21st Century Fox, BSkyB Discuss European TV Deal
LONDON (The Deal) -- After a humiliating defeat in 2011 which precipitated a restructuring at News Corp. (NWSA - Get Report) Rupert Murdoch is once again attempting to consolidate his European pay-TV operations.
21st Century Fox's 39%-owned British Sky Broadcasting Group plc has entered talks with its largest shareholder about buying the New York TV and film group's wholly owned Sky Italia unit and its separately listed Sky Deutschland, in which 21st Century Fox owns a 57% stake.
Both BSkyB and 21st Century Fox confirmed the talks on Monday, May 12, with BSkyB noting that it doesn't envisage offering a premium to minority owners of Sky Deutschland if it ends up striking a deal with the German company's controlling shareholder. It said an agreement would be subject to " the Sky Deutschland share price continuing to trade on an undisturbed basis."
Sky Deutschland shares had shot up 6.6% to 6.74 euros by early afternoon in Frankfurt, valuing the entire equity at 5.92 billion euros ($8.15 billion).
WATCH: More market update videos on TheStreet TV | More videos from Ruben Ramirez "BSkyB believes at the right value, this combination would have the potential to create a world-class multinational pay TV group," the Isleworth, England company said. "These discussions have not progressed beyond a preliminary stage, no agreement has been reached on terms, value or transaction structure and there is no certainty that a transaction will occur. " The talks come almost three years after News Corp. abandoned a controversial 7.8 billion pound ($13.2 billion) offer for the remaining BSkyB shares amid outrage about a phone hacking scandal centered on News Corp.'s U.K. print operations and the now-defunct tabloid News of the World. The scandal sparked a swinging, judge-led review of U.K. media practices and ethics and criminal trials including one against former senior News Corp. executives which is still runnng. It was also widely seen as influencing Murdoch's later decision to split his film and TV interests from his print operations. Murdoch remains chairman of both companies, however, and any European pay-TV deal is likely to be subjected to tough scrutiny from U.K. media and broadcasting regulator Ofcom as well as the British government. The government has the power to intervene in media mergers where "plurality" is threatened. It did so when News Corp. bid for the rest of BSkyB, though allegations that the-then Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt was biaised in favor of Murdoch almost cost the Conservative politician his career as the phone hacking furore reached fever pitch. BSkyB noted that the talks will be handled by independent directors not linked to its largest shareholder. Independent directors are led by Chairman Nicholas Ferguson and Andrew Higginson, who is senior independent director and a former CFO of food retailer Tesco plc. 21st Century Fox said it's been reviewing its European pay-TV operations for some time. "Over the years we've had numerous internal discussions regarding the organizational and ownership structure of the European Sky-branded satellite platforms. From time to time these conversations have included BSkyB, however no agreement between the parties has ever been reached," the company said. BSkyB shares were down 2.3% by late morning at 870 pence, valuing its entire equity at 13.6 billion pounds. Representatives of 21st Century Fox couldn't immediately be reached for further comment, and a BSkyB spokewoman declined to elaborate on the company's statement.

Alien Typhoon (Apple II)
100 point score based on reviews from various critics. 3.6
5 point score based on user ratings. |
Alien Typhoon is a variant of the arcade game Galaxian. It is a shoot-'em-up where a formation of alien ships attack your lone starship at the bottom of the screen. The aliens peel off from the formation and attack you in different patterns, depending on the color of the ship. The two ships at the top are the motherships and they bring an escort of two red aliens with them to guard them, but if you can shoot the escort and then the mothership, you'll score lots of points.Screenshots

Louis Vuitton Chooses 16-Year-Olds Over Supermodels for Fall 2011 Ad Campaign
>> Louis Vuitton populated its Fall 2011 runway with supermodels like Kate Moss, Amber Valletta, Carolyn Murphy, and Naomi Campbell, but you wouldn't guess it based on the collection's campaign. Instead of its usual top model or actress seasonal face, the brand went with a cast of young upstarts — very young, in some cases: 16-year-old Zuzanna Bijoch, 15-year-old Daphne Groeneveld, 20-year-old Gertrud Hegelund, 16-year-old Nyasha Matonhodze, 20-year-old Anais Pouliot, and Fei Fei Sun, who was born in 1989.
Matonhodze, for her part, said of the moment she found out she was chosen: "My eyes filled up with tears and I thought 'Lord, you are lucky!'" The campaign was shot by Steven Meisel in a vintage car at a disused Brooklyn aerodrome; Matonhodze added of her experience: "It didn't actually hit me until I was sat in a Rolls Royce sitting eye-to-eye with Mr. Meisel. He is a wonder to work with, he and Marc [Jacobs] made me feel beautiful." Jacobs added of the set: "Who wouldn't want to be this gorgeous young woman in the back seat of this beautiful car?"

