A Hazy Shade of Winter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"A Hazy Shade of Winter" is a hit song performed by Simon and Garfunkel in the 1960s. It was covered by The Bangles two decades later. This single is about sadness during winter. The Bangles version was released around November 1987. Both versions became major hit singles. In the late 1980s, the Bangles' version surpassed the first version.

All Dressed Up goes to Australia: Day 3
Katie Trotter | March 8, 2013
We are here for one reason - to shoot an eight page fashion editorial for Luxury Magazine with the internationally renowned Australian fashion photographer Simon Upton on the luxury island of Hayman in the Great Barrier Reef. After a long and bumpy boat ride from Hamilton Island we settled into our fantastic sea view rooms and after a minor worry over a misplaced bag we eventually got reconnected with all fourteen suitcases and lighting equipment.
Hayman is pretty close to paradise being the most northerly of the Whitsunday Islands, part of the Cumberland Islands, which are located off the coast of Central Queensland. The only thing worrying us is the fact that the island has a cyclone warning, so our plans to show off the beautiful resort are starting to go up in smoke! Still in high spirits, despite the weather, we soldier on!
Check out our views coming into the private island of Hayman.....
Having had less than six hours sleep of any real kind in the last three days by the time it gets to shoot day- we are exhausted, but all meet for a spectacular breakfast spread at 6am. We are starting in the Diane Von Furstenburg penthouse which is good news as the winds are picking up and the rain seems to be relentless!
Hair and make up starts at 6.30 and takes over two hours as we work on some floral headpieces. We can't wait to show you the results....
Goodbye from the team for now!

Conflict Management and Corporate Culture in the Extractive Industries: A Study in Peru
September 2012
This report aims to build knowledge about how corporate cultures in mining companies influence how well those companies manage conflict with local communities. It is the product of a joint research project undertaken by the Corporate Social Responsibility Initiative at Harvard Kennedy School and the Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining at the Sustainable Minerals Institute of The University of Queensland in Australia.
The IFC Oil, Gas and Mining Linkages Program: The IFC Enhancing the Fabrication Capabilities in the Nigerian Oil & Gas Industry Program
Nigeria spends more than 85 percent of its oil and gas expenditure outside its borders, meaning domestic companies are missing out on major contracts. To help support the growth of engineering firms in Nigeria, the Nigerian and Norwegian governments are helping increase their participation in the country's growing oil and gas industry.
Linkages Highlights: The ACG/BTC Linkages Program

Tripartite declaration of principles concerning multinational enterprises and social policy (MNE Declaration) - 4th Edition
In the 1960s and 1970s, the activities of multinational enterprises (MNEs) provoked intense discussions that resulted in efforts to draw up international instruments for regulating their conduct and defining the terms of their relations with host countries, mostly in the developing world. Labour-related and social policy issues were among those concerns to which the activities of MNEs gave rise. The ILO's search for international guidelines in its sphere of competence resulted, in 1977, in the adoption by the ILO Governing Body, of the Tripartite Declaration of Principles concerning Multinational Enterprises and Social Policy (MNE Declaration).
OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises 2011 Update
The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises are far reaching recommendations for responsible business conduct that 44 adhering governments – representing all regions of the world and accounting for 85% of foreign direct investment – encourage their enterprises to observe wherever they operate. The Guidelines were updated in 2011 for the fifth time since they were first adopted in 1976. This booklet contains the official version of the text, implementation procedures and commentary of the 2011 update.
International Lessons of Experience and Best Practice in Participatory Monitoring in Extractive Industry Projects
In the last decade, extractive companies, project-impacted communities and stakeholders have developed increased skills and knowledge in monitoring procedures. Numerous experiences have raised awareness and supported the assertion that multi-party participation in environmental monitoring provides a unique opportunity to receive timely contributions and feedback which in turn result in the overall improvement of the monitoring process. Better social and environmental monitoring and evaluation contribute significantly to improve relationships, to reduce social tensions, and to the adoption of preventive measures to manage conflicts.
Gender Dimensions of Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining A Rapid Assessment Toolkit
This is intended as an easy-to-use toolkit for understanding men's and women's differentiated access to the resources and opportunities associated with artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) and how they are affected by ASM. The Toolkit was produced by the Oil, Gas, and Mining Policy Unit (SEGOM) of the World Bank, through the generous support of the World Bank's Gender Action Plan.

