Affiliate marketing is defined as the process of advertising that is considered as a trend nowadays for the Internet. E-commerce is booming and with the need to have the right marketing techniques, people need to get a better understanding of the different strategies present.
The process of affiliate marketing is quite easy, on the outside. Typically, the idea is to find another website connected to the product or services being offered. This is crucial as most search engines will only recognize web affiliates that are related to the product or industry of the main company. Once the list of affiliate websites are found, they will have to create ads such as flash banners, HTML tags, and links that will connect to the main website.
For many websites, they find it a profitable venture to be an affiliate. The reason they have is that once the links or forms are clicked or filled up, they are given a commission by the main website. To be a successful affiliate marketer, the terms and words used in the technique must be learned. Here are just a few of the most used terms and words used in the affiliate marketing strategy.
Above the fold - this is the term used for content found on tip of the email messages without actually having the need to scroll down. Content located "above the fold" will typically be the first words that online customers will notice and take heed of.
Advertiser - this is the company or the person who will be selling the goods or the products. In some cases, the term merchant is also applied to this entity.
Affiliate - the entity is best known as the website that will be marketing and selling the ads. He is also the one that will be earning commissions for every referral he is able to send out.
Agreement with affiliates - this is the contract between the parties that indicates the commissions and the terms that govern the business relationship.
Affiliate link - most of the time, this term is used as a means to describe the process of sending the web traffic to the main seller. Typically, there will be assigned URLs that will connect the ads to the main website.
Affiliate program - the term is used as a way to depict and portray the marketing techniques of the website.
Affiliate software - more or less, there will be plenty of these programs being offered in the market. Each will come with its own set of features, which makes it useful for the business entity using it. It is the solution that supports the creation of ads, links, and tracking of the affiliate movements.
Affiliate tracking - people or business organizations using the strategy wants to know the progress of the different affiliates. Hence, they use this term as a way to determine the movements of the members to the affiliate marketing program.
Auto-approve - affiliates will usually send referrals to the main website, and this is the term loosely used to indicate their approval or acceptance to the said customer.
Banner ads - advertising materials will be the core of the marketing strategy. The banner ads will be the most common and most used materials to sell and market a business product or service.
Charge back - there are certain times that a sale or customer referral will be returned back to the affiliate because it is unacceptable. This is the words used to portray such action.
Click through - the steps or actions that an online user takes to click on an ad and is transferred to the main product website.
Commission - the financial rewards that an affiliate receives upon an approved referral.
Cost per Action (CPA) - the typical expense that a company has for every conversion of a lead or a referral.
Cost per Click (CPC) - the cost of a single click to the main company.
Cost per Thousand - a term used to indicate a normal thousand impressions with the use of banners.
Impression - the level or the number of times a banner was displayed.
Manual approval - the process of validating a possible referral claim and approving it without any presence of an automated software.
Privacy policy - this is the protocol required for the sharing of certain information online. Typically, the standards set will be those administered over by the World Wide Web Commission. This is also a guide system for the amount or the extent of information that will be required from the prospective customer.
Pay per sale - the action of rewards wherein the main company only pays a commission to the affiliate when the lead is converted to a sale.
Pay per lead - this is the program procedure where companies will only pay for the referrals that are made into leads. These transactions would usually include software downloads, sign-ups on the forms, or test trials for a product.
Pay per click - the commission basis for this affiliate marketing strategy usually occurs on the very moment an online visitor clicks on the links and the ads on the affiliate site.
Performance based marketing - a term used to pay merchants when there is the conversion of a sales and possible leads to a new customer.
Residual earnings - typically, this is an earning phase where the affiliate will be earning profits even after a first sale has happened.
Spider detection - the process where the system detects the automated spiders and bots found online.
Tracking methods and systems - the type of system used to keep notice of possible leads and sales.
Omnistar Affiliate Software is the leader in affiliate tracking software. You can easily setup an affiliate program to grow your business in under 10 minutes. The software is extremely easy to use and very powerful. Omnistar is used by thousands of companies to start an affiliate program.

Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request, 33675-33678 [2016-12532]Download as PDF
[Federal Register Volume 81, Number 103 (Friday, May 27, 2016)] [Notices] [Pages 33675-33678] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 2016-12532] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request AGENCY: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, HHS. ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This notice announces the intention of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to request that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve the proposed information collection project: ``Eisenberg Center Voluntary Customer Survey Generic Clearance.'' In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521, AHRQ invites the public to comment on this proposed information collection. DATES: Comments on this notice must be received by July 26, 2016. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be submitted to: Doris Lefkowitz, Reports Clearance Officer, AHRQ, by email at email@example.com. Copies of the proposed collection plans, data collection instruments, and specific details on the estimated burden can be obtained from the AHRQ Reports Clearance Officer. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Doris Lefkowitz, AHRQ Reports Clearance Officer, (301) 427-1477, or by email at email@example.com. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposed Project Eisenberg Center Voluntary Customer Survey Generic Clearance The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) requests that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) renew under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 AHRQ's Generic Clearance to collect information from users of work products and services produced by AHRQ's John M. Eisenberg Center for Clinical Decisions and Communications Science (Eisenberg Center). The Eisenberg Center is an innovative effort aimed at improving communication of findings to a variety of audiences (``customers''), including consumers, clinicians, and health care policymakers. The Eisenberg Center compiles research results into a variety of useful formats for stakeholders. This effort has the following goals: (1) Conduct research into effective communication of research findings in order to improve the usability and rapid incorporation of findings into medical practice and decision making. (2) Conduct research into effective strategies for disseminating evidence-based products, tools, and resources to consumers, clinicians, and other health care professionals, and policymakers. (3) Evaluate outcomes reported by clinicians and other health care professionals resulting from participation in continuing medical education (CME) initiatives and activities. (4) Conduct research into factors associated with successful collaboration between AHRQ and partnering institutions and organizations in synthesizing, translating, and disseminating evidence- based research. Clearance is being requested to cover a three-year period in which differing numbers of products and research activities may be conducted during each year. The collections proposed include activities to assist in the development of materials to be disseminated through the Eisenberg Center and to provide feedback to AHRQ on the extent to which these products meet customer needs. These materials include summary documents that summarize and translate the findings of research reports for various decision-making audiences, such as consumers, clinicians, and policymakers. The summaries are designed to help these decision makers use research evidence to maximize the benefits of health care, minimize harm, and optimize the use of health care resources. In addition, each year, a unique research project will be undertaken to study successful approaches to disseminating AHRQ [[Page 33676]] products in various health care settings and clinical environments. Also, each year, the Eisenberg Center will develop one interactive decision aid for clinical problems identified from selected research reports. The intent is for the decision aid to increase the decision maker's knowledge of the health condition, options, and risk/benefits; lead to greater assurance in making a decision; increase the congruence between values and choices; and enhance involvement in the decision making process. Information collections conducted under this generic clearance are not required by regulation and will not be used to regulate or sanction customers. Data collections will be entirely voluntary, and information provided by respondents will be combined and summarized so that no individually identifiable information will be released. This study is being conducted by AHRQ through its contractor, Baylor College of Medicine, pursuant to AHRQ's statutory authority to conduct and support research on health care and on systems for the delivery of such care, including activities with respect to the quality, effectiveness, efficiency, appropriateness and value of health care services and with respect to quality measurement and improvement. 42 U.S.C. 299a(a)(1) and (2). Method of Collection The data collections listed below will be implemented to achieve project goals. Note: Assessments such as interviews and surveys are here denoted formative if conducted prior to product development or determination of dissemination channels; usability testing or pretesting if conducted while reviewing a draft product, proposed dissemination approach, or other proposed content/strategy; and evaluation if conducted for summative evaluation or to assess satisfaction after the product has been in use or the dissemination campaign, learning activity, or other initiative undertaken. Data collections will include the following: (1) Interviews for Product and Decision Aid Development, Testing, and Use. Individual interviews will be conducted with clinical professionals, patients, or other health care consumers, or health policymakers. In some cases focus groups may be substituted for patient interviews. These formative and pretesting/cognitive interviews will allow for (1) collecting input from target audiences regarding the development of summary products and decision aids; (2) determining if intended information and messages are being delivered effectively through products that are developed and disseminated through the Eisenberg Center; (3) assessing whether changes in topical knowledge levels can be identified following exposure to Eisenberg Center informational or instructional products or aids; (4) identifying product strengths and weaknesses to facilitate improvements that are practical and feasible; and (5) assessing decision support from the perspective of each audience. In addition, the Eisenberg Center will conduct a new