Wikipedia is a collaboratively edited, multilingual, free-access, free content Internet encyclopedia
that is supported and hosted by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation. Volunteers worldwide collaboratively write Wikipedia's 30 million articles in 287 languages, including over 4.5 million in the English Wikipedia. Anyone who can access the site can edit almost any of its articles, which on the Internet comprise the largest and most popular general reference work. In February 2014, The New York Times reported that Wikipedia is ranked fifth globally among all websites stating, "With 18 billion page views and nearly 500 million unique visitors a month..., Wikipedia trails just Yahoo, Facebook, Microsoft and Google, the largest with 1.2 billion unique visitors."
Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger launched Wikipedia on January 15, 2001, the latter creating its name, a portmanteau of wiki (the name of a type of collaborative website, from the Hawaiian word for "quick")and encyclopedia.
Wikipedia's departure from the expert-driven style of encyclopedia-building and the presence of much unacademic content have received extensive attention in print media. In 2006, Time magazine recognized Wikipedia's participation in the rapid growth of online collaboration and interaction by millions of people around the world, in addition to YouTube, reddit, MySpace, and Facebook. Wikipedia has also become known as a news source because of the rapid update of articles related to breaking news.
The open nature of Wikipedia has led to various concerns, such as the quality of writing, vandalism and the accuracy of information. Some articles contain unverified or inconsistent information, though a 2005 investigation in Nature showed that the 42 science articles they compared came close to the level of accuracy of Encyclopædia Britannica and had a similar rate of "serious errors". Britannica replied that the study's methology and conclusions were flawed.The policies of Wikipedia combine verifiability and a neutral point of view.

Tuenti is a Spain-based, social networking service, that has been referred to as the "Spanish Facebook."
Though the name sounds similar to the English word twenty, it actually comes from "tu [id]enti[dad]," meaning "your identity." The service was targeted at the Spanish market, but since 2012 is growing globally.
Tuenti features many tools common to social-networking sites. It allows users to set up a profile, upload photos, link videos and connect with friends; recently a chat application has been added. Many other utilities, such as the ability to create events, are also offered. Unlike similar social networking sites which feature banner advertisements, Tuenti has opted out of these traditional forms of "noisy" and obstructive advertising.
Google Zeitgeist's 2009 listed Tuenti as the third fastest-rising global search. Google's 2008 Zeitgeist report listed Tuenti as the year's fourth fastest-rising global search term, and Alexa Internet ranks the site as the eighteenth most visited in Spain. It is currently estimated that there are more than 15 million users, making it the country's most popular social network. Zaryn Dentzel, founder and current CEO, stated that they intend to focus on Spanish users more before possibly expanding to other countries. The site targets users in specific regions to improve its click-through rates, which have reached as high as 40%.

France Telecom beat Etisalat to acquire Meditel stake.
October 1, 2010 8:44 by Reuters
Etisalat sees shrinking investment opportunities in Morocco after France Telecom beat it in the race to acquire a stake in local operator Meditel, a company executive was quoted as saying.
Etisalat had said it was interested in acquiring a stake in Meditel, Morocco's second-biggest telecoms operator, but France Telecom last week signed a deal to take a 40 percent share for 640 million euros ($840 million).
"After the Meditel deal, I believe investment opportunities in Morocco have shrunk compared to the past, especially as the three Moroccan telecom operators now have strategic partners," Morocco's al Watan weekly quoted Etisalat First Deputy Chairman Ahmed Ben Ali as saying.
Etisalat, based in the United Arab Emirates, has been expanding aggressively overseas after losing its monopoly in its home market. It is present in 18 markets globally, in Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Meditel competes in the Moroccan market with former monopoly Maroc Telecom , in which French group Vivendi owns a majority stake, and with Wana, in which Kuwaiti telecoms firm Zain has a minority share.

