Turn chaos into calm (and clicks).
The digital era can be characterized by instant gratification and shrinking attention spans. Today's viral sensation becomes yesterday's news overnight. The number of channels and customer touchpoints is growing exponentially, and marketing teams are struggling to produce a greater volume and variety of content to keep pace with the constant churn.
One thing's for sure: creative assets – the photography, artwork, videos, logos and collateral that are key to connecting your customer to your brand – are in higher demand than ever. And email, network drives and cloud storage simply weren't built to handle the volume of content and processes involved with creating, approving and distributing all those assets.
Chaos creates opportunity, however, and marketing and creative teams that want to seize it need to find a way to eliminate the communication and technology gaps slowing them down.

"Convenience" is a tired selling point for mobile wallets, but it's one I'm finally starting to agree with.
The argument goes that tapping a contactless card or payment-capable phone against a special reader is so much easier and faster than swiping a card that a consumer would be eager to change their habits.
In reality, most people, of course, don't consider plastic cards all that time-consuming. Checks and cash may take a little more time than cards, but not enough to make most people demand some kind of relief.
My mind is being changed by two recent experiences — one at a grocery store, the other at an Apple store — as well as last week's test launch of the Isis mobile wallet.
When the telco venture Isis began its consumer tests last week in Salt Lake City and Austin, Texas, it ran an ad on local television stations and YouTube features the"convenience" argument. The ad showed how using Isis to pay for purchasesand manage coupons could prevent a chaotic series of events that led to massive property damage and even a small fire.
At the grocery store last week, my own experience was not too far off.
I was in line behind a woman paying with a check. This is not the nightmare it used to be — the store can fill out the check for the customer to speed things along — but it sparked a series of failures that reminded me very much of the Isis commercial.
First, the cashier accidentally printed the transaction details on the wrong side of the check, forcing the customer to fill the check out by hand. Second, the customer asked for $20 cash back, and for some reason, at just 7:30 a.m. the cashier's till had only two $50 bills in it. This held up the line until someone stopped by to make change.
Compare that to the process I experienced in returning an unopened keyboard at an Apple store. I handed the keyboard to a clerk, who then scanned a bar code on my receipt using a mobile device.
That was it.
I didn't have to show him my credit card or my ID. I didn't have to sign anything or fill out any forms. I didn't even get a printed receipt. It was so fast and seamless that for a while I wondered if a return had even taken place.
What made the Apple example work was the merchant's complete buy-in to this new payment scheme. As some early Isis users are learning, many merchants listed in its mobile-wallet app aren't active participants in the trial. This is causing some confusion for consumers, particularly if any questions arise during the payment process.
Companies such as Square Inc. and eBay Inc.'s PayPal are promoting software-based wallets that similarly streamline the transaction by allowing users to begin the payment process by tapping an icon when they enter the store, rather than waiting until they get in front of a cashier.
A test last month of PayPal's system didn't produce a huge number of payments, but PayPal's partner ShopKeep POS said the few consumers who used it were satisfied enough with the experience to try it multiple times.
That's a slow but promising start, and although PayPal has certainly failed in the past at introducing new payment systems, it demonstrates that the "convenience" argument can be very compelling if the merchant is fully supportive of it.

Are you using After Effects version 11.0.0? 11.0.1? 11.0.2? or 11.0.3?
What OS are you using?
Have you used this feature before?
Does it work in a new project, in a blank comp, with nothing but a null object?
When you say it "cannot track my object", what do you mean? Are you doing motion tracking or are you using motion sketch?

The album is violinist Pine's original concept, inspired by the birth of her first child in September 2011. She could find no existing collection of classical violin lullaby scores and or any compilation recordings. So, she set about gathering sheet music from libraries around the world, amassing a collection of 150 lullaby scores. She selected 25 of the best to include on Violin Lullabies.

Songs of Smaller Creatures and Other American Choral Works
Conducted by Christopher Bell, Chicago's Grant Park Chorus is "as fine a symphony chorus as any to be found anywhere in the nation" (Chicago Tribune). Celebrating its 50th season, the chorus makes its a cappella CD debut with an all-American program of eight imaginative, moving, and sometimes whimsical works written between 1975 and 2005, including four world premieres.
Notable Women: Trios by Today's Female Composers
This imaginative program, devised by the dynamic Lincoln Trio, features works by six celebrated contemporary American female composers. Four of the pieces are world-premiere recordings: Lera Auerbach's Trio, Stacy Garrop's Seven, Laura Elise Schwendinger's C'è la Luna Questa Sera?, and Joan Tower's Trio Cavany.

