Kalilangan is a second class municipality in the province of Bukidnon, Philippines. According to the 2010 census, it has a population of 39,847 people.[3]
The term kalilangan came from a Maranao native tongue which means "extreme happiness". It used to be a barrio of Pangantucan, Bukidnon. Due to tremendous influx of settlers coming from the different parts of the country, it becomes an independent municipality.
In 1951 Kalilangan become one of the settlement areas under the LASEDECO (Land Settlement and Development Corporation). Christian settlers came and settled in this place. When LASEDECO was dissolved, it was replaced immediately by National Resettlement Rehabilitation Administration (NARRA) during the time of the late President Ramon Magsaysay. Another batch of settlers came composed of different tribes and other ethnic groups in the country. They were Cebuanos, Waray, Boholanos, Bicolanos, Tagalogs, Ivatans, Ilonggos, Ilocanos, Capangpangan and other tribes in the island of Mindanao. Settlers were given aid by the government particularly working animals, subsistence, farm tools and others. As years rolled on land cultivation progressed and the settlers started planting different kinds of crops. Roads were opened and commerce flowed freely to the new barrio of Kalilangan. Other settlers also started engaging in business
In view of the fact that Kalilangan was considered as one of the most progressive barrios in the municipality of Pangantucan and by virtue of Republic Act No. 4788 approved on June 18, 1966, a bill was sponsored by ex-Congressman Benjamin N. Tabios, creating Kalilangan into a 6th class municipality and was organized and implemented on January 1, 1968 just after the 1967 elections.
The Municipality of Kalilangan is bounded on the north by the Municipality of Talakag, on the east and south by the Municipality of Pangantucan and on the west by the Province of Lanao del Sur. It has a land area of 28,414.10 hectares. The municipalities of Talakag and Pangantucan are claiming some parts of the municipality. Talakag claims 2,427.50 hectares of land in the northern portion of the municipality while Pangantucan is also contesting for 691.0 hectares of Kalilangan's land area.
Kalilangan is characterized by rugged terrain with a limited plain or level area situated on the Poblacion and portion of the municipality. From its total land area, a dominant 76.57 percent are within 8-15 percent slope characterized by moderately undulating and gently rolling land. The barangays of San Vicente Ferrer and Ninoy Aquino are dominantly within this slope type.
Areas with 18 percent slope and above cover 15.61 percent. These are very steepy sloping and rolling land in many directions. The barangays of Macaopao, Lampanusan, portions of Kibaning, Public and Pamotolon are dominantly within the slope type.
The remaining 7.82 percent of the municipality level to nearly level land and gently sloping areas in one general direction within 0-3 percent, 3-5 percent and 5-15 percent slopes. These are common in the Poblacion portion of the municipality.
Kalilangan is politically subdivided into 14 barangays.[2]
- Bangbang
- Barorawon
- Canituan
- Kibaning
- Kinura
- Lampanusan
- Maca-opao
- Malinao
- Pamotolon (Pamotdon)
- Central Poblacion
- Public (Don Jose)

Five years later NSO conducted another Census of Population registering 15,389 inhabitants revealing that for 5 years time 1970-1975 the municipality has reached a population increase of 24.85%. On the next 5 years from 1975-1980 NSO recorded 19.01% of inhabitants as has been added to the population of the municipality, revealing therefore that a population growth rate drop of 5.84% compared to that of 1970-1975 had happened.
After 10 years the next population census had been conducted by NSO registering a population of 23,923 inhabitants on 1990. In comparison with the municipality's census two decades ago, from 1970–1980 and from 1980-1990 a population increase of 48.58% and 30.62% respectively was observed.

Has Bond found its new baddie in Javier Bardem? With the end of "Entourage" near, Mark Wahlberg finds a new "Game" to play. Plus, who is the first star moving to the "Dallas" TNT reboot?
It's all in the latest edition of the AccessHollywood.com Casting Call…
PLAY IT NOW: Seth Rogen & Cameron Diaz Laugh It Up Over The 'Awesome' 'Green Hornet'
Javier Bardem is on a roll.
Earlier this month, the actor received a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his role in the Spanish film, "Biutiful." Then, he and Penelope Cruz welcomed their first child together. Now, the actor has reportedly been offered a major part in the upcoming 23rd James Bond movie!
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Access' Top 10 Movies We Can't Wait For In 2011!
According to Deadline , while details of the role haven't been revealed, it's assumed the part would likely be the villain opposite Daniel Craig, who will return to reprise his role as super smooth super spy 007.
As previously reported earlier this month on AccessHollywood.com , the 23rd installment in the iconic film franchise was finally green lit after much speculation if it would ever see the light of day.
The as-of-yet untitled film, directed by Sam Mendes, is due to hit theaters on November 9, 2012.

