Q: Is there a way to tell the browser to bookmark a different URL than is in the address bar? I have an application that utilizes rather unfriendly dynamic URLs most of the time.  I am providing friendly URLs to some content, but these are used only as an entry point into the application, after which point all of the generated URLs will be the unfriendly variety.
My question is, if I know that the user is on a page for which a friendly URL could be generated and they choose to bookmark it, is there a way to tell the browser to bookmark the friendly one instead of what is in the address bar?

A: I had hoped that rel="canonical" would help here, but it seems as if it's only used for indexing. Maybe one day browsers will utilise it.

A: No. This is by design, and a Good Thing.
Imagine the following scenario: Piskvor surfs to http://innocentlookingpage.example.com/ and clicks "bookmark". He doesn't notice that the bookmark he saved points to http://evilsite.example.net/ Next time he opens that bookmark, he might get a bit of a surprise.
Another example without cross-domain issues:
Piskvor the site admin clicks "bookmark" on the homepage of http://security-holes-r-us.example.org/ - unfortunately, the page is vulnerable to script injection, and the injected code changes the bookmark to http://security-holes-r-us.example.org/admin?action=delete&what=everything&sure=absolutely . If he's still logged in the next time he opens the bookmark, he may find his site purged of data (Granted, it was his fault not to prevent script injection AND to have non-idempotent GET resources, but that is all too common).

Presently, you may have been hearing so much discussion about ketones. Be that as it may, what are ketones? Furthermore, what do they have to do with keto? All things considered, there are a couple of various types of ketones. In any case, the one that is typically utilized in eating regimen pills like Keto//Hack is called Beta Hydroxybutyrate (BHB). What's more, individuals love matching additional BHB with their keto diet. Since, it very well may be an incredible method to kickstart keto and help remain in it longer.


I am amazed at the incredible level of creativity in our young flute artists as well as other young classically trained musicians. They are nothing short of stellar in their love for what they do, their level of energy and their gift of citizenry, not to mention among the world's most competitive musicians.
Anybody who's been shopping with me (and I love to shop) has heard me say "I must be looking for a blue unicorn again." By that I mean, I know what I want, but somehow, what I'm looking for doesn't exist. This happens to me over and over. Probably happens to you too, right?
FLUTESPIRATION: What I think about when I think about the flute. The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about the flute is the flutists who I have worked with on pieces in the past, present, and those who I might work with in the future.
I am a well-rounded woman. While I do enjoy many facets of life, this is not the 'well-rounded' I was referring to. I am a curvaceous, full-figured, big beautiful woman. Whatever term you choose to use, it means the same thing.
About two years ago, I was in a frustrating Catch-22. I needed to exercise to get my body in healthier shape, but I was limited in what I could do, due to an injury. A friend recommended her personal trainer, and I now see my trainer once a week, and receive a workout "assignment" for the week. This has been life-changing for my health, as one may expect, but it has also changed the way I approach teaching my private students.
'You are a unique, wise, creative being. You really can do whatever you dream if you put your mind to it, be kind to yourself and let your artistry flow.' Sitting in a busy cafe in central London I thought to myself, 'what do I want to say' immediately be above message came to me loud and clear.

Q: Can a 3D curve not confined to a plane have fractal dimension anywhere between $1$ and $3$? I have a question regarding my dissertation I could not find an answer to:

Can a 3D-Curve (whose graph goes in all three directions of space) have a Fractal Dimension (FD) anywhere between $1$ and $3$, depending on its space filling capability?

The context of my question is as follows: a space filling curve in 2D-Space has a FD of $2$. A space filling curve in 3D-Space has a FD of $3$, e.g a 3D Hilbert Curve.
A non-space filling curve that lies in 2D-Space (e.g a 2D Koch Curve) should have a FD between $1$ and $2$, depending on its complexity/ space filling capability. And such a curve that in 3D-Space should have a FD between $1$ and $3$?
N.B at first I thought that a curve in 3D-Space should have a FD between 2 and 3, e.g the 3D-Sierpinski Arrowhead Curve, which should have the same FD of $2.32$ as the 3D Sierpinski Gasket. However I came to the conclusion that a 3D-Curve could be simple enough to have a FD below $2$ (also backed by box-counting measurments I made). A 3D Curve which my 3D Box-Counting Algorithm says has a FD of $1.52$.

Duke of Edinburgh's Award volunteers given Royal thanks this International Volunteer Day
The Duke of Edinburgh's Award (DofE) is celebrating its thousands of amazing supporters who give their time and expertise so young people can have the life-changing experience of doing their DofE.
Volunteers up and down the UK are key to making the DofE possible, giving hundreds of thousands of young people from every area and background the chance to have fun and develop skills, resilience and lifelong self-belief.
And this International Volunteer Day (5 December), 50 volunteers across the UK are receiving a letter of thanks from HRH The Earl of Wessex and a commemorative coin to celebrate the life and legacy of the DofE's founder, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh – generously donated by The Royal Mint.
The DofE's CEO Ruth Marvel said: "If young people are the heart of our organisation, volunteers are the lungs, breathing life into our programmes, changing the lives of young people so that they build confidence and resilience for whatever life might have in store.
"At a time when so many young people are facing unprecedented challenges, the work of volunteers is even more important in helping our adults of tomorrow regain a sense of control for their futures today. Thank you to each and every volunteer who has helped us support so many young people, even in the most challenging of times."
The 50 coin recipients have gone above and beyond and were selected to reflect some of the different roles, successes and activities on behalf of more than 45,000 DofE volunteers. Many have given decades to supporting young people, while others have bent over backwards to make sure they can continue their DofE despite personal challenges or the effects of the pandemic.

