Template:Infobox Movie
Finding Nemo is a computer-animated film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released to theatres on May 30, 2003 by Walt Disney Pictures and Buena Vista Distribution.
Finding Nemo set a record as the highest grossing opening weekend for an animated feature, making $70 million (surpassed in 2004 by Shrek 2). It was, for a time, the highest grossing animated film of all time, eclipsing the record set by The Lion King. In less than four weeks of the release of Shrek 2 in 2004, it surpassed Finding Nemo's domestic gross. By March 2004, Finding Nemo was one of the top ten highest-grossing films ever, having earned over US$850 million. The film received an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film in 2004. The film also received a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award in 2004 for favorite movie.
The title character's name alludes to Captain Nemo, the submarine captain in two of Jules Verne's novels: Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and The Mysterious Island.
The movie was released on a two-disc DVD on November 4, 2003.

Spoiler warning: Plot or ending details follow.
The film tells the story of a widowed clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks). Because of an incident that killed his wife Coral and all their children except Nemo, Marlin is an overprotective and restrictive father to his only son. Because of this, Nemo ventures out into open water to prove to his father that it is safe to do so. Marlin, in this case, was correct, as Nemo is scooped up and taken to an aquarium in a dentist's office in Sydney, Australia. Thus it is up to Marlin and his newfound guide, Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres), a blue tang fish suffering short-term memory loss, to bring Nemo back.
Marlin is forced to venture into an unknown and dangerous world which he never dreamed of entering. Dory helps Marlin realize he has been too restrictive on his son and must make amends. Nemo, meanwhile, gets involved in a plot with the other fish in the aquarium to escape from the dentist's office and return to the ocean.

Wider effects of the film
The film's prominent use of clownfish prompted mass purchase of the animals for children's pets in the United States (even though the movie portrayed the use of fish as pets negatively). At the same time, the film had a central theme that "all drains lead back to the ocean." (A main character escapes from imprisonment by going down a sink drain and ending up in the sea.) This allegedly caused many children to flush their living fish down toilets in imitation of the picture. Major sewage companies teamed with Disney to release press statements that attempted to address the situation with humor. "Although all drains DO lead to water," they read, "said water always passes through a turbine before leading to the ocean. As such, in real life the film would more accurately be titled 'Grinding Nemo'" [1] (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2003/06/05/state2022EDT0148.DTL).
French children's book author Franck Le Calvez sued Disney, claiming that the story and the characters were stolen from his book Pierrot Le Poisson-Clown (Pierrot the Clownfish). The idea of Pierrot was protected in 1995 and the book was released in France in November 2002. Franck Le Calvez and his lawyer, Pascal Kamina, demanded from Disney a share of the profits from merchandising articles sold in France. Le Calvez and Kamina lost the lawsuit on March 12 2004, but intend to file an appeal on October 5.

As usual for Pixar movies, it is packed with subtle references and sight gags:
Mr. Ray sings a song, "The Zones of the Open Sea" (about the different biological regions of the ocean), which is a pastiche of Tom Lehrer's periodic table song.
Mount Wannahockaloogie ("wanna hawk a loogie") is the "mountain" in the dentist's aquarium. "Hawk a loogie" is American slang for expectoration, a common occurrence in a dentist's office. When Nemo jumps through the "Ring of Fire" at the summit of Mount Wannahockaloogie, he earns himself the new name Sharkbait.
The obligatory A113 inside joke: the scuba diver who briefly blinds Marlin uses a camera with model code "A-113".
There are two nods to director Alfred Hitchcock:
The overhead shot of the seagulls gathering to dive for Marlin and Dory stylistically echoes a similar gull scene in The Birds.
In the dentist's office, two shots of dangerous brat Darla's face are accompanied by the shrieking violin chords from the shower scene in Psycho.
The dentist's office has a picture of "Motif Number 1" hanging on the wall, a tribute by director Andrew Stanton to his hometown of Rockport, Massachusetts.
Another nod to Stanton's roots: When the story of Marlin's journey is being spread throughout the ocean, one of the creatures telling the tale is a lobster with a Boston accent who uses the common local adjective, wicked. ("It's wicked dahk down there, you can't see a thing...") Not surprisingly, this lobster was voiced by Stanton himself.
Two of Dory's several misnamings of Nemo are "Chico" and "Harpo," references to the Marx Brothers.
One of the toys that can be seen in the dentist's office is a Buzz Lightyear action figure. There is also a Mister Incredible comic book based on the then-forthcoming Pixar movie The Incredibles.
The often recurring uses of the number 42, such as in P. Sherman's address and the time it takes the dentist to use the restroom, are likely a reference to Douglas Adams' radio play/novel The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, in which that number plays a prominent role in the meaning of the universe.
The great white shark's name is Bruce, which is also the name given to the mechanical shark used to film the movie Jaws. Bruce speaks with an Australian accent, so he is also likely a reference to a Monty Python sketch about a group of Australian college professors, all of whom are named Bruce.
In the scene where Bruce tries to eat Dory/Marlin, Bruce says "Here's Brucie!" after popping through the door, in a reference to Stanley Kubrick's film The Shining.

