Out and About in Toronto
June 23, 2011 by Glenn 2 Comments
We talked about traveling in Canada and swapped stories about all the great places we had been. I don't know what I was thinking. Perhaps that she would write about leisurely drives through pastoral Canadian landscapes, or antique shops, or maple syrup. But no. Kelly's into the bright lights and culture of the big city. Big time. She's out, like, every night! So until I can rein her in, here are a couple of her latest adventures…
I was thrilled to watch kd lang as dusk descended in David Pecaut square in Toronto last week. The once cow-punk grrl from the prairies and now, at 48, a crooner of extraordinary range and style, dazzled during the city's Luminato Festival, Toronto's annual artistically-inspired week of concerts, theatre and art happenings.
In front of an adoring crowd Lang held nothing back, entertaining with a mix of humor, appreciation of her fans and full-on vocal power. At one point, before a song in which she plays banjo, she warned the audience not to be concerned at how much they would be drawn to the stage for the next song – it happens all the time! As a newcomer to kd lang's music, I was blown away by her powerful voice, enchanting melodic range and charismatic stage presence.
But even as someone who has never really paid much heed to kd and her music, I was surprised by the amount of songs I did know! Now, armed with an arsenal of tunes to download (Read: 'Summer Fling' and 'Constant Cravings'), I have difficulty expressing my wonderment watching (and discreetly videotaping) her chilling rendition of Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah'. Many strong responses were evoked by her emotional delivery of Cohen's haunting classic and I found myself watching and re-watching the video. kd continued the Canadian leg of the tour the next night in London, Ontario and will be performing sets in Montreal and Ottawa later this month.
Editor's note: kd lang hails from Consort, Alberta. It's a long way from L.A. where she lives now.
Main street, Consort, Alberta, 2008. Birthplace of kd lang.
Wow! What an event in downtown Toronto! The Much Music Video Awards were held on June 19th, 2011 at the City TV "legendary home of Much Music" building, and surprisingly enough, I got a ticket in!!
Lurking around backstage at the Much Music Video Awards in Toronto, 2011
Amazingly I managed to get right into the back stage pre-party where we walked in and immediately spotted The Black Keys . I am 99.9% certain that's who it was, though I must admit I am not terribly 'down' with what the bands kids are listening to look like in person. They were sprawled across a semi-circle white leather couch next to the sushi bar and it was my date that advised me not to lean over (as I was in the process of doing, to ask where the open-bar was, to get a glass of wine) as I could clearly see they were enjoying the cold white themselves. We spent some time in this pre-party room gazing out at all the kids on Queen Street West, who were frantically trying to peer in across the red carpet.
While strolling through our exit maze to leave the backstage area, my date decided to grab my hand and casually walk up the back steps onto the backstage of the MMVAs. In a classic situation of "don't ask permission just beg forgiveness", coupled with a dash of "if you look like you should be there no one will stop you", I found myself backstage. Literally. So moments later we were standing behind the huge light screen that screaming fans were facing, with Justin Bieber steps away, calling down to guys standing right next to us about who was on his shirt (from what I could tell it was a pic of his gf Selena Gomez). A great hooting and hollering erupted as we all watched Biebs saunter onto the stage. All we could hear backstage was the waving swell of screaming fans (they had lined up for days), the octaves rising and dissipating as various celebs entered and exited.
After that we waited around backstage, (me waiting for someone to tell us to scram, my date using Lady Gaga's stage prop as a stepping stool) when Justin swished by us again with gf on arm to their next appointed position. In the meantime we spotted Snoop Dogg and Fefe Dobson heading onto stage in a red and white classic car of some sort and I grabbed a pic of someone clearly important (as I wasn't the only one taking her pic) can anyone help out on this?
Please leave a comment if you can identify this mystery celeb at the Much Music Video Awards in Toronto, 2011

