Mrs. Dalloway, which was published on 14 May 1925, is a Novel by Virginia Woolf, an English writer regarded as one of the greatest modernist literary figures of the twentieth century. The whole novel is the detailed and meticulous explanation of a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, but the innovative treatment of time and the different types of narrator have established this work as one of the reference modernist novels.
This is the story of a high class woman who lives in London with her husband Richard Dalloway and her daughter Elizabeth. The whole novel is a description of one only day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway. At the beginning, she is going around the city in the morning, getting ready to host a party that evening, and the history ends that same day together with the end of the party. Yet, as the narration goes on, different issues take place, just like the appearance of Peter Walsh, who was Clarissa's former boyfriend, and Sally Seton, her first true love who was also her best friends. These reunions make her wonder what would had happened if she has decided to marry the enigmatic and romantic Peter in except of the reliable Richard, and she also revives the feelings she had to Sally which seem not to be completely forgotten.
Together with Clarissa's history, we also find Septimus Warren Smiths case. He was a veteran of World War I suffering from physiological problems due to the death of her best friend Evans. He lives with her Italian-born wife Lucrezia, who takes care of him, but although she was always looking after him she couldn't avoid his suicide.
Clarissa's party in the evening is a success. It is attended by most of the characters she has met in the book, including people from her past. She hears about Septimus' suicide at the party and gradually comes to admire the act of this stranger, and makes her think about which is the sense of her live.
It is important to know that the main characteristic of the novel isn't what it happens but how it is narrated. Virginia decided to leave apart the external actions to dive into the inside world of every character, so most part of the work is just meditation and thinking of the protagonists. Hence, it is important to recognize the themes of the novel, as they are considered the essence of all Virginia Woolf's works.
There is a vast diversity of themes in the novel Mr. Dalloway, but some of them are much more important than others. The problems and themes analyzed in this novel are not particular issues like they used to be in the 19TH century novel, they are problems concerning the human being, common worries, and although she introduced them using a single character, she used them as a symbol of what she wanted to transmit. These are some of them:
Firstly, she speaks about the situation of women in the Victorian society. The idea of a woman in that time was based on the concept of a perfect lady to be shown to the society; the lady is only the one that goes with an important man. But Clarissa shows a different view of this issue, she doesn't think a women is nobody without a man, she knows that a woman can be successful for herself.
Secondly, we find the issues concerning death and suicide, and Septimus is considered the great symbol. This character thinks he is able to see a truth anyone else is able to appreciate, and it is such cruel that he ends up committing suicide. By this fact we can understand how difficult life was for the writer, and what her point of view of humanity and world was.
The third important theme is the time. This is an important issue due to the way in which it is used, changing the traditional notion of time as a chronologic structure based novel, intro a fragmentary novel with different techniques to show us which are the consequences of time in human life. The time and how the time changes a person were some of the obsessions of Virginia Woolf, and they are very important to understand the novel.
Overall, it is clear that Mrs. Dalloway is a highly representative novel, as it shows how Virginia Woolf lived and felt; like a woman born in a time that just didn't suit her.

About 100km north of Gondar lies the Simien Mountains National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with at least a dozen peaks over 4,000 m high, of which Ras Dashen at 4,620 m is the highest and the fourth highest in Africa.
Why visit Simien Mountains ?
There is a single dirt road that runs through the park, providing an easy way to see most of the park's key habitat in a short space of time. A more time consuming way to explore the park, but far more thorough and satisfying, is on foot on the many tracks used by local people to travel between the villages on the lower slopes or to reach the high pastures for grazing animals.
Trekking in the Simien Mountains presents one with some of the most dramatic scenery in Africa and the wildlife includes three of Ethiopia's endemic large mammals, the gelada baboon, the Ethopian wolf and the Walia ibex. There are also non-endemic mammals such as the klipspringer and bushbuck and cliff-nesting birds of prey such as the lammergeyer, Ruppell's griffon and Egyptian vultures can be seen soaring above the escarpments.


Not long ago my little girl taught me a valuable lesson. I should have learned it already because I have read this Bible verse dozens of times: "Do not take seriously all the words that are spoken (Ecclesiastes 7:21)." But certain lessons bloom late in the season; at least they bloom at all.
I tend to take life very seriously. I pride myself in being a diligent and conscientious person and I find a certain amount of security in keeping things orderly in my life. However, over the years I have learned that a chink in my armor is that often I take life and myself too seriously. Sometimes we grown-ups need to shed our propriety and civility and get a dose of the good medicine that comes from laughing. When we are under the pressures that life brings, it is all important that we allow a bit of frivolity into our lives. There's nothing like a nine-year-old in a barber shop to shake things up.
Rewind: After giving birth to three boys, my wife brought our little girl into the world. I remember the day well. We were pretty scared because it was a high-risk pregnancy fraught with difficulties. Because of the complications, there were fifteen medical personnel in the delivery room when the moment came. When Abbey was born, I was sure she was dead because she was purple and was not moving. But eventually things seemed to work out, and after some time in the NICU we took our daughter home.
The next years were difficult. Numbers help tell the story – thirteen surgeries, five thousand therapy appointments, and nine years of life on a feeding tube, to briefly summarize. One day early on she stopped speaking and making eye contact completely, which was a blow. The world of special needs and severe disability became the norm for our life. When I stop to think that we have put twenty thousand miles on our minivan making trips to the hospitals and clinics, I wonder how my wife and I have kept our sanity.
I will fast-forward through the bulk of our experience. People going through these things can find a new normal for their life and make adjustments. They go through stages of shock and grief and acceptance and hopefully resolve as the years mount up. These days we have seen tons of progress; my little girl functions in society in a way that is very different from typical kids, but I kind of love it.
To the barber shop. A few months ago I had a day off and we spent that day together. Against my better judgment, I dared to take her to the barber shop with me. The probability of public humiliation is always high for us, but I had her in tow and I needed a haircut, so I decided to risk it. The truth is, in our world, you just have to live your life and not care too much what people might think. What Solomon said.
As my hair was being trimmed, my daughter sat in the nearest empty chair, talking to everyone. She is incredibly smart, so after a few minutes she pretty much had control of the room, asking everyone around all sorts of random questions about their lives – their names, what kind of car they drive, and the like. Suddenly, the familiar song Free Fallin' played on the radio overhead. Her eyes opened all the way, a huge grin hijacked her face, and she yelled out "I LOVE TOM PETTY!" And for the rest of my haircut she sang along at the top of her lungs, to the amazement of all the patrons. Everyone was smiling. How does she know all the words to this song? How does she know who Tom Petty is? Why does she show no restraint?
We got out of there alive and I'm sure we were the talk of the room once we did. Fortunately, this was one of her more civil and cuter moments; it could have gone much worse, as autism is not very predictable by any means. But we smiled the whole way home and sang more Tom Petty pretty loud together as we rolled down the road. Unfetter joy was on autopilot in her unpretentious, impossible-to-fake-it brain.
I was getting there too. Who cares what people think? We're doing the best we can and it's broken but it's great. I can laugh at the mess and I can laugh in the mess. It's in these times that the remembering not to take ourselves too seriously keeps us going.

