"People working together need to coordinate their activities regardless of where and when they are. This need will never go away, not as long as there are people."
- Peter William Lount, 1998
I have worked in the USA, as a consultant, a number of times for various clients including JPMorgan on Wall Street, Deluxe Corporation and Fannie Mae. All of these consulting projects were Object Oriented using Smalltalk or NeXTStep/OpenStep. I run the www.Smalltalk.org web site. In addition to my Fortune 500 clients I have clients that are from various industries: finance, construction and engineering, web sites, magazines and tax appeals. My current resume is avaliable if you are interested in contracting my consulting services.
At JPMorgan I worked intensively with Dianna Merry-Shapiro who was one of the original Smalltalk-72 team members (we sat back to back in a tiny room on Wall Street). It was a privilage working with her as I learned a lot of important things about Smalltalk and the culture of people who created it. We produced a very successful Smaltalk based analysis system for JPMorgan. I implemented a full drag and drop system in Visual Works Smalltalk 2.x in less than six weeks in 1992!
I have a strong bent towards need based design (the need for our game is fun)! I am the author of Gemstone Warrior™ and Gemstone Healer™, two successful video games from the 1984 time frame. Gemstone Warrior won an award in 1985 for best hybred game from the CES show. I wrote it entierly in 6502 assembly language for the Apple II and it was ported to the C64, Macintosh and Japanese computers. I didn't like the PC at the time so I missed out on some very good sales... Woops... Live and learn. Download an AppleII emulator (for Win95) (visit the Apple II emulator Resource Guide for other platforms), the Gemstone Warrior Disk, the Gemstone Healer Disk 1 and Disk 2 game diskettes and let me know how you like the games!.
I have a stong interest and well developed skills in Smalltalk, Assembly Language, Graphics (2D, 3D, 4D-time), Persistence, Object Technology with Fault Tolerant and Full Transaction Processing, Group software, Graphic design, Needs assement, Vision, OOAnalysis, OODesign, OOImplementation and Mentoring people in object technology. I assisted in teaching a OO Course at the British Columbia Institute of Technology with Scott Bleackley. My primary focus in software is Quality ("Zen and the art of motercycle maintenance").
One of my interests is taking photos. The photo of me above is from the 1998 OOPSLA Conference which was held in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. See a couple of other photos that I've taken with my cool Sony Mavica Digital Camera:
All the best,

After Taksin's death, General Chakri (Rama I) became the first king of the Chakri Dynasty, ruling from 1782 to 1809. His first action as king was to transfer the royal capital across the river from Thon Buri to Bangkok and build the Grand Palace. Rama II (1809-1824) continued the restoration begun by his predecessor. King Nang Klao, Rama III (1824-1851) reopened relations with Western nations and established trade with China.
King Mongkut, Rama IV, (1851-1868) may have achieved western fame through the story "The King and I", but won the hearts of Thais for his accomplishments including the establishment of treaties with European countries, thus avoiding colonialization, and modernizing Thailand through many social and economic reforms. King Chulalongkorn, Rama V (1869-1910) continued his father's tradition of reform, abolishing slavery and improving the public welfare and administrative systems.
Educational reforms, including compulsory education, were introduced by King Vajiravudh, Rama VI (1910-1925). During the reign of King Prajadhipok, Rama VII (1925-1935), Thailand changed from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy. The king abdicated in 1933 and was succeeded by his nephew, King Ananda Mahidol Rama VIII (1935-1946). The country's name was changed from Siam to Thailand with the advent of a democratic government in 1939. Our current monarch, King Bhumibol Adulyadej (R. Jun. 9, 1946 - present), is King Rama IX of the Chakri Dynasty.

Hi, I've bought ShareSpace & am very disappointed to learn that I'm not able to access MioNet on my iPhone due to Java & that only WD Photo app is available on iPhone. Hence, I would like to suggest that WD develop an all-in-one app for iPhone instead of only Photo. This new app should be similar to QNap's iphone app - accessable to view photos, watch videos, play music & access data/files/documents from the NAS. Looking forward for such app soon! Thanks!
any news on when this cool app is launching?
Good idea. You have my vote.
hello hello...anyone still working in wd? anyone in wd is working on this to enhance consumers' experience?
You get my vote on an enhanced WD Photo to allow viewing all files
I agree. Will there be an app for the Iphone to retrieve all files from one's PC??? It seems like a common need and request.

In what has recently become national news, the Massachusetts Department of Education has issued a directive for how schools should deal with "transgender" students, including the rule that students who claim that they identify with the opposite gender must be allowed to use the opposite-sex restrooms and locker facilities. The directive was issued to help ensure that school districts do not run afoul of the state's 2011 anti-discrimination law that makes transvestites and other transgendered individuals a protected class.
With the rise in aggressive homosexual activism over the last several years has come an increase in the numbers of young people who identify as homosexual or with the opposite gender. "These students, because of widespread misunderstanding and lack of knowledge about their lives, are at a higher risk for peer ostracism, victimization, and bullying," reads the education department document.
According to the directive, issued last June by the state's Education Commissioner, Mitchell Chester, the gender with which a student identifies is up to that student and his parent or guardian, so, for example, if a male student insists that he feels more like a female, he must be treated as such, including being allowed to use the girls' restrooms and locker facilities.
In all instances, the directive mandates, "the student may access the restroom, locker room, and changing facility that corresponds to the student's gender identity."
The directive stipulates that a student (in this case, even a male student), "who says she is a girl and wishes to be regarded that way throughout the school day and throughout every, or almost every, other area of her life, should be respected and treated like a girl."
Explains the directive: "One's gender identity is an innate, largely inflexible characteristic of each individual's personality that is generally established by age four… As a result, the person best situated to determine a student's gender identity is that student himself or herself."

