10 tips for managers on active listening skills, motivating employees, workplace productivity, employee retention strategies and change management techniques
Claim your FREE copy of Office Communication Toolkit: 10 tips for managers on active listening skills, motivating employees, workplace productivity, employee retention strategies and change management techniques!
A manager's job is 100 times easier and more rewarding when his or her employees are performing like a well-oiled machine. But when that machine runs slowly or breaks down entirely, a manager's job becomes exponentially harder. Business Management Daily, publisher of Office Manager Today and The HR Specialist, has compiled these 10 tips for managers on how to maximize their office communication skills and bolster workplace productivity.
Active listening in 4 steps: The best managers make the best listeners
Managers spend a good part of their workday listening to other people. But bear in mind, there's a big difference between "passive" and "active" listening.
Effective listening includes a four-step process to ensure understanding:
- Listen to the total message.
- Prove your understanding by using nonverbal signals.
- Use open-ended probes.
- Paraphrase what you hear.
Learn more about the four steps of active listening, as well as five bad habits that impede effective listening, in Office Communication Toolkit.
Motivating employees through realistic deadlines: 4 do's and don'ts
Without deadlines, employees flounder. They can't be aware of the urgency or priorities of a project unless their supervisors tell them.
Following are four tips on motivating employees by setting realistic deadlines:
- Do be specific. Name the target day and time. And mean what you say. If you ask for completion "next week," don't complain on Friday that you really needed it on Wednesday.
- Do clarify priorities. Let people know if this assignment takes precedence over any other projects they're working on now. Avoid the old, favorite deadline "ASAP," which usually translates in an employee's mind as "whenever it gets done."
- Don't set false deadlines. Setting a deadline earlier than necessary (because you don't trust your employees to meet the real deadline) creates more problems than it solves. Your staff will soon learn that's how you operate and will assume there's always air in the schedule. As a result, they'll always miss that first deadline, just as you knew they would.
- Do establish an update schedule. The best-laid plans can go astray, and so can deadlines. You'll minimize the chance of this occurring by setting up a progress report schedule when you assign the project. This is especially important for long-term projects.
Motivating employees to do their best each day: 6 office communication techniques
Here are six tips for motivating employees to stay on task and work together toward the common goal, according to a report by OnPoint Consulting:
- Clarify, clarify, clarify.
- Establish clear expectations.
- Don't micromanage your entrepreneurial-minded employees. But do monitor them.
- Encourage employees to share bad news with you.
- Solve problems quickly, but not too quickly.
- Encourage informal and spontaneous interaction.
Managing employee retention: Listen for subtle whispers of employee turnover
Most good employees don't stand up one day and quit out of the blue. They send off subtle hints that, if you're listening, you can act on before the good employee walks out the door. That's why it's important to listen to statements like these that can act as an "advance warning system" for employee turnover:
- "This job isn't what I thought it would be." Rather than exploring what the employee was originally told or trying to defend miscommunication, focus on the present. Ask, "How do you want your job to be?"
- "I'm at a plateau. I can't grow here." Consider that a plea for job stimulation. Provide the employee with new responsibilities, cross-training opportunities or exposure to influential mentors.
- "I don't get any feedback." Most employees crave regular input from their supervisors. Don't leave them in the dark. Plan regular sessions to discuss ongoing projects and performance.
- "This place has too much politics." While you may not be able to eliminate all dissension and politics in the organization, you can level with the employee. If someone makes this complaint, address rumors head-on, and don't play favorites.

Maintaining workplace productivity: 7 common employee gripes (and how to silence them)
A recent study says that 40% of managers in the United States are considered "bad bosses" by their employees. Yet most managers assume that their relationships with their employees are running smoothly.
Obviously, some of those bosses are wrong … and that can create major problems for workplace productivity. A Gallup Poll says organizations are 50% less productive—and 44% less profitable—when serious boss-employee conflicts exist.
Editor's Note: What makes a good boss? Qualities that U.S. workers consider necessary for being a good boss (in order of importance), according to a Yahoo! survey:
- Communication/listening skills
- Effective leadership skills
- Trust in their employees to do their jobs well
- Flexibility and understanding
- Intelligence
- Teamwork skills
- Even temperament
Access practical scripts on how to respond to seven common employee complaints in Office Communication Toolkit.
Employee retention strategies: 8 little things managers can do to retain the best
When good employees leave for greener pastures, it makes a manager's job much more difficult. Managers can prevent this syndrome by doing what they can to make their own pasture the greenest. While compensation helps, it's not always cash that makes pastures greener. When salaries are equal with the marketplace, other factors take priority.
Here are eight easy-to-plant "seeds" that help keep employees growing and content, according to a KEYGroup report:
- Keep them engaged. Consider ways to provide opportunities for employees to improve on their skills or learn new skills they can use in their jobs.
- Give praise where praise is due. Recognizing a job well done isn't an expensive proposition, but it will mean the world to your employee.
- Be aware of employees' changing needs. By recognizing their changing needs, you show sensitivity to what's going on in their lives. This builds loyalty and helps bring stability to their personal lives, which means they can focus better at work.
- Realize that great employees thrive under great leaders. Employees won't leave for greener pastures unless you drive them. The buck starts and stops with their leaders.
- Conduct regular "stay" interviews. Rather than exit interviews, use regular "stay" interviews to provide an opportunity to compliment high performers on their work and inspire them to do more.
- Create an environment where people can do their best work. By allowing employees to develop and implement their own ideas, you'll keep them passionate about their work.
- Create an environment of trust. Employees are happier and work harder when they trust their leaders. They decide which leaders they can trust based on how their fellow employees, company vendors and customers are treated.
- Rid your pasture of weeds. The weeds are those poor performers and negative employees who stifle the good attitudes and high performance of their co-workers.
The bottom line: Striving to keep employees happy and engaged is not just a "nice" thing to do — it's the only way to maximize workplace productivity.
Thoughtful employee retention strategies are useful not just for retaining people to avoid the high cost of recruitment. Engaged employees are creative, productive, motivated and brimming with good ideas.
Confronting poor performers: 6 scripts for managers
No manager enjoys having "the talk" with employees. But ignoring an employee's poor performance won't make the problem go away; it will only make things worse.
If you're apt to take the head-in-the-sand approach to employees' job failings, you're not alone: Only 31% of U.S. workers agree with the statement "My manager confronts poor performance," according to a KEYGroup survey.
And companies that tolerate poor performance will drive away top performers who are unhappy working in such an environment.
The solution: Approach workers about their performance problems in a fair, problem-solving manner. When you confront such people in a tactful way, you'll find that one of two things happens: They improve or they move.

