Brunch links: times they are a-changin' edition
Neither rain nor snow nor gloom of the empty Federal Triangle: The GSA is considering a public-private partnership for the underutilized Old Post Office building. Redevelopment might include restaurants, residences and/or a hotel in place of or in addition to the current government offices (while preserving the building, of course). Eleanor Holmes Norton is pushing a bill to let GSA explore these options. San Francisco Chronicle via Penn Quarter Living.
San Andreas faulty urban planning: The LA Times looks at a future of $200-a-barrel oil. Rapidly rising oil prices "would be the urban-planning equivalent of an earthquake," says a member of the LA City Planning Commission. Via Matthew Yglesias.
Mincing no words in Hawaii: Honolulu's mayor publicly accuses transit opponents of being shills for oil and auto companies. Local Reason Foundation fellows vociferously deny the charge while collecting their paychecks from the foundation, which is backed by oil and auto companies. Honolulu Star-Bulletin via The Overhead Wire.
The Hawaii rail project cites the following:
"Rail will be an environmental blight, snaking through town as high as 120 feet!"
but then promotes an HOV lane for their freeway that is probably just as tall... lols.
"Rail is noisy!" And a freeway isn't?
"NEA Chairman Dana Gioia made it clear the agency wants to remain in the Old Post Office.
"The nation is better served to have its arts agency housed in a masterpiece of American architecture rather than a soulless high rise on K Street," he said in a statement."
While I think the conclusion is a bit self-serving, I still agree with the sentiment.

ChangeWave: iPhone owns 23% of smartphone market
According to the results of the latest ChangeWave smartphone survey, the iPhone's market share jumped 6 points between September and December to 23%. RIM's Blackberry phones continue to lead the market, although their market share dropped one point to 41%. For the first time since January's survey, a higher percentage of respondents planning to purchase a smartphone in the next 90 days said they would buy a Blackberry instead of an iPhone, with 39% stating they planned to buy a RIM device compared to 30% who plan to purchase Apple's smartphone. Interestingly, the survey also found initial consumer satisfaction ratings for Blackberry's touchscreen-based iPhone rival Storm to be well below those of the original iPhone, or even the average for all Blackberry users. 33% of respondents said they were "very satisfied" with the Storm, compared to 77% for owners of the original iPhone, and 52% for all Blackberry users. ChangeWave's survey was conducted on December 9-15 and included roughly 3,800 cell phone owners.

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/21/12 --
Editors Note: There are 3 photos associated with this press release.
Cadillac Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CDC) ("Cadillac" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the resumption of exploration on the Burnt Hill Property in New Brunswick. The Burnt Hill property covers more than 125 square kilometres in central New Brunswick with 43-101 compliant tungsten, tin and moly resources calculated in 2009.
"Cadillac is expanding on previous work at Burnt Hill, specifically investigating showings outside of the former mine area which contains the defined resources, and the area in between the mine and known showings, to investigate the theory that there is a larger system of mineralization present on the property than currently known. We have commenced a basic surface exploration program before snow prevents that work" stated Norman Brewster P.Geo, President and CEO of Cadillac.
Phase 1 - Ground Exploration Program Commences
Two prospecting crews are presently in the field working on the Burnt Hill property, targeting the following areas (1) Tin Hill (2) Burnt Hill Brook Area (3) Burnt Hill Mine Area and (4) 2 1/2 Mile Brook area as seen in the map covering a portion of the property below (To view this map, please visit the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/Cadillacmap1.pdf).
The sampling program in each area, depicted by green dots above, has successfully located outcrop mineralization within quartz veining at each site, consisting of either/or cassiterite, wolframite and/or molybdenite alone or in combination. The mineralization encountered has been sampled, and will be submitted to an assay laboratory for testing. Once available these results will be released.
"The field success of the sampling program to date in locating outcrop veining containing visible mineralization supports the theory we are testing, that there may be a larger mineralization system present at Burnt Hill than presently known," stated Brian Newton P.Geo of Billiken Management Services Inc., exploration manager for the 2012 Burnt Hill exploration program.
Mr. Brian H. Newton, P.Geo, of Billiken Management Services Inc., is a "Qualified Persons" pursuant to NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the contents of this press release.
About Cadillac
Cadillac is a development-focused copper company currently advancing its 100% owned Thierry Property, near Pickle Lake, Ontario.

