SEO From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of affecting the online visibility of a website or a web page in a web search engines unpaid results—often referred to as `natural`, `organic`, or `earned` results. In general, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page), and more frequently a website appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engines users; these visitors can then be converted into customers. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, video search, academic search, news search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. SEO differs from local search engine optimization in that the latter is focused on optimizing a business online presence so that its web pages will be displayed by search engines when a user enters a local search for its products or services. The former instead is more focused on national or international searches. and ADS Publishers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Advertising is an audio or visual form of marketing communication that employs an openly sponsored, non-personal message to promote or sell a product, service or idea. Sponsors of advertising are often businesses wishing to promote their products or services. Advertising is differentiated from public relations in that an advertiser pays for and has control over the message. It differs from personal selling in that the message is non-personal, i.e., not directed to a particular individual. Advertising is communicated through various mass media, including traditional media such as newspapers, magazines, television, radio, outdoor advertising or direct mail; and new media such as search results, blogs, social media, websites or text messages. The actual presentation of the message in a medium is referred to as an advertisement or `ad` for short.
Commercial ads often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through `branding`, which associates a product name or image with certain qualities in the minds of consumers. On the other hand, ads that intend to elicit an immediate sale are known as direct-response advertising. Non-commercial entities that advertise more than consumer products or services include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and governmental agencies. Non-profit organizations may use free modes of persuasion, such as a public service announcement. Advertising may also be used to reassure employees or shareholders that a company is viable or successful., wall of links.

6 Reasons To Buy The Pebble Time Steel Instead Of The Apple Watch

Apple Watch vs. Pebble Time Steel

Nicole Billitz
6 Reasons To Buy The Pebble Time Steel Instead Of The Apple Watch

Last week, Pebble announced their newest smartwatch, the Pebble Time. Within a half hour, the company managed to meet their Kickstarter goal of $500,000. To date, they have collected over $16 million dollars and still have 22 days to go. In addition to Pebble Time, the company introduced Pebble Time Steel, which will serve as the company’s premium wristband, and the major source of competition to the Apple Watch.

Clearly I’m not alone in this thought. Pebble seemingly designed their “photo of early production unit” from an incredibly similar display that is currently sitting on Apple’s landing page. Both have similar colored leather straps, with the same gold finish on the case and buckle, and both in an even similar pose. Despite how similar they look, though, we have quite a few differences as well.

Apple +

1. Apple Watch arrives this April, and Pebble Steel won’t come until July

2. Apple is boasting a pretty competitive 34 different watch designs, with 6 among the designs that will offer 18-karat gold. Additionally, many of the more premium designs will feature sapphire crystal glass for protection. Have your choice between 38m or 42mm.

3. AMOLED touchscreen, with Retina display and a high pixel density.

Pebble Time Steel+

1. With a stainless steel case and buttons on the side, its solid and multifunctional. Leather and metal straps are delivered with the watch, which means you can dress it up or dress it down.

2. Brand new e-paper display, which will support 64 colors at 30 frames per second and will never turn off.

3. The newest Pebble is offering a 10 day battery charge, whereas Apple CEO Tim Cook stated that the Apple Watch would need to be charged daily, although it is still officially unconfirmed.

4. Swim and frolic to your hearts content. This smartwatch received a waterproof rating of 3ATM, which means you can take the watch down to 30 meters in the water and still be golden. Apple Watch, unfortunately, will likely only be showerproof, but not waterproof, although that is still unconfirmed.

5. Pebble also has the advantage in terms of compatibility. Pebble has always allowed for iOS and Android, which allows the user to switch between the phones. Pebble will be compatible to iPhone 4s and above, and Android 4.0 and above. Apple, of course, only works with an iPhone 5 and later.

6. Pebble Time Steel is currently available on Kickstarter for a reduced price of $250, but will be $299 once it hits retail shelves. Apple, on the other hand, starts at $350 for their Sport version that has Ion-X glass instead of sapphire.

The Amount of Wine Teachers Need To Drink To Survive Every School Year Situation

4 minute Read

Teachers Guide

Back to school season is upon us and with it comes a lot of stress. Last week we broke down for parents just how much wine they’d most likely need to consume this year for every possible back to school situation, but now it’s time to pour some out for the people who are the saints of the school year, that’s right, the teachers. These people deal with your kids all year long, in fact, we might go as far as to say that teachers have it just as bad if not worse than the parents. So put the apples aside, make some room in the mini fridge under the desk, and get ready to take notes. Here is our guide for the amount of wine you need to survive every back to school situation. We can’t thank you enough for committing your life to educating children.

The First Day of School – Riesling

Drinking on the first day of schoolLook at all the new students and how cute they look in the outfits they definitely didn’t pick out for themselves. They’re sweet, shy, and ready to learn — hopefully. Sip a Riesling as sweet as the apple someone just gave you. Because students still give apples to teachers.

