I use the s3 mini gt-i8190 for my work. Problem is that the memory is full after using it some time. A factory reset solves the problems for a few months.
I wish to remove the Samsung bloatware which I never use.
What are the posibilities for this phone. It currently runs Android 4.1.2 (I8190XXANA2)
A little help is much appreciated!

Topsy Turvy Planter?
Has anyone tried tomatoes in this upside down planter? What tomato variety? I,m wanting to give it a try,but it onlt holds 20 quarts of lite weight soil. Very interested if anyone has had a decent harvest. Thanks :)
I grew Anaheim Chile peppers in a topsy turvy last year .. it did okay. I think it would have done better if it had more sun.
This year I'm growing tomatoes in my topsy turvys.
There are pictures on my blog: jmaellis-sfg.blogspot.com

I am sorta bored and going through the older posts online... anyway, I've done the upside down tomato thing this year and everything seems to be going along nicely.
I have seen the topsy turvey thing and it has some nice points, but it seems small to me. I did mine with 5 gallon buckets. I wrote it up on my page if you are interested:
See the link below, and then look for tomato links on the side. (the link at the very bottom, not the gallery link just below here).
The gallery with photos is also online at
They are much bigger than the photos now, and are producing a respectful number of tomatos.

I planted cherry tomatoes in mine and they are doing well. You do need to water often about every other day and even more when it's hot. Water seems to just go right through it, so you need to wait a bit and water again. Finding a place to hang it was a challenge. It's fairly heavy when finished, you need to hang it on something strong like a 2 x 4 and NOT a plant hanger. This was a project for one of my kids.
My daughter gave me a planter for Mother's Day. I was quite sceptical, but have been delighted! I planted a cherry variety, and have harvested over 100, with at least 200 ready to ripen soon. It does require a lot of watering on hot summer days sometimes twice a day. It is heavy but is hooked to a pressure treated beam of our deck. I am really impressed with those who have made their own planters with 5 gallon paint buckets, but I don't think I'll get that ambitious!
This is from my garden blog, but its specific to this topic, so I am reposting it here. Sadly.
Well, I have come to the end of the season for my hanging vegetable experiment. How did it go? Not as well as I would have hoped or expected. My previous experiment with a small grape tomato plant in a hanging basket upside down had gone well enough. I do plan on trying it again next year. Ive given great amounts of thought to what went wrong.
I think all of my problem revolve around water.
Too much water all over the place
I had hung a soaker hose above my seven buckets and would turn it on full blast for a little while each each day. This caused a few issues I think Our city water cascaded all over the leaves of the plants any time we watered. There is a lot of crap they add into the water - chlorine, flouride, communism, errr scratch that last one - thats covered under floride. Anyway, its very bad for the leaves on plants (proven by my neighboor who delicately waters under his, versus I who started out the season spraying everything). The majority of the water in the bucket would drip out the bottom and roll down the tomato stem. This actually caused one of the hot pepper plants stems to rot away.
I decided about mid season when they stopped growing like crazy that I should stop watering with the soaker hose and do it by hand, which leads to my next problem.
Not enough water
Getting something to stand on to get into the top of the buckets to water was kind of a pain, so it rapidly feel by the wayside and the plants definately did not get watered regularly. I tended to water only when they looked like they needed it (which any good gardener knows is at the point where the damage has already been done).
Improvements for next year to the system
I need to find a better way to water. We plan on putting in a rainwater collection system (probably a hundred gallons or so) which will help with the hard city water. Distributing this to the plants will be tougher. I may try a drip hose, but will most likely try to do the watering by hand and just get on a routine with it.
Draining in the 5 gallon buckets has to be improved. I will be drilling several small holes around the bottom of the bucket to allow some draining out from places not around the stem itself. I also used wax paper to help retain the plant while it was getting settled. Next year will be landscaping fabric. Possibly enough to keep the stem off the bottom of the bucket (a few layers). The topsy turvey system accomplishes this with foam.
Deep planting.I plan on starting the rootball up higher in the bucket so more roots can grow out of the stem that is buried in the soil.
Dont pick the first few buds off. I had heard that this helped the plant to force more buds. Well even if it does - its not worth the I-told-you-soÂs from your wife when the plants donÂt do well.
Less crowding. I pushed them close together to get maximum effectiveness from the soaker hose. But they all tended to grow into each other. With no soaker hose we can leave them farther apart - more room, better airflow, more sun.
Some things must have went wellÂ
The deer netting over the top and down the sides worked wonderful
I will say that the ground cover I planted on the top seemed to do well, and the flowers made the whole thing look a little nicer.
The iron work held up wonderfully and the whole thing survived some very windy days.
Sigh. More to come if I come up with it.
Upside down tomato plants in th news!
Well sort of. A hot air balloon crashed in the yard behind me (everyone was fine except the lawn) and the local NBC affiliate came down, and sure enough there was a nice panning out shot of my tomato plants.
Too bad they did not look better.
I guess that was there 15 seconds of fame.
Drip hoses for sure next year, or something similarly autowatering...
You know, I sat here thinking about this for a bit... wouldn't these upside down planters suffer from the problems of waterlogging and airflow at the bottom that Al describes in the container forum? Seems to me if that issue could be solved, maybe less issues would be had with these kinds of plantings. (Read Al's stuff over there, just do a search for "Al's Mix" here, for the issues.)
I like this idea. I have five big 6' tall, 4' wide arches, they are 4' deep of 4"x4" cattle panel, and I trellis stuff up each side. But the inside of the arches is open. (Which is nice for picking stuff at harvest time.) They are ideal for hanging stuff, like potted plants. It would be kind of cool if I could hang a couple peppers and tomatoes in the middle of the arches (which get full sun even if covered in vines from the sides) too.
I just don't really grok the logic of how these planters work. In theory, I can't think of how that process would *not* cause over-moisture at the bottom (which would affect the stem) even if it was over-dry at the top, or how you could avoid that every watering done in any practical way would douse the whole plant.
Im sorry to say that I was dumb enough to try one on a lark this past week. The water in the container constantly dripped down the plant (Yes, water is subject to gravity!) and kept both the stem and leaves drenched in dirty, soil-containing water 24 hours per day. And anyone who has ever grown tomatoes knows that the one thing you do not want to do is keep the leaves and stems of your plants constantly soaked in dirty water. The healthy little plant I placed in this ridiculous container lasted only about 3 days before dissolving into a little ball of dead, green goo. How the heck this company can get away with selling a product so patently bad and ill advised is beyond me. For me, this worthless little emperor has not a STITCH of clothing! Please spread the wordif you buy this product you are very likely doing nothing more than flushing your hard-earned money down the toilet.
Does anyone have ideas for hanging. My eaves have no wood behind the siding and the screws pull out with the weight of regular flower pots. These are considerable heavier and I was thinking of a 2x4 wooden hanging system, anyone with ideas?
Others have echoed my experience. This is a novelty more than anything. I made my own bucket but they really did need watering EVERYDAY.
Plus you have find a place to hang the bucket from. Then choose a variety of tomato that will not grow all the way to the ground or why bother?
If you have no place else to grow a tomato give this a try. I think they just grow better when planted in the ground.
Below is another link to the upsidedown idea.
I tried growing tomatoes upside down once. It was my first attempt at growing anything. We bought 4 5 gallon buckets filled them with soil recommended by the nursery, and hung them on a plant hangar thingy. We didn't have much success. The vines grew like crazy - Jack and the Beanstalk crazy. I was constantly on the lookout for a giant yelling fee fi fo fum. Despite all that growth we didn't get a single bloom. I finally figured out that the soil had too much nitrogen in it, but by that time I'd pretty much lost interest in the plants, so I didn't try to correct the soil.
The trick is choosing a plant and a place to hang that is high enuff for the plant but YOU can still reach it to water it everyday. For many that may mean a step-stool.
So, If you are under 6ft tall or have to rely on someone else to do the daily watering, I think you should prob plant in the ground.
This really is a novelty more than anything. And you can make you own from a bucket rather than pay $20 plus S&H for the hangar. Then still have to pay for the plant AND the potting soil. Some pricey tomatoes ;-)

