Two Down East Books Win IPPY Awards
Down East Books Win IPPY Awards! |
[Camden, Maine] Two Down East Books have won Independent Publisher Book Awards this year! Becoming Teddy Roosevelt: How a Maine Guide Inspired America's 26th President by Andrew Vietze, won a Silver Award in the "Best Regional Non-Fiction" category, and Chosen Faith, Chosen Land: The Untold Story of America's 21st-Century Shakers, by Jeannine Lauber, has won a Bronze Award in the "Religion" category. Chosen Faith, Chosen Land explores the world's only remaining Shaker community. Weaving together proprietary Shaker quotations, interviews, and photographs, the book exposes a multitude of popular misconceptions and myths, most notably that the Shakers and their faith are dead. The contemporary Shaker community has become surprisingly outward-reaching and in this book the author strives to place the topics of faith, community, work, and worship in the context of Shaker history and contemporary developments on the American landscape. Author Jeannine Lauber is a nationally recognized, multiple Emmy-Award winning broadcast journalist who has spent more than two decades covering the news. She lives in Casco, Maine. Becoming Teddy Roosevelt tells the story of how Theodore Roosevelt went into the Maine woods with legendary Maine Guide Bill Sewall, as a sickly, asthmatic city boy, and emerged several trips later as a robust, confident outdoorsman—the kind of man who could be president. This book describes the lifelong friendship between the twenty-sixth president and the lumberman from Island Falls, and explores how that bond changed Roosevelt (and the nation)… and why it matters today. Andrew Vietze is a freelance writer based in Appleton, Maine. The former managing editor of Down East magazine, he's written for a wide array of publications. He's currently finishing a thriller set in the North Woods during the lumbering era. Both books are published by Down East, which in addition to producing Down East: The Magazine of Maine for fifty-six years, has more than eight hundred books in print and, most recently, produces four branded Web sites—DownEast.com, MaineHomes.com, MaineBoatyard.com, and MaineVows.com. For more information about our books or any other Down East product, contact Ari Meil, Managing Editor, Books and Online: firstname.lastname@example.com or 207-594-9544 |

Checking out San Diego Zoo's newest baby panda
Xiao Liwu, a 5 1/2-month-old male panda, gets weekly checkups at the San Diego Zoo. Xiao Liwu was born at the zoo and has been on display for a limited number of hours since last week.

Xiao Liwu( Ken Bohn / San Diego Zoo / January 9, 2013 )
Xiao Liwu steps into his outside habitat at the San Diego Zoo as media members get their first glimpse of the cub. Panda staff say the cub is a confident climber but may have some tumbles while he's getting used to the new habitat, which features trees, a moat and rocks. Only 1,600 giant pandas are believed to exist in the wild, and the species is primarily threatened by habitat loss.

In another decisive BIG EAST victory, a rising St. John's pummeled the 10th-ranked University of Connecticut on Feb. 10 at world-famous Madison Square Garden.
The Red Storm victory over the Huskies was "a very compelling argument for St. John's to return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2002," declared the New York Daily News. It was St. John's third win over a top 10-ranked team at the Garden this season, and its fourth win over a top-13 team.
According to the New York Times, the game was "another memorable night in Lavinwood"—referring to the Red Storm's resurgence this season under Head Coach Steve Lavin. On Jan. 3, St. John's bean 13th-ranked Georgetown; on Jan. 15, 9th-ranked Notre Dame; and on Jan. 30, third-ranked Duke.
The Red Storm dominated the Huskies from the start. Over and over again, St. John's matchup zone managed to trap the Huskies ball handlers. Senior guard Dwight Hardy scored a career-high 33 points. Senior guard/forward D.J. Kennedy scored 11 rebounds and matched his season high of 20 points. Senior guard Malik Boothe scored a 37-foot three-pointer at the buzzer in the second half.
"There are those few moments—they don't happen very often—when you are able, even when you're a coach, to step back and take a deep breath and kind of enjoy as a fan what transpired," said Coach Lavin.
The Red Storm's next game is against the University of Cincinnati on Feb. 13. With winners in the classroom as well as the playing courts and fields, St. John's 16 Division I, BIG EAST men's and women's athletic teams reflect St. John's University's 141-year tradition of excellence in preparing students for leadership in their professions, communities and world.

