The Development and Impact of Consumer Word of Mouth in New Product DiffusionY. Jackie LuanTuck School of Business at Dartmouth Scott NeslinDartmouth College - Tuck School of Business August 26, 2009 Tuck School of Business Working Paper No. 2009-65 Abstract: We investigate how consumer word of mouth (WOM) develops over time and in turn influences new product adoption. We develop a dynamic aggregate-level model of WOM development and new product diffusion that explicitly captures consumers' learning of product quality from both marketing communications and WOM. It allows us to measure how effectively firms' marketing efforts generate WOM (buzz) and to determine whether WOM influences product adoption primarily through an informative role (i.e., helping the consumer learn product quality) or a persuasive role (i.e., exerting a direct impact on sales, for example, by increasing awareness). A formal treatment of the endogeneity issue inherent in the WOM-sales relationship enables us to infer short-term and long-term sales elasticity of WOM. The model is estimated using simulated generalized method of moments (GMM) and applied to the U.S. video game market. Our results indicate: (1) media publicity is especially effective at generating WOM for video games while media advertising is ineffective. (2) WOM is the key source of quality learning. It has a larger informative effect than publicity and advertising combined. (3) While WOM also has a significant persuasive effect, the informative effect dominates; therefore, buzz marketing is economically meaningful only for high-quality products.

MARC to launch new schedule Monday
The Maryland Transit Administration will launch a new schedule on its Penn Line Monday, adding eight trains to the schedule in an effort to alleviate overcrowding and improve on-time performance on the Amtrak-operated Penn Line.
The new schedule, which has been in the planning stages for more than a year, is intended to relieve some of the strain on its locomotive fleet by using smaller train sets running at more frequent intervals.
Terry Owens, an MTA spokesman, said MARC officials have been meeting with riders at Penn Line stations since Feb. 28 and have received a generally favorable reaction to the changes. The Camden and Brunswick lines, operated by CSX, will not be affected.
The new schedule will add two morning peak and two evening peak trains in each direction. In both cases, one of the new trains will run between Washington and Baltimore while the other will run between Perryville and Washington.
Rafi Guroian, chairman of the MARC Riders Advisory Council, said the new schedule is a positive step that will help relieve crowding on Penn Line trains. However her expressed skepticism whether it would be as effective in preventing breakdowns.
According to the MTA, the new schedule will add five stops at Martin State Airport and seven at Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
One of the Washington-Baltimore trains will be a limited-stop train to Odenton during the evening rush hour.
Owens said the additional service to Perryville is intended in part to help accommodate the additional traffic to Aberdeen Proving Ground expected as a result of the Pentagon's base-relocation process.
Satisfaction hasn't been universal, Owens indicated.
"I think the folks up in Perryville would like to see a little more service up there," he said. But Owens said MTA officials decided they need to concentrate MARC's resources in the Baltimore-Washington part of the route, where the demand is heaviest.
Owens said one of the purposes of the revised schedule is to ease some of the strain on its locomotive fleet, "especially the electrics trying to haul those nine-train-car sets."
The Penn Line has been plagued by frequent locomotive breakdowns in recent years -- especially during the heat of summer. Last year one of those breakdowns last summer led to the so-called "hell train" incident, where passengers on one stalled Penn Line train were stranded for more than two hours in baking cars before emergency responders began to evacuate them.
Guroian said he doubts whether the new schedule will have much of an effect on on-time performance. He said he has seen no evidence that heat and heavy trains are the reason behind the Penn Line locomotive breakdowns in recent years.
However, Guroian said the changes should go a long way in improving the comfort and safety of the trains.
"The new schedule I'm convinced is going to alleviate a lot of that standing-room-only for a lot of people," he said. That standing , he said, poses a significant hazard in the event of a train crash, he said.
Guroian said he's not expecting everything to go smoothly at first.
"It's going to be a challenge for Amtrak dispatchers to keep everything running on time in the beginning," he said. "I'm sure there are going to be some growing pains."

