The Arab Ice Hockey Federation was created in late 2008, aimed at progressing the sport of ice hockey in the Middle East and North Africa. It is based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and currently has 6 members.
Following the success of the Arab Cup of Ice Hockey in June 2008, there was seen to be a greater need for the ice hockey playing Arab nations to work together.
With ice hockey now being played in Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon, it's expected that more countries will join the Arab Ice Hockey Association shortly.
Initially the idea of Algerian management Karim Kerbouche and Mustapha Chergui, it soon gained support from the UAE and Moroccan management, along with the newly created Tunisian National Ice Hockey Team.

Juice Robinson has been one of the better surprises to walk away from the NXT brand. Since making his way to New Japan Pro Wrestling, the former CJ Parker has completely reinvigorated his career.
While in NJPW, Robinson has picked up huge victories over the likes of Hirooki Goto and Kenny Omega and has found his way into the hunt for the NJPW United States Championship. Robinson will challenge reigning champion Jay White at the upcoming G1 Special in San Francisco event at the Cow Palace on July 7.
Juice discussed his transition from the WWE to NJPW in a recent media call. Below are some of the highlights, courtesy of Wrestling Inc.
I was just talking to Kevin Owens [about his future goals]. Man, you fast-forward three years and everything turned out how I hoped they could. I was fingers crossed I would land on my feet when I left WWE, and damn, I did, thank goodness. That would've sucked if I didn't.
I knew it would [work out], I just knew in my heart it would. I knew NXT wasn't working out for me and I'd rather die trying than stay there any longer.
As far as the rest of my goals…I'm twenty-nine right now. I think I can wrestle…I know I can wrestle for another ten years barring any injury, any kind of severe injury, but I think I could stay here for another fifteen years and then I could go help the young lions once I get a little older in my forties.
I can come over here every once in awhile and help the new kids come along. And then, who knows? Maybe I'll be a part of the LA Dojo one day in twenty years or longer? New Japan, I wanna work here for the rest of my wrestling career for sure.
Juice Robinson has really found his way in New Japan. He's quickly become one of the most entertaining acts in the company. This is another case that proves the WWE isn't the end all-be all of professional wrestling. It's great to see Juice shining so bright now.

The Disney Wonder is an amazing vessel, complete with four formal dining areas, two pools, four hot tubs, a waterslide, a theater, a movie theater, several lounges, and much more. At any given time, there are character meet-and-greets, Disney trivia, games, tours, and talks going on all over the ship. And always a dance party, where you can find Donald Duck and Minnie Mouse jamming out with a bunch of little kids (and that one adult…which, admittedly, was usually me).
Every morning the TV looped the "Good Morning Disney Wonder" show, which featured the cruise director and assistant cruise director discussing the day's activities. It was a great way to plan your day and ensure you didn't miss the best activities. We also used the Disney Cruise app, which sent us alerts when our shows, excursions, etc. were about to begin. I didn't have much down time in the entire 8 days spent on that ship; there were so many fun things to do, I was constantly running from one activity, show, or meal to the next—boyfriend in tow.
The food. The four formal dining areas each had a unique theme: Tiana's Place, Triton's, Animator's Palate, and Palo.
Tiana's Place, as you may have guessed, had a New Orleans feel. The menu had such things as shrimp and grits, boudin balls, jambalaya, and beignets. Of course I was skeptical of eating my home cuisine thousands of miles outside the state of Louisiana, but I was delightfully surprised. The best part of eating at Tiana's, though, were the shows put on by Princess Tiana herself and the band the Cajun Crooners. The band played all throughout dinner, but when Tiana came out to join them with her trumpet-playing alligator friend Louis, the party really started. One night at Tiana's was "Mardi Gras Night", and the entire wait staff came out in a second line with Tiana and Louis. Then all the guests got up and made a second line.
Triton's was less lively, but had a lovely mural of the little mermaid across the wall and an under-the-sea theme. This was where we enjoyed breakfast and lunch every day—always complete with soups, salads, appetizers, entrees, desserts, and drinks—and always all-you-can-eat. This is also where the ladies of our group took Nick's nieces to the princess tea party, which I enjoyed as much as (if not more than) all the toddlers.
Animator's Palate was a black-and-white restaurant with Disney animations sketched all over the walls, paintbrush columns, and palate-shaped lights. The place became more colorful during the dinnertime shows, when clips from classic Disney movies played on the screens, the lights changed colors, and Fantasia Mickey made an appearance. It was so neat one night—we each had to create and draw our own character upon sitting down to dinner; somehow they scanned our creations and brought them to life on the screens during the show, dancing around in scenes from Snow White and Pinocchio.
Palo is the gourmet Italian, upscale, adults-only restaurant on the top deck of the ship. It's all glass and all window seating, so the view enough is worth paying extra to dine here. Nick and I decided last minute to make a reservation for Sunday brunch. Of course, they were fully booked, but we got a call Sunday morning that they had a spot for us. We got all dressed up and met his parents there at our table for four. The brunch buffet was amazing, with tables full of beautifully-presented desserts, meats, cheeses, fruits, pastries, and (a special treat) Alaskan king crab legs. Back at our table, the waiter brought out at least one plate of everything from the menu. The amount of food we had was ridiculous, and it was all delicious.
The shows. There were three Broadway-style performances throughout the week: The Golden Mickeys, Frozen: A Musical Spectacular, and Enchanted Dreams. Frozen had ventriloquism, award-winning costume design, and some amazing special effects. The other shows featured musical numbers from the classic Disney movies like Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Lion King. I really can't pick a favorite, they were all so good. The Golden Mickeys showed on formal night, so they rolled out the red carpet and had paparazzi snapping pictures as you walked from dinner into the theater. A lady in an elegant formal gown interviewed little kids Joan Rivers style before the show started. The whole thing was really fun and adorable.
The entertainment. There were some great comedy acts on the ship: the magic of Shawn Farquhar, two-time world magic champion; Michael Holly, a juggling comedian; John Charles, AKA the human jukebox, who can play any song you request on the guitar; and Ronn Lucas, one of the world's top ventriloquists, who's previously performed for U.S. presidents and the Queen of England. There was also a naturalist, retired from the Alaska Fish and Game Department, who gave several talks about Alaskan wildlife, glaciers, and bears; Nick and I especially enjoyed his talks.
This is really special—the musical producers of Frozen, Mr. and Mrs. Lopez, were on the ship *ahhh!!* and did a presentation in the theater on our last day at sea. This couple has won Grammys and Oscars, yet they seemed so down-to-earth when sharing their story. They played songs that were cut from the movie, which no one has heard before (except people from previous Disney cruises). They explained the creative process of making the movie, and how the story line changed along the way. To end the show, they asked these Asian twin baby girls to come up on stage and sing Let It Go. Adorned in Anna and Elsa dresses, they sang every single word of that song, joined by the audience. Cue the snow machine and confetti cannons when they hit the last refrain. It was the best!
The views. Although there was always something fun and exciting to do on the ship, I could've been just as happy sitting on the balcony the entire time. The ship cruised through passages along the southeast Alaska coast, so we never lost sight of the rocky, snow-capped mountains. Often, we'd see a huge waterfall running up and down a mountain's side. I saw black fins emerge from the water that could've been orca whales or dolphins. Bald eagles were abundant near our ports-of-call. On glacier day, we saw impressive chunks of ice topped with families of seals.
The scenery alone would have made for an amazing trip, and I always stopped to take it in during those few minutes of down time. More about actual Alaska in my next post!

