Ready, Set, Converge on a Definition
By Thaddeus B. Kubis
| Posted on April 26, 2011

Text Size
A few blogs ago,
I wrote about customer centric communications (CCC) and customer centric marketing (CCM). At that time, I was attempting in my mind to link CCC/CCM to the power of print and the advantage this type of marketing offers the printer.
When you link either CCC or CCM with media convergence the possibilities become, as they say, endless. A number of successful print providers have told me that I was right on target and, if anything, they advised me keep a low profile as it relates to this concept. A common comment was let the others guys figure this out for themselves.
Understood, but since I don't expect some thugs to break my knees, I wanted to continue the discussion and link the concept of CCC/CCM with media convergence. If you have been a follower of this blog, you know I am strong proponent of this discipline.
But before I move forward with making the link, I wanted to explain and define what I see as media convergence. Don Carli of
The Institute of Sustainable Communications
drove me to complete this definition sooner than planned, but in the end I agreed with Don that the definition is needed to provide the proper link, garner the needed support and lead the way. So here we go.
If you look to a number of "definitions," nearly all define media convergence as the integration of computing power (primarily the Internet), communications and content. They are known as the three "Cs," but there is a fourth "C"—the consumer.
Here is how I see it, and I hope you agree. Actually, I hope you don't agree and ask questions, challenge the concept, for it is said there are no authorities in science, only experts. I too wish to be an expert in this field, and experts are made by the challenges they field and successfully counter.
What is Media Convergence? It is:
• Computer Power
The advent of the Internet and the digital highway has provided any marketer (print provider) with a fast-lane, a sort of digital easy pass to touch, survey, measure and track any level of communication that the consumer accepts, or even rejects. The question on the table is, How do we—the communicator—use this highway? Where are the on and off ramps, speed limit, signs, rest areas and on-the-road support? There may be many on ramps, but, until now, few exits. Is there a map?
• Communications
The above stated digital highway is a nearly perfect conduit for communication. The advanced marketer can allow the consumer to define the method of being "touched," the frequency of that contact and even specificity of the message. The content end of the media convergence highway is, to m,e the key to success, for it is the heart and blood of the new future. If you have no interest in pig eye soup, would you read about it? I don't think so. Read on, as they say.
• Content
What did you say; you don't care about ski caps since you live in Miami? Good call, bad message. Branded content is today—not yesterday, not tomorrow—and media convergence will help guide the correct message to the right person at the right time via the correct media. Interested in bluebird houses? How about bluebird houses and the potential of a bird establishing a nest based on your GPS location. Yep, media convergence will allow that to happen.
• Consumer
To me, this is the single most important topic, since without the consumer or customer, the above three "innovations" would have little to stand upon and the profitability of media convergence would be in question. The consumer will make the final choice—how many screens, where and when they wish to be touched—about what they wish to hear and see, even smell. Yes, smell!
The Definition:
A measured and researched combination of the four "Cs" of media convergence defined by the targeted audience, the level of budgetary commitment and desired effect. The type of media and the levels of media to be used also define media convergence.
For example, a print-based direct mail effort linked to the Internet that is supported by an e-mail program, integrated with a mobile GPS (geo-tracking) program and that drives the recipient to a form capture page that takes you—the consumer—to a branded content site. This personalized micro site can reverse the process and ask questions, send consumers automated and customized direct mail and e-mails, and contact them via their mobile phone with SMS and augmented reality, all set up to help you shop, buy and track your positive or negative efforts.
That is media convergence, by my definition. And the way I see it, if you hold the words media convergence up to a mirror, what you get is not a mirrored image of the words, but the words, as if by magic (smoke and mirrors), are changed to read Customer Centric Communications.
More to follow next week, including the road map.
Does this define media convergence for you? Let me know, as the current "Chief Evangelist for Media Convergence," I wish to get it right by you and, of course, by me.