“Why is Swimmy floating?” – Zinfandel

Why is the fish dead?Stop what you’re doing, play Cher’s “If I Could Turn Back Time,” and remember to never get a classroom pet again. These children don’t need responsibility. These children need to learn how to cover their mouth when they cough and how to do mental math. Let their fifth grade teacher handle the pet drama while you pour out a nice glass of Zinfandel for Swimmy.

Drowning In Lesson Plans – Pinot Grigio

Drowning in lesson plans.How the hell are you expected to plan three weeks of learning when you can’t even plan what you’re eating for dinner tonight? This calls for a perfectly chilled Pinot Grigio, your favorite blanket, and a clean Pinterest board for some quality brainstorming. Just don’t get lost pinning more of those Crock-Pot recipes.

The Open-House Pre Game – Chardonnay

Open House Pregame!The parents are coming. Time to make sure all of the books are in order and that you have something to wear since you haven’t done a wash in weeks. Chardonnay will allow you to channel your inner parent and get you through this rough time. Remember to always say, “Yes, I know the name of your child and where they sit in my class,” along with “No, let’s not talk about their grade tonight.”

The Three Day Weekend – Prosecco

Three Day Weekend!Why isn’t every weekend a three-day weekend? Now instead of two days full of grading papers and planning for the week ahead, you have THREE days to grade papers and plan for the week ahead. Definitely take a break on Sunday to pop open some Prosecco for the perfect boozy brunch and pray that the children will be ready to learn when Tuesday rolls around.

The Post-Three Day Weekend – Malbec

The aftermath of no school on MondayNow we know why every weekend isn’t a three-day weekend. Seriously, how do these kids magically forget everything after an extra day off. Before you start rewriting your whole lesson plan, pull out a Malbec from your wine rack and remember that you love your job and that this is just a bump in the road.

Is That Gum On The Desk? – Merlot

Gum everywhereWhy do people still do this? The students know they aren’t supposed to have gum, but even if they were going to chew it, why not just throw it away in the trash can three feet away from them. Merlot is the wine to get you through scraping the gum off the bottoms of these desks. Better yet, make the perpetrators do it themselves after they get served with a detention.

Detention For Two – Sauvignon Blanc

Detention...In the game of detention, nobody wins. This was their time to run around and spend all of that energy at recess, and this was your time to breathe, go to the bathroom, and gossip with the other teachers. Let the crisp Sauvignon Blanc boost your mood and get you through the next thirty minutes.

Parent Teacher Conference – Syrah

Parent Teacher ConferenceObviously nobody wants to spend their evening informing a parent that their child is dropping F-Bombs in class. Sure, their child would never do such a thing, and of course they probably heard the word from their father. Let’s just open a Syrah, compliment each other’s sweaters, and make sure this doesn’t happen again.

Professional Development Training – Rioja

A lecture to inform teachers they shouldn’t lecture their students? I see no flaws in this plan. Thankfully, you managed to find a substitute in time for you to sit in a room and do awkward team bonding. During the lunch break, get together with your fellow educators and take a trip to Spain with a nice Rioja.

Bad Note From The Substitute – Cabernet Sauvignon

Substitute bad noteThose students had one job. You left them Bill Nye. You told them all they had to do was follow along and answer questions on a worksheet. YOU EVEN INFORMED THEM IT WAS A COMPLETION GRADE. They had to go and throw things across the room and spend all of class taking Instagram selfies. Move over coffee, this is a job for Cabernet Sauvignon. Hell hath no fury for the day to come.

“I Can See You Texting” – Pinot Noir

TextingSmartphones killed the classroom star. No, Julie doesn’t need to text the “dream boat” she met in Biology because they’re both 13 and should be paying attention so they can go to college and have a career. Embrace the romance and sip on some Pinot Noir as you bring her iPhone (why does she have an iPhone anyway?) to the principal’s office. And no, her older sister can’t come pick it up so her parents don’t find out.

The Field Trip – Rosé

Field trips, no fun for teachers.A blessing and a curse with a gift shop hat on top. Great for getting kids excited about leaving the classroom. Horrible for letting the rowdy students dare each other to jump in the lion exhibit at the zoo. Gather the other teachers and pour out some rosé before the kids get on the bus. If anyone asks, it’s that passion tea from Starbucks.

The End of the Year Party – Sangria

Summer is finally here!Just two more hours and this ship has sailed. Now that the final grades are in and the students are on a brownie-bite sugar high, it’s time for you and the other teachers on your hall to let loose. Set up your big kid punch in the workroom and celebrate being another year closer to tenure. You earned it.

, ,

Teachers need (a lot of) wine to survive the school year. See just how much wine they need to make it through every situation now!

