Licensing Executives Society Holds Meeting in PasadenaMusic, Video Games, Technology, Asian Licensing, and Patents to be Discussed (February 13, 2006)
More than 300 top executives involved in intellectual property (IP) licensing will discuss the latest trends and issues at the Licensing Executives Society (LES) Winter Meeting, February 22-24, 2006, at the Ritz- Carlton Huntington Hotel in Pasadena.
Five key sessions are highlighted below. For press registration and to arrange interviews with presenters, contact Al Rickard at 703-402-9713 or [email protected].
Entertainment Industry IP: The Music Industry Overview & a Look Forward
Thursday, February 23, 9:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.
Speaker: Gerald B. Weiner, Partner, Probstein and Weiner, Attorneys at Law
Session Background: The music industry has been a battleground for years for intellectual property disputes. Get an update on where we are today and what the future holds. Gerald B. Weiner is a former professional musician and member of the American Federation of Musicians. He serves as a guest lecturer on music production agreements at the University of California at Los Angeles and is a member of the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences, Association of Independent Music Publishers and the California Copyright Conference. Mr. Weiner's legal practice is solely and exclusively devoted to the music and entertainment industries. Clients include songwriters, record companies, publishing companies, musicians, vocalists, record producers and those associated with the music and entertainment industries.
Video Gaming Industry: Content Morality in Licensing
Thursday, February 23, 10:00 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.
Speaker: William Gross, Immediate Past President & CEO, GiveMeTalk!
Session Background: The content of some of today's video games goes over the edge of what many would consider decent and moral. Advertising in newspapers, magazine and on television frequently does the same. As the immediate past president of GiveMeTalk!, Bill Gross has wrestled with these content issues when licensing-in media and developing that media for video games which are then marketed largely to a young, impressionable demographic. He will discuss the business strategies and dilemmas facing the video game industry. Pharmaceutical companies also face similar content and licensing issues, and Gross will draw parallels between the two industries.
Perspectives on Licensing Deals in Asia
Thursday, February 23, 3:30 p.m. - 4:45 p.m.
Speakers: Larry W. Evans, Consultant ; Eun-Sub Jung, Managing Partner, AJU International Law Group; Akiko Futamura, Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Science & Technology / Business Development SC BioSciences USA, Inc.; and David Palella, President, BioScience Ventures, Inc.
Session Background: This session will discuss getting a deal in Asia, including the up-front groundwork and issues that will be faced during negotiations. It will also address cultural issues to be faced during negotiations and how they can be overcome.
The Role of Licensing in Building and Sustaining a Technology Leader
Thursday, February 23, 8:45 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.
Speaker: Louis M. Lupin, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, QUALCOMM
Session Background: Whats the most important part of technology development? If you said innovation and new inventions, youd only be half right. The other half is intellectual property licensing selling the rights to proprietary technology to make it available to more businesses and consumers. Licensing also supports further research and innovation. Louis M. Lupin is responsible for all aspects of the company's legal work, including the development of intellectual property rights, technology licensing and strategic alliances, as well as intellectual property litigation and dispute resolution. He represented the company in its 1994 patent infringement litigation with InterDigital Technology Corporation and joined QUALCOMM following the successful conclusion of that case.
Patent Reform Panel Discussion
Friday, February 24, 2006, 8:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Speakers: Steve Kunin, Oblon, Spivak, McClelland, Maier & Neustadt, P.C., formerly USPTO; Chuck Donohoe, former Chief Patent Counsel, Samsung Electronics Co.; and Peter Harter VP Public Affairs, Intellectual Ventures
Session Background: The high-tech and healthcare industries are on opposite sides of the issue when it comes to proposed reforms to the U.S. patent system. How will it affect IP licensing? The panel will review the proposed Patent Reform Act of 2005 and discuss its implications.
LES is a professional society comprised of over 6,000 members engaged in the transfer, use, development, manufacture and marketing of intellectual property. LES members includes a wide range of professionals, including business executives, lawyers, licensing consultants, engineers, academicians, scientists and government officials.

