Executive Summary:
Dan Holme teamed up with NBC television as the Microsoft Technologies Consultant to help bring the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games to television and the Internet. Microsoft SharePoint was a major part of the platform used to manage the operations that bring the events to the public. He discusses four real-life tasks that he solved by using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007: a custom document management application, a Help desk application, a forms-based content delivery solution, and a transportation management system.
Custom Document Management
I'm often asked, "How can I hook my existing applications into SharePoint to leverage SharePoint's collaboration features?" One of our applications is a custom Microsoft .NET application that—put simply—generates specifications about venues so that engineering and production staff know what types of situations they'll be dealing with. One of the outputs of the application is a PDF file about the venue. In this Games, the application was modified so that instead of storing the PDFs in a traditional file share, the PDFs are saved to a SharePoint document library.
You have several options for saving PDFs to a document library. The most complex and rich method is to use code (or a third-party tool) to generate the PDF on the SharePoint server, then develop custom code using the SharePoint object model to manage document metadata (columns) and manipulate the document library. But there are easier methods. You can email-enable a document library so that email messages with an attached document can be sent to the library, and the library will receive that message and automatically store the document—and, optionally, the message as well. This is one of the easiest ways to extend existing applications: just have the applications email the document to the address of the library. Note that this method effectively populates the document library, but you would need a workflow or other programmatic or manual method to configure document metadata.
You can also use Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) to interact with SharePoint document libraries. Our custom application saves its PDFs to the document library using the URL of the library. WebDAV lets you use standard Windows methods to retrieve documents from a library—you can even map a drive to a document library. Therefore, we also used WebDAV to implement simple document library replication. The PDFs generated by the custom application need to be available on servers in both Beijing and New York. We needed a lowoverhead way to get documents from Beijing, where the documents are generated, to New York, where they are available in a read-only library. We opted to use a scheduled task to launch Robocopy to mirror the contents of the document library in Beijing to the document library in New York.
When you use WebDAV to interact with a document library, you lose metadata richness. So, for example, we can't mirror metadata about a document in Beijing to New York. But metadata replication wasn't a requirement, so by focusing on the core requirement, we found a solution that the team liked and that took less than an hour to implement. If our requirements were any deeper, we would have needed a third-party content replication application.
Help Desk Application
The site templates available out of the box with SharePoint are generic at best. If you need a SharePoint application that supports a specific business task, function, or department, you're out of luck. Out of luck, that is, unless you turn to the Fabulous Forty application templates that Microsoft has developed. Application templates provide a lot of cool, out-of-the-box functionality through custom lists, libraries, workflows, content types, and Web parts. The Fabulous Forty includes templates for dozens of scenarios, including a Help Desk template that we'll be customizing to support the Help desk for NBC during the Games. You can download the templates at www.microsoft.com/downloads/info.aspx?na=22&p=1 &SrcDisplayLang=en&SrcCategoryId=& SrcFamilyId=&u=%2fdownloads%2fdetails .aspx%3fFamilyID%3d5807b5ef-57a1-47cb- 8666-78c1363f127d%26DisplayLang%3den.
In Beijing, we need an application to support the Help desk, which exists for about four weeks and is crucial to operations. But the limited lifetime of the application means that we need an inexpensive, easy-to-useand- maintain solution. We used the Windows SharePoint Services (WSS) 2.0 Help Desk application template in Torino, and we'll be making even more use of the WSS 3.0 version in Beijing.
The template provides a ticketing system that lets our Help desk staff enter tickets, update and track issues, and assign tickets and tasks, which is important because a ticket might cross from one shift to another. The template also lets our Help desk manager monitor progress on tickets and pull reports. I'll be monitoring the template to look for common concerns that we can address with training or through configuration changes to clients and applications.
Because you can extend these templates, we'll add a Calendar list to incorporate our Help desk staff scheduling so that we always know who is on duty and which escalation points are on call. We'll use a Contacts list to store the contact information, and we'll have a mobile access page for that list so that we can get to contact information using a PDA from anywhere on our network.
Content Delivery
If you've paid any attention to the preparations for the broadcast of this Olympics, you'll know that a huge amount of content will be made available over the Web and to your mobile devices. For the first time, you'll be able to watch events from any device and be able to see events and competitors you've never had the chance to see before. In Salt Lake City and then Torino, where NBC expanded its coverage to a broad range of broadcast and cable channels, the sport of curling caught fire. I'm excited to see which sports, countries, and athletes capture our imagination this summer!
To get all that content to the right media outlets, a dedicated video distribution application takes video packages and delivers or streams them. A large amount of metadata accompanies each package—metadata that varies per outlet. For example, the "Title" field can be long on Amazon.com, but must be short for mobile Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) delivery.
Additionally, editors must be assigned to create the packages. To make it possible for mere mortals to enter all this data, preferably before the Games begin, we need a userfriendly interface that exposes just the right data, performs data validation, ensures that required fields are completed, then transforms all this information into the XML file required by the video distribution application. Once again, SharePoint came to the rescue.
Continue on Page 2
We built the UI—the form—by using InfoPath 2007, which allows us to embed the business logic into the form so that when an editor works on metadata for a specific package, the only fields that appear are those needed by the appropriate outlets. The form also makes sure the data complies with the datatype and content requirements of the video distribution application.
So that we don't have to deploy the InfoPath client on our systems, we're using InfoPath Forms Services, a feature of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 Enterprise Edition, to render the forms in users' browsers. When a form is saved, the data is stored in a SharePoint list, and a custom application page uses a workflow to publish the data to the XML format that the video distribution application requires. This application is the most heavily coded application of the four SharePoint solutions I'm describing in this article, and even this application took two smart folks from Net- Fusion, a Microsoft Gold Partner, less than two weeks to create. It would have taken months without the functionality that Info- Path and MOSS provided.