Seth Rogen and Barbra Streisand's family road trip is finally ready to roll.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Access Top 10: Hottest '80s Reboots
The duo's long-talked about comedy, "My Mother's Curse," has finally been given the green light by Paramount, per The Hollywood Reporter .
The film, which has been in the works for several years, focuses on an inventor (Rogen) who invites his mom (Streisand) on a cross-country road trip to hawk his newest gadget, all the while searching for his mom's long lost love.
The project keeps Streisand's comic turn going, following her work in back-to-back Focker films - 2004's "Meet the Fockers" and 2010's "Little Fockers," respectively.
Funnyman Rogen currently stars as crime fighter Britt Reid in "The Green Hornet."
With "Entourage" nearing the end of its run on HBO, Mark Wahlberg has come up with a new TV "Game" plan.
Wahlberg, who executive produces the long-running HBO series, has developed a new sitcom pilot called "Home Game," based on the story of real-life former NFL star Mark Schlereth.
Schlereth won three Super Bowls during his time with the Washington Redskins and Denver Broncos during the 1990s, before retiring from the game to be home with his wife and daughters. Schlereth currently works as an NFL analyst for ESPN.
CBS has picked up the pilot, according to The Hollywood Reporter .
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com , the upcoming eighth season of "Entourage" will be the show's last. However, there has been discussion of bringing Vince (Adrien Grenier) and the boys to the big screen for an "Entourage" movie.
Wahlberg is also an executive producer of HBO's recent Golden Globe and SAG Award Best Drama winning series "Boardwalk Empire."
Jordana Brewster better dust off her 10-gallon hat and her cowboy boots - she's moving to "Dallas."
The brunette bombshell has been tapped as the first new cast member for the upcoming TNT reboot for the popular '80s soap series, according to Deadline .
The reboot will focus on the kids of feuding brothers J.R. and Bobby Ewing, who constantly clash over the Ewing family fortune.
Brewster will play Elena, the daughter of the Ewing family ranch's cook, who finds herself in love triangle with J.R. and Bobby's sons.
Original series stars Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray will reprise their roles as Bobby and Sue Ellen Ewing, while Larry Hagman has been in talks to come back as J.R., although no deal is yet in place for his return.
No airdate has been announced yet for the pilot's premiere.

.:Featured Novel: The Intent32
Category: Books
Newly Released Historical Novel Tells Tragic World War II Love Story
and Closely Examines the Importance of Virtuous and Corrupt Intentions
A young German womans life changes forever during World War II when she falls in love with an American soldier whose life she saves; historically accurate events in both Germany and the U.S. are interwoven throughout the book
Jϋrgen D. Beck explores the topics of vice and virtue in his new historical novel The Intent. This heartfelt and poignant story, at its core, asks readers to ponder the following question: What is the intent of the heart? Notes Beck, "To some extent, the book is born from my need to reconcile postwar years in my native Germany as a young boy."
To that end, Beck's novel returns readers to Germany during World War II, where a young woman's actions save a young American aviator shot out of the sky. After nursing him back to health and protecting him from authorities with the help of her initially reluctant family, Helga Berger and Tom Williams fall in love.
For seven weeks, Helga's family cares for and protects Tom; eventually he is safely smuggled out of the country. He fully intends to be reunited with Helga, but for now he returns to the United States, where he inevitably begins to question his former willingness to perform what he has been told is his duty. He loves Helga and wants desperately to marry her, but while the war rages, this is impossible. When time and tragedy intervene, Helga desperately tries to reconcile the life ahead of her, with the life she once dreamed of.
Throughout the novel, which depicts numerous historically accurate events in both Germany and the U.S., Beck explores what he calls "the fallacy of 'War for peace'" and concludes that "The nastiest form of evil is pretending to do well while having alternative motives."
Beck's The Intent brings to mind the old proverb "The road to hell is paved with good intentions" and makes you wonder: what is the road to heaven paved with?

Skip to comments.Rent-a-cops hired to ring Independence Hall - threaten arrests
Posted on 10/10/2013 1:18:41 PM PDT by BigEdLB
Armed private security guards are on the job to keep the public away from Philadelphias Independence Hall, and one even threatened to arrest a political activist if he stepped on the sidewalk beside the iconic building where the Declaration of Independence and Constitution were debated and adopted.
You will be arrested, said one of the hired guards to activist Craig Bergman as a video team filmed his stop at the downtown historical center.
In the video, Bergman asks a National Park Service ranger who was paying for the rented cops, and was told, You are. The badge on the private guards read SecTec, a Virginia-based security company that operates around the nation. A source said that SecTec often is used for the Hall's security. Their webpage includes Independence Hall as a client.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonexaminer.com ...
When I was a boy, you know what Park Rangers were? They were amiable people with higher-than-average interest in camping who paid higher attention to your fire safety than you did, maybe.
And sometimes you paid them for your tent site.
Most rent-a-cops are bullies that always wanted to be cops and could not get hired, or got fired. A few exceptions, but darn few. I also wonder where the money is coming from to pay them, I am sure the taxpayers are paying more to have these areas closed than it would cost to keep them open.
Right now - we need to IMPEACH OBAMA — then throw out everything that corrupt dictator set in motion over the last 6 yrs....this is pathetic!
Whoa. We're not in Jellystone Park, anymore, Yogi :(
Mass civil disobedience is very powerful, and got tyrant Morsi out of office in Cairo and in India it got the Brits out of their country.
He's reaching to turn down (or up) the volume on his radio, if you watch the video.
I think these are Hessian mercenaries.

