Very faithful port
Pretty much everyone thinking of buying this app is a mega man fan, so I'll give you he info that you need to know. Nothin is removed or cut out of this game, it's the full mega man 2. It has been tweaked a little and reworked a little. For instance, some enemies like the guys on clouded throw lightning twice as fast, the shrimp in bubble mans stage move extremely quick, and some enemy attack patters are more unpredictable now. Other than that the original games bugs have been removed and there are new features (like the save feature) that are great. Easy mode is WAY too easy, and normal is just a little too hard sometimes. Also all the boss robots are a lot weaker. Ultimately though all the changes made are small and insignificant to the whole game, and on top of that most of he changes make the game even better. If you like mega man 2 AT ALL or ANY mega man game for that matter, get this. Fun classic gameplay, tight controls, solid frame rates and no crappy NES sprite flicker. PLUS it's only 99 cents. Get it! Now!
best for iPad
this game is a quite faithful and fun port if the original mega man 2, one if the best nintendo entertainment system games made. This port, however, seems to be intended for the ipad and not the iPhone. Because the iPad and iPhone have no buttons, the app has to virtualize them, they appear on the touch screen itself. This actually works very well if you have an iPad and expanded the app to fit the screen (this is achievable by selecting the "x2" button on the corner of the screen if the app appears to fit only half of your screen.) Best played in landscape mode to better allow use of the virtual buttons, about half of the screen is used for controlling the game and the other half for viewing it. On the iPhone this is a different story. One must squint their eyes just to see what is going on, and the buttons are too small to be of use. Final verdict: a must have for gamers on the iPad... But for iPhone owner it's best to try to avoid setups like this.
Good, but could be better
Being a huge Megaman fan, with it having always been my favorite game series, I had very high expectations for this (as high as an app game port can be). It's a pretty good port, one of the best out there. It is basically the same in every way as the original with some minor differences noted in most of the other reviews.
Really what would make this game a million times better, which would allow me to give it 5 stars, would be if there was an option to use blue tooth to connect a wiimote to it. The touch screen controls are very difficult to use, as they are for most games. Since the buttons are not physical, your fingers can easily drift away from them while you're paying attention to the game rather than where your fingers are located. This is really my biggest problem with this game. If that could be tweaked then this would be my favorite game app of all time.
(It appears that the last update was in 2010, so it's highly unlikely)

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are expected to trade or cut cornerback Darrelle Revis by Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Fox Sports analyst Alex Marvez, citing a poor fit with new head coach Lovie Smith's Tampa 2 system and a salary that's so high it's worrisome, tweeted the Bucs' desire to part ways with Revis:
Again, @TBBuccaneers really trying hard to trade Darrelle Revis. Hoping to strike a deal pretty quickly. Not sure of suitors yet.
Although @TBBuccaneers HC Lovie Smith has praised Revis, he doesn't need him for success in his defensive system. Combined with contract ...
Smith has utilized a Tampa 2 defense for quite some time, a scheme that works with zone coverage in the defensive backfield. Revis is a man-cover guy who is best suited to be left alone to trail the man he's covering wherever he goes.
Then consider Revis' contract is structured to function like six, $16 million deals (six years, $96 million, no guaranteed money).
Whenever the team decides it's done, it can release Revis and not worry about any dead money or a future cap hit. Tampa Bay used Revis in 2013 in that scenario, but with a new head coach and general manager (Jason Licht), it looks like Revis' stay in Tampa will be short-lived.
To push any negotiations into overdrive, the Bucs will have to quickly pull the trigger on whatever deal they decide to make.
According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, if Revis is on Tampa Bay's roster on March 13, he is set to earn a $1.5 million roster bonus. And the 2014 draft pick that Tampa Bay owes the New York Jets moves from a fourth-round pick to a third-rounder.
The phones are ringing at One Buccaneer Place, tweets Peter Schrager of Fox Sports:
Deep breaths, Bucs fans. Deep breaths. The phones are, indeed, ringing down in Tampa at the moment. Teams want to talk re: Revis.
Don't assume that Revis will be released just yet. I can report that TB has received inquiries from multiple potential trade partners.
Either way, in the next day and a half, "Revis Island" will likely no longer be located in sunny Florida.
Where might Revis end up if another team wants to trade for the cornerback? If no one can work out a trade, which team will run to the phone to talk free agency with one of the best cover cornerbacks in the NFL?
The four teams that follow are contenders with the need for a shutdown corner. They also have or could create cap room for Revis.

