Worcester's Commissioner of Public Health has been working on a new report – "The Health of Worcester 2011". The report presentation that Dr. Magee has giving to various groups in the City uses striking visual representations of local and state data to highlight the public health issues Worcester faces. What rises to the top? The three primary causes of premature death in Worcester are obesity, smoking, and opiate overdose.
The report showed 27 percent of adults in Worcester are obese, and another 35 percent are overweight. The number of obese children entering the city's schools has doubled nationally to 10 percent over the past 30 years; in the city that number exceeds 18 percent, the report said. One in five city high school students is obese, the report said, with the percentage even higher among Hispanics and low-income.
Adults in the city are also dealing with diabetes and cholesterol issues. Cardiovascular disease is the city's number two cause of premature death. Public health officials here want to decrease obesity and people being overweight by 5 percent in five years.
The Commissioner highlights large portion size, high consumption of fast food, and poor cooking and buying habits as the culprit of this extreme increase in overweight and obesity. While these are of course true, its also important to look at the way our environment, policies and media influence peoples general food habits. Strategies that address individual behaviors as well as our food environments and policies are most important. Addressing one without the other will not solve the many diet-related problems our country faces. Obesity, hunger, and diet-related disease (among many other issues) are all just symptoms of a very broken national and international food system.
The Commissioner has given the presentation to City Council, the Food & Active Living Policy Council, the City Manager, and will continue to present the information to relevant groups and organizations that can help work together to combat the obesity issue here in Worcester.

Exhausted. It's been a long LONG day of waiting in line and practicing patience. Rather than droning on about the detailed layout of my afternoon, I'll post photos of a different (better) day, lol.
We had a Primary activity on the 5th of August and I got some photos but never took the time to post any. Enjoy – the kids sure did. 🙂 Here are the photos!

As the UK and especially Bristol & South West England battens down the hatches in preparation for the 'Beast from the East' meeting 'Storm Emma', motorists throughout the region need to take extra care when driving. Conditions will be treacherous and the advice is, quite rightly, do not travel unless you absolutely have to!
However, if you don't have any choice or you find yourself caught out in the adverse weather conditions then knowing how to react to the situation can mean the difference between getting to your destination safely or ending up in serious trouble.
To make sure you are prepared follow our simple guide below…
Know your vehicle
Always make sure you are familiar with your vehicles winter-weather operating characteristics. Read your owner's manual so you know exactly what equipment the car has for dealing with icy conditions.
Is your vehicle front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive?
Front-wheel drive cars generally handle better in slippery conditions than rear-wheel drive because the weight of the engine gives the front wheels more traction.
What breaking system do you have?
Make sure you know what type of braking system you have in your vehicle. Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) give you a greater stopping advantage on slippery roads, but only if used correctly. When attempting to stop on an icy road using ABS you must apply steady constant pressure to the pedal. The ABS will then pump the brakes automatically and stop them from locking and preventing the car from going in to a skid.
If you don't have ABS fitted then you should apply a gentle pumping action to the brake pedal to avoid wheel lock-up and skidding. Never apply a constant pressure whilst braking on ice if your car does not have ABS!
Does your car have Traction Control fitted?
Cars with traction control prevent the wheels spinning during acceleration allowing better grip on slippery roads. If your car has traction control make sure it is switched on during hazardous conditions. If your car doesn't have traction control avoid pulling away too fast or sudden bursts of acceleration, especially in lower gears.
Take care at intersections
In snowy conditions intersections can be particularly dangerous. Slow down gradually before approaching an intersection, think ahead and avoid sudden changes of speed. Be aware of pedestrians, if it's icy they will also have trouble stopping suddenly!
When pulling away at an intersection press the accelerator slowly, starting in second gear to reduce the chance of wheel spin.
Be careful on hills
As you approach a hill with snow or ice on try to pick a path that will give your wheels the most traction. Use the cars in front of you as guide and, if possible, avoid areas where they spin their wheels or start to slide. Try to stick to areas with powdery or unpacked snow as they provide better grip.
When going up a hill build up your speed gradually while still on the level. At the top of the hill descend slowly ensuring you are in a low gear, this allows the engine to drag reducing your speed without having to use your brakes.
Cornering on an icy road
Before entering a corner on an icy road always reduce your speed. Avoid any sudden deceleration or acceleration as this could cause the vehicle to slide or skid. Make sure all your actions, such as steering, accelerating and braking are kept as smooth as possible. If your car does go in to a skid, don't panic, keep both hands on the wheel and try to steer into the skid.
Remember the best way to keep safe when driving conditions are extreme is to stay at home and leave the car on the drive!
If you need any help or advice on keeping your car maintained during these testing weather conditions please give DCS Bristol Ltd a call, we are always happy to help. To arrange an appointment for your vehicle please call us on 0117 972 4343 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Chip Improves Video Quality of Set-top Boxes
Page 1 of 1
Broadcom Corp. Monday introduced a new chip that it says will improve the video quality on set-top boxes and other television appliances.
Targeted at next-generation set-top units, the company's new graphics accelerator has 3-D capabilities and supports studio-quality text, graphics and video on ordinary television displays.
The new chip is Broadcom's first entry in the graphics set-top chip market. Broadcom currently supplies high-speed transmission technology for many set-top boxes. Officials hope to soon incorporate all the major functions of a set-top box on to a single chip.
"This breakthrough technology will cost effectively allow consumers to view Internet content directly on their television with quality similar to their PC," said Henry Nicholas, Broadcom's president and chief executive officer.

