Mainline worries about dearth of young pastors: Fewer than 5 percent under 35

April 18, 2006

At the end of April, a new TV ad financed by the Episcopal Church will show 30-something Paige Blair of Maine talking casually about how during tough times, church provides her “some solace and perspectives that help me understand, reconcile and forgive.”

She doesn’t think the church “gets everything right,” she goes on to say. “I go because if I didn’t, people would ask me why. After all, I am the priest of this parish.”

Words on the screen then identify Blair as rector of St. George’s Episcopal Church in York Harbor, Maine—a church she’s served since 2000. Clergy in other regions will be featured in future versions of the 30-second ad—with the proviso that they are of “Gen-X age,” reported Episcopal News Service.

The TV campaign reflects the escalating concern of mainline church leaders that the paucity of pastors under 35 will have a negative effect on attracting and keeping young-adult churchgoers.

A newly released study of clergy ages in the largest mainline denomination, the United Methodist Church, shows a dramatic drop in under-35 ordained pastors in the past 20 years. The number of younger clergy dropped from 15.05 percent of the 1985 total to 4.69 percent in 2005.

The actual numbers of younger UMC pastors declined from 3,219 in 1985 to 850 last year, according to a report released March 20 by Lovett H. Weems Jr., director of the Lewis Center for Church Leadership at Methodist-related Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C.

“The project originated from a concern that the age of United Methodist clergy is getting disproportionately older than the population the church seeks to reach,” said Weems. Most of the figures came as “estimates from denominational offices or from survey responses” rather than from hard statistics, he said.

Yet the current low percentage of under-35 ordained Methodist pastors resembles the estimates that Weems obtained from other mainline churches: American Baptists and Disciples of Christ each at 5.5 percent, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America at 4.86 percent and the Episcopal Church at 4.1 percent. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) total was higher, at 7.1 percent, but that was a figure from 2002.

“With this study the drumbeat of concern is growing louder,” commented Ann Svennungsen, president of the Atlanta-based Fund for Theological Education (FTE). “But the key will be whether we hear it and all of the church’s institutions hold themselves accountable for inviting qualified, diverse young people into ministry.”

A much-reported factor in recent decades is the high ratio of new seminarians who are second-career men and women entering the ministry at older ages, thus contributing to the overall graying of pastors. Also, according to the March 17 New York Times, more seminarians today seek a degree not to become pastors but to bring their theological and ethical perspectives into other kinds of work.

The FTE this year announced a $6 million, four-year grant from the Lilly Endowment to encourage congregations to recruit under-35 candidates for the ministry with the aid of grants to offset tuition and living expenses.

“This work should be one of the church’s highest priorities,” Svennungsen said. “Leadership matters, for the health of congregations and for the strength of the congregation’s mission in the world.”

Weems put it similarly: “The issue of enlisting younger quality clergy must be seen side by side with the quality and vitality of the church itself.” Citing the analysis by author Gil Rendle in The Multigenerational Congregation, Weems said that church leaders “have to contend with the worldviews of multiple generations together.”

Will new method of stem cell extraction solve ethical concerns? Procedure derives cells without destroying embryos: Procedure derives cells without destroying embryos

September 19, 2006

Scientists unveiled last month a new way to derive potentially life-saving stem cells from an embryo without destroying it, but some abortion opponents said they regard the proposed method as unethical.

In the online version of the journal Nature, researchers from Advanced Cell Technology (ACT) told how they extracted single cells from 16 embryos and let the cells grow overnight. Once the single cell had broken into two, scientists used one to grow new stem cell lines whose regenerative potential might hold keys to curing diseases such as Parkinson’s. Of the 91 cells removed, two yielded viable stem cell lines.

The technique of extracting one cell from an eight-celled embryo has for 10 years been used in fertility clinics to assess the genetic health of an embryo before it is implanted in a woman’s uterus. ACT says “more than 1,500 healthy children have been born following the use” of this method.

“Our ability to create human embryonic cell lines and therapies without harming the embryo should assuage the ethical concerns of many Americans,” said William M. Caldwell IV, head of ACT. “We look forward to potentially working with partners to produce significant medical benefit through the use of this technique.”

Objections, however, quickly surfaced from Roman Catholic ethicists. Among them was Edward J. Furton of the National Catholic Bioethics Center in Philadelphia. His concern centered on the fact that the technique exposes the embryo to “more than minimal risk” without offering it any potential benefit. “If you’re an eight-celled embryo and you have one of your cells removed, that’s obviously a major, invasive procedure and clearly beyond minimal risk,” Furton said.

More concerns came from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. Cells removed from an embryo might be “very early embryos” in their own right and therefore shouldn’t be destroyed, according to Richard M. Doerflinger, deputy director of pro-life activities for the bishops.

Other ethicists, however, expressed hope in the new procedure, primarily because the embryo isn’t destroyed.

“One of the major ethical objections of those who oppose the generation of human embryonic stems cells is that all techniques, until now, have resulted in the destruction of the embryo,” said Ronald Green, director of Dartmouth College’s Ethics Institute and chair of ACT’s ethics advisory board. ACT has facilities in Worcester, Massachusetts, and Alameda, California.

