"Good place to start a career, but not for everyone "

I have been working at Nielsen full-time (more than 3 years)
For me, Nielsen has been an excellent place to start my career for several reasons 1) it is a training ground for analytic skills 2) It provides a good network of smart coworkers and 3) it looks good on a resume, especially if you want to stay in the consumer goods or marketing research industry.
Analytics Training
I started at Nielsen BASES (innovation services) and knew almost nothing about analytics or the CPG (consumer packaged goods) instrucy. Thankfully, I had done well at college and so I was hired for my potential, not my in depth knowledge of marketing research. Although the initial adjustment to the company was rough, I learned a great deal from analyzing syndicated data, to forecasting to products, to consulting with brand teams about how to improve their new product launches. If you are looking for a company that will help to teach you how to analyze and create a story from data, Nielsen is a solid place to start.
Good Environment with Coworkers
By and large, the employees that I interact with have been very friendly, bright and capable people. People at the company are largely the kind of people that I like to befriend or hang out with after work. Overall, I feel myself becoming smarter because of the people I work with.
Strong Company Name Recognition
As you might know, Nielsen is one of the largest marketing research companies in the world and has a tremendous strategic position. Nearly all scanned products in the United States are sent to just two companies, IRI and Nielsen. Anyone who has studied marketing in-depth or has dealt with consumer products (things you could buy at a Walmart) knows Nielsen. As someone who was unemployed several months after college, I continue to be amazed at how quickly and easily coworkers can find jobs once they have Nielsen on the resume.
Although Nielsen is an good place to launch an analytics or marketing research career, the company provides few incentives to stay with the company. As such, the vast majority of talented employees leave the company after 3 or 4 years, especially in departments such as sales forecasting (BASES) and Mixed Market Modeling (Custom Analytics). The reasons for this high turnover include weak onboarding process, difficulty moving around within the company, the technical nature of the work, poor work/life balance, and insufficient compensation. My examples below will primarily address the forecasting branch of Nielsen.
Although Nielsen has made good gains in terms of training new hires, the adjustment to work is still very rough. The current best practice includes giving a new analyst a large project, preferably one that requres concept and product analysis, a project that takes over a month to complete. This means that most people work long hours to complete the first project and learn quickly, while a meaningful minority do not catch on quick enough and are usually let go within the first year or two.
Moving within the Company
Although some individuals are able to move from department to department, most find this challenging. In order to move, you need to prove that 1) you are valuable enough to stay with the company but 2) not too valuable that your manager doesn't want to you to leave the team. Often people leave the company because they are not able to get out of their current department to a different part of Nielsen.
Technical Work
The work that Nielsen does can be quite exacting and detail oriented. Some leave simply because they don't like marketing research, forecasting or analysis.
Work/Life Balance
As with any project-based supplier, the Nielsen forecasting department has difficulties keeping a good work/life balance. If you are assigned a large project, you have to simply work hard until it is completed. This can mean working 60+ hours per week when things are busy. If you have firm commitments in the evenings and need a definite 8-5 job, this is probably not a good fit for you.
Insufficient Compensation
Nielsen salaries are competitive for new college hires, but pay increases are meager as you spend time working for the company. At the same time, the experience that you get an Nielsen is quite valuable. A number of my coworkers leave Nielsen after three or four years because they can take a 25% pay increase to work somewhere else. Nielsen currently does not have a strong compensation program to keep talented individuals at the company, especially when they have been at Nielsen for over three years.
While most Nielsen managers are doing their best to manage the situation, many issues can be addressed through a few simple steps.
1) Hire based on historical turnover rates. Currently a position is not filled unless someone leaves the company. Unfortunately, finding a new employee and training them to be as productive as the previous employee, will take at least a year. This means that the rest of the team works over-time during that period, causing further burnout. Since the vast majority of employees leave the company by 3 years, Nielsen should hire new employees at a steady rate to back-fill spots and reduce long hours and unneeded employee burnout.
2) Allow better inter-departmental transfers. Although a person might not be great at forecasting, he or she could still be a valuable asset to the company. The current process makes it difficult to move between departments, meaning that Nielsen often loses talented employees needlessly.