22 NH areas affected by shutdown
With about 1,000 campsites and an average of five campers expected per site, he said, "that's about 5,000 people that can't come."Closure will affect all the area businesses that depend on these visitors, he said. "All the people that have restaurants, or have gas stations or have little stores are going to be hurt because we're shut down."
Marily Reese, executive director of the National Forest Recreation Association, explained why.
Across the country, "concessionaires" such as Tower bid on contracts to run facilities on federal lands, Reese said. From the fees they collect, they pay the government a certain percentage.
than $200,000 annually. No federal money is spent to run the sites, he said.
"All the trucks, all the equipment is ours. They have nothing to do with it."
Reese said the move is political.
In past shutdowns, she said, national forest campgrounds stayed open even when national parks, which are staffed by federal employees, were closed.
"Some braniac in the administration decided they were going to shut down the concessionaires in the national forests, anybody that was operating a government-owned facility."
Reese said her members, who operate facilities on federal lands across the country, have been getting phone calls from officials telling them they have 48 hours to close. Some have already ceased operations.
"Shutting down a contract is a legal, technical issue," she said. "They have to be instructed by letter that there's a change in that contract."
"Basically, it's a power move," he said. "The Forest Service really didn't want to do this.
Reese called the situation "shameful."
Tower said he's already seen the effects of the government shutdown. Tour buses filled with leaf-peepers have been stopping to use his rest rooms since facilities run by the Forest Service were closed last week.
"That was a whole different thing," he said. "That was an emergency. This is not an emergency.
"My feeling is it's a push to make a lot of people upset," he said. "The more people are upset, the more they're going to go scream to their representatives to get this resolved.
He feels sorry for the other local businesses. "We're a close-knit community," he said. "I always want to see everybody do well. Us closing hurts them."
Tiffany Benna, public affairs officer for the WMNF, left a recorded message that she is "on furlough due to the lapse in federal government funding" and would return messages once funding is restored. An email sent to her prompted a similar response.

Kids with low self-esteem may struggle with their weight as adults.
A British study looked at data on 65-hundred people who were assessed at age 10, and then again at age 30. Children who said they felt worried or anxious more often, or had lower self-esteem were at a greater risk for being overweight or obese by their 30th birthday.
The effect was slightly more prominent in girls than boys.
The study was led by researchers at the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London and published in BMC Medicine.

1/10 Just cuz no effort ever deserves a zero.. Tried to find some art in that song but couldn't. I'm sure it's just me though :|
I worry there's three of me, and each of us is blind.
It's not awesome but It's not rubbish, at all. I will give it a 7/10 and that is quite good, from my standards.
Bastille - Laura Palmer ( I cannot post links yet)
6.5/10 for meowh's Bastille. Nice tune, though I hope the dog is the poster trolling n not from the actual song
8.5/10 Really works for me Amazing lyrics. Must do an acoustic cover of it.

0/10 would not listen again, doesn't do anything for me.
My Radio Broadcast: http://grooveshark.com/#!/dookleeto/broadcast feel free to come and listen
"When we're done, i want that cage...for....reasons."
"Plus you folk have redheads. (sighs.) Redheads."
"Other times you're in and out in five minutes. (clicks tongue.) "Thank you see you next week."
Not into that kind of music,2 much yelling and feels like its on loop, notes wise....
Love Hunters - Love is hell
Some band from my country/town. Singer has a not so good voice but tbh i like the songs and it brings some good memories from 15+ years ago..
Remix of an amazing song performed by Andrews Sisters. The Sisters' version was featured in Bioshock 2 if that interests you
I worry there's three of me, and each of us is blind.
Excuse me, are you saying something? Nah, you can't tell me nothing
And as for your song i liked it, reminds me of a Baseballs band ( "boy" band thats doing covers and all in 60s theme ). So 9/10
Regarding last post i liked the song, feels like a life told trough song, only part i dont liked was its kinda slow So 9/10
Enigma - Why
I loved Enigma since i heard it for the 1st time, simply amazing mix of lyrics ( on some spng they use Pseudo Language ) and surreal music
"We always knew that our rights can only be regained by force and that is why we have chosen the ammunition box instead of the ballot box"
"الامة التي لا تحسن صناعة الموت لا تحسن صناعة الحياة"
8/10. Extremely soothing. Some parts of the song gave me goosebumps.

