Rumor Mill: Google to Buy Bebo
Posted February 7, 2008 4:58 pm by Jordan McCollum with 13 comments
TechCrunch speculates that there's a 51% chance that Google might buy Bebo—or maybe MySpace will snap up the smaller social networking company. Last year, it was Yahoo that was supposed to be making a $1B offer on Bebo. This year's guesses are similar—$1B to $1.5B.
TechCrunch explains that the move would almost double Google's social networking audience, with Orkut's millions of members worldwide plus Bebo's non-US English-speaking market. Erick Schonfeld also notes that MySpace could assure its worldwide dominance by buying the #1 social network in several English-speaking countries.
Bebo has an exclusive partnership with Yahoo for display and video advertising. They initially signed on to Google's OpenSocial, but soon also accepted Facebook's platform as well.
http://chasinggoogle.blogspot.com Mobile guy
Google already has Orkut, why would they need another one?
http://www.bracingyourbrand.com/ Rob Kingston
What on earth would a company do with two social networking companies? Combine them? Whoops… Orkut is sinking, everyone climb aboard Bebo.
http://www.wecando.biz Ian Hendry
Orkut is nowhere in most of the biggest social networking markets (in terms of %age of the population regualtly using such services). Buying Bebo gives them instant access to new markets.
http://www.wpromote.com/blog Mike Mothner
I agree that even though Google already owns the social networking company, Orkut, acquiring another one can only help them. If it allows them to more than double their share of the social networking market, considering how fast the popularity of social networking sites are growing, I believe it is a good move by Google.
http://www.jordankasteler.com/utah-seo-pro-blog/ Utah SEO
Is that their retaliation against a possible Y!/Microsoft deal? lol
http://www.winningponies.com/ Jason
Hmmm… Google seems to like social networks that are primarily foreign people… probably because the US social networks are a dime a dozen. I've never even checked out Bebo, so I can't speculate much on this one.
http://www.bracingyourbrand.com/ Rob Kingston
Now that I think about it, this will help them push open social, social graph and other innovations designed to combine social networks. Ultimately, I think that's the big picture that they've got in mind.
Once they have that, Google will create an open ground so they can beat everyone at the social networking game. It's their typical strategy.
http://www.gowfb.com GoWFB
Lots of takeovers/mergers in the pipeline it would seems. Wonder what will actually happen though.
http://payday-loans-i.com Paul Brain
What for google 2 social networks?
http://www.embassysuitespalmdesert.com Embassy Suit
Google is not doing that, every month some rumor with Bebo pops up. May be Bebo is searching buyer, unofficially making up these rumors. Google already has Orkut, DodgeBall etc. and could not make them profitable business.
http://www.globalrvtrader.com bhavik
what google will do with social network website….google is taking up lots of websites now a day..i also hear that google also making offer to take up yahoo..is it true ????
http://www.penisinsider.org PI
I agree that it is a good move, but is that price range realistic? It seems high, based on Bebo's footprint on the social network "scene".
http://www.penisamp.com da Amp!
I know people are weary of the length of Google's arm, and the depth of their control over various markets… but you gotta hand it to them – they just do things right.

