Tackling Wicked Government Problems
A Practical Guide for Developing Enterprise Leaders
How can government leaders tackle the complex interagency and intergovernmental issues they face increasingly today? Tackling Wicked Government Problems: A Practical Guide for Developing Enterprise Leaders draws on the experience of some of the federal government's most successful executives and leadership development experts who offer proven strategies for successfully taking on the great challenges that confront our nation. Here, they point the way forward for the next generation of senior public officials. Jackson Nickerson, Ronald Sanders, and their colleagues offer several approaches for translating social network theory into practical approaches for building and employing collaborative networks. They present real solutions for developing enterprise leaders and explore how such leaders can use these networks to respond to, and eventually solve, thorny problems that span multiple agencies and disciplines.

Argos Stores Under Threat As Profits Fall
Video: Argos Stores Under Threat As Profits FallEnlarge
The owner of Argos has warned of possible store closures after the catalogue retailer saw a huge slide in full-year profits.
The 748-strong chain suffered a 9% drop in like-for-like sales and a near 60% plunge in operating profits to £94.2m in the year to February 25.
Its owner, Home Retail Group, said the leases on around 230 Argos stores will come up for renewal in the next five years, and some could be moved or shut down.
It expects to close about 10 outlets during the current financial year.
A company statement said: "With this flexibility, Argos will focus on optimising its store network by relocating or closing some older stores and opening some new stores if attractive sites become available."
Home Retail, which also owns DIY chain Homebase saw pre-tax plummet more than 60% to £90.2m over the last year. Total sales fell by 6%.
Homebase, which has 341 stores, saw its like-for-like sales drop 2%, while operating profits plunged 50% to £22.8m in the same period.
Big ticket sales such as new kitchens and bathrooms were lower at Homebase, the group said, as consumers reined in spending.
With its shares down more than 50% over the year, the group also dealt a blow to shareholders by saying it would scrap its final dividend.
"Future dividends will be set at a level which is sustainable and which reflects the trading prospects and financial position of the Group," added Oliver Stocken, chairman of Home Retail Group.
Earlier in the week Sky News City editor Mark Kleinman exclusively revealed that the new American boss of the Argos John Walden has launched a review of the business in an attempt to turn around its fortunes.
The group said multi-channel sales now make up 48% of total sales, with 39% from online, while total sales from mobile shopping were around 6%.
George MacDonald, deputy editor of Retail Week, told Sky News that Argos had "big problems".
"They need to take some action to take control of their own destiny a bit more," he told Jeff Randall Live.
But Mr MacDonald said the fact that 'multi-channel retail' was growing much faster than online only retail (with the exception of Amazon) would work in Argos's favour.
"The stores are not great places to go for the experience, they are not comfortable and a bit dingy often, but [Argos] has a great distribution centre," he added.
Andrea Felsted, senior retail correspondent at the Financial Times agreed that Argos was "under pressure" as shoppers experience squeezed budgets and move online.
She told Sky News: "Clearly Argos simply has too many stores.
"You would not build a chain now in Argos's line of business with 750 stores and clearly something needs to be done with their store base."
The tough retail trading environment was also demonstrated by clothing chain Next, which has reported a 3.9% fall in total sales in the 13 weeks to April 28.
With directory sales up and shop sales down - in line with market expectations - analysts said the trading update demonstrated the Britain's second biggest fashion retailer's "resilience".
There was better news for pub chain, JD Wetherspoon, which saw like for like sales rise by 2% in its third quarter.

Review: Virtual Villagers 3: The Secret City
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Product Reviews, Video Games, Videos
LDW (Last Day of Work) has finally released the latest in their Virtual Villagers series. This time around, VV3: The Secret City goes back to the island of Isola, or rather another side of it with a combination of simulation, adventure, and virtual inhabitants . While this game plays pretty much like its predecessors, such as being able to adjust level of difficulty and speed, there are plenty of new features. Our highlights of VV3 and additional screenshots after the jump.
To begin with, this real time virtual life game features a Tribal Chief. Although this person doesn't exactly do much beyond contemplating and lecturing, there are a few trick up her/his sleeve, so try tooling the leader around to see what is available.
Weather has been added and directly affects the play. You will need to use the different aspects of the climate to keep your poor inhabitants from starving. While we were playing early on, we found that we just couldn't keep them from worrying about food most of the time, so we suggest you build your tribe slowly.
Again, there are collections, tech to add knowledge to your group, and more difficult puzzles to figure out. We love that they incorporated graphics similar to two of their other games, Fish and Plant Tycoon.
Look for features of navigating around the larger map with your keypad, the addition of awards to mark milestones, and the ability to pause without leaving the main screen.
VV3 is available for PC, Mac, Palm OS, and Windows Mobile, if you want to travel with your group. While we already know that this will be a fave of fans of the first two, we suspect anyone will find it as addictive as LDW's other video games. We certainly did.
(Thanks, Carla)

