It has been a few years since the Lucknow Sentinel has had a website redesign but that day came last week as we launched a new site that in my mind is leaps and bounds above the previous site.

Im one of those reporters who still enjoy writing for a print newspaper, but embracing the digital world is essential for the survival of the small community newspaper. I want to get as many people reading the paper as possible and this includes providing good local news online.

Our new website is more colorful and accessible to our reader and I hope it allows them to experience what the Lucknow Sentinel is all about. As the editor at the Sentinel I want people to know I provide local community news where a larger paper wouldnt be able to do the same.

I always hear from our subscribers who live outside of Lucknow that they wouldnt know whats going on in the village unless they were reading the Sentinel.

I think the user experience on you new site will offer people a lot more since they can take part in polls, post upcoming events and even upload user generated articles and pictures.

The website is trying to deliver that full user experience while at the same time making it a great source of local news and sports.

There will always be that divide of people who prefer print content over online content, because there are still people who dont own computers, but I think both mediums should be able to coexist in harmony.

I think in the future digital content will take over print, but print wont go away. There will always be a place for print because there are still many people who like the hardcopy of a paper in their hands.

Just as long as the news gets to people Ill be happy. The material may change for how people take in news, but just as long as people in the Lucknow area are able to still get local news it can only be a good thing.

Im going to make a poll on the website asking people what their number one choice is for taking in news on a daily or weekly basis. It will range from digital to print, but it will involve newspaper, radio, TV and Internet. Im interested to see how people take in news. I myself probably use a combination of each, but the newspaper is still the number one way I take in news.

Inside Forbes: In Journalism, What's New Is Actually Old... and 'That's the Way It Is'

Mon, May 28 2012 by Bitchie Staff | Filed Under: Celebrities

Mary J. Blige has released a new music video for her latest single Dont Mind off her album My Life II: The Journey Continues, Act 1. The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul decided to ditch the background dancers and fancy storylines for the majority of the video, instead opting to sing and groove from a chair.

If the song sounds a little familiar, Mary used the same track for her infamous Burger King commercial where she changed up the lyrics and sang about crispy chicken wraps. The commercial may have been snatched down as quickly as it made its way through the internet, but it seems like Marys moving past it and has given us a love jam about being down for your boo, even if you fuss and fight.

Check out Dont Mind below:

New Video: Mary J. Blige – I Don’t Mind

Remember when displaying bad manners meant just putting your elbows on the dining table? Today, with all of our mobile devices, we can be rude anywhere at any time.

My bet is, youll agree that some of these mobile missteps make you want to slap the perpetrators upside the head. Let's count some of the ways.

Heres the epitome of arrogance: people who talk on the phone or tap out text messages while they check out at the grocery store or pay at a drive-through. They make the cashier wait, and hold up the line.

A question for these folks: Are you really so self-absorbed that you don't feel the cold stares from everyone around you?

If youre close to checkout, hold off taking or making that call, or initiating a chat. It can wait 2 minutes.

Its difficult to explain whats so annoying about watching someone simultaneously walk and text-message or email. Teenagers are notorious for doing this--heck, the other day I even spotted a young man riding a bike while texting. And you've probably seen this unfortunate episode:

When youre heads-down to such a degree that you cant even get from the car into a store without tapping away, something is wrong with your idea of being plugged in to the digital world. Get real--as in, lift your head, put down your phone, and notice how the weather is, or what the people around you are doing. The physical world can be interesting, if you can stash your device away long enough to notice it.

One of my friends is into psychology, speaks four languages, and is a user experience designer for a logistics software company. In short, hes a brilliant guy who knows a thing or two about how the brain works. For him, its a major offense when people around him are playing games on mobile devices with full speaker sound. Its even worse when its a game that I play privately, because it triggers a reflexive cognitive response that I am unable to filter out, unlike most sounds, he says.

I dont know much about cognitive reflexes, but I definitely consider it audio pollution when my teenage son cranks up the volume to watch YouTube skateboarding videos on the family iPad--the music and the sound of boards crashing onto sidewalks irritates me.

Be cognizant that others around you probably dont appreciate the sounds emanating from your phone or tablet.

27-05-2012 14:04 Finally, I made it~ ;U; I've been trying to get this video right since two days ago, and I've found out I really don't fit to be on camera :C I tried more than 60 times. And it seemed I did something wrong. Every. Single. Time. I would either play wrong on the guitar, forget the lyrics or look like I didn't care at all. And if I kept away from all that. There was something wrong with the video itself. But. Even tho' I had to try 60+ times to get it right - in the end, I did it QvQ I just needed to get that out there :'3 But this is the re-upload of my first and until now only video. Because there was so much noise in the background in that one. So I hope you like it'n stuff~ o3o And just in case it's hard hearing what I sing, even with the better sound: I know that we're going through some serious shit, you and I And I really wish I could be with you 'till my cup was full and then You could be the dragon for a while And watch over me 'till I was strong again I don't mind the times you kept me awake all night In fact I've never minded anything you do I hope I'll never lose you, 'cause I think that that Would leave a way too big hole in my life You know you don't have to thank me, 'cause I really don't mind at all I mean, with you I can be myself again Also, I don't mind you being The dragon from time to time After all, like you, I'm not invincible In our friendship there is more than just that I love you in a way only a true friend can love their friend I'll do whatever I ...