In addition, Cadillac also holds a 51% interest in the Burnt Hill Project, a historic tungsten/tin mine taken to test production by Mr. Norman Brewster P.Geo for Canadian International Paper during the early 1980's. Cadillac looks forward to resuming the development of this project.

What we commonly refer to as "carbon" is actually a composite of fibers and epoxy resin. The resin's function is to join and bond the fibers, as well as protect the overall structure from external forces. In order to avoid potential points of weakness that could result from micro-gaps in a composite layup, we've implemented an ultra low density nanoparticle Zinc Oxide ("ZnO") resin. This results in a stronger composite with higher resistance to impact while enabling us to reduce the weight of our frames due to its superior structural integrity. What this means out on the road is improved durability and amazingly responsive handling - the hallmark of our frames.
Our unique rear triangle concept has been influenced in part by advanced motorcycle design. We have created a seamless, integrated monocoque unit that unifies seat and chainstays,as well as all-carbon dropouts, for more immediate power transfer and superb handling.
The strongest, most resilient carbon fiber. The name of Mitsubishi's wonder-composite conveys its ability to withstand 46 tons of pressure per cubic millimeter.We implement 46 TON in the construction of our bikes for unequaled strength, stability and durability.
Wilier Monocoque System: Wilier Triestina leverages the latest in carbon monocoque technologies to eliminate vulnerable areas and create frames that are lightweight, efficient and compliant.
Wilier Triestina still insisted on a design that allowed for fine-tuning of rear wheel position and therefore of the cogset's orientation in relation to the rear derailleur. This enables optimal wheel alignment, aerodynamic positioning and smooth shifting. Thanks to our innovative solution providing 6mm of adjustability, wheel base and distance from tire to the rear of our truncated seat tube airfoil are customizable. This enables both aerodynamic and bike handling optimizations, as well as making wheel changes fast and simple.

National Qualification for Bicycle Mechanics in South Africa
Posted on in Cycles News
Torq Zone Academy, Cytech's training provider in South Africa, are currently working on getting bicycle mechanics recognised as a National Qualification in South Africa and having it registered on the National Qualifications Framework [NQF].
The story so far
The Academy initiated the process with the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations [QCTO] back in late 2014 (before the Academy was established), with progress being slightly delayed until early 2015. A meeting was held and hosted by the QCTO with attendance by representatives from most major cycling brands, where the decision was made to continue the qualification's development with Torq Zone Academy championing the process.
The Wholesale and Retail Sector Education and Training Authority [W&RSETA] was then approached and agreed to act as the Qualification Development Partner. Under their guidance and along with the major cycling brands, industry representatives and Torq Zone Academy the development of the qualification concluded in March 2016.
The W&RSETA submitted the qualification to the QCTO at the end of March 2016, where it has since been approved and will shortly be circulated for public comment.
The qualification
The qualification will consist of two part-qualifications which culminate in the achievement of a parent qualification. The first part-qualification, the Bicycle Repairer, essentially contains all the learning outcomes from Cytech technical one and two and the second part-qualification, the Bicycle Component Specialist, includes all the learning outcomes from Cytech technical three. The parent qualification, the Occupational Certificate: Bicycle Mechanic, includes learning outcomes related to learnership and supervision in the workshop, along with bicycle consumables, threads and material technology.
Each part-qualification and the parent qualification and will contain Knowledge, Practical and Workplace Experience components, which culminate in an independent Integrated Assessment. Both the Knowledge and Practical components will be completed at an accredited training provider like the Academy, with the Workplace Experience component being completed at an accredited workshop.
- Benefits of registering this qualification, to South Africa and the industry as a whole, include:
- Clarity, recognition and portability of learning achievement
- Standardised training and learning assessment
- Employer access to National Skills Funds [NSF] mandatory and discretionary funding (in South Africa)
- Consumer confidence and peace of mind
- Equality of esteem with other occupations
After public comment has been received the qualification will be submitted to the South African Qualifications Authority [SAQA] for approval, and if successful, registered under the Occupational Qualifications Sub-Framework [OQSF] of the NQF. It is expected that this will be finalised by November 2016.
At this point Torq Zone Academy will apply to the QTCO for accreditation to offer the qualification, which should be granted by June 2017 with the Academy delivering the qualification by July 2017. The Academy will then hope to certificate learners for the South African National Qualification alongside the already established and internationally recognised Cytech qualification.