WADDINGTON Area business owners looking to cash in on the hordes of fishing enthusiasts expected to visit the area for the Bassmaster Elite Series Tournament in August can learn how with free informational classes hosted by the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce next month.
Were expecting thousands of visitors to our county in August, chamber Executive Director Patricia L. McKeown said. People want to know about how this tournament is going to benefit the county. The chamber feels strongly that the way to maximize this golden opportunity is to provide as much information as possible to our businesses so they can capitalize on these opportunities.
The classes will be hosted by Ruby J. Sprowls, a marketing specialist and customer service expert.
Mrs. Sprowls said the The Business of the Bassmasters will focus on three main points: what the visiting anglers need, building good customer service, and developing a strong return-customer philosophy.
For example, restaurants and gas stations might consider opening at 5 a.m. or earlier to accommodate anglers before check-in, Mrs. Sprowls said.
The class also will be focused on entertaining their families, Mrs. Sprowls said.
Many anglers bring their families, she said. Many families will be searching for something to do for the several hours after check-in time and before weigh-in. They might want to go to a spa, see some local sites or go shopping.
The classes are open to all businesses in the area. The needs of the anglers vary.
The most important thing to think about is what the possibilities are, Mrs. Sprowls said. The north country is unique. We dont have just one giant strip mall where the stores are congregated all in one area, so that will spill over to Ogdensburg, Potsdam, Canton and even Franklin County.
The classes are scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m. June 5 at the Dobisky Center, 100 Riverside Ave., Ogdensburg; from 1 to 4 p.m. June 12 at the village of Potsdam Community Room, 18 Elm St., 2nd floor, and from 1 to 4 p.m. June 19 in a location yet to be determined in Massena.
Classes are limited to 25 people. Call the chamber at 386-4000 to reserve a spot.
Thousands of readers like you have made Northern New York Newspapers the number one ranked website* for local news and sports coverage in the north country.

Spanning six million acres, the Adirondack Park is a green island of mixed forests, rugged mountains, lakes, bogs, rivers, and wetlands within the heavily populated landscape of the northeastearn United States. The largest intact temperate forest in the world, the Adirondacks are home to wide-roaming wildlife like moose, bobcat, and black bear. The vast network of connected wilderness areas intermixed with private lands that make up the park is a model of successful conservation work. At-risk species such as loons and bald eagles have rebounded from the threat of pollution here and are now an integral part of the park's impressive web of wildlife. The park is also an important breeding area for hundreds of long-distance migrating birds like the rare Bicknell's thrush.
Established in 1892, Adirondack Park is a mosaic of public and private lands, with over 100 towns and villages spread among its forests and lakeshores. To achieve conservation goals within this innovative land-use structure requires creative collaboration with the communities that live here and visit the park. Half of the park is privately owned, and land use is co-managed by the New York Adirondack Park Agency.
Adirondack Park is just a day's drive away for millions of people, providing residents of the northeastern U.S. and southeastern Canada with easy access to wilderness. At the same time, the park's accessibility and mixture of land uses creates a unique set of management challenges.
Since the mid-1990s, WCS has worked to find common ground between local interest groups in the Adirondacks and to develop innovative conservation solutions that work for the region as a whole. Our goal is to ensure that Adirondack Park remains a resilient landscape where human and wildlife populations thrive across a patchwork of communities, forests, wetlands, mountains, and rivers.
WCS promotes wildlife conservation and healthy communities in the Adirondacks through applied research, community partnerships, and public outreach. Our scientists are studying population trends of common loons, moose, and boreal birds to implement informed conservation measures. We are also investigating the impact of different types of land use on wildlife and ecologically sensitive areas, identifying land-use recommendations, and providing tools and guidelines to help communities and land managers ensure that development is environmentally sound. We create partnerships in which WCS science and expertise can help local towns meet community needs. And, because climate change is a serious threat to this landscape, we work to understand the changes that may occur here in the near and distant future.
On the third Saturday of July, WCS conducts an annual loon census with
the help of local Adirondack residents and visitor volunteers. This
data provides a quick glimpse of the status of the breeding loon
population in and around the Adirondack Park and across New York State.
WCS-Canada is working with the transboundary Two Countries, One Forest initiative to support conservation planning for northern Appalachia from New York to Nova Scotia. We are helping to ensure that the region remains connected and able to accommodate the needs of wildlife as the climate alters habitats over time.
A new study reveals that some birds keep their distance from human dwellings, while others cozy up to our homes. The study examined the impacts of the human footprint encroaching on the Adirondack Park's rural areas, finding that development may affect wildlife several hundred meters from our homes.
WCS Ecologist Jerry Jenkins, who has spent more than four decades studying the environment of the Adirondacks, documents the impacts of climate change on the region's wildlife, habitats, and communities.
Two injured bald eagles find a new home at the WCS Bronx Zoo. These young birds
from Wyoming add to the growing ranks of this once-endangered species now making
a comeback in New York.
Volunteers who participated in the 2010 annual loon census on Saturday, July 17 surveyed more than 300 lakes and ponds in in and around the Adirondack Park and across New York State.
WCS ecologist Jerry Jenkins shows the global problem of climate change hitting home in the Adirondacks and how the region can fight back.
A long-term study by the Wildlife Conservation Society, the BioDiversity Research Institute, and other organizations has found and confirmed that environmental mercury—much of which comes from human-generated emissions—is impacting the health and reproductive success of common loons in the northeastern U.S.