First World War project allows pupils to see its impact on their families (From This Is Wiltshire)

First World War project allows pupils to see its impact on their families
5:02pm Tuesday 8th October 2013 in Latest News
A £33,000 award-winning film project is capturing children's interest in the Great War by making it personal to them.
Each of Chippenham's secondary schools has been given an interactive display unit enabling the research of more than 500 servicemen who lost their lives in the First World War.
Teachers say their pupils have been fascinated by the computerised units, on which they have discovered fallen relatives and men who gave their names to streets in Pewsham.
Abbeyfield history teacher John Ward said: "We can't get them off it. The key thing is to make it personal to them.
"Fifty-three of the streets in Pewsham are named after men killed in both wars, such as Beaven Close after Frank Beaven and Chivers Close after brothers Edwin and Sydney Chivers."
The unit, also at Chippenham Museum and available to hire, was unveiled on Friday at the Neeld Hall, where nearly 2,000 patients were treated when it was used as a hospital during the conflict.
The launch was attended by mayor Sylvia Gibson and James Gray, MP for North Wiltshire, who said: "This seems to me to be exactly what we should be doing at a local level to commemorate the war."
The film Letters from a Small Town, which won a Platinum Remi award at the Worldfest-Houston independent film festival in April this year, can be screened on the unit.
Richard Broadhead, who wrote the film's script, said: "It stands out as a film because it's real things that actually happened. The stories include those of regular and volunteer soldiers, conscripts, white feather recruiting girls, Land Girls, civilians and a nurse from the hospital set up in the Neeld Hall and civilians.
"It also covers propaganda, food shortages, air raids on the Home Front and Chippenham men at Mons, Gallipoli and even taking part in the Christmas truce in 1914 in Flanders."
War artefacts have also been on display. The Great War project has been created by commemoration group Finding the Forgotten with help from a £30,000 National Lottery grant and £3,000 from Wiltshire Council.

Baby Blueberry is now roughly 13 1/2 inches long and weights about a pound and a half which is about the same weight as an average rutabaga, according to babycenter.com. She's beginning to develop a little baby fat and soon her wrinkled skin will begin to smooth out and she'll start to look more like a newborn. She's also growing more hair — and if I could see it, I'd be able to tell the color and texture.
So with the whole potential move looming, we've been trying to figure out what will happen with our health insurance if we move out of state. We have a private health insurance that we got when Dan was with his last job, because the company was too small to be able to offer him a group insurance (there was no group to speak of). Instead they reimbursed him for about 40% of what we paid monthly and that was that. This was good because it meant not losing our current healthcare but now we find out it's not so good because the HIPAA act which would ensure that my pregnancy not be considered a "pre-existing condition" when we switch, doesn't apply to us – it only covers people going from one group health insurance to another. Figures, right?
I know that the private health insurance we have (Blue Cross Blue Shield) in the state where Dream Company is located said we were pretty much SOL and recommended that I apply for that state's government health insurance – you know, crap. I can say this with a fair amount of certainty because I had government health insurance with my first pregnancy after getting laid off half way through my pregnancy and only having work through temp agencies (Dan and I were not planning for this birth and had not married yet, long story short). Yes, I got free health care – but in my opinion, I also got what I paid for. What really annoys me – is that we paid for an expensive health insurance so that we'd reap the benefits when we had BB. And now basically we get nothing in particular out of it – if we move out of state, our current health insurance won't cover us and we'll have to get something else. Now, I have no idea what the health insurance companies that Dream Company uses will tell us – maybe one of them will cover us no problem – I haven't called around outside of BCBS because we don't actually have a job yet. Now there's also New Other Job on the table and the possibility that we might not get either job – it's really too soon to look into it much more.
So, I mean, in part, I have my answer. I just don't like it very much. Still, it's a bit of weight of my shoulders, knowing how it is and where things stand, for the most part. And you know as for the pregnancy, things are still pretty much the same – just wondering how much longer I'll be here – if I'll be keeping my doctor, who I love and the health insurance that I love – or moving to another state and figuring something else out. We'll see.

The more I look, the more I find. Fire dancers on the streets of Maryland eh? How much does it take before something is mainstream? I hope it'll be a bit longer for this. :)

Fire dancers have been on the streets of Maryland (especially Baltimore) for a few years now. As we're a big ole' group of slackers, we're not very organized, though.

Trametes versicolor
Turkey tail / Elfenbankje
Dry and leathery to the touch, the turkey tail is too tough to eat (although slugs and squirrels happily feast on the colorful mushroom). It enjoys the company of dead or dying trees, which it helps decompose.
The turkey tail recycles nutrients and minerals, and releases them back into nature slowly over time. It is one of the most common fungi to be found in the woods, and does well in all seasons. Although apparently harmless and innocent (the Dutch name translates as "Fairy Bench"), the turkey tail is actually an incredibly strong medicine. In combination with chemotherapy it has increased survival rates of numerous types of cancer. This mushroom also has bioremediation potential, according to mycologist Paul Stamets.
Growing process
Stage 1
A substrate mixture of wood and nutrients has been inoculated with Trametes versicolor mushroom spores. The spores multiply and spread through the substrate, causing the block to turn white.
Stage 2
At this stage, called "primordia formation", the root structure of the mushrooms, the mycelium, has now spread throughout the substrate, causing the entire block to harden and turn white.
Stage 3
The final stage is 'fruitbody development'. Once fruitbodies are seen, the plastic casing is removed from the substrate block. The mushroom then begins to grow out in a colourful tail-like pattern. This mushroom is inedible and serves more of a decorative purpose.

