The New York Times has just unveiled a brand new program called Digital Day Passes. The day pass will will grant access to the publication's website and apps for the day to anyone that buys the print edition of the newspaper. There will be a special keyword that the customer can text to a specific phone number and a link will be generated.
The company describes the promotional codes it's offering as a trial, explaining that it hopes to "expose retail customers to the benefit of digital access." The trial has no definite end date as the company plans to gauge customers' response to determine its next steps.
"The goal is to drive incremental loyalty among our newsstand customers and to also give them a similar benefit to that of our home delivery customers, who receive All Digital Access complimentary with their subscription," a spokesperson for the paper explains. "We also want to give newsstand customers a taste of all of the additional content available on NYTimes.com and our mobile apps, that they can't get with print," they add.
It is important to note that you need to create an online New York Times account, which is free. This is utterly necessary in order to login to their website or use their apps for Android or iOS.
Michael Kozlowski is the Editor in Chief of Good e-Reader. He has been writing about audiobooks and e-readers for the past ten years. His articles have been picked up by major and local news sources and websites such as the CBC, CNET, Engadget, Huffington Post and the New York Times.

An M625 Mountain with a second cylinder machined for .45 Win Mag would be interesting, as that could also chamber the .45 ACP. The .45 Win Mag is essentially a lengthened .45 ACP with more metal internally in the region of the head, externally sharing the same geometry other than length. In semi auto these headspace on case mouth, but in revolver the .45 ACP is headspaced using a clip rather than the case mouth. I don't know if a commercial production revolver was ever made that chambered .45 Win Mag (maybe Taurus? not S&W as far as I know).

Can you tell me what these plants are called, thanks
1. Crinodendron hookerianum
3 Hibiscus syriacus..probably a named cultivar.

GD - No. 1 - can't think of the proper name - how frustrating but I've seen it in the SW UK No. 3 looks very much like a Hibiscus from the leaves and flowers.0

Top one is Crinodendrum hookerianum
bottom one Hibiscus syriacus. Bluebird.You don't stop doing new things because you get old, you get old because you stop doing new things.0
Sorry but Hibiscus syriacus Bluebird is a simple flower...rather purple.
While Guernsey Donkeys2 flowers are semi double..pink.

Photo 2 looks like a double Abutilon. Hybridum Pink Swirls perhaps.0
Depends how particular you want to be of course - without resorting to google, Hibiscus answers the OP's query sufficiently I feel.
Easy enough to take it further if necessary. They require the same regime if you want to know whether or not it would suit your particular space.0
Thank you one and all for helping to identify these plants for me. The first was planted by our daughters partner in our front garden. He doesn't keep labels, and I had never knowingly seen this unusual plant before. The remaining two flowering shrubs were seen in a garden further up the road, they do look lovely when in flower although I don't think I will be introducing them into our garden, I was just interested to know what they were.0

This unit examines our understanding of human psychological development, focusing on selected issues and empirical traditions within the discipline of Developmental Psychology. Students are expected to gain an understanding of the theoretical influences that have come to dominate developmental research, and students will also be introduced to a range of theoretical and research approaches in contemporary Developmental Science. These include: sense of identity and self-worth, conceptual development, children's thinking, social cognition, moral reasoning and behaviour, and the role of genetic and environmental influences on development. The course will also consider applications of developmental research and theory in developmental psychopathology and in educational contexts, as well as exploring children's experience of art, literature and drama. Students are expected to gain knowledge of, and develop a critical approach to, the analysis of current research and theoretical issues in these areas. In the advanced unit of study students will collect, score, and analyse the data from children participating in research projects in the School's Developmental Laboratories.

Get lifted lashes at CORA Beauty + Spa
Editors' note: This story originally ran Nov. 20, 2015 and only applicable links have been updated.
I'm one of those people who love to be a guinea pig and try something new. Beauty, food, styles, whatever – you can generally count me in.
I had a mishap (by mishap I mean a gas grill literally blew up in my face) that cost me a bit of length in eyelashes a few weeks back. A grill, a warm fall evening and a Packers win were all involved and I still have flashes of it in my head. But I have to move on – I know this – and I've been slowly but surely trying to grow them back by religiously applying castor oil on my brows and lashes. Ladies, take note: the castor oil does work.
But, when I got the opportunity to try a Lash Lift from CORA Beauty + Spa, I literally jumped at the chance. When I learned I could get my lashes lifted – and tinted – without getting extensions put on I was quite intrigued.
The Lash Lift is a new take on the old-fashioned lash perm and CORA – which is the name of the business and the owner, Cora Floyd – is one of the first spas in the state to offer them. The traditional lash perm method required your natural lashes to be wrapped around a sponge rod which can actually make lashes look short with inconsistent curls. Lash Lift is different.
The lift starts with a protective pad to cover the under-eye area and hold down the bottom lashes. Next, curved silicone pads are glued to the eyelid and the top lashes are lifted and glued to the bump on the pad. This process takes a few minutes to ensure each lash stays put. They felt a little tight but not uncomfortable. Cora then also applied a soothing mask to moisturize my face during the process.
Mask being applied.
Once the lashes are lifted and glued to the pad, Cora applied the perm solution to the roots of the lashes. I joked it smelled of the good ole days – the perm. My eyes stung a little bit but I felt that was to be expected. Luckily it's only 10…Read more...

