Obama offers his World Series prediction

WOODBRIDGE, Va. (AP) ? President Barack Obama is offering his prediction for the upcoming World Series.

Obama says during a campaign stop in Virginia that he is "looking forward to a White Sox-Nationals World Series." The president says, "It's going to happen."

The former Illinois senator is a longtime Chicago White Sox baseball fan. The president congratulated supporters in the Virginia suburbs of Washington the day after the Washington Nationals clinched a playoff berth. The White Sox are currently in first place in the American League Central.

Obama spoke at Pfitzner Stadium, home of the minor league Potomac Nationals, a minor league affiliate of the Nationals.

Netgear announces Push2TV WiDi adapter and three new NeoTV units

Today, Netgear is unveiling three more Roku-troubling NeoTV boxes and Push2TV, a wireless display adapter letting you harness WiDi or Miracast to push content from smartphones, laptops or tablets to your TV. The trio of NeoTVs are so similar to the last generation that it's a little hard to tell the difference, except that the new flagship NeoTV MAX now comes with the long-desired addition of DLNA and a custom remote that has navigation buttons on one side and a QWERTY keyboard on the other. All four devices are available from today, the Push2Tv costing $60, while the new NeoTVs are priced at $50, $60 and $70, respectively -- and if you'd like to know more, then we've got some more info down below.

Microsoft permanently patches critical IE hole

3 hrs.

Paul Wagenseil, SecurityNewsDaily , SecurityNewsDaily

Days?after Microsoft learned of a nasty Internet Explorer flaw that malware writers had already begun to exploit, the company pushed out a permanent software patch.

"This security update is rated Critical for Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8, and Internet Explorer 9 on Windows clients and Moderate for Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8, and Internet Explorer 9 on Windows servers," a Microsoft security bulletin published Friday?read.

The flaw left Internet Explorer users vulnerable to drive-by downloads and affected all currently supported versions of Windows.

Windows 8, due to be released to the general public Oct. 26, and its accompanying browser, Internet Explorer 10, are not affected.

Windows users who have automatic updating turned on will get the patch without any effort. For those who don't, Microsoft urges them to deploy Windows Update manually.

Microsoft posted "fix it" workaround software Wednesday that temporarily deactivated the flaw. Friday's permanent patch overrides the "fix it," which does not itself need to be disabled or uninstalled before the patch is installed.

Part 1: 10 Things Non-Fiction Authors Can Do to ... - Web Savvy PR

Connecting With Your Audience

I was speaking with my one of my earliest social media strategy clients the other day. Her name is Melinda Emerson; she is a successful author and speaker, and along with her busy speaking and business consulting schedule, she recently landed a spot blogging for the New York Times http://boss.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/08/how-twitter-changed-my-life/. We were talking about the goals she had sketched out for herself in those early days before her bestselling book ?Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months? came out. The social media strategy I laid out for her, which started with creating her nickname SmallBizLady, turned into a success we could not have imagined. You can do the same?if you learn the skills you need, hone your online message and ?work it like a job.? Here are ten things non-fiction book authors can do before your book comes out.

1) Begin to Build an Online Platform, Before the Book Comes Out

The tips and steps below are some of the basic planks in that platform. Melinda had her book all ready to come out when it was postponed by one year Initially, She was not happy about the delay. No author wants to wait longer to have their book finally published, but as her online social media strategist, I was very happy. I remember her reaction to my statement, ?Melinda, you might not feel it right now, but this is the best thing that could happen to you.? She was not amused. I replied something along the lines of, ?Right now, no one really knows who you are, so why are they going to buy your book over someone else?s?? Let?s get you out there online and start working this social media stuff to get people to know who you are and what you bring to the table. (This also works if you are preparing for your second book to come out as well).

2) Know What Goals you are Trying to Reach

Melinda wanted to sell out her 1st printing of her book within the first year, which we did due to our early planning. First, we positioned her with a mission to ?End Small Business Failure.? Then she started providing good, quality information to small business owners on Twitter. Over time, we expanded to Facebook, LinkedIn & a blog. We worked to build a platform that helped her get more speaking gigs, secure business coaching clients, and land in major media publications. Two years later she even landed a spot writing for a major publication; which eventually led to her New York Times opportunity.

