Khlo? Kardashian Odom spices up Monday Night Raw as Social Media Ambassador

The WWE Universe got a little extra Kardashian flavor this past Monday night when Khlo? Kardashian Odom served as Social Media Ambassador to Raw 1,004 in Fresno, Calif. Khlo? certainly did not disappoint. Throughout the entire three-hour show, Khlo? stuck faithfully with the WWE Universe and provided spirited commentary on Raw General Manager AJ Lee?s fierceness (palpable), the Funkadactyls? dance skills (exquisite), Chris Jericho?s exit from WWE (tragic) and, finally, WWE Champion CM Punk?s left-field attack of an unsuspecting Jerry ?The King? Lawler (shocking).

So, as a final memento of the agony and the ecstasy of Raw 1,004, we give you Khlo??s tweets from the night, in full. Be sure to tune in next week when ?The Day? and ?Lost? star Dominic Monaghan assumes ambassadorial duties.

The television personality, fashion designer, businesswoman and radio host?has?more than 7 million Twitter followers! Her hit television series, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," airs Sunday nights at 9?p.m.?ET/PT on E! The season finale is Aug. 26.

11 Marketing Must-Haves to Launch a New Product | Noobpreneur ...

What must-have tool should small businesses include in their marketing campaign when launching a new product?

The following answers are provided by the Young Entrepreneur Council (YEC), an invite-only nonprofit organization comprised of the world?s most promising young entrepreneurs. The YEC recently published #FixYoungAmerica: How to Rebuild Our Economy and Put Young Americans Back to Work (for Good), a book of 30+ proven solutions to help end youth unemployment.

1. Mailchimp Is a Must

For every new product launch, we collect emails via MailChimp. We use their email campaign and auto-responder functionality to draft countdown emails so that our customers receive regular updates and pre-specified intervals prior to launch. These email campaigns get customers excited about our launch and result in increased conversion.

- Bhavin Parikh, Magoosh Test Prep

2. Landing Pages with Unbounce

Landing pages are a must when launching a new product. They let you easily focus the potential consumers attention on the actions that you deem desirable. With new products, money is scarce, so having the highest conversion rate is of necessity. My product of choice is Unbounce ? it?s dead simple to use, and they also have new and improved features for the advanced user.

- Lawrence Watkins, Great Black Speakers

3. Create a Dedicated Email

As you?re building buzz for your product, there must be a customer and sponsor support team ready to handle incoming questions. Put your email out there everywhere and encourage questions, ideas and communication. Don?t just have the email account, but be ready with resources, FAQs and engagement specialists to nurture your early adopters and raving fans and help them promote you further.

- Kelly Azevedo, She?s Got Systems

4. Set Up Google Analytics Properly

You can?t have a good marketing campaign without tracking in-depth analytics throughout the entire process. Not only is Google Analytics great because it?s free, but they continue to add more robust features for tracking every detail of each visitor on your site, which will help you understand the location, referrers/keywords, behaviors, site usage, and transactions of each of your visitors.

- Seth Kravitz, Technori

5. Incorporate Retargeting Pixels.

Use a service like ReTargeter or AdWords Remarketing in order to drop cookies for first-time visitors to your website, so that you have the opportunity to remarket to them later and stay top of mind. Start building your remarketing list from day one.

- Matt Mickiewicz, Flippa

6. Utilize Hacker News

Hacker News is a great place to launch a product. If you submit your site correctly, it could drive thousands of visits within a few hours and collect excellent feedback. Make sure to read how to use Hacker News first though!

- Ben Lang, EpicLaunch

7. Put In a Squeeze Page

If I had to recommend one tool for any product launch, it would be a ?squeeze page,? also known as an opt-in page. Get an account with an email service provider (ESP), create a squeeze page, and point potential customers to it during your pre-launch. Send emails to your subscriber list building anticipation for the launch, and then offer your subscribers a limited-time offer upon the launch.

- Pete Kennedy, Main Street ROI

8. Let People Use Your Product!

If the goal is to get people to use your product and talk about your product, then it seems logical that you should get that product into as many hands as possible. If it?s online, this means a trial. If it?s food, it means having tons of samples. If it?s jeans, give away your jeans. You can talk and hype something all you want, but the product speaks for itself. A worthwhile investment.

- Luke Burgis, ActivPrayer

9. Bloggers Create the Buzz

A lot of small businesses focus on long-lead, print media without realizing the power of blogs. Even relatively small blogs have the power to convert sales with links in a much more powerful way than print ever can ? and even have the potential to take on their life of their own through social sharing.