Helping employees accept change in the workplace: It's all about the 4 C's
To start, you must first understand why people are so quick to resist change. By knowing this, you can make intelligent decisions about how to introduce changes.
Change equals loss. One main reason for the negativity: When things change, you lose something. You may gain something as well, but a loss is usually involved.
Change management requires acceptance planning
To get people to accept change, the first step is to understand what, from their perspective, they feel they're losing. If you can empathize with their feelings—and possibly compensate for the loss—you've taken a giant first step toward acceptance.
Here are four more factors—the four C's—to promoting acceptance of change:
1. Caring. Listening and responding to people's reactions is just as important as explaining the reasons for change.
2. Control. People want input into how change will be implemented. But never ask for input unless you plan to consider it.
3. Choice. Employees feel better if they are given options as part of the change process. The more choices they have, the more they feel in control.
4. Competence. Workers are happier about change if they feel they have the skills and abilities to succeed after the change. The faster you can help someone move through the learning curve, the faster they will accept the change.
15 questions to ask employees in their first 60 days
Recruiting, hiring and training new employees can eat up a manager's time. The last thing a manager wants to do is restart the process all over again because that new hire just stood up and walked out the door after three months.
Make it a point to meet with new hires within the first 60 days. Your goal: Discover their likes/dislikes about the job and environment, see if the job meets their expectations and nip potential problems in the bud.
View these one-on-one chats as a continuation of new-employee orientation and a way to gain fresh insight into your department and the organization. Start the meeting by reminding new employees that you're glad they're part of the organization, and that you value their input and observations.

Remodeled Vacation Home
A renovated Bridgehampton home is more functional, comfortable, and pretty
- « prev
- next »
- 1 of 18
As a mother of four (three teenagers and one soon-to-be teen), Nina Richter knows how to coax results from stubborn situations. When she and her husband, Greg, bought an ungainly vacation home in Bridgehampton, New York, she never doubted its hidden beauty. She just needed a designer and an architect who shared her vision and determination.
The 1980s spec house is a two-hour drive from the Richters' primary residence in Bronxville, New York. Sitting on a 3-acre lot next to an agricultural preserve, the house offers far-flung views of farmland. "The location was terrific," Nina says, adding that the house is equidistant from the beach and the town of Bridgehampton. "But it was dark and barnlike, and I wanted a house with prettier curb appeal."
It wasn't only the exterior that was lacking. There was no mudroom, and the laundry area was stuck in a closet near the kitchen--serious shortcomings in a summer home where beach outings and frequent guests produce mountains of shoes, sports gear, and dirty laundry. The dining-living room and kitchen shared a cavernous space, dominated by a stone fireplace and vaulted ceilings with dark, weathered trusses. Windows were odd sizes, awkwardly positioned, and trimmed with barn board.
"The house had no architectural charm whatsoever," notes Ken Gemes, the Bronxville designer who was one of the first to come to the Richters' rescue. Gemes made some temporary fixes, including painting walls, trim, and trusses, and partitioning off a second-floor room that overlooked the dining-living- room area. "We minimized what negatives we could, knowing the Richters would eventually get an architect to do a full-blown renovation," Gemes says.
That began in 2006 when Nina contacted Stuart Disston, an architect with offices in Connecticut and Quogue, New York. "I felt the layout of the house was conducive to a renovation," Nina says. "There was an attached garage near the kitchen and I figured it would be easy to transform that space into a mudroom, laundry room, and side entry."
Disston agreed, and reconfigured the garage space to give the family its much-needed mudroom, a more efficient kitchen, a large laundry area, a powder room, an outdoor shower, and a side entry. To replace the garage, a new detached three-car garage was built with attic space large enough for birthday-party sleepovers and teen get-togethers. "We have air hockey, Ping-Pong, and all that," Nina says. "I wanted a place where the kids would want to hang out with their friends."
The kitchen, also redone to encourage casual gatherings, is anchored by a large mahogany-topped island where family and friends congregate. Perimeter countertops are easy-care black granite that won't show spills or stains. Simple cabinets and a boxed beam-and-beadboard ceiling give the room a relaxed, beach-house feel, Gemes adds.
Walls were built to separate the kitchen and the dining-living room. "We needed some distinction between the dining area and kitchen," Gemes explains. The wide doorway still allows for comfortable interaction between the rooms.
Disston paneled walls in the dining-living room and foyer, adding character and diminishing the looming scale of the spaces. "The paneling adds texture, light, and shadow, and gives you a sense of a room within a room," Disston says.
The architect also designed an elegant paneled fireplace surround with a limestone hearth, replacing the too-rustic rock. He widened and curved the stairs to create an elegant staircase in keeping with the scale of the foyer. Gemes went with hefty furnishings as well, including an antique pedestal table. "We used dark wood for impact and to punctuate the space," he says.
"The whole idea was to capitalize on a British Colonial feeling, with the dark furniture and dark floors and using a lot of textures such as grass cloth and caning," Gemes says.
To give the house the pretty profile Nina wanted, Disston reshaped the ungainly structure by extending roof lines to create two graceful gambrels. "It appeared to me like a half-finished gambrel house, so we finished it," says Disston, who was assisted in the project by architectural associate Josh Rosensweig. "We extended the eave lines down and out, bringing them to the porches that wrap about the house," Disston adds. "That brought the scale of the house down and introduced nicer, softer lines."
The back exterior was balanced with the addition of a second chimney, matching an existing one. The new chimney serves both a fireplace in the sunroom and a grill on the porch. A west-facing covered porch with a balcony above (one of Nina's favorite spots) is tucked between the chimneys; both outdoor spaces take advantage of sunset and farmland views.
The transformation exemplifies the proverbial silk purse made from a sow's ear, Disston adds, "and introduces the spirit of a traditional, breezy summerhouse in Bridgehampton."
The architects and designer definitely brought out the house's best features, Nina agrees, making it functional, comfortable, and "a prettier version of itself."