Productivity Associates
Your Ultimate Partner for Contact Center Solutions
one awesome customer interaction at a time
Core Traits of a successful business
Growing top line revenue demonstrates that you are acquiring new business, retaining existing customers and perhaps having success with new sources of income.
Renowned Chrysler CEO, Lee Iacocca offered: "If you have a great top-line, the bottom line can always be fixed."
At the risk of oversimplification, we suggest…
"Anyone can cut expenses, but driving top-line revenue growth…now that takes talent."
No one wants to invest in a company that simply emphasizes trimming expenses and streamlining operations. No venture capitalist, No shareholder, No rich family member, No portfolio manager…well, not the type you necessarily want managing your funds, anyway.
Don't get us wrong. We understand that in today's new normal customers and employees expect to be able to engage with you anytime, anywhere, and at a lower cost.
But, cost cutting is not a long-term growth strategy
As the famous saying goes, "Hope is not a strategy", so it too can be said that "Cutting cost is not a strategy."
There is a time and place for making operational adjustments to keep expenses in line with revenues. However, the focus of your energy and resources needs to stay highly focused on top-line revenue growth. Organizations that n lose sight of this important strategic objective…you will likely fail.
Sounds too harsh?
Research has confirmed that companies who are unable (or subconsciously unwilling) to grow their top line of their business are essentially being steamrolled in the marketplace by their competitors.
In order to grow, you have to be willing to face some tough questions
There are more tough questions you could ask yourself. But fundamentally, the real question is: Are you willing to take a critical look at your business and drive radical change? We believe that answering "Yes!" to this question empowers you to think differently and allows you to create your own ZAG.
A strategic question
Many successful businesses have recognized that they have the expertise to develop innovative products and market them effectively. However, when it comes to managing the customer experience they often realize that they may not have the resources, experience, and culture to deliver service experiences that will WOW their customers. To satisfy this key objective they have made a strategic decision to find a trusted partner that can manage their customer service and support experience.
Finding the right partner to provide your employees and customers' friendly, professional, efficient and expert service can help you to strengthen your brand, gain credibility, empower you to create innovative new offerings, and ensure that you successfully scale as your business grows.
We here at Productivity Associates are passionate about creating awesome customer experiences, and the type of strategic partner that is "ALL IN" when it comes to helping your company grow.
Success Stories
PAI has a 20 year track record of success in achieving tangible results that empower companies to focus on their core competencies. In the Case Studies that follow, we discuss our role in helping some of our partners achieve their goals.
– American Association of Critical-Care Nurses
– Thermo Fisher Scientific
– Joint Commission Resources
– Hitachi Consulting
About the Company
The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN) is the largest specialty nursing organization in the world, representing the interests of more than 500,000 nurses who are charged with the responsibility of caring for acutely and critically ill patients. The association is dedicated to providing members with the knowledge and resources necessary to provide optimal care to critically ill patients.
Business was booming for AACN. Their e-learning subscriber base was growing by 22% each quarter, but their help desk vendor wasn't keeping up. Their poor service generated a paltry 10% first-tier resolution rate, and AACN's staff was forced to resolve the remaining 90% of support inquiries. They struggled to keep up with the customers' requests for information, and it was taking them away from other pressing duties. The result was low customer satisfaction levels and poor utilization of expensive internal resources.
We worked with AACN to develop the tailored, scalable solution it required during this heavy growth period. The help desk was cost-effective and leveraged our 24/7 operations, world-class management, and ITIL-based service delivery.
PAI stepped in and supplied the world-class service AACN and its clients deserved. During a period when inquiries grew tenfold – from 200 to 2000 per month – PAI nimbly handled AACN's subscriber requests while decreasing the cost-per-call by 23%.
In the first month of service, PAI delivered a 77% first call resolution rate, and soon increased that to 90% or greater on a consistent basis. This reduced the number of repeat calls, as well as the cost of escalations, and lead to an aggressive cost savings over time.
AACN members experienced a dramatic rise in the level of customer service and technical support quality. The company appreciated the difference PAI made, and the two continue to expand their relationship.

