Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office locates escaped inmate
Updated On: Jun 29 2013 01:10:25 PM CDT
The Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office says escaped inmate Jakahari Williams, 18, has been located and taken into custody.
The Sheriff's Office says it followed up on dozens of tips from the public that led to his arrest Saturday morning in the 300 block of Alma Street.
Williams has been charged with simple escape, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Williams was initially arrested Wednesday on charges of illegal carrying of a weapon, domestic abuse, battery and possession of illegal narcotics.
He was being held at the Terrebonne Parish Criminal Justice Complex, but on Friday morning, Williams had a seizure and was taken to Chabert Hospital for treatment, the Sheriff's Office says.
Deputies say a correctional officer assigned to Williams allowed him to use the restroom unrestrained, and Williams escaped wearing a medical gown and boxer shorts.
An internal investigation is being conducted into the correctional officer's actions at Chabert Hospital, and the status of the officer's employment will be determined Monday, the Sheriff's Office says.

Features |Vermont View: Keep your cool, and do the mathBy Oliver Goodenough | October 05,2008I got an e-mail today from a relative of mine with a message titled "Another bailout plan." Maybe you got it too it's been flying around the Internet enough to catch a bunch of us.
Even before I opened my copy, I had heard about it over the radio. An irate listener called in to a public radio talk show and described it on the air.
Here's the plan: The e-mail reports that the cost of the AIG "bailout" totaled $425,000 for each adult U.S. citizen. It suggests, with compelling logic, that we just give that amount to each of us that ought to solve any financial problem. As well it might.
The difficulty, however, is that the math is simply wrong by a factor of a thousand times. The e-mail states: "So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billion that equals $425,000.00."
Do the calculation (I must admit I needed a calculator to make sure). The division actually equals $425. While that is not a trivial sum, and one that would sure help come heating season, the logic of the new plan gets a bit less compelling with the correct figures inserted. When I pointed out the problem to the relative who sent this to me, (who, by the way, has a graduate level education) the reply came back: "Details. I never checked the math."
There is the problem in a nutshell. At the front end of it all, a bunch of supposedly smart people bought a bad story about the safety of essentially stupid mortgage investments, and put the whole financial system at risk. The profits were so good, the people at the top just didn't do the math. And the guardians of the system we call them regulators were made stupid by the willful self-delusion that markets do better without guardians. But markets wonderful as they may often be can get us all in trouble if there aren't some smart rules keeping people away from toxic, short-term decision making. The guardians didn't do the math, either.
So here we are in the mess. Luckily (sort of), there is a flawed but probably workable plan on the table to patch up the financial system so that it doesn't go down the tubes wholesale, making a really bad situation really a lot worse. But when we most need our smarts, to evaluate the proposal with some clarity and make it work better, the communal rage about the unfairness of it all makes us credulous about clearly impossible alternatives where the math is off by a factor of 1,000.
Dumb and getting dumber. We won't fix a problem caused by stupidity by being even more stupid. We need to sit on our anger hard though that is and see our way through to a decent plan to protect ourselves as a country against even worse fallout to come. Unsatisfying though the conclusions may be, we need to keep our cool and do the math.
But that isn't the end of the story. We have a chance in November to register our protests a chance that we should use not against people trying to fix the mess in good faith but against the mindset that got us here. There is a lot of math on election night. We can be angry, but we shouldn't be stupid, when we put it to work.

Reigning Champion Nadal Withdraws From London Olympics
London, England
by ATP Staff|
Reigning Olympic champion Rafael Nadal has pulled out of the London Games due to tendinitis in the knee.
"I am not in [a] condition to compete in the London Olympics and therefore will not travel as planned with the Spanish delegation to take part in the games," said Nadal in a statement.
"I have to think about my companions, I can't be selfish and I have to think of what's best for Spanish sport… and give fellow sportsmen with better preparation the chance to compete. I tried to hurry my preparations and training to the very last minute, but it was not to be."
"It is one of the saddest days of my career. You can imagine how difficult it was to take this decision."
The 26-year-old Nadal was set to carry the Spanish flag at the opening ceremony in London.
He beat Fernando Gonzalez for the singles gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Nadal has not competed since a Wimbledon second round loss to World No. 100 Lukas Rosol last month.