I've never blogged a book review, but this book is an exception. It's not just for how well it's researched and written; Jung Chang and Jon Halliday have done an excellent job. This book's an exception for it's content.
I grew up when Mao was in power. In school we learned he lead "Red China" which somehow was even more scary than our obvious cold war foe, the USSR. Maybe it was because less was known about Red China.
I remember wondering many times what was really going on there, as the limited news out of Red China never made much sense. From their success with AGRIculture, to the destruction of ALL culture I suspected much was not being reported. In this case "much" is an understatement.
This book is amazing. It will stand as one of the greatest contrasts between perception and reality ever written. At the time, and in spite of communism, Mao was presented to me as hero of his people. Nothing could have been further from the truth. This book documents the greatest social mismanagement of all human history. What's even more amazing, it was largely accomplished by one man for one purpose - Mao and to keep his position of power. Or was Mao something more? A true villian?
Neal Stephenson referred to Mao as, "Buddha's evil twin", which makes a lot of sense if you think about his looks, nature and the impact on history.
Mao makes the French revolution look civil and fair. Mao makes Hitler look reasonable. Mao even out-murdered his mentor, Stalin, by a wide margin. And he does it all by maintaining his political hierarchy largely through intimidation - this was no conspiracy of fifty, or even five. FEW around him actually agreed with his actions for any significant period of time. But he managed control in spite of more rational minds at hand. This was the genius of Mao and probably the ONLY thing he did well.
I started this post to note some of the things done by Mao or at his direction. Some of these might be considered "spoilers" if you plan to read the book, which you should. If so, stop now. If not, you've been warned...
You've probably heard, Mao was responsible for over 70 million deaths. The book will detail why, when and where this was done, as well as how this was calculated - fascinating. Here are a few examples...
Mao deliberately sent thousands of his OWN soldiers into probable death simply so HE could be the first to rendezvous at the Russian border. He did this for political reasons. And those troops who DID return were made to dig their own mass grave before being executed and buried in place. This was all done to take a political competitor out of play.
Mao also personally defined methods of torture and enjoyed watching them being performed on large a scale. Many were old favorites from history such as death by a thousand cuts, red-hot rods forced into rectums and various other forms of death using water and weights.
He also helped develop new ones, like stuffing gun power into the sinuses of the subject which then were of course, lighted. Or forcing people to eat things not normally digested until they died slowly. In some cases people were kept alive for years so they could learn of their family's fate before meeting their own.
And there was no safety in being close to Mao - just the opposite. Those closest often went first. His own son fell in love with a girl Mao originally brought to court for himself - when she was 12 years old. At first Mao refused to let them marry, but relented and let his jealousy take another course.
A few months later his son was sent to the active Korean battle front where he was quickly killed. Mao then continued the relationship with this daughter-in-law not telling her until years later her husband had died not long after their honeymoon. You'll have to read the book to learn what he did to his other children and wives. I'll warn you, it's not nice.
But let's put aside death for a moment. After all, Mao learned from Stalin that if you keep the numbers up, death is just a statistic. Shit happens when you run a government.
Actually, the bigger crime was probably done to those who LIVED. There were HUNDREDS of MILLIONS living on the EDGE of starvation for YEARS on end so that Mao could send their grain to Russia in exchange for weapons and weapon technology. Literally 38 MILLION people died so Mao could buy the technology to build an atomic bomb which was never used in anger. How's THAT for a Zen weapon? It was WAY more effective at killing people than the two wimpy bombs we dropped on Japan. Oops, I'm back on death.
Other amazing elements of Mao's policy is how he separated couples and families for long periods on a massive scale while not allowing communication with loved ones. It's hard to understand WHY he would do this, but Chang and Halliday show the reasons. And it makes a weird kind of sense. Well sort of, some of the time. The rest of the time Mao just comes off as a wacko with WAY too much power. Taking away each family's wok? Nothing to cook anyway.
Another one of my favorite books is "Hawaii". In one section James Michener describes the hardship of common life in 19th century china. What he described is paradise compared to what Mao created for his "People" in this modern age.
These people were made to sleep outside with no shelter for long periods. In some cases women literally went naked for months at a time because of lack of clothing. Many died of exposure, but the ones who lived, didn't live well. Modern America has NO CLUE about hardship. This book will give you a taste of what humans can endure. It will also allow you to appreciate how easy it can be to turn your back on life, when even endurance becomes a luxury.
This book tells so many secrets on so many levels it's really hard to believe. But what's written seems to be pretty well documented and the detail is amazing.
I've finally discovered what was happening in Red China as I grew up. I never could have imagined it. This book may be the key to never having this happen again. We can hope. Or can we? I wonder what's REALLY going on in North Korea right now.
But that's another post.
If you're interested in China, this is a must read.
... seeking simple answers to complex problems, and in the process, disrupting the status quo in technology, art and neuroscience.

