Best of Orlando® 2011
By Orlando Weekly and Staff
Best way to pass time in a drainage ditch
When former Orlando resident Thomas Horrell first set foot on a wakeskate – basically, a wakeboard on which your feet are unattached – in the late '90s, he was thrilled, but also bothered: The new sport was far less accessible than its inspiration, skateboarding. "It was super expensive to have a boat or a jet ski or anything like that," he says.
Horrell found his solution in 2003, at an improbable location: the small Opa-locka airport in north Miami. On the terminal runway, he noticed a fuel hose being reeled quickly into a machine-powered spool. The light bulb flicked on. "I was like, 'Yeah, we can definitely do something with this for wakeskating,'" he says. Before long, the winch was born.
The modern wakeskate winch features a spool of up to a thousand feet of rope and a motor with a horsepower usually in the single-digits. Firmly fastened to a trailer hitch, or a tree, or a rock, or any sturdy/heavy object, the winch can tow a wakeskater across the water, the same way a small motorboat would. It's the perfect solution for watersports enthusiasts on a budget – or those unable to cajole friends into towing them behind a boat for hours a day.
But "winching" has become far more than a money saver – it's opened up new worlds for wakeskaters looking to tackle obstacles in places where no boat or jet ski could safely go, such as drainage ditches, lakeside ledges, dams and "gaps" between water bodies with different elevations. Orlando is host to a vibrant winching scene – not surprising, considering that it was essentially born here (Horrell lived in Orlando between 1998 and 2006). For proof, Google the phrase "DIY with Ben Horan" and you'll find a video of wakeskaters employing the winch at a spot near the 408 overpass and Anderson Street, performing varial kickflips and big spins over a drop between a drainage tunnel and a shallow retention pond filled with sludgy water. Other popular spots around town include the sloping concrete ledge behind the storage units near the intersection of Lee Road and Edgewater Drive, and the "MetroWest Gap," a decorative waterfall near Valencia State College's West Campus.
Today, winching has spread to all latitudes of the extreme-sports spectrum, such as skateboarding and snowboarding – if you're still online, check out Red Bull's "Winch Sessions." In sum, we're excited about the enormous potential of the winch, but it may only be a matter of time before we open the newspaper and see "winch" and "hazing" in the same paragraph.
Best endangered outdoor drinking spot
Wekiva Island
1014 Miami Springs Drive, Longwood; 407-862-1500; wekivaisland.com
Since sometime in the mid-1960s, this little marina on the Wekiva River, not far from Wekiva Springs State Park, has been a gathering place for locals. All year long, people come here to rent canoes and kayaks, play volleyball on the sand courts, fish, rent cabanas on the river or just kick back with a cold beer from the outdoor bar. But apparently, there are some neighbors in town – the kind who live in the McMansions surrounding this primitive partying spot on the riverbank – who don't like living near it. They say too much partying, drinking and noise is disrupting their lives. "It's not what we bargained for when we bought in here," one neighbor complained to the Orlando Sentinel last fall. In January, the owners of Wekiva Island won a battle to get the parcel of land it sits on zoned so it can become an "ecotourism" destination and extend its operating hours. But displeased neighbors promised they'd be keeping tabs on the place, ready to file their complaints should things get too rowdy at the river.
Best place for a late-night game of pickup basketball
University of Central Florida's outdoor courts
4000 Central Florida Blvd., 407-823-2408 rec.ucf.edu m
As the Miami Heat inched closer to the NBA Finals this year, you may have found yourself with the urge to pick up the rock and work on your fade-away jumper, while muttering profanities to an imaginary LeBron James. But if it's 10 p.m. and you have no basketball, no hoop and nobody to play with, it's a bit difficult to express your Finals Fantasy. Unless, of course, you're near the campus of the University of Central Florida, which is a reliable place to get in on some pickup ball games. Just to the right of the school's Wellness Center – e.g., the gym – are three well-maintained and fully marked outdoor courts. The school stops checking for parking permits around 10:30 p.m., though police are supposedly – supposedly – checking occasionally after that. The lights stay on til midnight, so it's the perfect place to indulge your inner Dwight Howard.
Best bad sports ad campaign
Predators' "Get your nuts back" advertisements
So it's Super Bowl Sunday, and just when you think you're enjoying a respite from the typical commercial inanity, this scene comes up: A man wearing a football jersey sits in the bleachers of a deserted stadium. "Football season is over," the voiceover says. The man despondently munches from a bag of peanuts, until a janitor yanks the bag from his hand. "And now, you've lost your nuts!" Cut to a series of clips of Orlando's arena football team, the Predators, in action, along with cheering fans. Cue a severely pubescent voiceover which exhorts you to "get your nuts back" at an Amway Center "packed with football … AND NUTS." Finally, the commercial ends with our protagonist totally fellating a bag of peanuts with gusto, after getting two season tickets – and two bags of nuts – for only $99! After the 30-second spot ends, you wonder what else $2.6 million could have purchased for the Preds.
Best community-minded skatepark
5043 Forsyth Commerce Road; 407-440-2802; midtownskatepark.com
We skateboarders (there is one of us here at the Weekly) are typically a self-centered bunch; while skating we can usually be found with a pair of headphones on, gaze averted downward, communicating only with taps of the board. But when we anti-social shredders see our cohorts breaking with the pack in an attempt to create a skateboarding community, we're secretly thrilled. Midtown Skatepark, which opened last August on Forsyth Road, has brought a vibrant new skate scene to a quasi-industrial quadrant of town, not only by hosting a constantly changing – and improving – series of obstacles, but by playing host to lively contests, premieres of videos both local and national, and generally being a good place to watch dudes that are way better than you utterly kill it.
Best 5 o'clock shadow
Orlando Magic players stop shaving during playoffs
This year was supposed to be the year – again – for the Orlando Magic to bring home the NBA title, especially with the team's spiffy new Amway Center home and the addition of seasoned veteran Gilbert Arenas to the team after the season-turning trades. To spark the team's "Blue & White Ignite" flame, forward Quentin Richardson convinced his fellow players to stop shaving their faces (they veteoed shaving their heads due to the fact that a few players were already balding) during their playoff run. The campaign hairballed into a citywide hirsute effort. Diehard fans, local radio personalities and even Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer were part of the stubbly mess. Turns out the hair didn't help the team much: The Magic suffered an embarrassing series loss to Atlanta in the first-round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Now Magic fans are tearing their hair out in frustration.
Best cross-state rivalry
War on I-4: Orlando Predators vs. Tampa Bay Storm
orlandopredators.com
If you've ever been to an arena football game you know the high-action plays on the field – and even more so the drunken fans in the stands – create one hell of a rowdy atmosphere. And the fierce rivalry between these two down-the-road opponents – which this year celebrates its 20th anniversary since its inception back in 1991 (not to be confused with the later conceived college-football battle between UCF and USF) – continues to create hostility between players and fans alike. The Predators and the Storm meet at least twice a year, and both teams are known for bussing fans along I-4 (hence the name) to the respective opponent's arena for away games. The decades-long series stood tied evenly until the Predators defeated the Storm at the new Amway Center in May, when the Preds sought revenge for their defeat in last year's American Conference Championship. That shiny new arena might just be a good luck charm for the Preds, after all.
Best use for a baseball bat
Armando Gutierrez, Jr.
Once a Republican political hopeful whisked into Central Florida in a Republican carpetbag from his South Florida home as a viable rival for Alan Grayson's House seat, Armando Gutierrez quickly dropped the political ball in favor of his one true passion: baseball. When he slipped out of the race in early 2010, all of his Field of Dreams posturing gave off a whiff of a mental asylum or a particularly misguided douchebag. But by May 2011, Gutierrez's mission had only become more crystallized with a Hail-Mary proposal to build a baseball stadium for the Tampa Yankees farm league near the convention center on International Drive. Also, the county would be expected to take a loss on the whole deal. This will never happen. Then again, that's what they told Kevin Costner, right?
Best way to taunt alligators
Paratour powered paragliding
23706 Tex Wheeler Ave., Christmas ; 352-461-6723; paratour.com
Right across from where Midway Airboat launches tours into the gator-filled St. Johns River in Christmas, Paratour teaches would-be pilots the finer points of strapping a huge fan to your back, hooking up to an overhead parasail and then flying over grazing pasture and swamp dotted with cows and swarms of alligators. Paragliding, as it's called, is a sport for people who want a little more control over their flight than is possible with parachuting, and for those who love "adventure sports" that require crazy investments in gear or lessons, resulting in ever more daring ways to hurt themselves. Despite the use of a gas-powered engine and fan, there is some athleticism involved in navigating. And you'll want to be in tip-top shape to wrestle one of the 14,000 80-toothed inhabitants on the ground below, should you need to perform a crash landing.
Best low-rent NASCAR-like experience
Orlando Speed World Dragway
19442 E. Colonial Drive, 407-568-2717; speedworlddragway.com
Drag racing may not be the sport of gentlemen, but it sure can be entertaining. True, there's a high redneck quotient, but the average race fan at Orlando Speed World Dragway is just your normal car- and horsepower-loving speed-freak. The racers are regular car guys – though there are some legends among them – who pimp out street cars with outrageous engines, roll cages and primo endurance parts. A true car-lovers track, you'll see a '72 Chevelle competing against an '03 Hyundai and all makes and models in between. There's your standard drag (two competitors race on a quarter-mile track) and stockcar racing, but you can also see races with flaming school buses, flame-spitting trucks and cars pulling boats or RV trailers. In the NHRA Super Pro drag racing series, as with almost all races here, drivers come from all over Central Florida. Street drags are scheduled every Wednesday and Friday night 6-10:30 p.m., and on Saturday there's bracket races with eliminations starting at 3:00 p.m.
Best excuse for an Irish Santa
Letters to Santa: Cookies and a Movie
Enzian Theater, 1300 S. Orlando Ave., Maitland, 407-629-0054; enzian.org
Falling squarely (and barely) under the "recreation" part of this category, it must be said that the Enzian consistently follows through with grand ideas, from Bond-inspired martini parties to this holiday morning for the kiddies. As a Looney Tunes cartoon was barely paid attention to on the big screen, little ones worked away at wish lists for a waiting-in-the-wings Santa … who happened to be Irish. And why not? Fueled by cookies and sugar plums, the kids swiftly bum-rushed the jolly elf while their parents snapped photos with their own cameras, thus sparing those in attendance from the freakishly long lines and freakier price packages of just such a photo at any of the city's malls around the holidays. Our wallets thank you.
STILL GREAT: Best of Orlando, 2003
14501 S. Orange Blossom Trail, 407-855-5496; gatorland.com
WE SAID THEN: It's been said that you're not a native unless you can make the gator mating call – a kind of "gulp gulp" noise – and for inspiration, there's no better place than the boardwalks around Gatorland's mood-enhanced Alligator Breeding Marsh at sunset during the warm-water breeding season. For a gone-wild experience, there's nothing like watching the randy devils back-rubbing and snout-smacking – four males to every female – just a few feet away from viewers. (A few seem to like an audience.) The marsh is but one of the gator fascinations at this Old-Florida-style attraction that mixes education with bloody sensation. The Gator Jumparoo makes a show out of leaping and snarling for chicken-carcass snacks. Best of all, Gatorland markets itself as "Orlando's Best Half Day Attraction," making no demands for a ridiculously exhausting full-day excursion to get your money's worth, which amounts to less than $20 per person.
WE SAY NOW: Not much has changed at Gatorland, including the less-than-$20 admission fee. You can still watch gators doing what they like to do (including getting it on), and now you can get a birds-eye view of the action, too – the attraction has added a "Screamin' Gator" zipline ride that takes you flying over the gators and crocs below.

