Advantages: Microsoft maintains a dominant or leading position in PC operating systems, personal productivity applications, gaming systems, servers, corporate email, and browsers. Microsoft's partner relationships are the strongest in the segment and they have the strongest penetration of embedded systems of these three vendors.
They are deeply entrenched in most businesses and homes, making them relatively difficult to displace. And their user interface, Metro, is arguably the most advanced.
Disadvantages: Their goals are in conflict and the company is both massive and complex, making it almost impossible to manage successfully. Valuations have been flat to declining and key employee retention has become a major problem for the company.
Executive leadership has focused excessively on cost reduction, which tends to contribute to a history of uncompleted and poorly marketed offerings. They have nearly lost their leadership position on browsers, are losing leadership on desktop operating systems, and have lost share on smartphones against gains by both Apple and Google due largely to this lack of focus and underfunding.
Over the last decade, Microsoft's CEO has become increasingly isolated from the company and has had to fire a number of top executives for cause, possibly including attempted corporate coups against him.
Finally, their most costly battle, against Google – largely using their Bing service – appears ill-advised given its cost and Google's home turf advantages.
Apple is in by far the best shape due to the fact they are the most tightly focused and least complex of the companies. This makes them more agile.
However this agility is offset by a broken executive leadership due to Steve Jobs' departure. And the company is measured not just on good results but on outstanding results, which they may shortly (within the next 12 months) be no longer able to achieve.
This will put pressure on the board to replace the executive leadership and Jobs, who will see the recent charitable giving decision by Cook as a personal affront, will likely move to replace Cook. This disruption and conflict will further weaken the company. Apple needs to either replace Steve Jobs' unique skills or change the company so his skills are no longer needed. Otherwise they will face a long slide from their current position at the top.
Google is in the second best position, largely because their advertising revenue is not yet being challenged by Apple and Microsoft's efforts are still not doing the firm significant damage.
However they face an increasing likelihood of regulation and their Android partners are becoming increasingly disloyal. They are consuming massive amounts of capital on what appears to be non-strategically aligned efforts. These efforts are contributing to their underfunding other efforts and search could, as a result, become vulnerable to the coming wave of targeted applications (Facebook etc.).
Finally, their inexperienced executive management is one mistake away from an avoidable catastrophe that could take them out of the fight. Google needs to focus and decide on one clear set of interlocking goals and begin showing some maturity by avoiding obvious mistakes and fully funding initiatives or its best days will be behind it.
Microsoft is the only company bleeding dominance in areas where they have it significantly. This suggests they need to move to a protect strategy and shift resources to either protect their core products or restore market share for them.
Most troubling are the smartphone and browser products which have been bleeding share badly and remain massively underfunded against this critical threat. However, tablets have started to cut sharply into Windows share as well and the loss of dominance in all three areas would be a critical strategic loss to the firm representing tens of billions of dollars in revenue and profits.
Both Windows 8 and IE 10 are very competitive, but the core issue is one of leadership, focus, and funding. And if that issue isn't more effectively addressed Microsoft will continue to lose strategic battles to both Google and Apple.
Microsoft's executive leadership needs to step up or step out before these dominant leadership positions are lost. Otherwise they may be lost for good and Microsoft will slip into a steep decline.

American Eagle Airlines, Inc. To Change Its Name To Envoy
All Regional Air Service for American Airlines will Continue to Operate Under the American Eagle Brand and Livery
Jan 14, 2014, 10:00 EST
FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- American Eagle Airlines, Inc. (American Eagle Airlines), a wholly owned subsidiary of American Airlines Group Inc., announced today that the company will be changing its name to Envoy in spring 2014. This change is being made to give the company its own distinct identity and eliminate the confusion between the company's current name and American Eagle, the regional flying brand of American Airlines, Inc. With the formation of American Airlines Group, the 10 carriers currently providing regional service for the legacy American and US Airways networks will all eventually fly under the American Eagle brand.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140114/DA46068LOGO)
"Our people and our company – which is one the largest regional carriers in the world with some of the best people in our business – deserve a name that is all our own," said Pedro Fabregas, the president and CEO of American Eagle Airlines. "By taking on the Envoy name, we can better differentiate ourselves from the competition and better market ourselves. This is important for both our people and our company as we further expand our ground handling business."
American Eagle Airlines has more than 14,000 employees and a growing portfolio of business outside of its flying operations, including a robust aviation ground handling operation. Envoy was chosen as the company's new name after an extensive selection and vetting process that included looking at more than 1,000 names and considering feedback from American Eagle Airlines employees. The name was chosen because Envoy is reflective of what the company does for the airlines it works with – serving as their ambassador and a representative to their customers.
Customers traveling on both American Eagle Airlines and American Eagle-branded regional air service will not experience any changes to their travel experience as a result of this name change. Ticket counters and gates will continue to be branded American and American Eagle and Envoy's aircraft will continue to operate using the American Eagle brand and livery. Once the necessary regulatory processes and approvals are complete, "Operated by Envoy" will be added to the company's aircraft paint scheme and noted on customers' tickets much like it is for American's other regional carrier partners currently flying using the American Eagle brand.

