A trip to Cancun
A distinguished former NBA referee, Ed Rush, who was the PAC 12 Coordinator of Officials just resigned. Rush's resignation comes after reports of a challenge to his officials to place a technical on Arizona Head Coach Sean Miller and the charge came with an incentive of $5,000.00 or a trip to Cancun. The challenge was repeated within a span of 24 hours.
As chance would happen during the conference tournament Coach Miller was given a technical in a game versus UCLA. Arizona lost the game 66-64. At the time of the technical the comments Rush made were not published but Miller and many observers thought the call by the referee was in error. Miller's response did not qualify as an action that would require a technical. In fact, all he said was, "he touched the ball, he touched the ball, he touched the ball", referring to the action by the defender to nullify the refs' call of a double dribble. Replay of the call verifies the coach was correct.
To Coach Miller's credit he had not received a technical the entire year. During his press conference he acknowledged as much and reiterated the play as he and many others saw it. Miller was reprimanded by the PAC 12 and fined $25,000.00. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Now with all of the information that has surfaced the PAC 12 should withdraw their reprimand and fine. After that an investigation should begin to restore the integrity of the league. There are questions that need to be answered. Why did Rush feel the need to have a technical called on Miller? Are there any other circumstances in which a bounty was given or promised? How many games have been influenced by referees intentionally making incorrect calls? Is the PAC 12 exclusive in this type of behavior?
In so many instances administrators have chosen rather to cover up as oppose to clearing up, cleaning up and correcting.
From Kevin Ward to Mike Rice
What a week for college sports! From the upsets in the NCAAs to Louisville's Kevin Ward's horrific bone breakage in his leg to the video of Rutgers Basketball coach Mike Rice throwing balls, and physically and verbally abusing his players in practice, it was a week to remember. Louisville and Ward will be remembered for their camaraderie and how much they truly cared for each other. Whereas Rutgers will be remembered for how little they care about the student-athlete and how much they care about protecting the authority figures of the school.
The Rutgers situation is so disturbing on so many levels. Coach Rice's outbreak was not an isolated incident, according to reports it had been going on for two years. During that time period, a couple of players transferred to other schools. When the Athletic Director, Tim Pernetti was shown the incriminating evidence of the coach's actions he chose to give a small suspension, a monetary fine and anger management classes. The AD's actions were so insensitive to the plight of the players it bordered on a cover-up for a coach who by any sane account should be dismissed. The AD later said the decision not to fire the coach was made with full knowledge and agreement of the board.
When the suspension, fine and classes were levied on the coach of the second most popular sport at the school, the president of the school, Robert Barchi either chose not to view the evidence or thought it was not worthy of anything more than the penalties given by the AD. In either case it was a negligence of duty. In lieu of the Penn State case all authority figures of learning should be on high alert for scandal.
Initially, the coach was not dismissed but after the airing of the video he was fired within a day. Now, the AD has resigned basically taking one for his alma mater and the President of the school is subject for termination. If the president would be asked to resign it would not come as a big surprise because his decision making in this particular instance was extremely flawed. If Rutgers decides to keep him the school risk losing its status in the community and nationally as an institution that puts its most valuable asset, the students first.
The coach's blatant abuse of authority was akin to scenarios described in battered women syndrome and we are now seeing the effects of blind obedience shown in pledging situations. The abused in all of these situations find themselves submitting to the authoritative person. Sometimes it is out of fear, sometimes it is out of commitment, sometimes it is out of just embarrassment of not knowing what to do when they are humiliated, but whatever the reason those people are victims of the worse kind of intimidation. Fortunately, this situation was on tape, how many more similar situations are not on tape and how many administrators have ignored this kind of abuse in favor of the appearance of the school and career of an abuser?