I'll create custom views of the SharePoint list, add alerts, and create Microsoft Excel reports linked to data in the list. These tools will allow editors, producers, and management to perform their responsibilities related to the process. So if you watch any of the Games on a device other than a television, know that SharePoint helped it get to you.
Transportation Management
Speaking of applications that could have taken months to create, let's talk about the transportation management application we developed in just a few days, without ever opening Visual Studio. NBC's thousands of employees, contractors, and vendors need to travel all over Beijing. And you'll know when watching the Games what a masterful feat it is to move team members from point A to point B. The transportation group consists of a handful of talented folks who must coordinate hundreds of rides every day for more than three months and oversee as many as 200 vehicles and drivers. We had to provide a way to make it all easier to manage.
The transportation management application needed to allow any transportation team member to enter information about a ride request, assign a vehicle and driver (a "transfer") to fulfill the request, and enable monitoring and reporting of the transportation group's activities. In previous Games, all ride requests were submitted by phone. This time, we wanted to let users submit requests online. Because SharePoint can use alerts and workflows to notify users when data changes, I wanted the application to notify a user when his or her ride request had been assigned a transfer, so that the user would know which vehicle to look for, when the ride would depart, and who else was going on the same ride.
The challenge with this application began with the data tables. To properly support the application, we needed tables with vehicle information, ride requests, and locations. The transportation team needed to be able to easily pull up information such as addresses, maps, and even photos of buildings. SharePoint isn't built to create or support relational databases out of the box. However, with Microsoft Access as a client, you can create an application that provides, through queries, the ability to relate data in various lists and delivers a rich, form-based interaction with that data. Traditional Access applications had data in tables within the database (.mdb) itself. Many IT pros have learned that you can gain a lot by putting the data on SQL Server or, now, a SharePoint server instead, and use Access only as the front-end application.
There are several ways to build Access applications that are front ends to Share- Point lists. You can build an Access database and use the migration wizard in Access 2007 to move tables to a SharePoint site as lists. Or you can create the lists in SharePoint and pull them into an Access database application as linked tables. I chose the latter method.
Access then lets you create queries and rich forms; any additional functionality you need becomes an Access programming task rather than a SharePoint programming task. For example, I wanted to give the transportation team a way to identify which of the 200 vehicles were available at a specific place and time to fulfill a ride request. This required a fairly sophisticated SQL query, which I built in Access with help I found via my favorite Internet search engine. I also wanted fields to autopopulate data to reduce data entry for users and transportation managers. I accomplished this with simple Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code behind the Access forms. In less than three days, I had a rich application that will support our complex transportation management needs.
But I also wanted to provide some of the "nice to have" functionality for this application. First on my list was a Web form for users to submit ride requests. This was easy thanks to SharePoint Designer. I created a new Web form, dragged my SharePoint list onto the form to create the data connection, then modified the Insert template, which is the form rendered by the server when a user creates a new record. Within an hour, I had the form I wanted.
The next step was to create alerts for users. I created a custom view of the ride request list, called My Rides, which filters the list to look for items for which the Created By field was equal to \[Me\], a special token in SharePoint that translates to the current user. So when I go to the list, I see only my rides, and when another user goes to the list, she sees only hers.
One of the lesser-known features of Share- Point alerts is that when you create a custom view, you can generate alerts, based on changes to data, that appear in that view. So your view can be a filter for your alerts. This feature isn't well known because the option for creating a view-based alert appears only after you create a custom view, so you might not have ever noticed that option. After I created the My Rides view, I assigned the view to all users. Now, when anything changes about a ride for a user, the user will receive an alert with the appropriate information. We'll be testing the alert-based notification for a few weeks. If it doesn't meet our needs, I'll use SharePoint Designer to create a custom workflow to achieve the same email notification.
I learned some important lessons from building this application. Because SharePoint doesn't support relational data very well, I needed to denormalize some data points. That is, I have some redundant information across tables. For example, when a user's ride request is fulfilled as a transfer, the vehicle number is entered into the transfer table and into the ride request table. Code within the Access form enters the data automatically, but it's redundant. That was necessary to give the correct experience and information when a user visits the site online or receives an email notification. SharePoint has lookup fields, but working with them can be difficult (e.g., there are places where doing searches, sorts, and queries based on their content isn't so easy). So, I cut my development time significantly by entering information into two fields—a lookup field, which lets users jump to related items via a link when visiting the application online, and a normal text field, which is easier to manipulate programmatically and to generate views and queries.
Using Access as a front end to a Share- Point application isn't the right solution for every challenge, but since we had a limited number of internal transportation managers who need to interact with the data in a rich way, we can deploy Access to their systems. All other users will be interacting with the ride request form and with the ride list online, and with email notifications. We could have created part of the solution using SharePoint Designer and its powerful Data View Web part, or we could have opened Visual Studio. But we met our requirements with an easy solution within which the only custom code is related to automating the process and reducing data entry.
On to the Games
These four applications demonstrate some interesting uses of SharePoint to solve problems. I'm writing this article a few months before the Games, and by the time you read this, we'll be running full speed toward the Opening Ceremony on August 8. We'll have learned even more by then, and you can learn about these applications at my blog, share.intelliem.com/cs/blogs/danholme.

