Thoughts on the connected future.
This is what the iPhone 6 will look like, based on reports from Macrumors and Feld & Volk. The design harkens back to the original iPhone, which was my favourite industrial design of the iPhone.
My money, Apple. Take it.
Apple and IBM today announced a partnership to help the companies deploy business-specific apps and devices to corporate business.
"If you were building a puzzle, they would fit nicely together with no overlap," Cook said of the relationship. "We do not compete on anything. And when you do that you end up with something better than either of you could produce yourself."
How times have changed since Apple's famous 1984 ad when the company famously called out IBM for becoming Big Brother. Ofcourse since then, IBM have moved away from the consumer tech business almost completely and are now solely focused on corporate solutions.
This also puts the final nail in the coffin for Blackberry, just in case there was someone that thought they still had any chance to regain marketshare.
App Store Optimization: The act of fiddling with two arbitrary strings of text in order to rank higher in searches in the Apple App Store.
Dark Sky played around with their app name and the keywords field to improve their app's discoverability in search.
Changing our title from the nice and simple "Dark Sky" to the ungainly "Dark Sky - Weather Radar, Hyperlocal Forecasts, and Storm Alerts" had a big effect. Look at those juicy keywords!
When they complicated their app name and pumped up their keywords field, the referrals from the App Store search shot up considerably. Regardless, they've had a lot of success in the App Store even before engaging in the above 'optimization' to game their search ranking.
This shows that Apple still has a lot of work to do to improve app discoverability within the App Store. Improving your app, top 10 lists, blog posts and reviews don't matter, if you can game the keywords field you can get results.
This is broken and Apple should take App Store search more seriously. It's been 5 years without any major changes.
Apple today announced their purchase of Beats for $3 billion, with a focus on growing the Beats Music streaming service as a separate service to iTunes digital downloads business.
Apple has long resisted streaming music, Steve Jobs was famously in favour of direct digital downloads as opposed to subscriptions. However as shown in Mary Meeker's 2014 Internet trends report released today, digital music download sales are falling while streaming is booming. Digital download sales fell 6% in 2013, while streaming music in the US grew 32% in 2013.
In the early 2000s music was synonymous with iPod and iTunes, but over the past few years anyone that is truly interested in music owns a Spotify or Rdio subscription. Spotify itself grew 51% in revenues in 2013 according to the IFPI.
This is a big problem for Apple. If I have purchased a Spotify subscription, that is one less barrier for me switching to Android or Windows Phone as Spotify apps are cross-platform.
Selling individual songs and albums is a dying business and Apple can't afford to keep ignoring that. Even though Spotify is a venture-capital backed business and is not yet profitable, the masses have shown this is how they want to pay for music. Someone needs to crack this model, and make it profitable.
$3 billion buys Apple a profitable headphone business which is nice for them. However there are two reasons why they are really buying Beats: Dre and Jimmy Iovine. These two have developed products that have entrenched themselves into the cultural psyche of music-listening youth, replacing the infamous white earbuds. They have deep connections to the music industry and can replicate some of the reality distortion field that Apple lost with Steve Jobs passing.
Mostly, buying Beats allows Apple to quickly enter the subscription music space, with content deals already in place.
This deal shows that Apple is changing their tune on music downloads, and they have to if they want to remain relevant in the content distribution business. This is highly lucrative for Apple in its own right, as well as vital to selling more iPhones, iPads and future hardware products.
Jalopnik have a hands-on video with Apple's new Carplay feature in a Volvo, that combines native iPhone apps together into a new Apple-designed UI for your car's dashboard display.
Ofcourse, it only works with 2014 model cars from certain manufacturers, so it's going to be a while before this gains any significant proliferation. It's nice to see an Apple designed solution in place of the usually horrible UI found in many car dashboards.
However I wonder how well this will work since Apple is only designing the software, not the hardware. Many touch screens in cars are nowhere near as responsive as the iPhone's or iPad's screen.
Maybe when I upgrade my car sometime in 2018 I can make use of this.
Adam Satariano and Edmund Lee:
Apple Inc. is planning to introduce a new Apple TV set-top box and is negotiating with Time Warner Cable Inc. and other potential partners to add video content, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
There has been a lot of smoke about a revamped Apple TV, and it looks like early this year we will see a new device. This doesn't look to be about a 'revolutionary' interface Steve Jobs reportedly talked about in Walter Isaac's book. Rather, it's about content.
The big scoop in this article is about integration with Time Warner and Comcast cable. One device that can control all content including free to air, cable and on demand content will be the 'halo' device we've all wanted.
And no, it's not going to be an actual TV.
We expect the unprecedented 12" model will boast both the portability of the 11" model, and productivity of the 13" model. The high resolution display will also offer the outstanding visual experience of the Retina MacBook Pro. The offering will likely be lighter and slimmer than the existing MacBook Air to further highlight ease of portability in the cloud computing era. We think the form factor will showcase a much improved clamshell structure, and that it will redefine laptop computing once again following the milestone created by the MacBook Air.
