A HAVEn refresher, and HP Discover preview
Enterprise IT systems are like snowflakes—every system is unique. So it stands to reason that no two Big Data solution is the same. That's why, earlier this year, HP introduced HAVEn, a platform approach to combining collaborative hardware and software solutions to provide the best Big Data experience possible.
We asked Manoj Suvarna, Director of Product Management and Steve Tramack, the Director of Engineering for HP Converged Systems for a HAVEn refresher, and some practical examples of implementation.
Four key considerations for keeping up with Big Data overload
Despite the numerous offerings introduced this past year, Enterprise IT is still struggling with efforts to control Big Data. For a glimpse into how HP views Big Data, read what Manoj Suvarna, Director of Product Management for HP Converged Systems has to say.
How HP is addressing the Big Data challenge
Ask any number of IT managers what keeps them up at night, and you'll probably get a singular answer: Big Data. For a better understanding of how HP is working to allow a restful night's sleep, we asked Manoj Suvarna, Director of Product Management for HP Converged Systems what he is seeing in the marketplace and what HP is doing to address Big Data.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Massey Energy on Friday continued to disagree with findings of the federal government's investigation into the explosion that killed 29 workers at the company's Upper Big Branch Mine in Raleigh County.
Massey officials told families of the miners, and then media representatives, that they don't believe worn-out bits on a mining machine, broken water sprays or a buildup of explosive coal dust contributed to the Upper Big Branch disaster.
"We just look at the evidence a different way, I guess," Massey general counsel Shane Harvey said during a telephone media briefing Friday morning.
Massey held the media briefing at the same time it continued a closed-door meeting with families of the miners, and a week after the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration offered its most detailed discussion of the evidence so far gathered in the mine disaster probe.
MSHA officials and the independent investigators appointed by Gov. Joe Manchin believe the explosion involved an ignition of methane that was then made more powerful -- and spread through the mine -- by a buildup of highly explosive coal dust.
"The science supports the conclusion that coal dust was involved in this explosion," said Davitt McAteer, who is leading the independent probe.
Since the disaster, Massey has engaged in a heated public-relations effort to challenge the MSHA probe and to lay the groundwork for its legal defense in wrongful-death cases by the miners' families.
At the same time, MSHA has harshly criticized Massey's safety practices and federal prosecutors have said they are investigating potential criminal violations dating back more than four years at Upper Big Branch.
MSHA investigators had said they believed the "most likely" ignition source for the explosion was bit on the longwall mining machine's cutting tool, or shearer. Agency officials showed family members and the media photograph of one worn bit, emphasizing how without a fresh carbide tip the bit would be more likely to spark when it cut into mine rock.
Massey officials went directly after that argument, distributing a photo showing the rest of the longwall shearer's bits, and saying that only two of the unit's 44 bits showed the sort of wear in the photo MSHA released. The company also repeated its previous position that missing water spray nozzles did not contribute the explosion.

