Why Integration and User Behaviors Are Top of Mind in Successful UC Environments
Staying connected in the business world is about more than just emails and texting. For professionals today, the ability to gain access to the network on a moment's notice is critical, whether the individual is traveling or in the office. The same is true for collaboration as key members of the team may not be in the same place at the same time. Making sure the ability to stay connected is also unified is a key priority for businesses throughout the global marketplace.
Call accounting solutions provider, ISI Telemanagement Solutions (News - Alert) recently posted a blog on the topic, highlighting the recent release of Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications (News - Alert). While the report is considered one of the most relevant in the marketplace, the summary points to the reality that suite solutions in unified communications are getting better. At the same time, there is a is still a need to enhance key capabilities to increase functionality or scale so that users have what they need, when they need it.
Video conferencing, both desktop and mobile, is gaining momentum as users continue to turn to it as an important tool for collaboration. The tricky part with video conferencing, however, is that it can get clunky and expensive very quickly if decision makers aren't clear on the right steps for integration with the unified communications strategy. For instance, video conferencing should be monitored by the call accounting platform, but a lack of integration understanding could miss this step altogether.
For those environments relying on the Cisco (News - Alert) suite, options for on-premise video is through the Jabber client. Web options are available through the cloud-based Cisco WebEx. When the two environments need to talk to each other, there must be a solution in between to connect deskphones with mobile phones and vice versa. This is key as employees need to be able to work the way they prefer in order to enhance productivity.
Environments relying on Microsoft's (News - Alert) Skype for Business have different hurdles to get over. The web conferencing solution can be deployed as a managed service, on-premise or as a hybrid. When it's bundled with Office 365, the full collaboration suite offers voice, email, instant messaging and presence, in addition to video. Recording is then enabled through Jabber or Skype (News - Alert) for Business, depending on the needs of the organization.
The combinations could go on and one, but the point is that integration is key if you hope to drive the intended benefits within your corporate environment. That integration has to be focused on user behavior or unified communications and collaboration will fail to deliver on expectations. The ultimate goal is to provide users with the tools they need to get the job done. As everyone's job varies, so too must the options for the ways they stay connected.

Trading task in classic mechanics
In physics, action is an attribute of system dynamics. By definition it is a functional over trajectory or history of the system:
where L is the Lagrangian. The real beauty of such description lies in developed and well studied mechanism of equation solutions.
Quantum Mechanics and Market Observables
Quantum mechanics has quite powerful notion of observables. They are just properties of system state that can be determined by measurement process. Let's recall main principles of quantum mechanics and how they could be applied to markets.

EDMOND — This season slow pitch softball proved quite successful for multiple teams.
EDMOND — This season slow pitch softball proved quite successful for multiple teams.
Saturday afternoon at Oklahoma Christian University, the accolades continued to pile up for several area schools.
Turner, Healdton, Davis, and Sulphur were all able to claim representatives in the OSPCA All-State games.
Small All-State
There was certainly no shortage of offense in the opening contest. For Turner Lady Falcons Jacey Henry and Shyanne Parker, they fit right into the high scoring affair for the small West team.
Unfortunately, the highlights for the Lady Falcons players on the offensive end weren't nearly enough to overcome the onslaught brought by the East squad, as they managed to put up more than 30 runs of offense in a blowout victory.
Both Henry and Parker reached base multiple times in the contest, with Henry scoring the opening run of the game for the West team in the top of the first inning.
There would be one more big highlight from the game from Henry, as she launched another one of her trademark home runs to dead center field in the top of the eighth inning.
The resulting blast hit off the scoreboard for a three-run home run, putting the West team at that moment down 27-7.
For Henry, the game marked the second time in two weeks she has participated in an All-State game as she played in the fast pitch game last weekend with another teammate of hers in Tracy McGill.
"It's been a complete blast," Henry said about the All-State experience. "I feel so honored to have been able to represent Turner High School and get to play with these talented girls out here."
For Parker, the experience she said was one she won't soon forget in her life.
"It was so much fun, but it was really humbling," she said. "I thought it was so cool getting to be teammates with girls who have been my rivals all throughout high school. I wouldn't trade my experience at Turner softball for anything."
Jacey Henry will now move on to playing softball for East Central University in the fall, while Shyanne Parker will be attending Murray State College in the fall.
Middle All-State
During the season, Healdton and Davis went at it for a district championship, and engaged in some very close contests.
Saturday afternoon, two key elements from those squads were teammates as Davis' Jolie Romine and Healdton's Caycey Griffin stood side-by-side for the middle West squad.
Romine managed to finish 2-for-2 with a pair of doubles and runs scored along with an RBI, while Griffin went 1-for-2 with a run scored in the contest, but made several key stops in the infield as the West won the game 16-12.
Both Griffin and Romine each completed a double header of All-State games as both participated in the fast pitch games last weekend.
"It was an honor to be able to play in these games these last two weekends," Griffin said. "I enjoyed getting to play with a lot of talented players out there, this was really exciting for me. Jolie (Romine) is a really good player and it was fun getting to be a teammate with her."
"This experience was really fun for me getting to play with a lot of athletic people," Romine said. "Getting to be with my girls this season was something I'll never forget."
Both Griffin and Romine will be moving onto play college softball this fall.
Romine will be playing at Connors State College, while Griffin will be joining Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas.
Large All-State
A historic season for the Sulphur Lady Bulldogs added yet another chapter to itself on Saturday.
For the first time in program history, SHS had three players representing in an All-State game.
Savannah Ashford, Ashlie Hedemann, and Payton Szalaj all played crucial parts for the West squad in the final game of the day from Oklahoma Christian University.
Each player managed to reach base at least once in the contest, which saw the West squad register more than 25 runs before it was all said and done.
The highlight of the day for Sulphur came in the seventh inning, when Ashford launched a two-run home run to left field.
For Ashford, the game marked the completion of a double-double in All-State games as she played in the fast pitch game last week.
"It's just really special to be able to be recognized by all the coaches state wide," Ashford said. "This has been a dream of mine ever since I was little and this just means so much to me."
Hedemann echoed her teammates thoughts, and added getting to share the field with her teammates one last time was very special.
"This is the first time Sulphur has ever had three all-state players," she said. "That's something that really sticks out to me. Getting to play with Payton and Savannah one last time was really special for me."
For Szalaj, while her college destination is unknown right now, she couldn't help but be thrilled at getting to play one last time with teammates she's had for years.
"It's always a special event when I get to share the field with my teammates," she said. "These are teammates I have had since junior high. Getting to play alongside them one last time has been amazing."
Ashford and Hedemann will both be attending Murray State College in the fall and both will be playing softball.

