Even Closer to Your Customers with the ISPO Business Profile
The leading sports business network ISPO is providing companies with a new, year-round service effective immediately, which uses all the advantages of online business. With the new ISPO Business Profile, companies now have the possibility to present themselves comprehensively online, directly with the users of the ISPO COMMUNITY – and consequently their relevant target group – and even build up a follower community.
Following its successful relaunch, the website of the ISPO COMMUNITY not only has a responsive design, but it also provides a new service: the ISPO Business Profile. Companies can network actively with consumers interested in sports there by taking part in projects, votes and discussions and get opinions and ideas about brands and products as a result. The basic profile is free of charge and can be enhanced with additional upgrades.
Tobias Gröber, Division Manager of Consumer Products at Messe München GmbH, answered the most important questions dealing with all aspects of the new service of ISPO COMMUNITY.
What is the ISPO COMMUNITY?
"ISPO COMMUNITY is a year-round, interactive sport community for consumers and companies. This platform provides its users with the possibility to share ideas about topics relevant to sports and vote on them via elections they create themselves. This specifically means that the ISPO COMMUNITY is an online platform, on which retailers, manufacturers and suppliers network with consumers interested in sports. As a result, we enable a completely new form of opinion polling and market research, but also customer loyalty."
What benefits do companies get in using an ISPO Business Profile?
"The dialog with consumers online is playing an increasingly important role too, and we provide the corresponding channels as the leading sports business network. With the ISPO Business Profile, we make it possible for companies to create an individual profile and present themselves optimally to consumers. Via participation in open innovation projects, votes and discussions with users in the community, companies can collect additional feedback, opinions and ideas about brands, products and innovations and build up a fan community. In addition, they can use our online platform to acquire additional range; this also attracts increased attention to their brands. Thanks to the direct connection to consumers, companies obtain direct insight into their needs and desires and consequently can develop their products much more in line with such. That which was a kind of 'black box' for companies is now becoming transparent. In turn, this ensures them increased sales and a loyal customer base, customers who identify with the brand, a fact our experience has borne out."
ISPO is currently developing a few new products. You recently launched the ISPO OPEN INNOVATION and the ISPO COMMUNITY. How do ISPO Business Profiles support this new portfolio?
"The requirements but also the expectations for trade fairs have changed substantially over the past years. Instead of pure order trade fairs, such as we had 20 years ago, the information and contact function of trade fairs is coming increasingly into the forefront. ISPO recognized this and consequently oriented itself consistently as an international full-service partner for sports business at an early stage. For example, we can provide our customers with added value not just on four days, but instead the whole year. Above all, the new ISPO offer takes the growing pressure of competition in the market into consideration, a market in which direct networking with customers is becoming increasingly important. We provide interactive options for customer acquisition and loyalty with our services. The ISPO Business Profiles are a logical further development of the potential, which the Internet makes available. We do not just want to do justice to our pioneering role offline with our leading trade fairs, but also online with our digital services. I believe that the presentation possibilities for companies in our network and the direct connection to consumers create the optimum prerequisite for successful positioning in sports business."