One of the world's oldest M.G.s visits Hemmings Motor News
Hemmings Motor News's own Sibley Shop was honored to welcome a very historic visitor last month when a 1926 M.G. 11.9hp Supersport was brought in for a special display.
The occasion for this visit was the 2013 Kimber Festival, hosted by the New England MG 'T' Register. The annual Kimber Festival is an academic symposium-style conference for M.G. historians and enthusiasts, in which speakers present various topics focusing on different aspects of M.G. history. This year's event was special in that it celebrated the 125th birthday of M.G. founder Cecil Kimber, and the talks would be given on Saturday, April 13, at the Bennington Museum, up the hill from HMN HQ.
We hosted the kick-off reception on Friday evening, and attendees were excited to get their first up-close look at Amherst, New Hampshire, resident Chris Nowlan's "Bullnose" Morris Motors M.G.
We'll let Chris tell the story:

Since news broke that there was an alleged plot by Iran to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the United States, Adel A. Al-Jubeir (photo), and destroy a number of embassies, Iran has adamantly denied the accusations. Likewise, skeptics questioned whether the plot could have been staged by Iran, who would have had little to nothing to gain from such an endeavor, and claimed that the plot was uncharacteristic of Iranian terror. Others have asserted that the entire plot was in fact manufactured by American law enforcement agencies as an impetus for war against Iran. Adding yet another layer to this news story, Iran has come out and said that the plot was in fact planned by the French/Iraqi-based Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK), which is actually funded and supported by the United States.
Last week, the United States charged American-Iranian Mansour Arbabsiar, a used car salesman, for his role in an alleged plot to murder Ambassador Adel Al-Jubeir and attack Saudi installations in the U.S. in a plan reportedly plotted earlier this year. According to the Justice Department, Arbabsiar conspired with Gholam Shakuri, a member of Iran's Qods Force — an arm of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Iran immediately denied the accusations, with the Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast declaring, "These attitudes, which are based on the age-old and hostile policies of the American-Zionist axis, are a ridiculous show in line with a scenario that aims to divide and that emanates from enemies of the region."

CLAYTON — Clayton officials have decided to part ways with their general consultant for a $2.3 million dock project planned on the edge of the former Frink America property.
"This is the only way we can move forward," said Roland A. "Bud" Baril, chairman of the Clayton Local Development Corp., the project's lead agency.
Everything seemed to be going well at first, officials said, until CLDC's consultant, Applied Technology Management Inc., submitted designs that would push the construction project over its $2,373,000 budget by nearly $500,000.
W. Samuel Phlegar III — president of the Charleston, S.C.-based international coastal, environmental, marine and water resources engineering firm — declined to comment, saying he had not yet been notified and was unaware that Clayton was about to end its relationship with Applied Technology.
Local officials said Clayton's attorney sent out a written notification to the firm Wednesday.
Town Supervisor Justin A. Taylor said engineers were asked to redesign the project to keep the work at or under budget, but the consulting firm failed to do so.
Project engineers came back with a revised plan that shaved $200,000 off their previous designs, but their proposal was still over budget by $300,000, Mr. Taylor said.
LDC members said project engineers also failed to alert Clayton officials beforehand of possible project cost increases, even though Clayton's contract with Applied Technology required engineers to notify local officials of any major concerns during the design phase.
Mr. Taylor said that Clayton would retain designs and layouts submitted by Applied Technology and that the project will be handed over to the town's engineer with St. Lawrence Engineering, Clayton.
Officials hope to move forward with this federally funded project "as soon as possible," he said.
Clayton secured a $1.1 million federal matching grant in 2010 to make the waterfront village more attractive to recreational boaters in transit by building public docks.
With federal funds and revenue from the sale of the former Frink America snowplow factory site, Clayton plans to build 52 slips for transient boats between the east side of Frink and Washington Island, a boaters' amenity building and a wave attenuator.
The St. Lawrence riverfront Frink property is on the northeast end of the village peninsula and is the site of the Buffalo-based Krog Corp. and Hart Hotels' $22.5 million 1000 Islands Harbor Hotel, which is scheduled to open next summer.
Clayton sold 7.04 acres of the 8.4-acre site to the hotel developers, Clayton Harbor Hotel LLC, earlier this year for $2.1 million, but the waterfront and riverwalk remain public domain.
To keep the construction project within budget, Clayton plans to seek bids for the project in multiple phases and require contractors to submit a number of alternatives using different specifications.
"We want to have the greatest flexibility possible when the time comes to make a decision," Mr. Taylor said.