Those who have tuned into my rants about the homemade cinnamon rolls may have noticed a trend. Yeast. I'm told I'm lucky to have even seen the dough rise on my first try- but I'm still stuck on what I have done to prevent it from really popping up. At this point I have tried/am in the process of 3 "proofing" methods:
-A warm oven and 20 pitiful minutes… Turned out dense and hardened up upon cooling.
-A slightly warm oven for 2.5 hours … Turned out almost dry on the outside but relatively fluffy inside- still not "perfect cinnamon roll" status though (left to right, beginning to end of 2.5 hour period)

Local Agencies Provide Hope, Healing for Mind & Body
It takes a village to raise happy, healthy children.
While there are countless obstacles - from addressing social determinants and cyberbullying to having access to specialty care - Middle Tennessee is fortunate to have numerous resources to help care for body, mind and spirit of the region's youngest residents to give area children the best chance to grow and reach their full potential.
In addition to information on the featured organizations below, the accompanying resource box offers a quick reference of services helping children and teens to share with patients and their families.
Our Kids
Nationally, one in four girls and one in seven boys will experience some form of sexual abuse by age 18, and many cases will never be reported.
In Middle Tennessee, victims of sexual abuse find respite at Our Kids, which provides 24/7 expert medical evaluations and crisis counseling services in response to concerns of child sexual abuse. The team of medical and mental health specialists also works to increase community awareness, conducts research and offers education and training about child sexual abuse.
"Sexual abuse is so different from physical abuse or neglect because the perpetrator doesn't want to injure the child or lose access," said Our Kids Executive Director Sue Fort White, EdD. "The dynamics are really different."
An outpatient clinic of Nashville General Hospital, Our Kids evaluated 876 children during the 2017 fiscal year. The clinic is one of the largest of its kind in the U.S. and serves 47 counties in Middle Tennessee with satellite clinics in Cookeville, Manchester, Lawrenceburg and Clarksville. Staff members also work with the Department of Children's Services (DCS), law enforcement, child advocacy centers, pediatric practices, emergency departments and district attorney offices.
The Our Kids team works hard to disseminate accurate information in the community and to highlight myths related to child sexual abuse, including the notion that "stranger danger" should be the biggest fear for children. In most cases, the perpetrator is known and trusted, leaving parents to deal with tremendous guilt and confusion. Parents also think their child will always report sexual abuse immediately, or that the suspect couldn't be a relative or family friend.
Another common myth of sexual abuse is that it always involves genital injury. In reality, 93 percent of cases prove otherwise. Those numbers were part of the findings by Our Kids in the largest prevalence study of its kind in over a decade. Published last year in The Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology, their study of 1,500 female children validated findings of other studies. The paper is now recommended as required reading by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Our Kids is also setting a gold standard in community awareness. Slated to launch online Sept. 13, the organization's "What if I told you?" campaign seeks to start a national conversation about the epidemic prevalence of child sexual abuse. Website links include how to report child sexual abuse, resources, and mental health supports for adult survivors.
"The theme of the video is to believe and protect the child and embrace the adult because they are courageous," Fort White said. "We want people to know that it's never too late to heal."
More information about services is available at OurKidsCenter.com.
Tennessee Department of Health Children's Special Services
An initiative of the Tennessee Department of Health, the Children's Special Services program provides medical care for children with physical disabilities from birth to 21 years of age. CSS is coordinated through the local health departments in all 95 Tennessee counties and provides resources for medical and nonmedical services.
The program may pay for diagnostic evaluations, hospitalization, rehabilitation, prescriptions, speech and language therapy, hearing aids, medical and surgical treatment, physical and occupational therapy, braces and artificial limbs, and durable medical equipment such as wheelchairs and walkers. CSS does have financial eligibility guidelines that are based on family size and income level at or below 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines set each year.
For more information, go online to TN.gov/health/health-program-areas.
As one of the largest community-based mental health providers in the nation, Centerstone is also a leader in behavioral health services for children and adolescents. The Nashville-based, not-for-profit offers mobile, family and group therapy from their pediatric-focused Dede Wallace campus on White Avenue, while more than 60 master's degree-level therapists are dispersed throughout 300 Tennessee schools.
"Schools are a primary area of concern for us, as that's often where kids are first identified as having challenges," said Beth Hail, regional vice president of Centerstone's central region, which encompasses Davidson, Wilson, Williamson and Rutherford Counties.
Staff members also provide mobile crisis consults to counselors and teachers and work to assist kids struggling with drug addiction and depression. Patients run the socioeconomic gambit, from state custody to TennCare and private pay. The majority of Centerstone's young patients have experienced trauma, and therapists work alongside parents to help them understand their child's struggles. The campus also is among the few to offer therapists specially trained in child-parent psychotherapy for children from birth to age five.
"We use evidence-based practices to work with young children when there's been a disruption in the family or an event that's altered parent-child attachment," Hail said. "We work to restore those relationships, and it's often difficult to find therapists who will work with those very young children and their families."
Centerstone also offers parent/child interaction therapy (PICT), which involves monitoring the playing child through a two-way mirror. During PCIT, parents wear ear buds and are coached by therapists in real time how to correct behavior while strengthening the parent/child relationship.
The team also offers adolescent dialectical behavioral (DBT) group therapy for youth who don't respond well to individual counseling. Long recognized for its effectiveness in adults, DBT has proven tremendously successful for children with boundary issues, difficulty interacting with others, family problems or suicidal tendencies. "These teens often don't' recognize their own mental health issues, but they can help each other and challenge each other and work with a therapist specially trained in adolescence," Hail said.
Additional area services and locations can be found online at Centerstone.org.