You can check this one out it's taken by the onboard GoPro camera; Here is the link of the original footage of RCHELIBUG; This is my first go with the mx400 but i love it already, probably would have been best to not use the gopro for the maiden flight but i couldn't resist, its ok with the gopro but it descends much better without it.

26-05-2012 03:36 Dr. Anders Sandberg is a well known transhumanist, futurist, computational neuroscientist and currently a research fellow at the Future of Humanity Institute in Oxford University. I have been thinking of inviting him on Singularity 1 on 1 for some time and when one of my readers actually asked me to do it I could not be happier to oblige. (Thanks Shahan!) Dr. Sandberg is one of those rare individuals who clearly loves his work and is always very enthusiastic to discuss it. I really enjoyed talking to him and feel that we could have talked a lot more than we did. Thus I will try to bring him back on the show for little more focused discussion on one of his areas of expertise - transhumanism, mind uploading and the ethics thereof. During our first discussion with Anders we cover a wide variety of topics such as: his childhood and early passion for science fiction; his intellectual journey from science fiction to science and -- eventually - to ethics; the goals and benchmarks of his work; human enhancement, body modification and the risks of early adopters; the problem of finding the right priorities; the technological singularity and our chances of surviving it; other existential threats to humanity. My second favorite quote that I will take away from Anders Sandberg is: The Singularity should not stop us from thinking! (The first one, of course, is the title.)

My mind's made up. - Video

Eric, youre in England at the moment where youve been appointed composer in residence at Cambridge University at Sidney Sussex College. What are your duties as composer in residence?

Well, its the best job in the world, frankly. Really its completely up to me. I can determine how many lectures Id like to give, how many different services Id like to conduct with the choir or sing with. Mostly theres a room set up for me with a piano and I can just go and write there whenever I need to. Its a beautiful job.

Cambridge is at the heart of the English choral tradition, especially the college choirs like Kings and Trinity. Theyre inheritors of a tradition of Cathedral choir singing that goes back hundreds of years. Has that legacy, that tradition, had an impact on your music since youve been there?

Yeah, and even long before I got there. Since I first fell in love with choral music at 18 and began composing at 21 Ive been listening to recordings of British choirs and just fell in love with that sound, that pure clear pristine sound and I think its been the biggest influence frankly on my sound over the years. But its only since Ive gone to Cambridge and had a chance to sing in liturgical services as a member of the choir that its influenced the texts that Ive chosen. For the very first time Ive started writing music that could be used in a liturgy.

Youve said in the past that youve resisted setting liturgical texts but you write that youve discovered the deep wisdom of the liturgy. Was there some moment that changed your mind about setting liturgical texts?

Its a combination of things. First it was just being there in that sacred space, being in these chapels throughout Cambridge and hearing the music and listening to the words of the liturgy in a way I never had before. I was raised an agnostic. Not an atheist but certainly not a Christian and I guess Ive been a sceptic my entire life. I still am, but the other part of it is Im 42 now and so I think Im maybe letting go of some of that young idealism and listening to the poetry of the liturgy in a new way, hearing the humanism in it and its just been deeply moving to me and has caused this music to come flooding out of me.

26-05-2012 11:28 ?WATCH in HD if possible 🙂 ? i love you, i always have... ? I can't with them. I can't with this song. I can't with everything. Basically "I can't" has become my motto the last couple of days. And not only 'cause of what 'we got' from them... I just feel so fucking proud of them, and so happy for them that i can't even... They are two amazing people and deserve all the praise and the happiness possible! And yes, of course also 'cause they got me moved so much these days, and it's because of what they are and what they mean to a lot of people. They just make me believe in love, like no one else can. Sometimes i kinda blame them for making me idealize love so much, but yet, i would love to have something like what they have. And it's not even something so 'special' in a certain way. It's love, true love... and they just do what all people in love do, but the way they stay so true in such a place like Hollywood, with every shit going around, well that's not 'nothing special'. That's a lot... ? Thinking about this, i even happened to cry a couple of times while making this. I don't even know why. Again, it all just moves me. Well, it's true that we are all being sappy for a three days now lol But, that's it... They move me. And i could stay here and talk about them (and what i feel) for hours, so better stop here. lol Thanks, Robert and Kristen. And congratulations for your win. 'Cause you always win! A few notes: - I apologize for bad quality clips. Nothing better has ...