"Experience a soul searching and inspirational 30-day drift boat journey down the longest undammed river in the lower 48. Connect with colorful characters, get lost the cast of a fly rod, and savor fireside stories in this heartfelt river adventure.
In a nutshell~ take the journey, get sand spit in your face while trying to tent in an open sandbar along side the river, feel the sunburn on your cheeks from days on end rowing, hop on a little Cessna and get a first hand view of the terrain that this great undammed river molds and shapes day to day. But don't expect the high-end energy 220 beats per minute soundtrack we have been accustomed to in past venues. This journey takes its time. Think more like Jack Johnson acoustic and unplugged, but not at Red Rocks, more like in your back yard campfire, way before he was discovered. This trip takes you back to when the West was still wild and you can get that feeling of discovery around every bend.
Now I gotta see it! Thanks for the post Brian, I won't force you to come to Idaho but I will promise an amazing fishing experience. So make your plans for next summer, and COME ON OUT!
I will definitely try to make my rounds out west> My boss says I can book a few 'guy weekends'. I hope to see friends in Montana and Colorado and now, Idaho to meet you and get my fish on!!!

European Theater of Operations (1942-1944), All-American Festival (1983)
The first teams based in Ireland were the European Theater of Operations Football Championship teams of US Army and Navy personnel stationed in Northern Ireland during World War II. The Hale Blue Devils, Yarvard Crimson Tide, Tech Fighting Irish, Army Wolverines and Navy Galloping Gaels played a handful of matches in Larne, Ravenhill and Newry. In 1983 with Britain's Channel 4 TV station showing the game on our screens for the first time, the Redskins and Yankees – two teams of specially trained Rugby Union players played at the All-American Festival in Banbridge, Co. Down.
American Football Association of Ireland (1987-1999)
With the founding of the Dublin Celts in the Phoenix Park in 1984 the foundations of Irish American Football proper were laid. Following quickly were Coleraine Chieftains, also 1984 but not kitted until 1986, Craigavon Cowboys, Belfast Blitzers, Ballymena Wolfhounds, Carrickfergus Cougars in 1985 and 1986. The Wolfhounds withdrew from the AFAI in 1986 and concentrated solely on Youth Football, becoming fully kitted in 1991. The other five mentioned teams played in the first season of the American Football Association of Ireland in 1986. In 1987 Belfast Spartans, Jordanstown Jaguars, Bangor Buccaneers, Dublin Tornadoes, Belfast Giants, East Side Jets (Castlereagh) joined the league as did Aldergrove Hawks, who only played preseason. The 11 teams was soon whittled down to 8 as Jordanstown and East Side folded during the season and Bangor Buccaneers folded after the season. In 1988, however, the Antrim A26 Bulldogs were born. The Lee Valley Steelers in Cork were also formed that year. Belfast Blitzers dropped out of the league after 1988 and in 1989 Belfast Giants did likewise. 1989, however, saw the birth of the Bray Seahawks and Limerick Patriots. Bray played the one season of friendlies and Limerick never joined the league proper, playing in an 8v8 Mini-League.
1990 saw the birth and death of the Dublin Pirates. In 1991 Coleraine Chieftains and Carrickfergus Cougars merged as the Newtownabbey Warriors. This was to be the pattern for the next decade – one or two teams would fold each year and one replaced them. In 1991 the Junior Kitted League started in Northern Ireland with the Wolfhounds, Brownlow Bandits (a feeder team for the Cowboys), the Belfast Junior Spartans and the Prospect Pumas. Pumas were to become the Carrickfergus Knights senior team in 1994. Before that was to happen, however, the Drogheda Vikings entered the league in 1992, lasting one season, before a splinter group formed the Ardee Falcons in 1993, playing 8v8 Football for one season. That year was the last year of the Celts, Patriots, Falcons and Steelers as the league numbers dwindled. The Cowboys also folded temporarily, replaced by the nearby Lurgan Area Raiders in 1994. In 1995 the Dublin Lightning were formed by former Celts players. 1996 was the last year of the Tornadoes and Spartans. All of the original teams had now disappeared. Portadown Panthers replaced the Raiders in 1996 and were again replaced by the returning Craigavon Cowboys in 1998. The Tornadoes were replacerd by the Dublin Tigers in 1998 who had merged with the Gateway Bulls who were formed in Dublin in 1997. Greystones Rebels also formed around this time but stayed out of the league most season, as did the Dublin Lightning due to disatisfaction with the running of the league. 1998 saw Queen's University Belfast Broncos play the first of two seasons, and a new team in Belfast, the Lasers played 7v7 Football in 1999.
Irish American Football Association (2001-2019)
By 2000, however, all but three teams had folded: Carrickfergus Cougars, Greystones Rebels and Dublin Lightning, with only one still affiliated to AFAI. Following protracted disputes, eventually leading to a court case, the AFAI was replaced by the IAFA in 2001 and the league started afresh with the Tigers and Rebels merged to become the Dublin Rebels, the Carrickfergus Knights and two entirely new teams: Dublin Dragons, formed from a Flag Football team, and the University of Limerick Vikings. The League expanded rapidly adding the Cork Admirals, Belfast Bulls and a resurrected Craigavon Cowboys by 2003 and the North Dublin Marshals and Dublin City University Saints by 2006. In 2007 the Marshals were replaced by the Tallaght Outlaws who lasted until 2008, the Edenderry Soldiers and the Belfast Trojans, a split from the Belfast Bulls. The Bulls folded after the 2008 season, and that year the introduction of the DV8 Development League saw a boom in team numbers: Both seconds teams, West Dublin Rhinos and Trinity College Dublin Thunderbolts were added that year. In 2009 the Erris (Mayo) Rams (until 2010), Midlands Soldiers (a merger of Edenderry Soldiers and new team Mullingar Archers, which lasted one season) and University College Dublin Sentinels joined the league. In 2010 the Soldiers were replaced in the midlands by Tullamore Phoenix, who played until 2013, and the IT Carlow Chargers who lost their sponsor after one game. Drogheda Lightning and Trim (Meath) Bulldogs joined in 2011 and in 2012 North Kildare Reapers, Mullingar Minotaurs and Waterford Wolves joined.
By 2013 the DV8 Development League was replaced by a full 11v11 Division 1 (IAFL 1) below the newly renamed Shamrock Bowl Conference, featuring seven of the Devlopment teams. 2014 saw the introduction of a third division, with Galway Warriors, Dundalk Mavericks, Tyrone Titans and South Kildare Soldiers joining in the IAFL 2. In 2015 Donegal Derry Vipers joined and the Mavericks and Lightning had merged as the Louth Mavericks. In 2016 a further three teams joined: North Dublin Pirates, NI Razorbacks, and Wexford Eagles. That year the Dublin Dragons also disbanded, becoming the reformed South Dublin Panthers. In 2017 the Antrim Jets joined replacing the Tyrone Titans and the two Kildare teams merged as the Cill Dara Crusaders in 2018, by which the Waterford Wolves were playing their last season, as were Galway Warriors in 2019. 2019 was the first year of the Causeway Giants and by now a new administration had taken over, with the IAFA renamed American Football Ireland.