Added Green: “This technique overcomes this hurdle and has the potential to play a critical role in the advancement of regenerative medicine. It also appears to be a way out of the current political impasse in this country and elsewhere.”

In 2001 President Bush effectively banned federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. It is commonly practiced on an embryo at the blastocyst stage, with about 150 cells. But according to the study’s authors, the new technique, using technology developed for in vitro fertilization, leaves the embryo with the ability to develop into a fetus.

Nonetheless, Nature reported that the technique raises ethical questions for others. “There are fears that removing a cell from an embryo will lower its chances of implantation in the womb or alter its development and cause later health problems for the resulting child,” the journal said.

According to Nature, Robert Lanza, who headed the research team, “answers this by saying that the risks of the procedure are minimal and that it would only be performed on embryos that are to undergo pre-implantation genetic diagnosis anyway.” –Religion News Service, Associated Baptist Press

After controversial video, Vatican hosts serious discussion on Islam

October 22, 2012

As a Vatican delegation prepared in October to leave for war-torn Syria, the Catholic Church’s fraught relationship with Islam emerged as one of the main themes at a major gathering of the world’s bishops in Rome.

The debate was stirred by a leading cardinal who on October 13 showed a  video titled Muslim Demographics, which purports to document Islam’s growing global influence. The video was shown during a Vatican-organized synod of bishops on new ways to evangelize in the modern world.

The accuracy of the seven-minute video’s data and projections have been sharply disputed and criticized by experts since its emergence in 2009, but the showing of the film sparked renewed soul-searching among Catholic leaders on the church’s stance toward the growth of Islam in the West and in Africa.

Highlighting the sensitivity of the issue, the Vatican was quick to distance itself from the video and its contents. The cardinal who showed it, Ghana’s Peter Turkson, head of the Vatican office for justice and peace, has apologized.

According to Samir Khalil Samir, an Islam expert at the synod, some bishops were “highly critical” of the video and questioned its data and assertions. Others, such as German cardinal Joachim Meisner, considered it a “warning” that the church must, at least in some measure, heed.

The Demographics debate erupted just as the Vatican was displaying renewed concern over the fate of Christian minorities in the Middle East. On October 17 the Vatican announced the imminent departure of a high-level delegation to Syria.

The Vatican mission, which was to include New York cardinal Timothy Dolan, was to arrive in Damascus just a month after Pope Benedict’s visit to neighboring Lebanon in September. It will be a sign of “solidarity” toward the Syrian people and their suffering, said Congolese cardinal Laurent Monsengwo Pasinya, a member of the Vatican’s Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples.

The mission sought to rekindle fledgling attempts to find a political solution to Syria’s civil war. —RNS

Hundreds of survivors of breast cancer will join family and friends, Gov Steve Beshear and First Lady Jane Beshear, and other dignitaries on Sunday, Nov 20 at Churchill Downs for the track’s annual “Horses and Hope Day at the Races.”

The daylong celebration at the historic home of the Kentucky Derby is designed to raise awareness and funding for the work of “Horses and Hope,” First Lady Jane Beshear‘s breast cancer outreach initiative that provides information and offers free breast cancer screenings to workers in Kentucky’s signature horse industry.

Horses and Hope works in partnership with the Kentucky Cancer Program to make the information and screenings available to the more than 80,000 equine-related workers in Kentucky.  Many served by “Horses and Hope” work in racetrack stables or on horses farms and are either underinsured or have no insurance coverage.  Without Horses and Hope, many of those workers have little or no access to breast cancer information and screening services.

The First Lady and Gov. Beshear are scheduled to join breast cancer survivors in the winner’s circle for the trophy presentation following Sunday’s fifth race.  Post time for that special Horses and Hope race is scheduled for 2:35 p.m. (all times EST).  Sunday’s first race post time is 12:40 p.m.

Visitors to Churchill Downs on Sunday will find a pink tent in the Paddock Garden in which information on the prevention and treatment of breast cancer will be available.  Approximately 1,000 breast cancer survivors, family members and friends will enjoy the day on Millionaires Row 4 and in the Skye Terrace, where Horses & Hope outreach information will also be available.

Patrons will be able to support Horses and Hope through the purchase of logoed merchandise at the Paddock Garden information tent and in the Clubhouse dining areas where breast cancer survivors and their Horses and Hope guests are seated.

Sunday’s racing fans can also purchase the Oaks Lily, the official drink of the Kentucky Oaks, and $1 from the sale of each Oaks Lily will go directly to Horses and Hope.  Donations to the initiative can also be made through Churchill Downs’ “Pony Up for Charity” program.  Patrons will be able to round up by $1 or more the total price of purchases at all concession points-of-sale throughout the track and those funds will go to Horses and Hope.

Churchill Downs is a fundraising partner with Horses and Hope on Kentucky Oaks Day, with $1 going the initiative from the sale of each Oaks Lily.  More than $90,000 has been raised for Horses and Hope during that fundraising partnership during the past three years.

