Remember the typewriter? Today, it is extinct.
Why Did Typewriters Die?
Four critical factors of the PC revolution spelled the demise of the typewriter. A new hardware platform, a simple operating system, a new breed of intuitive software programs and the right price point made this new tool – the personal computer – accessible by businesses and individuals around the world. The advent of the PC spelled the end to a business device that had been in use for almost 100 years.
What is the Next Business Dinosaur?
Today we are witnessing the demise of another staple of business – the physical whiteboard. You see them in almost every office and conference room. It is where the real discussion and collaboration take place. The problem is you can't share that discussion with people who are not in the room with you. Worse, at the end, someone usually takes out their phone and takes a photo of the discussion that just took place on the whiteboard. A recent survey we conducted showed that 68 percent of business professionals have more than six photos of whiteboards on their cell phones. 25 percent have fifteen or more photos of a whiteboard on their device.
With the accelerating adoption of touch technology and mobile devices in the workplace, the physical whiteboard will be as outdated as the typewriter in a few years. Businesses will soon have access to a broad based, low cost, highly interactive mobile whiteboard – one that lets you share, save and keep working on your ideas in real time.
Three Reasons the Old Whiteboard Will Die
(1) The Technology Has Hit The Tipping Point
Just as the PC killed the typewriter, tablets are the new hardware platform that will spell the demise of the physical whiteboard. New software-based visual collaboration – interactive or mobile whiteboarding – will bring the authenticity and simplicity of the physical whiteboard to highly interactive and mobile devices.
Today's workers are on the go, and companies need an inexpensive, light, easy-to-use solution that not only lets people capture their ideas and conversations as quickly digitally as they did on the old physical whiteboard, but lets them collaborate in real time with anyone around the world.
(2) Visual Collaboration is the Next Productivity Tool
How do we work? By communicating together. This is why email has been such a key productivity tool for so long. It is the #1 productivity tool on tablets. Web conferencing is another standard tool in today's business. The challenge there is that it is a one-way conversation, regardless of all the 'passing of the baton' we do. We watch, but we do not create. The ability to create and collaborate in real time has arrived. Nothing is more powerful than the ability to show someone what you are thinking and get an immediate reaction. It increases the productivity of teams working together, particularly those not in the same room.
Think about the impact Google Docs has had on the world. The ability to create standard office documents or spreadsheets together at the same time was so powerful that Microsoft and Box have also delivered offerings in this space.
We are visual by nature, and use images and drawings to quickly communicate ideas. Real time, visual collaboration will distinguish the 21st century 'whiteboards' letting people from different locations create in a free-form manner, see what each other are thinking, identify disparities and bring alignment. They will be able to save these visual discussions to return to them and keep evolving them. All of which makes businesses more efficient.
(3) It Drives Business and Saves Money
"This is going to cut my travel." That was the first comment I got from a technical sales person who saw a mobile whiteboarding solution. When I asked him why, he said, "Today, I have to get on a plane to get into a same room to have this type of conversation. I have to be in the same room to whiteboard. If I could do that over the wire, I'd be able to interact with my customers better." And the fact is, you can't interact like this in a web conference today
Even Forbes reported this month that an Internet connection is all that is needed to let employees "connect to work" and get their jobs done. In fact, Forbes specifically called out that the new collaborative technologies will allow us to work while we are on the go from our mobile devices.
Best of all is the cost. Today's mobile whiteboarding solutions can be purchased for a few dollars per user with real time collaboration services offered in the base price or as a subscription.
Better Customer Interactions. Better Business Outcomes
We are witnessing the death of the old whiteboard and a fundamental change in how we do business today. Interactive and mobile whiteboarding is coming of age right now. It can reduce your costs, drive better relationships and deliver more efficiency for today's highly mobile work force.

Well for a moment it was over then I don't think that it's over, now Now we can go on this way
Like nothing happened; nothing changed a bit But I wouldn't bet my life on it The feeling just
won't go away Leave me alone There's nothing wrong You wouldn't listen then Well fuck you I won't
tell you now If there is anything you feel Listen to what it tells you It won't hurt a bit to kneel
There was a time when I was easy 'cause Now I'm acting on my worst I know that I have you to
thank You never listened to a word I said And I just don't feel sorry now That it's you who has to
pay Fuck you I just won't tell you I spent a lifetime on you But now I'm back where I belong

