New Music Soon? Shakira’s 11th Album Is Coming Together

Mike Wass | August 24, 2016 7:07 pm
Shakira Starts Work On New Album
Shakira starts work on 11th LP with long-time collaborator Luis Fernando Ochoa.

Shakira surprised fans today (August 24) by tweeting a cute video from the studio. The superstar, who has been chipping away at album 11 since March, shakes her notoriously honest hips to an upbeat track with sexy Latin influences. If this is any indication of what’s to come, the project is more Sale El Sol than her genre-jumping self-titled LP. Which is fine by me. She looks incredibly happy in the video and could surprise us with something new by the end of the year.

The 39-year-old confirmed that she was back at work earlier this year by posting a pic with long-time collaborator Luis Fernando Ochoa. The pair first worked together on Shakira’s breakthrough LP Pies Descalzos way back in 1995 and have collaborated on every album since with the exception of 2009’s She Wolf. They usually pen Spanish-language material, which means a bilingual project is highly likely. Watch her cute studio video below.

World Energy Outlook

The gold standard of energy analysis

Earth from orbit
About the WEO

Published every year based on objective data and dispassionate analysis, The World Energy Outlook (WEO) provides critical analysis and insights on trends in energy demand and supply, and what they mean for energy security, environmental protection and economic development.

The first WEO was published in 1977 and it has been an annual publication since 1998. The detailed projections are generated by the World Energy Model, a large-scale simulation tool, developed at the IEA over a period of more than 20 years that is designed to replicate how energy markets function. It covers the whole energy system, allowing for a range of analytical perspectives from global aggregates to elements of detail, such as the prospects for a particular technology or the outlook for end-user prices in a specific country or region.

There is no single story about the future of global energy and no long-term IEA forecast for the energy sector. The WEO uses a scenario-based approach to highlight the key choices, consequences and contingencies that lie ahead, and to illustrate how the course of the energy system might be affected by changing some of the key variables, chief among them the energy policies adopted by governments around the world.

Case Studies for Exploring Interfaith Cooperation: Classroom Tools

Introduction and Purpose

Even as public discourse about religious belonging, identity, and diversity in the United States remains divisive, such tensions can seem remote in a classroom full of relatively tolerant American college students, many of whom are often uncomfortable talking about religion. This is largely due to the fact that students have not had the opportunity to talk about religion or religious ideas outside the private sphere, if at all. For faculty interested in teaching courses that touch on topics such as religious diversity, pluralism, or interfaith relations, it can be challenging to help students see how public discourse around religious issues relates to them and to provide meaningful learning opportunities in which they can imagine themselves as participants in this discourse.

Case studies offer one interactive pedagogical method for engaging students around the real-life challenges of religious diversity. Using case studies to explore interreligious tensions or cooperation provides an opportunity for students to identify the complex ways that religious diversity plays out in a given situation, analyze the responses of various actors in such situations, and demonstrate application of theories they have been learning about to concrete situations. As such, students’ responses to the case studies can serve as a formative assessment tool to measure student learning.

This toolkit provides several case studies and a guide for use in the classroom. Inspired by the case studies developed by Harvard University’s Pluralism Project (, these cases aim to put students at the center of decision making and problem solving, asking them to consider their own agency in contributing to religious pluralism. Researched and written by Karla Suomala, Associate Professor of Religion at Luther College, and developed in partnership with Interfaith Youth Core, these cases are a complimentary pedagogical tool to use alongside lectures or presentations. These cases will fit quite naturally in courses touching on religion in America, interfaith topics, religious diversity, or introductory religion courses, but will also be useful in courses beyond religious studies that include a unit or focus on religious diversity or pluralism.

10 Things You Don’t Know About Facebook (But You Should)

10 Things You Don’t Know About Facebook (But You Should)

Browse This Page
Share via

Long long ago, there was Orkut, Hi5 and MySpace. Somehow, none of them stuck quite the way Facebook did. In fact, Mark Zuckerberg’s brainchild has done way more than just stick around, it changed the way we connect with people.

It’s not only for frivolous stalking. Even if you’d like to quit the website, you can’t. How else would you log onto your Soundcloud, Pinterest, Tumblr or Spotify? Facebook’s made sure its got us entwined in a tight web.

Even though we’ve being using it for years, there are certain facts about Facebook none of us know. Here is the list of things you should know about Facebook, which you probably don’t:

1. You Can Calculate the Time You’ve Wasted on Facebook.

Yes, it’s addictive. And yes, most of the time you’re wasting hours checking out who your ex-girlfriend is hanging out with these days. I think we all can agree that we can survive without the information Facebook gives us. But since we’ve already established that quitting is not an option, you can check out this tool, developed by Time magazine, which counts the days of your life you’ve wasted on Facebook. A perfect reminder to restrict your time on the site.

2. Facebook has 1.28 billion Active Users

For most, it’s become a daily addiction. You’ve just woken up, sleepy and bleary eyed, you’re already checking your notifications or you click on your browser to check your emails, but before you know it, you’re scanning your news feed to see if anyone has done anything exciting. Sounds familiar? Clicking on the blue icon has become a reflex action.