Cytogenetics is the study of chromosomes and its associated aberrations, these being responsible for atleast half of the spontaneous abortions, miscarriages and congenital malformations. Greater than 0.5% newborns have known significant chromosomal aberrations of both autosomes and allosomes; Mental Retardation (MR) is manifested in among 80%. MR’s genetic and causal heterogeneity is greatly varied and complex, so about 65% of the reported cases which are not easily diagnosable or categorized are classified as Idiopathic MR. This study was carried out to identify the presence of any structural chromosomal aberration in 11 patients, manifested with varying degree of Idiopathic MR. Pedigree analysis of patients’ family, GTG banding, HRB and Karyotyping was performed. Evidence of familial origin with visible chromosomal aberration was observed. Genotype-phenotype co-relation could be established only for patients who manifested structural chromosomal aberration, but for others it still remains idiopathic. A detailed molecular genetic analysis like FISH, etc was the need of the hour as MR is Multifactorial and could be attributed to other genetic, epigenetic or environmental factors.

  • Product Description

Prior to GIS (geographic information system), maps were used mainly for strategic planning. As a result, high spatial accuracy was not required. So, errors in spatially referenced data were ignored or considered acceptable. The situation changed today. Accuracy is a great matter of concern for not only increase of land?s monetary value but also for decision making and so on. In Bangladesh, most of the physical planning projects are using GIS for preparing map and making decision but a lion?s share of the data are inaccurate having spatial and attribute error. The more accurate a dataset will be, the more perfect and precise the outcome will be. As imperfection severely limits the usefulness of a dataset especially for GIS, users as well as the specialists need to be very careful regarding errors and managing them. This work is based on some observations especially, some GIS data that the planning authorities of Bangladesh have prepared. Bangladesh is using GIS until very recently and thus, there is a huge scope to improve its data and database.

Does Your Agency Underestimate Email?

Last month I wrote about my view that email is both a speciality that requires experts and a medium that cannot operate in a vacuum. In essence, that email marketers cannot operate without reference to, and appreciation of, other channels but that they should be specialists not generalists.

I want to follow on from that thinking and speak about agencies. Many companies utilize advertising and marketing agencies and there is an enormous variety to accommodate every size and budget. My company belongs to a holding company that owns hundreds of different agencies from huge generalists with offices across the globe to specialist, niche providers. What I’ve seen over the years though is a tendency among agencies to underestimate and undervalue email as a medium and I’ve seen this manifest in several ways.

For some it is a question of risk and reward. They view email as offering little reward while carrying big risks. If they take on email work and execute it well they make relatively little money compared to other media. However, if they execute poorly they may upset an important client or do significant damage to their reputation. These agencies tend to avoid email and are often the reason that you end up hunting around on websites to find out how to get the company’s newsletter or why there’s an outstanding loyalty program with smart membership cards and glossy brochures yet the email updates are text-only and end up in your spam folder.

For some it’s a matter of underestimating the complexity of email. How this varies from the account executive who says, “I send email every day, how hard can it be?” to the designer who says, “It’s just HTML, we do that all the time.” These agencies often take on email work but are more focused on the CPM rate of an email service provider (ESP) than the functionality and the results. When a big company is sending their email through a small business-oriented ESP it’s probably because there’s a “how hard can it be?” agency in the mix.

There are others for whom email seems like a useful adjunct to what they already do. Often CRM or direct mail agencies endeavor to integrate email into their existing offerings and do so with varying degrees of success. They may talk a good talk but their solutions will often be little more than traditional direct marketing campaigns repackaged. When a company’s emails look like they could be printed fliers they’re probably using one of these agencies.

The fourth type of agency is focused on what’s new and exciting in the advertising and marketing world. Talk to them about email and they just aren’t interested – it’s boring and old. They’ll tell you that email is dead. That tweens and teens don’t do email. These are the agencies that will tell you that it’s vital to have a brand presence on some up-and-coming system you’ve never heard of. When a company posts Facebook updates five times a day but their email messages are unusable on your iPhone they’re probably using a magpie agency.

My point of course is not that all agencies are terrible and don’t do email well. There are many great agencies out there, but not all agencies are created equal and exceptional capability in one area does not necessarily mean exceptional in all. Of course, we all know this. But until recently if you wanted an agency to handle email it was likely to be a secondary medium for them and it was very hard to tell in advance how capable they were. In the last few years though things have changed. As the level of sophistication of email platforms has grown and the expectations of consumers has risen so has the number of agencies that have a true email speciality. Some are traditional agencies with full-on email practices while others are specialists whose focus is email.

For agencies that are dabbling in email and faking it till they make it this should be a wakeup call. The bar is being raised. Treat email with the respect and focus it deserves and get in the game or go home.

For clients this means you do not have to settle for your email program being an afterthought. You can expect and receive expert strategy, content, execution, and integration from people who are email specialists with proven track records able to take your email to the max.

