Forget the does-it-tell-a-nationalist-story, is-it-chronological debate. The answers are definitely yes; it is a many splendoured, dreamcoat of stories, each hung about a precious historic object, and there is an outline time-scale that helps visitors get their bearings but does not strait- jacket the displays. And no, it does not let its lovely national treasures - such as Mary Queen of Scots' jewels and the Holyrood chapel silver - get swamped in jingoism or confrontation between oppressive rulers and emerging national pride.
The real issue here, assuming that the collections are properly preserved, is whether people will find the museum interesting enough to come back. Dr David Clarke, the head of exhibitions, insists that a visit should be a pleasurable, visual experience, and that it is designed not for specialists but for those with little prior knowledge. Despite this liberalism, Clarke is a convincing purist when it comes to what is on show. Mock-ups and recreations of the past that rely heavily on imagination are out. For Clarke, they are tantamount to "giving a complete statement of certainty about what the past was like" which, he explains, "would be wrong. The public deserves the truth."
The result is that, at this museum, what you see is what the experts know, and the story of Scotland on show here is based entirely on the objects in Scotland's national collections. But the question for today's visitor is whether the objects' stories can be told vividly enough merely with explanation panels, captions and multi-media interpretation and using barely 30 computers in total around the museum?
Less than three days before the opening, it is still difficult to be sure. The computers are not yet online. The rooftop restaurant is not open. Half the display panels are waiting to be mounted, and the Discovery Centre is not set up. Some impressions are clear, though, and it is not just the panoramic views of Edinburgh Castle that take your breath away.
Step inside the round tower reception area and what hits you first is the sequence of spaces. Galleries open one into another, different sizes, different shapes, all with pale walls that are wood-panelled to look like large blocks of stone and inset with deep display cases. Shafts of daylight stream through arrow-slit windows and cascade down from the roof lights. There is room to ponder and enjoy every item on display.
Start in Beginnings - better known as geology - and you can see how Scotland was formed 3 billion years ago, and how its ice-age woodlands looked before you move on to the next "epoch", Early People. At the arrival of the first settlers, you find prehistoric Scotland prefaced by groups of figures sculpted by Eduardo Paolozzi.
Up a level to The Kingdom of the Scots, 1100 to 1707AD, when Scotland was a nation in its own right, and you come to some of the most precious medieval and Renaissance relics - exquisite miniature portraits, church silver, Bonnie Prince Charlie's sword and "targe" (shield) and the treasured 8th-century Monymusk reliquary. Beneath the tiny, portable shrine and beside its solemn pedigree is a caption written by one of the museum's junior advisory group: "I can hardly believe that it held a bone of St Columba."
Another young writer's verdict sits beside the Ellesmere locomotive, Scotland's oldest surviving steam loco. Standing near the huge Newcomen engine built into the centre of the museum's huge central galleries, it is dedicated to the role Scots people played in commerce, industry and science in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Thanks to the 12-member Junior Board, set up three years ago with 9- to 12-year-olds drawn from all over Scotland, the museum also has a Discovery Centre. What the group really really wanted was "dark rides", Dr Clarke admits. They lost that one, but won a dedicated children's hands-on centre in what should have been the temporary exhibition gallery.
As a result the Twentieth Century gallery, on the top floor, is the only temporary exhibition. Due to change after three years, it is a hotchpotch of objects chosen by Scots people and personalities as items that have had most impact on life in Scotland this century. Tony Blair's suggestion was an electric guitar. Others went for televisions, Thermos flasks and favourite toys.
Although the idea is fun, somehow it feels like a lightweight solution that has floated up to the top of the building, not a proper attempt to address current issues. It may seem less frothy when the computerised bank of personal reasons and recollections goes live next week. In fact, the museum will not be fully up-and-running, with free guided tours, children's workshops, trails and activities, until January, which is probably the time to judge it.
Meanwhile, though, they could do with a bit more interactive interpretation. Dr Clarke looks right when he suggests that "objects open windows on the past more vividly than anything else". As for the modernist architecture: it works brilliantly from the inside and the top but whether it is in the right location is another matter.
The New Museum of Scotland, Chambers Street, Edinburgh (0131-247 4219), will open daily from December 1 from Monday to Saturday between 10am and 5pm (Sundays from 12noon to 5pm and on Tuesdays until 8pm). Admission is pounds 3 (pounds 5 for a season ticket) for adults, pounds 1.50 (pounds 2.50 for a season ticket) for students, senior citizens and the unemployed, and pounds 9 for a family season ticket. Tickets are also valid for the Royal Museum next door, which houses Scotland's international collections.

