Picture: Lugnagun from the east. Superb Blessington Lake Views Short Summary created by simon3, march-fixer 23 Jun 2013 Though not a summit to write home about, it still provides a wonderful grandstand view south out over Blessington Lakes and west to the Hill of Allen. Until recently (2013) pine trees obscure these lovely views from the summit. Now that this area of the plantation has been harvested there is a 360 degree panorama available. Lugnagun is an ideal launching pad for an attack on Sorrel Hill. From Lugnagun summit there is a nice linear ditch feature running south-east and then a relatively good track all the way to the summit of Sorrel Hill. On the way to Sorrel Hill you may wish to visit the remains of a Megalithic Tomb at O02172 11919 A, just inside the forest edge.It is best to approach from the Blessington direction and head across the bridge towards Ballyknockan along the Lake Drive until N99270 12400 B where you take a steep left-hand turn up Carrig. Continue up this road to the forest entrance at O00274 12314 C where there is parking for about four cars (you may get more parking at the very end of this road). The forest track zig-zags up until you pick up a forest track at O 01123 12327 D. Follow this rough track to close to the summit. Summit in this case is a subjective guess!

A dash of colour on a dull day by wicklore 22 Dec 2014 Not being able to be at Newgrange (having never applied for a ticket in my life) I decided to celebrate the winter solstice by watching the sun rise from a Wicklow hill. I planned to welcome the sun and speak encouraging words to it and let it know that from here on in it got easier for the next 6 months until the summer solstice in 2015.Timeanddate.com told me sunrise would be at 8:38am. I got up early and made my way to the car park between Black and Sorrel Hills in the Wicklow Mountains. A slow start meant that sunrise found me high on Sorrel Hill, and not Lugnagun as planned. At 8:38am the glorious first rays of the sun peeping over the eastern Wicklow hills were completely denied to me by a persistent and typical blanket of cloud that soaked me and prevented me seeing more than 50 feet in any direction. Instead of warm and friendly sunlight I was surrounded by a dull, grey cloud that sneaked beneath my layers and chilled me. There was no moment of sunrise – just a slight lightening of the dreary enveloping cloud. I trudged on nonetheless as I expected something interesting to happen as so often does on my forays into the hills.The route up Sorrel is a well-worn scar of exposed black bog which is wet and slippy and ever expanding by the trample of endless feet. On the road at the start of the track someone has spray painted arrows and information for the participants of some 'pro race' or other, pointing the hordes up Sorrell Hill. But that was another time and this early in the morning only the cold wind made any sound to accompany my heavy breathing and sucking footsteps. The summit carn of jumbled rock and stones loomed through the cloud and after a brief, chilly stop I descended westwards to find the ridge to Lugnagun. According to the date on a summit comment I had previously written, it was 6 years since I had visited Lugnagun. I was quite taken aback by this – it felt like only recently that I had clambered up the short slope from the road below. 6 years? As I walked along my reverie was broken by something white on the ground. On closer inspection it turned out to be a small Christmas teddy bear- the type that hangs on a Christmas tree. Then I found another one. And another one. They were scattered around the heather. There was tinsel too, and baubles. Lots of baubles. Perplexed I looked around and there it was! A Christmas tree! Someone had decorated a tree just where the forest stopped and deforestation started near the summit. But the deforestation meant that a steady wind blew through the area and had stripped most of the decorations off the tree. They were scattered about the nearby hillside. I rescued 4 teddy bears and 4 Santas in total and decided to give them a safe and permanent home back in Dublin. They now occupy a warm and wind-free place high up on an indoor tree! Something interesting usually happens when I get out on the hills, and today was no different!

