I have grown the black toro before. Not sure about how
it grows in the soil, but it in a pond it is great,
but had to be situated so it didn't blow over in the
I had to give it a backdrop of something light in
color. Being black, it can blend in a shadow too well
and never be seen... until it gets big and says, YO! I
am here. LOL!

Challenges in Life are meant to be,
assisting us to reach maturity.
For our reaction to circumstance
marks personal growth beyond luck and chance.
Proven is our ability to learn,
expanding mental constraints as hearts burn.
Walking in upright, godly perfection
complements Jehovah's desire for Man's compassion.
The lasting goal is surely not religious fervor,
but moving past our fallen state of being...
Prone to error.

Why Your Current Service Desk is Failing Your Business and What to do About It
Service management platforms have a vital role to play, but in most organisations, they're not living up to expectations—delivering far too much complexity and cost, and far too little business value. This proves true even in organisations that have migrated to new solutions in recent years. This paper outlines why legacy service desks and even newer platforms have not delivered on expectations, it describes the requirements for a service desk solution to be truly effective in today's business environment and it details how Nimsoft Service Desk delivers on these key requirements.

William Parker performed these three solo pieces at Tortono's Somewhere There, performing on acoustic bass, dousn'gouni and double flute, distinctive and inspired solo work.
Parker, William
At Somewhere There
Label: Barnyard
Released in: Canada
"Somewhere There is a place for informal music. This may suggest the music isn't serious but that's not what I mean at all.For example, William Parker made this music for forty rapt listeners on a hot July night in Toronto. It's a music where the form unfolded in the playing, literally a new music. His signature synaesthetic philosophy invites colour-drenched metaphors: Prismic refraction, gardens blooming, a harvest feast being prepared. This music is playful, as seriously playful as your life.
Likewise, the musicWitness®, Jeff Schlanger, the playful co-conspirator in this sightsound music, swirled a serious dance of paint, making the sounds tangible in colour. As a place for informal music, Somewhere There invited its forty guests to get inside the mysterious space where these men played. The experience was so enveloping for me that I could see the sounds William played, first in a billowing cloud and then shooting out like light-tendrils that circled my head. As this magic unfolded, though I was sitting in the back with only a wall behind me, I swear that from over my shoulder I could hear children laughing. Seriously."-Scott Thomson, July 2009

Giuseppe Rossi has claimed that Fiorentina are aiming for a Champions League place this season.
The Viola just missed out on a top three finish last time out, but the striker has insisted that playing in Europe's top-tier club competition is their goal for 2014-15.
"Fiorentina want the Champions League," he told reporters at a Vodafone event in Florence.
"But to do this we have to work hard in pre-season. We still have six weeks to prepare for the new season but we're motivated to do well.
"Let's see what happens in the transfer market."
The Italy international then commented on his own fitness, after missing out for the majority of last season with injury.
"I can't wait to play to be honest. I am doing my own custom programme at the moment, but I feel great."

