I'm part of a growing number of authors who have published their books – their heart, soul, and sweat – independently, or "indie." Often, people hear the phrase "indie author" or "indie book" and aren't really sure what it means, or why any writer worth their salt would choose to publish that way.
Mark Shaw has founded a movement, #indiebooksbeseen to shine a spotlight on these authors, and the Frank Carlyle Show was kind enough to interview him about it. During the interview, an absolute deluge of indie book covers were featured, including my own.

Tune in.
Show Time on Parl Vu. Thursday, April 14, 8:45-10:45 a.m.
Minister of National Revenue and the Privacy Commissioner will appear before the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics this Thursday, April 14 8:45-10:45 a.m. on the transfer of FATCA data from CRA to IRS last September.
Parlvu indicates this will be broadcast through them.
The NDP put forward a request for the Minister to appear. They only have one seat on the committee, but the committee agreed unanimously.
You may recall Elizabeth Thompson reported at iPolitics that the Committee voted unanimously to request the Minister and the Commissioner to testify on the CRA transfer of records to IRS.
As I said in that article, I'm skeptical.
"I think it's just a show."
It could be a very interesting show. Or it could be a very boring show with the Minister reading from her pink note cards.
Tune in if you can…

Irwin Mitchell's international personal injury experts are concerned to find out that guests became ill whilst staying at the Diverhotel Lanzarote in September and October 2015.
Despite positive reviews, holidaymakers have reported that some of the food served at the hotel was not at a high enough temperature. One guest expressed that members of their party were served chicken that was raw with blood.
Another holidaymaker raised health concerns claiming that they saw staff cooking pancakes and handling raw fish at same time, without washing their hands.
Alarmingly visitors have reported falling ill with sickness and stomach cramps.
If you also travelled to the Diverhotel Lanzarote and have subsequently suffered from symptoms of illness, Irwin Mitchell, who specialise in dealing with cases of such nature, would like to hear from you.

In this project I will show you how I repurposed the useless buttons on my TV remote to control the LEDs behind my TV. You can also use this technique to control all sorts of things with a bit of code editing. I will also talk a bit about the theory of how an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver communicates with each other. Let's get started.
Step 1: Watch the video!
The video gives you all the info you need about the theory of this project and the practical implementation. So watch carefully.
But in the following steps I will also present you my parts list with example sellers and the schematic, code,.... to make your life easier if you want to build this.
Step 2: Order your parts!
Here you can find most of the parts that you will need to complete this buid.

I love capturing sweet little Baby Jackson Quinn Leahy! He was only eleven days old and one of the most peaceful babies I have ever posed. He was sleeping when I arrived; but we were able to steal one or two little smiles from him :)
He has the sweetest little face and was so calm during our photo session. Eleven days old is such a sweet time! Gotta love him!
Flashback to the beginning of this year, Leahy's family, Liliana and Ryan couldn't wait to meet sweet little baby Jackson. Life is beautiful then and even more beautiful after baby Jackson was born into world.
Jackson's dad, Ryan, is a big Notre Dame football fan; therefore it's a tradition for him to bring the Notre Dame helmet for his son photo shoot :)
Love capturing Leahy family, and hope to see Jackson grow up to become a great football player.

|Half Baths

|7 - 14 nights
Nestled comfortably within the graceful curve of Puako Bay, this home site is protected by a whale's tail-shaped lava outcropping. A light and airy house with cathedral ceilings, it offers peaceful comfort, spectacular views and the gentle sounds of water lapping on the shore. Located well back from Puako Beach Drive, next door to the tiny historic Hokuloa Church, the Whale's Tail is a surprise delight: nothing from the street side prepares you for the landscaped yard, large and sunny patio, covered lanai…right next to the sandy beach and quiet waters of the Pacific Ocean. Configured to sleep eight in three bedrooms with three baths, the Whale's Tail offers views of the bay, Maui and its volcanic mountain Haleakala, and our own Kohala Mountains
Combine the sandy beach next to your back yard with the thoughtfully placed windows that give you excellent views from nearly every spot in the house—upstairs and down—and you'll love the Whale's Tail for you Hawaii vacation. Not only is the entire ocean-facing wall built with windows, but also an additional row of large clerestory windows above them ensures that the second- floor loft space and bedrooms have ocean and sunset views. The décor throughout the home echoes the beach, ocean, sky and mountain environment: clean white walls, sandy shades of upholstery, blue-gray cabinetry and tiles of sand and sea colors. Original, local artwork—even in the bathrooms—adds to your sense of place in this very special corner of paradise. GE and TAX #097-892-3520-01
Keywords: 3 bedroom home, beach house, Puako beachfront home, oceanfront house, seaside house,
Aloha, I am Mary Fox, R (B) and owner of 2 Papayas, LLC. I manage this wonderful Puako home on behalf of the Owners. I would love to help you and your family find the perfect home for your stay on the Big Island. I am a local resident myself, so I am available to greet you upon arrival, answer any questions you may have, or attend to any concerns or requests that may arise during your stay. Until we meet in Paradise....
Puako is a special place to spend your time. It is a quiet ocean front community nestled among some of the worlds best beaches and resorts. This particular home is located on one of the few sandy shorelines in Puako, giving you the perfect place to snorkel, paddle board or kayak.
Steps from the property is the sandy beach and easy ocean access.
The house was cleaned and well stocked upon our arrival. We liked the geckos running around-very colourful. Its a nice open house and location beach front
Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The home had everything we needed and if there was anything we desired then the property management company quickly helped us. The beach in front of this house is nice and sandy and even seems more protected from the elements. I recommend this home for anyone interested in the Puako area.
The house was laid out really well. The view from our bedroom was more then any one would have expected. We walked out to the beach (just a few steps) and watched the gentle wave hit the lava rock out in the bay.
We stayed at the Whale's Tail with our group of 6 adults and 2 children, ages 4 and 7. This is a fabulous location for families with young kids as the bay is protected allowing for easy access throughout the day. We also rented kayaks and a standup paddle board from Lat 20 which allowed us to enjoy the bay even more. The house itself if well cared for and has an incredibly well stocked kitchen. We cooked every night and everything we needed as available, including a brand new grill. We will definitely rent the Whale's Tail again -- it's worth it!
This house was great for our stay and well equipped. The air condition worked great for warm days and the bedrooms were spacious and clean. Beach access is as good as it gets with fantastic snorkeling out the front door. No complaints at all and would stay here again. The current construction next door wasn't a big deal with only some minor hammering and occasional sawing. For the price reduction they're currently offering due to the construction you can't beat this price and location!
This was our second time on Puako beach but first time at the Whales Tail. House was exactly what we wanted. Beach in front of house was so nice especially for young kids. Very well stocked with beach chairs, snorkels masks fins etc. 2 papayas were wonderful, made sure we had everything we needed or asked for. Another plus for the Whales Tail is the house has air conditioning. Would highly recommend this house for a great family vacation
First the house: well equipped, with everything you would want, inside and out. The floating lounge chairs are great, snorkeling equipment great. The family kitchen area perfect for a large group. We were only five but we all had room to cook in the kitchen, eat, play games, do whatever we wanted to. Beach was very private, open the gate and boom, the beach. Management: 2papayas, excellent. They welcomed us when we arrived, they had a little welcome package plus some items we ordered. They walked us through the house, how to get in/out and all the things you would want to know about the house plus the Big Island. Great people! The location was perfect as a base camp for this Island. First, you are in the desert, so the weather is always beautiful. But within 20 minutes you are in lush green tropical forest, an hour you are 13,000ft high and 40 degrees. Day trips to the south side or East side are very easy. To be able to experience 11 out of 13 climate zones in one day is amazing. Summary: you cannot go wrong. This house is all equipped, bring you and your clothes and leave the rest and the worries behind. When I come back this is where I will be.

