Nationals MPs Thomas George and Chris Gulaptis are pleased with the introduction of a new livestock loading scheme aimed at increasing freight productivity and generating jobs in the NSW meat and livestock industry.
"This reform lifts livestock transport and loading in NSW to a competitive playing field with schemes long-used in other states; notably by our key competitors in Queensland.
"I have been involved for over 16 years with the NSW meat and livestock industry asking successive State Labor governments for a scheme to allow it to transport comparable weights with other states, and for 16 years these industry pleas fell on deaf ears.
"This announcement is the single biggest policy the Government has announced for the meat and livestock industry so far," Mr George said.
The new scheme will allow more productive weights for livestock trucks, but will 'cap' truck loads to Higher Mass Limits (HML).
This means a B-double carrying livestock will be able to operate at up to 68 tonnes (or HML), as opposed 62.5 tonnes for General Mass Limits (GML) or 64.5 tonnes for Concessional Mass Limits (CML).
In NSW, a B-double truck can currently carry 56 to 60 head of cattle (depending on average animal weight) while in neighbouring states the same truck may carry between 66 to 72 cattle.
Eligible vehicles fitted with certified road-friendly suspension can now operate at higher mass limits when carrying cattle, sheep, pigs or goats in NSW.
Industry estimates the current NSW rules add an extra 15 per cent to freight costs (or about $8 for each animal) and results in extra truck movements on NSW roads.
"This reform will help improve the economic viability of the state's meat and livestock supply chain and reduce freight costs for NSW farmers, livestock carriers, abattoirs, feedlots and sale yards; not to mention reducing the number of trucks on the road.
"Thomas and I have had numerous discussions with local operators and carriers, including the Northern Co-operative Meat Company, and this will be a well received change.
"On average, for every B-double truck operating at a higher mass limit you can reduce the number of semi-trailer movements on the road by nearly 40 per cent," Mr Gulaptis said.
The new scheme has been developed in conjunction with Roads and Maritime Services (RMS), NSW Local Government and Shires Association, the Livestock and Bulk Carriers Association of NSW and the NSW Farmers Association.

By Tamara Patten, Communications Officer, National Services Te Paerangi
During July, I travelled to Auckland to attend NetHui, a conference about all things internet. As National Services Te Paerangi has just developed a new website, and since building digital capacity in the museum sector is something we're particularly focused on, off I went to see what I could learn and bring back to share with the museum sector.
And learn I did. In the interest of brevity I'll cover my two top NetHui sessions (but if you're interested learning in more, collective notes for each conference session are available on the Nethui website).
Making online content accessible
On the first day, Jason Kiss from DIA and Neil Jarvis of the Blind Foundation delivered a thought-provoking presentation on online accessibility. Neil demonstrated his screen reader, and talked about ways websites can be arranged to make them more accessible for blind people. Top tips:
- links and headings should be clearly worded to allow effective use of the screen reader
- graphics and images should also be well described.
Radio NZ's website was held up as a good example of an accessible site, with well described links and images.
If you're developing a new online project, the best approach is to make access a priority at the very beginning of your development. So often, access considerations are tacked on as an afterthought, making them less effective. The Blind Foundation has resources and staff that can advise on ways to make your website more accessible – learn more on their website.
Of course, accessibility issues are not restricted to the blind community. Physical disabilities, deafness and cognitive disabilities need to be considered. And access issues extend to other communities as well – people may be prevented from accessing your content due to cultural, generational or linguistic barriers. Arts Access Aotearoa has a broad range of resources covering accessibility which are useful for museums and galleries. Check out 'Arts For All' on their website.
Online communities
Another interesting session was one dedicated to online communities. National Services Te Paerangi's new website, All That Remains, is an online community which allows museums and galleries to showcase their WWI-related collections, so I was eager for more ideas about making the site successful long term. Key points out of this session were:
- succession planning – the importance of writing a good plan for whoever looks after your online community next
- delegation – projects are more successful long term if responsibilities are shared
- build a community of communities – managers of online communities can provide support for each other.
My next job is to get in touch with some of the online community managers I met at the conference to talk about how we can share ideas and help each other out.
My thanks to InternetNZ and Catalyst for granting me the fellowship which allowed me to attend NetHui. I really appreciated the opportunity.