3. Facebook has a 100 million active users in India

And 84 percent of those users access the site via their smart phones. These numbers were announced on 31st March 2014. Facebook’s biggest competitor is its very own WhatsApp, which has more than 40 million registered users in the subcontinent.

4. There is a Reason Facebook is Blue

A lot of you may already know this one, but the reason is that Mark Zuckerberg, the Founder and CEO of Facebook, is colorblind. Zuckerberg sees the color blue best, because of his red–green color blindness.

5. Facebook is  currently blocked in 4 countries

There are bouts of the site being blocked off and on in several countries. North Korea, China, Iran, Syria, Vietnam have held on to the blockage for a long time.

6.Despite being blocked, China has about 63.5 million Facebook users

When there is a will, there is a way. Although, Facebook is very much blocked by the Great China Firewall, formally known as the Golden Shield Project, a surprising report gave whopping number of registered users in China.

7. You Can Schedule Status Updates on Facebook

Download Hootsuite and it will allow you to schedule posts ahead of time. So you could be sharing content even while you’re relaxing or if you’re busy with some other activity.

8. Viacom, MySpace,Yahoo and NBC Have All Tried to Buy Facebook

In the past ten years, according to David Kirkpatrick’s book The Facebook Effect, 11 companies have tried to acquire this social media giant. Makes us wonder, where would the website be if Mark Zuckerberg had given in and handed it over?

9. Facebook Has Spent a Total of 22billion on Acquisitions

facebook-acquistion-comparison-2 (1)

Instagram, WhatsApp and now, Oculus are only three of the 45 companies that Facebook owns. Facebook has spent a total of 22billion on acquisitions. Some of the other acquired companies include Snaptu, Little Eye Labs, and Friendster Patents.

10. Mark Zuckerberg is the Youngest Self-Made Billionaire

Mark-Zuckerberg (1)

Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard shortly after he came up with the idea of Facebook and now his net worth is 28.5 billion dollars. According to Forbes, Facebook’s shares are up more than 130% over the past year. That’s caused Zuck’s net worth to more than double over the same period, even after he gave away 18 million shares in late December.

Collingwood hospital resumes surgeries to clear massive backlog

Collingwood General and Marine Hospital (CGMH) joins other hospitals across Simcoe Muskoka that are slowly resuming elective surgeries following a six-week pause on non-emergent procedures.

For Carol Dorey, the call to book her surgery can't come soon enough.

"I can't even do everyday stuff like make banana bread or cook because my hand gives out," she said of the pain in her wrist that has plagued her for years.

Dorey was scheduled to have surgery for carpal tunnel, but it was cancelled when the province directed hospitals across Ontario to pause surgeries to make room for the growing number of COVID-19 patients.

"It sucks. I was hoping to have it done and over with before summer," Dorey added.

In Collingwood, outpatient and day surgeries have started back up.

"Patients can't stay overnight," said the hospital CEO, Norah Holder. "We need to keep some beds open just in case we are required to deal with patients with COVID needs."

Holder said they are waiting on the province's green light to resume inpatient surgeries.

Dr. Michael Lisi said it could take up to eight months to clear the surgical backlog after roughly 500 procedures were cancelled.

"We also have to think about the patient backlog that exists from the previous two waves, so we are looking at an extended period of time before we can get back to where we were pre-COVID levels," CGMH's chief of staff said.

Meanwhile, Ontario's fiscal watchdog said it would take the province about three and a half years to clear the surgical backlog from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Elective surgery resumes in Muskoka

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is resuming elective and non-urgent surgeries and procedures.

The move comes after a six-week halt to all non-urgent surgeries was implemented by the Provincial government.

The cancellations affected 450-500 procedures at MAHC. The hospital says teams are busy rescheduling patients.

There is still a possibility that elective and non-urgent surgeries and procedures could be postponed again. Still, Natalie Bubela, MAHC CEO, is hopeful that further service disruption will not be necessary.

Across Simcoe Muskoka, there have been 305 COVID-19 cases since May 18, and the number of ICU patients has been declining in the last few weeks.

In a release, MAHC says a pre-operative COVID swab continues to be required before a surgical procedure.

WATCH: Tim & The Glory Boys new video 'Me Without You'

Tim & The Glory Boys

We have your latest iHeartRadio video premiere with your exclusive look at Tim & The Glory Boys’ new music video for Me Without You.

Canadian country band Tim & The Glory Boys to release heart-wrenching and emotional video for their latest single “Me Without You.” Director David Redman and producers Joe Krestaand Alex Rozanec capture the emotions of hopeless romantics by showcasing a young couple’s emotional roller-coaster journey of love.

Shot in Hamilton and Winnipeg, the video illustrates a young man’s passionate relationship with his ailing girlfriend. As turmoil grows and emotions rise, the main character reflects on happier memories, when things were better. Their relationship is captured through flashbacks of ordinary yet special moments, and the video further emphasizes the unfortunate struggles and emotions people feel when they believe they’re losing someone. Complimented by the heartfelt lyrics of the song, the young man aims to hurdle through these difficult barriers in hopes of regaining uninterrupted love.