Looking at the S&P this morning, we have some fragility due to ongoing weakness in China's stock market which is currently in a bear trend. The ongoing budget battle in Italy is also weighing on stocks this morning. Currently, the 10-year yield on the BTP, which is Italy's main 10-year bond, is at 3.40 which is a new contract high for this commodity. Often when you see big moves out of Europe's bond markets, this means trouble is brewing and investors should start paying attention for any trickle-down effects in our bond and stock markets.
One very big negative I see in our stock indices is the Russell 2000. Yesterday, we had a lot of weakness in this sector and actually fell below the 100-day moving average for the first time in a long time. I point this out because the Dow, Nasdaq and the S&P are all above key averages, but traders should take note that we have seen the Russell lead in the past, and if this does prove correct we might have seen the highs for the year in our stock market. Nothing is guaranteed, but "warning signals" are developing.
The economic calendar is fairly quiet today, besides fed chairman Powell speaks at 12:45 central on wage inflation. Traders should be cognizant and watch for volatility if anything new is said. The Fed's number one priority for continuing to raise rates is to see wages, which have been relatively stagnant, go up.

Q: Label for Solo Text Field in Vuetify Anyone know of a way to add a label to a solo style text field for Vuetify? Its not even working on Vuetify's own website. Here is a link that shows it not working:
And here is the code with the label props from Vuetify, this also does not work:
<template>
  <v-container grid-list-md>
    <v-layout row wrap>
      <v-flex xs12 sm6>
        <v-text-field solo label="First Name" v-model="first"></v-text-field>
      </v-flex>
      <v-flex xs12 sm6>
        <v-text-field solo-inverted label="Last Name" v-model="last"></v-text-field>
      </v-flex>
    </v-layout>
  </v-container>
</template>

A: The label, when solo is setted to true, just is showed if the input is empty. If it's not, it will just show what you have typed.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review
Posted by Luke Kent on Dec 17, 2015 Apr 22, 2016
"The Force, it's calling to you. Just let it in."
For every Luke Skywalker, we've had a Jar Jar Binks. For every Darth Vader, there's been midi-chlorians. And for every Han Solo, a Han shot first fiasco. Being a Star Wars fan can often be a turbulent affair. And if one thing's true in the life of a Star Wars fan, it's that you've got to take the rough with the smooth. Which perhaps explains why the wait for The Force Awakens has been such a long and arduous one. Never before have so many sweaty palmed and anxious fans converged in unison worldwide for a film's release, willing it to be a success. The good news is, The Force Awakens is everything that we could possibly have hoped for, and a resounding return to form for Star Wars. Yes, J. J. Abrams has only gone and done it.
Really, the less you know heading into The Force Awakens the better. In the interest of keeping things spoiler-free, I'll leave plot details at a bare minimum. It's a Star Wars film. Good vs Evil. Light vs Dark. The dramatic turns are wonderfully executed, the balance between new and old is struck beautifully, and there's enough surprises to give The Empire Strikes Back a run for its money. There are returning faces aplenty, but predominantly the film acts as an entry point to the Star Wars universe for Daisy Ridley's Rey, John Boyega's Finn and Oscar Isaac's Poe Dameron, the best pilot in the whole damn Resistance. But with all of the new custodians of the light, we must have a little balance in The Force. Enter Kylo Ren, the masked miscreant with a bad temper, played by Adam Driver (Girls).
Kylo Ren, played by Adam Driver.
Whilst in A New Hope we met Darth Vader as a fully formed villain, and a true student of the dark side, we meet Kylo Ren at a point where he's battling to prove his power not only to those around him, but also to the mysterious Supreme Commander Snoke (Andy Serkis). He's a flawed, but nonetheless formidable foe taking the first steps along his path to darkness, acting to both raise the stakes of the film whilst providing yet another iconic and exemplary entry into the long line of Star Wars heels. He's much more than a cut and paste bad guy, and The Force Awakens is far stronger for it.
Since the beginning of the franchise the strength of Star Wars has always been in its characters – memorable, sympathetic and recognisable by even the most uninterested of observers. With the dark side bringing us the imposing Kylo Ren, the heroic quota is fulfilled by Finn, Rey and Poe, all of whom are welcome new additions to the fold. But of the trio, it's Daisy Ridley's Rey who deserves the largest slice of the plaudits. Whilst Finn clumsily bumbles around, she leads the way with strength and intelligence. In a year which brought Mad Max's Furiosa (Charlize Theron) and Mission: Impossible's Ilsa (Rebecca Ferguson) to our cinema screens, it's fantastic to see yet another massive series hitting the right notes with its gender balance. And this is from a franchise that turned Natalie Portman's Padmé from badass ruler of the people into a doting wife over the course of three films.
Daisy Ridley's Rey accompanies BB-8.
Meanwhile, BB-8 is just as adorable as we've been led to believe from the film's glut of merchandising and trailers, but not only adorable, but also really quite funny. As are Finn, Rey, Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Chewie (Peter Mayhew). Gone are the long-winded political ramblings of the prequel films, and mercifully back in is the light-hearted tone of the original trilogy. That's not to say that it's without emotional depth, because make no bones about it, The Force Awakens cuts pretty deep when it wants to. The key is balance, and that's exactly what Lawrence Kasdan's script brings; it might not be entirely watertight, but it's action-packed, fun, full of humour and captures the spirit we've come to expect from a Star Wars film excellently.
But naturally, a top script is for naught if not capitalised upon, and fortunately director J. J. Abrams has created a film which is grand in scale and scope, and delivers a truly cinematic experience which puts the majority of modern blockbusters to shame. It might not bring anything massively new to the table, but instead the film focuses on getting the basics of what fans adore so much about the Star Wars universe right. It's chock full of beautiful imagery, shot with a sweeping grandeur by Daniel Mindel, it heavily features a use of terrific practical effects, and John William's classic score remains as perfect as ever.
It's Star Wars done the old fashioned way. Where good is good, bad is bad, and Stormtroopers can't shoot for love nor money. It's a universe filled with magic for so many, and one which you'll be glad to return to.
The Force Awakens brings the soul back to the Star Wars franchise. The wait is finally over, and honestly, it's been worth every second.

