Abstract: Digital platforms are layered modular information technology architectures that support disruption. Digital platforms are particularly disruptive, as they facilitate the quick release of digital innovations that may replace established innovations. Yet, despite their support for disruption, we have not fully understood how such digital platforms can be strategically designed and configured to facilitate disruption. To that end, this thesis endeavors to unravel disruptive digital platforms from the supply perspective that are grounded on strategic digital platform design elements. I suggest that digital platforms leverage on three strategic design elements (i.e., business, architecture, and technology design) to create supportive conditions for facilitating disruption. To shed light on disruptive digital platforms, I opted for payment platforms as my empirical context and unit of analysis. Through primary and secondary data sources, findings suggest that digital platforms with an Analyzer and Prospector strategy profile have favorable conditions to facilitate disruption. It is envisioned that insights gleaned from multiple cases will contribute towards bridging existing knowledge gaps in strategic management, digital platforms, and open innovation literature.

Abstract: This paper derives a theoretical framework for consideration of both the technologically driven dimensions of mobile payment solutions, and the associated value proposition for customers. Banks promote traditional payment instruments whose value proposition is the management of risk for both consumers and merchants. These instruments are centralised, costly and lack decision support functionality. The ubiquity of the mobile phone has provided a decentralised platform for managing payment processes in a new way, but the value proposition for customers has yet to be elaborated clearly. This inertia has stalled the design of sustainable revenue models for a mobile payments ecosystem. Merchants and consumers in the meantime are being seduced by the convenience of online and mobile payment solutions. Adopting the purchase and payment process as the unit of analysis, the current mobile payment landscape is reviewed with respect to the creation and consumption of customer value. From this analysis, a framework is derived juxtaposing customer value, related to what is being paid for, with payment integration, related to how payments are being made. The framework provides a theoretical and practical basis for considering the contribution of mobile technologies to the payments industry. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8348

Abstract: ITIL has been proposed and indeed adopted by many as a framework for solving the problem of IT Service Management. It has been available for organizations for more than 10 years and initial adoption has been high. However, consultancy surveys of ITIL adoption, implementation and institutionalization show that there are only few complete and institutionalized ITIL implementations. This paper presents work in progress on a comprehensive ITIL literature review, focussing on critical success factors and benefits documented in scientific literature about ITIL implementation. Based on this, the paper presents a draft framework aiming at assisting organizations during their decisions regarding ITIL adoption, implementation and institutionalization.

A Comparative Study of Four European SolutionsKazan, Erol; Damsgaard, Jan (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper focuses on the triumph march of mobile phones that currently are annexing music players, navigation devices, and cameras as separate physical objects. The next target is set on payment. Through synthesizing available literature, we construct a framework for studying digital payment platforms that combines platform, technology and business design aspects. The framework is applied to conduct a comparative case study of digital payment platforms. Four types of market actors are considered: banks, mobile network operators, merchants, and startups, which are incumbents and disrupters in the payment industry. These actors issue four types of payment systems, and we can observe that three of four platforms types can be classified as multi-sided platforms (MSP). All alternatives seek foothold by issuing evolutionary payment instruments, which are intertwined with digital payment platforms. By hosting third-party services, payment instruments are evolving from single-purpose to multi-functional ones. Our research extends existing payment literature from the MSP perspective to emphasize certain digital payment platform components, which impact strategies and complementary products.

A Comparative Study of Centralized & Decentralized Digital Payment ProvidersKazan, Erol; Tan, Chee-Wee; Lim, Eric T. K. (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Digital platforms are disruptive information technology (IT) artifacts that erode conventional business logic associated with traditional market structures. This paper presents a framework for examining the disruptive potential of digital platforms whereby we postulate that the strategic interplay of governance regimes and platform layers is deterministic of whether disruptive derivatives are permitted to flourish. This framework has been employed in a comparative case study between centralized (i.e., PayPal) and decentralized (i.e., Coinkite) digital payment platforms to illustrate its applicability and yield propositions on the nature and impact of digital platform disruptions. Preliminary findings indicate that centralized digital platforms attempt to create unique configurals to obtain monopolistic power by tightly coupling platform layers, which are difficult to replicate. Conversely, decentralized digital platforms purposely decouple platform layers, to foster open innovation and accelerate market disruption. This paper therefore represents a first concrete step aimed at unravelling the disruptive potential of digital platforms. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9026

Abstract: Digital platforms are disruptive IT artifacts, because they facilitate the quick release of innovative platform derivatives from third parties (e.g., apps). This study endeavours to unravel the disruptive potential, caused by distinct designs and configurations of digital platforms on market environments. We postulate that the disruptive potential of digital platforms is determined by the degree of alignment among the business, technology and platform profiles. Furthermore, we argue that the design and configuration of the aforementioned three elements dictates the extent to which open innovation is permitted. To shed light on the disruptive potential of digital platforms, we opted for digital payment platforms as our unit of analysis. Through interviews with experts and payment providers, we seek to gain an in-depth appreciation of how contemporary digital payment platforms are designed and configured to foster open innovation. We envision that this study bridges existing knowledge gaps between digital platform and innovation literature. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9407

Literature Review, Taxonomy, and Research AgendaKunst, Katrine; Vatrapu, Ravi (Atlanta, GA, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Recent years have seen an increased sharing of consumptive practices, experiences and evaluations on social media platforms. Such socially shared consumption can range from electronic word-of-mouth to formal online reviews as well as automated product mentions facilitated by social media applications Based on a review of extant emerging literature on this topic as well as of literature on relevant topics such as social influence, online reviews, theories of the extended self and conspicuous consumption, this paper proposes a new concept, "socially shared consumption" and a taxonomy for better understanding and analysing the growing phenomenon of consumers' social sharing of consumption on social media platforms The taxonomy consists of five dimensions of socially shared consumption: Phase, Automation, Formality, Expressiveness, and Sentiment. The primary contributions of this research-in-progress paper are (a) description and definition of the new concept of socially shared consumption, (b) preliminary proposal of a taxonomy of socially shared consumption, and (c) outline of a research agenda to conduct theory-based empirical studies of socially shared consumption phenomena.

