In 1965 producer Godfrey Phillip and writer John-Michael Howson created a children's television programme known as The Magic Circle Club. The show which screened on ATV-0 during 1965-1966 was set in The Magic Forest and featured many fairytale and pantomime-inspired characters. Although popular with audiences the programme was cancelled after three seasons with ATV-0 citing high production costs as the reason for its decision.
Following The Magic Circle Club's demise, Phillip and Howson were approached to create a similar programme for the ABC. The result was the highly successful Adventure Island (1967-1972) set in the fantasy world of Diddley-Dum-Diddley. Across Australia children waited eagerly each day for host Sue Donovan to open the magic storybook and set the scene for the adventures of Liza (Liz Harris), Percy Panda (Jack Manuel), Clown (John-Michael Howson), Flower Potts (Brian Crossley) and their adversaries, Fester Fumble (Ernie Bourne) and Miser Meanie (Colin McEwan).
The show went on to develop a large and loyal fan-base, however, high production costs continued to plague the programme and in 1972 it was controversially axed to make way for the American children's programme, Sesame Street.

Have you ever run a Google search for "The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie"? It's incredible the amount of entries that are returned and everyone is insisting they have found the very best. How would you describe the ultimate chocolate chip cookie, "Soft and chewy?" "Crispy and chewy?" "Slightly soft but not crumbly?" "Thin and crispy?" or could it possibly be any one of the many other descriptions that flood the search engine?
Where to begin and which recipe to choose was not an easy feat but I ultimately landed on Jacques Torres's Secret Chocolate Chip Cookies and wow! I am so happy I did! How could I go wrong? Apparently these are Martha Stewart's favourite chocolate chip cookies. If they can satisfy Martha they must be amazing.
The "Secret" to Jacques's chocolate chip cookies, good quality butter, the combination of the pastry and bread flours and the best-quality chocolate with at least 60% cocoa content.
I picked up a few tips along the way (from an article I read in the New York Times by David Leite) to enhance the flavour and texture of the cookies. Make sure all of the ingredients you are using are at room temperature. Salt is a key ingredient in any sweet baked good. Let the cookie dough rest for thirty-six hours. (Are you kidding? I couldn't wait that long! Four hours was all I could manage, maybe next time). This will enhance the flavour and make the cookies taste better.
The resting period in the fridge also produces drier and firmer dough that bakes to a better consistency (I found after refrigerating for four hours I had to let the dough sit at room temperature for about twenty minutes before I could scoop and proportion). The most important tip (think we all know this one) bake in small quantities, serve fresh and warm. Who doesn't love any chocolate chip cookie straight out of the oven? Soft and gooey chocolate gets me every time.
Couple of things to mention, your stand mixer will definitely get a work out (thought mine was going to end up in the trash) and when you are adding the chocolate you'll think to yourself "there is no way I can mix in all this chocolate" but you can, just add gradually. I went with a 2-ounce size cookie, when baked it was approximately 9 cm (3½-inches) in diameter. The recipe makes quite a few cookies. You can portion out and freeze and bake whenever you want to indulge (add a few minutes to baking time).
Did I find the best chocolate chip cookie? I don't know. What I did find, a decadent and rich chocolate chip cookie (crispy around the edges and soft in the middle) that will surely satisfy any sweet tooth.
Jacques Torres's Secret Chocolate Chip Cookies
(from Martha Stewart)
Makes 26 13 cm (5-inch) cookies or 8½ dozen 3 cm (1¼-inch) cookies
- 375 g (3 cups plus 2 tablespoons) pastry flour
- 375 g (3 cups) bread flour
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda

- Preheat oven to 180° C (350° F). Line the baking sheets with parchment paper or non-stick baking mats; set aside.
- Using a fine-mesh sieve, sift both flours, salt, baking powder, and baking soda into a large bowl. Using a large whisk, whisk to combine; set aside.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and both sugars together on medium-high speed until very light, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Reduce speed to medium, add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in the vanilla.
- Reduce speed to low, gradually add the flour mixture and mix until just combined.

You're so right. These really do appear quite perfect. I've tried that technique of letting this sort of cookie dough "age" for two or three days in the fridge before baking it, and I think it really works. No question that using fine chocolate helps too, and the difference that comes from using something other than just all-purpose flour in chocolate chip cookie dough can be pretty startling too! Nice post and beautiful photos!

Thank you Jane, I am going to try and hold off for the 36 hour time frame next time but I think I will bake some off at the 12hr and 24hr as well just to see the difference between the aging times. I also want to try a batch that I portion out and freeze to see if the aging process works the same (it makes such a large batch) plus it's nice to be able to pop a dozen in the oven and eat them freshly baked.

I found this recipe about a year ago and haven't made another chocolate chip cookie since. These are the best!! I add walnuts sometimes … this cookies bakes up crisp on the edges which I love and the dough isn't too too sweet and compliments the chocolate well.

I know what SHOULD come up when I do a google search for best chocolate chip cookies. It should be this post! Your pics keep getting better and better and (as my dad used to say) they were pretty good to start with! I love the one with the cookie dough…that is a particular weakness of mine.

Hi Grace,
Last summer my family and I took a little field trip to Brooklyn. We rode the subway to lower Manhattan and then walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. One of our many stops while we were there was to Jacques Torres' store and guess what we had – his chocolate chip cookies! They were bigger than normal and warm out of the oven. Very rich – the 4 of us shared one cookie!
Grace Says:
August 26th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
Stacey what I wouldn't give to try one of his, especially right out of the oven.

Hi Grace, I love this recipe. When I bake them, they are crispier on the outside and slightly chewy in the center, baked this twice.
Is that how it is supposed to be? I drop the cookie in 40g measurements but don't spread them – let it spread in the oven.
Grace Says:
September 1st, 2012 at 8:00 am
Yes exactly Nazir. If you want them thin and crispy you'll have to experiment with this batter. I would try baking a small batch (3 or 4 cookies) immediately after preparing the batter without resting in the fridge, if it's the texture you want bake the rest off. If not, rest at one hour increments testing a few cookies at a time until they are perfect. The first time I made the cookies I rested the batter for four hours but I found it was very hard to scoop after taking the batter out of the fridge. Now I portion the cookies first and then bake off straight from the fridge and I would recommend you do the same. The only drawback is having enough room in the fridge for all the trays. I usually use one full sheet pan placing the cookies as close as possible and then transfer and space on another sheet when its time to bake them. They are firm at that point and easy to lift off the parchment paper. Let me know how it goes because I haven't prepared these thin and crispy yet.

