Giessel to Leave N Peninsula, Micciche Launches Campaign
With a new redistricting plan approved for the 2014 state elections, Senator Cathy Giessel's district will be re-centered around South Anchorage. Under the 2012 interim plan, Giessel represented the northern Kenai Peninsula for the first time…
Sen. Giessel(R-S.Anchorage): "I have thoroughly enjoyed representing the northern half of the Kenai Peninsula. Of course, not just Nikiski but all the way across to Seward and all the way up to Hope. So, it's a big piece of geography, but I have loved every minute of it. I will be serving that district wholeheartedly until the next election, which is November of '14. It remains my district even though, of course, I will be seeking re-election through another district, but those needs this upcoming session are the top of my priority."
The northern peninsula will now be reunited with Soldotna and Kenai in Senate District O, currently represented by Senator Peter Micciche. Micciche launched his 2014 re-election campaign today.

I said that they accused me of using 30tb... This was over the phone when I called to ask about the disconnect letter... And refers to usage in October of last year. In October of last year I was indeed unaware of excessive bandwidth usage until I received the letter. I don't know whether their system screwed up or I just used a hell of a lot that wasn't the point. The whole point was not even the cap... The point was that CL is enforcing a cap on something that they cant prove you used. I asked if they could send me my monthly bandwidth for the three months I violated and was told that there was no way. If they cant prove I violated TOS then I shouldn't be held the that TOS. I am not saying I didn't. I am reasonably sure that some months when I downloaded a lot from ITunes or streamed a lot of music as well as downloaded audio books I went over their cap. I have no doubt that I did at least once. But, since they are accusing me of using so much data, something like 12 times the data cap I would have liked to have seen proof before they threatened to terminate me. Cant provide anything but a popup or any documentation of bandwidth usage but yet they can choose to disconnect the service. That was the whole point of my first post and subsequent. At this point the fact that CL has data caps doesn't matter to me anymore than whether a bear shits in the woods. They are no longer my provider, my current provider currently has no caps and is within 10 dollars price wise for the same service. So I am happy and if my current provider brings back caps I will cross that bridge when I come to it. Then I may go to a business tier. The business tier is great if you want to pay the $255 price tag and sign a two year agreement with centurylink.
I am in a area where no other carriers are available just hardwired CenturyLink I get 12mbps download and 896kb up that is not enough, I stream 24/7 music youtube etc, and have not seen the cap yet. I go over 250GB a month sometimes here and there without downloading anything illegal. I have a static IP from them.
It's not a pop-up. You go into a walled garden, get redirected to the notice, you read the notice, you click yourself out of it and go on your way. There is no way to miss it.
quote:If a customer refuses to comply with one of the many options provided, CenturyLink reserves the right to disconnect service afterthe third month of excessive usage in a rolling 12-month period.»qwest.centurylink.com/internethe···/EUP.pdf
Let me spell out something for those people reading this going, "PISH PAW! Caps are needed and will never affect users doing legit things with their internet!".My wife and I are both avidly play games in our spare time. We like to unwind and play things together, despite it taking ages to download anything on CL's 3MB service.I bought Max Payne 3 for us on the recent Steam sale. We both downloaded it, totaling around 60 gigs because of the MASSIVE size of the game. We'll both also be getting BioShock Infinite, ANOTHER combined 60 gigs. That's a 120 gigs for two games. Over half the cap is whoosh and gone.Things online are taking more and more bandwidth while congestion issues are never sorted in any timely manner, complete lack of speed options, and a high monthly bill. There's no reason for caps except cash grabs, and high bandwidth users are becoming the norm rather than the exception.

"My brother lives right there in Charlotte, my cousin lives there in Charlotte, and all my family is there in Columbia, South Carolina. It would just be a great situation all the way around and being close to everybody.
"Not just that, but playing with Cam, who I think is one of the top five quarterbacks in all of football, and as long as I can remember Steve Smith has been one of my favorites. I just think it's a great situation."
He continued by telling the station that other teams were interested, and that earlier in the year he wanted to play with the Eagles, but no offer came.
"I just want to put myself in a position to go out and have success and to make the guys around me better and obviously play with a quarterback who can really play the position. It's just about me picking my spots and seeing where I'm a good fit. You just look at a situation like Carolina. You can't come across a better situation than that. "
Last season Plaxico had 8 TD's with the Jets, but never could click with Sanchez. He finished the season with 612 yards on 45 catches.
There you have it, one of the better free agents wants to play in Charlotte.

As for any cell donation, donor safety parameters must be included in the design of cord blood (CB) collection procedures. Until recently, CB donation has been regarded as a relatively safe procedure, and practices have evolved from the early stages of CB banking to make reasonable provisions to protect mothers and infant donors from harm linked to CB donation: informed consent, exclusion of complicated pregnancies and deliveries, as well as of pre-term births, non-interference with obstetrical practices, use of trained staff for CB collection, standardized aseptic collection practices, donation limited to single births. Besides, professional standards foresee careful record keeping of clinical side effects that may occur in the course of CB collection. Since 2011 time to cord clamping has become a concern in the light of publications on iron depletion and post natal outcome, including neurological development, and linked to early or late cord clamping at birth. As data show benefits of late clamping in low birth weight infants in terms of anemia and iron stores, it now admitted by professional organizations to delay cord clamping for 1 minute after birth, especially for pre-term births. However, in full term births after uncomplicated pregnancy, that are the target population for CB donation, there is no clear indication to confirm or refute benefits of late clamping. In some countries, sometimes emotional awareness has increased about optimal timing of cord clamping, leading to some resistance to CB donation and to questioning of the harmless reputation of CB donation. CB banking professionals however have not changed their recommendations, leaving up to obstetrical teams the decision to collect or not, after risk benefit assessment. However, CB bankers remain with the duty of providing transparent and up to date information to mothers, as well as of setting up accurate policies regarding informed consent.

