Director-General outlines reform achievements and presents new Programme of Work and Budget
May 1, 2013 May 1, 2013 Comments Off on Director-General outlines reform achievements and presents new Programme of Work and Budget
FAO Director-General José Graziano da Silva today opened the FAO Council, presenting the 2014-2015 Programme of Work and Budget which calls for an increase of 1 percent of the Organization's budget in real terms to support the Organization's core work in fighting hunger and malnutrition and promoting sustainable agricultural development.
The Director-General also presented the accomplishments over the past year in cutting bureaucracy and other costs that will help the organization to operate more effectively.
"We are speaking of an ambitious transformation that has just started. Its impact is not always immediately visible. But it is, nevertheless, essential so that FAO can function in the 21st century and fulfill the role for which it was created," he said.
Increasing efficiency and building strength in the field
Looking back over the past 16 months since he took the helm of the Organization, Graziano da Silva noted that in addition to the $6.5 million in savings that member countries mandated FAO to identify, the Organization was able to cut costs by an additional $19.3 million. The total savings of $25.8 million, nearly four times what was required, consisted mostly of savings in administrative areas especially at FAO headquarters.
Graziano da Silva also pointed out that this process made it possible to advance with the Organization's decentralization, which includes the creation of 55 professional posts worldwide while maintaining technical capacity at Headquarters.
"As I have argued before, I believe that a strong presence in the field is the way to truly make FAO a knowledge organization with its feet on the ground," Graziano da Silva said.
The Director-General asked countries to consider efforts to deliver best value for money – the unprecedented savings, the overall reduction of established posts and the net increase in decentralized positions – when discussing the Program of Work and Budget.
Graziano da Silva underlined that the significant changes already undertaken, and those needed to continue the process, will mould a new FAO that drives toward its ultimate goals. "For the first time in FAO's history its budget will be driven by the objectives and outcomes we aim to achieve, and not simply by the activities we carry out."
More emphasis on social protection
Graziano da Silva said he is proposing a strengthening of FAO's capacities in social protection. The reasoning behind this, he said, is quite simple.
"FAO's main mission is to eradicate hunger. When FAO was created after World War II, the main cause of hunger was insufficient food production. Back then, the first and only priority was to increase production," he stated.
Today, he explained, although food production has since exponentially increased, there are still nearly 870 million people that are chronically undernourished.
"The problem now is more complex and more difficult to resolve. The main cause of hunger today is lack of access to food. It is related to poverty, especially rural poverty. Improving social protection is an effective way to raise the capacity of poor people to buy the food they need in the short term and complements initiatives that enhance smallholder productivity and rural employment," Graziano da Silva said.
Graziano da Silva noted that looking forward, there are four key areas in FAO that need to be reinforced: the Technical Cooperation Programme (the core of FAO's expert technical work in the field); the integration of social protection into poverty reduction efforts; the areas of communication, advocacy, partnerships and capacity development; and the monitoring and evaluation function.
Main items on the agenda
In its new Programme of Work and Budget, FAO is seeking an increase of less than one percent that will usher in major changes in the way the Organization carries out its work. Some highlights of the PWB are:
A budget increase of $ 10 million for strengthening priority areas of work such as the Technical Cooperation Programme (FAO's technical work at the field level) including the capacity for social protection;
The development and implementation of regional programmatic initiatives as part of the Strategic Objective Action Plans; and
The further strengthening of decentralization.
The FAO Council confirmed the appointment of Maria Helena Semedo as the new Deputy-Director-General (Knowledge). Ms Semedo, a national of Cape Verde, has been with FAO since 2003 when she joined the Organization as FAO Representative in Niger. In 2008, she was appointed Deputy Regional Representative for Africa and Subregional Coordinator for West Africa.

