Kill 'em with kindness!
At first I found Jamaicans to be taciturn. Perhaps they are just shy, maybe a little wary of tourists. Anyway, I was just persistently kind and in the end most of the hotel staff seemed to thaw a bit. Just don't expect Jamaicans to behave and act like Americans -- they aren't Americans and they have a distinctly different outlook and world view. Be tolerant and and open minded and you should be just fine!

so far since i've gotten home i've called 8 local vzw stores. most of them didn't give me any info. one said nothing right now but Moto is coming out with 10+ android phones this year and some will obviously go to VZW (which we knew). a few mentioned the N1. one mentioned the Moto Calgary and it might be coming around March. he described it as a "step down in all ways" of the Droid.
then, there was 1 place which gave me some hope. when i asked what the next android phone was going to be on vzw, without hesitating he said his HTC rep told him they will be releasing a phone in 2 months, and its definitely different than the N1. i asked him for a name or specs, but he said he wasn't given that information. the htc rep just said in 2 months. so, that was good to hear. now, on to page 2 of the local VZW stores hahaha.

Web developers and browser makers were on course toward building the universal software platform -- until smartphones got in the way.
The company has been working closely with Everything.me on "creating a compelling content experience" for the Firebox browser.
We know that the browser market has room for at least five strong, healthy competitors. Social browser RockMelt is trying to prove that a sixth contender can do well, too. And its close ties to Facebook could help.
week in review This year's wireless show was less about introducing a bevy of new phones and more about future trends like ICS and LTE. Also: Oracle may get just a fraction of what it hoped for in ongoing Oracle v. Google trial.
Poor Mark Zuckerberg has an almost-literal meltdown on-stage at All Things D and it makes us wonder: is it time for a grownup to take over there? Or just time for Zuck to throw his privacy boss under the bus? Also, HP doesn't want to make smartphones with its new WebOS toy, the Dell Streak continues to baffle, and hey! Globular rovers!
Our response to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg being named Time's Person of the Year? Um, actually, that kind of makes sense. Also, Yahoo makes some deep cuts, but the tech community rallies with job offers and free beer. And Gawker's password mess proves once again (as if you needed any proof) that you really, really, REALLY shouldn't poke the bear. We told you so. --Molly

Greetings, Mr. Iwant,I came across RCG by going back to my pink list, a collection of all sorts of oddities. I noticed that RCG's symbol changed and decided to look further. Here are what little I found:RCG's a closed end fund.RCG's book as of 1Q07 was $10.92.The CEO, Mr. Cleveland, recently bought 13888 shares under $10. He actually makes his money through the management company he controls. The management fee is mighty high, something like close to 5%.So, I ask myself, why on earth would he buy the shares when he got only 10, 15% discount, even though in insignificant amount? Maybe one or more investees may perk up soon?You know I am not fond of high fees. I am more curious than interested in the shares.Best, Sam
Mr. Cleveland recently published a book where he recommends investing with "entrenpenurial ceos" that own significant shares of stock in their own companies.My guess is Mr. Cleveland has been buying more shares of RCG so he can look in the mirror and see himself as an entrepenurial CEO. But the main problem with RCG is the 3% management fee. Mr. Cleveland could do much more for his shareholders by cutting his management fee in half.
Greetings, Mr. Iwant and Ms. Catlover.Iwant, great call on UNAM.Thank you for the note re: RCG. Didn't think it attractive but went ahead on the exercise since I own some RAND and thought to broaden my sight in the field. Mr. Cleveland did not have consistent record. Also from the rubbles I found one WXCP.PK. WXCP is the old Wheeling-Pittsburg that spinned off the steel mills a few years back. It now mainly own Handy & Harman. Among other things, H&H makes tubings. WXCP was practically broke and got to make a large acquisition recently with the backing of Steel Partners, its 50.3% owner. I expect some sort of turn around but WXCP is not safe. I'd rather be in Steel Partners' position. The acquisition is puzzling.I am expecting RGFC to pop in a few months. It should have the accounting issues out of the way before long. The sales of Crown Bank in 4Q also should help.Best regards, Sam
Okay, it appeared that RENN, the management company made the purchase. Before that, for many years, it maintained its 8.3% share ownership, even through several years' failure to make SEC reports. The returns were better the past few years, but not spectacular, and were lumpy. It's hard to see its future. Unless I find better discount or some compelling reasons, I'd pass.
Sam, from time to time I run a by-discount sort on CEFs. I saw a lower discount and lower management fee number for them on etfconnect.com I'm trying to limit my middle market investing to subdebt via AINV, but thanks.