I'd like to discuss the innate potential of Fishmen. As a race, the Fishmen are said the be on average 10 times stronger than Humans. Now of course we know this is just the basal strength. We've seen that among humans in the OP world, the variation in strength is so drastic it's almost inconceivable.
So far though, I think we can safely say that the strongest Fishman we've encountered is Jinbe. Yet, while Jinbe is certainly a top tier fighter, he's definitely not at a level where he can combat someone like Sakazuki. Also, Jinbe has been shown time and again to be pretty unique. No other fishman alive even comes close to his abilities. Hody's gang was said to be a joke compared to Jinbe in terms of their mastery over Fishmen karate, and just raw power alone. Even Arlong, who was Jinbe's peer is way beneath him. In fact, the only other fishemen we've seen that could arguably be compared to Jinbe is obviously his captain Fisher Tiger, who is unfortunately dead. (I actually have a side question about this. Can we say for sure that Fisher Tiger is stronger than Jinbe? I've always had the feeling that Jinbe has always been the strongest. He simply respects Fisher Tiger as a hero and good leader and willingly follows him.)
So here's my question. Why aren't there more strong Fishmen? If the fishmen's basal potential is already 10 times higher than humans, logically shouldn't it be easier for Fishmen to get that much stronger? Why isn't a top tier fishmen 10 times stronger than a top tier human then?
Here are some possibilities:
1. Population. The human population is just waaaaaaay bigger than Fishmen. Just from population alone, the odds of having strong humans ended up as such, with them far outnumbering strong fishmen like Jinbe.
2. The 10 times stronger isn't actually true. It's a lie the fishmen came up with to make themselves feel better
3. The 10 times stronger refers to the most basic of humans vs fishmen, i.e. the average joes, and doesn't actually scale upwards. In fact, while normal fishmen are stronger than normal humans, the 'maximum potential' of fishmen is actually lower than humans, where fishmen of Jinbe's calibre is probably the highest they can achieve.
4. The 10 times stronger refers to average joes, and it DOES scale up to a certain extent. BUT, the super strong humans we know of are not part of this range of 'normal humans'. Meaning these really strong people are almost like a subspecies of humans, or rather special exceptional humans who just have an overall much higher potential than regular humans. In other words, this is similar to how a portion of our popuation are just born to be geniuses that excels at something beyond regular humans. Just that in the One Piece world, this 'exceptionality' often translates to fighting ability. In the case of Fishmen, such exceptional individuals do occur from time to time, and Jinbe is an example. Simply by virtue of population differences, the odds of having 'exceptional' humans ended up being that much higher than 'exceptional' fishmen (in this case 1?).
5. The mindset that they are born 10 times stronger than humans worked against them. As a result, fishmen generally do not train and work as hard as humans do in improving their abilities. Jinbe is just the product of exceptional hardwork. Considering how Jinbe is said to have mastered the fishmen karate to the highest level, it suggests that other fishmen could have mastered the fishmen karate better, but just didn't.
6. 10x stronger refers purely to physical strength. Many top tier fighters are strong for other reasons apart from physical strength. Having said that though, we've seen some humans show ridiculous physical strength, moreso than any fishmen. In fact, these really strong fighters tend to have monstrous strength as well (like Luffy) that go way beyond what their body size would suggest. Physical strength contributes a lot to fighting ability, and the top tier fighters tend to be physically strong as well, and are seldom fully dependent on their abilities, even if they are ability users.

Author | exchange4media News Service | Saturday, Jan 06,2007 8:53 AM
About this time a year ago, executives at most large entertainment companies were coming to terms with stock performances that couldn't keep pace with the major averages. Walt Disney, News Corp., Time Warner and Viacom were each off about 10% in 2005. Investors looking for healthy returns more likely found them in new media than old.
Last year, new media was a mixed bag, while Disney, News Corp. and TW advanced 44.5%, 35% and 26%, respectively.
Sure, Sony, one of 2005's few winners among the big conglomerates, rose only 5.5% last year and Viacom only rose a paltry 2.5%, but CBS Corp., split from Viacom early last year, climbed 22%.
Some of it was predictable, given the unfavorable environment for media stocks in general—not just in 2005, but also for the two years before that.
William Drewry of Credit Suisse, for example, wrote a year ago that "the biggest disconnect in market performance in 2005 was the underperformance of Disney and News Corp.," and he predicted Disney shares would climb as much as 65%.
Likewise, Jessica Reif Cohen of Merrill Lynch named Disney and News Corp., along with Comcast, as her top picks. Comcast shares advanced 65% last year. More recently she's been bullish on shares of DreamWorks Animation SKG, which advanced 20% last year.
By contrast, new-media leaders like Yahoo saw its shares sink 35% on the year. Even shares of Google, enjoying a modest 11% rise, were no match for old media. And shares of Netflix, which surged an index-leading 120% in 2005, sunk 4.5% last year.
In fact, of the top 10 movers from The Hollywood Reporter's Showbiz 50 stock index, only one, RealNetworks, is generally considered a new-media company. RealNetworks rose 40% last year.
The top movers on the index were Charter Communications, up 150%, Dolby Laboratories, up 82%, DirecTV, up 75% and Marvel Entertainment, up 65%.
Among the biggest losers were big-screen maven Imax and a host of radio companies.
Imax, which couldn't find itself a buyer last year so took itself off the auction block, sank more than 45% during the year. Sirius Satellite Radio and XM Satellite Radio suffered similar declines.
Analysts had been worrying the entire year about satellite radio companies' growth prospects. Both firms reined in their subscriber-growth projections during 2006.
Sirius on Tuesday said it hit previously reduced numbers, ending the year with a little more than six million subscribers, 82% more than it had at year's end 2005. Sirius, run by Mel Karmazin, also said it achieved its first-ever quarter of positive free cash flow in the just-ended fourth quarter.
On top of a banner year for media stocks last year, analysts remain largely bullish this year.
Miller Tabak analyst David Joyce, for example, predicts that shares of Lionsgate Entertainment, which advanced 40% last year, will go up about another 20% in the next year, while Disney shares will advance about 10%.
Even after Charter's surge, the stock is not about to rest, according to Pali Research analyst Richard Greenfield, who sees about another 45% upside this year.
As for the world's largest entertainment conglomerate, analysts see TW shares being boosted by AOL's resurgence, brought about by a dramatic re-embrace of online advertising, as well as the company's Time Warner Cable.
Prudential Group analyst Katherine Styponias, for example, said that TW shares would be worth about 24% more in the next year.
Part of the reason is that Styponias is more bullish on a TWC initial public offering than other analysts. That IPO, which she thinks could happen early this year, is, according to one of her recent research reports, "the place to be."