Pension action urged
Tuesday 16th July 2013
Organisations representing unions, employers, actuaries and pension funds have jointly called on the Government to reform pension regulations to protect workers whose defined benefit pension schemes are in crisis.
In an unprecedented step, ICTU, IBEC, the Irish Association of Pension Funds and the Society of Actuaries in Ireland last week issued a statement calling for changes to the rules that currently give retired members of pension schemes full protection, but leave current staff totally at risk if schemes collapse.
They said 200,000 'active' (or non-retired) members of pension schemes, many with modest pension expectations, will pay a heavy price if the Government fails to act fast. "The simple truth is that, in the unfortunate event of a scheme winding up in deficit, people of working age continue to risk losing everything before pensioners can be asked to give up anything," they said.
The four organisations say government inaction and "onerous new regulations" have exacerbated a pension crisis in which more than 400 defined benefit schemes, affecting nearly 65,000 workers, have closed since the end of 2008. While calling for practical government measures to slow the rate of scheme closures, they say wind-up rules should also be changed to give more protection to working members of pension schemes.
Under the current wind-up rules for failed schemes, a retired worker will have his or her full pension protected, while a worker months from retirement could be left with little or no pension rights at all. Retired members can only suffer a reduced pension when active members have lost everything.
"We hope that the seriousness of the situation is underlined by the unprecedented step of IBEC, ICTU, IAPF and the Society of Actuaries in Ireland for the first time collectively calling on the Minster for Social Protection and her Government colleagues to take immediate action," the statement says.
Earlier this year, IMPACT's Services and Enterprises conference called on the Minister to convene a commission on defined benefit pension schemes "with a view to establishing an appropriate regulation system that would remove unnecessary uncertainty."

