A mixed bag of old and new featuring three fumbles from Farley……
- Van Der Graaf – Cat's Eye, Yellow Fever (Running) – The Quiet Zone/The Pleasure Demo – they dropped the "generator" part of the name for this 1977 release, possibly the coolest prog rock band in the universe at the time given Hammill's approbation by the likes of Smith and Lydon….this finds Hammill and Evans reunited with Nic Potter and adding Graeme Smith from "String Driven Thing" to create a unique mix of punk ethic and prog excess. A great album and well worth searching out for a listen.
- Moongoose – Slumber (There is light) – Silhouettes and Shadows – well we've all been getting a little bit excited about this band at Salford City Radio and my chums SD and Monty have been playing their music – thanks to James for getting this one to me. Exceptional stuff.
- Voix Bulgares – Polegnala E Todala – Le Mystere Des Voix Bulgares – fond memories of this album from the Peel show and thanks to Farley for recommending it as a "fumble" for this weeks show.
- Siglo 21 – She's The One – Residents of Temporary Homes – I received a pile of CDs from the lovely folks at Sleepy Music and was impressed by all of them. This band write great tunes.
- Steamkings – The Heavenly B&B – The Full English – Songs about illicit weekends in Brighton, encroaching adult responsibilities and how to avoid them. Unreleased until recently , and with extra bonus tracks from the sessions. Great album.
- Twin Atlantic – Make A Beast of Myself – Single – out soon, not been too keen on this lot until now but this single is damn good.
- Robedoor – Solid State – Bored Fortress – another Farley recommendation – this band have had a split release with local heroes "Gnod" – in essence Alex and Britt Brown doyens of the underground scene who run the Not Not Fun lable. Loose, improvisational and trancey.
- Moongoose – Dark Forces Walking – Silhouettes and Shadow – another excellent track from a rather marvellous combo.
- Forgery Lit – Innocence – Demo – as featured on last weeks show.
- Honey – Counting Seasons – Taste It and See – as featured for the last four weeks this is the remaining track from the recent EP that I have not played yet.
- Sen Segur – Cyfoeth Gwylb – Pen Rhydd – as featured for the last four weeks this is the remaining track from the last but one EP that I have not played yet. Loosely translates from the Welsh as Power Wet….or is it Wet Power?
- Orchestra of Spheres – Spontaneous Symmetry – Nonogonic Now – the last Farley "Fumble" of the evening, barking mad and rather fine indeed.
- Scientist and Prince Jammy – Buck Rogers in the Black Hole – Scientist and Jammy Strike Back! – Linval Thompson and the Roots Radics at their dubby best.

Located in the southern part of Cuenca, Valeria has a vast historic-artistic heritage, which will take the visitor back to the times of the Roman Empire.
In the region known as La Manchuela, the monumental city of Valeria stands. Its historic relevance has left an important architectural legacy, some of which can be seen at its remarkable main square, or Plaza Mayor. This is the space where we find both the City Hall (17th century) and the Romanesque church of Asunción, which dates back to the 12th century, although it was later remodelled in the 16th and 17th centuries. Among civil structures, we must point out the palace of the Dukes of Granada. Near the city centre we can see the old Roman-Hispanic settlement of Valeria. Over this archaeological site, a medieval fortress was built, taking advantage of its strategic location on top of a hill, and on the banks of the Gritos river. The ancient Roman basilica was adapted to Visigothic rites, and later, it was turned into the church of Nuestra Señora de la Rotonda. We still can admire the layout of the streets, and the water supply system, which includes an aqueduct, three underground reservoirs, and a "ninfeo", or fountain.

Dr. Jack Holmes of the Hope College political science faculty presented a paper co-authored with Hope junior Gretchen Keillor of Ravenna, Ohio, and participated in a panel discussion during the 49th annual convention of the International Studies Association, held in San Francisco, Calif., on Wednesday-Saturday, March 26-29.
The paper analyzes the foreign policy choices facing the American public in the 2008 election in long-term perspective, and was presented as part of a panel which looked at American foreign policy possibilities during the next few years. The paper concludes that some changes are to be expected and will vary depending on which of the three remaining major candidates wins in November, but that there will be substantial continuity due to long-term trends and world conditions.
Holmes, a professor of political science at Hope, served as chair and a discussant on another panel evaluating the foreign policy of George W. Bush. The panel considered a wide variety of viewpoints, including some international scholars. Holmes noted that a number of issues were raised and that the papers presented made several suggestions for foreign policy improvement.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon arrived in Brussels yesterday for a two day visit. Today the Secretary-General meets with Senior EU officals and addresses a major conference on Sustainable Energy for All.
Yesterday Mr. Ban had a meeting with Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo where the discussed a wide variety of subjects, including the situations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Afghanistan and the issue of sustainable development and the upcoming UN Conference on Sustainable Development in Brazil, the so-called Rio + 20 conference.
"We discussed in length about how we can work together to make this sustainable development a great success for humanity and this is a once in a lifetime, once-in-a-generation opportunity to address; starting from climate change, the water issue, the energy issue and global health, gender empowerment, healthy oceans and all other global challenges, " the Secretary-General told a press conference after his meeting with Mr. Di Rupo.
Ban´s visit is his third since his election as UN Secretary-General in 2007 but the first since Elio Di Rupo became Belgium´s Prime Minister. "We are very happy to have such a strong support and generous contribution of the Belgian government. I regard Belgium as a very strong Partner of the United Nations and that is why when I was first elected as Secretary-General, this is the first country I visited in early 2007 in January, and I'm also very happy to visit Belgium at such an early stage of my second term as Secretary-General. That means I attach great importance in maintaining such a good relationship with Belgium, " Mr. Ban told the press conference.
The last stop of Mr. Ban's trip will be in Luxembourg, where he will meet the Henri the Grand Duke, Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker and other senior officials. He will also address the Luxembourg Parliament.

At first blush, there doesn't look to be a lot of synergy between Service Oriented Architecture and relational database management systems (RDBMS). The primary function of a database management system is, after all, to manage the storage, retrieval and integrity of the data it is called upon to manage. It's that last word, integrity, that provides insight into commonality.
In the late 1980s Sybase introduced the notion of triggers into their flagship RDBMS product. A trigger was a piece of code that was executed when "something interesting" happened to the data under management. Triggers provided a very flexible way of reacting to changes like, for example, deleting a row from the database. That deletion could then cause a series of other actions (usually embedded in stored procedures), for example cascading the delete of one row to others - and thus enforcing referential integrity. Quite an elegant solution at the database level.
Of course, being about the only capability available for guaranteeing that the events would be detected, triggers started to get abused, whole rafts of business logic were embedded in stored procedures, and the database became the logic engine and the storage engine. No real separation of concerns there.
Now let's forward to 2008 and look for parallels and opportunities. For transaction processing, we are beginning to see much lighter weight data management engines (look at Google's bigtable implementation or Amazon's simpledb). Business logic is being pushed into services - probably where it should be. That leaves us with a bit of a hole. The value that triggers provided is still needed, but now it should be at the same level of data abstraction as the data managed by the services. That level is typically at the business object level.
So taking the simple concept of a trigger, we can ask ourselves if there is value to the enterprise in knowing when "interesting" things happen to business objects. (Of course this is still too broad, but bear with me here). There are some business events that are quite interesting to know about. For example a big customer win (resulting in the creation of a new customer in business terms) is likely to be very interesting to the organization as a whole. Can be notified as a morale booster/internal PR operation, can add some heft to other sales activities,... The list is endless. It isn't sensible to notify this at the database level, that is too low level, to proprietary. It makes a whole lot more sense to publish the "event" on the corporate internal nervous system.
It is impossible for the customer management service to know who or what might be interested in the information. Just as in the database world, the table with the "add trigger" doesn't actually know which other tables might be affected. All the customer management service knows is "that something just happened and there may be others interested". It then becomes the job of the corporate nervous system to let this event be "broadcast". Anything interested can then pick it up and make its own decisions.
It is therefore the responsibility of the ESB to provide this kind of capability in the containers that surround and manage the business objects, just as it was the DBMS's responsibility a generation earlier. It is the enterprise business architecture's job to determine which of these events should be triggered, and how the interested parties might react.
No there isn't much new here, we have had pub/sub architectures before - usually to aid with application integration. What is new here is that we can use the standards based capabilities that our SOA frameworks give us, together with a firm understanding of the need to drive change, to guide us to delivering a more flexible, sustainable architecture.

