In regards to an official Classic server, I think the timing is right to bring the curtain down for a while. One reaction could be to get bitter or enraged with Nexon but instead I choose to celebrate this moment. To mark the occasion, I will be having a forum party thread where the theme is Legacy Maplestory. This will not merely be a Pikamemnon thread but the ultimate Pikamemnon thread! Its gonna be huge, there will be balloons, cake, furries, events, cosplayers, ponies, magicians, clowns, mimes and anything that can be imagined which could fit into a convention center. They call me Pikamemnon and I will be your host, so without further ado let the festivities begin!
Seriously, Nexon should just hire me to be the ambassador and President of Classic Maplestory. (I would be so good at that job) I have to do stuff in this thread later on so if anyone wants to skip ahead, I won't hold it against them. For starters I would picture a space that resembles the Malaysia Fantasy theme park. (Codys theme park?) If you are up to date with One Piece then thinking of something almost as extravagant as Big moms wedding would also be appropriate. (no spoilers please!) I am going to take you folks around the festival briefly and visit a few attractions.
First up is a Nexon bashing tent. It seems to be not much more than a Nexon shaped pinata mini game with a stick. The line for this is really, really long. Earlier I talked with some people waiting in line and strangely enough, most of them do not have specific feedback that they would like delivered. Apparently the pinata mini game is just fun for some reason. If you look over to the side there is a fenced area filled with horses. (a horse doctor explains why these animals are special) Thanks to consulting an expert by the name of Starlight Glimmer and the power of science, these horses have been bred to be completely immortal! Additionally they have been taught how to Play dead. No matter how many times they are "beaten to death" they will never ever die and feel no pain what so ever!
As a matter of fact, our special horses became so smart that we decided to pay them for their time and efforts here today. Part of the idea for the unkillable horses came from the gameplay in Maplestory. Players slay lots and lots of mobs but the monsters always reappear, smiling and ready for more. Could the mobs in the game be immortal and only pretend to die? Or could there be another universe where monsters log in to their own version of Maplestory and try to defeat the evil humans? Or perhaps its all just because of magic?
Thank you horse doctor, I believe that a fruit cocktail table is setup someplace but they mostly only have pomegranate dishes and desserts. I requested peaches but its 50/50 if they will make it in time. (I know the swear filter changes the meaning of that but IRL I really do like peaches)
Alright everyone this brings us to the center stage. (outdoors) Notice that the actors are finishing a dramatic re-enactment of a scene from Harry Potter. People say Magical girl but does it sound odd to say Magical boy? I think wizard does sound a little better. Ok, I have to go get ready for the next show about Classic Maplestory so I am going to leave all of you with this trustworthy looking person who is standing nearby.
(the camera gets handed to a furry in a costume)
(the furry delivers the camera safely to a great viewing spot for the stage)
It waves goodbye before leaving, that was a very reliable furry.
An awesome silence grips the crowd as the narrator (it's me) begins to speak.
I am about ready to take a break from having involvement in trying to get an official Classic server but before that there are a few more things that I wanted to say. First I want to thank all the players on Pizza slices, the players on the regular servers, the trolls, Nexon and also all the agents of Nexon. By learning about the opinions of all these different groups it has helped me to define and forge my point of view on the game. If I had one more chance to speak with Nexon about this, I would try to remove any barriers that could impede a Classic server for them. I may not have flawless knowledge but I can make some scientific estimates according to what I have learned from others.
(Battle begins, dramatic music plays)
Potential barrier #1: There is no need for an Official server because Pizza slices exist.
Lets be real, a faceless corporation like Nexon is probably never going to be able to match the one to one attention from a small server. But I think that Nexon does not need to either. Nexon should just be Nexon and do what it can. It is disingenuous to claim that there should not be an official Classic server because of Pizza slices. That would be like claiming anybody can cook a hamburger on the street because the sun made it warm. Since roads can get hot due to the sun, this statement almost sounds reasonable but most people can tell that this is not a viable answer with enough due diligence. Maybe it could work under extremely special circumstances but not normally. Pizza slices and an Official server would exist in different worlds, there might be some similarities but ultimately they would be different and unique in their own ways. Which is not to endorse either but only that the existence of one should not prevent the existence of the other.
(scene ends)
(Battle begins, epic and dramatic music plays)
Potential barrier #2: An Official Classic server would cost too much and would not be "worth it".
I have a confession to make. Almost all of the times I talked about bringing back Classic Maplestory, there was also something else I was trying to revive. You could call it similar to hero worship but the other one I have been trying to bring back was Nexon. You are probably thinking that Nexon is still alive and that nothing happened to it. Well I'm referring to the Pre Big bang, younger Nexon, I guess you could say. The part of Nexon that took a chance in brining Maplestory overseas when there was no guarantee of success. The Nexon that allowed players to get trapped at the bottom of Eos tower and the one that opened New Leaf city. Sure Nexon is still around but it has changed, time has done things to Nexon.
The Maplestory and the Nexon that I knew when I first met (for lack of a better word) them had constructed a fascinating world. I am not going to say it was a perfect world of equality but it was a place where free and paying players could seamlessly adventure side by side. I had never heard of the term "Whale" in Maplestory until sometime after Big bang. If a newcomer were to ask about whales then what can be said? "If I become a whale then does that mean I win the game?" I don't know how to answer that, I don't know kid. I'm not sure that anyone knows anymore. Would everyone be a whale if they could? This is a strange question for the game. Had Maplestory morphed into Moby plantain story?
Going back to the early days inside of this fantasy world that was real but also not real. In Maplestory it was ok to die from monsters and it was ok to learn about gambling with scrolls because it was a simulated environment. Which meant a player could lose big time or do something dumb but still be ok IRL. (probably depends on a persons spending habits back then but this is still mostly true for all intents and purposes) I would say the early Maplestory could have passed as a tool for both education and entertainment. Not simply keeping players busy but also teaching them lessons and making people smarter. The brain melting grind served to help players realize when enough was enough but at the same time, it provided a mental obstacle for the truly dedicated to try and overcome if they so dared. (a little like playing with a hot potato)
The way I see Nexon and Maplestory today are two things that have lost their way a bit. (though its still a matter of opinion) Maplestory was a game that had transcended the sum of its parts and had become something more. If you have seen my other threads then I think you have an idea of how I feel about the current direction of Nexon and the game. They didn't used to be like this, so I hope everyone remembers to try and not be too hard on them. I have seen many wishes for Classic Maplestory to return. Even if its not possible to brute force the dream to come true, we can still remember the good times and pass along the baton for the next person.
The flame of Classic Maple will never go out so in that sense an official server is not needed. However it would still be nice to have so that newer players would get a chance to test their mettle or for older and wiser players to get another shot. Maple rule number 1, the game is a grind fest. Anything that does not acknowledge this fact is plainly denying the true nature of Maplestory. I can appreciate that Nexon added new variations of grinding but I do not think it should be impossible to imagine that some players just want the original flavor.
The real question is, if it would cost a lot then wouldn't an official Classic server not be worth the trouble? It is a mark of wisdom to consider the risk and possible uncertainty so I will give some credit for that. I think the answer here depends on a lot of stuff. For instance, how would you rate the Word of mouth for Maplestory right at this moment? If there was an older version Maple next to a newer version then do you believe that would help there be more players or less? How much value should one place on the Word of mouth from the kind of players that a Classic server would attract?
Early Maplestory meant a lot of things to different people. Maybe cherished memories from that period of time or any number of other experiences that could generate a list which could go on forever. One thing for me is that in that idealized world, the best players were the ones who were the most hardcore. Not only that but it was somehow different from the real world, Maple was a place where money was not all powerful. Yet, Maplestory did exist in the real world. I dare say that world from the past was like magic. Of course it is also truth that the grueling progression could make people feel ill in an instant. Maplestory is a slow leveling, mindless and repetitive RPG where everyone more or less spends their time doing the same tasks over and over again and it can also sponge your money away if you are not careful. But you see, I recognized the true Maplestory from the beginning which is why I was so impressed at what Pre Big bang Maple grew into.
Maplestory does not have as many players as it had before. I think it was suicidal for Nexon to ban talk about Old Maple on the official forums. Or rather it looks suicidal to have the ban and to keep the ban. (but thats just my opinion) How much is nostalgia worth in dollars? Can we put a price tag on preserving the original and true form of Maplestory? For all the players who had their PreBB dreams broken or lost their hope, I will keep believing that one day Nexon might wake up and redeem itself to the players who like Classic Maplestory. Before this I did not give Classic Maple much thought but I wonder if it is one of those things where you don't realize how much it meant until it was gone? Hard to say, since I have generally liked aspects of both new and old Maplestory.
According to the last official answer that I remember, Classic Maplestory is considered "not a priority" (similar answer to the one that was in the live Q&A some months ago) which is still a lot better than a "No, this will never happen." And hey, if there can be redemption for someone like Darth vader then surely Nexon still has a chance, right? The announcement of flames for GMS helped me realize something and that is certain players liked Classic Maple because it was simple. That is literally the reason why. You guys tell me, is the legacy of Maplestory something precious and worth the investment or is it forgettable?
(end scene)
The actors go on stage and wave.
Nexons task is to make choices which are good for the company and good for Maplestory. I can only hope that someday those interests will once again include the true form of Maplestory in all of its glory. Thank you everyone and good night!
(The curtains drop)
Voice over begins playing: "The cold never bothered me anyways"