Job CBD and in truth the science behind CBD alone radically problems assumptions including Sabet's that euphoria is "damaging" to young children and All round human very well-remaining. Lee observes that…
We create a wholesome extract, not an isolate nor a synthetic products, because our concentration is on offering a pure, highly qualitative CBD oil, and never a cheap product or service with zero Positive aspects for your personal wellbeing.
CBD is The key reason why why large pharma is keen on synthesizing marijuana-like molecules that don't get men and women high. A groundbreaking examine from Israel shown the remarkable therapeutic benefits of complete plant vs artificial "single-molecule" CBD.
CB2 receptors are found generally inside the immune method, and they seem to lessen inflammation and particular forms of ache. Although cannabinoids all have related constructions, they Display screen a wide array of actions at Just about every of different receptors.
The increasing usage of CBD goods nowadays is what may rightly be termed a revolution, as An increasing number of persons comprehend the large effects...
No surprise that Endoca's reasonably priced Uncooked CBD oil solution is usually a member preferred. Endoca is already a 5-star COR brand; their 300mg drops are an ideal intro/servicing option if in search of CBD in its most pure state: natural and organic, raw, in synergy with countless other cannabinoids and hemp plant compounds.
Possibly they are doing have advantageous Qualities, but fiddling with men and women's minds and hearts and with their desperate need to have to find a reliable remedy for distressing problems is not the proper way to promote a product.
The human body creates particular cannabinoids on its own. It has two receptors for cannabinoids, referred to as CB1 receptors and CB2 receptors.
The knowledge you can find on this web site doesn't suggest that AmericanHempOil.Internet states that CBD can address, remedy or diagnose a wellness difficulty. It's also advisable to recognize that the performance of this remedy has not been verified by research authorized by the FDA. The information offered here is not a substitute for acquiring tips from a healthcare practitioner.
Certainly, reduced rates are more attractive, however, if I ended up you, I'd personally Believe twice before buying A budget CBD oil above the superior quality just one.
Lee pointed out that, "Gupta never ever figured out about cannabis in clinical university…As a substitute, Dr. Gupta took his cues from federal businesses, which keep that marijuana is actually a harmful drug with no medical value." The startling surprise of the saga of CBD navigate here is the revelation of systematic bias in contemporary mainstream healthcare science. David Nutt explained drug prohibition as "by far the most Excessive sort of scientific censorship Because the Catholic Church banned the telescope inside the 17th century simply because Galileo used it to substantiate Copernicus' theory the earth circled the sun, not the opposite way all around.
"it's not obvious why gentle euphoric thoughts are intrinsically negative to get a Unwell person or even a healthful human being, for that matter.
Equally as critical, Be sure to purchase CBD from trusted and perfectly-founded supply. Feel free to perform your own personal investigate in regards to the major manufacturers of CBD on the market available on the market, however you'll learn that American Hemp Oil provides the best quality and safest products and solutions.
This really is evident by The point that most of the people aren't often sad, always satisfied, or some complicated combination of the two. When you're possessing difficulties visualizing the goal of neurons, think of them like battery terminals.
cbd oil Can Be Fun For Anyone

Why is this next election critical for "ALL" Americans?Posted: 04/15/2012 Filed under: Economics, Education, Media, Military, Political, Students | Tags: 2008, American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees, Americans, Barack Obama, Black-Liberation Theology, Chicago, Democrats, Elections, Fast & Furious, God, Government, Huffington Post, International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Justice Department, Mitt Romney, President, Republican, Republicans, United States, Wall Street, Washington DC Leave a comment
I am convinced the coming Presidential election will touch every American as well as future generations, in some way.
Question: "Is there 'anyone' in America that is better off today, than 4-years ago?"
If you can answer that you are better off, then perhaps you have some justification to vote your selfish way disregarding the pain and suffering that is clear to the majorities of Americans, from coast to coast.
However, if you are a person with one ounce of empathy for your fellow Americans, please do your research and don't vote for selfish reasons but rather to help "ALL" Americans move toward resolutions that will return sanity, decency, employment, homes, autos, education, opportunity, hope, and Godliness back into America to help "ALL" citizens.
For many Americans that may remain confused about this coming election, perhaps something a big simpler would motivate you to vote not from emotions but from fact…
Please take a break to consider why so much is at stake in the upcoming presidential election. If your neighbor, family member, or loved one remains asleep, please wake them and get them to read the following information and do some fact-finding missions.
Please ask yourself why anyone in their right mind would vote for a Presidential Candidate that is working hard to… keep the unemployed, unemployed… to keep gas prices higher, higher… to keep our educational system producing Illiterates, illiterates… to make green energy failures, failures… to keep our Troops in harm's way, in harm's way… to keep the poor, poor… to pressure businesses heavily regulated, regulated… to keep medical care being rationed, rationed… to support anti-American groups, be anti-American… and to make the US Constitution, unconstitutional?
Less than a few years ago, no one would have been able to predict America would ever have a Presidential candidate like this! How did America get this way? Who is at fault or is it a good thing?

