The Power of Drupal
Ever know what is Drupal? Ever know Obama? Well I'm sure you know Obama, the President of the United States. Drupal is a content management system(CMS) used to built websites. And guess which CMS did the Obama administration use for their US Presidency campaign. Yup, that's right Drupal.
Why did they use Drupal? Simply because its a very powerful CMS, yet its simple to use and is a very secure platform.
If you think of the size of the Obama website and the fact that Drupal is able to handle such a big, high traffic website, well that is proof of what Drupal can do.
Other high profile sites are also using Drupal. These include:
Fast Company - A very popular business magazine using Drupal.
AOL (America Online Corporate Information Website)
Yahoo Research - Yahoo is a big user of Drupal
NASA - Drupal is Big & powerful enough for SPACE
Jennifer Lopez - Many high profile celebrities use Drupal. Including JL.
Avril Lavigne - Another popular celebrity amongst the teens.
Green Peace - Big environmental & non-profits use Drupal.
End Poverty - Another big charity organisation using Drupal.
Novell - Technology professionals also use Drupal
Fox Searchlight - Big media companies use Drupal.
Lifetime Media - Another big media company using Drupal.
To learn more about Drupal, you can vist Drupal.org
You can download it too instantly, because its FREE. God bless Drupal developers.
Find Out Who Clicks on a Particular Link with Google Analytics?
Suppose I want to add a label of “customers” to any visitor who reaches my shopping cart’s receipt page. I would add an additional line of code to the Google Analytics Tracking Code (GATC) on my receipt page. It would then look something like this:
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www."); document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-XXXXXXX-1"); pageTracker._trackPageview(); pageTracker._setVar(”customers”); } catch(err) {}
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www."); document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-XXXXXXX-1"); pageTracker._trackPageview(); pageTracker._setVar(”customers”); } catch(err) {}
Notice the line in bold that includes _setVar. If you take a look at the code example above, you will see that I used the term “customers,“ the label that I want to appear in the User Defined report.
When a user visits the page he will be identified as a part of the “customers” segment in the User Defined report, allowing you to perform analysis on all visitors who have purchased something from your online store. Neat, huh?
Can I use _setVar when someone clicks on a link instead of visiting a page?
Yes - you can also use the pageTracker._setVar function when someone clicks on an important link on your site, or makes a key selection on an important form that you want visitors to fill out. For example, if you wanted to add a custom label to any visitor who clicks on your “Live Help” applet, you can ask your IT department or webdesigner to add an “onClick” event, and give them the following line of code:
What will this look like in the end?

Addressable printing resolution of 1,200 x 600 dots per inch (dpi) at a full press speed of 400 feet per minute–an industry first for high-volume continuous-feed inkjet production platforms–using the latest generation of HP Thermal Inkjet printheads based on HP Scalable Printing Technology.
Compatibility with a wide range of media types and weights, including uncoated offset stock, newsprint, and treated and coated papers.
Additional information about the productivity and quality advantages offered by the HP Inkjet Web Press are the focus of two new white papers. The white papers, as well as additional details from the open house event at O’Neil Data Systems, are available at http://www.hp.com/go/IHPSopenhouse.

If you know their interest you can direct them to vote on more niche specific social bookmark sites.
You can do up a list like this to delegate your friends:
Friends to vote you up on digg - Alex, Bob, Carl