On the eve of the 25th....of October
it snowed!
and while I'm baking hundreds ( ok, more like 50 or 60) mini cupcakes for Beli's fall festival at school
she is practicing her own photo taking skills.
7 comments:
I have been following you from a far, and just dropping in to say I am amazed at how Beli has grown. Do not worry about the languages disappearing from her every day life. The mind is a wonderful thing. It stores the potential for a language and activating it one day will be a easy. Glad you are working and I know as every working mother you have a guilty conscience. I am sure that love that you bring to Beli is more then plenty to make up for the lost time.
I miss the squirrels from DC. Every time I see them here, and that is very rarely, I reminisce.

Muslims in Mannaar expose systemic inability of SL State in delivering justice to victims
Muslims in Mannaar expose systemic inability of SL State in delivering justice to victims
Polling booths to be clustered at Tellipalai[TamilNet, Friday, 09 January 1998, 23:59 GMT]Polling booths from the high security zone, encompassing Palaly, Tellipalai, Kankesanthurai, Keerimalai, Maaviddapuram and Mayiliddy are to be clustered in Tellipalai, said sources in Jaffna. The booth cluster is to be at the Prisoners Rehabilitation Centre in the area. It is believed that 2 - 3 booths are to be clustered here. There will be 404 polling booths in the Jaffna peninsula for the local government polls due on January 29, according to the elections commissioner's office in Jaffna Clustering of booths, first seen in Northeast during the 1988 Provincial Council elections is, according to election officials, done to ensure that adequate security is provided to booths and voters from attacks to disrupt the election. However, critics of clustering polling stations say that on every occasion clustering has been resorted to, the overbearing presence of the military has intimidated voters and has led to election malpractice such as stuffing votes and intimidating election officials.

All the other mainly permanent residences were lovely and very helpful the next Supermarket is a bit far. Very quiet and peaceful surrounding.

When you struggle with issues like managing money, procastination, organization, and household chores it is vital that you hold yourself accountable for completing tasks the will improve how you live. The paradox is the more that you struggle the less you want to held accountable. A good way to hold yourself accountable is to focus on the positive changes that you are making. One area that I struggle with is household chores. Over the last year I have used twitter to help hold myself accountable when it comes to completeing chores.
Today, in addition to using twitter I set up a written log to help make me accountable.

By writing down my tasks it makes me feel more positive about what I accomplished, and it also will help me in managing my time to complete these tasks in the future. Writing down tasks is a good tool for holding yourself accountable, if you need a little more help with accountability might I suggest you look into the ADD Action Club.

I'm thinking about buying one instead of the Tannoy iwSA 500 D. My only concern is that it might not have the kind of current output I like.Doesn't matter, all that is handled by the surround sound processor these days and I'm not a big fan of subwoofers with two-channel systems, which is why I still can't get my head wrapped around what the HK 990 is for. I suspect it was probably designed with something like the JBL LS Series in mind .
So, this Parts Express amp/crossover has a 3 dB bump filter at 25 Hz (or you can use the EQ at ~25 Hz instead if you need more boost), the 1500 Array has a 4 dB bump filter at ~25 Hz and the BX63/BX63A has a 6 dB bump filter at ~25 Hz. Some people don't like any bump filters with their B380 or B460 (it is room dependent). My point is, this Parts Express offering has a bit more versatility. Some people/manufacturers use plate amps instead.