“This song explores a deeply committed love. It's definitely a metaphor song – that idea of ‘hey, we're not just in love, you have my heart and my whole life and nothing feels real unless you know about it and you're involved in it and I'm kinda nothing without you’" Tim Neufeld describes the meaning behind the song.

Tim & The Glory Boys are a four piece country band fronted by lead singer Tim Neufeld, who has toured the world for over a decade, shared the stage with countless Canadian Country, Roots and Gospel artists, and won multiple JUNOS, Dove, and Covenant awards. The Glory Boys include Colin Trask (dobro/percussionist) and Brenton Thorvaldson (banjo/guitar). Together, the band has been entertaining live audiences since 2013 with their unique blend of boot-stompin’ country bluegrass, elaborate production and a healthy dose of blue-collar humour. The band is managed by Brad Rempel, an artist and songwriter in his own right and half of the Nashville-based duo, High Valley.

And the baby goes to
14 March 2008 | by Anonymous_MaxineSee all my reviews

Coming on the heels of the great writer's strike in Hollywood, the 2007 Academy Awards ceremony began amidst wonder about what it would be like, after the Golden Globes, I think, was presented as a bare bones ceremony to which few people showed up. I didn't pay much attention to the writer's strike, partly because I'm living in the middle of China at the moment and partly because I just don't see what the big screaming deal is. Maybe it's because I work for a living so it's hard for me to understand the unjust plight of people who get paid 100 times what I make to sit at home and write jokes. Anyway, John Stewart, again the Oscars' host, introduces the show by exclaiming, "You're here! I can't believe you're here!" He then, of course, goes on to ridicule the whole fiasco, clearly touching some nerves but hopefully lightening the tone a little as well.

As usual, Stewart has some great jokes ("What a shame, Titler had some great ideas! He just couldn't get past the name.and the mustache"), and some that just clearly make the audience uncomfortable. But again, luckily we have the writers back so we can watch some of our most talented actors come on stage and tell jokes with all the animation and energy of a hockey puck. That's one of the biggest mysteries of the Oscars. Every year, we see the most talented people in the business come on stage and give astonishingly wooden deliveries of their highly rehearsed jokes and speeches. Maybe this is what happens when they don't have a good director helping them?

George Clooney, surprisingly, seemed to get just a little stuck once or twice during his speech introducing the outstanding 80 years of Oscar sequence. Maybe because of the deadpan response to his cheerful "Hi guys!" greeting to the audience. Maybe they were tired. I thought it was funny. The show could always use a little informality to lighten the tension. John Stewart doesn't exactly have the most perfect track record of delivering classic jokes on stage. He's a funny guy, but nearly half of his jokes must make at least half the audience squirm in their seats ("I believe Javier Bardem told his mother where the bathroom is"). I'm sure that high school kids failing their Spanish classes are still rolling over that one. The rest of us, not so much.

As always the awards are criticized for that ridiculous time limit imposed on the winners. It is certainly true that this show, and any awards show, is ABOUT the winners, and the majority of it should be given to them to give thanks to what is often one of the greatest honors of their lives. John Stewart has plenty of time to make bad jokes and often poke ridiculous fun at some of our most talented actors, yet those actors themselves are so often rushed off the stage by that incessant orchestra music, which is really no different from someone extending a hook onto the stage and yanking the speaker off by their neck.

Obviously, it's clear why this happens. The Oscars, unfortunately, are about honoring the greatest achievement in film-making, but more than that, they are a media frenzy. The show is designed to get ratings much more than to honor performances or achievements. This is why the greatest actors and animators and directors and costume designers and writers are shooed offstage so that Stewart can introduce another pointless montage that does nothing but eat up time. In this ceremony, he even mentions that, had the writer's strike continued, they would have had to "pad the show with even more montages" (Oscar Salute to Binoculars and Periscopes?? Bad Dreams, An Oscar Salute!??).

Pad the show!! What, was there a shortage of material?

After showing these film clips, which Stewart introduces as pointless, he quips about how great it is that they don't have to waste our time by showing them. What the hell is going on here? Is this what the winners are rushed off the stage for?

And by the way, best category announcement of the evening has to go to Forrest Whitaker, and best acceptance speeches? Tilda Swinton and Marketa Irglova. Definitely.

Note: John Stewart mentions the IMDb as he is introducing Nicole Kidman onto the stage. I think that's the first time I've ever heard anyone mention the IMDb at the Oscars. It's just too bad that he has become so famous as a political satirist, because political satire only has the tiniest place at an event like the Oscars. More importantly, it has made it nearly impossible for Stewart to offer genuine congratulations without sounding like he's going to crack some stupid joke afterwards (which half the time he does).

All in all, even though the Oscars seem to get more commercialized every year, they are still all about the love of movies, and this year is no different. It's an inspiring show no matter how many little bothersome things we have to deal with, and it's hard not to enjoy a lot of people experiencing their dreams literally coming true before our eyes. I particularly loved the occasional history of the Oscars montages that they would show in between awards. THAT is the stuff the show should be padded with. After all, remembering great moments in film is what it's all about.

