Just wrote about drones and journalism school for Fast Company.

Drones are cool. Slingshots are cool. At @fastcompany, I just discovered how Utah scientists are launching drones via giant slingshots. That is very cool. (via Behold The Slingshot Drone | Fast Company)
The government is in the process of liberalizing the rules concerning the commercial use of drones because they are so useful in police work, real estate, the movie industry, and other fields. It will probably take one of these drones smacking into an airliner or photographing Angela Jolie in the nude before there is a reaction.
A few days after I wrote for @fastcompany on how Hollywood and the real estate industry now use unmanned drone aircraft for location shoots, the @nytimes ran an article on page A1 about… the exact same thing. It's good to know that the Times gets their article ideas from the best!

For July's QuickTalk, each member made an influence map showing aspects of art history that affect their work. We'll be posting each member's map over the next few days, so keep watching!
Here are nine of my biggest visual influences. Of course, this list could go on forever, and like most of us, I'm sure I'm influenced by things I'm not even aware of. But this is what I've picked (left to right, top to bottom):
Gorgio de Chirico: The underrated forerunner of Surrealism (which I'm big into as a whole, really).
Edward Hopper: A quintessential American realist and hella moody.
Pulp magazine illustration (image by Norman Saunders): Guns, gangsters, aliens, cowboys, monsters—it's all there. I'm drawn to pulp art for how weird and extreme it is, and how big and bold the technique is.
Children's art: I always find kid art inspiring for its emotional rawness and limitless imagination.
Esther Pearl Watson: OK, so I'm big into UFO's, but whatever Esther's subject matter, she handles it with a personal touch and wonderfully unrefined simplicity.
UFO/extraterrestrial culture: Since I was a kid, I've been obsessed with aliens. Visually, UFO culture ranges from cartoony, pop images and Roswell kitsch to abductee's drawings of their captors and creative interpretations of ancient imagery.
Maurice Sendak: I've noticed most of my favorite children's books are about little boys who sneak out of the house somehow in the middle of the night.
Georgia O'Keefe: O'Keefe painted everything in big, simple shapes. I remember a professor telling me once, "If you want to paint like Georgia O'Keefe, just paint like Georgia O'Keefe." Vague advice, but I took it to heart.
Theodore "Dr. Seuss" Giesel: A Seuss illustration is full of color, movement, brilliantly realized imagination and a visual rhythm that matches his written verse perfectly.
Hey! Here's a thing I made for QDC. It was hard to pick just a few influences, but talk to me at a party or something and I'll fill in the gaps for you.

School of Health Sciences – Pre-Med
The next Pre-Med intake is January 2015. The Pre-Medical course and degree offerings (BSc) at IUHS are designed to provide the necessary academic foundation to undertake the study of Medicine. The philosophy of the department is to not only prepare a student for medical school with the necessary undergraduate sciences but to enlighten them and draw the links between those studies and Medicine.

Once upon a time ladies wanted to gain weight to be more curvaceous. Now girls will do anything to shrink their frames. Regardless of the message, the fact that women were encouraged to take pills to gain weight quickly is just as silly as taking pills to lose weight quickly.
But these ads are pretty great.

Gestation and birth can be hazardous, and possibly psychologically difficult for the woman doing it, and I'm not sure it can ever be ethical to pay someone to take that kind of risk.No? Pregnancy entails life-threatening risks, but on the same order as 9 months of working as a roofer, airplane pilot, sanitation worker, farmer, or truck driver. It's not nearly as bad as 9 months as a fisherman, logger, or steel worker.
Is it really that different from selling a kidney? How do we quanitify that in financial terms?Not really that different, no - donating a kidney is only about twice as dangerous as pregnancy - it's up into "fisherman for a year" range. But does that comparison work the way you think it should? The case for kidney sales is much clearer than the case for surrogacy sales or prostitution. Price controls create shortages, and a price limit of $0 is contributing to worsening shortages that kill thousands every year.
I don't think comparing infertility to conditions that affect a person's daily life or lifespan is appropriate.My daughter has had a much greater effect on my daily life than my ability to walk, and a slightly greater effect than my ability to correct my impaired vision. In hindsight I would have ranked infertility as preferable to total paralysis or blindness but not preferable to total deafness or anything partially ameliorable with a wheelchair. It seems unnecessarily harsh to criticize anyone for having similar preferences and the foresight to realize them in the face of status quo bias.
to have to choose between feeding your family and bearing a child for someone elseThis is another argument that seems to be intended as a "con" for allowing paid surrogating, but turns into a "pro" upon examination. If that's really the choice being faced, then wouldn't anyone banning the latter option be practically murderers? Even shaming infertile women into avoiding the offer would start to sound morally questionable.
Not every fishing trip a fisherman takes will involve risking their life.Yes, it will. Every trip to the store involves risking your life. We just choose to ignore most such risks (including in pregnancy - ever heard anyone append "and I hope it doesn't kill you!" to "congratulations!"?) once the odds drop low enough.

