Welcome to the CASSIES
The CASSIES is Canada's premier advertising awards, the only awards focused on the effect advertising has on driving advertisers' business based on published case studies.
To win a CASSIES, you need three things:
- Great advertising.
- Great results.
- A compelling business case.
1) Great advertising. The CASSIES was set up in 1993 to showcase how Canadian-produced advertising can be instrumental in profitably advancing the business goals of advertisers in Canada across short, medium and long-term time horizons. We believe that great advertising and great results are not mutually exclusive, in fact they are symbiotic. Consequently, the quality of the advertising as perceived by the judges forms a part of the judging criteria: 30% of the overall scoring.
2) Great results. Given the above remit, it is crucial in writing a CASSIES case that you are able to show the impact of the advertising on key business metrics. The strength of the results accounts for 30% of judges' scoring. In Packaged Goods categories these would include sales, consumption, market share and profits; in the Cause category they would include donations, engagement and awareness. While some clients are wary of releasing such data into the public domain, every case needs to be formally approved by the client to be submitted. Not being able to highlight the progress made on such metrics for reasons of confidentiality is a severe hindrance to the winning of a CASSIES.
3) A compelling business case. Probably the biggest single reason why submitted cases fail to win a CASSIES is the failure of the case-writer to demonstrate to well-informed, sceptical judges that the great results were primarily brought about by the great advertising. 40% of the judges' score is on how convincing is the case. As case-writer, you have to prove with a well-constructed argument that the advertising drove substantial and significant results, actively demonstrating the results were not caused by other factors in the marketing mix. To ensure consistency of approach, we insist all cases are submitted in a set format using this site's case template.
This site will help you not only enter your case but make it as strong as possible. Please take the time to read through all the sections before commencing with your case. Good luck!
The CASSIES is the only Canadian organization with such a mission, and is presented by:
- The Institute of Communication Agencies (ICA)
- Association des agencies de communication creative (A2C)
- Association des professionnels de la communication et du marketing (APCM)

CASSIES Honours Canada's Top Business-Building Communications Campaigns
National Pride Reigns Supreme as Rethink and Molson Coors' "Beer Fridge" Captures the Grand Prix
Toronto, ON – February 20, 2015 — The prestigious CASSIES Awards, Canada's only industry awards program recognizing business effectiveness based on rigorous published case studies, handed out 60 awards at its annual gala in Toronto last night.
The competition's highest honour, the CASSIES Grand Prix, was awarded to Rethink and Molson Coors for their "Molson Canadian Beer Fridge" campaign featuring the now iconic, bright red fridge that could only be opened with a Canadian passport. Capturing the curiosity of crowds and media from around the world, and the hearts of Canadians here at home, this fridge that travelled the world, increased market share even though the premium beer segment continued to decline in Canada. It generated over $6 million in incremental revenue for Molson Coors.

Study: Canadian media consumption
The Cassies Awards has released a study of media consumption called "The Canadian Cross-Screen Report." According to the online survey, conducted by Angus Reid, 58% of respondents agreed that Canadians prefer content in 30-second packages. Also, 43% of respondents described themselves as "social media addicts" and 54% reported using more than one electronic device at a time while consuming media. In addition, 32% of respondents between the ages of 18 and 34 said that their devices "make them feel powerful" and that without them, they would "feel like they are not in charge of their life."
"This study explored how our capacity to absorb messages is changing, based on our interaction with our devices and the social media platforms on which we journey on a daily basis," said Jani Yates, president of the Cassies. "In terms of multi-device and cross-screen usage, the challenge for marketers will be to build multi-level engagement platforms that are intuitive to consumers' desires."
The Cassies Awards are presented by the Institute of Communication Agencies, the Association des agences de Publicité du Québec and the Association des professionnels de la communication et du marketing.

The 2015 County Data Book is out today — and the news isn't good. Although a recovering economy has started to lead to lower rates of child poverty and higher levels of income for families overall, we're still a long way away from where we were before the Great Recession. Even worse, the Data Book shows a stark divide in levels of economic opportunity based on skin color and place of birth.
For white kids in the Portland Metro Area, things are starting to look better. But for everyone else, and in particular for children of color, barriers to opportunity are high. White children outside the metro area and children of color live in families with much higher rates of poverty and much lower incomes. This is especially problematic given that half a person's earnings can be predicted by how much his or her parents made.
In many ways, what we're seeing today is a result of the long-term trend of job polarization, in which middle wage jobs are harder to come by while low and high wage jobs grow at higher rates. This polarization hollows out the middle of the income distribution and increases the gap between the high and low economic rungs. Although this polarization has been decades in the making, the Great Recession exacerbated it — in fact, 8 out of 10 jobs lost during the recession were middle wage jobs. This chart from the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis illustrates the problem well: although middle wage jobs are more available than they were in the depths of the recession, the growth rate is much smaller than that for low and high wage jobs.
For workers lucky enough to be in high wage jobs, this is all well and good. But for workers stuck in the low end of the wage distribution, this job polarization makes it even harder to stay afloat. Moreover, it negatively affects the levels of economic opportunity for their kids in the future. Paired with high housing and child care costs throughout Oregon, lower incomes mean that parents are more likely to have to live in areas with concentrated poverty, near schools with lower levels of funding, and are less likely to be able to invest in high quality early learning opportunities for their kids. All of these factors place kids at a significant disadvantage in terms of later economic success.
Most importantly, this job polarization is not random. Those most likely to move from middle to low wage jobs are workers of color — and those most likely to have access to high wage jobs are White, metro-area workers. Today, nearly half of low wage jobs are held by workers of color, compared to only 25% of high wage jobs. For White, metro-area workers the statistics are almost the mirror image.
The aggregate economic statistics are saying that we're in a recovery — a good but not great one. But looking below the surface, it quickly becomes clear that the bulk of our kids and families aren't reaping any of the benefits. And without immediate action to narrow the gulf of opportunity between White, Portland-area children and everyone else, we risk setting an entire generation behind.