thirtysomething: The Complete Third Season
Published May 21, 2010By the time the third season of thirtysomething had rolled around, things had settled down into a groove, something that was both good and bad. It was good because it meant that the new characters, including the initially hated Susannah, were more integrated into the original cast. But it was bad because at this point there was a certain amount of staleness to the show, causing a move away from the mundane nature of the previous seasons. This translates into more dramatic storylines that didn't exactly come across as desperate, but it suggests the writers were getting short on ideas. Or at least shorter than before. That means a new baby, cancer and some more affairs were thrown into the mix, although things still progress slowly enough that thirtysomething thankfully didn't become one of those shows with a different issue each week. When it came to the two main couples, however, everything was status quo. Elliot and Nancy got back together after last season's divorce and even got remarried by the end of this season. Plus, Michael and Elliot's work life is again dominated with takeover bids and other behind-the-scene shenanigans, usually instigated by the wonderfully manipulative Miles. While Susannah wasn't so bad when she was talking to the other women, Gary and Susannah together as a couple are still dull and almost unwatchable. Fortunately Melissa's still around to provide some lighter relief through her failed relationships, which are never as bleak as Ellyn's. It's a mixed bag of a season, but there are still enough good bits to prevent it from hitting the inevitable shark-jumping moment. But at this point, the only people watching the show were those that loved it and would forgive anything, so the fact that it made it back for a fourth season was quite remarkable. While Shout! Factory has been good at making sure that each season comes out on schedule, they're getting less ambitious when it comes to extras. This time, there are commentary tracks by various cast and writers on seven episodes, plus a brief, newly recorded introduction by the show's creators ― Edward Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz ― and that's it. Hopefully they have something more ambitious in mind for the fourth and final season. (Shout! Factory)

