Here is another lesson for all you Phineas and Ferb lovers. Here is a lesson on "how to draw Phineas easy", step by step. There is only one way to draw Phineas easy and that is from the side. Out of all the poses that you see him in, there is only one way that you see Phineas, and that is from the side. I don't know what else to say about this lesson besides have fun drawing this star from Disney's Phineas and Ferb. I shall return later with more drawing fun so stay tuned in to see what else I have in store.

Google Tech Lead: "Engineering Management Is Dying"
I recently made a career move from being a hands-off manager, to what Google calls a Tech Lead/Manager. In part, I did it because I love coding and felt the need for a change, but I'm also looking to the future.
Engineering management, as a distinct competence, is disappearing from the software world. It's been undone by both technological and cultural change; by years of failure applying standard project management techniques where they don't belong, and equally, from the widespread acceptance of Agile (however you define it) as THE one-size-fits-all way to do things. But mostly, it's been undone by a continuing erosion of responsibility accorded to managers.
To a degree, we had it coming: equating engineering management with project management and project management with PERT, we added little value for many years. The people who created Agile (Beck, Cockburn, Popendeck, etc.) realized that wasn't the way. They thought deeply about process, motivation, and so on. Today they're surrounded a vast army of scrum-masters and evangelists, recycling (competently, mostly) the same insights, and an even larger crowd performing half-assed renditions of steps learned by rote: "Yeah, we do agile. We have a standup every day." Many of these renditions have the professionalism, but not the passion, of a small-town talent show.
The growing acceptance of agile as the 'one true religion' means that, regardless of whether it works for us, we check the Agile box and stop thinking about process. It's hard to add value that way.
The real problem, though, runs much deeper.
No managers need apply
Certainly, outsourcing is a factor. If engineering moves overseas, engineering management jobs follow. But the real issue is companies that do development on-shore, but do it with vastly reduced numbers of managers, who have vastly reduced responsibilities.
The 300-person game company Valve made headlines recently as a spotlight fell on their "boss-less" organization. Similar companies (GitHub, W.L. Gore, Morning Star) exist both inside and outside the software world. There are elements of this philosophy at work at Google, where it's not unusual to see 200-person projects headed by an Engineer.
Drucker saw it coming. In the '80s, he predicted the rise of the "information-based-organization". He saw information as enabling an extremely flat structure, which like an orchestra, consisted of technical experts who perhaps dreamt of moving from second bassoon to first bassoon, or from a good orchestra to a better one, but had no interest in pursuing a career in conducting, a.k.a. management.
In software this is clearly happening. In a well functioning team, most of the feedback (information) an engineer needs comes directly from the process: compilers with built in analytics, online, peer-driven, code reviews, continuous builds, and automated tests.
[Edit: As Josh Barratt commented, another important trend is that tools and services like Puppet, Chef, Capistrano, Github, App Engine, EC2, Heroku, etc., reduce complexity and thereby also reduce the need for engineering management.]
Management as social work
The traditional definition of management is "getting things done through people". Former Intel chief Andy Grove recognized this when he recommended we "measure managers based on their team's output". Drucker puts the same emphasis of accomplishment:
To be more than a slothful steward of the talents in his keeping, the executive has to accept responsibility for making the future happen. It is (this) that distinguishes the great business from the merely competent one, and the business builder from the executive-suite custodian.
Now engineering managers divide much of their time between status
reports (which often say nothing of how the work is progressing), and a
growing load of HR paperwork. There is little that might be construed
as "making the future happen". Instead, we tend to the career
aspirations of our charges, show or feign an interest in them as
people, provide formal feedback as needed for legal and compensation
purposes, mediate disputes, put under-achievers on "performance plans"
and carry out the occasional firing. All the while the hackers
themselves tend to the business of building things. Our new
responsibilities are valuable, but they're not management. We have
become social-workers.
One HR function managers may not get to perform is the one that counts: "We do everything to minimize the authority and power of the manager in making a hiring decision" a Google executive was quoted as saying and it's certainly true. But it's just the most articulate expression I've seen of a growing phenomenon.
If there's one thing about software engineering that everyone agrees on, it's that nothing matters more than the people. Anyone who has built a team, scouring resumes, learning about the candidates, screening the best and selling them on the position knows what an intense experience it can be. It establishes a strong relationship between the hired and the hiring manager, and more importantly it establishes in the manager a deep commitment to the success of his people. Removing this task from the manager's responsibilities further lessens the role.
Now what?
What we do now is a personal choice that each manager has to make for herself, based on her own talents and interests. As I mentioned above, I'm getting hands-on again. I think this will make me a better manager because I'm experiencing first-hand the troubles my team faces in their work.
I'm also working on two other things that Drucker might recommend. He wrote:
Information is data endowed with relevance and purpose. Converting data into information requires knowledge. And knowledge, by definition, is specialized. The information-based organization requires far more specialists….
I'm becoming a specialist in two aspects of the software process that
hackers ignore. The first is applying data, metrics and analytics to
process improvement, and the second is structuring the work to enable
people to have a better work-life, which I call positive software
engineering. Not surprisingly, these are the two subjects I write about
on this blog.