Five-goal third period lifts Finns to first world title since 1995
BRATISLAVA – It is a great day in Finnish hockey history. In the latest chapter of hockey's classic Nordic rivalry, Finland demolished Sweden 6-1 in the gold medal game of the 2011 IIHF World Championship. Petteri Nokelainen scored the first of five third-period Finnish goals, and it stood up as the winner.Sweden – Finland 1-6 (0-0, 1-1, 0-5) Game Sheet PhotosTournament scoring leader Jarkko Immonen (9-3-12), Niko Kapanen, Janne Pesonen, Mika Pyörälä, and Antti Pihlström also tallied for Finland. Magnus Pääjärvi scored for Sweden."This is the highlight of my career," said Finland's Sami Lepistö. "Of course, the Olympic bronze last year was big, but this is the World Championship."In a duel of 2011's top two goalies statistically, Finland's Petri Vehanen got the best of tournament MVP Viktor Fasth as Sweden outshot the Finns 33-32.The 16-year wait for Finnish fans is finally over. Finland's one and only previous World Championship gold came in 1995 in Stockholm with a 4-1 final win over Sweden, as the Finnish fans celebrated to the strains of the bouncy tournament theme song, "Den Glider In.""It's easy to say now, but I knew after the semifinal win [over Russia] that we'd win the gold," said Tuomo Ruutu of Finland's 2011 dream come true. "We didn't change a thing. We kept on playing our own game."Jukka Jalonen got his first World Championship medal ever as head coach of the Finnish Lions, and it was the colour he was looking for."We had a great tournament," said Jalonen. "It's an honour to win gold. We won many one-goal games here. This says a lot about the character of the team."Pär Mårts, who coached Sweden to World U20 silver in 2008 and 2009, came away with second place again in his head coaching debut at the Worlds."The Finns were the better team," Mårts admitted. "They played much better on defence and had more power. Nobody on the Swedish team played his best game. I'm proud that my team had a pretty good tournament. Not the best, but it's a start for something better."This night, the attendance of 9,166 at Orange Arena was evenly split among Finnish and Swedish fans, and their competing chants of "Suomi!"and "Sverige!" created a great atmosphere.The Finns, showing the mental toughness they've shown all tournament long, didn't crumble under adversity in the biggest game of the year. They delivered the most emphatic big-game win ever for a squad sporting Suomi sweaters.After a tense, scoreless first period, Sweden got the first goal at 7:20 of the second when Pääjärvi unleashed a lightning wrister from the left faceoff circle that beat Vehanen high on the glove side.Nokelainen took a boarding call on Oliver Ekman-Larsson on the forecheck at 14:25, and Sweden went to the power play. The Swedes came close to grabbing a two-goal lead when Patrik Berglund tipped Pääjärvi's slap-pass off the post.Finnish wunderkind Mikael Granlund drew a penalty late in the middle frame as he tried to dipsy-doodle through David Petrasek, who hooked him. And with seven seconds left before the buzzer, the Finns tied it on Immonen's tournament-leading ninth goal.A prone Mikko Koivu kicked the puck back up the left boards to Janne Pesonen, who got it to Immonen, and he stepped in from the left point and hammered it high past Fasth's glove.It was a critical moment. The Finns had seized the momentum heading to the third. "If they didn't get that goal, it's a different game," said a regretful Mattias Tedenby.The Finns just kept rolling. At 2:35 of the final stanza, Nokelainen broke in over the Swedish blueline alongside Pihlström, who sent him a neat pass on the left side, and he roofed it impeccably past Fasth's stick.At 3:21, the Finns went up 3-1 when Kapanen grabbed a loose puck to Fasth's left after a partially blocked centering pass from Juhamatti Aaltonen and banged it in.Halfway through the third, the Swedes called a timeout to regroup. But they couldn't solve Finland's tenacious checking.The Finns got a ton of late insurance goals. First, there was a marker from Pesonen with 3:41 left, as he raced in to collect a Granlund shoot-in off the end boards and put a backhand deke past Fasth to make it 4-1. Pyörälä completely doused hopes of a Swedish rally when he potted another one from the right faceoff circle just 35 seconds later."I don't know what happened to the Swedes, but they didn't have a chance, did they?" said Lepistö.Pihlström put the icing on the cake with a beautiful high shot with 55 seconds left. 6-1. Good night, Sweden."I'm just really disappointed we didn't come up with a better third period when it mattered the most," said Swedish captain Rickard Wallin."They scored five goals in one period, and that's not supposed to happen to us," said Pääjärvi.The Finnish celebration was on, not only in the arena, but from Helsinki to Rovaniemi. Accepting their gold medals from IIHF President René Fasel, the Finnish players saluted their fans, sang along lustily to their national anthem, and hoisted the trophy as if they couldn't believe their time had finally come.It is a refreshing pace of change for Finland, which had grown accustomed to heartbreaking losses to Sweden. Two recent examples include Sweden's rallying from a 5-1 deficit to down Finland 6-5 in the 2003 World Championship quarter-finals in Helsinki, and Tre Kronor's 3-2 victory in the 2006 Olympic gold medal game on Nicklas Lidström's early third-period goal.The Finns can now put behind them a sad legacy of losing in the finals under the IIHF's playoff system (1992, 1994, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2007). They are the well-deserving champions of the world."This team is full of fantastic guys," said Ruutu. "I felt that we were a tight group and we did everything together as a team, on the ice and off it."Sweden's last medal came in 2010 with a bronze medal victory over the host Germans. Finland's previous one also came at Sweden's expense, a bronze in Canada 2008.Interestingly, 2011 marks the first year that Finland's national team has not included at least one member of the squad that won gold in Sweden in 1995.The gold medal victory moves Finland up from fifth place to second in the IIHF World Ranking.The two Nordic finalists are also the co-hosts of the IIHF World Championship in 2012 and 2013. Finland hopes to be defending its title when the next gold medal game is played in Helsinki on May 20, 2012.LUCAS AYKROYD

At the White Lion - Small Square 2/143, Old Town
Small Square 2/143, Old Town
Originally an early Gothic house, rebuilt around 1600 in late Renaissance style and then after 1796 in late Baroque style. A Gothic entrance portal was preserved along with the house sign (Czech lion). Above the window on the first floor there is a Rococo relief of Christ's Resurrection from mid-18th century. The first Prague printing works used to be located there, in 1488 the Prague Bible – the first Czech and also Slavic printed Bible - was published there. Since 1520 the printing works and the house were owned by a Humanist Mikuláš Konáš of Hodíštkov who published among other things Tracts of John Hus, Czech Chronicle by A. S. Piccolomini and works of Ancient philosophers.