Is there a lost civilization under the Persian Gulf?
A new review of research suggests that some of the earliest humans outside of Africa lived some 75,000 to 100,000 years ago on a once-fertile landmass that is now submerged under the Persian Gulf.
Veiled beneath the Persian Gulf, a once-fertile landmass may have supported some of the earliest humans outside Africa some 75,000 to 100,000 years ago, a new review of research suggests.
At its peak, the floodplain now below the Gulf would have been about the size of Great Britain, and then shrank as water began to flood the area. Then, about 8,000 years ago, the land would have been swallowed up by the Indian Ocean, the review scientist said.
The study, which is detailed in the December issue of the journal Current Anthropology, has broad implications for aspects of human history. For instance, scientists have debated over when early modern humans exited Africa, with dates as early as 125,000 years ago and as recent as 60,000 years ago (the more recent date is the currently accepted paradigm), according to study researcher Jeffrey Rose, an archaeologist at the University of Birmingham in the U.K.
"I think Jeff's theory is bold and imaginative, and hopefully will shake things up," Robert Carter of Oxford Brookes University in the U.K. told LiveScience. "It would completely rewrite our understanding of the out-of-Africa migration. It is far from proven, but Jeff and others will be developing research programs to test the theory."

Feeling alone he hid his experiences from everyone until one day he discovered the book "Communion" which detailed the extraterrestrial experiences of its author, Whitley Streiber. This book inspired him to write his own book about his life. He married and lived in Florida for more than a decade, but his experiences continued to haunt him. Ending his marriage amicably to deal with his demons, he moved back to Los Angeles to focus on writing his book, "The Curse of the Gifted."

Nite Callers Bigfoot Radio Presents: Massachusetts Researcher Dave McCullough
in Paranormal
Dave was born in 1965 in Lowell Massachusetts, where he still resides. As a young child, the television show "In Search Of" with Leonard Nemoy sparked his interest in Cryptozoology. After a longtime interest and reading information on the internet in the 90's his eyes were opened to the fact that it wasn't just a West Coast phenomena. The book Monsters of the North Woods by Paul Bartholomew really hit home and he realized that New York and New England has had a long history amongst native people and early explorers involving the Sasquatch in the Northeast.
In 2005 Dave went from being an avid reader to someone who wanted to be more hands on so he attended a BFRO expedition in Whitehall, NY. After talking to several local eye witnesses, one being a police officer, about their experiences, he was completely hooked. This started his love of the outdoors having never experienced hiking and camping growing up in a city environment. As an adult Dave was able to travel the East Coast, where he started investigating the sighting reports in his area.
After the BFRO Expedition he joined the NESRA Research group and attended several expeditions with them in the years since. One of them being part of the group that was used in a Monsterquest episode "Bigfoot in New York". In 2008, Dave attended one of the first expeditions that included several different research groups of the East Coast in Virginia. These groups investigated continuously for two weeks straight. Since then, he has been to the West Coast multiple times. Dave has made great friends from his time in California and Washington State as well as many more all across the country. Since April 2012 he has been researching with Squatchachusetts where he is currently active in Massachusetts.