It's great, lots of fun, hope you enjoy 🙂


Since I sell for a living, I like to look for the best in sales situations and generally cut salespeople a lot of slack when they are presenting to me. However, every once in a while I run across a sales platform that goes over the line between being diligent and obnoxious.
I am not going to name the company or service, but the main issue is they had frontline phone salespeople who were poorly trained yet called incessantly to follow up on the initial lead. I did not mind the follow up, but what annoyed me was that these people were obviously reading from scripts and when I asked deeper questions, they not only couldn't answer them, but they just referred back to their scripts. Also, they had been trained to be way too upbeat in a serious conversation, with the requisite sing song voices, and they did not communicate with each other, so each time I spoke to a rep it recreated the wheel.
What's the best way to check your phone salespeople's performance? Call in yourself or have secret shoppers call to see how it goes.
I have always said that great salespeople are the most valuable people in any given organization. The flipside . . . bad salespeople can do enormous damage if we do not invest in their training and do not provide strong oversight and quality control.

Q: How to export filtered data.frame into desired folder dynamically? I've read list of csv files in the folder, now I intend to filter them out given threshold, where dropped rows in each data.frame must be exported to desired folder in dynamic way while saved rows returned as an output. However, I implemented the function to do this task, and it works fine except writing dropped rows as csv files into desired folder is failed. Can anyone point me out what's going in my functions ? Any efficient way to write data.frame in specific folder dynamically ? How can I correct implementation ? Any idea ?
reproducible data:
myData <- list(
  df_1 = data.frame( L1=seq(3, by=4, len=16), L2=seq(7, by=4, len=16), score=sample(30, 16)),
  df_2 = data.frame( L1=seq(6, by=7, len=20), L2=seq(14, by=7, len=20), score=sample(30, 20)),
  df_3 = data.frame( L1=seq(11, by=8, len=25), L2=seq(19, by=8, len=25), score=sample(30, 25))
  )

I implement this function, it works fine except writing csv files is not desired:
func <- function(mlist, threshold=NULL, outDir=getwd(), .fileName=NULL, ...) {
  if(!dir.exists(outDir)) {
    dir.create(file.path(outDir))
    setwd(file.path(outDir))
  }
  rslt <- lapply(mlist, function(x) {
    .drop <- x[x$score < threshold,]
    # FIXME : write droped rows of each data.frame into specific folder
    write.csv(.drop, sprintf("drop.%s.csv", x), row.names = FALSE)
    .save <- x[x$score >= threshold,]
    return(.save)
  })
  return(rslt)
}

This is what I intend to write csv file in specific location: concatenate with .initPath .initPath = getwd(), create new folder and write csv files there. I don't understand what went wrong in my implementation, I got an error.
How can I write dropped rows from each data.frame into specific folder dynamically ? Is there any quick way to make this happen more efficiently ? Thanks a lot.

A: Currently, in your write.csv() line, you are concatenating the dataframe object, x, into the file name with sprintf(). You need to concatenate the name of the dataframe object to the file name.
So, consider replacing your lapply() with a Map() function (and Map being a wrapper to mapply(func, x, y, SIMPLIFY=FALSE) where you pass two arguments for mlist itself and mlist names. Do note: you might think that using names(x) in original setup would work but this returns the column names of corresponding dataframe which still will fail in concatenating to a filename string.
func <- function(mlist, threshold=NULL, outDir=getwd(), .fileName=NULL, ...) {
  if(!dir.exists(outDir)) {
    dir.create(file.path(outDir))
    setwd(file.path(outDir))
  }
  rslt <- Map(function(x, y) {
    .drop <- x[x$score < threshold,]

    write.csv(.drop, sprintf("drop.%s.csv", y), row.names = FALSE)
    .save <- x[x$score >= threshold,]
    return(.save)
  }, mlist, names(mlist))
  return(rslt)
}

# EXAMPLE
newData <- func(myData, threshold=10)

And if you do want to keep lapply(), create temp variables to capture df object and df name. Also below shows how to allow dynamic path and file name changes by passing such values into args and concatenating all with sprintf():
func <- function(mlist, threshold=NULL, csvName="", outDir=getwd(), .fileName=NULL, ...) {
  if(!dir.exists(outDir)) {
    dir.create(file.path(outDir))
    setwd(file.path(outDir))
  }
  rslt <- lapply(seq_along(mlist), function(x) {
    df <- mlist[[x]]; dfname <- names(mlist)[x]
    .drop <- df[df$score < threshold,]

    write.csv(.drop, sprintf("%s/%s.%s.csv", outDir, csvName, dfname), row.names = FALSE)
    .save <- df[df$score >= threshold,]
    return(.save)
  })
  return(rslt)
}

# EXAMPLE
newData <- func(myData, threshold=10, csvName=usercsv, outDir=userpath)

How Much Do Major League Baseball Coaches Make?

