Mandatory Blogging?

Over the past two years, my thoughts around blogging as a learning and networking tool have been slowly evolving.

In Oct 2007, the LCB asked - Should All Learning Professionals Be Blogging? I summarized the responses in: Top Ten Reasons To Blog and Top Ten Not to Blog

At the time, while I felt that blogging was something good to do, I didn't push all that hard. But, slowly I started pointing to:
Now I'm starting to feel that blogging is such a powerful learning tool that if I was going to send an employee to a conference, I'd want them to use a blog to enhance their learning. If they were starting on some new learning activity, I'd want them to blog.

Certainly in a few cases (formal learning), I've seen blogs be mandated as part of a course. But, otherwise, I've not seen anyone making it mandatory. I'm also thinking that a conference could be a significantly better experience if blogging was essentially mandatory as part of the conference. See Reframing Conference Social Tool Participation and think about the experience if people were blogging and we used an aggregator - ideally pre and post conference as well.

Has anyone else felt this transition from blogging as a nice thing for a few people to something that you want to find ways to force on people?

And Stephen, before you complain about the words force and mandatory, understand that this already happens in classroom settings. I'm extending that same notion to other settings. But I recognize that few (if any) conference organizers would actually go so far as to make it mandatory for attendees. (Although they might if they really wanted to help attendees learn and network.)

Dave Ferguson said...

Are you maybe confusing process with product? Or have you not had a chain of command above you in a while, with Those Who Know periodically lobbing another Great Idea for the masses to absorb -- in much less time than you did yourself, and without the motivation and experience you had?

I find a good deal of value in blogging, though it hasn't eliminated dandelions from my yard or freed me from having to floss my teeth.

When I look at specific activities that have been mandated, back in my corporate days, I think of five days of Six Sigma training and the doofus examples (how many newborn babies, in a one-sigma world, get dropped on their heads by the obstetrician). I think of California's requirement that supervisors undergo two hours of sexual-harassment training, and having to ensure that the online course took two hours to complete. I think of the productivity incinerator known as performance appraisal.

I think it's appropriate to encourage people to learn, and to ask people to demonstrate in some way the value of participating in a conference. But I can't think of anything likelier to turn blogging into the flavor of the month -- and last month, at that -- than to require that everyone do it.

Next steps: earn one CEU for every 38 posts.

Blogging is an amazingly powerful learning tool. Blogs can be used in creative ways to increase collaboration and networking, and enhance formal learning. But while it can be great as part of a formal learning solution, I think it is most powerful in an informal and self-directed context.

Blogging is most effectively used for learning when I use it the way I want to use it, not how someone tells me to. As soon as it is mandatory, it is no longer a tool for informal learning but another "remedy" pushed at me by a boss or learning professional.

For me, the empowering thing about most all the 2.0 technologies is that it breaks from the "push" approach to learning and enables me to "pull" and network.

Is there a place for "mandatory" blogs in formal learning? Sure...just like any other homework assignment. It's just another tool.

Guy Boulet said...

I must agree with Kevin that as soon as you make blogging mandatory, you are formalizing what is designed to be an informal learning tool.

The key about blogging, and any other informal learning tools, is that they are available to be used "on demand", whenever required. Forcing people to blog is like forcing them to talk even if they have nothing to say. You might end up with some irrelevant posts made only to satisfy the requirement to blog.

I'd rather make the tool available and let people use them if they feel like it than forcing them to use it.

V Yonkers said...

By making blogging mandatory, you are assuming there is one use for blogs. However, in a business environment, blogs may be used for communication, the creation of a record of work, and/or learning. The learning part is more unusual especially if the blog is no more than a record of thoughts without any reflexion.

So how do you think the idea of giving each employee 20 minutes of reflection (which could include blogging) would fly? Not well in a corporate setting I think.

By the way, according to an article I read in the Financial Times a few months back, some companies are requiring their managers to blog. They do this to maintain corporate communication. However, many of the managers think it is a waste of time they can spend more productively nor do their employees read the blogs.

Tony Karrer said...

There are some really good points being made here, but let me push back on a few things.

When I'm thinking of "mandating blogging" - I'm thinking that it would be "mandated" in a couple of contexts:

a. Attending a conference - As a replacement for the report that some companies require. In other words, we expect that going to the conference you will reflect on why you are going, what you are learning there, what others should get in terms of value. I am absolutely convinced people will get significantly more value from a conference if they do that.

B. Formal Learning Setting - instead of doing written assignments - do them in a blog - get collaborative with other students via blog posts and comments.

C. Sustained Learning Activity - an employee who is going to undertake a sustained learning activity such as getting up to speed on a new area. This would journal their learning. Again a great opportunity for reflection.

Dave - you are right that some people will not like it as a tool and it will just be another form of having to do the report/assignment. But for many its this kind of push that's needed to have a chance of adoption (and I think that adoption is way below where it should be).

Kevin - I partly understand your argument but I think that it's really easy for people to take the easy way out and then not get the value. Don't you have to push somewhat? Why have assignments as part of formal learning in the first place? Why require a report for the conference? I know that this is a spectrum - but still isn't pushing MUCH harder appropriate based on your statement "amazingly powerful learning tool".

Guy - don't we force people to talk / write quite often? If they don't have anything to say - isn't that a problem? I'm okay if it's not the greatest stuff in the world, but they should have something to say. If I pay for their conference or they are trying to learn a new area - they should have something to say. Right?

Virginia - "assuming there is one use for blogs?" Not really. I think there are lots of uses. And, yes, I somewhat agree that maybe there are other ways that you could go after each of the above items (much like everyone here is arguing). But my feeling is that by not pushing hard on blogging - you somewhat cop out around the rest as well and then people do none of the above.

I completely agree that a blog that is only a record of what happened without reflection is not very valuable. I do expect reflection and thought. And, yes, that's a hurdle. But for an Instructional Designer inside a corporation - shouldn't I expect them to be capable of that reflection?

"forcing managers to blog" is probably a good argument since if people resist this (and any real work of reflection and capture) then the blog becomes just another tool for them to fill out the report.

But, I feel like there's a bit of cop-out going on here. Yes, it's a bit of a hurdle and fairly demanding. Still do we believe it's an "amazing learning tool" or not? Then if we aren't comfortable with "mandatory" how far are we willing to push?

Debora Gallo said...

As soon as i read this post i thought "hey yeah!!!" but i then took a step back and i must say that going down the mandatory road takes away from the informal - self directed aspect of blogs that make them so powerful.
I do agree that we need more blogging from conferences for example! I was looking at a recent conference here in Australia and i checked their site to see whether the presenters had blogged or even put their presentations online - nothing! All you live bloggers from US conferences have led me to expect it as a norm now ;)
I'm speaking at 2 upcoming Australian conferences and i will be posting my presentation online and I'll be trying to blog from the conference as much as i can!
Something i wouldn't have thought to do before actually starting my blog. And i started my blog thanks to you Tony!

