Part TwoDesign Principles: Space And The Figure-Ground Relationship
- By Steven Bradley
- May 16th, 2014
- 15 Comments
If you see graphic design as a process of arranging shapes on a canvas, then you're only seeing half of what you work with. The negative space of the canvas is just as important as the positive elements that we place on the canvas.
Design is an arrangement of both shapes and space. To work more effectively with space, you must first become aware of it and learn to see it — learn to see the shapes that space forms and how space communicates. This is second part of a series on design principles for beginners. The first part covered an introduction to gestalt; the rest of the series (including this post) will build on those gestalt principles and show how many of the fundamental principles we work with as designers have their origin there.Read more...

One fact changing for shareholders is risk of ownership declines and the potential reward increases as the price falls, all else being equal. The company and the market agreed with Let the Bidding Begin for BlackBerry.
Fairfax Financial wasn't interested in actually buying the company and only wanted to generate interest and urgency from potential suitors. The board ousted Thorsten Heins as CEO because he really should have finalized the sale before BB10, not wait until after. Now it's up to you to decide if I'm right that BlackBerry is worth over $8 or not.
With shares near $6, the difference doesn't represent much on a per dollar share basis, but as a percentage, a 25% or more appreciation is significant. Make no mistake, BlackBerry the company (verses the stock) has declined in value over the six months, but I believe the shares have fallen proportionally more, creating a reasonable risk vs. reward. For this reason, I've recently started buying shares in my own account for the first time.
As I type in my Las Vegas hotel room (I'm attending the SMX Social Media Marketing Conference to gain an insider's perspective), I can't help but be reminded that an axiom applicable to Vegas equally applies to Wall Street: "No, things don't have to get better, and yes, it can get worse."
In other words, BlackBerry is far from a sure thing, and I don't predict the future, only the odds. As always, perform your own due diligence and never leave yourself without a life jacket.

From the December 21 edition of Fox News' Media Buzz:
From the November 9 edition of Media Buzz:

From the November 9 edition of Fox News' Media Buzz:
There's a glaring hole in Weekly Standard senior writer Steve Hayes' argument that media figures do not typically warmonger because "there was no drumbeat for war in Syria" -- he himself called for U.S. military intervention against the Assad regime.
Many media figures -- including former fans of the Iraq War -- are calling on President Obama to intervene in Syria against the Islamic State (ISIS or ISIL) with military power. Currently, the administration has conducted airstrikes against the State in Iraq and is considering further action in Syria, though officials have said there will be no U.S. combat troops on the ground.
Fox's Juan Williams pointed out the increased calls for war during the September 7 edition of Fox's Media Buzz, suggesting that media seem to consistently favor war over peace, perhaps for a ratings boost that international conflicts could bring television news. Williams noted that today's calls seem to parallel media's eagerness for military intervention in Syria back in 2013, over human rights abuses from the Bashar al-Assad regime.
But Hayes, who is also a Fox contributor, disagreed, asking "which media favored going to Syria?" According to Hayes, "There was no drumbeat for war in Syria from the media":
HAYES: If there had been, if the media were sort of predisposed to want war, to want the drama as Juan suggests, we would have seen that with respect to Syria. We didn't see that at all.
In fact, Hayes and his Weekly Standard colleagues were perhaps the loudest in the chorus of media figures calling for war with Syria just last year.
Fox News host Howard Kurtz criticized CBS News political analyst Frank Luntz for failing to disclose during a CBS appearance about a congressional election that Luntz had previously been a paid consultant for the candidate.
"I think you should have," Kurtz said during an August 10 interview with Luntz on his #MediaBuzz media criticism program, "because it just would have been leveling with the audience, hey, this is not some stranger."
Luntz discussed then-House Majority Leader Eric Cantor's (R-VA) surprise primary defeat on the June 11 edition of CBS This Morning, calling the loss "a blow for conversation" that is "bad for the country" because Cantor was "a pipeline to Americans who just wanted people to get things done." But neither he nor CBS acknowledged that Cantor's campaign had paid Luntz's company more than $15,000 in fees, as Media Matters documented.
Asked by Kurtz about the lack of disclosure, Luntz said that while "People raised that as an issue," he did not think it was necessary because he was introduced by CBS "as a Republican."
Luntz's excuse is consistent with that of a CBS spokesperson who told The Washington Post's Erik Wemple in June that the network had provided sufficient disclosure because Luntz's "work as a strategist for Republicans was disclosed on the broadcast."
But as Wemple noted, "When it comes to getting people to say favorable things about other people, there's nothing like a consultant-client relationship to facilitate things. When money changes hands, journalism ethics must pay heed." Media ethicists agreed in interviews with Media Matters, ripping CBS News for "outrageous" behavior that could be considered "not only bad, but corrupt."
CBS has had repeated disclosure issues with Luntz, whose work for Republican candidates frequently creates a conflict of interest in his on-air analysis.
Fox contributor Lauren Ashburn complained that "it's just not fair" for critics to hold Fox News accountable for any misinformation and biased commentary made on-air by the network's paid hosts and contributors, suggesting the network shouldn't be held responsible for a recent conspiracy theory about the timing of Benghazi suspect Ahmed Abu Khattala's capture, which originated on Fox.
Khattala was taken into U.S. custody on June 17 for his role in helping lead the 2012 attacks on a U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya.
Fox News hosts and correspondents began immediately questioning the curious timing of Khattala's capture, speculating that it was intended to help Hillary Clinton's book tour and Fox News interview, ignoring the months of planning and preparation spent prior to Khattala's capture. The network even attempted to legitimize its hosts' conspiracy theories by pretending the speculation originated outside of the network.
On the June 22 edition of Fox News' MediaBuzz, Ashburn defended her network, complaining "it's just not fair" for critics to hold Fox News accountable for the conspiracy theories pushed by its hosts and contributors on-air if their commentary isn't an official statement from the network. Discussing criticisms the network received for questioning the timing of the Benghazi suspect's capture, Ashburn said, "the more outlandish the comments, the more the websites are going to say 'oh my gosh, Fox News said this, and they made this point,' and it's funny because Fox News didn't say that, those individual contributors said that." Ashburn concluded "it's just not fair to do that":
Fox News host Howard Kurtz criticized his own network's coverage of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, blasting the network for elevating Bundy's anti-government agenda and turning the lawless rancher into a folk hero before falling silent when Bundy's racist remarks came to light.
Fox News darling Cliven Bundy rose to his folk hero status after he failed to comply with court orders directing him to remove his trespassing cattle from public land, following decades of refusing to pay required grazing fees. Fox News and other right-wing media elevated the story with substantial coverage, championing Bundy and his supporters as they threatened violence against federal law enforcement officials.
But when Cliven Bundy revealed his racist worldview, Fox News fell silent, abruptly ending their incessant promotion of the lawless rancher. The New York Times first reported that Bundy had questioned whether black Americans were "better off as slaves" or "better off under government subsidy," and Media Matters quickly obtained video of the racist remarks.
On the April 27 edition his Fox News show #MediaBuzz, Kurtz posited that Fox News "fell seriously short" in their coverage of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy once his "blatantly racist" comments were revealed, after having previously built Bundy up "as a symbol of resistance":
Media critics on Fox News and CNN criticized a recent article that outed the inventor of a golf putter as a transgender woman. The two networks' history of problematic transgender coverage suggests that CNN and Fox could stand to take their own advice.
On January 15, the sports website Grantland published a lengthy article by Caleb Hannan about Dr. Essay Anne Vanderbilt, the founder of Yar Golf and inventor of a "scientifically superior" golf club. In the story, which Hannan described as "the strangest story I've ever worked on," Hannan outed "Dr. V" as a trans woman. Hannan wrote that during the course of his reporting, Vanderbilt resisted his outing of her. At the end of the article, he revealed that Vanderbilt had killed herself.
Hannan's digging into Vanderbilt's personal life -- and his problematic framing of a transgender woman's identity as "strange" - sparked fierce criticism and generated questions about the role his invasive reporting may have played in Vanderbilt's suicide. On January 26, CNN's Reliable Sources and Fox's #MediaBuzz weighed in on the controversy, with hosts and panelists on both shows agreeing that Grantland should have consulted a trans person before proceeding with the article.
On Reliable Sources, host Brian Stelter invited ESPN.com's Christina Kahrl and GLAAD's Tiq Milan to discuss the story and the ethical questions it raised:
MILAN: What journalists can take away from this is exactly what [Grantland editor-in-chief] Bill Simmons said in his letter ... to consult with LGBT organizations like GLAAD or like the National Center of Trans Equality to see how to better -- what are the best practices to deal with situations like this.
STELTER: It goes back to one of these journalistic maxims that diversity is so important to have in newsrooms. But I wonder if that's easier said than done sometimes for these places. I think you made a point, Christina, that the article was being written for an audience that could have learned a lot about the transgender community if only the research had been done.
Meanwhile, on Fox's #MediaBuzz, host Howard Kurtz dubbed Grantland's story a "media fail":
Fox News media critic Howard Kurtz reneged on his promise to cover a new biography offering a harsh critique of Fox News CEO Roger Ailes on Fox's media show, #MediaBuzz.
On the January 19 edition of #MediaBuzz, Kurtz said he would cover the newly released book, New York writer Gabriel Sherman's The Loudest Voice In The Room, on the following week's show, saying:
First, a programming note. A biography of Fox News chairman Roger Ailes by a New York Magazine reporter has been getting plenty of media attention. We will talk about it, on next week's show.
But Kurtz did not report on the book as promised during his January 26 show, as Variety noted. Segments featured on the show instead included discussions of Glenn Beck's time at Fox News, media coverage of Wendy Davis' campaign for Texas governor, and the Chris Christie bridge scandal.
Fox News has attempted to discredit the Loudest Voice for more than a year, attacking Sherman personally and reportedly firing a top Fox executive for leaking information to the author. Ailes also cooperated with conservative journalist Zev Chafets' 2013 biography Roger Ailes, Off Camera, reportedly "because he was eager to preempt Sherman's version with a more favorable and hopefully sympathetic account of his legacy."
A review of Sherman's book found that Fox was right to be worried; unlike Off Camera, Sherman's biography revealed an unflattering portrait of Ailes as a vindictive, paranoid partisan who uses his cable news network as a clearinghouse for Republican propaganda.
Media Matters has previously found that Kurtz has been giving his employer a pass since taking the position as Fox's media analyst last year. An analysis of Kurtz's television appearances and online columns during his first two months on the job found that he almost entirely avoided criticizing Fox News, including ignoring controversies related to the network that had been widely covered elsewhere.
Variety's Brian Lowry noted that Kurtz's failure to report on Sherman's Ailes biography once again calls his credibility into question:
For in-house media critics to have any credibility, they have to be willing to at least occasionally explore the shortcomings of their employers. And given all the coverage regarding Ailes' concern regarding the book and his alleged campaign against the author, Kurtz looked caught between the proverbial rock and hard place -- so much so that ignoring the book would have been preferable to creating the appearance of acting as Ailes' surrogate.
Nevertheless, to promise coverage -- as Kurtz did on air at the close of last week's program -- and then renege creates an impression of Kurtz as Ailes' lap dog. And it's not like there weren't ways to approach Sherman's biography in a skeptical manner, especially after New York Times critic Janet Maslin panned the book, providing some cover from one of the bastions of liberal media Fox News so regularly derides.