Until next time,

Stock Splits

A stock split occurs when a Board of Directors authorizes a change in the par or stated value of its stock. This reduction in par value is made to lower the market price of the stock to make the stock more attractive to potential investors. When a company's stock splits, the change in the par value is offset by a corresponding change in the number of shares so the total par value remains the same. The total stockholders' equity is unaffected by the stock split and no entries are recorded. For example, if Grandma's Girls declared a 3‐for‐1 stock split instead of a 10% stock dividend, the company would issue three shares in place of every one share currently held. After the split occurs, the par value or stated value is divided by 3 (because it is a 3‐for‐1 stock split) to determine the new par or stated value, and the number of outstanding shares is multiplied by 3. After the stock split, the new par value is $1 ($3 ÷ 3) and the number of outstanding shares is 1,500,000 (500,000 × 3). The total par value of the common stock remains at $1,500,000 (1,500,000 shares × $1 par value). The following chart illustrates the effects of stock dividends and stock splits on stockholders' equity.

Wenger facing Fab battle

Arsenal, Updated:
[.[views].], BY ClubCall

Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas has again been linked with a switch to Spain amid reports Real Madrid are lining up a summer move.

Arsenal: Wenger facing Fab battle

Boss Arsene Wenger managed to hold onto the gifted playmaker in the summer despite the best attempts of Barcelona to capture Fabregas, who began his career as a youngster at Camp Nou.
Real boss Jose Mourinho is keen to strengthen in January but the former Chelsea boss has been left frustrated as the club do not intend to hand him a massive war-chest in the New Year.

Madrid based publication Marca claims Mourinho will be backed in the summer and they have suggested he will try and sign the Gunners captain by launching a £35million bid.
However, Barcelona-based paper El Mundo Deportivo have also claimed the Catalan giants will reignite their long-standing interest in Fabregas in the summer and Wenger could be set for another lengthy battle if he is to convince the 23-year-old to stick at Arsenal, especially if the Gunners fail to secure any major silverware this season.
If Real or Barcelona do launch a bid for Fabregas they will probably have to fork out a bigger fee than the £35million that has been reported, as Fabregas is on a long-term contract at the Emirates and the Gunners rejected Barca's summer bid in the region of £29million as they felt the Spanish international was worth considerably more.

The Bad Low volume output; long antenna; must subscribe to XM for $12.95 per month.

The Bottom Line Delphi's affordable satellite-radio receiver and home-adapter kits deliver crystal-clear reception.

Visit manufacturer site for details.

5.6 Overall
  • Design 7.0
  • Features 4.0
  • Performance 6.0
Note: CNET is not currently reviewing car-stereo equipment, so we tested this unit using the home and boombox attachments. The Check Latest Prices links on this page are for the receiver, which cannot be used by itself--at least one of the adapters must be purchased as well.

When it comes to satellite radio, apparently, the second time is a charm. The first receiver that we reviewed for XM Satellite Radio, the Sony DRN-XM01C, showed us the potential of satellite radio for the home and the car but came with such a limited and clunky feature set that we said no thanks. The Delphi XM SkyFi, however, has beautifully laid-out controls, great functionality, and a reasonable price; plus, it works equally well in the car, at home, or as a portable boombox (depending on which adapter you choose).

Editor's note: We have changed the rating in this review to reflect recent changes in our rating scale. Click here to find out more.

Delphi wisely decided to make this satellite receiver a small module that can be augmented with different adapters; car and home adapters run $70 each, while the boombox adapter costs $100. New for 2004 is the $200 CD Audio System, an upgraded boombox that also includes an AM/FM radio and plays audio and MP3 CDs. This means that you can remove the SkyFi from your car to prevent it from being stolen, and that you can also add functionality with other kits. If you really love XM's programming, buying all three peripherals and swapping the pocket-size receiver module among them makes a lot of sense (and one $12.95-per-month subscription covers all three applications).

The 4.5-by-3.0-inch SkyFi receiver features a large, orange screen that displays song and channel information. A scrollwheel to the left of the screen scans through the channels, while a button in the middle of the scrollwheel locks onto a new station. Our only complaint about the controls is that the power button is placed in the lower-middle portion of the receiver instead of on top, where it would be easier to access. Also, the SkyFi heats up; after an hour of use, it feels rather warm.

Four buttons just below the screen let you switch the display mode, access the menu controls, and change from presets to direct-entry mode. Finally, 10 numbered buttons line the SkyFi's bottom, letting you enter either a channel or a preset directly, without scrolling. All functions are also accessible through a small, wireless remote. The SkyFi's features go far beyond those of the Sony model. You can not only scroll through the channels, but you may also see what artists or songs are on each station. A preset-scroll function skips straight to your favorite stations one by one--very convenient.

The standard display shows the channel name, the artist, and the song title, while an alternate display mode gives you only artist and song-title info in large, scrolling letters that can be read from across the room. The Memory button stores up to 10 artist names and track titles, so you can explore new favorite tunes with ease. We had no difficulties with the SkyFi's performance, even after many hours of testing. Although the device, like the Sony, outputs a fairly low volume, the issue was more of an annoyance than a problem, and we easily remedied it by turning up our stereo's volume.

