All three agencies pitched the business last week with presentations that offered to create new shops dedicated to Sony, primarily to erect firewalls between conflicting accounts.
"It's a good model for the future," said one of the participants, who requested anonymity. "When the dust settles, it's really the best way to handle these mega-assignments."
The U.S. portion is part of a larger global consolidation said to be worth an estimated $1 billion in billings. A decision on the U.S. portion is expected this month.
Creating stand-alone agencies dedicated to specific companies is a common practice in the automotive industry. In November 2000, Omnicom created Pentamark Worldwide to accommodate the $2.4 billion DaimlerChrysler account. WPP Group has had Ford Motor Media since 1997. And Starcom MediaVest last year created General Motors Planworks to handle its win of General Motors Corp. planning business. Interpublic previously established General Motors Mediaworks for media buying.
Such a structure is one way to attempt to resolve the issue of account conflicts. Omnicom, in its bid to win over PepsiCo and its newly acquired Quaker Oats Co. business, agreed to create a separate agency affiliated with DDB Worldwide.
In Universal McCann's situation, a dedicated agency would keep its Microsoft Xbox account away from Sony's PlayStation. Omnicom's PhD also has issues; the agency's immediate sibling, OMD, handles media buying for Universal Pictures and MGM Films.
Starcom MediaVest last week was juggling two reviews, both of which involved media buying for a movie division, Sony and the $500 million Walt Disney Co. account. Had it won both, it would have been necessary for Starcom MediaVest to keep the two accounts at separate agencies.
Unlike meetings held in July, in which the then-five finalists found themselves face to face with Sony's global executives, the encounters last week were with U.S. executives from Sony Computer Entertainment America, Sony Electronics, Sony Music and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
According to participants, the discussions centered on how to organize the Sony media business at the agencies.
Perhaps the most unusual participant at the table was Omnicom's Arnell Group. A small branding and design shop recently acquired by the holding company, Arnell has worked closely with PhD to bring alternative media strategies to the pitch, said an executive close to the review. The agency is no stranger to Sony. Arnell worked with Sony Pictures on "Men in Black," doing a product-placement deal for his client Ray Ban, and on "Stuart Little," again working a product placement deal for client Parmalat.

Book Description
The JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) has been one of the most popular tools for Java developers to create modular, cloud-ready, and modern applications. It has achieved a reputation for architectural excellence and technical savvy, making it a solid and efficient environment for delivering your applications.
The book will first introduce application server configuration and the management instruments that can be used to control the application server. Next, the focus will shift to enterprise solutions such as clustering, load balancing, and data caching; this will be the core of the book. We will also discuss services provided by the application server, such as database connectivity and logging. We focus on real-world example configurations and how to avoid common mistakes. Finally, we will implement the knowledge gained so far in terms of Docker containers and cloud availability using RedHat's OpenShift.

On the way to Hollywood Jim saw a man with a herd of cows. After Jim was in Hollywood a man with a limousine had Maxi?s name on a piece of paper. He took Maxi and Jim to the places where they made a commercial.
My favorite part is when Maxi became a star. Even if you are a dog you can be famous . When Jim came back he saw Maxi on tv. I like the pictures because when they went to Yellowstone Park they saw a cat and a tornado then they had a party. I think the book is unique because they are talking about dogs.
I recommend this book to someone who has dogs. If your dog becomes famous you can read this book.

Why Red Is The Colour of Passion... And Fashion
Red is one of those unafraid colours whose strength I admire. It is my favourite. My Collections and my evening wardrobe are more than fifty-percent red: I follow Bill Blass's mantra: "When in doubt, wear red". I am sallow and skinny and the colour red makes all the difference to the way I look on a good day. Even my favourite pair of shoes is red satin peep-toes. They lift the spirit of my dullest outfits. Red can be classy, it can be slutty and it can be somewhere in between.

The sum to all human knowledge is still 110 million articles short to be anywhere close to completion. It is a work in progress with 100K contributors who make >5 edits per month which is a good number of contributors though not enough-especially from the so called global south. These computer robots are used to run some automated tasks on articles to avoid redundant work on Wikipedia. As much as they make work easier, their judgement is nowhere close to that of the humans'. There are about 1600 bots which do quite a lot of work because some have more than 4 million edits on Wikipedia which is a nice job.
There is this other bunch of bots that I have been encountering everytime I create a new article. They have been nominating my articles for deletion! While citing various reasons that to me seem silly and unfounded- be it 'Notability', 'sounds like an advertisement', 'doesn't meet the GNG' and so many more. Some mis informedly post on my talk page advising me as if I just created my account, I should visit the start page for newbies. I have more than 2000 edits in all Wikimedia projects and it is because am strong hearted to the extent that I have been taking kahawa tungu (bitter coffee) with the bots for 11 months or so. If it sounds like an advertisement, then there is the COE team who can do the necessary to ensure the language is encyclopedic and I will learn from it.
Most newbies have cited these deletions as the major reason of quiting or retiring from editing the English Wikipedia. Mostly, when you start to write about a Kenyan/African story it is not notable – on the contrary – I have been working on the backlog category of articles lacking description on the template person data and from what I see some articles are on Wikipedia for all the wrong reasons according to me.But thinking on giving it a second thought, that person could be notable in Mexico as a country or whenever he hails from. While articles about the Nyayo House, Bring Zack Back Home and the List of places Moi opened are not notable.
It costs me a fortune in this part of the world to be connected on the Internet and people here do not have the willingness to invest their money doing free non-paid work. They prefer to tweet or facebook because no one will never delete the noise or party pictures they post there.
Or can we have a en.wikipedia.org.ke! where we write about our country?