An entry level 12 inch Macbook, and then pro machines at 13 and 15 inches makes perfect sense. Right now you can buy three different Macbook's at 13 inches, this complicates both the consumer buying decision and also Apple's production lines.
Apple will also want to increase floor space for iOS products and future post-PC devices, a good way to do that is decrease the amount of traditional Macs that they sell.
Brad Stone:
At the time of his death, Jobs had come to loathe Google, which he felt was copying features of the iPhone while withholding a key feature of Google Maps that allows smartphones to dictate turn-by-turn directions aloud. Jobs also discussed pulling Google search from the iPhone, but figured that customers would reject that move, according to two former Apple executives.
We knew that Jobs wanted to go thermonuclear on Google, but Stone provides some insight on just how far he was prepared to go to nix their services completely from the iPhone.

MLS Playoffs
With its regular season wrapped up on Wednesday with a 2-0 win over Chivas USA at Rio Tinto Stadium, Real Salt Lake sat back on Saturday and watched the rest of the Western Conference battle for playoff positioning in a day full of excitement.
First, Seattle Sounders FC topped the LA Galaxy 2-0 at CenturyLink Field to claim the Supporters' Shield and knock the Galaxy into the No. 2 seed. Then the Portland Timbers went on the road to top FC Dallas 2-0 at Toyota Stadium, putting RSL in the No. 3 seed, FC Dallas at No. 4 and, temporarily, the Timbers at No. 5. Then to close out the day, Vancouver Whitecaps FC sealed the fifth seed with a 1-0 win over the Colorado Rapids at BC Place.
What this all means for RSL is a playoff clash with the LA Galaxy for the fourth time in the last six postseasons.
Here is a quick run-down of the previous three match-ups, starting in the 2009 MLS Cup Final.
Salt Lake and LA met for the MLS Cup at CenturyLink Field in Seattle (then called Qwest Field). With an MLS Cup record crowd of 46,011 in attendance, the two teams played toe-to-toe for 120 minutes without a victor determined. Mike Magee scored in the 41st minute to give the Galaxy a first-half lead, but RSL answered in the 64th minute with a goal from Robbie Findley.
In the shootout, both teams made their first two attempts and missed their third. Landon Donovan skied his effort in the fourth round and Ned Grabavoy converted his. However, Salt Lake could not find a match-winner until the seventh round. Nick Rimando saved Edson Buddle's shot, his second save of the shootout, and Robbie Russell converted his to give the MLS Cup to Real Salt Lake.
After ousting Sounders FC 3-2 in the Western Conference semifinal, RSL went on the road to the Western Conference final to face the LA Galaxy, who won the Supporters' Shield and topped the New York Red Bulls 3-1 in the semis.
With just one game determining the Conference champions, LA jumped out to an early lead with Donovan converting a penalty in the 23rd minute. Alvaro Saborio responded with a goal of his own in the 25th minute, but LA would storm back with two second-half goals from Magee and Robbie Keane to send the Galaxy to the MLS Cup Final, where it bested the Houston Dynamo 1-0.
Last year, the two teams met in the Western Conference semifinal over a two-legged series. It opened at the StubHub Center where Sean Franklin netted the only goal in the 48th minute. Going back to Rio Tinto Stadium, RSL evened the series on a 35th minute goal from Sebastian Velasquez, sending the series to extra time. There, Chris Schuler scored in the 103rd minute and RSL held on to advance to the Conference final.
With that deep-seeded rivalry in place, the matchup this year is bound to be dramatic.
The 2014 Western Conference Semifinal series starts on Saturday, Nov. 1, at Rio Tinto Stadium. For ticket information, visit http://bit.ly/12D6VER.
Could we see a bald Jeff Cassar this fall?
If RSL makes the MLS Cup Playoffs, we just might.
The RSL boss told the guys from Extra Time Radio on Monday that he and follicly challenged RSL Goalkeeper Coach Daryl Shore made a bet a couple months back that should RSL qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs, Cassar will shave his head.
That could lead to a bit of symmetry on the RSL bench, as Cassar is currently the only member of RSL's coaching staff with any amount of hair; Shore and fellow assistants Andy Williams, Craig Waibel and Paul Dalglish are all bald or sport a shaved look. It should be noted that RSL Strength and Conditioning Coach Dan Barlow has a nice head of hair.
"I wanted to have the best hair on the staff, so I set the bar really low," Cassar joked during his ExtraTime interview. "But I made a bet with Daryl Shore, one of my assistant coaches, that if we make the playoffs I'm going to shave my head."
We've got a preview of what Cassar could look like with a shaved head above. Gotta say, don't think bald is Jeff's best look.
