An End to the Shouting
The Mekons Get a Movie
Currently Ian Karmel is trending in Memphis. How did such a thing occur? The answer lies in Ian's "Everything as Fuck" column this week in which he ladled on a heaping helping of hilarious shit-talk on the Memphis Grizzlies. READ IT HERE. Then Ian tweeted this:
As it turns out, people in Memphis have Twitter, too! And they used theirs to say things like this:
At least one person hoped that Ian would "die slowly."
Then it gets a bit confusing... because some of the tweets are protected... but someone threatened Ian with a gun.
Which led to....
Should people be called out for dumbshit things they say on Twitter? YES, THEY SHOULD. Do YOU need to call them out after they've been called out by a million other people? NO, YOU DO NOT. At that point, you're dog-piling... and nobody respects anyone on top of the dog-pile.
And with that, here's Jon Stewart asking you to give incoming Daily Show host Trevor Noah a chance to earn your respect... or not! (If you want to dog-pile Jon Stewart with love, I guess that's okay.)
In case you missed it, yesterday we posted this on our Twitter account:
This did not sit well with Baptist preacher and new Oregon resident Tom Estes, who tweeted us back the following:
OH NO HE JUST DID NOT. But don't worry folks, Portland #1 Fan and Ambassador Ian Karmel quickly and decisively jumped to our defense.
Just another in a long list of reasons why our beloved Ian Karmel IS... THE... BEST.
Yay! It's another installment of Jimmy Kimmel's "Mean Tweets" in which celebrities (like Gwyneth Paltrow, Britney Spears, Lena Dunham, and more) read the meanest, stupidest—though sometimes cleverest—tweets about them. Pay strict attention to Chloë Moretz—she delivers one of the sickest reverse burns I've heard in quite a while!
I've been a fan of Twitter for five years now, and a vocal Twitter advocate. But over the last year, I've become less and less enchanted with Twitter, to the point where I've thought about quitting the service multiple times. My complaint has nothing to do with advertising in the timeline—they've gotta make money somehow—but with the normalization of Twitter discussion. It's become a boring stew of self-promotion, self-righteous finger-wagging over the latest media event, pointless arguments that never change minds, and inane chatter about television shows. I roll my eyes at Twitter a lot these days.
Part of the reason I've not quit Twitter yet is that I still believe in the simplicity of the service: Short bulletins, arranged in strict chronological order, amounting to a real-time view of how thousands of people see and understand the world. I've harbored the suspicion that if I unfollowed a number of people who I now follow—especially the media types, who are the most infuriating—I could remake my timeline into something worth my attention again. There must still be people out there in the world who are intelligently toying with the formal constraints of Twitter, who have something interesting to say, who don't want to bludgeon the world to death with their boring opinions?
Today, though, it occurs to me that maybe it's time to quit Twitter once and for all. Twitter can't stop talking about Twitter—specifically, they're discussing this Wall Street Journal overview of a presentation by Twitter CFO Anthony Noto:
Twitter's timeline is organized in reverse chronological order, a delivery system that has not changed since the product was created eight years ago and one that some early adopters consider sacred to the core Twitter experience. But this "isn't the most relevant experience for a user," Noto said. Timely tweets can get buried at the bottom of the feed if the user doesn't have the app open, for example. "Putting that content in front of the person at that moment in time is a way to organize that content better."
Noto does clarify that chronological order isn't going completely away: "Individual users are not going to wake up one day and find their timeline completely ranked by an algorithm." But that's not enough of a promise for me. If Twitter fucks with the chronological order of the service, I will be done with Twitter. If I couldn't trust Twitter to provide me with real-time updates of protests in Ferguson, or the Occupy protests, or the Boston Marathon bombing, I would have no use for Twitter. I can find some other way to hang out with friends. I already belong to one social network that whitewashes the news and churns out a repetitive slurry of feel-good posts; I don't need another one.
Michelangelo Signorile wants you to show your support for football player Michael Sam—and your contempt for the people who are still freaking out about Sam kissing his boyfriend—by changing your profile pics on Facebook and Twitter:
"Gay people need to be kissing more in public. There simply needs to be more queer smooching to desensitize the world. So with that, I hereby launch the Great Facebook Kiss-In, urging everyone—whether gay, straight or bi—to change their profile pics to two women kissing or two men kissing. Maybe it's you and your husband or wife, or your partner or sweetheart, or you and a friend. Maybe it's your dad and your dad, or your mom and your mom. Maybe it's two other people you just like a lot or you think are hot. Just change your profile pic to a kissing same-sex couple, and urge others to do the same. And for that matter let's do it on Twitter, too. One day in the future we will look back on all this ridiculousness and laugh. But that's only going to happen if we do exactly this kind of thing a lot. So change those profile photos now."
Twitter users: You know how sometimes you follow friends and they go on long rants about TV shows that nobody should ever care about? And you know how you don't want to unfollow them because it feels too rude? Today is a very happy day for you: Twitter is enabling a mute function, so you'll be able to feel like a polite friend without clogging up your timeline with useless information.
Muting a user on Twitter means their Tweets and Retweets will no longer be visible in your home timeline, and you will no longer receive push or SMS notifications from that user. The muted user will still be able to fave, reply to, and retweet your Tweets; you just won't see any of that activity in your timeline. The muted user will not know that you've muted them, and of course you can unmute at any time.
I can think of a few folks I'll have to mute during baseball season. Speaking of muting assholes on Twitter, I just started a Twitter list of potential 2016 presidential candidates and other prominent political types. You're welcome.
Non-Twitter users: God, Twitter is so stupid, isn't it? Who cares what you ate for lunch? It's all like, whatever happened to human interaction in real life? Doesn't anybody remember what eye contact was like? Why, just the other day, I looked around on the bus and everybody was Twittering on their phones and nobody was talking! It's outrageous, is what it is. Simply outrageous.
Yesterday, Twitter made some changes to its service. Ashley Feinberg wrote about them for Gizmodo:
Not only can a single tweet now hold multiple photos (each with up to 10 tagged friends), but none of that extra baggage takes away any of your precious characters.
I'm not crazy about Twitter's newfound love of photographs. I love Twitter for its words, its one-liners and brief observations that can change the way we look about a breaking story. But most of all, I love Twitter for its constraints. As I've been saying for years, Twitter was something akin to a new literary form in the way it constrained its writers, haiku-like, to 140-character chunks of text. And if you wanted to include a photograph with your text, you'd lose twenty characters of that 140. If you wanted to include a link and a photograph, as a lot of news organizations do in their tweets right now, you're down to 100 characters. So how do you relay important information, remain readable, and squeeze your voice into 100 characters? That's the challenge of Twitter, and it's made me a better editor over the years. My refusal to use text-speak—I'll occasionally put in an "&" in place of an "and," if I'm desperate—means that I have had to strip my thoughts down to their barest, most clear states.
But now that 20-character penalty is gone for photographs, and you don't have to use up any characters to tag another person in the photos, either. The constraints are slowly fading away. It's a relaxation of the rules of the game that makes the whole thing less fun to me. I'm not swearing off Twitter or declaring Twitter to be dead or anything like that, but I do forsee a change in the way people use the service. It's very likely going to become something like a real-time photo-sharing service, where the words take a back seat to the image. That's already happened with blogs, and with Facebook, and with pretty much every site that I've ever enjoyed. Words coax and argue and inspire. Images grab your attention. Images lead pageviews. Images sell shit. In this economy, images are always going to win.
There are still ways to counter these changes, of course. I can and will happily unfollow anyone who posts more photos than texts. I can shape my Twitter stream into whatever I like. But I can also see a point where, if Twitter is incautious, these changes completely sap the fun and creativity out of the service. I sincerely hope that doesn't happen.
Someone in the office just looked up their first tweet and said that. You can look up your first tweet here. Everyone rolls their eyes when an internet thing like this comes along, and then we all turn toward our computers and do what we just rolled our eyes about doing. My first tweet was apparently a Flannery O'Conner joke. #embarrassing #typical #figures