[. . .] let us not forget that promotional events worked extremely well for Arundhati Roy, Vikram Seth, Amitav Ghosh and others. But I think the crux of the matter is that while we have developed a fair degree of confidence in matters like IT and other areas (I will not enter into a discussion about how uncritically the West and us Indians have bought into the myth of India booming , India shining, India poised), we have consistently shown a total lack of introspection and self-esteem in the field of literature. And with good reason.
Why should we? The empire might have departed 60 years ago but we do not wish to part with it. We are still entirely under the colonial mind-set. Despite all the dubious talk of post-colonialism, we are happy to be a colony of the US and the UK. The sun still rises and sets for us in the West. We take all our cues from our notion of the West. We know our maths. We know that a book is good only when Western publishers buy it. We also know that a book that gets 500,000 dollars is only half as good as one that gets one million dollars. Why then should we attempt to cultivate our own critical faculties and rigorous standards?

Topic Page: pragmatism
(prăg'mӘtĭzӘm), method of philosophy in which the truth of a proposition is measured by its correspondence with experimental results and by its practical outcome. Thought is considered as simply an instrument for supporting the life aims of the human organism and has no real metaphysical significance. Pragmatism stands opposed to doctrines that hold that truth can be reached through deductive reasoning from a priori grounds and insists on the need for inductive investigation and constant empirical verification of hypotheses. There is constant protest against speculation concerning questions that have no application and no verifiable answers. Pragmatism holds that truth is modified as discoveries are made and is relative to the time and place and purpose of inquiry. In its ethical aspect pragmatism holds that knowledge that contributes to human values is real and that values play as essential a role in the choice of means employed in order to attain an end as they do in the choice of the end itself.
The philosophy was given its name by C. S. Peirce (c.1872), who developed the principles of pragmatic theory as formal doctrine. He was followed by William James, who held that in vital matters of faith the criterion for acceptance was the will to believe, and who was the key figure in promoting the widespread influence of pragmatism during the 1890s and early 1900s. John Dewey in his works developed the instrumentalist aspects of the doctrine. In Europe, F. C. S. Schiller (1864–1937) and others took up the theory. The succeeding generation of pragmatists included C. I. Lewis (1883–1964), whose conceptual pragmatism involves the application of Kantian principles to the investigation of empirical reality. W. V. O. Quine has upheld the validity of some a priori knowledge, pointing out that mathematics greatly facilitates scientific research. Morton White extended Quine's ideas from science to all culture, arguing for a holistic pragmatism in which philosophers study entire systems of belief and synthetic and analytic approaches to truth are not separate. Richard Rorty has argued that theories are ultimately justified by their instrumentality, or the extent to which they enable people to attain their aims. Pragmatism dominated American philosophy from the 1890s to the 1930s and has reemerged as a significant element in contemporary thought.