RSL's last trip to Chicago wasn't much to write home about, with the teams playing to a sleepy scoreless draw at Toyota Park on May 9, 2012.
So, instead of showing the highlights from that slow affair – or last year's 1-1 draw between the sides here at Rio Tinto Stadium – we'll bring back a RSL classic: The highlight tape from the Claret-and-Cobalt's 2009 Eastern Conference Final victory at Chicago.
Watch and enjoy above ahead of Saturday's tilt between RSL and the Fire at Toyota Park.
Real Salt Lake owned the Portland Timbers last year, posting a dominant 4-0-2 record in six matches across all competitions against the Cascadia club. RSL and the Timbers will face off for the first time in 2014 on Saturday, when Will Johnson, Caleb Porter and co. will come to Rio Tinto Stadium for a 7:30 p.m. MT kickoff.
The best of the six RSL-Portland games in 2013 came in the Western Conference Final series, which Real Salt Lake won 5-2 on aggregate on the back of a 4-2 win at home on Nov. 10 and a 1-0 win at Portland on Nov. 24. Highlights of those triumphant victories are below. Check them out before Saturday's big tilt at The RioT.
First Leg: RSL 4-2 Portland
Second Leg: RSL 1-0 (5-2) Portland
Real Salt Lake General Manager Garth Lagerwey sat down with ABC 4's Dana Greene for nearly 15 minutes yesterday, talking about MLS Cup 2013, RSL's 2013 season, the supposed "rebuild," and how the Claret-and-Cobalt stacks up against MLS Cup foe Sporting Kansas City, both on and off the field.
ABC 4 was kind enough to post the entire interview to their website last night, after airing this shorter package on Lagerwey's interview on their 6 o'clock newscast. Check out the full-length interview above.
Real Salt Lake advanced to MLS Cup 2013 on Sunday night, defeating Portland Timbers 1-0 (5-2 on aggregate).
Here are some interesting numbers from the match:
With Real Salt Lake's win on Sunday night, the Claret-and-Cobalt has advanced to MLS Cup twice in its nine-season history. Real Salt Lake will face Sporting Kansas City at Sporting Park in MLS Cup 2013 on Dec. 7. The last time RSL advanced to MLS Cup was in 2009 where the Claret-and-Cobalt defeated LA Galaxy 5-4 on penalty kicks at Qwest Field in Seattle.
Real Salt Lake handed Portland Timbers four losses in six games across all competitions this calendar year. In the 35 games against everyone else, Portland only suffered four losses.
Robbie Findley scored his sixth-career MLS Cup Playoff goal in Sunday's match against Portland. The RSL FW has scored two goals in the postseason both against portland– one scored in the 41st minute in the Western Conference Championship first leg 4-2 win and the lone goal in RSL's second leg 1-0 win over Portland on Sunday. With six playoff goals, Robbie Findley is Real Salt Lake's all-time leading goal scorer in the postseason.
Real Salt Lake won the Western Conference Championship series with a total 5-2 aggregate score. In the two-legged series, RSL combine for five goals while Portland was kept to two. The series saw goals from RSL MF Sebastian Velasquez, MF Javier Morales, DF Chris Schuler and FW Robbie Findley.
RSL had a very diverse attack against Portland this year, with nine different players scoring and seven different players assisting in the Utah side's six matches against the Timbers in 2013. RSL MF Javier Morales leads the way for RSL with three goals, followed by FW Alvaro Saborio and FW Robbie Findley with two goals each, while FW Devon Sandoval, MF Luis Gil, DF Chris Schuler, DF Nat Borchers and MF Cole Grossman all have one tally against the Cascadia club. Captain Kyle Beckerman, Javier Morales and Joao Plata lead the way for RSL with three assists against the Timbers each; Grabavoy, Gil, Findley and Saborio all have one assist against Portland.
With Sunday's full shifts, Real Salt Lake Captain Kyle Beckerman and GK Nick Rimando have played all 1,710 minutes in RSL's 18-game playoff history.
Great video from ESPN on the RSL postgame celebration from Sunday's Western Conference Championship win over Portland. Check it out above for the full trophy presentation, along with interviews with Head Coach Jason Kreis, Captain Kyle Beckerman and forward Robbie Findley.
Real Salt Lake and Portland Timbers square off again, and while the last match left this one teetering in RSL's favor, another 90 minutes are needed to protect the two-goal cushion leading to the MLS Cup final.
1. Don't allow Portland to build from wide positions
The Timbers thrive in wide positions cutting inside, and often, you'll find their most dangerous play emanating from channels between the flank and the center. If they're allowed time to build and either drive in a cross or play a ball across the face of the box, they'll be dangerous. Preventing the opposition from finding joy in those areas will be key, but it won't solve everything.
