Talking with newspaper

Hey everyone I just found a cool cheat to talk while holding the newspaper (other people can see it too)!

Go to a part of a room that you can see yourself holding the paper.Then click the "WE NEED YOU!" part at the top and then click question.Don't type anything, just hit send.Then in the top left corner you should see main, click it.Finally hit Tab and you can now talk! (you only need to do this if you close the newspaper.)

Oh here's another secret.If you hate someone on club penguin, tell them to hit Alt F4 and they will disappear!

Should There Be Mercy in Any Game?
All the Texans I am sure read about the story of a Christian High School shutting out another HS girls basketball team 100-0 but for those of you who didn't know here is the story link http://highschool.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=904726

The coach who coached the girls to win was fired and the school and basically the School board Pres issued an apology for the way the game was won. They stated it wasn't "Christ Like".

The coach refuses to apologize.

On one hand I agree with the coach. The coach did his job. He coached his girls to play a clean game and do their best. They did their best!

On the other hand I agree with the school a bit. The coach had a shut out game at half time with 50 some points to 0 points. He could have played his bench warmers.

Now as a use to be Varsity HS Basketballer and one who was asked to play in college because the coach saw me playing on the intermuaral teams I also have some other observations.

First there is no mercy rule in basketball. In football there is and in baseball and softball there is. So players are going to do their dayumdest to rack up their stats as much as possible. Meaning points, rebounds, assists, and such. These girls and coach did no wrong. Every team across the US do this with a team they know they can rack up their stats with. Especially if the players, coaches, and parents are the ones doing the college recruiting to get scholorships!

Second if this was a boys team nothing would have been said about this shut out! Don't tell me different. I have seen similar stories out of Texas and other states. And coaches weren't fired. Statements were made saying that maybe we should have played the bench warmers but stats had a chance to get racked up and it was part of the game.

Third people are now making excuses for the other team. They came from a school they are known to have students with learning disabilities. Since when do schools yell at other schools for having learning disabled students? And if these "girls" were that disabled in their learning and corridination abilites why was a game scheduled for regular league play?

As a parent whose children will be playing ball next year; I am anti award giving for the loosing teams. It teaches our children NOTHING but they are up on a pedistal for EVERYTHING they do. Regardless if they deserve an award or not. The majority of the parents in my area are the same way. Schools have had parents go to school board meetings over this issue. Parents have yanked their kids from specific teams due to this issue of wanting to award players for doign nothing but showing up!

I am still up in the air about this game simply because I can see both sides. I do not feel the coach should have been fired though for doing his job. Maybe there should be a mercy rule in basketball. What do you think?

What are your thoughts on this?
 
 
 

   
Newspaper Electronic Editions

Worldwide, a day more than 500 million newspapers printed, and on the same day thrown in the trash. These are vast quantities of paper waste that can deal with electronic newspapers could save.

 

The idea of an electronic newspaper is not new. Already some years ago came an idea of an electronic newspaper on the Gegestucks, but it was postponed on several occasions. It provides the electronic newspaper many advantages:

     * The cost of production of the normal daily fall away.
     * The old disposing of waste paper also deleted.
     * The newspaper would always up to date, since that would constantly update.

 

Reasons for the postponement of the project were mainly technical problems with the implementation. But now several such as companies Pressmart.net have the breakthrough and could possibly already this year, e-papers and eMagazines on the market.

 

With low power consumption, the micro-capsules reversed, so that an image or a text. The system called Smart Paper is not just black / white, but has the advantage that it is extremely energy-saving, since it only consumes power when a new image is created. If only it is finished loading times, it requires no more power.

 

Also, the market system similar to the e-Paper Company. Here are moving black and white micro-particles in many liquid-filled microcapsules to a black or white pixel display. The dissolution of the e-paper is at 160 dpi is much worse than the 300 dpi of SynchroSign message board, but still insufficient.

 

However, both systems have a disadvantage compared to the normal paper. You can e-fold even neither paper roll. Remedy to create plastics executives here. This works on a permanent basis but not faultless. Even the color reproduction of images or even video is anything but marketable. But it is only a matter of time until these teething problems are resolved. We should be excited...

 

 
 
   
 

Digital Libraries
Internet technology has brought about a revolution in the mindset of people from all categories of life and which is the essential part of routine human life. Technology is every where around us, permitting us to interact at a global scale. Technology is supposed to be helping us relieve the burden of repetitive and unnecessary actions by doing the manual work for us. Nowadays people are commonly approaching web to find their Newspapers, magazines, journals, and all other print publications and online newspapers, online magazines are in boom now. As a part, libraries are also digitizing to make convenient to the readers as it is easy to access and it takes less time to find the proper material.

Digital libraries are invented in the mid of 90’s. Digital library is a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible by computers. The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer network

In the olden days, libraries might be like a place of silence where there are loads of shelves and even more books. There’s a certain smell in the air that makes you aware of all the books around, on a different perception channel. There’s the rest to sit down, read a book and to perceive that smell at all. There is whisper and librarians flit through the passages. It’s a place of serenity. You may meet educated people here. But now, all are going on digital and this technology made easy to access the books and other print material.

Historic content is the valuable source of information and which can be used in many aspects and also we have a responsibility to provide such information to our forth coming generations. In this point of view, digitization of libraries will be most important and which can only save it from loss of data. There are some companies like Pressmart offering full-service archive digitization to publications taking archives stored in physical formats of newsprint, microfilm or microfiche into multiple digital formats like scanned images, searchable PDF files, XML files, browser-based digital replicas, etc. Using sophisticated processes and patent-pending technology, Pressmart scans, enhances the image quality, disintegrates the publication pages into articles, ads and pictures and extracts key meta-data giving advanced search capabilities to the end users. A proprietary OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology converts the printed text into digital format and indexed to produce quick search results based on every keyword available in the archives. An enhanced high resolution page image is stored for future reproduction.

So, let’s put hands together for the digital revaluation to save the valuable historical data
 
 
 

   
Electronic Paper Technology
Because of the change to the electronic representation of information is replaced by the traditional paper newspaper competitors, such as the Internet offers. As part of this work will be the electronic newspaper on electronic paper, which is a slide film on a paper-based substitute that view. Their innovative nature lies in the convergence of the usual newspaper manageable paper and the digital media world.

Following the explanation of the technological foundations are strategic issues for the newspaper industry analyzed. Newspapers here are different concepts are recognized. The processes in a newspaper publisher based on the value chain are clear, with the changes of existing processes in the foreground. Fundamental modification learns the value chain in the fields of printing and distribution. The need for industry cooperation across borders is in the development of a technical and business distribution model for the Electronic Newspaper and Electronic Magazines clear. Newspapers are so different variants investigated in order to match the information obtained and the living environments of the respective recipient’s possible distribution models to identify.

For the subscription segment is a subsidy model, whereby both the sole production of an electronic newspaper as well as the parallel production alongside the traditional paper newspaper to be considered. In a scenario analysis can be used for publishing data representative of one significant potential to subsidize an electronic newspaper were identified. For the retail segment is a model of cooperation for a virtual kiosk developed.

The work is directed not only to scientifically oriented readers, but also to decision makers in media companies because a strong emphasis on action and recommendations on the inclusion of evidence from international expert’s interviews is laid.