Team SoloMid have dominated the North American League of Legends Championship Series, having been a part of every NA LCS Final and placing first in the NA LCS Playoffs four times. TSM represented North America in every single LoL World Championship to date, and despite roster swaps over the years have remained a staple in the NA League of Legends scene. This November, North America's top team is headed to the Oracle Arena to battle for the IEM Oakland championship title.
TSM are no stranger to Intel Extreme Masters, with an IEM Season IX World Championship title under their belt and a great showing in last year's IEM Season X where they finished as semifinalists at Katowice.
2016 has been the year of a new TSM, with Dyrus retiring and erasing any trace of the powerhouse 2012 roster. Doublelift, TSM's play-defining AD Carry, recently stepped down to take a break for the Spring Split, leaving the future of the team shrouded in mystery.
Although TSM were narrowly eliminated in the 2016 Worlds group stages, they proved themselves with a 3-3 record and will head to IEM Oakland looking to defend their reputation as North America's best and prove themselves on a global stage.
Be sure to grab your IEM Oakland tickets to watch North America's top League of Legends team compete live at the Oracle Arena.

Paterson, N. J. (May. 18)
The American Fascist Union, with headquarters in the Riverside section of the city, has purchased uniforms and members will wear them in future parades the Jewsih Daily Bulletin learned today.
The organization, which is not recognized by the Italian Fascists, has for its leader a Newark man. Members of the organization claim the leader is Italian, although his name is Stern, or Schturn, and is German in appearance. The Fascists are being drilled by an Italian who, it is reported, was at one time getting $160 compensaton from the United States government.
Few Jews live in the neighborhood. One stationery store owned by Jews and within a few feet of the Fascist headquarters has not been bothered by the club. However, the owner of the store declared to the Bulletin correspondent that there "is no doubt but that they will become a German organization."

Thanks, Gail! It's the first thing that popped into my head -- I just had to FIND it!Delete
A beautiful postcard and so apt for this week's prompt.ReplyDeleteReplies
There's something sweet about it...his Grammie sent him lots of cards, but I like this one best!Delete
The scene on that card is so tranquil that it's easy to forget that the mill wheel would have been making a noise.ReplyDelete
I wonder why that aunt needed to be carried, if that is what it meant in the literal sense.Replies
Not literal. It's an old New England expression that means "give a ride to." It comes from carrying something in your wagon...so if I give you a ride to church, I'm carrying you to church!Delete
I only have a couple of letters from the early 1900s. Treasures, each. I am never sure which I cherish more, the letter writers or the letter keepers -- I guess one has to have both for that living legacy of the written word.ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm with you, Joan! And we're losing all that to computers and social messaging...as for me, I continue to write, write, write!Delete
A very pretty postcard scene. I wondered about the aunt being carried too, before I read your reply to Little Nell. I also wonder whether when Grammie described the aunt as real smart, was she referring to her appearance or her intelligence? It seems a funny thing to say to a child.ReplyDeleteReplies
"Smart" was another early 20th century term; meant something like "chic" or "spiffy" or..."well-dressed," I think. Oh, those old expressions can be confusing!Delete
The picture on the card certainly looks a little romanticised, but none the worse for that.ReplyDeleteReplies
Definitely a romantic drew it; you're so right! But, as Paul McCartney asked, "What's wrong with that?" Thanks for stopping by!Delete

|Rome wasn't built in a day -
Soo for today I'm picking one of the songs that I "performed" last night. This was a duet with my dear very-well-able-to-sing-so-thanks-for-covering-me-up friend, and (even though we didn't remember how the song goes for the whole of it) it's been quite nice! Good (humiliating) memories that go in the back of my head together with the the lots that I already have! Still, I would probably dare say that Skye & friends's version is "a bit" better!

In India the Competition Commision's penalty on discount policy is overturned and the policy was found to be non-discriminatory.
In March 2012 the commission imposed a fine of 56.6 million INR on Schott Glass for abusing its dominant position by imposing unfair and dissimilar discounts, which resulted in an adverse effect on converters in the downstream market. Schott Glass appealed to COMPAT; Kapoor Glass also filed a cross-appeal against the commission's order for an increase in the penalty.
Relying on the minority order passed by Commissioner Geeta Gouri, COMPAT observed that the functional discount policy adopted by Schott Glass had been uniformly applied to all converters at the same flat rate since its inception and was thus non-discriminatory. On the issue of cross-examination, COMPAT observed that the commission should have accepted the parties' application for cross-examination, even at the final stage of the inquiry, and should not have insisted that the parties make a separate application before the directorate general at an earlier stage. Interestingly, COMPAT fined Kapoor Glass 100,000 INR for lack of good faith.

We really enjoyed the diversity of Mooi River. We were expecting beautiful scenery (which we got in abundance), but were also pleased by the crafts industry and the watersports, due to the river. We didn't expect there to be quite so much variety and definitely didn't schedule enough time here to do all the fishing and boating that we would have liked to.

