Opinion: Researching Jurors On The Internet Is Not Just Permissible, But Necessary
On June 30, the Law Tribune published an editorial "A Troublesome Opinion Regarding Juror Internet Research," in which it lamented recent American Bar Association Formal Opinion 466. This opinion concluded that there was nothing wrong with a lawyer reviewing a juror's internet presence as long as the lawyer does not initiate contact with the juror (such as by sending him or her a "friend" request).

Tina Weymouth, bass player for the Talking Heads, recently sat down with Rolling Stone magazine to say she's open to playing some reunion shows. She quickly added, however, that the final decision is up to fronter David Byrne:
"You'll have to ask David Byrne about that. I don't see why there shouldn't be a reunion. On the other hand, I'm not going to hold my breath because life goes on. We are in touch with the band and we all would love to do it, but we can't do it without David."
The last time the band performed together was at their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.
In any case, Weymouth is keeping busy as she's currently out on a European tour with Tom Tom Club to promote their first release in 12 years, Downtown Rockers.

7 links
The other day, Darren at Problogger challenged readers to post 7 links on their blogs. And because there are lots of new people around these parts lately, I thought I'd take him up on his challenge!
- my first post – like I need another blog… – I revamped this site in January. Originally, it was a static site built on WordPress that housed my resume and some info on setting up blogs. When I revamped it, I put the blog front & center – thank goodness! This site has evolved since then but the mission stays the same.
- the post I enjoyed writing the most – embracing abundance & breaking the scarcity mindset – This is a post on Scoutie Girl as it applies not just to entrepreneurs but to all people wanting to realize their own worth. But it remains one of my most popular posts and it was indeed fun to write. I banged it out in just over an hour and hit publish.
- post that had a great discussion – small victories – I was shocked at the great discussion & authentic responses that came from this short post.
- post on someone else's blog that I wish I had written – how to get unstuck: there is no stuck by Kelly Diels – also, pretty much anything else that Kelly writes. The thing about Kelly is that her writing inspires me and pushes me forward. I can't copy it – I can't sit wishing for too long that I had the guts/brains/beauty to write what she does. I just have to write.
- post that has a title you're proud of – 3 reasons to pay more for your stuff – One of my first posts on Scoutie Girl about mindful spending and another that remains popular week in and week out. Truthfully, the title isn't that kick ass – but it is direct and just a little shocking.
- post that I wish more people had read – blogging outside the box – Truthfully, I have no idea how many people read this post because it was a guest post on Dave Doolin's blog. However, Chris Brogan said that he loved it (no really, he did!) so I think it should be read by as many people as possible. Seriously, check it out and look really critically at your own blog.
- most widely read post – the art & business of crafting your online self – At well over 11,000 page views, this is my most widely read post. It's the synopsis of a talk I gave at my alma mater of authentically representing yourself & your entrepreneurial spirit online.
There you have it – 7 links I think you should read. Enjoy them, savor them over the weekend. I'll be in Pittsburgh (care to join me?).
And be sure to leave a link of your own in the comments!
Continue the conversation...
5 comments on "7 links"
I'll have to check out Darren's post. I used to link out a lot, been busier these days.
Remember, There Is No Box (since 1996) http://tinobox.com/wordpress/
Tara I will be reading each of your links. I find your writing amazing!! As well as helpful and inspiring. I started your online course but then had to drop out midway. I still plan on completing the assignments because I'm totally stuck creatively right now. Also am enjoying your new venture.
Hi Tara,
I recently wrote my 7 links as well.
We a lot of the same of topics in common however I must bow down. You have more experience ahead of me so I'll be following along your links now and get a little bit of that wisdom.
Thanks for sharing,
Oops, I meant we have a lot in common. Excited typo,

My Dog
An Unconditional Love Story
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
I love this movie because of the deep truth it conveys about dogs. I own two, small breed dogs which have given me immense pleasure and companionship through the years, especially during trying times. Dogs and other animals are precious to us and to this world; we must love and cherish them.
Even those of us who are cat people can appreciate this celebration of the simplicity and poignancy of an animal's unconditional love. Well-told, simple, fascinating, at times hilarious, at others heartbreaking, always moving and worth a watch for those who love animals of all kinds.