I have an idea for a classroom theme.
I'll be teaching 6th grade English-Language Arts next year, and I remember my 6th English teacher had an underwater theme in her classroom. Everyone really loved it, and we got to bring in little things to decorate, and she had this really cute board called "Our School of Fish" with our fishy-faced pictures on it. It was a really wonderful environment, so I kind of want to do something similar in my class.
I'm toying with the idea of having a jungle theme? And my students will be "Explorers of Literature?" I'm sorry but not sorry that I'm so incredibly corny, but I think it might work and be kind of fun?
Anyway, I was thinking that with each learned objective, we'd add a new leaf to a massive vine that can wrap around room, high up on the wall? And I could have a board that features students like "Explorers of the Week/Month?" And have another board called "Gems of the Jungle" that features awesome student work?
I'm really just thinking these things out loud. I want students to feel engaged with my room and feel like it's a stimulating, creative, nurturing environment, but I also don't want my room to distract them. So I suppose moderation is key. Keeping things organized is key and will be at the forefront of how I go about planning my room. Keeping all this affordable is also key, so I'll probably try to hand-make the decorative things—like the vine. Or have the students do a little craft-y thing. Like I said—this idea isn't fully fleshed-out yet.
Ideas on how to make my room functional but still incorporate a theme? Is this theme even good at all?

Larry Riley makes it clear: Prepare yourself for life after Anthony RandolphFiled under: News; Tagged as: Andris Biedrins, Anthony Randolph, Anthony Tolliver, Caron Butler, Chris Hunter, Devean George, Larry Riley, Monta Ellis, Raja Bell, Speedy Claxton, Stephen Curry
By Geoff Lepper
I'm not sure if Anthony Randolph rents or owns his in-season home here in the Bay Area, so I don't know which piece of advice to give him. It's either:
a) Call your landlord and find out what you need to do to ensure to get your security deposit back.
b) Call a good real-estate agent and get started on staging that sucker, because with this market, it could take months to sell.
Whatever is the case, it appears obvious from general manager Larry Riley's comments Saturday night that Randolph is on the block and that the Warriors expect to give up the second-year forward in the near future.
Anthony Tolliver stays, Speedy Claxton disappears — and so have the Warriors' chances of picking up an asset
By Geoff Lepper
Word comes from this morning's shootaround (via Jaymee Sire's Tweet) that the Warriors are keeping forward Anthony Tolliver and making room by cutting loose guard Speedy Claxton.
The move is both expected to some extent — someone prediced correctly almost a week ago that the W's would keep Tolliver — and yet also surprising, in that Claxton represented one of the Warriors' largest expiring contracts at $5.2 million.
Honestly, I thought it would be either Chris Hunter or Devean George who got the kiss off to allow the Warriors to retain Tolliver, who had already served out two 10-day contracts and had to be given a deal for the remainder of the year or let go.
The Warriors Report: The return of the Don Nelson Not-So-Much Comedy HourFiled under: The Morning Report; Tagged as: Andre Miller, Andris Biedrins, Anthony Morrow, Brandon Roy, Chris Hunter, Don Nelson, Gilbert Arenas, Juwan Howard, Martell Webster, Monta Ellis, Ronny Turiaf, Stephen Jackson
By Geoff Lepper
Your daily guided tour through the national and local media coverage of the always-entertaining Golden State Warriors.
San Francisco Chronicle (Rusty Simmons): Nobody does internally directed criticism like Don Nelson: "They posted when they wanted, they penetrated when they wanted, and they made us pay whatever price they wanted. We just didn't compete."
Also, Anthony Morrow and Chris Hunter will have the remainder of their contracts guaranteed this week, unless the team waives them. There's no chance of that happening with Morrow, but there's still a little bit of doubt on Hunter, although I'd hazard a guess that it's a 90 to 95 percent "yes." The team is expected to make its decision on Monday.
Game 30 (Warriors 103, Celtics 99), The Wrapup: Choosing a player for their defensive prowess — can Don Nelson and the Warriors sustain this philosophy?Filed under: Uncategorized; Tagged as: Andris Biedrins, C.J. Watson, Corey Maggette, Don Nelson, Monta Ellis, Rajon Rondo, Ronny Turiaf, Stephen Curry, Stephen Jackson
By Geoff Lepper
With a 103-99 victory over Boston on Tuesday, the Warriors have themselves just their second winning streak of the season. The first one was pretty impressive, as you may recall; back in November, just after the Stephen Jackson saga resolved itself, Golden State beat Portland (before the Trail Blazers were wracked by injuries) at home, then spanked Dallas on the road.
The Warriors Report: So, this is how teams that aren't so height-challenged live…Filed under: The Morning Report; Tagged as: Andris Biedrins, Anthony Morrow, C.J. Watson, Corey Maggette, Don Nelson, Fat Lever, Monta Ellis, Ronny Turiaf
By Geoff Lepper
Your daily guided tour through the national and local media coverage of the always-entertaining Golden State Warriors.
CSNBayArea.com (Matt Steinmetz):Singing the praises of the Ronny Turiaf-Andris Biedrins tandem: "The Warriors forced Boston into 26 turnovers, which led to 31 points, many of which were committed on the perimeter with Watson and Ellis hounding the Celtics guards.
Both Watson and Ellis said afterward that the return of the Warriors centers has allowed them to be more aggressive and to gamble more on the perimeter."
Also: The Warriors should use the next month to give themselves a thorough self assessment.
P.S. I disagree with Matt's take in one major way: I think Kelenna Azubuike is a big loss — arguably, bigger than Biedrins and Turiaf have been. He's a smallball 4 who can shoot the 3 (in the manner of Matt Barnes or Mickael Pietrus, something this roster sorely lacks, especially with Nelson at the helm) and an above-average defender (at least when compared to the rest of this roster).