Jimmy Kimmel's "Celebrity Mean Tweets" segments are not only consistently hilarious, they play a valuable public service: Hopefully mean tweeters will watch this and say, "Hey, I really hurt that celebrity's feelings... and I got on TV. LET'S DO IT AGAIN!!"
Benjamin Kunkle at n+1 has issued a manifesto:
1. Social media should be socialized because services tend to be or become monopolies. Most private enterprises, whatever their business, have at least a few competitors. Large social media companies—Facebook, Twitter—tend to lack competitors, for the simple reason that their platforms are not compatible. I can't create a profile on a non-Facebook site that then appears on Facebook, and no microblogging service could emerge to challenge Twitter unless it were capable of inducing mass defections. Social media services or social utilities, as they would better be called, are thus more like highways or railroads than like car manufacturers or freight companies.
Also: "Social media should be socialized because its content is produced by society at large, and society is distinct from the economy." Or, as a Tweet that recently came my way put it: "We're all unpaid interns working for Twitter in exchange for exposure." Read the whole thing.
Fox News has been having a rough time of it lately—for allegedly creating false Twitter accounts to bolster their image, and for... you know... lying all the time. Luckily for them Stephen Colbert is there to help them out by setting up a brand new Twitter account called @RealHumanPraise, which substitutes Fox News anchors into lines from positive movie reviews... every two minutes! Watch his explanation here, and check out the small hilarious sampling below!