Billy Collins, former U.S. poet laureate, has been hailed as the first American poet since Robert Frost to garner great critical acclaim and broad popular appeal in equal measure.

One of music's brightest young stars, "prodigiously talented" (The New York Times) violinist Jennifer Koh presents a hand-picked program of inventive and attractive American works for violin and piano, spanning the 20th and 21st centuries.
Chicago's acclaimed Music in the Loft series showcases chamber music's stars of tomorrow. Composers in the Loft presents five diverse works - four in world premiere recordings - by the series' former composers-in-residence: Ricardo Lorenz's Afro-Cuban flavored Bachangó for solo piano; Carter Pann's eclectic Differences for cello and piano; Pierre Jalbert's in turns rhythmically driven and mysterious Trio for violin, cello, and piano; Stacy Garrop's String Quartet No. 2: Demons and Angels, tracing a true-life descent into madness and murder; and Vivian Fung's Miniatures for clarinet and string quartet, inspired by the music of China's Uighur people.

Declarations: Music Between the Wars
On its new CD, Declarations, the Pacifica Quartet mines the artistic ferment of the interwar years with a program of gems from the 1920s and early 30s.
My idea for this disc is to share some of the best and most varied current literature for voice and piano. The composers represented here include well-recognized and less familiar names, all of whom are living. They take their inspiration from poems and prose both ancient and modern, exotic and mundane. They rework time-honored musical forms and develop new ones. Their compositional methods range from simple to virtuosic. - Patrice Michaels

A man accused of stalking R&B star Ashanti launched into a rant in a New York courtroom on Tuesday (11Mar14), demanding the replacement of the judge overseeing the case.
Devar Hurd is facing a string of harassment and stalking charges amid allegations he bombarded the singer with lewd messages on Twitter.com after completing a two-year prison sentence in 2012 for sending explicit texts to Ashanti's mother, Tina Douglas.
The 35 year old, who pleaded not guilty to the claims last year (13), returned to Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday with a new defense lawyer, Glenn Hardy, but he grew angry as Justice Charles Solomon began asking questions about new evidence, which reportedly included incriminating texts and tweets.
Losing his temper, Hurd shouted at the judge, "You know I didn't do nothin' (sic). Why are you not honouring the simple fact of what's going on? Isn't that part of your job?"
He then declared, "I want to switch judges", before adding, "I feel like there's a conflict of interest. You're talking about text messages. There are no text messages. You're talking about emails. There are no emails."
Justice Solomon became visibly annoyed by Hurd's outbursts, but refused to argue with the defendant and instead ended the hearing by asking police officers to escort him out of the room, stating, "OK, Sergeant. He's finished."
A new court date has been set for 15 April (14), according to the New York Daily News.

BEIJING, Feb. 17 (Xinhuanet) -- U.S. researchers have accidentally discovered a chemical that caused mice to regrow hair by blocking a stress-related hormone.
This could have the potential to be a breakthrough therapy for human baldness, according to a new study Thursday on the online journal PLoS One.
|U.S. researchers have accidentally discovered a
chemical that caused mice to regrow hair by blocking
a stress-related hormone.
Researchers from University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) were studying gut function in genetically engineered mutant mice that suffered alopecia -- hair loss -- because of an increase in corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), a compound that seems to play a role in how the body responds to stress.
When they injected astressin-B -- a chemical compound that blocks CRF -- once daily for five days, the mice re-grew hair. It was an effect that held up for four months.
"This was totally unexpected," said co-author Million Mulugeta of the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. "We do not work on hair; we did not set out to study hair growth."
"Our findings show that a short-duration treatment with this compound causes an astounding long-term hair regrowth in chronically stressed mutant mice," said Mulugeta
Researchers suggest that temporarily blocking CRF receptors could be "a breakthrough therapy for alopecia," and might also hold potential for male pattern baldness and hair loss due to chemotherapy.
Co-author Yvette Tache, a professor of medicine at UCLA, said it could take up to five years to start a clinical trial in humans.
"This research could be beneficial in a lot of diseases which are stress-related in their manifestations or exacerbation of symptoms," she said.