Planting Pomegranate Trees--now or later?
I'm debating on whether to purchase and plant new pomegranate trees this Fall or wait until Spring. My hope is that by planting them in the Fall, they'll have enough root growth (in the heavy clay soil I have) to be ready for next year's hot weather. When is the optimal time in the DFW area? Any recommendations?
Wait until spring. I've planted pomegranates in the fall and lost them. They aren't very hardy here, and the babies don't stand a chance. Plant big ones in the spring (as big as you can afford) and then let them grow all year. Once they are mature they have no problem withstanding our winters.
I've actually got some that I rooted that I'm letting grow as big as they can in pots. I'll plant them next spring or the spring after that if they aren't big enough. It's a special variety and we've already lost SO MANY immature ones that I am not willing to risk it with this variety.
Willyt, I was planning on getting a "Wonderful" because I definitely want fruit. Can you recommend another variety? I plan on putting it in a container for a couple of years although I won't bring it inside in the winter unless absolutely necessary.
My cats won't leave anything alone that has leaves on it! One will try to eat and the other will try to climb it. Don't even ask me about Christmas! ARGH
You might check out the discussion on the link below.
In the spring I planted in the ground two "Russian" poms. I had them in pots for a couple years and overwintered inside. Whether they will survive outside up here in the panhandle is anyone's guess at the moment.
You should have much better odds in zone 8. But, I agree the spring is probably a better time to try so they can get rooted in as much as possible before the cold hits.
Good luck.

B.C. privacy commissioner investigates concerns about police photo technology
B.C.'s privacy commissioner has launched an investigation into whether police are complying with privacy laws when they use cameras mounted on patrol cars to photograph vehicles and licence plates.

