Well made. I bought 10 and gave to all my friends and family. Very good quality and opens bottles with ease. If you do not own one buy one. Has a hole on the end so you can attach it to a bbq. Every person I bought it for love it and there freinds ask them where they got it. So buy buying 10 I just started a gift giving on them. Anyways buy one and it will lead to you buying more to give to your friends and family plus christmas is right around the corner.

Pops off caps easier than any other bottle opener I've used, either way you get after them. It does leave a dent on the cap, but it doesn't bend it half like many openers do. I haven't had any issues operating it. Obviously over-engineered for the task and should last a lifetime. Probably the only heirloom-quality bottle opener out there. Yeah, that might be a ridiculous thought, but it's also true. Treat it right, and you'll never have to buy another. I'm very pleased with the thing. It's the tool guy's bottle opener.

So... I got it as it looks nice. Guys thing, right? Wrench like bottle opener. A must have in a garage. It does open bottles, it does it well. However, the caps might have tendency to get stuck inside the opener. It is so wide that the cap will fit inside, but if you get a very sturdy, thick steel cap that needs more force than most of them - you will bent it so far that it can lock itself inside the opener. Getting it out is not such big deal, but it is inconvenience, to say at least. Generally, well made. Very heavy. Feels like you could do much more that open a bottle. :)

It's a bottle opener, what can I say. My wife got this for me, and I thought it was pretty neat. What I really like is that it takes the bottle caps off without bending them too much. That makes it easier for my wife to use them in some of her crafts.

I bought this online based on the positive reviews and am really glad i did. Heavy, feels great in your hand and solid Craftsman construction means it will last a long time. The few poor reviews about this item are a joke. Not a screw top opener? He was looking for a substitute for pliers. Damages bottle caps? Really? I've used it on a number of different brands (mainstream domestic and craft) and it works great on them all. A little pricey when full price, pick up a couple when on sale.

iPhone 5S details and delays Video
iPhone 5S details and delays Video Transcript
-The following episode of Apple Byte may contain scenes that some viewers may find disturbing like Brian Tong's face and are intended for a slightly more mature audience. -Oh, it's such a great day and like I told him, "That's not delivery. That's the New York Post [unk] tickles. It makes me warm. -Hey BT. -What's up? -Get a room, right? Or somewhere. -What's up? Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple Byte, the show where a piece of fruit is the #1 topic. Now, lots of news this week. And we start off with the official announcement from the Big A that the WWGC 2013 is happening June the 10th to the 14th in San Francisco at the Moscone Center. Now, last year brought the debut of the MacBook Pro with retina display, but Tim Cook hinted that we won't see any new hardware any time soon. During Apple's recent earning report, he said our teams are hard at work on some amazing new hardware, software, and services we can't wait to introduce this fall and throughout 2014. We've been aching for just something new, but Cook said fall. Not summer. But that time of the season where leaves change colors and fall. So, maybe we get a peek at iOS7 and OS X 10.9 Hello Kitty and that just might be it. You're just gonna have to be patient and, yes, it leaves plenty of time for analysts to make up even better rumors. That's also the same week as E3 2013. So, I have to decide. Will I be playing with the new Xbox and PlayStation with booth babes giving me constant attention or will I be here for you? The Apple Byters for iOS7 and no new hardware. You guys, these are tough personal promise people. Now, we mentioned Apple's recent earnings report and the Cupertino kids were fueled by strong iPhone and iPad sales that were 88% and 151% better than the year before, but Apple reported their first year over year decline in profits in a decade and lower expectations for this quarter with the lack of new hardware. You know, whatever they're holding back, better be good. Now, we did get some other nuggets from the Q&A session. Tim Cook left the door open for the possibility of a larger iPhone saying he believes the iPhone 5 still has the best display in the industry and competitors have made tradeoffs to ship a larger display. You know, ones like a larger viewing area, less reflective display, and a much higher pixel density. Now, cook adds that Apple will not ship a larger display while the tradeoffs exist or really until the next iPhone comes out. And let's be honest here. 3.5 inches was the perfect size to Apple before 4 inches was perfect to apple. And the next will be even more perfecter. But Apple's behind here and fall means there's a huge window of time for Android phones to make some ground. Now, Cook was also asked about mobile payments and NFC functionality has been a rumor feature, but Apple's CEO said I think it's in its infancy. I think it's just getting started just out of the starting block. He's right and mobile payments still have tons of hurdles. But remember there used to be a company that came up with inventive solutions for technology and just put it out there? I think the name of that company was Apple. Yeah. No, I think it was. So, hopefully they can show us something in the fall and that's after Google shows off what they've been working on in May. All right. Let's take a quick break for our app of the week. This one's just a fun one. I know a lot of you love Instagram, but you should try out 2 apps called Instaweather and Istaplace. They're free with ads where they have a 99-cent version and just find where you wanna take a picture. You can then swipe through a variety of different overlays and pick the one you one. Instaweather gives you the weather details and Instaplace allows to choose your location. Take your picture with the information displayed or customize the text and then you can publish it on your different social media platforms. It's quick and simple and 2 cool apps for you, the picture phone lovers, on iOS and android as well. So, that's a useful one, but how about a personal one of my own that I use. You guys have to check out how to get a girl. It's free and it gives you really good lessons like how to be confident. Tell yourself I must succeed. I don't wanna be alone anymore. Or how to create encounters? Step 1: Even if she's not attracted by you, she might be pleased with your charm and have a look at you. Yeah. And trust me, it totally worked for me. -What are you doing? -No, no, that's what the app told me to do. -It's not the right way. -No, trust-- -What the hell? That's not what I meant by a row. -See? Like I said, works like a charm. All right, let's get to some other stories. We showed you rumored iPad 5 cases from tactus.com last week. And now, they've added a picture of the inside of the rear shell of the iPad 5. They think they've build this thing already. Now, they also revealed an image of the alleged rear shell for the rumored lower cost iPhone. A part appears to be plastic and consistent with how other sites have describes the design with the flat back and curved edges. Tactus claims it will launch on October 15th, but we'll see how that holds up. Reuters also reports that the next gen iPHone is potentially facing delays after manufacturers expect to just start production in June. Their Taiwan supply chain source claims that Apple was trying to find a coating material that did not interfere with their fingerprint sensor technology believed to be part of the next gen design and this may be one of the reasons for the delay. Reuters also says a Japanese supplier has told them small-scale production for the lower cost iPhone will begin sometime in May and Reuters adds the lower cost iPhone will use the same 4-inch display as the iPhone 5S, but will lack the fingerprint sensor and have a plastic case. All right guys, let's get to our giveaway winners for a copy of Injustice: Gods Among Us, the sickest game out there right now. Now, we had over 700 submissions, meaning the chance of you winning was pretty much impossible, but congrats to Mr. Smith on Twitter. He gets the PS3 copy with his love for the Flash because he says he's fast and agile and mainly because skinny guys get no love. I have no idea what you're talking about. Now, we had a few Youtubers also show their love for SuperFox, which, duh, is a no brainer, but our Xbox winner goes to Surya Dayani, if I said that correctly, who e-mailed us a lot of pictures of his favorite character, Asian Batman. Surya also likes him because of his detective skill since finding car keys is a hassle. All right guys, that's gonna do it for this week's show. E-mail me at the email@example.com or tweet me at Brian Tong and I'll answer as many as I can. Thanks for watching and we'll catch you guys next time for another bite of the Apple. -I hand it to you, BT. -Yeah. -I like you style. -It's about time, Cooley. -All right baby.

