Native News Network Staff in Entertainment. Discussion »
WASHINGTON In 1879, a Ponca Indian chief stood up, extended his hand, and made one of the greatest arguments for equality under the law in the history of the United States. Chief Standing Bear demanded that a federal court afford him the same rights as whites under the law, despite the fact that his skin was a different color.
Chief Standing Bear
Equality Under the Law
Cherokee playwright and attorney Mary Kathryn Nagle wrote "Waaxe's Law," a play that tells the story of the forced removal of the Ponca tribe to present-day Oklahoma and Chief Standing Bear's subsequent journey for justice - a journey that resulted in the first federal court decision declaring Indians to be "persons" under the law. Although Chief Standing Bear won his fight for equality in 1879 - a full 75 years before the Supreme Court issued its decision in Brown v. Board of Education - very few Americans know of his story or the freedoms he won for Native Americans.
"The Ponca tribe of Nebraska would not be where we are today if it was not for Chief Standing Bear; in fact, we may not even exist if it were not for this great chief. "Waaxe's Law" is more than a play; it is a part of our tribe's history,"
says Rebecca White, chairwoman, Ponca tribe of Nebraska.
Oliver Littlecook, member of the Ponca Tribe of Oklahoma's Tribal Council, adds,
"To the Ponca people, the story of Chief Standing Bear is one of courage and sacrifice: the courage to fulfill a commitment against all odds and adversity, and the sacrifice of your own life in the pursuit of what you believe."
The performance features a cast of 13 performers, including the Ponca Tribe of Oklahoma's honored elder, Louis Headman, who reads the part of Chief Standing Bear. Headman's grandmother, Virginia (Big Soldier) Headman, survived the Ponca's forced removal in 1877, when the government made the Ponca leave Nebraska and walk 600 miles to what is now Oklahoma. Today, Headman is one of only four individuals who speak the Ponca language fluently, and he has dedicated his life to the preservation of his language and the culture of his people.
"We are honored to present "Waaxe's Law" at the Newseum,"
Nagle says.
"Chief Standing Bear did for Native Americans what Martin Luther King Jr. did for African Americans, and being invited to present this story at the Newseum is a significant step towards ensuring that all Americans will come to appreciate Standing Bear's legacy."
Nagle first wrote "Waaxe's Law" three years ago when it was presented at the United States District Courthouse in Omaha, Nebraska, on the 130th anniversary of Judge Elmer Dundy's seminal ruling. Since then, Omaha's Great Plains Theatre Conference, produced by Metropolitan Community College, has worked to develop the play into the success that it is now.
Mary Kathryn Nagle, a citizen of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, is an award-winning playwright whose plays have been performed in New Orleans, Oklahoma, Omaha, Washington and New York. She is currently a writer in the Emerging Writers Group at the Public Theater in New York, where she also works in litigation at a national law firm. Her article "Standing Bear v. Crook: The Case for Equality under "Waaxe's Law," was recently published by the Creighton University Law Review.

From the moment O.J. Mayo ran out of the tunnel on Friday night at the Forum you could tell it was going to be a very weird game for him. After the first quarter you could tell it wasn't gonna be a game where he puts up 20-25 shots so any rational coach would say there is no need to play TA on him extended minutes considering we have another game tomorrow night. Our "coach" doesn't think like that however...the minute juice signed with Dallas 24:8,L said to himself "every time we play the Mavs imma put Tony on O.J. every second he's out there..no matter what". One minute into that Rockets game last night you could tell that both Lin and Harden were going to be extremely aggressive yet the best perimeter defender in the league only plays 18 minutes?!?!?!?!?!? Same kind of thinking went into the playoff series against the Clippers...he wanted to show the world that his best friend mike conley is just as good as Chris Paul(which he truly believes in his mind) and was more than capable of defending him. Had nothing to do with what was best for the team because ANYBODY would have concluded that having TA on Chris Paul is the way to go yet our "coach" couldn't figure out this obvious strategic move until game 4 of the series?!?!?!?!?!? Examples like this is why I don't like Lionell Hollins being the head coach of my favorite team....i don't have anything personal against the man...just don't think he's a man who can get us over the hump because of his lack of X's and O's and because he puts his personal relationship of players over what's best for the team.