Never mind, just read your last paragraph :-) How do I make it a crispy cookie? Change any ingredient or just spread it thinner, or both?
M N K Says:
September 1st, 2012 at 12:27 pm
Thank you! FYI, I did make them ahead of time, rolled them into logs and wrapped them with cling wrap and then under refrigeration. After 4 hours, I just sliced them, placed them on tray and baked. Saved me from scooping!
I will experiment for a crispier cookie (when I return, in 2 weeks) and let you know!
Grace Says:
September 1st, 2012 at 1:31 pm
Thanks Nazir and thanks for the tip, I never thought to roll in logs, genius!

Nafisa Haji is the author of The Sweetness of Tears and The Writing on My Forehead. She lives in California.
What are you reading these days?
For pleasure, The Dovekeepers by Alice Hoffman, a riveting retelling of the ancient story of Masada and a poignant lesson on the power of storytelling from a tradition that has spent thousands of years successfully passing stories down from one generation to another. For research and work on the two books I am currently writing I am reading One Woman's Jihad: Nana Asma'u, Scholar and Scribe by Beverly B. Mack and Jean Boyd, Incognito by David Eagleman, and The Tell-Tale Brain by V. S. Ramachandran. And, with my son at bedtime, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
Which books are on your bedside table?
Istanbul by Orhan Pamuk, Inhuman Bondage: The Rise and Fall of Slavery in the New World by David Brion Davis and The Arabian Nights are on the top of the tower.
Which titles are on your bucket list of books?
Ah! So many books and so little time. I would like to think of myself as living too much in the moment to have a bucket list. That said, War and Peace comes to mind.
What is the one book/author you feel everyone must read? Why?
I tend to recommend all of Dorothy Dunnett's novels often… swashbuckling, adventurous romps through the 15th and 16th centuries written with a humanistic (and slightly orientalist) sensibility by a brilliant and sadistic author — the kind who takes you on emotional roller coasters (one of which caused me to once throw a volume against a wall in protest) and who is merciless in the kind of intellectual demands made on the reader, throwing in lines of medieval poetry in many languages with no translations provided. If your ego can take the bruising, I have yet to find a reading experience as wholly immersing as the one the great Dorothy Dunnett manages to create.
On another note entirely, I love the poetry of Hafiz. In particular, inaccuracies notwithstanding, I enjoy the translations of Daniel Ladinsky whose humourous and irreverent tone I suspect would have been approved of by the master himself.
What are you planning to reread?
Well, Dorothy Dunnett's novels, of course. Along with all of Austen's titles... her books I return to again and again, especially when I am writing. I find myself re-reading novels less as I get older... a result of knowing that the sands of time are pouring out, I suppose… but poetry is something I go back to more and more. Hafiz, Rumi, Blake, Dickinson.
What is the one book you read because you thought it would make you appear smarter?
As I get older, appearances seem to matter less and less. So, it is without shame that I admit that there are whole chapters in Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time and Brian Greene's The Elegant Universe that, no matter how much I would like to claim to have understood, I did not. This does not cause me the anxiety it once would have. The inverse, however, the fear of looking "dumb" is not something I have yet fully outgrown. So, there are many, many books I have read which I won't admit to having spent any time with my nose inside. An example of such a guilty pleasure? Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series... oh the shame, and oh, how they have made me laugh!
What is the one book you started reading but could not finish?
Proust. To help motivate me on this front, I have made references to Proust in one of the novels I am currently working on in the hopes of shaming myself into finally reading him. I'll keep you posted on how this works out.
What is your favourite childhood book or story?
There are too many to list but I have the advantage of having re-read many of them in recent years, as bedtime read-alouds with my son. One he and I have read together more than once, and which I don't think I could ever tire of, no matter how many years old I get, is Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne, a lifetime of wisdom rolled into all of those cuddly characters, whose personality types I see in people around me every day, including myself.

Even if the arch feminist Germaine Greer did once dismiss Cherie Blair as a mere "concubine", women's rights have always been close to the heart of the former prime minister's wife.
Now, however, Mrs Blair, who runs a foundation for women, says it is a "myth" that members of her sex can ever have it all. "I've never met a working mother who didn't constantly feel that she wasn't doing either job very well," says the woman who juggled being the wife of the country's leader with a legal career and raising four children.
Other women in the political arena who have made surprising admissions to the latest Easy Living magazine include Louise Mensch, the Conservative MP, who features in a photo shoot in January's GQ in a fetching leather-fronted Dolce & Gabanna skirt and L'Agence silk blouse.
"Being groomed and being smart is what impresses people – not trading on your looks," she says. "If you do, women will resent you and men will trivialise you."
Yvette Cooper, the shadow home secretary, takes a pragmatic view. "Get great childcare," she counsels working women. "I couldn't have done my job for the past ten years without my mum. Helping with the kids when we're under real pressure, she really is the fourth emergency service."
There is, meanwhile, an air of resignation in Hillary Clinton's comments to the magazine. "You can't be on the merry-go-round forever," she says. "I'm retiring in 2012 – I want more time for myself and my friends."

HURLEY, N.Y. -- The 38-year-old man whose sudden death led to the arrest of the Kingston High School social studies teacher on drug charges died from a heart condition known as myocarditis, the man's wife and an Ulster County prosecutor said on Wednesday.
Julie Conlin provided the information to the Freeman the day after Ulster County's Chief Assistant District Attorney said Mark Conlin did not die from the psilocybin mushrooms he allegedly received from KHS teacher Matthew DiDonna.
The prosecutor, John Tobin, said on Tuesday that a preliminary autopsy report stated Conlin died not from ingesting the mushrooms, but "of unrelated causes." He initially declined to say what those causes were. On Wednesday however, after Mrs. Conlin contacted the Freeman, he confirmed the cause was myocarditis.
Mrs. Conlin, in an email to the Freeman on Wednesday, wrote: "The surprising news I just received is that Mark was suffering from myocarditis, an unsuspected infection in his heart muscle, resulting in so much inflammation and scar tissue that his heart simply couldn't pump anymore."
Myocarditis, as defined by the Mayo Clinic, is an inflammation of the myocardium, the middle layer of the heart wall, caused usually by a viral infection. Signs and symptoms include chest pain, heart failure and abnormal heart rhythms that can lead to a stroke or heart attack.
Mrs. Conlin, in her email, wrote that if her husband "had recognized the symptoms of inflammatory cardiomyopathy early enough, maybe he could have been treated and would still be alive."
Mrs. Conlin wrote that she "lost a loving husband, my three children lost an amazing father, his parents lost a remarkable son..."
She called her husband's death "sudden" and "tragic" and said he "had seemed at the peak of health -- an active father of three young children."
Authorities have said it was Conlin's death on the night of Dec. 8, 2012, that led to DiDonna, 42, being arrested early Dec. 9 on felony counts of drug possession and sale. Psilocybin mushrooms were found in both Conlin's and DiDonna's homes the night of Dec. 8-9, authorities have said, and Tobin said on Tuesday that DiDonna either sold or gave the drugs to Conlin.
Tobin said police had the mushrooms from Conlin's home examined by experts and that they determined the drugs were hallucinogenic but not poisonous. Tobin also said no mushrooms were found in Conlin's stomach during the autopsy, but probably because they already had passed through his system. The prosecutor said authorities know Conlin ingested mushrooms.
Mrs. Conlin on Wednesday denied mushrooms were in her home the night her husband died.
Emergency responders went to the Conlin house on DeWitt Mills Road in Hurley after a 911 caller at 11:19 p.m. Dec. 8 reported an unresponsive male. DiDonna was arrested by state police at 3:35 a.m. Dec. 9 at his home on Wayside Drive in Hurley and was charged with possession and sale of a controlled substance, both felonies, and unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation. State police at the time said DiDonna's arrest followed an investigation that determined he sold drugs at his home Saturday evening.
DiDonna, a KHS social studies teacher who also was the adviser for the school's Class of 2012, was placed on paid leave by the Kingston school district pending the outcome of the case against him.

