Wrapped around the corner of Haight and Steiner in San Francisco's vibrantly eclectic Lower Haight district, effortlessly sheek and washed in light, is our little gem of a business called EDO.
EDO Salon merges fashion, design and art. One part boutique hair salon, one part speakeasy gallery space, we pride ourselves in celebrating the special and personal style in each of our clients. What we are famous for, is our unique culture of organic hair cutting and seamless hair painting techniques.
We carefully chose each stylist with love and spend time to train and refine their eye. Our team knows how to read your head shape, your growth patterns, your texture and your personal style. We work with what naturally will look amazing on you. We will accentuate your best features, whether it be your lips, your cheekbones or your eyes that could stand out more. With color, we can even go as far as to make your skin tone look more fresh and youthful, always rich and beautiful never brassy.
We like to give a nod to the past- from romantic, Victorian styling for weddings, bobs from the 1920's, old Hollywood 1940's glamour, the fabulous beehives, pixies and geometric shapes of the 60's, and to loose,
long waves of the 70's, everything punk from the 80's and our favorite shag of the 90's. That said, we are inspired to keep all of our looks current and seasonal. Our hair heroes are Jane Fonda, Louis Brookes, Mary Quan, and Miss Bridget Bardot.
The best thing about EDO, is that you see an incredible new art installation adorning our walls. We have had it all, from fiber glass boats hanging from our ceiling, to feathers in plastic boxes in our front windows, lite up blown glass installation, silk screened textiles, and countless group shows of painters, photographers and collage artist.

Residents Gather to Take Pledge, Remind Friends and Family No Text is Worth Dying
OAKLAND, Calif., Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Oakland Mayor Jean Quan and Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates launched a competition today to see whose city can get more residents to take a life-saving pledge: "I will never text while driving."
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120612/DA23287LOGO)
Participants will take the pledge on the It Can Wait Drive 4 Pledges Day, September 19, and share their promise with friends and loved ones via Twitter (#ItCanWait) and Facebook.
"Stories of tragedy caused by texting while driving are far too common. We need to take action now to reverse that trend and save lives," said Oakland Mayor Jean Quan at the Oakland Technical High School event. "This is why Oakland and Berkeley are standing together to challenge residents to take the pledge never to text while driving."
Challenge participants in competing cities use a short code to text in their pledge. Participants should text "icwBERK" (Berkeley) and "icwOAK" (Oakland) to 464329# from their mobile device to take the pledge and be counted. Due to city population sizes, four pledges from Oakland equal one from Berkeley.
"Our goal is to save lives," said Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates. "We make our roads safer by spreading awareness of this issue and taking personal responsibility to change our habits. Texting while driving should be as unacceptable as drinking and driving."
The It Can Wait movement is making a difference. One-in-three people who've seen the texting while driving message say they've changed their driving habits1, the campaign has inspired more than 2.5 million pledges never to text while driving and the recently launched "From One Second To The Next" documentary has received more than 2 million views since August 8, 2013.
"Texting while driving is dangerous and deadly. Pledge day is about children asking parents, employers asking employees and friends asking each other not to text and drive," said Ken McNeely, President of AT&T California. "California has more drivers and more road than any state in the nation – the risks from texting while driving are very real and it's up to each of us to live the pledge."
A ConnectSafely.org2 survey found that individuals who speak up can have a profound impact, particularly on teens.
As part of the national campaign, It Can Wait advocates take action by changing their social profile photos and banner to It Can Wait graphics and sharing their personal pledge stories on social media using the hashtag #ItCanWait. All materials such as social graphics and posters are available for download from ItCanWait.com. Participants join AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile US, Inc., Verizon and more than 200 other organizations by sharing their commitment to end texting while driving.
Other events and initiatives across the country include:

Death of Terry Spinks
Last week saw the death of Britain's youngest-ever Olympic gold medalist. Terry Spinks took time off from his job as a dustman in the East End of London to win the flyweight boxing title at the 1956 games in Melbourne at the age of 18.