Citibank is the fourth largest bank in the United States (source: World Atlas). As you would expect, it has a wide range of credit card options. These are the best Citibank credit cards right now. There is a Citi card designed for nearly every type of customer — from students who are first-time credit card users to heavy spenders who carry a high balance that needs to be paid off.
But which Citi credit card is the best? Well, the answer to that question depends on who's asking it. With multiple cards intended to meet different consumer needs, you have to make sure you're choosing the one that best meets your needs. Don't be so quick to sign up for just any Citi card without knowing exactly what you're signing up for.
While it's great to have options, sometimes having too many options can lead to the wrong decision. So we've narrowed down the top cards based on category.
Here are the best Citi credit cards right now.
1) Best Citibank cashback card
Citi Double Cash Card
If you have great credit and want to earn unlimited rewards, the Citi Double Cash Card could be the one for you. There's no annual fee, and it comes with an 18-month interest-free introductory rate on balance transfers.
Beyond that, this is one of the most simple cashback cards on the market. You'll earn 1% cashback on every purchase and an additional 1% when you make payment.
The extra 1% will be rewarded whether you make an immediate payment or carry a balance. But be careful when carrying a balance, because it could cause more harm in the long run.
This card charges fees on foreign transactions, balance transfers, late payments, and returned payments.
Here's everything you need to know about the Citi Double Cash Card
2) Best Citibank travel card
Citi Prestige Card
If you travel a lot and have excellent credit, the Citi Prestige Card offers some great perks. You'll earn three points for every $1 spent on travel, two points for every $1 spent on dining and entertainment, and one point for every $1 spent on all other purchases.
You have the option to transfer your points to another travel loyalty program or redeem them for electronics, statement credits, gift cards, or travel. Your points are worth 33% more when used to pay for air travel through Citi's ThankYou travel center.
The bonus increases to 60% when you use your points to purchase American Airlines and US Airways flights. On top of that, you'll receive $250 in annual airfare credit and a complimentary fourth night for any hotel stay.
There are no foreign transaction fees when using this card abroad. It also comes with a generous signup bonus for new members. If you spend $2,000 on new purchases within the first three months, you'll receive 30,000 bonus points — that's a $300 to $480 value in travel rewards.
The downside is that this card comes with a pretty steep annual fee. But with the solid point system, generous signup bonus, annual airfare credit, and free hotel nights, the card often ends up paying for itself.
However, if you don't think you'll be able to spend $2,000 in the first three months to activate the signup bonus, you may want to consider other travel cards.
Here's a detailed review of the Citi Prestige Card
3) Best Citibank balance transfer card
City Simplicity Card
This card is designed to help people save money on payments with a 0% APR intro rate that can't be beat. If you're about to make a big purchase or currently carry a balance that you'd like to pay off interest-free, the City Simplicity Card will give you 21 months to do so.
That's nearly two years of paying zero interest on all purchases and balance transfers. There is also no fee or penalty APR for late payments, making the City Simplicity Card a great choice for people drowning in credit card debt (or soon to find themselves in credit card debt).
The type of debt you can transfer to this card isn't limited to just credit card debt. For example, you can transfer your student and auto loan debt as well.
The card doesn't have an annual fee, but it does charge a foreign transaction, returned payment, and balance transfer fee.
The Citi Diamond Preferred is a very similar card. However, there is a penalty APR for late payments, which puts it one step below the City Simplicity Card.
Longtime customer Quannie G says, "I love the fact that the card has 0% APR and no late payment fees."
Discover more details about the City Simplicity Card here
4) Best Citibank rewards card
Citi ThankYou Preferred Card
This card provides a solid rewards program and doesn't require a perfect credit score to get it. It offers double points on dining and entertainment purchases, making it a great option for people who enjoy going out. You'll earn one point per dollar spent on every other purchase. Cardholders will get special access to exclusive events as well.
There is a 15,000-point signup bonus ($150 value), which is activated by spending at least $1,000 during the first three months. You can also get a 12-month 0% APR intro rate on balance transfers. However, the transfer has to be completed within the first four months of owning the card to get it.
There is no annual fee, but you'll want to think twice before using this card abroad as foreign transaction fees do apply. Also, if you aren't great at making on-time payments, make sure you're aware of the card's penalty rates before you apply.
Learn more about the Citi ThankYou Preferred Card
5) Best Citibank store credit card
Costco Anywhere Visa Credit Card
If you aim to optimize your gas purchase, and also enjoy traveling and dining out, then the Costco Anywhere Visa Credit Card is a good Citi card for you. It offers 4% cash bask on eligible gas, 3% cashback on restaurant and travel purchases, 2% cashback on all other Costco purchases, and 1% cash back on every other purchase. This store credit card has no annual fee, and you'll get 0% APR for the first seven months.
Read more about the Costco Anywhere Visa Credit Card
6) Best Citibank student credit card
Citi ThankYou Preferred Card for College Students
If you're a college student who regularly spends money on dining and entertainment, this is the card for you. You'll receive two points for every $1 spent on dining and entertainment and one point for every $1 spent on all other purchases. Points never expire, and there is no cap on how many you can earn.
There is a $2,500 signup bonus if you spend $500 within the first three months of owning the account. The card also comes with a 7-month 0% APR introductory rate on new purchases only, not on balance transfers.
You'll want to be sure to make on-time payments, as you'll be hit with an APR penalty rate when you make a late payment. The penalty rate is even more expensive for those who carry a balance because it will stay on the account until it is closed.
The card does not charge an annual fee or over-the-limit fee. But you will be charged a fee for late payments, returned payments, balance transfers, and foreign transactions (so be careful when using this card while studying abroad).
There are additional perks, including shopping and travel benefits, as well.
Here are more details on the Citi ThankYou Preferred Card for College Students
How many credit cards can you have at Citi bank?
Unlike most card issuers, Citibank does not limit the number of cards you can have. However, it places a credit limit across all your Citi cards according to your creditworthiness. You won't be able to get a new card once you hit your credit limit.
Citibank may not restrict the number of cards you can own, but they do limit the number of times you get new cards. Customers are allowed to get just two cards every two months. If it's a business card, you can only get a new one after 95 days.
Get started
The probability of your application being successful will largely depend on your credit score. If your credit score is good, then you can quickly get approved for a Citibank card or any credit card for that matter. If your credit score is terrible, however, you may want to improve your score before applying.
More importantly, make sure to compare these cards to other top credit cards before you apply. That's the only way to find the best credit card for your needs.
Review credit card terms and compare rates side-by-side

DURING one three-week period recently Iwan Baan touched down in Amsterdam, Mexico City, Miami, New York, Milan, Rome, Tokyo, Medellín and Basel, where he photographed buildings designed by some of the world's top architects, including Herzog & de Meuron, Rem Koolhaas and Toyo Ito. Along with Steven Holl, Thom Mayne and the Japanese firm Sanaa, they have helped turn Mr. Baan, 34, into almost certainly the most peripatetic architectural photographer in the world as well as one of the most widely published.
Just five years after he took up architectural photography, Mr. Baan is "remaking the genre," said Charles Renfro, a partner in Diller Scofidio & Renfro, for whom he has photographed projects like the High Line and the renovated Lincoln Center. For decades magazine editors, developers and architects themselves favored a static style of photography that framed buildings as pristine objects. Mr. Baan's work, while still showing architecture in flattering lights and from carefully chosen angles, does away with the old feeling of chilly perfection. In its place he offers untidiness, of the kind that comes from real people moving though buildings and real cities massing around them.
Mr. Baan sees buildings as backdrops for his photographs of people, he said during a recent visit to New York. Looking at a picture of the new Cooper Union building in the East Village, designed by Mr. Mayne, Mr. Baan said, "It's about the woman shuffling down the street." His work owes as much to Diane Arbus and Henri Cartier-Bresson as to Julius Shulman or Ezra Stoller, the pre-eminent architectural photographers of the late 20th century.
And where Shulman may be best known for exalting glass houses that hovered above Los Angeles, Mr. Baan often does the opposite, chartering helicopters to photograph buildings as small objects amid relentless urban sprawl. If Shulman and Stoller's glorifying of pure form was an ideal match for the purist Modern architecture of their era, Mr. Baan's conjuring of real life may be ideally suited to a time when architects like Mr. Koolhaas are creating buildings meant to absorb and reflect the messiness of 21st-century cities.
Mr. Baan, who grew up outside Amsterdam, got his first camera, an Agfa Clack, at 12 but quickly traded it in for a more sophisticated model. In the mid-1990s he studied photography at the Royal Academy of Art, in The Hague, but he didn't plan to shoot architecture because when he tried it, he was asked for "incredibly boring" pictures, he said, "with blue sky and no people." And he never finished school, in part, he said, because some of his professors didn't consider his digital work "real photography." At the end of the decade he lived in New York, where he took photos for a series of children's books.
Like many technophiles of his generation, he was fascinated by the Internet. In 2004 he saw an exhibition of images produced by Mr. Koolhaas's research studio, AMO, on the history of Europe, and looking for work he wrote a proposal for turning it into an interactive Web site. Months after he submitted it, he got a call asking if he could accompany Mr. Koolhaas to Brussels to present the idea to an official of the European Union.
That trip led to a number of collaborations with Mr. Koolhaas, including an assignment to document construction of the CCTV tower in Beijing, which involved flying to Beijing every eight weeks. He contacted the offices of Herzog & de Meuron (whose Bird's Nest stadium was being built for the 2008 Olympics) and Steven Holl (whose Linked Hybrid, a series of residential towers connected by sky bridges, was breaking ground), asking if he could photograph their buildings there. Rather than waiting to be chosen by clients, "he chose our architecture," Mr. Holl recalled.
Mr. Baan said he was drawn to the Chinese projects largely because the migrant construction workers who lived on site as many as 10,000 in the case of CCTV created entire communities for him to photograph, with the new buildings as backdrops. And he was able to capture pretty much what he saw. Nobody bothered to pose for the young man with a self-effacing manner and a hand-held Canon.
Unmarried and unattached, Mr. Baan books his own travel, negotiates his own fees by e-mail (it helps that he speaks three languages) and carries all the equipment he needs in a shoulder bag. He works for architects, their clients or magazines, including several European publications. Last year the Italian design magazine Abitare sent Mr. Baan to Norway to photograph the Knut Hamsun Center, a museum by Mr. Holl north of the Arctic Circle. Mr. Holl then purchased the rights to the photographs, which were distributed to news outlets. Given the building's remote location, Mr. Baan's photographs will be crucial to how it is received internationally, Mr. Holl said.
In his spare time Mr. Baan is photographing a series of little-known Richard Neutra houses in Europe for a coming show at the MARTa Herford museum in Herford, Germany. And he has flown to Africa repeatedly to photograph the work of contemporary African architects, a personal passion. He had two books out last year, one on the work of Sanaa, the Japanese firm known in New York for the New Museum of Contemporary Art, the other on the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany. He accepted the Porsche commission, he said, knowing that he would take an approach to the building at odds with the smooth, luxurious image of the cars.
Mr. Baan maintains a studio in Amsterdam his nominal hometown where he has developed techniques for taking panoramic photographs of the insides of architectural models. As part of the symbiosis between Mr. Baan and the architects he works with, his panoramas of their models, presented to prospective clients, have helped them win commissions. In addition to working for stars like Mr. Koolhaas he is also helping to popularize the work of young architects whose work he admires, including Sou Fujimoto, who has created some highly innovative houses in remote parts of Japan.
Mr. Baan may never put down roots, but he and a friend, the Dutch-born architect Florian Idenburg, are considering building a two-family house in Brooklyn. (Mr. Idenburg has a wife and children.) That will give Mr. Baan a place to stay and yet another building, in another throbbing city, to use as a backdrop for his startling photos.