This chapter describes how to remove the ISA or ISM from supported platforms and also how to install a new or replacement ISA or ISM. This chapter contains the following sections:
•ISA or ISM Removal and Installation
The ISA and the ISM circuit boards are mounted to metal carriers and are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
Note When a port adapter slot or service module slot is not in use, a blank port adapter or service module must fill the empty slot to allow the router to conform to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions requirements and to allow proper airflow. If you plan to install a new ISA or ISM in a slot that is not in use, you must first remove the blank port adapter or blank service module.
Figure 3-1 Handling the ISM
Figure 3-2
Handling the ISA
Several platforms support online insertion and removal (OIR); therefore, you do not have to power down the router when removing and replacing an ISA on Cisco 7200 series routers.
Warning Cisco 7100 series routers do not support OIR for the service module slot (slot 5); therefore, you must power down the router when removing or replacing an ISM in Cisco 7100 series routers.
It is wise to gracefully shut down the system before removing a port adapter that has active traffic moving through it. Removing a module while traffic is flowing through the ports can cause system disruption. Once the module is inserted, the ports can be brought back up.
Note As you disengage the module from the router or switch, online insertion and removal (OIR) administratively shuts down all active interfaces in the module.
OIR allows you to install and replace modules while the router is operating; you do not need to notify the software or shut down the system power, although you should not run traffic through the module you are removing while it is being removed. OIR is a method that is seamless to end users on the network, maintains all routing information, and preserves sessions.
The following is a functional description of OIR for background information only; for specific procedures for installing and replacing a module in a supported platform, refer to the "ISA or ISM Removal and Installation" section.
Each module has a bus connector that connects it to the router. The connector has a set of tiered pins in three lengths that send specific signals to the system as they make contact with the module. The system assesses the signals it receives and the order in which it receives them to determine if a module is being removed from or introduced to the system. From these signals, the system determines whether to reinitialize a new interface or to shut down a disconnected interface.
Specifically, when you insert a module, the longest pins make contact with the module first, and the shortest pins make contact last. The system recognizes the signals and the sequence in which it receives them.
When you remove or insert a module, the pins send signals to notify the system of changes. The router then performs the following procedure:
1. Rapidly scans the system for configuration changes.
2. Initializes newly inserted port adapters or administratively shuts down any vacant interfaces.
3. Brings all previously configured interfaces on the module back to their previously installed state. Any newly inserted interface is put in the administratively shutdown state, as if it was present (but not configured) at boot time. If a similar module type is reinserted into a slot, its ports are configured and brought online up to the port count of the originally installed module of that type.
Note Before you begin installation, read "Preparing for Installation," for a list of parts and tools required for installation.
Observe the following warnings and cautions when installing or removing service adapters and service modules.
Note If a port adapter lever or other retaining mechanism does not move to the locked position, the service adapter is not completely seated in the midplane. Carefully pull the service adapter out of the slot, reinsert it, and move the port adapter lever or other mechanism to the locked position.
Warning When performing the following procedures, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to the card. Some platforms have an ESD connector for attaching the wrist strap. Do not directly touch the midplane or backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.
Warning Cisco 7100 series routers do not support OIR of the ISM. Failure to power down the router when removing or replacing the ISM could cause serious equipment damage or electrical shock.
In this section, the illustrations that follow give step-by-step instructions on how to remove and install the ISA or the ISM. This section contains the following illustrations:
•Cisco 7100 Series—Removing and Installing the ISM
•Cisco 7200 Series—Removing and Installing the ISA
Note The Cisco 7100 series VPN routers do not support an ISM and an ISA in the same chassis.

