In a report released by AMP NATSEM, entitled Little Australians, household financial health affects the overall development of a child. In families with at least one type of financial difficulty, 20% of the 4 and 5-year-olds were reported to have low learning and social-emotional development.
In order to avoid financial difficulties that might effect your child's emotional development, here are a few easy yet effective approaches to follow.
First thing, a checklist on your financial health is a must and a household budget is a pre-requisite. To help distinguish between wants and needs, use an online budget tracker. Another effective strategy is to tackle credit card debt aggressively. Lastly, have a savings plan for your child's education. Stay away from instant financial strain at the beginning of the school year by setting money aside ahead of time.

With the midseason premiere less than 2 weeks away. AMC has finally posted the titles and synopses for the remainder of season 4 of "The Walking Dead." Wetpaint shared the list on Jan. 29 and now we can get a glimpse of what lies ahead in the world of Walkers. This article contains spoilers so read on at your own risk.
This is the AMC synopsis for the second half of the season on the whole:
"Following the devastating events of the midseason finale, Rick and the group are still reeling from the loss of their home, family, and friends. With the destruction of the prison, we see the group of survivors broken apart and sent on divergent paths, unsure of everyone else's fate. What was a challenging life behind fences and walls grows that much more perilous and precious as they are exposed to new dangers, new enemies, and heartbreaking choices. They will have their faith thoroughly tested -- a faith that breaks some of them and redeems others."
Episode 9 is titled "After" and airs Sunday, Feb. 9. The synopsis reads:
"Rick deals with old wounds; prison residents consider if survival will be enough."
This is the episode that we all know by now will be Rick and Carl-centric. We also expect to learn more about Michonne's past before the zombie apocalypse.
Episode 10 is titled "Inmates" and will air on Feb. 16. The synopsis says:
"In the quest for stability and safety, the group faces many obstacles."
That pretty much tells us nothing but episode director Tricia Brock teased that it would focus on 4 separate storylines. She went on to say that it would have "some of the oddest couplings of groups you've seen" on the show. "There was violence, difficulty in dealing with one another, terror. It's a very intimate episode. We see how these very odd groups were thrown together and how they deal with that." Which 4 storylines will be featured is as yet unknown.
Episode 11 is called "Claimed" and airs on Feb. 23. The synopsis reads:
"A number of immediate threats plague Rick; group members deal with their past."
It looks as if Rick will feature prominently in this episode but the source of threats remains unclear. Which members of the group will have to face their pasts is intriguing. It could be referring to Michonne or maybe Bob Stookey who has now outlived 2 groups of survivors. It might have to do with Tara who may be trying to join up with one of the groups of prison survivors, a move that would put her in some hot water after she took part in the attack on the prison.
Episode 12 is entitled "Still" and will be shown on March 2. The synopsis says that:
"An enlightening mission springs from a request from one of the group members."
This could be when we meet Eugene, Abraham and Rosita on their way to Washington D.C. to get some answers. In the comic books, Eugene is a scientist who claims to know how the zombie apocalypse started. Or it might be related to that weird "sanctuary" radio message.
Episode 13 is ominously called "Alone" and will be shown on March 9. The synopsis reads:
"One group finds a shelter; a group has a realization about protection."
The vagueness of this synopsis makes it hard to guess anything about what might be happening except that at least one group is safe. It seems to imply there are now only two groups so maybe some of the others have reconnected by now.
Episode 14 is "The Grove" and will air on March 16. The synopsis says:
"After establishing a new shelter, the group considers things returning to the way they used to be."
If you recall, in the recently released promos, Rick has been warning to that things will never be the way they were and that we can't look back so this synopsis may be misleading. We aren't even sure who is in this group, either.
Episode 15 is called "Us" and will air March 23. The synopsis for this one is really short:
"Survivors rely on brutality and faith."
Wow! Not much to go on here but it could the arrival of "the Hunters."
Episode 16 is the season finale and is called "A." It will be shown on March 30. Here's the synopsis:
"Many paths collide; Rick faces sheer brutality; the group struggles to survive."
The wording "The group" implies everyone is back together, at least whoever is still alive. Will Carol or Morgan Jones be part of the group by this time? Norman Reedus said of the episode that it would be a "very ambitious" episode, adding "they went big with it." According to an AMC executive, the finale will give us glimpse into where season 5 will be headed.
What do you think of these episode titles and descriptions? You have any theories or questions?
Mark your calendars for Feb. 9 when "The Walking Dead" returns on AMC.