Sequester This

In The Road to Wigan Pier, George Orwell said that while he wasn’t a manual laborer of any sort, he figured he could pass for a poor gardener or a “tenth-rate farm hand” if he had to. But, while he thought he could work the fields, he knew he couldn’t work the mines. “By no conceivable amount of effort or training could I become a coal-miner,” Orwell said, “the work would kill me in a few weeks.” This may very well have been true, but, had Orwell grown up in the sooty industrial squalor of Manchester or in the dirt poor hollers of Appalachia, I’d imagine he would have found a way to conceive of the necessary effort. There have always been and there will always be jobs that no one wants to do and there are two major ways of getting people to do them: paying a lot of money to folks who have a choice or paying a pittance to those who don’t. More often than not, and especially when unskilled labor is involved, employers go with option number two. The unspoken truth behind our current national dialogue concerning immigration policy is that much of America’s economy is built on the backs of unorganized, underpaid, undocumented immigrant labor. The profits made by big agribusiness and a hundred other industries are based off of the calculated exploitation of men, women and children who are in the United States illegally and have no bargaining leverage as a result. When your employer can threaten to send you on a slow boat to whatever developing nation you’re from it can be a little difficult to negotiate wage rates and advocate for benefits.

Little more than a century ago, the vast majority of America’s working landscape resembled that which undocumented workers are forced to endure today. Thankfully, a little something called the labor movement came along and bestowed upon us an wide assortment of populist goodies such as the weekend, the 40 hour work-week, collective bargaining rights and workforce safety laws. While I would never dare to impugn the good name of our corporate overseers today—they take care of that themselves—the ruling or business owning class in America has a long and storied history of wonton disregard for the lives, well beings and happiness of their workers. It is only due to the rough, plodding progress of organized labor in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that we the people managed to force them the owners to not take small children out of the classroom to toil in the factory. With that being said, it would have been impossible for the labor movement to have enjoyed this success without the oftentimes begrudging assistance of Federal and state governments.

Yep...That Sounds RIght

Yep…That Sounds RIght

One of the primary purposes of the federal government, and one of main reasons why conservatives despise most aspects of it, is to serve as an intermediary between businesses and the workers they employ. Without the passage and codification of rules and regulations clearly outlining the distinct rights of working Americans, big business would do everything short of burning their employees for fuel if it would raise their profit margin. Government is there to enforce these laws and to hold these businesses to task for any failures on their part to adhere to the law. If it was up to the free market, your Oscar Meyer wiener might have a thumb in it from some unfortunate bastard who got his hand too close to the industrial sized butcher’s saw at the slaughterhouse. Thankfully, our government’s Department of Labor provides funding to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to ensure that our nation’s abattoirs adhere to various guidelines to prevent someone’s thumb from getting lopped off on the job. And, if a worker does happen to lose an opposable digit in a slicing accident, the Department of Agriculture oversees the Food Safety & Inspection Service (FSIS) to see to it that no thumb or any other kind of undesirable meatstuff makes its way into those hot dogs.

That is, the Departments of Agriculture & Labor would usually carry out these tasks. With the $85 billion in automatic spending cuts resulting from sequestration going into effect, the abilities of many government organizations to perform their necessary duties have been compromised. According to a sequestration report from the Executive Office of the President’s Office of Management and Budget, there will be around $53 million in cuts to FSIS and $28 million in cuts to OSHA as a result of the sequester. Keep in mind, these cuts aren’t being made because of recommendations from an economic study saying that the benefits from cutting 5% of these two agencies outweigh the costs of losing the services they provide. These cuts were made with no point or purpose because Congress and the Executive Branch underestimated their own capacity for incompetence. Republicans and Democrats purposely made the sequestration cuts as indiscriminately harmful as possible to try and force themselves to compromise on a long term budget deal. Well, it didn’t work and now we’re chopping our nose off to spite our face.

Much of the talk in the news media concerning sequestration focuses on two topics: a) which political party or figure “won” the sequestration battle and, b) what effect the sequester will have on our nation’s already sluggish economy. With regards to the first topic, fuck you. As for the second, I believe it is important to analyze how these ridiculous spending cuts will effect our precarious economic recovery, but I also think that keying in on the broader picture misses the true damage of the sequester. Wall Street can dismiss the cuts as having a negligible impact on the economy, but what about the impact on the workers that make up that economy and the families they provide for? This is one case where it is the trees themselves, and not the forest as a whole, that truly matters.

Sequestration is expected to take $168 million from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration. That money represents tens of thousands of beds and treatment slots for the severely and persistently mentally ill and those of us suffering from the rigors of addiction and alcoholism. On top of that, FEMA is expected to lose $928 million in disaster relief funding, along with another $117 million in funding for state and local programs. As the east coast reels from the devastation of Super Storm Sandy and broad swaths of our nation are suffering from crippling drought, we’re going to cut more than a billion dollars from men, women and children who have had their lives washed away or dried up? Potentially worst of all, $333 million is being cut from the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. Low income mothers and their small children will have food snatched from their table because our representatives in Washington couldn’t do their damn job.