my only complaint is that there was one little round screw lock missing from the packaging - easily found at the hardware store, though. so, let's begin the praise: the fit and finish of all parts is great, looks very nice, i'd say it looks more expensive than it was. the shipment packaging was really well thought out, absolutely no damage to anything inside the outer box. the storage compartments are bigger than i thought they'd be, so this was a nice surprise - perfect for hiding medium sized organizing baskets inside with room to spare. i think this piece was thoughtfully designed, all the way down to the felt floor protecting pads and the hardware that keeps the storage compartment lids from over-extending. super pleased - would totally recommend it to others.
I was sceptical ordering this table since it was very inexpensive but the quality seems to be good so far - better than anticipated. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a modern coffee table. I received the table within a reasonable time frame- well packaged and in good shape, no scratches or anything. The assembly was fairly easy, even though it took about 2 hours. But the result was great. I'm happy with my purchase!
a sharp, modern table. shipped in one large flat pack. moderately easy construction on par with an ikea product. is not especially heavy so it may move around a hard wood floor if one were to put one's feets on it. that's right i said feets.
I really love this table. I am a young female and put this together in about two hours without any problems. Would definitely reccomend to other people
For the price, this table was better than I expected. I really enjoy the look of this item. I really like the storage space that functions as a table too. That glass piece makes it look a bit more classy, if I do say so myself. Cool stuff.
This black storage coffee table looks quite nice and am proud of my purchase! It did take a little while to put together as others stated (about 2hrs?), but wasn't difficult to put together on my own with a few basic tools. Great place for storage of my boys' school work, and after using our new "homework" table, papers are hidden away quickly. I bought a nice medium weave basket to go between to jazz it up even more! Nice value buy; especially when there is a % off and free shipping! Definitely recommended.
I love this table!! Such a beautiful piece! Little frustrating that the price dropped $$ after my purchase. Still happy with it none the less. Seems built sturdy enough to last through the years. You will need 2 people to piece this together just based on the size.
I am a handy female so it wasn't hard to assemble. I did realize something I didn't read in the directions that could have saved me 30 minutes, Place the lugs in boards with opening facing the hole first so screws easily slide and tighten with no problem. I did the opposite, duh! It is a solid product, it isn't real wood so be careful when handling corners on hard surfaces. It comes with a black marker for to cover dings.
This table is great once put together, HOWEVER, it took 3 people to put it together. Instructions were not that clear.
The table came in a flat box with a bag of alot of parts . Separate everything first to make sure what you have and look over all of it. I like this table it is a lot smaller than my original table . Putting it together is not fun . their are alot of parts and is very overwhelming . I have put together alot of furniture before it is not the hardest but may come secongd to that . If u can complete the task you will be very happy looks great and it grew on me very fast . i love this table . made very well and for the price i guess its good it should be a little cheaper just cause you have to put it togetherr . . all in all it is a great replacement for the one i had and looks great . if you have put furniture together before should be no problem if not good luck you can do it...

Commercial MowingLawn TractorsGarden Tractors
John Deere 3032E Specifications
Strengths Very easy to use, Lots of power for its size.Great machine for the money.I love the quick detach bucket.Seems to get decent fuel economy also.
Weaknesses Only think i can see is i wish you could get a frame attached backhoe.
Overall Great machine. I read several others complained about bucket lift but I have had the rear tires clear off the ground several times and I move 4X4 and 4X5 round bales all the time, guess im just wondering what there trying to move :)
Strengths Great tractor. No problems so far with my tractor.
Weaknesses Frontier rear plow bent easily. Frontier wouldnt cover it even though I only had it a month. John Deere covered it but took over three months to get it back.Dont spend extra to buy implements from John Deere. Buy implements some where else.
Overall Great tractor, slow dealer service.Frontier implements are not worth the money
Strengths Price, Size, easy to handle
Weaknesses It's been in the shop almost three weeks now. PTO doesn't work and John Deere doesn't seem to know how to fix the problem, new switches didn't fix it the first week they came and got it. I have no tractor.
Overall Tractor did a good job the first 11 months now it's been in the shop for almost 3 weeks. Hope this isn't a sign of what I have to look forward to with this tractor. I grandfather was all-ways a Ford and New Holland man. Maybe I should have stayed with what all-ways worked in the past.
Strengths Ease of use, pulling power, simplicity, durability, size vs power
Weaknesses bucket lift capacity, no rear remotes (you can add a kit for about $750)
Overall A great compact tractor for the price. I use it almost everyday to haul dirt, landscape, plow/disk and culitivate a large garden...it is ideal for those small farmers who want to save your back from moving things around
Strengths Superb and surprising power for a smaller tractor (both loader and implements), wonderful ease of handling.
Weaknesses Any weakness I could list would take this tractor out of the economy class, but I'll list them anyway:
1.) No standard cruise control
2.) Needs and air ride seat (you get bounced around a bit on rougher terrain)
3.) Needs telescoping hitch link arms
These don't affect the performance of the tractor at all, but they're frills that I wouldn't mind having.
Overall Overall, this tractor and the 3038E are the best values in compact tractors on the market. Best bang for the buck by far!
Weaknesses THE 3032E IS A CUSTOMER SPECIFIC TRACTOR, FRONT MOUNTED IMPLEMENTS (SNOW BLOWERS, BROOMS, ETC.) AND MID MOUNT MOWERS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE. THE 305 LOADER IS BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR THE 3E SERIES AND IS STRIPPED DOWN IN COMPARISON TO THE C/CX MODELS. IT'S A BOLT ON LOADER AND CAN'T BE PARKED.
Overall GOOD TRACTOR FOR THE PRICE. A GREAT ADDITION TO THE 3000 SERIES FROM JOHN DEERE.
Strengths It has plenty of power for a 5 foot bush hog, and a 5 foot tiller, even in thick tough conditions. It's easier to operate than the 790 tractor. The cruise control is handy for cutting large areas. Loader works surprisingly well for a small tractor.
Weaknesses Can't put a bellymower on it, or a backhoe. In my case I don't need them.
Overall Nice simple tractor. Not much fancy electronic stuff to tear up. It's smooth and easy to operate. My wife and I both use it several times a week.
Strengths Powerful Yanmar 32 hp. Ability to use all 5 foot implements. Loader controls easy to use.
Weaknesses Loader Lift capacity. Unable to have belly or mid-mount mower.
Overall I could not see spending the same or more for another brand. It's price and power will be hard to beat.