Did this to my friend once. Texted him and asked him to call my phone since I had lost mine. He called and left a message telling me my voice made me sound like a dumbass. It was awesome telling him the obvious truth.

What if "I dropped my phone and i can't find it" is a code for something?
What if he hasn't "Found his phone" and he can't "text him" because of that?

AKRON, OHIO (Dec. 27, 2:45 p.m. ET) — Executives at PolyOne Corp. and several other publicly held plastics materials firms may have delayed buying calendars for 2013. That's because their per-share stock prices have done so well in 2012 that they probably don't want the year to end.

Is my husband being unreasonable? - page 7
I currently work a med-surg position that is 12 hour days with no weekends. We all know how hard and challenging med-surg is and I have no great love for it. In fact when my required six months is up I'm looking to change to a... Read More
- 1Nov 2, '12 by Spidey's mom, ADN, BSN, RN GuideQuote from cardiacrocksI was only clarifying my "dream job" comment . . . hoping that people wouldn't interpret my comment as saying there is no dream job and you must stay at a job where you are mistreated, etc.This I know, I'm just curious what job "she" is trying to obtain, that's all. I for one know there is no such thing as "the perfect job." As a matter of fact, nothing in life is perfect. Also, no where did she mention that she was being abused at her current job, she just doesn't care for med-surg, not sure where you came up with that statement. We all have different outlook on life and our jobs, I for one do work a lot, I work a great deal of over time as well, that is what works for me, I know it doesn't work for everyone. She can do whatever she wishes to do, that is her business, I get that. I'm just wondering what type of job she is looking to obtain, I'm just nosy I guess, lol.
I did not think she was being mistreated at her job.
Sorry if I was not clear.
I too am curious about what job she is looking for and that is a legit question.
I took a job that works for our family. Very part-time for hospice and part-time for the school district. I'm at my son's school 3 days a week. I'm usually finished when he is finished with school.
I love hospice but school nursing is not my dream job. But I get medical insurance and I get weekends and summers and holidays off, just like the teachers.
That's worth it to me.
- 2Nov 2, '12 by rita359Have not read many responses but as a mother of 2 now grown sons who were left alone for a couple hour after school until I got home from day shift I vote NO. Too many bad things can happen even while you are there. Kids make bad decisions, even the most responsible give in to peer pressure. You do not want to look back with regret.
- 0Nov 2, '12 by Nurse ABCI loved working on OB. I wasn't trying to hide anything-just didn't think it really mattered to the discussion. As it is now, my kids get home at 3pm and I don't get home until 8pm. That's a lot of time by themselves. I don't like it. Of course, my husband is off some of those days or is getting home around 6pm or leaving at 6pm for work. If I worked nights I would get to see them after school, help with homework, and get supper before I left. I felt like that may be better than getting home in time for them to get ready for bed. I'm also looking for jobs out of the hospital but until I find something I want my time there more bearable. I'm not being abused but I'm tired of working short-staffed, having 7-8 pts by myself, being made to work more than I was hired for, etc. Will the other job in a different area be perfect-of course not. I was not expecting it to. I know exactly what it's like and it can be very stressful too but at least I would enjoy the patient population more. Like I said, I'm still trying to figure out the best plan of action.
- 1Nov 3, '12 by Spidey's mom, ADN, BSN, RN GuideIt's been awhile since I've had that many patients. I understand your wish to change, I really do.
There's one member here on AN who works weekends (I think every other weekend) in post-partum so she can be home for her family the rest of the time. Her husband is with their kiddoes when she is at work.
When I worked bedside at our small rural hospital, I worked OB, ER, Post-op, acute . . basically everywhere. I liked ER best. Our shift was 0300 to 1500. So, I was up at 0130 to shower and get to work at 0245 when report began. I worked more than full-time. I did it for 9 years and I was exhausted most of the time. It was next to impossible to get enough sleep - who can fall asleep at 7 p.m. with 3 kids in the house? Two of my kids had some trouble with rebellion - which included more than one car accident. My husband worked out of town during the week until winter set in. If I could go back in time, I would not work full time, I would have found another way to be home for my kids. And I would have put a lock on my computer a lot sooner, I would have canceled cable.
We had a surprise baby when my kids were 18, 16 and 12. THAT was enough to convince me to leave the bedside. Now I work around my kiddoes schedule, I don't miss his games or plays or school parties or band recitals.
- 3Nov 3, '12 by stefanyjoyI don't think it's fair to your older children to have them assume parenting roles. My mother was a night shift nurse and I always had to hold down the fort, and yes, there were emergencies sometimes. I am in agreement with your husband, sorry.
- 1Nov 5, '12 by JmiamiI think just for the kids sake it would be good for them not to be left without a parent. There's something to be said about the security of always have a parent there through the night.
- 1Nov 5, '12 by LearningByMistakesMay I ask whose job provides the benefits for your family? If YOUR job provides the benefits, then you YOUR job should be the priority.
However, if you do not provide the benefits for your family, why is your husband the bad guy here, as so many have made him out to be?
- 0Nov 5, '12 by Nurse ABCThey both provide the benefits. His does not provide dental or vision and my medical is cheaper but more restrictive than his. I don't think he's being the bad guy for worrying about his kids. I think we both have valid points. Him worrying about the kids all night and me with feeling like I'll never get to do what I want career wise. I'm not going to sacrifice my family to do it. They are more important than my career. I'm hoping we can figure out a compromise that makes both of us happy.

