The best way to describe what happened between Frontier Marketing International and myself is to cut and paste a letter I wrote to Matt Bacak last month. The letter is enclosed below:
Dear Matt,
I am writing to you in regards to the MMI Workshop that I attended last August 22nd and 23rd, 2008, in Suwanee, Georgia. I want to state to you that basically the massive monthly income web site business from the workshop has not measured up to what I was told it was going to be, and I am requesting a full refund of all related expenses from this course. I will describe now what has transpired from when I was first contacted by Rico Aaron in June 2008 to the present date. (Note: I sent a previous copy of this letter via Certified Mail Receipt on May 11, but as of today it still hasn't arrived at your destination. If it indeed does arrive, that letter has the same content as this one.)
Rico contacted me back in June 2008 describing to me the opportunity of this workshop, that it would allow someone to make massive income after they had gotten started. I asked Rico for more details, specifically how soon can I make any income, and eventually a good, livable income. I explained to him that I am not familiar with internet marketing, basically I am a newbie, that if this project will take much more time and effort to figure out after attending the workshop to even get any bit of business, then I am not interested, that I am not qualified nor ready to take on a project of this nature. I also explained to him of my unemployment and tight financial situation, also making it not a feasible time for me to take on this project. However, he said to me that there is nothing to worry about, that Matt Bacak is the Michael Jordan of internet marketing (Rico's own words), I will be making/earning an income literally as soon as I am leaving the hotel and heading back to the airport. Go ahead and place the entire course costs on your credit cards (which I did and ended up maxing out two of them), and change any travel plans you have for that weekend. I ended up changing other travel plans, costing me an extra few hundred dollars. The bottom line is, Rico overhyped and oversold the MMI workshop to me as a can't-miss event. He basically lied to me, giving me false information. Because of what he told me, I followed his advice and came to the workshop.
While attending the workshop, I was beginning to feel that this project may indeed not be what I was looking for, that it wasn't what I was told it was going to be. I know you did mention that if at anytime during the workshop, that if we did feel at all unhappy with the course, we can get a total refund for the class, no questions asked. I did discuss with you Matt about my dire financial situation, asking you if I am in over my head. You did acknowledge my situation, and stated in class that the best way for me to get started is to use the Direct Horizons article marketing services. When I did return home, I did contact them and had 10 articles written and submitted on the internet. The cost was about $1000. After this was done, my financial situation hit a dead end, and in September 2008 I couldn't pursue this web site money-making project any further. I had to shelve it since I had to concern myself from missing any bill payments, staving off bankruptcy, and basically keeping my financial head above water.
Joe Lavery mentioned to us during the workshop that he would give us his conference call once we returned home to help set up the web site. I called in and set up a date and time for him to call me back. My scheduled time with him did come and go, and he never called. I called back to complain about this, and I did speak with you directly explaining my dissatisfaction, that he did just blow me off without any concern. He did finally call me back on another scheduled time, and my experience with him on the call was not the greatest. He rushed through things, not giving me a chance to understand what he was doing. When I asked him to slow down, he would just say something like, What are you talking about? I just showed you., and the like. Further communication with him through his office has been unprofessional, to say the least. Joe has a bad attitude towards me; he couldn't be bothered with my request for assistance. This particular situation occurred when I tried to set up an appointment to have him describe some points to the Ultimate Traffic Secret.
As stated before, my horrific financial situation that began last September has left me paralyzed to do anything more with the MMI workshop web site for several months. I finally did manage to set aside some funds to start utilizing the Ultimate Traffic Secret in April 2009. I remember during the workshop, as well as while watching the Ultimate Traffic Secret videos, that Joe was hyping up how this method of driving traffic to one's site is really awesome, that no one out there at this time knows about it, we will be stealing other sites' traffic, and the like. Joe did say that the Ultimate Traffic Secret method won't happen overnight, but I certainly was under the impression that this secret traffic driving method would also be a means to start generating decent income with the workshop web site. I spent a few hundred dollars during April, using keywords to extract many URLs and drive traffic to my site. I soon realized that, although traffic was being driven to my site, again no one was signing up, and I was steadily and rapidly losing money. This situation is now the second time that something was overhyped to me where in reality I was not going to have the success that was sold to me.
I am still in a very difficult financial situation, and I am in no position to put the time and effort into the MMI workshop project, for financial and other reasons. Because of the stated reasons above, I am requesting a full refund of all expenses paid into this project, totaling $8000. This includes the cost of the course, the Direct Horizons expenses, the air fare, transportation and hotel expenses, the change of my travel plans for that weekend, the conference call with Joe Lavery, and the Ultimate Traffic Secret costs. You may be wondering why I am requesting this at all, and why it took me so long to write this letter to you? I want to be professional about this, and you have said to your clients to contact you with any concerns, that we are allowed to scrutinize anything you present. If you were in my situation, I'm sure you can see where I am coming from. Please contact me with your decision, preferably within a week of your receipt of this letter. If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your time and assistance.
If you want to or can deal with what I described in my letter, by all means go aheaed. However, hope that others take notice to what I wrote and don't fall into the same trap as I have. Matt has yet to respond to my letter, and I did file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau regarding this matter. The bottom line? Please heed my warning.