How to Create a Facebook Business Page in 7 Steps
By Kelly Main on January 2, 2019 | How To, Marketing, Social Media Marketing | Comments (139)
A Facebook Business Page is a free opportunity for businesses to increase brand awareness and generate sales on Facebook. To create a Facebook Business Page, simply log into your personal Facebook account, click "Create a Page" from the drop-down menu, and then follow the steps to build out your business profile.
While learning how to create a basic Facebook Business Page is simple, it can be a challenge to set up your page optimally and manage it on an ongoing basis. Try using Fiverr to find a freelancer who can help you develop your Facebook Business Page, create custom content to engage potential customers, and maintain your Facebook page so you can focus on running your business. Click here to browse freelancers.
Visit Fiverr
Follow these 7 steps to learn how to create a Facebook business page:
1. Register for a Facebook Business Page
Facebook business pages are created using a personal Facebook account, so you'll need to first log in to your Facebook account. In the right-hand side of the blue toolbar, find and click the "Create" button.
Create a New Facebook Business Page
Select "Page" from the Menu
A drop-down list will appear after clicking "Create." Select the first option, "Page," to create your Facebook Business Page.
How to Create a Business Page from a Personal Facebook Page
Choose a Page Category
You will have the option between two page categories—a "Business or Brand" or "Community or Public Figure." Most for-profit businesses will want to choose Business or Brand.
Picking Your Facebook Business Page Category
2. Enter Your Business Information
Tell Facebook what you want the name of your business page to be. This should be the same as your actual business name. Then, choose a business category that best represents what your business offers. For example, a clothing brand could enter "Clothing," which will then pre-populate a list of related options for you to choose from.
Choose Page Name and Select Category for Your Business Page
3. Upload Your Profile Picture & Cover Photo
Next, choose a photo to upload as your business page profile picture. Businesses commonly use their logo as a profile picture, but you may use any photo that represents your business and your business' branding. Be sure that your image is clear and doesn't get cropped.
If you don't already have an image in mind that you'd like to use, or are in need of a new one, it's worth checking Fiverr. There you can find freelance experts who can design a professional profile picture for you, whether it's a logo another image, at an affordable price. Click here to browse freelancers.
Upload a Profile Picture to a Facebook Business Page
Next, consider uploading a cover photo. A cover photo is the background image that appears on your Facebook Business Page, similar to your personal Facebook account. You want your cover photo to be visually appealing and representative of your business. Your cover photo should be at least 400 pixels wide by 150 pixels tall. You can check out our list of Facebook page templates for your small business.
If you are having trouble finding a cover image, you can create one for free using Canva. It includes many Facebook cover templates that you can easily customize without any graphic design skills or knowledge. For more information, check out our guide on how to design a Facebook business page.
Upload a Cover Photo to a Facebook Business Page
4. Invite Friends to Like Your Page
Facebook will prompt you to invite your current Facebook friends from your personal account to like your new business page. Existing Facebook friends can provide a good initial base of likes for a new Facebook Business Page, so it is advised to go ahead and do this. Either click the pop-up prompt, or invite friends from your "…" button from your business page as illustrated below.
Invite Friends to Like a Facebook Business Page
5. Include Additional Business Details
In the left-hand menu, find and select "About." This is where you will input information that tells readers about your business, from ways to contact you to your products or menu. Enter all pertinent information, such as your website, hours, and contact information.
It's not uncommon for a business' Facebook page to rank higher in organic search than their website, given Facebook's domain authority. Keeping this in mind, it's important to complete all information, as it may be a potential customer's first point of reference for your business.
Business Information to Complete a Facebook Business Page
6. Add a Button to Your Page
After you have input all of your important information into your Facebook business page, you will want to add a button to your page, which will appear in the top right-hand of your business page below your cover photo. This acts as your Facebook page's call-to-action (CTA) and is free to use. Including a relevant one to your business can help generate more leads, and in return, increase sales. To do this, click the blue "+ Add a Button" option on the left-hand side of your page below your cover image.
Example of How to Add a Button to a Facebook Business Page
You can choose from the following types of buttons: Book with You, Contact You, Learn More, Shop, or Download. Select the button type that best suits your business. For example, a hair salon would likely want to use the Book with You option, whereas a brand selling products would find the Shop option a better fit.
Add a Button to a Facebook Business Page
7. Market Your Facebook Business Page by Being Active on Facebook
Creating a Facebook Business Page is only the first step to using Facebook marketing for your business. You will need to be active on Facebook in order to market your page and grow an audience. For example, you will not only want to be consistent in posting on your page, but you will also want to actively participate in relevant groups where your target audience is likely spending their time.

