Antigua and My Life Before
Josefa Ferrer, a famous Chilean singer and star, awakens one morning to read in the Santiago newspaper that her best friend, Violeta, has been involved in a brutal act of violence. Overwhelmed with regret and plagued with guilt for not having foreseen the tragedy, Josefa feels compelled to tell Violeta's life story--one marked by lost ideals, disillusionment, and grief--which is ultimately Josefa's story, too. Through the interwoven lives of these two women, Marcela Serrano explores how the demands of a woman's role as mother, wife, lover, and friend are frequently at odds with her own dreams and aspirations, and how easily the fragile bonds of friendship and family can be strained to the breaking point. For Josefa and Violeta, it is only in Antigua, under the watchful eyes of "the others"--a chorus of female ancestral spirits who testify to the women's defining moments of strength and courage--that Josefa and Violeta will discover that even in the aftermath of violence and betrayal they have control over their destinies and their redemption.
Exquisitely crafted and written in beautiful, lyrical prose, Marcela Serrano's unforgettable novel about friendship, forgiveness, and second chances speaks to every woman who has experienced the wrenching divide between professional ambition and family responsibility, who has been torn between the excitement of illicit passion and the security of marriage, who has craved the thrill of success while yearning for solitude in an often chaotic, invasive world.

Nine county organizations receive money to positively impact area
Jessica Ricks July 10, 2019 0 0
MOUNT RAINIER — MJ Park has always been passionate about world peace.
As a teacher and mother of six with her husband working as a social worker and hospice nurse, they found that they had a shared dream for peace and nonviolence. Because of their shared vision, they founded Little Friends For Peace 38 years ago.
"We did protests about what we were against, but one day my dad said 'What are you for?' and I said 'You're right,' so we wanted to start an organization that teaches peace," Park said.

With Little Friends For Peace, Park and her husband have held peace camps, where she taught about peace in schools, and advocate for a peaceful community.
After wanting to do more and gaining the attention of the city of Mount Rainier where they have lived for the last 30 years, they were approached by City Councilmember Shavali Shah to apply for a grant so they could build a peace park in the city.
Little Friends For Peace ended up being one of nine county-based organizations that received a total of $696,000 for the Prince George's County Redevelopment Authority's annual Community Impact Grants.
The Community Impact Grants are one way that the Redevelopment Authority fulfills its mission of decreasing the number of blighted commercial and residential structures that are within a half-mile radius of existing transit centers to improve the quality of life for county residents.
The grants were given out to county-based 501 (c) (3) civic and neighborhood associations or community-based organizations. The donations will help to implement community projects to revitalize areas within the inner beltway.
"In many instances, a small infusion of capital dollars can take a community project from the planning phase to implementation," said Rosalyn Clemens, manager of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program for the Redevelopment Authority. "Community Impact Grants help organizations build their capacity and strengthen their communities."
In order to be eligible for the grant, the organizations had to be located within the county and be in good standing. The grants have to be used for capital purposes, which include purchasing their equipment and materials, and capital expenses that are related to the implementation of the community project. Grant money cannot be used for operations, salaries or personnel.
Additionally, the projects must have to do with either neighborhood beautification or the environment, natural resources and sustainability.
Organizations who were given the grant have up to a year from the date of the grant agreement to complete their project and expend their grant funds.
Nine grants were awarded this year for 11 projects throughout the county with a maximum award of $100,000.
Little Friends for Peace received $50,000 for their Peace Park in Mount Rainier.
"It's timely that they accepted our request and sees it as valuable," Park said. "It's like the right moment of 'wow.' It's the first big step."
The Peace Park will be a place where people can come to learn practices for bringing about peace in their lives and the lives of others, have conversations about peace and hold peace events.
Little Friends For Peace has already set up another park in the city near Arundel Road and worked with the city to establish May as Peace Month. The new Peace Park is a way to spread more of their work around the city.
Another winner was the Gateway Community Development Corporation. The organization serves to drive economic development around the U.S. Route 1 Corridor through things like business and neighborhood development initiatives and the promotion of the arts as a way to build a sense of community.
They received $50,000 to enhance their Media Arts Lab, an art studio that houses 20 resident and non-resident enterprises. The creatives there work in design, digital media services, film and video production and photography. The Media Arts Lab also provides professional creative services to businesses and nonprofits.
CASA de Maryland, an organization that advocates for and works to expand opportunities for Latino and immigrant families, won $53,524 for beautification projects in Langley Park.
The largest sum of money was given to Northern Gateway Community Development Corporation, which received $100,000 for strategic placemaking. The organization strives to revitalize unincorporated neighborhoods in areas such as Adelphi, Avondale, Chillum, Hampshire Knolls and Langley Park. They received another $50,000 for gateway migration.
Other winners were Friends of the Greenbelt Museum who won $50,000 for the expansion of the Greenbelt Museum and the Prince George's Arts and Humanities Council who received grants for two public art projects at 4550 Rhode Island Avenue and the Green Meadows Shopping Center totaling $32,500 each.