I bought a car two years ago and I don't like the colour, can I have my money back.

Also I find the staff at Bacaks company, more than willing to help and any issues, no matter how silly, they are their to support me. The Monday night call he does, always address the questions I have asked. I researched Matt heavily before I paid my money. I am 43, a long time in business and I know someone who is full of BS and some who is not. This guy is the real deal, but YOU have to do the work and follow the system. No one gives you money for doing nothing, I believe in the states its called welfare.

If things were not represented correctly when you spoke to the salesman on the phone, then why did you not bring this to my attention during class. I do take personal responsibility for salesmen that sell a class that I teach.
It's been over 8 months then all of the sudden you send me a letter saying that you are desperate for money and want Frontier to give you this ridiculous amount of money.
The workshop was not even the total that you are asking for.
In this report, you clearly stated that you knew the refund policy.
Tim, if you would have walked up to me during class at anytime and asked, I would have been happy to give you a refund on the spot as the refund policy stated. No questions asked.
During the workshop you had many opportunities to
bring this to my attention. The workshop you attended was one of smallest ones I have taught ever.
Instead you wait and post your comments here - which I feel should have been addressed to me in some other way. Like a phone call to my assistant or an email to my assistant sharing
your concerns and issues.
After extensive research checking through all the emailsthat I can get my hands on between you and Frontier Marketing.
The only thing that I found was an email from Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 12:18 PM. requesting link to the Q&A recording which was quickly emailed back to you.
I didn't find anything that even remotely sounded like the things that you are saying about me and Frontier Marketing and, I didn't come across any other emails from you.
Since you attended class, you have had multiple opportunities to get ongoing help from me for the things that were taught.
There has been 2 refreshers offered to you since the class. I see in your record that you have received multiple communications about those by mail, email and Voice Blast and that you never
attended any of those.
There have been over 32 Q&A calls for you to ask me any question that you have. I religiously have done them every Monday night. I even
send out the recordings just in case you miss it. You knew that because that was the email that you sent in on Tue, Apr 28, 2009.
I only see "1" question that you have asked me.
I did notice the following purchases and the following sign-ups.
* Purchase: Pillow Talk
* Purchase: 30Bdaymailing
* Purchase: MattRetires
* Purchase: MMI Aug08
* Purchase: DarkSideCD
* Signup: Feb09call
If I felt this way about someone or a company I wouldn't have still purchased things from them and signed up for the telecalls that they were offering. No one put a gun to your head and told you to buy anything. You made the choice.
You know, years ago I was going through some really tough times.
The bill collectors calling ever minute of the day, I could barely put food on the table. The point being, I didn't blame anyone for
getting me in the situation that I was in. I realized that I made those decisions that got me to were I was at that moment and needed
to not blame but to learn. Now, I would like to extend a offer to help you. I would be happy to help you over the phone and give you some of my time to help you get the ball rolling again.
You are welcome to contact my assistant. You have her email because I know she responded back to you with the recording link after you asked for it in an email.

