Augustine Fou | September 13, 2012 | Comments
With the rise of digital, there are so many new technologies, tactics, and techniques that it simply isn't possible for any one agency to have all of that expertise in house at the same time.
In my recent work with clients, many of them have articulated an urgent need to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their relationships with agency partners and vendors. It used to be much easier, when there was one, giant agency-of-record (AOR) that was supposed to coordinate all the moving pieces to ensure the client got the best work. But with the rise of digital, there are so many new technologies, tactics, and techniques that it simply isn't possible for any one agency to have all of that expertise in house at the same time.
Trend Toward Specialization
The last few years has seen the dramatic rise of small, niche specialists in various digital disciplines like paid search, organic search optimization, mobile marketing, etc. and also the rise of tools providers, measurement and analytics players, etc. They each carved out a tiny and highly specialized area they could make money on. And clients added many of these new vendors and partners to their rosters to perform these specialized tasks, augmenting the core services provided by existing agencies of record, which were no good at any of these new disciplines.
Unfortunately this has led to the current situation – dozens of agencies working on various parts of marketing projects and little coordination among them. These vendors were hired by different individuals from different departments on the client side.
Only recently have marketers started to ask how the various digital disciplines fit within the greater context of their overall marketing and advertising and how the various agencies should interact with each other to coordinate their activities.
A Historic Focus on Production
In the current situation, where each vendor is busily working away at its own task but with little to no coordination with other vendors doing other marketing activities, clients are getting underserved – budgets are fragmented, costs are higher, inconsistencies are rampant, and business impact is adversely affected -- euphemistically, "sub-optimal." This is like having one chef beating the eggs, another sifting the flour, and a third chopping the nuts in different parts of the kitchen. They don't talk to each other and they don't mix their ingredients together to make cookies.
Historically, agencies got paid to execute campaigns and make stuff (e.g., make the TV ad, produce the print ads) – once the client bought the "big, creative idea." Even to this day, the smaller digital specialists get paid to "do stuff" – like run a paid search campaign, make a website, send out emails, make display ads, etc. And they often give away the big idea in order to win the business – a la the days of Mad Men.
But these days, the margins in most forms of production work are being pushed down to zero or even negative, because
So if agencies can no longer make a living on production, what else can they do?
Many Agencies Now Hang a "Strategy" Shingle
Do strategy, of course. Or so they think.
Most agencies now say they do strategy too. But how do clients tell if it is good or bad, or even if it is strategy at all? Well, obvious red flags include:
Additional points are covered in my ClickZ article from earlier this year, Digital Strategy and How to Tell if Your Agency Has Any.
Further, if agencies submit proposals where they charge for the production work, but give away the "big idea" or strategy, then how good could that strategy possibly be if they developed it over the course of the pitch (e.g., a week or two) with little to no interaction with and input from the client?
Also, if the tactics they are recommending are the things they make money on, how objective could they possibly be in finding what is actually the best for the client? There is an obvious and inherent conflict of interest.
I would respect an agency more if they actually charged fees for and took appropriate time for the development of a strategy, which should include collaboration with the client who has industry specific knowledge and experience. The strategy should show direct correlations to the client's business and marketing goals. See the chart "Digital Strategy Tree".
Most agencies don't do this and most are really not set up to do it – they don't have people who are experienced in business strategy, marketing strategy, and digital strategy.
Clients' Department Silos Hinder Efficient Marketing in the Digital World
The client side of the house also needs to be optimized. As mentioned before, sometimes different vendors are hired by different individuals in different departments. Sometimes, former e-marketing departments morph into "digital" departments but remain separate departments from IT, marketing, branding, etc. Sometimes, digital duties fall in the IT department, social media duties go to PR, and website design goes to brand managers.
All of this leads to cases of too-many-chefs or design by committee, which inevitably ends in hodgepodge websites or inconsistent social presences. And approval processes involving many departments or stakeholders are ultimately too inefficient to be effective in the new digital age, where speed is of the essence.
Articulate & Standardize a New Value Chain
So how should clients proceed with optimizing their agency relationships? The first step is to articulate a new value chain, where developing the right marketing strategy is the first and most valuable step. Then, agency partners and vendors can be invited to articulate digital strategies and select specific tactics that map to the marketing strategy and can be shown to directly impact business objectives. This should be a process, done in collaboration with the client, not done in isolation. The real value is in the correctness of the ideas and strategies, not in the creativity of the big idea, as it once was in a TV-ad-centric world.
Once a strategy is created, the right executional partners should be selected to carry it out, with metrics in place to monitor the progress in real-time so optimizations can be made while the campaign is still running, not after it is over. In this way, the process of creating strategy is much more like the scientific process, rather than a creative exercise, because we start off with a hypothesis, supported by a deep understanding of customers and the industry. Based on this hypothesis we run initial campaigns (i.e., pilots or experiments). Then the data is immediately analyzed to see if the hypotheses were correct and tweaks are made if necessary. This is an iterative process, with continuous improvement.
This is a value chain that is foreign to most agencies and clients today. But trends point to it as a necessary next step in the evolution of agency-client relations. What are you and your departments doing to adapt and drive this change?

Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad on Wednesday night faced the ire of angry relatives, who alleged that there was delay in the handing over of bodies of those killed in the Delhi High Court blast.
The relatives surrounded Mr. Azad at the Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital and complained to him that despite a ten-hour wait, they were not handed over the bodies.
N.K. Gupta, relative of victim Nalini Aggarwal (55), alleged that the family got a confirmation of her death at 12 noon but the post- mortem was not conducted till late night.
Mr. Azad told the angry relatives that no one expected such an emergency. He told them that the authorities were doing whatever they could do. "We are taking every step to ensure that such things don't recur," Mr. Azad said.

Re-making a frontier community or defending ethnic boundaries? The Caucasus in Cossack identity
Popov, Anton. (2012) Re-making a frontier community or defending ethnic boundaries? The Caucasus in Cossack identity. Europe-Asia Studies, 64 (9). pp. 1739-1757. ISSN 0966-8136
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/09668136.2012.718422
The essay focuses on the notion of the Caucasus as a reference point in the construction of Cossack identity in southern Russia. Since the late Soviet period, the Cossack revivalist/nativist movement has emerged in the territories which constituted the frontier zones of Tsarist Russia. Arguably, the historical Cossack hosts were established as a kind of frontier community which played an important role in the expansion of the Russian Empire. This essay examines how post-Soviet Cossacks reinterpret the meanings of the Caucasus as a spatial and cultural realm where, or in relation to which, they produce their identity as a distinct ethnic and cultural community.

Deimatic behaviour
Deimatic behaviour in animals means any pattern of threatening or startling behaviour, such as suddenly displaying conspicuous eyespots, so as to scare off or momentarily distract a predator, thus giving the prey animal an opportunity to escape.[1][2]
Deimatic, dymantic or threat displays[3] occur in widely separated groups of animals, including moths, butterflies, mantises and phasmids among the insects. In the cephalopods, different species of octopuses, squids, cuttlefish and the paper nautilus are deimatic.
Displays are classified as deimatic or aposematic by the responses of the animals that see them. Where predators are initially startled but learn to eat the displaying prey, the display is classed as deimatic, and the prey is bluffing; where they continue to avoid the prey after tasting it, the display is taken as aposematic, meaning the prey is genuinely distasteful. However, these categories are not entirely mutually exclusive. It is possible for a behaviour to be both deimatic and aposematic, if it both startles a predator and indicates the presence of antipredator adaptations.
Vertebrates including several species of frog put on warning displays; some of these species have poison glands. Among the mammals, deimatic displays are found in species with strong defences, such as in foul-smelling skunks and spiny porcupines. Such displays are often combined with warning coloration. Thus these displays in both frogs and mammals are at least in part aposematic.
In insects[edit]
Deimatic displays are made by insects including the praying mantises (Mantidae) and stick insects (Phasmatodea). While undisturbed, these insects are usually well camouflaged. When disturbed by a potential predator, they suddenly reveal their hind wings, which are brightly coloured. In mantises, the wing display is sometimes reinforced by showing brightly coloured front legs, and accompanied by a loud hissing sound created by stridulation. For example the grasshopper Phymateus displays red and yellow areas on its hind wings; it is also aposematic, producing a distasteful secretion from its thorax.[2] Similarly the threat display of the walking stick phasmid (Peruphasma schultei) is not a bluff: the insect sprays defensive dolichodial-like monoterpene chemical compounds at attackers.[4]
Among moths with deimatic behaviour, the eyed hawkmoth (Smerinthus ocellatus) displays its large eyespots, moving them slowly as if it were a vertebrate predator such as an owl.[2] Among butterflies, the peacock butterfly Inachis io is a cryptic leaf mimic with wings closed, but displays 4 conspicuous eyespots when disturbed, in a display effective against insectivorous birds (flycatchers).[5]
An experiment by the Australian zoologist A.D. Blest demonstrated that the more an eyespot resembled a real vertebrate eye in both colour and pattern, the more effective it was in scaring off insectivorous birds. In another experiment using peacock butterflies, Blest showed that when the conspicuous eyespots had been rubbed off, insectivorous birds (yellow buntings) were much less effectively frightened off, and therefore both the sudden appearance of colour, and the actual eyespot pattern, contribute to the effectiveness of the deimatic display.[2]
Many noctuid moths, such as the large red underwing (Catocala nupta), are cryptic at rest, but display a flash of startlingly bright colours when disturbed.[6]
Many arctiid moths make clicks when hunted by echolocating bats; they also often contain unpalatable chemicals. Some such as dogbane tiger moths (Cycnia tenera) have ears and conspicuous coloration, and start to make clicks when echolocating bats approach. An experiment by Canadian zoologists John M. Ratcliffe and James H. Fullard, using dogbane tiger moths and northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis), suggests the signals in fact both disrupt echolocation and warn of chemical defence. The behaviour of these insects is thus both deimatic and aposematic.[7]