21 Inmates Graduate from Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counseling Programs
A total of 21 inmates at the Lexington County Detention Center will graduate at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, April 12 from two faith-based alcohol and drug abuse counseling programs that are offered to male and female inmates who are housed at the detention facility. The 21 inmates successfully completed the program while being housed at the Detention Center.
Lexington County Sheriff James R. Metts said the Lexington County Sheriff's Department will conduct a graduation ceremony for the 21 inmates at 11:30 a.m. on Friday at a courtroom that is adjacent to the front entrance of the Detention Center at the Lexington County James R. Metts Law Enforcement Complex, 521 Gibson Road, Lexington.
A total of 18 inmates will graduate from U-Turn for Christ, which is a four-week alcohol and drug abuse counseling program that Calvary Chapel Church in Lexington administers at the Detention Center, Metts said. The sheriff said the following 18 inmates successfully completed U-Turn for Christ while housed at the Detention Center: James L. Mitchell, Joseph L. Fennell, Michael W. Cox, Thomas Christenham, Michael L. Brooks, James Porter, Darryl B. Ruff, Michael A. Taylor, Antwain E. Brisbon, Dave Wise, William I. Satterwhite, Jadaryl A. Hinton, David A. Boger, Tabatha R. Floyd, Lacey R. Langford, Francina L. Walker, Maurice N. Baker and David M. Gibson.
A total of three inmates successfully completed Celebrate Recovery, which is an eight-week alcohol and drug abuse counseling program that First Baptist Church of Lexington administers at the Detention Center, Metts said. The sheriff said the following inmates completed Celebrate Recovery: Charles Eric Jackson, Albert Wallace and Lisa Bifield.
The goal of Celebrate Recovery is to enhance the spiritual lives of inmates by showing inmates how they can use their faith to overcome personal problems and experience emotional growth in their lives, Metts said. Celebrate Recovery and U-Turn for Christ reflect the Sheriff's Department mission of providing professional law enforcement services that enhance the quality of life for all people in Lexington County.

Madonsela Lashes Out at Critics
Public Protector, Thuli Madonsela, has accused some people in society of allegedly targeting her office and interfering with her powers, as protected by the South Africa Constitution.
Addressing about 4 000 students and local community members at the University of Limpopo's Turfloop campus in Mankweng, Madonsela said out of several other Chapter Nine institutions in the country, her office is the only one which people are quick to interfere with, regardless of the constitution which protects it.
Madonsela, who was delivering a public lecture on ethics, governance of public office bearers and politicians, says everyone including politicians should be held accountable to promote justice and freedom for all.

Court Warned Against Minister's Powers
The Helen Suzman Foundation (HSF) has told the Constitutional Court that the police minister's powers to suspend the head of the Hawks are too broad and open to abuse.
HSF's David Unterhalter told the court the prescripts governing the power to suspend are vaguely defined, adding that, "Grounds of suspension are not specified."
Unterhalter, who warned that, "An exercise of power without proper review is dangerous," argues that the minister's powers of suspension are not specified, and a suspension made on 'a ministerial whim' could disrupt the office of the Hawks, with 'huge consequences'.