Maja Salvador is Not Closing Her Door to Jon Avila
Her co-stars Jon Avila and Jay-R Siaboc who are being romantically linked to her are not the reason behind her glowing aura as well. "Alam naman natin na si Jay-R masaya," said Maja, referring to Jay-R's relationship with long-time girlfriend Irish Fullerton. But will Kapitan Boom mean the end of her hilarious tandem with Jay-R? "Mami-miss kong talakan si Jay-R kasi para kaming aso't pusa. Siyempre po [pati na rin] yung cast dito kasi parang sobrang family na yung turingan namin. Kapag hindi kami nagte-take, kwentuhan, tawanan… Ganun," the young actress enthused.
As for Jon, Maja is fully aware that some people are misunderstanding their closeness on the set. "Sa totoong buhay wala naman po talagang ligawan. Yung lumalabas na issue na kami daw, wala po talaga yun." She further stressed her point, "Mahilig kasi siyang magbasa ng diyaro. So next taping day po namin uupo siya sa tabi ko tapos pag-uusapan namin kung anong lumabas sa diyaryo. Tapos sasabihin niya, 'Uy Maj sorry ha. Nabasa mo ba yung ganito sa diyaryo? Sabi nililigawan daw kita. Sorry ha.' Ganun." Maja added that they would simply laugh over the rumors.
When prodded about Jon's "attraction" to her, Maja comically exclaimed to him, "Wow! Crush ka diyan! Sapukin kita eh!" Seriously though, she's not closing her doors if Jon intends to pursue her for real. "Tignan po natin kung manliligaw nga po. Kasi depende po yun sa pagpupursige ng mga lalake. Depende po yan sa ipapakita." But it seems that Jon has a good chance in light of Maja's revelation that she was a Coverboys fan. "Nanood po ako ng Coverboys. Sinuportahan ko po sila. Okay naman po," she shyly gushed.
But what about Geoff Eigenmann who escorted her down the red carpet during the Star Magic Ball last June 29? "Last year magkasama na rin kami [umattend ng Star Magic ball] kaya lang with a group kami. Pero this year, since may gagawin kami [na project] soon [kami ang magka-partner)." However, Maja refrained from giving details of the project so as not to jinx the plans for their team-up. "Surprise muna. Kailangang itago muna para hindi maudlot."
In the meantime, Maja disclosed that an upcoming TV project is the one thing which is keeping her happy these days. "Siguro masaya lang po talaga ako kasi hindi ako pinapabayaan ng ABS-CBN. May mga projects talaga na magagandang binibigay po sa akin so sinusuklian ko lang. Siyempre kapag maraming projects kailangang magpaganda 'di ba?" Then she hesitantly revealed that she already had a story conference for a soap where she'll be playing the lead.