Becoming a Major League Baseball coach isn't every kid's dream job – that would be NFL quarterback or NBA center – but it's certainly up there so far as aspirational jobs are concerned. So what does it take to become an MLB coach, and how do you go about preparing yourself for the job?
The Job, Defined
MLB coaches work under the direction of the team's general manager. The GM's duties involve financial and sports strategic planning and implementation. An important job requirement for the GM is the ability to meet the expectations of the team's owner or owners.
Often, MLB GMs are also their teams' field managers. Either way, the ranking manager on the field makes the real-time decisions required as play progresses. The newly appointed manager for the New York Yankees is Aaron Boone, the ranking manager on the field. The Yankees' GM is Brian Cashman.
Under Boone are 12 coaches, each with an area of specialization: bench coach, first-base coach, third-base coach, hitting coach, assistant hitting coach, pitching coach, bullpen coach, strength and conditioning coach, team trainer, bullpen catcher and two coaches at large. Each works in the area his coaching title implies. The pitching coach works exclusively with pitchers. The third-base coach stands behind third base and advises runners on second and third.
Major league sports is one of the few areas remaining in American life where a college education is of little importance and won't determine whether you qualify for the job or how much money you make. In fact, acquiring a college degree could reduce your earnings because all athletes have a limited number of peak earning years, and getting a BA takes up four of them.
A background in baseball is obviously important, but not all major league coaches have themselves been major league players. Terry Collins, until 2017 the manager on the field for the Mets, never played in a single major league game. Even those managers who did "make it to the bigs," didn't always have distinguished playing careers. Tony La Russa, for example, averaged only a little over 20 games a year for the six years he played major league ball. His career batting average is .199. As a major league manager, of course, La Russa has been a star, winning multiple league championships and one world series.
Years of Experience Needed: Coaches
Most employment fields have fairly consistent experience requirements; often these are even included in the initial job description. In baseball, there's no established rule or general practice about how much experience you need before becoming a major league coach. The one most common experience of MLB position coaches isn't as minor league coaches but as players. This holds true for field managers as well, although many MLB field managers have, in addition to their experience as players, worked as minor league coaches before ascending to the majors. Also, a surprising number of field managers – Buck Martinez and Bobby Valentine among them – have worked as television commentators at some point in their careers.
Statistically, however, for both field managers and coaches, the work experience most predictive of a major league coaching career is playing professional baseball.
Years of Experience Needed: General Managers
The work experience path that leads to a General Manager (GM) position in MLB differs to some degree from the paths of field managers and coaches. Typically, that path takes many years.
Some, like the New York Yankees' Brian Cashman, began as executive interns in one of the MLB organizations, as did the Atlanta Braves' GM Alex Anthopoulos, who started as an unpaid intern in the Montreal Expos' mailroom.
Unlike the strong emphasis on playing experience for field managers and coaches, several MLB GMs never played baseball at all and entered an MLB organization as office workers or unpaid interns. Several others – again unlike the most common experiences of field managers and position coaches - began as scouts or coaches in the minor leagues, rather than as players. Former Red Sox GM Ben Cherington, for example, began his baseball career in 1998 as an unpaid intern with the Cleveland Indians, then held eight different jobs of ascending importance with the Red Sox, including Area Scout, Baseball Operations Assistant, Assistant Director and then full Director of Player Development, before becoming GM in 2012.
Despite the many years it typically takes to become a GM, these positions don't last long – the average tenure is about three and a half years. After working for more than a dozen years to become the Red Sox GM, Cherington lasted less than four years before being fired in 2015 and then, in 2016, joining the Toronto Blue Jays as VP of baseball operations.
Typical Salaries
MLB doesn't release salary information for GMs and coaches. Available information on the internet should be regarded as probable; estimates vary considerably. According to commentator Joe Giglio writing in 2017, Brian Cashman may soon become MLB's highest paid GM, with a salary topping $10 million. Other online sources claim that GM salaries generally range from $500,000 to $2.5 million, with a few salaries exceeding the higher figure.
Field managers are paid less than GMs, but the most up-to-date information available on the internet suggests that salaries for field managers are climbing. Joe Girardi, the Yankee's previous manager, reputedly earned $4 million a year; it's generally thought that Boone, the Yankee's new manager, is being paid more.
Position coaches' salaries also vary widely, depending upon position and team. Some teams, notably the New York Yankees, have always been big moneymakers, and salaries at every level have reflected that. Other teams, like the Oakland A's, have significantly lower income and pay accordingly. Typical salaries for pitching coaches, one of the higher-paid staff coaching jobs, reportedly range from $200,000 to $360,000.