Maryland Eliminates Syracuse, 4-1
May 22, 2010
Courtesy of Maryland Athletics
COLLEGE PARK, Md. - The Maryland softball team survived one elimination game, now it will need to repeat that performance. The Terrapins advanced in the NCAA Regionals with a 4-1 victory over Syracuse Saturday afternoon.
The Terps (34-23) will face Fordham (48-11) at 4:30 p.m. Saturday. The winner of that contest will play Oklahoma at noon Sunday with a trip to the NCAA Super Regionals on the line. The Sooners advance with one victory. The Terps or Rams would need to defeat OU twice on Sunday.
The Terps took a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning against the Orange. Freshman Sara Acosta and senior Alex Schultz each drew walks from Syracuse's Brittany Gardner with two outs. Junior Kerry Hickey loaded the bases with a single through the left side. Junior Marisha Branson drove in Acosta and Schultz with a single to right. Hickey scored on a throwing error by Orange shortstop Morgan Nandin.
Sophomore Kendra Knight started in the circle for the Terrapins and earned the win by going 3 2/3 innings and allowing one run.
Syracuse cut the lead to 3-1 in the bottom of the fourth. Rachel Helman doubled to left centerfield and moved to third on Lisaira Daniels' single. Daniels stole second, then Lacey Kohl walked to load the bases with two outs. Knight caught Stephanie Watts looking for the final out of the inning.
Maryland scored again in the top of the sixth inning. Hickey got her second hit of the day with a single to left with two outs. Junior Marybeth Herrick came on to pinch run. Branson hit her second single to advance Hickey, and then senior Nadine Blackie looped one into right to push Branson to third and score Hickey.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- "There were four boys that started it all, and you're going to get to see the story that started Rock and Roll."
And that story unfolded Wednesday on the streets of Memphis.
Production crew and cast members, dressed in their vintage best, packed into areas like the historic Arcade restaurant to film the CMT show "Million Dollar Quartet."
The executive producer for the show, Leslie Greif, said although Memphis faced competition to bring the show here, he couldn't imagine telling this Bluff City story anywhere else.
"They wanted us in Shreveport, and I was saying, 'No, man! We've got to be in Memphis! You can't not be in Memphis!' And here we are. We're in Memphis, and I'm proud of it."
But filming, like anything else, is a business so, of course, money played a big part.
Money in the form of $4 million in tax incentives.
Greif said the show should bring millions back into the city, but wouldn't say how many millions or specifically how.
Linn Sitler with the Memphis and Shelby County Film Commission said incentives could springboard Memphis back into the film boom of the 90's.
"These are our stories, whether you're talking about the "Blind Side" or "Million Dollar Quartet," and it's so important to have them here."
Sitler said the show being here also means more film and production jobs and, depending on its success, tourism in the form of fans.
And although streets were closed off for filming, businesses near the sets stayed open and attracted people hoping to get a glimpse of Hollywood right here in Memphis.
"The tourism value is incredible. That's why the Memphis Convention and Visitor's Bureau is actually one of the incentivisors of 'Million Dollar Quartet.'"

Girls Tennis Doubles Team of the Year Olivia Luchini and Raquel Gonzales
School: Memorial
Grade: Juniors
Qualifications: Meshed as first-time partners this season, capturing the County/Metro Athletic Conference title and winning two matches at the North Area qualifier to earn the No. 2 seed for the Central Section individual tournament before pushing top-seeded Cara Kemp and Emily Horrigan of Stockdale in a 6-4, 6-4 loss in the final. Luchini, the CMAC Player of the Year for the second straight season and a three-time section individual tournament qualifier, was 25-2 in doubles and 13-5 in singles overall. Gonzales was 20-2 in doubles and 15-6 overall in singles.
Joining forces: Luchini, a returning All-Bee selection, and Gonzales, a first-year Memorial student who previously had been home schooled, have known each other for years through the Northern California junior tennis circuit. But they played together for the first time in the Panthers' season opener against Buchanan's Sienna Swain and Mary Kate Shellworth. Luchini and Gonzales rolled to an 8-1 win. "There was a buzz after that match that this could be a great team, and it sure was," Panthers coach Karen Luchini said. Luchini and Gonzales would play doubles together 21 times, losing twice. The first was a 7-5, 6-4 loss to defending section doubles runner-ups Chelsey Ruiz and Zoe Vargas of Bullard, a team they would later beat 6-3, 6-1 for the CMAC title.
Similar games: Panthers coach Karen Luchini describes both her daughter Olivia and Gonzales as power players with big serves. Olivia has good hands at the net and a slice backhand that plays well in high school tennis. Gonzales hits with great top spin and excels in using angles. "Their doubles style complements each other greatly," Karen Luchini said.
Coach says: "They just clicked. It's rare to find a doubles team that clicks like that. They both have a great passion for the game and understand what it takes to win. They know how to motivate each other when one was down or not playing their best. And they have great chemistry for where the other was on the court. Communication between the two was outstanding." -- Luchini.

