Google is at it again, this time offering up free Wi-Fi -- with the help of a local development association -- to the southwest corner of NYC's Chelsea district, the area surrounding its New York City offices.
The Wi-Fi network will cover more than eight blocks in the neighborhood, and according to the company, will be the largest contiguous free public Wi-Fi outdoor network in the city, IT World reports.
"We're citizens of this community and this district, and it is important to us to contribute back and this is a way to do it that resonates with us," said Ben Fried, Google chief information officer, at a press conference. "I am a lifelong native New Yorker and that is why I am excited about this announcement."
Google also provides free Wi-Fi for the Mountain View area, where its headquarters is located, but currently has no plans to bring free Wi-Fi to other cities, Fried said.
Google and the Chelsea Improvement Co., a nonprofit neighborhood development corporation, are splitting the cost of implementation and upkeep in a two-year agreement. The project cost is about $115,000 to install the equipment, according to IT World, and it will cost about $45,000 per year to maintain. Google picked up two-thirds of the cost and Chelsea Improvement paid the other third. New York City's Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications helped set up the service.

Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Throne
With the legendary heroes Highlord Tirion Fordring of the Argent Crusade and Highlord Darion Mograine of the Knights of the Ebon Blade joining forces to lead the charge through the fortified gates of Icecrown Citadel, members of the Horde and Alliance will be called to end the reign of the Lich King once and for all. It may be the greatest challenge our most courageous adventurers have yet seen.
Let us take you through our latest preview, Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Throne, the upcoming epic raid dungeon in patch 3.3.
Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Halls
Looming over the stark wastes of Northrend, the Icecrown Citadel awaits those who would see the Lich King and his Scourge brought low and the threat they pose wiped from the face of Azeroth. The heroes who venture within will face some of the greatest challenges and horrors yet seen. But before you burst in the front door of the Citadel itself, an alternate means of entry awaits you, with an epic journey into the new five-player dungeon, Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Halls.
Journey with us into our preview of Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Halls to find out more of what's in store.
New Dungeon System
Much like the current Looking For Group system, players will be able to join the dungeon system and choose the role they would like to fill within groups: Healing, DPS, or Tank. In addition, once roles have been identified, they will be applied to all dungeons chosen. Players will now be able to choose multiple dungeons and will no longer be limited to three. The system has also improved group creation and matchmaking capabilities and will create more balanced groups when assessing the selected roles of players.
New Quest Feature
We're making several improvements to the user interface for tracking quest objectives in our 3.3 content update. These new features will serve to improve the questing experience for players through a multitude of new tracking options.

Find out more about the quest to build Shadowmourne, available in the upcoming Fall of the Lich King content update, in our new preview of the legendary weapon Shadowmourne.
Quel'Delar: The Sister Blade
In ages past the great Dragon Aspects worked alongside the night elves to forge powerful prismatic blades that could be used to thwart any evil that came into the world. They would become known as the blades of Quel'Serrar. One of these blades, which had become lost in time, was recently unearthed again by brave heroes of Azeroth. Now rediscovered, Quel'Serrar is revered once more as a mighty tool of raw power.
Its sister blade, however, has not been seen for many years...
Lady Jaina Proudmoore
As one of Azeroth's most gifted magi, Jaina commands an array of potent spells. These spells grant her the ability to teleport, summon water elementals, and unleash frigid blizzards upon her enemies. The true extent of Jaina's powers, however, goes far beyond the examples listed here
Queen Sylvanas Windrunner
The Dark Lady, Sylvanas Windrunner, is no stranger to the Lich King's cruelty. During the Third War the death knight Arthas led a Scourge army into Sylvanas' homeland, Quel'Thalas, in order to use the Sunwell's powerful magic as a means to raise the fallen necromancer Kel'Thuzad into undeath. As the ranger-general of Silvermoon, Sylvanas valiantly fought against the Scourge, but Arthas managed to defeat her in battle

To shed some light into the chilly gloom of Icecrown Citadel, we sat down to talk about the decision-making process behind Wrath of the Lich King's ultimate dungeon, the World of Warcraft team's design philosophy, and the dangers that lurk in the heart of Arthas's stronghold.