Farewell to a Festival Favourite
Festival Friends – Andrew Wilson
Festival Friends – Ian Johnston
A Tasmanian maritime treasure took to the water one last time recently in a fitting farewell to a Festival favourite.
Admiral is the oldest commercial vessel in Australia and has been a much-loved attraction at the Australian Wooden Boat Festival since 2009.
She was given her final duty on January 29 when she took part in the French Navy tradition of exchanging the old and the new captain of L'Astrolabe – the new Antarctic exploration vessel – and delivered their departing captain to shore in Hobart.
Admiral is 155 years old – a rare example of an early excursion boat, built in 1865 for picnic parties on the Derwent River.
The 8-metre, 8-oared waterman's boat was also used as a steam ferry in 1888, later as a steam yacht, a sailing fishing boat by the early 1900s and a yacht by the 1980s.
As the oldest surviving Tasmanian vessel of its kind, Admiral is significant to our wooden boat history.
It was carvel built in Huon pine and the Mercury newspaper wrote this of her launch in 1865:
At the close of last month a very beautiful new excursion boat was completed by Mr Morland to the order of Mr Charles Dillon, waterman. It is intended for picnic parties during the coming season, and is constructed to pull eight oars. The boat is perfect in model of form, and her appointments are furnished in a style which will far exceed any boat of the kind on the river.
In December 1865, Admiral was hired to act as the Governor's barge for the Hobart Regatta and was hired many more times for important occasions.
Festival General Manager Paul Stephanus says Admiral would be missed at the 2021 festival.
"Admiral has always been a strong feature of the festival, and though it's sad to see her come out of the water, she has had a good 155 years of service and deserves a comfortable retirement.
"I have no doubt she'll continue to be an inspiration for generations of young boat builders, adventurers, and maritime enthusiasts for the next century and a half to come."
Skipper Michael Bird says transporting Admiral around Tasmania was taking its toll on the hull.
"Admiral needs to retire, this piece of history needs to rest so she is here for all to see into the very extended future."
Admiral will be kept on permanent display at the Flinders and Bass Centre in George Town, Tasmania.
"Our aim with Admiral's on water activities was to share this amazing piece of history with as many people as possible. We certainly achieved that." – Skipper Michael Bird

Revelation 11 [NASB]
Then there was given me a measuring rod like a staff; and someone said, "Get up and measure the temple of God and the altar, and those who worship in it.
"Leave out the court which is outside the temple and do not measure it, for it has been given to the nations; and they will tread under foot the holy city for forty-two months.
"And I will grant authority to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."
These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.
And if anyone wants to harm them, fire flows out of their mouth and devours their enemies; so if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
These have the power to shut up the sky, so that rain will not fall during the days of their prophesying; and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them and kill them.
And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which mystically is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
Those from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not permit their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and celebrate; and they will send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
But after the three and a half days, the breath of life from God came into them, and they stood on their feet; and great fear fell upon those who were watching them.
And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here " Then they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies watched them.
And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
The second woe is past; behold, the third woe is coming quickly.
Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever."
And the twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God,
saying, "We give You thanks, O Lord God, the Almighty, who are and who were, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign.
"And the nations were enraged, and Your wrath came, and the time came for the dead to be judged, and the time to reward Your bond-servants the prophets and the saints and those who fear Your name, the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth."
And the temple of God which is in heaven was opened; and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple, and there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder and an earthquake and a great hailstorm.

I am regularly asked about my best blogging ideas to make money, but posting to your blog is about much more than that. Your blog is your 'home on the Internet' and should include as much as possible on your niche topic. There are so many excellent ways to find ideas for your blog posts. One of my favorites is to use Google Alerts to find relevant news and other postings about specific topics of interest to me and to my readers in a specific niche. I like to monitor online conversations in these areas to get inspired and to find new sites to follow. I also have alerts set for my name and for the titles of my books. That way I know very quickly if someone has mentioned me on their site and I can swing by to read their post.
Blog directories, such as Technorati and Alltop, are also excellent sources of new ideas in your niche. I love to find bloggers that I am not familiar with, or with whom I have simply lost touch with over the past few years, to see what they are blogging about and to leave comments as a way to connect with them.
You may want to create your own 'Top 10' list of the people in your field who stand apart from everyone else. We all love to see our name in print, and when you recognize a colleague it can really make their day. This is an excellent way to build relationships with people you would like to know better and to do business with in the future.
Which blogs do you read regularly? You will want to subscribe to blogs in your niche to stay on the cutting edge and be aware of what the experts are talking about. This has been one of the ways I have stayed at the top and have been able to JV with so many big names on the Internet in recent years.
Brag about what you are doing in your business. Every time I come out with a new short report or write a book for Kindle I shout it from the rooftops. This is also the case when I will be speaking at a live event or come out with a new product. Be proud of your accomplishments and ask others to join in your celebration.
Give your readers your very best tips and resources. I have never held anything back, and I believe that is why I am fortunate enough to have so many raving fans. People know they can count on me to give it to them straight and to share what I know.
Open up your blog to guest bloggers. I didn't do this for the first few years because I believed it would detract from my credibility. Now I see that it is one of the best ways to build readership with people who are already interested in your topic. I love Nicole Dean's inexpensive training course on guest blogging.
Whether you are looking for blogging ideas to make money or just to increase your online visibility, these ideas will give you a place to begin. And as they say, blog about what you love and the money will follow.