Discussion in 'Esther's Follies' started by Chop, Feb 17, 2019.
Did you hear that Mangino spent his whole retirement savings on a private space company trip to the moon?
Someone convinced him it really was made of cheese.
I miss it when he coached at KU. He made such a large target.
Why is it that bars won't serve me if I'm drunk, but McDonald's continues serving the fat asses? I't s hardly fair!
What do you get when you cross an elephant with a poodle? A dead poodle with an 18 inch *******.
A guy gets on a bus and notices a nun sitting over in a corner. Through her heavy head piece he just spots a glimmer of her face. Gorgeous! She moves, and her vestments cannot hide the fact she has a truly phenomenal body. The guy gets more and more excited until he finally approaches the nun and tells "Sister, I don't normally do this sort of thing, but I think I love you. Can we get together some time?"
The nun leaves the bus in a huff.
Later as the guy is about to leave the bus himself, the bus driver asks the guy if he was the one who was bothering the nun. The guy again apologizes, explaining once again that he seldom did this sort of thing, but the bus driver says: "No, don't apologize, I was checking her out myself. In fact, let me do you a favour. Did you see where she got off? There's a little park there, and every day she goes there to pray at the same time. Go there tomorrow, and maybe....."
The guy thanks him and leaves.
Sure enough, the guy goes to the park and there's the little nun in a secluded spot by some trees. He goes off into the bushes, and comes back a few minutes later in a long white robe, a long blond wig with beard and a crown of thorns. The nun is flabbergasted, and asks what she can do for him. He says that every couple of thousand years, he likes to come back to earth to get laid. The nun says that she'd love to help him, but that she was on her period, and would the back door be OK?
He says fine, and they commence their activities.
A few minutes into it, he is suddenly overcome with a blast of guilt, and says, panting, "Sister, I have to tell you something. I'm not really Jesus, I'm actually the guy who was annoying you on the bus yesterday.
The nun says, "Oh, that's OK. In fact, I'm not really a nun. I'm actually the bus driver."
Pretty hungry, but not as hungry as Mangino. Mangino was a very, very hungry coach.
I wish they would have brought Mangino back. I miss that guy.
"You've got to try a double order of the fettuccine alfredo with extra sauce at Paisano's."
The BIG (and I mean BIG) guy was an excellent coach, especially when it came to offense. He worked wonders for football at KU. So what if he's from the Woody Hayes school of coach-athlete interactions--this is football, it's a tough game. So what if he's a REALLY fat guy--do you want a coach or a fashion model. KU won't do any better.
"Yeah, good idea, I'll run a reverse. And while you're at it, send a grad assistant down from the press box with another dozen donuts."
"Just one extra-large meat lovers pizza for starters. I'm on a diet."
Snyder: "You're kind of soft and squishy coach."
"I had to go to Hawaii to get this shirt."
Orange: "Please don't eat me."
"I'm telling you, the chicken wings were stacked THIS high!"
No, I don't want a fashion model for a coach, but I also want to have some assurance my head coach isn't going into cardiac arrest while walking to or from the locker room.
Best coach KU ever had. They should beg him to come back, but they won't. Just like Tech won't admit they screwed up firing The Pirate.
Yep. The conference was a better place with characters like Leach and Mangino--who were also very good coaches.
Both allegedly fired for being too mean to players (one player in Leach's case). Could you imagine how some ADs these days would deal with Woody Hayes or even DKR.

