It's my favourite book in the series. But I don't have high expectations for the movies, thus making me more easily satisfied than the others. (I tend to like the movie more than my li'l sis cos' I don't whine and moan about them not being faithful adaptations)

Dunno how they are going to show the veelas. I have a hard time imagine how they are like from reading the book.
Find the hottest supermodels around the world.

all along I though it would be better if they shot 2 movies, there's jsut too much in the book to be cramp in to a single movie the lenght of it's predessesors..
Unless they make this one extra long..
Anyway Veelas is easy...
what about that french head mistress?
though the movie hargid is not as big as the book's, it's still quite hard to find an actress that dun look small next to Hagrid
of course they COULD always cast a man in the role..
It is not the problem of not being able to find hot girls to play the veelas. There are enough hot actresses out there to play these enchantresses.Originally Posted by Eliar Swiftfire
I'm just wondering how they r going to potray the veelas as described in the book.
Veela were women. . . the most beautiful women Harry had ever seen. . . except that they weren't - they couldn't be - human. This puzzled Harry for a moment while he tried to guess what exactly they could be; what could make their skin shine moon-bright like that, or their white-gold hair fan out behind them without wind.. . but then the music started, and Harry stopped worrying about them not being human - in fact, he stopped worrying about anything at all.
The veela had started to dance, and Harry's mind had gone completely and blissfully blank. All that mattered in the world was that he kept watching the veela, because if they stopped dancing, terrible things would happen.
me too, i don't have my hopes too high for this 4th installment because im disappointed with the 3rd installment. now i would rather prefer if they make this into 2 parts. at least they don't rush the whole installment. i think what they did in the 3rd installment (cutting off many many parts) is not a very good choice
currently watching: best selling secrets (tvb), the money-maker recipe (tvb), forensic heroes 2 (tvb), super trio supreme (tvb)
i, personally enjoyed all three movies so far. . .i read the books first. . .though some parts in the books were definately important and shouldn't be cut. . .it was necessary so the audience doesnt need to sit through a ten hour movie.
also, i usually watch a movie to enjoy it instead of critique it, so its probably why i like them. seriously, dont know why people would pay money so they could criticize something.
Some of us needs to learn how to get our priorities straight and others need to start getting some priorities. . .
I have news you guys. First the girl who would play Fleur Delacour is a french actress who has nude pictures in the net. Her name is Clemence Poensy ( the right spelling?) she starred as Queen Mary of Scots in a hallmark tv movie. She's 21 years old , so it means that the rumor that Kate Winslet is goint to play Fleur's character is not true. The guy who would play Cedric Diggory is a british actor, I forgot his name but I got a pic of him. I'll just get back here soon as soon as I recall his name. Ralph Fiennes will play Voldemort (now that would really be exciting) and Katie Leung will play Cho Chang. I haven't seen the pic of the Bulgarian actor who'll play Krum. I've burned a lot of Internet Hours just to see a pic of him but I have not. Istav Yvaneski ( i hope I'm right with the spelling, faulty memory, I researched it a long time ago-sorry).
YAY. It's coming out in (pause) 3 years It's still a long time.
Meh. I'm gonna get addicted to something else (not drugs)
Heavy sword with blunt edges, simplicity brings superiority. Before I reached the age of forty, I used it to roam the entire world under Heaven. (Dugu Seeking-A-Loss)
After the age of forty, I no longer relied on weaponry. Even bushes, trees, bamboo sticks or rocks call all be my swords. From then on, I achieved great progress and slowly reached the realm of overcoming the sword without a sword.(Dugu Seeking-A-Loss)
the movies arn't that good compared to the books.
cho chang is supposed to be pretty but the actor isn't.
have a feeling it would suck.
i didn't even notice katie leung(who plays cho)in the movie.....
Have u seen Katie Leung in movies or in person? Or u just based your opinion on that 2 widely circulated pictures of hers? Maybe those are just badly taken pictures. I personally felt Katie Leung looks OK. I have only just started reading book 5, but have completed book 4 already. Throughout book 4, I never get the impression that Cho Chang was suppose to be very pretty. Only Harry thinks she is pretty, but then Harry was infatuated with her and beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.Originally Posted by bebe_girl
Of course the movies will not be as good as the books. The movies have a time limit of 3 hours, while books can be as long and as think as the author likes. Of course the books will be more detailed and eventful than the movies. The movies can only get the gist and feel of the books.

