Mary Don't You Weep: Memorable Moments From Last Night's Scandal
Last week's episode was a throwback and therefore the pacing was slowed down quite a bit. But last night, the drama came in quite strong. With bomb threats, Huck losing it and Mellie winning last night's battle in the war, it went down. Let's jump in.
Jake's Scruff
Ya'll already know I'm all about Team Jake. Ideally, Olivia would be by herself until she gets herself together; but if I had to choose between Jake and the president, it's Jake, easy. And last night just reaffirmed what I already felt. Even though homeboy looked like white Jesus shortly before he was crucified, the fineness still shone through. I had to ask the Tweeties if I was the only one feeling this facial hair. I wasn't alone. He looks good with that beard…
Mellie comes for Fitz' Manhood
Typically, we're half way into the episode before Mellie and Fitz start going at it. But last night, the jabs came early. The fact Mellie clowned Fitz' wang within the first 15 minutes had me weak. I told ya'll last week that I love when he checks her, but when she gets ready to fire back, she comes with it. And last night, she was on. Fitz had to fall silent. Poor Teddy's just sitting there observing his parents' severe dysfunction.
The Bomb Threat
A mother's intuition is no joke. Mary Smith who originally presented herself as Olivia's client, actually had a more dramatic and dangerous plan in mind. She strapped a bomb to her chest and held up to 9 people hostage as she attempted to convince the FBI to open up her son's file. She didn't realize just how close she was to death before Olivia raised the curtain and revealed herself.
Harrison & The FBI
I could not believe Harrison thought he was actually going to get a response from the FBI by hollering over a barricade. The FBI is not going to respond to a screaming black man. Stop it! Then he was nearly convinced, by another agent, that Mary's son was indeed a terrorist.
David Plays Cyrus
When was the last night we saw someone stand up to Cyrus and actually convince him to do what they've said. Well that was David Rosen last night. He put that white hat on and marched in there and demanded that the file be opened. Cyrus was all set to insult and then dismiss David before he started reading the names of the FBI agents who had been mysteriously promoted.
Would You Lie?
When the file was opened, Fitz personally got on the phone and tells Olivia what the contents revealed. Turns out, Mary was right. Her son, Chris, was not a terrorist. In fact, he was, as Fitz called him, an American hero who had infiltrated a terrorist organization and was spying on them. Somehow, the FBI didn't know this and killed Chris. He had recruited several other spies to join other terrorist groups and if the nature and details of his death got out, the lives of all the recruits he'd brought on would be in jeopardy too. So that meant Olivia couldn't tell Mary the truth about her son. Instead, she outright lied to her telling her, her son was a terrorist. Of course Mary fell out.
Mary, It Ain't Have To Be Like That
I was too hurt when Mary decided to take her own life. Clearly, she was emotionally unfit but had the truth about her son been revealed she would have never strapped a bomb to her chest or killed herself. But on the flip side, if Olivia told her the truth and she decided to walk out of that room, she still would have done some jail time… quite a bit in fact.
Huck Comes For Daddy Pope
From the top of the episode, Huck had made up his mind to kill Daddy Pope. But when he finally stood in front of him, face to face, he couldn't do it. Rowan/Eli just walked away. But before he dipped out, he told Huck that he had a man inside who he could kill instead. Of course, it was quite disturbing to see Huck kill someone who hadn't done anything wrong. But it's also the first time we've seen the gravity of Huck's desire to kill. It's like a hunger or the urge to have sex. Once he's made up his mind, he has to do it.
Mellie's Happy Olivia Lived
Baby, Mellie brought it last night. After everything was said and done, Fitz walked in on her drunk and still drinking. He assumed that she was saddened by the fact that Olivia didn't die in the bomb threat. Mellie let him know that wasn't the case. She delivered the best speech of the night. If you missed some of the words, this is what she said:
"I'm celebrating because Olivia Pope still walks this Earth. She's still alive. And as long as she's still alive? Well, she's your flaw, your Achilles heel. Which makes her my weapon. She's the strings that, if need be, I will pull to make my puppet husband dance. So cheers, baby! Drink Up! I live to fight another day!"
Woop! Fitz didn't have much to say after that.
Did You Kill My Father?
Somewhere along the line, Olivia gathered that Huck took off work to attempt to kill her father. When she comes back to the office and sees him sitting there alone, she asks him if he did. Huck, clearly disappointed with himself, says that he couldn't bring himself to do it. After all the ways that the Commander has ruined his life, alienated him from his family and gotten him into the business of killing, he still has a sick power over him. And that broke him down.
He Owns Me
Huck isn't the only one who's in the palm of Rowan's hand. When Olivia sits down at the of the day, she admits that both and Jake are under her father's reign. And then she drinks the wine her father introduced her to.

