The Government of the Gambia under the leadership of His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Yahya AJJ Jammeh has connected the Gambia to the world of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). This is in line with his vision to provide the requisite infrastructure and create the enabling environment to ensure that ICT services are within the reach of each and every Gambian at anytime, anywhere and at affordable prices.
Under President Jammeh's government, ICT plays a crucial role in all sectors of the country's economy, boosting agricultural productivity and in providing the health sector with the necessary ICT infrastructure to improve delivery of services. In the same vein, the Ministry of Information Communication and Infrastructure (MOICI) is exploring ways and means of integrating the ICT needs of disadvantaged groups in society, while facilitating the development of ICT to support education delivery.
Recognizing the driving role that ICT plays in bringing about sustained economic growth and expansion of trade, MOICI is working in partnership with the private sector and donors within a liberalized and competitive market, one that offers consumer choice.
The Government of President Jammeh has brought lots of development in the ICT sector and from 1994 to date several ICT projects have been realized. Twenty years now, Gambians have witnessed the proliferation of not only radio stations and print media houses, but also the advent of the National Television (The Gambia Radio and Television Services) and GSM mobile operators, among a host of other projects. The Gambia's Internet Initiative Experience
In its quest to develop easy and cost effective information access, the United Nations Development Programme in 1997 launched the Internet Initiative for Africa (IIA), a three year regional project which aims among other things, to establish and enhance internet services and build capacity in Sub-Saharan African countries as a means of strengthening their economies and social development reforms. The Gambia became one of the first countries under the leadership of President Jammeh to join the bandwagon of the information superhighway under IIA, with the Gambia Telecommunications Company Limited (Gamtel), at the time,providing 50% of the US$1M needed for its implementation, on behalf of the government.
The Gambia's Internet Initiative became a reality in September 1998 with the launching of an Internet backbone and gateway. At the time, the Gambia boasts of a backbone covering the entire country on a 2 Megabytes per second platform, with nodes in 12 major cities and 512 kilobytes per second direct access to the rest of the world via Teleglobe, Canada. With Gamtel taking the leading role, it started the provision of Internet Services to the entire nation in October 1998. And Quantum Net became the first private company to offer Internet services in November 1998 with a high-speed connection to Internet backbone. Medical Research Council (MRC) follow suit by establishing a high-speed access in November 1998 and currently operates as a commercial Internet Service Provider (ISP). Prior to implementing IIA project in the Gambia in 1998, Gamtel was providing Internet Services via a low-speed X.25 access to CompuServe Online and Delphi in UK. Not only was this system slow and unreliable, it could only support 10 concurrent users of the total user base of 250 at the time. Barely a year after the launching of Internet services in 1998, by the president, His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr Yahya Jammeh, the user base grew up to over 1200 dial-up users. The Internet user base growth rate was expected to remain the same for the next year or two before gradually reaching market saturation. 14 years after, on December 19, 2012 up to 500 international policy-makers, regulators, operators and service providers from across the world converged in Banjul for the historical launching of the Africa Coast to Europe Submarine Cable (ACE). The ACE Consortium, which is led by France Telecom-Orange, is made up of 16 members from Africa and Europe. The ACE project has a design capacity of 5.12 Tbps and is supported by the new 40 Gbps wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. This makes it possible to increase the capacity as required and adapt to the latest technological improvements by upgrading station equipment without any submarine cable modifications. The system also facilitates connectivity with terrestrial fibre optics cable.
The US$700 million cable project will ultimately extend over 17, 000 kilometers from Brittany in France to Cape Town in South Africa at depths close to 6,000 meters below sea level, linking Europe to Africa with high-capacity broadband connectivity. When we look at what has transpired from 1998 to date in the Gambia under President Jammeh, we have to give ourselves a pat on the back for the commendable achievements and growth in the country, with government spearheading accessibility to Internet resources as a tool for national development. It has been a tough road, sometimes frustrating but results have been achieved and will definitely be much higher this time around. In the past decade, the world has evolved rapidly into an increasingly information and technology driven society. Timely access to information is hence essential in keeping up with technology and improving the way we live and do business in the developing world. September 1998 marked an important turning point in the history of the advancement of information technology in the Gambia. In the Gambia today, under the APRC government there are a number of Internet Service Providers (ISP) licenses issued by the Ministry of Information and Communication Infrastructure. This has improved access to Internet and its related services. Internet cafes are booming and providing limited and affordable access to the internet in rural areas, hence the need for multi-purpose ICT centers.