My husband and I have three children. Children? Well, grown and married children. They've given us the great opportunity to travel by living in states other than our own! Our kids are our favorite people in the world, and we've been blessed with amazingly good relationships, so even though we're apart, we try to keep involved in each others' lives however we can. Our dream is that some day they will all find themselves living in the same state, and then we will join them when we retire. 🙂
Recently, my house was full – my son will soon be entering an MBA program at a University in the United Kingdom, so he and my daughter-in-law will be there for the next year. How exciting for them! And, like most parents, we get to live vicariously through them! haha! In the meantime, we get to store much of what was in their apartment in our house. Yay! 😉
Jess and Anand were able to free up their schedule to come to NJ to say good-bye to them!
We brought Brian and Jenny to the airport – how do you pack for a whole year?!
There they are – B & J and 200 pounds of luggage!
Bye! Love you! I pray God's protection and provision and blessing on your year!
(A mom's heart – thanks for letting me get that out!)
While everyone was here, our eating habits were quite different from normal – waayyy more relaxed! Bagels, a lot of coffee, must-have pizza from Attilio's. I even ate that in spite of being off gluten for 3-4 months. I did make an almond flour blueberry cake for after dinner one night. Fail! But it looked so pretty in the picture! The next morning I baked it for another hour-and-a-half. It was better after that.
No more bagels! It's back to green smoothies! I try to have a green smoothie for breakfast every morning. I've gotten it down to a science now and have developed one that is my favorite that I'd like to share with you. It's not overly sweet and has a clean, crisp taste. Mmm, refreshing!
I usually start with greens and a piece of cucumber. Then I add a variety of flavorings and nutritional enhancements. Here's what I use and why…
(For more extensive information about each ingredient, just click where it's written in blue.)
Greens – I try to keep green leafy vegetables as the foundation of my smoothie. Kale is my favorite green to use, but you could also use Swiss chard, spinach or collard greens. Mix it up – buy a different one every week. Dark green leafy vegetables are nutritional powerhouses! They are sources of vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and fiber. More specifically, they have calcium potassium, Vitamin C, lutein, zeaxanthin, beta-carotene (which converts to Vitamin A), folate, and Vitamins E and K. Whew!
Cucumbers – Three types of phytonutrients in cucumbers are cucurbitacins, lignans, and flavonoids. These provide us with valuable antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer benefits.
Blueberries – Low calorie and low glycemic with high antioxidant value, fresh or frozen, blueberries have earned their place as a valuable fruit to enjoy daily.
Lemon – Vitamin C is vital to a strong immune system. From neutralizing free radicals to fighting infection, Vitamin C from fresh lemons is a great daily addition to our diet.
Plain Yogurt – I make my own yogurt at home, because I read once that its medicinal property is greatly increased when it's extremely fresh. Also, it just tastes a lot better! Smooth, creamy, and no ingredients except milk and yogurt. (I'll post how I do it in a future blog.) Yogurt is rich in protein, calcium, and B vitamins, but more unique is its probiotic value. Research has shown that increased yogurt consumption may enhance our immunity.
4-Seed Mix – I keep a jar in my freezer of equal amounts of milled flaxseed, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and unhulled sesame seeds. These provide Omega-3 essential fatty acids, protein, minerals and fiber.
Green powder – This is optional, but I have a powdered blend of I think 15 ingredients (mostly greens – barley grass, wheat grass, spirulina, etc.), and I use just a teaspoon of it to add even more minerals to my smoothie. When I'm out of greens, I'll use a whole tablespoon in place of the fresh greens.
Ginger, Turmeric, Cinnamon – I used a small amount of each of these for their anti-inflammatory value.
Stevia – Stevia is my zero-calorie sweetener of choice. From all I've read, it seems to be the safest out there.
Vanilla – I don't know what it is about vanilla, but when I leave it out, I know it.
Now to put it all together –
1/2-1 c plain yogurt
1/2 c water
2 large kale leaves, washed and torn
1/3 cucumber, peeled if not organic
1 rounded teaspoon green powder
1/2 t powdered ginger (or 1/2″ fresh, sliced)
1/2 t turmeric
3/4 – 1 t cinnamon
1/4 t stevia
1 T 4-seed mix
1 t pure vanilla extract
1/4 – 1/2 lemon, peeled and seeded
1/2 c frozen blueberries
1/2 small banana (optional)
1-2 trays of "thin" ice cubes
Put all ingredients except ice cubes in a high-powered blender in order listed. Press "whole juice" and let run through complete cycle until completely pulverized. Taste and adjust for sweetness. If the taste is too strong, add another 1/4 to 1/2 cup water. Add ice cubes, then press "smoothie" and let run through complete cycle. Pour into large tumbler and serve with straw.
Made with 1/2 c yogurt and 1/2 small banana, the entire almost one quart of smoothie is only about 200 calories!
Take your time sipping this throughout your morning. It's filling without weighing you down and should leave you feeling energized!

