Ok people, as you have probably seen on Facebook the past few days, we have decided to let guitarist, Mark go. This decision was not an easy one at all and as we know people have their opinions on the situation, which everyone is entitled to, but we feel as a band we have made the correct decision and by band we mean Dan, James & Alex, as it was agreed by ALL 3 members.
This decision has no reflection on our feelings for Mark as a person, this is strictly a decision made by the band for the band. We obviously have our reasons why, but we see no reason to share them with anyone except the people involved within the band as it only leads to pointless bickering and childish, which no-one really wants to read.
We wish Mark nothing but best wishes for his future endeavors.
As for the band now, we will NOT be looking for a replacement, but will be now continuing as a 3 piece band.
Thank you all for your time.
Dan, James & Alex

|International Development Bill
Dr. Tonge: Will the hon. Lady be content if progress towards the poverty targets were addressed within the existing annual report, or does she require a separate document?
Mrs. Gillan: Having heard the Minister's response, I shall develop my argument and pick up on the hon. Lady's point later.
When I went through the manifesto document ``A Fresh Start for Britain: Labour's Strategy for Britain in the Modern World'', which the Labour party produced before the last general election, I came across a specific promise:
I am alarmed that the Minister should use such a simple argument to remove a tool that could benefit him, the Secretary of State and the Department. I appreciate that there is an annual report; I have no problem with that. However, putting the report on the face of the Bill would provide assistance similar to that provided by including the focuses of poverty and sustainable development.
6 pm
I do not accept the Minister's arguments. He wants to have his cake and eat it. He is happy to deploy one argument on one point and another argument on another point, but that is not satisfactory. I reiterate that I would like more information about the publishing of detailed performance indicators on sector-wide programmes so that we can have confidence in spending on AIDS, for example. The Minister has not replied to that point other than to say that he hopes that a new report will be laid before Parliament on 26 March. I welcome that new, but would it not have been better to make that report available to Members of Parliament before the Bill was scrutinised? Had it been available to us, we might not have found it necessary to table the amendment, but how can we judge? Do we have to trust what the Minister says, or will he provide proofs of the annual report?
Mr. Mullin: Although the hon. Lady will probably deny it, I strongly suspect that when she tabled the amendment, she was unaware that the Department publishes an annual report containing much of the information that she has requested. I certainly heard nothing in the lengthy contribution that she made at the beginning of our debate to suggest that she was aware of that fact. One or two other Committee members made it clear in their speeches that they were aware of it, including my hon. Friend the Member for Clydebank and Milngavie and the hon. Member for Faversham and Mid-Kent.
Mrs. Gillan: I have a copy of it here.
Mr. Mullin: Why, then, did the hon. Lady not refer to it?
Mrs. Gillan: I was trying to save time. I have watched the faces of Labour Members who are sitting firmly on their backsides making no contribution to the debate. At least Conservative Members are trying, in a spirit of co-operation, to improve the legislation. To refer to the report is otiose when we all have a copy of itI see the hon. Member for Clydebank and Milngavie holding up his copy. Not only do I have the report in my possession, but I was able to quote the costings to the right hon. Member for Coatbridge and Chryston when he challenged me on how much the Department had spent on publications, including promotional publications.
Instead of the Minister telling us that the new report is expected on 26 Marchlong after the guillotine on scrutiny of the Billit would have been preferable to have had that report before us now, as that would have enabled us to judge the quality and see what improvements the Minister has made.
I asked the Minister what recognition of aid quality there is in the Bill but, again, he chose to ignore my question. I will give way to the Minister if he would like to tell us the answer now. No, it appears that the Minister cannot answer that question, which is a shame.
Mr. Mullin: The Minister is getting very weary of this.
Mrs. Gillan: The Minister has not been up all night, as I have, so he will just have to stay awake a little longer.
Dr. Tonge: The support that I felt for the amendment is draining out through my feet by the minute. It might not concern the hon. Lady, but if she goes on for much longer, it will have drained away altogether.
Mrs. Gillan: Good things never last for long. I did not expect that support from the Liberal Democrats would last even until the end of the debate on an amendment. [Interruption.] Despite the mockery from Labour Members and the lack of patience exhibited by the hon. Member for Richmond Park, the amendment was intended to strengthen the Bill. It was an attempt to move the Department into a more pivotal position and help the Government to fulfil their manifesto promises.
In their election manifesto, the Government said that they would bring development issues back into the mainstream of Government decision making. I believe that failing to have a debate and failing to have the annual report laid before Parliament and fully debated is a big gap both in the promises that the Government made to the electorate and in their good intentions for the Department. I emphasise that we wholly support the Minister's intentions; obviously, he will not accept our honest offer.
In conclusion, I am sad to say that I cannot let the matter drop. We feel strongly about it, so I am unable to withdraw the amendment.
Question put, That the amendment be made:
The Committee divided: Ayes 4, Noes 9.
Division No. 5]
Mrs. Gillan: I beg to move amendment No. 6, in page 1, line 20, at end insert
It is with great trepidation that I rise to speak to amendment No. 6, as I appear to be hogging the limelight on the Committee. It is such a shame that so many Labour Members who have valuable contributions to make to our debate and who should not be afraid of making them just because the Committee must end at 5 o'clock on Thursday evening have felt constrained to sit on their hands. That will not go unnoticed.
The Minister will be pleased to know that amendment No. 6 is merely a probing amendment. It has been tabled to reflect some of the concerns expressed on Second Reading and would allow the Secretary of State to fund public information campaigns in developing countries to reduce economic migration. The Bill will allow such programmes to be funded from the aid budget, which is an important issue that needs discussing within the context of the clause.
I was going to make a comment for the sake of all members of the Committee, including the Minister and the usual channel, but I see that the Government Whip is not in his placehe is in and out of the Room like a yo-yo. I shall keep my remark to myself until he returns.
We tabled the probing amendment in part to reflect the concerns expressed by my hon. Friend the Member for Hertford and Stortford (Mr. Wells), who is the Chairman of the International Development Committee. I am sad to say that he was not able to serve on this Committee, because it was set against an extremely important meeting of the International Development Committee on a major report on HIV-AIDS.
On Second Reading, my hon. Friend pointed out that we could not turn a blind eye to people who come to Britain for economic reasons. He talked about the moral duty and practical and common-sense reasons to help people. He said that something was badly wrong when tens of thousands of people crossed the length of the continent of Europe, travelling through safe countries, to reach Britain. Trafficking in such people concerns us all.
Part of the Second Reading debate focused on the role of aid in helping to stem the tide of migration. We believe that public information campaigns in developing countries have a key role to play in deterring those who might be tricked into agreeing to be trafficked. That does not fall strictly into the definition of a reduction of poverty, but we must remember that 700,000 women and children are trafficked across borders every year and that the European Union estimates that 500,000 illegal immigrants arrived last year alone, up from an estimated 40,000 as recently as 1993.
Recently, several high-profile incidents involving the trafficking of people have appalled everyone in this country, no matter what their political persuasion. Migrant trafficking and smuggling has become a global business that generates huge profits for traffickers and organised crime syndicates. A recent study by the institute of migration shows that at any time there are an estimated 15 million to 30 million irregular migrants worldwide.
We saw the results of the pernicious trade in July 2000 when the bodies of 58 Chinese immigrants were found inside a tomato truck in Dover. What a waste of lives. As recently as January, a Georgian cargo ship carrying on board an estimated 80 illegal immigrants split in two off the Mediterranean coast of Turkey; about 50 people are believed to have died. In May 2000, a rubber dinghy containing 29 illegal immigrants from north Africa sank close to Spain; six were drowned. I could go on, but it is not my intention to list such disastrous events. I cite them merely to discover the Minister's and the Government's attitude, in the context of the Bill, to the sort of public awareness campaigns that I believe are needed in developing countries to reduce economic migration and trafficking in human misery.
The institute of migration claims that although reliable statistics are kept on apprehensions of unauthorised migrants at borders and on arrests of traffickers, those figures account for only a small fraction of the overall problem. Criminal gangs are often responsible for migrant trafficking, and migrants often travel without full knowledge of the potential risks. Once they have arrived at their destination, trafficked migrants are almost entirely dependent on those criminal gangs and are vulnerable to serious human rights abuses. One way in which we might deter potential victims would be to mount sustained education programmes in their home countries. Many people who pay to be trafficked do so in ignorance of the risks of extortion, human rights abuses and, ultimately, death.