This experimental study was carried out within the context of high concentration photovoltaics. The paper presents the results of an experimental investigation relating to the quantification of the impacts of the chromatic effect on the performance of a double junction GaInP/GaAs solar cell. Chromatic effects are the result of material dispersion caused by the refractive optics component. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the spectral modification of the incident beam on the whole solar concentrator system performance. Such considerations are fundamental in producing a highly accurate design, with which to achieve the best possible system performance. Efficiency is evaluated within the vicinity of the focus of a Fresnel lens designed for concentration. On the optical axis, rays with different wavelengths are not focalized at the same points. The spectral content of the beam depends, therefore, upon the position of the cell along the optical axis. It is assumed that spectral content modification may have an impact on cell performance and, as a consequence, on system efficiency as a whole. Efficiency of the optical Fresnel lens and of the cell were evaluated in relation to spectral content modification. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 14 (4 ULg)
Site-specific sediment characteristics impact on metal bioavailability and bioaccumulation in the Polychaete Nereis virens

The king ragworm (Nereis virens) is a cosmopolitan species of soft sediment inter-tidal communities and is known to be impacted by various pollutants. More precisely, in many coastal locations, N. virens is exposed to a range of metals including copper and zinc which are known to be highly toxic. However, the relationships between metal bioavailable concentrations in the sediment, the pore water and the tissues of N. virens have not yet been investigated in this is ecologically and commercially important species. Hence, to investigate these relationships, sediment, pore water and associated worms samples were collected from seven sites along the English Channel coast of the UK, chosen for their different pollution histories. The BCR three-step sequential extraction procedure was used to assess the bioavailable metal concentrations in the sediment, in conjunction to standard extraction techniques to determine the tissue and the pore water concentrations. All samples were measured by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (FAAS). Results from correlation analyses showed that site specificities and metal pollution histories along with sediment characteristics (organic content and particle size) were important factors regarding the bioavailability of copper and zinc to worms. Indeed, sediment organic content and grain size were positively correlated to metal bioavailable concentrations in the sediment. Strong correlations were found between copper bioavailability in the sediment and in the pore water and between zinc concentrations in the pore water and in N. virens. These results showed that zinc from the pore water was more readily bioavailable to N. virens than copper. However, our data suggested that N. virens accumulated metals regardless of the pollution history/level of the sites. In addition, our data showed that metal concentrations in N. virens were lower than those found in other closely related polychaetes such as N. diversicolor. This suggests that N. virens, unlike other polychaetes, is well adapted to highly contaminated sites by the possible use of specific metal regulation mechanisms, which would require further analysis.

Cadmium and mercury sediment pollution along the British coastline of the Channel: A first spatio-temporal integrated approach

Cadmium (Cd) and Mercury (Hg) are 2 widespread trace metals occurring in both terrestrial and marine environments. They play no physiological role and are often toxic even at low concentrations and were therefore identified as priority hazardous substances under the European Water Framework Directive and included in the European List I of Dangerous Substances. Marine sediments are considered as the ultimate sink of non-degradable metals, where they can accumulate in considerable quantities. The UK coastline has been polluted with metals for decades or even centuries and, although many studies have monitored sediment metal loads in specific locations, there has been no recent systematic monitoring approach along the whole of the south coast. In addition, few reliable data exist on decadal temporal trends for most sediment pollutants. Focusing on Cd and Hg, we have investigated their spatial and temporal distribution in sediment samples collected from 42 sites along the English coast of the Channel from 1990 to 2010. From a temporal point of view, data analyses showed that mean Cd levels in sediments significantly decreased by 59 % during that period of time, from 0.78 to 0.32 mg kgDW-1 of sediments. This reflects a decrease globally to below the 0.70 mg kgDW-1 Cd Threshold Effect Level (TEL). Adverse effects caused by Cd on the biota should, therefore, be rare. Spatially, Cd displayed an east-to-west increase of its levels, with several western sites with Cd still above the TEL. Regarding Hg, sediment levels did not significantly change from 1990 to 2010, remaining approximately twice as high as the corresponding 0.13 mg kgDW-1 Hg TEL. Hg also displayed an east-to-west increase of its levels, whilst 55 % of monitored sites had a mean sediment Hg concentration in average 3.5 times higher than the TEL. Despite regulations, non-degradable metals such as Cd and Hg that have accumulated in sediments over considerable periods of time may consequently still pose threats to aquatic organisms, highlighting the need for continued extensive spatially and temporally integrated monitoring approaches.

We present a new concept in solar concentrator: spectral splitting. It implies reflective, refractive and diffractive elements that allow two spectrally differentiated beams to reach different and/or unmatched lattice solar cells. Those cells efficiencies are then enhanced. The aimed geometrical concentration factor is 5× and the theoretical optical efficiency of that concentrator concept reaches 82%.

Arise from the chemical and biological degradation of plant and animal residues and from the synthetic activities of microorganisms in the soil, humic substances (HS) are natural heterogeneous aromatic and organic compounds. These substances are chemically complex with no clearly defined chemical structure, although generalized models have been proposed and they can be divided into fractions of humic acids, fulvic acids and humins depending on their solubility in water as a function of the pH. The stimulation of plant growth and development by HS are the activities that have attracted the attention of many scientists. They influence plant productivity directly by the stimulation of biochemical and metabolic processes or indirectly through the modification of soil characteristics and microflora activities. All together, these properties mainly affect root architecture. By inducing root hairs proliferation, differentiating root cells and enhancing lateral root emergence, an increase of the total root biomass is observed. Experiments targeting the rooting stages in absence of interferences were conducted in vitro using HS extracted from landfill leachate and a stable commercial formulation ("Humifirst" from TRADECORP company: 12% humic acid and fulvic acid 3%) issued from leonardite. Shoots and leaves explants of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) and black alder (Alnus glutinosa L. Gaertn) vitro-plants were treated with 10 ppm leachate HS and 100 ppm Humifirst HS for 5 days during the rooting induction/initiation phase. The treated explants were then transferred into elongation medium containing only nitrate calcium for 4 weeks. The results show that application of HS during the root induction/initiation phase did not significantly influence root growth of both species in comparison with control explants.