A North Carolina congresswoman under fire for calling claims that a Wyoming man was killed because he was gay a "hoax" says she should have selected her words more carefully.
Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx said during debate in the House that the 1998 death of Matthew Shepard shouldn't be used to justify a hate crimes bill because it wasn't a hate crime. Foxx said Shepard was killed during a robbery.
Foxx later called her comments "a poor choice of words."
The bill approved by the House would expand a federal hate crimes law to include acts motivated by sexual orientation.
Gay rights supporters were critical of Foxx. Georgia Democratic Rep. John Lewis said Foxx's comments were "unreal, unbelievable."

Jackie Bradley Jr.'s hitting streak is done and in the books at 29 games. He went 0-for-4 against Colorado's Jon Gray and fell one short of tying Nomar Garciaparra and Tris Speaker for second place on the Red Sox career list at 30. Bradley was standing in the on-deck circle when Mookie Betts grounded out to end the game.

The longest hitting streak of the MLB season is in serious jeopardy. Jackie Bradley Jr. is 0-for-4 after an 8th inning groundout against Colorado's Jon Gray, and the Red Sox will need several men to reach base if he's going to get another shot in the 9th.

Newly-wed gold chain thief fined
Ceon Maynard who was charged earlier this year with robbing a man of his gold chain, was fined $75 000 last week after he was found guilty of the offence.
Magistrate Fabayo Azore announced her verdict when the newly-wed 21-year-old appeared before her at the Georgetown Magistrate's Court. The magistrate said that after careful consideration of the facts presented and the testimonies heard, she believed Maynard was guilty. She acknowledged that even though the victim only saw Maynard for a few seconds, the fact that the gold chain was found in his mouth after he was caught by the police was convincing.
Maynard, who was fined $75,000 with an alternative of six months imprisonment, stole the necklace from the victim while they were travelling in a bus. He then attempted to escape but was caught after the victim and a policeman accosted him. Maynard was subsequently charged.

What's the buzz from the world of sports? Here are some items that will have people talking:
The Blazers are 12-8 and tied for the fourth-best record in the Western Conference, indicating that a lot of things have gone right this season.
But not much of that success can be attributed to the backcourt. Portland's three primary guards — Raymond Felton, Wesley Matthews, and Jamal Crawford — have combined to shoot .382 from the field and .308 from 3-point range.
Talking Points thinks the trio is better than that, which bodes well for the remainder of the season. But given the recent history, Blazer fans undoubtedly will find a way to blame Nate McMillan's offensive system for the guards' struggles.
With the well-documented woes of Pac-12 men's basketball teams, there's a very real possibility the conference will end up with only one school in this year's NCAA Tournament.
But that shouldn't take away from what is shaping up as a thrilling conference race. Washington, Oregon, California and Colorado entered Saturday's play in a four-way tie for first place, and landing the No. 1 seed for the conference tournament could be especially crucial this year.
How often have you heard a sports promoter or coach say how good their young protégé will eventually become?
All the time, right? That's part of their job afterall.
Flash back to 2005 in Redding, Calif., where a 15-year-old tennis player was taking part in a USTA Challenger tournament — the minor leagues of tennis.
Her coach at the time said something like: "Watch out. She's going to be really good."
Victoria Azarenka proved that statement correct on Saturday by winning the Australian Open and gaining the No. 1 ranking in the world.

Metering for ND Grad

Re: Metering for ND Grad
If you meter through the grad, technically you're changing the information the camera is metering. Instead of a bright sky, you now have a darker sky, so it's technically not the same. You can't be sure exactly what decision the camera will make. It's better to take control of the metering and settings, knowing how the grad will affect the scene. If you have time for a grad, you have time to meter.

