My Facebook Formula

The Nuts and Bolts

 The internet and social media sites especially have led to the line between our social and professional lives blurring ever more with each passing day. Social media sites give people the opportunity to connect with old friends, make new ones and expand their professional network with only a few clicks, from the comfort of their own home.

Social media sites have redefined the concept of globalization, which was the „in‟ word two decades ago for large corporations. Unfortunately for the latter, the current globalization concept has allowed businesses of all sizes to tap the benefits of being present in a wide number of markets.

 
This is because the internet has become a business channel that is practically free and companies are no longer required to make massive investments in building an offline, local presence in whichever market they choose to expand into. In fact, why expand into a single geographical market, when one can access the world with a few clicks of the mouse?

Of course, this doesn‟t mean that it‟s easy to compete against the giants, but, after all, why take on a giant when you can still build a profitable and sustainable business that will change your life and that of future generations of your family without competing directly with the giants. 

 

 The one advantage you have, as a small business owner, over a large corporation is relationships. Yes, you heard right! You are more likely to spend time building relationships with your customers than any large corporation as they are mostly focused on their bottom line and ROI, overlooking strategies and tactics that may not convert into tangible results immediately. However, even the „big boys‟ are beginning to understand the value of social media sites and building relationships with their customers, which is why you need to jump on this train of opportunity before it passes you by.

What you need to understand is that the change that has and is taking place is not in the core concepts of marketing, which are more applicable than ever, but in consumer behavior. You see, social media sites have given consumers a voice of their own and they are less likely to fall for advertising campaigns that cost millions to put together. Instead of rushing out to buy a brand new, shiny product, most consumers‟ first stop is their favorite social media website to research the product in question.

For companies who simply „don‟t get‟ the social media space, this can be a killer. However, for those savvy entrepreneurs who understand the new consumer, this is a resource that can be leveraged to create an incredibly successful business.

Why You Need to Be Present

 Facebook currently has over 400 million users, making it larger than many of the world‟s nations and it is growing every day. Additionally, this social media platform‟s demographics are so diverse that it makes an ideal marketing vehicle. In fact, more than 50 percent of U.S. users are 26 years old and above, meaning that your marketing efforts will meet with even greater success as these are usually the people who make direct purchase decisions.

Likewise, many businesses are also wising-up to the necessity of integrating social media into their traditional marketing strategies, which includes Facebook. Ergo, whether you are in the B2B or B2C sector, you will still find Facebook highly effective.

However, you do need to remember that it is only a marketing tool as the principles have remained the same. In other words, identify your target market, understand their needs and wants, build a relationship with them and only then attempt to sell to them.

The key to successful social media marketing is to understand your audience and to build a relationship with them. Consumers aren‟t interested in doing business with faceless companies that hide behind a logo. Especially when they have so many other choices. So, let‟s get into the nitty gritty of marketing on Facebook and creating a brand that will have consumers running to you.

Night Star - Alyson Noel

“You’l never beat me. You’l never win this one, Ever. It’s impossible. You can’t do it. So why waste your time?”

 
I narrow my gaze and peer into her face—taking in her smal , pale features, her dark cloud of hair, the absence of light in her hate-fil ed gaze.

My teeth clenched tightly, voice low and measured, I say, “Don’t be so sure. You’re running a serious risk of overestimating yourself. In fact, you are overestimating yourself. I’m one hundred percent sure of it.”

 
She scoffs. Loudly, derisively, the sound of it echoing throughout the large empty room, bouncing off the plank wood floors to the bare white wal s, meant to scare, or at the very least intimidate and throw me off my game.

But it won’t work.

 
Can’t work.

I’m too focused for that.

Al of my energy concentrated down to one single point, until everything else fades away and it’s just me, my readied fist, and Haven’s third chakra—also known as the solar plexus chakra—the home of anger, fear, hate, and the tendency toward putting too much emphasis on power, recognition, and revenge.

My gaze narrowed on its location like a bul ’s-eye, right smack dab in the center of her leather-clad torso. Knowing that one quick, wel -directed jab is al it’l take to reduce her to nothing more than a sad bit of history.

 
A cautionary tale of power gone wrong.

Gone.

In an instant.

Leaving nothing behind but a pair of black stiletto boots and a smal pile of dust—the only real reminder that she was ever here.

Even though I never wanted it to get to this point, even though I tried to work it out, tried to reason with her, to convince her to come to her senses so we could move toward some kind of understanding—cut some kind of deal —in the end, she refused to give up.

Refused to give in. 