Bulls 93, Celtics 86: Second straight tough loss
First half, good. Second half, not good. Rebounding, never good.
4 Responses to "Bulls 93, Celtics 86: Second straight tough loss"
Truthfully, I was more upset with last night's loss than this one. We obviously played lax in the 3rd qtr and less so in the 4th, but I liked a lot of what I saw and when MP is back that will help our height issues (although our bench centers only managed 1 reb in 24 mins and that's pathetic). That said, I saw Doc make a change tonight that will greatly help this team going forward and I did not think Doc was capable of making said change. Hopefully, RA will still come off the bench and provide firepower to that second unit. The other thing I heard was Doc telling the team EMPHATICALLY in a late timeout to "rebound and run". As you know, I have been extremely critical of Doc and his coaching and our lack of rebounding effort, but if he keeps things as they were tonight I believe I'll be giving him a lot of credit going forward. The fouls against the Cs were a bit too 'Laker-ref-ish', but all in all I liked a lot of what I saw and know that the effort will be there when really needed. This team is shaping up nicely and with MP back, and us healthy through out the playoffs, we stand a very good chance to reach the Finals – where anything can happen. Go Cs…
Like or Dislike: 0 0
Doc was mad about them walking the ball up (and I don't just blame Rondo for that – I think he does it because the Big Three demand it) – it's always an offense killer when we walk the ball up and then pass the ball around the perimeter for a 20 foot J
Like or Dislike: 0 0
tired legs on the back to back, could see it. ray still rusty. tough stretch gotta stay positive and get four seed or better and stay healthy.. go c's
Like or Dislike: 0 0
And we come crashing back to earth. Two straight losses. Was the Miami game a fluke? I don't think so. Boston played a competitive game to both the Spurs and Bulls. It's not like we got run out the building. Wins are great, but playing to win in my mind is better. The Celtics did that in the last 2 games just a shame they couldn't close out. As long as they can give the contenders a run, we have a chance going forward in the playoffs.

Fellow Republican urging Bolling not to run for Governor
Virginia Senator says Republicans need to unite behind Ken Cuccinelli
A prominent pro-business Republican legislator is urging Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling not to make an independent bid for governor this year.
State Sen. Walter Stosch of Henrico, a retired accountant with strong business backing, released a letter dated Tuesday in which he asks Bolling to forgo the race so Republicans can unite behind presumed GOP nominee Ken Cuccinelli.
Bolling, a Republican, abandoned his gubernatorial quest in November after concluding he could not beat Cuccinelli in a closed GOP convention dominated by Cuccinelli's conservative backers.
Bolling said he believes Cuccinelli, a tea party darling, is taking the GOP in the wrong direction. Bolling set a March 14 deadline for announcing his plans.
A Bolling candidacy would create a three-way race with Cuccinelli and Democrat Terry McAuliffe, who has no primary challenger.

Gryo-stabalized two-wheeler from the future never tips over
Half motorcycle, half car and all electric, the C-1 by Lit Motors is the world's first gyroscopically stabilized EV. Designed and built from scratch, the C-1 is a fresh look for an electric vehicle, one that smashes perceptions and industry benchmarks to boot.
Let's start out with performance. The C-1 goes from zero to 60 in six seconds flat. That's just as fast as your daddy's Camaro. And 60 isn't the ceiling. This thing's top speed is over 100 mph. The C-1 also breaks range benchmark by hitting 200 miles per charge.
Now, what will it cost you? That depends on how long you hold out for one. Need it ASAP? You'll be able to pick one up by 2014 for a cool $24,000. That's due to Lit Motors' relatively small initial construction capacity. But here's the good news: wait a year, and the C-1 will drop to $16,000! That's a savings of 33% in just one year. Wait a couple more years, say until 2018 when Lit plans to be at full production capacity, and you can pick one up for $12,500. Factor in the savings on each tank of gas (a full charge costs about a buck) and Lit is practically paying you to own this thing.
Want more benefits? The C-1 is actually thin enough to lane split (where legal, of course), snaking you through traffic jams and saving your commute. That, while also offering all the amenities of the most modern of cars: AC, power windows, airbags and a Siri-like interface. The controls are all experienced through a minimalist HUD — a sort of Google Goggles for your car. You can even turn the C-1 on and maneuver it from your smartphone.
And don't worry, those gyroscopic stabilizers I mentioned will keep you upright, even if some irate hoser opens his door on you as you cruise through traffic jams while bumpin' to your Rdio and searching for a cool coffee shop. Oh, and watching the road — this thing doesn't drive itself.
Below, Lit Motors shows off the C-1 at TechCrunch's Disrupt event.