I don't think Katie Leung is in movie 3. The chosen candidates for the role of both Cedric and Cho Chang were only announced after the movie 3 was released. The actor who is chosen to play Cedric is not the same actor who played Cedric in movie 3.Originally Posted by Mysterious
I've always thought that Cho is supposed to be very pretty, and not just in the eyes of Harry. Cedric is described as quite a handsome boy and he liked her too.Originally Posted by kidd
well when you finished the fifth book you'll know.
all the guys likes her because she's pretty.
katie is decent(choosing my words carefully) looking but definitely not pretty.
yeah i based it on her photos, she doesn't have a nice nose or lips.

>thanks,pal!i thought she was supposed to be in the third movie(according to the book,she's playing against Gryffindor in quidditch!).....so i was when i didn't c her...ahahhhaOriginally Posted by kidd
ps-i heard that katie leung got the role cuz her father has connections.....

Live Fish Cam Fish Ladder FAQs I'm trying to gauge the size of the fish that swim through the window. What are the dimensions of the window? The viewing window is 5.5 feet tall by 3 feet wide. The bolts you see in the background are approximately 8 inches apart. When is the fish census/monitoring conducted? The heaviest months of the fish census are during the spring migration season, during April, May and June. How many species of fish are in the river? Aquatic biologists have recorded 24 species of fish passing through the fish ladder. What are the most common species found and recorded? The following species make up approximately 75% of what has been seen in the ladder:
In addition to fish, biologists have seen and recorded a muskrat, several turtles and snakes. Also, in the spring of 2005, a river otter was spotted making his way through the ladder to feed upstream. You can watch a video clip of the river otter here. Can I fish at or near the ladder? No. Fishing within 100 feet of the fish passage facility (the ladder and surrounding area) is strictly prohibited. This is for the protection and conservation of the wild fish swimming upstream through the ladder. The PA Fishing Commission and the Philadelphia Police Department patrol the area regularly and will issue fines to violators. Can I park at the fish ladder access lane on West River Drive? No. Parking is prohibited in this area, and you will be ticketed. Can I visit the Fish Ladder? We're sorry, but apart from pre-scheduled educational events, the public is not allowed on the grounds around the Fish Ladder due to State and City regulations. I noticed that the webcam isn't working, or not currently available. Why? Sometimes we perform maintenance on the camera and the system. At these times, the system is shut down. We also do not normally operate the fish cam during winter months. Have more questions about the Fish Ladder? If you want to know more about the Fish Ladder at Fairmount Dam, we suggest you visit the Fish Ladder exhibit at the Fairmount Water Works Interpretive Center. Top of Page |