'Ghost Stories' is the sixth studio album by British rock band Coldplay. The album, co-produced by Coldplay with Paul Epworth as well as 'Mylo Xyloto' producers Daniel Green and Rik Simpson, is a mystical, magical journey into the world of love, loss and obsession. With all the upbeat, happy spring songs splattering onto new albums and radio stations across the world, 'Ghost Stories' slows it down and narrates a tragic story of destruction and devastation – and ultimately euphoria.
'Ghost Stories' starts out with a yoga-esque type of sound, with women harmonizing soothing tunes as the beautiful bass kicks in with the familiar Coldplay sound we all have grown to love. 'I think of you, I haven't slept, you're always in my head,' moans Chris Martin.
The troubled relationship between Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow started to take its toll during the recording of 'Ghost Stories.' It's quite clear the heartbreak and pain the twosome experienced as each track tells the story of their twisted and troubled romance.
Martin's hypnotic voice blended with brilliant production gives the album a chilling feel and opens up your eyes to the person you're in love with at this moment. Whether it be someone you're in a current relationship with or the one you can't get out of your head, the entire album is an eye-opener into your life of love, pain, joy and the next step into the unknown, which is quite scary. Forbidden love is a bitch, but sometimes the most amazing love stories come when you least expect it. Coldplay always knows how to capture the overall wavelength of serious music lovers around the planet.
'Ghost Stories' may not be the most memorable work from Coldplay, but it definitely redefines songs of misery, loneliness and love and is probably something Chris Martin wants to eventually forget anyway. The band continuously creates relaxing music molding them into one of the most successful rock bands of our generation. Sit back, relax and listen to one of the most tragic and tender love/ghost stories ever told by a rock band.

Sitting on one of Star Plaza's ledges, you first notice the Asian woman glancing at you. Across the way, a Latino man stares straight forward. Walk to another vantage point: You spot a Caucasian woman brushing hair back from her eyes; an African-American man smiling intothe sun.
"There is actually a dialogue presented here," explains Guy-Vincent Ricketti, Cleveland gallery owner, artist and curator of Identity, a public art installation on display through Oct. 28 in the public plaza at the corner of Euclid Avenue and East 14th Street. "Part of the concept of Identity was to create and reflect images of people back to themselves. … We are looking at ourselves, who we want to become and who we can be."
Two-sided photo installations depicting close-up portraits of people Ricketti photographed in and around downtown rise subtly from the landscape. Four-sided totems — measuring 5 1/2 inches wide and 10 feet tall — are interspersed in between, adorned with more photos, as well as U.S.
Census text and statistics related to the people of various races who call Cuyahoga County home.
Ricketti, who trained at the Cleveland Institute of Art and Columbus School of Design, says the installation asks viewers to think about their relationships and perceptions between individuals, as well as the larger identity of the community and region.
"There's a nice energy to it that's powerful and subdued at once," Ricketti says, adding it took him six months to develop and refine his idea for the mixed-media installation that went on display in late July. He plans it to be the first in a series.
In addition to the photographs, a 2 1/2-minute supplemental video, "Identity 1.0," plays at random intervals on large video screens attached to the Wyndham Hotel and Hanna Building that overlook the plaza. Ricketti says the unscheduled viewings are a way to reinforce the idea of the role serendipity and chance play in connecting us all.
An indoor exhibit curated by Ricketti at his nearby Elevation Art gallery at 1240 Huron Road also ties into the Identity concept and is open by appointment through the end of September.
"We have the ability to reach out to the city and the global community," Ricketti says.
"Showcasing artist talent is a chance to change identity and how we are perceived as a community."— Marissa Mikolak