The director's new film takes place on the French Riviera and stars Colin Firth. Is it just escapism for grown-ups? Film critic Owen Gleiberman takes a look.
Here's a theory: if you queried every single person who went to see John Turturro's Fading Gigolo, many of them would be still laboring under the delusion that they had seen 'the new Woody Allen film'. That's not because Fading Gigolo was good. It was slipshod and daft, with a jaw-droppingly contrived novelty hook in the form of casting the 78-year-old Allen as a pimp. Yet all of that was more than enough to allow the film to 'pass' as one of Woody's own. The point of my theory is that even as Allen, in the last four years, has become a consistently successful indie-comedy giant – the horn-rimmed Godzilla of anti-blockbuster programming – most of his films, like Midnight in Paris and To Rome With Love, have been fluffy and innocuous: cloyingly fanciful fables and 'sweet' crowd-pleasers. (Last year's Blue Jasmine was the radiant exception: It was a major Allen film – his most bracing since Match Point.) So when I say that Magic in the Moonlight is another of Allen's light-fingered fairy-tale confections, let me be clear that the film is a real cut above the throwaway fare he's been making. Its fun has a pinch of heft to it.
The movie is set in France and Germany in 1928, and is a puckishly philosophical comedy that is also Allen's corkscrew version of a Cary Grant-style romantic chase. The central character, Stanley Crawford (Colin Firth), is a world-famous illusionist who keeps his identity under wraps by performing, in quaintly racist costume, as Wei Ling Soo, master magician of the Orient. We first see him on stage in Berlin, where he makes an elephant disappear and teleports himself from a sealed chamber to a nearby chair. All very delightful – but as soon as Stanley exits the stage and tears off his white-skinned bald cap and false fu manchu moustache, he's revealed to be a robustly sour British cad who treats everyone within earshot like an indentured servant and has nothing but contempt for the mass of humanity. That said, if you're going to make your hero into such a poison pill, it helps to have him played by Colin Firth, whose soft, debonair grin gives even this joyless crank a jaunty melancholy.
Stanley is such a devoted misanthrope that when he isn't performing, he moonlights as a professional debunker of fake mystics. A great magician himself, he's a die-hard rationalist who is cynically invested in the notion that all magic is hokum. In Stanley's jaded eyes, there is no spirit world, nothing that can't be explained. So when he learns of the existence of a woman named Sophie (Emma Stone), who is said to be a psychic without peer, the challenge is set: Stanley must watch her perform in order to unmask her trickery. Surely she will prove a fake! Who is out to bilk her rich clients! Stanley's very worldview depends on it.
Illusions and delusions
But then he meets her on the French Riviera, and from everything he and the audience can see, she's either the most extraordinary charlatan ever... or the real thing. Stone, with luscious alabaster skin and startlingly round, large blue eyes, holds her delicate hands aloft, right in front of her head, as if she were trying to catch the cosmic vibrations emanating from within. As Sophie gazes at assorted people, including Stanley, and tells them things about themselves that no one but they could know, Stone makes each revelation seem truly spontaneous, and the gentle gravity of her acting casts a spell.
So does Allen's filmmaking. Magic in the Moonlight pings off the audience's desire to witness the uncanny, and it's not just our desire – it's Woody Allen's. The possibility of magic opens the door to the acceptance of the supernatural, the otherworldly and even the divine: all the things that Allen, the secular Jewish intellectual who deflates everything with wisecracks, generally stands against. Is he now saying that those things could be real? Or are they just comforting illusions? Or are they, in fact, illusions so grand and intoxicating and human and necessary that they end up creating their own reality? Even Stanley, as it turns out, is forced to acknowledge that the world may be a more irrational place than he could have admitted. Magic in the Moonlight generates a surprising tingle by disarming our scepticism and making us feel: yes, if only we could believe….
We want Magic in the Moonlight to be magical, to make our eyes go wide with enchantment, and for a while it does. But given it's a comedy about magicians both fake and possibly real, we also want it to be tricky, to have its way with us, as Allen did nearly 30 years ago in The Purple Rose of Cairo, his most perfect and beguiling bauble of a movie. And on that score, Magic in the Moonlight isn't quite tricky enough. It has one terrific twist, but the gamesmanship of reality and illusion doesn't build, as it did in Purple Rose. The film doesn't use the power of magic to seduce the rationalists in the audience into believing in the glory of what we can't see.
From the outset, Sophie is smitten with Stanley. And she pursues him, trying to pierce his armour of diffident disgruntlement, the same way that Katharine Hepburn did with Cary Grant in Bringing Up Baby. The movie features a great deal of babble about love and romance, and about how they're the 'real' magic: the irrational part of life that makes everything else worthwhile. But all that talk – a replay of what Woody's movies have been saying since the famous last words of Annie Hall – isn't, by now, very magical, or even romantic. The love story of Sophie and Stanley ends up seeming like a kind of conceit, and while Stone is wonderful in the early scenes, instead of developing as a character, her Sophie seems, ironically, to have fewer layers the more that she's revealed. Magic in the Moonlight is Allen's most gratifyingly airy concoction in a while, but it's also a comedy that insists, in the end, on making an overly rational case for the power of the irrational.

I reset my phone completely and it sent pictures again. But eventually the problem persisted.
3. Re: can't send picture in a text messagetuvo Jan 6, 2012 12:44 PM (in response to tuvo)
Reset a second time and it does not send pictures still. I am calling support to see if i have some sort of block on it.
4. Re: can't send picture in a text messagealee001 Feb 9, 2012 12:48 PM (in response to tuvo)
To send pictures, you have to have MMS enabled on your phone contract. My guess is that you perhaps only selected SMS? To be honest, I would have assumed SMS/MMS was bundled together...but Big Red's got to make a buck.
Also, ensure that you are getting a data connection. If you only see bars and a 1x, then you're not going to be able to send photos via text message. You can only send them if you have bars and a 3G. Activating Wifi doesn't help because Verizon (unlike T-mobile) doesn't offer VOIP services.
Honestly...if it weren't for the fact that Verizon is our corporate provider, I wouldn't even use them for mobile service. I like how they use the community channels to just let us all vent at each other. It's brilliant - this way, they don't even have to provide customer support...we do their job for them.

Evansville struggling with water main breaks
Utility crews faced at least a dozen more water main breaks in Evansville over the weekend as they worked to fix water system troubles around the city.
Water department superintendent Mike Duckworth says most of the breaks were repaired Sunday, although one kept part of U.S. 41 on the city's north side closed into Monday.
The Evansville Courier & Press reports the city also is also advising customers in many areas to boil their water before using it for drinking or cooking.
Officials blame nearly 30 main breaks on last week's subzero temperatures and many pipes predating the 1930s.
Duckworth says water levels remained good but that the breaks must be fixed in order to fill the system to capacity.

Jones remains upbeat
By Chris Stanton
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Dave Jones insists Cardiff will bounce back from their first defeat of the season at Preston.
Cardiff City manager Dave Jones insists his side will bounce back from their first defeat of the season at Preston North End.
The Championship's pace-setters went down 2-1 at Deepdale, in a match that finished 10-a-side after the dismissals of Glenn Loovens, for the visitors, and David Nugent, for the hosts.
After the first half sendings off, North End broke the deadlock through substitute Patrick Agyemang. Michael Chopra then equalised for The Bluebirds, but Danny Pugh's header shortly after the hour decided the match.
"We will get over this loss. It's how you respond to it that matters, how you keep fighting, learning and pushing on," said Jones.
"There are going to be days when it just doesn't go for you."
Jones was disappointed by the 10th minute dismissal of Loovens following a 'shoulder to shoulder' challenge on Nugent just outside the box.
"Glenn has been punished for being stronger than their boy. It was shoulder to shoulder. Anywhere else on the pitch, as the ref said, he wouldn't have given a caution," added Jones.
"There were two sendings-off that I didn't think should have really happened. We are going to make mistakes. We are a young side. So long as we bounce back from it and learn from it, we can push on".
Jones's opposite number Paul Simpson was 'chuffed' by his side's first home win of the campaign.
"I'm very satisfied, relieved, chuffed for everybody," Simpson said.
"The fans have waited for it. We have all been waiting for our first home win."
On the introduction of Agyemang, Simpson noted: "They are gambles that sometimes work for you. I felt we needed to do something.
"Patrick has got pace, strength and power. On his day, he is frightening."
Simpson admitted Nugent paid the price for an unnecessary booking.
"You know referees are going to try to do something to even it up. From where I was, it looked as if he won the ball. I may be totally wrong," added Simpson.
"His first booking was Nugent's fourth of the season. It was a bit of stupidity. These are things that 'Nuge' has to learn. He has to get it out of his game. But today was the hardest he has worked for us."