Sound quality is comparable to that of FM radio, and superior to that of XM's competitor, Sirius. Both satellite services are noise- and static-free.

You can see a full programming list on the &siteid=7&edid=&lop=txt&destcat=ex&destUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Exmradio%2Ecom%2Fprogramming%2Fprogramming%5Fmain%2Ehtml">XM Web site, so we'll stick to the highlights here. We perused XM's 101 channels starting with the decade selections: the '40s, '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s, and '90s pop/rock outlets. You also get MTV, VH1, and channels for top 20 music, love songs, movie soundtracks, show tunes, and Euro/global hits. College-radio channel XMU was our favorite, because it turned us on to a lot of new music.

The blues and folk channels consistently surprised us with their excellent programming; the four fantastic jazz options cover a wide range of groovy music. XM Live has original offerings unique to XM and also runs a steady stream of rarely heard vintage concert recordings. The Unsigned channel plays only independent and emerging artists.

XM also provides news, talk, and sports with ABC Radio, BBC World Service, CNBC, CNET radio, CNN, two ESPN channels, and the Weather Channel, but not NPR or PRI. You also get three comedy choices, and for an extra monthly charge, you can enjoy Playboy Radio.

Most music channels are commercial-free, although they run occasional promos for other XM offerings, and even the ones with ads didn't rattle our nerves. Breaks are short, and we sometimes went for 30 minutes without a commercial.

XM programmers deliver long music sets with minimal DJ chatter. Some listeners may prefer that, but at times we yearned for more personality-oriented radio.

Apple reportedly breaks iBooks for jailbreakers

Apple has apparently disabled the ability to open already purchased books from its iBooks app on devices that have been jailbroken with a hack called greenpois0n.

Apple iBooks users who jailbreak their iPhone may find themselves locked out of their own book collection.

Apple has allegedly built a jailbreak checker into iOS version 4 and above to see if someone's iPhone has been jailbroken with a hack known as greenpois0n, according to the Web site Social Apples. If the hack is found, then Apple reportedly blocks access to content in the latest version of the iBooks e-reader app.

The unlucky iBooks user who reported the experience on Social Apples ran into the following error when trying to access an e-book on a jailbroken device: "There is a problem with the configuration of your iPhone. Please restore with iTunes and reinstall iBooks."

Apple did not respond to a request for comment on the matter.

But comments to the story on Social Apples revealed similar tales from other iBooks users and opened up the whole issue of whether Apple is in its rights to "cripple" certain functionality on jailbroken phones.

Jailbreaking has always been a contentious issue between device makers such as Apple and their customers. A ruling from the U.S. Copyright Office last summer found that the mere process of jailbreaking does not violate federal copyright law, as Apple had asserted. But jailbreaking does violate the license agreement between Apple and its customers, which most jailbreakers accept as the cost of freeing up their devices.

The government ruling certainly doesn't stop Apple from cooking up ways to disable jailbroken features and unauthorized apps on its iDevices. But in the case of iBooks, some of the commenters argued that Apple is preventing them from accessing e-books that they legally purchased.

Technically, the point may be moot since already some hackers have developed a way around the iBooks issue through other hacks and promise that greenpois0n should soon be patched to fix the problem. But it still leaves open the question of how far Apple can and should go in its fight to stop jailbreaking, and what users can and should expect when they jailbreak their phones.

HolidayBuyer's Guide

How the new Nexus 7 and iPad Mini compare

Google's latest Nexus 7 is here. How do its features line up against the iPad Mini's? Let's break it down.

Last year's Nexus 7 kicked off the small-tablet movement and predated the iPad Mini, with an aggressive price and comfortable design, but a set of features that were slightly bare-bones (no rear camera). The iPad Mini offered a deeper feature set, but the new Nexus 7 has taken the lead -- at least, on paper -- once again.

The new Nexus 7 has a 1,920x1,200-pixel 16:10 7-inch display, whereas the iPad Mini has a larger 4:3, 7.9-inch display at only 1,024x768 pixels. The iPad Mini's screen was bigger and better than the original Nexus 7, but the new Nexus 7 has the clear edge here -- although color quality, brightness, and viewing angles have yet to be determined.

Excited yet?Photo by James Martin/CNET

The 2013 Nexus 7 has a 1.5Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor and Adreno 320 graphics, plus 2GB of RAM. Eric Franklin points out that these graphics match the Samsung Galaxy S4's, but the processing power isn't as impressive as an Nvidia Tegra 4 might be. In terms of gaming graphics, the Nexus 7 could have a big edge, thanks to being OpenGL ES 3.0 capable, which adds a lot of extra graphics effects to games.

The iPad Mini's processor is an A5, with performance similar to that of the fourth-gen iPod Touch and iPad 2. In short: it's a capable but older processor. And, it has only 512MB of RAM.

Storage size/price
In small tablets, price is everything. On nearly every level, the Nexus 7 offers a better deal than the iPad Mini, and its storage configurations are less of a markup.