Local fans often debate the most heartbreaking moment in Buffalo sports history and two events usually rise to the top – "Wide Right" and "No Goal." Nights of tossing and turning in bed while trying to reinvent history leads to self-induced insomnia. Eventually a tired reality seeps back in for a championship-starved city.
"No Goal" of course refers to the 1999 Stanley Cup where the Sabres were beaten by the Dallas Stars and those sometimes foolish men in striped shirts with whistles dangling around their necks. It was during triple overtime in Game Six when Brett Hull slapped the game-winning puck by legendary Buffalo goaltender Dominik Hasek even though Hull's skate was clearly inside the goal crease.
Eight years before that travesty, "Wide Right" was playing out in Super Bowl XXV between the Bills and the New York Giants. Definitely in the discussion of football's all-time greatest games, the contest and the events surrounding it were the inspiration behind author Adam Lazarus's 2011 book, "Super Bowl Monday."
I've probably watched this game on DVD at least 20 times over the years and feel confident enough that I have a fairly solid grasp on what occurred during those four quarters. Lazarus – a member of the Pro Football Writers of America – reminded me of the many fascinating stories that led up to the game and uncovered many I didn't recall.
This was a Super Bowl that nearly wasn't played. Then NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue was under a lot of pressure to cancel the game due to the ongoing Gulf War and the involvement of the United States in Operation Desert Storm just weeks prior. Lazarus noted that Tagliabue's predecessor, Pete Rozelle, went to the grave thinking he made the wrong decision in having football games played just two days after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Luckily for football fans all over the world, including those serving in the Gulf that watched the game on closed circuit television, Tagliabue realized the Super Bowl needed to be played at all costs. Heightened security in and around the stadium kept many on the edge of their seats as did the action on the field.
With the tragic death of Whitney Houston last weekend still fresh in our minds it was with sadness that I read the author's account of her singing of the National Anthem that January 27, 1991 day.
Lazarus writes, "Dressed in a white sweatsuit with a touch of red and blue fabric, Grammy Award-winning singer Whitney Houston stood atop a small wooden platform. And over the next one minute and fifty-five seconds, Houston delivered the most graceful, inspiring, goose bump-inducing rendition of the "Star Spangled Banner" of all time."
It will always be my most lasting image of Houston.
Many expected the game to be a blowout, especially with the way the Bills had marched into the game following a 55-3 win over the Los Angeles Raiders in the A.F.C. championship game. The Giants crept into the game with a 15-13 win over the two-time defending Super Bowl champion San Francisco 49'ers in the N.F.C. title game. Kicker Matt Bahr accounted for all of New York's points with five field goals.
Buffalo's K-Gun (hurry-up) offense versus New York's vaunted defense led by Lawrence Taylor and Carl Banks. Marv Levy, the Harvard-educated Bills coach who recited poetry during team meetings, versus "The Big Tuna" Bill Parcells and a young defensive wizard named Bill Belichick.
The game really had everything, including five lead changes. The one thing it was lacking and it makes me wonder if this will ever happen in a Super Bowl again was turnovers. There wasn't one turnover in Super Bowl XXV – truly amazing.
What didn't work in this book was the way Lazarus recalls specifics of game action in this contest, but then diverts the reader's attention to other great moments in the Super Bowl history that don't always connect with the main subject matter. For example as part of his Super Bowl Flashback sidebars, the author talks about Super Bowl XVII and one of the game's heroes, John Riggins of the Washington Redskins. The running back reflects on his experiences in that win over the Miami Dolphins, but I'm not sure I see the connection with the Bills-Giants game.
Later in the book, Lazarus uses this same flashback technique with Baltimore Colts kicker Jim O'Brien talking about his team's win in Super Bowl V. Here it works because O'Brien booted the game-winning field goal with seconds remaining while Scott Norwood didn't in Super Bowl XXV, so there's a direct correlation between the lives of those two players.
Which takes us back to Norwood's "Wide Right." I still remember Lynn Swann interviewing the kicker outside the losing Buffalo locker room after the game and feeling so bad for the guy. Lazarus writes about how all the Bills players and coaches defended him following the miss. Lazarus writes in detail of how even in defeat, 30,000 Bills fans made it to Niagara Square in subfreezing temperatures to cheer on their team a few days after the game.
Lazarus writes, "The rally, scheduled for 3 p.m., was just about to commence when a new chant – "We Want Scott, We Want Scott" – started then billowed into a full-fledged deafening roar." This is the antithesis of how Boston Red Sox fans treated Bill Buckner following the 1986 World Series. It would take a couple world championships for the Beantown faithful to forgive him.
"Super Bowl Monday" is a good read for football fans, especially those that root for the game's two combatants. If you're old enough to remember the game, it will bring you back to another time and if you're too young, this is your chance to read up on one of the best ever. Now if you're a Bills fan, sleepless nights surely await you.

We are excited to announce our 2013 workshop schedule this coming Friday, November 23rd at 9am Eastern Time (our Pre-Launch Sale kicks off Thursday, November 22nd at 9pm Eastern Time. If you'd like to sign up for that, please click here.). We have some great locations and projects set up this year, and I trust you will find the perfect option. So the question then becomes: when and where will I get to meet you? You may think that depends on where you live; however, I have seen people travel from great distances to workshops for many different reasons. Some come for the location, and others for the project. What will make you travel? Let's see what the workshops have to entice you…
I'm not going to give away locations or dates yet, so you can just have some fun with the general feel of each workshop. I guess this is an exercise in intuition. Feel into the short descriptions below and see what resonates. This may not be the class you end up attending, but then again,it just might be. So, in no particular order, here are some details to get you moving.
Option #1. Do you like to fly fish? Have you always dreamed of standing beneath beautiful mountains with a river rushing by, fly rod in hand? The feeling of water flowing past your feet as you wade into the cool mountain river is just enough to take off the edge of the summer heat. The sounds of summer surround you and you find yourself drifting off to a place of calm and comfort. Not a bad way to start or end a workshop experience. In fact, with this location, you can walk from your tent and cast your fly into the river at the end of each and every day if you like. You can also always hike in the beautiful countryside or take a little extra time to make it to some of this countries most picturesque mountains.
Option #2. If you enjoy the art and craft (and flavor!) of a good microbrew, consider attending this workshop where there are at least three breweries in town, not to mention many well respected vineyards. I suppose you could arrange a wine tour one day, a brewery tour another, and then spend the rest of your free time floating the river (or taking a jet boat tour if you prefer speed!). Want a little more culture than just beer, wine and rivers? You got it. A world renowned Shakespeare theatre or perhaps an acclaimed music festival should fit the bill. Both are available to you here. Oh, and beautiful nature…yeah, we got that too.
Option #3. Speaking of nature, perhaps that is your focus. Maybe you live in a city or are somehow isolated from nature more than you care to be. If that's the case, then spending your "working vacation" somewhere that offers stunning natural beauty and many different ways to enjoy it could be just the thing for you. Walking trails, riding stables, swimming, lake fishing, a zoo, paddle boats, tennis, miniature golf and 4 other golf courses are all within a short distance of the workshop site. You can also take in a bit of American history on this trip as well.
Option #4. Do you like Bald Eagles? If you do, I bet you would enjoy visiting an area with one of the largest Bald Eagle populations in the United States. A set of binoculars might be a good idea on this workshop. That's not all you'll see in this beautiful part of the country. With gorgeous rolling hills, picturesque scenery, and old community/family farms, this is like taking a trip back in time to when life was more simple and humble. Travel to one of the largest lakes in the US for a day (or more) of fun or visit what National Geographic named one of the best worldwide travel destinations of 2012. Lots of options for enjoyment here.
Option #5. Want to help build an EcoCenter that supports teaching our children the importance of living a healthy and Green life? I have something even better for you. You can build that EcoCenter along side some of the youth that will benefit from it. I have reserved a few spots in this workshop for young adults from AmeriCorps. They will stay on after the workshop and finish the EcoCenter. Talk about working side by side with community! The site has two lakes where you are welcome to fish or canoe and for even more recreation, there are mountain bikes and mountain boards to explore the countryside on. In close proximity to the job site, on the same property, there is a garden/farm and a 10,000 sq. ft. national Disaster Assistance Center that ships disaster kits to sites around the country. If you want to help build community and be a part of something bigger than yourself, this is the place for you. If you'd prefer not to camp, no worries, there are several cabins as well as tree houses that you can rent on site!
Option #6. Art. Desert. Mountains. History. That may be all I need to say for some. This incredible part of our country is home to some of the most prolific artists whom are influenced and inspired everyday by the stunning desert/mountain landscapes that surround them. There is even a world famous museum nearby that pays homage to one of the greatest desert artists of all time.Water may be hard to find in this part of the world, but culture is not. There are several cultures in this region that have grown together over time and created a special experience for anyone who visits here. For a taste of history, you can walk through buildings that have been continuously inhabited for over 1000 years. If you like Native American culture and history, you will love this workshop location. Nearby is "the only living Native American community designated both a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and a National Historic Landmark." Like I said: Art. Desert. Mountains. History.
Option #7. If you prefer cities, you may like this workshop which is located just thirty minutes from the state capitol. Even though it is close to a larger city, the workshop site is in a beautiful area with scenic views of an incredible mountain range and is surrounded by rolling, pastoral farmlands. Take an evening or two to explore the nearby capitol city or drive an extra hour to visit one of the most famous coastal cities in the United States. With a large lake only 10 minutes away, there are many beautiful hikes to be taken and lots of water fun available. It's the best of both worlds: city life in a state capitol and country living in the pastural farmlands surrounding the job site.