However, there has been one very significant change to this area since all previous comments and it does have a significant affect on the view, access and the summit! The forest to the south and south west of the summit area has been harvested. A number of the trees that have not been cleared lie across the fence protruding into field and making a dance along the summit ridge as Dessie has done, a lot more cumbersome! The harvesting has also meant that the approach to the summit through the forestry is now clear, with no obstructions along the route. Finally, you now have 360 degree views from summit, looking over the battered remains of the forestry you can see the beautiful views to the south. (OK, maybe there is one tenuous parallel between this hill and Easter 1916).I did Lugnagun very recently as part of a circuit that included Sorrell and the god forsaken Carrigleitrim. This meant that I was approaching Lugnagun from the forestry on the north east of Sorrell and heading for the 427M spot height in between the two summits. From here, as already mentioned, there is a clear and boggy track to Lugnagun. I did jump along the different humps of ground on the summit to make pretty sure that I had indeed stood on the highest point. From here I decided to follow the track on to the edge of the forest where I saw there was a cairn marked on the osi map. The cairn is the type that I have commonly found in this area, overgrown and unworthy of examination in it's own right, I could however see why it was located in this area, as it does provide probably the best view of any spot on this hill.From here I retraced my steps to the stile near the summit and headed into the deforested area, as already mentioned by darrenf you will soon pick up a forest track at O 01123 12327 D, turn left and follow it to a gate on the edge of the forestry at O 02472 11578 E, from here it is straightforward farmers tracks down through the field to join the road at O 03012 11152 F. For me it was just under 2km on this quiet road back to the car to complete my 14k walk for the day.

Picture: Do these sticks mark the high point of Lugnagun? wicklore on Lugnagun, 2008 by wicklore 14 Jul 2008 I just wanted to bag this hill as a part of a hill-bagging frenzy on Sunday. I found my way to O 018 125 G and parked in one of the many small cut-outs designed to allow cars to pass on this narrow road. I was feeling unsure about setting off uphill across farmland so I waved down a passing man in a tractor. He said that he didn't see a problem as long as I didn't damage fences or block the lane. He pointed out that he didn't own those fields. I crossed a number of fences on the way up and they are well maintained with none of the usual damage or easy crossing points. These hills are small but tough hauls. When I reached the forestry at the top and turned right to cross another fence, someone had thoughtfully insulated the barbed wire with cloth and padding. As with csd and Kaybee I had to guess the summit. I chose what I considered to be the highest point (by several millimetres) on the earth bank alonside the forest. My photo shows the view towards Sorrell Hill with my sticks marking the imagined 'summit'. I agree with csd that Lugnagun could be easily incorporated into a Sorrell Hill walk. Or else you could just spend the afternoon with a theodolite finding the elusive high point!

Views over the reservoir will stay wit you the whole way. From this angle the outline of Sorrel Hill looks more impressive. The track will lead you right accross the shoulder to Lugnagun. The forest will be on your left hand side for most of this ridge and provides excellent shelter from the cutting wind. The top itself is elusive. There are no cairns, mounds, or markers of any shape. I reckon my photo below was taken in much the same location as wicklores and I would have to agree with him that this is the most probable location of the summit. As you can see from the photo there is now a stile over the forest fence at this location which after 70-80m drops you onto the main forestery tracks indicated on sheet 56. It should be noted that on numerous occassions along these forest trackes I encountered large fallen trees blocking the track. In most cases you can push your way through the fallen trees or skirt around. Following this track will eventually take you back to the road and from here its a straightforward slog back to the carpark. Total distance 8.6km over 1hr 50 min.