Despite starring in all four of Netflix's Marvel series, Rosario Dawson has confirmed that she will not be appearing in The Punisher.
"At the end of the day, it's really hard to get all of those casts together," Dawson said while speaking with Collider about how Netflix is bringing their staple of Marvel shows including Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist together for crossover series The Defenders.
"For The Defenders, it was difficult to get everybody together. People are busy! There are so many times where I really want it to happen. I really wanted to do a cameo on The Punisher, but it doesn't always work that way," she continued.
Dawson appears in Netflix's Marvel universe as nurse Claire Temples who tends to the heroes after a night of crimefighting.
"It's grounding to remind people that we all have the opportunity and skills to be heroes or heroines in our real life, and it's not just these heroes that have special powers that we get to fantasize about," the actress said of how Claire's medical expertise makes her a superhero without needing powers.
Netflix recently released a teaser trailer for The Defenders in which features stars Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter, Mike Colter and Finn Jones taking an elevator down from the 45th floor of the Midland Circle Financial building. Dawson will appear in the series when it launches on Aug. 18.
The action drama will feature characters from Netflix's other Marvel programs Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
The Punisher, starring Jon Bernthal in the title role after being introduced in Daredevil Season 2, began production in October. The action series is set to star Ben Barnes, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Nurse Jackie alum Paul Schulze as a high-ranking CIA member, Daniel Webber, Jason R. Moore, Jaime Ray Newman, Sarah Liberman and Michael Nathanson as Homeland Security agent Sam Stein.
Recently, Dawson confirmed that she is dating Adult Swim comedian Eric Andre on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, noting how caring he is as he helped her recover from a ruptured cyst on her ovary.
"He took care of me in an adult diaper. That is love," she said.

Favorite Christian novels
Lucian Hodoboc
Post subject: Favorite Christian novels
Location: Eastern-Europe
Religion: Eastern-Orthodox
Do you like Christian fiction? Name some of your favorite novels centered around Christianity or containing Christian themes / motifs. This thread is only about fictional works, so don't mention non-fiction books.
Dorothy B.
Post subject: Re: Favorite Christian novels
Church Affiliations: Third Order Lay Carmelite
Lucian:
I very much like to read the novels written by Michael D. O"Brien. The first one I read was "Father Elijah", and then read several more.
He is also an artist as well as a Catholic writer of novels, and designed his book covers.
Other novels of his that I highly prize are: "The Father's Tale", and "Voyage to Alpha Centauri".
Most of his novels are anywhere from 600 to over 1,000 pages. (I don't mind that one bit.)
There are others that I have loaned to grandsons and I can't think of the exact names of them.
That author is capable of writing about deep spiritual mysteries and can convey an awe to the reader.
St. Irenaeus of Lyons
Sons of Thunder
Hi Lucian. Welcome to this community.
It's probably been over a decade since I read and greatly enjoyed Willa Cather's Death Comes for the Archbishop. The following is from a product description of the novel on Amazon:
Willa Cather's best known novel is an epic--almost mythic--story of a single human life lived simply in the silence of the southwestern desert. In 1851 Father Jean Marie Latour comes to serve as the Apostolic Vicar to New Mexico. What he finds is a vast territory of red hills and tortuous arroyos, American by law but Mexican and Indian in custom and belief. In the almost forty years that follow, Latour spreads his faith in the only way he knows--gently, all the while contending with an unforgiving landscape, derelict and sometimes openly rebellious priests, and his own loneliness. Out of these events, Cather gives us an indelible vision of life unfolding in a place where time itself seems suspended.
"Look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church..."
St. Irenaeus of Lyons wrote:
I'm not sure I know what a 'Christian novel' is, but I would say, the Narnia series if that qualifies.
You might consider C. S. Lewis's "Space Trilogy" - Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength - or Walter Miller's great novel, A Canticle for Leibowitz. Or if you like Charles Williams (some people don't, go figure), War in Heaven.
A Canticle for Leibowitz is great, I didn't even think of that one! Often included on lists of 'best science fiction novel ever written', one doesn't have to be Catholic to appreciate it, even CS Lewis, a non-Catholic, was on record as saying it could be a serious candidate for the title.
Arthur C Clarke was a fan of the space trilogy, but I've never cared for it, in general, I've never been all that impressed by Lewis' fiction outside the Narnia series.
Lewis said it was a major work, but said little more about it. He had only read it once, and he planned to read it again.
Lewis liked PERELANDRA best, of his own fiction, until he wrote TILL WE HAVE FACES.
My favorite is THAT HIDEOUS STRENGTH.
For Williams, THE GREATER TRUMPS and PLACE OF THE LION.
He said that but he also said that he thought it might be the best science fiction novel that he ever read. Lewis was also a fan of 'Childhood's End', for a while there, Lewis and Clarke (heh!) had a little mutual admiration society going on
I was citing his comments in the transcribed recording of his discussion with Brian Aldis and Kingsley Amis, published in a couple of places, such as OF OTHER WORLDS ("Unreal Estates"). I thought maybe it was also in a letter, but there is no mention is Hoopers collection.
Where might he have said that, as to possibly being the best SF novel he had ever read?
I got the book on Lewis and Clarke's interactions somewhere, but ICFT.
A Canticle for Leibowitz is one of my favorite sf novels - definitely in the top 3. If I were reading it at the moment I would probably say that it was my favorite, but then the same could be said for The Mote in God's Eye. But I like That Hideous Strength almost as much, even though it is radically different from the other two novels in the Space Trilogy. I have to admit, I am not a huge fan of Perelandra but other people do like it - and like it a lot - so I feel obliged to mention it.
Basically my position, all around. So much so that I am impelled to send you a PM.
My top over these years is still AJ Cronin's "Keys of the Kingdom".