This is not Ben but his girlfriend Jenni. I love the necklace. I returned a necklace that was a Christmas gift he got me and bought this necklace and some garnet earrings instead. Not only was it $150 cheaper, it is all real and much more beautiful. The stone was bigger than I imagined it to be which was definitely a pleasant surprise.

Born on January 19, 1943, in Port Arthur, Texas, Janis Joplin developed a love of music at an early age, but her career didn't take off until she joined the band Big Brother and the Holding Company in 1966. Their 1968 album, Cheap Thrills, was a huge hit. However, friction between Joplin and the band prompted her to part ways with Big Brother soon after. Known for her powerful, blues-inspired vocals, Joplin released her first solo effort, I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!,
"You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely. All you really have that really matters are feelings. That's what music is to me."
"Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got."
"You got to get it while you can."
"You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely."
in 1969. The album received mixed reviews, but her second project, Pearl (1971), released after Joplin's death, was a huge success. The singer died of an accidental overdose on October 4, 1970, at age 27.
Wild Child
Janis Lyn Joplin was born on January 19, 1943, in Port Arthur, Texas. Breaking new ground for women in rock music, Joplin rose to fame in the late 1960s and became known for her powerful, blues-inspired vocals. She grew up in a small Texas town known for its connections to the oil industry with a skyline and dotted with oil tanks and refineries. For years, Joplin struggled to escape from this confining community, and spent even longer to trying to overcome her memories of her difficult years there.
Developing a love for music at an early age, Joplin sang in her church choir as a child and showed some promise as a performer. She was an only child until the age of 6, when her sister, Laura, was born. Four years later, her brother, Michael, arrived. Joplin was a good student and fairly popular until around the age of 14, when some side effects of puberty started to kick in. She got acne and gained some weight.
At Thomas Jefferson High School, Joplin began to rebel. She eschewed the popular girls' fashions of the late 1950s, often choosing to wear men's shirts and tights, or short skirts. Joplin, who liked to stand out from the crowd, became the target of some teasing as well as a popular subject in the school's rumor mill. She was called a "pig" by some, while others said that she was sexually promiscuous.
Joplin eventually developed a group of guy friends who shared her interest in music and the Beat Generation, which rejected the standard norms and emphasized creative expression (Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg were two of the Beat movement's leading figures).
Early Musical Interests
Musically, Janis Joplin and her friends gravitated toward blues and jazz, admiring such artists as Lead Belly. Joplin was also inspired by legendary blues vocalists Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey and Odetta, an early leading figure in the folk music movement. The group frequented local working-class bars in the nearby town of Vinton, Louisiana. By her senior year of high school, Joplin had developed a reputation as a ballsy, tough-talking girl who like to drink and be outrageous.
After graduating from high school, Joplin enrolled at Lamar State College of Technology in the neighboring town of Beaumont, Texas. There, she devoted more time to hanging out and drinking with friends than to her studies.