I have been working at Nielsen full-time (more than 3 years)Pros
Endless learning opportunities, great work- life balance (at least in my group), plenty of opportunity to move laterally and up the ladder, the company is innovating and staying on top of or ahead of industry trends. You can take your career where you want to- in terms of training and career path, as long as you proactively drive that change.Cons
Terrible training/ onboarding, heavy on 'administrative' work, huge learning curve, the professional services groups are pretty silo-ed... it would be great if we had more and better networking opportunities to learn what is being done on other client teamsAdvice to ManagementAdvice

It took three years of dogged determination for Minnesota bass angler Seth Feider to achieve his goal of qualifying for the Bassmaster Elite Series.
Elite Series pros meet, eat, and prepare to compete in the Bassmaster Elite at Sabine River Presented by STARK Cultural Venues.
A repeat of 2013 may well be in the works for the Elites competing in this year's season opener on the Sabine River.
The Sabine River has proved to be a fickle fishery even with the majority of the Elite Series anglers coming to Orange, Texas, for the second time.
The state of Texas has gotten like 400 inches of rain, snow and ice over the past several weeks, so the system is high and muddy.
Social fundraising helped Carl Jocumsen get back on his feet after a robbery that cost him thousands.
The newest Japanese angler on the Bassmaster Elite Series completes his first practice day on the Sabine River.
This year, when Don Barone gets within a 100 miles or so of an Elite angler's residence, he's going to swing by their hometown and visit.

AARP State President Endorses Greenwald Measure to Expand Health Care for Kids
The following letter to the editor appeared in the July 9th, 2009 edition of the Asbury Park Press:
In a tough economic climate, it can be especially hard to balance the state budget. The fiscal responsibility is to meet the moral obligation of helping people access needed health care through public insurance programs. Keeping people in a program that provides quality, preventive care is a sound investment in New Jersey's future.
Gov. Jon S. Corzine announced on June 29 that he would not enact the proposed $9 million cut to New Jersey FamilyCare. This cut would have closed enrollment for 17,000 low-income parents between 150 percent to 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL).
This excellent news is a direct result of hard work performed by a coalition of advocacy organizations including AARP New Jersey and New Jersey Citizen Action. Not only did the coalition stop the proposed cutback to FamilyCare, but the program has been improved with the elimination of premiums for all children below 200 percent of FPL.
There are many legislators who deserve our thanks. First of all, AARP thanks the governor. We also thank state Sen. Joseph Vitale, D-Woodbridge, for his strong and outspoken support, as well as Sen. Barbara Buono, D-Edison, and Assemblyman Lou Greenwald, D-Voorhees, who helped make this possible.

Steelers Sign WR Tyler Beiler To Futures Contract
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed former Bridgewater College wide receiver Tyler Beiler according to Beiler himself on Twitter. Beiler is 6 foot, 195 pound receiver that the Steelers reportedly watched workout prior to the 2011 NFL draft.
Beiler was with the San Francisco 49ers during the 2010 preseason, but was released prior to the start of the season. He was signed to the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad in September but was waived in the early part of October.
During his Pro Day at James Madison University last March, Beiler reportedly ran an unofficial 40 time of 4.38 and had a 40 1/2 in vertical jump to go along with a 10 foot, 4 inch broad jump.