10 on the Weekend – Nestor Alfred: CIP Harmonization Still a Priority

Ten On The Weekend is a weekly feature on IMI, the concept of which is simple: Each weekend, we ask the same ten questions of a different industry figure, letting readers get to know the interviewee on a more personal and informal level than they might in an ordinary business setting.

This weekend’s guest is Nestor Alfred, CEO of the Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment Unit.

How do you spend your weekends? Weekends are specifically for family and listening to the week of adventures from the mouth of my two beautiful little girls.

What are your top three business goals this year?

  • To have 2020 be the best year for the St. Lucia Citizenship by Investment Programme;
  • To have the St. Lucia CIP become the preferred option for second citizenship;
  • To achieve some level of collaboration amongst the five CIP islands in the region.

What’s your biggest business concern right now?
Finding a sustainable way to bring about a greater level of harmonization amongst the islands offering CIPs.

Which book is on your night-stand right now?
Actually, there are two; Tales of Two Planets by John Freeman and The Book Awakening by Mark Nepo.

How and when did you first get into the investment migration industry?
I was the Chairman of the St. Lucia Gaming Board and was stuck all day long putting together regulations and guidelines for that sector and, in the midst of undertaking this exercise, my phone rang and it was the Prime Minister on the other end. This conversation resulted in my spearheading the CIU of St. Lucia. So, August 2016 was the start of my first footsteps in the migration sector.

What was your proudest moment as an industry professional?
To be part of the process in bringing on board the first real estate project and possibly the biggest real estate development within the OECS, which will see 721 rooms added to the island’s stock of hotel rooms.

Which investment migration market development has surprised you the most in the last year?
The mandate given by the OECS Heads to the OECS Commission and the ECCB to coordinate regional collaboration amongst the five CIP-islands.

If you could go 10 years back in time, what business decision would you change?
None. Every business decision made, whether good or bad, over the past ten years certainly molded me into the person that I am right now.

What investment migration industry personality do you most admire
There are two persons within the industry that I truly admire. However, given my position/role within the industry, it may not be the best choice to mention them by name. One of those individuals’ story of success gives hope and reinforces the old adage that you can achieve whatever you put your mind and spirit into. The second individual is one who is never afraid to share his position and you can always get an objective and balanced position on matters.

If all goes according to plan, what will you be doing five years from now?
Sitting under my palm trees with a glass of Merlot on weekdays!

Research Interests

My current research interests are focused on quantifying the impacts of stressors (chemical pollution, climate change, acidification, species invasions and habitat alteration) on the structure and functioning of aquatic food webs and ecosystems. I am currently collaborating with a range of expert from different disciplines to unravel the links between patterns and processes in natural systems, and to develop a conceptual framework within which to advance ecological theory. I am particularly interested in how "metabolic theory" and allometric scaling laws can be applied to complex ecological systems. For instance, body size and temperature determine basal metabolic rate, and the consequences of this are manifested across multiple levels of biological organisation, from molecules, to individuals, and through to entire ecosystems. Allometric scaling is common in nature (e.g. body size versus ingestion rate, growth rate, interaction strength etc.) and can have potentially profound effects on the structure and dynamics of complex ecological networks (food webs, plant-pollinator networks etc.) and their ability to withstand perturbations.  Many stressors can reshape these fundamental relationships and how metabolism and body size given higher level processes: we have found that warming alters the base of the food web, with huge implications for the apex presdators at the top of the food chain, for example.

In parallel with this ongoing work I am also developing new individual-based approaches to ecological networks. Most food webs published to date ignore the fact that trophic interactions occur between individuals, even though this is the level at which feeding links are realised.  An individual-based perspective can reveal surprising differences from the traditional viewpoint, and increasingly we see in aquatic food webs body size is far more important than species identity - in terms of both structure and functioning of the systems as a whole. Ultimately, one of my aims of my research is to use it to address more applied issues: in particular, I am interested in how food webs and ecosystems respond to stressors - especially climate change and chemical pollution - and the potential interactive or synergistic effects that can emerge when multiple stressors are operating (as is typically the case in the real world). If we can understand the underlying mechanisms then we are in a better position to be able to conserve, or even restore, damaged ecosystems.  Much of my recent research has focused on studying geothermally-heated streams in Iceland and experimentally warmed large arrays of field mesoscosms, to study the impacts of global warming on natural systems, and also how this modulates the effects of chemical pollution.

Research Group and Grant Awards

Since 2005 I have been awarded >£13M of external grant funding as a Principal or Co-Investigator. The NERC ERCITE Project I am leading (£2.5M) was awarded in 2017 and is currently ongoing, building on the advances we made in various preceding grants focused on warming and chemical pollution, including a £3.7M NERC Large Grant I led from 2015-2020.  In 2012 I was awarded £3.7m, including £430k as PI on part of a larger consortium (£3m) NERC grant led by Isabelle Durance at Cardiff University and £700k on a NERC Standard Grant led by Dr Mark Ledger. I was awarded £511k in 2011 as PI for another NERC Standard grant ("Using individual metabolism and body size to predict climate warming impacts on aquatic food webs"; Woodward, Reuman, Petchey & Reiss).  In 2010 I was awarded >£1m as a Co-Investigatior on two NERC Standard grants and I was previously the Principal Investigator on a NERC Grant (£372k) "Biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships in fresh waters: a food web perspective" (2006-2009).  I co-wrote another NERC Grant as the named PDRA (£338k [2005-2008]) investigating how the introduction of a top predator alters the structure and functioning of a stream food web and was awarded a further two years of funding (£575k [2008-2010) as Co-I under the NERC EHFI scheme to carry out an additional bottom-up manipulation of the same food web. In addition to the grants above, I have received >£500k from the European Science Foundation, the John Spedan Lewis Foundation, AXA Insurance, and NERC Open Case and NERC Algorithim studentships and s range of philanthropic and industrial support.