If you love using new and innovative technology and want to apply your passion to a new career, it might be time to consider pursuing postsecondary education at one of the many computer networking schools available in your area. Doing so could help you begin a career in any number of positions that work with computers, including a career as a computer network architect, network systems administrator, or computer support specialist. Computer networking schools can prepare you by introducing you to the complex networks that build the framework for today's highly connected world.
Computer networking specializations
Although many professionals list computer networking skills as one of the main components of their job, the following computer networking specializations are some of the most common:
- Network engineers use their expertise and readily available data to create models of future computer networks.
- Network and computer systems administrators perform a wide range of computer-related tasks for their organization including troubleshooting computer network issues or bugs, maintaining network and computer system security, and determining organizational network needs.
- Computer network support specialists test and analyze existing computer networks to ensure efficiency, perform regular maintenance, and troubleshoot existing local area networks (LANs) and wide area networks (WANs).
Computer networking certifications and degrees
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), both computer network architects and computer network administrators typically begin their careers with a bachelor's degree in a computer-related field such as information technology or computer science. Computer network support specialists may fare well with an associate's degree in a computer-related field, but a bachelor's degree is almost always preferred. In fact, the BLS asserts that with so many advances in network technology, some employers may even prefer a master's degree.
With any of these professions, courses in computer science, information technology, and engineering are always helpful. Due to the ever-evolving nature of this profession, computer networking professionals are usually required to complete additional educational requirements as their careers progress, or participate in continuing education courses. Some technology workers also pursue certificates in specific computer programs that can lead to advanced certifications or credentials. These certifications are likely to improve your job prospects because they not only show competence but also add bulk to any resume.
Computer networking salary and career outlook
Since technology in the workplace is becoming more and more prevalent, job prospects for those in all computer-related fields are expected to be good. Specifically, the BLS projects that employment for all computer occupations will increase 18 percent nationally from 2012 to 2022. Meanwhile, computer network architects are expected to see a 15 percent job growth rate during the same timeframe, network and computer systems administrators will see 12 percent growth, and computer network support specialists will see a 7 percent growth.
According to Projections Central, the following states are expected to see the most growth for each profession from 2012 to 2022:
Computer Network Architects:
- Virginia: 24.5%
- California: 23.6%
- Utah: 23.2%
- New Hampshire: 23%
- Nebraska: 22.9%
Computer Network Support Specialists:
- Louisiana: 25.5%
- Washington: 20.6%
- Wyoming: 20.2%
- Utah: 19.3%
- Florida: 17.5%
Network and Computer Systems Administrators:
- Florida: 25.9%
- Colorado: 25.7%
- Louisiana: 25.1%
- Utah: 25%
- Texas: 21.5%
In addition to bright job prospects, many computer networking careers boast higher than average pay. According to the BLS, the annual mean wage for computer network architects was $97,700 nationally in 2013. Meanwhile, the annual mean wage was $77,910 nationally for computer network and systems administrators and $64,160 for computer network support specialists.
Starting a new career in computers seems like a good idea for anyone who has a knack for technology and a desire to get ahead. Fortunately, computer networking schools can start you on the track to success. All you have to do to get started is make a commitment and forge ahead.