It's sometimes possible to bring kids with you to the class. It depends on the host and the location, but it can be done. You would need to have someone to watch the youngest during the class, obviously, but I've had people do that in the past. Just this year in New York, a woman brought her two young kids and a nanny and that worked out great. She paid for their food and that was the only difference. Just a thought…

That's great Karen. One caveat, don't be excited about building with hay, straw is what you want.

It's very good.Effective and quickly.Thanks.
this accordion flashes the entire content div as it moves, but only in IE.
Does anyone know of another solution that also works well in IE? I need this functionality, but it has to be cross-browser friendly.
It works fine in IE7
Best for accordions is still mootools, as it has cross-browser functionality and works like a charm.
Thank you, it is very useful
thank you very much, i search a lt
jquery.js, interface.js where is this file pls tell me by email@example.com
Great addtiong to a free video site.
cool example. thanks.. it took me some time to customize... but it was all worth it. cheers
How can you adjust the panel width ?
how to change the scrolling look? i want it looks like only 2 arrows up and down

One of you asked how to change the width. I changed the widthlike this: In FF: #myAccordion {min-width:80%;} And in IE #myAccordion {width:80%;}
Nice Example for Accordion. Thanks for this article
Cool example it helped me thanks.
You dont need the jQueryUI or accordion libs for a simple accordiion (They are quite heavy the UI lib being > 150kb) ... /* accordion.jq: left accordion menu jQuery for ekerner.com Author : 'Eugene Kerner' <firstname.lastname@example.com> Date : 23-12-2009 Dependencies: jQuery javascript lib (you do not need the jQueryUI or Accordion libs) : accordion css as per below Example. : an html structure as per the below Example. : a javascript call to accordion.init(accordionId, selectedAccordionItem) as per the below Example. Example : -

Item 1

 Item 1 content

Item 2

 Item 2 content

  */ var accordion = { animateSpeed : 'fast', init : function(accordionId, selectedItem) { $('#' + accordionId + ' h3').each(function(){ var item = $(this); item.click(function() { var item = $(this); if (item.next().is(':hidden')) { item.parent().children('div:visible').slideUp(accordion.animateSpeed); item.next().slideDown(accordion.animateSpeed); } }); if (item.html().match('>?' + selectedItem)) item.click(); }); } }
its nice to test online
dts rly too good....it helped me without wasting too mh time
ist great, thanks
good script. thanks
good example.
A faster and more enjoyable way to get familiar with this jQuery UI object than jqueryui.com itself. Gracias!
It looks Cool but i'll try it later. Can anybody tell me how to Design Captcha..???
turnuwun dab!
Where is get jss and css files of above used html.
Its really a good approach for beginners....
ty works great :)
Can the accordion pane remember the opcion selected when I refresh my page
Can the accordion pane remember the option selected when I refresh my page?
Wow nice! Thanks for the example and the codings
Is this codes running in ASP.net?
It doesn't work in IE7 if you have specified the DOCTYPE as being XHTML Transitional. But even if you change it to HTML 4.01 the movement is still erratic.
** Update to my previous comment ** It works ok in IE7 and IE8 - I forgot to put a set width on the main DIV :-)
very nice , thank you !
thanks Joseph for getting that together!!!!
Nice to have such code,... really thnk u
Hi,How can i get the Horizontal Accordion
How do I put links on pages of accordion? <base href> makes  go to ajax. Help!
this demo having four dt class.when we are going to click last dt class ,that should be visible at the top of the page with content .
hi yes its cool but its simple java script effect and i am looking for a pure AJAX mean while clicking the menu generate an Ajax request and get the menu content as response.
Hi guys.. thnx for the code.. But, when i am applying this code to my existing jsp..its images are getting dissappeared..plz help.. Following particular code of accordion is giving me trouble: <base href="http://www.ajaxdaddy.com/media/demos/play/1/accordion/interface-accordion/" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />   <link type="text/css" href="css/interface-accordion.css" rel="stylesheet">