Pulling through the gears under wide-open throttle is an awe inspiring, adrenaline releasing experience for just about every performance-loving guy, or gal. However, drivers and vehicles alike have limited capabilities thanks to the technology transferring the drivetrain power all the way down to the ground, known as the transmission. From automatics to manuals, and even the paddle-shifted hybrid boxes, the standard rowing equipment has been vastly altered as technology advances. Hell, four-speeds are almost extinct. Each year more efficient transmission platforms are introduced. Following suit this year, the 2014 Corvette Stingray has once again extended the bar, or the gears for that matter, making seven-speeds the new standard 'Vette platform. The technologically advanced tranny by Tremec, dubbed the TR6070, will easily accommodate GM's new 6.2-liter small-block LT1, boasting 460 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque in its most potent form.
The successful partnership between Tremec and GM is evident in the products produced and implemented in past vehicle lineups. The additional seventh gear brings along some added bonuses, but is it completely worth the extra shift? Why not just use a six-speed transmission, like the successful and strong TR6060 found in the C6 Z06? Well, it appears that GM has decided to incorporate a new seven-speed for a number of reasons, just as many other automakers have. For instance, the new C7 Corvette will benefit from increased gas millage, while still maintaining a competitive zero-to-sixty time of 3.8 seconds (Z51 Package). Thanks to perfect ratios for acceleration and a seventh gear for cruising, the 'Vette can still do a quarter-mile in a quick twelve seconds flat while knocking down over 26 miles per gallon. With gas prices rising and never looking back, added miles between fill-ups is a welcomed benefit, especially when speaking of a high-performance sports car. However, simply getting better gas mileage isn't convincing enough. The TR6060 was a capable transmission. What makes the TR6070 better than the TR6060?
When compared to the TR6060, the TR6070 has improved on a few components. For starters, the TR6070 synchronizers feature "hybrid" friction elements, for increased capacity, and faster synchronization time. In order to achieve an improved shift performance over the previous transmission, speed gears and shift collars have altered, asymmetrical "advanced clutching teeth." The new TR6070 is only 42-millimeters longer than the TR6060, and weighs only 4-kilograms more, thanks to enhanced gear cross sections and hollow shaft technologies.
The new TR6070 is following in the footsteps of the TR6060, found in a few General Motors' applications, like the C6 Z06. The TR6070 really does have the same DNA as the TR6060, if you will, coming from the same family bloodlines, and the same machinery. Both are aluminum cased, and considering the TR6060 is good for at least 600 pound-feet of torque, and the TR6070 has to be right there too. The new TR6070 still has the same electronic reverse inhibitor, output speed sensor, 1-4 "skip shift" solenoid, a reverse lamp switch, and a transmission temperature sensor. With that being said, instead of completely throwing away what was learned from the efficient TR6060, it looks like GM has simply expanded on the successes.
The gear ratio setup in the TR6070 C7 follows the TR6060 in the C6 Z06, but with an additional seventh-gear (see ratio chart). The triple overdrive tranny has close ratios and the final gear will help the new Stingray exceed the previous generation in fuel efficiency. The gearing changes slightly in the Z51 performance package C7 Stingray, having the same final drive, but slightly different ratios. The automatic version of the C7 will (again) have a six-speed paddle-shift Hydra-Matic 6L80, just for comparison sake, and the final drive ratio will be 2.56 (and 2.73 for the Z51 package).
The new Stingray shifting experience offers other great features for the driver too. For starters, the new seven-speed will be enjoyable and entertaining for the new owner to navigate, thanks to the integrated auto-blip technology. The TR6070 has an added gear position sensor, assisting in the new shift feature – rev-matching has never been easier. Whether on the upshift or downshift, the computer-assisted program will perfectly and smoothly rev-match the selected gear, making changes nearly seamless. Thankfully, the driver-assist can be switched off with the buttons on the steering wheel, for the true enthusiast, still looking to accomplish an equally revved, heel-toe gear transfer. The lightning fast gear changes are made possible by the dual-mass flywheel, coupled with the dual disc clutch, resulting in a solid shift quality and feel through a lower inertia.
Since the transmission has already been picked for the upcoming Corvette, why did Chevrolet stop at seven gears, instead of eight? Herein lies the debate. One would only image how much time and money went into the development of the Tremec TR6070. Speaking from the monetary perspective, increasing the components, gears, and other necessary hardware involved with the transmission almost always has to increase the cost of owning one. Sure, you could have the Ferrari of speed shifting and gear changing, but get ready to pay an all-out fortune for the setup. With that being said, it appears that GM and Tremec have provided a great platform for the newest 'Vette, thankfully so, leaving it at a far more affordable starting price than similar performing cars. The TR6060 is still in production on the fifth-gen Camaro SS and the second-gen Cadillac CTS-V, and it may be a while (if at all) until this new tranny trickles down to other vehicles. So for now, it is an exclusive on the 2014 Corvette Stingray, on sale in the third quarter of 2013.