Apple 1 Computer Sells for Record US$905,000
In the October 8, 2014, newsletter I wrote, "Here is a Chance to Own a Piece of Computer History: an Original Apple 1 Computer." I wrote about a History of Science auction at Bonhams New York here an original Apple 1 computer was to be sold. Auction officials expected to attract bids between US$300,000 and $500,000. They were wrong.
The computer sold for US$905,000, becoming the most expensive Apple computer ever sold.

The Recent Growth of Chromebooks: Right For You?
I have written often about Chromebooks, the low-cost competitor to Windows and Macintosh laptop computers. (My earlier Chromebook articles can be found by starting at http://goo.gl/LoScjt.) I purchased one of the first Chromebooks and still use it often. As Mark Spoonaur writes in Laptop Magazine:
Whether it's because of their very affordable prices or an aversion to Windows 8′s complexity, more and more shoppers are buying Chromebooks. There are some valid reasons to choose a Chromebook over a Windows machine, including a very intuitive interface (it's largely browser based), a lack of upgrade headaches, and less worrying about malware. And while Chromebooks have limited offline capability, there's a growing number of apps that work without a Wi-Fi connection.
In fact, sales of desktop and laptop computers have been declining in the past few years; but ABI Research found that, in the most recent quarter, Chromebook shipments increased by 67 percent, quarter over quarter. The research company expects that, year over year, Chromebooks shipments will double. (Details may be found at http://goo.gl/dT2nBb.) ABI Research Analyst Stephanie Van Vactor made a statement that "Consumers are hungry for a product that is cost effective but also provides the versatility and functionality of a laptop. The growth of the Chromebook market demonstrates a niche that is gaining traction among consumers."
Turn Your Cell Phone into a Portable Scanner
One of the most useful, low-cost gadgets is an affordable, foldable, quick setup, photography lightbox. The StandScan Snap can digitize business receipts, documents of all sorts, photographs, jewelry, coins, or even items you wish to sell online. By using a large-screen television of a computer projector, it can even be used to project live demonstrations using small objects with an iPhone's Airplay or similar software on an Android phone.
The Standscan Snap is a foldable lightbox made from a high-quality recycled laminated card stock. It is easy to put together as the various tabs snap into place. There is no software to download, no drivers to install, and no cables to connect. You can begin using StandScan Snap within seconds of opening the box. Simply snap the frame into place, switch the lights on and start shooting.
The Standscan Snap folds up at any time and easily fits into a laptop carrying bag, making it great for traveling. Best of all is the price: $34.95.
Here is a Chance to Own a Piece of Computer History: an Original Apple 1 Computer
The upcoming History of Science auction at Bonhams New York could provide fine opportunities for investments in rare collectibles, including a 1976 Apple 1 motherboard. According to Bonhams, around 200 Apple 1 computers were built and were the first pre-assembled personal computers to hit the market. This particular model is believed to be part of a first batch of 50 and was sold for US$666.66 at the time. It is said to be in working order and, complete with vintage keyboard, Sanyo monitor and owner's manual, is expected to attract bids between US$300,000 and $500,000.
HP Stream Laptops and Tablets will provide Windows on a Budget
I have written often about Chromebooks, the low-cost laptops that boot quickly, never get viruses, and provide the functionality that most computer users want. These lower-powered computers typically sell for $200 to $300. They need to be connected to the Internet to run most programs although there are a number of exceptions.
Chromebooks have been selling like hotcakes. Amazon publishes a list of the company's 100 best-selling laptop computers at http://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Computers-Accessories-Laptop/zgbs/pc/565108. As I write these words, Chromebooks are the third, sixth, twelfth, fourteenth, and fifteenth most popular laptops on the list. I stopped looking after #15.
HP obviously has been paying attention to sales numbers. I suspect HP's sales of Windows laptops has been dropping due to competition from Chromebooks. (HP also makes Chromebooks but I suspect the profit margins on Chromebooks have been slim.) Now the company has announced its own line of low-cost laptop and tablet computers that run Windows 8.1, apparently designed to compete with Chromebooks.
The new tablet computers start at $100 and $150 respectively, and will run full Windows 8.1, not Android or iOS. The 11.6-inch and 13.3-inch notebooks are priced at $200 and $230.
Zuta, the Tiny Printer that Fits in a Briefcase or in Your Pocket