FAU forward Jordan McCoy drives to the basket against South Alabama on Thursday. (Owl Access Photo)
After falling behind early, FAU can't catch South Alabama as the Owls lose their Sun Belt Conference opener to the Jaguars 77-66 on Thursday at The Burrow.
Originally published on 11/29/2012
by Alyssa Barbieri
BOCA RATON – The first half of Florida Atlantic's Sun Belt Conference opener against South Alabama proved to be the difference in the Owls' 77-66 loss to the Jaguars on Thursday at the Burrow.
The Owls (2-4, 0-1 Sun Belt) seemed to be in control early in the first half. They led 10-6 before the Jaguars went on a 17-2 run that spelled the beginning of the end for FAU.
"It was like all of a sudden guys forgot who their best shooters were," said Owls coach Mike Jarvis.
"You can't lose your mental focus and not remember who the other team's best shooters are. And that's what happened."
South Alabama led by as many as 18 points in the first half and held an 11-point halftime lead.
"We had a three-to-four minute span where we just shut down and they went on a run and we never recovered," said senior guard Greg Gantt. "We didn't make plays down the stretch defensively. We gave up offensive rebounds, defensive position, open 3's."
The Jaguars (3-3, 1-0) dominated the Owls in the paint and from 3-point range in the first half. USA made seven 3-pointers in the first half, but were held to 0-for-2 in the second half.
FAU couldn't dig themselves out of their first-half deficit. Even during their best moments in the second half, the Owls couldn't manage to trim the deficit to less than seven points.
"We didn't click when we took quick shots, turned the ball over off one pass, forcing it inside off the dribble," Gantt said. "[We've got to] limit our turnovers and just utilize our offense, utilize our strength and move the ball."
Gantt, the Owls' leading scorer this season, scored 29 points, which tied his career-high. Freshman guard Stefan Moody scored 16 points.

"The individual mandate exceeds Congress's enumerated commerce power and is unconstitutional.

"My main criteria for selecting members was to identify serious, constructive senators who are interested in achieving a result that helps to get our nation's fiscal house in order.

Caritas marks seven years of relief efforts in Darfur
2011 was a historic year for Sudan. It saw the secession of the southern part of the country from the North after one of Africa's longest running civil wars.
But in Sudan's Darfur region conflict continued. More than 300,000 people have been killed since 2004 in Darfur and over 2.7 million people forced from their homes.
Caritas Internationalis members provide food, clean water, health care and other humanitarian services regardless of social, religious or ethnic differences to over a million people in West and South Darfur through two programmes of work.
A Catholic Relief Services (CRS is a US Caritas member) programme meets the immediate and long-term development needs of more than 500,000 people.
Caritas also works with the Act Alliance of Protestant and Orthodox aid agencies in a unique ecumenical cooperation, through the operations of Norwegian Church Aid, Sudanaid (a Caritas member) and the Sudan Council of Churches.

1 July 2013 - Verneukpan
The first stop of our family overland holiday through the Northern Cape, South Africa in a Landrover Defender 130 TDi.
Verneukpan is a widespread dry salt pan south of Kenhardt, between Swartkop and Diemansput in the Northern Cape, South Africa. Verneuk is Afrikaans for to trick, mislead, screw or swindle. The surface is completely flat, claimed to be estimated 57 kilometres (35 mi) long and 11 kilometres (7 mi) wide.
In 1929 the pan was used by Sir Malcolm Campbell, attempting to raise the land speed record in his Napier-Campbell Blue Bird.

Check those $9.99 squares sometime to see if they are really square. I bet they are not even close. I have several squares and not one of them is square so getting one that is guaranteed square is worth a lot to me. Same thing with combination squares. I have three of them at the moment and only one of them is square and it is a Stanley yellow one that I just bought because my others I found were not square after many mistakes due to lack of accuracy. $169 is a lot of money but you can be sure that anything from Woodpeckers is top notch. I just got my 50" straight edge rule and Paolini Pocket rule today after waiting several months to get it. It is a beautiful piece of anodized aluminum and is straight to .005". The pocket rule is really nice as well and will come in handy. I will probably get the square at some point but you have to decide soon as it is a one time tool run that may not come around again for a while and if you do decide to preorder make sure you have a lot of patience because these one time tools don't show up for quite a while. -- "I work so I can fish"! |

I can't see how they justify that price Charlie. It annoys me that just because many cheap squares are not square, manufacturers think they can charge a premium price for setting up their machines properly and cutting something at 90 degrees. I also doubt that it would be a lifetime tool if it is made of aluminium (UK spelling). I've had squares made of aluminium before and they dent easily and get scored if you use a knife with them. I spent my money on a large Starret combination square. Now there is accuracy and longevity. -- Andy -- Old Chinese proverb say: "If you think something can't be done, don't interrupt man who is doing it." |

They do make good looking tools. And I'm sure they are as acurate as they claim, but…. for $169.00, I just cant justify spending that much on a square. -- Pete B. |

