Two firefighters dead and a flawed system laid bare
The deaths of Brian Murray and Mark O'Shaughnessy left Bray in shock and Wicklow County Council running for cover
Firefighters Mark O'Shaugnessy (left) and Brian Murray at the scene where they died in a fire at a disused building in Bray, Co Wicklow, in September 2007.
It can't have been the easiest of tasks going to firefighter Mark O'Shaughnessy's station locker to clear out his belongings days after his death.
On September 26th, 2007, O'Shaughnessy and Brian Murray, a colleague in the Bray, Co Wicklow, fire service, entered a burning building to check that no one was inside as the blaze took hold. Instead of saving the lives of others, though, it was they who perished when the roof collapsed, engulfing them in debris and smoke and flames.
Murray (46) left behind a wife and 15 children; O'Shaughnessy was single but with a long-term partner and although just 25, he had 2½ years fire service experience behind him.
The three who went to check his locker were O'Shaughnessy's brother Eamon; Hazel O'Brien, his partner, and Keith Gordon, his best friend.
A few days before the fire, Eamon saw Mark at home, sitting at the kitchen table, writing something, but he had paid little attention. Now he was going to gather his dead brother's belongings.
Because the key to O'Shaughnessy's locker was on his body, or with the Garda after the blaze, a firefighter colleague at the station had to break it open. Inside were the clothes out of which he had changed before going to the fire and on top of them was a note, the handwritten one O'Shaughnessy had been jotting at his kitchen table a few days before.
"It was a list of his concerns, of what he thought . . . It was literally in his own hand, saying 'these are the problems'," Hazel said in an interview with The Irish Times.
The note referred to problems with the station roster, to a "lack of men" – firefighters expected to fight blazes and, sometimes, rescue people from burning buildings at not inconsiderable risk to themselves.
It continued, in aspirational terms: "We shall always be a minimum of 2 crews."
Another line noted: "TRAFFIC – more and more we can't get through the traffic quick enough in the appliance – How can we be expected to arrive at the STN in 13 min."
Another part of the note referred to the minimum number of firefighters needed to constitute a proper – ie fully manned – crew. "What is the minimum?" the handwritten note queried.
Long-running campaign
O'Shaughnessy's note was essentially an aide memoire to himself. It was written on foot of a colleague's request to all Bray firefighters to write down what they felt was wrong with the service, part of a long-running campaign with station management and with the ultimate overseer of the service, Wicklow County Council.
O'Shaughnessy dealt with issues he and colleagues felt they had been grappling with for years. It was their view that the service was poorly managed and that they, the firefighters, were inadequately trained and equipped for what was being asked of them.
Those in authority to whom they conveyed their concerns had not, they felt, addressed them adequately; it fact, they felt they were not really listened to at all. Now two firefighters were dead.
On June 20th last, Wicklow county manager Eddie Sheehy stood outside Dublin's Criminal Courts of Justice building near the Phoenix Park. A full six years after the tragedy and after eight days of a trial for criminal responsibility, the council finally acknowledged much of what the firefighters had been saying – it was indeed guilty of multiple failures under health and safety at work legislation.
Suddenly, long before proceedings were expected to end and as expert witnesses for the prosecution were about to be called, the council changed its plea from not guilty to guilty.
It now admitted that it indeed failed to provide firefighters with proper training, adequate back-up, adequate control and communication systems during emergencies; clear rules of engagement for fighting a blaze and adequate systems for dealing with emergencies; also that it had failed to review risks on a regular basis to make sure, insofar as was possible, that it was looking after the wellbeing of its fire fighters.
Despite the admission of guilt, Sheehy made a statement outside court in which he asserted: "The deaths [of O'Shaughnessy and Murray] . . . were not as a consequence of the breaches of the Act of 2005 . . . Wicklow County Council again extends its deepest sympathy to the families of the deceased men, two very dedicated and brave firefighters."
A statement issued simultaneously on his behalf by a public relations company asserted further that an amendment to one of the charges "acknowledges that the deaths of Sub-Officer Brian Murray and Firefighter Mark O'Shaughnessy were not as a consequence of the breaches of the Act of 2005".
Listening to Sheehy's comments, the families of the dead firefighters heard, again, what they regard as hollow platitudes of sympathy from a council employer that had repeatedly failed to live up to its responsibilities.
Others sources close to the multiple investigations into what happened were also surprised at Sheehy's behaviour.
"It was the wrong tone," said one senior source. "What did he achieve? He upset the family."
Six-year saga
The six-year saga that led to yesterday's sentencing of Wicklow County Council to a fine of €350,000 plus costs of some €96,000 began at Adelaide Terrace off the Lower Dargle Road in Bray. It is a town and hinterland of some 32,000 people in north Wicklow whose many empty retail outlets speak of the effects of the recession.
Before September 2007, when the building was destroyed by the fire in which Murray and O'Shaughnessy died, the single-storey corner site at Adelaide Villas and Park Court had been home to several businesses, including at one stage, Haughton's, a paint company.
By the time of the blaze, however, it was semi-derelict and unoccupied – save for the old car tyres, discarded fridges, bits of bedding, paper and household waste that had been dumped inside.
One of the previous occupants had installed some rather unorthodox insulation. Beneath the corrugated iron roof and in the rafters that held it up, old wooden pallets had been inserted and stuffed with newspaper – presumably in a bid to achieve greater winter warmth for those working there.
The dumping and related vandalism concerned the owner who in September 2007 asked her nephew, Garreth Nolan, to have a welder, Aiden O'Neill, seal shut a large sliding metal door to the side of the disused factory in the hope of stopping unauthorised access.
Nolan and O'Neill went to the factory at about 10am on September 26th. To power their equipment, they cadged access to electricity from a nearby house and set about their work, sealing the large metal door first from the inside, then the outside.
Sparks everywhere
One of the residents, Bernadette Cash, was driving by and was struck by what was going on. "There was sparks everywhere," she later told investigators into what happened. "I had to slow down driving because of the sparks."
The investigators concluded that the fire which was about to ignite came from the same sparks.
"The cause of the fire was most probably due to the ignition source being the production of a spark or sparks from unprotected welding activities and falling among adjacent combustible materials that had been dumped within the yard," concluded a June 2009 report by Dr Peter Mansi, then manager of the fire investigation group of the London Fire Brigade.
Mansi was asked to investigate the fire by the Health and Safety Authority (HSA), which ran a parallel and to some extent overlapping investigation with the Garda. Their inquiries led to unprecedented Garda raids on Wicklow County Council offices and, extraordinarily, the formal arrest and questioning under caution of senior members of the local authority's administrative staff, including county manager Eddie Sheehy, and senior assistant chief fire officers Joanne O'Connor and Tadgh O'Shea, and former chief fire officer Jim Dunphy.