Railings provide an alternative to palisade systems with a much less severe appearance. It is an attractive fencing system manufactured in either tube or solid bar with a galvanized or polyester coated finish. It offers low to medium security and is normally used in areas where a more decorative finish is required and where the aim is to protect and segregate, rather than to exclude.
There are a number of different styles including bow top and vertical bar, giving the visual appeal of traditional railings.
Design and Specification Considerations for Recreational Areas
In all cases the fencing should not contain any safety hazards and RoSPA make use of the control recommendations contained in EN 1176 (the play equipment standard) when assessing fences.
Following RoSPA guidelines, fences should be constructed and erected in accordance with BS 1722 - 9, with a minimum height of 1.0m recommended.
Bow Top Railings
These railings can be specifically designed and manufactured to hit the safety regulations required for play areas, residential areas and schools therefore making us RoSPA approved. The shaping of the arched top and the vertical tubing spacing to the horizontal railing are positioned specifically to avoid head and limb traps.
Vertical Bar Railings
These systems are available as both square and round vertical tube railings. Square verticals are positioned diamond to view to give maximum strength and aesthetic appearance and the tops of the tubes can be either flat or angle cut. Round verticals can also be supplied with optional flat cut or angle cut profile. Heights from 1.5 to 2.4 metres are available.

Driver avoids serious injury after run-in with mooseJune 16,2013Staff Writer
KILLINGTON — A Middlesex motorist avoided serious injury following a collision with a moose Saturday night.
According to State Police, shortly after 9 p.m., Maurice A. Hebert, 65, was driving east on Route 4 in a 2012 Jeep Wrangler when a moose emerged from the woods and struck the passenger's side of Hebert's vehicle.
Hebert sustained minor scrapes, as did his passenger, Rosemary Hebert, 63, of Middlesex. A 15-year-old juvenile passenger was not injured. The vehicle sustained damage to the front, rear and passenger side and was towed from the scene.
The moose's condition was not available.MORE IN This Just In

X-ray Fluorescence Analyzers
X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysis is a widely used method of elemental analysis providing both qualitative aud quantitative compositional information. Among its advantages are the wide range of measurable elements covering nearly the entire periodic system. X-ray fluorescence is the emission of fluorescent X-rays from a material that has been excited by bombarding with high-energy X-rays or gamma rays. X-ray Fluorescence analysis is widely used for elemental analysis and chemical analysis, particularly in the investigation of metals, glass, ceramics and building materials, and for research in geochemistry, forensic science and archaeology.

Longtime Philadelphia mafia figure Gaeton Lucibello who as indicted along with reputed Philly mob boss Joseph "Uncle Joe" Ligambi and 11 others has decided to plead guilty. Lucibello is described as a soldier in the Philly mob and a close associate of reputed under boss Joseph "Mousie" Massimino. The intentions of Lucibello to plead guilty was filled Thursday with Judge Eduardo C. Robreno. Although details of his plea deal have not yet been made public sources confirm he is looking at a sentence of up to five years.
"Gaeton Lucibello"
Lucibello beat a federal racketeering case which tied him to several gangland hits back in 1996 where he testified on his own behalf. He was able to convince a jury that he was not a member of La Cosa Nostra or the Philly mob. Sources claim Lucibello was concerned about long time gambling associate Jack Buscemi who has turned rat and would of testified against him. Authorities claim Buscemi is one of the biggest illegal bookmakers in Philadelphia and that he reported to Lucibello.
Lucibello like fellow co-defendants Massimino , Ligambi, and others are being held without bail while they await trial for racketeering conspiracy charges. The good thing for the rest of the mobsters involved is that Lucibello has not agreed to cooperate with authorities while agreeing to his pea deal.
The plea deal agreed to by Lucibello was signed but not sealed and in a surprising move he withdrew his guilty plea and decided against the deal he previously agreed to. So Lucibello will now go to trial with fellow Philly mobsters which is set for September 4th. If convicted prison terms are expected to be significantly more then the 63 months as was offered to Lucibello in the plea deal.