Explaining the Good Fortune of Dragon Year Children
Those born in a Year of the Dragon are more likely than others to obtain a bachelor's degree or higher — because parents invest more in them.
Is a child born in a certain zodiac year really destined to have more good fortune and success in life than a child born in another year? Many parents in China believe that's the case for children born in a Year of the Dragon, and some education statistics would appear to confirm it.
Bang for the R&D Buck Is in a Long, Steady Decline
But in Can Superstition Create a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy? School Outcomes of Dragon Children in China (NBER Working Paper No. 23709) Naci H. Mocan, and Han Yu show that the higher educational achievements of Dragon year children in China are largely due to the much higher expectations of their parents. Some parents time marriages so as to have children born in Dragon years, and many of them invest more time and money in their children than other parents, thereby helping to fulfill their lofty expectations.

Classes exist for ages ranging from 3 up through high school. The UW-L Jr. Eagle Gymnastics Program is committed to ensuring a quality and safe experience for all participants involved. The benefits of the program include:
→ Equipment that meets all USA Gymnastics Safety Standards.
→ USAG progressive levels of instruction.
→ Certified First Aider on site at all times.
→ Dependent, experienced gymnasts as strong role models for your son or daughter.
→ Instructor to student ratio of 1:6 or fewer.
PRE-SCHOOL CLASSES: The pre-school class is for children ages 3-5. The focus is on movement and the introduction to locomotor skills, eye-hand coordination, rhythm, basic positions, and working well with others.
LEVEL 1 BEGINNER CLASSES: Beginner students are for ages 5-8 and 9-11. This class is designed both for the student who has never done gymnastics but is too old for pre-school as well as for continuing students who are working to master basic skills including a forward roll, cartwheel, and a pull-over on bars.
LEVEL 1 INTERMEDIATE CLASSES: The chronological next step up from beginner is to the intermediate class. Children are now working to master slightly more advanced skills including a round-off, forward roll on beam, and back hip circles on bars.
LEVEL 2: The pre-competitive level is aimed at providing the progressing student more challenging skills but not necessarily moving towards a competitive environment. More instructional time is allowed for greater development of skill and aptitude. Focus now lies in the continual improvement of skill achievement including a back walkover and cartwheels on the balance beam.
LEVEL 3: Moving on up the ladder of skill achievement comes the pre-team class. Students are now accomplishing tasks that lead toward being associated more with competition. The skills working to be accomplished consist of true vaulting with the table, a kip on bars, and both front and back handsprings on floor. Putting skills into sequences also becomes a new objective for the athlete. Instructor evaluation and consent is required for attendance in this class.
LEVEL 4 - TEAM: Although Jr. Eagles is a recreational program, we do have a team program in which athletes are allowed to work routines with specific skills and have the opportunity to compete in local competitions. Again, instructor evaluation and consent are required for participation. The team program is designed to prepare area students to participate in high school gymnastics. This team competes in the MAGA program.
HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS: One of our desires in this program is to develop strong, experienced athletes who may desire to participate in high school gymnastics.
SEMI-PRIVATE & PRIVATE LESSONS: These classes are offered in order to give more one on one attention to the gymnast. Privates consist of 1 gymnast with 1 instructor. Semi-privates consist of 2-4 gymnasts with 1 instructor. Every gymnast in each semi-private lesson may not be at the same skill level. Gymnasts are grouped according to the specific day they picked for their lesson. Instructors create lesson plans for students that benefit thier individual skill level. Both types of lessons are intended to be an extension class where a gymnast can focus on improving certain skills with more individual instruction. Taking a regular class along with a private or semi-private lesson is required.

We are squeezing the air in the syringe together
when we push on the plunger, but we can only
squeeze the air together so much, and then the
plunger won't go any farther, because the air
molecules are squeezed as close together as we can
squeeze them by pushing on the plunger.
When you push the plunger of a syringe without
your finger plugging the hole, the force that you
are applying doesn't have an "opposing
force", or a force pushing back. This
allows whatever is in the syringe to come out of
the hole because of the pressure applied to the
fluid inside. When you cover the exit, the fluid
that pushes on your finger is blocked and an
opposing force is applied to the fluid.
This makes it much harder to push the fluid back
since the two forces cancel out and the net
movement is 0.
It is because there is air inside of the
syringe, and you are not letting it escape. Air
exerts a pressure on anything it touches, and the
denser the air, the greater the pressure. By
compressing the air inside of the syringe, you are
making it denser, to the point where you are
no longer strong enough to keep pushing the
plunger in. The force of the air on the plunger
equals the force of your finger pressing on it.
When you put your finger over the nozzle of a
syringe, you are making a closed volume of
air. When you push on the plunger, you are
decreasing the volume of air inside the syringe
by increasing the pressure. More pressure
makes the closed volume of air even smaller. In
order to press all the way down, you need to
decrease the volume to zero. This can only be done
if you can apply infinite pressure to the plunger.
Unfortunately, it does not matter how much you
work out your thumb because you won't be able to
keep covering the nozzle when the pressure becomes
extreme. Your finger will hurt! So, what
happens if we put a perfect seal on the nozzle and
use a very strong machine to push on the plunger?
Will we get to infinite pressure?
Unfortunately, the answer is "No!" The syringe
will explode before you can get to infinite

