1. Fußball- und Sportverein Mainz 05 e. V., usually shortened to 1. FSV Mainz 05, Mainz 05 or simply Mainz, is a German association football club, founded in 1905 and based in Mainz, Rhineland-Palatinate. 1. FSV Mainz 05 have played in the Bundesliga, the top tier of the German football league system, for eight consecutive years, starting with the 2009–10 season. The club's main local rivals are Eintracht Frankfurt and 1. FC Kaiserslautern. In addition to the football division, 1. FSV Mainz 05 have handball and table tennis departments.
A failed attempt to start a football club in the city in 1903 was followed up two years later by the successful creation of 1. Mainzer Fussballclub Hassia 1905. After a number of years of play in the Süddeutschen Fußballverband (South German Football League), the club merged with FC Hermannia 07 – the former football side of Mainzer TV 1817 – to form 1. Mainzer Fussballverein Hassia 05, which dropped "Hassia" from its name in August 1912. Another merger after World War I, in 1919, with Sportverein 1908 Mainz, resulted in the formation of 1. Mainzer Fußball- und Sportverein 05. Die Nullfünfer were a solid club that earned several regional league championships in the period between the wars and qualified for the opening round of the national championships in 1921, after winning the Kreisliga Hessen.
Play during the Nazi era
In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the club earned decent results in the Bezirksliga Main-Hessen – Gruppe Hessen, including first-place finishes in 1932 and 1933. This merited the team a place in the Gauliga Südwest, 1 of 16 new first division leagues formed in the re-organization of German football under the Third Reich. Unfortunately, the club only managed a single season at that level before being relegated, due to the high intensity play that they were unable to keep up with. Karl Scherm scored in 23 out of 44 matches with Mainz during his last season. In 1938, Mainz was forced into a merger with Reichsbahn SV Mainz and played as Reichsbahn SV Mainz 05 until the end of World War II.
Long march to the Bundesliga
Historical chart of 1. FSV Mainz league performance after WWII
After World War II, the club again joined the upper ranks of league play in Germany's Oberliga Südwest, but were never better than a mid-table side. It played in the top flight until the founding of the new professional league, the Bundesliga, in 1963 and would go on to play as a second division side for most of the next four decades. They withdrew for a time – from the late 1970s into the late 1980s – to the Amateur Oberliga Südwest (III), as the result of a series of financial problems. Mainz earned honours as the German amateur champions in 1982.
The club returned to professional play with promotion to the 2. Bundesliga for a single season in 1988–89 with Bodo Hertlein as president, before finally returning for an extended run in 1990–91. Initially, they were perennial relegation candidates, struggling hard each season to avoid being sent down. However, under unorthodox trainer Wolfgang Frank, Mainz became one of the first clubs in German soccer to adopt a flat four zone defence, as opposed to the then-popular man-to-man defense using a libero.
Mainz failed in three attempts to make it to the top flight in 1996–97, 2001–02, and 2002–03, with close fourth-place finishes just out of the promotion zone. The last failed attempt stung as they were denied promotion in the 93rd minute of the last match of the season. One year earlier, Mainz became the best non-promoted team of all-time in the 2. Bundesliga with 64 points accumulated. However, the club's persistence paid dividends after promotion to the Bundesliga in 2003–04 under head coach Jürgen Klopp. The club played three seasons in the top flight but were relegated at the end of the 2006–07 season. Mainz then secured promotion back to the top flight just two years later, after the 2008–09 season.

Mainz also earned a spot in the 2005–06 UEFA Cup in their debut Bundesliga season as Germany's nominee in the Fair Play draw which acknowledges positive play, respect for one's opponent, respect for the referee, the behaviour of the crowd and of team officials, as well as cautions and dismissals. Due to the Bruchweg stadium's limited capacity, the home matches in UEFA Cup were played in Frankfurt's Commerzbank-Arena. After defeating Armenian club Mika and Icelandic club Keflavík in the qualifying rounds, Mainz lost to eventual champions Sevilla 2–0 on aggregate in the first round.
In the 2010–11 season, Mainz equalled the Bundesliga starting record by winning their first seven matches that season. They ended the season with their best finish to date in fifth place, good enough to secure them their second entry to the UEFA Europa League, where they were eliminated in the third qualifying round by Romanian club Gaz Metan Mediaș.

Stadium or Home
The club currently plays its home matches at Opel Arena, a new stadium opened in 2011 with a capacity of 34,034. The first event held at the new arena was the LIGA total! Cup 2011, which took place from 19 July through to 20 July 2011, with the other participants being Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Hamburger SV.
Die Nullfünfer previously played at the Bruchwegstadion, built in 1928, and modified several times over the years to hold a crowd of over 20,300 spectators. Averaging crowds of about 15,000 while in the 2. Bundesliga, the team's hard won recent success had them regularly filling their venue. The average home league attendance during the 2015–16 season was 30,324 spectators.

Indiana school to be named for trailblazing Black coach
WHITELAND — A new school in Johnson County will likely be named for a man who coached the first all-Black basketball team to win an Indiana championship.
Ray Crowe led state championship teams at Crispus Attucks High School in Indianapolis in 1955 and 1956.
The Clark-Pleasant school district in Whiteland is proposing to name a new elementary school for Crowe, who graduated from Whiteland High School in 1934, Superintendent Patrick Spray told the Daily Journal.
The school board will vote on the name later this month.
"The board had sense in the past not naming schools after individuals because where do you draw the line? But we're consciously doing more to recognize diversity, equity and inclusion," Spray said.
Crowe was a "trailblazer," he said.
"Part of the intent at the elementary school is to raise awareness of his contributions to not just basketball, but just with his influence on the young African-American men he worked with, his former players and the influence he had on them as young men," Spray said.
Crowe, who died in 2003, was also a state lawmaker and an official at the Indianapolis Parks and Recreation Department.

"I saw a Rohmer film once...": The truth behind the Night Moves meme
Jim Emerson | 2010-01-11
Arthur Penn's "Night Moves" (1975) is one of the great movies of the '70s. As a detective picture about a private eye with flawed vision -- in this case, a small-time independent dick and former football player named Harry Moseby (Gene Hackman), who'd like to think he's Sam Spade -- it would make a great double bill with "Chinatown," released the previous year. Yesterday, when the news came of French director Eric Rohmer's death, a lot of people who apparently hadn't even seen "Night Moves" (or, perhaps, a Rohmer movie) were freely quoting Moseby's famous wisecrack in pieces about Rohmer without providing any context for it:
"I saw a Rohmer film once. It was kind of like watching paint dry."
It wasn't long before it even became a Twitter meme: #nightmoves. (See examples below, after jump.)
What some (not all) of the quoters didn't seem to realize or remember is that Harry's remark, as scripted by Alan Sharp, is a brittle homophobic jab at a gay friend of his wife's. (Watch the clip above.) Ellen (Susan Clark) invites Harry to join her and Charles (Ben Archibek -- that's him at the end of the clip) for a movie: Eric Rohmer's classic "My Night at Maud's" (1970), about an engaged man (Jean-Louis Trintignant) who spends a long, memorable night in conversation with a divorcee (Françoise Fabian). Moseby is asserting his macho credentials, and ends the scene by teasing Charles about going bowling again sometime. "You seem to get some weird kind of satisfaction from this sort of thing, don't you?" Charles replies. Later that night, Harry drives by the theater as the movie is letting out and sees something indicating that his wife may be having an affair.