Employment of 18- and 19-year-olds not enrolled in school
March 28, 2007
High school graduates not enrolled in college during the Octobers when they were ages 18 or 19 were employed 75 percent of the weeks between the October when they were age 18 and the following October.
By comparison, high school dropouts were employed 55 percent of the weeks between the October when they were age 18 and the following October.
Regardless of the level of educational attainment, men were employed a larger percent of weeks than women, and whites were employed a larger percent of weeks than blacks or Hispanics.
These data are from the National Longitudinal Surveys. Learn more in "America's Youth at 19: School Enrollment, Training, and Employment Transitions between Ages 18 and 19" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-0452. These estimates are based on data collected from respondents who were age 18 in October during the years 1998 to 2003 and age 19 in October from 1999 to 2004.

Cassie is a 1.5 year old Cattle dog/Lab mix. She was happy and playful when she came in and now is showing some signs of getting depressed. She is so sweet and loving. She is listed as not good with kids or dogs because of her Cattle dog breed I however have not observed her being overly interested in either! She would do well with a person who has a dog as she likes to play, she would be an easy second dog to have. She is super sweet! The shelter staff also have mislabeled her as cattle dog-pit mix because of her head shape, however as a cattle dog owner myself know she is cattle dog/labby!Thu, October 23, 2008 - 11:19 AM permalink - 2 comments
Please pass the word about her, she is languishing in the shelter...
here she is with my friend Lori who loves her very much but has a dog who hates other dogs, or she would have adopted her!!
Late summer is my way of not having to say, "where in dogs name has the summer gone???" Remember all those amazing things we had on our summer list? The goals and fun things to do...... While I was on UCD campus checking out a friends art show I stopped by to see the ducks. They had their now big fat babies in tow. The ground was covered in feathers caught in the plants like fluffy flowers. I watched them for a while from a distance and realized I never got out to see them with their little ducklings. Ahhh intentions, I thought. At that very moment the ducks spotted me. They trooped over from every direction, they got right up in my business with their quacking and waddling and carrying on! Okay I get it, get my ducks in a row. I have never seen ducks in a row by the way. This like many old man sayings I have heard many times. Mostly from a parental type, "get your ducks in a row!" My ducks are defiantly not in a row and yet it is late summer. Words of wisdom from nature.....Fri, August 15, 2008 - 8:37 AM permalink - 1 comment
Okay so it is late summer. We know the days will be getting noticeable shorter VERY soon. This is the time to open those closets and cupboards and get to sorting and purging. It is time to look at those goals of ours and figure out which ones we want to keep pursuing , which ones we have met and set new ones! Get clear on what is really important. Here are some questions to help out with this process!
1. Am I happy, what would make me happier?
2. What do I no longer need in my life, am I ready to let it go?
3. Am I holding back in any way that prevents me from having more of what I truly desire?
4. Am I asking for what I really want in my relationships?
5. Am I giving what I really want in my relationships?
6. What changes do I need to make to have a life that has less stress?
7. Am I settling for less than I deserve in ANY area of my life?
8. Where do I want to be in 6 months?
9. Where do I want to be in a year?
10. What needs to change so I can play as hard as I work?
Make room in your life to dream BIG. Do not panic, ask for support instead. Get clear on what you want, then ask questions so you are clear with what others want. One last reminder..... lots of small changes add up to BIG change.
The time is now to get our ducks in a row.
I highly recommend we all get away even if for only a few days. As a life coach I spend time with people who are tired, stressed, overwhelmed and frankly need a break! We all need to recharge our spirits. Most of the people in my circles are giving people, who spend their time loving and caring for others. Giving support is sometimes easier than receiving it!Fri, July 25, 2008 - 8:44 AM permalink - 0 comments
It is amazingly important to take a moment for yourself and get into nature. There is something about open space and being the quiet observer that is so healing. For a moment there are no concerns, tasks or obligations. You are not late for anything. You can just be still.
We each have our personal favorite environment, the forest, ocean or river. Stop and think for a moment, where do you feel at your best, connected and calm?
If you need permission to take a moment for yourself in nature I am giving it! You deserve it and as a matter of fact you owe it to yourself!
Do not buy into the lie that there is not enough time or money for you to get away even if for a long day of wandering in nature. Remind yourself you need a mental health day, it is better than staying on the couch with a massive stress headache or recovering from a hangover all day Sunday!
when was the last time you took a moment just for you? Do you put yourself high enough on your own list to make time to be kind to yourself? When was the last time you felt relaxed and connected to who you truly are?
Heres to time away from the havoc, the rush, the chores!
Who trained us to not say things if it is going to make us cry? You know that big lump you get that feels like your mind is saying "NOOOOOOO!! dont speak, we still can control the tears." why does this happen? I hate the list of times I should have said something really important but did not, for the lump in my throat won. Well my grandmother has cancer, real bad.... she lives in Florida and I don't get to see her much these past few years. She is an amazing artist retired as an art professor from New College in Sarasota. She was my mentor as a teen. Interesting, artsy and fun. My daughter and I flew out to see her this past week. My grandmother fell in love with my daughter. She is proud of her several winnings in photo contests, both local and international. It was a very nice visit, until the end when we had to say goodbye, that goodbye that might be the big goodbye.Thu, July 24, 2008 - 7:37 PM permalink - 2 comments
At 40 I kinda thought I might be grownup enough to handle this situation with grace. I found myself clutching to my grandmother like a kid. Then I did it, I ignored the lump. I told my grandmother I needed to tell her some things and I was going to cry while I talked because that is what seems to be happening right now..... however it was very important that I get this all out while I can. I then told her how much she meant to me and that she really will always be in my heart. That our bodies are just an outfit for our spirits and I would love it if she would be one of my guardians, a tough job to say the least. She agreed and listened to my words and then, thanked me for being brave enough to cry and talk at the same time. Then I said goodbye and hugged her again. Then passed her off to my daughter for some more love.
My advice, say what you mean even if it makes you cry. You may not get another chance so just do it lump and all!