Anna Bolena is a tragedia lirica, or opera, in two acts by Gaetano Donizetti. Felice Romani wrote the Italian libretto after Ippolito Pindemonte's Enrico VIII ossia Anna Bolena and Alessandro Pepoli's Anna Bolena, both tellings of the life of Anne Boleyn. It premiered on December 26, 1830 at the Teatro Carcano, Milan.
The duet "Sui suo capo aggravi un Dio" between Anna (soprano) and Jane Seymour (mezzo soprano) is considered one of the finest in the entire operatic repertoire.
Performance History
Anna Bolena was not performed frequently during the latter half of 19th century and early 20th century, but it was revived with more frequency in the post-war years. In April 1957, the opera was revived at La Scala for Maria Callas in a lavish production directed by Luchino Visconti, and it proved to be one of her greatest triumphs. Other famous interpreters of the role were Leyla Gencer, Beverly Sills, Montserrat Caballé, Renata Scotto and Edita Gruberova.
Anna Bolena is part of the standard operatic repertoire. There are several recordings of it, and it is regularly performed.

Reviews for Tangy Meat Sauce
Sort By :
"I have made this meat sauce for years. Just today I couldn't find my tattered copy ripped from the magazine and went online in search of it. I'm very glad to have found it. This sauce is a bit on the sweet side, but my family and day care kids love it. I usually have to make a triple batch if I want to have any leftovers. This one's a keeper!"
"Very good. Nice and thick. Easy to make."
"I used ground turkey and cider vinegar (just what I had) and made it on the stove and it was really good. My boyfriend and I both liked it. It has a bit of a different flavor than regular sauce (I guess that's the tangy), but we'd definitely have it again."
"I cannot wait to try this recipe, minus the green peppers."
"I haven't made the receipe yet, but it looks like something we would like; however, I will prepare it on the stovetop rather than microwave."

More on Education
Congressman Kerry Bentivolio invites all high school students from the Michigan's 11th Congressional District to participate in the first annual Congressional Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) Academic Competition. "The House STEM App Challenge" is designed to engage student's creativity and encourage their involvement in STEM education fields.
The competition is a nationwide event where high school students design an "app", also known as a software application, for a mobile phone, tablet, or computer device.
Congressman Kerry Bentivolio is privileged to announce the nomination of twenty-nine applicants to the prestigious UnitedStates military service academies. Hailing from municipalities all across Michigan's Eleventh District, which contains portions of Oakland and Wayne counties, these ambitious young people will be competing to become the future leadership of our nation's armed forces.
As a former soldier who served in both the Vietnam and Iraq War, I can tell you that our veterans often find it difficult to transition from military to civilian life. Workplace skill training can be a lifesaver for many of our veterans making the move from our armed services to the private sector.
Too many of our soldiers are finding it difficult to find jobs when they return from overseas. It's time to help them out.
Today, Rep. Kerry Bentivolio introduced the Veteran's Entry to Apprenticeship Act, H.R. 3384. This act amends current law, specifically Title 38, to allow veterans to use their educational benefits for enrollment in pre-apprenticeship programs.
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congressman Kerry Bentivolio's amendment to the Student Success Act (H.R. 5) passed with overwhelming support. This amendment gives the small business community a seat at the table when education policy is developed at the state level. He released the following statement on its passage:
Congressman Kerry Bentivolio's office announced the Mobile District Office schedule for the month of May.
Staff from Congressman Kerry Bentivolio's office will be available to listen to any concerns and help constituents resolve problems or get information from federal agencies.
Mobile District Office Schedule - May
Hours: 9 am – 5 pm
As the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been winding down, we have welcomed roughly 100,000 veterans back to our communities. Unfortunately, these brave men and women are returning to a stagnant economy. An American hero who participated in the raid against Osama bin Laden recently talked about the difficulties many soldiers face as they transition back to ordinary life. With few job prospects and no income after his retirement from service, he told Esquire magazine, "I still have the same bills I had in the Navy.