P ack your bags, close the boot and get away on holiday? When you start your holidays on a motorcycle, you usually have to consider a few things more when getting ready for your trip. The right preparation is therefore a must. So that nothing stands in the way of a smooth journey, Moto-tyres.co.uk has put together some tips for your next trip.
Whether a weekend trip or extended adventure, it all depends on the right equipment. Functional clothing, protectors and rain protection are a must on long trips. Wearing a suitable motorcycle helmet is a legal requirement almost everywhere. However, there are also very different rules and regulations for motorbike equipment and accessories depending on the destination, and you should familiarise yourself with these at all costs when preparing for your trip. In France, for example, motorcyclists have been required to wear gloves since 2016. If you get caught without them, you'll have to pay a fine. It is also mandatory to wear a safety vest. Otherwise, fines of up to 80 pounds may be imposed. Bikers travelling in Austria are required to carry a first aid kit. It is important that all equipment complies with the regulations in force in the destination country – in Italy, for example, only helmets that have been built according to the ECE 22 standard and marked accordingly may be worn.
Once the right equipment has been procured, the motorbike itself should be put through its paces before your trip. In addition to the engine, chain and brakes, the tyres in particular should be closely inspected. Do they still have enough tread for the trip? Some road surfaces wear down the tyres more than others, so if in doubt, fit new ones before the journey. In the comprehensive product range offered by Moto-tyres.co.uk , bikers will find all motorcycle tyre brands and tread patterns, meaning there will be something to suit every requirement and every style. Spare parts and accessories such as hoses or engine oil are also available in the online shop. All of which means there's nothing standing in the way of your next trip.

Mrs. Ehrlich Turns Troops Into Props
Letter published in the Baltimore Sun--7/2/2006
Most Republican elected officials are dutifully following Karl Rove's playbook by incessantly using patriotism as a means to stoke the conservative base and to bludgeon any Democratic politician who dares to disagree with GOP policies, especially on the tragic war in Iraq. The GOP also trumpets the "support the troops" mantra ad nauseum as a way of sidestepping criticism of their failed policies and to avoid substantive debate.
Whether this tactic will be successful in November is anyone's guess at this point. But Kendel Ehrlich, the wife of the Governor, sees political gain in this strategy even if the war is not the particular subject of discussion ("Critical first lady takes off the gloves," June 28).
Mrs. Ehrlich added a new page to this insidious playbook by invoking the "troops" card when discussing the Democratic effort to allow for early voting. According to the article, Mrs. Ehrlich feels "the Democratic efforts to 'mess with our franchise' makes a mockery of U.S. soldiers who are dying overseas to promote democracy."
The true mockery is using our troops, who were sent to fight and die in a war that has been proven to have no legitimate basis, as political pawns. Mrs. Ehrlich should apologize for her crass remarks in allowing our soldiers and Marines to be props in her political theater.
Does the Gay Vote Matter?
Not many candidates trolled for votes at Pride, but maybe there's a reason
Senior Political Analyst
This is a huge election year, both nationally and in Maryland. The direction of the country and the state is at stake as never before. Many tight elections are forecasted, so every vote counts. Every vote matters.
With huge throngs on hand at both the Pride parade-block party event and the festival at the park, a golden opportunity was afforded to local candidates to seek votes from the lgbt community and its allies. The crowds were surely large enough to troll for votes. A phone call to GLCCB executive director Craig Wiley to obtain crowd totals was not returned as of press time. The GLCCB is the producer of the Pride events.
On Saturday, I only saw U.S. Senate candidate Allan Lichtman meandering through the crowd, although Baltimore City Councilman Kieffer Mitchell was at the parade route along with Douglas Gansler, candidate for Maryland Attorney General. But the intense crowds of Saturday's block party plus the fact most of the people are strictly there to socialize and party wasn't conducive to normal campaigning and would be likely to be resistant to such activity.
The sultry Sunday at the park presented a better opportunity for candidates. A more laid back crowd is easier to deal with than a partying one. Hundreds of votes or contributions are to be had— just demonstrate your support for lgbt equality and not be Bush and you have a shot. But it was surprising that so few candidates for elected office took advantage of this major event.
Congressional Democratic candidates Paula C. Hollinger and Andy Barth actively worked the masses in pursuit of votes, if not name recognition. They are in a crowded field seeking the 3rd Congressional district seat currently held by Rep. Ben Cardin, who himself, is running for U.S. Senator along with Kweise Mfume, Michael Steele and the aforementioned Lichtman.
Neither Mfume nor Cardin made an appearance although volunteers from both camps handed out stickers to the festival-goers. And Steele wouldn't dare set foot on rainbow ground; his anti-gay positions would render any campaigning at the festival as seemingly a waste of time. Mfume has been a supporter of lgbt equality and strongly opposes any attempt to enshrine discrimination in either the state or Federal constitutions, as does Lichtman. Cardin has been less forthcoming but opposed the Federal Marriage Protection Act.
The gubernatorial race is hot and is likely to get hotter. But only Martin O'Malley bothered to come to the festival and made brief remarks, which were amply ignored or not heard by the largely politically apathetic crowd. Neither Doug Duncan nor Governor Ehrlich was there, although no one would have expected the latter's appearance. This despite the startling firing by Ehrlich of an appointee, Robert Smith, from the Metro Transit Board for characterizing homosexuality as deviant behavior.
According to a statement released by Governor Ehlrich, "Robert Smith's comments were highly inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable. They are in direct conflict to my administration's commitment to inclusion, tolerance and opportunity." The Governor's memory is short or has an unusual definition of "inclusion;" he fully supports an amendment to the state's constitution that would ban same-sex couples from marrying. And "tolerance" is not where we want to be. We are seeking full equality.
Ehrlich's firing of Smith may have appealed to some in the lgbt community and to moderates, while pissing off such conservative bigoted organizations as the American Family Association, which condemned the governor.
To my knowledge, besides O'Malley and perhaps Hollinger, no major candidate bothered to press flesh with the gay voters attending the Pride events. It may not have been a snub though. It was Father's Day, and other events could have been scheduled as well. Candidates and their staffs must prioritize and allocate their available time.
Given the degree of political apathy that characterizes our community, I believe the other candidates made a calculation that attending the event and working the crowd would not be productive. O'Malley needed to be there to at least try to mend fences with the community for his "marriage is between only a man and a woman" comment. The others probably saw little value to show up in person.
It wasn't that long ago when fiery, passionate political speeches and activism dominated the Pride speakers'stage at various cities. Alas, it's all about entertainment now, which caters to this community. Perhaps politicians are beginning to take notice of that.
Pride of Baltimore: This is Our Time
Another year has gone by where our community has been under attack by the religious right and by those politicians who are owned by these bigots. Another year of enduring the diatribes denouncing lgbt folks as second-class citizens worthy of discrimination has passed. President Bush and his GOP cohorts in Congress are again pushing a divisive Constitutional amendment to discriminate against gay and lesbian couples.
Massachusetts remains the only state in the U.S. where same-sex marriage is legal. Openly gay and lesbian members of the armed forces still cannot serve their country although convicted criminals can. And members of the same sex cannot hold hands in public lest they get harassed, beat up or more. We continue to be verbally and physically bludgeoned for being who we are.
Many of us are angered; many simply do not care. But our spirits will not be shaken. For it is June—Pride month—and now it's our time to stand up and be heard as one: gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, black, white, Latino, Asian, old, young, single, coupled, rich, poor, activist, apathetic, you name it. This is our time, and we will celebrate.
And we will do so right here in Baltimore.
A large majority of the people who will be watching and participating in the parade up Charles Street, jamming Eager Street and Charles for the traditional block party (June 17), and/or attending the festival at Druid Park (June 18) were born after 1969 when the Stonewall riots took place.
That historic movement-altering weekend in late June to which most gays all over the world credit as the start of the modern gay rights movement began as another intrusive police raid of the Stonewall Inn—a gay bar in New York's Greenwich Village. The forceful resistance by the bar's patrons, consisting largely of drag queens, sparked a small riot outside the establishment over the weekend and sent the message that "enough was enough."
The uprising received little notice initially, but then word of the incident spread rapidly in New York and other gay conclaves throughout the U.S. Starting in 1970 and continuing today, the celebration of this uprising had sprung up in hundreds of cities and towns globally. Even an attempt to march, albeit thwarted by police and right wing opposition, was launched in Moscow recently.
But these younger people today who were not around for this epic event or are shamefully unaware of it, probably have not experienced the trauma of a police raid and its arrests or at least the fear of such an incident.
Nonetheless, despite not knowing the basis of Pride celebrations or the rationale, these folks will still show up at the block party and parade and bring their dogs, partners, friends, or just themselves to the festival in the park. Rainbows, balloons and confetti will abound, as will food, beverages, books, jewelry, literature from myriad lgbt and supportive organizations, music and camaraderie. They will party and run into old friends and make new ones, perhaps oblivious to the symbolic significance of the occasion.
And that is just fine, because this is our time.
Regardless of our ages, gender, race, interests, agendas, or even fetishes, this community can rightly celebrate pride in ourselves. We are who we are, and we shall continue to live our lives the way they were meant to be and not pretend to be somebody else. We should be proud of our own individual accomplishments and what our community has achieved over the years. We will be ourselves this glorious weekend, undeterred by what others may think.
Let's come out and show our pride. Let's understand the meaning of the events. And let's enjoy ourselves. Happy Pride, Baltimore! This is our time.