Major in Marketing
Article by Rachelle Wiggins
Whatever work God has allotted to you for this day, year, or decade, do it for His glory with the zeal and diligence that is granted to us through the Holy Spirit. ~Cristos Makridis
Marketing is all around us. Every perceivable space—from the family room TV screen to the car in the neighboring lane to our friend's t-shirt to the website on our Iphone—is up for grabs when it comes to creating product perception. In its most basic form, marketing is about selling a product to a target audience. Interested in everything from branding to consumer behavior, from pricing theory to promotion of a product, from digital advertising to distribution of goods, a marketing major will learn how to identify market segments, estimate demand and set competitive prices. With a 14% projected job increase over the next few years (nearly double the average job projections), marketing exists worldwide and shows no sign of slowing down!
So what skills and traits are needed in order to be a successful marketing major? At the top of the list is creativity! There is no end to the amount of brainstorming needed in order to successfully move a product or service from earliest concept into the hands of a satisfied consumer. For someone with an inventive bent, a marketing career may potentially offer a practical, applied area of ongoing artistic expression. In addition, it is important to be able to think critically and solve problems since much of marketing involves analyzing complex data which must then be translated into accessible and appealing ideas, so good communication skills (including verbal, written and listening skills) are a must. Much of marketing is teamwork; therefore, strong interpersonal abilities are needed, as well as time management skills. It also helps to be someone who enjoys working with all forms of media and to have an interest in psychology and how people think.
Some of the general classes you may take for a marketing major include public speaking, business writing, computer science and psychology. Once you get further into your major you will begin taking more business-related classes such as:
A marketing major allows you to go on for further education but also prepares you for a large number of career options. Some of these include:
Perhaps God has given you a drive for connecting producers and consumers. If you are a natural networker with a gifting in creative thinking and persuasive sales abilities, then a major in marketing could be the next step He has planned for you!

One thing is clear from the mural – the creation of Alien was no accident. The engineers knew exactly what they wanted to create. It is also evident that they had even figured out the life cycle of the creature. This would explain the facehugger on the mural. But, a few interesting questions also emerge from this scenario. Let us address them one by one.
Time Frame – When did the Engineers conceive the Alien?
In my opinion, this is an extremely important question to address. The 'schematics' seem fairly detailed, and hence, it wouldn't be illogical to assume that they had also worked out the specifics of the biology of the creature, not just its life-cycle. Now, from a time standpoint, there are a couple of possibilities. Let us explore both of them and try to figure out which one is the likeliest.
Scenario 1: The engineers conceived the idea for Alien prior to engineering life on earth.
Scenario 2: Alien was designed roughly around the beginning of the Vulgar Era (Common Era or A.D) in the Gregorian calendar of our history. (Yes, I know the term Vulgar Era isn't used that often, but for our current discussion it fits).
I am sure you would agree with me that scenario 1 is a bit illogical. If it were true, it would mean that the sole reason for engineering life on earth was to invite a few people over to LV 223 to use as specimens for experimenting with the black goo aiding in the creation of Alien! Not to mention, they were willing to wait nearly 4.6 billion years to accomplish their mission! The whole idea seems a bit far fetched and totally inefficient for such an advanced race. Hence, I am absolutely positive that this time frame can be ruled out.
Scenario 2 seems more likely. It would mean that there was some "event" in human history that changed the engineers' opinion of us as a race. May be we didn't meet their standards and they thought of us as a monumental failure. So, they conceived Alien both as a way to correct their mistake and at the same time, use us in it's creation or evolution.
A few interesting things can be gleaned from such a scenario. First off, the importance of LV 223 should be considered. It is clear that LV 223 was the focal point of the engineers' grand scheme of things long long time ago. This is based on the star map that we saw in the beginning of the film. Going by the oldest such map dating back to more than 35,000 years ago, it is clear that they had something planned for us on the moon, LV 223. Else, they wouldn't invite us there. The only thing I could think of is that their intentions then were very different, perhaps even benevolent, Thanks to the so called event, it all changed and the engineers suddenly went batshit crazy and developed the schematics for the Alien and started engineering the black goo for that purpose. Now, as far as a rough estimate is concerned, we do have a clue. When Shaw dated the dead engineer in the cave, she said he's been dead for nearly 2000 years give or take. When Prometheus was close to its destination, we saw the date was December 21st, 2093. So, that would roughly put the time of the "infection" at around 100 AD. This estimate should provide an ample window when the event happened and the engineers developed the black goo weapon.
I would just like to mention a bit about the organizational structure of the engineers in the context of the reverse engineered black goo. If there had been a common consensus in the development of a weaponized form of the black goo, it surprises me that seemingly no effort had been made on part of the engineers to save the ones on LV 223 who were exposed to this plague. Irrespective of the heightened danger that such a situation presented, it is strange that the affected engineers were left to deal with the mess themselves. More than 2000 years had passed in the meantime, with no evidence of a mop up operation of some kind. It certainly paints the possibility that the modified bioweapon exercise on LV 223 was perhaps the work of some bad apples, a community of engineers who took offense to the "event" and it was an emotion that was not shared by all of them. The other group of engineers had planned on something else for the humans on LV 223. This would mean that we could have two groups of engineers and the one which felt the need to punish humans and the other that did not want to get involved. Just a thought. Anyway, I will come back to this issue much later in my thesis when we address later scenes.
By the way, there is another very important aspect of the mural that I am deliberately not touching upon right now. It has to do with the posture of the Alien! I am sure you guys would probably observe the special nature of such a pose. I will talk about it in detail during my final discussions.