By no conceivable amount of effort or training could I become a politician. The work would kill my soul in a few weeks.

From Cervinia, you drive south passing Valtournenche and following the main road till Buisson where is the cableway going up to Chamois. Leave your car in the parking lot below the station and get a return ticket (3 €). Courses are every 30 minutes (at 8, 8.30, 9 etc.). The cableway lifts you 600 m. over Buisson to a sunny slope with a small village of about 100 people. You may get excellent sandwiches in the café just over the main square or getting some food for a picnic in the well stocked bazar. From the square a chairlift takes you to Lod Lake where you find a small restaurant (Gabriella). You have also two other chairlifts reaching the ridge over Cheneil: it’s a very easy way to reach the Clavalité sanctuary avoiding the walk (from Chamois, along the skiruns, or from Cheneil in the woods).

One year after…

leave a comment »

Exactly one year has passed since I wrote anything in these pages.

At the beginning the blog was supposed to be about SEO, SEM and other Internet marketing tips and tricks. I suddenly decided to change that thing. 2010 will be e very important yer for me. After I’ll pass my exam (in Romania we have special exam called BAC after 12 grades) I’m going to study Multimedia Design in Copenhagen.

This blog will be about my experience in a new world (from Romania to Denmark ), a new city (from Iasi to Copenhagen) and about all the good/bad things you need to know.

This is in fact a personal blog.

17 Ways To Tell He’s A True Gentleman

Article written by

In this day and age, true gentlemen are hard to find. Some guys are gentlemen out of some old-fashioned sexist ideology; some are only pretending to be chivalrous to enhance their chances of getting laid; and a precious few had mommas that raised them right.

Now, before we get into what a gentleman is, let’s take a quick refresher on what a gentleman is not. He’s not your servant, and he’s not your doormat. He doesn’t always have to agree with everything you say, and he’s allowed to get angry once in a while. A gentleman isn’t a teenager’s dream of Prince Charming. He’s a real man in the real world with real flaws and a real life of his own. But he always (or almost always) treats you with respect.

1. He’s on time.

A gentleman never keeps a woman waiting.

2. He comes to your door to pick you up.

Only a douche texts you from the car. C’mon. You know this.

3. He compliments you.

When he picks you up, you should expect some kind of comment on your appearance. Hopefully something besides “hot.”

4. He walks on the street side of the sidewalk.

Most people think that this is to protect the woman from getting hit or splashed by a car on the street, and maybe that’s true. But another reason is that in the old days, custom dictated that, when in the company of a man, proper ladies walked on the inside and prostitutes walked on the outside. Isn’t that nice that he doesn’t want people to think he’s with a hooker?

5. He opens the door for you.

This is a simple courtesy. Don’t make a big thing out of it.

6. He pulls your chair out for you.

Maybe this one’s a little antiquated, but like holding open the door, it’s just a nice gesture. If a guy does this, he’s really trying hard.

7. He doesn’t try to order for you.

Maybe in the “Mad Men” era, it was expected for a gentleman to order for his date, but this one really is sexist. It’s treating you like a child, and you don’t need that.

8. He asks you questions instead of talking about himself.

Some guys will try to sell themselves over dinner, talking about how much they work out, how much money they make, etc. A gentleman expresses interest in you.

9. He doesn’t try to get you drunk.

A less than subtle tactic of the not so gentlemanly is to keep the drinks coming. A gentleman isn’t interested in trying to get one or both of you plastered. That’s only about having a good time.

10. He’s polite to your server.

Dicks like to try to demonstrate their dominance by being assholes to servers. If the guy you’re with is a jerk to the people handling your food, he’s neither a gentleman, nor secure about himself.

11. He pays the check.

Clearly, this is a first date thing. A guy should always, always, always pay the bill on the first date. A few dates in, if he lets you pick up the tab, don’t hold it against him.

12. He pays attention to you.

Not just listening. He notices if you’re uncomfortable in your environment, gives you his jacket because he can tell you’re cold, that sort of thing. Not a lot of guys bother with this stuff.

13. He makes you feel good about yourself.

Whether he’s seeming to be interested in whatever the hell you’re babbling on about, or expressing admiration for your accomplishments or what you do for a living, if you feel a rise in your self-esteem around him, it’s because he’s doing something right.

14. He honors your boundaries.

Dating is a treacherous landscape, and a gentleman can deal with the possibility that you might not be ready to see him again right away. He won’t stalk you or call you a bitch, but don’t expect him to wait around, either.