Folsom is a village in Union County, New Mexico, United States. The population was 56 at the 2010 census, down from 75 in 2000. The town was named after Frances Folsom, the fiancee of President Grover Cleveland.
Folsom is the type site for the Folsom Tradition, a Paleo-Indian cultural sequence dating to between 9000 BC and 8000 BC. The Folsom site was excavated in 1926 and found to have been a marsh-side kill site or camp where 23 bison had been killed using distinctive tools, known as Folsom points.
In the first half of the 19th century, the region was a hunting ground for Comanche, Ute, and Jicarilla Apache Indians. The first White settlement near Folsom was Madison, settled in 1864 and named for its founder, Madison Emery. In 1877 a post office was established. Madison became a ghost town in 1888 when the Colorado and Southern Railroad was completed and Folsom was established nearby on the railroad line. The train was held up three times near Folsom by Black Jack Ketchum and his gang. The final robbery in 1899 led to the capture and hanging of Ketchum.
Folsom prospered in the early years with the largest stockyards west of Fort Worth. Homesteaders moved in and attempted to farm and the town reached a peak population of nearly 1,000. However, the area proved unsuitable for farming because of drought and large ranches soon replaced the small farms. The town suffered a blow from which it never recovered on August 27, 1908 when a massive rainstorm caused a devastating flood which nearly destroyed the town and killed 18 people. (Flash flooding from the same storm also uncovered the bison bones that George McJunkin found)
A high school operated briefly in Folsom. Its only graduates were three students in 1931. In 1966 the elementary school at Folsom closed and the students transferred to the school in Des Moines eight miles away. Folsom has a post office.

Reviews for Fresh Peach Pie
Average Rating
"This went together quickly with tasty results. I used orange jello and flavorful white peaches. The color of the jello helped the presentation."
"We made 4 pies and they all went. Everone loved them.But we had one problem, the jell-o would not set right on all 4 pies.why? Thank-you for any help you can give us."
"We LOVED this pie. I made a few adjustments; I used mango gelatin instead of orange or peach and only poured 3/4 of it over the fresh fruit. I also piled the fruit in very high in the crust. A big hit!"
"Used the peach jello and my family including 3 grandsons really enjoyed---will definitely make again----delicious"

Only sissies use their legs on rope climbs.
"Don't use your legs. That's the sissy way."
Rich Froning Sr. said that when his son was little, and it was a piece of advice that might have cost Junior three consecutive CrossFit Games victories.
In 2010, Froning famously finished second at the Games after a poor showing on the rope climbs in the final event. Froning hadn't climbed a rope since second grade and followed his father's recommendation: he climbed without using his legs.
Froning, of course, learned how to use his legs shortly after and went on to dominate the next two editions of the Games.
Friday night's final event was 27 thrusters (95/65 lb.) and four rope climbs, 21 thrusters and three rope climbs, 15 thrusters and two rope climbs, and nine thrusters and one rope climb.
Most important of all, athletes weren't able to climb the rope the sissy way. The challenge was suitably named Legless and forced athletes to go Princess Bride on the rope.
Few women made it to the final rope climb, and several found the proverbial brick wall much earlier in the event on a preceding round of rope climbs.
Among the most exciting heats was the third, which saw Emily Carothers catch Elisabeth Akinwale and Jenn Jones. Behind her was Valerie Voboril. The two women were the closest to finishing the event under the 10-minute time cap of any females to that point. To roars from the crowd, both attempted the final rope climb after finishing nine thrusters with mere seconds left on the clock. Carothers and Voboril recorded the same time: 10:02—the time cap, plus a second each for one missed rope climb and one run to the finish mat.
"I have 18 years of a gymnastics background, and in gymnastic legs are never allowed," Carothers said.
Still, she wasn't exactly thrilled by the movement.
"My upper body already felt pretty beat up after the morning event, so I was pretty apprehensive about how well my upper body was going to function," Carothers said.
As expected, the final women's heat was the nail-biter.
Briggs opted for the Princess Bride approach, looking like she was walking through the air and proving her firefighter career has served her well. But just when it looked like the Brit had a lock on first, she kept failing on the final ascent of the third set of rope climbs.
That opened the door for Christy Phillips, the first woman to the set of two rope climbs. She was joined in short order by Alessandra Pichelli, who employed a massive kip on the rope.
"When you kip you can keep your arms straight," she said. "I knew if I could keep my arms from blowing up, then I wouldn't fail a rep, and I could catch up."
Legless rope climbs have been part of her training, Pichelli noted.
"I do them a lot. It paid off," she said.
Pichelli arrived first to the final rope climb to finish the event in 9:33.7. Phillips followed suit shortly afterward in 9:41.9. They were the only two women to finish the workout under the 10-minute time cap.
"I didn't expect to win, but I did," Pichelli said.
The final rope climb made waste of men, as many athletes made it more than halfway up only to have their arms betray them.
Gary Helmick posted the best time of the first three heats at 6:08.1 before being bested by Josh Bridges, who finished in 6:07.3. Bridges, the event winner, made the thrusters and rope climbs look like a warm-up. The Navy SEAL knocked out unbroken thrusters and quickly ascended the rope with some rest to chalk up and take a few breaths.
Bridges said he knew the time to beat going into the event and, "of course," knew he could do better, watching the clock at the end and knowing what he had to accomplish. On his agenda was sufficiently resting before ascents.
"I was saving my arms so I knew I could get it and do the workout unbroken," Bridges said.
Indeed, reaching failure cost many athletes dearly, including Matt Chan, who repeatedly failed on the final ascent and did not complete all reps under the cap. Last year's third-place finisher took 34th on the event.
The final men's heat was performed before a standing crowd and saw two-time Games champion Froning pull into the lead. But several athletes were hunting him down, including Marcus Hendren and Jordan Troyan. As Troyan and Froning stood before the final rope climb, they watched each other, almost daring the other to go first. Seemingly out of nowhere, Hendren hauled himself up the rope and passed Troyan to finish but a 10th of a second ahead.
"I didn't want to fail," Hendren said. "I knew I couldn't do 15 (thrusters) unbroken like Bridges."
He added: "I just tried to keep my five-breath metronome."
Froning finished eighth overall, and the top five times all came from the previous heats.
1. Alessandra Pichelli (9:33.7)