Welcome to the second installment in our series on writers' conferences. Last week, I looked at ways to determine whether you are ready to attend a writers' conference, and how to choose the best type of conference for your needs. This week, I'm m
oving on to conference prep.
You've chosen a conference, filled out your registration forms, and made your travel plans. There's money down, and you are committed to spending a few days rubbing elbows with writers of all sorts and talking up some agents in the bar. Now what? How do you prepare so you can get the most out of your conference experience?
What should you bring…
To wear? Conferences are not formal affairs, but nor are they a giant slumber party (though you may feel as if you've attended one by the time you get home). Leave the ratty jeans and sweats at home. Bring comfortable, casual business clothing, shoes you can stand in if you find yourself at the back of a crowded workshop without a seat, and some layers that you can use to adjust to drafty hotel hallways or overheated conference rooms. If the conference schedule includes a more formal affair, bring a nicer outfit for that occasion (no hiding out in your hotel room).
For networking? You're going to meet many new people at the conference, and you should take every opportunity to talk to them. Many writers make up business cards, and networking is the place to put those to use. They are not a must-have, but they make it easy to trade contact information when you hit it off with someone at a conference. Don't forget that these folks are your peers, and they might end up your next critique buddy, a great source for marketing advice, or just an ear to bend over your latest round of rejection letters. Keep your business cards simple: include your name, email, phone if you feel comfortable, and blog/web site URL if you have one. You can always email each other with additional information later. Bring a letter-sized envelope that you can keep tucked in your bag or notebook where you can accumulate business cards from the event, so they don't get lost.
To work? Bring your laptop if you plan to get some writing done during the conference. You'll see many diligent people getting their daily word counts done in the lobby or the hotel lounge. The reality is you might not write during the conference; there are many other things vying for your time, and that's fine. But it's a good idea to have your computer with you regardless. You should also make sure you have a notebook and several pens to bring with you to the various conference events, including workshops and pitch sessions. If at all possible, refrain from taking notes during sessions straight onto your computer, as the sound of people tapping away in the audience can distract your presenter.
Of your writing? If the conference includes any sort of blue-pencil sessions—where an agent, editor, or writer reads and critiques your work—they will tell you what to bring in the way of sample material. Beyond that, most agents and editors prefer not to be handed pages from your manuscript during a pitch session. However most is not all. Some agents and editors are happy to take sample pages and will even ask if you have some. So, better safe than sorry. Bring hard copy of the first three chapters of your manuscript and a brief synopsis (1-2 pages) in a folder or envelope. Make sure your name and contact information is on your writing sample. This way, if an agent or editor asks if you have pages with you, you will be able to provide them immediately.
What should you do…
To prep for the pitch session? A pitch is basically a verbal version of what you would put on the back
cover of your book. It's that brief, enticing glimpse at your story that makes someone else want to read the entire thing. Tell your listener what your story is about in a few sentences, including who your main characters are, what they want, and what is standing in their way. Give two or three brief examples of their adventures/mishaps/challenges.
You should definitely write up your pitch and practice delivering it, but also take that write up with you when you go to the pitch session itself. No agent or editor will object if you need to read your pitch because you're nervous. Far better to
have the notes than to drop your head into your hands and bemoan the fact that your mind has gone completely blank.
Pitch one project unless the agent or editor asks what else you have. A second pitch, if requested, should be more of an elevator pitch – one or two lines that give a brief intro to the story and the protagonist. Do not worry if you only have one finished project to pitch.
If you prepare your pitch well, you will probably have a couple of minutes left after you've presented and the agent/editor has asked questions (unless you have extremely short pitch sessions). This is a good time to ask any industry questions you might have, especially if they pertain to the agent/editor with whom you're meeting. So jot down a few questions in your notebook before the conference, so you have them on hand if there is time to ask them.
To determine your schedule? The conference web site may or may not have the actual program schedule posted before the event. If it does, you can easily go through ahead of time and see which topics/speakers interest you. If not, you should take a look at the list of presenters who are attending the conference and do a little research on anyone with whom you are not familiar. If you have time, read a couple of books by some of the speakers you don't know to get a feel for their style and to see if you might be interested in their workshops/presentations. But keep in mind that you can learn a great deal from many of these speakers, even if they don't write in your particular genre.
Before you leave for the conference? Make a packing list and use it to check off everything you want to take. Get a good night's sleep so you're energized for the event. Relax and look forward to a great conference experience.
Next week: How to handle the conference itself. See you then!