Networking in Style: Tips From the LuckyFABB Conference
We just got back from Lucky's Fashion and Beauty Blog (FABB) conference where we got to hang out with some of the world's most influential style bloggers. These ladies are known in the blogosphere for their impeccable taste, but we admire them just as much for their business savvy—they've built massive followings online, plus they have huge networks in real life, too.
We caught up with a few of our favorite bloggers and asked them to divulge their secrets for successful networking. (And, of course, we checked out their looks, too!)
Kendra of Closet Confections
Her Networking Tip: "Follow-up, follow-up, follow-up! Trading business cards at an event is just the first step—the real value comes in the relationships you build afterwards. I'd recommend contacting people every month or two to stay in touch: invite them to other events that you think they'd find interesting, share a relevant article or link, or even just say 'hi.' You'll be amazed how much your network can grow!"
Her Look: Cubicle Chic loves animal prints! (Remember our snakeskin post?) Props to Kendra for taking the trend all the way with a beautiful dress!
Visit Kendra at closetconfections.com.
Meghan of Voila Meghan
Her Networking Tip: "Remember the rule of reciprocity: if you do a favor for someone, they will return it one day. So be friendly and open with everyone you meet."
Her Look: Bangles! Bangles! Bangles! With a button-down, with a blazer, with an elegant sheath dress—piling on the bracelets always adds a pop of glam.
Visit Meghan at voila-meghan.blogspot.com.
Alexis of Dolly Rocker Girl
Her Networking Tip: "Just assume that other people are awesome, so feel free to gawk and compliment them!"
Her Look: Can we please have Alexis' purse for our work wardrobe? Matched with a peacoat and fall scarf, it would be an excellent autumn accessory.
Visit Alexis at dollyrockergirl.blogspot.com.
Adrienne of Me, My Hair & The City
Her Networking Tip: "Don't be afraid to say 'hello'—that's truly all you need for an ice breaker."
Her Look: We can't get enough of color. Adrienne's blue dress is the perfect length and neckline to wear to the office—just throw on a blazer!
Visit Adrienne at memyhairandthecity.com.
Brooke of Just B
Her Networking Tip: "Challenge yourself—travel to meet people and attend events, and tweet at strangers!"
Her Look: Brooke's pleats would be an excellent addition to our work wardrobes. Fun, feminine, and a little retro, this skirt would look great paired with some heels and a sharp button-down.
Visit Brooke at justbblog.com.
Grace of Stripes and Sequins
Her Networking Tip: "Tweet people after meeting them to keep in touch. It's a quick and easy way to make contact."
Her Look: Emerald green is the color this season, and Grace's gorgeous DVF dress is the perfect combination of color and style.
Visit Grace at stripesandsequins.com.
Julie of I Heart Heels
Her Networking Tip: "Don't be afraid to just walk up and introduce yourself to someone. To borrow a phrase from Eminem, 'you've only got one shot, one opportunity.'"
Her Look: Julie has a wonderfully simple look—and who doesn't like a little leopard? Add a belted black cardigan, and it would fit in perfectly for casual Friday at our office.
Visit Julie at iheartheels.com.
Lauren of Everyday to Runway
Her Networking Tip: "Always have business cards! I even have two sets—one set for professional networking with all of my business information, and another set with more basic personal information for casual situations. This way I'm ready to network at any moment!"
Her Look: Patterns are always a good way to add some flair, and we would love to wear Lauren's Missoni-inspired top with some wide legged trousers. Maybe the new collection at Target hasn't completely disappeared yet...?
Visit Lauren at everydaytorunway.com.
Rebecca of Thirty-Five Inch Inseam
Her Networking Tip: "Don't hesitate to share and don't hold back!"
Her Look: Those shoes! Rebecca makes us want to go shop at Anthropologie—right now. Take a cue from her style and don't be afraid to mix a pattern or two next time you're getting ready for the office.
Visit Rebecca at thirtyfiveinchinseam.com.
Meredith of Cubicle Chic
My Look and My Networking Tip: Especially in creative industries like blogging, wear something worth talking about! If you have beautiful earrings, fantastic shoes, or an interestingly patterned shirt, people will have a great excuse to talk to you. I wore this insanely bright dress (also on trend for candy brights), and it served as a great networking tool on several occasions.

Photo Flash: Pitbull Performs on This Morning's TODAY Show on NBC
NBC News pioneered the morning news program when it launched TODAY more than 55 years ago, with Dave Garroway as host. The live broadcast provides the latest in domestic and international news, weather reports and interviews with newsmakers from the worlds of politics, business, media, entertainment and sports. After more than 48 years of the standard two-hour format, the third hour was launched in October of 2000, followed by the fourth hour in September 2007, making Today the only four-hour hour national morning show broadcast. The program is unparalleled in its ratings dominance in the morning news arena, serving as America's overwhelming favorite for more than an unprecedented eleven consecutive years.
Since the program's premiere broadcast on January 14, 1952, Today's hallmark has been its ability to revise an entire edition to bring viewers breaking news as it happens. In that fashion, Today delivered immediate coverage of such events as Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath, the Tsunami that wreaked havoc in a dozen Asian nations, the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, the death of John F. Kennedy, Jr., the tragic high school shootings in Littleton, Colorado, the crash of TWA Flight 800, the death of Princess Diana, and the Oklahoma City bombing and trials.

Watch Sizes To Shrink Again? Brands Will Try, But LiliputianTrend Not Likely
Filed under: Timepieces / Watches
For at least the last five years, there has been a trend in watch sizes quickly going up in size to the limitation of what you can reasonably wear on your wrist. Many watches went further than that... such as with 55-60mm watches that look silly on most ANY wrists. Watches really did get to some silly sizes, and have settled with a good median size of about 44mm wide for a standard man's watch. Sizes range commonly now down to about 40mm wide and up to about 48mm wide - being the range for most men's watches. This is at least the case in the US and Europe. Asia and South America still see some smaller sizes (such as 36mm wide being typical for men's watches). The consumer love for what some now call "large" watches is not about to change.
A new [proposed] trend seems to be telling us that the watches should be small again. You hear whining about how 50 years ago a standard man's watch was about 35mm wide, sometimes smaller. That today's watches are "too big." Recently, there was a New York Times articles on the matter of small watches. The writer makes some good points, but bless him, he does not keep as serious an eye on the watch industry as I do. He points out that the shrinking back of the economy has led to a psychological shrinking back of many things, especially luxury items. While men's watches use to be smaller, it was part of the game back then when watch companies were trying to make smaller and thinner watch movements. It was a matter of who has the smallest and thinnest watches, that could still function properly. Eventually that game got silly, and by the 1960s watch sizes started going up again. Why? Cause little watches looks dainty and feminine on men. Just because you have a large watch does not mean you are pompous or showy, just that you enjoy a nice looking instrument - which is what a watch is, before it is anything else. Surf over to the NYT articles and you'll see there an image of Frank Sinatra from "back in the day" wearing what looks to be a woman's bracelet. It is not becoming of a modern man.
You might hear voices from various directions about how the trend in watch is going back down. It is true that the surging of sizes has stopped, but it has settled at a place now that is about 4-6mm larger on average that 10 years ago, at least for luxury watches. Of course it depends on the watch. Fashionistas need to fuel their trade by "developing" new trends, while hurting watch companies need to cut costs by reducing the costs involves in making the larger more expensive watches. When you cut your work force in half, it diminishes the level of complexity you find in watches. My belief is that fashion voices and watch companies are trying to push this trend because change creates new needs, that create sales, and because smaller more simple watches are just plain cheaper to make - which watch companies need these days to feel comfy moving forward. Feel no shame in liking a "big" watch, and don't think there is some magical move back down to 35mm timepieces. I'll never consent to it at least. By the way, the pictured watch is the Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse that in some styles comes in as small as 31mm wide models.