Pascal (given name)
|"associated with Passover (or Easter)"
|Other names
|Related names
|Pascale, Pascalle, Paschal, Paskal, Paschalis, Pascaline, Pasquale, Pascoale, Pascoal, Pasqual, Pascual, Pascoe, Pasco
|Look up Pascal in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Pascal (\p(a)-scal, pas-cal\) is a common masculine Francophone given name, cognate of Italian name Pasquale, Spanish name Pascual, Catalan name Pasqual. Pascal is common in French-speaking countries, Germany and Netherlands. The correct feminine form is Pascale, Pascalle or Pascalina. Pascal is also common as a surname [1] in France, and in Italy (in Piedmont, Aosta Valley and, as De Pascal, in Friuli-Venezia Giulia).
Pascal derives from the Latin paschalis or pashalis, which means "relating to Easter", from Latin pascha ("Passover", i.e. the Easter Passover"), Greek Πάσχα, Aramaic pasḥā, in turn from the Hebrew pesach, which means "to be born on, or to be associated with, Passover day". Since the Hebrew holiday Passover coincides closely with the later Christian holiday of Easter, the Latin word came to be used for both occasions.
The names Paschal, Pasqual, Pasquale, Pascoale, Pascoal, Pascale, Pascha, Paschalis, Pascual, Pascoe and Pasco are all variations of Pascal.

And watched Mythbusters
After pestering me about what I got him for V-day and making a hoo-ha when he found out I got him nothing (seriously, what do you get for a dude? I just accumulate the presents and get a good one at one go), he popped my gift from the back of the couch. I've been dropping hints for weeks! Ok, I did expect it so it wasn't exactly a surprise but at least he didn't just shove it in front of my face and said, "There you go". I don't usually fancy movie tie-in covers but for Gerard Butler, I'll make an exception. Hot men in their forties.... *drools* The movie and the book were quite different and both have their own appeals. I was disappointed by the book's ending though *sighs*

Seeing some of the pantry pictures in other posts has gotten me to thinking. Dangerous I know!
I would love to see other pictures of pantry set ups, canning jars and the like. I have a basement that I could convert part of to a huge pantry. I would love to see some more ideas.
So please...post some pictures for me to get (steal) ideas from!
Ooh, yeah! I loved looking at the pictures, too.
I always enjoy looking at everyones pictures.

Beautiful pictures!!
wow Oberhaslikid, you've been busy! Looks good!
I don't have any pics of our area but we use the electrical room(4'x7') for storing most of our canned goods. This year has been good so we are going to put some shelves under the basement stairs to store the rest. Both areas are very dark and stay cool. Also, we don't lose any living space to our food. The previous owners left a couple of old water bed frames so we used those to make heavy duty shelves that hold a lot. I store some dehydrated food in totes under the shelves and so far that set up works for us.
Great Pics. I was also gonna ask about the Ginger garlic.
I wish I had all that canned! Im working on it but you are all way ahead of me =)
GREAT idea!!! We use lateral file cabinets here at work for our files.....I look at them everyday and never once thought to store food in them. I'm going to keep an eye out for used ones.
You have some great storage ideas, jmtinmi!
ohhhh sooo pretty!!!!!

The Barcelona forward was criticised by Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone for going down too easily in the wake of the sides' 1-1 Champions League draw on Tuesday.
Pele said the 22-year-old was less inclined to go to ground now than he had been while at Santos, but still had work to do.
"Yes, yes, he had this problem in Santos also," the Brazil great said in an exclusive interview with ESPNFC.
"I think he tries to create fouls and situations that are not there. But now he got much better, because in Europe things are different."
Neymar will carry the weight of expectation for host nation Brazil at this summer's World Cup and Pele warned piling too much pressure on him could be counter-productive.
"What makes me worried a little bit is the pressure on him," he said. "Because the World Cup is a tournament, it's not just one game.
"Everyone expects Neymar is going to win the World Cup for Brazil. This is very dangerous for him."