Hello Guys,
Someone can tell me if it is possible to create a program like Robocode, a game controlled at runtime by an external source file in visual c ++? For example create a checkers game where there would be an external source file, read at runtime, which would play automatically, with artificial intelligence. You can? If yes, how?

My name is Gabriel Goldenberg and SEO ROI Services is my SEO company. Read on for company information. Click "Gab Goldenberg" for information about me.
My start in SEO
I got into SEO by accident. I grew up in a family where politics were always discussed around the breakfast table with the morning paper, or during family dinners. So it was only natural that, when I turned 18, I wanted to impact the federal election.
So I created a blog to promote my opinions. I read up on internet marketing and applied what I learned to my blog. I ranked for my keywords within 4 months and was hooked from then on.
Starting to take SEO seriously
With the passing of time, I began working on other people's sites and gained notoriety. Here's a short list of some highlights along the way, in roughly chronological order:
- I ranked the Hotel de Paris, a Montreal hotel, for a number of short-tail and medium-tail terms and tripled year-over-year online sales in the process.
- Microsoft offered me a position on its SEM team.
- I ranked a product site of LaughingBird Software within 2 months of getting them their first link.
- First big speaking engagement: I spoke at SMX West. February 2008.
- Matt Cutts of Google recognized me as the second person to notice a new form of crawling. It feels good when Google staff calls you a leader :).
- My big press break: La Presse, Montreal's biggest French-language daily newspaper, profiled Emile Girard and me in a story on young entrepreneurs (PDF, opens in new tab).
- I signed up Ice.com, a member of the Internet Retailer 500 list of largest online stores, as a client. This was also a great learning opportunity, as I learned to use some enterprise marketing software.
- I wrote the first advanced SEO book
My current business
Since then, things have only gotten better.
I have
– Spoken a fair bit: at SMX Advanced 2008 and 2009, SMX West 2009, and Affiliate Summit East 2009. And I had to decline to speak at SMX East, Pubcon Las Vegas and Affiliate Convention.
– Gotten job offers, from both local Canadian competitors as well as from well known American SEO companies like Jim Boykin's We Build Pages.
– Continued to do client work when I think it will be fun and lucrative. Currently that either means doing SEO consultations with small-medium businesses to answer their questions, or buying / building links. I'm open to projects where I will learn something new.
– Written for numerous publications:
- Search Engine Journal
- Search Engine Land
- Michael Gray's Wolf Howl
- SEOmoz
- Website Magazine
- Electronic Retailer Magazine
- Online Strategies Magazine
– Been seen in the press, including some nice interviews:
- In text for About.com
- On tape for Web Pro News about buying websites
- In front of SEOmoz's camera
My client list includes:
- lesser known outfits like the Government of Canada,
- ecommerce outfits like Ice.com and web analytics company Conversion Ruler,
- mom and pop shops

Pro-Russia activists declare east Ukraine independent
KIEV, Ukraine — The seizure of government buildings in eastern Ukraine by pro-Russian separatists is being orchestrated by Moscow to create an excuse for a military invasion like in Crimea, Ukraine's prime minister said Monday.
"Russia's scenario is division and destruction of Ukraine," said Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk at a Cabinet meeting. "They plan for foreign troops to cross the border and attack the country. We won't let it happen."
Armed gunmen took over the headquarters of the security services in Luhansk, 15 miles from the border with Russia. Luhansk is one of several cities in eastern Ukraine where secessionists have held protests in recent weeks.
People erected barriers overnight on Luhansk's thoroughfare, and police have blocked all entrances to the city. Local media reported that pro-Russian demonstrators stormed the building Sunday, pelting it with eggs, stones, a smoke grenade and finally a firebomb.
In the eastern city of Donetsk, pro-Russian separatists who seized the main administration building on the weekend and raised a Russian flag over it proclaimed Monday the creation of a "people's republic" independent of Ukrainian rule, according to Ukrainian and Russian media.
People in Donetsk said the police are not doing enough to stop the violence.
"The people who stand for a united Ukraine are mostly intellectuals, while their opponents are uneducated and aggressive people, drunk with the feeling of impunity that they have, thanks to the inactivity of local police," Liudmyla Yatsyna said. "We don't have a chance against this crowd."
The Interfax news agency said the activists demanded a referendum be held no later than May 11 on the breaking away of the Donetsk region.
In footage uploaded to the Internet, an unidentified pro-Russia activist in the provincial government headquarters in Donetsk asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to send peacekeeping troops to the region.
"Without your support, without the support of Russia, it will be hard for us to resist the Kiev junta on our own," he said, referring to the Ukrainian government appointed by the elected parliament after it voted to oust Moscow-backed President Viktor Yanukovych in February, following the killing of more than 80 protesters.
Crowds assaulted government buildings in the eastern city of Kharkiv on Sunday, but Interior Minister Arsen Avakov said Monday that the Kharkiv building had been retaken by authorities.
MORE:After Ukraine, Russian activists brace for repressions
The takeovers are similar to what happened in the Ukrainian province of Crimea just before masked Russian troops poured in to help separatists keep out Ukrainian troops. Moscow has since claimed Crimea to be part of Russia and has forced out all Ukrainian troops and authorities.
Ukrainians who have held rallies in favor of keeping their country intact say they are being attacked by the separatists.
"We sit at home because both times we went out to protest for a united Ukraine, we came back home covered in dirt from the raw eggs they were throwing at us," said Donetsk resident Yulia Stryzhak. "And others even experienced grenades and tear gas. Going out for a demonstration now is a real threat to one's life."
Tens of thousands of Russian troops are massed at the border with Ukraine. Putin told President Obama and European leaders last week he had removed some of the troops, but Ukraine says they haven't left.
Obama has said Putin must not invade. He opposes any use of military force by NATO, the European-U.S. military alliance that has troops and aircraft in the region.
Ukraine has pleaded for help from the West militarily. The West has issued sanctions against some of Putin's inner circle and provided financial aid and prepared meals to Ukraine.