And for me.
Rabbit Lord of the Undead writes:
Too often Nice White People are far more interested in being perceived as non-racist than they are in actually working to do something that might address the structural inequities racist beliefs and assumptions are built from and reinforce.
I know because I've been that Nice White Person. I still have my moments of it.
The only way to stop being that Nice White Person — if you're interested in actually stopping — is to start with acknowledging two things:
You harbour racist beliefs and assumptions. This, by itself, is not actually your fault and says nothing one way or another about you as a person except you live in a society filled with racist images and texts. It would be remarkable if you didn't absorb at least some of what your environment has to teach you. (Distressingly, non-white people have to live in the same society and are exposed to the same racist images and texts and harbour many of those whiteness-imposed racist beliefs and assumptions.)
I'm not a big fan of cognitive theories of psychotherapy, dependent as they are upon reinforcing the idea that the patient is largely powerless to effect change in ou environment. Therefore the patient must change ouself such that ou environment is somehow no longer harmful or distressing. But there are some concepts useful in other contexts and a cognitive-dialectic model can help a person harbouring implicit assumptions and beliefs to counter them when they arise. It takes work and a willingness to do a lot of not-very-comfortable self-examination, but by keeping watch over yourself and asking 'Is my reaction to this person / image / story racist? Is this based in fact or is it based in prejudice and racist myth'? It does work, though not quickly.
You, as a white person, benefit from white privilege and the denial of opportunity to non-white people. Again, this is not anything about you personally — yet. This is an artefact of a racist society and is unavoidable. If you want to work against racism you need to be aware of how privilege works: It does not mean you personally do bad things to non-white people and get stacks of cash for it. It means that (to get into sport metaphors) you had an enormous head start and a relatively smooth path to run. Non-white people start from farther back and face more obstacles and are denied opportunities you don't even notice because to you they're just how things are. (And not all white people have all these benefits — but nearly all lack a lot of the disadvantages nearly all non-white people face.)
For example, let's say you're a white person trying to get into university in the US. You may have played a sport in high school. You might have played a musical instrument. There are two years of art classes and three years of French classes on your high school transcript. You may have done volunteer work. In short, you're a well-rounded student. Also, your mother attended one of the schools you're applying to, making you a legacy application which gets you bonus points just about everywhere. Your parents aren't wealthy but they own a home and have a big chunk of the mortgage paid off which gives them access to a home equity line of credit should they need it. But you may have been able to get access to some of the increasingly large pool of non-need-based financial aid many schools offer. Your parents probably know enough about how the school loans system works to get loans directly from the government that have lower interest rates and less onerous terms of payment.
If you were a non-white person you may not have been able to play a sport officially. You might have had to work after school at something that pays money or something that doesn't like looking after younger siblings. With the rapidly increasing re-segregation of public schools and the eternal budget crises in school districts with large non-white and poor populations programmes like art and music and foreign language get cut. Classes are dedicated to teaching children to improving standardised test scores and little else. Buildings are eroding, books are in short supply, good teachers are rare. (I cannot tell you how many people we've run into who have told my wife she was the best teacher they ever had and how fucking heartbreaking that is: She taught first grade.) Your parents have rented their whole lives and have no equity to borrow against. You qualify for federal financial aid but the forms are deliberately confusing and difficult. Aid is weighted heavily towards loans and financial aid officers at the state school you can sort-of-but-not-really afford to go to have an agreement with Citibank to steer loan applicants their way.
Even if you get into college it will be harder for you. White students (and many white teachers) will assume you're there because of affirmative action even though affirmative action has been dead for fifteen years. Many will feel no compunction telling you have everything so much easier because you are non-white. White students who went to nearly all-white schools will want to get to know you, will want to touch your skin your hair ask if you tan ask what it's like to be non-white. They will write opinion pieces in the school paper about how hurt they were that one time they tried to go sit at The Black Table in one of the cafeterias and no one would talk with them. Credit card companies will lean on you hard to get and use their products assuring you you'll be able to pay everything off no problem when you get out of school and get that great job. It'll be hard to find a mentor amongst the faculty. You'll have an advisor, but they'll probably be white and they probably will not even notice the barriers created by institutional racism — especially not the ones in their own institution.
The white students you go to school with will have parties themed around the worst stereotypes of your culture. If you complain be prepared for race-based hate threats and violence. Spend every day knowing you will be expected to do twice the work to be though half as good as a white person. Go into every film, every TV show wondering if the person who looks like you is going to get killed first. If the person who looks like you is going to get any lines.
There's more. There's lots more. But you don't need me to tell you. Non-white people have been writing about their experiences for a long time and their writings are widely available. Find them. Read them. And always, always understand that a person who is sharing their lived experience with you is giving you a gift. It's their life. Sharing it with you puts them in an incredibly vulnerable position. It's not a philosophical point about which reasonable people can reasonably disagree and it's not a debate topic.
Try to not fuck up. When you do apologise. Understand what it is you are apologising for (and it's not 'I'm sorry if you were offended by my completely harmless words'). Work on becoming a person who can be trusted by people who have had their trust shattered every day of their lives.
Do it because you want to be that person. If you're looking for external validation you're going to be disappointed and probably flounce off eventually having not changed a damn thing.