Comedian John Oliver Rides 'Drumpf' Wave to the USPTO
Donald Trump isn't the only one filing trademarks in the hopes of capturing this election cycle's headlines. Comedian and "Last Week Tonight" host John Oliver recently amassed a great deal of news coverage and social media shares with his satirically scathing twenty-one-minute segment on Trump's presidential bid. Oliver concluded the segment by reviving Trump's apparent ancestral name, Drumpf, and mobilizing his young, Internet-savvy following to spread the 'truth' on Trump. Oliver pulled out.. Read More

Finding the Balance Between the Media Protection and the People's Privacy
Invasion of privacy in United States is divided into three big categories; (1) Publicly disclosing private facts; (2) Depicting a person in a false light; and (3) commercial exploitation of a person's name or likeness. It is not too difficult to see that the law in United States highly favors the media through its implementation of several protections. The first category is "public disclosure of private facts." This involuntary loss of privacy tort.. Read More

In the picture I am wearing one of my "qweaters," that is a quilt-sweater combination, with a knitted back and sleeves, with a quilted front. Posing in front of my Snow Crystals quilt that was the cover quilt, Quilter's Newsletter January 1999.
Although I have been playing with fabrics and threads since childhood, I didn't make my first quilt until 1969, but by 1982 quilting became my passion. I have had several years of in-depth study of quilt history, design and techniques with some very traditional and non-traditional quilt teachers.
Since then one of my quilts won an Honorable Mention at the American Quilt Society in Paducah, KY and have had eight quilts juried into American Quilter's Society Show in Paducah, KY and four into the International Quilt Assn in Houston, TX.
I also have numerous patterns and books published, as well as teaching quilt classes on line at Quilt University. The book "A Thread Runs Through It," is based on my one woman play, which has been wonderful to present to guilds.
My website keeps me busy too. For over ten years I have been presenting an Applique Block of the Month at http://bdieges.com.
Wake up to these lively chickens! They are so silly, you have to laugh. They will brighten even a gloomy day. This pattern, comes together quickly. It has a small amount of applique, the sun needs to be applied over the rays and that can be done on the machine or by hand or even fused.
Copyright bdieges designs(c)2012. All rights reserved. You are welcome to make quilts from these patterns for yourself or as gifts. Please, I ask you NOT to photocopy, reproduce in any way, using any means or market the patterns with the intent to sell or to share. Please do not give copies of the patterns to your friends. Send them here to purchase their own pattern. If you aren't sure, email me and ask. Let's keep the creative spirit of crafting alive, and give credit where credit is due.

'The Impossible,' 'Zero Dark Thirty' and 'Holy Motors' are the best films of 2012
2. "Zero Dark Thirty"
Kathryn Bigelow's startling achievement chronicles the 10 year hunt for Osama Bin Laden and intentionally leaves you pondering what's next. Not just for Maya (Jessica Chastsain), the CIA operative who makes it her personal obsession to find Bin Laden, but the nation as a whole.
1. "The Impossible"
A remarkable masterpiece from director Juan Antonio Bayona, "The Impossible" transports the viewer into the perilous journey of a family whose life is almost swept away by the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami while on holiday in Thailand. Based on a true story - perhaps more true than any "true story" this year - the drama is a riveting experience that will leave you breathless and emotionally drained. No other film moved me more.
"Silver Linings Playbook"
A career pinnacle for David O. Russell. Funny, moving and oh, so real.
"Perks of Being a Wallflower"
A great coming of age movie for adults. Will grow in stature over the years.
"Anna Karenina"
A gorgeous, expertly directed adaptation of Tolstoy's classic novel. Imagine if Kate Winslet had been the lead instead of Knightley?
Two very good movies in one.
"The Cabin in the Woods"
Would have been a sensation if released two years ago as planned. Now, an instant cult classic.
"The Dark Knight Rises"
Unfairly judged under a microscope because of its predecessor, "Rises" is still one of the best 20 movies of 2012 and easily one of the best comic book or superhero movies of all-time.
"End of Watch"
A very good movie featuring the best work of Jake Gyllenhaal's career.
"Rust and Bone"
A great movie until it severely falters in the third act.
"Magic Mike"
The most unexpected polarizing studio release of the year.
"21 Jump Street"
Funnier than anyone ever expected. Almost makes you hope they don't make the scheduled sequel.
"The Master"
Knockdown, classic performances. Unfortunately, most of the critics in America won't admit they have no idea what it wants to say (and no, Anderson didn't intend for it to be a rorschach test for moviegoers).
Loved the performances, but not sure some of Haneke's choices work as intended though.
"Life of Pi"
The most beautiful second act of any film in recent memory.
Frustrating, but compelling.