Evolution of Resource Polymorphisms
Africa (Cameroon)
The black-bellied seedcracker (Pyrenestes ostrinus) is unusual among birds in exhibiting a non-sex-related polymorphism in bill size and represents one of the few examples of disruptive selection in natural populations. Research on this species focuses on understanding the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms maintaining trophic polymorphisms in birds. This work has included measuring natural selection in natural populations, examining the genetic basis of traits through breeding experiments, and investigating ecological aspects of diet, feeding behavior and competition. Despite increasing evidence of the widespread occurrence of resource polymorphisms in vertebrates, little is known about their genetic basis.
Understanding the genetic basis of a polymorphism when the ecological basis is well understood, as in seedcrackers, has the potential of lending important insights into the evolution of discrete variation and the genetic basis of adaptation. We are currently using molecular genetic approaches to examine the population structure and phylogenetic histories of bill morphs in order to understand how disruptive selection may lead to speciation and we are exploring which genes are involved in generating bill variation.

Recently I was interviewed by my friend Elizabeth Sosnow and she asked me about an observation in Return On Influence: "We create content … but in a way, content is also creating us."
It had been a long time since I thought about this and I thought it was timely to reflect on this powerful concept. I think my friend Jason Falls put it very well when he stated in the book:
"Before the social web, there was always a ceiling or a velvet rope – a limit to where you could go with your influence unless you were somebody famous. Now anybody can be heard. Social media and the Internet makes it possible for every person to be published, find an audience, and become influential."
Let's face it, most of the people making an impact on the social web today would not have been heard from even a few years ago, including me. Yes, I create content. But as you see, content is also creating me.
A few months ago, I was cornered at a conference by a lady who kept telling me, "You're a rockstar! You're a rockstar!" I realize that "celebrity" is something that exists in a person's head and there is nothing I can do about it, but this kind of stuff makes me very uncomfortable. I'm no rockstar, trust me. This is a perception … a creation … manufactured entirely by what I publish.
And while I am occasionally unnerved by both the positive and negative extremes of fandom, I realize how very fortunate I am to live in a time when my voice can be heard and I can truly have an impact on a global audience.
And you know what? You can have an impact, too.
If you're not using this amazing, historic opportunity to publish, you're missing out on one of the greatest technological gifts of our generation. Free publishing tools. Access to the world. The ability to connect with people nearly anywhere.
If you're not a decent writer, try video blogs. If you don't like video, start a podcast. If you don't want to commit to podcasts, how about slide presentations on Slideshare, or even photographs on Instagram?
This is Jason's time because he found blogging and committed to it. This is my time because I have the courage to create conversational content.
If you haven't become a content creator, what are you waiting for? This is your time too! What are you going to do about it?
8 Shocking New Social Media Facts
Jun 14th
I'm pleased to be a collaborator with Edison Research on the new Social Habit Project. Why? Because I'm a numbers geek so I'm overjoyed to finally get some social media data we can trust! Here are eight fantastic facts from the Social Habit's latest study.
1) 7 percent of Americans have never heard of Facebook
So on this one, can I hear a big ol' what the HELL? How can seven out of 100 people you see each day have no clue about Facebook? The social network has dominated ALL media, not just social media, for a couple of years now. TV. Magazines. The news. Even a movie. This is one mind-blowing fact. Who are these people? Even my mom knows about the "Facebox."
2) 80 percent of Americans between the ages of 18-24 use this one product
Can you name any other branded product in the world that is used by 80 percent of the young people in the United States? I asked this question in a class once and somebody shouted out "toilet paper." Ha ha. Very funny. That's not a brand. But Facebook is, and the penetration of this single brand is beyond belief. It seems like that fact alone might be a reason some people would want to invest in Facebook. They are just so … THERE.
3) Facebook acquired one new user in the U.S. every second for three years
Check out this growth rate between 2009 and 2012. Over three years, Facebook acquired about 3,805 new users per hour. That equates to almost exactly one new user per second — and that's just in the U.S. I wish I had the server installation and maintenance contract for this outfit.
4) 74 million Americans are passive aggressive
If these numbers are to believed — and they are — 74 million Americans are at least somewhat concerned about privacy issues on Facebook. That is one significant gaggle of people. Why is there no outcry? Why isn't anybody DOING anything? How come there is no Occupy Facebook Movement? Seems a little passive-aggressive to me.
5) Look to your left. Look to your right. One of you is a social media stalker.
So how many social media users are active on the network but NEVER post? If you guessed about one-third it's only because you looked at this graph first. Come on, you didn't REALLY know that did you? I would have guessed about 5 percent. Shows how much I know. I guess I haven't earned my guru merit badge yet.
6) Foursquare still sucks
Well maybe I took some liberty with that conclusion, but the data show that there has been a dramatic drop-off in both the use of location-based service and the amount of check-ins going on. Why? Boresquare is not delivering enough value to its users. We want free pastries and we want them NOW. Here's the bright side. It has never been easier to become the fake mayor of your favorite donut shop.
7) Companies are rapidly figuring out social media
I think this chart is a real-eye-popper. Here's my assumption. Since 2010, human nature has not necessarily changed so that we are more open to "following" brands and companies. I'm thinking that people aren't waking up in the middle of the night with a cold sweat and a sudden realization that the simply MUST follow more brands on Facebook. The way I interpret this chart is that the brands are delivering more value so that people WANT to follow them. I think this is a pretty amazing validation that the money being spent on social media is at least having some impact on customer connections.
8. Content marketing is for real
Here's another good news chart for marketers. A significant number of people are coming to our social media sites because they like the content, not just because they are getting a coupon. I would like to see more research about this as far as loyalty to coupons versus content, attitudes, conversions, etc. but this is pretty encouraging. Maybe there is an alternative to buying off fans and followers with daily discounts?
If you thought this information was interesting, wait until you see the whole report: The Social Habit. It is very well done and has lots of pictures of Beyonce and Justin Bieber. Well. No it doesn't. But I'm suggesting it for the next report, along with free pastries. Somebody has to do it.
Many thanks to my partners Jay Baer, Jason Falls and Tom Webster of Edison Research for collaborating on this project.
Now, here's how you can get involved. What question did we NOT ask that needs to be included next time? Give it your best shot in the comment section!
Jason Falls discusses publishing partnership
Apr 3rd
Click here if you can't see this interview with Jason Falls.
Many people dream of writing and publishing a best-selling book, but few earn the opportunity. In this video interview, first-time author Jason Falls talks about how he overcame resistance to writing a book, selling his controversial title (No Bullshit Social Media) to his publisher and the delicate challenges of working with a co-author, Erik Deckers. Most interesting I think is Jason's take on what he learned about himself and social media through the process.
A great opportunity to learn from one of the keenest minds in the business. Enjoy!