Research Collaborations

I have a broad range of active and ongoing collaborations with many world experts in population, community and ecosystem ecology, in addition to my colleagues here at Imperial, including Dr Jose Montoya (CNRS, France), Prof. Mark Trimmer (Queen Mary University of London), Dr Dan Reuman (Kansas State, USA), Prof. Owen Petchey (University of Zurich), Prof. Simon Jennings (CEFAS / University of East Anglia), Prof. Bo Ebenman (Linkoping University, Sweden), Prof Alex Dumbrell (University of Essex) Prof Nikolai Friberg (NIVA, Norway). Our work has included investigating the mechanistic basis of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships and food web interactions, including measuring and predicting the possible impacts of climate change and chemical stressors on natural ecosystems.

Before the first top tech company executive took his or her seat around the marble conference table at Trump Tower on Wednesday, Donald Trump had already made his point, loud and clear.

Apple CEO Tim Cook, Alphabet CEO Larry Page, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg -- none of them learned anything they didn't know from the president-elect, or offered any radical new ideas about how to create jobs, the putative focus of the meeting.

But that didn't matter, because it wasn't the real purpose of the event.

The real purpose was best illustrated by who wasn't there: Jack Dorsey, the co-founder and current CEO of Twitter, and also CEO of the payments company Square. As everyone in the room was no doubt aware, Dorsey wasn't there because he wasn't invited. Just why was a mystery, all the more mysterious because Twitter is the one piece of technology that Trump, otherwise something of a Luddite, unabashedly adores, while Square is used by millions of small businesses and independent vendors.

A Forbes reporter was told Twitter didn't have enough impact on the economy or employ enough people to rate an invite. Trump lent that some credence when he said Peter Thiel, the venture capitalist serving as his top transition-team adviser on technology, had told him not to invite at least one company that was "too small." A board member of Twitter rival Facebook, Thiel has publicly disparaged Twitter on multiple occasions.

But another source says Dorsey's interview with Edward Snowden on Tuesday was the reason for the snub; Snowden is considered by many, especially on the political right, to be a traitor. Thickening the broth still farther, Politico reported that Trump decided to punish Dorsey for vetoing his campaign's plan to create a "Crooked Hillary" emoji for appending to Tweets. And of course Twitter was the first tech company to step forward and declare it would never go along with Trump's tossed-off idea of a national registry for Muslims.

These explanations aren't mutually exclusive. It doesn't matter if all of them are true or none of them is. What matters is, Trump had an opportunity to make an example of someone, and he did.

Ever the dealmaker, at least in his own mind, Trump is always working one of two tools: the carrot or the stick. He's either flattering or berating, conciliating or demonizing. You saw that a few weeks ago, when he reportedly dressed down a delegation of prominent television journalists and executives,* then showed up the next day at the New York Times and called the newspaper he loves to hate a "great, great American jewel."

Trump has already done his share of beating the tech industry with his rhetorical stick. He threatened to go after Bezos, whose Washington Post has published scoop after damaging scoop about Trump, on antitrust grounds, and promised to force Apple to start making iPhones in the U.S.

All that was left, in person, was to offer the carrot -- but not too indiscriminately. That would be rash, for Silicon Valley is perhaps the only remaining American power center with the economic and cultural capital to challenge Trump and Trumpism.

So there was flattery aplenty -- "In the world, there's nobody like the people in this room, and anything we can do to help this go along, we'll be there for you," he told his audience of captives -- and vague promises to "make it a lot easier for you to trade across borders" and the like.

But none of it carried anything like the weight of the implied threat Trump hung in the air by excommunicating Dorsey. The vaguer or more trivial Dorsey's sins, the better for Trump's purpose of striking fear. The clear message:

You aren't any different. You are used to being treated with deference because of who you are and what you've done, and you're used to politicians who engage with you through the appropriate channels, ever mindful of official decorum and conflicts of interest. Forget all that. It won't save you. If you are good to me, I'll be good to you. If you cross me, I will single you out and humiliate you just like I humiliated Chris Christie and Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney. I will give you the full Trump treatment, and it's a lot worse than forcing you to sit at the table with my children as though they are your peers, you, the new masters of the universe.

On their way out of Trump Tower, none of the tech executives stopped to answer questions from the press pool.

Because his message was received.

*An earlier version of this story said Donald Trump "publicly dressed down" television journalists and executives. The report cited described a meeting that, while well attended, took place in a private setting. "Publicly" has been changed to "reportedly."