Amazon has started taking pre-orders for Star Trek: Enterprise—Season Two. CBS will release the package August 20, 2013 with a SRP of $119.99 ($83.99 on Amazon). Extras include part two of the behind-the-scenes documentary included on the Season One Blu-ray disc set as well as a round table discussion with the reunited main cast from the series.
Another beloved sci-fi space series will be fully released on August 6, 2013. Universal already offers Battlestar Galactica: the 35th Anniversary Blu-ray as a Best Buy exclusive. Universal will also release Smash: Season Two and do a special promotion for the already-released Riddick Collection Blu-ray and DVD the same day.
Sony Pictures Classics has acquired the North American distribution rights to Only Lovers Left Alive, director Jim Jarmusch's vampire love flick that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. Set against a backdrop of Detroit and Tangiers spanning centuries, the film stars Tilda Swinton, Tim Hiddleston, and Mia Wasikowska.
At $44 Million (over $326 Million adjusted for inflation) Darryl Zanuck and Joseph Mankiewicz's 1963 film Cleopatra once held the title of the most expensive movie ever made. Elizabeth Taylor's turn as the world renown beautiful Egyptian Pharoah is one of her best-known roles. The sweeping epic full of of lush, detailed, and expensive sets also stars Richard Burton, Rex Harrison, Roddy McDowall, and Martin Landau. Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release multiple-Oscar-winning Cleopatra on home video May 28, 2013. The set is available as a limited edition 50th anniversary 2 disc set plus book for $$34.99.
Shout! Factory will release three titles on May 28, 2013: Rolling Thunder, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry, and Race With The Devil. Rolling Thunder stars William DeVane as Maj.

Yours truely still having packs of dates leftover from Zulhijjah 10 days fasting plus packs sent by someone in Makkah thru my aunt when she's back from hajj last month. There was times when we did not have dates on the shelves as of nowadays, my mom used to keep stock from Ramadhan to last for few months. She used to take out from the container and dry it off under the hot sun, then dates look good and nice to eat again. She made cakes too. Here is something I tried hard to recall, then managed to documented in metrics!

10 garlics ( put aside 3 pcs - chopped)
1 bulb big union
1 big tomato - quartered
3 pcs preserved plum
garnishing - green union- chopped
fish sauce
salt, sugar
Steam the fish with 7bulb of garlics, chopped ginger, chillies, preserved plum, salt and sugar.
When it's done, take out clear soup from the fish and put aside.
Saute chopped garlics until fragrants. Pour in the soup, add lime and fish sauce and bring to boil. Add hot water if the soup is too thick. Put in tomatoes and big union ( and chopped cucumbar- option) and simmer for 2 minutes. The soup should taste sour, sweet, salty and hot!
Arrange fish in shallow plate, then pour in the soup together with all veggeies.
Black Pepper Squid
1 kg large squid (app. 6-8 inches long)
5 cloves garlic - crunched finely
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp black pepper corn - pound finely
salt , light brown sugar
3 tbsp honey
1 lime - squeezed for juice
red chilly or capsicum- sliced thinly

Cut squid into 2. Use sharp scissors to cut each edges at interval of 1cm - this help each pieces to open up like flower.
Season and marinate squid with all ingredients for 5 minutes. Heat the non-grease pan, work with big fire. Put in squid.( I cook the tentacle first, as it's easier to work on the flower later. Dish out cooked tentacles then put in the slices into hot pan). Stir evenly and turn squids to have the edges down so good petals can form up better flower. Season to your taste and ready to serve.

SERVQUAL is considered as a means of consumer satisfaction measurement and attempts to isolate key factors and attributes in service provider selection.The effect of formal qualifications and membership of professional accounting bodies on individuals' choice of accountant, differences between urban and rural selection criteria and managerial implications are discussed. This study deals only with accountants who offer their services in public practice.

"Chromium" removed from maemo.org repositories
This is a joint statement from Nokia and the Maemo Community Council.
A few weeks ago we received a letter requesting that maemo.org cease distribution of Chromium, due to ongoing litigation involving the software.
The Community Council, the package maintainer of Chromium on maemo.org and Nokia legal were contacted.
As you are aware, it is Nokia's policy to respect the intellectual property rights of third parties. Thus, we suggested that Chromium be removed from maemo.org while the situation was clarified.
Nokia legal will be taking a look on the roles and responsibilities of maemo.org. This work should clarify the roles on maemo.org so the process would be clear if we were to receive any future requirements as the one from Red Bend.
Huh. Isn't Chromium open source? Isn't that the point? Isn't Chromium the open source bits from Chrome?