Jordan Peele's first feature as director is a confident step away from his previous television exploits: Mad TV (2002) and Key & Peele (2012), throwing off his sketch-show jacket and donning a more provocative and thoughtful attire. While still holding on to his satirical voice, Peele allows the film to linger within the fringes of recognisable genres but, if forced to decide where to place it, GET OUT has definitely created a home for itself as a horror film.
British actor Daniel Kaluuya gives a solid performance as young photographer Chris Washington, who's about to embark on the most nerve-wracking adventure of any new relationship: meeting the parents. "Do they know I'm black?" he asks his girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams) who works to ease his concerns of the initial reception he may receive. Rose, an ostensibly liberal, young white woman, seems to focus much more on Chris' race than seems comfortable at times, and polices it on his behalf.
Chris' anxieties are alleviated when he is greeted by a very unassuming and welcoming Dean (Bradley Whitford) and Missy Armitage (Catherine Keener). From the moment Chris arrives, the scenes are peppered with cringe-worthy moments: A family friend boasting to him: "I do know Tiger" and Dean explaining how he'd vote for Obama for a third term if he could. Initially this could be disregarded as a bunch of middle-class, semi-enlightened white people trying their best to make Chris feel welcome, but Peele wants the audience to look deeper and not to merely accept those awkward moments as "typical" and things that "just happen."
It's not long before Chris clocks the family's slightly odd pair of hired helpers, Walter (Marcus Henderson) and Georgina (Betty Gabriel), both African American. Their every move seems pre-coordinated, their eyes glazed and smiles fixed. The feel of the film spirals quickly into much darker territory with the introduction of Rose's creepy brother, Jeremy (Caleb Landry Jones) over an odd family dinner. The dinner culminates with Missy's offer to help Chris stop smoking, which subsequently turns into a session where Chris finds himself paralysed and falling into the darkness of what Missy calls "the sunken place."
What results is a character literally fighting to save his own skin, with the horror elements coming to full fruition in the last thirty or so minutes of the film (greatly enhanced by a pair of deer antlers being used as a murder weapon). GET OUT shares a similar sense of dread with David Robert Mitchell's IT FOLLOWS (2015): as the horror that will eventually befall Chris lies in wait. Also reminiscent of Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror series (in which Kaluuya also appears) which shares a combination of witty and provocative storytelling that allows audiences to question the societal issues that are often glossed over or accepted as normal.
The humour is consistently organic to the plot and Peele's comedic background has served him well here. GET OUT is arguably the best horror film this year so far, not only because of its themes and purposeful prodding of an issue so easily avoided, but in its success at twisting the horror genre into something more original and relevant. Peele has created a fiery response to questions surrounding a post-racial culture, with a satirical but thoughtful telling of white hegemony and racism in a supposedly "liberal" society.

Discussion in 'Link Building' started by khantahir_2, Oct 16, 2012.
Can anyone tell me what are wikilinks and how are they done ?
wiki links are the links that comes from wiki sites. You can register and write an article with a backlink to your money site.
Here is an example for the sites
you can search BHW for big lists
wiki are the sites where information is aviable.
In seo we use Wiki to post an information article with your keyword and url to get backlink
Wiki links are links built by some authority specific websites that allow you to put into them specific article with specific information (gathered by different methods and manners), obliviously posting backlinks to money site by blasting 1000 spammy wiki links with shitty articles scraped by ezine in 1 day is dangerous, but if you have some kind of care, everything will worth time spent
Yes this is correct and there are many wiki sites that you can choose from.
Link comes from Wiki sites known as Wiki Links
The best part about using wikis is that you can find a wide range of these websites belonging to multiple niches. Depending on your specific requirements, you can choose either industry-targeted wikis or target relevant subcategories in large wikis. You can also target country-specific wikis for getting local or regional traffic to your website or blog
Does anyoen have a list or a thread I can visit on wikilinks?
hey now I just register on a site like this and I create an article put my link, post it and thats all ????

Grounding of the bulk carrier "MAPLE"
on Lake St. Louis
St. Lawrence Seaway, Quebec
21 September 1994
The "MAPLE" was proceeding upbound on Lake St. Louis in the St. Lawrence Seaway toward Lock No. 3 at Beauharnois, Quebec. When the vessel entered the approach basin, the bow was angled to port toward the approach lock wall, and then various engine and helm manoeuvres were carried out to set the bow against the tie-up wall and to slow down the progress of the vessel. However, the vessel did not react as expected. The ship's port side struck the tie-up wall on the east side, and the vessel swung to starboard until the bulbous bow grounded off the opposite wall on the west side. The hull plating on the starboard side of the bulbous bow was ruptured and, consequently, the forepeak was flooded. There was no pollution as result of this accident.
Factual Information
Particulars of the Vessel
|Port of Registry
|Nassau, Bahamas
|Official Number
|Bulk carrier
|Gross Tonnage
|151.75 m
|Forward: 78.4 dm
Aft: 78.2 dm
|Sulzer six-cylinder diesel, 6,032 kW
|Kobbe Howard Compania Naviera Sa
Panama, Panama
Forward of the accommodation, the "MAPLE" has four cargo holds. She has two masts with slewing derricks on the centre line of the vessel, one abaft the forecastle and one between hatches Nos. 2 and 3. A goalpost mast is located between the accommodation and the fourth hatch. The vessel has a fixed-pitch right-hand propeller. Engine speeds for "dead slow ahead" and "slow ahead" were, respectively, 5.2 knots (kn) and 7.3 kn.
Vessel records show that the number and the times at which the entries were logged differ in the bridge bell book and the engine movement book. Testimony also differs as to the number of engine manoeuvres carried out before the grounding.
On 21 September 1994, the "MAPLE" was proceeding toward Lock No. 3 at Beauharnois under the conduct of a pilot. The vessel entered the approach basin still making a speed of 5 to 6 kn, and the vessel's axis was reportedly angled approximately 30 to the tie-up wall. Ahead engine "kicks" were given but the bow never set on the tie-up wall. When a half-astern "kick" was produced to slow down the vessel, the bow swung to starboard. Ahead engine "kicks" with hard-a-port helm were ordered. Nevertheless, the vessel turned parallel to the tie-up wall and the ship's side struck the tie-up wall. Then, at the No. 2 Limit of Approach sign, the vessel swung to starboard and proceeded toward the south-west corner of the approach basin. The port anchor was dropped and about 15 m of anchor chain was let go in the water. Astern engine movement was given but, at approximately 2100(1), the bow made contact with the bottom off the opposite side to the tie-up wall.
The vessel reported no mechanical breakdowns or propeller damage that could have affected manoeuvrability before the occurrence. There was no apparent damage to either the ship's port side nor to the tie-up wall as a result of the striking.
Seaway Beauharnois confirmed that the current, which is created by the rate of flow at the weir upstream, was average. The current at the entrance to the approach basin has an easterly set. The turn to port off the Fortier anchorage was made wide to compensate for this drift. There is no appreciable current in the approach basin.
Reportedly, easterly winds at an average speed of 10 kn did not affect the manoeuvrability of the vessel. Pilotage was carried out by visual observation in the darkness. Visibility was good and all navigation aids were reported operational.
To improve a vessel's steerage-way at manoeuvring speeds, engine "kicks" are carried out to increase the water flow in way of the rudder thereby increasing rudder efficiency. The ahead engine "kicks" interspersed with stop engine manoeuvres carried out indicate that attempts were made to set the bow against the tie-up wall, but the expected result was not achieved.
On entering the approach basin, the vessel had a headway of approximately 5 to 6 kn. This speed is considered greater than that required to approach a tie-up wall. Considering the vessel's approach speed, evidence suggests that the ahead engine "kicks" may not have been powerful enough to create sufficient propeller thrust to increase rudder efficiency and thereby swing the bow to port.
Since the ahead engine "kicks" could not correct the situation, it was decided to slow down the vessel with a "half-astern" engine manoeuvre. Due to the propeller's fixed right-hand pitch characteristics, the bow swung to starboard and the ship's port side struck the tie-up wall as the vessel adopted a position parallel to the tie-up wall. Lack of damage may be the result of a large section of the ship's side absorbing the impact.
Under the effect of the momentum of the swing of the bow to starboard and of the headway, the stern was subjected to bank suction from the tie-up wall, further reducing manoeuvrability. The subsequent engine manoeuvres did not cause the vessel to swing to port. The vessel was committed toward the lock entrance and, by this time, the pilot and navigating personnel realized that the vessel could not safely enter the lock. The port anchor was let go, but the anchor did not stop the vessel and the grounding occurred.
- On entering the approach basin, the vessel had a considerable headway.
- Even though engine and helm manoeuvres were carried out, the bow never set on the tie-up wall.
- Due to the propeller's fixed right-hand pitch characteristics, the bow swung to starboard.
- Bank suction between the port quarter and the tie-up wall prevented the vessel from swinging to port.
- The anchor and engine manoeuvres did not stop the vessel before she reached the south-west corner of the approach basin.
Causes And Contributing Factors
When the vessel entered the approach basin, the headway was not reduced sufficiently. The various engine manoeuvres did not develop sufficient propeller thrust for the vessel to react as expected. The propeller's fixed right-hand pitch characteristics did not favour a slow-down manoeuvre toward a tie-up wall on the port side.
This report concludes the Transportation Safety Board's investigation into this occurrence. Consequently, the Board, consisting of Chairperson, John W. Stants, and members Zita Brunet and Hugh MacNeil, authorized the release of this report on 16 May 1995.