Specially formulated with Tricalcium Phosphate = As easily absorbed as calcium from milk without gas/stomach problems Contains Phosphorus = Because Calcium Alone is Not Enough for Healthy Bones 600 mg Calcium in each caplet = Provides recommended daily levels of calcium Up to 4X more Vitamin D than other leading brands = helps your body absorb calcium better Specially coated smaller caplets = easier to swallow than other leading products Why has Vitamin D been increased to 500 IU per caplet?Vitamin D is extremely important in helping your body absorb calcium. Recent studies have shown that Vitamin D has other important benefits such as maintaining breast, colon, and cardiovascular health. Many of us don't get enough sun exposure or eat food sufficiently rich in Vitamin D, so now a daily regimen of Posture-D provides 1000 IU of Vitamin D. Why is Phosphorus Important?According to recent studies, consuming calcium with phosphorus is more effective at building strong bones than consuming calcium alone. If you are among the 50 million American women who don't obtain the daily RDI for phosphorus from a balanced source in their normal diet take Posture-D, the only leading calcium supplement that delivers the ratio of calcium to phosphorus found in healthy bones. Frequently Asked Questions What does "elemental" calcium mean?Elemental calcium is the usable part of the calcium. Each tablet contains 600 mg of elemental calcium. Will I get the same benefit from Posture-D if I cut or crush the tablets?Yes. If you have difficulty swallowing tablets, you can cut or crush Posture-D. What is the best way to take Posture-D for maximum absorption?Take Posture-D with food for maximum absorption. Can I take Posture-D with an iron supplement?Since calcium interferes with the absorption of iron, it's best to take your Posture/Posture-D at least one hour apart from your iron supplement. Should I take both of the Posture-D tablets at the same time, or separately?There may be some benefit to taking the tablets separately (e.g., one in the morning and one in the evening) because your body may absorb more this way. Why do they use tricalcium phosphate in Posture/Posture-D?Tricalcium phosphate is used in the Posture line because it is generally less gas-producing than other forms of calcium. Tricalcium phosphate is mined calcium. It is not from bone or shellfish. Can you tell me how tricalcium phosphate is absorbed compared to other forms of calcium, such as calcium citrate?Many factors influence the absorption of calcium, such as, the presence of vitamin D, phosphorus, the amount of calcium per tablet, and the presence of other minerals (e.g., iron decreases the absorption of calcium and magnesium increases the absorption). Calcium phosphate delivers both calcium and phosphorus. Both calcium phosphate and calcium citrate are good at being absorbed into the blood stream; however, phosphorus helps calcium to get absorbed into the bone. Phosphorus is very important for maintaining healthy bones. Recent studies show that as many as 50 million American women do not get adequate amounts of phosphorus in their diet. (Note: Posture is the only major calcium brand that delivers both calcium and phosphorus. Posture-D is unique in that it delivers vitamin-D, in addition to calcium and phosphorus, which also enhances its absorption.) Where is the carnauba wax derived from in Posture-D?The carnauba wax is obtained naturally, from the leaf buds and leaves of the Brazilian carnauba palm. How should I store Posture-D?Store your Posture/Posture-D in a closed container, at room temperature, between 59 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit for stability purposes, and keep out of reach of children. Maintaining Strong BonesStrong bones form the framework for a healthy body, and are especially important for aging women and men. Why? Because bones stop growing by the time we're 30. From age 35 on, some bone loss is a normal part of aging for both women and men. However, we can take steps to offset this loss through healthy eating/supplementation, exercise, and avoiding harmful lifestyle habits. The Role of Calcium, Vitamin D, and PhosphorusThe most important component of good bone health is calcium. Each day, calcium is deposited and withdrawn from your bones. Foods like low fat milk, yogurt, cheese, soy products, and leafy green vegetables are good natural sources of calcium. While calcium is the most prevalent element in bone, your body also needs adequate amounts of vitamin D to help absorb the calcium, and phosphorus to promote repair of bone and tissue.Whenever possible, it is best to get your minerals from foods. However, vitamin D is naturally available in only a few foods. If adequate amounts of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus are not included in your daily diet, supplements can work well. Here are some tips to help calcium supplements work best: Try taking smaller doses two times during the day. You will consume the full dose at once. Take your calcium at the same time each day, such as when you finish meals or brush your teeth Take calcium with meals, because food improves absorption of the calcium and other minerals ExerciseTwo types of exercise help build and maintain bone. Weight bearing exercises such as walking, jogging, dancing, and skiing increase bone density. Muscle strengthening exercises such as weight training and vigorous water exercises improve bone strength and muscle mass. Both types of exercise make you stronger and more agile. For optimal bone health, a good goal should be to get at least 30-40 minutes of weight bearing exercise three to four times per week, and to add muscle strengthening exercise a day or two each week. Of course, consult your physician or personal trainer if you have any questions or concerns. Lifestyle HabitsJust as we know that minerals, vitamins, and exercise help build bone, we know that certain foods and other substances accelerate bone loss. Foods that drain calcium from your bones include caffeine, alcohol, excess salt, and soda. Smoking accelerates bone loss and affects the function of calcium and other minerals and hormones in the body.

I think they're cascading as well. I also suspect that there is some UNIX-specific issue because under Windows the suite is doing something to make Windows prompt asking how to open build.sh during the tests. I've attached the output.