Blair Underwood back on TV starring in 'Ironside'

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Blair Underwood is returning to series television in a remake of "Ironside," which shares few similarities with the original series that starred Raymond Burr.
The character's name and job as a detective is the same, and he uses a wheelchair after being paralyzed from the waist down.

LA Galaxy will speak with the English Football Association in the hope they can keep David Beckham for as long as possible prior to this summer's men's Olympic football tournament.
The 37-year old midfielder is likely to be named in Stuart Pearce's final Team Great Britain squad for the 2012 Games but the Galaxy want their star to play as many MLS matches leading up to his national duties.
Team GB has a scheduled warm-up game against Brazil on July 20 before their opening Olympics Group A fixture against Senegal on July 26 and the Galaxy are hoping they can strike a deal with the FA so Beckham can link up with the squad as late as possible so he doesn't miss important North American league games.

Lead-ing The Discussion
Throughout the years, the synthetic turf industry has developed and tested new pigment formulations to enable the removal of all or most of the lead from over 90 percent of the pigments used to color synthetic turf. Now the STC is committed to reducing lead levels in the remaining 10 percent of all colored fibers that still require lead chromate to meet the consumer's demand for long-term colorfastness and vibrancy in certain colors. The association voluntarily pledged to reduce lead levels in accordance with the proposed Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (H.R. 4040), and to meet the same strict standards Congress is likely to impose on the children's toy industry. Specifically, STC members will reduce lead levels in all pigments used to color synthetic turf to 300 parts-per-million (ppm) or less no later than January 1, 2010, and to 100 ppm or less no later than January 1, 2012.
Other Reports On Safety
In May, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene released a 180-page review and assessment of available research and scientific knowledge by an independent environmental and engineering consulting firm attesting to the safety of crumb-rubber infilled synthetic turf. In July, the New York Department of Health issued a fact sheet on synthetic turf addressing health and safety considerations similar to the New York City report, including injury, infection, latex allergy, chemical exposure and heat stress. Both of these documents–plus numerous independent and current research, technical papers, government and regulatory agency position statements–can be found at www.syntheticturfcouncil.org.
Like parks and recreation managers across the country, the STC is committed to safeguarding the well-being of those who play on synthetic turf. The STC will continue to make independent, current and credible research and science available as it is published, and be accessible for forthright information to ensure that users enjoy peace of mind.
Rick Doyle is the President of the Synthetic Turf Council, which was founded in 2003 to serve as an objective resource assisting buyers and end users with the selection, use and maintenance of synthetic-turf systems in sports field, golf and landscape applications. STC members produce and install most of the synthetic turf sports fields in North America. For more information, visit www.syntheticturfcouncil.org.

Young people from Down Syndrome Liverpool's football team enjoyed a special afternoon at Everton's training ground this week when defender Sylvain Distin took part in an exclusive coaching session.
The event, organised by Everton in the Community's disability team, sought to raise awareness of the support that the charity offers to parents, carers and families affected by Down Syndrome. As well as meeting Distin the children each received a special surprise from the Frenchman, a match ticket to Everton's home fixture against Stoke City in the Barclays Premier League and an invitation on to the pitch for a half-time coaching session at Goodison Park during the match.
"It has been a joy to meet the children whilst they were training here today," Distin said. "They have loved every second.
"Events like this can make such a difference and I feel privileged to be able to get involved. All year round the club carries out fantastic work to engage with young people and this is a perfect example."
John Hogan, Chair of Down Syndrome Liverpool, said: "It's been a fantastic opportunity for the kids to train here at Everton with Sylvain and raise awareness of the work of the charity."

Did Adam Levine go blond? Do you need glasses? Just kidding, it's Patrick Stump!
For their upcoming episode of VH1's Unplugged series, the band performed a stripped-down version their breakout hit "Stereo Hearts." With a twist: they replaced The Voice of Maroon 5's Levine (see what we did there?) with that of former Fall Out Boy Stump, the guy who originally helped put Gym Class in a top-five Chokehold back in 2006. Sneaky move, Heroes.

Police Blotter: Roswell Police respond to shooting, toddler death
Roswell Police responded to more than 34 incidents over the weekend, according to a news release.
The incidents include an investigation in which a toddler died, a bomb threat in which a man was arrested and a man who was shot in the face.
Toddler dies from injuries
A Roswell Police officer responded to a local hospital at 3 p.m. on Friday in reference to an injured child.
Through the course of the investigation, the officer learned the mother had not seen her 2-year-old and asked her 5-year-old to look outside for the youngster.
When neither child re-entered the home, the mother went outside where she found both children in the driveway and the youngest child was bleeding.
The mother took her child to a local hospital. The 2-year-old was taken out of town for further medical treatment. The young child later succumbed to the injuries and died.