Abstract: In this paper, the covalent immobilization and luminescence enhancement of a europium (Eu(III)) complex in a porous silicon (pSi) layer with a microcavity (pSiMC) structure are demonstrated. The alkyne-pendant arm of the Eu(III) complex was covalently immobilized on the azide-modified surface via ligand-assisted "click" chemistry. The design parameters of the microcavity were optimized to obtain an efficient luminescence-enhancing device. Luminescence enhancements by a factor of 9.5 and 3.0 were observed for Eu(III) complex bound inside the pSiMC as compared to a single layer and Bragg reflector of identical thickness, respectively, confirming the increased interaction between the immobilized molecules and the electric field in the spacer of the microcavity. When comparing pSiMCs with different resonance wavelength position, luminescence was enhanced when the resonance wavelength overlapped with the maximum emission wavelength of the Eu(III) complex at 614 nm, allowing for effective coupling between the confined light and the emitting molecules. The pSiMC also improved the spectral color purity of the Eu(III) complex luminescence. The ability of a pSiMC to act as an efficient Eu(III) luminescence enhancer, combined with the resulting sharp linelike emission, can be exploited for the development of ultrasensitive optical biosensors. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Thoughts on an education Walker, D.A.

Abstract: Research in nanoscience and nanotechnology has grown rapidly in recent years and has provided numerous scientific and technological breakthroughs. The field has also, in some sense, changed the way in which a research topic can be tackled, unconstrained by traditional scientific disciplines. However, what effect have the developments in research had on the curriculum being taught in universities? And what sort of education do the nanotechnologists of the future need to succeed? Nature Nanotechnology asked a range of current, or recently graduated, masters and PhD students about their own experiences, and what, if anything, they would change about the current education system. Description: Eight students from across the world discuss their own nanoscience education 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z SERS and NMR studies of typical aggregation-induced emission molecules Fang, C. Xie, Y.

Abstract: Over recent decades, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecules have attracted increasing attention. Restriction of intramolecular rotation (RIR) has been widely accepted as the cause of the emission when AIE molecules aggregate into clusters. The intramolecular rotation of AIE molecules can be monitored by molecular vibration spectra such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared, and Raman, especially surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) which has high sensitivity down to a single molecule. We employed SERS and NMR to study the AIE emission mechanism and compared experimental results with simulation data to monitor the RIR. Interestingly, we found that intramolecular rotation was also restricted for individual AIE molecules loaded onto SERS substrate surfaces due to the laid-down configuration. 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z Accurate lineshape spectroscopy and the Boltzmann constant Truong, G.W. Anstie, J.D. May, E.F. Stace, T.M. Luiten, A.N. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/95714 2015-12-23T05:15:59Z 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Accurate lineshape spectroscopy and the Boltzmann constant Author: Truong, G.W.; Anstie, J.D.; May, E.F.; Stace, T.M.; Luiten, A.N. Abstract: Spectroscopy has an illustrious history delivering serendipitous discoveries and providing a stringent testbed for new physical predictions, including applications from trace materials detection, to understanding the atmospheres of stars and planets, and even constraining cosmological models. Reaching fundamental-noise limits permits optimal extraction of spectroscopic information from an absorption measurement. Here, we demonstrate a quantum-limited spectrometer that delivers high-precision measurements of the absorption lineshape. These measurements yield a very accurate measurement of the excited-state (6P1/2) hyperfine splitting in Cs, and reveals a breakdown in the well-known Voigt spectral profile. We develop a theoretical model that accounts for this breakdown, explaining the observations to within the shot-noise limit. Our model enables us to infer the thermal velocity dispersion of the Cs vapour with an uncertainty of 35 p.p.m. within an hour. This allows us to determine a value for Boltzmann's constant with a precision of 6 p.p.m., and an uncertainty of 71 p.p.m. 2015-01-01T00:00:00Z

text: i am just using HP 8500 and I think this is most of the efficient printers of recent times. Since I was opting for an Wireless Communication , I made a choice for this one. I was at present working on Mac but it came to my notice that there were some issues as I was with some "Communication Error" on my printer. It was previously working fine but ,later printing was not possible from the Mac . it was saying something like this as Connecting to Printer" and then gave "Communication Error". I just thought it would be OK when I connected wired. Made some factory settings made some latest firmware update but it was not solved yet. So anyone here can solve this one as i am too lazy to find some solutions on other sites and posting the same issue.