Plans by Vivendi to launch a European version of Netflix have been suspended.
According to Liberation, quoting Dominique Delport, the president of Vivendi Contents, a dedicated team of 15 people he led that was overseeing the project has had its weekly meetings suspended. While the project has not definitely been abandoned, it is now not a priority for Vivendi, whose focus now is on the launch of a premium service for mobiles by Studio+ in Latin America on September 30.
A European Netflix, were it to go ahead, would have been based on the existing SVOD assets of Canalplay in France and Watchever in Germany, which have 614,000 and 200,000 subscribers respectively. It would also have had the backing of Infinity, an SVOD service operated by Silvio Berlusconi's Mediaset, with which Vivendi established a partnership earlier this year, as well as Spain's Telefónica, in which Vivendi holds a minority (1%) stake.
However, Watchever is due to close at the end of this year, while the partnership with Mediaset has ended.
In a late update, Liberation says Vivendi informed it that the project is still expected to launch in spring 2017, adding that the pace of work has been spread out pending the outcome of negotiations with Mediaset.

Krajicek Befton III watched his son and daughter play with wooden swords from the high roof. The high roof was where he retained his authority, where he could survey all of his kingdom.
The Kingdom of Demby.
Beftons had ruled Demby for generations. Krajicek III's father ruled, as well as his father before him, Krajicek Befton, first of his name.
Krajicek III stood stoically, recalling the day his grandfather passed.
He was only six years of age, yet he remembered the day well.
His grandfather lay in his wooden bed. He had become mad in his old age, constantly flinging the sheets to the floor, exposing himself. His old skin sagged from his bones and his downstairs hair was so thick and coarse his old wiener looked like a miniature elephant trunk laying upon a bed of steel wool.
The wooden bed was made up of a three-foot headboard and a fifteen-inch footboard. The unfinished pine bed frame gave it a rustic look, which his grandfather preferred.
"The unfinished pine makes me feel cozy!" His grandfather would constantly yell, paranoid that his taste in furnishings were being questioned.
Along with the frame were two convenient storage drawers, also of pine, which could be easily concealed below the bed.
The storage drawers were emptied on the day of his grandfather's death.
One was filled with severed rodent feet.
The second contained a mass of crude drawings of boobies and nipples. The outside of the drawer had been labeled "HORNY BOX. DONT TOUCH!"
No one had actually seen a pine tree in ages, but years ago, when his grandfather was still young and horny, two Dembish scouts had discovered an ancient building filled with furnishings of all sorts.
"IKEA" it was called. It was discovered by Enyo Garbage and Cardon Verburr, two of his grandfather's finest scouts.
Many say Enyo was the finest swordsman Demby had ever seen. The only thing he wielded better than a sword was his erect wiener. Not just women, but men spoke highly of his stone shaft.
"I would have loved to have a roll around with the great Enyo Garbage," Krajicek III thought.
Krajicek III was a man of many sexualities.
Inside the "IKEA," Enyo not only discovered a bed, but a mattress.
The bed's mattress was its best feature.
Heavenly it was.
It was his grandfather's prized possession.
He nicknamed it the "Dream-Cog."
The mattress was a perfect blend of pre-compressed EnerFlex™ foams and the "state of the art" SpinalGrid, which greets your body with soul-soothing comfort that delivers long-lasting support to your entire body with special emphasis on your lumbar region.
His grandfather died on that mattress, and requested to be cremated with it as to prevent any others from enjoying its supreme comforts.
Krajicek III remained on the high roof, the memories of his grandfather flowing through his mind as he gazed out over his Kingdom.
Demby ranged from Pheebiz, a land at peace with Demby, to the edge of Urwasp, a land of darkness. All of it fell under the rule of Krajicek III.
No one had seen flat earth in generations. The horizon was composed of roofs, roofs for miles in all directions. Krajicek had only ever heard of flat earth in the stories told by elders. The only person who had ever claimed to have walked on flat land was his grandfather. Some said he was without his wits, but Krajicek liked to believe the stories as a child. Krajicek even believed them as a man, but would never admit it openly.
"I felt grass and dirt between my toes; I felt alive. For once I felt alive… Don't let anyone look in my horny box," his grandfather whispered in his ear on the day of his death just before his bowels released.
"Lord Befton!"
Krajicek III turned to see Bald Jordan, the Keeper of Pigeons, running towards him, huffing and puffing as he approached.
"Lord, everything is ready for our journey," Bald Jordan said urgently.
"Good, we leave at first light."
"Yes m'lord, I will inform the scouts." Bald Jordan turned and left.
Krajicek III watched Bald Jordan as he walked away, admiring the curves of his bod.
"That ass is goin' in the spank bank," Krajicek III thought to himself.