Staph infections
6-minute read
The staphylococcus aureus (staph) bacteria is a relatively common type of bacteria that usually doesn't cause any harm. However, a staph infection can occur when the staph bacteria enters the body and multiplies.
What is a staph infection?
Around one third of people carry staph bacteria either on the surface of their skin or in their nose, and in most cases it does not cause any problems.
However, if it does enter the body the bacteria might multiply, which could lead to an infection.
There are many different types of staph infection, ranging from boils to blood poisoning, and some are resistant to common antibiotics.
Who is at risk of a staph infection?
Anyone can develop a staph infection, but some people are more prone to staph infections than others. Those who are more likely to develop infections include:
- children and infants, who may develop an infection known as 'school sores' (impetigo) when they start attending daycare, preschool or school
- people with a weakened immune system, such as those with HIV/AIDS or those taking medications to suppress their immune systems
- people who regularly have medical equipment entering their body, such as during kidney dialysis or when using catheters, feeding or breathing tubes
- people who have been in hospital for a long time, due to their contact with healthcare workers and proximity to other sick people.
How do I get a staph infection?
There are several different types of staph infection. Infections that occur on the skin can be passed on by air, food or contact with someone who has a staph infection, or by touching a contaminated surface.
Staph bacteria may cause an infection if there is an abundance of it on the surface of the skin or if it enters the body through broken skin such as wounds, cuts or grazes.
You can also become ill from staph aureus food poisoning if the food you eat is contaminated by staph bacteria.
Staph skin infections
Staph infections on the skin include impetigo, wound infection, cellulitis and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS). You can learn more about this type of infection in the healthdirect staph skin infection article.
Invasive staph infections
Invasive staph infections are far less common than skin infections, but are usually more severe. There are many types of invasive staph infection and you can learn more by reading our invasive staph infections article.
How do I avoid getting a staph infection?
Staph skin infections
In most cases you can avoid developing a staph skin infection through basic hygiene. Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and running water and dry them with a clean towel, or disposable paper towel.
In particular, wash your hands:
- before and after touching or cleaning an infected area
- after going to the bathroom
- after blowing your nose
- before handling and eating food
- after handling animals, including domestic pets.
If you live with someone who has a staph skin infection you may be able to avoid developing the infection by:
- not sharing any personal items with them such as toothbrushes, towels, clothes and linen
- washing your hands immediately if you come into contact with them
- ensuring their bedding and towels are cleaned daily, with hot water and bleach, before their infection disappears.
Invasive staph infections
If you are at risk of developing an invasive staph infection, it is important to have a healthy lifestyle, maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, minimising alcohol and avoiding smoking and illicit drugs.
Washing your hands thoroughly after going to the bathroom, before and after preparing food and after being in a crowded area can also reduce your risk of developing the infection.
Staphylococcal food poisoning
You can avoid food poisoning by ensuring that high standards of food hygiene are maintained throughout the cooking process.
When cooking, keep hands, work surfaces and cooking utensils clean.
Wash hands before preparing food and after:
- going to the bathroom
- touching raw food
- touching bins
- handling pets.
Avoid handling food if you are ill, particularly with stomach problems or if you have open sores and cuts.
Cooking food properly
Meat should be cooked right through.
If you reheat food, make sure it is hot all the way through. Never reheat food more than once.
Chilling food properly
Food needs to be kept at the right temperature to prevent harmful bacteria from growing and multiplying. Food that needs to be refrigerated should always be stored in the fridge, which should be set at 0-5°C.
Always check the label on the packaging for the correct storage instructions.
Cooked leftovers should not be left out to cool for more than an hour before being put in the fridge or freezer.
Avoid cross-contamination
Cross-contamination occurs when bacteria is transferred from one food (usually a raw food) to another food.
This can happen when the contaminated food is in direct contact with the other food, or when bacteria from contaminated food is spread through hands, utensils or work surfaces to other foods.
You can avoid cross-contaminating food by:
- always washing your hands after touching raw food
- storing raw foods separately from other foods
- storing raw meat in sealed containers and keeping the containers at the bottom of the fridge, so that it cannot leak onto other food
- using a separate chopping board for raw food and other food, or washing chopping boards thoroughly between uses
- cleaning utensils thoroughly after using them for raw food
- not washing raw meat or poultry, since washing may spray harmful bacteria around the kitchen.
You can read more about preventing food poisoning here.
How are staph infections treated?
Most staph skin infections are treated with a course of antibiotics.
Simple ones can be treated at home. Serious ones need to be treated in hospital with intravenous antibiotics and other treatments.
Antibiotic resistance
Some staph aureus is resistant to many antibiotics. Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) has a strong resistance to an antibiotic called methicillin and can cause severe infections that cannot be treated using most antibiotics.
With the development of MRSA, doctors have become more cautious about prescribing antibiotics, and people have been warned against taking them unless there is a clear need. Doing this will help reduce the risk of bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.
You can read more about MRSA here.
When should I get help?
If you suspect that you have a staph skin infection, it's important to see your doctor as soon as possible.
Severe staph skin infections, like staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS), may need to be treated in hospital.
Invasive staph infections could be life threatening. If you have symptoms of an invasive staph infection, see your doctor as soon as possible or call triple zero (000) and ask for an ambulance.

