Chromebooks, Windows tablets overtake MacBooks in US commercial sales
Chromebooks surged ahead in 2013 to become a major player in US commercial computer sales, according to new NPD data. Between January and November of this year, some 14.4 million desktops, laptops, and tablets were sold. Of these about 9.6 percent were Chromebooks; in 2012, by contrast, the platform represented just 0.2 percent of sales. Companies are presumably choosing Chromebooks because of their laptop-style features and their cost, which can be as little as $199, cheaper even than many low-end tablets.

The gains helped Chromebooks trounce MacBooks -- which slipped from 2.6 to 1.8 percent year-over-year -- as well as Android tablets, even though they leapt ahead from 4.2 to 8.7 percent. Windows tablets are also beyond MacBooks, having risen from 0.8 percent to 2.2.

Windows notebooks remained in control of the commercial market, despite having fallen from 42.9 percent to 34.1 percent. The iPad was the dominant tablet, but in ceding some share to Android and Windows, shrank from 17.1 percent to 15.8.

In terms of individual companies, HP was the leading commercial supplier, with a 30.4 percent marketshare -- albeit down from 36.4 percent in 2012. Lenovo dipped from 23.6 to 23.3 percent, while Apple declined from 17.9 to 16.1. Samsung, previously marginal at 1.7 percent, rose dramatically to take a 10 percent share.

i work in retail.... i have seen 15+ returned in the last week. my store sold like 75 in december. we have about a 35% return rate on chrome books. we sold 250+ macs with about 7% return rate. i would love to know where they get their numbers.
Yea like that's a fair comparison of product sales. Chromebook is a cheap internet terminal that is totally useless if not connected to the internet. And even when connected the limitations are endless. You can't even compare these toys to real laptops like the Macbook or Macbook Pro. And even if combined they did out sell Apple's Macbook line they probably lost money compared to Apple which made money. The lack of facts and basing this story only on big numbers is laughable at best. This ongoing B.S. trying to paint Apple in a bad light is pure FUD at best.
People that I know have no idea what Chromebook CAN'T do. All they see is ..... oh. cheap laptop.
You get what you pay for.
And it seems there is a direct relationship between price and how long it serves you too.
Chromebooks are the new Netbooks. Wipe ChromeOS and install Ubuntu. Affordable and gets the job done.
"commercial channel" is businesses, schools, government and other organizations. This is NOT general consumer sales.
A bunch of these folks are going to have a rude awakening when they discover the unit is completely useless when they're out of range of a WiFi connection.
I'm a little skeptical of these numbers. I'm sure the Chromebooks are doing well at that price point ... though I think consumers ARE seriously under-educated about their limitations ... (but hey, they'll learn). Those Android and Windows tablet numbers, at the very least though, are based on nothing. No manufacturer releases actual end-user sales figures except Apple, so their conclusions are drawn from "shipment" data, which we already know is not an accurate measure of actual sales.
Hey wrenchy! Good to read you here, got your Christmas card - and left some good wishes of my own that I would like to extend into the new year just around the corner... May you witness the conversion of as many iNatics as you can into mature Droid users (and hopefully Ubuntu Phone soon...)! Your loving sock puppet Arne!
Do you think ChromeOS just "shuts down" when you don't have network connectivity?
Does your iPhone turn off when you are outside of 3G/4G coverage? LOL...

poo mine
to "poo mine" was originally the equivilant to dumpster diving.
the current definition of poo mining is to go into abandoned houses, usually ones slated for demolition but not always, and scrounge through the contents left behind by the previous tenants for usable or sellable goods.
in the lower mainland of bc the homes are also stripped of any pipes and wires that can be sold as scr-p.
a majority of poo miners are doing so to fuel addictions to speed.
i moved out of my house and while loading the last bunch of stuff into the truck, the poo miners were already waiting to go in.

Ethical and Fair Use of Technology Some people in society challenge the boundaries of fair use, ethics, and courteousness, due to the lack of the existence of a socially accepted, clear code of etiquette in the use of technological tools. TED expects that, in the classroom and field sites, students will use technology in appropriate ways.
Ethical Use of Technology Examples of Violations Except in emergencies, use of cell phones (including text messaging), PDA's, hand-held computing devices, instant messenger, wireless Internet connections, and other communication technologies shall not permitted in the classroom.

The preserve offers exciting opportunities to explore all year round, like nature photography excursions and geocaching, but during Christmas St. James Farm becomes especially festive!
Often pegged as the "slow season" in real estate, winter may be an optimal time for you to enter the housing market or sell your home and buy again. See what mortgage rates, home prices, homebuyer traffic and home inventory are doing to shape the winter housing market.
Christmas is a time to celebrate family traditions. These customs we share with our loved ones remind us of what's important, and they allow us to reflect on our past while looking hopefully to the future. This year, start a new tradition of your own with your family while you observe and learn about the traditions of other cultures around the world by visiting the Museum of Science and Industry's Christmas Around the World exhibit!

