The Changing Face of Literacy
Students need our help to develop the skills to understand today's barrage of media messages.
By Renee Hobbs
Walking down the corridors of a suburban middle school, the distinctive sound of a television commercial stands out against the more traditional patter of classroom noises: Yo! Are you hip to these? Are you in the know? Cause here's where Eggo Minis are made to go-- In Yo' Mouth! Who needs a plate? In Yo' Mouth! Cause they're made to fit your face! In Yo' Mouth! They're mega-yum. In Yo' Mouth! The taste is pure fun!
Inside, a teacher is leading a discussion about the ad. "Who's the target audience?" he asks.
"Boys our age," responds a student. "They only showed boys."
"And the music— it was like rap music, sung by boys," chimes in another. "It's sung in a kind of aggressive way. And the words, 'In Yo' Mouth'— that reminds me of 'In Yo' Face!'"
"What's a synonym for 'In Yo' Face?'" asks the teacher, feigning ignorance. The class erupts in laughter, and a chorus of replies follows. The teacher flips open the thesaurus and adds some additional words: defiance, bravado, dare.
He then changes the pace. "Everybody take five minutes and write down one or two reasons why the producer chose this phrase for the Eggo Mini Waffles campaign." Notebooks fly open and students get quickly down to writing. This is clearly something they have been doing regularly in this class. After five minutes, he asks students to read their ideas aloud. Six hands are in the air.
A dark-haired girl begins to read. "The producer wants to show that eating Lego Mini Waffles is a way of showing independence, being defiant."
"The producer wants kids to think it's cool to eat breakfast on the run, not with a plate, not sitting down," reads another student.
"The producer might want to link Lego Mini Waffles with the attitude of 'In Yo' Face!' because that daring attitude is so popular with kids nowadays," says another boy.
After a few more such interpretations, the teacher wraps up. "So sometimes commercials can use people's feelings— like defiance— to link to their products. For your critical viewing project tonight at home, I'd like you to look for a commercial that uses bravado — especially kids defying adults. If you find one, be prepared to describe it to us tomorrow."
Then, he switches gears to "Flowers for Algernon," the short story they're reading, and notes Charly's growing defiance towards his new friends. The whole media literacy enterprise, clearly a regular part of this middle school English classroom routine, has taken about 10 minutes.
Media Literacy in K-12 Education
More and more educators are beginning to help students acquire the skills they need to manage in a media-saturated environment, recognizing that in its broadest sense, literacy must include the ability to skillfully "read" and "write" in a wide range of message forms. Leaders in the media literacy movement define media literacy as "the ability to access, analyze, evaluate and produce communication in a variety of forms." It includes reading and writing, speaking and listening, critical viewing, and the ability to create messages using a wide range of technologies, including cameras and computers. Media literacy is not a new subject area and it is not just about television; it is literacy for the information age.
Some educators see media literacy as a tool to build links between the classroom and the culture, so that students will see how themes and issues resonate in popular culture as they do in the study of literature, history or social studies. Some see it as a citizenship survival skill, necessary to be a thoughtful consumer and an effective citizen in a media-driven age. Some see it as a kind of protection for children against the dangers of the excesses of television, and as an antidote to manipulation and propaganda.
Others see media literacy as a new kind of English education, helping students appreciate and analyze ads, sitcoms and films with the same tools used to study poetry, short story and the novel. Still others see it as a way to give children the opportunity to tell their own stories and better understand the power of those who shape the stories of our culture and our times.
But there are other visions of media literacy, narrower and more problematic. Some see it as an option for underachieving students whose interest can be piqued by TV and nothing else. Some see it as a kind of vocational education, where kids can learn to "make" TV. Some see it as a chance to play with sophisticated electronic tools, like character generators, video toasters and wave-form monitors. Some think media literacy is just about making "good choices" about what to watch or read. And many simply think the curriculum is already too crowded and teachers already too overburdened to make room for media literacy.
Media Production and Media Analysis
Student generated production is becoming more and more a part of American schools, particularly at the secondary level. High school students make their own music videos, create commercials for their own school plays, make satirical "Saturday Night Live" skits, deliver critiques of the new principal on their computers, and hand in class assignments (and college entrance essays) on video. And, of course, student production in journalism and the performing arts has long been an important part of secondary education.
In a culture which values technology as the mark of progress and the completion of professional quality media programs as a sign of success, "doing stuff" with computers and video is sometimes touted as cutting-edge education. However, student-based media production activities do not necessarily build media literacy skills. Sometimes, adult preoccupation with media technology and ego investment in media messages interferes with a child's actual engagement in the complex process of learning to create meaningful messages.
It's not surprising that in an educational environment which often values product over process, media production classes (in both print and video) become playgrounds for creative grownups who make all the really important decisions about the construction of the school newspaper or class video project, then set young people on the task of finishing the scut work. Many young people who are disillusioned or cynical about student journalism programs in high school point to their inability to take real responsibility for the choice of message content in the paper. Similarly, plenty of video magazine programs are produced by students who are coerced into making promotional messages for the sports program, the foreign language program, or whatever programs the grownups approve.