New Enterprise Piles On The Risk
During the bubble, New Enterprise Associates was the Oldsmobile of venture capital. As rivals made billions on sexy e-commerce plays like eBay Inc. (EBAY ) and operated with a half-dozen partners, NEA's big hits came on lower-profile companies such as 3Com Corp. (COMS ) and UUNET Technologies Inc. And with a staff of 45 investment pros, huge by Silicon Valley standards, NEA's rep was like IBM's: smart and consistent, sure, but also slow and not too innovative.
No more. Last month, NEA announced a new $2.5 billion venture fund, the largest in its 28-year history and the second-largest the industry has ever seen. More surprising is that NEA will spend up to half of it on high-risk deals most VCs spurn: mega-investments in money- losing businesses, many of which haven't gotten their technologies to work yet. Some of the money will prop up cash-burning public companies that can't otherwise raise capital. In other deals, NEA will acquire unproven drugs -- many with U.S. regulatory approval still years away -- from Big Pharma outfits and build startups around them. "We've expanded the definition of what we do," says NEA managing general partner Peter Barris, a former GE Information Systems executive.
Already, NEA has put $25 million into the first round of funding for CoGenesys Inc., a spin-off from Human Genome Sciences Inc. (HGSI ) that's developing drugs for heart failure and white-blood-cell disorders. NEA's money was part of a $55 million financing, 20 times what a Web media startup might raise so early on.
This is swashbuckling stuff. If a company's technology is unfinished or hasn't landed customers, a VC firm usually puts up only a few million dollars initially. That approach shoulders what VCs call "technology risk" while minimizing financial risk. When VC outfits make big bets, they usually insist the technology be finished and the company be cash-flow positive. The size of the investment adds financial risk, but only after technology risk is resolved. NEA's fund is unusual because it takes financial and technology risks at the same time. "I think it's definitely new," says Josh Grove, an analyst at VentureOne. "We haven't seen anything quite like what they're doing."
Why do it? Partly because of the moribund initial public offering market. Only 29 venture-backed companies went public in the first half of 2006, down from 42 in early 2004, the only strong IPO year since 2000. To generate returns, NEA must take more chances. It has recruited managers from IT and life-sciences industries, including ex-Guidant Corp. chairman Jay Graf, and says it can manage tech risk with big dollars at stake. "If we don't have exactly the right person to understand an idea, that person is never more than a call away," Barris says.
NEA was able to sell the concept to institutional investors who put up the $2.3 billion mostly because of its own reputation. "They have a lot of [industry] expertise," says Thaddeus I. Gray, managing director of Abbott Capital Management, which advises institutions on private equity deals, "and top-tier firms like that get access to the best deals." Erik R. Hirsch, chief investment officer at adviser Hamilton Lane, says NEA can hedge risk across an 80-deal portfolio well enough to be a top performer. "We'll take risk, but we'll be compensated for that risk," Hirsch says.
Still, the idea of taking big chances on unproven technologies makes some rivals shake their heads. TA Associates Inc. does large, late-stage venture deals but avoids tech risk and major gambles on money-losers. "We do transactions like that -- by mistake,"says TA CEO C. Kevin Landry.
But the weak IPO market is making VCs rethink tactics. Oak Investment Partners has a similar strategy for a new $2.6 billion fund. For better or worse, NEA's new attitude toward risk is catching on.

Believe it or not, unconventional gift wrapping is now considered fashionable and "artistic". I just used a recycled netting from a bag of oranges around a book with a card in the front and closed with squares of glittery mylar with holes cut into them through which I drew the netting to create a rosette of sorts - to great acclaim. (Save all that netting you run into - it's great for quick gift wrap.)
By Pam from Los Angeles
I love the idea, Pam. I used an empty flour bag once for gift giving. I shook it out really well, cut off the top to have a straight edge, hot glued a fabric ruffle along the top, and packed a zip-lock bag of cookies into it. My friend liked the bag so much she kept it in her kitchen as a decoration. It's good to have friends that are as weird as me and appreciate my frugality! (11/07/2006)
Coffee and cookie bags also work nicely (and smell great): easy to decorate!

So I made some Halloween NFSC. DELICIOUS! w/ Antonia74's (?)RI sorry, I didn't check the user before I started typing.) My icing doesn't have the sheen I am seeing in pis of other cookies. Is this just because the flash or do I not know the secret?
The recipe you used dries to a matte finish.
Try Toba's Glace to ice them. Dries shiny.
You can add corn syrup to that recipe to make them shiny.
about how much corn syrup would you want to add for a shine? Thanks!
i use a Tbsp if I want the icing to stay thick for outlining, more than that if I'm using the icing to flood. I use corn syrup in place of water at all times.
Thanks so much. I will try it. I really like the recipe. Will I still be able to stack them, w/out breaking after they are dry? I want to try Toba's Glace as well. I am going to try my new cutters this week from D& G in orlando. I can hardly wait!
I like Antonia's, but once I started using Toba's Glace I've never gone back, it's just so easy for me to mix up and I love how my colors come out with it, there are a few tricks though. So if you try it make sure you add some bright white coloring to it (I add about 20 drops to the big batch before splitting it into my bowls for coloring) and just make sure they dry in a not cold environment.
I have had such good results every single time and there is a low shine once they are dry, taste good and stand up to bagging and stacking. For things I want to have extra shimmer I dry brush with Pearl Dust. Have fun, I am always giddy when I have new cutters on the way!