Paleo Shrimp Etouffee
I had crawfish etouffee once when I was in New Orleans, and it's a dish I've always remembered and wanted to recreate. I was reminded of this while flipping through a Bon Appetit recently; I found a recipe that seemed easy enough for a weeknight, not to mention totally workable for a paleo diet.
As suggested, I subbed shrimp in for the harder-to-find crawfish. This recipe doesn't involve using the crustacean shells to flavor the soup, but still has a lot of authentic flavor. I served it over roasted cauliflower rice, as I couldn't envision eating etouffee without it.
This is definitely a dish that will clear your sinuses. The heat will obviously vary based on your choice of seasoning; I had some hand-mixed Cajun seafood spice blend from a charity dinner we attended. It obviously packed a punch!
Paleo Shrimp Etouffee
adapted from Bon Appetit
2 tbs. olive oil
2 large onions, minced
1 tbs. minced garlic
1 tbs. fresh chopped thyme
1 tbs. coconut or almond flour
1 cup organic chicken broth
1 tbs. Cajun seasoning
1 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. hot sauce
1 lb. chopped shrimp
1/4 cup chopped scallions
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; add onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until onions start to become translucent (about 8-10 minutes).
Add thyme flour, stir and cook for one minute more. Stir in broth, Cajun seasoning, paprika and hot sauce. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly. Stir in shrimp and bring to a gentle simmer. Lower heat, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in scallions. Serve over roasted cauliflower rice.

Large granary bap with Emmental cheese and salad; packet of Walkers crisps; small pot of fresh fruit salad; bottle of mixed fruit juice drink with added vitamins
According to Juliette Kellow, state registered dietician and associate editor of Slimming magazine, such a meal would have given Alistair 1,075 calories, of which 12 per cent came from protein, 38 per cent from carbohydrates and 38 per cent from fat, of which 19 per cent are from saturates.
"Intakes of both total fat and saturates are on the high side, with most of the fat in this meal being provided by the butter, cheese and crisps," says Juliette. "To keep healthy, most people should aim to have less than one-third of their calories from fat and one-tenth from saturates. Having the bap without butter would bring fat intakes much closer to these healthy eating guidelines."
She added that the meal did contain a good amount of fruit and vegetables - we should be aiming to have five servings of these foods every day. "The good intake of fruit and vegetables, together with the granary roll, also contributed significantly to the excellent fibre content of this meal. Healthy eating guidelines recommend that we should have on average 18g of fibre each day, and this meal alone provided 11g.
"The vitamin C intake of this lunch is also extremely good, mainly due to the fruit juice and fresh fruit salad.
"The meal is rich in calcium, one of the main minerals needed to keep bones healthy and strong. Most of the calcium was provided by the Emmental cheese [which] ... together with the butter also contributed to the good amounts of vitamin A in the meal. Emmental cheese is slightly lower in fat than some hard cheeses ... and so is a good choice if you're aiming to cut down on the amount of fat you have in your diet".Reuse content

More than a hundred hutments were burnt down to ashes in a massive fire that erupted at a slum cluster behind a government hospital in north Delhi on Friday morning, Delhi Fire Service (DFS) officials said.
No casualties were reported.
The blaze was reported from a slum cluster located behind the GB Pant hospital on Mata Sundari Road around 9:15 am. At least 30 fire tenders that were pressed into service struggled for two hours to control the blaze.
"The cause of the fire is yet to be ascertained. While between 100 and 150 hutments are suspected to have been destroyed, fortunately, no casualties were reported," said a senior DFS official.
According to police, several teams were rushed to the area, which houses several small scrapyards and hutments, constructed predominantly of plastic-based material, to assist their counterparts from the DFS.
DFS officials suspect that a small fire, made to burn garbage at a location inside the slum cluster, could have been the reason behind the fire. But investigations to ascertain the precise trigger were still under way.
"Given its proximity to two government hospitals — the Lok Nayak and GB Pant — we rushed 30 tenders to the spot as a precautionary measure. More than five dozen officials had to work till 11:30 to bring the blaze under control and finally quell it," the official said.

