A speaker at a protest against Michigan's right-to-work legislation said that Republican governor Rick Snyder will "get no rest" from pro-union activists if Snyder signs the bill into law."Just know one thing, Rick Snyder: You sign that bill, you won't get no rest," said Rev. Charles Williams II at the Tuesday rally in Lansing, according to Michigan Capitol Confidential. "We'll meet you on Geddes Road. We'll be at your daughter's soccer game. We'll visit you at your church. We'll be at your office."

Epstein Stresses Importance Of "Cubs Way" Manual For Entire Organization
Published February 20, 2012
NO MOVIE PLANS: The CHICAGO TRIBUNE's Sullivan noted Epstein "hasn't seen 'Moneyball' and isn't interested in getting it on Netflix." In fact, Epstein "still seemed peeved that inside information was released in the book." He said Saturday, "I think 'Moneyball' has become kind of a loaded term. That's not exactly what we do. We're just kind of trying to teach the game the right way. I wasn't a huge fan when certain proprietary information was made available to the public in the first place (in the best-selling book). Instead of a handful of clubs knowing certain things, within a year [or] two, 30 clubs knew it. It's not my cup of tea. I think it's great that is sounds like they made a really good movie and a lot of people got entertained. That's terrific. But it's baseball time, not movie time" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 2/19).

Yesterday's annual LTC Forum focused on assessment and feedback at UOW. If you missed the forum or you want to catch up on some of the highlights, Marcus O'Donnell has put together a neat package in Storify with tweets and images. Thanks Marcus.
Changes to Chrome that may effect your use of Moodle
From September 2015, Google is removing NPAPI support from Chrome which means that the Java plugin will no longer be available for that browser. For additional information, see https://java.com/en/download/faq/chrome.xml.
Impact for the UOW Learning Platform
The Java plugin is required to use some tools in EQUELLA and Moodle.
- File Manager
- In-place Editor
- TinyMC Editor (Equation Editor) – changing the default editor to Atto will resolve the Java issue for Moodle as Atto is not Java-reliant
Temporary workaround
Between now and September 2015, Chrome can still be used with the following workaround.
As of Chrome Version 42, an additional configuration step is required to continue using NPAPI plugins (Java):
1. In your URL bar, enter: chrome://flags/#enable-npapi
2. Click the Enable link for the Enable NPAPI configuration option
3. Click the Relaunch button that now appears at the bottom of the configuration page
Long term
After September 2015, a different browser will be required, such as Firefox or Internet Explorer.