Flood Damage Middletown Pa
Flood damage is one of the worst disasters that can strike a home or commercial building. The main reason flooding is considered serious is because of the long term health risks that can develop if the building is not properly restored.
It takes more than cleaning for proper Middletown, Pa flood damage mitigation, which is why it should be done by a reputable company. If ServiceMaster cleans your home or other building after flooding, you can rest assured that mold, mildew and other pathogens will most likely not develop to pollute your indoor air quality.
There are many parts of a home that can be ruined by flood water including:
• Furniture
• Carpets
• Appliances
• Electrical outlets
• Furnaces
• Air conditioning units
• Toilets and other plumbing
Electrical outlets can cause severe shocks and electrocution, and should be repaired by a licensed electrician. Toilets can overflow causing black water to enter floors, ceilings and walls. There are three categories of water including:
• Category 1 – considered clean water and not a threat to humans
• Category 2 – considered grey water that contains microorganism and can cause sickness if ingested by humans
• Category 3 – considered black water that is grossly unsanitary and contains harmful bacteria and other pathogens
All water will develop into black water if it is left too long. This includes dampness in walls, ceilings and floors. This is the main reason why Middletown, Pa flood damage is considered a health risk. ServiceMaster is one of the largest disaster restoration companies in the world and provides restoration for carpets, hard floors and upholstery.
For commercial premises, ServiceMaster minimizes business interruption, so companies can quickly return to pre-disaster conditions. For residential premises, Middletown, Pa flood damage need not be caused by a natural disaster. Even flooding from washing machines, dishwashers and rain water needs to be properly mitigated to prevent the health hazards of contaminated air to develop. A proper inspection of the flooded area is required by professionals who have the technologically advanced equipment to determine dampness in places that cannot be seen. Simply drying the flooded area is not enough.
There are four classes of water damage from slow evaporation to fast evaporation as well as materials affected such as low porosity materials that absorb little water to high porosity materials such as upholstery, carpets and cushions. ServiceMaster will examine all aspects of a water damage area and select the right tools and procedures to remove any hazard.

Pay attention to 9 and 10:
Our eyes tell us that people look different. No one has trouble distinguishing a Czech from a Chinese. But what do those differences mean? Are they biological? Has race always been with us? How does race affect people today?
There's less - and more - to race than meets the eye:
1. Race is a modern idea. Ancient societies, like the Greeks, did not divide people according to physical distinctions, but according to religion, status, class, even language. The English language didn't even have the word 'race' until it turns up in 1508 in a poem by William Dunbar referring to a line of kings.
2. Race has no genetic basis. Not one characteristic, trait or even gene distinguishes all the members of one so-called race from all the members of another so-called race.
3. Human subspecies don't exist. Unlike many animals, modern humans simply haven't been around long enough or isolated enough to evolve into separate subspecies or races. Despite surface appearances, we are one of the most similar of all species.
4. Skin color really is only skin deep. Most traits are inherited independently from one another. The genes influencing skin color have nothing to do with the genes influencing hair form, eye shape, blood type, musical talent, athletic ability or forms of intelligence. Knowing someone's skin color doesn't necessarily tell you anything else about him or her.
5. Most variation is within, not between, "races." Of the small amount of total human variation, 85% exists within any local population, be they Italians, Kurds, Koreans or Cherokees. About 94% can be found within any continent. That means two random Koreans may be as genetically different as a Korean and an Italian.
6. Slavery predates race. Throughout much of human history, societies have enslaved others, often as a result of conquest or war, even debt, but not because of physical characteristics or a belief in natural inferiority. Due to a unique set of historical circumstances, ours was the first slave system where all the slaves shared similar physical characteristics.
7. Race and freedom evolved together. The U.S. was founded on the radical new principle that "All men are created equal." But our early economy was based largely on slavery. How could this anomaly be rationalized? The new idea of race helped explain why some people could be denied the rights and freedoms that others took for granted.
8. Race justified social inequalities as natural. As the race idea evolved, white superiority became "common sense" in America. It justified not only slavery but also the extermination of Indians, exclusion of Asian immigrants, and the taking of Mexican lands by a nation that professed a belief in democracy. Racial practices were institutionalized within American government, laws, and society.
9. Race isn't biological, but racism is still real. Race is a powerful social idea that gives people different access to opportunities and resources. Our government and social institutions have created advantages that disproportionately channel wealth, power, and resources to white people. This affects everyone, whether we are aware of it or not.
10. Colorblindness will not end racism. Pretending race doesn't exist is not the same as creating equality. Race is more than stereotypes and individual prejudice. To combat racism, we need to identify and remedy social policies and institutional practices that advantage some groups at the expense of others.
RACE - The Power of an Illusion was produced by California Newsreel in association with the Independent Television Service (ITVS). Major funding provided by the Ford Foundation and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting Diversity Fund.
9 says that race isn't biological, but racism is real. Is race biological? No, if we mean biological in the natural kind sense of the term. Races are neither like species nor like different breeds of cats or dogs since the people who normally fall under our race terms (e.g. Caucasian, black, etc.) have no significant genetic dissimilarity; for instance, one is likely to find more genetic similarity between some who we call "black" and "hispanic" than between some who we call "black" and others who we call "black." This leaves open whether races are (a) unreal (that is, there is nothing which our race terms and ideas refer to), or are (b) real but not natural kinds; instead they are social kinds (like citizens or bankers) perhaps partly grounded in phenotypical features, or (c) some other thing altogether.
According to 9, race isn't grounded in phenotypical features at all; rather race is simply an idea. And there seems to be nothing to which the idea of race refers. Moreover it's an idea which privileges whites. How? In what way? No examples are given. But these advantages are there, even if we aren't aware of it. (Trust us. They. Are. There.) Presumably, though, these advantages do not exist in the form of affirmative action programs!
According to 10, we shouldn't presume that race doesn't exist. What does this mean? If 9 is correct, race is only an idea--and nothing whatsoever is mentioned about any extra-mental reality to which our idea refers. Blacks and whites are like unicorns and centaurs. Still, racism is real. Even though there are no blacks to which our idea of race refers, a Klansman can still be a racist. Racism is real, but race is an idea. Got that?
Still, we need the idea of race. Why? 10 tells us. So that we can have social policies and institutional practices that advantage some groups (non-whites) over others (whites). In other words, even though the idea of a particular race does not refer to anything in the world--it's a mental fiction--we need to pretend there are extra-mental races, so that people like Al Sharpton, race studies professors, diversity officers, etc. have employment and can privilege some over others--in the name, of course, of remedying alleged advantages given to whites by institutions and policies. Ignoring race as the (alleged) fiction that it is would have the undesirable result that affirmative action policies and institutions go out of business.
One wonders, if colorblindness would not end racism, what would?