Aging Room M356, the newest offering from Habana Cuba, is born from a genuine love for tobacco. As Rafael Nodal, president of the company, explained it, the tobaccos in the blend were originally intended for Habana Cuba's highly-rated Swag line. However, there were not enough of these leaves to meet... - More the level of production that they had planned, so they set them aside for a future blend. That blend is Aging Room M356.
These stogies are peppery, woody, and complex with a little bit of caramel sweetness and some of the best construction you'll find anywhere. As for the brass knuckles on the band, that's another story. According to Hank Bischoff from Habana Cuba, he and Rafael Nodal were visiting the aging room and discovered some brass knuckles on one of the shelves. As it turned out, one of the rollers left them there, and Hank and Rafael saw it as a good omen. "The knuckles were looking out for our blend," Hank explained. "So we included them on the band, box, artwork, etc., so they can keep looking out for us and this great blend."
We invite you to Aging Room for yourself—the tobaccos in the blend won't be around forever, and whichever size you choose, we guarantee you'll be impressed.

On Sunday, Cupid's arrows will be flying, and sweethearts across the world will be celebrating the day of love. But not everyone will be spending the holiday with a loved one of the two-legged variety.
One in five adults worldwide would rather spend Valentine's Day with their pet than their significant other, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll of more than 24,000 adults from 23 countries were surveyed.
While France ranked last in the poll with 90 percent saying they would rather spend the holiday with a partner than pet — no surprise considering its capital, Paris, is known as the "City of Love" — the U.S. ranked fifth, with 27 percent of Americans saying they would prefer to spend the day of romance with a furry friend.
Would you rather treat Sparky than Sam on Valentine's Day? Does Fluffy deserve to be spoiled more than Fiona this year? Forget the squeak toys and pass up the catnip. Instead, cook up a savory meal for your pet to express your love. At Atlantic Publishing, we have two books for that.

Pruning the forum database.
They are no doubt a bit dearer than the low cost routers with few 'extras'
The one those pics were taken from is made by Draytek ... one of their Vigor range.
I suspect those who think you need to educate her to act wisely rather than try to lock her out of the real world have a point.
As it's a laptop, your stepdaughter will probably take it out of the house and use it in various locations, so all these suggestions about setting up filtering in the router strike me as rather misguided.
my fix for this type of situation was to buy a very second hand router from ebay that supported DD-WRT . http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/router-database At the time I found an identical question asked on demonoid.com forums which I was going to link to...Unfortunately demonoid is down & out at the moment. but blocking facebook is do able Iam sure Iam not the only person using DD-WRT on the forums & after all DD-WRT is linux & it is free

Meyer's picks sing from same sheet
16 Apr 2012
RYAN VREDE writes Heyneke Meyer's picks for assistants will form a cohesive unit and aid in reducing the stress that will accompany preparing a team in a week for the England series.
On Sunday Meyer announced Rassie Erasmus as his man for the high-performance general manager role, and Johann van Graan (forwards), Ricardo Loubscher (backs) and John McFarland (defence) as his assistants. Basil Carzis takes over as conditioning coach.
Meyer's predecessor Peter de Villiers compiled a coaching team with differing playing philosophies and that ultimately was a significant contributor to their demise. Backs coach Dick Muir was little more than a well paid spectator by the end of his tenure as senior Springboks player convinced De Villiers that Muir's fanciful expansive approach was ineffective in Test rugby. Forwards coach Gary Gold was largely a pragmatic man but he commanded little respect from the senior forwards, particularly those from the Bulls.
And while this is not an endorsment of the new crew's aptitude for Test rugby – that will be tested in the coming years – there will be none of the cohesion issues that plagued the previous trio given that they know and share Meyer's playing philosophy.
Erasmus's relationship with Meyer grew during the former's time as director of rugby at the Stormers. He was in constant contact with Meyer, picking his brain about technical, psychological and recruiting aspects of coaching. It is no coincidence that many of the Stormers' current structures closely resemble the Bulls'. Meyer has come to respect Erasmus's rugby intelligence and his work ethic and while his role is broad, Erasmus will be consulted on tactics. But Erasmus is far from a yes-man and this will benefit the Springboks as he will challenge Meyer to explore different dimensions of his coaching should any become stale or ineffective.
Van Graan was developed under Meyer at the Bulls and is highly-rated by him. An astute analyst and progressive thinker who shares Meyer's unrelenting work ethic, he is an exciting appointment.
McFarland is a trusted lieutenant who Meyer recruited to the Bulls in the early part of his tenure. He attempted, unsuccessfully, to take him with him to Leicester when he was appointed there in 2008 and has insisted on his appointment now. In their prime McFarland shaped the Bulls into a formidable defensive unit and his work was central to their Super Rugby success in 2007, 2009 and 2010.
Loubscher was not Meyer's preferred appointment to oversee the back division. Allister Coetzee turned down his offer to continue in his role as head coach of the Stormers and Meyer's other options were tied up in contracts. However, Meyer purposefully upskilled Loubscher at the Bulls and his education under Bulls attack coach Todd Louden in 2007 was an important part of his development. Loubscher's ability to inject innovation, unpredictability and penetration to Springboks' backs will be under intense scrutiny.
That the assistants have only been appointed just over a month and a half before their first Test undoubtedly undermines the team's cause. However, their familiarity with and buy-in for Meyer's method is a positive. How and whether they are able to mould the team into one with the level of synergy and tactical understanding to beat England will be of much interest.