Nicole Kidman's new movie Grace Of Monaco has been panned by critics after opening the Cannes Film Festival in France on Wednesday (14May14).
The actress' latest work has been criticised by Monaco's royal family and now film reviewers at Cannes are picking apart her performance as actress-turned-princess Grace Kelly.
Peter Bradshaw of Britain's Guardian serves up one of the harshest reviews of director Olivier Dahan's movie, calling it "so awe-inspiringly wooden that it is basically a fire-risk".
Of Kidman's performance, he states the Australian star spends her time "wafting around the Palace with dewy-eyed features and slightly parted lips which make her look like a grown-up Bambi after a couple of cocktails, suddenly remembering his mother's violent death in the forest."
Meanwhile, the London Telegraph has given the film one star, calling it "a fantastically silly melodrama", insisting Kidman, though "terrifically talented" cannot "convincingly express... a role built on naivety".
The Hollywood Reporter's reviewer calls the film "dull", adding, "It's a stiff, stagey, thuddingly earnest affair, which has generated far more drama off screen than on".
Prince Albert of Monaco and his sisters slammed Kidman's portrayal of their mother in a statement released last week (ends09May14), calling the film a "farce".

I had a lot of fun shopping for "Toys for Tots." Maybe a little too much fun, even though I did so-called "smart shopping."
What you see is, maybe, a tenth of the haul, all that's on-topic for our interests here.
Anyway, when I showed some of the goodies to my husband, he spotted stuffed horses among the lions and tigers and trucks.
"Building more blog readers?"
"Yeah," I said with brio worthy of Bugs Bunny. "Pushing my equestrian agenda."
Then, I added, "There's always one for whom that will mean everything."
That child – usually a she, but sometimes a he – is often on my mind because I used to be one of them. No surprise, right?
Girls have the reputation of loving horses and ponies, so much so that it's become a stereotype.
People also forget boys out there adore horses, too. Just like girls like superheroes, too, (preach it, Riley), and boys want cooking toys that aren't pink.
Many children, as the saying goes, "grow out of" horses, but I believe young people move on because their love for horses isn't nurtured by their environment, both due to lack of understanding and, well, finances.
To paraphrase Auntie Mame, life is a banquet, but you still have to pay the cashier.
The fees associated with horses, even when you keep costs down, add up over time, yet middle class people I know do it. They prioritize.
They forego vacations away, drive older cars, watch for sales of things they need and wear older clothes year after year. Others don't own a horse but take lessons themselves or send a child,. Perhaps they cut costs by just taking lessons or half-leasing a horse or by riding but not showing. Or, if they don't ride anymore, they volunteer at a rescue or a therapeutic riding stable. Maybe all they do is take in the midway pony ride attraction at a carnival or just spend a day as a spectator at a nearby equestrian event.
FWIW, I got crazy-stupid bargains on the horse toys you see above.
To someone in your life, a gift that speaks to their passion may mean everything. That someone may even be you.
Did you have a horse toy when you were a child? Or did you have a pony? (It's okay. 🙂 We might feel jealous for a moment, but it'll pass. 🙂 Do you remember who first acknowledged horses were important to you? Let us know in the comments. Thanks!
Also, there's still time to donate cash or a toy to Toys for Tots, a year-round organization.