To accomplish this, Our midfielders will need to drop into deep positions in those channels, assisting the full backs in wide defense. If the forwards, too, drop back into defense when needed, two things happen: First, we're rendered more solid when defending without resorting to a line of six or seven players; second, we're put in a good position to exploit the inevitable pockets of space that will appear against an attacking Portland side, and to break forward apace.
2. Build through the middle
It's not that Portland possess any particular vulnerabilities through the middle, but this is how we know how to play. Abandoning that now, especially after it's given us so much joy throughout the season, would be folly. That approach also puts us in the strongest position to win set pieces, which are apparently our new favorite way to score (thank you, Chris Schuler.)
3. Utilize narrow strikers
In recent weeks, Jason Kreis has shifted his deployment of forwards somewhat: Where previously, one of the two was sent into a wide position (Robbie Findley or Joao Plata, typically) while the other was left in a more central position, Kreis is now setting out two strikers in more central positions. We saw this with Devon Sandoval and Robbie Findley against Portland in the first leg, and though it wasn't the first time we saw it, it surely brought us the most success. It seemed prior to the switch that we were attempting to shoehorn in some width to our innately narrow formation -- perhaps it is no surprise that when we returned to a more natural approach, we were successful. This also allows the strikers to combine a bit more, and when one of those isn't Alvaro Saborio, who can typically hold the ball until others join in attack, that could just be vital.
4. Don't give up silly free kicks in good positions
This goes without saying, really. Will Johnson scored from a free kick in a great position against us, and it's something we really should be aware of again. It will take a bit of confidence, but it's something of which we must be aware.

RSL at Portland. Western Conference Championship Leg 2. Sunday night. 7 p.m. MT. ESPN.
Real Salt Lake has been here before.
The Claret-and-Cobalt has taken a two-goal lead into the second leg of a tournament semifinals series once already, in the 2010-2011 CONCACAF Champions League Semifinals against Costa Rican club Saprissa. RSL topped Saprissa 2-0 in the first leg of the CCL Semis at Rio Tinto Stadium in March 2011, then went down to Alvaro Saborio's former club for the second leg, losing 1-2 to win 3-2 on aggregate and move on to the CCL Final against Monterrey.
That CCL second leg was played on artificial turf in the incredibly daunting atmosphere at Estadio Ricardo Saprissa, affectionately known as The Monster's Cave. Conditions will be similar for this Sunday's Western Conference Championship finale at Portland, with RSL again taking a two-goal lead into a second leg, again heading into a very tough atmosphere – the Timbers are 14-1-5 at JELD-WEN Field this year – and again playing on turf.
Let's hope the Claret-and-Cobalt can advance from this one, too. Kick is at 7:00 p.m. MT on ESPN.

Broadband Wireless Exchange Magazine is the World's Largest
|3G, Internet Access WiMAX, Wi-Fi, WISP, How-To, Vendors, Products, Success Stories
Performance Technologies' SIP Signalling Bridge Solves SS7-to-VoIP Feature Disparity2/17/09 - Performance Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: PTIX) announced the SIP Signalling Bridge, an enhancement of its field-proven SEGway product portfolio. The SIP Signalling Bridge enables wireless, wireline, and VoIP inter-exchange carriers to deliver ubiquitous services to subscribers across disparate network types, while preserving their investments in legacy switches and databases.
As today's networks migrate from traditional circuit-switched to VoIP and SigTran or SIP signalling, an unwieldy hybrid state is formed whereby portions of the network use legacy protocols, while other areas use VoIP signalling methodology. Delivering enhanced services in this environment is an expensive proposition because service delivery platforms, or databases, were developed solely for the legacy model. Until now, operators have adopted costly and cumbersome solutions to furnish equivalent features across evolving networks. The SIP Signalling Bridge offers the most economic and efficient solution for spanning the network gap, allowing seamless delivery of enhanced services.
"At Performance Technologies, we respect the significant investments carriers have made in service delivery platforms for Freephone (UIFN) (8xx), CNAM, IN, HLR, and other applications," said Tom Jenkins, senior product manager at Performance Technologies. "Our SIP Signalling Bridge is a single source solution that enables customers to transparently deliver enhanced services through existing databases, across SIP and SS7 boundaries." This unified service delivery approach results in network hardware cost savings as well as increased revenue generation and profits.
Because the carrier grade SIP Signalling Bridge operates at both the application and call setup layers, it not only enables converged services across the expansive TDM/IP network chasm, it allows service providers to protect their investments in databases, voice mail, and IVR systems. This fully integrated software and hardware solution provides carriers the tools for a cost effective, phased migration to Next Generation networks and services.