Dr. Miranda Bailey '- aka "The Nazi" '- recently gave birth on Grey's Anatomy, but in reality Chandra Wilson, who plays the no-nonsense chief resident, had her third child, six-pound, 14-ounce Michael last fall. For Wilson, a Houston native and veteran of the stage, TV and movies like Lone Star, Philadelphia and this summer's Strangers with Candy, that meant one hell of an extended pregnancy.
"That thing is very annoying. It itches," she pooh-poohs about the pregnancy pad she wore until her character delivered. Wilson, who is the very approachable antithesis of the woman who makes interns tremble on-screen, compares her pregnancies '- factual and fictional '- with us.
Was your latest real-life delivery easier than Bailey's?
Yes. My pregnancy and delivery were like a dream. I had a cesarean birth. He was about 10 days early. I couldn't have asked for it to go better.
Was shooting the delivery scene as exhausting as it looked?
I did all the pushing back-to-back in the same day. I knew what it was going to be like, so I was in a zone.
Was there any discussion of not writing your pregnancy in?
Well, at first I did some "clipboard acting" [hid her belly with props] until they decided. The show's creator, Shonda Rhimes, had been thinking about Bailey's home life, so it kind of coincided.
How will motherhood change Bailey?
She's still as determined as ever at her job. She's still going to accomplish. But she's going to do it all '- she's going to have her family and she's going to work and she's going to make all that work.
How do you make it work, juggling career and motherhood?
I'm a breastfeeding mom, so he's there with me. Just like with anything, you schedule as best you can and you go about your day knowing that it's all going to change!
Are the long hours a problem?
Fortunately, because there are 10 of us in the cast, the work gets spread evenly. We'll have a 14- or 16-hour day, but then we'll have an 8.
Michael must be a hit with your costars.
That started in utero! He's got so many aunts and uncles and cousins now.

Sunny Side Up
From Jupiter to Boca Raton and over to the Everglades, Palm Beach County is larger than Delaware.
The county's geographic and ecological diversity is unique, going from white-sand beaches and coastal inlets to the famous swamps and marsh lands of the Everglades, with everything (excepting mountains) in between.
Multiply in a healthy population growth factor and the formula is ever-changing, keeping the county's parks and recreation department on its proverbial toes. Keeping those toes free from the everyday missteps of the daily dance has been an ongoing goal over the years.
Diverse Development
"There is a significant amount of publicly-owned land in the county, but in the past a lot of it has been locked up, and the same has been true with the schools," explains Dennis Eshleman, the county's director of parks and recreation.
"We've been breaking down those barriers, and getting actively involved in the design and development of these public lands. You have to get all the players together and coordinate that to the best of your ability. It's a challenge to maintain those relationships and cooperative efforts. Oftentimes you're not familiar with the other agency's goals and objectives, but once you understand those you can find areas of common interest and effort."
Eshleman sees an increased interest in a healthy balance between passive and active use areas that preserve and protect the county's resources while maximizing the public's enjoyment of those resources.
"I think there will be more emphasis on recreation using various types of environmental lands. We have some environmental sections within our parks department, but our Environmental Resources Management Department has purchased over 30,000 acres of environmental lands, and we work well together creating public uses on these lands from the standpoint of both eco-tourism and local use," says Eshleman.
"We're looking at building various types of trails, because we see an increased demand for this type of use. The key is to put together a number of partnerships using other agencies' lands for various recreation purposes. It depends on the agencies, who's in charge at each and where the interest lies. In the past, there have been concerns about liability, but we've been able to resolve those concerns in working with agencies who control these lands to develop specific use policies that really open up a good portion of their lands for public use."
The department, for instance, has just completed the first phase of an island park development, a land owned by three different governmental agencies.
The 90-acre island, which now has campgrounds and picnicking, will also include basins with floating docks, a marina with slicks, fishing piers, observation towers, snorkeling basins, a shallow lagoon with white beaches and other beach and boating amenities. An interactive waterfall is being constructed that is envisioned as a place for patrons to play and rinse off at, as opposed to a typical beach shower.
A historical Coast Guard facility originally built in the 1920s is being restored, as well as an old bomb shelter that was built for John F. Kennedy when he was President. Add all this to white beaches and palm trees and you're looking at a parks and recreation paradise.
With responsibility for 13 beach parks and five aquatic complexes, the parks and recreation department is especially diligent with its lifeguard training program.
This diligence was highlighted this past year when the department won the 2004 United States Lifesaving Association National Championship and placed first in the 2003 ClinCon International Championship, Basic Life Support Division.
The winning regimen includes daily training with an hour of training and preparation before the guards hit the stands, rigorous physical conditioning standards regardless of age or gender and very clear and specific standards.
Overall, the county's parks and recreation department employs around 1,100, with about 350 contract employees and a network of more than 4,000 volunteers.

It's Tuesday evening and I'm trying to type this as quick as possible because I promised myself that I would go to bed early this week. Sleep is so important for your health and yet a lot of us tend to neglect our sleep.
I've also started to work out and eat right again, this after almost an entire winter of being sedentary and eating comfort foods. Eek.
Earlier this week, I shared with you our Spring mantel and promised I would share how to make the little egg specimen display. It's super simple, here we go...