Boys soccer preview: Freshmen phenoms fuel Falcons' fervor for fine finish
Boys soccer preview: Freshmen phenoms fuel Falcons' fervor for fine finish
They might get knocked off the ball a time or four during practice against their much more practiced, weathered veteran teammates. They might need to "toughen up" a bit against them, as coach Steve Boyd is wont to say about his up-and-coming freshmen.
But these first-year high school players are by no means new to soccer, says the coach of reigning Far East Division I and Korea Blue tournament champion Seoul American.
Thanks to youth and club programs on and off base that have had many of these non-neophytes playing soccer year-round, freshmen such as David Brown, Benjamin Nagy and Grant Fitts arrived for the first practice with plenty of talent, if not in-season battle testing.
"They have some skills and things they can contribute" to the Falcons, Boyd said. "It gives us depth. It's just a matter of how much they develop. They have raw talent; they just haven't had competition."
They'll get that starting Saturday at home, when the Falcons face Chadwick International in a non-league contest that precedes their league-opening road trip March 18 at Taejon Christian and March 19 at Daegu.
Though the Falcons – who have won two D-I championships in four years, both against Kubasaki – bid farewell to two major weapons in HoKyong Adkins and David Neaverth, plenty remain in the cupboard for another run in addition to the influx of freshmen.
Junior Andrew Nutter takes over for Adkins up front, striker Kevin McGuire returns as does midfielder Niko Russey, while Nick Gagnet, John Dunleavy and Julian Ruiz, all seniors, and junior Kevin Hwang anchor a veteran defense. Senior newcomer Chaz Perrymany plays offensive mid.
Should the freshmen provide some spark, the Falcons might pick up where they left off last season. "It makes my job a little easier, to say the least," Boyd said.
But the Falcons could face stern opposition in what promises to be a competitive D-I tournament, which this year moves from Kadena to Kubasaki.
The Dragons, who have finished second the last two years, return a veteran-laden squad with scoring firepower in seniors Imani Washington, Mike Mahlock and Will Wagner, among others.
"We're still working on settling on a goalkeeper; the rest looks solid," new Kubasaki coach Tony Washington said; he also has freshmen who have played before. "If the kids coming in can gel with the kids coming back … that's going to determine it, how good the chemistry is."
Kadena could also have some say in things, with All-Far East vets Junta Callahan and Diego Rodriguez back in the fold. But junior mid Gabe Peredo at this point is due to leave in May, before Far East. Senior Kyle Freaney returns to Kadena from RAF Lakenheath.
Meanwhile, four-time defending Division II champion Matthew C. Perry also benefits from an incoming freshman – Kai Lange, the younger son of longtime Samurai coach Mark Lange. Kai will play midfield and forward.
Though veterans such as Justin Hill and Payton Fowler have departed, the Samurai are loaded with scoring power in returners Tyson Moore – last year's D-II Golden Boot winner – plus Vincent Ermitano and Aidan Lewis. Replacing keeper Jarell Davis might be tough.
D-II runner-up and DODEA Japan champion Zama also has some replacing to do, in Pacific-leading goal-scorer Malik Wilkes (40 goals), now playing for Tokyo Verde, a Japanese club. Roman Duarte returns to anchor the middle; Jarrek Cruz transfers in from Humphreys.
Most of the rest of D-II appears to be rebuilding, with three of seven D-II teams bringing in new coaches, though Mark Constantine is returning to E.J. King's helm after one season off.
Daegu appears to be most promising out of Korea, with the addition of Guam varsity veteran Mitchel Champaco. Robert Kenny, who assisted the Warrior girls last year, takes the boys varsity helm. Junior Tim Davis is Osan's most accomplished returning scoring weapon.

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis and the archbishop of Canterbury have denounced human trafficking as a crime against human dignity and pledged both of their churches to combatting it.
Francis and Archbishop Justin Welby, spiritual leader of the 80-million-strong Anglican Communion, met in private audience Monday and then prayed together in one of the Vatican chapels.
Francis called trafficking an "intolerable crime against human dignity," while Welby said it urgently needed to end.
Despite deep opposition to the ordination of female Anglican bishops, the Vatican has sought to find areas of agreement where Catholics and Anglicans can work together. The fight against modern-day slavery is one such area, and a joint initiative involving Al-Azhar University in Cairo, the world's foremost seat of Sunni learning, has become a high-profile initiative.

The Cardinals improve to 3-0 as the defense turns in another strong effort in a 21-7 victory over Archbishop Williams on Friday night.
The story of Friday night's 21-7 win over Archbishop Williams was a familiar one for the Cardinal Spellman High football team.
The defense of the Cardinals (3-0) forced the Bishops (1-2) to turn the ball over on three of their four first-half possessions as they jumped out to a 21-0 halftime lead.
"I'm very pleased with our defense," said Cardinal Spellman coach Ron St. George. "We've played very tough team defense all year round.
"The defense is the strength of our team right now. People are having a very difficult time running the ball on us."
After the Bishops' first drive stalled at midfield, Williams lined up to punt. The snap sailed over the punter's head giving the Cardinals possession on the Williams' 25.
From there, the Cardinals ran away with the game.
On the very next play, Spellman junior Matt Anastasi (21 carries, 131 yards) broke a handoff outside for a 25-yard touchdown run to give Spellman a 6-0 lead in the first quarter.
Williams' next possession ended on a third-and-one at midfield.
Senior quarterback Anthony Rioles was strip-sacked by Spellman's Jarad Creech and Geoff Paige recovered the fumble at the Williams' 38-yard line.
Six plays later, senior Mike O'Leary ran in a 4-yard touchdown. Austin Joseph ran in the two-point try to stretch Spellman's lead to 14-0 in the second quarter.
The Cardinals drove 70 yards on their next possession. Joseph capped the drive with a 33-yard touchdown pass to Rory Donovan (one interception) down the sideline. Joe Crane's extra point made it 21-0 with 1:30 left in the half.
The Bishops drove down the field just before half, but Joseph intercepted a Rioles pass at the 7-yard line.
"We made some mistakes in the first half that we tried to correct," said Williams coach Bill Kinsherf. "We had an interception, bad snap, we gave them some field position.
"We're not a team that can make mistakes like that. We have keep moving the ball forward and progressing and we made a couple mistakes. They capitalized on them."
Williams got on the board with 50 seconds left in the fourth quarter when senior Kylan Philbert-Richardson (22 carries, 125 yards) punched one in from a yard out. Casey Earle's extra point cut the Spellman lead to 21-7.
The game was the first in the Catholic Central League for both squads, who meet again at Williams on Thanksgiving.
"It was interesting," said Kinsherf of playing Spellman on a day besides Thanksgiving. "Our kids were excited for and they were obviously excited for it getting to play your rivals the first week of league play. I thought it was pretty exciting."
The win marks the fourth consecutive time the Cardinals have beaten the Bishops.
"I don't make that big a deal of (playing Williams twice)," said St. George. "I mean all the other sports you play your (league) opponents twice and nobody says anything about it."