In arachnids[edit]
Both spiders and scorpions are venomous, so their threat displays can be considered generally aposematic. However, some predators such as hedgehogs and spider-hunting wasps (Pompilidae) actively hunt arachnids, overcoming their defences, so when a hedgehog is startled by, for instance, the sounds made by a scorpion, there is reason to describe the display as deimatic.[8]
Spiders make use of a variety of different threat displays. Some such as Argiope and Pholcus make themselves and their webs vibrate rapidly when they are disturbed; this blurs their outline and perhaps makes them look larger, as well as more difficult to locate precisely for an attack.[9] Mygalomorphae spiders such as tarantulas exhibit deimatic behaviour; when threatened, the spider rears back with its front legs and pedipalps spread and fangs bared. Some species, such as the dangerous Indian ornamental tree spider (Poecilotheria regalis) have bright colouring on the front legs and mouthparts which are shown off in its threat display when it "rears up on its hind legs, and brandishes the fore limbs and palpi in the air".[10]
Scorpions perform threat displays; when provoked, they spread their pincers and in some cases raise their abdomens, their tails standing near-erect with the sting ready for immediate use. Some scorpions in addition produce deimatic noises by stridulating with the pedipalps and first legs.[8]

In cephalopods[edit]
Deimatic behaviour is found in cephalopods including the common cuttlefish Sepia officinalis, squid such as the Caribbean reef squid (Sepioteuthis sepioidea) and bigfin reef squid (Sepioteuthis lessoniana), octopuses[11] including the common octopus Octopus vulgaris and the Atlantic white-spotted octopus (Octopus macropus), and the paper nautilus (Argonauta argo). Deimatic cephalopod displays involve suddenly creating bold stripes, often reinforced by stretching out the animal's arms, fins or web to make it look as big and threatening as possible.[12]
For example, in the common cuttlefish the display consists of flattening the body, making the skin pale, showing a pair of eyespots on the mantle, dark eye rings, and a dark line on the fins, and dilating the pupils of the eyes.[12] The common octopus similarly displays pale skin and dark eye rings with dilated pupils, but also curls its arms and stretches out the web between the arms as far as possible, and squirts out jets of water.[12] Other octopuses such as Atlantic white-spotted octopus turn bright brownish red with oval white spots all over in a high contrast display.[12][13] The paper nautilus can rapidly change its appearance: it suddenly withdraws the shining iridescent web formed by its first pair of arms from its shell.[12]
In vertebrates[edit]
Among vertebrates, the Australian frilled lizard (Chlamydosaurus kingii) has a startling display in which wide semicircular frills on either side of the head are fanned out; the mouth is opened wide exposing the gape; the tail is waved over the body, and the body is raised, so that the animal appears as large and threatening as possible.[14]
Frogs such as Physalaemus nattereri, Physalaemus deimaticus, and Pleurodema brachyops have deimatic behaviour. These animals inflate themselves with air and raise their hind parts to appear as large as possible, and display brightly coloured markings and eyespots to intimidate predators. Seven species of frogs in the genus Pleurodema have lumbar glands (making the animals distasteful); these glands are usually boldly contrasted in black as a further warning.[15]
Non-bluffing (aposematic) displays occur in mammals which possess powerful defences such as spines or stink glands, and which habitually warn off potential predators rather than attempting escape by running. The lowland streaked tenrec (Hemicentetes semispinosus) raises the spines on its head and back when confronted by a predator, and moves its head up and down. Porcupines such as Erethizon erect their long sharp quills and adopt a hunched, head-down posture when a predator is nearby. The spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius) balances on its front legs, its body raised vertically with its bold pelage pattern conspicuously displayed, and its tail (near the scent glands) raised and spread out.[16]

Deimatic or aposematic?[edit]