The SIP Signalling Bridge operates on any SEGway platform and can be integrated with the Core STP, IP-Edge, and Signalling Gateway applications, providing the most feature rich, lowest cost network solution available today. The carrier grade Linux operating system (NexusWare) and scalable, state of the art hardware, coupled with a programmable SIP-to-any protocol capability, allows service providers maximum feature delivery in today's hybrid networks. This is another example of Performance Technologies' "Simply Smarter Signalling."

Simon Fujiwara / Contemporary Art Society, London
Simon Fujiwara / Contemporary Art Society, London
January 29 - March 28, 2014
Simon Fujiwara's Rebekkah was recently purchased for Leeds Art Gallery through the Contemporary Art Society Collections Committee. Established in 2012, the committee selects and buys works by early and mid-career artists to gift to regional museums across the UK.
Rebekkah is inspired by a 16 year old girl from Hackney, Rebekkah, who was one of the protagonists of the 2011 London Riots. Rebekkah was asked by Fujiwara to travel to China to take part in a unique social experiment, where her access to social media was restricted and she visited factories manufacturing the objects she aspired to own and took for granted (fashion clothing, mobile phones, flat-screen TVs). The trip culminated with a viewing of the Terracotta Army, after which Rebekkah was taken to a factory where casts were made of her body to be assembled into modern day versions of the warriors.

Legal Risk Management for Associations: A Legal Compliance Guide for Volunteers and Employees of Trade and Professional Associations
For individuals in the U.S. & U.S. territories
Legal Risk Management for Associations is intended to assist volunteers and employees who have positions of responsibility and authority for trade or professional associations in
- Avoiding violations of the law,
- Protecting their association's future, and
- Accomplishing their association's goals and objectives effectively and with increased confidence that legal problems will not interfere.
Associations of all kinds, whether large, medium, or small in size and whether national, state, or local in scope are affected or potentially affected by a host of laws and regulations at the federal, state, and local levels. Many of the applicable rules are highly technical and nonintuitive; common sense is simply not a sufficient guide to avoiding legal liability. Violations of the law, whether intentional or unintentional, can have severe consequences for the association and for the individuals involved. This book was written to help those who work with associations in any capacity protect themselves and their association.

Shoosmiths lawyer deemed offensive
Readers' comments (35)
As a Guardianista, I thought the Guardian comment was a funny one, but it was always going to backfire. What made me wince (literally) was the "under 50" comment. Surely a lawyer knows that it is illegal to discriminate on the grounds of age! I bet the firm's Employment Team ducked for cover at that one.
In general terms though, making jokes alluding to stereotypes and political correctness in a sector where political correctness is prevalent does not smack of a well thought out PR strategy, particularly as the comments were made in a puff piece PR article. D'oh!
they can always rely on the old tactic of forcing the next round of trainees to defer without any payment - this should save the fees they will no doubt loose.
And to think Mr Ballard lists employmeny law as one of his specialisms on the Law Society website! Ouch. Surely he saw this one coming?
Quote Catrin Griffiths
"I suppose if you look hard enough you can take offence anywhere; this is just about understandable if you're a passionate believer in a particular cause, but it takes a special sort of joylessness to unearth offence over this sort of remark. "
Enough said you joyless humorless pompous bunch.
I thought the comments were particularly horrid given the recent waive of redundancies at shoosmiths...
A bit of a generalisation that only Guardian readers under fifty have any interest in social housing. A friend of mine is a manager of a social housing authority, he reads the Daily Mirror and it doesn't seem to affect his performance.
I wonder what Tom Goff has to say about this article!
Well, it's good to see lawyers' senses of humour are as sharp as ever. I think he was joking, kids - you know? A joke?
speaking as a 50 year old recently redundant lawyer looking for a job I don't think it was a joke but that it shows that age discrimination is still practised by even the largest law firms despite it being illegal
As someone on the wrong side of 50, I find Mr Ballard's comments regardless of it being in jest offensive.
Shoosmiths silence on Mr Ballard's discriminative comment has demonstrated its lack of total commitment to equal opportunities.
Surely someone of my age would think twice before applying for any position at Shoosmiths.
Andy Ballard aka Anton du Beke!!
Shoosmiths states in its our culture and corporate responsibility sections of its website, "we have zero tolerance for arrogance.....". "......actively promote equality of opportunity."
Will Shoosmiths' senior management take a zero tolerance to Mr Ballard's comments which is both unlawful and disrespectful to colleagues and clients.
You humourless, sad people!
What a sad world we live in that someone who is clearly over 50 can't poke fun at a sterotype...I thought lawyers were supposed to be intellegent and enjoy satire...
There are more important and appropriate things to be offended by...please get a life.
I am sure Mr Goff could offer to support him in more practical ways during the fall out from this!
Well there is poking fun at a stereotyoe and then there is denigrating a profitable client group. Good work...
As Ballard looks well over 50 himself surely he is doing himself out of a job?