Amid internal turmoil Yahoo unveiled its answer to big data-driven audience targeting this morning. The firm's new Genome offering combines the huge inventory capacity of the inventory it's gathered through partners AOL and MSN with Yahoo data and an added layer of third-party data from Yahoo-owned Interclick.
The product, to be made available in July, is intended to satisfy "a big unmet need for targeting and greater insights," said Rich Riley, Yahoo EVP Americas.
Yahoo introduced Genome at a splashy event in Soho, New York at the Internet Week headquarters, which was kicked off with a talk by Billy Beane, general manager of Major League Baseball's Oakland A's. Beane's story of applying new data and statistics to increase efficiencies in choosing players was featured in the book and film "Moneyball."
Though Beane didn't draw direct comparisons between baseball and the online ad business, insights provided in his speech are appropriate analogies. In baseball, he said, "You can measure every single event and the value of every event."
The hype for the Genome initiative was overshadowed by news of the departure of Yahoo's CEO Scott Thompson, just a few months after he was hired. Thompson finally succumbed to pressure from an activist shareholder who demanded he step down after revealing Thompson had stated in his executive bio that he had obtained a computer science degree when he actually hadn't. Ross Levinsohn, former Yahoo EVP of the Americas, has been named interim CEO.
Genome follows in the footsteps of audience networks that incorporate several data sets to target online ads. The magnitude of the inventory available in Genome should differentiate it from smaller data-centric audience targeting networks.
Yahoo said the system will combine its registration, search, and behavioral data with information from 25 data sources, along with advertiser data, to perform predictive modeling for ad targeting and optimization. The platform will be used to target ad formats including display, mobile, and video.
While so-called big data is all the rage, it appears many advertisers have yet to apply the data they have at their disposal in a meaningful, systematic way.
"It's really difficult for us to use all the interesting data in order to make it actionable," said Michele Morelli, SVP display, lead generation and digital marketing for Citibank. Morelli spoke on a panel during the Yahoo event.
She also suggested that the systems like Genome might not fulfill the ultimate needs of companies that advertise across several forms of media, rather than just online. An online solution is not necessarily appealing to Citibank, Morelli said, adding that her company needs a "marketing solution."