Fall in love with Burmese food
Eating does not usually pose a challenge to me. I'm a food writer by trade, with the appetite of a dozen varsity shot putters combined. It's my job to eat and to know about what I'm eating, but I was having a hard time in Burma.
The problem wasn't that I found Burmese food unappetizing - far from it. I'm smitten by the flavors of curries, chilies, shallots and seeds, all of which make frequent appearances in Burmese cooking. The issue was that I was completely overwhelmed. Standing streetside in an early-morning market on my first day in Yangon, surrounded by vendors hawking strange spices, fantastical vegetables and prehistoric-looking fish, I'd never felt more unfamiliar with a style of food in my life.
So I spent the next two weeks methodically eating my way across the country, prowling produce markets, following the crowds to skilled street vendors and talking to the ultra-friendly locals about everything edible. It was hardly long enough to understand to all of the complexities of the cuisine, but by the end, I'd learned enough to finally feel a tiny bit at home.
Whether you're planning a trip of your own or just armchair traveling, here's what you need to know about Burmese food.
Curries and rice
Rice is the cornerstone of the Burmese diet, and one of the most common meal formats in Burma involves a buffet-like display of rice, curried meat, soup, chili dipping pastes, fresh and blanched vegetables (to dip in the chili paste) and more - all intended to be mixed and matched at will. Curries are rarely spicy and often involve an inch-thick layer of oil on top, which is an important part of the cooking process. There's no pressure to actually eat the oil; simply spoon the meat onto your plate and enjoy.
Not of the Caesar variety. Salads in Burma, called thoke, are hand-mixed combinations of raw and fresh ingredients, often bound together by oil, roasted seeds or nuts, fried garlic, sliced shallots and lime. The principal ingredient can be almost anything: fruit, vegetable, fish or meat. But look especially for renditions featuring sliced ginger root, the sprightly local green called pennywort or the fermented green tea leaves called laphet.
Noodles abound in Burma, and they're usually eaten as breakfast or a midday snack in between meals. In the morning, you'll find the ubiquitous mohinga, which is fish soup with thin rice noodles, banana stem and crispy fried bean fritters. Also keep an eye out for oh no khao swe (egg noodles and torn chicken in a silky coconut milk sauce), and sticky Shan-style rice noodles slathered in a rich tomato-pork-peanut gravy, known simply as "Shan khao swe."
Tea Shops
Tea shops are an integral part of daily life across Burma. In the early morning and early evening, groups gather at tea shops to drink, snack and socialize, often for hours on end. A thermos of clear Chinese-style tea comes standard at every table to drink in between cups of milk tea, made heady with a thick pour of sweetened condensed milk. Snacks are either brought to your table automatically or ordered a la carte, and might include sweet sesame seed cakes, fried samosas and crullers or steamed Chinese-style dim sum.
Street Snacks
There's a deep culture of snacking in Burma, and the streets of Yangon and Mandalay are filled with grab-and-go vendors dispatching everything from Indian-style roti flatbreads to jiggly neon-hued jelly sweets. The Burmese are particularly well-versed in the art of deep frying, as evidenced by the profusion of fritters, pakoras, samosas and battered bananas that all take a whirl in the oil bath.

Maryland's 20 best beers [Pictures]
Rating the state's top 20 bottled and canned brews, just in time for Baltimore Beer Week
-- By Sam Sessa, Jordan Bartel and Wesley Case

Maryland's best beers
Five years ago, this would have been a much shorter list.
It's hard to believe how fast Maryland's brewing scene has grown -- from upstarts like Evolution to veteran brands such as Flying Dog. In a few months, you'll start to see cans from our latest addition, Union Craft Brewing. What better time to be a local beer lover? With Baltimore Beer Week just around the corner, we sampled about 50 Maryland bottled and canned beers, looking for the most all-around appealing IPAs, porters, pale ales and more. Granted, there are plenty more local brews available on tap -- most notably Oliver Ales -- but we kept this list to beers you can find in stores. We're no beer snobs, but we do love a good brew. Especially one from Maryland. Here's a toast to 20 of the state's best. |

Flu or Cold Symptoms?
When you wake up sneezing, coughing, and have that achy, feverish, can't move a muscle feeling, how do you know whether you have cold symptoms or the flu?
It's important to know the difference between flu and cold symptoms. A cold is a milder respiratory illness than the flu. While cold symptoms can make you feel bad for a few days, flu symptoms can make you feel quite ill for a few days to weeks. The flu can also result in serious health problems such as pneumonia and hospitalizations.
What are common cold symptoms?
Cold symptoms usually begin with a sore throat, which usually goes away after a day or two. Nasal symptoms, runny nose, and congestion follow, along with a cough by the fourth and fifth days. Fever is uncommon in adults, but a slight fever is possible. Children are more likely to have a fever with a cold.
With cold symptoms, the nose teems with watery nasal secretions for the first few days. Later, these become thicker and darker. Dark mucus is natural and does not usually mean you have developed a bacterial infection, such as a sinus infection.
Several hundred different viruses may cause your cold symptoms.