In 2010, the Ministry of Information and Communication Infrastructure (MOICI) launched its four-year strategic plan, a new framework designed to further advance its ongoing commitment to provide The Gambia with advanced telecoms infrastructure. This process was given a further boost later on with the launched of the government's overarching Programme for Accelerated Growth and Employment (PAGE).
The Ministry encourages and promotes the use of ICT in all spheres of government service delivery processes to facilitate and sustain efficiency. For example, MOICI is responsible for implementing an e-government strategy. A wide-ranging e-government project proposal has been developed to give special consideration to the rural communities.
The Ministry is the executing agency of the UNDP-backed e-government Web Portal, a gateway to government information linking all government ministries, which became fully operational in 2011. At the same time, an e-government data center for the provision of email and web services has also been completed.
The Telecommunications Act of 2009 has strengthened an enabling regulatory environment of the telecommunication sector that has witnessed the establishment of four GSM mobile operators, one fixed network operator and more than six Internet Service Providers (ISP). In August 2008, a 3G license was issued as the fourth entrant into the mobile market.
The presence of four mobile operators (Gamcel, Africell, Comium, and QCell) could not have been possible without government's continued pursuance of its liberalization and privatization policies in order to attain its vision 2020, which is aimed at making the Gambia a private sector led and knowledge based economy.
The impact of GSM in the Gambia cannot be overemphasized and is much felt in rural areas that have drastically increased mobile density. As at now, the mobile subscriber base is 570,000 equaling 38% of the population and is bound to increase. This figure including basic telephony, registers a total access to telecommunication services of 629,000 depicting 41.9% tele-density. The Gambia has only one fixed line operator, Gamtel with 59,000 subscribers and 12,000 of which are wireless end users.
Radio and Television
Cognizant of the important role of journalists and media as a whole in the promotion and protection of rights and freedoms in any society which serves as a means to ensure peace, social justice, security and the advancement of national development, the Gambia under the leadership of His Excellency Sheikh Professor Alhaji Dr Yahya Jammeh in the last 20 years of progressive development witnessed the proliferation of private and commercial radio stations. This amply demonstrates the government of the Gambia's commitment to social justice, mutual respect and freedom of speech. There are fourteen commercial FM radio licenses issued by the ministry of Information and Communications Infrastructure concentrated in the Greater Banjul Area, coupled with the existence of five other community radio stations across the country compare to pre-1994 Revolution when there were no more than three radio stations.
This would not have been possible without government's devotion to freedom of speech and expression, in all its forms, including the right of association, and right to speech, as far as you do not infringe the rights of others. The Gambia's first private commercial radio station was Radio Syd. At the time, it was broadcasting from a vessel when it first came to the Gambia. Two medium wave channels are utilized under the state owned Gambia Radio and Television Service (GRTS) to broadcast various local radio programs and synchronize with external foreign channels for supplementary broadcasting.
West Africa Regional Communications Infrastructure Programme (WARCIP)
This project is ushering in an infrastructural revolution in the Gambia, allowing the country to connect to the Africa Coast to Europe (ACE) submarine cable. The ACE submarine communication cable which landed in the country in September 2011 began service in July 2012, connecting a host of African countries across the West Coast of Africa from France down to South Africa in what could be one of the longest undersea connections on the continent, stretching for more than 14 000 km. The ACE project will provide high-capacity and reliable bandwidth by providing direct connectivity to the information superhighway. Following the implementation of this project, a new Public Private Partnership initiative, called the Gambia Submarine Cable Company was created to operate and manage the Gambia's Submarine cable.
ECOWAS Wide Area Network (ECOWAN) Project
The ECOWAN project is contributing to the modernization and expansion of the national telecommunications infrastructure. This project addresses critical connectivity gaps, by extending communications and Internet services, and provides a regional e-governance platform for interconnecting ECOWAS local offices, member states and institutions.
The project also includes the provision of a government-wide area network to enhance e-government connectivity service. To this end, MOICI has been gradually developing a data centre, which will eventually evolve into a National Data Centre (NDC) for the Gambia. The current facility which hosts the government email service and web portal will be expanded in order to host several e-government services for various sectors under secured cyber environment.