Cable sector: Forget the Web, we have VOD
One of the most attractive benefits that Netflix, Hulu, iTunes, and other Internet movie services have to offer is that they're a cheaper alternative to paying monthly cable fees.
That may be one of the reasons why the cable companies are going on the offensive. The Cable & Telecommunications Association for Marketing Co-op, a group that includes Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Sony Pictures, and Universal Pictures announced on Wednesday it plans to spend $30 million on an advertising campaign designed to "expand consumer awareness...of (rental) movies on demand."

RE: Who is seeking forgiveness from whom?
I agree that Tia wanted forgiveness for herself for the affair and for giving her daughter away. Caroline wanted forgiveness for not living up to her standards as a parent and wife. I didn't see Juliette wanting forgiveness for herself so much as wanting understanding of the situation. Nathan wanted forgiveness, but his idea of forgiveness didn't involve taking any responsibility other than what was forced on him.

How to Make Sure You Hire the Right Ghost Blogger
Friday, January 25th, 2013You're busy, and you might not have time to keep up with your blog. So, what are you to do? Shut your blog down and miss out on the chance to increase brand awareness, engage your target audience, drive traffic to your website, generate leads, make sales, and so on? Of course not!
Instead, you should consider getting outside help in the form of a ghost blogger. A ghost blogger is someone who will write posts for your blog which will be published under your name. Now, some out there don't like the idea of using ghost bloggers, claiming that it's deceptive, inauthentic, and dangerous, but I disagree. And the truth is that it doesn't really matter what you or I think about it; companies are hiring ghost bloggers and that's not going to change. My goal is to help people hire the right ghost blogger.
That said, here are a few tips that will help you hire the right writer for the job.

When a child is ill or injured and requires emergency care, doctors, nurses, and paramedics will have many questions about his or her medical history. And even the most organized parent might not be able to remember the details of a child's health history in a stressful situation.
That's why it's important to keep a comprehensive record of your child's health information nearby. In many cases, this information can help a medical professional make quicker diagnoses and decisions during an emergency, when each second counts.
Read the categories below to learn more, and create a complete health record for your kids. Keep one copy of the record in an accessible place at home (such as on the refrigerator), one in each car, one at each parent's workplace, and one in each parent's bag or wallet. You should also supply your child's school or day care, as well as babysitters with this list, along with the name and number of your doctor.
Record on your list any known allergies your child has to medications, both prescription and nonprescription. Allergic reactions to insect stings and bites and food allergies are also important to list. In addition, some kids may have latex allergies. In many cases, allergy information helps medical personnel discover a cause for problems like seizures or difficulty breathing.
Certain medications can't be taken together, so paramedics need to know all medications (prescription and nonprescription) your kids take before they can administer any drug. A child's symptoms also could be due to side effects of medications, which is another reason it's important to report everything being taken. In addition, you need to know the doses, the dosing schedules, and when and how much of the medications were recently taken.
Pre-existing illnesses or conditions can have a great impact on the kinds of tests or treatments administered during an emergency. If your child has any health problem - from diabetes to epilepsy to asthma - emergency medical personnel must know. For additional protection, kids with chronic conditions should wear an identifying tag on a bracelet. This kind of immediate notification can help doctors save a child's life.
For a child with special needs, you and your doctor can fill out a form created by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP). The Emergency Information Form for Children With Special Needs can be found at either aap.org or acep.org and can be updated as needed.
As with any other health record you create, keep the form in an easily accessed place at home, in parents' vehicles, in parents' purses or wallets, at parents' workplaces, and with the child's belongings when traveling. The form should also be on file with your doctor, school nurse, and child-care center. It can also be filed in a repository (or database) that can be accessed by medical professionals in the event of an emergency.
List the dates your child has been hospitalized, the reasons for hospitalization, treatments received, and the types of operations he or she has undergone. This information may help during and following an emergency situation.
Keeping an updated record of all your kids' immunizations is important. If you need help remembering or compiling all the information, the staff at your doctor's office can assist you. Be sure to include information about any reactions a child may have had following an immunization, such as seizures, high fever , or severe discomfort.
When calculating medication doses, it can be helpful for doctors to know the approximate height and weight of the child. (But you'll need to change this information periodically, since kids often grow quickly.)
It's relatively easy to compile a written medical history, and it could mean saving critical minutes - when they count most!

