Ofcom, public service news and the ?arms race?
2008-04-18 00:00:00 An interesting reference to search engine optimisation made by Ofcom seems to have gone widely unnoticed, perhaps because it was buried down at the end of the report. In its second public service broadcasting review earlier this month, the watchdog referred to a SEO “arms race”. It noted that search portals are now the main starting ...

Mark David Goss is resigning from the Kentucky Public Service Commission (P
2008-04-15 23:43:00 Harlan native Mark David Goss is resigning from a sweet appointment with the PSC, Public Service Commission. He said in his statement that he doesn't really know what he will do after his resignation. I suspect if he resides in Harlan some will be pushing him toward running for something in 2010 or 2011.
Public service broadcasting - don't text in your votes
2008-04-15 21:10:00 Funny really. The only time television has ever really cared about voting was when it offered an opportunity to drain money from audiences.When it comes to public policy, broadcasting follows the long British tradition of deferring decisions to appointed boards of scrupulously selected, upstanding gentlefolk. God forbid those board members be politicised, or lured into some broader political process.It is hardly the fault of Ofcom that when it comes to options for dishing out public money the preferred solutions of boss Ed Richards are expressed like this: "Ofcom's content board could do it, although I would not necessarily recommend that. The BBC Trust could become a broader funding agency, or you could set up something new called the Public Service Trust or Agency," he said.Political, democratic or voting based solutions are not on the table to decide on subsidy allocations aimed at producing television to encourage and support what exactly?Er, precisely the kind of civic activit...
Public service broadcasting 101 (Give us the cash or Gordon Ramsay replaces
2008-04-14 22:15:00 I haven’t put pen to paper on the Ofcom PSB review. The review is thorough but transparent, the best take on it is from Ofcomwatch - I’ve added a link to a pdf of Stigler’s seminal article. Nobel winner George Stigler famously observed [pdf] that firms often acquire policy or regulation so as to serve their interest, not the public interest.Ofcom’s Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) review looks like it could be headed directly down this path.The regulator paints a dire picture of the future of quality television broadcasting and strongly suggests a state subsidy should be offered. The likely beneficiary? Channel 4.Ofcom say Channel 4 ‘will need greater certainty in its funding model.’‘Greater certainty’ in this context = money. And the likely source? The BBC licence fee.

Bevara och renodla public service till vad det borde vara
2008-03-19 11:40:00 Jag tillhör dom som anser att Sveriges Radio och Sveriges Television har ett utrymme att fylla, men att det borde ske med en helt annan utgångspunkt än vad som är fallet idag. Den licens som Radiotjänst i Kiruna idag plockar in och administrerar borde omgående avslutas för att istället hanteras via skattsedeln. Sedan handlar det om att sr och svt ska sända program som utgår ifrån vad ingen av de kommersiella kanalerna sänder eller producerar. Det är inte tittarsiffror som ska styra vad svt erbjuder oss, och vad vi förväntar oss av alla de miljoner som de förvaltar. Deras utgångspunkt ska vara frågan som Jan Gradvall ställer i senaste numret av Café, nämligen vad vi skulle missa om svt lades ner helt och hållet? En fantastisk publikframgång som den från i lördags aktuella finalen i melodifestivalen, med över fyra miljoner tittare, är egentligen ingenting som vi ska förvänta oss från svt. Personligen kan jag se en rad olika program (ex. Kobra, Värld...

May the fleas of 1000 rabid camels infest his armpits. May onions grow in his navel. May the Easter Bunny leave only the alternate Jelly Beans. May his computer’s power supply fail because of roach infestation. May he look amazingly like the guy who was sleeping with OJ Simpson’s girlfriend last night… the one still alive… the one he’s insanely jealous of. May he discover that those are not raisins, after all, and thereby discover his guinea pig has been into his cupboard. May he fall asleep for 8 hours, in the sun. At the Equator. May he find that he’s been sleep walking naked through Times square, two seconds before meeting the front end of a speeding bus. That is all.

Little Liam is getting his training in social grace looks at the way he poses for the photogs a true star in the making or at least a better one than mommy or daddy ever were. Since Tori married this dean guy she is such a simple girl and since she had this kid she is even more simple. in the 90s which were the hay days of her show Beverley Hills 90210, we would not have caught Tori drop dead in this outfit. She was the Fashionista of the 90s way before Paris Hilton starred in that sex tape. Tori was in the media of coloring or cutting her hair or for her many fashionable outfits, but I guess things and times have really changed. (photo via wire image)

This is where I'm vulnerable, so I hope in sharing I'll think about these numbers before I actually eat anything: * 22 pieces of candy corn = 140 (calories)* One Package Reese's Peanut Butter Cups = 260* Two (does anyone ever just eat ONE?) fun size Milky Way bars = 180* Two Butterfinger fun size bars = 200 calories* One package King-sized Twix = 474 (yeeeesh)Check these out too, not AS bad (that is calorie-wise, I mean there still have zero nutritonal value), if you like them.* 1 Tootsie Pop 1 pop = 60 calories* 1 Tootsie Roll 1 small roll = 13 calories (alas, 13 measly calories!

Public Service Announcement Emphasizes Motorcycle Safety
2007-10-05 00:03:00 The AMA (American Motorcyclist Association) and Nationwide Insurance have produced a Motorcycle Awareness Video about Distracted Drivers. Distracted driving is a hazard to everyone on the road, as you will see in the latest Public Service Announcement from Nationwide Insurance and the American Motorcyclist Association. While the scenario shown is unlikely, I think you’ll agree that it does a good job of illustrating some of the dangers faced by motorcyclists. 5 Questions with Ed Moreland, AMA Vice President for Government Relations 1) "Distracted Drivers" is the focus of the latest public service announcement from The American Motorcyclist Association and Nationwide Insurance. Why that topic?

2007-09-23 19:06:00 Well, one way we can get rid of these millions of unwanted, not-needed, toxic-loan or investor-owned homes is to just burn 'em down, one by one. And trust me, that's happening all over America. But come on people! Wise up! Even if you burn the damn thing down you won't be any better off. Just walk away.Whenever you see the words "suspicious house fire", just follow the money. It's not too suspicious as to why it got torched. Something to do with a homedebtor being over his head. But as they say today, you make your bed, you sleep in it, until it's foreclosed on, or you burn it down.Kent County Deputies have arrested the homeowner for the September 1st fire at 6825 Deer Cove Drive.Cheryl Marie Christman, 38, was arrested and is being lodged in the Kent County Jail for intentionally setting fire to her home.

Why does Google AdSense show public service ads?
2007-09-15 22:04:00 Ok, so its only been a week so far and I've already had some experience with the way adsense works. Oh, and did I mention, I've discovered several AdSense NO-NOs. Oh and I also figured out when and why google displays public service ads. I figured that Google will usually display public service ads in one of the following scenarios:Your publisher ID is wrong or improper. Or perhaps you did not comply to the google TOS.You tried to modify the adsense code and accidently screw it up.Google can't find any ads to match the content in the page.You did not put the code in the template, and put it in a post instead - The thing that you should keep in mind is always have the adsense in your TEMPLATE ONLY. Don't try and put any adsense code into your posts, because it will not work. Instead you'll just get a ugly ad like the one shown below. Why? because once you post the code through most CMS systems the code will not stay in different lines (the linebrakes between the code will be rem...