BUFFALO, N.Y. - Buffalo has its first recycling coordinator in four years.
Commissioner of Public Works Steven Stepniak has selected Susan Attridge for the job that has been vacant since 2009. Attridge was hired May 2 at an annual salary of $54,500. She lives in Hamburg and will have to move to the city as a requirement for all Civil Service positions. The city hasn't officially announced her hiring.
The job had been funded but vacant, with many of the duties handled by Raymour Nosworthy, the son-in-law of University Common Council Member Bonnie Russell, an ally of Mayor Byron Brown. The city advertised the position last October after Investigative Post questioned officials about the vacancy in light of the city's anemic recycling program.

|Starting catcher Josh Ray belts a hit during Saturday's game against Southern Nevada.
Finishing off conference play against third place Western Nevada, the Eagles stepped up their game a bit and split the four game series. Coming off a huge 16-0 non-conference win against Weber State on April 25 th Eagles took game one by the score of 6-2 against WNCC. WNCC grabbed the middle two by the scores of 7-3 and 3-2 before the Eagles got back to their winning ways with a 8-3 victory.
Departing from the conference schedule on April 25th, the Eagles demolished the Aggies in a 16-0 shutout win. The game went nine innings despite the lopsided score and five CEU pitchers got a piece of the win. Jordon Salmon put in three innings to post the win. The Eagles pounded out 16 rums on 14 hits and played error free ball.
Riding high of the heels of the blow out win, the Eagles got back on the horse against WNCC on Friday afternoon. They fell behind in the third as WNCC put up a run, but tied it up in the fifth with one of their own. They took control in the sixth with five and only allowed WNCC to score one in the seventh. Jake Bankoski went six for the win.
WNCC busted out in the second game to go up by six before the end of the third. CEU answered with one in the third. They tried to come back in the seventh but could only push two across before the game ended with a loss. Starter Cole Evans only lasted one inning before being chased off the mound. Garrett Rose didn't fare much better and the Eagles used two more pitchers before the game was through.
On Saturday it was the third inning before WNCC drew first blood with a two spot. They added one in the fourth before CEU put up two of their own. The Eagles played some good defense included a diving catch in right field that was initially ruled a trap. After a huddle the call was overturned and the Eagles got out of the inning with a double play. But lack of offense doomed the team to another loss as they failed to score in the final two innings.
Knowing that this was their last regular season shout at a win, the Eagles jumped out to an early lead in their final game. They were up by six before WNCC scored one in the sixth. They added two more in the sixth. CEU took back a five point lead with two of their own and went on to win their final game. Seth Spainhower chalked up the win for the home team.
Thursday May 2 will have CEU facing off in Henderson Nev. for the SWAC tournament. The winner will play number one seed Southern Nevada at 6 p.m. It is a double elimination bracket with those three teams facing each other at least twice. The winner of that bracket will play a three game series on the higher seeded teams home field.

Parties' Platforms Tackle the Tech Sector, but Devil is in the Details
A lot will change after today, but for the industry, priority public policies remain the same. But what are the candidates' priorities? Republicans and Democrats do not agree on much, but if there is one thing they do agree on, this country needs Innovation. A quick word count shows the Republicans used the word 27 times and Democrats used it 16 within each respective Platform document released at the National Conventions this past August and September. But who's counting anyway?
With Election Day upon us, the IAB is cracking open those Platform documents once again to take a look at what "Innovation, Internet Freedom, and a 21st Century Workforce" among other buzz words really means to the Democratic and Republican parties' policy proposals.
Why does this matter to you? Whether you are a netizen, tech company, publisher, or just earning your Internet cred, these policies will shape our future, directly and indirectly impacting you personally and your business. Follow along at the links below.
"Moving America Forward: 2012 Democratic National Platform"
"We Believe in America: Republican National Platform"
Education and 21st Century Workforce
Music to any tech wonk's ears is the increase in STEM education, (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). The President hopes to double down, and increase investments in science two-fold to educate the next generation of scientists, facilitate private sector innovation, and prepare at least 100,000 new math and science teachers over the coming decade. To supplement this investment, the President proposes "stapling a green card" to every advanced degree in STEM fields for foreign students to stay here in the U.S. and help create jobs. The Governor would likewise utilize his red, swing-line stapler to foster job creation and keep STEM degrees in the U.S. The Governor, however, focuses on increased STEM education through consumer choice in education, removing boundary barriers to school choice, and replacing teaching tenure systems with a merit-based approach to help attract the best and brightest talent in the classroom.
"Do Not Track"
No, this IABer did not slip this paragraph in as a hoax, you read that right. The words "Do Not Track" appear in the Democratic Platform. Noting many regulations are outdated, unnecessary, or too costly, the Administration proposes a "simpler, smarter, cost-effective approach to regulation" emphasizing "common sense safeguards." The Administration underscored the launch of the Internet Privacy Bill of Rights and self-regulatory agreement for a "Do Not Track" option for consumers as a successful example of an efficient and effective approach to regulation.
Internet Freedom
While the Democratic platform seeks to reform how government regulates, the Republican platform points to the removal of regulatory barriers. Specifically, the Republican party's Internet Freedom platform would seek to prevent legacy regulations from interfering with new, disruptive technologies, protect the current multi-stakeholder approach to Internet governance, and secure personal data from government overreach. Even more, the Republican platform calls for a retreat from what it argues is the current Administration's "Luddite" approach to technological progress (citing net neutrality), preferring instead a public-private partnership to build out America's wireline and wireless broadband infrastructure. The President has likewise opposed extension of intergovernmental controls over the Internet and supports the multi-stakeholder approach; however, Internet Freedom takes on a different meaning that points to human rights. The Administration will continue to defend Internet Freedom for the freedom of expression, assembly, and association, and preserve the Internet platform for commerce, debate, learning, and innovation, identified in some circles as net neutrality.
Digital Infrastructure
The Governor's proposals are very specific, albeit not identified as infrastructure in the document. The Republican platform would reform communications laws, encourage public-private partnerships to build out rural broadband, and conduct an inventory of federal spectrum for private sector build out. The President has committed to ensuring 98% of the country has access to high-speed wireless Internet access, including solutions to free up spectrum and build out a nationwide, interoperable public safety network, as well as building a smarter electrical grid and upgrading IT infrastructure for the health and education sectors.
To some the magic words are tax reform, still others may be happy to just see repatriation, but for everyone in the tech sector until reform comes to fruition (last in 1986), the Research and Development tax credit is always a top priority. Both the President and the Governor would permanently extend the R&D credit for innovators. That is where the similarities end. Democrats support lowering the corporate tax rate in exchange for closing tax loopholes, and would lower rates even further for manufacturers who create jobs in the U.S. The Governor would reduce the corporate tax rate, repeal the corporate alternative minimum tax, and create a territorial system of corporate taxation to allow for the repatriation of investments to the U.S.
And leaving little to distinguish the two parties…
Intellectual Property
At the heart of the tech sector is our nation's knowledge assets - the creativity and ideas that anchor a successful business. This is not lost on either party, as both seek to vigorously defend intellectual property here and abroad.
Important both for our Nation's security and a flourishing Internet economy, any cybersecurity policy will have a lasting effect on how companies function in the ecosystem. Both parties seek a free flow of information between the government and the private sector, but neither spell out the path forward for secure communication channels or obligations. Following the release of the Platform document in Charlotte, the President has since released a draft executive order that tracks the Cyber Security Act of 2012 citing congressional inaction.