need pics of ranch house with crown molding
My co-worker is curious to see what a ranch house looks like with crown molding. He has a typical 50s ranch. He is looking to fancy it up a bit but keep with the style. There are many patterns to choose from to keep it sleek but he worries with the lower ceilings how it will all look.
I told him we could probably count on someone here giving him an idea or two.
Your pics would be appreciated.
Here's a pic of my 1970 Florida ranch with crown in a few rooms. It was there when I bought it and I just left it. I would not have paid to put it up and didn't in my new house either, as I believe that crown is only suitable for higher ceiling and fairly formal places.
I believe one's first responsibility is to honor the inherent nature of the house. To take a 50's ranch and try to gussy it up with crown molding and a Tuscan-style kitchen is just silly.
I was thinking European country for the kitchen in my ranch house because that's what looked good to me in the magazines at the time. Fortunately, I quickly came to my senses and realized that the only thing that wouldn't seem strange was a more modern look -- slab doors, glass tile, color, etc.
If there is any way to get your friend to embrace the house and love it for what it is, the design piece will always be easier....path of least resistance and all that...
I live in CA and most all homes are ranch here. We remodeled ours and added new stucco to the outside, but I'd still call it a ranch and almost all ceilings are 8' ceilings. Adding crown can actually make 8' ceilings appear taller since it raises the eye up. I think a simple, smaller crown is perfectly appropriate and disagree that you cannot gussy up a ranch home. I would not do any heavy, dark craftman style moldings, though. I have crown only in the formal front areas of my home.
before crown:
My thoughts are that all the trim in the house need to relate to one another in terms of both color and scale. When we remodeled our house we redid the trim throught the entire house and removed all of the builder grade trim on the doors and base. If all of the rest of the trim is the original builder grade, I would agree just adding crown would look out of place.
Here in the South a lot of ranch houses were built with crown molding. Our housing styles, including ranch houses, lean heavily toward traditional. Crown molding might look out of place in a more contemporary ranch. I grew up in a 1963 ranch with crown in every room. My first house was a 1967 ranch, also with crown in every room. The first time I saw a home with no crown molding, I thought it looked odd ... like they had skimped on building costs.
I also firmly disagree that crown molding is only suitable for high ceilings. My 1979 colonial with "low" 8-foot ceilings has wonderful thick crown molding in all the formal rooms. We plan to add slightly smaller molding in the bedrooms this summer. Just because my home isn't grandiose, doesn't mean it can't have some pretty features like crown molding.
We just built out ranch house and I plan on adding crown to the LR. All our ceilings are 8'. I think it really looks nice.
Val- what is builders grade trim?
sheesharee: What I was referring to was the 30-35 year old plain flat trim and slab hollow core doors that many ranch homes put in--which you can also find in apartments. Since your house is new I think the addition of crown will be a nice touch--esp. as your taste is for more traditional decor--where I think it looks best.
Well, I think my use of only might have been too strong. Clearly the crown looks great in Valinsv's house. But, I think the key is her more formal look in general.
I also think that today's ranch houses are one-story homes with far more architectural interest, inside and out, not quite the same as the ranches of several decades ago.
My new house has Craftsman overtones and what I consider to be slightly overwrought trim, particularly on the windows and doors. To have added crown would have been a big mistake....just too cluttered, imo.

Make sure you select the correct presentation you plan on receiving!
In the past several years, many credit unions have converted to community charters, abandoning at the same time their Select Employee Group (SEG) or business development efforts. One of the trends has been "bye-bye business development, hello community marketing."
Maybe it's time to reverse that trend.
According to award-winning credit union marketing expert Mark Arnold, a community charter should be your catalyst for expanding SEG marketing, not your reason for abandoning it. In this program, Mr. Arnold will explain why it's a mistake for any credit union to write-off SEG relationships. He will explore these three reasons why:
Mr. Arnold will also discuss practical tips and tactics for credit unions to penetrate their SEGs.
Meet the presenter, Mark Arnold:
Mark Arnold, CCUE, is an acclaimed speaker, brand expert, and strategic planner with over 20 years of experience in the financial credit union marketing, business development, human resources, training, and sales. He is also president of On the Mark Strategies, a consulting firm that helps credit unions achieve their desired strategic goals through strategic planning, brand planning, leadership/management training, marketing planning, and staff training.

New beginnings often are exciting, yet terrifying — no one knows what the future holds. Unlimited possibilities lie behind the door to your new beginning: successes and failures, ups and downs, and even some smiles and frowns.
The past is sometimes easier to reflect upon because it is finite, it is done and it cannot offer new surprises in your life. The past, in a sense, is easier to control; the present and future seems mystical and uncontrollable.

Imagine this is a log ready to go through a sawmill. I've sketched out plain-sawn cuts on the bottom half, and quarter-sawn cuts on the top half.
Back in the day I worked at a cabinet shop where we built all the fixtures for a national retail chain. They specified quarter-sawn cherry for all their stores because they didn't want the overly-busy look of plain-sawn cherry on all the walls and cabinets.
This piece of plain-sawn oak has a dramatic cathedral or flame pattern in the face. What you're seeing as flames is the result of the way plain sawing slices across the annual rings. Plain-sawn wood tends to have a much more dynamic grain pattern in the face.
Not all woods provide this benefit.
Three Reasons To Pony Up. Knowing that quarter-sawn wood can out price plain-sawn by a factor of two (or more), here are the compelling reasons to buy it.
- Quarter-sawn wood is more stable than plain-sawn. Not only is it less prone to cupping, it also expands and contracts less.
- Quarter-sawn provides a "quieter" and straighter face grain than plain-sawn.
- In some woods, especially the oaks, quarter sawing reveals dramatic internal rays that add a very cool dimension to the material.
It's relatively easy to find quarter-sawn red and white oak. Other species can be much more difficult to locate in quarter-sawn, and may require a number of phone calls to track down.