research project annually to inform the enhancement of existing health information products, beyond what is currently being provided. The accompanying assessments will likely consist of interviews conducted with target audience members and may be integrated into the existing product interviews discussed above. (2) Interviews for Dissemination Activities. Interviews will be conducted with leadership and staff of health systems, hospitals, and/ or clinics in which dissemination activities are conducted to explore, prior to initiating the project, those pathways holding the greatest potential for successful uptake of the AHRQ materials. Interviews will be conducted again after project conclusion with administrators and product users (e.g., consumers, clinicians) to assess success of dissemination efforts, perceptions around product access, challenges that arose, and strategies to facilitate future successful dissemination initiatives. (3) Survey for Decision Aids. Following delivery of the decision aid, a user survey will be completed to explore subjects' impressions of the tool, including ease of use, clarity of presentation, length, balance of information, rating of interactive features, and overall satisfaction. Both clinicians and patients/consumers will be surveyed. For patients, the customer satisfaction survey may include decisional outcome measures (e.g., decisional conflict, desire for involvement in decision-making), measures of attitudes and self-efficacy, and indicators of choice intention or actual choice made. If the aid is evaluated within a clinical context, measures of physician-patient interaction will also be considered. Additionally, clinicians may be interviewed about the impact of the aid on decision making, clinical flow, and patient outcomes. (4) Survey for Summary Products (initial, follow up). Very brief surveys will be offered to health care professionals, consumers, and policymakers that use the online summaries. Immediately upon accessing the summaries, visitors will be asked to complete a brief survey assessing for whom they were seeking information, how the product might be used, and an email address for a follow-up survey. Respondents will subsequently be sent an email asking them to complete a follow-up online survey assessing how the information has been used, whether it influenced health care practices, and any barriers to use or suggestions for improvement. (5) Survey of Patient and Consumer Advocacy Organizations. Each project year, representatives from consumer and patient advocacy organizations will be invited to attend a meeting and participate in ongoing activities to facilitate engagement in AHRQ systematic review, translation, and dissemination activities. Surveys by phone or online questionnaire will be used to assess the quality of the in-person meeting and ongoing activities, the impact and value of engaging with AHRQ, the value of research and translation products for the target audiences, how partners and their constituents are using the products, and ways to make the products and partnerships with AHRQ more useful for partners and have a broader reach. (6) Survey of AHRQ Partners. AHRQ, through the Evidence-based Practice Center (EPC) Program and Eisenberg Center, works in partnership with organizations when developing, translating, and/or disseminating research reports and related products. AHRQ's partners include developers of clinical practice guidelines, payers, other Government agencies, private companies, consumer and patient advocacy groups, and health care systems. Surveys by phone or online questionnaire, followed by targeted interviews, will be used to assess the impact and value of AHRQ research products for the target audiences, determine how partners are using the products, and identify ways to make the products and partnerships more useful for partners and have a broader reach. (7) CME Outcomes Survey. AHRQ through the Eisenberg Center will offer AMA PRA Category 1 CME credit for certain products that it develops. Clinicians wishing to claim credit must complete an outcome assessment survey delivered online two months after completing the activity. (8) Interviews and Surveys for Dissemination Research Project. Each project year the Eisenberg Center will propose and conduct a unique research project aimed at disseminating products. As part of that project, formative interviews and potentially [[Page 33677]] cognitive testing will be conducted with consumers, clinicians, and administrators from participating health systems, hospitals, and/or clinics for purposes of assessing current dissemination initiatives, similar products available to their consumers, ways to optimize dissemination, and other indicators as determined by the project aims. These three audiences may also be asked to complete follow-up surveys and/or participate in interviews to document project outcomes and lessons learned from the study. The information will be used to develop, improve and/or maintain high quality health care informational products and services for the lay public and health care professionals. Each product previously developed by the Eisenberg Center was proposed, drafted, tested, and revised with heavy reliance on data collected in a manner similar to those approaches described in this clearance. This includes data collected at the formative stage when ideas for the product and its information parameters are being developed, through draft testing and revisions, and finally product implementation and evaluation of its usefulness in practice. Work on implementing and evaluating dissemination strategies and approaches will complement the development activities in optimizing delivery to the targeted audiences. Estimated Annual Respondent Burden Exhibit 1 shows the estimated total burden for the respondents' time to participate in this research. These estimates assume a maximum of 141 Summary products over 3 years with separate products developed for clinicians, policymakers, and consumers. Formative interviews, and in some cases focus groups, will be used to conduct needs assessment and will be held with clinicians and consumers for development of the products and decision aids, and additionally with policymakers for those products in which policy recommendations are applicable. Interviews will be conducted with no more than 2,115 persons for product development, 180 persons for decision aid development, and 180 persons for development of dissemination initiatives over 3 years, and each will last about 60 minutes. Once the products are developed they will be subjected to in-person or telephone interviews for purposes of usability and product testing with clinicians, policymakers and consumers. In-person/telephone interviews will be conducted with about 2,115 persons