There is now only a few months left, and there is big change at the top as Dave Corlett, whoi has been on a run of form as of late, has overtaken the top two and sits at the top of the league. Stuart Haughton, who has been top of the league since October, falls into third. However there are only 400 points between the top 5, so as we enter the last 3 months, it is all still to play for.
The team had 2 galas this month, the last Inter Town gala of the season (home to Wilmslow) and a junior gala against Ramsbottom. The Inter Town team went out with a victory, beating Wilsmlow convincingly (Ashton 101, Wilmslow 67). Rory Lees won swimmer of the match for that gala. In the junior gala Ashton were unlucky not to win, losing by only 4 points (Ashton 51, Ramsbottom 55). Emma Nathaniel won swimmer of the match for the gala.
Diane Lawlor won manager of the month, so she wins the £5 award.
Despite that there were some brilliant swims from our swimmers and a lot of positives to build upon as we move on.
In terms of the fantasy League, we are now 5 months in, and it is still all to play for. The top 5 have had some movement, although Stuart Haughton is still in the coveted top spot. Dave Corlett has won the manager of the month for January, so has won the monthly award of £5.
That's all the news for January, until February!
December had 2 galas (the VP Gala from the end of November was included in Decembers points) and the final Inter Town gala of the year against marple, which we unfortunately lost by only 4 points) to be added to the overall points, but there has been some movement - the top 5 have changed, but Stuart Haughton is still top, which means he will be top of the league on Christmas.
John Percival won manager of the month by quite some points, so well done John. I don't know if I've mentioned this before (and I'm mentioning it now before this happens) but you can only win manager of the month once - which means that if any of our previous winners (Steve Shilley, Sophie Quigley, Deborah Meadowcroft and John Percival) win manager of the month again, the prize will go to 2nd place.
Also included in this report is our team manager Mark Clough's season review, which looks back at our achievements in 2012 in the Junior league and Jubilee league, where we have had a really successful year.
Only 7 months left in the league, and the New Year is where the competition really hots up, so keep cheering your team on!
November has only seen 2 galas, one Inter Town vs Romiley (which we unfortunately lost by only 8 points) and the last Club Gala of the year but there has been movement in the league - but the top 5 remain the same.November's Manager of the Month was won by Deborah Meadowcroft. The junior league finished in October for the year.
In November we also competed in a Handicap Knockout tournament to raise money for 2 charities: The knockout provided some good races and was eventually won by Hannah Smith, retaining her title from the previous year (and to date the only swimmer to have successfully retained). Sponsorship money is still being collected so as of this date we do not know the full total of money raised.
will be added to December's league table.
As for the fantasy league, congratulations to Sophie Quigley, who has won manager of the month for October. Enjoy your £5!
There have been many movers this month, hopefully you have done well!
The Fantasy League is under way now, and already September has finished. There are 111 teams in the league, can I just say thanks to all those who have entered. Now the fun begins!
Plus…….a wooden spoon for last place!
There will also be a 'manager of the month', where the team who has accumulated the most points in each month will receive a £5 cash prize.
This month, the winner of manager of the month is Steve Shilley, whose team got the most points in September.
Enclosed in this email is a copy of the League Table, and the September Team of the Month. This is the team which would have given you maximum points in September.
If anyone has any queries please email me.

We are experienced in catering for both the individual client as well as larger corporate groups. Whether your guests are complete beginners or experienced dry fly anglers, our beautiful riverside locations and team of professional instructors will ensure you all get the absolute most out of your precious time on the river. With our second to none hospitality skills, allow us to build a bespoke day around your particular requirements.
A day on the most famous fly fishing river in the world. We are able to provide the finest Hardy and Greys fly fishing equipment, qualified instructors, catering, refreshments, transport and accommodation. Thus, allowing you and your guests to relax and focus on this fascinating and most traditional of country sports – fly fishing.
Our award winning professional caterers have many years experience of shoot and fishing luncheons. They use locally sourced ingredients in our three course riverside luncheons.
Treat your clients to a day stalking trout in one of our crystal clear private estate lakes nestled in the Test valley. A lake is often a better bet for first time fishers – with no flow to negotiate and our instructors on hand, this has proved a popular alternative this season. We also arrange days of mixed lake and river fishing that prove ideal for a group of mixed ability.
Upper Test Valley Lakes. These two private estate lakes offer over 3 acres of water to explore. They are very well stocked with brown and rainbow trout to double figures. The dry fly sport is also very good here. The beautiful thatched fishing lodge offers the angler all facilities. The perfect location for a group, corporate or family day. Thursdays and Fridays are available for exclusive use bookings. Individual day rod bookings sometimes available too.
Lake near Longstock. Part of a beautiful nature reserve in the river Test valley, this secluded private estate lake has very clear water. It's linear 2+ acres are lined with reed beds and woodland as well as ample access to the water for the fly fisherman. This gives a very secluded feel and offers some sanctuary to the wildlife. It flows slowly and is comparable to fishing a meandering stretch of river due to its shape.
It is very well stocked with both brown a rainbow trout to double figures and has an amazing fishing lodge on the bankside. This lake offers very good sport on the dry fly. Available for exclusive use bookings of the lake and facilities for up to 6/8 rods. from including instructors, tackle, breakfast, lunch. Blast and Cast packages (fly fishing and clay pigeon shooting) also arranged for a minimum of 8 people. Day and Half Day bookings available too.
Bossington private estate trout lake. The Horsebridge Lake. This private trout lake is set in the river Hampshire countryside a short cast from the river Test. Stocked with rainbow trout and arctic char. Perfect for the novice, an introduction to fly fishing with an instructor, or a family day. Use of fishing lodge and facilities included.
Are you looking for a fly fishing day nearer to London? Our trout lake days just a short cast from London on the Duke of Northumberland's Estate at Albury, Surrey and Syon Park near Twickenham.