Philippines - MTV Favorite Artist
Among hundreds of bands and music groups in the Philippines, only four Filipino pop and rock groups are nominated and vying for the MTV Favorite Artist Philippines 2008.
Chicosci - From an after school activity to a full-time passion and profession in 2000, this Filipino pop rock group has gone a long way for being nominated by an international award-giving body such as MTV. The band released their first and sophomore albums Revenge of the Giant Robot in 2000 and Method of Breathing in 2002. Their first single "Sink or Swim" established the band's reputation as one of the forerunners of the new generation of rock.
Method of Breathing further cemented that reputation as the single "Paris" dominated the charts for over a year, ultimately winning NU 107's Song of the Year award in 2002, as well as Best Produced Album.
Sandwich - Being in the music industry for a decade proves that Sandwich is deserving of this nomination. Considered to be a "barkada" band, the group has come a long way from releasing their first album Grip Stand Throw in 1998. Sandwich survived when Marc Abaya left the group to form his own band. In fact, Sandwich won Album of the Year in NU 107 Rock Awards in 1999, another Album of the Year award in 2001, and a slew of other awards honoring their musicality.
Sandwich ushered their tenth anniversary with their latest album, Marks the Spot.
Spongecola - Officially launched in 2002, Spongecola is a youthful four-member rock outfit hailing from the Philippines. They released a self-titled EP in 2003, containing songs that received substantial airplay on local pop and rock radio stations. The group released their debut album, Palabas, in 2004 under Sony BMG Philippines. Their second album Transit (2006) was launched under Universal Records. Within three months of it release, the album struck gold due to the massive radio success of the single "Bitiw."
Spongecola released a repackaged Transit Deluxe this year, featuring five new tracks, and selected music videos. It hit platinum a week after its release.
Urbandub - This indie quartet made an astounding breakthrough in 2000 when their debut album titled Birth became a goldmine even without support from major record companies. This was followed by three more albums: Influence (2003), Embrace (2005), and Under Southern Lights (2007). Urbandub's song, "Soul Searching" won the award for best Song of the Year in the NU107 Rock Awards 2003. Influence also bagged the Album of the Year in the 2004 NU107 Rock Awards.
Their latest album Under Southern Lights pays homage to the queen city of the South, Cebu.
The 2008 MTV Asia Awards will be aired in the Philippines on the following dates: Sunday, August 10 at 7:30pm; Wednesday, August 13 at 6:30pm; Saturday, August 16 at 4:30 pm; Thursday, August 21 at 9:30am; Sunday, August 24 at 11:00am; Wednesday, August 27 at 10:00pm; and Tuesday, September 2 at 1:30 pm.

Marian Rivera is The New Endorser of Facial Care Center
And just recently, the 23-year-old actress also jumped into the ever-growing list of celebrities who are endorsing firms in the beauty and cosmetics business.
Marian signed up as the new face of Facial Care Centre, endorsing its LaserLight hair removal procedure. The beauty-cosmetic firm previously had Cherie Gil, Carmi Martin, Cristina Gonzales, and Kris Aquino as endorsers.
In a previous interview, the Marian said that her decision to sign up and avail of the service was largely because of her problem with unwanted hair.
"Balbon talaga ako," she shared smiling. She used to shave and apply wax to remove the unwanted fuzz but totally gave up on the two methods that were painful and inconvenient. The LaserLight method, according to Marian, is more practical, effective, and totally painless.

Angel Locsin and Claudine Barretto Feud, Far From Over
The Star Magic version of Rikka Dylim is more detailed: "Pagkatapos ng ilang oras na pag-uusap sa pagitan ng dalawa sa harap ng ilang ABS-CBN executives at ng mga Kapamilya at malalapit na kaibigan, nilatag nina Claudine at Angel ang kani-kanilang mga panig at damdamin tungkol sa naganap. At sa pag-uusap na ito, nabigyang-linaw ang mga sumusunod:
Walang sigawang nangyari, walang nanipa ng kahit anumang gamit. Walang nagtaas ng boses, walang sigawan. Naging seryoso ang pag-uusap at nagkaroon ng kaunting tensyon. At dahil dito, napatunayang parehong walang kasalanan ang dalawa. Nagkaroon lang ng miscommunication at napalaki ng mga intriga.
Pagkatapos ng pag-uusap ay natuwa ang mga kasama sa meeting dahil sa pagkakasundo ng dalawa at ang commitment na magsimula muli bilang magkapamilya. "Ipinagdasal ko ito na maayos ang gusot na sa pagitan namin ni Angel. Matagal akong nanahimik pagkatapos nang pagkikita noon sa salon dahil ayokong lumaki ang issue. Aaminin kong naging masakit sa akin ang mga nabasa ko sa mga dyaryo na hinusgahan na ako. Noong isa-isa na naming nilatag ni Angel ang mga isyu at saloobin namin, dito na nabigyang linaw ang lahat. At sa pagkakataong iyon, naging madali sa amin ang magpatawad, anuman ang nangyari," Claudine said.
If Star Magic looks more biased to Claudine, it's because she's their talent and Angel is managed by someone else. Inspite of this, though, we heard that two days after the reconciliation, Claudine got annoyed again when she heard something about Angel and asked that her taping of "Iisa Pa Lamang" be packed up, a clear indication that she's still at odds with Angel despite efforts of ABS management to patch things up between them. Also, we heard that in the actual meeting between them, they didn't agree to reconcile right away as there was an angry exchange of words, making the proceedings drag on until way past midnight. "Matigas ang bawat isa kaya natagalan bago sila napagbati," says an insider. "At mukhang kahit napagbati na sila, hindi pa rin talaga ayos ang lahat."