It may come square but drop it once and it's a $169 89° measure. |

Programs producing top pros
Duke and Wake Forest lead the programs that have produced NBA stars
In the 2012 NBA draft, 30 general managers will do their level best to pick players who someday will land on this list of NBA leaders in career player efficiency rating. PER, the brainchild of my ESPN Insider colleague John Hollinger, measures a player's overall efficiency on offense and defense.
If those NBA GMs are smart or lucky or both, they'll draft a player who joins the likes of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul atop this efficiency leaderboard. Are there any clues to be offered by recent history? Specifically, I wondered whether all those front offices could save themselves a lot of time breaking down game tape by simply making a phone call to a particular Division I head coach. If certain programs have demonstrated the ability to produce players who become highly efficient NBA performers, it stands to reason that current stars coming out of those programs merit a close look.
On that basis, perhaps the NBA should take a longer gander at Austin Rivers. There's simply no mistaking that Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski has excelled at cranking out players who put up glittering PER numbers in the professional ranks, and coming from that program is one thing Rivers has in his favor.
Here are the schools that have produced the most members of a most exclusive club, top-50 performers in terms of career PER among active NBA players.
To read about the other programs that have excelled at producing high-quality NBA players, you must be an ESPN Insider.

Linux Syndicate Launches
Off the Beat: Bruce Byfield's Blog
Like many people, I start most mornings by visiting sites devoted to free and open source software (FOSS). Even though I often weed my list, I still look at several dozen on any given day, so I appreciate aggregator sites that collect URLs and save me time. That's why I appreciate the launching of Linux Syndicate, a new site run by David Graham, a former colleague of mine at Linux.com. The site has only been active a few days, and Graham is still tweaking it, but already it promises to be one of the most complete FOSS aggregators.
Graham has been a GNU/Linux user since 1995, and a Debian user since 1998. He is a co-founder of the Open and Free Technology Community, an organization best-known for providing IRC channels to FOSS groups, and has served as its chair three times and its ombudsman twice. He has also been elected three times as a board member of Software in the Public Interest, the non-profit society face of projects such as Debian and OpenOffice.org. He is better known online as "cdlu," which sounds like a name for Cthulhu's younger brother, but is really short for "Confused Debian Linux User".
From June 2000 to November 2008, apart from a six month layoff in 2002-03, Graham was on contract with SourceForge to run News Vac, a collection of links and brief descriptions that ran on the right side of such sites as IT Managers Journal, Newsforge, and Linux.com. When he started, Graham recalls, "RSS feeds were not common, if they existed at all." He started by writing regular expressions to help locate stories, which would be scored by keywords and manually judged for inclusion.
Three years ago, Graham linked his personal blog to an aggregator for the Canadian Liberal parties. "I quickly found the aggregator easily gameable," he says. For instance, "You could keep your story on top as long as you wanted by updating the timestamp. I offered to fix [it] and ended up rewriting the aggregator from scratch, including the RSS feed parsing. Since then, I've been using the code for other aggregators."
When SourceForge stopped running LInux.com in November 2008 in preparation for the site's sale to Linux Foundation, Graham became unemployed. "At SourceForge I was on contract, and was not offered severance, nor was I eligible for employment insurance," Graham explains. "Having had several interviews, I decided to go the route of what the New York Times called 'forced entrepreneurship' and combine my code with my old job as the News Vac editor at Linux.com." In other words, Graham concluded that he had nothing to lose by starting the site and trying to develop it.
The front page of Linux Syndicate is divided into two columns. On the left, the front page displays news stories about FOSS, selected by keyword matching. On the right are postings from FOSS blogs, which are not sorted by keywords. If you prefer, you can click one of the other two tabs at the top of the page and display a single column of news or blog entries.
One of the features of the site is that it uses cookies to leave a red box with the text, 'You have read to here' so that each time you log in, you can continue reading where you left off. Should the point where you stopped reading no longer be on the front page, the page will load up to 500 additional stories to help you find your place. Considering that the site can load half a dozen stories or more each hour, this marker should greatly ease readers' efforts to keep current.
For now, he says, "The site is very basic, and designed to be highly practical with minimal superfluous features." However, he is constantly looking for sites worth adding to the feed. He is also considering adding the ability for others to contribute content and exploring the use of AJAX "to keep it up to date for readers and reducing server load."
Graham adds, "I am always open to suggestions for other features as well." He is also working on improving the code and offering it to other online communities.
"We'll see how it goes," he says.
Currently, the site is running only a half dozen Google ads, although that might change as Graham explores various possibilities for making the site pay for itself, or even turn into his major income source.
However, Graham suggests that he might continue the site, regardless of whether it becomes self-supporting. "I'm doing this because I care about information availability in Linux, which is also why I worked for SourceForge and its predecessors in open source news for more than eight years."
But, whatever happens, the result is a centralized site for keeping easily informed about FOSS, and the community is richer for it. Already, Linux Syndicate comes close to replacing the old News Vac feature, and the site will only improve as it is tweaked.

