RE: ROUND II Community Partnerships – Maine Readiness Campaign
I'm pleased to announce that the Maine Readiness Campaign is seeking more high schools as community partners.
You may remember that the Readiness Campaign is sponsored by the Department of Education and funded through the National Governors Association. The Campaign, which is transitioning into its second year, embraces the goal of creating a shared commitment among school, business, municipal and civic leaders to all Maine students graduating ready for college, career and citizenship. The Campaign has three components:
Last summer, 23 high schools joined the campaign in Round I as community partners. Our goal during the complete term of the campaign is to engage with 50 partners, so we're seeking 27 more high schools to join us. I hope that you'll consider becoming a partner.
The "Kick Start" media campaign that will launch in January will feature a website designed specifically for students in grades 7-9, as well as a media component. The messages of the campaign will support and bring attention to the important work that each community partnership will be undertaking.
Each community partnership will receive $2000. In turn, each partnership must agree to the following:
In addition to the $2000 grant, the partnerships will also receive a profile of their high school's student readiness, a directory of promising practices being used in other high schools, and support though State and regional workshops. The first workshop is scheduled for January 25, 2007 at the Augusta Civic Center where Round II partners will be able to learn the about "actions" being implemented by our Round I partners. An interactive website to support community partnerships was launched in mid-November at http://www.GetMaineReady.com. The website is rich with content materials and will be used to keep partnerships updated about each others' activities.
If you are interested in learning more about the Readiness Campaign, or in an application to become a community partner, email Juanita Deschambault firstname.lastname@example.com by mid-December and she will contact the appropriate campaign staff to get the answers to you or will forward you an application package.

SEC sack Afroil Board -MD to face EFCC
Category: Frauds & Scandals
Read (2217)
Proshare NI
June 26, 2009 22:49 GMT
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has sacked the Board of Afroil Plc and Mr Ishaq Olakunle Sanni, Managing Director (MD) of the company maybe facing the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for further investigation and criminal prosecution.
This was contained in a Statement signed by Lanre Oloyi, Head, Media of SEC and made available to Proshare NI.
The Release affirmed that a five (5) man Interim Management Committee (IMC) has been jointly constituted by the Commission (SEC) and Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) for the management of Afroil following the indictment of Mr. Sanni and other Directors in the sale of the illegally warehoused shares of the company and other violations of the Investments and Securities Act, 2007 and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission.
SEC affirmed that the IMC is to take over the affairs of the company and organise an Extra-Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) within ninety (90) days in the interest of shareholders of the company.
The Administrative Proceedings Committee (APC) has confirmed Mr. Sanni, have fraudulently converted the sum of N185, 224,660.22
(One hundred and eighty-five million, two hundred and twenty- four thousand, six hundred and sixty Naira, twenty-two kobo) belonging to the company.
Following this development, SEC has disqualified him from operating in the Nigerian Capital Market (NCM) and from holding Directorship position in any Public Company in Nigeria for a period of five (5) years.
These were some of the decisions of the APC of SEC that investigated the alleged illegal sale of Afroil shares and other violations of the ISA 2007 and the Rules and Regulations made thereto.
As earlier reported, SEC had on December 2007, announced that it has observed an unprecedented upsurge in the share prices of some quoted companies including that of Afroil and consequently constituted an Investigative Committee to among other things, ascertain the basis of the price movement, establish any possible price manipulation and identify those responsible.
The Committee, after reviewing documents obtained from the Central Securities Clearing Systems Limited (CSCS), and some Brokers/Dealers, found among others that Reward Investment and Services Limited and PSL Securities Limited illegally offered for sale on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) shares of Afroil, which were illegally warehoused in the name of Prudent Bank Plc (now Sky Bank Plc).
Based on the report and findings of the Committee, the Commission on March 17 2008 directed the NSE to suspend trading in the shares of Afroil Plc.
Following this, the parties involved were invited before the APC of the Commission, via letters dispatched to each of them personally and publications in two national daily newspapers, to explain why sanctions should not be imposed on them for violating the provisions of the ISA 2007, the SEC Rules and Regulations 2000 (as amended), as well as the Code of Conduct of Corporate Governance in Nigeria.
At the conclusion of the hearing, the APC reviewed the oral and documentary evidence before it and made the following major decisions:
1. That Afroil Plc, a public quoted company, the securities of which are registered by the Commission, offered 165,000,000 (One hundred and sixty five million) ordinary shares of 20k each at 40k per share at its Initial Public Offering, which was not fully subscribed. Whereof 69,730,000 (Sixty nine million, seven hundred and thirty thousand) units were unsubscribed, not underwritten but illegally warehoused.
2. That out of the illegally warehoused shares of Afroil Plc, 29 million units of the shares were illegally sold and its proceeds misappropriated by Mr. I. O. Sanni, the Managing Director;
3. Mr. I. O. Sanni, who masterminded the illegal sale of the 29 million units of the shares, has been directed to refund the proceeds of the illegal sale and banned from holding directorship position in any public quoted company for five (5) years;
4. Mr. I. O. Sanni, be and has been referred to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for further investigation and prosecution for fraudulent conversion of N185, 224,660.22 (One hundred and eighty-five million, two hundred and twenty-four thousand, six hundred and sixty Naira, twenty-two kobo) only belonging to the company being the amount realized from the sale of Afroil Plc illegally warehoused shares.
5. K.S. Fund Managers Limited (a company wholly owned by Mr. I. O. Sanni) was unable to prove how it acquired 49 million units of shares of Afroil Plc credited to it, which enabled it to have a Board seat in the company. Consequently, the shares credited to it are to be forfeited.
6. The Auditor, Odili Okechukwu & Co who signed the Annual Report and Accounts of Afroil Plc which contained irregularities and financial misstatements has had his application for registration as an Auditor with the Commission deferred for three (3) years and has been referred to the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) for appropriate disciplinary action for professional misconduct.
7. Sundry fines were imposed on the other Respondents found liable.
The detailed decisions have been communicated to all the parties and Regulatory Authorities for implementation.

