Bus firm Reays launching service between west Cumbria and Carlisle
Last updated at 11:45, Friday, 21 December 2012
Bus company Reays is launching a service between Workington, Maryport and Carlisle, in direct competition with Stagecoach.
The R300/R302 will start on January 7 and provide up to six journeys each way, Mondays to Saturdays.
Most will call at the Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle, providing a direct link to the hospital from west Cumbria for the first time.
Some school-day journeys go via Wigton's Nelson Thomlinson School for the benefit of pupils travelling from Maryport, Aspatria and Waverton.
Reays says the route will be operated by new, low-emission, easily-accessible, single-deck buses with free WiFi.
The Wigton-based firm has been involved in a heated battle with Stagecoach in Carlisle since it launched the City Hopper network there in 2010.
It added the Lakes Hopper, between Keswick, Grasmere and Bowness-on-Windermere, last summer.
Andy Horn, Reays' operations manager for City Hopper, said: "We are launching the service from Workington to Carlisle after requests from people in Wigton and west Cumbria.
"They have seen the success of our City Hopper and have been saying, 'When are you going to have a connection out west?'. We felt it was time to provide a service.
"The direct link to the hospital means that people don't have to change buses or face a long walk to Wigton Road.
"And we're bringing buses into the 21st century by providing free WiFi."
A Weekly Hopper ticket will give one week's unlimited travel for £20.
There will also be a Double Hopper day ticket for £8 and weekly tickets for Nelson Thomlinson pupils priced at £10.50 from Waverton, £13.50 from Aspatria and £17.50 from Maryport.
Reays already operates a handful of routes in west Cumbria, such as the 35 and 36 from Workington to Cockermouth and the 60 from Maryport to Skinburness.
But these are subsidised services provided under contract to Cumbria County Council.
The R300/R302 is its first commercial venture in competition with Stagecoach.

Suspension differencies between 335i xDrive and 335i - both with Sport Line

cfm - I'm in the same boat as you... I've been leaning toward an xDrive, but I was concerned about the possibility of giving up a suspension more suited to sporty handling.
I've had both RWD and xi e46 3 series over the years, and I've learned the following:
My 2000 e46 328Ci (RWD with DSC) was *astoundingly* good on Vermont's twisty snow covered roads with the stock Michelin all-season tires... far better than the front-wheel drive VW Corrado that it replaced. I was amazed, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend a RWD car with all season tires for snow country.
In terms of performance driving, I have come to appreciate the tenacious grip that I get when getting on the gas early in a corner - particularly on wet or otherwise sketchy pavement. I presently own two AWD BMWs (an X5 and a 325xi); my X5 Sport has camber plates and a strut brace (among other mods), and it is unshakable in corners... the limiting factors are just the weight and the high CoG. The 325xi Sport has awesome grip too, but it would really benefit from a little stiffer suspension. I'd be very curious to see how track times of RWD and xDrive F30s would match up if the suspension firmness and ride height were the same.
So from my experience, I think you won't be giving up much either way, whichever option you choose.
For me, it's less a question of bad weather safety, and more a matter of which is the preferred driving dynamic for every day driving. I am literally headed to the dealer this evening to (yet again) drive xDrive and RWD models back-to-back to try to make my choice.

One Small Step for Oceana, One Giant Leap for the Environment
Five down, four to go. ...
We told you a few months back about a meeting the Chlorine Institute held in which top-level executives discussed how best to deal with Oceana, since we'd been pressuring a number of chlorine-alkali plants to invest in mercury-free technology.
As it turns out, the best way to handle a tenacious conservation organization is to simply take their advice. Take ERCO Worldwide, for example, the most recent to announce it'll make the switch to mercury-free technology.
The largest mercury polluter in Wisconsin has agreed to convert to modern mercury-free technology, another big step in the effort to transition all chlorine-alkali factories to 21st century standards.
ERCO Worldwide will spend $95 million in the conversion, expected to take just over two years with membrane technology starting up in 2009. The company will save millions in the long-run, though, as a recent Oceana report revealed that mercury-free technology is not only better for the environment, it's better for the bottom line. Everybody wins.
Not much more than a year ago, nine chlorine plants in the United States were still emitting mercury into the atmosphere, which ultimately seeps into the oceans, contaminating the oceans and the seafood residing there -- the same seafood people eat.
The FDA issued a warning a while back for pregnant women and small children that they should not consume certain species that are particularly exposed to mercury contamination because mercury can cause neurological damage to developing children.

