40% of Super Bowl XLVI viewers used mobile during game
Watchers of Super Bowl XLVI did so with their mobile devices to hand, according to mobile ad network InMobi, and nearly half used their device specifically in response to TV ads.
Mobile engagement was significant during the latest Super Bowl, reportedly the most-watched television event ever with an estimated 111.3 million viewers.
InMobi's survey of mobile users' activity during and after the game found that nearly half (45%) spent at least half an hour engaged with their mobile device with 30% using it primarily during commercial breaks.
Thirty-nine percent said they used their mobile specifically in response to television ads watched during the game intervals to do one of the following:
- discuss television ads
- discover more information about an advertised product, or
- re-watch a television ad.
An interesting statistic for advertisers is that almost twice as many of InMobi's respondents used their mobile device during the first half of the game compared to the second.
"Mobile is an amazing channel for reaching consumers when they are in a lean-back entertainment-oriented mindset," said Anne Frisbie, Vice President and Managing Director, North America, for InMobi.
"Savvy advertisers will allocate more dollars to mobile advertising, either in conjunction with TV ads or through mobile-only advertising campaigns during similar sporting events and key holiday weekends throughout the year."

DRM Changes In Linux 3.5 Are Huge
Published on 29 May 2012 05:50 PM EDT
Written by

Linux Kernel
7 Comments
This news item is coming a bit belated due to
, but the DRM graphics driver pull went in last week for the
Linux 3.5 kernel
. The open-source kernel graphics driver changes this time around are absolutely huge, complete with three new KMS drivers.
Key features of the main DRM pull in the Linux 3.5 kernel include:
- There's a new KMS driver for the
ASpeed Technologies server GPU chipsets
. This is a simple KMS driver written by David Airlie at Red Hat as the company looks to begin shipping KMS-only graphics drivers.
- Joining the AST KMS driver is a
Matrox G200 series KMS driver
. This too was written by Red Hat.
- The third new KMS driver in Linux 3.5 is for Cirrus. This is actually the most interesting of the three new KMS drivers because it's
a virtual KMS GPU driver
for use with QEMU when emulating the Cirrus hardware. So when using KVM/QEMU now there's finally this Cirrus KMS driver rather than an old DDX driver. All three of these drivers just use xf86-video-modesetting now as the generic DDX driver for X.Org.
- Audio Switcheroo: first there was
VGA switcheroo
for graphics card switching and now there's support within the Intel HDA audio driver for supporting HDMI audio switching and disabling the sound driver when the GPU is off.
- The DRM EDID parser has seen improvements for reduced blanking and better DMT. The core DRM also now handles CRTC and plane properties.
- The Samsung Exynos DRM driver now has 2D core acceleration support, DMA-BUF PRIME support, and HDMI features.
- The Intel DRM driver has greater
Intel Haswell support
as their 2013 Ivy Bridge successor, the initial
Intel Valleyview support
Ivy Bridge graphics on an Atom SoC
(no more PowerVR graphics!), HDMI info-frame fixes, and various clean-ups/fixes.
- The Radeon DRM driver has HDMI audio support improvements, improved GPU lock-up recovery, less memory copying on PCI Express, improved fence handling, and more.
- The Intel GMA500 "Poulsbo" KMS driver now has 1080p support, ACPI fixes, and code-clean ups.
- The Nouveau DRM driver has better NVA3 memory re-clocking, NVIDIA GeForce 600 "Kepler" acceleration code, and a-sync buffer moves on NV84+ hardware. The
GeForce 600 Kepler Nouveau support
still requires external, out-of-tree firmware.
With Linux 3.5 there's also
DMA-BUF PRIME support
and other
DMA-BUF improvements
for this buffer sharing infrastructure.
The Linux 3.5 DRM pull request can be found