Unfortunately, the delegate count is rapidly becoming a moot point. I am a Democrat and Clinton supporter but I see our party throwing away the November election again! Thanks to stupid decisions by Howard Dean and the other Democratic powerbrokers making stupid rules the party hierarchy has doomed the candidate for president to defeat whomever it may be.
If Obama wins the nomination I and most of my friends will vote for McCain and I understand that will be the case for some Obama people if Clinton wins and in either case that will give the presidency to the Republicans. It is too late to mend the divide between the Obama and Clinton supporters. The party has polarized its own members, a big mistake. If, as many people say, Obama is the choice then all his baggage will come to light because the Republicans are experts at showing the worst of their opponent. Clinton is the only one with a chance of winning over McCain and the only one capable of taking away some of McCains support but that will not be enough if the Obama supporters vote Republican.
John McCain might as well pack his bags and his wife can start picking out furniture for their new home in the White House thanks to the incompetence of the Democratic leadership.
Agree with everything David Parker said regarding the state of play at the moment, Obama needs to prove himself and Cliton just needs to keep racking up those wins to put preasure on all of the numbers that are floating out there.
Just cast the vote for Obama and end the the Hill-thrill ride....
I just posted over on MSNBC's First Read about this: I feel like Howard Dean is swinging at a piñata filled with superdelegate "candy", but he's not actually BUSTING it open, just leaking out the candy, and Obama's always the first one under it. Hilly's like the fat kid who has to dig through the pile to get a Tootsie Roll. She's gotten, what, 5 SDs since February? Howie needs to crack it so we can all go in for cake and presents. Do we get a Goodie Bag?
(PS – How come a lot of my comments sit in "moderation" and never get posted? I'd like to think it's 'cause I'm such a firebrand... haha, yeah right. And how come people who say "How come you never post me?" always get posted when they say that? You guys are sure jokers...)
By the time they make up their minds there won't be a Democratic party to support. All this in-party fighting is destroying it.
Pennsylvania You ROCK!
California Loves you!!!!
Hillary all the Way!
Undecided, undecided undecided... WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY?..by now all superdelegates heard enough debates, speeches, pools and pools of pools to make up their mind. Those that are still not able to decide DON'T QUALIFY TO BE A SUPERDELEGATE AND SHOULD LOOSE THEIR STATUS- PERIODE!!
I wish the superdelegates would just cast their votes and be done with it. If you are for Hillary say so, If you are for Obama say so. The superdelegates that are holding out seem to have no backbone. They are elected officials who should be able to make a decision and stick by it, but instead they stand not for the people, but for themselves; what if I vote and people get angry, what if I vote and lose my next election, what if; what if; what if. Voters we should look at the superdelegates from each of our states and make a conscious decision that if they cannot vote then they are not worthy of our vote. Get them out of office and get someone in that can make a decision. Why would anyone in a position such as the superdelegates stand by and watch their party self destruct because they are self centered. I have lost all hope in the party, in the elected officials and the way we as democrats are fighting, in the people who I thought had a common interest. If you love Hillary that is o.k., but stop with the hate, If your are for Obama that is o.k. but stop with the hate. What makes any of us any better if we act in the same manner that we say we despise. Let's be Christians and act Christ like and make good sound decisions for our families, nation and ourselves. God Bless!!!!!
All of this "changing-minds" stuff is for weak people. Wimp.
just do the right thing and endorse Obama the next great Progressive
Democratic President of the United States
It ain't Hillary that's killing the party – with 90% of the African American vote, I believe we can say that the party splitter is Obama and he's doing it down racial lines.
He won the far left caucuses where only the farthest left 10% of the party even bothers to show up. Other than that, he's a loser. He outspends 3 and 4 to 1 and doesn't close. I want a President who accomplishes 100% of the goal with 25% of the money instead of Obama's 0% of the goal with 100% of the money.
Folks just want to make themselves feel better by saying they back the African American because somehow that proves that they're not racists. If you choose him as your nominee, it's going to be a sad day because once he hits the big court, he's going to get his buttocks handed to him on a platter. Between he and his supporters arrogance and sarcasm, he's alienated over 50% of Hillary supporters. Throw in religious independents and all of the Republicans and, well, you can count. The biggest mistake you make is thinking that the nomination is the end game.
He should vote as the people he represents do. Simple.
The super-delegates should not be rushed into a decision they might later regret. The purpose of the super-delegates is to INDEPENDENT of the primary process – to make up their minds in accordance with what they feel would be best for the country, party, etc. Those individuals who initially backed Hillary and later "changed their minds" because of "how their district voted" shouldn't be eligible for any "profile in courage" awards anytime soon.
Leadership is about making tough decisions, this should be easy for you considering the situations you face as a Governor. Step up and be a leader, choose one or the other it's that simple. We all know exactly what each stand for by now. The SD's need to stop letting this party go into the tank because they are too scared to demonstrate decisive leadership.
Alpha, Beta and Gamma
Say 'Goodbye Obama'
Each heard loud and clear voice
Hillary is THE sane choice
Theta, Kappa and Pi
Obama,its a humble goodbye
Come hail, storm, rain or dew
Hillary, keep your march to Penn. Avenue
I think the DNC should end the super dummy's after the nominee is decided. It seems that like the attention there getting, it's probably a lot more attention then they get at home.
I really think its time for a change no longer recycling same names at the white house. Let the tussle be over. At least with the current results, it is evident that Obama cuts across racial divide and appears more generally acceptable by his numerous wins in several states. Despite Clinton's vantage point right from the beginning of this race, Obama over took her and is now in lead. This shows his viability for the white house.
I think the superdelegates have a right to wait and see how the candidates fair in the next contests especially if it is their State. Of course, it would be great if some would make up their minds from last night's primary in Pennsylvania. But I can certainly understand their hesitancy. I don't believe that these superdelegates should be bullied in any way. I believe that is how Senator Obama's camp has worked in the past (and who knows still might be). That is their tactic and I think it is pretty disgraceful if you ask me. Just let these superdelegates make up their own minds based on their OWN opinion of whoever candidate they believe is the stronger one in which to give them their endorsement. Just leave them alone already. They have a tough choice to make enough as it is. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!
PLEASE SPELL LIAR CORRECTLY IF YOU ARE AN OBAMA SUPPORTER, you're suppose to be the smart ones. HA. Check again about who is the liar, like, didn't hear Wrights speech but then later admitted he did. AND a few other ones. They are politicians, they all lie. They say what you want to hear, that's why they need experience so you can judge which are lies and which aren't. He is smart, he's waiting to see which way the wind blows and who will be able to win in Nov. Sorry, but don't think Obama can do it in Nov. Things are just now coming out about him, and people are worried that they don't know that much about him. His books are all about his father, but what about his mother and his grandparents who raised him. He wasn't on welfare, he went to an elite school in Hawaii.
Why have people vote when you guys are the going to decide who the nominee is going to be. Stupid! if this election is stolen, the people will not sit back and accept this. Expect backlash.
CLINTON GO HOME (and take your stupid wife with you)!
Please Mr Parker! Do the right thing for the party and vote for Hillary. it is becoming more clear each day that Obama will not win in the general election. He can not win the big states even with his4 to1 dollar advantage. Do not let our party nominate yet again another super Liberal who is seen as snide, out of touch and rightly or wrongly seen as less than patriotic. wE HAVE BEEN DOWN THAT PATH TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE. Stop Obama before he destroys any chance that we may still have to beat McCain. The hard core Hillary supporters will not end up voting for Obama.
Hillary CANNOT win the nomination, period!, it is too late now.Let's talk about electability, who is more electable the guy who won twice as many states as her, won more delegates and more popular votes? or her, gimme a break.
wE HERE IN NC WILL PAY OUR ELECTED LEADERS BACK THSI FALL IF THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THE PEOPLE'S WILL. THOSE THAT HAVE ALREADY GOT SOME ON THE OBAMA TRAIN. THE REST CAN WAIT IF THEY WANT TO. THEY WILL BE LEFT AT THE STATION (REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATS). MARK THESE WORDS THAT IS WHAT IS ON THE GRAPEVINE. WE ARE SICK AND TRIED. JESSIE HELMS AND THAT CREW ARE GONE WITH THE WIND. THIS IS A NEW DAY AND NEW CENTURY. WE WANT CHANGE AT THE TOP. WE KNOW WE CAN CHANGE OUR BOTTOM. HRC AND HER CREW ARE NOT PART OF THE FORMATION OF THIS MORE PERFECT UNION OF FOR THE PEOPLE AND BY THE PEOPLE.