In a study of the rattling made by rattlesnakes of different species, the Canadian zoologists Brock Fenton and Lawrence Licht found that the sounds are always similar: they have rapid onset (starting suddenly, and reaching full volume in a few milliseconds); they consist of a 'broadband' mixture of frequencies between 2 kHz and 20 kHz, with little energy either in the ultrasonic (above 20 kHz) or in the rattlesnakes' hearing range (below 700 Hz); and the frequencies do not change much with time (the rattling after 2 minutes having a similar spectrum to that at onset). There was no clear difference in the sounds made by the different species measured: Crotalus horridus, Crotalus adamanteus, Crotalus atrox, Crotalus cerastes, Crotalus viridis and Sistrurus catenatus. This pattern implies that the rattling "could serve as a general attention-getting device", which "is designed as a deimatic or startle display". Its similarity to the "broadband, harsh sounds" used as warning calls by birds and mammals may enhance its effectiveness. Since rattlesnakes can barely hear the sound, it is unlikely to serve as any form of communication to other snakes of the same species. Finally, the sounds are not in themselves loud enough to cause pain and hence keep predators away.[17]
Fenton and Licht note that the effect of a rattlesnake's rattling could be deimatic (startle) in inexperienced animals, whether predators or large animals that might injure the snake by stepping on it, but aposematic (a warning signal) in animals that are aware of the rattle's meaning.[17] They refer to the work of Fenton and his colleague David Bates on the responses of the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus, to the defensive clicks made by moths in the family Arctiidae, which includes the garden tiger moth, Arctia caja. This family includes large, furry, bitter-tasting or poisonous moths. They found that while sounds can startle inexperienced bats, after a few trials the bats ignored the sounds if the prey was edible; but the same sounds can warn experienced bats of bitter-tasting prey (an honest signal).[18]