The Role of Decision-Making and AccountabilityWang, Cancan; Medaglia, Rony; Zheng, Lei (Frederiksberg, 2016)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The increasing complexity of public issues and the rapid advancement of IT development and services (e.g., social media, big data) put high demands on government to develop internal capacity to evaluate, respond to, and implement new technologies and internal processes. Moreover, as governments in the last decades have increasingly transferred their capacities externally through outsourcing projects, following the tenets of New Public Management, they are often left with reduced skill sets and limited capacity. This has created challenges for governments to adapt within a short time to deal with potentially disruptive changes, especially in the implementation of new information technologies. Confronted with such challenges, governments have sought to deliver public services through new working relationships with private and non-government organizations. Such relationships are characterized by the voluntary combination of separate private and public organizations into a coherent service delivery system (Dawes and Eglene 2004), namely the public-private collaboration. In such new organizational set-ups, established mechanisms of governance that imply enhancing control and enforcing procedures are found no longer suitable for reacting and adapting quickly to changes in the environment (Gong and Janssen 2012). Governments are thus expected to adopt new organizational structures in order to accommodate the evolving and dynamic collaborative relationships around government.

Abstract: This paper explores the relationship between TV viewership ratings for Scandinavian's most popular talk show, Skavlan and public opinions expressed on its Facebook page. The research aim is to examine whether the activity on social media affects the number of viewers per episode of Skavlan, how the viewers are affected by discussions on the Talk Show, and whether this creates debate on social media afterwards. By analyzing TV viewer ratings of Skavlan talk show, Facebook activity and text classification of Facebook posts and comments with respect to type of emotions and brand sentiment, this paper identifes patterns in the users' real-world and digital world behaviour.

Business and IT Managers' Technological Frames Related to Cloud ComputingKhalil, Sabine; Winkler, Till J.; Xiao, Xiao (Frederiksberg, 2017)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: While cloud computing is becoming a mainstream IT sourcing option, especially large companies struggle with the internal governance of cloud and the issue of shadow IT. This study takes a technological frames perspective to contrast the knowledge and expectations that business versus IT stakeholders have regarding cloud IT. Our interview data from 20 business and IT managers display the incongruences between these two groups' technological frames and how this relates to their governing actions: While business managers emphasize the benefits frames of cloud computing and tend to undermine IT governance, IT managers stress its threat frames and their desire to strengthen the IT governance framework. We discuss how these frame incongruences are related and how they can be resolved. This discussion contributes to the literature a stakeholder-specific view that may help understand the duality of the shadow IT phenomenon. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

From Vendors to CustomersRiis, Philip Holst (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Enterprise Systems (ES) are generally considered the price of entry for running a business. With the increased scope of ESs to encompass nearly every function or business process of a modern organization, an increasing number of different users are adopting and using the systems. These users occupy a number of different organizational roles which include a wide variety of different tasks in organizations and have very different requirements for ESs. To ensure a better fit between users and ESs, a number of ES vendors have begun to focus on reflecting the concept of organizational roles of users in their systems. Limited research has, however, addressed these "role-oriented" ESs; this dissertation attempts to provide a better understanding of them by studying their design, implementation, and use. The research design for this dissertation is based on Case Studies and the Grounded Theory Method with qualitative empirical data collected across three types of actors in an ES ecosystem: Vendors; partner companies; and customers. The findings are primarily presented in six appended research papers that are aimed at both researchers and practitioners. The main contribution of the dissertation is an improved understanding of: Representation of organizational roles in the deep and surface structures of ESs; the mapping, configuration, and tailoring of predefined systems roles to fit actual roles of users in organizations; and the potential benefits and role-related misfits of role-oriented ESs. Through discussion of the findings, the dissertation also illustrates how the design of role-oriented ESs is influenced by the different actors in an ecosystem. The dissertation also illustrates how systems, organizations, processes, and roles can be aligned during implementation by shifting basis and conceptual focus in the requirements analysis. Finally, the dissertation explains the impact of roleoriented technology on organizational performance and how this technology may influence the existing perception of the role taking process in organizations.

Comparing digital piracy to legal alternatives for film and musicVeitch, Robert; Constantiou, Ioanna (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Technologies enabling digital piracy have expanded the variety of options available to users when deciding how to access a product. As a result, access-mode decisions for film and music are broader than for other goods where the piracy option is not as prevalent. This paper presents a model of access-mode decisions for film and music which integrates elements of previous digital piracy models and expands upon them to reflect the decision?s complexity. We depict the access-mode decision as being influenced by the user?s product desire, price perceptions, perceived risks, internal regulators of behaviour, resources and legal availability. We test the model for film and music using causal data of access-mode decisions collected from students at two Danish universities. Our findings indicate that the economic considerations of price perception and legal availability are the most consistent factors in influencing the access-mode decision across different legal options. The paper concludes with an outline for future research. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8569

Abstract: User experience measurement is important for HCI research and for the in-dustry that produce interactive services and products. We want to develop a context-aware user experience measurement. In this paper, we propose a user experience measurement scale, and discuss how to validate the scale in different contexts, implement the scale in context aware prototypes, and evaluate the prototypes in real-life user contexts. The main contribution of this paper is to combine existing concepts of user experience and context-aware computing in one context aware user experi-ence measure. We are not going to develop new definitions of neither UX nor context-awareness, but simply combine the two. The background for our paper is the importance of enabling organizations to provide high quality interactive experiences to customers and citizens; to empower citizens in our emerging digital societies to assess and be critical towards interactive solutions presented to them; and to support HCI re-searchers and others with reliable and valid instruments to score, compare, and analyse user experience. We focus on measurement of UX in the shopping context(s). URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8706