Refuting the 'Social Media Hangover' at Political Conventions
Please excuse this IABer's arrogance when she says: the experts got it wrong.
After Tampa and Charlotte, the reports came flooding in "social media revolution failed," "Parties still need physical convention," and "will social media ever live up to its promise?"
But if you know what I mean when I say #eastwooding, read no further, you probably already get everything I am about to highlight.
For some reason, just like novice mobile marketers, the pundits looked to social media to replace the political norms, and missed the true Holy Grail. Just as a successful cross platform marketing campaign reaches the consumer as they move throughout their day, in different contexts utilizing both old and new, social media supplements the convention and campaign platform, it is not there to replace it. Breaking down the walls did not simply mean to host a virtual convention, rather, it's a tool to expand audience and break down access barriers.
Let's be honest, while baby boomers and beyond are still happy to find a couch during prime time TV, up and coming generations are highly mobile (and I don't mean by device), they are cord cutters, and they consume a lot of information and entertainment through multiple platforms and services, at the time convenient for them.
Social media is our Where Brother Art Thou's tin can and soapbox. It's retail politicking. How in a modern national campaign do you recreate the glad handing, baby kissing, and storytelling necessary for intimate, voter engagement? Accessibility and communication.
Kal Penn's call for #sexyface wasn't just a funny gimmick; it created an opportunity for engagement. Voters like to feel as though they are a part of the process and in on the secret. It took less than an hour for #sexyface to trend on Twitter. While an unintended consequence, @InvisibleObama had tens of thousands of followers in the first hour, 40,000 by the next morning.
And this raises a separate question that has yet to truly unfold: measuring social media's impact. Some argue in order for social media to be successful, it must be organic. On this point, the two campaigns seem to be diverging, and we will be presented with two case studies by year's end. Last week, the Romney campaign was the first political campaign to purchase a paid promotion on Twitter. Consider, the President clocks in over 19.6 million followers to the Governor's 1.1 million.
Campaign strategies aside, the beauty of social media at the conventions this year was its seamless integration - it was universally present, yet invisible - like any great technology should be. From delegates swiping badges to update their Facebook timeline, Eventbrite check-ins, to the hottest ticket in town literally: lattes in the Google Media Lounge, to Convention real-time apps, and Tweet-ups. The experts failed to realize social media at the conventions wasn't a replacement, but an enhancement.
The 2008 Presidential and 2010 Midterms were just the beginning. We are only beginning to see the tipping point, and there will be mistakes, flaws, and downright failures as campaigns navigate the best way to put these tools to use. I am often pointed to the Veep App as evidence social media and technology platforms don't work for political. The much-vaunted Veep App would be the first place for voters to find news on the Governor's announcement for a VP candidate. Unfortunately for the App, and the campaign, that news broke before the App could. And it is true; campaigns must have controlled messaging, and esoterically will remain unchanged for the near future. But don't shoot the App, campaign leaks are tech-agnostic.
And we're just scratching the surface. Be sure to join us this year at the IAB MIXX Conference & Expo as some of the smartest minds in media and political discuss the "Digital Election" and examine how the Internet will decide the Presidency this year.

