1 Educator-Scientist Concept Mapping Workshop University of Connecticut, Avery Point Campus Hosted by the University of Connecticut & Facilitated by COSEE-Ocean Systems October 8 (12:00-5:30 pm) Scientists Only October 9, 2009 (8:30-5:00 pm) Both Groups October 10, 2009 (8:30-12:00 pm) Educators Only AGENDA Notes to Facilitators: In addition to the "icon reminders" placed at specific points in the agenda, we should strive to: Take photos of educators interacting with scientists. Take more "coverage" video (conversations, evolution of CMs, scientists commenting on their experiences, etc) Distribute hand-outs (see agenda) Thursday, October 8 Scientists Only 12:00 PM (45 min) Lunch in meeting room (University of Connecticut) Video: Empty room prior to arrival of participants arrival (Sean's request) 12:45 PM (15 min) Welcome and Overview of the Workshop Goals (Diana and Annette) Discussion of workshop as new model of interaction between scientists and educators (informal vs. formal each having unique strengths) Background of how the groups were chosen, and why Go over goals of workshop and afternoon agenda so we are all on the page Scientist Participants: David Avery, Kari Heinonen, Jim O'Donnell, Penny Vlahos, Michael Whitney 1:00 PM (30 min) Concept Mapping: The COSEE-OS Approach (Annette) Distribute EOS article and (possibly) example scientist CMs Pass out the Applicant Survey Report which includes focus questions for each scientist Short discussion of history/theory (reference EOS Article) Good examples from previous workshops Use a focus question to guide the design of your concept map Explain how the focus questions were chosen based on OL/CL principles (Annette) Realize that concept maps require an iterative process that is ongoing and collaborative- each concept map is unique to person, time and context. 1:30 PM (30 min) Let's Warm-up! Pre-activity for Concept Mapping (Annette) Watch 'Watercolumn' movie from Phytopia (optional- may nix), Given six "starter concepts", scientists will individually write down main concepts, and then pair up with another scientist or facilitator to create a warm-up CM before launching the design of their own concept maps) Make sure that there is some time to discuss their maps...
2 Take video of: Scientists working in pairs on their first concept map, and discussion of this first trial of concept mapping. 2:00 PM (15 min) Tour the COSEE-OS Ocean-Climate Interactive website (Carla) Briefly describe the theoretical design of the website (how was it designed? who helped design it? who is the intended audience?) How would your concept maps be integrated into and become a sustained part of these online tools? Don't forget to bring up: We can bring in your maps - you can be part of this! Solicit "action photos" from scientists (= get a jump start on their web pages! Ask them to give/send the photos to Facilitators before workshop end.) 2:15 PM (30 min) Getting to the Meat of the Matter: Create first draft of your individual concept maps! (Amy) Learning about your intended audience- an eighth grader with basic life and earth sciences background. This first version is created on paper. Facilitators make themselves available to help scientists in this process, while scientists start by writing down the core concepts their audience needs to know to understand their focus question. Why did we pick this level? The usual informal education target audience = eighth grade. Teams are allowed to adjust audience level if educators want to target to another age range. Pass out document on: "what eighth graders know..." (e.g., 5-8 National Science Education Standards: Physical Sciences, Life Sciences - need wording to help scientists determine if they have the correct audience level - (Amy will work on) Video 'the first efforts' at concept mapping with each scientist. 2:45 PM (15 min) Coffee and Tea with light refreshments 3:00 PM (60 min) Group Feedback: Putting our heads together (Amy) Scientists will describe their maps (5 min each), ask questions, brainstorm, and refine maps based on collaborative input. The group starts to think about how the individual maps can be linked/connected. Discuss with scientists the "presentation order" for the next day, and topics they should focus on during their presentations. Explain the scientist feedback forms and what the educators will be looking for in their presentations.) Video presentations of scientists to their peers (to be used for web pages) MAKE SURE TO TAKE PHOTOS OF THE ORIGINAL PAPER MAPS for each scientist (don't let them throw them out!) Pass out scientist feedback forms (blank) to scientists - ask them to keep evaluation parameters in mind for their next day presentations. 4:00 PM (60 min) Taking a second look at your map... Based on discussion in group feedback, scientists have a chance to take a second look at their maps and then continue on with their design. When you are ready: Go digital! Learn how to recreate your concept map in COSEE-OS Concept Map Builder (CMB): Facilitators will do this on an individual basis training scientists as they are ready. Learn how to translate your concept map from paper into a digital interactive form as the facilitators lead you through a few exercises to get you going in this multi-media environment. Your goal should be to add and connect all your concepts, and attempt to add 1-2 assets to each of your concepts through CMB
3 Video 'second round' of effort on CMs by scientists (videographer should ask more pointed questions such as "What do you think of the CM process?" "Do you foresee this process helping you as a scientist?") Make sure before the end of the day, we sit down with each scientist to go over their map: is it legible? can we understand connections and/or color-coding? have they articulated the focus question? do they understand we will be helping them create a digital version to present to educators the following day? 5:00 PM (30 min) What was your experience? Examining the process of sharing your story through concept mapping: Video this entire discussion. SurveyMonkey homework: "Scientist Evaluation (UConn_0609) Name What did you think about today's experience? What was easy/hard about this process? How did you modify your map based on your target audience? (eight-grader) Given this experience, what would you like to learn from the educators tomorrow? Do you think that this experience/products from this workshop, will be useful to you in your work? GROUP DISCUSSION: Did the group weave their research topic(s) into a cohesive story about climate change? (The group will take