Xbox Dash Update and Qwikster Is Dead - Press Pause Daily
[LESS INFO] 6 VIEWS | ADDED 03:00:00 10/12/11
Rumor that the Xbox Dashboard update is coming soon and Qwickster is dead before it even began.
SHOW NOTES:
Story 1:
Online site GigaOm has said that the new Xbox dashboard update might be hear in late November, and would probably include full Kinect support (instead of that separate menu) and the addition of some of the other video providers everyone’s been psyched about.
Also with them possibly including Silverlight (Microsoft's version of flash) there’s talk about the Xbox possibly getting an app store that would allow outside developers to build not only games...but apps as well. I'm confused on whether or not i think this is awesome or crappy. Right now the XBLA and 360 Experience is fluid and NOT clunky. Afraid of what TOO much openness might bring. We’ll see...
http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/223796/xbox-live-dashboard-update-expected-november-25-uses-silverlight-framework/
Stor y 2:
Netflix announced that their recent spin off service Qwikster is already dead.
the idea was to separate out its DVD business into a separate service and keep their streaming service named Netflix. Confusing? Yeah...apparently confusing for other people as well, customers hated the idea. We here at Press Pause mentioned the story because they had mentioned offering up video games as part of the new Qwikster service. But now...well it will just be Netflix...maybe offering up games.
Got all that?
So now is the time for Qwikster jokes:
Looks like Qwikster was over pretty quick? Eh?
Too easy.
Hey maybe next time Netflix can launch a new service and call it Deadster. And just pronounce it dead day one.
Eh, trying too hard.
Qwickster ...more like dickster. Cause they dicked over their customers. Am I right?
Ok, I'll stop now.

Will Chuck Schumer's Defense cutting 'Equality Sword' bring Republicans to their knees? UPDATED: Triggers agreed upon?
[LESS INFO] 3 VIEWS | ADDED 20:02:00 07/31/11
I included this clown logic by Schumer earlier, but I wanted to highlight it in a separate post. Sen. Schumer is trying to make us believe that the threat of defense spending cuts will be enough to keep Republicans in line if there's a Super Cat Food Commission.
CNN Transcript: >
BORGER: But it's the second part of the deal, I think, that could give Democrats some heartburn here. And that is the question of this enforcement mechanism for cuts in the second part of this, and Senator McConnell was essentially saying that this could affect across-the-board cuts in things like entitlement programs and no revenue. So how do you negotiate that?
SCHUMER: Well, certainly the enforcement mechanism is one of the key issues that is still being debated, and it's one of the issues that has made this process go on for so long.
And here is what you had to say about it. An enforcement mechanism gets -- doesn't require, but importunes, makes it very likely that the people in this bipartisan, bicameral committee come to an agreement, because if they don't, the pain inflicted is so great that they have an incentive to come to an agreement. Now that means there should be a sword of equal sharpness and strength hanging over each party's head, obviously the sword over the head of Democrats are the cuts. We don't like them. We want to help middle class people pay for their kids to get to college help with prescription drugs, things like that.
What is the sword over the Republican? Well, it has to be equal -- the one thing we are certain of, it has to be of equal sharpness and strength. The preference would be some kind of revenues on wealthy people, on tax loopholes that would be in that. But another alternative possible, being discussed, no agreements have been reached, would defense cuts of equal sharpness and magnitude to domestic cuts. And in the past, when the trigger has had significant defense cuts, it has brought the parties to the table, and they've come up with a balanced agreement that had both revenues and cuts.
BORGER: So, what you would like, essentially, is if this committee gets deadlocked, which is a possibility to say, here are all the things everyone hates sitting out there, and they will all be triggered and they will occur?
SCHUMER: Yes. That's right. And that, hopefully, brings the parties to an agreement that each side...
BORGER: What if it doesn't?
SCHUMER: Well, if it doesn't the -- we hope it does, because if the sword is tough enough and sharp enough the likelihood of agreement increases. And in the past that has worked.
He's trying to sell us on an imaginary sword that is so powerful just the threat of it will bring Republicans to their knees. I loved Game of Thrones, but we're not in Westeros , Chuck. We're supposed to trust this sword to protect our seniors and our working class families from draconian cuts to our safety net programs in a Super Congress setting? The Tea Party Caucus will hold up anything that has revenue increases so is he saying that defense cuts will make them suddenly not try to gut Medicare?
UPDATE: Jake Tapper reports that the trigger deal is all but done: >
Sources from both parties tell ABC News that the major potential roadblock in deficit negotiations-- the triggers -- are now essentially agreed upon. The plan is for the House to vote on this tomorrow, assuming all goes according to plan.
The agreement looks like this: if the super-committee tasked with entitlement and tax reform fails to come up with $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction that passes Congress, the

Chinese Regime Continues Repression 22 Years after Tiananmen Massacre
For more news visit ? english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ? http Add us on Facebook ? facebook.com Tomorrow is the 22nd anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre. As people prepare remembrance events in many places around the world, in Mainland China, the subject is still off limits. Rights groups say the Chinese regime has changed little since the massacre, as it continues to harshly suppress dissent. It's been 22 years since the Chinese regime brutally crushed the Tiananmen democracy movement. The Chinese Communist Party has never taken responsibility for what happened when it sent military forces to end the student protests on June 4th, 1989. More than two decades later, the regime continues to silence dissent. Many believe the CCP's latest crackdown that started in February this year, is the worst since the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Hundreds, possibly thousands of protestors died in the Massacre%mdashknown in Chinese, as the June 4th Incident. Most were students demanding democracy and greater political freedom. According to Tiananmen student leader Tang Baiqiao, that's what Chinese people are still wishing for. [Tang Baiqiao, Former Tiananmen Student Leader]: "Now the Chinese public has the right and responsibility to resist tyranny. They can no longer allow the CCP to trample them at will. Chinese people, regardless of ethnicity, age or belief have the desire to end the dictatorship, so that the country can return to a form of civilization." Many observers ...