I travel a lot. Of course, I always take along a laptop computer. …and a tablet computer … and a cell phone. I use them often while traveling and occasionally have a need to print something. Of course, packing a printer in the suitcase is close to impossible these days. To be sure, there are a few compact printers that are advertised as "portable" but I have always found them lacking. They are either a bit too big and bulky or else they print slowly or only on special paper that feels "waxy" and rubs off on your fingers. In short, I have never found a portable printer that I wanted to carry with me… until now.
Zuta is a tiny printer that is entering production now. It is expected to ship in January or soon after and will have a price tag of about $240. To be sure, it will be a slow printer at 1.2 pages per minute but it is compact, not much bigger than a softball. You won't use the Zuta to print a book but it should work great whenever you need to print two or three pages. It will print on normal paper as used in almost all other inkjet printers.
Chromebooks vs. Windows Laptops: What Should You Buy?
I have written often about the advantages of Chromebooks when compared to Windows systems. (See my past Chromebook articles by starting at http://goo.gl/nz9UMN.) Now Laptop Magazine has published a side-by-side comparison by Anna Attkisson of Chromebooks versus Windows. If you are considering the purchase of either a Windows or Chromebook laptop, you will want to read the article.
Attkisson compares the following:
Are DVDs and CDs Disintegrating?
There have been a number of articles in this newsletter and elsewhere in genealogy publications about long-term storage of magnetic and optical media. Many of us are concerned about the life expectancy of CD-ROM and the newer DVD-ROM disks. Tina Sieber writes in the MakeUseOF web site, "While estimations predict a life time of up to 200 years for optical discs, we can never be sure when they are really going to break. However, by being aware of what determines the life span of optical discs and what causes them to break, you can make choices and significantly increase the survival time of your stored data."
Tina describes music on CD and movies on DVD disks, but her comments apply equally to computer data stored on DVD-ROM disks.
You can read her article at http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/cds-truth-cddvd-longevity-mold-rot/.
Magic Wand Scanners for $23 and Up
I have written often about the Magic Wand scanners that slip into a purse or a larger coat pocket. Genealogists usually can find dozens of uses for these. I use then for scanning pages from old books and for scanning the utility bills printed on paper that I receive in the mail. I prefer other scanners for making digital images of photographs, especially color photos.
The Daily Steals web site is offering a variety of Magic Want scanners with different capabilities at ridiculous prices: only $23 for the basic scanner and $59 for the top-of-the line Magic Wand scanner with built-in wi-fi networking. Those prices even include free shipping to U.S. addresses.
At these prices, the scanners will sell out quickly. You can find them at http://www.dailysteals.com/heist/#heist/1053.
The World's First Mobile Phone?
According to an article in The Daily Mail, Philadelphia experimenter W W McFarlane invented a mobile telephone in 1920 that required three pieces of stove pipe stuck to a board as an aerial. It reportedly worked over a range of up to 500 yards.
I find it interesting that the person talking on the "telephone" in the above picture was not driving. I wish people today would not drive and talk on the phone simultaneously.
I Added Four Terabytes to My Personal Cloud
In the past 18 years that I have been writing this newsletter, I think I have written the following statement at least a dozen times: "The price of disk storage keeps dropping." Today I am writing that statement one more time. This weekend, I purchased a four-terabyte NAS hard drive and added it to my in-home network. I now have even more space for my backups and those of my family members. Best of all, the price was so low as to be undreamed of only a few years ago. You can do the same.
I elected to purchase a network-attached storage (NAS) drive, not the normal USB drive.
Get a 14-inch HP Chromebook and Free 4G Wireless for $179.99 or $199.99
I have written often about the low-cost Chromebook computers and how useful they are. I own one of the earlier Chromebooks and use it often. Now Rick Broida has found a bargain that is appealing. (I love the bargains that Rick finds!) This Chromebook has much better specs than my aging computer.
The refurbished HP Chromebook 14 is available for $179.99, plus $5 for shipping. That's for the white model with 2 gigabytes of RAM memory. If you want 4 gigabytes of RAM and your choice of white, turquoise, or peach, the price jumps to just $199.99.
The best thing of all is the included 200 megabytes of monthly wireless data connections, courtesy of T-Mobile, at no extra charge. This laptop is not limited to short-range wi-fi networks, although it can use wi-fi also. As long as you are within range of a T-Mobile cell phone tower, you can read and write email messages, surf the web, and do most anything else you want to do online. There is no annual contract and no credit card required to activate the service. (I have the same service in my iPad and use it often.)