Blog · Shabby Chic style · SAVOY HOUSE EUROPE. S.L.
The Shabby Chic decorating style is original from Great Britain, at the time of the large garden, which was very common to find sofas and curtains worn along with other newer or higher quality items. This mixture of ancient elements with more modern and current decoration is taking a greater role as a trend in decoration and furniture.
Shabby Chic style is a mix between the classic and elegant but with a touch old and very classy. It recreates Romantic and feminine atmospheres with worn look vintage pieces. A perfect combination of furniture and objects recovered and reused without losing its essence and value.
It is distinguished by using a palette of pastel colors like pink, blue, green or beige, but definitely the predominant color is white. This color it is used to both walls and decorative items to create a greater feeling of spaciousness in space and a strong contrast to other more striking decorative elements, as it is very common to use details with flowers and patterns.
Other accessories widely used in this style of decoration, are the printed pads with flowers, drapes, candles, antique vases, and so.
Our collections of lamps Madeliane, Cerulean, Nicolette, Evelyn, Ives and Abagail meet the basic requirements to become star pieces in lighting a space Shabby Chic.
This exquisite chandelier has the timeless beauty of a French antique updated with a warm Wood and Iron finish, and crystal spear pendalogues.
One of the most differentiated collections in our catalog. Designed by the prestigious American designer Tracy Porter who draws attention to the harmony of its blue, green and red colors with finishing wooden pickled with white details. Hand-decorated luminaries that undoubtedly increase the artistic value of this collection.
Flore hand painted on white snow colour, glasses and crystals to the strong water and cover-candles with effect of drops of wax. The Evelyn collection, composed of a semi-pendant and a 5 arm ceiling light.
A vintage birdcage has modern sophistication with the addition of sparkling crystals is the most outstanding piece of this collection.

HomeAir/ClimateIPCC Report: Climate Risks Grow As Earth's Temperature Rises
IPCC Report: Climate Risks Grow As Earth's Temperature Rises
March 28, 2014 News Editor Air/Climate, Latest News, RSS Comments Off on IPCC Report: Climate Risks Grow As Earth's Temperature Rises

YOKOHAMA, Japan, March 28, 2014 (ENS) – Fast-rising sea levels, declining fisheries, more air pollution and an ice-free Arctic summer are projected by scientists and government representatives from around the world meeting now in Yokohama to finalize the latest assessment of climate change impacts on human and natural systems.
This report by Working Group II of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, covers options for adaptation, and the interactions among climate changes, other stresses on societies and opportunities for the future.
Initial drafts of the report leaked to the media project that climate change will increase the risk of food and water shortages and related social conflicts in the coming decades.