Introduction : Il est nécessaire de développer des interventions visant à aider les professionnels qui accompagnent des personnes âgées (atteintes ou non de démence). Les programmes existants sont néanmoins essentiellement destinés aux aidants en milieu institutionnel. Objectif : Évaluer, au niveau de différents paramètres (âgisme, connaissances sur la maladie d'Alzheimer, sentiment de compétence, satisfaction professionnelle, burnout, stratégies de coping), l'efficacité d'une intervention destinée à des aidants professionnels à domicile. Méthodologie : 17 aides familiales ont bénéficié d'une formation et de supervisions visant à améliorer leurs connaissances sur les démences et à les aider à mettre en place des stratégies de résolution de problèmes face aux difficultés rencontrées dans leur pratique, et ceci, afin de favoriser une vision moins stigmatisante de la maladie d'Alzheimer. Différents auto-questionnaires ont été complétés par les participantes avant et après l'intervention. Résultats : Les analyses statistiques indiquent que l'intervention permet de diminuer l'âgisme des aidantes, d'améliorer leurs connaissances sur la maladie d'Alzheimer, leur sentiment de compétence et leur satisfaction vis-à-vis de leurs tâches professionnelles. Conclusion : L'intervention est efficace puisqu'elle atteint ses objectifs initiaux. Ces résultats encouragent non seulement la formation des aidants professionnels à domicile mais aussi l'évaluation de l'efficacité des interventions proposées, à la fois auprès des aidants professionnels, informels et des personnes accompagnées. En effet, sur base de la littérature [Avorn & Langer, 1982 ; Coudin & Alexopoulos, 2010], nous faisons l'hypothèse que l'amélioration des connaissances et la diminution de l'âgisme réduisent le risque d'induire des comportements de dépendance chez les personnes accompagnées. Ce constat est important compte tenu du rôle des aides familiales, à savoir aider les personnes âgées (atteintes ou non de démence) qui présentent des difficultés dans la réalisation des activités (instrumentales) de la vie quotidienne afin qu'elles restent le plus longtemps possible à leur domicile.

Over the last decade, bisphenol A (BPA) attracted a lot of attention. This molecule, commonly used as a precursor to produce epoxy-resin and plastics, is an endocrine disruptor presenting an estrogenic activity [1]. Despite its health toxicity, BPA is present in a broad variety of consumer goods released from plastic bottles and packaging for example. Since the discovery of its adverse health effect of BPA, the manufacturers tend to use structural analogues of BPA such as BPS, BPF and BPB to produce plastic materials [2]. However, the health safety of these molecules is still not demonstrated. Currently, bisphenols are actively researched and quantified using solid phase extraction and chromatography techniques which are time and solvents consuming. Therefore, it could be very interesting to quantify simultaneously bisphenols using a fast and "green" technique. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) exalts dramatically the Raman scattering of molecules adsorbed or very closed to metallic surface enabling to detect very low amounts of analytes while keeping the structural information obtained from the spectrum which is very interesting to consider multiplexed analyses [3-4]. Moreover, SERS, which is a solvent free and fast acquisition technique, is an attractive tool in "Green Chemistry" [5]. In this context, the development of a multiplexed quantitative approach to detect bisphenol was considered. Silver nanoparticles (AgNps) were selected as SERS substrate and their functionalization was investigated taking into account the weak affinity of phenolic molecules for gold and silver surface [6]. Pyridine was selected as surface modifier and allowed to attract bisphenols around metallic surface thanks to hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonds [7]. Afterwards, the SERS samples preparation was optimized playing on the concentrations of pyridine and aggregating agent used to get the nanoparticles closer to each other which promotes the SERS effect. Tap water samples were spiked with different concentration of BPA from 5 ppb to 1000 ppb and analyzed using the optimized SERS sample preparation. A good linearity of the response was observed and a calibration curve with coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.9922 was obtained by plotting the intensity of a principal band of BPA versus the concentration. This last step was repeated using BPB as analyte and a calibration curve with a R2 of 0.9991 was obtained for the same range of concentration using a specific band intensity of BPB. Finally, tap water samples were spiked with different concentrations of BPA and BPB simultaneously and analyzed using SERS and it was possible to detect selectively the two molecules thanks to specific bands and a good linearity of the response was observed for both. To conclude, promising results were obtained which pave the way to "green" multiplexed quantitative analyses of very low concentrated analytes using SERS. References: [1] J.-H.

Flowering is a crucial step in plant life cycle and is therefore tightly controlled by both environmental and endogenous cues. The involvement of the aerial organs of the plant in the molecular mechanisms controlling floral transition has been extensively documented while the participation of the roots remains poorly investigated. However, the induction of flowering by photoperiod involves systemic signals that move in the phloem from leaves to sinks, and hence presumably reach the roots. We therefore performed a transcriptomic analysis of the roots during the induction of flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana and indeed identified a large number of differentially expressed genes. A reverse genetic approach further confirmed the pleiotropic effects of flowering time genes on root architecture. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 18 (2 ULg)

INTRODUCTION Dans notre société, les personnes âgées atteintes de la maladie d'Alzheimer sont les cibles à la fois de stéréotypes liés à l'âge, mais aussi de stéréotypes liés à cette maladie (Sartorius, 2003). Leur aidant familial est également souvent touché par l'image négative de la pathologie que les stéréotypes imputent à leur proche (Werner, 2008). Aussi, cette recherche a pour objectif de mieux connaître le point de vue d'aidants familiaux sur la maladie d'Alzheimer et le vieillissement, pour mieux appréhender les implications de ces représentations sur leur vécu. METHODE Un ensemble de questionnaires, dont des mesures de la vision du vieillissement (FSA-R ; Boudjemadi & Gana, 2009) et de la maladie d'Alzheimer (FS-ADS ; Werner et al., 2011), ont été administrés à 38 aidants familiaux dont le proche est atteint de la maladie d'Alzheimer ou d'une démence apparentée. RESULTATS Les analyses statistiques montrent que les individus qui présentent une vision négative du vieillissement sont ceux qui sont aidants depuis plus longtemps. Par ailleurs, les personnes qui ont un vécu négatif de la maladie (qui ont honte de leur proche ou qui sentent que les autres ont honte de lui), sont ceux qui se sentent moins compétents en tant qu'aidant. De même, le fait d'avoir peur de son proche, est associé à un épuisement physique et émotionnel, ainsi qu'à une humeur triste et anxieuse. CONCLUSION Les stéréotypes liés à l'âge et à la maladie péjorent plusieurs éléments du vécu de l'aidant (santé, sentiment de compétence, expérience en tant qu'aidant.). En conséquence, il importe d'encourager la déconstruction des stéréotypes et idées reçues véhiculés par la société, notamment par le biais de programmes d'aide aux aidants [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 33 (0 ULg)

An unsecured path: Unworkable immigration 'reform'
The Senate plan grants provisional legal status to illegals, who would have to pay back taxes and a penalty and pass a criminal background check. They could attain a green card only after certain enforcement provisions, such as implementing a tracking system for people who enter the country on temporary visas and requiring the use of E-Verify by employers, are complete.
President Obama offered similar carrots and sticks in a similar order. The senators and the President must take all of us for fools. There is no way that meaningful border enforcement will come from either of these proposals. That is because neither offers it. "It" is a border fence.
Last week an illegal immigrant was arrested in Raleigh, N.C., for DWI. He had been deported in 2008. And 2009. And 2011. Without a fence, deportation means nothing. Without the threat of meaningful deportation, the incentives to stay on the "path to citizenship" have no bite. Why bother completing the path once you have legal status? As columnist Charles Krauthammer has pointed out, once granted, "provisional" legal status will never be revoked.
Give us real border security first. Everything else comes afterward.