If only other Lawyers were like Andy the profession would be a better place. Get a grip fellow lawyers the guy was having a laugh. It never fails to amaze me what people find to rubbish big hitters. Before you say it, I work for a competitor and guys like Andy will always be welcome. Wake up and smell the coffee
"...the guy was having a laugh."
How many times has an Employment Tribunal heard that excuse?
Surely any comment (joke or not) that is of a discriminative nature is wholly unacceptable.
Mr Ballard's comment has clearly caused offence to some in the profession and to at least one of his clients. Great way to lose your standing and clients.
"....guys like Andy will always be welcome."
Political correctness gone made postie, must note from the article and the comments posted that Mr Ballard will not be welcome by some of his colleagues and clients.
Are the supporting comments posted from Shoosmiths "deferred" (without payment) trainees?! Surely Mr Goff and his crew have not been drafted in to defend the indefensible!! Pure PR disaster.

Reader reaction to Reuters news
Towing what?
China urges U.S. to halt surveillance near its shores
In June, a Chinese submarine collided with an underground sonar array being towed by the destroyer USS John McCain, near Subic Bay in the Philippines.
There is no such thing as an underground sonar array… obviously you meant to say "underwater sonar array".
Several readers pointed this out to us. We corrected: GBU Editor
In this file photo provided by the U.S. Navy on June 19, 2009, the guided-missile destroyer USS John S. McCain is shown underway October 18, 2006 in the Pacific Ocean. A Chinese submarine accidentally collided with an underwater sonar array being towed by the USS John McCain, CNN reported on June 12, 2009, quoting an unnamed military official.

Last year I really didn't enjoy my Thanksgiving. Well, that was until the Packers took it to the Detroit Lions to keep their unbeaten streak going.
This year, I feel much more relaxed not having to worry about a Packers game. I can sit back, relax, fill up on turkey and pumpkin pie and enjoy the three scheduled NFL games without the angst that comes with each Packers game.
Heck, I might even take a nap or two today … you should, too … because today's games may have at least one turkey among three scheduled.
But I thought I would at least spend a bit of this morning "working" and providing you with my picks for the day.
So, here goes …
Houston Texans at Detroit Lions
Anyone who has seen the schizophrenic Texans, especially last week when they nearly lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, you might have to ask which team will show up today in Detroit. Will it be the team many feel are the best in the AFC or will it be the team that allowed the Jags' Chad Henne to throw at-will. If it's the team that's been giving up tons of yards through the air, that may bode well for the Lions who hang onto Playoffs hope by a thread.
Given that the Lions tend to play well on this day, I think they will give the Texans all they can handle, but in the end the Texans will find a way to win.
Texans 27 Lions 24
Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys
Considering that the Cowboys have been grossly inconsistent this season and that the Redskins, under the guidance of RGIII, have also been up and down, this is a tough one to call. It's being played in Dallas, the Cowboys have a better defense and a better record, but the intangible is that guy under center for the Skins. RGIII has been spectacular at times, but also not so good – and his team's record (4-6) show that. However, Tony Romo has also had his ups and downs.
Expect this game to go back and forth with the team with the ball last having a chance to win it. This one might even go into OT.
Redskins 26 Cowboys 23
New England Patriots at New York Jets
Mark Sanchez vs. Tom Brady? Ahahahahahaha. No contest. Tom knows how to close out teams and with his unit poised to take full control of the AFC East today with a win at the Jets, he won't blink. Though the Patriots' defense has been suspect this year, it won't matter tonight against Sanchez. Though the New York QB is coming off his best game of the year, that was just a blip on his sorry screen of NFL success.
Brady and Belichick go home with an easy win in this one over Sanchez and Fatty Ryan.
Patriots 36 Jets 16
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

"To undergo and then speak of that which is not a thing but which transforms our relationship with all things… this is a sacred and subversive vocation." Peter Rollins
I am a person of faith, what is called for lack of a better word, a Christian. For some reason I always feel some strange urge to put Christian in quote marks, to bracket it out, or to look around and say it quietly as if someone is listening. I am sure most of it is my own fear and general cowardice but it could also be some pieces of the following.
a) I don't want to be lumped into the same pile as those other Christians. You know the ones, the bigots, haters, and fundies always preaching death, doom, and destruction. That anti-gay, anti-Obama, anti-rock and roll, anti-modernity, anti, anti, anti crowd.
b) The word has been made to mean many things that I am not sure they mean. I'm not even sure what I mean by the word. A friend of mine is often asked the question, "Are you a Christian?" and he responds with, "Tell me what one, and I will tell you if I am one?"
c) The word carries a lot of meaning and responsibility, like a weight piled high or a contract to sign. The word literally means Like Christ and I know for sure thatI am not that. I know I am often easily one of those people in category A, giving the rest of you dedicated people bad name. Anne Lamott said,
They think I am Christian-ish. But I'm not. I'm just a bad Christian. Badly born again. And certainly, like the apostle Peter, I am capable of denying it, of presenting myself as a sort of leftist liberation-theology enthusiast and maybe sort of a vaguely Jesusy bon vivant.