Stoney deGeyter explained in an article on Search Engine Journal that you really need five different pairs of eyes to look over any piece of content: the copywriter, the SEO, someone who can consider its visual eye appeal, someone who cares about usability, and a conversion specialist. Each of these individuals will bring their own perspective to the content, fixing problems and bringing out the best it can be.
Can one person look at a particular piece of content from five different perspectives? Perhaps, but I don't recommend considering all of them at the same time! Let's take them in order so that you'll understand why I say that.
The copywriter makes sure that your content is well-written, not just a plethora of keywords thrown together to get rankings and lure visitors to your website. Yes, the keywords need to be there, but those visitors will want to read your content and learn something from it. The copywriter can tell you if your optimized web pages aren't suffering from serious keyword stuffing, and fix it.
The SEO take a look at the content after the copywriter to ensure that it includes the proper balance of keywords. According to deGeyter, "he or she can review keyword usage, placement, iterations, and phrase variations." The SEO will either work in corrections or send the content back to the copywriter with rewriting instructions. If the SEO sends it back, the copywriter can also check the content at this point for "keyword creep," that oh-so-subtle danger of content that has been overly tweaked for rankings.
You'd think that would be all you need, but no. Have you ever clicked on a link and landed on a web page that just looked so visually repulsive you clicked away as fast as you could? The third pair of eyes looking at your content strives to prevent this from happening with your website. In fact, the idea is to produce the opposite effect: give your visitors a lovely page that they'd enjoy browsing for a while.
Remember, thanks to the search engines, a visitor can enter your website from ANY page, so they all need to look their best. "You can do a lot of things to improve the visual appeal of any page, such as adding images or using text headings, bullets, bolding, and emphasis," deGeyter notes. "All of these can add a visual dynamic that makes drab text look much more appealing and far easier to read."
Websites aren't just for reading, though; users interact with them, even if it's just to click to the next page or navigate to another part of your website. That's why you need someone to look at your content while wearing a pair of usability glasses. "Usability looks at how the content is arranged, where the calls to action are placed and whether or not the wording is action oriented (as opposed to passive)," deGeyter explained. I'd add that usability eyes ought to look at the content and see if it "works" in getting its point across. Is the infographic you hoped to use clunky rather than smooth? Do you make it easy for your visitors to share interesting content? These and other questions fall under the heading of usability.
Finally, we're up to the eyes of the conversion specialist. If you have a PPC/landing-page conversion specialist working with you, deGeyter recommends that they look at your content at this stage. How well will your content work as a landing page to convert your visitors? That's the question this pair of eyes will keep first and foremost. "As before, calls to action are important here, but specific wording and placement of the calls to action can be a factor – as can font styling, image use, link text, and more," deGeyter notes.
I hope by now you can see why I said one person shouldn't look at the same piece of content while trying to keep all five perspectives in mind at the same time! I don't know about you, but when I'm reading an article to make sure it's well-written (the copywriter's perspective), I'm not thinking about how the piece looks as a whole (visual appeal) or details such as font styling (conversion). Think of each review as the opportunity to polish yet another aspect of your content, so it looks like a gem with sparkling facets that will delight the eyes and minds of your visitors. Good luck!

All they needed was a good chunk of money to prove it. And they got it
-- nearly $1 million -- courtesy of the federal stimulus act, which in
its first eight months has showered $1.8 billion on Oregon, according to reports released Friday.
"This is our big opportunity," said Huckans, who works with Loftis at Oregon Health & Science University. The money will be used to hire support staff and buy lab mice and equipment for two years of intense study. "We are finally able to get going."
The two brain scientists represent just a tiny slice of the hundreds of federal contracts, loans and grants that have gone to Oregon companies and projects as part of the massive federal effort to wrench the nation out of its deep economic dive.
Oregon's share of the money is buying safer passage for salmon on the Columbia River, funding a Beaverton program that keeps children out of prostitution and helping start a new business in Sandy that makes moulds for testing concrete. It's repaving hundreds of miles of roads, clearing brush from fire-prone forests and dredging shipping lanes in the state's harbors.
Federal officials said the spending has "created or saved" the equivalent of 640,239 full-time jobs nationwide. Of those, 9,653 belong to Oregonians, according to Friday's report.
The biggest chunk of jobs saved by the spending, both nationally and in Oregon, is for teachers.
"We think it's great news for Oregon's economy," said Becca Uhberlau, spokeswoman for the Oregon Education Association, the statewide teachers union. Dollars spent on teachers not only educate the state's future workforce, but also stimulate spending on local businesses.
The money comes from the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, a $787 billion federal spending bill pushed by President Obama and approved by Congress in February. About two thirds of the money has yet to be spent.
"We're no longer talking about whether we're going to slide into a depression," Vice President Joe Biden said in a morning news conference. "We're arguing and talking about the shape of the recovery."
The job numbers reported Friday are only a "subset" of what the stimulus has accomplished, Biden's chief economist Jared Bernstein said in a telephone briefing with reporters around the country. Counting indirect jobs, such as the waitress who serves a construction crew, the number of new or saved jobs rises to about 1 million, he said.
The numbers also didn't include other parts of the stimulus package, such as tax cuts, higher unemployment checks and $250 bonuses to Social Security recipients. "Those create jobs, too," Bernstein said.
Job figures were gathered from state officials, private contractors and others who reported receiving stimulus funds. They were asked to list how many people were working who wouldn't have jobs without the stimulus.
Among those reporting was Todd Construction, a Tigard firm that bids on big commercial contracts. It won a $1.9 million stimulus-funded project to replace screens in the fish passage section of Bonneville Dam. The new screens are supposed to make it easier for young salmon to get past the big hydropower dam as they migrate to the Pacific Ocean.
Company vice president Ken Dixon said he added six jobs to the overall stimulus calculation -- two carpenters who had been laid off were hired back; two who were in danger of being laid off were kept on; and two supervisors who had run out of jobs were put on the Bonneville project.
The project also helps illustrate one of the problems with the stimulus: Few people know much about it. Dixon said it was a contract bid like any other contract bid, and its status as part of Obama's stimulus program wasn't a factor.
"We didn't know or particularly care at the time, to be honest," Dixon said. "We just needed the work. It came at a good time."
The jobs and spending update -- the first of what will be regular quarterly reports on the stimulus -- came one day after news that the nation's gross domestic product had grown 3.5 percent, possibly heralding the end of what is being called the Great Recession. White House officials were quick to claim credit.
"This was an aggressive step to get money back into the economy," said Dan Pfeiffer, White House deputy communications director. He said the billions in spending "had a big role" in getting the economy back on track.
Others were a bit more skeptical about the long-term impact of the stimulus. Tim Duy, a University of Oregon economist, said there's no question that spending lots of federal money will put some people to work. The problem, he said, is the unemployment numbers are so high that they continue to threaten hopes for a solid recovery.
"The recession is like a pothole," he said, and the stimulus "threw some gravel in the bottom of the pothole. Is this good? Sure. But you're still dropping into a pothole."