Of course, such practices occur because to truly empower children and youth with the ability to design the content and form of their own messages would entail tremendous risk. The issues which concern our teenagers today— sexuality, classism and racism, drug use, violence, the environment and the future— are topics that many educators are unprepared to bring into the classroom. Adults in the community often find the voices of young people very uncomfortable to hear and nearly impossible to respond to.
One of the biggest failures of contemporary journalism education has been in defining its mission as the cultivation of interest in the profession, focusing on developing young people's interests in media careers. Journalism educators must begin to carve out a larger and more productive goal, one that reaches all our children: helping young people develop the citizenship skills to be effective, skillful and critical news readers and viewers. Such skills are essential for full participation in a democratic society. When newspapers are used in American classrooms, too often they are used for vocabulary practice and reading comprehension, and not to strengthen students' critical understanding of newsgathering practices or their reasoning or analytic skills.
Media literacy advocates explicitly aim to link the skills of analysis with student production activities. But what exactly are these skills? And what kinds of media analysis are most appropriate for children of different ages? Most media literacy programs stress the following key concepts:
1. Messages are constructed. The construction process is invisible to newspaper readers or television viewers. Awareness of the choices involved in the making of media messages sensitizes readers and viewers to the subtle shaping forces at work— in the choice of photo or caption in a newspaper, in the images, pacing and editing of a TV news program. Noticing the construction of a message helps one become a more critical, questioning reader and viewer— but this kind of noticing doesn't come naturally to the process of reading or watching TV. It is a learned behavior.
2. Messages are representations of the world. The reason media messages are so powerful is that viewers and readers depend on them for their understanding of the culture. One reason children are thought to be more vulnerable to media influences is because they have less direct real-world experience to compare with the representations provided by mass media. Are police officers really like the guys on "Cops?" Are high school students really as cool as the ones on "Beverly Hills 90210?" Is our community really as dangerous and violent as it appears from reading the newspaper's Metro section? Understanding how media messages shape our visions of the world and our sense of our selves is a central concept in media literacy.
3. Messages have economic and political purposes and contexts. Understanding that mass media industries sell audiences to advertisers is a powerful new concept to many American adults, who are barely aware of how a newspaper can be delivered to the doorstep for 35 cents a day or how television can enter the home a no cost. Teaching this concept to young people, of course, can be sticky, for how you teach about it depends on your ideological perspective on advertising, market economics, the industrial revolution and late-20th century capitalism. Individuals employed by giant media companies might not feel comfortable with the idea of high school teachers and students analyzing their ownership patterns and acquisitions, looking critically at their annual reports and reading their trade magazines. However, any meaningful critical discourse about media messages must include a careful and systematic examination of the economic and political contexts in which films, TV shows, newspapers and news programs are produced.
4. Individuals create meaning in media messages through interpretation. When family sits down to watch a TV program together, the meanings individual family members make of the program will differ, and they can be radically different. For example, in one English class, a 10th grade student submitted an essay on the World Wrestling Federation show, analyzing the powerful symbols of good and evil embedded in the setting, costume and music of the program, interpreting the typical impotence of the referee as a defense of vigilante justice, and describing his own comfort in knowing the good guy will always win. After reading this young viewer's thoughtful, creative work, who can say that WWF is trash television? While not being completely relativistic, media literacy advocates often refuse to line up with those who have a more traditional perspective on children's TV, those who are very comfortable intoning the merits of PBS and the evils of popular, mass audience fare, championing the "good" shows and decrying the "bad" ones. It may not be so important what you watch, media literacy advocates say, but how you watch it.
For years, many educators (and parents, too) have stood like ostriches, sticking their necks in the sand and trying very hard to ignore media culture. Television became the enemy of the fine arts, culture, history and all that is best about civilization. The reasoning went like this: if we ignore it, our children will ignore it.
Now that our culture is almost totally transformed by the compelling electronic and visual experiences that appear on our screens each day, the ostrich stance seems more and more ridiculous. It's time to face up to the media culture we have created and consumed. It's time to help ourselves and our children to embrace and celebrate the messages worth treasuring, to analyze and understand the economic and political forces which sustain it, and to develop the skills and new habits we need to think carefully and wisely about the messages we create ourselves and the abundant messages we receive .