Do steroids cause brain damage? The answer appears to be, yes.
March 29, 2012 11:57 am
In your hole, does your family sleep in one bed and produce no waste. Until you do STFU.
Steroids=shit for brains
Huh- was aware of 'roid rage, did not know about 'roid retardation.
You're a very special lil' ballplayer, aren't you Jose?
Oh just STFU already and get your ass to the next reality TV show for losers…
Good grief . . . why would anyone listen to someone who can't even spell simple words?
Massive comedy relief from the news today. You're the best, Zip!
He'll never be accepted by mainstream liberalism.
His spelling is atrocious and his grammar is primitive. Liberalism is all about appearance over substance.
Is this a joke?
Jose, perhaps it is you who needs to study. Try reading a book from time to time….
Let me see, is this the same Jose "Roidboy" Canseco who used to race his Porsche up and down Crow Canyon Road at 120 mph during his glory days with the Oakland A's. I guess he is hurting for money and looking for a Goracle handout.
A quiz from a man with a sub 90 IQ? Where do we color in our answers, Mr. Hypocrite?
"Liberalism is all about appearance over substance"
I love that…..
Yes, Jose.
"Hole" families used to sleep in one bed and produce no waste.
They also died at age 45 from scurvy or malnutrition or consumption or whatever.
Now we live in big houses, drive cars, and live to be 87 years old.
How did this happen?
It is called progress. Brought to you by free market capitalism.
You are welcome.
Illiturusee is runnin' umuk in Amaruka.
I think he's typing with his elbows. How can someone who doesn't understand the proper use of they're / their / there possibly comprehend climactic science?
Y'all have to read the full article. Special surprise in his last tweet.
April's fools early?
Yep, he was quite the consumer where I live, when he was in the minors -racing about our streets in his high hp Porsche. Same as ManBearPig; just another loud mouth huckster looking for some more fame.
With America's preoccupation with sports, Canseco will probably get more press than any of the presidential candidates.
Sad… Ain't it?
He a flaming illiterate, an idiot and a hypocrite.
Jose, Globull warming didn't cause your testies to shrink, it was the Roids.
Jose needs to go on Eastbound and Down.
Do steroids cause brain damage?
Canseco was/is STUPID from birth, so NO & YES….
The juice, drugs, and MTV show EXACERBATED his STUPIDITY!!!!!
Too many bean balls Jose.
The science says!
Populations of bears is up.
If Jose Canseco want to be a total fool then let them suffer for their wreckless behavior
I can't wait for his Harvard speech on climate change,his demonstration on his personal efforts to conserve energy and his collection of hard data.
We just need to wait for him to learn english,math,how to print,ecology,biology………….
Awwww! He doesn't care about global warming,sounds like he is in love with the roly -poly bears! I think we should set up a face to face,alone,just the two of them.How romantic! He gets to meet his dream date and she gets lunch!
So much BULLSHIT out of one's mouth at one time. I think the steroids cooked his brain.
simply 'roid rage..can't help himself
"Hole families?"
We're getting complicated scientific advice from a guy who, on Celebrity Apprentice, finish BEHIND the following mental giants:
LaToya Jackson
Gary Busey
Richard Hatch
Lay off the juice, Hose B. I'm worried about you.
Legal issues
On February 10, 1989, Canseco was arrested for reckless driving after allegedly leading an officer on a 15-mile chase. He was found guilty and fined $500.[25]
On April 11, 1989, Canseco was arrested in California for carrying a loaded semi-automatic pistol in his car.[26] He was released on $2,500 bail and pled no contest.[27][28]
On February 13, 1992, he was charged with aggravated battery for allegedly ramming his then-wife Esther's BMW with his Porsche.[26] On March 19, 1992, Canseco pled not guilty to charges of aggravated assault and later underwent counseling and fulfilled a community-service requirement.[29]
Canseco was arrested in November 1997 for hitting his then-wife, Jessica. In January 1998, he pled no contest and was sentenced to one year probation and required to attend counseling.[30]
In October 2001, Canseco and his brother, Ozzie, got into a fight with two California tourists at a Miami Beach nightclub that left one man with a broken nose and another needing 20 stitches in his lip; both were charged with two counts of aggravated battery. The brothers both pleaded guilty and received both probation and community service.[31]
In March 2003, Canseco missed a court appearance while in California working out a custody dispute over his 6-year-old. The judge revoked his probation and sentenced him to two years under house arrest followed by three years probation.[32]
In June 2003, Canseco was arrested at his home for probation violation after he tested positive for steroids. Canseco spent a month in jail without bail.[33]
In May 2008, Canseco revealed that he had lost his house in Encino, California to foreclosure saying his two divorces had cost him $7 to $8 million each.[34]
On October 10, 2008, Canseco was detained by immigration officials at a San Diego border crossing as he tried to bring a fertility drug from Mexico. He stated the drug was to help with his hormone replacement therapy, needed due to his use of steroids.[35] On November 4, 2008, Canseco pled guilty in federal court and was sentenced to 12 months' unsupervised probation by U.S. Magistrate Judge Ruben B. Brooks.[36]
The 2008 A&E Network documentary Jose Canseco: Last Shot chronicles Canseco's attempts to end his steroid use.[37]
Shut the fuck up loser.
Turn up your heat —– Kill a polar bear!
Awesomely stated!
Cooling your body temperature will extend your lifespan 20%? WTF? Human body temperature, blood pH and electrolyte levels all exist in a very narrow range of values. Outside of those ranges, your body can get into serious trouble…temperature included. That ignorant asshole should keep his mouth shut.
Well Jose, we don't all sleep together in my family because we don't qualify as a "hole" family…we live in a house. Thanks for playing anyway.
And Jose, why don't you try that body cooling thing? Hypothermia might become you.
Stick to illegal synthetic hormone therapy, Joe. A poet you ain't.
Not that I really want to respond to this fool's contention that we all need to turn our heat off at night to save energy…I have to:
This is totally false. By turning off your heat at night –your house naturally cools down. Then when you get your cold ass out of bed in the morning and run to turn the heat back on…your system has to use MUCH MORE energy to get the house warmed back up! The same thing goes for your air conditioning. If you turn your A/C off (say when you go out of town or something…) your house gets saturated with heat, and it takes a TON of energy to get it back to being cool again. This can take a few days! Pick a comfortable temperature for everyone in the house, and leave the damn thing alone!
I know… The laws of phyics (thermodynamics in this case) is inconvenient.
… now maybe if he achieved room temperature… for the POLAR BEARSSSS!
Dumbass… To think that kids want to be just like him…
Oh, my God! I can't stop laughing! Jose the Jackass can't comprehend how stupid he is. He sounds like friggin Springsteen — w/o the background noise.
Illiterate and brain damaged is no way to go through life Jose.
Here is a description from another blogger which describes the big picture…….
"What we are witnessing are hopefully the last dying gasps of a very small clique of people, from one short period of time at one American university, who all drank koolaid from the same poisoned well, and have now managed to place themselves in positions that allow them to spew the same nonsensical but very dangerous talking points and policies.
It has been a carefully orchestrated perfect storm of events, and it is up to America and Americans to withstand the storm and let these leftist radicals fade to into history. Obowmao's disasterous presidency, Holder's despicable DoJ, O'Brien's and other radical leftist journalistic meltdowns, and the like are all chipping away at their fragile foundation. A SCOTUS rejection of Obummercare would be another serious blow.
Stay strong. Stay focused. Build the House majority. Win back the Senate majority. Dethrone King Barack with a landslide election. Slash the federal budget with 30% across the board spending cuts. And this disasterous period of American history will come to an end."
Maybe steroids doesn't only make your nuts smaller, it also affects the size of the brain?
Maybe we should have a study on that?
Good to see old hose head making a run at relevance
Actually I think Canseco's mental problems jumped into high gear with this gem:
And the melon's just gotten softer ever since….
….dumb-ass still probably hasn't figured out why all those fruit flies are constantly buzzing around his head.
Jose can you see?????
Nope, sorry, I refuse to take any advice from someone with such a poor disregard for the English language.
And to think I paid $125 for this chumps rookie card back in the day..
Jose your spelling and grammar wouldn`t pass at a 1st grade level.
Don`t you even have spell check?
OMFG, The Goron is dead?!?!
We will have no polar bears soon.. hahahahaha.. polar bears eat baby seals.. take your pick clown Canseco..
So, now we get our words of wisdom from functionally illiterate foreigners. Nice. Why doesn't ol' Pepe go back to wherever he came from mind his own damned business!
Ace posted his tweets as a sort of poem…it's hilarious.
I can't top any of the snark already posted!
I guess I bedder git of da juce!
I would recommend that Jose move to Antarctica and sleep outdoors there, then he could extend his life by 200%– or not.
Ignorance is treatable,
Stupidity is terminal.
This idiot is not only stupid, he is illeterate. "Hole families"? Maybe that ball that hit him on the head………….maybe
Hey, I'm from the Buffalo, NY area (see BLIZZARD of '77) and it was between 70 and 80 last week, so I say, Hurray for global warming, what's the problem??
Global Warming Models Are Wrong Again
During a fundraiser in Atlanta earlier this month, President Obama is reported to have said: "It gets you a little nervous about what is happening to global temperatures. When it is 75 degrees in Chicago in the beginning of March, you start thinking. On the other hand, I really have enjoyed nice weather."
What is happening to global temperatures in reality? The answer is: almost nothing for more than 10 years. Monthly values of the global temperature anomaly of the lower atmosphere, compiled at the University of Alabama from NASA satellite data, can be found at the website here. The latest (February 2012) monthly global temperature anomaly for the lower atmosphere was minus 0.12 degrees Celsius, slightly less than the average since the satellite record of temperatures began in 1979.
The lack of any statistically significant warming for over a decade has made it more difficult for the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and its supporters to demonize the atmospheric gas CO2 which is released when fossil fuels are burned. The burning of fossil fuels has been one reason for an increase of CO2 levels in the atmosphere to around 395 ppm (or parts per million), up from preindustrial levels of about 280 ppm.
CO2 is not a pollutant. Life on earth flourished for hundreds of millions of years at much higher CO2 levels than we see today. Increasing CO2 levels will be a net benefit because cultivated plants grow better and are more resistant to drought at higher CO2 levels, and because warming and other supposedly harmful effects of CO2 have been greatly exaggerated.
This moron was just bounced out of the Mexican Baseball League.
This is a feat much harder than imagined.
The reason was although the MEX-BL allows a certain amount of HGH, Andro, Sterol or EPD (Enhancement Producing Drugs) to be used and in the ballplayers bodies, it was reported that his drug test was 11 times the allowable limit. Pretty much as long as you dont show up in spring training in Mexico with a syringe sticking in your forhead they let you play.
Not to be a repeater: MORON
Will he and gore travel on a privare leer or gulf-stream jet to their nexts big earthday events?
It is plain to see the envirocrats are milking this dimmie for all he is worth, but who is he anyway.
Who ever he is, he has a bright future in politics as long as he can remain as ignorent as he claims
The dastardly "hole" families killing polar bears again. for shame.
and… I guess he knows a thing or two about stopping "mass consumption", say, of steriods. Let's hear him out. Can't wait for the next tweets of wisdom from him.
Is this man really that stupid?
AGW is a yet another ruse to push turd world debt forgiveness. And a strategy to get even more western aid.
He does know that polar bear numbers have gone from 5 thousand to 25 thousand? Sounds like an infestation! These idiots are so stupid they don't even look up the facts before they make fools of themselves.
Steroids didn't hurt my IQ… but Canseco is still a tard.
Shouldn't George Apples be waking up right about now? He is the SME on GLOBULL warming.