Free Book: Teaching in a Digital Age (Bates: 2015)
This text might be of interest (and it is freely available):
Tony Bates (2015) Teaching in a Digital Age: Guidelines for designing teaching and learning for a digital age.
The book examines the underlying principles that guide effective teaching in an age when everyone,and in particular the students we are teaching, are using technology. A framework for making decisions about your teaching is provided, while understanding that every subject is different, and every instructor has something unique and special to bring to their teaching.The book enables teachers and instructors to help students develop the knowledge and skills they will need in a digital age: not so much the IT skills, but the thinking and attitudes to learning that will bring them success.
You can read it online, or download in PDF, epub, or mobi formats (268 page PDF) at http://opentextbc.ca/teachinginadigitalage/
Getting started with the UOW Digital Learning Thresholds (DLT)
What are the DLT's? Here are a few answers to common questions about the UOW Digital Learning Thresholds (DLT)
What are they?
The Digital Learning Thresholds are a strategy developed at the University of Wollongong to enhance digital teaching and learning. The DLT strategy was approved by Academic Senate in February 2014, and outlines expectations for digital learning across a range of online learning elements (e.g. Communication and Assessment). To find more about these elements please download the printable DLT definitions document online http://www.uow.edu.au/dvce/ltc/dlt/index.html
Why were they developed?
The Digital Learning Thresholds strategy was developed to enhance the learning experience of students through the incorporation of minimum expectations and good practices in digital learning. The DLT strategy supports that all students will have access to digital learning, and that both students and staff will have clear expectations about digital learning.
What do they mean for me?
The DLT strategy supports and guides staff in improving current practice and developing skills in the digital environment. A subject development tool is available to help you self-review and assess to what degree your online subject/s meet DLT guidelines.
This tool can be accessed at https://cedirsd.uow.edu.au/dlt/login
What do they mean for my students?
The DLT strategy promotes access for all students to digital learning that is underpinned by good practice.
Where can I find out more?
The following list of links will guide you to where you can find out more the DLT strategy:
The DLT Website
All DLT information and resources can be accessed from the DLT website http://www.uow.edu.au/dvce/ltc/dlt/index.html
DLT Definitions
For a more comprehensive understanding of each DLT element, a list of definitions can be accessed at http://www.uow.edu.au/dvce/ltc/dlt/index.html
Training and Support
For training and support contact a member of the Educational Design team. Contact details and information regarding upcoming workshops and training sessions can be found on the DLT website at: http://www.uow.edu.au/dvce/ltc/educationaldesign/index.html
DLT Guide
For an outline of the implementation of DLT phases and reference to ways in which to meet specific DLT guidelines, a guide document can be accessed from: http://www.uow.edu.au/content/groups/public/@web/@dvce/@ltc/documents/doc/uow182208.pdf
DLT Exemplars
For examples of the ways in which academics have been able to incorporate each element of the DLT strategy in their online courses visit: http://www.uow.edu.au/dvce/ltc/dlt/exemplars/index.html (Online video case studies coming soon)
Subject Development Tool
To review your online courses in light of the DLT strategy guidelines, a subject development tool for each of your sites can be accessed at: https://cedirsd.uow.edu.au/dlt/login

This Office for Learning and Teaching national forum will showcase examples from the thought leaders in the field in prior learning, credentialing, open badges practice and research, and offer an employer's perspective. The forum is a national event at Deakin University Burwood campus with sites for colleagues in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. We are utilising Cisco's WebEx as our streaming to University of Wollongong for our NSW/ACT colleagues through our partnership with Cisco as a project partner.
Mozilla's Open Badges project has opened up a new way of recognising skills and learning through an open, stackable framework and provided an opportunity to recognise more detailed aspects of learning. For example, whereas achievement of learning may be somewhat invisible in collated marks and grades, open badges enable the warranting of capabilities including those that are difficult to measure (such as team work and intercultural competence). Badging skills, experiences and knowledge can supplement or even replace traditional assessment signals such as marks and grades. Open badges can also enable a more social approach to assessment: badges can be issued or endorsed by designated stakeholders – peers, mentors, industry, associations – both within and outside of an institution and build the learner's ability to judge their own and others' performance.

Are you looking for online training in Moodle?
Some academic and professional staff at UOW have asked about online training options for Moodle. Our Uni subscribe to Lynda.com where you will find an excellent number of online training resources on Moodle and other software used across the uni.
Try Lynda.com here-
To find these and other useful training resources go to the Library Home page and navigate to databases, select "L" then search for Lynda.com. http://uow.libguides.com/content.php?pid=94329&sid=705357
Once there you will be required to set up your own Lynda account.
When in Lynda run a search for Moodle. The university is currently using Moodle 2.5 version and in November 2014 will be upgrading to Moodle 2.7, so look for these options or ones specific to the tool your interested in using.
An assessment alternative – digital storytelling
If you are considering innovative assessment ideas, you may like to consider getting your students to create a digital story as a response to an assessment question. Digital stories provide the opportunity for individuals or small groups to research and present ideas on a topic in a contemporary format.
Digital storytelling usually involves short videos, two to three minutes in length. A digital story can be made from a range of audio and visual elements. The backbone of a digital story is a written script, approximately 250 words long. The script is converted to an audio voice over and combined with visuals such as photos, drawings, diagrams, video, and animation to create a digital story.
For more information about digital storytelling, explore a LibGuide produced by the Faculty of Commerce, http://uow.libguides.com/digitalstorytelling