We don't usually cover inactive tracks, but seeing as this track has been used recently, we thought we would add it! The Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry is a race track south of Paris in France. Opening in 1924, the track was designed to house the fastest cars of the time. At just over 2.5KM long it was no where near as long as the Brooklands track in the UK, but did not have the noise restrictions which the British circuit had. As well as the oval, there is also a large road course layout which is again very high speed. Soon the track had a huge number of visitors who came to set world records and go as fast as they could, with over 100 records set in 2 months. In 1925 it held the French Grand Prix, and then held it several times over the next fifteen years. The last racing certification was acheived in 2001, but racing has not taken place since. It has now become extremely run down, but in 2010 the profile of the track increased dramatically, due to the filming of Gymkhana 3, an infomercial with Ken Block for DC Shoes.

Citizens Have The Right, The Duty, To Be Involved In Government
January 15, 2014 | Volume 101 / Number 3
If there's one thing I've never lacked in, it has been curiosity. As a 16-year old I skipped school to lobby at the Boise State Capital building. We spoke to state legislatures on students' rights in education. Again I lobbied at the age of 25 in Olympia to the Washington State legislature on funding cuts in higher education. I was representing a program called TRIO, a program geared towards disadvantaged and first generation college students.
The point is, I've always been an advocate for citizen involvement in government. It's more than just lobbying, more than paying attention...