for products and 180 persons for decision aids over 3 years and will take about 60 minutes on average. A second round of interviews will be conducted only occasionally with one or more of the targeted populations if necessary due to substantial product revisions. These interviews may also be used to inform product enhancements in relation to the annual enhancement study. Because these specifications cannot be determined in advance, clearance is being requested for two testing rounds with every product and every audience. Evaluation surveys will be conducted with approximately 6,000 representatives across the targeted audiences (i.e., consumer, clinician, policymaker) for the health information products and 2,400 persons who have used the decision aids over the 3-year period. The product surveys will take about 5 minutes to complete, and the decision aid surveys about 10 minutes. A follow-up survey will be completed for the product evaluations, which will also last about 5 minutes, while a subset of 180 of those having used the decision aids will be asked to participate in a follow-up evaluation interview lasting an hour. Those involved in or targeted by the dissemination initiatives will be asked to participate in evaluation interviews, which will include up to 480 persons completing interviews across the 3 project years. Note: Because the timing of interviews with persons at the 6 total partner organizations has not yet been finalized, AHRQ is requesting that all dissemination-related interviews be approved for the first project year. For simplicity, the interviews are presented as annualized in Exhibits 1 and 2. The unique dissemination research project to be proposed and completed annually will include 135 formative interviews with consumers, clinicians, and administrators, with each lasting 1 hour. Follow-up evaluation surveys and interviews will be conducted with 360 and 180 persons, respectively. AHRQ partners will be asked to complete surveys and interviews in relation to their prior or ongoing collaborative work with AHRQ. These will include 150 people completing surveys and 60 follow-up interviews. Similar types of surveys designed with the goal of improving products and expanding their research will be completed by 90 representatives of advocacy organizations across the 3 years, with each survey lasting about 10 minutes. Clinicians that have completed CME accrediting requirements and are requesting CME credit will be asked to complete a follow-up outcomes survey two months following completion of the online activity. These will be completed by no more than 27,000 clinicians over 3 years and will require 5 minutes to complete. The total burden hours are estimated to be 13,875 annually or 41,625 over 3 years. The total annual cost burden is $237,604.

1. It's an important issue in the scriptures. Romans 12:13, Hebrews 13. It's hard work, it's uncomfortable and it's out of our comfort zone, but we are called to hospitality. Christian pastors and elders are called to have an open home. It was important to Christ, so it's important to us.
2. We were once in need of hospitality. We are to welcome others as Christ welcomed us. Treat people as you want to feel. Treat people as a native - one of us.
3. Love with the Christian nature of love. Let your love be genuine, a brotherly Christian love is a bond that will last forever. Not a general abstract, "I love you all," but a specific love.
4. Hospitality is an outworking of the Gospel. Remember when you were separated from Christ.
What can we do?
1. Pray - pray for our church staff, members, visitors. When you come to church, come to be fed, but also prepare to feed others. We focus on this during holidays like Christmas and Easter, but always need to be aware of guests.
2. Challenge you to meet someone new. Talk to someone new.
3. Sit somewhere different. We get accustomed to our routine and see the same people. Sitting in a different area will allow you to see different faces.
4. Look for people you haven't seen. Ask names. Greet warmly and listen to them. Help them find where they need to go. Ask them to sit with you.
5. Strive to go to the next level and take this out to hospitality in our homes. At least one a month/once a quarter invite someone over. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, not "entertaining" where the focus is on you, but hospitality where it focuses on them.
Join us for our Wednesday night study May 30 at 6:30 pm, as we continue the discussion on hospitality and how you can be involved in this ministry at WABC.

View Jitterbit Developer Portal
The 10.12 release date is by region:
APAC: Released 6 January 2020
EMEA: Released 7 January 2020
NA: Released January 9, 2020
Included in this release are updates to these Harmony components:
The Sandbox Cloud Agent Group and cloud applications accessed through the Harmony Portal were updated to 10.12 at the time of the release. Private Agent installers are available in each region as of the conclusion of each region's release.
As of January 14, 2020, Design Studio and Private Agent versions 9.7 have reached end of life and are longer supported. We recommend that all users of these (and earlier) versions upgrade to the latest versions as soon as practicable.
Jitterbit Google authentication plugin
A new plugin, Jitterbit OAuth - Google - Service Account, is available that authenticates with Google's implementation of OAuth 2 for Google service accounts, placing the auth token in the variable
google.oauth.token.auth and the expiration number of seconds in the variable
google.oauth.token.expireSeconds. The new plugin is available on Cloud Agents or can be installed on Private Agents through the Management Console Customizations > Plugins page.
Project backups and restore
Project backups are now automatically created upon deploying a project. You can access project backups from the project history by selecting Restore this version from the actions menu available on a project deploy event.
PostgreSQL database driver updated to 9.4
The PostgreSQL JDBC database driver that is packaged with Private Agents and the Jitterbit Cloud Agent Groups has been upgraded from PostgreSQL JDBC Driver 9.1 to 9.4.
ServiceNow connector driver updated to V19
The ServiceNow connector has been upgraded from ServiceNow CData JDBC Driver V18 to V19.
Project variables can now be edited directly from the list view
The summary table of project variables that shows all project variables in a single list can now be edited inline, without requiring you to open an individual variable's configuration. Project variables can also be deleted in bulk from this screen.
Deploying a project is now faster
The deploy process has been enhanced so that unchanged components are not redeployed. This speeds up deploying a project.
