Thank You Marketing is Even More Important in the Digital Age
Mother taught you many things that are important to running a successful business, but the most important were those magic words that can get you anywhere: "Please" and "Thank You." You remember those words, don't you? With the days of "tightening the belt," Return on Investment, and keeping your eye on the "prize" being the necessary realities of business, we've become so streamlined that many of the human elements of business such as relationship building have been stripped away. The addition of digital communications has added even another layer of disconnect to those human relations.
Corporations are seen as out of touch with their clients and customers. What if it didn't have to be that way? What if you could value tangible results and intangible relationships? You actually can have your cake and eat it too if you go back to Mom's advice.
Successful business owners need to build and nurture positive relationships with the three audiences that make it possible for them to be in business: their employees, current customers and future customers. Building those relationships is as simple as realizing one simple truth: each employee and customer thrives on personal recognition and gratitude.
A thank you that is memorable and meaningful goes miles toward establishing loyalty. Showing appreciation is particularly important for service businesses, as your customers don't receive a tangible product that reminds them of your business the next time they are looking for a similar service. Thus, service businesses must focus on quality of execution and customer service to achieve brand differentiation.
Technology has changed much of the way we communicate with clients, but it can also be a great tool in your Thank You Marketing as well. How do you say Thank You currently? Do you give small gifts, gift cards, appreciation events? If so, technology can help you to streamline this.
Thank You Cards: Automate the sending of thank you cards, and follow up greeting and post cards with Send Out Cards. You can write and store unlimited cards and even set up multi-step mailing campaigns. While it does cost to join, it's pretty reasonable. Best of all you can upload your own handwriting and each card is printed and mailed with a real stamp.
Flower/Candy Gift Giving: Need flowers delivered? There's an app for that! Many florists such as FTD have mobile apps and even ordering kiosks in some high traffic offices to allow you to have flowers delivered globally. Websites like Psychic Flowers will even allow you to enter calendar events. The same is true with chocolates and candy gifts; there are many websites that will send candy, chocolates or cookies to your list.
Appreciation/Relationship building Events: A corporate "holiday party" was once the norm, but due to budget cuts, and/or fears of impropriety, they have been obliterated from corporate culture. In the day of emails, voicemails, etc., we have sterilized our relationships with our employees, vendors, and customers alike. We need to get back to putting a human face, voice and presence in our relationships – personal interaction. Corporate events have evolved as well. From team building enterprises, to group community service projects, there are many events that can be done with a positive outcome for a company. Technology can enhance these events, such as encouraging photo submissions from apps like Pinterest or Instagram to Scavenger hunts with apps like Foursquare, and invitations from companies like EventBrite.
Gift Certificates: Giving a gift certificate as an employee reward for a job well done or as incentive can say thank you in ways beyond a paycheck. Many websites like 7P Gifts will send out gift cards, and have multiple options of stores to choose from and cards for men and women.
Virtual Assistants: Finally, even if you don't have the time to make sure the Thank You Marketing is done, there are many personal virtual assistant services out there who you can hire on retainer or on a project basis to get this done for you. Companies like eVirtual Services or Time Etc are two companies that offer Virtual Assistant Services Nationwide.
Thank you marketing is not a new concept – but how it gets done these days with technology is. We used to conduct business personally and usually with a handshake involved, meaning we actually met with our clients to seal the deal. Mother always knew we'd succeed if we mastered certain social and business skills. Mother knows best.

So I decided to vote None of The Above in the European Elections today — but I included a little note.
For those of you who struggled like me with what was the best move to promote individual freedom I hope you think this was a reasonable approach. It was the best I could come up with that balanced democratic participation, the values of freedom and opposition to the EU.
The note read…
"To whom it may concern,
In today's European elections I have decided to spoil my ballot paper and vote None of The Above. I think it both appropriate and in the democratic spirit that I explain my action in a few short sentences.
To be clear I thoroughly oppose the EU. I believe it to be a despicable institution that is anti-democratic, corporatist in outlook and has totalitarian tendencies. I truly hope that one day the buildings it inhabits across the globe stand as empty monuments to mankind's arrogance and folly.
As a man who holds these views it may seem natural for me to vote for a party such as UKIP. While I have considered this option and believe that Nigel Farage is a decent, honourable and freedom loving man I cannot bring myself to do this. UKIP are a party with very misguided views on immigration. And as someone with many friends and loved ones of foreign birth I believe it would be a great injustice on my part to vote for such a party.
These are the reasons I spoil my ballot paper.
Yours faithfully,
A freedom loving individual

Keep your garden going through fall, changing things up along the way
Warm your garden with exuberant colors: gold, yellow and bronze chrysanthemums, black-eyed Susans, snapdragons, asters, bright-faced pansies, bicolored marigolds. Set them off with the icy blue-green of dusty miller. Add dramatic darker tones with ornamental kale and cabbage, which cheerfully welcome chillier temperatures, or artemisia and dracaena, both grown for their dramatic foliage.
Fall is the time to prune and shape small trees and bushes, and to add new residents to your yard. For fiery color, think of maple trees, which change to brilliant crimson, yellow or orange each autumn. Or choose the golden-yellow foliage of the quaking aspen, which has become almost iconic in the West. Birches, whose leaves also glow yellow, have white or yellow bark that adds yet another interesting visual element to your landscape.
Maybe it's time for more than simple splashes of color. Redesign your yard, or perhaps just part of it. If you're feeling adventurous, gather graph paper and Crayolas and start sketching. You'll need to remember which plants get along best in your hardiness zone, and the shape and height of each new player in your lineup. You'll be getting help from your local nursery, but a fairly detailed hardiness zone map is available from the United States National Arboretum at www.usna.usda.gov.
If you run into designer's block, you might decide instead to shop online for a ready-made plan and an array of appropriate plants. Here are a couple of starting points: www.LandscapingIdeas.Online.com and www.Great-Landscaping-Ideas.com.
Putting a garden on wheels means you can fool Mother Nature, well, a little bit. A luxurious hibiscus, a graceful palm, even a tall cactus can live quite happily in a large container on casters, for instance. Assemble a few in different sizes. For warm autumn days, move your containers onto the patio or balcony, where they can double as planters. Let them spend cold months inside, next to a sunny window.
Paying attention to fall chores will bring big dividends next spring.
Now's the time to select and plant tulip, daffodil and hyacinth bulbs.
It's also the season for mulching with either commercial mixes or less expensive grass cuttings and leaves raked from your own yard. Landscape designer David Beaulieu (www.landscaping.about.com) mentions these and other autumn projects and, wisely, reminds gardeners of this simple but all too easily forgotten job: Drain and store hoses to prevent freezing and rupturing.