a new look at their concept maps to articulate how individual pieces contribute to the larger story we must relate to the public.) End of Day 1 at 5:30 pm. Note to Facilitators: Create digital CMs for each scientist (if they didn't already do this themselves). COSEE Facilitators will help scientists get their maps into the CMB for the next day s digital presentation. Send a pdf and/or jpg file of the digital CM to each scientist via so they can have a copy of their digital map to view as prep for their presentations. Print copies of each CM for each workshop participant to help 'orient' Educators, other Scientists, and Guests during the scientists' presentations on Day 2. Note to Facilitators: What are the naming conventions for all these versions of maps? Scientist Maps: Please name them: " ScientistLastname_DDMMYY " Consensus Group Maps: " ScientistLastName_Consensus_DDMMYY " Customized Educator Maps: " EducatorLastname_DDMMYY " FRIDAY, October 9, 2009 Educators and Scientists Continental BREAKFAST at 8:30 AM (20 min) Welcome, Introductions, and Overview of the Workshop Goals (Diana & Annette) This workshop is a new model for interactions between scientists and educators. Why did we ask you all those application questions about Ocean and Climate Literacy Principles? (Christy) Introduction of workshop facilitators and scientists Brief summary of how scientists have prepared for this workshop and our goals and agenda for today. Distribute Workshop Packets, Ocean and Climate Literacy Principle pamphlets 8:50 AM (50 min) Scientists in the Spotlight: Presentation of concept maps (Amy as Moderator)
4 Distribute Scientist Feedback Forms, Copies of Scientist Concept Maps...other docs? (Note: make sure to have enough copies for all participants at workshop (15 Educators + 5 Scientists +? Guests) Scientists present their concept maps to educators (short presentations 10 min). Please comment on the full concept mapping process: how did it work (or not work) for you? Educators will have copies of concept maps with focus questions from each scientist to follow along with their presentation Talk to educators regarding evaluation/feedback Order of Presentation: o David Avery (topic) o Kari Heinonen (topic) o Jim O'Donnell (topic) o Penny Vlahos (topic) o Michael Whitney (topic) Video each scientist's presentation of their concept map + feedback discussion from audience. Please follow naming conventions! (Put up slide with naming convention) - Carla will create Note to Facilitators: What are the naming conventions for all these versions of maps? Scientist Maps: Please name them: " ScientistLastname_DDMMYY " Consensus Group Maps: " ScientistLastName_Consensus_DDMMYY " Customized Educator Maps: " EducatorLastname_DDMMYY " 9:40 AM (15 min) Educator-Scientist Teams are announced (Carla) Introductions are made between team members. Educators: please provide feedback to scientist on his/her presentation (emphasis on original eight grade audience...) Take photos and video of educators interacting with scientists. For photos, try to get a good headshot of each participant. Note to Facilitators: Don't forget to make a duplicate copy of the Scientist Feedback forms (1 copy for person entering data into Surveymonkey to send to Ted, + 1 copy for archives with Annette at DMC.) 9:55 AM (35 min) Break-out Session I: Educator-Scientist Team discusses Scientist Map Directions are given for break-out sessions. Each scientist will meet with 3 educators to collaboratively view the scientist s concept map in detail. Who is the team s new audience? Educators and Scientists decide how to reconfigure the map for that group s new audience: High school students? Middle school students? Do you like the focus statement? Should it be changed for new audience? Which concepts do the scientist needs help clarifying? Which concepts do the educators need help teaching? Identify good/bad parts of map ( reality of the informal educators' settings ) Session Goal: Strategize how to revamp scientist map for new audience. Take photos and video of educators interacting with scientists - "first round" of discussions. Before end of day, make sure to get good shots of each team (= photo with 'face views' of each group member) 10:30 AM (15 min) Coffee and Tea with light refreshments 10:45 AM (1 hr 15 min) Break-out Session II: Educator-Scientist Teams design Consensus Map Educator and Scientist teams should now be actively engaged in creating a consensus map (= based on scientist's original map but now with added educator input)
5 Educators can help shape/frame the concept maps to guide their development towards national or state standards, when appropriate, and the new audience s learning level and learning progressions for their grade levels. If you are ready...go digital! Learn how to use the COSEE-OS online tool Concept Map Builder (CMB) to create concept maps. (Facilitators will do this on an individual basis training in each educator-scientists teams as they are ready. If your team is not ready for this step, there will be a tour at 1 pm to go over this in more detail.) Session II Goal: Create Consensus Map for new audience on paper. Take photos and video of educators interacting with scientists - 'second round" of discussions. For photos, try to get a good headshot of each participant. 12:00 PM (45 min) Lunch Take Group Photo now (before anyone leaves!) 12:45 PM (15 min) Concept Map Builder -Great Tutorial Challenge! (Annette) 1:00 PM (45 min) Ocean-Climate Interactive (OCI) and Concept Map Builder (CMB) Preview Tour (Carla) Explain that 20 mins will be overview, 20+ will be breakout session Working your way around within the group profile - going form CMB to OCI and back (and what each is for) - "workbench" vs. "stage". Start with posting maps to the group file, remind them about naming conventions (slide) Based on the pre-workshop materials in your welcome packet plus computer tutorials available on website, you should already be familiar with the Ocean-Climate Interactive (OCI). Further Hands-on Training in Teams (Groups, Carla as moderator) Take what you learned from the preview tour, and go! Facilitators will be available to work with each educator-scientists team to answer questions about what you learned in the tour or in the tutorials. Note to Facilitators: Ask educators to close their computers and just watch the demo (or follow along silently on their computers...) so they can concentrate on the big picture, and then they can ask questions in small group tutorials. Note to Facilitators: Consider making step-by-step instructions for each