1814 50C MS68 NGC. O-103, R.1....Click the image to load the highest resolution version.
MS68 1814 Half Dollar, O-103
NGC. O-103, R.1. This available die pairing is recognized on
the obverse by star 7, which has one point at the juncture of the
upper and lower curls on Liberty's forehead. Most examples,
including the present one, show die clashing in obverse fields.
Multiple vertical die lines run down to the rim from below the
forward portion of the bust. On the reverse, a heavy defect ridge
or die line runs from the scroll beneath the initial E, downward to
the center of the left (facing) wing.
Marvelous Preservation and Toning
The half dollars of 1814 were produced in relatively large number for the time, some 1.04 million pieces. Those coins were produced using only eight obverse and nine reverse dies, combining to make nine known die marriages for the year. The dies were obviously pushed to the limits, and several varieties of 1814 are well-known for die clashes, breaks, die erosion, and the other ailments that overstressed dies can produce. The Overton reference notes that "the year 1814 produced some of the most severely clashed dies of the entire [Bust half] series."
The O-103 and O-108a varieties of the 1814 are the only two rated as R.1 or common, although others rank R.2, and only the O-106 is rare. In the case of this coin, however, the sheer commonness of the O-103 variety allows for the pure chance of a marvelous coin such as this to exist.
The mint luster, thick and frosted, displays abundantly evident through the toning. The centers are silver-gray, with a light accent of rose surrounded by cobalt-blue at the extreme margins on each side. As is the case for many 1814 half dollars, this piece is quite sharply struck (although, as the Overton reference points out, that sharp strike came at the expense of sharp die clashing when there was no intervening planchet). As demanded at this incredible grade level, there are no visible abrasions or adjustment marks, save for the aforementioned die clashing in the fields.(Registry values: N1) (NGC ID# 24F3, PCGS# 6105)

The Draped Bust Half Dollars of 1796-1797 by Jon Amato is the culmination of more than 10 years of research into the Draped Bust Small Eagle half dollar series, one of the most coveted type coins in American numismatics and one about which remarkably little has been written.
This work will be the premier reference for 1796-1797 half dollars for years to come. Institutions having an extensive numismatic library or coin cabinet will find it a valuable complement to their holdings, and catalogers charged with writing up specimens for auction can now have an indispensable source of background and pedigree information. Likewise, coin dealers seeking to purchase one or more '96 or '97 half dollars for a client or for inventory, and collectors who own, have owned, or desire to own one will want this important reference work for their libraries.

Make a Blue Cheese Steak Sandwich
Sink your teeth into a steak sandwich that gets an extra kick from blue cheese, onions and roasted tomatoes.
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus for rolls
1 Tbsp. hot sauce
6 cloves garlic
1 flank steak (about 3 pounds)
freshly ground black pepper
kosher salt
6 hero sandwich rolls
Roasted Tomatoes, recipe follows
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 medium red onions, sliced 1/3-inch thick
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 cup low sodium-canned chicken broth
Blue Cheese Sauce
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
1 cup mayonnaise or sour cream, or combination
1 lemon, zest finely grated
freshly ground black pepper
Mix the Worcestershire, olive oil, hot sauce and 5 cloves of chopped garlic in a large glass baking dish. Add the steak and swish around, turning until evenly coated. Marinate at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours, flipping the steak once or twice.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and when shimmering add the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally; until the onions are brown, about 8 minutes, and then stir in the garlic, salt, thyme and hot sauce. Cook until onions are tender, about 4 minutes more. Add the broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until all the chicken broth is gone, and then season with pepper. Set aside.
Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan with a medium to medium-high heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade and season 1 side with salt and pepper. Place seasoned side of the meat down on the grill. Cook the steak undisturbed for 5 minutes. Then rotate the meat about 90 degrees (don't turn it over) on the grill to make clear cross marks and grill another 2 minutes. Season the other side of the steak with salt and pepper and flip. Continue to grill until an instant-read thermometer registers 140 degrees for medium, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, mash the blue cheese in a bowl with the mayonnaise or sour cream, lemon zest, and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
Cut the rolls in half horizontally and brush the insides with olive oil. Grill until warm on each side, about 1 minute. Rub the toasted bread with the remaining clove of garlic.
Thinly slice the meat across the grain and assemble the sandwiches. Spread a few tablespoons of the blue cheese sauce on each sandwich, top with some of the steak, onions, roasted tomatoes and watercress. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Roasted Tomatoes
8 ripe plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 to 5 fresh thyme sprigs
4 cloves garlic, chopped