WILSON, N.C. -- North Carolina's Southern Baptist pastors are reacting to the election of their new leader.
Fred Luter is the first black president of the Southern Baptist Convention. Pastors said they hope Luter helps to further bring the denomination together.
Many know him as a man of great integrity, and they said they admire his accomplishments.
"When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans in 2007, it scattered his congregation all across the United States and so around the convention we laughingly joke that Pastor Luter is a megachurch pastor who had to do it twice," said Pastor Gregg Car of Raleigh Road Baptist Church in Wilson.
The Southern Baptists were formed before the Civil War in a split with Northern Baptists over slavery.

Rex Grossman Passes His Test Against Cowboys
How did Rex Grossman do starting at quarterback for the Washington Redskins? Surprisingly well. Shockingly well. Astoundingly well. Not that he was perfect.
When head coach Mike Shanahan promoted Grossman to starter, Redskins Hog Heaven asked what we must see from Grossman to buy into the idea. Here's the list along with Grossman's performance.
Complete 70 percent of his passes. Grossman completed 25 of 43 pass attempts, for a completion ratio of 58 percent. He needed seven more completion to hit the mark. Seventy percent completion ratio is a high standard, perhaps impossibly so. It is premised on the idea that Grossman must perform 20 percent better than Donovan McNabb to keep McNabb's job. McNabb completed 58 percent of his passes this season.. It's not fair, but Grossman comes with a lot of baggage. Grade - C
Pass for 911 yards over the remaining games. Grossman threw for 322 yards and is on a pace to meet this standard. One of the TV announcers said it was Grossman's first 300-yard day in his career. I'll have to check that. But we award extra credit to Grossman on the assumption that it's true. Grade - A
Throw at least four touchdowns with no more than three interceptions. Talk about a sign of the low standard set by McNabb and the low expectation for Grossman. Four touchdowns was the combined benchmark for all of the remaining games. Grossman threw four touchdowns today to power Washington's biggest offensive output of the season. After this, we'll reset the bar to two touchdowns per game. Grade - A+
Beat the Cowboys. You can't pin the loss to the Cowboys solely on Grossman. He kept the Redskins in the game, especially the third-quarter comeback from a 27-7 deficit. Two dropped passes by Santana Moss on critical plays would have helped immensely. But I digress. Grossman's play kept the Redskins in the game. He would have become legendary in these parts if Washington won. Grade - B+
Overall Grade - B+
I didn't think Grossman had it in him. It remains to be seen if he can sustain it over the next two games. There's no reason to think he cannot after what we saw today.
No one is happier for Rex than Kyle Shanahan.

Simple Tips to Make Spring Cleaning Easier: Ways to jump start spring cleaning – It's still cold outside, spring isn't even starting to wake but you should get a jump start of any spring cleaning you can to make the jobs easier when Spring does come flying in. When the sun finally starts filling our homes again and the flowers wake up the last thing we want to do is spend days and days cleaning but we do every year none the less. For many of us summer and spring doesn't last that long so we should make the best of it.
Simple Tips to Make Spring Cleaning Easier: Jump start spring cleaning tips
It's cold and miserable and I am sure hiding behind a blanket with a hot chocolate and a book is the most appealing thing right now but if you use this time to get a head on tasks you will really appreciate it later on. Here are some of my tips to do just that.
Like I start any tasks I find it best to first sit down with a mug of coffee or tea (good so far) a pen, paper and your partner. Sit down and list all the tasks you do every spring cleaning, make a mega list. This will come useful come spring too so try and think of every little thing from changing air-con filters to brushing dust out of the garage to cutting back branches on that bloody tree! I advise you type this list up so you can keep it so of course you could start with the laptop straight away but there is something I like about writing on paper (yes, yes I know it's wasteful!).
Once you have the definitive spring cleaning list you can start organising things. I'm sure well over half of the tasks are done inside the home. Inside you have heating and are protected from the outside so winter, spring, summer, autumn these tasks can be carried out any time. Bring these tasks forward and do them all within the next 4 weeks. Break them down to one or two an evening for a few weeks and you will be done in no time at all.
Tasks that are outdoors may be silly to start but things like a quick sweep of the garage or a very quick grass cut (if you snow has melted) could help you save time when the weather is in shape to actually get these things done.
My logic is as simple as do what you can early but hey life is as simple as you make it.
Throughout the year I also think you should look at the tasks that could be done at different times and maybe done 3-4 times as year as opposed to once. Even if doing it 4 times a year may take longer overall each time will be shorter so it may feel shorter, like cutting back the trees, dusting the garage, cleaning the gutters and other tasks such as polishing brass and pulling out the chest freezer to clean behind it.