HP announces an Android-powered Notebook
For a long time, most of us assumed that laptops and the smaller "notebook" computers would always run either the Windows or the Macintosh operating system. In the past few years, the Chrome has taken over the lower-priced laptop market, as shown by the list of best selling laptop computers updated hourly by Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Computers-Accessories-Laptop/zgbs/pc/565108. As I write these words, Chromebooks account for six of the top 15 laptops being sold today by Amazon.
Now there is a new contender: Android.
Hands On: HP's new 7 Plus, an Excellent $99 or $119 Android Tablet
Hewlett-Packard has a new tablet computer that I think is a bargain. The HP 7 Plus retails for only $119, but HP has been selling them at an "introductory price" of $99. This low-priced tablet has most all the features of tablet computers that cost much more. The $99 price even includes free shipping. I purchased a 7 Plus a few days ago and now am impressed with this tablet computer. It runs all the available Android tablet applications, including genealogy programs. It also is an excellent ebook reader, capable of storing hundreds of ebooks, including Kindle books, ePub books, PDF ebooks, and more. It stores and displays thousands of digital photographs and MP3 music files, and it can even store and play several full-length Hollywood movies when riding on airplanes or on the commuter train. Not bad for $99!
Forget Linux – A Chromebook is the Perfect Replacement for Windows XP
Here is one more article about Chromebooks. This one was written by Daniel Price and is available on the MakeUseOf web site at http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/forget-linux-chromebook-perfect-replacement-windows-xp/.
You can read my earlier articles about Chromebooks by starting at http://wp.me/p5Z3-8J and at http://wp.me/p5Z3-fO.
Google Glass Now On Sale in US, and I Got Mine!
Google is making Google Glass available to everyone in the U.S., as long as supplies last. The devices being sold are clearly labeled as "beta," meaning that not all bugs are stamped out just yet. The company said it still considers this to be part of the Glass Explorer Program, otherwise known as "beta." It is not a full-blown consumer launch, which is expected to happen later this year. At this time Google is also limiting orders to U.S. customers only.
Being an early adopter, I ordered mine weeks ago, and it arrived yesterday. I am still learning how to use it.
A Chromebook Laptop Computer for $99
I use a Chromebook often and love it. It boots up within seconds and never gets viruses. It is a very capable computer that surfs the web, reads and writes email, plays hundreds of games, and works well with Facebook, Twitter, and dozens of other online services. It does require a wi-fi Internet connection to accomplish most tasks, however. Chromebooks normally sell for $200 to $350 or so. Today, Rick Broida's CNET Cheapskate column lists a well-known and highly-rated Acer C710 Chromebook that sells for $99 and that price even includes free 2-day shipping.
To be sure, that price is after a mail-in $20 rebate and the laptop is factory recertified, meaning that it was returned to the factory for some reason, then checked out and offered for sale again. It includes a 90-day warranty. I already own a similar Chromebook but if I was looking to buy a new laptop, I'd consider this one carefully. It is an excellent laptop computer for yourself, a child, a grandchild, or for an adult with limited or no computer experience.
Grace Hopper and the UNIVAC
Look at the handheld tablet or smartphone you carry in your pocket or purse. It seems difficult to believe it is far more powerful than the Univac-I computer that weighed 13 tons, had 5,200 vacuum tubes, and took up a whole garage. Only 46 Univac-I computers were ever built but it revolutionized the world.
Grace Hopper, born in New York in 1906, was an associate professor of mathematics at Vassar when WWII broke out. Volunteering for the US Navy Reserve, she was assigned to the Bureau of Ships Computation Project, where she worked on the Harvard Mark I project (a calculating machine used in the war effort), from 1944–9, co-authoring several papers.
Refurbished NeatDesk Scanners are on Sale
Every genealogist needs a scanner (or two!) to save documents, notes, and much more. In addition, I have written a number of times about the advantages of going paperless. One disadvantage of going paperless, however, is the high prices of the document scanners, especially those that scan both sides of a sheet of paper and have an automatic sheet feed input tray that can hold a number sheets of paper to be scanned at one time. Now Staples has a sale on refurbished Neat scanners that can make life easier for anyone who is drowning in paper.
The Neat Scanner is speedy, portable, and able to handle documents of all sizes easily, from business cards to full-sized sheets of paper. It is available in two varieties, the NeatDesk that can hold a stack of papers to be scanned as well as the NeatReceipts, a smaller, USB-powered version that can only handle one sheet of paper at a time but easily fits into a briefcase.