The housing market clung to a tenuous recovery in the face of multiple head winds, but may be poised for stronger growth, fresh data released Tuesday suggested.
Existing-home prices rose 0.8% in January, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller's 20-city index. Unadjusted prices fell slightly for a third straight month. Year-over-year, gains cooled modestly to a still-solid 13.2%.
Separately, February new-home sales fell 3.3% to an annualized 440,000 from January's downwardly revised 455,000, the Commerce Department said. That's the lowest since September but well above the monthly average of 431,000 in 2013.
"The underlying trend is relatively good," said Scott Brown, chief economist with Raymond James. "New-home sales are normally pretty volatile even when weather isn't a factor. I take it with a grain of salt and anticipate a rebound in the spring."
Weather is just one of several hurdles housing has faced recently. Interest rates skyrocketed last summer after the Federal Reserve suggested it may begin tapering bond buys, and that combined with higher home prices and still-tight mortgage credit may keep homeownership out of reach for many people.
Consumer confidence data out Tuesday from the Conference Board touched a 6-year high, but fewer people said they planned to buy a home in March than in February and in most of 2013.
That hesitation is likely due to rate concerns, said Russell Price, senior economist for Ameriprise Financial. Yet he thinks that once the spring buying season kicks into high gear, the specter of higher rates and the expectation of rising prices may motivate prospective buyers.
"Look to the spring to tell the tale of the housing sector," Brown said. Housing and the overall economy lost some steam in the winter, he said. "The next couple of months are going to be critical."
Builders may be key to getting some of that mojo back. The Na tional Association of Home Builders' sentiment gauge plunged into contraction territory in February and stayed there in March. Builders continue to cite multiple constraints, from a shortage of labor to a slower supply chain.
"This was never going to be a quick recovery," Brown said. "It could be many, many years before we get back to normal."
In a research note, IHS Global Insight economists noted that homebuilders have had to contend with construction prices that accelerated every month.
"However, the price of lumber has been retreating in year-on-year terms, which should give builders the wiggle room they need to raise wages," the economists noted.
Tight inventory is dampening the market by driving prices to unsustainably high gains. Price thinks housing will return to normal once appreciation settles around 5%. All the pieces are in place for builders to start supplying more inventory, he added.
Pre-downturn supply has been absorbed and builders are below the sustainable rate based on normal demographic trends.
"There's a lot of upside for new construction," he said.
Homebuilder stocks, hard hit in recent weeks, mostly fell modestly Tuesday, including Lennar (LEN) and KB Home (KBH).

Sanji by BlueBandanaJakeWatch

Sanji is my favorite character in One Piece (which is also my favorite anime/manga) and I've been catching up on it and was in a mood~
Pretty pleased with this one actually
Pretty pleased with this one actually
Very smooth and impressive animation!
Kinda looks like a blonde Levi
I really like how fluid the movement is. It'd be really cool if you could do a more detailed one sometime.
Ah thanks! I might do something more detailed in the future, its pretty time consuming but its definitely fun, so we shall see
very impressive!
Hoot that's awesome and once again, I love the style you animated him in! :'D
Oh and how far have you gotten into the series?
I don't want to accidentally spoil haha
I am fully up to date with the latest chapter, so do your worst sir!
And thank you, I'm glad you dig the style, its my for fun style
And thank you, I'm glad you dig the style, its my for fun style
Did you know Sanji loses a limb in the later chapters? 83
Nah I'm just kidding xD But boooy the latest arc has been up there, seriously who'd guess that person would appear now?
And your welcome haha
Maaaaan I know! And do you think he'll eat the fruit if he wins?? This arc is really damn exciting!
I need to catch up with this show. I was barely over episode 500 when I last checked and great animation, by the way. ^_^
I just did a little marathon and still have plenty of catching up to do, just watched like eps 520 to 570 or so and Im still behind! XD
And thank you, glad you like it
And thank you, glad you like it
This is so awesome! One piece is the best!
This is great!
I love Sanji!

Do it! Practice!
Yea! i must cause i'm actully making a serie on yotube, and i want to improv my animation skills!
haha cool ^^
off his chain
That must have taken forever. You did an AMAZING job on the hands/legs animation ;0 It's really smooth, and the style/anatomy and everything... A+!
It took a bit longer than I thought it would! Completed over the course of a couple of days (with lots of breaks though!)
But thank you so much! I really appreciate it, Im really happy with how the motion came out and everything, thanks for the A+
His battle in the current arc is going to be good.
Man this whole current arc has been nothing but excitement
This is well done

'Just bought 'Digital Fortress'
I don't know what these other guys are talking about. I think it was Dan Brown's best comedy. The funniest part was where he thought that a 16-bit encryption key was a sequence of 16 ascii characters. Why look up the word 'bit' when it's FAR more entertaining to make up your own definition?
I would consider the kindle if the cost of the books was far lower than the cost of the corresponding hard copies. It isn't.

Its just weather beaten .