Rouchon Industries Inc., d/b/a/ Swiftech today announced the withdrawal from US sales of the H220 CPU cooling kit. On June 7 2013, Rouchon Industries Inc., d/b/a/ Swiftech received a letter from Asetek' s lawyers claiming that the H220 CPU cooler infringes on their US patents 8,240,362 (the '362 patent) and 8,245,764 (the '764 patent) and to cease selling, offering for sale and importing the H220 CPU cooler in the United States. Pending final disposition of this matter, Swiftech immediately placed a hold on shipments of the H220 CPU cooling kits into the USA. On June 27, 2013 Swiftech's counsel responded to Asetek' s attorney by a letter stating that preliminarily, Swiftech does not believe that the H220 product infringes any valid claim of the '362 and '764 patents. Nonetheless, in an effort to avoid any unnecessary litigation Swiftech also asked whether Asetek would be willing to offer a nonexclusive license for the asserted patents. On July 12, 2013 Swiftech received a response from Asetek' s law firm stating that the company does not offer licenses. Swiftech continues to firmly assert its position with regards to the alleged infringement as stated in its letter dated June 27, 2013. Nevertheless, in order to avoid litigation the company's management has now made the business decision to withdraw the H220 CPU cooler from the US market. Given these circumstances, Swiftech wants to hereby reassure its US customers that: 1/ it will continue to provide full technical and warranty support for the H220 CPU cooling kits that have been sold in the US, and 2/ the product will continue to be sold in other countries. Swiftech sincerely apologizes to its US customers for this extraordinary situation, the very first in its long history. For the past 15 years, Swiftech has been at the forefront of technological innovation in this industry, and it will continue to do so. In the words of Gabriel Rouchon, the company's Chairman and CTA: "I want our customers to know and expect with absolute confidence that Swiftech's resourcefulness will once again be brilliantly demonstrated in the immediate future."
There will be a lot more of this, anyone using a pump/block combo will infringe on these patents. Swiftech knows they infringe on the patents, otherwise they wouldn't have rolled over so quickly. Asetek is in the right here, but they should allow licensing, and I believe is someone went to court about it Asetek would be forced to give reasonably priced licenses.
I hope CM Seidon puts up a better fight. It's a very nice Asetek alternative. It would be a shame if US buyers lost that too. SilverStone was pretty vocal in claiming that its new Tundra kits don't step on Asetek's toes. Hope that stays, too.
My guess is CoolIT will be the one to put up the fight. We'll see about the CM Seidon, Asetek started the lawsuit process against them in March, and that unit is an obvious rip-off of Asetek products, I even thought it was Asetek made when I saw it.
Screw competition! Free market? Hahaha!! Perhaps Mercedes Benz should start suing over the automobile. We'd all be driving Benz's around here!
It makes me wonder how anyone can these days even make or invent anything if every friggin thing in this world is already patented and protected in one or another way. It totally sucks. Big stand alone things, fine. But these days, they patent mouse clicking and breathing (almost), so how can you go beyond if they cover even the basics which are almost always needed to achieve something greater?
I have no idea if they knew they were infringing on patents, put the expense of litigation might explain "rolling over".
Coolermaster have been making AIO coolers for a very long time (not many were very good though). I can't see how they don't hold patents for AIO solutions. I had an Aquagate viva back in 2007, way before Astek released anything on the market. Asetek are behaving like patent bullies. There is no way they came up with the idea of AIO coolers.
I don't see why people are upset. Asetek has a right to protect its patents and sue if need be. These aftermarket AIO are being made/designed overseas where copyright laws aren't as strict or ignored and then being shipped to US market. If other regions dis-reguard your claim on a patent why wouldn't you protect it in a region/country where your patent is recognized. Makes perfect sense unless you like loosing money that otherwise would be yours.
The claim Asetek is making has nothing to do with the idea of AIO liquid cooling, their claims are based on the idea of combining the pump and waterblock into one unit. As far as I've seen they were the first to demonstrate and begin the process to patent this idea way back in 2003. And Asetek has been producing AIO liquid coolers for OEMs since at least 2005. The HP Blackbird was the first real consumer level product to see an AIO unit from Asetek, and it came out in 2007, but they had been doing AOI units for workstation and server class computers for a least 2 years before that.
I am all for patents in some situations. However in this instance I am against it as it stifles competition in this product area (one that has grown rapidly as of late). One thing I found attractive about Swiftech's H220 is the ability to add to the loop (expandability). This is not a feature that I have seen with any other AIO water cooling solutions. So with Asetek having the patent then we can only rely on them for what they produce (or don't produce).
As I've said, that is why licensing exists. The system is set up to not allow one company to hold a monopoly. Asetek might refuse licensing at first, but once one(or a few) company(s) actually takes the issue to court Asetek will have to allow licensing at a reasonable cost. If neither party can agree on a reasonable cost then the courts can decide that too. At this point, no company has to stop producing coolers that Asetek claims infringes on the patents. They can let Asetek take them to court, they would lose, but at the same time they could get the courts to rule that Asetek has to allow licensing. It is just going to take a company to actually do it and not just role over. In fact, more than likely the other companies Asetek has already sued(like CoolIT) have already settled out of court for some relatively small sum(compared to what they've made on the products so far) as well as a continuing licensing fee. We just haven't heard anything about it because no one really talks about out of court settlements and a lot of times a condition of the settlement is that you don't talk about it. I mean, Asetek sued CoolIT almost a year ago, and we haven't heard anything come of it, likely because they settled out of court a while ago and CoolIT continued on making AIO coolers.
To be fair to you, my other post about licensing was in the other thread, and the post in this thread was a small easily missed single line.
Asetek may be completely in the right under current law, but one could question if the laws might need revision. I don't know enough to say if Asetek is abusing the patent laws but other companies have. It could be even that the real patent trolls are so prevalent that any company using the patent laws seems like a patent troll whether or not they are.
We do not offer licensing because we want a monopoly. Lets sue them for breaking our patents which we don't license. Patenting something very general and fundamental is very questionable and most of the time illegal. You are obliged to license it at "reasonable" fee. Haha same. Wouldn't have been surprising because of all the problems with this kit.
Patent Trolls, Patent Trolls, we are Patent Trolls... Negotiation is irrelevant, you will be Trolled. Resistance is futile. In truth Swiftech kit is quite OK, but CM Eisberg Prestige trounces everything from Asetek. Asetek are simply pissed off at the competition. Euphemism "patent infringement" is just smoke screen. Thinking at the Asetek HQ is: sales dropping we should troll somebody for lost 'profits'.
Id hardly say sales are dropping a lot of Antec, Corsair - even the AIO that comes with the AMD FX line is made by Asetek (afaik they are even making some TT AIO's though they might deny it, the design is similar) I wouldnt say sales are dropping
Seems to me, based on this statement, that Swiftech may already have a plan and would rather spend their money on deploying it rather than feeding lawyers/putting their profits into Asetek's pocket.
Surely the all in one pump/block cannot be copyrighted, only the design/internals. Maybe Swiftech has a plan so cunning you could put a tail on it, and call it a weasel.
They pulled out quickly because they know they wont win a 'murican company in 'murica (apple vs samsung)