And another favorite author of mine, the late Brennan Manning, said
When I get honest, I admit I am a bundle of paradoxes. I believe and I doubt, I hope and I get discouraged, I love and I hate, I feel bad about feeling good, I feel guilty about not feeling guilty, I am trusting and suspicious. I am honest and I still play games. Aristotle said I am a rational animal; I say I am an angel with an incredible capacity for beer.
And so I struggle with the weight of the word. Where others speak of the freedom found in Christ, it saddens me but I feel the shackles more than I should. Should I shout it from the mountain tops as the songs say? Probably. I am just trying to be honest, and in that I take solace that some faith is born from truth telling.
I am also an artist. And in the same way of my faith I am a struggling one. One prone to go months and months without touching a brush, canvas or paper. I love to talk a good game but when the whistle blows, I sit my ass in front of my laptop and plow through a few seasons. Whenever someone asks if I am an artist I cringe at the title because I don't feel like I act like one. I will never cut my own ear off in a zealous rage of color and depression. This is probably a good thing and a bad definition of an artist but you know what I mean. I love art but I don't feel that burning passion to only paint. I dabble and I want to make more time but I don't. I give up easily on my own work while marveling at anothers. Instead of painting, or praying, I just veg out. Damn you, Doctor Who.
In the act of creating, during those times I pry myself out of laziness, something happens. Some strange mystery unfolds itself and I have often sensed a strange connection to the spiritual world. In art, there is a spark that drives us deeper. Artists claim to be drawn to an idea like moths, to channel a story or image from somewhere in the aether. Poets and novelists claim their story was a gift or that they were chosen to tell it like a conduit. Also, in the discipline of growing as an artist there is a connection to growing in faith. The hush of the gallery and the hush of a church, the cool interior and the white walls of purity seem often like the same interchangeable places. I have stood transfixed in awe before a painting, a movie or while listening to a song more than I have before a cross, a priest or the Bible? Does this make my faith less or does it glorify those moments in the supposedly secular?
I want to explore these convergent realms. Flannery O'Connor titled her story EVERYTHING THAT RISES MUST CONVERGE while Lawrence Weschler paid homage and called his book EVERYTHING THAT RISES: A BOOK OF CONVERGENCES. Those titles sum up everything, art is a process that lifts us, in all of its practices. Faith is something that gives rise to humanity, pulling us up an out (when we manage to overcome the human elements that keep us in the mud). Both of these pursuits, seemingly divergent, both help us see above the fog and in the titles of those two great books, come mixing together. If art and faith are transcendent, than somewhere and somehow those two things will meet. Like two lines of railroad track connecting in the distance. These worlds of faith and art are not worlds of mathematical rules, wherein those same two lines only look like they converge but truly never do. These are worlds of intertwinings, of things being beautifully sensical and non-sensical all in the same moment. The mysteries are real and miracles happen, in the parables and in the paintings. I want that place to be real, because I need to know that children's dreams come true and 5,000 can be fed on a few fish and loaves. It helps me deal with things. I also need to know that the feeling I get when I hear that song, or stand in front of that painting, is a real feeling and that it makes me more of who I am supposed to be. I don't want only chemical, biological, or hormonal reasons. I want magical, mysterious, artistic, and colorful answers. I want to explore the when and the how, the why and the where and the who of that rising and intertwining so that I can further explain, understand or get a tiny grasp on those same risings in myself.
In the world of the church (meaning modern, American and/or Western) the language of art and faith has been separated and torn apart. Those convergences are often not allowed. When they do happen, we have lost the ability to see or to talk about them so we either deny their happening or miss the momements completely. In the early days of the church and of art the two were inseparable like lovers. Imagine if we were to remake those connection. Hopefully we can relearn the lost langunage to bring those two worlds together. Then a song can be a hymn, a painting can be a divine encounter and the words of a poet can reveal God, the world around us, and ourselves in the glory we have been missing out on.
Throughout this exploration, we will wander through three main ideas:
1) ART AS REVELATION: How and what does art reveal. Art and faith both aim for opening eyes. In faith it is called apocalypse, meaning revelation. In art it is perception, reaction and response. How do we see art? How do we view it? What does it say to us? In the same ways, how does our faith speak to us? Are we waiting for a prophet on a mountaintop or a still small whisper? Or both?
2) ART AS JUSTICE: For many artists, the goal is to get beyond simply seeing to sseing something worthwhile. Something that takes us out of our world into another. Graffiti is about making oneself known, making a literal mark on the world when overlooked. Art is about opening eyes to injustice and pushing them into action. The same should be said about faith. We are called to understand others, love others and serve others. How do we develop a faith and art that does this?