Lakers' wrongs making things right

Imagine the scene. Out on a pier, I'm lying on the wooden beams over the low tide surf on the rocks below and I'm calling to my dog. Thankfully Oscar obliged and I made this photo as he walked towards me with his tongue half-hanging out of his mouth. There's Jacinta in the background, she's almost 9 months pregnant in this photo, but you probably can't see the bump in this small image!
Tag: Animals
Shih Tzu playing ball on the beach
Our pet Shih Tzu, Oscar with a tennis ball in his mouth on Garrettstown Beach a few weeks before Adam was born last April.
He loves running after the ball, but the poor little doggy is a bit lame right now. We took him to the vet who couldn't find anything wrong. This has happened before and he recovered so fingers crossed he gets better this time too.
The strange thing is, it only affects him when he's walking on pavements or roads. On grass he's almost fine, and at home you wouldn't know it from his running around! Dog psychology?
Cute little dog
A King Charles Spaniel with his owner in Paul Street, Cork a few months ago. I don't like seeing dogs in the city because it's so stressful for them but it was really quiet. Little fella looks worried though doesn't he?
The dog and his bone
Oscar, our pet Shih Tzu, pictured with a bone shaped biscuit treat. Actually he doesn't like them much. He prefers Markies, but they're bought now so he'll finish them!
Eye of the Shih Tzu
This is Oscar, our Shih Tzu. He has been a part of our family for just over a year now and he's very devoted to my wife Jacinta. He loves playing with me too, but I know who he'd save from a sinking ship!
We were worried what would happen when the baby came along, but Oscar has been great. For the most part he has ignored Adam, but if a stranger should lean over Adam and his mom then Oscar will be out to growl and sometimes bark! That would be great if there was any danger but it's almost always a friend or family so it's become an annoyance we need to look out for.
Poor Oscar doesn't get the same amount of attention as he did before baby but in general he behaves better, so that's a good thing! I think he got a little cocky and just a little too confident of his place in the family hierarchy.
The curious dog
While wandering about on St. Patrick's Day this year I spotted this adorable little dog. I got a few snaps and his owner didn't seem to mind. The doggy was more than happy at the attention and sniffed eagerly at my lens!
Donkey in the field
I almost made an ass of myself and forget to post a picture today! You'd be saying to yourselves, "He haw-lways posts a picture every day, where is today's one?"
Never fear, here it is and I've run out of donkey jokes so it's back to normal. Feel free to contribute in the comments however!
This donkey was snapped down in Kerry last September. We were driving back from Baile Na nGall (Bally David) when I spotted this donkey and a few horses in adjoining fields. I pulled over and ran across the busy bothaireen. Well, a Hi-ace and a tractor passed by..
More of the donkey to come!

THATS not a sentence you hear too often
THATS not a sentence you hear too often
"It was swamp gas."
Quarterback just needs to throw the ball a lot harder. Right on the numbers -- so it sticks!
I think it's a problem with the man in charge...later Jimmy was put on the SOCCER team...and they made him the GOALIE!!
YAAAAY!!! the best compliment I can get is when someone genuinely laughs at one of my jokes on paper *marries you*
hehe, glad I could bring you a laugh...I only just a week ago did my very first signing and was able to see people's reactions to my humor strips (Biff the Baby Puncher in particular) and their laughter made it very worthwhile It's like being a stand-up comedian but not knowing if people are really enjoying your comedy
I'm thinking a velcro ball and t-shirt will solve all his problems...
This guy certainly has.....A HANDFUL

A game in the "Panzer Grenader" series, this covers the late-war armored battles with Germany on the defensive.
From the AP website:
Road to Berlin is loaded with heavy gear, featuring 825 pieces.
The Germans get Royal Tiger tanks for the first time in the Panzer Grenadier series, plus giant lumbering vehicles like the Hunting Tiger with its 128mm gun and the Hunting Panther. There are the fast Hetzer tank destroyers, too. Road to Berlin has both regular army and Waffen SS pieces, including SS cavalry. There are also pieces for the German home-defense militia called out in the last days of the Thousand-Year Reich.
The Red Army of Workers and Peasants is also loaded with powerful weapons: The JS-1 and JS-2 heavy tanks lead the way, but there are also all sorts of vehicles not seen before by Panzer Grenadier fans: T-34/85, T-70 and KV-85 tanks; SU-76, SU-85, SU-100, SU-122, SU-152 and JSU-152 assault guns. There's also 122mm artillery for the first time, and Ba64 armored cars.
Returning to the Panzer Grenadier system are the Soviet Guards, the elite of the Soviet armed forces. They bring the modern weapons of 1944 and 1945 plus rocket launchers and a full array of ground forces. We first debuted these in Heroes of the Soviet Union, which will be retired when the last copies are sold, but this is a much fuller treatment.
Just as Eastern Front includes the Armata Romana, so does Road to Berlin bring the Royal Honvedseg, Hungary's army. The Hungarians have excellent cavalry and a number of Hungarian-made armored vehicles that are, well, less than excellent: Turan and Toldi tanks and Nimrod and Zrinyi assault guns.
As for playing surface, Road to Berlin features eight of the semi-rigid mapboards of the type found in Airborne and Eastern Front. These are new to players of the series, with art by Terry Moore Strickland.
And as will be true for all games in the series, there are plentiful replay opportunity: 75 scenarios drawn from the battles of 1944 and 1945 on the Eastern Front.
This game is part of the Panzer Grenadier series