How Kristen Bell Uses This Clever Mental Health Trick With Her Daughters
Pregnancy & Motherhood
Single Life
Spring Challenge
Related Condition Centers
It can be helpful for kids and adults.
By Carolyn L. Todd
Jim Spellman/Getty Images
Kristen Bell frequently talks about her mental health and the strategies she uses to maintain her mental well-being. And in a new interview with CNBC, Bell shared a great emotional-regulation strategy she uses for dealing with tough feelings—one that is so valuable, the mom of two is teaching it to her kids.
Bell, who has spoken openly about the challenges she faces living with anxiety and depression, explained that she tries to shift the way she relates to difficult feelings when they arise. Rather than treating her emotions as a problem she needs to solve, Bell tries to hold them lightly and let them be. The trick is to remember that they are not "your feelings," but "a feeling that is passing through you," Bell told CNBC. "Sometimes, with a mental health issue, you just got to let them live."
This technique has been so helpful for Bell that she also uses it with her two young daughters, 8-year-old Lincoln and 6-year-old Delta. For instance, when one of her kids starts to get upset, Bell will ask them, "Do you want a solution to this problem you're crying about, or do you just want to let this feeling pass through you?"
Sometimes those challenging feelings can feel so overwhelming that it's just too much to think about finding a way to "solve" them or work through them in the moment. Putting a bit of distance between yourself and those emotions—through writing them down or just mentally acknowledging and accepting them in a nonjudgmental way without indulging them too deeply—can help them feel more manageable and, indeed, temporary. With that added distance, some people find that it's much easier to resist the urge to numb those difficult feelings and to instead process them in a meaningful way.
Bell also talked to CNBC about her proactive approach to managing her anxiety and depression. "I don't wait for those things to find me," Bell said. "I have a preoperative list to combat them because I know they're coming."
At the top of that list of healthy coping mechanisms is exercising, sharing what she's going through with other people, and taking a few minutes to herself when she is feeling overwhelmed. "I will go to my bedroom for 10 minutes, just to reset and regulate," Bell said. She also is not shy about hopping off a work call a little early if she needs to. "You don't have to give a reason," Bell said, citing the "framework of putting on your gas mask first, and not being embarrassed about that."

The midsize truck and its GMC sibling, the Canyon, have been in high demand -- but the Missouri factory that makes the pickups is already working around the clock. Here's what GM is doing to squeeze more of the popular trucks out of its already-busy factory.
General Motors (NYSE:GM) will boost output of its midsize Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups in an effort to meet high demand for the two, according to a report in trade publication Wards Auto.
What's happening: GM's Sandor Piszar, who is the marketing chief for the Colorado, told Ward's that GM has added extra tooling and equipment to the production line for the two pickups at its Wentzville, Missouri plant in order to generate an "incremental" boost in production of the popular trucks.
GM sold a combined total of 114,507 Colorados and Canyons in the United States last year. Demand for the two midsize pickups, which compete with Toyota's (NYSE:TM) popular Tacoma pickup, has been exceptionally brisk.
But boosting production of the pair hasn't been simple. The trucks are made in a busy factory that also produces GM's full-size vans, almost 85,000 of them last year. The factory is already working around the clock to try to keep up, so increasing production of the pickups wasn't as simple as adding an extra shift of workers. That's why GM had to expand the production line and its painting facility at the plant in order to build more.
What this means for GM: Piszar didn't say how much of an increase the factory changes would generate, saying only that GM will make as many of the trucks as it can without sacrificing quality. But any increase in supply is likely to be warmly received by GM's dealers.
As strong as they've been, sales of the Colorado and Canyon are dwarfed by those of GM's full-size Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra, which together often sell over 60,000 a month. But they're important competitors in a fast-growing space: Despite the entry of the GM twins into the midsize pickup space just over a year ago, the segment leader, Toyota's Tacoma, managed a 16% sales increase 2015.
What this means for investors: This move is unlikely to generate huge increases in GM's U.S. sales totals. But it should generate incremental sales and profit gains with only a modest increase in GM's fixed costs.
While the midsize GM pickups sell for less than similarly equipped versions of the Silverado and Sierra, and sell in much smaller numbers, these are good profitable sales. Like the Tacoma, and unlike Detroit's midsize pickups of the past, the GM twins aren't really marketed as work trucks. Instead, they're positioned as "lifestyle" vehicles, alternatives to SUVs for outdoorsy types, with appealing high-profit options packages geared to those kinds of buyers.
At least one of GM's rivals has taken note of its success: Ford is believed to be gearing up to re-introduce its midsize Ranger pickup to the U.S., likely in 2018.
That gives the General every incentive to make the most of its trucks' popularity now. And it appears to be moving to do exactly that.