Spokane-area residents make tragic case for road dollars…
Some emotional testimony yesterday in the House Transportation committee, as dozens of Spokane-area people made the long trip to Olympia to call for improvements at an intersection where a 16-year-old driver was killed in January.
I wrote a story about this, with the specifics of the wreck, dollar figures for proposed fixes, and a little about the lawmakers who will decide what to do. But some of the most powerful testimony was left on the cutting-room floor. It says more about the tragedy than my story did.
Debi Hammel, whose 16-year-old daughter pulled from a stop sign onto a highway, only to be struck by a trailer-towing pickup she apparently didn't see. (Audio excerpt above.)
"As a parent, you always fear giving your child a car, a cell phone, and freedom. Yet it is part of growing up and allowing them to create their own destiny.
"...On. Jan. 16th, my worst nightmare came true. First the phone call, then the site of the accident, then the painful news that my daughter was gone." voice breaking and wiping away tears.
"...Three days later, I said goodbye to my daughter as they took her away to donate the only part of her that was left living."
"...Lorissa made a fatal mistake, and I am sure that she thought that intersection was clear."
Sitting beside her was a man named David Blyton. He was driving that pickup truck.
"We will never know what Lorissa saw when she pulled out. I will never forget what I saw."

Q&A with Stephen Epstein of Avistar
VSM: What are the deployment benefits of videoconferencing in the cloud?
SE: A decade ago, videoconferencing could be found primarily in expensive corporate boardrooms. These days, videoconferencing can be found in cloud-based computing environments. The benefits of videoconferencing include: increasing productivity, reducing costs and the hassles of traveling while enhancing relationships among employees, customers and partners.
Cloud-based videoconferencing brings additional benefits, including:
- Rapid deployment.
- Lower capital costs.
- Easier maintenance (since that's often handled by cloud providers).
- Ability to handle thousands of diverse endpoints, including PCs, room systems (including legacy systems) and mobile devices.
An important benefit of cloud-based videoconferencing is scalability. One-on-one video chats via free services are fine when talking with family members or friends, but the quality of the experience can be less than impressive. What's worse is when you need to connect to multiple people on a single call. With some solutions, the number of endpoints on a call is limited by the capacity of the Multipoint Control Unit (MCU), which can often be expensive, using inflexible hardware appliances. All-software MCUs eliminate this issue.
VSM: What does it take to have videoconferencing be cloud-ready?
SE: The possibilities of having videoconferencing in the cloud are seemingly endless. It's an attractive choice for companies that haven't invested in desktop videoconferencing and want to leverage the cost and time savings that are inherent in the cloud. It is also attractive to companies that have tested the water with videoconferencing and now want to take it to the next level. Paying attention to a few strategic areas can spell success for your cloud videoconferencing experience.
To start with, you want to think about the basics. You'll want to make sure your videoconferencing is running on virtual servers -- mostly because scaling up, then, is simply a matter of adding more instances. You will also want to think about bandwidth solutions, to be sure your networks can handle the back and forth video traffic. You'll also want to consider if it can handle thousands of diverse endpoints, including PCs, room systems, and the mobile apps people use today. The trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Devices) is not going away any time soon.
You'll also want to consider how you want to deploy in the cloud. Enterprise IT groups can choose to establish their own cloud-based HD videoconferencing, or look to a cloud-based solutions provider. In either case, you'll want a videoconferencing solution that allows fast deployment and the ability to scale up smoothly. Today organizations can provide HD multiparty services to large user/customer bases at a fraction of what alternatives cost, and users have access from their preferred devices: tablets, PCs, smart phones, and room systems.

Interim head coach Natalie Burton
Sept. 28, 2013
DALLAS (SMU) – The SMU equestrian team will conclude its first home stretch of the 2013-14 season by hosting NCEA preseason No. 10 University of Tennessee at Martin on Sunday at 10 a.m. CT at BuckBranch Farm.
SMU is coming off a 10-9 victory over New Mexico State on Thursday, the program's first win with the addition of a western team. The Mustangs had six freshmen debut on Thursday for interim head coach Natalie Burton's squad, as the rookie class accounted for five of SMU's 10 points.
UT-Martin will be competing in the Willis Invitational in Waco, Texas, before making the trip to Dallas.
The Mustangs will have nearly a week off before taking on South Carolina (10 a.m.) and Delaware State (3 p.m.) as part of a double header on Saturday Oct. 5 in Dover, Del.