Portable Dog Cages
posted 6 years ago
We bought two of these portable pens and connected them together in about an hour. Each was 8 panels of 24" x 30". Connecting them together gave us a very roomy pen for the two dogs to play safely. Since we are having continous work done and the fencing is taken down by the workers, this was our solutionto the problem of how to let the dogs outside safely. They are very happy watching the workers do their thing. The pen is covered with a coating that keeps it from rusting. The cost was very reasonable also. The pen also has a gate that opens easily and also closes safely to keep the dogs inside.
Pros: Very easy set up and take down
Cons: none that I could think of

Great for travel
posted 6 years ago
This a great idea for travelers. It's lightweight and stores very nicely in our camper. It's easy to assemble. Though I would never leave it unattended in the campground, it is a great place for the pup to relax off the leash while I read.
Pros: Easy to set up
Cons: None

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 22 — Two ex-directors were sentenced to lengthy jail tems for committing criminal breach of trust (CBT) involving RM26 million four years ago today.
Judge Datuk Jagjit Singh of the Sessions Court here passed a 12-year jail sentence to Singaporean Gordon Toh Chun Toh, 60. Toh has to pay a fine of RM1 million or serve an additional two years in jail, Bernama Online reported.
The other ex-director from Multi-Code Industries Sdn Bhd, Datuk Abul Hassan Mohamed Rashid, 68, was given a six-year term in prison
However both men will remain free since the defence's application for a stay of execution of the jail sentence was granted, pending an appeal to the High Court. Toh was set free with a bail set at RM1 million in one surety and Abul Hassan half the amount but with two sureties.
They were guilty of the alternative charge of committing CBT involving RM26,045,473.94 from Multi-Code Industries at Suite 11.2B, Level 11, Menara Pelangi, No 2, Jalan Kuning, Taman Pelangi, Johor Baharu between March 23 and 28, 2007.
They were successfully prosecuted under Section 409 of the Penal Code.
Jagjit decided after the defence could not muster reasonable doubt on the prosecution's case.
The judge said that the white collar crime was committed very meticulously, with Toh being the mastermind. He hoped the sentence imposed would be a deterrence to other potential offenders.
Joshua Kevin represented Toh, with Ng Aik Guan for Abul Hassan.
Toh informed he court he had cancer and needed RM37,000 for treatment, while Abul Hassan stated he had heart problems.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Shanti Geoffray from the Securities Commission (SC) said punishment must meet the severity of the offence and the public's interest.

When it comes to real estate, Linda Mazzariello's mission is peace of mind.
A lifelong Capital District resident and agent with Realty USA, Mazzariello went the real estate route five years ago when she retired from her former job with the government.
"After about two years of retirement, I was a little bored. How much gardening and lunching can you do? "I decided I wanted to do something that meant something … something that I wanted to get up and do everyday," Mazzariello said.
She knew she always loved the real estate world.
"My grandfather used to tell us a story … he came over on the boat from Italy. He didn't speak English, but always said to buy real estate. He has 10 children, and he gave each one of those children $5,000 to buy their first home. He always told us that story, and it must have resonated with me somehow," Mazzariello said.
Mazzariello said there is a house for everyone and everyone for a house.
"I knew I wanted to help other people realize their home ownership dreams," she said.
Right off the bat, Mazzariello knew the senior population was a group she wanted to help and became designated as a senior real estate specialist (SRES) trained to work with people over the age of 50.
"It recognizes that I am qualified and specially trained in the special needs that seniors have," she said. "I can assist in housing, the sale of a home, the purchase of a home, and I have different avenues that I can explore with them."
As an SRES realtor, Mazzariello will organize any types of services her clients need such as help with estate sales, contacting financial advisers, suggesting housing alternatives or finding assistance in packing and moving of belongings.
"I can help navigate the moving process, make referrals to attorneys, home inspectors and other moving related companies," she said. "Simple things like hooking them up with lawyers or being a local community resource — it makes me happy," Mazzariello said. "They feel like they are not alone and someone does care."