Hazy IPA
Hazy Golden
Bru-1, Enigma, EXP431
Marris Otter, Munich, Oats, Wheat
Keg and Can
Feb - Mar
Brewed in collaboration with our friends over at Simply Hops, this beer has been loaded with the most recent experimental new hop to hit the UK shores, Bru-1. A hazy IPA, this is big and juicy, with a satisfyingly bitter finish. Pineapple and tropical fruit flavours explode from the glass whilst a grapefruit bitterness finishes the whole beer off. To really let the hops shine, we used a whole load of oats in the brewing of the beer to provide a rounder, softer body for the vibrant hop flavours to work off of.
Bow Bells and Roller IPA are our two other big, hop-forward beers. Whilst Hopper's IPA may not be year round, these two certainly are and will provide the hop-hit you crave!

In an age where brands are becoming more socially aware and engaged, and traditional market norms are blurring the lines with social experiences what can brands do when the two worlds clash? What action should be taken where an unhappy customer has the potential to publicly embarrass a brand / institution?
The immediate thought is, 'concessions', 'just get them to be quiet' and 'do anything to make them happy'. It may work in the short term but does it work in the longer term?
The problem, as I see it, is that this is a reactive attitude to problem resolution. Perhaps a more proactive and open strategy could work more effectively.
Using the example of penalty fees on an everyday transaction banking account – instead of penalty fees every time a consumer overdraws on their account, what would happen if the customer was given the power to use two free fee waivers every 12 months?
Employing this strategy, both the financial institution and the customer know where they stand, and it gives the power to the consumer to make the choice about whether they want to cop the penalty or not. There would almost certainly be a small percentage of consumers who would call up asking for a fee waiver after they've used their two free passes, but the financial institution could quite reasonably respond by reminding them they've already actively chosen to use their two concessions already.
Giving power to consumers is a powerful tool. One reason why many consumers get so angry is due to a lack of power in the relationship between them and the company in question.
This proactive approach could be adapted to telco's, insurance companies, sporting organisations, gyms and many other organisations – and may well foster more loyalty than a reactive concession which only comes in when someone has suffered a bad experience and the both sides know the resolution is a hasty one to temporarily keep someone happy.

Kara Opens Up On Her Time at 'American Idol'
Kara said she'd been introduced to 'Idol' in a disruptive way: "It was like I broke up The Beatles. I think that what was really frustrating for me was that I could never voice who I really was. And they didn't set it up so well." Howard agreed: "They didn't introduce you properly." Kara continued: "When I'd watch the show, I'd be like, 'She is annoying. That person.' Because that person wasn't me." Kara said her rocky relationship with Simon Cowell didn't help: "I thought he was way too hard on me...the guy was the star. I got it." But they got along better as time went on: "He really ran the panel...I learned a lot from that guy. I learned a lot from watching him."

Hi, it's Greenygrey. We travelled over sea and mountain looking for ol' Wolfhol, but alas to no avail; and then when we returned there was another postcard on this blog bearing ol' Wolfhol's distinctive and seemingly impossible to forge aW signature.
Werewolf of Oz Rock Time-Travel Tale
Sorry that our wild werewolf wild goose chase kept us from bringing you your usual quota of your favourite veggie werewolf travels Australia to a Wizard of Oz theme comedy satire epic classic Werewolf of Oz: Fantasy Travel by Google Maps.
After the last episode saw the travellers enter the Kerang-Kerrang time-travel town in the 1980s, and Bonzo leaving the adventure, this episode sees Bonzo return; but only for a short visit, with a warning of terrible danger, leading to a Terminator movie theme, and references ranging from the Battle of Waterloo to Faster Pussycat.
Chapter 82. Terminator Livens Up Kerang-Kerrang
The four of us travelled farther into 1980s Kerang-Kerrang. We missed Bonzo, but knew the journey must continue.
Ale Hail Denim and Leather
The streets were full of people wearing denim and leather. The colourful patches sewn onto the backs of the denim supported a mix of traditional and new bands: Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Rainbow were common names representing the former, while Saxon, Iron Maiden and Def Leppard were the most popular of the latter.
We strolled down Festivals Street, frequenting the Reading Rocks and Monsters of Rock bars; before moseying along Concert Alley and stopping off in the Bandwagon, Queens, Sophia, Marquee and Apollo.
Bonzo Catches Up with us in LA
Then we headed over to the LA district. As afternoon became evening we found ourselves on Sunset Boulevard. We were getting peckish, so headed over to the Rainbow Bar and Grill, where a promising band called Faster Pussycat was playing.
We'd just polished off some veggie raindogs when Bonzo rushed in. It was a nice surprise and fantastic to see him, but it looked like something was amiss.
Bonzo said he'd remembered something from when he fainted that might be relevant to us: when he was unconscious he dreamt of a robot that would Shoot to Thrill trying to kill us. He couldn't remember anything else, so didn't know why or when.
We thanked him for his consideration, and started catching up with all our other news over a few drinks. A couple of hours later it was unfortunately time to say our goodbyes once again, and we all waved Bonzo Back in Black.
Grunge Terminator Shoots Down the Band
We had just finished discussing Bonzo's vision, and were asking each other why we hadn't heard more of Faster Pussycat in rock history, when I noticed a lone grungeman walk in looking like something out of another time. The next thing, he started shooting at the band, and didn't take long to turn it into a House of Pain.
Then he looked around to where we were sitting and took aim at us. Just when I thought we'd met our Waterloo, Dizzy Reed suddenly jumped into the space between us and starting shooting out November Rain from his portable keyboard.
The '90s trash metal classic startled the grungeman, and that gave Dizzy enough time to usher us out the back. We emerged into an alley, and for the moment at least, made good our escape. I had a momentary sense of relief, but it was tempered by the nagging thought: What the hell is going on!
Grunge music emerged out of Washington state in the late 1980s, and went global in the early 1990s.
Trash metal emerged out of LA in the 1980s, mixing metal, punk and glam. It was later lumped in with 'hair metal'.
The Battle of Waterloo in 1815 was Emperor Napoleon's last battle.
Bands, concert halls and festivals explained within the narrative.
House of Pain is a Faster Pussycat song.
November Rain is a Guns N' Roses song.
Dizzy Reed is the Guns N' Roses keyboardist.