Wifi-enabled mobile devices such as the iPhone, iPod Touch, G1, and Blackberry Bold are driving the increase in accessing the mobile web via Wifi, according to new data released by Admob.
Last month, mobile web requests via Wifi represented 8% of all mobile web requests. 19% of all mobile web requests were made by Wifi-enabled devices, up from just 9% in August.
Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch dominates the field of total Wifi requests at 78%. In fact, 42% of all web requests from the iPhone are generated on Wifi. But keep in mind that the G1 was just released in the middle of October and one month later was in the top 10 of devices accessing via Wifi. It already represents 7% of total T-Mobile traffic. The Blackberry Bold hasn't cracked the top 10 (yet) but is also a relatively new phone.
Another interesting note is that Sony's portable gaming device, the PlayStation Portable (PSP), generates 13% of all Wifi requests for the mobile web. It's not the only portable gaming device that is Wifi-enabled. The Nintendo DS can access Wifi, but it's not showing up at the top of these lists.

The U.S. economic recovery hasn't felt much like one even for people who managed to find new jobs after being laid off. Most of them have had to settle for less pay.
Only 56 percent of Americans laid off from January 2009 through December 2011 had found jobs by the start of this year, the Labor Department said Friday. More than half of them took jobs with lower pay. One-third took pay cuts of 20 percent or more.
The figures would be even lower if people who could find only part-time jobs were included in the total.
The report provides an illustration of the job market's persistent weakness well after the Great Recession officially ended in June 2009. It also documents that while the economy has added nearly 3 million jobs since the recovery began, many pay less than those that were lost.
Laid-off workers always have a harder time finding new jobs than do people who quit. But since the government began tracking such data in 1984, people who lost jobs in a recovery haven't had it as hard as they did in the one that began three years ago.
And the pay cuts in their new jobs usually aren't so deep.
For example, in 2003-2005, a period that included a slow recovery, nearly 70 percent of those who were laid off found jobs. More than half who found full-time work in the three years ending in 2005 did so at the same or higher pay.
The government compiles data on laid-off workers every two years. The report covers only people who had worked at least three years in the same job before being laid off. In doing so, it focuses on those who had stable careers before they lost work.
The figures show some improvement compared with the previous report, which covered 2007 through 2009, coinciding with the Great Recession.
But compared with most other recoveries, "this is really bad," said Dean Baker, an economist and co-director of the Center for Economic Policy Research.
Baker noted that of the 6.1 million people who lost jobs from 2009 through 2011, only 15 percent have found new ones with equal or higher pay. That compares with 25 percent in the three years before the recession.
"You were much more likely to be re-employed in 2007 at the same or higher wage than now," he said.

Hunter Kraus was named an All-America Scholar by the Golf Coaches Association.
July 25, 2013
Columbia, Mo. - University of Missouri Golf standouts Emilio Cuartero and Hunter Kraus were named Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholars by the Golf Coaches Association of America on Thursday.
To earn recognition, a collegiate golfer must be a junior or senior academically and compete in at least 50 percent of the team's rounds during the year. The golfer must also carry a minimum grade-point average of a 3.2.
Both Cuartero and Kraus exceeded those standards and both will be counted on heavily to help the Tigers return to postseason play once again in 2013-14. Mizzou was a consistent presence in the national rankings last season thanks to career-best seasons from Cuartero and Kraus.
A native of Lleida, Spain, Cuartero finished second on the team in scoring average (72.2) and recorded a victory at The Farms Intercollegiate (Feb. 11-12). Cuartero logged eight Top 15 finishes as a junior and was ninth overall at the 2013 NCAA Columbus Regional, tops on the team.
Kraus was one of the Southeastern Conference's most improved players last season and finished fourth on the team in scoring average (73.9). A native of Memphis, Tenn., Kraus recorded a pair of Top Five finishes as a junior, including a second-place finish at the Mizzou Intercollegiate (April 8-9). He was also Mizzou's top finisher at the SEC Championships, finishing 15th overall. Kraus owns an impressive 3.92 grade-point average in Chemistry and is earning his minor in Latin. He was named the SEC's 2013 Scholar-Athlete of the Year in Men's Golf.
Missouri Golf opens its 2013-14 season on Sept. 1-2 at the Turning Stone Tiger Intercollegiate. The event, hosted by Mizzou, is played in Verona, N.Y., on the Kualuhyat Championship Course.

Damage control (noun): When Microsoft's CEO kickstarts diversity plan after women pay gaffe
Why do they even bother
when journos will twist their words to pursue an agenda?
According to the article, "Also on the cards for Microsoft techies is a focus on closing pay gaps for employees. Nadella said the company will make a push to make sure that women and minority workers receive the same pay as others who do the same job."
And yet the leaked memo states "For example, last year women in the US at the same title and level earned 99.7% of what men earned at the same title and level".
What the leaked memo actually said is that Microsoft needs to make sure "not only that everyone receives equal pay for equal work, but that they have the opportunity to do equal work".
It's easy to make sure that everyone at a particular grade or level in a large organization is paid the same amount of money - it's a lot harder to make sure that everyone is at the grade that they deserve.