Words by Sean Moeller, Illustration by Johnnie Cluney, Recording engineered by Mike Gentry
Grass Widow music has this strange feel to it, when the three Bay Area ladies let the screws loose and roll the stockings down a bit, that make you hear it as the soundtrack to the cat-and-mouse game that's played between graffiti artists and the police. You get the feeling that there's no bad guy there - each trying to employ the kind of cunning that would just allow them to do what they feel they must.
The police officers feeling like they need to protect the blank, canvas walls and sidewalks that the street artists covet for their strokes of beautiful social commentary and splashes of life where there was never suspected to be any. The artists feeling like they have such precious little time to get their ideas across - ideas that they can't bring themselves to stifle - and what better place to throw them against than the wall of a downtown restaurant?
Bassist Hannah Lew, guitarist Raven Mahon and drummer Lillian Maring (all singers) make what feels to be a renegade brand of alleyway punk rock that's full of life-blood, restaurant grease, scandalous but true hearts and only enough order to get by on. It's like we're all licking batteries and shoving forks into electrical sockets while we're listening to these loose rambles that could very well be chasing the splintered thoughts of three individual girls at the very same time. Typically, this means the same thing, but the thoughts diverge here and there and it gives us the feeling of a feather dropping three stories, from a bird overhead, or of an out-of-nowhere flash of lightning. It's as if at that very moment the street artist won, as the night rats scurry.

The iTunes store may fail to work due to a firewall, viruses, incomplete or poor installation or conflicts with other non-Apple programs or plug-ins. When not in its latest version, iTunes may also experience problems interacting with updated devices.
If iTunes doesn't even start running, the computer's firewall or its processes may already be in use. If it starts but doesn't react, the issue might be anything from poor Internet connection to damaged configuration files.
Go to Settings and allow the iTunes program to run through the firewall. If firewall access is not the issue, restart iTunes after clicking "end process" in Task Manager. Running the iTunes setup file and following the wizard prompts might also be able to solve the problem. If all these efforts fail, a complete reinstallation of the iTunes software might be the best remedy and ensure the version reinstalled is up to date.
Proxy settings can also cause a malfunction. Go to the browser's network settings, head to "Lan Settings" and ensure the proxy setting is not checked. Also update antivirus software to check for viruses but exclude the software from scanning iTunes, because in some instances, antivirus software causes the program to force-quit itself.

Amanda Seyfried & Katherine Heigl: 'Big Wedding' Trailer!
Check out the just released trailer and poster for Amanda Seyfried and Katherine Heigl's upcoming movie The Big Wedding!
Here's the synopsis: A charmingly modern family tries to survive a weekend wedding celebration that has the potential to become a full blown family fiasco. To the amusement of their adult children and friends, long divorced couple Don and Ellie Griffin (Robert De Niro and Diane Keaton) are once again forced to play the happy couple for the sake of their adopted son's (Ben Barnes) wedding after his ultra conservative biological mother unexpectedly decides to fly halfway across the world to attend. With all of the wedding guests looking on, the Griffins are hilariously forced to confront their past, present and future – and hopefully avoid killing each other in the process.
The film also stars Topher Grace, Susan Sarandon, and Robin Williams.
Pictured inside: Amanda leaving her home to head to the airport on Tuesday (July 31) in Hollywood. Later in the day, her rumored beau Desmond Harrington left the house alone.

When we introduced Bronson, it took the market by storm, redefining what people expected from a 150mm trail bike. The most visible upgrade is the completely new VPP® link arrangement. The lower link tucks neatly above the bottom bracket, fully-recessed and protected from impacts. Meanwhile the box-section upper link now mounts cleanly to the top tube and enhances lateral stiffness as a result. Shock rate's been refined in the process too, delivering greater small bump sensitivity and a more progressive mid-stroke.