"Although our international bandwidth has increased significantly and all service providers have increased their bandwidth capacity, we are yet to realize the full impact of this development as the carrying capacity of GSM and Internet Service Providers remains limited. Therefore, we will continue our efforts to support the public and private GSM and Internet Service Providers to improve their carrying capacity to match the increased bandwidth," President Jammeh said, quoted in a statement he delivered at the 2014 State Opening of the National Assembly in Banjul. During that ceremony, the president said the government is also embarking on another project to upgrade the national transmission backbone under the ECOWAN project. This project contract, according to him has been signed already and construction work was expected to commence in April 2014 and to end by June 2015.
The ACE Project
In President Jammeh's 20-year presidency, the Telecommunications sector continues to be given high priority for the fact that there could be no meaningful development in today's world without proper telecommunication infrastructure. This was why government made the bold decision of investing in the Africa Coast to Europe (ACE) submarine project to ensure a faster and reliable communication to facilitate business, education, health and research. So! It is without a doubt that the Africa Coast to Europe Submarine Cable will make a huge national difference to the landscape of the overall Information Communication Technology (ITC) ecosystem not only in the Gambia but also in other West African countries where the submarine cable has or will be launched. When we look at what has transpired from 1998 to date in the Gambia, we would have cause to commend the Government of President Yahya Jammeh for the laudable achievements and growth in spearheading accessibility to Internet resources as a tool for national development. It has been a tough road and sometimes frustrating but results have been achieved and will definitely be much higher this time around. On December 19, 2012, the Africa Coast to Europe project was launched in Gambia with up to 500 international policy-makers, regulators, operators, vendors and service providers from across the world in attendance. The project will crucially facilitate communication within the sub-region and by extension contribute to the realization of the African Union (AU) Programme on Infrastructure Development in Africa (PIDA), as agreed upon by the AU Heads of States and governments in Addis Ababa Ethiopia in January 2012.
Also worthy of mentioning is that the ACE project will create additional opportunities to modernize and enhance our telecommunication infrastructure and inclusion in the global information society and acknowledge economy.
Relating this development to our context, the project fittingly complements government's vision to transform the Gambia's communications infrastructure into the state of-the-art technology. By the same token, it accords neatly with the 'Build on Broadband' initiative launched by ITU, sequel to the Connect Africa Goal One, which seeks to interconnect all African capitals and major cities with ICT broadband infrastructure and strengthen connectivity to the rest of the world in the future.
"I must emphasize that the launching of the ACE cable system in the Gambia is a welcome development that will certainly put the country at the center stage of the global communications landscape," the vice president and minister of women's affairs, Her Excellency Aja Dr Isatou Njie-Saidy said at the launching ceremony on behalf of the president.
In June 2014, the Ministry of Information and Communication Infrastructure (MOICI) under the African Union Commission (AUC) African Internet Exchange Services (AXIS) Support Project unveiled the country's first-ever Internet exchange point.
This was a project initiated in collaboration with local telecoms operators and Internet service providers, which launching ceremony was held at GAMTEL's Serrekunda Exchange premises along Kairaba Avenue, where the Serrekunda Internet Exchange Point (SIXP) is located.
The SIXP establishes an Internet exchange point that would keep Internet traffic local, thereby reducing the pressure on costly international bandwidth.
The AU Commissioner officially launched the SIXP for Energy and Infrastructure, Dr. Elham Mahmood Ahmed Ibrahim, who was in Banjul to attend the ceremony, also attended by Works minister Bala Garba Jahumpa, who is overseeing MOICI.
Jahumpa in his keynote address said national bandwidth had increased by more than 300 per cent since the commissioning of the ACE Submarine Cable in December 2012.
However, "it was still critical to establish an exchange point to minimize the burden on unnecessary international bandwidth being utilized by our local traffic, which is expensive" he said.

My partner and I had a lovely stay here. Perfect size for two people and just enough amenities to meet our needs. The height of the bed didn't bother us at all but the stepping stools were appreciated. Found the bed to be very comfortable and both of us, who have sleeping issues, slept quite well. The location is excellent with easy access to the river trail in town, shops and, most importantly to us, a short drive to many trails. We arrived to 6" of snow but the hot tub took the chill out, though we were not able to find a way to increase the temperature and it did not feel like the water was actually 103 degrees, which the read out indicated. The kitchen was adequately stocked with pots, pans and utensils and all appliances worked well. We enjoyed the old picnic baskets and other antiques up in the loft area and scattered around the cabin. It was clear that someone took much time to find such items. Nice touch to a wonderful little cabin! We'll definitely keep it in mind for future trips.