Brainiacs Daughter
Made me a suit of bricks and mortar
And a matching stove pipe hat, oh yes
Brainiacs Daughter
Took me on a sleigh ride underwater
And I'm crazy for girls like that
Oh yes Sir, yes Sir
Three bags full Sir
All across the land the bells ring out
It's night, sun shines bright
So I reach to hold her frozen hand in flight
As we alight in the bottle city of Kandor
Brainiacs Daughter
Talks like a Daily Planet Reporter
Sitting cross legged there on the mat, oh yes
Brainiacs Daughter
Swallowed the pocket watch I bought her
And I'm crazy for girls like that
Oh yes Sir, Yes Sir
All fall down Sir
And I love the lights that blink on and off
All around her head
And I love the clothes that she tries on and off
Landing on the bed
Yes Sir, Yes Sir
Three bags full Sir

Ok lyed. Felt like drawing so i did. I drew Horus from Egyptian mythology. I no its not perfect but it took me under a hour lol
In case you'd like to participate in more PJ community-style games here's the "Draw My Character Game."
It's a simple game. Someone starts by posting a sketch of a character they've created. The next person in line draws a picture of that character and posts a sketch of their own character, ad infinitum, or ad nauseam, as the case may be.
You will have to reserve a spot in the thread, and then edit your post with your drawings. You have 48 hours to post your drawing after the drawing before yours is posted. If you do not make it by the deadline, you will be skipped.
As of August 17th, 2009, there will only be two placeholders per person allowed at one time. This will allow a greater mix of people getting their characters drawn by other people, and it will cut the down on time for the waiting list. Please be courteous of other participants and don't post another placeholder if you already have two.
Please do not post comments in this thread unless you are also reserving a space to participate. It will break the flow and someone might mistakenly assume that you are signing up. If you would like comments on your piece, please cross-post it to the appropriate Lab forum.
If you are concerned about load-time or bandwidth issues, please feel free to post just a link or a small thumbnail with a link to reduce load time.
Here's the Original Thread and the Second Thread.
Any questions, please PM me instead of asking in the thread.

text: Home Politics RNC 2012: Expect the Usual Sound and Fury This week in Tampa you can expect bad weather and the usual misleading attacks on Obama. By: Monroe Anderson Posted: Aug. 27 2012 12:16 AM 0 Getty Images (The Root) -- When the Grand Old Party gathers this week in Tampa, Fla., during the peak of hurricane season, the politicians' sound and the fury on the inside of the Convention Center may well match the wind and the fury of tropical storm Isaac on the outside. For three days, one blowhard Republican after the next will take to the national podium, attributing all the nation's ills to President Obama while extolling presidential wannabe Mitt Romney as the man with the plan to cure all. Almost all the accusations will be predictable. Almost none will be all that true. Thanks to the unrelenting efforts of the right-wing echo chamber, where talking points are passed around like the cold virus in a nursery school, we will have heard it all before. For the past four years, the echo chamber -- a cabal of extreme-right media, 1-percenters and politicians -- has had plenty to say about our 44th president. None of it's been good. As one malicious message after the next was transmitted from Fox Cable News to Newsmax to Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity to one Republican politician after the other, it has been mind-numbingly repetitious. In the right-wing narrative, our nation's first black president is always The Other, someone or something different from true-blooded Americans. There's Obama the socialist. Obama the foreign-born. Obama the Muslim. And then there's Obama, "the brother from another planet." As Speaker of the House John Boehner charged as he was interviewed in January by a small group of reporters, "We just come from two different planets." Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell echoed the same sentiment and language a couple of months ago when Fox News quoted President Obama as saying, "After losing jobs for 25 months in a row our businesses have actually created jobs for 27 months in a row; 4.3 million jobs in all," by responding, "Well, the president must be on another planet." We can expect more of the same signifying next week at the Republican National Convention. Besides more not-so-veiled references to the president's otherness, there should be plenty of mentions of his "failed record" and how unemployment has remained above 8 percent throughout his presidency. We'll hear about the national debt and deficit and how America is on the verge of becoming Greece any day now, how the debt will burden our children and our children's children if left in the hands of the current administration. We will also hear, although perhaps not quite as bluntly, echoes of what McConnell told the National Journal's Major Garrett a couple of years ago: "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president." The Republican's so-stated one-item to-do list will probably be as truthful as it gets at the GOP national meet-up. Other than that, look for the not-so-loyal (to the nation) opposition to speak in specifics-free, vague generalities about what they'll do once they've reclaimed the White House. There will be plenty of talk about encouraging the job creators (by not asking them to pay their fair share), but no mention of why so few jobs were created when the Republicans were in power during the Bush era.