Andrew White said...

Hi Tony, on 28th April you said

"What's the learning objective associated with this blog? I hate to be so self serving, but the objective is really to help my personal learning. To a lesser extent the learning objective is to help other people learn."

Would mandatory blogging really "help personal learning" or would the blogging just happen out of fear of the consequences of not blogging. Lets face it in the corporate world the vast majority of people would rather be home "eliminating the dandelions from the back yard" than attending training or be forced to write a blog.

I for one have just started blogging because I have seen the potential through reading this one and others. If I had have been told that I had to blog before I discovered the power of blogging for myself I would have been turned off for life. I think it’s a bit like forcing a child to eat vegetables vs. showing them that vegetables taste good by enjoying them yourself.

Thought provoking never the less.

Karyn Romeis said...

Nope. No forcing. Not ever. That would be no different from linear navigation and the "course" compulsion.

Lori Reed said...

I think it depends on the context of the learning and what your goal is by having learners blog. I don't think it is a good idea to require blogging for bloggings sake, but if you can tie it back to the transfer of learning and make it meaningful then it is a wonderful tool.

But employees need to be given time to do this if it is required. You cannot require people to do something and then tell them to find their own time. As trainers we must make sure that supervisors are aware of the extra time commitments we are placing on people outside of the classroom.

All this said I think most people shy away from mandates. Andrew had a great analogy with children and vegetables. It's better to teach by example than mandates.

For a great example of this look at the success of Learning 2.0 by PLCMC. Blogging in itself was part of the learning. This was a highly successful program and many staff still continue to blog even though they have completed the program.

Tony Karrer said...

Deb - thanks for chiming in. Nice to know that at least one person was "convinced" to blog (as opposed to mandated).

Andrew - "Would mandatory blogging really "help personal learning" or would the blogging just happen out of fear of the consequences of not blogging?"

I actually think your analogy on how to get kids to eat vegetables is right on the mark. I must admit that I somewhat force my kids. We have some kind of vegetables at every dinner and they must eat them. It's not a discussion anymore, but we did have to mandate it. 2 of the 3 kids - no issue - they've always eaten and enjoyed them. 1 of the 3 - not so much.

Now, when it comes to blogging - I would want everyone to try it - and I'm even willing to mandate it in certain context (see my comment above for examples).

Now blogging is different in that it may be limited in time frame - vegetables last a lifetime (especially lima beans).

Karyn - Really? Never? (Sidenote: I tell my kids to never say never because then someone will always have a counter example. Of course, its a bit like saying mandatory. :) Do you even get close to the line sometimes? What about if you were designing training that teaches people about blogging as a learning tool? What about if you were teaching people about collaborative learning?

Lori - no fun coming in and giving such a rational response to a polarizing question.

I agree that figuring out how employees have time is critical. Of course, if I expect that they are going to spend time learning in one way or another (see my examples) then blogging should be part of that time.

Great point on 23 Things as an example. I did something similar. And like eating vegetables, it was just part of the experience. And, I don't think that everyone needs to decide to do it after the experience - only when/if it makes sense.

Dave Ferguson said...

What a surprise that you'd "mandate" that your kids eat vegetables. Personally, I'd starve to death in a room filled with cucumbers. No doubt my disdain for sushi stems from my pre-Vatican II Fridays and my parents' fondness for salt cod and codfish cakes.

About the worst way in the world to get me to do something is to require it. (Especially if from my perspective it seems to add no value.) The IRS can manage (though I do use an accountant to keep them at bay), and in my consulting work I've had to work with more counterproductive client systems than Kansas has combines.

It seems to me that you could tease out the valuable product that you see blogs delivering -- deliberate reflection, revisiting of key issues/interests, etc. -- and highlight those ends, rather than one specific means.

Instead of a push, why not a pull? Do you mandate that people engage in professional development, or do you encourage it by, say, underwriting memberships, conferences, or workshops on a case-by-case basis?

I remember one manager who hounded me for a one-page report on every session I attended at a three-day conference. I'm pretty ready to share things I've learned; this exercise struck me as entirely about control. To my knowledge she never did anything with the reports -- other than bring up at my review that I'd been three days late in completing them.

Mandating (and I realize you were mostly musing) is much easier than, say, encouraging managers to talk with people about the conferences and formal learning they attend; to follow up; to encourage deliberate experimentation ("was there anything in the Flange Divot Management course we could use here?").

Karyn Romeis said...

Tony "A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still." Mandating something for your kids is an altogether different matter - you have a duty of care. But our learners and colleagues are not kids, they are adults and we need to treat them as such.

So, in respect of blogging, I stick by my guns. No mandating.

Kerry McGuire said...

Tony... I can't agree with mandating blogging - even if it would likely benefit the "learner". However, I can see benefit in requiring conference attendees (sponsored by their employers) to share back their knowledge. Whether that happens on a blog, wiki, team space, podcast, lunch and learn, etc. doesn't really matter. But there should be an obligation to share back with their peers.

And.. in my opinion... although this isn't widely shared (I don't think)... the share-back should go beyond just regurgitating the info.

Tony Karrer said...

This has been a great discussion. I'm now struggling a bit with some of the thoughts being expressed.

1. I'm still not sure what people think I should do to get my kids to eat their vegetables. Especially the one who doesn't seem to like anything green.

2. It seems that a lot of the disagreement is with the word mandate /mandatory. There's a spectrum from influence to mandate right? Part of the difference is how you present something. Part of it is expectation for what people will do. I've cited a few context where I think it makes a lot of sense. And I would just make it part of the experience. Is it mandatory? Well as long as the person reflects and publishes to get feedback from inside and outside the organization then I don't care how they do it. Oh, blogging sounds like a good way to do that. Is that better? Go change the word mandate to strongly influence (or give me the appropriate words) and let me know if that sounds better.

3. It seems that also it depends heavily on the specific instance and how each person judges the value of blogging in that instance. Generally it seems that you can require students to use blogs as part of a formal learning activity? Some dissension around using blogging (internal/external) part of any request to attend a conference and reimbursement? And in the case of using it as a personal learning tool for a sustained learning event (like getting up to speed on a new topic) there's less comfort in heavily influencing. Doesn't that seem backwards? Isn't the blog almost the most important in the last case. After all, the person going through the learning experience likely doesn't have anyone to really support them in the organization. Isn't blogging a fantastic tool for that? Why wouldn't you encourage people to do it? And, BTW, you can't ask them to get up to speed on a new topic and then not give them time to do so.

Doesn't this make us all pretty wishy-washy? We think it's a great tool for us - but if other people don't think it's a good idea - that's okay. Maybe it won't be good for them.

Sorry - I'm ranting now.

BTW, Kerry, I absolutely agree that regurgitating (which you often see in live blogging) is not what you are going after. As Dave said, it's reflection and conversation.