A young dentistry student who has an ambition to practice in regional areas when fully qualified is the recipient of the 2017 NSW Regional Dentistry Scholarship.
Casey Hogben of Korora near Coffs Harbour has been named as the successful applicant for the scholarship which is sponsored for the eighth successive year by the Nationals Senator for New South Wales John Williams and is administered by the National Rural Health Alliance.
Since 2010 Senator Williams has provided $4,800 annually to a commencing dentistry student to assist in their first year studies.
Councils in the Richmond electorate are being invited to apply for a share of the $360 million Bridges Renewal funding programme to have ageing bridges repaired.
The Commonwealth Government's Bridges Renewal programme has opened a third round of funding where the government will meet up to half the cost of the repair according to the Nationals Duty Senator for Richmond John Williams.
He said whilst Councils can nominate bridges that need upgrading, local residents should also contact their local council with suggestions.
State, territory and local governments are eligible to apply for up to 50 percent of project costs to a maximum of $5 million.
The Coalition Government has launched a comprehensive review to boost outcomes for regional, rural and remote students not just at school, but also as they go on to further study, training and employment.
The review will hear stories and feedback about regional and rural education from across the country and Nationals Duty Senator for Hunter John Williams says he hopes educators, students, families, employers and the local community will have their say.
Senator Williams said location shouldn't be a liability, and this review delivers on the Nationals commitment to tackle the unique challenges people face in areas like Muswellbrook, Singleton, Denman, Cessnock and Broke and it will come up with solutions to better support students in school and into pathways beyond school.
A Senate inquiry is the perfect opportunity for people in the Singleton, Muswellbrook, Cessnock and Lake Macquarie areas and all towns in the Hunter electorate to lobby for the relocation of a Commonwealth agency to their area.
The Nationals Senator for NSW John Williams said the Senate Finance and Public Administration References Committee will be holding an inquiry into the operation, effectiveness and consequences of relocating corporate Commonwealth entities, as well as the economic, environmental and capability implications.