I would just get age of empires 3. This dosent look very fun.
My sister loves this game, though I hate it. I like the game setup though.
@ClintWestwood it's doesn't look like it has battles as Age of Empires, It has the same concept but I guess there is no battles.
It's good for kids anyway.
From their website:
LDW Software does not sell products for purchase by children. We sell children's products for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use LDW Software only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
I'm sure there is a valid reason for LDW to have this requirement. I just found it funny.
I'm saving my hard earned coin for Spore to come out later this year. The Creature Creator for Spore should be out in about a week to ten days.
Downloading VV3 now to kick it's tires and see if it is any fun. 45.2 Megs? Be awhile for me.
I tried it once. It took me forever, even with the tutorials, to get it going. I could not be able to do anything without losing everyone. And I totally didn't understand why it's popular. RTS like these are usually fun for me, but this one takes the cake. I'd rather wait for StarCraft II.
I din't play this game but i played the fish tycoon a year back, i like fish tycoon, if you are saying it is similar to fish tycoon game, i will definitely pay it.

Dir. Carl Reiner (1970). The Producers rival as the most outrageous example of Hollywoods short lived Jew wave features George Segal as a nice young Manhattan lawyer burdened with a nightmarish senile mother (Ruth Gordon). Wheres Poppa? is less a movie than a series of slapstick riffs in which each dreamlike scene ends in psychosexual hyperbole.

From the Department of Awesome Natural Wonders come these mysterious patterns on the ocean floor off the southern coast of Japan. Japanese scuba diver and photographer Yoji Ookata, who has spent the last 50 years exploring and documenting his underwater discoveries off the coast of Japan, spotted these beautiful and puzzling patterns in the sand, nearly six feet in diameter and 80 feet below sea level, during a dive near Amami Oshima at the southern tip of the country.
So what happened next? Are these rippling geometric patterns the equivalent of crop circles on the seafloor? Not quite, but the answer is still a good one. Colossal explains:
"He soon returned with colleagues and a television crew from the nature program NHK to document the origins what he dubbed the "mystery circle."
Using underwater cameras the team discovered the artist is a small puffer fish only a few inches in length that swims tirelessly through the day and night to create these vast organic sculptures using the gesture of a single fin. Through careful observation the team found the circles serve a variety of crucial ecological functions, the most important of which is to attract mates. Apparently the female fish are attracted to the hills and valleys within the sand and traverse them carefully to discover the male fish where the pair eventually lay eggs at the circle's center, the grooves later acting as a natural buffer to ocean currents that protect the delicate offspring. Scientists also learned that the more ridges contained within the sculpture resulted in a much greater likelihood of the fish pairing. To learn more about the circles check out the full scoop over on Spoon and Tamago, and you can see two high resolution desktop photos courtesy of NHK here."
Busy little pufferfish boys wooing potential mates by sculpting the sand with their bodies. As far as we're concerned, that's pretty awesome!

Jellyfish Lake: Twelve thousand years ago these jellyfish became trapped in a natural basin on the Eli Malk island when the ocean receded. With no predators amongst them for thousands of years, they evolved into a new species that lost most of their stinging ability as they no longer had to protect themselves.