VICTORIA—B.C.'s privacy commissioner has launched an investigation into whether police are complying with privacy laws when they use cameras mounted on patrol cars to photograph vehicles and licence plates.
Privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham says the so-called automated licence plate recognition program allows police to compare the photos to a list of licence plate numbers associated with people who are of interest to police.
The program instantly notifies police when there is a match.
Denham says members of the public have raised concerns about the use of the technology and its implications on people's privacy.
She says the investigation will focus on the use of the program by the Victoria Police Department, but a report expected to be published later this summer will provide guidance to all B.C. law enforcement agencies that use it.
The privacy commissioner will also conduct a second investigation in August into whether public bodies are complying with regulations when they disclose public-interest information, such as environmental harms or risks to health and safety.

This invention was made -with Government support under contract F33615-90-C-1504 awarded by the Department of the Air Force. The Government has certain rights in this invention.
The present invention relates to cooling of solid state lasers and, more particularly, to passive cooling of such lasers by fixed and/or variable conductance heat pipes.
The removal of heat, generated in the course of stimulating coherent emission from a laser device, can be effected through the use of any one of many conventional active and passive cooling methods and implementations, and is dependent upon the specific type of laser to be cooled and the environment in which it is to be used. The present invention is directed specifically to solid state lasers which are pumped by such pumping means as laser amplifier diodes and flash lamps. Because the preferred pumping implementation comprises laser diodes used in combination with a solid state laser, the following discussion will be specifically directed to this combination. However, it is to be understood that the present invention is not intended to be limited to this specific combination, but to a combination of a solid state laser and pumping means therefor.
In general, types of thermal management systems include liquid cooling, conduction cooling (e.g., by a metal strap), heat pump cooling (e.g., by a thermoelectric cooler), vapor phase refrigeration, and heat pipe cooling. Each has its advantages and disadvantages.
While liquid cooling can provide a low incremental temperature, it is complex, has moving parts, consumes power, is susceptible to clogging and, therefore, is unreliable, and requires active temperature control.
The major attractions of the conductive cooling technique is its simplicity, as not having any moving parts, and its reliability. However, it is heavy and thus unsuitable such as for use in air or space borne vehicles. It cannot be readily packaged in different configurations, and is limited to conduction from fixed points. Auxiliary heating and cooling control is required.
The heat pump or thermoelectric cooler is compact and lightweight, but consumes power and requires active temperature control.
The major advantage of the vapor phase refrigerator is its ability to handle large differential temperatures. However, it is heavy, large and inefficient. Its reliability is questionable, as being subject to leaks. Like all of the above techniques, active temperature control is required.
Fixed and variable conductance heat pipes are passive and efficient; therefore, active temperature control is not required. They are reliable, lightweight, compact and have no moving parts. In recognition thereof, they have been used directly with space based laser diode transmission, see, e.g., "Variable Conductance Heat Pipe Technology for Precise Temperature Control of the NASA/DDLT Transmitter" by D. E. Vanevenhoven and D. Antoniak, presented in SPIE Vol. 1044 Optomechanical Design of Laser Transmitters and Receivers (1989), pages 135-144. As explained therein, the temperature of a laser diode transmitter must be precisely controlled to maintain its transmitting frequency stable. Such control was obtained by use of a variable conductance heat pipe placed between the laser diode and the radiator to shut off heat flow with a very small drop in laser diode temperature. This was said to eliminate costly heater power consumption, to provide tight control of temperature and to reduce space radiator size, in replacement of a conventional thermostatically controlled heating system.
The present invention recognizes the advantages and disadvantages of the above-described mechanisms, and improves upon them.
In general, a solid state laser assembly, which includes the combination of a laser pumping device positioned adjacent to a laser rod, is maintained at an operating temperature by at least one heat pipe thermally coupled to both the pumping device and the laser rod assembly for removing heat therefrom.
In the preferred embodiment, the laser assembly includes a pump cavity configured as an I-beam having two pairs of terminal faces respectively bounding a pair of elongated U-shaped channels. The preferred pumping means comprises a plurality of laser diode arrays which comprise diode bars and which are assembled into two groups. The diode array groups are placed on opposed sides of the laser rod. A pair of heat pipe assemblies are physically and thermally secured at their evaporator sections respectively both to the mounting block of the diode array assemblies and to the pairs of terminal interfaces. Each diode array mounting block physically and thermally supports each diode array assembly for spreading heat therefrom to its evaporator section. Heat is thus removed from the laser rod through the pump cavity to the heat pipe assemblies, and from the diodes also to the heat pipe assemblies.
Several advantages are derived from this arrangement. Both the solid state laser rod and its pumping medium are passively cooled, while the pumping medium is maintained at its optimum operating temperature. Because passive cooling requires no power therefor, the overall efficiency of the system is improved. No moving parts are needed. Adjustment to changes in external temperatures over even a broad range is automatic. The heat pipe design is relatively simple, and thereby enhances system reliability and efficiency.
Other aims and advantages, as well as a more complete understanding of the present invention, will appear from the following explanation of an exemplary embodiment and the accompanying drawings thereof.