PORT MORESBY -- Oil Search reported that on 23 July 2014, the Taza 2 well was at a total depth of 4,200 m in a 6-1/8" hole.
During the week, having seen encouraging hydrocarbon shows towards the base of the previously drilled section, a further 102 metres was drilled to the final total depth of 4,200 m. Wireline logs are currently being acquired over the new section of hole and preparations are underway for a comprehensive testing programme, likely to comprise drill stem tests over up to five intervals.
Taza 2 is located 10 kms north-west of Taza 1 and is designed to appraise the hydrocarbon-bearing intervals discovered by Taza 1 (Jeribe/Dhiban and Euphrates/Kirkuk Formations), as well as explore deeper Tertiary and Cretaceous targets including the Shiranish Formation.
The participants in Taza 2 are: Oil Search (Iraq) Limited - 60%, Total E&P Kurdistan Region of Iraq (Taza) BV - 20% and Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) - 20%.
Oil Search's funding interest is 75%, with the KRG's 20% interest carried by Oil Search and Total E&P Kurdistan Region of Iraq (Taza) BV.

Your voice is vital to raising awareness of what is happening in Lesotho. I encourage to apply for the World Pulse VOF Program. It will enhance your skills as an activist but more importantly, will connect you with other women around the world demanding women and girls have the same rights as men. It becomes an amazing support network of sisters, mentors and supporters.
I have seen first-hand how much each person's writing skills develop, their confidence grows, how they garner support for their personal projects, and how many went on to have their articles picked up by international media such as the BBC, CNN, and the New York Times.
I hope you will consider applying. The world needs to hear your voice.
In peace and with best wishes,

Donor is MIA
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 11-29-2009 - 3:44pm
Well I got a call today I was totally not expecting, and I am totally freaking out. The donor was supposed to go in Fri. morning and she didn't come in, and she called and said she was stuck in a snowstorm in PA. So she was supposed to go in Sat instead, and she never showed, and didn't call. They have left her 3 messages over the course of the weekend and haven't heard from her. We are literally days away from ER. At this point we don't know if she's still taking her meds, if she's okay, if she's on board, but it's not looking good. We actually checked and there were no reports of snow in PA this week, so....
The nurse said she would call me tomorrow after the cycling hours and let me know if she shows or if they hear from her. I am just so sad, angry, and shocked- I can't believe this happened again. That's donor number three and three strikes and you're out. So needless to say if this doesn't happen we're done with this clinic, and maybe done with DE for the time being.
We decided that if this doesn't happen we are going to start over at another clinic, and see if they feel like it's worth trying again with my eggs. The money we would have spent on DE is almost 2 IVF cycles, and maybe another clinc/lab will have better luck getting us viable embryos. I'm trying to see this as a blessing in disguise, or at least as a sign that this is not the right direction for us. Anyway, please just send some prayers that this works out one way or another.