WordPress 3.5 Gets Some New Features Read On To Find Out What!
Well I decided to dip my toe into the WordPress 3.5 waters. Guess what? It was quite warm, a comfortable temperature, not too hot and more than certainly not cold. So what can you expect from WordPress 3.5 what's the diff? I mean what goes down yada yada.
Well I have just downloaded the latest Release Candidate from WordPress here. I have installed in a site I am playing with and so far signs seem to be more than positive.
First things first the above box greets you upon installing. We have a box with a number of pointers to aid you in getting your WordPress powered blog up and running. All fairly easy to understand, bear in mind what you can't see is the dismiss X button (trying to keep the image as clear as I can you know!).
So first up we have Customize Your Site, Write your first blog post, Add an About page, View your site, Manage widgets or menus, Turn comments on or off & finally Learn more about getting started, which incidentally takes you to WordPress.org to learn more about getting started.
So lets take a quick look through and see what we can expect from 3.5 then. Lets take a closer look at Customise Your Site.
Theme Customization WordPress 3.4.2 & WordPress 3.5
The main thing you (might notice) is the difference in the buttons gone are the oval like buttons and replaced with more up to date curved rectangles, a minute difference but overall it looks more aesthetically pleasing and cleaner.
In fact all the options are the same save for one, and one that I am grateful for! The color settings, WordPress 3.4.2 on the left, WordPress 3.5 on the right. I was never a big fan of the color wheel and great to see an improved user interface for color selection here, in my opinion a welcome addition for ease of change. Score one 3.5.
How About Adding A Page On WordPress Any Difference?
Well yes their is. As you will see from the images above the TinyMce editor bar has a new look, and if you look carefully the boxes are as mentioned elsewhere rectangle with minimal curve.
The page sidebar has changed also, the above shows the little subtle differences between the two. Cleaner look and those lovely boxes showing themselves again. 3.4.2 on left 3.5 on right, excuse the cropping by the way!
Well no doubt you will have noticed the add media box is significantly different. One of my bug bears was adding media to WordPress, as much as I love it it was a bit of pain sometimes.
So what can we expect from WordPress 3.5 to make us site owners and bloggers that little bit more happy then? After all we are all up for an easier life and streamlining this process will help everyone out wont it?[clear]
Adding Media Settings in WordPress 3.5
Thankfully those lovely peeps at WordPress have come up with something a little special when it comes to adding media to your WordPress powered blog.
I have to say this for me is one of the most exciting features in WP 3.5 so far. Upon clicking add media we are given an iFrame with add media. Whilst the same principle applies we are given a much cleaner box with some options.
The old add media box was a pain in the ass (sorry WordPress) but it was, often adding time to a blog post adding images that could be better spent elsewhere like adding more posts! Thankfully, things have changed (massively so).
I have taken the liberty of uploading a couple of images well actually I dragged and dropped them in! Notice the side bar on the left? Upload files, media library, and from URL. Lets take a look at each one in more detail, apart from upload as that's not very exciting for you guys n girls.
So after I have added some images via the drag and drop interface (loving this so far) then you will note the box on the right which gives you details about the image itself. Don't worry I will go into a little more depth on this!
Image details in WP 3.5, I have to admit already writing this post on WPin on WordPress 3.4.2 and looking at WordPress 3.5 I have no doubt time will have been dramatically reduced. But hey that's me moaning, ignore me. I digress, image details for WP 3.5 are a lot easier.
You will note from the image to the left the Attachment Details. Giving us a more easy to read format for image details date added, size etc. Also adding a title, caption and the all important Alt text.
It just flows so much better, it's almost ridiculous. Other options such as alignment, link for the image and size can all be changed.
Worth noting that the link to image option gives you the following options:
- Custom URL – link your image to point elsewhere (choose this and an option for inputting a URL loads up)
- Link to attachment page
- Media file – link to the physical file itself
- None – (self explanatory)
In terms of image sizes this new upload media section gives you 3 predefined sizes for your image. One slight gripe and it is a slight gripe there seems to be no more image editor for cropping or scaling.