2 actors playing multiple parts seamlessly. the play was great - took my 13 year old son and we really enjoyed it. prior to the play my son had a taro card reading (he thought that was 'pretty cool'. and following the play there was a 20 minute 'reading' (more like reenactment) of the Pit and the Pendulum. If you have small children - don't take them to this post-play ... it will likely scare them (but it's definitely worth going to otherwise ... actually, it's incredibly worth going to).

The actors did a great job, tons of fast dialogue. Two people played all the characters credibly. Some trouble with the microphones was distracting to the actors and audience.

Natural Resources, Social Conflict and Poverty Trap
AbstractThe paper analyses a model where the fight for the appropriation of rents from natural resources between two groups leads to multiple equilibria. The possibility to be trapped into the low-income equilibrium, characterized by strong social conflict (civil war) and stagnation of income, increases with the weakness of political institutions, the population growth rate, the amount of rents from natural resources and the rate of depletion of natural resources and decreases with the level of per capita income, the investment rate and the length of life expectancy of individuals. The size of minority has an ambiguous effect, widening the range of income leading to low-income equilibrium, but also raising incentives to reach an agreement, i.e. a social contract, without any social conflict. Empirical evidence appears to support these findings.

Hey I just wanted some info on this beer that I just brewed up. Its an AG I really just put this together. I had the hops and I really didn't think about it just brewed it.
Used 6lbs 2-row, .25lbs 10 crystal and .25lbs 20 crystal malt.
I used willamette hops. 1/2hr boil before putting the hops in the wort. 1hr boil with 1/2oz hops, 1/2hr boil 1/4oz and a 15min rest 1/4oz.
O.G. 1.38 @58F for 3.5gallons IBU 13.39
Sitting at 40F for the last 3 days. Yeast; Safloger W-34/70
What kinda of beer would this be?
It sounds almost like a blonde grainbill/hop schedule. I'm not sure what will happen with a lager yeast, it probably won't taste a lot different than a regular blonde ale.

AutoGuide News Blog
The AutoGuide News Blog is your source for breaking stories from the auto industry. Delivering news immediately, the AutoGuide Blog is constantly updated with the latest information, photos and video from manufacturers, auto shows, the aftermarket and professional racing.
At the 2012 Performance Racing Industry (PRI) show in Orlando, Florida, Mazda took a stock Mazda2 and transformed it into a B-Spec race car in just three days, on the show floor.
Ford officially announced its 2013 Mustang Cobra Jet at the 2011 Performance Racing Industry (PRI) show in Orlando, Florida, ready to roll into NHRA's Stock and Super Stock classes and start dominating. The 2013 Cobra Jet will be limited to just 50 units and orders can be placed at a local Ford dealer where it'll be first come, first serve.
Production of the Cobra Jets won't begin until June of 2012 and Ford anticipates to start delivering vehicles by mid-summer of that year. It has an approximate MSRP of $86,000 with the naturally aspirated option while the supercharged variant will run $93,000. Additional options and pricing won't be announced until the beginning of next year in January.
But what we do know about the race car is that both will be powered by Ford's 5.0L TiVCT powerplant, with the naturally aspirated one featuring a Cobra Jet induction system, CNC ported heads, high lift cams and low-drag accessory drive while the supercharged version sports a 2.9L Whipple supercharger mated to a 5.0L with CNC port-matched manifold and heads and a proprietary 10-rib supercharger drive system for high RPM use without the need of a belt.
Ford also improved the chassis on the 2013 Cobra Jet with lightweight body modifications helping give it better weight distribution and while electric power steering provides better drivability without parasitic horsepower loss. On the inside, a new roll cage was designed to optimize safety and chassis rigidity. Minor tweaks include a new brake pedal ratio for more modulation and stopping power while the rear suspension's geometry has been tweaked to deliver faster and more consistent 60-foot times.
Unfortunately no horsepower figures were announced with the release of the vehicle at PRI.
Ford is also allowing its fans to vote for the color of the 2013 Cobra Jet (classic white, silver or black) at fordracing.com with voting ending on December 31st, 2011.