You couldn't ask for a more beautiful light fixture for the price. I have this over my table in my formal dining room and it looks great. Much better quality than those that I looked at at the big box stores. I would highly recommend this fixture.
I love this light in my dining room. Looks very elegant.
Love the chandelier. Beautiful and reflects great quality of materials and looks. Easily assembled and hung. Arrived in tip top shape. Would highly recommend.
Bought this and it came in just a few days. Item was well packaged, no damages in shipping. It is fairly easy to install for those with basic skills. When assembling, I did note the frame was a tad imperfect and I had to bend some of the components ever so slightly to fit them together well. Besides this, once assembled it looks beatiful. You can use CFL bulbs of course, and it is just a very nice chandelier. color is a dark brown, rustic looking.
This is very nice and nice looking, it was a little hard to put together, you cant use tools for putting the bottom parts together, so it makes it a little hard on the fingers

Lawrenceville, Ga. (PRWEB) February 19, 2014
Building from author Yakob Adhanoms personal experience as a refugee immigrant to the U.S., Unprecedented Life Journey: From Africa to the United States of America (published by AuthorHouse) tracks a fictional characters inner motivation to change his life situation.
That fictional character is an aspiring college student living in Africa. As his rebellious attitude grows, he finds himself submerged in a wild path of destructive behavior.
The only way to remedy his past and create a new future is to use his own moral compass, or GPS, to navigate the tumultuous course of life. Readers will find the lessons of this moral GPS found throughout the book useful to their own lives, providing valuable insights to leading a more productive, fulfilling life.
All things are possible, achievable to them who believe and work choosing never to be silenced overcoming factual impossibilities, Adhanom says. You can never fail too hard, so fast, so far that you cannot diverge when you deviate from purposeful living.

Diplomats: No Iran-UN nuke agency meeting planned
Monday - 2/25/2013, 2:51pm  ET
Associated Press
VIENNA (AP) -- Top Iranian officials coming to Vienna usually hold talks with the head of the U.N. nuclear agency. But diplomats say not this time, in a development that may reflect a deadlock on agency attempts to probe Tehran's atomic work.
Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi is coming to a conference Tuesday that has nothing to do with the International Atomic Energy Agency. Still, he has missed few chances when in Vienna to meet with Yukiya Amano, whose International Atomic Energy Agency is monitoring Iran and trying to investigate suspicions it might have worked on atomic arms.
IAEA officials recently suggested a pause was needed on related talks after they dragged on without results. Iran denies such work or wanting such weapons.
The diplomats demanded anonymity because their information was confidential.

The traditional Thanksgiving Day games pairing Beverly and Salem, Marblehead and Swampscott, and Danvers and Gloucester may not be the same.
And teams that qualify for the first round of "playoffs" just eight weeks into the season might well never have gotten even that far if the teams played out their full schedules.
So there are certainly flaws in the new statewide high school football playoff system as approved earlier this month by the schools of the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association. And the close vote — 161-131 — shows that a lot of coaches and athletic directors have some significant questions about it.
But the idea of including more teams — Swampscott coach Steve Dembowski projects that 55 percent of all schools will now make the playoffs — and the notion of basing all of the qualifiers on existing divisions makes a lot more sense than the current format, in which teams play their slates of conference games, then seemingly bounce up and down come playoff times. It should also make for a more uniform and fair competition. And that should be the bottom line.
Is this the best solution? That remains to be seen.
But as Gloucester head coach Tony Zerilli noted, the new format, in which each league with five teams or more will get two playoff entrants, is at least an attempt at a solution.
The new format also makes serious strides toward protecting the health of young athletes by moving past the absurd prospect of a team having to play three games in 10 days — a season finale on Thanksgiving, a playoff game the following Tuesday and a Super Bowl championship game four days after that. If a college or professional team had to play that kind of bruising schedule, there would be an uproar, and rightly so.
It's important to note that the new system will debut in 2013 and 2014 on a trial basis. And officials would have the option to return to the current or to yet another format should this one pose new problems rather than solve old ones.
Supporters like Masconomet head coach Jim Pugh have heard the arguments from those who say it could hurt traditional Thanksgiving Day matchups. That tradition will survive, he told The Salem News earlier this month.
"Overall, it's the best thing for high school football. It'll make the whole year so much more exciting," he said. "All you have to do is look at Marblehead and Beverly right now; there's a good chance one of those teams could finish 10-1 and be going home for the year. Next season, that won't happen."
Exploring a format that gives more teams — and thereby more student-athletes — the chance to be part of a state tournament is a goal well worth a try, and deserves at least a two-year trial run. Let the new playoff rounds begin.

OutlookRight now, no cure is available for ALS. It results in the death of affected patients. Most people with ALS die within five years of the first symptoms, although a few people have lived as long as 10 years. Most people with ALS die of respiratory failure or infections related to respiratory disability. If you have ALS, you should take the opportunity to express your wishes about medical care, estate planning, and personal issues while you are still able.

