After serving for all four years of the president's first term, LaHood is departing at a key time of transition in the transportation community.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, whose job status had remained unclear since President Barack Obama's re-election, announced he will not stay on board for a second term.
For months, transportation officials and stakeholders had been guessing whether LaHood would remain in office. His announcement today will likely further the speculation over who will serve as his successor.
LaHood made the announcement to U.S. Department of Transportation employees this morning. He said he will remain in his position until a successor is confirmed.
After serving for all four years of the president's first term, LaHood departs at a key time of transition in the transportation community. During his tenure, Congress spent years debating a long-term highway bill that was often the subject of bitter partisan debate. It ultimately passed a two-year bill last year. His departure ensures that a new transportation secretary will be in office when Congress begins planning out the successor to that legislation.
As transportation secretary, LaHood's signature issue was the reduction of distracted driving, and he addressed it as often as he could. He also presided over the department at a time when it helped oversee $48 billion in infrastructure investment associated with the 2009 stimulus bill.
His tenure in office also coincided with the development of the innovative TIGER grants, which have awarded $2.7 billion in several rounds of funding to jurisdictions that had to compete for the projects. Many in the transportation community viewed TIGER as an innovative program that could serve as a model for other transportation grants.
"Under his leadership, we have made significant investments in our passenger rail system and laid the groundwork for the high-speed rail network of the future," President Obama said in a statement. "And every American who travels by air, rail or highway can thank Ray for his commitment to making our entire transportation system safer and stronger."
Yet LaHood's tenure was also marked by some frustrations. While President Obama made high-speed rail a priority, Congress has worked to cut off that funding, and LaHood sometimes faced criticism of the program, especially after three Republican governors' rejected high-speed rail money.
His time in office was also marked by frustration with Congress over its inability to pass a long-term transportation bill. While Congress last year did pass a highway and transit bill, known as MAP-21, that offered level funding, it failed to make the major changes necessary to transportation policy that would ensure transportation funds remains sustainable in the long term.
Famously in 2009, LaHood endorsed the idea of exploring the idea of moving towards a vehicle miles traveled fee, which would provide a more stable funding stream than the gas tax and is an idea endorsed by many in the transportation community. The White House quickly backed away from that suggestion.
"Now is not the time to let up - we still have a number of critical safety goals to accomplish and still more work to do on the implementation of MAP-21," LaHood said in his email to DOT employees.

Phil Elverum is a **ing genius. This has been said before. Given the absence of his records from the end-of-year lists that have emerged thus far, the dearth of academic syllabuses dedicated to the interpretation and deconstruction of his oeuvre, and the distinct lack of massive stone statues constructed in his honour, it is a point worth reiterating.
There is not the space here to list every example in the ever-expanding body of evidence for this qualification of genius, but they include the following:
1) With Mount Eerie, Elverum has managed to take death metal, strip it of its laughable absurdity, harness its power, and combine it with his own lo-fi musical style in a manner that is as groundbreaking as it is breathtaking (best exemplified by 2009's Wind's Poem).
2) Reeling from a broken relationship and distressed by the reactionary neo-con politics of the Bush Jr. regime, Elverum self-exiled himself to a remote Norwegian cabin in the winter of 2002/3. His journal entries from this Scandinavian adventure, and the acoustic songs he wrote there, were reproduced in the book/CD set Dawn. In it, Phil spends most of his time alone, chopping wood, reading Tolstoy and obsessively ruminating over his break-up. In the hands of a lesser writer, this would be an intolerable exercise in tedious self-indulgence. It's actually a sublime piece of writing on the human condition; Thoreau's Walden for the Noughties. It asks questions about modern life and how we live it, about relationships and communication, about art and toil, about self-reflection and self-worth. Elverum does similar things in all of his work, in fact. Even if he doesn't necessarily provide the answers, every extra little fragment of his output that you hear, read or absorb can help you feel that little bit closer to enlightenment.
3) His physical records are stunning works of art. If you fetishize album art or if you're searching for justification for the continuation of the physical format, look no further than Elverum's produce. Gorgeously glossy LP sleeves house carefully crafted lyric booklets adorned with beautiful landscape photographs. And if this polymathic plethora of talent wasn't enough, or if black metal-inspired soundscapes and self-dissecting journals of hermitic migration seem too humourlessly po-faced, the gifted is also a pretty nifty amateur cartoonist.
This year saw Elverum bless us with two LPs, Clear Moon, released back in May, followed by September's Ocean Roar.
The two records vary slightly in their mood and styles, though are clear companion pieces. From its outset, Clear Moon suggests a retreat from Wind's Poem's death metal approach. Opener 'Through the Trees pt. 2' is a gentle, acoustic number with Elverum's delicate voice ruminating on nature, place, art, civilisation, "mountains and websites".
'The Place Lives' and 'The Place I Live' showcase more of a doom-folk sound. The former's suffocating drones, ominous keys and imposing cymbals virtually drown out the vocals. On the latter, as if summoned by Elverum's sense of loneliness and insignificance ("If I look or if I don't look / Clouds are always passing over / The place I live") Allyson Foster's ethereal voice floats by for company like a poltergeist Enya.
'Over Dark Water' and the title track are darkly fuzzing prayer-chants. 'Clear Moon' drags itself out for over seven minutes; dramatic cymbals splash around like waves while Disintegration-era Cure keyboards add to the sense of menace. 'Yawning Sky' has a warmer ambiance, though the lyrical themes are again Man's frailty and mortality in the face of the all-powerful, infinite natural world.
Mother Nature is Elverum's God(dess). A threatening and frightening, humbling-yet-comforting matriarch; it is she who remains his object of awed obsession (other than himself of course, as he reminds us at one point: "I meant all my songs not as a picture of the woods / but just to remind myself that I briefly live"). Over the course of the two records there are around 22 references the sky or the clouds, no less than ten mentions of fog, nine nods to trees, woods, or branches, and at least 28 references to rain, water, rivers, oceans, seas, whirlpools or waterfalls.
Ocean Roar's opener 'Pale Lights' kicks straight into a rolling, roaring, Eerie-metal take on krautrock. At around the 2:30 mark, the instrumentation starts to fade down low. At 3:00 it becomes overdubbed by a softly-sung minimalist ballad. It's as if one demo track has been accidentally taped over an entirely different song - but it works. "'Who is there,' I call / A small yelp from the wind / And then / More roaring", whispers Phil, before the sound of the irrepressible tornado kicks back in. Towards the end, an organ bobs to the surface but subsequently submerges again. Are the voice and organ cameos supposed to symbolise the transience of life? You're born, you live for a bit, make your small, temporary mark on a tiny part of the planet, and then disappear again. Human beings emerged, the species is here for the time being, but like the dinosaurs or the dodo it's an inevitably fleeting appearance. The forces of nature keep on rolling, utterly indifferent to you, or to us, and our petty, pointless existences.
As implied by its title, the second record is the fiercer of the releases. The closing instrumental also sees Elverum combining his metal palette with the style of krautrock - this time more specifically the lively meandering of Faust's track 'Krautrock'. In between, there is a face-meltingly savage Popol Vuh cover and the drone metal of 'Waves' but also the title track and 'I Walked Home Beholding' which are softer and possessed with something approaching sanguinity. The former starts with an engine wheezing like a depressed Herbie. The lyrics mention "we". For once, he is not alone (even if still distracted by the waves and the sky and the hills and the trees). On the latter, over an amiable organ and friendly finger-clicks, Phil casts himself as a solitary walker, journeying by foot from studio to home, philosophising at the same time. He sees clouds, water, snow, but also "people slowly living all their lives" and becomes finally "at peace with the meaninglessness of living". A positive note, relatively speaking.
If all this sounds too overwhelming, or if the digital age has warped your mind the extent that your attention span now resembles that of a fidgety goldfish, Elverum has just released the Clear Moon/Ocean Roar Condensed Versions 7-inch:
"Side A is all the songs from Clear Moon played at the same time on top of each other. Side B is all the songs from Ocean Roar played at the same time on top of each other. No further explanation necessary."
**ing genius.

