  • So called metabolic syndrome – a combination of increased waist circumference, glucose intolerance, hypertension, low HDL and elevated triglycerides – is a common link between the development of both diabetes and heart disease. Thus, risk factors for heart disease must be evaluated in patients with diabetes.

  • Tunneling is generally done by encapsulating the private network data and protocol information within the public network transmission units so that the private network protocol information appears to the public network as data.

Scavenger Hunt Ideas - 0 views

  • A Picture Hunt Instead of looking for objects, you can have teams take pictures. Give one member of each group a camera (if you are hosting a party for kids, have one adult in each group carry a camera). Then send them out to find certain landmarks in the neighborhood. Have them take pictures of each item on the list.
  • Hunting for Information Rather than having teams look for objects, you can ask them to collect information. Teams can find dates on certain buildings, count the number of houses on a certain block, gather facts from historic landmarks, etc. To do this, map out a route that the teams will take. This is an inexpensive way for teams to collect information, learn and have fun at the same time.
  • Hunting for Sound Rather than looking for objects, have teams carry a tape recorder. Give them a list of different sounds to listen to. When they find the sound, they record it. Certain sounds might include the ringing of a bell, the ticking of a clock, a radio station jingle, etc. Set a certain time frame and see how many sounds teams can find in the allotted time.

Do You Decarboxylate Your Weed Before You Cook With It? It Is Highly Recommended | Food... - 0 views

  • Gray explains the science thusly: "Raw cannabis contains a lot of THCA, which is nonreactive. When you smoke cannabis, it heats up to a certain temperature and loses a CO2 molecule and becomes THC, which has the psychoactive benefits that many users are looking for." Simply simmering cannabis in butter, or oil, isn't always enough to fully convert all of the THCA into THC, he continues. And so, the result is less than optimal: "You're going to make a very dull cannabutter," he says. The best method, Gray says, involves some added prep work. "So, instead of just, say, sticking your cannabis in butter or sticking it in oil, you should first grind it onto a baking sheet, stick it in your oven at 310-degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 to 18 minutes. That allows it to become psychoactive and it's ready to cook with."

What's the Message for Marketing in Facebook's IPO Slide? | CMO Strategy - Advertising Age - 0 views

shared by Levy Rivers on 23 May 12 - No Cached
  • Facebook's sole function is engagement. It connects people with one another. Its $3 billion in revenue and $1 billion profit come from advertisers who believe that there must be ways for brands to profit from that engagement. They don't know how to do it yet. The two hypotheses they're testing are putting ads around it, and trying to actually host some of it via branded pages interspersed with people pages. There's no evidence that either yields much beyond nice-to-have benefit, and some experimenters (most recently GM) have given up trying, for now. Again, since Facebook makes money either way, I'd take a small piece of such failure and consider my life's work a success. But the bet on the inherent value of engagement is still a bet, and at $38 a share times however many zillions of shares got floated on the market, it's a huge one.

  • They bought them because they wanted big cars — and because gas was cheap. If gas stays cheap, Americans would be less inclined to squeeze their families into a lithe fuel-efficient alternative.

      Because tax policy favored - SUV use
  • The recent infatuation with the Toyota Prius and other fuel-efficient cars could well come to a similar end. It took a gallon of gas at $4.10 to push the share of light trucks down to 45 percent in July. But as gasoline plummeted back to $1.60 a gallon, their share inched back up to 49 percent of auto sales in November.

Social Networking Demystified - What is it, and how does it work? | Vision Advertising - 0 views

shared by Levy Rivers on 24 Oct 08 - Cached
  • Let’s define social networking for those not familiar with it. “Social networking” is a technology-based means of communication utilizing the power and variety of the Internet to provide an infinite variety of tools and offerings
  • People can leverage these sites to create a sense of presence that even traditional marketing experts can appreciate: brand awareness, lead generation, information sharing and so on. And the real keys to success are the same as in traditional marketing: frequency, relevancy and cross-marketing, to name a few.
  • Critics claim that social networking is merely a gimmick. In reality, while it is true that social networking alone will not likely produce substantial leads in the absence of other critical methodologies, it IS true that combined with other methods, and when used regularly, social networking can, and has, produced excellent results.

Twitter and Yammer Test Dot-Com Business Models - 0 views

  • The two poles of the debate are apparent in the world of microblogging, where people use the Web or their cellphones to blast short updates on their activities to a group of virtual followers. Twitter, a start-up company in San Francisco that has become a household name, is the leading microblogging outfit. At least three million people have tried its free service, according to TwitDir, a directory service. But Twitter has absolutely no revenue — not even ads.
  • Twitter has drawn much attention in the tech world since the service began in 2006. When a user is logged in through the Web or a cellphone, it asks one simple question, “What are you doing?” Users answer in 140 characters or less. While some of these “tweets” have the profundity of haiku, most are mundane, like “Sure is pretty out tonight” or “My eyes itch. I am very aggravated.”
  • Yammer tweaks the question, asking, “What are you working on?” The goal, said its chief executive, David Sacks, is to make offices more productive. People on Yammer update colleagues on company events or ask work-related questions without clogging e-mail boxes with mass mailings.

  • The control of costs had been its greatest strength. But it was now the greatest weakness. The company had spent so many years trying to reduce expenses that this imperative was hardwired into its practices, processes, and organizational design. When executives tried to shift gears, to expand into new markets and introduce new products, those old ways of doing business also had to change.
  • Meanwhile, consumers were growing increasingly sophisticated. They wanted more information about Amberville’s products. So did institutional customers, such as schools and restaurant chains. Some Amberville marketers saw the opportunity to build Web sites and use other online channels to connect directly with consumers. But these efforts faltered amid the sheer complexity of multiple product categories. And their failure led many people in the company to conclude that even the business units that were closest to Amberville customers had lost their market focus and speed.