No cake decorator wants to walk in and see cake crumbs making a trail to their kitchen, which is what I walked upstairs to. First off, my grandmother had passed away the morning of the wedding, I was already upset from that, but I had to do the cake now. I mean it was the day of the wedding. All I had to do was finish icing the cakes, and add the ribbon at the reception site. I went into my basement to get the box for transporting and came back upstairs and saw that my dog had decided to eat half of the bottom layer ( of course the largest). I was due at the reception site in 30 minutes. So with a quick call to the bride, I told her I would be there at 5, one hour before the reception, to set up. I baked my butt off and my mom helped me finish up. I finished working right up until the wedding party arrived. It was slightly embarrassing having all the guest watch me, but I made it through and the cake turned out pretty good (see Ribbon Parade in my photo album). Needless to say my cakes will not be temporarily left on the dining table anymore.

Bible in Basic English (BBE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Let my cause come to your ears, O Lord, give attention to my cry; give ear to my prayer which goes not out from false lips. | 1 Hear, O LORD, my righteous plea; listen to my cry. Give ear to my prayer-- it does not rise from deceitful lips. |
2 Be my judge; for your eyes see what is right. | 2 May my vindication come from you; may your eyes see what is right. |
3 You have put my heart to the test, searching me in the night; you have put me to the test and seen no evil purpose in me; I will keep my mouth from sin. | 3 Though you probe my heart and examine me at night, though you test me, you will find nothing; I have resolved that my mouth will not sin. |
4 As for the works of men, by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the ways of the violent. | 4 As for the deeds of men-- by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the ways of the violent. |
5 I have kept my feet in your ways, my steps have not been turned away. | 5 My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped. |
6 My cry has gone up to you, for you will give me an answer, O God: let your ear be turned to me, and give attention to my words. | 6 I call on you, O God, for you will answer me; give ear to me and hear my prayer. |
7 Make clear the wonder of your mercy, O saviour of those who put their faith in your right hand, from those who come out against them. | 7 Show the wonder of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes. |
8 Keep me as the light of your eyes, covering me with the shade of your wings, | 8 Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings |
9 From the evil-doers who are violent to me, and from those who are round me, desiring my death. | 9 from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies who surround me. |
10 They are shut up in their fat: with their mouths they say words of pride. | 10 They close up their callous hearts, and their mouths speak with arrogance. |
11 They have made a circle round our steps: their eyes are fixed on us, forcing us down to the earth; | 11 They have tracked me down, they now surround me, with eyes alert, to throw me to the ground. |
12 Like a lion desiring its food, and like a young lion waiting in secret places. | 12 They are like a lion hungry for prey, like a great lion crouching in cover. |
13 Up! Lord, come out against him, make him low, with your sword be my saviour from the evil-doer. | 13 Rise up, O LORD, confront them, bring them down; rescue me from the wicked by your sword. |
14 With your hand, O Lord, from men, even men of the world, whose heritage is in this life, and whom you make full with your secret wealth: they are full of children; after their death their offspring take the rest of their goods. | 14 O LORD, by your hand save me from such men, from men of this world whose reward is in this life. You still the hunger of those you cherish; their sons have plenty, and they store up wealth for their children. |
15 As for me, I will see your face in righteousness: when I am awake it will be joy enough for me to see your form. | 15 And I--in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness. |