topic above. Note to Facilitators: What are the naming conventions for all these versions of maps? Scientist Maps: Please name them: " ScientistLastname_DDMMYY " Consensus Group Maps: " ScientistLastName_Consensus_DDMMYY " Customized Educator Maps: " EducatorLastname_DDMMYY " 1:45 PM (1.5 hr) Break-out Session III: Educator-Scientist Teams Make Customized Educator Maps (Groups, Amy as moderator) Each educator takes the consensus map (from Session II) and customizes it to her/his individual classroom needs. Emphasize that scientists and educators are recreating and re-imagining the map together - the educators are not doing it "for" them. Session III Goal: Create Customized Educator Map (Your goal by the end of the day should be to add and connect all your concepts for your customized map.) Photo/Video educators and scientists interacting - 'third round' of effort on CMs (videographer should ask more pointed questions such as "What do you think of the CM process?" "Do you foresee this process helping you as an educator or scientist?" "Does this process help scientists and educators communicate better?")
6 Distribute 3x5 index cards (specific to educators or scientists) with bulleted text of: For Scientists: "During consensus building your role as a scientist is still an important one, but may shift slightly as you take on more of a consultant role in your group: (a) Continue to clarify content and help with organization of the map, if needed. (b) Learn from the teachers how they are organizing this new version of the map and for what reason.." Note how this map is being transformed/modified to meet the needs of the new audience level in the teacher's classroom or program." For Educators: "During consensus building, you will work alongside your scientist to create a map together for your chosen audience." (a) Be willing to ask questions to make content more accessible and help with organization of the map. (b) Continue to discuss the evolution of your consensus map as a group. " Note how this map is being transformed/modified to meet the needs of the new audience level in the teacher's classroom or program." 3:15 PM (15 min) Coffee and Tea with light refreshments 3:30 PM (70 min) Presentations of Maps, Report Back (Groups, Amy as moderator, Christy as the map "driver") Educator-Scientist teams report back to group (15 min per group) to show their maps online, and comment on the evolution of maps (scientist concept map - consensus map - customized educator concept map) Questions to discuss: What was it like to work with a team of educators and a scientist? o Each Team: Please comment on the full concept mapping process: how did it work (or not work) for your team? o Educators: How will you use what you learned today in your teaching and learning? What was most valuable to you in working with the scientists? o Scientists: Based on your interactions with the educators, how could your research and expertise directly improve the situation? o Ask each group: "Link it up: How do these maps link/connect together to show the "BIG PICTURE"? Take photos and video of discussion about the CM experience. Suggestion: This section could be a verbal discussion for 10 minutes within teams, and 20 minutes 'open discussion' with the larger group. Our vision for this section was in part to discover the 'bigger picture' connections between the institutions/people at the workshop - in addition to the connections between concepts/ideas on the team maps. 4:40 PM (40 min) Building Bridges: Fostering Educator-Scientist Communication Networks (Groups, Annette as moderator) Demo of Workshop pages: Scientist and Educator Collaborative Pages How we are building a community of learners based on participant feedback. o How do we continue these conversations and improve the dialogue beyond the day-long workshop? o Ideas for future workshops from COSEE; Web events o How will we create pre-post materials for audiences? Take photos and video of discussion about the Educator-Scientist Communication Networks Facilitators will put up flip charts so the Educators can write up questions they would like answered or topics they want to discuss on Saturday. 5:20 PM (10 min)? Wrap Up of Day 2:
7 o o o 'Thank you' to Scientists, and Discussion of plan for Day 3 with Educators Dinner logistics, carpooling Hand out dinner location and directions 5:30-6:30 PM (1 hr) Break before Dinner at Seaman's Inn 6:30 PM (1 hr) Group Dinner SATURDAY, October 10, 2009 Educators Only BREAKFAST 8:30 AM (15 min) - Overview of Agenda for the Day & Questions from Educators (Amy as Moderator) Goal: by the end of today, we hope you will be proficient in: sharing your maps, creating your own profile adding assets be well equipped to translate this into your own classroom or work environment What we want educators to know before they leave: (internal) Search and add assets to their concept maps How to create a personal profile and share the maps. How do these maps link/connect together to show the "BIG PICTURE"? *** Make sure we ask Educators to sign up for COSEE directory (since we have almost all the information needed - except: (1) Education/Training, (2) Publications 8:45 AM (60 min) A. Clarify on how to create personal profile and sharing maps. B. Populate your concept map with assets: Images, Videos, Resources, and News - OH MY! (Carla as Moderator) Educators work individually on their customized maps to add assets to each concept Facilitators help individuals with questions about assets or other inquiries about tools/software/next steps. Session Goal: Add at least 1-2 assets to each concept on your concept map 9:45 (15 min) break 10:00 AM (1 hr) Translation: Break out sessions for informal and formal educator groups - Brainstorming Activity: How can youto use COSEE-OS resources and multimedia online tools? What are some of the different ways informal educators and formal educators perceive using these tools? Review list of options and add to them. Discussion of how to utilize these tools & content in your home environment Work in small groups to brainstorm ideas about how to use these tools/new methods in classrooms Potential Discussion Questions: o How do you visualize using the concept mapping to explore ocean-climate concepts? o How do you plan to use the COSEE-OS website in your classroom? o What do you need from COSEE to help you bring the workshop experience/tools back to your classroom? 11:05 AM (15 min) Thank you to Educators & Closing Remarks (Annette & Diana) 11:20 AM (30 min) Evaluation Time: Tell us what you think about this workshop experience...