Tea House in Paris
Jugetsu-do Paris has taken this concept of "Chazen Ichimi", providing our customers with flavorful genuine teas as a portal to experiencing the spirit of Cha-Zen and Japanese culture, where one can "experience the joy in focusing the 5 senses".
At the ground level floor, numerous stalks of bamboo hang from the ceiling in a radical design. On the Japanese cypress counter is a tea ceremony kettle, where various genuine Japanese teas can be enjoyed along with a selection of confections.
As a genuine Japanese tea boutique in Paris, we carry tea related dishes and utensils as well as original confections using Japanese tea, in addition to our selection of tea leaves.
In the basement floor is our tea room and gallery "Cha-Zen", a solid and stately cavern like space. In this area, we hold tea ceremonies as well as convey the four seasons of Japanese culture such as traditional crafts relating to Japanese tea.
The house was designed by a world-class architect, Kengo Kuma.
|I wanted to build a space reminiscent of a bamboo forest. There is a different kind of air to a bamboo forest that divides the usual world, with a different kind of light. For this kind of a special space, I placed a solid slate of Japanese cypress with no knots or gnarls.
Japanese cypress is a special kind of wood, and it was believed that items placed on such a counter world become smoother. My intentions were to have people enjoy the taste of "nature" upon this counter. The basement is a stone tea room.
Tea will likely hint at yet another dimension, in the basement caverns of Paris.