Charleston for Thanksgiving
We were in Charleston for Thanksgiving, and had the pleasure of looking in on a major photography show at the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston, SC, called Masters in Photography, which will be up through January 8th, 2012.
The Gibbes' account of this show says that it "features twentieth-century, masters of photography selected from the Gibbes permanent collection and local private collections including works by Alfred Stieglitz, Margaret Bourke-White, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Berenice Abbott, and many more."
There are some of these big names' greatest hit images in the show, but what is even more engaging are the number of images in the show made by major photographers who did work in Charleston and the surrounding area. Works on exhibition include an image by Robert Rauschenberg (who knew he was a photographer as well as painter?) as well as images by Walker Evans and other WPA photographers who worked in the Charleston area as well as lsewhere in the South.
Also, there is a show up at the Gibbes called Breaking Down Barriers: 300 Years of Women in Art, which includes work by a number of women photographers like Margaret Bourke-White, and color photographs by Sally Mann (again, who knew?).
We were also able to stop into the wonderful gallery run by Rebekah Jacob, at 169-B King Street, in downtown Charleston. Rebekah often (usually) has the work of Southern photographers on display, but right now she has up an elegant show of meditative landscapes by Seattle-based photographer Michael Kenna (see example above).
Rebekkah's gallery is an oasis of calm amid the hustle of busy downtown Charleston. It is one of the key places for getting to know the current renaissance of photography in the American South.
When you are in Charleston, a visit to the Rebekah Jacob Gallery is definitely in order.

Houston New Arts Movement presents Lost Voices: Passion & Perseverance
This event will be a special encore performance of the first concert in the Reflections season, "Lost Voices: Passion and Perseverance."
In a recreation of its debut performance in Houston, guests will hear music from composers who labored under, and were affected by, the reign of Stalin in Russia. Under Russia's Zhdanov doctrine, art and culture were policed heavily, causing some composers to flee for America, and others to fight to survive in their homeland. Many of these works were lost for a time, and were recovered recently. These composers, despite government oppression, found their unique voices

WASHINGTON — Dosing volunteers with toxic pesticides and pollutants for scientific purposes is justified only under strict conditions and with careful review, a National Academy of Sciences panel said Thursday.
The Environmental Protection Agency should establish a special review board to evaluate any studies that involve intentionally giving people toxic chemicals, the committee said.
"Human studies involving pesticides, air pollutants, or other toxicants — as opposed to therapeutic agents — are particularly controversial, and because of this, EPA should subject these studies to the highest level of scientific and ethical scrutiny," said committee co-chairman James Childress, a professor of ethics and medical education at the University of Virginia.
Erik Olson of the Natural Resources Defense Council said he was very troubled by the report. "We find it gravely disturbing," he said, that toxic chemicals could be tested on humans and that the government would use the results of such tests done by industry in the past.
EPA spokeswoman Cynthia Bergman said the agency was still reviewing the report and had no immediate response.
CropLife America, a pesticide industry trade group, welcomed the report, saying it agrees "with the major finding that human testing is ethical, provided there are safeguards and sound science is used.
"Our industry is ethically and legally bound to provide regulators the information they need to determine that products are safe as they set stringent guidelines for their proper use," the group said in a statement.
The panel convened by the National Research Council, the operating arm of the academy, looked at 19 pesticide studies received by EPA since 1991 involving volunteers.
It said any human testing of chemicals must be approached with the utmost caution and care.
Test children?
Asked about the possibility of testing in children, committee member Ellen Wright Clayton of Vanderbilt University said the panel urged EPA to adopt procedures used by other government agencies that say testing in children must seek to answer a question of enormous importance that can't be done in another way and must be reviewed by both a local and national review board.
"I suppose it is possible to imagine a study that might meet those criteria," she said, but the panel didn't try to come up with an example.
EPA generally assesses human risk by determining the lowest level that is harmful to lab animals and extrapolating from that. But it has sponsored human studies when it considered them necessary to set health-related regulations.
The academy panel said intentional dosing studies in humans should be considered only if all of a set of conditions are met. Those were:
- The work must address important regulatory questions that cannot be answered with animal studies or other studies that do not involve human testing. They must be designed, conducted, and reported in a scientifically rigorous manner to ensure that they answer a specific research question.
- The possible benefits to society from the research must outweigh any anticipated risks to participants.
- Studies to be used only for improving the scientific accuracy of EPA's established reference doses for humans, but which would not provide health benefits otherwise, would be justified only if there were no identifiable risks to participants, or if investigators could show with reasonable certainty that participants would not be harmed.
- All recognized ethical standards and procedures for protecting the interests of study participants must be observed, including equitable selection and recruitment of human subjects, the obtaining of informed consent and independent review of the scientific and ethical merits of the study by an institutional review board.
Origin in pesticides tests
EPA turned to the academy for advice after a debate over human studies broke out when pesticide manufacturers — seeking to show that a set of 1996 standards for pesticides in food were too strict — conducted a series of studies on humans and submitted them as evidence.
Those studies were challenged by some scientists, environmentalists and public interest groups on ethical grounds, arguing that people should not be put at risk to establish regulatory standards.
The academy committee concluded that "improving the accuracy of the science employed in regulatory decisions ... constitutes a societal benefit that can justify the conduct of a human dosing study."