Lansing, KS (PRWEB) August 17, 2012
Complete Carpet Care, Inc. has earned a 5-star rating, the highest customer satisfaction rating possible, thereby winning the prestigious CMUS Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award in the Contractors — Fire, Storm & Water Damage Restoration category.
The Talk of the Town Awards, presented by Talk of the Town News, Customer Care News magazine and Celebration Media U.S. (CMUS), honors companies and professionals that provide excellent customer service as reported by their customers through no-cost, user-review websites, blogs, social networks, business rating services, and other honors and accolades. This data is analyzed by a team of researchers who calculate a company's CMUS Power Rating™. Only those that receive a 4-star to 5-star rating receive the CMUS Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award.
Brad Turner, a second-generation carpet business owner, established Complete Carpet Care in 1993 to service the Kansas City metropolitan area's water damage restoration and floor care needs. "We provide a unique service to the community and have been recognized as one of the fastest emergency response teams in the United States," says Turner.
When water damage occurs it is vital to have a professional restoration company help reduce the loss. Complete Carpet Care's professional technicians are ready any time of day, any day of the week to provide emergency service when necessary. The technicians will assess the situation and determine the best course of action, using state-of-the-art drying equipment and industry-approved methods.
While vacuuming your carpet can help remove some dirt and dust, professional carpet cleaning is needed to fully restore the carpet's appearance. Complete Carpet Care uses the "steam cleaning" method, recommended by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and considered the safest and most effective way to clean carpeting.
"At Complete Carpet Care we continue to upgrade our level of commitment to our clients by furthering our education and knowledge of the industry," says Turner. "Our expertise lies in servicing accounts that require a great deal of attention. With a strong emphasis on training and inspection programs, we have been able to satisfy the most difficult customers."
Complete Carpet Care is proud of its achievements, including its recent Talk of the Town Award for providing excellent customer satisfaction. "We pledge to conduct business honestly and maintain the highest standards of workmanship and service," says Turner.

As we posted over social media last night, singer Austin Carlile is leaving Of Mice & Men with immediate effect. The band are not seeking a replacement and will continue as a 4-piece.
Austin suffers from Marfan syndrome, a condition which cannot be cured only "lived with" and it has been getting progressively worse. He's pushed himself as far as his body can take it, and regrettably the time has come where it's no longer possible for him to be a part of an active band.
Following some of his conversations on Twitter, it's apparent that some people just don't understand his condition and it has frustrated him. There's no "manning up" or "get well soon" with Marfan.
Our own Pit Troll reacted when he heard the news:
I'm genuinely, genuinely upset by this news. He was one of the nicest artists I've ever met, even messaged me on Instagram and followed me on Twitter.
Not mentioned by Austin or the band, but we feel it fitting to highlight here, is the Marfan Foundation in the US. If you're a fan and wish to help make a difference for Austin or other sufferers, then this seems to be the charity to support. You can donate via their website.
The band's statement is as follows:
Dear Of Mice & Men Fans,
It's with heavy hearts that we announce Austin's departure from the band for reasons pertaining to his health. As many of you are aware, Austin suffers from a rare connective tissue disorder called Marfan syndrome & has been struggling with the physical demands of touring since the band began.
After his most recent series of surgeries at Stanford University Hospital, following the cancellation of our European headlining tour, his team of doctors informed him of the damage that performing, & more specifically his aggressive vocals, have been causing his body. They warned that if he were to continue on doing so, it would cause permanent & irrevocable damage to his spine & nervous system.
Following the advice from his team of specialists, Austin decided it best that he step away from the band & change his lifestyle to better his health. Though we're heartbroken that he can no longer continue, his health has always been of utmost importance to us & we support him now in this decision & are proud of his perseverance over the years.
We've had an amazing & unforgettable past few years making music & touring the world together & the 4 of us look forward to sharing the next chapter of the band's story with you. All previously announced shows will proceed as planned & we thank you for your continued love & support. We couldn't do this without all of you! See you real soon.
-Aaron, Alan, Phil & Valentino
Austin's initial statement was as an image on Twitter:
My heart is heavy… I never thought I would be writing this… Wanted to leave this announcement in the mess that is 2016… pic.twitter.com/T02QIt2hUp
— Austin Carlile (@austincarlile) December 30, 2016
All of us here at Moshville Times wish Austin the best for the future. He's already demonstrated courage and strength beyond belief in recent months and years, and hopefully can now concentrate on his own comfort.