One of two new Daf Cf 330 Fan tankers .
We are pleased to announce the delivery of a further 2 tankers for our customer . This time they are on a Daf CF330 Fan chassis complete with rear steer axle, manual gearbox and air conditioning. They come fitted with a Magyar 20,000ltr tank with 5 compartments.


With its 524 hp (386 kW) 6,190 rpm and its peak torque of 637 Nm the Corvette C6 with Geiger SC 524 Kompressor engine is among the world's most powerful sports cars. And with a sprint time of 3.7 seconds from 0 – 100 km/h and a top speed of 201 mph (325 km/h) the sports car from Munich is also among the world's fastest street-legal cars of its kind.
The engine specialists of Europe's leading tuner of American cars have developed a supercharger conversion for the six-liter V8 engine of the Corvette C6 that is available in two different versions: The SC 524 specification costs 23,371 euros, including installation and precision calibration on the test bench. This price includes the Eaton screw-type supercharger which is driven via a cogged belt directly by the crankshaft. It comes with an integrated water-cooled intercooler.
The conversion further includes a more efficient air intake system with two sport air filters and a special throttle, a stainless-steel high-performance manifold, metal catalysts and the Geiger stainless-steel high-performance exhaust system with four large tailpipes. Newly programmed engine electronics coordinate the optimal interaction of all new performance components. Special ventilation holes in the newly designed hood provide improved airflow in the engine bay.
Geiger also takes the increased power output into consideration when it comes to aerodynamics, wheels, suspension and brakes.
The Geiger front apron was designed to be simply exchanged for the production bumper, thanks to its excellent precise fit and the retention of the original mounting points. The large oval-shaped air inlet provides ample supply of cooling air for radiator, oil cooler and the air conditioning system. The lateral openings are designed to optimize the flow of cooling air to the front brakes. The integrated front spoiler reduces aerodynamic lift on the front axle.
The Geiger rear apron was also designed to simply replace its production counterpart. Its upper end features a longer separation edge, which in combination with the diffuser integrated into the lower part reduces lift on the rear axle. In addition the Geiger rear apron lends the Corvette an even more striking rear appearance.
The Geiger sill edges are available in two versions with or without additional air ducts for improved cooling of the rear brakes.
The multi-piece Geiger chrome wheels in size 9.5Jx20 in front with 255/30 ZR 20 tires and in size 11Jx20 with 305/25 ZR 20 tires on the rear axle are as striking in appearance as they are beneficial for the car's handling characteristics. The set costs 6,999 euros.
Geiger furthermore offers various options for tuning the suspension of the new Corvette. The list of products ranges from a lowering kit that lowers the ride height of coupe or convertible by some 30 millimeters to a Geiger sport suspension with struts that replace the production transversal leaf springs for even more dynamic handling, to sport sway bars for front and rear axles.
To keep the enormous performance potential of the SC 524 Kompressor safely in check at all times Geiger offers two versions of a high-performance brake system for the C6 model. The front-axle system, available for 4,175 Euros, consists of vented and perforated 355 x 32-mm brake disks and four-piston aluminum fixed calipers.
Naturally Geiger also offers exclusive interiors for the Corvette C6: The list starts with carbon applications for dashboard, center console and door trim, and culminates in masterfully crafted fully leather interiors in any color and design imaginable.
GeigerCars offers customers a choice of either buying fully converted cars starting at 87,990 Euros or of converting their existing cars to Geiger specifications.

Great leaders are often made by the decisions and paths they embark upon when faced with circumstances that shape history. In Syria, US President Donald Trump's bold decision to strike the Bashar Assad regime has now brought him to the forefront of leadership on the global stage. The Assad regime made an egregious strategic error in attempting to test President Trump's mettle. Unlike his predecessor, Trump did not hedge or vacillate for weeks on end. Instead, he retaliated when Assad decided to launch — yet again — a chemical weapon that has the power to kill thousands with each bomb or missile.
Assad was not only testing Trump, but the very sanctity of the international order. Imagine if the non-attributable use of sarin gas became a normalized precedent. Hezbollah, North Korea and Iran's various terror proxies would have a pathway and incentive to use the odorless, colorless weapon of mass destruction without fear of any deterrence whatsoever.
The American cruise missiles that slammed into the Assad regime's Shayrat airbase, were more than a shot across the bow; they had a tangible impact militarily and psychologically against the Assad war-machine and his Iranian and Russian backers. Both Assad and his Iranian and Russian allies had grown accustomed to the freedom afforded to them by an Obama administration whose sole myopic concern was to negotiate a deal with the Iranian regime, regardless of the regional geopolitical costs or the human toll of genocide.
On April 6, for the first time in six years, thanks to Trump, there was a cold stop to Assad and Iran's actions in Syria. The Shayrat airbase was a facility of death — pure and simple. A massive sprawling airbase, it had a special chemical weapons production and storage facility. The base is strategically positioned and was a central logistics hub for Assad's warplanes. Ensuring that it is no longer operational will save thousands of lives.
Let us hope he takes full advantage of the momentum he has gained in Syria and finishes the job properly.
The total degradation of the Assad regime's air defense system and the inability of Russian military assets and air force to prevent US strikes also means that the prior fears expressed by the Obama administration were wholly unfounded. The sole repercussions of the missile strike seem to be a strongly worded statement by the Kremlin and the usual rhetoric from Tehran.
This is why Trump and the Pentagon planners should not hesitate in planning other direct strikes against major airbases in Syria. Assad must be hit again and again, until the use of sarin and VX gas becomes an impossible option.
Now that Trump has shown that he is willing and able to leverage force, the US should send a loud and clear message that the longer Assad refuses to abide by a UN-mandated blueprint for political transition under the Geneva Communique plan, the more direct military pressure there will be. Trump's executive decision in Syria is not a slippery slope to an open-ended military quagmire. The Assad regime has not had any proper incentive to halt its policy of systemic genocide and to abide by UN-supervised peace negotiations. But because of Trump, Assad's obstinate calculations could very well be altered and the path to negotiations opened in earnest. Washington's pundits, both on the left and right, who have been critical of Trump's decision are asking: What comes next? Americans are concerned that if additional military strikes lead to Assad's precipitous downfall that an even larger vacuum could arise in Syria.
With Trump at the helm, a lasting breakthrough to bring the Assad regime to the negotiating table is within reach. The strategic unpredictability of Trump and his willingness to leverage the might of the US military to show Assad that there are real and painful repercussions for genocide could be a pathway for stability or wider confrontation.
Former Obama administration officials have recently written bitterly on the degrading experience of having had to "beg" the Russians to allow for humanitarian concessions in Syria. Such weakness does not invite concessions or compromise by the opposing side. History has shown us that an American retreat only leads to further bloodshed. Neither Assad nor Ayatollah Khamenei nor Vladimir Putin respected the way of Obama. Assad's sarin gas slaughter was a direct product of the perception of US weakness.
Will further possible US unilateral strikes endanger the fight against Daesh and Al-Qaeda? The Kremlin would like us to think so; Moscow declared that it will no longer participate in airspace "deconfliction" with US military forces operating against Daesh in Syria. But this is likely to prove short lived at best.
We should not lose sight of the fact that Assad's use of sarin gas against civilians severely impacts the fight against extremists in Syria who seek to launch international terror attacks. Indeed, if Assad were serious about fighting Daesh, he would not have focused the overwhelming majority of his military assets in Shayrat airbase against the opposition-held province of Idlib.
The US does not need the Russians to fight Al-Qaeda, either. If Assad's forces are halted, the US can offer the necessary space for Sunni Arab forces on the ground and the necessary aircover to take the fight to Al-Qaeda.
The sight of children gassed to death by Assad moved Trump to action. But his decision to strike Assad was not simply an emotional one. Assad's unchecked evil and remarkable consistency in miscalculating demonstrates that Syria, the Middle East, and indeed the world, will be better off with him long gone.
Let us hope that Trump takes full advantage of the momentum he has gained in Syria and finishes the job properly.