Robbery spree leads to more charges for Derry woman
Rochelle Richards, 23, is being held on $50,000 bail at the Rockingham County jail, facing charges of robbery and attempted robbery.
She was also indicted last month in Rockingham County Superior Court for the April 9 attempted robbery of a Subway restaurant on Perkins Road in Londonderry.
Richards allegedly told an employee at Subway that she had a gun, but no weapon was shown, according to prosecutors.
Derry police arrested Richards after receiving tips that helped identify her. Police in Londonderry and Manchester then brought charges for similar incidents.
The Manchester robbery happened about 40 minutes after the attempted robbery in Londonderry, police said.
She was recently allowed by a judge to enter a residential drug treatment center while awaiting trial on all charges. But Richards must first find a program that will accept her before her bail is converted into personal recognizance, according to a judge's order.

Mar 14, 2014A little bit of nuance, which might seem out of place in such raunchy environs, actually goes a long way.
It's tough to summon sufficiently negative language to describe the unfunny, desperate mess that is Bad Words.
The meager comeuppance and hasty notes of sweetness that end the film feel pre-approved rather than organically realized.
For precursors of Guy's perversity, one would have to go back to W.C. Fields, who made antic art out of his characters' abhorrence of children.
Bateman, as both director and star, digs his heels in too hard to make the movie's points, using lots of ho-hum close-ups and wriggly camera work along the way.
Mar 27, 2014The laughs in this film are all mean-spirited or just frat-boy gross.
Misogynistic, homophobic, scatological — none of these words come up in any of the spelling bees that take place in Jason Bateman's directorial debut, but they apply to the film.
A young Jack Nicholson might have pulled this off, but Jason Bateman is not Jack Nicholson. Pity the actor who thinks he's edgier than he actually is.
Bad Words wants so desperately to be funny that there isn't much time left to make any logic out of the story.

Mar 16, 2014Bad words is a really fun little movie, one that I laughed very hard in. Bateman is absolutely hilarious with his deadpan insults, and I enjoyed his interaction with a little Indian kid. As always Kathryn Hahn is awesome, but I wish her character and her motivation were flushed out a bit more. Her sex scene is by far the best in the movie. For an uproarious movie of this kind, it seemed that the basic plot underpinnings, the reason he went through with this spelling bee, is just a little bit strained and depressing and I think the writers probably could've been a better job in providing him with motivation.… Full Review »
Aug 12, 2014Bad Words goes for outrageous comedy with some real dramatic moments, and it works. It is short and effective. While Bateman did fine with his directorial debut, the movie's strength is in the screenplay.… Full Review »
Jul 9, 2014While struggling to make an all round great movie, Bad Words has some extremely funny moments. The film does have a standard type ending, though Bateman is at his best. B+… Full Review »

Full-Frame D-SLRs
Nature photographers now have six models from which to choose at widely varying prices. These cameras are about more than just a larger image sensor.
When we last looked at full-frame D-SLRs, there were four models. In the ensuing months, one of those was replaced, and two new ones were added, giving us six of these high-tech super-cameras today. As long as there have been D-SLRs, OP readers have been keenly interested in full-frame models. The early models were priced out of reach for the vast majority of us, but as technology marches forward, the costs of that technology consistently come down. Instead of two models listing at more than $6,000, prices today begin comfortably at less than half that amount.
There are slots for CompactFlash (UDMA-compliant) and SD/SDHC memory cards, and you can record the same image to both, a RAW image to one and a JPEG to the other, or other combinations. You even can record images to compatible external hard drives.

These are handwritten in German, so I cannot read them. There are a few pictures enclosed. I am not interested in selling them, nor do I want to see them on ebay or some other auction site.