"canceled my order without noted . no paypal accepted make me think they try to get your credit card info. for good. "
"Terrible, I got a Zwilling Knife Set to buy, when I put them into the shopping cart, I got 2, laterly turned into 3 email, each with a charge of $69.44, but I have never tried to place the order! They keep charging every two minutes, so I called AE to close my accout and dispute the purchase, if you want to make purchase on BonTon, think twice!"
"As others have mentioned, their online website it terrible. They don't have real-time updates to their stock. I am guessing it is only verified at checkout because I am unable to process any of my orders. As the order is being processed it gives an error saying to call into their CS reps. When I call in they mention the item is in low inventory but the item can still be ordered. When I mentioned I have Shoprunner they said they are unable to process that outside of the website. So they lost an order and made me very disappointed.
Their management must be unaware of how terrible their online ordering is as clearly they don't even check this site. I don't think I will order again unless I see an improvement to their site."
"I wish I can write down the order # but I can't. since their stupid order system does not process any of my credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover). I also gave it multiple try using any of these credit card. It simply did not work. Always got "We are unable to process your credit card payment at this time. Please use a different payment method to complete your order or try again at a later time. If the problem continues, call Bon-Ton Customer Care at 1-800-945-4438 for assistance."
It does not matter how wonderful the product and how attractive the price is. You just can not make any order"
"I love this place. 3 separate orders and all of were a pleasant experience."
"Placed my first order with this website ever. Not a good start. Within 30 minutes of placing my order I received an email that my item was canceled. No reason given. Just canceled. Although, they are still selling this item on their website.
I had a one use coupon for %off as well as free shipping. Guess they do not want to sell their items at discount. Well that is fine. I will not darken your website again with my useless orders."
"Not able to place any orders, each time I get an error that I need to call their customer support"
"December 2013 Order.
Short Version: Customer service is awful.
Long Version:
I placed an order for comforter AND shams. One week later, I receive the comforter with NO shams. So I called them, and they told me to forward the confirmation email where it stated "and shams", because it was supposed to say "or shams" apparently.
7 days later, I receive no reply. So I call a second time, and they tell me that I should receive the shams in 7 days.
On 12/16 I call a third time since I haven't received them, and they said I should wait a little longer and I should receive an email.
On 12/30 I don't receive any emails or package, so I call them back. They say tracking number is not provided, they'd reship it and I should call back in 10 business days.
On 1/31 I call and they said I should receive the shams by the 4th.
On 2/20 I decide call back one more time before the 90 days pass from the date of purchase so I can file a dispute with the credit card company. I talk to Ann and ask for a refund because I never received the shams. She says she can't do any credits/refunds and she'd try to place my shams order again and I should receive a confirmation email within 5 business days.
I didn't want to take any chances so I filed a dispute with my credit card company after the 5 business days passed with no confirmation email.
3/4, they shipped my shams finally but definitely too late: 3 months late!
Wait time on the phone calls is low though. Maximum wait time is 12 minutes.
Customer service can't do much and if they placed any order confirmations for replacements, it takes weeks to receive those in the email!
Customer service number: 800-945-4438"
"First time buyer: Ordered BOGO (buy one get one) Starbucks coffee k-cups and only got one box - called first time and got a terrible customer service rep but after venting a while I called them back and got a good person who helped me out - seems you have to put 2 boxes in the cart to get the one free. She ordered me the other box and now I know how to order to get the BOGO! I suggest Bon Ton fixes their website to make it easier for 1st time users!"
"I seriously wonder what the store was doing. I found this deal on their website for a mixer at deep discount price of $100. I clicked on check out and the price jumped up to $700. I was like I am not paying for it when it said that it is $100. I sent an email to customer service. Couple hours after that, I checked back and the item was back to $700. After 2 days, I received an email from Bonton saying that I got the wrong item, the one on sale was 5 quart and I was trying to buy the 6 quart. How stupid they think I am. I went on their website, click on the order button of the item page to check out and they said I did it wrong? Secondly, I took several pictures of the page when the item was on a discount and I am sure about what I say. I was carefully enough to take a picture of the item description as well and it said it is 6 quart. I did not even look at another item then how could I get it wrong. Yes, try to blame it on the customer Bonton. I called customer service and they played dumb with me. If they said that the item is out of stock then I would have believed it but it is not, it is still selling on the website. Plus, they tried to blame it on me for it, no way in hell. "
"I ordered a pair of shoes and 3 pairs of socks from BonTon on 11/19/2013. The shoes shipped the next day and arrived the end of the week to my surprise. It was obvious that this was drop shipped directly from the manufacturer. The shoes I received were the wrong size from what I ordered and I immediately called Bonton customer service to have this returned and refunded. The rep issued me a shipping label and I received it the next day. On 11/21 I got an email notification claiming that my socks were shipped via UPS Ground. The tracking number clearly didn't look like a UPS number but a USPS number. It was invalid so I decided to give a little bit to retry later.
My returned shoes were delivered back to Bonton on 11/27 and Bonton never provided any notification that they received them. It is now 12/1 and my socks have yet to arrive (the tracking number doesn't work) and my refund has not been credited back onto my credit card. I called customer service and they claim it'll take 3-5 days for them to credit back a refund and they can't do anything about the socks until after 10 business days since it was shipped. The tracking number still doesn't work, so I don't understand what the delay is. They obviously don't know where their own inventory is and their shipping department is basically non-existent since they do drop ship only it seems. Even if I waited 10 days, they'd need several more business days to investigate the issue before they can credit me back $8 for these socks. The turnaround time they need to process these kind of things is unacceptable. Even eBay's policies are faster than this!
I've pretty much given up on the socks and already issued a dispute with my credit card company. I'm still waiting for the refund on the shoes, but judging on the other reviews here I may have to file another dispute for that as well."
"I was making a purchase in Trexlertown,PA store back in September and It was absolutely terrible.
The price I've been charged was much higher then it should be based on was on the ticket.It was saying 75% off original price after take additional 50%.Original price was $85 but I was charged more then that.
When I come back to store and talked to manager,she agreed that I was overcharged and started to talk about some "price adjustment " and there was nothing she could do.It looked like she wanted to get rid of us asap.
I think it's a fraud, when store knowingly confusing customer hoping they will not notice. And most of them don't. It's a very "clever" way to make money.
It's not all. Contacting customer service online-no help.They just don't care about customer at all.Responded to my email in a week with "generic template answer" saying sorry,we cannot help;"
"Order was placed on 10/24/13
I ordered a Kitchen Aid mixer which cost a good amount. I received the item scuffed and scratched. I called customer service and told them the issue. They were nonchalant about it and did not seem apologetic that a high priced item like that arrived damaged due to poor quality control. They said they would issue a free UPS shipping label. It would take 24- 48 hours. I called several times, and they said said it was issued but i did not receive anything. They said they would generate a second one and after 48 hours, I finally received that.
They would not request a UPS pick up for this item that weighed over 20 lbs. I do not drive. I don't know how they expected me to drop this off at a UPS location. The Representative gave me false information and told me I should call UPS myself and that the label should cover any fees they try to add on when i request a pick up. It really doesn't work that way.
I finally was able to ship the return back. It arrived at their warehouse. UPS.com sends me a notification but Bonton does not. They still not have notified they received my return. I called customer service twice. The first person told me I should expect my replacement to be shipped out by end of business day yesterday. I called in again this morning and the second person told me it takes 3-5 business days for my return to be processed and credited??? (i want a replacement, not credit!!). So I have to wait until tomorrow to see if they process my return, and then another 7-10 business days for my replacement to be sent me that is after the x amount of time it takes for my replacement to get processed.
I have a rebate deadline of Dec 2nd. At this rate, i don't know if i will even make the deadline.
I ordered it on Oct 24th, today is Nov 7th. I have never dealt with a company that took this long to sent out return labels, then process, and send out a replacement.
I told them they should expedite the shipping for my replacement but they said they could not do that. They have the option to charge people for special handling and to charge people extra for expedite shipping but they could not upgrade that for me after damage on their part and wasting a huge amount of my time following up on this."
"I placed a large order, which Bonton split into several shipments. Three packages were left on my stoop by UPS, and were stolen. Granted, that was not Bonton's fault. However, the followup was a nightmare of misinformation, and promises that the items would be replaced. Had I known that was not the case (3 of 9 items were replaced, the remainder went out of stock and were refunded), I would have reordered at least one of the items, which was to be a Christmas gift. The phone reps were friendly and helpful, except for the misinformation part. The email responses often did not really address the question at hand."
"I have ordered from Bon Ton several times in the past without issues, but recently I tried to place 2 separate orders and received an error message each time to call customer service. On the first order, which was for 6 kitchen items, I found out that 50% of that order was out of stock. On the second order, which was clothing and shoes, 5 out of 6 items I was trying to order were out of stock. Bon Ton has some serious inventory issues on their website. It appears they don't even update their website, as the items that I tried to order 2 days ago are still showing up as being available when they really aren't. It's a crap shoot to place an order, and get lucky enough to only add items to your shopping cart that are in stock. You have no way of knowing what is in or out of stock until you hit the place order button and get that stupid error message to call customer service. This is way too hard, and as much as I have liked Bon Ton in the past, I am going to have to take my business elsewhere."