16 Apr 2012, 10:35 am…but bekker is still playing bloody ordinary and is nowhere near his 2009 form. Also…Matfield is a bloody polite guy.
16 Apr 2012, 10:37 am@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-51: I wonder what's up with Bekker. Fatigue perhaps…
16 Apr 2012, 10:43 amWe have excellent locks available. Vic won't be missed, indeed his return will be a step backwards.
16 Apr 2012, 10:46 amwell it was a barrage of Stormer virulence.
Fuckadilly, Nama and Davey seemed to be particularly upset.
Thankfully they are all sleeping it off and will be back once their colostomy bags have been changed.
16 Apr 2012, 10:51 amI must say that I was bitterly disappointed with the Stormers loosing … but reflecting over the weekend, hey, this was the one to lose and they sure went down fighting.
This said, taking a macro view of SA rugby, and then reading this thread, I do get the feeling that for the FIRST TIME EVER there is true professionalism rising to the top. What an awesome position for SA Rugby to be in to appoint a Professional coach who brings in a professional coaching team i.e. like what Meyer is now doing. Rassie appointment is awesome. EXACTLY what Meyer needs to give take his message to Unions (like Stormers and Cheethas) and ensure he gets left field astute technical and tactical input. BRILLIANT!
And thanks to the Bulls for making sure that this was implemented .. .what 10 years ago? And aren't SARU lucky that they can now just cooky cut this to Boks. That is right – they got lucky!
NZ have been doing this since 1996. FINALLY Boks catch up.
Which brings me back to the Crusaders – Stormers game. The most satisfying feeling I get is that you can feel it from the NZ players and Fans that they KNOW that the South Africans are catching and have potentially caught up. They KNOW that they ultimately cannot compete – financially as well as player depth – but SA is a power house in these departments.
There is REAL fear with our Kiwi brethren … they have had it too good for too long, and they know it. They now need to manipulate the refs, the crowds, synically take players out ala '56.
I believe Heyneke and Rassie will once and for all transform Springbok Rugby back to its rightful place. And I am a die hard Western Province supporter … and it is brilliant that a professional outfit like what Meyer built at the Bulls, blended with the likes of Rassie, will be in charge of the Boks and SA Rugby.
Watch this space.
16 Apr 2012, 10:52 am@Brigadier Van Zyl(Brigadier Van Zyl)-51: Good manners are no doubt important but are irrelevant to this conversation. Schalla is also one of the politest people you could ever meet but that should not influence his selection either.
16 Apr 2012, 11:06 amrugbystudent – Preferred backline:-
15.) Joe Pieterson/F Steyn
14.) Bryan Habana
13.) JPP / Who knows what J Fourie wants to do
12.) F Steyn /JDV
11.) Francois Hougaard
10.) Morne Steyn
9.) Fourie du Preez -
16 Apr 2012, 11:52 amWhy Morne Steyn and JP Pietersen? They are not on form.
16 Apr 2012, 13:15 pm"I'm also not convinced about the benefits of using the Bulls' defensive coach. Their defence is actually quite porous in my opinion."
The Bulls have conceded the third lowest number of tries so far. The Stormers and the Chiefs have each conceded 8, the Highlanders 10, and the Bulls 11. But, they have scored 26, compared to the Stormers' 12. The Stormers give away 0.67 tries for every one they score, while the Bulls gives away 0,42 for every one they score. Porous defence………….?
16 Apr 2012, 13:22 pmIf Matfield returns it'll be another poor decision from him. He should decline the invitation…..just like he should have declined the invite to commentate.
16 Apr 2012, 13:35 pm@bangkok-bok(bangkok-bok)-52: Can be lack of match sharpness. He hasnt played in over 8 months before the start of the Season. I hope after he recovers from the injury his body will be used to the pace and physicality of top class rugby.
16 Apr 2012, 14:25 pm@stormer in a teacup(stormer in a teacup)-53: Who are these excellent locks you rave about? Keep in mind that Vic is the benchmark, please elaborate on excellent…
16 Apr 2012, 14:30 pm@Sasuke(Sasuke)-61: Bekker is made of glass… No rugby player in the history of the game gets injured as easily as he does…
16 Apr 2012, 14:42 pmI am 99% certain. You have the bulk of the backline that Meyer will select. I add Lambie and Aplon. Bolter maybe Willie Le Roux
16 Apr 2012, 16:41 pm@Blue Label(Blue Label)-63: No one else gets played into the ground like Bekker for the third year running.
16 Apr 2012, 16:42 pm@Blue Label(Blue Label)-62: Bekker, Etzebeth, Elstadt, Kruger have all been doing very well thank you. They have been dominating their overseas opponents, especially Bekker.
16 Apr 2012, 16:44 pm@the artist formerly known as gunther(gunther)-54: Some of us sensible people – ie those from down south – claim Meyer as our own from his days at SWD and as the Stormers' forward coach. If it weren't for us then Mallett wouldn't have picked him for the Boks and subsequently recommended he goes to the Bulls. Face it, a soutie rescued the Bulls
16 Apr 2012, 16:49 pm@Michael(mikeybrass)-67: and a coloured coach from Galvendale in PE rescued the Stormers…..
Are you sure you want to have this p i s s i n g contest?