Book Description:
Providing an in-depth case study of a highly successful public-private partnership, this book offers valuable insights for privatizing an existing public service. A mix of theory and empirical analysis, the study initially creates and explains a model for the Privatization Transfer Process, which serves as a guide for contracting out services. Drawing on the experience of the Orlando Orange County Expressway Authority when it privatized toll road operations, the book traces the steps taken through the initial decision to privatize, the creation of the Request for Proposal, and the review and rating of three bidder responses. It then follows the awarding of the bid to the Florida Toll Services and the transition from public to private control.The book also considers technical and pricing concerns as well as issues pertaining to contract management. In conclusion, it evaluates the entire effort. By offering a detailed analysis of a very successful privatization experience, the book provides a useful tool for those concerned with privatization issues.

Apple shares fall on reports of cuts to iPhone parts orders
REUTERS - Shares in Apple Inc (AAPL.O) dipped below $500 for the first time in almost one year after reports it is slashing orders for screens and other components from its Asian supplier as intensifying competition erodes demand for its latest iPhone.
Japan's Nikkei reported on Monday that the world's largest technology corporation began sharply reducing buying of liquid crystal displays about a month ago from suppliers like Japan Display Inc and Sharp Corp.
Sharp's stock dipped as much as 7 percent in early trading on Tuesday and shares in South Korean Apple suppliers such as LG Display also fell.
"We can't comment on individual clients," said Miyuki Nakayama, a spokeswoman for Sharp, which builds iPhone 5 screens at its Kameyama plant in central Japan. Japan Display, a state-run business formed from the small LCD units of Sony Corp, Toshiba Corp and Hitachi Ltd also declined to discuss its orders.
The Nikkei report, later matched by the Wall Street Journal, comes as hard-charging rivals like Samsung Electronics, which makes phones based on Google Inc's popular Android software, continue to expand market share globally.
Apple stock slid more than 4 percent to an intraday low of $498.51 -- a level not seen since February 16, 2012 -- before bouncing back to trade just above $500 at midday. The news also hurt shares of suppliers such as Cirrus Logic Inc (CRUS.O), which dived 9 percent.
Some analysts argued that Apple and its manufacturing partners had struggled with quality issues that might have curtailed production times.
Dogged by low production yields, Sharp last year fell behind schedule for iPhone 5 screen shipments in the run-up to the phone's launch in September. Sharp has yet to acknowledge that Apple is a customer.
"Our checks with supply chain contacts close to the situation identified a very different cause: a slower ramp in the manufacturing of iPhones and iPads (reflecting some quality control issues) and insufficient production lines," said JoAnne Feeney of Longbow Research.
"Rather than ordering more components and having inventory build up further, Apple put component suppliers on notice to hold off, for the time being, on further shipments until it expanded its production lines - which it plans to complete by the end of the quarter."
By some estimates, the holiday quarter may have been the worst for U.S. retailers since the 2008 financial crisis, with sales growth far below expectations. Other data yields a more mixed picture of holiday season demand.
Apple was not immediately available for comment. No one at Sharp was immediately available to comment on Monday - a national holiday in Japan - and parts suppliers to Apple in Taiwan declined to comment.
Apple has asked Japan Display, Sharp and LG Display Co Ltd to roughly halve supplies of LCD panels from an initial plan for about 65 million screens in January-March, the Nikkei cited people familiar with the situation as saying.
Japan Display's plant in southwest Japan, where Apple has invested heavily, is expected to temporarily reduce output by up to 80 percent from October-December levels, the Nikkei reported, while Sharp's dedicated facility for iPhone 5 LCDs will trim production in January-February by about 40 percent.
The move, if confirmed, would tally with analysts saying that sales of the new iPhone 5, which was released in September, have not been as strong as anticipated.
Apple has lost ground gradually to South Korean rival Samsung, as well as smaller, fast-growing rivals such as China's Huawei Technologies Co Ltd and ZTE Corp.
Samsung overtook Apple in 2012 to become the world's biggest seller of smartphones, helped in part by the popularity of its Galaxy Note II phone-cum-tablet and a vastly wider range of low- to high-end devices that appeal to a broad swath of consumers. Apple rolled out a single new smartphone last year.
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek trimmed his iPhone shipment estimates for the January-March quarter on December 14, saying that the technology company had started cutting orders to suppliers to balance excess inventory.
Apple also cut its orders for memory chips for its new iPhone from its main supplier and competitor Samsung, Reuters reported in September, quoting sources with direct knowledge of the matter.
The company has been cutting back its orders from Samsung as it seeks to diversify its memory chip supply lines.
Samsung said on Monday that global sales of its flagship Galaxy S smartphones had topped 100 million since the first model was launched in May 2010. The Galaxy S3, launched last May, sold more than 40 million in seven months.
The Galaxy S IV is expected within months and may sport an unbreakable screen, full high-definition quality resolution of 440 pixels per inch, and a more powerful processor.
It's expected to increase its smartphone sales by more than a third this year and widen its lead over Apple, according to researcher Strategy Analytics. It forecast Samsung will sell 290 million smartphones in 2013 versus iPhone sales of 180 million.
Kim Sung-in, an analyst at Kiwoom Securities in Seoul, sees Samsung shipping 320 million smartphones this year and doubling sales of its tablets to 32 million.