On a similar note to the last post, here's another sub-notebook on Brighthand:
"Last week, Via Technologies announced the NanoBook reference design for a small and light laptop computer based on one of its low-power processors. Via won't make this device itself. Instead it is offering the design to other companies to produce. The first to sign up was Packard Bell, who will doubtless release its version in Europe.
More About the Via NanoBook Reference Design
The design Via has come up with is for a laptop that it believes is small enough to compare to a handheld computer. Devices based on it will have a clamshell shape, and be 9 inches wide, 6.7 inches deep, and 1.14 inches thick when closed. (230 mm by 171 mm by 29.4 mm). They will weigh about 1.9 pounds (850 g).
NanoBook models, naturally, will be built around a low voltage 1.2 GHz Via C7-M processor, and be capable of running either Windows XP or Windows Vista Basic. The design includes a 7-inch, 800-by-400-pixel (WVGA) touchscreen, a full-size keyboard, a touchpad, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. In addition, it includes a place for MobilityPLUS Modules. These allow the addition of Bluetooth VoIP phone, GPS, DVB, 3G/CDMA or Clock functionality.
Via has also included an Ethernet port, two USB 2.0 ports, and a 4-in-1 card reader.
A 30 GB or 60 GB hard drive is part of the design.
Via doesn't say what it believes laptops based on the NanoBook design will cost, but it does say it is "targeted at aggressive consumer price points".
The company also says that these devices should offer up to 4.5 hours of battery life."
An interesting development, maybe the long predicted demise of the PDA is really at hand?
I found this story on Brighthand
According to Brighthand:
It will be 8.9 inches wide, 6.5 inches deep, and 1.4 inches thick (22.5 cm by 165 cm by 35 mm). It will weigh just under 2 pounds (890 g).
Details are somewhat unclear in this area, but it appears that the Eee PC will ship with a proprietary operating system with a basic set of functions, including web browsing, exchanging email, and even video chatting with a built-in VGA camera.
Users will apparently have the option of loading full versions of Windows or Linux operating systems, but these won't be bundled with this device. Asus hasn't revealed what processor this model will use, but as Intel was part of the announcement it's likely it will be one of this company's low-power chips. The Eee PC will have the typical clamshell design for a laptop computer, with a 7-inch display, a full QWERTY keyboard, and a trackpad.
For a low-cost device, it will ship with an impressive collection of connectivity options: 56K modem, Ethernet, 802.11b/g, and Bluetooth. There has even been some mention of cellular-wireless connectivity.
To make it more resistant to breakage, the Eee PC won't have a traditional spinning hard drive. Instead, it will include either a 4 GB or 16 GB solid-state Flash drive.
– Its battery life is expected to be about 3 hours on a single charge.
– Asus plans to start shipping units in August, with the goal of selling 200,000 units in 2007.
– These will sell for $200 and $300; the higher amount will be for the version with a larger capacity Flash drive.
To give you an idea of size, here's an image from the Asus site.
This could be an interesting development alongside UMPCs if it is possible to load an OS that can run music applications. I guess we'll have to wait and see, but for $200 – $300 can you go too far wrong?
Still very sad about the news on Tim Cole's blog. Such a great shame for everyone involved.
You have to wonder what if anything will happen to miniMIXA? I expect that V3 will not see the light of day, which is again a great shame.

Surface Design
Students design surface designs with different methods and tools for various purposes and experience the creative process from inspiration to sketches and further to finished surface designs and colourways.
- CAD-designs, fabric collage designs, 3D surface designs, painted designs
- repeats, design and coordination of colourways and surface design and textile collections
- commercial and industrial aspects to surface and textile design, commercial collection design and design process, design management
- following a shared theme in their own design work.
- learning to use basic design tools used for commercial surface design.
This course is an obligatory prerequisite for the PatternLab project.
Course content
A pre-assignment activates the perception process; participants are asked to research and gather personally interesting colors, stories, events etc. During the first weeks of the course students develop visual concepts (mood board and color map) in teams, based on their findings. One theme / colourway concept is selected and all students follow it throughout their individual design process. Creative hands-on sketching sessions with various materials and techniques are organized to support the artistic process, followed by experiments in repeat design, surface design by hand and lessons in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop – programs as surface design tools. The final outcome is six finished surface designs: three hand made designs and three printouts. The creative process is completed with presentations by visiting designers and lectures on surface design, commercial textile collection design, design management, advancements in printing technology and new service systems for printed textiles.

(Or, possibly the right way up at last?)
From Germany By Karma Singh
Cancer is a dreaded disease feared both by those who have it and by those who think they might get it.
Statistically, about 1/3rd of the population of the First World would be expected to develop cancer and most will die as a result. Total Nonsense from start to finish…
Let's Look At This Situation From An Entirely Different Point Of View.
Note the following points:
1) Cancer is your friend which will keep you alive in circumstances which would otherwise kill you.
2) Cancer is not a disease but a natural, short-term emergency solution for a completely different problem.
3) Cancer is not the only such: Arthritis, arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, gout, rheumatism and a host of other well-known "incurable diseases" are, similarly, natural emergency solutions and NOT illnesses! These also affect about 1/3rd of the First World population.
4) Cancer has never killed anyone! I.e., if you don't tackle the real problem, the cancers, perforce, become so large that they prevent normal organ function and you die from organ failure. Most cancer related deaths, however, are caused by medical treatment.
5) The real problem with cancer, arthritis, etc. is the medical profession which, instead of resolving the real problem, attacks the symptoms (the effects of the real problem) thus making matters much worse.
6) In the early 20th century, Rockefeller and Carnegie set about buying up the entire health industry to remodel it into a "cash cow" for Rockefellers pharmaceuticals and Carnegies medical (surgical) centers. A little later, they began buying up the entire news industry so as to prevent the truth reaching the public.
7) In many countries, laws have been "purchased" giving them monopoly status on cancer and some other ailments and/or liability exemption. This is because cancer is so highly profitable, running at around $50,000.00 to $70,000.00 per cancer death.
In 2018, the cartel's co-ordinating bank, Goldmann-Sachs, declared that "there is no profit to be made in curing people so it is not going to happen."
8) Until, in the early 20th century, the move from fresh to processed "foodstuffs" began, cancer was a very rare dis-ease. Parallel to the rise in the consumption of "processed foods" we see a rise in the cancer rate.
So, why are we not told of this very clear causational relationship?