- Alexis Wolfer, The Beauty Bean

10. Coordinate a Social Media Push

Including fans in the conversation or decision-making process prior to launch is by far the most valuable pre-promotion you can do. We generally narrow new watch designs or colors down to three or four options before running a vote on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest. It?s our ?Threadless meets Kickstarter? model: whether we receive 100 votes or 1,000, we learn from our biggest advocates!

- Aaron Schwartz, Modify Watches

11. Collect Real Testimonials and Reviews

No matter what else you do to market a new product, you need to have proof that it does what you say it does. Getting people outside your company to try the product and talk about it is the only initial source of that proof that you can set up before the product goes on the market. So make the effort to get testimonials and reviews from beta testers and pre-launch customers.

- Thursday Bram, Hyper Modern Consulting

Students With Special Needs Staying In Traditional Public Schools

LOS ANGELES -- The high cost of educating students with special needs is disproportionately falling on traditional public schools as other students increasingly opt for alternatives that aren't always readily open to those requiring special education.

The issue is particularly acute in districts where enrollment has declined due to demographic changes such as low birth rates and population shifts combined with an influx of charter schools and voucher programs that have siphoned off students.

School district officials say all schools that receive public funds should share the cost of special education.

"It raises an ethical responsibility question," said Eric Gordon, chief executive officer of Cleveland Metropolitan School District. "We welcome our students with special needs, but the most expensive programming is on public districts."

In Cleveland, the district has lost 41 percent of its students since 1996 while its proportion of students with special needs rose from 13.4 percent to 22.9 percent last year. In Milwaukee, enrollment has dropped by nearly 19 percent over the past decade, but the percentage of students with disabilities has risen from 15.8 percent in 2002 to 19.7 percent in 2012.

Los Angeles, the nation's second largest system with 665,000 students, has seen enrollment slide by 8.5 percent since 2005-06, while its special needs population has increased from 11 percent to 13 percent.

The U.S. Department of Education's office of civil rights is investigating charter school practices relating to students with disabilities in five districts around the country, said Russlyn Ali, assistant secretary of civil rights. The probes, which look at admissions, curriculum and accommodation of needs, are the first of their kind, said Ali, who would not release the names of the districts.

While the number of students with special needs has not increased, the rising proportion has driven up costs for cash-strapped schools. Special education, which requires speech pathologists, psychologists and trained teachers, and sometimes special facilities and equipment, can cost four times more than general education. Federal funds only cover a fraction of the extra expense.

Public Schools of Philadelphia, for example, spent $9,100 per regular education pupil in 2009, $14,560 per pupil with milder disabilities and $39,130 for more severe disabilities, according to a consultant's report that compared special education costs. Other districts cited report similar numbers: Los Angeles Unified spent $6,900 to school a regular education student, $15,180 for a pupil with milder disabilities and $25,530 for a child with significant needs.

With budget shortfalls creating staffing crunches and federal law requiring putting children with disabilities in regular classrooms when possible to remove the stigma and encourage diversity, general education teachers now may find a number of pupils with special needs in their classes.

"There used to be one or two. You'd sit them at the front of the class, but now there are 10 or 12," said Barbara Schulman, an Orange County special education teacher who heads the California Teachers Association's special education committee. "Teachers need to know what they're doing."

Most charter, parochial and magnet schools serve children with disabilities, but they are often milder disabilities, leaving the brunt of students with significant needs in traditional district schools.

Special needs enrollment in Philadelphia district schools and charters is roughly 14 percent, but about half the district's pupils with special needs have severe disabilities compared to about a third for charters.

Charter proponents say schools do not turn away kids with disabilities or ask if an applicant has disabilities, which is illegal, and note that in six states ? Nevada, Wyoming, Iowa, Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania ? charters serve more pupils with special needs than local districts

As districts increasingly offer other options, kids with disabilities are not enrolling in the alternatives at the same rate. Some parents may feel their child is better served with a traditional public school, said Ursula Wright, interim president and chief executive of the National Alliance of Public Charter Schools.

"Charter schools give all parents opportunities for choices. Sometimes the choice is not to select a charter school," she said.

Some charters, such as Partnership to Uplift Communities, have made serving special needs their mission. The Los Angeles charter organization has special needs enrollment ranging from 9 percent to 17 percent at its 13 schools.

Many charters have been reluctant to tackle special education because they lack expertise, but that is starting to change, said Kaye Ragland, who heads special education for the Partnership.

Districts have started to reach out to charters to collaborate more on special education. Some, like Los Angeles Unified, are training charter teachers. Denver Public Schools has gone further.

Two years ago, the district requested that charter operators agree to a mission of equity in schools and included clauses in charter contracts stipulating that they must install programs for severe special needs if required.

Aided by district-provided training and funding, several charter operators now host centers specializing in autism, emotional disturbance and cognitive delay, serving 15 percent of the district's students with significant needs. More centers are in the works, said John Simmons, executive director of student services for Denver schools.