VW Ad Review: Only Part of the Chaos Over Car Accounts in Ad LandBy
As Volkswagen of America forges ahead with finding a new ad agency, the review that some agencies are calling the review of the decade may turn out entirely predictable.
The review for VW's $200 million -$250 million account, being handled by consultant Dick Roth, is said by sources to involve DDB; Goodby Silverstein and Partners, and possibly Deutsch; McKinney & Silver.
But various sources I have spoken with about the review say that DDB has a better than 50% chance of walking away with it. DDB handles VW in most other markets around the world. "DDB will have to really screw up to blow this," said one well placed source familiar with the political terrain inside VW.
Another strong agency in the mix, Goodby, is, like DDB, an Omnicom agency. And Omnicom could well be facing trouble on its Chrysler business. Landing VW, and even going after the media business, now with WPP, would go a long way toward replacing potentially lost Chrysler business.
Chrysler is now managed by Fiat and Chrysler's long-time agency BBDO will have to battle to keep it in the coming months. Speaking of global assignments: Fiat's agency overseas is Leo Burnett, which is on tenterhooks with GM in the U.S., with only the Buick and GMC business.
Sources also tell me that Leo Burnett management has already had conversations with Fiat about consolidating Chrysler and Fiat with the shop in the U.S., though nothing has been decided.
Not surprisingly, none of these agencies has ever been keen to compete in a review. That's why you don't see Wieden & Kennedy on these lists. Wieden has Honda in the U.K., and does great work there. The agency continues to hope, executives at the agency have told me in the past, that Honda will wake up one day and offer the business, now at Rubin Postaer, to W&K.
Even if DDB has a better than 50% of landing VW, maybe as high as 75%, VW is doing the right thing by having a review. Why not get input and thinking from leading ad agencies on your brand?
This is the argument being made in the halls of General Motors these days. New CMO Bob Lutz is now in charge of agency relationships. He is giving roster shops Campbell-Ewald, Leo Burnett, Modernista on GM's remaining brands (Deutsch has Saturn but Saturn has been sold to Penske Automotive) some time to prove they are up to helping the "New GM." But there are voices in and out of GM clamoring for a review, especially of the Chevrolet account. Why not challenge Campbell-Ewald to reinvent its approach, staff with new minds and voices, and see if some other agencies would better serve GM?
Indeed, a lack of review will send a bad message to those watching GM, and looking for fresh thinking and executions.
But back to Volkswagen. "DDB has been hanging around like an old girlfriend who won't accept the marriage," says one industry wag who has been through the VW ad wars.
It's true. It has stuck in the craw of DDB management since the 1990s when VW yanked the business and gave it to Arnold Worldwide. Then, it was on to Crispin. Meantime, DDB continued to rack up creative awards on VW…abroad.
The history between DDB and VW is, of course, rich and deep. VW pretty much created DDB back in the late 1950s when the agency first landed the account. Sure, Doyle Dane Bernbach had other business, but it was VW that launched it internationally. The agency and automaker built up VW to be the number-one import by far in the 1960s and 70s. The advertising is, and should be, studied even today for how to tell meaningful, lasting brand stories.
In fact, I believe that while you can't, and shouldn't, re-run VW advertising (as they trtied to do in the 1970s when the Rabbit was first introduced), there is so much that can be learned from that work…even today. First: The benefits of knowing your brand and product line and telling connected stories in each execution. Second: Keep doing it for years and years. Third: Do it right, and have creative, yet disciplined, people in charge of the story-telling. Fourth: Keep doing it. Fifth: Make each execution literate, clever and informative. It's possible to do all three.
Today's mix of media still involves TV, print, billboards, etc. But even in social networking, blogs, online video, etc., the story needs to be told. Too many companies, and agencies, don't get this.
If there was one place I thought Crispin under-delivered, it was in not coming up with a single story line to carry the mail for VW. There were lots of interesting ads.
But they all had the feel of one-offs, disconnected. They stirred attention, engagement. And VW's sales, down 13.5% this year compared with 32% for the industry, seem to indicate that the ads were working on sales.
Say what you want about the German accented talking Beetle in ads since last year, but the engagement metrics as measured by Nielsen/IAG showed that they caught people's attention better than most ads.
So, VW will have a new ad agency in a few months. It could well be back to the future with DDB. But if DDB doesn't show up, and Goodby or Deutsch or McKinney rings the bell, U.S. management may have to go out on a limb again and argue to continue to go their own way whilst the rest of the company uses DDB for the most part.
And here is another prediction: Crispin Porter Bogusky+Partners won't long be without a car account. There are brands out there battling for attention. And if Crispin has proved one thing, it is that it knows how to get attention for its brands.
p.s on this blog....
The ads Crispin created for the GTI back in 2006 were heavily criticized. I actually think they were terrific, but should have been mostly confined to a series of Net videos.
This was an interactive video that was done as part of the campaign.
And here was one of the ads.
I think the lesson here was to direct some over-the-top stuff to specific audiences online and maybe some very specific cable programming.

