Big, complex problems require a collective approach with a shared vision and goals, and all hands on deck, rowing in the same direction. That is the bottom line of why, at The Greater Cincinnati Foundation, we are partnering with other organizations to work together.
Collective impact, through investment in backbone organizations and shared outcomes, enables our community to work toward common goals, plotting our course together, and moving in the same direction. We can't just meet at the destination. Together we may come up with solutions.
Learn more about how Collective Impact works at The Greater Cincinnati Foundation.
To make progress more quickly, GCF is investing in "backbone" organizations that serve as catalysts for change in these areas. These partnerships will help the backbone organizations work better together across sectors, address resource gaps, and fuel the broad implementation of strategies that work.
Along with grants, we are working with all six groups to provide support, evaluation, and technical assistance.
In 2012, The Greater Cincinnati Foundation and FSG authored this four-part series in the Stanford Social Innovation Review about the role of backbone organizations in collective impact efforts.
As a continuation of their initial writings, in 2013 The Greater Cincinnati Foundation and FSG authored a two-part series in the Stanford Social Innovation Review on how backbone organizations shape the work of collective impact without formal authority, along with a stand alone piece about how the nature of design thinking complements and strengthens collective impact frameworks in 2015.

The service consumer's confidence in the protection of their privacy is an important factor for the success of electronic services (e-services). It may increase if the service provider offers a description of its data practices. This description can be compared to what the consumer defines as appropriate practices. To allow the exchange of privacy-related descriptions and automatically compare them, the parties involved in the interaction should be able to use a common vocabulary. The goal of this paper is to present a base privacy ontology for e-services and a privacy framework for service-oriented architecture (SOA). The ontology offers a base vocabulary that can be extended to create ontologies specific to a given service domain and operating environment. The framework uses ontologies so that it can support service selection considering the consumer's privacy requirements. It extends SOA with provider policies and consumer preferences based on privacy ontologies.

Mahhi Vij aka Nakusha the dusky girl of Color's
popular show Laagi Tujhse Lagan has toned her body and is in back in
The pretty actress who won the dance reality show Nach Baliye 5 with her beau Jay Bhanushali has been on her toes to get back in shape and to look slim fit. Well, post Nach Baliye the actress has not been seen on screen these days and is hoping to be back on screen soon.
Actress Mahi Vij seems to be looking slimmer and fitter these days and in the best of shape. The actress we hear has lost oodles of weight and has been working out with a personal trainer. When we asked Mahhi she says, "Yes I have been rigorously working out for the last three months. It was a conscious decision to get back to my workout regime, which I couldn't maintain due to Nach and other work commitments in the middle. I decided to get back to it not just to lose weight but I prefer having a healthy lifestyle. I have been getting a lot of compliments recently not only on the weight loss but also on looking fitter and it feels great."
Quiz the actress about the hiatus after Nach Baliye from the small screen and she says, "Talks are on and I am hoping to be back on screen very soon. It has to be the right project though as I don't want to rush into anything."
Looks like this actress has her head on her shoulders!

I'm making a 3D game in XNA using Ox Engine. There is very little documentation and I have been surviving thus far, but now I've hit a logical road block for a good while and I think it's time to ask for outside help.
All movement and mouse look x work and the camera follows properly however when I move the mouse up/down on the Y axis to make the camera move in its circling "bubble" around the character it causes everything else to go out of sync. The character should orbited by the camera, but it also needs to be told what direction the character is facing. I cannot seem to have both.
When I have the code to tell it the direction of the character and move "away"(transpose) from it, it's moving the orbit itself:
if (changeY > 0)
if (camMemory.Y > 110)
tempMatrix *= Matrix.CreateFromAxisAngle(model.Orientation.Left, MathHelper.ToRadians(changeY));
else if (changeY < 0)
if (camMemory.Y < 400)//FAKE PLACEHOLDER VALUE... highest point in arc goes here
tempMatrix *= Matrix.CreateFromAxisAngle(model.Orientation.Left, MathHelper.ToRadians(changeY));
Vector3 camPos = new Vector3(0, 0, 0) ;
camMemory = tempMatrix.Translation;
//NOTE: this is the piece that causes the "bubble" to move
moveAmount = tempMatrix.Forward * 200f;
tempMatrix.Translation += moveAmount;
camPos = tempMatrix.Translation + model.Position;
//Pointer in front, Camera behind, make camera face pointer.
Engine.Camera.SetTransformByLookTarget(camPos, model.Orientation.Up, trackPos);
This means that by not properly orbiting the character, when he turns the camera is out of place.
However when I remedy this problem I am not far enough away from the character to have a proper view and simply multiplying upon tempMatrix.Translation to 'widen' the 'bubble' causes me to be severely out of place. I am bereft of epiphanies. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
tl,dr: How do I make the orbiting camera bubble around the character bigger without moving the center point (transpose isn't working or I'm using it wrong!)
Edit: I wish I could put a bounty on this, lol