Actor Hiten Tejwani has participated in dance reality shows like Nach Baliye and Kabhi Kabhii Pyaar Kabhi Kabhii Yaar, but is not comfortable with the idea of entering Bigg Boss house.
Bigg Boss, currently in its seventh season, is a celebrity reality show that sees participants locked inside a house for over 90 days and their changing equations with one another for survival.
"I don't think I can sit in the house for long. Staying for months in the house will be difficult for me. Hats off to all the contestants. People tell me to participate, but I think I'll come out soon. I'll probably request them to leave me. I will not be a part of Bigg Boss ever," Hiten told IANS.
He is currently seen in TV show Pavitra Rishta and Savdhaan India.
He also has two movie assignments Tere Aane Se and It's Entertainment in hand.

Wildcats all alone at the top
Norwich - While winning the Eastern Connecticut Conference tournament the last two seasons, Norwich Free Academy hasn't won an ECC Large Division girls' basketball title during that time, something of which the Wildcats are cognizant.
"We just practice playing hard," NFA sophomore Cebria Outlow said of the Wildcats' mentality heading into Friday night's game against ECC Large opponent Ledyard, who was also unbeaten in the division entering the game.
"We practice playing our hardest, don't let up. Our enthusiasm was just real good tonight."
Outlow finished with 18 points, 10 rebounds and six steals for NFA (10-1, 5-0) as it raced to a 17-point lead at halftime and defeated Ledyard 53-41. Ledyard (8-2, 3-1), last year's Medium Division champion, is in its first season in the ECC Large.
The coaches' assessments of how their teams began the game were polar opposites.
"We played exceptionally well in the first half," NFA coach Bill Scarlata said. "We pressured the guards. We didn't make it easy for them to see inside. And we had good positioning from our posts inside. They almost had to make a perfect pass to get it in there."
"The first minute we looked good," Ledyard coach Adam Baber said. "Then we went missed layup, missed mid-range, foul and we hung our heads. After that we just started playing timid."
Ledyard was down 21 points in the third quarter, with 6-foot-4 center Hannah Hutchins in foul trouble, when the Colonels went on a run. They outscored NFA 21-7 over the next 10-plus minutes, getting five straight points from Michelle Klinikowski, who first split a double-team then converted a three-point play to pull within 43-36 with 3 minutes, 45 seconds remaining.
NFA scored the next six points, however, to put the margin back in a more comfortable range.
Alyssa Velles added 14 points and eight rebounds for NFA, hitting a long-range 3-pointer at the buzzer to mark the end of the first half, pushing the Wildcats' lead to 32-15. Olivia Lane had eight points.
Klinikowski had 14 points and eight rebounds to lead Ledyard. Olivia DelGrosso had eight points, Hutchins seven points and nine rebounds and Ari Fustini six steals and seven assists.
Hutchins fouled out with 5:36 to go, soon followed by NFA's Olivia Ouellet and Lane.
Ledyard, though, finished 16-for-28 from the free throw line, unable to take advantage.
Outlow, meanwhile, showed off the improvements she's made in her game from a year ago when she a freshman with raw talent.
At 5-foot-10, Outlow - the sister of NFA football star Marcus Outlow, who received a Division I scholarship to play for Boston College - led the Wildcats in rebounding, as well as hitting a 3-pointer in the second quarter, making her a difficult matchup for the Ledyard defense.
"I worked on my game a lot," Outlow said. "I worked out with my brother, I played summer ball, fall league. My brother has an amazing influence on my attitude, just the way I carry myself."
Outlow said the Wildcats were "ecstatic" to start the game.
Scarlata said he'd like to find a way his team can play like that for 32 minutes, noting that Ledyard's comeback will give him fodder to make his team better in the long run.
He said in no way does this make NFA the favorite to win the ECC.
"We're still the underdogs," Scarlata said. "New London's very good, this team (Ledyard) is very good. There's a long way to go. We've still got East Lyme on the road, still got Ledyard on the road; we already had (East Lyme's Jenna) Schumacher go off on us for 22 in the first half.
"We have to improve. We played hard tonight, I just thought we got a little tired. It's a fun group, though."