I am still finishing up all the CIL stuff I wanted to post. Losing access to my blog in DC totally through me off and I think in some ways I am still catching up.
Here is a hearty group that fell in together for a late dinner after the Wednesday evening session. Captured by Jude Lewandowski: L-R Michael, Greg, Bob, Aaron and John, St Mary's archivist and SJCPL Geneologist.
CIL Highlights included all I've written in this category before and the following:
Meeting Rachel Singer Gordon before Fridays keynote. Her book came out the same time as mine and we were reviewed together a few times. Her writing has inspired me ever since, especially her well-thought views on where our profession is heading.
Our Bloggers Dine Around (WE missed you Steven!) where 12 people fell in for great Thai food, some yummy cocktails and some darn fine chat: blogs in the library workplace, PDAs, the wireless world, evil PowerPoint presentations and of course a recap of the Dead and Emerging Technologies program the night before.
David King of Kansas City Public Library speaking about meeting users needs with the PL Web site and a local slant. GOOD STUFF! He and I have chatted since then and I look forward to chatting again about all this cool IT stuiff we get bto mess with at the public library. (and about MUSIC too!)
More laptops in the audience this year a few PCs, tablets, and yes, some Macs!!! I was please to see Roy Tennants 17 PB and I told him so in the elevator.
Hanging with Jenny and Aaron between sessions in the WiFi Lounge in the lobby of the Hilton, watching CIL dignitaries pass by
One of the highlighhts of this Conference was seeing Jenny Levine at the Wednesday night Dead and Emerging Technologies session. She made some great points. This stuff is spot on. She gratefully shared her notes with me, so here's a bit that really hit home for me: (Jenny's words are in bold!)
- Library web sites with email reference forms that say We will respond to your email within 48 hours Uh Oh - SJCPL is guilty!
- Libraries that dont provide wireless access for patrons, librarians that dont understand why they will need to OH YES!!!
- Librarians who think patrons wont bring their own mobile devices into the library and expect to use them there (laptops, PDAs, cell phones, smartphones, Tablet PCs, MP3 players, etc.)
- Librarians who sit behind a desk waiting for kids to walk into the building and up to the reference desk to ask them a question Case in point: Aaron the roving untethered librarian who was sitting next to me during this session!
DEAD TECHNOLOGY: any electronic device you can hold in your hand that does not have wireless capabilities
I got to spend time with Aaron of thebizz.org fame. I've been a fan of Mao for a long time. We discovered a mutual enjoyment of good tea and healthy breakfasts so three days of CIL we met early and went to Teaism...which is just down the hill from the Hilton.
Aaron works at Thomas Ford Memorial Library as all around Tech Librarian guy (he did their web site as a series of blogs) and as I type this he is roving the stacks with a wireless enabled laptop. Purely, in my mind, the definition of the Untethered Tech Info Literate Library type if there ever was one...
Back to CIL though, I was always a minute or two behind so he was always waiting at the bottom of the escalator on the lower level, Treo 600 in hand.... I kid you not: same place, same stance...every morning:
Aaron really helped me through the big blog crash of March 10, 2004. He got me going here on Movable Type and helped make this version of TTW what you see here..now... Thanks Aaron!
One of the posts that got lost when my previous blog software crashed mid-conference was about Tuesday March 9, the day before the conference started when many of my colleagues and I were teaching preconference workshops.
I started the day by swinging by the Cabinet Room and giving my best to Jenny and Steven who were doing their Blogging 101 program.
Then, Scott Brandt and I spent the morning fine-tuning our 5-Star workshop I wrote about here.
Lunch was provided by InfoToday, offering a chance to have some good food and see old friends from previous conferences. A group of students for our afternoon session sat with Scott and I and we chatted before heading into our workshop space.
Sharing the slot with Bob and I was Angela Ballard, Information Technology Training Librarian at NCSU.
Her talk was titled "Ahead of the Curve: Insuring Success of a Technology Training Program for Library Staff" and it really hit home some very important points.
To insure a successful Technology/IT Training program:
The library must take responsibility and devote time and resources
The library must provide a training reesponse to every library-wide technology implementation
The library must provide tools for on the job tech training
The library must distribute training responsibilities.
They do about 50 classes a year at NCSU.
AND adminstrators must do this:
Believe in organizational impact of a programmatic approach to training
Budget for technology training
Support continuing education for trainer(s)
Understand the nature of training work
Project-oriented approach to technology implementation
(From her PowerPoint at http://www.infotoday.com/cil2004/presentations/Ballard.pps)
Right ON! I may be preaching to the choir here but there can never be enough PLANNING for tech implementation in the library - especially where some training should occur. From rolling out new Zip drives at all locations on public stations (OMG, what is that thing??) to launching a new OS upgrade system-wide, it behooves those of us in project managemnt to make sure staff are informed. It's simple communication!
Thanks Angela! It was great to present with you.
Scott Brandt and I did our pre-conference workshop Tuesday afternoon. "Make Learning Stick: Creating 5 Star User Centered Training & Instruction"featured a DVD presentation about Bob, a harried trainer faced with training his entire staff on Web mail. We outlined 5 factors to insure training is user-focused and successful everytime!
We had 23 participants and a lot of fun. It was an afternoon session and I must confess by 3pm were were all a little bleary eyed but Scott provided chocolate and we sailed through the rest of the session. Thanks to all who participated!
Here are the workshop leaders hamming it up:
One of my favorite parts of this conference: lisdtening to some forward-thinking speakers outline what the future may hold for library services...
What follows is an annotated congrunt...
Roy Tennant
Theme: Digital Libraries
XML -- Standards must improve
Harvesting data
University faculty are realizing the crisis with scholarly communication
Also: Storage!"As somone who has recently landscaped his house, I can officially say that storage is cheaper than dirt." - Roy Tennant (Quote from theshiftedlibrarian.com) (I roared!)
Mary Kennedy
Theme: Getting Personal Its all about me!
The personal experience is the most important!
Space is a community space (Thats what Im sayin - MS)
Instant Messenger incredible growth in organizations
IM in Libraries:
Immediate access to knowledge
Builds a trusted network of expertise
In a meeting immediate access to ask a question
IM for Online reference
Training at point of need
Information delivery at point of need
Increase credibility & trust
Organization must accept this method of communication
What level of service do you provide
Does the audience understand what it can be used for?
(Can SJCPL use the power of IMs for quick "need to know" data etc?)
Personal portals:
SmartStreet (nice)
My Site
Customize their access
Power of a personal portal
Content Integration:
Just in time content
Ability to delivery just in time info in the context of workflow
Smart Tags in Word
Stephen Abram
Theme: Its PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE - not technology!
(Abrams always rocks my world with his insight and humor. He gets it!)
Workflow integration
IM is the future not letters via email
5% of people over 30 have an IM account
DB info linked via Smart Tags in MS Office docs
Federated search..not having to know where to search anymore
Massive Archives
We will store everything, our IMs etc
Nomadic Use with multiple devices (wifi equipped PDA anyone?) (How are we serving our users who come in via WAP?)
Delivering content at lesson level
Visual Displays we are graphical now, visual not text
Personality and searching
Its an information ocean not a highway!
Frank Cervone, Assistant University Librarian, Northwestern University
Our users dont know what DB the results came from, journal title is important they just want the info.
What can you link to:
What is federated searching?
Squishy at this point
Metasearch: searches that use metadata to make decisions
Megasearch: Dogpile, AlltheWeb, etc.
Can be combined into a superset of federated searching
Why is this so complicated? Not all protocols are supported by vendors: Z39.50
Tips for implementation:
Select software
Select hardware
Gather provider info
Gather holdings info
Input the two (lightweight cataloging of the resources)
Configure the connection information
I am home with a cold-like thing but I wanted to get these up and out for everyone...
What a GREAT conference...
Computers in Libraries 2004 Gallery
(and to Steven, be well...enjoy some rest. Peace.)
I was tickled to meet Mr. Greg Schwartz. I had followed his blog since I discovered it and always found it fascinating.
Here, he congrunts with the best of em!
Bob and I went out to CIL to present in the Learning Track on motivating and celebrating staff with technology. We wanted to show off the work we did on RAY OF LIGHT the SJCPL staff day video. I blogged about it here. ROL is a fast motion day in the life of our library system which illustrates how EVERYONE plays a role in the library's mission!
The presentation was a success and the audience seemed to really like the video! There were some whoops and hollars! Then we did questions and of course the discussion turned to copyright. Yes, we used ROL by Madonna with no clearance but it was as much fair use as it could be: not sold, distributed, or copied.
I told them we tried last year to reach out to Madonna's people and never got anywhere. I think this is a great idea for libraries to internally and externally market themselves -- hey Madonna... can you give me a minute of your time to chat about it?
I really enjoy this hotel! This week at CIL was most enjoyable: a nice view, clean room every afternoon, good products, fast access ($), and a quick trip downstairs to the conference.
Aaron, however, scored a 10th floor Tower Room, including free access to a lounge with complimentary soft drinks, flat TVS, FREE WiFI, and snacks... Sweet...