I WOULD be remiss if did not take the opportunity to answer Assemblyman Tim Donnelly's Assembly Bill 202, introducing a "School Marshal Plan." Kudos to Mr. Donnelly for taking time out of his busy schedule to address the rampant, violent, senseless acts of mass murder occurring throughout our nation. The massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary of so many innocent angels halted our senses and brought to light the horrendousness of mass murder. Never in American history has our country been inundated with such atrocities on a continuum. Mass murder used to be considered rare; this is no longer true. Assemblyman Donnelly is putting forth a serious plan that may do more harm than good.
I come from a long line of firefighters, policemen and teachers. They are trained professionals. With respect to arming teachers and janitors there is no safe way to give minimal training. Carrying a concealed weapon does not nor should it exempt ongoing firearm training, especially pertaining to high crisis situations as many recent school shootings have borne out.
We have no business arming teachers and janitors. Our teachers have enough in educating our children without tasking them with the added burden of policing their classrooms. Will the taxpayer add hazardous-duty pay for teachers and janitors? In my opinion AB 202 is a panic bill. It should never have reached Assembly bill status without serious research and vetting of every possible consequence.
What concerns me most is Assemblyman Donnelly's suggestion regarding arming school janitors. To this point I have extensive knowledge. My father was killed in a mass shooting on a prominent college campus by a janitor. The killer worked on campus as a janitor for 18 months. Then one day he calmly walked on campus with his loaded .22 rifle and proceeded to shoot nine human beings, killing seven almost instantly and wounding two others. Currently this janitor lives a relatively peaceful live in a mental hospital. And this is not the only mass murder committed by a janitor on a school campus.
I have absolutely nothing against janitors except for the one who took my father's life. My point is we need to move with extreme caution in who we allow to carry a loaded and concealed weapon with our children so close at hand. If passed, a legislative bill allowing the arming of teachers and janitors would be difficult to repeal and could have serious consequences.
So what is the answer? In light of numerous school shootings and other public-place shootings that are no less serious, it seems reasonable to consider, where our schools are concerned, armed and highly trained police offices or specially trained security guards with competent background checks patrolling our schools. We can ill afford to have our children caught in the cross hairs of inadequately trained civilians.
Additionally, in today's world, video equipment should be a standard in classrooms and hallways. We should have metal detectors on every school campus. Most sports arenas and court houses have this security - why not schools to protect our precious children? Children above all deserve our top security.
Why have we not considered alarm devices for teachers and janitors akin to what the elderly wear in case they fall down. These devices are attached to a call center for fire and police. Why not give our teachers this security technology? At the push of a button many lives could be saved. There are myriad safety measures that have not been fully explored.
Finally, there is a complicated component to mass murder, that of mental illness which has largely been ignored. The Internet and other media outlets speak to these facts. Perhaps it would be wise to consider holding accountable a number of responsible entities, agencies that are not being responsible in doling out mindless amounts of psychotropic drugs to young adults with little or no follow-up. Unfortunately this has been borne out many times over with those who commit mass murder.
Pharmaceutical companies and our psychiatric field of doctors et al. must be held accountable on dosage and follow-up where our mentally ill are concerned. Individuals who suffer from mental illness deserve the best care and follow-up possible for their safety and the safety of our communities at large.
Many varied entities throughout our communities and across our nation need to come together to begin to make meaningful inroads in addressing the current tragic events of mass murder that have riveted our nation and taken far too many loved ones, leaving countless victims in the wake. It is imperative that we reach out to our legislators and help them to understand and come up with reasonable legislation that keeps all of us safe - most of all, our precious children.

Movie Info
Based on the personal wartime experiences of journalist Mark Boal (who adapted his experiences with a bomb squad into a fact-based, yet fictional story), director Kathryn Bigelow's Iraq War-set action thriller The Hurt Locker presents the conflict in the Middle East from the perspective of those who witnessed the fighting firsthand -- the soldiers. As an elite Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal team tactfully navigates the streets of present-day Iraq, they face the constant threat of death from

Bigelow's film combines an expert management of tension with a sensitive and journalistic attention to detail: she has one eye on the truth and the other on the multiplex.
One of the best movies of the year, with a star-making performance from Jeremy Renner.
Like every war before it, the U.S. invasion of Iraq has generated its share of movies. But The Hurt Locker is the first of them that can properly be called a masterpiece.
The question isn't how do you live with the buzz of looming death; it's how do you live without it? No answers are offered, or even suggested.
Like her protagonist, Bigelow is both a meticulous technician and a ballsy showoff. And, like him, she has ice water in her veins.
The Hurt Locker is at once an unforgettable war film and a brilliant character study.
If you have a chance to see it, you shouldn't hesitate to do so.
Not only the best film made so far about the war in Iraq, but also one of the best thrillers of the year.
The Hurt Locker transcends the political slop surrounding Iraq and cuts straight to the bone, letting us touch the hard, bloody reality of war without casualties of cliche or naive acts of emotional heroism.
Bigelow, one of the very few women working in the traditionally male-dominated action and war genres, avoids both red wire/yellow wire clich� and political preaching to deliver a film that is as psychologically fascinating as it is taut and exciting.
The Hurt Locker is not a conventional approach to wartime heroics but rather a penetrating and harrowing examination of war's unrelenting damage on the human psyche.
The Hurt Locker is horrifying. It's hopeless. I want to go see it again.
Her new film, The Hurt Locker, is both a structuralist war movie-it could be titled 'Seven Instances of Dismantling an Improvised Explosive Device'-and a totally immersive, off-the-charts high-anxiety experience from beginning to end.
This is an outstanding war film because it's aware that it's a film, not a polemic.
When the picture isn't ramping up your heart rate, it switches gears and becomes an intimate character study in what war does to humankind.
It's in refusing to plant a flag on one side or the other over the Iraq war debacle that Bigelow may just have made the conflict's defining film: words are cheap, but it's action that matters.
I wasn't exactly blown away by it (no pun intended here at all), but it remains an engaging film. There's certainly a great story to be told in here somewhere, it's just not the great film I've been hearing about.
It's not delicate by any means, and it gives an intense look into the lives of the American soldiers in Iraq.
The suspense may just kill you.
Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker is one of the most thrilling action films I've seen in the past few years. It features set piece after pulse-quickening set piece.
The decade's best fictional film about its real war, it's a unique perspective on the workplace high of delivering containment from chaos. Some people kick PowerPoint's ass. Sgt. 1st Class William James saves his by defusing bombs.
Jeremy Renner as the unhinged James is a revelation.
There is something original and distinctive about the film's willingness to admit that for some men (and many moviegoers) war carries an intrinsic dramatic charge.
Equal parts bravado-fueled action and pointed political statement. The best film yet made about the Iraq War, and the best American film about war since Platoon.
One of the few must watches of the year so far, and certainly one of the most intelligent offerings, The Hurt Locker would likely already be boasting a masterpiece label had it been from a high profile director or studio.
The opening scene alone may well be the most insanely gripping and amazingly constructed cinematic moment you'll see all year.