Re: something said to stop other governments from taking their own actions.
There is nothing stopping the US taxing these US corporations any way they like - the so-called "Double Irish" only exists because US tax law ignores transfers between foreign subsidiaries registered in the same country. (That's why you don't seen any UK companies moving their head-quarters to Dublin)
There's very little evidence that US multi-nationals are choosing Ireland simply because of the "Double-Irish" - they wouldn't bother employing thousands of workers, and constantly expanding those workforces there if all they wanted was to exploit a tax loophole, that they could do with a "brass-plate" office with a dozen employees (or none). They are taking advantage of the loophole in US tax law when they're here anyway, but it's a loop-hole in US tax law, not a loophole in Irish tax law.

Once camera that I used (a Fortinet clone of some sort) did some sort of DDNS with the camera's manufacturer, so that I could use <cameranumber>.<manufacturer>.com:<forwarded port> to access the camera from IPCam Viewer on an android phone when away from the house.
I obviously had to set up the port forwarding manually, and god alone knows what else might have been sent back to the manufacturer when the dynamic DNS request was being set up, or how often it was renewed, but given the recent hassles with NoIP and DynDNS.org, it was handy to have an accessible address for the camera. Your camera might be doing much the same, but it would be better for you if they documented it properly, so that you could use that address in 3rd party viewers.
T-Mobile US goes gaga for Wi-Fi calling, AT&T to launch in 2015
It's not cool until Apple does it
A colleague was gushing about this "new" feature of the Apple 6, though he had it ass-backward - he insisted that it would allow him to make calls to foreign countries for free, rather than to make free calls home from foreign countries when traveling.
I whipped out my 4 (5?) year old T-Mobile Blackberry 8900, turned off the cell-phone option, and called him over the office wi-fi connection. Was he impressed? Not in the least, but he still thinks it'll be cool now that Apple has invented it!

Re: @I ain't Spartacus, re Capitalism
"The data tariffs in the US are very high compared with Europe. "
ALL Verizon and AT&T tariffs are very high compared with Europe, even Voice and Text tariffs, with no data. It is possible to get relatively cheap voice/SMS tariffs with MVNOs like PagePlus, but US consumers are so used to thinking that cell phone plans cost $70+ (plus taxes and fees) that they can't conceive of cheaper tarriffs, except for "family plans", which cost more, but are cheaper on a "per line basis".
The thing that really gets me, though, is the PAYG credit that expires after 30 days. You can't just stick $10 of credit on a backup phone and have it available for emergencies.

Microsoft tells judge: Hold us in contempt of court, we're NOT giving user emails to US govt
Re: US corporations abroad
Funnily enough, the US Government is able to understand this concept when it comes to Tax, though it is increasingly unhappy about the way that US companies are "abusing" this process (and funnily enough, Ireland gets a mention in some of those cases too). There are probably some people in Washington DC that would use a government win in this case to push for a re-appraisal of how the profits of foreign subsidiaries of US Corporations are taxed, even if it meant killing a few golden-egg-laying gooses* along the way!
(golden-egg-laying geese just doesn't have the same ring to it!)
If Microsoft Ireland receives a request through the appropriate Irish legal channels for this data, it will hand it over. I don't know whether Irish law would require a High Court order, or whether a Circuit Court order would be sufficient, or whether Irish law provides a mechanism for the Garda/Police to request certain types of data directly.
Microsoft isn't arguing to prevent the release of these specific e-mails. They are arguing to prevent a US court ordering the release of these specific e-mails that are housed on servers outside of the US.
Apple's big bang: iPhone 6, ANOTHER iPhone 6 Plus and WATCH OUT

A comment heard across the office "Wow - you can set your thermostat at home from your watch!".
And this encapsulates what Apple is managing to achieve. The person who made this statement a) never had any interest in setting her thermostat when she isn't at home before, and b) is totally unaware that she has been able to do it from the phone that is never more that 12 inches from her person for at least the last 3 years, and that there are "Android Wear" tools to control Nest devices from the like of the Galaxy Gear and LG G watches for about 6 months now, if she really needs the phone form-factor to do this.

You can thank Brit funnyman John Oliver for fixing US broadband policy, beams Netflix
"Netflix is objecting to paying the standard transit rates by calling out those carriers and pretending they are being asked to 'double dip' (which is something only someone with zero understanding of how things actually run on the network would say), Netflix et.al. is over simplifying a technical issue in order to use the standard class envy/hate to their advantage..."
Let me explain it to you in very simple terms:
Verizon is charging end users who want to access Netflix.
Verizon is charging Netflix to allow Netflix to deliver the content that Verizons customers are requesting.
That's double-dipping.
Verizon will always be a net-consumer of bandwidth, and it wants to be paid more the more it allows it's own paying customers to consume!