Do you know exactly what your stock count is every minute of the day? Is this even possible? With a traditional pen and paper recording system you will only be as up to date as your last check, and will need to refer back that specific hand written count every time you need to recall your figures.
With an EPoS system you can maintain one central and highly accurate stock record that is always up to date. Not only this, it can track stock throughout your entire estate, from a single café or small corner store, to a chain of restaurants or local convenience stores. You can think of this itemised stock count that is managed by an EPoS system, as your very own product encyclopaedia. It can hold every detail that you need to know about your stock in real time, including a complete description – size, weight, colour, ingredients, etc.
Keeping a detailed description of products will come in useful throughout many operations to help clearly identify goods, such as during shipping, receiving goods, stock check, customer queries etc. It can also be applied to various selling channels like online shopping when the customer relies on the on screen description.
Keeping such an up to date, detailed and specific product database may seem daunting and perhaps unnecessary, but the initial outlay of time, effort and monetary investment will be worth it. For this information, built up over the weeks, months and years of business will hold great insight and provide much of the data that you will come to rely on for reporting and future planning.
Firstly physically building and maintaining the data doesn't have to be a mammoth task as there are tools in place to make your life easier. Take the barcode and barcode scanner for example; the barcode itself holds within it the majority of product information. So, when setting up a product database within an EPoS system it's often a case of scanning the existing barcode, which can be done at the till or anywhere that is convenient if you opt for a portable scanner, and recording the relevant fields of information. Then if necessary you can also create your own unique product barcodes using the information you have inputted into your system.
Following the initial introduction of a product to the EPoS system, going forward, every time that product type is sold or moved from the warehouse to the store, so long as you scan it in, the EPoS system will automatically record its activity. At a later point when you need to know for example exactly how many of that product has been sold and whether you need to buy any more in, you can extract this information from the EPoS system.
Ordering and purchasing :With hundreds if not thousand of products coming and going from your store or busy restaurant, it might be hard to keep an eye on stock levels. Fortunately, with an EPoS system you don't have to. So long as you have scanned your products on arrival and again when sold, the system will be able to keep track of the product count and flag any low numbers. In addition, once you have several weeks of sales in place for a product you can use the sales figures to determine exactly how many products to order in. In fact it can also go so far to automatically raise a purchase order to actually reorder stock for you, based on the fact that it holds your supplier information and can react to pre-programmed stock information that tells it at what the reorder level is.
Marketing and promotions :Once you have accumulated enough product sales data you can extract from this great insight that can be used to create effective marketing campaigns. For example, you might ask your system which products are slow to shift and make a specific promotion for these products. Or if you have a loyalty programme, you might enquire as to which products are bought most regularly and create customer specific special offer vouchers. Once a product is scheduled to be in a promotion, you can create a specific bar code that the EPoS system will recognise, so it automatically adjusts the final sale price according to the promotion.
Theft watch :Tracking your products is much easier if you already know how much of each product you should expect to find in each location, such as on the shop floor or out in the store room. With all data being accountable to your EPoS system, it is very possible to keep track and notice when things don't add up. You will be able to determine which products are going missing and from which locations, and with this information you can put additional security measures in place such as keeping the most easy to steal products closer to the staff till point or under CCTV surveillance.
Wastage : A significant amount of product, that should be making the business money, is in fact wasted. This can be for many a reason, like out of date product that didn't sell in time, broken product that arrived damaged or got damaged after arrival, returned product that the customer deemed of poor quality and so on.
With the help of an EPoS system, you can build a case for reducing such wastage by programming your system to alert you to products that are nearing the end of their shelf life, for which a promotion can be introduced, or simply to help you recognise which products are being most affected. In some cases additional quality control measures can be put in place, such as checking products as they are delivered, or perhaps recognising staff that are prone to waste a product and introducing a supervisor sign off.
Good/bad sellers : You can't sell every product under the sun, so how do you decide what products would be right for your business? With an EPoS system it's pretty simple. With every product recorded by the system, you can easily find out which products are your best sellers, those that are more seasonal or sell periodically, and crucially which items need to be discontinued. Your shelf space is valuable and the EPoS can prevent you from wasting time and money stocking poor selling items when you could use that space to sell more of something else or bring in a new product. For even more added support in this area, you can also test a product based on its location, which could be just a different spot in a store or on a menu, or even a completely different shop/restaurant location.
Pricing : The pricing of your goods, as you likely know, is a fine balancing act between cost price to you plus your regular outgoings, gas, electric, water, rent, staff wages, etc, and how much it's truly worth in the eyes' of your customers. Price too high and you won't sell enough, but price too low and you won't cover your costs. With an EPoS system to guide you, it's far easier to figure out what the right price is. You can literally see what the profit margin for each item is based on its selling price, and with this tool to hand, you can set guidelines as to your maximum and minimum sale price. In addition, you can test pricing and look back to see how the sales figures were affected.
Multi-channel : EPoS systems provide the flexibility for you to expand your business through various selling channels, and acts as a central platform where you can manage and view all selling activity as a whole as well as for an individual channel. The fact that it keeps detailed information about products means the task of moving a business online for example also becomes much easier. The more opportunities you have to sell, the better, but that doesn't mean that all channels work for everyone. For example, perhaps you own a local convenience store; should you provide self service tills or online ordering? Maybe you would sell more if you offered delivery services? All of this can be tested via an EPoS system and the answer will become clear. Your goods' sales figures can be presented by shopping channel so you will clearly see which is working for you and is therefore worth the extra investment.
Customer service : Instantly knowing what products are available in your other stores, or which restaurants in the area have seats available, is a great benefit if you are out of a product or fully booked. Using cross store information, you can make sure a customer never has to leave empty handed or be turned away, by directing them to other options. This ability to continue to provide service by having all product data available to you means you business will have the best chance of making a sale and pleasing the customer.
Ultimate Outdoors, a growing, family run business, found itself struggling to manage its stock across its five stores. It was experiencing issues with overnight polling, and as a result plans for an ecommerce website were being delayed. John Smale, buyer and former store manager at Ultimate Outdoors, explains: "The business had five stores and the visibility of stock across the estate was becoming an issue for head office. Furthermore the business was looking to go online, but with their old system in place, they would not be able manage the stores and an ecommerce site". John continues, "The data was not live, it was polled overnight. So in effect the data was out of date. Not only did you have to wait overnight for the system to update its stock levels, but when there was a communication problem it turned it into 2 or 3 day old data. So when you are trying to manage stock and replenish, you were always half a week behind which is pretty useless when you work in a fast moving retail environment".
With access to live data becoming critical, Ultimate Outdoors invested in a new EPoS system from Cybertill. "The key thing was real time data," said John. He adds: "The instant updates of data, sales, stockholding, prices, products, customer information, movement of stock between branches were critical. I was working in the store then, and I remember when it came in, it was quite revolutionary and radical to what we had before. Head office explaining if you sell something in another store it will have gone from the system".
After installing Cybertill, Ultimate Outdoors created three different websites all serving different markets. "A huge benefit is linking the ecommerce sites into the Cybertill system. The product file is the same so stock levels are visible across the stores and websites at any one time. The stock data is also visible to customers and we can see customer information from all three sites straight away," comments John.
Meanwhile, Vend shares some positive experiences by its customers that manage their stock through an EPoS system. Hugh MacIntyre, owner of The Little Mule Café in Melbourne, was pleased to put a stop to the guesswork: "We can get rid of underperforming menu items and actually be able to tell someone if we have something in stock".
In addition, Ingrid Starnes, who used to manually manage her two fashion stores and 10 stockists by hand through a system of online spread sheets, comments: "Having all systems talking to each other is what makes this amazing. When we make a sale in-store in Vend it updates our online inventory numbers and sends the sale invoice through. We don't have to do anything except look after the customer."