Anytime during the workshop - will refund - no questions asked!
AUTHOR: Mbacak - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 01, 2009
As you stated, you mailed a letter on May 11th and
you attend class on August 22nd and 23rd, 2008.
The guarantee was exactly as you stated in this report:
"anytime during the workshop, that if we did feel at all unhappy with the
course, we can get a total refund for the class, no questions asked."
It's way past the the last day of the event. (refund period)
As of May 11th, It's been over 8 months since the workshop. To be exact,
May 11th was 231 days since the refund period was even available.
On a side note:
Rico is no longer working for Froniter Marketing Intl, LLC
and this event is no longer being offered with Joe Lavery
and his company.
Direct Horizon's is a totally different company.
I just spoke with people at Direct Horizon's, from
talking with them, I understand that you started to
focus on other things like a "porn" or "booty shaking"
type site to market. I never suggested to do that
and was not that thrilled to hear that.

Man deported 11 times caught again Mexican man arrested on drug trafficking charges in Arizona UPDATED 10:52 AM EDT Jul 18, 2013 A Mexican man deported 11 times for entering the United State illegally was caught once again, this time on suspicion of drug trafficking. Daniel Jupa-Fino, 21, of Sonora, Mexico, was taken into custody after fighting with the two officers at a truck stop in Eloy, Ariz. Jupa-Fino was one of two men in a car chased by a Pinal County deputy Tuesday afternoon. The car was traveling west and when the deputy tried to pull it over it crossed into the eastbound lanes before stopping suddenly, Phoenix TV station KPHO reported. Deputies said two men fled from the car and were chased into a nearby trailer park, where the passenger, 19-year-old Felipe Gonzalez-Tempura, was captured. Jupa-Fino was found at a nearby gas station and taken into custody after a brief fight, KPHO reported. Deputies told the TV station they found 220 pounds of marijuana worth more than $165,000 in the car, which was seized by authorities along with the drugs. Both men are charged with possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale and transportation of marijuana. |

Judged: 2 1 1 the middle class is destroyed? wow, you'd think that would have been in the papers or on the news... |
Saint Paul, MN |
Judged: 1 1 1 It was, except for Fox News who for years claimed the best economy ever, in spite of massive unemployment, falling wages, elimination of benefits, and closing of thousands of factories. When Obama became president, they immediately changed their tune. Perhaps you heard about it? More than 100% of the growth of the nation in the past 30 years went to a few rich people, those who work, got less and less and a lower standard of living. Perhaps you have relatives who aren't doing as well as before Reagan. Perhaps you have neighbors who can't even pay their mortgage payments and have gone into foreclosure. Perhaps you used to have friends who used to have jobs but don't anymore. Perhaps you have driven past areas that used to be centers of manufacturing which now have sign after sign that says: "For Lease." Perhaps you heard about cities who have lost so much of their tax base that some are even filing for bankruptcy. Take a look at the demographic data how how many people are working. The latest from the labor dept might say unemployment is like 7 something percent, but look further. Look at how many people should be available for work, and how many are actually working. That will put the number near 40%. The GOP is fond of saying that 47% of the people cannot find jobs that pay enough to buy food, shelter and pay taxes. If you make less than that, you don't really have a job. I could go on, but I hope you are getting the point. |

Since shortly after Project Blue Book was ordered closed in 1969, the U.S. government has officially ignored claims of UFO sightings, but an international group of former military officers and government officials says it's time to take the potential national security threat seriously.
There was once a time when the Air Force looked into thousands of sightings, but the military has for years said it sees no need to resume its investigations.
The group, which includes former military officers from seven countries, all say they have seen a UFO or have conducted research into the phenomenon.
However, the Air Force says nothing has happened in the past four decades to justify resuming investigations.
Every year thousands of people say they have seen UFOs in the United States and their claims are usually met with scepticism.

Tensions flared again when protesters were told they had to clear out of Zuccotti Park so workers could clean up. The park is privately owned by Brookfield Properties, a Canadian company, which had planned the cleanup before the protests started. Brookfield Properties had asked for police assistance during the cleanup, but ultimately decide to postpone the operation rather than force a standoff.