A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye.
This article focuses on cataracts in adults, but there is also a form of cataracts that effects children, called congenital cataracts .
Lens opacity; Age-related cataract
The lens of the eye is normally clear. It acts like the lens on a camera, focusing light as it passes to the back of the eye.
Until a person is around age 45, the shape of the lens is able to change. This allows the lens to focus on an object, whether it is close or far away.
As we age, proteins in the lens begin to break down and the lens becomes cloudy. What the eye sees may appear blurry. This condition is known as a cataract.
Factors that may speed up cataract formation are:
In many cases, the cause of cataract is unknown.
Adult cataracts develop slowly and painlessly. Vision in the affected eye or eyes slowly gets worse.
Visual problems may include the following changes:
Cataracts generally lead to decreased vision, even in daylight. Most people with cataracts have similar changes in both eyes, although one eye may be worse than the other. Many people with this condition have only mild vision changes.
Other symptoms may include:
A standard eye exam and slit-lamp examination are used to diagnose cataracts. Other diagnostic tests are rarely needed, except to rule out other possible causes of poor vision.
The following may help people who have an early cataract:
As vision gets worse, you may need to make changes around the home to avoid falls and injuries.
The only treatment for a cataract is surgery to remove it. Surgery is done if you cannot perform normal activities, such as driving, reading, or looking at computer or video screens, even with glasses.
If a cataract is not bothersome, surgery is usually not necessary. Cataracts usually do not harm your eye, so you can have surgery when it is convenient for you.
However, some people may have additional eye problems, such as diabetic retinopathy , that cannot be treated without first having cataract surgery.
For information on surgery, see: Cataract surgery
Vision may not improve to 20/20 after cataract surgery if other eye diseases, such as macular degeneration , are present. Ophthalmologists can usually, but not always, determine this in advance.
Early diagnosis and treatment are key to preventing permanent vision problems.
Although rare, a cataract that goes on to an advanced stage (called a hypermature cataract) can begin to leak into other parts of the eye. This may cause a painful form of glaucoma and inflammation inside the eye.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you have:
The best prevention involves controlling diseases that increase the risk of a cataract, and avoiding exposure to factors known to promote cataract formation.
Wearing sunglasses when you are outside during the day can reduce the amount of ultraviolet (UV) light your eyes are exposed to. Some sunglasses do not filter out the harmful UV. An optician should be able to tell you which sunglasses filter out the most UV. For patients who smoke cigarettes, quitting will decrease the risk of cataracts.