So you've wandered into a haunted town, where the darkest horrors of the beyond lurk around every corner, and you have to have a change of pants on hand constantly. Yes, it's terrifying, the epitome of fear. Slowly, when the coast is clear, you cut through the thick fog and find yourself in front of a large billboard. You begin to read. "Welcome to sunny..." Wait... Why the hell do they call it that!? Why is it that some of the scariest places on Earth have such innocent names? Deathville, USA applies mostly to Towns With Dark Secrets (and is largely a subversion of this trope) or generally any location that has a relatively misleading name when compared to the horrors that go on there. Of course, it doesn't always have to be NormanRockwellville but something that belies the nature of the town.
- In [1], your deepest fears literally come alive in a town that is virtually devoid of sane life. If it hadn't been for it's introduction in the long running horror series, the name Silent Hill would paint pictures of a quiet, sleepy, small town, without any tentacle monsters or sexy nurses.
- Sandford, the small village that serves as the setting for Hot Fuzz has a name that perfectly fits it's countryside feeling, despite the fact that the citizens of said town systematically kill anyone who threatens the sanctity of it's peaceful existence.
- The A Nightmare on Elm Street films all take place in the innocent-sounding town of Springwood, haunted by the evil spirit of the child-killing Freddy.
- Sunnydale, CA, the setting of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, is located over a Hellmouth - a place where the barriers between dimensions are weak - thus attracting horrors of every shape and size to it. Death is pretty common when there are vampires, demons and other horrors lurking around every dark alleyway.
- Bright Falls from the Video Game Alan Wake is a small, peaceful backwoods town that hides an ancient monster.
- NightVale from Welcome to Night Vale is a weird little town full of strange and terrifying things that either kills its residence, drives them mad or something worse, including the Sheriff's secret police, librarians, and the Glow-Cloud. All hail the Glow-Cloud!
Hello, Unknown Troper. You'll need to get known to lend a hand here.
Community Feedback Replies: 41
I find it odd that this trope is about scary towns with happy or innocuous names and yet it subverts/averts the trope by being called Deathville. I want it to be called something like Bad Things Are Always Happening In Sunnyville.
The Hellmouth, portal to all things evil and nasty, sits under the lovely town of Sunnydale,CA. (This is Buffy The Vampire Slayer, if anyone doesn't know.) And, yeah, Deathville sounds either like a)all towns that are "evil'; or, b)evil towns with evil names (Silent Hill, 'Salem'sLot, etc.) Oh, and I know 'Salem's Lot is Jerusalem's Lot, and thus, shouldn't sound evil, but, c'mon, it reallly does. OOOH- Derry and Castle Rock, both from the Stephen King oeuvre.
We could name the trope "Sunnydale". Most Triumphant Example
Currently this is covered by Super Fun Happy Thing Of Doom, but it might be splittable.
Jaws is set in the fictional beachside resort of Amity. Amity means friendship or cordiality.
@foxley. I'm hoping to split it on the grounds of it being centered more on towns and cities.
Bright Falls from Alan Wake comes to mind... idyllic little backwoods-town with a fun-filled local festival and a 'recharge-center' for burned-out artists. And an Eldritch Abomination sleeping fitfully under the ever-so-idyllic and picturesque crater-lake.
Thanks for your suggestions. I'll make sure to update it and try and gain some more attention before creating it.
Happytown Isn't So Happy Happytown? More Like Doomytown!
I second Sunnydale.
What's this tropes relationship to Names To Run Away From Really Fast?
^It would be a subversion, although that trope is more about people's names, not places.
It seems like Fluffy The Terrible, just applied to places.
I like Welcome to Sunny Doomville, when I'm not up to my neck in school and other activities, I'll try to update it a little.
related to Super Fun Happy Thing Of Doom, an inversion of I Dont Like The Sound Of That Place
I dunno, Silent Hill sounds like a graveyard to me. Terrible name for a town. I second "Welcome to Sunny Doomville" and the seperation from Fluffy the Terrible, unless the town in question happens to be a Genius Loci... at which point it could go either way.
Except "Doomville" is not this. Welcome To Sunnyville And Your Doom? Come To Happytown And Die? Pleasantville Is A Bad Place? I think I have a problem with the "Doomville" name. It's just the exact opposite of the trope.
Nthing the "this trope should have a name that isn't the opposite of what it means."
X Files, but I don't remember the names. Do we have the opposite, actually?
^^Like that title. ^Um...I kind of feel like we do have the opposite, but I can't think of what it is, so I could be wrong.
Oh, and the page image should be one of those "welcome to..." signs, with the population number striked through and corrected.
Zombieland. Nuff said.
^^ Like this poster◊ from The Crazies?
^^Zombieland doesn't take place in one town, nor is it one town being affected. It takes place in multiple states, and it's the entire world. Thus, not an example.
For the Record I still think the title needs a more ironic name
Hinamizawa from Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. IIRC (my kanji-reading skills are terrible; forgive me) it means something along the lines of "swamp of dolls and hope."
beauful cheery town of death?
The longer this gets, the more and more I am liking 'Sunnydale' as the name.
How does 'Welcome to Sunnydale' jive with everyone?
Here's an example that gives a good page quote:
Sarah: How are you liking Paradise?John: You know, they should've called this town 'Ironic'.Sarah: 'Ironic, Ohio'? Has a ring to it.
- In I Am Number Four, John moves to a place called Paradise. Lest to say, it is not paradisal, actually harbouring a lot of danger — as well as being back woods Ohio to begin with.
Subtrope of Ironic Name.
- Not a town, but in Toy Story 3 the toys go to a daycare called Sunnyside, which turns out to be a a brutal dictatorship ruled by Lotso the bear. Toys are subjected to rough treatment by toddlers who don't know how to play with them properly and any defiant toys get imprisoned in cubbies, forced to stay the night in the sandbox, interrogated, brainwashed, or thrown into the daycare's dumpster to go to the landfill.
Sunnydale and Welcome To Sunnydale both are nonindicative if you don't know the reference. If the title has to have "Sunnydale" in it, it should be something like Dont Go To Sunnydale or Sunnydale Will Kill You to imply that the happy sounding town is in fact dangerous.
Maybe something like Not So Happyville?
^^ The ironic nature doesn't need lampshading for this trope to work. At least the current draft doesn't mention it. That said, I have complains about the example towns Sandford, Springwood and Night Vale in OP. They don't suggest an overly joyful setting.
When witty fails you can always fall back on clear and concise. Innocuously Named Death Town or Ironically Named Death Town. Also, Example As Thesis should be cleaned up.
I think Sandford works; remembering that it's English and so place names aren't arbitrary, it evokes the idea of a cute village.
^To me, Sandford sounds like a happy village by the sea, but then I know nothing about it.

Many camels believe that when the Star shines down special things, that are always nice, may happen and surprise them. The ancient camels called these amazing things miracles. Young Campi Camel believes in miracles, but some of his friends don

Starring Carroll Shelby and Tim Brown, the Woodrow Wilson 80th Anniversary DVD
A Friend of Unfair Park who attended Woodrow Wilson High School way back when sends word that the school's 80th anniversary celebration, which we chronicled at the end of April, is now a DVD two-fer selling here for the low, low price of $25. Far as my Hillcrest High School-graduating father's concerned, anything featuring an extended interview with Carroll Shelby's worth at least twice that, even if it does come from Woodrow.