At Vatican II, 50 years ago, Catholic leaders gathered to change their church and its world outlook
In a massive display of solemn ecclesiastical pomp, hundreds upon hundreds of elaborately robed leaders of the Catholic Church strode into St. Peter's Basilica in Rome a half-century ago Thursday. It signaled the start of a historic three-year assembly that would change the way members of the world's largest Christian denomination viewed themselves, their church and the rest of the world.
It was the first day of the Second Vatican Council, more popularly known as Vatican II, which was designed to assess the church's role in a rapidly changing world. Leading the prelates who had assembled beneath St. Peter's soaring dome was Pope John XXIII, who said frequently that he convened the council because he thought it was time to open the windows and let in some fresh air.
For many Catholics accustomed to a church in which their priests turned their backs on worshippers and uttered the Mass in Latin, a language that few parishioners understood, the air came in at gale force.
As a result of Vatican II, priests started celebrating Mass in the language of the countries in which they lived, and they faced the congregation, not only to be heard and seen but also to signal to worshippers that they were being included because they were a vital component of the service.
"It called for people not to have passive participation but active participation," New Orleans Archbishop Gregory Aymond said. "Prayer is not supposed to be a performance. We're supposed to be actively participating."
The changes took effect Nov. 29, 1964, the first Sunday of Advent. At St. James Major Catholic Church, the reformatted service came as a shock to many worshippers, said Aymond, who was an altar boy in the Gentilly church's first English-language Mass.
Because he had been an altar boy for years, young Gregory knew all the prayers in Latin. But, he said, that was no help. "I was lost," he said. "I had to keep looking at the book to find the prayers. I didn't know what was coming next. It was the first time I had heard the Scriptures proclaimed in English."
The changes didn't stop when Mass ended. As time went by, many nuns shucked their voluminous habits in favor of clothes similar to those worn by the people they served. And men and women in religious orders started taking on causes, even risking arrest, when they spoke out in favor of civil rights and workers' rights and against the war in Vietnam.
Such changes represented an about-face from the church's defensive approach to the world before Vatican II, said Christopher Baglow, a theology professor at Notre Dame Seminary.
"It wasn't that the church wasn't committed to human dignity before Vatican II," he said. "With Vatican II, the church began to look closely at the ways with which modern thinkers tended to promote human dignity and showed how they and the Gospels are complementary." [More]