Though he never achieved the stardom to match, Tarka Cordell enjoyed a rock'n'roll lifestyle from almost the day he learnt to walk. Yet last Monday, the 40-year-old musician, artist, writer and itinerant bon viveur committed suicide in London, leaving his friends and family to wonder why a man blessed with such talent, wealth and good looks should wish to take his own life. His story is a cautionary tale of extraordinary privilege, romantic ideals, thwarted dreams, and unfulfilled promise.
Tarka's modest degree of fame came to him first courtesy of his connections. His father, Denny Cordell, produced records for the likes of The Cranberries and The Moody Blues. His stepmother was Marina Guinness of the Guinness dynasty. Tarka found a musical mentor in Evan Dando of The Lemonheads, and muses in the actress Liv Tyler and the models Sophie Dahl and Kate Moss. His relationship with Moss came hot on the heels of her split from Johnny Depp in 1997, and Tarka's reputation for fast living and superior seduction skills made him a plausible romantic successor to one of the world's most desired males.
In recent years he had kept a lower public profile, working on his music and art with moderate success. Tarka's life was lived in the traditional spirit of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll, but his suicide had a more poignant motive. A celebrated womaniser who claimed that all he wanted was to fall in love, friends now suggest he died of a broken heart.
In 1967, Denny Cordell made his name producing Procol Harum's classic single "A Whiter Shade of Pale". Tarka was born to Denny's first wife, Mia, the following year. He was named after the self-reliant rodent of Henry Williamson's 1927 novel, Tarka the Otter. (A woman who was to become Denny's second wife, Theodora, had, remarkably, been giving birth to her son, Tarquin, in the same hospital – and on the same day – as Tarka was born. When they eventually became step-brothers, the two boys hit it off straight away and became the best of friends. "We never had an argument in our lives," Tarka once said.)
Denny and Mia split when he was just four, leaving Tarka and his elder brother, Barney, to enjoy a spell of co-existence with their father and his musician pals in a suite at Hollywood's fabled Chateau Marmont Hotel. Later, the brothers split their time between their mother's London home and their father's Malibu mansion – interspersed with periods on the road with their father. Denny's record label, Shelter, gave a home to Tom Petty, JJ Cale and Joe Cocker; he helped the latter to stardom with Cocker's celebrated cover of The Beatles' "With a Little Help From my Friends".
As teenagers, Tarka and Barney were shipped off to Harrow for a high-class education. Though Denny was a long-haired, leather-jacketed rocker, he'd been public-school educated himself and hoped his sons might take up rather more traditional professions. Those hopes were soon dashed; Tarka hated Harrow, and soon after he escaped from its halls he high-tailed it back to Hollywood. Aged just 18, he was signed up by United Artists to write three screenplays on the basis of his sole complete script. Its subject, a nomadic surfer who moves to London, was a prescient vision of his own life.
For three years, Tarka lived in a home in the Hollywood Hills courtesy of the studio, writing and rolling around LA in a BMW. Though the movie polymath Rob Reiner supposedly declared one of his scripts to be "the Easy Rider of its day", none of the young writer's screenplays ever made it out of development. The wife of a Hollywood producer provided him with a pay cheque, drugs and the rather ornate roof over his head, he later claimed, simply because of his striking good looks.
Tarka's stepmother, Marina Guinness, tells a story about those looks, which gave him yet another career, as a part-time male model. "When he was about 18, I took him to the Blarney Stone. We were just standing by the road when a coach full of schoolgirls pulled up. The driver told us the girls had insisted he stop the bus, just so they could get a better look at Tarka," she said. It took Tarka until his early twenties to understand the powerful effect he had on women, but when he discovered his capacity for charm, he used it mercilessly. At 25, he took up with the 16-year-old Liv Tyler. And then there was Moss, whom he pursued and seduced in 1997, while sharing a New York pad with an English heiress.
Tarka's apparently dissolute lifestyle appealed to the wild-child Moss; at the time, he was known for his record collection (if not for his own recordings), his fondness for drinking at Gaz's, a Wardour Street roots club, and his habit of driving a very fast, very loud blue Capri around London in the company of a succession of beautiful women.
Over 6ft tall, skinny jeans-slim, with a halo of long, dyed grey hair and cheekbones that could slice butter, Tarka cut a dashing figure even as he approached 40. In a piece for Vogue describing his adventures during London Fashion Week in 2003, the journalist Toby Young described a tall, handsome and mysterious figure breezing through book launches, fashion show after-parties and music industry bashes, always with a supermodel on his lap, or one on each arm. The "toxic bachelor" that so fascinated Young was, of course, Tarka Cordell.
Yet soon after his fling with Moss, Tarka was in a long-term relationship that lasted five years, and ended painfully with the girl in question hooking up instead with one of his close friends. In a rare interview in 2004, Tarka described his wish to settle down with a wife and children and some money made from his musical endeavours. He craved not the wild existence he had, dating "crazy" girls such as Tyler and Moss, but a quiet life.
His professional life, meanwhile, remained as episodic and unsettled as his personal life. After his adventures in the screen trade came to nought, he took off to India for a year. "Not to be spiritual and meditate," he later recalled. "No, I rode a motorbike and took loads of drugs!"
When he returned to California, however, he found the favours had dried up. Reluctant to return to his abortive writing career, he shared a house with a musician and taught himself to play the guitar. Then he moved to New York and sought out the man whose 1992 album, It's a Shame About Ray, had inspired him to write songs. Evan Dando, the frontman for The Lemonheads, took Tarka under his wing and helped him develop his songwriting. Next, he headed for Louisiana. On his MySpace profile, he describes moving to America's Deep South, "to the swamps ... with nothing but [my] guitar and a couple of chords". There, in 1995, he helped to record an obscure, but critically lauded, album for the bluesman Charles Clinton Adcock. He spent time in the studio with the celebrated producer Jimmy Miller, and even took guitar tips from Keith Richards.
Tarka's solo musical career never took off. His debut, Bimbo in a Limo, was self-released with the help of his brother, Barney, but failed to make an impression. The tracks he left behind online come from the same school of melodic post-grunge familiar to fans of Dando's work. But Tarka, by his own admission, hadn't knuckled down fast enough to break into the business as a young blade. "I've always been a bit flaky," he confessed soon after the album's release. "When you get into having a lot of fun, you don't really work that much!"
When he married his third wife, Marina Guinness, Denny moved to Ireland, where he enjoyed a successful second career as a small-time horse trainer and breeder. And he enjoyed similar luck when he returned to the music business in 1993, discovering The Cranberries in Cork and turning them into a multi-platinum, global act. Tarka made frequent visits to Ireland to visit his father and young stepbrother, Finbar.
But early in 1995, Denny was diagnosed with cancer. Two weeks later, aged just 51, he was dead. For Tarka, who had been especially close to his father, it was a devastating blow. The young man's other role model, Denny's partner, Tony Secunda, had recently passed away, too. His relationships with men such as Dando and Richards were seen by many as a search for a mentor and father-figure to replace Denny. "[Denny and Secunda] were the two people that I had based my character on," said Tarka, "so for two or three years after they died, I didn't know who the fuck I was."
Tarka may still have been trying to decide who he was at the time of his own death. It's rumoured that he'd been going through another painful break-up, and was found hanged in his Notting Hill home just before the planned release of a new album, Wide Awake in a Dream ("a compelling story of his heady days in New York City", according to his MySpace page).
Only a few months ago, Barney's Chelsea gallery displayed an exhibition of Tarka's artwork. He'd recently returned from another trip to his beloved India. Always a wanderer, his social circle was international, from the New York musicians posting personal tributes on MySpace, to the London set he still called friends, including Meg Mathews, Sadie Frost and Mary McCartney.
The fact that Tarka was well-loved is evident from his biography. Indeed, a fight with the notoriously brattish online gambling heir Luke Weil in New York in 2004 appears to be the only documented confrontation in his adult life. Weil attacked Tarka – supposedly without provocation – with a champagne bottle at a society bash, resulting in stitches for Tarka, and assault charges for Weil. Yet no one else had a bad word to say about Tarka, including the many conquests he'd left behind along the way. "He can love them and leave them," a close friend of his once said, "but the girls don't seem to mind. They always remain friends."
A comment left on his MySpace board yesterday by one of his musical soulmates says it all: "This is the most beautiful music I was ever a part of. I love you and will miss you forever brother."