VIRGINIA WATER England (Reuters) - Winds gusted at up to 29kph and spectators sought to avoid the driving rain at every opportunity but a sopping wet West Course at Wentworth provided a golfing sanctuary for Rory McIlroy on Friday.
The Northern Irishman, still hurting after scrapping his planned wedding to Danish tennis player Caroline Wozniacki, posted a one-under-par 71 in the BMW PGA Championship second round to finish in a challenging position on five-under 139.
"Once you get inside the ropes you're concentrating on your golf and it's almost like four or five hours of a release to get everything out of your head apart from doing the job at hand," McIlroy told reporters at the European Tour's flagship event.
"It's nice. It's the hours in the day when you're away from it that are probably a little more difficult - you can't let your mind wander at all when you're trying to win a golf tournament."
McIlroy did not make the best of starts, mixing two bogeys and a double bogey with a solitary birdie in the opening seven holes.
The world number 10, though, eagled the par-five 12th for the second successive day before rebounding from a dropped stroke at the 13th with a dynamic sequence of three birdies in the last four holes.
"Even the way the conditions were, three‑over after seven wasn't great but it wasn't disastrous," said McIlroy.
"I knew I had some chances coming on the back nine. It's sort of been a characteristic of my game for the last few weeks and I knew that I would be okay."
Wentworth has never been a happy hunting ground for the former world number one. He has missed the cut in three out of six starts in the tournament and has a best finish of tied fifth in 2009.
"Five-under-par going into the weekend, when the conditions are pretty tricky, is a good effort," said McIlroy.
"I stood here yesterday saying I would be happy to make the cut and I'm in for the weekend which is nice. Hopefully I can make a run at it.
"I feel like I'm playing well enough to shoot something in the mid-60s, maybe not tomorrow as the weather doesn't look too good, but I'm playing well enough to get myself in the mix going into Sunday," added McIlroy.

text: 10-01-98 SHOW OPENING A grumbling opening... The worst burger in New York and you will pay a premium for it, seventeen dollars each. The Oyster Bar at 54th Street and 7th Avenue. Even Danny Bonnadouche came in and walked right out. Opie is going to send them his dental bill for chipping a tooth. Stephanie from Appetite Delight Deli sent in a fax how they keep the show on because the customers enjoy listening to the show. FIRST BREAK Still complaining about the Worst burgers in New York. Anthony testifies that it was the Worst lunch he ever had. The seating problems in New York restaurants. Wayne writes in, "Hey Opie, instead of eating mouth watering delicious burgers at The Oyster Bar, you could go pumpkin picking again. Every time I pass that place, there is never anyone inside. How do they stay in business?" Speculation on how this restaurant might actually stay in business... You have to go inside and order the "Calamari, (wink, wink)..." An e-mail about The Today Show and the challenge, the fake penis on the Today Show with Al Roker. SECOND BREAK Coming out of a U2 song... Scott Muni having a problem with a woman, (The Farting Mom), farting in one of the chairs. Scottso wants the chair quarantined. Some baseball talk, Yankees at Texas, (Rangers). Wondering if they should play, Piss Off a Texan today. THIRD BREAK A woman on the phone looking for information on a J.J.Skinner CD. Anthony, (in his professional voice), and Opie try to help her out by mentioning some of his other hits too. Also helping her as where to find the CD in the music store.

FIFTH BREAK Opie thinks they are getting in trouble. More about their crappy lunch, and the two crowded places they tried to go to before. Opie complaining about the burger and the appearance of it. Anthony says that he has left things that looked just like that in the bowl. Opie said "...the Rangers could have used this as one of their practice pucks." Anthony told the waitress, "This is not what I'm used to, this is different from what my normal daily experience is... Be like everything else in my life." Anthony continues to explain what he expected of a cheeseburger, "I want a cheeseburger, I want it flat, I want it round. I want, oh, silly me, I want cheese on it. There was no cheese! And then we have ketchup on it and stuff because we just wrote it off. It took us thirty minutes just to get the burger so we figured we'll just write off the cheese, whatever... Anthony rated the burgers as 2 fingers, down the throat. SIXTH BREAK Still complaining about the turd burgers they had for lunch, and how you would need a mouth like Monica Lewensky to get one of these in your mouth.

She finishes with threatening them with her lawyer. SEVENTH BREAK Complimenting new listeners. Kathy's comment on how she became a new listener when she rented a car after her accident.

