President and CEO of CBC, Hubert T. Lacroix (above), gave his first public address today since going through some tough budget cuts. Speaking to the Economic Club of Canada in downtown Toronto, he addressed the main issues facing CBC today and spoke of the future of the Canadian public broadcaster.
Some other big names of the CBC were in attendance, including Executive Vice President of English Services, Kirstine Stewart, Jian Ghomeshi, Anna Maria Tremonti, Amanda Lang and Dwight Drummond.
"As Bob Dylan said, the times they are a-changin'," started Lacroix. Citing the surge of iPhones, iPads, Facebook and the fact you no longer need a radio to actually listen to radio broadcasts, he demonstrated how things have indeed changed, even just over the past four years since he took the job of President and CEO. This proved to be one of the main points of his speech: CBC, too, is changing with the times. For the better.
Take CBC Music, for example: "The kind of world class initiative that you should expect from your public broadcaster." Already, Canadians in every part of the country have streamed millions upon millions of hours of Canadian music on their computers, on their smartphones and on their tablets thanks to CBC Music and its forty genre streams. It plays a huge part in CBC's vision for the future.
CBC Hamilton, the first of five innovative new digital services, is another way that CBC is looking to move forward in the digital world, in turn connecting with as many Canadians as possible all over the country. The web portal features a "pinned" map of the city that acts as a physical representation of all of the stories and events happening in the area. There are traffic alerts, weather, things to do and - of course - local news.
Launching too in Kamloops, London, Saskatoon and the Waterloo region, these local services are just one of the ways CBC is collaborating and complementing "everyone and everything else that's out there to ensure that we are, and can continue to be, the first place that Canadians think of when it comes to the Canadian experience, Canadian culture and Canadian democratic life."
According to Lacroix, "anything short of that isn't good enough."
Despite the recent cuts, Lacroix said that "we will hold to our commitment to be more Canadian, more regional and more digital."
When it came to the money issue, Lacroix moved to dispel the argument that CBC shouldn't receive public support when the other networks in Canada receive none. Why? Because they do receive public support: "All media organizations benefit significantly, one, from sources like the Canada Media Fund and the Local Programming Improvement Fund and, two, through direct or indirect regulatory or fiscal advantages."
"Canadian programs cost a lot of money. So why keep producing them? Because a big, diverse, geographically dispersed country that doesn't have the means to tell its own stories, share its common experiences, debate its issues, doesn't stay knitted together for long. Television and radio might not be the only means of bringing Canadians together. But right now, for sure, they are the most effective and cost efficient ones."
"Without the public broadcaster, there would be fewer Canadian stories being told, shared and experienced, and the viability of the Canadian media production sector would be in serious doubt."
"We're all in this together. While it's clear that we play different roles, we have a mutual interest in keeping Canadians connected and satisfied, and we should recognise that as such."
We've heard how the budget cuts will be offset - by doubling digital revenue, increasing advertising on television and radio, and leasing excess real estate - but that's not going to let the vision for the future change: "Where we are going has never been clearer; getting there is our focus," said Lacroix. "Public broadcasting is today at the centre of Canadian cultural and democratic life, and it's pushing ahead the way a modern public broadcaster should - quickly and in concert with Canadians' evolving expectations."
CBC love to hear from the people of Canada and what they want, and that's what Lacroix says we're delivering, and will continue to deliver for future generations and whatever may evolve in this digital world, despite financial plight. CBC has a huge place in the heart of many Canadians, and, according to Lacroix, "together, we can continue to create and nurture that culture and that democracy that we want to see."

