Chicago captain Jonathan Toews scored on his team's first attempt in the shootout and Patrick Sharp scored on the second before Patrick Kane was stopped with a chance to win the game.

Modernization of Japan from the late 19th century is based on the idea of systematic scientific progress. It has determined the structure of higher education, R & D funding and scholarly communication in contemporary Japan. In Japan there is rapid industrial advances with world level products and scholarly publishing also enjoys its share of exposure.
Japan has one of the high density of repositories, 184 institutional repositories in its fold (OpenDOAR). Having made considerable open access progress, Japan continues its mission to facilitate global access of its research outputs with variety of outreach programmes and initiatives with funding from Societies, Government and through International liaison.
As of May 2015, there are 98 OA journals published in Japan which are indexed in DOAJ.
Enabling Environment
In Japan, more than 130 academic institutions have introduced institutional repositories and over 700,0000 full text scholarly articles are open to the public via the national portal site JAIRO (Japanese Institutional Repositories Online). Almost 100 repositories are hosted in university libraries. Academia are pushing towards OA with arguments such as journal price pressure, universities wanting public relations, accountability for public funding among other reasons. About 2000 journal titles (from scholarly societies) are published out of which about 300 are in english.
Institutional Repositories at universities are seeking for new directions, such as mandatory deposit of research articles. In November 2010, e-science experts from nine countries met in The Royal Library, Copenhagen, for eSciDoc Days 2010 to share and discuss their projects and developments. Scientific institutions, science service institutions, universities, and libraries in Europe, North America, and Japan are using eSciDoc research results to build up e-science environments. Partners of the eSciDoc of Max Planck Society in Japan is a value-added repository with various new features. As the deposit to PubMed Central is now mandatory under the new Public Access Policy, the number of deposited articles has been increasing dramatically.
BioMed Central is a leading open access publisher with over 200 online journals, which are increasingly popular with authors from Japan. A number of Japanese societies have also chosen to publish their official journals with BioMed Central and it is keen to have further discussion with Japanese research institutions regarding open access, assist in population of institutional repositories and help institutions to support open access through our Institutional Membership Program.
Potential Barriers
Open access has not been taken seriously in Japan with no signatories on Berlin Declaration. Self archiving by scientists is still not quite a popular mode of publishing. Self-archiving Stats show that scientists are generally neither interested in nor aware of open access In Japan, therefore highlighting a need for more OA awareness-raising campaigns. No major OA publisher as yet. There is a need to establish a national OA policy. By December 2015, the government of Japan aims to improve transparency of the information on the official development assistance, including agricultural projects in accordance with the commitment made at the fourth high-level forum on aid effectiveness.
Funding Mandate
Open Access Japan, a joint project of two research grant-in-aid projects funded by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, "Integrated Research on Transformation of Scholarly Communication in Open Access Movement (Principal Investigator: Keiko KURATA, Keio University) and "Reengineering of the Functionalities of Research Libraries in the Digital Milieu(REFORM)"(Principal Investigator: Syun TUTIYA, Chiba University), has been launched with a view to facilitating the information and communication among researchers, librarians and publishers in Japanese concerning issues on Open Access as one of the currently most heavily discussed topics in scholarly communication.
Government funds univeristies to host repositories extending the funding for indexing service that existed earlier. Two OA services - NACSIS-ELS that provides 2.8M articles in 1,000 society journals and J-STAGE hosts about 200 journals as open access made possible by government funding.
As of May 2015, OpenDOAR shows 184 OA repositories to be operating in Japan. There is currently no national open Access policy. ROARMAP lists 5 OA policies, two of which are funders' mandates and three institutional OA policies. On 1 April 2013, a new repository mandate was issued by the Japanese ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.

There's been a lot of 'digging out'
It's great to break records, to exceed beyond preset limits. While it is exhilarating when some records are broken others are best left alone. Among those that might fall int0 that category are those that have to do with weather extremes. Unfortunately, it appears that the winter of 2010-11 just could pan out to be another snowfall record-breaker for the local area. Setting a weather-related record means reaching an extreme. As a general rule, extreme weather is not a good thing!

