Product Overview Support for DDR4 XMP up to 3333MHz
DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the frequency and timings of the supported memory modules to work in par with your CPU. With the X99 Champion Series, GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility with profiles up to 3333MHz.

What is XMP?
The synchronization of the memory modules with the CPU is crucial for good performance of your system. DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but as frequency tweaking requires a considerable amount of effort and knowledge, memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the timings of the supported memory modules to work with your CPU and to achieve increased performance.
* XMP Profile support may vary depending on memory module. Please refer "Memory Support List" for more information.

How to Master Franchise Marketing Without Having to Clone Yourself

A lot falls on the shoulders of the franchise marketer. You may be wearing a number of different hats, playing the role of marketing strategist, website development lead, campaign manager, content writer, social media guru, and brand police, just to name a few. How do you get it all done? It may sometimes feel impossible, especially if you have hundreds of franchise locations to oversee.

Ever wish you could just clone yourself?

Fortunately, there are ways to streamline your digital franchise marketing efforts so you don’t have to feel like you’re constantly being pulled in a million different directions. With the right strategies, tools, and support, you can turn chaos into a well-oiled machine that allows you achieve your marketing goals on time and within budget. What better way to show your bosses that you’re truly an expert at your job?

Below are a few tips for mastering franchise marketing without having to clone yourself:

Hire a Marketing Team & Delegate: As the marketing mastermind at your franchise, your skills are best used guiding your franchise network’s overall marketing strategy, monitoring its overall success, and maintaining strong communication with your franchisees—rather than handling all the miniscule details of coding a website or managing numerous pay-per-click advertising campaigns.

This is where it’s helpful to hire an Internet marketing partner that can handle all of the day-to-day tasks for you so you can focus on the big picture (and get everything done). It helps to work with a single, full-service digital marketing company rather than several vendors for each different area of your marketing. Why deal with the struggle of getting all your different vendors on the same page and working together when you could have one partner that seamlessly integrates your website design, search engine optimization (SEO), online advertising, social media, and more?

Simplify the Process of Tracking Your Data: Why dig for data (which can take up hours of your time) when you could have it automatically generated and clearly laid out for you? Here at Scorpion, we offer our franchise clients an online marketing platform that makes it easy for them to track website traffic, organic rankings, PPC campaign performance, leads, and more. All you have to do is login and you have a wealth of data that shows you exactly how your various digital marketing efforts are performing, which is great for tracking your return on investment (ROI).

According to HubSpot’s 2015 State of Inbound report, proving return on investment (ROI) of marketing activities was the number one challenge of both B2B and B2C marketers. And 32% of digital marketers and enterprise companies said making analytics actionable was one of their top three challenges, according to a 2016 study by Experian.

To take you analytics a step further, we make it possible for you to integrate our platform with your customer relationship management (CRM) system so you have a more complete picture of how your marketing campaign and leads are tied to your customer acquisition and revenue. Read more about our award-winning marketing platform.

Pre-Schedule Your Content: Consistency is key when blogging and engaging followers on social media. If you are only posting your content sporadically when you have pockets of time, you risk slipping out of the spotlight and losing the interest of your followers. With a good content management system (CMS) and social media management platform, you can pre-schedule your posts so they’re ready to go at the right time. That way you can work on your content in bulk when you have the time and not have to worry about gaps in your posting schedule.

Having trouble generating enough content ideas to keep up with the demand? Try using content strategy tools such as BuzzSumo, which allows you to identify the highest trending content for certain keywords. This is a great way to get ideas for your own franchise blog and social media content.

Are you a franchise marketer who needs support? Call Scorpion today!

When Rachel Lindsay first stepped into our office, I was in awe. I might not be an avid follower of The Bachelor universe and all its many shows, but these days, it's hard to not know who Lindsay is.

First and foremost, Lindsay's an attorney—a career woman who's spent almost a decade establishing herself at a Dallas law firm. She's also a TV personality. Lindsay charmed reality TV viewers in 2016 when she appeared as a contestant on Nick Viall's season of The Bachelor. She captivated them again earlier this year, when she was named the lead for The Bachelorette's thirteenth season, making her the first black woman to ever star on the show.