Despite Brisk Sales, Apple Has Flat Sales
Apple reported its sales rose 18 percent in the most recent quarter. But the gains failed to match expectations, adding to investor concern that the company may not be able to sustain its strong growth.

NPR's business news begins with a bite out of Apple.
It's still the largest tech company in the world - let's make no mistake about that. But Apple reported yesterday that its profits were flat - despite brisk sales of iPhones and iPads. In after-hours trading, Apple's stock plunged, reflecting fears that interest in Apple products may start waning as consumers seek more affordable options.
Here's NPR's Laura Sydell.
LAURA SYDELL, BYLINE: It's not that consumers didn't buy a lot of iPhones - 11 million more than last year. It also sold tons of iPads. But analysts were expecting more after such exceptional growth in recent years. Apple now faces competition from lower-cost products that comes in different shapes and sizes.
Speaking during a conference call, Apple CEO Tim Cook defended the size of the iPhone 5, which is smaller than some popular models from the competition.
TIM COOK CEO, APPLE: It also provides a larger screen size for iPhone customers without sacrificing the one-handed ease of use that our customers love. So we put a lot of thinking into screen size and believe we picked the right one.
SYDELL: Apple also saw a drop in Mac sales. Still, some analysts were not writing Apple off.
MIKE MCGUIRE: I don't know that I'm ready to call the end of the empire at this point.
SYDELL: Mike McGuire, an analyst at Gartner, says Apple also released a lot of product upgrades before the holiday.
MCGUIRE: They're growing, having to invest in that growth.
SYDELL: During yesterday's conference call, Apple's CEO, Cook, also made it clear that the company has new products in the pipeline, adding fire to rumors of an Apple TV set, or a cheaper iPhone. And that could be just what Wall Street needs to see.

It's not allowable for trade/sale because it's considered to be "items not allowable for sale/trade on CAG", due to its ability to load games onto the drive without the need to keep the game once it's loaded on there. Potential piracy, in other words.
It's a tool and up to the person on how to use it, though we'd rather not take the chance with it.
Some of the rules on CAG are so outrageously ridiculous.

The Eight of Pentacles card reversed suggests that sex sells, but the quality, not the quantity, of your sensual self should be your consistent measure for improving earthly pleasures. Don't let it be just a way to keep score or merely something to cross off the to-do list -- otherwise, you might become bored with the same old same old. Try not to be absorbed by the minutiae of every detail. Find something in which the process itself gives you pleasure, rather than only in its tangible end result. Having your eye on the prize can keep you focused, but a preoccupation with perfectionism might adversely affect the support and security of your domestic situation, or slow the progress in what could otherwise become a labor of love.