When Caroline first fell pregnant and told me I was going to be a dad I thought I had a vague idea of what I was getting into: nappies, sleeplessness, the usual stuff for a first-time dad, but oh how naive I was. There's so much I couldn't have planned for, especially with Mara arriving early. Here's a sampling of those surprises.
1. Baby poop can be multicoloured.
And it's called "meconium." The official definition is "the dark green/black substance forming the first faeces of a new born infant." But that foul sentence doesn't come close to doing meconium justice. There's nothing to prepare a first-time dad for this, ahem, unique brand of poop.
And don't get me started on what happens when you start to feed them anything other than milk...
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
2. Wherever you go, whatever you do everyone will give you their advice.
A first-time dad is an internet comment section in human form, with the world and their Aunty offering their opinions about what they think is for the best regarding vaccinating, gender stereotypes, dummies, co-sleeping... The list is endless. Some people are genuinely trying to be helpful, others are downright rude and look down their nose at you when you dare to react in a way which displeases them.
3. Baby noises can be scary, but silence can be worse.
For the first 5 weeks Mara was in hospital in the Special Care ward so she had round the clock care, but when we brought her home it was all on us! It wasn't her cries keeping us awake at night, it was every single gap of silence that had me out of bed to ensure she was still breathing. It took a couple of weeks for the silence to become serene and to be certain all her tiny noises weren't sounds of suffocation. This is where the Snuzahero comes in handy!
4. You'll end up with a stuffed toy collection to rival Build-A-Bear.
Before long, your newborn child will have accumulated an off-site storage space quantity of stuffed toys and if you think about the amount of dust lurking in that plush pile, you may never sleep again.
5. There are buttons in baby clothes where you don't expect them.
Before becoming a dad, I had no idea there were clothes with buttons in the crotch. They make changing nappies a breeze, but snapping those buttons shut on a wriggling baby should be a sport in the Olympics.
6. Vomit is inevitable.
A wise first-time dad goes into the experience expecting a fair amount of vomit, it's only natural after all, but he's probably not expecting it to project hard and fast onto his face at 2 a.m. By the way, it's warm, smelly, and every bit as disgusting as you'd imagine.
7. Baby food isn't bad.
As a youngster, I couldn't have guessed that someday I'd be tasting spoonful's of pureed apple from tiny glass jars (which are adorable, by the way) but beginner eaters are helped by mirroring our behaviour. So here comes that little aeroplane with a spoonful for you and a spoonful for me!
8. You'll become a feminist.
I'll admit to never really considering women's issues before I became a dad of a daughter. I have no recollection of ever discussing societal injustices or unequal pay with female friends growing up. As a first-time dad of a little lady, I suddenly saw the stereotyping on toy store shelves, looked up at their potential glass ceiling, and became aware of everything that could hinder my daughter as she grew up. Like any good dad, I want to help her overcome and solve it all. If Mara wants to be Batman at Halloween then she can be Batman!
9. There's nothing quite like sitting in a quiet home with your little one.
The hospital was a safety net with a comforting buzz of activity; assistance was only a button away. So I'll never forget the moment we brought our little bundle of joy home. She was sleeping and the house was still. We were alone with our new born and I didn't have a clue what to do next. The shaky confidence I possessed as a new dad quickly crumbled into a heap. There are no guidebooks, its one of those learn on the job situations.
10. You'll see yourself in your baby, more and more every day.
I understood the DNA of it all, that half of her came from me but I didn't know being a dad would be like walking into a hall of mirrors. As I watch her sense of humour, imagination, co-ordination and general development of my first child reveal itself, I grasped that much of who we are – for better and worse – is transferred onto our children.
11. Your heart will be lighter — even with those extra pounds.
My baby sleeping soundly on my chest is the most peaceful feeling ever. Her miniature breaths pushing her tiny belly in and out, the sweet smell of her wispy hair, her gurgles and giggles in her sleep; those memories will stay with me forever and are nearly strong enough to make me want to do it all again. Then I re-read many of the other items on this list and I realize that actually, I'm all set.
Mara is perfect in our eyes, and you can't top that.
Mara is perfect in our eyes, and you can't top that.

Human Rights: Unsafe Abortions Killing 70,000 a Year
Published on IPS, by Sanjay Suri, Oct. 14, 2009.
Unsafe abortions kill about 70,000 women a year, says a report by the U.S.- based Guttmacher Institute. An additional five million women are treated annually for complications arising from unsafe abortion, adds the report, based on a global survey.
The institute, which seeks to advance sexual and reproductive health through research and policy education, notes that the number of abortions worldwide fell from 45.5 million in 1995 to 41.6 million in 2003. But that has still not reduced the number of deaths.
"Unsafe abortions, including deaths from unsafe abortions, have not changed, even though overall rates of abortion are declining," Sharon Camp, president of the Guttmacher Institute, told IPS in an interview.
"The explanation for this is that populations of women are growing faster in various parts of the world that are least likely to make safe abortion widely available, and so women in some of the poorest countries of the world with the most rapid rates of population growth are having unsafe abortions at the same rate as they have for the last decade," she said.
Half of the deaths due to unsafe abortions are in Africa, Camp said. "The next largest number are in South Asia. Even though in India and Bangladesh abortion is legal, not all women in those countries have access to quality services."
The most timely prevention inevitably is contraception, Camp said. "Behind every abortion is an unwanted pregnancy, and if women can avoid those unwanted pregnancies in the first place, then abortion, whether legal or illegal, will go down. But until women's need for contraception is met, abortion rates are going to remain high."
Worldwide, the unintended pregnancy rate declined from 69 per 1,000 women aged 15-44 in 1995 to 55 per 1,000 in 2008, the report says. The proportion of married women using contraception increased from 54 percent in 1990 to 63 percent in 2003. Increases also occurred among sexually active single women.
However, regional levels of birth control use varied greatly. "While 71 percent of married women in Latin America and the Caribbean were using contraceptives in 2003, only 28 percent of married African women were doing so," the report says. "Nearly one in four married women in Africa had an unmet need for contraception in 2002-2007, compared with 10-13 percent of their counterparts in Asia and in Latin America and the Caribbean." END/2009. (full text).

Early in January, I watched my mailbox very closely. "Be the Hands and Feet, " by Nick Vujicic finally arrived, and I was part of his launch team. Which meant that after reading his book I was supposed to post my review on several different sites and tell people about his book that is coming out February 13th..
As I read, "Be the Hands and Feet, I thought of many of the people I know who are impacting others as they share their lives with those around them. I want to make sure you're aware of the book, so I've decided to share my review.
"Be the Hands and Feet" by Nick Vujicic is probably the most important book you'll read all year. As Nick shares Jesus with others, their lives are transformed. Most of us aren't evangelists but many people with a disability or any type of weakness would like to hide it because society often disqualifies them.
Nick's disability is obvious to everyone because he was born without arms and legs. As a woman with cerebral palsy, I know how nervous people can feel about being around us. I was blessed when Nick said that people who talk to him feel safe to tell him about their struggles because they see his.
This book is full of stories of people who display the love of God as they go about their daily activities. One of the many examples Nick gave was of couple who either became foster parents to children who had been abused or abandoned. The cycle abuse is often broken when they are placed in Christian homes and experience the love of Jesus.
"Be the Hands and Feet, " has given me a hunger to let God use my daily interactions to display his love. It will definitely encourage you to do the same.