The Big Five
Here are five key questions to help students understand and interpret media, from the Center for Media Literacy:
1. Who created this message?
2. What creative techniques are used to attract my attention?
3. How might different people understand this message differently?
4. What values, lifestyles and points of view are represented in, or omitted from, this message?
5. Why is this message being sent?

The X Factor's Louis Walsh picks his Six Chair Challenge Groups to take to Judges' Houses
Sam, Skarl3t, Four Of Diamonds, The Brooks, Ottavio and Bradley, plus, Tom and Laura have to impress him all over again
THE X Factor's Louis Walsh has chosen his Six Chair Challenge Groups to take to her Judges' House to fight for their place in the live shows.
Sam, Skarl3t, Four Of Diamonds, The Brooks, Ottavio and Bradley, plus, Tom and Laura all made it through and will be jetting off to Ibiza.
But they won't have time to fit in any clubbing in the infamous party resort as they must now work hard to impress the music manager again as they perform for him, plus, 2015 X Factor runner-up Fleur East and Britain's Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon, who will help Louis chose his three finalists.
Tonight saw the 11 Groups left in the competition after last week's Bootcamp, take to the stage at the SSE Arena, Wembley in London.
And inevitably, five were left devastated as they were replaced on their chairs by the final six.
Indecisive Lou-Lou did himself no favours by awarding a seat to everyone at first which later led to a major headache.
Kicking off proceedings were Irish boyband Everyday Solution who cinched it with their rendition of Oasis' Stop Crying Your Heart Out.
Next to land a seat were 17-year-old twins Kyle and Josh aka The Brooks.
The Cardiff duo nabbed a place after delivering their take on Queen's Who Wants To Live Forever.
Despite initially earning a place with their own rendition of Queen's Who Wants To Live Forever, Kay Leigh And Stefan were replaced by Liverpool duo Tom and Laura.
Louis was impressed by their delivery of Candi's Young Hearts Run Free.
It was a 'yes' to 4 Of Diamonds who Louis hailed as "solid" after they hit it out of the ballpark with Jamelia's Stop.
Although he had earlier raved about Ottavio and Bradley, even they were not safe as he opted to replace them with boyband Yes Lad.
The boybands appeared to be on a role with No Getaway claiming the place of Everyday Solution after wowing with Ariana Grande's One Last Time.
It was at this point that the other judges felt it necessary to have word in Louis' ear and suggest that his category wasn't diverse enough.
Taking their comments on-board, not only did he decide to bring back Ottavio and Bradley and bump off Yes Lad.
That wasn't the only u-turn Louis made on the night.
Although originally a 'no' to Girl Next Door who bombed with him after performing One Direction's Drag Me Down, he later invited them back on stage where they were given No Getaway's seat.
If that wasn't enough drama for viewers, urban girlband Skarl3t threw a further spanner in the works by blowing the mind of everyone with their gutsy take on Jessie J's Bang Bang.
Louis found himself in a dilemma lamenting that he couldn't have three girlbands.
With a heavy heart he made the decision to dash the hopes and dreams of Girl Next Door yet again and gave Skarl3t their place.
The X Factor continues next Saturday at 7pm on ITV1.

Neutron The neutron is a subatomic hadron particle that has the symbol n or n0. Neutrons have no net electric charge and a mass slightly larger than that of a proton.

When it's time to have your floors redone in your home, you'll have a lot of options to choose from. While each flooring type has its own unique benefits, in most cases you'll want to choose one that is easy to clean and versatile. One of the best flooring types for easy cleaning, low-cost installation, and long-term use is vinyl floors. Vinyl floors are a popular flooring option for both commercial and residential settings.
Vinyl floors will help you have versatile and durable flooring for a low cost. Not to mention vinyl floors come with so many design, style, and colour options, that you're bound to find a vinyl style that suits your needs. To learn more, here are the top five benefits of choosing vinyl floors for your home.
When you're looking for a flooring replacement, affordability is often a key factor. You'll want to choose a flooring option that falls within your budget. Vinyl floors are incredibly affordable, among other things. Vinyl wood flooring can give you the great look of wood flooring or any one of many other options to choose from, all while staying affordable.
Vinyl floors are easy to install, so you can save there. You won't need to pay high fees for installation if you go professional, or you can take the DIY route since vinyl floors are so easy to work with and install.
Easy to Clean & Maintain
One of the reasons that vinyl is so popular can be attributed to how easy vinyl is to clean and maintain. Vinyl is extremely resilient, but it does matter how the vinyl is installed and placed. The layout matters, because a good, tight fit will keep your floors looking good for years to come.
The floor is durable so it will last under a lot of wear and tear. Not to mention that vinyl floors are incredibly comfortable, which is just another perk you can expect from vinyl floors.
Wide Range of Designs
Your options are not limited when it comes to choosing vinyl flooring to suit your needs. It comes in a wide variety of patterns, colours, and more. The colour of the vinyl you choose will need to match the rest of your home, so you'll want to keep that in mind when choosing a design.
Choose a style that will blend well and won't show dirt, especially if you have pets, children, or tend to track things into your home frequently. Neutral colours are always a good choice for simple cleaning.
Simple Installation & Teardown
Last but not least, vinyl is incredibly easy to install and uninstall. This means that when you want to change things up or make repairs or replacements, it's easy to do. Individual tiles can be taken out, so you don't have to pay for a total overhaul. This makes replacements and repairs both cheaper and easier.