The "Reporter" is a wuss.
He should have announced he was going to exercise his First Amendment Rights to speak about the shutdown from a site that was shut down, walk across the street, and start making a speech.
Come ON Folks. This is where they stomp on you a little bit, and we're going to do nothing?
Maybe so, but it looks to me like the dickhead has his other hand on his gun.
What's this mean?
> SecTek was founded in 1992 as a SBA 8(a) small disadvantaged business.
0's brown shirts. Farmed out to the private sector.
Bergman asks a National Park Service ranger who was paying for the rented cops, and was told, You are.
Bergman then look at him and said good,"your fired".
Does it mean someone like ValJar owns it? Or, Fauxchahontas?
It was founded by a minority, who was probably a front for some corrupt money.
If I were there, I'd look at him politely, ask him if his company actually gave them any real training, and tell him that if he isn't expecting to actually shoot someone, he should get his hand off his gun.
Start carrying protest signs and video cameras - if possible use protest signs they do not want in the news - when enforcing your rights at these tourist areas/parks.
42 USC § 1983 - Civil action for deprivation of rights
Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officers judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia.
This Kind of civil disobedience is arguably protected protest speech.
Bill Blood is the CEO according to BusinessWeek.
They are spending more dough shutting things down they say they can't pay for then if they ignored the funding bill altogether. next time someone threatens a shutdown someone else needs to ask if we can afford it. This just shows how much of a farce the whole thing is.
Each day I wake up saying ":Clown Prince nobama and his commie loser minions can't get any lower...and they do! I do hope nobama's prison stay is a long one. He is raping Freedom.
My understanding is, the furloughed employees are going to get paid anyway, once a CR is passed. Therefore, it would have been cheaper to un-furlough enough NPS guys to keep the citizens away.
Also, ZeroCare is underway despite the CR supposedly cutting off power for the servers.
So, the CR is just theater!
And the only meaningful remedy requires a majority of the House and two thirds of the Senate!
Link to private pig web site: http://www.sectek.com/
SecTek was founded in 1992 as a SBA 8(a) small disadvantaged business.
Minority owner of record IIRC
SecTek, Inc. (2003)
Key Facts: SecTek was the successful bidder on a General Services Administration contract that had been set aside for small businesses. The contract was for the provision of security guard services. SecTek had a teaming agreement with Wackenhut (a large company), and in the proposal, there was a logo on every page identifying the bidder as SecTek-Wackenhut. The offer also referred to the companies as if they were a single entity and did not divide contract responsibilities. Not surprisingly, the SBA found that there was a joint venture and that it was ineligible for the set-aside.
Importance: When a teaming agreement fails to set out discrete tasks for each company, it is likely to be labeled a joint venture. In its proposal, the prime contractor must demonstrate control over both the bidding process and the performance of the contract.
Congress needs to investigate the Park Service for actions they have taken under orders from above to make life as difficult for people as we can.
1. What is really going on in this administrations reaction to "the shutdown" - which is vastly different from any prior "government shutdown." Comparisons should be made.
2. Who gave what orders to Park Service employees (and now contractors)?
3. What has been spent to implement this punitive shutdown, compared to maintaining operations of the facilities? This is just another example. WW2 memorial, Mt. Vernon, other DC Mall open air areas, outlooks for Mt. Rushmore... This is ridiculous.
LinkedIn lists one Wilfred Blood as SekTek president.
He looks somewhat melanin-challenged.
The blowfish in the middle is just trying to emulate his boss, CEO Bill Blood.
This makes me physically ill. Where will it end?
I was thinking the same thing.
If I was still living there I'd just walk over and start looking through the windows for Nicholas Cage.
What about the Liberty Bell?
Every law has these hidden words tacked on the end:
"or we'll shoot you".
He also needs to be asked - "are you willing to shoot someone who goes to look at the Liberty Bell?"
In a way, this is good. People need to understand the inherent malignance of government.