Get out your buttons and your boaters… IAB is headed to the 2012 National Political Conventions. This year, Tampa has the privilege of hosting the Grand Old Party August 27 - 30, meanwhile the Queen City, Charlotte, NC will host the Democratic Party September 3 - 6.
While placards, straw boater hats, and political buttons remain delegate wardrobe de rigueur as much today as when we "Liked Ike," this isn't your grandma's political convention. Like buttons have a whole new meaning Ike couldn't begin to comprehend, and the conventions will no longer know the physical limitations of the past as attendance goes digital with Google+, Facebook, Twitter, and a host of new apps and services that enable social media hang outs, groups, and tweetups.
"Have Twitter, will travel?" Don't fret, two years in the making, the Host cities, national political committees, and the networks all anticipated the importance of going mobile at the conventions and have been working tirelessly to build out the regions' communications networks to ensure you don't miss a minute due to lag time or poor connectivity. Earlier this month, the Democratic Party released its mobile app that will allow users to watch the convention through live stream, navigate the city with friends, share photos, and keep a digital scrapbook. The Republican Party also just released its mobile app a few days ago leading up to kickoff.
And with all this digital connectivity, comes opportunity. A large, captive audience of politically enthusiastic consumers with their eyeballs glued to smartphones and tablets; as POLITICO reported recently, Tampa and Charlotte will see unprecedented levels of mobile advertising by outside groups, issue advocacy organizations, and local retailers and restaurants.
Even more important than the digital political explosion we will witness in two shorts weeks, will be what the candidates and their campaign surrogates and keynote speakers have to say about their visions for the future of an economy dependent on innovation. A National Political Convention is about formally voting a candidate to be the party's nominee for President - but in contemporary history, it is even more about setting the Party Platform, the principles that will define how the Party's candidate will govern if elected.
Vital to our industry, and the broader Internet economy will be the elevation and recognition of our issues to the National Conventions' platforms. How the future Administration intends to engage with Congress and global regulators on Internet policy like governance (ITU), privacy (at home and abroad), and infrastructure (broadband/wifi) is critical to the future health our industry and the broader marketplace to come.
Stay tuned for updates from Tampa and Charlotte…

Which other prospects could one day join Derek Stepan, Ryan McDonagh and the rest of the young Rangers on Broadway?
Blueshirt Bulletin will be tracking the progress of the next wave of youngsters as they compete and develop this season in the Canadian junior leagues, college and abroad.
Below is a compilation of scouting reports, buzz and analysis by scouts and hockey experts on Jason Missiaen.
We'll update this as the season unfolds with the latest news at the very bottom of this post.
Jason Missiaen
Drafted: 2008 (4th , 116th overall, by the Montreal Canadiens)
Pos: G
Catches: L
Birthday: 4/25/90
Team: (2006-2010) Peterborough Petes, OHL, (2010-2011) Baie-Comeau Drakkar, QMJHL
2009-2010 stats: 27W, 29L, 3T, 1SOL, .901 SV%, 3.68 GAA
2010-2011 stats: 10W, 33L, 8T, 1SOL, .893 SV%, 3.33 GAA
Rangers.com Profile >
Scouting report entering the season from Blueshirt Bulletin staff writer and author of The Prospect Park, Jess Rubenstein:
"The big thing on Missiaen is just that he is big at 6'8 and most scouts see him more as a "fun" project for Ranger goalie coach Benoit Allaire. You can not teach size which is what Missiaen has but that size is also we fear going to paint a very misleading picture of Missiaen for those seeing him for the first time. Because of his size, to the average fan Missiaen is going to appear clumsy and awkward for a kid just a couple of months past his 21st birthday. He has a 3 year deal with the Rangers which gives Allaire that much time to see if he can turn him into a real goalie prospect. Right now we project Missiaen at best as a member of the ECHL Greenville Road Warriors as we seriously can not see him beating out Chad Johnson or Cam Talbot for a spot with the CT Whale." (8/5/11)
What they're saying:
Rollie Melanson, Canadiens Goaltending Coach (9/17/08)– "For a big man, Jason is quite athletic"…"Size is a bonus, obviously, but he moves around like a small man. The biggest thing we've been working on is turning his feet, getting himself in position and allowing his size to work."
The Goalie Guild (3/23/11) – "At just 20 years of age, Missiaen is the epitome of a raw-skilled prospect. Because he has such a large frame, he's often considered as a cumbersome, awkward goaltender that struggles to move in a fluid and efficient manner. From the few times I have seen him play, I feel he clearly has potential due to his size, but will have to work very hard to improve his foot speed and overall mechanics if he expects to have a successful pro career."
Dan David, '20 in 20' Prospects Series (6/20/11)– "Perhaps the most impressive thing about Missiaen is the number of nights in which he was named the game's No. 1 Star despite being on the losing side of the scoresheet. That run started on Oct. 8, when he made 28 saves and was the No. 1 star of a 3-2 shootout loss at Quebec, one of the league's powerhouse teams. He was a No. 1 star again three weeks later on Oct. 29 when he stopped 32 shots in a 4-3 shootout loss to Montreal, another league juggernaut."
"A 30-save night was the norm, not the exception, for Missiaen, who closed out his season in typical fashion with 34 stops and No. 1 star honors in a 3-2 overtime loss to Quebec."
"Now 21, Missiaen is a goalie who has truly improved year by year. Ranked 23rd among North American goalies in his draft year, he was drafted by Montreal but did not get a chance to sign with the Habs despite save percentages of .904 and .901 in his two seasons after the draft."
Gordie Clark, Rangers' Director, Player Personnel (6/20/11)– "He was able to keep a young, weaker team competitive and in a lot of games. So maybe the win-loss column wasn't that good, but as far as having the ability to keep his team in a game, he was very good at that."
Nick Perri, SNYRANGERSBLOG (9/6/11) – "Missiaen uses his size to his advantage in goal, and he is extremely hard to beat high on the glove or blocker side. He is known for using his stick often to knock away the puck, and he is daunting to opposing forwards one-on-one. Scouts agree that his CHL statistics are misleading, and that the former Peterborough Pete has a lot of upside and potential. Rangers' goalie coach Benoit Allaire is a fan of Missiaen, and he will likely work with the young netminder throughout New York's training camp to prepare him for Connecticut's."
More on Jason Missiaen at Blueshirt Bulletin >
(11/15/11) Hockey's Future—"After he toiled between the pipes for four years in the CHL (playing in both the OHL and the QMJHL). Missiaen joined the ECHL Greenville Road Warriors this fall. Currently serving in a backup role to former Philadelphia Flyers prospect Nic Riopel, Missiaen is expected to have a long development curve."
(12/28/11) Missiaen called up to the AHL by the Connecticut Whale.