Fuel Economy Calculator - Unavailable on the 9900?
I recently had a Sprint tech reinstall the OS on my Bold 9900 to attempt to solve a camera issue and when I reinstalled my apps from App World, I realized that I was missing my copy of Fuel Economy Calculator. I searched for it in the "uninstalled" items list, but it was not there. I eventually found it in the "other devices" list. When I clicked on it, I was informed that it was unavailable for this device. I immediately sent an e-mail to the developer, Dekerta Software with my receipt including order number. I have yet to receive a response (over 3 weeks now).
Is anyone else using this app on their 9900 or 9930? I have a ton of data saved from using this app for over a year now and hate to loose it! - 11-20-2012, 09:24 AM #2
Same for me ... I'm on a Bold 9900 updated to 7.1 2108. I loved this app ... I hope it'll be back soon
It's still showing as available on App World for my 9900.
Try downloading it directly from here... http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24054239/OTA...Calculator.jad That's Phill with 2 L's ☺ - 11-20-2012, 09:53 AM Thread Author #4
Thanks Phill_UK. It downloaded. Let's see if it works!
- 11-20-2012, 10:58 AM Thread Author #5
That seemed to work just fine. I wonder why App World states that it isn't available for my (and other's) device(s)..
Much appreciated, though! - 11-21-2012, 04:45 PM #8
It's weird ever since I updated to the newest OS version, this APP became unavailable.
If I click on Phill's link, do I have to re-purchase it?
*Update* Ok downloaded it. Hmm I wonder why it became unavailable....I wait for the future...to COME back to BlackBerry!