Keeping Up with the Joneses Cast Interviews!
Suburbia can be a scary place if you're not careful. In Keeping Up with the Joneses, directed by Greg Motolla (Paul), Karen (Isla Fisher) and Jeff Gaffney (Zach Galifianakis) have a lovely, yet quiet life. He works in the HR department of a mysterious weapons firm and she's a local designer. They do everything you'd expect; they send the kids off to sleep away camp, they have block parties, brew beer as a hobby and have sex quickly before they're interrupted by the routine of domestic life. However, when the glamorous and seemingly-perfect Natalie (Gal Gadot) and Tim Jones (Jon Hamm) move in, they start to wonder what the new kids on the block are hiding. Karen is convinced that the Joneses are living a double life. Once they're swept up in it, however, the Gaffney's may just regret leaving the peace of everyday suburbia behind.
ComingSoon.net got a chance to sit down with the Keeping Up with the Joneses cast, including Zach Galifianakis, Jon Hamm, Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot, to talk about the film. With Gadot and Fisher, we chatted about some rather questionable design work that Karen does, getting urinals in the script and what role Fisher should play if there is a second Wonder Woman film with Gadot. We learned all about "HR face" from Galifianakis, and the director's "fun takes." Then there is this scene where Natalie teaches another character to "throw like a girl," which Gadot told us about. In the film, there is a big set piece that involves a crazy driving scene. Gadot gets car sick and Hamm actually did most of the driving stunts. He gave us the scoop about what it was like.
Check out the interviews below and let us know if you're excited for the film. Keeping Up with the Joneses will hit theaters on October 21, 2016.

The work of New York State artist/printmaker Deborah Geurtze reflects a deeply rooted connection to the landscape of New York State. This exhibit will include new and retrospective paintings, color etchings, and monotypes highlighting the Mohawk Valley and Erie Canal.
Of Hudson River Dutch ancestry, Geurtze is descended from a long line of draftsmen, engravers, and painters who immigrated to Albany in the mid-19th century. Her interest in printing was sparked while a teenager working for her uncle at the Fort Plain Standard – Canajoharie Courier.
I made offset plates for the Standard/Courier on Saturdays...when it was quiet and Uncle Bill (Clarke) could tutor me. That was where my interest in printing was piqued, but I had no idea how lush fine art printing was until I walked into the print shop in Potsdam...
This exhibition centers on the waterways, land forms, and people of the area where the southern reaches of the Adirondacks meet the northern reaches of the Catskills, and where rivers and streams tumble over and through the limestone and shale of the Mohawk Valley, celebrating the path of the Erie Canal.

I don't know if it's finally getting some Fall weather here in San Diego (meaning it drops down to a chilly 70 degrees…brrr!) or what but this time of year always cranks up my productivity.
As a result, there's a T-O-N of change going on here at Rick Mulready headquarters.
Lots of behind-the-scenes systems stuff that I decided to do all at once for some reason.
(Quick business tip? Don't change your email system, hosting, and webinar platform all at once. Umm, yea…good times!)
I also have some super cool updates to my training courses…and a new podcast in the works!
Booyah! I'll be sharing more about all these things in the coming weeks so stay tuned.
Big Changes to the Facebook Ad Campaign Structure Set Up
In the meantime, speaking of updates and changes, wanted to give you the heads-up that Facebook has started rolling out its anticipated changes to the way you setup your Facebook ads.
And, they're pretty big changes.
You may not have these changes quite yet so if you don't, they're coming soon.
Here's what you need to know (there's also a video below where I explain everything):
You know how the Facebook ad campaign structure is made up of Campaigns, Ad Sets, and Ads?
- On the Campaign level you set the Objective.
- On the Ad Set level you set the budget and campaign dates.
- And on the Ads level, you set up your ads, chose the placement (i.e. – Mobile News Feed), targeting, and pricing.
Well now, Facebook has moved where you set your targeting, ad placement and pricing from the Ads level to the Ad Set level.
Here's the new structure:
Why the Changes?
The idea behind the update is to make it easier to see which ads are performing for you against specific targeting audiences.
Frankly, if you've been following my content for any period of time or are in one of my training courses like FB Ads for Newbies or The FB ADvantage, you know that the way I teach the ad set up process allows you to clearly see the best performing ads anyway.
I think it's about time they made these changes because the way they had it set up before didn't really make logical sense.
I'm betting you're gonna like this new update a lot. I know I do!
What Does This Mean for You Now?
If you have ads running right now, not to worry, you don't have to do anything at this point.
I mean, if you want to change your campaigns over to the new structure by all means go for it, but you don't have to…yet.
You have until the end of the year before Facebook makes it mandatory to be using the new structure.
Step-by-Step Video of the New Facebook Ad Campaign Setup
The big thing I want you to remember is you should have one targeting group for each Ad Set (again, how I've always taught it). With this new structure, it's intuitive to set things up this way.
I created a step-by-step video for you that explains all the changes and how they affect you.
What do you think about these new changes? Got questions? Leave a Comment below.