What is Textbroker?
Textbroker is an upfront pay writing site. Anyone can list writing work they want done, and if you apply as a writer and are accepted, you are given the opportunity to complete the work for various people. Most of the writing is SEO centered, meaning that you'll be required to use certain keywords in your articles a certain number of times. The client will specify this in his instructions to you.
How much does Textbroker pay?
The pay you receive with Textbroker depends on what writing level you start out at. They rank their writers at level 2, 3, 4, and 5. Level 2 writers get slightly less than one cent per word, level 3 writers get one cent per word, level 4 writers get around two cents a word (maybe slightly less), and level 5 writers get around five center per word. If you are fast, you can make well over $10 an hour, even at level 2.
Update 1-15-2011: If you are a writer at level 4 or 5, you can take a test to start proofreading for Textbroker. Proofreading pays .03 per word. The test is based on AP Style guidelines. If you fail the test, you can take it again in three months.
How and when does Textbroker pay?
Textbroker pays their writers via Paypal, and payment is made weekly! Weekly pay is a new development as of 9-2-2011. Before it was every two weeks. You have to request pay-off every Thursday to get your payments on Friday. They will not send it automatically, and you must have accrued at least $10 to have the option of requesting pay-off.
How does applying to Textbroker work?
To apply to Textbroker, you will have to submit a short 200+ word writing sample on a topic. They will give you a few different ones to choose from. Textbroker is pretty lenient, and they seem to accept most people. I don't know anyone personally who has applied and was rejected, though I'm sure it has happened. Once they've graded your sample, they will allow you to begin writing and put you at either level 2, 3, or 4. Most writers start off at level 3. If you start off at level 2 or 3, don't be discouraged. With consistently good quality, you can get moved up to level 4. From what I understand, level 5 is not easily attainable, but it can be done. You have to be dedicated and the vast majority of your work must be error-free.
Note that Textbroker will ask you for a copy of a valid US ID so they can confirm you are actually a citizen. However, you are free to black out your social security/driver's license number if that makes you feel more secure. This is not a requirement Textbroker used to have, but I imagine they have been flooded with applicants coming from people who are not US citizens.
How does writing for Textbroker work?
When you're hired, you are allowed to choose writing jobs from their order board, which is divided up into categories. The order board additionally shows how many assignments are avaiilable at different writing levels. If you are hired at level 2, you may only choose level 2 writing assignments. If you are level 3, you can choose either level 2 or 3 writing assignments. Level 4 can pick from 2, 3, and 4, and so on. You get my drift. Once you select an assignment, you can begin writing it. You cannot select another assignment until you have completed the one you are currently working on. Upon submission, the client has three days to either approve your submission or request a rewrite. Every writer gets one rewrite opportunity before a client can reject an article. It's up to you if you want to do the rewrite or not. It's OK to just let them expire if you don't want to attempt it. If you submit your article and the client doesn't approve it or ask for rewrite within three days, Textbroker will auto-accept it. If a client is pleased with your work, he can rate your writing. He might also send you a direct order, which is a special job he only wants you to do. You set your own rate per word for direct orders. The editors at Textbroker periodically look over your writing for quality. Just as you can be bumped up a level, you can also be bumped down. So if your writing is at level 4 and you suddenly start submitting sub-par content, they reserve the right to put you back down to level 3.
What about taxes?
You work for Textbroker as an independent contractor, so you are responsible for your own taxes.
Does Textbroker hire international writers?
Textbroker now hires writers from the U.K. Canada, Britain, Australia and other English speaking countries through their UK website.
My Personal Experience With Textbroker
Yes. I began writing for them in late 2009, and I still occasionally submit content for them.
How hard is it to become a level 5 writer on Textbroker?
You need to have at least ten articles written rated "4" before you will be considered for promotion to level 5. It's also a prerequisite to have passed the Textbroker proofreading test. These guidelines are new as of April 2011.
Is Textbroker worth it?
My personal opinion is yes, especially if you are new to the world of freelance writing. There is, in my opinion, no better place to get a feel for freelance writing than here. The editors at Textbroker are very friendly and give you lots of constructive criticism, which helps you become a better writer over time. When I first began freelance writing, my writing skills were terribly rusty, and I can credit Textbroker for helping me sharpen them up.
Want to apply?