What they're saying: "I'm not blind and oblivious to the fact that now we're in a division that has six teams and only four of them are eligible for the Big Ten championship game. But it really won't change our approach. ... Any game that's on our schedule, I'll definitely make note of teams that are within our division, but it really doesn't change what we do because we can never skip a step to get where we want to be." - Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema

Three things to watch
1. Bad blood: Both coaches cleared the air about the public dust-up about recruiting tactics back in February, and Urban Meyer and Bret Bielema apparently consider the issue resolved. But that's off-the-field stuff, and Meyer isn't likely to forget about the accusations hurled his way from Wisconsin when he heads to Madison for his first visit as the coach of the Buckeyes in what could shape up into a fascinating divisional series between the two programs down the road.
2. Encore performance: The highlight reel of the Ohio State passing game last year isn't long, but perhaps the crown jewel of it has also surely been playing through the minds of the Badgers since Miller rolled out and hit a wide-open Smith 40 yards down the field to pull off a late upset. Assuming he stays healthy, Miller will have had 10 games to show off his progress at quarterback by the time he squares off against the Badgers again. And a successful last two weeks of the season could really start building the hype for him heading into his junior campaign.
3. On the line: In the decimated state of the Leaders Division, Ohio State might not even be able to play spoiler to Wisconsin and keep the heavy favorite out of the league title game. With both the Buckeyes and Penn State ineligible for the postseason, there could be plenty of room for error at the top in what is shaping up to be a two-team battle between the Badgers and Illinois. But the conference standings still mean plenty to Ohio State even if it can't make the trip to Indianapolis, and the unofficial division title could be up for grabs at Camp Randall.

Korea and Nike unveiled the new national away kit for 2014, revealing a design rich in national pride combined with the best in performance innovation.
"This kit possesses both revolutionary performance benefits, and a strong sense of celebrating the country," said Martin Lotti, Nike Football Global Creative Director.
The new Korea away jersey is a classic white and prominently features the Taegeuk, the yin and yang symbol from the Korean national flag.
The red and blue interlocking shape from the Taegeuk appears at the top of each sleeve, with the right shoulder accented by red detailing, while the left shoulder sports blue details. The shapes give the jersey a modern appearance and match the contours of players' bodies.
The design team also wanted to give Korea a unique collar, one that has clear Asian influences and draws inspiration from classic Korean attire.
The collar features red piping on the right side to correspond with the color of the shape from the Taegeuk on the right shoulder, while blue piping on the left side matches the left shoulder.
Inside the back of the neck, a pennant tab features a Tuhon symbol in traditional Korean calligraphy that translates as "Fighting Spirit" and represents the inherent qualities of Korean football.
"The clean and crisp white kit, with highlights of red and blue, is visually stunning," said Korean National Team midfielder ChungYong Lee. "Coupled with performance innovations that cool the body, this kit will play an important role for us in the heat and humidity of Brasil this summer."
The new away shorts are white, simple and iconic, with a slimmer fit that is tailored to the body. The cut has been specifically designed to aid movement and comfort. The center back of the shorts features Nike's signature laser vents to further aid in cooling and allow for moisture management. The new away socks are also white.
"By managing sweat and keeping the body cooler longer, players feel more comfortable, sweat less, and perform better," said Lotti.
"Incorporating environmental sustainability is a key part of the design and development process for us," said Lotti. "Our aim is to create a kit that performs for players and is good to the planet."
"When we asked players to talk about the kind of protection they need during a match, they showed us scars and abrasions on their upper-back hip area from sliding," recalled Lotti. "Several players showed us these same injuries so we set-out to add more protection, while balancing the need for lightweight and breathability."