Angelo, God does not need our sacrifices. What, in heaven's name, is your image of God?
Its obvious that Vatican Council ll is still being misinterpreted. When Bl. John XXlll called for the windows of the Church to be opened to let the fresh air in, he was talking about the fresh air of heaven. Many Catholics no longer had Faith, the Council was called for in order to revitalize that faith. The priest did not have his back to the people, priest and people faced the same direction in the worship of God. Pope Benedict XVl recently made it clear that the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is for God and not the people. The Holy Father has also said that active participation is meant to be done mainly in silence. Hopefuly the Year of Faith will bring the misunderstandings of the Council to an adrupt end.
The Eucharist should be celebrated AROUND the table of The Lord where priest and people are one.
Think of the words of the priest when he say, pray Sisters and brothers, that your Sacrifice AND mine maybe acceptable……

Where protests about Sharia, Jihad and Dhimmitude go unheard, concerns about parking and traffic may save the day. Good old England. Megamosque latest from the London Evening Standard:
Plans to build Britain's biggest place of worship — a "monolithic, overly dominant and incongruous" mosque in east London — are set to be thrown out despite 25,000 letters in favour.
The mosque, which could take 12,000 people — four times as many as St Paul's Cathedral — would be as big as Battersea power station and become the HQ of Islamic sect Tablighi Jamaat. However, officers for Newham council recommend the plan is refused.
The sect, to which the July 7 bombers and shoe bomber Richard Reid have been linked, could now be forced to leave the Abbey Mills site altogether in Canning Road, near the Olympic Park, after a 13-year battle.
Alan Craig, campaign director of MegaMosque No Thanks and a former Newham councillor, said: "Now it's up to the planning committee to follow the recommendation to reject. The building would be ugly, it would add nothing to the area and we have huge concerns about the group behind it."
Tablighi Jamaat first submitted plans to use the site, which has several prefab buildings, in 1999, arousing intense opposition from the start. In 2001, it agreed worship there would be on a temporary basis only, but when permission expired in 2006 the group continued to use the site.
In 2010, the council issued an enforcement notice but Tablighi Jamaat won its appeal last year and more than 5,000 people a week now worship at the site. The giant new mosque would have 40ft minarets, a visitors centre, a library and a 300-space car park.
The council's special strategic development committee meets next Wednesday to decide. The planning office received 3,000 letters opposing the scheme. Only one per cent of the 25,000 letters of support were from people living in the local consultation area.
Critics claim Tablighi Jamaat preaches "separation and segregation". The group maintains its main objective is peaceful missionary work.
The Anjuman-E-Islahul-Muslimeen of London UK Trust, Tablighi Jamaat's charitable trust and the site's owner, said it will appeal if the plan is thrown out. Newham council said: "Officers have made a recommendation for refusal, which will be considered.
"Our planning policies promote the development of the Abbey Mills site for a mix of residential, employment and community uses, to help create a new local centre near West Ham station and regenerate the area. It is not considered this application is consistent with these policies.
"There are also concerns about the size of the proposed buildings and impact on parking and traffic."
We knew Rita, Meter Maid was lovely, because the song told us so. But a counter-jihadist? Even if she does "look a little like a military man"? Mind you, there's some serious fitna going on towards the end of the song ...