the people that judge you right off the bat,
never knowing where to turn, when every
wall becomes a friend, you're stuck in
you're own reality.
With no way out, you wonder if this

There's too much to feel, with everyone
leaving on their heel.
Only faces you can see, talk to you
in the dark, because they know deep
within, their your only exception.
You keep quiet to everything you see,
and the noises that keep you company.
But you can't help but feel, so very lonely.
Don't tell a soul, I promise I'll be good.
But keep believing in me, and my cure
will come right in through the door.
My only wish, is that you stay with me

Everything turns grey again
But please, one thing

upon my frost-decorated jaw,
purrs, stops and purrs again;
A feather climbs its way
onto an owl-eyed moon
bathed in burnt sienna
and flees upon a swan's back.
The waters keep my eyes awake
like moonbeams; wind-stirred,
I shed my husk of dried leaves:
long now they sleep
beneath the grass.
In a tree, somewhere in the distance
I am sure, a hummingbird
hatches its way out of an egg
just so it can taste light
for the very first time.
As I sleep, I am certain,
the sun will rise like a monument
from behind the fringe of a mountain
without asking for applause
and I will be the last to complain.

Chapter One To Lock Eyes With a Stranger.
Black eyes, dusted with gold, glanced anxiously at the thousands of Folk around him. Every one of them was different, and not one looked the least bit like him: tall and rangy, like a pubescent teen, with gray-green skin and spidery, six-fingered hands; soft, black hair fell straight, stopping just below his shoulders. Knifing through the midnight-colored locks were a pair of pointed ears with tips that hardened into tiny, curving horns. Undershot incisors pressed firmly into a swollen upper lip, but drew no blood.
He was a troll. A young troll, and naïve, but a troll nonetheless. The word alone carried connotations of something horrendously ugly and wicked, even in Faerie. Bearing this in mind, Ravus came to the Seelie Court expecting nothing apart from loneliness and solitude. So far, he was getting what he'd anticipated.
Tamson's cerulean eyes scanned the crowds lazily. There he stood, with naught but hi

Will the waves wash a corpse up with it?
Or are they trying to catch hold of me
A faint murmur fills the entire ambiance.
The waters rustle out my name
I walk ahead
Facing darkness in my face
A zephyr swirls around me
Do I smell Death??
Hurried steps
Footprints on the sand
Soils running deep under the water
Am I there yet??
A pandemonium in my head
Cluttered waves, ogreish cries
I run !!!
Into the sea, into the deep
Embrace Life, defunct
Break all barriers
I am alive once again!!!

The air was cold before but even colder when the breeze whistled through it like a paper airplane in a wind tunnel. Sunlight put up a valiant and futile effort to fend of the deep chill and sunk in despair behind a cloudbank. The wind kept blowing. Today was the sort of day where lovers go out and mope on park benches or bridge railings, not necessarily because they had been jilted or because they had even loved the girl that much, but because it was the kind of day that makes one want to freeze their behind off for loves sake. In contrast, it was an exceedingly beautiful day. The sun was consoling itself by making some lovely sparkling reflections on Puget Sound and the freezing wind was perfectly balanced between slight chill and absolutely freezing. As Eloise walked, or trudged, or hurried down the street her eyes watered profusely, but she refrained from lodging

Picasso's djinn,
a muse of eggshells and grandma's lace tablecloths,
cradles the tea kettle to her chest
and abandons Latin words and names
flotsam and jetsam dribbling
irrelevant among the little red tea leaves;
the driftwood of genus and species bumping

She hovers orange and indigo,
a quavering flame of dreams
and drained tea dregs
divination with a soft-spiced voice
at the bottom of the mug,
never quite gone
a flock of Van Gogh crows
frozen in their hayfields.
Lesson 1 - Basics of MeterQUOTE OF THE DAYLesson 1 - Basics of Meter8 years ago in General Non-Fiction More Like This
"Life is tons of discipline. Your first discipline is your vocabulary; then your grammar and your punctuation. Then, in your exuberance and bounding energy you say you're going to add to that. Then you add rhyme and meter. And your delight is in that power."
- Robert Frost
As Robert Frost is saying, meter and rhyme are not the most important parts of writing. They are the most intricate when creating poetry, but poems can be written without them. I began my poetry with free verse, and gradually became more and more fixed as I went on to learn more about how meter affects the poem, and how rhyme, alliteration, assonance, and the like also affect the reader's experience with a piece of poetry. And my free verse is all the better for it. Even if you never write another fixed poem after finishing this course, an intricate understanding of the rules of conventional poe