Prof. Caspar Stracke
with Marianne Decoster-Taivalkoski, Eero Pulkkinen, Jonas Olesen
May 27th – May 31th. 2013, KUVA Helsinki, Finland
The second Helsinki module of the 2012/13 Nordic Sound Art cycle will include a lecture and workshop and investigate various aspects of the notion of reverberation, defined as both, an acoustical phenomenon and a conceptual strategy in sound art.
We will research on specific projects by Max Neuhaus, Phill Niblock and listen / discuss various case studies by Andy Graydon, Richart Garet and Helsinki sound artist Eero Pulkkinen.
The workshop part will take place in the main water reservoir tank of an abandoned watertower in Lautasaari. This site will serve as a sound installation test site (and optional; recording site) not only for experiments with natural reverberation but also as an project idea incubator for site specific exercises. A specific space to attach a sound to and then also respond to the physical location by simple visual and sculptural means.
NSA participants will produce, playback and re-record and sound sources, place them in a specific locations and work with various sculptural / visual elements to create relationships between the sound source, reverberation and environment.
Workshop will also include a number of studio critiques and an NSA evaluation.
Marianne Decoster-Taivalkoski:
Reverberation and resonant bodies
Reverberation is the result of sound propagation in an environment with reflective surface. When a sound is performed in a space, part of the energy of the sound wave is absorbed and part is reflected back and propagated until the wave hits another reflective surface.
Reverberation plays an essential role in our perception of a space. Reverberation informs the listener not only on the sound source but also on the environment, on the physical quality of a space, like its size, its shape, its materials. Acoustic spaces have their own behaviours and acoustic characteristics. Acoustic spaces can be considered as potential meta-instruments. They have their own resonant frequency. They transform or filter original sound sources that we perform or play inside them. Sound artists think of reverberating spaces as resonators, performance venues or recording studios.
Marianne Decoster-Taivalkoski (born in France in 1969), media & sound artist based in Helsinki, is currently lecturer in Media and Sonic Arts at the Centre for music and technology in Sibelius Academy, University of the Arts Helsinki.
Her work includes motion sensitive interactive sound installations and electroacoustic soundscape performances based on improvisation. Working with water sounds (live or recorded) and the poetics of water and fluids has been a recurrent theme in her pieces.

Summary: RadioToday has learnt that sufficient time is needed to take full account of any comments received in response to the provisional findings and that the need to provide a fully reasoned decision within the statutory time frame has arisen. The range of possible remedies to be considered in this case is complex and that all possible remedies need to be explored with the parties to the merger and third parties, the Competition Commission said today.

Looking at the "ring around the corral" (bad pun) I note the grime, which leads me to wondering if they all made it a habit to congregate and poop in the area. Thermal inversion, methane, and that's HH's creeping gas theory. And methane displacing O2 is asphyxiation if I'm not mistaken.

maybe they got a particulary gassey batch of sheepchow [up]tm[/up] and the resultant flatulence was their undoing?

They needn't all have suffocated. It says they died of asphyxiation and fright. It's possible the ones in back couldn't breath while the others died from fright. Perhaps their little hearts burst from pumping too fast.
Hoof Hearted Thursday Jan 11 10:55 PM
Sheep ARE very stupid, however having raised lambs for 4-H and being around large groups of sheep pressing together...they cannot press together (while standing with all 4 feet on the ground) enough to prevent them from being able to breathe. Their wool is a very good buffer between each other, allowing air space and room to expand their lungs.

The posted picture does not show 300 ewes, and I've seen sheep ranching, shearing, and butchering operations with wooden pens holding hundreds to thousands of sheep crowing each other so tightly the dogs had to walk on the backs of the sheep to get across the pen to do their work of cutting animals out for sorting.
xoxoxoBruce Friday Jan 12 04:43 AM
I agree the story and picture don't jib...not 300....not piled. Another tragic victim of Babelfish?

Um, maybe the ones that didn't die were let out before the picture was taken - just a thought.

I don't know how this correlates to the discussion. 300 dead? Not (300) in that picture, and if they were dead, they wouldn't be alive to be let out. Do you mean if they were trampled? The live animals that walked all over the dead ones just walked away while their departed brethren were left behind for the photo op.
I'm not sure what you meant.
Happy Monkey Friday Jan 12 04:08 PM
If they were crowding against one wall (away from the vultures), presumably (and ironically) the ones closest to the vultures would have been likely to survive.
Iggy Friday Jan 12 05:00 PM
They were probably trampled and after the "care givers" moved the live animals they spread out the dead so they could count them or something.