Q: LinkButton not doing postback on second click I want the clients to be able to download a PDF file. So I've put on a LinkButton with the code:
Markup:
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkPrintHere" runat="server" OnClick="lnkPrintHere_Click" Text="Click here" />

Code behind:
protected void lnkPrintHere_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
    Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);
    Response.TransmitFile("/_layouts/Files/" + fileName);
    Response.End();
}

Everything works fine the first time the link is clicked. Subsequent clicks don't raise the OnClick event. Has anyone any idea why this might be happening?
PS: Should you need more info, please feel free to ask.

A: This happens if you use Response.End()
This is mentioned here :
Post Back does not work after writing files to response in ASP.NET
One workaround is to use a query string approach. When you click linkbutton redirect to same page with query string. And in page load, if you detect query string, emit the PDF and return.

A: You can always try alternatives in the response method itself, I used your code with Response.Close and its working fine. But I know, this is not the right option , but using query string for download is not a right option too.

Church and state: Voter, poll worker in a war of words, alleged scuffle over Bible on Election Day
The argument over Bibles being displayed at polling places in Philly has escalated.

Scenes like this one have been the norm on Election Day. But when one Philly voter spoke out on being offended by the gesture, things allegedly turned hostile. | Image: Kerith Gabriel
The argument over Bibles being displayed at polling places in Philly has escalated, but for one Fishtown-Kensington voter, the argument allegedly turned violent.
"I have asked these poll workers nicely why the Bible is displayed at the polling place. I have tried to explain to them that they cannot leave it out after they are sworn in because it is intimidating to non-Christian voters," says a Philly resident and self-described "middle-aged white woman" who goes by Veronica.
In June she shared a video with PW that she had taken at her Olde Kensington polling place upon a confrontation with poll workers about leaving a Bible out on the table during elections. Poll workers are given the option of swearing-in on a Bible before beginning work for the day, but then instructed to return the book to its box, not display it.
"This is the third time I have asked them for the last three elections," she says, "I have called and complained to the hotlines about election problems."
It appears the poll workers have grown frustrated with the repeated conversations as well. When Veronica went to vote on Nov. 5 at Ward 18, Division 15 and asked again about the Bibles, she was met with resistance. In a video she shared with PW, a poll worker can be seen approaching her, getting increasingly irate and demanding to not be filmed.Play Video
Veronica alleged that one poll worker "assaulted me, hit me and grabbed at my phone." While the video cuts do not show a confrontation between Veronica and the poll worker, the worker is heard telling Veronica that she's going to "shove that phone up her ass."
"I ran out like I was escaping a mob," Veronica noted.
She says she's not injured and does not want to involve the police out of fear of "retaliation from Christian groups or these poll workers," adding, "It's bad enough that the poll workers have my name and address and I don't have theirs."
As Philly Weekly reported before, officials for the Board of Elections say, if someone makes a report to the office about the Bible being displayed at a poll, they will call or send someone out to tell the poll worker to put it away, but there's nothing that can legally be done should they refuse.
Furthermore, Samantha Pearson, chief of staff for state Rep. Mary Isaacson, confirmed to a PW reporter who voted at a different polling place in that while the Bible does have its place at the polls, it's best practice to remove the Bible from the table.
"It's not illegal, but some could argue it's immorality," Pearson said. "It's just good practice to put it back in the box after, but unfortunately there's not really a rule that says [poll workers] have to, and that's where voters understandably can get frustrated."
Philadelphia Weekly editor Kerith Gabriel contributed to this story.

