25 Y&R's Whole Egg theory
An internal agency announcement made in 1972 by Ed Ney, then president of Y&R International, puts Young & Rubicam at the vanguard of industry practice on a topic that remains decades later much debated. Describing the agency's approach to offering integrated services-not just advertising but direct, PR, sales promotion and others-Mr. Ney refers to it as "the Whole Egg." During the mid-1970s, Y&R buys numerous companies specializing in non-consumer advertising marketing disciplines, such as healthcare communications shop Sudler & Hennessey and direct response agency Wunderman, Ricotta & Kline. The name and the concept catch on. In the three decades following the "Whole Egg's" introduction, Y&R revises its go-to-market strategy for integration several times. In the 1990s, for instance, the agency says its structure is "wired" to best deliver solutions, with the creation of teams to bring a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach. But the practice of integration, where one agency meets all of a client's needs, has been difficult to achieve: Compensation and turf battles have precluded a full embrace of one-stop-shopping.
24 Levittown opens; suburbs mushroom
Levittown is both a place and a symbol. Levittown the place is the 17,000-house cookie-cutter suburb that Bill Levitt starts building in October 1947 in a Long Island potato field. People who couldn't buy a home because of the housing shortage during World War II jump at a chance to buy their Shangri-la.
Levittown also is shorthand for the postwar mass suburbanization. By the mid-1950s, Levitt-style subdivisions are sprouting up across the country. The suburban population spurts by 43% between 1947 and 1953; it also holds a disproportionate amount of income. The concomitant rise in consumerism is a boon for marketers, as new homeowners load up on appliances, automobiles and other necessities for out-of-the-city living. While artists and social critics denounce the suburbs as soulless places-remember folk singer Pete Seeger droning on about "little boxes made of ticky tacky"?-they have become home to a powerful block of consumers.
23 Communications Act of 1934
With the passage of the Communications Act of 1934 in June and the creation of the Federal Communications Commission, all forms of communications are placed under one jurisdiction. The first seven-member FCC convenes in July 1934 and immediately signals to broadcasters and advertisers that it's willing to do business with commercial interests. In exchange for FCC favor, the networks and stations must make the commission look good by offering significant "public interest" fare. This comes out of the nets' own pockets for the most part through unsponsored public affairs and educational programs. But it's worth it because it preserves radio as an ad-supported medium.
The FCC generally limits itself to technical and antitrust matters. It decrees FM as the audio component of TV in 1939 and orders the breakup of NBC in 1943. Its "fairness doctrine" also helps make "balance" a hallmark of public issue coverage.
The judicial basis of FCC "indecency" censorship is laid in 1978 in FCC vs. Pacifica Foundation. The FCC acquires an intermediate censorship weapon in the form of fines (or threat of fines), which some believe today is as arbitrary as the concept of "indecency" itself. Seventy years after its founding, the FCC under Chairman Michael Powell finds itself a central player in the controversy over "values."
22 African-Americans enter ad industry
African-Americans establish an entrepreneurial presence in the advertising industry in the 1940s. In that decade, Vomack Advertising, in Inwood, N.Y., is established. In 1943, David Sullivan opens the Negro Market Organization in New York; also that year, Fusche, Young & Powell launches in Detroit. Other black-owned shops open: Former magazine illustrator Vince Cullers founds an agency in 1956 and wins acclaim for campaigns such as one for Johnson Products' Afro Sheen hair-care products.
Other black-owned agencies include Burrell Advertising in Chicago, Don Coleman Advertising in Southfield, Mich., and Mingo Chisholm and UniWorld Group in New York. Success varies: Burrell and Coleman in the 1990s sell to holding companies Publicis Groupe and True North Communications, respectively, while Mingo Chisholm in 2004 files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Oakland, Calif.-based independent Carol H. Williams Advertising, founded in 1986, expands to include offices in Chicago and Detroit; Byron Lewis founds UniWorld in 1969 because no white-led agency will hire him. He's still chairman-CEO of the shop, now 49%-owned by WPP Group.
Yet at large agencies, African-Americans' progress over the past half-century in reaching upper ranks is mixed. In the 1960s, an investigation by the New York City human rights commission finds that agencies' hiring and promotion of minorities lag other industries. In 2004, the commission again begins investigating agencies' minority employment record, spurred by charges that advertising hasn't kept pace with other categories such as financial services and law. In 2003, WPP's appointment of Ann Fudge to lead Young & Rubicam makes industry history, the first African-American woman to head a major agency. At Publicis, Starcom MediaVest Group boosts Renetta McCann to CEO of Starcom North America in 2004, making her one of the highest-ranking black females in media.
21 Nader and the era of consumer advocacy
Consumer activist Ralph Nader graduates from Princeton and later Harvard Law School. While at Harvard, Mr. Nader gets interested in the auto industry and observes that car companies built for style and cost but focused little on safety.
Mr. Nader leaves college to become a lawyer in Hartford, Conn., but soon moves to Washington, D.C., as his interest in consumer advocacy grows. He moves from social critic to political activist. His 1965 book, "Unsafe at Any Speed," prompts new legislation in the National Traffic & Motor Vehicle Safety Act, passed the following year. He also helps influence numerous other pieces of legislation that protect consumers, taxpayers and the environment, including the Clean Air Act and the Freedom of Information Act. In 1971, Mr. Nader sets up Public Citizen, which spawns a number of consumer-oriented subgroups, or "Nader's Raiders."