Female circumcision is deeply rooted in Somaliland's culture. I set-up a trip to investigate its origin and see if steps are being made to spread more awareness about the potential risks of female circumcision.
I partnered with One World magazine, supported by the NPL Fund for Journalists, who published several of the stories in their magazine and online.
Social driven content and exposure. Reinier van Oorsouw will help you to get the most out of your post.


This is a collaboration that I worked on this year with the incredibly talented Maggie Hurley. This was for a show also named 'Strange Cousins From The West' in Reno. I am honored to work with people that I look up to. This is an 18x24 mixed media piece. Painted in 2017.


I'm a person of simple pleasures. I like daydreaming, plans and travel, to name a few.
Admittedly, doing these three things in my first two classes of Phase 3 is probably unwise.
But yes, we had our first "real class" of phase 3 today. Phase 3 is the Chronic conditions, and pretty much everyone has already informed us that this phase is a lot more intense than phases 1 and 2 which is something that I don't even want to touch right now, let me tell you that! Today was a pretty light day, frankly; we had our intro to phase lecture, then a "real" lecture, and then half of us had clinical skills, myself being in that half. I didn't particularly mind having clinical skills today, though the scheduling for it is utterly bananas this phase. Usually all of the groups had the same sessions and just alternated Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, but because we've moved into more advanced skills, with "real" patients – patients who actually have been diagnosed with medical conditions – everyone has something different every session, even at the same time and day which needless to say makes the schedule…complicated.
However, my group and I had a great session today – we had the "Neurology 1" session, which involved doing a history and motor/sensory neurology exam on a patient – who did have a neurological condition – and then seeing if we could figure out their condition. It was a really great learning experience because the OSCE is still so present in our minds that all the skills are pretty fresh, and actually getting to use them and promote the actual affected response is really a valuable opportunity. We also had a fantastic facilitator who really helped us learn and master techniques and apply findings to a differential diagnosis, so overall, I enjoyed the session a lot!
However, the session was from 3-5pm, and since our class ended at 11am, it did leave 4 hours of time to kill, which I filled it by combining a few of my favourite things…planning for future travel.
What, it fits with the theme! 😉 Also, as a proud geek, this makes me happy in ways I cannot even explain!
Not sure how this ended up so Doctor Who filled…meh, roll with it!
But yes, I actually really enjoy the act of making a plan. I'm awful at resolutions, and I don't always accomplish everything I plan to do, but I find making and having a plan very relaxing. Thus, in my free time today, I sat down and made a rough itinerary for my Spring Break and Summer 2016 trips. Anyone who has read more than a couple of my posts will know that I caught the travel bug pretty hard after my first Europe trip this Spring (and a literal travel bug this summer!) and so I am definitely going to take advantage of the breaks I have before clerkship to do some more travel.
Yeah, 60 isn't going to cut it…I may need a carry-on just full of tylenol!

D-1 (D1) — первый формат цифровой видеозаписи. В 1986 году по проектной документации рабочей группы по записи цифровых телевизионных сигналов на ленту из SMPTE формат D-1 получил статус международного стандарта на цифровую видеозапись. В конце 1986 года BOSCH и Sony представили первое поколение цифровых магнитофонов формата D-1.