Shock and awe: the top 10 indebted companies in India
ವಾರ್ತಾ ಭಾರತಿ Jan 03, 2016, 2:36 PM IST
NEERAJ THAKUR@neerajthakur2 , catchnews.com
Here's a financial tip no one gives you. If you owe money to the banks, make sure the amount is huge. Then you won't need to worry about paying it back on time. Or, indeed, in some cases, paying it back at all.
This is not a joke. Several top business houses in India owe banks astronomical amounts and have defaulted in repayment. But instead of facing pressure to pay back these loans, companies are routinely given sweet deals: either their loans are 'restructured' in a way that allows a moratorium on interest payments, or their repayment schedule is extended generously.
In December 2015, the Supreme Court ruled that under RTI, and in the interest of transparency, banks must reveal the names of companies who default. Until now, banks have refused to share this information easily.
In absolute terms, the gross non-performing assets - loans not repaid by borrowers - owed just to state-owned banks was reported at Rs 3.04 lakh crore. That's four times the entire budget for education in India. A large part of these loans will never be repaid by the companies.
Compare this with the farm loan waiver of Rs 70,000 crore given by the government in 2009 that faced huge criticism from free market economists who start beating their chests at the mention of subsidy to the poor in the country.
The Reserve Bank of India so far has not released the details of individual borrowers who have defaulted on repayment of their loans.
In the absence of this, here is a list of the 10 most indebted companies of India, reported by Credit Suisse in its October 2015 report. The debt shown on their balance sheets was till March 2015.
One expects that debt on these 10 companies comprise a major chunk of the non-performing assets of the banks. Though it is unclear how much is the exact amount of non-performing assets against each company, however, just their outstandings make for staggering reading.
01 The Reliance Group
The Anil Ambani-led Reliance Group is in the business of power, insurance, wealth management, telecommunication infrastructure and entertainment. In March 2015, the company had a debt of Rs 1.25 lakh crore on its balance sheet.
The amount is equivalent to the special package announced for Bihar by Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of state elections in August this year.
02 The Vedanta Group
Anil Agarwal's company is the second-most indebted company. According to Credit Suisse, the company, which is into metals and mining, had a debt of Rs 1.03 lakh crore.
This is equivalent to the amount raised by the Government of India in March 2015 through its biggest-ever auction of telecom spectrum.
03 Essar Group
Managed by the Ruia Brothers (Shashi Ruia and Ravi Ruia) the company, with operations in 25 countries, owes Rs 1.01 lakh crore.
That's what the Centre plans to spend on building smart cities until 2020.
04 Adani Group
Gautam Adani, the chairman of the Adani Group of companies is known for his proximity with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. His business house owes Rs 96,031 crore to the banking system. The amount is a little less than the Budget for building the bullet train network between Mumbai and Ahmadabad proposed by the government.
Earlier this year, the State Bank of India reportedly approved a loan of around $1 billion (Rs 6,600 crore ) for the company's coal mine in Australia. However, after much hue and cry in the media due to the highly stressed balance sheet of the public sector bank, the approval was withdrawn.

05 Jaypee Group
Manoj Gaur-run Jaypee Group has a debt of Rs 75,163 crore on its balance sheet. Jaypee Group had a golden time during the Mayawati rule in Uttar Pradesh between 2007 and 2012.
The debt is eight times the allocation for mid-day meals in 2015 that feeds 12 crore school going children in the country.
06 JSW Group
Sajjan Jindal is the chairman of JSW group and he was recently in headlines for reportedly organising the meeting between Pakistan Prime minister Nawaaz Sharif and Narendra Modi.
Big connections allow you big credit lines. As per the Credit Suisse report, the group has a debt of Rs 58,171 crore. The amount is equivalent to the cost of 26 Rafale fighter aircrafts that India plans to buy from France.
07 GMR Group
Named after its promoter GM Rao, the group is known for building Delhi's T3 International Airport terminal.
The group has a debt of Rs 47,976 crore on its balance sheet. The amount can be used to build to coal-based power plants with a generation capacity of 4,000 MW each - enough to provide electricity to the state of Haryana during peak summers.
08 Lanco Group
Headed By L Madhusudan Rao, the company runs solar and thermal power plants. It has a debt of Rs 47,102 crore.
09 Videocon Group
Venugopal Dhoot's company, the group once famous for making televisions, owes Rs 45,405 crore to banks. This amount can be used to 93 missions to Mars by India.
10 GVK Group
Founded by GVK Reddy, the group has interests in energy, infrastructure and hospitality sectors. The company has a debt of Rs 33,933 crore. The amount is just a little less than government's allocation under the MNREGA scheme (National Rural Employment Guarantee Act) of Rs 34,000 crore in 2015.

Middlesbrough extended their lead at the top of the Championship with victory following an error from Brentford goalkeeper David Button.
The winner came when his punch looped up and towards the line, although it looked like Boro defender Daniel Ayala might have got the final touch.
It was harsh on Brentford, who saw Alan Judge and Maxime Colin denied by fine Dimi Konstantopoulos goalkeeping.
Button made some fine saves of his own but his error proved costly.
Boro climb six points clear of second-placed Derby with a game in hand.
The Teessiders began the night four points clear of the Rams and arrived in west London with an unbeaten league record against their opponents stretching back to 1938.
However their position was no concern to the home side who attacked Boro with vigour and caused problems through top scorer Judge's creativity throughout.
Konstantopoulos foiled Lasse Vibe when he capitalised on an Ayala error, and Button was smart to stop David Nugent from a similar position before the break.
Brentford looked to be in the ascendancy after half-time, with Boro again indebted to Konstantopoulos' efforts, but a dangerous corner in a swirling wind proved their undoing as Button's attempted clearance sailed up and towards the goal, and Ayala wheeled away in celebration having claimed to poke in the crucial goal.
Bees boss Dean Smith made all his changes in a bid to overturn the deficit but Boro stood firm to pick up the points and edge further clear of their promotion rivals.
"I'm disappointed with the result but as I've said before we can only control performances and the performance was very good.
"If we continue to look after our performances the results will follow. The performance tonight would have been enough to beat many sides in this division.
"Boro are a good team with good players and we more than matched and at times looked marginally better than them."
"We have been really lucky because to be fair in the first half Brentford had three chances and we have made two or three mistakes.
"Sometimes you pay for those mistakes, but when you are top of table the luck can stay with you.
"They are confident on the pitch and that confidence means you can make mistakes, but there are another 10 players who know you and are always there just in case."