Salud! Cheers! One, two, threee..¡Tequila ¡ The Making of Tequila in Mexico
By Alfie D'Souza, Illinois [ Published Date: October 3, 2014 ]
"One Tequila..Two Tequila..Three Tequila…Floor! – that's right, when you had a few shots of Tequila you'll most probably find yourself on the floor. Like when you are in Goa, many of you may not go back home without buying one or two bottles of Goa's very own "Feni", similarly when you are in Mexico, you surely want to take back home one or few of the best "tequila" available there. When you refer to Mexico, it is impossible not to mention "Tequila". For Mexicans, besides being an essential part of their culture, it is the drink of choice in all parties and reunions and a "must have" drink for those visiting this country.
Even though Tequila comes from the Jalisco Region in Mexico, you will find a great place in Guanajuato. During my trip to Mexico few years back, I toured places like Mexico City, Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, and off course, Guanajuato-the land of Agave and "tequila". Guanajuato and its tequila tradition goes hand-in-hand.The tequila, Mexico's traditional beverage par excellence, is also produced in Guanajuato, since this state is also part of the designation of origin area where the Tequilana Weber blue agave is grown and harvested.
During my tour at Tequilera Corralejo – a tequila making factory I discover the process that hides behind a shot of tequila, from the harvest of the agave, the jima, its fermentation and distillation. And southwestern Guanajuato is the perfect place to expand your knowledge about this beverage, since it is there where you will find the must-see tequila wineries located around the city of Penjamo. Coexist with the producers and tour, with them, the blue agave plantations where you will be able to become a jimator for one day, and separate the pineapple from which the tequila originates, from the agave stalk.
During the tour at the tequila factory, you will find a large variety of tequila flavors for sale plus they offer a very interesting class where a tequila expert tells you everything you need to know about this fun drink, Tequila. From the blue agave, the plant where it is extracted, to the aging process this drink goes through until it is distilled and ready. Since in most cases after the theory you must then practice, the tasting experience begins soon after the class is over. The tasting includes many different types of Tequila including Tequila desert flavors. You taste up to 9 different tequila flavors including "White tequila", "tequila añejo", "Raspberry shot" etc…You have to try them all! Some of them are a real treat…like having candy.
While I enjoyed all the drinks, I must confess that my favorite was definitely the one the person in charge of the tasting (Fernando), drew a triple decker, which consists of coffee tequila liqueur, almond, caramel and "Tequila Reposado", besides the fact that I'm a coffee lover, this drink had a touch of sweet that all the women love. And trust me, by the end of this tour I was seeing stars in the broad daylight?
Here I explain some of the details I learned during my visit to this place: Currently in Mexico, tequila production is still done in the traditional way; The tequila is a registered mark of origin, which legally protects the original producers against producers from other areas who want to copy the process in a lower quality; It takes between 7 and 8 years to produce a bottle of tequila, and thereafter begins the process of aging in oak barrels to form different types: Reposed, Aged and extra Aged.
Ah, now the million-dollar question… How is tequila made? You might be a tequila drinker, but chances are you are not a true tequila aficionado. The difference? Anyone can drink tequila, but not everyone knows what it takes to make it. So how is tequila made? If you've taken the time to research how tequila is made, I say you're awesome. If that's not your case, however, you're still awesome… you just have some quick learning to do!
What is tequila?
Tequila is an alcoholic drink produced with blue Weber agave. This agave plant is also known as weberi agave, weber agave, and agave tequilana (its scientific name). Agaves from the Highlands produce sweet and frutal tequilas, while agaves from the Lowlands are more herbaceous in nature. This becomes evident in the liquor's aroma and taste. It has a denomination of origin which limits production to 5 Mexican states: Jalisco, Nayarit, Tamaulipas, Michoacán and Guanajuato. The Consejo Regulador del Tequila (CRT for short) is the entity responsible for enforcing laws and regulating all tequila products.
A similar Mexican drink, mezcal, also uses agave. Mezcal can be produced anywhere in Mexico and is subject to different regulations than tequila. An aficionado will also recognize that mezcal has a different, usually harsher flavor. In short, all tequila is mezcal, but not all mezcal is tequila. Now on to our question: how is tequila made? The Production involves 6 basic steps:
Planting and Harvesting
The process begins with the jima, the harvest, and the jimadores, those responsible for growing and eventually harvesting the agave. Producers may have their own agave, but most choose to buy it from growers. The plant is left to grow 8 to 10 years, enough time for agave to produce honey within its piña (I'll call it "pina" for all you gringos… You're welcome!). Jimadores will then use a coa, a tool used for centuries, to extract the pina and clear it of leaves and thorns.
Cooking and Milling
The pinas will be weighed, cut up in halves or quarters, and cooked. The traditional method takes pinas and places them in hornos, or cooking ovens. The modern method involves using steel pressure cookers called autoclaves. The latter approach cooks the pinas faster. Fortunately, flavor doesn't vary with either process. Agave is cooked to transform starches into sugars, which will then become transform into alcohol. To extract the agua miel, or honey water, the cooked fruit passes through grinding blades. Fibers are sprayed with water, ensuring all sugars are released. Leftover fibers, known as bagazo, are generally used as fertilizer for agave fields.
The juices are now ready to be fermented. This is each tequila starts to acquire its unique taste and classification. If the producer wants 100% agave tequila, then the juice passes straight to fermentation vessels. However, if he wants mixto tequila (non-100% agave tequila), then the agua miel must be placed in formulation tanks. Sugarcane or molasses sugar are then added to the juice. Only then can the mixto be placed in fermentation vessels.
Now's the time alcohol begins to appear (finally!). Producers will introduce yeasts. These can either be chemical catalysts or natural ingredients. The tanks are lightly heated and carbon dioxide is released, giving the agave juice 5% alcohol content per volume. Is this how tequila is made…? Not yet, but we're getting close.
The mosto, or fermented agave juice, is finally ready for distillation. The juice will be heated to alcohol's vaporization point and then cooled and condensed to create ordinario (ordinary in English). You could try to drink this ordinario, but chances are you'd be blinded and intoxicated afterwards! That is why Mexican law requires all tequila to be distilled twice. The mosto can be distilled three or even four times for top-shelf tequila.
The first distillation will remove all "heads" and "tails", the first and last portions of the distilled product. These contain bad alcohols and other impurities, which is why they must be discarded in favor of a quality (and safe) drink. A second distillation determines the percent of alcohol the tequila will have. Premium tequila will aim for 40% alcohol per volume or 80 proof; a bulk, mixto, or lower quality spirit instead aims for 55% alcohol per volume or 110 proof, which will be later diluted with purified water.
Following along? Good… We finally have tequila! Tequila blanco, to be precise. A blanco is agave in its purest alcohol form (it's also known as plata and silver tequila). Finally, something we can drink! But this blanco can still be worked with. Reposado and añejo tequila can be obtained from a blanco (again, let's make it easy on your eyes and call it "anejo").
To do so, silver tequila is aged in barrels. Reposados use redwood or oak barrels, while anejos almost exclusively use Kentucky bourbon barrels (I've also heard of former cognac barrels being used for anejo). A reposado will age from 2 to 12 months; an anejo from 1 to 3 years; and a new, recently regulated extra anejo will age for over 3 years. The more time the liquor spends within a barrel, the more color and tannins the final product will have.So you have it – How is tequila made? It's made by harvesting, cooking, fermenting, distilling, and aging the blue agave. This final product (blanco, reposado or añejo) is ready to be drinked.
So you have it – How is tequila made? It's made by harvesting, cooking, fermenting, distilling, and aging the blue agave. This final product (blanco, reposado or añejo) is ready to be drinked.
The beverage is pretty much ready to be consumed. However, there are rules regarding how and where tequila can be bottled. All 100% agave tequila must be labeled and sealed in Mexico. Non-100% agave tequila, or mixtos, can either be bottled in Mexico or in the U.S.
Wrapping things up…And that, ladies and gentlemen, answers the million-dollar "how is tequila made" question. Now you can show off your new tequila knowledge at your next party- if Tequila is one of the alcohol there. Happy drinking!