It's difficult to overstate the petulance of our president. In his latest news conference, Obama took credit for every perceived good and blamed Republicans for every perceived bad. He blasted Congress for going on vacation, as he was leaving for his on Martha's Vineyard. Between golf and fundraising, I'm surprised he has time for vacation.
Currently, ISIS is on the march in Iraq; border wars rage; Mexico holds a U.S. Marine; and Syria, Gaza/Israel, Afghanistan, Libya and Ukraine are theaters of war with escalating violence. They are not really "theaters" of war, anymore; they are more like a multiplex of war.
So what diversion does Obama dangle as bait before his media at his final news conference before they vacation together? With his CIA caught snooping on senators, he changes the topic to his favorite "Blame Bush" theme by leaking a CIA document on torture.
Now the discussions go from CIA spying on senators, Benghazi, IRS targeting of political opponents, deficits, a jobless recovery, Obamacare lies and NSA spying on U.S. citizens to an old game of semantics: Did the Bush administration's CIA "torture" terrorists?
The "torture" issue was well behind us. But Obama has effectively accused Bush of war crimes, thus again deeming his political foes enemies of the state.
In my view, we need to find out who leaked this memo and hire a friendly, but tough, foreigner to strap the leakers to a board and pour water on their faces until they say they are sorry. It sounds like a job for Liam Neeson.
We mostly waterboarded Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the 9/11 mastermind and evil-genius bomb builder. He's been in the Camp Gitmo prison 10 years and has won the Guantanamo Science Fair eight times. So what if we took this terrorist somewhere and waterboarded or subjected him to "enhanced interrogation"? Either way, the information helped us get Osama bin Laden, for which Obama, hypocritically, was eager to take credit.
Never have unrepentant incompetence and epic narcissism melded so seamlessly in one president.
After 9/11, George W. Bush felt that we had two choices. The first was to grab the guys who knew about it and interrogate them to get to the leaders. That was the right choice. The other was to invade and bomb Afghanistan and Iraq back to the Stone Age. That set those places back about a month, and it was the wrong decision.
Obama's unnecessary and blunt statement that we engaged in "torture" will just further inflame the Arab world and give its extremists more reason to fight.
Waterboarding is not torture. Yes, it's a really unpleasant experience I'd prefer not to endure, but so were the first five years of Obama's presidency.
Obama wants to shut down Gitmo, but his naiveté has been exposed. What is he going to do with all those ruthless terrorists? He has run out of U.S. deserters to trade for them. Since they are "not that bad," maybe New York liberals will be OK with assimilating them into the New York City cab driver program.
We can go with the instincts of Obama and his dolt sidekick Joe Biden, who prefer second-guessing their predecessors to making any tough decisions. Or we can go with Dick Cheney. When it comes to making tough choices for our safety, I'm with the guy who shot the lawyer in the face.
Terrorists who hated us in 2001 for our prosperity and liberty will, after President Obola is through with our country, have to find other reasons to hate us.
He said he was going to "fundamentally transform" the country. We gave Obama the United States of America, and he is giving us back Chicago.