Governor Chris Christie and Pastor Joe Carter of New Hope Baptist Church encourage NJ residents to dial 211 this holiday season if they need encouragement and support. NJ 2-1-1 maintains a database of over 10,000 community resources including addiction recovery services, health and wellness programs, and services providing assistance with life's most basic needs – food, clothing, affordable housing, utility assistance and more. The Gift of Support is a phone call away. As the video says, "Help is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week offering encouragement, support and services. That help is at New Jersey's 2-1-1. Just call 211 for free, confidential support. You're not alone in your struggle. Just dial 211."
If you worked part-time or full-time in 2016 you may be eligible to apply for the Earned Income Tax Credit (also known as the EITC or EIC) when you file your taxes this coming year. Tax season starts on January 1, 2017 and by April 15 all returns must be filed. Depending on your income and family size, you could receive a federal credit in the range of $506 to $6,269, and a state credit of $178 to $2,195. To learn the particulars of the EITC and eligibility requirements, visit our tax assistance web page.
Help is available when it comes to filing your taxes or applying for the EITC. Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites are located throughout New Jersey and are staffed by people who have been trained to help you file your tax return for FREE. Every year NJ 2-1-1 compiles the most comprehensive list of VITA sites. In some locations we can also schedule appointments. Visit our website or dial 211 to speak with a community resource specialist who will find the location nearest you.
NJ 2-1-1 welcomed in the holiday season with an ugly sweater contest and Secret Santa gift exchange that took place during a festive luncheon with staff, board members and United Way partners. During the celebrations, we honored one of our own.
Anjali Luland was commended for her ten years of service as a community resource specialist. "Anjali has been an exemplary member of our staff for years," states Janice Kaniewski, NJ 2-1-1 call center director. "She listens so carefully that she often hears the message behind the words spoken by our callers. It's that kind of careful listening that brings her to search for community resources that will satisfy expressed and unexpressed needs." Expertise like this can make a real difference in a person's life.
That is exactly the sentiment expressed by Roberta, a grandmother from Essex County who called us this summer hoping to find an affordable apartment for herself and her granddaughter who she is raising. As the conversation continued, and Anjali learned that Roberta was caring for the young child, Anjali told her about the Kinship Navigator Program, a program designed to help family members who are raising children whose parents are unable to do so. Roberta called hoping to find out about some affordable housing. Thanks to Anjali, she learned about the New Jersey Housing Resource Center, the Kinship Navigator Program, utility assistance programs and pantries in her area that could help her if she was running low on food. "I was at my wit's end that day," Roberta says. "2-1-1 changed all that for me."
* NJ 2-1-1 is a free and confidential service. We could never have told Roberta's story without her express permission. Thank you Roberta for helping us share our work with others by sharing your story with us!

Every year for the past four years I've had the priveledge to draw at the Milwaukee School of Engineering for their welcome week/student orientation. It's a two day gig, seven hours of drawing both days and it is always very busy the whole time. Despite the long hours, I always look forward to working this gig because it's a relaxed atmosphere and the people are always so great.
In fact, I've gotten to know some of the students and their parents fairly well. This past September marked my fourth year drawing at MSOE, which meant a lot of the seniors who came by to get their caricature drawn had gotten one done each year since they were freshmen. What a great tradition! A mom and her son even brought every drawing they've had done, and we took a picture holding each version:
Having a caricature artist at an event like this is also great way for new students to connect. I've noticed a lot of times I'll be drawing someone, and another student or group of students will walk by, notice the drawing, make a comment, and the next thing you know they are discussing majors, classes, teachers and more. So, not only did my subject get a drawing they can hang on their dorm room wall, but they also made some new friends. I'm glad I can help bring people together!

Teaching Conference 2012
As far as many of my interests go, Ithaca generally feels centrally isolated. Almost any interesting enrichment requires me to drive 5 plus hours, usually further, and often to a different state.
In a break from the ordinary, I'm happy to report that I've just returned from Rochester, NY where I joined a slew other bakers and cake decorators participating in a 2 day teaching seminar. Yes!!!
It was gratifying to spend the weekend sharing information with so many incredible and supportive women. It was great to meet and get tips from other teachers, and I can't even begin to express how invaluable the Class Seminars were for me. I came away with tons of valuable information for my classes, and lots of refreshed perspective and ideas. It was inspiring and stimulating to train with such amazing instructors whose love of cake decorating was apparent and contagious. My skills feel fine tuned and my organization improved. I can't wait to get back into the classroom.

The license for the library is non-free. That would put "your program" into contrib, at best. It's always better to not rely on something that doesn't qualify as DFSG-Free unless you have no other choice. In those cases, you just bite the bullet and realize that "your program" isn't pure Free Software. > As a worst case scenario, > a patent could be like a `revoke-on-a-whim' clause in a license. > Simply because it is not at all clear what would happen if a party and > a patent holder stood in front of a judge, and the party was trying to > argue that the patent holder can not set the terms of the license. I'm not a IP lawyer, hell, I'm not a lawyer at all. Company I'm working for has been in a few patent lawsuits the last two years (plaintiff asserting ownership :( ) And from what I gather from the "talk down to the techie's" explanations, patents can have licenses on them just like copyrights can... so the patent holder can create a "Free Software" license to his patent. In that case, there would be no situation that wouldn't be clear infront of a judge. The party would have a license in had giving him Free Software rights. > To take it a step further, > since the outcome of the above conflict would not necessarily be the > same in all jurisdictions, it could be argued that the license > may not always be the same for everyone. DFSG doesn't depend on jurisdictions and their laws. The statement "void where prohibited by law, or what not" does not make a license non-free. > Is a patent a one way ticket into non-free? Not as long as the license to that patent is non-free.

Henley Management College Essay, Research Paper
By Professor Ray Wilde in London = Ask anyone under 50 in any reasonably successful organisation and they will tell you that business life is dramatically different from two or three years ago. Work is longer, harder and unending. A Management Today Ceridian survey reports that more than 76 per cent of UK managers said they wanted to spend more time doing other things; 50 per cent of men and 65 per cent of women claim that work leaves them drained of energy. This situation is not likely to improve. The underlying reasons for the changes – the increasing speed of communication and internationalisation of business – are here to stay. Add to this the personal and financial aspirations of people in a globalised boom economy and we have the recipe for a potent acquisitive culture that sets the pace for everything else. Nor can we count on an influx of new interns. There is a critical and long-term talent deficit. Studies of the "war for talent" suggest that three-quarters of organisations now have "insufficient" or a "chronic" shortage of talent – and that the demand for talented executives will increase by a third in the years ahead, when the number of candidates in their mid 20s to mid 30s will actually decline. However, the future of business depends on these new people supported by the current generation of managers grappling with corporate change. But, what qualities will budding managers bring to the party? Many more people are now engaged in building innovative businesses. These are hungry and acquisitive people, keen to make their mark and their fortune. But unlike their forerunners they are secure enough to bear the risk of failure and confident enough to learn from their mistakes and move on. They are not necessarily wealthy, but they know that they are valuable. They thrive on uncertainty and value fun and excitement rather than social and domestic stability. They are often the "backpack" generation, who figure that gambling two or three years of their early career is like travelling the world in the pre-university "gap" year – unpredictable, risky, inspiring and character building. Business in the 21st century needs such people. Britain is not blessed with a glut of such risk-takers. Research for Eastern Energy suggests that we are still a country of "risk avoiders", so we should perhaps cultivate those who show more entrepreneurial tendencies. Others, caught up in the new circumstances of doing business, will either have learned, or failed, to live with them. These are not new people but "converted" people. A Henley Management College report (Management in the New Economy) has shown that the competencies required of such people are IT skills, creativity, strategic thinking and e-commerce awareness. Staff will not accept management indecision, lack of focus and managers hiding behind closed doors. Managers are likely to experience changed roles as a result of the increasingly sophisticated application of technology in support areas. For example, human resources (HR) systems that have enabled staff empowerment have radically reduced the HR function itself. This has led to line managers becoming responsible for those people management aspects not readily automated. The death of the purchasing function is being predicted as systems make it feasible to return the task to the point at which purchases are to be used. This implies the need for managers to have a broader understanding and a more rounded business role. Organisations must discern not only what types of people they need, but also how to keep them. Loyalty and commitment cannot be assumed. Whatever the situation, whether in start-up or in an established business, work life balance will be a key management issue. Women have traditionally been more adept at facing the struggle to balance their careers and families. But as the new economy takes hold, men too, will have to deal with this. So, are women better prepared to cope in the new business world? Ask Marjorie Scardino at Pearson, Carly Fiorina at Hewlett Packard, Hilary Cropper and Jo Connell at FI Group and hundreds of other women who are now in charge of a quarter of the small and medium sized enterprises on which the future of business depend. Their time management skills, sharpened by years of juggling home and work priorities, and their superior emotional intelligence, are important components to the success of companies in the new business world. As long as the new economy continues to grow and create new types of jobs, the long-overdue ascent of women at the core and top of organisations is inevitable. [Professor Ray Wild is principal of Henley Management College in the UK]

