Among the carnage in the streets of Vancouver after last week's Stanley Cup playoff loss comes the story of people who were victims of their own social media stupidity.
Exhibit A: Connor Mcilvenna, a 22-year-old Vancouver construction worker, said he was downtown "watching the riots" and decided to post a few pro-riot updates on his Facebook page. They included: "that riot was AWESOME!!!" and "atta boy vancity!! Show em how we do it!!" and "Vancouver needed remodeling anyway." His profile included his employer's name.
The morning after, Mcilvenna's supervisor called him into the office, read him the riot act and then fired him. As the boss told CTV News, "I just didn't feel like what was said was appropriate, and I didn't want any affiliation towards my company with the things he said on Facebook."
Do your employees know that their Facebook foibles and Twitter trip-ups could affect their employment status? Have you given them fair warning?
These days, every employer should have a policy on employees' social media usage. Here are the five points to make clear:
1. Don't expect privacy. Employees need to know that information posted on social media sites should not be considered private. Remind them that their postings will exist in a public forum for a long time.
2. Use good judgment. Warn employees that if information they post on a social media site violates any company policy, affects the employee's job performance, or hurts the reputation of other employees or the company's business interests, they may be subject to discipline up to and including termination.
3. Only on your own time. If you want to draw a hard line, inform employees that they are prohibited from participating in social media during working time.
4. Post as yourself. Tell employees that if they make references that could in any way be attributed to the company, the employee must notify readers that the views, opinions, ideas and information are the employee's own, and are not sanctioned by the company.
5. Keep secrets and don't steal. Remind employees that they are prohibited from disclosing proprietary information, data, trade secrets or other confidential nonpublic company information. Inform them that they may not use or disclose the company's intellectual property online without advance, written permission.
Have your employees caused social media troubles … and, if so, what's been your response?

Over 100 ejected tenants in Kumasi blame Adumhene for their woes
Over hundred tenants have been rendered homeless at a house in Kumasi, Adum after they were ejected.
The affected tenants have accused Adumhene, Baffour Agyei Kesse IV of instructing the over 15 men to eject them from their rooms.
"We were here this early morning when the police came, entered our rooms and started bringing out our stuff, they have broken our windows and brought all our stuff out of the rooms", one of the affected tenant lamented.
Another tenant who said she wasn't even home when they broke into her room and brought out her stuff.
"I came from the market and met about 15 heavily built men ransacking my room, I inquired and was told it was Adumhene who instructed them to come and evacuate us. Where do we go now, where do we take our kids to?" She asked sadly.
The exercise was under the supervision of about ten armed police officers.
The tenants claimed that they were not given prior notice before the ejection, but only woke up early Tuesday's morning to witness the incident.
However one of them said some of them were given a month's notice, but queried, "where were we going to get rooms to rent in a month"?
The victims say they have nowhere to go since their rent had not expired, and it was difficult for them to rent new accommodation because they have no money.

A LAWYER who is helping bikies fight the Newman Government in the High Court has fallen foul of the legal watchdog.
Solicitor Zeke Bentley, whose firm is leading the challenge to Queensland's anti-gang laws, has been charged with professional misconduct by the Legal Services Commissioner.
The LSC claims Mr Bentley falsely witnessed a sworn statement for a client who was 15,000km away in Budapest, Hungary, on May 22 last year.
The watchdog has applied for disciplinary proceedings — which might range from practice conditions to suspension — against Mr Bentley in the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal.
It follows a complaint to the LSC by businessman Jarrod Sierocki, who successfully sued Mr Bentley's client, Paul Klerck, over online slurs in a defamation case that also embroiled Google.
Mr Bentley said the charge came down to a "difference in interpretation" of court rules for taking a statement from someone overseas who "cannot find an authorised witness who speaks English".
"I hope the issues will be resolved as early as possible, especially given this is the first time in 18 years of practice as a lawyer that I have faced a proceeding like this," he said.
"I take my professional obligations seriously, I will be defending the matter, and I respect the important role performed by the LSC in protecting the reputation of the profession and the public."
Mr Bentley's firm Irish Bentley is representing the United Motorcycle Council Queensland in its bid to defeat anti-gang laws including the Vicious Lawless Association Disestablishment Act.
Commissioner John Briton last month revealed a backlog of 55 cases against lawyers in QCAT after the government had failed to appoint anyone to hear them.