Yesterday I alerted you to the hilariously tone deaf tweet by Philly's FOX 29 reporter Joyce Evans, who compared a local drive-by shooting/murder to an episode of Breaking Bad in order to lure in viewers. Though she's furiously backpedaling at the moment, and I suggested she should have her Twitter feed taken away forever, a quick look at her other tweets shows that this is a reporter WHO REALLY KNOWS WHAT SHE'S DOING on social media! Don't stop, Joyce!

Twitter, which has apparently been much better about saying no to the NSA than the other tech giants, says that more and more governments want to get a hold of your private information:
The company's latest transparency report, now a biannual affair, shows a steady increase in information requests from governments around the world, including those for user account information, which Twitter said typically are made in connection with criminal investigations or cases. For the first six months of 2013, Twitter received 1,157 requests, up from 1,009 in the second half of 2012 and 849 in the first half of 2012.
Whenever I write about Twitter and privacy, people tend to respond with something like, "isn't Twitter for narcissistic over-sharers anyway?" And, you know, sure, kinda. Partially. But governments aren't interested in your public posts about what you ate for lunch. They're interested in the identities behind anonymous Twitter accounts. They're interested in Twitter's private messaging system, which has become a preferred way for protesters to keep in touch when they're planning and undertaking actions. There's a lot of very damaging private information on the site, even though it has a reputation as being too public.
After his Twitter blow-up last week in which he called Daily Mail reporter George Stark a "queen" and insinuated he liked anal sex (in my family, that's a compliment), Alec Baldwin has vowed to quit Twitter FOREVER. Here's what he told Vanity Fair when asked if he would return to the social media platform:
Never. No. I went to Jimmy Gandolfini's funeral, and when I was there I realized Jimmy Gandolfini didn't have Twitter. Jimmy Gandolfini was so beloved as a person, and he was so admired as an actor, and he didn't give a fuck about social media.
I really learned a lesson at the funeral. I said to myself, This is all a waste of time. Meaning it's fun sometimes, but less and less, and less. It's just another chink in your armor for people to come and kill you.
A poll, if you will.
BTW, don't miss my monologue in this Friday and Saturday's LONE WOLVES: Solo Sketch Comedy Show entitled "Taylor Swift: Music Superstar." It's got puppets.
Jose Canseco, who has been accused by both of his ex-wives of domestic violence in the past, was approached by police officers in Las Vegas as part of a rape investigation, according to Canseco's Twitter feed. How did Canseco respond? By tweeting the name of the woman Canseco says has accused him of rape, along with what he claimed to be a photo of her and her phone number. The tweets—there were two clusters of them—have since been deleted, but BuzzFeed has screen captures of them (with the name and personal information redacted).
Now, people are calling for Canseco to be kicked off of Twitter for posting the personal information of a woman whom he believes has accused him of rape. I used to follow Canseco on Twitter because he was kind of funny, but his propensity to angrily publish the personal information of whatever woman he's obsessing over—and he's done this on multiple occasions—was way too creepy for my tastes.
Whether this is an actual Twitter catfight or a fakey promotional stunt, few people do passive-aggressive MEOW PFFSST! PFFSST! tweet wars like the one Michael Ian Black and Marc Maron are currently engaged in. Here's just a sample. A SAMPLE!
Meeee-OW!! Read the entire war here.

