Over One-Third of Google Searches Are Local
Google, Marketing, SEO
For many small-to-medium businesses, appearing in search results around their local area is significantly more important than popping up in the results for someone halfway across the country.
This raises the question, though. How many of the countless searches made every day are actually locally based?
We now have the answer to that question thanks to a new tool released by LocalSEOGuide.com and Traject Data.
What Percent Of Searches Are Local?
Working together, the companies analyzed over 60 million U.S. search queries and found that over a third (approx. 36%) of all queries returned Google's local pack – indicating the search was location-based.
Perhaps the biggest surprise from the data is that locally-based searches have remained largely consistent throughout the year. Following an uptick in early 2020 (likely driven by the coronavirus pandemic), the rate stayed around 36% over the course of the year. The only significant exception came in September, where the data shows a significant decrease in locally-driven searches.
This data shows just how important it is for even brands that are strictly local to establish their brands online and optimize for search engines. Otherwise, you might be missing out on a big source of potential business.
Other Features In The Local Pack-O-Meter
Along with data on the appearance of local packs in Google search results, the Local Pack-O-Meter includes information on several other search features. These include:
"People Also Ask" Panels
Image Boxes
Shopping Boxes
Though the current form of the tool doesn't include ways to more selectively filter the information, there is plenty to take from the information for planning what search features you need to prioritize and which can be put on the back burner.

Google Explains How To Get Your Products Featured In Search
Advertising, Google, Marketing, News, SEO
If you are an online retailer, you are no doubt familiar with Google's wide array of special features built for online shopping. You are also probably aware of how confusing it can be to get included in these unique search results.
To help clarify this process and make it easier to get your products highlighted in Google's search results, the search engine recently revealed some technical tips and tricks for e-commerce sites.
Why It Takes Extra Work To Get In Google Shopping Results
The first question most business owners or site managers might have when they start trying to get their products included in Google Shopping results is "why do I have to do all this extra work?"
Google's whole thing is analyzing sites and automatically delivering that information in its search results, right? Why can't they just pull your product info when your pages get indexed?
The simple answer is that Google knows online retail changes very quickly and shoppers get very frustrated with out of date or inaccurate information. If this became a frequent problem, users would likely stop paying attention to Google's product-related search results.
While the search engine regularly re-indexes updated webpages, it can't guarantee pages will be indexed fast enough to ensure information is up-to-date for searchers.
Additionally, there are some features which online retailers tend to provide to help shoppers which can make things a little confusing for search engines to understand.
For example, Google says it still struggles with accurately telling the difference between these types of information:
Original Price vs. Discounted Price
Related Products vs. The Main Product Being Sold
Taxes or Shipping Costs vs. The Actual Product Price
This is why the search engine asks online retailers to help provide this information for Google Shopping results.
Now, let's get into the advice from Google Developer Advocate Alan Kent and how you can get your products into Google product showcases.
Two Ways To Give Google Your Product Data
In the latest Lightning Talks video, Kent discusses two different ways site managers can get their product information to Google.
The first method is by using structured data. This is essentially using special coding embedded into pages to provide Google with additional information typically not provided through regular site code or markup.
This is generally seen as the advanced approach because it requires significant knowledge of coding and the latest structured data techniques.
The other method covered by Kent is by directly providing product data through Google Merchant Center, which can be done with:
A feed of all product data manually submitted to the search engine.
An API developed to update products individually as changes are made on your site.
For more information, check out the guide provided by Google.
While providing product data to search engines is essential for appearing in these specific product-centric search results, the company emphasizes that these practices don't replace traditional SEO.
"Remember that SEO still matters for organic search. Make your product details, such as images and descriptions, appealing to your customers."
If you want to watch the full explanation from Kent, it is available below:

Almost 65% of Google Searches Don't Lead To A Website Visit
Advertising, Google, Marketing, PPC, SEO
Throughout 2020, approximately 65% of searches made on Google were "zero-click searches", meaning that the search never resulted in an actual website visit.
Zero-click searches have been steadily on the rise, reaching 50% in June 2019 according to a study published by online marketing expert Rand Fishkin and SimilarWeb.
The steep rise in these types of searches between January and December 2020 is particularly surprising because it was widely believed zero-click searches were largely driven by mobile users looking for quick-answers. Throughout 2020, however, most of us were less mobile than ever due to Covid restrictions, social distancing, and quarantines.
The findings of this latest report don't entirely disprove this theory, though. Mobile devices still saw the majority of zero-click Google searches. On desktop, less than half (46.5%) were zero-click searches, while more than three-fourths (77.2%) of searches from mobile devices did not result in a website visit.
Study Limitations
Fishkin acknowledges that his reports do come with a small caveat. Each analysis used different data sources and included different searching methods, which may explain some of the variance. Additionally, the newer study – which included data from over 5.1 trillion Google searches – had access to a significantly larger data pool compared to the approximately one billion searches used in the 2019 study.
"Nonetheless, it seems probable that if the previous panel were still available, it would show a similar trend of increasing click cannibalization by Google," Fishkin said in his analysis.
What This Means For Businesses
The most obvious takeaway from these findings is that people are increasingly finding the information they are looking for directly on the search results pages, rather than needing to visit a web-page for more in-depth information.
It also means that attempts to regulate Google are largely failing.
Many have criticized and even pursued legal action (with varying levels of success) against the search engine for abusing their access to information on websites by showing that information in "knowledge panels" on search results.
The argument is that Google is stealing copyrighted information and republishing it on their own site. Additionally, this practice could potentially create less reason for searchers to click on ads, meaning Google is contributing to falling click-through rates and making more money off of it.
Ultimately, Google is showing no signs of slowing down on its use of knowledge panels and direct answers within search results. To adjust to the rise of zero-click searches, brands should put more energy into optimizing their content to appear in knowledge panels (increasing your brand awareness) and diversify their web presence with social media activity to directly reach customers.

