 by President Obama will be eligible to apply for or renew deferred action under this recent announcement. This means that they are eligible to renew deferred action for 3 years instead of 2 years.
The following chart summarizes the above mentioned updates to the previous immigration policy for Deferred Action, as adjusted by the Executive Action of November 20, 2014.
Old PolicyAnnounced6/15/2012
Although the specific procedure on how to apply for this newly announced deferred action has not yet been released, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has 180 days from November 20, 2014 to implement this procedure and begin accepting applications. However, you can prepare some information for this deferred action process to save some time in submitting your documents once USCIS has finalized and formalized the process. To take the early first steps, please contact our office today to schedule an appointment.

text: OPPD's innovative rate attracts big business OPPD April 4, 2017 The Omaha Public Power District proved to be an innovative energy partner, playing a key role in helping to bring Facebook's new data center to Papillion, Neb. The district's recently approved rate plan, Rate 261M, is a unique and powerful example of how OPPD works to meet the needs of large companies, particularly those who seek more renewable energy, while bringing broader economic benefits to all of its 369,500 customer-owners. "We're on a mission to connect the world, and we're committed to powering this connectivity with the smallest footprint possible," said Peter Freed, renewable energy manager at Facebook. "Our goal is to reach 50 percent clean and renewable energy in our electricity supply mix for our data centers in 2018, and our work with OPPD brings us one step closer." OPPD President and Chief Executive Officer Tim Burke said the utility's work with Facebook is in line with its own mission – to provide affordable, reliable, environmentally sensitive energy services. "We want to lead the way we power the future," said Burke. "We do that by being collaborative with our customers and looking for solutions that are in the best interests of all those we serve, now and in the future." That's how Rate 261M – an extension of Rate 261 for large-power, high voltage-transmission-level customers – was developed. Public power model afforded flexibility "We have recognized the need to continue to evolve our rate offerings to attract new companies and assist with current companies' expansions," said Tim O'Brien, manager of Economic Development for OPPD. "And we were able to create a new plan, within a rate framework we already had to support this trend." Burke added, "The public power model enables us to be agile and customer-focused, so we were able to respond quickly with a workable solution, not only for Facebook, but for future economic development projects that would benefit our service territory." Rate 261M gives customers flexibility in how they meet their energy goals, while charging fair and reasonable rates that cover OPPD's fixed costs, including generation and system capacity, transmission and administration. After thorough review and analysis from OPPD representatives and independent rate consultant, The Brattle Group, the OPPD Board of Directors unanimously approved the final version of Rate 261M in January. The entire process, from conception to implementation, took just four months, albeit a work-intensive four months, involving collaboration across a number of departments within OPPD. Qualification for Rate 261M To qualify for this rate, a customer must be large enough to meet certain criteria, such as requiring a minimum of 20 megawatts (MW) of demand for 161-kilovolt (kV) service and 200 MW of demand for 345-kV service. A ramp-up period of 18 months would be allowed before that minimum usage requirement kicks in. A customer also needs to own or acquire its own substation. OPPD will be a fully integrated service partner, managing the process and providing service. Mutually beneficial What does the customer get in return? In Facebook's case, they are able to work with OPPD to procure 100 percent renewable energy for their new data center in Sarpy County. Plus, the most unique feature of the rate structure gives them the ability to access the market for the energy component of their bill. That way, they have the opportunity to meet their specific energy needs through renewable resources. "OPPD has done the hard work of carefully evaluating their rates to find every value for the renewable energy buyer without shifting costs to the other customers," said Letha Tawney, director of utility innovation at World Resources Institute (WRI). WRI is a founding partner in the Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance, a non-governmental organization-led network supporting the renewable energy goals of the Fortune 500. "OPPD has shown that public power can meet the ambitious demand for clean energy from large customers, and we hope other public power agencies take up the example," Tawney said. "The scale of the demand from corporate buyers is only growing." Brett Illers, the senior program manager for Sustainability at Yahoo, agrees. "There is a revolution happening right now in sustainable energy markets," he said. "Large customers must work with utilities on renewable energy, and we're pleased to see OPPD shares this vision with its adoption of Rate 261M. Yahoo has long advocated for these types of solutions, and we look forward to adopting this rate to help bring our growing Nebraska facilities to complete renewable energy consumption." Yahoo maintains a data center in La Vista. OPPD's Rate 261M will be able to accommodate a growing number of companies like Yahoo and Facebook that want more flexibility when it comes to meeting their energy goals. "It truly is a win-win," said Burke. "And we expect this rate will attract more big companies to our area. This is an exciting time for OPPD, our customers, the community, and the state of Nebraska."

The new tabloid-sized San Francisco Chronicle Book Review arrived on my doorstep today, and I must pronounce it a success.
The Chronicle's editors reduced the size of the section to save printing costs, but it has the unintended consequence of making the review feel more intimate and cohesive. Editor Oscar Villalon has taken the opportunity to introduce some fun, bright features to the review, like a literary cartoon drawn by Lisa Brown, a children's book author and the wife of Daniel Handler, and a section called "Blurbs." In the February 24th edition, the Blurb section asks writers Anne Lamott and Jack Bouleware to name the best book that features
There is also a new section named "Lit Pics" where the editors recommend previously reviewed titles. In another addition, kids reflect on the best books they have read recently. There are still literary listings but they get a pick-me-up with a column named "In Town" which highlights some author talks. The Chronicle's best-seller lists are also there.
Of course, it would be great if the book review got an extra two pages. There are four major reviews in the section and five shorter reviews of books for young readers. That's around the same number of reviews that have been appearing in the old broadsheet format. It's hard to imagine that adding a few more pages would cost a lot, but apparently it does.
Last note: The cover reviews are of Philip Fradkin's new biography, Wallace Stegner and the American West and Irving Yalom's book Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Terror of Death. Both books were praised.