The infamous Keystone XL oil pipe line remains a pipe dream for those who support construction of the link between Canadian tar sands and a seaport in Texas which would send the oil to nations throughout the world. When this fight began the United States of America was in dire need of new oil because it was dependent upon foreign nations to meet national oil requirements. Republicans have shouted that construction of this pipe line would create "millions of jobs" and bring prosperity to America. OK, those working on construction of the pipeline would get jobs, however, we are discussing, thousands, not millions. Even in Republican controlled Nebraska the government is hesitant about having a pipeline go through its land. As I recall, Republicans believe in "state rights" unless state rights do not accord with their political views. Poor Senator Mary Landrieu who is fighting for her life to get elected hoped passage of HER bill might result in victory in a runoff. Alas, that will not happen because the bill fell one vote short of passage.
Reality: at this moment in time the United States of America produces more oil than any other nation in the world due to fracking. We do NOT need more oil at this time. Actually, Canada is in the process of sending their oil to ports on their west coast, and, most probably, to the east coast. There is NO problem. So, calm down and relax. We are NUMBER ONE! So there, Saudi Arabia!

October 2014. On October 10th, the newly renovated CECMEE Field Station (aka "Trotta's Farm") was formally "dedicated" to the students via a ribbon-cutting ceremony. New NAU President Rita Cheng, Provost Laura Huenneke and Dean Paul Jagodzinski were present, along with members of the CENE Industrial Advisory Board, faculty and students. IAB member and alumnus Jason Ramsey spoke in recognition of Dr. Paul Trotta, who assisted Dr. Cheng with the ribbon cutting. Renovations included a new access road, ADA compliance, and a renovated building with a large roll-up garage door, heated project space, an office, wireless internet, restrooms and storage. In addition to being a peaceful, scenic place amid the bustle of campus life, the Field Station will serve as a working lab for CENE and CM undergraduate and graduate student capstone and research projects.

Rating is more like 3.5 stars. For me, the first half of the novel was pretty close to 5 stars, the middle parts concerning his marriage (and the swinging 70's---a particularly annoying era in literature as far as I'm concerned and probably the sole reason why I didn't rate this novel 4 stars) were closer 2 stars, and the end picked up a little. Basically the novel was all over the map for me and, as seems to be the case with the other two Irving novels I've read, I became irritated with Irving's verbosity and scattered narratives.
With that said, this is a novel that I can see myself picking up again one day, giving it another try in the interest of "second reading insights" and recognizing the fact that 1970's literature (explicitly, 1970's literature dealing with contemporary sexual mores---blech) turns me off and may have biased me against the rest of the book.
Irving writes LONG books but fantastic LONG books. Spending the time to glide through the pages is worth every word.
What is the book about? Really?!? Do I need to go into this? Read the blurb. Just know that the book is excellent and everyone should read it.
How clever is "The Under Toad"? The cute back-story that gets mutilated by all the UNDER TOADS that happen throughout the book. I hope that doesn't give much away... but I'm pretty sure that it would be more confusing to someone than anything else.
Irving has some amazing quotes in this novel too. One of my favorite quotes had to do with the feeling one gets when everything stops and the world goes monotone; "What Garp was savoring was the beginning of a writer's long-sought trance, wherein the world falls under one embracing tone of voice." You don't have to BE a writer to have experienced that feeling, I believe it relates to any art.
This was a very interesting book. I haven't read a book like this before and definitely the first novel written by John Irving. I was actually quite impressed and very much enjoyed this book. Definitely a reader for anyone! Instead of getting rid of this book I decided its a keeper!
I liked The World According to Garp well enough. It was a strange story, full of odd people and bizarre incidents and surprising episodes of violence. It's not a story you can really get close to, I think — more one that you follow at arm's length. That alone is enough to keep it from being the newest addition to my list of favorites. I tend to prefer books I can connect with, and this wasn't one of them. Still, it was pretty good.
Full review is posted on Erin Reads.
I watched the movie a long time ago. The book, not surprisingly, was much better. It offers interesting insight into the life of a writer and his philosophy on writing, albeit in a fictional sense. Unfortunately I chose to read Irving's afterword, which was written twenty years after Garp's publication. Sometimes you don't want to know the mechanics behind the art. Okay, for me, that's most of the time. I should just not read afterwords.
The World According to Garp was more than single, memorable moments. It was unforgettable as a whole for a simple reason - it was epic. It was what a Great American Novel needs to be: all of life between covers.
These things oughtn't to be funny. Still, the way that Mr. Irving writes about them, they are. They way he filters them through his hero's unique imagination, we not only laugh at the world according to Garp, but we also accept it and love it.