I look to the stars and wonder
while I listen to the thunder
While one road leads into the night
where the raven sits branches sway
and he calls me to come this way
But the other path leads to light
a voice whispers all should be mine
in a crescent the sun does shine
So wretched is my twisted plight
one road I gaze down for miles
the other devoid of smiles
I feel as if I lost all sight
and let the voices be my guide
there is a Virgil at my side
So only one choice can be right
will I take the way of dark
or will I choose to walk in light?
CoffeeI'm still stuck in the old motions you taught me, the tiny movements and mannerisms that ground their way into the material of my grey matter with the sequential passing of days. They say a human forms a habit in twenty-one days. Whoever they are. I don't think they know this kind of "habit," this mechanic repetition that anchors me to this plane of existence, this autopilot safeguard. Whatever. I don't need them.

Like every other morning for the past month, I sit on the porch with two mugs of coffee and wait for you to come by and pick me up, and just like every other day I'm late to work. I don't know why Dave hasn't fired me yet; maybe it's pity? Maybe he's just waiting for the perfect, most spectacularly miserable day to come by, so he can pat me on the shoulder with a smile: "Hey, you're fired!"
Work passes in a mind-numbing blur of key-tapping, paper-shuffling and coffee trips. I expect you to walk in at any moment and apologize for

Opened by the gates of thoughts.
Wolfs' howls spread in the dark,
Hunting for the light.
Whispering voices of ghosts
Creatures of the undone.
That song of yours
Such a sweet melody to my ears.
Like the child arms around you,
The longest sleep of mine caresses me.
It closes my eyes,
Leaving me in this anxiety.
The words of comfort,
Not getting anywhere.
Passages are closed.
But there's one,
The one towards the glare.
Or is it a trick of light?
No one will ever know the answer,
For the gates are closed.

A cup of tea promise
starts, watered down
lies and coffee
We take a breath,
inhale the aroma of the mug,
accept what we find,
we drink to our own distaste.
Between bitter sips
warmed chests, clutched hands,
we sit in comfort of this liquid--
as if an elixir of life
snuck into the drink.
Despite cups with cracks and chips
we grip our mugs for comfort
and smile.

Sat here with a cup of tea.
Milk and two sugars, sipping away.
Sweet and Warm, it sends my tongue numb.
I inhale it's sweet aroma, stop, and take in another sip.
It embraces my tongue, it leaves it wanting more, down my throat.
MY tongue screams out for more, it wants to feel its silky texture,
It's sickly sweet taste.
I chink the mug on my tooth, but it wont stop me.
I'm wound up by this mixture.
Sip after sip, it's saving me,
from the harsh cold that wishes to embrace my body.
Each mouthful plays with my senses, teases my body.
Abuses my organs.
It's nearing the end of the mug.
It can't be over yet.
This can't be it.
Like Oxygen to my organs, like Heroin to an addict, i need more.
Tea is more than a beverage..
It's a saviour in this harsh winter.
Ah who am i kidding? It's just tea <3

drying her eyes she inquired was this freedom she wanted
while the storm raged on she felt so haunted
across the horizon there was no choice in sight
Closing her eyes to everything she knew she held tight

thrown across the marital bread she felt daunted

Her eyes gleamed barely able to contain the fright
gazing into the mirror seeking a deep insight
but every time she tried she felt so taunted
by those eyes that watched unwanted
so long ago she had already lost the fight

Dance into MadnessEvery moment we are alive,Dance into Madness6 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Has in it the seeds of our own demise
We seek to bury who we are,
And when we are discovered, we act surprised
We blame others for our passions,
Passions which we seek to deny,
And when confronted with the truth,
We use any excuse as an alibi
Life is a painted tapestry,
Of pictures, emotions, and words
Sadly there are so many,
Who use all of them as a scourge
We dance into madness,
With every dark design and dark deed
So many of us simply do not care,
About all those whom we make bleed
We waste our time and lives,
So caught up in what we perceive,
When suddenly without warning,
We are no longer believed
Thankfully we lose with time,
The ease with which we are deceived,
It is not something to be lamented,
It is not something over which to grieve
We dance with madness,
Each and every day,
And it is so very hard,
To dance out of it's reach again
Most of us both live and learn,
And every moment, grow stronger still
Some of us, sadly, only burn,
And we always will

Another one's loss lies down.
An upturned face looking towards the sky.
Laid in a burial gown.
With no sound the wind blows,
Giving the chills in that one's heart.