It will also be able to reach sites at a normal traffic speed, which will, especially on highways, reduce both queues and time for maintenance work.
The Swedish government innovation agency Vinnova is funding the project in their SME Instrument Phase 1. Innovayt has assisted EMTW in developing and writing the proposal.

Here in the golf course maintenance department we get asked this question a lot. I thought I would update you on a few items that we are currently working on and how things look.
We had great snow cover on the turf during the periods of extremely cold temperatures. We were very thankful for that and also I am very glad that we made the decision to irrigate the turf in late December. I had an opportunity to tour the golf course late last week and the turf at this midway point looks to be in very good condition.
Now to the inside of the golf course maintenance facility. Blake Helland our equipment tech has been extremely busy working on every piece of equipment that we have. Blake's job is to bring each item in and service it. Very similar to taking your vehicle in for a oil change. Blake also inspects the units at this time and repairs any safety items, fixes any mechanical items that need attention. This could be a 3 hour time on one item and the next item might take several days.
Superintendent's Nate Tegtmeier and Mitch Meyers along with 1st assistant Craig Connell are busy finishing up the reel grinding and re-assembly of the units. Once this is completed they have to attach them back to the mowers. They have over 70 mowing units to do this to. Bearings are checked and replaced. Reels and bedknives are ground to manufacturer's specifications and then they are ready to go. Here in these photos the guys are working on the John Deere fairway mowing units. This is a critical step to make sure everything is in proper alignment and ready for the upcoming mowing season.
Rueben is very busy painting in our paint booth. All ballwashers, stands, garbage containers, rope stakes, driving range bag stands are sanded then Rueben paints them. Pedro, Jeff and Axel do the prep work and then they do the assembling of the items to have them ready to go. They look like new once they are completed.
Tanner, Zach, Arturo, Enrique and Rueben are also busy in the wood working shop. They are very busy making new tee markers, fixing and finishing divot boxes, all rope posts and red stakes.
In these photos Tanner is taking off the finish from last year and then Zach sands the posts.
The wooden posts or tee marker is then handed off to Arturo and Rueben to have the grooves routed in them and a final sanding.
Once this is done then Enrique brands our logo into the item and it comes over to the main shop to be stained/painted and finished.
These guys have been doing it this way for many years. They have to be well organized and ready to go so each step is completed on time. I think they do a wonderful job of doing that.
Nate, Mitch and myself have also been very busy working on chemical orders, fertilizer orders, and flower bed design and ordering. Jeff M. has been inventorying all of our equipment and updating our data base so that all items are recorded along with serial numbers and model numbers. Once this is done Jeff has the dubious task of working on the Safety Data Sheets and updating them for every product that we use in our department.
All of this work takes a lot of time. The guys also take much needed time off so that they are ready for another season.