In our louder and louder world, says sound expert Julian Treasure, "We are losing our listening."
In this short, fascinating talk, Treasure shares several ways to re-tune your ears for conscious listening -- to other people and the world around you.
First he says, reclaim silence. For at least a few minutes every day go to a room or a completely quiet place and listen to nothing, nothing at all. You need this to recalibrate.
Second, start consciously filtering noise. At a cocktail party hear the blender, the music, maybe in strain for the strings versus the guitar, and the hum of conversation.
And thirdly he offers an acronum for conscious listening with others…which Julian believes is the only way we'll ever understand one another.

The gang rape victim from India who arrived at Singapore's Mount Elizabeth Hospital on Thursday morning for treatment remains in critical condition.
The hospital's chief executive, Dr Kelvin Loh, said in a statement in the evening that the 23-year-old remains in "an extremely critical condition" as of 7pm.
"Prior to her arrival, she has already undergone three abdominal surgeries, and experienced a cardiac arrest in India," said Dr Loh
"A multi-disciplinary team of specialists is taking care of her and doing everything possible to stabilise her condition."
The victim, who is a medical student, was whisked to the hospital's intensive care unit this morning at 9.05am after she was flown in from New Delhi for further medical treatment by the Indian government.
On Dec 16, the student, who has not been named so far, was raped by six men in a bus she and her male companion has boarded to go home after watching a movie in a mall.
The six men, who have since been arrested, beat and gang raped the girl and then stripped her before throwing her and her male companion, who was also beaten, out of the bus.
The brutality of the crime in the capital city had triggered days of protests, even resulting in violent clashes, with protesters demanding justice for the student and the police.
The protests ebbed after 47-year-old police constable Subhash Chand Tomar died on Tuesday morning from injuries sustained during the protests. He was cremated with full police honours on Tuesday.

I'm glad to hear that the model is working well.
Re filesize:
1. Removing the unused channels saves about 5% of the (stripped) cr2 filesize.
2. The big difference between Poser 4 and Poser 5 is the material code: In the
stripped cr2, the channel code is less than 20%, the material definitions are about 80%