Re: must be a Europe thing?
If their customers are going to be expensing their stay, they'll charge extra for wi-fi. If their customers are going to be paying for it themselves, it's usually "free" like breakfast (read - it's included in the price, whether you want it or not. And the prices have gone up in recent years, as they have added more of these services).
Cult of T-Mob US wants you to INDOCTRINATE your friends and family
This whole "Freinds and family" crap is such a pain in the arse!
I know why the US telcos like it so much - it makes the account much "stickier" but I don't want 4 or 6 or 10 lines, I just want one! I don't want to have to make arrangements with other people when I want to change my phone plan.
T-Mobile does have a reasonably priced (by US standards anyway) "unlimited web & text" plan for $30/month, but you only get 100 minutes of voice with that, and there is no true "pay-as-you-go" service available - you have to refill your account every 30 days, or they'll expire your number. You might as well go bill-pay if you have to pre-pay ever 30 days, whether you're using the phone or not! I'd like to pre-pay for 5GB of data, say, and use it over 6 months or a year, none of this 30-day expiration guff.
EU justice chief blasts Google on 'right to be forgotten'
@Condiment: "Some sites/businesses rely on page hits for some of their income. By excluding some of their pages from search hits their business is being adversely affected* and they have the right to know the reason."
Does Google notify the Telegraph when changes to Google's search algorithms impact the ranking of any Telegraph page? Like %^@! they do!
Google has been very consistent on this since the company was founded - Google has no responsibility to inform you when it makes changes that impact your search ranking, and it absolutely denies that it has any financial responsibility for any harm that you might claim is caused by such changes.
The sole reason that Google is informing the Telegraph and other media outlets about these changes is to attempt to undermine the rights of ordinary citizens, and to enlist the media in it's lobbying campaign on this issue.
Re: Forgotten?
The courts need to be involved where there is disagreement between the person making the request and Google - but once the basic principle is accepted, many requests can, and most importantly, should be accepted without court involvement - you don't have to go to court to exercise your rights most of the time, but you always have the court to fall back on when you believe that your rights have been infringed. People are laid off every day, and in most cases there is agreement or acceptance of the situation on both sides, but we still need employment tribunal cases when there is disagreement between the parties. Disabled people have the right to certain accommodations, and they don't have to go to court every day to exercise those rights, but from time to time the courts do need to get involved to define what is and what isn't reasonable.
The same goes for this "right" - in many cases (most cases, in an ideal world), there should be no need for the courts to make decisions, because there would be a fair degree of agreement on what constitutes a reasonable request. Google is actively disrupting the process of defining what might be reasonable in these situations.
If you want change the results that Google returns, it seems pretty obvious that you should be able to ask Google to do that, rather than chase down 20 different webmasters in 10 different countries. After all, it's not as if Google doesn't already apply all sorts of filters and weightings to the results that they display anyway.
The key principle here is that I should have some degree of control over a search that includes the phrase "Al Jones". That's what Google really objects to, because it doesn't want ordinary people getting in it's way.
If anyone was in contempt of court, it would be Google for notifying the Telegraph of the change.
Google's hypocrisy on this issue is pretty bad - they change the order of search results all they time as they tweak their own search algorithms, but not only do they not feel duty bound to "inform the victims" that they'll no longer show up on the first page of the a search term, they persistently refuse to explain what changes they made, and why.

Re: All I ever wanted out of a Bowser....
FF 31.0 ESR was released on July 22nd, along with 24.7 ESR. 24.8 ESR should be released at the beginning of September, along with 31.1 ESR, and that will be the last update for 24ESR.
Re: Why is FF trying to become Chrome?
Firefox 24ESR will stop getting security updates on October 14th - 31ESR has been released, and there will only be a "2 cycle" overlap, as far as I understand. That's 6 months more support than he'll get for version 28, which "expired" in April, but the there were significant changes to the Firefox UI between release 24 and release 28, so the 24ESR UI might not have features that he's using in 28.
Amazon smacks back at Hachette in e-book pricing battle: We're doing it for the readers
Re: El Reg is Pro-Amazon sympathiser?
Here's what the NYT had to say about Amazon's use of Orwell statement about paperbacks:
When Orwell wrote that line, he was celebrating paperbacks published by Penguin, not urging suppression or collusion. Here is what the writer actually said in The New English Weekly on March 5, 1936: "The Penguin Books are splendid value for sixpence, so splendid that if the other publishers had any sense they would combine against them and suppress them."
Re: We all moved to sharepoint.
@ Headley_Grange: "Amazon are happy to make fractions of a penny profit on massive throughput."
30% of $10 is hardly fractions of a penny.
The real question that authors, publishers and readers should be asking Amazon is why there isn't a fixed transaction charge for selling an e-book. It doesn't cost Amazon any more to sell a $3 e-book than a $30 e-book, so why should Amazon take a bigger cut from the more expensive e-book?
Google's 'right to be forgotten': One rule for celebs, another for plebs
Re: Makes sense actually...
If the "disclaimer" is meaningless, then why bother posting it at all?
The "disclaimer" isn't about alerting searchers that the results they see might be different if they try google.com instead of google.cc-tld, it's about getting the political message out there that google objects to ordinary plebs having a right to control the picture that google paints of them.
The whole malarkey about "delinking" articles is just more FUD - web pages aren't being unlinked or managed in any way by google - the only thing that is being changed is the index for a particular search term - not a web page, something that google does all the time whenever it tweaks it's algorithms, and it damn well doesn't do anything to alert webmasters that their web pages will be affected when that happens!