"We want to realize this idea of equity between traditional district schools and non-traditional schools. It's about looking at schools on a level playing field," he said.

Parents like Matthew Asner, whose 9-year-old son with autism attends a traditional Los Angeles Unified school, hope the issue gets figured it out soon. He'd like the fourth-grader to go to charter middle and high schools, but knows it's a challenge to find one that accommodates autistic students and has openings.

"I don't think we've got a good handle on this," said Asner, who is executive director of Autism Speaks, an advocacy organization. "We don't want to see this kind of exclusion."

Health and Fitness ? Buying Used Fitness Equipment

If you are dedicated to your health and fitness, but are sick and tired of the time it takes to work out at the gym you might want to look into getting used fitness equipment for your home. With the right knowledge you will be able to find equipment that is in perfect condition, for a fraction of the price.

With the economy the way it is right now if you are going to buy anything you should be buying it at a discount. These steep price reductions are available because most people are selling off anything in their home, they aren?t using, for extra cash. On websites like E-Bay, Overstock, or Craig?s List you should be able to find just about anything you need.

There are also people who have defaulted on their finance payments for their fitness equipment. You can assume or pay off their balance to get their used machines at a steep discount.

Buy Only What You Need

Let?s face it. Some of the fitness equipment out there is a bit ridiculous. You don?t need half of the stuff commercials try to sell to you. What is important is that you value your own health and fitness.

Otherwise you are wasting your money, time, and space in your house or apartment. So make sure you have a solid commitment to health and fitness before you make your purchase.

For cardio workouts treadmills, rowing machines, bikes, and elliptical machines work great. You really only need one in your home to get the cardio you need so pick the machine based on the workout you enjoy doing the most.

For heavy lifting or toning of the entire body a simple used resistance machine, like the Total Gym or a Bowflex are all you need. Good workout benches, dumbbells and free weight sets are also easy to find.

Try It Out First

If you are unsure as to what kind or type of used fitness equipment you would like for your home then you should go to the gym and try some out and see what you like. Remember to make sure that it is a machine you are going to have fun using over and over again. Then look on-line and see what is available.

Also remember that most used fitness machines don?t come with a warrantee, or if they do it is generally short, so you are often stuck with what you buy once you get it. Try to find some customer reviews of the product before you buy it to see if there are common problems associated with it.

Is It Going To Fit?

Believe it or not, some people don?t take into account the space that is needed for fitness equipment and end up with something they don?t have room for. Most fitness equipment is also quite heavy so make sure that your floor is going to be able to handle it.

If you follow the above recommendations you should be able to find the used fitness machine(s) you need. Once you have one in your home you will find that staying focused on your health and fitness is easier and more convenient.

Physical Therapy & Home Care Following a Broken Hip


Frail or weak bones are bones easily broken.? In the?equation of senior + fall + brittle bones (osteoporosis) = fractures.

Fractures can cause hospitalization and rehab stays, and may cause life changes to? occur such as needing long term care either in the home or in a facility.

Very fragile bones can even break from deep coughing or banging. Hips, wrists or vertebrae in the spine are the most common fractures related to Osteoporosis.

Bones lose and gain tissue ? mass. Osteoporosis happens when more bone density/tissue is lost than is made. It happens in both genders but more often in older women. Fortunately we can strengthen bones with weight-bearing exercise ? WALKING, calcium with vitamin D3 (so the body can absorb the calcium)?supplements and medication.

As always, an ounce of prevention?..

The best ways to keep bones healthy and strong are to keep excercing a few times a week, intake enough Calcium and Viatmin D ? which comes from the sun.

Best sources of Calcium naturally are: low-fat diary? foods like , yogurt or milk, deep green, leafy vegetables like spinach or Kale, Salmon or sardines ? with the bones ? usually canned, Tofu or other soy products and calcium fortified foods like cereal or orange juice. You can also take up to 2000 ml of calcium as a supplement per day.

?

Symptoms once?your bones have weakend?include:

* Increase of fractured or broken bones

* Height loss, or a stooped over posture

* Back pain?caused by vertebra breaks

* Family history of Osteoporosis

* Extended use of corticosteroid? medications

If you are experiencing any of these, speak of your concern

with your doctor.

If you watch television, you are aware of many medications which you can take for different durations of effect. You likely recognize the names of: Fosamax. Boniva, Actonel ? again, speak with your doctor for medical advise on which medication? or other treatments may be most helpful to you.

?????????? Remember, strong(er) bones may not prevent a fall, but they can help prevent a bone fracture resulting from a fall. Please, add some grab bars to your shower. If you have a cane or walker ? use it. A fall which results in a serious fracture can turn your life inside out.