Click Here – Braised Hoisin Beer Short Ribs with Creamy Mashed Yukons and Sesame Snow Peas on the Food Network.
3 pounds beef short ribs, about 10 ribs
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
10 to 12 garlic cloves smashed
1-inch piece ginger, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch slices
12 ounces non-alcoholic beer
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 cup hoisin sauce
Creamy Mashed Yukons, recipe follows
Sesame Snow Peas, recipe follows
Season the ribs generously with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy pot with a lid (Dutch oven) over high heat. Brown the ribs on all sides, in batches if necessary. Remove the ribs and pour off all but a couple tablespoons of the rendered fat.
Return the pot to the stove, lower the heat to medium and saute the garlic and ginger for about 3 minutes. Add the ribs back to the pot. Add the beer and the vinegar. Stir and then cover and simmer for 2 1/2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
Pour the hoisin sauce over the ribs, move the pot to the oven, and cook, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
Remove ribs and ginger from sauce. Strain fat from the top of the pot so that you're left with just the good stuff. Serve with Creamy Mashed Yukons and Sesame Snow Peas.
Creamy Mashed Yukons:
3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 cup half-and-half
Salt and pepper
1 bunch chives, chopped
Boil potatoes until fork tender. Heat the butter and half-and-half over medium heat until hot, but not boiling. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pot and mash with a hand masher. Add hot liquid to potatoes and whip with an electric hand mixer until smooth. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add chives and mix before serving.
Sesame Snow Peas:
1 pound snow peas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Salt and pepper
Rinse the peas and trim off the ends. In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the oils and heat. Add snow peas and saute until bright green, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and toss.

Hello everyone. Hello friends and families. My name is Jomer, and I will be the team blogger for the next five weeks. To put a face on my name, I'm that guy with the weird smirk in between Estelle and Ciantelle 🙂
Well, how do I start? I don't really know how. The past ten days has been a whirlwind of challenges and emotions that are uprooting us from the core. I also don't know how to sum up all our experiences in words, because words aren't enough to convey all that we have been through. "Being chosen by God to be here" are words that are often thrown out a lot here, but sometimes we feel like we are at the wrong place. Sometimes, we feel like heroes wanting to save Oakland from all its perils. Sometimes we feel so emotionally drained that all we want to do is sleep. And sometimes we feel like no one else could be the most inspired people in the world. We really are under different weathers at different times. So I guess to sum things up: we are a mess. Let me give you a quick outline of how this happened.
On Day 1, June 19th, orientation started. Students from different parts of northern California and Nevada convened at Harbor House (HH) at Oakland. I wasn't there, but I'm sure excitement mixed with anxiety filled the air.
On Day 3, June 21st, the first battle began. All students underwent a simulation of an immigrant worker's life. The purpose was to be given a glimpse of the hardships and struggles of their daily labors – strenuous muscle activity, supporting families from minimum wages, and experiencing workplace discrimination and abuse. Jason worked as a day laborer to garden for 8 hours. Marilu and Ciantelle were hired as housekeepers for the same amount of time. At the end of the day, they were "paid" with imaginary money that were deducted with certain "expenses" that immigrant workers pay for in reality, such as medical insurance. Ciantelle ended up sleeping outside HH because after the deductions, she wasn't able to afford the "rent."
On Day 5-6, June 23-24th, "single stories" are dangerous. In simple words, "single stories" is like having a single perspective on things, rather than being aware of the full context. We learned about how there are only single stories of the Native American history of California, and the gentrification movement washing over the urban areas of Oakland. We learned about owning up to one's ethnic identity.
Also, one favorite quote – "Doing nothing or staying in a neutral position is the same as being the perpetrator of the problem."
On Day 7, June 25th, orientation ended. We are shaken, confused, and overwhelmed. We are doubtful, feel partially knowledgeable, and inspired.
On Day 8, June 26th, first day at work. Ciantelle, Marilu, and I participated in a protest outside DMV, where we denounced the implementation of biased issuance of driver licenses to undocumented immigrants. We also got interviewed by a news reporter that very same morning. Afterwards, we had a very emotional and tear-jerking orientation at CLUE. On the other hand, Estelle and Jason went through orientation at College Track and received their (very) specific job schedules. They have their own stories to tell.
On Day 9, June 27th, we had discussions about educational inequities. We learned about how some students in Oakland treat education as a lifeline from "death." We learned the importance of survivors of underserved educational systems and how they become the pioneers of generational change in their communities.
We divided into gender-specific groups and discussed how our own genders have played out in our society. The men talked about how we have/have not used our male privilege to uplift our sisters, while the women shared stories about how they have become subjects of gender-based injustices.
It was also Jason's 21st birthday. He was smothered with love by the whole BayUP family. He said that this birthday "was one of the best he's ever had." We also had an elbow-licking game going on. You'd think that we would be mature enough.
Today, June 28th, was Sabbath. Marilu and I went to Jack London Square to "breathe." Ciantelle went to the library and unsuccessfully tried to take a nap after. Estelle had her alone time to think. Jason went to Lake Merritt and read a book about Sabbath. We all went to an observatory at 9 pm and got a glimpse of Saturn and Mars thru their high-tech telescopes. We also shared (jelly) flan after.
I gave you very limited glimpses of how our days looked like, but what I'm really unable to include were all the emotions and thoughts running in our minds during all those times, partly because we had trouble discerning what God was telling us during those moments. To be honest, we don't know if we have fully grasped the gravity of all that we have received and absorbed from the past ten days.
It's an understatement to say that we are going through a lot. Ciantelle has been angry, Marilu has been withdrawn, Jason has been confused, Estelle has been contemplating, and I have been upset. However, despite all these, I know that we have one thing in common: we are all healing and finding our new identities in God in some way. God is putting us through very uncomfortable and tough situations, but we know that through those, He is slowly transforming us into people who are more able to bring His Kingdom to Earth. So while we are apprehensive and restless in the spirit, we are persevering in this journey because we all rest in the fact that at the end, the fruit of it all is worthy.
P.S. I want you to know that we are healthy and still do have fun! Please continue to pray for our wellness and strength of the spirit. Love lots.