President Muhammadu Buhari warned on Tuesday that persons who compromised building regulations and quality standards in country would be punished.
He said the increase in cases of building collapse was an indication of impunity by those responsible.
Buhari gave the warning in Abuja when the leadership of the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors visited him at the Presidential Villa.
The NIQS delegation was led by its President, Obafemi Onashile.
Buhari said, "The recent tragic incidents in Lagos and many others across the country, remind us of the need to strictly adhere to quality standards when it comes to construction projects.
He said his "change" agenda was still on course and he would ensure that all segments of society complied.
The President added, "As a government, we remain focused and committed to ensuring that we create an inclusive and diversified economy. This simply means national growth must impact on the silent majority.
"This is why in the past three years, we focused on key job-creating sectors such as agriculture and infrastructure development.
Onashile said they were at the Villa to congratulate Buhari on his re-election and to pledge the body's support for the policies of his administration.
He told the President that the construction industry could boost the economy if it was allowed to grow.
He appealed to the President to intervene by helping to remove some of the setbacks.


Twenty-eight teams entered the 2018 DII football championship with national title aspirations. After 15 weeks of football, just four teams remain.
The DII football championship is broken into four Super Regions with each portion of the bracket beginning with the seven teams. Three rounds of play determine each Super Region champion which moves on to the national semifinals. Three of the four teams that advanced — Valdosta State, Minnesota State and Notre Dame (OH) — were No. 1 seeds in their respective regions. The fourth — Ferris State — was the No. 2. All four teams enter Saturday undefeated.
Now, it's a whole new ball game. The four teams have been reseeded and are set to battle for a date in McKinney, Texas, for the championship game. We'll be bringing you live updates, scores and stats from both semifinals games on Saturday, Dec. 8. Here's everything you need to know about the national semifinals from the DII football championship.
All four teams are undefeated.
Valdosta State, the only team remaining in the hunt to have won a national championship, enters the tournament with the best scoring offense (53.5 points per game) in DII football. Versatile quarterback Rogan Wells leads the way with 3,248 combined yards and 43 total touchdowns.
Minnesota State, who is looking to get back to the championship game for the second time since 2014, entered the tournament undefeated for the second season in a row, having not lost a conference game since 2016. Nate Gunn leads the nation's 19th-best rushing attack with his second-straight 1,500-yard season.
Ferris State is led by quarterback Jayru Campbell, one of three Harlon Hill candidates remaining in the championship hunt. (Wells and Notre Dame (OH)'s Jaleel McLaughlin are the others.) This is the Bulldogs' second trip to the semifinals in the past three years, but they have yet to see a championship game.
Notre Dame (OH) are the newcomers to the semifinals, riding a program-best season on so many levels. Freshman running back Jaleel McLaughlin breaks his own records every time out, his 2,246 yards second to no other program in the history of DII football. The Falcons hope their 13th-best scoring defense can slow down Valdosta State and keep their dream season alive.


The video tutorial shows how I hold my thread/yarn in my hand. You don't have to hold it exactly like me or like a book says, to accomplish different tensions. You should hold the yarn/thread any way that is most comfortable for you. There are two ways to adjust tension.
Let the thread pass through your hand looser or tighter.
Use a larger or smaller crochet hook. This will adjust the outcome of your stitch size.
A good way to learn tension techniques is to practice, focusing on the hand you hold your thread. Let the thread pass looser through your hand making a few stitches. Then hold the thread tighter making a few stitches. You will see a big difference. Practice doing this a few times to get the feel for tension. Your tension never has to be the same and you can change it at any time.
You are welcome. When people are writing comments like that, they are most likely a beginner and frustrated. I can feel their frustration because I was in their shoes at one time being a beginner. A lot can be learned from comments, so I leave them up as long as they don't include cursing.
Hey, I've never crocheted anything before, but my aunt gave me a book full of crochet patterns for christmas, anyway long tory short I googled HELP WITH CROCHET!! and found your blog. Could you tell me which projects would be good for a beginner?
Thank you for writing. I am including the playlist for basic stitches and a stripe beanie cap video tutorial, made with single crochet. I have many more projects that I will suggest if you want to do something else. A lot of my instructions include a video tutorial. You will be able to find the video in the crochet instructions. On my youtube channel, you can find a link to the written instructions to the right of the video. Write any time you have questions or comments.
teresa...I love your videos. I just moved to Atlanta and all my crafty stuff is still in boxes. I just made my very first hat thanks to you and even felt brave enough to improvise and make some arm warmers. Thanks to your generosity I could be crafty this holiday with only some yarn and a crochet hook. I posted my success on my blog along with a couple links to you.
I don't have a YouTube account, but I wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying your tutorials! I decided to make scarves for everyone on my gift list for Christmas 2009 (and I'll include a hand written letter telling each person how much they mean to me, what I thought of them as I made the scarf, etc), and your tutorials have given me so many options for stitches I've never done before. I have crocheted since I was 10 (I'm 44 now), but I only knew very basic stitches. I was always envious of people who could do such pretty work...and now I am happy to be creating pretty things too! Thank you so much. It is so kind of you to make these tutorials and to be so helpful. You have made me very happy.
This is a good pattern for a beginner. It is a stripe beanie cap made with one stitch.
Granny squares are another good project for beginners.
You are welcome. Have a happy new year.
Thanks a lot, I actually made some squares! Lol :) now I'm gonna try the beanie, thanks!
Hi Teresa, First of all thanks n God bless for all ur lovely n informative clips, i hv learned a lot frm them. 2ndly,I hv a question, do u think u can show us the crochet version of "Baby Surprise Jacket " i found its written instructions at http://mrsfife.wordpress.com/ezs-baby-surprise-jacket-modified-for-crochet/ but to me its "French" as i cant understand it so well, can U pls help?
I just wanted to say that i have been following your utube video's and searched you on facebook so i could subscribe for the past couple weeks.
When I was first learning to crochet, I started to make panels of double crochet (they ended up being 105 rows long - 7 panels in total)I found that this was a great way to not only start a basic blanket but a great way to practice my tension. I found this was also great practice once I started the solid granny squares - they're all so uniform in size. Thanks for your video help!