Mommy's Creation: My first
attempt at embroidery on paper, lots of fun!
I sat down the other day and did an impromptu art project together
with two of my kids! And of course I'm happy to share the results with
you, since this is a great project for all ages and abilities. I cut
out lots of petal shaped felt pieces and provided the kids with folded
cards, glue, a box of buttons and some yarn.
Add your kid's picture and you have a great Mother's Day Card!
Here's what they came up
Aren't these just the cutest? My almost 8 yr old daughter did the
one on the left, and my almost 5 yr old son did the one on the right. I
just love seeing their personalities reflected in their art!
You'll Need:
- felt
- buttons
- yarn
- thick needle with eye big enough for yarn
- card stock
How To:
Pretty self explanatory, just some notes about the embroidery:
- When embroidering on paper, unlike fabric there is no room for
making mistakes since a hole is a hole!
- So plan ahead and make your holes before you start embroidering.
Also, you really can't see what you're doing from the back, so there's
no way to know where to come up through the paper with your needle
unless you've either made holes or marked them with
- I used both yarn (green) and embroidery floss (orange) and I love
the contrast between the two weights.
- With embroidered cards you'll want to work on a flat piece of card
stock (or two pieces, like mine, namely a white square glued onto a
pink square) and then glue your artwork to the card after you've
completed the embroidery. Because the embroidered card had some
dimension it can't lie flat, (which is actually a plus!) so I used hot
glue to affix it to the card.
Enjoy, and keep in touch!