Vancouver City Council needs to turn down the political rhetoric, and turn up the results
With the November 19th election only a few weeks away, we thought it might be worth looking back at a truncated version of our 1st Annual Civic Report Card. It was released in October 2009 and covers a lot of ground! Hope you enjoy it!
Every local columnist and media outlet covering the city beat will soon be giving you their views on the first year of Vision Vancouver's government. Our marketing department located on the 27th floor of CityCaucus Tower thought it would be smart if we were the first out of the gate.
Over the past month we surveyed numerous CityCaucus.com staffers – from our CFO, our Vice-President of Business Development, our media monitors, researchers and all the way down to Filipé our parking lot attendant, to get their views on how civic leaders and public service staff across Canada are doing.
We are pleased to provide our readers with the 1st Annual Civic Council Report Card. This is a comprehesive review of the work of Mayor Gregor Robertson and his team, their policies and initiatives, and the performance of other council members, select staff and media, as well as other Canadian city mayors.
We are encouraging our readers to weigh in and give their own rating and critique ours. Now, here is CityCaucus.com's Report Card, beginning our grades for Vancouver city council in several different categories.
Vision Vancouver Council: On the Issues
Openness and Transparency: D
When it came to the introduction of the controversial HEAT shelters, most decisions were made in the backrooms. Local residents were ridiculed by some elected officials for voicing concerns over increased public disorder in their back lanes and parks. Vision also used a backroom process to develop their new "Green City" plan which was presented to Vancouver residents as a fait accompli. Requests to access information at City Hall by CityCaucus.com have been met with countless delays, and exorbitant fees. When we did receive information via the FOI process, most of the material was heavily censored.
Additional Comments: With only one member of the opposition, Vision should realize they can't run City Hall with an iron fist and should allow a few voices of dissent. Facilitating freedom of information requests would be a good first start.
Fiscal Accountability: D+
The first decision of the new Vision Vancouver council was to hold a lavish $85,000 inaugural bash with friends and insiders. This was followed by their second decision to fire the former City Manager Judy Rogers and pay her over half a million dollars in severance. They also decided to take on the full financial risk to complete the Olympic Village project as well as forge ahead with the construction of social housing units valued at $800,000 per unit. When they weren't spending $850,000 on lavish renovations to the City Hall chamber and foyer, Vision was purchasing blocks of tickets to attend numerous Olympic Games events. The City Manager should be credited for trying to reign in some spending, but most of her efforts to date have been demonstrated as being nothing more than smoke and mirrors.
Additional Comments: The Vancouver Services Review was a good first step at reducing city spending, but more needs to be done to control overall discretionary expenditures.
Environmental Stewardship: C-
Despite their well-meaning policy direction to build the world's "greenest" city, to date most of the work has resulted in an elaborate public relations exercise. Symbolic gestures like their backyard chicken policy and a costly community garden stranded on City Hall's front lawn only made Vancouver more skeptical about council's direction on this file. The mayor's greenest city advisory group met only in secret and provided no record of their work. The final "plan" rolled out by the Mayor looked like an elaborate press release with holes large enough to drive a diesel truck through. Instead of reducing carbon, Vancouver seems on course for getting an Oscar for best actor in a green role.
Additional Comments: Being green, means acting green. You can gain a letter grade by immediately moving to use the power of zoning to drive your green agenda. People need to change more than their lightbulbs, they also need to change their lifestyle.
Open Source City: B
This will impress techies and data junkies more than anyone else, but the city has taken the right step in the direction of making their data more widely available for third parties to access. Some cynics suggest that it is the most elaborate voter mapping program launched by a civic party, to the advantage of the incumbents. The reality is that anyone with the knowledge and resources could put the data to use, regardless of partisan stripes.
Non-Partisanship: D
Both the NPA and Vision Vancouver made the reduction of political rhetoric and partisanship a campaign issue. Vision, with its large council majority, instead of being less partisan conduct themselves like a spoilt child when it comes to defending their dominance in city council chambers. If not impugning the previous council directly, the Mayor's office devotes itself to smearing opponents either directly or through their supporters.
Mayor Gregor Robertson gets a pass
Grade: C+
If not stirring any controversy is the only measure of his leadership at City Hall, then Gregor Robertson would be an off-the-charts success. If Robertson had only been judged by his one biggest political gamble - the closure of a lane on Burrard Bridge - he would also be deemed a huge success. If were only so. The Mayor's critics accuse him of living in a "bubble" and being a "flake," however, those definitions are too simplistic to have any real meaning. Robertson's refusal to meet with Suzanne Anton for even 5 minutes demonstrates a petty side to him which few people see on the nightly news. The telegenic Mayor has the opportunity with his massive majority and cohesive caucus to implement an aggressive and activist agenda. However, to date there has been no substance to show for his efforts.
Gregor's drive to make it back to Victoria one day is likely clouding his day-to-day decision-making process and preventing some really innovative policy ideas from coming forward. His choice of cabinet members was surprising in that he gave some of his senior caucus members many of the more junior roles. His appointment of Geoff Meggs and Michael Magee does demonstrate that he understands the role of his lieutenants; Magee is a social enterprise true believer, and Meggs is a stalwart labour operative. Both are cunning players who provide a much-needed crusty shell for the Mayor's soft, mushy middle.
Rating Vancouver City Council Performances
In terms of the Mayor and individual councillors in Vancouver, we have also rated each of them based upon their ability to get ahead of issues, their skill at handling the media spotlight (or not), and their personal style. Here now is our reviews of Vancouver's city councillors:
Suzanne Anton (C-): It's hard when you are the lone opposition member of council, yet Anton has rarely shown the drive it takes to keep the government accountable. She has not made the transition from government to opposition very well. She rarely brings forward motions to council that make Vision squirm or get any media attention. Anton rails against council's rules of order, where she most often loses against the majority, and it makes her look petty. To have any impact during her second year in opposition, Anton must stake her ground and use her considerable base of support to bring more issues into the public spotlight.
David "Carbon" Cadman (F): Cadman often seems like he's stuck in a previous era of limitless government spending. Earth to David – there's a recession on. David preaches environmental sustainability, yet he racks up thousands of Aeroplan miles jetsetting around the world on the taxpayer's dime. His cozy relationship with Vision has led to his COPE party obtaining rump status in the Chamber. His ICLEI video tape which appeared to be filmed in the basement of City Hall was a sheer embarrassment to both him and his party. Thanks to his hubris, we don't have high hopes for an improvement from Cadman in 2010.
George Chow (C-): This veteran councillor is almost never heard in council. He may be working hard behind the scenes, but he has an invisible public profile. Chow is on-balance perhaps the most likable member of city council, and likely a reliable go-to guy for Vancouver's large Chinese population. But Chow had to be persuaded to run for a second term, and one has the feeling that he's already in retirement mode.
Heather Deal (C): Another veteran councillor who hasn't reached her potential in government. Although she handled the Burrard Bridge trial relatively well, Mayor Robertson has given her too many junior assignments given her level of expertise. She also remained silent as Council made serious cuts to the arts budget, a file that she once championed. While gregarious and fun in person, Deal also can be a loose cannon on the deck of the SS Vision. Her email banter revealed in FOIs shows at times a lack of maturity for the job.
Kerry Jang (F): Appointed as the Minister of Social and Community Services in Vancouver, he has been an unmitigated disaster. His handling of the HEAT shelters was nothing short of calamitous and he has now been sidelined by Mayor Robertson. He's faced a real steep learning curve and Vision has paid the political price as a result. Jang gets deducted further marks for his regularly shilling for NDP compadres, and ignoring the damage this does to his colleagues who at least try to maintain non-partisan appearances when asking for Provincial and Federal program support.
Raymond Louie (C): As Chair of Vancouver's budget, he has openly admitted on numerous occasions that he is not in the loop on major decisions. He was completely unaware that he voted to support $850,000 of renovations to City Hall and was blindsided by a massive shortfall in the police budget. He has a lot of potential, if only his former leadership rival would give him a bit of room to grow. Louie is also docked marks for stubbornly refusing to release his donor information from his mayoralty bid. Technically he didn't have to, but it was a huge contradiction from his previous piety about donor disclosure, and voters saw that.
Geoff 'Mayor' Meggs (B+): By far the most intelligent, articulate and media savvy city councillor. He knows the importance of keeping the team together and has worked tirelessly behind the scenes with the Mayor's office staff to keep the Vision agenda from falling apart at the seams. He isn't called Mayor Geoff Meggs without a reason. He's going places.
Andrea Reimer (B-): She introduced the backyard chickens motion and took a carbon-laden trip overseas, but Andrea is still a CityCaucus.com favourite. She's tough, but also understands the importance of balancing environmental concerns with the ability of taxpayers to finance it. A potential leadership candidate one day if she can lose the chip on her shoulder earned during her previous life as a homeless youth.
Tim Stevenson (B): As a three-term councillor, Tim understands that he shouldn't take politics too seriously. He's made some shrewd moves by canceling his trip to San Francisco before it became too much of an issue. By keeping a low profile and letting his colleagues do all the heavy lifting, he gets a high rating from our panel of judges. Stevenson has also done a good job promoting the sustainability file around water.
Ellen Woodsworth (C+): The soft-spoken councillor hasn't made much of an impression over the last 12 months with the exception of her odd performance at the recent anti-HST rally (she apparently was heard chanting "no GST" rather than "no HST"). Woodsworth came out strong on changes to the dated municipal elections act, and also questioned whether City staff and councillors should be shelling out thousands for Olympic tickets. Unlike her COPE colleague, Woodsworth is more pragmatic in her approach, but is still likely to get steamrolled in the next civic election as she was in 2005.
Park Board & School Board, cuz someone should talk about 'em
Apart from the controversies stirred after Labour Day on both the Vancouver Park Board (resignation of Susan Mundick) and the Vancouver School Board (allowing Olympic protestors to use school facilities) neither group has raised as much as a feint pulse in the public mind.
Vancouver Park Board: C-
The Vancouver Park Board have been described as among the worst group elected to this commission in a generation. The distractions around Vision Vancouver star candidate Constance Barnes getting liquored up on a public beach, then driving her car into someone's house, haven't helped. Board chair Raj Hundal has tried to stake his turf on the matter of hiring a replacement for Susan Mundick, but he was quickly crushed by the powerful City Manager. Non-Vision commissioners have not done a particularly good job of raising issues in the public mind. Stuart MacKinnon, the lone Green commissioner has an opportunity to really stand out as he doesn't represent traditional city politics (COPE or NPA), but we're still waiting for this to happen. Both Loretta Woodcock and Ian Robertson bring good experience to the commission, but neither have really stood out on the issues.
Vancouver School Board: C+
Over at the Vancouver School Board it has been entirely the Patti Bacchus Show. Bacchus would get a solid B grade from CityCaucus.com for her handling of the school funding issues. What Bacchus lacks is a bedside manner for public life. Judging by her comments on our blog she has a sense of humour, but comes across as a downer in the media. Bacchus and her Vision/COPE colleagues are using the Fraser Institute and BC Liberals as punching bags, not surprising given the huge support given by the BC Teacher's Union. Schools are vital to the future of Vancouver, and bringing partisan politicking into our schools only hurts communities. Just once we'd like to see Vision or COPE push back against the BCTF. While good work is being done by the NPA's Ken Denike and Carol Gibson, they've missed opportunities to take the lead on too many issues. Someone get them a publicist, stat!