A Strategic Analysis FrameworkJetzek, Thorhildur; Avital, Michel; Bjørn-Andersen, Niels (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Government data has been accumulated for centuries in protected repositories and registries as public record and a matter of civil order. Recently, the Open Government Data (OGD) movement has emerged as a group that focuses on facilitating open access to government data. Proponents of OGD initiatives argue that it can strengthen democracy and improve government through increased participation, collaboration and transparency. OGD advocates are also motivated by its potential contribution to greater productivity and economic growth through increased government efficiency and the creation of new businesses and services. However, as most OGD initiatives are relatively recent, the key questions regarding the value propositions and return on investment of these initiatives remain unanswered. In this theory development paper, we propose a strategic options framework that offers criteria for generating and prioritizing OGD initiatives. The framework can guide structured analysis of the economic and social impacts of OGD with an emphasis on its value propositions for both the public and private sectors. Building on a literature review and fieldwork-based anecdotal evidence, we expect OGD initiatives to generate value and substantial returns through increased transparency, efficiency of government activities, citizen participation and entrepreneurial activity.

Hardt, Daniel; Asher, Nicholas; Hunter, Julie (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper compares two views on the status of indices in syntactic and logical representations. On a structural view, indices are syntactic formants on a par with node labels and phrase bracketings, and are thus a part of the logical forms that are derived from syntactic representations. On the process view, an index is not a syntactic object at all, but rather, an indication of the output of a resolution process. In this paper we argue that a recent body of data provides a clear empirical basis for distinguishing between these two views of indices. We argue that cases of sloppy VP ellipsis pose insurmountable problems for the structural view of indices, while these problems do not arise for the process view. Furthermore, we show that this resolution process is constrained by the semantics of various discourse relations. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8846

Three Meditations for Experiential ComputingBødker, Mads (Atlanta, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper uses three meditations to contemplate walking, sensing and participation as three ways with which we can extend the notion of 'experiential computing' proposed by Yoo (2010). By using the form of meditations, loosely associated concepts that are part introspective and part 'causative', i.e. aimed as some form of change in perspective within Information Systems Research, the paper weaves empirical incidents from fieldwork with theoretical concepts on movement, sensuality, and embodiment, suggesting directions for methodologies and techniques to be pursued if experiential computing is intended to also inform the design of technologies for the future. By emphasizing the senses and the body and their importance to an extended notion of sensory apprenticeship (Pink, 2009), the paper suggests alternative routes to knowing and representation in IS related fieldwork.

A cross-cultural study of the relation between users´ cognitive style, context of use, and information architecture of local websitesNawaz, Ather (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Increasing globalization and technological development has led companies and people across the globe to connect through the global internet community. However, people with different cultural backgrounds may perceive the same information in different ways. One of the hurdles to use websites efficiently is the indifferent structures of information on website, and their relation with the characteristics of intended users and the context of use for the websites. The purpose of this dissertation is to assist HumanNComputer Interaction (HCI) practitioners and researchers with better design of website structures for user groups with different cultural backgrounds. This dissertation looks into issues related to website user experience (UX) and focus on how the structuring of information is seen from local users' perspectives. In particular, it attempts to look into the alignment between websites' information architecture (IA) and users' views of website information structure, by applying a crossNcultural and context of use perspective on the UX of websites in three countries: Pakistan, Malaysia, and Denmark. The researcher investigates to what degree users' cognitive styles and contexts of use are aligned with local websites' information architecture, and how this (lack of) alignment shapes the resulting UX.

text: Wednesday, September 05, 2012 Patients With Cancer Not Discussing Exercise With Oncologists Despite evidence of the positive effect that exercise can have on cancer care and recovery, many patients with cancer are reluctant to exercise and few discuss it with their oncologists, according to a Mayo Clinic study published in the Journal of Pain and Symptom Management. The study is part of a series of investigations looking at exercise habits among patients with cancer. For this investigation, researchers qualitatively analyzed semistructured interviews with 20 adults (half male and half aged 65 years or older) with Stage IIIB or IV nonsmall cell lung cancer. Participants were questioned about their levels of activity, the influence of their symptoms on their activities, perceived barriers and facilitators for exercise, and exercise-related instructions received from their professional caregivers. "Participants overwhelmingly cited usual daily activities as their source of 'exercise,'" say the authors. Symptoms, particularly treatment-related, discouraged participation, with fear of harm being a significant concern only among younger women. Participants recognized exercise as important for physical and mental well being but seldom as a means to mitigate symptoms. Although respondents said they preferred to receive guidance from their oncologist, none reported receiving more than general encouragement to "stay active." Participants accepted a lack of direction as approval of their current activity levels. Additionally, participants appeared less receptive to guidance from ancillary health professionals, say the authors. Comments The current medical delivery system in this country seem to be stagnant in the 20th century model where most of the M.Ds have not adopted the wholistic approach to manage their patients. The challenge is upon us to continue to educate these physicians/specialists or primary care M.Ds and insurance companies about the the available evidence based rehab services. Many of them do not have time to look at rehab. research papers or articles. Our patients also need to hear it from us or from all clinicians.