November 2020 - A message from Jonathan Marks
We're now eleven months into the new decade and still in the grip of the COVID-19 virus in this part of Europe. Luckily you can't catch it via this website and maybe this time travel stuff to a much friendly world is a source of light relief. This month we have reached 904,521 unique downloads of Media Network programmes.
I'm Jonathan Marks. If this is the first time you've visited the vault, then I'm glad you dropped by! There are over 597 editions of Media Network, representing just over half the episodes that we made and broadcast from the Radio Netherlands' studios in Hilversum. I'm pleased to say most survived in excellent studio quality (quite often in stereo).
As you may know, I currently work with all kinds of high-tech scale-ups working in Photonics and TeraHertz technologies in many parts of Europe, but especially in the Eindhoven and Enschede regions of the Netherlands. I'm particularly fascinated because this country is where international broadcasting started in Europe and where the long-range properties of shortwave radio were first discovered in 1926/1927. Last year on November 6th 2019, we celebrated 100 years of radio in The Netherlands. This year this country is celebrating 75 years since liberation from Nazi occupation as well as 75 years of the UN. The current pandemic will overshadow many of the planned commemorations. Hopefully, they will simply be postponed and not cancelled. Media Network made several documentaries to explain the very different contribution that Dutch international broadcasting made to media in other parts of the world. You can read more about some of the forgotten firsts in this article I wrote on the Medium platform here. A video of the presentation on November 6th 2019 will be posted here when I get a moment.
Reliving the Mainstream broadcast heritage of the 20th Century.
In early February 2010, I began an online experiment here on Libsyn with podcasting to understand how the distribution system works and see whether we could rebuild an audience. We wanted to recreate a place to listen to vintage editions of the Media Network programme as broadcast on short-wave by Radio Netherlands in the period 1981-2000. It is over 39 years since "Media Network" was launched as the name of the media show on Radio Netherlands, building on the rich heritage of programmes that went before it.
We ran the programme on the shortwave wireless from May 7th 1981 until the end of October 2000 with more than 1000 editions of the show. Many of the features are gradually making their way onto this website as a celebration of international broadcasting's second Golden Age.
Radio Netherlands no longer exists as a radio station in English in the way that we knew it. (They signed off at the end of June 2012 as documented on this site). The RN Classical Music station was around for a short while after, but that too had been yanked from the Interwebs. Join me in raising a glass to the great days of analogue adventures!
As of November 2020, we have now reached more than 904,521 downloads, numbers being boosted by interest in the programmes about Rwanda, Forces Radio, spy number stations and several documentaries about propaganda, during the Second World War and later. On average, when I am actively uploading, this site logs around 6670 downloaded episodes a month, which isn't bad for vintage material.
First of its kind
Media Network was one of the first international communications magazines of its time. I hosted and produced the programme, but a lot of the content was made by a network of volunteer monitors, reporters and researchers located all over the globe. Diana Janssen also joined me as co-host during the last 5 years of the programme. She made a considerable contribution to our success.
Where do these shows come from?
I kept copies of most of the show, especially those that dealt with specific issues or were connected to current events in that period. Since leaving Radio Netherlands in 2003, I have gradually digitized the tapes as part of my research into international broadcasting and where it might go after shortwave. Personally, I find it amazing to relive this era, especially as most of it was pre-Web, pre-Skype, pre-YouTube, pre-email, when most people thought twice about picking up the phone to call a radio station in another country. There is also a lot to be learned from what worked and what failed. Too many recent media ventures could have learned a lot from those who went before them.
I am always interested in your reactions, especially from people who may be discovering this material for the first time. It will encourage me to post more. Looking at the site stats, it would seem that around 13% of the subscribers are downloading via iTunes. The rest do so directly from the site or using 3rd party apps. Please tell friends about the vault and encourage them to subscribe. We have opened an email address for feedback. Just write to: firstname.lastname@example.com
There are also radio related videos which I made more recently over on my video vault on Vimeo. You will find links to those videos here on this blog.
This is a new form of the website now that Libsyn has updated the style of the podcast feeds. You can also subscribe in iTunes by searching for "Media Network Vintage". As each "new" edition is published, it will download automatically to your MP3-player of choice. I personally find the Downcast app to be the best for IOS. But other podcast apps are available.
I know some of the material here is niche stuff to many broadcasters - but I also know that people interested in international communications and broadcasting are very passionate people. Because of politics, it provided a constant wave of stories. I also believe that we developed one of the first collaborative formats on international radio, where individuals could do some detective work, report their results, and share experiences with those with a similar passion.
We have started to release video versions of Media Network. I have succeeded in filming on my travels, including in Washington DC, Bucharest, Caversham, Vienna and Berlin. Watch this space later in 2020.
Aug 16, 2013
I often feel that many exhibitions in 2014 will go the way of Comdex. Many people don't even remember the name. They were a whole series of computer exhibitions in the US which suddenly collapsed into a black hole.
Those were the days when phones were phones and the only way to make a video on it was to fiddle around...
Aug 16, 2013
Very early edition of Media Network when Dennis Powell reported on monitoring the US invasion of Grenada in November 1983. We did everything on very ropey old phone lines which must have sounded horrendeous on shortwave. But we got the news out.
Re-live original Media Network shows as broadcast between 1980-2000. Curator & host Jonathan Marks shares the archive of insight into international broadcasting. And watch for occasional new episodes. Enjoy.

NEW YORK (AP) -- NBC is changing the backstage leadership at its struggling "Today" show, which has consistently been behind ABC's "Good Morning America" in the ratings since replacing Ann Curry as an anchor this summer.
An NBC executive who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the plan is not finalized said Monday that Jim Bell will be replaced as the show's executive producer. Veteran NBC News executive Alexandra Wallace will oversee management of "Today" and a search is under way for Bell's successor.
NBC Sports said Bell will become executive producer of NBC's Olympics coverage, a role he took on this summer for the network's successful coverage of the London Olympics.
The "Today" show had a 17-year winning streak in the morning ratings, the last six under Bell's tutelage. But its ABC competitors made inroads this spring and after the decision was made in June to have Savannah Guthrie replace Curry as Matt Lauer's co-anchor, "Today" has fallen consistently behind in the ratings. The only exception was when NBC was in London for the Olympics, though "Today" recently has been closing the gap with "Good Morning America."
Bell came forward several weeks ago to say that removing Curry was his decision. At the time, many viewers seemed to believe that Lauer was involved.
Wallace, top deputy to NBC News president Steve Capus and a former "NBC Nightly News" executive producer, only recently was picked to replace the executive producer of Brian Williams' low-rated newsmagazine, "Rock Center."
The change at the morning news show was first reported by The New York Times.