FIG. 2 is an exploded and enlarged perspective view of the laser head and the evaporative end of the heat pipe assembly depicted in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a top view of the pump cavity housing portion of the laser head shown in FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the pump cavity housing taken along line 4-4 of FIG. 3;

FIG. 6 is view, partially in cross-section and partially cut away, of the laser head depicted in FIG. 2;
FIG. 7 is cross-section of the laser head taken along line 7--7 of FIG. 6; and
FIG. 8 is a view of a portion of the laser head and heat pipe cooling arrangement therefor illustrating the heat flow from both the laser rod assembly and its pumping diode arrays.
FIG. 1 illustrates an assemblage 10 of a passively cooled solid state laser head 12 and a heat pipe cooling arrangement therefor generally denoted by indicium 14. Heat pipe cooling arrangement 14 includes at least one heat pipe cooling mechanism defined, preferably, as a pair of heat pipe assemblies 16.
As to be more fully described herein, see also FIG. 2, laser head 12 includes a laser rod 36 and a pumping medium, such as an array 60 of laser diode bars 62 (shown in FIG. 7) or a flash lamp. To obtain efficient pumping of the laser rod, the output wavelength of the pumping medium must be controlled within a specified range; otherwise, the pumping efficiency will be adversely affected.
Heat pipe assemblies 16 are of conventional design and each may comprise a fixed or a variable conductance type having evaporator and condenser portions 18 and 20 coupled together by an adiabatic portion 22. Each heat pipe assembly 16 is thermally coupled to laser head 12 at its evaporator portion 18 in order that heat, which is generated by the laser head, can be transferred through its condenser portion 20 to a heat sink. The thermal connection to the heat sink may be direct or indirect, depending upon the environment in which the present invention is to be used.
For space or flight applications, heat pipe cooling arrangement 14 and the heat sink connection have the following preferable construction. Assemblies 16 utilize fixed conductance heat pipes. The heat sink connection comprises the use of a heat storage device 24 thermally coupled at one side 26 to condenser sections 20 of heat pipe assemblies 16 and at its other side 28 to a space radiator 30 through a variable conductance heat pipe 32. Heat storage device 24 includes a phase change material (PCM). The use of phase change material in combination with heat pipe structures is discussed, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,673,030.
In such space and flight applications, heat pipe assemblies, embodied as fixed conductance heat pipes, connect laser head 12 and any associated electronics and, if desired, other heat generating components to heat storage device 24, which thereby acts as a dedicated heat capacitor. Variable conductance heat pipe 32 is then used to connect storage device 24 to space radiator 30 or other suitable heat sink. This arrangement limits the temperature variation at laser head 12 and, most importantly, its laser diode bars 62 for reasons given below, to a variation of a few degrees-while the ambient temperature at radiator 30 can vary over a wide range, e.g., from the heat of the sun to the cold of space.
Specifically, when the temperature exterior to laser head 12 is greater than its temperature, heat therefrom is conducted to heat storage device 24 containing the phase change material (PCM), which absorbs the heat. When the exterior temperature is lower than that of the laser head, heat will be removed both from the laser head and from the heat storage device and the phase change material therein.
It is important that diode arrays 60 be operated at a junction temperature, e.g., of 70� C., which is defined as the actual temperature at the emitting diode surface. It is this temperature which controls the output wavelength of the diode array which, in turn, controls the laser pumping efficiency. Studies show that the diode temperature variation should be restricted to �10� C. to limit the wavelength variation of the diode output to about 3 nanometer. Accordingly, because the temperature of the diode junction must be controlled to within several degrees, the temperature of heat storage device 24 is also restricted to the same range. This result is accomplished by using a fixed capacitance heat pipe as each assembly 16 between laser head 12 and heat storage device 24. However, because the surface temperature of space radiator 30 may differ from that of heat storage device 24 over a period of time, variable conductance heat pipe 32 is used to maintain a relatively constant temperature of heat storage device 24 and, therefore, of the diode junction.
Reference is now made to the details of the present invention, as illustrated in FIGS. 2-7. As shown in FIG. 2, laser head 12 includes a two piece laser pump cavity housing 34 which supports a laser rod 36, for example a Nd:YLF (neodymium-yttrium lithium fluoride) laser rod. Housing 34 is formed from any suitable thermally conductive material, such as aluminum.
Laser rod 36 is supported in housing 34 in any suitable manner, such as by the arrangement disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,637,028, and which is also shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. The FIG. 6 and 7 supporting arrangement depicts a sapphire tube or sleeve 38, an elastomer 40 between sleeve 38 and rod 36, and another elastomer 42 between sleeve 38 and housing 34. The laser rod is encased in sapphire tube 38 and is supported therein by elastomer 40, which comprises a suitable thermally conductive, transparent elastomeric material and which fills a small gap between rod 36 and sleeve 38. A sealant is used as an end seal for sleeve 38. Thus, the elastomer both structurally supports the laser rod and eliminates stress induced bifringence due to thermal expansion of the rod, and additionally maintains thermal contact between the rod and the sapphire sleeve for efficient heat transfer from the rod to the sleeve. Elastomer 42 comprises a suitable thermally conductive material, for example, an aluminum filled elastomer, to ensure that heat generated in laser rod 36 will be conducted to pump housing 34.
More specifically, as shown also in FIGS. 2-5, two piece housing 34 includes a central portion 44 having an I-beam configuration closed and supported by ends 46. The I-beam configuration defines a pair of opposed, outwardly facing U-shaped channels 48 which open at their centers. The two piece construction of housing 34 forms two T-shaped structures whose legs 50 extend towards each other from cross-bars 52 and terminate in curved surfaces 54 that are spaced from one another. Curved surfaces 54 not only thus form a cylindrically shaped opening, which defines the cavity for laser rod 36, but also side openings 56 extending into U-shaped channels 48.
Cross-bars 52 terminate in surfaces 58, to- which evaporator sections 18 of heat pipe assemblies 16 are structurally and thermally secured.
As best illustrated in FIGS. 2, 6 and 7, for each U-shaped channel 48, there are a group of array assemblies. The array assemblies comprise an array 60 of laser diode bars 62 mounted on a mounting block 64, for example of copper, which acts also as a heat spreader. Each assembly is structurally and thermally secured to its associated evaporator section 18. Laser diode arrays 60 are positioned adjacent openings 56 so that the light from the laser diode bars will cause a laser pumping action in laser rod 36. Laser diode bars 62 of arrays 60 may comprise any conventional construction, provided that, as arrays, they provide sufficient energy to obtain stimulated emission in the laser rod. Diode arrays 60 may be replaced with a flash lamp, provided also that it produces sufficient pumping energy.
All parts are secured together in any convenient manner, such as by metal screws, to ensure both a secure physical and thermal engagement.
As disclosed, laser head 12 is configured to provide a two-sided pumping. However, if desired or needed, greater or lesser pumping may be provided. As an example of further or additional pumping, another pair of diode array groups may be positioned 90� with respect to the first pair about laser rod 36. If space does not permit, the second pair may be axially, as well as normally, displaced about the laser rod with respect to the first pair. Accordingly, depending upon the laser pumping needs, laser head can be configured to provide one sided pumping or multiple sided pumping.
Operation of the present invention may be understood with reference to FIG. 8. Energization of arrays 60 of the laser diode bars pumps light into laser rod 36, causing it to produce stimulated emission. As an adjunct, the temperatures of both the laser diode bars and the laser rod increase. Heat is conducted from rod 36 into legs 50 of pump housing 34 and thence through the four surfaces 58 of cross-bars 52 into evaporator sections 18 of heat pipe assemblies 16. Heat from diode arrays 60 is conducted into heat spreader mounting block 64 and thence also into evaporator sections 18.
Although the invention has been described with respect to a particular embodiment thereof, it should be realized that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