In case tropical storm Sandy tore you away from the race for state Attorney General, here are some tidbits from the campaign trail as of late:
According to a poll by the Philadelphia Inquirer, Democratic nominee Kathleen Kane is up 20 points over her Republican opponent David Freed. Statewide, the poll notes, 49% of those questioned said they would vote for Kane, compared to 29% for Freed. As PoliticsPA pointed out yesterday , that's an improvement for Kane from the Inquirer's earlier polling.
But the Inquirer notes that nearly half of the survey respondents said that neither Kane or Freed "had made much of an impression yet."
That shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, though, in a race that hasn't had much name recognition or back-and-forth on policy issues other than the handling of the Jerry Sandusky case. When reporting our story on the AG race, pollster G. Terry Madonna of the Franklin & Marshall College Center for Politics told me, "I don't even put this race in my polls. People don't know who the candidates are."
The new polling data comes on the heels of the latest fundraising totals for the candidates. As the Associated Press reported this past weekend (the latest campaign finance reports were not yet available online from the PA Department of State) , Kane has raised nearly $3 million, giving her an edge over Freed, who's raised about $2 million since the Primary. As the AP reported, Kane has a little more than $1 million on hand; Freed has more than $1.5 million on hand.

Joni Mitchell, one of the most gifted, contemporary lyricists and musicians around today, is just beginning to receive the popular acclaim her talent so richly deserves.
From the Canadian plains, she appeared in California in the mid 60's [sic] with a background in art, a self-taught guitar method and songs she wrote on love, life, and dying. (Take a look at her album jackets sometime; she does her own art work.)
Her first album, "Song to a Seagull", produced by David Crosby (Crosby, Still, Nash and Young), reveals some of her finest music, and yet, to most people, is non-existent. In fact, mention Joni Mitchell to someone and, if they're not a Mitchell conoisseur [sic], they'll probably respond with, "Oh yea, she did 'Help Me!'." Well, she's done much more; and she's done much that is better both lyrically and musically.
Did you know that, for example, she wrote "Woodstock," "Both Sides Now," and "The Circle Game"?
Her latest album, "Court and Spark", is a drastic change from her first-and all total she's done six-not better and not worse, just different. As she has grown, so has her music. Her voice, when she was younger, was very high though controlled; now it has matured along with her music and can be likened to a waterfall-at one instant close to the clouds, at the next, caressing the earth.
My favorite album is the one preceding "Court and Spark", called "For the Roses". The title song was written about a man who has sold himself.
She sings "Remember the days when you used to sit and make up your tunes for love and pour your simple sorrow to the soundhole on your knee. Now you're seen on giant screens and at parties for the press and for people who have slices of you from the company." She bemoans the fact that the once youthful poet-musician has broken into a thousand pieces, bought and sold like stock.
Another fine cut from this album is "Judgment of the Moon and Stars." She draws on a little astrology analogy and refers to her solitary and often criticized lifestyle as being decreed by the planets.
She comes to grips with her "singleness" through [sic] and concludes that he as an individual has much to say: "You've got to shake your fist at lightning now you've got to roar like forest fire; you've got to spread your light like blazds [sic] across the sky. They're gonna aim the hoses on you, show'em you won't expire. Not til you burn up every passion not even when you did...if you're feeling contempt, well then you tell it!" Those lines should speak to all of us in deciding whether or not to support what we feel and believe.
All of Joni Mitchell's music is exceptionally fine. All speak to the silent people within each of us, the people who sometimes "get the urge for goin," the people who live hidden within us without expression. Give yourself a treat - open yourself to Joni Mitchell.

Craig is The Mole!
Posted August 11, 2008on:

- 4 Comments
I knew it! My guess was right 8) Craig is the mole. I've suspected him since week 5, but I wasn't completely sure until last week. Well, I still had a little doubt that Nicole might be the mole. Mark? I think he took the game too seriously, and he was the success factor in some of the mission. And he actually won the game, I'm so happy for him, he deserves it. He's a family man, and he can really use the money. Good for him. Nicole? Well, I think she makes good money with her occupation. So congratulations to Mark for winning the game, and to Craig to be a great Mole, and to Nicole to be the last woman standing. 🙂
So tonight's show had a little back-to-back recap, reunion, the clues leading to Craig along the way, and of course the big reveal. All the executed players were called back, and moments of shame of those players were shown, again. 😛 In the show it was revealed that Mark had been so lucky few times. The tied and almost executed so many times. But the lady luck saved him a couple of times because she wanted him to win 🙂 The hidden clues were well-hidden, call me unobservant, but I didn't notice any of them at all. And I haven't missed a single episode!
I really enjoy this season's the Mole; it's been a while since I watch a really smart show. I really want to thank the producers to make such a great show. I really really really hope that they'll make new season of The Mole. 😀
Who is The Mole?