All the build-up, all the anticipation, all the singing and the judges' save rescues ... Matt Giraud.
It's not that I hate Giraud or anything. I have had weeks when I preferred him over his cuter musical-genre cousin, Kris Allen. But he has been a bit of a bore, and he's not that good a singer. Aside from Paula and Kara looking at him as if he's double-scoops-with-whipped-cream-and-jimmies and they've both got extra large spoons, I see no compelling reason for his continuing on the show. As Simon said before the Twin Hysterics began arguing, Matt's not going to win this thing.
So why save him? My theories after the jump.
1. The widespread thinking that the save was being reserved for Adam or Danny has been rendered moot by their both developing ouster-proof voting bases for as long as the save would have been available. So the judges don't have to worry about them.
2. The show believed the save had to be used for somebody, or its introduction would have been pointless. And they were running out of chances, since the save is available "up until only five finalists remain." So using it for Matt was at least a little more reasonable than using it for Megan or Scott. (I suspect now they would not have used it for Lil, based on Simon's suggestion that someone might be saved and it would surprise people whom the judges were leaning toward. After Lil's argument on Tuesday, and her clear lack of repentance on Wednesday, I don't think Simon was going to let her pass through -- especially not after he had been so adamant about Megan.)
3. The longer they waited to use the save, the riskier the two-next-week clause became, since someone good might have ended up in the bottom two for the two-must-go week. Using it now, the show knows that there's still a pool with Matt, Kris, Lil and 'Noop to provide two uncontroversial ousters while protecting Adam, Danny and Allison. As I said, Danny and Adam seem bullet-proof at this point, but Allison has been at risk before.
4. Paula, Kara, scoops, jimmies, spoons. I know, the vote is supposed to be unanimous, but since we've already had a week where Simon had to break a 2-2 tie, I think Simon especially was tired of being nagged and just decided this was time to use the save and be done with it. And if I had had to sit next to Paula & Kara during Matt's performance last night, I, too, would have asked, "What do I have to do to stop this?"
Anyway, we move on. Here's the announcement and the notes on disco week:
Finalist Matt Giraud was saved from elimination tonight by the AMERICAN IDOL judges after he received the fewest of America's over 36 million votes. This marks the first time in the eight seasons of IDOL that a finalist has been saved from America's vote.
Next week, the Top 7 finalists – Kris Allen, Anoop Desai, Matt Giraud, Danny Gokey, Allison Iraheta, Adam Lambert and Lil Rounds – take the stage again Tuesday, April 21 (8:00-9:01 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) to perform songs of the Disco era.
Tune in the following night Wednesday, April 22 (9:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) to find out which two finalists will be sent home. Season Seven runner-up David Archuleta returns to the IDOL stage to perform his new single, "A Little Too Not Over You." In addition, three Disco icons – Harry Wayne "KC" Casey (of KC and the Sunshine Band), Thelma Houston and Freda Payne – will perform a medley of their hits "Get Down Tonight," "Don't Leave Me this Way" and "Band of Gold."

text: Home > Entertainment Kris Aquino: I'm not dating ABS-CBN News Posted at Feb 07 2011 03:38 PM | Updated as of Feb 08 2011 06:49 AM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest MANILA, Philippines - Actress-host Kris Aquino is not dating anyone as of the moment. Aquino made the statement amid reports that she is now dating actor Diether Ocampo, her leading man in 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival entry "Dalaw." In an interview with "The Buzz," the President's youngest sister said she is enjoying her life as a free woman. "I'm enjoying my work, I'm enjoying my family. I'm enjoying my freedom. Mas madaling mag-trabaho ng wala kang iniilagan. The good thing about me is I'm seeing people but I'm not dating," Aquino said. Aquino is now working on the annulment of her 5-year marriage to star cager James Yap. She and the father of her youngest son, Baby James, are good friends though. She said she just recorded an album that features songs about her life and a poem dedicated to her estranged husband. "It's a compilation of all the previous albums na nagawa, sinabi ko naman kay James last na yan, close chapter na tayo. May poem ako doon tungkol sa kanya, tungkol sa akin," Aquino said. The actress-television host also called him up after she met an accident in Cebu where she and the staff of reality show "Pilipinas Got Talent (PGT)" held an audition recently. "Nahulog ako sa backstage kaya tapyas ang tuhod ko ngayon. In all fairness, naman maganda ang benefit na ang dati mong partner ay atleta kasi natawagan naman si James para magtanong kung ano ang dapat ipahid doon sa team doctor nila, noong una kasi bukol na bukol, ang laki," she said. But even after the accident, Aquino still did her job as one of the judges of PGT Season 2. "Tiring but exhilarating, may halong tension din sa amin kasi nga sobrang taas noong ratings noong susundan. It's really been such a broad spectrum of talents and it's coming itong February," she said. Aside from PGT, Aquino will also host the longest-running game show in the world, "The Price is Right." For the first time in the history of the game show, it will be hosted by a female personality. "Masaya kasi I played all the games, I have to play it in order to understand," she said.