Every December, racers and gearheads gather at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) show, located in sunny Orlando, Florida.
It's also the perfect opportunity for the automakers and their parts divisions to roll out some serious hardware, in preparation for next year's racing season. In 2010, Chrysler is pulling out all the stops – it's Motor Parts division (yes, that's what MOPAR really stands for), is releasing an all new 426 cubic inch Hemi V8, based on the Generation III series architecture.
This motor sports an aluminum block and heads, comes with a complete oil pan and intake manifold assembly and will retail for $13,675, when production begins later this month. Considering it cranks out a whopping 540-hp and 530 ft-lbs of torque, plus what original factory iron-block 426s go for, that's a considerable bargain.
Other cool stuff at the PRI Mopar display this year, include a new Challenger Drag Pack car, powered by a 500-plus cubic-inch V10. Already approved for NHRA Stock and Super Stock racing, the first of these limited edition drag only specials will roll off the assembly line next year and promise to make things rather interesting, especially as Ford is about to dish up another Cobra Jet Mustang, likely in time for the 2012 season.
Other cool Mopar stuff for 2011 includes cold air intake kits, new W2 aluminum cylinder heads for traditional small block V8s (read 340/360 Wedge engines), Gen III Hemi valvetrain tie bars, aluminum blocks, head stud kits and new Challenger rear strut brace kits. For information on these and other new Mopar products, click on the link below.

Hopes fade for sailor Hany Mustapha missing in the Solent
7:22am Thursday 1st November 2012 in News By Daily Echo Reporter
THE devastated parents of a missing dad who mysteriously disappeared in the Solent leading to a massive search operation said they are bracing themselves for the worst news.
Hany Mustapha blowing out the candles on his 46th birthday cake in the last photograph taken of him, went missing just the day after.
His yacht was found empty with its engines still running just off the Isle of Wight.
Detectives, baffled by the disappearance, say he was last seen at Poole Yacht Club on Saturday at about 10.05am.
A massive air, land and sea search was carried out when his yacht was found beached near Brighstone at 5.15pm.
There was no sign of Mr Mustapha.
His father, Nabil Mustapha, 81, from Kingston-upon-Thames, spoke out about the agony the family has experienced in the last few days.
He said: "The search – people have done everything they could have done.
"They had no more clues. I think it would be very impractical to think that he was alive now, unfortunately.
Even his mum – my wife was clutching at straws until yesterday. We accept that this was the inevitable. His mum is devastated, I can't describe it. He was my only son. I just can't describe how I feel."
They said the night before Mr Mustapha went missing the IT company director was celebrating his birthday at a Chinese restaurant with his wife Liz.
His 19-year-old teenage daughter Nadia had also come from university in Wales to celebrate with him.
His father added: "The night before the whole family gathered for his birthday.
It was an opportunity for all of us to be together. The whole family is very close."
"It is extremely hard for his daughter. They were very close. She would have been devastated if she had not come down."
Mr Mustapha is described as being around 6ft 3in, of mid-European appearance with a stocky build. Anyone with information is asked to call Dorset Police on 101.

Jeezy - SupaFreak
Artist: Jeezy
Featuring: 2 Chainz
Producer: D. Rich
Album: Thug Motivation 103: Hustlerz Ambition
Avg Rating: 2.9 ( 15 total votes )
What type of woman does Young Jeezy prefer? I'll give you a hint: it's most definitely not the kind you can take home to mother. On the latest single/video off his hit senior set, the Southern heavyweight channels a little Rick James, giving fans the lowdown on his affair with a certifiable SupaFreak. With D. Rich's trap-ready synth-brass production bumping in the back, the rapper born Jay Wayne Jenkins rhapsodizes about his latest jump-off's many admirable qualities, from her financial independence ("Favorite girl, guess she got the skills to pay the bills / Last n*gga she was f*ckin' wit was worth a couple mil.") to her appreciation for the G-code ("Every time we got pulled over, never ran her mouth."). Assisting on the guest tip, new Def Jam signee 2 Chainz spits about a freaky female of his own acquaintance—and offers his condolences to her so-called man—in a swagged-out middle verse. Need more Jeezy in your life? You're in luck; the rapper's DJBooth-acclaimed fourth full-length, Thug Motivation 103: Hustlerz Ambition, is available in stores and online as of December 20, 2011.