According to This is my Next, after a judge ruled that Apple's outside council gets to see unreleased Samsung phones, Samsung has fired back demanding to see Apple's presumably upcoming iPhone 5 and iPad 3. Of course, part of the judge's ruling was based on Samsung having shown off or given away pre-release devices to the media and developers, and Apple absolutely does not breathe word one about their products until Steve Jobs or another exec holds them up on stage.
- Samsung says it has to see the next-gen iPhone and iPad because it believes those are the products that will actually be on the market against future Samsung devices, so it has to be prepared for Apple's potential motion for a preliminary injunction. That's kind of a stretch: Apple can't really file for a preliminary injunction based on potential confusion with unannounced, unreleased products, so Apple's lawyers will almost certainly focus on confusion with the company's existing products.
- Samsung says that doesn't matter because Apple tends to discontinue previous products when it launches new ones, and it has to be prepared for what might be in the market when and if Apple actually files its motion. This is also a bit strange, since Apple kept both the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS on the market after launching new models. You can bet Apple will point that out.
Apparently, Apple and Samsung negotiated for a year and couldn't come to an agreement before Apple launched their look-and-feel infringement suit, and there haven't been any talks since then. So chalk this up to Samsung trying to get some leverage. Whether or works or not, it could further delay what's no doubt going to be a long and protracted process.
So... countdown to Samsung outside council intern blurry cam shots?
That's only fair...
Could you explain to me how the company being sued for showing products that bear more than a striking resemblance to existing product (UI and all) has a right to demand to see as yet to be released products from the company is being sued by? Why would they need to? So they can copy those and get it to market first and claim Apple copied them?
The whole lawsuit is nonsense, they can file them to every touchscreen phone maker that uses icons... "look and feel" my ass
Samsung hasn't been found guilty of anything, they're in the right to request this. If Apple is allowed they should be allowed as well. They are counter suing Apple after all.
Apparently they have no honor in Korea. Bunch of copy-cat losers.
And to those that say "only fair" - yea, FAIL. Go back to school...
Just because Jobs offered some anti-Korean bs during his antennagate conference doesn't mean his fans get to be racist...
Anti-Korean isn't racist because Korean isn't a race. :roll:
Puh-leeze...only a fatuous idiot would claim that racism can only apply to one of the three grossest genetic categories. There is well over a thousand years of legal and cultural precedent that racism refers to beliefs or attacks on an ethnic group - and Korean applies there, as does Arab, Latino, or Irish.
Hide yourself and Jobs behind incorrect definitions, but his statements (and hiis followers follow-ups in this thread and elsewhere)) were slurs against a specific ethnic group for no other reason than their ethnicity, and so are by definition racist.
Jimbo decides for the world what race is. :lol:
So, Americans who hate Canadians are racist? Which race?
Jimbo reads Wikipedia? Nice.
I've been reading many of your other posts over the past months. You shouldn't be walking around.
Apple does of course breathe word of it's upcoming products. It involves favourite developers and uses strategic leaks.
So someone accuses you of stealing their stuff, so your response is to say let me see what else you have so i can steal that too? Only in America i guess. Good luck with that one Samsung.
I hate to say it, but this anticompetitive and irresponsible behaviour typifies asian technology companies.
So following apple's example pretty much every car manufacturer should sue Hyundai for stealing their designs...
Samsung doesnt have a chance and they know it. They're trying to delay satisfying the court order until the iPhone 5 release. This is going to be long and stupid; and Samsung IS going to lose.
So many North Americans seem to not understand how large Samsung is. Here an example: Apple revenue in 2010 was $65 billion. Samsung in 2009 was $175 billion. Haven't seen 2010 numbers.
Samsung is a HUGE conglomerate and not a small company that just copies Apple. They have resources rivaling many countries. Get ready for a fight.
Samsung should be allowed to see Apple's upcoming devices if they're ordered to show Apple theirs. Since that Samsung showing their new stuff to Apple gives Apple an advantage over Samsung, it sound only be fair that the playing field is leveled.
But the problem really stems from Apple being really secretive of their new devices, they only show them off when they're finished and ready to be sold. All the other manufacturers show off their up and coming devices at trade shows and whatever, which gives Apple an advantage to one-up them.
Apple likes to dance around and say that they made certain things first when really they copied something that already existed polished it up and made it really elegant looking and had a patent slapped on it. Even Steve Jobs admitted that they're notorious for stealing other people's ideas back in the late 80s.
Yes and no. Does apple make completely original devices? No. However is samsung in the right here? No. Lets take a look at samsungs products and the specific ways that apple is arguing they have been copied. Apple is complaining about a look and feel abuse. So lets see in what way samsung, and not their fellow android competetitors, are hitting too close to home in apple's mind.
Lets look at touchwiz and compare it to iOS. iOS uses a menu system that has a number of rows of apps that swipe right to left with a four icon dock at the bottom that remains the same regardless of what page you are on. What does android normally have? An app tray that swipes up and down with no permanent dock. What about touchwiz? All of a sudden apple's design is back. regardless of if you are in the widget area or in the app tray the samsung phones have a dock at the bottom with four icons, just like apple. then when you enter the app tray itself the icons swipe left to right and right to left in the exact same manor as apple's system and the dock stays no matter what.
Lets look at the physical. http://cdn.slashgear.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/samsunggalaxysreviewsg_39-540x438.jpg this is a photo of the samsung galaxy s, before the carriers changed it to whatever they wanted the phone to look like. Notice that the button layout at the bottom is not like all other android phones. You have a menu button and a back button sure but whats the main button in the center shaped like? A specific home button dead center just like apple does it. How about the bezzle surrounding the device? Very iphone 3gs. I could keep going with other devices. This is a look and feel lawsuit. Apple is arguing that samsung is making their product feel like idevices. Targeting the people that can't buy an iphone but wish they could. I myself almost bought a galaxy phone because they felt like almost the same thing.
As a final point look how quickly samsung can copy apple. The old galaxy tab 10.1 was barely finished when apple released the iPad 2, and in no time samsung had fired up the copy machine at full speed and developed the 10.1 inch tab that was conveniently half a millimeter thinner than apple's new baby. Could you imagine if samsung actually saw the new products before apple even released them yet? No way. This lawsuit is justified and samsung should not be allowed anywhere near an apple prototype.
Yep just a bunch of copy-cat losers in Korea. In fact make that all of Asia! Microsoft Windows is pirated on 95% of pc's in China. In the meantime our economy sputters as they just copy and steal everything. It's time to lay the smackdown on these Asian copy-
cats! Boycotting Samsung!!
I don't know about Samsung but I bet there are a lot of people on here would really love to see the Iphone 5 and Ipad 3 as well LOL
This is easily one of the saddest, most childish, and completely ridiculous cases in business law. Samsung, grow the F up.
Never thought I could disagree with a little blue man. Tobias never was one to rationalize anything, so I understand that he's only capable of seeing one side in this. Once you people understand that Apple is not your savior and they dont care about you any more than any other company and that they just want your money. Maybe then we can all actually have a logical discussion with the topic at hand.
Why is Samsung at fault? It's only fair if Apple gets to see all of Samsungs products before they are released it should go the other way too. Apple started the fight, so I'd say they brought this on themselves.
apple wants a closer look at devices that samsung has been showing off to the press for weeks and that many already have on hand. Samsung wants to see devices that no one even has conformation fully even exist yet. Finished hardware that is being reviewed by the press is not the same as unanounced prototypes. Not even the same ballpark.
A lawyer or group of lawyers is "counsel." A council is group of people convened to make a decision.
LG needs to go after Apple next, since they blatantly copied the Prada.
Samsung I have an idea why don't you step out of the box? That's right no one has since the first iPhone.
Well I guess there went the rumor of the iPad3 having super Amoled display from Samsung
I don't understand why Apple even keeps folks in the dark about new iPhones in the first place. Everything the iphone is supposed to have this year is already in Android devices. It's not like they have some super secret dual core processor, or their screen is revolutionary, or even the OS.
I'm just getting sick of these dumb games Google, Apple, Motorola, Sammy, and the whole lot of them play involving these phones. The iPhone 5, Droid Charge, Thunderbolt, s2...are all essentially the same phone. But each company will act as it's a damn secret missle or something. Now that it's being fought legally just takes it to a new level of retarded. They all need to just grow up.
But all of the devices Apple saw from Samsung were already announced and/or released. Samsung has no proof, other than online blogs and news sites that Apple is even going to make an iPhone 5 or iPad3. The things Apple saw were already released or at least already shown at shows and things. If Apple is making an iPhone5 and/or iPad3, they haven't been announced so Samsung is asking for something that kind of doesn't exist yet and they have no right to see it.

