- Expectations Exceeded...would buy again! Review by "U ought to be
The black and gold stars (not yellow) cascade centerpieces were perfect for our party. We used three of these centerpieces, needs fluffing, some of the stars were bent, reshapes without too much difficulty. Base is sturdy and secure even though the A/C fan in the fellowship hall was blowing on them most of the evening. Great Value!!!

- Very nice affordable centerpiece Review by Lisa
Big bang for the buck! A little flimsy, but for the price, they looked great! We added a small black plastic plate to the base to add some color to the foundation which is clear.

Further Analysis of Higgs Boson Data Reconfirms Standard Model of Physics
For a subatomic particle that remained hidden for nearly 50 years, the Higgs boson is turning out to be remarkably well behaved.
For a subatomic particle that remained hidden for nearly 50 years, the Higgs boson is turning out to be remarkably well behaved.
Element 117, a super-heavy atom with a long half-life is, according to an international team of scientists, real and ready to take its place on the Periodic Table. Scientists actually confirmed the existence and lifetime of the element in 2010 thanks to experiments conducted by teams in Russia and the U.S. However, now researchers in Germany and the U.S. have created the actual element, which is reportedly 40% heavier than an atom of lead, according to a report in Phys.org.
Nearly five decades ago, Peter Higgs sent physicists on a chase to find a particle that gives the universe its mass. Today, at age 84, he, along with physicist François Englert, received the Nobel Prize in Physics for their work. The video above comes from the day last July when scientists at the European Organizations for Nuclear Research (CERN) made the announcement that they believed they had finally found that particle, the Higgs Boson.
Have you ever wished someone would explain particle physics to you with help from the sweet sounds of Adele? Look no further. "Rolling in the Higgs," a parody of the Adele hit "Rolling in the Deep," is the first video posted to a new YouTube channel called A Capella Science. SEE ALSO: Higgs Boson: The Musical! The creator, Tim Blais, is a self-professed harmony addict who is currently working on a master's degree in theoretical physics.
So what is this Higgs boson thing all about again? The NASA-approved cartoon above tries to explain. Created by PHD Comics, the video features two scientists giving an overview of the so-called "God particle" as an illustrator attempts to visualize the concepts. The gist is that there are untold numbers of particles, but scientists only know of 12. With the CERN supercollider, scientists can annihilate particles and then reconstruct them in a new way to see what's going on at that subatomic level.
After a September study suggested neutrinos can travel faster than light - a finding that would shake Einstein's theory of special relativity to the core - a more recent study shows that the test's results must have been wrong. The scientists included in the OPERA experiment, conducted at the Gran Sasso laboratory near Rome, said some of the neutrinos beamed to them from the CERN research center in Switzerland traveled faster than the speed of light.

December 30,2012Woman in custody
for subway fatality
NEW YORK A woman is in custody in the death of a man who was shoved in front of a speeding subway train, and she made statements implicating herself, New York City police said Saturday.
Detectives questioned her but arent releasing the 31-year-old suspects name until she is formally charged, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said in a brief statement. Among other things, investigators were arranging for witnesses to positively identify the woman in custody as the attacker, police said.
Sunando Sen, a 46-year-old Queens resident who was born in India and ran a printing shop, died Thursday night when a woman who had been muttering to herself on a train platform in Queens suddenly knocked him on the tracks as a train entered the station.
The woman fled after the attack. Police released security camera video showing her running from the station.
The attack was the second time this month that someone was pushed to their death in a New York City subway station. A homeless man was arrested in early December and accused of shoving a man in front of a train in Times Square. He is awaiting trial, and claimed he acted in self-defense.
School shooting:
Lawyer seeks suit
A lawyer whos asking to sue Connecticut for $100 million on behalf of a 6-year-old Newtown school shooting survivor who heard violence over the schools intercom system says the potential claim is about improving school security, not money.
Its about living in a world thats safe, New Haven attorney Irving Pinsky told The Associated Press on Saturday. The answer is about protecting the kids.
Pinsky asked this week to sue the state, which has immunity against most lawsuits unless it gives a party permission to go forward with a claim.
Pinksys client, whom he calls Jill Doe in the claim, sustained emotional and psychological trauma and injury on Dec. 14 after gunman Adam Lanza forced his way into Sandy Hook Elementary School and gunned down 20 children and six adults inside in one of the deadliest school shootings in U.S. history.