Is a verandah room recommended on this iteniary. Has anyone booked an otside room with a window?
A balcony is always recommended if you can afford it!!!!
The rooms are the same size it is a personal preference if you want a balcony or not
We have done both cabin types & we did not use the balcony much
Your cruise is port intensive .. you need to ask yourself how much time will you spend on the balcony?
We did 32 days in C1 cabin deck 4 & 26 days in B2 deck 6
We found we spent more time on deck or on shore than in the cabin.
enjoy the cruise
No matter how port intensive a cruise is we would still want a balcony. After a busy day on shore it is especially nice to be able to enjoy the departure from your own private space. Also, when travelling with a partner, it is pleasant to enjoy the balcony while your partner is hogging the bathroom. http://cruise-chat.com/groupee_commo...icon_smile.gif If we had to chose between a cruise with a balcony or 2 cruises without, it would be no contest. We would always chose the balcony.
For us it is not that important
Of course it is a personal choice. I envy you for not caring - what a lot of money you save.
Personally, we would stay at home if we could not have a balcony. I love to sleep with the doors open and hear and smell the water. I love to watch from our our balcony as we arrive and leave the ports. I love to relax on the balcony while waiting for DH to get out of the bathroom!!! On port days I love to be awakened by the arrival of breakfast which we can enjoy on the balcony to save time going to the dining room.
To each his own. http://cruise-chat.com/groupee_commo...icon_smile.gif

National Candy Corn Day is celebrated annually on October 30th.
Candy Corn was created by George Renninger of Wunderle Candy Company in the late 1800′s. He created this sweet treat to represent the pretty colors of kernels of corn. Originally, Candy Corn was yellow, orange, and white, but has become popular in other colors as well, when produced for Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Easter.
This confection was originally made by hand using corn syrup, sugar, water, marshmallows, Fondant, and carnauba wax (a wax made from the leaves of a palm tree), but it is now produced using machines. The originally ingredients are still used in the recipe.
Whether you are adventurous and want to go whip up a batch or go and purchase a bag, go and enjoy National Candy Corn Day.
Within our research, we were unable to find the creator and origin of National Candy Corn Day, an "unofficial" national holiday.
Speak Up For Service Day is being established to recognize the importance of telling others about the need for young people to be actively involved in community service. Too often, good deeds of service by young people go unnoticed by their communities. This Speak Up For Service Day gives recognition to the unnoticed and serves as a reminder that people should tell others about the contributions of young people to their communities.
Sponsored by the Lions of North Dakota, the Speak Up For Service public speaking contest has become an annual event held in conjunction with the North Dakota State Lions Convention. Other Lions Clubs and Districts throughout North America sponsor similar public speaking contests where young people share their insight on issues of the day and the contributions of Lions to making the world a better place.
The history of the Speak Up For Service Project began in 2003 when the Fargo Lions Club initiated a public speaking contest for area high school students in honor of Laura Christensen Espejo, an woman who devoted her life to improving the health care services available to the less fortunate in the Fargo community and in Peru, the country of her husband Lucho. Lion Robert Littlefield coordinated the contest on the local level before launching it as a statewide initiative while serving as District Governor in 2010-2011.
In 2010, the first annual Lions Speak Up For Service public speaking contest was held at the North Dakota State Lions Convention held in Grand Forks. High school students who entered the competition spoke on topics related to young people and community service. Brent Johnson, a senior at Shanley High School was the first state winner of the Speak Up For Service contest. Johnson and the other contestants received scholarships for their participation in the event.

WOW, what a top of the ridge view! Hemlock Point is an Appalachian Log Homes cabin built in the vernacular of the Appalachian style. Square logs reminiscent of the Scotch Irish settlers in the 1700's make you feel as if you have stepped back to an earlier time. Large hemlocks, abundant on this property give Hemlock Point cabin its name. Furnished with antiques, a claw foot bathtub, natural materials, comfy furniture, quilts, a soapstone fireplace (albeit gas logs), a gun over the mantle, a variety of varmints hung on the wall (bought at auction)... collections to create an atmosphere of make believe. You are a now in the role of mountain settler, cozy up to the fire and set a spell.
The mountain ridge views from this log home are phenomenal. The breezes of refreshing mountain air are exhilarating. Looking out over 7 to 9 ridges (depends on the day) you can imagine how it looked to 'first nations' peoples and early settlers seeing it for the first time. Daniel Boone traversed these mountain ranges, living just few miles away on the Yadkin River. You certainly will believe that God was at work in building all the mountain's glory. Most of our guests have commented on God's blessings for this space, this mountain, this respite in their lives. Leatherwood Mountains subdivision, a 5000 acre gated community in southwestern Wilkes County, NC, is well known in the horse world for its extensive horse trail system, some of the most rugged in the eastern United States. Hemlock Point cabin has two horse stalls and pasture available for our guests.
The 75 miles of trails within the subdivision are perfect for hikers as well as horsemen. The views, the trails, the nature, the glory will abide here for all time.
Sitting on the top of a ridge, Hemlock Point cabin's views toward the western mountain ranges encompass up to 7 distant ridges. Nearly every window in the cabin features a long range mountain vista. Hemlock Point cabin is located in private wilderness Leatherwood Mountains subdivision. But being in the wilderness does not mean that one should be without modern comforts. The cabin features Digital television with Chromecast, WiFi, a new hot tub, and a well stocked kitchen for your convenience. Leatherwood Mountain's swimming pool, tennis courts, hiking and riding trails, and mountain fishing streams are also available. Check out the owner's link below to for additional information and photographs.