On the market for an iPhone? Here's a breakdown of all the currently shipping iPhones from Apple.
Mac Pro Now Available
Type More Than 100 Words Per Minute With the New NinType Keyboard for iOS
Created by app developer Yose Widjaja, NinType's magic comes from its ability to support two-handed swipe-based gestures for spelling out words. Using two thumbs, it's possible to use a combination of taps and swipes to write words and insert punctuation quickly.
The NinType typing experience is significantly different from the standard iOS typing experience, so it does take some time to adjust to the two-handed swipe and tap input. Users are advised to use the keyboard as a standard keyboard to begin with, inserting swipe-based words gradually to adjust to the difference.
NinType has a built-in game-like tutorial that's designed to walk users through all of the app's features, and it is deeply customizable with a top bar that can be arranged to a user's liking, different visual effects, extensive shortcut options, and settings for nearly every aspect of the keyboard. There are a number of handy gestures in NinType, including a swipe on the spacebar to move the cursor, a swipe on the backspace key to quickly delete words, edge slides for inserting punctuation, and flick to autocomplete. NinType does not require users to enable full access.
MacRumors went hands-on with the NinType keyboard to show off how it works and to highlight some key features like themes and the ability to easily insert emoji. NinType also includes features like a built-in calculator, support for multiple languages, a tool for counting words typed per minute, and a "word transformer" mode for stylizing the words that you type.
Like most iOS 8 keyboards, NinType occasionally experiences some hiccups that cause it to fail to show up at times, but this appears to be more of an issue with iOS than with NinType itself. Aside from that, we ran into a few crashing problems during our time testing the keyboard, but the developer has been hard at work pushing updates and resolving any lingering issues.
NinType is available for both the iPhone and the iPad and can be downloaded from the App Store for $4.99. [Direct Link]

Full-Access required?
Bust for me if yes.
Glassed Silver:mac
Why do people freak out over this? It's not a big deal. It's not full access to your nude photos or something.
The bigger crime is 5 bucks for the app. Without a free trial, it's hard to drop 5 bucks on something I might try and not like. Keyboards are tricky and very personal, if it's good, the app is definitely worth the money. Otherwise it's a huge gamble.
if the keyboard doesn't appear when you are trying to type into a textbox, don't blame the developer, that's all on Apple.
Honest question: What purpose do the disco rave lights serve? They said you aren't even looking at the keyboard so what the heck is all that noise even for?
I've tried a few, and I always did love Swype on my old android phones.. But anymore I just want to use the stock iOS keyboard. It works well. No unnecessary frills, no confusion.
I could get into a keyboard that just reads my thoughts but really, I'd hope humanity becomes extinct before we have to put up with that and the glaring potential issues involved with it.
You clearly have to be Asian to wield this sort of power.
Of course I would be banned if I replaced the word Asian with White and said the same thing. But you get upvoted. Stop it.
If you're at a point in your life where 5 bucks is considered a "huge gamble", then you probably shouldn't be buying frivolous keyboards—much less an iPhone. I'm glad this developer is charging for their hard work.
I couldn't agree more. It's $5 and the people most likely to complain are the same ones who probably go to Starbucks and drop even more on something they literally end up p*ssing out.
We live in such an entitled society that (some) people seem to forget there is something called VALUE, ignoring someone's hardwork (and ideas) is a-ok in their books and getting everything for free is the way to go.
Sad really....

Awwww... the poor widdle iOS users are getting all excited about gesture typing. :p How cute.
All the Android users are thinking "welcome to 2010".
Welcome to June 2014, when that kind of comment was beaten to death.
Seriously, we get it. Apple is late to everything.

Cameron's research focuses on the relationship between architecture, representation and subjectivity to engage the city as a critical project. The primary methods of inquiry are close-readings of architectural, political and philosophic texts; and close-readings of urban plans, drawings and projects, toward theoretical design approaches and a reflection on the urban imagination, the transformation of how we think about our relationship to the city and to the world, and how we construct spaces for thought and forms for life.