Karyn - I now have a mission to push you (and others) closer to the edge of getting people to blog. I feel like I'm failing so far.

How can I do that?

Kate Foy said...

I'm very much joying this discussion which is focussing my own reflection on a just completed project with students (higher ed). They kept a blog on their process with a final reflective round-up; I asked them to pull some quotes and focus their reflection in part on these. The results were some of the best I've ever received from a group. As one said in the reflection: 'I'll use this again. You think you remember, but you don't.' I was also able to have a conversation with them on their blogs during the project.
Yes, it's a tool ... a dynamic tool that I'll be using again in a formal (assessable) context.

Dave Ferguson said...

Tony, what you do with your kids is really your business, and I didn't mean to tell you want to do instead. That would be another unenforceable mandate...

(My own children are adults, and so any "don't want that" battles are long past. My approach most of the time was not to bother trying to make them eat anything they didn't want to. Didn't you ever read Bread and Jam for Frances?)

I think we're in agreement that management should encourage behaviors that support learning. That can include discussions about what activities to actively pursue (inside the organization or outside it), the goals of that pursuit, connections between those goals and the individual's current or desired job, and so on.

I'm not convinced that blogging is the royal road to learning, any more than Toastmasters is the royal road to speaking in public. Can it help? Sure, but there's no guarantee. I'd bet dinner for four that a vanishingly small percentage of people ordered to join Toastmasters have significantly built their speaking skills.

Here at your own blog, you often have extended discussions. Of the 15 comments here before I started this one, 12 were from 10 people other than yourself. That's a terrific exchange, though I doubt that's the norm. For me to get 15 comments, I have to go back a month, and half those are my own.

I'm not complaining (much); I'm just saying that blogging doesn't work the same way for everyone, nor does it automatically deliver the same benefits.

Tony Karrer said...

Kate - thanks for the comment - and for backing me up a little. :)

Dave - funny you would mention that book - my oldest daughter's name happens to be Frances. Love those books. Unfortunately, my middle child - who happens to be the one I mentioned in 10 Year Old's Wikipedia Update - also is the one who doesn't like any vegetables other than those loaded with carbs (corn, potatoes, etc.). Okay - to the actual topic. :)

I agree that "blogging doesn't work the same way for everyone, nor does it automatically deliver the same benefits." ... There's much more to it - and I'm sure Kate could tell us things she had to do to make it effective in her environment.

I hear you on the issue of dialog/comments. Not sure how you can get more interaction, but for me a lot of it was initially interacting via other forms.

You actually have quite good content on your blog. However, I never feel like I want to comment or post responses. Even when you cited my post. It didn't spark a response from me. Although obviously your comments here do.

Hold it, I feel a post coming on. :)

Dave Ferguson said...

You actually have quite good content on your blog.

Thank you. From the viewpoint of writing about what interests me, my Whiteboard works just fine. I'm more conscious about finding stuff, about reading elsewhere, even about commenting.

However, I never feel like I want to comment or post responses. Even when you cited my post. It didn't spark a response from me. Although obviously your comments here do.

On the one hand, it could be I'm not writing about anything you feel like commenting on. Seems reasonable. You may also prefer the conversations you launch. That's equally reasonable--if they didn't interest you, would wouldn't launch them.

Which ties back to the main theme. I think you like whacking a stick against a topic to see what happens. In other words, you value the "blog" part; the "mandatory" was the stick-whack.

Having been what GE called an individual contributor for most of my career, I'm wary of such stick-whacking when it comes from on high.

Suppose to comply with my boss, I start a blog. Amazingly, nobody comments. (Though if I comment on the boss's post, he replies...)

Have I failed in my selections? If a post is an invitation for discussion, and for six weeks straight no one discusses (except 1200 spammers), how is my Boss Blog better than a paper journal?

I know, there's the content-management part and the hyperlink part, all of are features of blog software. But they're not necessarily benefits; benefit is something defined on my own terms.

I hope it's clear I think blogging is a useful tool and can bring benefit. But mandatory blogging as part of a conference? I can think of two or three dozen colleagues who'd attend the same conference I would, and not one, so far as I know, has a blog. And quite a few don't have a laptop, which is a real impediment to blogging at the conference.

It'll Take Time

This week's Bible study tip is actually more of a challenge: consider large-scale memorization.  This can be a large number of important or favorite verses, or one to a few chapters, or even an entire book.

Why go to all the effort?  There are plenty of times when we know kind of what verse we're thinking of, but can't remember where it is in the Bible or the exact wording - this will help with that.  In addition, what if there's ever a time when you don't have access to a Bible, like if there's a natural disaster in your region?  If you have some Scripture memorized, you will have access to it that way.  Plus, the work that goes into memorizing it will mean a lot more time spent meditating on Scripture (see Joshua 1:8 and Psalm 1:1-2).

I have tried twice before to memorize the entire Gospel of John, but fell off the wagon both times somewhere in chapter four.  Now, I'm recommitting to starting up again.  Is anyone else with me - will you commit to memorizing some piece of Scripture, even a few verses or a single chapter?

Now here's a song with an equally difficult challenge: "Identity" by Kutless:

Finally, onto prayer requests. :-)  Mine for this week is: it seems like right now, a lot of people in my family and my family's sphere of friends are going through a really hard time facing various issues; please pray for God to comfort them.  Now, what can I pray for for YOU this week? :-)

Life is challenging. There is a reason your poor family decided to pool resources to send you to Law School. They didn’t send you there to take the long route- serving some stingy senior lawyer or law firm for 5-10 years before you can afford to make it on your own.  I will treat the issue of stingy senior lawyers another day.

When people ask me how it feels like to be a lawyer, I often save them from the disappointment that the truth is sure to give them; I shrug, smile and add to whatever mystery already exists in their head.
But you my faithful reader- especially you the new lawyer or law student- I will tell the truth. I want you to at least, like your banker colleagues, be able to afford to pay your own rent and buy a clean second hand car in the first to second year of your call to the Nigerian Bar.

Register your private law firm as soon as you finish and print your letter head and complimentary cards. Your cards especially should have your full and imposing title: Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. I mean a lawyer knows that’s all hot air but to a non-lawyer it makes you seem like you learnt under Saint Paul himself and have your office right in the Supreme Court. Hustling must start immediately whether you work in a law firm or not.

Learn how to eavesdrop on people’s conversation for any possible legal services they may need. Somebody’s wife was slapped. Apologize for butting in, then quickly inform them that under our legal system, that is a crime called assault. You are a lawyer and you can help them. By help you mean take their money. If they look at you funny, whip out your card. They will see that full title which is a killer. Suddenly you will appear more intelligent, more important.

When you walk into a big store, don’t just buy stuff and leave. If you can see the manager, ask if they have registered their business with the Corporate Affairs Commission. Company registration is a no-brainer. Yes serious lawyers snub it and all but what do you care? Offer to register their business for less than what your colleagues charge. The whole idea is turn over. If you have many companies to register at the same time, it won’t matter that you are charging less (and spoiling business for other hustling lawyers).