Update: If you're looking for 2015 New Year's Eve games, head over to this post for four new 2015 New Year's Eve party games created just for this year and these New Year's Eve minute to win it games are hilarious too! And don't forget your 2015 New Year's Eve playlist to keep everyone at your party moving!
If you like these ideas, you'll love my games from 2013's New Year's Eve party too! They're a little different and have versions for 2015 too!
This post may contain affiliate links where I make pennies on any purchases you make through my links. Thanks for supporting my board game and striped straw addiction.
Last night Richie and I co-hosted a New Year's Eve party with our good friends, the Morgans, that live in our same building. And after last night I've decided that I'm never hosting a party alone again. Having another couple help out made setup, cleaning, and cooking so much easier, especially since they just live downstairs and could go grab things that I forgot.
If any of you have ever been to one of our parties or done anything with me, you know I'm a planner. I'm okay going to a party that is just people hanging out but I like to be creative and throw in a couple of small things to make the party more memorable. So when we decided to throw this party I started searching the internet for New Year's Eve party ideas for adults. And there were a couple of things out there but most of them were types of drinking games or other things I didn't think were appropriate for our group. So using things I've seen on Pinterest as inspiration, I planned the party on my own. And hopefully the next person that Googles New Year's Eve Party games for adults can get ideas from our party.
New Year's Eve Decoration Ideas
I tried to keep the decorations simple but unexpected. The noisemakers were really cheap at the party store and the stars were leftover from our Black and White Party last year. I saw this balloon chandelier on Pinterest a while back and knew I was going to try it at our next party. It was so simple to make (put pennies or marbles in the balloons to weight them down) and it was a hit.
New Year's Eve Games & Ideas
Another idea I saw on Pinterest was a mom that made countdown bags for her kids to help them stay awake until midnight. Her bags were full of cheap treats and goodies. I thought the idea was fun and came up with the idea of doing countdown boxes with games and prizes for each hour of our party. We didn't actually end up opening the boxes right at 9:00, 10:00, and 11:00 but it was somewhere in that hour that seemed like a good stopping point for the group. Each box was based on a theme and contained three different things – the theme, a game/activity, and a prize.
New Year's Eve Game #1 – Pop Culture Trivia
The 9:00 box was all about the past year with the theme "We Were There." The game was 2011 events and pop culture trivia and the prize was movie tickets. It was pretty entertaining to see how frustrated people got when they couldn't remember things like who won the Super Bowl. I was pretty impressed, out of 31 total points possible the winner got 21 correctly.

<<Download the 2015 Events and Pop Culture Trivia Game>>
New Year's Eve Game #2 – Match Celebrities to Their Resolutions
The 10:00 box theme was New Year's Resolutions and looking forward to 2012. The game was to match celebrities to their 2012 New Year's resolutions. Luckily enough there were a number of articles with resolutions for the stars. This one was pretty fun because it was really just everyone guessing to see if they could come up with the right answers AND some of the stars' resolutions were hilarious. My favorite was Rob Kardashian's resolution to launch his new dress-sock line successfully in 2012. What was even better was that the winner of this game got 8 out of 11 resolutions correct by sheer guessing. He won a $12 Panera gift card for his efforts.

The final 11:00 box's theme was celebrate. It was filled with noisemakers and toys for celebrating the new year. There wasn't really a game associated with the theme other than one of the noisemakers had a lucky sticker on it (I didn't tell anyone while they were choosing). The person who picked the lucky noisemaker won a $12 Target gift card because who doesn't love Target. The best noisemaker of the night, however, was the conch shell brought by our friend Ryan.
And finally for the midnight celebration we broke out the sparkling juice – red grape, white grape, and apple cider – with fake plastic champagne cups. Because plastic champagne cups makes drinking sparkling juice way more fun.
New Year's Eve Party Food
Again, we tried to keep the food as simple as possible. We made most of the savory dishes and our co-hosts brought some beautiful looking desserts. Most of our savory dishes were better hot so we prepped three batches of each and just kept throwing things in the oven for a few minutes when they started to run low. It worked beautifully and I don't think anyone was ever hungry. For the first time I ever I also copied all of the cute parties I've seen out there and made fun labels for the food. It was easy and amazing how much cuter it made the whole setup. Oh and of course we had to have drinks – citrus water, lemonade, and diet coke.
We also had this really good cowboy chip dip, buffalo chicken dip (so easy), and everyone else brought either a sweet or salty snack to share. So yes, we had plenty of food.
New Year's Eve Party Favors
One of the first things I decided when starting to plan the party was that I really wanted to send people home with something. We ended up sending everyone home with plates of food so we didn't have to keep it all, but I wanted to send them home with something else. When I searched the internet the only ideas I could find were breakfast and hangover remedies, neither of which really seemed appropriate. So I decided to make a CD, not of the top Billboard songs from 2011 that most people have heard on the radio a million times this year, but of our favorites songs from 2011. It definitely included some of the biggest hits (Rolling in the Deep, Party Rock Anthem, Last Friday Night), but it also included some of our favorites that people probably have never heard (Bulletproof Weeks by Matt Nathanson, Eyes Like Static by Rocky Votolato). And I know people don't really CDs anymore but I figure they can put it on their computer on iTunes and listen to it however they listen to music. And they were a simple way to say happy new year as people were leaving. Email me if you want the full 20 song list.
And that's it. The party was completely planned, shopped for, setup, thrown, and cleaned up in less than 48 hours. Everything was fairly simple, and that's how I think parties should be, but it all came together really well and everyone had a blast (I hope).
I know it's been a while since this party so make sure to check out my New Year's Eve parties for other years as well:
New Year's Eve 2013
New Year's Eve 2014
New Year's Eve 2015
And don't forget all of the other supplies you need for your New Year's Eve party! These are some of my favorites:
- Photo Booth Props
- Party Straw Decorations
- New Year's Eve Party Kit with Hats, Boas, Noisemakers and more
- Champagne Bottle Balloon Kit