About the Company
Thermo Fisher Scientific is a rapidly growing manufacturer of handheld optical systems for chemical identification. Since 2002, Thermo Fisher Scientific has designed, developed and successfully launched products unlike any in the marketplace, putting the power, reliability and accuracy of expensive, lab-based instruments in portable, rugged, easy-to-operate systems designed for field use. With customers in the homeland security, public safety, pharmaceutical, industrial, and medical markets, Thermo Fisher Scientific's products—FirstDefender, TruDefender FT, and TruScan—are widely-deployed across the globe.
Thermo Fisher Scientific provides first-responder products for fire departments, police departments, the FBI, and other such organizations, so the company receives calls from clients that are often critical, sensitive, and unique in nature. At a time when business was expanding rapidly, the company's help desk provider repeatedly dropped or failed to answer calls and often gave incorrect advice.
The company determined that an internal customer service department would be too costly and complex to maintain, but realized they needed to quickly replace their current vendor with one that would deliver world-class customer service, or else the company's growth would be jeopardized.
PAI built a tailored solution that addressed the company's needs – something no other provider would do. We consulted with company officials and drew from our extensive experience in the help desk field to design a cost-effective solution that allowed Thermo Fisher Scientific to realize its high customer service standards.
Utilizing our proprietary support tools and skilled staff, PAI delivered an optimized help desk solution that provided timely, around-the-clock coverage to first-call responders. Our high-level tech support team gave professional, accurate, and knowledgeable responses that weren't simply read off a script.
In PAI, the company not only found a provider – it found a business partner. Since the relationship began, Thermo Fisher Scientific's support requirements have risen by 200%, and PAI has met every aspect of these growing demands with superb service. Thermo Fisher Scientific's customers received the immediate, accurate information they required, while the company's cost-per-call declined as its business expanded. As a result, the company continues to grow, and Thermo Fisher Scientific's image as an elite provider of first-responder products has remained intact.

Joint Commission Resources (JCR) is an expert resource for health care organizations, providing consulting services, educational services, and publications to assist in improving quality and safety and to help in meeting the accreditation standards of The Joint Commission, the nation's principal standards setter and evaluator for a variety of health care organizations.
After launching a new product, JCR saw its customer base swell, and its small, internal help desk lacked the necessary service tools and experience to handle the growth. Customer satisfaction levels were plummeting, and JCR knew that augmenting its staff wasn't a cost-effective solution.
The challenge was finding a company who could handle its unique product line and provide 24/7 support for the company's international customer base while delivering a consistent response approach.
PAI worked with JCR to develop a flexible plan to meet their needs. We delivered effective, multilingual, around-the-clock support tailored to the company's unique requirements while efficiently scaling our service to meet the natural product peaks and valleys of JCR's business.
PAI had an immediate, positive impact on customer satisfaction levels, and as call volumes increased, the cost-per-call for JCR decreased.
The company could concentrate on what it does best – providing support to health care companies – and, in the process, PAI became a partner with the company and now provides ongoing support during JCR's expansion.

About the Company
Hitachi Consulting is the global business and IT consulting company of Hitachi Ltd., and a recognized leader with deep industry, business, and technology experience. From business strategy development through application deployment, they are committed to helping clients quickly realize measurable business value and achieve sustainable ROI.
Hitachi Consulting was growing rapidly, but their internal IT infrastructure wasn't keeping up. The staff was becoming mired with the responsibility of providing day-to-day support, taking them away from their primary responsibilities. The company considered building and managing an in-house service desk but quickly realized it would be too expensive to build and too cumbersome to maintain.
Their IT issues didn't stop there. Their large team of field consultants, whose work is critical to their success, was experiencing frequent laptop issues, and their service vendor was slow to respond, decreasing their ability to operate at peak efficiency.
These problems were decreasing productivity across the board and resulting in lost revenue at a time when business was picking up.
PAI worked with Hitachi Consulting to develop a plan that would meet their needs and also fit their budget. We designed and delivered an efficient and responsive service desk that was able to exceed their high support standards. As the company expanded, we took over increased responsibilities, expertly handling matters such as network account administration, employment processing, and specialized laptop support.
PAI's extensive experience in the help desk and call center industry and its ability to develop tools and processes to consistently manage even the most complex requests gave Hitachi exactly what it needed.
Our service desk achieved a 90% first-call resolution rate at the least expensive service tier, with an overall resolution rate of 98%, which helped the company to control their costs. And field consultants who experienced laptop issues were able to quickly resume their responsibilities due to PAI's responsiveness and speedy turnaround.
No longer mired in technical issues, the company was able to function at full capacity and focus on its primary objectives. Hitachi Consulting kept its internal IT staffing the same, while the company tripled in size, growing from 485 employees to nearly 1500.
As a business partner with Hitachi Consulting, PAI has a vested interest in continually enhancing its service to the company and works with Hitachi to creatively solve problems.