Their three-year-old Mobilize Design & Architecture on W. Broadway has designed several significant projects over its lifetime. More are in the pipeline.
"I think we've made it through the hard times," said Ford, a North High and University of Minnesota graduate who lives on the North Side. "There are opportunities here. And we need more professionals, more homeowners, more businesses, small and large."
Ford and Witt, who also lives in north Minneapolis, worked together at two Minneapolis firms before striking out on their own on W. Broadway, the frayed-edge main drag that once was one of Minnesota's biggest commercial arteries. The neighborhood is ripe for redevelopment, but big plans for Broadway were scuttled by the recession.
A few small developers have focused on one building at a time, and often have had to scramble for commercial tenants in a low-income area hard hit by the residential real estate implosion and related mortgage fraud. Crime also has made economic stability a block-by-block challenge. But, as we learned on rebounding E. Franklin and E. Lake streets in south Minneapolis, commerce and customers trump crime. And that's the vision up north.
Ford and Witt are planning and designing the retail-residential complex on Penn Avenue N. and Golden Valley Road planned by Devean George, the North Side native and Augsburg College graduate who has returned home from the NBA to start nonprofit and for-profit real estate ventures. And they designed the refurbished Five Points complex at W. Broadway and Penn, the Venture North Bike Shop and several other renovated buildings in the area.
"We've put our roots down, and we're in north Minneapolis for the long haul," Witt said. "We've got projects that will keep us going. We could use more. We put our money where our mouths were … just as the economy went bust for architects in 2010. But we see in north Minneapolis … a renaissance in the early stages. We want to be at the forefront."
Talk about your Minnesota Nice.
Minneapolis ad agency Periscope is reuniting forces with prodigal daughter Jenifer Anhorn as the agency's new vice president assigned to promote the Periscope brand with existing and new clients and in the worlds of traditional and social media.
Anhorn was on Periscope's management team for 16 years until she joined Papa Murphy's International in 2010 as chief marketing officer for the Vancouver-based take 'n' bake pizza chain.
Under Anhorn's watch last year, Periscope was replaced as Papa Murphy's advertising agency of record after a nearly eight-year run with the takeout chain.
But all is forgiven.
"We're thrilled to have Jenifer back at Periscope," said agency CEO Greg Kurowski. "She's a hands-on collaborative leader."
"This [was] an easy decision for me," said Anhorn.
After a successful in-store promotion assignment for big mattress maker Sealy Posturepedic, Little & Co. has signed on as the marketing agency of record.
Sealy Chief Marketing Officer Jodi Allen said Little, which has roots in design, was instrumental in changing Sealy's in-store approach through a successful "relaunch" of the brand that brought the "product story" to life through innovative headboard displays, point-of-purchase information and other pieces that helped the sales force peddle mattresses.
Little Chief Executive Joe Cecere said: "Top brands such as Sealy, working with the nation's leading retailers, struggle to reach the consumer with a simplified, consistent brand story every day. Using our design principles, we were able to break through the noise, engage the sales force, and deliver."
Several Twin Cities marketing firms have national mattress accounts. This is no sleeping matter. Little, with about 20 employees, has seen revenue grow from about $3 million a decade ago to an estimated $10 million this year.
• Robert Buss of Diversified Growth Investors reports that 150 investment professionals, up from 120 last year, are signed up for the Aug. 1 InvestMNt 2013, the second annual bazaar that will bring together several dozen Minnesota public companies and their managements with investors. The CFA Society of Minnesota, the sponsor, last year brought back the sort of regional investment conference that hasn't occurred often since the days of Dain Rauscher and Piper Jaffray and the former IDS Financial Services, which had their own versions of regional-company conferences. However, this conference is not a brokerage-sponsored conference, limited to client companies. It's sponsored by the local investment society to put public companies in front of professional investors for a small fee without a third party and without the pressure of commissions, Buss said.
• Social entrepreneur Jim Rettew has launched www.barnraisings.com, which has been described as a Kickstarter-type crowdfunding approach for nonprofits. Rettew said he got the idea from the Amish tradition of mobilizing neighbors to build a barn together, as well as the cooperative approach to building a house by Habitat for Humanity. This promising work in progress features an initial group of about a dozen nonprofits and microbusinesses trying to fund projects. Barnraising charges the recipient 6 percent of the money raised.

As I was driving back home from school today, I heard on National Public Radio that April 25th is World Malaria Day (also, get more information here).
To quote from The Financial Times:
"More than 40 per cent of the world's population is at risk from malaria with about 500 million cases every year and more than 1 million deaths in sub-Saharan Africa."
Since I'm taking my Intermediate English class to the computer lab on Friday, and all of them come from countries where malaria is quite active, I thought I'd put together a quick list of sites for them to visit.
I've divided this "The Best…" list into two sections — one with sites that are accessible to English Language Learners, and the other sharing teacher resources that include materials that could be modified for ELL's.
Here are my choices for The Best Resources For Learning About World Malaria Day:
The CBBC Newsround has two short and accessible articles on malaria:
ESL Holiday Lessons has an activity on Malaria Awareness that provides audio support for the text.
That same lesson includes online exercises.
Breaking News English also has an online lesson for ELL's on Malaria in Africa.
It, too, has a follow-up online exercise.
Where Malaria Still Kills is a New York Times slideshow.
Worldwide Malaria Deaths is an interactive map.
A Brief, Animated History Of Malaria Drugs is an animation I've embedded below that's from NPR that's actually pretty interesting (if, for some reason, the embed code is not working, you can see it here).

ESL Printables has some good resources for ELL's on malaria.
Here's a pretty thorough infographic on malaria.
The Nobel Prize site has a related interactive.
The Malaria Challenge is a…challenging game.
As always, feedback is welcome.

To go along with the lesson I submitted on Regular Show, I thought I would draw and upload some tutorials of the two main characters. Unfortunately, there really isn't too much info on these teens that would make this description long or interesting to read. So, I will give you the 411 on the character description as I can, and I will even let you know who I compare each character to. For starters, let's learn "how to draw Rigby" which is the raccoon of the two, and he is also the most bad mannered, and craziest of all. He doesn't have any shame and he certainly doesn't care who he offends whatsoever. Like his best friend Mordecai, Rigby is a teenage disaster that tries to cope with everyday life, and all the drama that may come his way. He sort of reminds me of Butthead, because he is one hundred percent off the wall and out of control. To draw Rigby, all you have to keep in mind is that his look never changes, which means you can draw his face the same way every time. The only thing you might want to change once in a while, is the crazy expressions on his face. Keep that in mind, and you should have no problem drawing this Regular Show character at all. I guess that does it for now, when I get to watch the series I will fill you in on some more personality traits for Rigby. For now, all you can do is tackle this lesson, and be the first to learn how to draw this Regular Show character with ease. Peace peeps, and be sure to enbjoy the rest of your drawing day!
DragoArt members upload artwork and drawing tutorials! They are also allowed to leave comments on tutorials, profiles, etc. Many more features, as well; it's way better than just being a boring guest! Register Now!