Think of your house as a "PRODUCT". You need to "package" it attractively to create a demand for it. Here are some fast, inexpensive changes that should make your home stand out amoung similarly-priced houses in your neighborhood. IT BEGINS WITH THE EXTERIOR! Your yard, and the exterior of your house, is the first impression that potential buyers have of your home. YARD. Keep your lawn neat and well trimmed. Consider replanting flowers or creating a flowerbed to enhance the appearance of your yard. If it is the fall, make sure the lawn is raked at all times. And in the Wintertime, clear snow from your driveway and walkways. THE FRONT DOOR. Make sure your door is tightly on its hinges! Furthermore, the door should be neat and clean. Paint it if it needs it. Finally, a holiday ornament on the door, like a wreath, adds a nice touch. Consider adding an inviting "welcome" mat. HOME EXTERIOR. Check for flat-fitting roof shingles, straight lines on gutters, shutters, windows, and siding: solid caulking around roofs and seams. Apply fresh paint where it needs it. Also, make sure the windows are crystal clear; potential buyers often peer through the windows. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. During all showings for potential buyers make sure ALL the lights are on. This makes rooms appear more inviting and spacious. Also, make sure curtains are always up to let as much sunlight in as possible. SMELL. I recommend using a vanilla air freshener that applies directly to your air filter to give your home that "new model home" aroma. REMOVE EXCESS FURNITURE. By removing as much furniture as possible your rooms appear dramatically larger. THE LIVING ROOM. Strive for lived-in, cosy feeling. Discard worn, chipped, frayed furniture. Add lamps if the room is dark. Open curtains. Set out fresh flowers. THE KITCHEN. Many buyers judge the house keeping by the oven and stove. Appliances should be spotless and everything works perfectly. Replace or repair anything that sticks, squeaks or drips. Clear clutter from counter tops. THE MASTER BEDROOM. This is the second most appealing room to a buyer (after the Kitchen). Remove excess furniture to make it appear larger. Show the true size of the closets by removing or packing items that can be stored elsewhere. BATHROOMS. Make sure that bathrooms are always neat and clean. Remove clutter from countertops. Make sure showers are free of scum and tile grout is in good shape. Most buyers pay close attention to this. BASEMENT. If possible, make the basement look like a "living area". Clear out as much clutter as possible. (Consider moving it into storage). If you have an extra sofa, loveseat or coffee table, consider creating a living area. WHEN YOU LET POTENTIAL BUYERS IN THE DOOR Make sure that the exterior and interior are both in order. Appeal to the buyers' senses by putting on some classical or jazz music playing softly on the stereo. As your neighbourhood real estate professional, this report was prepared to help educate you and help maximize the marketability of your house. These ideas are based on my collective experience. I hope you found them to be useful. If there is ever any way that I can be of service to you or anyone you know, please contact me at (416) 720-6454. There is no obligation and I would love to help you.

I waited in line for 2 hours to buy the first iPhone the day it came out. I bought the second iPhone (the iPhone 3G) within 1-2 months of when it came out (AT&T subsidized it)… and I recently bought the iPhone 3GS when I was in San Francisco.
As the story goes, I was leaving Silicon Valley to go to SF when my phone battery died. Rather than buying a charger, I bought a phone at the Flagship Apple store in Union Square. Although it sounds like a major exercise in excess, I must add that I had intended to buy the phone when I got back to MN, and the poor battery performances simply forced me to play my cards sooner.
The phone purchase experience from Apple was exemplary, and I really had no problems. In fact, I'm enamored with Apple for producing such an amazing piece of hardware. Really, I have no beef at all with the phone; just the service provider.
While my phone is a business expense, and therefore write-off-able, I still think that the charges AT&T force you to pay are ridiculous. The service charges for voice time are in line (about $50/month for my plan), and the data isn't horrible ($30 for unlimited usage… about a $50/month savings over the stupid blackberry I used to own), the SMS charges are absolutely out of control. For those of you who don't know the lingo, SMS is simply text messages. From a technical perspective, text messages are simply data points being delivered to your phone… only much more primitive. Basically, SMS messages are transmitted over a data network (which I am already being charged for), and take far less data to transmit than an open web browser connection. So why charge $20/month to use it? For anyone under 40 who actually uses SMS as a part of everyday life, this is a travesty.
The other big issue with AT&T is that it really doesn't work everywhere. In fact, it really works poorly across most of America. As I alluded to above, I was recently in Silicon Valley, which is literally the birthplace of any relevant technology over the past 50 years. It also has horrible coverage from AT&T in many places. New York City is also horrendous. Sure there are a lot of big buildings in NYC, but there are also millions of users. How about you put a tower on every building and actually make your service usable?
Rants aside, I have another rant for you. After my recent purchase at the Apple store in SF, I got a survey invite from AT&T to give them feedback about my new phone. I decided to tell them how I really feel. When they asked my about the 'negative' points of my purchase from Apple, I stated:
The purchase really didn't have any negative points, but the AT&T Policies are ridiculous. Separate plan for SMS? You should be ashamed of yourselves. This is an old school technology, yet you charge separately for a data plan? I think that you are completely out of touch with consumers and I hope your company loses exclusive rights to this superior product so that you can understand the repercussions of being such a horribly out of touch company. Go back to tin cans on a strings, give up your profits/exclusivity with Apple, fire your executives, promote people under 40 who actually in touch with cell phone users, sacrifice a little profit, and then come back in 2-3 years with a service offering that people will resonate to using. That is really the only way you could make any of us happy, aside from upgrading the service you offer to something relevant to 2009 and quit penalizing me for sending SMS messages. Also, get MMS to work you idiots.
In addition to my rants, I answered the following question:
Is there anything else about AT&T, Apple, or the iPhone 3G / 3G S that you would like to tell us?
AT&T should do what Japanese businessmen do and fall on their sword and admit that they are horrible people and have no business blemishing an otherwise perfect product.
Maybe a little harsh, but really, the people at AT&T are bad. Americans should speak their peace, and I have every right to tell a company how bad they are. AT&T has made hundreds of millions of dollars in profit off of the Apple iPhone, yet they have done the bare minimum to accommodate the users of their service. For this reason, I don't feel a single iota of guilt for telling them that they are horribly out of touch with the consumer economy.