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has concluded that healthy men should not undergo routine prostate-specific antigen testing(PSA), the New York Times reports. This news was reported in Physician's First Watch for October 7, 2011
The recommendation, which will be made available for public comment ...., was based on an analysis of five trials and applies to men of all ages. The Times quotes the task force's chairwoman: "Unfortunately, the evidence now shows that this test does not save men's lives ... This test cannot tell the difference between cancers that will and will not affect a man during his natural lifetime."
In 2008, the USPSTF recommended against PSA testing in men aged 75 or older, and said evidence was insufficient to recommend for or against testing in younger men.(PSA is a blood test.)
The Times further reported that there are 44 million such men in the United States, and 33 million of them have already had a PSA test — sometimes without their knowledge — during routine physicals.

Athabasca: A river changes
Cookie Simpson was born in a tent in the Dog Head Reserve, near the shores of Lake Athabasca. Her access to clean drinking water was as good as any city kid's, but it didn't involve a tap. Instead, she scooped water right from the lake with a cup.
"The water was so clear and blue. When you looked down you could see the bottom."
A lot has changed in her 60 years. A major dam on the Peace River reduced the flow of that river and oilsands development sprang up along the banks of the Athabasca River, all of which has been felt in the Peace-Athabasca Delta.
"Now it's just grey and dirty and you can see the oil floating on top. You can't drink it anymore."
She can't remember exactly when she stopped drinking from the lake. Gradually, she saw changes in the water. "It wasn't clean anymore."
"We knew long before the government even said anything, the people in Fort Chip knew that there was something wrong," said Simpson, a former nurse. "They knew that it was industry because that's where the water is coming from."
Simpson says her family used to live on wild foods and ate everything they caught. That included an array of fish, from pike to goldeye. Some of the fish now contain so much mercury that the government warns only limited quantities can be safely consumed each week.
Simpson still eats the fish.

MCS health program honored by St. Jude | Health
The Memphis City Schools HIV Prevention Project has been honored and recognized by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's SMILE and Link-To-Care Partnerships. SMILE is an acronym for Strategic Multisite Initiative for the Identification, Linkage and Engagement in Care of Youth with Undiagnosed HIV Infections. Under the guidance of MCS Exceptional Children and Health Services and project coordinators Sudie Cushman and Susan Lee, the HIV Prevention Project has been honored for its work throughout middle and high schools, as well as the city of Memphis.
Launched in 2003, the HIV Prevention Project provides district-wide professional development opportunities for MCS teachers and counselors. This project is funded through a competitive grant received from the Center of Disease Control. This program works to reduce disparities among populations of youth affected by HIV through various community outreach programs including HIV testing.
MCS HIV Prevention coordinators, Cushman and Lee, currently serve on St. Jude's Connect 2 Protect Coalition, a collaborative of community organizations focused on HIV prevention. Through their work, MCS students have an expanded knowledge of the disease when they leave the classroom and enter the community.

3.2 Natural dives The physiology of the diving response can be studied in the laboratory, but investigating the behaviour of a diving mammal in its natural environment can be more of a problem. However, modern physiological techniques have made it possible to record continuously physiological variables (such as heart rate) and information on depth and position during the spontaneous dives in the wild that are part of the animal's normal behaviour. Most such findings show that the majority of an animal's dives
2.7 … and becoming more intelligent Intelligence is a useful commodity: it can help an animal to make sense of its environment and cope with the demands of social behaviour (including courtship and competition). Hunters tend to be relatively intelligent, and otters, pinnipeds and cetaceans, for example, share a playful curiosity that is characteristic of animals that catch other animals for a living. Some especially extravagant claims have been made for the intelligence of the toothed whales, largely because these animals use c
2.5 … and getting larger Size offers a number of biological advantages, including some protection from predation, but it can also help in reducing heat loss. A large mammal has a large body mass (generating heat) relative to its surface area (losing heat). But there will be constraints on any evolutionary trend of increasing body mass in some aquatic mammals. Seals, sea-lions and toothed whales have to remain agile enough to chase their prey, and the pinnipeds as a whole have to be able to move about on land, but the
2.4 Staying warm … In this section, you will meet the term 'thermal conductivity' and you will be asked to accept that it is 'a measure of how readily heat flows from a particular material'. You may be uncomfortable about the lack of detailed explanation of how it is measured and of actual values and units. However, at al 2.3 Moving about Water is more viscous than air, so it can take more effort to move through water (try running in a swimming pool). Friction between the body and the water causes turbulence, which holds a swimmer back, and the faster the swimmer tries to move, the greater the turbulence. One way of avoiding the problem is to leave the water for short periods and travel through air, and some of the smaller pinnipeds and cetaceans resort to 'porpoising', leaping from the water for short periods when they ne Acknowledgements The content acknowledged below is Proprietary (see terms and conditions) and is used under licence.