16 Apr 2012, 16:55 pm@logie_Jumpbuck(logie_Jumpbuck)-68: I have no problem with AC. He is after all still a Caapie and has to seek an improvement on the PE
16 Apr 2012, 16:57 pm@logie_Jumpbuck(logie_Jumpbuck)-68: PS. don't be so sensitive china. After all, the Bulls supporters claim him as 100% theirs and forget his origins.
Sadly, certain other people are doing it in reverse by claiming "Bull Cabal" rubbish.
16 Apr 2012, 16:59 pm@Michael(mikeybrass)-71: not sensitive at all…..just adding some banter on a monday afternoon. Alister played for EP as well…..I know, I'm from there.
16 Apr 2012, 17:08 pm@logie_Jumpbuck(logie_Jumpbuck)-72: AC was a pretty decent player in his day. I enjoyed watching him play.
16 Apr 2012, 17:59 pmA soutie?
I presume you have heard him speak.
16 Apr 2012, 19:57 pm@the artist formerly known as gunther(gunther)-74:
hehe, technically, in terms of the definition he is certainly not a soutie.
But then again, some of the hardcore old folk in Pretoria probably still sees the Cape (colony) as part of the British Empire. So, the fact that he spent a year or so in the Cape makes him a soutie for them in that sense
It's also true that (in a Pretoria sense) the name "Heyneke" is quite suspiciously outlandish sounding- i mean they would have preferred it to be something more hardcore like Frik, Bakkie or Bees. And he is also quite a snappy dresser for a Bull- I reckon his dress sense is somewhere in between those of oom Wynie and Frans Ludeke on the one side and Josep Guirdiola on the other side. That could also make him a slightly dodgy figure for those in certain parts of Blue bull country.
So, all in all, Michael might have some sort of a point in calling him a soutie if you use your imagination
16 Apr 2012, 20:42 pmOkay,
I have been waiting for someone to say something meaningful about Basil Carzis, the new conditioner of the Boks. To my mind he is one of, if not THE best in the business. Under his conditioning oversight, and possibly his philosophy, the Bulls have become physically more formidable. In fact, there is only one other conditioner who would have done that post justice, and he is a now an ex-Blue Bulls junior rugby conditioner who has joined the Sharks.
Watch for the Boks taking their physicality to a whole new level under Basil.
16 Apr 2012, 23:16 pmindeed robbo.
your nic might well give them food for thought.
although we know you are a full on matie crunch.
17 Apr 2012, 03:15 am@mshiniwami(mshiniwami)-69: Good squad, but I'd leave Steyn out. Much like Grant, he has no place in test rugby due to his limited abilities and tactical ignorance. I also don't think Kolisi and Stander have earned Bok spots yet.
The squad should be trimmed to 30 as follows:
3.Du Plessis,Nel
9.Hougaard, Sarel
11.Habana, Le Roux
13.De Jongh,Fourie
14.Aplon, JPP
15.Lambie,Pietersen -
17 Apr 2012, 15:30 pm@mshiniwami(mshiniwami)-69: @garth(garth)-78: i am so glad that you are no selector
17 Apr 2012, 15:32 pm@mshiniwami(mshiniwami)-69: JPP and Fourie and JdV , surely they are past their dates, Eberson , JJ even Olivier are better now
Have your say

Wild Records film won Best Feature DocumentaryThanks for all the Wild bandmembers that were able to come out to the Phoenix Film Fest, we won Best Feature Documentary! Wild Records Documentary touring the USA! XPN Music Film Festival in Philadelphia Billboard's article on Los Wild OnesWild Records owner Reb Kennedy and "Los Wild Ones" director-producer Elise Solomon take a break after the Tuesday screening of her film"I hate iTunes," Wild Records owner Reb Kennedy said after a Tuesday screening of the film about his label and artists, "Los Wild Ones." "And I hate to compromise. But we lost to iTunes," Kenndy continued. Wild Records, an independent Los Angeles label rooted in, but not limited to, rockabilly, will continue to press vinyl LPs, in addition to selling downloads, for the first time in its 12 years of existence. They'll be getting out of the CD business within a few months, which Kennedy, an avid record collector, has no problem with. This year alone, Wild Records has released six albums, and Kennedy tells Billboard he will put out another 15 albums by year's end, stepping for the first time into the digital arena. They will continue to make records in their garage studio where complete LPs are recorded in single, day-long sessions. "Los Wild Ones" director Elise Solomon found him when she was looking for music for a narrative feature. Taken by the stories of five or six of Wild Records' L.A. acts -- all of whom were Mexican-American -- she put the feature on hold to do the rock doc. The film encapsulates a scene that's centered in the Echo Park section of L.A., but with a reach largely focused in Europe. "I wanted to show the scope of how much more this music is appreciated elsewhere than in the U.S.," Solomon said, noting that the bands may have a look that suggests the '50s but their styles pull in various eras of rock 'n' roll, country and blues. "This is all-encompassing music." Kennedy, a Dubliner who moved to L.A. to work with older rockabilly artists and now has a roster of 23 acts he manages, books and records, railed against media pegging his label -- and the film -- as a Hispanic rock story. His point of view is that the focus of the film, on artists such as Gizzelle, Omar Romero and the Stringpoppers and Luis and the Wildfires, owes to their dedication to the music and the label. "They love the music, but in the Hispanic community, you see that they have no heroes beyond Lalo Guerrero, Ritchie Valens," Kennedy says. "Where are the [musicians] they can look up to?"