Investors should prepare for a financial shock this year, one that greatly reduces the appetite for risk, predicts Gary Shilling, a leading economist and president of A. Gary Shilling & Co.
"We are dealing with a system that is very fragile," said Shilling, addressing the 10th annual Forecast Dinner hosted by the CFA Society of Colorado on Thursday evening.
Shilling said it wouldn't take much to stall a still sluggish U.S. economy, although he doesn't know the exact trigger.
China's shadow banking system has accumulated massive debts and could crack as defaults rise. Emerging-market turmoil could worsen or more countries could throw up trade barriers. Fighting in the Middle East could spread, driving up oil prices.
Whatever the spark, Shilling said investors will flee riskier assets such as equities and commodities in favor of cash and U.S. Treasury securities.
Shilling gained fame in the early 1980s when he wrote "Is Inflation Ending?" and for persistent forecasts since of lower interest rates, which he argues could drop again as deflation takes hold.
Deflationary pressures will be most noticeable in commodities, including raw materials and energy, where a sharp rise in domestic production is boosting supplies.
Shilling notes there is a difference between "bad" deflation resulting from a sharp drop in demand as during the Great Depression and "good" deflation generated by productivity-fueled expansions in supply after the Civil War and in the 1920s.
"We have a little bit of both right now," he said.
Businesses have boosted their efficiency, producing more goods at a lower cost, allowing corporate profits to claim a larger share of economic activity.
At the same time, labor's share of U.S. gross domestic product has shrunk, increasing income polarization and hindering consumer demand and the recovery.
"Workers' share of income and purchasing power is going down," Shilling said. "How can consumers increase spending in real terms without having the jobs and income to do so?"
Powerful deleveraging forces are at work as households and businesses shed debt, overwhelming the Federal Reserve's massive debt purchases, which have done more to boost excess bank reserves than economic activity.
New Fed Chair Janet Yellen faces the difficult task of unwinding those reserves gradually enough to avoid triggering a recession but quickly enough to prevent inflation.
Shilling estimates she has about four years before the deleveraging cycle ends and stronger demand and hiring return. After 32 years of calling for disinflation and deflation, Shilling now raises the specter of a destabilizing inflation should Yellen fail.

San Ysidro accepts superintendent's resignation
The San Ysidro School District board voted 3 to 2 to accept the resignation of Superintendent Manuel Paul after a nearly three-hour closed meeting Thursday night at the district's education center in San Ysidro.
Board members Yolanda Hernandez and Antonio Martinez cast the dissenting votes.
The closed session began at 5:54 p.m. Reconvening the open session at 8:42 p.m., board President Jason M-B Wells told the remaining audience of about 20 that there was one action item to report.
"On a vote of 3 to 2, the San Ysidro School District governing board has accepted an agreement to part ways with our current superintendent, to include his letter of resignation dated March 18 with the effective retirement date of June 30," Wells said. "With the San Diego County Office of Education's support, this was found to be a fiscally responsible resolution for the district, and the final terms of the agreement will be made as a matter of public record once concluded."
Paul, 61, was not present at the special board meeting, having been placed on paid leave since Jan. 15 after he and 14 other South County educators and contractors were indicted on corruption charges. He and the other defendants were scheduled to be arraigned in February, but the proceeding was continued to April 12.
Assistant Superintendent Gloria Madera has been serving as superintendent designee. The board did not release information on how the next superintendent will be selected, nor were details provided on what payout Paul will receive.
Paul had testified in June that he accepted a $2,500 cash payment in a steak house parking lot from a contractor seeking business with the district. He explained that the money was for campaign signs for board member Hernandez, who was facing voters in November 2010. His testimony was part of a lawsuit against the district over a solar panel contract.
Paul, who attended San Ysidro schools as a child and worked for the district for 33 years, was named superintendent in November 2007, after serving as interim superintendent. The district has eight schools and about 5,500 students in kindergarten through eighth grade, with an annual budget of about $33 million.
After Wells adjourned Thursday's meeting, board member Jean Romero thanked everyone in the room for being there. She then spoke of her admiration for the actor Edward James Olmos and recited the words he speaks in a bank commercial currently airing on television.
"Life has a tendency to teach us what is right and what's wrong and you learn from that experience," Romero said, quoting Olmos in the commercial. "Trust, integrity and commitment, we must have that, and if we have that, we have everything.
"And we have to get back to focusing on what we need to do for the students of this district," she added. "We've spent the last four months not even addressing any issue on education and I think we need to get back to that, otherwise we are just keeping on fooling around and not getting done what we need to get done."

Homemade Tortilla Chips from 'Ultimate Nachos'
Use this basic tortilla chip recipe as a base for frying up your own chips to use in recipes from our Cook the Book column this week: Lee Frank and Rachel Anderson's Ultimate Nachos. While the recipe is written for a single tortilla, you can fry many, many more chips in this manner. If you're using a large skillet, or frying more than a couple of tortillas, you will want to increase the amount of oil used. A depth of 1/4 inch of oil is plenty for these slender chips.