This was one of the things I liked about the old image upload editor, however it appears now to have gone. In fairness I think a lot of us use image editing tools for posts anyways to get the right look and feel for our media inserts.[clear]
Adding A Gallery With The New Media Upload in WordPress 3.5
Inserting a gallery could not be easier in WordPress 3.5 at the base of the right sidebar in the media upload you can click and insert a gallery.
Doing so gives us a new screen in the sexy media box. As the above shows we have a way to drag and drop images, to set order preference and of course Gallery Settings, here we can select where we want all the images to point to either attachment page or the media file itself. As well as selecting how many columns we wish our image gallery to have.
Another pretty cool feature is adding a description to the image right there in the new media upload system, a time saver indeed.
Other options for the new media upload facility for WordPress 3.5. Well as the image above shows, we have a few options, such as Uploaded to the page/post, Images in general, audio & of course video.
Adding media is a breeze via the new WP 3.5 system, in fact dare I say it the old system let WordPress down to a degree. However this new revised system is a massive boost for inserting media into a post. The biggest failure for me was how small the media box was when you were adding images etc to a post. Searching through images etc trying to find the right one, clicking on the pagination (because you forgot the name of it and couldn't search for it, been there done that) and going through each section.
Well no more, a nice big interface with an mini image preview all on one page (pagination would come into effect for thousands of images) however it's a damn lot easier to use than the current system is that's for sure.
Even adding an image from a URL is now EVEN easier thanks to the UI in WP 3.5. Simply paste the link and choose alignment, where to link it to, add a caption etc. It just looks better and has a real feel of a high end CMS. No doubt some of the above will not be to everyone's liking in the WordPress community, you can't please everyone unfortunately.
However I think it will be well received, it's been made more intuitive it looks better, it flows better need I go on? The guys n girls who developed this are on to a real winner. I believe WordPress 3.5 could end up being a real winner for bloggers/website owners who rely on on strong images.
Photo bloggers, graphic designers and more will all love the new way WordPress manages your media. I for one have had a lot of fun digging into WordPress 3.5, and if the above is anything to go by I will be upgrading the minute it hits the web.
Have you played with 3.5? What are your thoughts, likes/dislikes? Do let me know!

Rating: Total score: 85% workmanship: 100% ergonomy: 80%
With the recent announced UX21 and UX31 Ultrabooks, provided by the Taiwanese manufacturer Asus and marketed under the self-created term Zenbook, the already existing UX series moves back to the foreground. In 2009 Asus showed the slim notebook UX50V with energy efficient hardware and a 15-inch display. Today, three years after the first device of this series Asus presents two devices in the Ultrabook-class with 11.6 - and 13.3-inch display. The category Ultrabook itself was launched by Intel to the fire up the market of the top dog Apple with its MacBook Air 11 and MacBook Air 13.
Significant milestones for this project are a sleek design, fast and energy-saving hardware as well as a decent battery lifetime. Asus uses a alloy-chassis, a solid state drive and a lithium-polymer battery, which is integrated. In the first reviews for the two new devices the available ports, the bright screen and the minimalistic background noises in idle-usage models are highlighted. Disadvantages are the reflective surface of the display and the missing option to expand the integrated hardware.
Asus offers the Zenbook UX21 (11.6 inches) and the UX31 with the larger 13.3-inch screen from 999 € (MSRP) upwards. In regard to other devices you'll see that Asus only sell premium devices at the moment. Acer offers the Aspire S3 Ultrabook already from 799 € (MSRP) upwards. But in comparison the devices from Asus get a better result in the most reviews out there.
Intel HD Graphics 4400:
ULV integrated GPU (GT2) with 20 EUs found on certain Haswell CPU models.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Haswell-based ULV dual-core processor clocked at 1.6 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 2.6 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4400 and a dual-channel DDR3 memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
13.3": This is a common display format for subnotebooks. Netbooks, UMPC and some subnotebooks have tinier displays. Nevertheless, the majority of standard laptops has a higher format. The advantage of a small display is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the small display needs few energy, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is a bit exhausting for the eyes, especially with high resolutions.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
1.5 kg: This sub-notebook weighs less than the average of all notebooks and represents a medium class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 11 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Asus: ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated, a Taiwanese multinational company, produces motherboards, graphics cards, optical drives, PDAs, computer monitors, notebook computers, servers, networking products, mobile phones, computer cases, computer components, and computer cooling systems. The company's 2007 revenues reached US$6.9 billion. ASUS also produces components for other manufacturers. The Eee PC initiated the netbook boom in 2008.