You must never ignore police stations. There is always money to be made there. Anyone who calls you a charge and bail lawyer, God will judge them harshly.  Take keen interest in the affairs of your neighbors. There is always someone dragging someone to the police station or someone being arrested for something.  Don’t wait until you are called. Go there and offer your services. Trouble is your business.

The art of securing bail is one that only the streetwise can handle.  No one will teach you that in school.  They teach you crap like ‘bail is free’ and ‘no one must be held for more than 24 hours without charge’. Bah! The Police in Nigeria don’t care what you’ve been taught, in fact, the more legal you get, the more complicated things get for your prospective client. And trust me there is nothing worse than messing up a neighbor’s case.  You don’t want to be sneaking into your own neighborhood at odd hours. I have only, in my four years of legal practice, secured one free bail. And that was only because the DPO was on the Investigating Police Officer’s (IPO) case for something else. I cashed in on his confusion and by the time he realized I was not going to give him any money, my client had been released and bond papers signed. He however took me to the side and gave me a good talking to: ‘na you make your client no give us anything abi? Ok! Ok! Ok!’

Moral of the story?  1. Common sense is more useful than law inside a Police Station. 2. You have no friends inside a Police Station. 3. Bail is hardly ever free.

You must learn how to negotiate with the Investigating Police Officer (IPO), firmly, respectfully and pragmatically. Learn this and you will become a hot cake in your community, making so much money that you won’t care if anyone calls you charge and bail.

To avoid the stereotypical look of the struggling Nigerian Lawyer- shirts that were once white, shoe soles eaten to a 45 degree angle, a heavy tattered bag containing everything from your wig and gown to dozens of company registration forms and affidavit forms- you need to also be an estate agent. You must befriend as many landlords as you can so that you will have signboards reading ‘TO LET’ on as many empty houses as possible.

Look for people trying to sell houses or land and help them aggressively market it. You never know which 10% commission will take you permanently out of poverty. When you have sold that expensive house and ride home in a Range Rover Sport (with NBA stickers in front and behind) no one will bother if you ever go to court or not. Your neighbors will hail you as you drive past: ‘Barristaa!’

It is no surprise that struggling lawyers are the most hated in their families. The reason is simple. After supporting you morally and otherwise to become a lawyer, the least they expect from you is to make reasonable contributions at family events and send money into their accounts when they call you.

God forbid that you become a struggling Nigerian lawyer. Follow my advice and your family and neighbors will think you are the best thing since point-and-kill. As always, God bless your hustle.

How to add an image in a menu in wordpress

I was working on a project that needs an image in a menu. First, I was thinking to modify the theme but it felt like it’s kinda silly to do that. I had this feeling that wordpress can support that functionality without being so geekish.

Guess What! I’m right! So now, i’ll show you how to add an image in a menu in wordpress.

  • Go to Appearance->Menus
  • Add a Custom Link
  •  Enter the url of the image when it is clicked. I only put “#” since I only wanted to show the image no redirection happening or whatsoever.
  • Here’s the interesting part. Did you know that you can put HTML tags in the Label, Yes! you read it right! You can put HTML tags in the label.  That is where you can put something like this

. You can even put the inline CSS in there. So it looks like this:
  • Then hit “Add to Menu” ! Now you are golden! Refresh your page and see the beauty of your menu!

So that’s how easy to add an image in a menu in wordpress!

Have a happy coding! Cheers! :)

Will The Real In-Memory Database Please Stand Up? Report Examines IMDS Claims

In-memory database systems (IMDSs) have changed the software landscape, making it possible to deploy ""smarter"" real-time devices and applications on QNX operating systems and sparking mergers and acquisitions involving the largest technology companies.
But these days, the database sector teems with products purporting to be IMDSs. The problem is, most of them aren't. The majority of products promoted as in-memory databases are merely old-style (on-disk) DBMSs, wearing a thin coat of IMDS paint.
McObject's new white paper, ""Will the Real IMDS Please Stand Up"", explains how to tell the difference between real and imitation in-memory database systems, and explains why it matters. This report is available for free download from McObject's Web site.
IMDSs provide the features of traditional database management systems (DBMSs)--including transactions, multi-user concurrency control, and high level data definition and querying languages--but with a key difference: in-memory databases store records in main memory, eliminating disk storage and related overhead. This enables IMDSs to offer faster performance as well as a more streamlined design and smaller code size.
But today, IMDSs' popularity has sparked a flurry of products falsely claiming to be in-memory database systems. Understanding the distinction is critical for potential users whose problem domain is best served by the technology. The differences can affect the hardware requirements (and therefore total cost of ownership), performance, time-to-revenue, and ultimately the success or failure of a solution.
Distinguishing between real and fake IMDSs often means examining the key areas of origins and wholeness. The origins of a purported IMDS can point to whether the product is truly optimized for in-memory use, and reveal whether performance-sapping ""artifacts"" remain from its original design as an on-disk DBMS. Wholeness asks the question, does this product offer a complete set of DBMS features? Developers and end-users shouldn't have to settle for less.
Prospective users can download McObject's free ""Will the Real IMDS Please Stand Up"" to help gauge whether they will obtain the hallmark IMDS benefits of fast performance and superior database efficiency from specific vendors and products often described as (or purporting to be) in memory database systems.

 April 25, 1999: Courageously Upholding Belief

April 25, 1999: Courageously Upholding Belief

The peaceful demonstration of over 10,000 Falun Gong practitioners in Beijing on April 25, 1999, was the beginning of 15 years of non-violent resistance to the brutal persecution of a group of people who follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The event marked a turning point for participants and witnesses alike, and also made a long-lasting impact on the rest of the world.

Persecution Driven by Fear
Contrary to conventional understanding, the full-blown persecution of Falun Gong was not triggered by the April 25 peaceful demonstration. Rather, the persecution was the inevitable result of the nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at odds with Falun Gong's principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.

Mr. Zhong Weiguang, a Chinese scholar and author living in Germany, began researching Falun Gong after the April 25 demonstration. He first saw news of the event in newspapers in Germany.

Zhong was very impressed by the fact that over 10,000 of his fellow Chinese citizens overcame the generally pervasive fear of the regime and went to the Zhongnanhai central government compound to call for the restoration of their right to freedom of belief and practice. He found this all the more notable, given the relatively recent horror of the 1989 Tiananmen Massacre.

Mr. Zhong remarked, “Over several decades, the Chinese Communist Party had not only completely shattered age-old Chinese tradition, but had ploughed it under repeatedly to reinforce the results. Against this backdrop, Falun Gong emerged! I was stunned, pleasantly surprised, but puzzled. Many overseas Chinese didn't know where [Falun Gong practitioners'] strength came from. I didn't know then that the core teaching of Falun Gong was an emphasis on Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I later realized that such a peaceful and rational protest couldn't have been achieved if their faith was not deeply embraced by their souls.”