Q: which is better setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH) or GraphicsDevice device? I am planning on making a full screen application in Java. I have come across 2 sets of ways to make the application full screen.
1. frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH)
2. GraphicsDevice device = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getScreenDevices()[0];
    device.setFullScreenWindow(frame);

Both of these do the same that is make the frame full screen. What I would like to know which of these are better?
If I was to use this application on different screen resolution would they behave the same .Example projectors etc

A: Approach 2. is preferred.  The best thing to do is check if fullscreen mode is available:
if (device.isFullScreenSupported()) {
    device.setFullScreenWindow(frame);
} else {
    frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
}

Maximizing a frame is the equivalent of double-clicking the title bar.  It will not fill the parts of the screen used by the desktop's taskbar or other reserved areas, and its decorations (title bar, border, close/minimize/maximize buttons) will still be visible, which probably is not what you want.

Q: How to enforce maxlength on textarea in Opera but allow modification I want to limit the number of characters in a textarea to 255 but still allow keys like Backspace, Delete, arrow keys, Home, End, PgUp, etc. I also want to allow Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+A shortcuts inside a textarea. The number of characters should never be more than 255 even when text was pasted by Ctrl+C or right click > paste. With browsers other than Opera, I can simply use the maxlength property, but it is unfortunately not supported in Opera.
I looked at some of the solutions of SO, but none of them seems to complelety implement what I want. And those solutions are somewhat ugly because some of them hard code many keyCodes. (Maybe that is the only approach.)
How should I approach this to solve this problem?

A: Concerning Opera, you can just handle the input event:
$('textarea').on('input', function() {
    if (this.value.length > 255) this.value = this.value.substring(0, 255);
});

Fiddle
Note: No IE<=8 support. This can technically be shimmed with MS's propertychange event, but that's rather buggy when pasting on IE8 textarea, figures.

Just made this slightly crude snippet to automatically shim textareas' maxLength:
$(function() {
    var helper = document.createElement('textarea');
    //if (!('maxLength' in helper)) {
        var supportsInput = 'oninput' in helper,
            ev = supportsInput ? 'input' : 'propertychange paste keyup',
            handler = function() {
                var maxlength = +$(this).attr('maxlength');
                if (this.value.length > maxlength) {
                    this.value = this.value.substring(0, maxlength);
                }
            };

        $('textarea[maxlength]').on(ev, supportsInput ? handler : function() {
            var that = this;
            setTimeout(function() {
                handler.call(that);
            }, 0);
        });
    //}

});

Demo
Tested in Opera 12.10 and IE8.
This will automatically patch textareas that have a maxlength attribute on DOM ready. You may obviously delegate the event (in case there are dynamically generated textareas) by attaching it to an ancestor and using textarea[maxlength] as a descendant selector, e.g.:
$(document).on(ev, 'textarea[maxlength]', ...)

And finally, the feature detection is commented out because Opera does have a maxLength property on textareas, it parses the value the html to the DOM maxLength property as well as having the default value (-1) for textareas without maxLength, it is just that it apparently has no effect in Opera.
I can't find a way to properly feature detect this Opera bug so the feature detection part is commented out, that is, the code above attaches listeners to textareas independently of whether the browser supports maxLength. Feel free to edit the answer in case you manage to feature detect Opera's bug. Though this seems to be a very localized bug that shall be fixed soon enough.

Q: When is Generic.xaml applied? My Generic.xaml theme is correctly applied, however, I'm interested in the details when the styles within it are applied. When a new element is created and added to the visual tree, for sure somewhere in between the style is applied, but is this style ever reapplied?
I've got a scenario where an element is unloaded (the window within which it is contained is closed), and later added again to another visual tree (the window is recreated). The problem is the style does not seem to be reapplied, which I was hoping to happen so the bindings within the template and such are reevaluated.
So the concrete question:

*

*When are styles within Generic.xaml applied, and are they ever reapplied/can they be reapplied?

Ninth Circuit Revives Conviction, Rejects Conflict of Interest Claim
Fact That Lawyer Was Being Prosecuted in Unrelated Case Did Not Hamper Defense, Court Rules En Banc
By KENNETH OFGANG, Staff Writer/Appellate Courts
An en banc panel of the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday that a convicted burglar is not entitled to a new trial based on his lawyer's alleged conflict of interest.
In a 9-2 decision, the judges said that Anthony Campbell was not entitled to a new trial based on the fact that his lawyer was—apparently without his knowledge— being prosecuted by the Santa Clara District Attorney's Office at the same time he was. McCann, who still practices in San Jose, was facing charges of attempting to bring methamphetamine through the metal detector at one of the county's criminal justice facilities.
A three-judge panel ruled in September 2002 that Campbell, sentenced to an aggregate 14 years in prison for 18 burglaries, was denied his constitutional right to conflict-free counsel, and was denied due process when he was excluded from a chambers conference at which the conflict was discussed.
The panel, comprised of Judges Harry Pregerson and Michael Daly Hawkins and Senior Judge Warren J. Ferguson, held that the violations constituted a structural defect in the proceedings, rendering harmless-error analysis unnecessary.
In its first decision in the case, filed in September 2001, the three-judge panel, ruled that a conflict existed and that Campbell was entitled to a new trial.
"As a criminal defense attorney," the panel said, "McCann had a duty to maintain an adversarial relationship with the prosecution to vigorously represent her client." But as a defendant, she had an interest in staying on good terms with the prosecution.
The trial judge, the panel said, had a duty to "inquire further" and to advise Campbell of the conflict once the jurist became aware of it. The panel noted that the only discussion of the conflict between the judge and counsel came at the chambers conference.
The government sought reconsideration, and the court put the case on hold pending the outcome of Mickens v. Taylor, 535 U. S. 162 (2002).
No Automatic Reversal
Mickens involved an attorney whose client — charged with murder — did not know that the lawyer was representing the victim on assault and weapons charges at the time of the killing. The Supreme Court ruled that there was no rule of automatic reversal, contrary to the holding of the Ninth Circuit in Campbell's case, and upheld the conviction on the ground the defendant did not show that the attorney's performance was actually affected by the conflict.
On reconsideration, however, the Campbell panel threw out the conviction again, distinguishing Mickens on the basis of Campbell's exclusion from the chambers conference.
That was structural error, Pregerson wrote, "because Campbell would have been able to ëinfluence the process' in a significant way had he been present at the hearing."
But Judge Richard Clifton, writing Friday for the en banc court, said the decision of the Sixth District Court of Appeal, which affirmed the convictions and denied habeas corpus relief, was entitled to deference under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996.
"The approach adopted by the court of appeal"—which assumed that a conflict existed, but found that it did not hamper McCann's defense—"...was not contrary to clearly established federal law," the judge wrote, nor was it an unreasonable application of Supreme Court precedent to the facts of the case.
No Structural Error
The high court, Clifton explained, has held that a defendant's involuntary absence from a portion of the proceedings is a due process violation only if the defendant's presence "would contribute to the fairness of the procedure." Nor, he added, has the court ever held that the exclusion of a defendant, even at a critical stage of the proceedings, is structural error.
Chief Judge Mary M. Schroeder and Judges Pamela Ann Rymer, Andrew J. Kleinfeld, Barry G. Silverman, Susan P. Graber, Kim M. Wardlaw, Ronald M. Gould and Jay S. Bybee concurred in Clifton's opinion.
Ferguson, the only member of the three-judge panel to be drawn for the en banc rehearing, dissented, joined by Judge Stephen Reinhardt.
"This case is astonishing," Ferguson declared. "The prosecutor deliberately prevented the trial judge from determining defense counsel's true criminal history and current legal problems" and thus prevented Campbell from learning of the conflict and making an informed decision about whether to seek new counsel.
In a footnote to the majority opinion, Clifton said the record did not support Ferguson's insinuation of prosecutorial misconduct. There was no showing that information was deliberately withheld from the judge or that the prosecutor and defense counsel colluded to keep information away from Campbell.
The case is Campbell v. Rice, 99-17311.