Mercury's Diana Taurasi named WNBA All-Star starter
It's almost a given at this point that if eligible, the Mercury's Diana Taurasi will be a starter in the WNBA All-Star Game.
So when the starters were announced Tuesday, it was no surprise that for the eighth time in her career Taurasi made the cut.
She's averaging 18.1 points, 2.7 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 3.5 threes per game, and on June 18 became the league's all-time leading scorer.
In her first seven starting selections, Taursai was chosen solely by the fans, but this season the fans made up just 50 percent of the vote, with the other 50 percent being split up between the media and current players.
Taurasi has not been an all-star six times in her career, although in 2004, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2016 there was not a game and in 2015 she sat out the season.
The reserves that will join Taurasi in Seattle will be announced next Tuesday, July 18. The game itself will take place on Saturday, July 22 and be shown on ABC at 12:30 p.m. Arizona time.

The two beehives shown in the picture above are two very different designs. The larger one on the right was purchased first. It's a minimalist, super-eco design, made to house honey bees, not for the extraction of their honey. Designed originally by an Argentinian natural bee keeper, it's called a Peroni hive. Inside there is a log on the floor and wooden slats across the top, the idea being that bees form their own honeycomb around the log and hang from the slats. A year and a half ago, honey bees from a July swarm moved in and seemed to be settling in well, but a harsh, long, cold winter took its toll and they never made it. True to folklore, a swarm of bees in July isn't worth a fly. They left behind a beautiful heart-shaped spiral honeycomb around the log though.
The second beehive is much smaller, as it was felt that the larger, Peroni hive could have been too big for a new bee swarm. This one is a Warre hive (designed by a French nineteenth-century priest) and includes a luxury, sheep's wool lining, to keep the bees snug and warm in the future. There are windows on the side to check on the hive's inhabitants, and the design has room for the expansion of additional floors.
Sadly both hives sit empty. Although Melissa Garden Bee Sanctuary has been on two waiting lists for swarms, none has been forthcoming so far. It's a salutary tale of the dangers faced by our honey bee population, which has fallen by about a third every year over the last five years. They, and we, hope that next May or June their luck will be in and a swarm will get relocated to their garden, but swarms only form when bees outgrow their homes, so it's a waiting game.
As well as tending their own garden and giving talks on the importance of bees to the environment, members of the New Acropolis Society help out in Compton Terrace Gardens at the front of the house. The gardens have anchor shaped beds, about which various myths exist . Were they connected to the nearby Hope and Anchor public house? No-one knows. The sight of colourful annual plants in these beds was a feature of the past, but volunteers are patiently creating some pleasing perennial herbaceous areas in their stead. Corporate volunteers are also building pathways for children's play in another corner and a variety of fruit trees have been planted, including medlar, quince, pear and crab apple. Herbs are grown for local residents to use and enjoy - the chef at Union Chapel uses them to spice up the cooking.
New Acropolis believes in cultivating the better part of the human spirit and putting it to good use in the city. Its bee sanctuary garden is a noble project and, if you hear of a swarm of bees needing a loving home, don't hesitate to contact them, so that next June 14-15 there will be full hives to view as you sit in their garden, eating one of the best slices of Victoria sandwich cake on offer anywhere and learning about bees.