As have many families, ours came to Christian Science through the experience of Christ's healing power. A co-worker suggested my grandfather try Christian Science, and it restored his failing eyesight.
Growing up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I attended an active Sunday School. One summer, in Junior High, while reading through Science and Health, I gained a deepening sense of God's gentle presence, love and care of each of us as His precious children. This was a turning point. My grades, friendships, and joy of life really blossomed, as did my love of Christian Science. Many wonderful healings followed: asthma, allergies, back problems, foot sores, digestive trouble, and protective guidance throughout those teenage years.
Not long after college, Sunday School pupils and friends began asking me for prayerful help. I discovered the great joy of helping others find healing through the practice of Christian Science.
After a brief career in broadcasting, I came to work for The Mother Church in radio, television, and computers. And later I served as Committee on Publication for the Internet. Throughout this time, I continued to take calls, and maintain an office as a Christian Science practitioner.
While in Boston, I met and married my wonderful wife Valerie. We later moved to Philadelphia to raise a family and further establish our full-time healing practice. In 2009, my love for the healing practice led me to become a teacher of Christian Science.

Mario Kart Tour Mobile Game Announcedon February 1, 2018 by Mitch Jay
Nintendo has just announced that the next series of theirs to get the mobile treatment is Mario Kart, with Mario Kart Tour releasing no later than March 2019. It's a little bit of a wait, but they've been on a roll lately with both console and mobile gaming, and it's sure to be a lovely little time sinker.
There's very little information outside of its announcement, but you can see the game's logo above. We're likely to hear more about it soon, and I look forward to seeing how the game is adapted for mobile.
I still play Fire Emblem Heroes daily, and now I'm glued to Square Enix's Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia, and I wouldn't be surprised if Mario Kart Tour cleanly drifts its way into my daily life someday.