Linux Agents processing web services with a SOAP fault now report the correct status
When using a Linux Private Agent or a Jitterbit Cloud Agent Group to run a SOAP-based web service operation, the operation status is now correctly reported as a SOAP Fault as applicable. Previously, as of version 10.1 Linux Agents, the operation status for a SOAP fault was incorrectly being reported as an Error status. This issue affected operations using SOAP endpoints in Cloud Studio, and Web Service Method and Workday endpoints in Design Studio.
Data syncing errors related to API calls no longer occur
When running operations that call an API, intermittent 400 errors related to data syncing no longer occur.
Renamed components are now updated wherever they are referenced
After renaming a component, any area of the project where the component is referenced will reflect the updated component name.
Operation status is now indicated on child operations
After manually running an operation, operations that are downstream in the operation chain now display the real-time operation status in the same manner it is displayed for the top-level operation.
Invalid mapping errors now disappear when resolved
After resolving an error regarding an invalid mapping, the new mapping is now validated properly. Previously, in some cases the invalid mapping error would persist in the UI even after the error was resolved.
Mappings with special characters are now valid
Target field mappings that contain special characters such as a hyphen (
-) or a period (
.) are now validated properly. Previously, the mapping would be displayed as invalid even if there was no issue with the mapping.
Empty transformation scripts now show default tags
When mapping a target field in a transformation using a script, the Jitterbit Script
</trans> tags are now shown by default. Previously, the tags would appear only after the script was saved.
Migrating a project more than once now works
An already-migrated project can now be successfully migrated to a third environment. Previously, a generic "unexpected" error would occur and the project in the second target environment would be empty.
Database table/column names delimited by special characters are now supported
When using a database that uses special characters (any of
{ or
}) as delimiters, database tables are now accessible during configuration of a Database activity. The characters used to define delimiters (
Quote Begin and
Quote End) can be specified in the Private Agent configuration file under the
[DbDrivers] section.
A Snowflake view can no longer be selected in a Snowflake Delete activity
During configuration of a Snowflake Delete activity, views are no longer shown in the object selection screen. Previously, if you selected a view for deletion, you would receive an error message that the object must be a table.

How I Wore My Heels…My Day Off
I'm having a love affair. With this new top from ModCloth, that is. At first, I wasn't so sure about it since it's a color I don't typically wear. But I added a pair of white jeans, my favorite new wedges and a pop of accessories and hello. I think I'll wear this all day now! See, it's little C.'s second Mother's Day Out today and I have the entire morning to myself! So, I'm about to go pick up some breakfast and relax a bit (after I write this post, of course)…ahhhhhh. I'm so excited, yet can't wait to pick up the little guy. But I'm thinking after breakfast, a spur-of-the-moment shopping spree? Hey, I can't resist…Fashion Week awaits me!
Here's how I wore my heels:
* "Chosen with Care" top gifted from ModCloth by Moon Collection (I looooove this embroidered, cut-out neckline and it's actually lined with satin…so comfy and sweet!)
* White bootcut jeans by Seven for All Mankind (you really can't get more classic than this…a summer staple and one I will miss after Labor Day (hey, I'm from the south…). But I can't wait to check out the collection come fall!))
* Nude wedges by Nine West (I've worn this in a previous post, but these were on final clearance at TJ Maxx…guess someone couldn't wear a size 6 because these babies go with everything)
* Coral necklace (I found this just this weekend at a local shop in town, Tulips, for just $10. Yes, $10!!! I love how it makes any outfit better.)
* Straw fedora gifted by Hat Attack (I'll be super sad to shed this come fall because it's just too easy to throw on while walking out the door on those bad hair days, haha)
* Rhinestone bracelet gifted by Sheyna (more to come on this brand/site, but it's a customizable jewelry site and I can't wait to share more with you soon!)
*Handbag by Urban Expressions (I carry this tons and love how it can be a shoulder bag or crossbody)

Discussion in 'Gaming' started by Jutsei, May 11, 2018.
They apparently have some of the Armored Core devs working on it.
Excuse you?
yeah I kinda sorta recognized the first name and then I saw Shoji Kawamori the father of MACROSS
Nintendo's play Sonic 3 & Knuckles music in there pre treehouse today. Just as a news flash.
Maybe it's because I slept through most of E3, maybe because it's been a decade, maybe because it has been YEARS now of "oh it's totally this year." "Yeah, sure". But it has finally sunk in, new Devil May Cry. I can't describe the absolute joy that gives me. And Itsuno who has usually been humble as shit in the past is talking fucking big this time and that gameplay looks on fucking point.
The only thing that seems wrong about this, and I blame Ali Edwards doing "Devil Trigger" for this, is that we haven't been told Mick Gordon is doing the soundtrack this round, because that would be amazing.