After a career in the professional ring, he was appointed coach of the South Korean boxing team for the 1972 Munich Olympics, and was the first person to raise the alarm when Palestinian Black September terrorists attacked the Israeli team in the Olympic village. As far as I can see, his passing has gone completely unreported here, though I heard on the BBC that Korea issued a commemorative stamp in his honor at the time. I haven't been able to trace this, and I wonder if any other readers know about it. Michael Duffy

text: Faculty, Staff and Administrators Benefit Too St. John's University's Academic Computing Initiative continues to expand, and students are again the prime beneficiaries. This fall, St. John's is providing students with access to advanced language-learning technology on their laptop computers. An exciting, new web-based program, TELL ME MORE®, is being installed on all incoming freshmen's laptops, which are being distributed at Orientations held throughout the summer. The state-of-the-art software, which is available in nine languages—ESL/English, Spanish (Latin and Castilian), French, German, Italian, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese and Arabic—will also be provided to sophomores, juniors and seniors who might wish to utilize it to enhance their studies. "At St. John's, we are always seeking out new ways to support and enhance our students' academic experience," says Maura Woods, Associate Vice President of Information Technology. "TELL ME MORE® is one more tool that can help them succeed in St. John's competitive academic environment." This latest technology enhancement is intended to complement the language curricula, providing St. John's students with an interactive virtual language laboratory experience, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No longer will they have to visit the language laboratory or wait until it opens to practice their languages skills or participate in language-related activities. It will all be available to them "on demand," whenever and wherever they choose. The "on demand" feature is a most valuable resource for all students, but particularly those enrolled in the University's innovative global programs. While students are learning and serving abroad, TELL ME MORE® can assist them in both their academic and social interactions. Plus, the recent creation of the Vincentian Institute for Social Action (VISA)—which provides an academic platform for students and faculty to address issues of global poverty and social injustice through teaching, research and service—virtually demands that students have the language skills needed to communicate with people around the world. With TELL ME MORE®, international students enrolled at St. John's will be able to access continuous ESL (English as a Second Language) support via their laptops. Students in the University's Distance Learning programs can also take advantage of the language learning software, which is additionally being made available to St. John's faculty, staff and administrators to better prepare them to work with and serve an increasingly diverse student body.Software for the Millennial Student With 2000 hours of content, TELL ME MORE® far surpasses its leading competitor, which offers a mere 150 hours of language-learning material. It also offers three times more activities than any other competitor. The new software also offers: advanced speech recognition software, which will assist students in patterning native speech and reduce accents; complete grammar sections; countless reading and writing exercises; a "cultural workshop"; placement and progress tests to measure students' proficiencies; and an interactive tracking feature that will allow students and faculty to follow the progress being made. "TELL ME MORE® covers all four language skills—reading, writing, speaking and listening—which is more than any other language product I've encountered. It's also the most cost-effective product for University-wide usage," says Millard Yoder, Coordinator of ESL Placement as well as Arabic, German, Hindi, Modern Greek, Portuguese and Russian in the Language and Literature Department of St. John's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Herbert D. Pierson, Ed.D., Professor and Chair of that department, agrees, adding, "TELL ME MORE® is definitely software for the Millennial student." The new language learning software is also intended as the first step in St. John's creation of a Global Language and Cultural Center on its Queens campus. As currently conceived, that center will exist in Council Hall, which will be sectioned into individual language areas where students can experience a particular language and culture through conversation, television broadcasts and other presentations—in essence, become immersed in that language and culture. "It will be place where student-student and student-faculty engagement takes place, enhancing the language learning process," Dr. Pierson explains. As plans for the Center evolve, he sees the potential for increased student involvement.State-of-the-Art Technology Is Hallmark at St. John's TELL ME MORE® joins a plethora of technology innovations that have been introduced with great success at St. John's in recent years. Beginning with personal laptop computers for every freshman, students have additionally benefitted from a dedicated student web portal (St. John's Central), student computer labs, an expanding catalog of online courses, student chat rooms and, most recently, a new Microsoft email system, "Microsoft Outlook Live@edu" that offers HTML, 10 GB of space, spam control, and a 25 GB virtual hard drive that allows for selective file sharing and email collaboration. Additionally, an ongoing institutional commitment to technology has fostered an enhanced learning experience for both students and faculty. From a campus-wide wireless network to the classroom podiums equipped with stereo speakers, DVD and VHS capability; and a wide assortment of classroom software; the student experience at St. John's continues to be decidedly high-tech.

Game HQ hosted a sealed deck Pro Tour Qualifier for Pro Tour Valencia on October 19th, a little more than a month ago. I was privileged to act as Head Judge for the event and I finally got around to writing up coverage of the event. Game HQ is an excellent game store in Oklahoma City that has been running all kinds of Magic tournaments, including Pro Tour Qualifiers, for many, many years. This time around, they moved the event to the Reed Convention Center at the Midwest City Sheraton Hotel. The facility was nice, and more importantly, large. Game HQ was an excellent venue when PTQs were averaging seventy or eighty players, as was the case ten years ago. Today's larger PTQs need more space.