Three Trek Nation Features
By ChristianApril 11, 2000 - 11:32 PM
Over the past few days, several new features have been put up at the Trek Nation. First of all, regular Nation contributor and SyFyWorld webmaster Michael Hinman has written an article about the origins of Seven of Nine, attempting to answer several questions Trek fans have been asking ever since the character was introduced:
But the big question is how the heck did we get Seven of Nine? Why is it that her existence seems to contradict everything we know about Star Trek and the Borg? When are we ever going to get any answers to these questions?
It's simple. The answer is right in front of you. Simply look at Modern Trek events and extrapolate the effect those events had on the overall Star Trek universe.
Seven of Nine, since her introduction to Star Trek: Voyager in 1997, has become one of Star Trek's major mainstream celebrities, joining the likes of Capt. Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy and Scotty. Her popularity continues to grow leaps and bounds, and for many different reasons: beauty, talent, and great storylines just to name a few.
You can find the full article by going here. After reading it, feel free to comment about it in this thread at the BBS, or send in your comments to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Secondly, Jeff 'Koganuts' Koga has put up his report of Day Two of last week's Grand Slam convention. The report contains transcripts of the appearances by Nicole deBoer (Ezri Dax), Terry Farrell (Jadzia Dax), Robert Picardo (the Holodoc), Robert Duncan McNeill (Tom Paris), Tim Russ (Tuvok) and Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi). The final report contains a few news bits about upcoming episodes, repeated here:
Jeff's full report can be found here. His report of the RanDoM Flight Champagne Cruise will be put up tomorrow, and will be reachable via this page.
Finally, and this has actually been up for a while already, but Fred Shedian has written a new Take On Trek column, looking at the recent Series V 'Birth of the Federation' reports.

By default panels assumes that you would never want to cache any displays / panes on a $_POST request.
This is quite an assumption, in some cases you might want the contents of a pane, or an entire display to be cached on a $_POST request (for example if it will display the exact same content regardless of GET or POST).
On some pages on our site (where we have a form and surrounding mini panels) - this is giving us a boost of around 2 seconds.

You are not right. I have compared little details in both textures. That is my texture and you have no permission to use it neither to modify it.
Furthermore, the changes you have made to my texture were badly made.
You do not fool me. "Your texture" has worse quality because it is my texture, that has been compressed again.
Ofcourse it would look the same because it is the same airline. It is the livery of the the airline.
Ofcourse it would look the same because it is the same airline. It is the livery of the the airline.
It is exactly the same texture with only a few changes.
It is not actually yours. You have different texture. LOL. It has just the same similarity.

Abu Dhabi: Despite his meteoric rise to number two in the world rankings with victory at yesterday's Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, Germany's Martin Kaymer is still respectful of the two men who stand either side of him in the consistency list — first-place Lee Westwood and third Tiger Woods.

Martin Kaymer wins Abu Dhabi championship
Toppling Woods off World No 2 spot doesn't mean anything to Abu Dhabi champion
- Image Credit: Alex Westcott/Gulf News
- A jubilant Martin Kaymer of Germany after winning the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship in the UAE capital. Kaymer, the World No. 2, went 72 holes with just one bogey to win the tournament.
Speaking after his third Falcon Trophy win (2008, 2010, 2011), which leaves two Europeans in the world rankings at one and two for the first time since Nick Faldo and Bernard Langar in 1993, Kaymer who scored 24 under par (67-65-66-66) remained gracious despite winning by eight shots.
Speaking of Tiger Woods, he said: "It's quite nice to overtake somebody you think of as probably the best player in the world, or the best player that ever lived.
"To be in front of him for a little bit, we'll see how long it takes him to overtake me again, but it makes me very proud to be better in the world rankings than, for me, the best player in the world."
Asked if he viewed himself as the best, having beaten the top four Major winners for 2010 in Abu Dhabi, Kaymer said: "No, I think Lee Westwood; the way he played the Ryder Cup last year, the way he played the Majors — he got really unlucky a few times and couldn't pull off the win. It says in the rankings that he (Lee Westwood) is the best player in the world. It's about consistency, and he's played as consistently as you can imagine. That's why he's the number one in the world and for me the best player in the world."
Kaymer, the 2010 PGA Championship Major and Race to Dubai winner, which handed him Europe's No.1 spot, went 72 holes with just one bogey in Abu Dhabi. He's the first European Tour player to win with only one dropped shot since Tiger Woods at the 2002 WGC CA Championship.
"It doesn't get any better than that — obviously you can make no bogeys but I'm very happy," he said about the feat. "I've never had that and I think I never played as good golf as I played the last four days.
"Our strategy was really good, we were avoiding all the big mistakes. The only bogey I made was on a shank (par four, third hole, round one).
"It's wrong attitude to go into the last round just defending your lead. I think you have to keep playing, keep trying to make birdies," Kaymer said.
Indeed, that's what the German managed with day -four birdies on holes two, three, 10, 13, 16 and 18.
- 264 - Martin Kaymer (GER) 67-65-66-66
- 272 - Rory McIlroy (NIR) 71-67-65-69
- 274 - Retief Goosen (RSA) 70-71-69-64; Graeme McDowell (NIR) 66-70-71-67
- 276 - Gareth Maybin (NIR) 71-67-69-69; David Lynn (ENG) 69-68-67-72.