British Lords: Euro 'right to be forgotten' ruling 'unreasonable and unworkable'
Google is doing something with my name that impacts on me (returning a somewhat arbitrary list of links to web pages that refer to me by name). It makes sense to me that Google has a responsibility to respond to my concerns, and where my concerns are reasonable, change the way it handles my name, by altering the list that it generates in response to a search on my name. (I will grant that the definition of "reasonable concern" is a matter for debate).
The fact that some negative information about me exists is not the problem. The problem occurs when that negative information is presented without context in a way that has an inordinately negative effect. There is no question that Google has the technology and the wherewithal to change the results that are returned in response to a search for my name, the only question is what are the rules under which such changes should be made.
A simple thought experiment
Purely as a thought experiment, consider a law that banned searching by personal names entirely. It's immediately obvious that that would be fairly trivial to implement (with edge cases for certain names, but this is just a thought experiment) simply by filtering the index, something that every search engine does all the time. It obviously wouldn't involve the wholesale deletion of documents from the web, because the documents would still all be there, all findable by the hundreds or thousands of other words and phrases that make up the document.
Would this "break the web"? It might have an impact on a tiny subset of users who actually search for peoples names, but most of us would never even notice, because we don't do that very often, and even when we do search a persons name, it wouldn't really matter that much to us if we couldn't. It would obviously help with the privacy concerns that some people have, and it might negatively affect c-list celebrities. But it's hard to see that it would really make that much difference to the world as we know it, once way or the other, so it would cost the ordinary web user practically nothing, but it would be considered useful by the small subset of users that are damaged by the blunt-force indexing of their name that we get today.
After conducting this thought experiment, are you still convinced that a much more narrowly focused change that allows an ordinary user some control how a search engine handles their own name will be such a disaster for the Web? Yes, the details of how much control a user can have needs to be worked out, but the Googles of this world have tackled far harder issues than this.
"vague, ambigupus and unhelpful criteria"
"It is wrong in principle to leave search engines themselves the task of deciding whether to delete information or not, based on vague, ambiguous and unhelpful criteria".
Here's an idea - how about coming up with clear, unambiguous and helpful criteria to give citizens some control over the way they are portrayed by search engines!
It is actually a good thing that the initial ruling was not overly prescriptive, because we need a degree of dialog between a number of different parties, representing commercial, government and societal viewpoints on this issue, about how best to deliver on the principle that the ECJ has described. This will take time to work out, but the principle that each citizen has a right to their good name, and that that will impact how search engines respond to searches ON THAT NAME, will seem like common sense, and that it has absolutely nothing to do with deleting articles from the web.
Indie ISP to Netflix: Give it a rest about 'net neutrality' – and get your checkbook out
Re: @Al Jones
Netflix is helping Lariat.net by providing content that is enticing enough that people want to sign up to Lariat.net so that they can get access to Netflix. The money that that new user pays splits about 80-20 in Lariat.nets favor.
There's no question that delivery of broadband to more widely dispersed populations, further from exchange points has different economies than delivering service in denser urban environments. But as I said, that's Lariat.net's business model, not Netflix's business model.
By the way, I should have pointed out that I don't even have a Netflix subscription.
Let me get this straight. Customers are asking Lariat whether Lariat will give them decent access to Netflix in exchange for paying a monthly subscription that is probably considerably more than the customer is paying Netflix, and it's Netflix's fault that the answer is no?
It's not clear whether Mr Glass is losing customers because they're switching to other ISPs that can deliver what he can't, or whether he's the only game in town, and he's complaining that his users can't get decent Netflix access because the population of Wyoming is too spread out to get decent bandwidth cheaply. But Netflix business model is working for Netflix - it doesn't have to work for lariat.net
Researcher sat on critical IE bugs for THREE YEARS

Mozilla fixes CRITICAL security holes in Firefox, urges v31 upgrade
Re: firefox ESR updated too
Years ago I discovered that I could use a Firefox Extension to put my tabs down the left hand side of the screen. I can see the full title for 30-odd tabs at a time, and on a 1920x1080 screen, the one thing I'm not short of is room for a 2 inch column of tabs.
I've never made the switch to putting my Windows taskbar on the side of the screen, but for browsers, this single feature has made Firefox so "sticky" that there's no moving away from it. My only reaction to "Tabs on Top" is Why?
There's NOTHING on TV in Europe – American video DOMINATES
Re: Another breakthrough from the centre for establishing the obvious.
A country with a population of 300 million that absolutely refuses to broadcast any "foreign muck" on the mainstream channels*. They'll buy in a series and re-make it, but they won't broadcast the original. You can understand their reluctance with something like Taggart, for instance, that even some BBC viewers might have needed subtitles for, but when it comes to "police procedurals", for example, there are plenty of BBC and ITV series that would more than hold their own against their US equivalents, but they will never be seen on US TV, except on PBS stations. Even "niche"channels like the Food Channel won't show the likes of the Great British Bake Off, even though there's nothing in it that would be a turn-off for that channels typical audience.