The station attracts bed bugs and traps them for easy monitoring and disposal, manufacturer PCM Custom Molding reports.
PCM Custom Molding offers the Clear View Bed Bug Trap for the monitoring and detection of bed bugs.
The advanced non-toxic bait station attracts bed bugs and traps them for easy monitoring and disposal. The Clear View has no moving parts, no power cords, no batteries, and contains no pesticides.
The Clear View is ideal for use in the hospitality industry, the manufacturer reports. It provides discrete and effective monitoring allowing motels, hotels, nursing homes, rehab centers and anywhere there is a bed to be proactively monitored for potential bed bug activity and take corrective action before problems get out of hand. The company has a website geared for PCOs at www.probbcvt.com.
PCM Custom Molding also announced that coming soon is the Clear View Trap for German cockroaches.
The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) is seeking a qualified regulatory affairs professional to direct the day-to-day management and execution of NPMA's federal and state regulatory affairs programs
The company has been selected by the National Park Service to install and maintain effective termite control systems for 14 national historic sites in the Delaware Valley, including Independence Hall.
Research from North Carolina State University shows that some insect pests are thriving in warm, urban environments and developing earlier, limiting the impact of parasitoid wasps that normally help keep those pest populations in check.
When female fruit flies have to decide where to lay their eggs, they take their lead from what they see most others in their group do, new research shows.

B&N Selling Hachette GNs at 54-57% Off
To Take Amazon's Business
Published: 06/04/2014 01:27am
Barnes & Noble is aggressively pricing Hachette books across the board, as has been the case since the beginning of this war, graphic novels are simply one small part of larger moves by the retailers. Amazon has cut discounts and availability on Hachette titles (see "Marvel, Yen Caught in Amazon-Hachette Crossfire"), and stopped taking pre-orders on upcoming Hachette releases (see "Amazon-Marvel Truce"), in a battle over terms. Amazon is asking for improved terms, and Hachette is balking. It looks like the war may go on for a while (see "Amazon Digging in for Long War with Hachette").
If that's the case, consumers (and the occasional retailer shopping for a bargain) may have an opportunity to buy Hachette graphic novel titles at large discounts for an extended period.

Lawyers for dozens of oil, gas and pipeline companies are heading to court to make their case for dismissal of a lawsuit filed by a south Louisiana levee board.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier (BAHR'-byay) issued the ruling Monday, turning back BP's arguments that Patrick Juneau should be removed for a variety of reasons.
BP and its minority partner in the Macondo well, Anadarko Petroleum Corp., have a request pending for the full 15-member court to reconsider the issue.
Two privately held Texas oil companies that were among nearly 90 defendants named in the New Orleans levee board's landmark environmental lawsuit have settled.
Lower oil prices, while good for the broader U.S. economy, are a threat to what has been a surprising and dramatic surge in oil production in the U.S.

Surrey murders: Major manhunt launched after man and woman found dead in Fetcham

Glyptotek is not a word to be found in the Oxford Dictionary. It is in my American Webster of 1909, in my Gothic German Cassell of the same year, in my French Harrap of 1934, and I have no doubt that had I a Danish dictionary, there too it would be found - but in my Oxford English Dictionary, that most desert islandish of books, it is not even in the Supplement.

Christian Garcia travelled to Tokyo to create a gala dinner. All the ingredients came from the region of Tohoku
A gala dinner was held on 19 February 2013 in the presence of the Ambassador of Monaco, Patrick Médecin and the Ambassador of France, Christian Masset. For this dinner, Christian Garcia, Head Chef to H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco and President of the "Chefs des Chefs" club and Bernard Vaussion, Head Chef to the President of the French Republic, created a prestigious menu using ingredients from the region of Tohoku.
Two hundred guests attended this dinner at the Palace Hotel, Tokyo.
Activity has resumed in the province of Fukushima after the clean-up of the land and coasts, and health hazards have been eradicated. However, it is still difficult for producers from this renowned agricultural and oyster-farming area to sell their products to Japanese consumers.
The aim of this initiative was to show the public that it is safe to consume these products.