By: Clio, Heather, Karen Project Based Learning a dynamic approach to teaching in which students explore real-world problems and challenges. With this type of active and engaged learning, students are inspired to obtain a deeper knowledge of the subjects they're studying. What is Project Based Learning? By definition, Project Based Learning Is..... But... What PBL really is.. A meaningful environment which fosters student driven exploration and purposeful skill development with real world application that creates a lasting impact on the learner for today and the future! 2. Design a Plan for the Project 6.Evaluate the Experience 3. Create a Schedule 4. Monitor the Student and the Progress of the Project PBL Process A meaningful environment which fosters student driven exploration and purposeful skill development with real world application ... ... and the future! PBL Biography The most "official application of PBL" was in medical schools. PBL was developed originally as an alternative approach to the education of physicians and first implemented at McMaster School of Medicine in 1969. In the mid 1970's the School of Nursing adopted PBL in a hybrid curriculum where all the nursing courses were taught using PBL. Medical professionals needed to keep up with new information and always learning is very important to them. Therefore, PBL was perfect for them. Many medical, professional schools, undergraduate and graduate programs use PBL in some form. How are students graded? Specific rubrics vary from project to project, but there are a few things that are the same from project to project. Major Grades The final product of a PBL will typically be a major grade. This grade will usually take the place of a test in that grading period.
Some typical components of the major grade
Peer Evaluation- 10 pt.
Self Evaluation- 10 pt.
Rest of Project- 80 pt. Minor Grades Minor grades are usually either quizzes, checkpoints designated by the teacher, or graded journal entries students are often required to complete each day. Note: This may vary depending on the PBL and teacher. Other Grades Other grades are typically either journal entries or worksheets. However, there are very few of these during a PBL. Teachers Students Teachers also like PBL... Teachers thoughts on PBL How teachers think students benefit from PBL Teachers Concerns about PBL Only they know how they learn best! Students like PBL because... 1. Start with a essential question Example: "How can we use mathematics to design and use a Dobsonian telescope?" Comparison of PBL Where Is PBL? PBL is is everywhere. Many schools across the nation and the globe are switching to the new profound way of learning – PBL. PBL is in schools of all kind, elementary, secondary, college, and universities. PBL is also prominent in real life. Adults do it every day at work; it's also the founding basis of how many companies run. PBL isn't only in the USA, it's everywhere on earth. Recently, PBL has had a big impact on schools in Hong Kong, Central China, Singapore, Austria, and more. But..

perspectives •It's a student-centered approach.
•Typically students find it more enjoyable and satisfying.
•It encourages greater understanding.
•Students with PBL experience rate their abilities higher.
•PBL develops lifelong learning skills. •Class attendance increases.
•The method affords more intrinsic reward.
•It encourages students to spend more time studying.
•It promotes interdisciplinary. •It makes student learning a priority.
•It may aid student retention.
•It may be taken as evidence that an
institution values teaching. Example:
Sue- research how to make Dobsonian telescopes
Bob- research Dobsonian design innovations
Jack- research mathematics involved in making a Dobsonian telescope
Sally- research Dobsonian designs Example:
Sally's Conclusion:
"I really liked this project because our group worked hard and got a good grade! I enjoy PBL much better than a regular test!" Divide the assignment up so everyone does some research. Example-
Research- due Jan 6
Rough Draft-due Jan 18
Final Copy- due Jan 29 Make up due dates! ASK QUESTIONS!! Example:
Sally, Sue, Bob, and Jack got a B!
They found out what they did wrong, and asked the teacher about things they didn't understand. Draw Conclusions! And Much Much More....