The child heard conversations, gunfire and screaming over Sandy Hooks intercom after someone in the office apparently switched on the system, according to the claim. Pinsky said Saturday he didnt know whether his client saw anyone die.
The state Board of Education, Department of Education and state education commissioner failed to protect the child from foreseeable harm, including by failing to provide a safe school setting, the filing said.
It also said the parties failed to review and carefully scrutinize annual strategic school profile reports from the local school district and Sandy Hook Elementary as well as other submissions with respect to student safety and emergency response planning and protocol.
It says the parties also failed to require the school and local Board of Education to formulate and implement an effective student safety emergency response plan.
Pinsky said Saturday he didnt want to reveal more about the 6-year-old or details about her experience during the shooting because of privacy concerns.
The attorney said he hasnt gotten a reply from the state yet. The Hartford Courant first reported the filing.

News : Sun TV wins Hyderabad IPL franchise
Features : The fall of Deccan Chargers
Teams: Deccan Chargers | India
The Sun TV Network's successful bid for the Hyderabad franchise of the IPL on Thursday has led to a quandary over an accurate answer to a simple question: has IPL has appreciated or depreciated in value?
Sun TV, a media and entertainment conglomerate which primarily caters to an audience in the four southern languages of India, paid Rs 425.25 crore (approx US$79.4 million) for the Hyderabad franchise for five years. The annual breakdown of Rs 85.05 crore for the successful bid amounts almost half of what the Sahara Group paid for the creation of Pune franchise in 2010. Yet, Sun TV's bid is almost double of what Deccan Chronicle Holdings Ltd paid for the Hyderabad franchise over the previous five years. Deccan Chargers had signed a deal worth approximately Rs 428 crore ($107.01 million at Rs 40 per USD) for a 10-year period when the IPL was first launched in 2008; Sun TV Network would be paying almost as much over the next five years.
"The price that we paid is a very attractive price, because the last deal [the Sahara Group's] was almost at Rs 170 crore per annum and we got it for 50% of the last transaction price," SL Narayanan, chief financial officer of Sun TV Network, said after signing the franchise agreement. "We have a fair understanding of the inflows and expenses; we have done our maths and this is going to be a very attractive deal for us."
While the buyers chose to hold up the figures of the 2010 Pune bid as a comparison, the sellers used the original Hyderabad franchise model as their standard measure. BCCI president N Srinivasan said the outcome of the bidding process had worked in the board's favour. "If you see, this is twice the value of Deccan Chargers," Srinivasan said. "If you take into account the sharing of central rights compared to the earlier expansion of franchise, you will find that this bid represents a higher value; it is a very good value.
"More importantly, it is a very credible franchise owner who is in the media, so they will add a lot of value to the league. That is something to be very happy about."
When the IPL began in 2008 and even when the two new franchises were bid for in 2010, the tenure of the contract was always said to run for ten years. The Sun TV contract has only been signed for five. What had kept the BCCI from offering a 10-year franchise agreement for the new, remodelled Hyderabad franchise? "That is because the original eight franchises have ten-year contracts so five years are left [in their contracts]," Srinivasan said. "After 10 years, the revenue sharing [agreement] is that you don't pay a franchise fee but you pay 20% of your income, that is consistent for all of them."
Pune have a 10-year contract despite the fact that they they came into the IPL late, in 2010. Referring to this, Srinivasan said: "That [Pune's terms] was different, but we've tried to become a lot more consistent now. At the moment, the Pune franchise, he tried to explain, "gets 80% of the central revenue, but from five years onwards the other franchises get 60% so there is a difference in the income. You have to factor that in."
The BCCI has also looked to address the issues around the future of the Chargers' players. "The franchise now has the choice to retain whoever they want; they have to decide by October 31," Srinivasan said. "As far as the players' interests are concerned, they are completely protected and they have also been paid for the last year [IPL 5]."
Narayanan confirmed this: "What the BCCI has said is that we could retain the entire team. We also have opportunities to get more players.
"There are outstanding cricketing names here like Dale Steyn, Kumar Sangakkara, Cameron White, JP Duminy, Shikhar Dhawan and Ishant Sharma [in the squad]; it is a great team but we will decide on the actual composition of the team and support staff over the next few days."