Operation and controls
At a glance the R707 might look like nothing more than a stylish point-and-shoot camera, but once you start to dig a little deeper you'll find a real wealth of features designed to help the novice snapper, as well as a few manual controls thrown in for the more experienced user. As with most compact cameras with limited real estate available for external controls the majority of the more advanced features are accessed via the extensive on-screen menu system. The most commonly accessed functions - macro mode, flash mode and self-timer - get their own buttons, as do HP's now standard instant sharing and printing features.

Sketch o'the Week- The 12th Doctor!
The BBC just released the first image of Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor, complete with his costume, so I could not resist doing a drawing of him as the official Doctor.
I will NOT be issuing another limited edition print with Capaldi added, because that would just not be right. I am happy that the drawing I was doing of him as the "12th Doctor option" on the current print was not too far from his actual look in the show:
For the few remaining ones of these I do, I will get the specifics of the costume more accurate. BTW, I have less than 30 of these prints left now. Going fast!
This is awesome!!! I already have a "Doctor is in" print. It's says the twelve doctors…even though you didn't draw in Capaldi. I booth sat at mcba fall con for you so you gave me a print. Before that I hadn't seen a single episode of Doctor Who! But I thought if I was gonna frame the art I should at least watch a few episodes…Now I'm a total WHOVIAN!!!!
Great! Will you ever do John Hurt's incarnation? 🙂
why no 10th doctor in the single doctors
Tom, i purchased your "Doctor is in" print (with 12th Doctor option) and i fully agree… his look is "close enough" to his official look for me. The print is absolutely brilliant. …and i've also seen your more recent sketch of Hurt's Doctor… also great!!

Analyst: Stock Market Values Zynga At Below Zero
J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth recently stated that Zynga's market capitalization, about $1.87 billion at the time of this writing, has fallen below the total value "of the cash it has on hand, the securities it owns, and the amount it paid in March for its San Francisco headquarters." At the end of June, Zynga's total assets were value at about $2.7 billion, which means that the market values Zynga's actual business at below zero.
A report published by the LA Times cited additional negative analyst notes, one of which raised the concern of "significant" layoffs in the coming months. At this time, it appears that Zynga has lost all investor confidence and will need a major turnaround to regain the trust it once had.
That turnaround may not come soon enough, as the company announced last week that it expects to report a net loss of between $90 million and $105 million for the fourth quarter, mainly due to a $85 million to $95 write-down on the Draw Something acquisition. Zynga also lowered its full-year outlook to revenues of $1.085 billion to $1.100 billion, down from $1.150 billion to $1.225 billion. The shortfall was attributed to delays of "several" games as well as "reduced expectations for certain web games including The Ville."
mikenygmailWrong, the stock market values ZNGA at $2.45 per share.
That's the current price right now in after hours.
You could buy it for $2.46 per share, or sell it for $2.44 per share.
If we are to believe the analyst, then ZNGA would be an easy short.
Things are rarely that easy in the stock market, which is heavily manipulated.
Exactly. Jokes aside if this stock were valued below zero I'd go get 10 mortgages and buy it because there is an extreme inefficiency in the market and I want to cash in.
I hate Zynga but from a business perspective, if you can generate money from fools by churning out trash games that are simply reskinned (Angry Birds -> Angry Pigs), then why not?
raytsengi'm not sure if people misread the article are actually trying to make some odd point.
yes headline is misleading, but article explains that their "business" is valued at zero, or negative.
So YES, you go take out a $1.87billion loan, buy every share of zynga. Then if you can liquidate all the office equipment and other physical stuff for it's amortized value, and get someone to takeover your lease(s) on the buildings with no time gap, then YES you break even.
(of course this is making the assumption they don't have poison pills to prevent a takeover, and every share is for sale).
But yea, that is exactly how I read the article.
What the valuation is saying is that the analysts believe the direction of the company is currently to just burn and lose more value and money.
If I could buy their company for 1.87B and they have assets valued at 2.7B then I'd be doing a lot more than breaking even.
That article, from two months ago, cites some similar numbers, but they have the $2.7B in assets plus ~$0.85B in liabilities coming out to $1.86B. Does that mean that the $1.87B market cap actually just means the business, assets excluded, is just "nearly" worthless [about $10M], not worth less than zero?

Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Maglite 2D PRO LED Blisterpack Flashlight - Black (DIY & Tools)
It's hand's down the best torch I've ever bought.
Far brighter than the 3D LED but of course the battery doesn't last nearly as long. The beam focus is excellent over great distances. I have the Maglite MAG-TAC to go along with this and they compliment each other perfectly. Entirely waterproof, can be dropped out of a first floor window and it would probably be perfectly fine. Batteries are a doddle to replace. Great for blinding intruders and proceeding to hit them over the head (An actual use of this torch). The finish is very resilient on these although I prefer the red finish better, the black is still nice.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/22/14 -- Iron Creek Capital Corp. (TSX VENTURE: IRN) ("Iron Creek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the previously announced acquisition of five exploration properties prospective for gold, silver and copper, located in northern Chile, from Minera Fuego Limitada, ("Fuego"), a privately owned Chilean exploration company. Additionally, and as part of the agreement with Fuego, Raymond Jannas has been appointed to Iron Creek's Board of Directors.
Tim Beale, President of Iron Creek, commented: "We are pleased to have closed the previously announced deal with Minera Fuego that allows Iron Creek to significantly increase its property portfolio in several highly prospective mineral belts of northern Chile. This signifies another milestone for 2014 after the consolidation of the Company's shares and the successfully raising of approximately C$5.6 million in a private placement financing. The important San Guillermo property is complementary to our existing Las Pampas and Magallanes properties, and establishes Iron Creek as a major player in the important Paleocene mineral belt. These properties are low altitude, easily accessed, and are highly prospective for bonanza-style epithermal precious metals veins. Calvario-Mirador, San Valentino and Reina Hija all represent porphyry copper targets with significant untested potential, particularly for deeper hypogene copper centres. Bronce Weste has potential for mineralised veins, as well as a possible deep porphyry copper target.
The company will focus in the short term on reprocessing existing exploration databases in order to refine target models, complemented by limited additional surface exploration, prior to farming out the most attractive targets for third party investment and drill testing.
We are also delighted to welcome Raymond Jannas to our Board of Directors. Raymond will strengthen the board and bring significant knowledge and an important network of contacts to help support our efforts to continue growing Iron Creek."
About the Acquisition
Pursuant to a previously announced binding Letter of Intent (see the Company's news release dated May 6, 2014), a wholly owned Chilean subsidiary of Iron Creek has concluded the purchase and acquisition from Fuego of 100% of five mining concessions in northern Chile known as the San Guillermo, Calvario-Mirador, San Valentino, Reina Hija and Bronce Weste concessions (the "Concessions").
In consideration for the Concessions, Iron Creek has granted to Fuego a 2% Net Smelter Royalty on precious metals and a 1% Net Smelter Royalty on base metals mined from the Concessions (the "NSR Royalties"), and issued to Fuego 3,479,464 common shares, representing 9.9% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company. Iron Creek shall have the perpetual right to acquire 50% of each of the NSR Royalties on each property in consideration of a cash payment to Fuego of USD 5.0 million, on a property by property basis.
Additionally, the Company shall issue a further 1 million common shares to Fuego upon completion by Iron Creek of its first feasibility study regarding a project to be developed on any of the Concessions.
About the Concessions