Kiryat Malachi building hit by rocket 370. (photo credit:Ben Hartman)
After 15 rockets pounded an area slated for natural gas infrastructure construction during last week's conflict, the residents of Kiryat Malachi and Be'er Tuviya are bolstering their campaign against the site's planned location.Residents of the region collectively sent a letter on Sunday to the ministers of defense, interior and public security, as well as to the prime minister, demanding that the government work to immediately change the location of the natural gas facility planned to be in their midst.During Operation Pillar of Defense, more than 15 rockets landed in the area designated to hold the natural gas facility, with six buildings located in a 300-meter radius of the site receiving direct hits, according to the residents.The natural gas plant is supposed to contain 35 tons of natural gas and 9,000 cubic meters of diesel, as well as pipes leading to the facility that will at any given moment be carrying up to an addition 170 tons of gas, the residents said. This amount, they argued, is equivalent to 4,100 tons of TNT explosive material.Residents have been protesting the location of the plant for several years, and in June, hundreds protested in front of a National Committee for Planning and Building meeting after it officially approved plans for the new regional power plant.Previously, during a barrage of rockets that had plagued the area in March, Be'er Tuviya residents sent a petition to the High Court of Justice detailing their campaign. The project to build a 400-megawatt power plant was first promoted six years ago by Shikun V'Binui through its former subsidiary IPM Be'er Tuviya. However, due to public protest, Shikun V'Binui eventually backed out and sold IPM Be'er Tuviya to Triple-M Power Plants Ltd., according to the Be'er Tuviya Regional Council.Triple-M has repeatedly ensured that proper environmental protection measures will be undertaken when constructing the plant, and the plant will conform to the highest possible safety standards.In a report submitted prior to government officials prior to Operation Pillar of Defense, researchers found that a grad rocket falling in the area could crack the gas pipes and create "an explosive gas cloud with incalculable damage."The report, prepared by Dr. Yisrael Barzilai, a former director of hazardous materials at the Environmental Protection Ministry, stressed that the establishment of a natural gas facility in this location would bring unnecessary risk to a populated industrial area already filled with hazardous materials.Responding to the latest protest against the facility, Asaf Vitman, CEO of IPM Be'er Tuviya, stressed that the plant is being built in accordance with the laws and policies of the Israeli government."To improve the environment and reduce electricity costs in Israel, energy plants based on natural gas have been established all over the country, in the center of Tel Aviv, Ashdod and Haifa, among others," Vitman said. "In all of these areas rockets fell and tried to hurt Israel and its citizens."The Be'er Tuviya plant will comply with the strictest of European standards, and both safety and environmental surveys have already been conducted by experts who deemed the future facility safe, according to Vitman.During last week's conflict, a house located less than 40 meters from the planned gas pipeline was destroyed by a grad rocket, and another rocket fell on a logistics buildings situated just about the same distance from the site slated for gas facility construction, the residents explained."One can only imagine the intensity of the damage and the loss of life if instead of a home the grad had struck a gas facility," the residents said in a statement.Particular dangers would plague the thousands of people who visit the Big Shopping Center adjacent to the planned plant, as well as the seven ammonia storage facilities located in the area, the nearby vehicle fueling stations and the Central Bus Station – through which tens of thousands of people pass every day, according to the residents."It is inconceivable that the Israeli government is investing hundreds of millions in the protection of Israel's residents by producing and situating Iron Dome systems, but abandons the lives of 50,000 residents and exposes them to danger by approving the establishment of a natural gas plant in order to appease the private interests of wealthy individuals," said Adva Dror, director of the residents' campaign."These days illustrate, unfortunately, what we the residents have been shouting about for already four years – that the establishment of a facility in this place is an inconceivable scandal, which is liable to end in incalculable disaster."

Albuquerque Business First unveils Fastest Growing Companies honorees
- Rachel Sams
- Editor-in-Chief- Albuquerque Business First
- Email | LinkedIn | Twitter
We're excited to reveal Albuquerque Business First's 2013 Fastest Growing Companies honorees.
These companies have pulled off an amazing feat — they've posted revenue growth of at least 25 percent over the past few years. Specifically, those years were 2010 to 2012, a time when many businesses in New Mexico and nationwide were bleeding red ink, and many more closed.
Our Fastest Growing Companies honorees come from fields ranging from technology to public relations to finance. And, housing market crash notwithstanding, there's a mortgage company, a construction firm and a building supply business among them.
Click on the accompanying slideshow to see all 21 of our honorees. They're listed alphabetically. We'll reveal the rankings of New Mexico's highest-growth firms at our Fastest Growing Companies awards luncheon at Hotel Albuquerque July 25 and in our print edition July 26, and we'll tell you all about how these companies pulled off their rapid growth.
All 21 of these firms are privately held, for-profit companies. They're all based in New Mexico. They've been in business since 2009 and had sales or revenue of at least $500,000 in 2010. And they showed overall revenue growth from 2010 through 2012. Their percentage revenue growth will determine where each company ranks among the group.
Accounting firm Accounting & Consulting Group verified financial information for the companies. To protect confidentiality, ACG representatives did not share financial numbers with Albuquerque Business First, and provided company growth to us as a percentage.
Congratulations to all of our honorees.