Anthony tells him not to bother because now we have relatives in this neck of the woods A little sports talk on baseball and a teaser for Piss Off A Texan. EIGHTH BREAK About the announcement of Daryl Strawberry's colin cancer. Lorna, (from New Jersey), tunes out every time Opie says, "Me and Anthony". Proper use of the English language... Piss off a Texan! Phone call cut off abruptly... NINTH BREAK The show resumes in the middle of another call with someone who sounds just a little bit gay, (Randy).

Gardening calendar
Gardening jobs
Garden type
Hanging baskets
Hanging baskets have a cheerful and spacious effect. You can hang one by your front door as a colourful welcome, or on walls or pergolas, but they are also very suitable for your roof garden, patio or balcony. From Britain, the cottage baskets in particular have become very popular all over Europe.
Use your imagination
Hanging pots or baskets can be bought complete with flowers, but it is much nicer to use your own imagination and create your own basket with your favourite colours and fragrances. Any pot or basket will do as long as excess water can drain away. Very popular are the wire baskets that can be lined with spagnum moss for a natural look. You can also use coconut matting. Willow baskets come in all shapes and sizes and are very decorative, as are wooden baskets. Terra cotta pots and even plastic baskets can be used as hanging baskets.
Use a three point hanging system
For stability use a three point hanging system from heavy-duty string or, even better, chain. These are then attached to the rim of the basket. As a filled basket can be fairly heavy, it is best to suspend it from reasonably strong chain. If you want to hang your basket quite high, you might want to use a pulley system. That way you don't have to use steps each time you water your basket.
Filling the basket
- Place the basket on top of a bucket to stop it from rolling about. Line the basket with a thick layer of spagnum moss (this retains a lot of water), coconut matting or, in wooden baskets, a plastic liner. In the latter case, don't forget to pierce some holes in the liner to allow for drainage. Now you can put some potting compost in the basket. You could also mix in some special tub plant food in which case you don't have to add any fertilizer in the first few weeks.
- If you use a wire basket and you want plants to grow out of the side of the basket, you simply cut some slits into the lining, push the young plants through and add some more compost.
- You will get the best result when you plant the taller growing plants somewhat at an angle at the edge of the basket and the more bushy ones in the centre. This way you won't get a dull, flat top!
- Add more soil to about 2 cm from the rim of the pot or basket. Water the basket thoroughly to ensure the roots make proper contact with the soil so the plant will take root as soon as possible.
- After about two weeks it is time to add extra food. The many plants that grow in a relatively small amount of soil will rapidly use up the available nutrients resulting in spindly, anaemic looking plants.
- Keep on watering regularly. A filled basket requires enormous amounts of water every day, especially on warm days.
Tip: Place a small terra cotta pot in larger baskets. This can serve as a water reservoir. It also prevents plant from getting damaged by watering when this is done through the pot.
Tip: Fill a large tub (a cement-mixing tub for instance) with water and leave it to warm up slightly. Dip your basket in the tub and leave it for about half an hour. This way the soil and the roots will get saturated and can go without watering for a few days. If you have several baskets you can dip them in one after another. This saves water and is very handy when you want to go away for a few days.

London Private Equity Firms Get in on the Games
By Ayesha Javed from WSJ's Private Equity Beat.
A host of private equity firms with London offices have been getting into the Olympic Games spirit while others have been making contingency preparations for the upcoming event in London.
U.K. firm Phoenix Equity Partners last week held its own Olympic games – dubbed the "Phoenix Olympics" – on West Wittering beach "in gusty conditions", said Hugh Lenon, Managing Partner of Phoenix. The games, in which staff at the firm took part, included mixed beach volleyball, swimming and table tennis. The games were "all very competitive," Lenon added.