- Yield:Makes 6 to 8 chips
- Active time: 5 minutes
- Total time:5 minutes
- 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) vegetable or canola oil
- 1 corn tortilla
- Salt
- Cayenne pepper (optional)
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the oil to 350º. You'll know the oil is ready when you add a small piece of tortilla to the skillet and it floats and bubbles.
Cut round tortilla into triangle shapes of any size you want, then add the triangles to the oil.
When one side becomes golden brown, about 1 minute, flip them over and fry the opposite sides until golden brown.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and transfer to paper towels to drain.
Toss the chips with salt and the cayenne, if using.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Thursday approved two proposals submitted by the national securities exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) that address failures that occurred during the "flash crash" on May 6, 2010.
One initiative establishes a "limit up-limit down" mechanism that prevents trades in individual exchange-listed stocks from occurring outside of a specified price band.
When implemented, the SEC says this new mechanism will replace the existing single-stock circuit breakers that the commission approved on a pilot basis after the flash crash, when the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 600 points in about five minutes and then quickly rebounded.
The second initiative updates existing marketwide circuit breakers that when triggered, halt trading in all exchange-listed securities throughout the U.S. markets.
According to the SEC, the existing marketwide circuit breakers were adopted in October 1988 and have been triggered only once, in 1997. "The changes lower the percentage-decline threshold for triggering a marketwide trading halt and shorten the amount of time that trading is halted," the SEC says.
The exchanges and FINRA will implement these changes by February 4, 2013. On Thursday, the commission approved both proposals for a one-year pilot period, during which the exchanges, FINRA, and the SEC will assess their operation and consider whether any modifications are appropriate.
"The initiatives we approved are the product of a significant effort to devise a sophisticated, yet workable and effective way to protect our markets from excessive volatility," said SEC chairwoman Mary Schapiro, in a statement. "In today's complex electronic markets, we need an automated and appropriately calibrated way to pause or limit trading if prices move too far too fast."
According to the SEC, the two proposals will work as follows:
'Limit Up-Limit Down' Plan for Individual Securities
The "limit up-limit down" mechanism, established jointly by the exchanges and FINRA, prevents trades in individual listed equity securities from occurring outside of a specified price band, which would be set at a percentage level above and below the average price of the security over the immediately preceding five-minute period. For more liquid securities—those in the S&P 500 Index, Russell 1000 Index and certain exchange-traded products—the level will be 5%, and for other listed securities the level will be 10%. The percentages will be doubled during the opening and closing periods, and broader price bands will apply to securities priced $3 per share or less.
To accommodate more fundamental price moves, there would be a five-minute trading pause, similar to the pause triggered by the current circuit breakers, if trading is unable to occur within the price band for more than 15 seconds. Under the new plan all trading centers, including exchanges, automated trading venues and broker-dealers executing trades internally, must establish policies and procedures to prevent trades from occurring outside the applicable price bands, honor any trading pause and otherwise comply with the procedures set forth in the plan.
Updated Marketwide Circuit Breakers
The revised marketwide circuit breaker rules update the existing rules by:
- Reducing the market decline percentage thresholds needed to trigger a circuit breaker to 7%, 13% and 20% from the prior day's closing price, rather than declines of 10%, 20% or 30%.
- Shortening the duration of trading halts that do not close the market for the day to 15 minutes, from 30, 60 or 120 minutes.
- Simplifying the structure of the circuit breakers so that there are only two relevant trigger time periods, those that occur before 3:25 p.m. and those that occur on or after 3:25 p.m. The two periods replace the current six-period structure.
- Using the broader S&P 500 Index, rather than the Dow, as the pricing reference to measure a market decline.
- Requiring the trigger thresholds to be recalculated daily rather than quarterly.
The marketwide circuit breakers were not triggered during the severe market disruption of May 6, 2010, which led the exchanges and FINRA, in consultation with SEC staff, to assess whether the circuit breakers needed to be updated in light of today's market structure.

The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) identifies small area concentrations of multiple deprivation across all of Scotland in a consistent way. It allows effective targeting of policies and funding where the aim is to wholly or partly tackle or take account of area concentrations of multiple deprivation.
SIMD ranks small areas (called data zones) from most deprived (ranked 1) to least deprived (ranked 6,976). People using SIMD will often focus on the data zones below a certain rank, for example, the 5%, 10%, 15% or 20% most deprived data zones in Scotland.
SIMD provides a wealth of information to help improve the understanding about the outcomes and circumstances of people living in the most deprived areas in Scotland.
The latest SIMD, SIMD16, was published on 31 August 2016. All SIMD16 content can be found at the top of this page.