Harmonizing recreational fisheries and conservation objectives for aquatic biodiversity in inland waters
Abstract:The importance of recreational fisheries to local and national economies, and as a generator of immense social welfare throughout the developed world, is well established. Development in the sector and its interaction with non-fishery-related nature conservation objectives for aquatic biodiversity, however, have the potential to generate conflict. This article reviews the intersection between recreational fisheries and nature conservation goals for aquatic biodiversity with specific reference to inland waters in industrialized countries, and the principal management activities and constraints that can lead to conflicts. A SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analysis was used to review the issues facing sectoral development and identify options for future advancement of recreational fisheries to ameliorate potential conflicts with nature conservation goals. It is concluded that reconciliation of recreational fisheries and modern conservation perspectives is both possible and desirable, because many conservation problems also benefit fisheries quality. Angler buy-in to conservation is probable if (1) management scales are small, (2) threats to conservation originate from outside the fisheries sectors and (3) ecological awareness for the conservation problem is high. If these aspects are not present, reconciliation of recreational fisheries and nature conservation goals is less likely, risking both the aquatic biodiversity and the future of angling. To address these issues, enforcement of legislation and continued communication with angler communities is necessary, as well as development of integrated management policies that build on the instrumental values of aquatic biodiversity for recreational fisheries, while curtailing the more insidious threats to such biodiversity that originate directly from the recreational fisheries sector.
Keywords: SWOT analysis; angling; biocentrism; fisheries management; sustainability

FROM VOYA, Starred Review:
"King brilliantly combines teenage points of view and emotions with comic book excitement in this superbly composed tale of superheroes and super villains. Readers get to know each of the five teens through their distinctive voices and personalities and can easily follow their motivations as they struggle to make the impossible decision of how to use their newfound powers. There is nonstop action as the teens learn how to use their powers with and against their villain mentors that will keep readers engaged and excited throughout the book. This is an excellent addition to any library serving teens, as it will appeal to reluctant readers with its fast-paced action, and almost all teen readers will love the comic book feel of this book."
"[King's] teens are vivid, funny, and relatable, but their growth never comes at the expense of story or plot development. Add in descriptions of cool weaponry and superpowers, a healthy dose of clever one-liners and snappy dialogue, and plenty of chases and explosions, and you've got all the ingredients for a hit series that teens will love. King is definitely an author to watch."
"Here's a debut that will knock middle-grade superhero fans on their butts. In a fresh twist, five ordinary teens are recruited to learn superhuman powers—by the villains . . . By minimizing the numbing action scenes so common to this sort of book and focusing instead upon the interplay of the witty, appealing kids, King deepens the reader's experience by turning each character—yes, even the Torturer!—into more than the typical black-and-white placeholder . . . kids are going to gobble this up."
"With the Vindico characters' backstories, King grays the line between good and evil even further . . . he never loses his knack for humorous—and teen-friendly—dialogue, e.g., "If you turn a bunch of kids into supervillains, you can't expect them to follow the rules.""
Wesley King lives in suburban Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, where he spends most of his time in imagined universes of superpowered children, dying stars, and dystopian fantasy realms. This is his first novel.

In Westendorf v. West Coast Contractors of Nevada, Inc., the Ninth Circuit upheld the dismissal of a sexual harassment complaint, despite offensive comments made by plaintiff's supervisor and coworkers, including a request that she wear a maid's costume at work.
Jennifer Westendorf was a project manager assistant at West Coast Contractors (a construction contractor) for about five months. At the beginning of her employment, her supervisor (Dan Joslyn) called her tasks "girly work" and then apologized. Once per week, Westendorf worked in a trailer at a construction site where employee Patrick Ellis was stationed. Joslyn also supervised Ellis. Over the course of a few months, and on four or so occasions, Ellis made a few comments to Westendorf regarding the size of a coworker's breasts, women's use of tampons, and multiple orgasms. He also told her she needed to clean the trailer while wearing a French maid's costume and said "f*** you" to her several times. Joslyn participated in the discussion about a coworker's breasts and laughed at Ellis's jokes. After Westendorf complained about the behavior, she was terminated.
The court held that the alleged harassment was not severe or pervasive and thus could not support a sexual harassment claim, because there were only about a half dozen incidents (of the clearly sex or gender-based comments), all involving verbal comments, over a five-month period. Thus, the sexual harassment claim was dismissed, but her retaliation claim survived.
This case highlights a very important distinction between harassment and retaliation claims. Westendorf did not have enough evidence to support a harassment claim. Yet for a retaliation claim, she need only show protected activity (i.e., a good faith complaint about harassment, not that the conduct actually constituted actionable sexual harassment) and a causal connection between that activity and her eventual termination. This is a reminder for employers that retaliation claims can often survive even when the underlying harassment cannot be proven.