How to Grow Your Business with Your Facebook Business Page
For a Facebook business page to serve as an effective marketing channel for your business, you will need to market your page. You can do this by taking advantage of Facebook opportunities from Facebook Ads to getting your name out there by participating in relevant Facebook groups. For more information, you can also check out our guide to different types of Facebook ads.
Here are several way you can get started promoting your Facebook Business Page:
Link Your Facebook Business Page to Your Website
Be sure your Facebook business page links to your website. You can do this a number of ways, from including your URL in the About section to adding a button to your page that links to your site. You can also post content on your page with links to your website.
If you need help setting up these section, a company like Hibu can provide personalized service with a focus on maximizing your Facebook ROI. They're an official Facebook Marketing Partner, a designation only earned by tried-and-true companies that meet Facebook's highest standards. Click here to reach out to one of their representatives.
Once you create a Facebook business page, you're all set to advertise on Facebook. Facebook advertising is not only an affordable advertising platform where you only pay for the clicks your ad receives, but it is also unique because you can target an extremely specific audience through sophisticated ad targeting. Your ads are shown to precisely the people you need to reach, giving you the opportunity to land in front of the right people.
If you are producing great posts and content on your page, another option is to use Facebook Sponsored Posts, which is a form of advertising that will put your post in front of your target audience. It is a very easy and cost-effective way of having your Facebook posts reach users outside of your Facebook network.
Get Listed in Google's Organic Results
Ranking on the first page of Google search results can be difficult for small business websites. The good news is that having your business listed on Facebook (and other online directories like Yelp and Google My Business) increases your chance of your business ranking high in search results. To learn more, read our full guide on how to rank on Google.
Market Your Business Online for Free
If done right, you can also see results from marketing your Facebook page without having to pay a dime. You can do this by sharing content like videos, blog posts, and images that will garner your audience's attention. We have an article on how to get free Facebook likes that will teach you what types of posts will get you more fans. If you own a seasonal shop like a food truck or pop-up shop, and you don't have a separate business website, you can also use your Facebook page as your main online presence.
When people like your page, you can tell them what's new with your business, share interesting articles you think they would enjoy, and respond to their posts on your page. Remember to regularly respond to comments and questions from your followers and build a relationship with them. This is a great platform for a local business that relies on local patrons to keep their business booming.
Build Awareness Through Facebook Groups
Facebook groups can be a great opportunity for businesses to increase their exposure and build brand awareness. Find relevant Facebook groups and actively participate in them. For example, realtors will want to find groups related to real estate, and follow a special set of instructions appropriate for realtors on Facebook. Keep in mind that your participation should generally be with the goal of connecting with new people and helping others, not offering a sales pitch, so refrain from using it as a platform for selling your product or service.
How to Optimize Your Facebook Business Page
Optimization involves changing one element of your Facebook page at a time to test the performance of the change. For example, you may change different aspects of your business page from your profile picture or cover photo to the type of call-to-action button you use. It's beneficial to optimize this way because it leads to higher engagement, following, and ultimately, sales.
Optimization also help your Facebook business page in the short-term as users are notified when you update your profile, making your page appear in their news feed. Gauge performance by tracking likes, views, and interactions of the posts you've optimized. For example, if your previous profile picture had 82 likes and 12 comments, but your new one gets 140 likes and 23 comments in its first month, you can assume the newer image is better.
Another good way to do this is by using heatmap software to track how and where users engage on your Facebook business page. Hotjar is a great heatmap tool with a free forever plan that can be used to track what users do on your Facebook business page.
How Can I Get More Likes on My Facebook Business Page?
There are a number of ways to generate likes on your Facebook business page, from sharing great content to actively participating in Facebook groups. Learn more ways in our article on how to get more Facebook likes.
How Do I Get My Facebook Business Page Verified?
Getting a Facebook business page verified is simple. Go to "Settings" and click "General." Select "Page Visibility" and click "Edit." Choose the option to "Verify this Page." Enter a publicly-listed phone number for the business, as well as your country and language. Choose "Call Me Now" and Facebook will call your business' public number with a verification code. Enter that code into the screen and click "Continue" to complete the verification process.
How Can I Engage My Facebook Followers?
To start, make sure you are putting out consistently good content that is timely and relevant to your audience, and replying to comments and messages quickly. From there, home in on the best time to post, looking at engagement levels by days and times. Encourage comments by asking your audience questions in your posts, and incentivize post shares.
What Are the Top Tips for Marketing My Business on Facebook?
There are a number of great tips to keep in mind when using Facebook as a marketing channel for your business.