Martha Coakley on Tax Reform
"We do need to get out of this recession, also. And that requires, I think, looking at a couple of things. There's no magic bullet to this. We need to get people back to work, we need to get taxes up, and we'll start to chip away at that deficit."
The Boston Globe sided with Coakley on this, saying in a news story that her words were being taken out of context and that she actually "seemed to suggest that the economy needed to improve so that tax collections would rise."
Martha Coakley also said she would consider it, but Rep. Michael Capuano said he would not. "I would vote for a tax for a moral war, if I thought it was right," said Capuano. "I will not vote, not only for taxes, I will not vote for funding for this surge, either, as I have not voted for the funding in Iraq, either."

According to the latest Pew research, only a slim majority of them are aware it even exists.Reuters
Observers of Pakistani politics say Pakistanis universally loathe the American drone strikes against Islamist militants in Pakistan's tribal belt. The view is based on anecdotal accounts of Pakistanis, but not the ones most affected by the strikes who live in the tribal areas where the drones fly. Most of these informants have no personal knowledge of the tribal areas and the political situation that prevails there. Despite these limitations, observers such as Murtaza Haider confidently avow that " if there is a consensus in Pakistan on any one matter, it is the unanimous opposition to the American drone strikes on Pakistan's territory ."
This conventional wisdom is wrong. Yes, drone strikes are not very popular among a large section of Pakistani society. But Pakistanis are not united in opposition to drone strikes. In fact, many Pakistanis support the drone strikes. This suggests that there is room for the United States to engage in a public diplomacy campaign to win over more Pakistanis to the idea that drone strikes are not the bringers of carnage that is so often portrayed in the Urdu-language media in Pakistan if the United States could be persuaded to bring this worst-kept secret out of the closet and into embassy briefings in Islamabad.
Writers critical of the drone program have mobilized various public opinion polls to buttress their claims, notably those conducted by the Pew Research Center as a part of its Global Attitudes Project. Pew asks Pakistanis whether they believe that the drone strikes are conducted with consent of the Pakistani government and whether they believe the strikes kill civilians in large numbers, among other sensitive topics. Drone opponents have used the responses as evidence that the program is being forced on Pakistanis by the United States, which has decided to engage in these extrajudicial killings as the way to best conduct its own war against Islamist militants who are ensconced in Pakistan's tribal areas. Pew's 2010 report on the drone war declared: "There is little support for U.S. drone strikes against extremist leaders -- those who are aware of those attacks generally say they are not necessary, and overwhelmingly they believe that the strikes kill too many civilians." Drone foes have seized upon these and subsequent survey results and marshaled them as iron-class proof that Washington's drone program faces a wall of Pakistani public opposition. Fortifying opinion with data is a welcome thing. Unfortunately, drone critics have been highly selective in their use of the data, with a tendency to rely on survey answers that cast Pakistani opinion as being overwhelmingly hostile to drones. When one examines all of the data gathered by Pew on drones in Pakistan, a very different and much more complex picture emerges about Pakistani attitudes toward various aspects of the American drone program. A more detailed look at the data suggests that that even while some Pakistanis think drones kill too many innocent Pakistanis, they are still necessary.
The Landscape of Pakistani Opinion
To get a more complete understanding of Pakistani public opinion, we studied the full range of answers related to drones from the 2010 Pew Global Attitudes Project survey, looking at the respondent-level data. Public commentary has been based upon selective stories about misleading tabulations. For example, a large majority of Pakistanis indicated that the drone strikes killed too many innocents. Drone opponents use this and other questions to link collateral damage to their claim that drone strikes are unpopular. In fact, most Pakistanis were either unaware of the drone program or declined to answer questions about them in 2010. Only 35 percent of the sample professed knowledge of the drone program -- compared to 43 percent who said they knew nothing. The difference is comprised of persons who chose not to answer the question for whatever reason. Most of the drone-critical commentary based upon these 2010 data does not acknowledge that conclusions are being drawn from a minority of all respondents.
There is not a wall of opposition to drone strikes in Pakistan but a vocal plurality that merely gives that impression.
Data from subsequent Pew surveys show that knowledge of the drone program has grown slightly, as has opposition to it. Spring 2012 data demonstrate that 56 percent of Pakistanis have heard something about the drone program and 21 percent knew nothing about it at all despite the extensive media coverage in Pakistan and beyond. Another 23 percent of respondents declined to say whether they had heard of the drone strikes. Among those who had heard of the program in 2012, 17 percent said that drone strikes are necessary to defend Pakistan from extremist groups (when done in conjunction with the Pakistani government), whereas 44 percent opposed the strikes. While 41 percent who were familiar with the program believe that they are being conducted without their government's approval; 47 percent correctly believe that their government has given its approval for these strikes. Clearly, Pakistani public opinion is not as informed and much less unanimous as commentators often presume. There is not a wall of opposition to drone strikes in Pakistan but a vocal plurality that merely gives that impression. The question arises: who are those Pakistanis that support, or alternatively, oppose America's use of armed drones?
Who Opposes the Drones? Who Supports Them?
To understand why people oppose or support drone strikes in Pakistan, you have to start with their sources of information about drones. Clearly, by the large numbers who are not aware of the drone strikes, many Pakistanis have no information about the program. This is not surprising, given the high illiteracy rate in Pakistan and the lack of access poorer Pakistanis have to television and the Internet. In fact, in a statistical analysis we did on Pakistani attitudes toward the drone strikes, we found that the people who were more likely to know about drone strikes in Pakistan were male, more educated, and had access to the Internet. So that tells us something about who at least is knowledgeable about the drone program. This is a fundamental issue that all public commentary has ignored: it is not random who does or does not know about the program. In short, there are important selection biases in the data. This is in addition to the more general problem with Pew's data on Pakistan that it is overwhelmingly urban.