No Grand Jury, Macy Asks -- Inquiry Could Affect Bombing Trial, Da Says

By John Greiner & Ed Godfrey"Daily Oklahoman" Staff Writers, 1/14/97
Oklahoma County District Attorney Bob Macy asked the state Supreme Court on Monday to reverse a ruling that allows an Oklahoma City legislator to seek a county grand jury probe of the Oklahoma City bombing case.
Saying a local grand jury probe could compromise federal prosecution of the Murrah bombing, Macy asked the Supreme Court to either reverse a lower appellate court ruling or stay it until the federal trials are over.
Last month the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals ruled state Rep. Charles Key and Glenn Wilburn, who lost two grandsons in the bombing, could circulate a grand jury petition for a probe into controversial theories that the government knew before hand about the bombing and that other suspects still are to be caught.
Key and Wilburn want an Oklahoma County grand jury to review evidence they say federal investigators ignored even though two suspects, Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, were indicted by a federal grand jury last year.
"I'm very disappointed," said Key, R-Oklahoma City, of this latest development Monday. "I think most people are disappointed, except for Judge Owens."
Oklahoma County District Judge Dan Owens ruled against Key and Wilburn on their grand jury petition request and their subsequent amended petition.
Wilburn's grandsons, Chase Smith, 3, and Colton Smith, 2, were killed in the April 19, 1995, bombing.
Macy acknowledged that Owens' wishes "had a lot of bearing" on his decision to appeal, but said Monday he believes the Supreme Court should decide this matter.
"I feel like this is an issue of sufficient importance that it should be decided by the Supreme Court," he said. "Their decision is not only going to effect this grand jury but every grand jury that is called in the state from now on."
Macy said he hopes the Supreme Court will determine under what circumstances a grand jury may be impaneled and what discretion local judges have in those decisions. Owens' original decision in denying Key's request was based on "sound legal reasoning," Macy said.
Owens ruled Key's "blanket allegations" were insufficient to impanel a county grand jury.
Key said he had two conversations Monday with Macy. Key, Wilburn and their attorney Mark Sanford will meet with Macy today.
"It's very, very disappointing to have a judge wanting to make law himself," Key said. "That's exactly what this is all about. This is about the people's right to have a grand jury impaneled."
Macy said he feared that having a county grand jury investigating the bombing at the same time as the trials in Denver would "have a negative impact on the federal prosecution."
Macy said he was unsure if a county grand jury was necessary, saying Key's questions about the bombing may be answered in the upcoming federal trials.
"So much of it depends on what the federal case looks like. If the federal investigation has been as thorough as it has been represented to me to be, than there would be no need for a second grand jury," Macy said.
In his petition asking the Supreme Court to take jurisdiction in the case, Macy said: "The issues presented are of monumental importance, not only for this case and the potential impact on the pending federal case, but also for grand juries that will be called throughout the state in the future."
Key's and Wilburn's grand jury petitions failed to state where or whom to inquire, Macy said.
"This is the equivalent of requesting a grand jury to investigate every unsolved crime in Oklahoma," the petition states.
The Court of Civil Appeals' decision erroneously stated it was improper for Judge Owens to take into account anything other than the petition itself when Owens ruled on it, the petition states.
"This decision flies in the face of reason that the presiding judge (Owens), in his own district, cannot take judicial notice of the events that are occurring within it. This is especially true of an event in the magnitude of the bombing, with the investigation, indictment and pending federal prosecution. Decisions are not made in a vacuum."
Macy argued for permitting a judge to use common sense in these kind of cases.
"If the presiding judge cannot utilize common sense, what is to stop a small portion of the population from repeatedly bringing requests for grand jury petitions on the same topic until they get their desired result?" the petition asked.
Even if a county grand jury is not empaneled, Macy still intends to pursue state murder charges after the bombing trial is completed.