David McLean Davis (born 8 April 1962) is an Australian politician. He has been a Liberal member of the Victorian Legislative Council since March 1996, representing East Yarra Province 1996-2006 (until it was abolished) and the Southern Metropolitan Region from 2006 onwards. He was state Minister for Health from 2010 to 2014 under Premiers Ted Baillieu and Denis Napthine.
Early career
Davis was born in Millicent, South Australia and studied in Melbourne, Victoria. He was educated at Kingswood College (Box Hill). He studied applied science at the Phillip Institute of Technology (now part of the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology). Davis also later studied philosophy at the University of Melbourne. He worked as a chiropractor and maintained a private practice until being elected to the Legislative Council in 1996.[1]
Political career
Davis had become involved with the Liberal Party during the early 1990s, serving as a delegate on several party committees, and acting as a delegate to the party's State Council between 1993 and 1995. This was to ultimately result in receiving preselection for the safe Liberal seat of East Yarra at the 1996 state election. After the Liberal Party's defeat at the 1999 state election, Davis became the Chair of the Opposition Waste Watch Committee. In this position, he was one of the Labor government's strongest critics, regularly making claims of perceived abuses.[citation needed] In 2000, he became the Parliamentary Secretary for Scrutiny of Government.[1]
Davis almost lost his seat of East Yarra in the 2002 election, but became Shadow Minister for Health, replacing Ron Wilson, who had lost his seat in the 2002 election. In September 2004 Davis announced that if elected, a Liberal government would ban smoking in pubs and clubs.[citation needed] This was followed by a decision from the state government weeks later to the same effect.[citation needed] Davis was often an opponent of Robert Doyle's leadership of the parliamentary Liberal Party.[citation needed] In 2005 Doyle transferred Davis to the lower-profile environment portfolio. In May 2006, after Doyles' resignation and replacement by Ted Baillieu, Davis was once again promoted and given Baillieu's former portfolio of planning.[1]
Following the 2006 election, Davis was again promoted by Baillieu to the position of Shadow Minister for State and Regional Development. In January 2008 he was elected Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council. Between February 2008 and November 2009, Davis was appointed as the Shadow Minister for Environment and Climate Change and in November 2009, he was appointed Shadow Minister for Health and Ageing, maintaining his responsibility for Scrutiny of Government.[1]

Multichannel Attribution & the Modern Digital Marketer
by Ryan DeShazer on Aug 31, 2:30 PM
Last week Forrester Research released its projections for the growth of the interactive marketing space through 2016. According to Forrester, $77 billion per year will be spent on digital marketing by that time, or roughly the equivalent of television advertising spends today. A few key observations from this research include:

301 Redirects: Implementing Your SEO 'Change of Address' Card
by Janet Driscoll Miller on Aug 30, 1:15 PM
If you're moving or renaming your page URLs or the directories those pages reside in, you'll need to do 301 redirects. 301 redirects are like a "change of address" card for the search engines -- they indicate that an existing page URL has moved and where the search engine can find it.

The Apple Standard
by Derek Gordon on Aug 29, 11:30 AM
When working with new clients on SEO strategies, one of the first things I do is deeply analyze the company website, from aesthetics to content quality, to all the technical bits that affect search rankings. Frequently, there's a decision to overhaul or completely redesign the site, and when preparing to do so I ask what brands a client admires most. Apple is invariably at the top of the list.

Google And The Great Wall
by Gord Hotchkiss on Aug 25, 1:15 PM
"Have you heard of Google?" This question was asked by a group of traveling Google product engineers who had just entered the rural Indian village of Ragihalli, thirty miles outside of Bangalore. It was a Google version of a "walkabout," a 2007 foray out into the world to see firsthand how Google was wrapping its ever-extending tentacles around the globe.