Nottinghamshire's Medieval Records Published Online.
A register of medieval court rolls, surveys and maps, has been released online for the first time. Information about 200 Nottinghamshire manors is accessible to the public thanks to the county council's archives team. The register, with documents dating back to the 13th century, was funded by The National Archives. Manors were agricultural estates compromising a village whose inhabitants would work the land for the estate's lord. The manorial documents, which pre-date Parish records started in 1538, include such details as the hanging of a thief, men accused of sheep theft and a fight in 14th century Mansfield.
Map of the Manor of Eakring 1604
"We've got documents dating back to the 13th century and with some manors they continue right up until the 20th century," said Mr Dorrington. He added that they could help people discover more about their family history. "There's information on individuals, on relationships, particularly where land is being transferred from father to son," he added.
Anyone who wishes to search for a manorial document has to go through The National Archives website.

Portlandia: Sorry About the Music Industry's Downfall, Aimee Mann and Sarah Mclachlan
Are you at all shocked that Aimee Mann and Sarah Mclachlan are living in Portland cleaning houses and doing yard work? If you've been downloading music instead of purchasing albums, consider yourself the reason why—at least on Portlandia.
Fred and Carrie are faced with the direct results of downloading the music from one of their favorite artists when she shows up one day as their cleaning lady. How awkward is the situation? Very. They grapple with Aimee's crappy job cleaning their house but also feel guilty over being partially to blame for her being there at all. Watch it all go down above.

Prepare for future trends in storage management
Which trends will impact future storage management efforts? What can you do now to prepare for them? Yankee Group analyst and storage management expert Jamie Gruener explains.
The last year has seen some significant changes in the storage market, not the least of which is the growing integration between managing storage and the rest of the data center infrastructure.
Two common themes surfacing could eventually have implications to storage administrators as storage management becomes more fully ingrained in larger management strategies that reach up into the application and business process layers of enterprises.
First, a number of vendors have unveiled their own master plans for rolling out migrations to utility computing. (Over time, utility computing promises common virtualization technologies, provisioning and integrated policies that stretch across applications, networks, servers and storage.)
Second, we've heard about a number of acquisitions over the last year that will ultimately bridge storage with application requirements, such as Veritas' acquisition of Precise, EMC's acquisition of Documentum, and, most recently, Hewlett-Packard's acquisition of Persist Technologies. The result means storage administrators need to pay more attention to how their vendor selections and deployment tactics impact other parts of the data center. We'll talk in more detail about what to think about as part of this process.
So, where are the key areas of consolidation and overlap that administrators need to start thinking about? Here's a list:
- Content and storage management convergence into information management: Two recent events point to the growing trend of application content being increasingly managed as a team effort, where storage management tools comprise a combined information management strategy for enterprises. These events are EMC's intention to purchase Documentum as well as IBM's broadening integration between its content management tools and storage management. The result of this trend will mean that storage management policy and data management tools will likely integrate with content management tools that are responsible for application-specific workflows and policies.
- Enterprise network and SAN management: As more companies evaluate IP storage environments and bridge SAN islands between corporate sites, the need to have a consolidated view of both enterprise IP and storage networks will only increase.
- Utility Computing Convergence: As system and management vendors roll out their grand plans for helping customers shift to utility models, customers will increasingly have the choice of using a common service manager to manage application layers, network, server and storage infrastructures. To be sure, this will not happen overnight, but will progress as both server/storage provisioning and server/storage virtualization start to be integrated.
Despite these impending trends, the big issues for storage administrators will be around how to select tools that meet the broader, long-range data center objectives. There are a number of questions you should think about in this regard:
- What are the plans of your current storage management vendors for integrating with products outside the storage environment (network, servers and applications)?A
- What plans does your IT staff have to develop utility services as well as information management (data retention and ILM) plans?
- Which upcoming projects give you an opportunity to explore how this integration could be done within your own organization?
Finally, this is an exercise in team building. Reaching out to your brothers in arms that manage the enterprise network, content management or overall data center operations (if you are not involved in these functions yourself), will be very important to future storage management strategies.

