Autism Awareness Day : UK Advocates Urging Brown, Cameron and Clegg

by URBAN COUNTERFEITERS
David CameronNick Clegg
  Autism Campaigners in the UK are urging three  political leaders  : David Cameron , Gordon Brown and Nick Clegg to take an intensive move on Autism on World Autism Awareness Day

Labour , the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats were asked by the UK Autism Foundation to speak and share their plans in the run up to 2010's General Election

Gordon BrownIn many parts of the world , families with members who have autism are facing an uncertain future. Reportedly, there are 60 million people with autism around the world.
This is the  statement of  Autism campaigner Ivan Corea : ‘I urge Philanthropists around the world to go to Africa, South Asia, South America and the Caribbean - build Autism Centres, Autism Schools and create autism awareness projects in the Third World. There is such a huge need where autism is concerned. Many have no public services and certainly there is a lack of provision for so many millions of children with autism. Philanthropists could work with national governments and local charities and help those who are in desperate need. This would make the United Nations World Autism Awareness Day so meaningful if philanthropists go to where the need is.’ The United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon has been asked to take this up with world leaders.
 The World Autism Awareness Day resolution is encouraging all Member States to take preventive  measures to increase awareness about autism in the  society and advocate early diagnosis and intervention.

Topeka: Google Officially Changed Name

by URBAN COUNTERFEITERS
Google has finally changed it's name to TOPEKA. Actually, Google refers to the Kansas City that changed name from TOPEKA to Google, and in order to be one of the cities where Google Topeka will start is 1Gbps fiber optic service.

According to the Google blog, both the company and the city have few things in common. The change of the name is not easy at all according to the company. There will be consequences and disruptions expected in time soon.

Here are the issues that Eric Schimdt wrote: (source: http://www.googleblog.blogspot.com/)
  • Correspondence to both our corporate headquarters and offices around the world should now be addressed to Topeka Inc., but otherwise can be addressed normally.
  • Google employees once known as “Googlers” should now be referred to as either “Topekers” or “Topekans,” depending on the result of a board meeting that’s ongoing at this hour. Whatever the outcome, the conclusion is clear: we aren’t in Google anymore.
  • Our new product names will take some getting used to. For instance, we’ll have to assure users of Topeka News and Topeka Maps that these services will continue to offer news and local information from across the globe. Topeka Talk, similarly, is an instant messaging product, not, say, a folksy midwestern morning show. And Project Virgle, our co-venture with Richard Branson and Virgin to launch the first permanent human colony on Mars, will henceforth be known as Project Vireka.
  • We don’t really know what to tell Oliver Google Kai’s parents, except that, if you ask us, Oliver Topeka Kai would be a charming name for their little boy.
  • As our lawyers remind us, branded product names can achieve such popularity as to risk losing their trademark status (see cellophane, zippers, trampolines, et al). So we hope all of you will do your best to remember our new name’s proper usage:
Finally, we want to be clear that this initiative is a one-shot deal that will have no bearing on which municipalities are chosen to participate in our experimental ultra-high-speed broadband project, to which Google, Kansas has been just one of many communities to apply.