I would say south east

To steal, to give birth to an idea, to break away from world parents in order to carve out a life for oneself requires an heroic or Promethean personality. Such patterns of behavior have been experienced on a creative level by inventors and innovators during the course of the centuries, and psychologically by those who seek to earn their independence from forces that would overwhelm them to become integrated individuals.
Promethean "fire stealers" are nourished by a "divine" flame that compels them to burn through the fabric of the known world into the preformed or the void. In this penumbra they extract their "ideas" from infinite possibilities. They steal their "treasure" from the world of the absolute, or God's domain, and return with it to the phenomenological sphere while uprooting established values and norms.
Prometheus may be considered the prototype of those who desire to learn God's secrets, to become His equal either consciously or unconsciously, and to break out of the finite realm into the infinite. It is the Promethean element that causes certain persons to seek beyond the known--to look for the elixir of life, the philosopher's stone, God's wisdom. This Promethean syndrome compels them to become "creators" not only of things but also of beings such as an automaton, a robot, or an homunculus. By nourishing the idea that through certain religious disciplines man may evolve into a more perfect individual to experience and understand the domain of the absolute, that he may also be able to create man, diminishes his sense of powerlessness and encourages him to believe he has the ability to transcend his finitude.
Promethean types are not lacking in the Middle Ages, either in the realms of theology or science or both, because at the time, theology was considered a science. Men such as Albertus Mag

I just ran into her and she said she had just read that rules had just changed and car seats can only be used until a child is 40lbs. She said she saw it on the Tsa website.
I told get to check FAA rules.
Is this true?!
Sarah, Mummy to Leah, 10/14/06, FFing in a Graco NautilusSamuel, 9/2/08, FFing in a Graco Nautilus, Sophie, 12/22/10, RFing in a Graco MyRide
This was cut and pasted from FAA's website. I think the important word in the highlighted section is recommends not requires.
I am sure these suggestions were probably written before carseats had higher weight limits.
Be sure the shoulder straps are properly adjusted and fasten the airplane seat belt around the CRS.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when using a CRS. FAA recommends that a child weighing:
FAA controls the approval of some but not all CRSs. Additional information is available on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website.
I don't sign the damn envelope with my vagina- Rabidus Matris
Bad Ass Mother Runner (BAMR) with Running Mamas
WOHM, Running Mom to Alex (7/09)
A child has the right to use a child restraint in which they properly fit. The FAA uses the legal definition of "child," a person is under 18 years of age. Here is a link to the document issued by the FAA that spells it out. The contents in the InFO have since been incorporated into the most recent Advisory Circular on the subject. But the first link is short and to the point.
ETA: Here are the exceprts your friend needs:
"No operator may prohibit a child (an individual who has not reached his or her 18th birthday) from using an approved CRS when the parent or guardian purchases a seat for the child, the child is accompanied by a parent or guardian and the child is within the weight limits for the CRS."(bolding mine)
"A CRS with a base that is too wide to fit properly in a seat with rigid armrests can be moved to a seat with moveable armrests that can be raised to accommodate the CRS."
GO of the Traveling with Children and Germany boards.
As a side note, on the Nauti there are two sets of stickers. On one side they are for harness mode (and can be used on the plane). On the other side the stickers are for booster mode (and say the seat can not be used on a plane). The FAA approval wording will be a line or two of fine print in red in a sea of black fine print. It isn't a separate sticker or easy to find even if you are looking for it.

I took a ride with the Green Ranger,
Stepped up and showed me lots of things.
He'd liquefy my eye and slice it up like pie,
Now at night my right ear always rings.
I took a ride with the Green Ranger,
Things were not quite what I had thought.
The (Nirvana) city fire, turned my nostril hairs to wire.
That's the night I'd nearly lost the block. (plot?)
It electrifies the night, it magnifies the sight,
Watch out or you might just lose the plot.
Who wants to ride with the Green Ranger. (x4)

MELISSA BLOCK, host:
Google is also in the headlines for a story that hits much closer to home. The Internet search company will install super high-speed fiber optic Internet cables in at least one U.S. city. The test project is called Google Fiber. And it'll offer Internet speeds up to 100 times faster than what most people have today. But Google says it can only bring the service to about half a million homes and that has set off feverish campaigning to win the project.
Dustin Dwyer of Michigan Radio reports from Grand Rapids.
DUSTIN DWYER: Topeka started it all. The official application process to be considered for Google Fiber is all online. But leaders of Kansas' capital city decided they needed an edge to get Google's attention, so they temporarily and unofficially changed the city's name. Instead of Topeka, it's now Google, Kansas. The folks in Duluth, Minnesota were quick to respond with this mock press conference posted on YouTube.
Mayor DON NESS (Duluth, Minnesota): My fellow Duluthians, please remember that just because Topeka was the first to make an obnoxious, symbolic gesture to suck up to the good folks there at Google, doesn't mean that we can't suck up even more.
DWYER: As is to prove the point, Duluth Mayor Don Ness took a February dip in the icy waters of Lake Superior just to get Google's attention. In response, the mayor of Sarasota, Florida went for a swim in a shark tank. Sarasota also recruited L.A. singer-songwriter Lindsey Ray to do a jingle.
(Soundbite of jingle)
Ms. LINDSEY RAY (Musician): (Singing) There's no limit to all the things that I can do now that I found you, thank you, Google Fiber.
DWYER: Meanwhile, the folks in Grand Rapids, Michigan took a different tack, hoping sheer numbers would impress Google.
(Soundbite of song, "I Gotta Feeling")
BLACK EYED PEAS (Music Group): (Singing) That tonight's gonna be a good night.
DWYER: On Friday, volunteers organized a downtown rally for Google Fiber. Hundreds of people came, dressed in the bright colors of Google's logo. They unfurled a half-mile-long string of balloons to represent the fiber optic lines, and they made a lot of noise.
Unidentified Man: My Grand Rapids is...
(Soundbite of cheering)
Unidentified Man: My Grand Rapids is...
(Soundbite of cheering)
DWYER: Through all of these stunts and trust me, there are dozens more -people at Google have been paying attention. But that doesn't mean the city with the best stunt wins. Minnie Ingersoll is Google's product manager.
Ms. MINNIE INGERSOLL (Product Manager, Google): We're excited about the grassroots enthusiasm, but we're going to be evaluating all the applications based on their merit.
DWYER: Google has been a little vague about exactly what does have merit in this competition. But Ingersoll points to a couple criteria: one, Google wants to be able to install its fiber lines quickly, so infrastructure is important. And, two, Google is looking for a place that can actually use ridiculously fast Internet and not just for lightning-quick downloads or the latest episode of Lost.