85%: This rating should be considered to be average. This is because the proportion of notebooks which have a higher rating is approximately equal to the proportion which have a lower rating.

ATLANTA, Oct. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Vendormate VISION, the healthcare industry's flagship solution for vendor security and ethics compliance monitoring, makes it easier for users to gather and process the information they care about most with the release of VISION 4.0 today. Vendormate VISION 4.0 is produced by Vendormate, Inc., the leader in the emerging vendor information management category.
"Vendormate continues to distance themselves from the competition by asking the customer how to improve their product and then making those changes happen," said Alan Edwards, Director, Materiel Management, Children's Medical Center in Dallas. "Their continuous process and product improvement efforts reinforce our belief that we picked the best in breed for our organization."
Vendormate VISION streamlines the process of checking vendors and their representatives for acknowledgement and compliance with an enterprise's own policies and multiple government mandates regarding ethics, security, and financial behavior. Once vendors complete a simple screening and information process, Vendormate VISION tracks and reports to the enterprise each vendor's compliance status. Vendormate VISION also integrates vendor visitor badge functions to dissuade unauthorized access to client facilities.
Most hospitals typically have more than 3000 vendors. Collecting, organizing, and monitoring this type of information for each vendor is essential to materiel management, risk management, and compliance officers who are responsible for driving down their enterprises' purchasing expenses and risk exposure.
"The enhancements in this release were completely driven by our customers," said Andy Monin, Vendormate President and CEO. "For years, we've listened to our customer comments and tweaked our solution. Vendormate VISION 4.0 marks a giant leap forward in efficiency and user empowerment."
"The improved experience starts even before the homepage," said Bill
Hayes, COO.

sure of the number of fishermen at risk, was 147,649, which suggests a mortality of 89.4 per 100,000 person-years. The mortality rate for all accidents did not change appreciably during this period. As mentioned earlier, one of the objectives of the ITQ program was to make fishing safer, resulting in fewer deaths and injuries at sea. It is difficult to evaluate the impact of the quota program in isolation because many other developments have taken place at the same time (the structure of the fleet has changed, as well as the number of fishermen at risk; there are new regulations on safety precautions), and no systematic study has been conducted. Interviews with the people responsible for recording and analyzing accidents at sea do not, however, indicate significant changes in terms of safety and accidents. Data provided from the National Insurance Institute show that the frequency of accidents at sea (including non-quota fisheries in international waters) increased from the onset of the ITQ program to 1994 (see Figure G.20). Additionally, cod are plentiful in the winter, so fishing effort is concentrated then, despite the bad weather. There may also be pressure under the quota program for absentee owners to disregard crew safety.
Current Perceived Issues. Current discontent with the ITQ program can be summarized in several points:

The Concord Absorber XT also features a support leg with a pressure indicator, to ensure safe positioning inside the car.

The comfortable leg rests provide relaxed reclining with legs outstretched, and the extra long backrest provides for a long service life for taller children. The sitting/reclining angle is adjustable to five positions using a lever.
The Concord Absorber XT features a five-point harness system for securing your child safely in the car, and the soft padded covers are easy to remove and wash at 30 degrees.

My Edinburgh: Jessie Cave on Stand-Up School, migraines and unique star ratings
12 August 2013 02:30 PM
I am doing 20 stand-up gigs during this festival which will bring my stand-up gig total to 34 and a half. I am thinking of it as Stand-Up School. I am not comfortable telling people I am trying stand-up because to me that implies confidence. I'm - well, I'm not.

Written by Jane Wu
Whenever I have a rare burst of Saturday morning energy (and a craving for homemade soup or a special salad or stir-fry), I head over to Sunset Valley Farmers Market, just outside of Austin in Sunset Valley. Summer happens to be an especially favorite time for me to go, despite temps hovering close to 90 degrees by 11-ish, when I usually arrive there. Despite not getting there at the opening hour of 9 a.m., I can still find excellent selection. You see, I love making gazpacho, and there's no place or time of year better to find homegrown, organic tomatoes—the key ingredient—than the farmers' markets. I can also find fresh homegrown cucumber, onion, garlic and jalapenos, the supporting ingredients there. Plus, once you've cooked with garden-fresh garlic, store-bought never quite measures up.