Carmel Cabernet Sauvignon Appellation Series 2009
Carmel - Galilee - Israel - Upper Galilee
Despite less than ideal climatic conditions, featuring storms which threatened an otherwise perfect year, most parts of California had an excellent year for viticulture. Chardonnays and Sauvignon Blancs were picked at optimum ripeness, and Californian white wine was just about as good as it could be. Surprises and overcoming difficulties summed up much of the United States' wine industry in 2009, and many of the results from Oregon, Washington State and all over California speak for themselves, with the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon grapes having developed healthy, thick skins and thus plenty of character and distinction. Elsewhere in the New World, South Africa had a very good year in 2009, and wineries across the cape of the African continent are proclaiming it a truly great vintage. In most of Europe, fine weather and punctual ripening periods produced some excellent wines, with many of the best coming out of France's Bordeaux and the surrounding regions. Merlot had an exceptionally good year in France, and wineries are proclaiming that the 2009 Merlot harvest was one of the best in living memory. Indeed, across most of France, ripening was relatively even, and red wine grapes such as Cabernet Franc, Syrah and others were reportedly highly characterful, with plenty of the required tannin levels with which to make high quality wines. Italy, too, had a very good 2009. Piedmont reported extremely favorable conditions throughout 2009, and their signature Nebbiolo grapes were more or less perfect when harvested, having benefited from the slight drop in temperature at the end of their ripening period. Veneto, too, had an enviable year, producing superb Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay wines in 2009.
From the valleys of California and Chile to the rolling hillsides of the Bordeaux region of France, the one red wine grape varietal you will find in abundance is the Cabernet Sauvignon. This darkly colored grape has been cultivated since the mid 18th century, when it was borne from a cross of fine Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc varietals. Since then, it has spread around the world and has been received with pleasure by wineries looking for a varietal which delivers excellence of flavor and aroma, whilst being hardy enough to resist frost and rot and other such difficulties. Indeed, Cabernet Sauvignon is probably the most recognizable red wine grape varietal on earth, and is easily distinguished by its high tannin level and acidic nature, which is often so beautifully mellowed by being blended with Merlot and other such grapes.
Galilee is not the first place many people think of when they consider New World wines, yet this small region of Israel, with its millennia of historical and cultural significance has developed a relatively strong and unique wine making identity over the past few centuries. As with neighboring Lebanon, Israeli wines have a distinctly Gallic edge to them, and the rich and fertile vineyards found around the base of Mount Tabor have proven to be a more than adequate home to a wide variety of Bordeaux grapes, from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Sémillon, Chardonnay and many others. The volcanic soils are packed full of important minerals, and the blazing sunshine helps the grapes reach full ripeness whilst expressing many of the fine features of their excellent terroir. The result is a fascinating range of wines, made according to kosher laws in one of the world's most interesting regions.
The vineyards of Israel have long been associated with high quality wines, and the wineries which operate within the country use the fantastic Mediterranean climate and mineral rich soils to grow fine French grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvigon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc all over the country. Israel has five major wine regions; Galil, The Judean Hills, Shimshon, The Negev, and the Sharon Plain, with many of the most successful vineyards being located at high altitudes to benefit from the cooler temperatures and stronger breezes the vines need to produce better yields. Today, Israeli wineries are proving to be highly successful with audiences around the world, and the fact that the vast majority of Israeli wines are made to kosher requirements mean they are often in high demand amongst the worldwide Jewish population, although they are also highly popular with people of all backgrounds.

First time here, found the food to be very good however you pay for all the toppings. Disappointed in that fact. My husband got the big burrito which ran $7.50 with all the toppings it came to $10. Music is also very loud.
This place is a gem......one of the best quesdillas you will ever have. Food is fresh and made to order.....never disappoints except why do they have to charge extra for sour cream????
A unique menu made up of items from local vendors. Great presentation and service. Would go back again in a minute. Bartender Ethan is the Best!!!
We were not in the mood for a greasy slice of pizza, fried something, or a sandwich. This place seemed to fit the bill. A burrito on a whole wheat tortilla, with brown rice, beans, cheese, veggies.... Fairly healthy.
This places loses some points with me though, because I found the flavors to be a bit subtle. Perhaps I should...
An amazing burrito restaurant. Very quick as you stand in line and pick out your toppings to put on the burrito. Very clean within the food area and the dining part as well.

The choices presented for building burritos were great. We liked the kids menu. When we asked for tap water we were charged for sodas with no mention that they simply assumed we would be okay with bottled water. Since no check/bill was presented prior signing the credit approval, I was puzzled over the total being higher than I expected. I...
Stopped in here on vaca after reading the reviews on trip advisor. Cute little spot tucked into a building downtown in Laconia. (we almost missed it)
Food was petty good, although at 7:30 on a Saturday, the place was a ghost town, but maybe this area of the town shuts down early.
They do have gf options for both tacos...
Liked: food all good, nice area for seating. Many healthy options
disliked: not many options, busy weekdays at lunch
I have only had the burritos and salads but I love them both. They are made infront of you as you order and you tell them what and how much you want on it. Everything is homemade and delicious. I am a lunch time regular there now.
Very good but typical burrito fare. Price was good. Location is downtown but has interesting places nearby to see and shop.

In 2005, when the Xbox 360 first came out, the gaming console was manufactured at plants in China but, in 2011, it was also manufactured in Brazil. The three companies to produce the Xbox 360 initially were Celestia, Wistron and Flextronics.Know More
The Xbox Product Group was stated as saying that the initial choice to include three contract manufacturers for the Xbox 360 platform enabled the company to have the level of flexibility and efficiency that they needed for consumer demand.
The Xbox 360 is a Microsoft gaming system that is played around the world. It is a complete gaming and entertainment experience. It has a Kinect connectivity component that allows streaming of high-definition movies, live events, music, sports and TV shows on to a person's other devices such as their phone, handheld gaming console or television set. This occurs through applications such as Amazon Instant Video, YouTube, HBO, Redbox Instant, Hulu Plus, Crackle, Twitch and Machinima. It is also possible to view the Internet on a person's television set through the use of the Xbox 360.
There are literally thousands of games that can be played on the Xbox 360 with controllers for true action. Nike has also partnered with Xbox 360 to bring Nike+ Kinect Training at home. The program uses real-time feedback and coaching to help users get in shape to reach their fitness goals.Learn more in Gaming Consoles
There are several things that cause an Xbox 360 to freeze up, including a scratched disc. To determine if the disc is the issue, users should remove it and check for scratches.Full Answer >
When an Xbox 360 controller flashes continuously, it typically indicates that there is interference between the controller and the Xbox, the controller needs new batteries or there are already four controllers connected to the Xbox.Full Answer >
The Xbox 360 is a gaming system developed by Microsoft. Players generally play from a game disc. However, it's possible to save and install games on the Xbox's hard drive. This allows the game to load faster and not have to rely on the disc for information. Installing a game is simple and easy, but when completed, players still need the disc to initiate the game.Full Answer >
There is a GTA V version that is available on the Xbox One. The game was originally released on the PS3 and Xbox 360 in September 2013. On September 12, 2014 the game developers, Rockstar Games, officially announced Xbox One and PS4 versions of the game.Full Answer >