We caught up with DJ Flashback a.k.a The Flash Cats about his new LP 'Groovin' and other bits. The LP is out now. Buy it here
Thanks for sharing some time with the blog! So, you've just released a full LP 'Groovin'. Tell us abit about the creative process, time and labour that went into this LP
The new album 'Groovin' took about a year to complete, and was a project that my studio partner Sparky and I had been talking about doing for a few years. We have both always been heavily influenced by the house and rave sounds that came out of the North of the UK in the late '80s, early '90s so it seemed like a good idea to produce an album showcasing this sound. After selecting lots of our favourite tracks from that era, we got together what vocal samples we could and Sparky got everything down in the studio including re-writing all the drums and music. After much listening, tweaking, replacing tracks etc we settled on the 15 tracks that are on the album.
Previously, you produced other different aliases like The Flashback Project, you played a huge role in the NuRave/Rave Breaks/Future Jungle scene of the mid 00's up to now. How did you get into this sound and start making tracks?
I mainly release as 'The Flashback Project, also I've used 'Scientists' (for DNB), 'Dub Heroes' with Sparky (for Fidget House) and more recently 'Flash Cats'. I got into the sound initially through DJ'ing hardcore since around 1990, but didn't get into a studio with any serious intentions until I hooked up with the extremely talented production duo Stu and Nee, resulting in my first vinyl release 'Hands In The Air, on Mertwax (big up Mert!). I also been lucky enough to work with other amazing producers like King Yoof (Sunz Of Mecha), Hattrixx, D'Silva and Sparky who have all helped me to develop my sound, and I released on Junki Munki Records, Firewall Records, Uplifting Rhythm, Tornado Records, Uppacutz Records, Can You Feel It Media and Downbeat Productions. DJs Slipmatt and Billy Daniel Bunter helped me a great deal in the early years signing my first 2 tracks Love Commandments and Ease The Pressure, the latter being then licensed to their with platinum selling 'Rave Nation' album, released on Ministry Of Sound Recordings. Also, I was very lucky to have the support and encouragement of the legendary DJ Kutski (BBC Radio 1), as well as a whole host of other DJs and radio stations who helped me immeasurably with support and airplay. I set up my own label Propaganda Music in 2013 and along with releasing my own music I try to discover and push emerging talent as much as I can. To date we've had 12 releases on the label, the latest being the brand new FLASH CATS album – GROOVIN
In general, the breaks sound is very popular over in Spain, what do you think is the appeal of that particular sound over there?
There is definitely a growing demand for breaks, and the Spanish have been at the forefront for at least 15 years. The appeal is undoubtedly the razor sharp production combined with huge basslines and catchy riffs optimised over the years by the likes of DJ Quest, The Freestylers, The Breakfastaz, Plump DJs, Ed 209, Deekline, Wizard…to name just a few!
The sound that you and others make has its roots in the 90s rave sound. Do you think the new wave of rave-inspired music has suffered a bit from excessive labelling?
No, I don't think so. There will always be labelling in music – genres, sub genres etc. The crucial thing is the music gets out to the market – how people want to categorise it is up to them
What are the perfect ingredients for a tune in your opinion? What elements of a track get the hairs standing on end?
Crisp beats, heavy basslines, catchy riffs. Easy you'd think…
Where have been your favourite places to DJ over the years?
I've been very lucky over the years and have played at some amazing parties all over the UK and Europe, but the one place that was the most special was playing at The Sanctuary in Milton Keynes in the UK – now sadly gone The Sanctuary held so many special memories for me over the last 25 years so having the opportunity to play there before it was closed was very special and something that I won't forget!
If you could assemble a line up of 5 DJs for an event, any DJ of your choice, who would you pick?
Ha ha, great question….Well for me it would be a mixture of Drum N Bass, Electro House and Old Skool – what a night that would be…
DJ Randall
Camo & Krooked
Far Too Loud
DJ Tango B2B DJ Ratty
What's coming up in 2017 for Flash Cats and your label, Propaganda Music?
Lots of things are happening at the moment! As I mentioned earlier we've just released PROPS012: FLASH CATS – GROOVIN. I've also been busy in the studio and have a brand new bass and breaks mix to put out including lots of new Propaganda Music exclusives! Also, I'm in the process of having most of my back catalogue re-mastered and I plan to release a 100+ track album of all my work over the years. All proceeds from sales of that album will be donated to charity as a mark of gratitude and respect to family and dear friends that I have tragically lost over recent years, so please watch this space for news on that.
Shouts to Jackski, Mark, Allan and everyone worldwide supporting the sounds! x

Yes, it is That Blue
Spirit Falls - Columbia River Gorge, OR
Ahhh this is such an incredible waterfall. I'm not 100% of the name but I hear people call it "Spirit Falls" a lot. In a world of very processed landscape photos, sometimes water will end up looking extremely blue for a surreal effect, but I promise the water actually did look like that. I think the color of the water, the trees, and the lichen on the rocks all together make a very pleasing image! People also kayak off these falls, which is absolutely crazy. The water is moving very fast and there are a lot of big rapids, the biggest ones out of frame.

Nine Springs Creek - Madison, WI
Did you guys see the sunset last night in Madison? Hot damn. I'll tell you right now - I'm an extremely lazy person sometimes, but one of the few things that can get me off my butt is great photo conditions. For my non-Wisconsin friends, we had just had a couple warm weekends that melted all the snow, and then a few inches of snowfall yesterday. Normally it's pretty cloudy and overcast, but last night I noticed an opening in the clouds around the horizon. That means that once the sun is in that opening (at sunset), it'll light up the rest of the cloudy sky. So - fresh snow and a good chance at a colorful sunset, fine, I'll get off my butt. Worth it.
Fun fact: My understanding is sunsets are pink and red due to the low angle of the sun to the earth, light has to travel further through the atmosphere to get to our eyes. In the visible spectrum of light waves, pink and red have the longest frequencies and are the least scattered by the atmosphere so they get through whereas the other colors don't.

Here's the first photo I've published from my trip to Oregon. There was rarely a cloud in the sky that week, so I stayed up a little later each night to capture twilight with some stars. Samuel H Boardman is a 12 mile strip of gorgeous coast about as southwest as you can get in Oregon. Like many places in Oregon, it's a place I've been pining to go to for years. Glad I got to see it! I was sitting in this spot for sunset, twilight, and in the morning. It was very tranquil sitting and watching the big waves lap against the rugged coast for a few hours. This 13 second exposure makes the water look very smooth and brings out a lot of the ambient light of twilight on the sea stacks. This one is named after the Black Sabbath song, of course.

Abiqua Falls (OR)
I'd been wanting to go to this waterfall for a very long time, so I was really happy to see it last May when I was in Oregon. It's a massive waterfall and the amiptheatre it's in is gorgeous (check out those awesome boxy rocks on the side). It's just so photogenic and there are a ton of different compositions of it that all look great.
I decided to go with a very simple composition for now, because I am all about keeping things simple. It sounds like Einstein was a fan too, based on the quote I used for the title. I strive to examine all aspects of my life and look for ways I can make things simpler and more efficient - from the number of things I own, to the way I use money, to the way I keep my house, to the way I use computers, and live life in general. It totally pays off!
Try it out yourself - find the subject and purpose of your life (or the photo you're taking) and remove the things around it that are only a distraction and don't add value. Those things might seem necessary at first, but after removing them you might find your subject has more room to breathe! Hah, I made a metaphor.

Sweetwater Strand - Big Cypress National Preserve (FL)
Last week I had a great, though intense week traveling for work - the kind where I got a lot done, and I felt accomplished. However, we all know that you can't run at 110% all the time without burning out. For me it's important to take a little time each day to "do" some "non-doing" - not working, not accomplishing something, and not even sitting and thinking, going on a walk, or reading a comforting book. Just observing my thoughts without getting carried away by them. It creates space for creativity and empathy, and feels restorative.
On the weekend I found the perfect spot for that in Newport State Park in Door County, Wisconsin. This park only has backpacking sites, so Alyssa and I carried all our stuff on our backs and hiked to our campsite and had a little fire. The next morning I woke up at 4:30am (the day is so long around the summer solstice, ugh) and walked out to the shore amidst many of my mosquito and spider and bird friends to watch the sun rise. No human friends were to be seen, though. I took a photo and walked every so often, but I also spent a considerable amount of time just sitting and observing both the sun rise and my mind. Even though I wasn't doing anything, time seemed to continue, the sun still rose, and the waves continued to gently lap at the shoreline. In a fast-paced world full of glowing screens and push notifications, sometimes it's necessary to get back to the basics. I felt very calm and restored - ready to take on the next week. I then walked back and took a two hour nap and spent the rest of the weekend with my wife :)

I am overwhelmed and thrilled about how the gallery opening event went last night! I can't thank enough everyone that showed up and supported me. THANK YOU!! I'm not even sure what to do with my time now that I am finished with that... I guess I'll keep doing this :) If you weren't able to attend, the gallery will be open all of September if you'd like to see it. If my schedule works out I'd be happy to meet up there too.
Anywho, this is another new photo from my trip to Oregon in July, and the last one at my gallery I haven't posted yet. Just to the right of this was the very beautiful and shapely Mt Hood. Mountains and lakes are pretty awesome, but when I saw the fog and the reflection and canoer peacefully floating around before sunrise, the mountain had to wait. Seeing how calm the water and this guy was just gave me a sense of... "things are good how they are... I am ok as I am." A lot of anguish seems to stem from wanting things to be different. Some things simply cannot be changed, so all that can be changed is your perception about them.
Again, thank you so much for the support last night and for all the encouragement over the years for my little hobby!