Gamechangers: A Forgotten Cello – Press Reactions
Thu 3 Apr 2014
Many of you joined us in Basingstoke on 19 March and at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall on the 25th, to hear Sigiswald Kuijken and the Orchestra perform music from Bach, Corelli and Vivaldi on the long forgotten violoncello da spalla. It's an instrument that tends to divide people and the press were no exception…

Berlioz, Basingstoke and baguettes
Wed 29 Feb 2012
I'm sitting writing this blog on a ridiculously warm Sunday February afternoon underneath the Eiffel Tower. Sounds glamorous? Well actually, I do feel quite amazed and lucky to be spending my weekend this way, though the 5.50am start this morning has left me a bit out of it, as has the eight day run of concerts we've been doing this week…still, it's a fairly fantastic thing when you're invited to go to Paris with a supersize OAE and two choruses, totalling about 250 performers altogether, in a massive production of Berlioz's Romeo and Juliet at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées. We've been touring this mammoth piece in four locations this week: first at the Royal Festival Hall on 18 February (read the reviews from the night here), then to the Anvil in Basingstoke on 23 February, a Night Shift at the Roundhouse as part of the Reverb Festival on 24 February and finally Paris today.
I've been with the OAE for four years now and this is the first time I've been had the chance to go on a tour from start to finish and what a tour to experience! No two performances have been the same- the Southbank Centre night was my first real listen to the piece in full, Basingstoke = Amazingstoke (fabulously rich sound) and I thoroughly enjoyed when Sir Mark had to wait for members of the audience to stop talking before he started Part 2- his withering look was priceless! The Roundhouse gig was totally different – live streaming, a glass of wine and chat with conductor Sir Mark Elder created a unique atmosphere – and the final leg in Paris is sounding awesome, even though I've mainly been backstage, looking after the Orchestra's belongings. Having said that, each time I hear the piece, I still get the same feeling- a huge rush from hearing a beautifully orchestrated piece, played by a fantastic band.
Here's a few pictures from my travels (note the slight difference in scenery!):
It's like Daisy (an OAE cellist I chatted to on the Eurostar journey out) said:
"It's like the difference between a supermarket apple and an organic one from the market: one is perfectly round and shiny but doesn't taste of anything, whilst the other may have a few bumps and bruises but tastes exquisite- just like the OAE." Well said.

His times: Born half-a-dozen years before Mendelssohn and Schumann, Hector Berlioz arrived on the musical scene just as Romanticism in all its passion and glory was beginning to take flight. Music was becoming ever more emotional; orchestras were expanding to embrace new colours and sonorities; composers were looking increasingly to other art-forms for inspiration.

When a loved one of a friend or family member's passes on, it's difficult to know the "right" thing to say or do to help the situation. We're often left scrambling to prepare and deliver a casserole, rearrange schedules to visit the family and/or funeral home, and purchase an item to let the friend/family member know how sorry we are for their loss.
Though any effort expressed is meaningful and often invaluable, wouldn't a gift that gives back, year after year, be an exceptional tribute? A memorial gift to the Rush County Community Foundation is permanently invested in the endowment fund of your choice, giving a distribution to the cause or organization annually. With 185 established funds, it's likely that the RCCF has a fund that will honor a cause special to you or the deceased individual. Our "unrestricted endowment funds" benefit all of Rush County through annual grant distributions (and currently, donations are matched $1 for $1!). No contribution is too small! The dollar amount given is never shared. Any size of gift that is permanently invested grows and gives, year after year! If you are interested in giving a more sizeable gift, the option exists to create a named fund.
Giving a memorial contribution, or any kind of donation, to the RCCF is easy. Local funeral homes have donation envelopes, our office takes walk-in donations, donations can be made online, or donations can be mailed to our office.
The Rush County Community Foundation is proud to support our local nonprofit agencies, education, and a variety of meaningful causes to our donors and our community. Your contribution to the Foundation leaves a lasting impact within Rush County and for our Rush County residents. We encourage you to consider a gift today: a gift that gives forever.
For more information on giving a donation that qualifies for a $1 for $1 match, to learn more about our funds, or to just learn more about RCCF's work, contact us! Visit our office at 117 N Main St., Rushville, online at www.rushcountyfoundation.org, or give us a call at (765) 938-1177.