EU calls on governments to monitor gender stereotypes in advertising
LONDON - The European Parliament voted today in favour of a report on how marketing affects equality between men and women and perpetuates gender stereotypes. The EU report, drafted by the Women's Rights Committee, was adopted with 504 votes in favour, 110 against and 22 abstentions.
The Committee is calling on member states to launch education initiatives with the aim of ending gender stereotypes, which 'significantly disparages the relationship between men and women'.
'Gender stereotypes often exist in advertising to the financial gain of big business,' says the report. 'It is self-evident that real differences between the sexes should be taken into consideration, but the point of departure must be the realisation that we as humans have more similarities than differences.'
Although not legally binding, the EU will now send a set of recommendations to the government to enforce tighter monitoring of the use of nudity and gender stereotypes in marketing campaigns. Labour MEP Mary Honeyball said it is also possible that the European Commission will use the report to draft new legislation.
MEPs are calling on the EU institutions and member states to develop awareness actions against sexist insults or degrading images of women and men in marketing.
The report also calls on member sates to study and report on the image of women and men in marketing, and for advertisers to consider carefully their use of extremely thin women to advertise products.
'The European Parliament notes that marketing and advertising portrayals of the ideal body image can adversely affect the self-esteem of women and men, particularly teenagers and those susceptible to eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.'
The report also recommends that broadcasters, publishers and advertisers adopt a more responsible editorial attitude toward the depiction of extremely thin women as role models and portray a more realistic range of body images.
The report, written by Eva-Britt Svensson, can be found at the European Parliament website. Paragraphs 9, 15, 18 and 25 have been removed following the final vote.

An Absolutely Stunning, Must See List: 252 Well-Sourced Obama "Issues"
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
Well sourced? The blog is written as if BO personally went out and stole your candy and kicked your puppy.
Keep blaming all our issues on one guy in DC instead of looking at your local and state officials or god forbid yourselves.
Obama didn't tell America to rack up their credit card debt and buy houses/cars they can't afford.
Obama didn't force you to eat twinkies until your diabetes kicked in.
He's been completely ineffective as a president but to insinuate he's the reason this country is in the gutter is naive.
The senate and congress effectively shut down as soon as he was elected to guarantee he'd only be a one term president.
Typical bipartisan politics are the cause for the majority of those 252 so called issues.

Senior BreAnna Brock received two awards at the banquet. |
April 17, 2012
COLUMBIA, Mo. - The Missouri Women's Basketball team officially wrapped up the 2011-12 season with its annual banquet this past Sunday, April 15. The program took a look back at the season, and recognized several student-athletes for their achievements through the course of the year.
Senior BreAnna Brock played a large part in the Tigers' successes this season and for her efforts, Brock was chosen for the Board Award as she averaged 8.2 rebounds per game during the season. She recorded 253 rebounds during the season, which is the fifth-most by any player in the Big 12 Conference this season. Brock was also awarded the Most Improved Player award for the second consecutive year. Brock tallied 426 points during her senior season, almost four times as many as she put up in her junior year (122). She more than doubled her number of blocks, rebounds, steals, assists and field goals made from her junior season to her senior season.
Freshman Morgan Eye received the Free Throw Award for her .826 free throw percentage this season, which also stands as the ninth-best season free throw percentage in program history. Eye sunk 19 of 23 free throw attempts this season.
Senior Christine Flores was recognized with the Defensive Award at the banquet. She was a key player for the Tigers this season as she averaged 3.0 blocks per game. Flores tallied 93 blocks in 2011-12, which is a single season record at Mizzou and her 209 career blocks is also a record for the program. Flores also led the team with 35 steals on the season.
Senior Bailey Gee was awarded the Dr. Joann Rutherford Coach's Award, named after the former Tiger coach. The award is given to the athlete who embodies hard work, leadership, dedication and unselfishness. Gee was chosen because of the previously mentioned characteristics as well as for her strong work ethic on and off the court. She presented herself as great role model throughout the season and earned the respect of the coaching staff, her teammates and fans.