Cures for Tinnitus for Designers under stress
Clinical trials
Vitamin A
As far back as the 1950's it was positively proven that Vitamin A supplementation had extremely positive results in hearing loss and tinnitus patients.
Sir Edward Mellanby the well known British vitamin and nutrition researcher and also the secretary of the the British Medical Research Council and President of the International Technical Commission of Nutrition showed in animal trials (1935-39), that vitamin A-deficiency can lead to disorders in the nervus acusticus and the inner ear, and that, as a consequence hearing disorders can occur.
These tests were the scientific basis for vitamin A treatment of hearing loss and tinnitus on humans, which lead to extremely positive results.
The first trials with Vitamin A as a treatment for hearing loss and tinnitus were conducted in 1949 by a New York otorhinolaryngologist M.J. Lobel . He treated patients who were suffering with progressive hearing loss and tinnitus with large doses of Vitamin A over a six week period. The patients who responded positively received further treatment during 22 more weeks, or as long as it took to reach the maximum gain in hearing improvement.
The results are particularly noteworthy.
Within six weeks 83% of the hearing loss patients responded positively to the Vitamin A treatments. Conductive as well as perceptive hearing loss was clearly improved.
The tinnitus which normally is associated with hearing loss, was was dramatically reduced and even eliminated in some patients. This reduction came after the second or third week of treatment at best or after two months in the worst case scenario.
After six weeks of using vitamin A according to the schedule as laid out by Dr. Lobel, the following results were achieved
Equally as important as the improvement in hearing is the relief obtained from the tinnitus in some patients. Of the patients who suffered with tinnitus, 74% reported a reduction or elimination of the tinnitus noises in addition to a marked improvement.
Dr. Lobel was able to report better results in the treatment of tinnitus than in hearing impairment but he had conclusively established that Vitamin A deficiency plays a major role in hearing loss and tinnitus and that supplementation with Vitamin A has positive a dramatic results for tinnitus sufferers.
The 2 Step Tinnitus and Immune Boost Formula contains 20mg Beta Carotene which naturally produces the required daily amount of Vitamin A in the body. Any excess is simply flushed away.
Source: http://www.tinnituspage.org/clinical1.htm
Ginkgo Biloba
Clinical studies have shown that only pharmaceutical grade Ginkgo Biloba extract as found in 2 Step Tinnitus & Immune Booster Formula is effective in the treatment of tinnitus.
Ginkgo Biloba has been a mainstay of traditional Chinese medicine for more than 5000 years and is a vital ingredient of 2 Step Tinnitus & Immune Booster Formula.
The scientific community believes that the clinical benefits of this ancient herb result from a group of bioflavonoids called Ginkgo flavonglycosides and from a group of lactone terpenes called Ginkoglides which include Ginkgolide A, Ginkolide B, Ginkgolide C and Bilobalide.
Click here for details of clinical trials that prove the effectiveness of Gingko biloba in the treatment of tinnitus.
Zinc (Amino Acid Chelate)
Experts believe that up to 31% percent of the patients they see that are suffering from severe tinnitus are zinc-deficient. Zinc supplementation has been proven to reduce tinnitus levels.
Zinc is indeed often referred to as a "super mineral" and many clinical studies have shown Zinc to be an extremely powerful antioxidant and immune stimulant.
Zinc deficient individuals may also experince loss of appetite, hair loss, diminished taste or smell or skin problems.
Taken at the recommended serving size of two capsules twice a day, the 2 Step Tinnitus and Immune Booster formula provides 66% of the recommended daily allowance of this vitally important trace element.
Click here for details of clinical trials that prove the effectiveness of Zinc in the treatment of tinnitus.
Magnesium
Low levels of magnesium combined with noise exposure eventually deplete the inner ear cells' energy stores, leading to exhaustion, damage and death of the inner ear cells.
When the noise level gets too high the tiny hairs on these inner ear cells fuse or disappear, and they and their supporting cells eventually disintegrate, along with the nerve fibers going to these cells.
A recent study showed that supplemental intake of magnesium has a protective effect against long-term noise exposure.
Click here for details of clinical trials conducted amongst Israeli soldiers that proves the benefits of oral supplementation of magnesium in tinnitus sufferers.
Vitamin B12
Apart from being absolutely vital to the correct functioning of your body, Vitamin B12 supplementation plays a major role in reducing or elimination tinnitus.
Researchers from the Institute for Noise Hazards Research and Evoked Potentials Laboratory at Chaim-Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan and from Tel Aviv University, both in Israel, looked at a group of 385 people with tinnitus and found that upto 47 percent of tinnitus sufferers were vitamin B12 deficient.
When this vitamin B12 deficiency was corrected, the tinnitus was reduced significantly by an average of 39% and completely cured in 27% of cases.
The researchers concluded "Vitamin B12, for that reason, may be recommended as a treatment that is effective for the treatment of inner ear hearing loss and tinnitus.
Click here to read the complete text of their findings.
Vitamin C and Vitamin E
Tinnitus is often caused by blocked or reduced blood flow to the ears, which can happen in two ways. The tiny artery leading to the inner ear can get clogged with cholesterol, causing a kind of stroke in the ear. Loud noises can send this artery into spasm, reducing blood supply to the cochlea.
In either case, an interrupted blood supply can lead to hearing problems and tinnitus. Antioxidants work by helping to prevent oxygen-caused damage to cell membranes.
Antioxidants also help keep arteries open and free of plaque buildup.
The effectiveness of Vitamin E is now proven in clinical trials to restore sensorineural (sudden) hearing loss, a major cause of tinnitus.
That is why antioxidant nutrients like Vitamin C and Vitamin E are so important to tinnitus sufferers.