text: Although sitting at the front of a computer is a component of my daily tasks, I always remind myself I am a layman when enter windoz territory. There is a fresh reminder this morning when I tried to suspend one of outlook accounts. I picked up outlook as a temporary solution because at a early time there was difficulty to connect evolution to exchange 2007. For simplicity, I moved other pop3 accounts to outlook too. That serviced the purposes. Since last 2 months, evolution improved a lot with evolution-mapi and davmail as a supplementary option, pop and exchange 2007 mails work well with evolution. I shifted back these pop3 and exchange 2007 accounts back to evolution. I still keep outlook connected to the exchange server as a backup but have to suspend other pop3 account. That was a naught task. I looked at outlook, and google for hints, Google was hopeless. Most posts were not working, except one claimed to be solution but have to pay it. That's back to square one. search outlook help, luck me. get a hint from Tool -> Read/Receive Settings.

Besides being one of the most prestigious universities nationwide, the University of California, Los Angeles contains a number of picturesque photography locations for the couple that wants to take a walk down memory lane taking a walk down the aisle. As you wander around the campus with your bridal party and wedding photographer, you'll find countless opportunities to take pictures in front of buildings like the magnificent Royce Hall. The cover for just about every University of California, Los Angeles brochure, Royce Hall is approached by the expansive Dickson Plaza - a great location for a photograph of the entire bridal party. Take advantage of the lush green lawns surrounding the plaza or explore the college's renowned Mathias Botanical Gardens. The latter will add a wonderful, vibrant backdrop to your wedding photography session. Take your time in discovering (or rediscovering) the sweeping expanses of the university grounds and you'll find plenty of perfect spots to stop and take pictures. After you've finished exploring the campus, take a ride in your limousine along the brightly-lit Westwood Boulevard, a center of night-life in Los Angeles. Your party will be sure to turn some heads while your wedding photographer captures all the fun from street level. Whether you're college sweethearts or just devoted natives of the city, you'll always remember these fun-filled hours in downtown Los Angeles.
Considered the cultural epicenter of the San Gabriel Valley, Pasadena contains some of the most popular wedding hotspots in the Los Angeles area. For an elegant start to your wedding photography session, visit Castle Green- a renowned Pasadena wedding venue. Here, your photographer will find countless beautiful places to arrange the bridal party. Take a gentleman's photo in front of the fireplace in the luxurious Salon Room or seat the bridesmaids on the comfortable ottomans in the Moorish Room. The building's lush Garden is perfect for a photograph of the entire party. After you've finished your photography session here, take a leisurely stroll down the block to Pasadena Central Park. Listed on the U.S. Register of Historic Places, the park offers numerous verdant lawns for group pictures, as well as clusters of towering palm trees that your photographer can employ as a backdrop. Finally, have your limousine take the bridal party to Pasadena City Hall, only a few blocks northeast of the park. The building's stunning Mediterranean-style architecture will provide a spectacular backdrop that your photographer will hasten to take advantage of. Take pictures beside the columns at the entrance or venture inside for some photographs near the fountain. Having finished here, you'll be glad to have chosen Pasadena for your wedding day photography session.
The coastal city of Long Beach has always been a southern California favorite for couples wanting to tie the knot in the Los Angeles area. For starters, have your limo driver take the bridal party to the charming Hyatt Regency hotel, located just minutes from the waterfront. Your wedding photographer can snap some shots in the lobby, with the party seated at the bar or assembled along the length of the front desk. Afterward, step outside and take some photographs at the entrance with the dazzling glass-covered hotel or the shimmering water as a backdrop. You can then make your way toward Rainbow Harbor, where you photographer will take pictures as you walk along the palm-tree laden shoreline. In the late afternoon, the gentle sunlight will hit the water just right, creating a truly romantic backdrop for an intimate portrait of the bride and groom. Finally, amble over to the gorgeous Queen Mary ship - one of the most famous historic sites in all of Long Beach and a popular choice for Los Angeles weddings. The Queen Mary has numerous luxurious accommodations for wedding ceremonies and receptions, but even if you're not planning on getting married aboard the ship, the Queen Mary is still a great photography spot. Your wedding photographer can take pictures of the bridal party spread out along the steps leading to the hotel boat. The elegant wooden deck and railing, combined with the breathtaking view of the coast and city, will provide the perfect conditions for a photograph of the happy couple. Once you've explored the Queen Mary to your heart's content, have your limousine driver pick you up and get ready for the rest of your unforgettable day in Los Angeles!

Um, what? Remember last week, when Chip Kelly decided he would be staying at Oregon rather than jumping to the NFL after having been wined and dined by both the Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles? Well, forget all of that. ESPN's Chris Mortensen is reporting that Kelly has in fact decided to become the next head coach of the Eagles. It's not clear what exactly spurred Kelly's change of heart.
We're big fans of Kelly, and his arrival in Philadelphia suddenly makes the Eagles a team worth getting excited about. At Oregon, Kelly created the most exciting offense in college football, and we can't wait to see what kind of schemes he'll be able to cook up for LeSean McCoy, Michael Vick, and DeSean Jackson. And anyone who is still skeptical about a "college offense" working in the pros should be reminded that three teams that used a read-option scheme made it to the playoffs this year.
Most of all, though, we're hoping that Kelly will bring his hilarious playcards to the NFL.