Lindsay is smart, engaging, and honest. She's a 32-year-old professional who's as committed to her desire to find love as she is to her career—something many of us (myself included) can relate to. She and I talked about finding time for self-care, making excuses for men, and all the times she felt reluctant to appear on one of the most popular reality shows on TV today. We also traded stories from our Bachelor casting call experiences (yes, I've auditioned, too).

If our conversation made anything clear, it's this: Lindsay is a woman who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to pursue it. And while she's doing that, she's happy to give you a glimpse into her life, because she wants to help you see that you can—and should—have exactly what you want, too.

Let's start from square one—what was your reaction when you first found out you'd been cast on The Bachelorette? Did you ever consider not doing the show?

I was approached a few days after I was dumped by Nick. I didn't believe them when they first asked me to star on the show—I thought they were just being nice and trying to make me feel better. But I realized they were being serious, so we actually started talking about it.

It was actually harder for me to decide if I wanted to move forward as The Bachelorette than it was to decide to be a contestant on The Bachelor. I knew I'd have to ask off work a second time, and I waited until the last minute to talk to my boss about it. But he was really supportive, and everyone else at my firm was, too. That made my decision very easy, but I can't say I would've done it if my job had said no. My career is really important to me. I've worked hard for it. And I don't know if I would've been able to take that risk.

Is there anything you wish you'd known before doing either show?

I'm actually glad I didn't watch The Bachelor or The Bachelorette prior to being on them. I think if I'd watched them before being a contestant, I would've over-analyzed it or tried to be something else—tried to fit into that world. Because I was so green, I was just me, and I think it was really refreshing to the people watching it.

What did it mean to you to be the first black Bachelorette?

Knowing that I was potentially going to be the first black Bachelorette actually held me back from wanting to do it. With the first, there's always so much pressure. And I knew I was going to be new to the audience as a lead for a number of reasons—being over 30, being a career woman, and also being black. It's one thing to be a contestant, but when you're the lead and carrying the show, it's totally different. So I thought, Do I really want to put myself out there like this?

In true lawyerly fashion, I laid out the pros and cons. I realized, You know what, I shouldn't be scared of this. It's an honor to be chosen as the first. Of all the African-American women who've tried out for the show, they chose me, and they chose me for a reason. I could be a positive role model on TV for women my age, younger women, African-American women, and those trying to pursue a career in law or anything else. I could show the struggles I have as a career woman trying to find love. I wanted to be vulnerable in that way, and that carried me on to say, You know what? I'm gonna do it.

On The Bachelorette, you have to make romantic decisions faster than you might in everyday life. How'd you adapt to this timeline?

I used my legal experience and training to help me make quick decisions and figure things out. Don't get me wrong—I was wearing my heart on my sleeve and making emotional decisions. But when I had quick decisions to make or needed to read people, my legal training came into play. As a litigator, I have to analyze what people, like clients and jurors, are saying and how they're saying it, so that really helped me sift through the BS.

There's this Maya Angelou quote: "When people show you who they are, believe them the first time." I've made so many excuses for men. Maybe they're just doing that because of this. Maybe if I help them with this, it'll be different. And it's like, no, believe them when they show you who they are. I got to a point where I stopped trying to make excuses or put my own spin on things to figure them out. I just started taking what men were giving me, and a lot of times it was shit—there's no other way to say it.

What did the shows teach you about what you want from love and life?

Being dumped by Nick on The Bachelor made me realize how much I want love for myself. I knew I wanted it—I've always said I want to be married, have kids, and have a whole family unit. But wasn't until that point that I realized how badly I wanted it.

When it came to doing The Bachelorette, I pushed myself out of my comfort zone. I knew this was what I wanted, so I was going to get out of my head and just go for it. I'm really glad I did, because it paid off. I've learned how much of a hopeless romantic I am, how sensitive I am, and really, how much I love being in love.