Making a splash! Helen Hunt, 50, looks amazingly fit as she strips down to wash off after ocean swim
At 50 she is maintaining a fabulous figure.
And Helen Hunt took to showing off her enviably lean and toned body as she stripped down to her underwear at a beach in Malibu, California on Thursday after a dip in the ocean.
The star, who keeps fit with a steady regimen of surfing, used a jug of water to douse herself clean after her salty jaunt as she publicly bathed in the parking lot bordering the sea.

The Mad About You alum was clearly in a good mood as she enjoyed her invigorating start to the morning.

Bulgarian PM to FinMin: Get Football Derby Televised!
Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has ordered Finance Minister Simeon Djankov to secure the live Bulgarian National Television broadcast of the upcoming clash between Sofia archrivals Levski and CSKA.
The 2012/13 season of the Bulgarian A professional football league has not been aired on TV, since football clubs and TV channels have failed to reach a deal for the amount of money needed to grant airing rights.
This means that the Levski - CSKA clash may end up not being broadcast for the first time in many decades.
However, Borisov has told a Council of Ministers sitting that he is determined to "assist" all football clubs willing to get their games broadcast.
The Prime Minister has told Djankov that he should negotiate with the Bulgarian National Television and the football clubs willing to have their games aired, so that the situation could change.
Levski Sofia and CSKA Sofia will face each other in an A league game on October 20.

The weekend press screening of Turkish filmmaker Nuri Bilge Ceylan's Winter Sleep was one of the hottest tickets of the festival -- so hot that, even though I arrived in what should have been plenty of time, I was shut out. Ceylan is a favorite here -- his meditative 2011 drama Once Upon a Time in Anatolia was a co-winner of the Grand Prix that year, and even if his particularly deliberate brand of filmmaking isn't quite to your taste, his pictures always deserve a look, if only because his visual sense is acute and exquisite. But even though Winter Sleep -- a drama, inspired by Chekhov, about an unhappy marriage between a misanthropic writer (Haluk Bilginer) and his much younger, and intensely frustrated, wife (Melisa Sozen) -- has been adored by many critics here, its charms somehow slipped away from me in the course of its three-plus hours. As always with Ceylan, the movie is beautifully filmed, capturing the jagged patchwork beauty of the rural Anatolian landscape in a way that also defines the characters' place in it. And there's always tenderness in Ceylan's filmmaking: He has a great deal of affection for his characters.
But the movie is loquacious to a fault, using many, many words and all too many searching, penetrating looks in the service of the following formula: Characters' faults come crashing to the shore in mighty waves, only to recede, leaving their pure and wondrous humanity behind. It doesn't take long for us to get the drift. Chekhov did it better, and shorter.

Imperial Commander came through a crucial racecourse workout with flying colours as the 2010 Gold Cup hero passed another test on his way to the Betfair Chase.
The 11-year-old, who has been sidelined since being pulled up in the 2011 Gold Cup, worked two miles at Towcester in the hands of his regular race partner Paddy Brennan.
The big race at Haydock on November 24, which Imperial Commander won two years ago, is still very much the plan for the Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained gelding.
"The enthusiasm in Paddy's voice when he phoned me shortly before 8.00am told me everything I needed to know. He was delighted with Imperial Commander's performance," part-owner Ian Robinson said in his blog on www.imperial-horseracing.com
"Imperial worked over two miles with an unraced four-year-old bumper horse (who is very highly regarded), finishing upsides and showing plenty of enthusiasm.
"Overall, Imperial gave him a much better feel than in his final Warwick workout before the 2011 Gold Cup, and was moving as well as he has in the last three years.
"Whilst he had a good blow afterwards, his recovery rate suggests he will arrive at the Betfair Chase ready to do himself justice."
Brennan, too, could not contain his delight. "Very happy with Imperial Commander this morning, his class is still firmly intact. Can't wait for Haydock," tweeted the jockey.
David Bridgwater reports last season's Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up The Giant Bolster to be on target for the Merseyside feature.
He said: "The Betfair Chase is the likely starting point for The Giant Bolster. He has been all right since he came back from his summer break and is in good form. We have got the same campaign mapped out as everybody else. After Haydock, it will be the King George and then the Gold Cup."