so what do you say we just turn this website over to janklow just bitching about totally random things that no one cares about? wait, we weren't there already?!
now, one of the things i do on the internet is read a range of random news/current events/whatever sites and blogs for reasons i can't really explain, since it's not like this is required for my field of study or employment and certainly doesn't seem to add to my quality of life; still, it happens regardless. anyway, it's usually the case that i get turned on to said site through another and continue to read it because i find its material interesting. in this case, we're talking about Juan Cole's blog Informed Comment, a blog on the topic of, to quote the site, "an independent and informed perspective on Middle Eastern and American politics."
Juan Cole: noted expert on firearm technology
and i would agree with that; Cole seems to know the topic(s) in question and while i cannot recall the specific reason why i started reading his blog, i was certainly linked there by another author for some reason and enjoyed his work on the topics he purports his blog to be about. i certainly have no credentials or other standing to otherwise malign his work, but then i wouldn't anyway. except…
so the thing is, a guy who blogs about one topic (even if it's a HUGE topic that you can easily go down the rabbit hole on) is invariably going to discuss off-topic things of interest, and Cole does that. and one of the failings Juan Cole seems to seriously possess is to presume he is the same degree of expert on those things as he is on his topic of, well, ACTUAL knowledge. it's a little like listening to Tom Cruise expound on psychiatry: i have no doubt that, whatever his level of natural skill, Tom Cruise could thoughtfully explain acting and his methods… but that doesn't mean he knows as much about medical matters. now, MOST of us understand this and rein ourselves in when we're about to lecture people on topics we lack knowledge of. but in Cole's case…
ANYWAY, one of Cole's pet peeves is OMG AMERICAN GUN LAWS and, as you can imagine, i have some strong opinions on this as well. now, i do not consider myself an expert, but there are many aspects of firearm ownership that i AM familiar with. but what brings us to our particular topic is this: some months ago, on one particular occasion, Cole began to opine that what the US needs is gun laws on par with Canada and other nations that do not allow the ownership of semi-automatic firearms, a statement that is, frankly, entirely false, and which someone can discover to be false with minimal effort. and frankly, this is a disappointing position from anyone with any level of education, because it seems to me that if i were to argue "let's install this country's series of laws," i would first, you know, LEARN WHAT THEY ARE.
on this occasion, i pointed out, in what i assure you was the politest fashion possible, despite whatever you know about me, that this position was not correct, on the grounds that, well, you can own semi-automatic firearms in Canada. he disagreed and supported his argument on the grounds that i was wrong because… well, because he disagreed. i reiterated my point (essentially, that while Canada has more strict laws in many respects, a total ban on semi-automatics is not one of them), and he then began to delete my posts.
now, i know this is really just being Mad On The Internet on my behalf, but this is the kind of stuff that really grinds my gears. like a professor that rails against 4th Amendment violations while promoting 2nd Amendment violations or something! but more seriously, this is the result of several things:
#01. the continuing misconception by anti-gun people that "semi-automatics" means "FUCKING MILITARY-ISSUE MACHINE GUNS";
#02. the willful efforts by these people to not bother to learn what they're actually talking about;
#03. people's misconception that knowing a LOT about one topic means you know a goddamn thing about another topic.
summation: Juan Cole sucks and i have no doubt he'd have harsh words for someone who actively censored his words. this is why i don't read his site, which was quite informative and enjoyable when on topic, anymore. internet rant over.

I recently attended a talk given by Jan Parry, who provided information and research support to the Hillsborough Independent Panel, which, in 2012, oversaw the disclosure of public documents related to the 1989 disaster. Their website provides very clear background on what happened on 15th April 1989, as well as outlining the work they did to gather related documents and make them publicly available. I should state that the following is entirely my own interpretation: Jan's measured, even-handed talk was essentially factual and did not offer up any opinions on either the disaster or the work of the Panel. But it made me think about the information public organisations hold, how they use it, and its value for preventing disasters and revealing facts. I've selected a couple of things from Jan's very fulsome talk, and any mistakes in reporting are my own misremembering or misinterpretation.
Jan began by showing us the map of the Hillsborough ground which was used on the day. This plan both showed and lacked information pertinent to what happened. Much has been written about the power of maps to give and withhold information: they are representations and a choice is always made about what is included and how it is shown. This map shows how space was constricted at the Leppings Lane end of the ground but is limited in representing how confusing the divided inner concourse was for supporters, nor exactly how uneven the distribution of turnstiles was, things which had they been more apparent might have encouraged different policing decisions. Jan also mentioned information that was available about previous (non-fatal) crushing incidents at Hillsborough and the results of the report into the Bradford City ground, which identified the dangers of using 'pens' in football terraces. These were not considered as part of plans for crowd control during the match.
As well as information which was available, but was ignored, some information was out of date. The police Operational Plan, which exists for every football match, had not been updated since the two teams last met at the ground the previous year. From a knowledge management point of view, both teams having met at the same ground for the 1988 semi-final could have provided useful learning points to inform a new Operational Plan, but if there was a debrief of police officers present at the previous match, it was not added to it. And in this case, knowledge transfer was vital, as the Match Commander in 1989 had no experience at Hillsborough. Other information could have been added to the plan: roadworks which made many Liverpool fans late are thought to have contributed to the crowding which built up at the Leppings Lane entrance. I'm not in a position to judge whether having a better map of the ground, an up-to-date operational plan, or more shared experience about managing a match at the ground, would have prevented the disaster. But these seem to me to be vital pieces of knowledge which needed to be expressed, and once expressed, shared and made explicit.
Jan also talked at length about the evidence gathered in the lengthy series of inquiries and investigations which followed the disaster. The stated purpose of the Panel was to allow documents related to the disaster to be released into the public domain ahead of the usual 30 years, but in the process an enormous amount of information was assembled together for the first time. Each contributing organisation: the government, police authorities, coroner's service and NHS were asked to scan, digitise, redact and catalogue these documents with Home Office support. Some of the documents had always been available, but not read as significant. South Yorkshire Police happily released material which illustrated that some police statements had been edited before being made public, but did not see that this might have damaged earlier investigations. Many of these documents are now being used as new evidence and cases are being reopened.
One of the recommendations from the Panel was that public bodies such as police authorities and the coroner's office should have a mandate to manage and keep their records (something which surprised me was not already the case). South Yorkshire Police had been going to dispose of some of the records which they instead gave to the Panel, and were within their rights to do so. Of course there are limits to 'just in case' record-keeping, but these public sector bodies could, if they had wished, destroyed information pertinent to new investigations. If the suggestions are followed, they will have a responsibility to keep records and manage them in a way that enables them to be found again. This seems essential to me if we want to be able to prevent or subsequently investigate significant events in the future.
However, I think this alone is not enough. Public sector information also needs to be joined up and exposed to analysis, in a way that modern technology now makes possible. Take the absence of information about road works in Operational Plan for the match at Hillsborough in April 1989. Modern data analytics tools enable police to combine public domain data about planned roadworks, standard traffic flows and their own knowledge of expected crowds to build a clear picture of what the outside of any stadium turnstile will look like just before a match. And this isn't a theoretical picture, an actual map illustrating anticipated road and person congestion at any time of the day could be generated without difficulty. The guidance on policing football matches is undoubtedly more sophisticated now as a result of lessons learned from Hillsborough. Whether or not they have these kinds of tools at their disposal I do not know, but it is surely vital that they do.
Similarly, every investigation into a large-scale disaster or act of violence that I have read about has indicated that joining up information at an earlier date could have prevented death or injury or at the very least found answers to questions asked by victims or their families. Once disparate information is brought together it becomes clear if something in the situation is or was 'not right'. Indeed, it was with these ideas in mind that the Home Offices large-scale IT systems, HOLMES and HOLMES2 were introduced across police services in the UK in the 1980s and 1990s. Many local authorities are to be lauded for releasing data into the public domain, but it is by no means mandated across all public bodies. Technology has created great possibilities for manipulating data, but it needs to be available to begin with. This requires public bodies to maintain their records and, within reasonable and compliant limits, make them available as early as possible. The technology and analytical expertise exist. Opening up the data also needs to follow.