Sekrio looks excellent, Daemon X Machina might as well be a new Armored Core, Nioh was cool so I imagine 2 will be a well, DoA 6 will probably be awesome, Resident Evil 2 will undoubtedly be wonderful, Hitman 2 has promise, Yakuza ports are a dream come true, EVERYONE is in Smash no matter how big, Remedy is making a new game as did Platinum and none of it compares.
Separate names with a comma.

Do your words have weight, or only a tickle?
I ran across a story awhile back about a blind man sitting on the steps of a building with a sign by his feet that read: "I am blind, please help." A creative publicist was walking by the blind man and stopped to observe that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own coins in the hat, and without stopping to ask for permission, took the sign, turned it around, and wrote a new message. He then placed the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left. Later that afternoon the creative publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost completely full of bills and coins. The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if it was him who had changed his sign. He also wanted to know what the man wrote on it. The publicist replied: "I just changed your message so people could relate to it." He wished the man well, said goodbye, and went on his way. The blind man didn't know it, but his new sign now read:
It's amazing how simple words arranged in coherency according to proper rules of syntax and grammar can move our hearts and draw us to action. Both messages on the blind man's sign were true, but one created awareness, empathy, and action while the other was blurred by the overstimulation of messages thrust upon those passing by.
Jesus was like that. He was a Master at arranging words in such a way that eternity was thrust into moments of time. He saw what others couldn't, and He opened the heavens to the eyes of the spiritually blind. He took an act of radical devotion (Mark 14:3-9) and used it as a foreshadowing of His burial. He spoke rigorous words of commitment (Mark 8:34-38) and comforting words of peace (Matthew 11:28-30). He connected historical events to the message of His life (Matthew 12:40), and He used activities common in an agrarian society as expressions of uncommon truth (Luke 8:4-15).
I was at the Indiana Prayer Breakfast a couple of weeks ago and had the opportunity to hear Ravi Zacharias speak. Dr. Zacharias is perhaps the premier Christian apologist of the late 20th-early 21st centuries. I was spellbound when he said, "Eternity's anvil was provided against which the hammers of time must find their meaning." I mean, who talks that way? The richness, poetry, and imagery take us to newer heights of understanding.
For those of you, like me, who need to read a Ravi Zacharias quote four times before it starts to sink in, don't despair. The issue is not making the simple complex but the complex simple. The issue is making the bland tasteful and the dark winter give way to the freshness of spring. When you combine the power of words and the power of the Spirit, hearts are opened, the blind see, and the oppressed are set free.
So the next time you're engaging a friend in a conversation, think how your words, empowered by the Spirit, can bring life, hope, and healing. There's nothing wrong with talking about sports or the weather, but try to paint a picture with your friend that brings life to a blank or broken canvas.
Remember, the key is not how much knowledge you have in your head but how much of Jesus you have in your heart. Aspire to grow in knowledge, especially wisdom, but not in contrast from a heart yielded to Christ. Jesus quoted from Psalm 8:2 when He said, "Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies you have prepared praise" (Matthew 21:16). Solomon wrote, "The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off" (Proverbs 10:31).
As the old adage goes, "Watch your tongue!" But more importantly, "Watch your heart," "for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks" (Matthew 12:34).

Vegan Matzah Balls
The brilliance of this recipe is that you don't boil the matzah balls. You bake them! This way, they stay intact. The quinoa holds the mix together (and adds protein).
Makes 24 matzah balls
1 cup quinoa flakes
2 cups boiling water
One box (2 packets) matzah ball mix
1/4 cup light vegetable oil (like safflower)
- In a large mixing bowl, cover the quinoa flakes with the water. Let stand for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Stir in both packets of matzah meal mix along with the oil, and mix until well blended. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
- Just before baking, preheat the oven to 275º F.
- Roll the mixture into approximately 1-inch balls; don't pack them too firmly. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, carefully turning the matzo balls after 10 minutes, until firm to the touch; don't let them brown.
- If making ahead of time, let the matzah balls cool completely, then cover until needed. Warm them briefly in a medium oven and distribute them among the soup bowls, allowing 3 or 4 matzah balls per serving.

Compton Construction builds unique, creative spaces spanning everything from co-working spaces to some of Columbus' favorite breweries.
And wood. And leather. The chosen materials for this pitch went above and beyond a plain old printed booklet. Inspired by vintage beer crates, the custom box, made by Columbus Idea Foundry, was laser-etched with our BrewDog-inspired illustrations.
The hand-bound proposals told the authentic story of Compton's history, experience, and culture. It may or may not have also included an image of their Principal riding a bear…
It did. It definitely did.
Throughout the pitch, our copywriting was heavy on sarcasm to match BrewDog's "stick-it-to-the-man" attitude.

Ready to teach English in Vietnam? Start by choosing a location + date.