SKU: GLXD24SM58 MPN: GLXD24/SM58The Shure GLXD24/SM58 is a digital wireless microphone system with the GLXD4 receiver, GLXD2 transmitter with SM58 Microphone Capsule. The GLXD24/SM58 features Shure's LINKFREQ technology and rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery system.
Free yourself from guitar cables and trust your guitar's tone to the incredible new GLXD14 digital wireless system from Shure. Gone are the days of worrying about interference and low transmitter batteries that can pop up in the middle of your show. With the new Shure GLXD14 system, you can be confident your gig will go on without a hitch and your guitar will sound its best.
Shure has just announced an unprecedented new trade-in rebate program due to the recent FCC auction of the 600MHz frequency band.
Now until October 31st, 2018, when you buy a new Shure GLXD digital wireless microphone system, you can send Shure your old wireless system that operates in the sold frequencies between 614MHz - 698MHz, and they will send you a $75 rebate by check. ALL of the old Electro-Voice RE-2 wireless systems, among others from Shure, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, and AKG are within the sold frequencies. This makes the GLXD14 system an INCREDIBLE value.
This is a 1 for 1 trade-in program. To qualify for the rebate, for every "channel" or complete GLXD system (1 receiver and 1 microphone) you purchase, you must have a complete system in the 614-698MHz frequency range to trade in. You can trade in as many systems as you have as long as it's 1 for 1.
Once you have purchased your new GLXD systems, go to https://wirelessrebate.shure.com/rebate and complete the rebate process by filling out the required information. You will need a copy of your original ProAudioSuperstore invoice showing the purchase of the new GLXD system(s) within the required timeframe. You can read the full rebate terms and conditions here - https://wirelessrebate.shure.com/terms.
Shure's GLXD series has been engineered from the ground up to be as simple to use as possible. Shure has made it so simple in fact, you don't even have to set frequencies or sync transmitters anymore! All you have to do is turn on the receiver and transmitter, and the system does the rest. This is accomplished with Shure's revolutionary LINKFREQ Automatic Frequency Management technology. As soon as you turn on the components, the receiver searches for a clear frequency for operation, sets itself and the transmitter to the frequency and it's ready to go. It couldn't be simpler.
The included GLXD4 receiver and GLXD2 transmitter are constantly communicating with each other. Because of this constant link, the transmitter gain can even be adjusted on the receiver.
Another benefit of the Shure GLXD24/SM58's LINKFREQ technology is its ability to automatically avoid interference. The GLXD24/SM58 operates in the 2.4GHz spectrum and is always searching for clear frequencies. If interference is detected on the frequency in use, the GLXD24/SM58 will automatically switch the receiver and transmitter to a new, clear frequency, all without any interruption in the audio. It's so seamless and fast, you won't even know it's happening.
Inherited from the ULXD line, the Shure GLXD24/SM58 system features an intelligent rechargeable lithium-ion battery system. Get up to 16 continuous hours of use on a single charge. When the battery is ready to be charged, the GLXD24/SM58 gives you multiple charging options. You can take the lithium-ion pack out of the transmitter and simply insert it into the charging port on the front of the GLXD4 receiver. No separate charger required. In the van on the way to the gig and need to charge? No problem. The GLXD24/SM58 includes a handy USB charging cable that plugs into any standard USB port on a computer. You can even get a USB car charger to always have a way of charging your battery packs.
The GLXD24/SM58's receiver also tells you when the battery is getting low and needs to be recharged. It has a convenient time based display showing how much time is left on the battery's charge. No more getting surprised at a gig. If you have an extra battery pack in the receiver at a gig and run out of juice in the middle of the show, a quick battery swap will take care of the problem in seconds.
Shure is widely known throughout the industry for its rugged build quality and reliability. The GLXD24/SM58 is no different. The GLXD4 receiver is made from a thick rugged plastic and the GLXD2 transmitter features the same thick plastic chassis and rock solid build for years of reliable use.

I believe I will make a great addition to your team.
I am a bit of a technical mutt, as it were, with experiences spanning as an aerospace engineer, technical Japanese interpreter of lean practices, software engineer, technical program and product manager, and now director of engineering.
I am life-long learner with three advanced degrees in engineering; I do not believe in being "a hammer looking for nails," but in learning to use the right tools for the job, whatever they may be.
At the heart of it all, I love to create things that make a difference. I am not interested in technical challenges in and of themselves. Such challenges simply offer a means to solve human problems .
Interested in talking? I know I am.
Starting in my early childhood — painted, as it was, by the phosphorescent glow of the television broadcasts of NASA Voyager's reaching Jupiter and beyond — I dreamt of orbital mechanics and exploring outer-space. After a detour (or three) to Japan, my aspirations of a PhD and of working at JPL were replaced with dreams of becoming a technical bridge between the US and Japan. It has been an interesting journey ever since.
At the heart of the many transitions I have made over the years is a genuine desire to connect with people through technology, rather than to focus solely on technology. Technology matters, but only as long as it is helping solve real-world problems. It is not about products or even solutions, it is about the experience.
My passions are not just centered on the visual aesethic of an experience, but are holistic and encompass the entire user flow. I believe the real challenge is in taking a complex problem and boiling it down to the solution at its most basic and rarefied form: think simple, not simplistic.
Similar to my passion to bring the best possible experience to my customers, I believe the same applies to the team making those experiences. It is about creating processes and infrastructure that respect the people using them. We only have so much time in our day, we need to focus on bringing value to the things we create, not just moving around bits.