|Indie rock, Dance, Rock, Grime, Rap

|Years active
|Founded by
|Mark Durston
Wakestock is Europe's largest wakeboard music festival, combining the cultures of music and wakeboarding. It is held on the Llŷn Peninsula in North Wales, in between Pwllheli and Llanbedrog.
Founded by Mark Durston, the festival began in Abersoch, North Wales back in 2000, when it was a wakeboard contest with a party in a car park for 800 people, and from then on played host to some of the industry's leading bands and DJ's, along with the biggest wakeboard competition in Europe. In 2008 50% of the festival was sold to current owners Kilimanjaro Live aka KiliLive.com. In 2010 the festival entered its second decade and become part of the World Wakeboard Series. After the 2010 festival founder Mark Durston took an exit to work on other projects with full ownership then taken on by Kilimanjaro Live.
The festival is split over three sites - the main festival site at Penrhos, Pwllheli Marina hosts the main wakeboard competition and Abersoch Bay hosts the Big Air Classic competition. The festival prides itself as being at the foot of the Snowdonia Mountains and looks out over Cardigan Bay.
The festival has its own wakeboard 'Pool Gap' that allows the wakeboarders to showcase the sport up on the festival site. The Pool Gap consists of two pools containing a total of 200,000 gallons of water. They are connected by street style handrails that the wakeboarders slide along being towed by an overhead cable system.
It was announced on Twitter that the festival would not be held in 2015, but would return for 2016.
Previous years have seen three stages at Wakestock, the first being the Open Air Stage, followed by the Misadventures Stage and finally the smaller Relentless Stage. Across all three stages there is a mix of live bands and DJ's. There is also a private VIP tent which features DJs throughout the weekend.
2012 Line-up[edit]
The campsite opened from 1pm on Thursday 5 July. From 6pm the campers could attend the Wakestock pre-party if they had purchased a Thursday night arena pass for £10. They also needed to be in possession of a weekend camping, single day camping or vip weekend camping ticket. Nitro hosted the Thursday night pre-party with DJ's Jaguar Skills, Nitro resident Jigsaw and Plastic Thumbs in the East Arena, doors opened from 6pm-12am.
On Thursday 19 July at 12.50am Channel 4 aired a programme showing the highlights of the festival.

Ricky Gervais slams culture of fame
Ricky Gervais thinks people will do "anything" to be famous.
The 55-year-old comic - who reprises his 'Office' alter ego David Brent in new movie 'Life on the Road' - doesn't understand why certain individuals would rather do outrageous things and be "hated" than lead a life of anonymity.
He said "We've got these ruthless people who will do anything to be famous. They live their life like an open wound. They show you breakdowns because they know that sells. They'll do anything to be on telly, and Brent can't compete with that.'
"We're soon going to have 'Celebrity Enema'. It's going to happen.
"There's no difference now between fame and infamy. People are willing to be hated because it gets them their own column or in as a guest on 'This Morning'. They're willing to say horrendous things, terrible things, to make people angry, because that creates [internet] traffic. When did that happen? When did people decide they would rather be hated than not known?'
"We've got people who know they will get on 'The Apprentice' by going, 'I will destroy anyone who stands in my way.' One of them is running for President of America. Alpha males are back with a vengeance."
Ricky - who is in a relationship with author Jane Fallon - is thankful his own fame hasn't changed him, which he believes is because he found recognition later in life.
He told Event magazine: "Oprah Winfrey said that if you don't know who you are by the time you become famous, it will define you. And it didn't, in my case. I made it when I was nearly 40. My outlook on the world was in place. Hopefully I'm wiser than I was 15 years ago, maybe, but I've got the same family, same girlfriend, same friends, same values. It's just that I can afford better things."