The Color and the Shape
Quarry Rock Falls - Cleveland, OH
Now that I'm done with some other photographic and musical obligations for the year, I can start pumping out more landscape photos, yay! This is the last thing I took photos of in Ohio this fall. It was a little bit out of the way, but I sure am glad I came here. The fall colors were peaking, and playing around on this waterfall was really fun! I forgot my waders on this trip. so I just walked around in the water in my shoes and socks. There were a ton of waterfalls to climb next to and up and all over.
This is a panorama of 5 vertical images (and yes the curve of the river was shaped that way, it wasn't just from the stitching). Title borrowed from the Foo Fighters album.

This letterbook covers the period March-May 1915. Most of the correspondence is by Edison and William H. Meadowcroft. The letters mainly relate to World War I, the disruption of markets for the carbolic acid (phenol) used in the manufacture of phonograph records, and Edison's production of chemicals for his businesses, including the establishment of benzol absorbing plants in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, and Woodward, Alabama. Other letters pertain to tariff regulations; phonographs and recordings; Edison's winter home in Fort Myers, Florida; visitors to the laboratory; and books received by Edison. There is also a letter of recommendation of behalf of D. F. Van Marle, a chemist who worked at Edison's laboratory, along with a letter proclaiming Edison's support for women's suffrage. The correspondents include longtime Edison associate William H. Mason, R. B. Owens of the Franklin Institute, Edward R. Stettinius of J. P. Morgan & Co., and representatives of Mitsui & Co.
The spine is stamped "Letters" and is marked "T.A.E. from March 31- 1915 to May 3- 1915." The number "41" also appears on the spine. The book contains 700 numbered pages and an index. Approximately 15 percent of the book has been selected. Courtesy of Thomas Edison National Historical Park.

Pirelli's supersoft tyre will appear for the first time in 2012 during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend
- Home
- MotoGP
- Championships
- Forums
- CrashTV
- Live
Pirelli's supersoft tyre will make its first appearance of the season this weekend in the Monaco Grand Prix, with the tyre supplier having also elected to take its soft tyre to the streets of the principality.
With the street circuit relying almost exclusively on mechanical grip, it is ideal territory for the supersoft, which benefits from a rapid warm-up time and is capable of generating very high levels of traction and cornering forces.
The supersoft tyre being used is the same compound as the one used last season, albeit with a new profile to fit into the 2012 rules.
"Monaco is a highlight of the season and a place where our supersoft and soft tyres have provided plenty of entertainment in the past," Pirelli motorsport director Paul Hembery said. "Last year, we had three drivers on three different strategies set for a grandstand finish - before a red flag got in the way. The supersoft is the only compound that remains unaltered from last year, as it proved to be so effective on circuits like Monaco, but of course the profile has been re-designed to better suit the 2012 regulations.
"With the wear rate being so low in Monaco, the drivers will be able to push at their hardest from start to finish. Tyre strategy will be very important in Monaco, where on-track overtaking is more difficult than anywhere else. Having said that, the Principality has a history of often springing a surprise. With the cars so evenly matched now, even the slightest advantage or smallest mistake can have a big impact on the final outcome of a race, as we've seen so far this season."

Kereru comeback
As the summer season approaches and the Christmas parties and after-work drinks come into effect, it's time for all of us to be careful with our consumption and ensure that we don't drink and drive. It's also a time when slightly inebriated kereru can be caught out after feasting on fermented fruit and swooping down in front of cars, into houses or people's back yards.
The New Zealand wood pigeon or kereru (also known as kukupa in the far north) are one of the largest pigeon species and are well-known New Zealand forest dwellers (their Chatham Island cousins, the parea, are about 20 per cent bigger than a kereru!). They are also seen in farmland as well as towns and cities where there is plenty of food for them. They are barely holding their own though, as habitat destruction and predation and being outcompeted for food by possums and rats take their toll on these impressive big-breasted birds.
I love kereru. I get a kick out of that distinctive woosh-woosh-woosh sound as they fly over at low heights, and I love their aerobatic routines of swooping and diving that would put some of the Warbirds over Wanaka pilots to shame! Last weekend, the bloke and I headed to my deep southern roots of the Catlins to my grandparents' combined 80th party, and during our travels around Niagara and Waikawa we saw big flocks of kereru, which are clearly benefiting from the sustained pest control in that area.
The flip-top head of the kereru enables it to swallow quite a mouthful! (Photo: K Raw)
And forests benefit from kereru numbers too. It has long been known that kereru are the only bird that has a gape wide enough to swallow our larger forest berries and fruits such as miro, taraire and karaka whole. To gain an understanding of what it must be like for the kereru to open their beaks wide enough to swallow these fruits, imagine yourself swallowing a grapefruit whole. It's a bit like having a flip-top head!
When the kereru gulp down these berries the fruit is passed through their digestive system, where the fleshy fruit part is stripped off, and the seed is passed out ready to germinate in a helpfully nutrient-rich pigeon poo. In addition, because the kereru can fly long distances, they can disperse seeds far and wide, and this is crucial in forest regeneration. A recent study of the relationship between kereru and native trees such as taraire and karaka showed that where the birds were present in a forest but in decline, the forest regeneration declined by as much as 84 per cent.
One of the biggest threats to kereru in suburban areas is what happens when they hit a window. Nik Hurring is a tireless vet nurse who runs Project Kereru in Dunedin and she reckons 70 per cent of her injured birds have hit windows in the area. She has found a great solution in window decals that reflect ultraviolet sunlight, meaning the kereru see the decal from miles away and can take evasive aerial action before they risk hitting the window.
This rather macabre angel wing print is the sad result of a kereru hitting the window (Photo: P Kennard)
If you find a kereru that has hit a window, or appears injured in any way, pick it up carefully using a towel, hold the wings against its body and place it in a cardboard box, somewhere warm, dark and quiet. Then call the local Department of Conservation office and ask their advice.
Freedom! thanks to the endless hours put in by volunteers, kereru like this one can be released to the wild.
If you'd like to encourage kereru to stay around your area, there is a great list on the Kereru Discovery site of what to plant.
And if you want to hear what the kereru think about all this, I thoroughly recommend this funny wee video.