Access to User-Related Electronic Information at Dartmouth
This policy sets out guidelines and processes for Dartmouth's Access to User-Related Electronic Information stored in or transmitted through any Dartmouth System.
Adopted by: Council on Computing (2019-09-13)
This policy sets out guidelines and processes for Dartmouth's Access to User-Related Electronic Information stored in or transmitted through any Dartmouth System. This policy applies to:
All Dartmouth Systems;
All Users;
All Electronic Information from all units of Dartmouth, including the Geisel School of Medicine, the Tuck School of Business, the Thayer School of Engineering, and the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies.
To support its mission, Dartmouth provides access for its community members to technology, including software, computer-based services, and hardware. Members of the Dartmouth community rely on technology for teaching, research, study, performing day-to-day office functions needed to support the College's mission (such as record keeping and contracting), and other activities. In doing so, community members use electronic systems, networks, and devices that Dartmouth owns, provides, or administers. To promote trust within the Dartmouth community, Dartmouth shall be transparent about its policy regarding the circumstances in which it may access Electronic Information stored in or transmitted through such systems.
This document establishes a policy guiding the circumstances under which Dartmouth may access Users' Electronic Information. Dartmouth's goal is to maintain an environment in which free academic inquiry thrives. This policy establishes an internal framework governing Dartmouth's Access. It is not meant to create rights that would permit an individual to seek legal redress for actions taken that are inconsistent with this policy.
The principles that guide Access are given below. To the extent that Users wish to keep personal Electronic Information private from Dartmouth, Users are strongly encouraged to use non-Dartmouth resources.
3. Principles
The policy adheres to the following principles:
Access shall occur only for a Legitimate Institutional Need.
Access shall be limited to the minimum information necessary to satisfy the underlying Legitimate Institutional Need.
Accessed Electronic Information may only be shared with those who have a reasonable need to be involved.
All Access must be approved by appropriate Authorizing Officials.
To the extent permissible and practicable, notice of Access will be given in advance of, contemporaneously with, or after the fact. If notice is not given, Dartmouth will document in writing the Legitimate Institutional Need that precludes providing notice.
Access shall be subject to ongoing, independent oversight by a Dartmouth Oversight Committee.
Sufficient records shall be maintained to enable appropriate review of the Access and decisions associated with User notification.
Except for Passively Gathered Electronic Information, Dartmouth does not routinely monitor the content of information transmitted through or stored in Dartmouth Systems.
Definitions are given below, and are hyperlinked at their first appearance for ease of reference.
means the review, use, or disclosure of Electronic Information that is beyond incidental contact with Electronic Information, or the preservation of Electronic Information for possible subsequent review, use, or disclosure in accordance with this policy.
Authorizing Officials
consistent with Section 6, are high-level Dartmouth administrators tasked with exercising their best judgment when a request to Access Electronic Information arises. In deciding whether to approve Access, the Authorizing Official considers whether effective alternative means to obtain the information are reasonably and timely available.
It is the job of Authorizing Officials not only to authorize Access, but also to narrow the extent of Access to be limited to the minimum information necessary to accomplish the intended purpose and to decide if and when notification will be provided.
Dartmouth Systems
means all services, networks, and devices owned, provided, or administered by any unit of Dartmouth (e.g., email, Internet access, file servers, voice message services, storage devices and services, laptop and desktop computers, phones and other mobile devices, and usage and access logs).
is transmitted through or stored in Dartmouth Systems, and falls into two broad categories User-Related Electronic Information and Passively Gathered. It does not include (i) records maintained by Dartmouth in the ordinary course of business (e.g., personnel records, student academic records, or information provided by personnel in connection with regular Dartmouth record-keeping, such as entries in a Dartmouth travel registry) and (ii) Passively Gathered Electronic Information that is accessed without identifying or seeking to identify a particular User.
means Dartmouth's Information, Technology & Consulting unit.
Legitimate Institutional Need
means the standard required for Dartmouth to Access Electronic Information, with internal approval, and furthermore, to elect not to provide advance or contemporaneous notification, or provide any notification of Access; Section 5 contains a representative, but non-exhaustive list of such reasons for Access.
is defined in Section 11.
Passively Gathered Electronic Information
has many forms, but is generally data gathered by an automated process that is triggered by a User's activities involving Dartmouth Systems. Some examples include:
Geospatial data: The physical location of Users on campus is passively gathered by WIFI connections, card reader access to facilities/controlled spaces, and video cameras scattered across campus.
Login information to physical hardware and online systems, including the broad resources of Dartmouth's libraries.
Use of software or access to resources for which Dartmouth has a site license.
Email characteristics utilized for "spam" filtering.
Report Record
is defined in Section 8.
are current and former users of Dartmouth Systems, including (i) students; (ii) faculty, others holding academic appointments at Dartmouth, and staff; and (iii) contractors.
User-Related Electronic Information
consists of information created or processed by the User that resides on devices connected to Dartmouth Systems, including emails and attachments, voicemail, text messages, calendar files, data and document files, and any associated metadata. This definition includes files handled by an employee while performing the employee's job responsibilities (e.g., creating financial records, communicating with vendors for Dartmouth or colleagues at other institutions, etc.).
5. Examples of Reasons for Access
Below is a representative, but non-exhaustive list of circumstances that constitute Legitimate Institutional Needs. Dartmouth may Access User-Related Electronic Information only for a Legitimate Institutional Need, which must be documented in writing and which is subject to review by the Oversight Committee. In each case, the stated reasons for Access shall be considered in light of Dartmouth's values, such as academic freedom and the Dartmouth community's internal trust and confidence.
Exigent or Emergency Circumstances
There is a Legitimate Institutional Need when time is of the essence and Dartmouth needs to act immediately to protect against threats to the safety of the campus; harm to humans or animals; potential material breach of law or Dartmouth policy; or significant property loss or damage. In such cases, in addition to the officials specified in Section 6, the Provost, or the senior Dartmouth official in charge, may serve as Authorizing Official. If Dartmouth's Provost does not serve as the Authorizing Official, the matter shall be reported to the Provost's Office as promptly as possible after such authorization is granted. In such cases, the decision not to provide advance or contemporaneous notification will typically be justified.
System Protection, Maintenance, and Management
There is a Legitimate Institutional Need to engage in activities required to protect, maintain, and manage Dartmouth's Systems. This policy does not alter established ITC policies and procedures. ITC at Dartmouth is responsible for Dartmouth's computing infrastructure and architecture. It maintains the network (providing access both internal to the campus and gateways to Dartmouth's internet service providers), computer systems to support academic and administrative efforts, and access to controlled spaces. It scans all Dartmouth Systems to guard against various cyberattacks on such systems. This includes monitoring network traffic, login information to Dartmouth Systems, and backup systems, as well hardware supporting financial, academic, and research endeavors of Dartmouth. If Access to User-Related Electronic Information is needed, the decision to provide notification will depend on the specifics of the individual case.
Operational Circumstances
There is a Legitimate Institutional Need under circumstances in which (i) failure to Access the User-Related Electronic Information would likely cause Dartmouth to fail to meet mission-critical governance, administrative, teaching, or research obligations; or (ii) Access is needed in order to ensure continuity in business operations (e.g., Accessing the User-Related Electronic Information of a staff member who is unavailable owing to their absence (which could result from vacation, short-term disability leave, a Dartmouth business trip, etc.)). The decision to provide notification will depend on the specifics of the individual case.
Internal Investigations of Compliance, Fraud or Misconduct
There is a Legitimate Institutional Need when Dartmouth is conducting an internal investigation (e.g., financial fraud). The decision to provide notification will depend on the specifics of the individual case. This policy shall not be construed to restrict data access in the course of research misconduct allegations, which is governed by a separate policy.
There is a Legitimate Institutional Need arising from threatened or pending litigation, lawful demands for information from law enforcement officials (including search warrants), government investigations, and other legal processes. In such cases, notification may not be permissible or practicable. In these cases, Dartmouth's Office of General Counsel shall serve as the Authorizing Official.
6. Authorization of Access
If the User is a Dartmouth faculty member or other holder of an academic appointment at Dartmouth, then the Provost or the dean of the relevant Dartmouth school must authorize Access.
If the User is a Dartmouth employee who is not a faculty member, then:
Dartmouth's Chief Human Resources Officer, or such administrator's designee for the relevant school or unit, shall authorize access based on "Operational Circumstances," as described in Section 5.
The dean of the relevant Dartmouth school or the senior administrator for the relevant unit (or their designees) shall authorize Access for "Internal Investigations," or in other cases.
If the User is a student, the dean of the relevant school, or such dean's designee, shall authorize Access.
Under certain circumstances, it may not be possible to identify a particular User before a search of Electronic Information begins. For example, requests for logs of access to a Dartmouth facility (sometimes called card data) could determine who entered a facility at a particular time; a particular User cannot be identified at the outset because the goal of a search of the Electronic Information would be to ascertain the identities of the Users. Data requests like this may be considered "Exigent or Emergency Circumstances" or "Legal Proceedings," and be authorized as described above; if such requests do not fall into one of the latter categories, then the dean of the relevant school or a senior administrator from the relevant unit (or their designees) in the school or unit for which the requestor works must authorize the Access.
Authorization for Access to User-Related Electronic Information may be provided by the User.
7. Notification of Access
Reasonable efforts will be made to give notice in advance of Access, contemporaneous with Access, or as soon as possible after Access. Under certain circumstances, the Authorizing Official may decide not to give notice. All authorizations for Access will be documented. Such records may be reviewed by the Oversight Committee.
Individual notice is not required when Dartmouth is subject to legal constraints on its ability to give notice. The Office of General Counsel is responsible for determining that such constraints exist.
As determined by the Authorizing Official(s), notification may be given to the User's supervisor prior to Access of the User's Electronic Information.
8. Record of Access
Access to Electronic Information and the Legitimate Institutional Need that justifies such decisions shall be documented in writing. In all cases, Access should comply with applicable legal requirements. The records documenting Access, and decisions not to provide notification shall be reviewed by the Oversight Committee.
Both the Authorizing Officials as well as those who facilitate and provide Access to Electronic Information shall create a reasonable record of the authorization, which may include logs and other records in addition to the Report Record. The Report Record will include, where applicable:
A description of the Electronic Information Accessed;
A short description of the Legitimate Institutional Need;
The Authorizing Official(s);
Whether advance or contemporaneous notification was provided and the rationale for the decision that supports the Legitimate Institutional Need; and
If advance or contemporaneous notification was not provided, whether notification was provided after the fact and the rationale for the decision that supports the Legitimate Institutional Need.
9. Retention of Records
In all instances of Access under this policy, records adequate to permit effective review by the Oversight Committee shall be kept.
Electronic Information is subject to any and all applicable Dartmouth records management policies, procedures and retention schedules. Copies of Electronic Information Accessed pursuant to this policy for a Legitimate Institutional Need, and any other records created related to authorizing Access, or facilitating or providing Access, shall be retained for a period of time to be determined by Dartmouth's Records Management Policy Committee (or its designee) after they have been presented to, and reviewed by, the Oversight Committee.
Any records created during the course of authorizing Access, or facilitating or providing Access to Electronic Information shall be considered confidential, and fall under Level 3 of the DISC Data Security Level Definition. These records shall be retained by either the Dartmouth Chief Information Security Officer or College Records Manager.
Copies of the Accessed Electronic Information shall be retained as needed to effectuate the purposes of the Access.
10. Scope of Access
Accessed Electronic Information shall only be shared with those who have a reasonable need to be involved.
Dartmouth shall take reasonable measures, when practicable, to restrict the scope of Access to User Electronic Information that is related to the Dartmouth purpose in obtaining Access.
11. Oversight
The Provost, or the Provost's designee, will appoint an oversight body that will be composed of a group that includes faculty and senior administrators at Dartmouth. The Oversight Committee will meet to review cases of Access of Electronic Information, as well as to amend this existing policy and review its implementation as needed. The Oversight Committee shall make recommendations to the President and Provost as to the implementation of the policy and possible amendments to the policy. The Oversight Committee shall make periodic public reports on the implementation of this policy. In carrying out its responsibilities, the Oversight Committee may review the records described in Section 8, subject to redaction as necessary to protect individual Users.
References to Relevant Dartmouth Policies
This policy does not alter existing ITC policy regarding network security and monitoring. For more detail, refer to the document defining the Dartmouth Information Security Policy.
This policy does not alter Dartmouth's Research Misconduct Policy and Procedures.
Effectiveness of Policy, Amendments and Dispute Resolution
This Policy is effective as of September 13, 2019. This Policy may be revoked or amended by Dartmouth, in whole or in part, from time to time, via the Provost (or the Provost's designee), who is authorized to make revocations or amendments on behalf of Dartmouth, in consultation with the Council on Computing. Any such revocation or amendment shall become effective upon adoption by the Provost or the Provost's designee, or as of such other time as such person shall specify and will be reflected in the current version of the Policy posted within Dartmouth's ITC knowledge base policy archive. Questions or disputes regarding the application, interpretation or implementation of this Policy shall be resolved by the Provost or the Provost's designee; the decision of such person on the matter shall be binding on Dartmouth and all individuals subject to this Policy.