Chevron Corp. on Tuesday became the latest oil giant to bet big on the natural gas in Pennsylvania's Marcellus Shale, agreeing to pay $4.3 billion for Atlas Energy Inc., a producer with deep Philadelphia roots.
Chevron, the nation's second largest oil producer, agreed to take over publicly held Atlas, which has headquarters in Moon Township near Pittsburgh but whose braintrust is based in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia businessman Edward E. Cohen, chairman and chief executive of Atlas, said the sale price represents an 800 percent return since Atlas was spun off in 2004 from Resource America Inc., the specialty finance company he runs from headquarters in the Navy Yard.

"I couldn't find a job anywhere."
"I was in rough shape… off my meds and all."
Suffering from a long-term disability that affected his memory, Navy Veteran Shayne Babineau was out of work, homeless and struggling to find his way after his return from Desert Storm in 1991.
He sought help with both housing and health care from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). He began using My HealtheVet to track his personal health related information. A Veterans' shelter in Worcester, Mass., gave him a place to stay.
"They helped me a lot. They got me back on track, and there were other Veterans to talk with so I didn't feel alone," Babineau said. "Eventually, I was able to move to a temporary housing shelter in Shrewsbury Mass.. I have my own room here, and I'm feeling like I'm back on track. I'm looking to get my own place now."
Babineau credits better health care as a big factor in this journey. "VA helps tremendously with meds and health care," he explains. "And My HealtheVet is a big, big part of that. Without it, I'd be in a real mess."
Using My HealtheVet allowed Babineau to login to the system and keep track of appointments, refill prescriptions and talk with his health care team through Secure Messaging.
Babineau also uses My HealtheVet to read up on health problems and stay informed about his own health risks. He uses the Blue Button to download and print his health records. "I think every Veteran should use My HealtheVet. I mean, why not? There's no down side. Only good."
VA's number one priority is to end Veteran homelessness by 2015. Recently, VA reported that the number of homeless Veterans decreased by 12 percent between 2010 and 2011. VA provides transitional and temporary housing as well as prevention programs and family assistance, all working together.
Roger Casey, Director of the VA's National Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program explains, "VA has coordinated with the community to offer emergency shelter as well as permanent housing for Veterans."
VA has a "no wrong door" policy for homeless Veterans, according to Casey. Veterans can get help with homeless services at VA medical centers and benefits offices and through community-based programs.
VA's programs for homeless Veterans and their families can be accessed through:

When former U.S. Marine photojournalist Gabriel St. James arrives in Shelter Bay to help out a fellow Marine, the last thing he expects is to meet a woman like Charity.

She's known men like Gabe before-but with a shared attraction impossible to deny, Charity and Gabe agree to a simple affair with no expectations. But as summer unfolds, and Gabe finds reasons to extend his stay in Shelter Bay, he and Charity realize that there's nothing simple about falling in love, and nothing easy about the choices of the heart.