Scotland, SNP, Independence
Alex Salmond, former First Minister of Scotland, tells the New Statesman that the SNP will not let David Cameron return to power.
An adoring crowd hung on the former First Minister's words at a book signing last night.
Can the SNP win more than 50 seats in May? We run through every seat in Scotland.
The SNP lead are set to win more than 50 of Scotland's 59 seats, including Charles Kennedy's and possibly even Jim Murphy's.
More than 500 pundits, mostly academics, have offered their election predictions. Their forecasts don't quite add up.
The SNP's Westminster leader on a second referendum, how many seats his party will win and a Labour-SNP coalition.
As Cameron left Edinburgh, the SNP choir could be forgiven singing the famous Scottish ballad.
"Of course Scotland could govern itself. So could England. But we do it so much better together."
A full war chest and a charismatic leader doesn't guarantee referendum success.

I also liked how they just threw in such weird random shit, like the clown coming out of the cake and holding the "PISS" sign. It's just so wacked out and weird that you would have to be a corpse not to laugh at it.
You are crazy man! I don't really... I don't even know what to say about such a weird flash. It was cool though. Keep up the good work.
This is the funniest shit ever! It just keeps getting better each time I watch it. "Fat clowns aren't even very funny if you ask me." Man, that is some good stuff.

New Times Call for New Thinking; Dallas, Texas Is Site of 98th Annual NACM Credit Congress, May 18-21, 1994
Great sessions, weather, and location conspired to make the 98th Annual NACM Credit Congress in Dallas, Texas, May 18-21, 1994, one of the most energizing and thought-provoking ever.
NACM President Paul J. Mignini Jr., CAE led the call "for new thinking" in his opening remarks as he reflected on the two major business trends affecting the credit profession: "globalization" and "restructuring."
As business has become increasingly globalized, Mignini said, so NACM has sought to bolster its international presence and educational offerings, particularly in Mexico, Canada, Australia, Britain, and Japan.
"You should be proud to know that as an NACM member, you belong to the largest credit and financial management association in the world," he said.
Just as the credit profession must be better equipped to compete internationally, so restructuring is changing the role of credit and financial management itself within corporations.
"Credit managers must become major players in corporate planning, learning to wear more hats, particularly in treasury, information management, and strategic planning," he said. "A corporate management position is emerging that embraces much of the credit function, but not necessarily all, and possibly configures its many facets in different ways."
Author and lecturer, Robert J. Kriegel reenforced the overall convention theme as he urged attendees to use "out-of-box" thinking and "go on sacred cow hunts." As the profession changes, those who wish to remain on the cutting edge have to "lead the change rather than merely keep up with it," he contended. As a former sports psychologist, he was able to draw some apt analogies about passion, courage, and the ability to take new risks in business.
"Passion is what differentiates the average from the outstanding," he said. "As a leader, you must pass your fire on to other people."
Exams, Certificate Sessions, Industry Day, Awards, and More ...
With this is mind, it was on to four days of education, recognition, achievement, and committee service as attendees reviewed for exams, completed certificates, and attended sessions on an array of subjects, ranging from international market differences that influence market conditions to bankruptcy basics.
Special certification areas included: business communications, case studies in credit management, financial statement analysis, and principles of commercial credit and collections. The vast majority of remaining sessions carried continuing education and/or recertification points. A tiny fraction of the offerings are presented here.
Quantifying A/Rs' Impact on Cash Flow
Because the collection of accounts receivable by credit represents 98 percent of all cash flow generated by most firms, management of this asset is key to being a viable, competitive, and successful operation.
Basil P. Mavrovitis, CCM, CCE, vice president and treasurer, Bertelsmann, Inc. New York, N.Y., provided insight and an array of techniques for managing, analyzing, strategizing, and reporting on working capital management. Mavrovitis' approach zeros in on working capital management methods, using DSO to manage and analyze working capital performance, and measuring and enhancing performance to favorably affect liquidity, cash flow, the balance sheet, and the P&L statement.
In the first area, Mavrovitis seeks to cut collection delays or errors and thereby increase liquidity through optimizing the lockbox process; to identify and correct delays or lags in the shipping and invoicing process; to aggressively police unearned discounts; and calculate, track, and minimize the lost opportunity costs of extended terms.
In lockbox management, for example, "while treasury might improve cashflow through the use of lock boxes by two or three days, as credit managers you have the ability to improve cash flow by weeks," he said.
Each technique should require articulation of a formalized policy and procedure, Mavrovitis asserted, and communication with all levels of credit, treasury, and marketing concerning the underlying philosophy and effects on the firm's working capital. …