What can you get for less than �1 per week?
Well, a years adult membership of the VAC costs just �50 and provides excellent fishing on a range of venues, some of which are open all year. We believe that no club works harder to provide value to its members and we are heartened by the fact that last season saw a new record membership of 1178.
If you are not already a member, now's the best time to join - just click here for details.
The Verulam Angling Club are delighted to confirm an agreement with Tingrith Course Fishery near J12 of the M1 just north of Luton.
At no cost to the club, members on production of their VAC club card, can accrue a 'loyalty stamp' and after three paid visits to the venue, gain a fourth visit free of charge.
This approach will enable both the club and Tingrith to gauge what the take-up would be if we were to develop this relationship in future years.
For more details on Tingrith click here or go to the Tingrith website by clicking the banner above.
Plenty of carp in Riverside?
Riverside is a fantastic mixed fishery but there are some who don't think we have as many carp in there as we used to. Of course not every one shares this view, especially this young man (sorry, haven't got your name) who recorded over 100 carp from the water last season.
The fisheries committee are currently assessing the existing stocks. What do you think? Drop the webmaster an email with your comments by clicking here.

STS returns in June - Serious Talk. Seriously.
I'm putting the show on hiatus until June. That will be the month the show starts its fourth year. At this point, I'm working on some other projects that connect with my heart more than Serious Talk. Seriously. does at the moment. The main one, Graphic Novel Explorer's Club podcast, will be launching very soon. I'm making the podcast with two of my friends, Frances Preziosi and Dennis Supachana. It's a reading club centered graphic novels and comic books. It's been a lot of fun to record and I hope you'll check it out.
I'm working on getting The Anectodists going, too. Having listened to the episode I posted (Episode 136) in December 2016, I forgot how much fun that was and I want to bring it back. I think the show would work in front of an audience, so I'm working on finding a venue to record it at.
In addition to the other two shows, I'm recording and producing a new podcast for Comstock's Magazine called Action Items. The show will be hosted by Tre Borden with two guests discussing pertinent topics related to Sacramento and the surrounding area. It's been a long time coming and happy to say it should be available very soon.
The show will return in June, I promise. I have a little over a dozen episodes that haven't been posted yet and I want to give the folks I recorded a chance to be heard. I'm hoping that by then I'll have missed doing STS enough to want to get back at it. If not, I'll post those episodes no matter what.
Thank you for your understanding and I'll see you in June. These two will keep you company until then.