Amid abundant agitation, jubilation and (in the case of a couple of awkward live-TV shots of Ohio State and Kansas) dejection, the 2012 NCAA Tournament bracket was born on Sunday night.
There were surprises (Iona), snubs (Washington, Northwestern) and lots of appearances by mid-major and under-the-radar teams as this year's field was revealed. Now, there are plenty of questions. Can Kentucky rebound from its loss on Sunday in the SEC tournament and make a deep run?
Which team will be this year's VCU?
Was the Big East really that good this year to get nine teams into the dance?
We'll soon find out, but in the meantime, here are all 68 of this year's tournament teams, ranked from top to bottom.
1. Kentucky (32-2, No. 1 seed, South)—The Wildcats were this close to going 19-0 in SEC play before Vanderbilt swept the conference championship out from under them, so the No. 1 overall seed will certainly be playing hungry.
2. Syracuse (31-2, No. 1 seed, East)—The Orange stumbled in the Big East semifinals against Cincinnati, but lost just one conference game in a completely stacked field this season.
4. Michigan State (27-7, No. 1 seed, West)—Tom Izzo takes the Spartans to the Big Dance for the 15th straight season, this time with a Big Ten championship in tow.
5. Ohio State (27-7, No. 2 seed, East)—After losing to Michigan State in the conference championship, the Buckeyes missed out on getting a top seed, so they'll either be playing hungry or playing flat.
6. Kansas (27-6, No. 2 seed, Midwest)—Another team that was clearly disappointed to not receive a top seed, the Jayhawks will still be trying to shake off the rust after a conference semifinal loss to Baylor.
7. Duke (27-6, No. 2 seed, South)—The Blue Devils were ousted early from the ACC tournament and struggled all season to assert dominance over stiff competition from North Carolina and Florida State.
Did Mizzou deserve a No. 1 seed?
9. Marquette (25-7, No. 3 seed, West)—One of nine Big East teams to gain admittance to this year's dance, the Golden Eagles finished second in the conference behind Syracuse after their seventh straight 20-win season.
10. Indiana (25-8, No. 4 seed, South)—The Hoosiers are one of five ranked Big Ten teams to make the tournament. Indiana scored big victories over Michigan State and Michigan toward season's end.
11. Georgetown (23-8, No. 3 seed, Midwest)—The Hoyas bowed out of the Big East tournament in the quarterfinals, and they've struggled down the stretch, losing three of their last six games.
12. Florida State (24-9, No. 3 seed, East)—The ACC tournament champions proved their mettle by taking down Duke and North Carolina in succession in their final two games this season for their first conference title since 1991.
13. Louisville (26-9, No. 4 seed, West)—The Cardinals lost their final two regular-season games, but still managed to pull off a win in the Big East championship.
14. Michigan (24-9, No. 4 seed, Midwest)—The Wolverines finished in a tie for first place in the Big Ten, but lost to Ohio State in the conference semifinals.
15. Wisconsin (24-9, No. 4 seed, East)—The Badgers finished fourth in the Big Ten, but registered wins against Ohio State and Indiana in the final weeks of the season. They will be making their 11th straight appearance in the Big Dance.
16. Baylor (27-7, No. 3 seed, South)—The Bears finished third in the Big 12 behind Kansas and Missouri, but they took down the Jayhawks in the conference tournament before bowing out to Missouri.
17. Vanderbilt (24-10, No. 5 seed, East)—Vandy boosted its tournament resume at the last second, taking down the top overall seed, Kentucky, in the SEC championship.
18. Temple (24-7, No. 5 seed, Midwest)—The Atlantic 10 regular-season champions dominated through the middle of the season, losing just one game between January 11 and February 22.
20. UNLV (26-8, No. 6 seed, South)—The Rebels finished third in the surprisingly competitive Mountain West, and scored a big early-season win over North Carolina on November 26. They were undefeated at home for the first time in 20 years.
21. Wichita State (27-5, No. 5 seed, South)—The Shockers edged Creighton for the Missouri Valley regular-season title, but bowed out in the semifinals of the tournament.
22. San Diego State (26-7, No. 6 seed, Midwest)—The Aztecs lost to New Mexico in the Mountain West title game, and suffered an ugly three-game losing streak in early February.
23. Notre Dame (22-11, No. 7 seed, South)—In Mike Brey's sixth straight 20-win season, the Fighting Irish finished third in the Big East, but lost three of their final five games.
24. Murray State (30-1, No. 6 seed, West)—The Ohio Valley tournament champions, Murray State's only loss this season came on February 9 against Tennessee State.
25. Memphis (26-8, No. 8 seed, West)—The Conference USA-champion Tigers are a sleeper pick for the Final Four, winning 11 of their final 12 games this season.
26. Florida (23-10, No. 7 seed, West)—The Gators won 20 games for the 14th straight year, but lost three of their last four.
27. Connecticut (20-13, No. 9 seed, South)—The defending national champions had a mediocre season by their standards, finishing ninth in the Big East and paling in comparison to their conference counterparts.
29. Creighton (28-5, No. 8 seed, Midwest)—The Blue Jays triumphed over Illinois State for the conference championship, and rank first in the nation in field-goal percentage (.509).
30. Alabama (21-11, No. 9 seed, Midwest)—Making their first appearance in the NCAA tournament since 2006, the Crimson Tide won five of their final seven games.
31. St. Mary's (27-5, No. 7 seed, Midwest)—The Gaels finally knocked off Gonzaga in the conference championship, and also finished first in the West Coast Conference standings.
32. St. Louis (25-7, No. 9 seed, West)—The Billikens finished second in the Atlantic 10 and are the third team head coach Rick Majerus takes to the NCAA tournament.
33. Cincinnati (24-10, No. 6 seed, East)—The Bearcats lost in the Big East championship to Louisville, but finished fourth in the conference.
34. West Virginia (19-13, No. 10 seed, East)—The Mountaineers were a big bubble team, failing to register 20 wins and losing five of their final eight games.