On Saturday, August 20, Mumbai Unplugged presents a unique, first-of-its-kind concert in New Zealand at the Dorothy Winstone Centre at 6 p.m. It will feature a never-before-heard repertoire of sounds and rhythms with exotic influences presented creatively.

World leading percussion wizard Taufiq Qureshi and star sitar player Purbayan Chatterjee from Mumbai will join Auckland musicians Ben, Jo and Manjitin to create a unique musical tapestry like no other.

Mumbai Unplugged will feature music and rhythms that transcend genres, with sounds and beats from many countries around the world, while yet being solidly rooted in tradition. There’s a bit of jazz and blues, a bit classic Bollywood, Indian classical and folk, world music influences, some techno and much more, but all with firm traditional roots.

Mumbai Unplugged is being hosted under the auspices of the Mohan Nadkarni Foundation, the University of Auckland School of Music and Might-I.

Mumbai Unplugged will commemorate the 50th anniversary of a unique and successful experiment in the history of India’s popular music. In 1967, legendary Bollywood music directors Shankar Jaikishan collaborated with a whole host of Jazz artistes of the time to produce the wildly successful vinyl album Raga Jazz Style. The album was an instant success worldwide and is listened to with much nostalgia to this day.

It featured 11 tunes based on Indian traditional and classical music but played mainly with non-Indian instruments popular in jazz such as saxophone, trumpet, piano, drums, bass, electric guitars and piccolo. The only traditional Indian instruments were tabla and sitar. Taufiq, Purbayan and the Auckland artistes will recreate some of these tracks at Mumbai Unplugged.

Taufiq and Purbayan have been in Auckland since August 1 conducting workshops over three weeks for the students of the University of Auckland School of Music. Mumbai Unplugged comes at the end of the workshops.

Tickets for Mumbai Unplugged are selling fast and at $30 and $25, are extremely reasonably priced. Visit iticket.co.nz or Yogiji’s Food Market to book and buy or call organiser on 021-1712777. Tickets will also be sold at the door prior to the show (if not already sold out).

Twitter as backchannel

A new challenge is confronting conference speakers today: Twitter. In increasing numbers audience are using Twitter to create a back channel around a conference. This can be a challenge to the presenter, but social media consultant Laura Fitton, aka Pistachio Consulting, argues the opposite.

She lists a number of benefits including:

  • Helping the audience focus
  • The audience gets more content
  • Audience members get questions answered on the fly
  • The audience members can connect with each other

And if all else fails, she says, and the talk is really dull at least there’s something else to do!

The social dimension of companies

A couple of stories which have been blowing up on the Twittersphere over the past couple of days serve to illustrate the point that organisations’ reputations are very vulnerable to their employees’ (or affiliates’) actions online – and in particular on social media.

The first was the furore surrounding the “effing blogs” post by Adam Tinworth – read all about it here. The second was today when Kevin May wrote about another social media inspired fracas, this time involving Ryan Air.

I wonder if we aren’t reaching some kind of tipping point?

Twitter on Twitter

Twitter has been in the news a lot recently and not all of it for the right reasons. The (positive) obsession started with living legend Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross which ignited some frenzied MSM attention.

Then followed what @henryp calls the “twatlash” – adverse media attention such as the Mail’s “social media gives you cancer” stunner, or the Sunday Times’ expose showing that use of Twitter stems from a lack of identity.

Of course Twitter is a communication medium rather than a phenomenon in its own right, and has been used for many, many things: back channel, friend network broadcast tool, research, earthquake early warning, and much, much more.

But we will know when it finally has come of age when Twitter the subject does not take up any air-time on Twitter the medium. After all how many emails discuss the phenomenon of email?

A MoJo lets his readers define story

A great post by Daniel Victor sets out to explain his new role as MoJo – mobile journalist. He seems genuinely excited about this new challenge:

What that means is, correctly, still to be determined. We do know it’ll involve video, still photography, print stories and a lot of updates for the Web. We know I’ll have a laptop and an aircard, will file most of my stories from my car and coffee shops, and will aim to be in the office as little as possible.

He says his stated goal will be have one originally generated story a day, be it in words, video, audio or some combination.

Every day I’ll solicit story ideas from my readers via comments on the blog. At the end of the day, I’ll post their story ideas in poll form, and my readers will vote on which one they want me to cover tomorrow. And that’s the one I’ll do.

The new tools available to journalists – from laptops, Blackberries and Flip video, to Moveable Type, Twitter and Flickr – make possible a dramatic re-invention of the profession. It is only a pity that there are so few actively engaged in pushing the boundaries so far.

New approach to local journalism?

I’ve just read an interesting post by Koka Sexton which details five ways to grow a local blog. There has been a lot of agonised debate about the role (and economic future) of local newspapers so it was interesting to see one person using modern social technology to such good effect. It’s worth a read, but the headlines are:

  1. Use Twitter to spread the word
  2. Use Craigslist to generate traffic
  3. Let your readers know you care
  4. Remember local content is king
  5. Use local advertising

It would be interesting to see a version of this for b2b niches – many of the approaches would transfer well.

Rewriting the vision for newspapers

Google SVP Jonathan Rosenberg wrote a lengthy essay which celebrated Google’s role in making the world’s information accessible. He’s now made it publicly available  (with suitable edits, he says).