Good luck getting ahead this year and I hope you recognise the time you save yourself this spring.

Prepare to Pay More for Your Beer in 2008
tagged beer, craft beer, denver, hop and maly prices increases, My post and prices
Bad news, Denver. You love your beer, especially crafts and micros (Denver was named Drunkest City in the U.S., after all) - and the price of your favorite beer is probably going up in 2008.
But before you blame the breweries for getting greedy, you should know there are two factors at play:
- HOPS: There have been two consecutive bad Hop harvests. You can blame Mother Nature, global warning or both for this one. But for whatever the reason is, there are fewer hops with to brew beer. With scarcity, comes higher cost. Some Hop varieties are more scarce than others, but if you are a fan of those "hoppy" IPAs you'll be paying more for that bitter goodness.
- MALT: A double whammy is driving up the price of Malted Barley. Like hops, the harvests have not reached typical demand or expectations due to environmental reasons. But farmers have decided that Corn is cheaper to grow and garnering higher prices due to increasing demand for Ethanol. Again, scarcity is driving the price up.
The increase in Hop and Malt prices will affect Craft Brewers more than the big macro-domestic brewers for a couple reasons:
- In general the Micro/Craft brewers use more of these ingredients in their beer than regular domestic or "Light" beer.
- They are also smaller companies and do not have the buying power that the larger brewers do.
For more information on this subject:
The Seattle PI also ran a good story on this subject
Disclosure: My day job is working for a craft brewer not mentioned in this entry.

Croissants' wine dinner showcases delicious, local dishes
Posted 5/13/2011 11:34:00 AM
A wine dinner at
Croissants Bistro and Bakery
, part of
Myrtle Beach's
second annual
Coastal Uncorked Food and Wine Festival
, kept about 60 diners exclaiming over some delicious surprises.
Owner Heidi Vukov and Chef Brad Daniels, with
Schug Caneros Estate Winery
of Sonoma, Calif., served a six-course meal, starting with appetizers that included one of the best shrimp dishes I've ever tasted -- peachwood smoked shrimp. The shrimp were big, beautiful and butterflied, with a peach sweetness and a smoky taste. Also served were a smoked salmon cloud, a light, fluffy bite of salmon mousses with pumpernickel, and smoked trout crostini topped with a fresh cherry tomato. Appetizers were served with Schug's 2007 Rouge De Noirs Brut.
The salad was served with grilled artichoke hearts on the side and included buttermilk fresh cheese, which Daniels said he made from a
Lee Brothers
recipe. (Matt and Ted Lee also are participating in Coastal Uncorked in an appearance with
Paula Deen
Saturday night and at a brunch at Croissants on Sunday.) The very fresh spring lettuces came from
Thompson Farm
in Conway, as did the honey that was mixed with lemon for the dressing. It was served with Schug's 2009 Sauvignon Blanc, which was excellent.
Chilled English pea soup might not sound so appetizing, but all the people sitting around me practically licked their soup bowl clean. Served cold, it was refreshing and delicious. A small round of parmesan panna cotta, a cheesy custard, was in the center.
Next was a braised veal breast ravioli, served on a bed of sautéed spinach and topped with a thin slice of tuna. This was a combination that worked so well; the ravioli was delicious and the tuna very tasty. It was served with a 2008 Carneros Pinot Noir.
A sliced tenderloin filet of beef was served with delicious vegetables -- baby carrots, pearl onions and rapinni greens, which had a little sharpness – and topped with a horseradish froth. This course was served with the 2006 Heritage Reserve Merlot.
Dessert was warm sautéed peaches and mascarpone mousse, served in a crispy caramel shell. With a few blackberries on the side, it was as beautiful as it was tasty. It was served with a 2008 Late Harvest Reisling, a sweet wine that was a perfect match.
Croissants is a
Fresh on the Menu
restaurant, an
S.C. Department of Agriculture
program that recognizes the restaurant's support of local products and produce.
Vukov has been the driving force behind Coastal Uncorked. She has said she hopes the festival brings recognition of the Grand Strand as a culinary destination. In February, she was named 2010 S.C. Restaurateur of the Year by the S.C. Hospitality Association. She was nominated for the award by the Myrtle Beach Area Hospitality Association.
Vukov opened Croissants in March 1995 in a smaller location, where the restaurant quickly gained a following as a great spot for lunch and for delectable baked goods. She moved into her current home, at 38th Avenue North and Robert M. Grissom Parkway, in March 2007.