We're big believers in working asynchronously at Socialize. WSJ.com reports that on average executives spend about 18 hours in meetings per week. Thats a lot of time spent talking about work instead of doing actual work. We believe that meetings can be an inefficient way to collaborate if you don't come prepared. We've even made it part of our guiding principles (see #11 of our manifesto). This helps us keep mental focus to get things done without constant interruptions of meetings. This too is one of our principles (see #7). Many other companies have already adopted this mentality, including 37Signals and Github. This is because meetings break up the day causing employees to context switch so many times that it doesn't give you enough time to be fully productive with any one task. They're also a terrible way to communicate half-baked ideas since it inevitably leads into off-topic debates with unfounded assumptions.
Here is the summery of our process:
- Use BC to discuss topics or ideas
- If that discusion leads to a need for a meeting or is ready to go from idea to project – create a Google Doc
- Put all your ideas in doc, don't worry about organization and formatting (that can often happen naturally or done as a cleanup item before the meeting)
- From that doc create an agenda to discuss the points within the doc
- If there is still a need for a meeting, create one, use the agenda to run the meeting and the notes in the doc to reference. This converts a open meeting around ideas taking hours and turns it into a focused meeting in minutes around the doc/agenda.
- The meeting should be around remaining uncertainty revealed in the doc and to additional action items. Always leave with action items and named owners.
If a meeting is ultimately required, the result is a more focused meeting, with notes already prepared when you walk in. Also the doc becomes a link you can share with others to provide more transparency about the plan. This ultimately saves time when explaining the idea and plan to others like upper management. Below is a more in-depth review at how we work asynchronously.
How We Work Asynchronously
What enables us to work asynchronously are the availability of tools. Below are some of the tools that allow us to work the way we do.
Google Docs
Google's online docs allows to create more detailed plans and ideas while allow other people to collaborate. Many times we'll start by creating an outline using headings and create a table of contents. This allows others to fill in the rest of the outline when they find the time to focus on building the document.
As you're working through the document, Google Docs shows you other participants that are actively editing the same document in real-time. This is a little odd at first since entire blocks of text can be cut-copied into other parts of the document as you're typing. But after awhile it becomes second nature and most of the time you stay out of each other's way. Google Doc also gives each participant is given a different color so you can see who is typing.
If you're working asynchronously you can notify other participants through e-mail. You can do so by using the twitter like '@' notation to grab their attention. This helps call out areas which either need additional content or clarification.
Basecamp (BC) is our project management tool of choice. BC allows us to have quick, threaded discussions that may not be suitable for Google Docs. Our goal is to keep conversations out of e-mail and into a system that can be referenced by other people should the same questions/thoughts arise. It's much easier to pass a link than to have to re-answer the same question a few times.
BC enables us to work from anywhere, not just in the office We trust that our employees will place themselves in the environment that makes them most productive. This is because we focus on results and not just hours in the office. Using BC allows us to work remotely because we've traded meetings for working asynchronously. Have a question for me? Use Basecamp! Want to assign me a task? Use Basecamp! Have a new idea for a feature? Use Basecamp!
Git is the new repo of choice but what makes git great is Github.com and all it's developer tools. Git allows me to follow repos of interest and get notified as commits happen. I can review the commit and leave comments around the code. But the biggest feature that Github created that allows us to work asynchronously is the "pull request".
They've turned a time-consuming code-review into an asynchronous process. A pull request allows developers to request that a set of changes on a branch be merged back into the master branch. I'll be notified of the request and get to review the changes when I have time to focus on reviewing the code. Github shows me all the changes, color coded, so I can quickly see what has been removed or added. I can then leave the developer questions about blocks of code. We'll go back and forth until we feel the changes are good enough to merge back into master.
If all other means won't work and we must have a synchronous conversation then we'll use IM to avoid meetings. It might still be a distraction but not to the degree of an entire meeting. We use Google Talk since it comes free as part of Google Apps. It makes conversations concise because people don't want to go on long winded, off-topic rants on a keyboard. This tool also enables us to work remotely. When anybody on our team works remotely we ask them to stay on IM to discuss anything that can't wait such as operational issues. Some of use Adium for Mac and others just use the chat client that is built-in to Gmail.
So you have an urging desire to have a meeting?
We're not sure why people hate meetings but love to schedule them. But if someone insists on having a meeting we follow these guidelines (manifesto #11):
- Arrive at meetings with clearly communicated objectives and leave with action items
- Always know what you want, and what you don't want to get out of the meeting. If you don't know both beforehand there is no reason to meet
- Agree on the length of the meeting before it begins
- Create an agenda, break up the meeting into 15-30 minute blocks and cross off each section as time elapses
- Every idea needs an owner to become an action item.
- Don't use "we" when taking an action item, it's a cop-out. We = you or me. Instead of "we need to do that" say "I'll take care of that by Friday".
- End the meeting by capturing action items and dates in writing in tools like Google Docs or Basecamp.
By using the tools and processes described in this post. By the time you have a meeting it's more about finalizing plans and not starting from ambiguous ideas. Let us know what you think in the comments below!
Q: But I love collaboration and free thinking meetings, won't this kill that?
A: Not at all. I love barnstorms but even they can be defined/scoped before hand with a goal in mind.
Every meeting has an objective whether you realize it or not. Will you discuss how cool blue jays are, or is this about building better apps. List the goals of the brainstorm before you walk in, get it in the doc and ask everyone to prep the doc with ideas they already have. You can always think of new things at the meeting, just add them to the doc and make sure you don't run over time.
Often times, if we realize an idea has no objective or goals the person with the idea simply srarta a thread on BC. If no one is interested in responding it is either a non-starter, or you have to flesh it out a bit more on your own to get buy in. Every individual is a startup and every employee that wants to get involved in your idea is sort of an investor or partner. If your idea is great (or even kind of good) someone will join you in fleshing it out. As it matures and goals and benefits develop it will naturally bring on more time from others to get it done, and the docs and BC threads help get it there, and keep a record of how you got there, for all to catch up on when the time comes.
Comment: I don't have time to use a doc or thread and organize everything first. It is quicker to just meet.
It may be quicker for YOU, but that offloading of organization and time is placed upon everyone else at the meeting who ALSO doesn't have time to do extra work. If your idea, project, or conversation has value then it is worth taking the time to get it organized and focused. If it IS NOT worth writing down and organizing then I hate to break it to you but that means it isn't worth it to anybody else to sit down in a meeting.
Comment: I don't need a meeting I will just use IM.
IM is great -don't get me wrong. But it has a risk. I was just talking to someone now on IM about things to do in the future and "someone just walked in sorry". In the old way data is lost, and momentum is killed. In the new way above it really doesn't matter at all – add to the thread or doc when you get the time and we will continue to flesh it out there. Done and done .