Refused to let go of her misguided quest for revenge. Leaving me with no choice but to kil or be kil ed. Leaving me with no doubt of how this one ends.

“You’re too weak.” She circles. Moving slowly, careful y, her gaze never once leaving mine. The stiletto heels of her boots assaulting the floor as she says, “You’re no match for me.

Never were, never wil be.” She stops and places her hands on her hips, head cocked to the side, al owing a stream of glossy dark waves to fal over her shoulder and hang wel past her waist. “You could’ve let me die months ago. You already had your chance. But you chose to give me the elixir instead. And now you regret it? Because you don’t approve of what I’ve become?” She pauses long enough to rol her eyes.

“Wel too bad. You have only yourself to blame. You’re the one who made me this way. I mean, what kind of creator kil s her own creation, anyway?”

“I may have made you an immortal, but you took it from there,” I say, the words firm, deliberate, ground out between clenched teeth, despite Damen having coached me to stay quiet, stay focused, to make it swift and clean, and not unnecessarily engage her in any way. Save your regrets for later, he said.

 
But the fact that we’ve found ourselves here means there is no later where Haven’s concerned. And despite what it’s come to, I’m stil determined to get to her, to reach her, before it’s too late.

 
“We don’t have to do this.” My gaze locks on hers, hoping to convince. “We can stop right here, right now. This doesn’t have to go any further than it already has.”

The Emotionally Intelligent Nurse Leader

“WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE A NURSE?” one might ask a little girl or boy with such aspirations. And the child might reply, “I want to take care of people and make them feel better.” There is something quite compelling about that possibility to a young person who has discovered her own ability to affect the well-being and feelings of others, and many nurses can recall a similar drive propelling them into their chosen career.

Where Did the Time Go?
A registered nurse who graduated from nursing school in the early 1990s remembers learning the textbook methods of giving back rubs, making beds, and turning and bathing patients. Accordingly, clinical experiences, at least the fundamental ones, required mastery of these and other skills involved in “taking care of people and making them feel better.” But when she emerged onto the cardiac step-down unit for the first time as a registered nurse, she salvaged very little time for these niceties. “I spent almost half of my time documenting,” she recalls, “and a good deal of that was done after reporting off to the next shift.” Time with patients was confined to the minutes required to do a head-to-toe assessment at the beginning of the shift, medication rounds every two hours, and confirmationthat intravenous pumps and other equipment were running smoothly. “If I spent extra time with a patient,” she says, “it was because that patient called me. If there was a problem that wasn’t quick to solve, it usually meant staying later to chart or being late with someone else’s medications.” On the anxiety-laden cardiac floor, time was at a premium, and the proverbial squeaky wheels eked out what little remained once the essential tasks were completed.

Gone were the minutes, or even hours, that the nurse once passed by the patient’s bedside, conversing and teaching in relaxed, nonstructured ways. Gone was the careful attention to how the patient was really coping with his illness. Gone also was the time to reassure, the time to get acquainted, the time to understand. But certainly the essential nature of reassuring, getting acquainted, and understanding is inherent in any nurse’s value structure. Nursing schools tout the emotional element of compassion as fundamental to bedside care.

In reality, there was once more time specifically allocated to compassion in health care than there is today. Nurses who have practiced for thirty to forty years can recall roles and responsibilities much different from those of their younger counterparts. Supporting the patient has taken on a different meaning, a meaning that many older nurses have found difficult to reconcile with the concept of care they learned earlier. Complicated treatment plans, intense drug regimens, and increasingly acute conditions have cornered the nurse between technological accuracy and bedside grace. The hospital is not the world it once was.

 

What Has Happened to Our Patients?

Not surprisingly, patients have also changed. They are sicker, confined only during the most crucial hours of their recovery. Because patients are sent home so quickly, planning for discharge begins during the admitting process. Patients are expected to independently accomplish in hours what convalescents of the past would have been led through over days or even weeks. They are wheeled in, wheeled through, and wheeled out amid an array of scans, pokes, prods, opinions, discharge instructions, and multiple staff. They are anxious. Their families are anxious. The fact is that patients and their families bring fear, apprehension, anger, and grief to the hospital, just as they did forty years ago. What has changed is nurses’ opportunity to deal with these emotions. The environment in which the emotions are experienced has changed as well.