The Art of the Pizza Box
By Chris Dickman
Founding Editor, Graphics.com
Pizza is like the air we breath: it's all around us and largely invisible, thanks to its ubiquity. And if it has become a commodity, remarkable primarily for its mediocrity in the hands of corporate interests, a little flicker of wood-fired flame lives on here and there, reminding us of what attracted us to this essentially modest, hand-made dish in the first place.
We all have our favorite pizza joints that have resisted the relentless Dominoization of recent years. It's this kind of authenticity that I assume is at the heart of Scott Weiner's passion for pizza, to the extent that he blogs regularly about it in his Pizza Journal, authors a monthly column for Pizza Today Magazine and conducts Scott's Pizza Tours, which "guide tourists and New Yorkers though the history, science, and culture of New York City pizza." Science, no less. If that wasn't enough, Scott has apparently been collecting pizza boxes for more than a decade. In fact, he's the author of Viva La Pizza!: The Art of the Pizza Box, in which he shares 100 pizza box cover illustrations from his collection of 600 and explores the history of this modest package.
Below is a brief interview and a few selected box covers. Are you hungry yet?
Why pizza box art?
Everyone interacts with pizza boxes. We always see the images printed on them but never give them due credit as works by artists. Some of the Italian boxes are absolutely breathtaking. It's the most under-appreciated art form of all time.
Where is your favorite pizza box from?
I'm in love with a box I found in Amsterdam. It looks like Bart and Homer Simpson but their hair is changed, presumably so the company can try to avoid a lawsuit. They're standing in front of a brick oven and "Bart" is airborne on his skateboard. I honestly yelped when I saw it.
Can you tell anything about how a pizza will taste from the box it comes in?
It all depends where you are. In New York, nobody puts much effort into their pizza boxes. Some of the best places use the worst boxes. Then you go out of the area and that story changes. Southern Italian boxes are as gorgeous as their pizzas.
Is the old adage true...is there no such thing as bad pizza? Is there such a thing as a bad pizza box?
I actually believe there IS bad pizza but there ISN'T a bad pizza box. I adore some of the "terrible" ones because they speak so much of the simplicity of the food. The generic stock boxes are my favorite because they aren't designed for marketing purposes at all. They're just fun!
Are there any states or countries that do something out of the ordinary with their pizza boxes?
Japanese boxes are amazing. They really push the limits in art and on the structure of the boxes themselves. I'm in touch with a Japanese box designer who sends me sketches of the most insane boxes I've ever seen. He promised he'd send me samples if they ever go into production. But that's top secret. I've already said too much.
How much pizza do you eat?
I limit myself to 15 slices per week. Every slice I go over that limit cuts back the following week's maximum by two. I keep track on a data tracking app so I can see my pizza consumption in graph form!
What is your favorite topping?
I like a basic cheese slice or Margherita pie, but if there's a topping it's going to be sausage. So much flexibility in sausage.
New York or Chicago style?
New York pizza is portable and doesn't take 45 minutes for a pie to bake. Chicago pies require you sit down and use a knife and fork. I don't mind a knife and fork for lasagna, but I got to eat pizza with my hands.
Folded or not?
I'm a semi-folder. You keep your index finger in the crust crevice so moisture on the face of the slice can evaporate. Otherwise you get a jumble of cheese and sauce popping out the top. Better for taste, better for stability.
What about the design and engineering of the pizza box do you find so remarkable?
What I find most remarkable is that the box has barely changed over the past 60 years. It's far from perfect and that's what I find so remarkable about it. The few that have dared to be different look like novelties because we're so used to the boring old box structure.
If you could change the engineering of the pizza box in one way, what would it be?
I'd find a better way to get rid of the steam while keeping the pizza hot. Steam = crust soggification. A couple boxes in the book come pretty close to achieving this goal so I might not have to invent anything after all!
If you owned a pizzeria, what would the box look like?
I'd hire my favorite pizza box artists to collaborate on a series of different boxes. We'd change them all the time so people would want to collect them. It would be extremely expensive, but a boy can dream.

Well apart from posting about
""this week's Southside Podcast,
I haven't blogged at all this week. As I wrote at the end of last year, one of my new year's resolutions was to post more frequently. I'm not one of these people who fail their new year's resolution in January and then give up bothering to start over again. "O well, I'll have to wait till next year". I'm convinced that some people deliberately set themselves up for a fall by using this logic. They don't really want to stop smoking – They're addicted to it for goodness sake. So they make a big thing of saying that starting January 1st, they won't smoke again. They then spend the whole of New Year's Eve chain smoking, while saying to themselves and those around them "only a few minutes to go till I stop smoking". Then as midnight draws nearer, they frantically try to get as much smoking done as possible. Then midnight comes. They make a big thing about stopping smoking. Then it's January 6th and they have one cigarette. Then it's, "o well, there's always next year".
Anyway, enough of the elementary psychology lecture. I mean I don't want to baffle you with my paradigm shifting revelations about the human psyche. My point simply is that just because I haven't posted as much as I intended to this year, I'm not going to take the "o well there's always next year" approach. So expect more revealing insights into the human psyche throughout the year, with a few fart jokes thrown in for good measure.
My excuse for not bloggin this week is because I've had a really busy week. I've just started working on a top-secret project that few people know about. No, it's not a revolutionary breakthrough in human psychology, although you'd obviously be excused for thinking such a thing. I'm not going to reveal anything about this until it's well under way, because I've learnt from experience not to get to enthusiastic and not to count your chickens before they've hatched. You learn these things after years living on a farm with an overly zealous mathematician. So you'll just have to wait to find out, or try and work it out for yourself by any clues I might accidentally leave in my blog posts. I imagine this will start a huge debate on Internet forums across the world. what is David Eagle's secret project? Thousands of people worldwide dissecting my blog posts for any clues as to what this project could be. Could it be a compendium of fart jokes? A thesis on human psychology? …
On Tuesday I attended a business course. I haven't had a great wealth of experience of these kinds of course, but apparently (from talking with quite a few people) a lot of these courses are similar in terms of presentation style. The major thing that struck me as a little odd was that every time someone answered a question correctly, a sweet of some variety would be thrown to them. It seemed a little odd that a room full of professionals would be rewarded with candy chucked at their heads by a flamboient, camp course instructor. I was doing quite well answering the questions, but soon decided it was best to leave the answering to others when he moved on to hurling gobstoppers. I'm not sure how many people attending the course were actually interested in the subject being taught, or whether they simply attended these courses for the sweets. Anyway, thanks to this course I have since developed quite a sweet tooth. Granted I still know nothing about business but that's hardly the point is it? I think I'm going to have to enroll on a few more courses simply to satisfy my newly developed addiction to confectionary. There's a bookkeeping course in a couple of weeks. I'm not entirely sure what that's all about. Perhaps they'll teach me to develop strategies for successfully evading library fines. Actually, I wonder if there's a joke-writing course. It could be very useful for improving the quality of this blog. Obviously I'll only go if they're giving out free sweets.
Anyway, my plan to blog more regularly will be successful as far as next week is concerned, because I'll be issuing a new podcast everyday for six days starting this Monday. I'll let you know what that's all about on Monday. see you then.
There might even be free sweets.

Elephants And Parking Meter – What's the Connect?
In Florida, if an elephant is left tied to a parking meter, the parking fee has to be paid just as it would for a vehicle."
Okay, now just sit back and think about it. Elephant plus parking meter. Again, elephant plus parking meter.
How do these two even equate with any form of logic?
It's obvious that at some point in the distant past some clown from a circus was riding down the streets of Miami on an Safe tea approved defensive driving habits play a big role in getting into a trucking school, and your tea approved defensive driving record is considered before you are accepted into a truck tea approved defensive driving school. elephant and decided to tie the poor thing up to a parking meter while he went inside a diner for a bite to eat. Some cop saw it, gave him a ticket and a fight broke out. Could you imagine seeing a cop with a billy club going at it with a guy wearing a wig, white face paint, and a big red ball nose and huge floppy shoes while some elephant stands there befuddled at the whole thing?
This type of stuff is what makes America so goofy. Municipalities never said, no elephant riding through the city but instead leaned toward the solution that brings in revenue. Never mind that an elephant weighs several tons and when going berserk could destroy cars and buildings easily.
We'll chalk this one up in the "Dangerous Parking Animals" file and see how much they'll charge if you tie a wolverine to a parking meter.