In 2010 bank united (prior ownership) sent me a letter to stop using my $371,000 credit line since my $550,000 home was now worth less ($350,000 to $400,000). The high $348,500 of credit line borrowing had been reduced to $200,000 by this time. I objected and accepted a $250,000 reduced home equity credit line amount. However,
in november 2011 a similiar notice (new bank owners) arrived. Again, i complained since value of home had actually gone up since 2010, (local property appraiser valued home at $355,000). Bank united wanted a $400 fee to obtain a appraisal, review my credit report, and income tax return. Unpaid credit line balance now about $160,000. I sent a copy of my credit report and score, plus form 1040, property tax assessment, and asked the $400 (insult) fee be waived. Bank united claimed they do not rely on local government assessment which was over 2 times credit loan amount, and again i was not to utilize my previously flexible credit line. I refused to pay the $400 fee so my credit line is frozen. Now, i am hesitant to pay sizable extra prinicipal since i cannot draw it back out if a investment oppertunity presented itself.. Note: i had always paid my (perhaps 6 plus year old) home equity credit line on time, and it fact had rountinely paid extra prinicipal on the debt. My appeal to the new president were never acknowledged. I closed my checking account with them and now consider bankunited, miami fl not to be trusted. Charles l gomes cpa
every day is customer appreciation day at the sarasota branch. it's like being welcomed home when you walk in the bank. i have never experienced such warmth and enthusiasm at a bank until now thank you !!
Bank United in Hialeah has hired a company to boot cars at 65.00 a pop for parking there, AFTER HOURS! Seeing that their neighbor, El Palacio De Los Jugos, has very few parking spaces, this reeks of a predatory money grab. I can only assume that their loans aren't much better!