New Google My Business Tool Helps Manage Your Reviews
General, Google, Marketing, News
Google My Business is finally giving businesses a little more information and control over their reviews with a new tool available here.
Through the tool, business owners or managers can view reviews, submit a request to remove misleading or problematic reviews, and check the status of takedown requests for these reviews.
How To Use The New Google My Business Review Tool
Rather than being built into the Google My Business dashboard, the tool is available through the GMB Help Center.
To get started, simply sign into the Google account related to your business and go to the help page.
From there, select whether you want to check the status of a review or file a new report for a problematic review.
If you wish to submit a new takedown request, Google My Business will pull a list of your recent reviews which can be viewed and reported within the tool.
Source: Barry Schwartz
If you are simply checking the status of a past takedown request, the tool will show all your most recent requests along with information about the status of the request.
If you select a review, you can also get more in-depth information about the review and request. You can also submit an appeal from here if you believe a request has been improperly denied.
Only Available For Small Accounts
At this point, it appears the tool is only available for accounts with just a few Google My Business listings. Several SEO specialists who manage dozens or even hundreds of listings say they have received a message stating "Based on the number of Business Profiles you manage, this process is not available" when attempting to use the tool. It is unclear if or when GMB plans to expand the tool for larger accounts.

YouTube Updates Studio Mobile App and Introduces New Data Metrics
Marketing, News, Social Media Marketing, Video, YouTube
YouTube is expanding the amount of data available to video creators while rolling out an updated version of the YouTube Studio Mobile app.
Accompanying the release of the updated app, the video platform is offering video creators new information on traffic sources, returning viewers, and more in-depth data on how viewers are watching your content.
Below we are going to dig into the new metrics and app in-depth:
Expanded Viewer Data In YouTube Studio
Living Room Impressions
Before the end of the month, YouTube says it will start showing creators data on what it is calling "living room impressions" or views coming from TV-based sources like built-in TV apps, Rokus, or video game consoles.
Of course, YouTube has already been counting these streams within its broader metrics like watch time and total views. However, this allows you to see exactly how your viewers are engaging with your content and help optimize your videos for where most people are viewing them.
New or Returning Viewers
Though you have been able to see how many new subscribers you are getting since seemingly forever ago, YouTube has generally overlooked the group of viewers who keep returning to channels even if they aren't actually subscribed. In many ways, these viewers can be more valuable because they are actively searching out your content on a regular basis, rather than simply relying on it to pop up in their feed.
Now, YouTube is introducing a metric breaking down which viewers are new to your channel and who is returning – whether they are subscribed or not.
Not only does this provide a more accurate view of your channel's health and community engagement, it also helps you plan topics based on past viewer response.
Despite this data being available to the vast majority of creators, YouTube says it will not be present for copyrighted content owners or artistic channels.
Updates to YouTube Studio Mobile
Redesigned Real-Time Data Card
YouTube is updating its real-time analytics card in the Studio Mobile app analytics section to make it easier to see exactly how specific videos are performing in the moment. These changes include:
Thumbnails: The real-time card now displays thumbnails for individual videos.
Sorting: The real-time card now sorts videos by view count rather than the date videos were published.
Amount of videos: The card now shows up to 15 videos – ten more than the previous limit of five videos.
Updates to Tabs
Along with the new data, YouTube is redesigning its tabs in the Studio Mobile app with a larger focus on alignment. Following the update, all the most-used tabs are aligned, including audience, reach, engagement, overview, and revenue.
At the same time, the company has removed a few cards from these tabs, saying the cards were rarely used on mobile. All of these sections are still fully visible on desktop.

Are Your URLs Keeping Google From Indexing Your Pages?
In a Google Search Central SEO session recently, Google's John Mueller shed light on a way the search engine's systems can go astray – keeping pages on your site from being indexed and appearing in search.
Essentially the issue comes from Google's predictive approach to identifying duplicate content based on URL patterns, which has the potential to incorrectly identify duplicate content based on the URL alone.
Google uses the predictive system to increase the efficiency of its crawling and indexing of sites by skipping over content which is just a copy of another page. By leaving these pages out of the index, Google's engine has less chances of showing repetitious content in its search results and allows its indexing systems to reach other, more unique content more quickly.
Obviously the problem is that content creators could unintentionally trigger these predictive systems when publishing unique content on similar topics, leaving quality content out of the search engine.
John Mueller Explains How Google Could Misidentify Duplicate Content
In a response to a question from a user whose pages were not being indexed correctly, Mueller explained that Google uses multiple layers of filters to weed out duplicate content:
"What tends to happen on our side is we have multiple levels of trying to understand when there is duplicate content on a site. And one is when we look at the page's content directly and we kind of see, well, this page has this content, this page has different content, we should treat them as separate pages.
The other thing is kind of a broader predictive approach that we have where we look at the URL structure of a website where we see, well, in the past, when we've looked at URLs that look like this, we've seen they have the same content as URLs like this. And then we'll essentially learn that pattern and say, URLs that look like this are the same as URLs that look like this."
He also explained how these systems can sometimes go too far and Google could incorrectly filter out unique content based on URL patterns on a site:
"Even without looking at the individual URLs we can sometimes say, well, we'll save ourselves some crawling and indexing and just focus on these assumed or very likely duplication cases. And I have seen that happen with things like cities.
I have seen that happen with things like, I don't know, automobiles is another one where we saw that happen, where essentially our systems recognize that what you specify as a city name is something that is not so relevant for the actual URLs. And usually we learn that kind of pattern when a site provides a lot of the same content with alternate names."
How Can You Protect Your Site From This?
While Google's John Mueller wasn't able to provide a full-proof solution or prevention for this issue, he did offer some advice for sites that have been affected:
"So what I would try to do in a case like this is to see if you have this kind of situations where you have strong overlaps of content and to try to find ways to limit that as much as possible.
And that could be by using something like a rel canonical on the page and saying, well, this small city that is right outside the big city, I'll set the canonical to the big city because it shows exactly the same content.
So that really every URL that we crawl on your website and index, we can see, well, this URL and its content are unique and it's important for us to keep all of these URLs indexed.
Or we see clear information that this URL you know is supposed to be the same as this other one, you have maybe set up a redirect or you have a rel canonical set up there, and we can just focus on those main URLs and still understand that the city aspect there is critical for your individual pages."
It should be clarified that duplicate content or pages impacted by this problem will not hurt the overall SEO of your site. So, for example, having several pages tagged as being duplicate content won't prevent your home page from appearing for relevant searches.
Still, the issue has the potential to gradually decrease the efficiency of your SEO efforts, not to mention making it harder for people to find the valuable information you are providing.

