This post talks about 3rd IAMAI Digital Marketing Conference held at Bangalore. I'll post about the broad implications later in the subsequent post of course but for now enjoy the ride through a list of tweets (Courtesy WatBlog). In between, you will find certain discussions marked green. These are the pointers which I feel makes this blog post's title apt: Key Insights on the Intersection of Man,
It was just before the rain started. It came quite surprisingly, with rich drops falling from the sky. Santa Barbara doesn't get much rain before December. It seems that Albert Hammond wasn't right when he sang "It never rains in Southern California" back in 1974. But it's AS IF it never rained.
"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door." Learning, seeking, taking calculated risks, these are all about creating opportunity and getting yourself prepared. I am sure you have probably heard they saying, "I would rather be lucky than good." I wholeheartedly disagree. The difference between a lucky person and an unlucky one almost always comes down to preparation and attitude.I frequently hear

The Phloenchit-Wireless intersection is set to become a new landmark for Bangkok, as three property developers, including the Central Group, Tan Passakornnatee and Charoen Siriwattanapakdi, get set to develop projects worth about Bt20billion at the location.
The Central Group helped the Phloenchit-Wireless Road area gain popularity in March 2006 when it won [...]

The sun came out today and lifted the steamy cloud that followed me throughout the holiday weekend. Herein are several short items gathered over the past several days, so this post should go down smooth. No required reading, although it occurred to me that I should start posting information about the books mentioned on this site. Accordingly, look for the Good Reads widget on the sidebar on this p
D.C.'s Avenue to is one of the most simply refreshing groups I've heard in a long while. Oddisee, Unknown and Kolai have created a seriously too perfect blend of hip hop, jazz, and soul with a not too heavy presence of electronics, but just enough. They've got all the vocalists and talents of a jazz band, the producing and sampling skills of any big hip hop DJ (better if you ask me), and a passion
"Animal liberation" and "gay liberation" are two phrases that are rarely heard in the same sentence. But, in fact, the liberation of gay and lesbian people, and indeed the liberation of all people, depends upon the liberation of animals. We must come to understand this, just as we must understand how different forms of bias against people, such as racism and sexism, are interconnected."(Gay-Straig
George's Employment Blog reminds us that an employer cannot ban its employees from discussing wage and benefits without violating the National Labor Relations Act. According the NLRB's recent decision in Windstream Corp.:

This quiet Ann Arbor intersection will likely see some changes in the near future.The recently completed Skyline High School is just one mile north of the currently vacant Miller/Maple intersection. However the fall beginning of school promises to change that status. There are already plans for an office/residential complex on the northwest corner and a new retail space is already almost ready on the southwest corner. Marathon Oil is taking bids for the vacant gas station. There is no decision yet on whether or not that parcel should remain a gas station and any bidders must submit their business intentions. There are also plans out there to create a large medical office building with some residential spaces above. The prospective Medical tenants are alr
In Iraq you don't direct traffic, traffic directs you.Watch videoIn Iraq you don't direct traffic, traffic directs you. This video was filmed in an intersection on an average traffic day in Iraq. Over there you don't need traffic lights, signs or rules. All you need is a police man to direct traffic who stands in the street corner doing nothing.
I just learned that it is estimated that divorce among parents of children with severe disabilities is above 85%. This makes me very sad.I suppose that it is not surprising that the divorce rate is so high. The general rate of divorce for marriages in the United States is about 50%. If you add to that the extreme stress and expense of having a child with a severe disability, it stands to reason that the rate of divorce would be much higher. Here are a couple of articles that were given to me by a special education professor whom I just met at the conference of the Council for Exceptional Children in Boston last week. Please let me know if you have additional information on this topic:://autism.about.com/od/copingwithautism/f/divorce.htm In addition to the obvious societal concerns, the

Car Accident News: Intersection: Rainier Avenue at Rainier and 42nd Ave S As Reported By: The Stranger, July 6, 2007 Abstract: The only other Seattle road that compares statistically for collisions, according to Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) Spokesman, Gregg Hirakawa, is Aurora, a likely location for a future safety project. ... Chris Davis? Legal Comments: What a fabulous idea! Rainier Avenue has become a dangerous roadway in recent years. The billboards are a great idea and will remind drivers how devastating a car accident can be. I?ve seen photographs of accidents occurring at speeds as low as 25-35 mph where the damage is fairly substantial. In one case I handled, the speed was only 25 mph, but the impact caused my client?s car to roll over onto its hood. She later devel

Sometimes you just don't have the patience to get home through all the congested traffic, to be able to shake hands with Abraham Lincoln and forward e-mail porn to just about everyone you know. That was the case yesterday with former Oklahoma State basketball star Byron Houston.Former Oklahoma State basketball player Byron Houston was arrested for indecent exposure Wednesday after a woman called police and said she saw a man masturbating near Northwest Expressway and Independence Road in Oklahoma City, police said Thursday.Police stopped a car at 5:45 p.m. that matched the woman's description and found Houston in the driver's seat with his shoes off and underwear on the floorboard, Master Sgt. Gary Knight said. The woman later identified Houston, 37, as the man she saw and said she's seen him doing the same thing on three previous occasions, Knight said.At least he had the decency of taking off his shoes first. The most amazing part of the story for me is that the same woman has ca
Only four percent of paralegals are responsible for managing the "intersection of law and technology, according to Fios, Inc.'s latest webcast poll.

Contractors for the Virginia Department of Transportation will completely close the intersection of Churchville Avenue and N. Augusta Street in Staunton for underground utility relocation work beginning Thursday, March 29. The intersection and adjoining areas will be closed to all traffic around the clock for at least three-weeks. All traffic will be detoured around the construction area. The utility relocation work, which has been ongoing along other sections of Churchville Avenue for some time, is part of preparations for the widening of Churchville Avenue. The location of the construction necessitates a fairly extended detour over to Coalter Street. The detour will be clearly marked. If you are going South on North Augusta Street past the Staunton Post Office… Turn left on Edgewood Road, then right on Coalter Street and proceed South. Turn right at the traffic light on Frederick Street after passing Mary Baldwin College. ► To reach points Sou
Pistonheads lamenting the rise of the machine will not be heartened to hear there's a new acronym in town: ICAV. "Intersection Crash Avoidance, Violation" systems sound an alarm if a driver is about to run a stop sign, red light or other mission critical intersection warning. According to a pdf downloadable at Accidentreconstruction.com, researchers are set to field test practical ICAV systems. While enthusiasts may regret yet another attempt to "dumb down" safe driving, there's no denying the magnitude of the problem. In 1999, some 261k light vehicle crashes occurred at intersections where a driver was later charged with running a stop sign. That same year, 133k crashes involved traffic signal violations.