In the last decade, libraries took a bold leap into cyberspace and so launched themselves into an inexorable evolution in the direction of becoming digital. Libraries will not cease to be mediators of access to the printed word, but they must also assume responsibility for managing a growing range of electronic information. Contributing to this evolution, and helping to implement and manage it at Washington & Lee, is at the core of my responsibilities as a librarian and a scholar, and leads me to propose a two-year program of exploration and development, centered on study of and contribution to the emerging models for digital libraries. At the urging of George Carras I am seeking external funding for the 18 months between July 2002 and December 2003 to carry out several elements of the program, and what follows is an attempt to lay out the background, rationale, and practical details of my plan.
Background and Rationale
My work as a reference librarian centers on information fluency, helping people develop practical means for access to the rapidly-growing landscape of literatures and data. The perspective of a science librarian takes in the activities and requirements of a number of departments whose members' research involves students directly, in laboratory sections, in advanced courses, and in summer research programs. These departments are linked together in interdisciplinary efforts in the sciences, and to other campus departments in programs such as Environmental Studies. For the last nine years (as science liaison and then as Science Librarian) I have been part of the science departments' discovery of common interests and needs, sometimes as an observer and often as a guide to new information resources. The library has provided leadership in Web development, electronic access to literature, acquisition and promulgation of electronic index tools, cross-linking of search tools and journals, and introduction and support of citation indexing via ISI's Web of Science. I have been involved as guest lecturer or instructor in courses in nearly all of the science departments and in several of the Programs in which they participate (University Scholars, Environmental Studies, Global Stewardship), and have also participated in supportive and supervisory roles in several R.E. Lee summer research projects. I have been working with others at Washington & Lee and elsewhere to develop and support Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as a cross-disciplinary tool for laboratory and classroom, and I have been exploring the many uses of database tools in the Web environment.
The next decade of development in information access will center on digital libraries, and offer students and teachers at colleges and universities direct access to vast resources of text, data, and other forms of information, far beyond what we have already experienced. This evolution will require new infrastructure and new ways of thinking and acting as we work to integrate this growing flood into teaching and learning, into classrooms and laboratories, and into collaborations and research programs. Many people in industry and academia are working on elements of this emerging electronic information infrastructure, though no convincing single vision of overall direction has yet emerged.
The National Science Foundation's Digital Library Initiative has provided support for exploration and development of digital library pilot programs, most tied to large-scale projects with enormous budgets and many participants. There are some exceptions, notably the ALSOS project at Washington & Lee, which make it clear that small-scale efforts have a place in the overall initiative, and that in fact a necessary part of digital library development is to encourage active participation at all levels. ALSOS is built on relatively simple technology (Access database, with ASP and SQL to link to the Web) and demonstrates that it is practical to develop sophisticated applications with student workers and small investments. ALSOS models a solution to a recurrent problem: that faced by the scholar or working group wishing to distribute the results of a local project to international audiences. Digital libraries exist at several levels of control: individuals work on their own collections of digital materials, groups share collections contributed by their members among themselves, and institutions publish and distribute to larger publics.
Small institutions can be active participants in digital library development, and liberal arts colleges are especially suited because they share a number of distinctive characteristics: their faculties are primarily concerned with teaching, much of the instruction is in small classes, students have opportunities for participation in faculty research programs, and students are encouraged to explore the full spectrum of academic disciplines and to take personal responsibility for their own learning. Historically, liberal arts colleges have been the source of much innovation in American higher education, precisely because they were not so constrained by disciplinary boundaries and jealousies, and because the face-to-face environment permitted by their small scale favors self-reliance and fosters a collegial model based on civility and cooperation, which in turn facilitates cross-disciplinary contact and experiment. For all these reasons it is practical and appropriate to undertake innovative development projects with the expectation that what we do will have wide application. We can do many things with existing resources, and we can do more with modest assistance.
Four Facets of the Information Future
Below I have identified four complementary and interlinked challenges, the common thread of which is electronic access to information. Taken together they constitute facets of the problem of designing and building effective and flexible digital libraries and integrating them into the work of individuals, groups, and institutions.
Courseware packages (Web Course in a Box, Element K, and others) offer suites of presentation and management tools for instructors and drop boxes and threaded discussion utilities for student use, and can serve as a means to augment traditional course structure with electronic features. Electronic teaching aids offer integrated pedagogical environments (Blackboard, etc.), but such packages impose a confining structure on both teacher and learner. They are classroom tools, designed primarily to stimulate and/or support traditional classroom activities, and not to facilitate new environments for communication and collaboration. We must ask more than this of computers in education.
To some degree this is a matter of venue: I have taught half a dozen different courses (from Human Geography and Anthropology of East Asia to Biological Literature and Digital Libraries) in computer labs, using the opportunity to integrate in-class writing, GIS exercises, Web page creation, and hands-on instruction in finding and managing information. The computer lab is a frustrating environment to teach in because it is (almost always) configured for individual work at separate workstations, and is poorly adapted to class discussion and group activities. A wireless network of laptops might be an effective alternative (as described in a proposal from October 2000, at home.wlu.edu/~blackmerh/tlrg/paspar2.html ).
Another challenge is incorporation of electronic archives and index tools into teaching in the sciences. JSTOR and PROLA offer keyword access to vast holdings formerly immured in bound journals, and Web of Science and SciFinder Scholar unlock the mysteries of tracing linkages and exploring intellectual history across disciplinary boundaries. There are few precedents to guide librarians and instructors in integrating these resources into teaching and learning, but without such linkage they will be expensive luxuries, of use only to specialists.
The traditional model that librarians have of their patrons (and that many instructors have of their students, and businesses have of their customers) views them as consumers of services. The Web makes it easier for users to locate what they seek, and for suppliers (librarians, teachers, or vendors -or their cybernetic agents) to distribute the results of queries. Transactions can be quite complex, and both library catalogs and the dot-com world make extensive use of active Web pages, which treat a user's input as a query to a database and return an answer. The pedagogical applications of active Web pages have not been widely explored, but have the potential to harness the notion that students and project collaborators are producers and knowledge creators as well as consumers. Their work can be gathered and shared and edited for wider distribution, and can be archived for posterity. A broad view of the digital library imagines an environment built to facilitate and support the collection, management, and redistribution of contributed information.
The need for GIS support provides an opportunity for development of joint resources in a digital library context, but also exemplifies this communication problem. The complexity and power of GIS software requires that an instructor commit considerable time to learning to use the applications, and to the task of teaching basic skills to students -seemingly, one has to teach GIS before one can teach with GIS. It should be possible to build a library of online tutorials to handle many of the questions that arise, and to address many pedagogical uses of spatial data via interactive maps distributed by an Internet Map Server shared by members of a consortium.
Managing the spatial data that go into GIS projects and the maps that are produced adds another layer of complexity. Most liberal arts colleges are not yet ready to dedicate resources to full-time support for GIS, and few libraries have personnel with the skills to manage spatial data. Some means of centralizing and sharing resources, and of distributing expertise, would make it feasible to extend the power of GIS to the many departments that would make use of computer mapping if they could.
It is certainly feasible to serve spatial information over the Web, either as spatial data to be used locally with GIS software, or as interactive maps, as described above. It is also possible to extend the functionality of Map Servers to provide spatial input to other applications, such as library catalogs and data analysis software (see ims1.wlu.edu for several prototypes). It is now practical to build a virtual spatial librarian service which could serve the specific needs of distant campuses, and thus provide a basis for collaborations using a common set of data. For example, I imagine a Digital Atlas of the South, with maps and data contributed by (and distributed over) a dozen or more institutions.
Interdisciplinary programs are also creators of information, and there are no ready answers for who should be responsible for curation and support and distribution of what they produce. Sometimes the case seems clear: the library is certainly a primary candidate for manager of the spatial data necessary for GIS, for mediation of relations with external databases, and for coordination of the information streams that result from research and collaboration activities. Most liberal arts college libraries are unprepared at the moment (in terms of staffing and technical skills) to take on these responsibilities, but I suggest that an active role in supporting the instructional and research activities of interdisciplinary programs is a continuation of the evolution we have already seen, and that active engagement would spread quickly to disciplinary activities as well, as departments find themselves more and more engaged in linkage with extramural resources and institutions.
The Projects
As Science Librarian I have enjoyed unlimited opportunity to develop interdisciplinary contacts and to explore novel solutions to problems I encountered. My long series of collaborative projects and experiments with technologies is likely to continue, and in six months I will probably be doing things I cannot imagine right now. The plans laid out below begin with activities and projects I have described in more detail in
Many of these activities are collaborations with Skip Williams, John Blackburn, Jim Kahn and other people at Washington and Lee, and some will involve work with people at other institutions. My role is primarily conceptual and communicative: others with the requisite skills will write code and build databases. Travel plays a substantial part, because digital library development cannot be an isolated activity: I need to know how colleagues at other institutions are thinking about and approaching solutions, others should know what we are working on, and it is important to explore what consortial and other collaborations can do to support one another.
A chronological sketch (inevitably provisional):
The specific projects (with some descriptive text drawn from existing proposals), each of which interconnects with sabbatical visits and planned development efforts, are these:
Subsequent developments may include
The user experiences the collaborative environment as an array of Web pages with entry, upload, search, display and editing capabilities. Behind this user interface, the Web service is built upon active server pages which connect to relational databases. The service provides links to data, texts, maps, images and other forms of information and may also be connected to specific software applications for display and analysis of data. The service also provides the means for individuals to manage their own personal digital libraries, and to contribute materials to the group's collection.
The emphasis is on active use of and contribution to a pool of shared resources. The individual and group libraries are working environments, not accessible to the outside world, but the potential for wider linkage is anticipated as well. After a process of editing and vetting, resources from individual libraries can be uplinked to the group, and elements of the group's digital library can likewise be contributed to public collections via Dublin Core records in larger digital libraries and/or public Web sites maintained by the group.
Development of software will take place in collaboration with Skip Williams, using the skills of student programmers.
Seeking Funds
I confess limitations of vision and perspective when it comes to enumerating and quantifying resources to carry out the plan as sketched. I can identify several activities for which request for external funding seems to be appropriate, but I need help in developing appropriate budgets:

Sarah Donalda Treadgold Memorial Award - Woman of the Year
Sarah Donalda Treadgold was an active and conscientious volunteer who understood the value and importance of working for the community. She was deeply interested in education and initially volunteered for many years on Kelowna Elementary School's P.T.A. She was encouraged to run for the office of school trustee in 1924 and topped the polls in every election for the next 23 years. Sarah was unassuming and definitely not looking for glory or trying to gain popularity. She was a loving mother with good ideas and the passion to stand up for what she believed - much like the other women who have been and will be honoured with the Sarah Donalda Treadgold Memorial Award.
Award Criteria
- Awarded to a woman in recognition of their outstanding voluntary contributions and community service to the city of Kelowna. Activities may be related to arts and culture, business, commerce, education, humanities, medical and recreation.
- Selections are based on the nominee's achievements and contributions throughout 2018.
- Past volunteer information may be included, but the nomination should focus on the current award year.
- Nominees must not have personally benefited from their activities, nor should the contributions be considered part of their normal employment or job responsibilities.
2017 Sarah Donalda Treadgold Memorial Award Recipient Woman of the Year
Catherine Williams
Since 2003, Catherine Williams has been volunteering with the Emergency Support Services and in 2011, was named the ESS Director for our community. It's Catherine's role to ensure volunteers are properly trained and coordinate them to step in on a moments notice, and when necessary, she is the one on call to open the reception center for evacuees.
In 2017, between the flooding and the fires, Catherine might have found herself wondering if the disasters would ever end! Not only was she in charge of the Reception Centre that saw evacuees from around the Province coming to Kelowna, but she had to deal with the Truswell apartment fire, the Lake Country fire and the Phillpot Road fire after an already busy spring flood season. The Reception Centre was open for more than 70 days in a row, some of them for 24 hours, requiring Catherine's unwavering organization skills and countless volunteer hours.
It's Catherine's role to keep in touch with both the Regional and Provincial Emergency Operations Centers. With so many evacuees landing in Kelowna, Catherine was given the task of preparing, as a precaution, five group lodging facilities– a service not needed here since the 2003 Okanagan Mountain Park fire.
In addition to running monthly meetings, Catherine has become a coveted guest speaker at other ESS locations in BC and Alberta.

Delta and Lyft Have Combined to Earn Delta Points on Lyft Rides
January 15, 2019 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
If you're a travel mileage junkie on the lookout for a new way to earn Delta miles, hitch a ride with Lyft. Delta Airlines recently announced a partnership with the ride sharing company that lets travelers earn miles just by using the service. Members can earn miles for every Lyft ride, and for a limited time, earn bonus miles during rides to and from the airport.
"We're thinking about our customers' whole travel experience and it's important that Delta customers are taken care of not just in the air, but on the ground," said Sandeep Dube, Delta's Vice President – Customer Engagement & Loyalty.
All SkyMiles members are eligible, but if you're not a SkyMiles member yet, but frequently take Lyft, sign up for Delta's program. Just remember that names must match on both accounts, so keep that in mind when you register.
There are several Lyft benefits offered to SkyMiles members including:
- One mile for every dollar spent on all rides (excluding taxes and tolls).
- For a limited time, get two bonus miles per $1 spent on Lyft rides to or from the airport.
- New riders get two $10 Lyft ride credits.
- All Lyft rides are all eligible to earn miles including Lyft Line, Classic, Plus, and Premier.
Earning miles is exclusively for SkyMiles Members who have active linked accounts at the time the ride is completed, which means you can't get credit for past rides. So be sure to register and connect your two accounts before your next trip. Finally, if you and several co-workers or family members ride together, only the Lyft rider who requested the ride can earn miles, so you'll have to fight it out with anyone else who wants the miles.
This is not the first partnership Delta has made with other travel service companies. In November 2016, they partnered with Airbnb to award extra miles to SkyMiles members who stayed in an Airbnb property. Delta also partnered with an innovative biometric identity verification platform, CLEAR, which allows SkyMiles members a discount on the highly coveted opportunity to expedite TSA security processes.
Are you a Delta or Lyft account holder? Will an arrangement like this inspire you to join one or the other program? Have you seen it in action already? Share your stories with us on our Facebook page, or on our Twitter stream.

Business Travelers Increasingly Use Lyft Ride-Sharing Services
September 18, 2018 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
It used to be that, when you needed to get across town or to the airport, a loud whistle or the wave of an arm would bring a car to your feet. There was a time when a cab was the sole form of a solo ride for pedestrians.
Then Uber hit the streets, which began to threaten the public transportation mainstay; coming in from the back of the pack was Lyft. These days, the tried-and-true method has been overtaken by a sleeker, newer model, and ground transportation is becoming a neck-and-neck race between two contenders. And it's the taxis that may be left out in the cold.
According to USA Today, Certify, a business expense tracking company, reported that Lyft is seeing more growth than Uber and the "old-fashioned" taxi.