Sunday, August 10, 2008
The San Francisco Chronicle wrote an excellent article on You2Gov today. It appears on Page G-4 of the Sunday edition.
Here is an excerpt:
"Now every American has the chance to one-up Paris Hilton," said Alan Silberberg, CEO of You2Gov.com, which just announced a contest for the best amateur political ads for Barack Obama and John McCain. The winner for each candidate gets a $1,000 prize, but even more valuable for the true believers would be the exposure on You2Gov – and the possibility that a commercial might go viral in the way of the devastatingly powerful and mysteriously sourced "Hillary 1984" Web-sensation video that evoked a famous Apple commercial from the 1984 Super Bowl. YouTube is stocked with videos for and against candidates. "Obama Girl" Amber Lee Ettinger seized her 15 minutes of fame even before her preferred candidate was being castigated as a too-cool celebrity."

Subscribe To Jay Baruchel Confirms Goon Sequel Is In The Works Updates
I've already subscribed
Grab your "official" stuffed Angus doll and get ready for this news, hockey fans! A sequel to Jay Baruchel and Evan Goldberg's Goon is in the works. Word of the follow-up comes a little more than a year after the Michael Dowse-directed film made its official debut at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall, though it didn't arrive in theaters until early 2012.
Goon starred Seann William Scott as Doug Glatt, a dimwitted but well-meaning bar bouncer whose hard head and powerful punch manages to earn him a spot on a minor league hockey team. Rounding out the cast of the original film was Alison Pill, who played Eva, Doug's foul-mouthed but adorable love interest, Liev Schreiber as Ross "The Boss" Rhea, Doug's opposition, Marc-Andre Grondin as Laflamme, one of Doug's teammates, and Baruchel, who played Doug's best friend Pat.
PlaybackOnline posted the news, stating that a script was in the works for a Goon sequel. Jay Baruchel retweeted the article and followed it up with some clarification:
Chabot is credited as an associate producer on the first film. Baruchel says that Goldberg will be involved as a producer (and that they're all going to work their asses off to make the movie as awesome as possible. He then posted a series of Tweets to give fans an idea of what they have in mind:
Please know this: GOON is pretty close to sacred for all of us involved and we would only be entertaining the idea of continuing the saga if we were all equally convinced that Doug, Laflamme, Stevesy, the Russians, Rolie, Ogilvy Belchy and Eva were only getting started. We will give them and you guys the epic, violent, heartfelt awesomeness that is not just deserved but required. HIGH. LAND. ERS.
He then went on to confirm that Michael Dowse will return to direct.
Personally, Goon was one of my favorite films this year, and while I can see the argument for it not needing a sequel, I can also see the first film as being an origin story of sorts, with Doug Glatt only just beginning to find his purpose and start his ascent to becoming a legendary minor league hockey enforcer. That mentioned ascent, which might include a few more lost teeth and broken bones, and maybe one or two mean guys aiming to take Doug down for good, could make for another exciting story if that's what they have in mind. So, I'm optimistic. High. Land. Ers!
If you haven't seen it yet, Goon is available streaming on Netflix.