Conquering the Mountain of Data
The opportunities for solutions providers are piling up in business intelligence, mobile databases and content management.Hospitals, government agencies, retail chains and other industry sectors are being buried by data. As the piles of digital files, X-rays and scanned-in paper records grow higher and higher, data-management applications are coming to the rescue, creating new opportunities for solutions providers. Applications showing the most promise include business intelligence, PDA-based mobile databases and content management, the last of which allows searches across both relational databases and "flat-file" data like video clips and Lotus Notes. In this complicated and quickly evolving space, statistics tell only part of the story. International Data Corp. projects that the worldwide document and content technologies market will soar from $1.1 billion in 1999 to almost $4.4 billion by 2004. More telling is the fact that top vendors such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and Sybase are pouring resources into partnership programs for this emerging market.
Meanwhile, database products keep improving and are less costly and easier to use, thus opening the doors to more solutions providers and customers.

Emergence of networks in large value payment systems (LVPSs)
This paper develops and simulates a model of emergence of networks in an interbank, RTGS payment system. A number of banks, faced with random streams of payment orders, choose whether to link directly to the payment system, or to use a correspondent bank. Settling payments directly via the system imposes liquidity costs, which depend on the maximum liquidity overdraft incurred during the day. On the other hand, using a correspondent entails paying a flat fee, charged by the correspondent to recoup liquidity costs and to extract a profit. We specify a protocol whereby banks sequentially choose whether to link directly to the system or to become clients of other banks, thus generating a client-correspondent network. We calibrate our model on real data on the UK payment system, and we compare the networks it produces with i) the true client-correspondent network, ii) the outcomes of two 'dummy' benchmark models. The model is found to outperform the benchmarks. Its predicted networks reproduce some key features of the real UK network.

If you are like me you look around our great city and see things that aren't quite right.
Homelessness, joblessness, kids going hungry, bullies, spousal abuse, racism, class warfare, human trafficking, the loss of civil dialogue & political polarization, and the list keeps going. Our tendency is to think 'they' should do something about that. 'They' could be the government, the church, the police, the city, the state, some non-profits… someone should do something.
Sure, there are some organizations who are trying to do something about all that stuff, but all of them are also short-handed, underfunded and can only do so much.
As Christians, we have a tendency to also say that 'the church' should do something about all those things as well. We say 'they should do something, but they don't.' Some of us even take shots at the church because 'they' aren't doing what they should do.
So… how does Jesus change this for us?
We Are They.
WE live in a great city. And WE see all of this stuff around us on a regular basis. As Christians WE are part of the church. And as Christians who live in this city, when we see needs and think 'they' should do something about it, WE are the they that we are speaking of. As the church of Jesus Christ we are joining God in the renewal of Austin and those who live here, and as the church, WE are they. WE are God's plan for bringing renewal.
Where do we start?
Start where you live, work and play. Take a look around your neighborhood. What looks out of place? What would it look like to live as people of hospitality in your neighborhood? Maybe it starts with inviting a neighbor to dinner. Or helping tend a yard. Or having front yard conversations that can grow from there. What would it look like to be good news and bring good news to those around you?
This kind of renewal work is best done in community. If you don't already have a local church family, we invite you to join us as we seek the renewal of Austin and beyond. Visit us on a Sunday morning or in one of our Community Groups. We would love to meet you.