If you're in the UK, you can go here to sign up.

When students register, the university reserves specific class spaces for those students and commits resources to provide the instruction that has been selected. The students, then, assume the responsibility for paying those course fees or for notifying the university if they decide not to attend. The availability of courses is subject to change. A class may be cancelled due to low enrollment or departmental staffing considerations. The department canceling a class will notify registered students and help them make alternate arrangements, if necessary. Registered students also will be notified if the meeting time and/or location of a course has changed since the student registered.
Registration will not automatically be cancelled for nonpayment of fees. Students must either pay their fees or drop all of their classes by the end of the first week of classes if they do not intend to return to IUPUI for the semester. Canceling registration by the first week of classes releases class spaces in time to be available to other students. Students who decide to cancel their registration should log on to Onestart (onestart.iu.edu) Self Service, go to Student Center, click on Drop/Add Classes and proceed to drop all classes.

Santa Clara, Calif. • Long after it was over, in the halls of an small, elite college, he sat on an orange Gatorade cooler, the heel of his palm pressed into his jaw. A light dress shirt hung untucked over whitewashed jeans, which extended to dusty, once-white sneakers.
A product of a different elite university, forever immaculate in dress, stoic in strength and precise in speech, on Saturday Jason Kreis more closely resembled a prep schooler who had just failed a major exam.
Storylines San Jose 5, RSL 0Real Salt Lake was swept in a three-game series by a Western Conference opponent for the second time in club history.
» RSL suffered its most lopsided defeat since it lost 6-0 to New York in 2006.
» League scoring leader Chris Wondolowski netted a hat trick for the Earthquakes.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Kreis was as uncharacteristic in defeat as his team was throughout.
In a 5-0 loss to San Jose, RSL was never quite right: lazy passes, unforced errors, teammates berating teammates. Oh, and Chris Wondolowski netted a hat trick, although his first goal would have been enough.
It was a third loss to the Earthquakes, the second-most lopsided in club history. Yet, laughably, entering Saturday it provided an avenue to first place for RSL.
"They just don't get any bigger than this one was, so I don't understand how it's even possible that you wouldn't be completely up for a night like this and ready to roll," Kreis said, "right from minute one."
The game completely escaped RSL's grasp in the 58th minute, because what would a game at Buck Shaw Stadium be without a red card?
With RSL trailing 1-0, Kyle Beckerman retaliated for a foul on Javier Morales. It led to a near-brawl, which in turn precipitated a red-card ejection for Beckerman.
"The red card is the reason why we lost that game," Beckerman said. "If it's 11-v-11, it's going to be a much more even game."
In the stadium where RSL lost 3-1 on April 21 after losing two players to red cards, Saturday's loss had a familiar vibe.
Alan Gordon scored in the 64th minute, while Wondolowski added his final two in the 73rd and 80th minute, with a goal by Simon Dawkins in between them.
Wondolowski's second goal left RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando screaming at Kenny Mansally, who started in place of injured Tony Beltran and let the scoring king slip free.
RSL was at a disadvantage from the beginning. Starters Beltran, center back Nat Borchers and midfielder Ned Grabavoy all stayed home with injuries.
It wasn't long after the start that RSL's problems began. Jamison Olave awkwardly lost the ball on the endline for a corner kick.
"I think that there were a few guys that for whatever reason sleepwalked into that game," Kreis said. "[Olave] was one of them."
RSL owned first place in the Western Conference before losing 2-1 to San Jose on June 23 at Rio Tinto Stadium. Last week, Kreis called Saturday's game a chance for a statement.
"A statement was made to us," Kreis said, "that San Jose's a much better team than us right now."