'The Human Spirit needs places where nature has not been rearranged by the hand of man,' written by an unknown author. We love the rural life! Our passions are the Blue Ridge Mountains and Eastern North Carolina on the Pamlico River. We surround our lives with history and culture; finding joy in the lives of those that came before us. We relish all things of nature: woods, wildlife, Celtic Music, boating, hiking, horseback riding, crafting, gardening... we see God's hands at work in the land and the creative spirit.
Mary Helen Ellis purchased this cabin in 1999
In 1997 we made a leap of faith and purchased our first property at Leatherwood Mountains Resort. We appreciated Leatherwood Mountain's concept of stewardship in creating a human presence but maintaining the wilderness for all generations. Our 16 acres at the center of 5000 protected acres will always be a home for God's creatures. Our views across the mountains will pretty much be the same for our lives and the lives of those that come after us. The North Carolina High Country in northeastern N C has a tremendous cultural history that speaks to our interests. The beauty and availability of wilderness areas soothes our souls. We feel very blessed to have found our spot that brings all of our loves together.
Hemlock Point is designed to take you away from where ever you come from...away to an earlier time in our history, back to life of our forefathers. Mountain life was part and parcel to the environment...the home was made from trees, the scene taken in was of God's handiwork, everything was slower and more deliberate in nature; one heard the cicadas, saw the stars in the night sky, witnessed the morning sunrise. We want there to be a place left in this busy world to relish nature. Take a horse back ride through the mountains. But all that being said, Hemlock Point is situated close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and is close to many Blue Ridge Mountain activities and points of interest. Best of both worlds!
Hemlock Point cabin is located in gated Leatherwood Mountains Resort. The square Hemlock logs, gas fireplace, rustic wood cabinets and antiques, including a claw foot tub, are all meant to give you the true North Carolina mountain settler cabin experience.
Hi Mary Helen
Just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much we enjoyed Hemlock.
Very sad day for us.
We decided on a whim to head out of town with our 2yr old son and just regroup as a family. Arriving at Hemlock in time for sunset on the deck was perfect.
You have a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing it with us.
This cabin is beautiful! Hot tub and fireplace on a big covered deck with mountain views... Who could ask for more? Amazing kitchen and bathrooms. Lots of fun stuff to keep you busy, like ping pong and great movie selection. Bring records, because there is a record player!
We had a great time! Cabin is nicer than it appears in the pictures. We really enjoyed the hot tub, large rocking chair front porch and the built in exterior fire place. It was a bit further from Boone than we thought (about 40 minutes) but that was fine for a day trip. Would definitely come back!
You must see it for yourself to believe it! It's so beautiful and so comfortable. Love it! We will definitely come back! Thank you to the owner and caretaker for making it such a wonderful place!
The owner is very easy to work with. She answers emails within the day and is flexible and accommodating, a true pleasure to work with. I plan to return!
Away from everything except the Buffalo Mercantile Company which really does have good food and friendly staff. We enjoyed our long weekend and will certainly consider returning. Very comfortable and we had no problems.
This is a great, quiet, spot in the mountains. Really enjoyed walking around the Leatherwood streets (lots of up and down), lounging by the fire watching movies, and soaking in the hot tub. Beautiful sunsets and sunrises each day.
Guided horse back riding, hiking, mountain creek tubing. This cabin rents with Rollin N the Hay for a 10% discount on both.

Two games into his postseason career and Blake Griffin hasn't turned in a dominant performance, and the Clippers are paying for it. At least it seems that way.
Griffin's season has been a mixed bag of sorts, as his raw numbers like scoring and rebounding have declined while his efficiency numbers like field goal percentage and PER are on the rise.
But while Griffin's been more efficient and reliable in his second year, he's also been less explosive, and with the Clippers heading into their two most important home games of the season, it'd be great if he broke out for a monster game. Right?
Using Basketball-Refernce.com's game score metric, the numbers speak to Griffin's decline in dominance. Last season, Griffin had 12 games where he had a game score of 25.0 or more. This year, Griffin had five games scored over 25.0.
Last season, Griffin grabbed more than 15 rebounds 15 times; this year, Griffin did it four times. In his rookie year, Griffin scored 30 points or more 14 times; this year, it happened four times.
In a general way, it makes some sense that Griffin's scoring and rebounding would go down. The Clippers are a better team with better players this season, spreading out the points and rebounds.
But here's the weird thing. The times this year Griffin's had his very best statistical games, the Clippers have lost. In the 15-plus rebound games, the Clippers are 2-2. In the games where he scored 30 or more points, the Clippers are 1-3.
And it gets weirder.
In games where Griffin scored 25 or more this season, the Clippers are 3-12.
Small sample size alert, but in this series, the Clippers lost when Griffin scored 22 and won when he scored 17.
I'm not sure what this means because it defies logic to say that the better Griffin plays in terms of points and rebounds, the worse the results.
But the numbers say otherwise, and that has me confused.
Tell us in the comments why you think the Clippers have lost in Griffin's best statistical games.