I have a Business page but how do I make it where people can recommend my page
Hi Dawn,
One way you can start with engaging people with your business page is to invite your friends to like and share your page.
We also have a great article on free facebook marketing.
Am I permitted to put photos with prices on my fb business page? It said something about selling for free on marketplace. I don't sell online as yet, only from local brick and mortar shop.
You can sell on Facebook for free by listing products — including images and prices — on your business page and in the Facebook marketplace. If you have your own website, you can also link your products for sale on your business page using the Facebook Shop feature. Here's a guide that shows you how that works. I hope this helps, good luck!

What do you mean by boost a post? What is the charge for that?
How much for advertisements?
Do you think $4800.00 is a lot for one years time to set up an FB page with pictures,& videos, & other things they may do
Boosted posts are regular Facebook posts that allow you to pay for increased and targeted audience reach. It's a type of paid advertising that appears more native in readers' Facebook feeds. Ads can appear in different sponsored presentations. There's really no set "right amount" for small business Facebook advertising, If you can craft very shareable content, you can garner more attention with little expense. However, boosted posts and ads can cost as little as $10 to $20 to reach a large audience, and can help you build an audience and reach targeted Facebook users faster than an organic approach. You really just have to get started with a conservative budget and test different types of posts to see what works best for you. Hope this helps, good luck!

Smoking and mental illness: A bibliometric analysis of research output over time
Alexandra P. Metse, John H. Wiggers, Paula M. Wye, Luke Wolfenden, Judith J. Prochaska, Emily A. Stockings, Jill Williams, Kerryn Ansell, Caitlin Fehily, Jenny A. Bowman
Robert Wood Johnson Medical School (RWJMS), Psychiatry
Introduction: The prevalence of smoking among persons with a mental illness has remained unchanged, being 2-3 times higher than the general population in high-income countries. Assessment of the volume and characteristics of research output over time can assist in identifying research priorities to promote progress within a field. The aim of this study was to undertake such an assessment in the field of smoking and mental illness. Methods: A descriptive repeat cross-sectional study was conducted of peer-reviewed publications in Medline and PsycINFO for the periods 1993-1995, 2003-2005, and 2013-2015. Publications were classified as data- or non-data-based; data-based publications were further categorized by study type, population, setting, and for intervention-focused publications by level of evidence and research translation phase. Results: Included were 547 articles published in 1993-1995 (n = 65), 2003-2005 (n = 153), and 2013-2015 (n = 329). The number and proportion of data-based publications significantly increased over time, although their focus remained predominantly descriptive (=83%); less than 14% of publications in any period had an intervention focus. The proportion of publications reporting on study populations with multiple diagnostic categories and recruiting from nonmental health settings, significantly increased from 1993-1995 to 2003-2005, however then plateaued by 2013-2015. The level of evidence provided by intervention-focused publications was suggested to increase over time, however there was no evident variation in translation phase. Conclusions: Research has increased over time to characterize smoking among those with a mental illness; however more is needed to inform the development and implementation of effective cessation interventions for this group. Implications: This is the first study to examine the volume and characteristics of research publications in the field of smoking and mental illness over time. The number of publications increased fivefold between 1993-1995 and 2013-2015. Between 1993-1995 and 2003-2005, progression was also indicated by increased: data-based publications, diagnostic diversity of samples, and variation in study settings; however further increases in such measures were not evident in 2013-2015. Notably, it continues to be the case that few intervention studies are undertaken. To achieve meaningful changes in the smoking prevalence of this group, a greater focus on research that assesses the effectiveness and implementation of tailored cessation interventions is required.

I have a annoying problem. I'm testing Vivaldi here on Xubuntu and it is set to be the default web browser. I already changed it in system preferences and nothing, it changes but the behavior is the same: Vivaldi keeps been the default to open links.
With multiple monitors, the Vivaldi menu appears on my second monitor rather than my first one, where I'd expect it to be.
Hello, I attempted to swap the Ctrl+N and Ctrl+T keybindings (so Ctrl N makes a new tab, why would I ever want a new window anyway?).
Anyhow, after doing so, not only does it not work, neither shortcut works now either.
hello. nice job with this great looking browser. but i have noticed a problem and i think i should report it.
I am developing some php codes on my windows operated computer. and when i type 'localhost/somefoldername' to the address bar, vivaldi googles it. i wanna go to this location, not google it. when i type the location exactly like 'localhost/somefoldername/index.php' it works well.
i dont know maybe it is a deliberate think and not a problem. but i thought that i should report.
using the number keys in the input fields also change the page zoom or switch me to another tab.
I confirm that the keys 7, 8, 9, 0 and - will zoom a page if the focus is not on a text box. This is quicker to use, but against the Ctrl+"0" / Ctrl+"-" / Ctrl+"+" convention that most users will be used too. These do not appear to be editable.
The same can be said for the number keys 1-4 controlling tab navigation this previous user stated. However, these can be changed.
Best of luck, and thanks.
If you open up Vivaldi's settings but close out the main browser first, and not the settings box you can never get the main browser to open again. Doesn't matter if you kill all tasks or try to open a new window or tab. Requires a full uninstall then re installation of the browser.
Same thing here, tried this on two machine now both Windows 7 32-bit and Windows 8.1 64-bit. Apart from that it's been relatively a smooth and fast browser, very impressed.
Confirned again here. Probably currently the biggest usability issue affecting the browser. Deleting the user data folder works if you don't want to fully un+reinstall. I don't know what file in the user data folder it is, but deleting all your data will work.
When open menu on two-monitors system menu opens on another monitor. It's uncomfortably.
So I was typing stuff in the wordpress new post area.
I typed in a number (2), and the tab switched. I know it's a Vivaldi feature (keyboard shortcuts, and I can change the keys), but it shouldn't happen when I'm typing stuff in a text editor in the browser.
Also, some other numbers (6, 7, 8, 9, 0, -) changes the "zoom" for the webpage too. I did not manage to find the settings to change this feature (or bug), so it's annoying and I need to type those numbers.
Opening the setting, while using two monitors, opens the settings window in the main (or other) monitor.
off topic: this topic can be fixed to post bugs or the Vivaldi Staff will create a subforum just for bugs?
This forum was created because Vivaldi didn't have a method set up for reporting bugs. It is not yet known if/when (probably when) Vivaldi will package bug reporting tools into the browser.
Hold Right Mouse Button + Press Left Mouse Button, will get you back like expected, but also opens the Right Mouse Button context menu after you release the Right Mouse Button, which is not expected.
–Open the browser settings chouse language, save language, after that I see message close the browser.
--I closed the browser but NOT settings window. Browser was closed but NOT setting window.
--Click on run Vivalid icon.
Result: I see opened settings window but NOT browser.
-- I ReInstall the Vivaldi, but result the same I see setting window. That is all.