While many were left stunned by the announcement that the President was awarded this great honor just nine months into his presidency, everyone recognizes the peace summit he worked so hard to bring about will undoubtedly have a long and historic impact.
Who can forget Professor Gates' comments immediately after the summit, "We hit it off right from the beginning. When he's not arresting you, Sergeant Crowley is a really likable guy."
The "Beer Summit", as it has since been aptly named, brought representatives from the liberal elitist professors and the blue collar law and order crowd together for the first time. President Obama, using his Divine inspiration, requested the two groups join him for a beer in the White House playground and work out their differences.
President Obama addressed the nation at approximately 10:30 am EST this morning to address this great honor.
The transcript of that speech follows:
Hello everyone – how's everybody doing today? I'm here in the White House Rose Garden to speak to you about the Nobel Peace Prize I have just been awarded. I am greatly humbled by this justly deserved award. I would like to thank Professor Ga....

Maybe I was spoiled on my first national tour, but this company is a handful.
Just be prepared for a SHIT ton of work, long hours, and little sleep. They take care of your hotels, but there's no per diem. So, that $500/wk goes pretty quickly when you're buying meals everyday. And, they pay you bi-weekly. That's right, so you only wind up clearing 800 every TWO weeks.
The associate director we had was amazing! She had gone out on tour with this company like 4 or 5 times, so she knew what we were going through. The entire company fears the artistic director and producer, and you can feel that every time they enter the room.
Rehearsal pretty much feels like an understudy rehearsal process. "Go here, turn, lift up hand, now speak." You must know that going into this rehearsal process, or you'll actually pull your hair out.
Once you're out on the road, the manual labor is definitely taxing, but you do develop muscles you never knew you had.
Overall, it's the people that you're working with that make or break your experience. The company is not the best, but if you have great people with you, then it makes it that much better.

This is as bad as drunk driving here in Australia it is illegal to text and drive.
Why? Because a distracted driver is a dangerous driver, if your looking at your phone instead of the road you could run into someone, or hit someone crossing the road.
Anything bad happens you will waste extra time reacting because you're distracted.
You look when you cross the road so why not look when you drive on the road?
We have this law in Australia. It is illegal to text or use a phone when you drive. If you do then you will get a fine and lose points on your licence, if it continues you will lose your licence.
Distracted drivers are one of the biggest kills on the roads.
And ultimately not a lot changed. I personally still see plenty of people texting while driving.
Although I agree that a law should be in place restricting it, perhaps we should do something else for enforcement. It's hard to enforce, and yes it risks lives. I cannot think of any great solutions, but perhaps someone else will.
Texting, not unlike talking on the phone, divides your attention AWAY from the task at hand, making you less aware of those on the road around you and thus increases the chances of a potentially lethal car crash. Where I live, a car recently blew up because there driver was texting, lost control, and crashed into a light post at the perfect angle to cause critical engine damage. Think about that.
I think Florida should because it is very unsafe to text and drive. Many people have been killed because of texting and driving. It is dangerous for the driver and other passengers in the car. If you're driving and texting you're not aware of other things around you because you're too focused to your phone. You could run a red light or not notice a car stopping in front of you.
According to the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI), 3/4 of the states that enacted laws banning texting while driving, or allowing police officers to pull over people while texting and driving, saw an INCREASE in car crashes. Why? The data shows that before such laws were enacted people who would text drive would do so in a manner in which they held their cellphone on top of their steering wheel, allowing people to still see the road ahead of them. After the new no texting while driving laws were put into place, people would then text with their cellphone in their lap so they would not be as easily caught. The outcome then became that drivers had their eyes COMPLETELY off of the road, hence increasing the possibilities for accidents.