The state of college baseball is changing, a change, for programs in our region, that is for the better.
Around the Midwest, new facilities are rising at Indiana, Minnesota and Purdue. After advancing to the first NCAA Regional in program history the University of Dayton is a fully-funded program. Louisville, Notre Dame and Pitt are headed to the ACC. Changes to the RPI formula begin in the 2013 season which provides more incentive to travel and rewards teams for winning on the road. Programs have never recruited better than they are currently are, more top talent is staying within northern state borders. Between the Big Ten Network and Northern Illinois' trip to the Orange Bowl, the Big Ten and Mid-American Conference are entering days with cash on hand never before have seen.
As a result of the changing landscape, teams around the region are becoming more and more competitive relative to their national peers.
And with success comes support, with support comes money.
Money that is needed for teams to reach the top and stay at the top it is requiring more and more financial backing.
Following Kent State's trip to the College World Series, going into the 2013 season Buckeye State Baseball will try to dig into the numbers of the changing college baseball landscape.
From what one can expect with the change in the RPI formula, to examining operating expenses between regional programs and national powers and how athletic programs are funding baseball programs, a comprehensive look at the decimals, dollars, budgets and ultimately wins will be had.
We begin at what it costs to employ one of the nation's hottest coaches and what the nation's largest athletic department is paying to get back on top.
On Sept. 24, Kent State athletics announced a six-year extension for head coach Scott Stricklin. Coming off of the programs first College World Series appearance, the Kent State athletic department ensured itself the coach, who has led them to five of the last eight NCAA tournaments, would not leave.
The extension increased Stricklin's annual salary to $300,000, more than double the $145,000 salary his previous contract offered. Stricklin's prior contract was not one that was out-dated, he entered it on July 1, 2011 after leading Kent State within one game of a Super Regional appearance -finishing as runners-up of the Austin Regional, but it was one that was necessary.
For the past three seasons, with every opening at a BCS school Stricklin's name was instantly attached, whether or not he had any interest in the position. While Stricklin interviewed and was eventually passed over at Michigan State and Ohio State, the last three offseasons saw national scribes mention him at vacancies at Notre Dame, Tennessee, and Michigan.
Each successive season Stricklin guided Kent State deeper into the postseason, the pressure for an athletic department with a fat wallet and desire to revive its baseball program increased.
The opening at Michigan may have provided the biggest enticement for Stricklin to leave. A public records request into the university was replied with the fact Michigan and new head coach Erik Bakich have yet to finalize his contract but speculation had the pay as high as $400,000. But for Stricklin, after guiding his alma mater to Omaha with a belief he could build in Kent what could maybe, but not definitely be done elsewhere, the 40-year-old skipper opted to stay.
And he was rewarded handsomely.
Meanwhile in Columbus, Greg Beals is striving to reach the heights Kent State has achieved the last three seasons.
After Ohio State went 42-19 in winning the 2009 Big Ten championship and finishing as Tallahassee Regional runners-up, the Buckeyes went backwards in 2010. A 28-23 season marked the first time in 22 years Ohio State failed to win 30 games. With an 11-13 Big Ten season, the Buckeyes were left out of the six-team Big Ten Tournament, which their home field of Bill Davis Stadium hosted. Deciding he didn't have the energy to continue coaching the game, 23-year head coach Bob Todd retired, concluding his hall of fame career.
With the weight of just one conference championship since 2001, Ohio State entered an extensive coaching search. The program opted for Beals, then the coach at Ball State, over Stricklin, Louisville assistant Chris Lemonis and Virginia assistant Kevin McMullan.
As soon as Beals signed his contract, the desire for Ohio State to return to past glory was evident, Ohio State was guaranteeing him $300,000 a year over five seasons to right the ship.
Ohio State enters the 2013 season with eight positional starters returning and five starting pitchers. The Buckeyes are deep and experienced and are the team supporters have believed would be the one that bears course-changing under Beals. Media members have pegged the Buckeyes are the Big Ten favorite and if so the Ohio State administration should feel just in selection of Beals.
Regardless of if Ohio State does actually claim a conference championship or reach the NCAA tournament, the contract Beals is operating under shows how valuable those achievements are and want the to obtain in the current day of college baseball.
The diagram below shows the guarantees and incentives between the contracts of Beals and Stricklin. (Click to expand)
Beals and Stricklin represent Ohio's two highest-paid coaches, both guaranteed to receive $300,000 annually.
Kent State offers significantly more incentives for Stricklin, but Ohio State pays for reaching significant statures.
A conference championship for Ohio State nets Beals $12,500. For Stricklin, it is $1,500, $500 for the MAC-East, $1,000 for the overall title. Beals contract offers nothing distinctly for winning the Big Ten Tournament, but he would receive another $12,500 for advancing to the NCAA Tournament with the tournament's auto-bid. A tournament title pays $1,500 for Stricklin, there is no distinction of a bonus for just a Regional appearance if one were to come via an at-large berth.
From there the two contracts diverge.
Beals is rewarded $25,000 if Ohio State heads to Omaha and another $25,000 for appearing in the championship series. That is the extent of his bonuses.
Stricklin receives $2,000 for each NCAA Regional win, the max is four, $3,000 for each Super Regional win, the max there is two, $5,000 for each win in the College World Series and $25,000 for winning the national championship. There are $1,000 bonuses for Stricklin being named the MAC Coach of the Year as well as Regional Coach of the Year. He receives $500 if Kent State has a team grade-point average of at least 3.0.
In total, the one-year max salary under their current contracts reside at $375,000 for Beals, $374,500 for Stricklin.
While neither represents the $500,000 Oregon head coach George Horton is guaranteed in his new contract agreed to in November, How those two figures fare nationally are in tow of whats expected within college baseball's power conferences.
The contract Dave Serrano signed when hired as Tennessee's head coach, provides a base salary of $275,000. After a historic season which included a stint at no.1 before it ended at the hands of Kent State in the Gary Regional, Kentucky extended the contract of head coach Gary Henderson which pays a base of $325,000. Both contracts may provide incentives that eclipse what Beals and Stricklin may be able to reach, but the base figures for the two Southeastern Conference coaches show the want to win is just as strong in Ohio as in the south.
As the two former Kent State catchers and teammates lead their respective clubs, Beals and Stricklin have the supports of any athletic department that matches any around the country. They too have the pressure to win.

Player Name:
Daniel Carcillo #13
Forward- Left Wing
Personal Stats:
Height: 6'0″
Weight: 203lbs
Shoots: Left
Season Numbers: (combined from Rangers and Kings)
Games Played: 57
Points: 5
Goals: 4
Assists: 1
Shots on Goal: 44
Hits: 112
Blocked Shots: 21
Penalties In Minutes (PIM): 100
Average Time On Ice (TOI): 9:17
The New York Rangers acquired Carcillo from the Los Angeles Kings shortly after Derek Dorsett broke his leg in January. Carcillo is a pest, he's a gritty guy who isn't afraid to drop mitts when the situation arises. He defends his teammates and is a fourth line grinder. He isn't a liability on the ice unless he takes a trip to the "sin bin", then the penalty kill goes to work.
Carcillo really isn't the player people are used to seeing anymore. When he played for the Philadelphia Flyers, he had a reputation for being tough as nails, something happened between his time in Phoenix and Los Angeles that left him slightly wonton. He did raise the cup as a King, but his bite and tenacity have been reduced considerably in the last few years. Carcillo has only dropped mitts, and taken hard runs, at young and small players. He hasn't been overly productive and his time on ice has yielded very little to benefit the team overall.
Post Season Prediction:
Unless Derek Dorsett gets injured I don't see Carcillo getting much ice time. He was a quick trade to fill in a vacancy when Dorsett was injured. Head coach Alain Vigneault, tried balancing Carcillo and Dorsett in the lineup but there isn't room enough for both, Dorsett fits the team better. I see Carcillo sitting, in the press box, a LOT.

Todd Mcfarlane Sues Al Simmons Over Spawn
- Written by ThanosCopter on Monday, October 01 2012 and posted in News with Benefits
More suing occurs from the Todd McFarlane camp.
Source: Hollywood Reporter
Al Simmons, a former employee of Todd McFarlane, is being sued by the Spawn creator for having the audacity to describe himself as the inspiration for Spawn. Simmons claimed that he was the basis for Spawn, whose alter ego was also named Al Simmons, in a new memoir entitled "The Art of Being Spawn".
In his book, Simmons claimed that his life was used as the partial inspiration for Spawn. The lawsuit disputes this, claiming that Simmons (the person) has never been confused for Spawn, a former CIA operative resurrected with hellish powers after a botched mission. Complicating matters is that Simmons (the person) often made appearances on behalf of McFarlane's company as "the real Spawn" and that Simmons had to sign a waiver when the Spawn comic series was first released.
While McFarlane was interviewed for the memoir, McFarlane claims that the book is just trying to profit off of McFarlane's name and creations. He also claims that the book commits libel, unfair endorsement and misappropriation of trade secrets for claims made in the book.
This is not the first time that McFarlane has sued over Spawn. He engaged in a lengthy legal battle with Neil Gaiman over aspects of the Spawn story, which also mired the rights to Miracleman in legal hell for over a decade. Also, McFarlane lost a fifteen million dollar lawsuit to hockey player Tony Twist for using his likeness and name for a character in his book. Of course, Simmons isn't asking for a stake in the Spawn franchise, so the stakes are different this time around.
Personally, this seems like a rather petty lawsuit, but perhaps it's necessary for McFarlane to protect Spawn from potential claims in the future. It's doubtful that this will interfere with any Spawn comics coming out, so the 15,000 or so people that still read it shouldn't be concerned.