The image gallery does showing the X lens, I emailed them via ebay to confirm about the lens. I will jump on this if this is a X-lens. Perfect birthday gift.
Edit: they just changed the picture in the description of the listing. And also say its a GF3X in the description listing. I really hope it will come with X lens. Last edited by TLCB; 02-04-2013 at 10:24 AM.. |
IMO, GF5X for 415.99 is a way better deal. Improved sensor.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Panasonic...3a7 |
I own a GF3 with the 14-42mm X lens. I bought a used (like new) G3 about 4 months ago, and haven't touched my GF3 since. I use to roll my eyes at all the comments regarding the need for a viewfinder, but always pick up my G3 rather than my GF3 now. I even take it out of full auto on occasion!!
Still - a great price for the package, and a very cost-efficient way to enter the world of interchangeable lens cameras, with something that is quite small. |
No, it still says: Catalog #: PNDMCGF3KR MFG Part #: DMC-GF3XR. Those are two different cameras. Also, look under the specifications. They are listing the same camera but with different lenses. Big difference in price. GF3XR>>> GF3KR |
Can anyone confirm the actual camera and lens that comes in this kit yet?
Edit: Looking at the catalog number it only shows as a model/catalog/item number for BuyDig. I feel like they are just using that as a number for BuyDig catalog and not the actual model number from Panasonic. Take this with a grain of salt no actual confirmation. Last edited by cire1184; 02-04-2013 at 12:02 PM.. |
I had this combo and did not like it and sold it on craigslist. The camera sensor is outdated and very noisy. The powerzoom lens is very convenient, but the image quality is not good. Read reviews for several reports of issues with the lens at telephoto settings.
This is a good price, but note that the camera is an older model and is really surpassed by the Panasonic GX1 or the Olympus E-PM2/E-PL5. The GX1 itself is about to be replaced too, to give you some perspective.
What makes this an interesting deal is the X lens, which collapses to a very small size and sells for about this price on its own. Unless you're specifically interested in that lens and using it on other cameras in the future, I would probably avoid the GF3 at this point. |
Good point. Thanks |
IMHO, as someone who has owned both... its not that big a difference between the 3 and the 5. if you are going to pony up an extra $100+ for the 5 vs the 3 for the added low light performance I would rather just go with a NEX-5N |

In June 2013, Professor Caren Sax and 11 graduate students from San Diego State University's Rehabilitation Counseling Program (RCP) were guests at the Living Lab in Oosterbeek and the HAN department of Educational Theory in the Netherlands. Launched in January 2012, the Living Lab is a work-based learning centre that provides life coaching for young people with an autism spectrum disorder. The aim is to strengthen links between research, education and practice.
Gov. Togiola Tulafono congratulated the 51 graduates saying the program is a result of the excellent partnership between the government and San Diego State University.
The public program of rehabilitation is at a significant crossroads. The need for focused leadership is critical and challenging for all.

Q&A with Bay Area Artist Ala Ebtekar
Bay Area artist Ala Ebtekar is having a moment. His work is currently on view in two regional shows: part one (What Time Is It There?) of the three-part "Proximities" series at the Asian Art Museum and "Migrating Identities" at YBCA, a group show in which he's the only local artist. He's been garnering attention on both the national and international art scenes, and his work has most recently been added to the collections of an SFMOMA board member and The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Talk about street cred.

Such services will act as middlemen standing between the user and what is found, very much in the same way as search engines.
The only difference – the one anyone who cares about search engine optimization ought to be concerned with – is that the metric for judging what gets found will no longer be which strings of keywords users enter to find the information they're looking for, but rather a combination of what users ask their personal assistant apps and the techniques of the technologies themselves. In the next several years, every online entity from a part-time blogger to an interactive agency will be acquainting themselves with this new method of finding information, and how to plan their marketing strategies accordingly.
Since Siri is the only personal assistant app currently on the market as well as existing in a far from perfect form, little can be projected regarding the future of online marketing once such technology really takes off. But considering what we do know, the following is sure to reflect the final reality:
SEO and PageRank will matter less: Search engine optimization and the valuing of PageRank revolves around the understanding that human hands are doing the keyword typing and human eyes are scrolling down a list of results. Remove the human and these aspects of online business will lose some of their importance. Personal assistant apps such as Siri will use multiple online sources to find the information the user is seeking, and will only factor website popularity a little bit when presenting options.
PPC will lose virtually all profitability: This is just about the case anyway with the exception of certain rare circumstances, but prepare for pay-per-click campaigns to hardly make you any money. The more that people opt to surf the web hands-free, the less likely they are to ever actually click on anything. Thus, anything that depends on such clicks ought to be avoided at all costs.
Ratings and reviews will gain traction: Instead of relying on search engines which may be "infected" with SEO, personal assistant apps such as Siri will incorporate available ratings and reviews when users ask for certain businesses to be found. Instead of serving as merely an aspect of search-related marketing, ratings and reviews are set to become critical articles of whatever future e-marketing science that comes to replace SEO as we know it today.
However, there's an argument to be made that SEO itself won't change as drastically as some predict due to the advent of personal assistant apps. This is based on the fact that Google may very well simply insert their search engine into whatever personal assistant app they develop for Android. Since Android is the operating system far more than half of the world's smartphones possess, it could very well be the case that the transition between SEO and personal assistant app search optimization is a mostly seamless one.
Either way, the bottom line for online marketers is this: the search engine currently represents the totality of all that stands between web-connected computer users and the information they want. In turn, SEO is pretty much the entirety of all e-marketing that focuses on ensuring that you are found online. When the search engine ceases to be the only tool for finding what we need, expect to re-write your playbook.