That is to say, no one wants to eat coal or uranium, drink oil, breathe natural gas or be directly connected to an electricity supply. What people want is energy services – those services which energy uniquely can provide. Principally, these are: heat, for warming rooms, for washing and for processing materials; lighting, both interior and exterior; motive power, for a myriad of uses from pumping fluids to lifti 2.5 'Difference' and identity If differences on the basis of gender, ethnicity and disability are socially constructed, how should people view their identities, for example as men, or disabled people, or people of African–Caribbean origin? Where do such identities come from, and how useful are they in explaining people's experience of communication in care services? Foucault's ideas about changing discourses, and the ways in which they construct people's view of the world, can be applied to issues of ethnicity a Guernica 3D 3.3.2 Water pollution from coal mines Most underground and some surface mines lie well below the water table. Both therefore have the potential to pollute any groundwater that flows through them. The root cause of the problem is the action of aerobic bacteria on pyrite (FeS2) within the coal sequence. This process releases metal and sulphate ions into solution, which in turn causes the acidity of the mine water to increase: 1.7 How old is coal? Not surprisingly, the distribution of coal deposits through time corresponds closely to the origin and distribution of land plants. (This is discussed further in Section 4.) Coals are commonly found in rocks from Carboniferous times onwards, Devonian coals are rare, and pre-Silurian true coals are never found. This coincides with evidence for the evolution of land plants, which first appeared in Silurian times about 400 Ma (million years) ago, colonized the land surface rapidly through the De Reuters Today: Europe deal hands ECB watchdog role Walk, Run, Jump!

A group of condo owners who live on either side of the bridge have been aggressively supporting an alignment that would move the bridge a block or more north, saving their property from demolition but having major impacts on other parts of the neighborhood.

Although a friendly match against Irish's England-based exiles has been arranged, Doyle's side will effectively head into the Championship without a Test match since their final match of their last campaign – a 31-0 reverse to England.
Since then the Red Roses were able to play a further eight matches while Scotland and France both arranged autumn internationals.
And Doyle believes the lack of meaningful game time will be a major handicap for his troops heading into their clash against Wales on February 3.
He said: "The main reason it is a disadvantage is that we have not had the chance to build partnerships in the team.
"Getting the half-backs and back-row functioning as a unit is crucial. There are a number of half backs I would like to see tested but we will only have the one fixture [against the Exiles] in which to test combinations.
"It also means compared to the other countries our set-piece will be untried so we will have a lot of work to do in our training camp.
"Wales are in the same boat as us however and come the first fixture we will make sure we are ready for it."
Doyle has presented the IRFU with a 17-point plan in revamp the women's set up in the build up to the next World Cup, and is hopeful of arranging more friendly fixtures in the future.
But Doyle's immediate priority is selecting his starting XV to take on the Welsh.
His 32-strong squad, which will be cut to 26 in two weeks, shows several changes from the 2011 campaign with the likes of Tania Rosser, Gill Nolan and Deirdre O'Brien all cut.
The fact Doyle was able to omit such high-profile names demonstrates the new position of strength from which he is selecting.
And Doyle has high hopes for several of the promising youngsters he has included in his squad.
He added: "There's always talent coming through but this year there have been some very good players who have come in particularly from the junior clubs like Siobhan Fleming and Christine Arthurs from Tralee.
"This was without doubt the hardest squad, in terms of selection, I can remember picking.
"The standard is increasing each year and I am trying to combine the young talent with some more experienced heads.
"No one's place is safe anymore and it was not an easy decision to omit Tania, Gill or Deirdre but I think Irish fans should be really excited about some of the new players who have come in like Ashleigh Baxter at Belfast Harlequins."