The fillies often run well as seen in the Race History of the 2018 WATC Derby at Ascot on Saturday.
Like A Butterfly has been in great form before the 2018 WATC Derby (2400m) at Ascot on Saturday.
The WATC Derby is a classic race for three-year-olds conducted by the Western Australia Turf Club at Ascot racecourse in Perth.
Also known as the Western Australia Derby, the race was first run in 1888 and is one of Perth's most historic events.
The WATC Derby has been run under set weights for three-year-olds over the traditional classic distance of one and a half miles or 1 1⁄2 m since its inception.
From its inception the WATC Derby was run in the summer as part of the Perth Cup carnival until 1988 when it was moved to April. The race reverted to the summer in1993 but returned to an autumn date in 2002.
The WATC Derby is currently a Group 2 race, a status it has held since 2012. From 1979 until 1991 it was a Group One race, dropped to Group 2 in 1993 and 1994 and was again a Group One race from 1994 until 2011.
Only once has the WATC Derby not been run at Ascot when it was transferred to Belmont racecourse in 2005. In 1993, due to the changing schedule, the race was run twice in May and December.
The 2018 WATC Derby will be run over 1 1⁄2 m at Ascot for prizemoney of $400,000.
It comprises the second of the WA classic double after the running of the WA Oaks for fillies the previous week. Some 28 fillies have won the WATC Derby including 10 since 1994.
Many outstanding horses have won the WATC Derby, including several winners from leading interstate stables since the race became a viable target for horses traveling from the eastern states over the last 40 years.
Among the famous winners of the WATC Derby have been the champion Eurythmic. He won the WATC Derby in 1919 and went to win the 1920 Caulfield Cup, 1921 Sydney Cup and many weight-for-age races in Melbourne and Sydney.
Other notable winners of the WATC Derby include Easingwold, Hyperion, Raconteur, Nicopolis, Dayana, Asgard, Bottled Sunshine, Ngawyni, Stormy Rex, Mighty Kingdom, National Gallery, Joindre, Belele, Heroicity, Beaux Art, Crying Game, Plastered, Guyno, Grand Journey and Delicacy.
The last interstate trained winner of the WATC Derby was Markus Maximus (Peter Moody) in 2009.
Delicacy (2015) and Dreamaway (2011) are the most recent fillies to claim the WA Oaks/WATC Derby double. Arcadia Dream finished runner-up in the WA Oaks before winning the WATC Derby in 2016.
The leading jockey in WATC Derby history is Frank Moore with seven wins between 1953 and 1969. Bart Cummings trained four WATC Derby winners between 1972 and 1977.
The 2017 WATC Derby was won by Gatting from Very Tempting and Chill The Champers.

El Brossa Espai Escènic es un espacio teatral de Barcelona que abrió las puertas en el mes de diciembre de 1997. El pequeño teatro está vinculado estrechamente con el entorno del universo escénico y poético de Joan Brossa y de todas aquellas actividades, teatrales y parateatrales, que responden a los principios básicos de las vanguardias históricas y de la creación contemporánea. Sus fundadores y co-directores son el actor y director de escena Hermann Bonnín y el mago Hausson.

Tiene una capacidad para unos 60 espectadores y se encuentra ubicado en la calle de Allada Vermell, en pleno casco antiguo de Barcelona. Ocupa el mismo espacio que dejó el Teatro Tantarantana cuando éste se trasladó en 1996 a la calle de las Flores -núm. 22-, donde se encuentra actualmente.

Aunque por dimensiones y por trayectoria es una sala alternativa, la coherencia de su programación y la alta calidad de sus espectáculos le han situado en nivel absolutamente profesional. Dispone de una sociedad de amigos que lo apoyan y de una Escuela del Espectador, al tiempo que se convierte en un irradiador de cultura en su barrio gracias a múltiples actividades al margen del teatro estricto.

Read stories submitted by folks from all across America!
On and off, for four years, I have been attending a church called All Soul's UUC, in washington DC. I had always known that UU was very much involved in Civil Rights. One more reason to go there for someone such as myself.
Recently, I found out that there is an old projector in that church slowly gathering dust. That projector was used for the only non-segregated theater in DC. With the end of segragation, the theater clearly had no more 'raison d'etre'.
THis projector is part of US civil rights history, I am sad that it is not being refurbished. I am sad that no one is doing research on the history behing this theater.
I am sad that that neighborhood has bars and clubs, but no cultural center where people in the area can sit and watch movies together at a low cost, only for the sake of reviving a tradition that has been comatose for forty odd years. I am sad that this projector and the stories behind it will be forgotten in a few years.
And by writing these lines, I am hoping that someone will notice that somethings are worth refurbishing. That some traditions deserve to be brought back to life.
So, if you read this, please contact anyone who might be interested in preserving a stretch of history that reminds us that even in the days of segragation, there were places where people got together in joy and fraternity, irrespective of skin color.
By watching the Fillmore story I but only glanced at the TV and was scared of the thought of what if it will happen to Harlem and Washington Heights, the community in which I was raised most of my life. I have noticed that Harlem has changed as far as a community in which businesses like Starbucks has come into the scene or big department stores such as Old Navy has sprung out of no where. My concern is that by having these major department stores come into the community what will be the effect on the long run for those people that already live in the community? Will they be able to afford to live there or forced to relocate because of they're low source of income? Especially for those families who already have built they're memories and life in Harlem. Will they be forced to leave? I believe that it is really good when major businesses want to come into a community and invest. But when it starts affecting the people that already live there who cannot be able to afford to stay in they're neighborhood.
I operated a printing and publishing company called Jamerson Printing Company from 813 Laguna Street (between MacAllister & Fulton Sts) from February, 1961 through 1971, or until the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency (SFRDA) physically removed my papers/equipment to the dumps and sold my printing equipment for scrap metal.
While in business I provided printing materials and services to the Black American community via of Juneteenth, Black Panther Party, the Bulart Foundation, the Journal of Black Poetry (published by Joe Goncalves), the Off Center MultiCultural Center (330 Grove Street), The Flamingo Club and The Congo Club, The Wesley Johnson Pharmacies, many posters (including, Cleaver for President). etc. I am currently the chair of the Black Printers group called the Golden Gate Group (3Gs) and have produced on public access TV a program called "The Fillmore" monthly, 10-11 pm, on the first Monday of each month for some four years.
I remember growing up in Western Addition's lower-Haight during the 1970's-1980's, when it was a true community. The area wasn't nearly as prized as it is now, and it was widely ignored by the City. However, the community was alive and vibrant with working-class families. Through primarily African American, it was a welcoming mix of American families and individuals of diverse backgrounds: Chinese, Palestinian, white and Latino. Businesses were plentiful and I remember the Peacock Lounge (though too young to get in) that was owned by African American Masons, a local market that catered to the tastes of transplanted southern African Americans, an organic produce market, and other thriving businesses.
Unfortunately --like many of the working families and individuals who lived in the lower-Haight-- outrageous rents created by new landlords and greedy neighborhood landlords ran us out of our community and our City.
A third generation San Franciscan, and the product of Noe Valley and the Western Addition, and the 1980's ended much of San Francisco's idea of community.