These idiots have arrest authority?
The guy on the left and the gal on the right have a look on their faces as if to say, "Why did I ever take this crappy job?"
The guy in the middle thinks he's a badass, but if an armed citizen came after him he'd probably run away screaming like a frightened little girl.
It's time to turn over Independence Hall and The Liberty Bell to a private, patriotic foundation.
Think of that , a large group of people , peacefully walking into Independence Hall past 0bama's rent-a-cops. The irony would be perfect, and the youtube would be priceless.
Use Alinski's tactics against the former professor of Alinski now squatting in the Spite House.
If rent a cops go to far - they're going to be sued from here to kingdom come...
Thanks for the verification of the SBA 8(a).
Someone posted a photo of the purported to be the CEO Wilfred (Bill) Blood as melanin challenged. However older docs list Edward Rhoades as president with Blood as CEO. As a privately held company true ownership is not always easy to trace, especially with minority figureheads of that era. Owner ain't always the pres.
"Man bows up at me like that and puts his hand on his firearm, there are going to be problems."
They look like they're armed with flashlights to me. That boy sure does look froggy. He looks like he's going to open a can of 'Paul Blart Mall Cop' whoop-ass on you.
Bully BROWN SHIRTS!! Obama's PRIVATE THUG ARMY. Are they even CITIZENS??
Maybe it's one of those "short bus" disabilities.
I think the Pubs are MUCH MORE MORL than the Dems, but the DEMS would have mopped up Hillary (IF SHE WAS ON THE RIGHT) AND ALL THE IRS LAWBREAKERS in RECORD TIME!! 45 PEOPLE WOULD BE IN PRISON!
Democrats are Law-Less because Republican leaders are BALL-LESS!!
May have to mosey on down for a laugh. They are some funny looking cretins.
They've had arrest authority since at least the early 1980s (and probably before that, that's as far back as I can remember).
Here is what happened to a dog walker in newly-seized fed/NPS land in the SF Bay Area:

For the past 6 months, I and co-researchers Mikela Hein and Tiffany Vass have been developing our national energy-economy model (CIMS) to simulate climate policy scenarios that explore the effect of current Canadian policies, and contrast this with (1) the must-price-emissions approach that some are advocating, and (2) an alternative approach that emphasizes a significant role for flexible regulations, similar to what California is doing with regulations on electricity, vehicles, fuels, etc. Available on this link, our report is called "Is Win-Win Possible? Can Canada's Government Achieve Its Paris Commitment . . . and Get Re-elected?"
If policy advisors and policy makers are to learn anything from the past 30 years of ineffective climate policies, they would hopefully see that climate policy is very difficult politically and emissions pricing is especially difficult. Canada intends to achieve its Paris commitment. To do so by emphasizing emissions pricing would require a price that climbs by about $15 per year to reach $200 per tonne of CO2 by 2030. It is highly unlikely that federal or provincial politicians will pursue this approach. Fortunately, they don't have to. As noted, California is especially relying on flexible regulations. Such an approach is likely to be less economically efficient than emissions pricing. But researchers can help policy makers by estimating the magnitude of the economic efficiency trade-off for political acceptance. Our report attempts to start that process.

Is Win-Win Possible? Can Canada's Government Achieve Its Paris Commitment . . . and Get Re-elected?

BC's 'New' Climate Plan Scales Olympian Heights of Political Cynicism
This blog was first published as an Op-Ed piece in The Globe and Mail Aug. 21, 2016
In 30 years of evaluating government climate plans, I have learned to classify them into three categories: somewhat effective, naively ineffective and cynically ineffective. BC's new climate plan fits perfectly into one of these categories. Can you guess which?
Let me help. The thing about 'effective' climate policy is that it is never a political winner. Effective policies would start immediately to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by either pricing these or regulating fuels and technologies. The price can be achieved by a carbon tax, as in BC and Alberta, or an emissions cap with tradable permits, as in Ontario and Quebec. Alternatively, regulations, which dominate in California, would require a growing market share for zero-emission vehicles, furnaces, electricity generation, and industrial equipment. In every case, the stringency of these effective policies must be increasing – a rising carbon tax, a falling emissions cap, tightening regulations. Everything else is bogus.
Politicians know that effective climate policy is not a political winner because these effective policies cause gasoline prices to rise immediately, while the benefits from slowing climate change and sea level rise occur after the politician's career is over. Only a politician willing to show ethical leadership would take effective action on this difficult global challenge. Politicians who are not leaders but seem to care would gravitate to ineffective policies. Politicians who are cynical and don't care would deliberately fake it, implementing a long list of ineffective policies, engaging in endless 'public consultation' and dismantling the effective policies implemented by previous climate leaders.
Which brings us to BC Premier Christy Clark and her new climate plan. From 2007 to 2011, her predecessor, Gordon Campbell, led the world in implementing effective climate policies, out-muscling even Arnold Schwarzenegger's efforts in California. He banned the use of coal and natural gas to generate electricity. He implemented a rising carbon tax. He established the legislative framework for an emissions cap, and for tightening regulations on fuels, vehicles, buildings and equipment. He not only set a climate target for 2020, but also interim targets for 2012 and 2016 to enable real-time monitoring of the effectiveness of his efforts.
But when Clark replaced Campbell in 2011, one of her first acts was to freeze the tax at its 2012 level. Because of inflation, this means the tax has been declining in real value for the last four years. She also undermined his zero-emission electricity requirement and his emissions-cap legislation, and she has done nothing to tighten any of his other regulations. At the same time, she has vigorously promoted expansion of the natural gas industry which, if successful, would dramatically increase emissions. And last year, she launched yet another public consultation.
In refusing to serve on her consultative panel, I pointed out that this was the last thing BC needed, and that anyone joining the panel was legitimizing a strategy of inaction. In BC, we already had effective policies, and Clark would know from her advisors that only by increasing their stringency would emissions fall. But endless public consultation is a convenient way of appearing to care without taking action. And the panel did not help by naively calling for an increase in the carbon tax. This played directly into Clark's populist posture as defender of overtaxed car and truck drivers, and was unnecessary, as California's smart regulations have proven.
Last week, Clark finally released her climate policy. Predictably, it perfectly fits the 'cynically ineffective' category. First, there is no immediate tightening of the stringency of any effective policies to achieve emissions targets in, say, 2020 and 2025. Second, consistent with the cynical category, the plan includes a list of innocuous policies that are known to be ineffective – subsidies to industry to electrify some processes, information programs for consumers, and statements about the government's good intentions. And taking cynicism to a new level, the plan's so-called emissions reductions are dominated by tree planting on lands that are already allocated to forestry, an action that does not decrease emissions in the long run.
If there were an Olympic event for political cynicism on the climate challenge, BC's new climate plan would be a strong contender for the gold medal.