If you're using goalies you can't really go past 16. If you take out the goalies then you could put it to 20.
Posted 15 September 2013 - 10:12 PM
I wanted to do 20 for my league but settled on 14. We had 10 last year and I know that defenseman (or at least useful ones) are hard to come by.
Posted 17 September 2013 - 10:12 PM
I switched from 12 to 10 this year. Only cause a couple people lost interest and basically had an bye week auto win. Decided to go 10 with a stacked roster.

Since you noticed an increase in local prices, Check out your local refinery. Have they shut it down or otherwise reduced its output to reduce supply?
You are correct about the Washington Free Beacon. The article you cite from Rumor Check was posted earlier by NOTSOGRN. If you would rather get the real Libya jetliner story on the front page, go to "all recent news", scroll down, until you find it, and give it a "pump" to get it enough posts to surpass the trashy article from the Washington Free Beacon.

"Che!" is an intentionally noncommittal version of the Cuban revolution which strains to balance the good with the bad. The film opens with Che Guevara's dead body on display in Bolivia and various people who knew him coming forward to give their varied opinions. In flashback, the film recounts Che's switch from doctor to politico in Castro's campaign to wrest Cuba from the dictatorship of Batista. Later, he becomes disillusioned with Castro's compromises and his willingness to cooperate with the Communists, and leaves to lead a revolt in Bolivia which costs him his life.
Rebel. Hero. Lover. Legend. Che Guevara has inspired generation after generation as the young idealist and revolutionary who fought for the poor and oppressed. Eduardo Noriega (Vantage Point,Open Your Eyes, The Devil's Backbone) electrifies in the title role of this fascinating story about Che's fearless life, helping to lead a bloody socialist revolt that would shock the world.
Benicio Del Toro stars as Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who alongside Fidel Castro, becomes a Cuban Revolutionary hero in this sweeping epic of guerilla warfare.
In this tale of sacrifice and idealism, Che Guevara (Benicio Del Toro), following his successes in Cuba, travels to Bolivia to jumpstart an offshoot of the Revolution.