Luis Manzano Doesn't Mind Angel Locsin Doing Sexy Scenes with Her Screen Partners
As for the controversy between Angel and Claudine Barretto, Luis chooses to steer clear of the issue. "I would prefer to keep quiet. I don't think there is something I can say about it." But he does clarify that Angel is not the type to throw a hissy fit and pick a fight. "In the length of time we have been together, I have [gotten to] know her a lot. 'Di siya 'yong tipong nagtatantrums. She is not capable of doing it." Luis went so far as giving a tongue-in-cheek reply. "Ah, oo nga. May ginilitan na nga siya ng leeg, may sinaksak ng dalawang tao 'yan. Sa awa ng Diyos mga buhay pa naman sila ngayon."
When asked how he felt about Angel doing kissing and love scenes. "Pareho kaming hindi nagpapakialaman. It's Angel's profession. Should I worry about it? Just think of my mom. How many guys has she kissed or had a bed scene with? Mga 30 ba? I just couldn't be so shallow about these things. We have both grown up a lot."

ABS-CBN to Get Dingdong Dantes at All Cost?
Dingdong Dantes is very visible nowadays on various tv commercials, billboards and magazine covers. His fantaserye on GMA opposite Marian Rivera is still the no. 1 tv program nationwide. He is also busy doing a movie with Marian and Iza Calzado. To top it all, he is now one of the hottest properties of GMA 7.
Earlier this year, Richard Gutierrez was rumored of having offered by ABS-CBN a "sky-high" amount just to be a kapamilya. Although Richard had a misunderstanding with GMA at that time, he sealed his loyalty to the kapuso network.
Now, it's Dingdong's turn to have the same issue. Dingdong can be considered as one of the top 3 leading men of the Kapuso network together with Richard Gutierrez and Dennis Trillo. His love team with Marian Rivera became a sensation that dominated the tv ratings game. If Dingdong will leave GMA, "mapipilayan" ang network.
If ever the reports are true, the question "loyalty or money" will be put on spotlight once again. Will another bite the dust?
Ben Chan Denies Favoritism in the Bench Blackout Event
In an interview by GMA News, Ben explained that they don't take side with anybody and that they are a family.
"All of them have done a moment of their own," he added.
The favoritism issue started when Annabelle Rama complaint that his son Richard [Gutierrez] made no impact with the impact because there has been no proper introduction when the latter entered the ramp compared to other stars like Sam Milby, Rafael Rosell and Dingdong Dantes. Furthermore, she did not like the dark make up that they put on Richard that is why the actor turned out to be just one of those models and did not receive louder cheers than Dingdong Dantes and other stars.
Dingdong had a special moment last Saturday wherein he stripped-off his pants exposing a lot of skin to the delight of the audience.
And what is Ben's explanation to "Dingdong's moment"? He's the newest underwear endorser of Bench, no more no less.