Foundation, finance and *uck-ups
The alliteration was too good to miss. It's a shame about the asterisk but Dr Grumble does not want to attract inappropriate traffic. So why these three F-words? It is because Dr Grumble thinks they might just be connected.
If you are in charge of a hospital your main focus should be on providing a high quality, safe service. Everything else should be secondary. If you have to overspend to obviate a disaster you should do it. It actually used to be like that. Everybody understood that safe care was paramount and sometimes the balance sheet but not the patients would have to suffer.
Where do you think this paragraph comes from?
The minutes of the executive team suggested that the main focus of the executives was also on finance, the PFI, service reconfiguration, service level agreements and, latterly, foundation trust status. (pdf)
Could it be from some inquiry into the Mid Staffordshire Foundation Trust? Perhaps it could. But it isn't. This is from the Mid Stafforshire Inquiry:
If there is one lesson to be learnt, I suggest it is that people must always come before numbers.
The very interesting thing is that Dr Grumble had not read the Mid Stafforshire report as he started this post. He just somehow knew what it was going to say. And amazingly on the second page in the covering letter there it was. People must come before numbers. Which is a pithier way of saying what Dr Grumble has always known.
But the question Dr Grumble would really like to ask is whether the creation of Foundation trusts has created this problem. It seems it has. Which means that the problem has been of the government's own making. Yet it seems they are powerless to undo it. Worse still, the opposition want to speed up this flawed process. Is there no hope of some sanity?


text:
Strange indeed is the complacency with which modern men can say that the Golden Rule and the high ethical principles of Jesus are all that they need. In reality, if the requirements for entrance into the Kingdom of God are what Jesus declares them to be, we are all undone; we have not even attained to the external righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, and how shall we attain to that righteousness of the heart which Jesus demands? The Sermon on the Mount, rightly interpreted, then, makes man a seeker after some divine means of salvation by which entrance into the Kingdom can be obtained. Even Moses was too high for us; but before this higher law of Jesus who shall stand without being condemned? The Sermon on the Mount, like all the rest of the New Testament, really leads a man straight to the foot of the Cross.

"The Gospel Is for Everyone," Liahona, Feb. 2011, 54–56
The Gospel Is for Everyone
I had often wondered where true happiness came from. Then I found it in "the big box."
When I was 16 years old and living in Porto Alegre, Brazil, my older brother had a friend who often visited our home. One day this friend told us that he had found a church and that he liked its members' way of living.
He told us a little bit about his experience with joining The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but he wasn't sure that my brother and I were "church material." He thought that the standards of the Church would be too much for my brother and me to embrace.
Our sister, however, was a good, kind girl. Because of these traits, our friend thought that she might be interested in what Latter-day Saints stood for, so he asked our mother if she could attend a Church activity with him.
Our mother agreed but only on the condition that my brother or I go too. My brother was faster than I was and quickly said, "Not me!" So I was designated to go to the activity with my sister.
I didn't really mind. I had been curious about the Church since I had first seen the large, square chapel across from my school. I had seen people coming and going from the church often, and I had noticed that the men wore white shirts and ties. I wondered what could be going on inside "the big box," as I then thought of the building.
My First Activity
My sister and I arrived at the church with our friend. Inside, at the center of a large cultural hall was a small group of people: two sister missionaries and maybe six others. They were playing a simple game and enjoying popcorn and juice. Everyone was laughing and having a good time.
"Who are these people," I wondered, "and why are they so happy?" I knew it certainly couldn't be because of the game they were playing or the physical environment or the treats they were sharing. Those were all so simple. The happiness seemed to be coming from inside them.
I had often wondered where true happiness came from and what I could do to find it. I thought maybe it came from exciting activities or taking exotic vacations or pursuing all that the world has to offer. And then I went to that meetinghouse, where these people were so happy without any of those things. It made a significant impression on me.
After the activity the missionaries stood at the exit to shake hands with everyone. When my sister got to the door, they asked her if she would be interested in knowing more about the Church. She said, "No, thanks." But I was still curious. I felt a "desire to believe" (Alma 32:27), so when they invited me to learn more about the gospel, I said yes.
My parents weren't interested in the missionary lessons or in having them conducted in our home, so I arranged to have the lessons at the meetinghouse. Over the next month I learned about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ—about what made those people in that cultural hall so happy. I learned that happiness came from doing what the Lord wanted me to do, that it came from within, and that I could be happy no matter what was going on around me. That doctrine was "delicious to me" (Alma 32:28). I wanted it in my life.
A month after that first activity, I decided to join the Church. In the years that followed, both of my parents also joined the Church.
Trials after Baptism
I faced a lot of challenges after my baptism. The changes I needed to make in my life were significant. On top of that, sometimes I felt that I had no friends in the Church, and it was tempting to go back to my old friends. But my desire to feel joy—and my understanding that we can be happy regardless of external circumstances—helped me keep coming back to church. I knew I couldn't "lay aside [my] faith" (Alma 32:36). Over time I made friends within the Church who helped me during the transition. And as I continued to live the gospel, my testimony and my happiness grew (see Alma 32:37).
My experience with conversion—my own and that of others—has taught me that the Spirit can touch anybody, anywhere and that there is no ideal profile for a potential member of the Church. All of us need the gospel of Jesus Christ. All of us are in the process of becoming more like Him.
That realization helped me as a missionary in São Paulo, Brazil; as a mission president in Belem, Brazil; and as a member of the Church. It has helped me as my wife and I have prepared our children for missionary service. Two of our children have already served full-time missions, and before they left, I reminded them not to judge people by their appearance or their way of living. "Don't give up on someone because you find them strange," I told them. "Try to see the inside. There might be another Carlos out there."
I am grateful to recognize that we are all children of God and to know that everyone—not just a few people—is a candidate for receiving the joy that comes from living the gospel of Jesus Christ.

2013 NFL Week 4 Preview — 5 Intriguing Storylines to Watch
Division races are starting to take shape as the NFL completes the first quarter of its 2013 schedule. Here are five intriguing storylines we'll be watching this week:
Could Seahawks-Texans Be a Super Bowl Preview?
Reliant Stadium, Houston — 1 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 29
No team has looked better than the Seattle Seahawks (3-0) thus far in the 2013 NFL season. With quarterback Russell Wilson guiding the offense and cornerback Richard Sherman locking down opponents on defense, Pete Carroll's team has become an early favorite to win the NFC. The Houston Texans (2-1) haven't been as impressive as Seattle, but any team with a defense anchored by J.J. Watt won't be manhandled. It wouldn't be a total surprise to see this pairing again at Super Bowl XLVIII in New Jersey this February; it will just be much colder then than it will be in Houston on Sunday.
Peyton Manning's Assault on the Record Book Continues
Sports Authority Stadium at Mile High, Denver — 4:25 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 29
Just three weeks into the regular season, Denver Broncos (3-0) quarterback Peyton Manning has already accumulated some eye-popping statistics: 1,143 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and zero derp faces. Manning is probably salivating at the thought of facing a flimsy Philadelphia Eagles (1-2) defense that has allowed 323 passing yards and 28.7 points per game thus far. Chip Kelly may regret his high-speed offense against the Broncos—even if the Eagles manage to score, chances are slim they can keep up with Manning and Denver's trio of game-breaking wide receivers, Wes Welker, Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas.
The Patriots Face Their First Test
Georgia Dome, Atlanta — 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 29
New England (3-0) has beaten the Bills, Jets and Buccaneers so far, but all of those teams stink. Despite their subpar record, Atlanta (1-2) is still one of the most talented teams in the NFC. It's time for them to start proving it on the field, too. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady could get his tight end back—no, not that one—as Rob Gronkowski may be healthy enough to play as hard on the field as he does in nightclubs.
A Battle of the Undefeated
Mercedes Benz Superdome, New Orleans — 8:40 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 30
Given that both teams finished 2012 with losing records, the New Orleans Saints (3-0) and Miami Dolphins (3-0) weren't expected to still be perfect three weeks into 2013. Saints quarterback Drew Brees must find a way to beat a solid Dolphins defense. Miami QB Ryan Tannehill hopes to continue to mature against a New Orleans defense that has had a renaissance under coordinator Rob Ryan, whose rotund physique may have helped revive the restaurant industry in the Big Easy, too.
A Battle of the Very Defeated
Wembley Stadium, London — 1 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 29
When the winless Pittsburgh Steelers (0-3) face the winless Minnesota Vikings (0-3) at London's Wembley Stadium, the teams won't exactly be the best example of American football for British fans' enjoyment. The way the anemic Steelers offense has struggled to score is rivaled by the manner in which the Vikings defense has been unable to stop opponents. Maybe it's for best the Brits prefer soccer. At least the fans can enjoy Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson attacking a Pittsburgh defense led by Troy Polamalu.