...but now that you mention it... I could go for another.
Dude, I can always go for a burger.
I could so go for a mushroom and swiss cheese burger right now.....
Isn't that the point of this board? It's a tool created by the corporate machine to sell more burgers?
I'm sure that was it. But yeah, I could go for a burger right about now. Anyone heard of Fatburger? Their burgers sound like they may be dripping in fat, sounds delicious. I want to try it someday.
I could definately go for a veggie burger & fries

1 recommendation
This happened to me yesterday on an LTC bus. One douchebag (covered in tats, baggy jeans, piercings and a wife beater) accompanied by two fat chicks. Bad enough, there were many empty seats at the back, they just chose to stand right in the doorway and be annoying assholes.
As for the door blockers.. that's easy, I just "stumble" right into them.
I live near the Toronto/Vaughan border and occasionally take the TTC. The newer TTC buses do not have steps at the rear door. It seems that half the time some inconsiderate person decides to stand in the doorway. Sometimes it's even 2 people, so anyone getting off has to squeeze in between them.This happens even when there are lots of empty seats on the bus, and the persons aren't getting off at the next stop either. They'll often stand in the doorway for half an hour during a long trip.
Are these the Nova buses?Are you aware they're designed and made in Quebec according to government and transit authority mandates and specifications?Now do you understand why they're so poorly designed?
Those low floor buses are a joke, the hold less people and you gotta be 5ft tall to sit in the seats on the riser part, or your knees are in your face.I think it's mandated that all public transportation be "accessible" now. I don't have a huge issue with it, since I'm sure it costs a bundle to run the taxis, let alone the stand alone Wheel Trans buses.
Nope, TTC doesn't use Novas. To be honest, living in Gatineau, I ride them a fair bit now and they're by far the best low floor buses i've ever rode, maybe even better than the Van Hools used by VIVA in York Region.
When I was in Gatineau, the Nova low-floor buses were often on the side of the road waiting to be towed. Some didn't even make it from St-Eustache to Montréal, just a few kilometers apart. They may have improved over the years, however. I remember a news report a few years back to the effect that a lot of the STM fleet of Nova were lemons that were always in the shop and taking a toll on their ability to have the required amount of buses on the streets.I hate low-floor buses - not enough seats, which is particularly annoying for long rides. I was taking express route 88 and those buses were always so full as to have people on the steps at the front of the bus (kind of scary with the route taking hwy 50 back then).It was always a blessing when one of the older (high-floor) buses showed up instead of the low-floor p.o.s.
another annoying thing is the people with the cellphones playing loud annoying music. i hate to say it but its mostly blacks.
Posting statements like that even if true will get you the racist label in here. Try to be a little more culturally sensitive from now on.
TTC was able to push their fleet of 70's and 80's GM New Looks right up until the end of 2011, when they were retired not because of mechanical issues, but because they weren't accessible.
In all fairness, the only reason that the TTC was able to run the New Looks/Fishbowls for so long was because they bought so many retired ones from other transit agencies for parts (the mass purchase of retired Montreal Fishbowls comes to mind). Otherwise the parts supply would have dried up years ago.

'Avengers 2′ Trailer Sneak Peek! First Look at Hulkbuster, New Look at Ultron
Can't wait until next week's episode of 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' to see the 'Avengers 2' trailer? We feel your pain. While we can't make the 'Avengers 2' trailer magically arrive like some kind of Scarlet Witch, we can offer you up this very cool sneak peek at the new footage. How about a first look at Tony Stark in the new Hulkbuster Iron Man armor, plus an all-new look at Ultron?
'Guardians of the Galaxy' Soundtrack to Be Released on Cassette Tape in November
As successful as 'Guardians of the Galaxy' was at the box-office (and, as the highest-grossing film of the year, it certainly was that), the film's iconic soundtrack was equally as successful. "Awesome Mix Vol. 1" spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and is currently the 10th largest selling album of 2014. You've been able to buy the digital album, the CD, vinyl and even a "Deluxe Edition," but so far, no actual cassette like the mix tape in the film. But, that's all about to change.
Robert Downey, Jr. Took Home the Giant "A" From the 'Avengers' Stark Tower
Robert Downey, Jr. reportedly made over $50 million for the first 'Avengers' movie, so if he wanted a giant "A" in his office (like the one seen on the side of Stark Tower at the end of the film) to celebrate the massive success of the film, he could've very easily just had a replica made. But, he didn't want a replica, he wanted a real thing. Or, at least that's what he joked to Marvel. So, imagine his surprise when he showed up at home and there waiting for him was the 30-foot tall "A".
There Will Never Be a 'Back to the Future' Sequel or Reboot
It's almost surprising at this point that there has not been a 'Back to the Future' reboot or sequel. When you look back at the popular and successful properties of the 80s, there are few that haven't been modernized. Sony is practically falling all over themselves to get a new 'Ghostbusters' in theaters. This year alone saw new 'RoboCop,' 'Muppets,' 'Ninja Turtles,' 'Jump Street' and 'Transformers' movies. But, despite the frequency of these remakes, it doesn't look like you'll ever see a new 'Back to the Future' movie. And, that's a pretty great thing.
Original 'Ghostbusters' Star Thinks Female-Led Reboot is a Bad Idea
Most of us have felt that a 'Ghostbusters' sequel/reboot is a bad idea for a long time. In fact, so many people have thought it's a bad idea that Sony Pictures had a hard time finding anyone to even work on it (Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg turned the project down multiple times). But, when it was announced that Paul Feig would be directing a female-led 'Ghostbusters' movie, we had to at least respect that they were trying something different instead of just another tired sequel. Unfortunately not everyone feels that way, including original Ghostbuster Ernie Hudson.
Robert Downey Jr. Clarifies 'Iron Man 4′ Rumors: No Plans, But Another Marvel Movie in the Works
There's been a lot of 'Iron Man 4' talk over the past few days as Robert Downey, Jr. continues his whirlwind promotional tour for 'The Judge' across a multitude of talk shows. He's confirmed it, issued demands, backpedaled, confirmed it again and now, via an appearance on David Letterman last night, he clarified all the recent rumors and (we think?) issued the definitive word on 'Iron Man 4' and his future at Marvel.
Could Spider-Man Be Joining the 'Avengers' in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Just yesterday, we heard the very sad and strange tale of acrimony that currently exists between Marvel and Fox, the studio that owns the 'X-Men' and 'Fantastic Four' movie rights. It will very likely be a cold day in hell by the time we ever see the likes of Iron Man and Wolverine pair up on the big screen (regardless of what Hugh Jackman says), but is it possible that The Avengers could actually be crossing over with another superhero from another universe? Namely, The Amazing Spider-Man?
Will 'Avengers 3′ Boast a Completely Different Superhero Lineup?
Recently we heard the 'Avengers 3' rumor that the final movie of the current Marvel Cinematic Universe may be split into two films. The word was that was unlikely to happen though, because of expiring contracts for actors like Robert Downey, Jr. and Chris Evans that would be too costly to renew. It looks though that Marvel may have found a clever way around that plan. A completely different superhero lineup for 'Avengers 3'.
Robert Downey, Jr. Agrees to Star in 'Iron Man 4′ (On One Condition…)
First, the good news: Robert Downey, Jr. has agreed to star in 'Iron Man 4' for Marvel! Considering everything he has been saying over the past year or so - essentially that he can't imagine an 'Iron Man 4' ever happening - that's a major step in the right direction and a huge win for Marvel Studios. But...Downey's agreement has come with one rather large condition. That his old friend, and current member of the Hollywood blacklist, Mel Gibson be allowed to direct.
Adam Sandler Signs Deal to Star in Four Original Netflix Movies
Hot off the heels of their partnership with The Weinstein Co. to release their first original feature film ('Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2'), Netflix has announced yet another deal that will bring original movies to their subscription service. The company has just announced a deal with Adam Sandler for the exclusive rights to four upcoming movies that the comedian will star in and produce.
'Tetris' Movie in the Works, Will Be a "Very Big, Epic Sci-Fi" Film
What was a joke just two years ago, is now going to be a reality: the classic strategy video game 'Tetris' is becoming a movie.
'Avengers 3′ to Be Split Into Two Films?
With 'Avengers 2' over seven months away, it seems a little premature to already be talking about 'Avengers 3' rumors, but this one was too big and too crazy to ignore. A recent report claims that Marvel - following in the footsteps of 'The Hobbit' and 'The Hunger Games' - is looking to split 'Avengers 3' into two films that would be released in back-to-back years.

I wonder if I can write a code to check the firmware version of an iPhone connected to USB.
How can I do that in cocoa?
I wanna be more clear about my question.
I want to check the firmware version of an iphone once it is plugged into a computer's USB.
iTunes can do that, whether it is jailbroken or not. My question is not being jailbroken or not. I am talking about all iphones.
What I want basically is to control the iphone firmware version through a code.
Is that very difficult? I am surprised since there is no answer except for a comment.