CASAC Criticises Zuma Over Nkandla
The Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution (CASAC) says that President Jacob Zuma's failure to account properly on the Public Protector's report on his Nkandla homestead shows contempt for Parliament and for the Constitution.
In a press statement, CASAC points out that, "The president should be allowed to complete his answers to the questions that had been tabled for answer on 21 August 2014, and to respond to any supplementary questions in the National Assembly."
Meanwhile, Public Protector, Thuli Madonsela, wrote that, "I am concerned that the decision you have made regarding the police minister gives him power he does not have under law, which is to review my decision taken in pursuit of the powers of administrative scrutiny I am given... by the Constitution."

Madonsela: SA, An Unequal Society
Public Protector, Thuli Madonsela, has described South Africa as one of the most unequal societies in the world.
In a speech delivered at the University of Stellenbosch, Madonsela says the country is one of the most unequal society despite the constitutional promises which include the substantive notion of equality.
"Compounding the situation is that poverty and unemployment have worsened and also the fact that, that too follows the contours of racial, gender and other forms of structural inequality or discrimination," she explained.

Ban on Uganda's Anti-Gay Law Welcomed
The joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) has welcomed the decision of Uganda's Constitutional Court to strike down a law banning the promotion of homosexuality punishable by life imprisonment.
The anti-gay legislation was deemed null and void by the court on the technicality that it was not passed by a required parliamentary quorum.
On the substance of Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Act of 2014, there was no ruling from this court that struck down the law because not enough lawmakers had been present to vote on the bill, that aside, the decision was welcomed by UNAIDS executive director, Michel Sedibe, who called it a great day for social justice and where the rule of law had prevailed.

No Gay Rights' Echos State - MinisterZambia has reiterated its position not to recognise gay rights, saying that 'gaysm' runs counter to the country's culture and is an affront to the Constitution which recognises the country as a Christian Nation.
The country's foreign affairs deputy minister, Gabriel Namulambe, who also urged foreign missions accredited to Zambia to respect the views of the country about gay rights, says the country will abide by Christian values.
"I want to make it very clear here that as Government, we have the Constitution to protect and in the preamble of our Constitution, Zambia is a Christian Nation and as such we live by the Christian values and we will not be able to recognise gay rights," he explained.

SANEF: Info Bill Must Go to ConCourt
The South African National Editors' Forum (SANEF) calls for the Protection of State Information Bill to be sent to the Constitutional Court for ratification before it is signed into law.
In a statement to mark International Press Freedom Day, SANEF's chairperson, Mpumelelo Mkhabela, says a public interest defence clause in the Bill would truly enhance the ability of media to assist in the fight against corruption.
Mkhabela notes that, "The Bill is arguably the biggest threat to press freedom and freedom of expression since the dawn of democracy. We stand ready to challenge it in court should the president sign it into law."

Bill Raises Gay Alarm
The Women Empowerment and Gender Equality Bill has been criticised in Parliament for not making provision for the advancement of gays and lesbians in the workplace.
This emerged on 30 January 2014 during the second day of public hearings on the bill, which is being sponsored by the Department of Women, Children and People with Disabilities.
In its submission, the Legal Resources Centre argues that the bill should not limit issues of gender equality and inequality as being issues between men and women, and girls and boys.
Meanwhile, the Triangle Project, an organisation that campaigns against discrimination against lesbians, gays, bisexuals and other sexual minorities, objects to the bill's definition of 'gender' as unconstitutional.

Scott Disappointed With NGOs
Zambian vice president, Guy Scott, says he is disappointed that non-governmental organisations (NGOs) are causing commotion over the draft constitution.
Dr. Scott explained that there is no new constitution and that what has been leaked is just a report on recommendations for the document.
The vice president was responding to questions from teachers who wanted to find out what stage the new constitution had reached following the perceived impasse between government and civil society organisations.

Yacoob Calls for Freedom From Poverty in SA
According to Zak Yacoob, a retired Constitutional Court judge, freedom from poverty in the South African context is one of the most important freedoms.
Delivering the fifth annual Helen Suzman memorial lecture in Johannesburg, Yacoob, said that as South Africa's democracy moved towards its 20th anniversary, far too many of its citizens still suffer from poverty.
"Unless we reach a situation where all of us agree on a particular minimum level of humanity and a particular threshold at [which] people would be able to live, and unless we commit ourselves to that, we will be doomed to disaster," he warned.

How Hospitals Address Patient Experience via Mobile Apps
The number of people using mobile technology is on the rise. In 2008, the number of smartphone subscribers was 15 million. That number almost doubled in 2009, reaching 26 million, and is expected to grow to roughly 142 million in 2011, according to Nielsen Mobile, which tracks wireless trends.
So it's no surprise that creating smartphone applications is an area that hospitals want to take advantage of. "It is another new way of marketing and interacting with patients and potential consumers," says Barbara Mackovic, senior marketing manager at Louisville,
KY–based Jewish Hospital & St. Mary's HealthCare (JHSMH). The world of communication is changing so rapidly, Mackovic says, that once you master one thing, it is already out of date. Mobile technology is "something that all marketers have to be aware of and figure out how that pertains to their target market," she says.
Melissa Tizon, communications director at Seattle's Swedish Medical Center, agrees. "At the end of the day, it is about what kind of experience patients are having with you. And if you can make that experience easier by putting something convenient on their phone, then those are the kinds of things that we want to do."
Although mobile technology is an important feature that hospital marketers shouldn't overlook, they also shouldn't create an app just to be able to say they have one.
"There are so many [apps] that people download that aren't used, so you have to think about what is useful," says Tizon. Here is a look behind the two health systems' mobile strategies.