Google Opens Hotel Booking Links To All For Free
Advertising, Google, Marketing, News
Google is making its Hotel Booking Links program available to all hotels and travel companies for free, as the company announced this week.
What Are Free Hotel Booking Links?
The new program, which was previously only available through the Hotel Ads system, essentially creates an entirely new organic list of hotels and travel agencies with available bookings below the existing paid results in relevant searches.
As the company said in the announcement:
"We're improving this experience by making it free for hotels and travel companies around the world to appear in hotel booking links, beginning this week on google.com/travel. With full access to a wider range of hotel prices, users will have a more comprehensive set of options as they research their trip and ultimately decide where to book."
Additionally, the search engine says it will continue to expand the free marketing opportunities within the Google Travel platform in the future:
"Over time, we'll continue building this open platform, so that all partners will have even more opportunities to highlight their information and help people book a flight, find a place to stay, or explore a new destination."
What's The Difference Between Free And Paid Hotel Booking Links?
The main distinction between the new program and the paid Hotel Booking Links program is obviously that paid links are essentially ads. They are bought through the Google Ads system.
However, this clear difference also influences how Google selects which hotels appear in the listings.
Paid Hotel Booking Links are ranked based on the traditional Google Ads ranking system, which considers several details including how much the advertiser is paying, how relevant the ad is, and the quality of the page you are sending users to.
The new free booking links, however, will be ranked using a system more similar to Google's search algorithm.
As the announcement explains:
"Hotel ads are paid links, ranked according to Google's ad auction, whereas free booking links are unpaid links, ranked according to their utility to users"
Where To Sign Up
If you'd like your hotel or travel company to appear in these new listings, all you have to do is click here to sign up.

Google My Business Will Now Tell You How People Find Your Listing
Google, Marketing, News, SEO
Google My Business is expanding its performance report for business listings with a new breakdown of how people are finding your listing.
The new analytics section details whether people are coming to your listing using either a mobile or desktop device, as well as if they found you through Google Search or Maps.
How To Find The New Report
To access the report for your listing, first sign in and select which location or business you are wanting to assess. Then, select the Insights tab on the left. On this page, you'll find the new performance reports available directly at the top.
Below, you can see an example of the report shared by Barry Schwartz from Search Engine Roundtable.
Within the performance report, you'll find a section explaining "How people discovered you."
On one side of the report, you'll see the "People who viewed your business profile" section, while the right column shows the specific searches being used to find your page.
Learning More About Device and Source Reports
To coincide with the launch of these reports, Google has updated its help documents to add a section explaining the "users who viewed your profile" data.
As the document explains:
"A user can be counted a limited number of times if they visit your Business Profile on multiple devices and platforms such as desktop or mobile and Google Maps or Google Search. Per breakdown device and platform, a user can only be counted once a day. Multiple daily visits aren't counted. "
There are also a few important details to keep in mind when viewing the report:
Since this metric represents the number of unique users, it may be lower than the number of views you find on Google My Business and in email notifications.
Since the metric focuses on views of the Business Profile, as opposed to overall views of the Business on Google, it may also be lower than the number of views you find on Google My Business and in email notifications.
Insights like these help with not only improving your listings and optimization to perform more effectively in search results. They can also help understand your customers and their specific needs or behaviors which may, in turn, allow you to provide better service for them.

Twitter Previews Subscription and Community Features
Marketing, News, Social Media Marketing
After months of rumors, Twitter has confirmed it is launching a subscription-like feature which allows users to pay for premium content from content creators or influencers on the platform.
The company previewed the new feature it is calling "Super Follow" at its investor-focused Analyst Day event last week, along with a few other new features which are coming to the platform soon.
What Is Twitter's "Super Follow"?
Super Follow will soon allow creators, influencers, and brands to monetize their tweets, similar to platforms like Patreon or YouTube Subscriptions.
"$4,99/month – Cancel anytime": Twitter arbeitet an einer "Super Follow"-Funktion, mit der man direkt auf der Plattform Geld verdienen kann. Hier sind die ersten Screenshots, via @TwitterIR: pic.twitter.com/hPiq27Ov5U
— Martin Hoffmann (@martinhoffmann) February 25, 2021
"Twitter is working on a "Super Follow" function that can be used to earn money directly on the platform. Here are the first screenshots"
For a monthly fee, Twitter users can sign up to get exclusive content and perks from a select creator, including:
A supporter badge
Access to a subscriber-only newsletter
Exclusive promotions and discounts
VIP community access
Unlike what you can find on sites like Patreon, Super Follow is a one-size-fits-all feature amd does not allow for separate tiers for fans or support.
While the specific revenue split is not clear, Twitter says creators will be able to earn money directly through Super Follow, making this a viable way to increase revenue from social media. This will likely also make Super Follow an attractive option for publishers hoping to find a new source of revenue other than digital advertising placements on their site.
Twitter Communities Take On Facebook Groups
Another upcoming feature highlighted at the Analyst Day event was the launch of Twitter Communities.
Twitter announces Communities, like Facebook Groups but on Twitter
(they've started working on it in the web app since at least few weeks ago) https://t.co/5YBmEfgsUn pic.twitter.com/JlkrZNjLBo
— Jane Manchun Wong (@wongmjane) February 25, 2021
Similar to Facebook Groups, Communities allows users to join together around common interests or topics.
Details about the feature are hard to come by, but images shared by those who attended the event show a conversation hub which may make discussions easier for larger communities.
Twitter plans to start testing something that looks *a lot* like groups. pic.twitter.com/iFw6OFegOP
— Karissa Bell (@karissabe) February 25, 2021
Otherwise, the layout, design, and features look distinctly familiar to anyone who has been active on Facebook Groups in the past few years.
Twitter's Goals for 2021 and Beyond
To close out the presentation, Twitter listed three specific goals to achieve in the future:
Double development velocity by the end of 2023, which means doubling the number of features shipped per employee that directly drive either mDAU (monetized daily active users) or revenue.
Reach at least 315 million mDAU in Q4 2023, which represents a ~20% compound annual growth rate from the base of 152 million mDAU reported in Q4 2019, which was the most recently reported mDAU when Twitter first announced this ambition in March of 2020.
At least double total annual revenue from $3.7 billion in 2020 to $7.5 billion or more in 2023.