Since the lockout, every Stanley Cup Final has opened with one side taking a 2-0 series lead. Only one team – the 2009 Pittsburgh Penguins – came back to win the Cup. Those odds don't look very good for the Boston Bruins. However, it's somewhat more optimistic when you remember that the Boston Bruins have already come back from a 0-2 hole in these playoffs. In the first round against Montreal, the Canadiens took a quick 2-0 lead in the series by winning twice in Boston. The Bruins evened things up with a pair of wins in Montreal. They eventually took the series in seven games.
But can the Bruins do the same thing against the Canucks?
Vancouver has blown a series lead once in these playoffs already, as they watched the Chicago Blackhawks storm back from a 0-3 deficit to force a seventh game. However, since that series ended the Canucks have developed the "killer instinct" that they once lacked.
In round two they had a chance to finish off the Predators in five games after they'd built up a 3-1 series win. They weren't able to do in five, but they ended the series in six. They didn't give Nashville the opportunity to get back into the series by taking it to seven.
In the Western Conference Final they honed their finishing skills and they eliminated the San Jose Sharks in five games.
In this series against the Bruins, they've showed the ability to turn it on and go for the jugular when they need to.
In game one, it was a huge goal in the dying seconds of the third that brought the Canucks victory. In game two, they scored only 11 seconds into overtime to win the game. The Vancouver Canucks are no longer letting teams hang around. They've not giving their opponents the luxury of time. These are not the same Canucks that watched as the Chicago Blackhawks almost pulled off a huge upset. They've become more confident. They've become more deadly.
The Vancouver Canucks are not going to let this series slip away from them. Yes, a 2-0 series lead is not insurmountable. It's certainly not a sure thing. Teams come back from 2-0 deficits somewhat regularly. But it doesn't seem like it will happen this time. These are not your grandfather's Canucks… or even your father's Canucks. These aren't even the Canucks of a few months ago.
Beating the Chicago Blackhawks has given this team swagger. They carried that "choker" label for a long time, but they've finally brushed it off in a big way. They no longer "think" they can win, they KNOW they can win. There isn't a doubt left in that locker room.
When it comes down to it, the Vancouver Canucks have been able to deliver.
These games have been close. They've both been decided by one goal. Game one was won in the final seconds of the third and game two needed overtime. Either of those games could have feasibly gone the other way. But realistically, the Canucks have been the better team.
The Bruins will likely pull off at least one win in this series. But, from where we stand right now, it doesn't look like Boston will be storming back and taking the Cup. The Canucks won't let them.
There has always been a cautious sense of trepidation in Vancouver. No one ever really wanted to come out and proclaim that the Canucks were the best in the league, even after they won the Presidents' Trophy. While fans of many other teams would have been planning the parade long ago, Canucks fans have always been more guarded.
But they no longer have to live with that fear. The choke job won't happen this season. This is a different team.

There are 'Strange Signs the Economy is Improving.' According to this infographic, we may finally be getting over the recession hump and moving on to a more prosperous period.
One good sign is that men are buying underwear again. In economic downtimes, men generally avoid buying underwear. Underwear sales are on the rise, which can only mean that men aren't being as stingy.
Another important thing to note is that more couples are breaking up. Divorce is expensive so during bad economic times, couples who don't even like each other are more likely to stay together just to avoid financially instability. Even facelift procedures, which are considered a luxury expense, plummeted during the recession, but are now rising quickly.

WoW | 23 Comments |
Recent Comments:
Breakfast Topic: Rogue Day! {WoW}
Jun 28th 2007 8:39AM As a priest I must admit I don't see anything "special" about rogues. I much prefer to party with classes that can add something to the overall(buffs, supplies, whatever). Sure they can DPS like anything but that's about it.
A look back at the sale of Wowhead.com {WoW}
Jun 25th 2007 10:53AM I'm mystified at all the coverage this sale is getting around the WOW universe. Company gets founded, grows, is popular, gets bought.
It's no-ones business, except the company and the buyer.
Spiritual Guidance: Grouping with Priests {WoW}
Jun 24th 2007 7:46AM Tip to all: dump the "heal me!" macro, it's goddamn insult, you never see "DPS NOW!" or "FIREBALL!" or "TANK IT!" macros, do you? No. So you don't need a "heal me" either.
I don't understand what they think we priests are doing in groups, that we need "reminding" to heal.
Ask WoW Insider: Best healing class? {WoW}
Jun 22nd 2007 5:39PM I think something important to remember about this is the player makes the class good. It's not just about stats. And here's a simple fact - you find far fewer "crap" holy priests at 70 than you do druids and pallys.
It's far easier to get them to 70 than it is a priest. People who take a priest all the way do so because they love the class and I think this is reflected generally in WoW - if you ask a group to choose between a holy priest, holy pally and a resto druid, I would guess the majority will go for the priest every time, regardless of who's been nerfed, who's been buffed and who what where and why.
You have to remember that 90% of players don't read the forums, don't read the notes, don't read the wikis and just play the game. And, in WoW, priest = best healer.
Breakfast Topic: Mages, we love you! {WoW}
Jun 22nd 2007 8:53AM Teleport and sheep. I mean, seriously, what else do you want from life? You can teleport around while everyone else spend 15 mins flying and you can turn people in small mammals. If that's not cool, nothing is.
Breakfast Topic: How did you pick your class? {WoW}
Jun 21st 2007 8:25AM Whenever I start a new class-based game of any type, I have a habit of going for the warrior type, which I did with WoW. For some reason, I find warriors a good way to learn a game.
I don't always last long, my warrior got to 43 and that was it - I went priest and never looked back.
Is this guide the answer to the leveling problem? {WoW}
Jun 15th 2007 5:34PM I think the people who truly enjoy WOW for years (like myself) understand it's as much a journey as a destination.
I read the levelling guides myself, but they don't take into account things like "how I feel today" or "I don't want to spend time in this scenery today" and so on. They may work, but they've got no soul.
Insider Trader: Yeah, nice effect -- but does it glow? {WoW}
Jun 15th 2007 11:52AM As a long term enchanter, I can't stand the idiots who "want glowz". Just today I inspected a *very* impressively epic'd out tank, to find he had a damn Demonslaying! WTF?!?!
Anyway, the best (kinda) enchant I ever did was Crusader on mining pick (to complement your mining bit). Guy had too much cash I guess.
BTW, Glowchart *was* great. Though I believe he's promising to update it.
Are Europeans better at gaming? {WoW}
Jun 9th 2007 5:57PM You know, giving it some thought, I barely even think of WOW as a "game" - compared to other games - lets say C&C or Crackdown or Doom - it's incredibly easy. There really isn't that much challenge, and there's no real penalty for "failure". The only bit of WOW that is "gaming" in the traditional sense is Arenas.
Are Europeans better at gaming? {WoW}
Jun 9th 2007 5:43PM BTW, @2 - having less holidays in the USA doesn't mean you work harder, it just means you work more, there is a *very* big difference...