I am terrible at interviews. I get nervous, lose my train of thought, say awkward things and have trouble forming coherent sentences. The usual comfortableness I feel with others fades away as soon as the torrent of questions begins to weaken my resolve. If I'm lucky, what I say will at least sound intelligent, even if it doesn't make any sense. Especially between all the um's and awkward silences.
In an effort to overcome this, I decided to research ways to excel at interviews, as well as asking friends for their advice on what has worked for them. Hopefully my findings can help others who experience the same kind of painful interviewing experiences that I do. Here are some tips broken down into a comprehensive, numerically descending list (because I love making lists):
5. "My advice to someone would be to know the company you are interviewing with. Do your homework on that company." – Arla Boss
It is imperative to know exactly who you are working for. If they start asking you questions about their company and you have no answers because you didn't do your research, it may seem like you just don't care. Trust me, I've had it happen, and it's embarrassing. Employers want to hire people who care about their company and share the same values. Being prepared is essential.
4. "Above everything, show that the two things you care about most are accomplishing the task at hand, and meshing well with your fellow coworkers. Managerial staff always look for those two things when they are hiring a new employee. Will they get the job done effectively and on time? And will they cause a problem with other employees?" -Riley Milligan, Sales Director at Seattle Athletic Club
While it is important to have the necessary qualifications to perform the tasks and duties asked of you, it is just as important to be a team-player and get along well with others. No one wants to hire someone with a crummy attitude, even if their resume is stacked with skills and degrees. It is important to a company and their culture that their employees get along, bounce ideas off each other, and motivate each other. They are looking for the right "cultural fit". This is the time to let your charming personality shine through!
"What are your strengths and weaknesses?" This is a question interviewers love to ask, and one you should always be prepared to answer. You could try Michael Scott's technique (see video above), or mention weaknesses that don't pertain to the position you are applying for. For example, if you are applying to be a graphic designer, you don't have to be great with numbers. Don't be fake or dishonest, but try to answer their questions in clever ways. Think of all the questions they might ask you and prepare your answers in advance. Don't over-prepare though, you want to sound natural!
2. "In my experience, a large majority of the interview is based not necessarily on the answers you give, but the way you present yourself, self-confidence, grooming, attire, and personality. You are in a way advertising yourself and your capabilities. Show them what you have to bring to the table that your competition doesn't."
– Sarah Taylor
Confidence is key. This is a problem that I struggle with, but with more interviews and more practice, it gets better. Employers don't want someone who is unsure of what they're doing, or even unsure of themselves. They want someone who is willing to take the reins and perform. When you are at an interview, you are essentially selling yourself. "Dress for success" is a common term, but one that is so true. If you go in looking like you sleep in a cardboard box in an alley way, then you probably won't make a very good impression. Be creative, and be memorable! Employers usually interview many people for a position, and it's easy for them to forget the people who were ordinary. Make a great first impression and show them that you are in demand. Rather than be desperate to get the job, they should be desperate to hire you for the job. Show them that you aren't ordinary, but extraordinary!
This is the most common advice I hear, and probably the easiest to accomplish (unless you hate smiling, then you clearly have other issues). Be friendly and warm. Make eye contact. Be a person that people will want to work with. If you go through the whole interview looking like you are miserable, they definitely will not hire you. If you are applying for a job in the customer service industry, be sure to amp up the smiles and energy! But like I said before, don't overdo it. Be natural.
And most importantly, be yourself. If that doesn't work, then you probably don't want to work for them anyway. The right place for you is where you will be accepted and where your talents will be appreciated. Don't settle for anything less than what you deserve.

Skinny Geek All Grown Up
Posted on May 22, 2015 in That's Life
I remember lying in bed one night when Molly was about 6 months old and saying to Pete "I've had this jolly song stuck in my head all day".
"Oh, which one?" he said and I sang,
"I'm a dingle dangle scarecrow with a flippy floppy hat, I can shake shake my hands like this, I can shake my feet like that!"
Now, in what feels like only a few days since then she is off to the theater to see 'La Traviata'.
Look who was worried that they were always going to be a skinny geek with limbs like pretzels, she certainly suits those limbs now.