Our latest Artist Series style circuit we present is the Sabotage based on a familiar circuit and rig but with a few tweaks. Controls are Gain, Presence, and Volume for different amounts of crunch and volume as you would expect from a Laney™ style rig and perhaps most importantly for tone shaping is the inclusion of the Range knob that provides an amazing diversity in tone.

Controls are Gain, Presence, and Volume for different amounts of crunch and volume as you would expect from a Laney™ style rig and perhaps most importantly for tone shaping is the inclusion of the Range knob that provides an amazing diversity in tone. The Range control is variable to match whatever range tone you seek (Classic Treble Boost, Treble w/ Mids, Full Range w/ Tight Bottom or Full Range Heavy Lows) making this pedal more than a one trick pony. Sabbath tones achieved at any volume or adjust the Range, Gain and Presence knobs for many other classic tones.


"Political Economy and the New Capitalism examines key developments in capitalist economies at the end of the twentieth century and brings together essays by leading economists in honour of the late Sam Aaronovitch, the veteran leftwing economist.
In his work, Sam Aaronovitch emphasized the need to take into account the most recent developments in capitalist economies. In this spirit the essays in this volume focus on key issues raised by contemporary trends, including: how the apparent triumph of capitalism reflects on Marxism, the role of the collapse of Communism in undermining the post-war Keynesian settlement, and the relevance of Keynesianism to contemporary capitalism.


The induction's pathway leads the participant in a hypnotic state through a typical day at this Un-stitution.

If one wished to rank the top individuals within the Central Plains, the chief of the Hall of Souls, Hun Mie Sheng, would take the top seat!
"Two draws in three battles. This has somewhat surprised this chief, but this will not be able to change the final result." The chief of the Hall of Souls was a thousand feet from Xiao Yan when he finally came to a slow stop. He lifted his head and looked at Xiao Yan. A faint smile appeared on his face. His aura was calm as he spoke. His expression did not change because of the current situation.
Xiao Yan's exchanged a glance with the chief of the Hall of Souls. A hidden flow surged and the temperature of the air seemed to have risen at this moment.
"We should leave room to retreat when doing anything. At times, we should not be overconfident when speaking. Hall chief should take care of himself." Xiao Yan softly replied.
"Ha ha, the Hall of Souls does not leave anyone alive when doing things. This way of speaking is only for mediocre individuals. If one worries about all this when trying to achieve big things, one would be a little petty…" The chief of the Hall of Souls loudly laughed as he quipped.
Everyone felt a little excited in their hearts after hearing this verbal sparring. This fight was the most important one today. One party was the chief of the Hall of Souls, and from a certain point of view, Xiao Yan could be considered the leader of the Sky Mansion Alliance. The battle between the two of them determine the victor and the loser of this battle!
"The clan has criticized me because of you. Back then, I gave the order to dispatch people to the Jia Ma Empire to capture Xiao Zhan. My thought was that we should eliminate everyone when making an attack, but this chief had undertaken a retreat to train when the order was issued. Some of my subordinates were a little lazy and only captured Xiao Zhan since i wasn't around. You managed to escape the many attempts to kill you after that first incident because they all underestimated you. Within a short decade or so, you have reached this level a step at a time…" The eyes of the chief of the Hall of Souls were somewhat complicated as he stared at Xiao Yan. This threat to the Hun clan was someone that they could have eliminated long ago, but due to many unforeseen reasons, they had ended up allowing this threat to grow at a terrifying speed. Now, this threat had reached a level where he could fight on even ground with the Hall of Souls!
If one were to toss aside this person's status as an enemy, the chief of the Hall of Souls felt an admiration for this person in his heart. He had to admit that if it had been him, he would have found it difficult to overcome this strenuous journey and reach the peak of this continent.
"This chief has an undeniable responsibility in allowing you to grow to this extent. Hence, this time around… I hope to remove that responsibility." The chief of the Hall of Souls smiled. His eyes roamed Xiao Yan, who had an impassive expression, as he slowly stated.
Xiao Yan's voice was soft, but everyone could hear the dense murderous intent contained within his words. He could not forget those many scattered incidents from back then even now. The Xiao clan had ended up breaking apart because of the Hun clan. His father had been captured and members of the clan had been killed. In the end, they were forced to leave their home and flee to spots around the Jia Ma Empire. At that time, he did not possess the strength to protect his clan. All he could do was set off with the burden of the blood feud. That journey had undertaken had honed his will. At the same time, his hatred for the Hall of Souls had grown.
Before the chief of the Hall of Souls could utter all that he wanted to say, a low sonic boom was swiftly picked up by his ear. Moreover, the space in front of him shook the moment the sonic boom sounded, A figure appeared in front of him in a ghost-like fashion. Both of his fingers were curled, and a pink fire seedling happily danced in an arc. The temperature of the world rose the moment the pink fire appeared.
The attack had arrived extremely quick. Even the calm chief of the Hall of Souls had a stunned expression flash across his eyes. In the next instant, the dark-black Dou Qi on the surface of his body had agglomerated like a conditional reflex. It swiftly turned into a black shield.
Both of Xiao Yan's fingers did not pause. They pressed against the shield, melting it with the dancing pink flame in an instant. After which, his fingers were like lightning as they headed toward the hall chief's eyes.
The chief of the Hall of Souls let out a cold snort when faced with Xiao Yan's vicious strike. His body did not move. He did not act to defend against Xiao Yan's finger. Instead, he slammed his palm toward Xiao Yan's chest. He was clearly intent on exchanging his eyes for the other party's eyes.
Xiao Yan laughed upon noticing the strike, but his hand did not halt. Instead, he lowered it and accurately pressed his fingers against the palm of the chief of the Hall of Souls. A pink flame flashed and the dense-black Dou Qi on the chief's palm quickly melted away.
The chief of the Hall of Souls had been injured the moment the fight began. Although it was not serious, it still appeared quite ugly.
Xiao Yan lifted his head. He glanced at the chief of the Hall of Souls, but he did not say anything. His hand seals began to change with lightning-like speed. After the hand seals had changed, a ten-thousand-foot-large spiritual illusory figure wrapped around the surface of his body.
Xiao Yan did not dare to underestimate such an opponent. He immediately unleashed his extremely powerful soul sonic wave attack the moment after his first strike.
The enormous illusory figure widened its mouth, and a terrifying spiritual wave smashed toward the chief of the Hall of Souls at a speed that exceeded the speed of light.
"Xiao Yan, other people might be afraid of your Yellow Spring Divine Anger, but this chief isn't afraid of it!" The chief of the Hall of Souls pulled back as black Dou Qi erupted from his body. The Dou Qi turned into an uncountable number of spiritual illusory figures in front of many stunned pairs of eyes. These illusory figures created a strange formation as they wrapped around him. Their faces were filled with devoted expressions as they knelt down. At the same time, their mouths emitted many spiritual sonic waves.
Countless of spiritual sonic waves gathered in front of the chief of the Hall of Souls before they transformed into a sharp arrow that shot out and violently collided with the Yellow Spiring Divine Anger's spiritual assault.
The sonic waves clashed and spread through the sky. The illusory spirits surrounding the chief of the Hall of Souls exploded one after another. Finally, all of them exploded until nothing remained, his body did not appear to suffer much damage since it had been protected.
Xiao Yan ended up frowning upon seeing his attack not do much. It was the first time he had witnessed a spiritual wave attack that could match the Yellow Spring Divine Anger. This chief of the Hall of Souls was indeed knowledgeable. Moreover, the hall chief's soul was also at the Perfect Heavenly State, equal to Xiao Yan's soul state. After this exchange, Xiao Yan had discovered that the strength of the chief of the Hall of Souls had actually reached the intermediate level of the five of the star Dou Sheng class. In other words, his strength had improved during these two years.
The chief of the Hall of Souls randomly broke the final sonic wave attack before he spoke.
Xiao Yan glanced at the Hall of Souls' chief but did not reply. He opened his mouth and a pink flame was spat out. Following the appearance of this pink flame, the trees around the mountain emitted 'puffs' and self-ignited in front of many startled eyes. After which, they turned into ashes as fierce flames raged.
"This is my first time using the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame to fight an opponent. Hopefully, you will not disappoint me." Xiao Yan lifted his head, looked at the grave-looking chief of the Hall of Souls, and spoke with a smile.
The chief of the Hall of Souls spoke in a faint voice. He observed Xiao Yan and the cluster of pink flames. The wisp of an extremely faint black flame suddenly flashed deep within his eyes. It clearly appeared extremely unusual.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes. He was vaguely able to detect a strange fluctuation being emitted from within Little Yi's body.