Comments about Black Diamond 50 Caliber Backpack:
I wanted a cragging pack that would really carry what I bring without unnecessary extras. I tried three others but they didn't have room for a rack, rope and tarp, harness, food, 10 essentials, water, helmet, shoes...without strapping things to the outside. They also had tons of pockets and even pockets in pockets, which are just more places I needed to search to find something. But this is just right! The heavy duty bottom means it's not going to fall apart. I took it on a couple multi-pitch climbs; no worries about the adequacy of the handles or wear from abrasion, and, like I said no unnecessary straps or pockets.
Comments about Black Diamond 50 Caliber Backpack:
I wanted something a little roomier for those cragging days when we move quickly between routes and just need to be able to toss in gear without needing to pack too carefully. The fabric is thicker and sturdy, and the pack has a tough haul-bag bottom, so it can handle getting tossed on the ground and other generally rough treatment. It is heavier than BD's "backcountry" packs (Speed 55 et al) and does not carry all that well (a bit sloppy), so I don't use it on long approaches and/or routes where I'll be carrying the pack. I think BD has other packs that are better for this purpose. But on the whole this thing is roomy and bombproof - plenty of space for rope, water, helmet, lunch, layers, a couple pairs of shoes ... no need to strap stuff on the outside.
Comments about Black Diamond 50 Caliber Backpack:
So far, I love this pack. I was able to stuff a double rack of c4/x4's .2 up to #3 plus a single #4, two 60m ropes, harness, shoes, chalk, snacks, light layer and headlamp in this puppy and it was pretty darn comfortable. If you need bells and whistles, look elsewhere. If you just need a rugged pack to haul gear around, this is it.
Comments about Black Diamond 50 Caliber Backpack:
The 50 Caliber is an awesome pack for mountaineering. While not the lightest or most sophisticated pack in that size range, it is exceptionally durable and offers unique usability features like the stand-up haul bag style bottom which is a wonderful thing when loading the pack and it stands up nicely when loaded. For me, the 50 Cal is too much pack to use as a crag pack, but it is perfect for longer trips, like the Grand Teton, where I used it a few weeks ago, and three or four day jaunts in the Alps. I tend to fill a pack regardless of the size so the 50 Cal keeps me down to a load that is much more managable, even when we push the capacity by adding a couple 3rd party accessory side pockets. It is practically bullet proof - unless you're actually shooting at it with a 50 cal - and seems like it would hold up reasonably well to light hauling. It carries very comfortably and I would definitely recommend this pack. It might be the perfect crag pack for a guide who normally carries more gear or extra ropes. In fact, it was recommended to me by a friend who is a climbing guide. The only con to this pack is that the compression straps are too far apart to fit 3rd party accessory pockets very well (and BD does not produce add on pockets for it).
- Abrasion Resistant
- Easy To Load
- Good Padding
- Holds a Lot of Gear
- Water Resistant
Best Uses
- Rock Climbing
Comments about Black Diamond 50 Caliber Backpack:
A perfect climbing pack for those that actually use their gear and expect it to last! Fits all your camalots and other bulky trad climbing gear (or bolting gear ;) and carries very comfortably. The 'stand up' feature is really nice too......Great price.......great pack!