A message from the Trustees
Lady Viqarunnissa Noon was a unique character who founded this Trust with two main objectives: to give some of the brightest Pakistani students the chance to study at Britain's best universities and to reinforce links between Britain, the country where she was brought up, and Pakistan, her adopted home.
Vicky Noon, as she was called by her friends, had long recognised, both as wife to one of Pakistan's most honourable and prominent politicians, and after Firoz Khan Noon's death, that education was the lifeblood of any country. She believed this was true whatever the economic or political situation; and indeed that the country's future depended on the young.
Influenced by the integrity and commitment of many of Pakistan's founding fathers, she quickly realised how important it was to give opportunities to the brightest men and women of Pakistan who might play a leading role in the future. Some of these high achievers rightly aspire to attend the very best universities, such as Oxford and Cambridge. The trustees of the Noon Foundation –drawn from government, academe, public life and media, distinguished in their various ways and all connected with and fond of Pakistan (see biographies) – aim to deliver this vision, utilizing the funds that she so generously left for this purpose.
Competition to get into Oxford and Cambridge is of course fierce. Pakistanis applying for Noon funding must first approach the universities directly and secure admission. If they request Noon funding, their papers will be forwarded by the universities to us at the VNEF. We meet each year in the early summer to assess canditates the criteria set out on the preceding page, including, significantly, a commitment to return to Pakistan and contribute to life in their home country.
Since Lady Vicky Noon founded the trust in 1992, we have been able to fund more than 200 deserving young Pakistani scholars to study at the premier universities in the UK. Funds, though, are limited, even more so at times of economic stringency. So, many applicants are inevitably disappointed. But we work in partnership with various other bodies, to ensure that our support stretches as far as possible.
We take pleasure in the candidates' success, and hope to keep a record of their subsequent progress. Please do keep in touch and help to keep the hopes and ambitions of Vicky alive.
– Dr. Paul Flather, Chairman

As long as we're having so much fun with Most Controversial, Never a Good Meal, and Never a Bad Meal threads, perhaps it's time for another round of Boston Confessions.
My Post Secret: I live just near the Belgian Truffle House (a few doors down from Sound Bites). I find their product kind of corporate and meh. But since I love Belgian chocolate, and because it's so hidden (they don't open the storefront anymore), I pass it off to non-chowish friends as a "secret treat."
Bonus Post Secret: I trust the fish counter at Whole Foods Alewife almost as much as I trust Savenor's and Super 88. (What am I thinking?!)
ETA: kudos to "oystershucker" for the idea.