Q: Selecting area of image based on color (similar to GIMP/Photoshop's Magic Wand tool) I'm going through images and finding "buttons" based on their text. My thought process:

*

*Find the text in the image.

*Find the solid background color near that text.

*Using the background color from bullet 2, find all continuous pixels matching that color (similar to Photoshop's magic wand tool). This will be my box/button. I then need to store the top left and bottom right coordinates of that box.

So far, I can do bullets 1 and 2. Bullet 3 is eluding me. Any tips on how to accomplish a "magic wand" selection of pixels based on color?

Catching Up With Star Wars: The Old Republic
Posted By Mike on February 12, 2012
There aren't an over abundance of new TOR links for you this week, but the official site of Star Wars: The Old Republic did launch a new Friday Q&A series that you may find interesting. In last Friday's installment BioWare's Daniel Erickson and Gabe Amatangelo answered 15 fan-submitted questions. Below is an excerpt from Erickson which touches on a new Warzone for Update 1.2. Make sure to click here for the full read.
"We?ve been pleasantly surprised at how popular PvP is in The Old Republic and we?ve been doubling down on our efforts to bring exciting new content and systems to the PvP community. Right now there?s a new Warzone planned for Game Update 1.2 which we?re already testing internally and really enjoying. We can say it?s enabled for same faction vs. same faction play, so if you?ve been playing a lot of Huttball, expect some variety soon! Also coming in 1.2 is the pre-season of our Warzone ranking system, bringing better matchmaking which means better PvP. In the future expect a ton more PvP news as we expand and polish what has proven to be one of the most popular aspects of The Old Republic. We?ve got big plans."
NerdApproved.com points us right back to the SWTOR.com forums for a nice Old Republic lightsaber hilt line-up that you can view by clicking on the image above.
While Star Wars: The Old Republic had a fantastic late December launch, Kotaku reports that December was a very good month for World of Warcraft as well. Can't we all just get along?!?
And finally, it seems as though TOR now has a hip hop mix tape from Ritchie Branson. Click here but parents be advised of explicit lyrics.

Dude, where's my etymology?
by Stan Carey
Written by Stan Carey
'Take it easy, Dude,' Sam Elliott says to Jeff Bridges in a scene in The Big Lebowski. Dude is how Bridges' character in the film likes to be known ('that or His Dudeness, or Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing'); more commonly it's a synonym for man or buddy. In the 19th century, though, dude meant something more specific. I'll do the whole brevity thing to summarize how it arose and developed.
Dude started off as a word similar to dandy, referring mockingly to 'a man who cares a lot about his appearance and always wears fashionable clothes'. An early citation in the OED refers to 'highly perfumed town dudes wearing creased pants'. This led to the phrasal verb dude up, meaning to dress up or accessorize fashionably: a 1958 New Statesman article referred to 'country cousins duding up to impress less snappy dressers back home'. From this emerged sense 1a, 'a man from a city in the eastern U.S. or Canada who goes on vacation to a western ranch', which is connected to the phrase dude ranch.
Dude then broadened to refer more generally to a person, usually a man – a sense labelled 'mainly American' and 'very informal' by Macmillan Dictionary. In the 1960s it gained strongly positive connotations: a dude was a man who was cool or admirable in some way. More recently it became a term of address, my dudes, and then an interjection. Dude! These usages spread quickly through pop culture, including the Bill and Ted films, The Big Lebowski, and others. The film Dude, Where's My Car? played with their ambiguity.
For decades the origins of dude were a mystery, but recent scholarship points to a likely truth. In 2013, on the now defunct language blog Lingua Franca, Allan Metcalf – who wrote a book on the remarkable origins of OK – reported on etymological research that shows it is 'almost certain' that dude came from doodle, as in Yankee Doodle Dandy. He was the dude, you may remember, who stuck a feather in his cap in the traditional American song. The abbreviated spelling dood soon gave way to dude, which has been with us ever since.
'The Dude abides,' Jeff Bridges adds in that scene from The Big Lebowski, in an off-the-cuff remark that sums up his attitude to life. The Dude abides, and so does dude – though like every word it sometimes changes its clothes.