The 16GB Wi-Fi Nexus 7 costs $229, versus $329 for a 16GB iPad Mini. The 32GB Nexus 7 is only $269 -- $40 more -- but the 32GB iPad Mini costs $429, a $100 upgrade.

The Nexus 7 also has an LTE-ready 32GB model for $349, and it's unlocked to work across Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T. Apple's LTE iPad Minis are carrier-specific. A 16GB LTE Mini costs $459, and the 32GB version costs a whopping $559. The Mini also comes in 64GB configurations.

The Nexus 7 comes in just black. The iPad Mini comes in black as well as white/aluminum.

Photo by CNET

The new Nexus 7 has a 1.2-megapixel front camera and 5-megapixel rear camera. The iPad Mini does, too. We'll see which one takes better photos and video.

Wireless connectivity
Both the Nexus 7 and iPad Mini support Bluetooth 4.0 for low-power connected wireless devices and 802.11n Wi-Fi, but the new Nexus 7 also supports NFC for near-field communication uses, like Google Wallet.

Operating system and apps
The iPad Mini currently runs iOS 6 but will get iOS 7 capability this fall, and it runs the exact same apps and features as the larger Retina iPad, minus the Retina Display. The Nexus 7 comes ready with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, a new version of Android with a few additional tweaks like multi-user settings, which also enables Bluetooth Smart, the low-energy Bluetooth element.

The iPad Mini already has Bluetooth 4.0, and iOS 7 is said to enable better support for Bluetooth accessories like game controllers and health monitors.

Apple has more tablet-optimized apps on the whole than Google, as well as a larger selection of games, but Google is making strides in gaming on Google Play.

Ports, extras
The Nexus 7 has an Micro-USB port that doubles as HDMI-out with a separate adapter. it also wireless charging. The iPad Mini has a Lightning connector for syncing and charging, and supports HDMI output, USB camera input, and SD card camera card importing with the purchase of Lightning adapter accessories. Both lack SD card slots.

Conclusion (for now)
The new Nexus 7 not only offers a better screen, processor, and bells and whistles, but it remains less expensive across the board than October 2012 iPad Mini.

The iPad Mini has a physically larger screen and the same wireless/camera capability, but it's clear that, right now, the Nexus 7 has a lot going for it. Of course, Apple's next iPads -- and perhaps a new iPad Mini -- may only be a couple of months away.

Forget wearables, how about foldables?

Editor's note: Since Samsung seems willing to take on just about any idea, Crave's Eric Mack decided to suggest some projects he'd like to see the gargantuan Korean conglomerate take on, starting with the creation of a whole new market -- foldable electronics.

For years now, Samsung and others have been teasing prototype flexible displays, and Samsung just recently introduced the first smartphone with a curved screen. That's pretty nifty, but what I'd really like to see are fully foldable (or perhaps rollable) devices. Today's tablets are pretty great, but how much better could they be if they could be folded up to slip into your back pocket?

"But what about the batteries and other components!" you might shout in disbelief.

Fortunately, LG says it's already got that covered. Time to put all the pieces together and get me a device I can fold up and stuff in my wallet -- I nominate you for the job, Samsung.

Really smart appliances

Weren't we supposed to have far more intelligent appliances by now? Where's the refrigerator that automatically orders more soy milk via Amazon Prime or texts the kale dude from the farmers market to make a house call when we're low on such key modern staples?

Why is it that the nascent Internet of Things allows me to check radiation levels in Tokyo or Seoul from my home in the mountains of New Mexico, but I don't have access to an oven that can sense when I'm burning dinner and cool itself off?

This is a problem I'd love for Samsung to solve so that the looks of pity and disgust that George Jetson shoots me in my nightmares can finally cease. Samsung sells fancy $4,000 refrigerators and we've already seen other home appliances with built-in Android interfaces. If Samsung can give us phones that track our eyes, surely some kitchen appliances that can measure how delicious (or not) their contents smell isn't far off.

Carpe hoverboard

When I was a kid in the 1980s, Robert Zemeckis, Michael J. Fox, and the rest of the "Back to the Future" crew promised us -- yes, I consider all '80s movie tropes to be binding contracts -- that we would have hoverboards by the year 2015. And yet, with just a little over a year left until that deadline, the closest we've come is the Segway.

This is totally unacceptable. Since one of Samsung's many holdings includes Everland, South Korea's largest amusement park where attractions already help kids defy gravity, and we've already seen one concept for a smartphone-controlled real hoverboard, it seems like the company might have reason to help ensure that Marty McFly is still able to win the day 18 months from now. None of us wants to live in a world ruled by Griff.

An affordable Tesla

This is a special request for our friends in Norway, where the all-electric Tesla Model S is so popular that some Norwegians are now paying even more for used models than the asking price for a new one.

Among its many subsidiaries, the Samsung Group claims Samsung Techwin, which has built everything from jet engines to military vehicles. Add to this the fact that some of Samsung's other tentacles have experience in electric car batteries and it seems like the company could give Elon Musk a run for his money, while also offering some competition that could save some money for Norwegians.