Explanation of Idea: a universal design strategy for the Irish town. Cairdeas provides support for older people in their homes using modern technologies; the home is linked to a social hub in the centre of the town. The project operates around a community development platform, allowing redistribution of revenue towards spatial interventions that improve the area. This strengthens local networks and promotes micro‐enterprises to build resilient lifetime communities.
What problem does it solve: Prevents social isolation and loneliness for older people using technology and the principles of Universal Design.

What problem does it solve: Helps solve the problem of choice, anxiety, time, bed blocking in health care and accommodation costs.
Team Member Names: Aiden O' Donovan (Senior Architectural Technologist), Albert Hamilton (Card Group)
The Abhaile Project (Winner)
(Click to Download Large A1 Poster Summary – 5.8MB)
Explanation of Idea: Abhaile is developing an innovative new solution to help address the housing needs of an ageing population, whilst carving much needed new one‐bedroomed rental capacity from our existing housing stock in mature urban areas from a Universal Design approach.
Abhaile supports homeowners to reconfigure their two ‐storey house: future‐proofing the garden level by creating an independent living area suitable for the older homeowner, eliminating the need to use the stairs; and creating an affordable, single occupancy, one‐bedroomed rental unit upstairs (subject to local authority agreement).
What problem does it solve: Instead of suggesting that older homeowners move out of their homes into custom built schemes, Abhaile promotes an efficient way to use our existing housing stock.
Abhaile is a new idea that applies an innovative design to one of our most common urban house layouts ‐ the three‐bedroomed semi‐D ‐ whilst incorporating good tax, legal and financial planning. Another important aspect of the design is to allow the homeowner to live securely and independently downstairs, whilst promoting interaction with the person living upstairs, thereby reducing isolation.

Multi‐Generational Adaptable Homes
(Click to Download Large A1 Poster Summary – 1.1MB)
Explanation of Idea: The concept allows for a number of small but significant changes in the specification for a new home designs which will enable residents to alter, extend or subdivide their home in order to meet their future needs.
By building in adaptability at construction stage the cost of change is minimised when adaptation takes place. The proposed new housing typology allows for various configurations that allow the dwelling to adapt, not just in one lifetime but over several lifetimes as housing needs change. The concept supports the principle of integrated yet independent living. It allow for down‐sizing, sub‐division, extending, adaptation and creation of a live‐work space with minimal disruption and expense.
What problem does it solve: Allows for down‐sizing without having to move out, allows for parents to assist their children in realising their first home and allows for independent living. There is a mutually beneficial relationship in having an integrated community where people of all ages make a contribution to society.

TOKYO, May 2 (Reuters) - Japanese government bond prices followed a slide by U.S. Treasuries and dipped on Tuesday, with caution ahead of the week's key events limiting overall movements.
The 20-year JGB yield and the 30-year yield both rose half a basis point to 0.560 percent and 0.790 percent, respectively.
Super-long JGB yields nudged up after the U.S. Treasury yield curve steepened overnight, with the 30-year U.S. long bond yield spiking to a three-week high, after U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin reiterated his support for ultra long-term debt issuance.
Low liquidity constrained JGBs, with investors not inclined to move very much with Tokyo markets closed for three days from Wednesday for the Golden Week holidays.
Key events due to occur while the Tokyo markets are closed include the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary policy decision on Wednesday, a series of U.S. data releases leading up to Friday's non-farm payrolls report, and the second round of the French presidential election at the weekend.
The benchmark 10-year JGB was untraded, reflecting the prevailing wait-and-see mood. (Reporting by the Tokyo markets team)

