When does an independent contractor become a public utility? That's the question the Illinois Supreme Court debated during the September term in People ex rel. Department of Labor v. E.R.H. Enterprises, Inc. Based upon the heavy questioning of both sides, the Justices of the Court appear to be conflicted.
The Labor Department issued defendants a subpoena for product of certain employment records in 2008. The subpoena stated that the Department was investigating whether the defendant's repair work on certain water mains for the Village of Bement had been done in compliance with the Prevailing Wage Act. Several months later, the Department filed a complaint seeking to have defendant held in civil contempt for failing to comply with the subpoena. The defendant defended on the grounds that it was a public utility and therefore exempt from the Prevailing Wage Act. The trial court twice rejected the company's position, holding that defendant was not a public utility. However, the Appellate Court reversed, holding that defendant satisfied the definition of a public utility from the Public Utilities Act, which it imported into the Prevailing Wage Act.
Counsel for the Illinois Department of Labor began by sketching the factual background of the case. Justice Freeman asked whether defendant was obligated to provide water services to the residents. Counsel responded that defendant was obligated to assist the village in providing water services. Justice Freeman asked whether that would indicate that defendant was operating the facility for public use. Counsel responded that it would not pursuant to the Court's own precedent in Mississippi River Fuel Corp. v. Illinois Commerce Commission, where the Court defined public use as occurring where the company held itself out as the one providing the service. Defendant can walk away from its contract with the village in five years, counsel argued; a public utility can't do that. Counsel argued that under Public Utilities Code Section 3-105, if a facility is municipally owned, it could not be a public utility, even if it was operated by a lessee or agent. Part of the purpose of the Public Utilities Act is to get records and reports from the company, counsel argued. One doesn't have that need when a municipality like the village owned the facility. Justice Burke asked whether defendant provided water to every resident, and counsel responded that the Department would say that the defendant helps the village do so. Justice Garman stated that the Prevailing Wage Act doesn't apply to public utilities, and counsel confirmed that. Justice Garman pointed out that the Act doesn't expressly incorporate the definition of a "utility" from the Public Utilities Act, and wondered why the Court should do so. Counsel argued that the legislature had adopted the Prevailing Wage Act in 1941 against a backdrop of the Public Utilities Act, which was enacted years earlier. Justice Burke asked whether the Court should look to the conduct of the parties - wasn't the welfare of the entire community dependent on the conduct of the defendant in providing the water? Surely the village was intimately involved, working hand-in-hand with the defendant, then? Counsel conceded that there was a significant public benefit from the services defendant provides. The statute requires more, however; under Mississippi River Fuel Co., the company has to be holding itself out to the public as the entity providing the service. Justice Karmeier suggested that if the Court didn't look to the Public Utilities Act, why shouldn't it look to Black's Law Dictionary for the definition of a utility, as the Appellate Court did? Counsel responded that the statutory exception which excluded a government-owned facility was a long-standing one, forming the law of the period which the legislature would have legislated against. It makes sense, counsel argued, to exclude public utilities if rates were subject to regulation by the Illinois Commerce Commission because otherwise, two agencies would be pulling in opposite direction. Here, the defendant is not regulated by the ICC. Justice Karmeier asked whether, if the village was doing exactly what the defendant was doing, the village would be subject to the statute. Counsel responded that government entities are never subject to the statute. Justice Karmeier clarified that counsel meant government entities were exempt whether they were technically public utilities or not, and counsel explained that government had once been classified as regulated utilities, but the Court struck that statute down in the early 1960s.
Counsel for the defendant began by pointing out that his client operates water and sewer systems for twenty different municipalities. Justice Thomas asked why the public utilities exception to the Prevailing Wage Act would be meant to apply to one who provides services not to the public, but to municipalities. Counsel responded that Bement was a small village; there was nobody else to operate the plant. The defendant didn't assist the village in providing service; the defendant itself provides the service. If they don't, service just doesn't happen. Counsel argued that if the Prevailing Wage Act is applied to companies like the defendant, older, smaller cities may not be able to pay their contractors to run their systems anymore. Justice Karmeier wondered why Section 3-105(b) doesn't take the defendant out of the definition of a public utility. Counsel responded that to accept the Department's argument, one must shift from talking about companies in subsection (a) to talking about pipes, a plant and a delivery system in subsection (b). Justice Thomas asked whether the concept of the defendant being a public utility is based on the job it's performing at a particular time -- if the defendant walks away in five years at the end of its contract, is it no longer a public utility? Is the defendant a public utility for one facility and not another? Counsel responded that the defendant's relationships tend to be long term; its business relationship with the village was lasted approximately twenty-six years. Justice Thomas asked whether the defendant is barred from work that would clearly not be that of a public utility. Counsel responded that defendant was not; from time to time, it did public works, and it bid and paid prevailing wages when it did. Justice Thomas proposed a hypothetical: what about a company that spent 90% of its time doing public works and ten percent as a public utility - was it still a public utility? Counsel said yes; the status went with what the defendant's expertise and primary function is. Justice Thomas asked if the defendant were filling out an application and it asked are you a public utility, would the company say "sometimes"? Counsel suggested that the defendant would say "primarily." Justice Garman asked whether, if the system was operated entirely by the village, it would qualify as a public utility. Counsel repeated that in that case, the system would be exempt from the Prevailing Wage Act pursuant to the Court's former decisions.
In rebuttal, counsel for the Department argued that if the village owned the system, it would not be a public utility. The legislature made the decision to apply a different rule on these facts in order to protect the defendant's workers, counsel argued. Justice Garman asked whether the issue was one of statutory interpretation, and equitable considerations didn't inform the decision. Counsel responded that it was primarily a statutory question, and the policy issues had already been taken into account by the legislature. The fact that the Illinois Commerce Commission had no contact with the defendant and didn't regulate it was significant, counsel argued.