The ultimate (Android) HDTV

This one seems like a no-brainer to me. There have been years worth of rumors about Apple making an HDTV to take over the living room. Samsung already makes a wide array of televisions, and it also make Chromebooks. Why not bring the Android/Chrome experience to the HD big screen? Just give me a way to put the entire Google ecosystem on a crazy 4K screen and throw in an app called "TV" in case I went to check in with that old school medium, and Samsung might see Apple imitating it in the living room.

Space elevators

All right, so this isn't exactly an area where Samsung has specific experience, but then again, who really does? Seems like it should be within this company's capabilities to grow enough carbon nanotubes to get some sort of capsule up a space elevator and beyond the atmosphere. Samsung Group claims $470 billion in assets and 425,000 employees worldwide, so it should have enough cash on hand to hire smart people to figure out the rest of the science involved, and some marketing geniuses to sell tickets, so long as it's not the same geniuses that were behind the Galaxy S4 reveal.

A food replicator

I don't have the slightest idea how this could be accomplished, but Samsung was started way back in the 1930s as a food company, exporting fruits, vegetables, and fish to China. It branched out into confectionary equipment and flour mills and never looked back. Now that the company has grown into a tech giant, why not try to return to its roots, but with a futuristic, high-tech twist?

I understand that 3D printing could be one place to start, and I guarantee you that if Apple had a food replicator, everyone would buy it. So, there's your motivation, Samsung. Do it for your founding fathers...or just do it before Tim Cook tries it first. I'll have tea, Earl Grey, hot.

Photo by: Screenshot by Eric Mack/CNET / Caption by:

Portable 3D printers

Speaking of 3D printing, this is another area where Samsung may not have much direct experience, but at its core Samsung is a manufacturing company. In a sense, it is the manufacturing company that the whole world actually knows (sorry, Foxconn.) So it makes sense that it would be interested in this most exciting new form of making stuff. Plus, I imagine that once it's figured out how to mass produce our food replicators, this one will be a breeze. Throw in some of that foldable technology so that I can carry my 3D printer around with me and you've got a new mobile revolution on your hands.

Desalination plants to save the world

In addition to power plants of all sorts, from renewable to nuclear energy, Samsung has been known to construct a desalination plant here and there. What great timing, what with rising sea levels and all. Samsung, may I suggest striking deals with the world's underdeveloped nations to construct plants along their shores that convert all that extra sea water into fresh H2O that can be piped directly to the multitudes lacking access to clean water? Of course, you'll also have to figure out how to keep it from evaporating or eventually flowing back to the ocean, but figure it all out before Bill Gates wipes out malaria and score bonus points.

In light of increased demands from shareholders and the potential changes in the regulatory environment, this first report of the Director Notes series highlights a range of considerations for directors as they approach the assessment and oversight of their risk management programs. It begins by outlining the emerging risk management trends that senior executives are focusing on, and provides a brief overview of the regulatory context in which directors are expected to oversee risk management efforts.

Although the discussion is tailored to U.S. public companies, the considerations are equally relevant to boards of non-U.S. listed companies, including companies with listings in the United States, as well as those that have no direct U.S. nexus.

Unformatted text preview: Granville T. Woods: The Black Edison Derek W. Johnson History 106H Dr. Alpern February 7, 2008 On my honor, as an Aggie, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this academic work. In the late 1800s, a popular candidate for Congress remarkedNo one of the race [blacks] had ever reached the dignity of an inventor. 1 This quote perfectly portrays the sentiment of the post-reconstruction time period. Blacks were considered to be socially, economically, and intellectually inferior to whites. However, one man broke that mold. Granville T. Woods was one of the most prolific African American inventors of the Industrial Age, with over fifty patents to his name. 2 Although Woods came out of an extraordinary background and possessed remarkable intelligence and creativity, he never managed to fulfill the American dream. In April of 1895, Cosmopolitan Magazine published an article on Mr. Woods and posted a picture of the man. The article briefly discusses Woods heritage, which was very important at the time, and describes several of his more noteworthy patents. The main of the article is dedicated to a patent contest involving one of Woods latest inventions, an electric motor regulator. The article ends by paying Woods this compliment: Mr. Woods has a remarkably thorough knowledge of the intricate mathematics of electricity, and of legal practice respecting inventions. 3 Granville Woods had a unique background that has been questioned for years. Several sources claim that he was born on April 23, 1856, in Columbus, Ohio....

The Custard Blog

Words of wisdom from our team of online marketing experts

What 2012 Trends Are Visible Worldwide For Online PR And Social Media?

In a recent blog post, a South African communications company called Gullan&Gullan revealed its top online PR and social media trends for the upcoming year.

The firm has reportedly noticed some interesting movements in its local initiatives and on a global scale and although the findings are from another country, they can be interpreted to the UK.

Here are the trends for 2012 and we have also added in some of our own tips and expertise…

Engaging with consumers

Any reputable digital marketing firm knows how beneficial social media marketing is. However, the focus is allegedly moving away from simply gaining likes, fans and followers on Facebook and Twitter; and instead interacting with consumers. It is useless to have a business profile that has a large fan base if the brand never engages.