Marked by the look of thousand eyes.
That one's sign of love,
Suddenly falls on the ground.
The river turns the other way.
Filled with tears of that one's mourn.
Why? That one screamed.
Nobody hears.

So some time ago I went to the Deschutes Brewery and had the opportunity to try their gluten free beer. I was really impressed as I thought it would be tasteless and thin. As I remember this beer actually had a lot of flavor and a decent body. I have seen that there are a few people on this board that are allergic to gluten so a few weeks ago I took it upon myself to email the brewers at Deschutes to see if they would help me with a recipe here is what they sent me.

Purse Card
This paper purse card includes a silver paper compact for messages.
Project by Carole Jolene Himmel from Sunrise, Fla.
Materials and Tools:
12" x 12" patterned scrapbook paper
2-3 sheets of matching 12" x 12" solid cardstock
silver paper
purse template
circle cutter
light table
brass stencils
stylus tool
waxed paper
My Accents accessories – brads
scrapbook tape
foam pop-up squares
1. Trace the base purse template on colored cardstock and cut it out.
2. Cut the decorative pieces:
- 4-inch strip of patterned scrapbook paper
- 2-inch strip of solid cardstock
- 1-inch strip of solid cardstock
- 1/2-inch strip of cardstock for the handle
3. Fold a 4" x 8" piece of solid cardstock in half to make a 4" x 4" square. With the circle cutter:
- Cut a 3-1/2-inch diameter circle about 1/2 inch over the fold line to make a compact.
- Cut a 3-1/2-inch diameter circle from the silver paper and coordinating cardstock.
- Cut two 1-inch circles to decorate the purse and compact.
4. Cut 4-, 2-, and 1-inch strips to fit the front and back of the purse.
5. Dry emboss the compact, two 1-inch strips cut to size, and a couple of extra flowers (made from scraps). To dry emboss, place selected brass stencil on the light box and position cardstock upside down over the brass stencil. Run the ball of the stylus tool in the grooves of the brass stencil to create a raised image on the opposite side of the cardstock. Move the cardstock around to get the desired design. Emboss the entire compact, the 2-inch strips and two scraps for the flowers. Tip: Rub wax paper over the cardstock before dry embossing it. This will make embossing the image easier
6. To assemble the purse: Fold the 1/2-inch strip to form the handle. Place on the back inside cover of the purse. Attach the handle to the purse with brads. Cover the raw edges with a folded 2-3/4 inch circle. Tape half of the circle to the back inside cover. Open the circle and close and tape the purse shut, so that the only opening will be the top of the purse where the half circle is sticking out.
7. Tape the 3-inch strip to the front and back of the purse.
8. Tape the 2-inch strip to the front and back of the purse.
9. Tape the 1-inch strip to the front and back of the purse
10. Cut out two flowers that were made with the cardstock scraps. Tape each one onto a 1-inch diameter circle. Place a brad though the center of each one. Put a pop up square on the back on each one. Tape one centered onto the compact and the other centered onto the half circle sticking out of the top of the purse.
11. Place a small square (about 1/2 inch) of Velcro on the inside cover of the half circle sticking out of the top of the purse. Put a matching piece to meet the first one when it closes. Glue the silver circle to the inside of the compact. Write a message on the inside of the compact and insert the compact into the purse. Place in an envelope and mail.