High Risk Valve Clinic
TriStar Centennial Heart & Vascular Center's High Risk Valve Clinic in Nashville, Tenn., offers a multi-disciplinary team approach to caring for and treating high-risk heart patients with heart disease.
The High Risk Valve Clinic consists of a structural heart specialist, two interventional cardiologists, a heart failure specialist, a cardiovascular imaging specialist, and two cardiovascular surgeons. They consult together, pooling vast experience and knowledge to develop personalized patient treatment plans.
Our team offers non-operative candidates with critical aortic stenosis several treatment options, including medical therapy, balloon valvuloplasty, and the new transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
Heart valve problems that benefit from surgery include congenital valve disorders, leaky valves that don't close properly (regurgitation), infected valves, and narrowed valves that don't open correctly (stenosis).
Many options exist for the best outcome, including:
- Mitral valve repair and aortic valve repair
- Stentless valves
- Ross procedure
- Minimally invasive valve surgery
- Robotic valve procedures
- Mitral chordal repair
- Repair of congenital valve disorders
- Mechanical heart valve replacement
- Biological heart valve replacement
- Tissue heart valve replacement
Our cardiac surgeons regularly take on challenging cases, such as those that involve the repair or replacement of multiple valves or operations to correct unsuccessful valve surgeries. Many of our patients are considered high-risk, including people who have had several prior heart surgeries, those with pre-existing medical conditions, elderly and overweight individuals, and people who have been turned down for heart surgery at other hospitals.
While we routinely care for high-risk patients, our team welcomes any patient with a heart valve problem that can benefit from surgery.

A bone age study helps doctors estimate the maturity of a child's skeletal system. It's usually done by taking a single X-ray of the left wrist, hand, and fingers. It is a safe and painless procedure that uses a small amount of radiation. The bones on the X-ray image are compared with X-rays images in a standard atlas of bone development, which is based on data from large numbers of other kids of the same gender and age. The bone age is measured in years.
A child's bones, such as those in the fingers and wrist, contain "growing zones" at both ends called growth plates. These plates consist of special cells responsible for the bones' growth in length. Growth plates are easy to spot on an X-ray because they're softer and contain less mineral, making them appear darker on an X-ray image than the rest of the bone.
As kids grow, growth plates change in appearance on the X-ray images and become thinner, eventually disappearing (this is what is called "closed growth plates"). Because they look different at each age, a doctor can assign a bone age based on the appearance of the bones and growth plates. A child's bone age (also called the skeletal age) is assigned by determining which of the standard X-ray images in the atlas most closely match the appearance of the child's bones on the X-ray.
A difference between a child's bone age and his or her chronological age might indicate a growth problem. But such differences don't always mean there's a problem, because perfectly healthy kids can have bone ages that differ from their chronological ages.
The bone age study can help evaluate how fast or slowly a child's skeleton is maturing, which can help doctors diagnose conditions that delay or accelerate physical growth and development. This test is usually ordered by pediatricians or pediatric endocrinologists.
Bone age can be used to predict:
The test is also used to monitor progress and guide treatment of kids with conditions that affect growth. Conditions for which a doctor will usually check and track a child's bone age include:
A bone age X-ray will be done by an X-ray technician in a radiology department within a hospital, a freestanding radiology center, or doctor's office. A bone age X-ray doesn't require special preparation. Your child will be asked to remove all clothing and jewelry from the area that will be on the X-ray because they can interfere with the image.
If you suspect that your daughter is pregnant, it's important to tell the X-ray technician or her doctor. Bone age studies are usually avoided during pregnancy because there's a small chance the radiation may harm the developing baby. But if the X-ray is necessary, precautions can be taken to protect the fetus.
This is a quick procedure. It takes only a few minutes from start to finish, and actual exposure to radiation is often less than a few seconds.
Your child will be asked to enter a special room that will most likely contain a table and a large X-ray machine hanging from the ceiling. Parents are usually able to accompany their child to provide reassurance and support. If you stay in the room while the X-ray is being done, you'll be asked to wear a lead apron to protect certain parts of your body from radiation.
The technician will ask your child to sit on a stool and place his or her left hand on the table with fingers spread. A protective shield will be given to your child as well. The technician will then step behind a wall or into an adjoining room to operate the machine. Your child will be asked to stay still for a couple of seconds while the X-ray is taken. This is important to prevent blurring of the X-ray image.
Your child won't feel anything as the X-ray is taken. The X-ray room may feel cool, due to the air conditioning used to maintain the equipment.
After the X-ray is taken, you and your child will be asked to wait a few minutes while the images are processed. If they're blurred, the X-ray may need to be redone.
The X-ray will be looked at by a radiologist (a doctor who's specially trained in reading and interpreting X-ray images). The radiologist will send a report to your doctor, who will discuss the results with you and explain what they mean.
In general, X-rays are very safe. Although any exposure to radiation poses some risk to the body, the amount used in a bone age study is small and not considered dangerous. It's important to know that radiologists use the minimum amount of radiation required to get the best results.
Developing babies are more sensitive to radiation and are at greater risk for harm, so if your daughter is pregnant, make sure to tell her doctor and the X-ray technician.
You can help your child prepare for a bone age study by explaining the test in simple terms before the procedure. It may help to explain that getting an X-ray is like posing for a picture. You can describe the room and the equipment that will be used and reassure your child that you'll be right there for support. Be sure to explain the importance of keeping still while the X-ray is taken so it won't have to be repeated.
If you have questions about why the bone age study is needed, speak with your doctor. You can also talk to the X-ray technician before the procedure.