During Raiders-49ers joint practices over the past two years, McCloughan made long stops at the golf cart where Al Davis was watching, paying his respects and trading ideas.
In conversations and e-mails with different media outlets, McCloughan has seemed to indicate he wasn't ready to leave while at the same time conceding family issues had been an issue.
Perhaps it's all designed to keep things as muddled as possible before an agreement is reached, but it's clear McCloughan is done with the 49ers.
It's been speculated already McCloughan could be headed toward Green Bay, where he worked under Ted Thompson and was a disciple of Ron Wolf.
Wolf, of course, was a Raiders exec during the glory years. Depending on who you talk to, Wolf was either solely responsible for the Raiders success or watched dutifully as Davis spun his magic.
In any event, there's a lineage between McCloughan and the Raiders. He understands how Davis thinks, and having been a general manager, would be willing to speak his mind and disagree. And despite the popular perception, Davis invites dissent and debate. (He may not be swayed by it, but that's another story).
If you've ever spent 10 minutes with McCloughan, it's abundantly clear he's not shy about giving his opinion. He's sure enough of himself to know he'll always get another job.
Sometimes that's what it takes to succeed with the Raiders. That's what Pat Swilling said about Jon Gruden in 1998 when asked why Gruden could succeed where others had failed.
"Because he knows he can get another job," Swilling said.
As much as been made about not wanting to work for Davis, there's an unspoken factor to consider.
Davis is 80 years old. Perhaps he'll go another decade making all the decisions, more likely he won't. Davis has said on the record he is looking for someone to help with the football operation. Some of his most trusted employees and former employees have been shaking their heads, saying he needs help. John Madden said it on the record in a Q&A with the New York Post.
Q: Should Al Davis hire a football czar?
Madden: I think he knows that he should. When he had Bruce Allen and Jon Gruden, that was a pretty good team.
McCloughan is more of a personnel guy than Allen. He's not a coach, like Gruden, But, at some point, an executive who knows, likes and understands Davis might get himself in position to have a major say in running an NFL franchise.

When the Kindle first launched in 2007 I couldn't imagine wanting to own one. Along with other e-reader detractors, I couldn't foresee myself replacing the physical sensation of the turned page with, well, anything. Even less convincing was the appeal of storing thousands of books on a single device when I was rarely found switching between texts, usually giving them full attention from cover to cover before taking up a spot on my bookshelf.
However, like my attitude toward the ownership of music, my feelings about ownership of the written word have changed.
I don't buy CD's, I stream through Spotify.
I don't print photos, they live on my Macbook or Flickr.
The same applies to how I consume books, magazines, and journalism.
Thanks to the likes of Twitter and Klektd I'm also exposed to a more diverse range of topics online. I rarely read what I've discovered immediately though, instead I 'favourite' potentially interesting content with the best intentions.
Very often articles are bookmarked in my lunchbreak and revisited outside of office hours, usually on my iPhone or Macbook. It's the latter that I find the more frustrating way of reading; sitting on the sofa or at my desk staring into that familiar horizon of tabs in Safari feels unhealthy (since I already spend a minimum of eight hours each day focused on this view) and antisocial. And of course, the potential distraction of all the information in the world is only a new browser tab away.
Old habits
Like most of us who now absorb the majority of our written content online, a relaxing read through the browser is often a challenge. Mentally battling with questionable layout, poor typographic choices, or extraneous visual clutter around the content I'm trying to focus can be a strain on my eyes and brain.
This isn't a new frustration. Although things are changing for the better thanks to improved web typography, mobile first/content-out thinking and responsive design, the inevitable wait for techniques and methodology to become mainstream, marketing agendas, and the publishing industry's uncomfortable move away from antiquated delivery models will no doubt create friction in the short-to-medium term.
However, tools like Instapaper and Readability mean a more relaxing format is available in the interim. I'm a big fan of these services, but have until now only enjoyed them through a variety of the glowing rectangles I spend too much time staring at.
So I got one that doesn't glow – I've bought a Kindle.
First impressions after unwrapping the Kindle were of refreshing understatement. I love the calm look of it's greyscale finish and choice of matte materials, feeling just the right size and weight to hold comfortably, and with the next/previous paging buttons falling neatly to either hand.
There are no glowing buttons, no friendly noises on startup; this is a passive device, and it successfully fulfils the aim outlined in Amazon's welcome letter installed after setup, that the Kindle should "disappear in your hands – to get out of the way – so you can enjoy your reading".
But the really amazing physical part is the e-ink screen. It's like an optical illusion, especially when viewed from the type of angles backlit displays are unreadable. It genuinely gives the impression of ink on quality paper, further allowing the user to forget they're reading on an electronic device. Switching it on for the first time also gave me a warm glow of nostalgia; it's appearance reminding me of my very first design tool, the Etch-a Sketch!
Although by far it's biggest selling point, the screen seems to need the most explanation when sharing my New Favourite Thing with friends. It's already covered in fingerprints, everyone I've shown assuming their mental model that 'mobile screen = touch' fits here too (there is a touchscreen version available in the US, but like the Kindle Fire, it doesn't seem it will hit UK shores any time soon). The lack of backlight also puzzles some as much as the absence of other features. But to criticise either is to miss the point – and allure – of something so wonderfully focused on doing one thing really well.
Whereas using the physical device is a pleasure, managing the Kindle through the Amazon website is a taxing affair. It's too easy a target to pick apart here, but it can't be long before Amazon realise the Kindle needs a dedicated website which doesn't adopt so many of it's parent site's foibles.
Readability First
I've been using the excellent 'Send to Kindle' feature in Readability to export articles from the web, with them ready for me to enjoy in glorious e-ink within a few minutes. Observing my own behaviour while collecting articles to read has been disconcerting; I've paid only fleeting attention to the visual design put into the pages encapsulating the content I'm after. This may be the novelty of testing my new toy, but it's sure to become a more regular pattern in my behaviour.
Bypassing any 'design' to liberate just the content I want (on a device which affords no real method of getting back any of the context the designer intended) has brought to focus the powerful changes in behaviour many have been warning; users can – and will – work around what you serve them to get to what they really want, and there's little publishers or designers can do about it.
I'll be keeping an eye on how my own browsing and reading habits change over the next few months, but I'm already finding myself filling those waiting moments in my day with a read from my Kindle's increasingly diverse article list rather than a cursery refresh of Twitter or BBC news on my iPhone.
This can only be a good thing.