Like that other awesome absurdity that is "SpongeBob SquarePants," "Adventure Time" has also racked up quite the famous faces for their famous voices in the Land of Ooo. Broderick joins other "Adventure Time" celebs such as Neil Patrick Harris, Erik Estrada and George Takei.
Broderick, whose credits beside the beloved "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" include "WarGames," "Election" and "Tower Heist," plays a used car salesman called "The Dream Warrior," who Finn and Jake summon for advice in a shared dream. Like I said, awesome absurdity.
"I heard about Adventure Time because my son, James, loves it," Broderick says in the press release on his guest spot. "I like that it doesn't talk down to anybody."

A packet of white powder that was found at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, where the space shuttle launches, has tested positive for cocaine, according to NASA's Inspector General's office.
The packet contained "4.2 grams of a white powdery substance" and was "found in a NASA facility at KSC on March 7," said spokeswoman Renee Juhans on Tuesday.
"Law enforcement personnel field tested the substance — which indicated a positive test for cocaine. The substance is now at an accredited crime lab for further testing," she said.
"A NASA OIG investigation is ongoing."
NASA has a zero-tolerance drug policy. Juhans declined to comment on exactly where at Kennedy Space Center the cocaine was found, or if any employees had showed positive results in drug tests.
On Monday, an engineer who worked for a company that contracts with NASA fell to his death while working at the Kennedy Space Center launch pad where the shuttle Endeavour is set for liftoff next month.
Asked if there was believed to be any link between the two events, Juhans said: "No comment."

VeriSign(R) Identity Protection (VIP) Access for Mobile Widens Support for Strong AuthenticationNow Supporting the Android(TM) Platform, VIP Access for Mobile Offers the Only Free Downloadable and Strong Authentication Application for Logon and Transaction Security (March 04, 2010)
SAN FRANCISO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/04/10 -- RSA Conference, Booth #1717 - VeriSign, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN), the trusted provider of Internet infrastructure for the networked world, continues to gain traction with customers in driving the adoption of mobile phone-based security for online access. The VeriSign® Identity Protection (VIP) Authentication Service is the leading cloud-based authentication service enabling secure online access for end users utilizing their mobile phones. Today, VeriSign supports both standalone mobile security applications as well as a Mobile Software Development Kit (SDK) for building security into mobile applications.
The VIP Access for Mobile application is offered for free from VeriSign and transforms more than 500 different types of mobile devices into VIP credentials for strong authentication including the most popular handsets -- iPhone®, BlackBerry®, Windows Mobile® and handsets supporting the most popular J2ME and BREW® platforms. Strong authentication works by requiring each user to provide not just a username and password but also a unique, one-time six-digit security code generated by a user's VIP authentication credential.
VIP Access for Mobile now has added support for Nexus One, the latest Android-powered device, and other Android phones from HTC, Samsung and Motorola. Android phone users can take advantage of the added safeguards of VeriSign® Identity Protection (VIP) with a free application available from Android Market. For businesses using Google Apps Premier Edition, VIP Access for Mobile for the Android platform provides another way to add an extra layer of protection when accessing their information.
The VeriSign Mobile SDK allows developers to easily embed VIP security into their value added mobile applications. These applications include mobile banking, mobile payments, social networks and media distribution. VIP customers can now utilize the mobile SDK to simplify account access for their users while making the logon experience much safer and easier. For organizations taking advantage of the Mobile SDK, all their users can maintain or shorten the logon process with security provided 'under the hood' between the mobile application and the enterprise -- which means no longer will they be required to go through the three-step process of entering their username, password, and dynamic security code. VeriSign supports the most popular handset platforms including Android, iPhone, Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME), Windows Mobile and BREW.
The VIP Access for Mobile credentials are utilized with the VeriSign Identity Protection (VIP) Authentication Service. VIP provides an additional layer of protection beyond standard username and password. Strong authentication works by requiring each user to provide not just a username and password but also a second factor, in this case, a dynamic one-time six-digit security code generated by a user's VIP credential. Traditional strong authentication solutions required enterprises to deploy and manage costly IT infrastructure, now enterprises can utilize a VeriSign hosted service to obtain strong authentication. With VIP, enterprises can choose from a variety of credentials for delivering one time passwords including freely available credentials for mobile devices and PCs as well as standalone security devices from industry leading vendors.
"As mobile devices become the preferred way for communicating, banking, social networking and accessing rich media content, the need for enhanced logon and transaction security is greater than ever," said Kerry Loftus, vice president of User Authentication at VeriSign. "VeriSign Identity Protection provides enterprises and consumers the tools to access a very cost-effective cloud-based security solution built to foil the criminal efforts of hackers, identity thieves and fraudsters. With the free VIP Access for Mobile application available on more and more mobile devices worldwide, the protective net of VIP Authentication is spreading."
VIP Access for Mobile and VIP Authentication Service have won several global industry awards including, the Information Security Magazine and SearchSecurity.com 2009 Readers' Choice Gold Award, the eWeek Product to Watch for 2009, the Network World Asia 2009 Readers' Choice Award for Best Identity Management Suite, and the 2009 Network Products Guide Award in the Best in Multi- and Second-Factor Authentication category. VeriSign was also recently named as a finalist for the 2010 SC Magazine Awards in the categories of: Best Identity Management Solution, Best Multi and Second-Factor Solution, Best Security Software Development Solution and Best Web Application Security Solution.