NBA Labor Update: Talks Unsuccessful, Start of Regular Season in Jeopardy
The NBA and players union had a crucial labor meeting today in New York, with the start of the regular season in jeopardy. The sides understood the importance of Tuesday's talks, but economic issues prevented a new CBA. The union would not make its BRI split under 50%, with its lowest offer stopping at 53%. According to the union, the last formal proposal by the owners offered the players only 47% of the BR ...Read more ›


text: Dubbed "an epiphany" by The New York Times, The Yehudim is a mixed ensemble of voices, vintage keyboards, electric guitars and basses, and percussion, conceived of and directed by composer and New Amsterdam co-director Judd Greenstein. Taking the composer-led supergroups of the 1970s as inspiration — from Philip Glass, Steve Reich and Meredith Monk to Fela Kuti, Isaac Hayes and Herbie Hancock — The Yehudim explores characters from the Hebrew Bible, using the strange stories of their lives and the ancient writings around their characters to weave contemporary narratives that are Passions for our time. The band is fronted by singer/keyboardist Olga Bell, along with Greenstein himself playing lead keyboards. They are joined by a talented group performers drawn from standout ensembles such as Antibalas , Roomful of Teeth, and NOW Ensemble.

Imagine a tombstoneless cemetery alive with interactive video presentations. Lakov Kalinin / Shutterstock
Five years ago, Garry and Deborah Blesie, both in their 60s, struck upon an idea that was literally buried in the ground, reminding us at Portfolio.com that innovation and entrepreneurship aren't reserved just for the young. Their idea? Use underground utility-tracking technology to transmit information about the dead to generations to come.
The tracking technology has been around for over 50 years as a means to mark the location of splices in underground water, electricity, sewer, and gas mains. The devices are known as RFID tags and are basically barcodes on steroids, capable of being detected from as far as 20 feet away using a specialized handheld display.
Mr. Blesie, now retired from GTE, had been using the technology for years, when his wife came home from a job of her own, using ground-penetrating radar to help the city determine whether a buried object was a human body or something else entirely.
"She told the city she didn't know what it was, but that they should have used a system like the one I used at GTE," Mr. Blesie said.
And so, with their imaginations kindled, the couple set to working out the details of a new company, Memorial Markers, LLC, dedicated to transmitting such information about the dead as their name, date of interment, and specific location in the cemetery—typically 2,000 bytes of data or less.
Looking for more interesting ideas?
Memorial Marker's RFID tags come in either disks or balls for $20 and $25, respectively, and Blesie said he has sold thousands of them in the U.S. and Canada—including to several cemeteries owned by what he calls the largest company in the United States—and is currently in negotiations with his first potential client overseas, based in the United Kingdom.
Michael earned his BA from Mercer University, along the way excavating a Roman bathhouse with the American School of Archaeology. Plus, he provided security at Oxford University, where he also studied literature and philosophy. He earned his MS from Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism while training for and running in the New York marathon.

Frank Portman
Teen Fiction PORTMAN
Summary: From Frank Portman, author of the cult classic King Dork that John Green says "will rock your world", comes a novel about Andromeda Klein, who has a few problems of her own. Her hair is kind of horrible. Her partner-in-occultism, Daisy, is dead. Her secret, estranged, much older and forbidden boyfriend-in-theory, has gone AWOL. And her mother has learned how to text. In short, things couldn't get much worse. Until they do. Daisy seems to be attempting to make contact from beyond, books are starting to disappear from the library, and then, strangely and suddenly, Andromeda's tarot readings are beginning to predict events with bizarrely literal accuracy. Omens are everywhere. Dreams; swords; fires; hidden cards; lost, broken, and dead cell phones . . . and what is Daisy trying to tell her? In the ensuing struggle of neutral versus evil, it's Andromeda Klein against the world, modern society, demonic forces, and the "friends" of the library.

Happy Thursday! Isn't it nice to know that those two days of cherished long sleep are almost there? To help with your (and yes, I am projecting my feelings onto others) sleep deprived hard working motivation, I want to show you three super pretty polishes today, all of them from Elevation Polish. Lulu runs her nature – and especially mountain – inspired business over at Elevation Polish.
Black Ice (from the Naughty by Nature Collection) is a charcoal matte polish with the intensest of the intense silver and multicolored shimmer. It applies easily with one coat, and if you apply it carefully, you don't need a second one. Below swatches are one coat. The drying time is amazing, even someone super impatient like me didn't get annoyed!
Clearly I had to try and see what Black Ice looks like with topcoat. Amazing how the shimmer pops, don't you think?
Limestone (from the Stone's Throw Collection) is a marshmallow white with golden flakes in it. I absolutely adore the look of this polish! Also, it is extremely easy to apply and I wore this for three days, basically without tip wear. My favorite of the Elevation Polishes I own.
Mount Augustus (from the Australia Sunrise & Sunset Collection) is a creamy coral polish with a purple shimmer and tiny golden glitter specks in it. I don't really like coral, mainly because I usually can't pull it off, but this one is an exception. It actually looks pretty nice on me and I love the golden flakes in the coral base. 2 coats.
Do you have any Elevation polishes? If yo, which ones should I add to my collection? I have to admit I have 4 more on the way to me…
Thanks to Lulu from Elevation polish, who sent me these pretties for review!