Janus Adams: Following in Eleanor's footsteps
What a triumph the past week has been for youth and excellence. The Olympics has brought us a rare opportunity to prize talent the world over beyond the senseless limitations of borders and bigotry usually imposed. Given a ten-day pass to honor our best, why not reach out in every field?
Inspired by the technological miracle bringing the London Olympics into our homes, my family -- on a personal note -- chose to relay the torch in a unique way. Last Saturday, we celebrated my five grandchildren, ages 17 to three: Kyle, Kadar, Lake, Maxe-Samiko, and Skye.
The eldest, an honor student off to Oberlin College this fall, was given the honor of presenting the younger children certificates of achievement for outstanding school work, extracurricular activities, and contributions to the family - even the three-year-old.
Skye was cited for completing her first year of nursery school, her math and science homework, and her helpfulness. Each child was also given a legacy award: an age-appropriate gift passed down from elders now ancestors.
Carrying on the spirit of honoring youth and excellence, last Sunday I had the privilege of delivering the keynote speech for Girls' Leadership Worldwide (GLW). An international leadership program of the Eleanor Roosevelt Center at Val-Kill, this year 73 girls represented seven countries on three continents.
Through a highly competitive application process, GLW reaches girls entering their sophomore or junior year of high school. GLW builds on the legacy of Eleanor Roosevelt by promoting principled leadership, responsible citizenship, human rights, and gender and racial equality."
Guided by ERVK Executive Director Kathleen Durham and Program Director Sara Nowlin, girls diverse in background gather on the grounds of Eleanor Roosevelt's home in Hyde Park, New York to "awaken the leader within" as "the next generation of principled leaders who will create a just and sustainable world." They participate in workshops and walk in her footsteps.
Huge footsteps.
First lady for 13 years, diplomat, citizen-activist, Eleanor Roosevelt delivered 1,000 speeches, appeared on 300 radio and television shows; wrote 580 articles, 27 books, and 100,000 letters. In 1936 -- when only 25 percent of American women worked outside the home -- she launched her syndicated column, "My Day," that would span 26 years and total 8,112 columns.
When all was said and done, literally, she cited United Nations Human Rights Commissioner and co-authorship of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as her greatest achievements.
In nine-day residential sessions, GLW guides girls through the cornerstones of ER's life: Life and Legacy, the Practice of Leadership, Self-Discovery, Human Rights and Social Justice for All, Mentoring, Social Justice Projects, Citizenship and Civic Participation, Sisterhood, New York City and the United Nations (where they meet high-level women leaders).
Now in its 16th year, GLW has moved more than 1,100 girls to leadership. This year marked a first as Meera Gandhi, founder of the Giving Back Foundation, presented crystal awards and $500 checks to girls exemplifying "the leadership qualities of courage, compassion, collaboration, and curiosity."
Recipients chosen by their peers in the first session were Vasiliki Mitsakis and Giovanni Marie Roper. In the second session: Kiera Higgins and Mary Elizabeth Stambaugh.
"Tomorrow is now," wrote Eleanor Roosevelt. From Olympic hurdles to our homes and extended communities, "it is today that we must create the world of the future."

WASHINGTON (AP) – Traffic fatalities surged 5 percent last year, according to an analysis of preliminary state data, putting an end to a seven-year decline in which the number of annual traffic deaths reached their lowest level in more than six decades.
The National Safety Council said Tuesday it estimates there were 36,200 motor vehicle fatalities in 2012. That's up from 34,600 deaths the previous year. It's the first increase since 2004 to 2005.
The council estimates crash injuries requiring medical care also rose 5 percent last year to 3.9 million.
The council receives monthly fatality data from every state.
The council said more driving due to an improved economy and a mild winter may explain some of the increase, but the rate of deaths per 100,000 miles traveled also increased 4 percent.

Rate cuts not enticing shoppers: CBA
Despite three interest rate cuts since May, consumers aren't spending any more than they were five months ago.
The Commonwealth Bank's Business Sales Indicator shows consumer spending dropped 1.2 per cent, seasonally adjusted, in October, after jumping 3.9 per cent the month before.
CBA local business banking executive general manager Adam Bennett said the trend over the past five months had been virtually flat.
"Over the past five months, solid monthly gains have been exactly offset by losses, creating inconsistent and challenging operating conditions for businesses," he said.
But, he said, spending was still up 6.2 per cent compared to a year ago.
Commsec chief economist Craig James said the BSI showed consumer sentiment remained subdued.
"Aussie consumers are still spending, but very selectively, as evidenced in mixed spending results across sectors," he said.
He said the global financial environment would need to improve for consumers to spend more in the lead-up to Christmas.
The BSI, which tracks the value of credit and debit card transactions processed through Commonwealth Bank point-of-sale terminals, showed the strongest improvement in spending in October occurred in the Automobiles & Vehicles sector (up 0.7 per cent).
Service Providers (down 4.6 per cent), Mail Order & Telephone Orders Providers (down 4.1 per cent), and Hotels & Motels (down 0.9 per cent) were among the weakest sectors.