LG is seeking volunteers for the LG V30 National Experience Team, which will get to try out the upcoming flagship before the retail launch. In total, 500 people from South Korea will be selected between August 22 and 28. Thats more than double the number of testers chosen for the LG G6.
Youll need to visit this site - www.v30-try.co.kr - to answer a questionnaire and enter your social networking account. Keep in mind that 200,000 people tried out for the LG G6 team and only 210 were selected.
Still, if you do get on the team, youll be asked to perform various missions and post the results on social media. Its too late to do beta testing on the LG V30, this is simply to drum up publicity.

You got the pre-approval you wanted to buy a home. The relief has set in and you think you can let your guard down when it comes to your finances. Unfortunately, that's the biggest mistake you can make. This is the time that you must stay vigilant about your finances. Making even one small mistake can make you lose your pre-approval.
Get Matched with a Lender, Click Here.
This list will help you understand the mistakes to avoid.
Changing Jobs
Your lender likely verified your income and employment before providing you with a pre-approval. This is a large part of your approval as it's how you can afford the mortgage payment. If you change jobs before you close on the loan, the lender will have to start all over again.
New employment may mean that you have to wait 6 – 24 months before you can get a loan approval. Lenders like to see consistency and reliability in your employment. Changing jobs offers neither of those things. The lender will need to wait and see if you stay at this job and monitor your income patterns over a series of months or even years before you can get a mortgage.
Apply for New Credit
Just because your mortgage lender pulled your credit already, it doesn't mean they won't pull it again. Most lenders pull a borrower's credit two times – once at the pre-approval stage and again right before you close on your loan.
If you applied for new credit in the meantime, the lender will know about it. If you obtained the new credit line and it's reporting on your credit report, your lender will see the new trade line. This will throw up a red flag. The lender will have to include that payment in your debt ratio. If the DTI is too high, it could cause you to lose your approval.
If you didn't get the credit line or the creditor didn't report it to the credit bureaus yet, it will show up as an inquiry on your credit report. Lenders will ask about any inquiries and require proof that you didn't open another trade line since your pre-approval. If you have a new trade line, you may have the DTI trouble as discussed above.
Charge Up Your Credit Cards
You should also avoid using the credit cards you already have. If you always use them for everyday purchases and pay them off, that's one thing. If it's habits you already had prior to obtaining the pre-approval, it won't be a cause for concern for the lender.
Click to See the Latest Mortgage Rates.
If, however, you decide to rack up your credit cards with large purchases for furniture or appliances, the lender will balk at it. This will raise your monthly obligations, as you'll have a higher minimum payment due on your credit cards. The lender will have to recalculate your debt ratio to make sure that you still meet the guidelines for the loan.
Depleting Your Savings Account
Even spending your cash can make you lose your pre-approval. Chances are that when you applied for the loan, you told the lender you were going to make a specific down payment. The lender may have even verified those assets already. If you deplete that account, you won't' have the money necessary for the down payment and/or closing costs. This could leave you without your loan approval.
Ruining Your Credit
Aside from racking up your credit or even applying for new credit, you can ruin your credit in other ways. One of the largest ways is by paying your bills late. If you pay a bill more than 30 days late, it gets reported to the credit bureaus. This will then alert the lender that you can't handle your financial obligations and it could cause you to lose your pre-approval.
Not Tracking Deposits
If you deposit any money into the account that you verified with your lender, you will need to have proof of their origination. If the money is from your employment, it's easy enough to prove with your paystubs. Any other types of deposits, though, must be verified.
The easiest way to handle this is to keep the proof of where the money came from. For example, did you sell an asset or stocks? You should have a bill of sale or another type of proof of the sale. Keep that proof as well as the canceled check. As long as the amounts match to the penny, the lender will be able to verify the deposit. This means you have the deposit the entire check at once. Don't make the mistake of depositing part of the check and taking the rest out in cash. If you need the cash, you can make a withdrawal after you deposit the entire amount so that you have proper proof for the lender.
These simple habits can make you lose your pre-approval quickly. The best thing you can do is freeze your finances, as they are when you get the pre-approval. This way when the lender verifies all of your information a second time around, nothing will have changed. If you do have anything change, be upfront with the lender right away. The more honest you are with your lender, the better your chances of keeping your pre-approval to buy your home.