Meanwhile, a PIL has been filed by a social worker in the Guwahati High Court on Thursday, challenging the BCCI's overlooking of Guwahati in the list of cities for which bids were invited. Not having Guwahati was an "act of discrimination by a body which is recognised by the government of India" the petitioner's counsel said. The BCCI tender had invited bids with respect to 12 cities: Ahmedabad, Cuttack, Dharamsala, Hyderabad, Indore, Kanpur, Kochi, Nagpur, Noida, Rajkot, Ranchi and Vizag.

Bridge Bites: Wake-up call
Date: January 25, 2012
by: Observer Staff
On defense, when leading a suit, we follow certain conventions such as "top of a sequence" or "fourth best," all the better to help partner figure out our holding in the suit. But, once in a while, we lie. Consider this deal:
Against 4 (spades) our partner leads the 2 (hearts), and we win the trick with the Ace. Have you figured out what partner's holding in the Heart suit? Of course not, it's impossible,;the lead makes no sense whatsoever!Partner's Two is clearly non-standard; it cannot be fourth-best when he is known from the bidding to have at least a six-card suit. What's he up to? He's issuing a wake-up call, requesting us to think outside the box. He doesn't want us routinely to continue Hearts; he has something else in mind. What could that be? No doubt he can ruff a minor suit! But which one? Surely not Clubs; that would give Declarer seven of them. Partner must be void in Diamonds!
North's "alarm-clock lead," as it is known, alerts us to the winning defense. A Diamond is ruffed at Trick 2, then a Club is returned to our Ace, after which there is a second ruff. Down one! Those alarm-clock leads won't come up often, but they are great fun when they do!

February 23, 2003
While TNA is having difficulties finding a new home for Impact Wrestling, Eric Bischoff is showing off his knack for getting television networks to give him air time. WGN has announced that they have ordered the first season of Outlaw Country, which is being produced by Bischoff and longtime business partner Jason Hervey. The show will be about the war between sets of brothers on different sides of the law in a Missouri town.
November 8, 2014
For years, Eric Bischoff has been criticized by fans for handing out gigantic guaranteed contracts to performers. The former president of WCW has finally explained the cause behind that. Bischoff revealed in a recent interview that the company did not have a sophisticated licensing and merchandising deal in place, so the performers were not able to make money on the side like guys in WWE do.
October 13, 2014
During a recent interview, Eric Bischoff revealed that Hulk Hogan did not take too well to the idea of the nWo when it was first presented to him by the former president of WCW. Hogan was adamant against turning heel because he felt that it would destroy his brand. Bischoff eventually convinced him to take the chance, and it ended up being one of the best stories in wrestling history.
October 4, 2014
Rumors have spread like wildfire about the possibility of Eric Bischoff joining Jeff Jarrett in his new Global Force Wrestling promotion. The speculations were started when a picture surfaced online of the two of them, along with Karen Jarrett, hanging out together. Since Bischoff has some stroke in Hollywood, a partnership between the two sides could greatly benefit GFW.
September 21, 2014
There are those that believe that Eric Bischoff could have been the one to save TNA from their struggles in obtaining a new television contract from Spike TV. Bischoff has a good amount of power with the television networks since he has a couple of shows on the air. He also has a better understanding of wrestling than United Talent Agency, the company currently negotiating on behalf of Dixie Carter, so he would be able to sell the product even better.
August 5, 2014
During a recent podcast interview between Steve Austin and Vince Russo, the topic of the Montreal Screwjob came up. Russo gave specific details about what went down between Vince McMahon, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. Austin then finished the discussion by stating that he had no prior knowledge of the incident going down, but that he thinks the decision by McMahon and Russo was the right one. The business had to be protected from Hart and Eric Bischoff.
July 3, 2014
An interesting conversation took place between Eric Bischoff and Steve Austin during a podcast recently. The topic was Bischoff firing Austin from WCW. Both men told their side of the story. Bischoff admitted that things were pretty unorganized backstage, and Austin stated that he would have fired himself as well if he were in charge of WCW.
May 12, 2014
A status update on Twitter from Steve Austin, who revealed that he was visited by Eric Bischoff today. The two had a history of backstage heat towards one another because of how Bischoff treated Austin when the two of them were working in WCW together. It appears that the relationship has been mended.