Yes, it's winter now. But for those dreaming of spring and lush, green lawns, the news from Indiana is that a trip to the chemical shelf at the garden center isn't your only option. Though, counsel turf grass researchers at Purdue University, creating a beautiful lawn does require some work.
The researchers compared four lawn-care strategies –
- Doing nothing (they called this 'no-input')
- Using typical garden center synthetic pesticides and fertilizers
- Integrated Pest Management (using techniques such as de-mulching, aerating, bringing in beneficial bugs and applying pesticides as a last resort.)
- Organic (organic fertilizers, approved organic pest control methods.)
What they found was somewhat surprising, at least to those whose idea of lawn care revolves around a lawnmower and a spray bottle of Roundup.
The highest ratings, meaning "significantly improved visual appearance" compared to doing nothing at all, came from using either a program of integrated pest management or common lawn care products.
Which didn't mean that organic didn't work. In fact, the natural organic program produced lawns of similar quality on the majority of rating dates, it just wasn't quite as nice as the other two.
Their findings are in a recent issue of the journal HortTechnology, a publication of the American Society for Horticultural Science.
And actually, "the no-input program also resulted in canopy greenness levels similar to or significantly greater than those provided by the Integrated pest Management Program and Consumer Program on most dates," Purdue entomologist Victoria Caceres, one of the paper's authors, said in a release.
In terms of cost, doing nothing was cheapest, followed by integrated pest management.
The moral of this story is that those seeking lovely lawns might have more choices than they realize, the researchers say in their paper.
"The results highlight how incorporation of scouting into different fertility and pesticide programs may provide short-term economic benefits without any significant aesthetic impacts."

Nominated for an Oscar this year in the animated short category, Logorama is a 15 minute film that's a cross between Pulp Fiction and 2012, with lots of violence and NSFW dialogue, and exists in a world made of nothing but well-known corporate logos. Let's hope it wins.

Hey- Whats going on everyone? I discovered today my passanger fog light on my 09 wrx (that i have had for like 2 months) is shattered.
It's due for an oil change (and I bought the prepaid maintenance) so she'll be going to a dealer in MD soon (I live in white marsh). In fact, it'll probably go sometime this week.
What are the odd's that a dealership is going to help me out and throw a new bulb and new glass/plexiglass on there? Or does the entire thing just get replaced? I'd like to avoid shelling out any money since I just threw down like 30K (TTT, extended warranty, prepaid maintenance, and an 09 wrx hatch) two months ago.
Also - Is there a better chance of me getting "hooked up" if I go to a specific dealership in MD? There is a younger guy up at Jones in Bel Air who has actually been really nice to me. I almost bought a car from him but he sold it 2 days before the day I came with check in hand. I have heard good things about the place in Glen Burnie and Annapolis. Should I drive the extra distance to go there?
Thanks guys!

Healthy Input / Fit Output
Are you interested in learning how to start a record label? You're in luck because that's exactly what we want to talk about. Not how to start a music company, exactly, but stuff about the music business. And this stuff we're talking about is all stuff that record companies do.
The things that we'll cover in this e-book are related to all the different aspects of the music business. You don't need a major record label to start building your music empire. In fact, in the beginning of your career you're expected to do all of these things yourself. There is still a place for major record labels in this business.
And yes, if you want to be a Lady Gaga or a 50 Cent, you need that major label backing. But that does not mean you need that to live off your music. You can build a sustainable career (and literally live off of your music) as an independent music artist.
Even if you hope to one day get a major label record deal, you'll need to begin building your fan-base and your music business yourself. And that's why it still makes sense to start a record company. The good news is all of this has never been easier and more affordable to do. It will still take time, hard work and money, but you can do it all without a major label budget.
That's why in this guide we'll go over the following to help you get started with building an independent career making your own music:
Your mindset
The creative side of making your music
Music making basics
Choosing beats and instrumentals
Writing and recording your songs
Making your music sound professional
The business side of making a living from your music
Distribution of your music
Promotion and marketing of your music
Creating products and income streams to make money from your music
The overall stuff about starting a record label
Use this guide as a starting point to learning all about how to become a singer or rapper professionally. But don't just stop there, build an empire. You really should consider starting your own record label. Many people have done it in the past and they love it.

Many people know that you can buy gold stocks or invest in companies that mine gold. But some are left wondering how can you own actual physical gold. Wouldn't it be crazy to have a bunch of gold as your retirement fund? How many people can actually say they own gold bullion?
You'd be surprised to know that actually a lot of people can say that about their portfolio because they've done the research. That's because they've invested a portion of their portfolio in a Gold IRA. A gold IRA is basically a retirement account that is made up of physical gold holdings. That's right – no stocks or ETFs, but actual gold bullion.
Now you can probably see why it's so popular. Some of these people choose to rollover their retirement savings into a Gold IRA and let it sit there. The great thing about finding a good gold ira custodian is that they handle everything for you. You don't actually have to do any of the hard work. They'll purchase, transport and sometimes store your gold for you. And they'll send you the ownership information.
The only thing you need to be wary of is the company that you choose to do business with. Choose the wrong gold ira company and you leave yourself open to scams. Regal Assets (review) is one of those good companies that many people rely on. You should give them a call to learn more if you are interested.
It's worth bearing in mind that you don't have to go the traditional route when it comes to retirement savings and planning. There are many options available to you. And if you're an aficionado of physical commodities a gold ira might be right up your alley.