SWINDON fight fans could be in line for a treat this summer as promoter Keith Mayo is planning to put on three title fights for his June show at the Oasis Leisure Centre.
Penhill's Kelvin Young is set to be the headline act once again as he makes the first defence of his IBO super-middleweight intercontinental title on June 7.
The 26-year-old, who is set to go into sparring with WBA and IBF super-middlweight king Carl Froch ahead of his big British showdown with Swindon-trained George Groves next month, won the vacant title in December when he out-pointed Bulgarian Alexey Ribchev.
Young was back in action last month with a comfortable points win over Tomas Kugler in an eight-round non-title bout, but now his manager Mayo is keen to get a title defence for his Young Gun.
Newly-crowned Southern Area cruiserweight champion Lawrence Bennett is also being lined-up for a defence of the belt he won last week.
The 31-year-old claimed a 98-94 victory over Margate's Jack Morris in Southwark last Thursday and Mayo is looking to find a suitable opponent for his new champion.
The Alicante-based light-heavyweight Ricky Pow is also being lined up for a crack at a title with Mayo looking to land the 27-year-old a crack at the IBO Latino belt.
"If everything goes to plan it should be a cracking show," Mayo said. "The plan is get a title defence for Kelvin.
"I'm also hoping to get Ricky a shot at the IBO Latino belt.
"At the moment we are looking to get Lawrence on that show to defend his title, but if we get a good offer elsewhere we may look at that."
Meanwhile, Ryan Martin may finally get his chance to face Kevin McCauley when he makes his second outing in the paid ranks.
The former Walcot amateur was due to face the 34-year-old when he made his debut at the Oasis last month.
However, the former England international took on veteran Jason Nesbitt after McCauley double booked himself and the 20-year-old took a 60-55 points decision in the six two-minute rounds contest.
Now the pair are set to clash on Mayo's show at the GL1 Leisure Centre in Gloucester on April 26.
Swindon-based cruiserweight Tariq Quaddus continues his comeback from a five-and-a-half year break from the sport when he takes on Jody Meikle in Gloucester.
The 23-year-old, originally from Peterborough, put in a fine display last month to claim a 40-36 win over Christian Gomez.
And with some sparring against Froch in the pipeline, Quaddus will be given some vital rounds in the bank against the One Man Riot, who took former British super-middleweight champion Tony Dodson the distance over four rounds in February.

Tigger has become expensive to follow and isn't improving, though would have finished ahead of Our Double Diamond had that one not took a heavy fall at Newton Abbot last time. Free Falling has gone up 9lb since his surprise win at Fontwell but should still confirm that form with third Flowerbud. Coolagad Wonder also won at Fontwell in August but was tailed off at Hereford next time so a tentative vote goes to MAN OF LEISURE. Nerys Dutfield's charge had placed form in better company last season and can shrug off a six-month absence.