Come try the Magic the Gathering Draft Simulator where you can draft against real people around the world in real-time. Enhance your drafting skills by drafting right from the comfort of your home and be prepared for your next tournament.

The cards themselves are a good quality paper, and very cute. However, the inside reads "Fete d'anniversaire is french for happy birthday" but it's not the right translation, which even my soon-to-be seven year old noticed. It really means "birthday party" which is even more appropriate for the invites. I am all about teaching my child proper spelling and grammar, so I found this upsetting.

Dear Parents of Eureka High School Students and the Eureka City Schools' Community.
Following the recent pellet gun shooting that happened on Thursday, November 7, 2013, I think it is important that I share with you the following facts:
Student safety has been and continues to be my top priority. The serious nature of this incident requires an equally serious response. As such, Eureka High School and the Eureka Police Department are committed to this ongoing investigation.
We need your support in finding the person or persons responsible for this horrific act. Any information you can provide that will lead to the arrest of a suspect will be greatly appreciated. Please contact Eureka High School at 441-2508 or the Eureka Police Department at 441-4060.
Thank you for your ongoing support,
Rick Jordan
Eureka High School

Welcome to the website of the Kunsthaus extension, where you can keep track of the project as it progresses.
Archicultura to appeal further to Administrative Court
After the construction appeals court ruled that the Archicultura Foundation did not have a legitimate interest as a basis for its objection, the Foundation has now decided to appeal to the Administrative Court. The construction team regrets this step, which in all probability will lead to a delay in starting construction work on the Kunsthaus Extension, which was originally planned for the last quarter 2013. The length of the delay as well as financial implications will depend on the legal process accompanying the appeal, and are therefore also impossible to predict with certainty.
Objection to construction dismissed
The construction appeals court has ruled that the sole objector to the construction permit for the Kunsthaus extension does not have a legitimate interest. On 26 July 2013, the construction appeals court of the Canton of Zurich ruled that the Archicultura foundation for townscape and landscape care from Lucerne was not entitled to file an objection to the construction of the Kunsthaus extension, as it had no discernible geographical connection to the project and had failed to demonstrate that it was active throughout the canton. For that reason, its objection would not be considered.
Construction permit granted
At its meeting on 31 May 2013, the construction committee of Zurich City Council approved the construction permit for the Kunsthaus extension. The permit is subject to the customary conditions for projects of this magnitude. Appeals must be lodged within 30 days.
Major donation towards the Kunsthaus extension
The Walter Haefner Foundation is supporting the extension to the Kunsthaus Zürich with a donation of CHF 20 million.
Design plan comes into force
On 31 January 2013, the Canton of Zurich Building Department approved the public design plan for the Kunsthaus extension. It comes into force on 16 March.
Zurich's electorate approved the extension project
The result of the popular vote on 25 November 2012 is a major success for the Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft. The voting figures – 53.9 percent for and 46.1 percent against – represent a clear majority for the idea of a museum for art and audiences in the 21st century.
'The New Kunsthaus. Great Art and Architecture.' An exhibition on the expansion of the Kunsthaus Zürich.
Until to 6 January 2013, the Kunsthaus Zürich is staging a new exhibition revealing what will be on offer to visitors from 2017 in the new extension designed by David Chipperfield Architects.
Founding of Voting Committee
A few days after determining the date of voting (November 25th, 2012) an independent, non-partisan voting committee was formed to promote the Kunsthaus Extension Project. More than 160 people from political, civic, economic and cultural circles support this seminal undertaking and have launched its own website: www.kunsthaus-ja.ch
Public design plan adopted
The public design plan for the Kunsthaus extension project was adopted by a two-thirds majority.
City Parliament approves
With a large majority (79:41) on July 4th Zürich's City Parliament has approved the drafts (financing and design plan) for the extension of the Kunsthaus.
Pre-consulting commission approves
The pre-consulting commission of the City Parliament has approved the city's contribution for the extension of the Kunsthaus. The corresponding decision of the building commission with regard to the design plan was already made two weeks ago.
The Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection comes to the Kunsthaus Zürich
On 28 May 2012 the Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft signed an agreement with the Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection setting out the terms under which some 190 paintings and sculptures are to be made available on long-term loan to the Kunsthaus Zürich. The internationally renowned collection of the industrialist Emil Bührle (1890-1956) is to be exhibited from 2017 in the extension to the Kunsthaus Zürich. This will enable the Kunsthaus to stage the largest assembly of French Impressionist painting in Europe, outside Paris. The new agreement between the Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection and the Zürcher Kunstgesellschaft replaces the agreement in principle drawn up in February 2006 and sets the seal on the intent, declared by the parties at the time, to make the artworks from the Bührle Collection accessible to the public at large in the newly expanded Kunsthaus. In addition to the participatory building credits and subsidies funding the initial expenses, the related income and costs are included in the subsidy requests to the Zurich City Parliament for the Kunsthaus extension project that will be discussed in July 2012.
Kunsthaus Zürich joins forces with Fondation Hubert Looser
An outstanding private collection of modern and contemporary art is coming to the Kunsthaus Zürich, thanks to a new agreement with the Fondation Hubert Looser. Focusing on Abstract Expressionism, Minimal Art and Arte Povera, 70 works will be exhibited in the Kunsthaus extension on long-term loan from 2017, and will ideally complement the museum's own holdings. The Looser Collection is the product of an approach that abjures modish trends, choosing instead to foster dialogues and productive tensions and, in so doing, to enable encounters with art that are replete with new experiences and revelations. This is perfectly in tune with the Kunsthaus Zürich's aim once the extension by David Chipperfield Architects: a dynamic presentation featuring annually changing constellations of works from the Kunsthaus and Looser collections together with thought-provoking juxtapositions of differing genres and formats.
City contribution and layout plan of the Kunsthaus Extension
The city council is filing an application with the municipal council for approval by the voting population requesting an investment contribution of 88 million francs and participation in the covering of non-recurring pre-production costs for the expansion project of 5 million francs. The city council requests a future annual increase of 7,5 million francs in city contributions in order to cover the running costs of the Kunsthaus as of 2017 and to maintain the new addition. Concurrently the city council submits the public layout plan for the building site to the municipal council for deliberation and decision.
The cantonal council approves 30 million and the land parcel
The canton of Zurich supports the extension of the Kunsthaus with 30 million francs. With 154 votes against one, the cantonal parliament has approved the contribution from the lottery fund to the Stiftung Zürcher Kunsthaus. It also provides the necessary building site valued at 15 million Swiss francs available on a leasehold basis for a term of 80 years.
Preliminary design project approved. Vote in 2012. Opening in 2017
The preliminary design project for the extension to the Kunsthaus Zürich is now complete. The design by David Chipperfield's team of architects has assumed its definitive form. The timetable provides for the electorate to vote on the project in 2012, with the Kunsthaus extension opening in 2017. It will create space for a dynamic, regularly changing presentation of the collection of post-1960 art, attractive temporary exhibitions, and the new speciality of French painting and Impressionism.
During the preliminary design project, the basic architectural concept of the winning submission was refined and adapted to meet the needs of its future users. Further details were also added to the timetable and cost estimate for realization of the project. The cost target is CHF 178.8 million.
In line with the recommendations made by the city's structural engineering department, the above-ground and below-ground volume of the new building has been reduced in all its dimensions and the area in front of it facing Heimplatz enlarged, so that the new construction will appear smaller in the context of the urban landscape than was originally envisaged. The Kunsthaus, in its capacity as user/operator, has presented the key points of its business plan. The forecast additional expenditure will be covered by maintaining the existing high level of internal financing (over 50 percent) in combination with the increased subsidy set out in the city of Zurich's cultural mission statement.

Lance Armstrong, who for years vehemently denied cheating while winning a record seven Tours de France, told Oprah Winfrey that he used performance-enhancing drugs to advance his cycling career, according to media reports.
ABC News, the New York Times and USA Today, citing unnamed sources, reported Monday night that the former cyclist finally admitted to using steroids during an interview he and Winfrey taped Monday night in Armstrong's hometown of Austin, Texas.
Armstrong was emotional at times during the session, a source, who was familiar with the interview, told CNN.
The person refused to discuss the specifics of what Armstrong said, including whether he confessed to using performance-enhancing drugs as ABC and USA Today reported.
Armstrong also might pay back part of the money he received from the U.S. Postal Service, which sponsored the cyclist and his team while he was winning six of his Tours de France, the source said.
The source said Armstrong was in negotiations to repay some of the money.
ESPN reported in 2011 that the agency -- which is not tax-payer funded -- paid more than $31 million to sponsor the team during the final four years of its agreement.
A spokeswoman for the postal service said: "We are not in a position now to discuss any of the legal issues associated with these developments and the prior relationship between the U.S. Postal Service and Mr. Armstrong, but we will do so at an appropriate time."
