I wear my glasses everyday. They were a little tight at first but that may be the results of wearing a scrub cap when I have them on. They were easy to order and arrived within a week!

To configure KAlarm's operation to suit your system and your personal preferences, select → . This displays the Configuration dialog.
The General section lets you control KAlarm's overall behavior:
Start at login: KAlarm will be started automatically at KDE session login, ensuring that KAlarm runs at all times unless you manually quit.
This option should always be checked unless you intend to discontinue use of KAlarm.
This option is automatically reselected whenever KAlarm is run. So if you have unchecked this option and want to continue to prevent KAlarm from running at login, you need to uncheck this option again each time you run KAlarm.
Warn before quitting: When alarms are disabled while KAlarm is not running, selecting this option prompts you for confirmation if you attempt to terminate KAlarm using the system tray icon's option. This prevents accidental disabling of alarms. For safety, this option is automatically re-enabled by default whenever you change run mode.
Confirm alarm deletions: Specify whether you should be prompted for confirmation each time you delete an alarm.
Default defer time interval: Enter the default time interval, in hours and minutes, to show initially when the Defer Alarm dialog is displayed. Note that if an alarm has been deferred previously, the interval shown initially in the Defer Alarm dialog will be equal to the deferral interval used the last time that alarm was deferred.
Terminal for Command Alarms: Here, you can select which type of terminal window should be used for command alarms which are executed in a terminal window. Some of the most common terminal window applications are preconfigured, e.g. xterm, Konsole, although only those which are installed on your system will be shown here. You can view the actual command options used for each application by displaying the context help for its radio button.
If you want to use another application, or want to use one of those listed but with different command options, select Other and enter the command to invoke the terminal window. By default, the alarm's command string will be appended to what you specify. Alternatively, you may specify where the alarm's command string should be inserted, by use of the following codes:
- %c
The alarm's command string will be substituted.
- %w
The alarm's command string will be substituted, with a
appended.- %C
A temporary command file containing the alarm's command string will be created, and the command to execute the file will be substituted.
A temporary command file containing the alarm's command string will be created with a
appended, and the command to execute the file will be substituted.
When the command alarm is triggered, its command string will be quoted before being inserted into the terminal window command.

But how far into the future?? iPhone 7?? 8???
NFC is fine and dandy, but without the infrastructure behind it (visa? mastercard? some major bank?) you have nothing. the trouble is getting someone to build the readers, the network, the payment system behind it, and get it widely adopted. NFC is a chip, nothing more.
For your information it will be called the iPhone 9, not the iPhone 8. If it's not I will pour boiling acid down my throat and shoot up a school.
Wow lol I heard of over doing it but you sir take it to a whole new level.
Thank u
Going on topic before I get in trouble: I certainly didn't expect this feature in iOS 6. I wonder if it will be a huge source of income for Apple or if it will be like Newsstand.
NFC coming in iPhone 5!
I think you sir (Zokenei) owe us some acid and a video.