FDA OKs Enbrel for Kids With Plaque Psoriasis »
"The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a supplemental biologics license application for use of etanercept (Enbrel, Amgen) in children aged 4 years and older with chronic moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidate"...
Read the FDA OKs Enbrel for Kids With Plaque Psoriasis article »
TAZORAC® (tazarotene) Gel 0.05% and 0.1% are indicated for the topical treatment of patients with stable plaque psoriasis of up to 20% body surface area involvement.
TAZORAC® (tazarotene) Gel 0.1% is also indicated for the topical treatment of patients with facial acne vulgaris of mild to moderate severity.
The efficacy of TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel in the treatment of acne previously treated with other retinoids or resistant to oral antibiotics has not been established.
Application may cause excessive irritation in the skin of certain sensitive individuals. In cases where it has been necessary to temporarily discontinue therapy, or the dosing has been reduced to a lower concentration (in patients with psoriasis) or to an interval the patient can tolerate, therapy can be resumed, or the drug concentration or frequency of application can be increased as the patient becomes able to tolerate the treatment. Frequency of application should be closely monitored by careful observation of the clinical therapeutic response and skin tolerance. Efficacy has not been established for less than once daily dosing frequencies.
For psoriasis: It is recommended that treatment start with TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) 0.05% Gel, with strength increased to 0.1% if tolerated and medically indicated. Apply TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel once a day, in the evening, to psoriatic lesions, using enough (2 mg/cm²) to cover only the lesion with a thin film to no more than 20% of body surface area. If a bath or shower is taken prior to application, the skin should be dry before applying the gel. If emollients are used, they should be applied at least an hour before application of TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel. Because unaffected skin may be more susceptible to irritation, application of tazarotene to these areas should be carefully avoided. TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel was investigated for up to 12 months during clinical trials for psoriasis.
For acne: Cleanse the face gently. After the skin is dry, apply a thin film of TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel 0.1% (2 mg/cm²) once a day, in the evening, to the skin where acne lesions appear. Use enough to cover the entire affected area. TAZORAC® (tazarotene gel) Gel was investigated for up to 12 weeks during clinical trials for acne.
TAZORAC® (tazarotene) Gel is available in concentrations of 0.05% and 0.1%. It is available in a collapsible aluminum tube with a tamper-evident aluminum membrane over the opening and a white propylene screw cap, in 30 g and 100 g sizes.