At a recent family gathering, my sister asked my brother, "Did you win that grill in a contest?" as she pointed to a nice gas grill.
"No," he said, "I picked it up off a curb in our neighborhood."
We all laughed. My brother has made a second career of saving money by winning contests, using coupons, accepting credit card special offers, finding curbside treasures, and more.
One of his first big wins was a trip for two to the Redskins Super Bowl in New Orleans in 1987. He had bought multiple scratch-off cards. First, he won a Redskins hat, then a Redskins jersey, and then he received a registered letter for the tickets. He took Dad as his guest as a belated Christmas present.
Later, he began to enter multiple sweepstakes multiple times by sending in 3x5 cards. The next big prize he won was a cruise to the Bahamas for four nights and three days for two for Mom, fulfilling one of her greatest wishes.
But, his best prize was winning a county housing lottery where he got the opportunity to buy his beautiful brick townhouse.
My brother has a full-time job, an hour commute and an extended family. From what I can tell, he enters sweepstakes he sees while out doing errands, on his cell phone during his bus commute from ads in magazines and newspapers, or online while watching television or during family gatherings.
I admire how he has incorporated saving money into his everyday thinking. Every conversation with him generally includes a tip on how to save money. Recently, he suggested I open a account with an online bank because their interest rates were better than most. Visit him at home and he will offer you a 2 for 1 restaurant coupon or something similar.
He briefly stopped entering sweepstakes until he saw an instant win sweeps online for a $100 Visa card in 2002. He won. He thought of giving the card to his wife until he saw a Roomba, a flat vacuum robot, on Amazon for $125. He thought this would be a great gift to help his wife clean the dog hair from under the sofa. So, with a $25 first time buyer's credit and free shipping, he got the Roomba for free.
At a family New Year's eve gathering in 2007, he entered multiple online sweepstakes that were closing and won a trip to Disney World for his family.
Some of his other wins have included multiple liters of soda for everyone in the family, movie tickets, hats, shirts, and more.
My brother is a member of the $10,000 club at Sweepstakes.com. His philosophy for entering sweepstakes is to enter contests where the prize would change his life or to enter contests that have little interest.
He warns that there are dangers in entering online sweepstakes. Many sweepstakes sites are shams and others flood your mailbox with junk mail. He set up a separate email account for his sweepstakes entries.
Another way my brother wins prizes is to accept invitations to seminars. In addition to a free lunch, he has won an iPod and an iPad.
He uses multiple credit cards to get discounts and air travel miles. He, also, takes advantage of special credit card offers and prizes for opening new bank accounts.
Some of his other curbside finds include a large glass tabletop and a toilet for parts. He also likes to visit big box stores and food courts at lunchtime to get free samples.
He uses Freecycle.org, an international online service with local chapters, where posters list items they want to giveaway or items they want. One of his favorite finds was a collection of Dora the Explorer videos for his granddaughter.
And his dog, came from a local animal shelter.
On a recent visit to my brother's, his daughter, and I went to the grocery store to pick up a few items for dinner. As we stood in line, I realized we had not brought our own bags and would be charged $.05 for each bag. Here comes my brother with a handful of plastic bags that he gives us as we reach the cashier. When we exited the store, I asked him where he got the bags; he had raided the plastic recycling bin.

Senate approves Oregon immigrant tuition bill
By JONATHAN J. COOPER
Of the Associated Press
SALEM — The Oregon Senate voted Thursday to allow some young illegal immigrants to pay resident college tuition if they were brought to the United States as children, sending the measure to Gov. John Kitzhaber who has promised to sign it.
The Senate's approval in a 19-11 vote comes 10 years after the measure was first proposed. Immigrant-rights advocates erupted in cheers the moment the bill passed, their applause echoing through the Capitol as they congratulated each other, hugged lawmakers and posed for photos.
"I can't believe it finally happened," said Karla Castaneda, a junior at Parkrose High School in Portland whose family immigrated illegally when she was 4. "Hope is with me. I know I will be able to go to college."
Critics said the state shouldn't be subsidizing a college education for people who violated the law and won't be able to work in the United States.
"Some of these folks who believe in the Constitution and believe in the rule of law need to be represented today," said Sen. Tim Knopp, a Bend Republican who voted against the measure.
At least 14 other states allow illegal immigrants to pay in-state college tuition. Colorado's Legislature approved a similar bill this month, and Gov. John Hickenlooper has said he'll sign it.
Illegal immigrants in Oregon pay college tuition at the rate charged to nonresident students, which is about $20,000 more than the cost for Oregon residents.
Starting next school year, the measure would allow students to qualify for in-state tuition if they've attended an Oregon high school for at least three years and lived in the United States for at least five. They'd also have to sign an affidavit swearing they'll apply to legalize their immigration status as soon as they are eligible.
Illegal immigrants can't legally work in the United States, but proponents say President Barack Obama's push for a federal immigration overhaul could create a pathway to citizenship for many. They say children have no control over the decision to immigrate without legal documents.
"It is just plain wrong to hold hostage the future of kids and young adults because of choices their parents have made," said Sen. Chris Edwards, D-Eugene.
The nonpartisan Legislative Fiscal Office estimated that the bill would increase the state's revenue by $335,000 over the next two years and by an additional $1.6 million between 2015 and 2017. The Oregon University System estimated that 38 illegal immigrant students would take advantage of the resident tuition rates during the next two years and 80 more students would take part in the two years after that.
Sen. Doug Whitsett, R-Klamath Falls, said he was skeptical of the numbers and expected many more illegal immigrants to enroll.
"Many of the people that we represent have a lot of angst about this bill," Whitsett said. "Many are angry about what they perceive to be the inequity represented by the concept of this bill."
Illegal immigrants would not be eligible for state or federal financial aid, and they'd be subject to the same university entrance requirements as other applicants.
"They're not asking for guarantees. They're not asking for commitments. They simply want a chance," said Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem, who first proposed the measure in 2003.