Guest blogger Shannon G.
You've paid your debt to Uncle Sam all year, so if you get a little cash back as a tax refund, be sure to make the most of it. Thinking about planning your next big trip? Consider Finland as an option.
Finland is a Nordic country situated in the Fennoscandian region of Northern Europe. It is bordered by Sweden to the west, Norway to the north, Russia to the east, and Estonia to the south across the Gulf of Finland. The Finnish landscape is covered with thick pine forests, rolling hills and an almost endless amount of lakes. Finland contains 37 national parks, which certainly makes it a desirable travel destination.
Commercial cruises between major coastal and port cities in the Baltic region play a significant role in the local tourism industry. Finland is regarded as the home of Saint Nicholas or Santa Claus, living in the northern region. Above the Arctic Circle, in midwinter, there is a polar night, a period when the sun does not rise for days or weeks, or even months, and correspondingly, midnight sun in the summer, with no sunset even at midnight. The Aurora Borealis is seen regularly in the fall, winter and spring here.
Finns have a self-conception and reputation for being reserved and sparing with words. Small talk is not valued. Accordingly, words and verbal promises are likely to be taken seriously. The rapid spread of mobile phones, computers, and other communications technology is creating a society that is highly interconnected, regardless of the nature of interpersonal interactions and demeanor. Finland has the highest per capita use of the Internet and cellular phones in the world.
Children´s culture in Finland is one of the most developed in the world. One of the three existing schools of architecture for children in the world is ARKKI in Helsinki. There are several children's festivals focused in literature, movies, theatre and so on. Basic education in arts is very well developed and accessible all over the country, and it has proven its effectiveness in producing surprising number of world class musicians, singers and conductors compared to the small size of the nation.
Finland is also known as the land of weird championships. Most known of them are the wife carrying and swamp football but there's also rubber boot throwing championships, mobile phone throwing championships, snow swimming championships and… stick horse racing championships.
So you've finished your taxes and unfortunately a trip to Finland isn't in the works. Not to worry; the library has many interesting books, DVDs, and CDs about this northern country. And coincidentally, this month will be playing host to the Finnish Folk band Vellamo. In Finnish mythology, Vellamo is the goddess of the sea. Pia Leinonen, originally from the arctic region of Lapland, is Vellamo's lead singer. Her exquisite voice combines her love and vast knowledge of Finnish folk music with the western singer–songwriter tradition in a unique and beautiful way. Joni Tiala, originally from the Finnish port of Kokkola, began playing guitar at the age of 11. He is now a master of several stringed instruments.
Vellamo combines the rich tradition of Finnish folksong with an appealing "retro" sensibility, creating an exotic and magical acoustic experience. Stop by and check out our book cart display providing more information about Finland whilst listening to a free show performed by Vellamo at the Yarborough branch library on Wednesday, February 18th from 7-7:45 p.m.

CD/LP/Track Review
Wycliffe Gordon: Cone's Coup (2006)
Wycliffe Gordon couches all the tunes between a fun, catchy and swinging minor blues vocal piece called simply "Shhh!!! (later "Hush Yo' Mouf!!") as the quintet draws our attention. The material on Cone's Coup includes a collection of Gordon originals interspersed with a few standards like "Just Friends and "Stars Fell on Alabama. The arrangements of these standards remain true to the originals. For example, Kurt Weill/Ogden Nash's well-known "Speak Low follows saxophonist Stacy Dillard's suggestion to stick to the original ballad format, rather than the medium to up-tempo rendition showcased by such luminaries as Coleman Hawkins on The Hawk Relaxes (OJC, 1961).
One of the highlights, "Yaht Doo Daht Ditt, is another Gordon original with a straight-ahead New Orleans flavor that will hopefully never go out of fashion. Dillard brings dark tones to his solo before the young Johnny O'Neal and Gordon each take their turn. An extended version of this piece within a live context would be ideal.
Besides Gordon, two other disciples from the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra are presentbassist Reginald Veal and drummer Herlin Rileyto provide solid rhythmic grounding. On "The Breaks, Gordon and Dillard showcase their respective virtuosity by at times communicating musically without the rhythm section, before bringing the full quintet into this fast-paced original. The band slows things down with another blues, "Blooz Hymn, which sounds like a quiet gospel song with the piano front and center, accompanied by Gordon's plunger-muted trombone sound.
Reginald Veal's rubato solo introduces the Coltrane classic "Mr. P.C., in honor, of course, of Paul Chambers. Wycliffe Gordon leads the energetic solos, followed by Dillard and Riley; Johnny O'Neal keeps silent. The pianist provides sumptuous textures, especially on the penultimate tune, "Cruise Blues, which helps draw the show to a close with quiet and expressive notes by the two front men.
Track Listing: Shhh!! (The Band Is Trying To Play); Yaht Doo Daht Ditt; Sweet Spot; Blues For Alice's Freight
Train; Speak Low; The Breaks; Blooz Hymn; Just Friends; Stars Fell on Alabama; Mister P.C.;
Cruise Blues; Hush Yo' Mouf!!.
Personnel: Wycliffe Gordon: trombone, vocals; Stacy Dillard: tenor and soprano saxophone; Johnny O'Neal: piano; Reginald Veal: bass; Herlin Riley: drums.
Style: Straight-ahead/Mainstream