Former Marine Pulitzer Prize winning photojournalist Gabriel St. James arrives in Shelter Bay as a favor to a Semper Fi besotted battle buddy Cole Douchett (see The Homecoming). When he and Harborview Veterinary Clinic veterinarian Charity Tiernan meet at the nuptials he works a mission, they are attracted to one another. However, she considers a short fling with the visiting veteran as she has no time for anything permanent while running her "no-kill" shelter. A rolling stone, he shocks himself as he wants much more from the animal doctor than a week-night stand though he agrees to a tryst to buy time in order to campaign for more. Although Gabe completed his mission that brought him to town and his head orders him to retreat, his rebellious heart delays his leaving hoping to persuade Charity they belong together. However as kids and a dog enter their lives he lacks the courage to move to the next level while she bravely embraces the change in their relationship. The newest Shelter Bay contemporary romance (see On Lavender Lane) is an engaging tale that hooks the audience from the time the lead couple meets as the relationships matures over the course of the well written story line. Although there is some suspense brought by the kids but for the most part the plot is character driven straighter than the Bonneville Flats yet the talent of JoAnn Ross shines as readers will enjoy visiting Shelter Bay. Harriet Klausner
Reviewed by Aubrey Review originally posted at Romancing the Book One Summer is the second novel in JoAnn Ross' Shelter Bay series. Gabe, is an ex-Marine who is now a photojournalist. He is in Shelter Bay to shoot the wedding of his fellow Marine. He never intends to meet a woman let alone fall in love with one. Charity, is a newcomer to Shelter Bay. She left her ex-fiancé at the alter and moved across the country to start a new life. Neither one is really open to love but sometimes you have to open yourself up in order to be happy. Both feel that their past relationships could dictate future behavior. They both need to get over that in order to find peace with themselves and with each other. Charity really wants to get married eventually and have children whereas Gabe prides himself on being a bit of a gypsy or nomad. I really liked finding out how Ross would bring them together or not. I really like Ross' style of writing in that she introduces many different characters. You just know they will turn up in a future novel. You may not understand how they fit into the storyline while reading but you eventually understand and it makes for a more pleasurable reading experience. As always Ross was able to make me forget what was going on around me and focus in on the small town dynamics as well as a love story. Her love stories always bring together two very strong characters that feel like they don't deserve love or to be happy.
I love it
JoAnn Ross takes us back to the idyllic world of Shelter Bay in One Summer. Gabriel St. James travels to Shelter Bay as a favor for a fellow ex-Marine. Shelter Bay will just be a quick in and out for Gabe. He promised to take pictures of his buddy's wedding. Next thing he knows he has a dog that the local vet thinks is perfect for him. Charity Tiernan is one veterinarian that intrigues Gabe more then he is willing to admit to at first. Charity Tiernan moved to Shelter Bay for a simpler way of life and to escape her broken engagement. Charity has come into her own there and enjoys her life. She feels like she belongs there and lacks for nothing. After leaving her ex groom to be at the altar Charity was positive she wasn't ready to be attracted to anyone. Gabe St. James is like no man she has ever met. Even though he is tough and strong there is something vulnerable about him. Charity and Gabe slowly circle each other in the time old ways of dating. Charity draws Gabe into the community and notices he isn't as uncaring as he initially seemed to be. Both go into this relationship knowing Gabe's stay on Shelter Bay isn't a long one but when their feelings grow deeper will Gabe be able to leave? One Summer is exceptional. It is an emotional journey that will tug at your heart. Both Charity and Gabe has to let go of the past in order to give the future a fighting chance. The secondary characters add another dimension of feelings that will pull you in deeper. This story is another keeper from JoAnn Ross, her stories are a delight from page one. Looking forward to the next book from her.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - The two best shortstops in Phillies history are together again.
The older one was perceived as being great because he squeezed every ounce of his ability from his once scrawny body to become a five-time all-star and three-time Gold Glove winner. He got so good that he finished third in the National League MVP voting in 1978.
The younger one was perceived as being great because he had so much pure talent - five tools incomprehensible for a man of his size - and it allowed him to become a three-time all-star, a four-time Gold Glove winner, and the 2007 National League MVP.

The lack of progress on the debt ceiling negotiations has raised serious concerns that an agreement will not be reached before the August 2nd deadline. How have the negotiations gotten so derailed?
In a recent interview on Radio Boston, Professor Robert Bordone, director of the Harvard Negotiation and Mediation Clinical Program, suggested that one of the biggest obstacles in these negotiations is that they are not being conducted in a closed door environment, where trust could be built and maintained. By speaking out in the media so often, both parties have heightened tensions and made compromise more difficult. "The more they go to the public and embarrass each other, the more they raise the stakes for each of them in the next political election cycle," says Bordone.
Similarly, Professor Dan Shapiro, author of Beyond Reason and faculty affiliate of the Program on Negotiation, noted recently that the negotiation has been framed as a "war," in which only one side can win. This framing has made the negotiation more difficult. "There's very little listening, very little learning — mutual learning — very little cross-group communication, very little creative thinking."
As the negotiations head into the final hours, perhaps tactics will shift. "Often times a looming deadline does help parties reach an agreement," Bordone noted in an interview with CNN. "But whether or not there is a good outcome, this process could have been less painful."