The following is a statement issued by the White House at 12:35 a.m., Monday morning in response to Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels' request for assistance following weekend flooding:
The President, yesterday, declared a major disaster exists in the State of Indiana and ordered Federal aid to supplement state and local recovery efforts in the area struck by severe storms and flooding beginning on June 6, and continuing.
Federal funding is available to state and eligible local governments and certain private nonprofit organizations on a cost-sharing basis in the counties of Bartholomew, Boone, Brown, Clay, Daviess, Dearborn, Decatur, Franklin, Greene, Henry, Jackson, Jennings, Jefferson, Johnson, Lawrence, Madison, Morgan, Monroe, Ohio, Owen, Ripley, Randolph, Rush, Shelby, Sullivan, Union, Vermillion, Vigo and Wayne for emergency protective measures, limited to direct federal assistance.
R. David Paulison, Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Department of Homeland Security, named Michael H. Smith as the Federal Coordinating Officer for federal recovery operations in the affected area.
FEMA said that damage surveys have been scheduled and more counties and additional forms of assistance may be designated after the assessments are completed.
FEMA said additional designations may be made at a later date after evaluation.
The approval granted is for immediate emergency protective measures such as water, food, power generators, medical supplies, cots and housing assistance. The approval means that in areas where local and state resources have been exhausted, FEMA will step in with needed supplies.
Currently, the federal approval does not include individual and public assistance and SBA loans. Once the state is able to complete damage assessment, further individual and public assistance will be made.

Title. Emergency department equipment for obese patients: perceptions of adequacy
Aim. This study reports an investigation to assess patients' and nurses' perceptions of equipment adequacy for obese patients presenting at an emergency department and to assess nurses' knowledge of equipment weight limits in the emergency department.
Background. The increasing weight of populations in many societies is a challenge to healthcare providers and facilities. Emergency department equipment, specifically, may be inadequate for patient care.
Methods. Two questionnaires were developed. One was administered to 134 emergency department patients with suspected cardiac ischaemia; the other was administered to their respective nurses. Patient and nurse equipment adequacy scores were computed. Patients' self-reported height and weight were used to calculate body mass index. Waist circumference was measured. The data were collected in Canada in 2005.
Findings. Patient equipment adequacy scores correlated inversely with both body mass index (r = −0·55, 95% CI = −0·70 to −0·41, P < 0·01) and waist circumference (r = −0·62, 95% CI = −0·75 to −0·48, P < 0·01). Nurse equipment adequacy scores were also inversely related to patient body mass index (r = −0·34, 95% CI = −0·50 to −0·18, P < 0·01) and waist circumference (r = −0·40, 95% CI = −0·56 to −0·24, P < 0·01). There was a weak correlation between nurse and patient equipment adequacy scores (r = 0·27, 95% CI = −0·44 to −0·10, P < 0·01). Small minorities of nurses reported accurate knowledge of weight limits for beds, commodes and toilets.
Conclusion. Specialized equipment and staff education are needed for adequate management of obese patients in the emergency department.