One section spoke of the role of newspapers in this information and technology-rich  world. It’s worth repeating as is creates a vision for what should be possible in a modern news organisation which was properly focussed on its readers.

The experience of consuming news on the web today fails to take full advantage of the power of technology. It doesn’t understand what users want in order to give them what they need. When I go to a site like the New York Times or the San Jose Mercury, it should know what I am interested in and what has changed since my last visit. If I read the story on the US stimulus package only six hours ago, then just show me the updates the reporter has filed since then (and the most interesting responses from readers, bloggers, or other sources). If Thomas Friedman has filed a column since I last checked, tell me that on the front page. Beyond that, present to me a front page rich with interesting content selected by smart editors, customized based on my reading habits (tracked with my permission). Browsing a newspaper is rewarding and serendipitous, and doing it online should be even better. This will not by itself solve the newspapers’ business problems, but our heritage suggests that creating a superior user experience is the best place to start.

Quite a challenge for content-obsessed news organisations, but one which is worth taking up.

Complications of data ownership

Facebook has created a storm of comment around it’s change of ts & cs. Techcrunch illustrates the problems of data ownership in social networks perfectly in a post on the subject. Describing the argument of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Techcrunch writes:

Essentially, he says that the issues are not so cut and dry. When you share your data with someone else, whether it be an email or a photo, it becomes their data as well. You cannot normally rescind data you share with other people in an e-mail. So why should a social network be any different?

But as Techcrunch points out that is tantamount to saying "trust us" – something which becomes harder and harder to do.

UPDATE: Facebook reverts to old Ts & Cs "for now".

Five Digital Trends for 2009

Steve Rubel, Edelman’s "Director of Insights" (great title) has produced a sensible white paper of five digital trends to watch in 2009. They are:

Satisfaction Guaranteed – Customer care and PR are blending as consumers use social media to demand service

Media Reforestation -  The media is in a constant state of reinvention as it transitions from atoms to bits

Less is the New More – Overload takes its toll. Gorging on media is out. Selective ignorance and friends as filters are in

Corporate All-Stars – Workers flock to social media to build their personal brands, yet offer employers an effective and credible way to market in the downturn

The Power of Pull -  Where push once ruled, it’s now equally important to create digital content that people discover through search

Download the full PDF whitepaper here.

The strength of platforms

I spent part of the weekend updating the sales records and mailing list of my other half and talented artist Gail Brodholt. In the past I’ve kept this on Excel spreadsheets which are very good for mail-merging.

This time round, though, I thought I would experiment with Google Docs. The formatting and spreadsheet functionality is definitely not as fully-developed as Excel, but I discovered Gadgets – one which displays all her past sales on a world map – brilliant! – and one which adds a layer of sophisticated analysis so that we can see how much comes from Art Fairs as opposed to galleries etc.

The other really interesting possibility is the addition of a form, which Google Docs makes a breeze. Once this is emailed to a mobile phone there is now a simple way to update this spreadsheet from anywhere. And anyone can do it.

All this is possible because Google has a powerful platform which it can plug together to offer really powerful possibilities.

Last week there were reports that Google was looking to allow downloading of HD video from YouTube. As it has the Checkout payment platform, it has not only a business model, but the means to make it stick.

The power is in the platform.

Inked Magazine: The Moto Issue (3 Cover Options) - July 2021

Throw on your leather jacket and get ready to take a wild ride, this is Inked’s 2021 Moto Issue. This issue is so action-packed we were forced to put out three separate covers.

On one cover we have former WWE Superstar and Guardian of the Galaxy, Dave Bautista. In our freewheeling conversation we discussed the upcoming “Army of the Dead” and how much fun it is to shoot a zombie movie, how being a fan helped him through hard times growing up and the way riding his motorcycle helps him stay centered.

On another cover we have TikTok sensation Bella Poarch. We talked to Poarch about how she plans to turn her massive popularity on TikTok into a multi-faceted career, the time she spent serving in the U.S. Navy and how quarantine has prevented her from fully understanding the reach she has.

For our third cover, we’re featuring Trippie Redd. We spoke with the prolific rapper about his most recent album, “Pegasus,” his tattoos and a whole lot more.

Inside the book you’ll find a feature with Imogen Lehtonen, an innovative woman who has taken her passion for riding and combined it with her family’s jewelry business. We spoke with the groundbreaking artist Okuda about the colorful worlds he creates. MTV Jesse stopped by the office to take us behind the scenes of the prank video world.

In addition to all of that we’ve got a review of this year’s most exciting bikes penned by Natalie Cuomo, a photo-essay of a ride through Arizona with Indian Motorcycles shot by Jason Goodrich, a tremendous art project curated by Luke Wessman and much, much more.

Get your motors running, it’s Inked’s 2021 Moto Issue.

Rockin’ in the Free World? Why Neil Young should cancel his Tel Aviv tour date

Posted By on Fri, Mar 14, 2014 at 12:27 PM

Graffiti on the separation wall in the West Bank links the civil rights movement and Palestinians' current struggle for equality.