A perspective piece in the Archives of Internal Medicine by Dr. Vinay Prasad of the Medical Oncology Branch of the National Cancer Institute tells a sad tale of what is headlined, "An Unmeasured Harm of Screening."
It's a story of a 65-year old man who was screened for abdominal aortic aneurysm with ultrasound followed by CT scan.
The overly-condensed story is this:
The author concludes:
"This study highlights a number of complicated issues in health care. First, Mr R was appropriately consented for surgery; however, in hindsight he wishes different information were presented to him. The informed consent process is often long and complicated, but it remains unclear if it best communicates what some patients want to know. Second, translating data from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to individual patients, who often differ from those participants in the RCTs, remains an uncertain affair. Third, data are often extrapolated from older studies. The data from the cited screening example were collected between 1997 and 1999, prior to the development of endovascular repair. Finally, how quickly should physicians respond to new data, and are data from only 1 or 2 studies sufficient to change practice?"
Such examples should not be confined to the pages of medical journals. Consumers need to read about these as well.
Our 6.5 year experience in reviewing health care news stories on HealthNewsReview.org shows a clear and overwhelming pattern of messages that emphasize/exaggerate the potential benefits of medical interventions and minimize or totally ignore potential harms.
We Welcome Comments. But please note: We will delete comments that include personal attacks, unfounded allegations, unverified facts, product pitches, profanity or any from anyone who doesn't list what appears to be an actual email address. We will also end any thread of repetitive comments. We don't give medical advice so we won't respond to questions asking for it. Please see more on our comments policy.
Totally agree – screening and preventive care in general have a "minimax" problem – minimize potential harms, maximize potential benefits. And usually what's missing is context – putting the potential harms/benefits in terms of NNN and similar frames of reference.

Rescue Archaeology in Eastern Cameroon. (Special Section)
Mindzie, Christophe Mbida, Asombang, Raymond, Delneuf, Michele, Antiquity
Many infrastructural development projects are now being carried out in Cameroon (e.g. road building, oil pipeline construction, and urban renewal). At present, no specific data base exists to determine the current and potential extent of damage to archaeological and historical sites. To redress this, we believe that there is an urgent need to make impact assessments and mitigation work a mandatory precondition of development approval for entrepreneurs and public works professionals operating in the country.
The current state of affairs, although alarming, is not so desperate, since there have been noticeable advances following the first example of rescue archaeology in Cameroon. This was carried out in connection with the road-tarring project linking Bertoua and Garoua-Boulai (BGB) in the eastern part of the country (map, FIGURE 1). The project, funded by the European Union (EU), prescribed rescue archaeology as part of the pre-inception environmental studies. The results from this survey along the BCB road provide the first statistics against which to assess the level of threat posed by development projects, as well as providing the first archaeological information for this area.
The Bertoua region is a monotonous plateau (mean 700 m a.s.l.). The general slope is north--south, and the evenness of the landscape is emphasized by the numerous whaleback hills and wide valleys, although a few inselbergs appear north of Bertoua (Mt Yangui 885 m; Mt Taki 906 m). The geological substratum of the region is made up of very old granite. The drainage pattern is dense. To the west is the Sanaga basin with the Lom, Ndo, Yangamo and Yong, while the Kadei basin with the Oudou, Koubou and Beka lies in the eastern part. The climate is subequatorial with four seasons (Suchel 1972). The region is a contact zone between the rainforest and savannah.
An initial archaeological reconnaissance was conducted on the inselbergs of Yangui, Dinko and Mombal prior to gravel excavation. Systematic archaeological monitoring followed along the entire length of the road, immediately after initial grubbing-out and clearing of vegetation. All important surface scatters were recorded (any concentration comprising more than 10 different artefacts over an area of 10 sq. m). On a few sites, subsurface test-pitting and rescue excavations were conducted to determine the depth and the extent of archaeological deposits and the quality of preservation (FIGURE 2). Important earthworks occurred in many areas, disturbing soil horizons and revealing buried sites. A systematic inspection of trench wall profiles was undertaken (FIGURE 3). All buried features were listed.
119 surface scatters were located; 28 sites were buried, of which 23 were anthropogenic pits and 5 were ironworking sites. The distribution of sites along the 248-km route shows that, on average, a site with evidence of pits is encountered every 10. …