Outlook 2013: Elementary school classrooms, curriculum changing in Oklahoma
Young children learning all the basics of reading, math and other subjects are going to school with a new style of classroom and teaching.
And even more changes are on the horizon, said Derrel Fincher, director of learning technologies at the state Education Department.
One of the most evident changes can be seen in classrooms themselves.
Students are working together across grade levels, Fincher said. Project-based learning is more common. Remote laboratories and simulators will allow students in small or rural schools to experience the world like students in large, urban districts, Fincher said.
"That's something that will be very powerful for students to do," he said.
Identifying weaknesses
Computers can identify areas where children struggle, like homonyms or capitalization. Education programs can adapt to those needs, Fincher said.
"It can focus more on those areas that you're struggling with instead of giving the same thing to everybody," he said.
Also, curriculum is changing rapidly.
Teachers and students now have access to a vast amount of data, and the amount of knowledge available to the world will only expand.
It will allow students to shift from finding data to analyzing it, Fincher said. It's a shift from what to why.
"Data used to be the end point," he said. "Now it's the beginning point."
Curriculum is blossoming from critical facts to critical thinking, Fincher said.
"What are the essential things kids need to know?" he said. "How do you tap into their interests, desires and wants?"
Teachers have access to a limitless amount of electronic content — lesson plans, digital books, studies. And the information available is growing and improving, Fincher said.
"This is where crowdsourcing comes in," he said. "Teachers are very collaborative. They like to share. They like to work with others. They will create these wonderful lessons and improve them."
Embracing changes
The dramatic changes that have happened in recent years — and the revolutions on the horizon — can be tough for some teachers, Fincher said. But for the most part, teachers and administrators are embracing the changes.
"You sometimes hear that people are afraid of doing something or change, and that's really not the case," Fincher said.
While few teachers push back against development, most are excited once they see how changes can improve their classrooms, Fincher said.
"Teachers get into teaching to help children," Fincher said, "and they see how this can help children."
The key, he said, will be to provide training and information to teachers about how to apply all these strategies in the classroom.
"People talk about all these great things that are going to happen," Fincher said. "You can't just put things randomly in a class and say this will change things forever."
But some things won't change, Fincher said. Classrooms will still exist, and dynamic, effective teachers will always be in demand.
"You need a place where you can bring students together," he said. "Especially young ones — they need a safe environment where they can learn. That won't go away. Teachers won't go away."

A federal judge has opted not to slap the Justice Department with a finding of prosecutorial misconduct for mishandling the manslaughter case against Blackwater Worldwide security guards.
U.S. District Judge Ricardo Urbina says prosecutors distorted testimony, violated its policies and withheld evidence during an investigation into a deadly 2007 shooting in Iraq. Urbina threw out all charges against the five security contractors from the NC based company late last month. The company is now known as XE.
But in a ruling Tuesday, Urbina said he wouldn't take what he called the "extreme" step of prohibiting prosecutors from reviving the case.
Had Urbina ruled that prosecutors committed misconduct, it could have triggered an internal investigation and led to sanctions against the prosecutors.

"I'm pleased with how my son's birth announcements came out. I liked how I could put multiple pictures on it. The quality of the printing was excellent and the pictures were clear and had no issues. I do wish this card came with an option to put a picture on the back though."
"I chose this design because I couldn't pick just one or two pictures from our newborn session to use, and this was a great way to choose 5 without it seeming cluttered. It was the perfect choice to introduce our baby!"
"Loved this card, it facilitated both a customized thank you but also a classy announcement! It served a duel purpose and everyone loved it! I highly recommend this card to save money and time!"
"This was the first time I used tinyprints and I'm so glad I did! Very easy to navigate and announcements turned out perfectly"
"I was a little worried that the resolutions of the pictures was going to be too high. But when I received them in the mail, the way I placed the pictures in the template is exactly as they printed and the quality was clear and crisp. I would totally order again VERY satisfied."