TV SPORTS: BASEBALL; In WPIX vs. MSG, Benches Have Cleared
By Richard Sandomir
Published: October 5, 1993
Once upon a time, the MSG Network and WPIX-TV/Channel 11 got along quite nicely. Their executives claimed to be friends. They even had a three-year deal that made non-cable homes happy: MSG, which controls the rights to all 150 locally televised Yankees games, bought the time to put 50 of them on WPIX.
But that amity expired on Sept. 24. Now, as hopes flicker that MSG and WPIX will make a new deal to keep Yankees games on free TV, war has broken out.
"They're making it impossible to make a deal," said Michael Eigner, general manager of WPIX. Yesterday, he released a 31-page analysis of MSG's deal with the Yankees that WPIX says is irrefutable evidence of MSG's reluctance to make a deal with the station. MSG called it all nonsense.
"We're disturbed that WPIX, in the midst of negotiations, would distribute erroneous and misleading information about the MSG Network's financial picture," said Bob Gutkowski, president of Madison Square Garden, parent of the network. "It is unreasonable that WPIX would attempt to do a profit-and-loss statement on the MSG Network with no accurate knowledge of our numbers."
The WPIX treatise says that when MSG claims to have lost oodles on this deal, the network is not telling the full truth. Eigner did not offer to release the profits of WPIX, which is owned by Tribune Broadcasting. He said WPIX is making money.
Said Gutkowski: "MSG would be willing to submit to an independent audit of our profits if WPIX would submit to the same audit to show its profits."
Negotiations ended in late August, yielding little except mutual rejection of each side's suggestions, including one that WPIX buy 50 games a year from $15.3 million in 1994 to $18 million in 2000. MSG says those charges are not a penny more or a penny less than what they pay the Yankees in their nearly $500 million deal with the team through 2000.
WPIX says that's not fair, and hence their unseemly battling.
MSG does not want to repeat its misbegotten WPIX deal, which it wanted in 1991 but now regrets. The network says it has lost $22 million on the deal, including $7.5 million in 1993. By paying WPIX an average $93,000 a game to put 50 games annually on WPIX, MSG retained control over game advertising on its own network and on WPIX, a situation it found preferable to selling games to WPIX and letting the station compete for Yankees ad time.
WPIX claims to have lost on the deal, too, because it sold its time to MSG for one-third it would get for selling advertising on movies. "If you came off the street, those three hours would cost you $300,000," Eigner said.
In the WPIX world, MSG really made money but omitted from their calculation one large source of revenues: subscriber fees. MSG leveraged Yankees baseball to doubling its subscribers to 5 million since 1989, and for increasing the fees cable subscribers pay to get the service. WPIX calculates that 5 million subscribers pay $1 a month for six months of Yankees baseball, or $30 million.
The Yankees' acquisition has been so potent, WPIX's Eigner said, that by increasing subscriber rolls and fees, MSG's total subscriber revenues have increased by $46 million a year since 1988.
Because one-third of the 150-game package appears on free, over-the-air WPIX -- a channel that is a staple of local cable systems, which brings substantial and valuable exposure to the less available MSG -- Eigner reckons that one-third of the fees, $10 million, would offset the $7.5 million loss and produce a $2.5 million profit.
But MSG's Gutkowski said: "If we don't have games on the MSG Network, we don't charge subscribers fees for it. It's like saying, 'WPIX, you lose a little on the Yankees, but what do you make on those other shows?' "
WPIX's tortuous calculations also conclude that MSG made $8 million on its 150-game package this year.
MSG isn't hiding the fact that it wants to recoup from WPIX some of the money it paid to Boss George. By unsuccessfully demanding of WPIX a six-year rights fee that escalates to $18 million in 2000, it is seeking an (over)payment at precisely the per-game rate MSG now (over)pays Steinbrenner.
An offer by Douglas Moss, the president of the MSG Network, cited per-game fees that rise from $305,640 in 1994 to $368,300 in 2000. Those figures are within a few dollars of what WPIX alleges are the per-game charges MSG pays to Steinbrenner.
"They know we won't pay that," said Eigner. He said the fallacy with MSG's arithmetic is that games airing on MSG generate twice the revenue (because of the subscriber money) than those on WPIX, and should be valued at a lower rate than games on MSG in any offer to WPIX.
In 1989 and 1990, when WPIX paid the Yankees between $10 million and $11 million for rights to 75 games a season, its per-game fee was more like $133,000 than $300,000. "That was economically feasible," he said.
Eigner took his case yesterday to a city official, Bill Squadron, commissioner of the Department of Telecommunications and Energy.
And Gutkowski is saying: Let's go to the independent audit.
Can't anybody here make a deal?

KADUNA, Nigeria (Reuters) - A car bomb near a church in Nigeria's northern town of Kaduna on Sunday killed at least 36 people and left 13 critically wounded, hospital staff and a Red Cross official said on Monday.
The driver attempted to force a car packed with explosives into a church compound in Kaduna but after being stopped by security he turned back and the bomb exploded by a large group of motorbike taxi riders, the police said.

Tallaght gun victim named
THIS is the man fatally injured in a gun attack in Dublin last night.
The man named locally as Alan O'Neill (35) was fatally injured in a gun attack at Kiltalown Road in Tallaght around 10.30pm last night.
The keen body-builder was shot three times in the callous attack. He was treated at the scene before being rushed to Tallaght Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Two men aged 28 and 18 have been arrested in connection with the shooting which is believed to be linked to the drug trade.
At a press conference today, Gardai said they were searching for a third suspect in connection with the murder.
The men were arrested near the scene of the shooting.
A car was found burning close to the scene and is being preserved for technical examination.
Gardai have appealed for anyone with information to contact them at Tallaght Garda Station.

The Magnificent Brad Pitt Stars in Turkish Soap Sultan's Harem 2!
According to "Al Maraa Al Yawm" 'lady's' magazine, American super-stud actor Brad Pitt has accepted an offer of an estimated 2 million dollars to guest star in scenes for the second sequel of the Turkish soap "Harem Al Sultan 2" (The Sultan's 'Women'), or Imperial Harem). Differently put, Brad Pitt may be coming to the region's TV screens soon!
The fashion mag reports that Brad Pitt, whose Arab world dreamboat counterpart, incidentally, (actually Turkish, though Arabic as far as Arab-satellite TV viewers are concerned) is Turkish Muhannad, will play the character of one of Europe's Princes who will lock horns in battle with Ottoman Sultan Sulaiman. These action scenes are scheduled to be shot in the next period.
The Turkish soap Harem Al Sultan, originally aired for the Arab world fans on Dubai TV, follows the life of the famous Ottoman Sultan "Sulaiman Al Qanouni" (Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent) and his wives. He is considered one of the most important sultans in the history of the Ottoman Empire. Not least remembered for his achievements as expanding the states' borders and putting together the 'kanuns' or 'Canonical Law' which formed the basis of the first constitution in the Ottoman State. Among Sultan Sulaiman's noteable achievements were conquering Hungary, Belgrade and Rhodes, fighting against Austria, Portugal and Iran and forming an alliance with France.
Ladies, will you be watching Harem al Sultan, season 2, already, or just now that you've heard Brad Pitt will star somewhere in the middle?