When people ask how I became interested in politics and engaged in activism, sometimes I will give them the honest answer. It has less to do with studying American history and more to do with cutting class to listen to rock and roll, or whatever the kids are calling it these days. Lazy summers with Bob Marley, going on long runs with System of a Down keeping pace, or just spacing out with Radiohead, I was exposed to historical figures, political theory and a narrative that was left out of the limited humanities education I’d been receiving. Even a passing mention of a name or event that intrigued me had the power to repeat in my head, as all good pop music does, and prompt a quick online search. Those initial searches led me way down the rabbit hole of anti-authoritarian and people’s history, which led me on a search for the best things to do about the problems in the world.

The other question most people ask is, “Are your parents activists?” They are smart people, but they don’t have a history of political involvement. Luckily for me, though, they both have killer music taste and I was raised on iconoclasts like the Clash, the Talking Heads and, as a ’90s kid, all of the grunge staples. Some of my earliest memories center on driving around with my dad listening to the radio. Like any typical child, I had a lot of questions and he did a good job filling in the stories that certain songs talked about. I learned about Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination from U2, a little about the IRA and Ireland from the Cranberries, and the story of the Kent State shootings from my dad’s all-time favorite recording artist, Neil Young.

Neil Young has a history of supporting rock and roll’s demand to question authority. He’s made cautionary tales about drug abuse less lame for decades, he points out the hypocrisy of Western visions of American expansion, and in recent years, he’s dedicated an entire tour to showing his solidarity with indigenous people resisting fossil fuel extraction in North America in his “Honour the Treaties” performances in Canada. All of these reasons seem to indicate that he’s not the type of artist to support apartheid and brutal military occupation, but his planned July tour date in Tel Aviv, Israel, indicates otherwise.

Pressure on Young from the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement is sure to build in the coming weeks and months, as we’ve seen recently with Scarlett Johansson and Alicia Keys. Both of those performers chose to ignore the overwhelming demands to honor the call of Palestinian civil society (which is also supported by a growing number of Jewish Israelis) to support the cultural and academic boycott. Right now is an interesting time in this movement and part of me can understand Johansson, Keys and other academics’ and artists’ hesitancy, given the vicious attacks that open critics of Israel’s racist and violent policies are subject to, especially given their place in the public eye. It can be scary to do what’s right when it seems unpopular, but I think that they both underestimated how alone they are in supporting these policies. Alicia Keys snubbed a personal letter from Alice Walker, among millions of other requests, and Scarlett Johansson gave up her position with Oxfam as a humanitarian ambassador rather than say no to Sodastream.

The U.S. is the only country that continues to offer support to Israel’s ethnic cleansing and apartheid policies, and even that support appears to be slowly dwindling, despite a continued $3 billion annual bill in military aid, a greater amount than any other country receives from the U.S. by far. Only through persistent intimidation and fierce propaganda is the state able to convince Americans that Israel’s policies are necessary or morally acceptable. The fear of being labeled anti-Semitic has kept many public figures and regular people away from this issue, but once a person does research and examines their own good sense, the label loses its sting. I’ve been called an anti-Semite at least a dozen times online since posting about Neil Young and the BDS movement on Facebook yesterday, but it simply isn’t true. I am simply anti-oppression, anti-unfairness, and anti-militarism.

In Tel Aviv this May, I met with Jewish activists in Israel (along with many Palestinians in the West Bank) who made a passionate case for ending the unequal system that they live within. Some of the people who appear to benefit from this apartheid structure, Jewish Israelis, have realized that the benefit is an illusion, that a militaristic and fear-driven society can’t do anything positive for those on either so-called “side” of the equation. I am standing with those who are listening to people suffering in Palestine, Israel, and throughout the region as a result, and asking Neil Young to step down from his planned tour date in Tel Aviv. He will be in limited, but good, company. Stephen Hawking is probably the biggest name who has publicly honored the academic and cultural boycott so far. He said,

“I accepted the invitation to the Presidential Conference with the intention that this would not only allow me to express my opinion on the prospects for a peace settlement but also because it would allow me to lecture on the West Bank. However, I have received a number of emails from Palestinian academics. They are unanimous that I should respect the boycott. In view of this, I must withdraw from the conference. Had I attended, I would have stated my opinion that the policy of the present Israeli government is likely to lead to disaster.”

Neil Young has the respect of listeners around the world, and I suspect he’ll be rewarded for making the right choice. This is a campaign that has worked before, from the Montgomery bus boycott of the U.S. civil rights movement, to ending structural apartheid in South Africa. If cultural icons like Hawking and Young do the right thing, they can lead the way, creating a snowball effect of pressure from within and outside of Israel, doing their part to move toward a peaceful world. If Neil Young goes on to play in Tel Aviv this summer despite the mounting requests that he honor the boycott, I will probably never be able to listen to “Ohio” again. Something tells me that Palestinians and Israelis alike can relate to his words from the Vietnam era: “Gotta get down to it / Soldiers are cutting us down / Should have been done long ago.” ♦

I use Word and it does take a long time to write reports when there are lots of issues with the house. I don't use very much canned language, I think (hope) my reports are better when they are mostly specifically written.