3) Set Up Short-term Goals

If your main or only goal is to make money writing non-fiction books ? that is probably a fantasy. Get clear about what you want your book to do for you. It is harder to do than you think to sell books, and to make money at it. But if your goal of publishing a non-fiction book is to sell books, and then leverage the authority to land media appearances, attract customers to your business, land paid speaking gigs, get paid writing or blogging opportunities, and to help people while you are doing it- those are doable goals. So sit down and scope out your short and longer term goals ? both realistic and?let yourself dream a little. I think she had writing for a big publication in her sites even in the early days.

4) Identify Who Your Ideal Audience Is

Too many people start out in social media without a plan or a strategy. Planning starts with who is most likely to buy your book, your services, bring you in on a speaking gig, or whatever goals your outlined above. There may be a primary ideal client, then a secondary group. Another of my clients is a succession planner ? he basically helps people sell their businesses. He kept using jargon terms in his blog posts and enewsletter, which his fortune 500 clients would understand. I asked one day how many of his clients are mom and pop, family-owned businesses. He said 25% or so. I asked, ?They don?t call it succession planning ? they want to know ?how to sell my business.?? He agreed, so we worked an occasional post or article targeted to this clientele and his sales increased. Put yourself in the mindset of your readers.

5a) Determine Where They Hang Out Online (and Craft Your Branding to Catch Their Eye)

We started Melinda on Twitter first. I knew that it was filled with small business owners of all types ? right in Melinda?s sweet spot. And we are both glad we did, as her branding came out of that first time we went on Twitter. She said, ?Cathy, what am I going to do? There are already two Melinda Emerson usernames out on Twitter.? I replied, don?t worry, we?ll find a username that tells them what you do.? We did a little brainstorming, and I said, ?How about @SmallBizLady?? Melinda said, ?I like it!.? She has said it was one of the best branding decision?s she made. It?s easy to remember, it says what she does and it has a ring to it. A few months later, I suggested starting a Twitter chat called #SmallBizChat (it?s kind of like an online talk show, but using tweets). The rest as they say is history. That chat helped position her as an expert, and gave her access to having other big names and authors on her chat. Melinda also moved on to use LinkedIn and Facebook. but we started with Twitter, because I identified that for her, it would be the easiest way to get her message to reach a broad segment of her audience the fastest.

5b) Don?t Forget to Network Offline, in Person (IRL ? in real life ? as they say) as Well

Attend conferences and mixers that your ideal customers or readers attend. Try and land speaking gigs ?as well. You can also attend and speak at conferences in your industry, this will help build your credibility with your peers. However, attending or speaking where your audience or clients are is key. Do both. Add your Twitter username to your name tag. Make it easy for people to connect with you?wherever they feel most comfortable. Once you have your book, negotiate to see if you can do back of the room sales.

Stay tuned, part two coming in a few days with tips number 6 to 10.

President Obama Visits Late Show, Weighs in on Mitt Romney "47 Percent" Controversy

President Barack Obama stopped by the Late Show With David Letterman last night, and had barely sat down before being asked about the Mitt Romney video.

The secretly-recorded-calling-Obama-backers-entitled-irresponsible-drains-on-society video, which Romney stands by, while acknowledging poor word choice.

Letterman asked Obama for his take on Mitt describing "47 percent of Americans" in this manner, to which he said, "One of the things I learned as president is you represent the entire country ... if you want to be president, you have to work for everyone."

 

President Obama on Letterman

Obama noted that in 2008, 47 percent of America voted for his rival, John McCain.

"This is a big country. And people disagree a lot, but one thing I've never tried to do and I think none of us can do in public office is suggest that because somebody doesn't agree with me that they're victims or they're unpatriotic," he said.

"There are not a lot of people out there who think they're victims. There are not a lot of people who think they're entitled to something."

"We've got some obligations to each other, and there's nothing wrong with us giving each other a helping hand so that that single mom's kid, after all the work she's done ... can afford to go to college, go cure the next disease, go start the next Google."

"I think that's a good investment for America."