4th of July fireworks displays never cease to give me a rush of excitement and ooh-and-ahh wonder. Despite the crowds and heat, I viewed this year's spectacle from the Ann Richards/Congress Avenue bridge in Austin over Auditorium Shores. I fully expected the usual teeming crush of humanity, and was not disappointed.

T.S. Spivet is a dreamlike fairytale, which swims in the romanticism of childhood and the decay of the American Dream.
The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet is the perfect 3D vehicle and Jeunet takes full advantage, offering a feast of amusing visual flourishes suited to the book's playfulness.
Jun 18, 2014The film's greatest achievement is in the way the accomplished 3D treatment -- this is Jeunet's first foray into the format -- emerges entirely naturally, as the precise expression of a gifted child's vivid imagination.
For all it boasts in ingenious style, this genial American yarn lacks the delicious bile of Jenuet's early days.
Jeunet occasionally reminds you why he was once considered one of the most exciting names in world cinema. But for the most part, it's another visually interesting, somewhat hollow misfire.
Like one of its animated 3D asides, the film jumps out at you, twiddles around and then folds itself away into nowhere. It's all pop-up, no book.
The two adjectives in the title should be replaced with "annoying" and "unendurably tiresome".

TellyPass Review
|No info
|Credit Card, Paypal
|PPTP, IPSec, OpenVPN
TellyPass is a VPN and proxy service that's very much designed around unblocking geo-restricted content. In fact, the interface for the service is even designed around this, making it a very easy choice for people who only want a VPN service for that purpose. It's a full-fledged provider, however, and TellyPass has a lot of other nice features, as well.
Pricing Plans
TellyPass offers the following subscription options.
- Monthly: $6.99
- 3 Months: $19
- 12Months: $69
- Monthly Plus VPN: $8.99
- 3 Months Plus VPN: $24
- 12 Months Plus VPN: $88
Payment Methods
TellyPass takes PayPal and credit card payments.
Free Trial / Money Back Guarantee
You can get a 7-day free trial from this provider to see how the service works.
Coupons / Discount / Special Offers
None at present.
Countries Supported
TellyPass has proxy servers located in:
- London, UK
- New York city, USA
- San Jose, CA, USA
- Raleigh North Carolina, USA
- Istanbul Turkey
VPN connections are made to a UK server.
VPN Protocols Supported
Setup instructions on the site indicate to use PPTP for manually setting up connections. Proxy servers don't offer encryption, but allow the user to get an IP address that gets around geo-restrictions.
TellyPass VPN Client
Setup is done manually for VPN connections, but the service has an interesting setup for proxies. In the user's account page, the proxy is set according to channel preferences, with the service taking care of the technical details. The user can opt to have both UK and US channels available, as well as Netflix from different locations, IE channels and others. This allows the user to set their proxy based on the content they want to watch rather than based on technical details. The closest proxy is chosen automatically.
Their DNS server is another option that works much the same as their smart proxy service and offers the same benefits.
Common Error Messages
None reported.
Logging and Privacy Policy
Tellypass logs your connection date and how long you were connected, as well as page accessed. They also collect information about which sort of device and software you use to connect. They erase their oldest logs at intervals.
Legal Use / Torrent Policy
No restrictions stated.
TellyPass vs. The Competition
TellyPass is really all about watching TV and it does a great job in that regard. The ability to configure your connection based on channels will likely appeal to a lot of people who want a proxy service for just that specific need.
TellyPass Conclusion
TellyPass has a lot to offer for those who want a service to stream television on. The VPN service is limited compared to specialty VPN providers, but may be fine for people who only use it once and a while. The different options for getting around geo-restrictions, however, and their ease of use are excellent.

Denver Broncos quarterbacks Caleb Hanie and Adam Weber at training camp in 2012. (BroncoTalk.net photo/Kyle Montgomery)
The Denver Broncos made the free agent acquisition of center Dan Koppen and re-acquisition of Caleb Hanie official Tuesday, announcing the moves in a press release Tuesday.
To make room on their 53-man roster, center/guard C.J. Davis was waived.
Other roster moves
The Broncos waived WR Tyler Grisham from Injured Reserve (presumably reaching an injury settlement with the third-year player) and made a pair of practice squad moves: signing DE Jamie Blatnick and releasing guard Wayne Tribue.