A savory mélange of ethnic influences from the Mediterranean, Gaia promises a lovely dining experience prepared by soft spoken owner and chef, Eran Rozen who has nourished a twenty-year dream to open a restaurant.
Flanked between Adonia Tea House and the Fish Café on 41st Avenue at East Boulevard in the heart of Kerrisdale, the unassuming Gaia Bistro lives up to its name in its simple décor, pleasant ambiance and reasonably-priced peasant fare. It is comfort food that truly feels like a home-cooked meal.
Since first cooking for his Bar Mitzvah guests, Rozen has had a long love affair with food, testing his culinary mettle as a cook at several Vancouver kitchens and attending the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts. He decided the time was right when he and his wife and business partner Naama chanced upon the location.
Aesthetically, the counter service and self-serve drinks fridge gives the impression that it is more of a lunchtime thing. However, the dinner menu stands alone and makes for a great family outing (there is a small kid's corner), a unique, casual first date spot or a sensually-rewarding dinner for one.
The perfect meal opener is a pitcher of water flavoured with lemon, mint and rosewater or orange-blossom which is both refreshing and cleans the palette before the first bite. Rozen shouldn't hesitate to scrap Coke Zero and bottled water from the menu as they are inferior beverage alternatives.
A sampling of teasing tasters: tabouleh with the punchy crunch of pomegranate, smooth and well-roasted baba ganoush served with warmed whole wheat pita, Greek salad with generous chunks of feta if the tomatoes are a bit pulpy. The chicken ragout was cooked to near perfection: the meat fell off the bone and the carrots dissolved.
Unquestionably, the best time to go is now as Rozen is getting creative with his alternating menu, travelling to the farmer's market in Richmond to source organic vegetables and buying up seasonal and specialty items to use in a variety of dishes. What is most admirable in his approach is that in fine-tuning his menu, he lets himself be guided by taste buds of his loyal regulars, what he calls "the process of learning the customers." Get in while the getting is good: as one of the only Mediterranean restaurants in the area, it is sure to have a waiting list in the coming months.
In honour of Rosh Hashanah, he used pomegranate.
Shawarma is marinated with pomegranate juice and a little bit of wine; fresh herbs and our sandwiches are also marinated with pomegranate. So for me, if it's in season, I am using them everywhere. In about one month from now we won't have pomegranate – it is so good, so healthy, he said.
The brick red and Dijon walls are decorated with striking photographs taken by Rozen in his photography career – a Bedouin woman making labne and two shots capturing the bustle of the Shook marketplace in Jerusalem – set the down-to-earth tone that Rozen is intent on creating.
That's why we choose the name Gaia, she was the goddess of earth, the mother earth and that's what we want to give the customers the feeling that they come into a family business, it's a nice, cozy place, and the food is like that: you feel like you're coming home, he said.
The future of Gaia could be a thriving community gathering place: an art gallery featuring Middle Eastern foodscapes, live music that accompanies the exotic food and spills out onto the sidewalk to those dining at the wrought iron tables and chairs.
But for now, his plan for winter is to delve into rich hearty ragouts and slow cooked casseroles and to concoct a window-steaming warm punch. He served a deceptively sweet Turkish tea whose only ingredients are apples and a cinnamon stick.
The item that brings people coming back is the Imam Bayildi, a dish that was presented to a Turkish Imam (sultan) in the 16th century that was so amazing it caused him to faint (bayildi). The dish is pan-seared eggplant stuffed with roasted vegetables and raisins with a Turkish yoghurt sauce.
Rozen has focused on providing a variety of gluten-free meals including a polenta dish filled with goat cheese, arugula, pear and honey; pan-seared pani filled with basil, feta cheese and fire roasted peppers.
We just ran out of it today, so I think tomorrow I'm going to make it again, Rozen said.
Gaia opened at the end of June and is open six days a week from 11 to 8 Monday to Friday and 9 to 8 on Saturday. They are also available for event catering and offer take out.

Media release: LGNSW congratulates Bluett award winners
6 December 2017
Port Macquarie-Hastings Council and Bland Shire Council have been named NSW's most progressive and innovative councils at the Local Government NSW (LGNSW) Conference in Sydney today.
Port Macquarie-Hastings Council was selected as the 2017 Metropolitan/Regional winner, while Bland Shire Council took out the Rural Category of the state's oldest and most prestigious local government award.
The A. R. Bluett Memorial Awards were established in 1945 to recognise the greatest relative progress of high-achieving councils in NSW.
They commemorate Alfred Robert Bluett, who served 30 years as the Secretary and Solicitor to the Local Government and Shires Associations of NSW.
As an authority on local government law, Mr Bluett was instrumental in drafting the state's first Local Government Act in 1919.
"This award recognises a standard of excellence and innovation that should be the goal of all public service, in all spheres of government," LGNSW President Keith Rhoades said.
"On behalf of LGNSW, I congratulate the elected representatives, General Managers, council staff and communities of both Bland Shire and Port Macquarie-Hastings on these well-deserved awards."
Clr Rhoades, in one of his last duties as outgoing LGNSW President, noted the high standard of entries across the board, and commended each and every council that had submitted an entry.
"There can only ever be two official winners of the A. R. Bluett Awards each year: one in the Rural Category and the other in the Metropolitan/Regional Category," he said.
"But the real winners are the communities who benefit from the hard work and commitment of their elected representatives and professional staff in the local government."