Since then, we have developed a stable of 17 of the world's hottest rockin' acts. Wild Records appreciates and understands the influence that the original rockabilly legends have had and continue to have on the rockin scene. Wild Records does not look to the past with the development of the label or the acts on the labels. We believe the music of the bands of our label is as relevant as any other genre of music of today. Wild Records will continue to develop our label and seek to find further talents to add to our roster. -Wild Records - The Wildest Sounds Around The People That Make Wild Records Work: Reb Kennedy - Founder, A/R, Band Management, Artist Development, Record Producer/Mastering Hayden Kennedy - Owner, Producer Jenny Lin-Kennedy - Retail Sales Coordinator, Website Designer/Moderator Omar Romero - Musician/Session Musician (Guitar, Harmonica, Bass, Percussion), Head Studio Engineer Luis Arriaga - Graphic Designer/Session Musician (Rhythm Guitar) Alexxis Maae - Head of Sales/Marketing Angel Hernandez - Musician/Session Musician (Drums, Percussion), Asst Studio Engineer Victor Mendez - Musician/Session Musician (Piano, Upright Bass, Violin) Iggy Garcia - Musican/Session Musician (Bass/Upright Bass) Jeff Gerow - Musician/Session Musician (Drums, Percussion) Alex Vargas - Musician/Session Musician (Bass/Upright Bass, Vocals, Piano) Dave Williams (Melrose Music Mastering) - Mastering Engineer The Key Printing and Binding - Sleeve Design OC Weekly on Wild Records Galaxy Show |

1. a fun online game where everyone either says JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA or lah.

A game that was great once, but now full of spammers, fags and plain idiots. Cool only when played with trusted friends. Gunbound is full of crap players now man.
4. | gunbound | ||
A game that is taken over by boomer pros, n00bs, cheaters, and mexicans. You're lucky if you don't lag out, and noone speaks your language, so you can't use teamwork. Oh yeah, and botters suck too. "Gunbound sucks hairy beanbag"
5. | Gunbound | ||
An online computer game, much like Worms ,originating from Korea, that used to be great.
The English version has now been overrun by: 1. Singaporeans who always say "Liao" 2. Latin Americans who speak barely any English whatsoever 3. Pros who have made far too many multiple accounts and play in the beginner zone to get easier money 4. Stat whores that bulk up on money items in the no stat zone, just for money, or ones with the whole Gold outfit 5. Hackers or scammers that ask to "trade," as long as you give your item first 6. And far, far more people than there used to be on the game, causing a lot of lag, and making it difficult to gain a rank People in a chat room in the game:
IgiveFREEitems: Give me your ID and password, so I can give you free angel wings! GBadministrator748251245: We have made a new security that if you type your password here, it doesn't show up! See? ****** Singapore241235: Liao poeple dnut pley rite wya liao! |
6. | gunbound | ||
A fun, addicting online game where you choose a mobile tank and try to shoot enemy tanks with different types of weapons. You can customize your player (called an avatar) with new avatar items that you buy with gold (that you earn from playing) or real cash (the stupid way to go). Too bad there are too many idiots and people who don't speak English. Also, there are lots of glitches and crashes that make the game a bit less pleasant than I would like. Watch out for hackers! Me: ready up people!
someone: jajajajajajaja! QUE PAAAAAAAAASA! tu mama es una puta! jajajajaja! Me: >_<;; *game starts* *misses a shot* someone: OMG YOU MISSED YOU FRICKING n00B!!!!!!11 Me: ... |
7. | Gunbound | ||
An overall good game. The gamplay is somewhat similar to Worms. Due to the servers being overrun with people who tend to forget that it is just a game, a newcomer to the game can get discouraged very easily. Newguy789: *misses shot in first game ever, ends up hitting a team mate*
Teammate: OMFG YOU GAWD DAM NOOB! You SUK! I CAN'T BELEAVE I'M ON THE SAME TEAM WITH A Gawd Dam Noob! (ect...) |

By: Nancy Roberts, Computing Columnist
A couple of months ago, I was doing some research for a client. To that end, I was visiting some competitors' websites, looking at their (very specific) product offering.
The next thing I knew, I was being deluged with ads for that product category wherever I went on the Internet. I might not even have noticed it, as, I regret to say for advertisers, I (and many others) have become very adept at "not seeing" ads on websites, except that this product category had my attention because of my client.
At first amusing, it soon became annoying. And I could only imagine the potential for embarrassing depending on what product you were searching--and who happened to be shoulder surfing as you were innocently going about everyday business at another time.
Marketers, of course, will suggest that by searching for a particular product, say, hairspray, you were "raising your hand" in interest, thereby offering yourself up as a willing victim to advertising for that (and related) products. And, to an extent, they're right. If I'm looking for a vacation in Mexico, for example, I might very well want to get lots of offers for special deals on hotels, cars, or condo rentals. On the other hand, I may have just wanted to get a sense of price range for hearing aids, and suddenly I'm being tracked across the wilds of cyberspace by hearing aid offers, along with all sorts of other products aimed at an aging population.
Now, with the addition of Google's Chrome (evidently, reluctantly), all the major browsers will offer a "Do Not Track" option. Users can now opt out of this type of marketing, but must do so actively. And, Chrome has only agreed to offer this option in its next release, with the added caveat that Chrome (as is true of all browsers) is a "work in progress," and can always remove the option at some later date.
Depending on your browser, or browsers of choice, how to implement Do Not Track will vary. For example, in Firefox, "This feature is not enabled by default. You can find the Do Not Track request on the Privacy pane. On Windows, go to Tools > Options... > Privacy. Click to check the box next to 'Tell websites I do not want to be tracked.'"
The specific instructions can be found by searching on "Do not track" and your browser name.

Early action
As the McCourt trial kicks off, each side has struck blows. Frank won on several motions to limit the evidence and exhibits admissible at trial, while Jamie's counsel had an uninterrupted half hour to talk about Frank's alleged document switcheroo. This is only the beginning of what looks to be a long trial, despite a passing buzz about the possibility of a quick settlement. Much more later. Follow on Twitter for quick updates.