The Emotional Cure

If one were to imagine the scientific advance most immediately needed in nursing, perhaps it would be a way to encapsulate and mete out a cure for the emotions that ail patients entering the health care system, just as we have streamlined and perfected many technical aspects of patient care. However, we could not expect this cure to come in a measured dose or a prescribed protocol. Instead, we would need to be able to

• Identify an emotional state almost instantly
• Understand what the emotion could lead to if unregulated or what it might represent in the patient’s recovery process
• Understand the emotion’s effect on the family, ourselves, and other caregivers
• Allow our own emotional state to maintain equilibrium in the face of intense emotions of others
• Help patients, families, and colleagues to manage and regulate their own emotions (Mayer, Salovey, and Caruso, 2000, 2002)

Ebook Estate Playing Cards

IntroductionEstate Playing Cards is the new card deck for the 21st Century. This guide is the companion to the pack and does not set out to duplicate books on card games. There is a full explanation of the deck and suggested variations to many popular card games. For card enthusiasts the guide is a primer aimed at generating discussion on where to take Estate Playing Cards. By exploring the deck and road testing it with card playing friends, a host of fresh ideas will hopefully lead to more guides and games.

The guide covers a brief history of cards including some ancient evidence for five estates as opposed to four suits; explains the deck in full; examines variations to some popular single player games; moves on to player games; covers some of the well known partner games; before finally adding a touch of mystery and imagination to Estate Playing Cards. The cards can only be purchased on ebay by typing 5 Suit Playing Cards in the search window.


HistoryDating from over 2000 BC in ancient Babylon, the Divine Feminine is equal in strength, passion, magic, wit, power and joy to the Divine Masculine. In the last two thousand years the god has existed without the goddess yet the images of the feminine and masculine that come from that region bring forth perceptions that are at once age-old and incredibly modern to our times reflecting a contemporary worldview that does not restrict the experience of femininity to the male-defined other, and vice-versa. Witness the absence of a Queen in early European decks.

Cards base their symbols in many different forms throughout China gradually evolving from knucklebones through dice and dominoes. It was probable that in the perfect sequence there were 9 pieces of 5 suits – bags, money, batons or bows, swords, and a fifth undefined, and therefore dismissed, mark. This suggests that Europeans, who knew nothing whatever about them, would settle on four instead of five suits.

Playing cards were probably adapted from the game of chess, first found in Hindostan, in about 450 A.D. The arrival of playing cards in Europe from India and China can be dated to the late Middle Ages. Despite regional variations in naming of the four suits, their popularity for games, for telling fortunes, even for teaching children their numbers, has endured. The basic divisions into court and other cards have lasted as well.

In cards from the East, the pack number and shape of cards varied from Europe as did the number of suits. Indian and Persian packs consisted of eight and ten suits.

In 1377, Brother Johannes von Rheinfelden, a Dominican friar, described variant packs containing queens, or two kings and two queens each with their 'marschalli', or packs containing five or six kings each (i.e. 5 or 6 suits) with 'marschalli', or even four kings, four queens making packs of up to 60. A group of patterns, referred to as hunting decks, from 15th century Germany had no trumps, and their composition was basically similar to Moorish decks with different suits systems using hunting or hunted animals. Deers, hounds, falcons and nooses were sometimes extended to a fifth suit featuring shields.

The popularity of cards was not always thus. Accounts through the centuries refer to cards as an invention of the devil, with kings and court cards symbolizing idols and false gods. There are innumerable references, usually from church and state, across millennia, banning or at least discouraging the playing of cards, and not surprisingly a bit of heraldic hypocrisy is never far away.

A series of engraved copper plates from Italy dated around 1470 are thought to be the source of European cards. These fifty cards are divided into five groups of 10 cards. The five groups portray Positions in Life, Muses, Sciences, Virtues and Planets or the Creation of the World. The five suits are also referred to as Trumps, Scepters, Cups, Pentacles and Swords barely remarkable similarity to the Tarot.

Towards the end of the nineteenth century a set of forty numeral cards of four suits was produced in Germany. The scenes painted on the cards depicted the history of the four “great” continents – Africa, Asia, Europe and America. Australia would be added later with the introduction in the 21st century of Estate Playing Cards.


21st CenturyEstate Playing Cards brings ancient oblations, 15th century Italy and traditional four suit card decks into the 21st Century through synthesis and modernization. It augments the popular four suits - Church, Corporation, Community, Military with the fifth estate - the Media; replaces the royal & joker cards with family & imperial cards respectively thereby increasing the number of cards in the pack.

While five suit decks have been around for almost a century, Estate Playing Cards is a more fundamental modification to traditional playing cards; changes that not only reflect more accurately the modern world but retain some of the earliest features of ancient cards from Europe and Asia.