Prince William 'Torn' Over Leaving Pregnant Kate Middleton's Side
Prince William didn't let his wife's July 13 due date get in the way of playing in a charity polo match that day and the day after, but the dad-to-be was still anxious about leaving Kate's side!
Prince William, 31, may be expecting his very first child with wife Kate Middleton, 31, but he didn't neglect his responsibilities as the Duke of Cambridge. As much as it pained him to have to leave his pregnant wife on her due date and the day after, William headed more than 90 miles away from London to play polo in Sydmonton, England!
Prince William Devastated About Having To Leave Pregnant Kate Middleton
Prince William may have had a charity event to attend, but he was torn about having to leave his pregnant wife in the final days of her pregnancy. A source close to the Palace told The Daily Mirror:
Initially his office said yes, then said no, and then confirmed that he would be playing. I think he was torn as, clearly, he wants to be with his wife at such an important time. But he was also too aware how much the event raises for charities he is passionate about.
But while he did have to go, he definitely took every precaution possible to ensure that he would make it to his wife's side if she did in fact go into labor while he was gone. William had a car on standby, complete with a police escort, to make the 100 mile trip to St. Mary's Hospital in London as quickly as possible.
Luckily for Prince William, he didn't have to worry about missing his firstborn's birth — Kate is still pregnant!
The Duke and Duchess on Royal Baby Watch
Her July 13 due date came and went, so Kate has opted for a new location to wait for her baby to arrive. In an attempt to escape the London heat, Kate has fled her Nottingham Cottage home on the grounds of Kensington Palace in favor of her parents' home in Bucklebury! While the temperatures may be lower, she is also an hour away from St. Mary's Hospital, the London hospital where she plans to deliver the royal baby and heir to the royal throne. While there is a plan in place to get Kate to the hospital if she does go into labor while surrounded by her family, we hope that she makes it back to London in time to give birth – and that Prince William makes it there too!
What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Should Prince William have left pregnant Kate Middleton's side to play in the polo match?

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- Brad Emaus is looking more and more like the Mets opening day second baseman.
Emaus went 4 for 4 with a homer, three runs scored and an RBI, and the Mets beat the St. Louis Cardinals 16-3 on Thursday.
Emaus' standout performance came a day after the Mets optioned Justin Turner to Triple-A Buffalo, clearing a better path for Emaus to win the job. Luis Hernandez and Daniel Murphy are also in the mix.
The Rule 5 selection said the performance was not a result of any relaxed feelings that may have resulted from the competition narrowing down.
"I just went out and had a good day," said Emaus, who boosted his average to.293 for the spring. "Like I've said, every day is a new day. I felt like my swing is starting to get a little bit better, and I had some good swings out there."
When asked if Emaus took a step toward nailing down the job, manager Terry Collins paused before saying, "I thought he played very well."
"He swung the bat good," Collins added with a laugh. "I saw a pretty quick set of hands on that bag. I thought he played very, very well. Pretty impressive."
Emaus wasn't the only Mets player to have a good day Thursday.
New York scored eight runs in the fourth, including seven straight two-out hits after an error by second baseman Skip Schumaker extended the inning. In addition to Emaus, David Wright, Angel Pagan, Josh Thole and minor leaguer Matt Den Dekker also homered, and the Mets finished with 23 hits on the day.
"It was a great day for everyone," Emaus said. "I'll take that all year."
Cardinals left-hander Jaime Garcia said he didn't feel anything mechanically wrong with his pitches or delivery in that fourth inning, but he wasn't concerned because that's "just baseball."
Garcia yielded 10 runs -- only three earned -- on 14 hits and no walks in four innings, and he struck out one batter.
"I threw a lot of strikes today," Garcia said. "It's mechanical when you are walking a lot of people and falling behind every time. But today, I was able to get ahead. I made good pitches early in the game. That inning was a long inning. I got a little tired maybe, I don't know."
The Mets didn't just hit Garcia hard. Thole and Emaus hit back-to-back homers against Eduardo Sanchez in the fifth inning and Den Dekker hit a three-run shot off Mitchell Boggs in the sixth.
Mets left-hander Chris Capuano allowed three runs, two earned on eight hits in five innings, walking no one and fanning four.
NOTES: Mets pitcher Chris Young, slated to be the team's No. 4 starter, will pitch in a simulated game Friday along with reliever Jason Isringhausen, while the club travels to play the Marlins. Carlos Beltran also will participate in the game.