This year the weather in Belize was not very good in January. Other years, it's been ok.
I'd still say February is better overall. It's generally warmer, for one thing. It's also busier.

Thanks so much, JeanH! I really appreciate your help!

From rainfall records, February has less rain than January.
Regarding temperature, January is a little bit cooler.

The end of November and parts of December were notorious for days and days of non stop rain in the Riviera Maya this past year. The streets were full of potholes and the temperature was cool. The temperature took some time to warm up and clear up in late January and by early Feb, things were back to normal (28 to 31 cel.) Of course Belize is appro. 5 hours south of tulum so I would wager that they were somewhat in the same weather pattern as we were in PDC. Don't chance it... February is the month you want.

Last year even February was rainy. We were there mid Feb, try the end of the month.

Thanks so much for the replies. We are stuck with my daughter's grad school schedule, so can only visit mid-February at the latest.

I was there last February and the weather was great. Mind you, I was in the Cayo district (interior). Apparently, Belize did have heavier than normal rainfall last year.
My suggestion, if you can, is to do the ATM cave tour.
Enjoy your trip!

I am not sure where you were last Feb xyz99 but the whole of feb and March were distinctively very beautiful and mild at night. You might get a day or two that is off but that is no reason to qualify Feb as rainy...not even close ! We were in PDC, 5 hours north od Belize and the weather along the cost is pretty much the same.