Hanoi (North)
If you want all the culture of Vietnam but on a smaller scale than Ho Chi Minh, the capital city of Hanoi is the perfect places to wander through Old Town's narrow alleyways stuffed with goods from the cheap to the outlandish; or stroll through one of its many parks; or sip a wonderfully sweet Vietnamese coffee at a sidewalk cafe while you watch the motorbikes bend and weave through people and traffic in a never-ending whirl of chaos. It's full of historical sites and opportunity, welcoming locals and tourists from around the world.
**Courses are limited to 12 enrollees each month
Ho Chi Minh City (South)
Ho Chi Minh City may have given birth to the term "hustle bustle," and it does it well. It's a metropolis spread over waterways with a perfect blend of old and new: dilapidated waterfront housing amidst modern skyrise buildings; narrow, wandering alleyways and big freeways; delectable street carts (or bikes!) in front of five-star restaurants; street-stall shopping among fancy boutiques. No matter what you're looking for — rich culture, friendly locals, incredible cuisine, teaching jobs galore — you'll find it here.
**Courses are limited to 16 enrollees each month
Frequently Asked Questions
What will my schedule be like during the TEFL course in Vietnam?
Expect a busy schedule Monday – Friday, with class sessions from 8:30am – 3:00pm most days, and 2-3 hours of homework in the evenings. The final week will be reserved for your practicum (at least 20 hours of observation and teaching practice). However, your weekends are free to explore on your own.
Do I need to speak Vietnamese to teach English in Vietnam?
Nope! The schools want this to be an English immersion experience for the students, so no Vietnamese spoken in the classroom. However you can opt into the Vietnamese language course for a small fee if you want to learn some basics.
Can I still participate in the TEFL Vietnam Program if I don't have any teaching experience?
No worries! The TEFL certification course will prepare you for everything you need to know to successfully teach English as a foreign language, and it will answer any questions you might have about local culture and what to expect in the classroom.
Can I still participate in the TEFL Vietnam Program if I've never traveled abroad?
No problem. This program is perfect for the first-time traveling teacher.
How does job placement work?
We're confident that our training partners can equip you with the skills needed to be successful in finding and succeeding in your teaching role, and also aware that there are more jobs available than teachers to fill them. That said, we ask you to keep an open mind since your job placement could be anywhere in the country (but you can choose from Vietnam or Cambodia!).
- Every application for our TEFL Vietnam program is thoroughly vetted;
- We offer a quality product that is Australian Government accredited and internationally recognized;
- Our course trainers and tutors are qualified, professional educators who know how to equip people with the skills they need to embark on a career path teaching English;
- We have an established network of partner schools and language centers built up over many years working in the TESOL /TEFL sector; and
- Trainees are made aware before they join our program that they have obligations that must be fulfilled – successfully completing the necessary assessment tasks and conducting themselves in a professional manner are just two of these obligations.
How long are the teaching contracts after completing the TEFL course in Vietnam?
Most schools will ask you to commit to at least six months.
How much money can I make as a teacher in Vietnam?
All job placements offer competitive market rates. Most teachers earn between $1,000 – $2,000 USD per month depending on location and qualifications, which is enough to live comfortably in Vietnam.
What if I decide to extend my contract and teach longer in Vietnam?
Assuming you've successfully fulfilled your first contract, most schools will be more than happy to have you stay longer!
What is the provided accommodation like?
Our partners offer accommodation in residential properties and local hotels within easy walking distance of the training centers. Each trainee is allocated their own bedroom and bathroom. Fixtures and fittings in each bedroom include: air conditioning, WiFi, a bed (including bedding), a wardrobe, a desk & a chair. Laundry facilities are readily available.
Cooking facilities are available in our residential properties in HCMC, but not in the local hotels.
See a video of the accommodation in HCMC here, and in Hanoi here.
Do you help with the visa process during the TEFL Vietnam Program?
Yes! We'll guide you through the appropriate visa process and provide you with the correct documentation to receive your visa.
Can I still apply for the TEFL Vietnam Program if I'm not a native speaker?
Yes, but we do require non-native English speakers to have a bachelor's degree and to speak, read and write English fluently.
Will I be able to get a job after the TEFL course in Vietnam if I don't have a degree?
Yes, as long as you're a native English speaker.
While teaching in Vietnam, will I be the only foreign teacher at my school?
Probably not. Almost all of our placements have at least one other foreign teacher on staff, and some have many. However, even if there aren't many foreign coworkers at your school, it's almost guaranteed there will be others at a nearby school or somewhere in the town.
Can I apply to TEFL Vietnam with my friend/spouse/significant other?
Yes! We frequently place friends and couples together. We do our best to get you in the same city if not the same school. Applicants will have to submit their applications together, and each applicant should be sure to notify us of their intention to be placed together.