AMATEUR RADIO (HAM) - No Ham Radio equipment is provided. Any licensed Amateur Radio Operator wishing to install equipment should discuss it with the captain.
CELLULAR TELEPHONE SYSTEM - A Uniden model CP-1100 cellular telephone is installed in the ship's Communications Center. Under favorable atmospheric conditions the unit will provide good service up to one hundred miles off shore. The unit may be used for either voice or facsimile communications and it is available for personal use as well as ship's and scientific business.
DATA COMMUNICATIONS - The ship has two primary methods for transmission and reception of data; Inmarsat and single-side band. The method of choice for data communications is effected through the unique marriage of an IBM PC and a single-side-band, high-frequency transceiver. What makes this possible is a set of hardware and software collectively referred to as "pakratt." Users can type their own messages on their own PC's using any word processor or editor. When ready, a user saves his text to a floppy disk (5 1/4 or 3 1/2 inch) as an ASCII (or DOS) file. The floppy is then brought to the bridge where the mate on watch will transmit the message. Traffic is routed through the radio station WWD, from where it is forwarded to the addressee. Only business traffic can be handled in this manner. Other means are available for handling traffic of a personal nature.
DIRECTION-FINDING EQUIPMENT - A Simrad-Taiyo, TD-L1620 Automatic Digital Direction Finder (ADDF) is located on the bridge. It is a highly accurate system (+ or - two degrees) used for tracking or locating any VHF source operating between frequencies 110-170 mHz. Its maximum range is about 10 n mi. It can automatically track up to 10 instruments at once. For compatibility your transmitter needs to send a two-second pulse to work with the Simrad system.
DOPPLER SPEED LOG - A two-axis Doppler Acoustic Speed Log, Furuno, Model DS-50, 440KHZ, 3 Beams, Measuring range Fore/Aft -10 to +40kt, Port/Starboard -9.9 to +9.9kt. Readouts are located in the bridge, after control room and main lab. In addition a digital output can be provided for scientific or navigational equipment requiring these data. The format is 200 pulses per nautical mile.
ECHO-SOUNDING SYSTEM (NAVIGATIONAL) - Two depth finders are carried for navigation. Also see ECHOSOUNDING in Section IV.
- The first is a Data Marine Inc., International Offshore System 3000, Digital Depth Sounder. It operates on 120 kHz at 80 W-RMS and has a range of 3 to 999 feet.
- The second system is a Furuno FPG-512-H, Paper Graph Fish-Finder/Fathometer.
It operates on 15 kHz at 2 watts. Its range is from 0 to 2000 fathoms, but is most effective from 0 to 500 fathoms.
FACSIMILE EQUIPMENT - A Harris/3M model 2110 facsimile machine is installed in the Communications Center. It is normally left hooked up to the Inmarsat terminal for auto reception of incoming faxes. When necessary, it can be rigged to the cellular phone for reception and transmission of faxes. The ship is also equipped with a Furuno FAX-214 facsimile machine with built in HF receiver. This machine is used for reception of weather faxes, other meteorological information and NAVTEX (navigational warnings) messages.
GENERAL COVERAGE RECEIVER - An ICOM model IC-R71A/E/D digital, programmable receiver is installed in the communication center. It has a distribution network installed that allows it to supply a signal to the bridge, after control room, or library. It is hooked up to the long wire antenna to give it excellent range and signal quality. See the captain for special use requirements.
GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM - A Trimble 10X GPS/LORAN-C receiver is located in the chartroom. Keyboard/display units are installed in the chartroom and aft control. Outputs from the 10X are RS-232 and are routed to a dedicated navigation PC in the chartroom and the SAIL system in the upper lab. A third output is routed to the main lab where it can be plugged in to a terminal or PC or other equipment supplied by the user. The 10X can store 100 waypoints and provide and compute a multitude of navigational parameters and solutions. Output data can be formatted and customized to suit the user's needs. The 10X gives priority to GPS and will switch automatically to LORAN-C if GPS becomes unusable or unavailable. GPS or LORAN-C can be used alone if necessary.
GYRO COMPASS - The bridge is equipped with a Sperry MK-37 high-speed gyro. It provides a stepper signal to conventional (compass card type) repeaters located in: the bridge and both wings, the after control room, and main lab in addition to gyro input for the radars and satellite navigation systems. Also a digital system provides displays in the bridge, chart room, master and chief scientist staterooms, and the upper lab. Outputs in synchronous or stepper format can be supplied to the SAIL Data System or other scientific computers or instruments in the upper lab.
HAND-HELD RADIOS - The ship normally carries two portable Standard Horizon model HX200S marine radios. They are carried for internal communications and small-boat operations.
HF/SSB COMMUNICATIONS - Two high-frequency, single-side band transceivers are carried on board. One, a Harris 230M, is stationed on the bridge and is utilized as a watch receiver; that is, it continuously monitors 2182 kHz - an international calling and distress frequency. The second, an ICOM M800, is stationed in the communications center and is used mainly for routine traffic with WWD, our radio station at Point Loma. The ICOM is also used for communications with other ships and shore stations and will handle data as well as voice traffic. If your operations will require communications on nonstandard frequencies, ensure that the captain is informed of this before the ship gets underway.
INTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS - Three independent systems are available for internal communications. It is important to note that not all spaces on the ship are equipped with all three systems. Some spaces are served by only one system.
- Telephone system: Use as you would any normal telephone. A station directory is posted next to each phone.
- Sound-Powered Telephone: This type of system is unique to ships; it is designed to work even during times of power outage. Dial in the station you wish to call and crank the handle several times. Or, briefly depress the buzzer button for the station you wish to call. Depress the button in the handset to talk and to listen.
- Intercom: A voice-actuated intercom serves many spaces on the ship. Once a station is called the operation is hands-free. Depress the button for the station you wish to call and talk; switching of the mike is automatic upon talking. If ambient noise levels are too high at one station, switching may not occur and an alternative comms system may have to be used.
LORAN-C NAVIGATION SYSTEM - (see Global Positioning System)
RADAR SYSTEM - The radar system consists of the following:
- FURUNO model FAR-1622X, 3 CM. radar, located on bridge.
- FURUNO model FR-1262S, 10 CM. radar, located in chart room.
- FURUNO model FAR - 1622X, ARPA Collision Avoidance System, located on the bridge. This system allows the mate on watch to automatically keep track of up to 30 separate targets and determine their relative danger.
- FURUNO model RJ-3 Interswitch Network, allowing the radars to be cross-connected in case of a failure.
- FURUNO model CD-140 Color Display Unit, located in the After Control Room. This display is a slave from either radar allowing the mate to monitor traffic.
SATELLITE COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - The ship is equipped with a JRC model JUE-45A Inmarsat system. This system provides high-quality, world-wide voice, data and facsimile communications. The system is networked to telephones located throughout the ship, and access codes can be obtained from the captain. Inmarsat is a commercial service and users are responsible for any charges they incur through use of the system. Charges are due and payable, in cash, to the captain prior to arrival at the next port. It is highly recommended that scientific users who anticipate using Inmarsat make recharge arrangements with the captain prior to getting underway on their cruise. There is a pay phone in the upper lab that accepts major credit cards. Charges range from $6.94 - $10.00 per minute (depends on when the call is made) with three-minute minimums for voice communications.
TRANSIT SATELLITE NAVIGATION SYSTEM - One Magnavox model 4102, single-channel SAT-NAV is located in the chart room. It has an accuracy of about 1-2 n mi. between fixes and .5 n mi. immediately following fixes. It is primarily intended for navigation during transits but is equipped with an RS-232 output to the SAIL Data system for use during rough surveys or when no other system is available.
VERY HIGH FREQUENCY (VHF) SYSTEMS - New Horizon carries three VHF transceivers: two located in the bridge and one in the after control room. The vessel routinely monitors channels 13 and 16. They are all fully synthesized, 60-channel, 25-watt units and one contains a built in scanner to monitor various frequencies. They are primarily intended to be used for bridge-to-bridge communications but also provide an alternate or emergency means of communicating with shore via the Marine Operator, when in range. If you need to place a call to another vessel or shore, permission and assistance can be obtained from the bridge.