Just like you said. It's still far from perfect. My guess is 5-10 years. Thanks!
I think there will be some small changes on search engine. But google always lead the world search maybe.

New products, procedures and technologies are appearing with more frequency. In an effort to keep journalists apprised of the most current information, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons created the Technology Briefs section.
Check back for new additions to the page; new briefs will be posted when enough information is collected on each topic.
Many of the topics discussed in this section are procedures or technologies that are relatively new or currently under clinical investigation and may require further scientific study to determine efficacy and success rate.
These topics are presented for research and education purposes only. The ASPS does not endorse the procedures or technologies in this section.
Physicians using such procedures or technologies are advised to make individual treatment decisions according to their own medical judgment in light of each patient's individual circumstance.
Further, any reporting or publication of the information presented must be done responsibly with full disclosure of its unproven nature.
Technology Briefs
AccuSculpt Laser Lipolysis System
- Receiving regulatory clearance from the FDA, the AccuSculpt™ Laser Lipolysis System, according to the manufacturer, is the first Pulsed Nd:YAG Laser to deliver a 1444 nanometer(nm) wavelength. The special wavelength is said to allow for improved accuracy and minimally-invasive deep tissue heating.
GFX Nerve Ablation System (Glabellar Furrow Relaxation)
- Currently, neurotoxin injections, like Botox, are the main treatment option for erasing frown lines on the forehead. For those who might be concerned about injections, those worries may be alleviated as patients may soon have an alternative therapy for treating frown lines.
Focused Ultrasound Body Contouring
- Non-invasive body sculpting is shaping up to be the next frontier in body contouring.
Lipodissolve and Mesotherapy (Injection Lipolysis)
- Injection lipolysis involves injecting a mixture of chemicals, generally consisting of a combination of phosphatidylcholine and sodium deoxycholate, into the skin and/or subcutaneous fatty tissue in order to dissolve fat cells.
Laser-assisted liposuction (SmartLipo)
- Laser-assisted liposuction, introduced in 2007, is one of the newest liposuction techniques. SmartLipo is the first laser to be approved by the FDA to be used for fat dissolution.

Voter turnout at 65.7 percent in Missouri
Missouri voters went to the poll in big numbers, but not as big as in 2008.
Figures released by Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan's office on Wednesday showed that 2.7 million people, or 65.7 percent of registered voters, turned out on Tuesday. Both the raw number and the percentage were down from 2008, when a record 2.9 million voters, or 69.4 percent, went to the polls.
Turnout fell short of the 72 percent that had been projected by Carnahan, a compilation of predictions from the 116 local election authorities around the state. Missouri has 4.2 million registered voters.
Osage County with 72.4 percent turnout and St. Charles County with 72.3 percent led the state.

PHOENIX (AP) - The military will conduct air interceptions of mock hostile aircraft over Phoenix this week.
The Western Air Defense Sector exercises are set for Thursday between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. They'll involve F-16 fighters, military versions of the Lear Jet 35A business jet and Civil Air Patrol planes. People in the Phoenix area may see the aircraft.
The air defense exercise code-named "Felix Hawk" is designed to test the military's intercept and identification procedures for dealing with a variety of potentially hostile aircraft.
Similar exercises have been conducted since the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.
The exercise will be rescheduled if there is bad weather.