Oklahoma City Thunder waive Orton, Rautins and Thompson, keep Liggins
The Thunder got down to its final 15-man roster Saturday by waiving center Daniel Orton, guard Andy Rautins and forward Hollis Thompson.
"All three of them were very good," coach Scott Brooks said. "They really gave us a great showing in camp. They made my decision very tough. It's not easy to do. Obviously, we couldn't keep 18 guys. … I would not be surprised if they were all back in the NBA soon. They were all good in their own way and they all brought something very unique to the table."
Guard DeAndre Liggins filled the lone available roster spot and joins rookie forward Perry Jones III and free agent center Hasheem Thabeet as the only newcomers to this year's team, which opens the regular season Thursday at San Antonio.
"With DeAndre, we felt that his size, his athleticism, his defensive toughness is something we are intrigued with and we like," Brooks said of the 6-foot-6, 209-pound Kentucky product, who spent last season with the Orlando Magic. "He brought it every day in practice. Every game we threw him in there, he made something happen. He's a rebounder, he's a defender and he plays with a lot of toughness."
The 22-year-old Orton, who starred at Bishop McGuinness High School and spent two seasons with the Magic, appeared in one preseason contest for the Thunder, finishing with 13 points (5 for 6 from the field) and three rebounds in 19 minutes.
"There's always a chance," Brooks said when asked if he feared another NBA team acquiring the 6-foot-10, 255-pound Orton. "They're in this position because they're right there to be an NBA player. … He's a talented guy with great hands, a big who can play."
Rautins played in four games and averaged 7.0 points, 1.3 rebounds and 11.5 minutes. Thompson was in three games and averaged 2.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 9.7 minutes.

He's right, either way you slice it, you are dealing with people.
The answer to the poster's original questions are best left to a consultant
that can
A) Interview for the basic qualifiers (what do you want to do? What
services will you offer? What protocols...)
B) Examine the policies, processes and procedures for gap analysis.
C) Make a recommendation as to how best to proceed.
D) Provide a quote.
E) Perform and guarantee their work.
F) Provide an audit function (either internal or 3rd party) for their work.

What is insane about it ?
Hiring an external company ?
I don't consider that to be insane, it's a common thing to do, external
security professionals with proper security checks are a good resource
for this type of work. Having it done internally may be a good idea, but
generally someone working in the security industry has had previous
security checking and then they will go through the client organisations
security check procedure before being tasked to the project. This means
they will have had more checks than the permanent employees. External
companies like this work on reputation as their main asset, based on the
skills and integrity of their consultants.
As long as the client organisation verifies the reputation and performs
security checks they will be hiring people with a decent potential to be
trustworthy, as mush as, if not more than, their current employees.
(DISCLAIMER: I am an external contractor working in situations very much
like this.)

BIG Wins Competition for Museum of the Human Body in Montpellier, France
Monday, December 2, 2013
Nick Miller.
A team led by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) has won an international design completion for the new Museum of the Human Body in Montpellier, France. Recalling the forms of some of BIG's other recent projects, most notably Blaavard Bunker Museum in Varde, Denmark (which has just received funding to move forward) and the 200-acre EuropaCity mega-development outside Paris, the 84,000 square foot museum will rise from the surrounding landscape with grass-capped roofs, and a seemingly continuous, curving glass façade.
Bjarke Ingels Reinvents the Bridge as a Mountain of Landscaped Trails
Tuesday, October 29, 2013
Stela Rahman.
The Swedish Transport Administration launched a conceptual design competition in 2011 for a new bridge in Skuru, Sweden. The competition received great national and international response, including one fanciful proposal by Danish firm, Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG). The competition brief stated that the new bridge should adhere to high aesthetic standards and coincide with the existing bridge and the surrounding valuable cultural and natural landscape. Ingels deploys his characteristic hedonistic sustainability to bring nature onto the bridge itself.