The booming web retailing market had investors in a mood to snatch up available online merchants in 2006. Among the Top 500 retailers changing hands: Eddie Bauer, Lillian Vernon, Norm Thompson, Provide Commerce and others.
As 2006 winds down, it will be remembered by Top 500 retailers, investment bankers and others as a memorable year for mergers and acquisitions.
Compared to only a handful of major deals in 2005, this year so far has produced almost 30 mergers and acquisitions involving Top 500 retailers. Among the most active buyers of web and catalog properties in 2006 was Golden Gate Capital, a San Francisco investment banking firm, which acquired Haband Inc., Carabella Corp. and Norm Thompson Outfitters Inc. Along with Sun Capital, Golden Gate Capital also acquired Eddie Bauer.
Among the other Top 100 retailers changing ownership in 2006 were Provide Commerce, No. 56 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, now a part of Liberty Media; The Sportsman's Guide Inc., No. 60 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, which became a part of Redcats in September; and Lillian Vernon, No. 66 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, which LV Catalog Holding Corp., an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners Inc., a Boca Raton, FL, investment banking firm, acquired in May.
"It was a banner year for mergers and acquisitions among web retailers and direct channel marketers," says Jim Okamura, senior partner with retail consultants J.C. Williams and Co. "There's a flood of private equity money coming into the market and investors are looking for under-valued brands they can invest in and grow for a longer period of time. All of this investment activity and deal making speaks well to the health of the web retailing market."
In general equity firms, investment bankers and others making acquisitions in 2006 were looking for both recognized brands and companies with a solid e-commerce infrastructure. NetShops Inc., No. 120 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, acquired Thralow Inc., No. 265 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide to Retail Web Sites, for its tightly focused stores that offer specialty products at diverse price points, says NetShops co-founder and CEO Douglas Nielsen. Likewise IAC/InterActive Corp. purchased ShoeBuy Inc. in January for its growing base in the $5 billion online shoes business.
"The acquisitions and mergers we saw in 2006 were by investors who wanted companies with both a high growth direct sales channel and established cash flow," Okamura says.
With Forrester Research predicting that the web retailing market will generate total sales of about $151 billion in 2007, industry analysts expect the next 12 months to be another active period for mergers and acquisitions. "There is still a ton of private equity money out there that can move into the web retailing market and the fact that many of the top retailers have been posting double-digit growth isn't being lost on investors," says LakeWest Group CEO Robert W. Antall. "This is a healthy industry trend."

HARARE (Reuters) - Zimbabwe Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai said on Saturday his Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) totally rejected an election result giving victory to President Robert Mugabe's ZANU-PF party and would exhaust all legal remedies to challenge it.
The MDC would not participate in any government resulting from what he called a "fraudulent" election, Tsvangirai told a news conference in Harare.

Some nice people on my team, although some others are lunatics
10% reduction in pay for ALL contractors after promise of mandatory overtime was completely false. This company will NEVER pay for a single moment of overtime and my director had the nerve to ask a couple of Project Managers to put this in illegally unpaid. The equipment provided after repeatedly asking for it is substandard, and my actual job responsibilities have nothing to do with those discussed when I interviewed.