My interview in "Building a consensus on climate change? Not so easy, after all" in Macleans
Here is the link to an article by John Geddes "Building a consensus on climate change? Not so easy, after all", Ottawa bureau chief at Maclean's, who does a good job of distilling my point that while carbon pricing is the most economically efficient GHG reduction policy, it is willful blindness to assume that economic efficiency is the only criterion when trying to implement climate policy. If regulations are more politically acceptable, especially for doing the heavy lifting, then put some intelligence (even economic intelligence) into designing market-oriented regulations that are relatively economically efficient.
One might notice by the way, that in the first two weeks of March Trudeau failed to get provinces to agree to even a small carbon price (that would have virtually no effect on emissions - such as $15 or $30 per tonne of CO2)) and then went to Washington and quickly signed an agreement with Obama to dramatically reduce methane emissions from the oil and gas industry. No mention of emissions pricing. It will be regulation."
The Paris climate summit
This article appeared in Policy Options in November 2015.
The Paris climate summit
Canada has consistently failed to deliver, but it's not too late for us to make a major contribution at the climate summit in Paris.
The other day I heard an environmental advocate argue that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau needed to make an ambitious commitment at the UN Paris climate summit (COP 21) to atone for all the "climate fossil" awards won by our previous prime minister. I'm not so sure.
Remember when newly elected President Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize? He hadn't yet done anything. Apparently the Nobel committee bestowed the award simply because he was not George W. Bush. In the same vein, Trudeau will be welcomed because he is not Stephen Harper.
I am not saying, of course, that Trudeau should just go to Paris and smile. But to make a real contribution, he will need to be brutally honest about why UN negotiations have failed for over two decades and equally honest about why Canada's emission reduction efforts have also continuously failed.
Want an effective climate policy? Heed the evidence
This article appeared in Policy Options in February 2016.
Want an effective climate policy? Heed the evidence
Carbon taxes and caps may be most effective in economic theory, but smart regulation will produce better climate policy for our political reality.
Wisely, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resisted the temptation at the Paris climate summit in December to double down on Stephen Harper's 2030 target for Canadian carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. While future emissions promises are easily made, effective climate policy is devilishly difficult. To have any chance, Trudeau needs to stay wise — which starts by avoiding advice from technology and policy advocates who themselves avoid inconvenient evidence from leading climate policy research and real-world experience. What does this evidence tell us?
For one thing, it's a mistake to expect a big contribution from energy efficiency. For three decades, governments and utilities have made efficiency the focus of their emissions reduction efforts, with negligible results. Yes, energy efficiency is always improving, and we can slightly accelerate that trend. But humans require energy for basic needs and, more important, we keep inventing frivolous devices that use more. (Need evidence? Stroll through your local big-box store.)

Canadian climate policy and your vote
"Policy academics are cheap dates." One of my mentors, professor Aiden Vining, loved saying that. His point was that we policy academics will gladly pay for our own dinner if we think that a politician, of any political stripe, wants our advice. This explains why, in my 30 years of climate policy research, I have willingly advised Conservatives, Liberals, NDP and Greens, sometimes when in power, sometimes in opposition. Once, a politician actually paid for my dinner – at McDonalds.
I have learned some things that are relevant to this federal election. One lesson is that climate policy is really, really hard. Our political system has strong incentives for politicians not to implement effective climate policies. To be effective, policies must either price CO2 emissions or regulate CO2-causing fuels and technologies. These compulsory policies impose short-term costs (real and perceived) on some people, some of whom will wage war on the guilty politician. As in all wars, truth is the first casualty: the climate policy and its implementing politician will be blamed for completely unrelated misfortunes by these people, powerful backers, and a media that loves attacking politicians.