Lake Park Elementary School students practice for the national archery competition
Twenty three Lake Park Elementary School students will compete against 7,000 of the nation's best archers next month.
The archery team has been practicing twice a week after schools and the archers say it's a lot of fun.
Coach Jeremy McKinley says more than 60 students auditioned for the team and he choose 23 archers who've come a long way since December. "I knew there was a lot of hard work that would go into training them, finding their aiming points, and hitting the target they needed to. Once things clicked, arrows started flying to where they needed to and they got higher scores" says McKinley.
The third through fifth graders have worked since December to learn the rules, how to set up, whistle commands, and improving their aim. When FOX 31 News observed archery practice we saw the archers mostly shoot in the yellow bulls eye and surrounding red area which are the highest scoring areas.
Students will travel to Louisville Kentucky in early May to compete for a national archery title.

I have 1 user with a Bold 9650 that keeps having problems with his contacts. I've updated the device with the Verizon OTA updates and that resolved the issues for a time, but now the device isn't showing changes to contacts that are made in Outlook. Any ideas?
What errors are showing if any in the BES logs?
Does the calender still sync fine after the updates?

The Treniers
The Treniers
Featuring twin brothers Cliff and Claude Trenier, the Treniers helped link swing music to rock & roll with their brand of hot jump blues in the late '40s and early '50s. To the latter-day listener, their early-'50s singles sound closer to swing than rock; indeed, Cliff and Claude had once sung with the Jimmie Lunceford Orchestra. The group did anticipate some crucial elements of rock & roll, though, with their solid, thumping beats, their squealing saxophone solos, and their song titles, such as "Rocking on Sunday Night," "Rockin' Is Our Business," and "It Rocks! It Rolls! It Swings!." The Treniers' brand of swing-cum-R&B was undoubtedly an influence on Bill Haley, who saw them when both acts were playing summer shows in Wildwood, NJ. They had work recorded for OKeh in the early '50s; by the middle of the decade, their sound was more R&B-oriented. Like many early R&B pioneers, they were unable to find success in the rock & roll era, though they appeared in a few of the first rock & roll films. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi

Stalins Sock Puppet « Back to Story
Showing 9 Comment(s) Subscribe by RSS Andrea Ostrov Letania December 10, 2012 at 11:39 AM "he denied the Holodomor, Stalin's deliberate, deadly starvation of some 12 million Ukrainians" Real number is closer to 4 million. Andrea Ostrov Letania December 10, 2012 at 11:38 AM "he denied the Holodomor, Stalin's deliberate, deadly starvation of some 12 million Ukrainians" Real number is loser to 4 million. Barrie November 26, 2012 at 9:54 AM I hope reviewers can see the parallels of this play with Miller's great play The Crucible. The similarity is that Miller brilliantly dramatized the cost of resisting a deluded totalitarian episode in Salem, stressing the same moral insights these playwrights do, but the differences are that McCarthyism was never remotely comparable to Stalinism or Islamism, nor was the Salem witch hunt fairly comparable with the history or principles of Christianity, which includes many episodes of persecution. And Miller was a conformist liberal secularist. Robert Alpert November 14, 2012 at 8:54 PM 12 million huh? what is the source please.? You see I have the archive numbers which were opened in 1993 and vetted by 3 American Historians oh someone says 6-8 million source it did you not learn that in school ?why 6 why 12 why not 8 billion? you can make up any numbers you want; you want to create your historical mythology I cannot stop you. Contradict the archives with sourced evidence . I have had it with intellectual dishonesty---even Arno Mayer admits that many deaths were caused because kulaks or rich peasants were killing their animals faster than Moscow could make tractors (The Furies) Play shmay the real question is intellectual honesty, B. Samuel Davis November 06, 2012 at 4:02 PM Interesting...when I first saw this article I assumed that the play was going to make Duranty out to be some kind of hero. Maybe people are finally realizing that there is a market for entertainment that is not the typical leftist propaganda we get so endlessly from our entertainment industry. Is anyone actually planning on putting this on? Mary Lowell November 06, 2012 at 6:07 AM Interesting, (more than that) new play. Nemickas November 05, 2012 at 10:44 PM Walter Duranty was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1932, not 1937. It was for 13 articles written in 1931, before the Holodomor of 1932-1933. Probably 6 to 8 million Ukranians were starved to death by Stalin, not 12 million. Duranty was a bad journalist, and an evil man, but it is important to keep the facts straight for credibility. David from NZ November 05, 2012 at 10:38 PM QED. Caleb T. Maupin November 05, 2012 at 8:54 PM Disgusting! Duranty has never had his pulitzer removed because he told the truth. The Ukrainian Nationalists in the U.S., many of which hold openly pro-Nazi sentiments hate him. He won't go along with their anti-communist persecution fantasies. The areas of the Ukraine hardest hit by the famine vote Communist by very high percentages. |