Richard Gutierrez Will No Longer Renew Contract with Bench; Annabelle Cries "Unfair" about Richard's Exposure in Bench "Blackout" Event
According to her, Richard was given an unfair exposure in the Blackout event of Bench last Friday, July 25, at the Araneta Coliseum.
Somehow, those who witnessed the event were given the signal that it would be Sam Milby, Rafael Rosell, and Dingdong Dantes who will be approaching the ramp. These three actors got the biggest applause compared to what Richard got from the crowd.
"'Eto sinabi na sa akin ni Richard [Gomez] na nag-meeting na sila bago pa lang ang event, dapat huwag lagyan ng make-up ang mga artista para makilala sila. O kaya, lagyan ng pangalan sa screen na si ano na o si ano ang lalabas para handa ang mga tao.
"Hindi nila ginawa. Hindi lang ito para sa anak ko, para na rin sa lahat ng mga artista. Sana naglagay sila ng mga names na lumalabas para alam ng tao.
"Tanungan nang tanungan, 'Sino 'yan?' sabi ni Dr. [Vicky] Belo, 'she's pretty.' Si Bubbles Paraiso na pala yung tinatanong niya. Si Nitz [Miralles, PEP contributor] nagtanong pa sa kasamahan niya kung si Richard na ba yun. Nasa malapit na sila ng stage ha, paano pa yung nasa bleacher?" said Annabelle in an interview.
It was explained to Annabelle that it never happened to any Bench event that they announced the name of stars who will be doing the ramp.
"Wala na kung wala, pero bakit yung iba, ipinakita muna ang posters bago lumabas?Hindi naman ito kailangan ng anak ko. Sabi niya nga sa akin na huwag na lang akong magsalita, pero unfair talaga ang ginawa sa kanya.
"Paano mo naman makuku-compare si Richard sa iba? Hindi naman siya naghubad, hindi nagpakita ng briefs? Hindi niya ito kailangan. Pati ba naman kasi ito pag-uusapan pa?
"Si Richard, pagod na pagod, galing pa sa Greece pero nagpunta ng rehearsal nang walang reklamo at nag-stay siya talaga doon ng apat na oras. Wala naman siyang bayad dito. Wala namang bayad ang mga artista pero ginawa pa rin nila, sana binigyan na lang sila ng konting importansiya, hindi lang si Richard."
It was later learned that Dingdong was given a separate time for rehearsal because nobody sees him doing the rehearsals.
"Hindi kami humingi ng ganito," Nag-stay si Chard ng apat na oras kahit pagod na siya. Kung may gusto silang i-promote o i-launch, sige walang kaso sa akin. Nagsabi na nga ako na huwag nang isama si Chard sa show, pero pinilit pa rin. Sige, di gawin. Pero sana nga respeto naman na lang sa anak ko.
"Si Richard dapat ang sa Jag. Hinihingi siya noon, dapat siya ang makaka-partner ni Angel [Locsin]. Nagpaalam na ako kay Dougs [Douglas Quijano], pero sabi huwag daw umalis sa Bench kasi dito siya nagsimula. Loyalty na lang daw. Sige stay kami, pero tingnan mo naman ang ginawa sa kanya?"
In this line, someone asked if he'll put again Richard in the next event of Bench which will happen two years from now.
"Ay hindi na, tatanggalin ko na siya sa Bench!" answered a very disappointed Annabelle.
Angel Locsin and Claudine Barretto on the Buzz' "Intriga Uncensored"
According to report, Angel and Claudine settled their misunderstanding face to face last July 23 together with some ABS-CBN executives, Beck Aguila (Angel's manager) and Raymart Santiago (Claudine's husband) .

Claudine Barretto and Angel Locsin Enemies No More?
And on July 23, the two together with some ABS-CBN executive met in an exclusive closed-door meeting to finally settle their rift.
Here is the official statement issued by ABS-CBN regarding the misunderstanding between the two stars:
"Marami na ang nasabi tungkol sa pagkikita nina Ms. Claudine Barretto at Ms. Angel Locsin nung July 4, 2008.
"Dahil dito, nagkaroon na ng meeting noong Miyerkyules, July 23, sa pagitan nina Claudine at Angel kasama ang ilang ABS-CBN executives na sina Ms. Malou Santos, Ms. Cory Vidanes, Mr. Roxy Liquigan, Ms. Mariole Alberto ng Star Magic, ang manager ni Angel na si Ms. Becky Aguila, si Mr. Raymart Santiago [mister ni Claudine], at ilan pang malalapit sa kanila.
"Sa naganap na pagkikita noong July 4, nagkausap sina Claudine at Angel tungkol sa ilang mga isyu na sa kasamaang palad ay napalaki at naging eksaherado base sa kuwento ng ibang kampo.
"Sa naganap na meeting, nilinaw ang mga isyung ito, kinilala at naintindihan ang nararamdaman at emosyon ng bawat isa. Naging malinaw ang lahat at nagkaroon ng kapatwaran.
"Natapos ng maganda at positibo ang meeting at naniniwala ang mga nakasaksi na ito ang magiging simula ng pagkakaibigan ng dalawa. Naniniwala ang ABS-CBN sa maayos na dayalogo at paglilinaw ng mga issues sa mga talent ng kumpanya."

This post was originally published in the Altarum Health Policy Forum
To my beautiful son –
It's hard to know how to start this letter, but I find myself needing to write to you on this World AIDS Day about my having HIV. Right now in 2012, you are only 3 years old and much too young to understand what it means for your mom to be living with HIV . . .
In the world of sex ed, peer education is on the rise. Especially in terms of HIV, peer education has been used in various groups around the world as a public health intervention. While it is receiving more attention in the US, I saw this in action at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, in an area where HIV rates are up to 15%.
Students there volunteer as peer educators, making rounds to the residence halls as well as to community events and a nearby prison. During these events they play a warm-up game and start with a presentation or video. Then they begin asking questions of the participants. At first, the room is quiet. People are shy. However, a few brave souls speak up, and before you know it everyone in the room is on the edge of his or her seat waiting to talk, eager to share opinions about sexual health practices today at their university and in their communities. And when it starts rolling, topics get juicy.
The XIX International AIDS conference was recently held in Washington, D.C. It had been 22 years since the International AIDS conference was held in the United States (mainly due to the unwillingness on the part of the United States to grant visas for HIV-infected individuals–only recently lifted).
Here 25,000 scientists, policy makers, health and education ministry officials, advocates, and activists from around the world were gathered with a renewed determination to stem the tide of this epidemic. Medical advances, improved access to care, prevention initiatives, and revived determination were all good signs, but as a global culture we will need to shift our perspective to stop the spread of HIV.