Falun Gong practitioners held an orderly and peaceful demonstration in Beijing on April 25, 1999, to petition their government for a restoration of their right to practice

Zhong added, “Falun Gong is beneficial to any society. It doesn't have any political pursuit, nor does it demand any specific form of society. Why did the CCP have to launch the persecution? It is because the CCP relies on lies and violence. In contrast, Falun Gong emphasizes Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Compassion and forbearance are intrinsically opposite to violence. The existence of Falun Gong defies the two core pillars of the CCP. Falun Gong strives for a higher moral ground, which of course would not be tolerated by the CCP.”

The Peaceful Demonstration “Was Only a Natural Response”
Mr. Shi Caidong was a PhD candidate at the China Science Academy in 1999. He was one of three Falun Gong representatives brought inside the Zhongnanhai compound when then Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji invited them to sit down with him and discuss the reasons for the gathering. Mr. Shi now lives in New York.

He said, “In summary, we made three requests: To have the practitioners who were arrested in Tianjin released, to have a legitimate cultivation environment, and to lift the ban on Falun Gong books.”

Looking back on the events of April 25, 1999, Mr. Shi stated calmly, “When a person really understands the truth and can tell right from wrong and kindness from evil, his choice will not change due to pressure or personal gain. If we could go back in time, I would still step forward to safeguard the truth and fight for the right for all to be good people.”

When asked why Falun Gong has attracted so many highly educated people, Mr. Shi said he thinks that besides people's innate kindness and longing for Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, the deeper reason is that Falun Gong reveals universal truths: "I was born with the innate desire for seeking the truth. I wanted to know how and why, but there were so many puzzles that I could not find answers to. Falun Gong resolved all of my questions about life and the universe. After learning the truth, my heart became serene, calm, and joyful.

“On April 25, 1999, I did not think that I was making some sort of choice. Under the circumstance that facts were distorted and the truth was defamed, the demonstration was only a natural response.”

A Major Turning Point for Some Practitioners
Ms. Wu Yanxia, a former senior lecturer at Tianjin City Landscape School, didn't participate in the April 25 demonstration. However, the event prompted her to take a new look at her path of cultivation.

“I had cultivated for over two years by then. However, I had been a CCP member for 26 years and was severely brainwashed. Even though I knew that it was wrong that Falun Gong was mistreated, the CCP's teaching of 'align with the Party line' had such a restraint on me. Who dared to resist all those 'struggles' the CCP ran during its rule? We were all afraid of being implicated. I was so impressed that so many people dared to step forward and make a stance.

“Even though I didn't go to Beijing on April 25, 1999, the event inspired me and enabled me to break away from the CCP's spiritual shackles. I was subsequently able to safeguard Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance with dignity,” Ms. Wu added.

Ms. Jin Xiulan, who is also from Tianjin and who participated in the April 25 appeal, shared that a policeman said to her some time after the event: “You [Falun Gong practitioners] appeared from nowhere and dispersed in a short time. Even the military wouldn't be as disciplined as you were. We have all seen how good you are. When history turns a new page, I will also cultivate. April 25 will gain an important place in Chinese history.”

On April 25, 1999, Lucy Zhou was in Ottawa, Canada. She and her husband, upon hearing the news of the peaceful appeal, immediately wrote a letter to the Chinese Embassy in Canada. They have been dedicated to clarifying the facts about Falun Gong and the persecution ever since.

Prior to that day, they had never thought that they would become the target of persecution because of their belief. Ms. Zhou shared, “I have to live with principles. There has to be justice in society. The April 25 event helped me to improve from a moral standpoint. I broke away from being a selfish person to a selfless one, willing to sacrifice herself for others and the common good. How precious was that?”

Practitioners' Perseverance Inspires Chinese Society
Many may think that Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is only a slogan. Who can really sustain those principles in the face of the very real threat of imprisonment, forced labour, or even death? Yet, Falun Gong practitioners' 15-year-long peaceful resistant shows that it can be, and is, done.

Mr. Zhong Weiguang said, “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is the core value of Falun Gong practitioners. I have observed them for a long time. Their peaceful resistance hasn't died and is still evolving. I can see more the positive impact of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and how it can fundamentally change a person.”

He concluded, “Contemporary Chinese people have lost their roots. Morality has declined rapidly, especially during the recent half-century. In the face of the brutal persecution, with the lies of the CCP, the misunderstanding and distortions, Falun Gong didn't collapse, but has spread around the world. Practitioners have filed complaints against the main perpetrators of the persecution. They empower Chinese people to attain spiritual independence by quitting the CCP and its affiliated organizations, based upon the inspiration provided in the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. This is such an innovative example of justice!”

Women May Prefer Romantic Partners Who Resemble Their Brothers

Thursday 18/May/2017 - 11:29 AM
Sada El Balad
Medics Today

You may have heard the old adage that women look for partners that remind them of their father، but a new study has suggested that may be a bit askew، and it’s actually their brother that women strive to replicate in a romantic partner. Of course، before you get too grossed out the evidence is weak، only slightly higher than “chance” and is likely just further evidence to human narcissism، after no one looks more like you than a sibling.

The study، published online in Evolution and Human Behaviour Journal، found “clear evidence for perceptual similarity in facial photographs of a woman’s partner and her brother”، with likeliness that a woman’s partner would resemblance her brother being a little bit over chance، 27 percent، The Independent reported. According to the researchers، this finding may back the idea that “familiarity is attractive” and that، in reality opposites don’t attract as often as we like to think they do.

"[Our findings] were not a rule or true of every woman but we do find that، at levels greater than chance، partners did show some subtle resemblance to the women's brothers،" lead researcher Tamsin Saxton told The Independent.

The study involved having strangers look at a photograph of a woman’s brother، and then choosing an image of a man from a pile which they believed most resembled the brother. The images were made up of three non-related strangers and one photograph of the woman’s romantic partner. Ultimately، 27 percent of the time، the volunteers chose the woman’s romantic partner as the man who most resembled the woman’s brother. The volunteers were not aware of the identity of any of the men، and blindly gave their opinion on which men most closely resembled one another.

Dating a man who somewhat resemblances your brother in no way means that you want to date your brother. If anything، it’s only further indication that you want to date yourself، but instead you’ve settled for someone who resembles the one person in this world who is most genetically similar to you. Psychologists suggest that we not only go for a partner that is similar to us in looks، but also in personality and beliefs.

Psychology Today reported that we may be drawn to like-minded individuals because it affirms that our own characteristics are not only normal، but also desirable. In addition، a 2005 study found that certain qualities، such as having similar personality qualities، such as being anxious، extroverted، or conscientious، resulted in happier marriages among newly weds.