Last month, we completed our discussion on how to setup and configure a VPN client to connect to the VPN host we configured the month before. We also outlined some common troubleshooting techniques to help you resolve some of the connection issues you might run into. This month we conclude our discussion by how to access your network resources via the VPN.
First off, we need to make sure that both the host and the client computers use the same Workgroup name. Verify this by going to Control Panel and clicking on System. Look under the section Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings. In Vista, the default Workgroup name is WORKGROUP, but you can change this to practically anything. For Vista PCs, this step isn't absolutely necessary, but it will increase performance, and it's a must if your client PC uses Windows XP.
Next, Vista makes use of two different connection types, Public or Private. Private, as you might suspect, is the setting you want for your home or work network, as it will allow your system to see, and be seen, by other devices on the network. This is the setting to use with the VPN connection.
You should use the Public setting only in unsecured locations (like airport or coffee shop hotspots) to help protect your system from unauthorized or malicious access. This is managed by Vista's Network Discovery function. If your network is set to Private, then by default Network discovery is on. You can verify these settings by clicking Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center and clicking on the down arrow next to the word Network Discovery.
With that now out of the way, we can get started. There are three primary functions available to you when using the VPN: file and folder sharing, remote printing and Remote Desktop.
VPNs are most commonly used for file and folder sharing. This is where people on a network can access and files and folders stored on a networked computer no matter where that computer is physically located. Setting up this functionality isn't all that complicated, but there are a few specific steps you need to perform.
You now have the capability to Share files and folders. However at this point, you haven't configured any shared folders. So let's do that now.
Now if you go to the Network and Sharing Center, at the bottom of the dialog box click where it says, Show me all the shared network folders on this computer. Doing so opens a window showing you all of your shares. The VPN_Projects folder should now be visible.
*Note that if you're using a third-party software firewall (e.g., something other than Vista's built-in Windows Firewall) you might run into some configuration issues. If you do, try TEMPORARILY disabling it until you can isolate the problem.
On the client PC, you need to map a drive to the shared folder. Unfortunately, the odds are you won't be able to browse for the host PC since the VPN won't pass NetBIOS traffic. For this reason you'll need to know the IP address of the Host PC and the shared folder name.
Remember, the IP address is not the global IP address you used to connect the VPN client to the Host PC, but the local LAN address of the PC. If you don't remember the address, you can find it by opening a DOS window on the host PC and typing IPCONFIG. Ours is 192.168.0.101.