Senator Golden Hosts Memorial Day Salute To Brooklyn Veterans
Brooklyn- State Senator Martin J. Golden (R-C, 22nd District), a member of the State Senate Committee on Homeland Security, Veteran and Military Affairs, recently hosted a Memorial Day salute and awards ceremony for veterans of Kings County.
Senator Golden was joined by Fort Hamilton Army Base commander Tracey E. Nicholson. Golden honored the following Veteran organizations for all their work and effort to assist Brooklyn Veterans and those returning from the War in Iraq and the Brooklyn Veteran's Administration Hospital:
*Brooklyn Key Chapter of New York, American Ex-Prisoners of War
*Korean War Veterans, Chapter 171
*Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 72
*Military Order of the Purple Heart
* Disabled War Veterans
Senator Golden also memorialized Edward Cush, the late Commander of the Kings County American Legion and Chairman of the Brooklyn Memorial Day Parade, who passed away last week.
In his remarks, Senator Golden stated, "We must appreciate and support the more than 25 million living American veterans, many of whom put their lives on the line to preserve our freedoms. Our veterans served on the land, at sea, and in the air, from the shores of Omaha Beach and the jungles of Vietnam, to the sands of the Persian Gulf, in Korea, in the mountains of Afghanistan, and many other battlefields around the globe. Our proud veterans have also helped to shape the American character. They have given us an extraordinary legacy of patriotism and honor, and their service represents the highest form of citizenship."

Politics in India is a family business and people enter politics only to make money or gain undue favors with the powers that are ruling the country and state for their business entities. Parties ruling the stae and centre are no different and everywhere one can notice family rule irrespective of the party that is ruling the state. However currently there are similarities between Andhra Pradesh state and Central Govt.
In Andhra Pradesh there is strong wave in favor of late YSR widow Vijayamma,her son Jagan. Jagan after starting his career as entrepreneur became powerful MP and even internationally acclaimed all powerful Sonia Gandhi found it extremely difficult to tackle him. Somehow she managed to send him packing to chanchalguda jail but she is paying heavy cost as some of her state cabinet ministers were also found tangled in the case.
Sonia Gandhi is all powerful and omnipresent and can do anything without questioning. If anyone questions her they would be branded as traitors. Her Son Rahul Gandhi is aspiring to become PM just like Jagan dreaming of becoming CM. Sonia's son in law Robert Wadra is a powerful entrepreneur who amassed lot of wealth ten times more than that of Jagan. Even Vijayamma's son in law Brother Anil has lot of businesses.
So there are lot of similarities between Rajiv Gandhi family Sonia-Rahul-Robert and YSR family Vijayamma-Jagan-Anil. So there may be lot of understanding and both the families may even come to some sort of understanding in future.

Best Apps for BlackBerry, February 2012
Luko Remote for PlayBook
Turn your PlayBook into a remote control for your PC.
Luko remote allows you to turn your PlayBook into a keyboard and mouse for your PC allowing control directly from the comfort of your chair/couch/beanbag/hammock/bed (in approximate order of comfort). Better than this the app also comes with a file browser so you can launch apps and specific files without having to squint at the scratchy fonts on your cathode/monitor/HDTV/projector/JumboTron (in approximate order of awesome).
Of course this app is targeted at those with home theatre PCs but you can still do some handy things with it such as controlling music at a dinner/gathering/bbq/party/rave (in approximate order of musical importance) freaking out your kid brother/mother/teacher/boss/captor (in approximate order of bad-assedness) navigating through your next work presentation (well that's boring) or just a way to make sure you're keeping your calorie burning under control.
The app requires you to install a server program on your Windows XP/Vista/7 PC (available here) and also that your PlayBook exists on the same Wi-Fi network. There isn't an option to use it over 3G but unless you have some particularly good binoculars I don't really see much of a use case there anyway.
The server is easy enough to set up with the only foreseeable hiccup being a wayward firewall.
US$2.99 > Luko > Link
Jewel Breaker
A great Bejewelled clone for BlackBerry Jewel Breaker has three game modes â Standard Timed and Infinite â that should suit your mood and time frame. In case you've not played a game like this before the object is to switch pairs of gems around in order to line up three or more.
When you do those gems disappear and more squeeze down from the top to fill the gap left. This in turn can cause combos and every gamer loves combos.
US$0.99 > Toysoft Development Inc > Link
Xploding Boxes
A graphically basic version of a casual gamer classic. Touch the cubes to have them explode sending shrapnel in four directions. The shrapnel will cause other boxes to explode starting the aforementioned ever-satisfying combo move. Different coloured boxes require a different amount of touches (whether by finger or shrapnel) to explode turning this into a puzzler rather than a free-for-all experiment in ballistics.
The stark graphics help in loading times meaning you can usually squeeze a round in between answering emails no matter how old your device.
US$2.99 (Trial available) > Ebscer > Link
LocalBar for PlayBook
If you're sick and tired of having to hook your PlayBook up to your PC just to sideload an app that doesn't exist on the BB App World then LocalBar will provide you with the sweet relief that you crave so much.
Of course to get LocalBar onto your device you'll have to do the PC-Dev-mode-shuffle but once it's on your device you'll be able to download and install .bar files directly from your PlayBook browser.

Brad Pitt May Reteam with Tom Cruise for 'Go Like Hell'

Paul Rudd Cast as the Lead in Edgar Wright's 'Ant-Man' [UPDATE]
Early word about Edgar Wright's 'Ant-Man' was that Paul Rudd and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were the frontrunners to play Ant-Man/Hank Pym. With Gordon-Levitt now attached to 'The Sandman,' Rudd has landed the role, and is in early talks to sign on.
Hugh Jackman Might Play Blackbeard in 'Pan'
Hugh Jackman has made intimations that he might be getting tired playing Wolverine, even with 'X-Men: Days of Future Past,' 'X-Men: Apocalypse' and 'The Wolverine 2' all being worked on. Perhaps the best way to liven things up is to play a villain for a change, and that might be what he does next as he's in talks to join Joe Wright's Peter Pan update/origin film 'Pan' as the villainous Captain Blackbeard.
'Blended' Trailer: Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore Reunite for a New Rom-Com