1985: 'Gas blast' kills five in GlasgowA young family of four have been killed in an explosion in a block of flats in Glasgow.
A neighbour also died in the blast which destroyed the building in the King's Park district of the city.
The accident is believed to have been caused by leaking gas and investigators have found a fractured gas main nearby.
The broken pipe is made of cast iron and is similar to the one blamed for the fatal leak in Putney, south London, earlier this year which resulted in the deaths of eight people.
Neighbours began searching the ruins for survivors immediately after the blast - which occurred at 0810 GMT - and they were joined by firemen minutes later.
Resident Norman Rogers was in the building with his wife and son and told reporters he had had a lucky escape.
"The whole house came raining down on top of me and I was trapped under rubble," he said.
Ball of flame
Postman James McMullen was delivering letters to the house next door when the flats exploded.
"The window smashed open and I couldn't really see what it was and then a ball of flame came bursting out," he said.
The government has launched an inquiry to investigate the cause of the tragedy.

I've always had a passion for making beautiful things. For the past six years I've brought that passion to designing buildings. I studied under Pritzker Prize winning architect Glenn Murcutt, furthering my interest in architectural delight, sustainability and honesty of materials. I believe Australian open-plan architecture that connects to the outdoors is something to be celebrated. I'm passionate about preserving our architectural heritage to develop the rich layering that makes cities and homes beautiful.

Renovating in a beautiful city like Canberra is always rewarding but can also have its challenges. Many of the city's homes were built before 1979 and although they have good 'bones', they just aren't up to 21st century standards. With the perennial problems of poor...read more