Cervus elaphus
Winter is a hard time for the red deer in the Oostvaarderplassen near Lelystad, Netherlands. Each year several animal will die of exhaustion and/or deseases. Not a happy sight to find on an early morning walk; but that's nature I guess.
I agree, I can't say I enjoy these kind of pictures, but is part of nature, and they are valuable
@Paul, Why? To arrest winter?
These are victims of exhaustion and desease, not of hunting or traps.
Yeah, really sad. On this specific morning I found about 15 dead deer, all without eyes and most of them with an open belly. Seems the scavengers know what they like best.

Auto Transport Services in Vermont USA
Safe And Reliable Vermont Car Shipping Services By A-1 Auto Transport
Yes, Vermont is perhaps best known for its maple syrup and mountains loaded with powdery snow, but there is more to this state than meets the eye. Ship your car to Vermont and take the time to peruse each of the tiny towns that line the state. What you will find are artisans with unmitigated talent, welcoming locales that enjoy telling tourists stories of local lore, restaurants offering delectable northern delights and more. This state is worth exploring and because it isn't massive like, say, Texas, you could plan an entire trip just criss-crossing from one county to the next to really enjoy all that Vermont has to offer.
Using Vermont Car Transport Companies
When you are looking to book Vermont car transport services, keep a few key tips in mind.
- Prep your car for winter conditions: During many of the months of the year, numerous places in Vermont maintain some of the most wintery conditions in the country. From the right fluids in your vehicle to snow tires, prep your car as much as possible ahead of your transport to ensure a successful and safe trip once your car has been delivered.
- Plan out a route ahead of time: If exploring the state is high on your agenda, plan out a route ahead of time so you know where you are going and you can make the most efficient use of your vehicle.
- Seek out the nearest Vermont auto transport depot: Vermont is a fairly small, so you may not have as many options in terms of where to pick up your vehicle once the transport company is ready to deliver it. Ask ahead of time where the nearest depot is in relation to your location in the state.
Vermont is one of the best places to truly "get away" when you need a vacation. Yes, some places in the state are touristy and crowded with other people doing the same thing, but there are many other towns that prides themselves on offering seclusion for those that want to find a winter cabin to which to except for some much-needed R&R.
Visit the Vermont Department of Transportation website for more information on Vermont and the plentiful opportunities in which it can offer those visiting or relocating to the state.