Oklahoma film critics give top 2012 honors to 'Argo'
The Oklahoma Film Critics Circle, a statewide group of professional film critics, announced its seventh annual list of awards for achievement in cinema, giving top honors to "Argo," an unlikely but true story about government agents partnering with Hollywood to save American diplomats during the 1979-81 Iran Hostage Crisis.
"Argo" also earned two additional wins: for Ben Affleck in the best director category and Chris Terrio for best adapted screenplay.
Set during the early and unsettling weeks after the rise of the Ayatollah Khomeini and the taking of American hostages, "Argo" tapped into the deep traditions of government intrigue found in the realistic dramas of the 1970s such as "All the President's Men." The film proved that it is still possible to maintain suspense even when the outcome is part of the historical record.
Like the second most-honored film in the list, Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty," "Argo" proved that skillfully told stories about real people at the center of covert missions can capture imaginations just as effectively as fictional spy adventures.
"The vote went smoothly this time out, but believe me, the voting between those top two films was a nail-biter," OFCC President George Lang said. "What I find fascinating about this process is how these votes reveal patterns in filmmaking, critical appreciation and audience enthusiasm. The events in 'Argo' and 'Zero Dark Thirty' take place three decades apart, but they both achieve much of their storytelling success by centering on smart professionals putting their lives on the line."
Rounding out the list of 10 best films of 2012 list are "Zero Dark Thirty," "Moonrise Kingdom," "Django Unchained," "Silver Linings Playbook," "Beasts of the Southern Wild," "The Master," "Lincoln," "Looper," and "Les Miserables."
Best actor honors went to Daniel Day-Lewis in "Lincoln."
His committed and cinematically untraditional portrayal of President Abraham Lincoln delved into the thoughtful man of good humor and intellect whose political prowess resulted in the freeing of slaves in 1865.
Best actress honors went to Jessica Chastain for her captivating performance in "Zero Dark Thirty" as Maya, a CIA operative who leads the nearly decade-long mission to find Osama bin Laden.
Anne Hathaway received votes for more than one performance this year, but earned the best supporting actress for her role as Fantine in "Les Miserables," while Philip Seymour Hoffman won best supporting actor for his powerful and nuanced performance as new religion leader Lancaster Dodd in "The Master."
"If there is a common denominator to these performances, it has to be deep, relatable humanity," said Lang, assistant entertainment editor at The Oklahoman. "Day-Lewis made us see Lincoln as a real, flesh-and-blood man, which was a steep climb after nearly 150 years of dramatic depictions that created a solemn, almost godlike persona. With Chastain, Hoffman and Hathaway, what elevates each of them is a demonstrated ability to fully commit to a character. Their embodiment of their on-screen characters feels complete and utterly believable."
While 2012 was a year of intelligent and entertaining films in all genres, it also was a year of disappointments and disasters. OFCC members selected Adam Sandler's "That's My Boy" as their obviously worst film of the year. Their nod to Ridley Scott's "Prometheus," a kind of "sideways sequel" to his "Alien" franchise for the not-so-obviously worst film of the year, suggests that, in space, no one can hear you disappoint millions of fans.
"Look, we spend so much of our lives watching bad movies that we can almost smell them coming," Lang said. "The not-so-obviously worst film category is a different kind of animal. These are movies that had everything going for them and still could not get it together."
Two new categories were added this year. The "best body of work" category honors actors, filmmakers, producers or technicians with multiple achievements in one year. This category was won by Joseph Gordon Levitt for his work in "Looper," "The Dark Knight Rises" and "Lincoln." Another new honor, "best guilty pleasure," went to "21 Jump Street," the Jonah Hill/Channing Tatum reboot of the cops-in-high-school television series that helped launch Johnny Depp's career.
"Like so many of my OFCC colleagues, I went into '21 Jump Street' with zero expectations and then laughed until my face hurt," Lang said. "I wish more comedies were as fearless as that one."
OFCC members are Oklahoma-based movie critics who write for print, broadcast and online outlets that publish or post reviews of current film releases. Among the media outlets represented are The Oklahoman, Oklahoma Gazette, Tulsa World, Edmond Life & Leisure, This Land Press and Urban Tulsa. Also represented are television station KOKH FOX 25; radio station KJYO/Clear Channel; and the websites 411mania.com, ionOKmag.com, crosswalk.com, u-out.net and shadowcabaret.com.
Film buffs can find the complete list of awards on the OFCC website, ofccircle.org, as well as frequent postings on film-related items and links to reviews.