Plenty of attention has been devoted to the status of Jason Bay's next contract. The question of whether the free-agent-to-be will be with the Red Sox beyond the 2009 season looms over his performance this year.
That issue will reverberate throughout this season. Increasingly, Bay's significance in the Sox lineup is apparent.
In the sixth spot in the batting order, he offers an impressive combination of power and patience, someone for whom totals of 30 homers, 100 RBIs or 100 walks would not come as a surprise.
Indeed, in the early stages of this year he is on pace to achieve all three of those round numbers. Particularly after the Sox saw Mark Teixeira turn down their money in favor of Yankee dollars, Bay's role in creating a deep and potent Boston lineup is clear. That notion looms over the issue of whether he will remain in Boston beyond 2009.
But as interesting as the question of his next contract might be, the deal that Bay is currently completing is just as important. Bay is in the final year of a four-year, $18.25 million deal that he signed following the 2005 season.
Given his production over the life of that contract, he has been one of the best bargains in baseball. This year, he is earning $7.5 million, or less than one-third of the amount of money that Manny Ramirez will take in from the Dodgers.
That deal is significant on a couple of levels. First, the value represented by that contract gave the Sox tremendous financial flexibility, both in order to acquire Bay (and swallow the remainder of Ramirez' contract last year) and while building the 2009 club. Secondly, it gives some indication of Bay's thinking when it comes to his next contract.
"I'm very, very glad and grateful that I signed that contract," said Bay. "I have no regrets about it. It was just something that came up and made sense. Just like when people ask me about a contract (with the Red Sox), I say, if it makes sense, it'd be great."
Bay did not maximize his earnings potential with that contract. Not even close. Had he gone year to year, getting hefty raises through the salary arbitration process, it is not inconceivable that he would have earned in the neighborhood of $10 million more over the life of the contract than he actually did.
Yet Bay expresses no remorse about his decision. He understands the nature of compromise in the negotiating process, and the idea that there is give-and-take when a deal is signed. The notion that he could have earned more does not haunt him in the least.
"When I signed that contract, I also knew that I could be leaving X amount of money on the table if I go ahead and average what I'd been doing. I know that," said Bay. "I can't be mad, because that's part of the tradeoff.
"A lot of guys say, 'They offered this. Would you take this?' I just say, 'I took a pre-arbitration deal and have nothing bad to say about it,'" said Bay. "It's easy four years into it to look back and say, 'Dang, I shouldn't have done it. I would've made this much.' But I don't have one regret."
Though he was an emerging star at the time he signed the deal -- Bay won the National League Rookie of the Year award in 2004, then hit .307 with a .403 OBP, 32 homers, 103 RBIs and 21 steals in his exceptional sophomore year -- the outfielder was mindful of his unusual path to the majors.
He had gone undrafted as a college junior, and then was an afterthought when the Expos selected him in the 22nd round in 2000. In that context, the ability to guarantee a big-league future was compelling.
"With two years in the big leagues, it's very easy to get caught up and overwhelmed a little bit, especially with the path that I took," said Bay. "It wasn't the security of the money. It was the security that, more or less, I was going to be in the big leagues for the next four years."
Still, Bay emphasized that the deal needed to be one that worked for him. He and agent Joe Urbon wanted to ensure that his contract was in line with other players whose careers featured similar production at their outset.
At the time, a pair of long-term deals signed by the Brewers provided the basis for comparison. The four-year, $17 million deal signed by Richie Sexson for the 2001-04 seasons and the four-year, $18 million deal under which Geoff Jenkins played for the same period of time guided negotiations.
Ultimately, Bay signed for slightly more than Jenkins. It was a good deal for the Pirates (and now the Red Sox), but ultimately, it was a good deal for Bay as well.
"I think it worked out for both sides," said Bay. "It was fairly cost efficient for the team. I got enough money for my family. I'm perfectly okay with it. I also knew going in that it was a four-year contract, and if I ended up getting overpaid during that contract it was a good contract for me. But if I ended up being underpaid, then hopefully it meant that next time around (when he became a free agent), I was doing good enough that it didn't matter."
Indeed, the fact that Bay is now entering his free agent year speaks to a significant part of that contract negotiation. When he signed that long-term contract, Bay's side insisted that it would not delay his free agency.
The contract covered only the outfielder's seasons of arbitration eligibility. He did not give the Pirates a contract option, nor did he commit to a deal that would prolong his ability to test the waters of the open market through free agency after the 2009 season.
"At the time, I didn't really understand. Take an option? I don't care," said Bay. "But kind of being around now and seeing what goes on with most of the contracts, especially the pre-arbitration deals, to get one of those without an option or sacrificing free agency was like gold.
"I didn't really understand the magnitude of it at the time. But looking back, it was probably the biggest kicker in the deal, the fact that I don't have any (team) options now."
That fact, of course, is the reason why Bay's contract status is of particular interest this year. Seven months from now, if he so chooses, he can hit the recruiting circuit and get wined and dined by any team in baseball.
But he is not focused on that prospect. All things being equal, Bay would like to remain with the Red Sox, and the Sox would like to retain him. Even so, despite his interest in remaining with the Red Sox, the outfielder is not anxious about when contract negotiations with the club -- which were tabled during spring training, but with the understanding that both sides were open to resuming their dialogue -- might resume.
Bay is unaware of any renewal of substantive talks with the Sox. The fact does not bother him.
"It's only been 12 games into the season, so I don't think that we're that far out of spring where it's panic time," said Bay. "Until something comes up, there's nothing to talk about. Honestly, it's the furthest thing from my mind.
"Something will come up, whether it's now, whether it's at the end of the year, hopefully that makes sense for me. Hopefully it's here. If not, such is life."
Having been through the process of negotiating a four-year deal once before, Bay respects the challenges inherent in finding middle ground with a club. He's seen what it means to try to identify relevant contracts as a basis for comparison.
Bay followed with invested interest as he watched all manner of contracts get signed this winter. He saw Teixeira get $180 million over eight years from the Yankees.
He also saw as other talented hitters like Bobby Abreu (1 year, $5 million from the Angels), Pat Burrell (2 years, $16 million from the Rays) and Adam Dunn (2 years, $20 million from the Nationals) got far fewer years and dollars than they expected.
Bay understands how the rapidly changing economic circumstances make it challenging to figure out how on-field performance will translate into dollars.
"My agents and the company put together a big fancy package and all that stuff. I've seen the numbers. But I understand that it's a completely different economic time, and that there are some concessions. That being said, I've played the game for six years," said Bay. "I'm not looking to set any records. I'm basically looking for what's fair. Whether it's here or not remains to be seen. I'm not trying to set a precedent."
Bay has enjoyed playing with the guarantees inherent in a long-term deal, and admitted that he was curious entering this spring to see whether life would be different as he approached a free-agent year.
To this point, he's experienced no difference. Moreover, Bay insists, nothing about his performance during his current contract was a byproduct of the terms of the deal.
In his first three years with a contract, he hit .274 with a .367 OBP, .859 OPS while averaging 29 homers and 98 RBIs a year. This year, with the possibility of free agency looming, he is hitting .255 with a .446 OBP, .999 OPS, three homers and 11 RBIs.
There is no evidence that he is consumed in the least by the uncertainty of his future. On and off the field, the business side of the game has little apparent impact on him.
"Earlier, people said, 'Oh -- contract year: What can we expect?' And I said, 'I'll hit 80 (homers) and drive in 190,'" he chuckled. "It's something I can't control. I'm a big believer, and big fan, of not fretting about things I can't control. It's wasted energy.
"People asked if you were relieved, did you play better (with the security of a long-term deal)? No," said Bay. "Regardless of if I had a contract or not, I'm going out there and doing the same thing, whether if I'm struggling with three years left in my contract or in a contract year, I still feel the same way.
"I still want to go out there, I want to do some extra work. I play the game more for personal pride than I do for anything else. None of that really eased my mind. It was more, we appreciate what you've done, keep it up, and here's a reward. I was grateful for that."