Best Neighborhood Bar/West Miami 2001 - The Bar
172 Giralda Ave.
Coral Gables, FL 33134
Readers' Choice: Duffy's Tavern at the Crossings
After bartenders in Coral Gables call the last round, many of them make their way to The Bar for nightcaps. There is no better endorsement for a watering hole than one from the mixologist class. But if you need another, check out the beer selection. The Bar boasts 10 brands of brew on tap and 21 in bottles, plus a wide variety of liquor. A serviceable menu of standards features four kinds of hamburgers, a decent chicken sandwich, and mozzarella sticks that don't bathe your fingers in grease. Tunes that range from Sinatra to Kid Rock stack the jukebox. On Saturdays live music rocks the room. Above it all is an air of comfort that makes The Bar's steady clientele treat the joint like a second home.

I've seen some really amazing work done using crusting buttercream and tried a recipe too, but it was super sweet.
Is there a way to make buttercream crust so it is not so sweet? I think the confectioner's sugar is what makes it crust right?
putting a little salt in your icing mix will cut the sweet tast also
okay...I'll try that. Which recipe do you normally use for a crusting buttercream?
I have never used meringue powder since my last cake class 18 yrs. ago. You do not neet it. Of course i am talking about american b/c.

Russian extremists using social media to target, attack LGBT youth
July 26, 2013
Read More: LGBT violence, occupy pedophillia, russia
This image posted to the "Occupy Pedophilia" group on VK.com, depicts group members "Lion Fancy" (left) and Mikhail Krasnov (right) standing over an unidentified victim.
KAMENSK-URAL, Russia — A network of loosely organized groups of Russian ultra-nationalists are targeting LGBT youth for bullying and assault by creating fake social media profiles and gay personals to attract unsuspecting victims.
Members of the groups use the popular European social media site VK.com to lure victims to meeting places, where they are then harassed, brutally beaten, humiliated and forced to perform sexual acts with inanimate objects.
Many of the encounters are recorded on video and digital photos and then uploaded to YouTube and VK.com groups "Occupy Pedophilia" and "Occupy Kamensky."
The most active group, "Occupy Pedophilia," is headed by Maxim Martsinkevich, who is known (in Russian) as "Tesak" — which translates as "The Cleaver."
Martsinkevich's group operates from Kamensk, located in the Ural mountains about 1,900 miles east ofMoscow.
Martsinkevich, the former leader of a Russian neo-fascist organization "Format 18," was released from prison in December 2010, where he was serving a three-year sentence for inciting ethnic hatred. For two years, he has traveled around the Russian federation promoting his group's involvement in the capture of "paedophiles", using the VK adverts as "live bait."
He has also been a strong proponent of recent changes in Russian laws that have criminalized discussion of LGBTQ issues and gatherings such as Pride events.
According to Russian LGBT equality rights activists, there are approximately 500 online groups, which have been created on VK.com in order to organize illegal militant groups in every Russian city.
Many from these groups have taken to following Martsinkevich's lead as they allegedly attempt to "identify pedophiles" and protect children, although one Russian gay activist told LGBTQ Nation that, in reality, means their idea of fighting pedophiles is to target gay male teenagers who respond to same-sex personal ads.
According to the activists and from accounts from the groups themselves, nearly all of the attacks occur in broad daylight and are recorded and are freely distributed on YouTube and VK.com in order to out LGBT teens to their respective schools, parents and friends.Nicolai Alexseev, head of Gay.RU, a Moscow based LGBTQ equality rights group, told LGBTQ Nation Thursday that the reports that many of the victims were driven to suicides, and the rest "being deeply traumatized," are true.
Another activist, Valentin Degterev, said that efforts to squash these militant groups often ends up being useless as the local police more often than not refuse to step in and launch criminal inquiries, despite complaints filed by victims, parents of victims, activists, and evidence that clear violation of Russian criminal statues had taken place.
The founder of VK.com, Pavel Durov, has not responded to repeated requests for comment or action, although Degterev noted that VK.com intermittently shuts down selected groups and profiles only to allow them to be re-open on the next day.
An email request for comment by LGBTQ Nation to YouTube regarding the numerous videos depicting the violence, which is in violation of YouTube's content guidelines, was not responded to by press time.