Consider The Hartford for AARP members
The Hartford is the contracted insurer for members of the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), which means that members not only have access to discounted rates, but also a few key features that add to the value of membership. Policyholding members enjoy the following benefits:
12-month rate guarantee: Rates are guaranteed not to change for 12 months, which can be a benefit if you're used to a company might raises rates every six months.
RecoverCare - This is designed to help AARP members who need some assistance when recovering from an accident. It provides a $2,500 benefit to pay for necessary aid up to six months after an accident.
Lifetime policy renewal – AARP advertises that a member's auto policy will never be canceled, and while that's a valid perk for most members, there are exceptions to every rule. Consistently paying late, losing a license, convicted of driving under the influence, deemed not able to drive by a doctor or living in a state requiring elderly drivers to re-test for licenses will not make you eligible for policy revocation.

and no, not the ones from the 1920's
From C. Trent's blog:
If you weren't listening to Marc Amazon on 1530 Homer, you missed an interesting interview with Walt Jocketty.
First off, Jocketty said they'd make a decision on Homer and the rotation "in the next day."
But more than that what I thought was interesting was Marc asked him about "untouchables" with th team and Jocketty listed five: Jay Bruce, Johnny Cueto, Edinson Volquez, Joey Votto and Edwin Encarnacion.
I was surprised by Encarnacion, but vey interesting."