15. He walks you to your door at the end of the night.

Yeah, he’s hoping for a kiss, or better yet, to be invited in, but if you offer him neither and he’s still polite, he’s the real thing.

16. He says goodbye if things are moving too fast.

News flash: guys like to get laid. But a gentleman doesn’t necessarily need to close the deal on the first date. If the smooching gets heated, he’ll probably call it off and go home. Always leave ‘em wanting more.

17. He’s got your back.

When the shit goes down, he steps up. You might see a different side to him in this situation, because he’s gone into “protector” mode. But if you’re with him, take comfort in the fact that he’s not gonna let anybody fuck with you.

My Tita Yna’s Books

I grew up reading Hiyas Children’s books that my Tita Yna usually gave me and my cousins during Christmas or birthdays or sometimes at random.

I especially love her first book, “Ang Bagong Kaibigan ni Bing Butiki” which stars my best cousin, Aina and our grand parents Lolo Ding and Lola Paz. It is about the lizard Bing who doesn’t want to go near kids because he is afraid to get hurt by them. Then, Bing meets Aina, read the book so you’ll know what will change Bing’s view on kids. A few weeks ago, I started to read this book to Coco because he saw lizards by the window of his room. He kept on pointing at it and also makes sounds. So now, everytime he sees a lizard, he says waves his hand, as if sayign “Hi!”.

Tita Yna’s 2nd book is “God of Fire, God of Rain (Wow God Series)“, she retold the story of the drought in Israel when the prophet Elijah issues a challenges to the false prophets and t show Israel who is the One True God. I believe she said she chose this story because of my cousin, Elijah whom she always reads books with every weekends.

I gave away both books during Coco’s 1st birthday early this year.

And lastly, her newest book, “One Mighty, Awesome Incredible Rescue (Wow God Series)” which was released last September 20 at this year’s Manila International Book Fair. She wrote it for my two little cousins, Elijah and Jamie (the ones in the picture). I haven’t got a copy of it yet. But according to the info in the OMFLIT page, “What have you done to us?!” the Israelites cried to Moses. The Egyptian army was getting near but before them was the Red Sea. They were trapped! Who is the mighty, awesome, incredible rescuer of the Israelites?” — this is what you will look forward too.

These books are available at any National Bookstore, at around Php70 or at the OMFLIT Bookstore.

Experts Discuss Flatness of Earth

EXPERTS DISCUSS FLATNESS OF EARTH….The Washington Post editorializes today that we could all be singing Kumbaya on Iraq except for one itsy bitsy little thing:

The decision of Democrats led by Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (Nev.) to deny rather than nourish a bipartisan agreement is, of course, irresponsible….A Democratic strategy of trying to use Iraq as a polarizing campaign issue and as a club against moderate Republicans who are up for reelection will certainly have the effect of making consensus impossible — and deepening the trouble for Iraq and for American security.

Yes, you heard right. After four years of Republican insistence that Congress’s only role in the war is to pony up trainloads of money and then shut the hell up, it turns out that it’s actually Democrats who are making consensus impossible. Ad astra per alia porci! In other news from this universe, J.K. Rowling revealed today that Harry Potter becomes a Sith Lord in the seventh book, destroys Hogwarts and kills all its inhabitants, and will henceforth be known as Darth Patronus. Movie rights will be auctioned shortly.

Paricipant profile: Olivier Lorelle

It’s over to France today to discover more about screenwriter and President (Cinema) of the Union-Guilde des Scénaristes, Olivier Lorelle.

Olivier Lorelle

Olivier Lorelle

Olivier began his career teaching philosophy and writing for theatre before he turned his attention to screenwriting.

His early projects include the feature films Méfie-toi de l’eau qui dort (Still waters Run Deep, 1996), Kini et Adams (1997), and Vivre au paradis (Living in Paradise, 1998), as well as writing for the television dramas Tous ensemble (1998) and Strada principale (2001).

It was his writing with director Rachid Bouchareb on the film Little Senegal (2001) that brought him to critical attention. The film won nine international awards, including the Golden Bear at Berlin.

He’s since co-written the feature films Siestes (2001) and Les diables (The Devils, 2002), as well as the television dramas Agathe et le grand magasin (2001) and  Don Quichotte ou Les mésaventures d’un homme en colère (2005).

His second collaboration with director Rachid Bouchareb, Indigènes (Days of glory, 2006), proved another hit. It won nine awards, including the César Award for Best Original Writing, and a nomination for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. His recent collaboration with Bouchareb, London River (2009), netted them another two awards at Berlin this year.

Olivier has also co-written Faro, la reine des eaux (Faro Goddess of the waters, 2007) and L’autre moitié (The Other Half, 2007). During the same year he wrote and directed the television drama L’âge de l’amour. Olivier has written and directed the short films ‘La Vase’ (2001) and ‘Avec un grand A’ (2005).