Well done to Doctor Who and Mr Moffat winning Programme of the Year at the BAFTAs and good to hear the big cheers for the win and for Steven. While I am no fan of the last couple of series, it is clear that Steven Moffat is highly respected and regarded by his peers and Doctor Who remains very popular. I for one thought it was quite classy that some of the less familiar faces who do the hard work behind the scenes came up for the award and had some well deserved recognition.
The other great cheer of the night was for David Bradley. I do wonder if he was put up for Broadchurch, rather than Adventure, as a way of definitely winning as there a couple of very strong lead actor contenders. Either way, I think his performance as William Hartnell, along with Olivia Colman in Broadchurch were the two best performances on TV last year, even if neirther show were as good as these lead performances.
Given Peter Capaldi's great record in receiving BAFTA nominations and other awards and all of the fantabstic reports from set about his performance so far, I think we may see Doctor Who up for awards again next year!
I enjoyed the 50th special but, well, it was nothing special. Glad it won although I've no idea what it was up against.
I'm kind of glad Breaking Bad didn't win. It was good, but it kind of fell apart around season 5, though the last 2 episodes mostly compensated for that.
Was wondering who they were and wondering why none of the stars were there, but now I realise by looking at the comments section.
Yay! Would've been good if Adventure In Space And Time had won - that was as good, if not better IMO. Graham Norton is so hilarious.
Predictably, the comments section in the video is full of Moffat haters (as usual)
I loved that The Day Of The Doctor won, but if An Adventure In Space And Time had aswell, then we would probably heard the wost wonderful speach about Doctor Who! Yes I'm talking about you, Faith Penhale! How dare u miss out Tom Baker!!!
Wahey! Great news! I'll be honest, I really thought Breaking Bad was going to win this one (a choice I was rooting for ALONG with Day of the Doctor. Choosing which one to vote for was a very tricky choice XD), but at the end of the day, the fans spoke and the winner was the show that's spanned the last 5 decades with it's madman in a blue box, travelling across all of time and space. Congratulations, Doctor Who! :D
I voted, I watched, I applause - very good news , I guess none of the stars could attend as they overseas filming what a shame.
Aww, An Adventure in Space and Time lost out :/ oh well, it's amazing that it was nominated. Congrats to everyone involved.
While I'm happy that Day won, I don't have much respect for the BAFTAs in general the film ones snub a lot of terrific films including her which got no nominations at the BAFTAs this year and the TV ones are worse only nominated the cruddy soaps and never even giving a BAFTA to Matt Smith is a joke. Congrats to Who, but you deserve better than the snobby BAFTAs
Is it just me or does Mark like to sit around with an evil smirk all the time? It's like he's plotting which character he'll kill next! Fantastic news for everyone involved and here's to the 75th anniversary!
Congratulations to Day of the Doctor and to the storytelling genius behind its brilliance, the one and only Steven Moffat! :D
Congratulations Doctor Who!!!! It absolutely deserved this award, despite the strong competition. It was an incredible episode that perfectly payed homage to 50 incredible years and it's great to see the success rounded off with this! :D
Once again, Doctor Who shows their supremacy
Daleks: ALL HAIL DOCTOR WHO, ALL HAIL DOCTOR WHO
Congratulations to Day and I feel so sorry for An Adenture in Space and Time, it deserved it.
Nothing, in my opinion, deserved it more!
A fully deserved award, even if it the least prestigious award (audience voted awards will inevitably favour shows with the most viewers and most committed viewers! A shame nobody more famous came up to collect it, Gatiss was in the audience, surely he could have come up as well!
I was surprised GoT wasn't nominated for the Audience Award again this year. I mean, I'm only on the second series myself, but it's hugely popular across the globe, especially here in the UK. Still though. I'm really happy and proud that 'The Day of the Doctor' won. It truly was a spectacle to behold, and deserves all the praise and success it gets.
I have to be honest, I was rooting for Breaking Bad. I love Doctor Who, and I particularly enjoyed "The Day of the Doctor", but it still didn't quite reach Breaking Bad's level for me. Breaking Bad was the most enjoyable viewing experience I've ever had, from its first season through to its fifth and final one. With that being said, though, "Day" was my second choice, and it really was a tremendous achievement all round, so I'm still really glad it won. It's a shame that "An Adventure in Space and Time" didn't win, though. It really did deserve to.
I understand that Breaking Bad deserves all the awards it has collected and is called the best TV show of the century so far etc. but this is a BRITISH awards show. Firstly, Breaking Bad is American; secondly, Doctor Who has been running for 50 YEARS!!! If that doesn't deserve a BAFTA I don't know what does...
So sad An Adventure didn't win. It deserved it just as much as Day of The Doctor.
@RobertLythgoe Figures... :(
@DawnTime Matt Smith was too busy hobnobbing in Cannes I guess to attend :-)
The room was filled with Doctor Who alumni, nice to Arthur Davill up on stage with the Broadchurch crowd
@Planet of the Deaf Personally I consider audience voted awards to be a lot more prestigious than non-audience voted awards.
@TardisBoy GOT's Season 3 was a huge disppointment imo.
@TardisBoy GoT is my second favourite show, after Doctor Who. The books are great as well.
@GoodYear92 I'd agree with you but Breaking Bad already won one. As much as I love it, it won best international show, which is probably more prestigious than the Audience Award. Let Doctor Who have it's moment of victory!
@GoodYear92 But then as it's not actually on British TV, it would be unlikely to win an audience vote, however much those people who actually downloaded it might have enjoyed it!
@GoodYear92 Breaking Bad is, without doubt, one of the best written TV series in the last 6/7 years. From beginning to end it was a coherent, densely plotted, tightly written, dark, funny emotional rollercoaster! Obviously a completely different show to Who but IF ONLY we could have some of Breaking Bad's........sensibilities. Don't get me wrong, I've loved the Doctor for nearly 40 years and it is head and shoulders my fave programme on TV but it is, by its nature, consistently inconsistent. Breaking Bad was consistently great. I guess I just want a season of Blink, Midnight, Human Nature, Vincent, Dalek, Girl In The Fireplace and Empty Child quality of tales. All that said though, Im glad that for the show's 50th birthday, Day of the Doctor triumphed, albeit in the audience award, in which Who will likely always win.
@The Genie Yeah. The only person who I knew what they looked like was Marcus Wilson. I had no idea what Nick Hurran or Faith Penhale looked like.
In the good old days of Confidential you wouldn't have had this problem. It took me while to recognise them but it's DW's brilliant producer Marcus Wilson and Nick Hurran, the director.
I knew Marcus Wilson and Nick Hurran...no idea who the woman is o.O
@The Genie Marcus Wilson?
@ahunter8056 @Planet of the Deaf The theory is that the judge awarded prizes are chosen by an educated panel, who can use their deep knowledge to make a rational choice, whereas audience voted awards are swayed by which programme has the largest and most fanatical fanbase, but may not have seen the other shows on the shortlist (e.g. me!)
But then it was a disgrace that Day of the Doctor and AAISAT had no nominations elsewhere anyway :-)
@Galax @TardisBoy :O but.......The Red Wedding....The Rains of Castamere!! Stunning in the book and possibly even more stunning in the show!
I'm going to read the books soon. I'm really looking forward to it :D
@GoodYear92 I've already said I don't begrudge Doctor Who winning the award, I just think that Breaking Bad deserved it that little bit more, and that it would have been one hell of an achievement for an American cable show, which was never broadcast on a UK channel to earn the majority of British audience's votes over Doctor Who.
@BazHood @GoodYear92Yup. There was never a dull episode. Some were more outstanding than others, but I never once finished an episode of Breaking Bad disappointed. I love Doctor Who, but you're absolutely right. It is woefully inconsistent at times, often veering from sheer brilliance to complete mediocrity. Thankfully, "Day" was at the former end of the scale, so I don't really begrudge it the award.
@GoodYear92 Well, you can obviously write, so it's a bit strange that you seem unable to read. I said "I love Doctor Who", so quite how that translates to you as me not liking it, I've really no idea.
It is possible to like more than one show at the same time...
Woah, woah, woah. There's no need for that rudeness at all. He's entitled to his opinion, and he never said he doesn't like the show, I know for a fact he loves this show. If you can't accept someone prefers another show to DW and has a different opinion perhaps it's you who needs to leave this site.
@TakeTheType40 @GoodYear92 They never said they don't like Doctor Who.... o.O
Faith Penhale exec producer, Skinner's replacement.
@Galax @BazHood @TardisBoy fairy nuff. I'm addicted to it :) funnily enough, I really enjoyed s3 but I think this current season has gone a bit off the boil (except the Hound and Tyrion)....BUT it's still great TV
@BazHood @Galax @TardisBoy ONE scene ? Out of 300 minutes ? Please. The scene is stunning but it's just a surprising death with abundance of blood. Nothing equal to the beautiful Baelor or the really stunning ending of Blackwater, or even the wonderfully executed Royal Wedding of The Lion and the Rose. Well I know it's just my view but overall the season was just much ado for nothing.
I agree, although the extra scenes in the show are a really nice touch like the Varys/Littlefinger scenes that were never there in the books
@TardisBoy I'm currently reading them now, am on A Clash of Kings. Believe me, if you like the show, the novels are so much better.
@TardisBoy Well, that's always good to hear! I'll try and keep in touch more regularly in future. :)
Your presence has been greatly missed! :)
@doctorwhotvuk Thank you. It has been a while!
@TardisBoy Well I didn't remember exactly what Page looks like...
O__________o she looks nothing like Page...
Ohhh so that's her! Knew her by name but not by face!