Author: Joe Barr
Over the past two years, I've reviewed free software first-person shooters including Tremulous, Alien Arena, and Nexuiz — all top-notch games. Now we can add Urban Terror to that list. While the first three sport other-worldly, sci-fi-style opponents, Urban Terror goes for realistic opponents — as realistic as today's headlines. You're fighting terrorists in Algiers and other locations around the globe, and you're using realistic weaponry to do it.
Urban Terror 4.1 is a cross-platform — Mac, Windows, and Linux — free software game developed and maintained by Frozen Sand, LLC. Earlier versions of the game required a copy of Quake III in order to play, but the game now runs on a modified version of the free ioquake3 engine. To get started, download the Urban Terror ZIP file, unzip it, and execute the appropriate binary in the Urban Terror directory that you created as you decompressed the downloaded file.
Depending on your distribution and X Window configuration, you may run into an "Out of Range" problem when you start the game. I did, running on Ubuntu 8.04 using a restricted Nvidia driver with a resolution of 1280×1024. My workaround was to set my desktop resolution to 800×600, start the game, adjust the System settings for 1280×1024, exit, restore my normal desktop resolution, then start the game again. There are other fixes mentioned in Ubuntu forums.
Urban Terror provides a clean, easy interface for both game setup and game play. The opening screen, shown in Figure 1, offers you the option of playing the game, setting it up, starting a game server, viewing previously saved demos, or leaving the game. Clicking setup from the opening screen allows you to tweak your settings for Controls, Player, Game Options, or System. Choosing Player lets you set your player name and gives you a choice of gender in a various garb for both Red and Blue team play. Selecting Game Option gives you access to nine submenus to tweak everything from the size, type, and color of the cross-hair for aiming your weapons, to displaying (or not) frames-per-second of game play. You can even control whether blood, bleeding, or wounds are shown. Complete information on all the options is available in an online manual.
Get in the game
Urban Terror provides no local play mode where you can practice against the bots before appearing in public. But if you want to practice on moves, weapons, or maps, without the distractions of people laughing at you and trying to kill you, start a non-dedicated server and then have at it. As soon as you start the non-dedicated server, you'll be joined to it as a player.
Once you feel ready to make a public appearance, click Play Online, and a server selection screen will appear. If the screen shows no servers, click Get List. Even if a list of servers does appear, it's a good idea to Refresh List before jumping on a server, since there is no guarantee that a server is still online, or that it is still playing the same type of game as the last time you played.
You can filter the server list by game source (Local, Internet, or LAN) or by type of game. You can also tweak the interface so that full and empty servers are not shown. The list can be sorted by any column displayed. When you've found the server you want to join, click Connect.
Urban Terror offers several game types. If you're a noobie like me, start with a Free For All, since nobody really minds how often you get killed in FFA. If you start out in a team game, where others are counting on your skills, you may not be so lucky. Other game types include Team Deathmatch, Team Survivor, Follow the Leader, Capture and Hold, Capture the Flag, and Bomb Mode.
The first thing to do after getting in the game is to select your weaponry. You can choose an assault rifle, grenade launcher, sniper rifle, machine gun, or submachine gun for your primary armament. Unless you choose the 90-round IMI Negev machine gun, you'll also need to pick a secondary weapon, either a shotgun or a submachine gun. For a sidearm, you have the choice of either a 9mm Beretta or a .50 caliber Desert Eagle.
You also have the choice of high-explosive grenades, smoke grenades, or no grenades at all. Pick either type of grenade and you can also choose one item from the following list: Kevlar vest, Kevlar helmet, silencer, laser sight, med kit, tactical goggles, or extra ammo. Choose neither variety of grenades, and you can pick two items from that list instead of only one.
Game play is fast and furious. Expect to be killed early and often as a noobie, and skill does matter. In FFA mode, you're typically dead for only about six seconds, then you're right back into the action.
The discussion forums on the Urban Terror Web site is very active on a wide range of related topics, including news on leagues, tournaments, and the latest game developments.
If you're more interested in running a server than in playing the game, it's easy to get your Urban Terror game server on the Net — not counting any tweaks required for your firewall or router, of course; you're on your own when it comes to configuring those devices. The critical things to select when you set up a server are the options for dedicated (the choices are No, LAN, Internet), the game type (FFA, Team Deathmatch, Team Survivor, Follow the Leader, Capture and Hold, Capture the Flag, or Bomb Mode), and the game map. Out of the box, Urban Terror 4.1 comes with more than 20 different maps, and more community developed maps appear all the time. If you join a game on a server running a map you don't have, you'll need to download it in order to be able to play. Those aren't the only server setup choices, of course, just the bigs. There are dozens of others, and you can find them documented in the aforementioned manual.
Urban Terror is an excellent FPS. As promised on the Urban Terror Web site, the mix of realism and fast-paced fun provides exactly the kind of fun FPS players are looking for. This one is highly recommended.