Despite the vastly improved grip allowed by today's sport tires, there will always be a time when you will be forced to deal with less-than-optimum traction on the street. Having the proper skills to control a motorcycle in these circumstances obviously requires experience in dealing with sliding-but attempting to practice this skill on the pavement can have disastrous and painful consequences if you make a mistake.
Rich Oliver's Mystery School, taught on a well-maintained fleet of Yamaha TT-R125L minibikes on the Oliver training compound in central California (near Fresno), is the perfect place to learn how to slide. Oliver is a five-time AMA 250 GP National Champion-the winningest racer in the history of the class. He attributes much of his success to training he received from arguably the greatest motorcycle racer of all time: King Kenny Roberts.
In the early '90s Roberts hired Oliver to ride for his newly formed Marlboro 250 GP race team. He had Oliver join him at the famed Roberts Ranch near Hickman, California, and put him on a minibike circling a small dirt oval to judge his talent. "Kenny laughed so hard because I crashed so hard and so often," Oliver recalls. "I had no prior dirt experience, so I kept crashing on the front tire."
Although he initially suspected he might have been hired for Roberts' personal entertainment, Oliver's legendary work ethic and willingness to learn obviously impressed the three-time Grand Prix World Champion. Roberts mentored many multiple world champions like Wayne Rainey and John Kocinski with the same methods. "Kenny rides a motorcycle like no one else in the world," Oliver says, "and what he taught me on those little dirt bikes changed me from being a top-five finisher to a consistent race winner who also won championships."
Oliver takes much of what he learned from King Kenny's famously verbally abusive screaming methods and teaches it in a much kinder, gentler way that any first-time dirt bike rider will find comfortable and inviting. Rich and his highly capable wife, Karin, the school's director, offer outstanding hospitality and unfailing encouragement that caters to students of all ability levels and ages.
You might be wondering what a 9.8- horsepower, 170-pound dirt bike is going to teach me about riding my CBR1000RR. Oliver has this to share: "Kenny was always frustrated when he had people that were unable to ride a small dirt bike properly that wanted to move straight up to the big bikes. How are they going to get the most of a big bike if they can't get the most out of a minibike first?"
After enjoying two highly educational and fun-packed days at Oliver's Two-Day Fun Camp, I can tell you that my fellow students and I came away with far better bike mastery in what would previously have been out-of-control situations like greasy, slick mud that leave you constantly sliding both ends while Oliver laughs devilishly. Roberts talked about the many mental connections that need to be programmed into riders to be able to control a sliding motorcycle. The best and safest way he found to do that was on minibikes on small dirt tracks.

No one will believe you when you tell them that the intersections of Pine Ridge & Airport and Golden Gate(Goodlette Extension) & Airport were four way stops and Pine Ridge Road was gravel east of Airport.
After the traffic light at Immokalee and US41 there was not another traffic light until you got to south Fort Myers.
Ain't progress great?
Wasn't Goodlette graveled just about a mile north of GG Parkway during that time as well?

yea thankfully the hotfix drivers were the cure i needed very happy with them altho i find it comical they have a screw up on DAY 1 of a driver release that needs a correction that they already had they would have at least seemed more hmm adequate reliable on the ball damn it the word i want escapes me but eitherway they should have waited the extra 10hrs and released the hotfix driver as the actual 9.12 driver. they would have looked a bit less incompetent (found the word i wanted) anyway we have a good driver finally time to start benching
Were did you see a new Win 7 TV Tuner driver? game.amd.com doesn't show any drivers for either Win 7 32/64-bit and www.amd.com states drivers will come out soon,"http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/GPU39_ATITVWonderDrivers.aspx."
is anyone else having issues running 3dmark06 cpu tests under windows 7 64-bit using hd 5000 cards? tried 9.12 and the hotfix drivers. on core i7 (doubt that makes any difference) I keep getting d3derr_invalidcall even before any testing starts. the normal tests work fine, seems to work fine with non-hd5000, seems to work fine with cat 9.11
curious... must be 5 series related, my cards work fine on supcom FA (yes, i read your latest post that the hotfix fixes it - just pointing it out)
we narrowed it down to a bug between these drives and the EDID info from his monitor. for some reason it removed the resolution of 640x480, which the CPU tests use. edit: i'm about to test the beta/openCL drivers 9.12 WHQL without stream SDK installed (no change with SDK): 9.12 Hotfix with stream SDK installed - custom version of GPU-Z from w1zzard but the benchmark works fine

Moyes backs Saha to improve
Published : 11 Feb 2010 15:18:02Rss feed
Everton manager David Moyes believes striker Louis Saha can get even better after his star display against Chelsea on Wednesday night.The Frenchman struck both goals as the Merseysiders stunned the Barclays Premier League leaders 2-1 at Goodison Park.Saha also missed a penalty and spurned another couple of good chances as he gave the Chelsea defence a torrid time.His performance took his overall goal tally this season to 15 and came five days after he agreed a new two-year contract.The 31-year-old has enjoyed a new lease of life since joining the Toffees at the start of last season after four injury-ravaged years at Manchester United, with his improved fitness reaping rewards."Every so often Louis can do things that make you think what a good player he is," said Moyes of a player who had not scored in his four previous matches. "At Everton we need that consistency and he'll get that with games. I think he will feel much better."