Good interview.
If you want to skip the Minecraft player/fan centric questions, click on the "Can you still find the fun in your game?" chapter in the video sidebar to get to the more general game design/programming series of questions and answers.
I think it will be interesting to see how Mojang's next creation turns out. There's this vibe floating about that has people wondering whether Notch just got insanely lucky or whether he just has a talent for recognizing and building game systems that are inherently fun for broad audiences. Because let's face it, a lot of people played Infiniminer and Dwarf Fortress, but none of those players created Minecraft.
It's probably been asked before but I've never read the answer, but I would've liked to have known in this interview more about what Markus Persson's mindset was like during the early development of Minecraft. Had he contemplated failure? Was their self doubt? Did he have a backup plan? What did his family think about quiting his job to make games? Why Minecraft and not some other game idea? Has he had any other game ideas that he felt compelled to make that struck him in the same way as Minecraft?

To assemble the boat, the reeds were tied into two large bundles around 6ft 6in (2 meters) in diameter and two smaller bundles (seen here on top of the boat sides). Next, the bigger reed bundles were tied onto a wooden framework, which created the shape of the boat. And finally, the smaller rolls were placed between these two bundles.
Reed watercrafts are among the oldest known boats in the world and, if built correctly, are remarkably stable and watertight. Indeed, Thor Heyerdahl set out to prove that they could be sailed over long voyages by sailing the world's seas in them. However, for this expedition, the point was not distance so much as weight-bearing capability.