If you go
What: Blue Man Group
When: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday and Oct. 4
Where: Clay Center
Tickets: $48 to $69
Info: www.theclaycenter.org or 304-561-3570
Shane Andries grew up learning percussion from his drummer dad and playing sports before he was bitten by the acting bug in high school and decided to major in theater in college.
What goes around came around four years ago, when Andries auditioned for the Blue Man Group. He needed drumming skills. Check. He needed to be in good shape. Check. And he needed to know how to act. Double check.
"It's the perfect combination," said Andries, who joins the three other blue guys that comprise the current touring production of Blue Man Group, which makes a two-night stop at the Clay Center starting Wednesday.
"I never thought I would drum again," Andries said. So far, his Blue Man adventures have placed him in city shows in New York, Boston and Orlando, Fla., and for four months on a Norwegian Cruise Lines ship, where he met his wife, who was an audience member.
She now joins him on the tour, sometimes working with the company that sells Blue Man merchandise at performances.
"It's a really small, really tight-knit group," Andries said. The four members of the ensemble have to be able to mesh quickly and know their parts when they are placed together in a show, which is a fast-paced combination of music, comedy and multimedia fun.
"The audience is able to see this energy," Andries said. His resume is a bit unusual as Blue Man Group performers go. Most are either actors or musicians primarily and have to learn the other component.
The acting part is an increased challenge because Blue Man doesn't include dialogue.
Andries credits a drama school teacher, Robert Francesconi, with teaching him non-verbal acting skills.

The south of Basse-Terre was a centre of Precolombian civilisation in the Antilles, as is evident from its numerous rock carvings. In 1640, the town was settled by colonists who established tobacco and cotton plantations, before diversifying into sugar cane, and later bananas in the 1940s. It was the backdrop for the earliest slave revolt, led by Jean-le-Blanc in 1656. Today it is a lively commercial centre; the tourist attractions lie out of town.

No, I created the water profile from a text file.
I was thinking to export all 3 profile to excel, calculate (Water Level - Surface Profile 1 + Surface Profile 2) and import the result as profile into C3D. Unfortunately the three profile does not have the same vertice for the caluculation in Excel
Oh, that's easy. You just set up your spreadsheet to calc grades between PVI's and interpolate elevations for any needed vertex.
Your engineer should be able to quickly handle that in Excel if you supply him/her with the data. Then you can put the resultant profile they produce in Excel, into CAD.
Sorry fcernst I do not understand terms like kick out profiles of crank on data.
Neither with xml export or with incremental stationing report I get vertices at the same station for the different profiles which is necessary for calculation in Excel
One profile has 630 and the other 840 PVIs at differnt stations!
Oh ok. That's just a little friendly calculation slang for getting things done here Hi there, what country are you from?
Again, you don't need to have every PVI match at first!
Pick a base control profile for your convention... I'm guessing it would be the water surface profile for your case.
So, you have to interpolate elevations for the Water Surface PVI stationing on the other two surface profiles because they may not have those PVI stations. Then you can compute your equation above as you stated for the resultant profile.
This can all be easily done simultaneously in Excel.
If you're more comfortable working in C3D than Excel, there is still a way to use my suggestion. First you have to make a corridor from your water level profile. Make it flat and narrow, just wide enough to be useful.
Then you can make a surface from the corridor, and proceed to use the volume surfaces method I described. Finish off by making a surface profile of the new water level surface.
The one advantage of doing it inside Civil 3D is that it will be dynamic. If you update surface1 or surface2 or the exisitng water surface, in all cases the new water level surface will update according to the calculations built in.

In Slaughterhouse Five, what is the significance of the name "Billy Pilgrim" and why...
Topic: Slaughterhouse-Five
In Slaughterhouse Five, what is the significance of the name "Billy Pilgrim" and why does Vonnegut put him in Ilium?
1 Answer | add yours
"Billy" is a common name, one of the most common male name in the English language. By naming his protagonist Billy, Vonnegut is identifying him as an everyman, a character with whom readers can identify. Our experience is heightened by believing that he is an "average joe", just like us. Readers can put themselves in his shoes as he journeys.
The surname "Pilgrim" is reference of Billy's role in the novel. He is the time-travelling pilgrim, seeking truth and peace, like so many pilgrims who have come before him. It is a spiritual and intellectual journey he is on throughout the novel, coming to a sad truth of helplessness in the end.
Vonnegut places Billy in Ilium as reference to Troy, the city made almost mythical through Homer's epic poem, the Illiad. The characters in the Illiad, the historical figures that mix-in and interact with the mythical and divine, are larger than life. The adventure is larger than life. So, therefore, is Billy's adventure. By using this allusion, Vonnegut wants us to universalize Billy's experience and see the allegorical meanings associated with the protagonists path. Like so many characters in the Illiad, Billy is at the mercy of forces beyond his control.