Football in Brief: Rangnick goes for Salzburg
Monday 25 June 2012
Rangnick goes for Salzburg
The former Schalke 04 coach Ralf Rangnick, who had been linked with the vacancy at White Hart Lane, has been appointed sports director at the Austrian Double winners Red Bull Salzburg.
Rangnick, who will also be in charge of development at sister club RB Leipzig in Germany, is joined by the former France and Liverpool coach Gérard Houllier, who takes over as global soccer director for Red Bull, which owns Salzburg and several other clubs.
The cash-rich club also appointed Roger Schmidt, former coach of the German second division club Paderborn, as head coach. Salzburg have dominated Austrian football since the club was taken over by Red Bull in 2005, winning the league four times, and claiming their first ever Austrian Cup in May.
Pair claim they are free agents
Steven Naismith and Steven Whittaker have objected to the transfer of their contracts to the "newco" club, issuing statements through their lawyers claiming they are now free agents.
Rangers claim the transfer of all player contracts to the re-formed club has already taken place, warning that any players disputing the move could face legal action. But yesterday lawyers acting for Scotland internationals Naismith and Whittaker said their clients would not report for training with Rangers and are seeking new clubs.
Simon Catto of HBJ Gateley said: "Naismith and Whittaker consider they are not employed by any party and are free to consider any employment options they wish."
Kewell returns to England
The former Leeds and Liverpool forward Harry Kewell has left Melbourne Victory in order to head back to England.
Kewell, 33, wants to be with wife, the actor Sheree Murphy, whose mother is "gravely ill".
"It was one of the toughest decisions we've had to make," Kewell said. "I enjoyed playing for Victory and living in Melbourne, but family comes first and together we made a decision that it was best for us at this time."

The Hyundai suicide commercial fiasco has gotten much press. But ad agencies have long loved using suicide as a creative linchpin.

Lesson here is: the Advertising Standards Authority is okay with Beckham's toplessness, but not Julia Roberts's photoshopped face.

And not for the reason you probably think. This ad for Miu Miu featuring "True Grit" actress Hailee Steinfeld was deemed "irresponsible." Another prudish ruling from the same authority that banned the Marc Jacobs ad with Dakota Fanning.

Eritrea - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Market Insights and Statistics
- Language: English
- 13 Pages
- Published: June 2014
- Region: Eritrea
Africell's anticipated 3G launch may shake up mobile internet pricing
This report provides a comprehensive overview of trends and developments in DRC's telecommunications market. Subjects covered include:
Key statistics;
Market and industry overviews;
Government policies affecting the telecoms industry;
Market liberalisation and regulatory issues;
Major players (fixed, mobile and broadband);
Telecoms operators privatisation, acquisitions, new licences;
Infrastructure development;
Convergence (voice/data, fixed/wireless/mobile);
Internet and broadband development and growth;
Mobile data services, including 3G/4G;
Mobile banking;
Average Revenue per User (ARPU).
Following a 30-year dictatorship between 1967 and 1997, the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire) went through several wars and considerable social upheaval. There remain violent conflicts in the eastern part of the country, exacerbated by considerable corruption within the government and police which make it difficult for the government to extend its control effectively in these regions. The economy is heavily dependent on revenue from the mining sector though much economic activity occurs informally and is not reflected in GDP data. The global economic crisis reduced GDP growth to around 3% in 2009, but it returned to 7% in 2010-12, increasing to 8.5% in 2013 and an anticipated 8.7% for 2014.It is expected to remain stable at that level for the next two to three years, largely supported by mining.
Largely due to the country's troubled history, the national telecom system remains one of the least developed in the region. The national operator, SCPT theoretically has monopoly rights under 1970 legislation. However, recognising the need for telecommunications infrastructure, the government is only loosely regulating the sector.
Mobile network operators have taken over as the providers of basic telecom services. By 2001, some 16 private operators had been granted mobile telephony licences and the subscriber base was growing at triple digit rates annually. However, the proliferation of networks also caused frequency spectrum shortages, interference and compatibility problems. As a result, the mobile sector has since consolidated and now has five major players.
Development of the DRC's internet and broadband market has been held back by the poorly developed national and international infrastructure. However, the country was finally connected to low-cost, high-quality international bandwidth through the WACS submarine fibre optic cable in 2013, and SCPT is rolling out a fibre optic national backbone network with support from China. An alternative terrestrial international fibre connection exists via neighbouring countries. Broadband access is provided by 3G mobile services and wireless networks using WiMAX and EV-DO technology. The country's first commercial LTE networks are imminent.
Market highlights:
Connection to WACS international fibre optic cable finally completed;
National fibre backbone rollout continues;
Fifth mobile network thrives despite denial of interconnection;
3.5G mobile broadband services introduced;
First LTE network set to launch later in 2014 following government consultations with wireless operators;
Airtel Congo and MTN Congo fined for mobile network quality and availability failures;
Africell takes Vodacom, Tigo and Airtel to court over their refusal to interconnect networks;
Yozma Timeturns pays initial licence fee instalment, proposes mobile services launch;
Vodacom reaches dispute settlement with its partner CWN, paving the way for continued investment in the country;
Airtel increases investment undertaking for DRC to $550 million, partners with BGFIBank Group to make its Airtel Money service available to bank customers.
Regulator criticised by ITU for setting mobile pricing.
Estimated market penetration rates in the DRC's telecoms sector end-2014