You look absolutely stunning Molly, hope you enjoyed the opera, it had great reviews xo

Dear Tech Billionaires:
I'm sure you've all heard of the growing Ebola crisis that has infected more than 10,000 people in West Africa, while spreading fear across the rest of the world.
Yet most of you don't seem to think that the Ebola outbreak has anything to do with you. That has got to change.
Kudos go out to Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, who has come up with a $100 million donation, including financing a pair of safety cocoons: containment units designed to evacuate infected healthcare workers from West Africa. Fellow Microsoft founder Bill Gates has offered $50 million through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg and his wife have pledged $25 million.
That's totally awesome and deserves massive respect. But what about the rest of you?
Do you not think Ebola is a threat to yourselves or your businesses? Maybe you think you can hide on your private island—I'm looking at you Larry Ellison.
Maybe you're having a cash-flow problem after overpaying for a basketball team—I'm asking you, Steve Ballmer.
Maybe your political beliefs tell you it's not your responsibility to help fight a disease killing people on another continent, even though it's not likely to stay there—sound familiar, Peter Thiel?
Unfortunately, I could go on and on. What are you doing, Tim Cook? How about you, Marissa Mayer? Hey Sergei and Larry, maybe we ought to do something about this Ebola thing before chasing after the next "moonshot"? Jeff Bezos: Sure, the Washington Post is a nice toy, but this is pretty important stuff, too.
Of course, this isn't just about the big names in the technology industry. What about all you 25-year-old startup guys? If you're a founder of Instagram, or Beats Audio, or Dropbox, or WhatsApp, or Workday, or Twitter, or whatever, maybe now is the time put some of your windfalls to good use. Oh, and if you're a fabulously rich lieutenant in the tech industry, I'm talking to you, too.
This letter is also addressed to the mega-rich owners of big Asian tech companies, who also don't seem to be doing much in this regard. Heck, tiny, dirt-poor Cuba is sending hundreds of doctors and nurses to West Africa to fight the virus. What is coming from the world's second largest economy? Not much, apparently.
Ebola isn't a challenge just for the tech industry, but tech is the industry that we're all in, so I'm calling out anyone in our business who's worth at least $1 billion to make a significant donation—seven figures or more, ideally much more—to help stop Ebola before it gets out of hand. And I'm asking them to do it publicly, to encourage their peers to do their parts as well. Think of it as an urgent, high-stakes version of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.
It's not too late, but this outbreak is only going to get nastier, more expensive, and harder to deal with if we don't marshal resources our resources quickly.
Yeah, I know that if all this money starts pouring in at once, some if it is going to be wasted, and some of it will be misappropriated or even outright stolen along the way. That sucks, but it doesn't get you off the hook. Even with all that, we all know it's still going to be a lot cheaper and save a lot more lives the quicker and more massive the intervention.
So c'mon all you tech billionaires, let's get moving and save the world. And show the world that you're not the entitled, self-absorbed brats that many people think you are.
If you can't figure out where to send your money, you can start with Doctors Without Borders or this list of non-governmental organizations fighting Ebola. Of course, if you're a billionaire, you probably have "people." Why not put some of your best ones on it?

Carson Helicopters of Perkasie, Pa., has been granted FAA certification for new main rotor blades for the Sikorsky S-61. The design incorporates two airfoils and 12 degrees of twist, giving the venerable Sikorsky workhorse 2,000 pounds more lift in a hover and adding 15 knots to the cruise speed compared with the standard metal blades at the same power settings. Carson has signed a contract with NASA for exclusive use of the airfoils.
In fact, Carson is so confident in the pent-up demand for the blades from both civil and military users of the S-61 that it has already contracted with Composite Structures of Monrovia, Calif., for an initial batch of 100 blades.
Frank Carson, owner and CEO of the company that bears his name, said the blades would be available commercially by the end of this year. He estimated the price for a set of five blades at $1.1 million, but said he plans to make the blades available to other commercial operators at an as yet undetermined hourly rate.
Still in the works are new tail-rotor blades based on the same airfoil design, which Carson expects to have flying by the end of the year. These, he said, will provide the aircraft with an extra 400 pounds of lift in a hover. The company is also working with Boundary Layer Research to develop tailboom strakes for the S-61. And Carson is also researching a main landing gear modification, which would replace the S-61's double wheels with a Black Hawk-like single wheel and a narrower sponson to reduce drag, as well as an engine upgrade to give the aircraft more power.
Carson Helicopters operates an FAA-approved maintenance facility for all S-61 models and holds several approved modifications for the S-61A and -N. Employing some 250 people, it is involved in logging, construction and airborne geophysical mapping.

I am trapped, cleaning in our guest house which is where my daughter had been living for three years.
I try to stay out of my kids houses so I don't have to kill them.
Now I know I have been smart because they would be dead.
Over the last 2 days I've spent 14 hours and have not finished the kitchen. The kitchen is about the size of 2 of my closets.
At least I am almost done outside.
Teddy waits every day for me to come back home!
Finally the raised bed is planted and mulched.
It should fill in soon.
I thoroughly watered it this morning.
Just so you don't think I am exaggerating....this is the kitchen.
Part of the first floor. Quite a mess.
The dining room is under all of this.
Sorry for the blur....we had an earthquake! Everything shook and rattled. I'll show photos of things when they are completed! If I am going to die in an earthquake I hope it gets me before I tackle the second floor.