text: LOS ANGELES -- Regardless of what you think of it, there's no denying that Wii U was the biggest story of E3. Nintendo's Wii console came screaming out of the gate in 2006, besting the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 with an unlikely combination of low-powered graphics (and low pricing) and revolutionary motion controllers. Nintendo has sold 95 million Wiis so far, but those sales have dropped off dramatically as those of its rivals have picked up steam. After a shaky start for the new Nintendo 3DS portable, industry watchers are looking at any new Nintendo proposals with something of a jaundiced eye. Is Wii U's primary innovation -- a second screen embedded into the controller -- enough to inspire a hundred million people to get back on the Nintendo bandwagon? The jury's going to be out on that one for a while, at least until Nintendo actually ships the machine this Christmas. But after spending a lot of time in the Nintendo booth during last week's Electronic Entertainment Expo, we can be sure of one thing: There are some clever new ideas and some very solid-looking games lined up for Wii U's launch window. Here are our impressions of eight major Wii U games -- and our hands-on demo of the Netflix Wii U app, which might get more use than any of these games. Above: Pikmin 3 What it is: Fans have been demanding a sequel to these clever GameCube games for the better part of a decade now. A simplified but challenging take on real-time strategy set in a series of tiny gardens – think the second half of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids -- the Pikmin games are unlike anything else, and the Wii U version's graphics make it look almost photorealistic. Second screen features: While you're leading your army of tiny plant-creatures around the backyard collecting bugs and treasures, you can glance at the Wii U screen for a map. But it's actually after you're finished playing the level that the second screen becomes useful: It turns into an overhead view video of your performance, which you can rewind and fast-forward with a scroll bar, looking for areas where you can improve your time. Is it any good? I don't know if instant replays are really going to add that much, but insofar as Nintendo hasn't actually shown off the main single-player story mode, I would be surprised if there weren't a deeper level of second-screen integration there. Really looking forward to this.Game & Wario What it is: The Wario Ware series is known for its collections of three-second-long "microgames." This Wii U version retains the ridiculous, hilarious style but features games that take around 5 minutes each to play. (The name is a reference to Game & Watch, the early LCD-based portable games made by Nintendo.) Second screen features: The second screen is deeply integrated into the gameplay of each of the four mini-games shown in the E3 demo. In one game, you pull your finger back on the screen as if you were drawing back a slingshot, aiming with the controller to launch your fire at waves of advancing aliens. In the next, you play a downhill skier, tilting the controller to guide him down the mountain; you only watch the touch screen while everyone else in the room sees a cinematic view of the action on the TV. In the next, you're tasked with taking photos of "criminals" in a crowded city scene; you have to scan the TV to find them, then take a picture with the Wii U controller acting as the zoomed-in viewfinder. Finally, a multiplayer game casts one player as a thief, and other players have to watch the TV and identify the one human-controlled character in the crowd of a hundred computer bots. Is it any good? Nintendo didn't even mention Game & Wario in its press conference, which is strange because it's one of the best showcases of "asymmetric gameplay" so far. All four minigames were great fun and very funny with multiple people.Project P-100 What it is: A unique action game from Platinum Games (Mad World, Bayonetta), P-100 has you lead a humorous squad of oddball superheroes through a city, smashing up robots by putting your team into different formations. Second screen features: By drawing patterns on the touchscreen, you can arrange your distinctly Pikmin-like army of superheroes into different patterns. Surrounding hostages by drawing a circle lets you save them. You can also form your crew into large weapons, à la Voltron, by drawing lines on the screen – a straight line turns them into a huge sword, a sideways L into a handgun, etc. When you enter a building, the game gets a little different – you see just an over-the-shoulder POV shot of one character, and you jump and run through the building that way. It's a clever contrast to the bird's-eye-view outdoor levels. Is it any good? Gamers might ask why Platinum is making a cartoonish game rather than its typical realistic and violent ones, but the gameplay on display at E3 was quite polished and fun. Looking very much forward to this.New Super Mario Bros. U What it is: Nintendo's multiplayer version of the classic 2-D Mario game was one of Wii's best-selling games, and it clearly hopes to rekindle that success by launching New Super Mario Bros. U on the same day as Wii U. Second screen features: Someone else needs the TV? You can play the entire game on the small screen if you want to. But there's an asymmetric mode that's more interesting: Four players can play using Wiimotes, while a fifth player watches the action on the small screen and helps out by tapping the screen to add blocks that others can jump on, to help clear tough obstacles. Is it any good? Well, Mario games are never bad. Although you might think the "Boost Mode," as described above, would ruin the game's challenge, it's not nearly as easy as it looks to use it effectively. Read our complete hands-on report for more on that.Netflix What it is: Well, it's not a videogame, but it could end up being one of the most-used features of the Wii U: Netflix said in 2011 that a whopping 25 percent of its users stream movies on the Wii. Second screen features: If it's designed properly, the Netflix app on Wii U could be the best one ever. While waiting for an appointment in Nintendo's booth, I got a demo of a prototype Netflix client. You can scroll through your instant queue, browse categories or type in searches all using the Wii U touch screen. Clicking on the movie's box art starts it playing on the TV – and if you want to, you can tap a button and the playback will instantly move from the television to the Wii U controller screen. Is it any good? Even in its unfinished state, Netflix was an encouraging demonstration of how the integrated screens of Wii U offer a real upgrade to existing apps.Rayman Legends What it is: The sequel to the four-player platforming game Rayman Origins will probably appear on many platforms, as is Ubisoft's modus operandi, but for now it was shown simply on Wii U with a string of unique features. __Second screen features:__The demo was a fast-paced string of unique ideas for how two players could enjoy the game in tandem but do completely different things. The Ubisoft rep took control of Rayman on the TV, jumping and climbing through hazards. Using only the touch screen, I had to do a variety of things to help him: raising and lowering platforms, telling him about hazards that he couldn't see, manipulating a giant maze of spikes by rotating my controller. It all finished up with a sequence in which he ran through a gauntlet of hazards while I tapped icons on the screen to the beat of the music. Is it any good? I didn't expect to be blown away by Rayman Legends, but the sheer amount of creativity on display in the demo won me over. Hopefully the full game can extend these ideas out into a well-paced 8-hour experience.ZombiU What it is: Besides having a terrible name, ZombiU is a Left 4 Dead-styled zombie FPS. A solo player can tackle the campaign using the Wii U controller for various actions, but there's also a unique multiplayer mode that was shown at E3. Second screen features: The asymmetric multiplayer on the show floor went like this: One player, with the GamePad, had an overhead view of the level and sent zombies out to attack the other player, sort of like a real-time strategy game. The other player (me, in this case) played a first-person shooter, attempting to capture waypoints without being devoured by the approaching zombies. Is it any good? While the multiplayer concept is certainly unique, ZombiU needs a lot more polish. The graphics weren't especially attractive and the framerate was remarkably chunky. It needs to feel a lot smoother than it did at E3.Assassin's Creed III What it is: It's pretty much the same game that will be released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this year, the latest entry in Ubisoft's highly successful series about assassins throughout history. This one takes place during the American Revolution. Second screen features: Not much, actually. There's a map on the lower screen that Ubisoft points out shows more information than the mini-map on the TV. Also, you can tap tiny, tiny icons on the touch screen to switch weapons. I don't think they showed anything particularly exciting. Is it any good? I hope that Assassin's Creed III gets back to what made Assassin's Creed II such a strong game, and from what Ubisoft has shown so far it seems like it should. From the E3 demo, it seems like the strength of the game, and not Wii U enhancements, will be the big draw.NintendoLand What it is: Nintendo calls this the Wii Sports of the Wii U's launch, the game that will teach first-time players about the different ways that the Wii U GamePad controller can be integrated into gameplay. It's 12 small games, each built around a classic Nintendo franchise. Second screen features: As you might expect, the second screen is an integral part of each game. Players use it to fling throwing stars, shoot arrows and much more. You can read a more in-depth take on three of the NintendoLand mini-games in our hands-on report. Is it any good? While Nintendo fans were dismissive of this game at E3, probably because Nintendo showed it instead of a new hard-core focused title like Metroid or Zelda. And it's not nearly as instantly understandable as Wii Sports. But there's no escaping the fact that the demos were actually quite challenging and fun.