Vince McMahon posted a picture of himself in the gym on Twitter.
Now that she has given birth, Taryn Terrell has started working out, in order to get in shape for wrestling again.
Since he has one of the most impressive physiques in professional wrestling, an industry filled with well toned bodies, Scott Steiner has been asked for years about his workout program, so the former WCW star released a fitness DVD, which teaches beginning, intermediate and advanced level people.
On February 22, OMEGA Championship Wrestling is doing a live event in Smithfield, North Carolina. Matt Hardy and Shane Helms will be headlining the event as a tag team. Gunner, Christian York and Reby Sky have all been announced for the show as well.
"Hey WWE I'm not trying to be rude but the crowd seems to really want Daniel Bryan. Juuuuuuust MAFAKIN Saying!! Geez. Sadly WWE is still run by 'Muscle Marks.' It is what it is folks."
- Shane Helms on backstage politics in WWE
A big triple threat match featuring Matt Hardy, Shane Helms and Mr Anderson, all of whom are former WWE stars, has been booked for an independent wrestling show in Wisconsin this upcoming Saturday night.
Former WWE stars Shane Helms and Carlito were down in South America together. An incident took place at the airport, which led to Helms mocking Carlito.
Devon posted a picture of himself and Shane Helms on Twitter.
Shortly after his release from WWE, Kassius Ohno has already been booked for a show in a week against Shane Helms.
Shane Helms playfully taunted Al Snow about not being given a private dressing room at an independent wrestling show.
Shane Helms has been seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. The former WWE star was charged with driving under the influences by a police officer who showed up at the scene. Helms suffered a variety of injuries, and his girlfriend broke her neck as well.
Chris Benoit shocked the wrestling world when he was able to win the Royal Rumble and earned himself a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania. He was successfully able to eliminate the Big Show to win the match.

Bobby Mair: Off Meds
Wobbling onto the stage in a frighteningly shaky way, Bobby Mair is funny just to look at. Thankfully when he speaks it only gets better.
His show is entitled Off Meds, and it is highly possible that Mair is just that, but shouldn't be. He is the first to admit he can easily be mistaken for a crazy homeless crackhead, as he struggles to hold the microphone in one place in front of him. He trips over his words and has an alarmingly up-and-down gait to his speech. One minute quiet the next minute almost shouting, it really adds to his presence.
He uses the bizarre happenings of his everyday life and turns them into knockout material. This is standard practice maybe but Mair brings something extra to the table. He has extraordinary views to share and isn't afraid to get dark. The audience lap it up like the dogs that his grandfather used to fantasise over... it's that kind of show. Definitely not suitable for children and barely suitable for many adults, you would think, but the reaction in the room suggests otherwise.
Mair is all over the place on stage, visibly shaking and twitchy. He exudes a winning sense of unpredictability, too, the sense that he could say anything at any time.
It doesn't feel like an act and it never feels threatening, just funny. When delivering his mixture of quickfire one-liners and well rehearsed routines, it comes out completely naturally. He isn't waiting for the timing to happen to him. He is making the timing his bitch. Any jokes that slip under the radar or over the heads of the attentive crowd are quickly dismissed before he moves on to the next one. There is always a massive laugh just dying out or just about to start up.
But no matter what he says, like all great comics it's the delivery that makes it worth listening to. Bobby Mair is rare in his ability to keep the audience completely captivated and fascinated, waiting for his next line with expectation. He's a real comic talent.

Saw him support Doug Stanhope at Leicester Square, very good, brought the crowd back up after a surreal music act before and had great material. Would very much like to see more of him soon.
Billy Mac - 13/12/2011
Saw him support Jerry Sadowitz at the Gala theatre Durham a month or so ago. Some good material but appeared really nervous. Maybe suporting a legend like Jerry would do that to the best of them.

Indeed, your journalists' writing is very illogical when it goes about the geography names too. You already prefer to write Moldova, Belarus, Chisinau, and Almaty instead of Soviet era names Moldavia, Byelorussia, Kishenev and Alma-Ata. Please explain why do you still insist on old names for the Ukrainian towns?
On top of this, your style checkers do not work at all, as e.g., it is the case in the Christmas issue, - you published two articles referring to the same city under two names.
Following the official spellings would just to the job.

