The document discusses the growing popularity and viability of mobile VoIP (mVoIP). It notes that mVoIP makes economic sense as it is much cheaper than traditional cellular voice plans. It also highlights improvements in user experience for mVoIP applications, such as integration with contacts, availability status, and sharing photos during calls. The document concludes that the open market will determine which mVoIP applications succeed as companies invest tens of millions rather than hundreds of millions in development.
The document discusses metaphors for organizing and navigating aggregated information from multiple communication channels on mobile devices. It proposes a prototype model with 15 information classes organized by 15 metaphors, such as "what I've done" being information that is "falling" or "fading" into history and "what I have to do" being information that is "suspended" in time. The model also includes an information window and navigation gestures to move between different classes of ephemeral, perceivable, alive, or real-time information from around the user, in their near future, or what they have done in the past.
1) Mobile phones and social networking are changing how people communicate and share information about themselves, with more personal details becoming publicly available through mobile than ever before.
2) Three changes to the mobile ecosystem - open mobile browsers, open operating systems, and generous data plans - are enabling a new wave of innovation as entrepreneurs experiment with new ways of using social networking behaviors in mobile conversations.
3) Many of the greatest changes in communication will come from integrating social networking features like threaded conversations across call, text, and messaging platforms on mobile.

Thomas joined Cambridge daycare at 18 months old and was initially scared to be away from his parents, but the teachers showed him love and care which helped him feel more comfortable. At Cambridge, he learned his ABCs, numbers, colors, shapes, and many other things. He enjoyed activities like making pumpkin soup, where he got to slice, smash, boil, and eat the pumpkin. Attending Cambridge helped Thomas become more independent and believe in his own abilities. He thanked all the teachers and staff for loving and caring for him, and looked forward to returning again.
Last week, we were asked to inaugurate TED's very first "partners" session on behalf of Orange. This was the an absolutely awesome experience, as frankly, getting to present the thinking behind On at TED was a dream come true.
TED Global took place in Oxford, with some 800 attendees. After the gloom years, the focus was on the good news. The presentations on spreading education , in true TED style, were astounding, as were talks on decoding the brain, and applying video gaming (Tom Chatfield) behaviours to general motivation. Ralph Simons gave us an entertaining insight into My Sharona, while Annie Lennox got us all sweet dreaming again before reminding us of the topicality of the fight against AIDS. Naif Al-Mutuwa tought us the power of comics in fighting against stereo-typing Islam. Matt Ridley gave a compelling explanation of why progress accelerates. And I managed to miss (slight hangover) a brilliant appearance by Julian Assange on WikiLeaks.

Reg 28: Update from National Treasury Presenation Amramplin
The document outlines proposed amendments to Regulation 28 governing pension fund investments in South Africa, including updating definitions, applying Regulation 28 limits to individual member investment choices, and aligning asset categories and limits with other financial services regulations while also accommodating Islamic-compliant investments and modern investment products like derivatives. Public comments are invited on the proposed changes, particularly regarding the proposed definitions, investment categories and limits, and potential exposure of pension funds to hedge funds and unlisted securities.
We had 5 golf sessions in Term 2, with thank you to instructor Pam. While the sessions in the hall were enjoyed, the muddy field was less popular as shoes and socks took all day to dry. Pictures showed the progress made in playing golf skills, and an overall message that golf is a loved activity.
Richard Frieman from CMS social media presentation at n4a conferencemkaschak
CMS is currently using several social media platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Flickr to connect with communities and share information. The document discusses the benefits of social media for government agencies and dispels common misconceptions. It also provides statistics on how social media was influential in the 2008 US election and outlines CMS's presence on different sites.
During Term 2, Room 15 students learned about building design and construction as they watched new classrooms being built. They then built model houses out of materials like sticks, tape, and ice blocks. The document describes each student's house, noting whether it was strong or weak and its special features. Many houses had security cameras, roofs, floors, frames, cladding, doors and bracing. By the end of Term 2, the real classrooms were taking shape.
The document discusses collateral management in the context of recent regulatory changes affecting the derivatives market. It covers topics such as the G20 requirements for derivatives trading, the impact of regulations like Basel III, and the increasing demand for collateral. Challenges related to collateral include the costs associated with managing it and the need to optimize usage of different types of collateral.