The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth Will Go On
by Calgary Stampede
Calgary Stampede's President and Chairman of the Board, Bob Thompson, joined Vern Kimball, CEO, in speaking to the media today to convey that this year's Stampede is definitely a go and is an effort in resiliency.
Bob Thompson, President and Chairman of the Board:
Good morning and thank you for coming. In 11 days from now, on July 5th, we will proudly open the gates to Stampede 101.
Over the past 4 days we have experienced the strong hand of Mother Nature, and the very best of our resilient and spirited community. Home is where the heart is, and our hearts go out to so many of those who have been affected by the floods, including members of our own Stampede family.
Throughout our entire history, we have never cancelled a show despite two Wars and the Great Depression. 2013 will be no exception.
We have witnessed families coming together, neighbors coming together, and communities coming together. Even as we are challenged with the clean up, we are looking forward to hosting our guests with a place to pause, join with friends and families, and celebrate community pride.
Like so many Albertans, I am pleased to see our Stampede volunteers in action around the province. They have been present at the city's emergency centres and we also hosted a breakfast for hundreds of military personnel and first responders in Canmore.
Having toured the Park and facilities extensively, I have witnessed our team working around the clock to put on the very best show under these challenging circumstances. We have pumped millions of gallons of water from our facilities, scraped the mud from our tarmac, and commenced the clean up of our Park to welcome our guests from around the world.
Last year, the theme of our centennial was "we are greatest together". A year later, this motto could not be more true. We are greatest together, and we will be hosting The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, come hell or high water.
I will now turn it over to our CEO, Vern Kimball.
Vern Kimball, CEO:
Thanks Bob. Like many people in southern Alberta, we've been pumping out flooded basements. We've also been pumping out the track and infield. We've pumped millions and millions of gallons of water.
We want all of those affected by flooding in Southern Alberta to have an opportunity to take a break from these difficult circumstances.We're doing whatever it takes to prepare for July 5.
We're in the midst of draining and drying all the buildings, removing damaged materials and replacing and restoring everything we can. The job of cleaning and restoring our other buildings and facilities, including the racetrack and infield, remains absolutely monumental. There's a ton of work to be done. Then we are going to run a concentrated version of Stampede set-up and infrastructure installation.
Our employees and volunteers have been awesome - some of whom have worked 36 or more hours straight to prevent damage to key infrastructure.And we have been humbled and overwhelmed by the unbelievable number of offers of help from the community to assist us in getting ready for Stampede 101.
Partners and sponsors have been instrumental in providing access to expertise, equipment, material and people: TransAlta, ENMAX, BMO, Bell, Cenovus, ATCO, Tervita, Burnco, Heritage Park, U of C and too many others to mention have offered to help. The Government of Alberta and the City of Calgary have reached out to us to help coordinate planning and resources. And, we've had offers of help from Edmonton to Toronto - even from places as far as Missouri, California and Texas.
We were temporarily overwhelmed by the force of nature. Now we are overwhelmed by those asking us how they can help to put on Stampede. We are extremely grateful.
We're going to have a great rodeo, exciting chuckwagon races, amazing entertainment and a midway full of fun at Stampede Park. Young people will hang out on the midway, families will create some fun memories, and visitors will see the resiliency of Calgarians first hand.
Stampede 101 will be a testament to the desire of the community to rally and to come together in the face of adversity.


It's a beauty of an early morning and we are going to be enjoying more fine sunny weather today along with mild conditions - perhaps temperatures of around 12C or even a little more in the valley.
Lots more of the same is still forecast over the coming week, getting a bit warmer still mid week.
Are those folks at Hakuba Iwatake posing for the webcam today?! Hi!
- Last day of the season today!
Last day for all the ski resorts open - see above.

Netclix Ends
October 18, 2019 October 18, 2019 Ryan	0 Comments	bojack horseman, china, Cool, disney, disney plus, dumb, dumbness, glow, house of cards, hulu, making a murderer, netflix, orange is the new black, south park, stranger things, streaming wars, stuffs, things, viacom, whatever, words
Just before summer, year of our lord, 2019, I kinda decleared that "Netclix" began. Netclix, being the word my soon to be five-year-old nephew uses to describe the major streaming service of the day. And. By "begin," I meant, "I'd begin to use the word, 'Netclix," in place of the streaming platform. Right?
And. I mean. As soon as that happened. It's become pretty god damned apparent that Netclix is… pretty much going to end. Right?
I mean. Disney is pulling all of its content from the service. NBC is remobiing the major sucxesses that have happened on Netclix. You know. Friends (for some reason0) and The Office (basically, the only sitcom that's ever been worth a shit). You know. Essentially, the two biggest "most watched" television series that Netclix has had to offer. THey're both going bye-bye. Right?
The Marvel-Netclix-verse is long gone now. Which. I mean. Daredevil with all of its awesomeness. Decided to make Kingpin a defacto Donald Trump character. So. Yeah. I'll never watch season three. THANKS CREATIVITY!
Netclix has already decided to end most of its major suxcessful original series. House of Cards died FAR before Kevin Spacey even had nightmares about being "me too'd." It was decided last year that Orange is the New Blaxk would have its final season releasing this past summer. About a month or so ago. THey announced that GLOW would produce its final season next year. And. THen.
Boom.
The mother of it all happened about a week ago.
BoJack Horseman. LEGITIMATELY. One of the MOST well-written shows on television (EVEN with all of its progressive bullshit), is having its final season. I mean. At LEAST they're prolonging it. So. HOORAY! (Do you get it, do you get the joke? Hooray is an ironic catch phrase from the show. Do you get it? I was being sarcastic when I said, "HOORAY!" Just like it's said in the show. Do you get it?)
So. I mean.
The World War III. Which is. You know. The Great Streaming Wars of the 2020's… the first casaulty has already happened. It's Netclix. Netclix has killed itself. YAY! Stranger Things! I guess. But. Legit. That's all the platform has going for it. Or.
DUNN DUNN DUNNNNNN…
Netclix is going to FURTHER prove the Steven Avery was ACTUALLY the murderer of… what's her name. That one time. NETCLIX is going to expose ALL OF THE ACCTUAL EVIDENCE THAT PROVES STEVEN COMMITTED THE MURDER. In their NEW series. Making Making a Murderer. Boom.
Subscriptions skyrocket!
But nah. Forreals.
Whoever gets the right to ALL of 90's Nickelodeon shows? They're going to hav a GIGANTIC advantage. I mean. I know that Hulu has Doug currently. But. I mean. Irf you get ALL OF 90'S Nick on ONE platform? You're GOING to have a leg-up on the millenials. You know the market that's VERY pro-streaming service. And in the spending market. Like I am. In theory. LOLz.
But yeah. Dude. At this point. Netclix doesn't even have SONY to fall back on. Venom should've been on there and stuffs. Right. Merhaps. Venom is a product of Starz? I dunno.
Netclix is dea.
They've got nothing. Outside of Making a Murderer and Stranger Things. They're going to die.
And it's going to be a quick, sudden, "OMFG~! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?!~!" Kina death.
Hulu, HBO/WB/DC the parent combany of all of those things is, eventually, going to be like, "Waitaminut. Why am I inflating the market? Lolz I believe in socialism and stuffs. So. I'll just make it one big collective." ANd merge the platforms. BEcause. I mean. THat's only common sense. It's gonna happen. Eventuially.
Disney's going to be like. "Alright, Hulu. I basically own you, already. So. Gimme all that shit. And hey, you've got contracts with like Viacom? And Comedy Central? and Fox? An other places? guess what? I own them all too! Boom!" And Jae will still praise Disney whilst also being a Bernie supporter.
As shitty and left-leaning as South Park has become over the years. This is one of the best moments in television history. Period.
But. I mean. Let's get real here.
Netclix. Already lost this great streaming war.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia was removed form their platform. And. I've never regained confidence in them since.
Without the backing from NBC and Disney? Yeah dude.
Netclix becomes MySpace. This time in 2021. Mark my words.