Summer's Potential for Writing…
It's the end of another Australian school year, so I am aware of the level of exhaustion that abounds in schools, and the need to tie up a multitude of loose ends prior to school closing for the summer holidays. Teaching becomes a race to the finish line. The last week of school seems to take the longest time of all the many school weeks.
I am also aware that on summer's horizon teachers will have some free time to relax and regenerate their energy reserves.- A time for relaxation, holidays, family and recreation. For those of you who have intentions of adopting a new approach to aspects of your teaching in 2013, may I suggest that the summer holidays might present a great opportunity to embrace the inner writer and embrace your very own writer's notebook. I know many of you read extensively when you are on vacation. Free of the pressure of the classroom, it is possible to indulge in more personal reading; becoming re-acquainted with favorite authors, or to read that book you received as a gift. It seems logical to add a little writing to your extra time. If you do this, it will mean that when the new school year begins you will have compiled a sampling of text that will assist you to model aspects of writing to a fresh group of students. It will afford you immediate writing credibility with your students. You will have captured summer memories, made lists, gathered artefacts, made drawings, gathered photos etc that will assist you to connect more easily to the writing lives of your students. You will be able to say, 'Like you, I am a writer! Like you I make time for things I consider to be important.' -Well, that's the hope!
I urge you to get started over the break. Don't put it off until the school year begins. It will be too late then. -overwhelmed by a myriad of demands and organizational matters –you get the picture, I'm sure. The world is full of people who espouse good intentions. The challenge is to turn one's self into an action figure.
Just as you want your students to make a good start to the school year, you should expect the same for yourself. I'm not suggesting you to write to a rigid schedule, just quarantine a little time to document some of the rich pickings of your summer. It will be a great investment in designing curriculum – and its painless! The more you write, the more you see possibilities. I am not suggesting that you dedicate yourself to just writing about summer exclusively. As always you should focus on matters that are important to you. Maybe your reading may spark your writing, who knows?
I'm sorry, but there is no better time to send this message. I need to reach you now while you still have your educators cap on. Hopefully, it isn't pulled down over your eyes and your hands aren't over your ears.
This summer, don't just dive into the surf. Dive into some writing. Try to approach writing, in the same manner that many so often approach summer reading. The writes of summer could be the stimulus to launch a great new school year in 2013! I can't offer a free set of steak of knives with that, but I know it comes with certain intrinsic rewards.
As you close the door on your classroom for the final time in 2012, make sure you have your notebook with you...

The playoff picture in the Swedish Basketball League is just about set as five teams battle for four spots in the second season with American players figuring prominently throughout the league. Forward Aaron Anderson and guards Skyler Bowin and Cris Czerapowic have powered three-time defending champion Södertälje to a 20-2 record. Three Americans are among the 40 U.S. players currently active in the top division of Swedish basketball.
Södertälje extended its season-long winning streak to 10 on February 7 with an 86-72 win over fourth-place Sundsvall. Croatian forward Toni Bizaca led all scorers with 26 points for the Kings. Bowin, who is the Kings point guard, had 20 points and eight assists while Czerapowic had 18 points and five rebounds. Anderson also pulled down five boards and sank one bucket. The win gave the Kings a three-game cushion over second-place Norrköping, which fell to 18-5 after LF Basket pounded the Dolphins 93-62 on February 9.
Other U.S. imports
Jaraun Burrows, a Bahamian-born product of Indiana University Ft. Wayne, fired in 28 points for Luleå to lead all scorers while Temple graduate Alex Wesby had 14. Johnell Smith, the elder statesman among U.S. players in Sweden, had 14 points for the Dolphins. Smith went to Sweden after he graduated from the University of New Orleans in 2002. Josh Hairston, a 2014 product of Duke University, had eight points for Norrköping.
Norrköping, LF and Borås are locked in a three-way battle for the final two spots in the playoffs. Luleå and the Dolphins each have 15-9 records while Borås is 13-9 with two games in hand. Borås is coming off a 97-65 shellacking of Malbas Malmö. Borås point guard Omar Krayem, a Cal Baptist product, had a triple-double for the winners, scoring 18 points, pulling down 11 rebounds and dishing 11 assists. Krayem also had seven steals. Former Pacific University star Michael Palm also had 18 points for Borås while Ronald Boggs had 14. Kristoffer Gafor led Malbas with 20 points.

Chaosmen released a new scene today. In case you haven't noticed, I love the energy and enthusiasm that Draven brings to any video. I wanted to pair him with a pro like Mason Lear to see how he stacked-up, and WOW, this is a great video. You can tell both these guys brought their 'A' game, and are totally into each other.
It is kind of a long video because it had so many hot moments I could not leave anything out. From some great Ass to Mouth action, to Draven licking his load out of Mason's ass, there is just so many moments you will want to pop your own nut to!

Aims and Methods. Conducting a survey study of a large number of patients and gastroenterologists aimed at identifying relevant predictors of interest in digital recording and documentation (DRD) of endoscopic procedures. Outpatients presenting to the endoscopy unit at our institution for an endoscopy examination were anonymously surveyed, regarding their views and opinions of a possible recording of the procedure. A parallel survey for gastroenterologists was conducted. Results. 417 patients and 62 gastroenterologists participated in two parallel surveys regarding DRD of endoscopic procedures. 66.4% of the patients expressed interest in digital documentation of their endoscopic procedure, with 90.5% of them requesting a copy. 43.6% of the physicians supported digital recording while 27.4% opposed it, with 48.4% opposing to making a copy of the recording available to the patient. No sociodemographic or background factors predicted patient's interest in DRD. 66% of the physicians reported having recording facilities in their institutions, but only 43.6% of them stated performing recording. Having institutional guidelines for DRD was found to be the only significant predictor for routine recording. Conclusions. Our study exposes patients' positive views of digital recording and documentation of endoscopic procedures. In contrast, physicians appear to be much more reluctant towards DRD and are centrally motivated by legal concerns when opposing DRD, as well as when supporting it.