Each week intrepid reporter Rachel Grunwell will try out a new form of exercise to bring you the lowdown.
What is it?
Indian-inspired dance to Hindi music. Bollywood comes from the name Bombay (the city now called Mumbai) and Hollywood. It's a name popularly used for the Hindi-language film industry.
What's needed? A sari or comfortable clothing and shoes.
The experience: The inner-girlie-girl in me is loving putting on some serious bling to get the best fun out of a Bollywood dance lesson.
Dance teacher Ella Kumar has stepped me into a pretty petticoat and then expertly spun my body around and around into a blood-red and gold sari. She stacks dozens of sparkly bangles on my wrists and puts a bindi decoration on my forehead (to show I'm married).
The gorgeous silk sari feels soft and the gold detailing reflects the light like glitter. It's also very special. It's Ella's mother's wedding sari, which is among many Ella sometimes loans to dance students for end-of-course performances. She doesn't believe in hiding her saris in a dusty drawer, but shares them so they're celebrated. However, she says students tend to want to buy their own by the end of her lessons.
I look like I could step out of Jai Ho, the song-and-dance scene in Slumdog Millionaire. Except I'm not in a train station, like in the movie, but in the Mt Roskill Grammar School hall.
I may look the part, but can this white girl Bollywood dance? Ella reckons anyone can.
Several non-Indian women are in this group of nine. One is a social worker who's here for fun, fitness and has found it " a great way to relieve stress". Another works in the dentistry industry and found herself here after flipping a coin over this or badminton - "and I'm so glad I did this. It's so much more exciting!" she says with a laugh.
Ella has danced since she was a girl and has taught Bollywood dance at Mt Roskill Grammar School for five years.
She also teaches other fitness classes here, something she's done since she graduated from the school in 1983 and went on to gain post graduate qualifications in this field.
She kicks off the lesson with some high-energy Hindi music and then stands at the front of the class, her back to us, so we can follow her moves.
We start with things like gentle hand gestures and use "traditional hands" by placing each thumb on its corresponding first digit. There's some head turning, but Ella jokes, "no whiplash movements. You don't want to lose your neck!"
It's not long before I'm twirling, swirling, spinning and grinning.
There's a move called "pat-the-dog", where my hands mimic patting the pet. And another named "adjusting lightbulbs", where you twist your wrists like you would when screwing in lightbulbs. This actually looks elegant if you don't think about the description! My husband would laugh that this will be the first time he's seen me do such a thing.
Later, there's some finger pointing (I'm good at that) and even some hip-thrusting sexy moves (this must be the Hollywood bit), but the dancing is mostly graceful, girly, elegant and captivating.
Ella reminds everyone to make their movements looser, quicker and more fluid during the six-minute song that we practise over and over.
She reckons taller people with longer limbs have to "work harder" to reach each position.
Near the end, Ella stops the music and tells us we are "marvellous", but asks "which steps do you want to fix up?" So we go over a couple of the movements until the girls master them. Ella assures me the class will have the beautiful Bollywood dance fine-tuned by the end of the seven-week course. They will be performing their song at the Auckland Diwali Festival (October 13-14) at the Aotea Quarter, off Queen St. The festival features live performance, food and craft celebrating all things Indian.
By the end of the dance class, I know I've had a great workout. I was fumbly on a few moves as it was my first time. Ella tells me I have natural hand movements. But she's just charming, and so is her dancing. I think the corners of my mouth were upturned for an hour.
How much? $70 for seven classes, held every Tuesday at 7.30pm-8.30pm. The next group starts Tuesday, October 30.
Worth it? Fabulous fun.
Try it: Mount Roskill Grammar School is on Frost Rd, Mount Roskill, ph (09) 621 0055.
Rating: 10/10

Textile Effluent Degradation by Photoelectrolytical Process
Methodologies used in textile effluents treatment consist in different ways: biological, chemical and physical-chemical. Thus, electrochemical and photochemical processes are promising such as an alternative or complementary treatment. Therefore, an experimental photoelectrolytic system was used to treat a simulated effluent containing Remazol Navy Blue dye (C.I. Reactive Blue 89).