Are there any moments you wish hadn't aired on TV?

No! I was pretty pleased with how I was portrayed. I feel like you really got to see me as myself. But toward the end, it was a little harder. I did feel a connection with my final four for different reasons. And I feel like, at some points, there was more of a focus on other relationships than on the relationship I had with Bryan—the person I ended up with. I wish you could've seen a little more of our love story.

How did you find time to prioritize self-care on the shows?

When you're a contestant, you have plenty of me time. So on The Bachelor, I journaled and talked with the other girls. I also woke up early in the morning to work out by myself, reflect, and meditate. When you're the lead, there's no time for that. Every day, you're going on a date, preparing to travel, and doing interviews—there's no time for self-care. And about halfway through the season, it shifts from being physically draining to emotionally draining. As we got toward the end, I made sure to cut out more time for myself. If I had a couple hours, I would write. When I was traveling on planes, I wouldn't fall asleep—I'd actually use the alone time to think and reflect.

What's the best romantic advice you've ever received? The worst?

As far as the best, my mom used to say all the time: "Follow your gut." A lot of times, I feel like women really have this intuition—not just about love, but life in general. I really followed my gut and listened to what I was feeling inside, and that carried me through to the end in making my final decision. Follow your gut. Don't fight it. Whatever you're feeling, tap into that.

The worst advice? I think somebody once said to me, "That's OK—he's just being a man." What does that even mean, you know? That's like, the worst thing anyone could possibly say.

Now that The Bachelorette has wrapped, what's next for you?

Because I've taken such risks in the last year, I feel like the sky is the limit for me. I'm still working, and I want to hold onto my legal career—even if Bryan and I leave Dallas and move somewhere else. I really want to tap back into the things that interested me before the show, like sports, and find ways to get involved there. Of course, a wedding is near. I want to have kids—I want four, but Bryan doesn't want that many. It's really an exciting time. I feel like I have such an amazing platform and an amazing partner I can do all of this with. It's scary but exciting at the same time.

Some Google AdSense Publishers Experience Four Month Hold on Funds

Dec 11, 2008 • 7:55 am | comments (1) by twitter Google+ | Filed Under Google AdSense

A AdSense Help thread has confirmed reports from Google that some (not many) publishers may have had a hold on their account for about four months due to a bug. That means, these publishers were not paid for around four months due to an issue with a specific feature of the site.

As explained by Ashley from Google:

A small number of publishers have experienced this issue, whereby their account is on phone verification hold, but they cannot see the hold in their account. However, please be assured that the issue has been resolved on your account, and a payment for your earnings up to the end of November will be issued to you at the end of this month.

It is nice that Google will be paying out what is due to this publisher, but a four month delay and nothing extra for that?

VIDYAJYOTI – National School Eye Health Programme – launched in Cuttack

Sightsavers 26 December 2014 VIDYAJYOTI

Sightsavers launched its flagship National School Eye Health Programme – VIDYAJYOTI – in Cuttack district today to check and prevent eye diseases and vision impairments among children in the school-going age group. VIDYAJYOTI was launched in association with JPM Rotary Club of Cuttack Eye Hospital and Research Institute that will screen children and initiate appropriate measures for preventing blindness.

The first screening camp was organised in Kendriya Vidyalaya Cuttack on Monday.

The initiative will provide free eye health services to around 3.50 lakh children covering 2,500 schools in the district. It will be implemented by six dedicated refraction teams formed by the Rotary Eye Hospital comprising ophthalmologists, optometrists, vision technicians and health educators.

Besides providing eye care services to students, it will train teachers, local health staff and members of school management committees on various aspects of screening and preventive aspects of eye health. The five-year programme will work closely with Government programmes like National Programme for the Control of Blindness (NPCB), Rashtriya Bal Swaasthya Karyakaram (RBSK) and Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) to create a robust school health system in the district with demonstrative impact on the State.