I am a Postdoctoral researcher at the Oxford Internet Institute (University of Oxford) studying collective memory based on the information seeking patterns of large number of individuals on the web. I also contribute to the HUMANE project and Zooniverse. I am also interested in how our culture/demographics influence the way we interact/behave online and how to use this information to provide better services online (i.e., recommender systems) and learn about societies (i.e., collaboration, discrimination, immigration, etc.).
Thanks to my stay at Yahoo Labs Barcelona during the 4 years of my PhD studies, I gained experience in crawling, collecting, parsing and processing large datasets in distributed computing environments (e.g., MapReduce, Apache Hadoop) as to identify how cultural differences influence the way people use, interact and generate content in social media (i.e., Twitter). To do so, I used tools such as Pig, java, R and python.Outside of the lab, I love hiking, cooking and salsa dancing. I am also a patient runner who dreams to be a marathon runner one day.

Jay Leno Predicted That Diet-Related Jail Escape
The news pages have been full lately about the jail escape, and subsequentrecapture
, of the murder suspect who dieted until he was slim enough to slip through an air-conditioning vent.
Maybe the incident shouldn't have been a surprise after all.
The escape from the Waller County Jail was predicted -- to a T -- more than 15 years ago, by no less an expert than Jay Leno.

On his "Headlines" segment, where he goofs on newspaper typos and stories, he said something very like this of the new Waller County Jail: "Now, if you want to see the world's largest air-conditioning ducts...."
Leno was referring to a Houston Chronicle story detailing how the county's new correctional facility was designed by a felon on probation.
The felon, whose name was never released, was a master draftsman and did the work as part of his community service.
It's not entirely clear whether his design played a part in the escape -- the building he worked on was an add-on to the existing jail.
But who knew Jay Leno could predict the future?

MSI X-Slim X600 notebook
A slim and light 15.6in notebook for everyday computing
- Slim chassis, light, full-sized keyboard with number pad, 4GB RAM
- Touchpad is in an inconvenient position and affects typing, no ExpressCard slot
Bottom Line
The MSI X-Slim X600 is a big but light notebook with a thin frame. It's a good all-round notebook with decent specifications, but its touchpad is in a position that can hamper typing.
Price$ 1,799.00 (AUD)
Special Offers
It may be a slimline laptop, but the MSI X-Slim X600 definitely isn't small. It has a 15.6in widescreen display that's perfect for office work, watching videos and browsing the Web; and it has enough CPU power to run almost any application.
The CPU under the hood is an Intel Core 2 Solo U3500 model, which is a low voltage model that runs at 1.4GHz. Most importantly, it's not a dual-core CPU, which means that it will be slower for multitasking than a laptop with a dual-core CPU. This was shown in our WorldBench 6 benchmark suite, in which the X600 recorded a time of 812sec in the multitasking test. A slimline laptop such as HP's dv2 1132AX, which has a dual-core AMD Athlon 64 X2 Neo CPU running at 1.6GHz, recorded 684sec.
Nevertheless, the U3500 is still a reasonably fast CPU and its overall score in WorldBench 6 was 61, which is twice as fast as what a netbook can achieve in the same benchmark (see the BenQ Joybook U121 Eco as an example) and approximately 40 per cent slower than a typical Intel Core 2 Duo-based laptop such as Dell's 1545. It achieved this performance in concert with 4GB of DDR2 SDRAM, a 320GB Hitachi Travelstar 5K500.B hard drive (HTS545032B9A300), and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330 graphics card.
That's a solid supporting cast of components, no matter which way you look at it. There's enough space to store your data as well as install plenty of applications; there's plenty of RAM for image editing or loading multiple applications simultaneously; there's enough graphics processing power to even let you play games, albeit at a low detail level.
A low-voltage single-core CPU has been used to power the X600 because this type of CPU does not produce as much heat as a more powerful dual-core model. It's an essential element in keeping the X600 cool, which is important because the X600 is such a thin and therefore relatively light laptop. It's approximately 3cm thick, which is similar to the thickness of many netbooks on the Australian market, and it tapers off at the edges, which makes it look even thinner than it actually is.
Physically, the X600 feels like it's solidly constructed and it has good balance when you use it in your lap. There are vents on either side of the chassis, as well as on the bottom. It has a cooling fan, but it's not overly audible. As a result of the base being so thin, the laptop's battery is also very thin, yet it's one of the biggest we've seen in terms of length and width. It's a 6-cell battery and it lasted 2hr 43min in our video-rundown test, in which we disable power management, maximise screen brightness and enable the wireless radio while looping an Xvid-encoded video. This is almost on par with the HP Pavilion dv2-1132AX, which has a 4-cell battery and lasted 2hr 50min in the same test.
Ports and slots are located on either side of the X600, and while it isn't furnished with an ExpressCard expansion slot, nor a built-in optical drive, it still has all the features you'll need for your everyday computing. You get three USB 2.0 ports, a VGA port, an HDMI port, headphone and microphone jacks, an SD card slot and a Gigabit Ethernet port. The USB 2.0 port on the left-hand side also doubles as an eSATA port, which lets you transfer files quicker from external hard drives than USB 2.0 does. You also get a webcam, 802.11n wireless networking (Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN), and Bluetooth.
With a weight of 2.1kg, the X600 is one of the lightest 15.6in laptops on the market. You'll have more trouble squeezing it into a bag than you will lifting that bag; the X600 will only just fit inside a small backpack. That's because it is so wide, and while this is good because you get a comfortable keyboard (with a number pad), the layout of the keyboard and touchpad makes the X600 slightly awkward to use. The touchpad is a nuisance because it is not centred with main part of the keyboard, and this means your right hand often brushes the pad and ends up moving the cursor, or worse yet, selecting entire blocks of text and deleting them with the next key you hit! It needed to be placed further toward the left of the palm rest so as to be unobtrusive while you type. You can disable it by using a function key combination (Fn+F3), but there is no physical switch, which means you can't quickly switch it on to navigate, then switch it off again to type.
When you're not typing, you can watch movies on the X600's 1366x768-resolution screen, or you can plug in a high definition TV via its HDMI port. Sound will also travel over HDMI, so you won't have to put up with the tinny speakers nor plug in a separate audio cable. The screen is glossy, but it has good brightness and contrast and it doesn't reflect light as much as other glossy screens we have seen.
The position of the touchpad in relation to the keyboard is perhaps the major sticking point with this slimline laptop. Apart from that, it's a reasonably good performer, it's light and it has a solid keyboard. However, unless you want the big screen, it's probably worth picking up one of the smaller models in MSI's X-Slim range instead.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I had bronchitis once, pneumonia twice (second time sent me to the hospital, twice) - plus a variety of pregnancy related issues including gestational diabetes and hyperemisis.
Balancing two other children plus a full time job equaled no internet time at all - unless I was on my phone, making it difficult to post ;(