Congress may have passed legislation for American healthcare with the wrong legislation for the right reason. The Senate passing the "health insurance reform" will be claimed, and rightly so, as a political victory. Maybe the political reality prevented the President from pressing for real health care reform. However, from an academic and practical point of view, the bill will increase the revenue for health insurance firms with negligible improvement in the life of the American people.
What America does with healthcare is of great interest globally. As I presented at the Challenges in Healthcare Conference, hosted by the Dubai School of Government, mandating health insurance would not necessary improve access or quality of health care. Middle and low income populations will still lack access and/or treatment delays due to their high deductibles, co-payments and the affordability of drugs. In addition, other factors are important such as the availability of reliable health facilities and reliable public transportation to such facilities. The current healthcare bill could be a step in the right direction if it treats health insurance as a "public utility,"
I was quite taken by a response letter in your December 19th. issue from a Mr.David Williams in Warwick Warwickshire ("Facts to Digest at Christmas"). I am very interested in his topic and was wondering if there might be some way to contact him. Can you help me with this or is that not allowed? If you cannot, then maybe you would pass along my E-mail address to him with a request that he contact me at his convenience. His thesis is also mine and I am doing feasibility work in an effort to launch a buisness based on exactly his work. Thanks for your consideration and help.

Re: heaters in hybrids
I am the owner of 2 Priuses. If they are operating correctly, the internal combustion engine will turn on during the first few miles of driving to bring it up to a normal operating temperature. It will then alternate with the electric motor. Gas mileage goes down because of this in the winter. I've found that my cars heat up nicely in the winter and keep me warm and the windshields ice-free within a couple of miles. Of course, I live in the rather temperate Washington DC area, not Montana.
ON Powering the Drive - Electric car makers (indeed the hybred makers as well) have one serious additional problem to address; heating the vehicle cabin in cold weather. My Son drove a Toyota Prius (a company car) around town for an hour last week when the temperature was -2 F. He was a frozen man when he finished; the gas engine never kicked on so the cabin was never heated. I telephoned several local car dealers (including the local Toyota dealer) and asked them how to heat the car cabin when the gas engine was not running. The answer was dead silence or unknowing stuttering. Electric cars are NOT usable in Northern climates until the cabin is easily heated. John M. Shontz, Helena, Montana
Does Mr Inzulsa want Honduras to end the persecution or prosecution of his fellow socialist, Mr. Zelaya? I sure he wants impunity for the real constitutional crimes this man perpetrated. The Honduran crisis began much earlier than june 28th. One date I can cite is January 25th, when Mr. Zelaya was almost succesful in pushing a technical coup d'etat against the other two branches of power by trying to forcefully inject some of his gang into the supreme court right at the end of the nomitating and electing process of the magistrates. Why doesn't Commrade Inzulsa speak of this?
Bruno and Hans,
Good points about direct democracy. Yes the UK needs it but does it know it?
On Honduras - what Mr. Insulza doesn't say is that the OAS took Zelaya's side without giving an opportunity and listen to the rest of Hondurans. They never informed themselves about all the dialogs and other efforts made by Hondurans before June 28th to try to solve this crisis caused by Zelaya and his supporters. Zelaya was informed in multiple occasions and by all means that what he was doing was against the law. At no point there has been any need for restoration of democracy in Honduras. We have a democratic government, according
Arias' role was unfortunate and ineffective. He did not mediate, he tried to impose.
I'm an ordinary lower middle class Honduran citizen, I don't understand OAS and ALBA politics, but I understand that no even the President of my country can be above the law. He placed himself above the law and he must face justice. He was arrested and immediately released in Costa Rica. That is no persecution. That is a privilege no other Honduran citizen has ever had. That is no persecution. He entered the country illegally and he confined himself in the Brazilian embassy. That is no persecution either.

By cultural clouds, I'm talking about the new layer of the human cultural stack we're busy laying down as a by product of all our social and creative activities in the inofverse. […]
These new cultural clouds appear in the ever growing collections of crowdsourced collectively or socially accumulated judgements, cultural products, knowledge, history, relationships, etc., encoded in the form of managed digital information. […]
Socially collected, digital, reified human cultural products and judgements are a new *type* of commons. I think they're a new type of resource, brought forth largely by the cognitive surplus we enjoy. And as profound technological permeation and ubiquitous computing bring on the age of everyware, the cloud commons will grow (and fragment / specialize / multiply?).
Who and what will govern the new cloud commons? How will we define and manage these resources?
22 September 2008
Cultural clouds: a new kind of commons?
Joe Lamantia, a New York-based user experience and information architecture consultant, has a very good blog which now also contains a worthwhile article on the emergence of cultural clouds as the newest kind of public commons.