Custard Media’s top tips to do this are;

  • Ask people to provide their own personal stories
  • Stay topical with latest events and news
  • Post competitions
  • Ask what people’s plans are for the weekend so you appear more human as opposed to commercial

Be on it regardless of the 9-5 working day

People are accessing the web at all hours of the day so a trend is to be on it and available 24/7. Conversations don’t stop just because work has finished at 5o’clock. It doesn’t mean that you need to be logged on at every single minute but you do need to be monitoring your social media profile at least a couple of times a day.

– Use a mix of online marketing techniques

Gullan&Gullan state that social media should be synchronised with web PR for the optimum profit. Here at Custard, we use an array of online marketing techniques including online PR, social media marketing services, content writing, search engine optimisation and pay-per-click. In our years of experience in the industry, it is by using a mix of methods and systems that you ultimately gain the biggest return on investment.

– Share quality content

So many consumers are online, interacting with each other and sharing funny and interesting content that there are millions available on the web. For this reason, only quality content is being passed on. It is important therefore that you publish creative, unique content that can be socially bookmarked and attracts thousands of views.

Smartphone technology

We recently reported how more and more consumers are using mobile phone technology to view content and go online. So it is key that your website and your social media profile can be viewed via a mobile phone display and that strategies are adjusted to include apps and instant messaging.

Twitter has an undeniable presence on the 'net and has grown into one of the most popular forms of social networking. People still hold on to their blogs for dear life, but some users have opted to switch to Twitter exclusively. TwitVid is attempting to uproot the ad-world, similar in the way Twitter has for the networking scene. Their new video advertising service, SocialAds, seeks to serve relevant ads that will help advertisers reach their target audiences, while at the same time, doing away with the the need of traditional, ugly, and seemingly random ads that plague all corners of the web.

By combining relevant ads and unique pricing scheme for advertisers, its looks like a win-win situation for all parties. Advertisers will pay TwitVid an amount that is determined by the number of retweets and followers generated by the ads. A follower is worth a minimum of one dollar while a retweet starts at seventy-five cents. The placement of the ads will be determined by these rates, with higher paying ads landing on TwitVid pages of celebrities, professional athletes, and anyone else who can bring the viewership to SocialAds territory. It is worth noting that advertisers can engage a request for a retweet or follow before watching the video, but users are actually given the choice to skip the prompt and continue to the video. That alone is a step in the right direction if they are interested in pleasing the end-user above all else. People have responded fairly well to the ads so far. The initial testing phase indicates that an average of 400 new followers signed up within an hour, roughly 2% of the total viewership during that period of time.

“Traditional means of monetizing video has heavily relied on pre-roll ads, which work great for premium content but can be quite suffocating for an end-user who may only be trying to watch a short video,” said Mo Al Adham, co-founder of TwitVid. “SocialAds offers an alternative advertising solution, which provides measurable value to both advertisers and viewers. Through SocialAds’ proprietary technology media viewers are exposed to social media accounts targeted to be of high interest to them. In turn, advertisers are exposed to and gain engaged customers whom, once acquired, can be communicated with as a trusted brand.”

Twitter is not without its detractors. Some people still doubt that Twitter has strong enough staying power. Others point out that the number of tweeting services has reached a point of over-saturation. This is what every startup fears: obsolescence. TwitVid can certainly capitalize on their SocialAds service, but they will still have to rely on users to produce interesting and popular content in order to demand a higher stake in the ad world and substantiate further growth. Oddly enough, this plan could work out for everyone if TwitVid can attract enough attention away from their competitors.

Terrorism Against Cuba? Attorney Leonard Weinglass Calls for the Release of Five Cuban Men Who Tried to Investigate a Series of Terrorist Bombings in Cuba

StoryOctober 29, 2002
Watch iconWatch Full Show

For more than 40 years, Cuban right-wing groups based in Miami have engaged in numerous terrorist activities against Cuba. Also against Cuban-Americans and other people who advocate a normalization of relations between the two countries and an end to the blockade.

In June 2001, Rene Gonzalez Sehwerert, Ramon Labanino Salazar, Fernando Gonzalez Llort, Antonio Guerrero Rodriguez, and Gerardo Hernandez Nordelo were convicted and will face possible life sentences in U.S. federal prison, for defending their country of Cuba from terrorists based in Miami. They spent 17 months in solitary confinement. After conviction, they were placed into Security Housing Units in total isolation, where they remain.

The five were convicted after a politically-charged trial, in which the U.S. government claimed they were engaging in espionage against U.S. military bases and threatening "national security."

As the Five maintained in their defense, they were strictly involved in monitoring the actions of the Miami-based right-wing groups. In fact, they shared information with U.S. officials when dangerous actions were planned by the terrorist groups they infiltrated.

Civil Rights Attorney Leonard Weinglass, who has joined the defense team for the five men spoke out this weekend at the rally in Washington DC about their case.

  • Leonard Weinglass, civil rights attorney.