The folks at "Cougar Town" are sort of mad at the folks at ABC. But not too mad.
Oh, it's clear that the stars and producers of the sitcom, which moves to TBS on Tuesday at 8 p.m., are still harboring a bit of resentment toward their former home. Because they never felt like they got the kind of support they deserved.
Join the Discussion | |
Post a Comment |
"I don't know if you guys saw it," said Bill Lawrence, who co-created sitcom. "There's, like, commercials for the show now. It's insane. It's very odd."
Busy Phillips (Laurie) positively gushed about the reception "Cougar Town" got when it was picked up by TBS. "A billboard!" she exclaimed.
"Are you going to believe me if I say this was my plan all along?" Lawrence said.
"I think unless you're lucky enough to be a hit today, your goal in network television and off-net television, specifically, is just to stay alive," Lawrence said. "And I think that we've done so partially because the show's good, but partially because of the effort of all these guys and the writing staff."
When Josh Hopkins (Grayson) was in New York City, he was startled to see a "Cougar Town" billboard in Times Square. And he quickly texted photos of it to the rest of the cast.
It's not just the stars who noticed when TBS began advertising "Cougar Town" during the baseball playoffs.
"Our cameramen and crew and grips are, like, 'You guys know they're airing commercials for the show now?'" Lawrence said.
The promotional blitz has been a big boost for the cast and crew.
"It's just been a great feeling and [we're] so happy," said Courteney Cox (Jules). "It feels like we're a brand-new show that hasn't changed. You know what I mean? It feels like we're out there and I feel like it just started and yet we've been doing it and we feel so comfortable."
But they're also careful to keep the ABC jokes within the realm of humor.
"People are often looking for us to take shots at ABC and Disney — at our old company and network," Lawrence said with a wry smile. "But they're still the owners and producers of the show. And I think that they're doing a great job."

UK Overseas Territories - a collaboration between Kew's Millennium Seed Bank partnership, Kew's UKOTs science team and local conservation partners
There are over 270,000 plant species on this planet. One quarter of those plants now face the threat of extinction. Our mission is to protect the seeds of as many of those plants as possible. From sub-Antarctic heath to various kinds of tropical forest, the United Kingdom Overseas Territories (UKOTs) are home to a diverse range of habitats facing various challenges. Our teams of scientists are working in some of the most remote places on earth to document and collect plants before species disappear forever.

I enjoyed learning about seed collecting and the role of the Millennium Seed Bank. As a science-teacher turned tourism-marketing-officer, I believe that this sort of work is vital to preserve our future in the Falklands as it plays a role in the conservation of important eco-systems.
Louise Taylor, volunteer, Falkland Islands
Plant life in the UKOTs is under threat
As with many island floras across the world, the plants of the UKOTs are under great threat from pressures such as climate change, over-exploitation, habitat loss, and invasive species.
Environment and climate
The UKOTs comprise 16 former colonies that have elected to retain their direct British links and as such form part of the nation state of the UK. They are almost all, with the exception of Gibraltar and the British Antarctic Territory, small islands, and home to a diverse range of habitats.
As a consequence of their isolation the UKOTs have a high rate of endemism (plants found exclusively in particular areas).
Saving seeds for the future in UKOTs
To date, Kew's Millennium Seed Bank at Wakehurst Place holds over 270 different species from the UKOTs in its collections. Kew's UK Overseas Territories science team and Kew's Millennium Seed Bank partnership are working in collaboration with local conservation partners to make further collections. Their priority is to collect and bank endemic and threatened plant species found in the UKOTs. Banking seeds provides options for the future conservation and utilisation of plants.
Even if they are lost in the wild, we will be able to grow plants for reintroduction, medicines, crop improvements, building materials and so on.

I know it says all battles must be on Showdown, but the server lags too much for me. We could battle on PO or Groudons's Grotto. If we do we can both save the logs for proof.