Alaska's oldest licensed winery isn't old enough to drink, but it's just the right age to serve.
Alaskan Wilderness Wines, based on Shearwater Way in Kodiak, is turning 13 this year and proprietors Steve and Lisa Thomsen couldn't be happier.
"Wine, it gets better with age," Steve said.
Homemade fruit wine has a long tradition in Alaska and the state has had a licensing regulation for commercial wineries since at least 1993, but when the Thomsens began producing wine in 1999, they were the first in Alaska.
Since then, they have been at the forefront of legislative efforts to expand the business, promoting legislation to allow wine through the mail and to allow dry communities to open wineries.
Alaskan Wilderness has also picked up more than a few national prizes for its wine. The most notable came in 2010, when the company won a gold medal at the Indy International Wine Competition for its wild blueberry wine. The competition is the largest in the United States, and "coming out with a gold there is a really big deal," Steve said.
Alaskan Wilderness remains the only winery in the state to have won an award from the Indy competition.
There are seven other licensed wineries or meaderies in the state: two in homer, three in Anchorage, and one each in Kenai and Wasilla. Though some have grown bigger than Alaskan Wilderness Wines, the Thomsens seem pleased with their success to date.
"It's just been one of my dreams," Steve said.
Steve grew up in Port Lions, and Lisa was born and raised there. The two intended to use the winery as a home-owned business they could operate in Port Lions, but they ran into opposition from residents.
They moved to Kodiak and after a few months of hard work threw open their doors.
Their wines are made with local ingredients — salmonberries, blueberries, fireweed and other Alaska-grown products. It takes about 18 months to complete a batch, Steve said.
Through the Internet, Alaskan Wilderness sells wine to 16 states. Steve said he works about 10 hours per week in the winery business, balancing it with part-time jobs that pay the bills. The winery is a self-supporting business, but Thomsen said he'd like to expand once he retires.
"I've been thinking about doing it full-time," said.

(For those of you who are big into the Edwardian drama, Downton Abbey, here's one of BTG's most popular posts I think you'll really like. P.S., January 4th is when the next season begins).
Aviation pioneer and big game safari leader, Denys Finch Hatton was the quintessential Edwardian gentleman living in the romanticized era of large hats, garden parties and African safaris that occurred between Queen Victoria's death and World War I.
Finch-Hatton is best remembered by his portrayal in Isak Dinesen's book, Out of Africa, and by his connection with Beryl Markham, the first woman to fly east to west across the Atlantic Ocean. An aristocrat (his father was the 13th earl of Winchilsea) and educated at all the right schools (Eton and Brasenose College, Oxford) Finch-Hatton moved to British East Africa at the age of 24 and began indulging his love of big game hunting.
Later on, he would parley this experience into acting as a professional guide for wealthy big game hunters.
Yet safaris weren't the only notable adventures to be had. Aviation was finally starting to come into its own after WWI and by 1929, it was estimated that out of every 100 airplanes owned in Great Britain, the majority of them were DeHavilland Gypsy Moths.
Finch-Hatton's Gypsy Moth came in handy not only for scouting out potential trips for his clients but for also seeing the African landscape in a completely new way.
And then tragedy struck.
On May 14, 1931, Finch Hatton took off from Voi airport (outside of Nairobi) but never made it to his destination. The plane unexpectedly stalled, plunged to the ground and burst into flames. His body was later recovered for burial in his beloved Ngong Hills at a site marked with an obelisk and a simple brass plaque marker.
In April, 2009, Sabine Ludwig journeyed to visit both his grave and Karen Blixen's house in Nairobi, Kenya
"After traveling fourteen hours on the night train from Mombasa, we arrived in Nairobi the next morning at a beautiful train station that seemed as though it had been frozen in time since the early 1900s.
Nairobi is supposed to be the most dangerous city in Africa since the fighting started in January, and houses are now equipped with at least two dogs, a security service and high electrical fences. However, Nairobi city center was a pleasant place to visit and the local people all very helpful. Of course we visited the house where Karen Blixen lived from 1914 to 1931. It's a beautiful museum located in the Nairobi suburbs.
During our visit, we decided to take a taxi up into the Ngong Hills to look for the grave of Denys George Finch-Hatton. Unfortunately, the Ngong Hills become dangerous after night fall and we left the Karen Blixen museum later than planned.
The poor taxi driver.
Six miles of badly rutted dirt roads and one sunset later, we arrived at the obelisk where we managed to shoot a few photos before turning around for our long bone-rattling drive back to our guesthouse home, content with having seen this special part of Kenyan history."