We all have a purpose and a reason for being here on earth. We have come together to share our talents and Soul Gifts in service and love. Learn the tools to live a conscious abundant lifestyle. Helping you create a life of purpose and meaning through living your Soul Expression.
Navigating the Great Soul Awakening DailyOM online course
Spiritual Awareness
It is by my spiritual practice and working with my teachers, those in dense physical form and those not embodied that i more deeply understand my path and my Soul Expression.
In meditating, contemplating it is easier to move into the comfort of the deeper realms of spiritual knowing and awareness.
This deeper awareness when mixed with a silly light joy of this human experience brings a lightness of being...
I straddle 2 worlds...many worlds... and yet they are all the same...
I walk this path with you... side by side. I strive to allow the little me to express and experience in a way that allows a full spectrum expression.
What blocks our Shifting, Ascension, Soul Alignment, and living from Full Radiant Expression?
What I am finding it is the judgment of how we express and experience. Making changes in thought and behavior is great, and even necessary. It is the judgment of where we were or where we are...What we did or did not that is not necessary.
Today, lets together focus on the necessary and leave behind what isn't necessary. :)

Hong Kong - Beijing on Dragonair A330-300
Flight cancellations are major annoyances in many cases - but sometimes cancellations may bring pure joy. The latter happened to my brother and me when Air China cancelled our A321-200 flight and rebooked us on an Dragonair A330-300 service. This report, part 3 of my latest series, will give an impression of the Economy Class product on flight KA900 between Hong Kong and Beijing. All those who are exclusively interested in the flight review should scroll down a bit - and all those who want to see more can also enjoy a selection of pictures from Hong Kong.

The Next 5* Carrier? MUC-MCT-DXB, Oman Air A330
A380 Cacophony, 777 Star Livery: DXB-SIN-HKG on SQ
In early January my brother and I decided to go on a sightseeing trip to Asia by the end of February. Our focus had been on Hong Kong from the very beginning, but we also wanted to enhance a possible trip by another city. My brother suggested to pick Dubai so that we could visit the new Burj Khalifa. I agreed and started searching for the most interesting flight options. It didn't take very long until I found an unbelievable fare offered by a most interesting carrier: Munich-Muscat-Dubai return on Oman Air for 260 Euro!
We decided to try Oman Air and then I started searching for adequate flights between Dubai and Hong Kong. The plan was to spend one night in Dubai each time on the outbound journey and the inbound journey. The whole trip shouldn't last more than one week, so it was clear we wouldn't be able to spend more than three nights in Hong Kong. It wasn't difficult at all to find interesting and affordable flights between Dubai and Hong Kong. In contrast, satisfying options were rare between Hong Kong and Dubai. Problematic were either high fares or unfavorable flying times. Leaving Hong Kong too early would have drastically reduced the sightseeing options - and leaving too late would have been risky regarding the onward flights between Dubai, Muscat and Munich. We also couldn't just add one day due to the limited frequencies between Muscat and Munich. In the end we decided to fly back from Hong Kong to Munich without stopping again in Dubai - it was the most convenient option and absolutely free of risk.
While searching for flights between Dubai and Hong Kong, Singapore Airlines soon caught my attention by offering a one-way connection for 318 Euro - including an A380 flight. My brother hadn't flown on the A380 yet and I was very interested in getting on the bird for the second time (after the premiere on Emirates). Great service and high-quality catering were further arguments for SIA. Unfortunately, the low fare suddenly disappeared and SQ wanted 350 Euro - at least for the A380 combo. We decided it would be worth it.
In addition to the Oman Air and Singapore Airlines flights we selected a Hong Kong-Beijing-Munich connection on Air China (A321-200 and A330-200) for only 290 Euro. I had never flown on Air China before and I knew the A330-200 on the long-haul sector would be equipped with personal IFE screens - so it was worth a try. Even though the final itinerary consisted of only six flights, it included two new airlines and four widebody jets. Well, so much for the plan...
Hong Kong Sightseeing
After arriving at the Kowloon Station on the Airport Express we took a taxi which dropped us off at the Prudential Hotel only ten minutes later. The 3 star plus hotel is located in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, just above Jordan MTR station. With 90 Euro per night it belongs to the cheaper hotels in the area, but we were absolutely satisfied. Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room, excellent location - what else can you ask for?
Views from the room...
...and the rooftop terrace:
Always a pleasure to walk through the streets of Kowloon:
Hyatt Regency:
Hong Kong Space Museum:
The legendary Peninsula:
Hong Kong's skyline at night is always a great sight:
On the next day we took part in a Gray Line city tour and visited some famous places, e.g. The Peak. The upper terminus station:
The weather was disappointing, but we still enjoyed the views:
Aberdeen Fishing Village:
If you need any souvenirs, you should visit the Stanley Market:
How about some duck after shopping?
Neon lights everywhere:
On the third day we walked down to the waterfront for the last time. Typical Hong Kong street view:
Clock Tower:
Opera House:
Simply stunning skyline:
The 2IFC (Two International Finance Centre) is Hong Kong's second tallest building:
Legend of the Seas at the pier:
We took the Star Ferry to Hong Kong Island and passed the Chinese cargo ship Ming Fen:
This was our ferry, named Solar Star:
We went straight to the IFC complex which also incorporates a huge mall:
The 415-meter-tall 2IFC is an impressive building:
The Bank of China Tower is only the fourth tallest skyscraper in Hong Kong, but probably the most
This is the Jardine House, formerly known as Connaught Centre. It was the city's tallest building between 1972 and 1980:
The recently completed 484-meter-tall International Commerce Centre in West Kowloon is Hong Kong's new number 1:
In the early afternoon we returned to our hotel, checked out and took the train to the airport.
Chek Lap Kok Spotting
After arriving at the airport we went straight to the Regal Airport Hotel where we would spend the last night during our journey. The hotel is directly connected to the terminal by a covered walkway. From the walkway you have good views of the masses of taxis waiting for passengers:
The 5 star hotel is usually quite expensive, but I had been able to find a special offer for about 100 Euro per night. I had read many positive comments about the hotel, so I was expecting a lot. However, the room was quite small and the furniture was not to my taste:
Now it was time to visit the Aviation Discovery Centre at Terminal 2 which also includes the SkyDeck. It is the place to go if runways 25L and 25R are in use - at least for registration spotters. Taking pictures may still be tricky. And btw - you neither find rain/sun shelters nor restrooms up there:
The Regal Airport Hotel:
British Airways 747-400 on approach to runway 25R:
Singapore Airlines A380:
Beautiful evening light:
I got a total of 33 new registrations in less than three hours which was not bad.