Pros: Smooth performing.

Great looking, slim design, really cool keyboard, low price with this i5 version.
Worth mentioning, the fan is fantastic. Never encounter one overheating problem even at heavy gaming.
Cons: Screen, Screen, and the Screen. The color is kinda washed out. It's fine when watching films or playing games, but really annoying when scanning websites. The text is blur to me.
Glad there are videos on youtube about how to change the screen of Y50, just additional 100 bucks.
Other Thoughts: Great laptop, worth buying.READ FULL REVIEW

Understanding Toddlers
Posted by Roberta Handel
More than 100 years ago Dr. Maria Montessori described "the absorbent mind" of children during their first three years of life as the most critical period in each child's brain development. Recent research reveals that babies have an innate moral code and make decisions about themselves and others from a very early age. This insight reinforces the Montessori perspective that humans have astonishing mental capacity from birth.
How can parents support each child's explosive brain development? Become a skilled observer – an expert on your child's needs. Young children telegraph their needs very clearly. Fortunately, most parents naturally respond to their babies' babbles and cries, their grasping for things to touch and their urge to explore. Children need to move, to have multiple sensory experiences in order to understand the world around them.
Building muscles is critical to building coordination, which is critical to developing concentration and independence. Let your toddler push, pull, climb, and roll. Let them get dirty. Let them play outside. Let them run and when they fall, pick them up, brush them off, and send them back to play some more. Overreacting sends the message to the child that they need you to protect them. It robs them of the courage to fail and try again. Parents who stress over normal bumps and scrapes and strive to keep their toddlers safe at all costs deprive them of the most natural and critical learning possible.
Curiosity and persistence are character traits that parents can influence in their children in order to help develop resilient, healthy adults. Become an expert on your child's development by observing and providing a myriad of experiences to meet their demonstrated needs. It's the best way to maximize individual brain power and give your child a leg up in an uncertain world.

The Leadership Institute [LI], an organization founded by its President Morton Blackwell, has just joined the long list of conservative groups inappropriately targeted by the IRS.
According to LI's website, the organization received a notice on June 1, 2011 of an audit of its tax return and activities in 2008; 2008 is the year President Obama was elected to office. For more than a year, the IRS requested 23,430 pages of records which included a list of 2008 interns and their future employers, sample emails between employers and LI regarding ConservativeJobs.com and how LI's more than 300 trainings are advertised.
"The IRS' indefensible behavior is worse than we first thought, as it targeted both new and existing conservative groups in politically motivated attacks," Blackwell said in a statement. "Fortunately my Leadership Institute had the resources to stand up to the government's bullying and intimidation. Other groups, including grassroots and tea party groups we've helped train, did not. Defending ourselves from the harassing audit cost my organization more than $50,000 in legal fees alone."
The mission of the Leadership Institute is to recruit, train and place conservatives in government, politics and media. It was founded in 1979. Blackwell oversaw the national youth effort for Ronald Reagan in 1980. Blackwell also served as a Special Assistant to Reagan from 1981-1984.

A few months after Our Angel My Baby crossed over Rainbow Bridge, mommy and daddy went to a shelter. They didn't find the right kitty and were not sure it was time yet. That night Daddy asked Angel My Baby to let them know when the time was right. My little sister Tawnee and I were at the vets in a cage for 2 years. Our previous owner didn't have room in their apartment for us but they wouldn't let us go to find someone who did. It wasn't all bad there. It is a very busy practise with lots of people who work there. They gave us lots of love and took the best care of us. There were tears of joy shed that daddy and mommy adopted us together. When our owner finally did let us go, My Baby made sure mommy was the first one through the door to see us. It took her about 3 seconds to realize we were adopting her. Later that day when daddy and mommy came for a play date with us, it took daddy about 3 seconds to realize we were adopting them. Our dopty day is 4/21/12. Daddy's birthday is 4/23 My BDay is 12/23