For Staunton, Waynesboro and Augusta, influenza deadlier than war in 1918
The fall of 1918 was a tough time for those in Staunton, Waynesboro, and Augusta County. World War I was in its final death throes, but much fighting remained in the Meuse-Argonne campaign before the armistice was signed on Nov. 11, 1918. Many of the local men in the military were heavily involved in that series of battles and local casualties were high.
And then the double whammy hit — an influenza epidemic swept the globe. The end result was devastating. Military action in World War I took 16 million lives, including almost 117,000 Americans. That pales in comparison to the 50 million lives lost to influenza — one fifth of the world's population and the deadliest illness in recorded history.
This disease — sometimes erroneously called Spanish Influenza — was a particularly virulent strain of influenza. It struck fast and often victims were dead within hours. Unlike normal flu, which is hardest on the elderly and the young, this disease took down the healthiest among the population — young adults in the prime of life. More American soldiers died from the flu in WWI than those who died in combat. Most who died had the virus for three or four days, then immediately developed bacterial pneumonia as a result of the influenza virus.
More: Residents in 1922 answer 'What does Staunton need most?'
That statistic was true locally as well — more than half of the local war casualties died from the flu. Overnight the nation had thousands of orphans as young mothers and fathers sickened and died. In one year the average life expectancy in the U.S. plummeted by 12 years!
My grandmother, who grew up on Sherwood Avenue in Staunton, often told me the sad story of the young cadets at Staunton Military Academy who succumbed to the flu. She recalled seeing the cadet corps marching with muffled drums and bearing the coffins of their deceased classmates down to the train station to be shipped home.
A cursory look through the newspapers has not turned up corroboration for my grandmother's story, but it is, nonetheless, symbolic of the fear and sadness that swept through our community in the fall of 1918. A quick scan of the newspapers in October and November tell a tale of woe.
Take the front page of the Oct. 22, 1918, newspaper. One story talks about 14,805 dying in Pennsylvania from the flu, while other front page news included the facts that a sale was postponed due to the quarantine, a notice by Thomas Hogshead that "every glass and spoon at our fountain [is] dipped in solution Chloride of Lime the most powerful disinfectant and germ destroyer known," and reported the influenza death of James Hook of Fordwick.
More: Death on Elliot's Knob: history
The bad news continued on page 2 under the headlines "Hand of Death Rests Heavily on Community." The article then went on to list a number of residents who were struck down by the disease.
An article a week later gave advice and answered questions about the disease. "Coughs and Sneeze Spread Diseases As Dangerous as Poison Gas Shells" warned the article. The news story described the symptoms and progression of the disease:
"The disease now occurring in this country and called 'Spanish Influenza' resembles a very contagious kind of 'cold' accompanied by fever, pains in the head, eyes, ears, back or other parts of the body and a feeling of severe stiffness. In most of the cases the symptoms disappear after three or four days, the
patient then rapidly recovers. Some of the patients, however, develop pneumonia, or inflammation of the ear or meningitis, and many of those cases die."
The young men who had gone off to make the world safe for democracy were among the most vulnerable to the deadly influenza strain. The Oct. 15, 1918, the newspaper listed "Augusta Boys Who Have Died For Old Glory." There were four who died in battle and 11 who had died while training, almost all of whom having succumbed to the flu.
The latest military casualty, noted the article, was 22-year-old William Ray Hevener of New Hope Road who had left for naval training two weeks prior. He died in Norfolk of pneumonia that followed the flu just three days after being confined to his bed. He was buried in Thornrose.
Perhaps the saddest story that I read was of two local brothers, both in the army at different bases, who died of influenza within a week of each other. Guy Olin Beard died first at Camp Lee. A week later, his brother David Lee Beard, who was stationed in Hoboken, New Jersey, passed away, also from the flu. The two brothers were mourned at a double funeral at Bethel Presbyterian Church near Greenville. They were buried in the church cemetery.
"The death of two brothers, both in the army, both victims of the same malady, within less than a week's time, is a sad, strange coincidence and one which has shocked the residents of this community and county who knew the young men," noted the newspaper article. The two soldiers were born and reared near Mint Spring.
Recently today's modern scientists have been able to recreate the 1918 flu virus in order to understand why so many young and healthy people around the world succumbed. What they learned is that the normal strain of flu picked up a strain of bird flu that summer that turned it deadly.
The mutated virus over-stimulated a person's immune system, inflaming the lungs and filling them with fluid, quickly causing pneumonia and death. Ironically, those with the best immune systems — young healthy adults — reacted most to the disease. The healthy immune systems did not know when to "switch off" and the victims' bodies continued to fight to the death.

The exhibit, which will be in the History Gallery until mid-May is free and open to the public. (10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday)

Turn's out the world's busiest airport is also the best—at least according to travel agents. USA Today reports on a survey taken by about 930 travel agents.
Drawing on their own experience, as well as feedback from their customers, the agents named Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport as the best in America. The airport earned high marks for amenities like a mini-spa and specialty shops, as well as for food and Wi-Fi access.
Chicago, America's second busiest airport, also ranked high on the list, due to great options for amenities and world-class restaurants. However, the airport's only good if you've got a lot of time to kill—O'Hare was conversely named America's worst hub for connecting flights.
If you've got to run to your next flight, better hope you're at Charlotte Douglas International Airport, which earned top marks as a connecting hub. If you've got family in tow, Orlando ranked high on the list for those traveling with kids.