Gimme dat hand! XD
"YOU!" xD
This is actually so amazing that I couldn't stop staring at it for a fare few minutes! You got the angle of the pointing finger so well! How? I struggled with that bit.
Love the texture of the skin too!
Love the texture of the skin too!
wow thank you for the wonderful comment! I actually surprised myself, I am usually terrible at foreshortening. I think colouring it helped because of the shadowing.
bjkfanbjkdnbjn NIIICE
Thank you XD. Maybe you can make it to the stream next time? I miss having everyone together for streams...
Yeah, I miss having everyone together for streams! I'll keep my eye out for another stream (wether it's yours or Celus) and try to see if I can make it (:
WOW this is totally awesome! Your shading is so precise. And fingers...
That is a mighty awesome hand. <3 Mighty jealous of your artistic skill Binny.
*blush* why thank you! Do we get to see more photos of the dolls soon? When are your new ones coming? (just read your journal haha)
Nice, you did a great job with the contrast between the lights and the darks. Not to mention you follow the pose from the reference really well while also giving the picture a little something of your own.
thanks so much! I wasn't sure if we were supposed to follow the reference right down t the colouring so I just coloured it how I felt haha. And thank you for the watch! I loved the stuff you did for last months contest.
aww thanks! I was sad you weren't able to make it out to the stream ((
I will never, through words, do justice to how much I love this. Compared with the reference, the tones are a little pinky, but this has come into its own and should be looked at separate to the ref. You did good, girl. <3333

You are strong. You are raising a strong boy.
The people yelling at you today, before they even knew why YOU were yelling… they are the weak ones.
The people who didn't even look your way, as you yelled, "Call the police! Call the Police" They are the weak ones.
The ones who were in your face and told YOU to calm down, but refused to even listen when you did…
I hugged you today, mother to mother. Yep, I'm that white girl. When your boy put his arms out for a hug too, I saw how much he appreciated the respect. And it bothered me.
I asked my husband on the way home, what he thought would have happened had it been me, a white woman, and my teenage son, in front of a packed grocery store in the late afternoon; screaming for someone to "call the police!" with an unmistakable fear in my voice. How different would my experience be? After what I witnessed today, there's not even a smidgen of a doubt in my mind that the color of my skin puts me at an advantage, at least in this community,
The truth is, I didn't see what happened. I didn't care what happened. All I care about is you and your family. I heard you screaming as we were getting into our truck. When I got close enough to see your face, I also saw your son. I saw the tears in his eyes as he stood, mature and strong, while a white man, twice his size, got in his face. I also heard one woman snicker, "they don't serve those kind of burgers here" when you had to defend your panic to someone and proclaimed, "I just wanted to get some fucking turkey burgers!".
I hugged you today because you looked scared. And when I'm scared there's nothing better than a reminder that I'm not alone! I hugged you today because that's what I would have needed at that moment. It was weird… I am weird. (That's no secret). But that's why.
I wanted to come back and give you my number… weird… I know… but I felt like I needed you to know that I gave a shit. Because I do. And because I didn't (come back and give you the number)… well, this. ((hugs))

Police are investigating the shooting death of a man with Johnson County ties.
Jamie Simpson, 31, who has family in Edinburgh, was found dead Monday morning in an alley near downtown Indianapolis. A Brown County man, Benjamin Munn, 38, has been arrested on a charge of murder.
The Marion County Coroner's Office said the preliminary cause of death was due to a single gunshot wound, according to a news release from the Brown County Sheriff's Department.
Munn lives on property police searched this week as part of the death investigation. Police searched the 44-acre, wooded property in the 4700 block of Peoga Road in Brown County just across the Johnson County line for more than eight hours Tuesday.
"We believe that this person had been here at some point and that there may have been some type of an altercation," Brown County Sheriff Rick Followell said about Simpson.
His body was discovered Monday when a resident noticed a pair of boots behind trash cans and saw a person on the ground, Marion County chief deputy coroner Alfarena Ballew said.
Simpson was not carrying any identification, she said. He was identified by his fingerprints. An autopsy and toxicology tests have been performed, but results were not immediately available.
His family was notified in Nineveh and Edinburgh, according to Ballew and the Johnson County Sheriff's Office. It's unclear where Simpson was living at the time of his death.
Simpson had been missing since Saturday night. Brown County police initially treated the case as a missing person investigation until they learned of his death midway through their search Tuesday morning on Peoga Road.
Police secured a search warrant for the house on the property and also for the vehicle in which Munn was riding when he was stopped Tuesday night.
Munn's initial hearing has been set for 2:30 p.m. today in Brown Circuit Court in Nashville.