2.5 acres, but probably .25 of that is the farm pond. The property is
quite hilly, in fact the only part that approximates flat is the small
front yard. (DH has to use both a mini tractor with a roll bar and a
riding mower to mow.) I live southeast of Quincy, IL, a Mississippi

arrival of Europeans.

it is a great system, sales will climb on the release of some of their key franchises. Mario Kart, Animal crossing and the likes will make the Wii-U a must own in the near future
I can't wait for Monster Hunter, Wii U Fit U and like you said, more great titles to come. The gamepad adds a great feel to the game play, now they need to get the better games out in North America.
Wonder how long this system is going to last. If MS or Sony releases a new console next year (doubtful, unless end of year), then the Wii U is going to fall on it's face.
Is the Wii U region locked?
I recall you couldn't buy foreign Wii games to work with a Japanese version, but the DS wasn't region locked.
Is the menu locked in Japanese?
The Wii menu was locked in Japanese. I could get around it somewhat, but it was a pain.
Yes the Wii U is region locked, even the game pad is region locked!! drives me mad as there are so many games I want to play on the 3DS from Japan but unless I but a second console I am stuffed!

Coconut Crepes with Fresh Mangoes
Coconut crepes, dusted with confectioners' sugar and served with mango, are an Indian dessert similar to the French classic. They can be prepared a day in advance.
- Servings: 6
- Yield: Makes 12
Source: Martha Stewart Living, February 2003
- 1 3/4 cups unsweetened coconut milk
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons superfine sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons, freshly grated or desiccated coconut
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
- 2 fresh mangoes, peeled, pitted, and sliced into thin wedges, for serving
- Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with several layers of paper towels; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together coconut milk, eggs, superfine sugar, cardamom, and salt. Whisk in flour, coconut, and whole milk.
Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Using a paper towel, rub inside of skillet with a thin coating of butter. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into center of pan, tilting and swirling to evenly coat bottom with a thin layer; pour any excess batter back into bowl.
Cook until crepe is golden on bottom and top is almost dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip crepe, and cook until golden, about 30 seconds. Invert crepe onto prepared baking sheet, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining batter, rubbing pan with more butter before making each crepe.
Brush butter over tops of warm crepes. Place a few slices of mango on each. Fold, or roll crepes to enclose. Place on a serving platter. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve with any remaining mango slices on the side.