A Bronze Star Power Point? Actually, not...
Drive-by Journalism at Its Worst
Mark Alexander · Mar. 14, 2013
"The best and only safe road to honor, glory, and true dignity is justice." –George Washington (1779)
In keeping with our publishing deadlines, every Tuesday morning I send notice of my topic for Thursday's column to our editorial team. This week, I sent notice that I was writing about "military award inflation," and particularly a story from reputable news sources about an Air Force chaplain, Lt. Col. Jon Trainer, who received a Bronze Star for a PowerPoint.
I first read this story under an inflammatory National Review Online headline, "Air Force Chaplain Awarded Bronze Star for PowerPoint Teaching Proper Sensitivity for the Koran." National Review is, usually, a trusted source for conservative commentary, but in this case, an NRO editor created his "cut and paste" commentary from a local paper, the Dayton Daily News, originally under the headline, "Local Chaplain Played Vital Role in War."
The Dayton paper did not report the basis for the Bronze Star award accurately, emphasizing LTC Trainer's PowerPoint instead of his service and leadership in Afghanistan, and then NRO repeated that error under a sensational headline. (Since when do outstanding conservative sites like NRO rely on a local newspaper to report a story accurately?)
By Wednesday afternoon, the NRO version had been picked up by thousands of news sites and blogs – from FrontPageMag to blogger Debbie Schlussel to Glenn Beck.
My original commentary angle was to use the "PowerPoint Bronze" story as a case in point of military award inflation, and then focus on the ill-conceived Distinguished Warfare Medal, proposed by former SecDef Leon Panetta, for drone operators and cyber warriors. The DWM is now rightly under reconsideration by the Department of Defense, after Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA), a Marine combat veteran of OIF and OEF, and other veterans in Congress, objected to the award because its order of precedence places it above the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Air Medal, and Air Force, Army and Navy/Marine Commendation Medals for valor.
Let me be clear: Drone operators and cyber warriors, like other rear-echelon warriors, most certainly deserve recognition for their dedication and skill in support of combat troops, but those awards should not have an order of precedence over awards for valor in combat. I have yet to meet any backfield warrior who would suggest otherwise.
Panetta's proposed order of precedence was completely unacceptable, and I thought the mindset that conjured up the DWM was demonstrably similar to that of military commanders who would honor a PowerPoint with a Bronze Medal, even though the latter clearly did not include a combat "V" for valor as defined by Executive Order 9419 (1944).
So I set about to draw a comparison.
Now, military award inflation is nothing new. Any combat vet can tell you outrageous stories of undeserved military awards and decorations, and they can cite the valorous warriors who should have received them instead. (An obvious case in point would be John Kerry, who virtually wrote his own Purple Heart and Silver Star citations.)
However, as I began my own research Tuesday, it quickly became apparent that the NRO story headline was appallingly misleading. Worse, the focus of other commentators who picked up the NRO story had devolved from legitimate and reasonable questions about the merits of this award to outright attacks on the character of the award recipient, LTC Trainer.
For example, Schlussel's commentary on this "Dhimmi Power Point" appeared under the heading, "[It's official: you can now earn a Bronze Star for Islamo-pandering | www.debbieschlussel.com/60199/air-force-chaplain-awarded-bronze-star-for-pro-koran-powerpoint-presentation/]." She indicted Trainer: "This schmuck in uniform doesn't care. He's also probably one of those left-wing Christians who hates Israel and loves Palestinian terrorists. It jibes with the rest of his now-bronzed BS."
Typical of the blogging blather was this missive: "The military is now awarding medals to servicemen who pander to Muslim sensitivities. So if you're in the military and you'd like a prestigious Bronze Star, just encourage your fellow soldiers to submit to Sharia."
This errant slandering of LTC Trainer gave a whole new meaning to the notion, "death by PowerPoint."
Needless to say, the focus of my column changed – not to defend the award – but to defend the Chaplain and set the record straight. I have seen the award recommendation. It is not based on a PowerPoint. I have seen the slide presentation. It does not constitute PC pandering to Islam.
I contacted LTC Jon Trainer Tuesday afternoon, something no other policy analysts or commentators had done, to discuss the matter with him directly. I also contacted field commanders in Afghanistan for comment on the PowerPoint he developed.
Here is the truth about Jon Trainer and his tour in Afghanistan.
Trainer is a 51-year old Christian pastor, heading the clergy at New Hope Bible Church in Pataskala, Ohio. He is married to a schoolteacher and they have two children. He has earned BA, MA and MDiv degrees, and is near completion of his DMin from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He also has earned an MS from the USAF Air University Air War College. In addition to his family and church life, Jon has other leadership roles in his community.
He is both conservative theologically and politically, as anyone could plainly determine from his Facebook page and Twitter feed. It is no small irony that he's a regular reader of National Review Online and has been a subscriber for years.
Trainer is also a citizen soldier.
He has served with the Ohio Air National Guard, as chaplain to the 251st Combat Communications Group in Springfield since 2000. In 2011, he volunteered for a tour in Afghanistan as the USFOR-A Training & Pastoral Care Chaplain, Command Staff in Kabul, where he used his considerable skill and intellect to assist countless warriors in theater with a wide range of problems, and to train other chaplains.
After the accidental destruction of Islamic religious materials by U.S. troops at Bagram Airfield in 2011, which led to greatly strained relations between the U.S. and Afghan government, Marine Gen. John Allen, commander of NATO forces in Afghanistan, requested that LTC Trainer prepare for U.S. service personnel a training orientation on Muslim religious articles.
That brief 20-slide PowerPoint, "Handling and Disposal of Islamic Religious Materials," was ordered by Gen. Allen to be distributed throughout the Afghan theater, and incorporated into the pre-deployment training orientation for incoming military and civilian personnel – those who would be operating side by side with Afghan Muslim soldiers and Islamic community leaders. By all accounts, understanding Islamic culture is critical to the successful seeding of democracy in an Islamic country, and Trainer's presentation hardly amounted to "a PowerPoint appeasement of our enemy" as some have framed it.
Among Trainer's responsibilities in Afghanistan, that PowerPoint was an insignificant contribution, except for the high-profile coverage of the Quran burnings, which put it and him in the crossfire. Fact is, Trainer should be recognized, first and foremost, for his "Ask, Care, Escort" suicide prevention curriculum for military personnel. According to his commander, Col. David Smith, Trainer "crafted outstanding programs on suicide prevention … which exponentially impacted tens of thousands of Service Members."
His pastoral counseling was invaluable. "Chaplain Trainer served with me as my pastor, counselor, comrade and prayer warrior," says Army LTC Todd Perkins. "He accepted my personal challenges as his priority and was always available to listen and counsel. His lessons, sermons and advice are a solid foundation for me to reference until and beyond the day that I return home to my family."
To condemn LTC Jon Trainer personally because he was recommended for a Bronze Star for meritorious service in the conduct of his duties in a theater of war is odious. Trainer didn't ask for the award, and given his clear Christian predisposition for humility, I am certain he never would have missed it.
Assassinating the character of a military chaplain – especially one who has served our country with integrity and has honored his oath "to Support and Defend" our Constitution – is inexcusable.
Moving forward, conservatives should vigorously protest the degradation of our Armed Forces capabilities and morale under Barack Hussein Obama, who has demonstrated great disdain for our military men and women as CINC. (The feeling is mutual.) He has undercut the DoD budget and undercut Military order by way of a plethora of PC doctrines.
As for military award inflation, this may be the only issue where Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel excels. He volunteered to join the Army and served in Vietnam as a sergeant with the 9th Infantry Division, where he earned the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry, two Purple Hearts, the Army Commendation Medal, and the Combat Infantryman Badge. Unlike his predecessor, Hagel will know how to address the Distinguished Warfare Medal's order of precedence.
Ultimately, the lesson here is that conservative commentators and news sites should, in the words of Ronald Reagan, "trust but verify" reports, even from reputable sources like NRO. We should reject sensationalist tabloid headlines, which have become too common on some self-proclaimed "conservative" websites. The net result of such tabloidism is to foment emotional discord and divert political capital down rat holes.
Obama and his leftist ilk are focused and determined. They are engaged in very serious threats to American Liberty, and we undermine our unified front to eradicate those threats when some get sidetracked by sensationalized "news" based too often on only a shred of substance. Of course, headlines generating web traffic are important to sites dependent upon ad revenue – a primary reason that The Patriot Post accepts no advertising and is donor supported.
Our best efforts notwithstanding, on rare occasions our editorial team has included information that was factually inaccurate. Fortunately, our readers are quick to let us know, and we are quick to correct those inaccuracies.
Endeavoring to correct the record and stop the character assassination of Jon Trainer, I devoted much of Wednesday morning writing to colleagues, editors of the more widely recognized conservative media outlets, encouraging them to avoid this story, or correct it if already published. I started with NRO's Editor Rich Lowry. On Wednesday afternoon, Lowry published a clarification, concluding, "I wanted to provide this fuller context and take the opportunity to salute Trainer for his service to our country."
We second that salute.