The defense is ahead of the offense. That's how training camp always starts, and that still where the Cardinals sit nearing their first preseason game.
Even without linebacker Karlos Dansby, the defense seemed to win most battles during team work Wednesday. Experienced defensive linemen — like Chike Okeafor — had their way a couple of times with inexperienced offensive linemen — like Fred Wakefield. The Cards' offense does have many weapons at its disposal. But that's on paper. The Cards still have to prove it on the field.
No rest for Warner:
Some veteran quarterbacks around the league take a training camp practice or two off to save their strength. But Kurt Warner isn't one of them.
"I don't like to take practice off. It's boring," Warner said. "The challenge is we have such a big playbook, and with coach (Dennis) Green's schedule, we aren't overworked anyway. If I could, I'd take every snap."
After signing a new three-year contract, he'd prefer to stave off young quarterbacks like Matt Leinart — who remains unsigned — as long as he can, one reason he wants all the work. He also knows the coaches will work with him if a reason to sit does crop up.
"If my arm was tired, if my elbow was bothering me, there would be no issue with (sitting out)," Warner said.
Shipp sailing?:
Multiple New York-area outlets reported Wednesday that the Jets may be interested in trading for running back Marcel Shipp.
"Wow," said Shipp, who hadn't heard the rumor. "It doesn't surprise me. There have been trade rumors since we signed Edgerrin (James). I am happy here, I want to play here, I want to make the best of my situation. If a trade does happen, those are the cards I am dealt."
Still no Matt:
The whole bunch of nothing that has become the Leinart contract watch continued Wednesday. Leinart agent Tom Condon did not return a phone message, while the Cardinals' top two contract negotiators, Rod Graves and John Idzik, attended practice Wednesday afternoon. Graves declined to speak with the media.
Extra points:
Receiver Anquan Boldin returned to practice after missing some time with a sore hamstring, and dismissed the idea it was ever a big deal. "It never was serious," Boldin said. ... NAU president John Haeger said the school is committed to replacing the old astroturf in the Walkup Skydome, but the only time frame he'd put on it was "the next several years."
The Cardinals will hold practices at 9:30 a.m. and a walk-through at 4 p.m.
Lance Mitchell: LB came out with a sore knee;
Still out: FB James Hodgins (PUP-knee), DE Anton Palepoi (PUP-shoulder), LB Karlos Dansby (thumb), RB Roger Robinson (toe), T Oliver Ross (knee surgery), DL Kenny King (hand surgery), DT Tim Bulman (back), G Rolando Cantu (knee), DT Kendrick Clancy (groin).
John Bronson
Ht.: 6-3; Wt.: 275; Pos.: FB