Amazon France routes around free shipping ban with €0.01 charge
Re: Booksellers do deserve protection
"Online selling, however, has done more to protect niche publishing. "
I'm not sure that I'd agree with that. For a start, Amazon is pretty useless at categorizing books (apparently, it doesn't need to be good at it, because it has made zero effort to improve it's search engine). So finding that niche is often harder on Amazon, than in a bookstore (especially a specialist bookstore that deals with that particular niche).
And in the case of France, French language publishing is also a (fairly large) niche - protecting French Bookstores may also be a factor in protecting French language publishing over the long term.
Amazon has certainly made self-publishing easier, which is definitely advantageous for certain types of non-fiction niches, as well as for fiction, where a certain gold-rush mentality exists, with lots of stuff thrown out there with the hope (or for the more deluded, the expectation) of wealth and fame.
But there's no curation, which makes finding the worthwhile stuff harder.

FCC commish: We don't need no steenkin' net neutrality rules
"Broadband providers would be expected to report on every aspect of their practices and services, including metrics like jitter and packet corruption, which are unlikely to be meaningful to the average consumer," the Republican duo assert.
"Expensive and burdensome reports that add no measurable consumer benefit are exactly the type of regulatory overreach that cost-benefit analysis is meant to prevent."
I can assure you that the average consumer wouldn't be able to make head nor tail of the regulatory reports that the Pharma, AgriFood, Auto, and Power Generation industries are required to file, but that's certainly not an argument that we don't need to regulate these industries.
(I deliberately left out the Financial industry, because they don't even understand the reports that they file).

That auditing idea might pick up "honest mistakes" (!) but if a CA was deliberately generating bogus certs, then they presumably would deliberately exclude that particular cert from a self-published audit list of certs, so you might end up with a false sense of security, if people were actually depending on this type of auditability of CAs.
Verizon points more fingers at Netflix: It's YOUR pals slowing data
Netflix isn't delivering their service over an ADSL connection in Zimbabwe - the congestion isn't occurring at the Netflix servers, it's occurring at the gateways where Verizon connects to the rest of the internet.
Verizon customers aren't paying Verizon $50/month to access Verizon's webmail servers, they're paying to get access to, and download content on Netflix, Youtube, Facebook and other 3rd party content, and they are typically consuming far, far more content/bandwidth than they are sending out.
(On a side note, Verizon's own website for paying my FiOS bill only is unquestionably the slowest, clunkiest website that I have to deal with on a regular basis - it's not hard for me to believe that Verizon are simply not capable of running an ISP efficently).
Presto! After Supreme Court loss, Aereo says it's a cable company now
Being allowed to replace the original broadcast ads would be particularly interesting if they replaced the constant 3 minute ad-breaks with 1 second ad-breaks for programs that were recorded to be watched later. Their potential demographic would probably pay more for such a service, if Aereo could pull it off, than they could earn by placing their own ads in the stream.
$10/month with traditional ads, $15 with "blip" ads!

Sonoma 4th of July FireworksWritten by Administrator on 2008-07-05 09:24:30
Happy 4th of July! Got back from the Sonoma 4th of July Fireworks a few hours ago and decided to put up the video of it because I enjoyed it so much. Unfortunately I did not make it to the parade in the morning or to the festivities on the Sonoma Plaza. However we dropped right into a parking spot on the west side of the field in back of the The General's Daughter restaurant with ease. The fireworks display was old school and great! A nice long show with a great finale.
Saw the Santa Rosa Fireworks display aka Red, White & Boom on Friday and it was excellent this year. The grand finale was exceptional. For those of you that couldn't make it to see fireworks yet, there is still hope. The Monte Rio Parade of Lights and July 4th Fireworks is a one of a kind event, which takes place today, Saturday. On Sunday, yes Sunday, at dusk Guerneville fireworks over main street. There's still time for a great time this July 4th weekend.

Posted September 19, 2013 on AP on Fox
Darren Sproles says Tampa Bay's Dashon Goldson delivered a dirty hit when the defensive back was penalized for a blow to the Saints' running back's head. Sproles has watched replays of the hit and says Goldson has a history of delivering ''dirty'' hits, adding, ''He tried to hurt me on the play, but he didn't.'' Goldson was fined $100,000 for the personal foul, which was called on an incomplete pass over the middle. Goldson also was initially suspended for a game, then reinstated on appeal. He has said he's an aggressive player, but never intends to hurt anybody. As for Goldson's suspension being lifted, Sproles says he tries not to worry about things that are out of his control.