Bjarke Ingels and Michael Van Valkenburgh are teaming up to design Pier 6 at the southern end of Brooklyn Bridge Park. As AN reported, the pier will feature a pastoral landscape terminated by a triangular viewing pavilion called the Mantaray. The landscape and viewing platform will offer unmatched views of the Manhattan skyline and accommodate special events like concerts. Take a look at the gallery of renderings below or read more about the project here.
Rem Koolhaas Knocks out Bjarke Ingels in Final Round of Miami Beach Convention Center Competition
Thursday, July 18, 2013
Nicole Anderson.
After months of fierce rivalry and contentious one-upping, Rem Koolhaas' OMA has beat out Bjarke Ingels (BIG) in the competition for the Miami Beach Convention Center commission. At times, it appeared as if BIG was in the lead, but OMA crept up and ultimately took home the prize.
OMA has proposed a $600 million overhaul of the 52-acre convention center to build a more integrated facility in addition to tacking on more open space and park land. This plan calls for reconfiguring the layout of the convention center to provide enhanced access to Lincoln Road, green space, and existing hotel on the beach.
Unveiled> Bjarke Ingels' New Museum Shows Architecture Is Just One Giant LEGO Set
Friday, June 14, 2013
Amanda Gruen.
Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and LEGO have unveiled plans for the LEGO House, an experience and education museum to be built in Billund, Denmark, LEGO's birthplace. Visitors will enter a building resembling giant LEGO stacked blocks. The LEGO-block building concept embodies the tenants of LEGO play: stimulated learning and interactive thinking. Visitors can interact with the museum by walking around, under, and over, just as they would if they were playing with the bricks. Construction is projected to begin next year.
Eavesdrop> Bjarke Ingels Joins Heavy Hitters Vying for Santa Monica Project
Friday, May 24, 2013
The Editors.
One of the few regions that superstar Bjarke Ingels has yet to invade is Southern California, and he's made it clear that he wants that to change. It just might, soon. Ingels, we hear from an unnamed source, has been added to one of the teams competing to design the city's 4th and Arizona mixed use project in Santa Monica, a city experiencing the beginnings of a building boom. They'll replace RTKL on a team that also includes local firms Koning Eizenberg and Rios Clementi Hale. So now this shortlist is the most starchitect-heavy of any in the region, including not just BIG, but OMA with VTBS and Robert A.M. Stern with Brooks + Scarpa. In addition to a building that could reach up to 130 feet, the RFP calls for a "programmable gathering space that adds to the community's civic life with public gatherings and seasonal activities." Currently, the city hosts an ice skating rink on the site in the winters. According to the RFP a winner is expected to be chosen by Santa Monica's city council by this August. Stay tuned.
BIG Groundbreaking on Faroe Islands
Thursday, April 25, 2013
Nick Miller.
The renderings just keep coming. And, after a recent groundbreaking, a building will too. With projects on their way in New York, Phoenix, Washington, D.C., Miami, Paris, Copenhagen,and Tianjin, China, Bjarke Ingels has just broken ground again, this time on the Faroe Islands off the coast of Denmark, where, in typical BIG fashion, he will lay down the largest building on the small, self-governing archipelago. Located on a hillside outside the capital-town of Torshavn, the new Marknagil Education Center will gather three of the country's educational institutions under one roof.
Unveiled> Bjarke Ingels Designs an Entire City Covered in Green Roofs Near Paris
Monday, April 22, 2013
Nick Miller.
The Bjarke Ingels Group, along with Tess, Transsolar, Base, Transitec, and Michel Forgue, have revealed their winning design for EuropaCity, a 200-acre urban cultural and commercial destination located between Paris and Roissy. Combining the forms of a dense European city with an open landscape, EuropaCity is set to be a retail, cultural, and leisure city of unprecedented scale. Modeled on the European urban experience and equipped with cutting edge green technologies, the development will serve as a retail and cultural hub for the region as well as a laboratory and showcase for sustainable design.

Undocumented students face hurdles in getting into college
Published: Monday, January 2, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 1, 2006 at 11:00 p.m.
HOMESTEAD, Fla. - When Fabiola Guevara graduated from South Dade Senior High School in June, 11 years after her mother fled with her from Mexico, she had nearly a perfect 4.0 grade point average.
Her dream was to enroll in a state university nursing program, but she didn't even apply. Guevara couldn't afford higher education.
Like thousands of other illegal immigrant students, Guevara was ineligible for college financial aid.
And it would cost triple what legal Florida residents pay, impossible on her mother's housekeeper wages, to attend a public university because undocumented students don't qualify for in-state tuition discounts.
"When I started high school, it never hit me that when I graduated, I had no place to go," said Guevara, who is 17. "I studied here all my life. What am I supposed to do with the rest of my life? Work as a housekeeper? Pick beans in the fields?"
Federal law prohibits illegal immigrant students from receiving government-backed loans and grants to attend college.
The law, which was part of 1996 immigration reforms, also discourages states from providing these students with in-state tuition rates at public colleges and universities.
But lawmakers in Congress have proposed legislation to help students like Guevara.