Two storage vendors this week released studies about storage that not only give MSPs results to chew on, but also offer them solid direction.
First up is TwinStrata (News - Alert), Inc., which just released its 2013 Cloud Storage Adoption Survey.
The top level finding is that IT is having increasing difficulty keeping up with storage demands, something we don't need a survey to tell us.
"Unfortunately, according to Gartner (News - Alert), storage capacity demands are growing 40-60 percent each year, significantly outpacing density growth. As a result, most organizations quickly face capacity demands that outstrip their ability to support that storage on-premises," the report said. "For the majority of our survey respondents, that reality is already here – three out of every five respondents either agreed or strongly agreed with the statement, "It seems like we are always running out of storage."
But MSPs can come to the rescue with cloud solutions that are elastic and therefore scalable. And this table has already been largely set as "more than a third (37 percent) of respondents indicate that they have been using cloud computing for three or more years - an increase of more than a third over last year," TwinStrata reported.
The cloud is not the most highly used of the cloud services out there, but the adoption rate is expected to go sky high. As of today, 46 percent of respondents are using cloud storage today, but a full 84 percent have plans to do so. And here, scalability is the biggest driver.
The lesson for MSPs? Leverage the need to scale and the interest in cloud storage to start pushing fully managed offerings now.
NTP Weighs in
Precisely the same day that TwinStrata announced its findings, NTP Software came out with a study of its own. Here, NTP focused more on what is actually stored. While TwinStrata found that IT can't keep up with the data explosion, NTP finds that much of what IT is killing itself to save is junk. "A recent storage assessment survey conducted by NTP Software revealed that 61.6 percent of file data stored on primary storage systems had not been accessed in more than six months, leading to inefficient storage use, ongoing cost expenditures and potential compliance issues," as stated in the report done for NTP by File Data Management.
Rather than asking a bunch of IT pros a ton of questions, NTP went right to the heart of the matter. "NTP's storage assessment scanned nearly half a billion files totaling more than 300TB of customers' data across a variety of storage environments. Among the information collected during the assessment was data growth over the past five years, last file access dates, consumption by file type and size, duplicate files, monthly activity, empty and corrupt files and directories, and security anomalism," the vendor explained.
So what did all this sleuthing reveal? "It's staggering to see just how many stale, duplicate and empty files are being kept on expensive primary storage by organizations of every size across a variety of industries," said Bruce Backa, CEO of NTP Software. "Files that have not been accessed in 6 months or more are prime archiving candidates. Performing an assessment like this can help companies gain insight into understanding details across their entire storage environment – from storage composition to usage trends; the amount of duplicate, abandoned or temporary files are consuming network resources; and potential problems that otherwise might be unknown."
Here are some specifics on what NTP found:
The answer, NTP believes, is storage tiering, which of course it offers, arguing that an IT shop can save some 67 percent by archiving.
This is likely true, but good storage management also cleanses old, useless and duplicate data just like throwing away that pants that no longer fit or that four-inch wide tie that only a circus clown would wear.
The lesson for MSPs? Certainly pitch tiered solutions that archive old data on less expensive media, especially the cloud. At the same time go deep, and offer true data management so all this data is put into rational order.
TwinStrata's Cloud Play
MSP Today in May covered TwinStrata's latest cloud storage a gambit, offering cloud protection for VMware environments in the form of CloudArray Disaster Recovery as a Service (CloudArray DRaaS).
This is actually a new piece to CloudArray "that delivers seamless disaster recovery (DR) for VMware users on-demand without requiring continuous investment in secondary infrastructure or sites," the company said.
Meanwhile check out these TMC (News - Alert) TwinStrata videos:
And last year at Cloud Expo, TMC talked to TwinStrata about its cloud approach.