This paper presents the fixed and floating-point implementations for field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) of third-order hand tremor predictors using recursive-least square (RLS) and a proposed Kalman adaptation algorithm. The proposed algorithm outperforms RLS in convergence speed and mean square error (MSE). It also shows better numerical convergence than the RLS as the number of bits in fixed-point precision is reduced. Both fixed and floating-point realizations are implemented and the hardware tradeoffs are discussed. A modified binary floating-point format is proposed that takes advantage of the 18-bit hard macro multiplier within the Virtex 5 Architecture in order to gain precision while preserving clock speed. The increased precision overcomes the prior known issues of explosive divergence and the stalling effect associated with the fixed-point implementation of such adaptive algorithms, proving the feasibility of an FPGA based physiological hand tremor predictor. In order to demonstrate the tradeoff between the performance and the hardware complexity, we quantify the penalty paid by the system in terms of MSE due to the use of lower precision arithmetic.

This originally ran in MRR #318/Nov '09, which you can grab here
I've been buying punk records for 25 years. I've heard a lot of good shit. There's only a couple of bands that are so good that they stand head and shoulders above anything thtas come before. The Hex Dispensers are one of them. Their new LP has been on my turntable almost every day since it came out. I wouldn't be lying if I told you I've listened to a hundred times. The band defy genre…. They have the hooks of the Ramones, darkness of the Wipers with some fucking Danzig/Elvis shit going on. They are the sum of four parts; Alyse's super tight tribal drumming, Tom's guitar backbone, Dave's rolling basslines and slick stage moves topped off with Alex's crazy blues slides and unique vocals. I'm not even going to go into the 'ex bands' bullshit…. They have of course done a ton of good shit previous – how else would they be this good? On top of being a great band they are real fucking people. Along with the Marked Men this band would play my wedding or my funeral.
Interview by Logan Worrell
MRR: What do each of you do in the band?
Tom: I play guitar.
Dave: Bass.
Alex: I sing and play guitar.
Alyse: Drums.
Alex: Dave sings too, sometimes.
Alyse: I sing backup
Alex: Alyse sings also.
Dave: Badly.
MRR: Why'd you guys decide to start a band with each other?
Tom: We were already in a band together and it seemed like a great idea at that point.
Alex: Alyse, Tom, and I were in a band called This Damn Town, and it was winding down. We decided that we weren't going to do it anymore because we just hit a wall with it, but we decided that we wanted to keep playing together.
Alyse: Because it worked great
Alex: Yeah, because we have a good rapport. I mean Alyse and I better have a good rapport, we're married. But we like Tom, kind of, and we thought we wanted to keep playing with him. So we started another band to see how it would go and we liked where it was going,
Dave: You just wanted Tom's brisket to be within arms reach.
Alex: Basically, yeah.
Tom: Brisket is going to come up in every interview.
Dave: That's kind of a huge part.