Q: How to concatenate a string with SpEL in SpringXD Stream Definition I'm trying to create a stream definition that uses two payload fields joined together to create a concatenated string.
stream create --name blah --definition "http | gemfire-json-server --keyExpression=payload.getField('deviceId') + payload.getField('timestamp')" --deploy`

The concatenation piece in the keyExpression is incorrect, what should it be to get it to work inline?

A: The simplest answer to you is based on the fact that String has concat() method. So, you code may look like:
--keyExpression=payload.getField('deviceId').concat(payload.getField('timestamp'))

From other side, here you are a quote from XD Reference Manual:

It is only necessary to quote parameter values if they contain spaces or the | character. Here the transform processor module is being passed a SpEL expression that will be applied to any data it encounters:

      transform --expression='new StringBuilder(payload).reverse()'

And find this chapter, please, for more information about quotes.

'Just two days ago we were talking.' Families grieve victims of Half Moon Bay massacre
HALF MOON BAY — Renato Juarez Perez got the gut-wrenching call around 4 p.m. on Monday — one of his cousins was killed, and another badly injured, in the mass shooting that claimed seven lives in this coastal farming community.
The brothers, Jose and Pedro Romero Perez, are among the victims of Monday's violence at two farms in Half Moon Bay. Jose, in his late 30s, was killed at Mountain Mushroom Farm, while Pedro, in his 20s, was badly injured there and transported to a local hospital, Juarez Perez said.
"Just two days ago, we were talking," Juarez Perez said. Now, he, along with family and friends in the U.S. and Mexico, are left wondering how — and why — the brothers were killed.
Officials say the suspected shooter, 66-year-old Half Moon Bay resident Chunli Zhao, worked at Mountain Mushroom Farm and may have been involved in a workplace dispute.
Alicia Ortega also is searching for answers. Just a few miles down the coast from where the brothers were shot, three more people were gunned down at Concord Farms, including her boyfriend and nextdoor neighbor, Martin Martinez, who helped cultivate and pick mushrooms.

Ortega said she was cooking in her Moss Beach home when she received the call from a friend that Martinez had been killed.
"I'm on my way there," Ortega told her friend.
"Don't go," the friend said. "The shooter is still on the loose."
Ortega raced there anyway, until she was stopped by sheriff's deputies.
Ortega's husband died three years ago, she said, and now she has lost Martinez, who was 50 and had no children. He had worked for Concord Farms for 27 years and had worked with Zhao about 7 years ago, she said. She doesn't remember Martinez ever mentioning him.
"What can I tell you? Only great things about him," she said. "He was a human being with a big heart. He cares about everyone."
When her husband was sick, Martinez would walk with Ortega and her husband through their mobile home park for exercise. When she needed help moving him, Martinez would come over to lift him. And when her husband was dying, after Martinez finished his shift at the farm, "instead of coming home to rest, he would go to the hospital to see my husband and stay there until 10 o'clock," she said. "Until my husband told him to go home, you have to go to work tomorrow."
Then Martinez would be up and at work by 6:30 the next morning. After her husband died, she and Martinez became closer. The week before he died, she cooked his favorite meals – including chile rellenos and tacos, and every day she would leave a lunch bag on the roof of his car to find in the morning.
The Romero Perez brothers had not been in Half Moon Bay long.
Renato Juarez Perez said his cousins came to the coastal community a short time ago to be close to family and contribute to the support system that keeps many farmworker families above water financially and socially.
He described Jose as a very nice, very quiet and sociable guy, a family man, who provided for four children and a wife while living at the mushroom farm.. Juarez Perez remembers fondly all of the family dinners, reunions, parties and simple errand-running they would do together. Pedro, he said, was the same — a quiet, reserved, hard-working man who never made a fuss.

Both cousins were thinking about leaving California after a couple of thin paychecks and little work, said Maria Melgar, who runs the Hilltop Grocery store on Highway 92 — about half a mile from Mountain Mushroom Farm — that the family frequented.
"I'm a store owner, so I see them all the time," Maria Melgar said, tears running down her face. "I was taking a rest day yesterday but when I got the call, I was so sad I started crying. It's so sad."
The identities of the five men and two women who were killed, and the one man who was injured — had not been officially released as of Tuesday evening. It is not yet clear if Zhao targeted specific victims, officials said.

Fabiola Procopio, Melgar's daughter, said she occasionally drove customers home to the mushroom farm and found their living conditions spartan. There were a number of trailers, she said, but also tent-like structures where workers lived.
"Sometimes, they didn't even have like a real roof, they would just make one," she said. "I mean, they needed to find money and a place to live so I didn't really question it."
Juarez Perez said his cousins were thinking of moving on from Half Moon Bay.