Lady Gaga seems to be actively encouraging the buying of counterfeit goods. Indeed, all her little monsters - and those less keen on her music - may have her tacit permission to buy her pirated CDs.28 May 2012 - 12:00am
The mainland's reputation as the home of fake goods may be coming to an end as increasingly savvy consumers demand the real thing.

The Customs and Excise Department says this is a new method that is used to evade detection by their new monitoring system.16 Jul 2011 - 12:00am
Customs officers will target unscrupulous traders who use rigged scales to cheat waste recyclers after the number of complaints rose by 70 per cent last year.
Commissioner of Customs and Excise Richard Yuen Ming-fai said yesterday that the fraud tactics had 'crossed the line' as it took advantages of paper scavengers, who were mostly elderly people.5 Feb 2010 - 12:00am

Academy Award® nominated documentary filmmaker, Marshall Curry, takes us into the lives of Annabeth (11 years old), Josh (12), and Brandon (13) as they compete for the championship in the World Karting Association's National Series — widely considered the Little League for professional racing.
Clocking speeds of up to 70 mph, these young drivers race their way through the year-long National Series that spawned many of NASCAR's top drivers.
And at the same time, they navigate the treacherous road between childhood and young adulthood.
In intimate moments of young love and family struggle, this exciting and often humorous story has been fondly described as "part Catcher in the Rye, part Talledega Nights."

text: I think this broken down, abandoned building is beautiful. Just like I think people are absolutely gorgeous in their broken moments, when honest words are pouring out of them, along with snot and tears. When that last shot of alcohol is finally catching up to the other 16 and through their slurred words you hear how they really feel about life. And its not that I enjoy seeing people suffer, I just see beauty in brokenness, because I know everything that is broken CAN be fixed, everything thats lost CAN be found, and those people who no one sees potential in, I see them and I see that they can change the world, just how God sees me, cause I am no better than them and they are not less than me.

Don't Ignore Entering Sweepstakes By Mail
It's hard not to notice that sweepstakes have proliferated online. Most all companies, marketers, and even blogs have taken advantage of offering their sweepstakes promotions online. They are easy and cheaper to run online. The old days of mailing in a postcard to enter seems to have all but disappeared. This has been generally accepted as a good thing by a lot of people that enter sweepstakes because there are no longer postage and paper costs. There are dozens of sites listing sweepstakes links without charge also. Our site also has a database of online sweepstakes with prize values over $1,000 available to all of our newsletter subscribers.
The only problem is, there is much, much more competition to win online sweepstakes! I believe that the sweepstakes that are more "winnable", turn out it be the very sweepstakes that you probably do not enter online. We believe that it is much more likely to win a prize in a sweepstakes that is not entered by the masses online. In other words, the sweepstakes with fewer entrants and much better odds of winning.
While you should still enter sweepstakes online, I am more inclined to put my energy
into sweepstakes that are often ignored by the masses of online entrants. These sweepstakes
may include promotions offered without an online entry such as mail-
This is where YOU have a big advantage over the masses of entries received for online
sweepstakes. We are geared to mail-

Campus Spotlight: Allie Ware makes a splash at the University of Richmond
When I first began spreading the Maji video across the interwebs, I received an outpouring of support from friends and family. I expected that. They are, of course, friends and family. What I did not expect was a wave of support from people who I had never met before.
The very first of these unexpected encounters was with Allie Ware, a student from my hometown of Milton, GA who currently attends the University of Richmond. Allie spent the past summer in Tanzania, spending time with the local Maasai people before embarking on a trek to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. During her time there, Allie experienced first-hand the struggle the local people faced in obtaining clean drinking water. She told me stories of children tugging at her water bottle, begging "Maji, Maji." For Allie, the water crisis isn't some far away problem. She's seen it. She's lived it.
So when Allie saw our video, she immediately contacted me to learn more. Within minutes, I knew she had to be a part of our team. Allie is now the pioneer of the Maji brand at the University of Richmond as a member of our Social Entrepreneurship program, and her first-hand experiences with the water crisis shines through in all of her work with Maji Bottles. Allie has a burning passion to do good in the world. Selling water bottles is just a front for Allie's real mission: to give clean Maji to those those Maasai children.
To read more about Allie's incredible story, check out this article from the University of Richmond newspaper.