Nonprofits: Get Free Advertising From Google AdWords
by Janet Driscoll Miller on Aug 23, 11:45 AM
If you represent a nonprofit organization, I hope by now you've applied for a Google Grant for Google AdWords. Started in 2003, the Google Grant provides nonprofits with $10,000 or more of free clicks in the Google AdWords advertising platform. That equates to $120,000 or more of free advertising for each nonprofit organization each year! And for current Google Grant participants, there is another grant level, Grantspro, which awards even more grant money for advertising each month -- up to $480,000 per year!

Google's Sword Of Damocles?
by Derek Gordon on Aug 22, 12:15 PM
I love a good story of mystery and intrigue, especially when it involves something as mundane as search engine optimization. This story involves a reporter from
a Google salesguy, and the case of a missing news report.

The Social Search Column I Wish I'd Written
by Ryan DeShazer on Aug 19, 5:15 PM
In May, I wrote that "Social is the New Search," and articulated my thoughts on how the adoption and evolution of social media would have a profound impact on traditional search. In that piece, I questioned how Google could remain relevant in a socially-charged world and hypothesized that social channels (Facebook especially) would emerge as mainstream search's next logical destination.

In Defense Of Google
by Gord Hotchkiss on Aug 18, 10:30 AM
Michael Martinez, you are oh-so-wrong! Michael responded to Derek Gordon's column on Tuesday about the Google "Dog pile" with this rejoinder: "No market-dominant company ever gets to the top through 'quality of the service it provides' -- they get there through marketing, and Google has done PLENTY of that."

Social Relevance: Google+'s Algorithmic Implications On Networks
by Rob Garner on Aug 17, 2:45 PM
It has been over six weeks since the launch of Google+, and we are just now beginning to see the effects of what is to become Google's own proprietary social network, competing with the likes of Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Google has also done something incredible here that may ultimately leave their other social competitors strategically in the dust, and that is to build an effective human social layer that complements the depth of their technical domination in search

I have been living under my own weather system these past few weeks. The weather outside is pretty irrelevant. If anything, I prefer 'bad' weather because it is easier for me to feel ghastly when there is little else I could do but stay indoors. I find warm sunny days really hard to handle when my internal weather is on the dark rainy side. This is counter-intuitive: most people expect me to feel better when the sun is shining.
Feeling 'depressed' just because it is raining is a luxury I have never been able to afford. In truth, external events do not make me feel depressed: sad certainly, despondent often, discouraged occasionally, but depressed never. Depression for me has always been an internal state that occurs without any external reason. That's what makes it so challenging to accept.
Say that you are depressed to any 'normal' human being and the first question that comes at you is 'why?'. Believe me, you feel like a total twit when you hear yourself answering 'no reason'. The look on the other person's face varies from surprise to bewilderment: that answer doesn't make any sense. Irritating but true.
Only people who have suffered from clinical depression understand my reply. I know who they are straight away because they do not ask anything - they just say "I am sorry to hear that" and then they stay knowingly quiet. Sometimes I amuse myself thinking that we, the clinically depressed lot, belong to some underground society with its own language! Forget the secret handshake: how about that subtle look in the eyes and the faint smile that goes with it. We then know that the other knows.
What kind of an illness is it that can rob us of the most powerful instinct there is: our survival instinct? The word 'suicide' doesn't really hit home with most people but just think about it for a few seconds: self-destruction. How can that be?!? Human beings are known to achieve extreme external feats just to stay alive and we, the clinically depressed, have to achieve extreme internal feats just to stay un-dead! This illness is the world upside down and inside out......
On a lighter note, I have decided to give my internal weather warning a name: I call it Michael Fish. Yep, I have my very own little weatherman and he does a very good job of warning me of clouds ahead. Occasionally, he gets it spectacularly wrong (remember the storm of '87) but on the whole he does a pretty good job! These days, I don't just watch the weather forecast on TV - I also watch my internal forecast on my face. I have found that my eyes and my tongue (yes, you've read that right) are very good indicators of my general well-being. When my eyes get that dim quality and my tongue looks very pale, I know that my internal barometer is down. When my eyes are sparkly and my tongue is pink, I know that the sun is shining inside.
Today the sun is shining everywhere, inside and out. That's my favourite sort of weather but I have learnt to be happy with being at odds with what is going on in the world. I did say 'happy' and I meant it. I can now be happy even when I am depressed.
How about that for weathering the weather ....
I relate to this post and just want to say, since i can't give you the "look," that I'm a part of the underground society. :) Glad you are happily depressed! or, even better, HAPPY!