Tablets • 3 Mar 2014
We're still buying loads of tablets, but iOS isn't winning any more
By Nur Bremmen: Staff reporter
Read nextTechnology will help eradicate inequality says Bill Clinton [#SPC14]
There may be some truth to the notion that our love affair with tablets is over (or at least not as passionate as it once was), but that doesn't mean we're going to stop buying them any time soon.
According to tech research company Gartner, worldwide sales of tablets reached 195.4-million units in 2013, a 68% increase on 2012. While that's not the same kind of growth we've seen in previous years, it does show that the market isn't completely flooded.
As is to be expected, much of that growth came from emerging markets countries with low-end smaller screen tablets market aimed at first time buyers the real winners. Gartner analysts say that emerging markets recorded growth of 145% in 2013, while mature markets grew 31%.
The net result is that, as is the case in the smartphone market, Android is now the dominant tablet OS. According to Gartner, around 62% of tablets sold in 2013 run Google's mobile OS. That's a pretty significant increase from the 45.8% marketshare it laid claim to in 2012.
Android's success though means that the iPad no longer reigns supreme. In 2013, the share of Apple's iOS dropped 16.8 percentage points to 36%. Despite that decrease though, it doesn't seem likely that the Cupertino giant is about to disappear off the tablet map any time soon.
"Apple's tablets remain strong in the higher end of the market and, Apple's approach will continue to force vendors to compete with full ecosystem offerings, even in the smaller-screen market as the iPad mini sees a greater share", says Gartner research director Roberta Cozza.
While Microsoft's seems fairly entrenched in third place, it's not exactly killing it with just over two percent marketshare. "To compete, Microsoft needs to create compelling ecosystem proposition for consumers and developers across all mobile devices, as tablets and smartphones become key devices for delivering applications and services to users beyond the PC," says Cozza. Microsoft enjoys better shares in ultramobiles that are more productivity oriented, where its partners are ramping up new form factors and designs.
The hardware challenge
Gartner also reckons that traditional hardware-driven players such as Samsung and Apple will increasingly feel the squeeze from traditionally service-driven players entering the tablet space as well as aggressive prices from white-box vendors.
Those two are however pretty much entrenched as the top of the tablet pile. According to Gartner, Apple's strong fourth quarter helped it to maintain the top position in the market in 2013. Samsung, ranked number two, exhibited the highest growth of the worldwide tablet vendors, at 336%, in 2013.
The expansion and improvement of its Galaxy tablet portfolio, together with strong marketing and promotions, the research company says, helped Samsung shrink the gap with Apple. In line with its smartphone approach, Samsung's oversegmentation of its tablet portfolio helped it to offer a wider size and price choice but also helped it to test the market and find niches.
Among the vendors that have a less than six per cent share of the worldwide tablet market, Lenovo did particularly well in 2013 with tablet sales growing 198%.
"Lenovo's success is a combination of launching innovative new tablet models during the second half of 2013 and the sales of its Yoga model and Windows tablets doing particularly well," says Isabelle Durand, principal research analyst at Gartner.
"Moreover, Lenovo's strong R&D capabilities and its ability to react quickly to tablet market dynamics have helped it introduce innovative and a range of attractive products to the market. However, establishing a strong brand with consumers outside China, which is especially important in the tablet market, remains a key challenge."
Interestingly, Gartner's research also showed that tablets are still seriously outpacing hybrid devices (which try to mix the best features of tablets and laptops) and clamshells in the ultramobile market.
Worldwide sales of ultramobiles to end users reached 216-million units in 2013, an increase of 68% on 2012. The tablet remained the most popular device, accounting for 90% of overall sales of ultramobiles in 2013 — followed by the clamshell and the hybrid, with eight percent and two percent of sales, respectively.
Gartner does however expect the hybrid category to see serious growth in the near future.
"Although there were few models available last year, the hybrid form factor was the fastest growing category in 2013. Hybrid ultramobiles attracted users' attention because the keyboard offers better use of productivity applications and benefits from a tablet form factor," says Cozza. ASUS was the leader in the hybrid ultramobile segment in 2013, due to stronger sales of its Transformer Book T100.
Gartner expects replacement buyers to start upgrading to hybrid ultramobiles that will be introduced into the market from 2014, satisfying users who no longer want to deal with owning multiple devices or who want to keep up with the latest computing trend.
"There is an opportunity here for hybrid ultramobiles to marry the functionality of a PC and a tablet, and they will also prove to be an attractive alternative replacement product among businesses," Cozza adds.

Q: Hamiltonian And Non-Uniqueness In Quantum Mechanics In quantum mechanics, the Hamiltonian Operator is obtained by looking at the classical Hamiltonian and replacing $(x,p)$ with operators $(\hat x, \hat p)$ and for terms involving the product $xp$, the commutation relation is taken into account before replacing.
But classically the Hamiltonian is not unique, how does quantum mechanics take this into account, how can we be sure that we get the same result and equation in QM no matter which Hamiltonian we choose?