Hello my fellow males my name is Steven Smith, and I am very proud to welcome you to my store Eco. Black Objects. My team and I worked very hard to get these doors open, and ever since, our business has done nothing but excel. Here at Eco.Black Objects we have the most sexual black objects that you will see. Men love coming into this store because they are able to drool until their tongues cannot possibly salivate anymore.They drool like dogs over all the brown naked objects we sell here. We sell objects from the lightest shade of brown, to the sexiest shade of black the human male mind can imagine. Each object ranges from different prices, which is why our sexy pieces of chocolate have nothing but price tags on them. I mean, that is all they are worth. Sometimes if the male customers are lucky, we will let them test out the objects right then and there to make sure it will give our customer the best pleasure it can produce. After all, the customer is always right.
Sometimes when we get an overload of inventory from Africa, we have an everything must go sale. We might even let the men get a 2 for 1 deal if we want the extra cash. One model that is hot and trending on our shelves right now is the Big Bottom 3000. You have the choice of how big and round you want your object to be, and how submissive you wish it to be. Here at Eco. Black Objects we like to ensure that our customer is leaving with a very satisfied euphoria, and arousing feeling. After the male customer is done checking out the object he claims, then it is time for checkout. Men love checking out these objects from head to toe, to make sure that it will be able to please the male's desired duties.
We will have our best cash register ring you up named Johnny Dominant. Once he is done bagging your object, then you are free to take your special treat home and do whatever you please with it. Personally as manager, I get a huge discount. So that means I take advantage and go through a different object every single night. All these objects have the best money can buy from their beautiful melanin exterior to their luscious curves that they are created with. My personal favorite is the Black Chick 2000 because it comes with the roundest pair of breasts money can buy, and the biggest ass I have ever laid eyes upon. There is such a variety of beautiful black objects that a man can possibly never ever get tired of them. I never get tired of checking these objects out myself. What can I say, I am a man, and this is a man's store.
Thanks to me and my brilliant mind, black objects are now being sold all over the world. Men just can't get enough of these black beauties.I constantly hear complaints from useless wives complaining about their husbands spending too much time here rather than at home. Well my advice for those wives is for them to come over themselves and become a black beauty since they want to attract their men so much. It will be a win win for everyone. In fact, they should be supporting their husbands decisions. No wonder why these men turn to my store. I created this store to give all men a chance to have their sexual desires taken care of with the best my wallet could invest in, and I am truly glad that I am the reason that men will never have`to go a single day without feeling aroused. The women are useless, pointless, and are not worth anything since my black beauties have arrived. Well I got to go restock my shelves, but thanks for shopping at Eco. Black Objects. I hope to see you again!

Ben Carson Backtracks on Comparing Slaves to Immigrants: '2 Entirely Different Experiences'
Dr. Ben Carson is walking back the comments he made Monday where he suggested slaves came to America as immigrants.
In his first speech as President Trump's secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Carson left social media boiling with outrage after suggesting immigrants "came in the bottom of slave ships."
"There were other immigrants who came in the bottom of slave ships, who worked even longer, even harder, for less, but they too had a dream that one day their sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters, great grandsons, great granddaughters might pursue prosperity and happiness in this land," Carson said.
Hours later, Carson took to Facebook to clarify his words.
He wrote: "The slave narrative and immigrant narrative are two entirely different experiences. Slaves were ripped from their families and their homes and forced against their will after being sold into slavery by slave traders.
"The Immigrants made the choice to come to America. They saw this country as a land of opportunity. In contrast, slaves were forced here against their will and lost all their opportunities. We continue to live with that legacy.
"The two experiences should never be intertwined, nor forgotten, as we demand the necessary progress towards an America that's inclusive and provides access to equal opportunity for all."
Carson, a brain surgeon and former GOP presidential candidate, was addressing employees at the government department when he made the original comments.
House and Urban Development spokesman Brian Sullivan tried to clarify Carson's remarks later on saying, "Nobody here believes he was equating voluntary immigration with involuntary servitude."
Reaction was swift, with many eager to criticize Carson for his comments.
Michael Eric Dyson appeared on CNN Monday night saying: "This is one of the most atrocious acts of historical revisionism."
On Twitter, Chelsea Clinton posted: "This can't be real."
This can't be real. Slaves were not & are not immigrants. 2017. https://t.co/8CuUvnR2Mf
— Chelsea Clinton (@ChelseaClinton) March 6, 2017
The Wire actor Wendell Pierce jabbed at Carson via social media, tweeting an image of a slave that was whipped with the words, "An immigrant's dream, @SecretaryCarson?"
An Immigrant's Dream, @SecretaryCarson? pic.twitter.com/Lty61RkEce— Wendell Pierce (@WendellPierce) March 7, 2017
Perhaps the most heated comment online came from actor Samuel L. Jackson who posted: "OK!! Ben Carson....I can't! Immigrants ? In the bottom of SLAVE SHIPS??!! MUTHAF***** PLEASE!!!"