text: on Apr 4, 2013 @ 4:00 PMApr 4, 2013 @ 4:00 PM Published C.Africa strongman agrees to faster polls under new leader (RECIT)The Central African Republic's rebel strongman on Thursday agreed to a regional plan to hold elections within 18 months and appoint another interim leader, the prime minister said.Michael Djotodia, who proclaimed himself president after seizing Bangui in a bloody coup last month, had planned a three-year transition to democratic rule.However regional leaders rejected his presidency at a meeting of the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS) on Wednesday, after his Seleka rebel coalition ousted Francois Bozize.The leaders of the six-nation bloc called for a freshly elected council to take charge of a political transition and to elect an interim president for no more than 18 months."I have discussed (the issue) with the head of state (Djotodia), who has given his agreement that (the ECCAS) solution be chosen," Prime Minister Nicolas Tiangaye, who attended the summit in N'Djamena, said Thursday."This is an agreement that will enable the CAR to come out of isolation, which will enable us to avoid being shunned by the international community. I see no reason why the Seleka should oppose it," he added. Djotodia on Thursday morning met a delegation of foreign ministers from the ECCAS as well as representatives of the African Union and of the International Francophone Organisation.After the talks, Seleka spokesman and Communications Minister Christophe Gazam Betty confirmed that Djotodia "has accepted all the recommendations made in N'Djamena. He agreed to all the plans that were drawn up by heads of state... without wasting time."The new council, to be elected by leading political and social forces in the poor, landlocked country, should take charge of the transition and play an executive role during it, according to the plans made in Chad.After the summit, Chadian President Idriss Deby told journalists that this interim body must vote for a transitional president who would serve for not more than 18 months.Djotodia, a former civil servant and diplomat who turned rebel in 2005, grabbed power after a rapid assault on the capital Bangui on the grounds that the regime had failed to abide by a January peace deal.He kept opposition figure Tiangaye in office as head of the government, in line with the accords signed with Bozize in Gabon's capital Libreville.Deposed Bozize has accused onetime ally Chad -- which hosted the regional summit -- of helping the rebels to oust him, an allegation strongly rejected by N'Djamena on Thursday."The former president has engaged in a series of very serious accusations which the Chadian government categorically denies," the government said in a statement.The coup also prompted a scandal in Pretoria after 13 South African soldiers were killed in the fighting, and forced President Jacob Zuma to announce Thursday the withdrawal of a contingent of over 200 troops.Benin said Thursday it was willing to grant asylum to the ousted Bozize, who fled to Cameroon after the coup. In Bangui, the proposals made in N'Djamena were well-received.A former aide to Bozize's regime, asking not to be named, told AFP they were "a good thing, good news.""Seleka has won and we can't make it disappear just like that... To shorten the period for the transition is also a good thing. If we see that it isn't feasible, we can extend it."Meanwhile, Central African Health Minister Aguide Soumouck said health services in the capital -- where hospitals were overflowing with injured people in the days after the coup -- were improving but there remained an "enormous" need for medicine.pgf-cl/mfp/fb

After a brief introduction, Mitch and Panther get to know each other a whole lot better. The black Panther lays back and purrs as Mitch takes the lead and makes love to him starting with a deep kiss then an exploration of his tight nipples and rippled abdomen. Panther nips at his bulging prick through his camo pants before unzipping them and gulping the raw meat down. The guys get in position to sixty nine, racing each other to finish line as they moan and slurp each other's hot rods. Panther takes Mitch's polished pole up his ass riding it like a pogo stick. Mutual Masturbation to climax seals the deal.

so alive... asustado...
LOL that's brilliant, the architect must have been the great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather of the guy who designed the North American standard electric socket Thank you so much Eve, I might have half a mind eventually to juxtapose the socket somewhere in there just for fun
LOL - Please help yourself Nick So made me think of you when I saw this castle - it has 3 towers like this
Thanks Eve Touched it up a bit and would like to submit eventually on freestock - in your name of course because of the minor adjustments - and call it Fort Shock. Made an alternate with the electric socket off to the right wall and naturally call that one Fort Double Shock That'd be later though, have a physical examination this morning!
Ha ha a castle with a face looks like spongebob
Awesome, thx Eve. <3
I wonder what happened in the distance that made this tower so surprised, cool "haircut" as well.
Fun fun nice photograph, thanks for sharing!