Open a window or use a fan in the bedroom to get the air moving over your skin. Air-conditioning or evaporative cooling will obviously help too, but this is a more expensive solution.
feet stick out from under your sheet or doona in the middle of the night. 'If you can get the temperature of your hands and feet right, then chances are you'll get to sleep quickly and stay asleep,' says Professor Bruck.
If you're using a sheet only, keep a lightweight doona nearby so it's easy find when your body temperature drops to its lowest, between 3am and 5am.
Dehydration and sunburn will both harm your sleep, so ensure you drink plenty of water through the day and follow the Slip, Slop, Slap sun protection guidelines.
To stop your bedroom getting too warm during the day, heavy curtains or blinds drawn all day can help keep your bedroom cooler.

Humans ought to have higher aspirations than a simple maximization of pleasure. To further illustrate this objection, Nozick presents the idea of an experience machine – a device that is able to simulate experiences that are indistinguishable from reality. This machine has knobs which regulate the intensity and duration of the pleasure they generate. Nozick then supposes that a dictator is given the option of connecting his subjects to experience machines with the pleasure intensity and duration turned to the maximum. According to Nozick, the dictator is obligated to connect his subjects to the experience machines under a utilitarian framework, as this would maximize pleasure (and therefore utility). Nozick claims that this result is intuitively wrong, as being connected to the machines would rob subjects of the things that make life worth living. He concludes that utilitarianism is therefore 'the doctrine of swine'. In fact, Nozick's experience machine argument is poorly formulated.
If we take the experience machine as Nozick constructs it (as a device delivering raw pleasure), its use does not in fact maximize utility. The experience of pleasure results from an increase in the level of particular neurotransmitters in the brain. A constant influx of these chemicals (as would be delivered by the experience machine) would disturb homeostasis, and neurons would respond by desensitizing. That is, the individual receiving the machine's raw pleasure would become less and less responsive to the point of satiation. This process is equivalent to the development of drug tolerance or the experience of an unpleasant odor slowly fading after prolonged exposure – as the brain becomes accustomed to a continued stimulus, its response diminishes. At this point of satiation, 'maximum pleasure' becomes the new norm for the subject, and utility drops to zero. Put simply, pleasure cannot exist without a less pleasurable point of reference. Some degree of pain may actually be necessary to maximize utility. Connecting individuals to this type of machine would be immoral under utilitarianism.

Job Stories From West Windsor, NJ
Yellowjackets invade mailbox in West Windsor, NJ
While performing a routine home protection service for a homeowner in West Windsor, NJ, I asked her if she had noticed any signs of insect or rodent infestations in or around her home. She mentioned to me that her son had gotten a "bee sting" while getting the mail, but she could not see any nests nearby. Stinging insects in or around mailboxes is obviously a hazard for both the homeowner and any family member who retrieves the mail not to mention the hardworking US Postal Service employees who work so hard delivering our mail! I wanted to inspect the area in and around the mailbox to be sure that no nests had formed even though it was getting late in the year for stinging insects.
Sure enough, during my inspection, I found a small yellow jacket nest developing inside the mailbox. I don't know what it is about mailboxes, but yellowjackets seem to be attracted to them. This was not the first time I've dealt with Yellowjackets or wasps in mailboxes, and other pest control technicians have seen the same problem. Yellowjackets are usually ground-nesters unlike paper wasps and baldfaced hornets that build their nests above ground. You'll see them building nests in knots at the base of trees and in small holes and rodent burrows in the ground, However, they can and do build nests in cracks and voids and the space inside a mailbox is, for the insects, a private secluded location. Unfortunately, mailboxes are accessed almost daily and yellowjackets, which are highly aggressive and territorial, will interpret the trespass as a threat to their nest — and these ornery insects won't hesitate to sting, and because their stingers don't have barbs, a single yellowjacket can deliver multiple painful stings. As far as I'm concerned, of all the stinging insects, yellowjackets are, by far, the most aggressive and deliver a super-painful sting. If you've ever been stung by a yellowjacket, it's an experience you won't soon forget.
This nest had to be treated and removed immediately! I treated the nest with a quick knockdown product that made the nest dormant almost immediately. I then safely removed and packaged the nest so I could take it with me off the property. Getting the mail should not be a risk-taking activity and I was glad that I could make the mailbox safe once again for this homeowner.