Educational Articles
Many bird owners are surprised to learn that all pets, including their birds, need an initial visit by an avian veterinarian and at least an annual checkup (many veterinarians recommend checkups at least twice a year, to allow for early detection and treatment of potentially life-threatening diseases.)
The underlying philosophy of all alternative medical therapies is the 'holistic' approach, in which the patient is treated as a whole being rather than as a collection of organs and parts. The patient is treated as an individual rather than as a diagnosis, and the treatment is determined by the way that he or she is responding to illness.
The West Nile Virus (WNV) is transmitted by the bite of a mosquito (primarily Culex species) that is infected with the virus. The mosquitoes become infected after biting birds carrying the West Nile Virus.
Veterinary care seems expensive. Here are some of the reasons behind the costs of veterinary care, and some things that you, as a pet owner, can do to help make it affordable.
In the spring and summer, it is not unusual to encounter a baby bird on the ground. The immediate response of a kind-hearted human is to take the little orphan home and then try to figure out what to do with it.
The purpose for clipping a bird's wings is not to prevent flight completely but to ensure the bird is unable to achieve or sustain upward flight and to prevent escape, unwanted roaming and exposure to dangerous situations. It is not desirable to produce a bird that will free fall and potentially cause harm to itself.

Pattern: Baktus
Before starting a project, read through the entire pattern text. If there is something you do not understand, this pattern may not be for you. I do not offer pattern support on my free patterns.
This is my version of a scarf or kerchief that was all over the Norwegian blogs in 2008.
The principle is to take one or a couple of skeins, and knit a triangle using your exact amount of yarn. A good way to use up one of those single skeins of sock yarn in bright colours.
It works with any kind of yarn, but I prefer a less than bulky yarn.
I used one skein of Hello Yarn sock yarn.
Choose needles that go well with the yarn you use.
To be able to know when I had used up half of my skein, I used a scale:
I weighed my yarn before casting on. Weighing the skein every now and then, I started decreasing when I had about 50% of the skein left.
How to knit:
Cast on 4.
Row 1: Knit 1, YO, knit the rest of the row.
Row 2: Knit, make sure you knit the YO through the back loop.
Rows 3 and 4: Knit.
Repeat rows 1 through 4 until you have used up half your yarn, or until your scarf is 50% of desired length.
Then decrease 1 every 4th row:
Row 1: Knit 1, knit 2 stitches together through the back loop. Knit the rest of the row.
Rows 2, 3 and 4: Knit.
When you have 4 stitches left, bind off.
You can increase and decrease in a number of ways, use the ones you like.
If you do this in stockinette, you will have a Karius scarf instead of a Baktus.
Karius and Baktus are two characters in a Norwegian children's classic.
Comments are closed on the patterns to keep the pages as tidy as possible.
If you wonder about something, please read through the comments to see if you find the info you are looking for.
The patterns are free to use, but please respect that the copyright belongs to Norway Needles, i.e. do not use the patterns for commercial purposes or publish them on the net or otherwise, without my explicit permission.

a study in pink{eye}.Monday, November 18, 2013
I was MIA last week on a count of a week's vacation that I was either using or losing. So I packed my bags and and headed to my cutie great Aunt Judy's new place in Connecticut for a few days of shopping and relaxing. Unfortunately, only 24 hours after arriving-- and on our first shopping date in ages-- I got pink eye. Literally, we're in the middle of shopping at this total dreamboat of a mall by her house and I had to rush passed all of these amazing stores and straight to Urgent Care. I've never had this ailment before so it was definitely an experience. In short: a total, disgusting nightmare.
But I'm practically 100% at this point and my monster eye has gone away. On top of a day of great shopping that we got in after I got meds, I also got to see my great aunt and uncle.We had 2 nights of late night chats over coffee that ended around midnight; it really was lovely, despite the gross pink setback.
And here I am! Back from the dead (and with both eyes to see out of)! Have you missed me as I have missed you? :)