Autopsy of an Aspen
By Michelle Nijhuis | December 13, 2011 | 5 Comments
In the rural Rocky Mountains where I live, we disagree about a lot of things — politics, religion, water, Tim Tebow — but we all agree on aspen. We love them, especially when they turn blaze-yellow in the fall, and we'd like them to stick around. So in 2004, when aspen throughout the Rockies started dying wholesale, the public reaction was fierce. What the heck was happening to our trees?
Since 2008, the dieoff has slowed, but so-called sudden aspen decline, or SAD, has hit nearly one-fifth of the aspen stands in the Rockies. It turns out that the aspen decline was driven by drought — namely a prolonged, region-wide dry spell that peaked in the early 2000s, and is thought to be a harbinger of the more frequent and severe droughts expected as the climate changes. In a grim sign of the times, though, it's no longer enough to know why the trees are dying. In order to predict future die-offs, it's important to know how.
So Bill Anderegg, a doctoral student at Stanford and a native of southwestern Colorado, performed something like an autopsy on aspen. Anderegg and his colleagues assumed, from previous studies of pinyon pines, that aspen killed by SAD essentially starved to death. When stressed by drought, the thinking went, the trees closed the pores on their leaves to keep water from escaping, interrupting photosynthesis and, over time, running down their carbohydrate supply. But in a paper published yesterday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Anderegg and his colleagues report that the aspen are dying not of hunger, but of thirst.
When the researchers studied dying aspen in the field in Colorado, and induced drought stress in both potted aspen and full-grown trees, they found that the aspen hung on to plenty of carbohydrates. The problem was that the water-delivery systems in the trees' roots and branches were blocked with air bubbles, like straws trying to pull water from too-shallow pools. (This condition is called cavitation, and researchers who have applied sensitive microphones to drought-stressed trees — don't ask me why — have recorded the pinging sound of air bubbles shooting into the water-carrying xylem tubes.) When trees lose 50 percent of their water-delivery capacity, they start to drop their leaves, no matter the season; the dying aspen in the study had lost 70 to 80 percent. And the more root blockage, the researchers found, the more root death. Aspen are a clonal species, and without healthy roots, they're slow to resprout and recover.
Like most of the casualties of climate change, the aspen are dying of multiple causes. Thirst weakens the trees, but as Forest Service entomologist Jim Worrall points out, insects and fungal infections play a big part too, often finishing the job. Some of these pests appear to be climate-change opportunists, encouraged by hot, dry conditions, vulnerable trees, or both: The aspen bark beetle, for instance, was almost unknown to entomologists before biologists studying SAD started finding them in nearly every diseased stand.
The results of the aspen autopsy will help scientists model the response of forests to future climate change, forecasting how forest types will shift, shrink, expand or simply blink out. Meanwhile, we in the Rockies still have our signature tree. But the view is bittersweet.

Serendipitously, this one arrived in the midst of several days' worth of reading I was doing about plants and how they respond to stress, for a post of my own.