Normally, I do my vegan and vegetarian recipes on Wednesdays. However, I didn't post last Wednesday and I only discovered this recipe on Thursday (go figure). But better late than never, right?
It's hella simple to make and it tastes so freaking good!
Before I get to the recipe portion, let's talk about some of the benefits of arugula; some of this is brand-new to me!
It's healthy as shit for you. No, really it is. It's chalkful of vitamins and cancer-fighting properties. It's also being used to stave off Alzheimer's and dementia.
Two, you can use it as a tool for weight loss. Notice, how I said you can use it as a tool; not a replacement for an active lifestyle.
Three, it boosts the immune system. Eat enough arugula and your body will be able to handle any cold and flu season coming your way.
And allegedly, arugula can be used as an aphrodisiac. I need to test that theory.
Now, I used this recipe as the base but really, I just did my own thing:
- half a bag of arugula.
- 2 Tablespoons of Rice Vinegar (I also read Apple Cider or Red Wine Vinegar works great here too)
- 1 Tablespoon of Olive oil
- Sea salt
- Toasted sesame seeds.
Yeah, that simple.
Combine the vinegar and oil, adding salt to your flavor preference. Toss it over the salad and add the sesame seeds. So simple, so delicious, so freaking easy!!
The original recipe called for cherry tomatoes and avocado (I didn't have either on hand so I just went without) but I'll definitely add that next time.
What are some of your favorite arugula recipes?

These pages are an attempt to record the work that I have been doing over the last few years. I obtained Heritage Collection status in 2008, but some of the older planting took place about 1970 by an earlier Curator. The Collection is housed in the Sheffield Botanical Gardens, financed by the Friends and maintained by a small group of Friends.
Many plants were planted during the restoration period. Unfortunately many were wrongly named by the suppliers. This and an article by Roy Lancaster in the RHS Journal in December 2013 prompted me to check out the labelling of the Collection. Many groups of 3, were found to be of mixed planting. These errors have now been corrected and new labels fitted. The data base has also been updated and now shows the correct name and the location of each group of plants.
I am propagating some cuttings of a new cultivar, developed in Canada, called S. hookeriana var. humilis 'Sarsid 2'. The name coming from Sarcococca and Sidhu, The name of the nursery which raised the plants. These will take a few years to grow on before planting out in the Garden. So far seven of the original 9 cuttings have rooted and have been potted on. However they are not showing any new growth even after 12 months.
I have obtained a small plant of another new cultivar, S. hookeriana var. hookeriana 'Ghorepani'. This will be added to the Collection when I have bulked it up. This plant was publicized by Roy Lancaster in the RHS journal in December 2013. It was discovered and named by Chris Grey Wilson. I have since obtained two more 'Ghorepani' plants through the internet. These are large enough to plant out in the Garden.
Some of the plants of S. wallichii have been grown from seed supplied by the plant collector and have a plant collector's number.(PCN). Some of the other plants have PCN attached.
A new plant name has appeared, but not a new plant, called Sarcococca conzattii. Any one have details.
Another new name has been generated by Bleddyn Wynn-Jones of Crug-farm. It is called Sarcococca bleddynii. He found plants on an expedition to the mountains of northern Vietnam. It will not be available for general sale for another three years or so. The photograph of the fully grown plant looked very much like S. confusa. The leaves looked longer and narrower than S. confusa, it has black berries.

Study Finds Lack of In-House Skill Is the Number One Obstacle to Successful SEO Strategies
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Nov 25, 2014) - Conductor, the leading web presence management provider, today unveiled the latest in SEO research in its new study, "Inside Enterprise SEO: SEO Survey Benchmarks for Large Companies," conducted in partnership with research firm Ascend2. Today, most online purchase decisions begin with organic search. With organic traffic accounting for 94 percent of click through rates for online browsers (vs. 6 percent for paid media), CMOs need to know how to capitalize on organic traffic through effective SEO strategies. The report provides marketers at large enterprises with valuable insights into common SEO practices and pain points to enable them to align their priorities and develop the most effective SEO strategies possible.
Conductor CEO Seth Besmertnik said, "Organic search is one of the most crucial tools available to enterprises seeking to generate awareness and increase online visibility to reach consumers. With hundreds of thousands of products and pages, enterprise companies need a way to manage, scale and value SEO. This research report helps marketers at large companies to understand what is working for their peers and where they should focus their SEO efforts to maximize ROI."
The study shows that while 72% of enterprises rate SEO as successful in achieving top marketing objectives of lead generation and increased web traffic, the greatest barriers to achieving SEO success are institutional vs. strategic (i.e. a lack of dedicated in-house SEO resources). Additionally, the report reveals that the most effective SEO tactic for marketers is the creation of quality content.
Key findings from the report include:
Conductor's Searchlight platform helps marketers coordinate and scale efforts to attack opportunities across unpaid channels (like organic search, content and social) to make sure their content gets found.