This is the second post in a series about "How To Stop Doing Things You Don't Like." The first can be found here.
The less time you spend doing things that you don't enjoy, the more time you have to pursue your passions and create a life you love.
The less time you spend doing things you "have to", the more you can spend doing what you "want to".
It's pretty basic math. But it's also basic reality that not every unpleasant task can simply be left undone. So what do you do about the important tasks that you really, really dislike?
Step 2: Figure out if someone else can do it.
Delegation. It's the secret weapon of good managers and happy marriages.
Delegation is not about putting your responsibilities off on someone else. In most cases you can create a win-win situation by allowing someone else to do a task that you don't like. It's like a fundamental balancing principle of the Universe or something.
For example, you hate doing yard work. Hate it. But you've determined that the life you want includes a home with a well kept yard. But you still hate doing it, so you hire a local lawn service. Lawn service person? Happy to have your business. You? Happy to not being spending your Saturday mornings mowing the damn lawn. Win-win!
You don't have to spend money to delegate.
In my house, I've delegated a lot of household duties I hate to Jared because he doesn't hate them. He's delegated jobs to me that stress him out, like listing his stuff on Craigslist and eBay or planning our trip itineraries. We don't pay each other, but we do a little compromising and duty swapping so that each of us are spending as little time as possible doing crap we hate.
You can also delegate to your children, your friends, and other members of your community. Again, that doesn't mean you don't contribute or that you expect other people to shoulder all of the responsibility for your life. It just means you open yourself up to the idea of accepting help when you can get it.
Remember that there is a person for every job, a person who gets genuine joy from something that drives you nuts. Let them have their joy, and you go on and find yours.
Of course, in order to delegate you have to learn to trust that other people are just as capable as you are of getting things done.
They might not do it exactly the same way you do, but consider whether their version of done is worse than you having to do it. Try letting someone else take on your crappy task temporarily and see how everyone survives.
For many of us, delegation is something that takes practice and can be even more difficult than just deciding an old obligation is no longer necessary. Asking for help can bring up all kinds of guilt, fear, and control issues. But it's a valuable skill to develop.
Practice delegating in baby steps and you'll probably gain a lot more than extra time for things you love – but that's a great motivation to get started.

Hedgewizard speaks to a very important problem in "The Second Famine Year" -- the price of animal feed, and Chicken feed in particular.
Locally prices have gone up by over 50% in the past 6 or 8 months, so I've been focussing on growing lots more greens specifically for the chickens. They love Endive, which is great, since it is so quick and easy to grow, and equally easy to produce masses of seed. The Ladies also get all the older lettuces as they come out of the ground, and I've just sowed a row of grain-sorghum to give that a try as another feed source.
Another plan I must soon get around to implementing1 is to build a Kale-Ark in the chicken-run. The idea is to plant a bed of Kale (and the Chooks love all of the Cabbage tribe!) and protect it with a wire-mesh tent. Then, as the plants grown bigger, the Chooks will be able to peck at the leaves that poke through the mesh without destroying the plants. At least that's the Theory2...
At least Hedgewizard has the option of buying organic feed! No such luck around here, so our chooks are fed on non-organic crushed maize for their staple diet. I've checked and the supplier assures me that it is GM-free, thankfully, since so many SA farmers have swallowed the GM hype, as have the geniuses in the Dept. of Agriculture. :-(
Interestingly, there seem to be a strong correlation between the amount of greens they get and the number of eggs we get, so the sooner we can ween ourselves off bought-in Chicken food, the better!
[1] As soon as I finish painting the house, digging new beds, fixing the chainsaw, making more compost, port the blog to a new platform, cut firewood for Summer, deconstruct the broken shade-house, construct a greenhouse in its place,...
[2] "In theory, theory and practise are the same, but in practise they never are."

If an academic website is accessible across all its pages, the faculty and staff who contribute to it will all create and post accessible information.
Unfortunately, not all of these content creators are technological wizards. They may lack a basic understanding of web accessibility for people with disabilities.
With them in mind, staff at the CPD's GOALS (Gaining Online Accessible Learning through Self-Study) project developed six accessibility cheat sheets for a less-techy audience. These give advice on creating accessible Microsoft Word documents, Power Points, PDF files converted from Microsoft Word, PDF files created in Adobe Acrobat X, PDF files created in Adobe InDesign, and captioned You Tube videos.
Project GOALS is within the National Center on Disability and Access of Education. It aims to make materials more accessible in higher education, and it's supported by Utah State University and the Center for Persons with Disabilities.
Its cheat sheeets will give laypeople a variety of accessibility tips, including how to provide alternate text with photos so that people who cannot see them will still receive the information they convey. They show how to caption video for people who cannot hear, and how to create columns and tables that will make sense when they are read by screen-reading technology.
You can find more information on the NCDAE blog, which explores the nuts and bolts of accessibility in greater depth.