Internet Marketing Idea – Sidewiki Easter Eggs
Based on my travels around the web in the last day, Google's Sidewiki is being talked about, but not really used very much.
There is some debate as to whether it will take off and that has a lot to do with how Google promotes the software and whether website managers embrace the technology.
For me, it's the perfect Easter egg hunt. We can have a lot of fun with it if we want. I've gone and left messages for friends and competitors and even visitors to my own sites. For instance on my Facebook business page, I left a special message anybody can see, but only visitors who join can implement and it benefits everyone. But to see the message, you need the secret decoder for the invisible ink. I've left welcome messages for visitors on all my SEO sites.
There are a lot of creative ideas for webmasters and bloggers to create amazing Easter eggs for site visitors using Sidewiki.
- Hidden links only viewable on the wiki.
- Special offers.
- It's endless!
Like any media Easter egg, there is a work around without having to hunt all over the Internet. The Google profiles associated with the software record all comments made and provide links to the pages where comments were left. If enough data is entered into the profile, it becomes searchable. That is the SEO aspect of Google Sidewiki.
I was just fooling around so I didn't go into any secret stealth mode to hide my eggs. However, that's something to be considered for an extensive Sidewiki Easter egg marketing campaign.
Whether this technology is widely adopted certainly remains in question. But it's pretty easy for any web manager to provide a web message on their home page for Sidewiki. An extensive Easter egg campaign isn't necessary until we see more signs the technology is being used. Or it could be such a campaign might just differentiate your site?
Blogger Quick Tips – Sidewiki
Playing around with Sidewiki has been kind of fun. I feel like the invisible man going around to various sites and leaving messages on their page. Few site owners are claiming their sites.
Here's what I've found out so far:
A sidewiki comment will only show up on the single page you comment on, not site wide.
You can personalize your Facebook business page, but not your individual profile.
You can't personalize your Twitter account.
It is so easy to share your comments on Twitter and Facebook. You can also publish them to a blog or email them.
Because of this capability, Sidewiki will have SEO implications, particularly with the profile comment history.
Go ahead and download Sidewiki so you too can see the invisible graffiti tags of the application.
There are ways to block Sidewiki, but nobody knows how lasting those tactics will be.
Sidewiki is Internet Graffiti
There's a new piece of Internet real estate website owners should be ready to grab – Sidewiki. Besides multiple domains, Facebook, Twitter and blog addresses, site owners should now download Sidewiki.
What is Sidewiki? It's a Google toolbar application that allows visitors to comment on any web page whether an existing commenting system exists or not. The site owner has no control of the content, Google does.
Google uses an algorithm to decide which comments go at the top. And Google, not the site owner, decides which content must be taken down because it's inappropriate.
Consider it a digital spray can and your website is the canvas for Internet artists and taggers. As a site owner you can "claim" your site to receive the top slot on your site. Gee thanks Google…letting us claim what's already ours!
Whether the paint coming out of the Sidewiki spray can is beautiful art in the form of constructive comments and accolades or street graffiti in the form of spam or trolls is dependent on how well the comment algorithm works. Theoretically spammy and negative comments will be pushed to the bottom.
Google has developed an algorithm that it says can filter out obvious spam, naughty words, and the classic all-caps technique employed by some of the Internet's more unhinged pundits, said Caesar Sengupta, group product manager at Google. As comments build over time, a recursive algorithm can analyze the quality of past comments using reader votes on the comment's usefulness.
The other question is how many people will use it. I just downloaded it yesterday and I don't see a lot of widespread use even on popular sites. However, I think adoption of Sidewiki will happen quite quickly. Early adopters are going to benefit significantly from it.
Opportunities for Sidewiki -
Sidewiki makes it even easier to share links, posts and even quotes from a page to Facebook and Twitter.
You can share your comments with your Facebook or Twitter accounts, and can post a link to a blog item discussing that Web page with a snippet of the text, Sengupta said.
Your Google profile is displayed on the page and your previous comments are archived for all to see. Unless you're using a sock puppet to comment, thinking before you type and reputation management are even more important.
Site owners can gain some traffic, just by commenting constructively on popular sites. Of course right now, not many people are using Sidewiki, so those benefits may not be immediate.
Threats from Sidewiki -
Two threats seem to have emerged and I can't really tell you which one is more dangerous; spamming and slamming.
Since Sidewiki allows links and no control from the site owner, it will be easy for spammers to make comments on highly trafficked sites. No determination on SEO has been established about Sidewiki yet, but it still seems like it could be an effective way to drive traffic. I'll let you know!
Slamming a company, person or brand seems to be the other threat. Now a person could go to McDonald's website and post a link to Burger King plus post a comment explaining their preference for a flame-broiled burger. This could be a brand management or reputation management nightmare!
While these are my two biggest concerns, some big names in the web community are voicing concerns over Google hijacking their site traffic by painting on this alternative universe of conversation. Utah top blogger nominee Phil Windley reports that Robert Scoble is upset about Sidewiki -
The discussion was on SideWiki. I'm afraid Robert was a little outnumbered, but it was a lively discussion and a lot of fun. Robert kept saying that it was unfair for Google to ride on top of his distribution.
Jeff Jarvis has similar concerns on his site. Scoble needn't be worried. Few people have used Sidewiki on his site so far.
What should a website manager or blog author do about Google Sidewiki?
1. Download the application. You won't be able to see or take part in the conversation if you don't have it. Get it here. Now.
2. Claim your site. Take that top comment and make a statement about the application.
3. Be prepared. If this technology is adopted into the mainstream, it will be the next Twitter. Make comments on sites you like. Be aware everything you say will be recorded and potentially held against you, so be nice. If it turns into a nothing burger, then at least you're in a decent position to manage your site and web reputation.

…for when you're sad, insecure, lost, lonely, or otherwise in need of some serious self-salvation:
1. A playlist of music that pumps you up and stirs you to sing and dance.
2. A list of compliments you've received in the past few years, especially the most meaningful and unique ones. Read it as a reminder. Memorize your favorites and repeat them like a meditative mantra.
3. A creative activity to sweep your mind away from the problem. Get out your sketchbook. Dust off your ukulele. Clear some space for dancing. And hop to it.
4. Someone who loves you, even if it's just your cat or your teddy bear. You need someone who will listen to you spill the beans and then cuddle you mercilessly.
5. The ability to positively re-direct your thoughts, which we all have. Make a gratitude list. Fantasize about something awesome. Look back on a fond memory. Glance around you and mentally point out the things that are great about your current environment, your body, your situation.
6. Something to look forward to. Call up a friend and make a plan. Open your laptop and look up some concerts, plays, or improv shows nearby. You can even set yourself a goal with a deadline.

Shanti-HostelSkopje, Macedonia
I really enjoyed my stay at Shanti hostel. Everything was great, my only complaint is that the large dorm is a little crowded, and when I was there they were missing keys so I didn't get a key for the main door or a locker. Also, there's only two bathrooms, which isn't really enough for the number of people staying there, especially when one of them was out of order and we were only left with one. Even though this review sounds really negative, I would totally stay here again!

One of the best hostels I've stayed at! The staff was friendly and helpful, the location couldn't have been better, the rooms were clean and very comfortable, and, of course, FREE ICE CREAM!