Nativia celebrates
Once upon a time there was a beautiful sunny day just like today in 22.5.2012. The very first bag of Nativia brand saw the light of the word. No one believed that we can succeed on already crowded market among global brands. Moreover, with the idea of healthy life style, quality raw materials and marketing communication. We have 3 years of Nativia brand today on the market. Its share is not in tens of percent but is measurable.
New products with REAL MEAT
Let us introduce our new product range for dogs with fresh meat. As you noticed we have 3 kinds of taste as RABBIT&RICE, BEEF&RICE and CHICKEN&RICE of course free of grain, only high quality digestible rice.
Our new product range contains up to 89% of protein of animal origin. Source of protein is fresh chicken meat, fresh rabbit meat, fresh beef meat, hydrolysed protein of salmon, hydrolysed chicken meat and liver.
New product - Nativia Active
Dear friends of Nativia brand,
let us briefly introduce our product Nativia Active.
As the name suggests, composition of the product is designed for active dogs who need food with sufficient energy in concentrated form. That is why the recipe contains pork fat.
We continue in the logic of our brand "grain free - rice only". This means the product doesn't contain grain, only high quality and highly digestible rice.
Nativia versus mycotoxins
Dear fans of Nativia brand,
Please follow closely our website where you will find soon the results of the test for mycotoxin content in our foods. Mycotoxins are poisonous and very dangerous metabolites capable to cause harm even in small dosage. They may enter the food mainly from plant material affected by fungi during growth or in storage. To make sure that our products are safe in this regard, we sent a sample of our foods to Alltech laboratories in the USA, which perform the most extensive tests for mycotoxins in foods and materials - in total, they determine 37 different types of mycotoxins.
Nativia at the University
At the beginning of the last year we addressed representatives of the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences to present Nativia s.r.o., and its philosophy with an offering to contribute to the education of future vets and basically everyone who will be working in the petfood field.
In April 2013, and for the first time ever, Nativia s.r.o. made an appearance on the academic soil to give a lecture on kibble manufacturing technology. As in the last year, we were pleased again to accept the invitation of Prof. Pavel Suchý, the rector of VFU Brno to attend the instruction of future vets and we presented our hands-on view of the basis of nutrition of dogs and cats to students of the second year. The students learnt how to calculate the energy value of food and energy need of an animal. In addition, the lecture gave an overview of the metabolism of proteins, fats, carbohydrates and recommended energy nutrition values for each category.

London, UK – April 18, 2013: Ontology Systems, the semantic search company for structured enterprise application data, announce Vodacom SA , the leading South African mobile service provider, has deployed Ontology to enhance their service assurance operations.
Ontology provides Vodacom with a comprehensive Service Assurance solution for Change Management and Fault Management operations. The solution provides a correlated view of Vodacom's transport network (SDH and MPLS) topology in relation to Vodacom's RAN network and Vodacom Business information in Siebel CRM that:
- Accurately assesses the impacts of change requests
- Simplifies fault investigations by avoiding duplication and overlaps
- Reduces cross-network impact of ad hoc transmission infrastructure fault management
- Provides possible root causes of simultaneous RAN alarms through visibility of common transmission infrastructure.
Ontology Systems' CEO and founder, Benedict Enweani, expressed: "We appreciate Vodacom's confidence in choosing Ontology and are delighted, that together, the joint project team have delivered a strategic SIA solution, on-time and under-budget. Achieving an accurate, near real-time view of a transmission network data is a significant challenge for mobile operators. Ontology's semantic search capability is ideally suited for finding and mapping the network and service dependencies hidden in an operator's application data. This is a clear example of how search technologies are lowering the risks, cost and time normally associated with complex data integrations."

About Ontology Systems
Ontology Systems is revolutionising how companies use their application data. Using semantic search technology, Ontology applies the power, simplicity and speed of search to business applications across the enterprise. Search and centralise applications, databases, files, spread sheets …anywhere, without the cost and risk of integration.
CSPs are faced with the margin erosion caused by deregulation and OTT competition. Ontology gives CSPs the agility to respond by doing away with the cost, risk, and delay of the integration typically needed to rationalize infrastructure for "smarter and faster pipes", or to exploit OSS and BSS data for "smarter more personal services". Both of these approaches are already delivering increased margins and lower operational costs.
Founded in 2006 and headquartered in London, UK, Ontology customers include Telenor, BT, Level 3, Three UK, Vodacom, MBNL, Internet Solutions and Telkom SA.