Sirius XM NBA: Jason Terry: "My coaching philosophy and strategies will be way more in depth and better than @Kenny Smith" #JetOnJetCrime
Kenny Smith Rumors
In the last 25 years, there have been four Game 7s in the Finals—and Crawford worked three of them. He has officiated some of the greatest players to grace the court—from Dr. J to Magic and Bird, Jordan and Malone, Shaq and Kobe, LeBron and Wade and Curry. He cherished the Game 7s—"the pinnacle of what you do"—and listed his first playoff games as his most memorable. But when pressed for favorite moments—A 60-point game? A Jordan masterpiece?—Crawford demurs. Crawford: That's one of your regrets, is that you don't get to enjoy that stuff. Because you're trying to get the plays right. I had the game with Ray Allen, Game 6 [of the 2013 Finals], where they say that's the greatest. And I think I have the game where Kenny Smith hits the seven threes [Game 1 of the 1995 Finals]. And then I have the game where Reggie Miller scores the points against the Knicks [eight points in nine seconds, in Game 1 of the 1995 Eastern Conference Semifinals]. And then Reggie, years later, he says, "Did you think I committed an offensive foul on the push-off?" I said, "If I did, I would have called it!"
The former Rockets point guard discussed his interview with Houston during TNT's pregame show Monday prior to Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. "Some of the information is sensitive … but we met," Smith said. "Then after we met, I had great talks with (team owner) Les Alexander afterwards for a couple of days. We corresponded. "The Rockets have a philosophy of what they think their coach should be. Right now, I'm here and it looks like I'm going to be here. And that's great."
Mark Berman: Kenny Smith is no longer involved in the Rockets coaching search, but really appreciates getting the chance to talk with owner Leslie Alexander and general manager Daryl Morey about the job: "The process has been great. It's been a great opportunity. I had several calls with Les Alexander. I met with him once and we talked on several occasions. It was a great process, and I wish the Rockets the best. Right now it just looks like the fit doesn't work."
Mark Berman: Kenny Smith said it meant a lot that the Rockets reached out to him about their vacant head coaching position: "It was great. I know that I'm more than capable of managing a team, more than capable of coaching a team. I audition every night without trying to by being on television. It was great that (Rockets owner Leslie Alexander) recognized that this year. When you get a chance to talk with people at that length you get to know even more about them that I didn't even know as a player. It was a great opportunity."
Mark Berman: Kenny Smith is no longer involved in the Rockets search for their next head coach. He called it a great opportunity to interview for the job: "I will be a head coach in the NBA some day. Never underestimate the heart of a champion."

Skip to comments.Rielle Hunter: I was helping John Edwards find his 'authentic self' (BARF)
Posted on 04/29/2010 12:34:40 PM PDT by BradtotheBone
Despite many people telling her it wasnt the best idea to sit down with Oprah Winfrey for an interview, Rielle Hunter - politician John Edwards' mistress - decided to do it anyway.
"I feel in my heart its the right thing to do," Hunter said Thursday, especially now that "Johnny," as she calls him, has admitted paternity of their daughter, Frances Quinn.
Hunter said she wanted to set the facts straight about who she is, and that while she understands the judgment that has been heaped upon her, she doesnt see herself as a home wrecker or gold digger, she told Winfrey.
I have been unfairly judged, Hunter said, adding that she believes people reacted so negatively to her relationship with Edwards because a lot of people bought into the myth of the marriage as being a storybook story, being so perfect and wonderful, and I destroyed it, she said.
While some have called her a gold digger, she wasnt after him for money, fame, attention. I was never after him. I met him and there was a very strong connection and attraction, Hunter said. And as for the home-wrecking accusations, Hunter observed, "Its not my experience that a third party can wreck a home. A home is wrecked before a third party comes into the picture."