CHARLESTON, S.C. — When an opportunity arose for a quick trip to Charleston, it took all of three seconds for me to jump at the chance. I've read glowing dispatches from friends and colleagues for years about the beauty of the area and its vigorous entertainment scene. When I started to research this coastal city, however, it was the Civil War-era attractions that proved most compelling. The war "started" here when Confederate forces forced Union troops from Fort Sumter in April 1861 and the city has a storied 19th-century history, with a long list of monuments, mansions, plantations and museums to go with it.So I scheduled my trip and designed an itinerary that would take me to four or five attractions per day. The tour of elegant homes and cobblestone streets, period antiques and marble shrines was an excursion through the histories of prominent families and institutions. The guides were gracious; the structures, beautifully maintained. But everything seemed so pristine, so contained. Where were the stories and the artifacts that acknowledge the inhumanity of slavery or the social failures of Reconstruction?I visited cemeteries, plantations and city mansions, museums and national parks and soon discovered that those narratives exist — at some of the same places where antebellum silver gleams. You may have to read beyond the first few lines of description in the guidebooks to find experiences that acknowledge slavery and its legacy, but without them, the city's story is incomplete. My real Charleston journey began where history, tradition, movie-worthy scenery and cataclysm converge: Magnolia Cemetery. Founded in 1849, it is on the National Register of Historic Places. I walked the grounds for an hour without seeing another visitor. Amid trees draped with Spanish moss, pedestrian bridges over quiet ponds and family plots with 19th-century tombstones that recall the sad mysteries of multiple infant deaths, "tranquility" was the word that came to mind until I walked to a memorial surrounded by several graves of men who died during the war. Many of the small tombstones had been decorated with small Confederate flags. In fact, more than 2,000 Civil War veterans are buried at Magnolia, and those rebel flags invite contemplation of their history and their symbolism.Next, I visited Drayton Hall, an 18th-century plantation home noted for its Georgian-Palladian architecture. Guidebooks usually make the distinction that Drayton, a National Historic Landmark, has been preserved, not restored. Because of that, the rooms were devoid of furniture and accouterments; some of the walls were most recently repainted in the 19th century. The emptiness was startling at first, but it certainly focused my attention on Drayton's authenticity. (The impressive website www.draytonhall.org includes a timeline of the Drayton family and the African-Americans who served them, many of them as slaves; others, domestic employees after slavery was abolished.) I found the most moving acknowledgment of slavery on the plantation in a quiet wooded area — an African-American cemetery that, the website says, is "the final resting place of at least 40 individuals, enslaved and free." A wrought-iron arch with the words "Leave 'Em Rest" stands at the entrance, but there are few markers otherwise. Nearby Magnolia Plantation tells a different story. The original plantation home at Magnolia burned in the 1790s. A second home was burned in 1865; official literature points a finger at Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman's "renegade Union troops." After the Civil War, the Rev. John Grimke Drayton dismantled a nearby summer home and had it reconstructed on the footprint of the burned-out plantation house and agreed to open the extensive gardens to paying visitors. The home was expanded over the decades, and today the public can tour 10 rooms, furnished with family artifacts, quilts and antiques. If Drayton Hall is stately and austere, Magnolia is approachable and rambling — a larger version of your great-grandparents' farm home that your relatives tried to update in the 1930s, '40s and '50s. Historical-minded visitors sometimes grumble about Magnolia's petting zoo (not exactly part of the original setup), and some tour guides who don't emphasize (or even mention) the slaves who kept the place and its family together. (My guide briefly referenced the slave population.) But five years ago, Magnolia began a series of tours that focus on a group of restored cabins, most built to house slaves and domestic workers, that acknowledge the different eras of the occupants, starting with 1850 and running through 1969.Another afternoon I visited two institutions that surely must exist at opposite ends of some sort of cosmic spectrum: the Old Slave Mart Museum and the Confederate Museum, just a 10-minute walk apart. In 1856, Charleston passed a ban on the public sale of enslaved African-Americans; the transactions then moved indoors to several sales rooms, or marts. Today, what is now known as the Old Slave Mart Museum is, according to a municipal website, considered the state's only known building used as an auction gallery still in existence.Bare of memorabilia, the small two-story structure is full of text-heavy wall panels devoted to various chapters in the horrific saga of domestic slavery. The juxtaposition of the exhibits in the space and its past unsettled me. By contrast, the Confederate Museum is chock-full of memorabilia: a lock of Robert E. Lee's hair (attached to a signed, framed letter), baby clothes, furniture, oil portraits, buttons, rosters of Confederate soldiers, Confederate money, Confederate flags and snippets of flags, baskets, buttons, rifles, bayonets, swords and a greenish-gray frock coat worn by Samuel Tupper Hyde, who was 17 years, 8 months old when he died in a battle on Morris Island in Charleston Harbor on July 18, 1863.It's a strange, cluttered place — a perverse curiosity shop — run by the Daughters of the Confederacy and crammed to the gills. And here's the strangest juxtaposition of all: The collection is housed in an 1841 Greek Revival building that sits atop the Charleston City Market, where the vendors include African-American men and women who sell one of the most iconic souvenirs of the Charleston area: sweet grass baskets, a craft introduced to the area in the 17th century by enslaved people from West Africa.At many other of Charleston's attractions the back story was just as fascinating — or troubling — as the official literature. The Aiken-Rhett House, for example, an impressive structure, was once owned by William Aiken Jr., a rice planter and governor as well as one of the largest slaveholders in the state.It is this tangled history that lingers once a trip to Charleston is concluded and the memories of fine food and historic preservation have faded.