Cakes With Panache
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
If you've yet to venture into one of the Extraordinary Desserts restaurants in town, then you probably haven't experienced what surely has to be a feast for the eyes and tongue.
And, if you have, then you know what I'm talking about. Thanks to a new cookbook by Karen Krasne, the genius behind the two Extraordinary Desserts restaurants in San Diego, as well as the creator of the fabulous confections they offer, you can now have your cake and eat it, too!
The cookbook, "Extraordinary Cakes", is divided by seasons, and features photos and recipes for cakes boasting such evocative names as Passion Fruit Ricotta Cake, Lemon Praline Torte, Strawberry Poppy Seed Cake, Chocolate Nirvana, Versailles, and Love Is Chocolate. Her trademark—which is what makes these delicacies so breathtakingly beautiful and truly extraordinary—are the flowers and edible gold leaf she uses to adorn them.
Recently, I had the opportunity to chat with Krasne about her cakes, her must-have ingredient, and her pursuit of a spiritual life.
How long have you been baking and how did you discover your talent for creating and decorating extraordinary deserts?
I'm from a family of bakers. As early as 11, I'd cook with my mom, aunts, and grandma, who all loved to bake. Some of my first desserts included apple dumplings and caramel cheesecake. It was fun for me and everyone loved my cooking. In college, while I was pursuing a degree in nutrition, I found a part-time job working for a bakery in Honolulu. I enjoyed it so much, it led me to study pastry-making at the Cordon Bleu in France.
Please share something many may not know about you.
I'm shy, and I love to be alone. I also love quiet time, to be far away in the world, in a secluded locale. Two weeks of being anonymous, helps you get to the true essence of who you are. My husband understands my need to travel solo once a year, and is very supportive.
So, you travel by yourself? For women who might be more hesitant to do so, what's your secret?
Thanks to my parents, I am fearless about traveling on my own. I started when I was 14. At 15, I went to Mazatlan with three other girls and we rented a condo. Dad would tell you I walked to a different rhythm, that I was an older soul. I wasn't a saint, and I was somewhat reckless. But I was very intuitive about character, and my parents knew they could trust me. It's an adrenalin rush to land in places like Cambodia or Morocco. These trips are filled with spiritual growth and can be so stimulating.
Aside from the basics (flour, baking soda, etc.), what is the one ingredient you must always have on hand?
I highly recommend keeping on hand many different kinds of chocolate—milk, dark, extra dark, white, light milk, etc.
Any trade secrets or helpful hints for baking?
My recipes can be complex, with many steps involved, so make sure you have all the ingredients measured and weighed out before you start cooking. Review the recipe a few times, so you don't get lost. Map it out.
Is there any ingredient that you've been dying to try in a dessert or are curious to find out how it would taste in one of your confections?
I've dabbled in many flavors. I don't get too esoteric, trying weird things, like cheese and chocolate. That's not what my clients want. I have played around with yuzu (about the size of a tangerine) from Asia; and matcha tea, a green tea from Japan. We do have a tremendous number of clientele that like this.
Your cakes are like a work of art, as if they belong in a museum. If they were to be displayed, what collection do you think they'd most fit in and are there any painters' who inspire your work?
I decorate my desserts with flowers from the South Pacific, so I'd say Gauguin. Also, Monet and other artists inspired by the Giverny Gardens. Each year, I make sure, too, to visit San Diego's Art Alive, a celebration of floral interpretations of great art. It's very inspiring.
In your estimation, what would be the perfect meal to go with one or any of your cakes?
I'm a strict vegetarian, and I like to eat healthy. Light picnics are one of my favorite meals. You don't feel guilty about eating dessert afterwards. I serve food fresh, so I don't use the oven much (except for cakes, etc.). I love tomatoes, cauliflower, salads with strawberries, steamed veggies, tofu, pesto, and brown rice.
Name three famous people, dead or alive, who you would love to invite over for cake and conversation. What would you serve?
(Comedian/actress) Sandra Bernhard; (renowned author and mind-body healing pioneer) Deepak Chopra; and my daughter, too, who is eight years old, as I'd want her to meet my heroes. I'd serve a three-course dessert buffet. Best to add my husband. I can't possibly leave him out!
Where do you find your bliss?
When I'm walking along the ocean, or doing yoga. Also, a day off with my husband and daughter. Finding my spiritual moments. Now, that's bliss.
What book are you currently reading?
I'm reading two. The End of Illness by Dr. David Agus, which is all about preserving our health and happiness, and Living with Gratitude: A Journey That Will Change Your Life, by Angeles Arrien. This is a wonderful book; I've given several away as gifts. For each month of the year, it tells you what's going on in the universe. I just read April, all about spring, greenery, and flowers. A great book, with sweet messages.
What do you hope people will take away from your desserts and your cookbook?
I hope my cookbook helps people learn something new. It's easy to read and shows them how to make the actual cakes we sell in the restaurant, so there's lot of enjoyment after all the hard work. At some level, I hope my desserts bring people pleasure that they haven't had otherwise.

My research focuses on decadal-to-millennial/local-to-regional scale reconstruction of past climate and environmental variability accessed from alpine glacier ice cores. I utilize high-resolution analysis of multiple chemical parameters (e.g. stable isotopes, major soluble ions, trace elements and radionuclides) to date and establish proxy records for spatial and temporal reconstruction of multiple climate and environmental parameters including: atmospheric circulation, temperature, precipitation, aridity, and atmospheric chemical composition. My research regions include Asia (China, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia), South America (Peru and Chile), Antarctica (South Georgia Island) and Europe (Sweden).
My research interests also include human dimensions, such as climate change adaptation and mitigation policy. I worked with the Union of Concerned Scientists (USC) on their 2014 Climate Impacts Report Encroaching Tides: How Sea Level Rise and Tidal Flooding Threaten US East and Gulf Coast Communities over the Next 30 Years which focused on projected tidal flooding in U.S. East and Gulf coast communities. Additionally, I am very interested in how climate science is being introduced and taught in secondary education. I co-created and conducted a statewide survey of middle and high school teachers to assess the prevalence of and attitudes towards climate science in the classroom and created educational resources based on the findings.
I actively work to share climate data with the public through educational brochures, blogging, and other forms of public outreach (K-12 and community groups). I've created and developed the website Ice Core Perspectives, which intends to introduce climate science to the public in an approachable way. I have been involved in several joint Climate Change Institute-Computer Science department projects including the development of p301, a cyber-infrastructure software for climate data, the 10green application, an air quality assessment website and mobile application, as well as a virtual reality environment, Data Visualization of the Earth's Radiation Balance, created in collaboration with the Virtual Environments and Multimodal Interaction (VEMI) Lab. Recently, I have begun working with the World Ocean Observatory on their World Ocean Aquarium, a virtual gaming experience for students ages 10 through 18.