Oh PUUUUUUUUUUULEEEEZZZZZZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I was searching for my authentic self, I doubt I'd look for it in some skank's cooter.
But that's just me.
I just want to be among the first to say ...
We all owe this woman a HUGE debt of gratitude.
Boy, she's gonna be a great mom. /sarc
So, his authentic self is liar, philanderer, egoist, marcissist, etc.
One of the most annoying things about these present times is that truly embarrassing people don't know when to shut up. Maybe this is the "Age of Shamelessness".
So, she's an Authentic Self Seeker. ASS for short.
Not at all to condone her actions, but I do somewhat agree with her on this point.
Wonder if "Johnny" had any other flings along the way??
I fairly judge her to be an ugly skank (at least a couple of Tiger's women were kind of sexy, although not close to his wife).
Her face looks like some high school boy's. She's one of the reasons to establish competency exams in order to vote. What a bimbo!
Actually, this is one of the most accurate things any of these bimboes have ever said, since Edwards is beyond doubt an authentic d***.
My my count she's now 46 years old, plus there's the kid. I doubt it'll be much longer before "Johnny's" eye begins wandering again.
You know, back in the 60's that's what they claimed LSD was for.
""Its not my experience that a third party can wreck a home. A home is wrecked before a third party comes into the picture."
I used to wonder if she was dumb. Now I don't have to wonder anymore.
And the porno video they made was so they could improve their performance like debate rehersals and football plays, right?
I guess she couldn't hook-up with any NBA players?
- Rielle Hunter -
Funny how they forgot about Party label, or that he ran for president as a Democrat. I'm sure that was just an oversight.
The Pravda Media told us a whole lot of myths about a whole lot of Democrats. Your point IS?
Apparently it's located just below his belt buckle.
His authentic self? A cheater scumbag? What a noble cause. /s
President and VP. And the media knew who he was just as they knew that Obama was still smoking tobacco.
Bill Clinton told Monica Lewinsky that he would leave Hillary for her.
Guys will lie to get in a girl's panties.
Jimi Hendrix and others told dozens of girls that a "song" was written about them.
Well, his authentic self sure is a jerk.
Nothing is my fault, I did nothing improper and there is no right and wrong. There just is.
Oh, Rielle, you are just soooo... I dunno.. new-agey!! What a mental midget liberal. Redundant, I know.
"If I was searching for my authentic self, I doubt Id look for it in some skanks cooter."
You're not John Edwards.
Political parters, sorta like the Clintons.
LOL!! Classic ho talk.
And glad of it.
My favorite quote that I often told my daughter many years ago is from Robert E. Lee: "Do not believe what the young men tell you".
Love it, now did he know human nature or not??
John Edwards' wife was aware of the affair. It wasn't a sudden thing. She has claimed that she thought it was over. But she was willing to cover it up to get in the White House, as you point out.
The media blacked out the story to keep Hillary in a 3 way race for delegates. Whether the people at the Enquirer ran the story for personal benefit or because the publisher is reportedly a friend of the Clintons is beside the matter. The MSM knowingly covered up this story.
Mark Halperin at Time defends the action saying they didn't have enough to go on. He also defends the coverage of unconfirmed rumors that John McCain had an affair with a lobbyist.
The media punked America in 2008. Welcome to Soviet Pravda style journalism.
Absolutely believable.Every time you said "sure,I'm free" we saw the "authentic" John Edwards...aka:Father Of The Year 2004.
Sounds great for an excuse. But if true, then why not just wait until the party is divorced since the marriage is so bad. Then bed the guy.
It doesn't matter how awful the marriage was, that's not of her business anyway. The fact is he was still married and she's a home wrecker. It would also appear a gold digger as well.
Yep, now we all know his authentic self.
What should she have said-"I'm no cheap whore; this guy is LOADED"? Some questions are asked strictly for the entertainment value of the idiotic obsfucations. Everyone knows the real answer that we'll never hear.
A "heart to heart" between a dyke and a high priced whore. And that's the news of the day. Unbelievable.
John Edwards' authentic self? Well, let's just say that if you rub him long enough, he turns into an NBA player.
Last night I told my wife I would do the dishes.
Is that what they are calling a Lewinski these days...
i guess she doesn't realize how ridiculous that sounds...
Yeah. Since I don't have an adoring public to please (FR is anonymous)I'll just have to run this "find myself through adultery and bastard child" line by the wife for test marketing.
"When did he have it last?" is always a good start.
And sadly whe actually believes it.

Q: Why did the Echidna cross the road?A: seeking shade beneath our car. More later.

With the roll of a kickball, a newly refurbished sports diamond was put into play on the Union Pleasant Elementary School campus in August. The diamond on Pleasant Avenue was brought back to life thanks to collaboration between the school district, Village of Hamburg Parks & Recreation Department, PTSA and Hamburg Bulldogs Booster Club. After a couple of days of prep work, village recreation staff joined forces with parent, teacher and youth volunteers for the finishing touches that converted a grassy area back to a diamond. It'll be used by Union Pleasant physical education classes during the school year and by the Hamburg Junior Baseball and Softball League for T-ball and girls' softball during the summer. It's also intended as a community diamond for neighborhood use, whether it's children playing sandlot ball or family kickball games.