Northeast Mississippi Community College's football team continues to receive accolades since capping the year with its twelfth winning season in school history.
Northeast (5-4, 4-2 in North Division) finished in a tie for the North Division runner-up spot claiming the Tigers fifth division runner-up finish in school history and first since the 1987 season when a Johnny Plummer squad finished 6-4-1 and 4-1-1 in division.
Northeast Mississippi Community College's men and women's basketball teams were defeated on the road Monday night by Jones County Junior College in Ellisville.
In game one, the Lady Bobcats (2-2) picked up the win over the Lady Tigers (2-3) 103-67. Jones County led 65-32 at intermission but were only able to add 38 points in the second frame while Northeast scored 35.

With a playoff berth and bragging rights on the line Thursday night in Fulton, the 18th ranked Northeast Tigers dropped a 20-17 heartbreaker to arch rival Itawamba on the gridiron. Northeast took and early 7-0 lead on running back Jaquise Cook's (Ripley) one-yard TD plunge at the 5:39 mark in the first quarter. Less than a minute later, the Indians answered with a 43-yard touchdown pass from QB Andy Wilson (Spring, TX) to defensive back Darius Slay (Brunswick, Ga.) to knot the score at 7-7.
Northeast baseball will hold an inner-team scrimmage at the New Albany Sportsplex on Monday, October 25, 2010. The scrimmage will take place at 6 p.m. For more information on NEMCC athletics, go to their website: http://www2.nemcc.edu/Athletics/index_new.html
Head Coach Ricky Smither's squad advanced to 5-2 overall and 4-1 in the north division while Coahoma dropped to 1-4, 2-4.
"This was a great win for us and I give these guys all the credit for what they have accomplished," said Smither. "My coaching staff is the best. . .Coach Carter, Coach Darnell, Coach Boyette, and Coach Macon, I mean these guys deserve the credit for all the hard work they put in to this football program."
Skies were clear and calm in Scooba Thursday, October 7 but Northeast Mississippi Community College's football team let loose a rushing storm on East Mississippi and captured sole possession of second place in the North Division. Northeast's running duo of Jaquise Cook (Ripley) and Jamarcus Goodloe (Leighton, Ala.) accounted for 349 yards on the ground and five scores as the Tigers knocked off the defending Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges (MACJC) state champions 49-42 in an offensive storm.