"This report considers consequences of climate changes that have already occurred and the risks across a range of possible futures. It considers every region and many sectors, ranging from oceans to human security," said Dr. Chris Field of the Carnegie Institution for Science in the United States, who serves as co-chair of Working Group II.
Working Group II is reporting on the impacts of climate change on freshwater resources, land and ocean ecosystems, coasts, food, urban and rural areas, energy and industry, human health and security, as well as livelihoods and poverty.
"The focus is as much on identifying effective responses as on understanding challenges," said Dr. Field.
A draft of the summary shows that rising ocean temperatures will continue, affecting ocean productivity, fish populations and the livelihoods of coastal fishing communities. The draft projects the loss of fisheries of up to 60 percent in some tropical zones, particularly in Africa.
Rising sea levels are likely to swamp some of Asia's largest cities by 2100, with Calcutta, Mumbai, Dhaka, Shanghai, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City and Rangoon among those at greatest risk.
Super Typhoon Haiyan (local name Yolanda) in the city of Tacloban, Leyte, Philippines, Nov. 9, 2013 (Photo by UNICEF)
Sea level rise could inundate an estimated 15 percent of Pacific islands over the long term, the report warns.
The draft indicates that ocean acidification and warming will hit corals hard. Survival of even moderately healthy coral reefs is consistent only with scenarios in the 430-480 parts per million of carbon dioxide, CO2.
Since the Industrial Revolution, the atmospheric concentration of CO2 has increased from 280 ppm to 400 ppm as of 2013. It is currently rising at a rate of two ppm a year and accelerating.
Rising global temperatures will result in more urban air pollution and bigger wildfires, the report will show.
A warming Arctic will be ice-free for as long as 125 days a year by mid-century, opening the region for commodity shipping and resource exploitation.
The report acknowledges limits to human ability to adapt to all the projected droughts, floods and extreme weather events – suffering is inevitable, considering the concentration of greenhouse gases already in the atmosphere.
As all previous IPCC reports have done, this report will urge the need for adaptation and carbon emissions reductions to avoid much worse disruptions.
This assessment comes as world governments are negotiating under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change to deliver a new and universal greenhouse gas reduction protocol, legal instrument or other outcome with legal force by 2015 for the period beyond 2020.
IPCC Chair Dr. Rajendra Pachauri at the Yokohama meeting, Mar. 25, 2014 (Photo courtesy IPCC)
IPCC Chair Dr. Rajendra Pachauri opened the Yokohama meeting, saying, "Overall, the management of risk related to climate change impacts would be the dominant approach emerging from this assessment."
This meeting of Working Group II is the culmination of four years' work by hundreds of experts who have volunteered their time and knowledge of climate science. Their report is not new research, but instead gathers and reports on research already conducted.
Vicente Barros of the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, the other Working Group II co-chair, said, "The Working Group II author team assessed thousands of papers to produce a definitive report of the state of knowledge concerning climate-change impacts, adaptation, and vulnerability. Many hundreds of volunteers, in and beyond the author team, approached this work with dedication and deep expertise."
In Yokohama, participants are approving the Summary for Policymakers and the full draft report, checking the text line by line, under the direction of Barros and Field.
Dr. Barros was Professor of Climatology and Director of the Master Program of Environmental Sciences at the School of Sciences of the University of Buenos Aires. He is currently Emeritus Professor of this University. He has published over 60 peer-reviewed papers, most of them on climate variability and trends in South America.
Dr. Field has been a pioneer in developing new approaches to understand the large-scale function of the Earth system. The founding director of the Department of Global Ecology at the Carnegie Institution for Science, he has made major contributions to physiological ecology, ecosystem ecology, biogeochemistry, and climate science.
Field said, "The author team assessed over 12,000 scientific publications, benefited from thoughtful comments from over 1,700 expert and government reviewers, read and assimilated more than 50,000 review comments, under the careful eye of dedicated review editors. With every line carefully checked and rechecked, Working Group II has produced what I believe to be the most complete, thorough, and authoritative assessment on climate change impacts, adaptation, and vulnerability to date."
On Monday, March 31 the Summary for Policymakers will be released to the public, along with the draft full report.
The Technical Support Unit of Working Group II is hosted by the Carnegie Institution for Science and funded by the government of the United States.
This report is part two of a four-part assessment, known as the Fifth Assessment Report, AR5.
The first part, by Working Group I, dealing with the physical science basis of climate change, was finalized in September 2013. This group of scientists found with 95 percent certainty that humans are the "dominant cause" of global warming since the 1950s. On land, in the atmosphere and in the oceans, global warming is "unequivocal," they stated.
The Working Group III contribution, assessing mitigation of climate change, will be finalized in April. The Fifth Assessment Report will be completed by a Synthesis Report in October.
The Fifth Assessment Report builds on the four previous assessment reports produced by the IPCC since it was established in 1988.
The Nobel Prize winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is the international body for assessing the science related to climate change. It was established in 1988 by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Programme to provide policymakers with regular assessments of the scientific basis of climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation.

IPCC: Global Warming Impacts May Be 'Irreversible'


Sebastian Rieder is a Level 1 staff member out of CrossFit Vienna. He shares how he found CrossFit and how CrossFit has changed his life. For him, one of the most profound changes CrossFit has brought is improved health.
Rieder coaches the air squat at a Level 1 Seminar and points out how to correct squatting flaws.
"The one big thing is he's definitely moving too fast to feel what's going on with his body," he says of an athlete brought to the center of the circle.
He slows the athlete down and helps him find and maintain his lumbar curve during the squat.
Too bad Sevan didn't ask you about the exact formula for calculating average power..
Chewing gum while instructing. No good.
nice work. liked the superman on the floor and then back to squat to link the back extension on the squat.
ad Jami&Danny: thanks guys. Efficiency is key ;-). Will i see you (Jami) in Stockholm??
Sebastian, the Austrian Beast, as Jami calls him :). I really enjoyed your teaching of both the theory and practice during CF-L1 training @ CrossFit Vienna last weekend. You are definitely a role model for newbies like me.

The successor state to Sri Vijaya, Majapahit, was founded in a bold string of treacheries. The son-in-law of the Singhasari king broke with his father-in-law to found the Hindu Majapahit kingdom in 1292. When Kublai Khan's punitive expedition arrived the next year, he allied his kingdom with the Mongols. On destroying his father-in-law with Mongol help, he immediately turned and slaughtered the Mongols.
Despite its promising start, the Javanese Majapahit empire would be relatively short-lived. It was founded just as the penetration of Muslim traders and proselytizers into the archipelago was gaining in strength. Majapahit was fortunate in having the services of Gajah Madah; an ambitious and determined Prime Minister and Regent. In his long career from 1331 to 1364, Gajah Madah brought Bali, Java and Sumatra effectively under Majapahit control. A few years after his death, the Majapahit navy took Palembang, the Sri Vijayan capital, and thus put the former empire to a definitive end in 1377; or so it seemed.
Majapahit was divided by a war of succession in 1401 that went on for four years. Weakened by internal dissension it could not stop the rising power of the Sultanate of Malacca. Majapahit continued to disintegrate and finally collapsed in 1478.
The imperial ambitions of the Indianized kingdoms of Java, Malaya and Sumatra concentrated mainly on gaining from their rivals a larger share of the commercial traffic that passed through the archipelago and the Straits. Territorial aggrandizement does not seem to have been the object of their rivalries. From time to time new settlements from Java (985, 1280 and 1387) were founded on Borneo. They have more the sporadic character of exiles forced to flee the vicissitudes of Javanese politics than a deliberate policy of imperial expansion.
Unlike the rapid and ubiquitous spread of Islam that was to follow, the influence of Hindic-Buddhist culture in the archipelago remained localized in the vicinity of the Straits.