(Archived) Any Delicious users out there?
windows (Archived) Any Delicious users out there?
1. Do you have any strategies for integrating your Delicious and Evernote usage? If so, what?
2. Would you like to see an integration between the two services?
For those of you out there who are curious, Delicious is a social bookmarking site, some would say the original one, that is still huge although not as much in the limelight as it used to be.
Drive-by question. Did they get rid of polls from this forum or am I simply going blind?
In this case I believe you're indicating you would like to see the Web Clipper open source or support plug-ins, not the Evernote client.? Also, are you an Evernote Windows user?
What if it worked in the other direction? That is, every time you clipped a page using the Evernote web clipper, a bookmark was added to Delicious with the same Tags and Comment? That would be a much easier task to pull off.
I don't think are too many delicious users left.
I tried Googling "Delicious is dead" and came up with a lot of results.
But that could be old links driving that. My reason for asking is that I'm considering augmenting TagHunter with a module that would recommend new sites based on your Tag store as a fun way to explore the web. It would use Delicious as a source of sites to recommend via an Evernote/Delicious Tag comparison. I'm wondering if something like this would interest anyone besides myself. I find that I am frequently stuck in a rut (closed feedback loop) of visiting the same old sites so I'm looking to create tools that find new material that would be of interest to me. I am a StumbleUpon member but I think that something that has the additional benefit of being heavily guided by my Evernote Tags could be intriguing.
That could be an excellent idea! Especially if you are looking for possible niches in your area of interest. It might be most helpful if you could do it from the list view where you can select a group of tags to search the Internet on?
Are you saying you'd like me to add a feature that launches your favorite search engine with the tags you select in List View, just like it launches Evernote? That would be very simple to implement. Let me know.
The idea I was pursuing was more of a recommendation engine, like the way NetFlix recommends videos to you. The difference being that the software would periodically generate a list of new web sites for you to explore based on your tag set, instead of recommending videos (although I am toying around with an idea like that for recommending YouTube videos). It would use your tags to query Delicious and xref your tags against the tags others used to tag web links they bookmarked with Delicious. I find that I am very lazy when exploring new content on the web. By time the day ends I'm tired and instead of really exploring new sites in an energetic way, I usually chase a handful of old topics like a curmudgeon who keeps ordering the same meal at a restaurant because he's afraid that something new won't taste as good. If a program could do the curating and filtering work of finding extended topics that I am interested in by inspecting my Evernote tags, that would take most of the effort out of finding new web sites while concomitantly raising the probability I'll enjoy what the new offering. Pre-emptive comment: yes I know about StumbleUpon and I have an account. It's just not the same thing, at least from not my experience as a user.
Wow, after those analogies I'm really fighting the tendency to make several bad puns about Delicious and cuisine. I think I'll stop typing now, especially since I'm considering doing something for Evernote food along these lines too.
Now I need to go eat lunch ... given your comment about Delicious and cuisine!
That was a neat feature request FactMan. It's a natural extension to TagHunter because it completes the other end of the journey. We spend a lot of time using Tags to let us know how to find our Existing notes. Now we can use TagHunter to find new sites at the click of a button similar to the ones we already like and then clip those into Evernote too. It's kind of a nice Circle of Digital Life without the Lion King theme song.
Studies have shown that TagHunter is completely non-fattening.
Delicious is simple and is an example of 'Do one thing and do it well'. I have sought out alternatives from time to time over the years (Especially when Yahoo dropped the project in 2010), but I keep coming back to Delicious.
I integrate Delicious.com with my Evernote notes using the following recipe from IFTTT.com (If-This-Then-That). I was trying to figure out if I should choose Delicious or Evernote for bookmarks & web clipping, but then I realized that I could simply use both.
This handles any new links created from here into the future, but I haven't yet figured out out how to import all of my legacy bookmarks into Evernote Ntes.

By the midth century, slow and inadequate service, an inability technologically to cope with the mounting flood of mail, and the inequities of its pricing system became all too evident.
But the genesis of the act was in fact more complex: What clearly was within the regulatory province of the federal government was interstate commerce, and thus it is not surprising that the first major federal regulatory body should be the Interstate Commerce Commission ICCcreated in CE 87 Flamholtz, E.
Table 4 Number of Matsushita Electric employees — Year Number of employees Source: He found, consistently with existing literature about OLC, that in the fi rst phase of the project mostly informal modes are used, then in the second phase focus shifts to formal control and finally in the third phase both modes coexists and interact with each other.
The administrator is not a mere passive instrument. Company Creed In full awareness of our responsibilities as manufacturer, we will devote ourselves to the progress and development of society and the well-being of people, thereby contributing to the growth of human civilization.
This stage represents the development period of Matsuhita Electric in the years — Before the second decade of this century, there was no federal bureaucracy wielding substantial discretionary powers. It did not result simply from increased specialization, the growth of industry, or the imperialistic designs of the bureaus themselves.
Managing organisations through formal chain of command, by highly qualified and skilled managers leads to optimum utilisation of resources.
In case of Matsushita Electric this represents years from to during which previously established rules were formally written down and popu- larized through formal channels of communication and embodied in the form of new organi- zational structure, which forced managers to take more responsibility for their own actions.
Under normal conditions, the power position of a fully developed bureaucracy is always overtowering. The crucial test of their value is their behavior, and that can be judged only by applying economic and welfare criteria to the policies they produce. The Madisonian system is placed in temporary suspense: Bureaucracy separates public and private life, business from home, in all aspects.
Thirdly, since the study was an exploratory one, considerably more research is required to support and further develop the model. This issue requires more in-depth study - of Matsushita writing compared against the background of challenges that Matsushita and Panasonic faced at the time.
But the piecemeal delegation was not, as the continued growth of specialized promotional agencies attests. Japanese companies were known for their lifetime employment practices and stable internal labour markets.
They say that since there is a chain of command, there will be specific roles and tasks for people involved in the departments.
A scenario mentioned is one of a student applying for a loan. Who shall make the law, and what shall the law be. The First World War again witnessed a vast mobilization—nearly five million men in all—and again an almost complete demobilization after the war The Second World War involved over 16 million military personnel.
Knowledge of these rules can be viewed as expertise within the bureaucracy these allow for the management of society. The formation of the Department of Agriculture in was to become a model, for better or worse, for later political campaigns for government recognition.