Role: Attempting to become the main blocking back
How he got here: Signed as an undrafted free agent in 2005 as a tight end

The house I want to build has a two car side entry garage. I would like to add a third garage facing the street, so the front of the garage would be at the back end of the driveway. Can someone give me an idea how much space I need to allow between the garages? How much behind the side entry garages and how much in front of the third garage? It would be kind of like the garages in this plan, though the house would be different.
Thanks |

You don't need much space in between. Our garage setup is almost identical to yours. We did 3 single garage doors, 9' wide, 8' tall. Each has 1' of brick in between, on the corner, 1' each side. We even have a wing wall on the front of the house shielding the 3rd garage from the street, and we can get in and out fairly well. We have a 20' square pad in front of the garages, extending past the third, and then down 10' past the front of the 3rd toward the backyard. Allowing a 4th car, or a turnaround. One thing I'll mention is that you need 2' of clearance on each side of the car. So on that 3rd garage, you want 12-13' between the foundation walls. We have about 10', and it's not enough to get in and out on both sides. We oversized our garages big time, but have a couple of quirks with not enough space to open doors. |

What kinds of sedums, daylilies and tulips do you have? You would probably get responses to your post if you were to list your plants on your member page. Depending on what you have, I may be interested in trading with you as I have many irises. Susan |
Hi ilovemyiris, Yes, you would likely get more offers to trade if you would list a bit more specifically what you have available for trading. You also need to get your member page email link enabled so that you can be reached. Many members won't respond to a trade post, if the member has not gotten set up properly for trading. hth. Sue |

Trinidad and Tobago's natural gas shortage is expected to ease with BP Trinidad & Tobago's (BPTT) announcement that its Trinidad and Tobago operations had completed its heightened maintenance program.
The Caribbean twin-island nation suffered major gas curtailment after BPTT embarked on a significant maintenance program to sure up its asset integrity in the wake of the Macondo well blowout and oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
In a recent press release, BPTT said it had "safely completed the planned maintenance works (turnaround) on the Amherstia platform." The Amherstia turnaround began on Nov. 6 and was originally planned to last 15 days; the turnaround was completed 5 days ahead of schedule, BPTT said.
It added that the Amherstia turnaround effectively brings to a close the heightened maintenance program announced by BPTT in 2011 that included turnarounds on the Immortelle, Kapok, Cassia B hub, and Amherstia facilities. In 2014, BPTT will return to more normal levels of maintenance activity, BP said.
BPTT operations produces half of Trinidad and Tobago's 4.5 bcfd and is responsible for 18% of BP PLC's total production.
The gas curtailment led to a reduction in Trinidad and Tobago's LNG exports with Atlantic not delivering some of its cargoes and its production falling below its 15 million tonnes/year capacity. It also led to a fall in other commodities from the Caribbean including methanol, urea, and ammonia.


text: Ashes57 and the TEKLIFE crew have been working together for years; everything from creating ill visuals for their tracks (remember the "I Don't Give A Fuck" clip?) to designing and selling the ill TEKLIFE shirts that have come about, Ashes57 and TEKLIFE have an ill thing going on. Tonight in Manchester, Ashes57 is turning his show at Twenty Two Two into a special DJ Rashad tribute show. While Taso is back in America, he will be replaced by Addison Groove, and DJs like Paleman and Mushy will also be playing the event. Now we know, this is in the UK, but here's the thing: the event is technically free, but they are accepting to help Rashad's family (especially his son). You can donate via Skiddle, even if you're not going to the show in Manchester. Ashes also said that profits from the latest TEKLIFE shirt will be going to Rashad's family… so if you're trying to help, there are no excuses.