Armstrong won the Tour de France a record seven straight years, beginning in 1999. The postal service sponsored the team from 1996 to 2004.
Tim Herman, one of Armstrong's lawyers, had no comment about the interview.
Winfrey tweeted after the interview: "Just wrapped with @lancearmstrong More than 2 1/2 hours . He came READY!" The interview will be edited down to 90 minutes, Winfrey has said.
"We are not confirming any specific details regarding the interview at this time," a spokesperson for OWN said Monday night.
The disgraced cycling legend earlier apologized to the staff of the cancer charity he started, a publicist for Livestrong Foundation said.
Armstrong was tearful during the 15-minute meeting and didn't address the issue of steroid use in cycling, Rae Bazzarre, director of communications for the foundation, said.
Bazzarre added that Armstrong offered to the staff a "sincere and heartfelt apology for the stress they've endured because of him."
He urged them to keep working hard to help cancer survivors and their families.
Armstrong's sit-down in his hometown of Austin, Texas, with Winfrey was his first interview since he was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles in October in a blood-doping scandal.
For more than a decade, Armstrong has denied he used performance-enhancing drugs, but he was linked to a doping scandal by nearly a dozen other former cyclists who have admitted to doping.
What Armstrong said or did not say to Winfrey could have ramifications.
Some media outlets have reported that Armstrong has been strongly considering the possibility of a confession, possibly as a way to stem the tide of fleeing sponsors and as part of a long-term redemptive comeback plan.

Airbus UK
Airbus UK uses Flowmaster, 1D fluid system, to provide fast and accurate results that help them to focus on critical rig testing before flight testing commences.
"Flowmaster is a design tool used by our engineers on a daily basis to investigate the fluid mechanics of the fuel system. It helps us understand how changes to the fuel system design will affect performance, and the simulation results are frequently used in conjunction with test results in certification reports for the fuel system."
Airbus uses Flowmaster for optimization of Fuel Systems
product overview: Flowmaster is a 1D general purpose CFD solution for thermo fluid system engineers to model and analyze the fluid mechanics and pipe flow in complex systems.
The Problem
Optimization of Fuel System in accordance with strict aviation requirements Airbus needed to design a fuel system that not only kept a constant supply of fuel to their Rolls Royce Trent R553s turbo fans, but also, amongst other things, ensured fuel optimization and managed the aircraft's center of gravity. This had to be done whilst ensuring compliance with strict aviation design requirements.
The Solution
Flowmaster has enabled Airbus UK to exceed its design requirements and meet critical project milestones Flowmaster software enabled Airbus to ensure that systems performed as intended and helped them to evaluate how design changes impacted on other areas of the system. Airbus relies on Flowmaster to provide fast and accurate results that help them to focus on critical rig testing before flight testing commences.
The Results
Confidence in Flowmaster performance has been verified by a comparison of model, rig and aircraft tests As well as the A340-500, Airbus UK has applied its extensive expertise to optimize its fuel system design processes, which is also proving invaluable on current programs such as the A380, A400m and A350. Airbus has reduced the risks associated with system development, and has provided an environment which allows rapid and early assessment of fluid mechanical performance.
Airbus UK
Airbus is the world's leading aircraft manufacturer whose customer focus, commercial know-how, technological leadership and manufacturing efficiency have propelled it to the forefront of the industry.
Airbus' modern and comprehensive product line comprises highly successful families of aircraft ranging from 107 to 525 seats: the single-aisle A320 Family, the wide-body long-range A330/A340 and the all-new next generation A350 XWB Family, and the ultra long-range, double-decker A380 Family. The company also continues to broaden its scope and product range by applying its expertise to the military market. It is as well extending its portfolio of freighter aircraft that will set new standards in the general and express freight market sectors.
Across all its fly-by-wire aircraft families Airbus' unique approach ensures that aircraft share the highest possible degree of commonality in airframes, on-board systems, cockpits and handling characteristics, which reduces significantly operating costs for airlines. http://www.airbus.com

The next time you pause to watch TV -- anything from the morning news to a prime time drama -- try an experiment: Watch the show in its entirety without interacting with another device.
That means no checking email, no texting, Tweeting, pinning, visiting Facebook or hunting for spoilers. No unlocking your smartphone every 60 seconds or casually flipping through content on your tablet or e-reader. (And if you're one of the reported 2.65 million whom The Convergence Consulting Group found ditched TV subscriptions for the Web between 2008 and 2011, resist the urge to open a new tab in your browser, just to play along.)
