PR and SEO Are Completely Different…Right? Not quite.
Public relations, SEO and PPC are all major players in the arsenal of a modern-day marketer. But, like all other elements of the marketing mix, these verticals should not be siloed in the overall strategy and, instead, must work in tandem.
For many years, that was the assumption. The two entities worked alongside each other, but never truly with each other. As the digital landscape continues to permeate and influence our everyday lives, marketers have finally found the intersection of PR and SEO.
In PR, subject lines make-or-break-it for a good pitch. A great subject line is concise, immediately grabs the attention of a reporter and makes them want to open up your email to see what story you have to offer.
In SEO, the same rules apply to title tags. They are a crucial aspect of what Google uses to determine the content of a webpage in relation to a search query. Not only that, but like subject lines, title tags grab the attention of a user and give them a taste of what information can be found by clicking through.
Whether you're writing a killer byline to contribute to a national publication, or developing an educational blog post based on a high volume of user searches, content is king, and that conviction pervades every marketing tactic in the book these days. And if you're in PR, you definitely have grammatical gifts and proofreading power. That skill is necessary and valuable, pretty much, anywhere.
I'm hoping you read tomato in two different ways. Regardless, here's my point: PR practitioners call it pitching, whereas SEOs call it outreach. But guess what… it's the same thing. If you have a talent for creating mutually beneficial relationships with reporters and generating relevant stories for the right audiences, it'll be the gift that keeps on giving if and when you make the move to digital marketing.
As the saying goes, where there's a great pitch, there's a beautiful media list behind it. The same rule applies to outreach in SEO. Having a firm understanding of the ever-changing beats and topics of bloggers, influencers and reporters are crucial to both verticals.
So How Can You Make the Move to SEO?
My journey started out at Temple University, where I studied strategic communication with a focus in public relations. While there, I held various leadership positions within the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA), which introduced me to a vast network of professionals in all verticals of communications and marketing.
To begin immersing yourself into the digital marketing world, find organizations and events in your area that will expose you to the right people.
Following graduation, I worked in public relations for two years, telling the stories of clients in various industries including emerging technology enterprises, professional and financial services, and non-profit. During those two years, I learned how to form meaningful relationships with reporters, bloggers and influencers; I developed an ability to create relevant and actionable content on behalf of my clients; and I began to understand the impact that words can have on an individual from a marketing perspective.
I began to connect my experiences in PR to the job descriptions I saw on sites for SEO-focused positions. Because there is a great deal of overlap, realizing the skills that you already have that translate will help you when it comes to submitting cover letters and interviewing.
Making the switch to digital marketing was certainly a challenge, but I felt that, for me, it was a natural progression. Having only joined Seer in March of 2017, I am still learning new concepts and tactics every single day in order to become a proficient SEO and overall marketer. You should know going into it that it's not going to be an overnight process.
There is definitely going to be a learning curve, but do as much preliminary research that you can to boost your SEO knowledge. To do so, you can read industry resources like Moz's Beginners Guide to SEO, Moz's blog, and our very own Seer blog. It also pays to become certified in Google Analytics.
"In college I majored in Strategic Communications with an emphasis in PR and had a variety of PR internships. After college I ended up in an SEO company conducting outreach and monitoring the press for our clients.
I'm an SEO Manager and began working at Seer for 3 years ago, after graduating Temple University with a degree in Strategic Communications and a concentration in Public Relations. The majority of my PR experience came from participating in internships and student organizations like Temple's student-run PR agency, PRowl, and PRSSA while I was in college. My school really encouraged the importance of getting first hand experience and balancing that with coursework to get a more well-rounded education on PR.
I held internships at a nonprofit museum, a children's hospital and a marketing agency, in order to get my arms around what was really out there. Ultimately, I decided I liked the agency side (much to my surprise!) but wanted to get into a field where I could better measure the success of all the effort and work I was putting in, which I found to be difficult at that time in the PR experience I had, which ultimately drove me to pursue digital marketing.
I would say that it's not the work itself that prepared me most for transitioning from PR to SEO. Rather, it's the mindset of PR and SEO both being a type of earned media, which requires a level of hustle and determination to get the results you want and need. Being in PR and having to meet deadlines, talk to clients, talk to reporters, pitch story ideas, etc. and do that on a constant basis was a great primer to having the communication skills necessary to work at a hands-on, fast-paced agency like Seer. I think PR also prepares you to really think on your feet and flourish in chaos a bit, which is helpful when you're handling really complex projects or juggling several priorities.
I g raduated from Temple University in 2013 majoring in Communications with a focus in Strategic Communications. While at Temple, I was Director of Temple's student run PR firm, PRowl Public Relations.
My past life in PR taught me that whether it be a press release or personal message, you need to address the question, "so what?". To do this, research is key. Here at Seer, we don't do template or bulk messaging. Each message is crafted for the individual by referencing past articles an author has written or, how this piece of content we're pitching will impact the audience on the site. This is all done through audience and keyword research before we pitch them. This enables us to even know if it's worth pitching and taking someone's time.
One of the reasons why I'm attracted to SEO is the ability to track user interaction with content pitched and revenue that can be made from relationship building or outreach. With analytics such as Google Analytics, you can see referral link data which can include the number of users who came to a client's sites via the content pitched and if the user converted or are being influenced by our content.
"I spent 2 years as the Public Relations Director of the University of Colorado's Program Council. This job was my first foray into marketing, and it was actually something I fell into almost by accident.
During this time I did everything from write press releases to manage our social media postings. I handled all of the press coverage for our large shows, including Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Aziz Ansari and Robin Williams.
I studied public relations at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Throughout my studies and experiences working in PR, I learned about adapting communication to the organization's brand voice and ensuring all content is "on-brand". The same concept is just as important in SEO as it is in PR.
When optimizing a site, content that aligns with the brand's identity will see the most success in driving quality traffic and conversions. Optimizing for a keyword that is not in line with the brand may still drive traffic, but may miss the mark in terms of bringing in the appropriate target audience and nurturing a qualified lead.
I studied Media Business & Entrepreneurship at Temple University with my focus being on the television industry. My program offered courses in advertising, communications, and multimedia theory, with the purpose being to create graduates who were well versed in running and operating enterprises that created or distributed media content.
Working at Seer has definitely been a bit of a paradigm shift but some of my biggest takeaways from college have stuck with me, and fundamentally defined the way in which I work here. Effective client communication and a team approach to solving problems were a big part of my program at Temple and I use those skills every day to provide the best possible solutions for our clients needs.