After a slow start, the BYU women's tennis rallly came up short against No. 41 Washington, falling 4-3 at the Nordstrom Tennis Center on Friday.
"I'm really proud with how the girls performed today," BYU head coach Lauren Jones-Spencer said. "We are moving in the right direction. We came out slow in doubles but quickly turned it around in singles. The match could have gone either way."
The Cougars (0-2) gave up the doubles point before coming back against the Huskies (3-1) in singles play.
The three freshmen came up big for BYU. At first singles, Mayci Jones pulled off the victory, 7-5, 6-4, over Grace Ysidora.
Toby Miclat topped her opponent in three sets. After taking the first set, 7-5, and then losing the second, 5-7, the freshman clinched the point in the third, 10-5. Savannah Ware secured her match with Natali Coronel by capitalizing in the tiebreakers of the second set, 6-4, 7-6 (6).
Junior Meghan Sheehan-Dizon's comeback bid fell short against Elianne Douglas-Miron, 6-4, 1-6, 11-9. Sophomore Nicolette Tran had a similar outcome, losing to Julija Lukac, 3-6, 6-4, 11-9. Junior Morgan Anderson-Littlewood fell to her opponent, 6-4, 6-2.
"The team learned how important these tiebreakers are," Jones-Spencer said. "If we capitalize on the big points in the tiebreakers, then it would have been our match."
The Cougars will be on the road again for a two-game swing next week as they take on Washington State on Feb. 7 at 10 a.m. PST and Boise State on Feb. 8 at 10 a.m. MST.

Judit Polgár announces MATE IN 4! Can you solve it?
I am seeing a mate in 3 -
1.Rf8+ Bxf82.d6+ Be63.Bxe6#
What am I missing?
EDIT:Oh, Now I see:2. ... Qd53. Bxd5+ THEN3. ... Be64. Bxe6#
More straight forward than the title implies.
not bad
Loved the puzzle posted by 14 hours ago · in comment · #112 by sriramu123
Under-promotion to a sacrificial piece to avoid stalemate and enable checkmate!!!
The pawn can't capture the rook because it is pinned by the bishop
Orange_Mouse posts 2 ridiculous "solutions" to two "puzzles" in comment #138. Why?
The first "puzzle" should be a mate in 1 by black, and black makes the wrong move.
The second is a game opening by the two worst players I can imagine.
Don't you people get bored by always commenting 'too easy' and 'first page'? Every single puzzle they put, there is innevitably someone who wants to show just how unchallenged by the puzzle they are. Yeah, yeah, we know you're smart and an exceptionally awesome chess player, kudos to you, now talk more chess and less how dumb the others (apparently people who choose the puzzles) are.
This was an extremely brain-building puzzle.
I think there is an alternate solution in which 2.Rxg6+ followed by Qh6 is mate however black recaptures.
If 2. Rxg6+ then 2...Kxg6 3. Qh6+ Kf5.

Why I Should Choose A Spa Training Course?

They need just a graduation certificate, so going through the motion and end up at the college advisor's office. In this fast paced competitive economy, one should think deeply and make the best move for a successful career.
Business is a profitable platform to enter, but many people don't know what kind of business to do. Leisure occupation is a lucrative profession that is fun and exciting too. Spa business is a popular leisure occupation that includes giving therapeutic massages and rejuvenation to the total body.
Entering to the spa business
• You can work at or own a spa, but before that, you have to achieve some certification from any accredited spa school.
• Government also offers financial grants to prospective students to meet the financial costs of particular certified spa management program.
• Prospective students should have a clear idea of what a spa business is, before investing in.
• If you like to work as a spa massage therapist, you will need to work with elements like oils, lotions, massage heat lamps, massage table and chairs.
• Subject to appropriate spa course will help you educate yourself about how to work in day spas, spa resorts, health spas and salons.
• You can earn a considerable salary or income from spa industry. Managers can earn from $17,970-$69000 whereas entrepreneurs earn greatly more, depending on the population and demand for their service.
Spa business experience huge success as it is all about relaxation and health. These could be the major reasons why there is a growing demand for qualified and experienced spa professionals.

Fortunately, many universities run spa therapy college programs that help students to prepare themselves for being successful and competent professionals, serving the spa industry.
They need to accomplish the Board of Massage Therapy Examination. Besides this, many colleges train students to attend licensing exam in cosmetology. Accredited vocational courses in spa therapy will take a few hours or days to complete.
Thus, spa industry is a lucrative career choice if you want to earn a profitable income or salary and also enjoy a reputable position in the society. So, choose the particular college spa program and become a successful professional in the spa industry.