For many of us, that's far less intuitive than it sounds. Our mobile devices have not only given us a new option when deciding where to watch a favorite show, but they've also changed the way we experience TV. Whereas we simply watched one screen in the era of "The Cosby Show," some of us would be at a loss if we couldn't have our laptops out while also viewing "Modern Family."
Having that "second screen" -- the common phrase for a mobile device used while watching a TV program -- can make us feel like we're being more productive, but it can also broaden our viewing experience. We can figure out what song that "X Factor" contestant performed by searching for lyrics, read a live blog that breaks down issues during a political debate and be vastly entertained by the communal digital snark that erupts while watching reality TV.
Nielsen reports that during the second quarter of 2012, 86 percent of tablet owners and 84 percent of smartphone owners in the United States said they used their second screen of choice while simultaneously watching TV at least once during a 30-day period.
But for 41 percent of tablet owners and 39 percent of those owning smartphones, that multitasking is more like once a day, at a minimum.
Our attachment to our mobile devices during TV time isn't surprising, least of all to the digital strategists at the networks creating what we view.
Some of them, too, have noticed their own propensity to have another device close by while watching TV, which caused them to notice something else: An opportunity.
Major broadcast networks and cable programmers alike are tinkering around with what they can offer a second screen captivated audience, as are companies like GetGlue, Miso, Yap.tv and Yahoo's! IntoNow.
While those latter services are focusing on creating opportunities for engagement across a wide spectrum of shows to serve TV's fan bases, networks are zeroing in on how they can take advantage of their insider knowledge to keep users interacting with them on those inescapable second screens. (Rather than using them for, say, emailing, which Nielsen in a 2011 report found 61 percent of tablet owners were doing while also watching a TV show.)
That's why TV fans are frequently coming across applications pegged as "second screen experiences" -- downloadable environments where viewers can often interact with and learn more about what they're watching on TV, in some cases syncing the application with the TV show.
The second screen seems to work particularly well with live events, as well as reality programming, sporting events and news. For example, Albert Cheng, chief product officer and the executive vice president of digital media for Disney/ABC Television, said ABC saw success with their Backstage Pass app for the Oscars, which offered "all-access" to viewers above and beyond what they could see at any one time on their television screens.
So if you were a fan of 2012's best supporting actress winner Octavia Spencer, Cheng said, "You followed her nomination, you followed her through the red carpet, and when you saw her on TV get her Oscar ... with your iPad or computer, you could see her walk down the winners walk and (be interviewed.) ... As a fan, you felt as though you were with her all the way through."
But while the Oscars or the recent Republican debates -- for which ABC News worked with IntoNow to create polls that allowed viewers to interact with the verbal sparring -- provide a fairly natural fit, scripted programming has been trickier. Even before you break down the difference between creating a second screen experience around a half-hour comedy versus a detailed hour-long drama, there's the delicate balance between providing content that's engaging and worthwhile to the viewer while not annoying them or pulling them out of the storyline.
Yet with so many viewers intent on using a second screen while watching TV, what's a showrunner to do? Networks are in the midst of experimenting, but a few refrains are starting to emerge: Know your audience, less really is more, and above all else, keep the content king.
"People are getting better and better all the time at multitasking, that's a truism. But that said, I think people want to lose themselves in television," said David Wertheimer, Fox's president of digital media. "Television and feature films are fundamentally about suspension of disbelief and getting into the moment, and you do have to be careful not to take them out of that."
While Fox has created second screen apps around properties like "So You Think You Can Dance," with plenty of creative input this season from executive producer and judge Nigel Lythgoe, the process varies from show to show.
Generally, Wertheimer said, the digital side will get input from a writer to construct an app, with its scripted shows focusing on more "lightweight material." The network's freshman hit "New Girl," for example, has a companion app that includes polls about relationships, a breakdown of the curious sayings of Max Greenfield's breakout character Schmidt, and the option to audio sync the app with the show as you're watching it, of course.
"You want to give people sharable moments. You want to give people little bits that help them engage deeper with the show and the ability to drill deeper on their own time when the show's not on. It's not really about inundating them with stuff. That's one of the mistakes that many, many people have made in the second screen world," Wertheimer said.
ABC learned its own valuable lessons on the integration of scripted programming and the second screen experience with "Grey's Anatomy," one of the network's biggest series. After taking a swing with a second screen app for 2010's swiftly canceled "My Generation," the network wanted to test the technology with the more stable "Grey's."