My Mum offered to make some crocheted beads for me after we saw some in Hobbycraft (otherwise known as my favourite place ever).
When they were done I threaded them onto some ribbon to make a necklace.
My Mum also tried making one using a ping-pong ball but I can't decide if it looks too big as part of the necklace.
So I took it off to have it like this.
And I also tried spacing out the beads for a different look.
Which one do you prefer?

The Office of Technology Assessment, a congressional research agency, reports that the United States has substantially reduced its estimates of the nation`s oil and natural gas reserves. The primary reason is the failure of offshore deposits to live up to earlier expectations.
The report warned that as economic recovery and cheaper prices stimulate energy consumption, the U.S. will be forced to import more and more of its supplies, possibly as much as 7 million barrels of oil and 3 trillion cubic feet of natural gas a day by the end of the century.

Feedback from owners has provided Beneteau with knowledge to further perfect the Oceanis concept. The Oceanis 440 is enriched with the technological advances of Beneteau's Research Department. The Beneteau Water Shield System places an impervious shield between the gelcoat and the laminate. This innovation prevents the penetration of water and the potential for osmotic blistering of the hull. Beneteau uses a structural grid system in the construction of the hull to provide maximum stiffness, as well as correct rig and keel load distribution. The Oceanis 440 was designed for maximum performance with minimal effort. Her bulb keel with winglets gives optimum lift and stability, plus all the benefits of shoal draft. She is equipped with an in-mast mainsail furler and genoa furler, which make sail setting and stowage child's play. Side decks and cockpit are completely clear of tracks, winches and maneuvering lines making movement around the deck easy and safe. Once the anchor is set for the night, the large cockpit table becomes the center of social activity on board. If a dip before dinner would feel nice, simply open the transom gate and her swim platform with ladder and shower awaits. The standard interior is cherry, with the option of teak. All wooden surfaces are protected by three coats of varnish. Molded companionway steps with non-skid inserts provide safety underway. Ample light and air enter through the many ports and hatches. The galley features a three-burner propane stove with oven, a double, stainless steel sink with mixing faucet and cutting board. The top loading freezer and front loading refrigerator are lined with stainless steel and provide 7.3 cubic feet of storage.

State board considers fundraising
LANSING, Mich. - The State Board of Education might get into the fundraising business by forming an education foundation and public/private partnership arrangement, according to a report from Michigan Information & Research Service Inc.
Money from the project would go toward the state's education programs and services, MIRS reported. Board members discussed the idea at a meeting Tuesday, where member Nancy Danhof said, "It is necessary for staff to be able to do what needs to be done because of declining revenues," according to MIRS.
Board member Casandra Ulbrich said, "Many others have gone the private/public partnership route successfully and it makes sense for us to do it as well," MIRS reported.
The fundraising effort is one of several priorities the board is considering, according to MIRS. Others include: "re-imagining" the pre-K-12 system to meet student achievement goals, improving teacher preparation, high school reform, and improving academic achievement at all levels with an emphasis on high priority schools and students, the report said.

iWork VP Roger Rosner Taking Charge of Apple's Digital Textbook Initiative
The Wall Street Journal reports that Roger Rosner is the executive in charge of Apple's digital textbook tools. Rosner is a Vice President for Productivity Applications at Apple, such as Pages, Numbers and Keynote. He joint Apple in 2001, prior he was CEO of Bluefish Labs, a software development firm that Apple purchased.
Prior to working on the textbook service, Rosner was in charge of Pages, Numbers and Keynote -- Apple's iWork suite of office applications. Jessica Vascellaro writes for the WSJ:
Mr. Rosner's involvement is a sign of how strongly Apple intends to emphasize textbook creation, in a move to change the type of educational content that exists on the market. It also underscores how as textbooks—and all media—goes digital, it is increasingly important for tech companies to get media companies to create digital content with their software or in formats compatible with their services and devices.
Whether Mr. Rosner, whose LinkedIn profile pegs him at Apple for more than a decade, will take the stage on Thursday remains unclear. If so, audiences may remember him from Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this past June, where he demonstrated features of iCloud, the company's online syncing and storing service.

Photo of the Day: Internet Thinks Australian News Anchor's Neckline Looks Like a Penis
It' only been a few days since a pilot drew a penis in the sky in Florida, and another phallic phenomenon has already taken over the Internet.
The above screenshot of Network Ten anchor Natarsha Belling was posted to UNILAD's Facebook page this past weekend, and it has since blown up and been shared on a number of different news sites around the world.
It was also trending on Facebook.
"Once you see it, you cannot unsee it…" UNILAD writes in the caption.
Unfortunate for her, but true. You will never not see a penis on Belling's neckline.
No response yet from her on Twitter.
So far 2015 has been a good year for viral outfits. Which will you be wearing this Halloween? The white and gold dress, blue and black dress or penis jacket?

WASHINGTON – The White House yesterday sent nearly 10,000 dyed Easter eggs to a local food kitchen after the annual Easter Egg Roll was canceled because of rain.
"I guess tomorrow will be a peeling day," said Susan Callahan, project director at the D.C. Central Kitchen, a charity that feeds about 3,000 poor in the District of Columbia each day.
She said 25 volunteers will make egg salad out of the hard-boiled White House Easter eggs."It will be nice if somebody donated a boatload of mayonnaise – and onions and celery," Callahan said.
The White House expected 40,000 people to come to the annual Easter Egg Roll, a popular open-to-the-public event in which kids get to roll dyed eggs with spoons across the South Lawn.
Instead, thousands of kids and their parents waited in long lines outside the gates for an "excellent tour of the White House," said Ashleigh Adams, a spokeswoman for First Lady Laura Bush.
President Bush shook hands with a few kids when they arrived.The egg roll dates back to James Madison's presidency (1809-1817), when it was held on the Capitol grounds. In 1878, President Rutherford B. Hayes moved the roll to the White House.
The last time it was canceled was 1984, also because of rain.