The City of Eugene is four years into a five-year Diversity and Equity Strategic Plan (DESP) to improve the organization's culture around equity and human rights. The City and our Community Planning Workshop team partnered up to check off a plan action item and conduct an evaluation on the progress of the plan.
To evaluate the city's progress on equity and human rights, our team uses surveys, interviews with executives and department DESP committees, focus groups, and related research. City staff received the survey in mid-February, and by the time the survey closed, 47% of the 1,400 staff members responded. We were thrilled with the response and are now analyzing the results to find key themes. In mid-to-late February our team also conducted all 13 interviews and team members continue to synthesize the results.
In late June, we'll present the City with our final report. In it, we'll include the key themes from the survey, interviews, and focus groups, and recommendations for future action. The DESP expires in 2014 and we are working with the City to understand what should replace it, if anything at all.
With much work done and much more to do, our team is happy with the progress and enjoying our partnership with the City of Eugene.

October 1st View
An early morning picture as the sun is rising over the thicket. At least, that is what we call the growth of trees and brush that separates the subdivision's commons property from the neighbors. I know winter is not far away as the trees have started to shed their leaves and thin. This grouping doesn't change into the explosive colors as other trees do. They just gradually loose the foilage until all that is left are the branches. With temperatures dipping to 40 F this morning, the potted plants will start to droop and fade away...

Imagine this :
I've been invited to appear on Bill O'Reilly show on FOX News (you see what I mean by imagine this). We are discussing unemployment among black men in the United States. O'Reilly makes some comment about . . . I don't know what (it's impossible to tell what vicious thing he might say). My response is,
Well, Bill, I don't want to feed your ego, But I think you're right. I'm not a bigot, but political correctness can lead to some kind of paralysis where you don't address reality. When I get on a plane and see a black man with a mustache walking down the aisle toward me, I get nervous. I mean that guy identifying himself first and foremost as a black man, I don't know.
Juan Williams, sometime "analyst" on NPR, if he heard my statement, would be all over me—calling on Bill O'Reilly to make me apologize—talking about my racist ideas on NPR's Morning Edition—making a fuss over my reversion back to the Jim Crow days of segregation in the pre-Civil Rights era.
As everyone knows by now, on Monday this week, Juan Williams said on The O'Reilly Factor, in response to O'Reilly's infamous statement on The View that all Muslims are responsible for the attacks on September 11, 2001,
Look, Bill, I'm not a bigot. You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But political correctness can lead to some kind of paralysis where you don't address reality. When I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.
At least NPR had the decency to fire Williams.
That's a step in the right direction for NPR. However, NPR, like nearly all institutions in the country, has refused to take any kind of leadership role in reversing the lurching hatred of Muslims that has become blatant xenophobia in the United States.
The imminent takeover of the Federal Government by Tea Party candidates has swallowed up the news in the last few weeks, but the undercurrent of xenophobia against American Muslims is never far from the surface. As a tiny example, In a July news story about the race for US Senate in Kentucky, where the Republican Rand Paul has called for the repeal of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Osi Onyekwuluje, a conservative Republican lawyer and a former prosecutor in Bowling Green who has run several times for public office reports that,
Before they ever met [him], people said his name sounded weird. Obviously, they said, he wasn't white or a native Kentuckian. Was he a U.S. citizen? Was he African? If he was African, was he Muslim? If he was an African Muslim, did he pose a potential threat? Suddenly the candidate. . . . had to spend his time explaining that yes, he is black, but he is a devout Christian and an American citizen. (1)
This is not an isolated incident. On August 17, a group of half a dozen Republican former government officials took "issue with Republicans who have called the proposed location of the [New York Islamic] center insensitive." Their letter, published in the New York Times, includes the paragraph
We are deeply concerned by the rhetoric of some leading members of our party surrounding the construction of the Muslim Community Center in downtown Manhattan. These comments are not only constitutionally unsound, they are also alienating millions of Arab American and Muslim American voters who believe, as we do, in the principles of our party – individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law. (2)
The unusual step by officials of former Republican Administrations taking issue with their own party during an election campaign is an indication that the issue of Islamophobia is, at the very least, "alienating millions" of possible GOP voters, and that it needs to stop—for political reasons. The "issue" of the so-called "Ground-Zero Mosque" seems to have disappeared as the Republicans have decided to do nothing to jeopardize their probable takeover of the Congress.
But note that the letter by the former Republican officials who say they are "proud of [their] Arab American and Muslim American" contributions to the party and the government, does not say that the Republican and Tea Party manufactured hullabaloo over the mosque is simply "wrong."
In an essay in The Humanist, Sarah Ameigh finds a different reason for taking New York Republicans to task:
The grief suffered by the friends and family of 9/11 victims is of a magnitude beyond the comprehension of most. No one is suggesting they aren't entitled to grieve. . . . But allowing this pain to produce bigotry and hatred—social chemicals nearly impossible to contain once encouraged—creates in our nation a climate conducive to contempt. Contempt from its citizens, contempt from the watching countries of the world. Are we a benevolent super power? Are we an example? Or are we simply soldiers of Christian intolerance, masked by our bankroll and our government? Ask the Muslims attempting to build their mosque. They may see us more clearly than anyone. (3)
During the 2008 election campaign, a well-known incident at a "town meeting" held by Republican John McCain produced the following exchange:
[A woman in the audience said], "I can't trust Obama. I have read about him … he's an Arab." It was at that moment, sensing the impending political fall-out, that Senator John McCain reached to take away the microphone from . . . her. "No ma'm", replied a clearly embarrassed McCain. "He's a decent, family man, citizen, that I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues, and that's what this campaign is all about". (4)
The exchange is remarkable not for the bigotry expressed by the woman, but for McCain's response. He said the proof that President Obama was not "an Arab" was that he was a "decent family man." The implication was, of course, that, were he an Arab, he could not be a decent family man.
John McCain and Juan Williams are two characters in the tragic drama playing out in the United States. McCain exemplifies the cast of political characters who use Islamophobia for political gain, refusing to call bigotry by its name. Williams exemplifies the cast of so-called "conservative" pundits who use Islamophobia for broadcast "ratings" and financial gain. In other words, Islamophobia is exactly the same racial hatred that allowed for the demonization of Irish Catholics in 19th-century America and for the subjugation of Black Americans that began to ease only with the Civil Rights act of 1964.
Islamophobia is not a fear of terrorism. It is, at its core, as Erik Love explains, virulent racism. It
does not always target Islam and Muslims per se, but instead takes on the familiar pattern of racial scapegoating: fear and hatred, prejudice and discrimination directed towards groups crudely demarcated primarily by physical appearance. (5)
Juan Williams' saying, "I get worried. I get nervous," is part of a pattern in which
Race clearly plays a role . . . Syrian Americans along with Pakistani Americans have to present themselves to immigration authorities for 'special registration'. . . Chaldean churches and Sunni mosques alike are vandalized and receive the same kinds of hate mail. (6)
Racist language is particularly tragic coming from an American who has written books on the Civil Rights Movement—who has gained $2,000,000 for his vitriol.