Christ is the truth, and the Holy Spirit, who guides the church, is the Spirit of truth.
Satan by contrast, is the father of lies.
As followers of Christ we must be committed to the truth. This means both our words should be honest and that our actions should reflect Christ's integrity.
Speaking the truth in love is not always easy, convenient, or pleasant, but it is necessary if the church is going to do Christ's work in the world.
For the week ahead, let us all remember . . .
God's loving attributes are desperately needed in the world today. Through God's Spirit, we can show such sensitivity to people around us, reflecting God's goodness and honesty to them. But we must seek His righteousness before we demonstrate it to others and let His light shine in us before we can be lights ourselves. We may want Christ to rule and bring great and visible victories in our life but often Christ's work is quiet; and it happens according to His perfect timing, not ours. He will bring justice to the nations.
For the week ahead, remember . . .
Love becomes more complex as we age. Relationships are complicated. Unconditional love seems unattainable as personalities clash. But oh! the indescribable miracle when love happens despite the details.
Love is made complete when both individuals love the Lord even more than they love each other. Love is a fruit of the Spirit, so it makes sense for a believer to exhibit more fruit than an unbeliever. We have on Spirit assistance!
God never calls us to do something for Him that He doesn't empower us to do if we are willing to do the work and time.
Take the time to get to know God in an intimate way. As your relationship with Him grows, you will move up in rank and are assigned harder missions. Your purpose on earth is to shine God's love to a lost, dying world.
Open your ears and your heart to the Lord and be excited about your new future serving Him in truth and spirit.


1. Consumers demand data control: Yes, data is king, but increasing pressure to protect the gold mine of information and government regulations is changing the landscape. Don't purchase data with the consumer's consent and a note of caution: a Deloitte report shows 71% of purchased data is … inaccurate. Your best bet on collecting data? Go right to the source—your customers. Develop innovative ideas to get what you need the old-fashioned way: people and organizations voluntarily providing it.
2. Alternative lending will surge: It makes sense that non-bank lending will continue to grow, not only was 2018 a big year for the industry but, more importantly, 80% of small business loans are rejected. Consequently, nontraditional financing is a must. There are scores of options available, but a growing trend is peer-to-peer lending.
3. All about personalization: Want to make your customers happy? Offer them a personalized experience. Custom offers, "channel of choice" communication strategies and recommendations based on past purchases are just three of the many options. Bottom line, according to a 2018 Epsilon study: You work for your clients and customers so tailor the relationship to their needs and desires.
4. Surging subscriptions: Yes, subscription growth is slowing, but it's an industry still growing across the country by 1% per month, with food, beauty, apparel and lifestyle subscriptions box being the most popular. If you're a retailer with a digital presence—or an innovative business person who develops a custom subscription model—here's why it's important: Subscribers place three times more orders than non-subscribing customers.
5. Social responsibility: Granted, Baton Rouge is behind the curve on this one, but make no mistake: Companies are being forced by a demanding public to make social responsibility a factor in how they do business. Rather than focus on areas where our community isn't as progressive, pay attention to where this region is exemplary: encouraging volunteerism and corporate philanthropy. In other words, this doesn't have to be a foray into the culture war.