The Deloitte authored report Shaping Future Cities: Designing Western Sydney was endorsed and launched by the NSW Premier, the Hon Mike Baird MP, at Rosehill Gardens in Parramatta in December 2015. This economic blueprint examines Western Sydney's comparative strengths and provides a roadmap to help businesses, communities and local councils capitalise on these strengths at a time when Western Sydney is booming.
The Steering Committee, comprised of business and government leaders, including the Hon. Stuart Ayres, MP, will guide and support the Champions as they lead the blueprint's 25 strategies and progress implementation of associated recommendations throughout 2016.
The impact of the blueprint is already delivering positive results, with a number of recommendations being put into effect, including the establishment of a Western Sydney University campus at Olympic Park. The NSW Government's decision to locate the Greater Sydney Commission (GSC) in Parramatta, and move the Department of Education there, highlights its commitment to bringing jobs to the West. The importance of connectivity has also been recognised through the NSW Government's recent announcement around the Parramatta Light Rail, with its commitment to implement this new infrastructure through value sharing further demonstrating its backing of the Designing Western Sydney blueprint.
"It's fantastic to see such progress at this early stage and with the Steering Committee meeting and being connected with the Champions for the first time today, we will start to see much more," said Danny Rezek, Deloitte Western Sydney Managing Partner and co-author of the blueprint.
"With the calibre of leaders we are working with and their unwavering commitment to delivering the blueprint recommendations, we are excited about achieving the vision we have set out for Western Sydney," he went on to say.
The Steering Committee will meet monthly, with Champions regularly reporting on progress against the 25 strategies. The Steering Committee itself will provide updates to the now up and running Greater Sydney Commission, led by Chief Commissioner and Western Sydney advocate Lucy Turnbull, AO, as well as the heads of several key State Government Agencies.
Deloitte partner and blueprint author, Theo Psychogios, said: "We will continue to involve our 400+ stakeholders throughout the year and share our progress. But the real measure of success will be our annual report card, which will evaluate progress against the delivery of the blueprint recommendations and be shared with the community at the end of the year.
"Accountability is key to our success in delivering jobs for Western Sydney and enabling the region to become the NSW economic powerhouse it has the potential to be. We have the backing of the NSW Government and importantly the support of the NSW Premier and Minister Ayres, as demonstrated by their presence at the launch of the blueprint and Minister Ayres' ongoing commitment to his role on the Steering Committee.
"The Steering Committee and Champions are not simply figureheads but are on the ground, working together and with business, government and the community to build platforms for jobs growth, to create jobs and to connect local people with these jobs.
"We're keen to build on the current momentum and early successes. Following today's initial meeting and leadership workshop we look forward to making further announcements on progress around areas including healthcare and education, tourism and skills development, so watch this space," commented Psychogios.
As we stand today, we're over $22M towards our target, we've started the construction, and we're confident of occupying the new House in 18 months or so. In the meantime however, we're still in our current House and given the fact that it's now over 20 years old and accommodates hundreds and hundreds of people each year, maintenance and upkeep is one of our key daily challenges.
We want to provide the very best for the families staying with us. It's our Home and we're proud of it. Maybe you can help us?
Can I ask you to think about whether you have any time (and skills) to help us in this area, or maybe you know someone who would love to help us out if only they were asked? Maybe you're a Tradie and can spare a couple of hours every so often to help us when things do go wrong.
Please do get in touch if this is the case.

I'm sure that you share with me the immense sense of pride in what we have achieved together to date. To have the NSW Premier, the Hon. Mike Baird MP, formally launching the economic blueprint with an endorsement from his Government that this blueprint is not only important in achieving the future economic and social success of Western Sydney, but also as the engine room of Sydney and NSW's success, was a true reflection of what we can achieve by working together as a region.
i hope you had an opportunity to sign the Charter at the launch. If you didn't have a chance to, and would like to add your name to the charter, please review the charter by clicking here and send a scanned copy with your signature attached to firstname.lastname@example.com.
How can you help?
As you are no doubt aware, 200,000 great new jobs will not suddenly materialise in Western Sydney. And the hard work of creating the conditions and opportunities to achieve this ambitious goal starts in earnest from today!
Deloitte is proud to continue to lead the conversations and bring stakeholders across Western Sydney together to discuss the issues and formulate the strategies to achieve our goals. The 25 strategies featured in the blueprint provide a fantastic structure to address the opportunities that we have identified over the past few months of discussion within our workshops, focus groups and summits. Please contact me or any Deloitte Partner if you are interested in participating in activities focused on any of the 25 strategic recommendations
I encourage you to maintain the conversation with Deloitte and our Shaping Future Cities: Designing Western Sydney community. Please click here to access some suggested Tweets that you can share with your social media networks.