Doesn't sound very early and he sounds big right?
I thought the same thing.
This was a lesson in emotional strength, patience, and things I never thought I would have to experience - ever.
Granted my first son was taken to another hospital the day he was born - he was brought back after testing cleared him within 24 hours.
This was completely different and not what I expected.
On March 12 at work I wasn't feeling well. I felt crampy, tired, and I kept getting sick in the bathroom. I thought maybe I had a virus or it was the lovely face of the hyperemesis I'd had the whole time (I gained a total of 12 pounds).
I went to my doctor who checked me, no change in dilation from the week before - but I was effaced about 50 %.
Went to the hospital for monitoring (in the back of my head couldn't wait to get home and rest and watch some TV - no idea of the events to come). About 2 hours in, I heard the nurse outside my door call my doctor "she's contracting every 6-8 minutes, what do you want to do?"
I immediately burst in to tears. My doc told me in the office if I was contracting AT ALL in any way, they were taking him that night, because I was a high risk for rupture after 2 c sections and we weren't taking any chances with that.
The nurses came in and said he was coming tonight. I honestly felt like throwing up - but seriously, 36.5 weeks, not early and I knew he was big - so he would be okay ... right?
Jonah was born an hour after I learned he was coming. The csection was standard (brutal) and I had a tubal ligation at the same time. I heard one healthy cry and cried myself, my husband was crying too (our first baby together, he has 3 by a previous marriage, I have 2).
But after that, Jonah really didn't cry. A few little cries but he just stopped. They brought him to me, but immediately ran away as did my husband. I went to recovery for an hour before Joe came back in with the news.
Jonah was not breathing well on his own - he was born with respitory distress syndrome - likely from a combo of being premature, and me having diabetes. He was sent to the NICU. I met him the next day at 12 PM. I was unable to touch him - or hold him - I cried for about an hour at this bedside. He was intubated and given a treatment to help mature his lungs. He had a belly IV tube and was fed that way. His breathing was awful - I've never seen a baby breathe like that.
Jonah was beautiful - I stayed with him as much as I could while recovering from the csection. I finally held him on the 2nd day but the tubes were in the way and the monitors kept going off.
We were released, without Jonah, on March 16. We made hospital trips every day for 8-10 hours (it was a half hour drive one way). Recovery for me was brutal and still is plus I got an infection from the catheter.
My beautiful precious boy was finally released 9 days after he was born. It was such an amazing moment to hear the doctors say he had recovered well and quicker than they expected - but the doctors and nurses who had treated him had been AMAZING. I never knew a baby that was born at 36.5 could have had such issues - and I never thought it would happen to me. I'm leaving out a lot of other things because there's not enough room in this post - but the fact is, my baby is home safe. He left the hospital at a weight of 6lb 9oz. He's adjusting well at home and we are strictly formula feeding him and he's adjusted well to that.
Here's some pictures - the pregnant picture is from the day before he was born - I had no idea at the time. My c section was scheduled for April 2.
I hope everyone is well and thank you for listening and reading. It was truly a life changing experience.