Which way Nigeria is the title of a song released in 1984 by the legendary vocal Prophet, Francis Sonny Okosun .
'Which way Nigeria', 'which way to go','which way is Nigeria heading to' are some of the questions the late Ozzidi King needed answers to. He died without getting an answer to this important national question.
Fast forward to 2019,that is 35 years after Okosun's song,the answer to 'which way Nigeria' still remains elusive. General Muhammad Buhari was the head of state then and President Muhammad Buhari is the President now. The former and the latter are one and the same person.Little wonder,we still do not know which way Nigeria is heading to.
1984 in Nigeria under General Muhammad Buhari was a 'Year of recession and Depression' literally.
In 2015,chants of 'sai baba' and 'febuhari' rented the air as both simple and educated folks took to their polling units to vote for 'the man of integrity,Nigeria's elpis-our goddess of hope. The first sign of how hopeless his policies would be was in his ministerial appointments. Six months was what it took him to appoint his friends and praise singers as ministers. The value of the naira to the dollar did not survive that long before jumping from 190 naira a dollar to 370 naira to a dollar. Every other area got worse from there.
People queued to buy sugar,salt,fuel and other basic human needs in 1983.Presently Nigerians as a result of ill advised government policies do not have money to buy those simple life sustaining essentials.
This government,unless a miracle happens would forever be remembered by the twin evils of corruption and insecurity.
Every man,the Marxists believe and Jack Higgins pointed out in his book,Toll for the Brave, has his thesis,the positive side and his antithesis,the dark side. To control a man,find out the things that constitute the later and feed it until it becomes a dominant part of him so that he forgets every noble thing he has ever been taught. So that he loses his humanity.
Almost all the leaders Nigeria has had from Lord Lugard to President Buhari are guilty to a degree of some of the things that feed Buhari's antithesis.
Lord Lugard and his colonial gangs supervised the looting of Nigeria's human and Natural resources.
The award for the nepotist in chief in Nigeria goes to Ahmadu Bello .
Ironsi like Jonathan was clueless.There were slow in decision making. Obasanjo and Yar'adua were great leaders but,still had their shortcomings.
Buhari of 1983 and Buhari of 2019 are one. He is only bested by Bello when it comes to nepotism.
This post is about Nigeria.So. I am going to talk about Nigeria only and Buhari being the present President is going to appear more in the paragraphs that would follow.
The dark sides of President Buhari are unquantifiable nepotism, I-don't-care-tribalism and Incompetency cum cluelessness on an industrial scale.
Under this President, Nigerians are not asking for a voyage to the moon.They only wants to be alive.They want to be able to go to their farm without being killed or kidnapped by AK 47 carrying killer Fulani herdsmen. They want to travel from one state to another without being raped, killed or kidnapped by bandits.
While the secessionist Indegenous People of Biafra(IPOB) led by the loud mouthed and undiplomatic Nnamdi Kanu was curtailed by a military operation codenamed Python dance which is in its third edition as of press time, the killing trinity of the killer Fulani herdsmen ,terrorist Boko Haram and the rampaging Northern bandits have not received the adequate security attention that its tears-inducing activities deserved.
The bandits buoyed by government's indifference,denial and conscious or unconscious preferential treatment now boasts sophisticated weapons which they are not scared of carrying about. Certain routes in this country are so killer Fulani and Northern bandits infested that a day without kidnapping along them is almost impossible.
A serving governor once admitted to paying the bandits to stop killing people while the Present governor of Katsina which is the President's home state has invited the killer bandits to a roundtable discussion maybe to pay them to stop killing Nigerians.
Boko Haram terrorists when captured, instead of facing the justice of the black cap variety that they deserve are 'deradicalised' ,re-integrated into the society and most times rewarded with employment in the arm forces.Who knows,they may end up sending intelligence to their colleagues that are still in the forest.
Pro bono? Who benefits from the security threats posed by the evil trinity in Northern Nigeria?Who benefits from President Buhari's overfed dark sides? It is suggested that the military chiefs who are more political in their approach to fighting insecurity in Nigeria are the major beneficiaries of the security challenges in the country. Money meant to buy arms to fight the terrorists from the days of Jonathan to the present Buhari era has been looted,recovered,relooted and sometimes alleged to be swallowed by animals by thieving government officials.
Recently the Presidency directed that all government ministers that wishes to have a meeting with him must have the blessing of Abba Kyari, the chief of staff to the president before such meeting can go ahead. This has only served to strengthen beliefs in the oil rich West African country that the man Abba Kyari is the defacto President of Nigeria.
President Buhari can still redeem himself and steer the ship of the Nigerian state to the part of true greatness by accomodating the 5% instead of abetting their domination by the 97%. His redemption can also come by sacking the ineffective military chiefs who believes the terrorists has been technically defeated.and the praise-singing spokesmen and aides that can not advise him beyond the need of their stomachs.
The overbloated salaries and allowances of the presidency and the National Assembly members should be made to reflect the true conditions of the country.
The military,health and educational sector should be funded adequately.
This way 'Nigeria go better' and the answers to Okosun's which way Nigeriamay finally be provided.
May God bless NigeriaFollow Us Today