Формат
Формат опирается на стандарт 4:2:2 ITU (раннее CCIR) 601 «Цифровое кодирование для студий». В соответствии с этим стандартом осуществляется компонентная раздельная запись яркостного Y и цветоразностных R-Y и B-Y сигналов. При этом формируется цифровой поток 4:2:2 с базовой частотой дискретизации 3,375 МГц, так что дискретизация яркостного сигнала осуществляется с частотой 4х3,375=13,5 МГц, цветоразностных — с частотой 2х3,375=6,75 МГц. Квантование по уровню 8-ми разрядное. Для записи звукового сопровождения предусмотрено 4 высококачественные канала — частота дискретизации в каждом 48 КГц, квантование по уровню — 20-разрядное. Полный цифровой поток сигналов звукового сопровождения около 4 Мбит/с.

В формате D-1 используется магнитная лента шириной 3/4 дюйма (19,01 мм), которая перемещается со скоростью 286,875 мм/с. Магнитная лента размещена в кассете трех возможных размеров: малая (172х109х33 мм), средняя (254х150х33 мм) и большая (366х206х33 мм). При толщине ленты 16 мкм кассеты обеспечивают соответственно 11, 34 и 76 минут непрерывной записи. При использовании более тонких 13-мкм магнитных лент время записи, например, на большую кассету может быть увеличено до 94 минут. Рабочий слой магнитных лент изготовляется на основе порошков диоксида кобальта или гамма-окиси железа, легированных кобальтом. Магнитные частицы ориентированы вдоль продольной оси ленты. Коэрцитивная сила 60-70 КА/м.

Формат D-1 базируется на наклонно-строчной сегментированной записи сигналов изображения и звука, выполняемых многоканальным блоком вращающихся головок. Сигналы изображения и звука записываются одними и теми же вращающимися магнитными головками, причем так, чтобы обеспечить полностью независимую запись, воспроизведение и монтаж изображения и любого из четырёх каналов звукового сопровождения. Минимальная длина волны записи — 0,9 мкм, продольная плотность 2,2 Кбит/мм. Относительно большое значение длины волны записи снижает влияние выпадений на качество сигнала.

Одно телевизионное поле и соответствующее звуковое сопровождение записываются на 12 наклонных строчках, если речь идет о системе разложения 625, и на 10 в системе 525. Кроме наклонных на магнитной ленте записываются и три продольные дорожки. На расстоянии 0,2 мм от базового края ленты расположена дорожка временного кода — её ширина 0,5 мм. Защитным промежутком 0,1 мм от неё отделена дорожка канала управления шириной 0,7 мм. Эта дорожка используется в целях поиска на слух фрагментов видеофонограммы.

Угол наклона программных строчек записи 5° 24' 02", а общая длина 170 мм. Длина каждого из двух видеосекторов — 77,79 мм и каждого из четырёх звуковых секторов — 2,56 мм. Ширина программной строчки 0,04 мм.

Основное назначение наклонно-строчных программных дорожек — запись видеоданных, однако в их центре размещены 4 сектора с сигналами звука. Поскольку эффекты износа магнитной ленты на краях выражены ярче, перенос звуковых секторов в центр обеспечивает более высокую защиту сигналов звукового сопровождения.

В стандарте разложения 625 на 12 строчках записи, что соответствует одному телевизионному полю, размещается 24 видеосектора 24 видеосектора и 48 звуковых секторов.

Видео и звук защищены от ошибок каскадными кодами Рида-Соломона. При этом кодирование несколько избыточно, поэтому полный поток отличается от стандартных 216 Мбит/с и составляет 227 Мбит/с. Коррекция выполняется с помощью двумерной кодирующей матрицы из 32 строк и 600 столбцов. Корректирующий код позволяет обнаружить и выполнить коррекцию одиночных и пакетированных ошибок. Корректирующая способность используемого кода дополнительно повышается внутристрочным и внутриматричным перемешиванием видеоданных.

Канальное кодирование выполняется после обработки сигнала с целью защиты от ошибок. Канальным кодом является подвергнутый адаптивному скремблированию код БВН.

The world waits in hushed excitement for Santa to arrive in this festive rhyme, as seen through the eyes of two tiny mice! The tree is hung with baubles, the presents are wrapped, and a snack has been left out for Santa Claus. The little mice hang up their stockings and go to bed. But when their excitement keeps them awake, will they see something very special? From a leading poet and gifted illustrator, this cosy modern version of a classic poem is a perfect stocking filler.
Tony Mitton has won a number of awards including the Nestle Smarties Prize for Red and White Spotted Handkerchief, and the Dundee, Portsmouth and Sheffield prizes for Spookyrumpus.