Five Ways Business Travel is Changing in 2018
March 8, 2018 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
Change is constant throughout life, and business travel is no exception. As we near the end of our first quarter of the year, we're starting to see some changes in the way we're approaching travel and the way the technology is changing how we get from Point A to Point B.
Sharing economies such as Airbnb, Uber, and Lyft have transitioned from independent rebels operating outside mainstream business to becoming accepted as helpful ways to accomplish business travel goals and keep budgets in line.
Because of the wide acceptance of these services, particularly among small business owners, an article on The Next Web wonders how these companies will expand. For example, in 2014, small business owners only chose Uber over taxis 1 in 3 times. As of the end of 2017, that had reversed, with Uber being the preferred choice 3 to 1. Airbnb has had a similar experience among the same demographic. In 2014, hotels were preferred to Airbnb properties 16 to 1, while just three years later, that ratio was only 6 to 1. It will be interesting to see how these ride sharing and hospitality service economies navigate saturation in the remainder of 2018.
Blockchain technology advances and the use of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin are infiltrating marketplace transactions and this year could be a turning point in how it is accepted by the big players in the credit industry. In the final quarter of 2017, American Express, VISA, and MasterCard each announced its intentions to get in on the burgeoning tectonic shift in the way transactions are completed around the world.
One of the main reasons these three players are making moves to stake their claim in this Wild West of transaction technology is because blockchain transactions operate differently and outside of traditional banking systems. A decentralized network of computers has the ability to encrypt and maintain the integrity of a public ledger so that it is immune to hacking and fraud. Blockchain also allows individuals to conduct business without a middleman, such as a credit card company or bank, and this innovation has the potential to alter the landscape of how both businesses and citizens do business in significant ways.
While we are still a ways away from it being ubiquitous and part of the way everyone buys and sells goods and services, blockchain and Bitcoin's use overseas is forcing banks and credit card companies to implement initiatives so they aren't left behind.
Much faster than we expected and may be ready for, self-driving cars are no longer a futuristic concept. They'll be operational in a limited number of cities as early as 2019, after Uber launched its first test fleet in 2016. Its recently-announced partnership with Volvo to add 24,000 such vehicles to its fleet, and Lyft's partnership with Waymo to make similar advancements in its business strategy, self-driving cars are only going to increase the availability of another viable option for business travel very, very soon.
While it may still be some time before you'll see a self-driving car pull up to the curb to take you where you need to go, artificial intelligence (AI) has already made significant inroads to the way we create itineraries online for business travel. Labeled "cognitive projects" in an IBM report of the business travel industry leaders, a third of all companies in this space are working on AI enhancements that will personalize the business traveler's experience.
Whether you call it "interactive customer service" or a "chatbot" that pops up when you're considering a specific flight itinerary, these cognitive projects are being designed to analyze large data sets and the preferences of other travelers in order to create an itinerary that appears to have been customized.
Business travelers may not even notice the influx of AI into the process, since the technology is being developed in such a way that it can converse in natural language with prospective customers in order to determine and meet their needs.
All of these changes are the result of the fact that there's money to be made in business travel. According to the Global Business Travel Association, business travel is expected to increase by 6 percent this year, up from 3.5 percent in 2016. Increased trade worldwide and growth in both manufacturing and emerging markets are driving optimism. While this may be good for the economy, businesses will have to find creative ways to absorb or streamline the projected 3.5 and 3.7 percent increases, respectively, in airline tickets and hotel accommodations.
With all this potential for dramatic changes, the mature nature of the business travel industry will find ways to adjust and welcome these shifts because it knows they ultimately result in growth.

More Companies Allowing Business Travelers to Use Sharing Economies
January 30, 2018 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
Business travelers who have taken an Uber or Lyft instead of hailing a taxi, or stayed at an Airbnb property instead of staying at a hotel chain, you're among a growing majority of employees whose companies are encouraging using the emerging sharing economies.
According to a survey conducted by Chrome River Technologies, an expense and invoice management technology solutions company, 78 percent of companies with 1,000 or more employees allow their travelers to use ride-sharing services, while 68 percent allow home-sharing services.
The company asked 100 chief financial officers, controllers, and treasurers at 100 U.S.-based companies for this data in order to determine how much freedom corporations provide their employees when they travel for business.
"Corporate travel and expense policies should be agile enough to address the ever-changing nature of business travel. It's refreshing to see that larger organizations have already incorporated sharing economy services into their policies," Alan Rich, Chrome River CEO, said in a statement.
While less than one-quarter of the officers surveyed said their company doesn't have any policy regarding the use of sharing economy services, 17 percent have instituted policies that don't allow the use of ride-hailing services, and 24 percent prohibit their employees from booking accommodations through home-sharing platforms. Perhaps even more surprising were the percentages regarding the mandating of such services: 13 percent of companies require their people to use ride-sharing apps, while 12 percent have dictated that travelers must use home-sharing instead of hotels for lodging.
The implementation of rules and policies for reimbursement and reporting of expenses related to these services follows the rising trend among leisure travelers. The survey data shows some are still hesitant to utilize such options.
Does your company allow you to use sharing economy accommodations or are you limited to just traditional hotel and travel brands? Tell us about your experiences in the comments below, on our Facebook page, or in our Twitter stream.

Uber and Lyft Overtake Taxis for Business Travel
September 12, 2017 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
We've been hearing rumors for a while, but now there's data to back up what many have been saying: Uber and Lyft are being used more than taxis for business travel.
According to a report by Certify, a travel expense management software company, at the end of the third quarter of last year, ride-hailing services accounted for more than half of all business travel receipts in the ground transportation category.
In its analysis of 10 million receipts, Uber was clearly the favorite, and it's easy to understand why. Both Uber and Lyft provide a simplified, streamlined experience: reservations can be made online; an estimate of the cost is provided before a reservation is secured; users can track the car's arrival; cars are clean, newer models; and, their drivers are friendly and knowledgeable about their city. No money changes hands, and detailed receipts of the time, date, route, and credit card used are emailed, avoiding fraud by either the user or the driver.
"We continue to see interest in the ride-sharing economy," Robert Neveu, CEO of Certify, told USA Today. "Small to medium businesses were the early adopters. Now, more Fortune 500 companies are adding them to approved vendor lists."