Hall of Fame head coach Don Shula has been keeping an eye on his old team, with their fast start to 3-0, followed by two losses in a row.
We wanted to see how he feels the team is doing and where they might be headed, especially after young quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been sacked two dozen times in just five games. Shula says you can't just blame it on the offensive line, but on a combination of things. He also believes Tannehill continues to grow and thinks the team will do well.
We also asked him about his recent trip, with the rest of the 1972 perfect team, to the White House, where they were honored by President Obama. Four players did not show up for political reasons. Shula said that while they were entitled to do what they wanted to do, he didn't think there was a reason to not be there. "When you get invited to the White House, I think you have to put politics aside..."
The coach also wants you to know about some things going on at his Shula Burger restaurants. There is one in Delray Beach.
Fans can Join Coach Shula for lunch at Shula Burger Tuesday in Fort Lauderdale's Quay Shopping Center on 17th Street Causeway from 11 AM to 1PM. Be sure to check out the new store design!
Join Shula Burger's "All Access Pass" fan club at shulaburger.com for a chance to win Coach Shula's VIP experience at the Nov. 17th home game against the San Diego Chargers. Winners to receive Free game tickets, photos with the Coach in his suite and autographed memorabilia !

By Eric Onstad and Harpreet Bhal
LONDON, May 15 (Reuters) - Copper slid to its lowest in nearly two weeks on
Wednesday after disappointing European economic data fuelled worries about
global growth and metals demand, emboldening funds to add to short positions.
A stronger dollar also weighed on markets and further gains in inventories
reminded investors that most base metals markets are over supplied.
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange fell 1.6 percent to
$7,129 at 1433 GMT, having earlier hit its lowest since May 3 at $7,101 a tonne.
On Tuesday, copper logged its steepest fall in two weeks, a decline of 2.3
percent, and is down nearly 10 percent for the year. Many fund investors
regarded a rebound to nearly $7,500 from 18-month lows as an opportunity to add
to short positions.
'I know a lot of funds were thinking that anything towards $7,500 was a sell
and then we've had weaker manufacturing data and that's helped take the edge
off,' said analyst David Wilson at Citigroup in London.
'At the moment there seems to be a ceiling at $7,500 and looks like a good
floor at $6,800. At the bottom end of the range we've seen the arb (arbitrage
with LME) open up with Chinese buying and strong premiums.'
Copper went into negative territory after data showed Germany's economy
managed a surprisingly weak crawl back into growth in the first quarter of the
year, after a sharp contraction at the end of 2012, while France slipped into
In response, the euro tumbled to its lowest in six weeks against the dollar,
adding downward pressure on metals.
Commodities, priced in U.S. dollars, tend to fall when the U.S. unit
strengthens, making them more expensive for holders of other currencies.
'Nobody is expecting much from Europe economically, the impact on metals
comes more from the growth figures' impact on the dollar, rather than demand,'
said analyst Stephen Briggs of BNP Paribas in London.
Over supplied markets showed up on Wednesday in LME inventories, with copper
stocks rising by 8,825 tonnes to 627,525 tonnes, the highest in
10 years, and zinc stocks jumping by 87,525 tonnes to 1.12
million tonnes.
In industry news, the Indonesian unit of Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc suspended operations at the world's second-largest copper mine on
Wednesday, a source with knowledge of the matter said, after a training tunnel
collapsed the previous day.
'Not a surprising development considering the scale of the accident that set
in yesterday. Rescue efforts are continuing, but the accident is not expected to
impede production since the tunnel site was not an integral part of the supply
chain,' said Ed Meir, analyst at INTL FCStone.