Networks, whether superfast mobile broadband, wifi or a combination of both, are helping add pizzazz to new mobile products as the rapid evolution in smartphone and tablet design slows to a trickle.
The world's fastest smartphone, new "phablets" - sized between a phone and tablet - and small tablets optimized to watch video and run multiple applications on 4G mobile networks were making the biggest splash at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Networks are also enabling millions of other devices, from coffee makers to bicycles and cars to homes, to become "smart".
Etisalat has joined the Jasper Wireless-powered M2M alliance that includes a number of leading international operators.
The operator's membership was announced during this week's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and means the alliance now comprises eight players, including an operator from the Middle East for the first time.
Etisalat (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) was already a customer of Jasper Wireless (Mountain View, USA), whose Control Center platform is a core component of the M2M alliance.
Swedish operator Ericsson has signed an agreement with German software company SAP for the joint marketing and sale of cloud-based M2M services to enterprises around the world.
The partnership will combine Ericsson's M2M platform expertise with enterprise services from SAP (Walldorf, Germany) and is designed to overcome some of the barriers to the adoption of M2M technology.
PayPal launched a European version of its PayPal Here mobile payments service for small merchants on Thursday as the online payments division of eBay Inc steps up competition with rivals, including Square Inc.
PayPal (San Jose, USA) unveiled a new device, about the size of a smartphone, that allows small merchants to accept credit and debit cards under a more-stringent and complex system in Europe known as Chip and PIN.
The gadget connects to a new PayPal app that merchants can run on Apple Inc (Cupertino, USA) iPhones and Android-based smartphones.
German payment systems provider Wirecard said on Monday it had been chosen by Vodafone to introduce the British mobile operator's mobile payment system.
The Vodafone (Newbury, UK) payment service will be rolled out internationally from this year, Wirecard (Aschheim, Germany) said in a statement.
(Reporting by Christoph Steitz)
Rostelecom hopes mobile broadband will offset declines in its core fixed-line calls business as it seeks a greater share of Russia's increasingly competitive telecoms market, CEO Alexander Provotorov told Reuters.
The state-controlled former long-distance call monopoly was beefed up in 2011 through a merger with several regional operators to challenge private players in more lucrative market segments such as mobile, broadband and pay TV.
VimpelCom has struck a deal with Microsoft and Nokia that will allow its customers to buy digital content from the Windows Phone store via their mobile accounts.
The operator says the cost of any application, game or music will either be deducted from a customer's prepaid card or added to the monthly bill.
The mobile telecoms industry is facing a $9.2 billion shortfall in backhaul investments as operators continue to make access-network improvements while neglecting the other crucial part of their infrastructure.
Such is the finding of Strategy Analytics in a new report commissioned by Tellabs, which sells backhaul equipment to operators.
The market-research company says that operators will face a new "mobile capacity crunch" by 2017 as a result of growing internet traffic.
Finnish phone maker Nokia said on Tuesday it was protesting against a tax investigation in India, a crucial market, in the latest dispute involving a foreign company's tax.
Nokia (Helsinki, Finland) said it has not yet received any information on potential claims resulting from the investigation that started in January.
BlackBerry named two wireless industry veterans to an expanded board of directors on Thursday, seeking to allay some investor concern around the level of industry experience it has on its board.
The smartphone maker has struggled in the last three years, bleeding market share to nimbler rivals with faster and snazzier devices.
Shareholders reelected its board nominees at the last annual meeting in Waterloo, Ontario in July. But some investors said they disapproved of the board's performance and the percentage of withheld votes for its long-time directors jumped sharply.

as some of you know i am doing my first brew today and i have been reading this forum like all day lol but i have noticed alot of people talking about blow offs. I dont have onefor my primary all i have is the regular 6.5 gal bucket with an air lock. with brewing a belgian tripel should i be worried about blow offs?
all depends on headspace in the fermentor, if you're using a bucket, probably wont happen, in a carboy/better bottle, decent chance. I just had my first blowoff on my third batch, rigging up a tube is pretty easy, I just took apart my 3 piece airlock and fitted some 5/8 inch tubing to the stem piece, dropped the other end in a bowl of water/iodophor.