Seattle Indian Services board members suing to stop takeover by the city
Board members of the financially troubled Seattle Indian Services Commission have filed a lawsuit to stop a takeover by the city of Seattle.
The takeover was prompted by string of bad reports from the Washington State Auditor, including a 2011 audit that revealed $70,000 in unaccounted expenditures.
The audit also noted that the Seattle Indian Center, which is operating in one of the commission's two buildings, is behind on its rent.
The city council authorized Mayor Mike McGinn to intervene, and McGinn removed the board members from the Health Board and Indian Center to eliminate a conflict of interest. The board members McGinn removed would have set the rent and represented organizations paying the rent.
McGinn also placed his own director of Finance and Administrative Services, Fred Podesta, as the board's chair.
But three members of the board — including one still on the mayor's reconfigured board — have hired a lawyer and are suing, saying McGinn does not have the legal right to make those changes.
The lawsuit states that the mayor and city council do not have the legal authority to remove or place people on the board. It also contends that the city intends to transfer ownership of the buildings to the Indian Health Board.
The city, however, established the commission and is also the guarantor on its bonds. If the commission defaults, the city pays.
The lawsuit has stalled the city's efforts to address the commission's financial trouble. The commission owes $6.7 million in bonds on the two properties it owns, the Leschi Building at 611 12th Ave. S., and the Pearl Warren Building at 606 12th Ave. S.
The commission was supposed to meet Oct. 16 for the first time in its new configuration, but Podesta cancelled the meeting because of the lawsuit.
Two of the ousted board members, James Louie and Jim Price, met with board member Andrina Abada and answered questions from the public, but did not make any formal decisions. Abada held the meeting claiming that she is still the commission's chair.
All three have signed on to the lawsuit.
Podesta said he will schedule another meeting soon, but Abada said it will not be an official meeting of the commission.
"I'm not going to [Podesta's] meeting because I don't recognize his authority," she said.

Here at the E-Cigs Academy, you'll find straightforward, honest answers to all your questions about the electronic cigarette. We'll tell you how it works, what the electronic cigarette can do for you and what it can't - despite what other suppliers may lead you to believe!
Our online store has now relaunched under the name of "Liberro". Same great products and customer service - just with a new name and a fresh new brand. Free Yourself from tobacco smoke today - visit our new-look online store for electronic cigarettes, e-liquids and accessories!
The majority of e cigarette users are, or were, tobacco smokers. Because the e cigarette delivers nicotine to the body and produces vapour which can be inhaled, it provides similar tactile and physical sensations to those commonly associated with smoking a tobacco cigarette.
And it's for this reason, along with being more socially acceptable in restricted environments, that the electronic cigarette (or Personal Vaporiser as it's also known), is increasingly being used as an alternative to smoking by those wishing to continue to enjoy nicotine.
You'll notice we have an on-line store. In fact we're proud to say we're the UK and EU's premier supplier of electronic cigarettes and accessories....
...But! We hope you'll also notice that whilst we obviously passionately believe that the e-cigarette has a vital role to play as an alternative or accompaniment to tobacco smoking, the information provided on the E-Cigs Academy is completely impartial and not intended in any way as a 'sales pitch' for our own products. If anything you read here suggests otherwise, please let us know and we'll alter it!
Please Note: If you believe you suffer from Nicotine Dependence Syndrome, please contact NHS Smokefree or your GP for help and advice.
Along with a comprehensive list of Electronic Cigarette FAQ, the E-Cigs Academy includes plenty of money-saving tips, time-saving tricks and e-cigarette user suggestions. Our pages will be updated regularly to ensure you always receive the latest, up-to-the-minute information.
Check out our page on the 3 basic models, learn about e liquid and find out why refilling cartridges is more cost effective than purchasing pre-filled e cigarette cartridges.
And when you've had a look through all the other informative pages on the E-Cigs Academy, you should have all the facts you'll need to make a considered choice about whether the e cigarette is right for you, a friend or a member of your family. If you still have unanswered questions, just drop us a line and we'll do our very best to help.
Feel free to take a 'wander' around the liberro.co.uk store if you'd like to see our own range of electronic cigarettes, e cigarette cartridges or e liquid for refilling cartridges.

Can Surgery Cure Type 2? Interesting Newsweek Article Examines Raging Pros and Cons
In March, Diabetes Health reported on Dr. Francesco Rubino, a surgeon who claims that the origin of diabetes is in the digestive system, not the gut, and that gastric bypass surgery cures type 2 diabetes.
Now Newsweek magazine has weighed in with an article on Dr. Rubino, explaining how he reached his conclusions and contrasting them with critical comments by diabetes experts who question his methods.
Rubino hopes to start two small trials in the U.S. in the future. He wants to test his theory on patients who are only moderately obese or just a little overweight, to find out what is causing type 2 in the 20% of people with diabetes who don't have 20 pounds (or more) to lose.