Pete Singh
Passion, hard work, and a commitment to delivering great results run deep in the PSN Malaysia shop. With Pete Singh at the helm, there's no other way.
Pete was introduced to the world of commercial filmmaking …
[cont.] at the tender age of 20 as a doe-eyed freelance PA with Axis Films, a renowned production house in the 90s. He's never looked back.
During this time he produced projects for a number of foreign A-List film directors, creating numerous award-winning television commercials for local and international brands like Toyota, Hyundai, Cathay Pacific, Standard Chartered, HSBC, Nokia, and many more. He has also been pivotal at injecting fresh talent in to the industry by selecting young film directors looking for their big break.
Under his stewardship, the PSN Malaysia production house has collaborated on international film productions originating from the United States, Argentina, France, and India, shooting alongside celebrities such as Lewis Hamilton, Lionel Messi, Aamir Khan, and Naomi Watts, to name a few.

"From the get-go Pete and his team understood the creative, the budget and what we were aiming to achieve. They are fast to respond (even with the 7-hour time difference!), flexible, and really experienced working with global teams. They understood how we needed to work whilst ensuring the local ways of working were adhered to too (especially important during COVID)."
We Are Social Senior Producer Jennifer Lawlor
"We worked closely with their team on all aspects of production, from casting talent, hiring local crew and securing locations. The collaboration process was seamless and made the shoot go off without a hitch."
Matte Project Director of Production, River Myers
"We truly enjoyed filming with Pete and his team. They're very attentive, and they strive to come up with best ideas or solutions to make things happen. Can't wait for the next one!"
Mt. Melvil Executive Producer, Grace Kawahara
"With challenging briefs and tight deadlines they have always provided a great service. Having shot in 35 countries around the world the key areas of production for us are trust and quality of work. They've always delivered."
Locate Productions Ltd. Producer/Co-Owner, Angus Light
"I would work with Pete and his team again in a heartbeat (and have!). I first had the pleasure on this tightly budgeted film for Facebook's Workplace. They accommodated the ambition of the film and understood how it slotted into an overreaching project shot in multiple countries. Their talent behind the camera made the entire process seamless."

When preparing an estate plan on behalf of a client, an attorney will typically advise the client to prepare powers of attorney. These documents give someone the legal right to act on behalf of an individual who is unable to make their own financial decisions due to incapacity. However, when a client's family members live far away, or there are disputes in the family, appointing a person may not be easy. Since a power of attorney typically gives a person authority to make important financial decisions, it is important to work with someone who will handle your finances ethically.
Ordinary/General powers of attorney – can be limited or specific, and provides powers based on the time frame or specifics set out in the legal document. However, those powers do not extend beyond when the person becomes incapacitated or unable to communicate.
Durable powers of attorney authorizes the attorney-in-fact to continue acting on behalf of the person even if the person becomes incapacitated or unable to communicate.
As a professional appointment, the responsibility to handle financial affairs is one that must be taken very seriously. An attorney-in-fact has a fiduciary responsibility to make decisions based on what is best for the person who issued the power of attorney.
If you are in need of a licensed professional to manage your financial affairs, should you become unable, contact CB Fiduciary Services. CB Fiduciary Services has experience handling a broad range of financial matters for individuals and businesses.

Удо Рудольф Прокш (, псевдоним Серж Кирххофер (Serge Kirchhofer); 29 мая 1934, Росток — 27 июня 2001, Грац) — австрийский предприниматель, дизайнер и преступник. Главный обвиняемый в мошенничестве и массовом убийстве по делу «Луконы» 1977 года. Осуждён в 1992 году, умер в заключении в грацской тюрьме Карлау.

Биография
Удо Прокш родился в семье нацистов, остававшихся верными своим убеждениям и после Второй мировой войны. Прокш прослыл «анфан терибль» австрийского общества. Он считал себя аполитичным человеком, но заявлял, что ненавидит буржуазию, хотя вращался в высших кругах европейского общества.

Прокш учился в системе НАПОЛАС, в 1954—1958 годах — в Академии прикладного искусства на курсе архитектора Освальда Хердтля. Начиная с 1957 года работал дизайнером в компании Wilhelm Anger OHG, был известен под псевдонимом Серж Кирххофер и создал дизайн очков марок Serge Kirchhofer, Viennaline, Carrera и Porsche Design.

В 1969—1970 годах Прокш также прославился идеей вертикального захоронения в запаянных пластиковых трубах, чтобы тем самым дать импульс производителям пластмасс и решить проблему дефицита мест на кладбищах. В его «Обществе вертикальнозахороненных» состояли будущий мэр Вены Гельмут Цильк и первая супруга Прокша Плухар.

Другой проект Прокша — закрытая зона для настоящих мужских игр в войну, с боевым оружием и боеприпасами, чтобы мужчины могли ощутить жизнь во всей её полноте и реализовать, по убеждению Прокша, своё неистребимое желание убивать. Благодаря дружеским связям с министром обороны Карлом Лютгендорфом Прокшу удалось как-то даже пролететь над Веной в боевом самолёте.

Основанный Прокшем «Союз гражданских и военных» по разрешению министра неоднократно арендовал у вооружённых сил Австрии списанные самолёты и грузовые автомобили. Прокш на полигоне в тирольском Хохфильцене под надзором майора Ганса Эдельмайера несколько раз проводил тренировочные подрывы и получил доступ к взрывчатке из запасов австрийской армии.

В 1974 году Удо Прокш приобрёл знаменитое венское кафе «Демель». «Клуб 45» на первом этаже кафе «Демель» стал популярным местом встреч венского высшего общества.

«Лукона»

В 1976 году Прокш зафрахтовал грузовое судно «Лукона» якобы для транспортировки оборудования для дробления урановой руды, которое он застраховал на 212 млн австрийских шиллингов. В результате взрыва на борту «Лукона» затонула в Индийском океане 23 января 1977 года. Шесть человек погибло, ещё шесть членов экипажа чудом спаслись. Страховая компания отказалась выплачивать страховое возмещение из-за подозрений о фиктивной декларации груза. Благодаря связям в высших политических кругах Прокш в течение длительного времени тормозил следствие. До его ареста по обвинению в страховом мошенничестве вместе с партнёром Гансом Петером Даймлером дело дошло только 15 февраля 1985 года, но уже 28 февраля оба вышли на свободу. Благодаря журналистскому расследованию Геральда Фрайхофнера и Ганса Преттеребнера, выпустивших в декабре 1987 года книгу «Дело "Луконы"», и после бегства Прокша от следствия в начале 1988 года в Австрии разразился «скандал века», приведший к отставке председателя Национального совета Леопольда Граца и министра внутренних дел Карла Блехи, допустивших снятие ареста с Прокша. Удо Прокш скрывался в Азии, в Маниле сделал пластическую операцию, колесил по Европе и в конечном итоге 2 октября 1989 года с документами на имя Альфреда Земрада был арестован в венском аэропорту.