Q: Does empty LONGTEXT string takes 4GB of disc space? I've been reading about disc usage/space for different strings, it says that LONGTEXT takes 4GB.
Is that disk space declared for FULLY FILLED column or JUST CREATED (Empty)
Thank You.

A: The answer is: L + 4 bytes, where L < 2^32

Variable-length string types are stored using a length prefix plus
  data. The length prefix requires from one to four bytes depending on
  the data type, and the value of the prefix is L (the byte length of
  the string). For example, storage for a MEDIUMTEXT value requires L

Are you investing in paid ads for your B2B company, but concerned about ad blocking undermining your efforts?
If so, you have good reason, as this was one of the top challenges identified by B2B marketers in 2016. We're seeing the use of ad blocking software continue to grow, and in 2017, 32% of internet users are expected to be blocking ads.
Thankfully, there are actions you can take to overcome the problem of ad blocking. Diversifying your marketing channels and providing quality ad experiences are some of the major strategies you can employ.
Don't worry if you're unsure about where to start. This article will explain what ad blocking software is and why it's hurting B2B marketers. We'll then provide a step-by-step guide to help you overcome your ad blocking challenges.
Ad blocking software usage is on the rise and is posing a huge challenge to B2B marketers.
It's important that marketers take action to mitigate the effects that ad blocking has on the cost of advertising.
By evaulating your strategy, diversifying your marketing channels, and improving ad quality, you can overcome many of the threats posed by ad blocking.
Ad blocking software is just what it sounds like—technology used to block the display of online advertisements.
Why are people using this software? Studies have shown the primary reasons include increasing privacy, reducing distractions, and improving page load times. And while internet users may be reaping benefits, marketers and publishers are facing some serious challenges.
In many cases of ad blocking, the ad isn't shown and doesn't register as having been served. While this doesn't pose an immediate cost to advertisers, mass use of ad blockers lowers the overall reach for marketers. In turn, the number of click-throughs is reduced, increasing costs per click or impression.
In worse cases, both the website and ad are served but the ad is hidden. This means your ad could be reported as having been served without the possibility of anyone seeing it.
While neither of these are good scenarios, the second means you're paying for impressions which are never delivered. As you can see, both instances can be taxing on the budget, so lets look at how to overcome them.
In this section we'll outline the three steps you need to take to protect your advertising dollars. Let's get started!
The first thing you need to do is benchmark your current ad performance and audience sentiments. By doing so, you can find out if you're taking a hit from ad blocking.
Check your performance by looking at your ad analytics to see your results over the past two years. Has your return on investment grown, plateaued, or worse, dropped? You should also survey your customers to find out how they feel about your ads. Ask them if they find them helpful and if they would like to see more.
There are ways to find out how many ads are being blocked, and many new companies are offering services to help detect ad blocking activity (PageFair is one of the industry leaders). However, a recent report by competitor Streamwize shows that, although PageFair is considered an authority, they are only detecting 20% of blocked ads.
Clearly, there is some uncertainty in the industry. If your results are showing declining returns, you can contact your publisher to ask how they are handling ad blocking. While some publishers make it a priority to deliver a good experience to marketers, such as Google (who prioritizes only counting actual human views), others don't. If you're unsure who to trust, Hubspot has compiled a list of reputable publishers, which can serve as an excellent starting point.
Native Advertising: Native advertising is a strategy where articles are written by a brand who pays to have them displayed on a publisher's site. The advertising is blended with editorial content and satisfies the desire of the consumer to read engaging content. This tactic is growing and, interestingly, 77% of consumers in a recent survey said they don't even identify native ads as an advertisement. This concept has also been introduced to social media, where you can place native ads that blend in with other content.
Product Placement: With product placement, you integrate your product or service into some other form of entertainment. We have seen this take off with influencer marketing on various social media channels. You partner with a popular personality who incorporates your product or service into their content. There are lots of tools available to help B2B companies find influencers.
Inbound Marketing: Inbound marketing is about pulling traffic to your site, instead of pushing content out to your audience. Every B2B company should be investing in this kind of strategy which includes a blog, social media presence, web pages with valuable content, and SEO. You can use each channel to support the others. This allows you to build credibility and visibility in your industry that won't ever be blocked.
By diversifying your digital marketing efforts, and investing in channels that are growing, ad blocking will become less of a concern.
What if you are still getting decent results from your ads? Since there are still many people who are not using ad blocking software, they can provide ROI as part of your online marketing strategy, at least for the time being. However, your ads need to put the user experience first.
IAB and EY found in a recent study that quality issues, such as those associated with ads, cost the US digital advertising industry $8.2 billion dollars per year. Furthermore, when looking at why people use ad blockers, based on research from Hubspot, the number one reason is that they find ads annoying and intrusive.
As marketers, we can control the quality and relevance of ads so they are not seen as annoying, intrusive, disruptive, offensive, or data-heavy.
How? By using all of the data we can get our hands on to get a better understanding of the customer and where they are in the buying cycle. This includes data collected on-site, off-site, and offline, which can be used to plan ad strategies with the full picture of the customer in mind.
By taking steps to put your customer's overall ad experience first, you can discourage your audience from wanting to download an ad blocker in the first place.
One thing is for sure—no B2B company wants to waste their marketing dollars. With that in mind, it's important to be aware of the current ad blocking trends and the actions you can take to protect your bottom line.
Evaluate your current ad strategy.
Invest in omnichannel digital markteing techniques.