In response to Mark...
The best case scenario for Dodger fans who want McCourts out of Major League Baseball is for Jamie to win, or get half the all the McCourts' assets.
I think the worst case scenario for the Dodgers to remain in one of the McCourt's hands, is for Frank to win hands down, not with the MPA, but with his side valuation of the all the McCourt's assets. The less that Frank has to pay Jamie in the Final Settlement, the longer he can control the Dodgers..
I don't believe Jamie's argument for one moment that she wanted to own a Major League baseball team. I think she wants to take control of the Dodgers so she can be the managing partner to handle sale of the Dodgers to the highest bidder, and get a bigger chunk of the sale.
This divorce isn't about lost love, or infidelity. This divorce is all about money. One doesn't go to the brink like this, unless both sides are gambling for a bigger payout.okojo -- I very much disagree about Jamie and think a worst-case scenario could play out in which both Frank and Jamie end up divorced but co-owners of the team -- without MLB ownership's approval.
Another worst-case scenario is that she gets half of the team and retains it even after Frank sells (voluntarily or otherwise). Jamie's spendthrift behavior would eventually drag the team through bankruptcy court (if it isn't headed there already).
Mark -- I don't think my first worst-case scenario (joint ownership after a divorce) is likely to work, so I expect there would be a dissolution of assets.- SELLTHETEAM!August 30, 2010 at 5:57 PM
local LA news kept saying they expect the court proceedings to last only 11 days,
I'm guessing they're very wrong (?)

Oasis Hotel (AAA) - 1 night - Swimming Pool
Cairo sightseeing
With a population of around eighteen million people, Cairo is Africa's largest city by far. Yet despite its size, Cairo retains a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Its long and colourful history dates from the 7th century AD, when it was established by the Arab leader Amr ibn al-As, and called Fustat (the tent). Today you'll enjoy a half-day sightseeing tour of two of the city's most celebrated sights, which help to show the contrast between ancient and modern Cairo. At Giza, to the west of the city, the enigmatic Sphinx and great pyramids still stand on the edge of the empty desert overlooking the city. More than 4000 years old, the pyramids are the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that remain intact – a testimony to the ingenuity and skill of their builders. The famed Egyptian Museum holds many thousands of exhibits; your local guide will focus on the Tutankhamun collection – probably the world's greatest archaeological find. You'll see the treasure found in the tomb of the boy-king: the jewel-encrusted golden mask, the golden sarcophagus and throne, plus many everyday articles, which were entombed with him to be used in the afterlife. Although a wonderful experience for all, it will bring together all the things the kids have been learning about at school … and give you a taste for what's to come at the Valley of the Kings, the burial place of Tutankhamun! In the evening you board the overnight train to the southern city of Aswan.
Overnight sleeper train (C) 2 bed bunks couchette berth - 1 night (BD)
Arriving in Aswan in the morning, you see that it is here that the Nile runs deep and fast between granite rocks as the desert encroaches on the river. Even to travellers in ancient times, the town was legendary as the entrance to the kingdom of Nubia. Today it's still something of a frontier town, where the Arab Middle East meets black Africa. With its mixed population of Egyptians and Nubians, Aswan is quite unlike any other town in the country, and a fascinating place to visit. By virtue of its position on the old caravan route, it has always been a trading centre and we thoroughly recommend a visit to the packed bazaar where merchants display a wealth of exotic spices, carpets, leather goods and countless other wares. Kids will be thrilled by the sight of donkey carts and men in flowing robes and turbans. The climate in winter is almost perfect – hardly a drop of rain falls here and the temperature hovers around 25 degrees C. In the afternoon there may be time to take a taxi out to visit the temple of Isis at Philae. There are many other sites to be seen around Aswan and your Group Leader may be able to organise some, for example to the remarkable Unfinished Obelisk or a fun camel ride (all additional charge). In the evening there is a trip across the river to a Nubian village where you enjoy dinner at one of the local houses.
Sara Hotel (AAA) - 1 night - Swimming Pool (BD)
Luxury felucca cruise
You board the luxury felucca and settle down to relax. The vessel is equipped with 12 beds on deck with an enclosed tent-like canvas separating every 2 beds. There is also a portable toilet and shower on board. The Nile has a fascination all of its own and remains the principal focus for most visitors to Egypt as well as for the people in the country. In ancient legend it was the very giver of life, and the rich silt deposited by its annual flooding created the fertile plain. This was cultivated intensely to sustain the population that lived along the river; even in modern times it both feeds and provides a livelihood for millions of people. For your last night on board, the crew will prepare a surprise for some fun on the Nile.
During your cruise, you'll visit the temple at Kom Ombo, uniquely dedicated to two gods: Haroeris (Horus the elder) and the crocodile-headed Sobek, god of the Nile. Kids (and adults?) will cringe at the mummified crocs on display!
Luxury Felucca (CC) - 2 nights (BLD x 2)
On the Nile Breeze Felucca, you will enjoy experiencing the traditional felucca, fully equipped with safety and additional comfort features. Sleeping under the stars and over the Nile in enclosed tent-like canvas that separates every two beds, on the deck.
Valley of the Kings
Today you arrive in Luxor. In the afternoon, you visit the ancient tombs of the Pharaohs in the Valley of the Kings. Crossing the Nile, you drive to the secluded valley where 63 Pharaohs were buried as part of their journey to the after-life. In the company of a local guide, you can explore the exquisitely decorated tombs of these rulers of long ago. It is here that the burial site of the boy-king Tutankhamun, discovered by British archaeologist Howard Carter in 1922, can be found. This visit to the Valley of the Kings brings to life much of what you saw in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. On your way back to the river, you can see the imposing funerary temple of Queen Hatshepsut, Egypt's first female ruler.
Nile Valley Hotel (AAA) - 1 night - Swimming Pool (B)
Karnak Temple / Hurghada
In the early morning, horse-drawn carriages drive you to the grandest of Egypt's historic temples – Karnak, which you explore with a local guide. Many architects and engineers contributed to its construction, a task that spanned the reign of successive Pharaohs over a period of 1400 years. The highlights of its many wonders are the great hypostyle hall, which contains 134 huge columns, countless colossal statues of deities, and the beautifully carved obelisk of Queen Hatshepsut. The sheer scale and massive bulk of these monuments testify to the wealth and the level of organisation of early Egyptian civilisation.
This afternoon you say farewell to the Nile and drive eastwards to Hurghada (4 hours). The green Nile valley is soon left behind as you head out into the barren Eastern Desert. Passing through rocky hills, the glittering waters of the Red Sea soon come into view and the rugged bulk of the Sinai Peninsula looms through the haze on the opposite shore. Hurghada is a vibrant beach resort. Although by no means a typical 'adventure destination', enjoying the superb snorkelling on offer here is a great way to round off your trip.
Sunny Days El Palicio Hotel (AAA) - 2 nights - Swimming Pool - (BD)
Red Sea snorkelling
This morning you take to the waves and head out to the lovely offshore reefs of the Red Sea. Here you can swim and snorkel to see the abundance of vividly coloured marine life that inhabits the warm waters. You take snorkels, masks, and fins with you to give you the best opportunity to see the marine life (although if you have a particular favourite we recommend you bring that from home – see notes also under 'packing list' below) and lunch is provided on the boat. Pods of frolicking dolphins are not an unusual sight and there are colourful fish in abundance – snorkelling is a real highlight of your trip. (BLD)
Cairo; free time
Very early this morning, you make the short drive to Hurghada's airport and take a flight back to Cairo. Once back in the capital, there should be time for further exploration on one of several optional trips that can be arranged. Later this evening your Group Leader will no doubt organise a traditional 'last supper'.