Children in the age group of 5 to 15 are especially vulnerable to long-term consequences of eye diseases if not detected and treated early.

The social, educational and economic impact of visual impairment developing at this age is an enormous loss of lifetime productivity and increased burden of providing support to the children. It is estimated that 1.4 million children in the world are blind and one third of them live in the developing countries. Major causes of blindness among children vary from region to region. Amongst different eye problems among children, refractive error is the most common.

The VIDYAJYOTI programme is designed to demonstrate best practices in the field of school eye health, CEO of Sightsavers India RN Mohanty said.

State Blindness Control Programme Officer Dr Jeetendra Kumar Das, Collector Nirmal Chandra Mishra, president of JPM Rotary Eye Hospital Debasis Panda and principal of Kendriya Vidyalaya Manas Panigrahi were present.

The Backlog: Totally off-topic tribute edition

No smart-ass commentary, no tongue-in-cheek humor, just a nice thought for the weekend. Tomorrow would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday. Even if you're not a fan of the man or the music, it's hard to deny that the message was a good one.

In case you're wondering if there's a video game connection, Lennon's iconic song "Imagine" is included in Rock Band 3, which is out October 26th. So there you go.

Doug and Aaron are both out of the state this weekend, so the honor of posting this backlog falls upon me. They're off doing some pretty awesome things; meanwhile, I'm nursing my aching shins and bemoaning the imminent fall rains.

My review of F1 2010 went up earlier this week and, though I still contend it's a flawed game due to all the bugs, I powered through three Grands Prix weekends last night

At the Malaysian Grand Prix, it was raining heavily during qualifying. I went out early in the 20-minute session, tried to get my bearings, but having little experience in the wet I was slow — dead-last slow. This is even with a setup dialed in from the awesome setup repository I linked in the review. A second three-lap blast midway through the session got me up to about 17th, and adapting to how the car felt in a downpour versus in the dry, but that's still off from where my team wanted me. With three minutes left, I hit the track and got two laps in — the first put me up to 6th and the second, after time expired in the session, put me on pole position. What a rush. When this game is on, it is all that my inner F1 geek could hope and dream.

The other game I've been getting to grips with this week is NBA 2K11. With the delay of NBA Elite 11 until next year, and the astonishing reviews 2K11 has been garnering, my choice of basketball game was simple. I'm still struggling to get used to the pacing of basketball and how to best attack the game, but all the quick games and career games I've played so far have looked, sounded and played amazingly well. As an avid Portland Trail Blazers fan, playing as my hometown team has never felt this good; Brandon Roy is an inside scoring machine, Greg Oden throws down from the low post with power, LaMarcus Aldridge hits elbow jumpers with's all there. And the AI plays basketball pretty well, too — trying to guard quick Sacramento Kings point guard Tyreke Evans with Andre Miller, I made one bad move and Evans shot through the lane for a dunk. It made me sit back and go, "damn." Not many sports games can do that.

What's this? A Square-Enix handheld RPG I'm playing for more than 5 hours? Doug was right about Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies: It's a very good Dragon Quest-ass Dragon Quest game.

I've played my share of the DQ series over the years. I had the remake of one and two on my Game Boy Color, and Dragon Quest VIII is sitting on my shelf at this moment. However, I've never finished a single entry in the beloved (and multi million-selling) franchise. Try as I might, the games become too boring, too fast. And while "old school" -- a term that's thrown around with ridiculous frequency as time removes us farther from gaming's roots -- sensibilities offer a unique charm and dash of intrigue, a modern-minded RPG fan like myself can't stomach the archaic style of past DQ offerings. Taking 60 hours of grinding to beat the third-to-last boss doesn't prove that a game is "classic" or "amazing," let alone fun.

But Dragon Quest IX isn't archaic, as similar to its predecessors it may be. No, this game plays more like the Blizzard version of Dragon Quest coupled with the subtle humor of a BioWare RPG. The fact that your characters can be equipped with hundreds of wildly different armors and weapons adds an addictive element to the gameplay -- and the bonus is that each item actually appears on your character's model.