London's Main Drainage Booklets
I thought I'd share some front cover images from a few variations of booklet on the theme of London's Main Drainage, produced by a mix of London administrative bodies. I'm unsure how many incarnations of these booklets were published over the years, though I expect it is greater than the five I have.
Anatomy of a Junction: Two
North Western Storm Relief Sewer: Notting Hill After years of dispute and deliberation Joseph Bazalgette (Chief Engineer of the Metropolitan Board of Works) was given a little short of carte blanche to reform London's piecemeal drainage system, the clincher being the much documented 'Great Stink' of 1858. Bazalgtte's intercepting sewers constituted the lion's

Go on an Exhilarating Treasure Hunt All Over Hong Kong
We requested to organise this event as a work team building exercise. It was great fun and definitely appealed to everyone that took part. Our host - Wouter was very flexible in the run up to the event (number of people participating drastically dropped down 2 days before the event), gave very specific directions during the event and was enthusiastic throughout the whole process.
I recommend doing the treasure hunt to anyone as a great way to enjoy visiting Hong Kong or as a team building exercise for curent residents of HK.

New York, NY (PRWEB) March 12, 2008
Ebay's seller boycott of February 2008 calls attention to the scenario of users turning your own platform against you. This case study, produced by 1st2c CGM, looks at the dynamics of this incident of Social Media-Hijacking and addresses the key strategies for managing such situations.
Late January 2008 eBay, the iconic online auction powerhouse, announced changes in fees and policy with primarily effect on selling.
This policy change probably made good business sense for eBay that probably anticipated some seller disgruntlement.
But the Internet-empowered marketplace offers more options than just sharing of protests or mobilizing peers in purely Social Media platforms. Very quickly eBay found T-shirts with slogans like "Boycott FeeBay" or "Don't buy eBay" put out for sale on eBay's own platform…
Regardless of the eventual culmination of the eBay incident, it calls attention to the not-improbable scenario of users "overtaking" open networking or commerce platforms and turning them against their own operator interests. We label this situation: "Social Media-Hijacking".
This case study looks at the dynamics of this incident of Social Media-Hijacking and addresses the key strategies for managing such situations.
Anatomy of a failed user mutiny
Late January 2008 eBay announced it would charge sellers 25%-50% less to list their items on the site but take a larger slice of fees on actual sell of items. At the same time eBay terminated the ability for sellers to submit negative feedback on their customers and impose 21-day holds on transactions in certain circumstances.
These policy changes drove a semi-organized group of "power sellers" who felt shortchanged over the recent changes to mobilize a popular boycott on eBay.
The "backlash" of sellers (mostly Power Sellers) looked like potential crisis in unprecedented dimensions:
- Extensive media coverage for a call for a week of boycott (February 18-25)
- Thousands of discussions in blogs, forums and other Social Media platforms
- More than 60(!) different videos on YouTube with 100,000s of viewings
- And the "hijacking" of eBay's own trading platform to offer eBay boycott T-shirts and even a Kleenex box…
Table 1: Examples of Boycott eBay items put on sale on eBay
But something seems to have gone wrong for the mutineers.
The results of the protest were unclear and much disputed. Online auction trackers such as PowerSellersUnite and Medved reported that eBay's total auction listings may have dropped as much as 13 per cent over the week. But in effect listings returned to normal levels (eBay ran a one-day discount listing promotion the week before).
A deep dive into Social Media surfaces additional insights that shed light on the dynamics of the eBay boycott.
Table 2: Volume trend of talk on the eBay boycott in Social Media
Two key observations that draw attention in Table 1:
- Bloggers (typically playing a critical role in agenda setting) take only minor weight in driving of public involvement
- Public attention nose-dives only two days after official boycott start date
In retrospective, Social Media seemed to have provided an efficient "early reading" of public engagement and of the reasons for the failure of this potential crisis to gain momentum.
Analysis of online consumer dialog provides further understanding of the non-materializing of the eBay crisis:
- Boycotters announced the move ample time before it actually took place, thereby overshooting the peak of public interest and killing the element of spontaneity
- Many sellers saw the boycott as a window of opportunity to improve their listings and sales when key competitors "left their watch"
- Many sellers talked about "absorbing the costs" rather than transferring them to buyers, thereby denying the latter the motivation join the protest
Attention: Social Media-Hijacking scenario
The eBay boycott failed to snowball to a crisis situation for eBay.
However, surfacing of the reasons for that failure does improve our understanding of the determinants of grassroots mobilization in the digital marketplace.
After all, the understanding what doesn't work provide clues to the understanding of what does work.
But the eBay boycott also draws attention to the diversity of interfaces available to users and consumers in open commerce properties like eBay, Amazon, Overstock, etc.
This incident demonstrates the fact that activist users and consumers are well aware and ready to take advantage of interaction and content generation platforms OTHER than those designated for peer-to-peer networking.
Ebay does have a very busy discussion board platform, but "enterprising" protestors attempted to "hijack" its commerce platform - a critical interface with buyer audiences.
Regardless of how successful this particular attempt was it may warrant extra attention from all social platform operators, reputation management and crisis management experts.
What will be the most effective strategy alternative to manage such situations?
1. Mine-sweeping strategy?
(Immediate removal of adverse content and blocking/banning of offenders)
2. Discrediting strategy?
(Denouncement of the unfairness and abusiveness of Social Media-Hijacking)
3. Rationalizing strategy?
(Publicizing information and possibly initiating Social Media outreach work about the reasons and benefits of the move that triggered Social "Media Hijacking")
4. Containment strategy?
(Tolerating such initiatives by allowing them for a limited time period)
5. Ignoring strategy?
(Unlimited tolerating such initiatives)
The answer may well be a combination of strategies or even a changing combination of strategies depending on the particular situation and the dynamic of market response.
In view of the increasingly informed, involved, active and socially empowered nature of consumers in the networked marketplace, decision makers and specialists may benefit from readiness to Social Media-Hijacking situations by mapping of scenarios and evaluating potential actions.