BULA, CAMARINES SUR – Buli-buli, Hulbot-hulbot, Liba-liba, Hulahoop, Zipper, Likisan, Patangko or Bira-bira are some of the modifications or local names attributed to Danish Seine or Modified Danish Seine. These boat seines considered as active gears consist primarily of a conical netting body, two long wings ,and a bag. An important component for the efficient catch of boat seines is the relatively long weighted ropes extending from the wings, which are used to encircle a large area. Many seine nets are very similar in design with trawl nets, but the wings are frequently longer than trawl nets.
Danish seining or anchor seining is an active demersal fishing technique which was invented in Denmark and in the first half of the century became one of the most important fishing gears used there. When this fishing method was brought to other countries including the Philippines, it was modified to local conditions and customs.
However, it was found out that the use of Danish Seines or Modified Danish Seines destroys marine habitats and other fishery resources and violates Section 97 of the Amended Fisheries Code (RA 10654). In 2013, the provision was strengthened thru issuance of Fisheries Administrative Order No. 246 banning the use of these gears in the Philippine Waters.
Another pivotal step was made to strengthen the fisheries order by including "mere possession" of these gears and/or its paraphernalia as a prima facie evidence that the fisherfolk or the person has committed this violation and would take effect on July 29, 2018. A prima facie evidence denotes that a person may be presumed to have committed an illegal act by mere possession of a prohibited item as an evidence.
DA Secretary Manny Piňol signed the FAO 246-1 as endorsed by the National Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council (NFARMC) chaired by the Undersecretary for Fisheries and concurrent National Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council.
Violation of Fisheries Code (R.A 10654). On July 25, 2018, joint operations of the BFAR, Philippine Coast Guard Tamban and Bantay Dagat Team of Tinambac, Camarines Sur apprehended 15 crew including the boat captain of FB Jelai. Photo grab from Nonus Enolvus Facebook post.
On July 25, 2018, joint operations of the BFAR, PCG Tamban and Bantay Dagat Team of Tinambac, Camarines Sur resulted in the apprehension of 15 crew including the boat captain of FB Jelai. During the conduct of seaborne operations, the team spotted FB Jelai fishing with the use of modified Danish seine within the municipal waters of Garchitorena and upon, apprehension the crew of FB Jelai cut the fishing gear purposely to dispose of the gear as evidence.
The fishing boat and gear were held in custody at PCG Tamban while the confiscated 14 tubs of assorted fish were distributed to charitable institutions. Boat captain and crew committed multiple violations of the Amended Fisheries Code (RA 10654) such as Sec. 86 (Unauthorized Fishing), Section 89 (Unreported Fishing), Sec. 90 (Unregulated Fishing), Sec. 93 (Use of Fine Mesh Net), Sec. 95 (Use of Active Gear in Municipal Waters, Bays and Other Fishery Managed Areas), Sec. 97 (Ban on Muro-ami, Other Methods and Gears Destructive to Coral Reefs and Other Marine Habitat), Sec. 113 (Commercial Fishing Vessel Operators Employing Unlicensed Fisherfolk, Fishworker or Crew) along with Fisheries Administrative Order No. 246 (Ban on the Operation of Danish Seine and Modified Danish Seine in the Philippine Waters). Corresponding administrative and criminal charges will be filed against the offenders.
BFAR Bicol Regional Director Dennis del Socorro cited that the enforcement of fishery law is now highly strengthened with more national government agencies getting involved in a collaborative effort to totally eradicate illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (IUUF) not only in the Bicol region but in the entire country. Del Socorro added that the success of the recent apprehensions of IUUF and other enforcement efforts were results of coastal communities giving information of violations as they become more aware of the condition of the fisheries resources. In the coming months, we want to view enforcement to be focused on prevention and promotion of compliance rather than oriented on apprehension. We now expect more compliance not only from our commercial fishers but also from the artisanal fisherfolk. Inclusive growth in the fisheries sector can only be achieved if the stakeholders of the three sub-sectors; the commercial, municipal and aquaculture, come up with a common goal of sustainable development.

Nancy has been with ACE since its founding in 1999 and has been competing in agility since 2000. She started training dogs in 1996.
Nancy spent many years working with both Lab Rescue and in Pet Assisted Therapy. Her efforts were focused on training in both arenas. She rehabilitated dogs' behavior so they could be placed into loving homes. Nancy also taught students how to teach their own dogs the many skills needed to excel as therapy dogs.
Nancy's first agility partner was a rock star Labrador named Tucker. He was very accomplished in both obedience and agility, competing for years at the highest level. Tucker won a national event in 2005!
Nancy's pack grew to include another rescued Labrador, Maggie, an Australian Shepherd named Chili, a Border Collie, named Lexi, and a Labrador named Jay. She made each of them into agility champions. Chili and Lexi, like Tucker, competed at multiple national events, landing Nancy on the podium twice!
Tucker, Maggie and Chili have all passed on, leaving Nancy's heart with Lexi and Jay.


It was the end of an era when the Russian MIR space station came crashing down to earth last year. What better way to remember another of mankind's achievements than by building your very own 1:144 replica.
If you are fed up building World War I planes or Spitfires (these seem to be all my nephew is bought for his birthday by older relatives) then Revell's space series is worth looking into. Every school boy is fascinated by space.
This kit represents a mid-difficulty level and shouldn't prove to taxing for hardened model makers. I haven't put together a kit like this for a number of years, and then it was only to help my nephew who seemed to be more clued up than me anyway.
This kit is fairly straight forward - no MFI-style instructions to get you frustrated. Everything is clear and concise.
I took my time completing this model and I think I did a pretty good job - I am actually quiet proud of the finished result.