The real question is why hospitals are waiting so long to offer an app. With millions of dollars in the balance based on patient satisfaction (read: Value-Based Purchasing), a mobile app is a no-brainer. And relative to the cost of most hospital technology, apps are reasonably priced. Here are 5 reasons hospitals should launch an app ASAP: http://goo.gl/n1BR4

Hospitals and other providers thinking about investing in the development of smartphone apps should keep the following fact in mind: "only 5 percent (of smartphone apps) are still used one month after downloading." For source citation: www.healthecommunications.wordpress.com Steve Wilkins
Kim Larabee (7/7/2011 at 2:34 PM)
The MHealth apps developed at Vertiglo keep a few things in mind related to the article above. > The application has to be super functional for young and old > The article mentions the increase in use. It's imperative that security and layers on encryption for the data collected is in place before roll-out > Focusing on the core services can't be overstated. At Vertiglo, we out into place a mechanism to make changes and revisions in realtime. This was evident with the Veterans app we are in beta testing. > The success should be customer centric Great job @Carrie_Vaughan Kim @vertiglo www.vertiglo.com

Kansas City has a BSA Supply Division Scout Shop. The manager is pretty good people. If they are made or licensed by BSA, she''ll know.
816-942-9333 gets you the receptionist at Heart of America Council. Ask her for the Scout Shop.
My scout store carries stamps for the various Cub Scout ranks, AOL, Eagle, BSA emblem. Never saw any for the Boy Scout ranks.
Just checked out the scout store web site. Go to CRAFTS, LEATHER, LEATHER STAMP TOOLS (Look for leather square with Tiger) They have a list of stamps, but none for Boy Scout ranks, POR, or Adult Ranks.
The description indicates "Now with more detail". Hope so. I have a set of the Cub Scout ranks I bought to allow my den to make leather neckerchief slides. Stamps made very poor impressions.

hey guys, this will be my first post, mainly just looking the site over and came upon this post. I''m like one of the other guys here, I have seen Cub Scout rank, AOl, and BSA stamps from Tandy, but no rank stamps. Leatherwork is a hobby of mine and I have seen ads from companies that make custom stamps, but they are expensive. I''m at work for 7 days, but when I get home I will look thru my leather magazines and provide the names to these companies if you like. tlowry

CHARLES E. TANDY, one of Todd County's young and enter-prising farmers and stock-breeders, was born November 12, 1860, in Todd County, Ky. He is a son of Dr. N. M. and Margaret J. (Jesup) Tandy. The latter was a daughter of Col. Samuel B. Jesup, born November, 1792, died August, 1866, and Catherine Jesup, born March 1795, died July, 1870. Subject's father was born 1810, died July, 1881; his mother born 1819, died August, 1877. Parents were natives of Christian and Todd Counties respectively. Our subject received more than an ordinary education, having attended Fairview and Olmstead Academies two years and Bethel College one year, after which he engaged in farming at home. In November, 1882, he located where he now lives on what is called Col. Jesup's farm; it consists of 250 acres of which 150 are in a good state of cultivation, improved with buildings, etc. Mr. Tandy is engaged in general farming and in breeding and training the best of Mambrino horses. Has a track on his farm and is energetic and active in procuring the finest quality of trotting stock. He was married November 23, 1882, to Miss Clara B. Layne, daughter of Alexander and A. M. (Elgin) Layne. This union is blessed with the birth of one child-David H. Mrs. Tandy is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

RHINEBECK, N.Y. -- The pages of Country Living Magazine come to life in Dutchess County this weekend.
It was the Second annual Country Living Fair at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck.
The three-day event brought 240 vendors from 29 states to the Hudson Valley. Those who attended were able to shop for antiques, art, attend how-to seminars, and even meet the editors of the magazine.
Organizers say it's a way for people to see the things they would normally only see in the magazine.
"For people to be able to experience the pages of the magazine in person, which is something you don't often get to do. to see all the kinds of things people use to furnish their homes. To be able to buy them, touch them, see them," said Jeanne Stella, Manager of Operations, Country Living Fair.
Organizers estimate around 25,000 people attended the fair during its three days. Country Living Magazine also hosts fairs annually in Ohio and Georgia.