Transcription analysis of the chlorovirus Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus-1
Giane M. Yanai, University of Nebraska at LincolnFollow
Fall 12-4-2009
A DISSERTATION Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Major: Biological Sciences; Under the Supervision of Professor James L. Van Etten
Lincoln, Nebraska: December, 2009
Copyright (c) 2009 Giane M. Yanai
Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus (PBCV-1), a member of the family Phycodnaviridae, is a large dsDNA, plaque-forming virus that infects the unicellular green alga Chlorella NC64A. The 331 kb PBCV-1 genome is predicted to encode 365 proteins and 11 tRNAs. To follow global transcription during PBCV-1 replication, a microarray containing 50-mer probes to the PBCV-1 365 protein-encoding genes (CDS) was constructed. Competitive hybridization experiments were conducted employing cDNAs from poly A-containing RNAs obtained from cells at seven time points after virus infection. The results led to the following conclusions: i) the PBCV-1 replication cycle is temporally programmed and regulated; ii) 360 (99%) of the arrayed PBCV-1 CDSs were expressed at some time in the virus life cycle in the laboratory; iii) 227 (62%) of the CDSs were expressed before virus DNA synthesis begins; iv) these 227 CDSs were grouped into two classes: 127 transcripts disappeared prior to initiation of virus DNA synthesis (considered early) and 100 transcripts were still detected after virus DNA synthesis begins (considered early/late); v) 133 (36%) of the CDSs were expressed after virus DNA synthesis begins (considered late); vi) expression of most late CDSs is inhibited by adding the DNA replication inhibitor, aphidicolin, prior to virus infection. This study provides the first comprehensive evaluation of virus gene expression during the PBCV-1 lifecycle.

Long distance road trips are nothing new to those who are familiar with the culture of travel within the United States, with legendary road trips such as Route 66 being so embedded in the culture that they are iconic. However, those who have a passion for off-road travel, particularly via motorcycle have often had to combine long stretches of driving on roads with brief stretches of off-road trails that really are the memorable parts of their journeys. The Trans-America Trail (TAT) was designed to solve that particular problem, with the aim of making an immersive off-road trail that doesn't require long stretches of road riding, while still having good access to facilities such as gas stations and accommodation.
The dream of a long-distance off-road trail is one that many people who enjoy motorcycling off-road had dreamed of for years, but it was passionate motorcyclist Sam Correro who really considered trying to make a cross-country trail that would provide such an epic journey. The magic of this trail is that it isn't really a new trail, but is a series of existing trails that have been linked together to make one long route. After thousands of miles of riding and many hours of researching maps and potential routes, the Trans-America Trail has been growing in popularity and the number of riders enjoying the route in the years since it was launched has increased year on year.
At nearly five thousand miles in length, there is no one set type of riding that you can expect, but one of the interesting features of the TAT is that every day does have some technical sections of riding and interesting scenery to enjoy. The majority of the days along the route are around two hundred miles in length, so most people will find that the entire route can take around four weeks, although it is perfectly possible to ride shorter sections of the route instead. The trail has been designed to have accommodation and gas stations within easy reach, and at a reasonable distance to allow most motorcycles to travel without needing a support vehicle.
Because the entire route spans almost the whole country, there is a huge variety in the type of scenery and sights that you will encounter, and from rolling hills to prairie and high mountains, the TAT has a little bit of everything. For those who enjoy mountain scenery and the kind of riding you encounter with elevation changes, then the section through the Rocky Mountains in Colorado is particularly dramatic and impressive. Passing through Utah, the route is almost at its most remote, with hours coming between meetings with other riders, with the rocky and dry hills with their steep cliffs being an amazing backdrop to this journey.
There is no doubt that the TAT provides an amazing riding experience, but one of the things that you do need to consider is whether or not your bike will be suitable for the rigors that the trail will place on the bike. A dual-sport bike is essential for this route, and while lighter bikes may be able to complete the trail, they may need support for carrying camping gear and equipment, while larger dual-sport bikes above around 600cc will have the grunt to handle the route unsupported carrying the equipment in panniers.
The range of the fuel tank does need to be over 160 miles, although some gas stations are closer together, while good reliability, suitable dirt tires and good skid-plates are essential.
It is important to understand that riding a long-distance trail such as this will be more grueling than just a one-day ride, so having a good level of fitness will help you to handle the challenges more effectively. Plenty of research through the maps and GPS is important to plan where you intend to stay, and where you can gain access to fuel, while it is also worth noting that an adaptability about the route may be necessary, particularly through the snowy passes in Colorado and in Oregon, where trails can become blocked by fallen trees.

Born on Ormlie Farm, Elizabeth Macdonald (née MacIntosh) reminisces about her happy childhood, schooldays, friendships and the fate of her pet hen.
Elizabeth distinctly recalls her father conversing with a neighbour, over the boundary fence, talking about something big coming to Caithness. They were indeed talking about the construction of the Dounreay Nuclear Power Station.
She talks about new pupils arriving in school, almost on a daily basis, as people came to work at Dounreay and settle in Thurso. Making friends with a new pupil at school has resulted in a life-long friendship.
As the owner of Elizabeth's shop in Thurso, she maps out the history of her business and how her interest in sewing was kindled at an early age.
Having spent time as a local councillor, Elizabeth reflects upon the constraints of funding within Local Government.
She also talks about the happy times spent in the Congregational Church, Thurso, now the United Reformed Church, enjoying the love and fellowship of parties, picnics and plays. She continues to work tirelessly for the church and its part in the Thurso community.

Q: Checking for "triplicates" strings in JavaScript array
trying to find the best way to check for triplicates values inside an array of strings.
I found many stackoverflow solutions for duplicates values which is not the case in here.
This is the farest i could get with solving this and I am not sure if it is the correct way:
const array = [
    "peace",
    "peace",
    "Vrede",
    "Patz",
    "Salam",
    "paz",
    "Salam",
    "Salam"
  ];

  const findTriplicates = (param) => {
    let counts = {};
    for (let i = 0; i < param.length; i++) {
      if (counts[param[i]]) {
        counts[param[i]] += 1;
      } else {
        counts[param[i]] = 1;
      }
    }
    for (let i in counts) {
      if (counts[i] === 3) {
        console.log(i + " exists " + counts[i] + " times.");
      }
    }
  };

  findTriplicates(array); // Salam exists 3 times.

please don't hesitate to fix my code or to post your solution.
thanks for your support in advance :)
Cheerz!