The good news is the Spartans return eight starters on offense. The bad news is the offense scored only 165 points last season, the lowest-scoring total since 1970. Back then, they only played 11 games. Mike MacIntyre is the new coach, replacing Dick Tomey, and the former Duke assistant plans to toughen up the team with a run-first mentality. He won't get any help from the schedule in turning around last season's 2-10 finish. San Jose State opens with road games at Alabama and Wisconsin. In Week 4, the team travels to Utah.
As a run-up to the start of the season, the Wiz will display one poster each day until our supply is exhausted. Last year, the site displayed 69 posters.
Then we turn it over to readers, who will vote on the poster of the year. In the meantime, send your team's poster schedule to jayzuma (at) gmail.com. Thanks to Michael!

It took an app, of course, to get me to do it. God forbid I use cursive and a book, even if its a moleskine book, to note the pieces of my life for which I am grateful. It took an app and a challenge to mark up to 1000 items for which I am thankful (I'm at 236 FTR) because I didn't believe in it, not really, that gratitude journals were worth the effort, the minuscule effort, to lift up my eyes, take note and *make* note of the this and thats which make my life, well, make it also wonderful in the midst of less-than-wonderful.
What we focus on grows, it's said, and I'm not sure that's true. It defies my logic (or perhaps signifies my lack of imagination?) to believe my thoughts, my shambling thoughts, have much direct influence on my outer world. But what I have become sure is true is this: As I increasingly orient towards the things that are good in my life – that which is true, that which is quality, that which brings life, that which brings contentment, that which brings delight, that which endures – this new app-enabled-praxis is generative of a gentle, permeating easiness with life, even the less than wonderful parts.
What is that worth?

It's not funny. It's why I picked that example.
What he was going for and what he got are two different things. Despite what you may have learned in high school, works of art aren't about messages or themes or any such rubbish.

It is very strange to want so much what cannot be achieved in life. The high jumper knows, at the instant after performance, how high he has been; his achievement can be measured both immediately and with precision. But for those of us attempting dialogue with the great dead, it isn't a matter of waiting: the judgment we wait for is made by the unborn; we can never, in our lifetimes, know it.
For over a hundred years the philosophy of art has been subject to the tyranny of a usurper who came to power in the chaos which followed in the wake of romanticism.

It's not about privacy, it's about trust. This is what the social networks keep getting wrong. It's about trust that works on a micro scale and balances on a macro scale. Sure, my privacy is important, but it's the trust that is carelessly discarded that kills relationships.
Can I trust you with my information? The minute you automatically select a trust option that is not in my best interest, I begin to question your integrity. Now I append "and for how long?" Regardless of corporate rationalizations and machinations, the user/participant/player's personal self-interest remains uppermost.
If you choose to default it to agree with your marketing plan, you've lost me. Because that turns our relationship into a prisoner's dilemma protocol. I start our relationship attempting to be friends, but if you defect, it becomes tit for tat. And it seems invariably, that one defection eventually leads to another. Each seemingly inconsequential default selection you make in your best interest finds my micro level of trust further eroded, until there's no macro level left to balance anything out. And then I no longer have a reason to integrate you into my life. Somewhat unsurprisingly, it's seeming more and more like online social networks are a commodity. And that means it's a buyer's market.
Like a precog, I can hear the new communication paradigms being formed in the heads of intrepid early/mid/late stage funding founding partners and established C-level executives right now, "We're establishing a new and vital communication system. And we'll be worth billions, maybe even trillions. Everyone will have to use this social network or risk being left behind. We call the shots. We invent the reality."
This thinking assumes that my ability to connect with my friends—my friends whom I trust—is entirely impeded. Au contraire. So-called old technology still manages that just fine. Phones still make and receive calls. Text messages still arrive promptly. Email still gets delivered. Even mail still arrives at my doorstep 6 days out of the week.
Yes, eventually all data will be lost. It has a lifecycle akin to my own. The need for permanence arises from fear—fear of irrelevance, of inconsequence. But the reality insurgents are already at the door. They want to talk about the new growth opportunities opening up at MySpace.