In The Midst Of A Spending CrisisFebruary 11, 2013The cheering and applause you didn't hear from Washington on Tuesday was over the Congressional Budget Office's report that President Barack Obama may be about to pass a milestone — his first year i...... Aaron1"Clearly, it needs to be based on an admission that the United States doesn't just have a spending problem - but instead is in the midst of a genuine crisis." A simple fact that both Barry Husein Obama and Andrew Cuomo have failed to admit while whistling past a dying Nation's torn body all for political gain on their part. This has to end shortly as this great Nation is dragged to ruin by these thugs. They look in the mirror and see glory of ego when it should be shame. 7 Agrees | 12 Disagrees | Report Abuse » 50s4everBut..but...we don't have a spending problem. It's those hateful Republicans holding our spending hostage! That's their story and they are sticking to it. 5 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » PleaseWakeUpSo here we go again, blaming the president! Where is the freaking budget from congress? 6 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » ducksterbefore yall start stamping your feet again think this through. The bad news we are approx 16 trillion in the whole. The good news is that our economy (still the largest and still the world's default currency) turns over about 15 trillion in dollars PER YEAR. People.. put that in context before you go out and buy more ammo and a years supply of RE's..hmm 3 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Seadog"Where is the freaking budget from congress"? I'm glad you asked - do some checking. The House has submitted at least three budgets to the Senate THAT WERE NEVER ALLOWED ON THE SENATE FLOOR by Uncle Harry Reid. It is also the president's responsibility to SUBMITT a budget, which he hasn't yet THIS YEAR. The last two he submitted, which Uncle Harry ALLOWED on the floor, couldn't even get any votes from the Democrats. So yes, I am blaming the president. He should do his job and submit a realistic budget or tell his lacky Uncle Harry to allow debate on the House budget If he is incapable of doing that, he should resign. 2 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Seadog"House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi claimed Sunday it is a "false argument" to say the federal government has a spending problem, in the latest shot across the bow to Republicans who couldn't disagree more. Pelosi, in an interview with "Fox News Sunday," locked arms with President Obama in calling for Washington to avert a looming round of budget cuts -- by replacing them with a blend of cuts and tax hikes". 3 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » ducksterThe crisis is not what it appears to be. As a matter of fact ..letting the sequestration happen would force the reps. to accept defense cuts while the dems. would have to accept entitlement cuts (in this case simply not allowing for increased future growth in programs like medicare or say, WIC. I say let the sequestration happen since both the right and the left can not agree on anything. It hurts me to say this but SEADOG: in this particular case you are correct! 2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » GioAllie10:17am post---you'de think that when "quotes" are used, the statement quoted is accurate. Not always. Pelosi did not say "it is a false argument"--she at the end of the 5:06 long fox interview, stated "So it is almost a false argument to say we have a spending problem"--predicated by her other 100 or so word statement , setting the stage for the comment "misquoted" in the 10:17am post---one can agree or disagree with her, bur at least view the entire context-as I have. 1 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » FedUpL8lyI just find it amazing how some people will give Obama a pass on everything. Yes, Harry Reid is worse than worthless. Here's a supposed public servant who is responsible for the Senate not doing a budget in four years. A violation of his oath of office if I've ever seen one. And don't forget, when Nancy Pelosi was Speaker of the House, SHE was responsible for NOT doing a budget also. Why? One very good,simple reason for not doing them! You have to put on paper how to justify spending. THINK! Barack Obama's budget proposals couldn't get a SINGLE Democratic vote in Congress. NOT ONE of those Dems was willing to put on paper that he/she approved the worthiness of Obama's spending. They've expanded eligibility to Medicare (Soc.Sec.Disability), Medicaid (multiple times above poverty level and Soc.Sec. Disability (used to be 51 workers for every person on disability,now it's 13-14 workers for everyone on disability). Program fraud is worse than ever and nothing meaningful is being done! 3 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » FedUpL8lyCongrats Gio, you can accurately quote double-talk. "So it is almost a false argument to say we have a spending problem" is consistent garbage coming from the same mouth that urged people to vote for Obamacare so that they could find out what is in it long after it's passed. Interpretation: Don't bother to read it because most of the "fine print" hasn't been written yet. And then goes on to exclude herself and her Dem. colleagues from Obamacare. Garbage then, garbage now! 2 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » formerlyphilremember the old lay's potato chips commercials? crunch all you want, we'll make more. in DC it's "spend all you want, we'll print more." 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1If Pelosi said it then it is a lie and/or against the American people. 5 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » SeadogWell Gioalliegravelpitt - it seems your hero disagrees with both you and Queen Nancy: "White House Press Secretary Jay Carney reaffirmed today that President Obama believes the country has a spending problem, contradicting what Nancy Pelosi said on Fox News Sunday, in which she said it was a "false argument" to say the federal government has a spending problem". "Of course the President believes the nation has a spending problem," Carney said". I can't wait for this reply! 1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » justsomegirlI think the biggest problem is that most of our politicians put party and self before country and are so darn busy working for themselves and their party and backstabbing and obstructing the other side that they're willing to send us all to heck in a handbasket. 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » HowardHere we ago again. Political(mostly Republican) spin. Most major markers are up and we have been recovering in the last 4 years. No, I will not repeat again all the facts and figures. The next 4 years will get even better so get over it. You want to change it? Get your people elected to office - use the time you spend here repeating the same old spin, spin, spin over and over to find and run someone decent from your party. 2 Agrees | 6 Disagrees | Report Abuse » SeadogYes Howard, that unemployment number has dropped like a stone over the last four years. Can't wait to see what it will be in the next four years - especially after Obamacare kicks in. 3 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"Unemployment Rate: 7.9% in Jan 2013 " "as of September 2012, the unemployment rate in the United States was 7.8%" Yes it has gone down drastically. Obama is doing such a great job in bring it down it seems. 3 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1Unemployment rate Jan 2005 "the unemployment rate, 5.2 percent" 3 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » 50s4everAnyone remember Pelosi and Reid's attitude when Obama first was president..maybe President elect? They pretty much stated, they ran the country, Presidents came and went. 4 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » DavidVAOur tax collection rate at the Federal level is at near record lows (<16% overall), and our economy stinks. On the other hand, when collections were over 20%, such as the boom years between 1946 and 1973, No one seemed to whine. If you rreally want to close the tax-spending gap, start by eliminating the special rates for capitalists. They get 15% rates on unearned income: capital gains, dividends and carried interest. And that's true no matter how much they make. One hedge fund manager, John Paulson, paid 15% on his 2007 earnings of $3.7 Billion, then beat that by making $5 Billion in 2010 ... and still only paid 15%. And yes, that was his personal take home pay. So fix that first, then we can look at spending. 1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » DavidVAI noticed a comment on the unemployment rate. More to the point is the employment rate, or the percentage of working age adults in the workforce. That number has been in decline for a while, and dipped just after the 2001 recession began, never recoverred, then dipped again after the 2008 recession. It hasn't recovered from that dip either. Unemployment is based on people interested in being employed. People who quit looking for work aren't counted. The employment rate is more honest, though many counted as working are employed in part time or lower paying jobs than they qualify to hold. In fact, that problem has been growing for nearly 40 years ... but that's for another post. Taxes have nothing to do with it, though. It all has to do with automation and off-shoring. Feel free to be mad about that. 2 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » justsomegirlOr take a look at the taxes paid by some of the huge corporations and figure out their effective tax rates. I did that one year for Verizon and was pretty ticked off to realize exactly how little they were paying in taxes while not being held to state rules or contracts. (PA's Public Utility Commission has now waived a customer service rule for them in 2012 and allowed them to default on an agreement to deploy broadband to a certain percentage of PA homes and businesses in 2003--but it let them keep the $2.1 billion in money and tax breaks.) At the same time they're cutting jobs, wages, and benefits for their employees. If you're going to accept government contracts, then you are not only beholden to your shareholders, and I don't think corporations making billions of dollars should have an effective tax rate in the low to mid-teens when many individuals and small businesses don't. 4 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » FedUpL8lyDavidVA, what's with the blanket knock on capitalists? You sound like one of the brain-washed Obama-following socialists. Paulson is a hedge fund manager playing by the rules evolving from Clinton's policies. I hold more contempt for Warren Buffett, one who claims the rich should pay more and endorsing the obama rhetoric while he's getting backroom sweetheart deals from Obama while he's sheltering almost all of his money from being subject to any taxes. Also, I think what you're referring to is the Labor Workforce Participation Rate. Under Obama it's sunk to its lowest level since Jimmy Carter. It would be even worse if the Fed didn't keep interest rates at record low levels. 1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » FedUpL8lyI would also like to add that your implying post-WWII prosperity was directly correlated to tax rates is simplistic and misleading. Even aside from the fact that today's state tax rates, more onerous property tax rates and sales taxes actually result in higher tax collection percentages than 46-73. 2 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"WASHINGTON (AP) — Reviving his populist re-election message, President Barack Obama will press a politically-divided Congress to approve more tax increases and fewer spending cuts during a State of the Union " 4 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Showing 25 of 43 comments Show More Comments