Is migration to Canada associated with unhealthy weight gain? Overweight and obesity among Canada's immigrants
This paper aims to address a gap in our understanding of immigrant health issues by examining the determinants of excess weight--an important indicator of current and future health. The paper combines data drawn from recent large health surveys to identify how the weight of recent immigrants compares with that of native-born people, and how the likelihood of becoming overweight or obese changes with additional years in Canada. We find evidence that on average, immigrants are substantially less likely to be obese or overweight upon arrival in Canada. These measures converge slowly to native-born levels, but there is marked variation by the ethnicity of the immigrant. Since changes in weight will reflect choices with respect to diet and activity, the extent to which overweight and obesity rates change with years in Canada may reflect the extent to which immigrants interact with or are influenced by members of their ethnic group who reside in the same area. We find evidence that ethnic group social network effects exert a quantitatively important influence on the incidence of being overweight and obese for members of most ethnic minorities, tempering the process of adjustment to Canadian lifestyle norms that may be driving excess weight gain with additional years in Canada.

Talk in English - UK at ConFoo 2012
View Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/Wombert/largescale-data-processing-with-hadoop-and-php-confoo2012-20120302
Short URL: https://joind.in/talk/0edab
The MapReduce framework promises to make computing of large sets of data very easy. The approach offers excellent scalability across many computing nodes, and can easily be integrated with existing systems. This session will give an introduction to the basic techniques and ideas behind MapReduce, followed by a live demo using Apache Hadoop, a major implementation of MapReduce, and Hadoop's streaming functionality that allows users to write processing jobs not just in Java, but in any programming language, including PHP.
Comments are closed.
Fairly technical but a good presentation of the usage of Hadoop.
Probably the best presentation of ConFoo 2012 in Montreal. Was very informative and useful for those dealing with large scale infrastructures and high traffic. I would definitely suggest for any developers to attend any of David's future sessions!
Live demo is always cool. Great presentation without fuss, just real stuff. Thanks
Amazing performance, great subject! David successfully managed to keep audience's attention and bring up a live, on-the-fly, demo which ran perfectly.
Definitely one of those names you go for before reading the session's subject... :)

Losing Face
(1 January 2002, Brazil) The game of Russian Roulette, long a breeding ground for natural selection, was improved upon by two men with a unique approach to self-destruction.
On New Year's Eve, Antonio and his friend were befogged by Pinga, a traditional Brazilian liquor, when they began playing a Russian Roulette variant using holiday fireworks. Their version of the game consisted of placing fireworks in their mouths, then lighting the fuses and competing to see who would delay longest before spitting out the firework.
The man, dare we call him "winner," who discarded the explosive closest to the point of detonation was the victor of this battle of wills.
Their blatant disregard for personal safety was matched only by their foolish bravery. Antonio was our winner, holding one of the fireworks in his mouth a bit too long, and thereby thereby earning praise for his "courage" at his funeral.

Panther Pest Exterminators provide efficient bed bugs control in London which guarantees full removal of the bloodsucking insects!
If you have noticed red itchy cluster of bites on your body or small black dots on your bed sheets, your property has most likely been infested by these crawling insects. These are the top symptoms and signs of a bed bug infestation.
Bed bugs in London are one of the hardest insects to treat and get rid of, this is why Panther Pest Control can offer 100% effective heat treatment service for a completely bed bugs-free bedroom.