Another round of winter weather on the way


After a happily uneventful bus trip, I´ve arrived in Antigua.
Antigua, about an hour out of Guatemala City, is the Guatemalan equivalent of Bangkok´s Khao San Road–which is to say, it's paved in tourists, loud dance music, and people selling completely random stuff at overinflated prices. I think the gringos must outnumber the local people.
And what, you might ask, is a traveling tigress doing in a place like this?
Looking for textiles, of course!
…here I am in Antigua.
I'm being grievously overcharged for a complete rathole tonight, the sort of place where the only question is whether you use your spare lock to supplement their padlock on the rusty hasp at the door, or use it to chain your packs to the bed. (I put it on the door: anyone motivated enough to break into your room will cut open your packs, and I want to protect my stuff from the hotel staff.) About the bed there's not much question: you pull out the handy silk sleep-sheet you've been carting around for just such an occasion, because your body and those sheets are not going to meet.
However, it does fulfill my basic needs, i.e. it has a bed, a private bath, nominally hot (more like lukewarm) water, AND is the closest hotel to the bus station, from which I plan to depart for Guatemala City tomorrow. I can live with anything for one night, and I was not going to drag that second bag one meter further.
Second bag, you ask? Well, yes. I've been buying up piles of textiles, and was going to do the natural thing and mail them home, but then I remembered how subject to theft, corruption, etc. Guatemala generally is, and asked about the post office. Sure enough, the Guatemalan postal service is just as unreliable as most other services. Since I'm carting around about $400 worth of textiles (which is a small fortune here), I´m NOT going to risk them in the mail. Instead, I'll put them in luggage storage with the airport hotel when I leave for Belize.
Anyway, this hotel is one of the worst I've encountered in my travels–only the concrete cinderblock oven in Vietnam and the overflowing toilet in Laos were worse–but what the hell, even if the shower is made of some kind of crumbling concrete and the toilet and sink have seen many better days, and I keep looking around for roaches, I can live with it for one night, and I won't have to drag my bags over half the city. I've never understood why people make such a fuss over nice hotels anyway–you wind up paying enormous sums for a room you're only going to spend two waking hours in, so who cares?
That being said, this place is still a rathole.
I have mixed feelings about having come to Antigua. I wish I'd had a few more days in Xela, to talk to Carlos (my guide) and have him show me around, and introduce me to, the people he knows. I feel that the best part of traveling is the people you meet, and to really meet a group of people takes time–to find your contacts, to have them introduce you around, and really get to know them as people, instead of the usual tourist show. I wish I weren't on a schedule…if I'd been traveling solo, truly solo, with no timeframe, I'd have stayed in Xela at least another few days, maybe a week, before leaving for Antigua. Traveling on a timeframe is the absolute pits.
Well, anyway, I'm here in Antigua, and I've already scored one splendid piece–it's a huipil (woman's blouse) covered with colorful parrots and flowers in what looks like needlepoint, but is actually extremely detailed brocade weaving. And it's double-faced–the pattern is the same on both front and back, which takes even more skill. They do these incredibly complex weavings on the backstrap loom, because it's portable–they can't cart around a floor loom, but a backstrap loom can go anywhere, and they can work on it wherever they are. I saw a little girl working on one of those huipils, while minding the shop. Tomorrow I'll go back and try to get a photo of her, and try to buy the loom she's working on along with the part-finished piece–if I can convince her to part with it, it will be priceless for demonstrations and examples.
I'm pleased with how good my Spanish is, now–I've been getting around quite well recently, and bargaining in Spanish is coming easily and well. This afternoon I asked a couple people where to find an ATM, and had no trouble understanding their response. It's such a relief to be able to move about so easily, and such a contrast with the gringos I see on the streets. I can talk to shopkeepers, ask them where something came from, even say, "Hey, that comes from Xela, doesn't it?", and even have short conversations about the pieces on display. It's much better than where I was even a few days earlier. I love it.
Damn. I really wish I had more time here. I never should have gotten that ticket to Belize.
Well, I did buy it, and off I'll go, and I'll certainly have a great time there. But it won't be here.
Three weeks isn't long enough. Six months isn't long enough. I want to see EVERYTHING! And there are so many things I'll never get to see, try, do. Life is so damn short.

Blair falls to Quince Orchard in semifinals
By Sara Pierce | Nov. 6, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Nov. 3, QUINCE ORCHARD— After conquering Damascus and Watkins Mill in the first two rounds of playoffs and then making history as the first girls soccer team at Blair to reach the regional semifinals, the Blazers could not manage to outplay Quince Orchard in the third round. Their 1-0 loss to the Cougars marked the end of a tremendous season for Blair that was characterized by close games, frustrating losses and vengeful victories.
Girls varsity soccer makes history
Nov. 1, WATKINS MILL— The Blazers made history tonight in their victory over the Watkins Mill Wolverines (10-5-1) as the first varsity girls soccer team to win two rounds of playoffs and make it to semifinals since Blair was established in 1935. Although the final score was tight at 1-0, the Blazers played with heart and intensity through the final seconds, and their record now stands at 7-6-1.
Blair claims victory over Einstein
By Sara Pierce | Oct. 22, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Oct. 21, BLAZER STADIUM— For senior night, dozens of enthusiastic fans came to cheer on the Blazers during their 3-0 victory over the Einstein Titans. Across the field, an enormous sign saying "we love our seniors" hung from the bleachers, and several players baked soccer-themed cakes and made posters to express their appreciation. The festive atmosphere carried over to the game, as the Blazers' played with intensity and positive attitudes.
Blair conquers Northwest
Oct. 11, BLAZER STADIUM— For the first time this season the girls' varsity soccer team took control of a close game, securing a 2-1 win over the Northwest Jaguars. Previously, Blair's victories had consisted of complete shutouts over clearly less talented teams, or close losses against evenly-matched teams. Tonight, however, the Blazers showed a determination to end their losing streak and prove that they can win games against challenging opponents.
Watkins Mill sneaks by Blazers
By Sara Pierce | Oct. 6, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Oct. 5, BLAZER STADIUM— Luck was not on Blair's side tonight in their 0-1 loss to the Watkins Mill Wolverines, a game which highlighted the difference between effort and results. Although Blair generally dominated the play of the game and kept the ball in their possession the majority of the time, the Blazers could not manage to net a goal, not only during regulation, but also during the almost 20 minutes of extended time afterwards. After 80 minutes of regulation there was a 0-0 score, forcing two frustrating overtimes, which ended abruptly with a devastating goal by the Wolverines. Blair's record now stands at a 2-4-1.
Blair blows out the Blue Devils
By Sara Pierce | Sept. 30, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Sept. 28, BLAZER STADIUM— The girls' varsity soccer team established their superiority over Springbrook by demonstrating an intense offensive drive in tonight's 5-0 blowout. Despite having to recover from yesterday's frustrating tie to Blake, Blair came out strong against a weaker opponent and dominated. Contributions from star senior Sophie Esparza as well rising forward Annie Worden helped Blair to take control of the game from almost the very start.
Quince Orchard triumphs over Blair
Sept. 22, BLAZER STADIUM— The Blazers suffered a tough 1-2 loss tonight to the Quince Orchard Cougars, bringing their record to 1-3. Although Blair started out strong in the first half and scored the opening goal, the Cougars came out on top in the second and took home the win. Poor offensive continuity and several defensive lapses in the second half were responsible for Blair's loss.
The Bulldogs give Blair a nasty bite
Sept. 13, BLAZER STADIUM— Churchill's dominating ball control and advantageous speed proved invaluable in the Bulldog's 1-0 victory over the Blair varsity girls' soccer team tonight. Despite the Blazers' consistent, solid defense and their fierce offensive drive during the final minutes of the game, Churchill maintained their composure, their lead and a shutout throughout the game.
Playing through the pain for athletic gain
By Sara Pierce | May 2, 2005, midnight | In Print »
As the final minutes of the fourth quarter slip away, senior Andrew Beach sprints down the field, cradling the lacrosse ball in his stick and searching for an opportunity to score against Sherwood on May 1 of last year. Without warning, an opponent decks him from the side, sending Beach into a flip. His flight ends abruptly when his skull smashes against the ground. He lies motionless on his back.
Fatherless students try to fill the void