When the days get shorter and cooler, the amount of sun that enters your home is important. Inadequate sunlight can influence seasonal mood changes, vitamin D deficiency and even your utility bills.
Prepare for winter by taking care of the portals that allow natural light into your home: windows and skylights.
Caulking and weather stripping are the two most common ways to prep windows, and the jobs are easily within the abilities of most do-it-yourselfers. Washing windows should also be part of your winter-preparedness measures; clean windows will allow the maximum amount of room-warming sunlight to enter your home.
Remove any debris that has accumulated around the exterior of any skylights. Take appropriate care when climbing on the roof, and consider hiring a professional if you're not confident of your safety skills.
Clean interior frames - often pre-painted wood or plastic - with a damp cloth or mild, soapy water for tougher dirt. Remove insect screens in venting skylights, spray with a garden hose and allow them to dry completely before replacing them.

Abstract: Beca"knowledge" is a strategic resource that gives sustainable competitive advantage and helps to achieve long-term goals. Knowledge Management (KM) has recently received considerable attention in the computer information systems community and is continuously gaining interest by industry, enterprises and academia. knowledge management combines with information management play an important role for the success of transforming individual knowledge into organizational knowledge since we are moving into an era of "knowledge capitalism". Higher education (HE) institutions are involved in knowledge creation, dissemination and learning, so they are in the knowledge business. Now-a-days, the increasing economic importance of knowledge redefines the links among education, work and learning in Higher Education institutions. This paper presents the key concepts of human-computer interaction in knowledge management, discusses their applicability to Higher Education and proposes the creation of learning organizations in HE institutions, as an innovative way to apply KM to HE.

Abstract: Library consortia for purchasing electronic journals became recognized as a vital part of academic information infrastructure at the research community. The biggest challenge that newcomers to the consortium world face is grasping the fact that standard setting is about giving away rights in technology. Leading institutions in North America and Western Europe take a variety of positive measures to promote consortium activities and formed unique consortia of many kinds. On the other hand, a consortium in India is still in a developing stage and struggle to solve problems they face. The factors that have led to the development of consortia are diverse among countries. This paper describes definitions, aim, organizations, internal structures, policies and other characteristics of the UGC-Infonet E-Journal Consortium which is one of the well known consortia for Higher Education in India under the UGC. It will also highlight the characteristics and issues faced by the consortia and the measures taken up to promote consortium activities. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1407 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: With the growing acceptance of web portals on university campuses, many librarians are considering building library portals to make their collections accessible to users who expect all knowledge to be obtainable with just a few clicks from inside a web browser. After all, the World Wide Web has become the marketplace for documents, goods, services, and ideas. For many people, especially students, if something is not on the web, it does not exist. This trend is especially challenging for libraries, which are the traditional keepers of knowledge but whose knowledge is largely kept in many millions of books and journalsnot on the web. The idea of a library portal is misdirected. While it is vital that libraries have a presence on university enterprise portals, libraries should build portal pages, portal channels, and portal cameos rather than entire library portals.