Historical Traveler Reviews Courtyard By Marriott Fisherman's Wharf San Francisco
Goods and bads - Read review
This hotel is a mixed bag of goods and bads. Depending on your needs, this hotel may be a perfect fit for you or a nightmare.
Goods: 1. Inexpensive, especially for the area. 2. Walking distance to all Wharf activities. 3. A hub of local activity till about 10:30pm. 4. A VERY excellent staff, especially Edward the concierge.
Bads: 1. It needs a makeover. 2. Close to NO soundproofing from the streets and from the neighbors. 3. Proximity to Wharf and activities makes the area have its tiny handful of unsavory folks
Summary: If you can deal with the bads, its a great deal. We were two women traveling together for a weekend (outdoors San Fran activities most of the time) and enjoyed our stay. If you are looking for luxury, pampering, long term stays, a business environment, and quietness...go elsewhere.
Average Courtyard Property
I stay at Marriott properties, particularly Courtyards, over 100 nights a year and have seen just about everything at this point.
The hotel is well located in the heart of Fisherman's Wharf. My room was really big and overlooked a courtyard with some shops and a fast food restaurant.
The decor and condition of the bathroom were okay, not really new and fresh but not terrible either. It was below average for a Courtyard in my opinion.
The hallways are labyrinth-like and long, so request a room near the elevator if you want to avoid a long walk.
Nice location, but old rooms
Good location, nice staff, no rollaway charge which was nice, but hotel rooms need upgrading. Toilets were the kind of toilets in public restrooms- no fans or heat lamps in bathrooms either. It just seemed old.
These people are nuts! This is a great hotel
I booked a room at this hotel thru the Marriott website at a rate of $129/night for three nights, December 10-12, 2004. I called the hotel from the airport for directions and got clear, concise and accurate diretions. Upon check-in, the Concierge greeted us and spoke to my wife while I checked in (it was just the two of us). Jammie, the desk clerk was as pleasant as you could ask for. We received a king/ns room on the second floor, which faced Beach overlooking the hotel sign.
The room was spacious with a king bed, a sleeper sofa, coffee table, desk with FREE high-speed internet access, a large entertainment center with a nice-size TV, plenty of closet space with hangers and all the usual, ironing board, hairdryer, etc. The bed was very comfortable, but beds are a personal preference. The bathroom was clean and everything functioned properly (ie. the tub & sink didn't backup and there was plenty of HOT water).
We were there Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights and did not have any problems with noise, nor were we awakened by anything from being so close to the street.
You can't beat the convenience of the location of this hotel. If you want to see the sights around Fisherman's Wharf, this is the place. We did other things in the city, but mainly stayed around FW. If you leave out the back of the hotel, you come out on Jackson Ave, and are only a few blocks from Pier 41 for the Alcatraz tours and Pier 39 for restaurants, etc. There's a Walgreen's next door open to midnight, which was nice as well. The hotel does offer parking in the garage next to the hotel which was reasonable and convenient.
I would definitely stay here again. It would have been nice to have a cheaper rate, but this was about as cheap as I could find for a nice hotel. If it bothers you, I did notice that our room wasn't cleaned until mid afternoon. We were always out, but would stop in now and then and I notice this. However, housekeeping does a very nice job cleaning and straightening the room.
Trash Trucks or Bar Fights - take your pick - but still OK
Took out of town family for the Fisherman's Wharf experience on a Tuesday (November 30th). Booked two rooms via the internet based on location, price & my personal knowledge of the area (everything within a short walk). My room was facing Beach St. Yes there is traffic & trash trucks in the early AM, so light sleepers would be best to opt for a room facing the garage. The other members of the family had a room directly over the bar mentioned in other reviews. The bar is a "Hooters" and clientele gathered in the courtyard below their window. They witnessed two bar fights and this was only a Tuesday!
Now for the upside - close to everything, including the Embarcadero street cars. No problems with street folks during our visit, but that could be do to it being a weekday in the winter. Parking is the best deal of all - $10.00 with free in and out privlidges. Staff, friendly and helpful. Easy access to park & unload baggage - self serve carts - so not tipping as it is self serve and self park. I disagree that the buffet was not a good deal. You can order off the menu or opt for the buffet. Though not inexpensive, it is a nice quiet refuge, especially for breakfast. Plenty of take out places within the area. In & out Burger is on the premises.
All it all it served our purpose. I would advise anyone driving in to the area during the off season during the week, to check about the area & see if cheaper quieter accomodations are available.
Older maps and travel guides show this location as a Howard Johnsons, however it converted to a Courtyard Marriott some time in the late 90's, I believe. It is operated by an independent operator under the Marriott banner.
Loved the Marriott Courtyard
We stayed at the Marriott Courtyard, Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco in late September, 2004. We had booked a room with a queen size bed, but upon check-in were given a room with a king size bed and also a sofa at no extra cost. We found the room very comfortable and clean and the staff courteous and accommodating. Location was convenient, however, we found Fisherman's Wharf to be a bit on the "seedy" side, which was in no way a reflection of the hotel itself. Only complaint was concierge's recommendation of a good seafood restaurant (Neptune's Palace). We found the quality of the food inferior and your typical tourist trap.
While the location is good for one day of tourist activities, for the price you would be better advised to stay in one of S.F.'s true luxury hotels, which also all provide convenient access to all the best sites in the city.
We stayed in one of the "suites" (a large one room with an alcove). All suites overlook the street where garbage is picked up at 5 am and the contstant truck and bus traffic from that point on is guaranteed to keep you awake. It is like staying at a motel overlooking a freeway. We are from New York and generally not bothered by noise, but nobody wants to be awakend at 5 am for $200 a night while on vacation. The staff is unapologetic and the hotel offers very few services.
...checked out after one night for a room at the Palace Hotel where surprisingly we ended up with a better room rate than this overrated "motor-lodge."
Great location
Great place. Stayed there for 8 day. Superb staff and location. Did not have to rent a car since the bus stop and cable car is a block away. Having Denny's, IHOP, and Walgreen nearby is a bonus.
Good location
The location was very near perfect - an easy walk to the cable cars and Fisherman's Wharf. The quality of the rooms are somewhat below that of typical Marriott accommodations. Our view through the window was of the adjacent parking garage. We didn't care because you don't go to San Francisco to spend your time in a hotel room. The room was clean, comfortable, and noise-free. Be aware that parking costs are fairly steep, upwards of $30/day. The Courtyard cut our cost to $10/day plus any addition fees for time spent beyond our hotel stay. The breakfast costs are also high. If you eat a light breakfast, opt-out of their breakfast plan and avoid their buffet. There are plenty of local shops to choose from. Hope this helps!
Good location, but bad exterior
Great location, steps away from the cable car turn around, 2 blocks from the cafes, next door to the Cannery, and within a 2-3 min walk from G. Square.
Had 2 rooms, one of which was on the street, so the tour buses and trash trucks went by starting at 6 am, the other overlooked the couryard and had loud live music that started in the afternoon and went until 10 pm, so if your a night person, request a room that overlooks the courtyard. Biggest problem was the odor outside of the entrance.
Staff blamed it on the Homeless in the area that used a nearby alleyway as a restroom, and the runoff ran into the driveway.
Staff was the most helpful i've ever had in SF, gave us great tips and directions, and got us a great rate for a car to the airport, instead of a shuttle