May 6, 2014
A status update from Twitter by Steve Austin, where the former world heavyweight champion mocked the method in which Eric Bischoff fired him from WCW.
May 5, 2014
There have been plenty of rumors floating around about Eric Bischoff at the moment, as speculations are that the executive producer was going to be leaving TNA once his contract expired this summer. He has not been working on a daily basis with the company over the last couple of months. Bischoff has remained secretive about his upcoming plans.
May 1, 2014
During a recent interview, Bully Ray revealed that he has been receiving some interest from Hollywood as of late. The former TNA World Heavyweight Champion also revealed that he shot some scenes for See Dad Run, an original series from Nick at Nite that stars Scott Baio and is executive produced by Eric Bischoff. No word yet on when the episode will air.
April 23, 2014
A fan on Twitter asked Eric Bischoff if he would be interested in making a return to WWE, and the former on screen general manager replied that he has not closed the door on that possibility. While the company does not currently have any plans on bringing Bischoff back, the belief is that people within WWE have not closed the door on their side, either.

"Roddy Piper is a deranged old fool. He got bitch slapped to the floor. Hulk Hogan, Sean Waltman, Scott Hall and Eric Bischoff were in the room. Let it go, Rod. Pod cast invite?" - Kevin Nash telling a backstage story about Roddy Piper and mockingly asks for an invitation to do a podcast interview
April 20, 2014
"David Arquette is his own animal. As much heat as he ever took, for him, all the money he made for that pay per view when he busted me over the head with the guitar and Jeff Jarrett took the world title, the money he made, he gave to Melanie Pillman. When he pinned Eric Bischoff, not me, and I will go on record as saying that was the biggest clusterfuck ever, and it never should have happened, but it did. That being said, that was the booking committee. It was not Arquette, and every fan that has ever roasted him, should dip their own ass in boiling oil because everyone of you that has buried Arquette, if put in the same position, you would have jumped through a hoop of burning oil to do the same shit. That's why when everyone busts his balls on that, I just want to smack someone. I'm like, "really, you, Marko Mark? You would have died for that." - Diamond Dallas Page defending David Arquette for winning a championship
March 24, 2014
Garett Bischoff has grown frustrated with wrestling fans, so he took to Twitter to post this message about haters. His father Eric Bischoff was quick to reply and provide advice. He stated that he made a fortune manipulating haters. Said that it was fun, easy and profitable.
March 11, 2014
"For the record, I am not making any personal appearances at any events. Someone is spreading some bullshit suggesting that I am. Save your money. I don't know who started this nonsense, but I have not had a conversation with anyone about any appearances." - Eric Bischoff warning fans
March 6, 2014
Much speculations have been made about the status of Eric Bischoff and TNA. During a recent interview, Dixie Carter shed some light on that topic. She stated that he and his BHE production company are still the executive producers of Impact Wrestling. Bischoff is no longer as involved in the day to day operations, but he does still have an interest in the company.
March 1, 2014
In the story line, Eric Bischoff was the one that invented the Elimination Chamber match. However, in reality, though, it has now been revealed that Triple H was indeed the person backstage that came up with the idea. Bischoff acknowledged that through his Twitter account, and HHH stated it publicly in an interview for WWE.
February 21, 2014
As the creator and executive producer of the show, Eric Bischoff has quite a bit of creative control over See Dad Run, a surprisingly popular first run sitcom on Nick at Nite. He has used that power to cast his nephew Greyson Bacal in a role. The relationship was actually revealed by Garett Bischoff on Twitter.
February 20, 2014
While a lot of fans blame Eric Bischoff for everything that took place in WCW, Scotty Riggs defends his former boss. Riggs recently mentioned that Bischoff did not have the final say in everything within the company. He had a lot of executives above him to answer to, and they sometimes forced things upon him.
February 18, 2014
A lot of action took place in the main event of Money in the Bank 2014. Fans went crazy as they saw creative signature spots from Randy Orton, Sheamus, John Cena, Roman Reigns, Alberto Del Rio, Kane and Bray Wyatt. However, it was Cena, much to the dismay of online WWE fans, who climbed the ladder and captured the heavyweight championship.