Terrapin Puppet Theatre - Shadow Dreams
Terrapin Puppet Theatre and the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra In association with Ten Days on the Island and the Burnie Arts & Function Centre present Shadow Dreams.
A truly unique and inspiring performance by Tasmania's two leading arts companies that takes place simultaneously in two cities, linked by high-speed broadband.
Dale has one life, living on a hill in the bush. Pete has another, living on a hill in the city. Two boys, in two different parts of Tassie, go to bed one night and accidentally have each other's dreams!
You and your children will be amazed and inspired as the orchestra and performers in Hobart interact live with musicians and performers in Burnie. Filmed images, puppets and music will interweave between the spaces in this highly original show.
Graeme Koehne's stunning score complements Finegan Kruckemeyer's story of mystery and friendship in a magic realist, digital puppetry world first.
This program has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its art funding and advisory body, and through Arts Tasmania by the Minister for the Arts.
The Burnie Arts & Function Centre is proud to be partnering with Ten Days on the Island, by including their Burnie programs in the 2013 Subscription Season.

I propose to add a third kind of "vert" to the two standard categories - introverts and extraverts.
That's the "adapted introvert," who masquerades as an extravert at times, and then "re-verts" to introversion when the situation no longer demands it. I know, because I am one, and many of my colleagues in my occupation show the same pattern.
In a thirty-year career as a management consultant, seminar presenter, and conference speaker, I'm often mistaken for an extravert. People ask, "How can you stand up in front of 5,000 people and give an impassioned speech about leadership, and not be an extravert?" The answer is: it's not easy.
Most of the star "motivational" speakers, so far as I've been able to determine, are high-energy extaverts. However, many of the topic experts - people who speak about the future, business strategy, leadership, economics, technology, and organizational performance, seem to be driven by their inner achievement needs, not their needs to connect with other people. They have to get themselves "up" for intensive interactions with others, and when the mission is done they retreat to the comfort of their private interior worlds.
By the way, the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, who pointed out the two patterns, used the term "extraversion," not "extroversion," although both "versions" are commonly used today.

The 5 Best Things We Saw at SXSW Thursday: Killer Mike, Mikal Cronin, Chance the Rapper
See all our best live photos from SXSW 2013 here 5. Chance the RapperGatsby's, 5 p.m. SXSW is full to the brim with "personalities" hoping to score attention, but Chance the Rapper's oddball set at Red Bull's 120 Hours party — curated by Chicago rap blog Fake Shore Drive — felt genuine. Performing after rap-punks Show You Suck, Chance came to the stage wearing a tank top and cut-off jeans, a bouncing ball of twitching energy; his high-pitched, nasally voice and darting flow displaying an idiosyncratic magnetism. Chance's beats, stewed in soul and gospel, emanated a warmth that makes this newcomer seem even easier to love. JORDAN SARGENT4. William Tyler Merge Records Showcase, The Parish, 9 p.m.