As superinvestors like David Einhorn, Joel Greenblatt, Mario Gabelli, and Berkshire Hathaway buy into GM, value investors start to look deeper into the auto industry to predict a possible turnaround. They start to think about whether their current strategies could lead to better earnings.
To find out what will work in today's auto industry, we have to carefully examine what has worked in the past. For investors looking into GM and Ford, "Guts: The Seven Laws of Business that Made Chrysler the World's Hottest Car Company" by Robert A. Lutz, former President of Chrysler, is a fascinating read about the intricate strategies that made Chrysler a story of success. Here is a summary of what worked for one automaker:
Split Strategies Powered a Turnaround
In Mr. Lutz's book, business success comes only from a strategy of opposites: tough financial controls coupled with provocative and creative product development. Mr. Robert A. Lutz believes that every organization must cultivate this split personality, combining common sense with unbridled creativity. The leader's role, he says, is maintaining the balance between the two. The dynamic tension between these two elements enables companies to introduce new products and achieve record profits.
On May 7, 1998, Chrysler and Germany's Daimler Benz (owner of Mercedes) shocked the international business world by announcing their merger, the largest industrial merger to date. Chrysler recovered from its second near-death experience and not only enjoyed record profits, but was named Forbes Magazine's Company of the Year.
The man who led the car company's historic renaissance was its product-development genius and iconoclastic leader, Robert A. Lutz, then Chrysler's president and vice chairman. He credits the firm's turnaround to its embrace (at his urging) of a deliberately schizophrenic corporate culture: tough financial controls coupled with a rock-the-boat, provocative, highly creative product development process. Mr. Lutz translated his accumulated wisdom into Seven Immutable Laws of Business:
1. The Customer Isn't Always Right
Customers don't have visions about the future of an industry. Customers' wishes are often misleading and, on surveys, they often tell you what they think you want to hear or what will make them look good. Listening to customers' so-called preferences has landed many carmakers in trouble.
2. The Primary Purpose of Business Is Not to Make Money
Everyone wants to make money. None of the failed companies sets out a goal of making as little money as possible. Companies that do make a lot of money almost never have that as their goal. Instead, they tend to be run by enthusiasts who come up with incredible products and services that make customers want to "rip their trouser pockets reaching for their wallets." To make money, a business must come up with products and services that demand attention.
3. When Everybody Else Is Doing It, Don't
Whether you are operating in industries or in markets, it's hard to resist fads, especially when those who profit from them invite you to play. You can and should resist their influence. Make your decisions based on the factors that really count, not on trends or fads.
4. Too Much Quality Can Ruin You
People often confuse means with goals. Few of the chasers really know what they're chasing. They assume that their idea of quality is the same as the customer's. It may not be. When it's not, consumers are bombarded with quality they never asked for, didn't want and aren't about to pay for (let alone pay a premium for). An overzealous pursuit of quality has even, on occasion, been known to jeopardize the reputations of brands already known for their excellence. Quality actually has less to do with getting rid of negatives than it does with adding strong positives.
5. Financial Controls Are Bad
Cost cutting is over-hyped in turnaround situations. The financial side of business is much too obsessed with imposing the tight controls that Wall Street loves. If they believe tight controls cut waste, they're wrong. Tight controls harm in three ways:
1. They can jeopardize an organization's ability to exploit big opportunities.
2. Because measurements are based on past performance, controls tend to sanctify the status quo. They promote a false sense of order and predictability. This gives the impression that the future is solely a matter of extrapolation, prompting managers to say such foolish things as, "That can't happen; it's not in the five-year plan."
3. With financial controls, looser frequently is better — but if you make your controls too loose, you'll find yourself in the midst of chaos.
6. Disruptive People Are an Asset
Corporate America loves to fire disruptive employees. Corporate culture prefers people who don't make waves, who don't suggest new ideas, who don't voice any concerns — in short, "yes" men and "yes" women who just follow orders, don't think and keep their mouths shut. Yet, so-called disruptive people are actually change agents. They create change, but since people most often resist change, change agents are rarely liked. They are, by definition, innovators and catalysts. Every breakthrough or invention in history has been at the hands of a change agent who would, ironically, be seen by today's corporate culture as a pain in the behind who ought to be fired as a poor team player.
Dr. Ernst Fuhrmann, Porsche's CEO in the '70s, noted, "Great employees are often the most difficult employees. But not all of the most difficult are great employees." Collectively, though they're "a pool from which pearls emerge. Even the greatest change agents — those who, if given free rein could take the organization to the top — have to learn to temper their behavior or they could self-destruct. You need to be just irritating enough to set change in motion, but not so irritating that superiors and colleagues conclude that they're better off without you."
7. Teamwork Isn't Always Good
Committees and teams can hinder excellence. Teamwork isn't always the answer. Harnessed properly, teams can do miracles, but usually teams are not harnessed properly. Teams prefer the safe, the familiar, the middle of the road. They fear originality.
Teamwork demands compromise, and breakthroughs do not come from compromise. Most groups end up devoting far more time and effort to the practice of teamsmanship than they do to working. Consensus usually kills innovation, instead of creating it. Innovation can't survive the permission process that's part of teamwork. Fear, coupled with some team members' inability to put ego aside and understand an innovative vision, can quickly kill anything daring. If everyone has to agree to the idea before it can be considered viable, progress and innovation will always suffer. Teams are bad at initiating provocative ideas and, when entrusted with someone else's great idea, teams usually mess it up.
Mr. Lutz's insights about teamwork explained why most value investing teams didn't work too well and why independent thinking is the key. The more important question is: Are GM and Ford practicing what worked for Chrysler? This would be your turn to post your thoughts about what you have found in their annual reports and presentations.

Hailing from Orlando, Florida, Anberlin formed from the ashes of various other area projects. Led by the soaring vocals of Stephen Christian, the positive-thinking Anberlin also included Joseph Milligan (guitar), Nathan Young (drums), Joey Bruce (guitar), and Deon Rexroat (bass), and presented an alternative pop/rock sound that, while inflected with the earnestness of emo, was closer to the mature stylings of Third Eye Blind. A five-song demo garnered Anberlin the attention of Seattle-based indie label Tooth & Nail, which signed the group in 2002. Blueprints for the Black Market marked the band's debut in May 2003, and Anberlin supported the album with shows alongside groups like Fall Out Boy and Story of the Year. Second guitarist Nathan Strayer later joined the lineup, and Anberlin returned in February 2005 with Never Take Friendship Personal. Their third record, Cities, appeared two years later and debuted at number 19 on the Billboard charts; soon after its release, however, Strayer made his exit and was replaced by former Acceptance guitarist Christian McAlhaney. Released in 2008, New Surrender saw the retooled band joining the roster of Universal Republic Records and enlisting the help of Neal Avron, who had formerly produced records for Fall Out Boy, Yellowcard, and New Found Glory. In early 2010, Anberlin went into the studio with Grammy-winning producer Brendan O'Brien, and later that year released their fifth studio album, Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place. The compilation Dancing Between the Fibers of Time: The Best of Anberlin's Tooth & Nail Years appeared two years later. In late 2012, Anberlin released their sixth studio album, Vital, which featured a heavier rock and metal sound colored by some electronic flourishes.