Service and Therapy Dogs
Service and therapy dogs are trained to help people with disabilities and illnesses, as well as assisting the police in fighting crime. For example, Seeing Eye dogs help their owners navigate the outside world so they are able to go out and do things just like those that can see. It is illegal to deny a person from bringing their service dog into a public place. There are many organizations that train service and therapy dogs so they can be released to someone who needs them. To learn about the different breeds of dogs used for police work and therapy work, go to Canine Breeds
For more information on Seeing Eye dogs, go to Guide Dogs of America. At Seeing Eye visitors can learn how to apply for a dog and also how to raise a puppy. The Eye Dog Foundation offers the same services—from training a dog to owning one. To learn about the history of the Seeing Eye dog, click on Animal Shelter.
Therapy dogs are generally used in places such as nursing homes, hospitals, child care centers, etc. They may be used to help brighten up a patient's life, or cheer up a sick child. Go to Therapy Dogs for more information. TDI-Dog gives a lot of good information about their program, such as Alzheimer's patients who read to therapy dogs. Dog Logic is a training program for various therapy dogs. Go to Registered Service Dogs for information on getting a valid ID and registration card for a therapy dog. For more therapy dog certification, try Pawsitive Therapy.
Police dogs help law officials capture criminals and find illegal drugs. These animals have to go through years of training before they can work with the police force. For exclusive canine service for law enforcement agencies, visit Policek9 and k9web. For more information about the history of police dogs click on Geocites and Protection Dog. To learn about the types of dogs typically used in this field, as well as what they do, go to k9gta.
Service dogs can be a huge help for many people. If blindness is holding someone back from everyday life, a guide dog can be the answer to a prayer. Therapy dogs help cheer up and comfort many people, and police dogs serve an important role in law enforcement. Dogs not only play an important part as companions for people, they also have important jobs.