The K2 Episodes 13 & 14 And You Thought OUR Politics Were Crazy??
This past week has been crazy in the real world for your drama club members. There were internet problems and crazy real world schedules, BUT! enough about that, now is the time to discuss everyone's favorite topic . . . . POLITICS!! //tosses confetti in the air// Don't worry though, it's Kdrama politics and so it is much more entertaining and a tad less stressful. Join Cici, DeShonda and Firnlambe as they go over all the mayhem that was released during episodes 13 & 14 of The K2.
Cici: This week's episodes have nearly dashed my hopes for a happy ending. When Je Ha actually took a near-fatal bullet, I almost died. This is not a melodrama where the hero dies, is it? Please tell me it isn't. Because the villains are getting more villainous by the minute, and even the characters that I had hoped would be a safe harbor have evil ulterior motives. Sheesh.
DeShonda: I feel the same way you do Cici. I was so heartbroken when Je Ha got shot. I was hoping that he would pull through. But I was also wondering how this would affect his relationship with Yoo Jin. I knew that she would save him by any means necessary. I also had a feeling that there was a method behind the madness. That information on that USB is key. I was glad that she let Anna see him. I was worried that Yoo Jin would not go for that at all. I must admit I had a flashback to the movie Mommy Dearest when Yoo Jin made Anna call her mom. That made my skin crawl because it was so obvious that Anna did not want to. But she had to do what she had to in order to see Je Ha.
Firnlambe: I can't say I was too surprised by Je Ha getting shot. I think I was more disappointed he didn't just stay in the moving truck in order to get away. //sigh// but such is Kdrama logic I suppose. As for Anna being forced to call Yoo Jin mother . . . I was so heartbroken for her because you KNOW that took a lot for her to do, and furious at Yoo Jin.
Cici: Ew, that "Eomma" scene was really creepy. Yoo Jin is seriously unhinged when it comes to both Anna and her mother. So, do you think Yoo Jin's flashback that showed her killing Anna's mom is real, or is it just the tortured imaginings of a person who wished she had done it? I'm never quite sure what tricks the writers are willing to pull in order to sneak in an unexpected plot twist.
Firnlambe: I know that I sure am convinced, granted I've always hated Yoo Jin and so you know, there's that . . but it makes the most sense. I can't see any other reason for why she would have had a flashback like that.
DeShonda: You know, I'm trying to figure out Yoo Jin's flashbacks as well. A part of me thinks that the flashbacks are of a person who wished she had killed Anna's mother. I don't want to believe that Yoo Jin killed Anna's mother, but she could very well have. Either way, I know that I am going to be shocked at this twist when it is revealed. I did appreciate hearing the backstory at Se Joon's press conference where he explained how he fallen in love with Anna's mother when he was lawyer in 1993. So they planned to marry, but was arrested and Um Hye Rin married someone else and left him heartbroken. But what killed me was while he was telling this story, he called Anna a "nightmare." I knew he was lying through his teeth, but that was a low blow and downright mean to say that about his daughter.
Cici: Yeah, well, that whole press conference was obviously scripted by Yoo Jin in order to win sympathy for both of them. It was the only chance he had of saving his candidacy, but it sure proved where his priorities lie. And they're not with Anna. Never have been. I couldn't believe that he had the nerve to tell her it was all lies and ask for her forgiveness. Why on earth should she forgive him? He's a self-centered jerk and always has been, and he'd do the same thing again if it was politically advantageous.
Firnlambe: Honestly, I've given up on the whole family dynamic for this show. I'm fully committed to Je Ha and Anna's relationship. All other relationships, particularly the one with her father, could stop for all I care lol.
DeShonda: Yes! The audacity of him to go back and ask for forgiveness was crazy. Of course Anna is not going to forgive him and I don't blame her not one bit. And there is not a doubt in my mind that he would do it again in a heartbeat to save his own butt. But then we learn that the witness of the murder was not very accurate in the first place. He says maybe he thought he saw Yoo Jin killing Um Hye Rin but he never actually said it was her.
Cici: Oh, he was an actor hired by Yoo Jin. Weird. But I guess it made it obvious to her who her real enemies were. I thought that Anna saw who was in the room the night her mother was killed, though. Does she just not remember it, or were her eyes covered? Maybe not remembering is part of her PTSD. Speaking of which, what did you think of the way Yoo Jin let Anna know that Je Ha couldn't kill anyone because of his PTSD? She really rubbed Anna's nose in the fact that she knows very little about the man she has fallen in love with.
Firnlambe: Yoo Jin plays dirty. I wouldn't be surprised if she becomes much more vicious towards Anna. She revealed all of these "secrets" in an attempt to break the bond forming between them. And I'm 100% certain it is out of pure spite.
DeShonda: Honestly, I think that was kind of cold hearted of Yoo Jin to tell Anna that, but then again she was not lying to her. She was telling the honest truth about his situation to her. It's obvious that she is very jealous of Anna getting close to Je Ha because she too has feelings for him. Maybe it was her way of trying to break them apart by telling her that Je Ha is not what she thinks he is. Yoo Jin almost makes him seem like liar or a person who is keeping a lot of secrets Anna. And rightfully so, I mean he has to be secretive about some things in his life. He does not want to put Anna in harm's way at all so I can understand that. He wants to protect her.
Cici: Well, that little confrontation was one way to find out just how much trust and faith Anna has in Je Ha. Yoo Jin lies when it is to her benefit. We know that, Anna knows that, everyone knows that. But she is so clever mixing her lies in with truths that it can be hard to tell which is which. I was relieved, though, when Je Ha came to and told Yoo Jin that he didn't steal the USB drive for her benefit. Here she honestly thought he was her friend. Really? She is delusional. But while I'm glad he was honest with her, I'm a little worried about his timing. She still has so much power over him, and now she may be less reluctant to use it.
Firnlambe: Oh I cheered out loud during that whole scene. I'm glad he's standing up for them. I just hope the USB can be recovered asap. Quite honestly, how all of JSS missed it when they were combing the roadside still baffles me.
DeShonda: I was very happy as well when Je Ha told her about the USB. Yes, she got played on that one by him. I was thinking the same thing Cici, the timing of this worries me as well. I'm afraid she is going to do something drastic to Je Ha.
Cici: There is that possibility, especially if she finds out that that USB drive has evidence that could also bring down JB Group. Good grief, who isn't incriminated by that information? Not only Assemblyman Jang and the untrustworthy uncle, but all those shadowy figures who seem to control the higher-ups in the government, as well as the elections--even the current President and his son are implicated. If that information ever becomes public, half of the powerful folks in South Korea would go down the tube. No wonder people are willing to kill for it. And Je Ha is stuck in the middle. Err...shot in the middle.
Firnlambe: Ha! Shot in the middle . . . clever. I hope everyone related to that USB gets thrown under the bus. That's the only way I can see Je Ha getting out of this ordeal unscathed.
DeShonda: And Je Ha being caught in between this mess is what scares me. I'm hoping nothing bad happens to him, but I am sure if it does he will fight his way out of it. The information on that USB is very powerful indeed. I am looking forward to seeing what happens next with this situation.
Cici: Half of me hopes that he'll use that USB drive to bargain for new identities and plane tickets out of the country for himself and Anna. (Come to the USA--we'll protect you, hide you, feed you, whatever!) But the other half hopes he'll stay and fight to clean up the mess and get vengeance for all that has been done wrong. I can't wait till next week to find out what happens!
Everything seems to be coming to a head. Just what is in store for our OTP? Can Je Ha find the USB again and protect them both? Will Anna actually follow through on her promise to Yoo Jin and leave? Sadly there are only two episodes left, so leave your comments below regarding how you've been enjoying The K2. We love hearing from you.