Mario Pinball is a very bad game Pac-Man collection is a nice addition!
But I won't buy any VC game until they merge Wii U and 3DS virtual consoles.
Mario Pinball is a very bad game Pac-Man collection is a nice addition!
But I won't buy any VC game until they merge Wii U and 3DS virtual consoles.
This is how a game company have to treat its users! Thank you Renegade Kid!
I'm looking forward for this free update, and for your next game too!
If this means that I make a single purchase and then I can play it on both 3DS or Wii U, then I'm in.
Cross buy, please!
A fan made game and now fan made music.
What's next? A fan artbook?
Come one Capcom, revive your mascot. Let Inti Creates make Megaman 11!
Will the Pokémon be kept online even if I stop paying? Then I don't care paying the annual fee every year a new Pokémon game is released.
5$ or 5€ it's not a bad price (but it isn't a good price neither). But since I will be only using it once to transfer from previous gen to new gen, I don't want to pay a year fee if no new generation is released.
@Raylax Cart savegames were stored on SRAM, that it's something completely different from a ROM. A ROM is a Read Only Memory, so you can't store anything there, you can only read from there.
Savestates, on the other hand, were not obviously on the real hardware. So are stored depending on the emulator.
Anyway... It's very easy to extract the SRAM from your VC games and use them in other emulators. Nintendo is just a bit lazy to create an app that transfers the SRAM from Wii VC to Wii U VC.
This could be my first Dragon Quest game! I love how the Toriyama's style is finally shown as it should be!
Sega made a complete Professor Layton ripoff with Rhythm Thief... So, what's going on here, Sega?
Mercenaries 3D should have been a download game from the first day. It's full of bugs, but it's still a very good game to play from time to time.
I guess they have fixed some of the bugs this game has.
Will the retail users get the update too?
Some games like Animal Crossing may not be able to be transfered. The Animal Crossing savegame stores the MAC address of the Wii that created it. If you transfer it to another Wii (using homebrew methods), the online functions won't work on the new Wii.
I hope they can fix this!
NES Open Tournament Golf for 4€ is a very good price (is it a typo?).
Donkey Kong Jr. for 5€ is too expensive.
My less favourite is obviously Kirby's Pinball Land. I'm a pinball videogame fanatical, but Kirby's one has simply bad physics and no choices for beating bosses (just drop the ball and let's start again the level).
The best one is Power Paintbrush by far. An incredible beautiful and addictive game. It's hard, but it's fun to play and it's very long too!
I still have to buy and try Tilt 'n' tumble, I hope Nintendo releases it for VC using the 3DS motion sensor.
Rhythm Thief is a poor game IMHO.
If you want to revive (I didn't know they were dead) please make a better game. Rhythm games must be very polished and Rhythm Thief is not very well balanced, some minigames played great, others didn't seem to had been tested: they were unplayable even for music games players.
I was very disappointed with it. A Professor Layton rip-off (and completely linear) with a story that looks promising at first and then it's killed by a silly ending, with a lot of frustrating minigames. Although it had some tributes to Samba de amigo and Space Channel 5 (killed by touchscreen controls).
If you want to revive music games, I hope you realize that motion controls don't work with them.
I completed it some weeks ago!
I have to admit that the first stages are very boring. But then the game gets better at every stage!
It's one of these overlooked GB gems. It can offer up to 10 hours of puzzles. Very recommended!
I'll try to unlock the last treasures that I feel able to get in Kid Icarus Uprising.
I'll finish Mole Mania too.
I wish Nintendo added Super Game Boy support to the VC GB emulator. Kirby's Block Ball (among others like Kirby's Dream Land 2 or Donkey Kong 94) looked a lot better.
Animal Crossing will probably be the only one that I'll buy in its digital version, even if I have to pay the same price as the boxed one.
I wasn't not going to buy the 3DS version (I feel that I spent too much time on the the DS version), but this changes everything. Having it installed will make it easier to switch between games or to play short sessions without having to swap gamecards.
If they fix the same price they make sure that there won't be any competition between digital and boxed games.
Personally, I don't like paying the same for a game without its box and manual. It should be at least 5€ cheaper.
But, from the company point of view, I think it's a good strategy, and should make consumers happy because that means that boxed games won't disappear (for now). They are just giving an alternative.
The original GBC and GBA had a generic character with your name and he/she even didn't talk. I don't see any difference between having a generic character and your own Mii, specially if you can dress him/her as you want.
So, yes. This is an excuse.
He is a bit arrogant, but I have to admit that he is right.
Wii Shop is a huge fail, in all aspects.
And selling less than 6000 units in Wii Shop shouldn't be considered shovelware as some users mentioned above.
Nintendo didn't help the developers to sell more in Wii Shop (slow and confusing navigation, demos that came late and with limitations, no offers, etc.), it isn't necessarily developers' fault to sell less than 6000 units.
And then we have that chimney simulator that sold more than 6000. Oh... That's the real shovelware.
@JamieO This is the official japanese boxart for Super Mario World:
Will we be able to merge Wii and 3DS accounts? I'm not going to pay again for games that I already bought.
Well... I could pay again if it was something like 1 or 2€. But 5€ for a NES game is too expensive.
@Cipher: I don't agree. Having a demo installed (or being able to download it at anytime without limits) can be a reason to buy a game in a future. I could I try it today twice and don't feel like buying it. But who knows... Maybe in a future I play it again and change my mind.
Wii demo limitations had a reason to be there: reducing bandwitdh in Nintendo servers (or at least we must believe that, because it also sounds silly).
What's the point of limiting the number of times you can play a demo? It's already a demo, so it's already limited.
I doubt they are talking about downloading the complete game with that limitation. But if that's what they were talking about, then it means the same lazyness as Wii demos: they are not going to modify any game to take out features (AFAIK they only took out savegame features in most Wii demos).
I know that Iwata don't make these decisions But he's the responsible on where his company will go. And he should see that they are not doing the things right with both Wii and 3DS shops.
What's going on with Nintendo?
Can't they hire someone to redesign their online platform?
Iwata obviously doesn't know anything about online, they need someone that thinks differently. Come on. Limiting the number of times a demo can be played? That's even worse than Wii's demos!
Seriously, I'm starting to believe that Wii U will be another fail in online terms. They promised a good online platform for Wii, then they promised the same for 3DS, and both failed.
Sorry if I'm sounding like a troll, but it's hard to believe that Iwata is not joking with this announcement.
I don't understand why a second stick is so needed.
Nintendo DS had a great touch screen that worked perfectly as a second stick. Metroid Prime Hunters was not a very good game IMHO, but it had an incredible control thanks to the touch screen.
Nintendo 3DS has a touch screen and even the gyroscopes.
Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker had awful controls due to the lack of a second stick. But I don't see any problem using the touch screen to move the camera.
This second stick addon is very horrible. It seems poorly designed and transforms your 3DS into a monster. If it's going to be used in all games from now on, then a redesign is needed.
After playing Let's Tap or Michael Jackson: The experience, I can say that they are doing it right by removing the waggle that just don't work with these games.
The motion controller revolution that Wii created seems to disappear. Nintendo said they changed the way of playing and now they are forgetting about what made Wii different.
I wouldn't pay more than 10€ for it.
Sounds great, and it can improve experience. But it's not an innovation and it's not necessary.
That domain has been enabled for some months. I remember entering it on summer and it redirected me to nintendo.com.
I hope TLS is released anyway!
EDIT: It seems that now laststory.es now redirects to Nintendo Europe!