F: Fulvii Ursini schedae Bibliothecae Vaticanae (Vaticanus Latinus 3225), also known as the Vergilius Vaticanus or "Vatican Vergil." A magnificent illustrated codex written in Italy in rustic capitals at the end of the fourth or the beginning of the fifth century AD. The surviving 75 leaves contain parts of the Georgics and scattered sections from throughout the Aeneid. Originally it would have included the complete Eclogues, Georgics, and Aeneid. 50 illustrations survive (see Wright 2011, full text at Google Books) out of an original total of around 280. Though the text contains many errors it nonetheless preserves some readings of great importance (Conte 2011, x), and is the one of the oldest surviving sources for the text of the Aeneid.
Wright 1993, 1-2:
"The Vatican Vergil is the most important surviving ancient example of an illustrated book of classical literature. We have several early illustrated biblical manuscripts, but the Vatican Vergil, having been made in Rome within a couple of decades of the year 400, is older than all but one of these, and because of its classical contents it draws on still older traditions. We also have a few ancient illustrated scientific texts, but they necessarily allow only a limited range of artistic expression. For illustrated classical literature we have only two other ancient manuscripts, both from later in the fifth century: the Ambrosian Iliad is a sadly damaged set of miniatures cut out of a book once generally comparable in character to the Vatican Vergil, while the Codex Romanus of Vergil is a large and pretentious book, but it has carelessly painted illustrations that in many aspects suggest the transition from classical to medieval bookmaking. Therefore a close study of the Vatican Vergil offers our best opportunity to find out how a fine illustrated book was made in classical antiquity, how it embodied long-standing traditions of classical art.
"This study must be undertaken carefully, with great patience. First there is the problem of the sad condition of our book (now Vat. lat. 3225 in the Vatican Library). Its seventy-five surviving folios are scattered fragments, sometimes a single leaf, sometimes a cluster of four or five successive leaves; they now contain fifty illustrations, some of them badly damaged. But from these fragments it is easy to reconstruct the form of the original book. It must have contained, as was customary at the time, all the canonical works of Vergil but no introductions or other accessory texts, and so it comprised about 440 folios bound in one volume. Extrapolating from the surviving illustrations and the traces of pigment from lost paintings, we can conclude that there were about 280 illustrations. The book was a precious copy of Vergil, fully illustrated but reasonably handy in size, made to be read and enjoyed. Where we have a relatively well-preserved group of successive folios we can appreciate directly the character of the book, but we must take a deliberate effort to imagine it in perfect condition and in its full original extent.
"A fine book of this kind was still a fairly new invention when the Vatican Vergil was produced; indeed, no surviving book of comparable quality is significantly older. Previously the standard form of book had been the papyrus roll, but that form had serious disadvantages, especially for the luxury market. Each book of the Aeneid or of the Georgics required a separate roll, while all ten Eclogues could be written on one roll. A reader unrolled the roll from the right hand into the left while reading columns of text, and then rolled it back up before putting it away. Papyrus has a relatively rough surface that absorbs ink well and also holds pigments reasonably well, but it was much less appropriate than parchment for fine books. Papyrus is also relatively fragile, and therefore with constant use a roll would wear out rather quickly. A luxury roll could be made of parchment, but all the unrolling and rerolling hastened the process of causing the pigments of an illustration and even the ink of the text to flake off the smooth polished surface of the parchment. Once it was invented, the new codex form—our normal book—had enormous advantages, not only because it made handling easier, allowing a reader to turn quickly to a particular passage, but also because it permitted much more elaborate paintings. The heavy application of pigment for an elaborately decorated frame or a fully painted background, impractical in a roll, could now be used to make book illustrations that in style are miniature versions of the wall paintings known from Pompeii and Rome."

The concept of control is rampant in healthcare. With puffed chests and reassuring certainty, the medical establishment regularly touts, "She's got her cancer under control," or "He's learned how to control his Tourette's syndrome."
But what most people don't realize is how the concept of control is unusually emphasized in the diabetes community. The medical establishment has gone so far as to create a new definition for the word. When doctors ask someone with diabetes, "Are you in control?," they mean, "Are your blood sugars balanced?" and "Are you following the doctor's orders?"
Most people are also unaware of the treatment that people with diabetes receive when their blood sugar levels are "out of control." It's the dirty little secret that nobody wants to talk about. It's the thing that medical professionals don't want to admit. People with diabetes of all ages, from all walks of life, are regularly reprimanded, shamed and degraded by healthcare professionals when they don't meet medical standards for normal blood glucose levels.
One adult patient described the experience of being wrongly accused of "noncompliance": "He kept bawling me out, telling me that I wasn't minding him, and I knew that I was. He told me right then and there, 'You're just plain not minding me.' And I said, 'I know better -- I am.' "
Diabetes educator Maureen Anthony describes the typical reaction she receives from diabetes patients: "When I enter a patient's room and announce that I am the diabetes nurse, they actually cower like whipped puppies."
Daryn Stier, a psychotherapist with Type 1 diabetes, explains how many diabetes patients have gotten to the point where they simply avoid their doctors: "I've talked to countless people with diabetes. When they have high blood sugar numbers, they don't go see their doctor. They expect to be told off . . . or feel like a failure in some kind of way. And I think it's an unfortunate relationship that exists between the medical establishment and person with diabetes."
What's driving all of this? How did we get to the point where doctors have come to view diabetics as errant children in need of a good spanking while patients are scrambling to hide their report cards so that they don't get the belt?
Disability writer Lennard Davis would say it all started during the industrial revolution. Davis asserts that it was then that the body came to be seen as an extension of the factory machine, which led to the idea that there is a mechanical perfection within the human body.
Yet, this notion that our bodies are machines that can be perfectly controlled is blatantly discredited in the case of diabetes. San Francisco resident Jesse Foster, who has lived with Type 1 diabetes for 40 years, explains, "Even to this day, diabetes is just a difficult disease. You try to do all the right things, and then you kind of go . . . but how come [my blood sugar is] 250 or 260?"
What's ironic is that healthcare professionals readily acknowledge that there are a multitude of factors that impact a blood sugar levels -- emotions, stress, illness, hormones, insulin absorption, metabolism, etc. Yet, there's almost always an assumption that if one's blood sugars are not "in control," it's because the person is ignorant, incompetent or "noncompliant."
Now, what about all of the healthcare professionals who are reading this and tearing their hair out saying: "People have no idea what we have to deal with. You try getting the average couch potato to start exercising and to cut down on their Ben & Jerry's. For every person with diabetes who is diligent about their care, there are 10 others who aren't. So yeah, we'll try anything to get patients to break out of their denial and start dealing with their condition."
Yes, it's true, there are many people with diabetes who aren't practicing optimal care and some who aren't taking care of their conditions at all. Although there may be valid reasons for why this mind-set has developed, it's clearly created a serious problem in the diabetes community that's interfering with diabetes care.
Diabetes psychologist Barbara Anderson explains how it's more productive to be honest with diabetes patients about the limits of control, "You have to be able to work with somebody to help them always strive to getting blood sugars in the target range but we can't blame them for high blood-sugar numbers. . . . Because it perpetuates the myth that the patient can achieve 100% control over blood sugars and that's not true. And once you can join with the patient and meet around that truth . . . then you really have a strong partnership between a provider and a patient."
Meeting around this truth will not eliminate the challenge of getting people to care for their diabetes, but it's an important step in helping patients deal with the reality of their conditions. For while we may be able to influence our health, ultimately we are not "in control." That's a hard truth for all of us to face.