Electrons in nanostructured materials or in a strong magnetic field are confined into a potential well narrower than their de Broglie wavelength. Such a quantum-confined electron gas offers a fascinating playground for quantum optics and condensed matter physics, in which electron wave functions, energies, transition matrix elements, scattering rates, and many other parameters can be designed and controlled. We study coherent and ultrafast optical phenomena in these artificial materials. We apply the results of our theoretical analysis and numerical modeling to design novel optical semiconductor devices with unique functionalities such as operation in new spectral ranges, generation of ultrafast pulses and entangled photon states, ultra-sensitive photon detection, or ultra-broad modulation bandwidth.

If your roof falling down? Call a roofing company in Austin
August 8th, 2014
Many people believe that roofing?Austin TX?can be expensive, although there are a number of roofing contractors in the city who will be able to provide a service that is good value for money and can ensure the protection of you and your family. If your roof is falling down, it is imperative that you contact a roofing contractor to rectify the problem. Leaving the roof in a bad state of repair could lead to further problems down the line, and could pose a significant safety hazard for members of your household. Here are some of the things you should consider when looking for a roofing contractor?Austin Long Horn Roofing.
1. Don't wait any longer
If your roof has become damaged due to wear and tear or adverse weather, you will need to fix the problem sooner rather than later. Slabs can fall from the roof and cause a serious injury to someone in the vicinity. In addition, missing slabs will fail to insulate your property effectively, which could be a significant problem in the winter months, and could lead to higher energy bills.
2. Obtain a quote
You will need to obtain a full and final quote before you commit to any particular service. You can do this by visiting the website of a roofing contractor in your area, or by calling them directly and speaking to them over the phone. You will need to find out whether the cost of materials will be included in the final bill, and if there are any additional fees or costs, for example if it will cost more to have the repair work done during the evening or at the weekend. You will also need to find out about the different ways you can pay for your bill, or whether you will need to provide the money upfront before the job can take place.
3. Carry out roof repairs in the spring or summer
It's a little known fact that the price of Austin TX roofing repair?can increase during the winter months when demand is at its highest. This could cost you more money in the long run, especially when compared with having a repair job undertaken in the spring or summer months. Therefore it is imperative to plan ahead and make sure your roof has been repaired in time for the winter.

Dynamite Tease Project Involving Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente, Frank Barbiere
TweetDynamite have started teasing projects this week, with the arrival of three images promising a project from Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente, and Frank Barbiere. Each of the teasers – released since Monday – have gradually started building up a phrase, which presumably when completed will form the tagline for whatever the writers have planned.

Kyle Lohse spent parts of his first six seasons in the major leagues with the Minnesota Twins of the American League. Since then he has spent portions of eight seasons with four teams in the National League. This, of course, is not notable in any way. Winning at least one game against every team in baseball? That would be notable, and only possible for a player who has spent enough time facing both circuits.
Lohse has that opportunity Thursday night when he and the Brewers face the Twins. Just 12 pitchers have done it before, a fact noted by Chris Jaffe of The Hardball Times The list features quite a few recognizable names, with Curt Schilling, Randy Johnson and Barry Zito among them as well as less-heralded pitchers Woody Williams or Vicente Padilla. (Wise readers will note there have only been 30 teams since the Rays and Diamondbacks joined in 1997, meaning you have had to pitch pretty recently to make this list.)
This will be Lohse's first start against his former club, a team he was never particularly good with but always useful for -- a comment that could be made about pretty much every starter not named Johan Santana during those years of Twins dominance a decade ago. Yet with an ERA of 4.90 during his years there (notably worse than his 4.04 FIP), Lohse's staying power helped him to win 50 games 2001-06, a figure exceeded only by Santana and Radke.
The move to the NL proved to be a good one. Despite being essentially the same pitcher -- his strikeout rate went up a bit, his walk rate down, yet batters neither found excessive successes nor failures -- Lohse shaved nearly a run off his annual ERA: 4.88 with the Twins and 4.06 since leaving them. Even in 2012, a season he placed seventh in Cy Young Award voting after going 16-3 with a 2.86 ERA, batters struck out a little more than 16 percent of the time and walked a little more than 4. He just seemed to strand them a bit more. He's actually been about the same pitcher in every way in his first season with Milwaukee, but that fickle win-loss record has turned to 1-6 despite a 3.76 ERA.
The Twins aren't bad this year, but at 22-26 they're not particularly good either. What they have been good at is beating the Brewers. Minnesota's going for a four-game sweep after 6-3, 6-5 (in 14 innings) and 4-1 wins. Only three Twins have faced Lohse, and none no more recent than 2011. Minnesota starter P.J. Walters will be starting just his second game this year after compiling a 5.69 ERA in 12 starts last season.
The game is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET at Minnesota. Unfortunately, it is not MLB.tv's free game of the day.