Languagetalks 2011
Speaking about Boundaries. Multilingualism in Europe and the World
Graduate Conference at Munich University
16 – 18 February 2011
The doctoral programmes of Linguistics and Literature at Munich University invite you to hand in contributions to the interdisciplinary conference Speaking about Boundaries. Multilingualism in Europe and the World. The conference, which will take place in Munich from Wednesday, 16 February to Friday, 18 February, addresses the four following core areas:
I. Language of the self and of the 'other'
Encountering the language of the 'other' may render one's own language a potential 'foreign language'. This panel invites reflections on what is alien in one's own language and on the question what makes foreign languages alien. What do misunderstandings, non-understanding and the experience of language boundaries reveal about a person's or language community's capacity of language comprehension? It is not only the confrontation with foreign languages that makes one's own seem foreign: The literary use of words, or simply the isolation of a single expression, can also lead to alienation. As Karl Krauss once put it: "The longer you look at a word, the more foreign it will look back (at you)." What literary techniques are responsible for such effects? Can alienation from one's own language be described from a linguistic point of view? From an interdisciplinary perspective, the following questions are also relevant: Can such an alienation be observed increasingly for example in foreign language acquisition, and, vice versa, to what extent is it one's mother tongue that influences learning success and strategies?
II. Power and resistance
Language encounters do not always take place between equal partners. In (post-)colonial contexts particularly, languages are used as an instrument of power. But even within Europe, political conflicts manifest themselves in the confrontation of 'smaller' languages with official national ones. For instance, how pertinent is Max Weinreich's statement that a language is "a dialect with an army and a navy"? This panel deals with the role of minority languages, official languages and language prohibitions. How can one be kept separate from the other? How are political and social affinities defined through languages and dialects? What happens to the communities' culture when a language is imposed on them? With what strategies do they confront the language of the oppressor? In the South-American and African postcolonial context, intertextually marked strategies of "writing back" play an important role; what also needs to be considered here is the question of whether there are similar attempts within Europe.
III. Language contact and hybridisation
The language confrontations leave traces, among them are creoles and other hybridisations of language, such as Spanglish in the context of the Latino-American diasporas in the United States. The "adoption" of single expressions due, for example to the international influence of English, also sheds an interesting light on the role of language contacts in periods of globalisation. In contrast to panel II, primarily the productive aspects of language encounters and acquisition are to be considered here. Translators and interpreters, in guiding the contacts between different language communities, hold an intermediate position in the network of power and linguistic creativity. Thus, they might become betrayers of their own and the foreign language, but they can also enrich and shape both languages and cultures at the same time. What is of interest in this panel, beyond the obvious influences of languages on each other, are the particular convergences that speakers are not immediately aware of. On a diachronic level, this could be, for instance, Sprachbund phenomena, or, on a synchronic level, assimilation strategies in actual discourse (for instance those of a phonetic-phonological nature).
IV. Artificial languages and language utopias
On the one hand, the term 'artificial languages (in more than one sense)' applies to the languages of arts – specific languages in a multilingual world. How do literary languages differ from other ones? On the other hand, 'artificial languages' are also planned, invented languages. Here, we are thinking of (utopic or concrete) conceptions of languages as reactions to multilingualism – such as universal languages, transparent object-languages, proto-language(s), meta-languages, ideas concerned with globally comprehensible planned languages like Esperanto or Volapük, secret languages, and also specific conceptions of literary language. Moreover, this panel aims at analysing the artificiality of several existing languages, for example the artificiality of academic languages (according to Thomas S. Kuhn) as languages which are in each case introduced by paradigmatic academic contributions and reproduced by textbooks, which are basically incommensurable and primarily attempt to limit multilingualism. Last but not least, this panel invites reflections on the political aspect in the constitution of artificial languages.
Administrative information
Abstracts containing a maximum of 400 words (including selected references) can be handed in by doctoral and post-doctoral candidates by the end of November 2010. Participants will be selected by mid-December. Presentations should take about 20 minutes (there will be time for discussion at the end) and may be delivered in either German or English. Selected contributions will be published in our languagetalks proceedings.
The panels will be opened by the following plenary speakers: Yaron Matras (Manchester), Manfred Schmeling (Saarbrücken), Ludwig M. Eichinger (Mannheim) and Ottmar Ette (Potsdam).
Please send your abstract to email@example.com by 30 November 2010.