The buttons are not too high and are easy to access. The side buttons use TTC switches and the same goes for all other buttons, except the right and left click button where Omron switches are used. CoolerMaster was keen on longevity and Omron micro switch technology promises a minimum of 5 million clicks and years of fun with Recon. Recon has nine programmable buttons in total.
The top of the mouse is rubberized and feels just about right under your palm. The Recon is medium size mouse measuring 64.4 x 116.4 x 42mm, thus it should be good for users with both palm grip and claw grip.
Unlike other CM Storm mice, the front of the Recon features two protrusions on both sides of the USB cable. Ambidextrous symmetry in action.
The Recon is a wired mouse and the cable length is ca. 1.8m. The cable is plasticized and rubber coated and it closely resembles the cable used on CM Storm's Ceres 400 gaming headset. The cable ends with ferrite choke and golden plated USB connector.
The mouse features a 4000 DPI sensor, making it top of the line when it comes to optical mice. The Avago 3090 optical sensor offers users the ability to change precision on-the-fly in four 800DPI increments. LED indicators display the current DPI setting.
If you're wondering how to tell optical and laser sensors apart, you can either consult the manual or peek into the hole. You'll see that laser mice have a narrower aperture and don't have that healthy LED glow when connected to your computer. Laser mice use beams in a spectrum invisible to the human eye.
Next up is the anti-drift control sensor. A quality optical engine should include an anti-drift system that would provide lossless performance during lifts and drops. In other words, it's the distance that dictates how far the mouse goes before the sensor stops tracking movement. If the distance is high, cursors tend to move while you're lifting the mouse. Needless to say, nobody likes that. Recon's optical sensor has lift-off-distance of 1mm to 5mm and the lift-off-distance can be adjusted throught the software.
Unless you want to use advanced options like macros, profiles and custom buttons, there is really no need to install any software. However, if you want the added functionality offered by the Recon, you need to download CM Storm Recon software, which can be found here. After the installation it will also allow you to install new firmware in case the Recon is not up to date.
There are a lot of features and many of them can be used on the fly. You can see the Recon software tabs and options in the screenshots below.
The buttons tab is opened by default. Here we can change functionality of each of the nine buttons. Profiles are listed at the bottom of window, independent of the tab. Up to five profiles can be active at the same time. You can not edit the default profile.
Each of three LEDs can be assigned a specific colour. You can write your own RGB code to create the desired color, and even the intensity can be controlled.
The profiles are saved on the hard drive, and you can create as many as you need, but up to five profiles can be stored in the mouse memory.
The info button shows the hardware version, the firmware version, the sensor version and the software version.
Good ambidextrous gaming mice are few and far between, making the Recon a very interesting choice for left-handed gamers. Better yet, it doesn't feature a tacky, oversized design like so many gaming mice today. In other words, it will look and feel at home in the office or in front of a gaming rig.
Build quality is good and the rubberized finish is pretty comfy and nice to the touch. Due to its compact it's also a good choice for gamers who don't have huge hands, like teens and women.
The combination of an Avago sensor, Omron and TTC switches promises gamers plenty of accuracy. For most gamers 4000 DPI will be more than enough.
At €40 it is not the cheapest thing around, but it is competitively priced.

medyo OT: for me, what stood out as one of francism's best performances was his portrayal of a student boarder from bacolod in GMA-7's sitcom UFO (urbana, felisa, & others). i don't know if his roots had any factor in his very accurate playing of that role -- his atenean lolo was IIRC a senator or a member of the old philippine assembly from negros occidental -- but the accent was spot on. my bedan brothers-in-law say he was a good classmate of theirs, very friendly.
and just so i'm back on-topic, i 2nd/3rd/4th big_cat's, ranger's, and john paul manahan's top 3!* ;D
edited to add: puede ko bang gawing top 4 songs? ;D i particularly liked his version of the e-heads' "superproxy" that was first aired on 01 january 2006 -- one of the few instances where the cover was just as good as the original.
requiesciat in pace, maestro rapper. this country is made lesser by your departure.