HomeStorage Management
Kazeon Offers Resource Visibility, Storage Optimization
By Drew Robb
While most organizations have a handle on structured data residing in their databases, it's the vast number of files residing outside of databases that makes information management such a headache. Such files can account for 70 percent to 80 percent of data stored online, typically scattered across multiple servers and networks, and is very hard to manage. As a result, IT organizations have little visibility into how storage is being used or what type of information is being stored on the systems they are managing. This is particularly the case on NAS systems.
"Most people have no idea what is being stored on their NAS systems," says Jay Desai, director of product management at Kazeon Systems of Mountain View, Calif. "The guy managing that data really lacks visibility. He doesn't know, for example, how many copies of each file he has stored."
Three Flavors
The company offers the Kazeon Information Server (IS) in three different versions.
The Kazeon IS1200-FRM is aimed at optimizing file servers and NAS resources by leveraging file attribute information. It can quickly find files distributed across storage volumes, simplify response to legal discovery or compliance audits, classify files based on file metadata and file content, and take action (move, copy, delete) to migrate files to tiered storage. This migration can occur as a one-time move or an automated transparent migration of files that occurs at preset intervals.
"We discover, scan and index files, either at the metadata or content level, or both," says Desai. "Adding such capabilities makes it easy to know your storage content, spot duplicates and isolate files that should not be stored — such as those containing personal information being kept in a line of business system."
The IS1200-FRM also provides file reporting and data placement for tiered storage. The base system is a commodity 1U server loaded with Kazeon software.
"Because it is out-of-band and agent-less, installing the IS1200-FRM involves no disruption to existing processes and environments," says Desai. "One of our boxes can be installed and scanning all your NAS filers in about 30 minutes."
The base IS1200-FRM system, for example, helps administrators reduce the amount of effort spent manually gathering information. According to Desai, a single system can discover and classify many millions of files each day. One unit costs around $50,000. Alternatively, these Kazeon units can also be clustered into a single logical system. By doing so, they then offer automated failover and workload distribution.
Two More Units
Kazeon produces two more units. The Kazeon IS1200-SA is focused on storage search solutions such as backup search and recovery, legal discovery and archive search. The IS1200-SA search technology can be used for large file repositories from primary file servers to archive and backup stores. It enables a full text search for nearly 400 kinds of files that may be distributed across hundreds of servers. This includes e-mail files, .pst folders, or compressed .zip files. To accomplish this requires about 5 percent additional storage.
Further, this search technology goes beyond standard keyword search applications to include searches based on file metadata or other attributes. Security policies integrate with Active Directory or NIS identity management systems.
The IS1200-ECS, on the other hand, is aimed squarely at information governance issues related to data privacy, security and compliance. It takes a content-aware approach to policy-based automated file management. The idea is to quickly identify potential exposures and automate policy enforcement around encryption and retention.
The Kazeon policy engine, for example, helps preserve files for long-term retention and controls access via a search interface. Abstracts add advanced search and tagging services to support compliance audit or legal discovery activities.
NetApp and Google on Tap
The potential of Kazeon's technology is demonstrated by the company it keeps. It has partnerships with Google, for example, which uses the IS1200 with a Google Search Appliance to provide Google users with easier access to files.
It has also teamed up with Network Appliance. Kazeon's Information Server is being harnessed by NetApp's DataONTAP OS for greater visibility into the content of unstructured data, as well as business policy automation for compliance and litigation purposes. The NetApp Transparent Migration Manager and the NetApp Retention Manager discover and manage files to meet compliance, legal discovery and corporate data retention needs.
"Our technology is all about ILM, and that's why storage OEMs have realized they need it," says Desai.

Fastnet Dominates Magic Millions Day One
Champion sire Fastnet Rock dominated at the 2013 Magic Millions Yearling Sale at the Gold Coast on Wednesday providing five of the top seven lots. Sharing top honours, after both selling to Gai Waterhouse and James Harron Bloodstock for $500,000 apiece, were a filly from Legally Bay and a colt from Liberty Rose, that was initially passed in and later sold. The eye-catching duo had pedigree to match their good looks, the filly being a full sister to this season's spring Group II winner Jolie Bay and the colt a three-quarter brother to stakes-winner Grand Jardin. "She is the best bred filly out of a top class mare," Waterhouse exclaimed after securing the filly. "How can you go wrong? She has a gorgeous demeanour." Not far behind them was another powerful Fastnet Rock colt from stakes-winner My Lady's Chamber that made $460,000 when also knocked down to Gai Waterhouse and James Harron Bloodstock. Other big sellers for Fastnet Rock were fillies from Rock Diva and Livealifeforlove (USA) that made $360,000 and $330,000 respectively. Fastnet Rock had seven yearlings average $358,571 during the first session.