More than two hours prior to departure we left the hotel and headed to the terminal. First of all I checked the departures screen, but I couldn't find our flight CA118 to Beijing, originally scheduled to depart at 08:30. I believed that it was a software glitch - a cancellation would be shown on the screen, right? The Air China check-in counters were still closed, so I went to a ticket counter, jointly used by several Chinese carriers, including Air China. I showed the reservation confirmation to a female agent and after a few moments she said: "Your flight to Beijing has been cancelled." Before I could reply anything she continued: "But you have already been rebooked to a Dragonair flight." Now that remark made me very happy because I would get another new carrier - totally unexpectedly!
After finding out it would be the 08:00 departure I knew chances would be good to get an A330-300. When I was searching for Air China flights to MUC back in January I also noticed HKG-PEK code-sharing services operated by Dragonair A330s - but the attractive KA/CA combos were much more expensive (400-500 Euro instead of 290 Euro).
We were told to proceed to the Air China counters where a friendly CA agent with a passenger list was already waiting for us. He asked for our names and invited us to follow him to the Dragonair counters. He briefly talked to the Dragonair agents who immediately started the check-in process. After some ten minutes without any results I asked whether there was a problem, but the agent denied. She kindly accepted my request for a row in the back and we finally received our boarding passes. Seats 48A and B indicated that we would indeed fly on an A330!
20 minutes later we arrived at the gate where B-HYD was being prepared for flight KA900. It's the second oldest A330 in the fleet, built in March 1996:
White fuselage, gray engines:
Friendly flight attendants welcomed us while we were walking to our row. The plane was still equipped with the original interior, but the old-style seats weren't bad at all:
Legroom was sufficient, too:
Water bottles had been placed in each seat pocket - nice service. The cabin was a bit worn out in general, but it had been cleaned well. After boarding was completed, the captain - most likely from Britain - made his welcome speech and informed us about a flying time of 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Parked next to us was sister ship B-HYG:
Dragonair A321 and A320:
Another Dragonair A330 was taxiing in front of us:
Numerous planes were parked in front of the HAECO hangars:
Orient Thai Boeing 747-100 HS-UTM:
Finally the two Trent engines started roaring and we lifted off after a powerful takeoff roll:
Continental 777 parked next to a Kingfisher A330:
Tsing Ma Bridge (to the right) and Ting Kau Bridge:
Countless containers:
12 minutes after takeoff we were cruising under blue skies:
Before serving a hot breakfast the flight attendants passed through the cabin and offered water as well as apple, orange and tomato juice. Some minutes later we could choose between a Western style and a Chinese breakfast. We ordered the former, consisting of an omelette, potatoes, vegetable and fresh fruit:
The breakfast was very tasty and filling - and the tea wasn't bad either. You cannot complain about such a catering on a 2.5 hour flight.
TV features were shown on the overhead screens, but I didn't watch anything. I would have preferred the airshow, of course. Only the six newest A330s in the 13-strong fleet are equipped with personal TV screens in Economy Class.
Later in the flight I took some cabin shots. The load factor in Economy Class was about 85 percent:
The blue skies were soon gone after we had started the approach to Beijing:
The massive Terminal 3...
...was quite deserted shortly after 11:00:
British Airways 777-200ER, Lufthansa 747-400 and Finnair A340-300:
We arrived at the gate four minutes early:
Last shot of B-HYD from the gate area:
I was quite glad that we had arrived at PEK some 30 minutes earlier than originally planned and I was expecting a smooth transfer at the hypermodern Terminal 3...but things were to turn out quite differently.
Story to be continued...
Flying Dragonair was a pleasure: Crew and ground staff members were friendly, the cabin was clean, seats were comfortable. I was also impressed by the catering in terms of quantity and quality. Personal video screens would have been the icing on the cake, but they are not essential on a 2.5 hour flight.
I didn't have a reason to complain about Air China either – we had been rebooked to an earlier flight and an agent was taking care of us until the check-in process at the Dragonair counters was finished.