Craig's laugh on the beginning of the show sounded a little evilish. Edit note: I was right Craig is The Mole, read here. Nicole, like me, also suspected Craig, whereas Craig suspected Mark. Mark, in the mean time, was still undecided.
The first challenge was hard and confusing at first. They had to defuse a bomb and all clues were scattered all around the room. Without giving any instructions, Jon left the 3 players to solve the mission. Craig found the hidden time zone, and Mark and Nicole got to read the time zone map and wrote it on the board (so one of them could sabotage the mission by reading the wrong number). After getting weird combination of letters, Craig suggested to double check with the map again, which was a handy way to waste time. It turned out that Nicole misread the some of the cities' time zone. After, partly solving the clue, they ended up with Red + Blue. They could not decide to cut Red and Blue wires or purple one. Craig thought Mark was over-thinking stuff (they had only more than a minute) and stalled the mission. Nicole called Purple, and it was right!
The second and final mission in the game was an invidual mission to race and solve clues upon clues. The first one to finish would have a huge decision to make: to add more money to the pot OR to get a clue about the mole. Craig had the advantage because he learned about the area since he got there, on the other hand, Mark was having a hard time getting to his first destination, but he recovered and picked up his pace. Meanwhile, Nicole did a little crazy dancing and didn't even complete her task. Nicole had been acting weird (not the first time she did it), but it made me suspect Nicole a little.
So Craig and Mark were neck to neck to their final destination. Mark was a better runner, but he had to run farther (he was going to the wrong direction in the beginning). In the end, Mark won and he decided to take the briefcase, but we didn't get a peek at all, darn it! 😛 Because Mark took the briefcase, Craig even suspected him to be the mole, because that's just logical what the mole would do.
Tonight's quiz had 20 questions instead of the usual 10, and apparently today is not the finale! 😕 No one got executed and the mole will be revealed next week, along with the clues leading to him/her along the way. How the mole sabotaged the mission also would be revealed. The season finale of the mole will air on August 12 at 10 pm EST on abc, don't miss it! 🙂 Next week is gonna be a great finale, can't wait.
So who do you think is the Mole? I still believe it's Craig.

The 2nd mission was very challenging, it involves brain power (they were playing dublet) and physical strength (they were playing paintball). Mark solved the dublet first so he got to be a snipper, so the rest of the players have to run through the obstacle trying not to get shot. Paul, who said he was good in paintball and dublet, was the last one to solve dublet. But Mark never shot anything before, so he missed alot, but in the end, Paul's the only one who managed to finish the obstacle without getting shot. Luckily, Craig had the exemption card on him, so Mark earned the exemption for tonight.
On the first challenge, the final 4 are paired up. Mark and Paul, Nicole and Craig. Paul and Mark had a better partnership than Nicole and Craig. Both Mark and Paul did some tiny mistakes, but I think they were innocent mistakes. Nicole kept on doing unneeded angling and zooming, and it didn't do any good for Craig. Well, Craig messed up too by asking Nicole question, and Nicole "accidently" answered. Even though Mark's main suspect is Nicole, and Paul's is Craig, the mistakes occured on the first challenges gave them little suspicion towards each other. That didn't stop them to highly suspect Craig who failed the last part of the mission.
With Mark having the final exemption in the game, the rest of 2 or 3 players (if Mark was the mole) were in chopping block. During the execution, Paul was called first, and he was executed (he was aiming Craig and Nicole during the quiz). So from this point on, I would say that Craig is the mole. Nicole is still a possible mole, but I'm gearing towards Craig. Mark has the least of my suspicion, and if he turns out to be the mole, he's a really good actor.

Well, I kinda hate living in west coast. Because I couldn't participate in The Mole's quiz every week! I think they set the time for eastern time, and the quiz can only be taken at certain time. Well, I can take the quiz, but I won't have a clue because I haven't watched the show yet. 😡
Anyways, on this week's The Mole, the challenges require good memory and math. On the first challenge, the players (divided into 2 teams) have to solve simple clues to take them to places where they have to calculate things and memorize them. This challenge is simple yet not easy due to high brain power required. So just based on this challenge, it's hard to point out who's the mole. Paul got their team lost, Clay "the math genius" got math logic jumbled up, Nicole calculated wrong, and Craig lost track of the counting, Mark took his time calculating while they didn't have much time left. But int the end, with luck, literaly, they got all their answers right.
Second challenge, also deal with good memory and trust. The players had to choose someone to memorize some stuff about their loved ones. If the other person managed to answer 3 out of 5 questions right, he/she would get to spend some time with their loved ones. This challenge, there were some activities that arose minor suspicion, but in the end, all players got to see their loved one, which is nice.
Nicole's mom gave her suggestion to gave up, and she almost did it too. On the confession video, she said that she'd forfeit after quiz, but she didn't do it. In the end, Clay was executed, no surprise, I haven't suspected him at all that much. 😛 So, only 4 players left: Craig, Mark, Paul, and Nicole; all equally and highly capable smart mole.
On other tv show, I missed both Monk and Psych on Friday, but thankfully USA aired the encore the next day. Both shows are as good as ever. Because both shows' new seasons have been shown a lot of times by USA, there were no surprise on the story. On Monk, he got a new therapist and house (temporarily). Like Monk, I kinda missed Dr. Kroeger too, he's been on the show for so long. The producer decided to make Dr. Kroegers' death the same as what's really happening to the actor, heart attack. On Psych, Shawn's mother came back, so there are a few minutes of sentimental scenes. But, other than that, it's as funny as usual. My favorite scene was when Gus dragging Shawn out of his office. That was hillarious. Oh, and on the trailer it showed that Gus decided to quit Psych on text message, but I knew that he'd be back in. Psych won't be the same without Gus.

"Beltdriven has been on the scene for probably longer than you might realise… Paul McCarthy's dub and rare-groove show got hi-jacked late December 2005 by one Ben Harris, who brought in a hip-hop edge, and the two have been the odd couple of radio ever since, once referred to as "The Wogan and Westwood of internet radio".
Since the two joined forces, Beltdriven has become one of the South's premier hip-hop shows, with all tunes sourced and selected by the boys themselves. Whilst playing the newest and best UK tunes is the priority, they also play reggae, some American hip-hop, funk, and those old soul numbers that got sampled and turned into rap classics along the way… The idea is that Beltdriven only plays stuff good enough to go vinyl – ie turntables with a beltdrive, hence the name. Clever word play? Maybe not. Phat tunes, things you need to hear, and the newest and best tunes around? A certainty.
Enjoy the show."

July 11 (UPI) -- Executive Chairman Rupert Murdoch of 21st Century Fox announced Wednesday he's outbid rival Comcast with a $32.5 billion offer for British broadcaster Sky.
The two companies have been in a bidding war for Sky with Comcast having given an initial offer for in April.
The battle is part of a larger contest between Disney and Comcast to take over many of Fox's assets.
Fox's new bid for Sky, a European and British entertainment and communications company, amounts to $18.60 per share, which is 12 percent higher than Comcast's offer.
Comcast's offer was $31 billion in April and topped a previous offer from Fox, which already owned a 39 percent stake in Sky.
The new Fox offer raises its previous bid by more than 30 percent.
Fox is still awaiting approval from the British government to seal the deal, which is expected to come through this week.
Sky could help Fox compete upstarts Netflix and Amazon in the European market.