I am HAPPY with the performance of Micromax C114. It's a STANDARD CDMA phone which works with both RELIANCE as well as TATA INDICOM networks. The reason that made me buy this phone from the rest is because of 2 reasons
- BATTERY BACKUP (1800 mAH Li-ion)
- PRICE (Rs. 1237)
The above combination along with FLIPKART's Service made this an IRRESISTIBLE OFFER.
The phone was delivered within 4 days as promised by FLIPKART through BLUEDART courier, with first class packing which could sustain a drop as well as resistance from water.
With a single charge this phone works for 6 DAYS with 8 HOURS of Talktime which is pretty good for a phone with a price tag of just Rs 1237.
Overall i would give this phone 8/10.
Good phone, worth the price that we pay, works on all CDMA network, Modem facility is an additional advantage, good battery. Delivered in 3 days flat and i was able to track the shipment at every stage using the website.
I am using this phone just for a month and I am fully satisfied with it.
It has good battery backup, GAMES are really nice and helps you to pass time,
The most healthy part is that I am always remain connected with the people related to my business. Smart looking...
I was not a big fan of micromax, as i had a bad past experience with the company,i didn't want to buy a micromax mobile again, but, when i visited a MTS store to take CDMA sim, the shop fellow showed me this option. I have to admit, for the price i was shocked to see a good product from micromax. I don't know how long i will have this impression from the company, but the following reasons made me to grab the phone without even thinking other options,
1. Battery capacity 1800Mah, even if the reliability of the battery is 50% i will still have ample juice to run my mobile for 2-3 day with the average talking, that's 20-30min talk.
2. This mobile can be used as a modem, right now MTS India is not providing sim based network plans,but if they do in the future, or for that matter i can choose other operator as well, but coming to the point, you get a USB attached mobile internet. More over i know CDMA is good technology with good data transfers. So, this is an awesome feature.
So, friends, these two options are enough for me,atleast at this price range, and expecting anything top of these is too much to expect.
-Bhargav G.
Do not go for the price of this phone..it totally fails in its basic purpose,ie voice conversation. the Earphones lead to headache & no settings as such to change earpiece volume (OS version is of ancient times). FM is only noise.
But, FLIPKART service is awesome as usual
Build Quality: 4.5/5
Looks are great compared to the price tag. Doesn't look cheap like the other sets priced at the same range. However the cell phone is plastic and looks a little fragile. Handle with care and should last you a couple of years!
Call Quality: 5/5
My girlfriend was surprised at the amazing sound quality. I have been using Nokia N73 and I couldn't find any difference perceivable to the human ear!
Screen: 5/5
Trust me, at 1237/- you wouldn't dream to get a display like this.
Battery Backup: 5/5 (Wish I could rate it 10/5 ;-) )
Now here is the deal!
Have you ever tried chatting non-stop on a 12 hour bus journey?
Get the C114 and you'll be amazed. I still had a couple of hours after I landed.
Service and Delivery: 5/5
FlipKart deserves a 10/5 again!!
This was my first encounter with an online shopping deal. Not being too sure about the service I ordered on a Sunday Evening via "Cash On Delivery" scheme. Got a confirmation mail in 15mins. Replied.
Got a confirmation mail from flipkart in 2 hours saying that your order has been shipped and can be tracked on BlueDart. The expected date was Thursday. I laughed at the entire thing thinking that why would someone deliver me something so quick learning the fact that I haven't paid yet and there was no address proof as such!
And Thursday at 1:15pm I get a text from the BlueDart guys that you have a parcel from FlipKart, please collect it from the counter!! And I have my phone, sealed in 3 layers! :-D
Just one word: WOW!
You need the best buy sitting at your desk, FlipKart it is!
Micromax c114 is a good phone at dis price ........but nt bes &
battery is awsome .......
micromax c114 is this omh handsets
a. Low price
b. Has all basic features - phone calls, SMS, FM radio, flashlight, games, calculator, timer, world clock, etc.
c. Can be used as a modem (According to manual. I have not tested this yet)
a. Poor build quality.
b. Choice of colours used for the screen is very bad making it very difficult to read the menus. There is no option to change this.
c. The quality of the manual is very bad. You have to figure out how to use the phone by applying your common sense.
d. There are only 4 settings for volume control.
e. The earphones are connected to a microusb jack. You cannot use the standard earphones with a 3.5mm jack
f. Phonebook accepts only 10 characters for the names.
This phone is worst product of Micromax, Even in warranty period micromax service centre not able to repair it.