So, at this point in time if you're not aware of SOPA and the PIPA legislation you must be living in a cave, or don't use the internet at all, and so aren't reading this anyway. So I'm not going to bother explaining either of these bills. You know what they are.
On the bright side, they're effectively dead. What supporters they have have backed out, opposition is rampant, hell even the White House is set to shoot them down if the House or Senate were to pass them, assuming they still have the numbers to make that happen.
Unfortunately, while these particular bills seem unlikely, this is not the first nor is it likely to be the last time such things will be proposed. Which is troubling. I understand the concerns of intellectual piracy. Piracy is wrong. Period. Don't try to defend it to me, such arguments are fallacies. However, having a stranglehold on the distribution methods is not an acceptable answer.
There is a better way. I don't pretend to know just what it is, but I like to think that I am part of something that may just figure it out. Webcomics give their content away for free. I have to wonder, what would happen to sales if Hollywood used our business model? What would happen if a movie was released, officially, free for your viewing pleasure online with simultaneous release in theaters? Would theaters really suffer? As it is, no one really likes going to the movie theater. It's always full of noisy people interrupting your viewing experience, sticky floors, and that one drunk dude who inevitably pukes up his popcorn. But maybe, having seen a film at 1600×900 pixels, Jeff would gather up his six best buddies and go see what he now knew for certain to be an awesome film on the big screen, and BE HAPPY to pay the $12 for the privilege. Having seen the film for free, perhaps sales would actually spike.
Maybe that's a fantasy. I don't pretend to know for sure. But I have to say, the only way to really prevent piracy is to change how people feel about paying for content. If they don't know, or think it's crap, or simply don't care they're not going to shell out. But for quality, people will pay through the nose. Changing people's minds is the only way to bring about change. No law, no regulation, no penalty, nothing will make things change until you change their minds. Change their minds. Make them care.
So how do you make an audience, a market, care? You open up. It really is that simple, as far as I can tell. The most successful production companies are the ones that put themselves into their product, and truly wish to share it with their audiences. When you put up pay walls and lock things down with regulation and excessive licensing, you push people away. You give off the impression that you want to keep whatever media you've created for yourselves, that you only begrudgingly allow others to see it because they've bribed you with money. Is it really so surprising that there are those who wouldn't think twice about sneaking a peek without paying up?
I don't know how to end piracy. I don't know if my business model translates to any other media type. I don't even know if the webcomic business model is a viable model writ large. Perhaps it's only rare exceptions who make it work. But I do know, without hesitation that I, as a consumer, will eagerly pay top dollar for media I enjoy and/or enriches my life. And the harder it is for me to acquire my beloved movies and books and music and comics through official channels, the more likely I am to walk away.
And so in parting thoughts, I shall sum up the business model for the new millennium in four easy steps:
- Make it Awesome.
- Make it Accessible.
- ???
- Profit.

Our SSDs are split into three categories: Consumer, Client, and Enterprise. As you move from Consumer to Enterprise, a higher endurance NAND that is required for the specific applications is introduced, as well as additional features. Although each category serves a different purpose, they all get the same attention to detail and quality you expect from PNY.
Yes. Any of the SSDs can be used in a RAID array, but only certain drives run through RAID testing and should be used in a RAID array. Please contact PNY Tech Support for more information and assistance in determining the best PNY SSD to use for your workload.
No, PNY SSDs operate with standard drivers making it easy to plug into and work on most major operating systems, such as Windows and MacOS.
Yes this can be done with proper cloning software. Various software tools are publicly available on the internet to help you with the cloning process.
Each PNY SSD supports a wide range of operating systems unique to the target application. For more information, check the particular drive's product brochure.
PNY SSDs are designed to be compatible with many of the leading manufacturers and tested across numerous configuration options. If you are experiencing any difficulty, please contact PNY Tech Support to assist you.
First, you want to make sure you have the latest UEFI/BIOS for your motherboard. If using a desktop, try another SATA port. If the UEFI/BIOS has the AHCI option, try disabling to see if it helps. If none of these work, contact PNY Tech Support who will do their best to assist you.
No, it is not necessary or recommended to defrag an SSD. Since there are no physical disks, there is not need to organize the data in order to reduce seek time. SSDs have TRIM, which serves the same basic function to make your drive faster without subjecting the drive to the extra workload. Defragging an SSD will put undue wear and tear on the drive and may actually shorten its life.
If an SSD has a lower capacity, the controller will be unable to write to multiple locations at once. This is because SSDs with a lower capacity have fewer or smaller capacity NAND. To a certain extent, the faster the SSD the more operations it can do at once.
OP, or Over Provisioning, is the reserved space where the controller does its work. A higher OP drive has a higher performance and endurance, but comes at the cost of capacity. PNY's Consumer and Client drives offer a balance between performance, endurance, and capacity with a 7% OP.
There are two levels of Secure Erase: standard and enhanced. Standard Secure Erase will delete the map of the SSDs controller. Although the data will still exist on the NAND, the controller will see no data. Enhanced is the most secure version of secure erase by writing random bits to the entire drive multiple times. This ensures that none of the data will be salvageable. Performing a Secure Erase on your drive is destructive and should be used cautiously because it will make it extremely difficult to nearly impossible to read the data on the drive.

University of Malaya: Partners in Peace and Dialogue
"To bend a bamboo, start when it's still a shoot.'' It is with this Malaysian saying that the Director-General called upon students and faculty at the University of Malaya to join in crafting a new humanism for the century ahead and to shape the direction of their societies and economies, on 21 May, the first day of her official visit to Malaysia.
Irina Bokova advocated for a ''new vision of development where every woman and man feels a sense of responsibility towards others and for the safeguarding of our planet. A new humanism must contribute to relations between all regions in a world where all societies are connected.''
She affirmed that education is the most powerful way to integrate all dimensions of Malaysia's Vision 20\20 vision, an ambitious agenda to foster inclusive and equitable development, as the basis for higher growth.
Stressing that 'we need a new humanism rooted in the respect of human dignity, fundamental human rights and the diversity of cultures," the Director-General underlined the responsibility we have to promote and preserve cultural heritage in all its forms as a means to ensure respectful and peaceful cultural exchanges in an increasingly interconnected world. "Those who know and value their own culture and history are better equipped to be open and tolerant toward other cultures," she said.
South-South cooperation is another hallmark of the new development paradigm. The Director-General praised Malaysia's determination to share its experience with its neighbours, in particular through its UNESCO Category 2 science centres and the UNESCO-Malaysia Cooperation Programme, established this year.
This spirit of solidarity is also embodied in the UNESCO Club founded at the University of Malaya in 2007. Mrs Bokova signed a certificate formalizing the creation of the Malaya University UNESCO Club, that now brings together all UNESCO clubs across the country. Affirming that the Clubs were partners in peace and dialogue with UNESCO, students briefed Mrs Bokova about some of their activities, ranging from celebrations of World Philosophy Day, marking Earth Hour to organizing cultural exchange programmes.
The Director-General thanked the students for their commitment, stressing the importance of social inclusion and cultural dialogue for building peace in the globalized era.
The University of Malaya counts some 30,000 students and some 2,200 academic staff. The Director-General was welcomed by the University's Vice Chancellor and the Director of its Center for Civilizational Dialogue.