Cheese and mushroom casserole with chicken
This casserole is simple and delicious, and makes a perfect snack during a picnic (bento anyone?)—you should use it as a basic idea for a casserole, since the pasta sauce is the stable and the most important piece of the meal. It's also a very tweak-able recipe! :-)
French toast
I believe in food recycling, i.e. when something is still edible, and there is a delicious and healthy way to eat it, then why not? We should never let our food spoil, even when there's overabundance of it! :-) Enjoy these delicious, savory French toasts, which make a perfect weekend breakfast.
Shepherd's pie
This one is a real pickle — it's extremely simple, and doesn't look spectacular, but packs a serious punch of flavor and deliciousness. You can easily upgrade or downgrade the recipe based on your liking, use different ingredients, but as long as you make ground meat under a blanket of mashed potatoes, it's gonna be fine ;-)
Creamy scrambled eggs
I love the creamy texture of scrambled eggs, but I strongly dislike the idea of eating eggs raw, so I hacked a scrambled eggs recipe to be both completely set, creamy, and pack a crunchy punch as an extra. It's so delicious with fresh bread or toast, and the consistency makes it spreadable like a cottage cheese! I come back to this recipe quite often, because it's simple, fast and feels luxurious ;-)
Sweet potato quiche
Quiche is that one recipe that I love coming back to — it's easy to make, looks delicious and tastes heavenly :-) Plus, it allows me to come up with new fillings, which makes it very versatile!
Sweet potatoes are very smooth and creamy when boiled, then baked, and shallots add a crunchy texture. The combination of them is very mild and aromatic, so make sure you spice it up to your liking!

S.S. Libra
The S.S. Libra was a cargo ship carrying Pokémon in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
Before the events of the game, it was taken by Cipher. The player eventually reaches the ship, heavily damaged and somehow stranded in the desert. After finding a lost Bonsly within the lower hulls of the ship, Team Snagem steals the player's Snag Machine, disallowing any capture of any Shadow Pokémon until the device is found.

After 4 amazing, incredibly inspiring and simply wonderful days in Tokyo I have arrived back home. I am dreading the moment of unpacking all my stuff so I came here instead >.< I already have to get back to work on Tuesday but I want to post some pictures of Tokyo and especially of what I bought there tomorrow. Now I gotta go to bed, I got a pretty bad cold and I've been awake for over 20 hours now =.=.

Campaign for Afghan Women & Girls
About Afghanistan
|(Click to view map larger)
Population: 29.82 million (World Bank)
Literacy rate: 12% (women); 39% (men) (UN Women)
Maternal Mortality rate: 460 per 100,000 live births. Lifetime risk of maternal death = 1 in 32 women (UNICEF)
Life Expectancy: 62 years (women) (UN)
Current Situation in Afghanistan
Nearly eight years have passed since the Taliban's fall from power, and despite some progress in restoring Afghan women's and girls' human rights, the situation in Afghanistan continues to be grim. Most Afghan citizens live without basic necessities, including sufficient food, clean water, electricity, roads and healthcare.
Due to severely inadequate peacekeeping forces in Afghanistan, Taliban forces are continuing to make a comeback. Since especially 2005 and now increasingly so into 2009, deadly attacks on Afghan civilians, relief workers, teachers, and private contractors have been increasing. Women aid workers, journalists, teachers, students, and officeholders have been especially targeted by extremist elements. In 2008, Taliban insurgents were arrested in the case of an acid attack against schoolgirls in the southern city of Kandahar. In 2009, a young couple was executed by the Taliban after eloping, more than 150 Afghan schoolgirls were hospitalized in three suspected gas attacks on their schools, a woman politician and women's rights activist was murdered outside her Kandahar home, and women protesters were pelted in Kabul while protesting a controversial Shia law that would have severely restricted women's rights by legalizing rape within marriage, among other provisions, if enacted.
Although Afghanistan 's literacy rate for women and girls is only 12%, educational opportunities for women and girls in Afghanistan remain scarce. Some 7 million children now attend school, and 2.5 million of them aregirls. While approximately 40% of the primary students are girls, in some areas of the country the percentage of girl students is as low as 3%, according to the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission. In addition, UNIFEM reported in November 2007 that at the secondary level, 1 girl for every 3-4 boys attends school. More than 1.2 million girls of primary school age are still not attending classes for a variety of reasons including the fact that many schools are too far away, there are inadequate facilities in the schools that do exist, many families hold the perception that education has no value, and safety concerns due to increasing attacks on girls' schools.
Afghan women also continue to have the second highest maternal mortality rates in the world (UNIFEM), with teenaged girls suffering one of the highest death rates from pregnancy and childbirth complications. One woman dies every 29 minutes in childbirth (UNIFEM).
Nearly 50% of health care workers (over 15,000) are now women and a new Department of Women and Reproductive Health was formed within the Health Ministry in 2003.
Yet, "one woman dies every 29 minutes in childbirth" in Afghanistan. This is the second highest maternal mortality rate in the world. Only 14% of women have a skilled childbirth attendant and only 12% have pre-natal care. The average woman in Afghanistan has 7.4 children. Access to health care in the rural areas is extremely poor - life expectancy is only 44 years for both women and men. (UNIFEM, Nov. 2007 Fact Sheet)
Women in the Constitution and Government
The Afghan Constitution, adopted in January 2004 includes an historic equal rights provision. But the Constitution also states "No law can be contrary to the beliefs and provisions of the sacred religion of Islam." This clause is open to the interpretation of the Afghan Supreme Court, whose first appointees were dominated by conservative religious men who, for exambanned women from singing on television. In 2006, President Karzai appointed several more moderate judges to the Court.
The Constitution also requires the election of at least two women from each province to the Wolesi Jirga (House of People); as a result, women comprise 25% of this parliamentary body. One half of presidential appointments to the Meshrano Jirga (House of Elders) also must be women. Because the president appoints one-third of the members of this body, this results in women holding 12.5% of the seats in the House of Elders. In 2008, women comprised 27% of the National Assembly (UNIFEM)
At the provincial (state) level, women hold 27% of the Provincial Council seats - 121 out of 420 seats in 2005 (UNIFEM).
Women are 26% of all civil servants (UNIFEM).
Women are:
- 6% of the judges
- 6% of the prosecutors
- 6% of the attorneys
Although there are no women judges on the Supreme Court, the Family and Juvenile Courts are headed by women (UNIFEM, Nov. 2007 Fact Sheet).
However, much work still needs to be done to ensure that Afghan women are included in critical policy making roles. Although Afghan President, Hamid Karzai, named three women to his cabinet in January 2005, his appointments to the new 25 member cabinet in 2006 included only one woman, the Minister of Women's Affairs.