Then PREPARE YOURSELF! ... Job Interviews are tricky. They're going to be asking you for specific examples. They're going to be asking you for details, including names of people, dates, and outcomes ...
They'll ask you about lengthy projects you've been involved in — how your role evolved, how you handled deadlines, how you handled pressures and difficult personalities. They are going to be testing you. — Are you ready for their tough questions?
What you are about to discover here are over 177 MODERN, TRUST-BUILDING, FAITH-GENERATING, TOTALLY PERSUASIVE Job Interview Answers designed for today's savvy Hiring Managers and complex business world.
"I have been in the staffing business for 17 years, but your information on how to frame responses to questions gave me the confidence I needed to get *myself* a job! ... I also liked the behavior-based interview questions section — this is a technique that resurfaces over and over and it's important to be prepared for it. I will send my candidates to your site — it's great!" — Gina Padilla, Senior Corporate Recruiter » Read All Reviews
How would you respond? ...
Each interview question begins with a discussion then offers an easy-to-follow formula for coming up with your own winning answers — based on your own personal work experience. Then several word-for-word example answers are given for you to choose from to answer the question. There are over 80 interview questions covered in the Guide, with 177 convincing and professional sample answers that work for any type of job.
STRATEGY: This is a problem solving question that tests your critical thinking skills. This is a great question for showing that you are a creative and capable problem solver. The problem you select to use as an example should be as similar as possible to a problem that you are likely to face at the job you are interviewing for.
• Here's the proven formula:  (read this carefully)
"Sure, at my last job we had a problem where the situation was "X" ... the action I took was "Y" ... and the positive outcome was "Z" ... I was commended by Susan in Accounting for solving the problem and cutting costs about 15% for that project. I think that's the type of experience you are looking to bring to your team ... isn't it?"
• Learn how to cite specific numbers you contributed to achieving.
The Guide shows you several ways of coming up with these numbers based on your own work experience — It's as easy as fill in the blanks, and so powerful in your interview! — Learn to create statements like this:
"I think my experience with [Company XYZ] in [cutting costs 30% / saving 20 man-hours of work per week / increasing revenue by 14% / getting the job done about 50% faster / helping customers 20% more of the time] is the type of experience that will help me succeed in this role. Plus my strengths in [industry knowledge / time management / teamwork / special skill] make me a strong candidate." (Don't be bashful — You've gotta say stuff like this!)
... then get them to agree with you:
"You would agree that having this type of experience would probably help me succeed in this position ... wouldn't you?"
"Would that type of problem-solving experience be relevant to this job?"
Here's a more fully formed example answer to the above question:
"When facing problems on the job I try to take a systematic approach. I think it's important to clarify the problem first before you start coming up with possible solutions, or wasting other people's time. I also try to think about the best possible outcome, or what I want the result to be. FOR EXAMPLE, when I was at Job "X" ... (use one of your S.T.A.R. Statements here) ... and the result was a 15% increase in cost-savings for that project. What kinds of challenges are you as a manager currently facing in your department? ... What could the ideal candidate do to help solve this problem in their first couple months on the job?"
See how you followed up your answer with a great question about THEIR needs? ... Smart.
STRATEGY: This question reveals a lot about you. You want to indicate that what you liked best about your last job are things that will appeal to the Hiring Manager. Show that your last job allowed you to demonstrate many of the positive and desirable Behavioral Competencies that are discussed at the beginning of the Guide. Give specific examples of how your last job allowed you to flex your skills and show your maturity. When answering about what you liked least, keep it short and do not be negative.
"What I liked about my last job was the fact that there was good on the job training. I was able to really develop my "X" skills, which I know will help me succeed here if I am fortunate enough to be able to join your team. What are the qualities and skills of the people who have been most successful at this company?"
"One thing I liked about my last job was that it allowed me to develop my project management skills ... FOR EXAMPLE, I was put in charge of a project where I had to earn the "buy-in" of people from multiple different departments — and I had all the responsibility for getting this project completed on time but no real authority over my teammates. I was successful because I first created a project vision statement that the team agreed on. Then day-to-day I made sure that each team member completed their work on time. I did this in most cases by appealing to my teammates' own self-interests. FOR EXAMPLE ... "
"What I liked least about my last job was that the management style was pretty hands off, and this was fine for me because I am self-motivated and work hard to achieve. But the lack of structure sometimes allowed some of my teammates to slack off from time to time — and I often ended up having to pick up the extra work. I had to constructively approach my manager and let her know what was going on WITHOUT creating any friction between me and my co-workers. In the end, it worked out well, because I was pro-active. Have you ever run into that type of situation as a manager?"