Your Wish Is Granted
This story appears in the January 1998 issue of HomeOfficeMag.com. Subscribe »
Somehow the image of Martha Egges, a homebased business owner from Middleton, Wisconsin, knocking on the padlocked, riveted, ironclad door of big government seemed ludicrous. Which is why Egges was skeptical about her chances of Uncle Sam actually handing her any money to develop her idea for virtual reality software that would allow researchers to collaborate electronically. When her sister, an engineer in Boulder, Colorado, told her about an associate who'd gotten a government grant to develop his product, Egges says her first reaction was, "That can't be right."
Shortly after that, she attended a meeting describing the government's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, and Egges was on her way down the red-tape carpet leading to the government grant gala. She started networking with other small-business owners who had successfully received SBIR grants, attended regional programs explaining government opportunities, got on the mailing lists of government agencies looking for SBIR partners and attended national SBIR conferences for small businesses.
Immersed in the politics of politics, Egges soon realized three things:
1. The government was actually there to help her. "Even though you, as the entrepreneur, have to do the lion's share of the work, there are actually a lot of free or low-cost government resources to help you pull together a proposal, which is the only real tool you have to win this kind of grant," Egges says.
2. The government's looking for a few good ideas, not at the size or location of a business. The fact that her company, Network Technologies & Applications Inc., was homebased "never came up in the process," Egges says.
3. The rumors of hard work and red tape are all true. "It's a very competitive process, and it required a lot of background work," says Egges. "People are probably intimidated by the amount of effort it takes to put together a proposal. There's a stringent administrative review of your proposal before it even gets to the technical review. We were initially thinking it was more than we could take on."
But take it on she did. And when Egges heard that NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, had bestowed her with a grant for $69,000, her initial reaction was "disbelief and jubilation."
Now Egges is hooked. "In some ways, it's a very difficult process, but there are many unexpected opportunities that come up as a result of going through it," she says. "You develop a much larger network and identify research partnerships that, in our case, led to other opportunities and other sources of funding."
For Egges, the door to government now has a welcome mat on its step. She plans to continue pursuing government grants as a regular part of her business and currently has her eye on a few prospects, including the National Institute of Standards & Technology-sponsored Advanced Technology Program, which would provide millions of investment dollars. The experience "opened doors in many areas, not just in government but also in the private sector," says Egges. "As soon as we start talking about research ideas, people are suddenly intrigued."
Risking Business
By Janean Chun
According to a recent survey by the Independent Insurance Agents of America Inc. (IIAA), homebased business owners are among the most underinsured of all business owners. Survey results show that more than 60 percent of in-home businesses are not properly insured. "It's been evident to us for a while that this was a sector of the community that was at risk," says Amy Gergely, consumer communications advocate for the IIAA. "Homebased business owners who are pretty savvy when it comes to other financial matters still remain uninsured."
Indeed, 44 percent of respondents said they didn't purchase business insurance because they thought they were already covered. Another 10.9 percent said they thought their business was too small, while 10.7 percent didn't have the time to look for a policy. Only 9.2 percent thought coverage was too expensive or said they didn't have the money (Gergely says a business policy can cost as little as $150 a year), and 6.2 percent were unaware they needed insurance.
Why would homebased business owners think they're exempt from needing insurance? "I wouldn't call it a mental block," says Gergely. "I'd call it a misunderstanding."
Which still doesn't explain the high number of renegade homebased business owners. Fifty-six percent neglected to purchase insurance even after they experienced a loss. "What they're not considering is that next time, it might be a big deal."
Reversal Of Fortune
By Janean Chun
Among the sweet victories in the federal government's balanced budget deal was a particularly tasty portion for homebased business owners. One of the provisions overturned the Supreme Court's Soliman decision of almost two years ago, restoring the home office deduction for business owners who perform daily administrative or management functions in their homes. Though the deduction won't actually kick in until December 31, 1998, Rep. Jim Talent (R-MO), chair of the House Small Business Committee, called its inclusion in the budget a victory for homebased business owners. "[This budget] is part of the changing approach of government," he says. "We've been saying we're going to reward ingenuity, and then we turn around and have tax laws that penalize [homebased business owners]. But this law changes that. The message we're trying to send is one of support rather than one of suspicion."
Not that the hypocrisy has evaporated--it's just starting to work to homebased business owners' advantage. "Several years ago, we wouldn't have gotten these little changes," says Talent. "But I think people are sensitized to it now, and a lot of that is due to the lobbying of small business. By the end of it, I think everybody was not only willing to put [the provision] in, but they all wanted to boast about how important they thought it was. That really shows you we won the debate as well as the legislative battle."
Eyes On The Prize
By Janean Chun
Business trendies have become preoccupied with thinking their way out of the box; homebased business owners, on the other hand, are trying to think their way in. Dun & Bradstreet's (D&B) Business Solutions in a Box is just one of the prizes luring home office owners to compete in the Homebased Entrepreneur Challenge, a new contest sponsored by D&B and Entrepreneur's Home Office magazine. Top awards include a cash prize of $10,000, an IBM laptop computer, Proven Edge Professional Edition Software and Business Solutions in a Box, which includes personalized problem solvers ranging from insurance and financial services to marketing and risk management. George Martin, executive vice president of mass marketing for D&B, calls Business Solutions in a Box "an enabling program."
How do you qualify for the goodies? Simple. Just gripe to us. In 100 words or less, describe your business challenge, headache, nightmare, roadblock or black cloud. We may be able to help. "We want to help businesses resolve their problems earlier and more quickly," says Martin, "by tapping into our huge database and our years of experience."
Two monthly winners--from November 1997 through March 1998--will receive Business Solutions in a Box and a one-year subscription to this magazine. All entries must be received by March 31, 1998.

Book Review
Going Solo
By Debra Phillips
Being a successful homebased consultant is the dream of many an entrepreneur--and for good reason. Yet even as the demand for expertise in any number of fields grows, that doesn't mean it's an easy path to prosperity for those wishing to counsel others on everything from computers to advertising. If it were easy, everybody would do it, right?
Well, no, but William J. Bond's Going Solo: Developing a Home-Based Consulting Business from the Ground Up (McGraw-Hill, $29.95 cloth) makes the road less bumpy. "You can sell your valuable experience and knowledge for excellent fees," Bond says.
Although targeted to those in the early stages of their homebased consultancies, Going Solo can easily serve as a refresher course for those who find their businesses stalled--or themselves uninspired. Reorganize your home office, for instance. Reassess your client-winning skills. Along with Bond's words of optimism, such back-to-basics activities couldn't help but make the road you're navigating a little smoother.