A: Your overall idea is good, using Hash Maps (js objects) is the best option for the task.
You can move your "=== 3" check to the first loop and have another object to save triplicates, it will be twice faster.

A: check this out
  const findTriplicates = (param) => {
  let values = [...new Set(param)];
  let triples = [];

  values.forEach(item=>{
    let counter = 0;
    param.forEach(s=>{
      if(s===item) counter++;
    })
    if(3==counter) triples.push(item);
  })

  return triples;
  };

A: There is no correct way to do things like this. You can always optimize or sacrifice performance for readability, but that is up to the developer.
I changed nothing about the functionality in findTriplicates, but the code is very different.
findTriplicates2 works a little different but is by no means superior

const array = [
  "peace",
  "peace",
  "Vrede",
  "Patz",
  "Salam",
  "paz",
  "Salam",
  "Salam"
];

const findTriplicates = (param) => {
  let counts = param.reduce((acc, p) => {
    acc[p] ? acc[p]++ : acc[p] = 1
    return acc;
  }, {})
  Object.keys(counts).forEach((key) => counts[key] === 3 &&
    console.log(`${key} exists 3 times.`)
  );
};

findTriplicates(array); // Salam exists 3 times.

const findTriplicates2 = (param) => {
  let triples = [...new Set(param)].reduce((acc, item) => {
    let counter = param.reduce((acc2, s) => {
      if (s === item) acc2++;
      return acc2;
    }, 0);
    if (3 == counter) acc.push(item);
    return acc;
  }, [])

  triples.forEach((triple) => console.log(`${triple} exists 3 times.`));
};

findTriplicates2(array); // Salam exists 3 times.

A: You create an object to keep count of how many times the string repeats and then iterate through each element in the array while updating the count in the object. Then you filter through that object for any values equal to 3.

const array = [
  'peace',
  'peace',
  'Vrede',
  'Patz',
  'Salam',
  'paz',
  'Salam',
  'Salam',
];

// Object to keep count of each word
const countObj = {};

// Iterate through the array to get the count for each word
array.forEach((element) => {
  // Does word exist in the count object? if so -> add 1 to its count, else -> add word and count 1 to the object
  countObj[element] ? (countObj[element] += 1) : (countObj[element] = 1);
});

// Filter out keys that appear exactly 3 times and print them them
const filteredArray = Object.keys(countObj).filter(
  (key) => countObj[key] === 3
);

console.log(filteredArray); // Salam

Showing results for tags 'engine throttle issue'.
So my throttle body is clean, my connector and connections are good. But when at a light it stumbles for a split second once out of 3 times. So it doesn't always do it. Pulled the plugs and even replaced them with iridium which were in there to begin with. Good color, not lean or rich. Replaced the wires and still the same result. I am getting ready to purchase a Tech 2 just for this truck for diagnostic and programming purposes. But it will be a couple weeks out before the guy comes back from vaca to seal the deal so I can fully dig in. There is no hiccups otherwise, full throttle to hitting it. Just when I come up to a light and idle for a little bit. It does not feel like a misfire, it's more like split skip and it's 100% on. Any ideas?

NJ- Newark archbishop's deposition to be released
Tomorrow in Newark, parents of a child sex abuse victim will
-- announce a settlement of a child sexual abuse and cover up case involving a priest,
-- release a deposition of Newark Archbishop John Myers and
-- release long-hidden church records about a predator priest.
We are very proud of Andrew Ward and his brave and compassionate family. We are especially grateful they had the strength to take legal action, the persistence to overcome the church hierarchy's seemingly endless delays. And we are glad they insisted that these records be disclosed. In child sex abuse and cover up cases, it's crucial that the dreadful wrongdoing of both those who commit and those who conceal these heinous crimes are exposed. That's the best way to prevent future child sex crimes and cover ups.
When clergy sex abuse and cover up cases settle for seven figures, the reason is simple. It's almost always because Catholic officials ignored, minimized, hid and enabled horrific crimes against children and those officials fear these damaging facts will emerge in court. That's why bishops are willing to pay large figures – to save themselves and their colleagues from having to answer tough questions, under oath, in open court, where their complicity will be laid bare for all to see.
We are anxious to see these records. We suspect they'll show Myers acting as selfishly and irresponsibly in Peoria as he is acting in Newark. We also suspect there are other current and former Peoria church employees who played a role in keeping Msgr. Maloney's crimes secret for years.
The predator, Msgr. Maloney, is deceased, so he can't be prosecuted. But we hope that those who saw or suspected Maloney's crimes or Myers' cover ups and helped hide the truth might be prosecuted.
So we urge anyone with information or suspicions about clergy sex crimes and cover ups – in Peoria or Newark – to find the courage to do what Andrew and his family did – seek justice in the time-tested US court system, rather than quietly calling corrupt Catholic officials and giving them a chance to intimidate victims, threaten whistleblowers, discredit witnesses, fabricate alibis, destroy evidence, or help pedophile priests flee overseas.

A Call to Bernie Sanders and Cornel West on Reparations: "Black People Can't Wait!"
And Water Is Wet: Study Shows Whites From Former Slave States More Likely to Be Biased Against Blacks
Netanyahu's wife went to the Trump groom
March 10, 2018 March 10, 2018 BLMNews 0 Comment
American media announce the efforts of Sarah Netanyahu, wife of the Zionist regime's prime minister for American citizenship.
According to the report, during a visit by Netanyahu and his wife to the United States, Sara Netanyahu has asked the president of the United States, Trump, to take his American citizenship for him and his wife. Netanyahu's wife's insistence is due to concerns about his arrest and Beniamin Netanyahu's being detained now because of his involvement in corruption cases. Meanwhile, the Zionist community is very dissatisfied with the plight of the Palestinians because of the same corruption and numerous failures of Israel on the front lines of the resistance. Netanyahu's attempt to capture economic and identity crises inside the outside borders of the occupied territories, including an attack on Syria, could not cover its corruption and disability.
Of course, Kouchner, a Jew who is referred to as the Zionist and Trump interlocutor, has said that he should raise this issue with Trump. But this request appears to be a negative reaction to Trump or at least his advisers.
Especially that these days, Kouchner's relationship with Trump is cold, as long as Kouchner and Ivanka Trump are even supposed to leave the White House. Many analysts also believe that Kouchner has played a role in the decision of Trump to move the US capital from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and on the other hand Kouchner's interventions have greatly reduced the chances of Trump to win the presidential election in the United States.
Benjamin Netanyahu has been questioned for a long time on charges of corruption, receiving bribes and fraud, and the most important cases of his corruption are two cases of 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000, which the Zionist police announced from the end of the investigation of the 1000 case, and emphasized that the month Future results of the investigation will be presented to the Attorney General's Office.
The case of "1000" for foreign bribes and illegal donations, "2000" case for abuse of power and payment of bribes to "Yediyot Aharwonot" for special protection and coverage, and file "3000" for submarine purchases Nuclear is from Germany, in which Netanyahu is the main party in all of them.