Inclusive Growth: Profitable Strategies for Tackling Poverty and Inequality. Robert Kaplan, George Serafeim, January 2018, Paper, "More than a billion people in the developing world remain in extreme poverty and outside the formal economy. Traditional CSR programs have done little to alleviate the situation and rarely produce transformative change. Instead of trying to fix local problems, the authors argue, corporations need to reimagine the regional ecosystems in which they participate. They should search for systemic, multisector opportunities; mobilize complementary partners; and obtain seed and scale-up financing from organizations with a mission to alleviate poverty." Link

Information For TV Viewers Who Receive OPB With An Antenna
Note to viewers in the 97219 zip code: You may need to rescan your TV the week of Nov. 12, 2018. Here's how:
How To Locate A Channel Via Antenna
Please refer to our channel list to find the OPB channel lineup in your community.
How to Rescan Channels
- Your digital TV or converter box knows how to scan; all you need to do is start the process.
- If you have a converter box with an older analog TV, use the box remote (NOT the TV remote). If you have a digital TV, use that remote.
- Use the *Menu* button to search on-screen for a sub-section with a name like "Auto Scan," "Auto Program," "Auto Tuning" or "Channel Scanning." You may find it under a "Setup" heading.
- The specific wording varies among brands. If you have trouble finding the scanning section in the menu, consult your owner's manual. The "Setup" section will usually cover scanning.
- Use the up/down and left/right arrows to move through the on-screen menu. Highlight the scanning function, press "OK" or "Enter" and let the scan proceed. It takes only a few minutes; results will display when the scan is done.
- Once completed, your set should display OPB on the updated channels.
How To Locate A Channel Via Cable
For cable subscribers, contact your cable provider for access to the new PBS KIDS Channel and OPB PLUS in HD.
If you need additional help, please email the OPB Member Center.

Apple (AAPL) iTunes Means To Murder DVDsMay 1, 2008 by Douglas A. McIntyre
Apple (AAPL) plans to release major movie titles on iTunes as the same time they come out on DVD. That is while the DVD business is still around.
According to The Hollywood Reporter "The new arrangement with the studios is expected to involve Fox, Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros., Paramount, Universal, Sony Pictures, Lionsgate and New Line."
The studios are taking a great risk. They now make a large amount of their revenue, and larger amount of their profits, from DVD sales. If the contracts with Apple are not as lucrative on a per title basis, earnings at the movie-makers are likely to fall.
But, Apple may not have given them many options. New song, old tune.

By now, most of my feces and regurgitate besmirched clothes are washed and drying on the line, and I have had a few moments to think about the events of the past week. I was out on Appledore Island banding gull chicks, and taking blood and oral and cloacal swabs. Oh! The glamour!
My knees ache from seven days of crouching or kneeling on granite slabs, and there's a small bit of blood spatter that may not ever come off of my field pants. A small souvenir to remember the birds by.
The work is always hot, grueling and dirty, and when I explain what I am off to do, most people I meet (on the mainland) look at me with brows furrowed and ask, "Why?!" I suppose I understand, and people have been giving such responses to gullers for a long time. I direct your attention to the middle paragraph of this page from Nobel Laureate Niko Tinbergen's The Herring Gull's World:
None of that middle paragraph is wrong; it is chaotic, and it is feces stained, and the birds do attack with substantial force when their chicks are menaced. But what Tinbergen and all of us gullers know is how enthralling the colony is too.
This year, we put together a great team of gull catchers, banders, bleeders and swabbers. They came from Virginia, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Two of them were students at North Shore Community College where I teach biology and animal science. One of them, Nick Lovasco, wrote a truly lovely letter of thanks to the benefactors and mentors who afforded him the opportunity. You can read his letter here.
For Nick, and for just about everyone else who comes out to Appledore to work with the gulls, their perspective is permanently altered. Nearly all begin making plans to come out the following year before we're even finished with this year's work. I catch them gazing out at the ocean, or watching a gull chick peep incessantly at its sleeping parent. They want their pictures taken with the birds; they want leg bands to take home as souvenirs. One student, when allowed to take a blood sample herself, choked back amazed tears after succeeding.
More than the science we do, this is what keeps me going back again and again: watching students' eyes open, literally and figuratively, to the natural machinery all around them, and, for my students at least, to the ecology of their own coastal backyard.
Tinbergen says most things best, about gulls anyway, whether it be about their diets: "Also, the food is never red…it is always half-digested, and whether it be fish, kittens, starfish, earthworms, clams or crabs (to mention some of the more common kinds of food), it is never red." or their calls: "The voice of a Herring Gull is wonderfully melodious. Of course I am biased, but I think there is no finer call than the clear, sturdy, resounding cries of the Herring Gull, carried away by the wind along the wide beach or over the undulating dunes." But the best summation of all, I think, is this:
"I don't regret for a moment that I have spent so many hours of my life in the gullery."
Me neither.

New world map is a more accurate Earth and shows Africa's full size
A new kind of world map (above) has been developed that shows the true size of the continents without distorting their shapes too much.
The world map you are probably familiar with is called the Mercator projection (below), which was developed all the way back in 1569 and greatly distorts the relative areas of land masses. It makes Africa look tiny, and Greenland and Russia appear huge.
There have been numerous attempts to solve this, but there are issues with all of them. For instance, the Robinson projection (final image), with its curved sides, is much better than the …