STRATEGY: Show that you are able to learn from your mistakes, but don't offer up any negative examples concerning your past performance. Show that you have been successful, but that you have the maturity it takes to examine your own behavior so that you can learn and grow and be a better employee. Be brief.
"Good question. Well, I have been successful at every job I have had, but I have had the normal ups and downs. I'd say that I do actively try to monitor the quality of my work so that I can constantly be improving myself. FOR EXAMPLE, I have had one or two hiccups with customers where their satisfaction was not where I thought it was. I learned that I have to really monitor certain difficult customers closely and "take their temperature" so I can keep their satisfaction level as high as possible. Have YOU had any customers like that here?"
STRATEGY: This is a "behavioral interviewing" style of question. The Hiring Manager wants to learn more about your thought process, and how well you can form examples to answer this teamwork related question. You will want to show your ability to solicit ideas from others, listen carefully, and persuade people to your point of view.
"Working with others allows you data-mine other people's skills and experiences, and get perspectives and ideas that you would not have on your own, AND check the quality of your own work before it goes out the door. FOR EXAMPLE, at Job "X" I worked with many great people. I was able to "pick their brains" — so to speak — about the effectiveness of various techniques, and get estimates on how long it would take to get various things done, etc. — I would not have been able to do my job as effectively without them."
"Would that type of experience be relevant to this job? ... Great! ... So when do I start? ..." (don't be afraid so throw some humor in if it's going well!)
"Well, I have worked both independently and as a member of team, throughout my career. I enjoy both, and I can do both equally well. I will have to say, though, that working with others has often produced great results for projects I have worked on — specifically when it comes to brainstorming. When it's appropriate, I try to get the key stakeholders involved in coming up with new solutions. I did that a lot at Job 'ABC'. FOR EXAMPLE ... and the OUTCOME was a roughly 30% increase in cost-savings for the company, and a significant decrease in the time it took to get that process done."
STRATEGY: You'll want to be very specific here, and frame your answer in terms of how you saved time and money. Use your personal "metrics of success" — these are simple numbers you write down and remember before the interview; like the hours of time you saved by your smart decisions, and the dollar amounts of revenue or cost-savings you generated. Remember, the Guide shows you how to make these up, giving you fill-in-the-blanks templates for creating your own "metrics of success" numbers based on your past work experience — and it works for ANY type of job history. This is a MUST HAVE for your interview. Please be prepared with this!
"Well, my role was ongoing and it required a lot of communication and teamwork with my team as well as the client. I think my role really was to clarify the scope of the project, and then "manage the client's expectations." We were able to deliver on time, and the client was thrilled! I was able to make sure no time was wasted on adding unnecessary features. and since we were working on a fixed bid price, we saved my company time and money. I estimate I contributed to a cost savings of about $20,000 on that project. My manager and everybody on my team felt great because the project went so smoothly ... Is that the kind of experience that would help me be successful here?"
"My role in the success of our last big project was contributing to [cutting costs 30% / saving 20 man-hours of work per week / increasing revenue by 14% / getting the job done about 50% faster / helping customers 20% more of the time]. I was able to achieve this by using my [industry knowledge / time management & planning / teamwork / special skills] ... FOR EXAMPLE ..."
STRATEGY: Workplace stress is an issue for everyone. Don't pretend that you never get stressed out. You want to show that you can deal with stress and cope with difficult situations. Show that you are calm under pressure, and know how to avoid stress in the first place through planning and time management.
"Well I think it's important to remember that stress effects everyone, and it's inevitable that sometimes people are going to have bad days. But what I do personally is plan ahead and try to manage my time as best as possible. If something happens, I try to control my response to a situation. You can't always control what happens to you, but you CAN control your own response. What I try to do is lengthen the time between the stressful situation and my response ... Would you say it is a stressful environment here? ... I see. I'm sure I can handle it. I have been tested like that before ... FOR EXAMPLE ...."
"For example, on several occasions I have had to deal with very irate customers who actually yelled at me. What I did was stay calm and not let them get under my skin. I really tried to listen and decide exactly what it was that was at the root of their problem. Then I provided solutions that could be completed within a specific time-frame. I always find it's best to face those types of situations head-on and be objective about them. I do my best to be professional and not get my emotions involved. Does that make sense? ... I hope I've answered that question to your satisfaction?"