Saturday April 27, 2013, 6 p.m., Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice ________________________________________
James Waring will be honored at Alumni Honors by the Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies. Jim has more than 25 years of experience in law, real estate investment, land use, economic development and business finance. However, it is his dedication to community development that distinguishes him as an alumnus from the School of Peace Studies. Throughout his career, he has been deeply committed to serving the community, and has dedicated his time and expertise to various civic, environmental and charitable causes.
Professional accomplishments
In 2007, Jim co-founded and became Chairman of CleanTech San Diego, a non-profit trade organization group focused on accelerating San Diego's position as a world leader in the clean technology economy. The organization aims to foster the growth of San Diego companies in developing green and sustainable technologies and products. He also serves on the San Diego Mayor's Housing Commission and was recently appointed to the California Transportation Commission by Governor Jerry Brown. Previously, Jim served on the California Center for Sustainable Energy Board of Directors, Francis Parker Board of Trustees, River Network Board of Directors, San Diego Natural History Museum Board of Directors, and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography Director's Cabinet. Until recently, he also served on the inaugural advisory board for the School of Peace Studies.
Jim has had a positive impact on multiple organizations through his service. His entrepreneurial spirit and dedication is what led him to create CleanTech, which is beginning to make a positive impact on the city of San Diego. He sees CleanTech as a way of creating companies and jobs that support sustainable energy and resources – something that will be increasingly necessary as San Diego's resources decrease and the population increases. By creating CleanTech, Jim is helping San Diego become a world leader in green business development and technology adoption.
Jim is dedicated to living by ethical principles and values as demonstrated by his commitment to public service. He has repeatedly expressed admiration and inspiration for people who sacrifice their own comfort and economic gain to help the less fortunate.
"Always be truthful in what you say.
Wherever possible,
recognize the achievements of the team effort involved in any accomplishment."