The Lederman Law Library will be condensed from three floors to two. The lower level of the library space will be designated for the Faculty of Law for additional study space and group meeting rooms. The law journals have been assessed and those that have limited use will be stored at Stauffer Library, and those that are low demand will be stored off site. Users may also continue to access both categories of journals through the interlibrary loan system. This move of the journals began during reading week and was completed in May, with renovations beginning in early July.

Guest Blog Post for Campus Master Plan (CMP)
This month's Campus Master Plan blog post comes courtesy of Martha Whitehead, Queen's University Librarian and Chair of the Library and Archives Master Plan (LAMP) Steering Group. The CMP project team has been working closely with Martha and the LAMP Consultant Team to ensure both planning efforts complement and inform one another. In her post, Martha writes about the importance and changing face of libraries, their central role in the Queen's campus experience, and some of the key directions of the forthcoming Library & Archives Master Plan.

Queen's has embarked on a major redevelopment: imagining the Queen's Library and Archives of the future.
The LAMP Steering Group is collaborating with a core team of internationally respected expert consultants in a rigorous and imaginative planning exercise to develop Queen's Library and Archives Master Plan. CS&P Architects are specialists in education, Reich + Petch Architects are collection specialists and Aaron Cohen Associates, library specialists. This core team will be supported by a group of subconsultants in key disciplines including costing, engineering, heritage, audiovisual and information technology. The LAMP Steering Group is working with the lead planning partner CS&P Architects to develop a clear understanding of space needs and opportunities in both the Library and the Archives. The Master Plan Report will guide future planning and identify priorities for future investments.
Queen's Library and the Archives invite all stakeholders of the Queen's community to attend the upcoming project overview presentation on Thursday, November 29th, 9:00 – 9:45 am, Robert Sutherland Hall Rm. 202. This presentation will kick off two days of intensive consultation with all Queen's stakeholders. CS&P, will facilitate discussion sessions with staff groups relating to each library, the Archives, collections, information technology and academic services (reference/information, teaching, research services). Other group sessions include QLC partners, faculty, undergraduates, graduate students and university operations (campus planning, security, etc).
Queen's encourages you to engage in the re-visioning of Queen's Library & Archives campus network. Imagine your Queen's Library & Archives of the future and help us build it.
Consider these questions:
- Question 1: Library & Archives Master Plan of the Future
- Question 2: Existing Facilities: Queen's Library & Archives Strengths & Weaknesses
Please share your ideas in person or online with our planning partners.
Welcome to the Library and Archives Master Plan. This project launched in May 2012 and this site will provide information and updates along the way.
The first step of the process is a Request for Proposals for a planning partner. This work is happening over the summer of 2012, with the expectation that a partner will be selected and ready to go by October 2012. The planning partner will then work with the steering group to engage Queen's students, faculty, staff, alumni, administrators and the local community in considering the future of academic research libraries and archives and in providing ideas for the services and amenities to be provided in the physical facilities of the Library and the Archives.
When completed, the Library and Archives Master Plan will provide high-level options and recommendations for the development of the Library's and Archives' facilities. Each option proposed will be accompanied with cost estimates and a weighted list of constraints and opportunities. The Library and Archives Master Plan will be presented in a concise, updatable format, both on the web and in print, which will aid with future redevelopment efforts and possible donor solicitation.
The LAMP Steering Group welcomes your questions and comments!