The first was the Radia tapes affair where a corporate Public Relations Officer (PRO) was witnessed speaking to Barkha Dutt, Vir Sanghvi and many other prominent editors of Indian media. The topic of discussion was DMK's role in formation of the Congress led government in 2009. The Corporate PRO, representing Ratan Tata and Mukesh Ambani, seemed to be keen in pushing A Raja as the Telecom Minister of the Union Cabinet. Radia was promoting the prospects of some DMK personalities as well as the gas interests of one Ambani brother and the spectrum interests of the Tatas. What if the 2-G scam is related to it!
The second issue was when WikiLeaks published a series of unedited documents that have brought almost every major authority of this world into question. Much debate has ensued on the issues related to publishing unedited documents without prior permission and followups.
These issues are more than ethical. They are legal. Ethics take a backseat when the law comes into the picture. This is why both these issues are debated in courts. As a freelance writer who claims to be unbiased, I really don't want to add another obvious comment here. Rather, I would like to take up a larger issue that has gone unnoticed - that of unbiased journalism.
Let us examine the roots of journalism. Consider a situation when a journalist is covering a riot. People are dying around him and he has a dilemma. He can drop his camera, jump in and save a few lives. But a real journalist will just cover the episode, however ironic it may sound. He will report the real situation. That is his job. However, he will strive towards a greater objective - that the masses get to know about what has happened so that such riots may stop altogether.
What I am getting at is, a journalist has to be unbiased in his reporting. He cannot take sides and make emotional choices, not even politically. Well, according to one of my favorite journalists, Swapan Dasgupta (da), a political journalist often has to do a trade off here.Let me elaborate:
Swapan da elaborates the importance of political 'contacts'. Journalists rely on these 'contacts' for stories. Establishing these 'contacts' requires the building of long term relationships. The relationships, however, are based on understandings. The 'source' may tell you everything that has transpired in a crucial, closed-door meeting. But if he tells you that you can't write a word about it, you are obliged to respect his wishes. The price of violating the understanding is future exclusion. To survive in political journalism you can't spit and run.
Very often political journalist develop cosy relationships with sources. This is the price journalists often pay for knowing the truth. These sources can end up as friends and these personal attachments potentially jeopardize journalistic independence.
I strongly believe that a journalist's primary focus should be knowing and bringing out the truth. He should never lose sight of his motives. Personality or ideology driven journalism is still acceptable (and often interesting). But journalism driven by material favours is pure corruption.
Swapan da himself is considered close to the BJP. But I can not think of an incident when he has not criticized BJP when the need arose. However, the case with Barkha Dutt and Vir Sanghvi was different. Vir Sanghvi referred to congress as 'we'. Barkha Dutt was never far behind in going gaga over everything congress did. She was even accused of sensationalizing the coverage of the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks. Her broadcasts were used by terrorist handlers in Pakistan to relay orders back to their team in Mumbai. The credibility of Ms. Dutt and Mr. Sanghvi was always in question. The day the media had to confront the crisis was long overdue. This day in Indian media was inevitable!
I see it as a success of my nation that we read of a controversy which is being driven by the media against the media. As the nation progresses, the rotten eggs will crack. The question of Outlookpublishing unedited data is as elementary as that of Wikileaks, and debate will never cease on the matter. But the greater question on the impartiality and objectivity of the media needs to be answered as soon as possible. The sooner we do that, the better it will be for us.

The first cut needs to be the Chief of Police Allen. Did anyone do a background investigation and find out anything about this guy before he was hired? Need to check with Spalding Co and Grantville and you will find some interesting info.
#2 Nov 17, 2010
Well your comment was not in any way constructive with regards to the article!!! Just an FYI...Franklin Allen's leadership ability and any skeletons that may or may not be in his closet have nothing to do with the massive mess he has inherited from a grossly mismanaged town! Don't blame him for the irresponsible frivolous spending sprees the mayor has been responsible for! Apparently the city has been well in the black for years and .....hmmmm....now all of a sudden we are almost a third of a MILLION bucks in the red???? WTF??!!! Me thinks the skeletons we need to be worrying about are in Luther's and the council member's closets!!! Is it true what I heard that it was recently approved to spend $12,000 on Christmas lights???!! You have GOT to be kidding! Never mind that Christmas for the laid off employees and their families will now be dismal.(no I am not one of them or even know any of them!)Seems to me an audit needs to be done post-haste and the citizens need to demand WHERE DID THE MONEY GO??!!! It is afterall public record!! Show us where it went and stop punishing the ones who are here to protect the citizens of this city. Shame on you mayor!!! Can no one see it is time for some big changes in the council???
#3 Nov 22, 2010
Well it sounds like chief Allen and the Mayor will get along just fine. The neither know the meaning of budget. And if you look at the 10,000 he spent on himself to go Southern Police Institute in the beginning of this year with the money from taxpayers in Grantville. you will see that being in the red is just getting started. leave him over the Police Department Budget and there will be no city. look it up Newnan times Herald archives Newspaper.
United States
#4 Nov 23, 2010
Well if you do a little more digging you may learn that that trip was approved by Grantville's city council something like 9 months prior to the trip. Not like he up and took a trip without anyone's knowledge. Blame the city council for approving it! The same city council VOTED in by Grantville's taxpayers.
As much as you may want it to that whole thing has not a damn thing to do with what is going on in Jonesboro! I, for one, would much rather see $12,000 spent towards police training (or saving someone's job!) rather than Christmas lights!!!
United States
#5 Nov 24, 2010
Well well well, you guys are really funny.. If you look at Chief Allens history in detail, (not the rumors) you will find that he left Spalding County because someone up high in ranks got mad because Allen uncovered some corruption within the higher ranks.. Thats called Police work..duh.. And as far as Grantville is conserned.. Have you ever even been to that Inbred town of degenerates.. I mean please.. He did wonders for that small town. And the Southern Police Institute trip was NOT paid for by tax payers.. It was paid for by Drug dealers.. Get your facts straight before you go slander a good man... As far as the City of Jonesboro is concerned. They have just hired a great Chief. I am a citizen in the City of Jonesboro (lifetime citizen) and I for one am totally pleased with his professionalism and the ability to take over a complete and total mess of an administration within the Police Dept.. God bless him for the courage he must have to deal with some idiot council members.. We must vote them out if we want the city to strive once again.. Get Mayor Day in there and She along with Chief Allen And Wiggins they city will grow to where it use to be.. Oh, and replace the Volunteer Fire Dept... Stop trying to blame things on Chief Allen and try to work with him if you really care about our city...
#6 Nov 24, 2010
Awwwww...finally the voice of reason! There is hope. Chief Allen is one of the best things to happen to the police dept. He has jumped from the frying pan of the backwards town of Grantville to the fire of Jonesboro where he has the challenge of getting rid of the cancer in the police dept. Of course you can only do so much when you keep running into roadblocks from the council. History isn't pretty.
Folks who want to concentrate on blaming the current problems of a dept on a newcomer to that dept by grasping at straws by perpetuating rumors of their past obviously must have a personal axe to grind
because they were perhaps one of those 'cancers' to have been taken care of at some point by that newcomer. Hmmmmm?