Just in: The Motorola Droid. I'm just at the first impression stage but I like what I see (this may be the droid we've been looking for).
The obvious comparison is with, of course, the T-Mobile G1 manufactured by HTC. Motorola's late entry into the Android, AKA "Googlephone", market has allowed it to produce a more powerful and sophisticated product.
A quick aside: T-Mobile? Are you paying attention? On the "Learn" page for the G1 you're still asking users to "Vote for the 2008 Engadget Awards!" You might want to fix that.
The Droid hardware is very good. The whole package is sleek, has a pleasant heft and a slide-out keyboard so there are no annoying creaky hinges like there were with the HTC G1 I reviewed some time ago. The keyboard also has a joystick-like pad that works far better as a navigation device than the trackball on the G1, but the size of the keys is a little tight for my large, banana-like fingers (I insert capitals with wild abandon).
Other Droid specifications: up to 450 hours standby and a 420 minute talk time, a 854×480 pixel 3.7-inch touch-sensitive display and 16 million color depth, 512MB ROM and 256MB RAM, and a microSD and microSDHC expansion slot.
The operating system on the Droid is Google's Android 2, otherwise called the "Éclair" release (why do developers use such un-sexy names for products? Consider the Ubuntu releases which include "Hardy Heron", "Intrepid Ibex", "Jaunty Jackalope" and "Karmic Koala" … just downright lame. And "Éclair"? Pah!).
Connections include a USB2.0 jack, a 3.5mm audio jack, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR and Wi-Fi. The Droid also includes accelerometers and GPS as well as proximity and ambient light sensors.
The 5 megapixel camera gets somewhat better results than that of the G1's 3.2 megapixel camera (the Droid also has a flash), but even so, the picture quality and camera response are nothing to write home about. Or even post pictures about. Oh, and it also shoots video.
The overall performance of the Droid seems much better than the G1, some of which appears to be improvements in Android 2 (the G1 is on version 1.5). The Droid has a 550 MHz Arm Cortex A8 processor while the G1 uses a 528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7201A -- not a lot of cycles between them, so there may be some architectural benefits to the Cortex that improves performance (any processor nerds care to comment?).
An odd design decision with the Android 2 implementation on the Droid is that for some modes, such as when you are viewing the home screen, the display doesn't automatically rotate; you have to open the keyboard for this to happen. This has caused a certain amount of irritation amongst the early adopters.
There are also some system bugs: At one point I found the display stuck in landscape mode. I had to restart it to get it to toggle between landscape and portrait again. It also appears that the ambient light sensing doesn't work quite right; I can take the Droid from a dark room into daylight and the screen brightness won't change.
The worst bug, and one that I have now seen twice, is the Droid ignoring me when there was an incoming call. This is disastrous as no matter what I did the phone would do nothing but ring until it went to voice mail; then normal service was resumed.
These bugs are surprising in such an otherwise polished device. I suspect they will be quickly fixed, but it does make you wonder whether Motorola's QA guys are doing their jobs well.
Another early annoyance was that every hour or so the Droid would say "Droid" in a robotic voice. For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to make that stop, but I either unwittingly hit some setting or it just got bored and ran out of small talk. Whichever, the "Droiding" has ceased.
So, do we have an enterprise device here? Not really. There are no remote management features and no enterprise security features. I have also read that connecting a Droid to a Microsoft Exchange server is problematic (I couldn't test this as I, thankfully, don't run Exchange).
But does the Verizon Motorola Droid live up to the hype? I think so. The Droid is powerful, slick and, given its features and $199 price, it will be a compelling package that really does rival the Apple iPhone.
There is one thing that may well put users off: Verizon's recent decision to double its Early Termination Fee (ETF) for all smartphones to $350 (prorated at $10 per elapsed month). Yep, you read that right: Double!
This is crazy given the state of the economy and could really take the gloss off the release of the Droid unless, of course, Verizon believes that enthusiasm for the device will make the ETF unimportant. I think not. Moreover, I think it makes Verizon look even more Big Brother-ish and rapacious than it is considered to be.
Even so, the Motorola Droid is a solid product (providing Motorola fixes those bugs) and will do a lot to reinforce Android as a mobile computing platform. I give the Verizon Motorola Droid a rating of 4.5 out of 5.

Velocix today announced that it will provide free content delivery network services as part of a new offering called Velocix Accelerator.
The free CDN service includes a 500GB per month delivery allowance for global file download, video progressive streaming and website acceleration services. Companies requiring more than 500 GB per month or Flash Streaming or Hybrid-P2P download can opt for Velocix Accelerator Pro for $1,000 a month. Both Velocix Accelerator and Velocix Accelerator Pro are currently in closed Beta.
The free CDN service is designed to attract cost-conscious start-ups, who would then be candidates for the paid Accelerator Pro service as they grow or move into Flash delivery. But the launch of a free CDN – even as a funnel for paid services – will likely prompt fresh concern about pricing wars and profit margins in the increasingly crowded CDN market. The Velocix Accelerator launch follows the news that Voxel is offering an "ultra low cost" CDN service leveraging Amazon's utility computing platformS3, which is increasingly being used by video providers as a makeshift CDN.
"As visitor numbers expand and our Velocix Accelerator customers see an increasing demand for their on-line digital services, Velocix Accelerator Pro provides them with a simple upgrade that includes more advanced delivery services for their growing and more sophisticated digital asset delivery requirements," said John Dillon, Chief Marketing Officer of Velocix.
Velocix Accelerator Pro service comes with a 1.5TB monthly traffic allowance and includes full access to the Velocix Asset Control Portal for advanced digital asset management and reporting.
Early beta users of Accelerator include digital music label Craze Records. "Velocix is helping us deliver our music content, through AMP and other digital outlets, to audiences around the world," said Uri Levanon, Head of Technology at Craze Productions. "With Velocix Accelerator, we've taken a big step forward a lot sooner than we had planned, extending the reach of our high quality services from our home territories into international markets."
"Our new Velocix Accelerator and Velocix Accelerator Pro services provide stepping stones for start-ups, entrepreneurs and emerging new media businesses that introduce them to the benefits and advantages of high performance global digital delivery services," said Phill Robinson, CEO at Velocix. "These entry level services remove barriers and put these emerging companies on an even footing with their larger and more established competitors."
Velocix, which is based in Cambridge, England, specializes in delivering large digital media files such as video, software and games. The company says the hybrid-P2P approach, which combines traditional caching with peer-to-peer delivery, offers better scalability than traditional CDNs, as well as "compelling delivery costs and economics."