The 5 Best Things We Saw at SXSW Wednesday: Paramore, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Earl's Return
See all our best live photos from SXSW 2013 here5. DENIRO FARRAR 119 Club, 9:45 p.m. Wednesday night's rap show at 119 Club was running so far behind schedule that it's possible that headliner ScHoolboy Q just got off stage as you read this. An early bright spot amongst a sea of anonymous faces was North Carolinian rapper Deniro Farrar, who was commanding and charismatic. Shirtless and sporting a blunt cadence, he shares the same appeal of trap stars like Alley Boy and Plies — which makes it interesting that, on record, he raps mostly over beats from cloud-rap weirdos like Friendzone and Ryan Hemsworth. But his set at SXSW was gruff and uncompromising — he spent the majority of it lashing out at rappers for not actually selling coke. JORDAN SARGENT4. DIKES OF HOLLAND Beerland Patio, 5 p.m. Apparently, they do this all day every day.
Justin Timberlake's 'The 20/20 Experience': Our Impulsive Reviews
Justin Timberlake is currently streaming his third album, The 20/20 Experience on iTunes in advance of its Friday release date. Here, seven members of the SPIN braintrust give hasty and completely impulsive opinions...Rob HarvillaHe was creatively spent, justifiably smug, and entirely self-satisfied post-FutureSex, willing to leave the blackjack table at the perfect time as almost no still-alive pop stars are willing to do. But we bitched and bitched and bitched (and made sure his ill-fated Jordan-in-the-minors acting vehicles bombed and bombed and bombed) until he obliged us with the creatively spent, justifiably smug, entirely self-satisfied comeback album we deserve.

The parents of a young actress whose Cheerios commercial inadvertently sparked a heated debate about race in this country said that they welcome the attention their biracial daughter has received, and that they hope to provide a more realistic picture of the American family.
"Being part of a biracial family, it's just the reality," said Christopher Colbert, the father of the six-year-old Grace, on MSNBC Tuesday. "We're also part of the face of America."

"I try not to fight with people anymore. I just say: 'You want to be stupid? You stay stupid. I'm moving forward.'"

A snippet Jane Austen: how medieval!
A rare paper snippet in Jane Austen's handwriting was discovered. Written in 1814, it contains highlights from a sermon held by her brother. Reading the news I was struck by the parallel with similar finds from the Middle Ages. For one thing, in both cases such discoveries raise more questions than they answer. Was there originally more than this? Why did Austen (and her medieval peers) create the tiny note? Why did it lay dormant for so long? The most intriguing question (and parallel) is related to what is actually hidden from view. While the front of the Austen-fragment can be read, the back cannot, because the snippet is pasted onto a larger sheet. Experts are trying to separate the two, hoping to double their understanding. This is as medieval as can be. Strips from medieval books, after all, are frequently found pasted - recycled - on bookbindings. These fragments also provide a tantalizing, albeit one-sided view at a discovered written object from the past.
Read more in this Guardian article, which is also the source of the image. More about medieval snippets pasted onto bookbindings in this post I wrote a while back.

What's in a name? Highland Park 12 Year Old (Old Bottling) whisky is called whisky because it's produced in Scotland. Were it from America it would be spelled Highland Park 12 Year Old (Old Bottling) whiskey, rather than whisky.
Nose: The nose is clean and floral. Notes of creamy manuka honey and a touch of juicy lemon with cream and a well-balanced sweetness.
Palate: The palate is quite full with a pleasant subtlety to the depths. Lurking somewhere in the substratum a grilled orange lies. Notes of granary toast and green tea with jasmine. A touch of sweetness.
Finish: The finish is quite long with peppered spicy and wood shavings.

Service Design
From Insight to Implementation
by Andy Polaine, Lavrans Løvlie & Ben Reason
Some 70% of economic activity in Western economies is in services—from babysitting to banking. Computer and telecommunications technologies have enabled the development of complex service systems that combine personal contact, physical artifacts, websites, and large software systems. Designing these well contributes to the well-being of citizens and to increased competitiveness and efficiency for the companies or public entities that provide them. This book, written by innovative pioneers in the field and based on their extensive experience, is an excellent description of a methodology for managing the complexity of the design of modern services to satisfy the needs of both consumers and providers."—Gillian Crampton Smith, Professor, Iuav University of Venice
We have unsatisfactory experiences when we use banks, buses, health services and insurance companies. They don't make us feel happier or richer. Why are they not designed as well as the products we love to use such as an Apple iPod or a BMW?
The 'developed' world has moved beyond the industrial mindset of products and the majority of 'products' that we encounter are actually parts of a larger service network. These services comprise people, technology, places, time and objects that form the entire service experience. In most cases some of the touchpoints are designed, but in many situations the service as a complete ecology just "happens" and is not consciously designed at all, which is why they don't feel like iPods or BMWs.
One of the goals of service design is to redress this imbalance and to design services that have the same appeal and experience as the products we love, whether it is buying insurance, going on holiday, filling in a tax return, or having a heart transplant. Another important aspect of service design is its potential for design innovation and intervention in the big issues facing us, such as transport, sustainability, government, finance, communications and healthcare.
Service Design is an eminently practical guide to designing services that work for people. It offers powerful insights, methods, and case studies to help you design, implement, and measure multichannel service experiences with greater impact for customers, businesses, and society.
Along with many other insights, this book offers:
- A clear explanation of what service design is and what makes it different from other ways of thinking about design, marketing and business.
- Service design insights, methods and case studies to help you move up the project food chain and have a bigger design impact on the entire service ecosystem.
- Practical advice to help you sell the value of service thinking within your organisation and to clients.
- Ways to help you develop business, design, environmental and social innovation through service design.

Quantum Conundrum Game Show is the craziest thing you'll see today
Iam8Bit and Square Enix has finally revealed the results of their collaboration and it truly does send gamers to far out dimensions.
The Super Dimensional Quantum Learning's (*deep breath*) Problems and Solutions Gametime Spectacular!! is a wacky game show based off Airtight Games' Quantum Conundrum hosted by former G4 personality Kevin Pereira, which … you know what? I have absolutely no idea how to describe this.
Seriously, I watched it three times and I still don't know what was happening. But I do know I'll be picking up some Science Juice the next time I go grocery shopping.
Anyway, I hope you the first episode of The SDQLPSG.