Watch It TODAY

Latest On Into the Wild
it was alright. had alot of flaws with the unneeded scenes as well as the voice over of Chris's sister, Carine (Jena Malone)
i just watched this movie and it taught me a lot of lessons. I also liked Kristen Stewarts part =]
I give this movie 4 stars! I would give it 1000 stars if I could. Into the Wild was a adventureous and feel good film. The movie couldn't of been anymore better! Emile Hisrich is a terrific actor and this movie has a great plot and you'll wanna see it over & over again. Into the Wild has kinda that forest gump feature to it and is worth watching. Trust me, you'll absolutley love this movie......
A tremendous movie.
Just watched the movie...loved it. Man out of his element. Just goes to show we all have our place and meaning. We are all searching and wondering and have been hurt by people in our lives, and we all deal with it in our own way. But in the end...no matter what....we are all human. The love that is deep within always comes to light in the end. My heart goes out to the family...the not

Batman: The Animated Series: From Animation to Action Figures
DC Collectibles has returned from Toy Fair, where their new line of action figures based on Batman: The Animated Series was a smashing success! While the figures won't be in stores until November, the Collectibles crew provided us with an in-depth look at the figures and what you can expect from them. (In short, plenty of articulation and accessories!)
Batman's Feature Length Phantasm
Ask a Batman fan of a certain age what their favorite Batman movie is and there's a good chance their answer is Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. However, move down the age spectrum a bit and ask a younger Batman fan about the film and you may find that they haven't even heard of it. While it's not unusual for iterations of a long-beloved character like Batman to resonate most strongly with the generation they first appeared, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm seems to be a particularly unique case.

Who's that stopping by the DC office? Why, it's none other than Paul Dini, and he's just in time for Batman: An Animated Celebration! He's here to discuss the new Batman: The Animated Series action figures, and he's far from our only guest. Hart of Dixie's Scott Porter shows off his awesome mobile mancave, Ivan Reis and Joe Prado discuss this week's can't-miss issue of Justice League, and we look at what happens when a Kryptonian gets her hands on a red power ring (let's just say it ain't good).

Press ReleaseControlled Burns at Gulf State Park Planned for May 25-26 and June 8-9May 17, 2005 The Alabama State Parks Division of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, in cooperation with the Alabama Forestry Commission, is planning prescribed burns on May 25-26 and The fuel load within the park has been reduced significantly by a series of burns this past winter.

Pushing Senator Bill Nelson to Vote For DADT Repeal
May 28, 2010
This week has been a very exciting week for DADT repeal here in the Sunshine State. Floridians successfully secured Senator Nelson's support, whose vote on the Senate Armed Services Committee was crucial in order to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell this week. Dan McLaughlin, a Nelson spokesman, confirmed the Senator's position this past Monday. HRC volunteers were working around the clock over the last several months from the Panhandle down to the Keys.

May 28, 2010
Yesterday morning a friend still on active duty called me to ask what I thought about today's votes. "We got it, man," I responded. He didn't believe me. Frankly, I don't quite believe it myself. But here we are, and for some reason cynicism can't overcome this moment.

May 28, 2010
Dear Dave, This is in memory of an anniversary – the anniversary of October 27th, 1943, when I first heard you singing in North Africa. That song brings memories of the happiest times I've ever known. Memories of a GI show troop – curtains made from barrage balloons – spotlights made from cocoa cans – rehearsals that ran late into the evenings – and a handsome boy with a wonderful tenor voice. Opening night at a theatre in Canastel – perhaps a bit too much muscatel, and someone who understood. Exciting days playing in the beautiful and stately Municipal Opera House in Oran – a misunderstanding – an understanding in the wings just before opening chorus.

May 27, 2010
Moments ago the House of Representatives voted to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," paving the road to the end of the 17 year old law. This historic action follows a vote for repeal in the Senate Armed Services Committee and is a tremendous step toward finally ending the ban on openly lesbian and gay service members. It was the first vote ever in the U.S. House of Representatives to repeal the ban on open service. Said HRC President Joe Solmonese: "Lawmakers today stood on the right side of history. This is a historic step to strengthen our armed forces and to restore honor and integrity to those who serve our country so selflessly."

May 27, 2010
Moments ago we received word that the Senate Armed Services Committee voted 16-12 to repeal the failed "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" law. This historic action is the first time Congress has ever taken a vote to repeal the ban on openly lesbian and gay service members in its nearly 17 year history. Said HRC President Joe Solmonese: "The importance of this vote cannot be overstated – this is the beginning of the end of a shameful ban on open service by lesbian and gay troops that has weakened our national security."

Reviews for The Last Outlaws
An Excerpt from The Last Outlaws
The Old West was coming to an end. Two legendary outlaws refused to go with it. As leaders of the Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid executed the most daring bank and train robberies of their day. For several years at the end of the 1890s, the two friends, along with a revolving band of thieves, eluded law enforcement while stealing from the rich bankers and Eastern railroad corporations who exploited Western land…until they rode headlong into the twentieth century. In The Last Outlaws, Thom Hatch brings these memorable characters to life like never before. From their early holdup attempts to that fateful day in Bolivia, Hatch draws on a wealth of fresh research to go beyond the myth and provide a compelling new look at these legends of the Wild West.

May I digress from the garden for a post...?
Friday is our 10th wedding anniversary. I could go on and on about how much has happened in 10 years and how things have changed but stayed the same and love grows and kids kick your ass, but lets get on to the important stuff. Like what are we getting each other for our anniversary. It's a biggie, after all.
Well, the powers that be, lame as they are, decided that the 10th anniversary gift should be tin. Tin, really? I mean, what am I supposed to get him? A can of soup? OK, moving on. The modern tradition for 10 years is aluminum...wait...C'MON!!!! I mean, who are these idiots? Tin and aluminum? Who were they- Alcoa stockholders?
Well, screw that. John and I are declaring a new tradition for 10 year anniversaries. Behold, the iPhone anniversary. That's right, we bought each other iPhones. And we will celebrate our anniversary by sitting close and staring adoringly into our iPhones while we download all the greatest applications. And send cutesy text messages to each other. Because THAT my friends is love.