PROTESTORS in Weymouth are set to turn out in force against a controversial welfare reform.
They will gather at the Weymouth and Portland Borough Council Offices at North Quay to voice their opposition against the bedroom tax on March 15.
The reform, also known as the under-occupancy penalty, is due to come into effect in April and will cut the amount of benefit people are entitled to if they are considered to have a spare bedroom in their council or housing association home.
Organiser Michael McManus said the tax will affect many people in Weymouth.
He said: "I don't think people realise how many types of families this will affect.
"The disgusting thing about it is that it will affect foster carers.
"These are people who are just trying to help, it's disgraceful."
A Facebook group set up by Mr McManus has attracted almost 300 supporters in the first two days of being online.
The protest is part of larger marches in cities across the country against the tax, which are taking place on March 30.
The protest will be held from 12pm to 2pm on March 15.
Mr McManus said: "It is as much about raising awareness that this tax will be imposed as protesting against it.
"A lot of people don't realise this is going on, so it's important to spread the word."
He added that he hopes to see up to 200 people at the protest.
He said: "I would like it to be as many people as possible, though the emphasis of course is that it is going to be a peaceful protest where we are voicing our concerns.
"Some people have contacted me saying they are very worried about how they are going to cope financially after this comes in. It's very upsetting."
Mr McManus said he is not affected personally by the policy, but many of his immediate family and friends will be.
"They are targeting vulnerable people, those who are disabled or recovering from illness.
"Some people find it difficult to stand up for themselves, so it's important that we all speak out about it."
For more information about the protest, search Dorset Bedroom Tax on Facebook.
Policy part of welfare reform
THE bedroom tax policy is part of the Welfare Reform Act 2012.
It will restrict housing benefit to allow for one bedroom for each person or couple, with the exception of children under 16, who are expected to share, and where there is an overnight carer for a disabled person, who will be allowed an extra bedroom.
The change has been highly criticised by the Labour Party, but the Coalition Government believes the policy will create a fairer approach to benefits.
According to the National Housing Federation, the cut to housing benefit will be 14 per cent for one extra bedroom and 25 per cent for two or more extra bedrooms, and those affected are expected to lose around £15 per week.
In Weymouth, a two-bedroom Synergy property is rented at an average of £87.59 per week, with a three-bedroom averaging £94.49 per week.

From September 2016 a new £5 note will be introduced in the UK.
Ending 320 years of paper money, the new £5 will be unusual in that it will be the UK's first plastic bank note. It will feature Winston Churchill, and will be followed by Jane Austen £10 in 2017, and a J M W Turner £20 by 2020.
It is the beginning of the Bank of England's switch to plastic bank notes. Officially called polymer notes, plastic bank notes are manufactured from a transparent plastic film and then coated with a layer of ink. The polymer notes produced by this process are considered to be cleaner, more durable and (vitally) more secure than paper notes. The material and the process allows for the inclusion of clear "windows" to protect against counterfeits. The bank notes are made in such a way that makes them harder to copy and counterfeit.
Polymer bank notes are also more environmentally friendly than their paper counterparts because they last up to two and a half time longer. The Bank of England claims that this longer lasting durability will offset the higher production costs of the manufacturing process, and overall save an estimated £100m. Regarding durability, in laboratory tests, the polymer banknotes only begin to shrink and melt at 120C. As such, they are expected to survive a washing machine spin cycle when left in a trouser pocket– although they could possibly be damaged by a hot iron.
Despite those advantages, introducing the new notes will not come cheap. With the introduction of any new bank note, there are inevitable production and related costs. With the new Churchill £5, the new process means that those costs alone will be much higher. In addition, the new polymer notes will land shops, banks and other businesses with an estimated bill of £236m. ATM's, vending machines and similar will all need to be recalibrated to take the new polymer notes, which are actually 15% smaller than the current £5 notes. Some of those machine and systems will need to be replaced entirely.
The key thing is that the new polymer notes will help counter fraud, and be more durable. It is a very good way for the Bank of England to carry out it duty and role in safeguard the British currency. Fraud and counterfeit money costs UK economy many millions every year – the new plastic notes will help.
The Bank of England regularly takes thousands of counterfeit (or old) notes out of circulation annually. Surprisingly, the venerable £1 coin is the most heavily counterfeited, with an estimated 30-40 fakes in circulation in 2010. According to the Bank of England, 243,000 counterfeit banknotes were taken out of circulation in the UK in 2015 with a face value (as counterfeits, the notes are valueless) of £5m. This is a very small proportion of the genuine banknotes in circulation – which averages at over 3.3 billion notes with a face value exceeding £65 billion. £20 were the notes most copied in 2015, with 168,000 taken out of circulation.
The Bank of England and the Royal Mint both work with agencies such as the Serious Organised Crime Agency and the National Crime Agency to combat such counterfeiting, which costs the UK economy millions every year. The introduction of the new polymer notes over the next few years should go a long way in combating such activities, as they are much harder to counterfeit.
Amidst an increasingly digital world, the new polymer notes finally herald the end of the humble, venerable paper banknote.

MORE than 100 empty properties in Pendle could be made into homes again thanks to a £1.33million Government windfall.
Councillors at the executive meeting on Thursday will discuss the new loan scheme and make a decision on the recommendation to adopt it for Pendle. Council leader Joe Cooney said: "The money has to be targeted to tackle areas badly affected by empty houses.
"Once these homes are brought up to scratch, they'll provide decent homes for well over 300 people."
The areas in Pendle worst affected by empty homes which could be tackled by the new scheme are the Railway Street area of Brierfield, Waterside in Colne's south valley and the Bradley and Southfield areas of Nelson.
Paul Lloyd, from the housing standards team at the council, said: "If agreed, we can offer loans from February 1 to anyone who owns a property in one of these four areas. So long as it has been empty for more than six months." Call 01282 661029 for details.