Man threatens Lufthansa crew with razor blade
BERLIN (AP) — Police say a Lufthansa plane was diverted after a passenger being deported from Germany threatened the cabin crew with a broken razor blade.
Police spokesman Harald Lindacher said the 28-year-old man from Kosovo became unruly shortly after the plane took off from Munich on a flight to Budapest.
Lindacher said the man was being deported to Hungary, where he had applied for asylum before entering Germany illegally.
He said the pilot turned the plane around and returned to Munich airport where the other 76 passengers left the aircraft as police negotiated with the man, and arrested him without incident.
One flight attendant was slightly injured in the incident while others were shocked.
It was not immediately clear how the man smuggled the razor blade onto the plane.

A Nicholson woman was charged with simple battery after a dispute over how to cook hamburgers at a Hampton Creek Road, Commerce, residence, reportedly turned physical last week.
Shela Sharlyne Upadhyay, 37, was arrested for allegedly attacking the mother of her son's pregnant girlfriend at the victim's house. According to a Jackson County Sheriff's Office incident report, a responding deputy took statements from an 18-year-old woman, her mother (the victim), the victim's daughter's boyfriend (and father of her unborn child) and the accused (Upadhyay).
Upadhyay alleged that the victim threw a glass of Coke at her son during the dispute.
The boyfriend told the deputy "there had been a lot of tension since (the victim's daughter) became pregnant."

Lloyd's Register: LRQA Finland [ Change ]
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) normally reviews standards every five years to ensure that they are relevant to changing market demands. ISO 14001:2015 was published in September 2015.
Annex SL (the new high level structure and common text for all new and revised ISO standards) is the single biggest change to the ISO 14001:2015 document. Annex SL is driving the incorporation of the EMS into the strategic thinking of the organisation and increased responsibilities on the leadership of the organisation in relation to the EMS.
Other topics that are new to ISO 14001 include: a] organisational context (clause 4), b] risk based approach (clauses 6 and 10), c] scope and applicability (clauses 4.3 and 1), d] documented information (clause 7.5), and e] life cycle perspective and control of outsourcing (clause 8).
Amongst the areas of the standard that have been revised or now contain more specific information, organisations should pay attention to a] increased emphasis on top management engagement with ISO 14001 (clause 5), b] policy (clause 5.2), c] communication (clause 7.4), d] documented information (clause 7.5), e] performance and evaluation (clause 9), and f] management review (clause 9).
ISO 14001:2015 will be published on 15 September 2015. From this point, organisations will have three years from publication to successfully complete transition to the new standard, so they can choose to transition at any point within this period.
Some may choose their next certification cycle, although many will want to be 'among the first' given the increased flexibility and value that ISO 14001:2015 will deliver, along with the bonus of a clear commitment to best practice being demonstrated to their interested parties.
Our range of ISO 14001:2015 services includes gap analysis, training, including in-house management briefings and transition planning and facilitation workshops, and assessment, all of which are designed to make your transition to the new standard as seamless as possible. LRQA's services are tailored to your organisation, your people and your systems, providing you with a better understanding of how these relate to your future business performance.