'The Purge 2′ Binges on Frank Grillo as Lead
'The Purge 2' is due out in June next year, so it's going to have to work quickly to make that release date. The film has just started casting, and Frank Grillo has signed on to play the lead.
'Bad Boys 3′ is Looking For a Writer, But Will Martin Lawrence and Will Smith Return?
Though it's been rumored for a while, Sony has made steps to get a 'Bad Boys 3' off the ground and is looking to hire a writer to pen a third entry in the franchise. That doesn't mean that Will Smith, Michael Bay or Martin Lawrence will return, but it's a start.
'Jupiter Ascending' Trailer: Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis Star in a Sci-Fi Opera
The Wachowskis are known for the big, wild ideas -- at least going by the first 'Matrix' and last year's 'Cloud Atlas' -- but we're left jaw agape after watching the trailer for their new film 'Jupiter Ascending.'
Tom Cruise to Return for 'Jack Reacher 2′
One of 2012's most pleasant surprises was Christopher McQuarrie's 'Jack Reacher,' which starred Tom Cruise as the titular bad ass. As it was based on a series of books by Lee Child it seemed ready to spawn a franchise, but the film's modestly-hyped Christmas release suggested that Paramount didn't know if they had a winner. The film was a modest success, and now Paramount is working on developing a sequel.
Disney Set to Distribute Future 'Indiana Jones' Movies
When George Lucas sold his 'Star Wars' empire to Disney, there was a question of who then would control Indiana Jones, as the films were made by Lucasfilm but distributed by Paramount. Today it was ironed out that Disney now controls the rights to all future Indiana Jones adventures.

The Three Worlds of Welfare Capitalism
Few discussions in modern social science have occupied as much attention as the changing nature of welfare states in Western societies. Gøsta Esping-Andersen, one of the foremost contributors to current debates on this issue, here provides a new analysis of the character and role of welfare states in the functioning of contemporary advanced Western societies. Esping-Andersen distinguishes three major types of welfare state, connecting these with variations in the historical development of different Western countries. He argues that current economic processes, such as those moving toward a postindustrial order, are shaped not by autonomous market forces but by the nature of states and state differences. Fully informed by comparative materials, this book will have great appeal to all those working on issues of economic development and postindustrialism. Its audience will include students of sociology, economics, and politics.

With the Tuesday release of the Iron Man 2 tie-in game, Sega has apparently carried on the long tradition of making sub-par interactive movie adaptations. But with the state of storytelling in today's video games, why bother doing tie-ins at all? The best games are doing fine on their own merits.
This occurred to me with the latest round of sequels flooding consoles as of late. As derivative as they are (that's another discussion), BioShock 2's continuation of the pitfalls of objectivist, free-market and free-will ideals gone awry and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' strident, Indiana Jones-inspired treasure-hunting are pretty rich source material that are at least as entertaining as anything coming out of Hollywood these days. Better, in some cases.
The litmus test lately, however, is gaming's ability to convey subtlety and complexity without ham-handedly spelling out the conflict at hand. Gone are the days of 1989's Zero Wing, when an evil villain had to announce "All your base are belong to us." The technology has advanced to the point where Mass Effect 2's Commander Shepard has to decide which among his squad members lives or dies based on the player's decisions, and can convey all the emotion necessary for that conflict. In a climactic battle that finally lets you include your entire party, all of whom have a backstory that's been developed in detail, it packs a real emotional punch when someone perishes — including, possibly, Shepard himself. Marvelous.
But both cinematic presentation and character-driven plot dovetail best in last month's Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction, the fifth title in that series from Ubisoft. The saga of bad-ass protagonist Sam Fisher is nothing groundbreaking, but is illustrated in a decidedly mature and professional way. Combine that with a technical package that far exceeds the series' predecessors and the tale is woven so intricately that all you need is popcorn.
The literary device of having Navy SEAL Victor Coste recount the game's story as a flashback is not new, but it is an effect wielded so slickly, you can't help but be drawn in. Using Michael Ironside as the voice actor for Fisher doesn't hurt, either.
The real trick here is that the conventional problems of video game narratives have melted away. There are no real loading screens; the heavy lifting is done while Fisher is speaking with an NPC or performing an unplayable action. Levels and mission objectives — eliminating surveillance tails, chasing an assassin through a crowd, performing surveillance on a mark — are varied and most important of all, playable.
Compare this to past attempts to make story-rich games like the also-spy-themed Metal Gear series. Hideo Kojima's saga, in hindsight, is a mess, frustrating players by forcing them to sit through cinematic after cinematic while waiting for a few moments of clumsily controlled action. Consider the penultimate entry in that series, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, which we were told was the end-all, be-all of the genre, was released just a few years ago and you'll see how far we've come in such a short time.
Conviction, meanwhile, progresses its convoluted plot by making you learn the story to advance. Quicktime events are limited to interrogations of NPCs. Controls and instructions are seamlessly projected onto the screen in such an unobtrusive way, you barely notice the jerky, Paul Greengrass-style camera direction, which is likely just how Ubisoft wanted it.
This is in contrast to the adaptation of Avatar, a low-selling title that got awful reviews and a less-than-middling response from gamers, despite its inspiration's billion-dollar box office status. It's interesting that title, while based on source material that was hardly original yet well-made (just like Conviction), has fared so poorly. Maybe that's because it tried to hard to be like a game.

Having already caused a fuss this spring with the depiction of the prophet Muhammad on South Park, Comedy Central said Thursday that it has a cartoon series about Jesus Christ in the works.
JC is one of 23 potential series the network said it has in development. It depicts Christ as a "regular guy" who moves to New York to "escape his father's enormous shadow."
His father is presented as an apathetic man who would rather play video games than listen to his son talk about his new life, according to the thumbnail sketch of the idea. Reveille, the production company behind The Office, Ugly Betty and The Biggest Loser, is making JC.
A development deal is a couple of steps ahead of a series making it to air and, in fact, most such deals don't result in series. The network would have to like the scripts enough to produce a test episode, then like that enough to put it on the air. — Associated Press

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- We've had a number of examples of technology mishaps that have wreaked havoc on investors, from network breakdowns to seemingly rogue trading algorithms -- the latest being from Knight Capital ( KCG).That "glitch" entered an erroneous trade last week that put the firm's survival in jeopardy by costing it more than $400 million on the balance sheet. It also forced the company into accepting "partners" under the worst of desperate situations. Most know me as just shy of a total luddite who, for the record, made a very handsome living early in my career selling executives on the benefits of voice, video and data technology. However, I have come to see the downside of technology's transition from tool to master. Consider the advancing psychology profession's acceptance of "Internet addiction." Even the current president of the U.S. admitted early on to his "CrackBerry" (BlackBerry) addiction. As an aside, consider the company value devastation that Research in Motion ( RIMM) has experienced with its BlackBerry platform and network crashes over the past year. We are becoming so reliant on being connected all the time, in every way possible, that people have two and three communication devices that they're constantly checking, especially if they don't ring or vibrate within fifteen minutes. There is no relief in sight to being constantly connected to work and social media sites, and anticipating the next buzz for attention. Technology has turned into the greatest ego-booster, prompting us to announce we have the latest and greatest upgrade that made obsolete the last product in four months time. We have become obsessed with the number of apps we have, many of which we rarely, if ever, use. From the beginnings of our technological advances in manufacturing, we have embraced the replacement of human beings with automation. While machines may certainly appear cheaper in terms of benefits and they don't take sick days, clearly the machines have carried over their human creators' fallibility amid fatigue and what I'll call "oops factor." After all, it seems every time a machine fails, it's explained away as "operator error," "programming error" or "a glitch." Translation: "Oops!"