"Juliette is Martinu's operatic masterpiece and one of the most distinctive of
all 20th-century operatic works. The plot is hallucinatory and wonderfully
weird. Charles Mackerras delivers his usual outstanding results, the Czech Philharmonic plays amazingly, and the principal singers, especially Kozen? and Davislim, sing beautifully. We still need a new recording of the complete opera, but until then this will do nicely. Essential for anyone who cares about 20th-century opera, or Martinu generally."
It cannot be recommend highly enough"

brek shea signs for Stoke City
21:10 31st January 2013
Club complete £2.5 million transfer of USA star
STOKE CITY have confirmed that American international Brek Shea has now finalised his £2.5 million move to the Britannia Stadium.
The highly-rated 22-year-old winger's transfer from MLS side FC Dallas was sealed after he was granted a work permit and then the Club obtained all the necessary international clearance on transfer deadline day.
Shea has put pen-to-paper on a four-and-half year contract with the Potters and is relishing the chance to play in the Premier League.
Manager Tony Pulis travelled down to London to attend a hearing at Wembley to consider City's work permit appeal.
"It's fantastic news that we have been able to push through the deal," said Pulis. "Brek is a very, very exciting player, and one who we firmly believe could go on to become an outstanding player for this Football Club.
"He has terrific pace, a very good left foot and is capable of scoring goals. He has all the tools needed to be a success here."
Chief Executive Tony Scholes added: "The transfer has been a complex process, but we wouldn't have pursued our interest in him if we weren't confident in his ability and our prospects of completing the transfer.
"Brek first came to our attention through our scouting system three years ago and we have been tracking his progress ever since."
Shea is now looking forward to the prospect of performing in the Premier League once all the formalities have been completed.
"It's been up and down, trying to figure out what's going on, but I'm here now and ready to go. It's one of the best Leagues in the world, and I'm excited to be here and hopefully I can contribute," commented the USA star.