28 year old man | Saint Louis, MO, USA | Seeking women 23-30 within 50 miles
White boy swag
I'm just seeing who's out there. I wouldn't say I am "looking" for someone. I just figure with work and being new to St. Louis (kind of...I grew up in St. Peters) I'd like to make myself available if the right person were to come along. I have decided that meeting women in a bar is not all that great of an idea. I don't exactly get out to bars as much as I did in college these days anyway. I workout 4-5 days a week and attempt to eat healthy most of the time but weekends I cheat a bit. I like all sports and was a swimmer and try to go as often as I can. Now I just play sports for fun and try not to get hurt in my old age. I like to go to Cardinal, Blues, and Rams games when I can. But I am also happy to go to museums, the zoo, or a park. One of my favorite places to be is under a sky full of stars on the beach, or in the mountains.

Nice apartment in a great location. It is very easy to get around the city. We found we used the bus a lot. They aware regular and only a short ride to Norreport station.
We didn't meet Johanna and Lasse, but they conveniently left the keys at a near by coffee shop. Which worked well.
The apartment was very clean and tidy with everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
Thank you!
This was a lovely flat on the fourth floor. Clean, tidy, lots of interesting books and a nice place to explore Copenhagen from. We really enjoyed the local Lalibela Ethiopian restaurant and coffee shops. Thank you Lasse and Johanna for sharing your apartment!
It was a great experience! If we could we would stay in Johanna and Lasse House! We miss the city already! All was clean and nice. Warm and the water too even in winter. Near of all in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood. We already want to come back! Thank you for the nice welcoming.
Johanna og Lasse er, som værter, ekstremt venlige, nemme og fleksible, og vi følte os meget hjemme i deres lejlighed. Alt foregik uden problemer, hvilket gjorde vores ophold virkelig trygt og behageligt. Lejligheden er placeret i nærheden at alt det, man kunne ønske sig (indkøb, gode caféer/barer, posthus, offentlig transport etc.), parkering er altid til at finde (og så er det gratis), gaden er rolig, og området er fuldt af liv.
Johanna og Lasses lejlighed er perfekt, hvis man leder efter et hyggeligt, rent og hjemmeligt sted at bo. Vi boede i lejligheden i 4 dage, men vi ville ønske, at vi kunne have blevet meget længere. :) Vi giver vores varmeste anbefalinger - og vi kunne bestemt finde på at booke den igen, næste gang vi mangler et sted at bo i København.
Wonderful flat and great host !!
Me and my partner stayed at Johanna & Lasse's lovely flat over New Year. Being on the 5th floor meant we had an incredible view of all the many Copenhagen fireworks!
The flat was in a great location. We walked a lot during our holiday and found that it was a perfect base to get to loads of awesome parts of Copenhagen. It also charmingly decorated and very comfortable - especially the squishy sofa, perfect for snuggles - and we felt very welcome there. We played one of the provided board games and found that a lovely additional touch.
When we arrived, a fuse had blown and it meant there was no electricity. This can happen at any time but is especially devastating after flight delays and a long journey! However, Johanna & Lasse sorted it out very quickly and we had electricity back on within an hour. We were so grateful for such incredible service.
One small note: this flat is on the 5th floor up a LOT of stairs (almost 70!) so that is worth noting that if your mobility is limited.
We have nothing but praise and grateful thanks for letting us stay and cannot recommend this cute and cozy flat strongly enough. Perfect for the hygge life!
Excellent apartment in a friendly and laid-back area of Copenhagen. Hosts were welcoming and friendly. Felt like a real 'home from home' with everything needed for a shirt stay (or even a longer one). Highly recommended.
About the Host, Johanna & Lasse
We are a Danish-Swedish couple in our twenties, who loves travelling. We look forward to meeting you, and if we're in town, we will be happy to show you around a bit and tell you about our lovely neighbourhood.
However, we share our time between Copenhagen, Stockholm and rest of the world, and will usually make our flat available for travellers from all over, when we are ourselves out of town.
Johanna is a Stockholm-born entrepreneur working in the field of chess and children — and a graduate of the Kaospilot school of leadership and social entrepreneurship.
Lasse is born and raised in Copenhagen and works as a journalist, covering Danish politics. Lasse enjoys Good food, wine and travelling and among his most recent trips are San Francisco, New Orleans and Cadiz.
We hope to see you soon and make you feel like home!