By Deron Wagner | January 13, 2006
The Nasdaq snapped its seven-day winning streak yesterday, but turnover declined as stocks corrected in an orderly fashion. The major indices once again traded in a narrow, sideways range throughout the first half of the day, but the bears arrived with two hours remaining in the session. It was opposite of recent market action in which stocks had been lifted by strength in the late afternoon. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrials closed lower by 0.6% and 0.7% respectively, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.6%. Considering that the tech-heavy Nasdaq had gained 5.7% in the first seven days of 2006, yesterday's 0.6% loss was nominal. The small-cap Russell 2000 and mid-cap S&P 400 indices took a rest and corrected from their record highs, losing 0.6% each.
On a technical level, the most important thing about yesterday is that volume declined in sync with the drop in stock prices. Total volume in the Nasdaq was 15% lighter than the previous day's level, while volume in the NYSE declined by 5%. This is significant because it indicates that institutions, who make up more than half of the market's daily volume, were not heavily selling shares of stock. Rather, the drop on lighter volume tells us the bulls were merely taking a break, but the bears were not waiting to break down the back door. Confirming this was the fact that the Nasdaq's market internals were barely negative. Declining volume exceeded advancing volume in the Nasdaq exchange, but only by a margin of less than 3 to 2. NYSE internals were slightly worse, but still not overly bearish.
When The Wagner Daily newsletter was launched back in 2002, Barclays' iShares, S&P Select Sector SPDRS, and Merrill Lynch's HOLDRS were the only major families of exchange traded funds (ETFs) that covered a wide array of industry sectors. As such, our sector analysis over the past three years has primarily focused on ETFs from within those families. Since then, the growing popularity of ETFs has prompted firms to bring new families of ETFs to the marketplace. Many of these new ETF families are still obscure, but one group that has attracted our attention over the past few months are the PowerShares family of exchange traded funds.
If you visit the PowerShares web site and browse the investment products, you will notice that their offerings are unique in several ways. First, they have a handful of sector ETFs that are not represented by any of the other families. Nanotech (PXN), Home Construction (PKB), Food and Beverage (PBJ), and China (PGJ) are just a few of the interesting sector ETFs that are not found anywhere else. The iShares family of funds offers an ETF that tracks the Chinese Xinhua 25 market (FXI), but the PowerShares China ETF (PGJ) tracks a diverse mix of sectors within mainland China instead of just one index. In addition to more unusual sectors such as Nanotech and Water Resources, the PowerShares family of ETFs also covers the mainstream sectors such as Semiconductors (PSI), Oil and Gas (PXJ), Biotech (PBE), and Utilities (PUI).
In addition to covering sectors that are missed by other ETF families, one thing we really like about the PowerShares is the diversity of the underlying stocks within each sector. Unlike the HOLDRS, in which two or three stocks typically represent 30 to 50% of the ETF value and only 20 stocks comprise the entire value of the ETF, the PowerShares ETFs are truly represented by a large number of stocks. Further, PowerShares are able to change the selection of stocks within each sector ETF, unlike the HOLDRS in which the same companies have been represented since they were launched. This provides true diversity to the PowerShares.
Because the PowerShares family of ETFs was only launched in the middle of last year, average daily volume levels are obviously much lower than the equivalent sector ETFs in the iShares or HOLDRS families. However, it is important to remember that the average daily volume level in an ETF is much less significant than the average volume of an individual stock. We would never consider trading a stock with an average daily volume of less than 100,000 shares because the demand may not be present when it comes time to sell the shares. But with an ETF, that is never a problem. Remember that the bid/ask prices of an ETF will change throughout the day, mirroring the formulated prices of the underlying stocks, regardless of whether or not any buyers or sellers are present. As such, there will always be a market when you want to trade in an ETF. Actual liquidity is not a factor on ETFs, even if they trade less than 100,000 shares per day, but we confess that the spreads may sometimes be more than a few pennies wide. If this occurs, using a limit order will easily solve the problem.
We wanted to bring our subscribers up to speed on the PowerShares because we have begun to monitor the charts of those ETFs and will be presenting them as "official" trade setups in the near future as well. Although we will continue to stalk the iShares, S&P Select Sector SPDRS, and HOLDRS, the PowerShares family of ETFs provides us with yet another weapon in our arsenal. Subscribers should be on the lookout for a brand new, updated sheet that displays the symbols for each of the ETFs we follow, grouped together by industry sector. The sheet will automatically be e-mailed to all regular and monthly subscribers upon completion.
Be aware that quarterly earnings season kicks into gear next week and, as always, is likely to have a large effect on the direction of the market. The major indices have obviously been acting very well in the new year, and yesterday's light volume correction did not change this fact. However, it is prudent to be aware of major companies that are reporting because the reaction to their reports typically affects the entire sector in which they belong. If there are any sector ETFs you are presently long or considering buying, we recommend you review next week's earnings dates on one of numerous financial websites. Yahoo! Finance is a free one that provides a comprehensive earnings calendar.
There are no new trade setups for today, but we are stalking GLD, FXI, SMH, and SWH for potential entry on a pullback. As always, we will send an intraday e-mail alert if/when we enter any new positions.