UKSE Invests £400,000 into South Yorkshire Manufacturer
A Sheffield based company that designs, manufactures and installs architectural metalwork products for the construction industry has secured a £400,000 investment from UK Steel Enterprise (UKSE).

Introduced to UK Steel Enterprise by Patrick Abel of Hart Shaw, Architectural Fabrications Ltd (AFL) is a supplier of architectural metalwork to the construction industry.

The company has had to take on more space and recruit more staff to cope with the growth, and the new investment – which comes from the UK Steel Enterprise Equity Growth Fund – is giving them the firepower to bid for bigger contracts and put them on track for further growth in 2017.
Employing 44, the business has already started recruiting some of the 14 additional new jobs that the company is planning to create in South Yorkshire over the next three years.
Chris Hadfield, Architectural Fabrications Managing Director, said: "The investment from UK Steel Enterprise has been vital in allowing us to make a strong move forward. Our expansion project means that we can be more competitive, create jobs and ultimately scale-up the contracts that we go after."
Keith Williams, Regional Manager for UK Steel Enterprise which invests in growing companies, commented: "Architectural Fabrications has plenty of opportunities to grow and create jobs, but it reached a point where it needed to expand its capacity and financial strength to make that happen. Our investment will help the company through this pivotal growth phase, providing the working capital to enable them to take on new customers and bigger contracts."

Robert Pattinson and Nettie Wakefield Dating: Rob Staying In London For His New Girlfriend?
BY Yellow J on January 10, 2014 | Comments: 5 comments
Related : Celebrity Couple, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson
Although Robert Pattinson was in New York City around New Year's time, it seems he jetted back to London right after. Was it to see Nettie Wakefield his artist girlfriend? He was spotted out to dinner with his sister around January 8th, begging the question: what exactly is he still doing there? Ostensibly, everyone assumed that right after the holidays, he would head to set to work on his new movie. Most films in production that took a break for the holidays have started shooting again, so unless the start date was later, it's strange that Rob's still in London. Even if the film hasn't started shooting, there's still the question of whether Rob wants to move back to London. He was in Los Angeles for a very long time, largely because of relationship with Kristen Stewart and because his career needed it.
Now that he's a brand name, following the success of Twilight, he can live everywhere and still get the same opportunities. Of course, there's also the fact that he's rumored to be dating artist Nettie Wakefield, who also happens to live in London. Coincidence? If they're actually dating, me thinks not.
Nettie and Rob have reportedly known each other for years through mutual friend Tom Sturridge, and the Sun's recent report claimed that Rob and Nettie were being incredibly 'touchy-feely' at an event. Their source explained that Rob was playing with Nettie's hair throughout the evening, and that both of them seemed really into each other. So into each other that Rob's staying a few extra days to spend more time with her? Sure, E! Online has already stepped in to state that Rob and Nettie are just 'good friends', but do good friends tease each other's hair and flirt and giggle?
What do you guys think? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Technological innovations and the dawn of technology has given online marketers and businesses alike the chance to market products and services more efficiently and cost-effectively. These days, digital marketing is standard all over the world. Without incorporating such in the marketing campaigns, enterprises surely miss something big. Digital marketing generally provides businesses with a plethora of advantage, and when done right, can give them an edge over the competition. For companies and marketers who will be advertising online for the first time, or for those looking for innovative ways to market their business online, below is a list you may want to consider.
This strategy is not new anymore and has already proven its value in terms of attaining marketing success. The purpose of SEO is primarily to help your visitors find your website easily. SEO specialists use a plethora of strategies so your site will be recognized by search engines (especially Google) and ranked in the top of the Search Engine Results Page (SERPs). Therefore, when a potential customer or client search for the same service or product that you sell, they will find yours despite thousands of websites online offering similar products or services.
Advertisers probably rejoice when social media was created. According to statistics, Facebook has more than 2.27 billion monthly active users, making it the leading social media platform followed by YouTube with 1.8 billion users per month as of 2018. Instagram, on the other hand, ranked 6th with 1 billion active monthly users while Twitter ranked 11th with 335 million active users per month. With such huge figures, social media platforms undeniably are an excellent place to widen the reach of your business. When done right, social media marketing can generate a massive ROI (return on investment).
This one is among the most popular paid advertising methods and strategies that marketers can use. As the name implies, advertisers need to spend a particular fee every time their advertisement is clicked. There are different kinds of PPC ads, but the most popular one is the paid search ads (mainly Google AdWords) by which advertisements appear when an online user search for a particular keyword using search engines. The process is not as simple as paying a certain fee. To make sure that your ad appears on the search engine results Page when an online user search for a specific product or service that you offer, you need to join the Ad Auction, an automated process that major search engines utilize to determine the validity and relevance of the ads displayed.
There are websites or platforms specifically designed to help marketers and businesses in advertising their product or service. One of which is the Click2sell platform. This platform enables brands, agencies, network affiliates, and other professionals to run, manage, and track their digital marketing campaigns effectively. Overall, there are many ways to market your products or services online, and those mentioned above are just some of those. No two advertising strategies work the same, so to maximize the benefits each one brings it is essential to determine your business marketing needs and find which business approach suits it best.

Star Trek 3: Simon Pegg Is Writing It Too!
by Joel D Amos at January 22, 2015 11:40 am . Updated at January 22, 2015 4:04 pm . Comments
The casting of Simon Pegg as Scotty could not have been more perfect by Star Trek director J.J. Abrams. Turns out, it was a good move for another reason as well. News arises today that Pegg has been tapped to write the screenplay for Star Trek 3, along with writing partner Doug Jung.
This news arrives after we heard that Robert Orci was leaving the project. Orci was originally slated to write and make his directorial debut after Abrams went off to make his Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Pegg is not only a huge Star Trek fan, but he is also quite the screenwriter. His work can be seen as co-writer (with Edgar Wright) of The World's End, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Paul.
More on this as the story arises. Star Trek 3 is set to land July 8, 2016 to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Until then, see how it all got started and watch Star Trek online.
Pegg can be most recently seen in a truly astounding film that has to be seen, Hector and the Search for Happiness -- one of our top 15 of 2014.
Star Trek is just one of the franchises we adore... click through the slideshow below and discover more!