George Osborne should impose even deeper public spending cuts to stabilise the economy and provide more flexibility for tax cuts, a group of right-wing Tory MPs will argue tomorrow.
Members of the Free Enterprise Group of Conservative MPs, predominantly from the 2010 intake, will use a pre-Budget summit to call on the Chancellor to reopen the Spending Review and see where further savings can be made.
The summit, organised by the FEG and the Institute for Economic Affairs think tank, will discuss a Budget wishlist from the "new right" Tory MPs, in the latest round of a tug of war with coalition partners over the Chancellor's statement.
The Treasury is understood to be drawing up plans to raise the income tax threshold to £9,000, costing around £4.6bn. This would be announced in the Budget on 21 March, to take effect in April 2013.
Although the measure is a long-standing Liberal Democrat policy, right-wing Tory MPs want the Chancellor to claim it as a Tory move.
Budget talks in the quad – David Cameron, George Osborne, Nick Clegg and Danny Alexander – have been good-natured so far. However, it is understood that the Lib Dems are prioritising a sharp increase in the threshold at which people start paying the 20p basic rate of tax over any other measure.
Lib Dems are buoyed by research suggesting that one in five Labour and Tory voters would be more likely to back Mr Clegg's party as a result of its income tax policy. Private polling seen by The IoS shows that the policy is most popular in the West Midlands and the East Midlands, where almost 30 per cent of those surveyed said they were more likely to switch to the Lib Dems.
The focus of tomorrow's free market summit will be on economic growth, with proposals to cut regulation for businesses, to merge national insurance and income tax, and to reduce the 50p top rate of income tax over two years.
There is some support – though not from all the MPs – for extra council tax bands on the most expensive homes, a measure floated last week to answer Lib Dem calls for a mansion tax.
Although not all 36 MPs of the FEG are in favour of deeper spending cuts, a source close to tomorrow's summit said: "A number of people are looking for the public spending round to be reopened and say that Osborne needs to look at making further cuts."
Key members of the Free Enterprise Group are writing a book, to be published on the eve of Tory conference, calling for Britain to reassert its place in the world. Called Britannia Unchained, it is a follow-up to After the Coalition, a provocative manifesto for a Tory-majority government after the 2015 election.
In Britannia Unchained, Tory MPs Kwasi Kwarteng, Liz Truss, Dominic Raab and Chris Skidmore will show how free-market innovation in emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil, as well as Canada and Germany, should be used in Britain.
In a foretaste of the book, Ms Truss will tomorrow call for a new flat rate of parental pay to replace maternity leave. This would be paid directly by the Government, rather than through the employer. She will use the example of Germany, where a flat rate of €1,800 (£1,500) a month is paid to parents, and "decoupled" from leave – so a mother could return to work part-time while her partner stayed at home.

Eric Portman
|Eric Portman
|Eric Harold Portman
13 July 1901
Akroydon, Halifax, West Yorkshire, England
|7 December 1969
(aged 68)
St Veep, Cornwall, England
|Years active
Eric Portman (13 July 1901 – 7 December 1969) was an English stage and film actor. He is probably best remembered for his roles in several films for Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger during the 1940s.
He started work in 1922 as a salesman in the menswear department at Marshall and Snelgrove's department store in Leeds and acted in the amateur Halifax Light Opera Society. He made his professional stage debut in 1924 with Henry Baynton's company,[1] before he was engaged by Lilian Baylis for the Old Vic Company. In 1928, he starred as Romeo in the rebuilt Old Vic and forged a reputation as a noted Shakespearian actor. In the 1930s, he began appearing in films. In 1935, he appeared in four films, including Maria Marten or Murder in the Red Barn.
In 1941 he had his first important film role playing Nazi on the run Herth in Powell and Pressburger's 49th Parallel, which led to leading roles in the British cinema of the 1940s and 1950s, including One of Our Aircraft Is Missing (1942) and A Canterbury Tale (1944) for Powell and Pressburger, as well as We Dive at Dawn (1943), Millions Like Us (1943), Dear Murderer (1947), The Spider and the Fly (1949), Cairo Road (1950) and The Colditz Story (1955). In 1945, exhibitors voted him the 10th most popular star at the British box office.[2] He maintained that ranking the following year.[3]
In the semi-autobiographical play Dinner with Ribbentrop by screenwriter Norman Hudis, a former personal assistant to Portman, Hudis relates a claim made often by Portman. According to Portman, in 1937, before the start of the Second World War, he had had a dinner in London with Joachim von Ribbentrop (then the Nazi Ambassador to Britain). Portman claimed that Ribbentrop had told him that "when Germany wins the war, Portman would be installed as the greatest English star in the New Europe" at a purpose-built film studio in Berlin.[4][5]
He played the bogus Major in Terence Rattigan's play Separate Tables in 1957 on Broadway. For this performance, he was nominated for a Tony Award (Best Actor (Dramatic)).
Portman was probably homosexual, although newspapers never reported this during the mid-1950s when homosexuality was illegal in the UK. Newspapers refrained from identifying his sexuality throughout the 1960s when it could still have damaged his career.[6]
Near the end of his life he played character roles including Number Two in the TV series The Prisoner, appearing in the episode "Free For All" (1967), as well as films including The Whisperers (1967) and Deadfall (1968), both for director Bryan Forbes.
Portman died at age 68 at his home in St Veep, Cornwall from undisclosed causes.[7]