Sony has announced that David Reeves, president, CEO and co-COO of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe and the deputy president of Sony Computer Entertainment will retire as of 30 April.
Reeves joined Sony's European operations in 1995, moving back to the UK in 1999. Sony credits Reeves for "selling millions" of the original PlayStation, PlayStation 2 and PSP as well as being involved in the launch of the PS3 after he was made CEO.
Kazuo Hirai, president and group CEO, says Reeves' contribution has been "immeasurable", while Reeves states: "It has been a wonderful ride with PlayStation".
Andrew House, chief marketing officer and group executive of Sony Corporation, who joined the company in 1990 and has worked in the PlayStation business area previously, has been named as Reeves' replacement.
House will be responsible for managing the PlayStation business across nearly 100 countries in the Europe/PAL territories.
"I'm delighted to return to the PlayStation fold and excited to take on this new challenge", said House.
"I have strong ties to the interactive entertainment industry and I believe there is huge potential for further growth of our business in the Europe/PAL countries and regions, particularly in the area of networked entertainment. I'm looking forward to working with everyone at SCEE and with other groups in Sony to help achieve this potential".

2016: Tottori
Naturkatsastrophen in Japan
The Japan Times, 2016-10-21, AP,KYODO
Homes damaged, power cut after strong quake rattles parts of western Honshu
A powerful earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.6 shook parts of western Honshu early Friday afternoon, damaging homes and roads and cutting power to almost 77,000 households.
The Meteorological Agency said the earthquake occurred at 2:07 p.m. in central Tottori Prefecture, about 7:001am, west of Tokyo, at a depth of 10 km. lt was followed by a weaker aftershock about 30 minutes later.
The agency said there was no danger of a tsunami from the inland temblor.
Okayama City Fire Department said a woman in her 70s was taken to hospital after she fell and broke her right leg. Five people are reported to have been injured in Tottori Prefecture, while others sustained injuries in Okayama, Hyogo and neighboring prefectures, according to police and other sources.
Two houses collapsed in the town of Hokuei, Tottori Prefecture, according to the local fire department. Roads were cracked and roof tiles laid strewn in the town. A number of dwellings in other parts of the prefecture suffered damage.
About 2,700 residents evacuated from their homes, according to local officials.
In Kurayoshi in the prefecture, ATMs at some local banks temporarily went offline due to a power outage.
Around 77,000 households in Tottori and Okayama prefectures were temporarily without electricity, but power was fully restored by around 5:40 p.m., according to Chugoku Electric Power Co.
West Japan Railway Co. temporarily suspended all services on the Sanyo Shinkansen Line between Shin-Osaka and Hakata stations.
The quake registered lower 6 on the Japanese seismic scale of 7 in parts of Tottori Prefecture, and upper 5 in a wide area in Tottori and Okayama prefectures, according to the agency. No abnormalities were detected at the Shimane nuclear plant, which is currently off-line, in nearby Shimane Prefecture, according to the utility. Okayama airport closed its runway to check its safety, airport officials said.