Big news last week in the wake of the city council ordinance that was passed to reduce emissions from construction sites.
"Residents of several Chicago neighborhoods are likely exposed to diesel emissions at levels many times higher than the average for urban areas, testing by the Chicago News Cooperative shows. In nearly 100 hours of spot testing in early April–near dense residential areas, schools and parks in both working-class and wealthier neighborhoods–the CNC found elevated levels of black carbon. Testing for black carbon is a common way to determine levels of diesel exhaust, which is linked to higher risks of cancer, heart disease and lung disease and is also known to exacerbate allergies and asthma."

South Koreans Face Extinction by 2750
Don't be alarmed, that is a long way off by a few hundred years. However, a study conducted in 2014 found that "South Koreans could 'face natural extinction by 2750 if the birthrate were maintained at 1.19 children per woman — assuming no reunification with North Korea or significant inflow of migrants."
The research conducted by Brookings Institute and commissioned by the National Assembly in Seoul, also found that South Korea's current population of 50.2 million could fall to 20 million by the end of the century.
According to that simulation, the second-largest city, Busan is predicted to "go extinct" by 2413, whereas Seoul has a few more decades (predicted extincition is 2505).
There is still hope if the birthrate were to increase, or if a miraculous reunification with North Korea could happen...
Anything is possible, right?

Pfizer's Hospira deal shores up established product division
Last week's declaration that Pfizer was not under pressure to ink a major deal was not a sign that the firm wasn't interested in one. The proof: Thursday's announcement that the company will pay $17 billion to acquire Hospira Inc.
The move broadens Pfizer's sterile injectables business and bolsters its position in the biosimilars market. Pfizer, which has five biosimilars in its pipeline, estimated in an investor presentation promoting the acquisition that patent lapses will put $100 billion in biologics sales up for grabs over the next five to 10 years.
Investors are unclear which of Hospira's biologics will flow into Pfizer's product book (it depends on the terms of Hospira's previous collaboration deals), but there is overlap between the two companies' offerings: Pfizer's biosimilar of Johnson & Johnson's Remicaid is in phase-III, for example, while Hospira already has one. Similarly, Pfizer's biosimilar lineup includes a Phase-III lookalike of Roche's Herceptin, and a UK court sided with Hospira to overturn two of Roche's Herceptin patents last year.
Buying Hospira also shores up the portfolio of Pfizer's Global Established Pharma business, grounding it in additional products should Pfizer end up splitting into three independent businesses in or after 2017.
Pfizer's immediate financials included last week's announcement that sales slipped 4% last year, to $49.6 billion. Generics hurt 2014's numbers — sales of arthritis medication Celebrex, for example, fell 31% during the fourth quarter, when it battled generics that hit the market in December — and more fallout is expected, such as the company expectation that 2015 sales would hover in the $44.5 billion to $46.5 billion range.