Last week, the SaddleBrooke homeowner's association No. 1 joined other local businesses in pledging their support to those serving in the National Guard and Reserve by signing a Statement of Support Certificate.
Bruce Hamilton, a representative for the Employer Support of The Guard and Reserve (ESGR), was present to speak a little bit about what they do.
Currently, ESGR has 4,500 volunteers across the U.S. with 59 volunteers in Arizona.
The main goal of ESGR is to support employers and employees who are deployed while serving in the National Guard and Reserve by briefing their respective bosses. ESGR also takes bosses on outings so they can see what exactly their employee does. It also provides legal assistance when an employer discriminates an employee for serving or being deployed for the Guard or Reserve.

z/OS Communications Server V1R8 SNA Network Implementation Guide
Technote (troubleshooting)
Publication update for z/OS Communications Server V1R8 SNA Network Implementation Guide
Resolving the problem
In Chapter 6. Using Enterprise Extender, in the "Tuning the EE network" section, add a new section after "Enterprise Extender LDLC keep-alive reduction called "Enterprise Extender Improved Packet Loss Tolerance".
Enterprise Extender Improved Packet Loss Tolerance
While RTP pipes generally perform very well over Enterprise Extender under ideal network conditions, the overall performance of RTP pipes may be significantly impacted when packet loss is occurring. The Enterprise Extender improved packet loss tolerance function is designed to improve the performance of RTP pipes while running in non-ideal network conditions. This function is enabled by coding the HPRCLKRT start option to the ADAPTIVE mode.
Coding ADAPTIVE for the HPRCLKRT setting allows the HPR clock to operate in adaptive mode. Running the HPR clock in adaptive mode allows the clock to toggle between standard and high modes of operation when servicing RTP pipes which are experiencing packet loss. When packet loss occurs, the clock speed adapts to run in high mode. This causes more frequent scheduling of the RTP pipes which are experiencing packet loss, allowing the RTP pipes to recover quicker. There may be some CPU overhead for running the HPR clock in high mode. When packet loss is no longer occurring, the clock returns to the standard mode.
The adaptive mode is designed to increase the overall performance of RTP pipes when packet loss is occurring. However, RTP performance and CPU overhead are system dependent and may vary accordingly.
- This mode is only meaningful in Enterprise Extender configurations which have a defined capacity of 1G (gigabit) or higher access speeds.
- This mode is not recommended for uniprocessor configurations or in configurations which are CPU bound.

Katy Perry has a reason to "Roar" these days. The singer worked hard to become a household name, after overcoming a rough career start.

Performing under the Hudson name, she released a self-titled gospel rock album in 2001, but it turned up unsuccessful.

Petitioner, Kathryn B. Zigmont, sought to purchase pension retirement credit for a period of time during which she was on an approved maternity leave of absence without pay. The Board of Trustees of the Teachers' Pension and Annuity Fund (TPAF) rejected her request. The Appellate Division reversed the determination of the board. We granted the petition for certification of the Attorney General on behalf of TPAF and now reverse and remand.
The essential facts in this controversy are amply set forth in the opinion of the Appellate Division, which is reported at 182 N.J.Super. 50. Mrs. Zigmont was continuously employed as a school teacher by the Union County Regional High School District from 1966 until her retirement. She was a member of the Teachers' Pension and Annuity Fund since 1965. With official approval, Mrs. Zigmont left on a maternity leave of absence on January 1, 1975 and returned to service September 1, 1976. At the end of June 1979, nearly three years after her return to service, Mrs. Zigmont requested permission to purchase pension credit for the leave.
In December of 1974, just prior to taking her maternity leave, Mrs. Zigmont inquired of the school district payroll clerk whether she could purchase the pension credit attributable to such a leave of absence. The payroll clerk, who apparently had assumed responsibilities for the school district relating to the Teachers Pension and Annuity Fund, gave Mrs. Zigmont erroneous information by advising her that such credit could not be purchased.
In April 1979, approximately two and one-half years after her return to active teaching, Mrs. Zigmont learned at a teachers' meeting that pension service credit for time absent due to maternity leave could be purchased for pension credit. She was so informed by the speaker at the meeting who was a representative of the Division of Pensions. After the meeting, Mrs. Zigmont discussed her situation with the speaker, who suggested
Mrs. Zigmont was the sole witness at the hearing (the payroll clerk was deceased), and she testified to the foregoing facts. She also was permitted to introduce a letter from the school district's secretary, who wrote that he had personally witnessed the payroll clerk say that maternity leave could not be bought back for pension credit, and he "sheepishly admit[ted]" that until Mrs. Zigmont raised the issue, he thought the payroll clerk was correct. As noted in the decision of the Appellate Division, the Administrative Law Judge recommended that Mrs. Zigmont's request to purchase pension credit should be denied and the board of trustees of TPAF affirmed their initial decision to deny Mrs. Zigmont's request to purchase pension credit.
In reversing the board's determination, the Appellate Division found that the one-year period contained in N.J.S.A. 18A:66-8 within which a member must purchase pension credit for an authorized leave of absence without pay is "one which lies within the power of the Board to relax in appropriate circumstances where there are overriding considerations of equity." Id. at 55, 57.
The particular statutory provision that governs Mrs. Zigmont's entitlement in this case, N.J.S.A. 18A:66-8, presents interpretive difficulties. In pertinent part, it states that
There is no need to delve more deeply into this question. The Attorney General does not contest the position that the one-year limitation of N.J.S.A. 18A:66-8 is subject to relaxation or waiver under these circumstances. Absent a contrary legislative intent or statutory language that inescapably dictates the opposite conclusion, we perceive no sound reason for not accepting this position for purposes of this appeal.
We nonetheless disagree with the Appellate Division's final disposition. The entitlement to such waiver or relaxation should not be determined by a court based upon its application of general "considerations of equity." Rather, such a question
It is not clear that the board of trustees exercised such discretion in this case. We therefore deem it appropriate that this matter be remanded to the board to ascertain whether petitioner is entitled to a waiver of the one-year period of limitations in seeking to purchase maternity leave credit under N.J.S.A. 18A:66-8. In making this determination, the board should consider the fiscal effect upon the fund and the relative financial consequences to the fund and to the petitioner, as well as the practices that prevail in other school districts and the effect of any decision upon other members of TPAF. In the final analysis, these factors properly are to be assessed by the board itself. Dougherty. In this particular case, because no standards governing extensions under N.J.S.A. 18A:66-8 have previously been considered or applied, the board may give weight to the equitable factors considered relevant by the Appellate Division. See 182 N.J. Super. at 57. In addition, and aside from the determination reached by the board in this case, it is entirely appropriate for the Division of Pensions to promulgate rules and regulations of general applicability providing standards for waiver or relaxation to govern such cases in the future. See Texter v. Human Serv. Dep't., 88 N.J. 376 (1982).
Accordingly, the judgment below is reversed and the matter remanded for proceedings consistent with this opinion. Jurisdiction is not retained. No costs.
For reversal and remandment — Chief Justice WILENTZ and Justices CLIFFORD, SCHREIBER, HANDLER, POLLOCK and O'HERN — 6.
For affirmance — None.