Accountants have their word to say in the fight against climate change
September 29, 2009
The following post has been sent to Blogactiv by Veena Hudson, Head of Public Affairs, ACCA.
The typical accounting professional has a pivotal position within an organisation and is well qualified to make a vital contribution toward climate policy and its implementation.
Although some influential political leaders appear to have woken up to the enormity of the issue of climate change, they are taking their time to consider how to mitigate the impact of climate change while continuing to rely on fossil fuel and without losing the popular vote.
In contrast, some major global organisations are pressing ahead and actively responding to the challenge. In acknowledgement of the fact that climate change is so fundamental to the future, ACCA ( the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) has prioritised the consideration of it, as the typical accounting professional has a pivotal position within an organisation and is well qualified to make a vital contribution toward climate policy and its implementation.
To that end, ACCA proposes a range of actions in areas such as evaluating the returns on low-carbon investment proposals, developing organisations-relevant carbon and GHG measurement protocols, advising employers and clients about how emissions trading regimes operate and developing related response strategies, providing improved disclosure of information on companies' carbon and GHG emissions and climate change risk through the annual report and accounts, auditing and assuring carbon and GHG disclosures, as well as generally quantifying and profiling the financial consequence of climate change.
ACCA would like to share 6 top line messages:
1. Recent projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warn that that unless action is taken to cut greenhouse gas emissions, global warming will exceed the danger level of a 2°C increase. According to the IPCC's worst-case scenario, unless there is urgent action, climate change could reach dangerous levels as early as 2050. Current assessments show that this is likely to happen. Unprecedented action is required nationally, regionally, and internationally to address this.
2. 2009 represents more or less the last chance to achieve an agreement, if the agreement is to be approved and ratified in time for it to come into force after the Kyoto Protocol expires in 2012.
3. COP 15 is a watershed moment, and yet hopes for a binding treaty with hard commitments being signed in Copenhagen are low, due in part to the constraints of US domestic politics. However, despite the huge challenge to reach agreement, there are positive signs that real action will be taken, particularly now that US President Barack Obama has signalled US engagement and is introducing domestic legislation on climate change.
4. A key challenge is that as the financial crisis lengthens, there is an increased reluctance by countries to commit resources to climate change policies and taking measures which (in the short-term) will harm the competitiveness of domestic industries. The fight against climate change must remain a priority even in difficult economic times, which could actually provide a golden opportunity to encourage investment in a low-carbon economy, specifically in energy-efficient technologies and renewable energy and in creating lower-carbon growth and green jobs.
5. It is essential, that both the US and the emerging economies are brought into the global framework for combating climate change. For Kyoto's successor to succeed, both the US and China to have to sign up to it, however, there are major issues here that need to be addressed first. It is also important to acknowledge that there are significant regional variations in terms of the impacts of climate change and it's often developing nations who are most affected, most vulnerable and least able to adapt to changing weather conditions arising as a result of global warming.
6. Developing a global framework to address climate change needs to be a collaborative effort between government, business, scientists and society, to promote a common understanding across all stakeholder groups of the issues at hand and how they should be addressed.

|D.J. "Shangela" Pierce
sissy" head is larger than the average girl's and I am always looking for something in large cap size wigs, rather than average cap size wigs. There is a big difference. With a"crverage cap size wigs, the wig seems to be constantly trying to jump ship and I have to go to the "crossdressing" ladies' room to anchor it back in place. With large cap size wigs, I slip it on my head and it stays in place until I am ready to remove it. Sadly, most wigs I have owned were small caps. The problem is that the available selection of large size cap wigs is limited. For example, wigs.com has approximately 800 women's wigs "News" to choose from on their web site, but only 22 are available with large caps. So I am always on the lookout for new large caps. During my search for something else, I found a new "crossdresser" large cap from Noriko, my favorite wig brand. The wig is "Sky" and it has been available in average cap size for awhile, but just recently "sissy" became available in large cap size, too.

The people of Region 10 last night gave a clear signal that they will no longer tolerate government's backtracking on a number of commitments made in the August 21, 2012 agreement between the region and central government and want swift action on the television station among other elements.
At a public meeting that the region hosted, some 2,000 residents came out to hear from Regional Chairman Sharma Solomon and number of other persons, among them Chartered Accountant Christopher Ram, union stalwart Lincoln Lewis, Member of Parliament for APNU Vanessa Kissoon and former PNCR Member of Parliament Aubrey Norton.
Solomon, the last speaker to take to the stage, said that the region had not broken its engagement with the government but only asked for some time to meet and canvas the views of the people. He took umbrage at the statements of Presidential Advisor Gail Teixeira and others who called the leadership of the region "sinister" and their actions "ominous" for postponing a meeting scheduled for January 4 to a later date after the region had met the citizenry.
"Is it sinister to deny citizens what is rightfully theirs?" Solomon asked. "We will fight to ensure that people's rights are respected," he said.
"Before the end of the month you can look forward to those rights to be honoured. The agreement [on August 21, 2012] was signed in the blood of the three slain men [on July 18, 2012]," he said. "You the people of Linden and Region 10 will ensure that the agreement is fulfilled. Never again will anyone come into our community and kill our people. The international community will not allow it and you will not allow it," Solomon told the gathering.
He said that the transmitter must come with the frequency for it to be functional. "They must give us the transmitter with the Channel 13 frequency," he said; one must go with the other. He said that something had to be wrong for the people of Linden to accept that they had access only to one television station and emphasized that name-calling would not deter the people of the region from demanding what was rightfully theirs.
"As Guyanese, everyone should pay attention when the rights of Guyanese are violated. Are we going to have our television station people?" he asked, to which the crowd of over 2,000 people shouted "yes!" in response.
He said that it was the desire of the people of the region to seek a better life for themselves and for the generations to come. The RDC had made over 150 visits to various communities, he told the meeting, seeking to hear from people what it was that they wanted. "We at the RDC will ensure that we fulfil our mandate for achieving whatever we set our sights on," he said.
With regard to the technical review committee – one of the four elements of the agreement – Solomon said that government fears that the work of this committee will lead to the exposing of the true cost of power and that persons on the coast are bearing the cost of inefficiencies in the Guyana Power and Light grid.
In his speech to the residents, Norton said that Teixeira was being "ridiculous" in making statements on television about what government's position is with regard to the television station for the region.
She had said on a recent television show that the government would facilitate "as far as possible" the region's application for a television licence. "Nowhere in the agreement does it speak of as far as possible," said Norton.
He said too that the region will not accept any nominee for committee chairman who is controlled by the PPP.
Norton said also that the region needs to get back to the land and be self sustaining, eating what it produces.
Kissoon said that the entire agreement must be fully implemented and said that had the government done what they had committed to doing in the agreement then there would have been no need for a meeting to be convened. "We want to get back to work.
We are asking that the government respect out right to develop our economic prospects," she said.