Creator Shonda Rhimes was "very, very gung-ho" about the app, and the network had two writers on her staff write the concept. "She was very excited about the technology and her fans were (too)," Cheng said.
But the pesky problem of a distracted audience was a deal breaker. While watching the show, "when there was (related) content there was an audio cue, (so) you look down, you read the content module," Cheng explained. But that meant "I'd answer the question, and I'd look up, and I'd miss a key scene. With that specific application, viewers expressed that it actually distracted them from the storyline and narrative. For a showrunner, then, it became very apparent that it's not helping as much as we'd like it to. The hardest thing for me was to actually sit down with Shonda and say, 'Hey this is great, but guess what, your viewers told us it was kind of distracting and they couldn't follow the scenes."
Without a clamoring demand for additional content to supplement scripted programming, Cheng concluded that energy is better spent on continuing to create social buzz.
"I think it's great for everyone to be experimenting now, but our opinion at this point here, after having done the experiments, we want our showrunners focused on creating great shows," Cheng said.
At AMC, home to critic- and fan-adored shows like "The Walking Dead" and "Breaking Bad," they're continuing to eye ways to do both with their Story Sync second screen experience.

Tifosi Lust Sunglasses
What do the interchangeable sunglasses include? Tifosi Optics offers three interchangeable lens systems: Standard, Golf and Polarized. Standard systems come with Smoke or Brown, AC Red and Clear. Some Standard systems also come with Yellow lenses. Golf systems come with GT, EC and AC Red lenses. Polarized systems come with one Brown or Smoke Polarized lens, AC Red and Yellow. What is UV protection? Is lens color important? AC (All conditions) Red lenses offer an enhanced view in cloudy or foggy weather. AC red lenses provide contrast in mid to low lighting conditions. The GT (Golf/Tennis) lens has a greenish smoke tint that is known for its object illumination properties. This lens enhances the wearer's ability to pick up a ball in flight. The EC (extreme contrast) lens is ideal for situations where high contrast is a must, such as when reading greens on the golf course or picking up the lines of a single track. This purple lens filters out the hazy blue light spectrum that is responsible for optical blurring and distortion. |

No recipe here just a comment and question.
While helping some buddies butcher their deer this past week, they immediately ground their venison. I normally just package everything then thaw and grind.
Anyway I noticed they mix their venison with Boneless beef chuck roast, they mixed about 3/4 venison to 1/4 beef. They feel that there is enough fat in the beef and they also say they like using the beef, thats the way they always have done it.
When I grind mine for burgers I always used pork. Its now got me wondering if beef is the way to go or should I continue using pork?
I want to preserve the venison flavor but also obviously want sufficent fat to moisten it all.
What type of beef (chuck,fat, ground etc..) or what type of pork (pork fat, ground pork, pork butt, etc,) do you use? and what is the venison to pork/beef ratio do you feel is best.

I keep waiting to see if this will happen. SLL grew on me, and Spector has a bit so I'm open to the possibility that Cy-Chop will, but every time I look at him it sure doesn't seem to be happening .
If anything will do it, it will be the Pixel Dan review.
It is spelled "Crita", not "Critta". Misspell her name and Crita will knock the "T" out of you!
Also...get her into the line!
Avatar from http://melaniegracey.deviantart.com/...ster-400665929
I actually chose Castle Grayskull man and this is how I decided...
Draego-Man: This should not be here cause the Horsemen are just PURE GOLD!!! We knew they would blow us out the box, so this should just be considered a MOTU character from jump! But he would be my pick before the other 4 as I will explain why I've also excluded Photog...
Photog: He was long overdue so I consider him a 80's line (unmade figure)
So now we have the remaining 4 which are in a sense pure original and seem to really need to fit into this line more than the others.
Spector: what hasn't been said, but at this point with a recoloring and slight edit of his bio, I'm happy with his concept!
Sir Lazer Lot: It's definitely a He-Man type, just execution in color scheme and bio, make it just ok.
Cy-Chop: For all who like him... SORRY! It's Just Bad! But this is my personal opinion and I'll leave it with; I'm still getting 6 of him.
Castle Grayskullman: With slight mods to the bio, I am DIGGING IT! Love the design, concept and if they fix the hair color.... BULLSEYE!!!
I thought of it as whacky at first, but it grew on me and the potential for his story is and can be EPIC!!!
'Tis the wind and nothing more.....
Fearless Photog for me. He's the only one out of the bunch I have and I don't plan on getting any of the others. He's one of the absolute tightest figures I've ever gotten.