Pope Francis will be walking a "narrow and tenuous tight-rope" during his visit to the Holy Land this weekend. This is the view of the grand master of Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem, Cardinal Edwin Frederick O'Brien, who has shared with ZENIT his hopes and expectations of the May 24-26 visit….

Hikers! Climbers! Outdoor affecionadios of all descriptions, please read below. You know you have old raincoats, hiking boots,fleece tops wool/fleece hats, etc, that you are not using and are just taking up space.
When I climbed Kilimanjaro, it was apparent that the porters were shockingly poorly equiped to climb a mountain one mile higher than Mt. Rainier. Typically, only the head guides have proper footwear and clothing. I saw men carrying 50lb loads wearing street shoes and old suit jackets. The porters ususally eat only one meal a day, and sleep on the ground in the mess tent, wrapped in a blanket. The Kilimanjaro Porters Aid organization was formed to help these people, and Rainier Mountaineering is collecting clothing. Usually, people who climb Kili try to leave as much of their equipment behind as they can for the porters . Even if the porters could afford to buy proper gear (which they can't) it is hard to come by.
Rainier Mountaineering Inc. (RMI) has teamed up with KPAP to collect 10,000 pieces of mountain gear and will be shipping a 40 foot container to Tanzania in October 2010. Clothing donations that are well suited for the outdoor environment, such as wind and rain shell pants and jackets, rain ponchos, fleece pants and jackets, synthetic base layers or long underwear, gloves, warm hats (no baseball caps please), wool socks and hiking boots are being gathered by RMI Expeditions on behalf of KPAP.
RMI will be hosting all clothing donations at their base camp below Mt. Rainier in Ashford, WA until October 1 2010. At this time the cargo container will be shipped to Tanzania, Africa and received by KPAP. All donations are tax deductible in accordance with IMEC's 501c3 status.
Donations can either be dropped off at RMI's basecamp or shipped to:
10,000 for 2010

The issues in Aarakshan play out through two sets of triangular relationships. The first comprises Prabhakar Anand (Amitabh Bachchan), the principal of S.T.M., a highly regarded college; his protégé Deepak Kumar (Saif Ali Khan), a fledgling teacher; and politically connected professor Mithilesh Singh (Manoj Bajpayee). Though S.T.M. is exempt from the new, stricter reservation laws by virtue of being a private institution, Anand has always reached out to promising disadvantaged students…students like Kumar, who would never have gotten into S.T.M. on his grades alone, and whom Anand not only admitted but coached until he was up to speed. Singh opposes reservations on the grounds that they drag down the overall level of instruction by forcing professors to teach to the least accomplished students in their classes, but his convictions are also tinged with opportunism. His appointment to S.T.M.'s board was engineered by the Minister of Education, whose own expensively educated nephew was denied admission.
The second trio is composed of Anand's daughter, Poorbi (Deepika Padukone), who attends S.T.M., and her two suitors, Deepak and Shushant Seth (Prateik Babbar), a handsome, good-looking classmate from a wealthy family who's devastated to learn that between reservations and his average grades, he can't get into the graduate program he wanted to attend.
Anand is an idealist, but Singh knows how to play politics, and as quotas become a hot-button issue that taps into deep-rooted prejudices, Anand is at a disadvantage. The knowledge that he's in the right is cold comfort when even his own wife and daughter think he's in the wrong.
Director/co-writer Prakash Jha is one of a handful of mainstream Indian filmmakers who regularly focus on political and social issues, and has made movies about bonded labor (which turns lower-caste workers into virtual slaves), the oppression of women, caste-based discrimination, political corruption, and police officers whose loyalties lie with crime lords rather than the people they're supposed to be protecting. But rather than alienating ordinary moviegoers, he sticks just close enough to Bollywood conventions that his films aren't relegated to inconsequential art-house status. Here, he cast big stars like Bachchan and Khan, and cut down the number of musical numbers while still hiring the powerhouse composers Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa to supply the tunes. And while most of the songs accompany montages (like the melancholy "Kaun Si Dor," which is accompanied by shots of the protagonists as they grapple with the way reservations have wrought havoc with their expectations, friendships and family relationships), the rousing "Mauka" (which means "chance," as in "opportunity"), which establishes the movie's underlying theme and is reprised at the end, gets a full-blown production number. It's a brief respite from the knotty drama, which resists easy resolution.