SALT LAKE CITY, May 7, 2002 - Linux NetworX announced today that the first genomics ASP (application service provider) is powered by a Linux NetworX cluster supercomputer to provide users with online genetic research access. SEQUENOM, Inc. (Nasdaq: SQNM), a discovery genetics company, is providing the ASP, known as RealSNP.com(TM), to include its database of millions of gene sequences to offer the most comprehensive online genomics research tool available today.
With the click of a mouse, researchers from small and large organizations that otherwise would not have access to gene sequences and supercomputing technology, can access SEQUENOM's online database, RealSNP.com, to search for genetic codes and to design and test their own genetic sequences. In the past, researchers in academic and commercial organizations were often restricted in the amount of research they could conduct because of the large cost associated with sophisticated computers and licensing fees for genomic databases. With the combined efforts of SEQUENOM and Linux NetworX, the computing power and genomics data are available online, providing researchers with affordable and convenient access to necessary research tools.
"Genetic information that was previously expensive or time consuming to generate is now readily available for researchers for a variety of uses including detecting the medical impact of genes and genetic variations," said Rick Lapp, computational biologist for SEQUENOM. "With the cluster from Linux NetworX, we are able to provide our customers with quick access to genomics information and supercomputing power to further enhance research endeavors in the life sciences."
A major factor contributing to SEQUENOM's decision to use a Linux cluster was their need for a computing system that could function as a web server, database provider and number cruncher all in one machine. With the use of a Linux NetworX cluster, SEQUENOM is able to provide all the functions the RealSNP.com online database needs to produce fast and accurate genomic information. SEQUENOM was also attracted to the expertise Linux NetworX demonstrated in its products and services.
"In today's bioinformatics industry, access to accurate and validated information is vital, but not every research organization has the need for an in-house cluster system," said Clark Roundy, vice president of marketing for Linux NetworX. "An ASP model using Linux cluster technology literally brings supercomputing power to the masses."

Inside IBM's Stunning Transformation To The Cloud: 10 Key Insights
Bob Evans Contributor
(Note: After an award-winning career in the media business covering the tech industry, Bob Evans was VP of Strategic Communications at SAP in 2011, and Chief Communications Officer at Oracle from 2012 to 2016. He now runs his own firm, Evans Strategic Communications LLC.)
Over the past couple of years, IBM has pulled off a remarkable achievement by simultaneously getting smaller, smarter, faster and—most important of all—more relevant.
At the center of that transformation has been IBM's decisive and bold pivot to the cloud, enhanced by its Watson-led cognitive capabilities and its rich history of industry expertise.
Perhaps most remarkable about the big changes at Big Blue has been CEO Ginni Rometty's overhaul of the IBM culture, which for decades was dominated by huge and profitable standalone business units—mainframes and professional services, for example—that were often more interested in account control than in delivering the most complete and comprehensive business outcomes for customers.
The cloud transformation at IBM has seen those siloed fiefdoms largely give way to a more richly integrated blending of capabilities—increasingly centered on a cloud-first and data-first strategy—from across the company to exploit all of IBM's vast array of technologies, industry expertise, and relationships.
The 10 most-powerful cloud-computing companies, ranked by their ability to help businesses grow and innovate.
Yes, of course, IBM has a long road ahead of it as it continues to balance its legacy businesses with its "strategic" business segments (cloud, analytics, mobile, and security) and optimizes the deployment of its people to align more effectively with the rapidly changing global business environment its customers face.
And yes, of course, the competition in what I call the Cloud Wars will only intensify as companies continue to embrace cloud technology as the faster route to business innovation, to more-intimate engagement with customers and employees, and to higher-value returns on their IT spending.
But I'm a big believer in IBM's current position and its future direction and opportunities because Rometty is not hedging her bets about whether the good old days will come back, she's not playing around the edges with the cloud in case it just happens to catch fire, and she's been unfailingly resolute in pushing the company into the future its customers demand.
And, from IBM's Q1 earnings call, here are 10 reasons behind my assessment of IBM, which I've ranked at #5 on my Cloud Wars Top 10 list:
For the past 12 months—not as a forward-looking annualized run rate—IBM's cloud revenue was $14.5 billion, CFO Martin Schroeter said on the call. That's a huge base to build on, and one that will inspire confidence about IBM's cloud strategy among customers, prospects, employees, investors, and partners.
Q1 cloud revenue was up 35%.
IBM's gone "cloud-plus" with an approach that inseparably intertwines two other strategic capabilities with its cloud business. On the call, Schroeter said IBM has come to realize that to succeed in the enterprise market and help customers solve big-time business problems, IBM must "bring together cognitive solutions on cloud platforms to create industry-specific solutions." No one else is doing that at IBM's level, although Microsoft--#1 on the Cloud Wars Top 10 list—is getting close.
IBM's "cloud as a service" business has enjoyed big success across three prominent industries: it's used by 10 of the 10 largest global banks, 9 of the world's top 10 retailers, and 8 of the world's top 10 airlines, Schroeter said.
IBM has embraced a "data-first" approach to its cloud solutions, mapping precisely to the rapidly escalating focus that businesses across every industry are placing on data as they look to become more capable in the digital-business environment.
Innovative customer engagement with Visa: in partnership with the credit-card company, IBM is using Watson IoT to enable cars, appliances and other connected devices to become potential points of sale.
Innovative customer engagement with Samsung: IBM's Weather Channel subsidiary has been picked by Samsung as the default weather app for its mobile devices, meaning "tens of millions" of people will engage with that IBM app during 2017.
Innovative customer engagement with H&R Block: Watson and the IBM Cloud capabilities are now embedded within 10,000 H&R Block branches, which IBM says has enabled 9 million tax-filers to get new levels of expertise from Block's Watson-enhanced tax professionals.
The AI partnership with Salesforce.com: as Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff tweeted when the deal was announced in March, "Great to be with my new bff @ibm CEO @GinniRometty at @IBMInterConnect in Las Vegas! Bringing Salesforce Einstein CRM and Watson together!"
IBM's aggressive push into new technologies—not only AI and Machine Learning with Watson, but also Blockchain: IBM said it started 40 new blockchain engagements with customers in Q1, adding to its total of more than 400. Those customers include global transport giant Maersk, which will use it to remake its global supply chain; Northern Trust, which will use it for its private-equity business; and the Food & Drug Administration, which will explore how blockchain can benefit public health.
On top of these achievements, IBM's got lots more good things cooking, and I expect we'll be seeing a string of impressive announcements from it throughout the year.
I've analyzed and written about the enterprise-tech business for more than 20 years from the media side as an editor-in-chief and chief content officer, and more recentl...