Charles Mackinlay's Rare Old Highland Malt Whisky
Shape up by Kamal
Our tale starts in 1907, when legendary examiner Ernest Shackleton contacted the Glen Mhor Distillery to question for twenty-five cases of their Mackinlay's Rare Ancient Raised ground Malt – a ten year ancient whisky which was recognizable as one of the classic Raised ground malts of its day. The distillery was pleased to oblige and even bent a in memories mark to honor the event, which read "Individually set for the British Cool Expedition 1907 – Ship Patience". You see, at that time Shackleton was schooling to chat the name of his ship from "Nimrod" to "Patience", but he eventually lost appeal in the thought. Even if, time was a thing so in Distinguished 1907, Shackleton late from London on the Nimrod, with the mislabeled "Patience" whisky steadily stored beneath the decks.
The Nimrod at home in Antarctica's McMurdo Sound on January 29th, 1908. Upstairs hallway at Cape Royds, the team battled tiresome circumstances for days as they struggled to build shelter and bring their gear and equipment to shore. When they were everlastingly customary at their base camp, the team started their methodical work and ongoing schooling their long journey to both the South Pole and the Attractive South Pole. Shackleton and three team members late in November 1908 and started the tiresome march south – a journey which brought the men to the edge of undernourishment. They eventually fall small of their goal by less than 100 miles. Even if, the legendary leadership skills of Shackleton ensured that all four men returned steadily and were back on board the Nimrod by early March 1909. As the chill sea ice started to form and the blizzards returned, the expedition promptly sailed for home, leave-compelling in the rear many of their confidential equipment – counting numerous crates of the Mackinlay's Rare Ancient Raised ground Malt.
Now quick forwards to February 2007, when two crates of whisky were exposed in Antarctica by a team from the New Zealand Cool Heritage Trust – a group dyed-in-the-wool to preserving the description of the province. Even if the discovery sparked the appeal of copious world organizations, the crates could not be indifferent from Antarctica due to global protocols. So the crates remained enclosed in ice until early 2010, when the Cool Heritage Trust was contracted consent to take out one of the cases. It was promptly rushed to the Canterbury Museum where it took two weeks to fully thaw out and soothe the whisky. After carrying out a fussy breakdown of the wrap, it was deemed that the whisky was the very same Mackinlay's Rare Ancient Raised ground Malt that was distilled in 1897 and bottled in 1907 exclusively for Ernest Shackletons' Nimrod expedition to Antarctica.In January 2011, three bottles of this rare whiskey were returned to Whyte & Mackay, the owners of the Mackinlay brand. It was transferred by confidential jet to the Whyte & Mackay's Invergordon Moral fiber Laboratory, where Master Liquidizer Richard Paterson, and his adept team spent numerous weeks in the laboratory nosing, tasting and deconstructing the whisky to expose its right heritage. Aside from identifying the innumerable aromas and flavors, this rigorous breakdown proved that the whisky was 47.3% alcohol, was aged in American white oak sherry casks, and the peat used for the malting originated in the Orkney Islands.
Inspired by their breakdown, the team embarked on the challenge of recreating this rare whisky, and the consequence is exceptional. This thorough reproduction of the first is an complicated blend of Speyside (Longmorn, Benriach, Glenfarclas, Mannochmore, Tamnavulin and Glenrothes), Raised ground (Balblair and Pulteney) and Jura malts which have been sensibly elected for their point feeling profiles. This masterful amalgamation is collected of malts unreliable in age from eight to thirty years ancient, which have been married in the finest sherry butts. The ensuing moral fiber is complicated, aromatic and refined, donation delicate notes of crushed apple, pear and fresh pineapple complemented by smoke, vanilla, caramel, nutmeg and oak. The pot and packaging have also been recreated down to the last point – foam in the glass make each pot only one of its kind, while the marks incorporate hand-calligraphy and cataloging techniques from the early 20th century. Only 50,000 bottles were bent, so add Mackinlay's Rare Ancient Raised ground Malt to your pool today.
Cheers from DrinkUpNY!

Yesterday in the New York Time's "Diner's Journal," New York Times' "Your Money" columnist Ron Lieber wrote a brief dispatch about getting kicked out of Restaurant Marc Forgione in Tribeca in his post entitled "Why I got Kicked Out of a Restaurant on Saturday Night." It's a simple tale of customer vs. chef, clashing cultures, big egos, and differing points of view.
The abridged version of the story begins with journalist Lieber as diner. The writer was eating at Forgione's restaurant this weekend when—during the height of service—Chef Forgione began berating one of his employees for talking back to him in, what I must assume to be, an open kitchen. The verbal attacks were so loud—Leiber wrote in his "Diner's Journal" post—that many in the dining room were visually disturbed.
So enraged by the outburst's effect on his appetite, Lieber marched into Forgione's kitchen and scolded the chef for his behavior. When Lieber returned to his table to continue his meal, Chef Forgione followed him into the dining room to speak with the writer about the inappropriateness of his actions. No customer, Forgione said, has the right to reprimand the chef in his kitchen. Even if he was screaming bloody murder.
After a brief back and forth about unsuitable behaviors, Forgione demanded that Lieber (and his guests) leave immediately. Lieber did, in fact, exit the restaurant but departed with a burning desire to tell his story.
Though this type of incident is just the kind of thing that sparks millions of users to create a Yelp account, Lieber took full advantage of his access to one of the most powerful food sections in the country to tell his version of the story. Because let's face it, most people would rather take the time to vent about bad service than go on-and-on about a great moment in their dining history.
But I digress.
Leiber's account of the event yesterday—though compelling—made me suspect of the man writing the story. Who was this guy thinking he could storm into the kitchen and teach-that-son-of-a-bitch lesson? What exactly does a finance reporter know about the inner workings of a professional kitchen? Granted, screaming at an employee in the middle of service isn't the best way to manage one's staff, but that doesn't mean a guest has the right to tell off a chef while he's working what sort of behaviors he will or will not tolerate.
I've worked in restaurants for over 15 years, and I have never seen a guest enter the kitchen to berate the chef–and live to tell about it.
"Either you've worked in the restaurant business and get this, or you don't," wrote Susannah Breslin, a former waitress and journalist for True/Slant.com . "No one but the most self-entitled jerk of a customer walks into the kitchen."
Though I am loathe to come out and say pointedly negative things about customers on this blog, I would have to agree with Breslin's point. A customer who enters the sacred heart of a restaurant without invitation–and with the goal to demand certain actions from the chef–is, as the kids say it, cruisin' for a bruising.
Restaurant guests, regardless of how opinionated they are, aren't in charge of the restaurant. They are financial contributors. Yes, money talks. But money does not choose the décor, decide on ingredients, pick out the play-list, or hire the employees. Restaurant owners, chefs, and managers do that. Customers make their opinions known via sales (and customer feedback cards, and phone calls…).
So what have we learned? Well the first thing is, don't even think that this recent incident gives the dining public the license to barge into their favorite kitchen and give the chef a piece of their mind. Be warned, the men and women working in kitchens are humans on the edge—they're hungry, tired, and quick to fight—and are armed with sharp knives, fire, and all sorts of torture—I mean cooking—utensils.
Woe to the next Lieber-type that dares step into the kitchen. Chefs around the country are on notice that you may be coming and, most likely, won't let you get away with just a verbal warning. Stay away from the kitchen. Customers are welcome to offer their positive and negative feedback in a more safe environment–via email and intermediaries like managers.