In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument
Home | Doo Wop | Barbershop | World | Contemporary | Christian | Vocal Jazz | Choral | Christmas | Instructional | Arrangements
This recording features a selection of pieces spanning over 400 years: from Thomas Tallis and Gregorio Allegri to Massive Attack (Teardrop) and Ben Folds (The Luckiest - which appeared on the soundtrack for Richard Curtis's film About Time). The album title 'Lux' refers to the Latin word 'light,' which has inspired composers throughout history with the meaning of hope, banishing darkness, and nurturing both the body and the spirit. Voces8's celestial performances on the album prove how few can better evoke the power of light in all its physical, spiritual and mystical guises than the timeless sound of a choir.

Bellanwila Wimalaratana Thera hospitalizedPublished : 10:47 am February 4, 2018 | No comments so far | |
(357)reads |
By Chaturanga Samarawickrama,
Muditha Dayananda and H.M Darmapala
The Ven. Bellanwila Wimalaratana Thera was admitted to the Kalubowila Hospital after he was injured in an alleged attack by the temple's tusker.
A spokesman for the Bellanwila Rajamaha Viharaya said the Thera was found lying near the elephant either having slipped while feeding the elephant in the morning or pushed aside by it.
The monk was rushed to the hospital by the devotees who were present in temple at the time. The devotees were concerned that the fall might have broken some of his ribs.
Meanwhile, Kalubowila Hospital sources said they were still not certain whether the elephant had attacked the monk, who was later transferred to a private hospital.

To the Editor:
While the Tri-Cities and state of Virginia are debating and discussing Gov. Bob McDonnell's education plan, his voter photo ID legislation, school closures, restoration of felons rights, the new pope, annual confederate history program, hate crime in Chesterfield, the new "Jim Crow" for African-Americans, etc., outside of our area there are some different topics being discussed which impact all African-Americans and Latinos.
The information below also validate where Ted Cruz, Michele Bachmann,
Rand Paul, Reince Priebus, and FOX receive their right-wing conspiracy theories that is used for racist attacks on President Obama.
(1) In a famously conservative town that is home to the nation's biggest concentration of Christian right organizations, rabid Florida pastor Terry Jones, whose televised burning of Korans set off riots overseas that left several people dead, claimed that he didn't hate Muslims at all - and then went on to rant that Islam "makes Nazism, fascism look like charity."
He was joined by other "conservatives" who warned that the universities are brimming with "commies," that all liberals are evil, that President Obama only won re-election through "massive voter fraud," and that the president's health care plan is "Marxism to the core." Dinesh D'Souza told attendees, in effect, to get over Reagan and turn to the tasks at hand - battling the media (wholly "liberal" since Richard Nixon, he argued), all museums (they're "liberal," too) and "95 percent" of elite universities (whose professors, D'Souza said, are "anti-American"). "Obamaism" is theft, he said, the president does not care about the country, and in any case is aiding Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood (Hatewatch SPLC March 25, 2013).
(2) The number of antigovernment "Patriot" groups on the American radical right hit an all-time high in 2012, the fourth straight year of explosive growth. The conspiracy-minded Patriot groups, which numbered only 149 in 2008, soared over the first four years of Barack Obama's presidency to 1,360 in 2012 - an astounding 813 percent increase. At the same time hate groups remained at near-record levels of over 1,000. The resurgence of militias and other Patriot groups over recent years caused SPLC President Richard Cohen to write U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano: "As in the period before the [1995] Oklahoma City bombing," Cohen wrote, "we are now seeing ominous threats from those who believe that the government is poised to take their guns."
The resurgence of the Patriot movement has largely been a reaction to the election of the nation's first black president in 2008 - and the demographic change, including the loss of the country's white majority predicted for 2043. (New SPLC report by Mark Potok March 5, 2013).