A new Medical Technologies and Pharmaceuticals Growth Centre has been launched to help the sector improve productivity and competitiveness.
Industry Growth Centres are not-for-profit organisations that work with their industry to develop strategies to:
The Medical Technologies and Pharmaceuticals Growth Centre will be led by a small group of industry experts. It will work with the sector, CSIRO, Cooperative Research Centres, universities and other research institutes to encourage research outcomes that meet the needs of the sector.
The Medical Technologies and Pharmaceuticals Growth Centre is part of the Industry Growth Centres Initiative.
The Food and Agribusiness Growth Centre and Mining Equipment, Technology and Services Growth Centre are now operating.
The Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre has been approved and will begin operating shortly.
Growth Centres are also being established for the sectors of:
Seven million dollars has been allocated to the Reserve for the completion of community projects, over and above Council's regular works program. The funds have been allocated from the proceeds of the sale of former Council land on Victoria Road.
"Ensuring that these funds are spent on improvements in our suburbs is an important investment in our community and it will help make Parramatta a more liveable and loveable city for all of its residents," Lord Mayor of Parramatta Cr Paul Garrard said.
After consultation between Councillors and Council staff, a number of projects have been identified in each of Parramatta's five wards. Among the projects endorsed by Council is the upgrade of facilities at Lake Parramatta, upgrades at a number of parks and reserves, infrastructure to improve pedestrian safety, and footpath improvements in various locations.
The largest projects to be undertaken will be the construction of a Regional Playground at Fred Spurway Reserve, Carlingford and additional works at Boronia Park, Epping.
"These projects have all been identified as being of benefit to the wider community and will provide the people of Parramatta with access to first-rate facilities to enjoy across our suburbs," Cr Garrard said.
"As we build Australia's next great city here in Parramatta, Council is also focussed on the needs of our wider community. We have dedicated 2016 as the year of 'Our Community, the People We Serve', and by targeting investment in the areas where people live we can foster a stronger sense of 'neighbourhood' in our city and increase people's involvement in their local communities."
The works will now be individually assessed by Council and completed on a project by project basis.

Council has now finalised the purchase of four sites along Phillip Street – the historic Willow Grove, St Georges Terrace and other commercial buildings – at a total cost of $35.5 million. The acquisitions open the way for Council to improve the CBD's connection to Parramatta River.
"These purchases will allow Council to provide a critical civic link within the City from Parramatta Square through to Riverbank and the foreshore. It allows Council to be more flexible in its activation and rejuvenation of a core precinct in our CBD," Lord Mayor of Parramatta Cr Paul Garrard said.
"Prudent negotiations mean Council was able to achieve the best possible purchase prices in a competitive market in order to achieve its vision for Riverbank. Council is making a smart investment in the River Strategy that will deliver cultural and social benefits and another economic injection into the city.
"Historic Willow Grove will be included in our plans to activate the Riverbank precinct which is a crucial part of Council's River Strategy adopted earlier this year."
Council has also resumed control of the former David Jones car park site, which together with the four key purchases will create an 18,000sq m foreshore site that will become a lively mixed-used precinct featuring a variety of social, cultural and community assets as well as apartments.
The River Strategy sets out plans to revitalise the foreshore between Gasworks Bridge and Rings Bridge, O'Connell Street. New and improved spaces will be created for walking, cycling, picnicking, outdoor dining and hosting major events such as New Year's Eve and Loy Krathong.
The $200 million River Strategy project will be completed in stages over a 20-year timeframe with funding from a range of sources including Council, the State Government and the private sector.
"These acquisitions are just another example of Council's commitment to moving forward with its vision for Parramatta as Australia's Next Great City," Cr Garrard said.
"The development of the $2 billion Parramatta Square and our visionary River Strategy will ensure our City remains vibrant while celebrating our unique cultural, historical and economic credentials."
A blueprint for the Riverbank is currently being considered by Council.

Global Exchange
We live and work in an increasingly connected world. Margaret Spellings, the U.S. secretary of education, underscored academia's disappearing borders prior to Inter-national Education Week 2006. "More than ever, success in the world depends on what you know, not where you live," she said. "Technology has leveled the playing field and flattened the world. It has [shown] the value of math, science, and other subjects in high demand across the globe. And it has illustrated the importance of foreign languages in communicating and forming partnerships with citizens from other cultures and countries."
Many professors travel overseas to teach, conduct research, or attend international conferences. Even from the vantage point of America's classrooms and laboratories, they make contact with students from around the globe who come here to study. According to the Institute of International Education, the U.S. hosted more than half a million foreign students during the 2005-06 academic year. These students made Purdue the third top destination, affirming the university's standing as a global learning leader. Our faculty plays a key role in the international exchange of ideas, and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering prides itself on out team's contributions. Here we spotlight some professors making a key global impact.