3) ART AS HOLISTIC LIFE: Art speaks to the unspeakable, making the non-physical physical. It gives form to the formless. Faith/theology is the process of making the divine and the spiritual a part of our everyday life (real and tangible). How do we live in a way that is wholistic, that speaks to the whole person, all emotions, and all experiences? How do we provide inclusive forms in our belief and in the things we make?
And that is this examination, a wide open exploration. This is not a detailed Google Maps route from point A to point B. GPS devices do not work here and are not allowed. There is a good chance you may wander off and never return. Good, embrace that. There is a good chance you will nor agree with the directions, knowing the route you have taken before. Fine, argue with me. There is no definite arrival point.
You will find no "…THEREFORE!: conclusion at the end. It exists to get us talking, walking, and exploring how we can reunite the worlds of faith and expression.
So let go and let the rising take you to see what just might gather up there.

"Turbine Cowboys," tells the stories of a bunch of men and women "who are pushed to the limit both physically and emotionally as they brave extreme heights and every conceivable weather condition to work on wind turbines."
The federal government has opted to move forward with wind energy development off the coast of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Virginia, and Virginia's Republican governor for one could not be happier. Sure, the party line might be that alternative energy is stupid — but when you have the federal government actively hunting down corporate investors for development in your state, it tends to make you pretty optimistic about new technologies.
Clean energy rocks. Nice people get jobs at wind-turbine plants. Oil-industry subsidies suck. We need to drill, baby, drill. And we need to frack, baby, frack. That's the takeaway from the State of the Union.
The Massachusetts Department of Environmental protection has released a 164-page report finding no ill effects.
Solar projects at desert military bases could produce 7,000 megawatts of solar energy — a huge amount. EVs have more than enough range to make 95 percent of the trips we take by car. Scotland aims to source 100 percent of its power from renewables by 2020, but to reach that goal, it needs the price of offshore wind power to drop. A hedgehog survey is the most British endeavor ever, right?
The Obama administration is speeding towards approval for a huge wind project, 1,000 turbines strong, in Wyoming. GOP Senate candidate Linda McMahon cribbed text for her op-ed on Keystone XL from the website of pipeline builder Transcanada. There's a second tar-sands pipeline, Northern Gateway, and that one faces strong opposition, as well.
Where does Mitt Romney stand on climate change and energy issues? Brace yourself: He doesn't have that flip-flopper reputation for nothing.
These adhesive decals stick to any flat surface and are even PVC-free! Why opt for green energy if you can't remind yourself and your guests about it every time you turn on the light? I'm serious. h/t CleanTechnica
What will the U.S. power mix look like in 10 to 20 years? It's impossible to predict for certain, of course, because there's no way to know what regulators will do. Given the heavily regulated nature of the electric sector, even in so-called "deregulated" markets, surprises tend to come from regulatory reform, not innovation. (The U.S. electric grid has shown itself capable of rapid, large-scale transformation in response to regulations.) Nevertheless, there is insight to be gained from thinking through how the generation mix would evolve in the absence of regulatory reform. Despite the lengthy time required to design, finance, …

Chris Locke takes charge of VivaKi trading
VivaKi, Publicis Groupe's investment arm, has enlarged the role of Chris Locke, the UK trading director of Starcom MediaVest Group, making him the most senior trading executive across ZenithOptimedia and SMG.
Chris Locke: takes up enlarged role for VivaKi (photo credit: Colin Stout)
As part of the changes, Chris Hayward, the long-time UK trading director of ZenithOptimedia, will now report to Locke, as well as to the ZenithOptimedia UK management.
VivaKi launched its UK trading arm in September 2008. Although Locke was originally the lead on the operation, Hayward and he have worked together as joint trading directors of VivaKi.
While Locke will continue to have responsibility for some SMG clients, the move means John Baylon, who was promoted to head of trading in September 2013 following the departure of John Davidson, will take on an enlarged role.
Locke has been with the group for 24 years through its various iterations. He joined the media department of DMB&B, which became The Media Centre and then MediaVest in 1999. MediaVest merged with Starcom in 2001 and Publicis Groupe then bought the group in 2003.
Adrian Sayliss, the UK chairman of VivaKi, said: "Since the start of VivaKi, Chris and Chris have worked behind the scenes together with the media owners. Chris [Locke] will now take more of an overt leadership position in the market place for us.
"[The change is] in response to the complexity of the market place. It's more of an evolution than a great change. We need one voice when having conversations with media owners.
"We're not just doing ITV deals – they have digital, partnerships and that's the case for all media owners. We need to work out how we best converge all our assets and bring best practice for our clients."
Tim Neligan, the former chief operating officer of ZenithOptimedia, was promoted to commercial director of VivaKi in November.Follow @MaisieMcCabe