Google just reranked my website - the keyword currently bringing the most traffic to my site... tells me you people are all sick minded perverts...
You know... half the people in my chat call Avallac'h perverted because he has nude drawings of Ciri...
...but hey...
Every 30 days Google ranks my website and tells me the current top keyword search term trends that are driving traffic to my website.
Here's the list of the top search terms that drove traffic to my website this month:
And there are more... LOTS more... those are just the top most used versions
And how many people used those search terms to find my website?
"ciri nude" ranks at number 1 with a grand total of 66,715 people reaching my website via that search term this month.
66,715 visited my website in October 2019, via typing into Google the search term "ciri nude".
Good god!
And you people call Avallac'h perverted. What the hell are you?
Apparently I'm the only person who ever played The Witcher 3 as a nude Ciri and them posted screenshots of the whole thing online.
Damn... even all those screenshots of Ciri having sex with Avallac'h got 2,650+ visits each! LOL
What the hell?
What happened?
Why did EVERYONE suddenly start searching for "ciri nude" all of a sudden?
Well, whatever the reason... you pervs pushed us over the 200,000 mark this month!
Yep, 200,000 pages views in a SINGLE MONTH!
A great big hug and thank you to all you wonderful perverted freaks!Watch Part 1: Google just reranked my website - the keyword currently bringing the most traffic to my site... tells me you people are all sick minded perverts! from EelKat on www.twitch.tv
And before you get all hyped up over more "nude Ciri content", you might just want to reel your penis in and watch these two videos....
you might find them, rather eye opening....
You do know what Ciri did to Avallac'h in the novels, right?
If you are a man and you LIKE Ciri... wow, just, fucking WOW... clearly you ain't never read the novels.
You want a nude picture that BEST REPRESENTS Ciri... HERE HAVE A LINK.
Happy nightmares to any man who dares click on ^^^THAT^^^ link (which by the way, oddly, is the most visited picture on my website... I'm not sure why... you people are freaks.)
Ever heard of Lorena Bobbitt?
How about Sada Abe?
Better hide your dick for this one...
Ever heard of Catherine Kieu?
Hey, but you want nude pics of Ciri... well, have fun jerking your penis off to her while you can, because she's got a sword just waiting to slice your dick off.
If you want to continue to jerk off to Ciri, then make sure you NEVER read the novels... run... run far, far away from the novels and the REAL Ciri the game never told you about: the penis chopping, testicle mutilating psycho whore.
I continue to be amazed by how many men fantasize over women who are famous for cutting off penises. Damn. I'll never understand why you men like Ciri so much. But hey, you want to fantasize over penis mutilating women, I'm sure there are hundreds of real world women who would be more then happy to line up to castrate you.
Me personally, I hate rapists, sexual abusers, abortion bitches, spouse abusers, senior abusers, and terrorists... and Ciri is ALL OF THE ABOVE. But you keep on lusting after the baby murdering, spouse abusing, senior citizen raping, penis chopping, testical mutilating, shit bitch of a slutty assed whore... while you're at it, why do you go lust after Alex from Clock Work Orange? His crimes are nearly as horrific, brutal, or violent as Ciri's though, so he probably ain't enough of an abuser for you to like him.
So while you get off fantasizing over Ciri chopping your dick off, I'll continue to hate Ciri and all the psycho-feminist, social-justice-terrorism she stands for and is the poster child of. Sorry but, I like Avallac'h too much to share your love for the bitch who castrated him.
Why do I hate Ciri?
1: Ciri is a rapist.
2: Ciri is an abortion bitch.
3: Ciri is a sex crazed pervert.
4: Ciri is a drunk.
5: Ciri is a cocaine addict.
6: Ciri has a bloodlust. She is addicted to killing anything, everything, and every one that moves.
7: Ciri is a slutty assed whore who spends 90% of her time in the novels masterbating for the reader, demanding sex from every one, and raping elderly men.
8: Ciri says children, especially babies are parasites, and should all be killed.
9: One of Ciri's favorite pastimes is stabbing pregnant women in the belly. to "rescue them from the parasites that will destroy their lives."
In short, Ciri is a vile, immoral piece of shit.
Hell! We do more preaching Bible verses here then anything else. We even use Ciri as the
Why do you think I hate that immoral, sex-crazed, perverted, crackhead, drunk, child murdering, rapist, gutter scum piece of trash, bitch Ciri so much?
Who in their right mind wouldn't hate her?
The bigger question here is, why do YOU like a deviated, immoral piece of trash like that?
Watch Page 179 of Lady of the Lake aka Why I don't like Ciri and Why I absolutely hate,, loath, and revile Ciri's psychotic fan base from EelKat on www.twitch.tv
<<<---- 24 MILLION people consider this vile drug addicted, drunk, spouse abusing, child murdering, rapist who was modeled after The Lady of the Lake/Satan to be "The #1 female little girls should look up to and strive to be like".
While 21 MILLION people consider this moral, just, kind man who was modeled after The Fisher King/Christ Jesus himself, to be the most vile, terrible, evil villain of any villain ever created. --->>>
It says a lot about the society we live in when evil acts are hailed as good and good acts are hailed as bad.
Tell me how.... how do you sick, perverted jackasses look at Ciri and see ANYTHING but disgust and revulsion?
Why do I like Avallac'h?
You mean other then the fact that he was brutally raped and left crippled in a manner near identical to what happened to me?
1: Avallac'h is asexual, a virgin, lives a celibate life, and shuns sex.
2: Avallac'h is a vegan, animal rights, human rights, monster rights activist.
3: Avallac'h is doesn't drink alcohol.
4: Avallac'h has morals and strives to live a pious, righteous, holy life free from sin.
5: Avallac'h executes abortion bitches.
6: Avallac'h rescuses would-have-been-aborted babies.
7: Avallac'h abhors violence, weapons, and war