Is the traditional German bakery finished?
- nofunlatte Jun 4, 2014 09:50 AM
Goodness, I hope not. It has long been my contention that German breads are some of the best in the world (and I would sure love a Butterbrezel . Unfortunately, it seems that time and convenience may be helping to make the traditional bakery a rarity.
The mediocre continues to drive out the good. The same trend exists in this country, where, with some exceptions, supermarket "bakery departments" are driving the local bake shops out of business, and only boutique bake-to-order shops turning out special occasion cakes and high-priced cupcakes can survive.
Artisan bakers are still working out there in many cosmopolitan areas, but even they have an uphill struggle to compete with Ecce Panis "Bake at Home" products and "bakery-cafe" chains (think Panera for a higher-quality example).
It's really a shame that Americans (I mean US folks) have embraced such mediocre food choices. Many of the great places have closed due to our acceptance of the "meh." Your thread title made me think of the once great German bakery in Chicago, Lutz. For generations it was one of the main go-to's for the most incredible pastries, wedding cakes, etc. They had a cafe where one could get lovely lunches not to mention desserts. Sadly they closed several years ago.
re: ChefJune
In this case the article is talking about German bakeries in Germany. Maybe the US is at fault on some level - but not the direct problem
re: cresyd
I guess it would do me some good to read the article before I commented.
re: jpc8015
Another quick mention in the article is also that baguette consumption in France is on the downswing.
While I get the idea of worrisome trends of traditional cuisine not being as popular - I wonder how much "globalization" is the culprit. There are growing populations in France and Germany where their background is not French or German many generations back (if any) and so the food sought out or most prized is not traditional French or German. Or it's just another case of the quick and cheap replacing the slower and more expensive.
re: ChefJune
Excellent German and/or Jewish bakeries flourished where I grew up in NY decades ago. Most are long-gone, and the bakeries near me in the Boston area, where I've lived most of my life, never compared.
I have to admit that some of the best breads I've had since leaving Long Island are the multigrain and the roasted garlic loaves baked in-house at Costco. The roasted garlic is an excellent stand-in for the onion rye of my childhood. Too bad - I'd much prefer it if I could get breads like that at a local independent bakery.
re: ChefJune
I grew up with Lutz's pastries so sad to hear they've closed but not surprised the last time I was home to Chicago was 6 years ago at that time the family had already sold it,and I could tell the difference in the cakes.
Haven't had any cakes like their's since.
re: linguafood
Years ago I worked in one of the few supermarket chains in my area which still had a mostly scratch bakery. I learned the craft from two older men who taught me everything they knew -- not just bread, but also pastries, decorating cakes, you name it. One took early retirement when the chain was bought out by a bigger chain with a semi-national presence because, as he said, "That's the end of the line as far as actual baking is concerned and I refuse to go that route."
I now work for another chain and it's true, we don't do any scratch baking. Frozen dough is brought in, thawed overnight, and I shape it into different loaves come morning. Muffin batter is already frozen pre-deposited into paper cups that must be thawed before baking. All of our "artisan" bread is par-baked.
From a corporate standpoint it makes sense, and I get that. OTOH it sometimes leaves me wondering if I still am truly a baker.
re: xo_kizzy_xo
I hate to be the one who brings you the bad news...you are not a baker anymore.
re: jpc8015
I know. However, my official position is still listed as "baker". One still does need some finesse to shape dough into salable product :)
The other thing is, even as dumbed down everything has become, there are very few takers for any open position. It's not just with my chain -- it's everywhere.
re: xo_kizzy_xo
I know that's very true...my co-worker's family owns a tiny French bakery and they have had struggles hiring anyone willing to work the weird hours, even in the midst of the economic downturn. When they do get someone, they leave for the chains because of the benefits.
re: coney with everything
Yep :nodding: I've worked with several decorators who had had their own shops and/or home businesses, and all of them came to work for us at various times. The problem now -- as with almost all retail corporations -- is getting enough hours to qualify for the benefits. Not many of them hire FT anymore, and if they do, it's almost always for management.
For several years I worked overnight shifts. I wasn't crazy about them, but I took them because I was guaranteed I'd never lose my position. Nowadays I can only think of a couple of places which might still have overnight bakers. If they don't, they probably go in around 4AM like I do.
It makes me wonder what's going to happen down the line...
I'm surprised that they didn't mention the main problem behind bakeries losing business--the ridiculous opening hours of small shops in most of Germany. It's impossible for working people to buy anything since most are already closed by the time you leave the office. And Sunday? Forget about it!
re: foodslut
Actually, business hours have changed quite a bit -- not sure when you were there last.
Sundays, however, are still closed. People somehow manage just fine.
re: linguafood
When I was a child in the 1950's, and still when I last lived in NY in the 70's, Sunday was THE big day for bakeries. People either went out early to fetch breakfast pastries/rolls, or after church to buy dessert for Sunday dinner, or both. Not sure if that's still the case.

The fun really does lie in the multiplayer, because the drunken laughs my friends and I have had with this game have been fantastic and they went on and on into the early hours.
While it's not as polished as most modern offerings, it's priced to sell and still raises grins like nothing else.
It may take a while for you to get into Worms Forts. I didn't really like it at first but like a tapeworm, it eventually grew on me.
Forts Under Siege might have enough reward on offer but the series is still relying on gamers to meet it halfway by investing ample time and patience in learning its demanding intricacies. [Dec 2004, p.112]
Suffers the pains incurred through fundamental flaws that impact the gameplay quality and the overall experience a gamer can have.
And now, dressed up in this sorry state, trying to excuse itself like a dad in a night club, there's not even that to defend it. [May 2006, p.97]
It barely raises a smile, reducing most gamers to a grim comatose zomebie-state, the only sign a life now a dull flicker of hate in their glazed, cold eyes. [Christmas 2004, p.107]