Maybe this just confirms what you already knew, but a new study by Pew shows that Republicans don't care about global warming. Only 12% of Republicans in the January 2008 poll thought dealing with global warming should be a "top priority," as oppposed to 47% of Democrats and 38% of Independents. In fact, global warming was the issue Republicans cared least about.

A University of Cincinnati study has found that the hotter the liquid, the faster polycarbonate plastic bottles release toxins. Currently, reusable water bottles, baby bottles, and many other containers are made out of polycarbonate plastic. (For an easy guide to types of plastics and their dangers, click here.)
Researchers found that plastic bottles holding boiling water released bisphenol A, an environmental pollutant, up to 55 times faster than those containing room-temperature water. Baby formula is commonly boiled in preparation, so it's likely that very hot formula could leach high amounts of bisphenol A from baby bottles. However, the researchers do not know how much bisphenol A humans would have to consume before it became harmful.
Bipsphenol A is known to cause cancer and hormone irregularities and is "just one of many estrogen-like chemicals people are exposed to," said lead researcher Scott Belcher, "and scientists are still trying to figure out how these endocrine disruptors—including natural phyto-estrogens from soy which are often considered healthy—collectively impact human health."
While scientists figure out the effects, you might consider switching your plastic travel mug to stainless steel.

As a vegetarian, pet-owning urbanite who's never been hunting, I find it hard to stomach the idea of grown men with rifles killing fuzzy baby animals. So it was with mixed feelings I read today that Alaskan tribes will have to wait until November to see if they can legally cull wolf pups and bear cubs in their dens along the Kuskokwim River. The now-banned practice, traditional among Orutsaramuit people in southwestern Alaska, is intended to reduce predators killing too many of the moose that tribes rely on for subsistence hunting. While conservationists predictably see the practice as cruel, the real bone of contention lies between the state of Alaska and tribal officials.

Here's yet another reason to keep your New Year's resolution to exercise this year: people who work out have younger-looking cells than those who don't.
In the study, conducted at King's College in London, 1,200 pairs of British twins were tested. Just one hundred minutes of activity a week made cells of active twins look five to six years younger than their couch potato counterparts. With three hours of exercise, the cells looked nine years younger.
Young-looking cells may not seem much to crow about, but scientists have long theorized the younger your cells appear under a microscope, the younger you look on the outside. As cells age, they divide. Over time, a cell loses its ability to divide and dies, causing aging symptoms like wrinkles, reduced organ function, and poor eyesight. So while exercise helps you feel better and keeps you healthy, it may also help you look younger.
Excuse me while my cells and I slip on our running shoes.

Geologically speaking, nature usually calls the shots. Historically it's been the case that major natural events—shifting tectonic plates, volcanoes, even asteroids—have shaped the trajectory of life on this planet. Not anymore. A team of researchers from the University of Leicester and the Geological Society of London is the latest group to make the case that the Holocene era is coming to an end, and the Anthropocene (meaning, basically, man-made) is on its way in. Our impact on the planet is so profound, say the scientists, we've changed our home for good. The evidence:
* Vastly altered sediment erosion and deposition patterns.
* Major disturbances to the carbon cycle and global temperature.
* Wholesale changes in biology, from altered flowering times to new migration patterns.
* Acidification of the ocean, which threatens tiny marine life that forms the bottom of the food chain.
This isn't a new idea. The term "Anthropocene Era" was coined by Paul Crutzen, winner of the 1995 Chemistry Nobel Prize. Crutzen identified three phases of the era—and made some guesses as to what we can expect next.

Americans do not reduce. We may reuse, and we may recycle, but our economic system is predicated on steady consumption. So it makes sense that while trying to invent our way out of the consequences of global warming, we would seize upon those ideas that encouraged us to, well, consume. In other words, business as usual.
Today's quick fix is brought to us by Coskata. This Illinois-based energy startup, thanks to a hefty investment from GM, has already announced its triumph in the race for a new global energy source. The winning product? Bargain ethanol. Coskata's innovative technology, which lets anaerobic "patented microorganisms" eat syngas (a carbon monoxide and hydrogen compound formed by processing biomass such as corn husks), allows the company to produce waste-free ethanol from almost anything you give them: tires, factory waste, switchgrass, you name it.
What's more, says the company, because its process can convert so many different types of material into essentially pure ethanol, the fuel could be locally produced anywhere in the world. Each gallon will generate nearly eight times as much energy as it takes to make it, and the product reduces carbon emissions by 84%. The production cost of this miracle fuel? $1 per gallon.

Invasive species like the Asian tiger mosquito are on the rise in Europe, French researchers recently reported. Nineteen new invasive species made Europe their home every year from 2000 to 2007. (From 1950 to 1975, only about 10 species per year established themselves.)