Entertainment roundtable: Gypsy girls, Twilight and evil award shows
"Roundtable, Entertainment Roundtable." There's just something about that James Bond vibe in the air which makes movies a little bit more fun. So I asked out resident entertainment gurus what they thought of 007's return, the new hot actors in Hollywood, dream concerts at the Ford Center and the painful necessity of award shows. Here are their answers – shaken, not stirred. 1. Quantum of Solace is out. What's your take on the current status of the James Bond franchise and which is your favorite of the movies? Entertainment writer Brandy McDonnell: "Quantum of Solace" made more than $70 million its opening weekend, a record for a Bond movie. It think the franchise is in great shape. In my opinion, to find the best of the Bond movies, you have to go all the way back to the second movie, "From Russia with Love." Intrigue, romance, assassins with knives in their shoes, gypsy girls fighting to the death, great culinary advice (only bad guys drink red wine with fish) and lots and lots of Sean Connery. Nobody does it better." Entertainment Editor Gene Triplett: "The franchise is fully revived and kicking with Daniel Craig filling the 007 role. Like I said in my review of "Quantum of Solace," he's what makes this film and "Casino Royale" (2006) better than anything in the series since Sean Connery hung up his Beretta and turned in his license to kill. Stone-faced Craig is superb, bringing to life the no-nonsense Bond that creator Ian Fleming intended -- dark, deadly, damaged and hard as gunmetal. But my favorite is still "Goldfinger," even though they started taking things over the top in that one. Connery really owned it by that time, and for all time in my book." Assistant Entertainment Editor George Lang: I'm still partial to "From Russia With Love" and "Goldfinger." Time will tell if "Casino Royale" and "Quantum of Solace" hold up as well 45 years from now. I think there's a good chance. The reinvention of James Bond has as much to do with the Bourne films as it does the increasing darkness of our heroes, but it came at a crucial juncture in the franchise -- if they didn't infuse the character with emotion and more physicality, it would have just fallen deeper into self-parody. Other than Christopher Nolan's Batman films, this is the most artistically successful reboot of a series, though it will not have reached its zenith until Russell Brand takes over the character in 2015. Bwah! Assistant Features Editor Matt Price: "It's going strong. I think some people are a little surprised at the brutality of this James Bond - he's certainly much less of a quipper than most of the previous 007s. But, that's a deliberate choice, partially because of Austin Powers, and partially because that may be where escapist entertainment is going -- look how dark "The Dark Knight" was. "As far as my favorite "Bond" movie, it's a tough call. I re-watched a lot of them in order to write up synopses for our 007 site at www.newsok.com/bond. "Dr. No" held up. "Goldfinger" is probably my overall favorite. "The Spy Who Loved Me" is maybe the best Roger Moore episode." 2. A lot of folks are talking about "Twilight" star Robert Pattinson being the next big thing. Who is your pick for the next young breakout performer in music or movies? McDonnell: "Twilight" is so big that everyone associated with the film has the chance to become the next big overnight sensation, particularly Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Cam Gigandet." "I think we'll see Christopher Mintz-Plasse of "Role Models" and "Superbad" become the next Michael Cera, sort of the ultra-geeky but still somewhat cool guy." Triplett: "High School Musical 3" was meant as a launching pad for Zac Efron's grown-up movie career, and the remake of "Footloose" should turn the trick when it finally comes out in 2010. On the female side, my pick is Kat Dennings. Her sultry presence stole scene after scene away from Michael Cera in "Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist." Musically I'll go out on a limb and say Tulsa-based hard rock band Crooked X will make big noise when their debut album releases on EMI Records in January. They've already opened for KISS and Ted Nugent and appeared on CBS' "Early Show" -- and they're only 14 years old." Lang: Everything is so transitory, it's hard to tell -- I thought Evan Rachel Wood would be the next Nicole Kidman, but then Kristen Stewart became the next Evan Rachel Wood while Evan Rachel Wood was becoming the next Dita Von Teese. But enough of that. As female actors go, I think Kat Dennings from "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" has a great future. And I think that after "Watchmen," Jeffrey Dean Morgan is going to be huge, and not in that "couldn't afford Robert Downey Jr" kind of way that he is now. Price: "He may have already "broken out," but I certainly enjoy the work of Michael Cera, and am looking forward to seeing him in "Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life," based on the graphic novel by Bryan Lee O'Malley and directed by Edgar Wright." 3. Coldplay has come and gone. Is there still a dream concert you'd like to see at the Ford Center? Lang: I think the only real answer is U2. If U2 plays the Ford in '09, then the arena has done everything it was designed to do. McDonnell: "After sitting in awe of Page and Plant back in 1998 at the Cox Convention Center, all I want to see at the Ford Center is Led Zeppelin in concert. Is that too much to ask?" Triplett: "Neil Young, with Wilco and Son Volt opening. Of course, that'll never happen since former Uncle Tupelo partners Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar haven't spoken to one another in years. But you said "dream.'" Price: "It's too bad The Police didn't make it here on their reunion tour. As far as more current superstars, how about My Chemical Romance?" 4. My wife forced me to watch the CMAs, which made me wonder about your thoughts on award shows. Are any of the hundreds that are out there worth watching? If so, which ones? McDonnell: "Anyone who read my live-blog on the CMA Awards, or any past awards shows, knows that I'm not big on the scripted banter, the cheesy video montages, the blustery acceptance speeches of awards shows. Awards shows do have their place, but there are too many of them these days. "As far as music awards shows, the best ones are the ones with lots of performances, particularly those debuting new songs. That really seems to be the purpose of many of them, along with creating a place for fashion designers to show off their latest creations on almost frighteningly thin celebrities." Triplett: "The Oscars and Golden Globes are the only award shows that hold interest for me, but only if one or more of my favorites are up for trophies. Music award shows leave me cold because they're more about sales than merit." Price: "Oh, I think it entirely depends what you like. Many of them have a few great moments spread over a too-long running time. They're probably best to TiVo or DVR or whatever your preferred record-and-fast-forward strategy is." Lang: "How can you not love spending four and a half hours watching the interminable lionizing of other people's work -- it's scintillating! And no award show is complete without the "bring out yer dead" portion of the evening. I despise awards shows, but in this business they are a necessary evil. Eeeeevillll."