Energy companies' experience of the early-1990s Gulf War suggests that any sudden increase in oil prices owing to a new Iraq conflict might be brief, since the market has become much more responsive to demand. However, current oil supplies are plentiful, according to a petroleum industry senior executive.
Petroleum politics
Skyrocketing jet fuel prices did almost nothing to slow down high-flying business jet travelers, who collectively took to the skies in record numbers this year, according to industry statistics. Now that crude oil prices are falling, analysts predict economic growth will further boost the use of business jets by corporations and the well-to-do.
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina the surge in auto-fuel prices–with the per-gallon increases lagging just hours behind the rising flood waters–was at the forefront of everybody's mind. A flurry of activity on the political front–including the release of six million barrels of crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve–further focused the nation's attention on the cost of keeping America's engines running.
European regional airlines don't need to be told that fuel prices could stunt their growth. But one industry official believes that operators must start to view high fuel costs in the broader context of all expenses, and resist the temptation to blame them for all losses. Speaking at the ERA gathering, Professor Judith Patterson reminded operators of commercial aviation's fundamental dependence on petroleum, "unlike other transport modes."
A world without oil is a breeding ground for alarmists, some say, blithely confident that it can't run out and "we'll find more," but if it ever does run out "we'll have found something else by then."
What goes up must come down, unless of course you're talking about the price of crude oil. Last month, oil topped $55 a barrel after an April report from Goldman Sachs warned of a possible "super spike" period during which the price of oil could surge to as much as $105 a barrel.

Dear friends and supporters,
Our trial has been confirmed for 10am on April 27th, just 2 weeks away! I am counting on all charges being dismissed and that I will receive a completely clean bill of legal health from the Government of Panama.
Then I will initiate slander suits against the various newspapers who libeled me. In Panama there are sever laws in favor of the injured party and there are rumblings already of who is going to be hit hard by my lawyers.
As far as a suit against the government is concerned no one really knows if they will acknowledge willingly that they made a horrible mistake and pay according. I have been told that it could happen, but less likely than the newspapers paying up without going to court.
Please help with donations if you can. My lawyer is already clamoring for payment in happy anticipation of getting me "off the hook."
I will be paying everyone back who helped me. Just go to http://www.fredsalaff.com and click on the donate by PayPal button.
Many thanks for your continued support,
Fred Salaff

South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier told Georgia's top quarterback prospect he is "nowhere near retiring" from the Gamecocks.
Flowery Branch quarterback Connor Shaw spent around 30 minutes with Spurrier during South Carolina's Junior Day on Saturday. One of the first things they talked about was Spurrier's future with the Gamecocks.
"I always hear these rumors, just like everybody else, that Coach Spurrier is going to retire in two years, so I asked him about it," Shaw said. "He [Spurrier] told me 'I'm definitely staying until we accomplish more things at South Carolina … [and] I'm nowhere near retiring.'"
Shaw, the younger brother of Georgia Tech quarterback Jaybo Shaw, is one of the state's top 2010 prospects and has early offers from South Carolina, Tech, Stanford, West Virginia and Wake Forest.
With Spurrier, rumors about his impending retirement are constantly used against South Carolina on the recruiting trail. Even one of Spurrier's former assistants, David Reaves, was accused of saying it to prospects after taking a job with Tennessee two months ago. However, Reaves later denied it, according to the Charleston (S.C.) Post and Courier.
Connor Shaw didn't ask Spurrier the loaded question to be nosey. Shaw said South Carolina has a slight lead over Georgia Tech as his frontrunner, and he wanted assurances the man he considers his "childhood idol" will be around if he signs with the Gamecocks.
"That [Saturday] was the first time I really had the chance to sit down and talk with Coach Spurrier … it was a like a dream come true," Shaw said. "Growing up, [Spurrier] was my idol when he was coaching at Florida. It's still hard for me to believe that I have the opportunity to play for him."
Spurrier pulled the prized prospect into his office and, during a lengthy conversation, let him take a peak at his Heisman trophy and many championship rings. Spurrier also let Shaw know that the admiration was mutual.
"South Carolina is bringing in a little more of shotgun offense with a zone read, and [Spurrier] said that I would pretty much be a perfect fit for that system. He said that I was the guy they wanted, and that was pretty cool hearing that from … one of college football's greatest coaches."
Shaw said he called his brother at Georgia Tech about the Spurrier experience. "Jaybo thought it was cool that I got some one-on-one time to talk with a legend."

one never knows for sure what the ole ball coach will do,but i can understand why the young man might be interested, since georgia is loaded at qb and tech plays that weird offense.
there is no doubt, spurrier can coach and he does have the ideal job where he is not under any pressure!

Connor, remember the antics of Spurrier last year. He is not allowed to go to Tucker High School or Spartanburg (SC) High School. He has proved that his word is no good. Also do you want to play at a school that has all new assistant coaches? It does make you wonder why they all left Spurrier. Do you suppose that he has made remarks to them in private about how long he will be at Looserville? How many assistants have left UGA? Read between the lines…Spurrier WILL NOT BE AT USUCK AFTER THIS YEARS 6 AND 6 RECORD. Remember Spurrier's famous remark after his QB threw an interception; "It was not your fault. It was my fault. I thought that you could make that pass."

Why play for Spurrier who has done nothing since he left FL? Has he developed a big time QB while at USC? Going to USC is kinda like entering the witness relocation program.

Nowhere near retiring huh? Famous last words. When Carolina goes 4-8 this year, there will be a press conference called and Spurrier will say "its time to move on". Book it.