The Dagger's Ivy League Preview
7 comments:
Oh please, it's 2012, almost 2013. Will you fools please stop talking about the 2010 team. No one cares anymore.....As boring as it seems, you'd be better served to talk about the mediocre team that you'll have this year.
- October 9, 2012 at 3:54 PM

The 2010 Cornell team was the best and most successful Ivy League team in the last 30 years, since the Tournament expanded beyond just 40 teams.
The current Cornell team includes 6 players from that team. In other words, the 2010 season is recent and relevant in terms of measuring all Ivy teams.
If you want to hate and remain jealous of that team, feel free to hate and be jealous.
But the Sweet 16 was only two years ago and remains the benchmark.
- October 9, 2012 at 4:00 PM
Jealous? Of a state school? I don't think so.

The fact that you think you made an insult just shows your lack of intelligence. And you certainly are not very clever either.
- October 9, 2012 at 7:16 PM
Meiko Lyles is not on the Columbia roster.
Even with Barbour, a healthy Marc Cisco, and an experienced Alex Rosenberg, Coach Smith is going to have a tough time denting the first division of the League.
- October 9, 2012 at 7:46 PM
Lyles' name is actually back on the Columbia roster as of late yesterday.
If this is true, and he plays up to his potential, the Lions should be a first division team.
He ranks right there with Barbour, Bray, Cartwright, McGonagil, Morgan, and Rivard, among the league's top returning guards.

- The Cornell Basketball Blog said...
Interesting that you did not list Jon Gray of Cornell. He was All Ivy last year and is a 1st/2nd Team candidate again this year.
CBB could be wrong, but starting to consider Cornell a definite top 3 Ivy team and possibly even the favorite. Again, assuming Cornell stays healthy.
Big Red are a lot like the Houston Texans. Might not have the best player at any position, but might have the most depth and the most balance. Lots of size and athleticism and experience.
At this time, again barring injuries, would be shocked if Cornell did worse than 4th.
Columbia is solid, but lacks depth. Also, the lions are not very strong at the 3 or 4 (forwards). Lions have a very solid Mark Cisco (upper division big man) and a stud in Barbour and another good piece in Lyles. Not seeing much firepower at the 4/5 or much depth.
With a gun to the head, would pick Columbia 4th or 5th.
Happen to think Yale is 8th with a lot of people sleeping on a much improved Dartmouth team.
Would have Brown/Penn as interchangeable 5/6. But believe Penn has a greater upside than Brown and Columbia and has the potential to break the top 3.

Your answer is one click away!
If I have a
time_point for an arbitrary clock (say
high_resolution_clock::time_point), is there a way to convert it to a
time_point for another arbitrary clock (say
I know there would have to be limits, if this ability existed, because not all clocks are steady, but is there any functionality to help such conversions in the spec at all?
There's no way to do this precisely unless you know the precise duration difference between the two clock's epochs. And you don't know this for
high_resolution_clock and
system_clock unless
is_same<high_resolution_clock, system_clock>{} is
That being said, you can program up an approximately correct translation and it goes much like T.C. says in his comment. Indeed, libc++ plays this trick in its implementation of
The calls to
now of the different clocks are made as close together as possible, and one hopes that the thread isn't pre-empted between these two calls for too long. It's the best I know how to do, and the spec has wiggle room in it to allow for these types of shenanigans. E.g. something is allowed to wake up a little late, but not a little early.
In the case of libc++, the underlying OS only knows how to wait on
system_clock::time_point, but the spec says you must wait on
steady_clock (for good reasons). So you do what you can.
Here is a HelloWorld sketch of the idea:
#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
to_system(std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point tp)
using namespace std::chrono;
auto sys_now = system_clock::now();
auto sdy_now = steady_clock::now();
return time_point_cast<system_clock::duration>(tp - sdy_now + sys_now);
to_steady(std::chrono::system_clock::time_point tp)
using namespace std::chrono;
auto sdy_now = steady_clock::now();
auto sys_now = system_clock::now();
I was wondering whether the accuracy of the conversion proposed by T.C. and Howard Hinnant could be improved. For reference, here is the base version that I tested.
typename DstTimePointT,
typename SrcTimePointT,
typename DstClockT = typename DstTimePointT::clock,
typename SrcClockT = typename SrcTimePointT::clock
clock_cast_0th(const SrcTimePointT tp)
const auto src_now = SrcClockT::now();
const auto dst_now = DstClockT::now();
return dst_now + (tp - src_now);
Using the test
using namespace std::chrono;
const auto now = system_clock::now();
const auto steady_now = CLOCK_CAST<steady_clock::time_point>(now);
const auto system_now = CLOCK_CAST<system_clock::time_point>(steady_now);
const auto diff = system_now - now;
std::cout << duration_cast<nanoseconds>(diff).count() << '\n';
CLOCK_CAST would be
#defined to, for now,
colck_cast_0th, I collected a histogram for an idle system and one under high load. Note that this is a cold-start test. I first tried calling the function in a loop where it gives much better results. However, I think that this would give a false impression because most real-world programs probably convert a time point every now and then and will hit the cold case.
The load was generated by running the following tasks parallel to the test program. (My computer has four CPUs.)
find /usr/include -execdir grep "$(pwgen 10 1)" '{}' \; -print
hexdump /dev/urandom | gzip | hexdump | gzip | hexdump | gzip | hexdump | gzip | hexdump | gzip | hexdump | gzip | hexdump