The Lockwood Civic Center will be a hot spot for the International Seaway Festival this weekend with the return of the annual Wine-n-Craft Show and Farmers Market.
Last years show attracted more than 1,000 people over the course of the two days with nearly 50 vendors on hand offering their wares and produce.
The two-day event is slated for Saturday and Sunday starting at 10 a.m. both days. Along with a wide variety of arts and crafts created by local artisans, this summer marks the second year that visitors to the show will be able to sample and purchase wines produced by northern New York wineries. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables will also be featured.
Were always looking for different vendors and for ways to attract more people. The response to having the wineries last year was very positive from both the buyers and the sellers and hopefully, thats going to be the case again this year, noted show organizer Michele Morrison.
Since its start, the Seaway Festival Wine-n-Craft Show and Farmers Market has been a popular attraction. Each year the number of vendors has increased offering a wider range of items for sale. Among the hand-made crafts available are blankets, jewelry, clothing, wood furniture and ceramics as well as various novelty items.
As of this past Sunday, a total of 46 vendors had signed up for this years show which will run from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturday and from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. the following day.
According to Morrison, there are still a limited number of spaces available for rent. The cost of securing a 10 x 10 space is $40 for the two days. Half spaces are also available at $20 for both days. Tables can be rented for $5 each. A limited number of spaces have access to electrical outlets. Vendors are asked to bring their own chairs. All vendors must have a New York State Tax License ID number and are responsible for collection of sales tax.
Set-up for the show is slated for Friday from 5-7 p.m.
Among the local crafters expected to be on hand are; Mary Beaudoin (pillows, aprons), Steve Brooks (The Country Shed, woodworking), Ruth Campbell (placemats, table runners), Mel Cole (cross-stitching), Linda Cota (rag dolls, sock monkeys), Mary Deloney (The Fun Shop, novelties), Down by the River Crafts (fishing lure jewelry), Donna Garcia (Thirty-One Gifts), Delores Gladding, K. Chad Graham (soaps and skin products), Honey Hill (hand-painted tiles, slate, china, jewelry), Penny Hoadley (afghans, clothespin bags), Chris Lalone (wooden crafts), Andy Maslin, Valerie Mathews (jewlery), Lori Mitchell, Michele Morrison (fleece, crochet, ceramics), Jennifer Pickman (Eye Candy, jewelry), Mary Romeo (aprons, doll clothes), Linda Ross (Fabulous Food by Linda, jewelry), William Russell (lamps, collectibles), Alain St. Pierre (Goof-ballz, mittens, fish art), Beverly Schwardfigure (baby items), Smalltown Crafts (dolls, jewelry, placemats), Tammy Smith (knitted, crocheted items, hand-painted wood), Margaret Tiernan (wall-hangings, placemats, pillows), T-n-T Jewelry, Two Mama Birds (jewelry) and Gail Whitmarsh (stretch dresses).
Wineries offering samples and sales of their wines include; River Myst Winery, Americana Vineyards and Winery and Fudge, Thousand Islands Winery, Tug Hill Vineyards and Otter Creek.
Offering local food products will be Grasse River B Ranch (artisan cheese), Lee Mathews (maple syrup), Steves Roadside Stand and C.L. Cook Farms (pork, lamb, poultry, vegetables).
Miscellaneous vendors include Diane Burns and Matt Warner (body contouring wraps), Cultivating Healthy Communities, Crystal Krepeal and Elizabeth Peahey (Scentsy) while sketch artist Nicki Ryan will be on hand to draw caricatures.
For shoppers with a more immediate appetite, Christine Hoffman (The Spicy Wench) and Kim Sherman (Kims Cheesecake on a Stick) will be selling their unique snack items and Mike Lightfoot will have a concession stand set up in the parking lot.
We definitely have a lot of variety again this year. Whether people are looking to buy something for themselves or as a gift for someone else, theres a little something for everyone, stated Morrison.
Its also a great way to get out and enjoy a Seaway Festival event, she added.
For more information or to reserve a spot, please contact Morrison at (315) 393-9274 or online at email@example.com.

"It's the diversity (of The American Legion). It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat, you're a Republican, you're independent, what your skin color is, what your religion is. They still work together for what they think is right for the organization."
The military kept Terry Woodburn from a future he's not completely sure would have worked out. And for 42 years, The American Legion has given him opportunities to continue to serve his nation and fellow veterans alike.
A member of Post 32 in Springfield, Ill., Woodburn says that joining the Army in 1966 changed his life. "It was good for me to go in when I did," he says. "I'm not sure, actually, what path I'd have been on had I not gone in the Army when I did."
Woodburn served in the Army until 1972 and spent more than 13 years in the Army Reserve – many of those as an instructor. Joining the Legion allowed him to continue his service through advocating for veterans, he says.
What matters most to him? "Working with VA and being able to have a chance to remind Congress (or VA) whenever possible – or whenever we need to – that they make certain promises, and they need to keep those."
A longtime motorcycle enthusiast, he has enjoyed watching The American Legion Riders grow. "I've been riding since 1967," he says. "When this came along, it was just wonderful. I've been on several (rides). It's afforded me one other way to reach out to the younger veteran, as well as the older veteran."

Great video Steve and Terry. For a long time the American Legion and the American Legion Riders had been in the back of my mind as an organization that I would some day "check out". After belonging to several different groups with several different agendas and never really feeling that brotherhood of comradery that one searches for as a Vietnam Veteran I joined the AL. Now as a Legionnaire and a member of the ALR and I am able to make community contributions in one manner or an other to help Veterans and their families as I would want them to help me. This is priceless to be part of this.
What a great Man, Was in the Reserves with him. face book name I veteran Helper sir.
As American Legion Auxiliary, Department of Illinois Executive Secretary it is an honor and a privilege to work with you Chief.
Terry, I enjoyed the article a lot! The video reminded me of my old friend and made me wish I had of been able to stay in the Reserves like you did. Glad to hear you did well. You even look good without hair!

Facing a dramatic decline in support for his party due to its continued, albeit half-hearted, support for the controversial European Union, U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron finally promised British subjects a referendum on whether or not to leave the EU — in five years. However, despite the tsunami of public opposition to the union, establishment figures from around the world, including the Obama administration, are using transparent fear-mongering tactics warning Britons to stick with the embattled super state or face dire consequences.
Still, with the liberty-minded U.K. Independence Party (UKIP) surging in opinion polls, thanks in large measure to its steadfast opposition to continued obedience to power-hungry "eurocrats" in Brussels, Cameron's Conservative Party has taken a serious beating, putting its reelection prospects in jeopardy. Of course, many Conservative Party political leaders have long supported withdrawal from the EU, but until very recently, Prime Minister Cameron had waffled on the issue of letting the people decide for themselves.
Indeed, despite the grandstanding, Cameron, who had already suggested a referendum before he came to power but later backtracked, says he still supports U.K. membership in the union, asking only that some of the powers usurped by the EU be repatriated to London to avoid a so-called "Brexit" — a British exit from the union. In the face of overwhelming pressure from across the nation, and even within his own party, however, Cameron finally decided to announce that, if he is reelected, Britons will get to vote on continued membership. First, though, he plans to seek concessions from Brussels.
"It is time for the British people to have their say. It is time for us to settle this question about Britain and Europe," Cameron said in a widely quoted speech, noting that his party would, in the meantime, work to renegotiate the terms of Britain's membership in the EU.