Electric solar is the future. Alternative resources of energy must be explored. Power outages and rolling blackouts will continue; electricity rates will continue to climb; fossil fuels will continue to be consumed at an alarming pace. Our cities and our Central Valley are smoggy and our waterways are polluted.
If we persist in creating greenhouse gases and in contributing to the warming of our atmosphere, we invite further disaster. All told, we must consider alternative energy not as a luxury, but as a necessity for survival. Solar energy is practicable right now, and solar systems can be installed right now with great savings from the State of California.
With good cash rebates and tax credits in effect, California has tried to encourage solar installation among its citizens. The fiscal crisis has already had its negative effect on these financial incentives, however. The authorizing legislation called for a 15% tax credit in 2003, and 7.5% credit for 2004-2005. The enabling legislation sunsets on January 1, 2006.
The cash rebate was originally $3.80 per watt, or $3,800 per kilowatt, but the budget crunch caused it to be lowered to $3.20 per watt. The schools solar program has been canceled for lack of funds. If you are even thinking about electric solar, explore it soon so you can take advantage of any financial incentives that remain in effect.


In 2015, the population of Nigeria was billed at 182.2 million people - but since many people live in slums and the government notoriously never conducts a real, efficient population census, the real population is unknown. With a population growth rate of two to three percent every year, Nigeria's population is expected to continue to skyrocket.
The effects of overpopulation in Nigeria are already acute - Lagos is currently one of the largest cities in the world with an estimated population of about 21 million, even though its land mass is disproportionate to that number of people.
In a recent report,the United Nations has said Nigeria's population is set to overtake the US' by 2050, and could exceed 400 million. By 2100, our population is forecast to exceed one billion and could potentially surpass China; even though our entire country is about the size of Texas - a single state in the US. The current population of US is over 322 million, while Nigeria has more than 180 million.
The agency listed both nations among nine countries that will account for half of the world's population growth from 7.6 billion in 2017 to 9.8 billion in 2050. The other countries are India, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Tanzania, the United States, Uganda and Indonesia.
These numbers are staggering, and that's not all. The 47 least-developed countries have the highest fertility rates of 4.3 births per woman. And populations in 26 African countries (Nigeria included) are projected to expand to at least double their current size.
Considering the fact that the world that we live in is getting hotter due to climate change and 30% of the world's population could literally start dying of heat, and the fact that the earth is NOT expanding, population increase is something that we should definitely be looking to control as soon as possible. A combination of over population and heat is disease's best environment; and we're terrified.

[Update] Madden NFL 21 Next-Gen Upgrade Goes Live A Day Early
Update: EA Sports has updated us that the fix for the PlayStation 5 version will be implemented prior to the December 4 launch. We have updated the headline accordingly.
Original Story – 12/3/2020 @ 6 am CT
Prior to the last-gen launch of Madden NFL 21, EA Sports announced that those who purchased the game on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One would be able to upgrade to the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X version for free thanks to its Dual Entitlement system. The new-gen version is set to launch on Friday, December 4. However, EA Sports has announced that those who are upgrading from the last-gen version will have access to the new-gen version today, a day earlier than expected.
Unfortunately, there's some bad news for those upgrading from PS4 to PS5: The online is not currently available, but it can still be downloaded and played offline. According to EA Tiburon, the development team discovered a previously unknown issue with the PS5 version of Madden NFL 21 late in the final testing phase. The issue only occurs when the PS5 version is connected to the EA servers, so until the fix (which the team has already submitted for testing) is patched into the live game, EA Tiburon is turning off the PS5 version's ability to connect to the EA servers.
This bug only affects the PlayStation 5 version as of now, but EA Tiburon cautions that it will be monitoring the Xbox Series X/S version closely to make sure it doesn't also suffer from the same bug. If the issue does end up popping up on the new Xbox version, EA Tiburon might have to temporarily disconnect the online servers for that version as well. For now, the online works as expected on Xbox Series X/S.
If you own the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One version of Madden NFL 21 digitally, you can download your free new-gen version of the game by looking in your library of the new console of the same console family (PS4 owners get a free copy on PS5, while Xbox One owners get a free copy on Xbox Series X/S). If you bought the physical version, you can contact EA Help to validate your purchase and receive your free upgrade from EA Sports.
Madden NFL 21 launched on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on August 28. It is available to download on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S for those who bought the last-gen version beginning today. Otherwise, it launches on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S tomorrow, December 4. For more on the changes the new-gen version brings over the last-gen version, head here.
For more on how Madden NFL 21's Dual Entitlement works, you can head to their FAQs page. For updates on the issue that's affecting the PS5 version, and whether it also affects the Xbox Series X/S version, follow the Madden NFL Twitter account.

Lucky Luke, auch Lucky Luke – Daisy Town oder Lucky Luke – Ein neuer Mann für Daisy Town, ist eine belgisch-französische Comicverfilmung aus dem Jahr 1971. Der Band Daisy Town der Lucky-Luke-Reihe basiert auf diesem Film. Die Frankreich-Premiere fand am 20. Dezember 1971 statt.