I give potted herbs as hostess gifts along with some great recipes for their use, and a history of the herb it's medicinal uses as well as it's savory uses. I also have been known to give out my recipe for my awesome vinagrette along with a basket that includes all the ingredients to whip it up and a lovely cruet bottle. I even give my specially jarred roasted garlic. I make it in large batches so we always have roasted garlic on hand. If you gve a hostess gift make it something memorable. Don't give something unhealthy or a bouquet of flowers that wither and die.

Last Christmas, I invited some friends for a holiday get-together and I was so happy to receive plants as gifts. A year after, I have these plants and just by passing the plant I remember my friends, which is great. These kinds of gifts last for many years and some for a lifetime like the books, or coasters, of wine racks...etc.

I love to give books as hostess gifts, of course tailored to the interests of the recipient! For instance, I got invited to a holiday party by my neighbor. He's a major history buff, and has recently gotten interested in Israel in particular. I bought him a copy of "Rebirth" by David Longueay (http://rebirthofisrael.com). I'm planning on giving him that and a bottle of wine.

BUGARACH, FRANCE - DECEMBER 20: A sign, reading 'The end of the world, is here', advertises a restaurant in Bugarath, the small village in the foothills of the Pyrenees on December 20, 2012 in Bugarach, France. Miviludes, the French Government's dedicated sect watchdog, are investigating the likelihood of apocalyptic sect activity or ritualised suicides due to the prophecy of an ancient Mayan calendar which also claims that Burgarach is the only place on Earth which will be saved from the apocalypse on the evening of December 21, 2012.

"I cannot believe I have not reviewed this recipe. It has become a family favorite and I have made it more times than I can count.

I just used a quart I found that is at least 3 yrs old. Rinse it well before cooking and I usually fry mine up with diced bacon and onions sauted in a fry pan. We love it!!"
"This is the only relish my family will eat...and they eat it on everything!! It is especially good on farmer's sausage. I have used cucmbers to add to the zucchini to make up 10 cups and have used green pepper instead of red. Also made a batch with a few hot peppers thrown in. I have given out this recipe more times than I can remember. It is..."
"I made this with 3 small very over ripe mangos which I pureed with my hand blender. I did not have any sour cream so I used some buttermilk instead.

Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa commended Congress for voting to ban unsafe Mexican trucks as part of the omnibus fiscal year 2009 appropriations bill that passed the Senate today. The House passed the bill last week.
"There is no doubt that Congress has once and for all killed the Bush administration's expensive and illegal pilot project to open the border to Mexican trucks," Hoffa said.
The project allowed certain Mexican trucks to travel beyond the 25-mile border zone starting just after Labor Day 2007. Though Congress shut down the project in the 2008 appropriations bill, the Bush administration ignored the ban, which expired at the end of the fiscal year.
"The driving public is put at risk when trucks from Mexico that don't meet U.S. standards are allowed to roam our highways," Hoffa said. "The Mexican government has not held up their end of the bargain to meet U.S. standards. Mexican trucks are unsafe and Mexican drivers are not required to meet the same criteria that American drivers must meet to earn a commercial drivers license. It's long past time to close the border to these unguided missiles."
The program cost U.S. taxpayers $500 million, according to the Washington Post. The Transportation Department's inspector general reported on Feb. 6 that Mexican trucks made only 1,443 trips beyond the border zone, or about three per day. The cost of the program would therefore be more than $300,000 per trip.
The Feb. 6 report gave even more reason to oppose the project. Despite repeated assurances that the federal inspectors would "check every truck, every time" it crossed the border, the report said the Transportation Department couldn't tell if every truck and driver were checked.
Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents more than 1.4 million hard-working men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