ROSLYN HARBOR, N.Y. - THE event was scheduled for 11 a.m., but by 10:15 every one of the 40-odd seats under the tent at the Nassau County Museum of Art had been occupied.
Clutching paintings shrouded in bubble wrap, lamps, knickknacks and plastic bags containing jewelry, the first of nearly 300 people who came to have their family treasures evaluated by experts from the New York office of Bonhams auction house sat patiently in the gathering heat.
The event, on July 14, was sponsored by the Nassau County Bar Association's We Care Fund and raised $5,000 for needy children. Visitors paid $25 for the first appraisal and $15 for every subsequent item.
In the first row, Loretta Dionisio, of Lido Beach, held a large framed oil painting of a solemn-looking woman looming out of a dark background.
"I actually bid for it on eBay," Ms. Dionisio said. "It's dated to the early 1700's and I paid over $3,000 for it."
Nearby, Leslie Fitzpatrick, of Northport, stood guard over a small wooden sewing table, which she was convinced was Hepplewhite. "When I picked it up, I thought it was about 1850," Ms. Fitzpatrick said. "Then I started reading about it and thought maybe it was 1820's or earlier."
There was good news and bad news from the experts.
"You did fine," Alan Fausel, Bonhams's paintings expert, said, eyeing Ms. Dionisio's work. "It is Dutch, and it is old. I think it's worth about what you paid for it. But there's a lot of fake stuff out there on the Internet."
Ms. Dionisio appeared happy but unsurprised. "I knew it was real," she said.
Frank Maraschiello, an expert in 20th-century decorative arts, had less welcome news for Ms. Fitzpatrick. "It's 1920's, I would say," he said.
When Ms. Fitzpatrick bristled, Mr. Maraschiello called in Jon King, a generalist, who concurred. "You can see where it's been machine-cut," Mr. King said. "It's worth about $250 at auction, I'm afraid."
Ms. Fitzpatrick still remained unconvinced. "I know more about sewing tables than they do," she said.
Her companion and sister-in-law, Pamela Tamaddon, was in a sunnier mood. Mr. Fausel had just informed her that two pictures she had recently hauled out of the trash while walking her dog in Sea Cliff were by the Japanese artist Sadao Watanabe, and were each worth $2,500 to $3,000.
"I thought they were absolutely hideous," Ms. Tamaddon said. "But I thought: 'You know what? They look like something.' "
An enameled watch on a chain from about 1900 that had an estimated value of $1,500 to $2,000 was not one of the most expensive items brought in. But like many of the pieces, it told a personal story.
"It belonged to my husband's grandmother, who died about 15 years ago at the age of 101," said Bonnie Gundel, of Little Neck. Ms. Gundel said that the grandmother had been a Holocaust survivor and that, as a newly married woman in Germany early in the last century, she had received it as a gift from her husband, who had brought it back from a trip to England.
Virginia Salem, the director of Bonhams's jewelry department, raised her eyepiece to the watch. "The nicest thing," she said, "is the inscription: 'May the hands of time point to happy hours.' "

Body pulled from Hillsdale Lake identified
May 27, 2014
Paola Friends of a man who apparently drowned at Hillsdale Lake while boating with his children say he was a devoted family man and respected kickboxer.
Authorities say 45-year-old Mark Selbee drowned at Hillsdale Lake on Saturday. His body was recovered Sunday evening from the lake in Miami and Johnson counties. Someone who saw two young children alone on the boat called for help.
Selbee won four championships with the International Kickboxing Federation between 2002 and 2006, when he retired from competition.
Authorities say it is unclear why Selbee went into the water. An autopsy will determine exact cause of death.
A celebration of Selbee's life is scheduled for 11 a.m. to noon Friday at United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood.

A half-century ago, 14 percent of college degrees were awarded to people who majored in the humanities. Today, only 7 percent of graduates in the country are humanities majors. Even over the last decade alone, the number of incoming students at Harvard who express interest in becoming humanities majors has dropped by a third.
Most people give an economic explanation for this decline. Accounting majors get jobs. Lit majors don't. And there's obviously some truth to this. But the humanities are not only being bulldozed by an unforgiving job market. They are committing suicide because many humanists have lost faith in their own enterprise.
Back when the humanities were thriving, the leading figures had a clear definition of their mission and a fervent passion for it. The job of the humanities was to cultivate the human core, the part of a person we might call the spirit, the soul, or, in D.H. Lawrence's phrase, "the dark vast forest."
This was the most inward and elemental part of a person. When you go to a funeral and hear a eulogy, this is usually the part they are talking about. Eulogies aren't résumés. They describe the person's care, wisdom, truthfulness and courage. They describe the million little moral judgments that emanate from that inner region.
The humanist's job was to cultivate this ground — imposing intellectual order upon it, educating the emotions with art in order to refine it, offering inspiring exemplars to get it properly oriented.
Somewhere along the way, many people in the humanities lost faith in this uplifting mission. The humanities turned from an inward to an outward focus. They were less about the old notions of truth, beauty and goodness and more about political and social categories like race, class and gender. Liberal arts professors grew more moralistic when talking about politics but more tentative about private morality because they didn't want to offend anybody.
To the earnest 19-year-old with lofty dreams of self-understanding and moral greatness, the humanities in this guise were bound to seem less consequential and more boring.
So now the humanities are in crisis. Rescuers are stepping forth. On Thursday, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences released a report called "The Heart of the Matter," making the case for the humanities and social sciences. (I was a member of this large commission, though I certainly can't take any credit for the result.)
The report is important, and you should read it. It focuses not only on the external goods the humanities can produce (creative thinking, good writing), but also the internal transformation (spiritual depth, personal integrity). It does lack some missionary zeal that hit me powerfully as a college freshman when the humanities were in better shape.
One of the great history teachers in those days was a University of Chicago professor named Karl Weintraub. He poured his soul into transforming his students' lives, but, even then, he sometimes wondered if they were really listening. Late in life, he wrote a note to my classmate Carol Quillen, who now helps carry on this legacy as president of Davidson College.
Teaching Western Civ, Weintraub wrote, "seems to confront me all too often with moments when I feel like screaming suddenly: 'Oh, God, my dear student, why CANNOT you see that this matter is a real, real matter, often a matter of the very being, for the person, for the historical men and women you are looking at — or are supposed to be looking at!'
"I hear these answers and statements that sound like mere words, mere verbal formulations to me, but that do not have the sense of pain or joy or accomplishment or worry about them that they ought to have if they were TRULY informed by the live problems and situations of the human beings back there for whom these matters were real. The way these disembodied words come forth can make me cry, and the failure of the speaker to probe for the open wounds and such behind the text makes me increasingly furious.
"If I do not come to feel any of the love which Pericles feels for his city, how can I understand the Funeral Oration? If I cannot fathom anything of the power of the drive derived from thinking that he has a special mission, what can I understand of Socrates? ... How can one grasp anything about the problem of the Galatian community without sensing in one's bones the problem of worrying about God's acceptance?
"Sometimes when I have spent an hour or more, pouring all my enthusiasm and sensitivities into an effort to tell these stories in the fullness in which I see and experience them, I feel drained and exhausted. I think it works on the student, but I do not really know."
Teachers like that were zealous for the humanities. A few years in that company leaves a lifelong mark.