Stock market rally looks 'unsustainable' as S&P 500 introduces 'new lower valuation regime', warns Citi
This year's stock market rally has pushed the S&P 500 index to valuation levels that make it difficult for the index to rise much higher based on the current macroeconomic environment, according to Citigroup Inc.
The S&P 500's lagging price-to-earnings ratio is back to 18.2x, "perilously close to the high end of our fair value range," Citi analysts said in a Jan. 13 research report. S&P 500 trading range call for now."
U.S. stocks are up year-to-date this month, with the S&P 500 up 4.2% through Friday, when investors entered a three-day weekend in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.
traded 0.1% lower at around 3,994 at last check, according to data from FactSet.
"For now, we suspect that valuation may limit the upside momentum in the near term," the Citi analysts said. "Based on our fair value framework, valuations well above current levels are unsustainable unless there is a significant change in the macroeconomic backdrop."
According to Citi, the S&P 500 is entering "a new, lower valuation regime" compared to the period since the 2008 global financial crisis.
"This implies that index gains should be 'earned' in this new environment relative to short- and medium-term fundamental improvements, and less from macro tailwinds behind multiple reassessments caused by lower interest rates," the analysts wrote. .
Citi's fair value framework, according to the report, implies an S&P 500 P/E ratio of 18.5x at the upside based on current rates and other "macro inputs" such as inflation and growth.
"18-19x pushes real value boundaries unless we get a more aggressive slowdown in inflation, noticeably lower rates, coupled with other more optimistic macro readings," the analysts said.
The chart below shows the range of Citi's fair value for the S&P 500 versus the index's underlying P/E ratios since 2021.
CITI RESEARCH NOTE DATE JAN. 13, 2023
Referring to recent customer conversations, Citi analysts said there is "very little conviction that interest rates are on the verge of falling much further below current levels." That is "in line with the view that the Fed is unlikely to move from hawkish to dovish in a shorter period of time."
The Federal Reserve has quickly raised rates to combat high inflation, and many investors expect the Fed to potentially pause its rate hikes this year as the high cost of living in the US shows signs of easing.
When interest rates rose last year, the S&P 500 fell 19.4% in its worst performance since 2008.
"We remain confident in our continued view that interest rate-driven valuation headwinds may persist, implying greater importance to earnings trajectories," the Citi analysts said.
"Sell-side consensus seems to be merging around a weak story in the first half and a strong story in the second half," they wrote. "We're more constructive about the second half like many of our peers, but we're not seeing the same downward pressure on earnings and upside from valuations that others expect."
The analysts said "this could hamper upward momentum" based on their expectation that S&P 500 earnings per share will fall this year.
U.S. stocks saw mixed trading Tuesday afternoon as investors reviewed Goldman Sachs Group Inc's fourth-quarter earnings results.
and Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley M.S.,
which beat earnings expectations, outperformed the S&P 500 Tuesday afternoon with gains of more than 7%, according to data from FactSet, at last audit.

As for other major benchmarks in the US stock market, the tech-intensive Nasdaq Composite COMP,
rose 0.1% in Tuesday afternoon trading as the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA,
fell 1.1%, according to data from FactSet, at last check.
"We estimate that 28% of the current S&P 500 value is based on future earnings growth, which is in line with longer-term averages," the Citi analysts said. "We suspect earnings will be more resilient than feared."
While Citi's year-end target of 4,000 for the S&P 500 is below the strategist's average expectation, it estimates the index will see earnings per share of $216 "above those of peer companies," they wrote. "In other words, we expect a market multiple closer to 18x by the end of the year, versus others around 20x."

Liz Truss, whose full name is Mary Elizabeth Truss, is a politician in Britain. Liz Truss's net worth in 2022 is $10 million. Secretary is the job that Liz Truss has held since 2021. She works for the State for Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Affairs. Also, starting in 2019, Liz Truss has been working as the Minister for Women and Equalities.
Liz Truss has been a member of Parliament since 2010. (MP). In addition to that, she is a member of the Conservative Party. She works for the people of South West Norfolk. Also, if we look at where Liz Truss has worked in the Cabinet, we can see that she has worked for David Cameron, Boris Johnson, and Theresa May, among others.
Also, her goal right now is to become the Leader. She was going to be a Conservative Party member. Liz Truss had signed up to study at the Merton College in Oxford. The most interesting thing about her is that she used to lead the Oxford University Liberal Democrats as President.
Liz Truss graduated from college in 1996 and joined the Conservative Party the same year. Liz Truss also worked for Shell and Cable & Wireless in the past. She was also said to be the deputy director of Reform, which turned out to be a think tank with the same name.
The most interesting thing about the 2010 general election is that Liz Truss was elected to represent South West Norfolk. Liz Truss used to say that she was a backbencher, and she would also raise her voice to ask for reforms in different policy areas. If we look at the list, we can see that it has things like childcare, education, math, and the economy.
Liz Truss Wiki/Biography
As of 2022, Mary Elizabeth Truss is 47 years old. She was born on July 26, 1975. She grew up in Oxford, United Kingdom, and lived there for a long time. She was born in Britain and is a Christian. Liz Truss was born under the sign of Leo.
When Liz Truss was about four years old, she and her whole family had to move to Scotland. Liz Truss went to the West Primary School in Paisley, Renfrewshire, which is where the school is. Then, she went to the Roundhay School, which is in the Roundhay neighbourhood of Leeds. Liz Truss was overheard saying that Roundhay School was the only school that had "let down" its students.
But when her claims were checked against what was taught in school, it was found that they were not true and unfair. Some of Liz Truss's friends, who went to the same school as she did, didn't agree with her focus on social issues. Along with that, there was a journalist who disagreed with what was going on.
Liz Truss had also lived in Canada, but only for a year. It was said that she liked how organised the curriculum was in Canada and how friendly the people were. She said that the Canadians were really smart to be at the top of the class, which was different from what she had learned at Roundhay School. Liz Truss graduated from high school in 1996. She used to read books about philosophy, economics, and politics. She was accepted into Oxford's Merton College.

The message that a scientific approach should trump the all-out drilling of the fading shale boom is echoing through more corridors of the energy industry, and some executives say the slowdown provides a learning opportunity.
Oil producers may prefer aggressive drilling, but they've idled hundreds of rigs since oil prices fell to around $50 a barrel from more than $100 last summer.
Suppliers of the sand used in hydraulic fracturing say producers should use the lull as a chance to study mountains of oil field data on fracturing, the process in which water, sand and chemicals are pumped under pressure into dense shale formations. The high-pressure blast creates fissures in the rock, and the sand or similar material, called proppant, hold the cracks open so oil and gas can flow into a well.
Proppant suppliers say rapid-fire drilling — which shale producers used during the boom to keep output rising as wells depleted — can yield poor-quality, unproductive wells, as can hasty fracturing.
"There's a high failure rate because we don't do our homework," said Jim Venditto, vice president of technical services at Trican Well Service, a fracturing company that coats sand in material that makes it more buoyant and easier to pump into a well. He said producers have been talking more about finding ways to bolster well productivity, even as they send hundreds of drilling rigs to the sidelines.
Michael O'Neill, CEO of proppant provider Preferred Sands, says his company last year launched a free iPhone app called NavPort that tracks hundreds of thousands of wells in North America and provides data on aspects of fracturing jobs.
Oil field service giants Baker Hughes and Halliburton recently have put their weight behind efforts to better understand shale reservoirs and ways to extract their oil. They've advocated diagnosing old wells and stimulating them again through "refracking," a second round of fracturing. It's about a quarter as expensive as drilling a new well. In a few cases, it has led to significant production growth from aging wells.
The oil industry has refractured only 2 percent of the 50,000 wells that went through one round of fracturing in North America over the past few years. But O'Neill said the trend has grown substantially and is bound to keep expanding.
But putting theory into practice appears to be difficult amid low oil prices. Demand for fracturing sand is set to fall 14 percent this year, said Samir Nangia, a principal with PacWest Consulting Partners, part of energy information company IHS.
Some sand companies could get hit harder than others as oil companies seek out local sand to avoid the expense of transporting higher-quality proppant on rail cars, Nangia said.
There have been more converts to the notion — advanced by Texas oil companies EOG Resources and Pioneer Natural Resources — that pumping more sand into a well can bring up more oil. They generally pack in 20 percent more, a boon for proppant suppliers. But some producers have backed away from that as oil prices have fallen, largely because it's costly to add more pressure pumping, Nangia said.