Thursday Dec 5 | Lincoln Journal

…or how to put a map of your blogposts on your blog.
I recently started a little pet project with a "photo a day" blog. I thought it could be fun to geocode each blogpost with to the place where each photograph was taken, and then place each photo on a map, similar to the flickr map I created earlier.
The most common way of geocoding an atom feed, is by adding a <georss:point>[latitude] [longitude]</georss:point> field for each entry. However, the blogengine I'm using currently doesn't support that, so I will also try and find the location using a magic string in the blogpost, in this case "Location: [latitude] [longitude]". You will notice that the posts I made so far, all have this at the end of the post. This might not be the most elegant solution to geocoding your blogposts, but it should work for any type of blog.
So the first step is to create a WebRequest that will download the feed (this could be simplified by using the WebClient, but I like the full control of the WebRequest):
System.Net.WebRequest request = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(
new Uri("http://socaldaily.sharpgis.net/syndication.axd?format=atom", UriKind.Absolute));
request.BeginGetResponse(new AsyncCallback(createRssRequest), new object[] { request, this });
Begin get response handler:
private static void createRssRequest(IAsyncResult asyncRes)
object[] state = (object[])asyncRes.AsyncState;
System.Net.HttpWebRequest httpRequest = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)state[0];
Page page = (Page)state[1];
if (!httpRequest.HaveResponse) { return; }
System.Net.HttpWebResponse httpResponse = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)httpRequest.EndGetResponse(asyncRes);
if (httpResponse.StatusCode != System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK) { return; }
Stream stream = httpResponse.GetResponseStream();
page.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() => { page.ParseAtomUsingLinq(stream); });
When the request comes back, it will call our ParseAtomUsingLinq method with the response stream. The LINQ expression will select basic parameters like title, date, link, contents and if available, the georss location point.
private void ParseAtomUsingLinq(System.IO.Stream stream)
System.Xml.Linq.XDocument feedXML = System.Xml.Linq.XDocument.Load(stream);
System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"; //Atom namespace
System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace georssns = "http://www.georss.org/georss"; //GeoRSS Namespace
//Use LINQ to select all entries
var posts = from item in feedXML.Descendants(xmlns + "entry")
select new
Title = item.Element(xmlns + "title").Value,
Published = DateTime.Parse(item.Element(xmlns + "updated").Value),
Url = item.Element(xmlns + "link").Attribute("href").Value,
Description = item.Element(xmlns + "summary").Value,
Location = fromGeoRssPoint(item.Element(georssns + "point")) //Simple GeoRSS <georss:point>X Y</georss.point>
foreach (var post in postsOrdered)
ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.MapPoint point = null;
if (post.Location != null)
point = post.Location; //Use GeoRSS location
point = ExtractLocation(post.Description); //Search for location in blog content
if (point == null) continue; //We didn't find a point
string imageSrc = ExtractImageSource(post.Description, post.Url); //try and find an image to use for symbol
//TODO: Add points to map...
You will notice in the above code we use three utility methods for extracting data. First we have a method that converts the simple GeoRSS format "<georss:point>X Y</georss.point>" to a point. In this case I'm using the MapPoint class from the ESRI ArcGIS Silverlight API, since I wan't to use that to draw my entries on the map.
private ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.MapPoint fromGeoRssPoint(System.Xml.Linq.XElement elm)
if (elm == null) return null;
string val = elm.Value;
string[] vals = val.Split(new char[] { ' ' });
if (vals.Length != 2) return null;
double x = double.NaN;
double y = double.NaN;
if (double.TryParse(vals[1], out x) && double.TryParse(vals[0], out y))
return new ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.MapPoint(x, y);
return null;
If this doesn't return any results (usually if the feed is not georss enabled), we will during the loop look for the location tag in the entry content, using the following helper method:
private ESRI.ArcGIS.Geometry.MapPoint ExtractLocation(string description)
int idx = description.LastIndexOf("Location: ");
int idx2 = description.LastIndexOf("
");
if (idx < idx2 && idx > -1)
string sub = description.Substring(idx, idx2 - idx);
string[] vals = sub.Split(new char[] { ' ' });
foreach (string val in vals)
if (val[0] == 'N')
double.TryParse(val.Substring(1), out y);
else if (val[0] == 'S')
if (double.TryParse(val.Substring(1), out y)) y *= -1;
else if (val[0] == 'E')
double.TryParse(val.Substring(1), out x);
else if (val[0] == 'W')
if (double.TryParse(val.Substring(1), out x)) x *= -1;
if (!double.IsNaN(x) && !double.IsNaN(y))
Lastly, we will search for the first  entry in the body and use that for displaying the entries on the map:
private string ExtractImageSource(string description, string feedlink)
int idxSrc = description.IndexOf("= 0)
int idxSrc2 = description.Substring(idxSrc).IndexOf("src=\"");
int idxSrc3 = description.Substring(idxSrc + idxSrc2 + 5).IndexOf("\"");
if (idxSrc2 >= 0 && idxSrc3 >= 0)
string src = description.Substring(idxSrc + idxSrc2 + 5, idxSrc3);
Uri uri = new Uri(src, UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
if (uri.IsAbsoluteUri) return uri.AbsoluteUri;
Uri page = new Uri(feedlink, UriKind.Absolute);
return new UriBuilder(page.Scheme, page.Host, page.Port, src).Uri.AbsoluteUri;
In our feed entries loop, we can now simply construct a graphic, set a few attributes that we will use for binding the look for the symbol (ie title and image) and add it to our graphics layer. The symbol I use here is the same as used for the flickr application mentioned above.
ESRI.ArcGIS.Graphic g = new ESRI.ArcGIS.Graphic()
Geometry = point,
Symbol = myFeedSymbol
g.Attributes.Add("Title", title);
g.Attributes.Add("ImageURI", src);
g.Attributes.Add("WebURI", link);
You can view the blog map in action here: http://socaldaily.sharpgis.net/page/Photo-map.aspx
Note that there are several ways to geocode blogposts, and this approach only deals with the simplest version.