I've never heard of vultures attacking a person but the two I saw feasting on a possum didn't look like something I wanted to mess with. A whole flock of them could be intimidating.

Evil vulture child


text: My difficult child saw a psychiatrist for about 4 years. My insurance only had a few local ones on our list of docs. We tried them all and none were all that great. The one we stuck with finally was never very available. He ran a teen center locally as well and spent most of his time there. He never returned phone calls when difficult child was having major issues. The last 4 times we had appts he was either running an hour and a half late or he wasn't even there due to issues at the teen center. I was fed up. Even when we did get in for an appointment he didn't really do anything other than ask about her behavior and start writing RX's. Around the same time that I became completely fed up difficult child started having grand mal seizures and had to see a neurologist. I had told him about the problems with the psychiatrist and he said he would start writing all scripts. He took her off most of the medications except the current ones. difficult child has never been better. On top of all this the mental health coverage on our insurance was horrible. Max of 5 visits per year and a $750 deductible. So, since she is only seeing the neuro we no longer have any of that and I only pay a $25 copay every time we go in. I just thought I would post about my experiences between the two professions. Honestly, I think the Neuro is just as qualified as the psychiatrist was in our case. So others who have had similar issues, might check into seeing a neurologist for their difficult children. Steph

Today Sierra announced it is prepping a videogame tie-in for this summer's Mummy sequel, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. The game is being developed by Eurocom (Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End) for the Wii and PlayStation 2, and for the Nintendo DS by A2M (Spiderman: Friend or Foe DS). The latest Mummy film, produced by Universal Pictures, stars Brendan Fraser returning to his hero role and Jet Li as the evil Dragon Emperor.
"The Mummy is one of the most distinctive and expansive franchises in Universal's portfolio, and there is inherent gameplay in the property," said Bill Kispert, Vice President and General Manager, Interactive, Universal Pictures Digital Platforms Group. "The new film amps up the action, introduces a ruthless new villain and takes our heroes to incredible new locations. We are thrilled to bring all these attributes to life in this game."
Players will step into the shoes of Rick O'Connell (Fraser) and his son, Alex, as they travel to Chinese tombs and Himalayan mountain tops. Gameplay will be a mix of combat, puzzles, and hieroglyphic decryption.
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is set to hit game consoles July 22.

The Sacred Heart Cathedral girls' basketball team went down to San Jose and came away with a 55-43 victory over Mitty, the sixth-ranked team in the state, according to Maxpreps.com.
The seventh-ranked Irish were led by Jazmine Jackson's 17 points, while Tierra Rogers added 15 and Lauren Bell 10.
The game was back and forth early on as Danielle Robinson, a speedy 5-foot-7 point guard and Oklahoma signee, exploded for 10 early points. The Irish were able to take the lead in the third quarter behind the timely playmaking of Rogers who scored or made plays for five straight points, to help Sacred Heart take the lead at 31-25. Mitty would come back with Robinson making a nifty layup.
But the Irish fought back again behind the play of Jackson, who hit a 3-pointer, had an assist to Rosalyn Beard and then stole the ball from Mitty, which resulted in a Bell layup. The Irish would never trail the rest of the game and they held Robinson in check for the rest of the game to move into first place in the WCAL.
"We played good half court defense on Danielle Robinson," Sacred Heart coach Brian Harrigan said. "We had a little lapse in the third quarter, but we got through it. This was the best game we have played this season."
Added Jackson: "It feels good to come down here and get this win. This is a big game and Mitty is our rival."
St. Ignatius 63, St. Francis 51
MOUNTAIN VIEW — Nicole Canepa had 20 points and six rebounds to lead the Wildcats (11-3, 3-1) over the host Lancers (6-9, 2-2).
Britney Blythe and Addie Schivo each added 11 for St. Ignatius, which took advantage of a foul-prone St. Francis team to seal the win.
The Lancers committed 15 fouls in the second half, and the Wildcats buried 13 of 16 free throws in the fourth quarter on their way to outscoring St. Francis 21-13 in the final period.