Discussion in 'Remote, Acoustic Music, Location Recording' started by bigtree, Mar 15, 2011.
Anyone done any comparisons between the three listed:
Prism Orpheus
Lynx Aurora
Wish I had the time/money to get all three and compare. They're all so good, it's mostly what features you prefer.
That said, I'm totally happy & in love with my FF800. I'll never give it up, and I wouldn't mind having a few more. (The Orpheus has me tempted, though....) For what I do - often under 10 mic inputs, it's more than enough, and the matrix output feeds everything; monitor speakers, headphones, SP-DIF backup recorders, you name it.
For external pre's - I have the Grace M802, w/8 channels, I route directly from the Grace DB-50 output into the FF800 with a 6" short breakout cable, into the eight TRS 1/4" jacks in the back of the FF800. With the two mic pre's on channels 9 & 10, I now have a 10-channel HQ recording system that will interface with my laptop running Samp/Sequoia. The FF800 mic pre's are very good on their own, but I often save those two inputs for final, last-ditch inputs; sometimes just house/ambient mics, etc.
I could have gotten an AES-EBU interface from Grace, which would have kept the A/D conversion inside the box, but would have had to send it to them for the install, and it was very very pricey; more $$ than the FF800, with none of the input/output & routing matrix features. Glad I didn't go that route. 6" of modified cable doesn't seem to make much of a change in the sound; the FF800 converters are rock solid, and sound great. ;-)
Haven't got time to do it myself, but I'd like to see someone just do an equipment list and price comparison for the three hooked up and ready to go for 8 channel and 16 channel operation.
What do you mean exactly, Bob?
Do a total price comparison for each one (cable, interface to get either 8 or 16 IO)?
I'm sure stuck on making an upgrade from FF800's though. The FF800 are so stable but i would like to improve my sound there. My Lavry AD10 is a big enough improvement that I know what I'm missing so I'm on a quest to upgrade. I think the aurora 16 is the best all round but haven never compared.
The Orpheus is pretty expensive and I'm assuming it sounds pretty fine too. I'd expect it to be a big improvement over the FF800 but double the price and FW.
If I didn't have great pre's the FF800 is the best product all round for what you get but if I'm paying for pre's that i don't want or need, I'm thinking on selling at least one of them.
Exactly. Every time I look at converters I find there are a lot of add-ons that you need to match the connectivity of something like the FF800 - not to mention four decent pres.
I hear you and sure agree. I think the FF800 is the best thing going. They are so portable, completely reliable and sound great! Not to mention, very reasonable for what you get.
2 new FF800 are approx $3200 and you are setup. 8 pre's to boot, what a deal! Its a no brainer, best deal to get you going. If you aren't wanting to improve your sound, I see no point in looking further.
A new Aurora 16 is $3000 plus $600 for the interface. If it sounds better its worth the price. But I don't need the FF800 pre's.
The Orpheus is $4000 but only 8 IO. To me this would be the choice remote converter going.
I see why Lynx Aurora is the choice if you don't need built in pre's.
There's another way to think of it. For $1700 for the FF800 and $2000 for the UA 4-710D or the Focusrite 428 + converter card you have 8 pres + 8 more analog inputs for almost exactly the same price as the Aurora 16 with no preamps.
Personally I wouldn't invest in a combo like that. Its attractive, but I don't think a good investment. The converters are going to be dated. Its like buying into Pro Tools HD don't you think?
Found this over at the slutzDead Link Removed)
Should add the Lavry Blacks AD DA combo $1600 per channel. And it is sweet.
Metric Halo looks pretty cool but lost me once I saw they didn't support win7.
I assume you are referring to the 4-710D or the 428 + converter card. If so, I agree that the converters have a much shorter life than the preamps. But the preamps will still be there when the converters are obsolete. So it may work out as an investment in the long run. Depends on the quality of all the elements. I have not tried either unit, but I'm interested. All integrated systems have this problem, but that doesn't mean that a component system is always the best solution.
I wonder who is making their converters, do you know?
The following was in another thread.
Thanks Bob, I remember asking Hueseph a while back. Man, I have too much going on in my head. I really need to downsize and get back to just music.
Looks like they are in Tokyo AKM Semiconductor, Inc.
Cirrus is another Analog and Digital Processing ICs, Semiconductor Company, Cirrus Logic and it appears these two companies are really responsible for all this.

DOOM 4 beta, Yokai Watch & Final Fantasy on PC
by Max Scoville
Hey everybody, I'm back from Japan! And here's your quasi-timely news update for the first two thirds of this week. Irrational Games closed, pre-ordering Wolfenstein: The New Order gets you a beta for the new and technically unannounced DOOM game. Square Enix has trademarked "Shinra Company," there's a possibility of new Final Fantasy games on PC in the future, and in the meantime, Final Fantasies VII, VIII, and XIV are currently on sale.
Level 5 is getting me all hot and bothered by teasing a western release of Yokai Watch, which is selling like adorable ghostcakes in Japan.