I'm wanting to attempt Yoopers "Fizzy Yellow Beer" but as a partial mash. Is the conversion that BeerSmith popped out a good one or would anyone tweak anything? Never used BS for an AG to partial conversion before. Original: 7 lbs Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM) Grain 70.00 % 3 lbs Pilsner (2 Row) UK (1.0 SRM) Grain 30.00 % 0.50 oz Pearle [8.40 %] (60 min) Hops 14.4 IBU 0.50 oz Tettnang [4.20 %] (45 min) Hops 6.6 IBU 0.50 oz Tettnang [4.20 %] (0 min) Hops - 1 Pkgs Safale US-05 (Fermentis #US-05) Yeast-Ale Conversion: 12.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) 12.0 oz Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) 8.0 oz Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM) 4 lbs 8.0 oz Amber Dry Extract (12.5 SRM) 1 lbs 8.0 oz Wheat Dry Extract (8.0 SRM) 0.75 oz Magnum [14.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min 1.00 Items Whirlfloc Tablet (Boil 10.0 mins) 0.50 lb Lactose (Boil 10.0 mins) 1.0 pkg Wyeast (Wyeast Labs #1450) Thanks!
What a weird "conversion". Vienna can be used as a base malt, so you don't need to sub that at all. 4.25 lb pilsner DME 4lb Vienna to mash Hop schedule and yeast as original You can add most/all of the DME at the end to keep the color light.
Here's a thought op. Did you pick a style of beer close to her recipe in beersmith? That could be part of the problem...
It's entirely possible. I've never used beersmith before much less done the conversion so...learning curve.

The all-inclusive Shrek: The Whole Story Boxed Set comes out on DVD and Blu-ray today and it includes all four Shrek titles plus the brand-new, limited edition Donkey's Christmas Shrektacular which features all of the beloved Shrek characters performing classic holiday songs as well as 'Shrek's Yule Log' which has the Shrek characters making short, funny appearances in front of a crackling virtual fireplace.
'Shrek: The Whole Story' Boxed Set Out on DVD/Blu-ray
DreamWorks Animation was kind enough to treat a select few of us to experience a special event in honor of the release of the box set on the Glendale campus of the studio with a tour, a first look at the special features of the box set and opening remarks from CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg.
We started our day in the studio's digital dailies room where filmmakers review their work. We were shown scenes from the original versions of Shrek and then the same scenes from the new, re-mastered blu-ray editions of the movies and the newer scenes were sharper, brighter and sounded amazing.
Next, Jeffrey Katzenberg came in to welcome us all to the studio and to talk to us a bit about the Shrek movies over the years and what they have meant to DreamWorks Animation. He talked about how it was important for them to find their own path with animation and their own brand which would be different from Disney or Pixar, something distinctive and not like anything else that anyone does. He called Shrek their 'North star' how it showed them what a DreamWorks animated movie could and should aspire to be.
What the Shrek series has become is the most popular and financially successful animated franchise in movie history. The entire series has earned $2 billion worldwide and gone on to become the most successful animated franchise of all-time, and the fifth most successful film franchise of all-time, behind Star Wars, Harry Potter, James Bond and Batman. Shrek 2 is the most successful animated film in history domestically, and Shrek Forever After is DreamWorks' highest grossing international film of all-time. The original Shrek won the first ever Academy Award for Best Animated feature.
After the opening remarks, we were given a tour of the beautiful DreamWorks Animation campus. The 16-year-old studio has a fitness center, game room and a health conscious cafeteria for all of its employees to enjoy free lunches every day. We were also shown a panel-by-panel storyboard of how an actual animated movie goes from initial idea through to completion. The whole process can take up to 3 to 4 years.
All in all, it was a great day and I have to say that the new Shrek series on blu-ray looks and sounds incredible.

Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Community Partners,
As many of you know, for the past four years, students and teachers at Chief Sealth International High School have organized a weeklong festival called World Water Week. This year we are doing something new and exciting: the first annual Washington State Global Issues Network (WAGIN) Conference.
March 6-8, 2015 (Friday/Saturday/Sunday) we plan to host a few hundred middle and high school students at Chief Sealth IHS. We are partnering with Global Issues Network (GIN), a nonprofit that supports Global Issues conferences in Latin America and Asia. They have worked with a couple of independent schools in the U.S., but our conference will be the first international youth conference of its kind in the United States. The latest GIN conference took place in Buenos Aires in late October. You can watch videos of the student workshop sessions on the conference YouTube channel.
Here's what WAGIN 2015 will look like:
We have started our fundraising efforts. We are reaching out to several local businesses. (We will charge a registration fee for student teams that covers meals and other general expenses – we hope raise enough money to allow local public school students to attend for free).
WAGIN will share some things in common with World Water Week:
And it will bring some new elements:
There are several ways that you can be involved in the WAGIN Conference:

Update 12/10/2014
Registration is now open for the Washington State Global Issues Network (WAGIN) Conference! Visit the conference website: http://globalissuesnetwork.org/wagin/.
Teams of 2-6 students can register for the rate of $100 per student. There is no additional charge for the accompanying teacher. If you would like to request full or partial scholarships, please indicate that in the registration form. We do not want the cost to prevent any student from attending. The fee covers all meals and programming throughout the weekend.
For students who are not from Seattle, there will be three categories of lodging options.
More lodging details will be posted on the conference website soon.
If you are from the Seattle area and would like to host out-of-town students for the weekend, please contact me directly.
Each registered student team will need to submit a workshop proposal – these will be due in early February. You will find student workshop guidelines on the conference website.

Congratulations to Noah Zeichner, the 2013-2014 World Educator award recipient from the World Affairs Council in Seattle.
From their website: https://www.world-affairs.org/programs/global-classroom/world-educator-award/2013-world-educator-award/ …
For almost a decade, Noah has taught Social Studies and Spanish at Sealth International High School. He works diligently to keep each of his students engaged on a global level. For the past six years Noah has taught a class called Global Leadership in which students learn to work as a community as they learn about contemporary global problems. His students then take their knowledge to a nearby elementary school and teach 5th graders lessons that they develop together. For the past three years, he has facilitated a student-led, school-wide festival called World Water Week. This year he helped organize an interdisciplinary 9th grade project (world history/language arts/science) at Chief Sealth. Three hundred students studied water issues and created action projects based on research done during a field experience day. The ten 9th grade classes were connected with ten classes in Kenya with whom they shared their findings. Currently, Noah is deeply engaged in the development of the dual language/Spanish immersion program at Chief Sealth, the first of its kind in the region (content area classes in Spanish).