We all remember FFXI, and how it just ruined MMO gaming for some of us. Well, chances are, some of those that game by App, may or may not be so impressed by FFXV. The graphics are stunning, the animation sequence is glorious, but we hope for the best, as Final Fantasy tries something beyond the console yet again!


I just reread my last post I posted here a year ago and I got some good advice. If you have anything more to add I'd appreciate it!
I'll try to answer your other questions later tonight...when baby is asleep.
I just saw this post. Interesting. Thank you!
Thank you for the suggestion. I've already tried a trainer recommended by the humane society. I'd prefer to find someone who is really experienced with aggression.
Unknown mix - german shepherd, possibly Australian shepherd in there, corgi was another breed that was suspected to be in the mix.
PRIN, anyone - Finding bath products! Help please!
Neither of those places are in Calgary (looked online). :sad: Nothing is ever in Calgary.
THANKS! I knew you'd be around at this time!!! :) I'm in Calgary...I haven't heard of that place. I'll have to look around for it.
I need that stuff! It sounds soooo good right now.
my dog attacked a small dog.
I never got around to finding the products that Prin recommended for doggy odor...now I really need it. PU! It's just general doggy odor but since I'm pregnant those odors are making me sick!
Please help!!! A seizure? Neurological?
Just wanted to bump this to see if anyone has any more info or advice?
Hi everyone! Just wondering if anyone can give me some tips on how to introduce the dog to baby? How do I go about that? I've still got some time.
Training to avoid the road?
Thank you for retyping (hate when that happens!)..interesting about the tuna/gas connection! The tuna water wasn't old I don't think. I know lead can cause seizures but I'm not sure about mercury.

Q: to clear doubt about basic definition in graph theory Can anybody help me in clearing the doubt about hierarchical product of graphs.
Its quite different from other graph products. Here is the screenshot and link how it is done. I know the rooted graph, but its applied here by using 0 in definition and in adjacency relation is out of my mind.  I will be thankful if a little hint is provided. Thanks a lot.
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166218X08001960

A: The hierarchical product of two graphs $A,B$ boils down to this: For each vertex in $B$ draw a small copy of $A$. Then, viewing these copies of $A$ as vertices connect these (represented by their root nodes) according to the edges in $B$.
Cf. the image of $K_2^3$: "Macroscopically" this is a $K_2$, an edge with two end points. If you "look closer" the end points themselves are copies of $K_2^2$, i.e. an edge between two vertices that - upon even closer inspection - turn out to be tiny $K_2$'s themselves.

A: Simirairly to this answer, you can benefit by thinking about the components of the product as dimensions. The difference is, that in Cartesian product you could walk arbitrarily as long as the graph would allow, while here, if you want to move at "bigger" coordinates, then you need to go to $0$ (the designated vertex, here marked with the color of the graph) at "smaller" coordinates. I don't know what I could say more besides the definition, so I adapted the example from the other answer (be aware, here the order matters).

I hope this helps $\ddot\smile$

A Good Bad Weather Day.
It's not often that we get real winter in Texas, but when we do, everything shuts down. Today is one of those days. The temperatures are in the mid-twenties. It rained last night before the freeze came, so the roads are iced over. I have icicles decorating my house, and now there's a dusting of snow on the ground. It's been a wonderful day.
After sleeping in a good three hours later than normal, I got up and got dressed. By that, I mean I put on sweatpants and my favorite Hood to Coast sweatshirt. I spent a fair amount of time at my favorite seat in the front room, reading and writing. Then I did some document review for work for a couple of hours. Now I'm taking a break before I get back to work.
I like this kind of productivity. I'm getting things done, but I'm also enjoying my coffee and hot chocolate. And I'm enjoying the cat on my lap and the birds fluttering around the feeder that I'm thankful I refilled yesterday.
The bird feeder is relatively new around these parts. We have been wanting one for a while, but I was timid about hanging one because my mom doesn't care much for birds. I didn't want her to be uncomfortable on my deck because of a feeder. But for Christmas, my parents received a beautiful owl made of bird seed. Mom gave it to me, and I'm so glad she did. Dave and I totally enjoyed it. It only lasted a couple of days, but we had so many sweet little visitors in that time. I especially enjoy the little guys with yellow chests. They are welcome here anytime.
After the owl was totally consumed, I mentioned to my dad that we were thinking about getting a feeder for real. Next thing I knew, he showed up at my house with a new feeder and some seed. Of course he did. That's my dad for you. And now we get lots of different birds at the feeder. I don't know their names, but they are beautiful, especially the red ones (which Dave tells me are cardinals) and the little guys with the yellow chests. I'm hopeful that as the weather improves, we can go sit on the porch while they feed. Right now, they fly away when we go out there, but maybe if we sit long enough, they will return while we are there.
Yesterday, I intentionally went out to fill the feeder while they were feeding. Of course they flew away as I approached, but I'm hopeful they watched what I was doing and that I planted a seed of being seen as a friendly provider. They did return pretty quickly after I went inside, so maybe. And Dave braved the cold just a little while ago to refill the feeder. He decided to put the feed on the railing of our deck too. They seem to like that.
The only bad thing about a day of weather is that I can't get a workout in. The gym, which is less than a half a mile away, is closed. The roads and trails are icy. And I don't have a set up at home. I used to keep a trainer in my bedroom when I lived here alone, but I've since removed it to make more space. I removed it after tripping on one of its legs and hurting my hip. I decided there wasn't enough room for it and that it wasn't really needed since we were getting out on the road so often. Today is one of those rare days that I would actually use the trainer. I supposed I could walk to the garage and get it but…no. I'll just sit here and write about not being able to workout.
I do love these days. There's a chance we'll have another one of them tomorrow. Is it wrong to hope for that? Maybe at least in the morning? Maybe if that happens, then I'll venture out to the garage just long enough to retrieve the trainer. Or maybe not. I'm pretty comfortable here with this little heater curled up on me. These are good days for sure.