MacKay calls on Russia to exert influence to end civil war in Syria
HALIFAX -- Defence Minister Peter MacKay called on Russia on Sunday to exert influence to end the Syrian civil war, accusing Russia of standing on the sidelines while Syria is "coming apart at the seams."
MacKay told a press conference at the Halifax International Security Forum that Russia -- one of Syria's most important allies -- should use its weight to end the conflict.
"We know in Syria there are countries like Russia that could be far more proactive, who could exert considerable influence and use their weight with the (Syrian President Bashar Assad) regime to end the violence," MacKay said just after giving his closing remarks at the three-day conference.
"If Russia truly wants to be embraced as a democratic, productive member of the world community, this is a time for them to show the right stuff."
Russia has backed Syria at the United Nations Security Council by repeatedly vetoing resolutions aimed at pressuring the Syrian government to end the war.
MacKay said Prime Minister Stephen Harper has recently met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, but did not go into the details of the discussion.
On Saturday, U.S. Sen. John McCain told the security conference that he was "ashamed" as an American over the U.S. non-action in Syria.
MacKay reiterated Sunday that Canada has no plans for a military intervention in Syria.
"I... believe that there is still further diplomatic paths we can pursue. I think a military intervention is always a last resort," said MacKay. "I think Syria is something we can't take our eyes off, in spite of what may be going on right now in Israel."
The ongoing threat of war in the Middle East was at the forefront of the conference in Halifax over the weekend, which drew about 300 delegates from more than 50 countries.
For the past several days, the Gaza Strip has been under fire by Israeli rockets. About 70 people have died, including civilians.
On Sunday, Palestinian medical officials said an Israeli missile flattened a two-storey house in a residential neighbourhood of Gaza City, killing at least 11 civilians, mostly women and children.
MacKay reaffirmed Sunday that Ottawa is standing behind Israel, saying that the country "has the right to defend itself."
"A country has a right to exist, and part of that existence means protecting your population, which is what Israel is desperately trying to do," said MacKay.
Canada and Israel have recently signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding covering defence and industrial initiatives, as well as information-sharing.

About Silverthorne
Silverthorne received its name from Judge Marshal Silverthorn, who staked his gold mining claim in the valley in 1881. The "e" was added to the name in the 1930's because it was considered fashionable and chic. Over 100 years later Silverthorne continues to be "the gateway to Summit County." Officially incorporated in the 1960's, Silverthorne has grown up with the Summit County tourist industry. Silverthorne's proximity to both summer and winter activities, where all four of Summit County's world-class ski resorts within 20 minutes, make the town an ideal place to visit and live. Silverthorne's 62,000 square foot recreation center offers plenty of indoor recreation for both residents and visitors alike. Silverthorne is best known for its shopping, which should not be missed. The Silverthorne Factory Stores, with over 70 brand name shops are widely known for exceptional value, quality, and variety.

Shame on you, Eidos. You brought us the first lady of gaming when you published the first Tomb Raider and, I think it's safe to say that because of that, we all expected great things from you. The sad reality is that Eidos titles tend to run on the path of mediocrity. Sure, series like Hitman and TimeSplitters have been peppered into their library, but the vast majority are inexcusable games (Backyard Wrestling, I'm looking at you). Maybe the few good titles can excuse the rest if the poor games are on a smaller scale, but considering the ratio of good to poor these days, it's tough to look the other way.
The latest Eidos title, 25 to Life, is really something that should have been snubbed early on. The game follows the trend of trying to bring some urban flavor to the selection of titles gamers can choose from, much like GTA: San Andreas. Rather than capturing the entrancing stories found in genre staples like Boyz n the Hood, we are stuck with something found in a Seag-awful waste of time and celluloid like Half Past Dead -- a yarn filled with so many clichés and wrapped in a box of ridiculously bad game mechanics, it's shocking that anyone would allow this game to be made.
The narrative guides gamers through the eyes of multiple characters including the ne'er-do-well trying to get a fresh start and do right by his family, but is dragged back into the life of crime for one last gig; a thuggish criminal bent on stealing and killing cops; a seasoned veteran of the police force who wants to do nothing more than clean up the streets; and a hard-boiled cop, fresh off of probation with a chip on her shoulder and something to prove. Sound familiar? It should -- it borrows heavily from the most notorious formulas known to this type of story. Not only is it lazy in developing any sort of intrigue, the story itself is just boring.
Okay, so the story is drab, but what about the actual in-game action? That should at least have some good ol' thoughtless, senseless violence making things at least passably fun, right? Wrong.
For starters, the visuals are truly some of the worst of this generation -- blocky, jaggy character models and environments without too much detail while offering up nothing to dazzle the eye whatsoever. On top of that, I'm not sure if it's a filter, or the television used or just flat out bad design, but there's this haze that can really throw a fella off. You know when you go swimming without goggles for a long time and when you get out, everything looks cloudy? That's what this game looks like the whole way through.
To complement the squirrelly visuals, the developers churned out some of the cheapest audio in recent times. Pistols firing sound like snaps, machine guns sound like some guy was making machine gun noises and shotgun blasts sounds like helicopters are passing overhead. The voice-over performances were slouches too- not only are the lines poorly written, their deliveries are jilted and wooden, reminiscent of the C-List acting from the original Resident Evil --these performances make Ja Rule look like he's got acting talent. The difference here is that while the performances in RE were sketchy at best, the game held it's own, providing a fun and challenging experience. 25 to Life, on the other hand, tries to be edgy by drowning players in a sea of obscenity and violence that it only comes off as an insult. Just because everybody swears non-stop, that doesn't make it anything close to being an interesting depiction of life on the street.

The birth of a baby can trigger a jumble of powerful emotions, from excitement and joy to fear and anxiety. But it can also result in something you might not expect — depression.
Many new moms experience the "baby blues" after childbirth, which commonly include mood swings and crying spells that fade quickly. But some new moms experience a more severe, long-lasting form of depression known as postpartum depression. Rarely, an extreme form of postpartum depression known as postpartum psychosis develops after childbirth.
Postpartum depression isn't a character flaw or a weakness. Sometimes it's simply a complication of giving birth. If you have postpartum depression, prompt treatment can help you manage your symptoms — and enjoy your baby.