We show that cheap large area color filters, based on surface scattering, can be fabricated in dielectric materials by replication of random structures in silicon. The specular transmittance of three different types of structures, corresponding to three different colors, have been characterized. The angle resolved scattering has been measured and compared to predictions based on the measured surface topography and by the use of non-paraxial scalar diffraction theory. From this it is shown that the color of the transmitted light can be predicted from the topography of the randomly textured surfaces.

Just like to say from the get-go im not being racist, This is just fact.
Whenever i see a film or show from the US, Its quickly apparent almost all the African females are overweight and or obese. I dug into it, And found out in the US, an estimated 82% of African females are obese/overweight. Compared to the 67.2% of white females who are overweight/obese.
Why is this do you think?
(Please no racist opinions, I am honestly just curious as to why there is such a massive difference between the races)
Why are so many black women overweight / obese?

报导╱陈彦豪 摄影╱薛泰安
For the contemporary age, these classic works present richly beautiful, powerful images and a sense of mystery engendered by distance in time. Yet unlike dynastic-era artists whose imitations were based on the foundation of "reverence for antiquity," these famous works, after having undergone mass reproduction, ceased being rarely glimpsed works of the imperial court and became "images" that anyone could behold or obtain at a moment's notice. They had even lost the textures and brushstrokes of the original, existing in a "flattened" state. Ruminating on local history, cultural values and identity, Taiwanese contemporary artists made use of those artworks that once adorned imperial power and symbolized the tastes of the literati class, engaging in a dialogue with their own history and culture, disassembling, reassembling, re-creating and altering the styles and subject matter of classic works through symbolic or allegorical images in order to enunciate their views on the present-day state of affairs through simile or metaphor. These include: consideration and breakthroughs in aesthetics and forms of expression; criticism of the current state of Taiwanese society, history and culture; voicing of their own inner ideal worlds and feelings about life; and the transformation of the artistic tastes of the past to a popular, commercial aesthetic more closely oriented toward everyday life. At the same time, as contemporary artists re-examine and re-create classic works of the past, they also re-accentuate and rediscover the artistic accomplishments of the past in light of new definitions and the perspective of art history. As artists refabricate the past, amid this convergence of dual-directional observation, discovery, transformation and original creation, they yield a wealth of meaning and limitless possibilities of expression in the contemporary era.

Fashion labels' reliance on big names is a double-edged sword
Related topics
What's in a name? Quite a lot, it seems, if the fashion industry is anything to go by. Last week two famed designers had their moment in the spotlight.
First, Swedish retail giant H&M announced a deal with easy-chic French designer Isabel Marant - a continuation of the high-low collaborations that have changed the game on the high street. Madonna, Karl Lagerfeld, Maison Martin Margiela and Commes des Garcons have all knocked out HK$500 tops and bottoms with the retailer.
In the contemporary and designer fashion segment, it was Taiwanese-Canadian designer Jason Wu who made headlines as the new artistic director of Hugo Boss womenswear and accessories. Appointing a famous name to head the brand's flagging women's lines is both a creative and a marketing-driven choice.
The young Wu has been based in New York and is already a darling of the American fashion world, championed by the likes of Anna Wintour at Vogue. With friends in high places, he has managed to dress American First Lady Michelle Obama at several major events, including both her husband's inaugurations.
Wu's designs, noted for their elegant femininity, luxe fabrication and a modern touch, are just the thing to spice up Hugo Boss' somewhat staid offerings for women. Those glamorous gowns that he is famous for, not without a hint of edginess and sparkle, could help to save the women's label from its dated "work-focused pant suit" reputation.
It's no secret that the German label is also largely reliant on a Chinese clientele, having just thrown a huge catwalk show and after party in Shanghai. Its many lines and more accessible price points have big potential for attracting the mainland's middle class.
Wu, one of the generation of big name Asian-American designers, is indeed a coup for the brand. His appointment has caused a stir on the mainland, and internationally.
Appointing a big name creative is the direction that nearly all fashion houses are going in, even those that seemed content with just a design studio. Celebrities are now part of the game, for better or worse.
Storied men's tailoring houses have followed suit. Ermenegildo Zegna held out for as long as possible until last year appointing Stefano Pilati as head of design. Gieves & Hawkes snatched up Jason Basmajian, formerly of Brioni, after the Fung Group's Trinity bought it.
But as much as a big name injects fresh talent and media interest into a brand, the fallout can be intense when that name leaves, as those at Christian Dior know all too well.
And this month it's bad news for Mulberry with Emma Hill deciding to leave the brand. Although exactly why and when has not yet been announced, Mulberry shares tumbled on the news - a precarious situation that no doubt sends a wider message to the industry.

John Dalton
The story of John Dalton
john Dalton was born on September 6th, 1766.
Johns discovery was that an atom can not be created nor destroyed. This was discovered in england, September 6th 1803.
He studied gas and While studying gases he learned it wasn't that. It was a mechanical system composed of small individual particles applied by each gas pressure. Dalton was a president for Manchester and philosopher for a society. John wrote a paper relating to the vision of colors. He was the first human to discover blindness.
He also loved to measure the weather with his tools. In 1803 he published his gas law witch was referred by Daltons law. Basically what this law sais is the pressure is equal to the partial pressure towards every gas particle. John Dalton was not married though. His scientific work began in 1787. Also he lived a simple life.