Despite the overwhelming sensation of postmodern radical chic, there is more than enough substance here to make for a compelling show. Gilad Ophir's stark black-and-white photos from Kiryat Rishon, a development of tract houses in a suburb of Tel Aviv, are outstanding. Ophir photographs these generic homes for the upper middle class in varying states of construction; his bleak, unpopulated landscapes are a sharp contrast to typical images of awesome ancient architecture or lush kibbutzes.
Ariane Littman-Cohen cunningly embraces a cliche -- and transcends it stupendously -- in Holy Land for Sale, a wooden crate filled with small sacks of dirt. Earth from Jerusalem and water from the Dead Sea are commonly sold as tourist souvenirs. But Littman-Cohen has given the concept a wonderfully subversive twist, by convincing Arim, a government-owned company, to participate in her work. Arim, whose logo is embossed on the bags, administers technological development projects throughout Israel, essentially selling off the scared land for capitalist gain.
The Bass's upstairs galleries are devoted to sections titled "Anxiety and Terror" -- which includes Lin's Cold Blood -- and "Local Identity/the 'Arab' and the 'Israeli'." This last subject is subtly evoked in two beautiful abstract paintings by Tsibi Geva, one of the few artists who successfully take banal images and make them their own.
The first painting, a large, lightly textured work that takes up an entire gallery wall, is inspired by the flecked pattern of the typical terrazzo floor tile found in most Israeli apartments.
Geva says he first became interested in the tile as a subject because of its Arab name, balata, by which it is also known in Israel. Balata is also the name of a refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. As Geva studied the surface of this common material he'd never taken particular notice of before, he began to think about its significance in both Arab and Israeli cultures.
"For me the idea is to take an object that is a symbol of the other, to work with it and to learn to talk through it, so it develops new meanings," the artist explains.
His other painting, Kaffiyeh #21, is based on the black-and-white Arab headwear typically identified with Palestinians. Geva has been making paintings inspired by the head covering for some years; in this version the scarf's gridded pattern has evolved to look like a chainlink fence, floating over a row of vertical stripes that recall the design of a Jewish prayer shawl, or tallis. The painting can be interpreted as a symbol of the violent conflict and common bonds of two cultures or appreciated simply as a lyrical abstraction.
"There's a relationship between a romantic and a frightening feeling, which I think is very typical in my country," says Geva, aptly capturing the atmosphere in both his homeland and his work. "That's what you feel when you live there."

Overcoming boundaries
I recently got a rare opportunity to be part of an audience addressed by the Director of the International Media Programs with the National Endowment for Democracy – Margaret Sullivan. She described an era when she was a young journalist in the 70s, when women journalists were generally looked down upon, and had to work four times as hard as their male counterparts in order to get any semblance of recognition. She described being allocated a desk at the back of the newsroom, like it was a deliberate attempt to stifle and obliterate both her face and voice. Men generally considered themselves superior to women journalists and would hoot and whistle each time a woman walked into the newsroom. Ms Sullivan also described a sad tale of how very good women journalists found themselves relegated to fluffy feature stories of nothing consequential, or 'easy beats' like courts and health reporting while their male counterparts got to do politics and other 'hard stuff'.
Being of a completely different, albeit improved era, it was shocking to even imagine that such a time existed. Nevertheless, as much as conditions for women have improved significantly over the years - a lot of prejudices still exist.
Today the Web 2.0provides opportunities for women to redefine their audiences and be heard through alternative media not necessarily considered mainstream. You would think that women in media have a certain advantage in terms of getting their view points across – but the nature of patriarchy which dominates most of our newsrooms has ensured that they either hold themselves back for fear of criticism or are just denied either the opportunity or sufficient recognition to freely express themselves.
Many a journalist has found the value of self-publishing through blogging and harnessing the potential of online publication. By these means, women have started to define themselves outside editorial policy, making people start to question the assumptions they previously held without questioning.
The ability that comes with Web 2.0 to publish in near real time is something that cannot be overlooked. A lot more female journalists are the first to break some really hard hitting stories to reach wider audiences.
Social networking tools like Facebook and Twitter have allowed an unprecedented level of networking across professions, which can be highly enriching for a journalist. I have found that by cultivating the right audiences online, I can discuss or blog about the issues I care about, and there will be an interested group of followers. I also like the fact that much as blogging platforms allow one to self publish; your audiences are both your critic and editor – praising you when you write an excellent piece or break a pertinent issue and fiercely criticising and reproaching you when you get your facts or as much as a spelling wrong.
Most importantly, for the unconventional journalist who still wants to write but no longer operates within the confines of the newsroom – Web 2.0 is a platform to keep both a passion and profession alive
You are right, the newsroom environment is still really testosterone-soaked, and in need of an overhaul. I must admit to being a bit of a coward as it is one of the reasons I opted to pursue my career and speak from a different podium. And for us Zimbabweans Web 2.0 is all the more vital in view of the insurmountable barriers we have to crush - gender discrimination, media repression, the political minefields...the list is endless.
Very familiar
Hi there,
I certainly recognise those pressures from working in a newsroom and it wasn't so long ago!
I enjoyed your piece and hearing your thoughts on how social media can be used as an alternative platform.
new thoughts
Hi Stash,
Not being a journalist, I learned several things from your essay, which was also quite clear and interesting.
Keep up the good work!
"Super Stash"
Dear Stash,
Thank you for sharing your insights and your journey across eras. What a valuable exchange for us all to experience.
May the remainder of this journey give your voice wings!
All the best,
Kaleidoscope Girl.