Handlung
Der einsame Cowboy Lucky Luke kommt in das neu gegründete Wüstenstädtchen Daisy Town, in dem mangels eines Sheriffs die Gesetzlosigkeit herrscht und Schlägereien und Schießereien an der Tagesordnung sind. Als es ihm gelingt, einige Gesetzlose ins Gefängnis zu bringen, wird er begeistert zum Sheriff ernannt. Als jedoch die Gebrüder Dalton in der Stadt auftauchen und sich bei den Leuten beliebt machen, werden die Warnungen des neuen Gesetzeshüters ignoriert. Gerade als der Anführer der Vier, Joe, sich zum Bürgermeister wählen lassen will, sät Lucky Luke Zwietracht zwischen den Brüdern. So treten sie als Kriminelle in Erscheinung und müssen die Stadt verlassen. Kurz darauf werden die Daltons von einem nahegelegenen Indianerstamm gefangen genommen.

Joe ersinnt, an den Pfahl gefesselt, einen Plan, mit dem sich die Daltons an Daisy Town rächen und gleichzeitig die Freiheit zurück erlangen wollen: Er hetzt die Indianer auf die Stadt auf, indem er ihnen vor dem technischen Fortschritt durch die "Bleichgesichter" Angst macht. Joe ist zunächst scheinbar erfolgreich, denn der Häuptling ruft den Krieg gegen die Bleichgesichter aus. Allerdings geht der Plan nur zur Hälfte auf, denn anstatt die Daltons freizulassen, liefert der Häuptling sie wegen des hohen Kopfgeldes den Behörden aus. Lucky Luke beobachtet die Kriegsvorbereitungen der Indianer, wird aber beim Versuch, sich während des Kriegstanzes des Medizinmannes davonzuschleichen, entdeckt. Dank der Schnelligkeit Jolly Jumpers und seines namensgebenden Glücks kann er aber entkommen und die Siedler in Daisy Town in gewohnt wortkarger Form über die Vorgänge informieren.

Es wird versucht, Hilfe der Kavallerie anzufordern, jedoch haben die Indianer die Stadt inzwischen eingeschlossen, sodass die Kuriere zwar lädiert, aber zumindest lebend nach Daisy Town zurückkehren, sehr zum Leidwesen des Totengräbers. Selbst dessen "Haustier", der Aasgeier, wird abgefangen und muss gerupft den Rückzug antreten. Also ersinnt Lucky Luke einen Schlachtplan. Er lässt die Siedler ihre Planwagen einspannen und in die beginnende Schlacht ziehen, wobei sie ständig im Kreis fahren. Die Indianer umreiten die Siedler wiederum in einem Kreis, allerdings in entgegengesetzter Richtung. Auf Lukes jeweiligen Befehl wechseln nun die Siedler ständig ihre Fahrtrichtung, was die Indianer ebenfalls jedes Mal mit einem Wechsel der Richtung beantworten. Inzwischen erreicht ein Trupp der Kavallerie zufällig den Schauplatz und reiht sich ebenfalls in die Kampfformation ein: Jetzt werden die Indianer von ihnen umkreist, und auch die Kavallerie macht jeden Richtungswechsel mit, bis den Indianern schwindelig wird und sie den Kampf beenden.

Mit den Indianern wird ein Friedensvertrag abgeschlossen und Luke soll zum Ehrenbürger erklärt werden. Jedoch erreicht in diesem Moment die Nachricht über einen Goldfund die Stadt, sodass alle Bewohner Daisy Town verlassen und der Ort zu einer Geisterstadt wird. Lucky Luke reitet gleichmütig dem Sonnenuntergang entgegen.

Lieder
Die Filmlieder und ihre Interpreten sind Poor Lonesome Cowboy von Pat Woods, Voilà le quadrille! von Philippe Clay, Dalton Theme von Jean Stout und Daisy Town Saloon Song von Nicole Croisille.

Q: Correlation coefficients for spatial polygons data frame I have a spatial polygons data frame and I am interested in a matrix of correlation coefficients for my variables.
The command
    >cor(df)

returns the following error:
    >Error in cor(MergedData) : supply both 'x' and 'y' or a matrix-like 'x'

I can get pairwise coefficients if I run the following command
    >cor.test(df$var1, df$var2)

However, since I have 15 variables, I would need to run over 200 commands. Is there a way I could do it faster, i.e. return a matrix of correlation coefficients all in one table?
Thanks in advance!

A: cor only works on data frames or matrices. You need to pull out the data slot from the SpatialPolygonsDataFrame:
grd <- GridTopology(c(1,1), c(1,1), c(10,10))
polys <- as(grd, "SpatialPolygons")
centroids <- coordinates(polys)
x <- centroids[,1]
y <- centroids[,2]
z <- 1.4 + 0.1*x + 0.2*y + 0.002*x*x
ex_1.7 <- SpatialPolygonsDataFrame(polys,
                                   data=data.frame(x=x, y=y, z=z, row.names=row.names(polys)))

class(slot(ex_1.7, "data"))
cor(slot(ex_1.7, "data"))

Yesterday, we concluded our deeeeep dive into the Beatitudes. Today, Jesus moves right into how we're supposed to live in this dying, dark world.
Yesterday, we begin a look at eight "I am" statements Jesus made that further define who he is. The first: the Bread of Life.
It's Jesus' final week on the planet.
Some Greeks came to the disciples and asked to see Jesus, prompting one of the most awesome scenes in the entire Bible.