In this visualization, the Gulf Stream is seen as the dark red current coming into the Atlantic from the Gulf of Mexico.
A changing Gulf Stream off the East Coast has destabilized frozen methane deposits trapped under nearly 4,000 square miles of seafloor, scientists reported Wednesday. And since methane is even more potent than carbon dioxide as a global warming gas, the researchers said, any large-scale release could have significant climate impacts.
Temperature changes in the Gulf Stream are "rapidly destabilizing methane hydrate along a broad swathe of the North American margin," the experts said in a study published Wednesday in the peer-reviewed journal Nature.
Using seismic records and ocean models, the team estimated that 2.5 gigatonnes of frozen methane hydrate are being destabilized and could separate into methane gas and water.
It is not clear if that is happening yet, but that methane gas would have the potential to rise up through the ocean and into the atmosphere, where it would add to the greenhouse gases warming Earth.
The 2.5 gigatonnes isn't enough to trigger a sudden climate shift, but the team worries that other areas around the globe might be seeing a similar destabilization.
Methane hydrate samples
"It is unlikely that the western North Atlantic margin is the only area experiencing changing ocean currents," they noted. "Our estimate ... may therefore represent only a fraction of the methane hydrate currently destabilizing globally."
The wider destabilization evidence, co-author Ben Phrampus told NBC News, includes data from the Arctic and Alaska's northern slope in the Beaufort Sea.
And it's not just under the seafloor that methane has been locked up. Some Arctic land area are seeing permafrost thaw, which could release methane stored there as well.
An expert who was not part of the study said it suggests that methane could become a bigger climate factor than carbon dioxide.
"We may approach a turning point" from a warming driven by man-made carbon dioxide to a warming driven by methane, Jurgen Mienert, the geology department chair at Norway's University of Tromso, told NBC News.
"The interactions between the warming Arctic Ocean and the potentially huge methane-ice reservoirs beneath the Arctic Ocean floor point towards increasing instability," he added.
For thousands of years, permafrost has trapped Siberia's carbon-rich soil, a compost of Ice Age plant and animal remains. But global warming is melting the permafrost and exposing the soil, causing highly flammable methane to seep out. NBC's Jim Maceda reports.
He also noted, however, that "one of the big unknowns is the magnitude of rapid methane escape from the ocean floor, and how natural filter systems react and affect the future ocean, its environment and the climate."
Relate: Thawing Arctic permafrost is releasing methane
Another unknown is what caused the Gulf Stream changes, said Phrampus, an earth sciences PhD candidate at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.
"Multiple events can play a factor, such as changing sea level or an addition of cold/fresh water from the north," Phrampus said, adding he was hopeful that the changes might be "reversible under their own influence."
But, he added, "we need more data to resolve this, and we are currently investigating this process."

Halfway between a stylus and a pen, the Smartpen 3 writes on paper but captures your notes and drawings digitally with added audio tied to your strokes
Izeneko artikulu hau "Livescribe Smartpen 3 Black Edition review: the Pen 2.0" zen Samuel Gibbs-ek idatzitako, for theguardian.com on Monday 7th March 2016 07.00 UTC
The pen hasn't changed much since the successful invention of the ballpoint pen in 1938. We've had pressurised containers that work in space, different types of ink and slicker ball designs, but fundamentally it works the same way it always has.
The stylus is arguably the next evolution of the pen – a pen without ink. For many, ordea, it is a step too far, lacking the tactility of pen on paper and ditching the best thing about a ballpoint pen: it can write just about anywhere without any special equipment.
The Pen 2.0
The Livescribe system, of which the Smartpen 3 is the third generation, is a halfway house that's potentially more useful than either a stylus or a pen.
What you've got is a pen that looks and feels like a pen, writes on paper with a ballpoint tip and ink, just like any other biro, but it also digitises your scrawls on the page. What you write on paper is exactly replicated in a digital form, without the need to photograph or scan the page.
How does it work?
A camera in the end of the pen recognises tiny dot patterns on the pages of special Livescribe paper to track motion. It means it won't work on any old paper, although as a pen it obviously does, but Livescribe-compatible paper is available in various forms, notepads and Moleskine books, or you can print your own using a laser printer.
The notes are synced to the Livescribe+ app on Android or iOS smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, but the pen works and records notes just fine on its own, meaning you don't have to have it connected to your smartphone all the time to work.
Captured notes can be output line-by-line as images, as an image of the page or as a PDF and shared via any app or service you have installed on your smartphone or tablet.
The app also has a trick up its sleeve in the form of so-called Pencasts: audio recordings bound to your pen strokes. The app records sound via the smartphone or tablet's built-in microphone, or an external mic plugged into the headphones socket. The app is not able to record phone calls made on the device running the app, but can use a pick-up microphone to record from another phone.
Audio is then timestamped to your handwriting, meaning that you can playback precisely what was being recorded at the time you wrote a particular word just by tapping on it. It makes transcribing interviews or meeting notes so much faster by getting to the right point in the recording instantly. It's fantastic.
Pencasts can be played back using the app or via a PDF with the audio embedded within it. To do so you need to load the PDF into Livescribe's Player – a web app – which is a bit of a faff, but it means anyone can play back a shared PDF even if they don't own a Livescribe pen.
Livescribe also does handwriting recognition. Its success depends on how bad your handwriting is. It will recognise mine pretty accurately when I concentrate and write neatly. Hala ere, it starts to struggle as my handwriting scrawls when writing at speed, which I normally am when interviewing someone.
Differences between iOS and Android
The Android app is a poor relative of the iOS app, crucially missing an automatic send feature, which allows users to effectively sync their Livescribe notes with a notebook in Evernote. You can send notes in the form of images, PDFs or Pencasts to Evernote from the Livescribe Android app, but you have to do it manually.
It's also worth noting that notes are synced between different devices running the Livescribe+ app, but not Pencasts, which are tied to the device they were recorded on unless shared via other means.
Exploding pens
This is the second version of the Smartpen 3 I have tested. Lehena, the Moleskin edition, died after overheating. I charged it using a Qualcomm Quick Charge compatible USB charger (the pen does not come with its own power adapter), which was fine.
I put it in my bag and went to a meeting, but when I pulled it out to use it 30 minutes later it was unresponsive and too hot to handle. Just over 30 minutes later it had cooled off, but was completely dead.
- Controls for pairing the pen, grabazio, pausing and stopping Pencasts, as well as starring, flagging or labelling notes are drawn as icons on the notepad pages – tap them with the pen to use them
- The non-pen end is a capacitive stylus, hiding the microUSB port, but it doesn't stay in the end very securely
- Sketches with the pen work just as well as written notes – artistic talent required
The Livescribe Smartpen 3 comes in various different models, including a new revised Black edition with a better weight distribution and slightly slimmer build. The Livescribe Smartpen 3 Black Edition costs £120 and comes with a small refill-style 50-sheet notepad and one ballpoint refill.
Livescribe-compatible notepads start at around £3 each and refills for the pen, £1 each.
The Livescribe Smartpen 3 isn't perfect. Having to have a smartphone with you to record Pencasts isn't as good as recording on the device itself, particularly if you're in a rush. The Android app isn't ready for primetime yet and the fact that the first version I was sent overheated and died is worrying.
But for speeding up the digitising of notes I can't fault it. The pen perfectly replicates my scrawls, and when exported to Evernote it means I have a duplicate of my notes wherever I am. The Pencasts also speed up transcription no end. The pen is a decent writing instrument, particularly the Black Edition which feels more like a large pen with good weight distribution.
It will always have niche appeal but for anyone who makes notes, particularly while recording audio, it is an excellent tool.
Pros: Digital notes from paper, feels like a pen, writes like a pen, cross-platform, syncs audio to written notes, works without being attached to a phone, many sources of compatible paper, idazkera aitorpena
Cons: Android app not very developed, garestia, requires special paper, first pen failed

Pressure holding pumps are be used to maintain a constant pressure in a closed heating or air-conditioning system.
A pump-based pressure holding system is comprised of one or more pumps connected in series. The pumps can be fitted with a speed regulator, e.g. frequency converter, to maintain correct pressure within the system. In this case a pressure expansion tank is not necessary because the pumps themselves are able to regulate the pressure.
Pressure holding systems using speed-regulated pumps are superior to systems that employ expansion vessels. In the latter case, a constant-speed pump that maintains a constant flow can give rise to pressure surges when the pump starts and stops. Furthermore, a pressure holding system requires less physical space since there is no expansion vessel.A pressure expansion tank combined with a pressure holding pump can be used to remove air from process water. A small volume of water is filled into the container, which is pressureless. When the pressure falls to atmospheric pressure, most of the air is released. A similar volume of water is pumped back into the system by a pressure holding pump to maintain the desired pressure in the system.