I'll admit it, as a kid Killer Klowns from Outer Space scared the heck out of me.
Long before ICP comes to earth, this bunch of goofy clowns, with a really great toy-based arsenal, land their space-going big top and get to making mayhem! A really useless cop, his love interest and the heroic Terrenzi brothers are all that stand between us, these man-eating clowns and their terrifying pop-corn. There really isn't much more to this classic terrible scifi horror, there doesn't need to be.
If you missed it when it was released you may have been among the fortunate!
Big Star: Nothing Can Hurt Me is the new documentary about the mythic, incredible, and commercially unsuccessful rock band formed in the early 1970s in Memphis by Alex Chilton, Jody Stephens, Chris Bell, and Any Hummel. Their three albums #1 Record, Radio City, and Third/Sister Lovers, influenced everyone from REM and The Replacement to Afghan Whigs and Wilco. The film's companion soundtrack album, out this week, is an excellent compilation of demos, alternate mixes, and rare recordings that will delight both longtime fans and those who are (gasp) new to the overwhelmingly awesome Big Star sound.

"Eltávozott nap" (The Girl) is a 1968 Hungarian film starring rock singer Kati Kovács. I haven't yet seen the film, about a working class girl's search for her biological mother, but the opening freakbeat credits drive me wild. You can read more about The Girl and other Hungarian, Czech, and Russian films at the UC Berkeley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive calendar for their ongoing "Treasures of Eastern European and Soviet Cinema" series.

According to the report, "by any impartial analysis, the re-investigation process prompted by Jesse Friedman, his advocates and the 2nd Circuit, has only increased confidence in the integrity of Jesse Friedman's guilty plea and adjudication as a sex offender."
Friedman isn't giving up though.
"Today is not the worst day of my life," he said. "I've had many, many worse days than today and I'm standing strong and I've got as much fight in me — I've got more fight in me — than I've ever, ever had before. So, game on."

Hunter S. Thompson's "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" (the movie) on speed. Er, even more speed. From 1A4 Studio who have done this with a number of movies, including Star Wars, Back to the Future, and The Matrix.
During World War II, the US Army deployed a "tactical deception unit" to Europe. The 23rd Headquarters Special Troops, aka the "Ghost Army," consisted of artists, ad directors, actors, and other creative folks who used inflatable tanks, sound effects trucks, and good ol' fashioned bullshit to trick the German forces. It included the likes of fashion designer Bill Blass, fine artist Elsworth Kelly, and photographer Art Kane. A documentary about the Ghost Army, directed by Rick Beyer, aired last month on PBS. You can watch it for free right here! The Ghost Army story would make for a great black comedy too! The Ghost Army (Thanks, Bob Pescovitz!)

I love hearing about sound effects in films and the work of foley artists, soundtrack composers, and sound designers. Back in 1997, I interviewed David Cronenberg for the bOING bOING print 'zine, and we mostly talked about the squishy oozy sounds he likes to use in his movies.

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., Jan. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc., (NASDAQ: RRGB), a casual dining restaurant chain focused on serving an innovative selection of high-quality gourmet burgers in a family-friendly atmosphere, today announced the selection of Vitro as its national creative agency of record.

As the gourmet burger expert continues efforts to revitalize the Red Robin brand and execute its long-term strategic plan, the company sought an innovative, idea-centered and collaborative agency partner with the expertise to integrate a complete arsenal of marketing disciplines and channels. Vitro, which has offices in San Diego and New York City, was selected after a nationwide agency search that included a capabilities review and creative and media assignment. Vitro's roles with Red Robin will include strategic planning, creative development and execution and media planning.
"Vitro impressed us with their insurgent attitude, their top to bottom understanding of our business, and their track record of growing challenger brands," said Denny Marie Post, Red Robin's senior vice president and chief marketing officer. "They delivered a fresh perspective that will help us climb to the top of this incredibly competitive category."
"We always say brands should treat their product as their best marketing channel, which works perfectly because there isn't anyone in America making better burgers than Red Robin," said Vitro chief executive officer Tom Sullivan. "We've been blown away by the passion, dedication and insight of the Red Robin team and we can't wait to jump in and help tell their story."
To lead the agency search, Red Robin enlisted Janet Bustin of Mzyme Marketing, a Dallas-based consultancy that conducts agency reviews in the areas of integrated communications, advertising, media, promotion, digital and public relations. Mzyme clients include Fortune 500 and other companies across categories including food and beverage, restaurant, retail, entertainment and services.
Vitro joins a roster of Red Robin agency partners that includes Parsippany, N.J.-based Coyne PR, the company's national public relations agency of record, which was selected in early 2012.