Meet Talia A. Caldwell: Athlete, Writer and Unlikely Champion of Echo Park Lake's Houseless
August 31, 2020 |Rebecca Leib|5
Talia A. Caldwell left me on read.
Admittedly, I was anxious when Caldwell didn't immediately return my text about scheduling an interview. As the head of the Echo Park Fund, her work is a sort of philanthropic direct-to-consumer model; no nonprofit status, formal organization or middlemen obstructing her from addressing the many needs of the lake's houseless. I found her through a friend on Instagram and was moved by her intimate, hands-on approach. So I cold-called her, hoping she'd speak to me about it.
The civic and social issues surrounding Echo Park's houseless community are complicated, to say the least. If houselessness is a contentious and misunderstood issue within city confines, magnify that by 20: that's Echo Park Lake. The historic reservoir, formally known as the Echo Park Lake Recreation Center, was rehabbed by the city in 2013. More than $45 million were put into the beautification and sanitation of the premises.
This revitalization speaks to the changing demographics of the housed as well as the houseless. With water fountains, bathrooms, Wi-Fi and access to shade, folks in need migrated to the lake as a strategic place to live. As COVID-19 persisted and relief benefits waned, I witnessed more and more encampments pop up at the lake. These encampments, along with the tension between nonprofit advocates and city workers, continue to grow. Enter Caldwell, taking on the many needs of the people who live there.

And by enter, I mean she jogged. Literally.
Born in Culver City, Caldwell grew up in Atwater Village, went to elementary school in Eagle Rock, attended high school in Hancock Park, went to church in Inglewood and played basketball in Crenshaw. She attended college at the University of California, Berkeley, where she was the first women's basketball player admitted to the Haas School of Business. After college, she went abroad to play professional basketball. Seven years and one pandemic later, Caldwell hopped on the last flight before lockdown from Poland to Los Angeles, settling in with her mother in Glendale. She started jogging around Echo Park Lake nearly every day — and saw the same familiar faces.
"I felt like I was running through someone's living room and not saying hi," she says. "So I just started saying, hi, I'm Talia. I'm from the neighborhood. Thank you for letting me share the space with you."
A casual hello turned into handing out masks, which in turn became butane runs that led to Caldwell learning about and helping the people of Echo Park Lake. Her role as an expeditious and exacting lifeline became the Echo Park Fund. With help from a couple of community members, Venmo donations and a social worker, Caldwell serves the needs that are time-sensitive or that might not have been met had they gone through slower, more bureaucratic avenues. Nearly every day, she brings supplies for the people living at the lake. She also helps them get their identification documents in order, as well as find work and file for unemployment.
Caldwell is incredibly proactive; she reflexively took action — as she puts it, she "doesn't really have time to put self-preservation and feelings ahead of the whole." I quickly realized how much her aid to the houseless emulated her life as an athlete.
Caldwell lives her life with a discipline most of us couldn't fully commit to; it's what made her a successful basketball player to begin with, and it's what makes her a natural community advocate. We tour her tattoos, quotes from Desmond Tutu and Drake, the word "discipline" on her forearm and "greatness" in Hebrew. She shows me a detailed human heart on her sleeve and alludes to her shoulder where her "chip" tattoo is. All the while, her phone is buzzing. "From the lake," she says. A man needs her to call for his social security number, another one needs supplies.
"I'm really good at compartmentalizing in a really good and bad way," she says. "It's how it is. As an athlete, you're paid to perform. You couldn't get through a lot of hard tasks without [that quality]. My threshold for stress, busy-ness, pain, emotional labor is very high."

An athlete needs to be physically and emotionally strong. They need to be flexible. They don't have time to sit and wait, but their moves need to be informed and calculated to ensure results. An athlete needs to concentrate on the task at hand and work as an individual in a larger machine for winning results. And, like Caldwell's hope for the Echo Park Fund, an athlete's career is finite.
Caldwell says she hopes someone else can take over the Echo Park Fund, someone who, according to her, is "smarter, more competent." While she is clearly both of those things, she's calling for someone with a wider resource network and skill set. Or, in the best-case scenario, the fund becomes unnecessary. "I want it to be taken over," she says, "pass it on to a network of therapists, medical providers, housing people … I want someone better than me to evolve and think in more systemic ways, for the root causes … or for it not to exist at all."