Of course، if you’re not entirely sold on the idea that we’re attracted to similar mates because we’re all giant narcissists، how about this. One study suggested that we are more likely to go after someone similar to ourselves because we’ve accepted that most people aren’t capable of making big personality changes. That’s why we go for those who are compatible with what we need now، because ultimately، while opposite may have that instant romantic spark، it's the like-minded couple that really stand the test of time.

University of California

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
If Sauron gets his hands on the seal of the University of California, he will use it to summon his master Oprah Winfrey. Shown here is the very moment Sauron last used the seal to summon Oprah, at the end of the Second Age. The hand of Oprah can be seen breaking through from the void in which she was imprisoned by the Valar.

The University of California was founded in 1868 by giant reptilian hippies from the planet Zarkon. It is the 56th State of the United States of America, and owes its economic success to the fact that it is the only state of the union to abolish private property and become a communist utopia. The university is broken up into campuses, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. These are summarized below. Study them carefully before choosing one.

The beauty of USC.

USC stands for University of Southern California and it is currently the best college in California. Mostly known for Sports, USC has one of the best programs in the United States!

UC Berkeley

  • Strength: 20
  • Intelligence: Its Over 9000..!!
  • Constitution: We the people...
  • Dexterity: Less than the cops
  • Wisdom: Sophomoric
  • Charisma: 16

A cartoon centipede reads books and types on a laptop.
Camp Crystal is a popular location referred to Stanford students by their friends at Cal...yes....yes....

Berkeley is a chaotic neutral rogue/barbarian. It has a +2 Rod of Lordly Might, which comes in handy for smiting wayward hippies, however,[ its unstable alignment makes it dangerous to have at your back. Also, at 392% Asian-American and 2% black, Berkeley is one of America's most diverse institutions of higher education. It plans on moving to China having only accepted Chinese immigrants for the fall 2007 semester; however, due to Berkeley's integration with the Internet, there are fears that the Chinese government will cast a firewall (thus igniting all the pot) around it. That would be bad. The discovery of ecstasy, among other things, made it one of the worst public university known to man (ironic, seeing as how it is rated the best public university in the world).

Sather tower stares down the San Francisco Bay
Sather Tower plans it's attack on Stanford

Berkeley (or also known as University of California to idiots) is widely known for its bitter rivalry with Stanford. Stanford of course regards itself as the best school in the area even though Berkeley has beaten Stanford 7 times in the last 8 years. Yeah, 8 years. Every year a friendly game of football is played between the two and the winner takes the Stanford Axe. The axe (also known as Thor) is said to have been smelted from the beard of God himself and carved by the dashboard of E-40's 1969 Charger. And for any of you who regard Stanford University as a better school, why don't you use your awards from the Manhattan project to prove yourself right? Oh yeah, that's right, that was Berkeley (And also the University of Chicago) who did that.

This man created the first sustaining nuclear reactor. Where was he from? Was it Stanford? Oh yeah, he was from Berkeley. He pities your school.

Although the academic rank is lesser than Stanford, Berkeley has had a record 65 Nobel Laureates while Stanford only has 16. Fellate me, Stanford Douchebags. The downside to such great professors is that they don't feel a need to teach so all classes at Berkeley are taught by upperclassmen who come from the lower classes and trade teaching for units in what amounts to small intimate groupings of 500 or so. To keep the classes diverse, at least one registered Republican is required in each class which was a new rule set forth by California's current Govenator in his bid to uphold diversity.

Finally balling up and kicking those hippies out of the trees
May 2009 Budget update: due to state budget crisis, the entire budget of the UC Berkeley campus has been reduced to three dollars. This has resulted in a major cut in staffing and student body size. The entire staff will consist of a small experimental rodent named Schwarzy after the current governor of California. The student body has barred from central campus and can now be found drinking off campus. Tuition has been doubled and the accounting department has the sole function of funding the bars for the barred students, as well as coffee shops off central campus. The four clocks on Sather Tower, once only slightly dissimilar, have now gone so completely out of sync that when the North clock shows 3 pm, the West shows 7 pm.

UC Davis

  • Strength: 18% alcohol by volume.
  • Nose: plummy, hints of oak, kiwifruit, and cut grass.
  • Flavor: mildly acid with deep tannin structure.
  • Mouth feel: grassy.
  • Favorite Pasttime: cow tipping

Davis can be enjoyed now [citation needed], but will improve with age. It has been shown to cause cancer in fewer than 5 percent of rats. After snorting, one can play Katamari Damacy in God-mode, throwing the resulting katamari into the ocean to prevent global cooling.

UC Irvine (University under Construction Indefinitely)

  • Strength: 10
  • Intelligence: 20
  • Dexterity: 22
  • Constitution: 16
  • Agility:9
  • Ants In Pants: 1,2,3 "Holy Shit!! (Sprays Insecticide Furiously on Self.)

Irvine is a level 20 Elvish Wizard. It possesses the Amulet of Yendor, which grants it the power to teleport out of the Community Portal at will, but also drains 10 magic points per turn. Irvine is powerful, but beware, only one of you can leave the Portal with the Amulet. Irvine is an ally of the Mickey Mouse Alliance as of 2009 when UCI reached an accord with Disney's California Adventure, yet Irvine has also been known to house known terrorist Don al-Duck, making for a very trying and unorthodox alliance. It is rumored that this alliance only occurred because of a bribe from California Adventure, in which the Hindu Pimp sent Irvine President Allah his #1 slut, Colette Bickford McGreggorwilner O'Malleyfax-O'Brien-O'Timms Smithiggens Spongebob Mandrilpants. It is reported that Allah was so baked after bein' wit Mandrilpants, that he signed the treaty papers with his nose. In 2010, UC Irvine announced a formal suspension of al-Duck's campus terrorist group. The now-suspended al-Duck martyr's muslim stew-dent union has gone underground, now that even Allah doesn't approve of their activities.

  • Strength: Many Asians.
  • Weakness: Many Asians
  • Height: 5 feet 8 inches
  • Weight: 160 pounds
  • Finisher: The Bruin Bash

UCLA is the third best campus of the University of California, if not the fourth or fifth. However, it is not exactly a campus but rather a highly technologically advanced cyborg bruin that breeds highly nutritious students for trojans to eat for brunch and linner. It is in fact, the crowning jewel to the empire owned by Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro who are the bruin's promoters and use it as a mixed martial arts champion. Joe Bruin's record is 3252-0. Including an impressive victory over Brock Lesnar and the Incredible Hulk's lovechild, Brulk.

Police force that cracks down on students and the homeless alike, and a crapload of college basketball championships behind John "Morning" Wooden and Benedict Howland (as he is known by University of Pittsburgh supporters).

UC Merced[es]

  • Strength: ability to curl up into a little ball to defend itself from predators.
  • Weakness: vulnerable to bright lights.
  • Special Ability: sonar, GPS system, cup holders

Merced is well camouflaged in its own habitat, and able to endure long periods without water. If you are trapped, you can throw it at your enemies and retrieve it later. Actual existence debatable.