He currently has two films in production: Hors la loi (a sequel to Days of glory), and Ciel rouge.

As well as all of this Olivier is a Professor at the distinguished film school La Fémis in Paris, and President (Cinema) of the Union-Guilde des Scénaristes.

5 Приложения за запис GIF Screencasts на Windows 10

Няма недостиг на screencast инструменти за платформата на Windows. Повечето инструменти за запис screencasts в MP4 формат. Този формат може да се възпроизвежда на почти всяко устройство, и на изходния файл не е твърде голям. Докато MP4 е предпочитаният формат, people have begun to favor GIF for screencasts. A GIF is much smaller in size compared to an MP4 file. You can email it, send it in a message, and use it online in place of regular screencasts. While people may prefer to record GIF screencasts, there aren’t too many apps out there that support this format. Those that do offer poor quality, are expensive, or are limited in features. Това каза, there are still some awesome apps that let you record GIF screencasts. Тук са 5 free ones.

1. ScreenToGif

The apps in this list aren’t in any particular order but ScreenToGif is the tool I personally use and swear by any time I need to record a GIF. It’s a portable app that can record screencasts in both GIF and MP4 format.

It also has a reasonably good GIF editor.

Its noteworthy features include;

  • Frame by frame editing
  • Transition control, примка, auto-play, and reverse play direction
  • Преоразмеряване, изрязване, and rotate GIF
  • Show key strokes
  • Add text, Заглавие, and draw free hand
  • Record a specific region of your screen
  • Set GIF size in pixels
  • Create HD GIFs
  • Frame rate control

2. VClip

VClip is another portable app that can record GIF screencasts but it’s very basic. You can use it to record your entire screen or just a specific region. The app has two controls; frame rate control and output format. The app is simple and you won’t have to bother with too many settings however this comes at a price; The GIFs are low quality.

3. Recordit

Recordit has both a paid and a free version. The free version of this app lets you record upto 5 minutes of your screen. Given we’re talking about GIFs, 5 minutes is more than enough. A GIF that’s even a minute long is too long. Recordit runs in the system tray. Unlike the previous two entries on this list, it is not a portable app. It also has one of the most minimal interfaces you will find in this list.

The app records the screencast in MP4 format and uploads it to its own cloud interface where you can convert it to a GIF and save it to your local disk. The GIFs are not high quality.

4. LICEcap

Licecap is one of the few apps in this list that you can compare with ScreenToGif. It still doesn’t beat ScreenToGif because it has no editor but it’s a reasonable app otherwise.

Its features include;

  • Frame rate control
  • Title frame
  • Showing mouse button clicks

The GIFs are low in quality.

5. ShareX

ShareX is another feature rich app that can record GIF screencasts. It’s an extensive screen capture app that can capture screenshots, scrolling web pages and record video screencasts. Отново, there is no editor so if you want to add text or resize a GIF, Вие сте изложени на късмет.

You can record your entire screen or a select region. It has reasonable keyboard shortcut support and the GIF quality isn’t bad either.

We don’t mean to play favorites but ScreenToGif is the superior app on this list. It’s free and it’s the only one that will let you edit a GIF without using Photoshop or anything similar. The other apps are easier to use and that is what makes them unique. You can use an online app like EzGif to resize, изрязване, and compress GIFs if you favor the other apps.

Westerman Votes To Protect Arkansas From Obama's EPA Carbon Rule

June 26, 2015

“This week, I voted for H.R. 2042, a bill that would block the EPA’s carbon rule for power plants. President Obama’s EPA has been out of control, issuing new rules and regulations that are more focused on politics than sound science. This latest rule is effectively a backdoor energy tax that would never pass Congress. A vote to block the carbon rule on existing power plants is a vote to keep energy rates low for Arkansas families and businesses. Without Congressional action, costs for electricity will rise dramatically as electric utility providers pass costs for compliance to their customers.”

“The Torching of Timbuktu”

The US getting involved in the on-going conflict in Mali might be a terrible idea, but the jihadist insurgents can definitely go fuck themselves:

“While the invaders destroyed the tombs of the city’s [Timbuktu] saints, people grieved, but still thought their books might be safe as the Islamists were holed up in the Ahmed Baba Institute, not for their love of learning, but for convenience. With the exception of the La Maison, a four-star hotel which was likely burned to the ground for being one of the few places that not only sold alcohol, but also catered to foreigners, the libraries were one of the few buildings in Timbuktu with modern plumbing and, even more importantly, air-conditioning. Because invaders love to be comfortable when not imposing their will on an oppressed population.

But when the French invaded over the weekend, the Islamists added the ultimate insult to the injuries they’d already inflicted on the town, by blowing up a warehouse full of manuscripts, as well as the Institute itself.”