We are all different. My body is different to yours. Our environments are different, our diets are different, our lives are different. So it makes sense that what works for some won't work for everyone.
That's the frustrating thing about infertility. It can be so difficult to pin point the root cause of what's going on and what is going to fix it. That's why I don't have a one size fits all solution. Our bodies are different but so are our needs.
Some women thrive on committing to regular 1-1 support for motivation and accountability, some women much prefer to explore things in their own way. Some women love working with others to dig deep into their emotions and others get more out of focused questions and personal advice.
Whatever your needs, I hope you find something helpful below. Each is a quick summary to help you really get an idea of what you want. More details can be found on each page. Please do email me at email@example.com if you have any questions.

When you want to get pregnant, you will do just about anything to get there. Including revamping your whole diet! But where the hell do you start?

Quito, Ecuador-based designer and illustrator Kiko Rodriguez has very clear opinion of the legacy left by the late Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez: "He left power the way most dictators leave it, by dying," says Rodriguez. It was Chavez's efforts to stamp out political opponents and critical media that offended Rodriguez and led him to create the unflattering caricature of Chavez that was named one of the winners of the first annual Latin American Ilustración competition.
"My caricature refers to the injustice of his rule, showing the fight between a wild, powerful gorilla—Chavez and his state apparatus—and a delicate wounded bird representing mass media," he says. The blue feather in the image, he notes, is an allusion to the iconic Twitter logo. "The caricature has strong and aggressive style. It is a response of the same intensity with which I believe Chavez and his government treated their opponents," Rodriguez says.
The title of the work, "Miko Mandante," is a caustic as the caricature itself. "Miko Mandante is one of the derogatory terms that Chavez was called by his opponents," explains Rodriguez. "Its translation is something like 'monkey leader.' The origin of the phrase is a wordplay combination of 'Mi Comandante' ('my commander') and 'miko,' which means ape."
The caricature, notes Rodriguez, was meant to provoke, and it did so. "It is very offensive to Chavez's followers," he says—particularly in the aftermath of Chavez's death from cancer in March.
Born in Cuba, Rodriguez moved to Ecuador in 2000, where he established himself as a freelance artist and graphic designer doing advertising and editorial work. He also founded Ilustres Ilustradores, an event focusing on illustration with conferences, contests, and exhibitions. He is currently working on a digital project, creating a series of iPad publications featuring his caricature work along with tutorials and "making of" videos. "In my work as a designer I have increasingly included illustration as a graphic resource or graphic complement," he says. "I have also dedicated a very special effort, within the illustration work, to caricatures."
Creating his caricature of Chavez was a personal act, not an editorial commission. "I was driven by an internal sense of duty," he says. "I think every communicator must use his or her skills to try to contribute positively to the world. When there is injustice and oppression, not doing or saying anything makes you accomplice to what is happening."

DATELINE: Mamet Strikes Again
The last decent movie made by Val Kilmer was about a dozen years ago, called Spartan (2004), directed and written by David Mamet.
It's one of those double cross, double agent stories about how sly and violent the real national security people are. They have nothing compared to Kilmer who made this movie looking rather beautiful. Of course, he had his own make-up artist, two personal assistants, and a driver. Even his leather jacket received billing.
As for the movie, it did not portray the world in any kind of favorable light, being the epitome of cynicism. It was made a dozen years before Mr. Trump won his election—but it's a world that his supporters would likely point to as the reality.
Kilmer is so tough as nails and coldly professional as a killer that his loyal aides will die for him. What's more the movie is filmed mostly in Boston to show liberals how they are being used.
A smart cast includes Derek Luke, Bill Macy, and Ed O'Neill, as various levels of national security snarks.
If you can't tell the good guys from the bad, you have a sense that Jason Bourne may be the new rule as far as government conspiracy is concerned. Yes, this film seems to want to be in that mold—giving Kilmer a franchise.
Alas, this one never caught on—and worse, fell through the cracks of espionage-up-the-kazoo. What a shame. Its natural dark element does turn it up a notch over cartoon superheroes.
The film was once titled, "Ranger," because everyone thought Spartan was an epic by Sophocles. They should have stuck with Ranger.