Wikipedia in English (1)
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 034536676X, Mass Market Paperback)"Garp was a natural storyteller," says the narrator of John Irving's incandescent novel, referring to the book's hero, the novelist Garp, who has much in common with Irving himself. "He could make things up one right after the other, and they seemed to fit."
Irving packs wild characters and weird events into his classic--officially recognized as such in a Modern Library edition with a new introduction by the author--while amazingly maintaining the rough feel of realism in every scene and the pulse of life in every heart. Many novelists of his time might have populated a novel with a novelist protagonist whose life and books comment on each other and the novel we're reading. Transsexual football players, ball turret gunners lobotomized in battle, multiple adultery, unicycling bears, mad feminists who amputate their tongues in sympathy with the celebrated victim of a horrifying rape--Irving made them all people. Even the bear is a fitting character.
In a crucial episode, Garp's wife's seduction of a young man coincidentally occurs at the moment when Garp is delighting their young sons with a reckless car trick (one of the few scenes beautifully, eerily, heartbreakingly captured in the film version as well). Many authors would have been content with the harsh comedy of the scene, but Irving respects its integrity, and he builds the rest of the book on the consequences of the event. How does he get away with his killer cocktail of slapstick and horror? Because it's simply what we all face daily, rearranged into soul-satisfying art. "Life is an X-rated soap opera," according to Garp, and who can contradict him?
Rereading Garp 20 years later, one is struck by how elegantly Irving structures his bizarre and complex story. Take the two most celebrated bits in the book, the Under Toad and Garp's story "The Pension Grillparzer," which shimmers like an exquisite Kafkaesque insect in the amber of the novel. When Garp warns his son about the "undertow" at the beach, the boy imagines a monster out of Beowulf who lurks beneath the waves to suck you under: the "Under Toad." It's funny at first, but we soon find that the Under Toad is a metaphor with teeth--he connects with a prophetic dream of death in "The Pension Grillparzer," set in Vienna. Garp's son's last words are, "It's like a dream!" And as Irving--who studied at the University of Vienna--can certainly tell you, the German word for "death" sounds precisely like the English word "toad."
All that death, and yet Garp is mainly exuberant. This story is, as Garp's stuttering writing teacher puts it, "rich with lu-lu-lunacy and sorrow." It enriches literature, and our lives. --Tim Appelo

ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" is asking for 20 more framers to help them build the Tutwiler's new home in Chapman.
A producer with the show said crews are running behind schedule
due to rain, concrete not curing fast enough and an incredibly extreme amount of projects. They advise framers to show up at the build site on sixth street in Chapman with their tools
The "Extreme Makeover" team is building a home for the family of Patrick Tutwiler. The Iraq War veteran was shot while on his tour of duty overseas. He returned home with a traumatic brain injury, memory loss, speech problems and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Less than a year later, his family home was destroyed in the June 11 Chapman tornado.
For the next few days, they're on an all-expense paid Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. They're scheduled to come back Tuesday to witness the grand unveiling of the home.
ABC has not decided when the Chapman episode of Extreme Makeover will air, but the company said it should be in January or February of 2009.