8: Avallac'h is a quiet, peaceful, kind, gentle, loving, docile man who spends his life doing nothing but fishing off his boat.
9: Animals and monsters do not fear Avallac'h because he has never shed innocent blood, never taken an innocent life, he has never murdered anyone.
10: Avallac'h is The Fisher King, holiest of the Grail Knights... The Maimed King... literally Jesus the Christ Fisher of Men; the ultimate moral person.
Do you really know NOTHING about King Arthur Myhos or the fact that The Fisher King and the 12 Grail Knights are Jesus and his 12 disciples?
Who wouldn't love Avallac'h knowing that?
I was raped, crippled, my legs, hips, knees, and spine broken, I was pregnant at the time, my died and I haven't been able to walk for 6 years. You can't even begin to imagine how much I hate the thought of sex, I have post traumatic stress disorder and sex, any mention of it, triggers it. I'm asexual, I have Kanner's Syndrome (actual Autism), I'm a 5th generation Mormon, and I'm an ordained minister.
I like Avallac'h because he's asexual, a virgin, and lives a celibate life. His wife died while she 8 months pregnant with another man's baby. I empathize with him, because just like me, he was beaten, raped, and crippled for the rest of his life. His entire story takes place on a lake, beside his wife's grave, where he does nothing but ride his around the lake, fish off a rowboat, and wander the fields picking flowers for his wife's grave.
And after he's raped, his legs broken, and the tomb of his wife smashed and destroyed, he never again leaves the boat, never speaks again, and never walks again.
Do you know the full extent of what happened to him? How bad it really was? How big of a piece of shit Ciri really is?
He was raped 5 times total. He tried to run away each time, but he's elderly, and had a lame leg, and was easily tackled by the sex crazed shit bitch that is Ciri. Because he kept running away, she broke both of his legs, then raped him again. Then, to punish him for refusing to have sex with her, she drove a sword through his hip, through his testicles, and out his other thigh. He was never able to walk again.
And all this, happened after he had already been tortured, locked in a cage, his blood drained, his family tortured to death in front of him: his parents, his siblings, his wife, his adopted baby, and his cats.... who when they were dead, were chopped up and force fed to him.
And WHY did she do all this? She was angry, that he was an asexual virgin and was refusing to have sex with her on command. She, 12 year old Queen of Cintra, who was used to demanding men to have sex with her and was horrified to encounter a righteous, just, decent, moral holy man who dared stand his ground and NOT obey the vile, perverted, debauched bitch's sex crazed demands.
I was raped, crippled, my legs, hips, knees, and spine broken, I was pregnant at the time, my baby, died and I haven't been able to walk for 6 years. I play as Avallac'h in the game, because I can make him walk again... something I can't do for myself...and THINGY KNEW THAT! I told her that August 2018. The game is only thing that keeps me from killing myself. You don't know what it;s like. I use to aqua jog 13 miles a day, go mountain climbing, horseback riding... and after 6 miscarriages, I finally had a pregnancy that was almost full term and a chance of finally having a baby.
The murderer has not yet been identified. If you have any information, FBI Agent Andy Drewer out of the Portland, Maine FBI office is in charge of the investigation. He can be reached @ +1-(207)-774-9322
I like Avallac'h because he's asexual, a virgin, and lives a celibate life. I empathize with him, because just like me, he was beaten, raped, and crippled for the rest of his life. He's one of the 12 Holy Grail Knights of King Arthur's Round Table.
My playing as Avallac'h has nothing to do with sex and I'm tired of you vile jackasses trying to make it out to be.
I play as Avallac'h in the game, because I can make him walk again and I can give him his cats back... something I can't do for myself.
Answer me this:
How can you glorify a rapist?
I'm thinking you are so vile, so perverted, so immoral, so evil... that THAT is why you are so in love with Ciri and have a hard time understanding why I don't join you in making fun of a moral, righteous man while glorifying the vile perversion that is Ciri. You are just plain THAT EVIL, that you can't see past your own debauched, vile life of sin to understand what it is like to be utterly disgusted and abhorred by repulsive evil things like yourself.
Shame on you!
How dare you glorify a rapist!
You want nude pictures of Ciri?
Have nude pictures of your vile mother of sin.
Patron of evil.
Embodiment of filth!
Then go burn in hell with her!

Stream Schedule:
The stream is live EVERY DAY usually from late evening through night and into early morning (EST).
Streams last 4 to 12 hours depending on how much free time I have that day.
Start time is not specific as my offline work schedule changes daily and is not consistent from one week to the next. Some days I start around 6PM other days I don't start til midnight or as late as 3AM. Usually you can find me on til 7AM, regardless of what time I start.
If I miss a day (which is rare, but does happen) it's because my health is worse then normal that day. If I'm able to sit up, but the tremors in my hands are to a point I can not hold the controller, I'll vlog instead of gaming. But if I'm too weak to sit up, I won't vlog that day either. There are simply days when I am too weak to push myself up in bed and I don't have anyone to help me sit up, so I can not record those days. Sorry.
NOTE: Witcher 3 a NSFW 18+ Stream with Wild Nudity settings turned on (meaning the females are nude - boobs and titties everywhere) sex scenes happening frequently - drug use and strong graphic violence in every stream - viewer discretion is STRONGLY ADVISED!
Often doing mod building, mod editing, and how to mod Witcher 3 streams as well.
Full list of publicly available mods I'm using, is listed on my Twitch profile, along with detailed instructions for how to get each of the 3 Ciri endings of the game, and the full history of Avallac'h's character from both the novels and the game.