For me, it's the sort of gimmick that encourages involvement and dedication; as of this writing I've already put 16 hours into the game over the course of two and a half days (!). As vapid as World of Warcraft-style item hunting is, I can't help but get a lot out of it. Why else would I have purchased Titan Quest, Borderlands, Torchlight and, eventually, DeathSpank over the past year after countless hours of playing both World of Warcraft and Diablo? Because it's what I like; loot acquisition is a simple, perhaps even primal, gameplay concept that fulfills the habits of completionists and collectors like myself.

So kudos to Square-Enix for taking an unexpected, yet completely welcomed, turn with their series. You've certainly gained a fan in me.

So it's not a game in the traditional sense (although some would disagree), but this week I've been pretty focused on the Couch to 5k program. Basically, it's a series of runs over the course of nine weeks that gradually escalate from just a few minutes of running punctuated by walking — something a couch potato could theoretically do — to being able to whip out a 30-minute, five-kilometer run at the drop of a hat.

I was never any good at sports and loathed exercise well into my early 20s, so you can imagine how shocked I was that Couch to 5k actually managed to hook me. But thanks to an extremely useful app and a paralyzing fear of never doing anything useful with my time (I hear that's sometimes referred to as "being a twentysomething") I decided to give it a whirl.

I had some good days and bad days, and I had to make up for lost time when I was out of town for things like PAX or just generally feeling undermotivated, but it was generally not too difficult to get the hang of running. I learned a lot of things the hard way, such as how important stretching is and how ungodly painful shin splints can be, but I'm really glad I've stuck it out this far.

I just completed the first run of the final week tonight, clocking in 3.18 miles (or 5.12 kilometers) in 30 minutes. So at this point it's the home stretch -- I guess I did it! And honestly, it feels pretty damn good to know that I could take on something so unfamiliar like this and succeed at it.

As far as video games go, I've desperately needed to get away from them over the last few days. But I'm hoping to have Comic Jumper reviewed for next week, so watch out for that!

Payment Card Industry has updated the Security Standards for P2PE Systems

PCI ComplianceRecently, the council that controls the data security standard for the payment card industry (PCI DSS) published an approved list of point-to-point encryption (P2PE) systems. With point-to-point encryption technology, organizations are able to reduce the scope of their cardholder data environment, as well as annual PCI DSS assessments.

When organizations implement point-to-point technology, it’s important to focus on building, testing, and deploying solutions that provide high levels of support for PCI DSS compliance. PCI DSS compliance is absolutely necessary for any organization handling customer payment card data. These organizations must pay attention to how that information is held and protected.

During the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council’s annual European community meeting, the list of approved P2PE systems was revealed. With the approved P2PE systems, organizations can simplify their security measures by removing clear-text cardholder data.

Throughout the meeting, 500 global stakeholders were able to provide feedback on the upcoming version 3.0 of the PCI DSS, which will be published on November 7th, 2013. The council also discussed technology initiatives regarding security of mobile payment acceptance.

Those who attended the meeting were given the change to interact with peers, discussing the challenges and lessons learned during presentations. Many attendees also proposed suggestions for PCI Special Interest Group (SIG) projects in the upcoming year.

PCI organizations have the chance to vote for the SIG projects they’d like to see the community pursue in 2014. The voting takes place from November 4th to 15th. The PCI SSC is working towards developing adequate payment security standards that address common challenges today.

In addition, the PCI SSC is continually developing business practices for organizations to embrace new technologies while protecting against evolving threats.

‘I joined St John Ambulance when I was eight years old. At that time training consisted of first aid and nursing. We used to meet in a local hall and regularly took part in county and regional competitions.

My most memorable first aid incident happened when I was about 18 years old and dealt with a fatality at Salisbury fair.

A girl had stood up on a waltzer fairground ride and hit her head on an upright beam. I was first on the scene and had to deal with both the fatality and her friends until further help arrived. Being able to assist others and be of use to my community has driven me on.’