Abstract: The content of digital libraries includes data and metadata that describe various aspects of the digital record that consist of links or relationships to other data or metadata, whether internal or external to the digital library. Metadata is provided in order to provide richer searching than would be possible using standard free-text indexing. In particular it was desirable to allow users to search on a number of fields including Author, Title and Description. Metadata Expand the use of data incorporated in the digital object or text, and find ways of integrating different kinds of metadata. Metadata has been defined as "data about data". It is information about an electronic resource which may be embedded in the resource. According to Gilliland-Swetland metadata is more than description; a more deeper conceptualization of metadata is needed as information professionals consider the range of their activities that may end up in included into digital information systems. There are three main types of metadata Descriptive metadata; Structural metadata; Administrative metadata. Traditional library cataloguing is a form of metadata and MARC21 and the rule sets used with it such as AACR2 are metadata standards. Metadata is particularly useful for large collections of documents or other materials, it can be used for managing the resource and for finding specific items. A Catalogue becomes as found by some libraries an essential tool for retrieval. Increasing size and complexity of the digital information available on the web, demands for new methods of its organization. Uniform and structured meta information which can effectively be employed to achieve this goal. "LibSys for library automation" is the prime mission of New Delhi based software company - Info-Tek Consultants Pvt. Ltd. The Libsys metadata facilitates ordering receiving loose issues, recording bound volumes of journals in print medium this can be easily converted to e- Journal recording by changing the item receiving data into e-journal release data. The location metadata in libsys can be easily converted to url.. Bound volumes can give the link to Url The Library of Congress' Network Development and MARC Standards Office is developing a framework for working with MARC data in a XML environment. This framework is intended to be flexible and extensible to allow users to work with MARC data in ways specific to their needs. CONSER(2) began in the early 1970s as a project to convert manual serial cataloging into machine-readable records. It has evolved into an ongoing program to create and maintain high quality bibliographic records for serials. In keeping with its evolution, the name changed in 1986 from CONSER (CONversion of SERials) Project to the CONSER (Cooperative ONline SERials) Program. Describing electronic access to information is another challenge for the cataloger due to the different areas of the record involved, including the new electronic location and access field (856). 3rd Convention PLANNER -2005, Assam Univ., Silchar, 10-11 Nov., 2005 © , Ahmedabad 167 Metadata as a tool to facilitate exchange of information between interoperating systems and interoperability of metadata schemas themselves which can help to facilitate systems interoperability.

Abstract: Digital conversion of Library materials has advanced rapidly in past few years. Digitization is one of the hot topics in librarianship today. To build a "Digital Library" requires that the content of a collection be available electronically. The rhetoric of the information highway has provided the impetus to convert many existing paper-based (or sound and video) collections into new digital media. Digitization of all categories of materials is now possible with the advances in digital technology. The assumption is that digital collections will be more accessible to a broader range of users, presumable through networking technologies, and that there are new efficiencies to be gained in resource-sharing and for preservation. The topic discuss the concept of Digital library, Component, Technology, Functions and Supporting Format of Digital Library. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/1395 Files in this item: 1

Starbucks has not issued an outright ban but has asked customers not to bring guns into its stores or outdoor patio areas and will publish full page advertisements in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Washington Post announcing the change, according to the USA Today.
- What do you think about Starbucks decision? Do you think other businesses should, or should not, ban or ask customers not to bring guns into businesses? Let us know in the comments' section.
Schultz said in the letter that pro-gun activists have "used stores as a political stage for media events misleadingly called 'Starbucks Appreciation Days' that disingenuously portray Starbucks as a champion of 'open carry.'"
"To be clear: we do not want these events in our stores. Some anti-gun activists have also played a role in ratcheting up the rhetoric and friction, including soliciting and confronting our customers and partners," according to the letter.
Businesses face several complex issues when it comes to concealed carry and deciding whether to ban firearms in their stores and businesses, according to a Daily Herald article.
Illinois became the last state in the country to approve concealed carry this past summer but the average citizen can not yet carry a gun and "requirements for business signage on the subject remain a little unclear," according to the Daily Herald.