lol, and this: http://www.conservativesforchange.com/
From Buck on October 23rd, 2008:
Oy, had to stop half way through. Some of things were uneducated. It's really clear that not only has McCain run a poor campaign that doesn't reflect how he would be as a President (because I've read things about him now and how he was before that are drastically different then how he presents himself through his campaign) and also how clever and brilliant of a campaign Obama has run. It's really sad.
Quick note, how well you run a campaign surely does not reflect how good of a president you will be. Bush ran brilliant campaigns in 2000 and 2004, one of the best campaign machines in decades, and well... we know where that got us.
So sad that this is what politics is. "I want change... blah blah blah." My dad put it really well, Obama has pretty much just become a screen onto which the world is projecting what they want from a president. It doesn't matter what he wants to do, what his proposals are, what he's done. He's presented himself in such a way, that people see whatever it is that change means to them.
The guy that said he wants Obama because we've moved too far to the right and so he hopes this will move us back in the other direction, is clearly a bit misguided. First both candidates are more to the left and McCain disagrees with Bush on many key conservative issues. Second, there's going to be a Democratic majority in congress even larger than there is now! maybe even a veto proof 60 in the senate. C'mon

Thank you to everyone who did Murph with us this Saturday and kept our annual tradition alive. I hope you had a refreshing and relaxing long weekend!
If you did Murph this weekend, chances are you are feeling the effects - sore shoulders, biceps, hips, and legs. We are going to ease back into training this week with a body weight workout tomorrow.
Here is a thought to get you started into the week:
"The best way to predict the future is to create it." - Peter Drucker
We talk often of disregarding the leaderboards.
To disregard what the competitor to the left and right are doing.
To focus on our game - our approach - our strategy. To be the Racehorse.
The reason behind - to master, with complete ownership, ourselves.
We know we can't control external factors. No matter how hard we try, we know it's fruitless. In turn, how the leaderboard shakes out after five weeks, is also largely out of our control. We could be 1st, 10th, 100th, or 1,000th, all with the same effort and mindset.
We can interpret the quote in two ways above, when applying to our situation:
1) We can believe that our future is that final leaderboard spot.
2) Or we can believe that our preparation, focus, and execution is our future.
Tuesday's Training:
For Time:
150' Walking Lunge
150' Bear Crawl
30 Dumbbell Box Step-Ups
100' Walking Lunge
100' Bear Crawl
20 Dumbbell Box Step-Ups
50' Walking Lunge
50' Bear Crawl
10 Dumbbell Box Step-Ups
Box: (24"/20")
Dumbbell: (Single 50/35)

Neel Kolhatkar Live
Lena Owen | On 23, Aug 2017
Privilege, diversity, stereotypes. Neel Kolhatkar takes the audience through a hilarious tour of societal issues. He sits down with The Creative Issue ahead of his headline comedy tour.
The Creative Issue: You've been a comedian since your youth. What drew you to performing?
Neel Kolhatkar: It began with a dare from my friends in primary school to audition for the school play, I received the main role and fell in love with it. I've always thought being the smallest kid at school drove me to seek out other ways to garner attention.
TCI: Your sketches and comedy often highlight social issues. Do you think it is important for comedians to call out society or do our massive failings just make for great material?
NK: I think most comedians tend to include their perspective of the world throughout their comedy despite some being more polished than others. It's not always a conscious choice but the failings of society are a common thread for a lot of us.
TCI: Have you ever heard a joke and thought it went too far?
NK: I've heard jokes and thought they weren't funny but I don't think a joke can ever go too far in an absolute sense. In the sense of pushing the subject matter and audience to a point that's needlessly disconcerting, a joke may be poorly structured but in terms of what is off-limits for subject matter or topic I don't think a comedian can ever go too far. If anything the best comedy is that which deliberately breaches the line of what's acceptable and finds the humour in said area.
TCI: You've been involved in international festivals including the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Have those experiences had an impact on how you approached your own headline tour this year?
NK: Not particularly, I think the material and show itself would be the same regardless of whether I did the festivals. The only impact would be the cities I travel to, with festival cities having already been covered.
TCI: Your Millennium Child show approached the issue of the lack of diverse role models. Is this a topic in your current tour?
NK: Yes, I do cover the topic and take it to a substantially more challenging place in this show, as with a lot of my material.
TCI: Your short films Modern Educayshun and The Privilege Game showcase the challenges of navigating privilege. Do you think we've made any progress in this area?
NK: Thinking long-term we have made progress, but in recent history the pendulum has swung the other way regarding our discourse around the topic and people are either pushing highly reactionary views or stifling opposing viewpoints so there's progress still to be had.
TCI: How do you think you've changed your approach to stand-up over the years?
NK: My stand-up has definitely become bawdier and darker over the last couple of years, I rely less on the act-outs and characters and use other methods of analogy or misdirection to create a punchline, while still dispersing a couple of the former skills throughout the show. I have become far more comfortable and confident on stage and am less afraid to push the audience past the point of comfort to highlight a point.
TCI: Who's your favourite audience for testing new material?
NK: An audience that doesn't know me, and a small one. Many of the little comedy bars around Sydney tend to be my usual stomping ground.
TCI: What's your next move?
NK: To continue on the path I am on and grow my audience and material. Also to build a profile within traditional media and work towards that simultaneously with the internet profile.