Noob questions part deux - minor success!
I would like to thank everyone again for the wealth of info in the original thread. I still have questions though. I think i didn't do a very good job with the factory reset. It took me hours to figure out how to get my stuff back. The instructions that were given were clean and concise, I think my limited experience hindered me a bit. On a happier note, my GPS is back and so is wicked quick usefulness.
1. I was looking at MyBackup Pro as an alternative to saving stuff on my pc. Why do the permissions include doing anything without the owner's knowledge or permission. For example, "add or modify calendar events and send email to guests without owners' knowledge", "edit SMS or MMS", and/or "modify secure system settings" ? Perhaps my ignorance is showing but I thought the point of this app was to copy stuff from point A and put it at point B unaltered and unsnooped. Reading and altering seems a bit intrusive. A lot of apps seem to do this.
2. Does anyone understand why Google maps needs to use my camera and mic without my knowledge? Or "manage the accounts list" and "directly call phone numbers
Allows the app to call phone numbers without your intervention." ?
3. How do I turn off predictive text! Please help, it's driving me crazy! i also can't find how to turn off the vibrate while I'm typing. The Rez's owners manual wasn't very good to begin with, but it was written for GB and when I finally figured it out I stopped reading.
4. Anyone have a good app for AC?
Thanks for all your help. I might have to modify my expectations about keeping my personal info so close to the vest.Last edited by breadbaker2009; 12-02-2012 at 05:16 PM. Reason: additional thoughts
Re: Noob questions part deux - minor success!
1. My backup pro needs to read and write for the backup and restore. it needs to read it to back it up, and it needs to write it during the restore. If you restore the calender entries, you are essentially altering the existing calender with the events you want restored.
2 For geo tagging photos (maps) the rest I am not sure of
3. go under setting, language and input...you should find the settings you need in there. I am a bit rusty on that one so someone correct me if I am wrong
4. There is an AC app in the market, but most people use tapatalk or forum runner. Tapatalk is the favorite though I believeThanked by: - 12-02-2012, 08:16 PM Thread Author #3
Re: Noob questions part deux - minor success!
Now I can type without tactile craziness! thank you. The reading and writing to do the copying makes sense to ensure correctness. I hadn't thought of it like that. I'm not sure how i feel about sending emails and invitations without my knowledge. How did you decide these things are mostly harmless? are there settings I'm missing? Is there an Android for Dummies I should read? I feel behind when I read questions and answers and don't completely understand them. I keep plugging along and occasionally have an aha moment. Tell your wife you're a terrific resource for noobs like me.
Editted portion of my program. When I did the factory reset, I think I saved a bunch of stuff from the phone to the wrong SD card. I saved everything i could click to my pc so I should be able to find it. Right?Last edited by breadbaker2009; 12-02-2012 at 08:19 PM. Reason: I really need to take notes to remember everything I want to ask.
Re: Noob questions part deux - minor success!
There is a primer around here somewhere that tells you what all the permissions are for and what they do. I have never had any app send things out on my behalf without asking. Reputable apps from a reputable source will not do that.
I am not sure what you mean by the last part. Nothing should be gone with the backup. Either it is on the sdcard or the internal memory under reware
Sent from my X-Band Modem... TY Genesis - 12-03-2012, 05:48 PM #5
Re: Noob questions part deux - minor success!
You can "search" from within Google maps and find nearby businesses... you can then call the businesses by touching the phone number displayed on the screen. Google maps can "make" the call without you needing to open the phone dialer and enter the number --> this is known as "allows the app to call phone numbers without your intervention"

LAKEWOOD RANCH — In a long-awaited move, the lender Textron Financial Corp., which took over Legacy Golf Course's $6.7 million debt in August of 2009 to avoid foreclosure, sold the course in late December 2012.
A subsidiary of Och-Ziff Capital Management, a New-York based hedge fund, bought the course for about $3 million.
It financed the purchase with a $3.6 million loan.
Och-Ziff, an alternative asset manager with about $31.9 billion in assets, hired Christovich and Associates of Oviedo to manage the course.
Providence, R.I.-based company Textron Financial has been wanting to shed Legacy from day one, when it took over for Troon Golf after the course cited fewer golfers playing public and member rounds, said Brian Richter, who has managed Legacy for Textron since 2009.
Richter, who is still with Legacy after the management change, said he's seen more activity around the course lately, which gives its new owner flexibility to spend money.
"They (Och-Ziff) will keep Legacy a high-end facility and can put a little extra money into it for improvements," Richter said. "I've seen more excitement around here lately. But (golf) is still a luxury item, and at the higher end of it, and with the economy down, we're still not at a profitable point yet."
Golf legend Arnold Palmer designed Legacy, an 18-hole, 200-acre course that Schroeder-Manatee Ranch built.
It opened in March 1997 and was soon acquired by Arizona-based Troon Golf.
In 2009, public rounds dropped 8.5% from the year before, while member rounds fell 2.5% from 2008.
Troon tried to negotiate with its lender to change the structure of the property's debt, but was unsuccessful.
Textron soon took over.
Och-Ziff has not released specific plans about the property.
Richter shut down speculation that Och-Ziff would flip Legacy in a few years and turn a profit on it.
"They (Och-Ziff) are not in the business of flipping," Richter said.
An Och-Ziff Capital Management spokesperson declined to comment for this story.

Your body needs calcium so that you can use your muscles. Calcium also keeps your bones and teeth strong and your heart healthy. Hypercalcemia means you have too much calcium in your blood. Certain kinds of cancers, problems with some glands, too much vitamin D, and being on bed rest for a long time can cause your blood calcium level to get too high.
When you were in the hospital, you were given fluids through an IV and drugs to help lower the calcium level in your blood. If you have cancer, you may have had treatment for that also. If your hypercalcemia is caused by a gland problem, you may have had surgery to remove the gland.
You may need to drink a lot of liquids. Ask your doctor how much. To be sure you get enough to drink:
Do not cut back on how much salt you eat.
Your doctor may ask you to limit foods with a lot of calcium, or to not eat them at all for a while.
Do not use antacids that have a lot of calcium in them. Look for antacids that have magnesium. Ask your doctor or nurse which ones are okay. Ask your doctor what medicines and herbs are safe to take.
Your doctor will want you to come in for a follow-up appointment. You will probably also need to get blood tests after you go home.
Try to stay active when you get home. Your doctor will tell you how much activity and exercise are okay.
You may need to take medicines to help keep your calcium level from getting too high again. Take these the way your doctor tells you to. Call your doctor if you have any side effects.
Call your doctor if you have any of these symptoms:
