A Web-Based Lunch Ordering System
Maybe this article should be entitled "How I Discovered Python and Ditched Everything Else", instead. I have always wanted to write web-based applications but somehow found that getting started was quite intimidating. So, having procrastinated for years, I finally got around to writing my first application. My work required an intra-office application for which some values needed prompting on a web page. These values are sent to a CGI script, cross-verified via an SQL database, dispatched to a waiting process via sockets, and the results sent back to the web page.
By luck, I stumbled upon a scripting language called Python. I was reading a recent issue of Linux Journal (December 1999), in which they interviewed Eric Raymond, who mentioned that he now programs only in Python. At that point, I was a day into implementing the above system in Perl and was not quite finished. If Python was good enough for Eric, it was worth a try.
Well, I finished what I wanted to do in just over two hours. This was using a language that I had not heard of two hours earlier. At the risk of losing my professional advantage, I thought I would share with others how easy Python is to use, especially to do CGI (and almost everything else). As the above application would be too technical and boring to actually work through (and I'd probably get sued by my employers), I've decided to work through another, much more interesting exercise.
Work being situated in a semi-remote location (culinary-wise, except for the place next door, which has excellent food but is a bit expensive to eat lunch at every day), take-out lunch was organised to be delivered to us once a week. Each participant took turns organised the lunch orders. Being spread out over three floors, it was quite a chore, and no one looked forward to doing it. A web-based ordering system seemed to me the obvious solution but not having done any CGI programming before, it seemed quite overwhelming. The others did not seem to care. But writing CGI web systems can be quite simple, especially when one can do it using Python. (Okay, Perl gurus may disagree, but that's the whole point, i.e., a Perl guru versus a Python novice!)
I knew roughly how I wanted it structured. There'd be a web page with a pull-down list with the restaurant menu, and, by clicking on a submit button, an e-mail with the person</#146>s order would be sent to the nominated lunch organiser.
Based on hearsay and some cursory research on the Net, I decided to use the following tools:
Javascript for the client end (the web page)
Python for the server side
Apache for the web server, which is distributed with Linux (well, it was with my copy of Red Hat Linux 6.2); there is also a Windows version, too, if one is so inclined
Linux for the web server OS
In designing the web pages, I decided to keep it fairly simple: a pull-down box with some radio buttons (see Figure 1).
I could have used some HTML editor but decided that I could not handle learning another new package, so I did it by hand. Since what I wanted to do wasn't complicated, the by-hand method proved sufficient.
It was easy to install the web server using Linux. When I was installing Linux, the option to install Apache was ticked. When I typed in localhost as the URL to Netscape, it displayed the Apache page with the message that if I saw that page, everything was A-Okay! Whoo-hooo... so far so good. (See http://www.apache.org/ for more details). You'll probably need to be root (the superuser) to do the install.
Using Javascript to write a web page seems semi-obvious. There are several functions for data input verification (ValidLength() and ValidEmail()). MenuHeader() displays the header part of the page. Each call to MenuEntry() displays an input row. In this case, it is called four times, once for each lunch order item (see Listing 1).
The most tricky lines would be the ON-SUBMIT statement:
<FORM NAME="order" onSubmit="return Validate();" ACTION="http://localhost/cgi-bin/lunch.cgi" METHOD="POST">
There are two ways a web page can communicate with a CGI script: GET and POST. In a nutshell, GET sends the information as part of the URL (i.e., you might have seen some URLs which resemble http://localhost/script.cgi?param1=value1¶m2=value2 in your surfing of the Internet). When POST is used, the form information is sent via the standard input, i.e., the CGI script needs to read in standard input, and then parse the input separate out the various parameters.
It is generally accepted that POST is better (more robust, not limited by the maximum character limit of shell used). The methods used to extract the data differ according to whether POST or GET is used, but Python hides this from you (which is good).

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Drew Hansen, Contributor
I write about innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership
Steve Blank has argued that entrepreneurs are artists. I think that he's referring, in particular, to entrepreneurs who found scalable startups.
In an interview on Founderly, he compares the characteristics of founders to those of several famous artists, including Michelangelo and Beethoven. He makes this statement:
It's about a vision of what could be. And much like great composers putting together a symphony, founders are different from the early employees. The founders see the vision, but then they manage to attract a set of world-class performers.
I agree that entrepreneurs are similar to artists because they both possess a vision for something new. But not only that: they're both outsiders. More often than not, by the time the majority of the population accepts an artist or entrepreneur, he has moved onto the next project. Staying on the fringe, away from the mainstream, has its advantages.
From his position as an outsider, the entrepreneur can employ the discovery skills identified in the book, The Innovator's DNA.
Two of the discovery skills are questioning and observing. Without ties to the establishment, an innovator is free to continually challenge conventional thinking without risking serious backlash, and by maintaining a certain degree of aloofness, he can make clearer observations. In the introduction to a recent edition of Alexis de Toqueville's Democracy in America, Joseph Epstein notes one source of the author's prescience:
But detachment, the quality of never feeling fully part of any setting in which he found himself, was also useful for the polished observer and relentless analyst he was to become.
Successful entrepreneurs, it seems, habitually step back from the flurry of everyday activity to question and observe. In future posts, I'd like to debate which is more critical to entrepreneurial success: specialized knowledge or a fresh perspective.
You can watch the interview below. The comparison to artists starts at 4:30.
Couldn't agree more Drew. I was reading the profile of Zynga's Mark Pincus in Vanity Fair this afternoon. In it, you get such a strong sense of how he constantly felt like an outsider even while working at some of the most insider institutions in corporate America (Lazard, Goldman Sachs, a VC firm). Anti-authority and not feeling like he fits in is part of his schtick and it paid off for him very well.

I found it interesting that you connected entrepreneurs and "the discovery skills identified in the book, The Innovator's DNA." I can't help but wonder if it is the innovator who is an artist, more so than the entrepreneur.
Thanks for your reply. Very well thought out response.
I'm looking forward to future posts.
Innovation and leadership are rapidly becoming issues of personal lifestyle choice rather than institutional identity. What we're seeing are many millions of innovators and hence many millions of people taking on leadership identities – the problem for enterprises is engaging with this movement, embracing it and building new economics from it.
Drew, good article and very interesting perspective. Reminds me so much of what I wrote for an essay on entrepreneurship for a college scholarship.
"Entrepreneurship, in my eyes, goes far beyond business. It is an exciting realm with all the opportunities that exist today. It is the entrepreneur who sees opportunity where others do not and who takes risk, embarking upon an adventure to meet his or her goals and aspirations. The entrepreneur is an artist, who paints their unique vision using the world as his or her canvas. An entrepreneur is also a scientist, experimenting with their venture as a scientist would test a hypothesis, discovering what works and what does not. My major is Entrepreneurial Studies because being an entrepreneur is part of my vision."

What to Look for in Sensitive Skin Products
American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) reports more than 50 percent of patients have sensitive skin. There are many types of sensitive skin. AAD indicates sensitive skin care products marketed, don't specify which type of sensitive skin they work for, for example, acne or rosacea. However, AAD doctor members agree irritating, harsh ingredients can be one cause of sensitive skin. It's difficult finding the right sensitive skin products among the many on the store shelves.
If you suffer with acne, rosacea, burning, stinging, or skin allergies, you may have spent money trying different brands without success. Leading wellness authority, Dr. Flora Stay is committed in creating sensitive skin care products that are as clean and pure as your natural skin should be. This is the key for choosing the best sensitive skin products. Cleure personal care, skin care and cosmetics for sensitive skin are gentle and free of harsh chemicals and plant ingredients that often have side effects. Cleure offers high-quality, gluten-free and hypoallergenic products that are free of parabens, fragrance, and salicylates to help maintain health and youthfulness.

He's back—for a job he's done before.
State senator Joe Simitian (D-Palo Alto) announced Sunday that he would be running for Santa Clara County supervisor, a position he held from 1997 to 2000. Simitian's eight-year term in the state Senate will end in 2012.
The senator, who lives in Palo Alto, said he spent many months talking with his family before making the decision to run for the District 5 seat.
"I have found my time in Sacramento tremendously satisfying, but the roles are really very different," he said. "You have this wonderful opportunity to make policy for 38 million Californians (as senator), and I feel I have been able to have a significant impact on a number of different levels."
Currently, Simitian serves the 11th senate district, which includes thirteen cities: Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Cupertino, Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Campbell to Santa Cruz and Capitola. Santa Clara County's District 5 supervisor oversees the northern part of the county, to parts of the West Valley: Palo Alto, Los Altos, Mountain View, Los Altos Hills, Cupertino, Saratoga and Monte Sereno.
Simitian made the announcement at an annual event in Palo Alto which he calls a "community conversation." He said he usually invites a variety of experts and political insiders to discuss a compelling issue of the day. However, this time he decided to invite three former contest winners—a towtruck driver, a nurse, and a police officer—two of whom have seen their suggested laws implemented.
County residents elect the Board of Supervisors to four-year terms, up to a maximum of three terms in office. The Board convenes regularly to set policy for the County, adopt ordinances for unincorporated communities (areas outside of city jurisdictions), and oversee the budget.
That race is just beginning to take shape.
In September, Mountain View and former Saratoga mayor Kathleen King announced their decisions to run. That brings the number up to at least three people who have declared their candidacy for District 5, though last year more Mountain View councilmembers flirted with the idea of a run for County Supervisor in 2012.
In a statement, Abe-Koga said she is undeterred by the senator's entrance into the race. "I have the greatest respect for Sen. Simitian and the service he has given to the state," the former Mountain View mayor's statement read. "Joe and I have worked together in the past. I consider him a friend. And I welcome him to this race."
In addition to Simitian's previous stint as county supervisor for one term and his two terms as state Senator, the senator spent two terms in the state Assembly. Simitian was also President of the Palo Alto School Board and Mayor of the City of Palo Alto.
He outlined his desire to return to county government this way:
"Welfare, healthcare, public safety, these are all issues that the county deals with," he said. "It's very different kind of work...it's a 'roll up your sleeves and make it work' kind of a position."
One of the most pressing local issues facing the county is the state's push to move lower level criminal offenders out of state prisons and into local ones, an operation Simitian says will be a big challenge.
"I think it holds great promise, but it has to be done well and it has to be adequately funded. "
If elected, he would replace Liz Kniss—who also terms out—for the District 5 seat.

Ealing's top school governors honoured
5:30pm Sunday 29th July 2012 in Local News By Dee Dhara
OUTSTANDING school governors were rewarded for their excellence at the third Ealing Governance Awards.
Greenford High School, commended in its Ofsted report last November, won the Outstanding Full Governing Body award.
The award for best chair of a governing body went to Matthew Jeatt, of Wood End Infant School, Northolt. He was nominated by head teacher, Lucy Rogers.
She said: "Matthew has played a pivotal role in the success of the school and, therefore, has had a huge impact on our pupils and their outcomes."
Kuldip Gill, from North Primary, Southall, won the Individual Governor award, while Val Drake, of Twyford Academy, Acton, won the Clerk to Governing Body award.
Christine Peppiatt, chair of governors at Twyford, said: "Val has shown incredible application, persistence, attention to detail and problem-solving skills."

Welcome to The Not-So Private Parts where technology & privacy collide
Firefox-browser provider Mozilla has released an awesome new tool for seeing how you're being tracked on the Web. If you install the add-on Collusion, you'll be able to get an aesthetically-pleasing graph showing you how any site you visit is putting trackers on you like an endangered animal in the wild. After installing yesterday, this is what my graph looks like after 12 hours, at right. I've highlighted the sites that have marked me with the "Quantserve" cookie, from Quantcast, which measures audiences on any given site, breaking them down by age, gender, educational and income level, ethnicity, and when, on average, they lost their virginity. (Okay, maybe not that last one.)
"We are being watched. It's now time for us to watch the watchers," said Mozilla CEO Gary Kovacs in introducing the tool at TED yesterday, reports Wired. You can get the tool here if you're a Firefox user, or just see a demo of how it works to track the trackers on a few popular sites, such as the Internet Movie Database (IMDb), NYTimes.com and the Huffington Post.
Recently, some of my commenters here at the Not-So Private Parts have remarked upon the irony of reading a page about privacy that places quite a few trackers on them when they visit. Here's the visualization of some of the trackers added when you visit Forbes and come to my page:
Unfortunately, Mozilla's cool Collusion tool doesn't spell out what each of these does. But I'll break down some of the tracking darts shot into you here at Forbes:
I think that's a fair rundown of the tracking going on when you come to Forbes and come visit my page. Good luck in your travels 'round the rest of the Web….
Opposition to this ubiquitous information collection on Web surfers has given rise to "Do Not Track" — a signal you could turn on in your browser that would send out the message that you don't want to be shot with these darts. But " Do Not Track" is kind of a misnomer. It would more appropriately be called "Do Not Target" or "Track Me A Little Less." Here at Forbes, we could still track what you were up to on our site, but your behavior would not be tracked for the purpose of targeting you with ads. So only about half of the cookies above would get the boot.
This is a great article- gotta love the transparency.
One thing I'd like a little more info on is TrustE. You wrote a piece about a very useless and difficult-to-comrpehend privacy policy from a site that they consulted for. We did a little TrustE-bashing in the comments. I'd like to know more about what they do, how they actually provide value to companies, and their track record.
Frankly, my gut feel is that they are like the FDIC of Internet privacy, only without the $200k guarantee. Sites pay them to put their logo on the site and give a feeling to individuals "don't worry, this site is safe, TrustE has verified it". This makes the site-owner happy because I feel safe browsing, and TrustE makes a cosy little penny off of it. My question is do they really do much to help ensure privacy? And what is the track record of TrustE verified sites having privacy issues?
There's been a study that showed sites with TrustE logos are twice as likely to be unsafe: http://www.benedelman.org/news/092506-1.html
Awesome post!!! I see a homework assignment here for my University students. Maybe an alternative to "Do Not Track" would be to make it mandatory to include a similar tracking visualization in every privacy policy, complete with a key explaining the function of each tracker. Better yet, give each tracker a cool avatar or image. Maybe then people would pay attention to those privacy policies that few ever read.

2010 Ford Escape
scottsm Posts: 2I took mine back to the dealership again...and finally they loosened the engine motor mounts and exhaust system bolts in an attempt to neutralize the problem. This cured my vibration issues to the point it is not a problem anymore. I hope this helps you with your vehicle.
P.S. Ford Motor Company still say's this is not a problem and is a vehicle characteristic but my dealership was willing to try the above and it worked.
I get that squeek, or groaning sound, very often on acceleration. I've read in other forums where people are getting it, also.
Apparently, the word from Ford is that it is normal for this car. Doesn't sound right to me, other cars don't do this.
I only have 1k on the car now, when it goes for the first service I'll see what they say.
stever YooperlandPosts: 40,012Oh yeah, that happens too. It helps to get a VIN as soon as possible after you do the order. But your car can still get sold once it hits the lot.
Slow day? You're reading some old threads there. :shades:

"..the awd will also help when the roads are wet.."
But then only as you accelerate from a stop, accelerate from a fairly low speed, or accelerate in a fairly tight turn, low speed also assumed. These are the ONLY times you will have the F/awd system pre-emptively engaged. At all other times you will be driving a simple, inherently DANGEROUS (on adverse roadbed conditions) FWD vehicle.
Other than pre-emptively, as described above, the only time the rear drive will be engaged will be under the aspects of TC, Traction Control. Those TC events will ALWAYS be preceded by the detection of front wheelspin/slip(***). At which point TC will activate, instantly dethrottling the engine, "hammering" the front brakes, and simultaneously engaging (uselessly IMMHO) the rear drive.
Virtually USELESS F/awd system.
If you wish to have the dry road, highly tractive roadbed, traction and FE of FWD, but with the addition of appropriate torque distribution to the rear as necessary, then the Honda/Acura SH-AWD system is the only solution in the market today.
*** Front wheelspin/slip due to too much engine torque being used for current roadbed conditions is such a "dire" matter, THREAT to safety, that all "stops must be pulled out" on even the slightest hind of same.
Even having the VIN doesn't always help.
I had pre-ordered a 2000 Porsche C4 at MSRP, paid the dealer a deposit, but "my" car was sold to a higher bidder the moment it arrived. C4's were apparently in high demand but in very short supply in 2000. The dealer's "Pipsqueak" manager, Barrier Porsche in Bellevue WA, even denied I had made a deposit. My deposit was returned via USPS about a week later.
I have a 2001 C4 that I ordered over the internet, never met the dealer/salesman, took delivery of the Porsche at the factory.
vg33e power Posts: 314Precisely why I went with a 2004 Escape (back in 2004) instead of the 2005...that and the fact that I got a super killer deal. 2004 and older 4WD Escapes come with a similar system as the 2005 and up models which is FWD biased but will transfer traction to the rear wheels when slipage is detected. However, I am able to turn a switch on the dash and turn on "4x4" constantly up to 25 MPH which comes in handy if you know you are in slippery situation instead of waiting to slip and have power transferred to the rear wheels.
guster61 Posts: 1I have the same problem with my 2010 Escape, I just got back from the dealer and they told me that it is normal but there is a transmission chain that is causing the noise and there is a new chain they will install that will "reduce" the noise but not remove the noise totally. In any case I am having it done and they ordered the part. It will be an all day job involving dropping the transmission so they are gonna give me a loaner. I would suggest this to your dealer. I will post again after I have the work done and let you know the result.
hackattack5 Posts: 315"I had pre-ordered a 2000 Porsche C4 at MSRP, paid the dealer a deposit, but "my" car was sold to a higher bidder"
I ordered a F150 back in 94 and had all the signed paperwork. They sold it by mistake. My sister in law was a banker and told me that it is illegal to sell a car to 2 different people so I told the dealer that they broke the law and they let me pick out any f150 on the lot.
dtrain5 Posts: 1The 2010 6 speed auto has Drive and Low only. I drive in the mountains a lot where I traditionally shift in my Highlander (which had Drive, 3, 2 and Low) between 3 and 2 on these hills especially downhill in the snow.
The dealer said by disengaging the overdrive it will downshift from 6 to 4. This still concerns me - so now I can go from 4 to Low only?
Do you think this is a dealbreaker? My other option is the 2010 Subaru Outback which I think is a better car. However, as a single 30's guy, it scares me a bit since the 2009 and before were pure stationwagons.
They switched to rear drum before 2010. We have a 2009 V6 and it has drum brakes on the rear. Our 2007 had disc brakes all around. I was somewhat concerned about the switch as well, however, our 2010 brakes fine--smooth, no pulling and excellent pedal feel. The front brakes do most of the stopping. I suppose if I was driving in the Alps I might notice a difference, but as far as I can make out they are the equal to the all disc brakes on our 2007.
our 2004 has about 80k on it and has rear drums. they have been cleaned a few times, but original pads, still in the 'green' according to the last inspection report.
80% of braking is the job of the front brakes.
our 09 also has rear drums. they seem to work perfectly well.
Consumer Reports has complained about the brakes in the past, but they say the 2010 model is much improved.
That said, I think it was crazy for Ford to use this as a cost cutter. Almost any suv you buy today has 4 wheel discs. This was poor judgement, in my opinion.
Almost as bad as removing the grab handles over the driver's door. There is only one left, on the A-pillar of the passenger side. I have a bad back and bad knees, and I used them often on my 2002 Tribute.
This was almost a deal breaker for me, but I still bought a 2010 Mariner.

This is one of the best recipes I have ever made...and I cook 6 nights a week. I can't stress how perfect it is to any reader, but truly I never follow a recipe 100% and I made NO changes to this one. I even measured most things (which I never do) and it was PERFECT. I added extra crushed red pepper because we like spice and the recipe calls for just enough for one to taste the flavor of the red pepper, but not enough for a kick. I would recommend using unsalted butter at the end, since the capers and the olives provide plenty of salt to the recipe. I also added whatever fresh veggies I had in my garden. Thank you for this perfect recipe. I have not found a better recipe on this site.
My first instinct after reading through the recipe was that this seemed like a heck of a lot of sauce for just a few filets--it was. Half the amount would have been more than enough. I stuck to the recipe exactly, and hubby and I were both very pleased. The simmering brings all the flavors together nicely. I actually liked the sauce better than the fish (I did use sea bass), as I didn't particularly care for the filets poached. Were I to make this again I would pan roast the filets--I missed that beautiful golden color and semi-crispy exterior. I served this over a bed of Saffron Rice,accompanied with Cuban Black Beans I and Jicama Salad with Cilantro and Lime, all recipes from this site. A pretty, delicious and interesting Cuban style dinner!
This recipe was great! I used tilapia instead of sea bass and I omitted the olives and doubled the garlic and it was wonderful.

I'm sending an email newsletter that contains Unicode characters - curly quotes, em dashes, and so on. When I send the newsletter to myself (from our custom content management system, to my account at Gmail) and then read the message in Apple Mail, the Unicode characters come through properly when Mail is set to Automatic in Message > Text Encoding, as they should given our Content-Type headers (for appropriate editions of the newsletter):
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Type: text/html; charset="utf-8"
However, for a small number of people, including one who is also using Gmail (so the same receiving server), the Unicode characters are munged when Automatic is selected. If the message text encoding is changed to UTF-8, it works fine.
So what is it about Apple Mail, receiving the same message on the same server, that could result the automatic text encoding detection failing to pick up UTF-8 for the other person?

Parmy Olson, Forbes Staff
I cover agitators and innovators in mobile.
The world's biggest smartphone makers were all trying to out-shine their competitors at this year's Mobile World Congress, with most new devices boasting the same, large, flat screen with a button or two. Differentiation was in the details. To be among top dogs like Samsung and the increasingly-popular ZTE, phones needed a quad-core processor, shiny AMOLED screen and to be slim and light.
Apple was the elephant in the room. It refused to exhibit, even though its iPhone and iPad were top-selling devices. But both Apple and its competitors may be under pressure to leap to the next level of hardware in 2012, and not just by being more slim or more shiny.
Samsung is using its plastic-backed AMOLED devices to make phones that are lighter, thinner and include "foldable screens," according to Richard Windsor, a senior technology analyst at Nomura Group.
Nomura's analysts in Asia have said they expect to see Samsung "apply plastic substrate-based, bendable or curved displays for smartphones from [the second quarter of] 2012," and cite equipment manufacturers in Korea as their sources.
The analysts added in a recent note that the first example of this technology would not be in a smartphone screen that folded in half (though that may come later in 2013 in a clam-shell like device), but in a screen that folded over the edges of a phone, replacing the usual screen border or "bezel" so that the display continued onto the sides (see image above). The display would be "unbreakable and increases the exceptionally slim form-factor," they said.
"We expect Samsung to mass produce such panels for smartphones in 2012, which we believe would be more popular that the current OLED display equipped in SEC's Galaxy S II," Nomura's analysts said, adding that the use of film-coating technology and tempered plastic would reduce the weight of Samsung's tablet computers by 30%.
"Plastic displays will change the perception of handsets and tablet PCs in terms of design, thickness, and weight, and this would clearly differentiate Samsung's products from others, in our view," said the analysts. "This is why we like Samsung."
This isn't the first talk of foldable screens from Samsung. Last year rumors swirled that Samsung was working on a bendable phone called the Galaxy Skin, to be released in the second quarter of 2012. Samsung has denied the product exists; the images of the branded prototype came from a design student's conceptual project.
However Samsung has said publicly that it is working on "next-generation technologies such as foldable, flexible and transparent displays." And already a year ago at the Consumer Electronics Show 2011, it showed off bendable AMOLED screens that were 0.3mm thick and 4.5 inches across. Later in May, it was reported that researchers from the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology had built a prototype display that folded in the middle without a crease.
The question isn't so much "is the tech doable", the real question is "is it usable", "does it make my experience better"? So how does having a screen that "wraps" around the edges of the device make it "better"? If the touch sensitive portion also wraps, then you have the issue of having it figure out when you're just holding the device vs wanting to interact with an edge. If it doesn't, then it becomes informational only and what meaningful info could you put there? A foldable screen imho is far more interesting.
But in the end, Apple already sources screens from Samsung (though obviously not oled), saying that they're "behind" comes with the built in implication that no matter how much Apple would pay that Samsung will say "no" to supplying them with any new whiz bang screen tech, and up to this point, they've not shown any inclination to do that.
Obviously this is a mockup. Maybe samsung is just getting rid of all their buttons and using flat touch surfaces for volume control and power. Just an idea based on what i see. Icons on the side doesnt seem usable to me at this point. But who knows what the whole product really is. Maybe this is a bunch of BS like a lot of speculations abouut apple as welll.
What exactly is risky or bold about introducing a dozen "weird, new" devices? It's expensive, but not risky. If anything, it's their extreme risk aversion that's driving them to this strategy: try everything and see what sticks, rather than picking one thing and putting the whole weight of the company behind it.
It takes a lot of courage to say "we're only going to make one model". It doesn't take much courage to say "we're going to keep adding models until something happens to work".
It's like buying 100 lottery tickets. It'll cost you, and there's a chance it'll pay off big, but at a random game like the lottery, that chance is really tiny. Nobody describes buying 100 lottery tickets as "risky" or "bold". You don't get to be #1 at anything by luck.
I don't need that but I want it.
Apple and Samsung compete on Mobile and Tab advancement and features. Healthy competition indeed.

E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
I would like to think so but seems Apple is very intent in suing everyone, instead of letting customers decide…
Are those applications icons on the side? I can't imagine why a user would want something like that. I does look nice and would be useful if you just put things like the time or weather on the side, but that's about it.
I would think that touch sensitive sides are a prerequisite to make this technology work. The software must know whether your tapping the screen or just holding the phone. Having the touch sensor extend around the edges makes it possible for it to more accurately "see" what you're doing. If this is how it will work, I'm not even sure if they will actually have a the actual screen go around the edges, but probably only the capacitive touch sensor.

Your article contained some very useful information ("Hope for credit card users"), but I have one complaint: Why did you frame the issue solely in relation to families?
"When do families need credit the most?"
"There are other resources families can turn to..."
These issues affect single individuals as well, so why not say so?
It goes without saying, or should, that what affects single people is just as important as what affects families.

I know we still need a pitcher or three, but I'm nervous about our IF. Between Morneau and Parmelee we've got 1b covered, and I'm willing to accept Plouffe as a regular at 3b, but for the middle we've got Carroll, Dozier, Escobar, Florimon and Santana on the 40 man.
Carroll is the most proven guy, but he's getting old and isn't exactly a big threat offensively.
The other 4 guys have played in 190 MLB games COMBINED.
But what can we do to get a little insurance? Skip is going to the Dodgers, the Yankees signed Youk, Jack is headed to the Reds, Scutaro is with the Giants, Maicer Izturis went to Toronto.
Is there anyone left on the FA market or trading block that'd be worth throwing a flyer at? Is going forward with Grampa Jamey and the Kids our best bet?
Good question. Based upon the lack of movement it looks like the Twins plan to go forward with what they have. I think Kelly Johnson is still out there, perhaps a late signing like Hudson a few years ago is possible if no one else shows interest in him. He's not great, but an upgrade offensively over Florimon or Escobar. It was interesting how Ryan called for competition at 3B, but has been pretty silent about doing anything up the middle. Shouldn't be surprising based upon the guys we've had up the middle during most of Ryan/Gardenhire's time here though I guess.

I wonder if Ryan has been looking for someone willing to take a minor league deal w/invite to compete in Spring Training, someone that's actually more on the same level as Plouffe, for 3b.

All Women Suffered in Hilary Rosen-Ann Romney Fight
A silly girl-fight between two women spares politicians from answering the real issues affecting women.
It appears that the manufactured fight between Ann Romney and Hilary Rosen is just about over. And, as unfortunately happens in such cases, all women ended up being the losers.
There was a chance that the overwhelmingly-male candidates for state and federal office would have had to take a look at some tough issues affecting women. Why hasn't the Violence Against Women Act been extended? Why did mostly men lose their jobs during the recession (the "mancession," it was called), but men overwhelmingly were given the jobs that came back in the recovery? Why do women still only earn less than 80 percent of what men do? And why isn't contraception understood to be basic healthcare for women, who cannot plan their lives and certainly not their career, without the choice of using it?
[Read the U.S. News debate: Should the Violence Against Women Act Be Reauthorized?]
Those are good questions, but they've been pushed aside by a more media-titillating conflict between Ann Romney and Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen. Rosen foolishly and inartfully claimed that Romney "never worked a day in her life," a comment clearly meant to underscore the fact that Romney did not need to do paying work as the wife of multimillionaire Mitt Romney. It was taken, quite understandably, to be an insult to women who stay home and take care of their children all day—a lot of work, no question about it. The Romney campaign, hurting from a wide gender gap in the polls, thought it had hit the jackpot, and the Republican National Committee flooded reporters' inboxes with evidence of how much worse the Obama White House has been for women than the GOP.
Good strategy, for both parties. Pit women against each other, and they may not insist on answers to all those pesky questions.
Motherhood is tough, and it would be unrealistic to suggest that it is only as tough as fatherhood. It is mothers who are chided to "put their children first." Father's Day celebrates a man who provides for his family, notably managing to have both a family and another job for which he is paid. Mother's Day celebrates female self-sacrifice: put aside your own needs and ambitions for your husband and children, and once a year, you get taken out to brunch.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
It is mothers who end up feeling guilty—seemingly no matter what career-family balance they take on. Go to work outside the home and feel guilty about being away from your children. Stay home and feel guilty for not contributing to the family income. And sadly, it's often other women who judge each other. Women struggling against sexism and unequal pay at work resent women who seem to have it "easy" by staying home. Stay-at-home mothers might judge the woman who puts the kids in daycare so she can pursue her own job. Rarely is the father expected to stay home with his children, or to feel guilty about making the choice to work. And of course, for many couples, having one parent stay at home with the children is not economically feasible.
But turning the matter into some sort of silly girl-fight between two women—each impressive in her own way—spares politicians from answering the real issues affecting women. It's like what happened when Brad Pitt, a very public person married to another very public person, allegedly had an affair with a third very public person (which happens), but didn't have the common decency to be discreet about it. Did the tabloids and newspaper style sections wonder why either woman would want to be with someone who seemed to have no problem publicly humiliating his wife? No—it came down to "Team Angelina" versus "Team Jennifer"—as if a person's bad behavior was secondary to a competition between two women.
[Vote: Will the Hilary Rosen-Ann Romney Uproar Matter for the Election?]
Ann Romney stayed home with her five boys, all of whom appeared to have turned out quite well. Good for her. And Hilary Rosen is a successful political figure. Good for her, too. Neither has to defend her decisions about her work and family life. However, it does raise a question for the male candidates in both parties who piously defend the tradition of stay-at-home motherhood: How many of them offered, or even seriously considered, staying home with their children so their wives could pursue careers?

Terrell Owens worked out again on the side while his teammates practiced today in Orchard Park, and the veteran receiver looked pretty good running pass routes.
Owens worked out under the guidance of Bills trainer Shone Gipson in the fieldhouse, while the team practiced outside in the rain on the grass field. Owens looked like he was running pass routes at - or very close - to full speed. He was just running routes, not catching passes from a quarterback.
Owens will sit out a third straight exhibition game Saturday due to his sprained right toe. At this point, I'd be surprised if Dick Jauron risks him in the final preseason game since he is so critical to the BIlls' offensive plans.
Receiver James Hardy also ran pass patterns and some sprints with Owens. Hardy appears to be getting closer to practicing. He's 7 1-2 months removed from surgery to repair a torn knee ligament. Whetther Hardy will be well enough to open the season on the 53-man roster or will start the season on the physically unable to perform list remains uncertain.
Also sittiong out practice were Aaron Schobel, Drayton Florence, Demetrius Bell, Felton Huggins, Lydell Sargeant and Travis McCall.
Pat Thomas (calf) and Ashlee Palmer (ankle) both returned to practice Tuesday. They took part in individual drills but it did not appear they did any work in team (11 on 11) sessions.

PLYMOUTH, N.H., October 24, 2006 – Sophomore Jane Kelleher (Chatham, Mass.) scored two goals and junior Eileen Jenkins (Gorham, Maine) collected three assists Tuesday afternoon to lead Springfield College to a 4-0 victory over Plymouth State University in the field hockey home finale at Arold Field.
Springfield, ranked 16th in this week's Division III national poll, outshot the Panthers 16-0 in the first half but couldn't push one past PSU junior goalie Katie Randall. Randall made 12 first-half saves to keep the game scoreless through the first half.
The Pride kept up the pressure in the second half and broke through with four goals, the first three set up by Jenkins. Junior Brittany Veazie (Dexter, Maine) put the Pride on the board just 1:01 into the second half, and Kelleher added goals at the 27:47 and 24:27 marks to make it a 3-0 game.
Freshman Emilyann Murray (Boonton, N.J.) rounded out the scoring for the visitors with her first career collegiate goal with seven minutes remaining. Murray had a chance for her second goal but came up short on a penalty stroke attempt in the final minute.
Springfield finished with a 28-0 advantage in shots, and Randall finished with 19 saves for PSU.
The Pride will wrap up its regular-season when it travels to Trinity College on Thursday evening, October 26th, in a 7:00 p.m. non-league contest. SC looks to end its 2006 regular-season record with an impressive 15-4 record as the Pride heads into postseason play.

Summary of research interest:
The Drosophila (fruit fly) and knockout mouse systems are employed to study the functions of tumor suppressor gene VHL and anti-metastasis gene Nm23.
VHL (von Hippel-Lindau disease) gene mutations specifically cause renal cell carcinoma, hemangioblastoma (over-growth of blood vessels in the central nervous system), and a few other minor tumors. VHL protein has been shown to function as an ubiquitin ligase that targets such proteins as hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). We have demonstrated that VHL mutations in Drosophila and in human cancer cells resulted in defective endocytosis of growth factor receptors, FGFR in particular. This endocytic function is at least in part mediated by the anti-metastasis gene Nm23. Nm23 encodes a nucleoside diphosphate kinase that is potentially a GTP supplier for cellular GTPases. We showed that in Drosophila, Nm23 gene (named awd in flies) promotes the activity of early endosomal factor Rab5. The endocytic functions of these genes also contribute to their roles in establishing and maintaining epithelial integrity.
We are currently utilizing mouse models and primary cell cultures to analyze their molecular activities, and establish the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and angiogenesis in the mutants of these important gene functions.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., May 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Two confirmed cases of MERS in the US have increased travelers' questions about travel insurance. To address this, Squaremouth, America's fastest growing travel insurance comparison site, has launched the MERS and Travel Insurance Information Center.
The comprehensive webpage provides official position statements by Squaremouth's travel insurance carriers explaining their coverage options related to MERS. It also includes answers to frequently asked questions, travel warnings and a list of airports on high alert. The MERS and Travel Insurance Information Center is managed by Squaremouth's team of industry experts and is updated as events unfold.
"We wanted to be proactive with this information and have it readily available for our customers," says Megan Singh, Marketing Manager at Squaremouth. "At this point, there are still more questions than answers, but travelers can rest assured that as information becomes available, it can be found here."
As of Wednesday, May 14, the MERS outbreak has not been classified as a public health emergency, yet, airports throughout the country have already begun posting travel advisories and opening quarantine sections.
Currently, a travel insurance policy can still be purchased to cover a MERS infection, however this can change. One of the most important upcoming events is the date at which the MERS outbreak is deemed a "known event" or "foreseeable." Any travel insurance policies purchased after this date will not cover the virus.
Squaremouth will continue to update the MERS and Travel Insurance Information Center with official position statements, travel advisories and answers to travelers' questions.
For up-to-date information on MERS and travel insurance, visit Squaremouth's MERS and Travel Insurance Information Center.
About Squaremouth
Squaremouth is an online company that compares travel insurance products from every major insurance provider in the US. Using Squaremouth's comparison engine and customer reviews, travelers can research and compare insurance products. More information: www.squaremouth.com.

How could anyone expect business to grow and create new jobs?? Obama is an anti-business president. He broke the law by putting bond holders behind unions. He sued Boeing for opening a plant in a right-to-work state. He pushed for "card check" which would allow unions thugs to demand employee's signature in back allays. He paid for Obamacare by rolling the simple "medicare" tax into the 1040 form (adding billions to tax filing and payroll accounting costs).
Who will be our next president? Someone with a background in social injustice & civil rights & community organization? Or someone with a background of moving labor from low productivity industry to high productivity industry??
He sued Boeing for opening a plant in a right-to-work state.
That's at the margins.
He pushed for "card check" which would allow unions thugs to demand employee's signature in back allays.
One still has the freedom to seek another place to work.
Again, at the margins.
He paid for Obamacare by rolling the simple "medicare" tax into the 1040 form
Better to give the retired a VOUCHER and say, go buy some health insurance. Correct?
Yesterday at the Tomb of the Unknown Investor, Romney called for more spending on the military to match his 20% tax cut (on top of Bush43's tax cut). Bush41 correctly called it "voodoo economics."
Romney also wants the US to get involved in the Islamic war going on in Syria.
Sorry folks but they have been fighting this one since Muhammad died in 632.
How's that democracy thing going in Egypt?
Cairo (CNN) -- New protests erupted in Egypt's capital after news that ousted strongman Hosni Mubarak's former premier will face off against a representative of the Muslim Brotherhood in the country's presidential runoff.
In Tahrir Square, several thousand protesters called on Egyptian courts to disqualify former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafik, chanting, "Where is the revolution?" Others ransacked Shafik's campaign headquarters and set it ablaze after learning that he was one of the two candidates who made it through the first round of voting.
Not content to be involved in a regular war (gotta have on with a tax cut, it's a Neocon thing), Romney wants to call China a "currency manipulator" and start a trade war.
What happened to the separation of church and state you whine about?
There is EEOC that has gone after the christian church because the church fired a clergy teacher. The Supreme Court overruled that one. That was separation of church and state.