The standard pack has been increased from 52 to 60 Cards consisting of five suits Waves, Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs and Spades. These suits are referred to as Estates. Each estate contains 12 cards – Ace, Woman, Man, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. There are also two imperial cards, the Pope and the President, replacing the Joker, making a total of 62 cards.

The New Estate is called Waves, representing signals put out by various media. The symbol used is a graphic of a transmission wave.

Most existing card games can be played with an estate deck. Some remain virtually unchanged while others require modifications. This guide covers basic rules for several well known games and any changes or variations generated by the estate deck. Detailed instructions and strategies for conventional games may follow in a forthcoming book. The traditional estates have had several name changes, however the Media has never been included until now.

Ebook XML Processing with Perl, Python, and PHP

Almost ten years ago, my introduction to the commercial world was handling and dealing with the databases of a UK government body. We used a free text-retrieval system to store information about software products, teachers, and trainers. Although we had fields for the information, when we entered a search, we were searching the whole document, not just one field or a collection of them.

One of my jobs was to write programs that processed the information, deduced the fields, extracted compound addresses and telephone numbers, and tidied up the results to put into a new version of the database.

Access to the database was through a Sun-based Unix system, and the PCs and Macs on the network didn’t talk to each other, but they did talk over Telnet to the Sun database server. You could do searches, edit information, and cut and paste, but you had no control over how the information looked without manually massaging the text you’d just copied.

Ten Years Later

Ten years later, for the most part I still do the same thing, although not with the same company or the same information. Ultimately, though, I’m still working with databases and storage systems that rely on managing and dealing with a lot of text, but in a structured way that is somehow intelligent enough to know what I’m storing but flexible enough not to restrict what it is I want to store.

The information I’m dealing with has to be accessible on a number of different platforms. In my home office alone, I’ve got Macs, Unix, Linux, at least five different versions of Windows, and handhelds running EPOC32 and PalmOS. They support different character sets, and I have to be able to convert the information into more usable formats, such as HTML for display, or stored in more rigid systems, like an RDBMS.

What should I use? Do I play with a free text-retrieval system again?

If I use a database system, how will I transfer my contacts from my desktop Mac to my portable Windows notebook or to Palm? If I want to view the information online, can I convert it easily? If I build an application that provides me with access to the information, how do I go about storing my preferences? How do I make the information available over the network in a format that can be accessed by all the machines that need to use it?

This is the fourth edition of a landmark book, the book that signaled the coming of age of the Internet. Development of the protocols for the Internet started around 1974, and they had been in limited but real use starting in the early 80's, but as of 1987, there was still no good introduction to how they worked or how to code them. The standards documents for TCP, IP and the other protocols existed, of course, but the true truth - the collection of knowledge and wisdom necessary to implement a protocol stack and actually expect it to work - that was a mystery, known only to a small band of the initiated. That was not a good thing, and the initiated knew it. But it takes a lot of effort to pull all the right stuff together and write it down. We waited, knowing that a good book explaining TCP/IP would be an important step towards the broad acceptance of our protocols.

And Doug wrote the book.

We told jokes, waiting for the book. We looked to see how many books there were in mature fields, and speculated that the number of books was a metric of success. I actually went and looked to see how many books there were on "how to build a compiler" (a post-mature field by now, perhaps - time to count the books again). The compiler community was well off, and even "how to build a database" was available. But nothing on "how to build a TCP/IP." And then we got our book.

Of course, knowing that back then this was a landmark book is not enough to make you buy it. Collectors might want to find the fist edition, but that gives the true truth as of 12 years ago, a long time in Internet years. And that is why this is the fourth edition. A lot has changed over that time. We have learned a lot more, the field has grown up, whole new protocols have emerged, and Doug has rewritten the book three times. That is a measure both of how much and how fast the field changes, and how much work must go into keeping this book current. It has all the new stuff, and our best current knowledge about all the old stuff.

Other things have changed in 12 years. Not only has the Internet grown up, but some of our heroes have grown old, and some have died. The foreword to the first edition was written by Jon Postel, one of the true Internet pioneers, who died in the fall of 1998. Below, we have reprinted the foreword he wrote for the first edition. Much is the same, but much has changed. This is still a very readable book both for details on TCP/IP and for an introduction to communications protocols in general. But in 1987, Jon wrote "Computer communication systems and networks are currently separated and fragmented. The goal of interconnection and internetworking, to have a single powerful computer communication network, is fundamental to the design of TCP/IP." Only 12 years ago networks were fragmented; today the Internet unites the world. And TCPD is still the glue, at the core of the Internet, that makes all this work. And this is still the book to read to learn about it.