Contributors: Francis Kweku Amagloh 2012 Background: In low-income countries, most infants are given cereal-based complementary foods prepared at the household level. Such foods are high in phytate, which limits the bioavailability of nutrients, including iron, calcium, zinc, and in some cases proteins, which are crucial to the development of infants.

I played a session at Santino's in Washington Township last night after recording the next episode of the Michigan Poker Monster. Here are a couple of hands I remember from the night, which turned out to be my first loss for the year (glad that's out of the way).
It was a fairly nitty table to start, and then started loosening up as players joined the table. Two young players who have been on our show before, Garrett and Justin, were at the table, and also another solid player that won the three-man team tournament that I placed fourth in at Trip Kings many months ago.
I lost quite a few hands to start the session, just c-betting and getting out-flopped, out drawn. Was down $100 in the first hour and topped up. One hand in that first hour, I raise from the button with JTcc, get SB and MP to call me (loose callers). Flop is 642 one club. I c-bet and get two calls. Turn is 8c. I double barrel big with the flush draw and two overs and get two callers! I was really hoping for a club now, but instead it is a red 4 and SB bets gets a call, and I fold. Trip fours beat a pair of 6s with a straight draw. SB asks me if I was on a total bluff. I just smile.
Next interesting hand I have AQdd in the big blind, and I'm the only one to call a raise from MP loose cannon. He doesn't seem to read boards very well, but he knows how to bluff. Flop is 678 all hearts. I check, villain bets about ¾ pot, and I check raise. He lingers a few seconds with the cards in his hand, but he's folding the whole day. I may have been bluffing with the best hand, but I'm pretty sure I won a lot of equity with that raise and maybe got him to fold a lot of medium strength pocket pairs.
Finally, this is a hand that I probably tried to play too fancy. There is a$5 straddle from the button, it folds to me in the CO, and I make it $15 with AJo. Button probably thinks I have a losing image and this contributes in his decision to call with just about anything, most probably unconnected, unsuited cards. Flop is J-4-2. This villain likes to be aggressive and bluff, so I check with the intention to call two streets and lead the river big to represent a bad bluff. I know he thinks I bluff too much already.
But he checks behind. Turn is a 8, bringing a spade draw. I bet about the size of the pot, he calls without almost thinking about it. I'm sure he has close to nothing and he just thinks I am total bluffing. River is a 2, no spade. Now here is where I get fancy again, and I check. I guess he can have some eights in his range here, and I'm missing value by not betting out after taking the lead on the turn. But I feel like I have such a good read on this villain, I'm pretty sure he has nothing, and the only way I'm making any more money in this hand is to let him bluff.
He bets half pot. About same bet as my turn bet. I instacall, and he foolishly flips over T-6o. Did I miss value in this hand? I guess it really depends on how accurate my reads were on villain. Any comments on the other hands?

New WPA3 Wi-Fi Standard Released
The Wi-Fi Alliance says that WPA3's SAE is resistant to offline dictionary attacks where an attacker tries to guess a Wi-Fi network's password by trying various passwords in a quick succession.
Are WiFi Network Names Protected by the First Amendment?
Michigan police were called at a Planet Fitness gym earlier this month to investigate a bomb threat that ended up being only a prank after a naughty user named his WiFi network "Remote Detonator."
The 'Secure' WPA2 Wi-Fi Standard Has a Huge, Dangerous Flaw
When you set up a new Wi-Fi network, you're probably conditioned by now to check the "WPA2" box. You may not specifically know when or why someone advised you to do this, but it was solid advice. Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 is the current industry standard that encrypts traffic on Wi-Fi networks to thwart eavesdroppers. And since it's been the secure option since 2004, WPA2 networks are absolutely everywhere. They're also, it turns out, vulnerable to cryptographic attack.

Business Course of Vs Project Administration Process
Business as we speak is very powerful and competitive and to ensure that a company to outlive and stay competitive it must profit from the sources that it has. The most effective people to work with are those who are open to new business ideas. They often consider ISO 9001 as something the Quality Division needs to be targeted on or in many instances it is an after-thought; reasonably than a strategic and integral part of their general marketing strategy.
Some organizations only think about it when certainly one of their primary customers ask them are they ISO 9001 licensed or they encounter it on a bid questionnaire for a venture. Such businesses make use of atmosphere-friendly processes, and gain profit without harming the surroundings in any means.
The enterprise mannequin should tackle what customers need and how the group can meet these needs. Managers who really feel threatened when juniors come up with nice business concepts will do all they will to stamp down these ideas. What now we have described above is a basic enterprise process that's mistaken for a mission management course of.
Perhaps one of the foremost skills required of managers, project management is so vital that many firms rent individuals strictly to prepare and oversee various projects. To measure this on an ongoing foundation, the group must document each time a product is returned to be able to measure the performance and effectiveness of the ultimate inspection process.
Understanding what others are doing will enable you to know if it is going to be useful to forward on. Effective managers solely ahead information that is related and has a goal. Some examples include: buyer's notion of satisfaction, internal audits, monitoring and measurement of processes, measuring services and products, control of nonconformities, supplier efficiency, corrective and preventive actions.