Discovering what works and what doesn't is vital for any budding entrepreneur
When Rob Blythe started his business, Instant Impact, he knew what he wanted to do: recruit university students in their penultimate year to internships with small businesses, which would hire the graduates the following year.
Six months later, he had to change tack completely. "We modelled it on what the big graduate employers do. But small businesses don't want to take on interns in the summer — that is their quietest time — and they don't want to wait until September to hire people when they need them immediately. What we were pitching wasn't what our customers wanted."
Within six months Mr Blythe and his colleagues had a new business model. "Now we focus on graduates all-year-round and it is much more successful."
Lucy Ames had a similar experience when she set up her freelance painting business. The former business analyst held her first sale at her former employer's premises and, on the back of that success, decided that corporate exhibitions would form a core part of her sales strategy. "But within a year I realised that people bought at that first sale because they knew me. Now I have far better success selling through the Open House network and via contacts."
Soula Zavacopoulos, director of The London Studio, printed lots of greetings cards featuring abstract expressionist paintings after finding that the style sold well in art galleries — only to find they weren't so popular with the public. "I was left with thousands of abstract expressionist cards. Now I trial a small range of digitally printed cards, even though they are more expensive per copy, before I get thousands printed off lithographically."
Ms Zavacopoulos, who has found success with her The Wisdom of Kids cards and products, also discovered early on that good legal advice is worth investing in after a client refused to honour a verbal agreement. "Financially I suffered twice: due to the non-payment and also due to concentrating on his business and not my own. As he was such an important figure in the industry I didn't dream he would go back on the terms of our agreement. I thought it would be career-building." Ultimately it has been, because she has learnt from her mistakes.
Mathy Lisika-Minsende, founder of the career transition website Whatthejobisthis, "learnt the hard way that verbal agreements don't work. Now I get everything in writing, even if it is just an e-mail."
Ms Lisika-Minsende also discovered six months into her five-year business plan that "I'd definitely been too ambitious and I needed to stand back and look at the small steps rather than just the big picture".
Staying focused is key. Martin Harrison, commercial director at the copywriting service Copify, says: "The big lesson we have learnt is that sometimes you have to say no. Otherwise requests can divert you from more profitable activities. For instance, initially we were asked to do some account management but we found it took up too much time and we got our fingers burnt with late payments. Now we don't do account management and we take payment up front. You have to be quite single-minded."
Money tends to focus the mind. Oliver Barber, director of Kingsbridge & Carter, a property investment business, tells how one of his first deals fell through, threatening to bankrupt the fledgeling company. "We were left with a black hole in the books and just ten days to go.
"So I begged some Air Miles and got on a flight to Singapore and gave a presentation to some friends and contacts there. I managed to negotiate a deal, but if I hadn't we would have lost every cent the company had." The lesson? "We have made a stipulation that we won't discuss any deal unless we have met the client face-to-face and built up a personal relationship. It has meant more work but it has been worth it."
The road to success can have many unexpected twists and turns. As Ignaty Dyakov, director of the language-based business consultancy Russia Local, found: "I thought with the Olympics here and in Sochi in 2014 that I was in a strong position, but August-September was dead. Everyone went away. But it helped me think about our long-term business goals."
The result was that Mr Dyakov wrote a language textbook aimed at businesses looking to break into Russia and expanded the business to appeal to non-British clients in London. As he says, failures and mistakes "can make business stronger".