Flights to Lebanon with Qatar Airways
Lebanon is a tiny country that, in terms of culture, spans the Arab world and the West and makes a fascinating holiday destination. Travel to Lebanon with Qatar Airways and discover impressive scenery, friendly culture, and amazing cuisine in the heart of the Middle East.
Known as the Paris of the East at one time, the capital Beirut is still a charming and sophisticated location, famous for its wonderful backdrop of mountains and the antique ruins that lie all around the surrounding landscape. The people are renowned for their unfailing hospitality and indomitable spirit.
The city is full of buzzing entertainment venues and restaurants, and has some of the best museums and galleries in the region. Lebanon is easy to get around because of its size, and from traditional souks to archaeological sites, island reserves and natural cave systems, you will not run short on activities to do here.
The old souks lying between the Castle of St. Louis and the Sea Castle consist of a labyrinth of alleyways, and present a great insight into what old Beirut used to be like. A walk along the Corniche will undoubtedly prove relaxing with fresh seafront breezes. Alternatively, take a boat ride out to the Palm Islands Reserve. These three islands are an UNESCO World Heritage Site and a haven for endangered species such as monk seals and loggerhead turtles.
Byblos is probably Lebanon's most famous archaeological site. The 12th century castle inside the entrance was built by the Crusaders, and the site was already ancient when they arrived. It's a good spot for panoramic views, and over to the west you'll find a Roman amphitheatre. Baalbek is another ancient site of great importance in Lebanon and was one of the main cosmopolitan centres in this region when the Romans were in charge.
Visit Lebanon with Qatar Airways and enjoy an unprecedented Middle Eastern travel adventure that combines everything from history and culture to food and fashion.

Thryothorus semibadius (riverside wren)
Riverside Wrens (Thryothorus semibadius) love the underbrush. The area around Manuel Antonio (Costa Rica) is full of Riverside Wrens. They have several distinct songs, most of which are strident and loud. Riverside Wrens, like House Wrens, are masters of "theme and variations" singing - it seems each individual comes up with his own song, which fits snugly within their basic theme. Funny how such an inconspicuous bird can be so conspicuous. This call I refer to as the excited "stream" of calling. [Editor's note: This is almost certainly a duet -- CSP]

This afternoon, Governor Palin tweeted:
Complete Transcript of Governor Palin's Facebook Note, which preceded her tweet:
Obamacare = Stray Dog, So Says President
Today at 3:27pm
What am I missing, folks? We're called obstructionists and made to feel uninformed in the Obamacare debate as we point out this is not a patient-driven, market-oriented approach to health care cost challenges. We've been saying for months that this is government takeover of our personal choices of insurers and doctors. We're called liars when claiming that this is all about government mandates and control of up to a sixth of our economy.
And yet, shockingly, the president admitted yesterday exactly what we've been saying: that his Democrats and lobbyists have crafted bills that in fact will prevent us from keeping our current insurance and/or choosing our own doctor. He said:
The last thing I will say, though — let me say this about health care and the health care debate, because I think it also bears on a whole lot of other issues. If you look at the package that we've presented — and there's some stray cats and dogs that got in there that we were eliminating, we were in the process of eliminating. For example, we said from the start that it was going to be important for us to be consistent in saying to people if you can have your — if you want to keep the health insurance you got, you can keep it, that you're not going to have anybody getting in between you and your doctor in your decision making. And I think that some of the provisions that got snuck in might have violated that pledge. [emphasis added]
Thanks to Tom Bevan at RCP for spotting this. The president's statement is shocking, enlightening, and in an odd and unfortunate way also encouraging. Folks, this admission tells us we're not off-base and we need to stay vigilant so we're not missing anything else in this scheme. This trillion-dollar government takeover of our health care system is full of
"stray dogs and cats" (the president's words, not mine), and that's what we've been saying all along.
Commonsense conservatives have better ideas on how to start tackling rising health care costs. Reps. Paul Ryan, Mike Pence, Eric Cantor, John Boehner, and others have offered solutions. I commend their efforts to counter the White House's attempt to ram Obamacare through as these Congressmen seek bipartisan, sensible solutions. I implore them to speak louder because we're listening, and we're counting on them!
– Sarah Palin

Some 40 years ago, Frank Perdue began making commercials, becoming one of the first corporate bigwigs to appear in ads for his product – one that he just happened to resemble.
The spots worked, in part, because Perdue came across as genuine and likable – even if it took a supposedly tough man to make a tender chicken.
The old Perdue ads came to mind recently with a New York Times report that a new set of commercials are planned, starring the late chicken man's son and pitchman successor, Jim, and a bunch of company employees, in keeping with regular-folks approach. We also got to thinking about Frank Perdue with the rise of homemade commercial-making team Rhett & Link.
For the uninitiated, Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal have spent the last couple of years traveling the country, helping small businesses produce low-cost, goofy TV ads – many of which have enjoyed a life beyond local airwaves, earning viral status.
Thanks to YouTube, you don't have to go to Corydon, IN to catch the commercial for the unfortunately named Butt Drugs pharmacy ("When I think drugs, I think Butt Drugs," one customer declares). And you'll never have to step into Ray's Midbell Music in Sioux City, IA, to hear the mini rap about how it's cool to play in the high school band (You may have to go to the prom alone/But that's a sacrifice worth making to play the sousaphone).
We're getting a big kick out of the unlikely admen's new IFC show, "Rhett & Link: Commercial Kings," which offers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the cheesy viral ads we love.
We came to the show, which premiered last Friday, with some trepidation that it might be an excuse to mercilessly mock the humble business owners and local talent who are turned into stars of sorts. But like their commercials, Rhett and Link's show is handled with humor and a certain affection for their subjects. It's less a reality show than a humor-infused documentary where we learn about the folks who aren't looking for 15 minutes of fame as much as 15 seconds in an ad to help their businesses.
The first episode's primary characters – a woman who runs a dog transportation and exercise service ("Super Shmuttle") and another who operates a cat sitting business (she claims to "speak cat") – come across as eccentric, to be sure. But they're treated respectfully by the ad makers, who take their job, learning about the businesses they've been tapped to promote.
We're looking forward to Friday's installment, which gives the back story to perhaps our favorite Rhett and Link work: the recent period costume-filled rap musical for Presidential Car Wash of North Hollywood, CA (I wrote the Declaration of Independence/I'm going to wax this minivan with a vengeance).
Rhett and Link, meanwhile, are spearheading the new LoCo (Local Commercial) Awards with prizes that include the George Washington outfit from the car wash spot. The contest, while clearly a promotion for the show, also can be seen as a celebration of the do-it-yourself spirit – even if can't hurt to have a little help from a couple young, creative videomakers.
Frank Perdue had more than a little help – he hired a big-time ad firm to create the commercials that projected his down-home image. Rhett and Link, with their decidedly anti-Mad Men approach, give us something new and different to crow about. With Independence Day nearing, check out the patriotic-themed car wash video below:

Peeps featured in Racine museum exhibit
The Racine Art Museum has opened its most popular community event: an annual Peeps exhibit that centers around the brightly colored marshmallow candies shaped as bunnies or chicks.
All 129 exhibits were submitted by artists and amateurs. The show opened Friday and runs for three weeks.
Last year's event drew 4,000 people, and this year's exhibit was already proving a hit, museum spokeswoman Laura Gillespie said.
"It's our most popular community event," Gillespie said. "I think after winter, everybody needs a blast of color."
This year's entries include Peeps made up to look like the Beatles.
Another display represents a specific choir at Gifford Elementary School in Caledonia. It was created in part by Angela Janota, the school's music teacher and orchestra director. Each Peep was crafted to resemble students in the choir.
"Each child in the program has been represented, immortalized in Peep form," Janota said. "I want them to come and see their own Peep and their own name ... As a kid I know how I'd react."
Alissa Burke, 11, made an exhibit of brightly colored Peep flowers called, "Boupeep." She said the effort took her five hours to make.
"I just like flowers," she said.

The social sector includes for-profit and nonprofit organizations that are governed and financed to support their mission of improving social outcomes.
The funds will be used to support the core activities of the Initiative, which include helping students launch and grow businesses in the social sector, matching alumni interested in board service with nonprofit organizations, and supporting student groups and career interests in the social sector.
The gift also will be used to fund faculty research and data collection, a major activity of the Initiative.
In recognition of the gift, the Chicago Booth business plan competition for social ventures has been renamed the John Edwardson Social New Venture Challenge.
Edwardson received an MBA from Booth in 1972. He is chairman of the Council on Chicago Booth and a member of the University's board of trustees.
"Generating understanding that improves human life is at the core of the University's mission," said Robert J. Zimmer, president of the University of Chicago. "John Edwardson's gift speaks to that core value in a very particular way, helping to support initiatives that simultaneously promote entrepreneurial innovation and social benefit."
"The Social Enterprise Initiative is uniquely Chicago," said Sunil Kumar, dean of Chicago Booth. "It builds on Chicago Booth's long-standing culture of rigorous analysis and our discipline-based approach to understanding organizations, markets and policy.
"John Edwardson's philanthropic leadership will help us integrate academic research on issues that are important to the social sector with educational activities. In turn, we can effectively study and help develop more effective organizations," Kumar said. "The social sector can benefit from proven market-oriented ideas and best practices from the for-profit sector."
Edwardson said the Social Enterprise Initiative is a natural outgrowth of the interests and approaches Chicago Booth students and alumni take to their work.
"I am delighted to support Booth's Social Enterprise Initiative," Edwardson said. "Booth students, faculty and alumni are engaging in a variety of ways in the social sector, from starting their own social ventures, to choosing a career in the impact economy, making a meaningful commitment to philanthropic and volunteer activities, and doing academic research."
Led by faculty co-directors Marianne Bertrand, the Chris P. Dialynas Distinguished Service Professor of Economics, and Robert Gertner, deputy dean of the Part-Time MBA programs and the Joel F. Gemunder Professor of Strategy and Finance, the Initiative brings together researchers with social sector interests from across the University's academic disciplines, including economics, finance, marketing and psychology.
Edwardson was chairman and chief executive of CDW from 2001 to 2011. He remained chairman until he retired in 2012. The company is a leading provider of technical products and services for business, government and education. Earlier in his career he was president of United Airlines, chief financial officer of Northwest Airlines, president of Burns International Services and executive vice president of Ameritech, now part of AT&T.
Edwardson received Booth's Distinguished Corporate Alumni Award in 2006, for his successful track record in business.
"There has been a big increase in student interest regarding how proven business practices can improve efficiency in the social sector and how businesses can think strategically about how they produce social good," said Gertner, faculty co-director of the Initiative. "The Initiative will support greater social impact through the education of leaders across the business landscape interested in social sector ideas and dedicated to applying rigorous thought and proven business practices."
"There is a shortage of rigorous research on the social sector as a whole, including its funding and incentive structure," said Bertrand, the other faculty co-director. "With the resources now made available to us by John's gift, our faculty can conduct research in these areas, and the conversation can go deeper."
Current and recent research on the social sector by Chicago Booth faculty includes field experiments on financial literacy and financial decision-making by the poor, studies on the impact of health and education reforms on development, and social psychology foundations of altruism and volunteerism. The Social Enterprise Initiative will host a conference on impact investing for academics and practitioners later this year.

Oliver Pan conveniently lost his mind
The former fund-raiser charged with scheming to funnel illegal campaign contributions to embattled city Comptroller John Liu has been sent to the nuthouse, further delaying his trial.
Xing Wu "Oliver" Pan is "involuntarily committed in connection with a mental-health condition" and undergoing treatment, Manhattan federal Judge Richard Sullivan said in court today.
Sullivan put off Pan's trial, which was supposed to be under way already, until April 15 — unless Pan is fit before then.
Sources have told The Post that Pan was locked up Friday over fears he was suicidal.
Defense lawyer Irwin Rochman said he would be ready for trial within a few day of Pan's release.