Sometimes, when I whine about the Packers not doing enough in free agency and not adding needed pieces to the team, I want to stop myself so I don't just seem like a chronic complainer. But I do it mostly because I really believe more could be done. Well, now I can add Nick Barnett to my side of this argument (according to jsonline)- along with Charles Woodson and LeRoy Butler. All of these guys have talked about bringing in other guys and the need for additional pieces. As Bedard says, the team under TT has been remarkably quiet w/re to speaking out of turn, so Barnett's refreshingly honest comments are welcome.
"We have Jenkins on the outside, Pickett on the inside; we'll have Jolly with whatever happens with his situation. But the years that we've been very good on defense, we've had good depth on the defensive line with some good quality. We have some young guys coming up, but it's always good to have that very good depth at d-line….but everybody knows we need more guys. Obviously we lost some guys in free agency. It's not a knock against the guys we have. We can all get better."
If the Pack struggles or goes even 8-8 or 9-7 this year and TT survives, I would imagine we might start hearing even more of these kinds of comments from players heading into next year. Lots of players and fans are willing to be quiet out of respect for someone else's job (i.e. TT), but not if that someone is given plenty of time and fails to produce a winner.

Raymond Carver, frequently compard to Chekov, was one of America's greatest short story authors. His stories center on dysfunctional relationships and broken spirits, which are exposed yet dignified by Carver's sparse elegance. Bay Area writer Carol Sklenicka, author of a new Carver biography, Raymond Carver: A Writer's Life, will speak at the Mechanic's Institute Library tonight at 6pm ($12) about her work and about Carver's life, from his working-class origins to his battles with substance abuse and, in the end, cancer. The SF Chronicle writes, "Raymond Carver's life, as related in the exhaustive and definitive new biography by Carol Sklenicka, reads like a Raymond Carver story."

Whoa! Anyone else getting a flashback of old school Britney Spears?
The 31-year-old mother of two has landed the cover of Shape magazine, and in the June issue, Spears shows off her toned abs that are reminiscent of her "Baby One More Time" days in 1999.
However, 14 years later, Spears admits that maintaining her body is not as easy as it used to be...particularly when it comes to keeping her backside in shape.
"I like it, then again, I hate it," Spears says. "I'm in my 30s now, so I have to work harder to keep it 'up.'"
So what does her hard workout routine entail?
"I'm doing 90 minutes of yoga twice a week in addition to a lot of cardio — hour-long sessions three times a week with my trainer, Tony Martinez," Spears reveals. This conditioning will get Spears in shape for her upcoming performance stint in Las Vegas. While a start date has yet to be confirmed, it is rumored Spears will perform 40 alternating weekend shows at Planet Hollywood's PH Live.
"The [Vegas] performances won't be simple — they'll be a massive party from start to finish," Spears says. "And to pull this off, I have to be in top condition and running at full speed."
This also includes a more restricted diet regimen.
"Dieting is tough," the "Scream and Shout" singer admits, "because my specialties are spaghetti, brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I try not to make those too often or I'll eat the whole bowl of dough."
Spears also cites the Nutrisystem weight loss program — specifically a shake for breakfast and lunch plus a dinner of protein and veggies — for keeping her healthy.
However, the Southern girl can't resist splurging on Kentucky Fried Chicken from time to time. After shooting her Shape cover in March, Spears was photographed carrying two bags of KFC out of the fast food chain's location in Thousand Oaks, California. Each was filled with fried chicken and side dishes.
Hey, we all have cheat days, right? And clearly whatever Spears is doing is working for her love life. The singer is still going strong with her boyfriend of three months, David Lucado.

Right, with the pressure of finally updating the discography, I've conveniently decided to get a few other things done first...
Regulars pages of Dr Walsh and Pete Zarustica have been updated.
Sounds section has been updated with Pacific Reefer's re-working of Pacific (already mentioned earlier) and a tribute track to 808 State by Nick Johnson. Check it out:
While you're there also make sure you check out Pete's mix of Bond, if you haven't already. Graham likes it.

Student dies after being pulled from pool
14-year-old dies at Manchester, Connecticut High School
A 14-year-old student died Wednesday after he was pulled from a Manchester High School swimming pool during a swim class, police said.
The freshman student was participating in a class led by a physical education teacher Wednesday morning when he was found under water, Manchester police Capt. Chris Davis said. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.
The student was identified as Malvrick Donkor, who was originally from Ghana and moved to the area only a few months earlier.
Davis said there will be an extensive review into the circumstances that led to the boy's death.
"At this point, there are a lot of questions that have to get answered," he said. "It's too soon to determine exactly what happened."
Emergency responders provided treatment at the scene, and the boy was taken to Manchester Memorial Hospital.
In a recorded message sent to parents, Superintendent Richard Kisiel asked for prayers for the boy's family and said support personnel would be available at the school for students.
In January, a 15-year-old boy drowned in a school swimming pool during a supervised swim class in neighboring East Hartford.
A high school football game that was scheduled for Wednesday between Manchester and East Hartford was postponed following the boy's death.

With the frantic bowl now ended, there is time to reflect on important figure lost 2012, a who http://www.wholesalejerseysfromchina.us.com followed his own advice.Are the numbers for real, though?I remained following them after I dropped tickets.<br />DAVIE - Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante and center Pouncey missed practice again on Wednesday.
Lack had http://www.authenticcheapjerseys.us.com 2 GAA and .911 save percentage as Brynas finished sixth the 12-team league.His development has been wonky from the start and thus, I think we should look at his stuff, age, and command to determine what might happen this http://www.elitecheapnfljerseyswholesale.com and beyond.32, Grubbs was the No.Per : The New Knicks continue to pursue advance of the Feb.I thought it was the best finish to a half we've had a time, on both sides of the ball.
That was initial, emotional and first reaction to the release of the audio video tape last night.11 and 12 at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex, Cranberry Township.He also led the team last year snaps for a wide receiver.Guys like Kane, Thornton, Smythe, Seguin, Segei Fedorov, Radulov and more have played http://www.goodcheapnfljerseys.com Spengler.Once he's comfortable his surroundings, he's got that him.
Esposito was traded to the New Rangers during the 1975 and would finish his career on Broadway.Valley is amazing place, special people.By posting your comment, you agree to allow Orange County Register Communications, Inc.i could definitely a move where if gardy, ellsbury, or headley struggle, they promote frazier and torres, and move either castro or gregorious to 3rd base..I'm not saying the boat trip had anything to do with his poor outing.
Then there is the aspect of Succop's contract.This is also the Spurs fourth game over the last six nights, they might not be at the very best defensively.It's hard http://www.saleusajerseys.com get to know a player when you have, say, 15 minutes and everyone wants him, too.they can draw out their money grab.They're the glue that holds our defense together, Schwartz said.
The halftime adjustments Gase made were unlike anything Philbin or Sparano have made.and Collins 9 Puritan Rd $258.Going into his sophomore year 1999, he was named the starter at quarterback.Altman put out another video tonight that showed Schwarber going through some full speed outfield drills and I have to say��I'm a little less nervous then I was earlier.Having made significant contributions to surgery for more than a century, the & Medical Devices Companies are the business of reaching more patients and restoring more lives.