Among the players to miss the second cut - the field is cut to the low 70 scores and ties again after Saturday - was Monday qualifier Brad Adamonis and Ben Crane. Crane shot a 4-under 66 in the first round and a 70 on Friday. However, on Saturday he had seven bogeys, one double bogey and just two birdies.
Ryan Palmer, whose caddie this week is New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton, is tied for 62nd at 1-under par. Scott Stallings, the winner in 2011, is tied for 16th with 10 others, including 2012 winner Ted Potter Jr.
Bubba Watson is tied for 41st at 4-under and Tom Watson, the Greenbrier's Pro Emeritus, is at 1-under par, making the second cut by two strokes.
The tournament concludes today with the final group - Wagner and Walker - teeing off at 2 p.m.
The first group - William McGirt and Jim Herman - tee off at 8:30 a.m.

Gary Woodland likes the Old White TPC, and although he has two missed cuts in four years, the former Washburn University basketball player and University of Kansas golfer appears to be playing the best golf of his career.
Woodland had an eagle on No. 17 and, although his only bogey came on the last hole of the day, shot a 6-under 64 Saturday to move into contention for the title at the fourth annual Greenbrier Classic.
It was early and the leaders weren't set to tee off until after 1 p.m., but Woodland benefited from smooth greens with few bumps and cleat marks.
"It was nice to get off early," said Woodland, who has three top 20 finishes and one withdrawal in his last four tournaments. "The greens were perfect. Fortunately, I hit it well and gave myself some chances."
He followed his eagle with a bogey on the final hole in which he came up short of the green and failed to get up and down.
"It was a tough number, I was in between clubs and I tried to hit one hard and it spun on me," Woodland said. "I hit a bad putt. I'm playing good."
Woodland's 2011 appearance at the Greenbrier Classic resulted in a tie for fourth, four months after his first PGA Tour victory. He had 21 cuts in 25 events that season, with 15 top 25 finishes.
"I missed by a shot then too," said Woodland, speaking of the 2011 Classic. "The golf course suits me well. I'm playing well. Hopefully I'm within striking distance and hopefully I can get a low one tomorrow."

Great Plant Hunt adds a new 'Thinking Walk'
Kew's innovative education project The Great Plant Hunt has created a new Thinking Walk to support the International Year of Forests

Children taking part in a Thinking Walk at Kew Gardens
The Great Plant Hunt was launched in 2009 and resulted in 'treasure chests' being sent to all state schools in the UK. The chests contain resources and a guide for teachers, along with a range of activites for years 1 to 6 that get children out and about and inspired by plants. All the materials are also available on the Great Plant Hunt website.
In 2010, activities for the foundation years and a Biodiversity Thinking walk supporting International Year of Biodiversity were added to the website. This year, a Thinking Walk to support the International Year of Forests has also been created. This activity involves making a 'Forest Finder', a collecting device to enable children to collect fallen items relating to the crown, trunk, base and roots of trees whilst out on a Thinking Walk. The Forest Finders can then be used to create forests back in the classroom.

Anyone know of an app like textplus (textPlus powered by GOGII) for iphone which allows free texting or sms?
Anyone know of an app like textplus (textPlus powered by GOGII) for iphone which allows free texting or sms?
google voice allows free sms and texting. i think.
Heck, i use Hi Yahoo for yahoo chat and Meebo for MSN. I would be happy with texting for free as well, but not sure how hat would work woth other people's phones?
Drew is right - we're launching textPlus soon - but if you'd like a pre-release beta build - send me your phone number and email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
It's pretty close to release - but any feedback, ideas or observations you have will be helpful.
This would be a sweet option... problem is I don't have an issue with texts, my girlfriend is the text crazy one. But she has the EnV3 so it wouldn't help her...
If only there was free sms messaging that allowed you to use your own phone number.
Gang Wars Friend Code: 1C2A4
Google Voice = free text messaging/local-long distance phone calls.
Nothing beats Google Voice.
Your Soul Is Mine!
This program doesn't fully work.
I can send out a message but that person CAN NOT reply back!