I hope the loony bin has a few extra rooms for the rest of this looney toons organization.
Toss em' in a padded room leave them to drool for a few weeks then try them, convict them, then send them up the river to Sing Sing.
Or just sing now and get it over with , Mr. Pan.

No one is giving any details about how they know Pan is going batty. Was there a suicide attempt or threat? Any previous history of mental illness? Or could this be a tactic to delay the trial until after primary day?
But hey, it will give the authorities more time to put the pressure on the campaign aides to rat out their boss or find the "smoking gun" that will incriminate Liu.
- Wednesday, February 06, 2013
The reason for the delay is that Pan's lawyer told the judge that Pan was suicidal. It will delay the trial but Pan will be convicted. The campaign already acknowledged that 10 Grand (at least) was gathered in violation of the law. That money was to be matched by non-criminal NY voters.
Of course the right answer is for John Liu to tell the truth, the WHOLE truth and nothing but the truth. However I don't see that ever happening.
Remember that John Liu's dad is a convicted bank thief. His father never admitted his evil crime and not only pled not guilty, he appealed his conviction to the end.* (His conviction was upheld because he was a guilty as sin.)
Later on John Liu complained that perhaps his political campaigns were the reason his father was convicted. This proves that this family has an evil within them. John is sad that his father was not able to get away with the crime. OF course it's also true that his dad faced 25 years for his crime but the conviction occurred just after John became ca City Councilor. The sentence for stealing a million dollars was one month in jail. John does not seem to appreciate how lucky his crook father is.
I'm told that John actually denied that his father was the President of the bank he robbed, stating that his dad was just a clerk. Well the President of a Bank is a documented position and his father was the President of the bank he robbed.
Clearly John Liu (who also lied about his mother) is not capable of telling the truth, so his staff will suffer.
John Liu will later complain that his political campaign is a reason his staff is in jail of hanging from a rope in the garage. He'll be right in a sense but not in a sense of decency.
Tell the truth John.
Tick.... tick...tick
* Sure, you're allowed to plead not-guilty, even when you are guilty as sin. You're also allowed to tell the truth and take your punishment like a man. One proves a sense of decency, one is the act of a scumbag.

The Taiwan to USA political campaign contribution pipeline is about to get crimped.
Gary Ackerman nodded out just in time before the feds got on his trail.
Who do you think got the first hook up to that money stream?
Our former Congressman, no doubt!

He's definitely pulling a Cecilia Chang!
Jimmy Meng; Cecila Chang; Jenny Wu; Oliver Pan...
turn out to be Taiwanese!
Why is that?
Now let the feds finish the job and tie cousins Tommy Huang and John Liu to the rest of this gang!

Last night, at the second of Bella Union's tenth anniversary shows at London's Royal Festival Hall, journalist and TV talking head Paul Morley commented on the label in question's status as a label you could trust. Between nonsensically antagonistic remarks about the value of his peers' critical prose, inexplicably dressed up as introductions for bands such as The Faraway Trail (oh whoops, Mr Morley), the man sometimes seen performing with his band Infantjoy raised an interesting topic for DiScussion: what labels, if any, are completely dependable? Who can you trust?
Bella Union certainly has an impressive record: from Lift To Experience and Dirty Three through to recent signings such as Midlake and The Kissaway Trail, the label founded by Simon Raymonde and Robin Guthrie in 1997 has rarely put a foot wrong. They've brought to domestic attentions the grandeur of Texan instrumental rockers Explosions In The Sky and ripped heartstrings from the chests of men old enough to have finally gotten over the whole death of Bambi's mother/Optimus Prime (delete as appropriate) thing with Devics. But what labels are rubbing shoulders with Bella Union in terms of quality and, most importantly, consistency?
In the UK right now, two labels seem to be ahead of the game: FatCat and 4AD. The recent output of both has been impeccable of late, with the former releasing material by the likes of Nina Nastasia, The Twilight Sad and No Age, and the latter responsible for albums by Blonde Redhead, Kristin Hersh, Beirut and TV On The Radio. (Wolf & Cub? Ah, they ain't so bad.) Wichita continues to impress and confuse in roughly equal measures, likewise Domino (Bonde Do Role? Come _on_), while in the States the likes of Jade Tree, Matador and Sub Pop continue to mix commercially accessible releases with recordings straight out of the leftfield.
But these are just the labels that spring to mind first – we want to know the labels _you _trust. Will you buy a release by a band you've never heard of simply because of the label they're on? Has a former favourite label of yours gone downhill in your estimation by releasing a certain something that didn't really sit pretty with your tastes? Are some labels simply too narrow-minded? While this can produce consistency it can also lead to complacency and, ultimately, unwanted pigeonholing. Are there new labels breaking through that you can see enjoying a widely publicised tenth anniversary a little down the line? Upset! The Rhythm, or Big Scary Monsters, or Jealous, or Brainlove, or even DiS…?

March Bank
|Begun in 1902, when H. F. du Pont was 22, March Bank is the oldest surviving garden area at Winterthur. Du Pont studied The Wild Garden (1904) and other writings by British horticulturists William Robinson and Gertrude Jekyll. Using these ideas, du Pont began naturalizing daffodils on the bank and by the 1940s had planted thousands of snowdrops, snowflakes, crocus, squills, and glory-of-the-snow.