San Guillermo comprises more than 24,000 hectares (Ha) of exploration and mining tenement located about 70 kilometers (km) southeast of Taltal within the Palaeocene Belt of northern Chile, a highly productive mineral belt containing numerous important gold, silver and copper mines and projects, including Yamana Gold's (TSX: YRI) El Penon and Fortuna mines. San Guillermo complements Iron Creek's 50,000 Ha Las Pampas property located some 100 km to the north that was optioned to Kinross Gold's (TSX: K) Chilean subsidiary in April 2014. The San Guillermo property also surrounds Yamana Gold's Amancaya project (currently subject to a sale agreement with Austral Gold Limited (ASX: AGD)), where several precious metals-rich veins have been drill tested. San Guillermo is mainly prospective for low-sulphidation epithermal precious metals veins similar to those found at Amancaya and El Penon. Previous exploration by Fuego, including approximately 46,000 m of drilling, has focused on several targets on the San Guillermo property. Numerous drill intercepts are reported, but much of the property remains unexplored.
Calvario-Mirador represents two targets separated by about 10 km of strike located about 83 km northeast of La Serena, along the southern extensions of the highly productive and prospective north Chilean porphyry copper belt. The northern Calvario porphyry Cu-Mo target (2,200 Ha) is situated along trend and approximately 100 km to the south of Teck's (TSX: TCK.A)(TSX: TCK.B) Relincho porphyry copper and molybdenum project. The Mirador porphyry Cu-Mo target (3,300 Ha) is centred about 10 km to the south of Calvario. Approximately 4,300 m of drilling at Calvario has cut weak secondary enrichment to date. No drilling has been carried out at Mirador.
San Valentino comprises 1,200 Ha of tenement and lies within the Central Chilean porphyry copper province, located in the region of Santiago, which hosts some of the most important copper deposits in the country. San Valentino is situated approximately 48 km south-southwest of Antofagasta Minerals' (LSE: ANTO) giant copper mine at Los Pelambres, and about 38 km northwest of Los Andes Copper Ltd.'s (TSX VENTURE: LA) Vizcachitas project. San Valentino represents a poorly eroded porphyry copper system, where a buried hypogene core is the main target. Peripheral auriferous silica ledges have been tested by approximately 1,600 m of drilling carried out by Fuego.
Reina Hija comprises 1,800 Ha of tenement located around the southern margins of the Queen Elizabeth porphyry copper exploration project of Anglo American (LSE: AAL), and along the northern extensions of the Domeyko Cordillera porphyry copper belt in northern Chile. Evidence for both low-sulphidation epithermal precious metals (Cerro Vilacollo) and hypogene porphyry copper (Diana) mineralisation exists on the property. The property is situated along trend and 120 km north-northwest of the giant Collahuasi copper mining district of Anglo American and Glencore (LSE: GLEN).
Bronce Weste totals 4,344 Ha and is located southeast of Los Vilos and immediately to the west of the El Bronce de Petorca Au-Ag-Cu mines (Cia. Minera Can-Can S.A.). A limited number of structural targets anomalous in Cu, Au and other elements have been tested by Fuego by almost 5,000 m of drilling. A very large, structurally controlled alteration zone on the property remains to be fully explored.
Appointment to the Board of Directors of Iron Creek - Raymond Jannas
As part of the agreement with Fuego, Iron Creek has appointed Raymond Jannas to Iron Creek's Board of Directors with immediate effect. Raymond, a Chilean national, brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Iron Creek's board with over 33 years' experience in mining geology, exploration and business development with companies such as Hochschild Mining, Gold Fields, Metallica Resources and LAC Minerals. During his career, Raymond has headed discovery teams that led to the discovery of deposits such as Pascua-Lama and El Morro in Chile, and Choco 10 in Venezuela, as well as the acquisition of Cerro Corona in Peru. Raymond is currently a consultant to Fuego, President of his own consulting company, and is a director of Southern Legacy Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE: LCY). Fuego shall have the right to designate a member of the Company's Board so long as Fuego owns more than 5% of the Company's common shares.
Dr. Demetrius Pohl, PhD., Certified Professional Geoscientist (CPG), an independent consultant, is the Company's Qualified Person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosures for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators, and has approved the written disclosure of the technical information contained in this news release.