As she prepares for the London Olympics, Dara Torres recently confessed to using Ambien. The drug is generally prescribed to treat insomnia but has become a popular choice in the sports world. Torres is not the only athlete who has turned to Ambien to calm her nerves before an event, and my conversations with other coaches reveal the growing popularity of this medication.
Dara Torres
Torres, who plans on competing in the 2012 Olympic Games at the age of 45, admits to using Ambien to help her sleep before an event. Dara Torres claims that she is not "doing it all the time" and points out that other athletes use the medication before events. Torres describes her use of the drug as selective instead of an ongoing dependence.
Ambien and Athletes
Ambien, also known as Zolpidem, is considered a hypnotic that helps with sleep issues. Although insomnia is the most commonly cited problem, Ambien has been used for other disorders. The drug is intended for short term use and not for extended periods of time. Among athletes, Ambien has become a popular drug to help them calm their nerves. Torres admits it helps her sleep before an event, and she is not the only person who benefits from it. Sleeping pills have become an easy and dangerous alternative for athletes who need their rest.
Tiger Woods has been linked to Ambien and allegedly asked his mistress to supply more drugs for him. Olympic skater Johnny Weir has referred to Ambien as his "best friend." Hockey player Derek Boogaard frequently used Ambien throughout his career. The prescription drug is readily available for athletes searching for a quick solution.
Side Effects
Although many athletes have exalted the benefits of Ambien, the drug comes with a long list of side effects and the potential for addiction. Symptoms range from minor headaches to joint pain. Ambien has also been linked to severe sleepwalking incidents that include driving, eating and working while under the influence of the drug. Many coaches have pointed out that the drug is becoming more popular among athletes, but its risks are being ignored.

The militant Kurdistan Workers' Party released four workers and four village guards. One special sergeant was kidnapped. 19 people are still being kept hostage, including twelve teachers.
As reported on 3 October, 24-year-old Special Sergeant Kemal Ekinci from Gaziantep (eastern Mediterranean) was abducted by the armed outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) on 1 October in the Cumhuriyet district of Şırnak (south-eastern Turkey). Ekinci was on his way to Çakırca Brigade when he was kidnapped.
On 2 October, the PKK released the four workers Hacı Kozludereli, Ali Çatak, Doğan Dönekli and Doğan Kaz. They had been kidnapped together with another four workers on 9 September from a dam construction site in Siirt (south-east). Ten construction machines were set on fire. Four workers were released on the way after a short while, the other four workers were kept hostages. After their release on Sunday (2 October), they gave their statements to the gendarmerie.
Moreover, village guards Mahmut Yalçın, Mehmet Ali Kahraman, Saffet Timur and Nesim Timur were released in the past days. They had been abducted by the PKK on 8 September in Şırnak (Beytüşşebap Township, Mezra Municipality).
A total of 19 people are still being kept hostages by the PKK since July, among them three soldiers, one district governor candidate, two drivers, one village guard and twelve teachers. (NV/VK)

A Girl and Her Fork stop by Farrell's
Last night, Mr. S., the kidlets and I were fortunate enough to attend one of the sneak preview nights for the new Farrell's opening up in Sacramento. The event was a soft opening and proceeds were donated to the Firefighters Burn Institute, Shriners Hospital and UCDMC.
Although it appeared that the staff was still working out a few operational glitches, everyone was in good spirits and smiles were abound. There was a lot of singing, clapping and festive cheer throughout the restaurant. We had a blast!

Baked Bree makes pickled shrimp
I have admitted that I have not been cooking a ton this summer, but there are two things that I have made over and over. Blueberry Crisp and these pickled shrimp. I have made these pickled shrimp every time we have had people over since I discovered this recipe. I have been on a really big shrimp cocktail kick, and saw this recipe when I was flipping through Southern Living. I had everything in the house, so I made it that night for dinner. The shrimp are cooked until just done, then pickled in a quick vinegar mixture that is loaded with garlic, herbs, and lemons. They are refreshing and light. Perfect summer food. I made a big salad and threw these on top. So, so, good.

Cavegrrl recaps her State Fair cooking demos
I was impressed there were a few couples in the crowd that showed up to see the demo because they already practice the Paleo/Primal diet/lifestyle. They were so nice to us (important because of my semi-stage fright/shyness), and it was fun to compare notes and results. It was a real encouragement to have like-minded people in the audience cheering us on!