The discount sports retailer Sports Direct warned of torrid trading on the high street as it posted tumbling underlying full-year pre-tax profits.
Sports Direct's executive deputy chairman, Mike Ashley, said: "Retailing on the high street is the worst for the 25 years we have been doing it."
The retailer blamed the England football team's non-appearance at Euro 2008, a wet summer in 2007 and low consumer confidence for the company's trading situation.
The discount sports goods chain – which has 375 stores in the UK, 60 overseas and owns brands such as Donnay and Lonsdale – lost lucrative sales of replica England football tops, when the national team failed to qualify for this summer's European championship.
For the year to 27 April, Sports Direct delivered underlying pre-tax profits down 51.1 per cent to £85m. The retailer's group sales fell by 6.5 per cent to £1.26bn.
Mr Ashley, the colourful founder of Sports Direct, who is also the owner of Newcastle United football club, said he would focus on turning around its UK retail business and not acquisitions over the next year.
Giving a typically indomitable performance, Mr Ashley said: "We think we have got to get in our bunker. We have got to get back to basics. Whenever you do a deal, it always takes more time than you think it will."
He added: "We are pretty determined that it [Sports Direct] achieves what it achieved last year – that is the goal. That is where the focus is, so if we miss one or two opportunities that are out there because we are focused on that, then so be it."
However, Sports Direct's chief executive, Dave Forsey, chipped in by saying that the retailer had acquired brands, such as Everlast, and had plenty of other opportunities to grow its partnerships in countries such as China.
In fact, Sports Direct acquired Golddigga, a sports fashion brand targeted at teenage girls, this week. Mr Ashley cracked a joke about the name Golddigga, saying that his ex-wife is sponsoring the brand.
Sports Direct said it expected conditions to get worse in the short term as consumers cut back on spending amid rising fuel, food and mortgage costs.
Despite this, Sports Direct said its underlying Ebitda in May and June this year was "marginally ahead" of the same period last year, boosted by robust sales of new products from Nike.
The Oriel Securities analyst Jonathan Pritchard commented: "The market in which it is trading is so tough at the moment that we believe only the very best brands will manage to hold Ebitda, and Sports Direct is not one of them."
Mr Ashley, who owns a 72.2 per cent stake in Sports Direct, said that being a listed company had helped Sports Direct when dealing with high-profile brands, including Nike.
"Being a plc puts us in a different category and [with] Nike things are very positive. We now get access to more product than we did as a private company." For example, he said that if Sports Direct sells robust volumes of trainers at £75, this convinces Nike to provide it with stock of £100 trainers.
Asked about speculation that he may be interested in a bid for JJB, Mr Ashley said: "JJB is nothing to do with Sports Direct or me. I am not involved in it, I do not own shares in it."
He also lambasted the new format stores that the outdoor specialist retailer Blacks Leisure, in which Sports Direct has a strategic investment, is piloting in two London locations.
"I don't understand why they would open one store in Kensington and one in Holborn. Now I am from Slough, and Holborn and Kensington are not very representative of the rest of the country.
"They might as well have put it in Lillywhites because that would have been successful, but not relevant to Slough. We are not therefore always seeing eye to eye with Blacks' management. That has been the history since we had the stake and continues to be the case," said Mr Ashley.
He said he had no plans to take Sports Direct private, saying he was "absolutely 100 per cent" about being publicly listed. When Sports Direct floated in February 2007 its share price was 300p, but yesterday it fell 11.5 per cent, or 8.25p, to 63.5p.
Mike Ashley in his own words
* On customer spending patterns, he said: "They want the latest product. They either want the latest product or extreme value. The middle ground is getting absolutely murdered. Customers are a lot more choosy."
* "People are definitely a lot more selective. You absolutely have to be spot on with product. Everything has to be correct – it has to be the product and price and everything that goes with it. If you get any of that wrong, the next price point down is horrific."
* "The regret of being a plc was getting ourselves stuck on predictions one year ago like a rabbit in the headlights and then we froze."
* "We got ourselves a little bit constrained as a public company by keeping to forecasts all the time and that is on everything."
* "I think there are very few people in the world who would [enjoy speaking to the press]. Who looks forward to that?"
* "I am now going to subscribe to the Sunday Sport because apparently I am on the front page dressed as Bin Laden."
* Asked if he had any sympathy with M&S chairman Sir Stuart Rose, he said: "None whatsoever."
* "Dave [Forsey, Sports Direct's chief executive] has not worked since the 1980s – I promise you."
* "Chris Ronnie [chief executive of rivals JJB] is potentially in the wrong job. He could have become something in the squash world."