Is housing included as part of the TEFL Vietnam Program?
Accommodation is included for the duration of the four-week course (26 nights) and after that you can opt to have our partners arrange long-term accommodation for you, or find it on your own. Housing in Vietnam is very affordable.
Will someone be there to pick me up at the airport when I arrive for the TEFL course in Vietnam?
If you pre-arrange for airport pickup ($30) and send us your arrival details, we'll arrange pickup.
Are flights included and booked for me as part of the TEFL Vietnam Program?
No, flights are not included in the tuition, and you are responsible for arranging your own travel.
Can I teach in the city/province of my choice after completing the TEFL Vietnam course?
You may submit a country preference (Vietnam or Cambodia) and a regional preference (ie north, south, etc.) for a teaching location, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to honor your request. We work with employers all over the country, and it depends on which schools have a need for teachers at the time of your course graduation.
How will I get paid while teaching in Vietnam?
In most cases, you'll have help setting up a local bank account with an ATM card, and your monthly checks will be directly deposited. Some schools pay in cash.
Is it easy to send money home from Vietnam?
Yes. Almost any bank can exchange your Vietnamese dong into your native currency, and Western Unions are available almost everywhere to send money home. Many teachers send money home to pay student loans and other bills while they're working in Vietnam, and it's relatively hassle free.

Error: When attempting to mosaic 1-bit raster data to a geodatabase, an "invalid raster data" error occurs
Error Message
This problem is addressed in ArcGIS 8.1 Service Pack 1. See the Related Information section to download this pack.
A 1-bit raster has been loaded onto the geodatabase. An attempt is made to mosaic another 1-bit raster to the same geodatabase. The operation may fail with the following message: "invalid raster data".
This error only occurs when the existing ArcSDE raster is not located at the top of the whole mosaicked extent. The negative extents are being rounded improperly, resulting in an offset that is one pixel short. This causes the data length verification to fail, triggering the error message.
Solution or Workaround
This issue has been resolved in Service Pack 1 of ArcGIS 8.1.

One of the first legal causes of action to consider when confronting the annoyance and hazards of gas-powered lawn and landscape equipment is whether the use of these machines constitutes, legally, a nuisance. Noise can rob us of the quiet space within which we can think and peacefully exist. It can be a loss of our place. A nuisance is defined by law as something that prevents you from enjoying your property rights. But having a cause of action, or giving authority to public officials, does not necessarily settle the issue. You have to be able to prove your case, or get public officials to act.
Government agencies charged with enforcement of regulations are generally understaffed these days. And once the contractor who may have caused a nuisance has left, the agency that arrives on the scene to answer a complaint has a hard time sorting out perception from reality.
What are reasonable ways to approach these issues? What are some actions that communities can take which would work better? Here are a few ideas, offered to start a discussion on how nuisance law can be made more effective.
- Limitations on timing, frequency and extent of noisy activities that impact on neighbors can be established. Responsibility for nuisance imposed on neighbors could be placed on those who order the service as well as those who perform it, in the form of potential fines or orders to desist. This could create an incentive to hire contractors who do not raise the risk of a nuisance complaint. Imagine a process by which your neighbor, who hires noisy contractors who disturb your ability to work at home (or just take a nap), is informed that he or she has created a nuisance—and along with this notice comes a list of contractors who are certified as Quiet Service Providers. Your neighbors may not even be aware that they are creating a nuisance, and may be willing to switch to quieter services. Providing the certification could promote competition and bring down the price.
- A registration requirement for lawn care services that use gas-powered machinery could create a useful differential that would favor quieter, cleaner operations. A fee for registration could be used to buy equipment for measuring noise nuisance levels. A work notification requirement could be established which would allow for inspecting at the time work is ongoing. No such requirement would be necessary for electrically powered equipment, or raking.
- A state could pass legislation making it easier to take someone to court in a private nuisance action, setting out what the standards could be. The noise-measurement monitors bought by the local fee revenue could be lent out to residents who wish to collect evidence and establish causes of action under the state legislation. The municipality could have its own monitors, to confirm measurements. These instruments could help measure not just decibels but sones, the psycho-acoustic measure that we need to fully understand the impact of the noise source on humans. Simply establishing this program would send a message to contractors that would likely motivate some to provide quieter services.
In a sense, a noise nuisance is only the proverbial "tip of the iceberg." There are also many serious environmental and occupational exposures associated with the use of these gas-powered devices.
All of which will be considered in future postings here.
Rick Reibstein is a lecturer in environmental law and policy at Boston University and Harvard Extension School. He co-chairs the Quiet Communities Legal Advisory Council with Jeanne Kempthorne, founder of the Good Neighbor Mediation Project, Salem, MA, and a former civil litigator and federal prosecutor.