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
The following is part of Chris Hayes's great intro to his MSNBC show "Up With Chris" yesterday, which once again featured independent analysis of the conflict. (Though the initial tilt of the discussion is toward the J Street line on two states.)
Here's the lesson as far as I can tell. If you recognize Israel, if you are credibly committed to nonviolence, you will get rolled, marginalized, undercut and left looking like a loser. [Palestinian Authority] But if you fire rockets into the heart of Israel, if you kidnap their soldiers, well then they'll negotiate and adjust their policies. How perverse is that?…
In allowing this to continue and refusing to pressure the Israeli government to take concrete steps toward peace in the West Bank, such as stopping all settlement growth, they're turning a blind eye and turning a blind eye while unarmed protesters in towns like Budrus and Nabi Saleh are imprisoned, teargassed and in some cases shot and killed by IDF soldiers, away from the eyes of American cameras, with no condemnation from our government– we in the U.S. are creating the conditions in which terrorism, the great evil we have pledged ourselves to vanquish, brings strategic benefits, while the path of nonviolence leads to a dead end. What a sorry legacy for everyone involved in helping this to come to pass.
In the next segment, Katrina vanden Heuvel of The Nation argues that Israel launched the war and opens the door on the most important factor in US policymaking, the Israel lobby.
"Overarching all of this– and this is such a painful issue to discuss, and anything we say on this show is going to be criticized– overarching all of it is a history, going back at least to '67 of the United States role as the enabler, as the political, diplomatic, economic, military enabler of an Israeli policy that in many ways and a younger generation is seeing– Israelis– that is not in the long term benefit of the security of the country….
She urges viewers to watch the documentary, The Gatekeepers. "Largely due to Israel's failure to deal with the political causes of the Palestinian problem," Palestinians have committed acts of terror. And Israel has responded with terror.
Hayes then notes that American policy is "on the road to nowhere." And in the third segment says that Americans are imbedded in this conflict and again brings up the lobby: that certain American groups are "obviously very very invested in [the conflict]." Tennessee Congressman Steve Cohen immediately brings up the American Jewish community.
Vanden Heuvel in the third segment speaks of Israel's rightwing ugliness, and cites Ariel Sharon's son Gilad's argument that Israel should treat Gaza as the US treated Hiroshima.

|August 2010
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|August 2012
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|July 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Group 1 - Non-Delirius Patients
|Group 2 - Delirious Patients
Detailed Description:
Delirium is often missed because physicians do not routinely screen for this diagnosis. Most delirium assessments can take up to 10 minutes to perform making them less likely to be incorporated into the routine physician assessment. Using brief (<2 minutes) and easy to use delirium assessments may ameliorate this quality of care issue. The Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU) possesses these characteristics, but has only been validated in mechanically and non-mechanically ventilated intensive care unit patients. As a result, it still requires validation in the non-ICU hospitalized patients. Recently, we also developed the Brief Confusion Assessment Method (B-CAM) which is a modification of the CAM-ICU. The benefit is that it takes even less time than the CAM-ICU. However, it also requires validation in hospitalized patients. As result, we propose the following and the following specific aims:
Aim #1: To validate the B-CAM in non-ICU hospitalized patients. The B-CAM will be performed by a clinical trials associate (CTA) and principal investigator in 150 non-ICU hospitalized patients that are > 65 years old. This instrument will be validated against a psychiatrist's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th. Edition Text Revision assessment as the reference standard.
Aim #2: To validate the CAM-ICU in non-ICU hospitalized patients. The CAM-ICU will be performed by a clinical trials associate (CTA) and principal investigator in approximately 150 non-ICU hospitalized patients that are > 65 years old. This instrument will be validated against a psychiatrist's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th. Edition Text Revision assessment as the reference standard.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|65 Years and older (Adult, Senior)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
|Sampling Method:
|Non-Probability Sample
Inclusion Criteria:
- 65 years of age or greater
- In the non-ICU inpatient setting
- Consulted and evaluated by psychiatry
Exclusion Criteria:
- Severe mental retardation or dementia
- Baseline communication barriers such aphasia, deafness, blindness, or who are unable to speak English
- Refusal of consent
- Previous enrollment
- Comatose
- Out of hospital before the assessments are completed

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
Madrid, Spain, 2009/11/25 - Ibys Technologies announces the extension of its End-to-End QoS solution Xplorer by adding a brand new module that is able to execute tests and to measure the quality of Blackberry services by using just a Blackberry phone.
Ibys Technologies Solution Xplorer QoS System uses Probe Units that are in charge of executing all Quality of Service tests. Each of these Probe Units simulates complex end-user behavior handling up to 8 test interfaces at the same time. Like end-users, the Probe Units use devices like Blackberry phones, commercial and industrial cell phones, fixed lines, xDSL routers, WiMAX interfaces, etc. for the testing process.
The new module grants independence to the Blackberry phone and allows monitoring Blackberry services without having the phone physically connected to a Probe Unit. A small Software Agent installed on the Blackberry device monitors the Blackberry services and sends the monitoring data to Xplorer, where the data is processed. The scheduling of all activities is done on the Xplorer System. In addition to the Blackberry service test, this module also allows a monitoring of the device itself. The Xplorer Web interface provides a Real Time Monitor of all active Blackberry devices as well as a historical Log.
Ibys CEO, Fernando Palop says, This new module is absolutely perfect for the operators to deliver best-of-breed services to their Corporate Customers and increase the loyalty of these. This new module within Xplorer is able to monitor the quality of service in the native environment of the end-user itself, places like offices, the VIP lounge in the airport, Malls, etc., where conventional monitoring probes don´t reach.
About Ibys
Ibys Technologies S.A. (ibys.com) is a Spanish company with international operation founded in 1989 and is dedicated to designing, manufacturing and delivering of End-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) Testing, Performance and Monitoring Solutions for worldwide Telecom Authorities and Telecom Operators.