New map illustrates importance of global competence for U.S. students
Nearly one million data points have been collected to prove what parents, businesspeople, and policymakers already know: American students must be globally competent to succeed in the interconnected 21st century. "Mapping the Nation: Linking Local to Global," a new online resource from Asia Society, the Longview Foundation, and analytics leader SAS, makes a compelling case for a globally competent workforce and citizenry.
Launched at the U.S. Department of Education by Secretary Duncan, Mapping the Nation presents data at state and county levels to show international connections for every county in the U.S. – from jobs tied to global trade and immigrants with rich linguistic resources, to billions of dollars contributed to our economy by international students studying here. It also reveals a significant education gap: Not enough U.S. students at any level, K-16, are gaining the global knowledge and skills needed for success in this new environment.
Check out the our state page: http://mappingthenation.net/state-washington.html.
Please join us on Tuesday, November 12, 2013 at 7:00-8:30 pm for a conversation with Noah Zeichner, Chief Sealth International High School teacher and recipient of the 2013-14 World Educator Award. He will share highlights of his recent trip to Singapore with the Asia Society's Global Cities Education Network and the Center for Teaching Quality.
You can read his recent blog posts to learn more: http://teachingquality.org/blogs/NoahZeichner. Noah will talk about global perspectives on 21st century competencies as well as his big takeaways from visiting schools in Singapore.
After Noah's presentation, Steering Committee members from the Washington State Coalition of International Education will share an update from their recent meetings talking about revitalizing the International Education Coalition. (Learn more about the work of this virtual coalition of individuals and organizations that share a vision of Washington State: Preparing all students for today's interconnected world at http://internationaledwa.org.)
Please register at:
(You can register your interest in the meeting even if you can't attend. We'll follow up later.)
When: Tuesday, November 12, 2013 7:00-8:30 pm
Where: Confucius Institute Education Center @ Chief Sealth International High School
2600 SW Thistle St, Seattle, WA, 98126
Cost: Free
Who's invited: Anyone interested in international/global education from preschool through graduate school.
The Washington Association for Language Teaching (WAFLT) is very pleased to announce that there will be more than one spring regional conference this year!

Contact Rachel Martin (firstname.lastname@example.com) for more details. A westside spring regional will also take place March 21, 2015 at Mount Vernon High School. Contact Catherine Ousselin (firstname.lastname@example.com) for information. The third conference is April 4, 2015 at Central Washington University in Ellensburg. Contact Alejandro Lee (email@example.com) for more details. Registration coming soon at http://www.waflt.net/conferences.html.

Competition takes many forms. It surrounds us as children on the playground. It increases as we realize classes rank students, then into the pressure of college acceptance, and next in the job market. Competition is not only between individuals, it is also between organizations, and states.
As I mentioned in my post last week, our world is becoming ever more interconnected. And competition has taken a new form between nations. Never before have citizens from one country been able to directly compete with citizens of another country for spots in universities or jobs at such a large scale.
Competition results in both negative and positive outcomes. The negative outcomes are job insecurities and fewer resources from the home country spent on their citizens. For example, when international students study at US universities they are receiving an education that a citizen of the US could have received instead. The positive outcomes of competition on such a global scale are that it drives states and people to make improvements. Such competition drives development, which creates great things for society. Using the international student as an example again, they pay more than a US student, which is financially beneficial to the university. The student also brings different beliefs and strengths that can better all students attending the university.
If competition is negative and positive, how should we think about it? We should teach our students and citizens that this is the reality of the world they live in. We can even be friends with the people we compete with. Competition is a factor but there is so much more to our interactions with people that it should not negatively consume us.
Competition affects all of us. Whether it is a policy implemented by our government to develop weapons before other countries or it is as simple as students competing for a higher grade in school, we are surrounded by competition. Competition can make us better people, it can help us grow.
"Contemporary societies are marked by new global trends—economic, cultural, technological, and environmental shifts that are part of a rapid and uneven wave of globalization. The growing global interdependence that characterizes our time calls for a generation of individuals who can engage in effective global problem solving and participate simultaneously in local, national, and global civic life. Put simply, preparing our students to participate fully in today's and tomorrow's world demands that we nurture their global competence" (Asia Society xiii).
As our world rapidly changes with globalization and interdependence, our infrastructures to keep students competitive and competent need to keep pace. Through classroom exchanges and their free time on the internet, students interact from young ages with people all over the world. From my experience growing up in Seattle, attending both public and private schools in the area, there are good global education practices at work. The most salient examples of international education in grade school and secondary school in Seattle are opportunities for students to explore a second language and study abroad.
However, these opportunities are often not fully taken advantage of by the majority of students due to finances and a common view that a second language is only a graduation requirement and not necessarily a lifelong skill. This is where our schools could greatly improve. Using the Asia Society's Global Competence framework, schools could pursue much stronger academic areas of international education.
As a student at the University of Washington I see how competitive not only getting into a strong university is, but also after graduation how competitive the job market is. For example, "3 jobs are created for every 7 international students studying in the United States" (Mapping the Nation). In 2013 close to 820,000 international students studied at U.S. colleges (NPR). Not only are US students competing with each other but they are also competing with students from other countries. Competition is not the only factor that should drive the development of global competence in US schools, but it is important to recognize and adapt to.

Godd value. Just put them up--look great. Hopefully they last a long time. Very nice people we dealt with. Efficient, knowledgeable, and honest.