Stella; Monday Mine?, Twelvemile Arm, Kasaan Bay, Prince of Wales Island, Ketchikan District, Prince of Wales-Outer Ketchikan Borough, Alaska, USA
Latitude: 55°30'9"N
Longitude: 132°36'28"W
Longitude: 132°36'28"W
Geology: The Monday deposit is a quartz vein 4 to 14 inches thick along a shear zone (Brooks, 1902; Herreid and Rose, 1966). The quartz contains galena and pyrite; assays showed $5 to $8 per ton in gold (at $20.67 per ounce) and 15-40 ounces of silver per ton. The only workings are open cuts. There is no indication of work since 1901. The rocks in the vicinity of the Monday prospect are Silurian or Ordovician slate of the Descon Formation; sheared andesite forms one wall of the vein. The Stella prospect is nearby. Wright and Wright (1908) describe it as a 3-foot-thick quartz-calcite vein with gouge along one wall; the vein follows the contact between a diorite porphyry dike and black slate. The quartz carries pyrite, galena, and sphalerite. The gold content is low. The prospect was explored by a 130-foot tunnel, which Maas and others (1991) could not find.
Workings: The only workings on the Monday prospect are open cuts. The Stella prospect was explored by a 130-foot tunnel.
Age: Unknown, other than that the prospects are in Silurian or Ordovician rocks.
Commodities (Major) - Ag, Au, Pb, Zn
Development Status: None
Deposit Model: Polymetallic vein? (Cox and Singer, 1986; model 22c).

CBS Twitter feeds suspended
NEW YORK (AP) — The Twitter accounts for two national CBS programs have been compromised and suspended.
A CBS News spokeswoman confirms Saturday that tweets sent earlier in the afternoon from the "60 Minutes" and "48 Hours" Twitter handles saying their accounts were compromised are correct.
The tweets said the network is working with Twitter to investigate. On Saturday night both accounts were suspended and inaccessible.
Twitter did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The CBS spokeswoman didn't comment further.
Earlier in the day tweets coming from the 60 Minutes account seemed farfetched, including one that claimed the US government was "hiding the real culprit of the Boston bombing."

Tutankhamun made his way to the light, where two gods waited patiently. One wore the head of a bird, the other a dog. Their twin gaze burned into Tutankhamun's soul, judging him, warming him. He was welcome in this place. But something was missing. Tut looked around him in confusion. "Hey. Where's all my stuff?" The gods did not respond. "I had servants, food, righteous bling. Where is it? Customs?" The dog-headed one sighed. "No. Your things are not here." Tutankhamun frowned. "Unacceptable. I'm going back, and--" "No." The bird-head clacked its long beak. "Your possessions are not needed in this place." "Dammit! I want my stuff!" The boy king was used to having his way. "Not only are your things lost--" "What?!" He shrieked. "We built a fuckin pyramid 500 feet tall! How can it be 'lost'?!" "You lack understanding," Dog-head growled. "It has been eons. Thieves, researchers, treasure-hunters.

Exhibit A: The Harmonium
Ray plays the harmonium, a small, hand-pumped reed organ. It sounds like a cross between a mini church organ and an accordion, and has the accordion's "in-and-out" pumping action. She's a physical performer, and her choice of instrument allows her to really show it. There's nothing like watching her pump away at the organ while she rips a song apart with her voice.
Exhibit B: Holy Crap Awesomeness
Pianos might just be the perfect place to see her play. The stage is low to the ground and very small, and the audience can really get up close and personal with her and her band. So please, for the love of God, if you're not joining me at Glasslands to see High Highs, go to Pianos. It'll be the only time she's in New York until at least May.
Ray's got a myspace page and her very own website. She's got a pretty recent album out, Teenage and Torture, but it's an older one, A Fish Hook / An Open Eye (Extra points if you know what poem that title's from) that I HIGHLY recommend. You can find Teenage and Torture here, and virtually grab A Fish Hook… on Amazon here. As I mentioned above, she's on tour and is stopping just about everywhere in the U.S., and a few places in Canada too. See her myspace page for details.