UC Riverside

  • Special Ability: good with children.
  • Other Features: broad powerful shoulders, winning smile, manly chest. Also located in the middle of nowhere.
  • Height: 6 foot 2 inches

Riverside is a life-size statue of Tom Jones, carved out of dilithium crystal. It is very heavy, but of high intrinsic value, and can be exchanged for many useful goods and services.

Takes forever to get to, yet provides uselessness in the end to take home.

UC San Diego

UCSD is the second transition metal of the fifth period. It is relatively inert, but mildly radioactive, and decays back into Riverside with a half-life of 1.3 million years. Its main uses are in the tobacco industry, as a catalyst, and to coat the outer surface of Michael Jackson. It is otherwise completely useless. Although the social scene can be lacking, UCSD is included in the "top 3" following right behind UCLA in college rankings.

University of California San Francisco

  • Surface Temperature: 50 degrees Kelvin.
  • Composition: mostly liquid hydrogen with occasional ammonia crystals and a hard rocky core.
  • Weather: blustery.

To use San Francisco's gravitational field to slingshot out of the solar system, you must be traveling at between 50 and 60 kilometers per second, and able to achieve a stable orbit.

UC Santa Barbara

  • Habitat: under the bark of trees, in small crevices, and, where conditions are wet enough, the forest floor.
  • Breeding: lays one pale blue egg, typically in a pile of decomposing vegetable matter. 1/3 chance children will have AIDS or venereal disease
  • Call: an intense tintinnabulating drone.

UC Santa Barbara is small enough to carry around with you, but its soft body can easily be inadvertently damaged. You would be well advised to store it in a rigid case. Speak to it and caress it frequently, and it will emit cooing sounds of delight. It is also known to reproduce very fast. It is the best of the UCs but kept quiet for fear of too many inhabitants.

Like Berkeley, the homeless population there abounds. However, unlike Berkeley the homeless people are more evolved and carry around electrical cords to plug into the outside of apartment buildings. This enables them the use of toasters, generators, and cars. USCB also includes novelty pirate, a drunk in public charge, and alcoholism. It also comes with a white albino raccoon.

update: the albino raccoon sadly passed away in 2007. You will now find the ghost of a albino raccoon haunting campus.

UC Santa Cruz

  • Weight: 2 kilos, but it is a bit stem-y .
  • Type: Aztec Gold Label Reefer
  • Shape: roughly cubical.
  • Composition: a mysterious silvery metal.
  • Intelligence: \omega -420

UC Santa Cruz was found under the face of a retreating glacier during the golden age of Marijuana. Under the full moon, it takes the shape of a giant bong. When humans touch it, they are able to see distant things very clearly, and read the minds of others. With these visions come others - some of things long past, some of things that are yet to be - but these visions are unclear and disturbing. Frequent contact with Santa Cruz extends life far beyond its natural span, but also leaves one with unbearable longings, as if for a world that no longer exists.

Phenomenological Examination of UC Santa Cruz Student Psychology and Behavior

They say such "hippi-fied" slang such as, "oh how pretty and nice, like a bong hit in the afternoon, why it's so nice, yes sir, take notice, slugs have descended upon the network webs. darkness and faint dim lights now glow in strange line formations between communication. slug migration and stability are the now the present state of the netted ether" and make you wonder whether you are the slug, or whether I am. After college they often retreat to the forest so to avoid the dangerous, much despised, and much much too real and sober "real world" which when uttered in the presence of them makes them incoherently mutter words like "work" or "social oppression" or "Foucault." Once in the forest they become part of the anarchist community, referred to by students as the annie-ville, that started in the 60s.

The Professors are all completely stoned so classes are never required and so never attended to, except for when students are low on weed and can remember the day of the week when they wake up. This crucial difference results in higher class attendance for at least a week but once the next big shipment of weed arrives in the "bartle le scrive" van of happiness, life for students regresses (or progresses) to the previous state of complete, utter, and mystifying stonyness. This stonyness state of consciousness goes on fairly consistently throughout the year, and it seems to have what santa cruz philosophers call a "gravity nugget of consciousness", named so because of the observed behavior of the attention mechanism of the brain, which when stoned perpetually lead to and insist a continual focus on all things relating to weed and not much else. Other "thought metathoughts" or "thought bookmarks" sometimes do take place, but they are generally perceived of in the context of weed.

The favorite classes at UCSC are "Phenomenology to Poststructuralism" and pretty much everything offered by the History of Consciousness department, not because the classes are necessarily better, but because the department's name is so academically slick sounding. Anything slick sounding makes student's suspicious at first, not because of it being slick, but because they're simply suspicious, in general because of what they learned in those classes. Despite their suspicions though, they nevertheless still enroll in the classes and yet still do not go, except for the first day and the last.

UC Jackson

... Yeah..well.. School Budget cuts... yeah... Oh well.

Never heard of them. May be a proposed university campus, same applies for the UC projects put on hold in Madera or Tulare.

UC Sunnydale

  • Strength: Look, we all know you're going to have to transfer out in season seven, so let's make things simple and choose another campus right now, k?

Whenever you do anything at night, roll on the encounter table to see what vampire or nasty creature attacks you. On a roll of 4 on a d4 Buffy also appears. If this is season four, military vampire hunters appear on a roll of 6 on a d6. You die. You become a vampire. Go play Call of Cthulhu.

When you have a degree from each of the UC campuses, you may combine them to form Voltron. Voltron has all of the powers of each campus, and none of the weaknesses. To form Voltron, pile your degree certificates together, and point the apex of your power crystal at them. When it begins to glow, raise your arms vertically above your head, and shout "By Gorthaur's hammer, you will be avenged!" Sometimes it's really hippie from all the contact high coming from the UC Santa Cruz-derived powers, but otherwise is pretty sweet.

At this point Voltron should appear. If he does not, go back and make sure you completed all eleven degrees. Check that you activated UCLA's berserker frenzy before level 5, that Santa Barbara is still alive, and that Irvine's amulet was not a cheap plastic imitation.

You may only form Voltron once every 500 turns. Do not do so until your need is great.

Extension campus of UCP located in the city of Ness, California. Located along a longitudinal shaft extending over 10 inches, UCP-ness has a high female to male student ratio.

The official University of California mascot is the Yellow Banana Slut. As a result, their cheerleaders have the lowest ratio of clothing to skin shown in the NCAA. Parents are encouraged to bring home "Bananasian Slut" (as the mascot is fondly called by alumni) paraphernalia including the prominently marketed Vibrating Banana Slut. These are happily given to girls of all ages, and are popular gag gifts for nerds of math camp and sluts of cheerleader camp. Many parents have objected to this mascot, claiming that it is "degrading to women" and "blatantly offensive," but the president of UC Santa Cruz reportedly replied, "Fuck off, you crazy feminists. The only thing funnier than my jokes is the women's rights movement."