On November 8th and 9th, about 1,500 folks from the blogging industry descended on Las Vegas for the first annual "Blog World Expo." BricaBox was there as an exhibitor -- one of perhaps 50 -- and launched our platform there. The following are my thoughts on the conference and the time we had there: We're on our way back from Las Vegas -- at 30,000 with our friends at JetBlue, eating peanut-schwag provided by fellow exhibitors, the bloggers at Southwest Airlines -- and I'm just now able to reflect on the past two whirlwind days of launching BricaBox, meeting new people, and seeing the Las Vegas sights.
For Kyle and me, the conference started off on a fun note. On our way to the expo hall, the morning of our launch, we're ran into Wordpress founder Matt Mullenweg, lost as all could be, 5 minutes before he was going to give the keynote address. Now, we thought running into him on launch day was a good omen, considering our pitch is "blogs can't do everything;" anyway, as we escorted the king of blogs (including this one) to the expo hall, we told him about our plans to make a dent in the web publishing world. And according to Allen he may have listened: admitting in his keynote that blogging platforms have a long way to go.
On the exhibition floor, we set up shop next to AdaptiveBlue. This was a lot of fun, especially because Fraser and I had been corresponding for a few months, and it's always good to hang out with "internet friends" in real life. It was also nice to be next to friends because there was a lot of downtime on the expo floor. In fact, many of the exhibitors, including myself, noticed (and complained) that the majority of folks visiting booths were other exhibitors. While that leads to good networking and partnership opportunities (people love "integrating" with publishing platforms, it seems, so we had a lot of these types of visitors), expos are designed for consumer interactions, and there was a huge lack of them (probably due to the location of the event itself).
Outside of the expo hall, however, I had a lot of fun and made some great friends. Alex Hillman was in town, and on both nights we hanged out with him and Willo, of Willotoons (check out her shirts here!). I also found myself kicking it with Gabe Rivera a lot. I think our shared propensity to talk %&@$ about the blogging community -- at Blog World Expo, mind you -- provided much of the fuel for this friendship. As Jeremiah Owyang overheard Gabe telling me (in the context of his Twitter background, and with that one big wink he always seems to be talking to people with), he sees TechMeme at a lion "tearing the guts out of bloggers," including me, considering he put innonate "on notice" for possible purging from the TM index.
Another person I had fun hanging out with was Frank Gruber, from Somewhat Frank (Gabe calls it "Simply Frank" to -- very effectively -- piss him off). Frank and I tried to connect back in October, when our mutual friend Tracy Sheridan used the Introductions app on Facebook to connect us, while both traveling in San Francisco. Now in Vegas, we had time to hang out after the Weblogs Awards in the Hard Rock Cafe. In fact, it was Frank who seridipdously pulled me into the Full Access lounge, where I met Jeremiah (someone I have to write about later, but who's already expressed enthusiasm for BricaBox).
Also on the "Facebook me!" list were Gavin (last name?) and Alex Rudloff from emurse. At first I got to know them in their BlogSmith roles in the AOL booth. Then I partied up the strip with them. Finally, on the last day, we got to chat for a while in the conference hall. They have a ton of experience with startups and I really appreciated Alex's tips on building community early on. We also spoke a little about Charlie and Alex Lines' Path101, which the emurse fellas are "watching very closely," especially considering Fred Wilson's investment (who they like a lot from the Weblogs, Inc. days). Lastly, we talked about different tech scenes across the US. They're in Orlando, which is within spitting distance of a number of top engineering school, making it both cheap and easy to find excellent talent. However, their Tech Meetups haven't reached critical mass yet, like ours has, and they don't have their own gossipy/shit-stirring blogs, which is also a critical component of creating a viable tech scene, we agreed.
Todd Earwood is another dude I had great conversations with. I recognized him at The Conversation Group's party immediately, since he had posted my name on his blog and I had checked it out. With Todd, I remembered how much I have in common with, and get along with, folks from the tri-state-area (OH-KY-IN, not NYC). Todd and his partners are in Louisville, which is pretty close to my hometown of Cincinnati, and we talked about the merits of being a startup in the middle of America versus in NYC or the Valley (he and partner Rob May, of Business Pundit, write Outside the Valley). They've had to outsource their technical, and this is certainly one of my biggest fears of being anywhere but NYC or the Valley, because it's so valuable for me to be in the same room as Kyle and the folks we hire to work on BricaBox. Other folks I spent some QT with: Stephanie Agresta and Chis Heuer of The Conversation Group; Jason Falls of Social Media Explorer (also business partners with Todd and Rob); Damien from MindTouch; and many more, I'm sure.
In a nutshell, it's my take that the exhibitors were a bit shortchanged and nickel-and-dimed, but that going to the conference was overall a good decision for us, and that I will go back next year... hopefully as a speaker, since we do offer a unique perspective on the future of personal web publishing. Anyway, it's my suggestion that if conference staff wants to see any of the same exhibitors again, they should offer deep discounts in recognition of us propping up this first try. And also let me be clear: this first try was a success, even considering some headliners backed out. I just think that the people who propped it up should be recognized next year.
I would also suggest that Las Vegas is a bad place for this. A better populated city would draw the "real users" exhibitors are really looking for.

Executive Order to Rescind Clean Power Plan Is an Affront to Human Health: American Thoracic Society
Article ID: 671997

Newswise — Studies show that climate change is real, it is affecting our world and it is having a direct impact on public health, today. The available science clearly illustrates how human health is harmed by heat waves, forest fires, extreme weather events and other consequences of carbon pollution. Respiratory physicians of the American Thoracic Society are seeing first-hand how climate change hurts the respiratory health of children and adults, and we are deeply concerned.
President Trump's decision to revoke policy designed to respond to the immediate threat posed by climate change is an affront to human health. We call upon the President to examine the overwhelming scientific evidence and recognize that climate change is an urgent domestic and global health crisis that the U.S. must address.