VANCOUVER — Somewhere in Toronto, the tall foreheads of The Sports Network and Rogers Sportsnet wept silently into their respective beers Tuesday while another round of big-name transfers sapped what few talking points remained for Trade Deadline Day.
Bad enough that Pittsburgh GM Ray Shero had already upstaged the whole production by getting in early and often, fishing Sharks D Doug Murray and Stars forward Brenden Morrow and Flames captain Jarome Iginla out of the pond before anyone else had even untangled their lines.
Did Calgary's Jay Feaster and Dallas's Joe Nieuwendyk have to run up the white flag so far in advance? Could Boston's Peter Chiarelli and Vancouver's Mike Gillis not have waited 24 hours to pick the last of the aged meat from the bones of the Stars?
Do those two good Canadian boys, L.A.'s Darryl Sutter and San Jose's Doug Wilson, care nothing any more for the fate of the 70 or so talking heads in their homeland who will be trying to fill 10 hours of air time with something other than the sound of crickets Wednesday, while the clock ticks painfully toward the 3 p.m. EDT National Hockey League trade deadline?
Boston's Tuesday acquisition of Hall of Fame-bound superstar Jaromir Jagr and Vancouver's deal for diminutive centre Derek Roy, both from the Stars, and Sutter's snag of his former Flames stalwart Buffalo's Robyn Regehr, to bolster the Kings' blue line further depleted the pool of players who might have made the blanket TV coverage even a little bit lively.
Also gone, before the cameras even start to roll, were iron man D Jay Bouwmeester (from Calgary to St. Louis) and his former Flames teammate Jordan Leopold (Buffalo to St. Louis) and F Michal Handzus (San Jose to Chicago) — and Tuesday evening, the curiously much-coveted San Jose winger Ryane Clowe chose the New York Rangers over Vancouver, thus closing one avenue of the Canucks' endeavours.
In short, everyone has already been traded except Roberto Luongo, who spent his Tuesday attempting subliminal messages via Twitter, a series of icons ranging from sand running through an hourglass to an SOS signal to a telephone. All for naught. Nobody was calling.
Elsewhere, however, there was plenty of action.
"Well, there were some big names traded because of Calgary making a decision about where they were going, and Dallas (i.e., nowhere fast)," said Canucks GM Mike Gillis, acknowledging that Wednesday could be for housekeeping moves, at best.
"I don't know if there'll be much more activity once we get into (Wednesday). Maybe some minor-league stuff, but ... it's challenging because of the shortened schedule, and it's always challenging because you're making decisions that are borne out of a marketplace that has 29 other teams in it, and there's a tremendous amount of uncertainty. So when you want to go get a player in this kind of marketplace, you have to pay what the going rate is."
The going rate seems to be iffy prospects and second- and third-round draft picks, in bundles.
"There's been really high prices paid for players," Gillis said. "There's a lot of teams in the playoff race when you only have a 48-game schedule, it doesn't create the same opportunity to separate teams from one another. And you know, it's going to be a dogfight to get into the playoffs.
"You don't have three or four teams in each (conference) out of the playoff picture at this point, and if you look at games tonight: teams that are out of the playoffs today may be in the playoffs by tomorrow and making very different decisions."
The Canucks? One decision down, maybe two more to go. They could use a right-handed shooting defenceman and another winger, preferably with size, and, if it's not asking too much, hands.
Ironically, if that's the word, among the first questions to Gillis in a conference call Tuesday was whether, now that they had secured a much-needed centre, they might play Ryan Kesler on the wing when he returns in a week or two. Good Lord.
"That'll be a coach's decision," he said, but presumably Alain Vigneault hasn't been waiting all this time for centre-ice depth so that he can promptly toss it away by playing two of them together.
As for Clowe, the fact that San Jose actually would have been willing to trade him to a conference rival — Vancouver was the only other team in the bidding, by the end — is either a sign that the Sharks didn't consider him a force any more, or a sign of supreme confidence in their ability to beat the Canucks under whatever circumstances.
"No, I wasn't surprised," Gillis said. "I think Doug Wilson is a very pragmatic guy who is looking at his own hockey team first and foremost, and I don't think he had any fear in that regard. And it's a little more complicated, in that the player has expectations about a contract moving forward that needed to be addressed."
At any rate, if this is it for the Canucks, at least they have their centre, and in Roy — who, don't forget, was one of 25 forwards Hockey Canada invited to Calgary for the pre-2010 Olympic camp — they're getting a proven point producer and a decent two-way player with explosive qualities and good instincts.
Ideally, assistant GM Laurence Gilman said, he'd be 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds, but you can't have everything.
"He can take faceoffs, plays 20 minutes a game, he has been 30-goal scorer in NHL ... and aside from what he brings on ice, he will bring an emotional lift to our team," said Gilman. "We're a fertile team, but we've been depleted."
It also changes the focus on what the return might be, if they manage to deal Luongo, either now or later. What comes back might not have to be a centre, if the Canucks and Roy like each other enough to re-up in the summer.
And if this isn't the end of the dealing for the Canucks — Gilman said they'd love to add one or even two more players (though Clowe might have been one of them) — well, that's something left for the TV boys to talk about, anyway.

Working on LastPass.com for the last few months has given me the chance to ask quite a few people about their current password habits. It's been eye opening to hear just how many people use the same exact password for any application they use, completely not recognizing or not caring about the risk they're facing.
The people that do recognize the risk, typically 'tier' their passwords, making a strong password for the sites they care about the most, and a lower level password for ones they care about less.
Both of these are pretty flawed approaches because some companies are radically better at authenticating users than others. The most secure companies (like LastPass) use https (encrypted data passing), create a one way hash of your password client side (so your password never leaves your computer), and salt that hash against that for what they store.
Unfortunately, almost no companies are that careful. Many allow you to send your password over a non-encrypted channel to them, then store your exact password unencrypted in their databases. They will even send that password to you over email (which is also insecure), meaning that there's at least 6 distinct ways your password could fall into a nefarious person's hands for just that one site (sniffed over the network, taken by an employee at the company, sniffed over the network between the company and your email provider, sniffed over the network between the email provider and you, taken by an employee at your email provider, and stored unencrypted in your email client).
Handling passwords the right way isn't hard if you have password management software that will create and remember strong passwords for you.