In the past three years, more than 2,200 riders have raised over $1,900,000 and ridden over 37,000 miles in support of Alpine Learning Group, The EPIC School, Garden Academy and REED Academy. We are looking forward to having you join us this year and help us reach our 2013 Fundraising Goal of $1,100,000. These funds will provide education, treatment, vocational training and employment opportunities for hundreds of children and adults with autism in northern NJ and beyond.
We've made it easy for you to GO THE DISTANCE FOR AUTISM.
- REGISTER to ride by clicking on one of the school links.
- CREATE your individual or team fundraising page. Experience shows that a participant's personal appeal is extremely effective in raising funds and that the most compelling fundraising pages include text, a personal story about why you are participating and photos and/or video.
- SET your goal above the minimum fundraising goal. The average participant at these kinds of events raises 2½ times the minimum. Many raise far more!
- UPLOAD your address book and EMAIL your fundraising page link to friends, family, co-workers and neighbors. Once you register, you will have access to the Go The Distance for Autism email templates or you can customize your messages to your contacts. Rest assured that your contacts' information will remain confidential and can only be accessed by you through your personal login.
- SPREAD THE WORD through social media networks by including a link directly to your fundraising page. With one click, you can update your status on Facebook and manage your tweets.You can also share the official Go The Distance for Autism Facebook page and Twitter account with interested friends by copying the links at the top of the page.
Ways to go even farther
Teams add to the friendly competition and give a sense of identity for those riding. Team Captains are able to use the site and send emails to invite and motivate team members as well as communicate with potential contributors for their own fundraising. Riding as a team leverages success and encourages healthy competition among teammates.
Companies love community events because they strengthen team dynamics and build corporate awareness at little or no cost at all to them. A company can brand the team with company jerseys, hats or water bottles and may even match donations raised by team members. Even employees who have no interest in riding can participate by "adopting" a rest stop and participating as volunteers to staff the event.
We need lots of helping hands to make this event a success so if you have a club or organization that you would be interested in volunteering, encourage them to register on-line at www.gtd4autism.org.

As more and more schools are bringing iPads to the classroom to help students improve learning through the use of advanced technology, leading iPad case maker iGearUnlimited.com is launching a program featuring the "perfect" iPad case for students, combining excellent protection with full customization.
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 30, 2013
Through a recent survey, iGearUnlimited.com asked customers for the features they look for in a "perfect" iPad case, and here are the top 6 answers:
While some cases on the market offer some of these features, finding a customized iPad case generally means giving up front protection, since almost all customizable cases only are available as a one-piece clip-on style for the back of the iPad. Although a magnet-attached smart cover can be added, many users are thinking twice about this combination because of the horror stories of users grabbing onto the cover while the iPad itself does a free fall.
The new Custom iPad Case from iGearUnlimited.com delivers on all points. The case is engineered to great precision and the iPad fits snugly. The lightweight hard shell case is made with polycarbonate, one of most durable materials around, protecting the iPad from daily use and abuse. The iPad is completely enclosed from all sides, with precise cutouts for all ports and buttons. The Custom iPad Case comes with two sets of magnets – one set to activate the iPad's auto wake/sleep feature, and another to keep the case closed when not in use. Using three strategically positioned hinges, the iPad can be positioned at five different viewing angles, from completely flat to vertically tilted for use in any situation.
Most importantly, the customization feature on iGear's iPad case allows schools to brand the iPad with a consistent image, and allows each student to personalize the front cover with their favorite image. Students can upload their own photo artwork to the ordering website, scale and crop the image, add text, and approve the design immediately online. The online design tool offers built-in Facebook integration and makes the process super-easy, even for novice users. The HTML5-based customization engine means it can be used on virtually all desktop and mobile devices, including the very iPad the case for which is being designed. The cases come in white for full color printing, or in black for laser engraving, and are available for both iPad 2/3/4 and iPad Mini.
"iGearUnlimited offers awesome, customized cases, for you or as a great gift!" says Siva Om, Contributing Editor of iPhoneLife Magazine. "All in all I'm very happy with my folio case from iGear and the ordering process couldn't have been easier."
The iPad Custom Case and iPad Mini Custom Case are available from iGearUnlimited.com. Single units retail for $89.99 (iPad 2/3/4) and $79.99 (iPad Mini) each. Students can order with coupon code "k1225off" and get a 25% discount, while schools should contact iGearUnlimited.com directly to obtain discounted pricing for larger quantities.
About iGearUnlimited.com
iGearUnlimited.com is powered by Sunrise Digital, an Inc. 5000 company established in 1988 and employs the most advanced equipment and technology, such as G7-certified HP Indigo and UV flatbed presses, and digital die-cutting, to create best-in-class products.