Sofia Coppola Was Once A Coffee-Fetching Intern, Too — For Lagerfeld
If you happen to be fortunate enough to land an internship at the Chanel atelier in Paris, your responsibilities are far from test-driving couture and entertaining Choupette with a toy mouse on a
purse chain string. It's hard work. And Sofia Coppola filled in a few of the specifics for Vogue UK. Granted the Oscar-winning filmmaker wasn't around when Lagerfeld's favorite feline ruled all, but she did intern at the storied fashion house as a teen in the '80s.
As Coppola says, her internship was kinda just like all of ours. She made coffee for her boss and shadowed him while he worked, so she could gain a true understanding for the profession. "I got to see Karl Lagerfeld doing haute couture sketches for the final shows," she tells Vogue UK. "It was incredible — he is so creative. I was getting coffee and doing intern stuff, but just to be around him was amazing." Okay, perhaps her experience wasn't exactly like our summer before junior year but, hey, we both learned how to make a cup of joe like a boss. (Vogue UK)

Virginia and Ball State Square Off For The First Time
• Virginia and Ball State will play for the first time in football on Saturday.
• Ball State, located in Muncie, Ind., is located 62 miles northwest of Indianapolis.
• The Cardinals are playing in the commonwealth of Virginia for second time in program history and for the first time since a 1975 victory at Richmond (25-14).
• Saturday's game will be Ball State's fifth all-time game against a team from the commonwealth of Virginia. Ball State has played James Madison (1997), Liberty (2010) and Richmond (1974, 1975).
Virginia Vs. The Mid-American Conference
• Virginia is 10-1-1 all-time against teams that currently represent the Mid-American Conference.
• UVa is 2-0 vs. Akron, 2-0 against Buffalo, 1-0 against Central Michigan, 1-0 against Eastern Michigan, 1-0-1 against Miami (Ohio), 1-0 against Ohio and 2-1 against Western Michigan.
• The Cavaliers have never faced the MAC's Bowling Green, Kent State, Northern Illinois or Toledo.
• Virginia is scheduled to host Kent State on Sept. 27, 2014.
Virginia Steps Out Of ACC Play
• Virginia will play its final non-conference game this weekend; UVa is 2-1 thus far in non-league play.
• UVa has won its last six October non-conference games.
• Five of those wins came in Charlottesville; the lone road contest was a victory at Middle Tennessee in 2007.
• The Cavaliers' last loss out of conference in October was Oct. 7, 2006, a 31-21 defeat at East Carolina.
• Virginia last played a non-conference game in October in 2011 when the Cavaliers beat Idaho, 21-20, in overtime.
UVa's Defense Performing at a High Level
• Virginia's defense has produced back-to-back efforts that resulted in limiting VMI (79) and Pitt (199) to less than 200 yards of total offense. UVa hasn't accomplished that feat in back-to-back weeks since 1972.
• When the feat was last done in 1972, UVa held Vanderbilt to 188 total yards and VMI to 122 total yards.
• The Cavaliers are allowing only 139.0 yards per game over the last two games, including 49 total rushing yards (24.5 yards per game).
• UVa's defense leads the nation with 8.5 three-and-outs per game. Its third-down defense ranks No. 5 nationally, allowing a .239 success rate by opponents.
• UVa is No. 8 nationally in passing yards allowed (152.8) and No. 4 in team passing efficiency defense (82.84).
• The Cavaliers are ranked No. 16 nationally in total defense (332.7). Excluding the Oregon game, UVa is allowing its opponents an average of 213.3 total yards per game and 2.97 yards per play.
• UVa is No. 10 nationally in sacks with 3.25 per game.
• UVa has registered at least three sacks in three of its four games.
• Virginia had seven sacks at Pitt, the most in a game by UVa since registering nine against Duke in 2006.
• DT Brent Urban had four tackles for a loss at Pitt, the most by a Cavalier since Chris Long had five at Maryland in 2007. The 4.0 tackles for a loss is tied for second-most in the nation this year.
• Urban is No. 1 in the nation among defensive linemen with 1.5 pass breakups per game. His mark is tied for No. 23 overall and tied with Texas Tech's Terrance Bullitt (LB) for the most by a non-defensive back.
• Freshman OLB Max Valles made his first career start at Pitt and in his second career game collected 2.5 sacks.
Ball State Connections with Virginia
• Ball State defensive line coach Chad Wilt has enjoyed two stints at UVa. Wilt was first a graduate assistant for the Cavaliers in 2004 and 2005 during UVa's MPC Computers Bowl and Music City Bowl teams.
• After three successful seasons at Liberty (2006-08), Wilt returned to Grounds as Al Groh's defensive line coach for the 2009 season. During 2009 Wilt helped mentor current NFL players Nate Collins (Bears) and Matt Conrath (Rams). Collins was a first-team All-ACC honoree during his lone season under Wilt.
• Current UVa offensive line coach Scott Wachenheim coached with Wilt for three seasons at Liberty on then-coach Danny Rocco's staff. Wachenheim was the offensive coordinator and Wilt was the special teams coordinator.
• Four other members of Ball State's coaching staff have also spent time in the commonwealth of Virginia. Head coach Pete Lembo was an assistant for one season at Hampden-Sydney. Jay Bateman (DC/ILB) has spent time at Hampden-Sydney and Richmond. Justin Lustig (ST/RB) has spent time at Christopher Newport and Shannon Morrison (DBs) also coached at Hampden-Sydney.

James Murdoch Resigns From Boards of Sun, Times Newspapers
News Corp. Deputy Chief Operating Officer James Murdoch resigned from the boards of the companies that run The Sun and The Times newspapers as he steps away from the U.K. publishing unit.
Murdoch, 38, will remain on the Times' editorial board and stay on as chairman of News International Ltd., the company said in a statement today. He was replaced on the boards by Tom Mockridge, chief executive officer of the News International newspaper unit.
Murdoch left News Group Newspapers Ltd. on Sept. 19, the day when News Corp. was said to agree to a 3 million-pound ($4.7 million) settlement for the family of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler, whose phone was hacked by the News of the World tabloid. The scandal has damaged career prospects for Murdoch, once seen as heir apparent to News Corp. Chief Executive Officer Rupert Murdoch, his father.
The move may be a step toward his resignation from News International altogether, said Claire Enders, an analyst at Enders Analysis in London.
"Other matters, in particular the matter of the extent of the phone hacking, are going to continue to surround James Murdoch, whether he has a position at News International or not," Enders said. "A path to the top is not clear right now."
Mockridge joined after News International ousted former CEO Rebekah Brooks because of her involvement in a phone-hacking scandal that led New York-based News Corp. to shutter the News of the World tabloid and shelve a 7.8 billion-pound bid for a stake in British Sky Broadcasting Group Plc.
While News International has said that Murdoch came to the company after reporters ceased hacking, police suspect that the illegal practice may have continued until 2009, according to revelations at a review of media practices led by Judge Brian Leveson.
Murdoch quit his positions at Times Newspapers Holdings Ltd., which owns the Times newspaper, and News Group Newspapers, which publishes The Sun. He left the Times post on Sept. 13, according to a filing.
"This does not lessen in any way the need for him to answer questions or take responsibility for what happened on his watch," said Labour lawmaker Harriet Harman. "The concerns about whether he is a fit and proper person to run BSkyB remain."

Tweet Posted August 25th, 2014 @ 2:49pm (Getty) Apparently backstage there was a lot of drama happening because someone had banned Solange Knowles from entering the backstage area where Beyonce was placed. Not sure if it was Jay Z that did it himself or MTV, however Beyonce was yelling at the security guards for not letting her sister in, and when Jay Z came to calm her down, she turned and started giving him attitude as well! I always thought Beyonce was the calm type, but apparently not.

Estimating the invasion success of introduced plants
We present methods for estimating the base proportion of introduced alien species that will naturalize, and the distribution of time until naturalization occurs. The approach is Bayesian, incorporating prior estimates of the probability of naturalization and the time from introduction to naturalization. A worked example uses data on the introduction and time to recorded naturalization of woody perennials introduced to South Australia. Up until 2007, 188 of 2230 (8.4%) woody perennials listed in nursery catalogues between 1843 and 1985 were recorded as having naturalized. If prior information on naturalization rates from elsewhere is ignored, the available data suggest that the most likely proportion of introduced plants that will naturalize is large (0.93) though uncertain (95% CI 0.51–0.99), with the corresponding mean time to recorded naturalization being protracted (522 years) and similarly uncertain (95% CI 360–678 years). Alternatively, if informative prior estimates of both the naturalization probability and the time to recorded naturalization are incorporated, the most likely probability of naturalization is estimated to be 18.6% (95% CI 15.5–23.4%). For those plants that do naturalize, the most likely value for the mean time from importation to recorded naturalization is 149 years (95% CI 130–174 years). Our results illustrate the potentially long timescale of the naturalization process, and the challenges this presents for obtaining accurate estimates of naturalization parameters.

Tonight I Draw Your Hair
Tonight I draw your hair,
A hair of simplicity,
With a mysterious beauty,
That no one can ever resist,
A hair that blooms with the sun,
That always shines every sunrise,
And turns into deep black at sunset,
A hair of smooth silk,
That touches my face like a baby,

Celebrating 30 years of providing fashionable comfort footwear and excellent service— Footwear etc. • Established 1986 —
Select your desired product options and we will notify you when it is back in stock.
There's nothing quite like classic ballet flat; ladylike, versatile and extremely practical the Orthaheel Women's Vionic Olivia is appropriate to wear in numerous settings. The orthotic features of this footwear will make the active long hours free of physical irritation or foot fatigue.
Shoe features include:
To clean, gently wipe surface with damp cloth and dry away from straight sunlight. Do not expose to solvents, large quantities of water, acute temperatures, or attempt to put into your washing or drying machine. For optimal comfort, only wear the shoes for a few hours at a time so your foot can gradually assimilate to the special features for the first two weeks.
I had my feet messured and wss told I was to purchase 8.5, but the 8.5 shoe fell off my foot while getting off my sailboat & ended up in the water. I bought the 8 and it fits perfectly! My feet are a bit narrow & thin on top and the 8 fits fine and stays on my feet! So all I buy now are the size 8snd I have no more problems. They do stretch out a bit after a lot of use snd I wear these a lot! I love them!!
I was so glad to find a pair of supportive shoes that had some modern style to them! The toe box and arch is very comfortable. My toes are not squished at all and these provide a lot of support. But, the heel has rubbed my ankles raw. I have to cover the backs of my heels with band-aids every time I wear them. I've had these about a month now and wear them to work almost every day. I would have thought by now they would have softened up a bit. If the heel was softer, I would give these a 5 star.
Great arch support in this dressy, but comfortable flat. Dressy enough for work but comfortable enough for jeans.
Wide is more narrow than some Orthaheel Medium wides such as the Orthaheel Myla. In fact I ordered both a wide and a medium and there was precious little difference between the two, if any.
I wasn't impressed with the arch support either. Wasn't as high as other Orthaheel shoes I have, thus doesn't keep my feet from some pronation
Everything else about the shoes was fine.
Love the color. I don't need my orthotics!
These feel just great! I have arch and heel issues and these take care of both without a my custom orthotic. And so cute too! I am going to order other styles!

"These shoes are a work of art! Stunning and beautifully crafted. I wear an 8.5 or 9 depending on the style. Usually with high wedges I go with a 9. I ordered the 8.5 since the reviews said they ran larger, but they were too snug and my toes were at the very edge. I exchanged the 8.5 for the 9 and I am glad that I did. I am impressed with Footwear etc.'s customer service. Instead of having to buy another pair and wait for the refund from the original ones, the protocol most online retailers follow; I called them and they held the 9 and sent them when they received the 8.5 pair. I feel like a million bucks in these shoes and I know that I won't see anyone else around here wearing them. They will be this summer's favorite and for years to come. I am 110% happy with this purchase and plan to make Footwear etc. my go-to for new shoes."

We're the Outfit.
We make innovative, entertainment-led advertising and multi-platform content.
Here's some of our latest news.
We make innovative, entertainment-led advertising and multi-platform content.
Here's some of our latest news.
On Friday 6th May The Outfit officially broke the internet. We partnered with Playstation, OMD and Channel 4 we created a one of a kind live event in the advert break of Gogglebox, to promote the release of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. Viewers were encouraged to Tweet their answers to a question related to our three minute trailer for the game, we then announced the winner live in the following ad break. A response of 22,000 in five minutes was unprecedented and resulted in Twitter and the hashtag #Uncharted4Live momentarily crashing under the weight of the interaction. Ok we know that Kim did it before us…
Great news for our Polydor clients this week, winning Artist Marketing Campaign of the Year at the Music Week Awards for the launch of Years & Years album 'Communion'. Beating Adele, Jess Glynne, Little Mix amongst others, The Outfit's live ad break campaign for the launch of the single 'Shine' was at the heart of launch and the award submission…
Here's a preview of a campaign we've just shot for MINI Clubman and Countryman. Featuring well-known Channel 4 personalities Charlie Luxton (Building the Dream, Homes by the Sea) and Rick Edwards (Paralympics, T4) telling us about their secret passions, the films will play out contextually in relevant programmes as well ads the talent's own shows.
More from our McCafe contextual commercials series for McDonald's this month. These latest spots feature many returning faces as well as some new additions. Here's our brilliant 'Uni Boys' Alfie, Aliko, Ben, and Gabe, discussing what it means to be in love in a spot to feature in the centre breaks of Channel 4's First Dates programmes.
Channel 4's All4 is now available on Google Chromecast, and to launch we've created a campaign featuring Channel 4 faces Phil Spencer (Location, Location, Location) and Spencer Matthews (Made in Chelsea). Phil and Spencer use the Chromecast device to flick between various Channel 4 shows in a rather civilised battle for who has control of the shows they watch…
In one of our most exotic partnership projects to date, we jetted off to Colombia with famed Channel 4 face, Jimmy Doherty, to see how Taylors of Harrogate produce truly unique tasting coffee for their Origins range. Jimmy was lucky enough to be shown around Hector's stunning coffee farm on the other side of the world, picking up tips to take back home, from one farmer to another. It was an unforgettable experience for all involved, and trust us, you've just got to taste Taylors coffee.
We've just teamed up with Which? to create 41 sponsorship idents to showcase the breadth of services they provide and how they help you make the right choice. The idents can be seen on ITV3, Channel 4, Dave, UKTV Gold, Alibi, Watch, Really and Yesterday in five different programme strands. Phew.
The first of our three super-contextual McCafé Moments over the next three weeks…
First Dates series 4 is back (hurrah) and we're all talking about it…including our McCafé Business Brothers. In the ad break of one of the first episodes of the new series, we see Joshua and John reacting to the content we've just seen on our telly's at home. Were you #teamlouis too? Here's how it played out in situ on Channel 4.
We're back with our next instalment of McCafé Moments on Channel 4. As part of our yearlong contextual partnership with McDonald's and Channel 4, we revisit our contributors to see what they've been up to. Again, we've placed the spots contextually in the audience's favourite Channel 4 shows and with a McCafé drink in hand, we hear them having a genuine natter about everything, from geeky chat-up lines to sit in the ad breaks of dating shows, to dishing the dirt on each other's homes for Channel 4's property strand. They're lovin' it.

This qualifies as breaking news to the 82 percent of Americans who are unaware that this situation exists and is not new, and therefore is not generally considered news. Maybe the big voting rights march in Atlanta this Saturday will manage to point a little attention to the lack of representation in D.C. Or maybe the endless drivel about democracy in the Middle East that keeps seeping out of the White House and the Pentagon will cause the national press corps to notice the lack of democracy in occupied D.C. Or maybe, at least, these passing references to "news" topics will help get this column published, despite the reference to emanations from the White House as "drivel".
In fact, there is something new here, namely a proposal I want to make that could possibly help solve this problem. And I mean the problem of no representation, plus the problem of Congressional control over DC government. That's right, the one part of the country that has no vote in Congress is controlled by Congress and used as a testing ground for its right-wing theories when no states with voting representation will stand for it and no Native American reservation will suit the purpose. Want to pour public dollars into private schools, but your constituents would raise hell? No problem, impose your scheme on DC and let kids whose parents don't elect anyone suffer! Want to legalize all kinds of guns and see if this really helps everyone protect themselves through preemptive strikes? Would your constituents be inclined to lock you up? Don't sweat it; try it out on D.C.
Clearly one part of the solution is letting people know that the problem exists. When asked the following question, which informs them of the problem, 82 percent of Americans say that, yes, Washington, D.C., should have voting rights in the House and Senate:
"Nearly six hundred thousand U.S. citizens live in Washington, DC. They pay full federal taxes and fight in every war. But, unlike citizens who live in the 50 states, they do not have voting representation in Congress --neither in the House of Representatives nor in the Senate. In your opinion, should DC citizens have equal voting rights in the House and the Senate, or not?"
Now, we could fantasize about creating a democratic media system that would inform Americans of this situation, but what guarantee would we have that mere majority opinion would move Congress to make a change? If that were how things worked, the minimum wage would stop being lowered, we'd have single-payer health care, the new energy bill would have focused on renewable energies, something less than two-thirds of our tax dollars would go to the military and considerably more than at present would go to education, the Social Security system would be left the heck alone thank you, CAFTA would have gone down to dramatic defeat, and Gore would be in his second term or would have been replaced by a real populist.
Now, it's possible that we can work around the media through netroots communications, but to do so requires not just a story (and one which isn't even new!). It requires activism. People need to be given something useful to do. And, in fact, getting Congress Members to care about an opinion, majority or otherwise, requires either lots of money or some serious activism.
So, here's my proposal. This was put into my head last night by a friend of mine named Bayard Brewin, speaking at a Democracy for America Meetup in D.C. I don't know if the following is what he had in mind in the very brief comment he made, but it's what he made me think of.
When the citizens of some distant state have an issue that they want to take up with Congress (say, residents of Utah who aren't fond of the idea of dumping the nation's nuclear waste on them, or residents of Alaska who have an opinion on destroying their wilderness for oil) there are a number of ways in which residents of Washington, D.C., can be helpful. DC activists, in solidarity with their brothers and sisters in the represented parts of the country, could:
Hold banners in front of the White House, Capitol, or Supreme Court.
Stage a march through D.C.
Talk to the national media.
Hand-deliver flyers to every Congress Member and Senator.
Meet with and lobby the Congress Members and Senators of the state involved.
Conduct lobbying prep sessions and serve as tour guides for allies visiting D.C. even put them up for the night
Handle logistics of press conferences and events for visitors lobbying in D.C.
Turn out a crowd for a rally in D.C. held by supportive Congress Members or Senators.
In doing each of these things on behalf of, say, the citizens of South Carolina, residents of DC could explain that they will not deprive themselves of the right to speak to Congress just because Congress has deprived them of voting members of their own.
In exchange for this work, activists back in South Carolina could do a great deal to help the residents of DC, including:
Publishing op-eds and letters about DC voting rights in local newspapers.
Speaking on local radio shows.
Organizing constituents to phone, Email, fax, and meet locally with their representatives to demand voting representation for Washington, D.C., or to demand an end to the latest abuse proposed in Congress for DC residents.
Who will handle this exchange of citizen-work?
Well, it might be that DC Vote or DC for Democracy or DC Progressive Democrats of America or some other group will want to set up a major clearing house for this kind of exchange. But that wouldn't stop other groups from doing the same, including groups of various political persuasions.
I certainly think it will be most effective for people to only lobby for causes they honestly support, even though they're giving their time in exchange for lobbying done elsewhere in the country. Let rightwing groups in DC exchange work with rightwing groups outside of it, while leftist groups do the same.