MAZeT GmbH is introducing two new multi-channel programmable gain transimpedance amplifiers at this year's electronica: the MTI04E and the MTI08. The new JENCOLOR signal amplifiers complement the existing MTI ICs to address a number of additional applications. The circuits are generally designed for processing signals from sensors with multiple current outputs. The increased sensitivity and wider dynamic range of the amplifiers means they can be used with photodiodes in array or row sensors – such as the JENCOLOR color sensors – that operate in low-light environments or environments with extreme intensity/color changes. The MTI circuits are ROHS-compliant and are supplied in SMD housings optimized for COB assembly.
The MTI04E's functions and pin assignments are fully compatible with the existing MTI04CS/CQ signal amplifier. The main difference is that only three functional channels are integrated on the chip; this permits signal processing for tri-color sensors (incl. reference diode) within a single module. The fourth channel is reserved as a reference channel for the sensor system's temperature compensation. It is separated internally from the programmable amplifiers.
All the other functions correspond to those of the MTI04C. The ability to set the transimpedance to eight different levels offers the customer added scope to make adjustments in accordance with the application requirements. The amplifier is programmed via three inputs, with the programming effective for all channels at the same time. The lowest current range is 25 nA. The ability to convert photo currents up to the single-digit nA range makes this transimpedance amplifier ideal for even the smallest sensor signals.
When several photodiodes are to be switched on, the compensation of the transimpedance amplifiers can be adjusted digitally in two stages (5pF and 80 pF) to the input capacitance of the photodiodes.
The integrated power-down mode allows the amplifier to switch to a power-saving operating mode. When the IC is temporarily not required, the zero-signal current consumption can be reduced to 8 µA. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +125°C. These characteristics open up new applications for the signal amplifier, such as in battery-powered measuring and checking devices.
The second amplifier, the MTI08, provides eight programmable channels. In contrast to the existing MTI ICs, each channel can be configured individually with eight amplification levels ranging from 200 kOhm to 25.6 MOhm. The lowest photo current is 20 nA at a signal frequency of 19 kHz. The MTI08 provides an MUX on the output and operates at a voltage of 3…5 V with power-down mode.

Iron aim to bring in striker
By Mark Buckingham
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Scunthorpe are aiming to sign a striker on loan, with Leon Best reportedly a target.
Scunthorpe United are aiming to sign a striker on loan, with Southampton's Leon Best reportedly a prime target.
Ahead of Thursday's loan deadline, Iron boss Nigel Adkins has confirmed he is keen to pep up his attack.
Though he did not comment on rumours of an interest in Best, Adkins acknowledged he is hopeful of bringing in a new forward.
"I have had a lot of interesting telephone conversations with a number of different managers," Adkins told the Scunthorpe Telegraph. "At the moment, we are just waiting for some answers.
"The type of players we are looking at are those already in and around the fringes of the clubs where they are at now.
"It is up to those managers to decide whether they want to release them out on loan."
Best is back at Southampton after a recent loan spell at Yeovil Town and he also featured for Bournemouth earlier in the campaign.
But Adkins' hopes of signing the speedy front man could be threatened by League One promotion rivals Oldham Athletic and Nottingham Forest, who are also in the market for reinforcements.

Seems to me the Hill brothers should have a conversation as to which anime shows would be acceptable for Bobby Hill. I always kind of wished they'd done more w/the Hill brothers so it was cool you mentioned him & I have to say it's kinda cool Hank keeps up with what his son is watching cause a decent parent really should when the kids are young and easily influenced & it was cool how he liked some of the shows too.

OMG this is even funnier then the last one! LoL

Aww poor animes! STUPID HANK HILL! I would be pissed if my precious animes got thrown away and I would be especially pissed if I was forced to not watch anime.

Suit-and-tie guys don't have a lot of real estate to accessorize. That's why a recently launched collaboration between Cole Haan and Hook & Albert caught our attention with a la carte leather shoe tassels that quickly convert traditional loafers into nattily tasseled versions of themselves.
According to a company representative, Cole Haan approached the Hook & Albert folks, who brought the boutonniere business back to full bloom a few years back with knit lapel flowers, about stepping up the flair factor in men's dress shoes.
The resulting accessory consists of a copper-colored, coin-shaped metal disc that anchors a colored leather tassel. The disc is designed to fit neatly into the penny slot of a penny loafer to add a dash of panache to each shoe.
The no-hassle tassels are offered in 10 shades ranging from subtle black, chestnut and ivory to not-so-subtle tango red, chambray blue and metallic gold.
The tassels, which are handmade and hand-finished, rolled out to retail in mid-February and sell for $19.28 a pair at Cole Haan stores and on both brands' e-commerce sites.