BOSTON — Orlando Magic players are sports fans, too.
At least nine players on the current roster and a large contingent of the team's traveling party attended tonight's Texas Rangers-Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park.
Sid Powell, the team's assistant director of basketball operations and a big baseball fan, arranged for about 15 people in the team's traveling group to sit in the bleachers in right-center. And when Glen Davis and J.J. Redick heard about it, they offered to pay — and did pay — for everybody's tickets.
Davis and Redick sat in the bleachers, at least for a while. Davis wore a David Ortiz Red Sox road jersey and a Red Sox cap.
Davis sent out this photo via Twitter and Instagram of Justin Harper and Ish Smith during the game.
Redick tweeted this picture from the bleachers.
Earl Clark, Chris Duhon, Jameer Nelson, Jason Richardson and Quentin Richardson sat on the third base side via seats procured by Nelson and were, for the most part, left alone by the fans. A few fans in their section yelled, "Go Celtics!" and "Where's Hedo?"
Clark, Nelson and both Richardsons and maybe Duhon autographed a baseball for a young fan.
Jason Richardson took this photo from his seat.
The Rangers blistered the Red Sox 18-3.
The Magic will play the Boston Celtics at TD Garden on Wednesday night. As the Magic attended the Red Sox game, the Celtics lost 118-110 to the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.

Be Careful What You "Declare War" On!
by sherry mann
"This tea party movement can be a healthy thing if they are making us justify every dollar of taxes we raise and every dollar of money we've spent, but when you get mad, sometimes you end up producing the exact opposite result of what you say you are for."
Bill Clinton on the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing.
Can that really be true? Let's look at a few examples:
War on Drugs
The "War on Drugs" was a term was first used by President Richard Nixon in 1969. Since then, the initiative has had countless laws, initiatives and policies have gone into effect which were supposed to discourage the production, distribution, and consumption of everything from pot to heroine. According to Wikipedia:
- In 1970, the Nixon administration implemented the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970.
- In 1973, the Drug Enforcement Agency was created to replace the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.
- In 1988 Ronald Reagan created the Office of National Drug Control Policy for central coordination of drug-related legislative, security, diplomatic, research and health policy throughout the government. The director of ONDCP is commonly known as the Drug Czar. The position was raised to cabinet-level status by Bill Clinton in 1993.

British invade Chicago on behalf of WTTW
Nancy and Steve Crown with Gordon Segal, all of Winnetka. | Lee Litas~For Sun-Times Media
WTTW-Channel 11
ADDRESS: 5400 N. St. Louis Ave., Chicago;
WEB: wttw.com and
Article Extras
Updated: July 1, 2012 11:36AM
The Event: Lest you think the British invasion is long since over, public broadcasting's Window to the World will have you know otherwise. On May 9 more than 1,000 Anglophiles converged on the Harris Theater in Chicago to celebrate the British Are Coming benefit in honor of the rich legacy of English writers, comedians, actors, composers and musicians who "have been and continue to be an essential part of the WTTW-11 and 98.7 WFMT cultural experience."
Led by Academy Award-winning actor Jeremy Irons, the standing ovation-garnering jubilee included performances by the Chicago Children's Choir, the Joffrey Ballet, the Fulcrum Point New Music Project, aerial acrobat Danielle Ricciardi and the Beatles-inspired four-man group Under the Streetlamp. Additionally, luminary of the London stage Simon Callow and lead singer Ray Davies of the legendary Kinks brought down the house belting out crowd faves like "Lola" and "All Day and All of the Night."
Cause Célèbre: "What's great about WTTW is that Chicago gets a chance to see the very best in arts and culture through wonderful programs from all over the world," said Michelle T. Boone, commissioner of cultural affairs and special events for the city of Chicago who attended on behalf of the mayor.
New Trier West graduate Mayor Rahm Emanuel noted that the evening was "A special opportunity to recognize the substantial and invaluable contributions that WTTW and 98.7 have made to the field of journalism in producing high-quality, informative news coverage and entertainment to our community."
The evening was sponsored in part by BMO Harris Bank, whose Vice Chairman Peter McNitt said, "Supporting the community is fundamental to everything we do. It's a big part of our organization and big part of our DNA."
Bottom Line: The event brought in nearly $1 million dollars in support of the quality programming on WTTW and WFMT.