Smart Work for a Smarter Planet. I'm an IBMer, Too!
I am pretty sure that by now you may have heard / read plenty about the great things that are happening in Las Vegas at IBM's Impact 2009 event. Lots and lots of really interesting nuggets and knowledge snippets are coming through from various different places. However, there was one in particular that caught my attention earlier on today, when I bumped into it, since it reminded me very clearly of a recent blog post I put together under the title "Why I'm an IBMer".
Yes, it is another interesting and enlightening video clip, in this case, spread around by my good friend, and fellow IBM colleague, Andy Piper's "Smart Work for a Smarter Planet. I'm an IBMer", and which comes to reflect on the power of social networking and how it will shape our business relationships in the corporate world in the near future or right as we speak already for that matter!
The YouTube video lasts for nearly two minutes and it surely is a treat to go through. There are lots of very relevant tidbits on the topic of A Smarter Planet and how we, knowledge workers of the current knowledge economy we are engaging with, need to smarten up in order to get done more with less effort, i.e. keep improving our own productivity. In sort, work smarter, not necessarily harder… Does it ring a bell? (heh)
So I thought I would spend a few minutes today sharing that video clip with you folks over here. That way you can have a look on why I decided to chose the title of this blog post as what it is showing right now and why I'm still sold on the idea that social computing is going to change the business world as we know it by making it smaller, more human, more participative, less hierarchical, more authentic, more transparent and trustworthy. In short, the Enterprise of the Future!
Yes, indeed, I'm an IBMer, too!

Identity Management on Facebook by Josh Scribner
I guess it is inevitable, right? I suppose there is no way to stop it, either; perhaps it shouldn't be after all. Who knows… We all probably realise though that the usage of Facebook as one of the most powerful social networking environments out there will continue to soar even more rapidly than right now, where it was just mentioned a couple of weeks back how it reached over 200 million users, as months go by and more and more people get exposed to social software in general. Yes, like I said, it is probably inevitable.
However, what most folks can do, but may not have realised about it just yet, is the fact you can establish, and control, how you would want to interact with it, specially if you are in the need of separating both your personal and your business interactions, because, as we all know, sometimes some things should remain just that: private.
So what can you do to tailor your own Facebook interactions to suit the various different groups you connect with in that social network, so that not only you can make sense out it, but also those personal and business connections you have in such powerful networking environment? I know that plenty of times folks have been talking about how you can protect your own privacy while using Facebook extensively. I could go ahead and share with you all some tips on how you can get things going, and start protecting some of those conversations, if you haven't done so thus far.
Nonetheless, I am actually going to do something much better than that. If you need to take a closer look again in how you manage your identity in such social network so that you can split up interactions and define multiple levels of visibility, walk no further than a recent presentation that one of my team colleagues has put together and shared across in Slideshare.
Check out Identity Management for IBMers on Facebook by Josh Scribner. This is a slide deck that provides plenty of great tips on how you manage, and still make sense, of your identity in Facebook. It provides plenty of background on why we, end-users, need to watch out for what we share, how we share and with whom we share it. Because you never know how and where those interactions will turn up. Pretty much common sense, I can assure you all, but still plenty of sound advice on how you can improve your overall exposure to such social networking tool. Thus without much further ado, here you have got the embedded version, so you can take a look and judge whether it may be a good time now, or not, to re-evaluate how you are making good use of Facebook, both from a personal and business perspective. Worth while taking a look into Josh's deck to get things going, for sure.

A World Without Email – Year 2, Week 10 (Is Email Really Dead?)
You may remember my last blog post on the topic of the weekly progress reports of living "A World Without Email", where I mentioned how I was in the process of putting together an article where I would be able to share with folks how they could kill over 85% of the incoming emails they get on a daily basis. Well, it is proving to be a little bit of a challenge to eventually share it out there, because there is just so much that I want to include in that current draft (#3 at the moment) that I doubt it would fit in within a single entry. So I keep re-editing it, hoping it would see the light one of these days… Hang in there though, I am sure it will eventually be available for everyone to read very soon!
So, what happened last week then, you may be wondering, with regards to my weekly progress report on giving up email at work, right? Well, it looks like things are becoming steadier by the week and may have settled down around the barrier of the 25 emails received per week thus far. From my follow up challenge for this year of 20 or less a week. Getting there, I suppose; slowly, but steadily. Here is the snapshot from Week 10:
As you would be able to see, it looks like there wasn't a single day last week where there was a substantial increase, for whatever the reason, like it happened in previous weeks, which I guess is a good sign of things going back to normal. Like I mentioned, my new mission is to eventually get under 20 emails a week and so far seeing how close I am from that target already is, for sure, some really good news!
Talking about good news … Over the last few hours I have been getting lots of offline interactions from various folks who took the time to listen to Episode 11 from The Sweettt Podcast and make some interesting comments, specially around the subject of my conversation with Matt Simpson on re-purposing the way I interact with email and how for the first time a couple of folks hinted what I have been trying to achieve all along: that is, how I am not very much in favour of killing email per se altogether, but more on fragmenting the number of interactions, or, even better, diversifying the conversations I have coming through my Inbox and make a much more appropriate use of other collaborative, knowledge sharing and social software tools that could fit in a better purpose than an email.
Yes, indeed! That's all I am trying to do with this living "A World Without Email". I have never said that email is dead nor that it will disappear any time soon. In fact, I still see plenty of benefits for email, specifically for 1:1 interactions. However, email is perhaps not the best of knowledge sharing and collaborative tools. Quite the opposite!
And that's just what that upcoming article I mentioned above will be about. Not how to kill email, nor how to make it disappear from your daily routine, but certainly how to reduce over the 85% to 90% of noise that is currently coming through it. What I am trying to show everyone is how we need to think before we send that next email, because there is a great chance there may be a better tool to share that information / knowledge than through an email. In most cases there usually is!
So there you have it. The prelude of the upcoming article I hope to be sharing with you all pretty soon that will probably help you change or adapt some of your daily habits in how to get in touch and connect with your peers to share what you know. And in most cases avoiding the tool we all know doesn't always fit the right purpose all the time. Email.