Lazy Book Club: Shiver and Linger by Maggie Stiefvater
One of the first things that you notice about Shiver and Linger is Maggie's writing. It's lush and lyrical. I think if she lived ages ago she would've been a bard or poet. It makes something fantastic, like a story of werewolves, feel like a youthful romance instead of a gothic horror. I think it takes an incredible amount of talent to do that. If I read something supernatural, I'm usually reading it FOR the supernatural aspect, but in Shiver (and Linger), I'm reading FOR Grace and Sam. The fact that Sam is a werewolf is secondary.
I couldn't agree more. Her writing scenes memorable because they are so lush and lyrical, as you say. For example, on Shiver, Ani said, "I liked that they had "grown up" together and the inexplicable bond they had, even though one was in wolf form for the majority of their time together." I think Maggie's writing style made this work. Grace's fascination with the wolves, Sam (as a wolf) always watching, and the scene where Grace and Sam first make contact in the woods behind Grace's house. They were made all the stronger because of the way Maggie wrote these scenes. I said before that I could almost feel Grace's hands buried in Sam's fur (when he first allows her to touch him). That remains one of my favorite moments of the series.
Right. The way she interwove scenes and memories together to illustrate shared experiences was wonderful.
Which leads us to one of Maggie's true talents - Character Voices. In Shiver, Sam's voice and Grace's voice are distinct but fit together perfectly. You feel them falling in love, but with the history behind it for them both. And then we get to Linger and I'm just blown away. We have Grace's POV, Sam's POV, and then we get Isabel and Cole's point's of view. What I love is that they're so very different from one another, but it never once feels unnatural. It doesn't feel like some woman in Virginia is trying to sound like a brooding rock star. It sounds like a wounded boy thrust into a rock lifestyle. I'm amazed. And Cole... Oh, Cole.
One of our readers summed it up: "In Linger, we meet Cole, who is seriously an amazing character from start to finish. His relationships with Isabel and Sam are really well drawn and amazing. We see more of Isabel, who is a fantastic character in her own right."
Which is true. You want to hate Cole because Sam doesn't trust him. But then you get to understand him and you realize you can't hate him. And Isabel is so hard and focused, but we see why and so we understand her a little, too.
I feel the same way. At first I was a little hesitant about hearing the other voices, because I wasn't ready for it and I wanted to get back to Sam and Grace. I remember thinking, "Who is this Cole? I don't want to know him!" (Okay, yes, I was pouting a bit.) But, I got over it pretty quickly once I started to get into the other characters. And it was easy to "get into" the characters because, as you say, Maggie is so brilliant with switching voice.
Our reader Tiffany agreed with you: "I didn't think that I would like the new character insights, but I did. Cole was a fun addition. :) I was torn between liking him and hating him, but in the end....he was leaning towards the good guy ;) so what's not to like? :) I actually enjoyed Isabel's perspective too. She added some nice sass to the book."
I think one of the neatest things about these alternating POVs was the ability to see how a character viewed themselves and then contrast it to how others saw them. Isabel and Cole's perceptions of Grace and Sam's relationship struck me in particular. Like this quote:
"Sam came over behind Grace's chair and slid a hand onto her neck. It was a simple gesture that didn't say possession so much as connection. Isabel's eyes were on that hand, the same way I guess mine were." - Cole, Linger, p. 332
I feel like the alternate POVs actually added quite a bit to our insight on Grace and Sam. The book would've been less without them.
Oh that's a good point! It does make their relationship seems so much stronger in light of how it is seen from the outside. Except as it is seen by Grace's parents in Linger. I'm surprised that none of our readers brought up their sudden interest in actually being parents.
I don't know what to say about Grace's parents. That I hate them? That they're terrible people who probably never should've had a kid, but that I'm glad they did since I like Grace? Sadly, I don't think they're that far off the mark for a lot of parents of teens today. I'm sure there are lots of kids who can identify with feeling abandoned emotionally because their parents are too busy to participate in their lives.
I was surprised at how ANGRY I was at them. Honestly, it was like being a teen all over again. I was also proud (and maybe did a few fist-pumps) when Grace finally stood up to them. It never did sink it with them, which was unfortunate, but it made me somewhat happier that Grace finally expressed how she's been feeling all these years. In Shiver you see her try to pretend their neglect doesn't affect her, but in Linger we see that it does (especially in comparison with their sudden "interest" in her life) and she finally finds her voice to tell them so.
I think the biggest bombshell in Linger wasn't much of a bombshell at all. We all saw it coming, and that's not really a bad thing, but the way it took place made it feel clinical for me.
One of our readers agreed: "But the flip of Grace becoming a wolf was a little predictable. We see it coming from the first book, and I kept hoping she'd surprise me and not do it. I also felt a lot of the plot elements were convenient, like Cole being a super genius, or just unbelievable, like Grace not telling anyone she was sick or Sam not noticing the fever earlier when he was cuddling up with her nightly.
The focus on the science of the changes strips away some of the magic we felt, like when Sam took Grace to the golden clearing, or the idea that they could communicate through thoughts, even when Grace was human."
Now, I don't mind Grace's transformation. Like I said, you could feel it coming from the start. But the science of it makes it seem less special, somehow. I'm torn because of course I want Grace and Sam to live happily ever after. But making werewolf-ism a disease is kind of like scientifically explaining why Santa isn't real halfway through Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. It just feels out of place with the magic that permeated Mercy Falls in Shiver. I was left feeling sad and missing that mystical element.
In terms of Grace becoming a wolf, I felt sad, but only because of Sam being left behind. I was actually happy for Grace in a way.
But I differ with you and our reader on the point of magic vs. science. I kind of like how science/logic stand in contrast with the magical, as well as with the lyrical quality of Maggie's writing in these books. Linger, especially, seemed just so rational at points. Whereas the whole feel of the book is decidedly not rational.
I understand that, and I didn't dislike it as much as the reader did, but I still can't help but feel that there are some things that I don't want a rational explanation for.
Ah - interesting. But at the same time, you WANT the cure, right? You WANT Sam and Grace to be together - human together. So, it's a conflict.
But if becoming a werewolf is magic then there'd be a magical way out of it. Can't I have both?
Not in these books. *grins* Or at least not yet. Maybe Maggie has magic in store for Forever?
What about you all? We'd love to hear your thoughts on Shiver, Linger, and what you think might happen in Forever. Do you think magic or science will prevail? Will Grace and Sam end up together somehow? (Please say yes.)