Immigrant rights advocates and attorneys are urging illegal immigrants to be aware of scammers promising to help them apply for President Barack Obama's new deferred deportation program.
Details about the policy, including the application process, have not been released. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced on its website this week that it could take as long as 60 days before applications will be accepted.
Immigrant rights advocates urged people not to rush and pay money to service providers who may not have the qualifications or information to assist them.
"The most important message that we're conveying to folks at the moment is: Do not apply for this yet," said Christian Ramirez, director of the Southern Border Communities Coalition, an immigrant rights organization. "The process is still not clear, and USCIS is not accepting applications until mid-August. We're asking folks to be cautious of anyone that may be promising to help them through this process now."
Last week, Obama announced that his administration would not deport illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria. Those targeted for the program are generally young people who were brought into the country illegally as children and who do not have a serious criminal record.
The requirements for individuals include that they:
- Are 30 years old or younger;
- Arrived in the United States before age 16;
- Have lived in the United States continuously for the past 5 years;
- Graduated from a U.S. high school, are attending school or have served in the military;
- Have not been convicted of a felony, significant misdemeanor or multiple misdemeanors.
The Obama administration estimates that about 800,000 people may qualify for the program.
Those who qualify will be exempted from deportation for two years and may reapply after two years. They also can apply for a work permit that will be good for two years, with no limits on how many times it can be renewed.
The program does not give illegal immigrants a path to citizenship or legal status, administration officials said.
Obama said Monday that the new policy is only a stopgap measure, and he urged Congress to pass immigration reform legislation for a permanent solution.
Matt Holt, an immigration attorney in San Diego and a spokesman for the American Immigration Lawyers Association, said those eager to take advantage of the new program are especially susceptible to fraud.
"Be careful. Do not endanger your chance to qualify for this action," Holt said. "Make sure to contact a genuine immigration lawyer who can help ensure your application has the best chance of being filed properly and for you to benefit from this program."
In the meantime, advocates and attorneys said individuals should begin gathering documents that demonstrate their eligibility for the program. But gathering those documents may prove difficult for some people, many of whom may have left their countries of origin without vital documents, such as birth certificates or ID cards.
"Proof of arrival before age 16 will be a threshold issue," Holt said. "I think the school documents, medical records, immunization records, photographs, employment verification and tax documents will be most helpful in satisfying the physical presence requirement."

The men died during the First World War while being held as Prisoners of War (POWs) in a camp nearby. They were buried in a local cemetery which, after the war, the CWGC marked with a Cross of Sacrifice and headstones. During the 1960s the cemetery deteriorated and the CWGC, concerned about the future of the site, took the decision to commemorate the men at Malbork Commonwealth War Cemetery. With access to the cemetery now possible, and with the full support of the Commune of Lidzbark Warminski, the CWGC will commence work in March to rebuild the cemetery in Lidzbark.

Production Capitalism vs Financial Capitalism - Symbiosis and Parasitism. An Evolutionary Perspective and Bibliography
This working paper presents a note and an extensive bibliography on the relationship between production capitalism and financial capitalism. The document was produced for a conference held at Leangkollen outside Oslo on September 3-4, 1998. The background for the conference was the Asian financial crisis that started in July 1997. The massive Russian financial crisis had started a few days before the conference, on August 17, 1998, and the Russian participant, Prof. Vladimir Avtonomov, brought fresh news from these dramatic events. The conference was organized by Erik Reinert, who at the time worked for Norsk Investorforum, an organisation which at the time organized Norwegian production capitalists and later helped Reinert launch The Other Canon Foundation. Reinert was at the time also affiliated with SUM, Centre for Development and the Environment at the University of Oslo. The global financial crisis that started in 2008 . ten years after this conference . vindi- cates the perspectives presented here, and prompted the wish to make the note and the very extensive bibliography of relevant, but mostly forgotten, litterature on the relationship between the production sector and the monetary sector of the economy. The conference programme is found at the end of the document.