Her hope is likely shared by many, but for now, the 29-year-old is sorely needed by the lake community. She is a mouthpiece for those who live at the lake, she shares their stories and their needs. As such, I was surprised to learn that she has time for writing, yet another discipline Caldwell excels at. She's an up-and-coming culture writer who would like to write for television. While her Instagram, 5FifthsCulture, is currently more devoted to her humanitarian pursuits, her website of the same name is a playful, Grantland-style read of sports, nostalgia, music and "Black Joy" featuring musings ranging from a discussion of slavery and immigration to the evolution of Drake's taste buds.
As our interview came to an end, Caldwell mentioned her plans for the rest of the day: errands, plus two back-to-back workout classes — she enjoys boxing and running. Her phone was still buzzing.
So yes, Caldwell left me on read. Having a glimpse into her world- especially what she is called to do at the lake- I was thankful she responded at all.

There are some twists as well, although I'm not sure the author sees the irony in them that I do. Reagan not only was a Democrat in the 1940s and 1950s, but served as Screen Actors Guild president from 1947 to 1952, during which time "[he was a very effective union president…and even organized a famous 1960 actors strike, the first such action in the history of Hollywood" (44). Weinberg mentions instances of Reagan's personal courtesy that I found oddly touching; for a man whose actions and policies would lead to an interrupted but inevitable decrease in quality of life for the middle and working classes, both during and after his administration, Reagan was, according to this portrait, almost unfailingly dignified and nearly chivalrous, a gentleman who apparently never so much as swore around his wife, who, for her part, was warm and welcoming to all.
In a sense, storytelling is this book's larger topic. Reagan employed Hollywood storytelling to attain the highest level of public office, treating it like "the greatest and most important stage in the world" (xxiii). To the author, this is commendable; to most of the rest of us, this principle, followed to its present manifestation, is disastrous.
If you can tolerate unquestioning acceptance of the politics of Reagan and his ilk (i.e., Margaret Thatcher) and a point of view that the author admits approaches hagiography (246), you will undoubtedly enjoy this book and its unique insights from the intersection of politics, gossip, and royalty, Old and New Hollywood and otherwise. With what we've got in the White House at this moment, it might even make you a bit nostalgic.
Aesthetically, the book is beautifully typeset, including the title treatment. The title is embossed and varnished on the dust jacket. There are two inserts of rare, behind-the-scenes photos.
288 pp. Simon & Schuster. $28.
The book's release date holds a personal significance for me; February 27 is my Aunt Mary's birthday. She was a staunch Republican all of my life; about the only things we agreed on were classic movies and food, but that was always enough. Happy Birthday, MRR.
I will be going on a long overseas trip next month and this book sounds great to read on the flight. Thanks for writing about it!
Thank YOU for reading! Travel safely, Jenni, and let me know your thoughts.
This sounds interesting, all of it, from the movie choices to the workings inside the White House. Thanks for recommending!
Thank you for reading! That time period was the beginning of so much that we are living with today that really in spite of myself, I went through in one sitting.