"There's only one Master of the Universe and it's He-Man." - Stephen Colbert
"The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing." - Blaise Pascal
Draego-Man, without a doubt!
Chroniklor, the Heroic Keeper of Eternian Myths, Legends and Lore.
Draego Man is my choice clearly but the others aren't so bad after all.
Photog, for certain! I love him.
After that: Spector, SLL, Draego, Cy-Chop, and CGM.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Jungle Attack He-Man in Classics!
I voted Grayskull Man. Photog second. In order of liking their looks and how they would fit in to my personal mythology, and I respect their fan-made history. I'll probably end up buying Grayskull Man.
Another vote for Spector! This is going to sound bad, but I got into MOTUC late, and after I had my first "wave" of figures in the mail from eBay, I realised he was the figure I was most looking forward to finding when I checked the mail each day. I think he really works as an action figure, and I love the new dimension he adds to the mythos.
1: Drag-O-Win (Draego-Man)
2: Fearless Photog
3: Grayskull Guard (Castle Grayskullman -WITH A Help Of Commercial)
4: Laser Bot (Yeah.... It's Bot ! Not Lot !!)
Spector & Cy-Chop are "kicked" out of my collection !!!
Fearless Photog is easily my favorite. An original design that fits the MotU, plus it finally satisfied Mattel's obligation for the 80's. I love seeing things that were promised finally make it to collectors.
Castle Grayskullman is a very cool design. He'd be my #1 if it wasn't for Photog. I wish the other 30th figures were as well put together as him.
Draego-man is cool looking, but a dragon-man is a painfully obvious choice. So no points for originality there.
The Mighty Spector, Sir Lazer-Lot and Cy-Chop are just terrible. Lazy parts choice, poor color scheme, and they don't look like they fit. Fail.
Draego-man of course.
Castle Grayskullman just called me and said he was picking Spector's bones out of his filmation length canine teeth. Said he felt like having asian food next, better warn Cy-Chop.......
In a week or two, when I have all the 30th's, I'll vote on this poll. Is CGM as awesome as they say? We will see. As of right now...
1. Cy-Chop (after hand swaps)
2. Draego-Man
3. Spector (does not grow on you)
things are looking bad for sir laser lot
Sales say CGM. Sold out twice this month. Draego-Man was still avail long after the wraith golem disappeared again.
I voted for Sir Lazer Lot. It's hard to articulate, but I love that figure. Which is funny since I wasn't crazy about him when he was first revealed.
I love the blue and red color scheme. Yes it evokes Superman, and I'm fine with that. A belt would have broken the blue up a bit, but I'm still fine with him as is.
I love the sleek look the character has. He's just a knight who uses a sword and shield; very simple and elegant. It doesn't get much more sword and sorcery than that.
He-Man = Heroic Barbarian
Sir Lazer Lot = Chivalrous Knight
Skeletor = Evil Sorcerer
Next up for me would be Draego Man, but he lack a bit of poseability due to the tail and wings.
Then it would be
3. Castle Grayskull Man
4. Spector
5. Cy-Chop
All figures I love.
I still think Fearless Photog is one of the ugliest dumbest designs in the entire franchise, and the desire for that figure completely eludes me, such a stupid character.
Which of the Six 'new' figures is your favorite?
Dear Mattel, Please remember you are one of the biggest toy companies on the planet, So hows about making toys people want and NOT Excuses.
Draego Man for me. Castle Grayskull Man is pretty awesome too. We finally got the swords on the Castle Grayskull flag. Dare I say that The Mighty Spector and Sir Laser Lot are growing on me?
My feedback thread:http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...d.php?t=204997
There was something very right about Photog being released finally. I love his retrotech look. Dragoman was beautiful, but Photog really is a classic.
Signed by-- ME!
Did I ever grow up? Probably not. I'm sure the day-glo socks gave it away anyway.
Even though I started the Poll...I cant vote yet as CGM hasnt arrived in Australia yet!...
...But I think I'll end up voting Draego. I Really Like Photog in hand, and If it wasnt for the stupid 'Spade' Spector would have a chance at being my fave, Cy Chop is fun in person...but the scissors are too 'Hyper Anime' (ie I HATE them)
But The worst,most ugly, boring and altogether biggest waste of plastic in my MOTUC Collection is Loser Lot!
Hope fully Ill receive CGM this week and can look at them all together!
Dear Mattel, Please remember you are one of the biggest toy companies on the planet, So hows about making toys people want and NOT Excuses.