Coming of Age In Cambodia
A fictional family's trials during the Khmer Rouge's four-year reign of terror, when the hunt for 'class enemies' became a genocide.
For evident reasons, stories about genocide tend to be drenched in violence and death. That quality was reflected in the very title of the best-known work on the Cambodian genocide, the 1984 film "The Killing Fields." Nearly 30 years later, novelist Vaddey Ratner, a Cambodian survivor of her country's descent into a maelstrom of self-destruction, has taken a markedly different approach. For a tale about genocide, "In the Shadow of the Banyan" is unexpectedly quiet. Death is present, but its occurrence on a mass scale is only hinted at late in the novel.
During the Khmer Rouge's four-year rule, in 1975-79, Cambodia's radical communist regime killed between 1.2 million and 2.4 million people, perhaps half of them via execution. But instead of a tableau full of slaughter, Ms. Ratner offers an intimate account of the destruction of a single family during the Khmer Rouge's hold on power.
Ms. Ratner's tale is told through the mind and eyes of a young girl, Raami, who is 7 years old when the Khmer Rouge radicals sweep into the capital, Phnom Penh, and seize power. There are brief, elegiac moments at the outset, conveying the cozy, privileged life of Raami's family, which is descended from a princely lineage. Then suddenly, with the approach of artillery fire and the arrival of the victorious rebels, their world comes to a crashing end.
"In the Shadow of the Banyan" follows the wanderings of the girl and her family as they and other families are driven from one place to another, like cattle, by the revolutionary army. Between re-education sessions and farm labor, the families are divided and redivided as the Khmer Rouge constantly work to weed out "class enemies."
Raami's father, a noble-spirited poet, is among the first to be revealed through this process, his name unwittingly surrendered by Raami to a soldier who demands it. Afterward, her extended family argues over whether letting the regime know about his identity is a good thing ("They will realize soon enough who we are and give us some respect," a relative says) or an invitation to calamity. "Finally, Papa said, 'You didn't know.' His palm brushed my hair in that gesture he reserved for forgiveness when I'd done something wrong. 'It wasn't your fault.' "
In the Shadow of the Banyan
By Vaddey Ratner
(Simon & Schuster, 322 pages, $25)
Soon after, he is led away along with others who are presumably marked for elimination. This grim turn of events sounds one of the book's most endearing themes: Raami, who has been afflicted since infancy with polio, is stricken with a profound and abiding guilt over having revealed her father's true name to the soldiers. She will spend the rest of the story grieving over his loss, recalling his words and their love, and searching for him in glimpses of strangers. She begins to seek refuge in tales and legends drawn from Buddhist tradition, which inspire in her a kind of rapture.
At least five more of Raami's relatives and friends are destroyed over the course of the novel. As we witness their fates, we come to understand the nature of the madness that has engulfed the country. The leaders of the Khmer Rouge, now infamous figures like Pol Pot and Ieng Sary, remain invisible—and even unnamed—in the story, but Ms. Ratner's descriptions impart a clear and chilling sense of the headlong rush to create the imagined New Man once dear to radical communists.
Under Mao Zedong, China zigged and zagged, lurching now and again into periods of disastrous ultraleftism before easing back on class warfare and social engineering in order to repair the damage. During the Khmer Rouge's brief time in power, though, it was as if all of Maoism's radicalism, the model for Cambodia's, had been condensed and applied in a single go. This meant a war against landowners, the confiscation of property, and the destruction of people who were educated or had been exposed to Western culture—they were thought to harbor bourgeois thinking. It also meant wholesale indoctrination and a delusional bid to boost economic output, and hence national power, through increased agricultural output. Shouts one cadre: "All over the country, reservoirs, canals, ditches are being built so that rice can be planted throughout the year! Not just during the rainy season! Democratic Kampuchea is a powerful nation! The rest of the world will depend on our rice!"
The harder the revolutionaries push toward their goals, though, the closer the society edges toward collapse. Late in the book, Raami seems dangerously close to flirting with death—a vulture tracks the starving girl's movements as she steals unripe rice from a paddy. "I kept eating until my stomach started to bloat, until it hurt as if I had eaten a handful of pebbles. If that vulture was coming for me, I thought, I was well fed. I was ready."
Ms. Ratner says in an author's note, "Raami's story is, in essence, my story." When the Khmer Rouge swarmed into Phnom Penh, Ms. Ratner was 5 years old. Her father, like Raami's, came from Cambodian royalty and came from the intellectual class—and disappeared into the vortex of the regime's horrors. The novel's fidelity to real life gradually turns out to be a source of weakness. Though rendered in often lovely prose and marked by many emotionally wrenching passages, "In the Shadow of the Banyan" feels insufficiently imagined, almost like a diary.
What redeems Ms. Ratner's story finally, though, is the humanity that shines through in her storytelling. The attribute is on most affecting display in the author's depiction of a pure, unbroken love between daughter and father and in Ms. Ratner's portraits of the human will to survive.
Mr. French teaches at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism and is writing a book about China's relationship with Africa.

text: Hundreds of thousands of people are being kept in government-run camps [EPA] "We're particularly concerned about the [refugees] in the camps, and getting them out, getting them home. "The secretary-general said that he would like for me to go out fairly quickly to deal with follow-up issues and where they're going. "President [Mahinda] Rajapaksa agreed and so I'll be on the plane tomorrow with a small team." Rights discussions Pascoe is expected to visit camps in the north of the island and meet Rajapaksa and other dignitaries over several days. Focus: Sri Lanka Q&A: Sri Lanka's civil war The history of the Tamil Tigers Timeline: Conflict in Sri Lanka 'High cost' of victory over Tigers Caught in the middle Ban and Rajapaksa spoke by telephone on Monday, talking about human rights issues, political dialogue with the Tamils and alleged accountability for rights abuses committed by both sides during the war. Pascoe said that "a whole range of human rights issues need to be discussed", but added that he thought rights violations were not the sole responsibility of the government. Colombo promised to allow 80 per cent of the approximately 280,000 Tamils in state-run camps to return home by the end of 2009, and Western governments and the UN are becoming increasingly aware of the prolonged nature of the process. UN explusion Many rights groups have said that those in the camps are living in derisory conditions and for longer than necessary. The government has said that it needs to separate possible Tamil Tiger fighters from the IDPs and clear land mines before resettlement takes place. The fate of two UN employees in prison in Sri Lanka, accused by the government of collalorating with the LTTE, is also of concern to the organisation. They have been held since June, yet have so far not been charged. Additionally, a Unicef (UN children's fund) spokesman was expelled from Sri Lanka recently, being accused by the government of bias towards the Tamils, which the agency denied. Both cases were discussed by Ban and Rajapaksa on Monday, Pascoe said. The LTTE fought for four decades for an independent ethnic-minority homeland in the north of the island. The conflict left between 80,000 and 100,000 people dead. SOURCE: Agencies