I need to let you know up front that this is a MAJOR SPOILER REVIEW, because it really is impossible to talk about this film without divulging in this films many surprises. Especially the ending, which I found incredibly telling. So if you haven't seen Side Effects yet, go see it. If you need a reason to check it out, my nutshell analysis is: It's terrific. YES GO SEE IT. It's awesome.
So after you've seen it, come back here and we can talk about it!
Okay…so you've seen the film? Good. Here's the interesting thing about this movie. Most people have labled this movie as a drama, crime thriller, suspense movie, etc. But if there were really one genre I think would be most appropriate for this film, it's Satire. By satire, I don't mean the film is a comedy, but it's the irony of everything the film builds up to and where it inevitably ends up, and finally the deeper more telling message underneath it all that strikes at the truth. When you watch the film, the plot gets more and more silly and ludicrous as the film goes on, and yet it's taken completely seriously. The psychiatrist Jonathan Banks (Jude Law) starts going manic crazy when he has reason to believe his patient Emily (Rooney Mara) has been faking depression as a cover for murdering her husband, disguising it as a sleepwalking side effect of a "brand new anti-depressant medication. The big revelation we find out in the film is that Emily and her husband we're once wealthy but when he is arrested (I forget what for, I think it was fraud), she goes to see psychiatrist Dr. Victoria Siebert (Catherine Zeta Jones). Doctor and psychiatrist fall in love, and the two of them plot a scam to make millions in scamming the psychiatric drug company, as well as using Emily's "depression/mental illness" as a cover for murdering her husband. Siebert becomes Emily's mentor, training her how to act the part of a depressed patient, telling her exactly what she needs to do to pull of a performance in the eyes of Dr. Banks, the District Attorney's, and everyone else. When Dr. Banks' career starts going down the toilet after the media finds out he prescribed her a drug that led Emily to kill her husband, he starts picking up clues that Emily may have been faking the whole time. And he's driven to save his reputation and put his life back together again. When Dr. Banks brings his theories to his wife and the District Attorney, they all think he's going crazy. It's more like mania, but his suspicions eventually lead him to the truth.
The film itself starts out with a heavy serious film, leading us to believe its about a girl struggling with depression. But the more the film started to unravel, after awhile I was laughing several times at the sheer silliness of it all. The movie does a great job keeping you on the edge and getting you to take the story seriously. And it does play itself as a great mystery thriller. But there is an additional layer of subtext I saw with this film regarding mental patients that I'm not sure anyone has really caught on to, or if they are seeing the same thing I did with this film.
In America, there is an almost innate denial of the problems of mental illness in the country. If you look at the mass shooting at the Batman screening back in July 2012, almost everyone wanted to believe that the man who committed the murder was completely sane at the time. The idea being he was just putting on an act of mental illness to break the system and get away with it. The clues of course being that he was incredibly smart, studying as a physics major, and it's as if killing all those people was part of some bigger plot. Which, if you think about it, sounds just like the plot for a Hollywood movie. It's funny because anytime a horrific murder happens, if the gunman is a murder/suicide, everyone wants to blame everything else, whether its violent movies, violent video games, etc. No one wants to stop and look at the actual person who committed the crime, where they came from, and what might have happened that lead them to commit murder. But the answer for many is to label the victim as evil, have him put on death row, and just be rid of the problem as if it will make all the problems go away. For many Mental illness is thought of as a scapegoat for people's behavior, even for something as extreme as getting away with murder.
So what Soderbergh has done with Side Effects has given the audience exactly what they want to see: A mentally ill patient who is actually faking it. Emily was secretly doing it to scam the pharmaceutical companies and come away rich again with her secret lesbian lover psychiatrist. And then showing Jude Law's as the manic psychiatrist going bat-shit crazy trying to convince everyone she's faking it. The whole thing comes down to a fictionalized, what-if scenario, while at the same time poking a subtle satirical jab at the audience at just how silly and ridiculous the whole thing is. There are several moments of imagery that are telling, like the cliche psychiatristfalling in love with their patient scenario. The cliche's are deliberate and intentional, in fabricating a really silly story that manages to get the audience to take it seriously. But what I also thought was terrific was the ending, where Dr. Banks winds up using his power of law as a psychiatrist to get back at her, making her go on traquelizers, and when she refuses and tries to run off, she's institutionalized. One of my favorite, hilariously awesome scenes in the film is where Dr. Banks is on to her and recommends putting her through electro-shock therapy for her depression, and the kind of stunned look in Emily's eyes as to what she's just gotten herself into.
It's not that Emily didn't get what was coming to her at the end of the film, because she did. But in stepping back and looking at the big picture, it's the image of a psychiatrist having institutionalized a sane person. If you want to call a person who plots to murder her husband sane. We get that last great shot of Emily trapped in a psychiatric institute looking out the window, as we pan over the city watching congested traffic on the highway. It's just so brilliant and horribly ironic.
There is also something to be said about the fact that Dr. Banks is a foreigner from the UK. It was a wise choice to make his character this way, because I think if Dr. Banks had been American, the satire would have been a little more obvious. But having him be a foreigner is like getting an outside perspective on the state of mental illness in America. I was with my dad, and we laughed quite a few times at some of the ironies of the film, but what was surprising was that there was no laughing or smiling from anyone in our audience. Which in itself was fun considering they were actually taking the story seriously! I was hoping after awhile that somebody would get the joke. I am wondering if there really were others out there who saw the same satirical edge I saw with this film. But to me its what makes the film so brilliant.
When I say the film is silly and satirical however, I mean its a good kind of silly. This is a film that has arrived exactly at the right moment during our current time. It's not only the kind of film about mental illness that people can have fun with, by giving the audience exactly what they want to see, but I also think it lets everyone vent their frustrations a little bit. It does exactly what a great satire does, which is never pandering to a certain group, but tries to speak to everyone on the same level. There are several layers to digest with this story, about psychiatrists, patients, pharmaceutical companies, and just in general the messy state of laws and protocol regarding mentally ill patients. This is a really great terrific film, and in my opinion, the best film of 2013 so far.

1. Lots of fun this past week. I LOVE summer time and all that comes with it. SUN, FUN, FRIENDS and FAMILY!!!
2. Had a great night at the baseball game on Tuesday night. The M's almost made a come back, but couldn't do it in the end. Loved spending time with our good friends.
3. 4th of July started with a great breakfast at church. Love the breakfast tradition. All the kids slept in so only Owen and I headed over to eat.
4. We went to the fireworks at Sammamish City Hall. Loved them and we got amazing seats! It has been a long time since my neck hurt because we were looking straight up as the fireworks exploded right over our heads.
5. Lindsay took an amazing picture on the 4th! Love it!
6. Golfing was great on Thursday. I love to watch the improvement in Brett as we hit on the driving range and hoping to get out and play a round with Becky to see how much she has improved.
7. Friday Owen and Becky headed up on the Victoria Clipper to spend the day in Victoria, BC. They had lots of fun. What a great daddy daughter date.
8. Heather and Co. were here on Friday and Saturday. My kids LOVEd spending time. I loved spending time. There were many Lego Rock Band songs played. We took them to our favorite Hamburger/Onion Ring/Shake Spot. After we got home, Brett was so sad that Jackson and Carter were gone. We loved having them here for a visit.
9. Owen is at his favorite conference of the year – WPC. He gets to see all his MSFT friends and partners. It like a yearly reunion for him. So glad this year they are having it in Toronto rather than in LA or New Orleans or Atlanta. Way to hot in those places right now.
10. LOVING the sun and summer weather we are getting here. Arms are getting tan. Sun glasses are out. Walks to the store are happening often. Going to the lake to cool off. I love it that it stays light until 10pm although getting to sleep last night early was so nice.