The Morning Download comes from the editors of CIO Journal and cues up the most important news in business technology every weekday morning. Send us your tips, compliments and complaints. You can get The Morning Download emailed to you each weekday morning by clicking here.
Good morning. For many CIOs, the main decision about moving at least some of their IT infrastructure to the cloud is no longer if, but how. We're not talking about simply moving noncore business apps like email to the cloud. We're talking about moving computing power and storage to the cloud.
It may seem like the products in this quickly growing market are all the same, but they aren't. That's what CIO Journal's Tom Loftus learned when he called three vendors–Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Google Inc.–and asked them to explain what they have to offer customers in the way of infrastructure and platform services.
Loftus's main conclusion: "Amazon and, to a lesser extent, Microsoft provide customers with certain amenities that Google's new offering, at the moment, does not." Don't miss his report–including the survey that clarifies how these three companies structure agreements with customers.
No one leaves this cloud. Cloud software vendor Salesforce.com Inc. Tuesday introduced a series of new mobile applications, including a chat function and applications allowing sales and marketing staff to make use of touch capabilities available with many new mobile device types. CIO Journal's Michael Hickins notes that while the new features enhance its sales management tool suite, they also further the vendor's goal of becoming indispensable to its customers – and thus more difficult for customers to replace. "Indeed, the companies are competing not only to prove they're best able to offer customers more innovative products, but to tie their product sets more closely together in a way that weds their customers more permanently to their technology," Hickins says.
The most powerful business intelligence comes from outside the corporation. A new study from Arthur D. Little says that companies that add external sources of information, such as social media, to their business intelligence are more innovative and more profitable. The most innovative companies outscored their rivals by 25% when it came to making use of external business intelligence data. The survey of 275 C-level executives also found that the most innovative companies earned 13% more in profits from new products and services, CIO Journal's Joel Schectman reports.
Apple aims to crack India market. Apple Inc. has radically overhauled its iPhone operations in India to crack the crucial market, but still has a long way to go, the WSJ says. It's a huge prize — India is poised to become the world's third-largest smartphone market this year, behind China and the U.S. Apple's strategy involves sidestepping wireless carriers to take greater control over marketing in the country and offering no-interest loans to lure lower-income consumers. The company has also boosted staff in India by 30% to 170 employees in the past six months. Even so, Apple accounts for just 5% smartphone shipments to India, compared with 40% for market leader Samsung Electronics Co.
Apple CEO to face investors. As Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook takes the stage at this year's shareholder meeting, he may not get the reception he received in 2012, when investors lauded the company's performance and rising shares, writes Bloomberg's Adam Satariano. The annual event, where holders will vote on re-electing board members, takes place today at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, Calif. In this year's run-up, the company has been enmeshed in a public spat over distribution of its $137.1 billion in cash and investments with hedge-fund manager David Einhorn, who advocates a bigger payout, using preferred shares. While Mr. Cook will probably discuss cash at today's meeting, the company doesn't typically use the annual gathering to announce new products or strategy shifts.
Apple settles over kids' app orders. Apple has agreed to pay out more than $100 million to moms and dads whose children made purchases from apps downloaded from its online iTunes store without permission, the Mercury News's John Boudreau reports. The proposed settlement to a class-action suit represents the latest example of tech issue vexing parents, who now must worry about everything from how their children behave on Facebook to what mobile apps they are buying. In the proposed settlement, Apple will provide iTunes credit to as many as 23 million customers whose children made "in-app" transactions for virtual goods without their parents' knowledge.
Is Twitter worth $10 billion? In recent weeks, Twitter completed private transactions that pegged its value at $9 billion, while others have put the value above $10 billion. Twitter isn't worth $10 billion if you benchmark it to its current financials, but that hardly matters now. The prime question is just how big Twitter can get—and how profitable, the WSJ's Dennis Berman writes. Companies love touting themselves as "platforms," but in Twitter's case it happens to be true. The company must spend to maintain its plumbing and constantly improve its interface, but once that's done, it stands back and collects its middleman money. That means getting to massive scale at relatively minimal cost.
Repatriation taxes push Cisco to invest overseas. Cisco Systems Inc. CEO John Chambers told the FT [registration required] that the company has abandoned lobbying efforts to change U.S. tax policy on repatriated cash, so he's looking to invest some of its $46.4 billion in cash in Europe and Canada, which won't help U.S. job growth. Mr. Chambers said at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona that the tech industry had given the U.S. plenty of time to change tax policy in a way that makes repatriation more palatable. "It's now at the point where we are going to go ahead and move. You're going to see us put the cash to use."