While watching the Birds last week, I tweeted my excitement for Xaviery Avery when he recorded his first double, triple and RBI against the Yankees. I jokingly used the hashtag #NolanWho and quickly received a few annoyed responses from the Nolan Reimold fan club of Baltimore.
Nothing against Reimold, I was just excited to see what the 22-year-old could do at the big league level.
I've quickly become known as the guy that doesn't like Reimold, but that's neither a fair or true analysis of my thoughts on the Orioles left fielder. I don't dislike him, I enjoy watching him play, I just don't think he's proven enough to believe he's a legitimate big leaguer.
One of my most recent fond memories of watching the Birds live at Camden Yards was Nolan Reimold's walkoff home run against the Toronto Blue Jays on May 27, 2009. I was at the Yard with my dad during the middle of the week for a day game when Reimold delivered the game-winner in the 11th inning. It was a cool moment to witness from the third baseline as Reimold rounded the bag and headed to home for the mobbing he was about to receive from his teammates.
But that was 2009 and I haven't seen enough from Reimold over the past two-plus seasons to prove that he's a real-deal big leaguer.
So I thought that in order to defend my point I would look back at Reimold's career in Baltimore and justify my opinion. Here's a timeline of Reimold's career in Baltimore to date:
My opinion and point with Reimold's career, is that he's proven that he can provide some pop in the Orioles lineup, but hasn't shown he can stay healthy enough to hold onto a spot. At 28-years-old, time is running out.
I've been asked if I think Reimold could become a Jayson Werth type player, who showed everyone that he could live up to expectations long after his time in Baltimore. My opinion is that his path will probably be closer to that of Lou Montanez, another former prospect whose career was plagued by inconvenient injuries.
As I've said here on BSR, on our podcast and numerous times on Twitter, I want to be wrong about Reimold. I hope that he stays healthy from here on out and shows that he can be the 40 home run hitter that Rick Dempsey says he can be. But I can't keep justifying putting an injury plagued 28-year-old in left field when the 22-year-old could be getting big league experience.