Pablo Zabaleta has urged Manchester City to shrug off their fatigue as they attempt to overhaul their rivals at the top of the Premier League.
A tense title race is entering the closing stages and third-placed City kept the pressure on Chelsea and Liverpool with an impressive 4-1 win over Southampton on Saturday.
Manuel Pellegrini's men have been forced to cope with a hectic fixture schedule, leading them to Capital One Cup success, together with progress to the latter stages of the Champions League and FA Cup.
Yaya Toure, Edin Dzeko, Samir Nasri and Stevan Jovetic all scored as City overcame a spirited Saints side and Zabaleta admits his team cannot afford any leg weary displays in the closing games.
"The most important thing was to win - we must keep winning all games. It is going to be very tough until the end of the season," said the defender.
"At the end of the season, sometimes, teams can look a little tired but I think we must keep winning games.
"Every single game now is going to be like a final, (but) we have belief.
"I think we have a great team to make success this season but it is not going to be very easy.
"We need to keep working hard and keep playing like (we did) in the second half. I think playing in that way we will have more chances."
Rickie Lambert equalised from the penalty spot for Southampton, who caused City plenty of problems in the first-half at the Etihad.
Zabaleta was impressed with Mauricio Pochettino's men, suggesting that Saints can threaten the top teams next season.
Zabaleta said: "I think they are probably one of the best teams in the league, for sure.
"I think we must give them a lot of credit because they are having a great season, they played really well.
"We didn't play our best in the first half but then we came back stronger.
"We had the control of the ball in the second half. We scored four goals and that is great for us."

From delicious Lumley's Bakery muffins & pastries served with aromatic coffee from Coffee Perfection, to the 100% Irish meat from O Mahony Meats complimented by the fruit and veg from our green grocer Martin Fox. Everything has a story behind it, a story you will only hear at Kittyhawks Bistro.
At lunch we offer a great range of dishes from our carvery with its new salad and sandwich bar as well as the traditional carvery lunch on offer. A full bistro menu featuring wholesome food is available until 10pm. Chef Specials and Dish of the day also available. Our table d'hote menu is priced at €35 per person but we also offer an Early Bird Special at €59 for a three course meal for two people plus a bottle of house wine.
Buffet Breakfast is served each morning from 6.30am until 10.30am with prices starting at €10.50 for a continental breakfast and €13.50 for a full Irish breakfast. Click on the link below to see a sample of Kittyhawk's mouth-watering menus:
The bar is also a popular meeting place for people who come to unwind after a hard day's work.

"I got this recipe from a grandmother in Phnom Penh. It's normally eaten for breakfast in Cambodia, but westerners would probably consider it lunch or dinner food. If you can't find the powdered rice root, don't worry, it's not that importaint. For the toasted rice powder, toast the rice in a dry pan until brown and grind to a powder."
Serving Size: 1 (506 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 5
"I am Cambodian from Phnom Penn and from the ingredients described in this recipe, you have mixed up two different soup recipes. This is not how you make this soup. What it sounds like is that you have a nom pachok recipe with a slau gri recipe."