A while back, I blogged about how global warming skeptics were all smug and glowy (and wrong) about how Antarctica's not melting. If the sea ice in the South Pole is actually increasing, the reasoning went, then how could the planet be warming? Huh? Huh? Well, for a number of reasons, that logic is false, but guess what? It may be moot point anyway, since it turns out that the western part of Antarctica is melting—and fast: Ice loss in the region has increased by 75 percent over the past ten years.
A team of researchers led by scientists from UC Irvine discovered that the underlying cause for the melting was accelerated glacier flow, which is, in turn, caused by warming oceans. All that melting means higher sea levels:
They detected a sharp jump in Antarctica's ice loss, from enough ice to raise global sea level by 0.3 millimeters (.01 inches) a year in 1996, to 0.5 millimeters (.02 inches) a year in 2006.
That level of melting puts western Antarctica almost on par with Greenland, a dubious distinction, to say the very least.

Last year California passed a much-heralded law requiring oil companies to cut the carbon intensity of their fuel 10 percent by 2020. The state is allowing ethanol to be used as one low-carbon substitute, and recently raised the cap on ethanol in gasoline from six to ten percent. You've probably read about the ways the ethanol craze contributes to higher food prices around the world, but what nobody has calculated, until now, is how this affects ethanol's true carbon footprint. In an analysis released January 17th, two UC Berkeley researchers found that ethanol actually produces more carbon emissions than gasoline. As a result, the carbon intensity of California fuel has ironically risen, between 3 and 33 percent.
The researchers, professors Michael O'Hare and and Alexander Farrell, take issue with the model state regulators used to calculate ethanol's carbon output, arguing that it did not factor in the indirect effects on the global food supply. Among other things, higher corn prices cause farmers half-way around the world to convert more forests into farmland, and those trees are then burned or decay, releasing more carbon into the atmosphere. The professors pointed this out in a letter sent earlier this month to the California Air Board, which is discussing changing its carbon model in light of the findings.
Josh HarkinsonJan. 24, 2008 1:05 PM
Eleven Nobel laureates, nine congressmen, multiple university presidents, and the heads of numerous science organizations have signed a petition calling for a presidential science debate this year. "Science and engineering have driven half the nation's growth in GDP over the last half-century, and lie at the center of many of the major policy and economic challenges the next president will face," says Alan Leshner, CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. "We feel that a presidential debate on science would be helpful to America's national political dialogue."
It's not surprising that the candidates haven't jumped at the idea. Global-warming- and evolution-denying Republicans would look hilarious in such a forum, but even Democrats might worry about making a gaffe while weighing in on debates that are normally left to the experts. Still, it seems like an idea Democrats should take seriously. By signaling to voters that science is important, it would drum up support for the party's ideas, and, more fundamentally, lay out how post-Middle-Ages worldview translates into superior leadership.

Buying various types of clothes along with toys and footwear is the most important part of these shopping needs. It is an accepted fact that things for the needs of every child are available almost everywhere but the quality and price always matter. That is why people have started developing a better idea of shopping newborn baby clothes and that is certainly through the websites of these companies.

Greetings everyone,
Thank you for dropping by my website. The main purpose of this site is to help people keep track and get updated with the latest technological advancements and modernization. In line with this, we will feature interesting technology news and provide some simple life-hack tips to make things easier and more convenient.
Stay tuned!
Here's a story that made an impact on me and something I thought interesting enough to include on here and also because in future I expected to write about the Amazon drones that they are planning to use to deliver orders. That will definitely be a story to cover. This I feel is the pre-cursor to that event.
I was browsing online today (Sept 16th 2015) when I came across an ad on Amazon offering FREE 1 and 2 hour delivery in Los Angeles and Orange County. That is INSANE! Just stopping for a moment, I paused to figure out how it was even possible. Of course it's only available for items in a nearby Amazon warehouse however with my experience of product based businesses I still find it nothing short of amazing. They have to pick, and pack the order and arrange the courier service (who need to be ready to go) and then fight So Cal traffic in order to deliver! There is a minimum spend of $30 but even then I can't figure out how they turn a profit on such a small order. Presumably it's a loss leader while the service catches on and I am sure will only be available in highly concentrated areas where many orders get fulfilled at once and where business is high. I'm intrigued enough to be ordering now. I am buying a Nalgene water bottle, 2 Amazon basics cables for iphones and one genuine apple lightning cable. I'll be sure to jump back here later and let you know how it worked out. Exciting! By the way, if you want to try this out and you live in OC or LA the service is called AMAZON PRIME NOW.
2 hours and 5 minutes later –
My order arrived!
Perfectly packaged as always with Amazon, complete and to be fair – on time (within 5 mins of the order promise). That's acceptable in my book. I am heading out to a meeting now courtesy of the best Anaheim limo service and I am going to try the Amazon basics cable. I've been looking at these for a while, wondering if they were really just Chinese knockoffs that you can buy from Ali Express for less than 5c each. Now I read that Amazon have full Apple certification on them so I expect them to work. The reason for buying them is my son destroys his lightning cables so fast and I am tied of paying out $20 per cable when these are less than half the price. We've tried the Chinese ones, but the Apple IOS knows they are not legit and generally they don't work, or they break within a week or so.
Anyway, enough ramblings for now. Check out my blog here