My wife looked over my shoulder as I watched some of Shug's videos. Specifically the backyard ones and something from Japan. "You think you would want to go backpacking with him?" she asked
"Well uhm, yeah. But you see the good thing about hammocks is that you can hang a hammock on any two good trees. You don't have to get all bunched up like tent camping." "whew" I love your videos Shug--They've been a great help |

Mars rover seeks perfect suntan spot to survive winter
But it seems by the time the moderator allows the comments to be displayed, other comments may have appeared higher in the list. Bah.
Now granted I'm no NASA scientist, nor am I a robot building genius, so there may well be a reason behind this... but surely if a layer of dust coving the solar cells is such an issue, can a wiperblade/wiperbrush not be employed to give them a quick swish from time to time? Sure, they will use a tiny bit of power, but will they use less than the loss due to the dust? Can't see how they need to be especially heavy and/or complex. Or am I missing something?
Neighbours not Liking Facebook's new campus
Facebook gets awesome with Skype

TBH, I would have been much more impressed with a decent iPhone app instead of the god-awful buggy, unstable, unintuitive POS that is currently available. About the only thing it is good for is synching profile photos to my contact list.
iOS 5 system files finger next-gen iPad, iPhone
What he said ↑
Yes, I'm a fruit lover too. But come on now..
"Apple probably have plans to release an updated version of an iDevice?"
Hardly surprising and/or interesting.
Apple iOS 5 and iCloud examined
Why do people continue to whinge about 'rip off Britain'?
£2.99 extra? Boo hoo.
Show me a country other than Somalia perhaps that DOESN'T charge extrortionate duty and VAT of some description on goods or services from overseas.

Where's my gold and platinum?
Well boss.. we corroded it with acid you see.. for science.. so you can't have it back. All gone now. Ahem. We're off to the pub.
Boffins develop working MALE PILL
Sounds useful to me!
That some women cannot take the pill due to medical issues etc, and that some couples might find this method useful as part of their (non) family planning.
Also, it hasn't been unknown for the odd and thankfully rare bunny boiler to 'forget' to take her pill in order to get pregnant to secure a relationship. So maybe there are some paranoid guys out there that would take it just for that!
WW2 naval dazzle-camo 'could beat Taliban RPGs'
Dazzle camo warships
I might be wrong, but I thought that the reason warships were painted with dazzle patterns was to disrupt the Uboat captains ability to detect it's bearing, by making it difficult to tell apart the bow and stern and their relative angles toward or away from him?
Agreed though, that ground vehicles would likely be too slow, and critically, would be likely following a known bearing, that of the road/track they are running on.
Cobalt-barrel machine guns could fire full auto Hollywood style
You can guarantee...
That if the gunner or his mate doesn't have to carry a spare barrel and/or spares kit now, he'll be given another belt instead ;)
The terabyte iPad is coming
Flash storage FTW
Broadly speaking, I would agree with the author. Yes, flash is more resilient than HDDs, but it would be foolish to duplicate data via your backup system of choice simply becausethe storage might be more resilient. Loss of the physical device is still the most likely total loss scenario I can imagine, although I would happily back up my data to a flash based twin drive RAID array anyday (just in case..)
Steve Wozniak, your time is up
Agree with the commentards
Yeah, not sure what the authors issue is and tbh. Well below the standard of journalism normally reserved for El Reg... that said...
Woz used to be someone interesting to hear about, but that stopped a long time ago...
No more Woz for me, thanks.

If your high school and college-age kids are going to the Carolina Cup this year -- especially to Springdale Race Track's "College Park" area -- you might want to pass along a message: it might take them a few extra minutes to get to their spots.

Two Camden men are behind bars, one charged with attempted murder, in connection with two shooting incidents Tuesday night, including a drive-by shooting in Camden.
Byron Michael Wood was 18 years old in late 2007 when he ordered Markelle Jamar Reid, also 18 at the time, to "ride someone" in order to get back into Camden's Nine Trey Bloods gang. That order ultimately led Reid to shoot and kill 17-year-old Michael Joseph Smith -- the first, and so far only, person to die in a gang-related shooting in Kershaw County -- on Dec. 7, 2007.

An arrest warrant for murder served on Briana Rabon's accused killer states that video surveillance shows the 18-year-old entering Stephen Ross Kelly's car on the night of Feb. 25, just before her death.
Stephen Ross Kelly, 21, charged with kidnapping, sexually assaulting and strangling 18-year-old Briana Nicole Rabon to death will apparently remain in jail until his trial. Monday, Kelly waived his right to a bond hearing. Also, attorney Bob Mobley Cook of Kershaw, confirmed he is representing Kelly in the case.