heh! :o but for this beginner it is the only way I can learn... a crash course in brain surgery if you will, elbows deep... the hail mary!
myself I have found the search function to be very helpful.
for some reason I... (and others) seem to want to begin on Backtrack, and there is a wealth of information in this forum for beginners.
I have no idea what sudo or apt-get means but I've managed to get BT installed, my nVidia drivers installed, my Alfa working fairly decent... Synaptic installed and 420 some odd Mb of packages downloaded/updated. Ive added xine and accompanying codecs, had three successes with gerix each in under 10mins and managed to get my desktop customized a little...
Yeah I would have to take back anything negative I may have expressed before. And I might have to disagree somewhat about learning on BT. Seems to be put together very intuitively, its not missing packages to run a package already installed and it is detailed enough to be expletive of itself.
works very well for me and I am sure some other users like me who have some or more than a little knowledge ut are just new to linux.
Try using a different brand or model of USB key. Some (i.e.: Verbatim Store'n'go) cause problems for gparted (partition manager) when they report drive geometry that doesn't make sense. This issue is reported all over the place. It's not BT specific, it hits many flavors of Ubuntu etc.

Ceiling Repair in Harper, TX
Catstrong Restoration employs several techniques to restore damaged drywall. The most ideal option is directly related to the intensity of the damage (small or substantial area) and place (wall or ceiling ).
Repair Option 1: Self-Adhesive Mesh Drywall Patch
Drywall patches are generally available at home improvement shops that consist of a thin metal mesh with a sticky backing. The metal mesh offers support for the drywall spackle. The patch is stuck across the hole, spackle, sand and paint. Self-adhesive metal patches perform best on wall surfaces and modest holes, but often sag when utilized on ceilings. Catstrong restoration therefore picked not to use a metal repair patch.
Repair Option 2: Cut Out and Replace with New Drywall
The very best way to repair the roughly 6 ″ by 6 ″ area of damaged drywall ceiling is to cut out the area and replace it with a new area of drywall by installing a wood reinforcement structure, tape the joints, apply joint compound, sand and paint. The most difficult part was working on the extension ladder to reach the high ceiling.
Repair Option 3: Install a Drywall Access Panel
The problem with Options 1 and 2 are if the water leak were to transpire again, you'll be redoing the ceiling repairs. Depending on the nature of the leak, it may be important to cut an hole in the ceiling to fix the plumbing. CatStrong Restoration has used bauco drywall access panels.

Modelli non lineari per i tassi di cambio: un confronto previsivo
In recent years there has been a considerable development in time seriesanalysis, represented mainly by alternative linear models able to describe more adequately the short and long term dynamics and by the renewed interest in modelling nonlinearities and asymmetries in economic and financial variables. Given the relevance of such variables in devising economic and monetary policy, it is of theoretical, as well as practical, importance to propose statistical methods appropriate to represent their dynamic behaviour. The aim of this work is to compare the forecasting performance of different models for the returns of some of the most traded exchange rates, namely the French Franc (FF/$), the German Mark (DM/$) and the Japanese Yen (Y/$). We compare the relative performance of some nonlinear models and contrast them with their simpler linear counterparts. Although we find evidence of noticeable forecasting gains from nonlinear models, the results are sensitive to the metric adopted to measure the forecasting accuracy.e.

summary | This paper tackles the issues of overlay publications (journals, but also edited monographs and books in general). Its two parts are aimed at providing theoretical understanding of what an overlay publication is and at examining a concrete example of a print on demand overlay book, published after the free digital version was released. The first part takes into account the definitions found in literature and goes back to the functions that every system of scholarly publication must satisfy, as Roosendaal and Geurts (1997) proposed, adopting a value chain perspective of the scholarly communication system. Some examples of overlay journals are then examined in order to clarify which added value an overlay publication can contribute. According to the first part, the second part of the paper analyzes in depth a first experiment of what can be defined as an overlay book. The case study is about a short monograph in Italian, in the field of online and social marketing published first as a free ebook and then published in print through a print on demand model. The paper ends summarizing the findings of the case study and providing some insights about overlay publications, trying to clarify what they are and why they are useful. |

Security and OJ Simpson
I've got to admit that I am beyond shocked that video footage of OJ Simpson in the Palace Station in Vegas hasn't appeared yet. We all know how much has been invested in security at casinos and hotels in the city of sin, yet all we're being given is a bad audio tape made by one of Simpson's victims and some footage from Simpson's bail hearing. I'm deeply disappointed in the security director at the Palace - shouldn't he or she have sold that footage to Fox News for a million bucks by now?
Maybe the Palace hasn't upgraded to IP yet and they're still looking for the video on their VCRs....