Daylight scared the sh*t out of me
by Steven Hansen
Daylight? More like Darklight. Because it's so fu*king dark in here and I can't god damn see and there are fu*king ghosts everywhere god damn it Hamza why did you make me preview this game.
This is what I remembered a few minutes into Zombie Studios' Daylight: "Horror games scare me. Why am I playing this, oh my god, why am I playing this?"
Daylight aims to address the issue of scares in games being one and done. With procedurally generated levels, which can scale depending on difficulty (more floors, dead ends, and so on at higher difficulties), and a variety of scare tactics, it could be successful at consistently providing different experiences, encouraging multiple playthroughs and experience sharing.
I only played through a small portion of the game, so I don't know how it will hold up over an entire playthrough, let alone multiple. What I do know is that the bit I played had my heart racing faster than any game I can remember playing.view full story + comments
Getting spooked in Daylight while wearing an Oculus Rift
by Steven Hansen
Sensory deprivation can be relaxing. It can also be terrifying in extreme measures, like the sound proof acoustic chamber that causes its guests to hallucinate. Wearing an Oculus Rift is a little bit like that. Especially in a first-person game like the upcoming PC and PS4 spook tale Daylight.

I have been "pre-diabetic" for the last 10 years - so I try to get my blood sugar levels tested regularly. But this year, I have been avoiding having the test done because I was sure my blood sugar had gotten worse.
I HAVE been improving how I eat - but lately, I have been having headaches when I eat something sugary and my eyesight has gotten noticeably worse - so I was afraid this was it - the year the Dr was gonna say "Diabetes."
SURPRISE! My blood sugar has actually improved! I am still "pre-diabetic," but it is less than it has been the last couple tests. My fasting glucose was 110 - still outside of normal, but better - (they want less than 100, and diabetic is considered 140 or more). My A1c was 5.8 - just a bit over the <5.7 they wanted.
Now, it has been less than a month since I really cut back on sugar, and I have had a couple bad/cheating days - but even so, it has improved. I feel it is a very promising sign.

The Best Tweets of All Time
Some of the best tweets of all time feature - no surprise here - celebrities. What are the best tweets of all time? The best tweets ever may come from tech darlings (issuing the first-ever tweet), celebs having exestiential crises (we're looking at YOU, Kanye West) or having all-out battles with other celebs (hello, Ice T and Aimee Mann). But not all of the greatest Tweets (of all time) are from household names, oh no. Some of the most well-known Tweets have come from everyday people who just happen to be in the right place at the right time, smartphone in hand, as historic events unfolded.
What the best tweets of all time? Take a look here and you'll see some of the greatest ever.
Read on for more info about some of the best, most important (arguable, we know) Tweets ever. Don't see your favorite on the list? Add it! Definitely add it.

@ConanOBrien Follows One PersonSarah Killen. The name ring a bell? It should. On March 5, 2010, Conan O'Brien, aka @ConanOBrien, decided to make her very famous in the Twitterverse. With one Tweet, he definitely changed Sarah's life. Apparently, Conan made up his mind that he would follow one (random) person on Twitter - and Sarah Killen was that person. Conan Tweeted:
"I've decided to follow someone at random. She likes peanut butter and gummy dinosaurs. Sarah Killen, your life is about to change."
Yes, 19-year-old Sarah Killen, aka @LovelyButton, who likes peanut butter and dinosaurs, was the first person Conan ever followed on Twitter. And years later? She's STILL the ONLY person he's following - despite having nearly 3.5 million followers. Sarah's since gotten married (congrats!), so her name is now Sarah Slowik, but to us she'll always be that girl that Conan follows.

Kevin Smith: Too Fat to Fly Southwest?In February of 2010, filmmaker Kevin Smith, @ThatKevinSmith, took to his Twitter to announce to his 1.6 million followers that he'd been kicked off of a Southwest Airlines flight at Oakland International Airport because he was a "safety risk" - essentially, he was deemed too fat to fly. This one Tweet set off a firestorm (and no doubt, a PR nightmare for SWA), as major media organizations picked up the Tweet and began following the story.
Here's the original Tweet:
"Dear @SouthwestAir - I know I'm fat, but was Captain Leysath really justified in throwing me off a flight for which I was already seated?"
Southwest responded (via Twitter) that it was trying to fix things, to get in touch with Smith to remedy the situation, even apologizing for the issue.

@jkrums Tweets Hudson River Plane CrashTalk about a tweet seen 'round the world: In mid-January of 2009, a US Airways jet made an emergency landing in New York's Hudson River. News of the event quickly spread throughout the Twitterverse, but nothing was as powerful as this Tweet and photo of Flight 1549 from ferry passenger Janis Krums, @jkrums:
"http://twitpic.com/135xa - There's a plane in the Hudson. I'm on the ferry going to pick up the people. Crazy."
Crazy indeed. And powerful. This one, surreal image of passengers standing on the wings of the plane let everyone know just how remarkable this landing really was...

Twitter User @reallyvirtual Tweets Osama bin Laden Compound RaidWe mentioned earlier that some of the most important (and best) Tweets don't always come from celebrities. This is a VERY good example: When @reallyvirtual, aka Sohaib Athar, Tweeted about a helicopter hovering overhead in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on May 1, 2011, little did he know he was actually live blogging the raid on terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden's compound. Athar Tweeted:
"Helicopter hovering above Abbottabad at 1AM (is a rare event)."
A rare event, indeed. As in, a once-in-a-lifetime event, because U.S. forces killed the sonofabitch in this raid - and news about it came just hours later. Athar went on to Tweet several more times about the helicopter(s) and the noise, wondering just what was going on...