Iron Creek Capital Corp. is a Vancouver-based exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of world-class mineral systems in Chile. The Company has assembled a portfolio of exploration projects prospective for gold, silver and copper mineralization.

It's You Lyrics
Artist: Chaka Khan
Album: Destiny
It's you, no one else will do
I knew one day
Another true love would come my way
Only time will tell
If it's right, it just can't fail
And there you were
And my quest for love is over
Now my only lover...is you
No one else will do
It's true
I'm the only one for you
Love ain't so bad
If you have an understanding
You know it's everlasting
You let it show with the test of time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Without a doubt
Now my quest for love is over
Now my only lover
It's you....I'll never love another
Nobody can take your place
Without a doubt
My quest for love is over
My only lover
It's you

I don't like having a them-and-us mentality; it leads to bigotry.
I like it even less when I worry whether, put to the test, I'd be too scared to stand up to people who appal me.
Ongoing attacks on police and firefighters - the latest in pretty little Kawhia - and the odd attack on an ambulance officer drive home that we're a divided society in more ways than financial.
Those people deserve to do their job in peace; what they do is useful and necessary. But some people - I'll call them thems - don't see it that way.
They regard police, fire and ambulance officers as instruments of the law who might obstruct their freedom to fight, maim, kill, drink-drive, bash babies, deal drugs and all the other joys of unstructured, aimless living.
Anarchic people wish nobody any good, least of all their own families.
How and why they get that way may be a fascinating area of academic study and I wish academics joy of it, but other people have to live among them, taking no chances that they'll behave like civilised people and simply trying not to attract their attention.
It's this that makes cowards of us. We cross the street to avoid them, overlook their neglected children, close our ears to the women getting bashed, ignore the fighting and vandalism that makes living near them miserable, and hope and pray that they won't pick on us next.
Featherston - scene of one recent homicide - is one place where I wouldn't want to live. No dark act comes as a surprise from that small, seemingly quaint colonial town, with a beaut war memorial but a dire recent history of murdered children.
An interesting detail about this latest killing is the local volunteers who are brave enough to carry out informal policing of the town, quietly keeping track of who goes where and when, in the absence of a cop on the beat.
Thanks to them, some people allegedly involved in the lethal attack on a local man have been arrested.
A group attack on one person would once have been considered cowardly and shameful. But that was a while back.
The theme has been echoed in pretty little Kawhia, where I've sat on holiday and looked out to sea, and browsed in the old museum. It looks like heaven on a fine summer day and you could idly fantasise about living there, but like so many outwardly quiet places inhabited by a minority of thems, Kawhia has another side to it.
A weekend attack on the town's lone policeman was another case of the many falling, in feral fashion, on the one. Nastily enough, the town's former sole policeman was also bashed there, while investigating the scene of a murder. The current policeman, Perry Griffin, was trying to arrest a wanted man.
Again, the brave few came to the aid of the policeman, not the many, who stood and stared, some reportedly egging the attackers on. Volunteer firefighters, more than half of them women, came to the rescue, kept the attackers at bay, gave first aid and ensured the safety of holidaymakers until police backup arrived - from 40 minutes away.
Mr Griffin has said he'll go back to work in Kawhia. His predecessor didn't, and who could blame him?
Meanwhile, Martinborough's Peter Fisher, another volunteer firefighter, hopes to get back to work once his badly bashed face has healed, his family says. He stepped forward late last year to eject a gatecrasher from a teenager's party. The gatecrasher turned on him, bashing him so badly that Wellington's revered plastic surgeon, Swee Tan, said putting his face back together was like doing a jigsaw puzzle. Mr Fisher also has some paralysis from the assault.
Martinborough is another quaint colonial town where you might imagine enjoying a quiet life. But I doubt that fantasy is likely to be a reality anywhere in this country, any time soon.