God Save the Republic
By John Mallon
� 2005 by John Mallon
Catholic Online
Remember the old saying about Puritans? "A Puritan is someone who is terribly afraid that somebody somewhere is having a good time." Despite all my religious connections I don't know many Puritans these days, I am a Catholic and Catholics have always known how to have a good time.
However, there is a new form of Puritanism abroad today and they have tighter butts than the original Puritans ever had. These are the devotees of Political Correctness, who are terribly afraid that somebody somewhere is being offended.
It doesn't matter if a group that has fallen under the protection of the PCers is actually offended. They are going to be protected whether they like it or not.
At the moment I'm trying figure out just who is offended by the presence of the 10 Commandments in public buildings�and who needs to be protected from them. The anti-religionists display a degree of fussbudgetry one would expect from the Church Lady of Saturday Night Live fame. They seem to be terribly afraid that somebody somewhere might actually be holding up some standard of objective morality.
The offended parties may be those like the promoters of the Committee for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) treaty at the United Nations where the suggestion has been made that changes to sacred texts be mandated by treaty where they are offensive to the agenda of the Committee. Evidently they fail to recognize that such texts are held to be of divine origin by their adherents who are reluctant to take a blue pencil to God.
Anyway, this would all be harmless enough if American jurisprudence were not buying into this ersatz religion, and thereby sawing off the limb on which it sits. The Western legal tradition is rooted in the Judeo-Christian ethos. How many people know the Magna Carta was authored by a Catholic priest? (In fact, it was a bishop, Archbishop Steven Langton of Canturbury.)
The problem with exaggerating the "wall of separation" between Church and state is that morality and ethics are normally rooted in religious traditions. There is an old saying that "You can't legislate morality." How ridiculous! What on earth do you legislate if not morality?
Should theft cease to be a crime because it is prohibited in the 10 Commandments? Are laws against theft an imposition of someone's religion against thieves exercising their free choice to steal? Should we institute special rights for thieves so they won't be offended? Can a kleptomaniac say "This is the way God made me?"
This is no joke. In 1992 when the United States Supreme Court ruled on Planned Parenthood vs. Casey, Justice Anthony Kennedy, wrote:
"At the heart of liberty is the right to define one's own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life. Beliefs about these matters could not define the attributes of personhood were they formed under compulsion of the State."
With this decision the Supreme Court abolished all basis for law as we know it. It did so by codifying subjectivism over objective reality. The Supreme Court not only sawed off the branch on which they�and the basis of all law�sat, they chopped down the entire tree. If I am free to invent my own universe with its own rules to do whatever I wish who can stop me? Because if everyone has the right to define the nature of existence on their own, who is the Supreme Court or any lawmaking body to tell anyone what to do or not do?
Suppose in my universe I have the right to steal? Who are you to impose your beliefs on me? My rights, endowed by the creator are endowed by me because I created my universe and the Supreme Court backs me up. You may laugh, but according to PP v. Casey this is already the law of the land, awaiting a test case.
Perhaps some justices and lawmakers ought to read C.S. Lewis's The Abolition of Man because that is what they are engaged in.
What is law based on? In the Western tradition, seminal works like St. Thomas Aquinas's Treatise on Law trace the objective standard for right and wrong back to God.
Do they teach philosophy in law schools these days or assume the students studied it as undergrads? You know what they say about assuming. We like to say, "My right to swing my fist stops where your nose begins." But what if, in my made-up universe, I don't believe in the sovereign rights of your nose? Or those of a child in the womb?
Perhaps a good honest atheist might say that law is based on some kind of consensus. But consensus can change. Who says you won't be on the wrong side of the fence the next time it changes according to some sort of "climate of opinion" or "conventional wisdom?"
Black people were on the wrong side of the fence in 18th and 19th century America. The ...

You're seeing that damn J-Lo movie this weekend, right? I already saw it! Get this: creepier and better than you think! Definitely better than "Obsessed," which was not good or campy enough for human consumption. After you get your fix of the delicious Ryan Guzman, check back online to watch some of these classic stalker titles. Fatal Attraction (Netflix) Glenn Close is right: This movie is dated and treats mentally ill people unfairly. Here's where Glenn Close is wrong: It's still a watchable, entertaining movie still because Glenn Close is the best damn actress of the past 40 years. She is a risky artist who somehow got to be a gigantic star, and she did it by choosing projects that almost no one else could tackle. Adore her forever. "Dangerous Liaisons" is also an insane treat. Why did she do "Albert Nobbs" to us? Stalker (Hulu) The world did the right »

The Big Lottery Fund has now distributed £100m of funding through its People and Places scheme in Wales following its latest round of grants.
Last week 16 projects received grants totalling £5,655,857 for community projects across Wales. The People and Places programme was launched in 2005 to encourage community schemes and help those most in need. It awards grants of between £5,001 and £1m.
The largest grant in the latest round of funding was awarded to anti-smoking organisation Ash Wales Ltd, given £864,881 for a project aiming to encourage young people to stop smoking. Oxfam also received over £800,000 for a new venture helping people who are socially excluded.
Big Lottery Fund Wales committee member and chair of the People and Places committee, Gareth Newton, spoke of the importance and lasting results of the scheme. "It's programmes like People and Places which delivers on our promise to use National Lottery funding to regenerate and revitalise communities, tackle disadvantage head-on and leave a lasting legacy," said Newton.
Other projects benefitting from the recent round of funding included a support service for families of disabled children, a training and education programme for the homeless and a surplus food redistribution scheme.