The San Francisco #IDAHOT rally in Harvey Milk Plaza on May 17 was one of hundreds of events occurring worldwide demanding justice for victims of LGBTQ persecution on the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia (IDAHOT).
The event also celebrated the May 17 release of Chelsea Manning from federal prison. President Obama had commuted all but four months of the remaining prison sentence of Chelsea Manning, the Army intelligence analyst convicted of a 2010 leak that revealed American military and diplomatic activities across the world. As reported by The New York Times, "… the decision by Mr. Obama rescued Ms. Manning, who twice tried to kill herself last year, from an uncertain future as a transgender woman incarcerated at the men's military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. She has been jailed for nearly seven years, and her 35-year sentence was by far the longest punishment ever imposed in the United States for a leak conviction."
People carried placards stating: "Welcome home, Chelsea!" "Chelsea Manning is our queer heroine!" A large, red heart-shaped sign was inscribed, "We love you, Chelsea!" Some wore pink stickers encouraging: "Arise! Love! Resist!" A large rainbow flag was draped across the banister, and, of course, the ever-present huge rainbow flag flew high above everyone. The date of Manning's liberation coincides with the IDAHOT, which turns this decision into a much broader acknowledgement of the situation faced by transgender prisoners in U.S. jails.
IDAHOT was created in 2004 to draw the attention of policymakers, opinion leaders, social movements, the public and the media to the violence and discrimination experienced by LGBTI people internationally, and to all of those who do not conform to majority sexual and gender norms. The date of May 17 was specifically chosen to commemorate the World Health Organization's decision in 1990 to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder.
IDAHOT is now celebrated on May 17 in more than 130 countries, including 37 where same-sex acts are illegal, with 1,600 events reported from 1,280 organizations in 2014. These mobilizations unite millions of people in support of the recognition of human rights for all, irrespective of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression.
The San Francisco rally primarily focused on three subjects:
1- Demanding justice for victims of extreme LGBTQ persecution (e.g., the recent kidnapping, torture and killing of up to 100 gay men in Chechnya; the opening of a concentration camp there, and the continuing epidemic of transgender murders in the United States)
2- Resistance to the Trump administration's threat to LGBTQ people and families, including impacts on immigration and asylum
3- The aforementioned celebration of U.S. whistleblower Chelsea Manning's release from federal prison on May 17 with a show of solidarity for her continued wellbeing
In addition, Patrick Carney, founder of the Pink Triangle Project, had installed a custom-made, 10-foot pink triangle hanging from Harvey Milk Plaza, bordered by little flags from every representation of queerdom, and spoke about the significance of remembering the LGBT Holocaust victims.
Over 100 people attended, first keeping a moment of silence to honor all victims of homophobia, transphobia and biphobia, especially recent victims in Chechnya. Gary Virginia from Gays Without Borders organized and emceed the event.
"This rally is needed now more than ever—given the crisis in Chechnya with the government creating gay concentration camps involving torture and murders," he said. "We're also drawing attention to transgender murders in the U.S. and abroad, threats to the LGBTQ community under the Trump administration, LGBTQ immigration and family challenges, and the celebrated release of U.S. whistleblower Chelsea Manning."
The evening featured many eloquent speakers—including Carney, former California State Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, Melanie Nathan from African Human Rights Coalition, Lori Nairne from Queer Strike, Jeff Patterson from Courage to Resist and the Chelsea Manning Support Network, Subhi Nahas of Spectra Project (Syria), and activist and entertainer Donna Sachet. Each addressed subjects regarding LGBTQ crises in America, Chechnya, Africa or the Middle East. Mark Leno, candidate for mayor, sent his regrets, and Janetta Johnson, Executive Director, Leadership Team of TGI Justice Project, was also unable to attend.
Faux queen Deana Dawn got us all to sing along with her doing "I Am What I Am" from La Cage aux Folles. Closing the event, The Chelsea Manning Flashmob dancers performed their rousing routine to Michael Jackson's "They Don't Care About Us," and got everyone enthusiastically clapping hands or waving hands in the air. Finally, we all sang "We Shall Overcome" in unison and in hope for a better world.

|NY, NY United World Sports, the owner and operator of the largest annual rugby events in the United States, today announced a unique and innovative club affiliate marketing program for the Silicon Valley 7's, which will bring most of the world's greatest rugby playing nations to San Jose's Avaya Stadium on Saturday, November 4th and Sunday, November 5th.
The affiliate marketing program will give participating rugby clubs the ability to use select tickets to the Silicon Valley 7's as an asset teams can sell to generate awareness for the sport they love and earn revenue for their clubs. The process is very simple:
|"We like to think of this program as a kind of 'Girl Scout cookies' of rugby," said Jeff McDowell, EVP/CMO of United World Sports. "The local clubs get to network and generate exposure while raising awareness for the sport and most importantly, generating revenue to support their club initiatives. It is a fun and easy way for the sport to continue to grow and will get some new people to experience the fast-growing and exciting Olympic sport of rugby 7's this November in San Jose."
Among the 12 teams competing in this debut tournament are the men's sevens squads from Tonga, Samoa and Fiji, a trio of Pacific Island national teams competing in the same tournament for the first time since the 2007 USA Sevens. Also featured is the men's sevens squad from Ireland, the first time that the squad will ever compete in the United States. Joining them are teams from the United States, Canada, Australia, England, Chile, New Zealand, Japan and China, coming together at the Silicon Valley 7s as they begin preparations for 2018 international rugby sevens season.
Silicon Valley 7s adds another international tournament to United World Sports' growing portfolio that includes the annual USA Sevens Rugby tournament in Las Vegas, which is the largest professional rugby event in North America and the annual Penn Mutual Collegiate Rugby Championship in Philadelphia, the premier collegiate 7s championship.
Avaya Stadium, which opened in February 2015, has a capacity of approximately 18,000 and is the home field for Major League Soccer's San Jose Earthquakes. United World Sports has also partnered with the City of San Jose, the San Jose Sports Authority and the Fairmont Hotel, which will serve as the official partner and team hotel.
In addition to 34 international men's matches, the event will feature 20 collegiate matches, an international cultural festival, along with an Island concert series. .
Tickets start at just $55 and are available now at sevensrugby.com.