The core mission of The Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2) is to achieve scientific breakthroughs by constructing AI systems with reasoning, learning and reading capabilities. AI2 is working to realize the vision of a "Digital Aristotle" - AI software that utilizes large amounts of knowledge in machine-understandable form to answer questions, explain those answers, and discuss those answers with users.
Knowledge Acquision: Extracting knowledge from relevant natural language texts, supplemented by other sources and techniques such as crowd-sourcing and judicious use of manual encoding.
Machine Reasoning: Performing inference with that knowledge to answer questions.
Question Analysis: Use of natural language processing and other techniques to interpret the actual exam questions and connect them with the knowledge.
This project is only in its preliminary stages, the first step of this endeavor is an analysis of a particular fourth grade test (the New York Regents Science Test) and its knowledge requirements, and an analysis of how well current automatic knowledge-base construction methods can meet those requirements. The system is currently existing as a partial prototype.
As shown in Figure 1, there are three main components in the system architecutre: question interpretation, reasoning, and a library of knowledge resources. Various technologies are being employed for different parts of the system, Allegro CL is being used for the question decomposition part of the question analysis phase, as well as for exploratory work for information extraction.

Design flexibility can allow a building to evolve over time as the user needs change. The flexibility of a building or elements of its design can allow it to be used efficiently despite changes in operational requirements, whereas an inflexible building might become obsolete.
Flexibility might include active flexibility, such as moveable partitions, but can also include the provision of features that are inherently flexible, such as multi-use spaces, open plan offices, large floor-to-ceiling heights and high-capacity service voids. It might also include broader characteristics such as a room's ability to expand or to use a range of different energy sources, deconstructability, and so on. This can include consideration of very fundamental design options; for example, it might be relatively straight forward to make a linear building larger or smaller by adding or removing a bay, whereas a circular building may be very difficult to change without affecting the integrity of the design.
However, there are many buildings with very expensive designed-in flexibility that is never used, as the requirement for change never emerges, building occupants are intransigent and avoid change, or occupants may simply be unaware of the possibility to of change.
Flexibility can be defined within three broad types, relating to the amount of change which occurs and the degree of permanence of that change.
This is the capacity of a building to support multiple functions without altering the architecture itself. In simple terms, the function of the building changes but the building does not. Examples include furniture that can be re-positioned, multi-function spaces and so on. These do not result in a permanent change to the space.
This allows for the interior or exterior space to be changed in response to certain stimuli without the need for new construction. Changes can be both permanent and temporary.
Moveable structures can be repositioned within the environment without being changed or altered in any major way. Examples might include moveable fabric structures, re-locatable retail units, temporary accommodation such as site huts, portaloos and so on.
Responsive structures are able to react to external stimuli such as weather conditions. The changes are often temporary, but may be resource-intensive. Examples include floating buildings that rise and fall with changes in water level, retractable roofs over sports facilities and so on.
This involves changing the function of a building through a certain amount of construction work. By planning for convertibility during the design stage, potential future needs can be assessed and the time and cost required can be reduced. The resulting changes are often permanent. This might include for example; allowing sufficient space for additional buildings, providing foundations for future expansion, over-sizing building services to allow for future expansion, or conversely, purchasing packaged building services that it might be possible to re-sell if requirements reduce.
The incorporation of any anticipated flexibility into the design of a building should take place early in the planning phase of a project. The earlier that decisions are made, the easier the implementation and the greater the potential benefit. As a project develops, it can become increasingly difficult to incorporate strategies for flexibility.
In the planning phase, initial feasibility studies, future projections and long-term plans should be used to inform the development of flexibility strategies. If the project has end-users who are known, it is vital to consult with them as a means of identifying the forms of flexibility would be most beneficial to them.
Once flexibility objectives have been determined, the design team can review potential strategies and evaluate them based on their suitability for the project, bearing in mind the site constraints, programming requirements, available budget, and so on. A cost benefit analysis can help determine whether providing flexibility is actually in the long-term interests of the client or whether it is an unnecessary expense, the benefit of which is unlikely to be utilised. No designs can take accommodate every possible future requirement, so the design team must carefully evaluate those that likely to be the most beneficial and the least disruptive.
Fast track projects may involve the overlapping of activities in order to deliver a project more quickly than it would be by traditional methods. This can include overlapping design and construction, that is, construction may begin before the design is complete.
In this case it may be necessary to provide some flexibility in the earlier stages of the design to accommodate more possible options later. For example, foundations may be constructed before the form of the above ground building has been finalised. This may require that building foundations extend beyond the shape that will actually be required, and allow for greater structural loads than will necessarily be needed when the design is complete.
It may also be necessary to order some long lead time items before they have been fully specified, and again this can result in over-sizing to allow flexibility. This might for example affect the sizing of building services, construction plant and so on.

no , it is a nice project that perfectly echoes the concept of the Beaubourg legacy….
This building looks ordinary just with a rare hat….
but we have to wait an see….
I think the illumination helps it a lot to make it far more interesting, good to see!