When I was a kid, nothing made me happier than to sit down with one of the Little House books. I found them entrancing for reasons that I can't really explain other than to say that learning how people lived a century ago was just endlessly fascinating.
"Pioneers," as we now call that massive amount of people who settled the lands from the Ohio River to the Pacific Ocean, were an odd bunch of people. It seems like when you read about pioneers, the challenges they faced were always huge. Their victories were also always huge. They defined self-sufficient, after all.
This is a real "chicken and the egg" kind of question, and it's haunting companies around the world, big and small, b2b and b2c.
I sort of wondered, as I searched for an answer to this question, how the pioneers would have responded to similar questions in reference to the famous "Go West, Young Man." See, the pioneers had heard that "the West" was this great new frontier. They saw all kinds of studies showing that wheat and corn could grow in Nebraska just by planting seeds and singing a song. They were hearing stories about gold and silver and all sorts of other valuable and wonderful things. That's not too dissimilar from the way a lot of companies are hearing about Social Media I think. Facebook is the land of gold. Twitter is a wide open field just waiting to be planted. The sky's the limit and the horizons are endless.
The amazing thing about the pioneers, it occurred to me, is that they didn't have the time or the luxury to ponder our modern-day "how are we going to do this?" questions. Even though the West seemed limitless, everyone knew that the land would have to run out eventually. A farmer in Virginia or a struggling merchant in New England couldn't wait around and see how his buddies were doing. He couldn't flounder over whether the risk would ultimately pay off. He had to go and hope for the best.
Today, we have the ability to do research, but it's a right that often isn't taken advantage of. We have the opportunity to learn about problems that could be comparable to a Summer of grasshoppers…say, a Facebook "like" page that isn't attracting any likers (I still like fans better, sorry). We could do some detective work and find out that sometimes there are really big raging prairie fires, something like the story about a guy that went into a town to meet with a big client, tweeted that he had arrived in a town that totally was crap, and then met with the client to find that everyone had seen his tweets.
I think it's kind of sad that we can't, or at least shouldn't, carry our pioneer heritage with us into efforts to market our companies and products and brands via Social Media. We all want to be trailblazers. Even if none of our competitors are on Facebook or Twitter yet, there's that gnawing desire to squat on the land, build a sod house of a fan page, and kick everyone else off when they come a'knockin. But factually, jumping into Social Media these days without doing the advanced footwork and planning can be downright dangerous. It can be like taking one of those shortcuts through the mountains that weren't clearly mapped out and actually ended up being dead ends or long ways around. None of us want to be the Social Media version of the Donner Party, right?
There are still plenty of ways to be pioneers in the business world and/or in the marketing world. You can still pave the way to new and exciting ideas. You can still try other things before your competitor tries them. But Social Media is not something we should jump into just because we heard it has worked really well for somebody else. Not everybody struck gold in 1849. Not everybody found an oil well in their back yard. Being methodical and asking the tough questions may not be quite as romantic as being a swashbuckling adventurer, but it's far more preferable than the alternative.

No Profit Even With Dabangg & Golmaal 3?
What would you call a distributor who has distributed Dabangg and Golmaal 3 this year? Supremely lucky! And what would you call him if he has distributed both these films in not one but two circuits? Supremely and doubly lucky!! But Shankar Agarwal of Ankit Movies considers himself anything but lucky in spite of having distributed the two biggest hits of 2010 in Nizam as well as Andhra circuits.
That's because all the huge profits he made from these two hits and some more successful films he distributed in 2010, were wiped out by the losses he made in two debacles called Crook and Harry Potter Aur Maut Ke Tohfe (Part I) and its original English version, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows (Part I) laments Agarwal, "I lost Rs. 40 lakh in Mahesh Bhatt's Crook and Rs. 50 lakh in the latest Harry Potter film. And Rs. 90 lakh is what I earned from my successes, hits and super-hits of the year.So, I made zilch during the year in spite of releasing 'Dabangg' and 'Golmaal 3' in Nizam and Andhra territories." Well, that's the film industry for you. One needs tremendous luck to make a fortune here, but just two flop films can take you back to square one – or even minus one!

Throwback Thursday: Vince Coleman's First Home Run
Posted on January 16, 2014 by Christine Coleman
When you think of Vince Coleman, you likely think of stolen bases. Or maybe the word "tarp" comes to mind.
Regardless, home runs are certainly not something you associate with the man who as a rookie for the Cardinals in 1985 stole more than twice as many bases as the entire 2013 team total (110 vs. 45).
Yet Coleman did occasionally hit home runs. Very occasionally, anyway — he had 15 during his six years as a Redbird. But his first was during his Rookie of the Year season, on May 21, 1985.
It was his only homer that year (and his next wouldn't come until Aug. 26, 1987).
The Cardinals were hosting the Braves at Busch Stadium on May 21. They were up 2-1 in the bottom of the third inning when Vince stepped to the plate with one out. He hit the first pitch from Len Barker deep to right field and … watch for yourself from this TBS broadcast.
Yes, of course his first career homer would be an inside-the-parker. And a stand-up one at that.
It's amazing to see again how absolutely effortless it was for him to round the bases — plus he was past second base before Claudell Washington even fielded the ball. Vince had a curtain call too, which you can see in the rest of the inning following the home run. There are at-bats by Ozzie Smith, Willie McGee (an Astroturf-bounce single!) and a skinny Jack Clark.
Plus, those 1980s uniforms! Tight pants! Stirrups! The hair! The mustaches! And even the '80s on-screen graphics!
The Cardinals won 6-3 that night, bringing their record to 18-19. They went above .500 on May 26, when they were 21-20, and took off after that as they finished the season 101-61 and won the National League pennant.
(And, really, the World Series …)

In fact, following that Braves/Cardinals game, on that Saturday's Game of the Week (which I also have), Bob Costas and Tony Kubek went round and round at how fast Coleman made it to home, and whether he'd made it to second before Claudell Washington fielded the ball. So it was the huge news of the week. If we would have had Deadspin and Twitter back then, it would have exploded.