Joseph Lewis Cunningham
Joseph Lewis Cunningham (1784–1843) or J. L. Cunningham worked as an auctioneer in Boston, Massachusetts, in the first half of the 19th century.[1] Among the many lots he sold were birds, horses, real estate, furniture, sea captains' charts, telescopes, American and European artworks, fishing line, feathers, fabric, guns, musical instruments, fruit trees, flower seeds, printers' equipment, and books.
His business partners included John J. Linzee (Linzee & Cunningham, India Wharf)[2][3] and Lemuel Blake (Blake & Cunningham, "respectable auctioneers and commission merchants").[4][5]
In the early 1820s he conducted his auctioneering from nos. 2-3 Liberty Square; a fire in 1825 forced him to move.[2][6] In 1826 he built Corinthian Hall, at the corner of Milk Street and Federal Street, and used "the first floor of the building for his extensive auction rooms."[7] "Mr. J. L. Cunningham has erected a noble building... where formerly stood the mansion... of Judge Paine. It has a number of fine halls in the second and third stories, and on the lower floor, is a spacious and commodious auction room; adjoining which, on each street, are several neat and elegant shops. The halls will be much wanted, and Mr. Cunningham is entitled to some thanks for thus arranging his costly building to the public convenience and accommodation."[8]
He married three times, in 1807 to Sarah Inman Linzee (1787-1820), in 1821 to Mary Ann Inman (d.1825), and in 1828 to Catherine Amory.[9] He lived in Boston on Somerset Street (c. 1807)[2] and Bedford Street (c. 1823).[10] He attended Trinity Church.[11]
He died in 1843, and was "buried in vault no.32 under old Trinity Church, Boston, afterwards removed to Mt. Auburn cemetery in Cambridge."[12] A trade auction of "books, stereotype plates and stationery, formerly held by J.L. Cunningham" brought in an "amount... unusually large, between 80 and 100,000 dollars."[13]