Genetics and Genomics of Infectious Diseases: advancing our understanding of host/pathogens and their interactions
Ninghan Yang1 &
Martin L Hibberd1
Genome Medicine volume 1, Article number: 52 (2009) Cite this article
A report on the Genetics and Genomics of Infectious Diseases conference, Singapore, 21-24 March 2009.
The Genetics and Genomics of Infectious Diseases conference http://www.nature.com/natureconferences/ggid2009/index.html gathered researchers from diverse areas of expertise to further our understanding of infectious diseases, integrating knowledge of different aspects of pathogen and host biology to form a holistic picture. It was the first time that two major genetic societies, the American Society of Human Genetics and the Human Genome Organisation, have collaborated to bring together scientists interested in different but interdependent aspects of infectious diseases. The conference was also co-hosted by the Nature Publishing Group, with support from the World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health of Singapore. The meeting attracted more than 250 participants, and around 30 talks and over 40 posters were presented, with four workshops given by biotechnology companies.
The meeting was able to integrate the diverse fields of human responses to infectious disease, microbe discovery, epidemiology, drug discovery and others by focusing on high-throughput genomic technologies. It was remarkable how this provided a common language to all the participants and allowed deep understanding of areas outside each individual's usual expertise.
Some of the more novel insights came from the direct application of these technologies by groups that might not see themselves as traditional microbiologists. For example, Rotem Sorek (Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel) described a novel method of antimicrobial discovery, following their realization that cloning gaps in microbial sequencing undertakings may be due to genes that kill the cloning microorganism, Escherichia coli. It was fascinating to hear the innovative perspective given to a common phenomenon that is not given much attention in sequencing and that could potentially be turned to high-throughput screening for antimicrobials through microfluidics. Daniel Falush (University College, Dublin, Ireland) also gave an absorbing talk about using new-generation genomic technology and analytical methods such as sloppy painting (a novel approach for understanding patterns of admixture between populations) to describe gene flow in Helicobacter pylori in detail, revealing that their migration across continents is tied to that of humans, and thus where their selective pressures come from - fascinating insights into 'the private lives of bacteria'.
There was also a glimpse of the future of how the genomics approach might be applied more systematically to infectious diseases from Ulf Nehrbass (Institute Pasteur, Seoul, Korea). His group established high-content screening, which enables live visualization together with evaluation of the infection process, within high level bio-safety containment. Such methodologies are more typically used by companies, but this approach was shown to give biological insights and mechanisms, as well as to identify antimicrobial drugs and their targets.
A unique feature of the conference was a discussion session on how advanced genomic sciences can be integrated into the framework of public health and government policies to combat infectious diseases. With the rapid development of our understanding resulting from these approaches, implementation is going to be crucial, and several contributors made insightful remarks. However, it was the scene-setting talk from Tikki Pang (World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland) that captured the imagination. He reminded all present about how much work was required, as existing drugs are becoming less effective (with few new ones on the horizon) and new infectious agents are arriving constantly - usually from those areas of the world with the least surveillance. In particular, diagnostics need to be better, cheaper and preferably in the hands of the doctors in primary health care settings. Another contributor in this session, Edison Liu (President of the Human Genome Organisation and Executive Director of the Genome Institute of Singapore), provided some possible solutions, highlighting that as microbiology, through genetic high-throughput technologies, is becoming an information science, sharing databases of information will become easier. Networks of countries and scientists could develop, and Liu pointed to the company Google, which has attempted to monitor infectious disease outbreaks using its internet-based system of information collation. Several overarching themes covered during the conference are discussed in more detail below.
Virus epidemiology and evolution