A larger-than-life bronze statue stands on the courthouse lawn in Dresden, Tennessee in honor of one of Tennessee's best friends -- a man who grew up poor in Northwest Tennessee and never forgot where he came from; a man who played sports and went to college, only to drop out after problems with his knees made football impossible; a man that started out his business career as a low paid traveling shoe salesman and grew into a multi-millionaire.
He was a big man…an honest man…and he loved the people around him. In 1968 he ran for a seat in the Tennessee House of Representatives so that he could serve the people of his community and his state. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Join WCTE as we take a look at this man who has touched the lives of every Tennessean – Governor Ned Ray McWherter – in HONORING NED. This production of WLJT-DT will air Wednesday, May 4 at 8:30 pm. (also Thursday May 5th at 8:30pm) and focuses on the man as well as the politician. Most of all, it focuses on the friend we all knew and the unveiling of a statue in his honor on his 80th birthday in the fall of 2010.

U.S. ecumenical ties strong despite challenges to Christian unity
By Mark Pattison
Catholic News Service
WASHINGTON (CNS) -- More people profess Catholicism in the United States than any other single religion. There are 64.4 million Catholics, representing close to 22 percent of the nation's total population.
But the overall number of Catholics and other Christians represents an overwhelming majority of the U.S. population, which has now passed the 300 million mark.
Although there are denominational divides and new fissures continue to threaten unity even within faiths considered mainstream, Catholic and other Christian leaders engaged in ecumenical relations continue to see its importance.
The U.S. Catholic Church's ecumenical efforts include dialogues with Lutherans, Methodists and evangelicals and a consultation with Anglicans. It also belongs to Christian Churches Together in the USA, founded in March 2006 and considered the broadest, most inclusive ecumenical movement in U.S. history.
That's the ecumenical landscape Pope Benedict XVI will find during his mid-April visit to the United States.
On the pope's itinerary is an April 18 ecumenical prayer service in New York with leaders of other Christian denominations at St. Joseph's Church, which was founded by German Catholics. The meeting comes a day after he gathers with 200 religious leaders at an interfaith prayer service in Washington.
Father James Gardiner, a member of the Society of the Atonement, an order founded to foster ecumenical dialogue, said these are "very challenging and very encouraging" times for ecumenism.
"One of the most interesting things we just did was for the (annual) Week of Prayer for Christian Unity (in January). We asked people to tell us what they were doing. The stuff was coming in fast and furious," he said in a telephone interview with
Catholic News Service
. His order's headquarters are in Garrison, N.Y.
For example, he said, the Diocese of Brooklyn, N.Y., "had a Week of Prayer service, but they're also having a prayer service around Pentecost for the same thing. They're not limiting themselves to one time a year."
The Episcopal Church, the U.S. branch of the worldwide Anglican Communion, has seen tensions rise within the denomination over the 2003 ordination of an openly gay bishop and a move to bless same-sex unions. One Episcopal diocese voted in December to secede from the Episcopal Church and align itself with an Anglican branch it considers more orthodox in adhering to Anglican teaching.
Because of these tensions, "what we want from our Roman Catholic brothers and sisters is patience and to keep the conversation going," said Episcopal Bishop Christopher Epting, who since 2001 has been his denomination's deputy for ecumenical and interfaith relations. "We're very encouraged that things have not broken off. We continue to stay at the table."
After 40 years of Catholic-Episcopal dialogue in the United States, the task of unity is "not easier. I think it's increasingly difficult," Bishop Epting said.
In times past, he added, "we'd begun to develop our own identities apart from one another -- and sometimes not even in conversation with one another. When we make decisions (now) we know it affects the other church. We have consulted with the Rome and the U.S. Catholic Church in our struggles."
The Catholic Church is, ecumenically speaking, "the elephant in the living room," Bishop Epting said. "If we can't (work with) the Roman Catholic Church ecumenically, we can't really be ecumenical at all."
Addressing the impact of U.S. religious pluralism on ecumenical dialogue, the Rev. Doug Mills, the United Methodist Church's chief ecumenical officer, said: "I don't know that it makes it easier or more difficult. I think that religious diversity in the U.S. gives a different context, a context we're very familiar with, but a context that has its own complexities."
Rev. Mills said Methodists may have some issues with Catholic belief and practice, but after 40-plus years of dialogue, it's still hard to define one issue as insurmountable.
"I don't know that we've really said there is one issue that we cannot get over," he told CNS. "I think there are some significant issues we have not yet begun to grasp.
"I know for United Methodists one of those issues might be the role of the bishop of Rome and possibly the place of Mary -- probably more, devotion to Mary -- might be one of those," he continued. "I'm guessing, but I suspect that for Catholics one of those issues that need deeper discussion is the ordering of ministry, especially the role of women, and the episcopacy."
Many Protestant denominations in the 20th century began to allow the ordination of women. The Catholic Church has repeatedly said its teaching that it does not have the authority to ordain women is definitive and that the issue is not open to debate among Catholics.
"I think everybody has a different way of dealing with the ordering of ministry," Rev. Mills said. "For some people it's important, for some people it's not so important. For the people who feel it's not so important, what's more important is the product of the ministry."
"It's not surprising" that new wrinkles appear in the ecumenical fabric at the same time church representatives are conducting dialogues about greater unity, according to Bishop Epting. "The world is moving very fast. ... Issues change very rapidly and we are confronting things we never would have thought about 40 years ago."
If he had a chance to brief Pope Benedict on ecumenical relations in the United States, Father Gardiner said, "I'd tell him to trust our experience. ... It's OK, it's consonant with the workings of the Holy Spirit. Take us seriously. We're a very faithful lot. And I'd say we're proud of being a faithful lot, but pride is a sin.
"Then I'd say to him, 'Come with me and I'll show you,' because I'm not so sure that when people come from overseas they're ... familiar with what happens here," the priest said. "Sometimes they can't believe it. There are people from all over the place. They're all mixed together now in ways they weren't before. We have prior experience in that. It takes a little doing, but it all works out. It's very challenging and very encouraging."
"Thank God for the ecumenical movement," echoed Bishop Epting. "We do have relationships that allow us to be ... not quite so separate."
While Catholics and Protestants are on the same path to unity, nobody can say for sure what's at the end of the path.
"I think that we don't yet know what it is that God is calling us to," Rev. Mills said. "We don't know yet what the Spirit is leading us to actually looks like. And so we just keep moving on faith that at the right time it will be revealed.
"My guess is -- and it's just a guess -- that 'one church' does not look like the current United Methodist Church," he said. "It will look like something else. But what that is, I don't know yet."