Facts About Bed Bugs
Bed bug bites can cause a number of health issues. The most common one is a skin rash, though bites can also cause allergic reactions and can even have nasty psychological effects.
Bed bugs can survive without feeding for a long period of time (roughly 20 to 400 days). Of course, their survival also depends on the temperature and the humidity of their environment.
Female bed bugs can produce about 200 eggs in just five days. They usually choose small cracks and crevices around bedrooms and properties to lay their eggs in.
Bed bugs don't spread by flying or jumping. They usually move from one infested property to another by crawling and through second hand furniture, laundry and luggage.
Bedbugs leave a very specific trail of bite marks which scientists call "breakfast, lunch and dinner", as they are three in a row.
Click Here to Learn More About Bed Bugs
General Information
The name gives it away – bed bugs spend a lot of time in bed. Which pretty much is not a big deal and doesn't really concern you. Unless it's your bed we're talking about. Then you should be quite alarmed because the average bed bug preys on human blood and nothing can sate its lust for warm vein juice. However, the tiny parasite is not limited to bedding only – it can plague couches and cushioned chairs as well! (Keep that in mind the next time you use public transportation and you're about to rest your head on the seat.) If these pesky home critters ever bother you, it's either the cosmopolitan common bed bug or its tropical relative which prefers warmer climate. Whether it is because it doesn't like the cold or tropical blood just tastes better, we don't know.
What color is a bed bug?As you can see on the picture, bed bugs are small, rusty or mahogany brown color when they haven't fed. After they've had a bite, they change their colour to a mix of red and brown. And if you notice a bed bug which looks kind of bloated and reddish, it's probably because of a recent blood feast. Here is how to identify if you have a bed bug problem.
How Big Is A Bed Bug?
Bed bug babies or nymphs, as they're also called, range ins size – from 0.09 inches to 0.18 inches. Adult individuals are as big as an apple seed.
Why Do They Come to Our Homes?
As you surely know, their primary diet consists of fresh blood. And there have been no recent news of bed bugs going vegan. We are sorry to inform your dogs, cats and any other fuzzy pets you might have that bed bugs find them appetising as well. Any mammal with pulse should be concerned in case the little bloodsuckers are nearby. Shelter is another reason the home invaders settle down in human dwellings. To the pilgrim bed bug, your bedding looks like a five-star hotel with an all-you-can-eat buffet. You being the only meal served, of course.
Places To Look For Bed Bugs
Bed bugs do not necessarily stay only in your bed. They have various hiding places including:
- Furniture And Home Décor Items: Mattresses, baseboards, headboards and bed frames, on the wall, especially behind pictures, dressing tables and night stands, coffee tables, luggage racks.
- Frequently Used Personal Items:
Clothing, bedding, suitcases, rucksacks, backpacks and similar, on the floor of cluttered rooms, on carpet edges, in curtains.
- They Prefer Rooms Like:
Living rooms or kitchens (only if you frequently use it as a lounge), bedrooms, closets, laundry rooms.
- Other Places:
Pet beds, boxes, door hinges, behind wallpapering seems, behind framed art or photograps, in electronic devices like cell phones, laptops and similar.
Do Bed Bug Bites Itch?
Bed bug bites are painless at first, due to anticoagolants in their saliva. Afterwards, however, the area of the bite swells and itches. Bed bugs can bite any part of your body, as long as it is exposed.
How do you get bed bugs in your home?
Bed bugs can hide in travelling bags, suitcases and similar and wait until you are inside your home. People with infested items can easily carry a few bugs in their home.
The Danger For Your Home and Health
Even if there were no side effects to it, you probably won't feel all that comfortable sleeping on a bed infested with bloodsucking animals. Luckily, a bed bug infestation comes with a truckload of horrific health effects for you. Wait, that's not lucky at all, strike that.
A range of skin manifestations is usually apparent when one is victimised by bed bugs: from barely visible effects to protuberant blisters. As if skin rashes are not enough, being the source of food for bed bugs can also cause psychological effects as well as allergic symptoms. Not to mention your pet animals will probably be "traumatised" as well.
Our Pest Control for Bed Bugs in Details
We value your privacy and our bed bug treatment will be delivered with full confidentiality. Panther Exterminators have many years of experience in treating bed bug infested properties all over London. We offer services that are individually tailored to meet the needs of the customer they are provided for.
- We will perform a full property inspection before starting the treatment, as bed bugs can often hide in mattresses, bed frames, bed heads, bedside furniture, electrical fittings and appliances, underneath carpet edges and skirting.
- Our bed bugs control service takes 2 visits, 2 weeks apart, to ensure a complete bed bug removal. On the first visit we use a pest control product which attracts the insects to the bed so they can get in contact with the substance. There is a high chance that you to find more bites on your body after the first treatment, but it is completely normal.
- The second treatment is usually 2 weeks after the first one. We use another substance to treat the infested areas to ensure full extermination of the bed bugs.
- We recommend that you don't clean or vacuum the surfaces for at least 5 days after the bed bugs pest control has taken place.
Pest Sanitation and Disinfection
After you get rid of the bed bugs at home, the sanitation at affordable rates we offer is something we highly recommend you to request. A minimum of 5 days need to pass after the bed bugs treatment to make sure the insecticides have been successful before the cleaners disinfect the premises.Request a quote