Chris broke the silence: Both our tongues touching, we broke away, neither of us knowing what to say. As I lay there I thought of my kiss with Chris. I told him what had happened, he put his arm around me and hugged me tight. Geniuses in our midst! Paul was asleep and so I quietly got into bed and fell asleep. Of course at first he denied it, but eventually he confessed and told me everything in detail.

On Wednesday, I wrapped up my attendance at this year's annual MHI conference. I have to say, it was one of the most energetic MHI conferences I've attended in recent years. A lot of that had to do, I think, with the genuine interest in how technology is changing in our space, and how it may impact the industry going forward. There are a number of new tools out there, from digital like predictive analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence to robotics.
But with that interest and excitement there's a recognition that we're at a certain tipping point. A lot of the tools are being developed by individuals with skills and expertise in their field but limited experience in materials handling and the broader supply chain applications. On the other side of the equation, experienced industry hands who are tasked with getting more orders out the door faster and at a lower cost than ever may not entirely understand these new technologies and are trying to figure out if, where and how they might be applied to their operations. And everyone is trying to figure out how to make them pay for themselves when compared to a traditional model – say predictive analytics compared to preventative maintenance or introducing robots to the picking process versus a 3 level pick module or pick-to-cart. The result, in some instances, is perpetual pilot purgatory. Yes, some forward thinking end users are kicking the tires and investing in pilots, and more pilots, and more pilots – and even going live with small-scale rollouts – but we haven't learned enough yet to move the technologies forward at scale. For many end users, the question is even more basic: Where do I go to learn more or see a system in action so I can decide whether I even want to do a pilot?
That was apparent in a conversation I had with Jack Gillespie and Danny Kent from Mechaspin. It's an Orlando-based engineering company that has done work for the Department of Defense, including the development for the Navy of a Lidar-based anti-collision technology that prevents big ships from colliding; they'd like to adapt that technology to lift trucks.
It was also one piece of a spirited robotics summit on Wednesday morning that drew more attendees than the organizers expected, perhaps underscoring the interest in robotics in our space. The primary purpose of the two-plus hour meeting was to decide whether to create a new group around piece-picking and mobile robotics within MHI. I think the unanimous verdict was to move forward. But an important part of the discussion involving robotics solutions providers, two executives from DHL and Target and a variety of consultants and systems integrators is that right now there's too much hype and marketing around robotics in our space (mea culpa, perhaps) and not enough real-life examples and data around what works and more importantly, what doesn't work. We're all trying to answer those questions, and the brave customers who have been early adopters are playing it close to the vest.
The result: Perpetual pilot purgatory.
There is one solution that can help emerging technologies with promise move forward: Being open and sharing results. And, as several experienced hands at the summit pointed out, there is a precedent: When GM decided to adopt robotics, it published its results and encouraged its suppliers to adopt the technology. The idea was that sharing would move the technology forward faster and GM would still benefit.
People like me and my colleagues in the materials handling media can play a role, but we're always going to get a sanitized view since companies, especially publicly-traded companies, are reluctant to share their struggles with a new technology. But there needs to be a forum for sharing what works, what doesn't work and how to get there – perhaps through academia; perhaps through presentations in a safe space like the new robotics industry group; perhaps through research from analyst firms that cover our space; perhaps through publications like ours and those of our competitors. I do believe if early adopters are more willing to share their experiences we'll advance the technologies further, faster.