Doesn't that work both ways? When a white man was in charge of the NSA listening to phone calls and reading e-mail, the liberals had a conniption. When DumBama does it, no problem.<quoted text>
Never said Obama wasn't doing it. There's that conniving GOP twist again. What I stated was all of these so called "Constitutionalists" were happy to oblige when Bush raped the Constitution with the Patriot Act. Now when a black man does the same thing...oh the tyranny.
When Bush went into Iraq, the liberal complaint was that we should not be attacking countries that presented no direct threat to the US. Libya? No problem. Syria? No problem. Yugoslavia? No problem.
Republicans should not be holding people in Gitmo without giving them Constitutional rights and a fair and speedy trial. When DumBama does it? No problem.
Yeah, yeah, I know, you're a liberal so the first thing that pops into your mind is race. It's what you people live for. But the truth of the matter is that it's partisanship.
One more: Liberals said that a President that never served time in a war should not be allowed to send troops anywhere. DumBama? No problem.

Live TV on XBOX One - What is and what could be...
I have done a decent review of current articles and documentation out there on the functionality of Xbox One and Live TV integration. One question I think that still needs asking is how is the Xbox One suppose to change the channel on the cable box? I am a idealist for simplicity sake and an engineer so I always like to see things be as efficient as possible. I WANT Xbox One to be my cable box, but could live with a IR or some other communication device so long as it works well and I can use the Kinect voice and camera to change between inputs, etc... However, all I get fromt he MS website is that it works with your cable box... So how? Has this been described somewhere else? Tom?
Expansion Eins
Related to my questions above, this begs questions as to what MS's plans are for the future with Live TV integration into its Living Room solution. I think from a hardware standpoint, there are many ways to go about building better performance. If you look at the XBox One from a design standpoint it actually could be 2/3rds of a complete device.
Also, that port hole on the side that houses a USB (I think thats whats in there) could also be a socket connection point for the other third of the box. So what do I think will be in there? It would depend on the country or TV solution, but I it would be essentially a cable integration port where a USB connection would allow the Xbox One the ability to control the LIve TV feed withou the use of sensors, etc... So why would MS not integrate it into the initial product? That one would be attributed to hardware felxibilty concerns with the many countries that this is being delievered to. Each country then becomes a issue that could be solved with its own piece of designed hardware to integrate into the original XBox One. This hair-brained prediction also goes along with the release early next year of a XBox Mini TV box.
Expansion Zwei
The other part of this is other than a tuner, what does the XBox One cable box really do? Considering the functionality the Xbox One has, whats to say that you can't expand the game to other TV's via the network through these boxes that would be ultimately cheaper than a XBox One. So while Xbox One controls your living room, these other oxes could be used to control your other rooms.
I know nothing except process engineering and general data management practices. What I can tell you is that I would Love what I describe above and would finally solve the "who gets the remote" problem. It would resolve my issues with playing multiplayer on multiple screens in my house. It would not restrict TV manufacturers from creating good cutting edge screen devices, although it may help us all by getting the TV manufacturers out of the software or GUI business. It would not hurt cable companies since most provide a cable card to support 3rd party boxes anyways. It would support multiple cable solutions by allowing differing hardware setups. It would finally allow me to have a single (looking) box in my living room that does everything I need it to.

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning. It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

The Wolverine Trailer: I Can End Your Eternityby Micah J Gordon at . Comments
The new trailer for The Wolverine dives into the plot and the drama of the film, though the action picks up at the end, with a look at Silver Samurai. Take a look:
Hugh Jackman stars once again as Logan in the sixth film of the X-Men franchise. In the new film, Logan travels to Japan to meet with a figure from his past, who offers him the one thing he thought was impossible: mortality.
Hiroyuki Sanada, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, Will Yun Lee, Brian Tee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, and Famke Janssen also star.
The Wolverine is set to premiere July 26, with the next installment, X-Men: Days of Future Past, currently being shot. Check out The Wolverine posters for more.