The article goes on to mention that many of the books were actually Korans, making it a mortal sin in and of itself for the Muslim extremists involved.

There is nothing uglier in the world than religious fundamentalism.

Rahni’s Book Club

I have been saying for months that I was going to start a children’s book club, and today, I finally did. I called the library and reserved a meeting room for our first official meeting. It will be in a month and now I have to invite people and find a book.
There is no particular age range for the club, but the books will be appropriate for kids aged 7 to about 10 just because I don’t want the books that we select to be too difficult or too easy. Since Rahni is 8 and most of the kids that I am going to invite are around her age give or take a couple years, this should hopefully work out. Of course we can always make adjustments as necessary.
Upon looking for our first book selection, I came across some very interesting books that I have never seen before. It seems like these days there is no shortage of books or authors for children to choose from. While representation of ethnic diversity is lacking in characters, today I have found, despite my initial thought, that there are a good amount of books that have both female and male main characters. Admittedly, I usually do not browse for books that boys specifically would be interested in because I don’t have a son. However, when we do go to book stores and libraries, I notice a lot more books with a lot more female protagonists.
When I asked two of my trusted mommy friends about books that both boys and girls would like, they both gave me 2 really good options; one being Sweet Farts series book #1 by Raymond Bean and the other was the Rotten School series book #1 by R.L. Stine.
I never knew the R.L .made any series outside of Goosebumps, so this came as a pleasant surprise to me. The series is not scary, but is funny, and has a good amount of the gross humor that kids tend to like. The first book is titled The Big Blueberry Barf-Off, if that tells you anything. I read excerpts from the book and it seems to be about a very annoying and bratty kid that challenges another kid that is just as bratty to a pie eating contest. It seems legitimately funny and there are short chapters and great illustrations.
Before today, I ashamed to say that I have never heard of author Raymond Bean. He writes children’s humor book series Sweet Farts and School is a Nightmare. He also has a series titles Benji Franklin that I absolutely fell in love with after reading an excerpt from book #1 Benji Franklin Kid Zillionaire. Benji is a child genius and inventor. He wins an award for one of his inventions and becomes the world’s first and only zillionaire. It is a book about creativity, imagination, and also good will. This is definitely a book that goes on our “to read” list.

These are some of the books that I think would be great options, some are newer and some are classics, either way  I think they all appeal to boys and girls.

  1. Hi! I spotted your post today. You have a great list here. I’m happy to be a part of it! I teach fourth grade in NY and write for young readers. It’s awesome that you’re putting together a reading group at your local library. I love to see young readers staying connected to the local library. If your group needs anything, say the word. Happy reading!

Healthy Family Farms Busted for Cheese: Owner Jailed

AUG 3, 2011–This story is updated here with new news

Now it’s goat milk and cheese.

This just in today: The owner of Healthy Family Farms has been arrested and jailed. Now out of jail, Sharon Palmer is facing criminal charges for selling raw goat cheese and raw goat milk at farmers markets in Ventura CA. We will try to Update this story as soon as more information is known. Ventura Co. Star paper gives us just some of the facts.

See the beautiful pictures and a great story of Healthy Family Farms in today’s paper at

  2. Ha ha ha . . . . oh say it aint so! Well at least Sharon has moved on to milking cows instead of milking unsuspecting elderly widows out of their life savings through mortgage scams!!

    Sharon Palmer (Ross) was arrested a few years ago as she was trying to enter the U.S. at the San Ysidro border crossing with three Mexican nationals in the trunk of her car!!

    She had fled to Mexico after scamming an elderly widow out of her $1 million dollar home.

    And this was AFTER she had already served a state prison sentences for swindling an elderly home-owner out of nearly $750,000 in a similar scam.

  3. Your point is well appreciated, John. But perhaps it is not the same Sharon Palmer– although their ages are the same.

    I assert it is unusual for a person to change careers from milking widows to milking goats; from an easy buck to a very hard one.

    If these women are one and the same, then it is also rare that the state had done a such a great job in rehabilitating the criminal — although into a “criminal” of a different type: an artisan cheesemaker.

    Nonetheless, although not well recognized, it is still legal for one to change; and we must not forget to realize the subject has paid her penalty. That is, if they are one and the same.

  4. It is the same person, she is still scamming people. Check this link out

    And this one, A Bench warrant issued for not paying a small claims case on 12/02/08

    Oh heres a new one, trying to scam the local hay dealer

    People dont change, just change how they rip honest people off.

  5. I suppose this is sufficient evidence, John. The State Department of Corrections and Rehabiliation has failed us again.