I definitely liked Linger more than Shiver - maybe it was the introduction of the other voices or that there was more at stake. Whatever it was, I liked it a lot. And I hated Grace's parents! I wanted to strangle them so much and even though Grace stood up to them, she really didn't get through to them. Arghhhhhhh!ReplyDelete
Once thing that did kind of bother me (and I think I'm only mentioning this because your post about sex in YA, which I thought was interesting): Grace always insists that her and Sam's relationship (sleeping in the same bed together) isn't 'like that'. As in, they don't have sex. BUT THEY DID. So I don't understand? Does it make your love more pure if you insist that you don't want to have sex with each other? It just bothers me how in YA, the characters have sex once, and that's it. They never do it again. Speaking as a teenager, that is really not what happens in RL. So....
Sam, I understand what you mean about the sex part. I just kinda assumed that even though Grace was protesting it was more that she was saying it was MORE than just sex. So the emphasis was on the emotional closeness of living together instead of on the sexytimes. I figured the sex was still happening.ReplyDelete
And I didn't think they were having sex. I was thinking that with her feeling so awful, and the parents thing, that there were no sexytimes going on. We should ask Maggie. ;)ReplyDelete
I'm totally NOT doing a "told ya so" dance in Stacie's direction. Nope. Not me. ;)ReplyDelete
Thanks, Maggie!!
Well, I'm HAPPY to be wrong this time!ReplyDelete
And yes, thank you Maggie for clearing that up!
I am laughing really, really hard...thank you, Maggie for the clarification!!!ReplyDelete

I finished Linger last night. I cannot even fully comment yet So much to say but speechless. First -- the varying POV's are evidence of Maggie's brilliance at writing. She gives each of them a distinctive voice and always worked. The story was fluid even as the observer changed. I also have to say that the way Rachel refers to Sam as "The Boy" cracks me up. I love that chick!ReplyDelete
I think from the start of the book I knew in my gut that Grace was going to become a wolf but I kept hoping... mostly because of Sam. He keeps trying to hold onto these people he loves as one would grab water in their fist. It put a lump in my throat... I was surprised (in a good way) that Sam rejected the idea of returning to a life of a wolf and instead chose to remain human. That was not an easy decision for him, I'm sure.
Cole and Isabel. Impossible not to love them because haven't we all been broken at one point? To the point that you wear armor of protection, whether that be attitude keeping people at arm's length, or drugs/alcohol to keep your mind from working against your heart and soul.
I do have a question for Maggie (which further proves I could not stop thinking of this story after I finished last night).
If Sam and Grace were BOTH wolves/human, could she get pregnant? Also since gestation is 9 months for human but they'd only be wolves for maybe 6 months or so would she be able to carry the baby/cub to term? And if she did would it be a freakish child like Renesmee in Breaking Dawn or would it be a bouncing baby or snuggly wolf?
The fact that I thought of that... to the point of analyzing and considering this possibility which is entirely outside of the realm of reality proves that I need another book to read.
So... when does Forever come out?

See #2 :)
Oh how I love Sam and Grace. *sigh* I have to admit I hesitated to read Linger because I loved the ending of Shiver and I didn't want the second book in the trilogy to dispel it for me. I'm not quite as settled at the end of it, but I'm just so in love with Maggie's writing and everything about this story that I don't mind. I can't wait for Forever! (that just sounds odd)ReplyDelete
Shiver and Linger…first of all I do love the titles. Just a simple girl, so I like keeping it simple. Don't complicate things for me please! :O)ReplyDelete
I'll admit when I first started reading, I was a bit confused. (remember simple?) Anyway, once I got the *rhythm* of the books, I found reading them became very fluid. This in turn made reading them a pleasure.
While reading, I realized something about myself. Fact being, I must always be secretly in love with the bad boys, but will always choose the good guy in the end. You know, kind of like, in real life? Anyway, for sure I loved each and every character. Love, love, love them for all the obvious reasons.
When a book causes you to reminisce about something in particular, it makes that book extra special. Example~ Grace is lying in Sam's bed, looking up at all the little paper birds, I was remembering my brothers room. He had all of his model airplanes hung by strings from his ceiling. (Side note: he grew up to build and fly his own airplane)
I didn't take notes or tab pages, while reading the books, like I did with the last book I read. About 2/3 the way thru Linger, I started to do just that. Another realization, I was marking spots that made my eyes fill up with tears! Usually they are special little moments that touch you deep down. Example pg.249~Sam: I remembered her losing her footing outside the car…I swallowed, my throat clinging to itself, and asked instead, "Can we get a dog?" For me it's those little moments…another example (surely there are 100 or more) but on page 321, when they are burying Victor, and Grace asks Cole if he would like to say something. Today, I kept re-reading this, and couldn't figure out why I had marked this page. Then there it was…"We were making it harder for him. We were making him fight both grief and tears." WOW! If I had to describe myself in one sentence, it would be just that. This author described how I live my life each day, "Fighting both grief and tears." No wonder I marked that page!
OK, at first I didn't want to write a *so called* review about Linger because…here it is…I was not happy with the ending. (Always afraid of hurting someone's feelings) Sorry! You see, I'm a hopeless romantic. I DID feel like it was a longing of Grace's to be a wolf, but it's not how I was wishing it would end. O right, it's not *my* book, or story to tell. So the good thing for me, knowing that there will be yet another book to this sequel! I'll keep the faith and hope alive! And on this note, I will also add, that if Grace does not get her RED COFFEE POT, this reader will be very disappointed!
Forgot something…once Grace became ill, one half my brain thought she was pregnant, and the other half kept disagreeing! Sheeesh…it's a mess in there.