Press Release

Committee Leaders Seek Answers on Armendariz Cancellation

WASHINGTON, DC – Energy and Commerce Committee members are seeking answers after former Regional Administrator for EPA Region 6 Al Armendariz abruptly canceled his planned appearance at today’s Energy and Power Subcommittee hearing just hours before he was scheduled to testify.

Full Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI) raised key questions about the decision along with his plans to get to the bottom of Armendariz’s no-show during his opening statement at today’s hearing. “Why, several weeks after he had agreed to testify, did he retain counsel and withdraw?  The EPA did not make a witness available to appear alongside Dr. Armendariz today. Did the Obama administration urge him not to appear? I have in my hand copies of letters we intend to send today to the EPA and to Dr. Armendariz to ask those questions. Congress and the American people deserve answers about this administration’s policies and practices, and we intend to get them,” said Upton.

Chairman Upton, Energy and Power Subcommittee Chairman Ed Whitfield (R-KY), along with other members of the committee sent letters today to Dr. Armendariz and EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson regarding Armendariz’s last minute decision not to testify.

The letters request disclosure of any communication between Armendariz and the EPA or the White House concerning his invitation to testify at today’s hearing.

DuoTangle: Jonqal & Opus

It's often a good idea to place limits on yourself. It encourages creativity. Necessity is the mother of invention and all that. This week's zentangle challenge is to use only two tangles, and only Jonqal and Opus, two very different tangles. I thought it was going to be weird. Wrong again! Their very diffent-ness makes them work well together. Harmony in diversity and all that.

I just had a very busy three days (one at an art show) and was hardly home at all. I was quite happy to get back in the studio and just draw for a while. I was so pleased with my first effort for this challenge that I really went to town with it.  I've done five tiles so far and may do more. Here are three of them.

I didn't put anything else in the stripes or spaces. I thought that would be
using other tangles so I tried Opus in Jonqal's stripes, and Jonqal stripes
in Opus' spaces. Later, looking at examples of Opus I realized that
it would be okay. I remembered that varying the scale can
have interesting effects. I tried it on a full tile.

I looked up Opus on Zentangle (to see about what's in the spaces)
and noticed that the ends are droplet shaped, not the tiny circles
I've been doing. I tried that next. I even did doubles. That shape
has a lovely elegance to it and think I'll do it from now on.

Thanks again Laura! You're always full of good ideas!

  1. You have such lovely ideas! I really like the double drops on the last tile.

  2. I am in love with these. so direct and beautiful!

Slaven Bilic the RockStar Manager

Slaven Bilic the RockStar Manager

Any club that makes four close season signings and all four pay off will inevitably have a good season. Slaven Bilic signed Dmitri Payet, Manuel Lanzini, Angelo Agbonna and Michail Antonio and they have all slotted seamlessly into the first team contributing immensely.

Payet with 9 goals 9 assists, Lanzini with 6 goals 2 assists and Antonio has 6 goals and 5 assists. That’s an astonishing 21 Premier League goals and 17 assists from 3 new signings at a combined cost of £30m. Bilic has probably achieved the best impact on a (in Premier League terms) minuscule budget of £30m.

Dimitri Payet stands out as the signing of the season at £10.6m from Olympic Marseille. He has become West Hams talisman and orchestrator of almost all their good attacking moves. Payet has carried the attacking threat and seems to thrive in his role as the talisman, he never shirks in his duties and takes the battle to the opponents.image

The Centre Back Angelo Ogbonna has also been key in the 8 clean sheets, commanding the back 4 with his title winning nous and credentials from his last club Juventus. Ogbonna has strengthened the spine of the team and scored the all important winner against Liverpool in extra time in the FA Cup.

Most importantly for West Ham fans they are playing the “West Ham way” which is open expansive football that is attacking and aesthetically pleasing. The main criticism of the previous manager Sam Allardyce was his crude cynical style of play which home fans felt was boring and un-ambitious to watch.

West Hams last season at the Boleyn ground before their move to the Olympic Stadium has created a positive vibrant effervescent atmosphere, with most games sold out for people to get their last experience at the historic Boleyn ground. West Ham this season have averaged a 99.8% attendance record this season the highest in percentage terms in the Premier League.

Bilic was a stylish centre back in his time at Everton and West Ham in his 87 games in the Premier League. Bilic also has 44 Croatia caps scoring a handy 3 goals from centre back, helping them to the World Cup Semi Finals in 1998, losing to the eventual World Cup winners France.

Bilic has knitted together a good solid unit at West Ham, with players like goalkeeper Adrian and full back Aaron Cresswell having arguably their best seasons at West Ham. Mark Noble is also arguably playing his best football in his ten years at West Ham. There is a balance to the team and a growing belief in their methods, with their Quarter Final replay at the Boleyn ground against Man United in the FA Cup, they are still within a chance of winning a trophy.

With a very limited remit of just keeping West Ham in the Premier League from owners David Sullivan, David Gold and Karen Brady, Bilic has surpassed all expectations with their current 5th place. Bilic’s record at West Ham 42 games played Won 19, Drawn 15, and Lost 9 games with a win percentage (across all games) of 45% is mightily impressive.

Bilic speaks 4 languages Italian, English, German and his native Croatian, Bilic also holds a Law degree, and his open often brutal honesty has been a breath of fresh air in the Premier League, he steers clear of “manager speak” and gives open direct post match interviews.

Bilic with no previous managerial experience in the Premier League has taken to it like a duck to water. His managerial experience at Hadjuk Split, the Croatia national team, Lokomotiv Moscow and at Besiktas has held him in good stead.

Bilic deserves immense praise for both his style of football and his expert transfer signings which showcase both his intelligence and his tactical awareness and nous of solving West Hams problems in a single transfer window with a “mere £40m.”

In terms of the bigger picture and increasing the exposure of West Ham, in order to sell out the larger 70,000 Olympic Stadium, Bilic has delivered in a manner even the owners couldn’t have envisaged.

Featherbed Lane

Featherbed Lane

Size: 0.8ha

Designation: Local Wildlife Site Ep102

Grid Reference: TQ 484 946 {phocamaps view=link|id=34|text=Map}

Owner: Essex County Council

Access: Public Access

Site Description: The lane connects an area of recently planted woodland and the Lambourne End Centre (with a significant veteran tree population) to the ancient woodland of Hainault Forest in the south.  Hedgerows branch off to the east and west giving the landscape good connectivity for ground dwelling mammals.

The proximation to Hainault Forest and the 40 veteran trees found on the lane make it likely that the lane is used as a highway for bats.

The northern half of the lane is characterised by Field maple, Elm (some dead, which provide a good habitat for insects), Blackthorn and Bramble.

The southern half of the lane is characterised by coppiced Hornbeam and pollarded Oak, occasional Ash, some Holly and hedgerow species including Hawthorn.

There are a number of very significant veteran trees including a very old ash and hornbeam trees. Evidence of Badgers has been seen and the lane is known to be good for Bluebells in the spring.