An 86-year-old man from the town of Miasa went missing on Friday but was found near his home on Saturday.
The agency wamed that the area could face more quakes of up to lower 6 on the Japanese seismic intensity scale to 7 during the next week.
The agency said since Friday's quake, more than 140 smaller temblors occurred. Among them, one magnitude-6 quake shook the area, and six with an intensity of 4 were recorded.
Of the houses damaged in Tottori, three were destroyed in the town of Hokuei and 161 partially collapsed near Kurayoshi and Yurihama, according to officials.
As some people sustained injuries due to falling roof tiles, the govemment in neighboring Hyogo Prefecture sent about 1,000 blue tarps to affected areas for makeshift repairs to the roofs.
Kurayoshi has set up a volunteer center to clean up debris.
Around 77,000 households in Tottori and Okayama prefectures were temporarily without electricity Friday, but power was fully restored by around 5:40 p.m. the same day, according to Chugoku Electric Power Co.
"I couldn't sleep at all, due to continued aftershocks" said Masami Taniguchi, 74, who stayed overnight in an elementary school's gymnasium in Kurayoshi with bis wife and some 300 others.
Noting that two major temblors measuring the maximum of 7 on the Japanese scale occurred within days in Kumamoto Prefecture, southwestern Japan, in April, Taniguchi said, "We can't go home because we are afraid of such an event.
Mariko Kawamoto, a 32-year-old housewife, evacuated with her three children, who are between the ages of 4 and 7.
"My kids look all right, but seem to have felt very scared," she said. "I hope the seismic activity will subside soon . ... We want to go home early."

recirculation studies
I am writing procedures for Recirculation Studies for patients with fistuals and grafts. Does anyone have these procedures already written and if so could you pass on to me the particulars of how to and any references you might have. My current research shows two different methods on how to do this. The peripheral stick in conjuntion with the A & V lab draws and the other is utilizing the A & V draws only. I have found conflicting data on when to draw the labs as well as the need to slow the dialysis flow rate down. Any additional information concerning these issues would be particulary helpful to me as well. Thank-you for your help!

We went with the non-peripheral stick method after years of using it. You will find that your patients appreciate not having to stuck. Also, our clientel, as you have noticed, doesn't have such great venous access! So they are difficult draws! We also use Transonic technology to monitor access issues. Good luck!Jul 4, '01Sharon,
Do you use Crit-lines (In-Line Diagnostics) where you work? They are extremely valuable pieces of equipment when you need to establish a new dry weight or challenge an existing dry weight. They are also invaluable when treating acute or trauma patients. Anyway, they also are invaluable for doing recirc studies very quickly without having to stick the patient, waste any blood, or even send any blood to the lab. The out patient centers in my area don't use them but in the hospital setting, our docs love them and so do our patients! In the past, we followed the recirc protocol that can be found in the ANNA Core Cirriculum. Good Luck!

1. Walter Russell Mead is my favorite source for world news. From a recent post on Syria:
Britain's Channel 4 News aired a segment earlier this week that shows Syrian activists faking some parts of videos they broadcast on YouTube. In one instance, activists record themselves asking the international community for help, with black smoke swirling in the background; the activists had set the fire themselves before turning on the video camera.And a post on Mali:
The Tuareg mercenaries of West Africa may have failed to save Qaddafi's crumbling government last year, but they have had one success—toppling the democratic government of Mali, described by the FT as "one of west Africa's most stable countries." According to an FT report, this Tuareg revolt, carried out with weapons brought back from their stint in Libya, surprised many in the international community. Apparently the stable democratic institutions in Mali weren't strong enough to weather the fallout from an unrelated civil war in a nearby country.2.

A Naples, Florida {Bank of America} Branch received a surprising visit from 2 Sheriffs Deputies with a Warning of foreclosure earlier in the month, after the giant bank was negligent in paying back two {homeowners} for legal fees after being found guilty of illegally foreclosing on their home.
The couple, who had got their home with cash, had received notice that {Bank of America} was proceeding with a foreclosure. On receiving the notice the couple straight away employed a defense lawyer who was able to get the case upended in court, and also a judgement against {Bank of America} for reimbursing the legal costs the couple sustained.
After 5 exasperating months of not getting reimbursed for the judgement, the annoyed couple turned the tables on BOA, and foreclosed on their local {Bank of America} branch. Showing up with a Foreclosure notice, 2 deputies, their foreclosure defense lawyer, and a moving truck, it was fairly apparent that the couple meant business.
"This is sweet Justice." said their foreclosure defense lawyer, who had successfully navigated the complex requirements to file a foreclosure against the bank. The unexpecting Bank of America branch in Naples, was caught completely off guard and a local news crew from WINK was there to catch the responses from all parties on film.
The movers came prepared to remove all furniture and whatever assets they could find at the bank. The bank executive, caught totally by surprise, managed to get a check from the behemoth establishment inside almost an hour. The {homeowners} were eventually repaid, although not without a black eye on Bank of Americas slow moving beauracracy that has seemed to plague the mortgage industry in the aftermath of the real estate collapse.
Ironically, it looked like that dept was the one which required the assistance!
Turtle Bay Land Company is a company that specializes in helping house owners stop foreclosure. In business since 2002, they know the way to , and have a proven past record for doing this.