Intel hopes non-technical companies will use its Hadoop framework (and buy Intel chips). Intel Corp. yesterday said it is releasing a new, possibly easier-to-use version of the open source Big Data software system Hadoop. As the NYT's Quentin Hardy explains, the more companies that Intel can persuade to run data analysis, the more demand there will be for those Intel chips that can run computers churning through the data sets.
Growing Hadoop herd could spawn stampede. Intel's Hadoop announcement came after storage vendor EMC Corp. introduced its own distribution of Hadoop. What's going on? As ZDNet's Larry Dignan explains, Big Data requires computing power and storage. "Optimized Hadoop for EMC storage and Intel processors makes a lot of sense," Dignan writes. More interesting is what happens next as software maker Oracle Corp. and data warehousing companies such as Teradata Corp. weigh whether they need their own Hadoop distributions as well. "For now," Dignan tells readers, "it's probably best to sit back and evaluate all of the players. Your infrastructure—as well as your intent to stick with it—may be a gating factor."
Startup promises CIOs some cloud control, sleep. ReadWrite's Matt Asay reports on Skyhigh Networks, a new startup that allows CIOs to view and manage all the cloud services employees are using. "Give it 30 minutes and it will cleverly discover all third-party cloud services employees have running (e.g., Dropbox, Box, MindtheMilk, Salesforce.com Inc., etc.), and show you a list of the most dangerous," writes Asay. For all CIOs kept up at night knowing that somewhere an employee is signing him and his work buddies up for a new cloud trial service, this startup could herald a good night's sleep.
No Google bricks-and-mortar stores. Google executive Andy Rubin says that the company is not looking to build retail stores, All Things D's Ina Fried reports. Mr. Rubin's comments, made yesterday at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, quashed earlier reports that Google was looking to tap into Apple's retail strategy and build brick and mortar stores selling Google products. "Google has no plans and we have nothing to announce," he said.
Stuxnet virus older than previously thought. Researchers at Symantec Corp. say the Stuxnet virus, believed to have been created by the U.S. and Israel to attack a uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, Iran, is older than previously thought. Examining thousands of versions of the virus, researchers have found code dating to 2005, when Iran was still setting up its facility, reports Reuters's Jim Finkle. "It is really mind blowing that they were thinking about creating a project like that in 2005," Symantec researcher Liam O'Murchu told Reuters. Stuxnet was discovered in 2010.
Pentagon plans on more Apple, Android devices. The U.S. Defense Department said yesterday that its networks will welcome by next year about 100,000 mobile devices from companies such as Apple and Google. Until now, the Pentagon has been a huge BlackBerry customer, reports Bloomberg's Brendan McGarry, with devices from the Waterloo, Ontario-based company accounting for 470,000 of the more than 600,000 mobile devices used by the military.
BYOPee. Mumbai-based startup Biosense Technologies has developed an iPhone app that allows users to test their own urine for signs of diseases, pregnancy drug usage and more, reports All Things D's Liz Gannes. The uChek app works with any urine-test dipstick. After taking a sample, users place it next to a color mat and use their device to take pictures of the two at various time intervals. "The point of the mat is to provide a reference color palette that can be compared to the stick in any light," Ganne writes. "Then the app locally analyzes what it sees, and displays the levels and the trends."
The easy way is not so easy. Ben Bernanke isn't budging in his support for continued bond buying, a tactic for keeping interest rates low, or easing them. "Keeping long-term interest rates low has helped spark a recovery in the housing market and has led to increased sales and production of automobiles and other durable goods," he said in his semiannual report to Congress yesterday.Mr. Bernanke faced some hostile questioning from the Senate Banking Committee – particularly from Sen. Bob Corker (R., Tenn.), who told the Fed chief that his easy-money policies were sparking a global currency war and creating "faux" stock-market wealth. He also accused Mr. Bernanke of "throwing seniors under the bus" by pushing down interest rates and reducing their returns on savings. Mr. Bernanke was pretty perturbed by those comments, the WSJ's Jon Hilsenrath notes.
J.P. Morgan culls work force. J.P. Morgan set plans to cut 17,000 jobs by the end of next year and slash expenses by at least $1 billion annually. For 2012, the bank reported net income of $21.3 billion — up 12%, and a company record. But revenue was flat and costs inched up. The cuts show that JPM isn't immune to the effect of low interest rates on profits from lending and investing, writes the WSJ's Dan Fitzpatrick. Meanwhile, CEO Jamie Dimon said the company's major areas of focus this year are growing organically and dealing with a raft of new rules and requirements from regulators. Acquisitions, he said, are "off the table."
Clearwire to tap Sprint financing. Clearwire plans to tap financing made available by Sprint Nextel — complicating Dish Network's effort to buy the wireless broadband operator, the WSJ reports. Dish has proposed buying Clearwire for $3.30 a share amid opposition from Clearwire shareholders to a deal in which Sprint would acquire the roughly half of Clearwire it doesn't own for $2.97 a share. Clearwire had earlier indicated that Dish has said it would withdraw its proposal if Clearwire drew on the funds made available by Sprint. The financing is in the form of notes that convert into stock— which gradually could give Sprint a bigger stake in Clearwire. Sprint executives are expected to inform board members about the exact amount of the draw today.