I finally pulled the trigger and picked up a Lumia 920. It's been taunting me to get since the 900 was out.
Coming from a Samsung Galaxy S3 (which I now use on a different line), I love how the phone looks and animates itself through transitions... but people were not kidding about the lack of apps on the device. I'm not app heavy, but I'm glad that I still have my s3 on the side I guess. - 01-31-2013, 11:08 AM #2
welcome to WP8. as far as apps go, i think of it as android 2009 when it had lack of apps also. it will get better.
Welcome to WPCentral.
Perhaps you could check out the App thread. There might be some folks who would be able to help you find some apps you are looking for.

- Emerging Wall Street consensus is that the MLP sector may have seen its best days, and the MLP analyst team at Merrill Lynch cautions in a new report that volatility may lurk in the sector.
- While Merrill believes the triple threat of increasing interest rates, volatile commodity pricing and overall MLP equity supply may combine to produce a choppy year, the firm upgrades three top names to buy to add to four top picks for 2014.
- The top four: Energy Transfer Partners (ETP), whose distributable cash flow as of Sept. 30 totaled $2.3B vs. $1.3B a year earlier; MarkWest Energy (MWE), who will be able to process 3.7B cf/day in the Marcellus shale within a few years; Plains All American (PAA), a top name to buy at most Wall Street firms; and Western Refining Logistics (WNRL), which has not yet paid a distribution.
- Upgraded to Buy: Global Partners (GLP), Martin Midstream Partners (MMLP), Tesoro Logistics (TLLP).
- ETFs: AMJ, AMLP, MLPG, MLPI, MLPN, MLPY, MLPL, MLPW, MLPS, YMLP, MLPA, EMLP, AMU, IMLP, MLPJ, ATMP, YMLI.

- Barron's is bullish on refiners HollyFrontier (HFC -0.2%) and Tesoro (TSO -0.3%), each of which has operations near the heart of the shale oil boom that should benefit from shifting oil price dynamics.
- HFC will continue to see cost benefits from its proximity to plentiful shale oil, which can be even cheaper than WTI, and is investing to improve the efficiency of its refineries which should give it an edge over competitors as delivery bottlenecks from booming oilfields are resolved with new pipelines.
- Like HFC, TSO has refineries with geographic advantages, which Credit Suisse says are among the best-positioned in U.S. refining; also, TSO's valuation may not reflect the benefits that will result as it moves pipeline, storage and other assets into its Tesoro Logistics (TLLP) MLP.

- Tesoro Logistics (TLLP; TSO) says it will repair and replace a 200-ft. section of the North Dakota pipeline that leaked ~20K barrels of Bakken oil onto a farm, and is developing a plan to reroute the pipeline.
- TLLP is declining to give any details of the plan, which will be shared with federal authorities; it is not commenting on the cause of the leak, and has not provided a date for the possible restart of the line.

- Corrosion may have led to the leak of 20K barrels of oil from a Tesoro Logistics (TLLP, TSO) pipeline in North Dakota, according to an initial investigation.
- The 20-year-old pipeline was carrying crude oil from the Bakken shale to the Stampede rail facility outside Columbus, N.D.; the spill was largely contained and clean-up efforts were estimated at ~$4M.
- The incident is raising questions about North Dakota's ability to handle its energy boom after it was not reported to the public for 12 days; the governor, who says he wasn't even told about the spill until two days ago, says the state is now investigating its procedures for reporting spills.

Thursday, Oct 102013, 3:45 PM
- A Tesoro Logistics (TLLP -1.5%) crude pipeline spilled ~20K barrels of oil in a rural field in North Dakota, in what appears to be the largest spill in the Bakken shale formation to date.
- The spill has been contained and has caused no injuries or known effects on water or wildlife, TLLP says; the company estimates clean-up will cost ~$4M but doesn't know how long it will take to make repairs.