Even the abuse is a delight when, as Roberto Mancini put it yesterday, you have taken your football club to its "best moment in the last 40 years".
This time last week Mark Hughes was describing him as an "autocratic" manager for whom it is "his way or the highway" but the current occupant of the Manchester City manager's chair brushed that away as nonchalantly yesterday as he has Manchester United. "I don't know Mark Hughes and he doesn't know me but I'm happy when he talks to the newspapers because before every game that he talks we win 6-1, 4-1. Every game," Mancini said.
Before facing Mancini at Craven Cottage last November Hughes accused Mancini of having shown a lack of professional respect in welcoming City's overtures before the Welshman had been sacked. City won that match 4-1. "Yes, it was the same [then]," he added. "I'm happy. If he talks about me before every game I'd be happy." He would not disparage another manager, he said. "Absolutely not because I don't know all the managers here. I don't have any problem. I don't know because I don't know [Hughes]. I met him two or three times. It's impossible for me [to say] but I have respect for his opinion."
Even abusive Manchester United fans delighted Mancini on the drive home from Old Trafford last Sunday. "I had some United fans saying, 'I'm red but congratulations for the victory,'" he chuckled. "Two or three were saying 'f*** off!'. You can understand after the game it's difficult."
The clouds have not entirely lifted over the Etihad Stadium. It has been a bad week for City in the war with Carlos Tevez and though Mancini attempted to airbrush the Argentinian out of the picture yesterday – asserting that "if we don't have any injuries or problems with the players we have I think that we can continue with three strikers". City have, significantly, accepted that they will have to play Tevez again this season, to avoid falling foul of Fifa regulations.
Article 15 of Fifa's Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players stipulates that the striker is entitled to terminate his contract under "sporting just cause" next summer if he has appeared or been on the field for less than 10 per cent of City's overall game time by then.
City are determined to avoid a repeat of the case of Goran Pandev, the Macedonian forward sidelined by Lazio, who filed for termination of his contract and was awarded €170,000 for emotional distress. This means that Mancini may be forced to give Tevez, whom City have said they will not allow to leave for less than £40m in January, the equivalent of nearly four full games if he is not sold in that window. Legal precedent is that the 10 per cent definition relates to a club's overall game time. Based on City playing 60 matches this season (they played 59 last term), Tevez will have to play 540 minutes, which means another 351 to find. Using up the time through substitutes' appearances will be difficult.
Mancini, meanwhile, focuses on preventing complacency, with his side five points clear. City beat United home and away under Sven Goran Eriksson in 2008, for example, but that was the highlight of the campaign. "They were a different team when Sven was the manager," Mancini reflected. "In one game you can beat any team but winning the title is different. If we won the title but lost to United, I'd be happy."

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
See here, 1. How formidable kings are, and what a terror they strike upon those they are angry with. Their fear, with which (especially when they are absolute and their will is a law) they keep their subjects in awe, is as the roaring of a lion, which is very dreadful to the creatures he preys upon, and makes them tremble so that they cannot escape from him. Those princes that rule by wisdom and love rule like God himself, and bear his image; but those that rule merely by terror, and with a high hand, do but rule like a lion in the forest, with a brutal power. Oderint, dum metuant—Let them hate, provided they fear. 2. How unwise therefore those are that quarrel with them, that are angry at them, and so provoke them to anger. They sin against their own lives. Much more do those do so that provoke the King of kings to anger. Nemo me impune lacesset—No one shall provoke me with impunity.