Today I spent 7 long hours fixing this blog. One month ago we bought our own domain name and cut our ties with wordpress.com. They were great to us but we were ready to try some new things that you can only do if you have your own site.
Was I smoking crack? I believed this would be a walk in the park, super easy and just a matter of a download then an upload. DAMN was I wrong. Switching has not been easy and I know we have lost readers because of all the technical glitches. Quite honestly, it's been a pain in the a$$. Google doesn't crawl the sites often enough to deal with link issues like we are dealing with now. GRRRRRRRRR.
Well I'm new to all this and your great blog.It is a lot of hard work, but so worth the effortI will bookmark this and go back this leisurely weekend. Its a great looking blog.
Just had a thought and so thought I'd come back to ya…..have you two checked out tastespotting.com yet? Simply submit a few of your food photos and it will certainly draw traffic your way. HTH some.

North Carolina agency turns to body-worn camera system from VIEVU, Motorola Solutions
Written by Donny Jackson
Officers in the sheriff's department in Buncombe County, N.C.—a jurisdiction that includes the city of Asheville—are scheduled to begin using body-worn camera system from VIEVU and Motorola Solutions early next year to record the agency's interactions with the public, according to Buncombe County Sheriff Van Duncan.
"It's going to be a very positive thing for us," Duncan said during an interview with IWCE's Urgent Communications. "It was well-received by the public and by the media.
"I think [body-worn cameras are] where this profession is going. I think, because the technology has become small enough to carry with you everywhere, is very effective and—at the same time—the cost is getting very affordable, I think you're going to see it be more of the norm, rather than the exception."
In addition, the notion of body-worn cameras largely has been supported by the personnel that will wear the video gear, Duncan said. While there was some concern that officers might consider the body-worn cameras to be intrusive, most have accepted the idea of having video of public interaction as a form of legal protection—more than 90% of complaints are dropped against law-enforcement agencies are dropped after viewing video from body-worn cameras, he said.
"I was expecting a little bit of pushback from some of our folks, just because of the whole thing around change," Duncan said. "If you look at the personality types of most law-enforcement officers, … they are not the type that accept change a whole lot. They are very structured and don't like a lot of change.
"But I'm very pleasantly surprised that most of them see it as a real tool and as a safety tool, as well."
Buncombe County has been exploring the use of capturing public interactions on video for several years, but in-car cameras were expensive and provided limited benefit—about 80-90% of public interactions for most personnel occur away from a vehicle, Duncan said. About three years ago, the county considered body-worn cameras that doubled as speaker microphones, but officials deemed the video quality to be lacking, he said.
When a Motorola Solutions representative presented the VIEVU body-worn camera system, Buncombe County officials quickly were convinced to purchase the video solution, Duncan said.
"Their salesperson brought the VIEVU camera, and I said, 'Wow,'" he said. "It's small, easy to operate and easy for the officer to attach to the uniform. In addition, the video quality was extremely good."

Q: Create a dynamic grid depending on my data source with mvvm Do you know if this is possible and if so how to do it?
I have a set of data which will be created at runtime in my view model. Now I want to present these data to the user in a grid which automatically creates columns and rows depending on the number of data items in my data source.
When the window is created it should not generate it all over again - just let it be static as I think that is easiest.
my data source is a class containing a filepath, file name and an image.
Is it possible?

A: Yes it is possible. You can use Microsoft DataGrid. It has a lot of feature that can be helpful (automatic columns generation, virtualization, columns sorting and reordering...)
Alternatively, you can use a simple ItemsControl and set its ItemsPanel as a Grid, and then implement a custom logic to generate Rows/Columns when ItemsSource changes.

How to protect children from inappropriate content and comments on Instagram
Many parents have already put up with the fact that children actively maintain pages on social networks and spend a lot of time on the Internet. However, the feeling of anxiety remains - no one knows what dubious resources a child can stumble on the Web. The Spam Guard app was created to hide suspicious content from a child on Instagram.
Spam Guard offers several individual features that can be used in a complex, or one at a time. The choice of the necessary procedure depends on problems that the account is facing, and on your objectives. This application will be useful not only to parents and children, but also to all other people, including bloggers, marketers, managers.
So, using Spam Guard, you can do the following:
Cleaning up bots.
Bots place advertisements or links to dubious resources, and send out identical letters. The bot cleaning feature will remove all fake followers, saving you from intrusive spam.
Clearing commercial accounts.
These pages advertise in comments on posts. The persistence of sellers not only clogs the child's account with unnecessary information, but can also influence him in favor of buying unnecessary goods.
Spam Defender.
It constantly monitors the profile and automatically removes all suspicious comments. Eliminates the need to do this manually, the user doesn't even have time to see ads or doubtful captions.
Protection against foreigners.
You can disable the ability to leave foreign comments on your child's page or prevent foreigners like Arabs or Chinese from subscribing to it.
Full account cleanup.
This function involves the execution of all other options at a time.
In addition to the above features, using Spam Guard you can remove non-reciprocal and inactive followers.
In addition to its wide functionality, Spam Guard app has several other convenient solutions. So, for example, you can use it from any device. And it doesn't matter which gadget a child uses to open Instagram - the cleaning is done through a personal account with a link to it. This means that a parent can clean up his child's page from unwanted comments and followers from anywhere in the world.
A big plus of this service is the ability to connect several accounts at once. That is, parents can use it to clean their profiles and child's account at the same time.
Convenience of work lies in the fact that the start of cleaning is performed in just a few clicks. After fulfilling the request to clear a certain type of spam or completely filter your account, you can exit the browser. The service will perform all necessary actions on its own.
In a fully automated mode, the program can delete also the necessary subscriptions. Thus, even parents, who "settled" on Instagram for the sake of monitoring their children publications, may be left out of the box when clearing inactive accounts. Indeed, this category includes all those followers who over the past 30 days haven't left a single comment on the page and haven't put a single like.
To avoid this situation, there is a created list of exceptions. With its help, you can enter those accounts that can't be deleted in any case. These are the most important followers, among which may be inactive, non-reciprocal, and suspicious for the system. By putting yourself on the exclusion list, you don't have to worry about the sudden deletion of your child from the subscriptions. And adding a child's best friends to the white list will help to avoid complaints about the use of this application.
Spam Guard, like most similar products, is paid. Payment is made in the form of a subscription for a specified period. It's convenient to subscribe for a long time, because it's more profitable, and the child won't stop using Instagram.
To understand whether there is a need for this app, and to know its functionality, you can use it in test mode. At no cost! The creators of the application offer to analyze 30% of followers to demonstrate the service capabilities.
Test cleaning can only be done once. After that, if everything suits you, you need to subscribe. The price is set individually for each account.