Would You Ride in a Driverless Uber?
February 20, 2017 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
When Uber began testing driverless cars in several cities (and battled with California over its right to do so without a permit) last year, select passengers who wanted to try the experience weren't the only passengers in the car. That's because Uber is conducting research and has operators in the vehicles as it tests them in real life scenarios.
As Uber engineers test the automation, several things are proving to be troublesome for the artificial intelligence to interpret. First and foremost, the unpredictability of human drivers makes it challenging for the AI to compensate. For example, crossing over into the left lane to make a right-hand turn is a scenario that does not compute for the software.
Another quandary is bridges, so the company chose Pittsburgh specifically because of its many bridges, as a way to iron those bugs out. Bridges are difficult for driverless cars to handle, said Uber's engineering director Raffi Krikorian, because they lack environmental cues that streets have, namely buildings. According to Business Insider, Krikorian said Pittsburgh was the "double black diamond of driving" and he believes conducting research in that city will help the research advance quickly.
Weather is also proving a challenge because snow, for example, obscures lane markings, making navigation tricky. Uber is also finding other challenges from nature during its tests, such as trees. The cars rely on high-definition maps with landmarks to navigate. In Pittsburgh, the images on those maps were taken in the winter when there were no leaves on the trees, so the car can't determine what the new objects on its route are.

Rental Cars Still Going Strong in Age of Uber
February 17, 2017 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
As Uber, Lyft, and other ridesharing services continue to grow, it stands to reason that the emergence of these services would negatively affect the rental car industry.
But it turns out it's not as cut and dried as it may appear.
According to car rental industry leaders, the need that rental cars fill for the public is not the same as the one being met by Uber and Lyft. In fact, according to USA Today, Avis Budget Group reported a three percent increase in revenues over the first three quarters of 2016 and Enterprise Holdings saw a 10 percent increase in its airport car rental revenue in 2015.
So, no real disruption here.
The reason for these upward trends is that rental cars and Uber are not an apples-to-apples comparison. According to Neil Abrams, a consultant in the car rental industry, "Typically, auto rental is lumped into the general category of ground transportation, including taxi and livery services. However, whereas taxi and livery are of shorter duration and mileage, the rental customer normally has a different requirement which demands more time and distance."

Travel Top Five: Lowering Your Ride Sharing Costs
January 11, 2017 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
With the steadily increasing popularity of Uber and Lyft, it seems ride sharing is becoming a popular mode of transportation for business travel. If you rely on it regularly, what are the best ways to save money? We've done some research and here's what we found:
Booking in advance allows you to secure a ride when you need it, instead of waiting when you'd really rather be on your way. You'll save money by scheduling your ride when you know it's not rush hour. If you use Lyft, scheduling locks in your fare; Uber doesn't offer that feature.
Search online for coupons. Both companies are competing for customers, so do a little poking around on either company's official site or at sites like Groupon. Uber offers free rides for those who refer a friend who downloads the app, so if you're traveling with a friend, have him or her download the app with your referral link, and you can both get a free ride to wherever you're going.
Avoid traveling during surges. Fares are adjusted automatically, based on demand. For example, prices soar after events because of the demand for drivers, so if you can wait, the cost will drop. Don't think you'll get the average fare for a trip you've taken before if you're among the throngs waiting for a ride.

GM and Lyft Working to Make Self-Driving Cars a Reality
June 15, 2016 by Matt Sill · Leave a Comment
The transportation you use once you arrive at your destination, whether traveling from the airport to your hotel or from the commuter train to your business meeting, can be a big part of your overall travel experience.
Besides impacting your overall feeling about the trip, it can be expensive, depending on what you use. While limos or taxis used to be the predominant method, the popularity of Uber and its competitor Lyft have changed the conversation about what mode of transport is not only most pleasant and efficient, but most cost effective.
To that end, GM and Lyft are betting that utilizing driverless cars will create an even less expensive option for users. Conde Nast Traveler reports the two companies have combined forces, and GM has purchased driverless tech company Cruise Automation, with an eye on capturing that emerging market.

Democratic U.S. Rep. John Dingell has come up with a surprising proposal – considering he's from the car-making state of Michigan.
According to the Detroit Free Press, Dingell is proposing to fight global warming by putting a 50-cent-per-gallon tax on gasoline and a $50-per-ton tax on carbon emissions, most of which would be charged to utility companies.
Under his plan, ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel would not be taxed, and neither would biodiesel.
Most of the proceeds from the taxes on gas and carbon would go to highways and mass transit. But 40 percent would go to Medicare, social security and universal health care.

Use your bad for good
All around me I see so many that are going through the pain of losing a baby. This is so near and dear to my heart that I can only sit and cry for them as I pray that God touches them in a special way. It's crazy how intense I can feel something for someone else. Yesterday was also a reminder of the pain that can come from infertility or loss of a baby. I remember how it felt to go through mothers day after mothers day not being able to hold a baby in my arms or even have those around me acknowledge that I was a mommy, that my babies just didn't live with me. I have prayed through my journey of becoming a mother that God would never let me forget the pain that I endured. I am very blessed and full of joy in how God has blessed me, but I don't want to "leave behind" those who are still in the middle of the journey. I really can say that I am honestly thankful for my journey. For what I learned in the midst of the trials and what I continue to learn as I minister to women hurting. God can truly take the bad stuff in our life and use it for the good. So I can only end with this question for you: Will you let God use your bad times for good and let Him teach you some great lessons through it all?

I came across this Chameleon Clocks App on Design Milk today...
They are cool, yeah whatevs. But I couldn't help thinking how amazing it would be to have that app on your TV...
Think of the interior design implications! Your TV could very nearly "camouflage" into the wall behind it.
Someone needs to make this happen. It's only a matter of time before TVs and Computers are the same thing, right?