Microsoft officials confirmed on April 2 what those of us who keep tabs on Windows operating-system leaks have known for a while: The Windows 8.1 Update, which the company is beginning to roll out starting today, makes Windows 8 a lot more usable for those of us who rely on mice and keyboards.Windows 8.1 Update Will Bring Easier Access To Taskbar and Apps [zdnet.com]
On April 2, during the first day of the company's Build 2014 show, officials showed off the latest update for Windows 8.1, known officially as "Windows 8.1 Update." As leaks and tipsters have made plain in recent months, the 8.1 Update adds new capabilities, such as easier access to the taskbar with pinnable apps; inclusion of new, context-sensitive menus by right clicking on apps; and the ability to more easily close and navigate across Desktop and Metro-Style apps.
Regardless of any rumors you may have read, the Metro Start Screen isn't going away. On PCs and other devices that are more likely to be used with keyboards and mice, Windows 8.1 Update will boot to the Desktop screen, rather than the Metro/tiled screen. On touch tablets, the Metro/tiled screen will still be the default boot-up screen, as it is currently with Windows 8.1.

Ben and Jerry Launches 'Anchorman'-Inspired Ice Cream Flavor
- Wed Oct 23, 2013, 7:49 AM GMT
The Ron Burgundy-approved flavor 'Scotchy Scotch Scotch' is a mix of butterscotch ice cream with ribbons of butterscotch swirl.READ MORE
Will Ferrell stars as Ron Burgundy, the top-rated anchorman in San Diego in the '70s. When feminism marches into the newsroom in the form of ambitious newswoman Veronica Corningstone (Applegate), Ron is willing to play along at first-as long as Veronica stays in her place, covering cat fashion shows, cooking, and other "female" interests. But when Veronica refuses to settle for being eye candy and steps behind the news desk, it's more than a battle between two perfectly coiffed anchor-persons...it's war.