Bad News for Toyota? – the Detroit 3 are Back
…the Detroit 3 are returning to the midsized-car segment…
I'm tossing out back issues of Automotive News to try to fit into a corner office with more windows but less shelf space. I know, crocodile tears for this academic with his shelf-filling collection of books and journals. Anway, one headline caught my eye: "What can save the Detroit 3? Cars!" [a John K. Teahen, Jr. editorial from Sept 18, 2006, p 16].
The context was the near-exit of GM, Ford and Chrysler from the car market, which decreased monotonically from 89% of their sales in 1965 to 35% in 2005, while (correspondingly) trucks went from 11% to 65%. Now admittedly trucks were incredibly profitable on a unit basis, while small cars were a necessary evil, intrinsically unprofitable but needed for CAFE (the Corporate Average Fuel Economy mandate). But the decline at the Detroit 3 was disproportionate to the shift towards light trucks in the over US market.
One point is that ambitious designers, engineers, and senior managers all want to be associated with halo the ka-chenk of good bottom-line vehicles. Teahen argued that the Chevy Impala remained a potential money-earner, with hoped-for sales a bit above the 296,000 of 2006. In fact, on a platform basis, output was higher – 500K – reflecting the multiplication of nameplates that were in fact the same basic car, but the implication of the editorial was that it wasn't making much money. And even with the shift of the overall vehicle market towards light trucks, such sales pale besides the 1-plus-million mark hit of 1965. GM wasn't putting its heavy hitters on car projects.
I've argued before on this blog that Toyota lavishes undue attention on the Prius and on the Lexus marque, again reflecting the status of these projects within the company as a whole. Reputedly Toyota's working to correct that bias, devoting more effort to the 2012 version launched in December 2011. Time will tell if it is better executed and better selling.
Today, however, the Detroit 3 are a factor. They have very different cost structures, with the removal of the millstone of legacy costs from around their neck, a function of the aging of workers "retired" under pre-2007 restructurings, the impact of the VEBA and (for GM and Chrysler) additional costs shed under bankruptcy. Labor is no longer a fixed cost. They thus no longer need to maximize revenue [which for you economics junkies is also implied by the low marginal price of labor]. Instead they can aim to make money from cars. We see that in reduced incentives, reduced fleet sales — that is, higher prices — and a normalization of residuals. (I can't speak of leases — I lack knowledge and suspect that option continues to suffer from the aftershocks of the financial upheaval of 2008-9.)
What does that imply for those who remain focused on cars, particularly Toyota, Honda, and Nissan? On the one hand, they ought to benefit from less discounting. On the other hand, they are hurt by reinvigorated Detroit 3 products. The latter, I believe, dominates: from Toyota's perspective, they have two new, heavy-weight competitors in GM and Ford (and in some product categories, a 3rd in Chrysler), and while Hyundai has been around for a while, sales of the Sonata are only now such as to represent a major slice of the mid-size segment of the Camry and the Accord. If you've become a bit sloppy dare I say arrogant? the sudden appearance of new competitors can be very painful.
My prediction thus is that Toyota (and Honda) will resort to greater discounts and higher fleet sales. That should be good news for new car buyers. (Car renters will have greater choice, but price may not budge much, better residuals will work against higher initial acquisition costs for Enterprise and their rivals.) But since Toyota relies on exports from high-yen Japan for Lexus and (to a lesser extent) the Prius, they've taken a major hit to profits on that front. I'll leave it to financial analysts to pour over segment results of the major players, particularly Toyota, to see if the new competition means their US profits take a hit as well.

There's nothing like a good coffee to kick-start the morning! And with the number of people that come to Dose Espresso for their daily dose of caffeine, you can be sure that they serve a good cup.
The cafe is constantly full with streams of people getting takeaway or sitting down and enjoying a long brekkie. The exposed brick, mismatched furniture and bare lightbulbs give an industrial hipster vibe to the cafe – but there's barely a hipster in sight with most of the customers being families, groups of middle-aged friends and young and old couples.
Every time I've visited Dose, I've tried to order the crushed avocado, haloumi, roasted tomato and pesto on sourdough ($14), and every time it has been sold out. It's a testament to their popularity, but it also means that I have to settle for something else. Not that there's anything wrong with the bacon and egg roll which has two free range eggs, bacon, tasty cheese and tomato relish on toasted schiacciata. It's Sir D's go-to dish and never disappoints.
For more bacony goodness, try the brekkie toast which has bacon, tasty cheese, mayo, tomato and rocket on toasted schiacciata. It doesn't have eggs but it's my pick of the breakfast offerings with the fresh tomato and rocket lightening up the otherwise heavy filling.
The coffee here is good, so good that a friend from Melbourne who tasted the coffee here claimed that it was "just as good as Melbourne coffee" – and then proceeded to order another cup! But if coffee isn't your thing, there's always the organic Belgian hot chocolate which is made with real chocolate and is deliciously moreish. As much as I love my coffee, I've taken to getting the hot chocolate at Dose because it's just that good.
The lunch menu offers more sandwiches and this Better than a Reuben! sandwich comes with roast beef, sweet gherkin, dijon mustard, onion jam and rocket on sourdough. It's got all the components of a Reuben but is a bit lacking in the roast beef department, and doesn't have the same juicyness of other Reuben sandwiches.
The chicken sandwich is a winner though with a chicken breast, garlic mayo, celery and walnut filling with tasty cheese and rocket on quinoa and soya sourdough. It's creamy with plenty of chicken and a bit of crunch from the celery and walnuts.
For the sweet tooths out there, there's wholemeal crumpets with Nutella. Slather on the Nutella thickly and watch it ooze into the warm, chewy crumpets – and enjoy!

Petrol prices have been an issue for many years because of their many fluctuations. State Audit of Vietnam has completed the results of an audit in 2014 and identified some shortcomings when it comes to pricing.
Many major petrol importers have not fully complied with regulations on import quotas and stockpiles. State Audit of Vietnam has requested the government direct the Ministry of Industry and Trade to inspect and appropriately deal with these firms.
As for electricity bills, State Audit of Vietnam is also considering looking into the pricing structure as high bills have shocked many citizens this year. "One of the criteria we base our audit plans on is that the issue is one that society cares about," said Mr. Dao Van Dung, Head of State Audit of Vietnam. "As it is only one criteria we are still considering the matter and a detailed plan will be finished by December 31."
Unlike petrol, electricity prices have only recently been seen as a problem due to increases in early summer that included a multiplier method. Since July 1, Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) has started recording electricity meter readings and bills electronically.

See Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs in Danny Boyle's Upcoming Biopic
"No one sees the world the same way you do."
These are the dark, daunting words pitched against an optimistic and unwavering Steve Jobs at the climax of an intense and even mysterious trailer for the upcoming movie, which juxtaposes Jobs on stage and under the lights while fellow Apple execs are seen apprehensively waiting in the shadows.
Steve Jobs is set to release on October 9, 2015, shortly after the four-year anniversary of the Apple co-founder's death. Written by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network) and adapted from Walter Isaacson's biography, the intensity of this first trailer isn't surprising given director Danny Boyle's previous work on films such as 127 Hours and 28 Days Later.
We've seen Michael Fassbender deliver before in movies like Inglourious Basterds, Prometheus, and 12 Years a Slave, but it's safe to say that the pressure is on as he portrays the late great icon of the counterculture. Will the signature black turtleneck sweater and round wire-rimmed glasses be enough to transform Fassbender into the enigmatic inventor the world knew as Steve Jobs?
Will the turtleneck sweater and wire-rimmed glasses be enough to transform Fassbender into the inventor we all knew as Steve Jobs?

The Concept Lab within the Centre for Digital Knowledge studies the architectures of conceptual forms. It is committed to the view that concepts are not equivalent to the meanings of the words which express them. The Lab considers conceptual architectures as generating structured environments for sensing that one has arrived at understanding. Through computational methodologies it seeks to describe and analyse these structured environments which have both internal and external manifestations. With respect to the internal structure of concepts we aim to characterise not only form and function but also modalities and other attributes of conceptual entities. In the case of external features we seek to uncover the conceptual networks within which concepts circulate. In both cases the Lab develops data driven accounts of these structures and networks derived from large scale corpora.

Car smashes
An Ardagh family had a lucky escape on Sunday morning after a car crashed into their house.
Well-known Ardagh couple, Mary and Peter Whitney of Croshea were asleep in the early hours of Sunday morning when a car careered off the main Ballymahon/Athlone Road and struck their home causing severe damage to both car and house.
Miraculously no-one was hurt in the crash and the driver walked away from the vehicle.
But the incident left Mr and Mrs Whitney traumatised, particularly after they initially feared that their son and daughter-in-law were hurt or involved, because they had not returned from a night out.
"It was three in the morning and we were sound asleep, when the next thing was, I heard an unmerciful bang," Mrs Whitney explained. "Then I heard this really loud music and lights were flashing all over the place. My son Cathal and his wife June were staying with us; I ran into the room and they were not there so I panicked."
She went outside to investigate and found that a car had crashed into the front of their house, sending their sitting room window inwards and cracking the external wall. The driver, a man from Northern Ireland, then emerged from the car virtually unscathed.
"A couple in a white van had stopped to help and they called the gardaí," continued Mrs Whitney.
"Then the driver of the crashed car came out of it and was unhurt, thank God for that. He was terribly shocked but okay apart from that. Bricks and mortar can be replaced, but life cannot," Mrs Whitney added. "Thank God nobody was hurt."

Pedro celebrating the second goal / PHOTO: MIGUEL RUIZ-FCB
Barça stretched their lead at the top of La Liga with a 1-4 win at the Benito Villamarín tonight. Goals from Neymar and Pedro in the first half and a brace from Cesc after the break mean Gerardo Martino's side go into the international break with yet another win under their belt and a three point cushion over second place Atletico Madrid, who were held to a 1-1 draw in Villarreal. This wasn't as straightforward a win for Barça as the score might suggest though, with a brave Betis side never giving up and the worrying sight of Leo Messi limping off in the first half. Heroic Valdés With Atletico's game finishing before the match in Seville began, Barça knew that a win would put them in the perfect position going into the international break and give then the psychological edge the coach had demanded earlier in the week. However, it was Betis who created the chances early on, with the excellent Victor Valdes saving the day with two great stops from Jorge Molina and Juan Carlos, as the team struggled to deal with the loss of Messi - replaced by Iniesta on 20 minutes. Two quick goals Once Valdes had done his job, it was the turn of the rest of the players to lift the team and a defence splitting pass from Song put in Cesc, who laid on Neymar's opener. Just a minute later, Pedro made it two after breaking through the Betis defence to shoot past the keeper. Cesc brace The goals took the wind out of the home team, who even when they could make some chances again after the break came up against Bartra – who put in a perfect performance - and unluckily for them, the woodwork, which Juan Carlos rattled with a powerful effort. It wasn't Betis' day though and their tactical decision to try and chase the Barça midfield just gave Pedro, Neymar Jr and Cesc space to exploit. It was just a matter of when rather than if the third goal came and finally –after Neymar had missed a great double opportunity on the break - Cesc was set up by Montoya down the left to fire home, doubling his tally soon after with a header from a pinpoint Alves cross from the other flank.
With the game safe, Martino gave Tello and Sergi Roberto some game time and in injury time Betis managed a consolation goal from the penalty spot through Jorge Molina after Alves brought down Matilla, but with the three points secure and their lead extended, it wasn't enough to spoil the win for Martino's Barça.