No surprise that Davis is the guy to go in Koppen's stead. I don't see Koppen unseating starter J.D. Walton right away, but he'll certainly push the third-year starting center. He does have a history with Broncos OL coach Dave Magazu dating back from Magazu's Boston College days, which helps, but Walton entrenched himself during training camp. I believe it's his job to lose.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians Summer Previewby Hilton Hater at . Comments
This video is no longer available. Please check below for related videos.Kourtney Kardashian has some big news in this Keeping Up with the Kardashians promo. Check it out now.
I think it's emotional abuse for Kourtney not to marry Scott after all this!!...
He's proposed many times. It's important for his Jewish heritage and beliefs to keep the family holy... Three illegitimate children??... Granted, Kourtney seems very fertile and a capable mother with sweet kids. She even seems to love Scott after all this time? Why is she afraid of making it official???...
She should respect Scott and his feelings!! :( Or at least do it for the kids!.

WALLA WALLA - What began on a dare 65 years ago will come full-circle to the city where the legend started when The King and His Court, founded by the late Eddie Feigner, a Walla Walla native, plays its final game Aug. 27 at Borleske Stadium.
"We are privileged to be in a position to host this event," said Walla Walla Sweets general manager Zachary Fraser.
The Sweets play at Borleske Stadium.
"There are precious few times in sports that you can have the symmetry of ending something this historic in the same place that it began," Fraser said. "It will be a fitting finale to the career of the greatest on-field entertainment troupe to ever grace a diamond.
"This will be a memorable show, and we are excited to provide a venue that will recognize the contributions made by Feigner and the players of the Court," he said. "This is their last-ever game, and it is perfect that Walla Walla will be the host."
It started with a bar bet in Pendleton. Pitching for Kilburg's Grocery, Feigner pitched his team to a victory over a team from Pendleton in a Walla Walla fastpitch softball league.
Later, at a tavern in Pendleton, the Pendleton manager was making comments about Feigner and his team, when Feigner whipped back a reply challenging the team to a game - with just Feigner and his catcher. Realizing he would need four players for offense, he brought along an infielder and a first baseman.
Using the Washington State Penitentiary as practice grounds, the four-man team prepared for the game, and won 7-0. Feigner pitched a perfect game, with only two batters putting wood on the ball.
With that auspicious start in the shadows of the Blue Mountains in Walla Walla, the King and His Court was born.
The group went on to become what many believed to be the greatest show on dirt. They logged over 3.5 million travel miles, with Feigner recording more than 141,000 strikeouts, 238 perfect games, 930 no-hitters, and recording over 8,000 victories before suffering a stroke in 2000.
The true value of these numbers was the fact that, unlike the Harlem Globetrotters of basketball (who the King and His Court are often compared to), the Court didn't play against the Washington Generals - teams routinely attempted to beat the four-man gang. They also made names for themselves by playing in such memorable venues as old Yankee Stadium, the Great Wall of China and Dodger Stadium (where Feigner struck out six future baseball Hall of Famers).
Feigner died in 2007, and the remaining members of the Court, now led by right-handed pitcher Rich Hoppe, continued the touring tradition. The 2011 season - the 65th - is the last.
The finale for the team that started across Route 12 at the Washington State Penitentiary will bookend their history at the 85-year-old Borleske Stadium. The historic facility, at one time the minor league home to Hall of Famers Tony Gwynn and Ozzie Smith, has been renovated over the past two seasons by a partnership between the Walla Walla Sweets and the Borleske Stadium Association.
Tickets for the event go on sale at 9:30 a.m. July 1 at the Sweets Shoppe downtown, or online at www.wallawallasweets.com.
Sweets season ticket holders will have an exclusive pre-sale opportunity to buy their seats before the general public starting Monday.
A portion of the ticket sales for the event will be donated to four groups that work to develop athletic opportunities for the youth of Walla Walla - Walla Walla City Parks and Recreation, Walla Walla Pacific and Valley Little Leagues, and Walla Walla Valley Youth Baseball and Softball.
Tickets will be $11 for General Admission ($8 for children 12 and under), $13 for Reserved, $15 for Premier and $17 for Diamond Club seats. Group opportunities, including use of the Sweet Spot presented by Key Technology, are available by calling 509-522-2255.