It keeps your homepage or blog page short and focused. Your readers see only the brief description of the posts. When they need to see more information, they can just click on the posts to read more.
It makes the WordPress design clean and clear. It gives your readers "a space to breath". If you're a designer, you'll know that using white space well is an important key of a successful design. That's why most WordPress templates use excerpt.
While using excerpt is very common, it has a problem: the number of characters or words in the excerpt is usually fixed by the theme. A number X might looks fine in a language, but might not in another language.
For example: assuming we use a WordPress blog theme like EightyDays, the design looks good with 3 lines of excerpt content. That is approximately 20 words in English. If you're Arabian or Russian, 20 words might have only 2 lines because the characters are different. That changes the design and makes your blog looks bad.
Another example: if you're using a WordPress theme that has option to change the layout of the blog page from 2-columns grid of content (like EightyDays) or 1 column of content (like Floral), the number of words in the excerpt needs to adapt to match the layout. Usually the 2-columns design requires shorter excerpt length than the 1-column one.
And because of that, the excerpt length (or excerpt limit) should be able to change.
There are basically 3 ways to change the excerpt length.
The automatic excerpt: that is generated from the content of the post. Usually, the automatic excerpt takes 55 first words from the post content. The number of words (55), of course, is what we're going to change.
Not many people know and use the manual excerpt! It's a big mistake.
Regarding the SEO, some SEO plugin such as Yoast SEO automatically takes the excerpt content and display it as the description in the search results. Using manual excerpt, you can customize this description and increase the click-through-rate.
To enter the manual excerpt, simply enter the content in the Excerpt meta box below the editor as shown in the screenshot above. That's very simple.
But just note that if you use manual excerpt, the read more link might disappear. This depends on the WordPress theme you're using. It doesn't always happen, but happens in most cases. If you want to keep the read more link, you should take a look at automatic excerpt.
Remember to change 30 to the number of words you want to show in the excerpt.
When using code, it's recommended to use a child theme. Because when your the current WordPress theme updates, your customization will be lost.
The 3rd way and the easiest way to change excerpt length is using a WordPress plugin. We have researched and here are the 3 best WordPress plugins to change excerpt length.
This plugin is very simple. It adds only 1 option in the Settings → Reading page for excerpt length. You just need to enter the number of words in the excerpt and done!
This plugin not only helps you to customize the excerpt length, but also the excerpt more text. It's similar to both the plugins above.
These plugins are very simple and very lightweight. They don't affect your website loading speed, but provide a very good way to customize the website without touching code.
We have tested these plugins and use them for some of our customers. It works nicely.
Excerpt is a small piece, but the important one, in your WordPress design. Customizing it is a common question. We hope the solutions we provided in this article can help you to control it and make it look perfect in your website.

In this Bolivian story, a man remembers his life while on a journey which will help him expiate his sins and which will result in his death. The focus on the story is on a man who has betrayed everyone he knows. He is planning to perform an ancient ritual dance which will end with his life being taken. He journeys from where he was living back to the village where most of the people he wronged still live. As he journeys, carrying his distinctive dance costume, his story is told in flashbacks. Once he gets there, he gets involved in the affairs of the villagers once more.