South Korea and US Probe Agent Orange Dumping
For more news visit ? english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ? http Add us on Facebook ? facebook.com South Korea and the United States have agreed to investigate a report that the US military dumped Agent Orange at a base 200 miles southeast of Seoul. The investigation is set to begin next week. South Korea has agreed to start a joint investigation with the United States into possible dumping of the chemical Agent Orange at Camp Carroll army base near Seoul. [Yunsik Hong, Deputy Minister for National Agenda, PM Office]: "Tomorrow, we will start collecting ground water samples around the Camp Carroll base for the first time, and our investigation within Camp Carroll will begin next week." A US military official says ground-penetrating radar devices will be used in next week's investigation. South Korean activists have called for a transparent investigation over claims made that the chemical defoliant Agent Orange was buried at a US army base Camp Carroll in 1970s. Earlier this week the US military said it discovered a study indicating the military buried chemicals and herbicides at the military base, 200 miles southeast of Seoul. But the study did not specifically identify Agent Orange. The controversy erupted last week, when South Korean media reported that US veterans had told US television station KPHO-TV that they were ordered to dump the chemicals at Camp Carroll in the late 1970s. After the US veterans started talking about the buried toxic chemicals, a South ... From: NTDTV Views: 135 4 ratings Time: 01:51 More in News & Politics

5 Nerdtastic Summer Movies
[LESS INFO] 8 VIEWS | ADDED 06:12:19 04/29/09
What's up peoples?
It's Wednesday, and it's day one of this weeks WTF.
For today Brooks and Carlos bring their top five upcoming Nerdtastic summer movies.
#5: X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Leading up to the events of "X-Men," "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe.
#4: Star Trek
The greatest adventure of all time begins with "Star Trek," the incredible story of a young crew's maiden voyage onboard the most advanced starship ever created: the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of vengeance threatens all of mankind.
#3: Terminator: Salvation
In the highly anticipated new installment of "The Terminator" film franchise, set in post-apocalyptic 2018, Christian Bale stars as John Connor, the man fated to lead the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators. But the future Connor was raised to believe in is altered in part by the appearance of Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington), a stranger whose last memory is of being on death row. Connor must decide whether Marcus has been sent from the future, or rescued from the past. As Skynet prepares its final onslaught, Connor and Marcus both embark on an odyssey that takes them into the heart of Skynet's operations, where they uncover the terrible secret behind the possible annihilation of mankind.
#2: Moon
Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is nearing the end of his contract with Lunar. He's been a faithful employee for 3 long years. His home has been Selene, a moon base where he has spent his days alone, mining Helium 3. The precious gas holds the key to reversing the Earth's energy crisis.
Isolated, determined and steadfast, Sam has followed the rulebook obediently and his time on the moon has been enlightening, but uneventful. The solitude has given him time to reflect on the mistakes of his past and work on his raging temper. He does his job mechanically, and spends most of his available time dreaming of his imminent return to Earth, to his wife, young daughter and an early retirement.
But 2 weeks shy of his departure from Selene, Sam starts seeing things, hearing things and feeling strange. And when a routine extraction goes horribly wrong, he discovers that Lunar have their own plans for replacing him and the new recruit is eerily familiar.
Before he can return to Earth, Sam has to confront himself and the discovery that the life he has created, may not be his own. It's more than his contract that is set to expire.
#1: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince
Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort's defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn't counted on Romilda Vane's chocolates! And then there's Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.
There are a few other great films coming up in the next few months, so it is a good summer for the geek in us all.
That"ll do it for this Wednesday edition of WTF. Make sure to tune into tomorrow to see what the boys have in store for here at MEVIO Tech .

POD834 - Strategically engaging your organization III - Stretching your potential
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 14:29:19 12/05/08
This Tomorrow’s Challenge is the third and last in a series on strategically engaging your organization. The first part, "Assessing your reality", highlighted the importance of starting a strategy process by building an aligned perspective of your company’s current reality. Without a shared perspective, leadership teams often have vastly different views and focus on solving different issues. Facing reality starts by looking at your organization from the outside-in, challenging fixed perspectives and strong internal held biases. The second part, "Challenging your ambition", looked at challenging the team’s assumptions of the company’s possibilities and the direction it is heading, in order to build a shared ambition for where the company should go. Without exploring the range of possible directions that a team can choose to lead an organization, leaders often act as if they are on a fixed path, managing (not leading) the organization based on historical patterns, not future opportunities.