Stinking Dighalipukhuri giving hellish time to visitors
By The Assam Tribune - 6 Nov 2021 2:45 PM GMT
Guwahati, Nov 6: Passersby and city residents visiting Dighalipukhuri are facing hardships due to the foul smell emanating from the water of the pond.
The reason for the smell is traceable to the fact that the Dighalipukhuri pond has not been cleared for the last four months.
Last June, hundreds of fish died in the Dighalipukhuri due to the low oxygen levels in the water body.
Nearly 200 people including children visit the Dighalipukhuri every day.
"We have been getting the foul smell from the last seven days. Authorities concerned were informed about the condition of the pond. As a temporary measure to remove the odour, bleaching powder has been applied from the side of the department," an official of the park said.
The recreational facility and the pond are maintained by the State tourism department.
"We visited the park for our children. The foul smell emanating from the water was so strong that we could not stay even for five minutes. It could lead to serious health hazards to the people visiting the park and nearby people in the area," said a parent.
"It is total negligence from the side of the department. The pond could not be cleaned due to lack of funds," said a source. If the department does not take immediate action to clean it, there is a risk of decreasing the oxygen level which can lead to death of fish.
An official of the Tourism department said that the water of Dighalipukhuri stinks every year during this time as the water level of the pond goes down.


You should all be ashamed of yourselves. All 32 of you.
Yes, those 32 of you elected members of Dáil Éireann who feel the people don't deserve their say.
Just to make sure you realise I am talking about you, your picture is here beside this piece on this page.
Just to be absolutely sure here are your names: Bobby Aylward, Sean Barrett, Declan Breathnach, Mary Butler, Jackie Cahill, Sean Canney, Pat Casey, Shane Cassells, Jack Chambers, Michael Collins, John Curran, Michael Fitzmaurice, Peter Fitzpatrick, Pat 'The Cope' Gallagher, Noel Grealish, Sean Haughey, Danny Healy-Rae, Michael Healy-Rae, Michael Lowry, Marc MacSharry, Mattie McGrath, John McGuinness, Aindrias Moynihan, Margaret Murphy O'Mahony, Eugene Murphy, Carol Nolan, Kevin O'Keeffe, Frank O'Rourke, Éamon Ó Cuív, Eamon Scanlon, Brendan Smith, and Niamh Symth.
I am talking about the decision of TDs from all sides of the House last Wednesday to vote against allowing the people of this country have their say on the country's abortion laws.
While the Dáil voted by 110 votes to 32 in the first vote of the day to hold a referendum, there was much shock at why so many Fianna Fáil TDs defied their party leader Micheál Martin on the simple question of holding a referendum.
This was not the substantive issue of the merits of abortion but merely a vote on a vote.
How dare you. You have got some nerve, you really do, as elected legislators.
How dare you be as arrogant as that to say the people do not deserve the right to have their say.
The very people who saw fit to put you in your €94,000-plus-expenses-a-year job.
Now I have a great deal of respect for some of the names on that list above and very little respect for some others who did not surprise me in what they did.
But, in truth, they should have known better than to seek to act in such a shamelessly anti-democratic fashion. It was an act of hostility on the people of this country and no reason put forward by those involved has come close to a sense of credibility which would justify such an act of political skulduggery.
Let's go through some of them.
Carlow-Kilkenny TD Bobby Aylward said: "Once the Eighth Amendment is removed the fate of the unborn will be placed in the hands of the legislators".
"Future governments with a strong majority, whether they lean hard to the left or hard to the right, could make further legislative change which the people of Ireland may have no control over. That is important," he said.
I am a democrat, I had no problem with the question going to the people, but when I saw it set down and the wording that we were putting to the people, I couldn't accept it. I agonised yesterday morning, because, as I say, I am a democrat, I had to put that against the wording, and when I read the Government's wording, that's when I decided to vote no. I personally could not put my signature to what I believed went against my core beliefs. I am glad this is going to the people, but I could not vote in favour of it.
Tipperary's Jackie Cahill said he could not accept the wording, which would task the Dáil with legislating if the referendum is passed.
"I was not voting against a referendum," he said. "I believe there should be a referendum but I was against the wording." Louth TD Declan Breathnach also disagreed with the wording and claimed he had not been given the opportunity to table amendments. "I am a believer in democracy. I always said from day one that I was in favour of a referendum," he said.
Another of the 21 Fianna Fáil TDs who voted no is John McGuinness. He said: "I voted no at second stage just to exercise my right to comment on the actual process and the referendum insofar as they are talking about repealing the Eighth Amendment and taking away the protection for a child and a mother in the Constitution.
Party whip, Michael Moynihan, said it is "not acceptable to allow an Oireachtas, whatever its make-up, to decide" on the rights of the unborn.
Many people debating this 35 years ago would not have envisaged the type of Oireachtas we have today and who is to say what an Oireachtas of the future will be like? It could be ultraliberal or ultraconservative but God alone knows. I am standing by what is in the Constitution and it should not be repealed.
Such utterances are completely perverse.
So, they are insisting the process is flawed and they can't support even putting the question to the people and politicians cannot be trusted to handle grown-up, complex issues like abortion.
They said the wording of the question was the issue, as is their fear that they themselves, the Oireachtas, cannot be trusted to do their job and legislate on grown-up, serious issues.
Well if that is the case, if you are not up to the job, pack it in and let someone else do it.
It is the job of the Oireachtas to make the laws of the land. Not just on easy issues, but on tricky, complex issues like abortion, migration rights, and many more.
But their rantings also ignore the fundamental aspect of democracy.
That it is the people who must have their say.
To deny that is a perversion of that democracy and, as John Halligan speaking to this newspaper said, represents an "affront to that democracy".
Unlike other political commentators who have sought to rule this out, the decision of the 21 Fianna Fáil TDs to go against their leader at this point, in my view, was totally about sending their vulnerable leader a message.
Deeply unhappy about his decision to back the referendum, as well as the proposal to allow abortions in all cases up to 12 weeks, it is clear an organised movement from a small number of TDs influenced colleagues to make the stand.
Senior party figures have said that they know a small number of Fianna Fáil TDs influenced many others in voting against a bill to allow a referendum on the Eighth Amendment.
Martin, who previously came out strongly in favour of repeal and access to abortion up to the 12th week of pregnancy, was furious after the vote and stands diminished as a result.
The Fianna Fáil TDs who voted against holding a referendum rejected accusations that they acted to block democracy, but that is exactly what they did.
It would make you sick.