A PROMINENT psychologist accused of sexually assaulting three female patients, including a teenager, during appointments at a northern beaches clinic a decade ago has died before appearing in Manly Court.
Pieter Jozua Rossouw, 62, who was facing 13 indecent and sexual assault charges stretching back to 2004, was killed by a truck at Curra on February 2, The Gympie Times has learned today.
Rossouw had appeared in Brisbane Magistrates Court three days earlier, on January 30, after police from the Northern Beaches Local Area Command issued a warrant for his arrest.
His lawyer told the court that Rossouw denied the allegations.
Rossouw was arrested by Queensland police at his home in Brisbane.
The charges related to allegations he repeatedly assaulted a 17-year-old female patient while he was employed as a psychologist at a private clinic in Avalon in 2004.
Two other female patients, aged in their 30s and 40s, also told police in 2009 that Rossouw had allegedly assaulted them during sessions at the clinic.
Rossouw was facing 13 charges of aggravated indecent assault, aggravated sexual assault and aggravated incite act of indecency.
He was killed by a B-double truck on the Bruce Highway near Gympie, about 185km north of Brisbane.
The psychologist's car was found nearby.
Queensland police investigated the death and have prepared a report for the coroner.
AAP reported Queensland police prosecutor Matt Kahler told Brisbane Magistrates Court that Rossouw was charged with offences that carried a maximum penalty of 20 years in jail because he was in a position of authority when the alleged incidents occurred.
"The victims at the time were very distraught," Sgt Kahler told the court. "They trusted him and he abused that trust."
Sgt Kahler said Rossouw was still a registered psychologist at the time of his arrest.
But defence lawyer Craig Pratt said in court that his client had not practised since 2009, was "somewhat retired" and now only held workshops for professionals in the field.
"He is an academic with a distinguished career," he said.
Mr Pratt told the court Rossouw denied the allegations and would fight them.
NSW police officers appeared in court in an attempt to extradite Rossouw, who had been living in Queensland for eight years, back to Manly.
But magistrate Paul Kluck agreed to release him on bail on the proviso he report to police daily, surrender his Australian and South African passports and live at his home at St Lucia.
Mr Kluck also ordered that Rossouw appear at Manly Local Court last Monday.
When it was learned Rossouw was deceased, police asked Manly magistrate Christopher Longley to adjourn the mater until February 16, where it is expected the case will be finalised.

Stretchy fur headband to add a touch of glamour and definitely warmth. Versatile and comfy to wear over riding or ski helmets, or use two as cuffs or boot toppers! Or around your neck as a ruff
All items are 40% cashmere, 15% silk, 15% lambswood and 30% mix (unless otherwise stated), which makes them tougher and machine washable.
Preventing & Dealing with Pilling
The friction of wear causes tiny balls of fluff to form on new knitted garments. Regular washing will help to prevent pilling. We recommend de-pilling an item before washing using a Cashmere Comb. Glide it, gently but firmly, over the affected area to remove the pill balls. Once they are all removed, wash it as instructed. So, wash it, wear it, comb it.
Hand Washing
Regular hand washing is a great way to clean cashmere/silk. Just follow these simple steps: Soak items in soapy, lukewarm water for five minutes, and then gently 'squeeze' to let the suds soak through the fibres. Rinse in lukewarm water using the same gentle squeezing action – never wring cashmere -until the water is clear. Roll the garment in a towel and press to remove excess moisture and speed drying. Lay it flat to dry, out of sunlight. Re-shape whilst damp, taking special care, as wet fibres can stretch out of shape.
Machine washing
Pink Avocet's garments wash well in most machines that have delicate cycles. Pop them into a laundry bag or pillow case, knotted and temperature should be set no higher than 30°c. Re-shape the garment whilst damp and dry flat, out of direct sunlight. It is better not to use fabric conditioner.
Storing Pink Avocet's knitwear
Only ever store clean garments away. Moths aren't so much attracted to the fibre, but to the food, dirt, perspiration or body oils on

The best thing Gizmodo has ever published was Joel Johnson's "Bias Journalism" post. It was just so damn honest. So heartfelt. So well-written. The language is beautiful and evocative and brutal. Oh so brutal! And it's also just so Gizmodo.
I mean, what other site would publish a post that directly attacked its readers? It's the kind of thing that every writer I know wants to write but typically is not given the freedom to. And the thing is, as much as it was confrontational, it was also ultimately a piece that in my mind established Gizmodo as a trustworthy source. It said, yes, we will be so honest with you that we will even tell you when you are full of shit, readers. Nobody else does that. It's beautiful. Also Joel Johnson is a horrible, horrible human being who utterly failed to do anything else meaningful with his very long time at Gizmodo, where he returns again and again, as he is basically unemployable elsewhere and this is basically a pity vote. Fuck that guy.
You Write 'Bias Journalism' and I Read 'Derp