Officials said heavy rain falling on the mountains surrounding Kalibo, the capital of Aklan province, caused a river running through the city to overflow and triggered a flash flood late Wednesday.
High astronomical tides also prevented the river from emptying into the sea.
Wukong arrived three weeks after Typhoon Bopha killed nearly 2,000 people in the south of the country.
Fresh memories of that disaster are credited for people taking warnings of Wukong seriously and for them evacuating low-lying areas prone to flooding.

Absolutely Brilliant In Chrome | ||||||
edited by Keith Olexa | ||||||
Phobos Books, 351 pages | ||||||
A review by Nathan Brazil
My acid test for short stories is that they should be either complete and satisfying in and of themselves, or leave me hoping
that the writer will expand the work to novel length. Seven out of the ten from Absolutely Brilliant In Chrome passed with flying colours. Seven
is also the number of authors, whose work is featured, if we count as one the name that is a nom de plume of the husband and
wife team. The only negative is that those included are all Phobos Award winners, and the editor makes it clear that the collection
is a marketing exercise. I would like to have seen authors restricted to one story each, and Phobos to show some faith in other
writers, thus breaking fresh talent. But, that's an editorial matter, and nothing that detracts from the quality of what is
presented. If you fancy something to read last thing at night, then the size of these stories are just about perfect. The variety
of style and theme is sufficient to ensure that, if you don't like one, the next in line may hit the spot.
If you find any errors, typos or anything else worth mentioning,
please send it to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Sore muscles might seem unavoidable after a hard-charging day on the slopes. And while a few après cocktails and a soak in the hot tub are timeless remedies, muscle pain after skiing isn't inevitable. With ingredients that rebuild and repair the damaged muscle tissue that causes pain, a new category of sports drinks has emerged to speed recovery time. Like energy drinks, recovery recipes include carbohydrates and electrolytes, but they also contain protein, a key ingredient for muscle repair.

Aussies Create PETA's Worst Nightmare: The 20-Animal Stuffed "Turducken Ridiculous"
Your Thanksgiving turkey is already lame and you haven't even roasted it or set your garage on fire trying to fry it yet. Australia has ruined the fattest of holidays for everyone and they don't even celebrate it! And here I thought we Americans were the only ones proudly shoving giant, gluttonous piles of meat into our jiggly faces.
According to the Huffington Post, Australian radio show Merrick and the Highway Patrol recently helped take the lame ol' Turducken to a level no human ever should, and all with the blessing of a Michelin-starred U.K. chef.
Chef Heston Blumenthal states:
I was thinking how do you stuff an Emu into a Wallaby, I thought it was going to be a real challenge, but it sounds fascinating! It sounds like you've gone for the most ambitious and ridiculous turducken... It sounds brilliant, the more ridiculous the better, any disbelievers will be converted!
The "Turducken Ridiculous" combines an astounding 20 animals into one massive boulder of heart-stopping meat. In a nightmarish, Saw movie type process involving shoving animals into other animals and more animals into other animals, the final product emerges like everything you never wanted to see come out of an oven. America needs to step it up.
What 20 animals did they use? Why yes, there's a picture for that too:
Start with the pigeon and work your way out.

Acer Iconia Tab A510 with Tegra 3 clears FCC
updated 01:50 pm EST, Thu February 16, 2012
Acer Iconia Tab A510 with Wi-Fi approved
Acer's mid-range Android 4.0 tablet, the Iconia Tab A510, has gotten considerably closer to a possible US launch after an FCC approval Wednesday. While the filing is focused on wireless and just confirms that it's a Wi-Fi only version, it shows the 10-inch slate getting close to a probable US release. European tips had put it in April.
The A510 sits exactly in between the budget A200 and the premium A710 we tried at CES in January. It carries the quad-core Tegra 3 processor of the A700 and should have the full camera set the A200 lacks, but it trims the price by using a more conventional 1280x800 display instead of the more exotic 1080p of the A700. At least one model will have 16GB of storage.
It may be Acer's first device to ship with Android 4.0 built-in and includes a lightly customized interface with shortcuts to common tasks. [via Unwired View]