I had a wool/poly peacoat (70% wool, 30 % poly) with some lining and it worked quite well in the same temperature range as yours. Unfortunately I don't know the weight of the wool, but I've sent an email to the brands customer service asking about that, will update here when I know anything more. Unfortunately that one was stolen and the peacoats I can find in local B&M stores are too expensive, too much poly in the wool blend or just too ugly/bulky, so I think the Luxire one will be a lot better.

I've got a white one.
Got a grey and navy in production. I attempted to replicate a Kent Wang collar, and I think it came out reasonably well.
I'll take a photo at some point.

What I do for winter here in Toronto is use my peacoat until it hits around -5 or so, and then my Canada Goose, which I know for some people is the last thing they'd wear. But I have to say it keeps quite toasty, and I'm happy with it.
My brother is thinking of getting one from Luxire though, so I'm looking forward to that.

So, I am now on my second shirt from luxire, the first one was too tight (my fault I provided measurements that were off) the second shirt fits great. However, despite specifying in the comment box to use the same collar as the first shirt, the shirt I received today has a very different collar attached. Not really sure what to do about this? Also I would like to order more shirts now that I have got my measurements down however I don't know how to ensure I get the right collar.

May I ask when you ordered your polo?
My shirt made of the grey pique turned out with measurements which were far off as well as a collar which was not similiar to the Kent Wang polo collar, which I too asked for.
I will return it for a remake, but of course I am very interested to learn about other customer's experiences and if Luxire learned more about the stretch of the pique fabrics.
FedEx delivered the Classic Blue Oxford that I ordered yesterday. My second order, third shirt overall. The measurements are spot on. I also ordered some swatches; I'm going to have to get 3 more OCBDs to wear untucked with jeans (pink, white, gray). I'll also have to pick out some casual tattersalls or similar pattern.
FWIW, I sent in the order on Saturday, October 5 and the shirt was shipped Thursday, October 17.

UCLA basketball looking to stay undefeated against upset-minded Long Beach State
A little more intrigue has been added to the Big West vs. Pac-12 matchup at Pauley Pavilion Sunday.