Various Artists
The idea is simple enough: Insides Music's Cold As Fuck compilation seeks to capture a moment in the Twin Cities musical underground, bringing together 25 bands that play across the metro without a media spotlight—musicians whose labors of love are oft overlooked. The title refers to Minnesota's weather, with its extreme variation serving as metaphor for the different sounds on the record, which range from surf and improvisation to electronic, grind, and noise. While all are prevalent, there is an even balance, and the cohesion of the record flows surprisingly smoothly for so many genre-bending acts. In fact, if there is a fault, it is that it's sometimes difficult to differentiate as one artist blends into another. Among the more familiar names are Skoal Kodiak, Sarah Johnson, and Knife World.
The Mojo Spleens' "Buzzsaw and Blastbeats" is a fitting way to start. While its name is indicative of the style, there's a melodic bent to the noise. The song is short—all 25 are, in fact—as one should expect with so many bands appearing on a single piece of wax. And while there are a number of hardcore and grind acts, the overall tone is one of experimental noise with an aggressive inclination. Tracks by Cokskar and Anneliese might encourage cathartic anger-release, while others, such as Tender Meat or Ghostband, carry more of a head-bobbing, foot-tapping groove. Jose Bove and Monsters of Pot supply atmospheric noise.
This isn't a sampler for the average Cities 97 devotee, rather one for the people who seek out new bands, venues, and sounds in the city's underbelly. Cold as Fuck is further proof that the Twin Cities has a vibrant scene that continues to push musical boundaries.

text: My sister and I just returned from a memorable few days at White Stallion with my 16-year-old niece. The staff and wranglers are friendly and knowledgeable, the facilities are superb, the horses are well trained with great temperaments, the food is great, and the atmosphere lends itself to making friends with other guests as well. Russell True runs the ranch very professionally and he has such great instincts about people and horses. I felt challenged to do more than I thought I could do as a rider (i.e., fast rides in the desert, team cattle penning), but with good training through semi-private lessons. There is something for everyone, whether you ride or not, at any age (swimming, fitness center, massage, game room, art lessons, etc). I would highly recommend White Stallion for a great family experience!

The New York Times had an amazing front page story yesterday which I would have thought would have jumped to the top of every cable news cycle except for the Senate's confirmation of Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
The headline of the story was: "White House Affirms Deal on Drug Cost" by David Kirkpatrick.
I want you to read the lead paragraph very slowly: Pressed by industry lobbyists, White House officials on Wednesday assured drug makers that the administration stood by a behind-the-scenes deal to block any Congressional effort to extract cost savings from them beyond an agreed-upon $80 billion.
Whoa! Check Please!
How can the words "industry lobbyists" and "White House" be in the same sentence? We have been told - to the point of needing Compazine (an anti-nausea drug) - that this administration was, is, and will always be a lobbyist-free zone.
Yet, here it is; in the newspaper of record. The White House had reached a secret deal with the pharmaceutical industry to put a ceiling on the amount of money the government could save by negotiating for lower drug prices. In the words of the NY Times, the White House "had committed to protect drug makers from bearing further costs in the [health care] overhaul" but "had never spelled out the details of the agreement."
Oh, here we are in graf seven: The new attention to the agreement could prove embarrassing to the White House, which has sought to keep lobbyists at a distance, including by refusing to hire them to work in the administration.
Embarassing? Ya think, DiNozzo? (To quote Leroy Jethro Gibbs).
It turns out that there is a quid pro quo for keeping the drug companies out of the rough and tumble world of free markets. Again, from Mr. Kirkpatrick's piece:
Failing to publicly confirm [the drug lobby's] descriptions of the deal risked alienating a powerful industry ally currently helping to bankroll millions in television commercials in favor of Mr. Obama's reforms. [emphasis mine]
So… let me walk through this. In strange world in which Obamaville is located, lobbyists are bad only if and until the White House needs them to do things like run ads in favor of nationalized health care and then lobbyists are good.
So, what if the previously dreadful, greedy, self-serving oil companies sent their lobbyists in to cut a deal with Obama to support a cap-and-trade bill though heavy advertising? Might they trade for removing any caps on their profits?