First Listen
Beacon "The World is Quiet"
- Words: Cam Curran
Color-drenched, tropical-tinged dance music inspired by the likes of UK funky stalwarts DVA and Roska seems to be making its way back into the fold, as evidenced by this gritty jam from British producer Beacon. With a new three-tracker set to drop on Four40, Beacon offers up non-EP cut "The World Is Quiet," a paranoid and skittering production buoyed by ascending kettle tones and a nefarious, creeping synth line. The beginning of the tune reminds us strongly of the work of Hessle Audio's Joe ("Untitled" and "Grimelight" in particular), hissing ominously as the beat builds into a shuffling furor. The Freakin' U EP will be released via Four40 in the coming weeks, available exclusively on Beatport for the first two weeks and followed by a limited run of colored vinyl a month later. You can stream a preview of Beacon's forthcoming EP after the jump.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - Two crashes in two days, both involving squad cars, send law enforcement officers and drivers to area hospitals with minor injuries.
The first crash was on Saturday, October 13th. A state trooper, responding to a call, was involved in a crash on State Road 82 and Veronica Shoemaker Boulevard.
"People are very isolated in their vehicles. They're in their own world and there's almost nothing else around them," said Sheriff Mike Scott.
Sunday morning, October 14th, a similar situation at Veronica Shoemaker and Winkler. A car collided with a Lee County deputy who was responding to an emergency call. The deputy stopped and activated the siren before entering the intersection, but the other vehicle continued on and the two cars collided.
"Sometimes it's difficult. I think the confusion arises when there's a busy intersection and they're not sure where to go," said Sheriff Scott.
Drivers say the inability to see where the sirens are coming from causes much of the confusion.
"Intersections are used for text messaging, phoning, talking, distractions," said Ft. Myers resident, John Guerrero.
"The other day it happened right here, you heard the sirens going, but you couldn't see them. There's so much traffic on the road you can't see," said Ft. Myers driver, Loretta Young.
A scary thought when lives are on the line.
"Imagine if your loved one was the one in a cardiac situation or something. Literally seconds and minutes mean lives and people are out there in their own little world just sort of in a fog, clogging up the intersection." Scott said.
You can be cited for failing to yield or stop for an emergency vehicle. It's considered a "moving violation" and can get yourself a ticket with a fine of $153, plus points on your license if your actions result in a crash.

CFD assists LTVFD at electrical fire in garage
Chesterton firefighters assisted the Liberty Township Volunteer department
at a tricky little garage fire on Wednesday.
The call came in, at 5:43 p.m., as an arcing electrical panel in an attached
garage in the 800 block of Tanner Drive, Capt. Tony Coslet told the
Chesterton Tribune today.
And arcing it was. Although the fire itself was "minimal" and firefighters
managed to contain it to the immediate area around the breaker box,
firefighters were unable actually to get into the wall to check for
extension due to continual arcing caused by the live current, Coslet said.
Firefighters were forced to use a dry chemical extinguisher until a NIPSCO
crew arrived at the scene to pull the meter, Coslet noted. Then an
application of water duly doused it.
"It could have been a good working fire," Coslet added.
The CFD cleared the scene at 7 p.m.
The LTVFD is investigating the cause. No estimate of damage or further
information was available this morning.