He lives in New York City with his wife and daughter. Professor Hikida is a member of the AIA and is a LEED Accredited Professional. Background and Education I am an architect and educator and have lived in New York City for twenty years. I received my M.Arch degree from Columbia University in 1990 where I was the recipient of the Alpha Rho Chi Medal. While at Columbia I was the teaching assistant for Steven Holl for the first-year studio during my second and third years. Academic Experience For the past 14-years I have taught in the undergraduate and graduate programs at the School of Architecture at Pratt Institute. My teaching experience at Pratt includes 190 credit hours of teaching, averaging 14 credit hours per year, teaching a total 57 classes, and reaching 843 total students please refer to the attached teaching log. My teaching course responsibilities have been diverse and include: Design Studio, Professional Practice, Architectural Internship, Construction Documents, Site Design, Building Systems Technology, Technics, and Materials and Assemblies. I have developed curriculum for Professional Practice, Architectural Internship, Technics, and, Site Design; and served as coordinator for Professional Practice, the Architectural Internship Program, and Technics. My teaching record displays a wide range of teaching capabilities that fulfill a variety of curricular goals, and demonstrates my willingness to accept an increased commitment in teaching, service and professional activity. I received a faculty development grant in 2001-2002 to enhance the professional practice curriculum. While at Pratt I have participated in several National Architectural Accreditation Board (NAAB) reviews for both the undergraduate and graduate schools of architecture. Specifically, I have represented the professional practice and technology course sequences in addressing the following NAAB criteria: construction cost control, technical documentation, client role in architecture, architects' administrative roles, architectural practice, professional development, leadership, legal responsibilities, and ethics and professional judgment. I have an awareness of the 34 NAAB criteria, and I understand the importance of accurately documenting and clearly presenting evidence that fulfills the NAAB standards while supporting the overarching mission statement, and current and future goals of the school. As the IDP Coordinator at Pratt Institute, I provide professional guidance for matriculating students. I provide regular presentations on "The Road to Licensure" and on "Time Management". I regularly participate with AIA National on issues related to intern development. In 2006 I was the primary author of the AIA's Mentoring Guidelines: IDP Mentoring: The Essential Relationship Between Architects and Interns. As stated by Catherine Roussel of the AIA in the introduction to the Mentoring Guidelines: "This new edition is broader in scope, focusing on the benefits of mentoring for interns in the Intern Development Program (IDP), strategies for successful completion of IDP requirements with the help of a mentor, and information about mentoring to help both interns and their mentors". I believe that schools have an obligation to develop the full range of a student's artistic, technical, and career building skills to serve them for a lifelong career in design. During my tenure as AIAS Faculty Advisor at Pratt Institute the AIAS has been responsible for organizing the annual Pratt Architecture Career Day that provides students an opportunity to meet architectural professionals, and develop professional relationships within the broader architectural community. This year's planned Career Day Event is scheduled to include over 60 firms. During the 26th Annual Student Leadership Awards Reception in 2004 I was awarded the Outstanding Student Organization Advisor Award in recognition of my contributions to the quality of student life for my role as the faculty advisor of the American Institute of Architects Student (AIAS) Chapter. I have lectured on "Time Management" and "The Road to Registration" and participate in the architecture faculty peer review committee for the School of Architecture. In addition, I have made presentations at several Pratt Family Weekend events, and teach a course entitled Designing Broadcast and Media Facilities in Pratt's School of Continuing and Professional Studies. In addition, for the past 8-years I have taught Interior Design in the AAS Program at Parsons The New School for Design. Courses include Construction Documents, and Professional Practice. My teaching experience at Parsons includes teaching a total of 25 classes to a total of 328 students please refer to the attached teaching log. I received a faculty development grant in 2002-2003 to develop curricular materials for "Writing for Design Professionals". Material developed with this grant was implemented in the professional practice curriculum. Professional Experience My professional experience includes work with Steven Holl, Michael Sorkin, Gaetano Pesce, HLW International, and Gensler. Notable projects include the following: · Cleveland House, Steven Holl, displayed in the MoMA · Beached Houses, Michael Sorkin, PA Award winner · Chiat/Day Advertising, Gaetano Pesce · Sirius Satellite Radio, HLW · BBH Advertising, Gensler For nearly 20 years my career in architecture has been a personal journey of cultivating and balancing design vision, technological skill, and business management acumen to develop my capabilities as a complete architect. I recognize this as a continuing process, and enjoy sharing the lessons that I have learned in practice with my students and colleagues. From Steven Holl, Michael Sorkin, and Gaetano Pesce I learned the importance of developing visionary design ideas and executing them with rigor. From HLW International I learned the value of integrating design vision with technical documentation, and collaborating with structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineers to develop coordinated technical documents. From Gensler I continue to learn the integration of design, and technology within a project management framework that allows design to thrive, while establishing the best available practices within the business of design. This diversity of professional experience carries in to the classroom and provides the courses I teach with a unique perspective on architecture that bridges the worlds of education and practice |

Talk about "building" brand loyalty (pun intended). Toy master LEGO has been entertaining boys and girls around the world for decades, but this particular story can't help but warm your heart.
An 11-year-old boy from Massachusetts, diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, had saved his money for two years to buy a particular LEGO set. When James Groccia had finally gathered enough money, LEGO had discontinued the Emerald Night Train set he wanted.
James is an avid LEGO loyalist. He attends a LEGO playgroup to help improve his social skills and builds daily LEGO creations on his own. A devastated James sent a letter to the company explaining his situation in hopes LEGO would have a spare set they could send him.
Just in time for the holiday season, we witness that some companies still remember who their consumers are and how to connect with them. James' parents set up a hidden camera to capture his sheer joy as he opened a mysterious box that arrived at their house. LEGO sent James the train set, along with a letter from a customer service employee that we see James passionately read in the video.
This set probably cost LEGO a few hundred dollars, if that. But the amount of goodwill LEGO is building through the sharing of this story is priceless. It demonstrates the company takes care in pleasing each customer and continues to honor LEGO's original core values and principles.
The letter from LEGO concludes, "Fans like you are why we are so lucky as a company". Right they are, and you can bet this family will be loyal LEGO fans and brand advocates for as long as the company exists. If they keep pleasing loyalists like this, LEGO should be around for a very long time.
Happy holidays from all of us at Interbrand.

When we go back forty years ago, it must have been an easy time for brand managers. Consumers were only interacting with brands on a few touch points. The reach of a limited amount of media channels, such as television, was enormous. Three national commercials of 30 sec. could reach about 80% of all middle-aged consumers. Furthermore brand managers were able to just shout and spread their message in a one-way direction and customers were consuming it passively.
But times have changed and the world has become a lot more complicated. Consumers are no longer only influenced by a 30 sec. TV commercial. Media is splintered into a plethora of different channels, and so are consumers. Brand managers have to find new ways to engage consumers and bring our message across. Consumers want to engage, shape and be part of their favourite brand. But to constantly attract and involve customers, brand should play a different role and become more active. They have to facilitate those dialogues with relevant content.
Content marketing is a hot topic and a lot of brands are wrestling with ways to create content around their products that is relevant for their audience, but in the end must also lead to conversion. Many brands have traditionally been structured to create overwhelmingly creative, one-way, advertising campaigns. However, brands nowadays have to shift their current mind-set from creating original campaigns to creating evoking content. They have to move from one-way messaging to dynamic dialogues, from advertiser to discussion leader.
A tremendous example of a brand that is creating relevant content and facilitating a dynamic dialogue with their consumers is LEGO. As the patent for their bricks ran out in 2005, more and more imitators came to market. LEGO had to find new ways to create conversations with their audience to keep up their competitive advantage. One of the initiatives they launched was the LEGO Club Magazine. The magazine, which is customized for specific markets and age, offers new ideas for building structures, interactive cartoon stories on how to play with the yellow little men, and reference to their products in store. The 'high quality' interactive magazine is still in line with the brand's earliest motto 'Only the best is good enough.' LEGO is providing branded content that is targeted in a relevant, authentic and differentiating way to their consumers.
To create strong branded content, such as LEGO, a brand should start by creating a strong proposition, a solid base that resonates in the whole organization and whereupon the consumer touchpoints with the brand are built. Consequently, the brand proposition will function as a compass in creating relevant, authentic and differentiating branded content that will stimulate the dialogue between brands and consumers. Additionally, it will help brands to actually shift from advertiser to discussion leader.

It's a truism that the best brands move with the times, evolving to suit changing tastes and technologies all over the world. It's why some great names past falter while others thrive: consider Nokia, once dominant, versus Apple and others. The latter have not just made their technology relevant, but evolved a whole brand offering that shapes our desires proactively. So when it comes to creative play, think of how far things have come since the analogue days of Meccano and board games. Wii, Xbox, and others have taken things up a gaming notch, incorporating the latest computing and interactive technologies. Those of us who remember the screechy cassettes it took to load a fairly basic and bug-ridden arcade game might even have preferred the tangibility of analogue. With some exceptions (including computer-shy families), it would be hard to imagine most kids reaching for more low-fi alternatives today. This is why LEGO's continued grip on the imagination of kids is as impressive as it is salutary. Of course, brick-and-model-based toys still carve a different niche in the market, as well as in a young person's mind and imagination, from screen-based play. But to keep their offering relevant, LEGO has stretched its brand well beyond its core strength: a superb, unique, and addictive product. In short, LEGO has moved with the times in quite dizzying fashion, especially for any adult who remembers the much more basic parallel world it embraced 20 years ago. You could go far with an imagination or instruction manuals alike, but these were still generic springboards for the imagination: a cityscape, space exploration… not into pre-defined, branded imaginary worlds. That's quite a far cry from where you can end up today – inside Hogwarts, flying on a broomstick or casting spells with a LEGO Harry Potter; battling a LEGO Darth Vader on an ingenious brick-based Death Star… or else in a mixture of on- and offline environments, playing LEGO races on screen and on your carpet, or inhabiting the much bolder LEGO Universe gamescape. This is a brand that's gone full-blown experiential, embracing the gamut of its tangible assets and turning them all shades of digital and analogue. It arguably began with its real-world theme parks, including those in Windsor (U.K.) and Denmark, via cobranded tie-ups (e.g. with Pixar, to create a Toy Story series), to hands-on store experiences with 3D product displays, and digital renderings you can generate by holding boxes up to special sensors. It helps, of course, that LEGO's specialty has always been in generating parallel, imaginative worlds. Doing so in a branded way that speaks to a generation weaned as much on virtual as real gaming, this is an old-school brand that seems to be in pretty good brand health.

CD/LP/Track Review
Jamie Baum: Moving Forward, Standing Still (2004)
Baum's septet features an unusual front line soundflute/trumpet/alto sax and French horn, with the occasional bass clarinet blowing in. The group paints its sound with an interesting spectrum of hues on a set that owes as much to the influences of modern classical soundsStravinsky, Bartok, and Ivesas it does to jazz.
Many of the pieces have a dark tint to them, brooding atmospheres. The opener, "All Roads Lead to You," has the classical tingeand no wonder: the "You" in the title refers to perhaps Baum's major influence, Igor Stravinsky. And "Bar Talk" referencesof courseBartok.
The mood brightens with the first section of "Medley: From Scratch (Trilok Gurtu)/Primordial Prelude," bringing in a sort of funk groove beneath the two-brass/two-reed harmony, before the tune morphs into a wash of swirling, murky greys.
I've found Moving Forward, Standing Still impossible to listen to casually, in spite of the richness and beauty of the sound; there's too much interesting stuff going on at different levels in the septet arrangements. This is a set that repays you for your full attention.

Citizen Warhol
Distributed for Reaktion Books
256 pages
105 color plates, 45 halftones
6 x 8
From his life to his work, Andy Warhol is an enigma. The leading figure of the pop art movement, Warhol created paintings, films, performance art, and his famous studio, the Factory, in New York City. Fans, aficionados, enthusiasts, experts, and critics alike have tried to make sense of Warhol, creating a wealth of knowledge and speculation. Blake Stimson builds on this project in this gorgeously illustrated book, which brings new attention to the philosophical and creative influences behind Warhol's life and work. From Lonesome Cowboy to Campbell's Soup I, this book provides readers with deeper insight into the meaning and legacy of Warhol's life and art.
Citizen Warhol leads us through the artist's youth, from his religiously infused childhood and adolescence in Pittsburgh to his university training at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, where he was profoundly affected by Carnegie's industrial-age theory of art. Stimson recounts Warhol's brief but formative dalliance with the guilt-riddled sensibility and decadent lifestyle of Aubrey Beardsley, an English illustrator whose drawings emphasize the grotesque and the erotic. In addition, Stimson describes how the Byzantine-influenced religious rituals of Warhol's childhood affected his relationships with the figures who starred in his films and staffed the Factory, as well as relating the lessons he learned from his triumphs as a commercial artist working in a world still beholden to the Red Decade ideals of the 1930s. More than any other artist, Stimson shows, Warhol represents the unresolved contradiction between the ideal of the citizen and that of the consumer, an incongruity people continue to struggle with today.