DUBAI (Reuters) - The United Arab Emirates summoned the Qatari ambassador over what it said were insults against the UAE made by a prominent cleric in a broadcast from Doha, state news agency WAM reported on Sunday.
The diplomatic incident reflects growing splits between the two members of the Western-allied Gulf Cooperation Council in their approach to Islamists emboldened by the 2011 "Arab Spring" protests that forced four heads of state from power.
While Qatar has sided with Islamist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, the UAE has taken the opposite tack, cracking down on Islamists at home and supporting Egypt's military-backed administration.
UAE news agency WAM said the foreign ministry had handed the Qatari ambassador "an official protest memorandum over the insolence shown by the so-called Youssef al-Qaradawi towards the United Arab Emirates".
In a sermon two weeks ago delivered at a mosque in the Qatari capital Doha and broadcast by state television, Qaradawi condemned the UAE as a country which was against Islamic rule, UAE media reported.
"We have waited for our neighbor to express a clear rejection of this insolence and to offer sufficient clarifications and assurances for this misrepresentation and incitement against the UAE," WAM quoted UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash as saying.
"But unfortunately, and despite the self restraint and calm approach, we found no desire or response for such a thing from the brothers in Qatar," he added.
"It is shameful that we allow Al Qaradawi to continue his insults of the UAE and the ties (that bind) the peoples of the Arabian Gulf," Gargash said on Twitter.
A source close to the Qatari foreign ministry told Reuters that Qatar could not be held responsible for the views of an individual and suggested that Doha would continue to grant people like Qaradawi the right to express themselves.
"Qatar is a country that allows individuals to express themselves and will not change that," the source, who asked not to be named, said.
UAE media had earlier quoted Qatari Foreign Minister Khaled al-Attiyah as saying that Qaradawi's comments did not reflect Qatar's views.
"The foreign policy of Qatar is expressed and conveyed only through the official channels of the state," Attiyah said, according to the English language Gulf News.

By providing medical care and training, the Alliance for Rehabilitation works to integrate disabled adults into Hungarian society.
Focus: Education, Disabilities, Health, Labour Conditions, Unemployment
Geographic Area of Impact: Hungary
Model: Hybrid non-Profit
Number of Direct Beneficiaries: 702 (2011)
Annual Budget: US$ 5,100,000 (2011)
Percentage Earned Revenue: 3%
Recognition: Social Entrepreneur of the Year, Hungary, 2006
Disabled people in Hungary are often marginalized from society and not supported even in the most basic areas, such as public transportation and access to schools and office buildings. When Erzsébet Szekeres' son was born disabled 35 years ago, the doctor said he would never be able to do anything in this world. She thought otherwise and looked for families in similar situations to form a community. Until 1994, they lived illegally in a "group home" producing ceramics. This community eventually became an official cooperative, which grew and diversified. Today, 620 disabled individuals, including 300 who are severely handicapped, are employed in various fields throughout the country.
Innovation and Activities
The Alliance for Rehabilitation (formerly Alliance Industrial Cooperative) developed a model to tackle the complex problem of integrating disabled adults into society. It first created a community where members felt loved, could interact and work. Later it offered members vocational training to prepare them for real life. Today, the organization runs 22 different businesses, including farming, manufacturing, construction and packaging. Those with vocational skills leave the organization, find employment and start self-supported, independent lives.
The Alliance for Rehabilitation has numerous business relations, serves business clients and accepts jobs from distant locations like Holland and Italy. It generates about US$ 157,000 in revenue, more than half of which is distributed among the workers as salaries comparable to the pay of people in similar jobs in more accepted parts of society. In addition, the organization provides workers with housing to rent and is constructing new building blocks to keep up with increasing demand. The apartments have one nurse for every three units, and are affordably priced. Parents or older relatives may move into larger affordable apartments together with one of the workers to offer them more support.
Despite its revenues, the Alliance for Rehabilitation is 50% financed by the government under a law supporting disabled employment. In the event of grant failure, an emergency strategy has been developed to guarantee the organization remains sustainable and self-sufficient, although salary payments would go to providing free accommodation and food for all members.
The Entrepreneur
Erzsébet Szekeres, a ceramist by profession, acquired all the knowledge needed to help her son and other disabled people through trial and error. She later received a diploma in social assistance and worked for the European Union for three years on an initiative to address the segregation and struggle of the disabled. As head of the Alliance for Rehabilitation, she knows every employee, their names, life stories, disabilities and problems, and often refers them as "my children". She is planning to remain the head of the organization as long as she can before retiring to the home she has created for the members. She is the recipient of: Ashoka Fellowship, 1997; Gold Medal of the Hungarian Republic, 2000; and the Essl Social Prize, 2009.