Chesterfield winger Gboly Ariyibi is having a medical at Nottingham Forest after a deal was agreed, Sky sources understand.
It is understood the 22-year-old has been the subject of interest from a number of Championship clubs.
Sky Sports News HQ understands that Brentford had a number of offers rejected for the USA U23 international last summer.
Ariyibi has made 36 appearances for the struggling League One club already this season, and 95 appearances for Chesterfield overall, scoring five goals.
He signed for Chesterfield as a 19-year-old from Leeds United in 2014, having joined the Yorkshire side as a trainee from Southampton.
Ariyibi was born in Arlington Virginia and has four caps for USA's U23 side.


Miles Soloman, an A-level student at Tapton school in Sheffield, contacted scientists at NASA, telling them that radiation sensors on the ISS were recording false data.
LONDON: A 17-year-old schoolboy in the UK has pointed out an error in the data recorded by NASA on the International Space Station (ISS), earning him appreciation from the US space agency.
Soloman said it was "pretty cool" to email NASA, adding the correction was "appreciated" by the space agency, which invited him to help analyse the problem.
The research was part of a project which gives students across the UK the chance to work on data from ISS, looking for anomalies and patterns that might lead to further discoveries.
The detectors had recorded the radiation levels on the space station.
"I went straight to the bottom of the list and I went for the lowest bits of energy there were," Soloman was quoted as saying by BBC News.
"We were all discussing the data but he just suddenly perked up in one of the sessions and went 'why does it say there is -1 energy here?'" said Soloman's teacher and head of physics, James O'Neill.
What Soloman had noticed was that when nothing hit the detector, a negative reading was being recorded.
However, you cannot get negative energy. So Soloman and O'Neill contacted NASA.
NASA said it was aware of the error, but believed it was only happening once or twice a year. Soloman had found it was actually happening multiple times a day.


Join Charlottesville's newest improv group for their monthly show at The Bridge.
The WuProv Academy believes that emotion, reality and truth result in greater improv than any comical one-liner. Combining that commitment to truth with the martial arts philosophy of Bruce Lee and the structure, discipline and attitude of the Wu Tang Clan, The Academy has created a truly unique improv experience. Mixed in with laughter the audience will feel the sadness of a failed relationship, the wistfulness of a lost love and the unfiltered joy of a child playing in a garden.
Shows at The Bridge are pay what you can, with a suggested donation of $10. A portion of all ticket sales are donated to The Bridge to help keep the arts alive in Charlottesville.

So, I trust Keith 's wisdom about his own music, but am so puzzled why he chose not to release at least 1 or 2 more from Ripcord while he's working on new music. Am perplexed & disappointed he didn't think Truck would make it. I do love the Ripcord album, some songs more than others and I don't think they're all #1's, but I think he underestimated possibilities.. What do you think fellow fans?


Utilize Ad Groups With Keyword Themes – I can't tell you how many times I've seen one campaign with one ad group and one HUMUNGOUS list of unrelated keywords. The best practice is to gather similar keywords and keep them in one ad group. The reason for this is because you want to create relevancy for the end user. You want the keyword that they type into the search engine to be related to the ad they see and the landing page they navigate to after clicking the ad.
Testing – You don't want to create a PPC campaign and then just leave it there to "run its course." You need to diligently manage it to ensure you are getting qualified traffic to your site and not misspending your budget. There are so many things you can test with paid search but one of the first things to test is new keywords or even changing your keyword match types.
Add Negative Keywords – Review the actual keywords that are triggering your ads to show up. If they won't bring qualified traffic to your website, add those keywords as negative keywords, either at the campaign level or the ad group level. This basically means that if a user types in that particular keyword your ad will not show.
Integrate Adwords and Analytics – Relying on Adwords data alone to help you make decisions based on your keywords and overall PPC campaign could get you into a lot of trouble. Google Analytics (or another type of analytics) offers extremely valuable information about your website users and the way they engage with your site. You don't want to miss out on gaining these additional insights and reports so it's very important to link your Adwords and Analytics.
Add Sitelink Extensions – Not only can utilizing sitelink extensions give you more real estate on the search engine results page but you can also help users out by getting them to the page on your site that they are seeking quicker; with less clicks.
Use Landing Pages – Relevancy is so important on so many levels but mainly for the end user. For example, if they type in "red knit sweater" and see an ad for your site promoting red knit sweaters and click on that, they should end up on page showing red knit sweaters. However, if they landed on a page for blue jeans they're likely to bounce or have to spend time searching for what they want. Make it easy and seamless for a user to convert on your landing page once they get there by making their primary search and landing page experience relate to each other.
Target By Location – If you're a local business or only service a particular geographic region, be sure to add a target location in your campaign's settings. Think about it like this, if you're a hair salon in Atlanta you don't want to spend your PPC budget on someone who needs a cut and color in Topeka, Kansas.
Pause Underperforming Keywords – This one is a hard one for me because I like to believe that I have done enough keyword research to validate the keywords I bid on. However, only real data can prove or disprove theories, so if you're bidding on a keyword that is bringing tons of traffic to your website but that traffic just isn't converting, you need to reassess that keyword.
Assess Your Competitive Landscape – Whenever you enter a marketing space you assess where you stack up against your competitors. But one thing you may forget to do is to continue to assess the space. New competitors are entering the space or changing marketing methods and you, as a pay per click professional, needs to stay one step ahead. One of my favorite reports to look at in Adwords is the Auction Insights details. This report shows how you stack up against your competitors on things like impression share, ad positions, and top of page rate.
Track Conversions – No matter if you are an e-commerce selling products or a B2B working to generate leads you should always track how your PPC campaigns effect your business' bottom line. One easy way to do this, once your Adwords and Analytics are linked, is import your goal tracking to Adwords. This makes it easy to directly see conversions by keyword, ad group, and campaign.