'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Recap: The Housewives Move Forward

Things ended awkwardly for Kim and Cynthia, so they're having lunch. I love Cynthia's hair short and sleek like that. They handle the situation like adults, move forward, and learn a little more about each other. Kim, do you think you and NeNe will ever speak again? No. No friendship contracts are signed, but they agree to go on a double date some time.
NeNe is in LA! Where she belongs, maybe. She's going with her assistant Andre to pursue some acting, which is apparently working out. But what about Sheree's acting career? What happened to that? Where is Sheree's character on
Kroy meets up with Kim's father, Joe, to ask for Kim's hand in marriage. That is so exciting! Even though we knew it was coming. But Joe has a couple questions. He wants to make sure it's a lifetime commitment, come sickness, health, or terrible country music singles. But it's a go! Who wouldn't be happy to have Kroy as a son-in-law?
Kandi is Skyping with designer, Mathieu, to get some direction for her Bedroom Kandi line of adult toys. The first invention is the "clitstick," and the next is a puff that charges in a little compact. It looks like makeup! You can stimulate yourself on the go and no one would know, except that you're putting your makeup on your crotch.
At the Bailey Agency, a long-haired Cynthia is working on a Word document for her model search. Ooh, a model search! Exciting. There are a few problems, though, like the maximum occupancy for one. Oh, and Peter. He is sort of a problem. But Cynthia feels confident.
Speaking of confidence, Phaedra is forging ahead with her funeral directing. She's meeting with a family to make arrangements this time, as part of her final training. A "real, grieving family." Phaedra is doing a good job, I think. I would love to have Phaedra coordinate every step of my life, and death. Then, the couple cracks up--it was all a ruse to test Phaedra! She passed the test, though.
NeNe and Andre get dinner after their meeting with the creators of
. NeNe thinks she got the part, and I'm pretty sure everyone gets the part on
. But that is neither here nor there. Steve Harvey was there, and he and his wife love NeNe Leakes! He gives NeNe some advice on living in LA--don't come with hate. NeNe decides Brentt would be great in LA, and then Keisha Knight Pulliam showed up. This is THE place for D-Listers!
Yet another outrageous party: a celebration of funeral director, Willie A. Watkins. There's "a lot of pomp and circumstance and over-the-topness and church ladies," Kandi notes. Kim thought it was the circus. NeNe thought it was a funeral. Perfect for Phaedra. How do you behave at this event, though? I wouldn't have any idea, and neither does Kim. "I'm not sure why I'm clapping," she says, then, "I'm confused about everything."
The event is long and boring and what Cynthia deems, "a waste of an outfit and a wig." Kim is audibly bored, then gets up and leaves with Sheree. She has a big announcement to share with Sheree: she's engaged, of course! I respect Kroy for not proposing on TV. That ring looks like a championship ring! 10 carats! And Sheree will be one of the bridesmaids. Can't wait for the wedding special!
Phaedra announces her partnership with Willie and at last, it's over. Next week is the season finale! Why do I feel like hardly anything happened this season?

text: If there was one thing that people across the country could agree on right now, it would be the ridiculously high cost of today's college education. Most parents assume that student loans are a fact of life, and most students assume that student loan debt is a necessary and even positive thing. If you want to get a good job, it's commonly thought that going to a good college (chosen in part by U.S. News and World Report rankings) and getting a good name on your diploma simply costs money and there's nothing you can do about it.

Art is subjective, but we think we can objectively say that Massachusetts has the best art in the entire solar system. After all, it's home to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, one of the world's most impressive collections of fine art; Mass MoCA, the country's most fertile site for large scale new art; and the "small but big" Worcester Art and Fitchburg Art Museums. Plus, there's a whole museum of bad art, one that's free if your name is Isabella, and the country's oldest continuously operating art colony. Wake up your soul at the Jacob's Pillow dance festival, catch yourself clapping inappropriately loud for the world famous Boston Symphony Orchestra or banging your head (in a good way) in the birthplace of hardcore punk. And don't leave without experiencing some drama (also in a good way) at one of our amazing theaters, from the Berkshire theater scene and Worcester's majestic Hanover Theatre to Boston's storied theater district.