    But, all the above is inadmissable or the defense will claim irrelevancy. The point of law here is can she sell raw goats milk and cheese as in France and throughout the world and in California I might add. Whether or not she did not pay for the hay that she fed the goats cannot enter into the argument–lthough it does make the story more juicier and appetizing. So much so that you should make the Ventura Gazette readers aware of this page of news.

    Thanks for the input.

  6. First of all, before you go and start making judgments about a woman that you do not know, try reading into the facts. Stop blasting your cowardly comments about someone when you have no reasonably facts about what really went down. All of you should be ashamed of yourselves for making faulty accusations about a person who you do not even know. Everything about what she does on her farm is 100% legal, read the books. So do not make assumptions about someone who you don’t even know. It is was beyond ignorance and the knowledge that any of you bloggers can even hold yourselves accountable for. So the next time you want to make false accusations about a person on the internet, make sure you have the full facts before you start manipulating the court systems and be held accountable for defacing a persons name. Because that for one will not be held up in a court of law. Thank you for your understanding and I hope for your self dignancy that this will be the last blog written on the page.

    • Megan, I defended Sharon Palmer in the original story and linked to her beautiful store. I also defended her from Joe Slow’s comment that I seriously considered not approving to post. I take your comment as not directed at me. Also, I did not approve two other comments that I thought were derogatory.

      The Complete Patient did an excellent job of interviewing Sharon who says she took the rap of her husband who had skipped town. She was unaware of his dirty dealings and with conning the old lady out of her house. I happen to accept her story.

  7. I was just thinking about Healthy Family Farms Busted for Cheese: and you’ve really helped out. Thanks!

  8. The moral of the story, don’t mess with big agribusiness or you will get slandered. Stands the test of time that one…

  9. We get the excellent chickens at Victoria Park in Santa Monica on Sat. (sold by a Spanish man)
    Very interesting, this whole story.
    She may be somewhat shady, but I think the most relevant comment may be by Matt, above.

  10. i’m intensely skeptical of “pastured” livestock, because there is no enforceable definition of what the animals ate over their lifetime. It could be a large percentage of grain or pulse rations

7 Starter - server connection on wireless not on wired??

I am not a windows user (usually) but my daughter has a new netbook that came with windows 7 32-bit starter version. We access the internet and a home server (linux) through our home network.

Her wireless connection works fine to access the internet and the server files via samba no problem.

I wanted to transfer a large amount of files (50gb) to her netbook from the server so I decided to use the wired (gigabit) connection for speed. Oddly, the server and several other computers on the network that could be "seen" using her wireless adapter disappear when I switched to the wired adapter.

Is this a purposeful crippling of the starter version or should I be looking for some other settings?

On XP you had the "bridge" which always worked well for my purposes but I can't find that either.

Anyone here have any ideas?

Win 7 Login Requests Password for Wrong User Account

Over the week-end something strange happened to one of our Windows 7 systems. It worked fine on Friday, was shut down for the week-end. When turned on this morning everything appeared normal. There are six user accounts set up on the system. No matter which one you choose to log in to, it requests the password for the first user set up on the system. When the screen comes up requesting the password, you can click on Switch User and then when you choose a user to log in as, it prompts for the correct user's password. I have never seen this happen and am at a loss as to how to correct.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Wine to go with your Thanksgiving Feast

ThanskgivingThe holiday season is upon us and the food and wine will be flowing freely. This got me thinking about what types of wine go well with a traditional Thanksgiving feast. In my opinion the options are limitless when it comes to choosing a wine for Thanksgiving.

If you are looking to go with a white you want something well balanced with some acidity. I prefer a dry white. A Sauvignon Blanc might be a good choice or perhaps a Gewurztraminer. The crisp citrus flavors that are characteristic of Sauvignon Blac should pair nicely with your Turkey dinner. Gewurztraminer is a bolder choice to go with your meal, having a bit more spice to it.

On the red side I would say a good Pinot Noir is your best bet, you want softer tannins to go with the turkey.  If you are going to go with a Pinot though, I would not go with a cheep bottle. For the most part decent Pinots start at around $20 but usually cost more than that. Pinots grapes are pretty delicate and hard to grow hence why it’s hard to find a good cheep Pinot. If you don’t want to go with a Pinot I would recommend a Zinfandel. It’s smooth dark fruit flavor will work well with your meal.  I would steer clear of a red with bold harsh tannins, like a Malbec. In my opinion harsh tannins will overwhelm the flavours of the meal.

A dry sparkling like a Brut Champagne or a Presecco would also be nice with your meal, if you want to go with something a little more festive for the holiday!

If you’re anything like my family you are probably going to go through more than one bottle of wine on Thanksgiving. Always start with the lighter less full bodied wines. If you do the opposite you will blow out your palate and won’t be able to pick up the nuances of the lighter bodied wines. I might do a Prescco or Rose with appetizers earlier in the day and then move into a white or red with dinner.

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