£864,881 for ASH Wales is just ridiculous.I am spitting blood. This is part of a huge international chairty network that gets money from paharaceutical companies -selling nicotine replacement products. ASH Wale itelef got a large donation from Pfeizer back a couple of years back. Ash Wales only raises £18,000 itself - the rest of its £350,000+ income comes from government grants and subisidies from other charities that also are in receipt of government grants. The Lottery was not supposed to replace government spending - the NHS is their to provide stop smoking services to kids and adults. A vast number of smaller charities that do brilliant work with no government money in areas where children are really at risk - such as abuse - have lost out to this mammoth grant to a what is in effect a government charity. Simply outrageous.

Cougars might play 2010 game against Oregon at Qwest Field
Oregon AD Mike Bellotti says Cougars AD Jim Sterk called to talk about the move
Seattle Times staff reporter
Washington State's search to continue its series of football games at Qwest Field — and to balance its budget — could lead the Cougars back to a Pac-10 Conference opponent.
WSU has approached Oregon about playing a game at Qwest — presumably the Cougars' 2010 home game with the Ducks in Pullman — and has been in discussions to that effect with First and Goal, which operates Qwest.
Oregon athletic director Mike Bellotti confirmed Wednesday he had had a conversation with his counterpart at Washington State.
"Jim Sterk called me and said they may move our game there," Bellotti said.
Asked late last week whether there were talks ongoing to play the Ducks at Qwest, Sterk said only, "All you're going to get from me right now is, we're looking at our options. It's too preliminary.
"We're entertaining all options. Nothing is imminent."
As for whether a multiyear deal could be a possibility, Bellotti said, "We have not pursued that. The discussions have not even progressed."
Only months ago, WSU and Washington were close to a six-year deal that would have put the Apple Cup game at Qwest, one estimated to have brought as much as $6 million to $10 million per school over the life of the contract.
But that fell through as the schools squabbled over ticket allotment.
Meanwhile, the Cougars, who have played a nonleague game at Qwest each of the past eight seasons, have no opponent in place there for 2010.
The game has annually capped a week of WSU-related events in the area designed to bring west-side boosters and alumni closer to the school. School president Elson Floyd has been an open supporter of the Qwest game and surrounding activities.
At the same time, the WSU athletic department is like most in enduring hard budgetary times, exacerbated by the struggles of a rebuilding football program. The Cougars drew only 22,386 for their Pac-10 opener against Stanford on Sept. 5 and likely will see more slim home crowds this season.
Last week, regarding the future at Qwest, Sterk told The Spokane Spokesman-Review, "We need to create an event that drives more revenue."
Pac-10 associate commissioner Jim Muldoon said he couldn't recall of a team taking a league game off campus in the conference since WSU regularly did it before the expansion of Martin Stadium three decades ago.
WSU played its "home" games with Washington from 1956-80 in Spokane, as well as games with some other conference opponents, last of which is listed by WSU as the California game in 1981. The Cougars also played USC in the then-brand-new Kingdome in Seattle in 1976.
Muldoon said he doesn't think anything in league bylaws would prevent WSU from making the move unilaterally, especially since "they've established [Qwest] as sort of a secondary home field."
That's also the belief of Bellotti, who said, "If I did have veto power, I wouldn't use it."
Anderson quits football
Jeshua Anderson, Washington State's second-leading receiver last season, has decided to put away his football gear to concentrate on track full-time, the school said Wednesday.
Anderson, a junior, started both games this season, catching four passes for 66 yards. He caught 33 in 2008 for 305 yards and two touchdowns.
His football success paled in comparison to his track achievements. His freshman season he won the NCAA 400-meter hurdle title in 48.69, a school record, and the USA Junior Championship in 49.28. Last spring, Anderson won the Pac-10, West Regional and repeated as NCAA champion.
With Anderson departing the team, WSU will be missing three starters on offense Saturday when the Cougars host SMU. Receiver Gino Simone (concussion) and guard Zack Williams (high ankle sprain) have already been ruled out.