Is Seth MacFarlane the coolest, most unassuming guy in Hollywood? Pretty much. He's the mastermind behind Family Guy and Ted (the highest-grossing R-rated film EV-er) and is nominated for an Oscar for best song, making him the first Oscar host to be in Oscar contention. Known for his inappropriate, envelope-pushing humor, Seth is certain to serve up a little edge at the Oscars. And this is Hollywood, so talk about a room of material at Seth's disposal! Will Oscar's attempt to bring in a younger and hipper crowd pay off? Oscar is counting on us to tune in and find out.
Oscar, you sly dog you! This year, four Oscar-winning actresses are confirmed to present — Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock and Reese Witherspoon. With all these beauties, who will be the beast? John Travolta, while not beastly per se, has been shrouded in tales of impropriety for several months. Seems Oscar may be testing the tried-and-true formula for tabloid TV — sex and scandal.
Look who's getting all techie at 85! For the first time, the Academy Awards will be held at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood to bring the audience and viewers the best audio experience possible. On top of that, not only can members of the Academy vote electronically this year, but there is also an app for Oscar die-hards! An electronic "back-stage pass," the official Oscars app (My Picks) gives you all the inside scoops on nominees, and it allows you to cast a vote for your personal faves. You can even stalk your favorite stars from the red carpet, to the stage, to behind the scenes on Hollywood's biggest night!
Oscar isn't done making history. In another Oscar first, the "Oscar Roadtrip" kicked off in New York City Feb. 4 and will be visiting cities in a cross-country tour to reach Hollywood by the night of the Oscars, Feb. 24.
"We created the Oscar Roadtrip to bring the magic and fun of the Oscar ceremony to movie fans across the country," said Josh Spector, managing director of digital media and marketing for the Academy. "The Oscar Roadtrip makes it possible to share the once-in-a-lifetime thrill that only comes from holding an Oscar statuette."
We can see the Facebook frenzy now! Well played, Oscar, well played.

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
What a difference a year makes.
In 2012, Fifi Kara enrolled at LSE to study anthropology, intending to put her head down for several years, emerge with a first class degree and hopefully a job at the end of it.
Three months in, the plan took a U-turn. Realising she had taken the wrong study path, Fifi withdrew from the course and spent the next eight months working in the not-for-profit social policy area. This included short-term roles with the National Citizen Service, the UK's leading integration charity; international management consulting firm Oliver Wyman; youth and education charity City Year; and Living Wage.
During this time Fifi also founded Model Westminster, a social enterprise aimed at educating students about the policy-making process to encourage participation in political life.
These experiences all led her back to LSE – wiser, more informed and with a clearer perspective on her life direction.
Second time around, Fifi enrolled in the Social Policy with Government degree, using the knowledge gained in her eight-month hiatus from LSE to put her studies into sharp focus.
"I realised that the time spent away from LSE was not a waste at all; it just added another layer to my learning experience," Fifi said. "What LSE has taught me is that there are so many opportunities out there I can take advantage of to supplement my formal degree so that I come away with a far richer and rounded experience."
One of these is a five-week Fulbright Summer Scholarship at the Kelley School of Business on Social Entrepreneurship, which Fifi will undertake in the US in July.
The course is based in Indiana but includes a 10 day stint in Washington DC, meeting with State Department officials and touring the sites.
Another opportunity Fifi has recently taken up is a Royal Society of Arts Fellowship, joining a global network of 27,000 members to help tackle social challenges with innovative, practical solutions.
Traditionally viewed as a society of 'elderly, wealthy gentlemen,' the RSA is hoping Fifi's involvement will break this stereotype and encourage other students and young people to join.
"I want to tackle social issues in a new way and I think the RSA – with all its resources, expertise and networking contacts – will help facilitate that," Fifi said.
For more information about Fifi's work and background, go to: http://www.fifikara.com/