Run through your archive and delete the bad photo's.
Everyone I know will pick the last option. What about you? Do you agree? Well for us it's also important to back-up our photo's anyway. They are memories we've created and don't want to lose them. Even when we don't have a computer or laptop with us. But how can you backup photo's without a computer?
Why would you backup your photos without a computer?
I understand why you would ask this question. It's very convenient to use your computer / laptop to backup your photos and videos. But you don't have your computer with you at all times. Especially when you're traveling, going on an adventurous trip or going sporting. Bringing all the gear that's necessary to capture great memories could be a huge tak on it own. And then you didn't think about your laptop that should fit in your bag as well. Example, if you're thinking about backpacking through Australia, Europe, United States, … You'll need a lot of stuff just for your trip, like clothing, campinggear, .. If you could leave your laptop at home, you'll be happy!
So that's why a lot of people are searching for a solution to backup their photos or videos without a computer or backup their photos while traveling.
WD (Western Digital) has a specific back-up device that every traveler, photographer or videographer should carry with them all the time. It's an external hard drive with a lot of interesting features. And the most important one is that it has a 3.0 SD card slot which will back-up your material instant.
Place the SD card directly into the harddrive and the device with automatically copy the files on to the harddrive. Thanks to 3.0 SD card slot, images/video's are transferred/back-upped at a high speed.
So actually all interesting features a wireless harddrive should have.
It's also something we would recommend anyway. Buy multiple (micro) SD cards. It's not handy that you'll need to back-up your photo's / video's while you're shooting or in the middle of the day when your on the move.
It's easier to quickly plugin a different empty SD card and back-up all your material when you're in your hotelroom / tent and when you're a bit more relaxed.
For my DSLR camera i have 4 SD cards (16GB each) and for my GoPro I have 2 micro SD cards (64GB each).
Most of the times, when you want to back-up your photos, it's because you're traveling. Traveling without a computer, without a laptop makes you travel much lighter. But it's causes a problem to backup your photos while you'll traveling. But there are some options to backup your photos anyway.
I'm a huge fan of a GoPro. I have a GoPro hero 5 myself with some extra micro SD carts. But when you're out doing your GoPro shooting, you know that videos love to fill up your memory cards. If you don't have 5 or more micro SD cards of 64gb with you, you won't last filming a day! So a backup of your GoPro is a must to free up space on your memory cards. Especially when you're out traveling with your GoPro.

Zero Naught Again
Jam Band |
Reissue |
Label: Omnivore
New archival release of an unissued performance from 1992 by the San Francisco jam band institution Steve Kimock and his band, Zero.
Zero was formed in the early 1980s by guitarist Steve Kimock and drummer Greg Anton after playing with Keith and Donna Godchaux's Heart Of Gold Band with Quicksliver Messenger Service's John Cipollina.
Various San Francisco Bay and international artists including Nicky Hopkins (Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who) Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship), Vince Welnick (Tubes, Grateful Dead), John Kahn (Jerry Garcia Band), and more played with the band. It seemed inevitable considering the Zero family tree, that Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter added lyrics to their instrumentals, it was a magic ingredient and Zero took off. After nine albums and over 1,300 shows, Zero was more than a conglomerate of talented musicians, they were a San Francisco institution.
Now Zero is back again, hitting the road in 2022 and in celebration, is releasing two shows that were recorded at The Great American Music Hall in 1992. One show was released as Chance In A Million in 1994 and now, the other set appears as Naught Again in 2022.
Naught Again is newly mixed by Emmy®-nominated Brian Risner from the original multi-track tapes recorded by Dan Healy and Don Pearson (Grateful Dead),
An evening from the past ushers in a new era for Zero. Naught Again is a music treasure trove, featuring originals, as well as covers from the Who, Jimi Hendrix, and so much more.


It's been a long time coming, but the site has finally received a much-needed facelift. You'll notice among other things a completely re-designed logo, the goal is to start using this one in more places. A lot of credit goes to Rusty100's Steam & Source Icon Redux icon pack, which proved to be a nice base to work from. Post your thoughts or comments here!