ESRI Silverlight API | Google Maps | Silverlight
FINALLY we released the beta of our new ArcGIS client API for Silverlight and WPF the end of this week.
You can download the beta here, where you also can find links to documentation and samples. Note that the download requires an ESRI global account, which you can create for free.
Art has the details on his blog.
This his has been (well still is since it's beta :-) a great fun project to work on. We tried to design it to be similar to our JavaScript and Flex APIs, but at the same time make it more ".NET" when it made sense, or taken advantage of capabilities Silverlight had. We really look forward to the feedback from you, as well as talking to anyone who's at the ESRI Developer summit next week. I'll be there Monday through Thursday, mostly hanging out at the showcase area, so if you're there, stop by say hi and get to see the API first hand. Art and Rex will be doing an intro session Wednesday at 1pm, and I'll join them Thursday 10:15am for the advanced session.
Below is a simple flickr application that I created for the api, (source is available for download at the code gallery). Just zoom to any area of interest, hit the flickr button, and images in that area pops up. The sample demonstrates the power of templating the symbols which allows you to associate animations to states of the symbols, as well as using binding. This is really no different than the states model used in other Silverlight controls. The flickr symbols here has two states: MouseOver, which zooms the image and displays a small description at the bottom. The result box to the left uses the selection state when you hover on the features to first scale the image slightly and highlight the border, and if you stay hovering on it, will expand to full size. Click the result to center on that feature.

For example, I have been able to reproducibly get error messages like this (and failed tasks) when trying to run a PVM job STARTING from my laptop connected by wireless to my home network. Note how odd this is. The interface is wireless, sure, but as far as userspace software is concerned this is just another /dev/eth* device -- it has an IP number etc and in all ways behaves just like TCP/IP over ethernet, just slower and with more randomly dropped packets as I move around. To make matters worse, I can -- reproducibly -- USE the laptop as a SLAVE node in the same computations. Needless to say, ssh is enabled correctly in both directions, the same distro is on all systems, same version of PVM, PVM starts perfectly on wireless and wired nodes... I went as deep into the cause of failure as PVM permits with its debug options and could determine only that some networking command was failing on the wireless interface (only). I'm >>guessing<< that this is due to a lack of support for e.g. multicasting or the like at the level of the wireless access point itself, but it is very difficult to know for sure without trying to debug pvm at the source code level. So I don't know why you're getting the message, but it could be related to hardware -- a switch or NIC that doesn't implement some required feature that isn't terribly well documented... rgb -- Robert G.

Mavs Postseason Begins Now
Posted by tfoley36 on 8th May 2012
The Mavs title defense went about as well as most Mavs fans expected. The front office let a lot of key pieces walk in order to free up cap space. Defensive anchor Tyson Chandler went to New York, JJ Barea went to Minnesota and DeShawn Stevenson went to New Jersey. These 3 key players helped to raise the banner in Dallas. Mark Cuban wants to bring in big names to take some pressure off superstar Dirk Nowitzki. With Cuban not resigning these key pieces the Mavs limped through the regular season and were swept by upstart Oklahoma City. However this was not the postseason the Mavs hope to win this year. The need to win the offseason. They have a long list of superstars on their radar. The number one target is Deron Williams of the New Jersey Nets. DWill would come in and be the explosive point guard that would take the scoring load off of Dirk Nowitzki. Other possible free agents Dallas has in their sights are Steve Nash, Roy Hibbert and Ray Allen as well as bringing back their own free agents Jason Terry, Jason Kidd and Delonte West. With a starting 5 consisting of Deron Williams, Vince Carter, Shawn Marion, Dirk Nowitzki and Roy Hibbert with Jason Terry being the Sixth Man the Mavs would return to the top of the Western Conference and have title number 2 in their sights.

Mongolia's ambassador to Japan, Mr. Sodovjamts Khurelbaatar, visited Rissho Kosei-kai headquarters in Tokyo on June 15. He conferred with Rev. Yasutaka Watanabe, chair of Rissho Kosei-kai's Board of Trustees. Rev. Yoshio Jinbo, president of Kosei College of Nursing (KCN), and Rev. Shoko Mizutani, director of Rissho Kosei-kai International, were also present.
Rissho Kosei-kai and KCN started a joint program with the Health Sciences University of Mongolia (HSUM) in December 2009, to create opportunities for HSUM students to study nursing at KCN. The Mongolian government coordinates the program to develop human resources in the field of medicine in that country.In November 2010, the first two students came to Japan. After studying the Japanese language, they enrolled in the KCN last April.
During the talk, Mr. Khurelbaatar thanked Rissho Kosei-kai for its support of the Mongolian students and said he hoped Rissho Kosei-kai's teaching and religious spirit would enhance their nursing skills. Before the meeting, Mr. Khurelbaatar visited the Great Sacred Hall and was given a tour of Kosei General Hospital.