The microbiology field has been transformed by the ready availability of high-throughput sequencing, with influenza taken as a case study by many speakers. Edward C Holmes (Pennsylvania State University, University Park and the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, USA) described several aspects, including the spatial and temporal dynamics of influenza (pointing out the difference between genetic and antigenic space), molecular viral evolution from a genomics viewpoint, and possible origins of amantadine-resistant strains. A striking realization from this was that new influenza strains arrive in the USA each year from South East Asia, rather than developing within the country. Sunetra Gupta (University of Oxford, UK), proposed an explanation for the rise of influenza pandemics, in which selection by the host immune system has a crucial role in determining pandemic influenza strains in a limited antigenic space. The optimism for this description of how new strains evolve was shared by Neil Ferguson (Imperial College London, UK), as his work predicted a drastic decrease in the spreading rate of drug-resistant strains as a result of highly stratified host population structures. Malik Peiris (University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong) also highlighted the need to re-examine the role of the host response in high-pathogenicity influenza strains and cautiously explored the possibility of using immunomodulation for therapy. It is likely that further research using cutting edge technology will continue to shed light and overturn widely held dogmas in this field.
Role of indigenous microflora
Another fast-moving field is the expanding research on gut microbiota, with speakers strongly putting forth the idea of the human as a 'superorganism', with indigenous microbiota having a complex and deep relationship with human biology. One of the highlights was delivered by Jacques Ravel (University of Maryland, College Park, USA), who proposed the idea that it is resilience that determines the composition of microbial communities, rather than a core microbiome as was the widely held opinion. Ravel's idea is strengthened by microbial survey data from human vaginal bacterial communities from women across different ethnic groups.
The importance of indigenous microbiota was further reinforced by Martin J Blaser (New York University Langone Medical Center, New York, USA), whose work covered the delicate balance between H. pylori and human physiology, with a decreased prevalence possibly linked to gastroesophageal disease and hormonal imbalances related to energy homeostasis. He suggested the 'disappearing microbiota' hypothesis (not to be confused with the hygiene hypothesis), in which dramatic changes in indigenous microbiota transmission and maintenance cause equally dramatic changes in human physiology. The research presented raised as many questions as it answered, and it would be interesting to see future research strengthening or altering the various hypotheses put forth or even forming relationships in unexpected ways.
The genetics of the host response
The human genetics field has been revolutionized by the recent introduction of the genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach. The infectious disease field has been applying this to a range of diseases, with GWAS covering tuberculosis (Fredrik Vannberg, Oxford University, Oxford, UK), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; Stephen J O'Brien, National Cancer Institute, Rockville, USA), dengue (Cameron Simmons, Oxford University, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam), malaria (Yik Y Teo, Oxford University, Oxford and Cambridge University, Cambridge, UK) and leprosy (Laurent Abel, University Paris Descarte, Paris, France) presented at the meeting. Although this was certainly the cutting edge of the field, overall the presentations were perhaps more preliminary in the analysis stages, with many of the talks focusing on a discussion of methodological issues. A particularly detailed methodology came from O'Brien, who revealed a process for combining multiple analyses, both statistically and phenotypically, to obtain multiple lines of evidence for the involvement of a locus. Teo discussed the difficulties of using the standard GWAS approach in African populations, as the linkage disequilibrium structure is far more complex than in out-of-Africa populations. However, if associations are found, African populations may be very helpful in narrowing down causal variants. He also highlighted the difficulties of identifying rare causal variants, using the sickle cell mutation as an example.
This highly invigorating and thought-provoking conference succeeded through a combination of excellent, first-rate speakers who are leaders in their fields, a highly focused theme (understanding host-pathogen interactions) tackled from the wide perspectives of human and pathogen genomes, and active discussion of the impact the work might have on those most affected by infectious disease. It would be exciting to hold another similar meeting for this fast-moving area in the near future.