Camo maker celebrates 25 years of helping hunters bag more game
By Ken Piper
As Buckmasters prepares to close the books on our 25th anniversary year, we wanted to take a moment to give props to Bill Jordan and Realtree, as they also turned 25 in 2011.
You might say the two companies grew up together, both starting out as low-odds dreams of the men who founded them, and then turning into industry-changing/creating staples.
Buckmasters internet editor Chris Brown and I had the pleasure to sit down with Bill and Tyler Jordan a few weeks ago to chat about Realtree's amazing 25 years.
I had met and spoken with Bill several times throughout my years as the Buckmasters magazine editor, but his schedule never allowed for the kind of one-on-one time we enjoyed in that interview. Bill would probably say he's a little older and wiser than he was 25 years ago, but his success certainly hasn't made him forget where he came from, nor how blessed he is to be living his vision.
He's still very hands-on with the company and has created a new Realtree pattern that will debut in 2013. I was surprised to learn that Bill draws out the patterns himself, using photos from the woods on his hunting property.
The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree, and Tyler Jordan is as nice and as humble as his father. Tyler is mixing college with learning the ropes at Realtree while squeezing in a few hunts in the fall.
Join us in wishing Bill and the Realtree family a happy 25th as we celebrate Twelve Days of Realtree.
We'll be sharing the interview in 12 internet-friendly parts so you can hear Bill and Tyler talk about the past, present and future of this great American company.

Two men on a business trip in a Cirrus aircraft walked away from
a potential disaster a week ago Monday when their airplane
experienced an engine problem at 11,000 feet. But the BRS parachute
on the airplane allowed them to be smiling as emergency personnel
arrived on the scene.
File Photo
Attorneys Charles Miller and Charles Reynolds, who was flying
the airplane were aboard the Cirrus returning from a business trip
to Dallas. Miller told Cincinnati television station WKRC that they
were over Oklahoma about an hour into their flight at about 11,000
feet when the airplane experienced an engine problem. Miller said
he heard a "pretty loud noise" and then saw a puff of smoke come
out of the cowling.
As the airplane neared the ground, Miller said they were heading
towards some trees when Reynolds said "I'm going to deploy the
chute." Miller said his reaction was "chute?" He said didn't
know the airplane was equipped with a full airframe parachute
(which, frankly, should have been part of the briefing).
Reynolds pulled the handle at about 500 feet AGL, and the chute
reached full deployment just before the airplane impacted the
ground. It suffered a broken landing gear, bent wing, and slight
rupture somewhere in the fuel system. Miller and Reynolds both
walked away unharmed, and Miller said the first thing he did was
buy beer and "a bunch of lottery tickets."
Maybe if he wins the lottery, he'll consider a Cirrus.

A brilliant performance by Hubert de Bouard, the 2001 Angelus is a more restrained and deliniated version of the 2000...Its deep purple color is followed by a rich nose of creosote, charcoal, blackberries, plums, cassis and espresso roast. Elegant, medium bodied and rich, with a measured ripeness and moderate structure in the pure, nicely proportioned finish...beautifully put together. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2017.
(6/ 2004)
Intense aromas of earth, spice and new wood with fruit. Full-bodied and chewy with plenty of fruit and vanilla. Rich and exciting. Long finish. Angélus is a consistent winner and did well here.
(3/ 2004)
Ruby-red. Very ripe, sweet aromas of redcurrant, roasted plum, truffle, smoke and game, lifted by a floral nuance. Lush, sweet and fat, with a seamless texture and lovely balance. Flavors of blackberry, raspberry, tobacco and chocolate. Finishes with rather suave, building tannins and excellent length.
(5/ 2004)
Sweet, meaty, smoky aromas. Toasty and spicy. Seems like it has everything in proper proportions. Showed well at UGC tasting with chocolately flavors. Excellent wine and one of our favorites of the right bank.

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's Conglomerate Parent Works on Debt Restructuring Plan
In an internal memo, the Education Media & Publishing Group–the conglomerate parent of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing–signaled that they have nearly completed a restructuring of the company's debt.
Daily Finance has the scoop, reprinting a memo from CEO Barry O'Callaghan. The corporate leader hailed the restructuring as "terrific news for our Company." The conglomerate also refinanced in August 2009.
Here's more from the article: "it looks as if the restructuring plan, which would inject $650 million of fresh capital and wipe out at least $475 million in the stakes of existing private-equity holders, will be completed on or around March 9…As part of its new business plan, HMH also announced the creation of a $100 million innovation fund for future-thinking projects."