Команда глубоководных водолазов с применением робототехники обнаружила обломки «Луконы» на морском дне, снимки места взрыва подтверждали версию обвинения. Выяснилось, что вместо горнодробильного оборудования «Лукона» везла единственную в своём роде и никогда не эксплуатировавшуюся установку для экструзионной обработки труб центрального отопления, произведённую компанией Cincinnati Milacron. Прокш знал о её существовании, поскольку некоторое время работал на производителя, и приобрёл её спустя годы по цене металлолома. После одного из самых долгих в истории Второй Австрийской Республики судебных процессов Удо Прокш в 1992 году был приговорён к пожизненному лишению свободы за убийство шестерых человек и покушение на убийство ещё шестерых человек. Он умер в заключении от последствий операции по пересадке сердца и был похоронен на Хайлигенштадтском кладбище в Вене.

Личная жизнь
В 1962—1967 годах Прокш был женат на актрисе Бургтеатра Эрике Плухар. В этом браке родилась дочь Анна (1962—1999), умершая от приступа астмы. В 1967—1968 годах Прокш состоял в браке с правнучкой Рихарда Вагнера актрисой Дафной Вагнер, а с 1969 года — с Арианой Глац. В 1969 году Глац родила сына, которого усыновил Прокш. Этот ребёнок погиб в автокатастрофе в возрасте шести лет. От связи с Цецилией Райффершмидт-Краутхайм у Удо Прокша родились сын и дочь, помимо них есть ещё один внебрачный сын 1981 года рождения.

Among scars, I am the fresh wound.
The Lakota in me murmured to go sit beside the snaking bayou outside my window. To simply be. So I did. The grass was soft, itchy.
The waters, turned brown by the poisons pumped into them by the nearby petro-chemical plants, bled by me. An eye-achingly white egret swept gracefully over the rippling currents.
Its search was a hopeless one : a search for life in the waters of slow death.
Leaves, the bright colors of strangled life, drifted upon my shoulders. Like a trick of my melancholy, a voice of winter dreams spoke to my ears.
I flicked my eyes to the left. The wavering form of the Turquoise Woman sat beside me, her haunted face terrible and beautiful beyond any singing of it.
She whispered on the cool winds of Autumn.
"Man's words are dying, Roland. And without words, he is drying up within. His grasp of literature pries him out of his provincialism.
Estanatlehi's nose wrinkled as she glared at the poisonous plumes from distant smoke-stacks.
Looking at her features, fine yet otherworldly, I could believe long ago there had been a face that launched a thousand ships.
Estanatlehi's grew wet, and a flurry of snowflakes swirled from her eyes.
I reached out and held her cold, cold hand.
Yes, there is always hope!
Hi Roland .. I think there will be a dividing line between the educated, those that can read and those wanting to learn and then those that follow the crowd and then those that don't care at all ..
I've been pleasantly surprised by some kids here of 18 .. who've all done incredibly well in school and have got into University (well qualified results too) .. and I did wonder what FB etc would do to them ..
We are in interesting times - but I read when I was young .. but was never went to University or wanted to learn more ... now via my blog I'm catching up on years (many!) missed - so sometimes things turn out differently .. I bet no-one from my school years or later would think I'd be doing this - writing and educating myself.
So I think the future will be interesting and not completely hopeless ... I'm going to Oxford soon to listen to a cousin (81) lecture .. and I'll take the opportunity of asking how they'll research projects in the future etc ..
Very apt description of Twitter!
My favorite thing is to haunt the bookshelves of libraries. I no longer have a library card (costs over $100 to get one if you don't live in town).
My hope is that good authors are not in the past and children will addoringly gobble up their words and want more. And when they get older, interest will not fade.
What succinct prose, clearly spelling out your frustrations of the murdered words and lack of reading true classics from the ages.
I missed you during my blogfest.
Oh, Roland. I read what you just commented on my recent post. I'm so sorry you've been ill, and with a dead modem too. But sometimes I think a crashed modem is a blessing, especially if it gives you more time to write, in your case, such wonderful prose. And I hope you're feeling and doing much better now!
Thanks for agreeing about the hope. As long as there is breath in our bodies and light in our minds, there is hope.
Thanks for appreciating my thoughts on Twitter. John Locke (the eAuthor) would not approve, but then he used it like the insurance salesman he was, interested in gaining prospects not connecting with another kindred soul.
I was quite ill these past days. Still I thought of joining your blogfest. But my summer was spent in exile (still ongoing) from my oven apartment, trying to get someone, anyone, to read my books, and running rare blood to ill patients.
Not material for any epic sagas by Homer, and that's for sure. As some of my old students would have wailed, "BOOOOOOORING!"
Thanks for writing back. I've missed you during my exile (still ongoing unless I am at work, dashing off a fast comment or post.) Great luck with ghost writing. It can be so difficult.
Lets hope you're wrong about people not reading any more :) But I understand where you're coming from; I hear often enough the phrase "why read a story when you can watch it from your sofa". Makes me worry screenwriters will eventually be the only writers making money.
I hope you feel better soon, and can eventually return to your apartment.
Sounds like the book sales are not going too well, and I'm sorry to hear that. You worked so hard at publishing all your books, it must be frustrating. I worry about that too, with Scent coming out soon. What if no one buys the anthology? Or worse, skips right past my story in favor of more exciting writings . .
But you're still out there promoting your books, and I'm sure your sales will pick up now that summer is over and people will be getting back from vacations and slowing down on outdoor activities. I think summer is hard on all book sales.
I am the only reader in my department at the blood center. People today watch. They do not read. A part of humanity will shrivel up if that continues.
We live at the CrossRoads. And it is unclear where the road we choose will lead, no matter how good our intentions.
Beautifully said and painfully true. But, yes, there's still hope and good that comes from the "new era" as well.
This is why I was so pleased to participate in a literacy festival yesterday. All cities and towns should sponsor one.
Thank you so very much. You liking this post makes me feel as if I did not write in vain. Don't you sometimes feel as if you're playing to an empty cyber-house?

Q: Is there an example of zero-sum game that has a Nash equilibrium which is not subgame perfect? As a refinement of  Nash equilibrium, it is known that not all Nash equilibria are subgame perfect. But it seems to me in zero-sum games of perfect information, Nash equilibrium coincides with subgame perfect equilibrium. Is it true for all zero-sum games?