Lowell 73, Galileo 52
Angelina Clay and Heather Chow each scored 13 points and Anna Bukareva chipped in 10 as the host Cardinals (19-1, 5-0) beat the Lions (9-10, 2-3) to remain perfect in Academic Athletic Association play.
Lowell used its pressure defense to race out to a 26-7 lead after the first quarter and cruised from there, with eleven different Cardinals reaching the scoring column.
Staneisha Henson led Galileo with 12 points, while Monica Compton had 10.
"In the last three or four games the girls have really been picking up their defense," Lowell coach Aki Kuwada said. "And once they get some layups they get a lot of confidence, and then everything starts falling."

Burton 53, Wallenberg 35
Mone Peoples poured in 31 points, including 16 in the fourth quarter, as the Pumas (8-8, 3-2) topped the Bulldogs (1-12, 0-4) at Kezar Pavilion.
Peoples, who drilled five 3-pointers, helped Burton expanded an eight-point lead at the end of the third quarter to 20 midway through the final period.
"Mone definitely brings a lot of positive energy to the team," Burton coach Brian Jackson said.
Nneka Emeka led Wallenberg with 17.

Washington 68, Marshall 24
Tierney Jones scored seven of her 15 points in the first quarter as the host Eagles (5-11, 3-0) continued their strong league play by thumping the Phoenix. Shannon Yen added 10 points for Washington, which outscored Marshall 20-2 in the first quarter and 20-3 in the second quarter. Several of Jones first-quarter points were set up by the standout play of Stephanie Truong, who had eight assists.

Gateway 60, International 31
Dominique Hunter (20 points, 20 rebounds) and Camila Rosen (23 points, seven rebounds) led the Gators (12-1, 3-0) to another decisive BCL Central win over the Jaguars (5-9, 1-1).
International, shaken by the Gators' full-court press, committed numerous turnovers, including three in as many possessions at the start of the second quarter. The Jaguars did not reach double-digits until Julia Hechanova nailed a 3-pointer with 2:45 reaming in the first half. Gateway led 30-11 at halftime.
Defensively, International could do little to stop Hunter and Rosen.
"We knew we had a height advantage and we wanted to use it," Hunter said.
But Hunter and Rosen's frontcourt presence was only part of Gateway's strategy. The other part was to shut down Hechanova, International's go-to shooter.
"We know she's good," Hunter said. "We wanted to make her be a passer more than a shooter."
The plan worked. Hechanova was held to six points. Rachel Beck did her best to fill the gap, leading the Jaguars with 15 points.

Leadership 50, Waldorf 27
Freshman Leshay Wallace scored 17 points as the Griffins cruised past the Wolverines.
Junior guard Brittney Kelley had 14 points and junior Elena Puccette added seven. Leadership dominated the secondand fourth quarters. The Griffins outscored the Wolverines 16-7 in the second for a 27-16 halftime lead and 17-2 in the final period, stretching and eight-point advantage to the final 23-point cushion.
Sophomore wing Julie Alba was the Wolverines' leading scorer with 13. Katrina Thollaug made six and Illi Pemberton scored four.

Urban 47, Liberty Christian 42

Allison Weston had six points for the Blues and made two huge free throws with less than a minute remaining in the game that gave the Blues a seven-point lead. Point guard Jen Marquez chipped in six points, six steals and five assists.
"It was a real hard-fought game," Urban coach Andy Schroeder said.

In case some of you missed this Thursday, Ritz Camera--and by association Wolf and Kits Camera among others--is shutting down more than 300 stores around the U.S. as part of a court-supervised bankruptcy reorganization. This of course means stock liquidation sales, which will begin Saturday, April 4.
As with the Circuit City liquidation, I wouldn't expect huge discounts despite a senior VP at one of the four LLCs handling the sale saying we'll find "quality, brand-name merchandise at greatly reduced prices." (I'm willing to bet his idea of "greatly reduced" and mine don't jibe.)
Though it's sad to see more stores shutting down, at least Ritz isn't going away entirely. The company as of right now plans to keep more than 400 stores open.
Click here to see the full announcement and view a PDF of all the stores shutting down.

Jesus came to give us life abundant… joy, peace… rest. I have missed all of this for the better part of 40 years. I have sat in studies, sermons, retreats, and lectures nodding my head and saying amen… walking out more in bondage than I was when I arrived.
Joy… peace… rest ~ evaded me.
Until very recently when I learned of the message of Grace. When Jesus finished the work of the Cross… He sat down. He invites you to do the same. Come as you are. Put down your list. Sit…
The work is done.