By the middle of the third quarter, Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks seemed to be focusing as much of their energy at the officials as they were at the opposing players. Every time the Grizzlies got the ball, they were intent on pounding the ball at Anthony in the post, victimizing the de facto power forward with one of their twin big men, Marc Gasol or Zach Randolph.
This was the flip side of going small, which New York used so effectively in going undefeated in its first six games. Miami, Philadelphia and Dallas had no response for Anthony's quickness up front. Orlando and San Antonio figured it out for almost three quarters, but they ultimately fell under a barrage of pinpoint shooting by the Knicks. The Grizzlies just kept pummeling away, though, forcing Knicks coach Mike Woodson to make adjustments that were never fully sufficient.
Gasol and Randolph scored 44 points, went 13-for-22 from the field and shot 20 free throws combined in the Grizzlies' 105-95 win over the Knicks on Fr...

Ex-PM of Australia says Obama can control guns
Tuesday - 12/18/2012, 10:55pm  ET
CANBERRA, Australia (AP) - The former Australian prime minister who banned private ownership of rapid-fire guns says President Barack Obama can succeed in introducing new national firearm restrictions in the United States.
Sydney's The Daily Telegraph newspaper on Wednesday quoted former Prime Minister John Howard as saying Obama would be "surprised" by the level of support that Howard received from conservatives by increasing gun controls.
Howard called marshaling support for new controls "difficult, but it can be done."
Howard's spokesman Kieran Walton declined to comment. Howard has declined most media interviews since 20 students and six teachers were shot dead at a Connecticut elementary school last week.
Howard brokered an agreement with states that banned ownership of semi-automatic guns with few exceptions after a gunman killed 35 people in Tasmania state in 1996.

Despite the fact that Google recently held a hackaton for Project Glass developers a few days ago in San Francisco and is hosting another event starting today in New York, we still don't know an awful lot about the search giant's augmented reality eyewear. One key question that remains unknown is how one would hear audio while wearing the headset.
Engadget believes they have solved this mystery thanks to a Federal Communications Commission filing for what is likely the Google Glass Explorer Edition, expected to ship to developers any day now. The publication found a reference to an integral vibrating element that provides audio to the user via contact with the user's head – or what they believe to be bone conduction technology. After all, Google filed for a patent for such a device earlier this month that appeared to be attached to a pair of glasses.
The fact that the technology was detailed in the FCC write-up means they have deemed the product safe for human consumption. It also means that Google is likely getting ready to ship out early developer units to those that pre-ordered the $1,500 device more than six months ago.
As Dvice notes, bone conduction technology isn't anything new but thus far, we haven't really seen any consumer electronic devices use the technology that don't look absolutely ridiculous. If Google Glass does indeed contain the tech in the prototypes we have seen, there is little doubt that they will change that negative image stigma.

Got something to say? Post a comment-
"If Google Glass does indeed contain the tech in the prototypes we have seen, there is little doubt that they will change that negative image stigma."
And that goes for the entire 'wearable technology' stigma, not just bone conducting headphones. Google Glass will really have to be cool to counter act how unfashionable it is to wear technology. The only thing that's not dorky are ear-buds and headphones. The Bluetooth headset and cell phone holster look more like accessories to a bad super-hero costume than they look like a fashion statement.
Google will have quite the challenge to make sure these things don't look like a prop from Back to the Future part II. But what do I know... large-framed glasses and bow-ties are now 'cool' thanks to LaBron and company. Maybe I'm the dork.