1000 Solutions - March 19, 2018
Our challenge to Mexico: solutions to make for a cleaner, more prosperous future
- Photo by Traffic in Mexico City (© 2007 WRI/EMBAR)
Written by Rémy Kalter
His trip will include a conference and panel discussion hosted at the Club de industriales, where he will be joined by - amongst others - members of two startups - Sistema Bio and Kinetech Power Systems - and the main cleantech multiplier in the city, Green Momentum.
Kinetech Power Systems have developed a flywheel energy storage system that can provide long-lasting, non-toxic and environmentally friendly power. It works by using the motion of a spinning mass, called a rotor, which spins in a nearly frictionless enclosure. If and when power is lost, the inertia allows the rotor to continue spinning and the resulting kinetic energy is converted to electricity.
Sistema.bio is a hybrid reactor biodigester that transforms the manure of animals into biogas and a potent natural fertilizer. They have also established a program to try and get this solution into the hands of as many farmers as possible (see video).
They have received investment from the social fund of ENGIE, a partner to the Solar Impulse Foundation, and Sistema.bio hope to develop more research so that their biogas products can generate thermal energy, electric power and to allow this technology to be transferred to millions of farms across Mexico.
Bertrand's visit will also include a visit to Green Momentum's whose work includes reducing reliance on fossil fuels to the redesigning of infrastructure, focusing on clean energy, hydrocarbons, energy storage and electric mobility.
At P39, we will be meeting with XiliNat, who have developed a sugar substitute based made from agricultural waste that would otherwise be burnt. This solution helps to tackle obesity, which affects some 7 in 10 people in Mexico, while also reducing the country's CO2 emissions; 40% of Mexico's emissions come as a result of the burning of agricultural waste. Their CEO Javier Larragoiti was also selected as one of Latin America's 35 innovators under 35 last year, and you can watch him explain his product in the video below.
We'll also meet up with the makers of Fungicel, who have developed a new packaging material made from fungi that could replace traditional forms of packaging like styrofoam. Between a quarter and a third of all domestic waste is packaging, and while Fungicel is not a suitable substitute for all of it, they are in the right market to try and make this work, given that Mexico is the world's fourth largest producer of household appliances.
Have you got a solution that seems to fit the bill? Then join the World Alliance for Efficient Solutions and submit your solution to be considered as one of our 1000 Efficient Solutions that protect the environment in a profitable way.
From there, Bertrand Piccard will move to Cancun to speak at the World Forum on Energy Regulation, where he will renew his call to regulators to take up the challenge of designing modern regulation that will help pull clean innovation into the market.
As Bertrand tells us, the focus on only pushing innovation by using public money to provide subsidies and push innovation, while still good, "can only bring good ideas so far. If they don't fulfil a need, they will founder once they come into contact with the market."
"If we continue to allow people to pollute as they do today, most of the innovations in this field will remain unused. So conditions must be created to not just push but pull innovations to market, and one way to do it is to have ambitious regulations to help make that happen."
This will be the message Bertrand shares with the community of regulators, asking them to recognize that "our liberal system, which is so regulation averse, will benefit from a legal framework that will oblige people to use more innovative and efficient technologies. Not only to protect the environment, but also to create jobs and boost economic development."

Coal shortage, raw material shortages, excessive dependence on domestic equipment manufacturers and non conducive Government policies are some major challenges faced by the sector. In case of Oil and Gas based plants, the rising prices of oil globally, fall in currency value of rupee and reduction in the domestic gas production has impacted severely. The thermal energy sector has to face severe fuel and equipment shortage.
Tell us about your company, multi-discipline engineering solutions offered and your core competencies?
also offer a complete range of documentation, technical information creation and over all information management services. Citec is unique in offering such a combination of services.
Our core competence lies in power plants based on engine, boiler and turbine technology.
We shall continue developing services to add more values to our customer. Product Data Management (PDM) services being in the focus of our development efforts.
What kind of specialized services do you provide with regard to setting up of power plants? At what stage of the plant life-cycle do you get involved and up to what point?
Our Major USP is standardization of Modules/ structures in a project. Modularization is a way to save cost and time, the end result is a factory made product ensuring the use of all recommended standards and a reliable quality of product. We can also take care of the documentation part of the project to improve time-to-market and cost efficiency offering a total concept. We see great opportunities in the power sector where there are not many other companies that can offer similar complete solutions.
Citec has been involved in power plant projects worldwide since 1987. We work closely with our customers in projects, providing everything from single discipline engineering to turnkey designs including concept, basic and detailed engineering, as well as documentation and final as-built drawings. We are involved from the very beginning of the project starting from feasibility study, further with project initiation, engineering management, permitting assistance, procurement management, and construction management to commissioning management of the projects.
What kind of customization do you offer to your power sector clients based in India?
Divergent site conditions in the Indian power plants demand a lot of customization which Citec has been offering project to project. Also we know it is conventional in India to have space constraints for almost every plant. We have ensured optimum utilization of available space in such cases offering the best possible layouts. We have undertaken relocation projects and also extensions to existing plants where demands of minimum repercussion to existing set up have been challenging.
We also have lot of expertise in global projects which brings added value to the Indian projects. We use advanced 3D tools like PDMS, PDS, and SP3D with lot of our own customization, which brings a lively model to customer for easy review and comment, which helps the client make a faster decision on handling changes.
How far your engineering solutions and designs are effective in terms of lowering project cost, maximizing plant efficiency and minimizing environmental damage?
Competition is really hard in our market and so it is important that we challenge ourselves to continue to be the best choice for our customers. We secure the total project costs by Citec standardized processes and tailor made services. We try to add value to our services through exploring ways to reduce the project built up time for example, prefabrication. Ease and economy of transportation, equipment handling studies, noise reduction in case of plants close to residential setups are also factors we consider during design.
Citec provides increasing amounts of site activities for customers and therefore we see environmental management as an important part of our management system. Reducing emissions and material usage, developing engineering opportunities for recycling, energy minimization and pollution prevention are a part of our practices.
We have adopted strategies like careful studying of inputs, planning the best resources, research, close interaction with customer, implementation of all standards thus aiming for optimized projects and customer satisfaction.
How did your company fare in FY2012-13 in terms of orders booked from the Indian power sector?
We have drastically growth in domestic markets. In FY12-13 we have almost doubled the revenue compared to FY11-12 and still we are moving aggressively to reach our targets. We have bagged consecutive orders from ISGEC and improved cooperation's throughout last year. We also bagged a critical project from Siemens India after a year long relationship which is extremely important. Now Citec will be a key engineering associate to Siemens to execute similar projects in the near future. We have provided our multidiscipline engineering consultancy services to three projects from Forbes India. We were associated with Lahmeyer-India for one project, seeing all these FY13-14 will be very promising year for Citec.
Could you share with us details about the major power projects you are associated with?
One of the major projects under work has been a 1x300 MW power plant in Estonia, where our scope involves structural steel design of the boiler, with total steel tonnage of 8000 tons (approx.) Another is a solar power station of 1x121 MW, our scope includes civil and structural design for whole plant consisting of basic engineering and detailed engineering excluding solar receiving station. We are also working on a 3x67.5 MW power plant located in Kalinganagar - Odisha, 3x16.5 MW cogeneration power plant in Saudi Arabia, 1 x 32 Mw cogeneration power plant in South Africa, Some more in the list are engine based power plants located globally.
Could you comment on the future technology pointers for power plants in India?
In India, despite of high focus and subsidies offered by the government on renewable energies, thermal power plant continues to dominate electricity production and will do so for many years to come. Environmental regulations and accountability of power plant owners is driving for clean power production and contributing to the conservations of earth resources. So the future definitely drives towards High efficiency, Low Maintenance of ultra super critical technology to minimize emissions and lower fuel costs with zero wastage.
What are the challenges faced by the Indian Power sector as of now?
the rising prices of oil globally, fall in currency value of rupee and reduction in the domestic gas production has impacted severely. The thermal energy sector has to face severe fuel and equipment shortage.
Do you see turnaround for the power sector in the current financial year?
Some developments have been inspiring confidence in the sector such as Coal India Ltd has recently agreed on ensuring a minimum supply of 80% of contracted quantity of the coal to thermal power plants. Proposals to allow the involvement of private sector in further exploration and evacuation of coal are also under consideration. With proactive Government involvement in undertaking favorable policy amendments and increasing participation of private players the future of the Indian power sector looks slightly more assured for the latter half of 2013.
India's new gas pricing regime too will boost investment in exploration and production, which will enhance energy security and help consumers in the power sector. End of the year we see an upward trend.
Going forward, what are your immediate and long term plans for expansion in India?
No doubt, the Indian Markets has a huge potential for executing Citec operations as we provide Engineering, consulting and information management services for Energy and Civil sectors. We have approximately 30% of revenue inflow from India alone and we aim to still add to this number.
We are also positive about one Indian acquisition in the coming years.
Citec Group has a target to double the turnover by 2015 and the maximum growth is expected from India. We have to grow three times by 2015. The headcount for the Indian office is estimated to rise from 350 to approximately 800. So we have definitely got a long way to go in India as well.


Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov previously rejected a plea from Rep. Ron Estes, R-Kansas, that the girls be reunited with their father, a U.S. Air Force recruiter in Wichita. Antonov told Estes that the Russian citizen has been a victim of "discrimination and psychological pressure" in the federal criminal case and pointed to a Russian court ruling that found the children should remain in Russia.
Osipova was pregnant with their second child when Brian Mobley filed for divorce in Sedgwick County District Court in March 2014. His petition called for joint legal custody, but Osipova fled to Russia a month later and took their children with her.
During the divorce, Mobley was awarded sole custody of the children by the district court. But Osipova got her own divorce through Russian courts.
The ex-husband flew to Europe to meet his ex-wife and children on the border of Poland and Russia, federal prosecutors previously said. But she refused to let him see the children and demanded money.
The daughters were able to talk with their father through Skype, but that ended when Mobley refused to pay for his ex-wife's internet service in Russia, according to court documents. Federal prosecutors said she demanded he give her money if he wanted to talk to his children.
Osipova was later charged with federal crimes and arrested by the FBI when she returned to the U.S. to try to change the child support arrangements.
Her defense attorneys said in federal court documents in August 2018 that they would cooperate with the U.S. government on returning her daughters to Kansas, expecting that to help her be released from jail before her trial. At the time, her attorneys expected the children to be back within the month.
After Osipova was found guilty in March, U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister said the children had not yet been returned.
In addition to international parental kidnapping, Osipova was also found guilty of two counts of extortionate interstate communications. A jury found she was not guilty of two other counts of extortion.
What American courts interpreted as extortion, Russian courts called alimony, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said in a briefing.
Sentencing for Osipova is scheduled for May 20. She faces up to three years in federal prison and a fine up to $250,000 on the kidnapping conviction. Each extortion charge carries a penalty of up to 20 years in prison and fines up to $250,000.
The Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the children are living with relatives in Kaliningrad. The embassy's statement refers to Osipova as a hostage who is being blackmailed into returning her children to the U.S. in exchange for her freedom. Her children are being deprived of their mother as their father provides no financial assistance, the Russians say.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo previously told McClatchy that he could not discuss the specific details of the case.
"We're always concerned when we have issues of that nature," Pompeo said.