"Nice to meet you, Angela. I am your father," the man says to his eight-year-old daughter. Angela looks at him uneasily—she has no memory of the unfamiliar man in her living room. And now, the father she never knew is standing right in front of her.

These key justifications forgoing to war turned out to be false. We must now question thecompetence and integrity of a president who continues to pursuemisguided foreign and domestic policies.

Spooner Oldham - Potluck LP NEW 1st time Reissue
Spooner Oldham - Potluck LP
New. Sealed.
1st time Reissue
Legendary ivory-tickler Spooner Oldham is synonymous with the Muscle Shoals sound. The southern soul pioneer famously backed the likes of Etta James, Jimmy Hughes, Wilson Pickett, Percy Sledge, Aretha Franklin, and many more, but his lone solo album, Pot Luck, finds Spooner in a rare role: front and center. Oldham moved west in the late '60s when the patronage of bands like The Stones and The Flying Burrito Brothers made southern soul the in-demand sound. He joined the house band at Hollywood's Producer's Workshop and was soon playing for The Lettermen and Liberace. While recording the latter, it was suggested that Oldham make his own album. "I don't really think I wanted it so much," Oldham says now. "I think it was shoved on me. We'd got all this stuff set up, and now what do we do?" Pot Luck is very much a record of two halves; Side A is an amalgamation of rarities penned with the likes of Dan Penn and Freddy Weller, while the B-side is a conceptual, seven-song medley covering some of the biggest hits Oldham played on, including "Cry Like A Baby," "Respect," and gospel standard "Will The Circle Be Unbroken." The sessions were largely unplanned. "We just went in," says collaborator Emory Gordy. "That's the best way Spooner works." In 1972, the album was released and quickly sank. Before long, the Producer's Workshop disbanded, too. Oldham carried on regardless, performing with The Everly Brothers, Bobby Womack, Gene Clark, Neil Young and–well, you name it. With this deluxe reissue of his solo LP, it's time for Oldham to get his own dues. "I don't think anybody, anywhere, at any time, has ever heard it," he says. "I'm just happy someone wants to hear it now."

The cookie era is ending and marketers need to jump on board with custom audience targeting. Here are five ways to maximize your ROI with this strategy.
Cookies are losing their value as ad targeting vehicles, in particular when compared to custom audiences. Not only are cookies often deleted, synchronization of cookies across devices requires a permanent common login.
Custom audience targeting sidesteps the weaknesses of cookie-based targeting, using a hashed email address as the universal targeting identifier. This email address is one's "passport" to the service environments provided by Google, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Yahoo, and Microsoft, among others.
The venerable HTTP cookie has been around for a long time (21 years). In fact, 10 long years ago, I wrote an article decrying its increasing obsolescence ("Crumbling Cookies Threaten SEM and Online Advertising") in the pages of ClickZ.com. At the time, however, there was no usable replacement for it.
Facebook pioneered the concept of custom audiences, launching its product in 2012. Advertisers seeking to use Custom Audiences on Facebook simply upload lists to the service (for example, customer/subscriber email addresses, phone numbers, app user ID numbers, or Facebook IDs), target this group, or even use the data to target "Lookalike" audiences (groups of people whose characteristics are similar to the uploaded list). Such "lookalike" audiences can be built from users on Facebook, website visitors, or mobile app users. According to Adobe, using "lookalike" audiences led to a three times improvement in conversions against ordinary Facebook targeting for one advertiser.
In late 2014, Twitter released a product similar to Facebook's called "Tailored Audiences" that included a "Lookalike Targeting" feature. In April of 2015, the Wall Street Journal reported that Google may soon launch a similar service. If this happens (and Google has an enormous database of user logins, gathering them from every point in its empire, from Android to Gmail to YouTube), online advertising may undergo a quantum leap in terms of accuracy, effectiveness, and ROI. For example, it may now be possible for an AdWords advertiser to target search ads using keyword data, search history, and actual buying behavior, an awesomely powerful data triumvirate.
Examine and optimize your physical touch points with customers. Marketers with a physical presence can use POS offers to increase email signups. Incentives (discounts, points, etc.) should be promoted that can secure the necessary opt-ins. A retail presence may be a killer advantage in the era of custom audiences.
Encourage email signups on your site. Email subscription forms are often buried in footer areas or other rarely-viewed areas. Make your email signup form large, legible, and give users a reason to sign-up, using incentives such as access to gated content areas. Also, consider promotions. I've got some ideas I'm working on and would value anyone's feedback who has used contests or sweepstakes in the past. Feel free to contact me and if it makes sense to chat, I'll happily make a donation to your chosen nonprofit cause.
Ramp up the mid-funnel content on your website. As I wrote on ClickZ back in November, 2014, "mid-funnel" content is key to moving your prospects from awareness closer to conversion. This content becomes more critically important in the age of custom audiences, because prospects expect something of value in return for disclosing their (increasingly valuable) email addresses.
Push email signups across your offline marketing. QR codes on print collateral can point users toward a signup form. Use a special offer only available through email signup. Provide incentives at trade shows for people to sign up. Create a custom URL for your video and radio spots that includes a signup form. Use every tool in your marketing arsenal to get opt-ins. This is an area that I've been experimenting heavily on. Results have been encouraging.
Experiment with custom audience targeting. Getting experience with custom audience targeting now will give you a killer advantage as this new targeting methodology grows in importance. Set aside some budget to begin accumulating intelligence and a set of best practices.
Custom audience targeting is changing the game. While cookie-based targeting will be with us for the next couple of years, the cookie era is ending, and marketers shouldn't cry about it. Instead, they need to get ahead of the big transition that's just around the corner.
What's your strategy for acquisition of the PII touch point data that you'll need to juice up your media and marketing plans for the next 10 years?