Mad Men star Alison Brie has formed a new covers group with two girlfriends.
The actress and her pals tour with New York bluegrass band Jones Street Station as The Girls.
Calling her musical career "a new adventure", Brie tells funnyman Jon Stewart, "It's classic rock and some country. We do a little Hall & Oates, a little Springsteen, some Dolly Parton..."
But fans of her acting need never worry that Brie will become a full-time musician.
She adds, "My first love is acting... We don't have the ability to write our own songs, which I think is a flaw if you're trying to be a real band... But my father is a great musician and he writes songs, so I've been around it my whole life.
"There was a brief period where I learned to play some songs on the ukelele. I still have the ukelele but... I'm not good at tuning it."

Changing lives or just shoveling snow?
Gary Tetz
Like any good long-term care provider, I should know that to breathe a sigh of relief after weathering a crisis is to challenge the gods. Remember Brad, the nursing home administrator who left the deposition shouting, "Hurray, the worst is over!"? Of course you don't. No skilled administrator would ever tempt fate by even thinking something so cosmically naïve.
But there I was last week, doing exactly the same thing — relaxing way too soon. I wandered about town in the sunshine, making ill-advised public statements about how February is the harbinger of spring, and how once January is past, the worst is over. Then about five smug seconds later, Zeus turned the thermostat down near absolute zero and opened heaven's floodgates.
As Bing Crosby would have said to Danny Kaye if "White Christmas" had been set in an idyllic southeast Washington wine community, "Walla Walla should be beautiful this time of year. All that snow." But it isn't. Not when you have to pick it up and move it off the driveway, all of it, by hand, one undersized shovel full at a time, for multiple days. I recognize that our deluge doesn't rise to Winter Storm (insert name) proportions, but still. For an aging, chubby guy in a state of deferred maintenance, it's become an aerobic and existential ordeal.
Which leads to the question, why exactly do I bother? The act of snow removal is entirely futile, at least in this temperate clime, because it never stays for long. But still I'm out there with the first flake, obsessively pushing and piling. If snowflakes were quinoa and shoveling was harvest, this might make some sense. But with an imminent melt, I'm like poor, wounded Santiago in The Old Man and the Sea, pointlessly towing the skeleton of his prized marlin to shore long after the sharks have torn away the flesh.
We all know folks who see their lives and jobs that way, as exercises in futility. They go through the motions, finding no lasting value or reward in their work. They stop caring and become cynical, and within long-term care, that cynicism has been singled out as the primary villain leading to administrator turnover. Because when you fail to see people as people, but rather as snow-like objects to be moved, piled and then left to melt into oblivion, it can take a toll on the quality of your work.
The successful administrators I know, the ones who last, just don't think that way. They're stressed, sure. Tired, yes. Held to daunting standards with insufficient resources, naturally. But they find joy, meaning and reward in the daily acts and interactions of care, from momentous to trivial, and they inspire others to embrace the same perspective. Every day, year after year, they're fueled by the core belief that they're changing lives, not just shoveling snow. And they're right.
Things I Think is written by Gary Tetz, who cobbles these pieces together from his secret lair somewhere near the scenic, sometimes snow-covered hamlet of Walla Walla, WA. Since his debut with SNALF.com at the end of a previous century, he has continued to amuse, inform and sometimes befuddle long-term care readers worldwide.