Good Price/Quality relation We enjoyed the stay. With very beautiful sorroundings. Very friendly hospitality, and a nice restaurant service (specialy dinner service, and the dinner room chief's smile and hospitality - Cláudio). Nice swimming pool area. Nice breakfast, but could have more diversity (for a 4* hotel). Beach area need some work and improvement in equipment. Nice, friendly and professional care - Congratulations and nice job for first year open to public. We recomend this hotel and I am sure we will came back.

Blagojevich defense to call last witnesses
Chicago — Lawyers for Rod Blagojevich are expected to call their last two witnesses now that the ousted Illinois governor has finished testifying.
The presiding judge said prosecutors could also be ready to present their closing arguments Wednesday.
It's unclear who the last two witnesses are. The defense has called three witnesses already. Blagojevich was on for seven days, describing his poor childhood, denying all allegations and even acknowledging under cross-exam that he's a convicted liar.
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. also testified for the defense.
Judge James Zagel says he expects the jury to begin deliberating Thursday after the defense presents its closing.
Blagojevich is accused of seeking to sell or trade President Barack Obama's vacated Senate seat and shaking down business executives for campaign donations.

Massachusetts regulators have accused a Boston-area hedge fund of insider-trading, the latest such case to involve hedge funds' use of expert networks.
Risk Reward Capital Management's James Silverman received nonpublic information about at least two pharmaceutical companies from Guidepoint Global consultants, the lawsuit, filed by Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, alleges. Guidepoint has not been accused of any wrongdoing, and the alleged tipsters were not identified in the complaint.
Galvin said that Silverman used the insider information to revive the flagging fortunes of his $24 million RRC Bio Fund. The hedge fund, like most others, took a beating in 2008, but posted back-to-back years of 50%-plus returns in 2009 and last year.
"With access to Guidepoint, the fund began a dramatic resurgence," the lawsuit alleges. "These returns were generated, at least in part, upon Silverman's receipt of material non-public information he received through Guidepoint consultants."
Galvin's allegations mirror those made by the Justice Department in their ongoing insider-trading probe. Eight people with ties to another expert-network firm, Primary Global Research, have been charged in that case.
Silverman allegedly got insider information on drug trials conducted by Ariad Pharmaceuticals, based, like RRC, in Cambridge, Mass., and California-based Questor Pharmaceuticals.
"Silverman apparently also knew that he should not have received this information, as he deleted his notes containing the study results prior to producing them to the [Securities] Division in response to its subpoena," the lawsuit adds.
Guidepoint, for its part, said it has "cooperated fully" with the investigation.

Canceled: November 6 Open Forum for the Carnegie Application for Community Engagement Classification
From the Coordinator of Community Engagement
The open forum on the Carnegie application process for becoming an "engaged institution" scheduled for Wednesday, November 6, has been canceled.
The application process for the Carnegie Foundation's Elective Community Engagement Classification is under way and will be completed during the early part of the spring 2014 semester. This process will further enhance Buffalo State's growing reputation for community engagement.

A few favorites from yesterday and today
Garden shot
Mildred Mitchell-prettiest bloom I ever saw on it.
Spacecoast Behavior Pattern
Geneva Firetruck
Raspberries in Cream
Little low to the ground this year Doyle Pierce
and Smokey Mountain Autumn
I'll need to post some seedlings later, but have to head out soon to take the boss to the airport. :)
That Mildred Mitchell shot is fantastic! I like Doyle Pierce too :D
Here is a link that might be useful: GothicLibrarian.net
Love the bed shot, so many blooms! Geneva Firetruck is nice and bright, love it. And my favorite is Raspberries in Cream, so pretty. I saw it 2 years ago for the first time and had to have it (when the price came down ;)) I am sad to read that it is so tender :(( It's actually the smallest of the last year news ones in my garden, but has a little scape. I will hope!
Celeste-I am lucky enough to have a father and aunt who share with me sometimes on nicer flowers. As well as some people from the garden club who sell me things at a discounted price when theirs grow some. Plus I've found some great deals at Maryott and a few finds on the lily auction. I've been working on getting nicer flowers for the past ten years. :)