A: It is true that the set of Nash equilibrium and subgame-perfect equilibrium outcomes (distributions over terminal nodes) are equivalent for zero-sum games. However, the sets of equilibrium strategies need not be equivalent. Under subgame-perfect equilibrium, any off-equilibrium play is permitted.
Consider an extensive game $\Gamma$ and some subgame-pefect equilibrium strategies in which some subgame is reached with probability $0$. A Nash equilibrium strategy which induces the same outcome can be achieved by modifying some player's strategy to be non-credible in the subgame which is never reached along the equilibrium path.
Here is an example. Let player 1 move first. If 1 moves left, the game ends and payoffs are (5,-5). If player 1 moves right, player 2 moves. If player 2 moves left, payoffs are (3,-3) and if player moves right, payoffs are (2,-2).
Moving right is strictly dominated by left for player 1. The only NE and Subgame outcome is (5,-5) with probability 1. However, while (Left, Right) is the only subgame perfect strategy profile, (Left, Right) and (Left, Left) are Nash equilibrium strategies.

I am looking for a totally non toxic product to use in my home on a every few month basis. We live in the woods, so we see spiders, roaches, ants etc. Thank you.
We have a few options and I expect one will serve your needs adequately. Here are some suggestions.
The first would be the "strongest" option. It's federally exempt due to the fact that it uses food grade actives and is very safe for use around people and animals. ECO IC is a concentrate that can be used inside and outside the home and will no doubt control all the pests you're likely to encounter. It's not a pesticide but it does act like one in that it kills target insects and supplies a lengthy residual or residue that will remain active for some time.
The second option would be the BUG PATROL RTS. This is an organic spray that can't be used inside but instead is designed for use around the home. It's highly effective on tough to kill bugs like roaches and ants. By spraying once a quarter (every three months), you'd knock down the local insect population and in theory effectively reduce the odds of any coming inside. This approach is actually much more effective compared to waiting till you see them inside and then spraying where everyone lives. Getting bugs outside the home, before they get inside, is a better approach and this product is one of the best organic options when using this method.
The third option would be the HOUSE PLANT INSECT KILLER. Labeled for use inside the home, on house plants and pretty much anywhere, it's ready to spray (comes in a can) and is very handy to have for spot treating. Use as needed or every 2 months. It won't be the most cost effective material to use if you're house is large but it might have a place in your overall program since it can be used as much as needed, is organic and can be applied on any vegetable plant inside or out in the yard around the home.
Lastly, you could opt for a total non pesticide approach with the pure INSECT REPELLENT. This product is to be used outside only and is mostly used as a paint or stain additive. When used in this fashion, it can repel pests for 1-2 years including all the ones you listed above. When used as a spray, results won't be as long but you should still get 2-3 months of residual. This would be the most "green" option as it's not a pesticide and won't kill anything. Given the location of the home, I'm not sure this will prove effective enough for your needs but it might.

Celebrating the Chelsea partnership of Drogba and Anelka
JUVE VS GALA
Posted byadmin	 October 8, 2013
Juventus will be taking on Galatasaray, who have former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba in the ranks, in the group stages of the Champions league. The Italians definitely need three points from this fixture after only managing a draw against FC Copenhagen in the first group match. Defender Leonardo Bonucci has said that Drogba remains a major threat and Juventus should be wary of him. The former Chelsea striker won this competition almost single-handedly only in 2012. He says that Drogba will be very hard to stop if he is motivated and in form.
Drogba did not score in the 6-1 defeat suffered at the hands of Real Madrid. This defeat will also be a major motivational factor for the Turkish club, who have recently appointed Roberto Mancini is the new manager. The former Manchester City boss, though, does not have a great record in the Champions league. Juventus manager Antonio Conte made it a priority for Juventus to do well in Europe this season after managing to get knocked out at the quarter-final stage last season. The Italians have been the domestic champions for the last two years in succession.
The 26-year-old Italian international has also alluded to this fact ahead of this crunch match. Meanwhile, Madrid will be taking on Copenhagen in their group match.
"Drogba is certainly one of the best strikers in the world and has gone to Galatasaray after his experience in China, with the desire to keep surprising. He inspired Chelsea to Champions League glory and tomorrow we'll be up against a motivated striker who will want to do well. We should watch out for this Ivorian player because he could be dangerous," said Bonucci. More dropped points from this encounter will make it very tough for Juventus to qualify for the knockout stages of the competition.

WebMotif Launches Version 2.0 of WIPS Content Management Software
WebMotif Press Release: August 17, 2001
WebMotif releases major upgrade to the WIPS™ content management system.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia - April 26, 2001. With the launch of its newest client site, WebMotif Net Services Inc., has officially released version 2.0 of it's Web Integrated Publishing System™ (WIPS™), a content management software solution for small and medium sized businesses.
Catalyst Corporate Finance Lawyers, www.catalyst.com, is WebMotif's first customer for this new version of WebMotif's software application. Catalyst is a Vancouver based law firm specializing in high tech businesses and startups.
WIPS is a web based content management solution for companies that helps them manage and maintain their corporate websites without the need of a trained staff in web technologies. The software is as easy to use as a HotMail™ interface, but allows complete control of a website including all content, document distribution, user controls, forums, ecommerce options, extranet, intranet controls, and image and formatting controls that are unique in this class of application.
"With over five months of development time, we've released a major upgrade to our content management software that really moves us ahead of our competition," said Mark Prince, CEO and Creative director of WebMotif Net Services Inc. "WIPS is a content management package that has fully matured as a very robust and customizable solution for companies looking to manage and maintain their corporate websites with a serious eye on their return on investment. A typical WIPS installation will usually save a company money before the first year is out, since their own staff can manage and maintain their corporate website without any specific training."
WIPS' ability to be highly customized was a key selling point for Catalyst Corporate Finance Lawyers. "Our plan for our web site is to be able to distribute highly sensitive documents to select clients, and the WIPS application makes this extremely easy to do," said Warren Brown, a lawyer with the firm. "WebMotif's content solution for our company works perfectly. Many of the requirements we had for our website were matched perfectly by WIPS, and some things we didn't even consider are possible now, which makes the software all the more valuable."

The head of Johnson Memorial Health has stepped down. The health system's board of trustees says Larry Heydon has resigned as president and chief executive officer, effective immediately.
A reason for Heydon's departure was not given. In a statement provided to Inside INdiana Business, board chair Sandi Huddleston simply thanked Heydon for his years of service and wished him well in his future endeavors.
David Dunkle, vice president of medical affairs for Johnson Memorial, has been named interim CEO. A spokesperson for the health system says the board is working on a plan to begin the search for a permanent successor.
Our partners at the Daily Journal report Heydon served as president and CEO for more than a decade and previously served as vice president and chief financial officer for the health system.