Featured in this tasty bundle are the first 3 chapters in the point and click adventure from Cockroach, The Dream Machine, available for Windows on Steam, Desura and DRM-free. Play as Victor and Alicia, who have just moved into a new apartment during a major transition in their life (they have a baby on the way) only to find that the quiet unassuming apartment may have more to it than meets the eye. Set in both reality and an unforgettable dream-world, one of the most distinctive features of the game is that all of the cast and sets are hand-made from clay and cardboard. This labor of love only adds to the other special gameplay elements in this point and click adventure: interesting dialogue, item collection, and puzzles, along with atmospheric music and a compelling story-line.
Also included is Layton-esque puzzle adventure sequel from Telltale Games, Puzzle Agent 2, available for Windows and Mac on Steam, Desura and DRM-free (you may remember that Puzzle Agent 1 was featured in our July Jubilee Bundle!). Play FBI puzzle agent Nelson Tethers as he tries to uncover what's really going on with the mysterious disappearances in the tiny town of Scoggins, Minnesota, after the FBI has closed the case. Offering unique puzzle mechanics, Puzzle Agent 2 uncovers additional mysteries via new plot additions such as haunting visions of astronauts in the woods while wrapping up unresolved mysteries from Puzzle Agent 1. Features of the game include excellent voice acting, unique art from Graham Annable and puzzles abound. Don't forget your chewing gum!
The next game in this bundle is city builder Children of the Nile: Enhanced Edition from Tilted Mill, available for Windows on Steam, Desura and DRM-free. It's built on a different premise than most city builders in that the game is an accurate simulation of life in ancient Egypt and centers on the citizens instead of the buildings. Play as the Pharaoh and build up prestige over thousands of years by exploring and building monuments using surplus bread (currency) which you receive in the form of taxes. The more your citizens thrive, the more bread you'll receive, which enables you to build out your empire and achieve immortality.
The next dish in this bundle is 11 Bit Studios' unique post-apocalyptic game Anomaly: Warzone Earth, available for Windows, Mac and Linux on Steam, Desura and DRM-free. The title offers a unique twist on tower defense: rather than building towers to force units through a path, players create a path for units to destroy towers. While having no direct control over the convoy, gamers use power-ups, careful resource management, ability management and route planning to save the world from an extraterrestrial invasion. Play the commander of the 14th platoon of a futuristic British army whose sole purpose is to keep the earth safe from extraterrestrials by finding and destroying alien structures in Tokyo and Baghdad.
The last dish to save room for in the Stuffing Bundle is retro-inspired platform adventure from ScaryPotato, Adventure Apes and the Mayan Mystery, available for Windows on Desura and DRM-free. Play as Mitch as he quests through the jungle to stop Horatio Hawk from escaping the Mayan temple with a magical artifact. This game flawlessly executes on platform exploration, offering challenging bosses, fun graphics and hours of gameplay.
Those who pay $8 USD or their currency equivalent during the Stuffing Bundle will get a chiptune album with soothing synthesizer melodies, jazz fusion and progressive rock sensibilities Tree of Knowledge from yogurtbox, a $10 value on its own. This unique album, available as part of an Indie Royale partnership with seminal chiptune label Ubiktune , was developed as an homage to distinctly retro Japanese PC-98 game soundtracks.
As with all Indie Royale releases, more buyers means a higher price, unless generous buyers pay more than the minimum cost and drop the price for everyone else. Don't miss out! Find more information on the Stuffing Bundle, including real-time statistics and its current price, visit the official website and the Indie Royale Facebook and Twitter pages.
Don't forget to tune into Streamlicious, a 100-hour indie game stream for charity on November 23. Viewers will be able to watch gameplay for all of the games included in this bundle and become eligible to win one of 10 donated Indie Royale Stuffing Bundle keys!

I feel like an idiot, walking into hardware store after hardware store and asking for a simple pulley wheel, only to discover the pulleys are a) too small and b) fused so as to make it impossible to remove wheel from casing. I need pulley wheels to build a homemade chakrha – an Indian spinning wheel run by hand and favored by Gandhi. There are various online plans for building such a wheel, and mine come from a 1996 Spin Off magazine article, which is now available for free online.
I'll try to take pictures as I go, to document the progress of my little wheel!

Beigbeder says that he thought of Huis clos and Voyage au bout de la nuit, but those titles had already been taken: he'd of course raised the bar too high, and of course he was young. The novel only takes place in twelve hours, kind of Ulysses thinking: yes, of course. And he was re-published in a poche edition, which he should have refused, like the Groucho Marx example of refusal, etc. Of course.
And what banality, as he says. The best thing I found about the book was the fictional Marc Marronnier being invited by his acquaintance DJ Joss Dumoulin to the new and highly prestigious club Les Chiottes (lit. 'The Shithouse'). Nice name.
Somehow this name seems quite fitting for a book filled with fashion freaks, cokeheads, sad types, and train spotters. Trainspotters? Yes, this novel is filled with lists: of things forgotten, invited VIPs, a DJ's playlist, etc. In a word, this is a mess.

Rising through the ranks, BAYONNE made her stakes debut a winning one, as the 4-year-old filly by DANCE WITH RAVENS came from off the pace to run down the leaders and capture the $70,000 Pink Ribbon Stakes for fillies and mares at Charles Town on Sept. 22.
It was the third straight win for BAYONNE since she returned from a two-month layoff in mid-July. Trained by Jeffrey Cramer for Cramer Racing, BAYONNE completed seven furlongs in 1:25.40 in winning for the seventh time in 17 starts. The former claimer has been wonderfully consistent throughout her career, hitting the board seven additional times and has been worse than fourth only once in the past two years.
Bred in Maryland by Dark Hollow Farm and Herringswell Stables, BAYONNE is a half-sister to two stakes winners – NOT FOR LOVE's son EIGHTTOFASTTOCATCH, and TWO PUNCH's son STORM PUNCH.
DANCE WITH RAVENS is Maryland's second-leading sire and sixth-ranked in the Mid-Atlantic region, with progeny earnings fast approaching $3 million in 2012. From his first four crops to race, he is the sire of seven stakes winners – six this year! And his incredibly hard-knocking runners include Charmingmegan, winner of four straight and six of 12 for the year.

Chiba Lotte Marines: Marines to move Spring camp out of Ishigakijima?
by Gen on Feb.22, 2010 @ 1:37 pm, under NPB, Spring Camp
...In four intra-squad games, Tadahito Iguchi went 6-for-15 and drove in 6 runs. 5 over those 6 hits were hit between center and right field. Iguchi had been working on taking the ball to the opposite field during Spring camp. To that end, he often stayed back after practice to take an extra hour of BP in order to work on going the other way.
...Club president Ryuzo Setoyama is apparently thinking about moving Spring camp out of Ishigakijima. Seems there are a number of things he isn't happy about, including a new stadium that was supposed to open in December but still isn't ready. Setoyama submitted a proposal to Ishigaki City on Monday outlining what it would take to keep the team in Ishigakishima. He plans on waiting until March 10th for Ishigaki City's response.
...20 pitchers combined for 31,424 pitches. The top 5 hurlers:
Yuta Ohmine - 2,366
Takumi Nasuno - 2,215
Yasutaka Hattori - 2,188
Tomohisa Ohtani - 2,181
Yuta Kimura - 2,163

Chocolate Diamond Earrings
Thursday 19 December, 2013
At first I was skeptical about ordering from the website (because I do not like making online purchases), but I took a chance and I must say I am 100% satisfied with my purchase. I ordered chocolate diamond earrings for someone special and I am very pleased with them. Thank you!