Building a Mini Library for Your Kids
April 14, 2011 · Posted in Touchless Hygiene Systems · 1 Comment
Honing your children's reading skills should begin at an early age. Reading would help them learn new words and widen their vocabulary. Plus, they learn to appreciate different types of literature. Instead of buying them pocket-sized video games, give them books. Instead of setting up a game room, why not build a mini library instead?

executive decision
Posted by Dale Buss on March 8, 2013 05:43 PM
PepsiCo's CMO, Salman Amin, is leaving the company for S.C. Johnson on a high note, having helped CEO Indra Nooyi deliver over the last year on a number of crucial, marketing-based promises, including something of a turnaround for the company's flagship Pepsi brand, which is still duking it out with Coca-Cola and other beverage giants.
The departure of the company's Global Chief Marketing Officer from PepsiCo's Purchase, NY, HQ to Racine, Wis.-based S.C. Johnson—maker of Pledge, Glade and other household products—was disclosed in an internal memo at PepsiCo, the Wall Street Journal reported today.
Amin's exit opens up a top marketing job at PepsiCo just as the company has been reporting gains in sales and market share for Pepsi, having doubled down on marketing following the company's market share slip in recent years in U.S. sales even behind Diet Coke.
A PepsiCo veteran of more than two decades, Amin became PepsiCo CMO only last May. He was able to leverage a $600 million increase in Pepsi's annual marketing budget and a refocusing of spending on top brands including Pepsi and Gatorade into significant gains. "Salman has made contributions that have touched nearly every market in which we do business," said Zein Abdalla, president of PepsiCo, in the memo, according to Ad Age.
Amin also launched the first-ever global marketing campaign ("Live for Now") for Pepsi and inked pop star Beyonce to a $50 million partnership that included the halftime performance during last month's Super Bowl telecast.Continue reading...

It's hard to know if architectural icon Frank Lloyd Wright liked such products as Pledge, Windex, Ziploc, and Fantastik, but there is one thing for sure: The folks that manufacture those products, SC Johnson, love Wright.
The 126-year-old megabillion-dollar company — which is so proud of its buildings' architecture that there's a top nav link on the corporate website — is kicking off a new on-site art gallery at its corporate HQ with an exhibit entitled "At Home with Frank Lloyd Wright" on its Wright-designed campus this weekend that is free to the public. The exhibition collects some of Wright's Prairie Style designs and related artifacts, according to a press release.
"SC Johnson's history with Frank Lloyd Wright spans many decades, and his impact on our headquarters campus is enduring," stated Fisk Johnson, chairman and CEO of SC Johnson. "But Wright's influence goes beyond that, to the home."Continue reading...

The midpoint of the six-month hurricane season passed on Sept. 1, and the Atlantic Ocean has yet to see its first hurricane.
That's happened only six times since 1950.
Gabrielle, the seventh named tropical system of the 2013 season, is now just a tropical rainstorm as it passes Puerto Rico on its way northward into the central Atlantic.
Forecasters have predicted an above-average hurricane season for 2013.
A respected team led by Colorado State University professor Dr. William Gray predicted 18 named storms for the hurricane season, nine of them hurricanes and four major hurricanes (category three or higher).
Storms receive a name when they reach tropical storm status, meaning they pack 39 mph sustained winds and retain tropical characteristics. They become hurricanes when sustained winds reach 74 mph. Category three hurricanes have sustained winds of 111 mph or higher.
Hurricane forecasters said the absence of an El Niño event (a warming of ocean water off the west coast of South America) is one of many factors that leads them to believe 2013 will be ripe for hurricanes.
But in the first three months of hurricane season, predictions have talked more about the dust, dry air and wind shear inhibiting the development of tropical storms in their breeding grounds near the coast of Africa.
On Friday, several tropical waves were being tracked in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. But only one — just emerging off the African coast — showed signs favorable for significant development. The unnamed system could strengthen by early next week.
Aside from the heavy rain dumped by the remnants of Tropical Storm Andrea in early June, Galloway Township has not seen rain, wind or waves from a tropical system in 2013. But the arrival of Superstorm Sandy late in the 2012 hurricane season (Oct. 29, 2012) is still fresh in the memories of all Jersey Shore residents, a reminder that hurricane season does not end until Nov. 30.

Behind Romney's attack-and-dodge strategy is the stark fact that the GOP nominee's key advisors and basic policies are very much in line with the last Bush administration. (The Daily Beast)
Romney wanted a high-tech fence to keep illegal immigrants away, lower taxes for the rich, change nothing about the disparities among the low socioeconomic status. I am not voting for him! Rally people, "Say No" To Romney.