But after the 49ers knocked off previously undefeated Kansas State 69-60 Friday night, the Big West contender is coming to Westwood with some serious momentum. For the first three games, Long Beach State (2-2) had been hampered by its defense, giving up an average...

Comments about 'Jerry Earl Johnston: Time to listen and learn from our neighbors'

These are great thoughts. But I wonder sometimes if we, as a people, are ready
and willing to follow this admonition.
Let me pose a hypothetical - picture yourself in this situation - what if your neighbors in this case were a gay couple? Would you have the same enthusiasm for getting to know them? Would you listen earestly and honestly to their point of view? Would you diligently search for the good in them? Would you allow them to enrich your life, and would you, in turn, enrich theirs? Would you be eager to share the gospel with this couple?
Food for thought. Do we, as a people, really reach out to EVERYONE? And can we truly consider ourselves disciples if we do not? I think the Saviour would find a way, don't you?

I can only answer yes to all your questions but the truth of thew matter is that I have never been faced with having to consider how I would respond. I can only hope.Read Ether 12:41. If this scripture sounds like you then there would be no problem in sharing the gospel with ALL your neighbors.We are not to pre screen people and decide if the gospel message is for them because of their lifestyle.The gospel IS for everyone.That is the message I with to share here today.Regardless of what you see or feel or sense, just share the truths of the gospel with everyone.Just do it.

Can't help but share the gospel if we're truly living it. What we do is much louder than what we say.

My neighbor next door is LDS. What I have learned from him is that I don't want
to be like him !
That doesn't have anything to do with his religion, only him cause I am LDS also.

If you have to be counseled to get along with other (outside of yout little circle) there are some serious issues. It is unfortunate the LDS culture has developed in this manner but it is what it is.

This is Why We Can't Have a Pet
By Anonymous on November 15, 2012
Featured Member Post
I'm one of those people that couldn't keep a goldfish alive. Seriously, my parents bought us ( my brother and I) goldfish when I was about five years old. There were seven little goldfish, and they lived exactly one week.
Apparently we over fed them.
So my parents patiently explained to us that since the fishies are little, they only need a little food. They went out that day and bought us seven more fish. My brother and I decided to feed them fish food crumbs, one per fish, twice per day. These ones lived only a few days not even making it a full week.
The poor souls died of starvation.
After their deaths, my parents decided that we would never have a house pet. So to the day that I moved out (after I got married), my parents had not had any pets. No dogs, no cats, no hamsters and definitely no fish.
I wish I could write about my favorite pet, but those animals would never have a chance in our home. They would have more luck at a different home!
How are you at keeping a pet alive?

Israeli, US navies complete drill in Mediterranean
Man looks at Israeli Navy boat off Ashdod 370.
(photo credit:Amir Cohen / Reuters)
The Israeli and US navies completed a joint drill last week in the Mediterranean
Sea.The exercise, dubbed Reliant Mermaid, focused on search and rescue
maneuvers and involved helicopter landings on vessels, but also live
fire.The US Navy stressed that the exercise was not associated with any
real world events and was planned long in advance."This was a successful
exercise which strengthened the bonds between the US and Israeli navies and
increased our ability to work together as a team," said Cmdr. David
A.Bretz, commanding officer of the guided-missile destroyer, the USS
Jason Dunham."The Jason Dunham team was proud to be a part of Reliant
Mermaid 2012. We've enjoyed our time in Israel and the valuable experience of
working with our partners in the Israeli navy. It was really great to get to see
the differences between our navy and the US," said Israel Navy Capt. Niv
Bar-Ilan."We learned a lot about how the US Navy operates differently
and how the sailors all have individual jobs onboard. It was great and we are
very appreciative of the Jason Dunham crew's hospitality."In the past,
the Turkish Navy took part in the joint annual maritime safety drills, but has
pulled out of the exercise since diplomatic relations with Israel collapsed
following the Gaza flotilla incident in 2010.