Earlier this year, Hyperloop One announced a list of design partners that included Aecom, Arup, and Bjarke Ingels Group. Now, RB Systems—which was a finalist in the SpaceX Hyperloop One Pod Competition—has released a speculative design vision for a Hyperloop station and passenger pod. The spatial and programmatic concepts are largely experimental, as there are no precedents for this futuristic building typology.
RB Systems Proposes Cutting-Edge Hyperloop Station
BIG and Hyperloop One Unveil Designs for Unprecedented Autonomous Transportation System
Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and Hyperloop One have unveiled joint designs for an autonomous transportation system and the world's first Hyperloop pods and portals in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The designs are being presented as Hyperloop One signs a deal with the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), bringing the project one step closer to reality.
Tesla Unveils Fully-Integrated Solar Roof System
Elon Musk has revealed his company Tesla's latest world-changing innovation: a solar roof system so fully integrated into a home's architecture as to be indistinguishable from a traditional roof.
MIT Students Win Competition to Design Hyperloop Pods
A group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) engineering students has won the first round of a competition to design transport "pods" for Elon Musk's ultra-fast Hyperloop. Selected from more than 100 other university teams, the top teams will now have the opportunity to build their pods for a trial run on the Hyperloop Test Track (now under construction) by April 2016. If successful, the pods will be able to transport up to 30 people at speeds of 700 miles-per-hour through the Hyperloop's 12-foot diameter tube.
How Driverless Cars Could, Should - and Shouldn't - Reshape Our Cities
In the race to bring driverless cars from a futuristic fantasy to a present-day reality, developers have touted a plethora of advantages, from reduced traffic congestion on roads to improved safety thanks to the elimination of human error. But the potential widespread implementation of driverless cars could also have profound impacts on the form of our urban environments, fundamentally reshaping infrastructure and land use. As recently as a year ago, this new technology was seen as decades away; however, recently Elon Musk, CEO of electric car maker Tesla, predicted that driverless cars will be capable of making cross-country treks within about two years, and a pilot program in the United Kingdom city of Milton Keynes plans to launch a fleet of driverless pod-taxis by 2018, matching Musk's timeline.
The driverless car future could be just around the corner, and the normally slow-changing infrastructure of cities could be forced to apply quick fixes to adapt. At the same time, the full potential of driverless cars cannot be realized without implementing significant changes to the urban fabric. So how will driverless cars change how our cities work, and how will our cities adapt to accommodate them?
Elon Musk's Ultra-Fast Hyperloop Begins to Take Shape
Hyperloop Technologies is starting to realize its high-speed transit system. As Tech.Mic reports, pipes for the project's first test tube are showing up in Nevada. Hyperloop was first outlined by Elon Musk in 2013 as a response to California's pricey bullet train plan that aim to connect Los Angeles to San Francisco. The ultra-fast, energy efficient Hyperloop proposes to send pods of people through a depressurized tube at speeds up to 700 miles-per-hour. It is believed that the new system could be running as soon as 2020.
Video: How Tesla's Powerwall Will Provide Energy to the World
The world's energy infrastructure may soon undergo significant change; Tesla Motors recently unveiled the Powerwall, a compact, lithium-ion battery pack that will allow residents to autonomously consume energy by drawing from their own sun-powered reserve. For just $3,500, you can purchase an attractive, wall-mounted battery capable of storing up to 10 kilowatt-hours of energy - about a third of what the average US household uses daily. Beyond this, the company will also be offering scalable Powerpacks to businesses and utility companies that will allow limitless storage. Powerwalls will go out for delivery this summer.
Who Will We Consider Today's Greatest Design Innovators, Tomorrow?
Often, it is only with hindsight that we can truly understand our world; looking back at how important certain events and people proved to be is much easier than predicting their importance at the time. Still, guessing who will be remembered in posterity is a fun game, so The Atlantic asked various industry leaders "Who Will Tomorrow's Historians Consider Today's Greatest Inventors?" The answers span across business, science, technology and design, and among the 9 nominations there are a few names that architects and urban designers may find interesting. Read on after the break to find out just who they are.
Details Unveiled for Elon Musk's California, Solar-Powered "Hyperloop"
Imagine driving your car into a sizable aluminum pod and being shot 800 miles per hour through an elevated, shotgun-like barrel to arrive at a city 400 miles away within 30 minutes. According to Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and co-founder of Tesla Motors, Californians will be doing this within the next decade.

why does the color fade
i have a 40G tank that just finished cycling. sometimes after i turn the light off for a little while the color on a few of my tiger barbs and red eye tetras fade. the color then eventually returns to normal after i leave the light on.
is this normal or is there something wrong?
is this normal or is there something wrong?

It's normal. Some fish "sleep" during the dark therefore their colors become faded as they become inactive.:)

I think about it every night and day!

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-3479) Changed/unexpected query plan when running test 'lang/predicatePushdown.sql'
|Wed, 05 Mar 2008 18:07:41 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3479?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12575441#action_12575441 ] A B commented on DERBY-3479: ---------------------------- > I noticed that other tests that depend on stable query plans (wisconsin and StalePlansTest) > set derby.storage.checkpointInterval=100000. This is an interesting observation. When I read it I assumed that this number was greater than the default and that by setting it we were avoiding checkpoints. But it turns out that the opposite is true: the default checkpoint interval is 10*1024*1024, while 100000 is the *minimum* checkpoint interval allowed (see raw/LogToFile.java). With the default interval we will not do any checkpoints during the running of predicatePushdown.sql; but with the minimum interval of 100000, we do THREE checkpoints (at least on my machine). So I wonder if the checkpoint does something which updates the row counts and/or statistics for the tables, thus affecting the optimizer's decisions? I have no idea what the answer to that might be... > Perhaps changing the concurrency/timing in the buffer manager somehow changes when > the row count is flushed While scanning LogToFile.java for the default checkpoint interval, I noticed the following: ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // setup checkpoint daemon and cache cleaner ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// checkpointDaemon = rawStoreFactory.getDaemon(); if (checkpointDaemon != null) { myClientNumber = checkpointDaemon.subscribe(this, true /*onDemandOnly */); // use the same daemon for the cache cleaner dataFactory.setupCacheCleaner(checkpointDaemon); } Note how the *same* daemon service is used for checkpointing and for cleaning the cache. The call to "setupCacheCleaner" ultimately ends up at CacheManager.java, which was modified by DERBY-2911. So I wonder if this daemon "sharing" could explain a) why a different cache manager has an effect on predicatePushdown.sql, and/or b) why changing the checkpoint interval seems to alleviate the effect? Not sure if that's useful info or not, as I'm completely out of my knowledge base here. But I thought I'd mention it. In the meantime, do you think it would be worth it set checkpointInterval to 100000 to see if that gets predicatePushdown passing in the tinderbox again? > Changed/unexpected query plan when running test 'lang/predicatePushdown.sql' > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3479 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3479 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Regression Test Failure > Affects Versions: 10.4.0.0 > Environment: OS: Solaris 10 6/06 s10x_u2wos_09a X86 64bits - SunOS 5.10 Generic_118855-14 > JVM: Sun Microsystems Inc., java version "1.6.0_04", Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_04-b12), Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode) > Reporter: Ole Solberg > > Seen in tinderbox since r631930. > See e.g. http://dbtg.thresher.com/derby/test/tinderbox_trunk16/jvm1.6/testing/testlog/SunOS-5.10_i86pc-i386/631932-derbyall_diff.txt : > *** Start: predicatePushdown jdk1.6.0_04 derbyall:derbylang 2008-02-28 14:02:49 *** > 9285 del > < Rows seen from the left = 20 > 9285a9285 > > Rows seen from the left = 10 > 9297 del > < Rows seen from the right = 20 > 9297a9297 > > Rows seen from the right = 10 > 9299 del > < Rows returned = 20 > 9299a9299 > > Rows returned = 10 > . > . > . -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Very nice people
The people who owned the Guesthouse and the people taking over from them on the weekend of 24/25 June were all very nice.
Unfortunately the bedroom was extremely small, it is not nice to see put up wardrobes and drawers like they are, a proper wardrobe and drawer would be much better. Also I think they should try sleeping in the beds themselves, the mattress is so hard and the pillows are like rocks. The bedding was very drab looking. Much better to have white or cream, makes the room look inviting. The breakfast was very nice, but nothing special

This review is from: Corsair Carbide Series 330R Blackout Edition CC-9011076-WW Black Steel, Aluminum, and Plastic ATX Mid-Tower Computer Case
Pros: It is small, yet spacious enough to accommodate my needs. Overall I think this is a great case for the price and the sound deadening definitely works, which the I was going for a silent gaming rig.
Cons: Only real issue is cable management. If you don't have a modular PSU like me, you will be left tons of cables and no place to put them. But since the case doesn't have a window, no one will ever see it so not much of a con.
Other Thoughts: Got a slight ding in the cover for the back of the case making it a little hard to slide on and secure in place, but overall does not take away from the case. Also would've been nice to have rubber grommets for the wiring holes in the case.READ FULL REVIEW

Hit Pick
If you frequent upscale coffeehouses or shopping malls or listen to a lot of public radio, its possible that you have heard the music of Darren Curtis Skanson -- Friday, September 22, through Sunday, September 24, at FlatIron Crossing -- without even realizing it. The classical guitarist, who formerly served as one-half of the local instrumental duo Watson and Company before striking out on a solo career, plays a soft, lilting form of modern classical music that is designed to be as soothing as it is engaging. Skanson, who sometimes augments his arrangements with a string section, displays strands of traditionalism while avoiding the austere presentation that sometimes frightens away the uninitiated. His new disc, Classica, is a good example of his modernist approach: It includes works by composers Brahms and Beethoven, as well as his own compositions. In the end, what he plays is simply beautiful acoustic music, the kind braved only by the rarely talented.

How to Use Social Media + Helpful Tips
January and February are traditionally slower months in the wedding world, so I've surrounded myself with piles of books in light of the extra time and I couldn't be happier. I'm a fiction lover, but recently spent time delving into business resources. Two books that have really impressed me were Jab Jab Jab Right Hook by Guy Vaynerchuk and TRUST – Mastering the Art of Content Creation and Successful Blogging by Lawrence Chan. I read these books simultaneously and learned SO much about leveraging social media in my business.
I'm a huge proponent of social media (which may be an understatement), but reading about the reasons why it's important and how to do it are priceless. Chan writes, "Your focus to deliver content of consistent quality that will eventually convert readers into fans, fans into clients, and clients into evangelists." I couldn't agree more.
While Chan's e-reader has a heavy emphasis on the photography world, Vaynerchuck outlines The Rules of Good Content for any business. I found this particularly insightful, so I'll share Vaynerchuk's points, but apply them to the photo industry as an example.
The Rules
1. It's Native
You can put out good content (a great status update), but if it ignores the context of the platform on which it appears, it can fall flat. So often I see photographers sync their Facebook status to Twitter, but what appears on Twitter is an incomplete update that usually ends with "…couldn't believe he …fb.me/10U7B…". That fb link drives me crazy!! There are few people reading Twitter who will click back to your Facebook page to finish reading. It's a wasted update on Twitter and not native to its platform. Learn each media outlet. Learn what works best on Instagram, learn how to maximize your voice on Facebook, edit your tweets to fit in 140 characters…basically, respect each platform or else you'll fall flat in each.
2. It Doesn't Interrupt
The greatest appeal to social media is that people naturally gravitate to it. The micro-conversations are its greatest appeal, but it's important to not disturb the entertainment value social media provides. Unlike traditional marketing (like commercials), people prefer to consume marketing the same way they consume their entertainment: seamlessly. So often I see photographers using social media solely to promote their latest work ("Off to shoot an engagement session" or "Here's a sneak peek of last week's shoot" or "Just blogged a wedding") begins to feel like a stream of commercials. And who subscribes to a channel of just commercials?
3. It Doesn't Make Demands – Often
As small business owners, the goal of social media is usually to create a sale or, at least, make prospective clients aware of our products or services, but this must be balanced with showing your human side. Be gracious. Be giving. Be funny. Be all the things we enjoy in others. Don't use social media as a tool just to talk about yourself…talk about your favorite movies, join The Bachelor conversation, share a moment together. The best thing a business can do is balance an emotional connection so when you do make a request or call to action (like, showcasing a new blog post), people are apt to follow through because they like you…as a person.
4. It Leverages Pop Culture
This is self-explanatory, but I can say that when someone posts a link to their favorite song and I like it too, I can't help but think they're extra awesome. With little to no effort at all, someone showcased his sensibilities and drew me closer to him because of our mutual tastes.
5. It's Micro
Social media is less about marketing and more about creating small conversations around your content (photos, updates, videos). Vaynerchuk writes, "It should be serving as the nexus connecting every other channel by which businesses talk to their customers." By successfully telling micro stories, clients have a way to connect in a 24/7 online world.
6. It's Consistent and Self-Aware
Solid social media interactions showcase who you are not just what you do…and this is the best way to get noticed in a saturated market with businesses that offer the same services. If you content can make someone feel, she's more likely to share it with others and this is the best word of mouth endorsements you can get.
Whew, this was a doozey of a post…if you stayed with me until the end, I know it has nothing to do with me, but with the great content Chan and Vaynerchuk provided. If you're looking for ways to understand social media, definitely read Jab Jab Jab Right Hook and to find ways to leverage social media in relation to your blog, Chan's e-reader is great! Happy Reading!

Hi Jasmine,
I love this! I've been thinking about social media a lot recently and I feel so overwhelmed by how to use it effectively. But I just ordered Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook yesterday, so now I'm even more excited for it to arrive! I really want to engage so much more with social media. I'm not completely awful at it, but I find it so hard to work out the line between friendly and annoyingly cheesy! So I just stay waaaay away from the line! I'm finally looking forward to getting more involved in a confident way.

February 15th, 2014 at 1:48 pm
Pretty cool post!
February 15th, 2014 at 4:37 pm
Great suggestions, I think I will be taking a look at those books! I have such a difficult time using social media to market myself, let alone attempt to form an emotional connection with my followers.

Excellent advice! Thanks for sharing and for the recommended books! (puts them on my book list 🙂 )

The part about microstories is great. Even the smallest things can be told as a little story.

The comment regarding microstories is right on point. We live in a world where we must be succinct to communicate effectively.

6 MAY 2013, BRUSSELS – Ansell, a global leader in protective solutions, has developed a new education module, "Prevention of Sharps Injuries in the Healthcare Setting," to help support the European Union Directive (2010/32/EU) for implementing the Framework Agreement on prevention of sharp injuries in the healthcare sector.
The directive mandates that by 11 May 2013, all Member States must implement the necessary measures to ensure compliance and that penalties shall be imposed for infringing on these requirements. The new education module from Ansell supports compliance by providing healthcare workers with best practices for protecting against sharps injuries and reducing the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
"Occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens via percutaneous injuries is one of the most serious dangers healthcare workers face on a daily basis..," said Peter Dobbelsteijn, SVP & Regional Director EMEA, Ansell. "This risk can be reduced through implementation of the EU Directive, employee education, clear communication, use of engineered devices, and focused work practice controls. Ansell helps reduce the risk of injuries like these by providing quality educational opportunities, such as this new educational course, and technologically advanced protection and prevention solutions."
Ansell has a long-standing commitment to advancing the education of healthcare workers in Europe. The sharps injuries education module is the seventh course developed and sponsored by Ansell that is accredited by the EORNA ACE (Accreditation Council for Education), the independent European body for nursing event accreditation, hosted by the European Operating Room Nurses Association (EORNA).
"The majority of sharps injuries occur to nurses because they are most likely to be carrying out procedures using sharps. The main objective of EORNA is to educate healthcare workers on ways to enhance the standard of care for patients in the perioperative environment, and to promote staff wellfare," said Caroline Higgins, President, EORNA. "It is our pleasure to partner with Ansell in achieving this goal."
The new Ansell education module will be available on http://www.anselleurope.com/medical and www.eorna.eu. The module, accredited by EORNA ACE, will provide nurses 0.7 accreditation points upon completion.

From the Marcellus Drilling News:
At the end of 2011, MarkWest Energy and The Energy & Minerals Group (EMG) announced that MarkWest was buying out EMG's share in a 3-year-old joint venture deal in the wet gas portion of the Marcellus Shale called MarkWest Liberty Midstream. EMG owned a 49% stake in that JV (see MarkWest Pays $1.8B to Buy Out JV Partner in Liberty Midstream). At the time of the buyout, the two companies announced they would form a new JV to build midstream infrastructure in Ohio's Utica Shale starting in 2012.
The new Utica JV (called MarkWest Utica EMG) ramped up in early 2012 as the pair set out to duplicate their success in building out the Marcellus in the fledgling Utica. The strategy? "Creating a large network of processing complexes connected through an extensive NGL gathering system," which they immediately began to do by beginning construction on two new processing complexes in Harrison and Monroe counties in Ohio (see MarkWest to Expand/Build NGL Plants on New Agreements). Just one tiny problem: the Utica JV is now running short on cash…
On Tuesday, MarkWest and EMG announced an update to their Utica JV plans: EMG is more than doubling their investment in the Utica JV—from $450 million to $950 million. Normally an increase like that would mean EMG gets a bigger ownership share of the JV, but according to the press release, such is not the case. Interesting.
In the same announcement, MarkWest says they will contribute an additional $150 million to the Utica JV on "a short-term basis." MarkWest will be reimbursed for its "contribution" out of the new money coming from EMG. Translation: The JV is going well but cash has dried up, so MarkWest is floating the JV a short-term loan until a larger "hit" comes in from EMG.
In addition to the two processing complexes they're building, the Utica JV is working on gathering pipeline systems and pipelines for natural gas liquids (NLGs). The Utica JV has signed up Antero Resources, Gulfport Energy and Rex Energy as customers for their pipeline/processing plant infrastructure. The JV plans call for pipelines to other processing plants and even a connection from one of their plants to the ATEX ethane pipeline which will carry ethane from the Marcellus and Utica all the way to the Gulf Coast for processing.
Here is the statement from the two companies:
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2013--
MarkWest and EMG also executed an amendment to the L.L.C. Agreement that provides for MarkWest to contribute up to
The Utica Joint Venture is currently developing a fully-integrated midstream system to support rapidly expanding development plans of producers including Antero Resources,
The anticipated additional capital contributions by EMG will allow the Utica Joint Venture to continue to rapidly expand its presence throughout the
"We are pleased to announce the continued development of our
"We are thrilled to once again leverage our relationship with MarkWest to help meet their liquidity needs with a large scale flexible solution that contemporaneously meets the needs of the producer community for additional capacity given the drilling results experienced to date in the Utica," stated

The pianist Graham Johnson has written that, with the news of Benjamin Britten's death that mild winter's day in 1976, we lost the composer "who would have been most likely to find a means of maintaining the writing of English songs with piano as a living art". The simple fact that, had he survived, he'd now have been a mere 81, and still composing, drives home the point.
In reality, a seemingly inexhaustible flow of new-old works and re-mastered early recordings has kept his memory green. And though these have been ersatz premieres to fill the aching void left by those great works that never came to pass, fond memories of those real premieres that are now legendary - the "tingle factor" of a wartime recording of the Seven Sonnets of Michelangelo heard for the first time, or a BBC radio score recovered from the vaults some 60 years on - cannot be denied.
And from Collins Classics comes a further timely helping of undiscovered Britten in the form of a three-CD collection of the complete folk-songs, with 10 previously unknown numbers sung by Philip Langridge and Felicity Lott, and 14 orchestral versions of folk-songs dating from the 1940s and 1950s. Set against the background of the Wigmore Hall's forthcoming season of Britten songs that promises the complete cycles, the canticles, and further remnants from the bottom drawer, this latest issue is a potent reminder not only of our uniquely enduring fascination with Britten's art, but also of the particular store he set by these neglected arrangements and their relation to the songs in general.
Intended as recital material for Peter Pears (with Britten at the piano), they're anything but crumbs from the rich man's table, and as a complete oeuvre they have their own striking vitality. Deft orchestral versions of classics such as "Oliver Cromwell", "Little Sir William" and "O Waly, Waly" cast new light on the colours of the original versions. Hidden traits are revealed in Britten's enduring fascination with "The Bitter Withy", which appears not only in the late orchestral Suite on English Folk Tunes, but also in an incomplete version for boys' choir from 1962. There's even a chance to hear one of Britten's least known works: his settings of Moore's Irish Melodies collected as Volume 4 of the folk-song arrangements.
And individually, even the least impressive of these songs reminds us of his special way with folk-song. Two protagonists are always present: the tune itself, and the composer, whose accompaniments soothe, heckle or contradict the melody with all the rhythmic and harmonic skills of a mid-century tonal master. This was the rub for the folk-song purists. Cecil Sharp and Vaughan Williams, like the Russian editors such as Balakirev and Rimsky-Korsakov before them, believed in "invisible" piano parts that graciously clothed the original in harmonious mode and rhythm. By contrast, both in these folk-songs and in his 1948 arrangement of The Beggar's Opera, Britten followed Percy Grainger's example and added his own personality to the tunes - tunes that he loved, in Donald Mitchell's words, "as if he had composed them himself".
And so he did; no less so than Tippett, another folk-song enthusiast who stands far back from the pastoral ideal. Yet Britten's kind of loving had this special quality of secondary possession that is also a feature of his vocal work as a whole. Accomplished songwriters before him - Stanford, Gurney, Quilter - set words to music; but Britten took possession of the words through music as if they were his own. Nobody hearing Parry's Shakespeare settings is likely to think differently of Shakespeare. Yet hearing Britten's Hardy, Donne or Eliot changes unalterably your perception of English poetry, leaves you gripped by another realm of poetic truth beyond the purely literary.
How a composer came to have this gift, and whether it could be repeated, are further and related questions. The same skill to write "many different kinds of music" that Britten saw as the key to his operatic success is clearly important for the songs too. By accident of time and place, his style was richly heterodox, making it an instrument of wide-ranging response to the chosen words. And loving was equally important here, for he surely "loved" the music of Schubert, Mahler, Purcell and others, as if he'd composed it himself - though in reality he couldn't. And so the subtle parodies of traditional genre styles, the lean orchestration, the naive- sophisticate common chords and the peerless tone painting are a kind of wish fulfilment, a substitute act that led to a new style altogether.
As for the words, language itself made him a gift of its unity which a modern composer can only envy. Again, by accident of time and place, Britten could explore the highways and byways of English literature in the vast anthology of his vocal works and still keep faith with his audience. His Auden settings seem the test case here. How many composers today could hope to explore the work of contemporary poets with such eagerness and understanding? And where, for that matter, are the rising poets who speak to the general reader, and young composers, with such synoptic radicalism as that of Auden?
In truth, the world has changed, along with the status of composer, reader and poet. And this he might have guessed. Graham Johnson, who features largely on the Collins discs, says that in the time he knew him, the last seven years of his life, Britten himself sometimes felt that the age of song-writing was over. Young Brittens today are more likely to be budding sequencers than pianists, more likely to be exploring rap than The Golden Treasury. Heard this way, the folk-songs, handmade artefacts for amateurs to sing and play, are late attempts to revive the common tradition that now takes its place as but one element within a common plurality.
Or maybe not. For despite our assumptions, we are ignorant of the long perspective in which these works will be placed 20, 50 or 100 years from now. All we know for certain is their quality of perfection, which with all our relative values, is still the hallmark of a classic. After all, even Johnson's living art of English song, moribund of late, may one day revive in unexpected form. Until then, let's be thankful for what we already have, singers and listeners alike.