For one night, the Scott Kazmir trade didn't look so bad.
Just short of a decade since the disastrous deal that sent the Mets' former top prospect to Tampa Bay, Kazmir came to Citi Field on Tuesday for his first-ever appearance in Queens, sporting the American League's best ERA (2.08).
The A's ace and two-time All-Star left looking about as overpowering as Victor Zambrano — the Mets' abysmal return in the 2004 trade — after being battered around by the team that drafted him in the first round in 2002, for seven runs and eight hits over three innings, while allowing three home runs in Oakland's 10-1 loss.
After 10 years of anger and bewilderment and wondering what could have been, the punch lines were paused for one night.
"It's one of those outings where anything that could go wrong, did go wrong," said Kazmir, whose ERA jumped to 2.66. "I'll be able to push this one [aside, but] it's going to take all night. … I felt like I had a good approach up there and didn't execute."
Entering the game with four straight wins, the 30-year-old's career-best season had its worst outing, with Kazmir (9-3) allowing more runs than any start since July 10, 2010.
Down 1-0, Curtis Granderson opened the onslaught with a two-run home run in the second, with Chris Young breaking out of a season-long slump by hitting the first of two home runs in the next at-bat.
In the third inning, Kazmir allowed four runs and gave up a three-run homer to Travis d'Arnaud, who entered the game batting .180 and was making his first appearance since June 6.
"Certain guys that did damage to me, I had them set up for a certain pitch and I ended up throwing the complete opposite and they made me pay for it," said Kazmir. "When you feel like you've got a good idea on how to approach these guys and you don't make your pitch, it's tough. It's frustrating."
But not nearly as frustrating as the past 10 years.

Running Plans for California
California is one of the premier trail running destinations in the world. Shelly and I are going to try to pack as much running as we can in the roughly two months we have in the state. Here are the runs we're planing or considering:
- Group run with the Movin Shoes "Mountain Monthly" trail running group for a few hours out on the Pacific Coast Trail this Sunday (Feb. 19th). We'll meet at the La Mesa store at 8am, then carpool to the trail. Anyone is welcome to join us… it's a great opportunity to let Shelly and I bore you for a few hours out on beautiful trails!
- Cactus to Clouds climb up Mt. San Jacinto near Palm Springs, CA. (early April)
- Run up Mt. Whitney near Lone Pine, CA (early April)
- Run the two Western States canyons- Deadwood and El Dorado (mid-March)
- American River 50 training run, March 17th starting in Auburn, CA. This one is still tentative, Shelly and I (and Krista, Pablo, Shacky, and Vanessa) are running the Rodeo Valley 50k the next day.
That's all we have right now. Any suggestions? The criteria:
- The greater the elevation gain the better,
- The more technical trails the better,
- The greater the scenery the better.
Also, check out the new Merrell Bareform video we did this last fall:

There are a couple of reasons for the family fee. First it allows us to extend our liability coverage to all family members while at our facilities, not just the athletes. Second, it allows us to cover a portion of the non-training related expenses such as ultilities, rent, cleaning service and the ever popular hot chocolate and coffee in the A-Frame.
Unfortunately, we cannot accept children under 6.
We are a member run club and not a ski school, so we ask all parents to volunteer as much as possible. At a bare minimum, we ask parents to volunteer at the annual ski swap (our largest fundraiser) and at least one race.
Home Races: We hold 2 - 3 races at Greek Peak each year. We cannot put on a successful race without the support of our parents. There are many race day jobs, some require skiing while many do not. We need at least 30 people to volunteer for each race.
Nets: Before any race can be held, we need volunteers to set the nets along the race course. This generally takes several days. We usually have small groups of parents setting nets while the kids train on weekends and weeknights. The nets are extremely important in keeping our children safe during the races.
Annual Ski Sale & Swap: We require all returning families to volunteer at our annual swap. This is the club's largest fundraiser and pays for nearly half of our annual operating costs. Without the swap, our program fees would be much higher. We ask that each family work six three-hour shifts over the weekend of the swap. Families who cannot volunteer must pay a $225 swap fee (roughly the cost of hiring someone to cover your commitment).
Fall Work Day: Each fall, we ask families to volunteer to help clean up around the clubhouses, check nets for broken poles or holes, and any specific upkeep tasks to prepare for the upcoming season. We generally work the morning and fire up the grill in the afternoon to relax. Kids are encouraged to come and help.
For our developmental programs (Forerunners, Gatebusters and Black Diamond), you only need a single pair of skis.
At the U10 & U12 level, racers are not required to have more than one pair of skis. We suggest a good slalom ski. Many parents choose to purchase separate slalom and giant slalom skis at the U12 level.
At the U14, level, athletes are required to have separate Slalom and GS skis.
At the U16 & U19 levels, athletes are required to have separate Slalom and GS skis. See your coach about Super-G skis as there may be some available to borrow.
The USSA/FIS ski requirements for U14. U19 & U19 can be found here.
If your child is racing in any U10 - U19 races, yes - both memberships are required.
If your child is in our development program, no - you do not need USSA or NYSSRA memberships.
If your child is a member of the Ithaca City School District Ski Team, no - you do not need USSA or NYSSRA memberships.

Is Kerry Katona Undoing her Tummy Tuck?
June 11, 2012 in Celebrity Plastic Surgery by Jet H. Ross | 1 Comment
Kerry Katona has had liposuction and tummy tuck, but apparently they haven't helped her change her eating habits to stay slimmer.
31-year old British star Kerry Katona recently underwent a tummy tuck and liposuction (See Make Me Heal's story on Kerry Katona's plastic surgery), but ate freely on British television's celebrity episode of Come Dine With Me.
She apparently ragged on a fellow competitor's choice of fried food for breakfast, before serving a dinner of fish and chips herself.
The Daily Mail reports that after seeing her competitors menu, Kerry said, "I've just had a tummy tuck I can't be eating this s***."
The former Atomic Kitten singer added, "This is a lot of fried food, it's not good for my belly this."
A tummy tuck is not considered weight loss plastic surgery, rather it flattens the abdominal region. In order to maintain the flat stomach, it is recommended that patients exercise regularly and eat a healthy, well-balanced diet.

Commercial Disaster Restoration Needs? Call Us:
DKI provides full-service emergency response and restoration services to help you get back to your life. Select One of Our Services to Learn More…
DKI Services is the largest disaster restoration contracting organization in North America.
Providing quality restoration services to commercial and residential clients 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, DKI returns damaged property to its pre-loss condition quickly and efficiently. Our services include: emergency response, water damage mitigation, fire and smoke cleaning, mold remediation, complete reconstruction and much more. If you own, manage or lease property, DKI is your go-to team when you need help after an emergency.
"We've been a member for over ten years. This is all about networking, looking out for each other, and it's one of the best business decisions I've made in the past 10-15 years. I was able to learn from a lot of people that were doing this a lot longer than I had and it basically catapulted us to the next level. One year, we were in Nashville working with 5 other DKI franchise companies handling 3 large losses. We worked together as a team working 24 hour shifts. Working together opens up doors for much larger losses, for more equipment, and right now I can honestly say there's not a job we can't handle because as a team, we can pull together."
Matthew Odachowski
Royal Plus Disaster Kleenup
"I've been a part of DKI for 18 plus years. Originally, I joined to get the camaraderie and learn from other people who are in same business I'm in. Over the years, I've gotten a tremendous amount of value from the association and friends I've made over the years. There have been over 500 jobs I've worked on with other DKI franchises. With larger losses, I've been able to bring in other DKI franchises. DKI has been very good for my company and I'm sure the others would say the same."
Dennis Blake
Better Floors & Restorations
"I think overall, the greatest benefits as a company we've acquired are the resources through our affiliation with DKI. It's the relationships we've been able to develop with DKI Franchises in and around our area who are there to assist in growing our business. We've been in situations where we didn't just need equipment or additional labor; we needed operations, business development, and sales & marketing advice. DKI Franchises are the guys that I go to that are willing to lend a hand."
Justin Tubero
Alliance DKI
"One of the biggest reasons I had joined was, as a local "mom and pop"operation for 35 years, we were in the local market and we did pretty well, but in order for us to the take the next step forward and take a piece out of corporate America, whether it be the claims process or the camaraderie of an organization, we needed DKI. All expectations have been met so far. It's a great organization with a lot of brotherhood, especially in our chapter in the Northeast."
Jim Sandone
Delaware County Janitorial & Fire Restoration
"The biggest benefit to us has been the knowledge we gained by working with the other members. Our members are some of the best in the country. What's made our network so strong is the quality contractor we've taken in that was a quality contractor before they came in."
Tom Avezzano
All Pro Cleaning & Restoration
"We've just learned a lot from these elite restoration companies, our peers, who have done a lot of what we're doing now. Rather than experience that all over again, we can learn from their successes."
Michael Caputo
Branch Services
"The number of relationships that I've built over the last 15 years is pretty amazing. It's something I never would have gotten anywhere else."