Short-term user monetization can be as lucrative and sometimes more easily attainable than enchanting somebody for the long haul.
To monetize non-paying users in a structured way, try your hand with offerwalls. Instead of a simple ad that either pops up at the bottom of the screen, or that shows a video over the full screen, an offerwall can be more integrated into the design of the app itself.
Annecy will allow you to use automatic optimization techniques which ensure advertising revenue is maximized with improved fill rates and response times. The use of a good ad mediation platform will often see an almost immediate upturn in your app's eCPM rate.
Download volume will no longer be the determining factor when it comes to ranking. Installs can be manipulated (see this for a real-life example), so Google has implemented a shift towards quality weighing user engagement.
An offerwall is a monetization system that helps to generate revenues via any app. Many app developers tend to think of an offerwall as a store that is within their app, designed to encourage users to look at features or other apps that they might be interested in.
One of the chief reasons developers choose to stick with inducements for new users is that they get a great deal of 'bang for the buck', especially when the cost per install for non-incentivized apps can reach as much as $4, in many cases.
Giving your users total control of their in-app advertising experience can do much more than simply influence the behaviour of non-payers. By providing real value through offerwalls and similar rewarding ads, you can significantly alter the mindset of your users.
A lot has changed in the field of app monetization in the last decade. With first opening up the apple app store to external developers in 2008, the markt was flooded with amusing but often enough useless apps. The only thing that mattered was to get the most downloads.

Texas: Court Rules Home Offers No Escape From DUI Arrest
Texas appeals court rules that making it home is not enough to escape a drunk driving charge.
A Texas man thought he could avoid being hit with a driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) charge by reaching his home before the cops could arrive. It did not work, the state court of appeals ruled last Tuesday. Joe Cruz Banda, Jr. was behind the wheel of his Ford Taurus in May 2008 after having had too much to drink. He veered into oncoming traffic and nearly hit motorist William White.
White followed the Taurus while calling 911. The Taurus eventually parked in a residential driveway and entered a garage where several other people were gathered. Officer Miguel Daniel arrived on the scene within ten minutes, walked up to the open garage and asked who had been driving the Taurus. Banda came forward. As Banda spoke to Daniel on the driveway, White identified Banda to a second policeman, Officer Charles Bartlett, as the one who nearly had run him off the road. Banda failed field sobriety tests and was arrested for DUI.
The Harris County Criminal Court sentenced Banda to thirty days in the county jail, and Banda appealed his conviction on the grounds that the officers did not have reasonable suspicion or probable cause for their warrantless arrest. None of the officers had seen him driving, and Banda did not resemble the physical description relayed to the 911 operator. A three-judge appellate panel was not convinced by his arguments because Banda came out voluntarily to speak with the police.
"So long as the citizen remains free to disregard the officer's questions or go about his business, the encounter is consensual, and reasonable suspicion is unnecessary," Justice Leslie Brock Yates wrote for the court. "After reviewing these facts under the totality of the circumstances, we conclude the initial interaction between appellant and Officer Daniel constituted a consensual encounter. Following his conversation with White, Officer Daniel was free to approach appellant's open garage, inquire who had been driving the Taurus, and ask to speak with appellant after appellant acknowledged driving the vehicle."
Banda next argued that his arrest was unlawful because none of the officers had seen him driving. The court found the independent witness trustworthy.
"Reasonable suspicion, however, may be supplied by information acquired from another person and need not arise from an officer's personal observations," Yates wrote. "Officer Bartlett possessed sufficient facts to form a reasonable inference that appellant drove while intoxicated based on the background facts provided by White and appellant and appellant's performance during the field-sobriety tests."
The court concluded by pointing out that Texas law allows for the warrantless arrest of a suspect found in a "suspicious place."
"Any place may become suspicious when an individual at the location and the accompanying circumstances raise a reasonable belief that the individual committed a crime and exigent circumstances call for immediate action or detention by the police," Yates wrote. "A key factor used to justify the determination of a place as suspicious is whether the time frame between the crime and the apprehension of the suspect is short.... Because the totality of the circumstances show that the police possessed probable cause, appellant was found in a suspicious place, and exigent circumstances called for immediate action, we conclude appellant's warrantless arrest is justified."
The appellate court upheld the trial court's judgment. A copy of the ruling is available in a 170k PDF file at the source link below.

Fashion sometimes over-complicates what it's all about. And totally forget meanings for consumers. Most of the work that is done these days seem to be created for journalists, not for real people.
GAP went back to basics. Reinforcing its denim department (finally). And asked Dree Hemingway and HBO's "GIRLS"actor Adam Driver +several fashion influencers (MTV's Tanisha Long etc.) to create 250 pieces of content which will be revealed on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Vine and Tumblr over the next three months.
That's interesting because it's certainly not going to generate billions of views but it's going to shape what GAP is really about. A casual, nice, inclusive and somehow street brand, part of a lot of daily lives. Compared to a lot of brands which try to sell us some fake illusions, it aims to bring some optimism, individualism and democracy back on track.
GAP, Lived In: but where do you guys live?