Culture Smart Travel Guidebooks
As well as just generally making you a considerate, decent traveller, understanding local life means you'll be able to engage more with the people. Guidebooks are great; but many tend to focus more on what to do and where to go. Which is where the Culture Smart guidebook series stands out as something different.
When I visit somewhere new, I'm keen to lap up what makes locals tick; to learn the country's history, anthropology and culture. The internet is, of course, a great source, but sometimes it just helps to have a handy resource in your day bag to dig into. Plus, the handbag sized book makes for great plane reading on your way out!
After visiting Morocco twice, I thought it'd be a great book to check out in line with my experiences in the country; there are over 100 countries to choose from in the series though.
*gifted product*
All the Culture Smart guidebooks are written by long-term expats, journalists, professors and local professionals, so you know you're getting some good quality advice from people who've experienced day-to-day life in the country. It goes into depth about local customs and culture, while still being easy to read, split into concise sections and digestible chunks. You might not find every section and paragraph relevant to your individual trip, but the format makes it easy to find information that you need.
The 'Key Facts' section at the beginning is a great crash course in the basics of the country you're visiting, with the basic useful info including currency, country dialing code and climate. Afterwards, you'll find some nice chunky sections about Land and People, Values and Attidues, and Beliefs, Traditions and Customs. If you're the kind of person who always likes to know the background of the place you're visiting, this is a really great guide.
A part that was super helpful for me was the section on food and drink. Different from other guidebooks in that it doesn't throw out recommendations; instead, the Culture Smart guidebook is all about eating customs and key dishes. If you're not sure what to order on a menu, this section's great for translating menus and working out some local 'must-try's.
Business travellers will also appreciate a dedicated section for those travelling for work, where you'll find information on meeting etiquette, negotiation and business communication.
Having visited Morocco twice before this book made its way into my hands; there was a lot that I'd been quite confused by, and found to be quite contradictory from information on the internet. If I'd had this before I went, I definitely would have felt more comfortable with some of the situations I found myself in.
Basically, to sum up, if you're off on your travels any time soon and want to get an idea of local culture and customs, these books are pretty brilliant.

This is a new endeavor for me, I have decided to write a blog on what I am thinking about at the moment! Most folks do not know Swan Lake, New York. This is a photo of the lake, very gorgeous quiet lake, 220 acres of water, and few homes around it. There are a handful of homes with motor boat rights and this listing has deeded motor boat rights. .What is amusing to me is that an artist named Heniggar, who painted portraits of Einstein Picasso, and other knowns also painted a scene of Swan Lake in the fall which I saw at a gallery in New York. ! There are some beautiful five acre waterfront lots up for sale on Swan Lake for 195.000 and up. The best deal on the lake are 21 lots , divided, approved with underground electric. Survey and maps are available and all of this for 1,100.000..There are some great deals out here on a relatively quiet lake, full of surprises and fabulous fishing! Denny Pratt
What is on Denny's MIND? Swan Lake and available properties.

High quality exhaust wrap can withstand a temperature of 800 degrees C, temporarily up to 1000 degrees C. It is manufactured in Austria by a company specialising in the manufacture of heat shields, much better than the Chinese wraps "up to 1200 degrees". It is used for wrapping the manifold and other exhaust system components. It significantly reduces the temperature under the hood. When it is used in turbocharged cars it will also slightly reduce the "lag" by increasing the energy of the fumes.

Your Prenatal Diet: Eliminate Those Pesticides
You may not think of it like this, but you're feeding your baby something from the moment of conception. There are indications that those early months are some of the most critical when it comes to good nutrition with a minimum of toxins. To get the vitamins and minerals you need, you'll want to eat a good selection of fresh vegetables and fruits. However, you sure don't want to be filling your system, and your baby's, with unwanted pesticide residues.
The effects of pesticides on the health of a young child are not fully known at this time, but the brain of the developing child is probably at risk. It certainly seems prudent to reduce the amount our children are exposed to. One way is by using organic fruits and veggies.
Organic produce is getting easier to find in regular supermarkets as the demand and production increases. Still, it's often two or three times as expensive, and the choices are likely to be limited. One way to bring organic into the reach of your budget is to take up organic gardening. Even just a few cherry tomato plants can make a big difference in the overall amount of toxins you ingest.
It might be impossible to buy all organic fruits and vegetables. If you can't, try to go organic for at least those fruits and veggies that tend to be loaded with pesticides. The top offenders among fruits are peaches, apples, strawberries, nectarines, cherries, pears, and imported grapes.
Among veggies, watch out for bell peppers, celery, spinach, lettuce, and potatoes. The twelve foods just mentioned are called by some the "Dirty Dozen." Buying these foods as organics can eliminate the bulk of pesticides from your diet. The next most contaminated vegetables after the top dozen are carrots. Since we tend to use carrots frequently, you might want to opt for organic ones, especially if you use them in juicing.
Safest selections among non-organic produce include onions, frozen corn and peas, broccoli, cabbage, kiwis, bananas and pineapple. (Data was determined by the Environmental Working Group, a non-profit agency.)
What about washing produce to remove pesticides? Washing helps to remove substances like bacteria, but don't trust washing and peeling to get rid of the pesticides. Studies have shown that the residues work their way into the very cells of the fruit or vegetable.
Don't forget about your non-diet exposure to pesticides. Use simple natural insect repellents in your home. If you have a serious insect infestation, there are bait-type insecticides that are much safer to use than sprays that go everywhere. And just forget about those bombs. They leave residue on everything in your house

How tax preparation firms can benefit from a capture solution
With tax season in full swing, millions of Americans are scrambling to make sure they have all of their important documents ready to hand over to their accountants. From W-2s and 1099s to business expense and charitable donation deductions, everyone has a plethora of documentation to provide in order to properly file their taxes and get the best discounts possible. That can add up to an abundance of information attached to just one person for one tax year.Read More