Though the movie's actors are eager to film the second movie, Applegate once again affirms the fact that the project depends on the finances.READ MORE
Admitting that the budget issue is still their number one problem of not producing the sequel, Ferrel suggests fans to write to Paramount.READ MORE
In order to pull back up the sequel project, director Adam McKay and producer/star Will Ferrell planned to produce a stage musical edition first.READ MORE
Though the project has been shelved, the actor still urges movie bosses to make 'Anchorman 2' because 'it could be as playful and as fun as the original.'READ MORE
Even though some of the actors had agreed to cut their price, the financial problem still couldn't be sholved which made the sequel to 2004 film meet dead end.READ MORE

max profit Trade routes

The best thing I found early on was just to set a convoy to 'profit' and to have them hit as many ports as the game will allow in one pass. I think its around 20 ports. Then, as soon as you have 3 or more cities doing well have one convoy set to "sell and supply" and one set to "procure raw materials" and have them go in between the cities that you've built up. This will help keep your warehouses stock while also boosting the prosperity of all your towns. With 6 built up cities and multiple convoys doing just that I currently have over 17 million in cash. The thing I found with this game is not to hold onto money. As soon as you have some cash invest it in more boats, more businesses, etc and soon enough you'll have more money than you know what to do with.
To stay a little more on topic I'm not entirely sure that there is one golden trade route because the prices fluctuate a bit due to supply and demand. Like I said, just make "profit" routes out of as many stops as possible that way your convoy carries a selection of goods to srvice all the stops. And, it should go without saying, the more boats in a convoy the better. That way the convoy can stock up on as much as possible.
Well I get up in the morning and I get my brief. I go out and stare at the world in complete disbelief. It's not righteous indignation that makes me complain. It's the fact that I always have to explain. - Van Morrison

Sound smart at parties: The health news you missed this week
As you head out to enjoy your Saturday evening, take a quick glance at what happened this past week.
1. Fewer mental health beds, coming soon in OKC
Deaconess Hospital is closing its Bethany hospital, which had almost 60 psychiatric and geriatric behavioral health beds.
Oklahoma's mental health commissioner Terri White had some choice words to say about it:
"The department is very concerned about loss of any psychiatric beds, particularly this number of beds, given that we already have an issue where law enforcement is driving hundreds of miles trying to find someone a psychiatric bed," White said. "The system is already overloaded."
And Sheriff John Whetsel dubbed it a "horrible decision":
"I know there's a bottom line for their shareholders," Whetsel said. "But I'm more concerned about the bottom line for law enforcement, the safety of our community and the safety of those who have mental health issues."
Story: With hospital's closure, Oklahoma County will have fewer psychiatric beds

2. More people are enrolling in health insurance plans
It looks like HealthCare.gov might be working now. Maybe?
So far, 1,673 Oklahomans have enrolled in health insurance plans that will begin Jan. 1. And 21,261 Oklahomans have finished their applications for coverage and are eligible to enroll in a plan through the marketplace.
The deadline to sign up if you want your coverage to start Jan. 1 is Dec. 23.

3. Oklahoma still ranks in the bottom 10 for health
Oklahoma ranks No. 44 in overall health, according to a report released this past week.
Oklahoma has long had some of the worst health statistics in the nation. Our state ranks poorly for its high rates of obesity, heart disease, diabetes and a list of other things.
However, Oklahoma did see improvement in the number of adults who smoke, the number of people who die from heart disease and the number of people hospitalized for preventable reasons.

4. A virus that's difficult to pronounce has made its way to the Western Hemisphere
The World Health Organization announced this week that a viral disease known as Chikungunya fever has made its way to the Western Hemisphere.
NPR reports that before the current outbreak in the Caribbean, chikungunya was found only in parts of sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and southern Europe.
Chikungunya fever is a viral disease transmitted to humans by the bite of infected mosquitoes. Add this to the list of reasons to hate mosquitoes.

Dawg Music, a small label run by bluegrass musician David Grisman and his business partner Craig Miller, accuses those who carry Grisman's catalog of knowingly selling his works with sometimes poor or nonexistent compensation, and without his consent. The suit implicates both labels and their online store partners. Two of the largest record producers in the industry, Universal Music Group and Warner Music, are alleged to have neglected Dawg Music's copyrights and royalties when signing deals with major online services.
Online stores are guilty by association, according to the complaint. The suit claims that in addition to iTunes, seven other outlets -- AOL Music Now, Buy.com, Microsoft's MSN.com, Napster, RealNetworks' Rhapsody, Wal-Mart.com, and Yahoo Music -- "are also culpable by agreeing to host and sell the unsanctioned copies from their servers," notes AppleInsider.

As Khloé Kardashian's marriage to Lamar Odom is crumbling in the wake of his alleged drug problem and stories about the basketball star cheating, the reality star has opened up with a poignant comment.
"As much as I wish I were made of steel … I'm not," she tweeted on Sunday.
The famously funny Keeping Up with the Kardashians star then added via Twitter, "I'm pretty damn close to it though he he."
But Khlo? appeared to be trying to laugh through the tears, as fans know the reality TV sister has been under pressure for weeks after Lamar was accused of cheating on her by two different alleged mistresses and then, the basketball player was arrested for DUI on Friday.