Q: How to set 'Display Product Options In' = 'Block After Info Column' globally By default, Products options are shown in Product Info Box. If you want to show them below the info box, either
1 You have to edit xml layout update: catalog.xml
<block type="catalog/product_view" name="product.info" template="catalog/product/view.phtml">
    ...
    <action method="unsetCallChild"><child>container1</child><call>ifEquals</call><if>1</if><key>alias_in_layout</key><key>options_container</key></action>
    <action method="unsetCallChild"><child>container2</child><call>ifEquals</call><if>1</if><key>alias_in_layout</key><key>options_container</key></action>
</block>

Drawback of this approach is we can't override in local.xml. It has to be edited in the catalog.xml file itself.
2 or run SQL update as:
/* @var $this Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Setup */
$this->startSetup();
// get options_container attribute and update its value to 'container2' for configurable products
$attribute = $this->getAttribute('catalog_product', 'options_container');
if (!empty($attribute['attribute_id'])) {
    $this->run("
        UPDATE {$this->getTable('catalog_product_entity_varchar')}
        SET value = 'container2'
        WHERE
            entity_id IN (SELECT entity_id FROM {$this->getTable('catalog_product_entity')} WHERE type_id='configurable')
            AND attribute_id={$attribute['attribute_id']}
    ");
}

$this->endSetup();

I am just looking for third approach which works via local.xml layout update.

A: You can use a <reference> directive in the local.xml layout update, which should do the trick:
<catalog_product_view>
    <reference name="product.info">
        <action method="unsetCallChild"><child>container1</child><call>ifEquals</call><if>1</if><key>alias_in_layout</key><key>options_container</key></action>
        <action method="unsetCallChild"><child>container2</child><call>ifEquals</call><if>1</if><key>alias_in_layout</key><key>options_container</key></action>
    </reference>
</catalog_product_view>

A: $productIds = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection()
    ->addAttributeToFilter('type_id', 'configurable')
    ->getAllIds();

Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product_action')->updateAttributes(
    $productIds,
    array('options_container' => 'container2'),
    0
)

On 14 March 2015, the march called "Europe Stands with Tibet" assembled in Paris supporters of Tibet from all over Europe. The peaceful manifestation united the voices of Tibetans, which "...makes the Tibet issue stronger", as was highlighted by Tibetan Prime Minister Lobsang Sangay. Despite the increasing security surveillance in Tibet, Tibetan political leaders are ready to enter into a new phase of peaceful dialogue with Beijing.

The international community should support Tibet because of the non-violent struggle of its people, Tibetan prime minister-in-exile Lobsang Sangay has said.
"It's not an extremist or violent struggle as we see in many parts of the world," Sangay told reporters at the French Parliament on Thursday (12 March 2015).
Tibet Group president in the French senate Michel Raison, who was accompanying Sangay, said: "The non-violent struggle of the Tibetan people must be commended and is an example for other struggles to follow."
He said the human rights of the Tibetan people were the most important and the Tibet supporters in both -- the French national assembly and senate -- are working together for Tibet.
"The French people support us for being involved in the non-violent struggle of the Tibetan people," Raison said.
Expressing concern about the large migration of Chinese population into Tibet, Sangay said: "Inside Tibet, nothing has changed... in fact it has gotten worse."
About the dialogue with China, the Tibetan political leader said "the envoys of the Dalai Lama are ready to engage in dialogue with their Chinese counterpart at any time and any place".