June 29, 2014
To calm down the Money in the Bank 2014 audience, WWE opted to go with another divas match as a filler. Layla El and Summer Rae battled in a match, where Fandango served as the special guest referee. Fans were so disinterested in the segment that a CM Punk chant broke out. In the end, Layla caught Summer with a kick to gain the pinfall. Layla and Fandango kissed after the match, while a despondent Summer looked on.
June 29, 2014
In a rematch at Money in the Bank 2014, Alexander Rusev was successfully able to conquer Big E Langston again with his submission move. It was the typical match that you would expect from the two. There was a botched spot where Langston speared Rusev to the outside of the ring. However, the two of them more than made up for that by doing a great closing sequence.
June 29, 2014
In a match that was slightly held in higher regards than a filler match, Goldust and Cody Rhodes, who worked under his Stardust gimmick again, defeated Curtis Axel, who was sporting a ridiculous looking singlet, and Ryback. The match was designed to highlight the Stardust character. Since there was a little bit of action after the match, there is a chance that WWE could be continuing this feud.
June 29, 2014
In a very exciting match, Seth Rollins outlasted Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Rob Van Dam and Jack Swagger to capture the briefcase at Money in the Bank 2014. WWE wants to continue the war between Ambrose and the Authority, so they had Kane coming out and providing assistance to Rollins. Despite the heel tactic to win the match, the Rollins victory was actually cheered by a good amount of fans.
June 29, 2014
Since WWE needed a filler segment at Money in the Bank 2014 and wanted to showcase Adam Rose a little bit, he was given a quick match against Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Paul Revere. Match was not really all that noteworthy, and Rose got the win after hitting the Party Foul finishing move. This was a segment that belongs more on Monday Night Raw than a pay per view.
June 29, 2014
Naomi Knight was given a crack at the WWE Divas Championship at Money in the Bank 2014, but it was Paige that walked away as the reigning titleholder after a DDT and a pin. The match was designed to further the eventual split between Naomi and Cameron, who was at ringside and taking glee whenever her tag team partner was in peril against Paige.
June 29, 2014
Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso had their biggest challenge to date when Erick Rowan and Luke Harper challenged them for the WWE tag team championship at Money in the Bank 2014. The twin brothers delivered by retaining the belt. The Usos performed a double superplex on Rowan before finishing him off with consecutive flying splashes from the top rope.
June 29, 2014
In a rather surprising move, WWE had the Shield win convincingly against Evolution. Batista and Randy Orton were the first two performers to be eliminated from the main event match at Payback 2014, but both provided interference for Triple H after their eliminations. After taking a brutal beating, Roman Reigns picked up the win for his team. Many expected Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to be eliminated during the match, but WWE opted to give them a dominant ending.
June 2, 2014
In a match designed to be the buffer between the two main event features at Payback 2014, Paige successfully defended the WWE Divas Championship against Alicia Fox via submission. Afterwards, Alicia continued her story line of going crazy whenever things do not go well for her. The audience reacted more to the post match antics than the actual match.
June 2, 2014
In a segment filled with plenty of interference from Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Luke Rowan and Erick Harper, John Cena was able to defeat Bray Wyatt in a Last Man Standing match at Payback 2014 after Cena put Wyatt through a big black box and covered him with an even heavier box. Rumors have it that WWE will be continuing this feud and something could trigger that on Monday Night Raw this week.
June 2, 2014
At Payback 2014, Wade Barrett successfully defended the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Rob Van Dam after picking up the pin fall victory, thanks to the Bull Hammer. The performers placed some doubt in that finish when it appeared that Barrett had injured his arm while smashing into the corner post after RVD ducked away from the move outside the ring.
June 1, 2014
In a glorified squash match at Payback 2014, Alexander Rusev defeated Big E Langston via submission to continue his push up the ladder in WWE. He was able to slap on the camel clutch after delivering a big kick to Langston. Afterwards, he held the submission move on for a short period of time before Lana instructs him to let go. Rusev should be placed into a new feud this week.
June 1, 2014
In a match designed by WWE to accelerate the split between the brothers, Curtis Axel and Ryback defeated Cody Rhodes and Goldust in the second match of Payback 2014. Ryback picked up the pin fall victory for his team after delivering the Shell Shock to Rhodes. Afterwards, Rhodes told Goldust that he needs to find a better tag team partner for himself.
June 1, 2014
Despite being in the airplane spin for quite a few rotations, Sheamus was able to capture the victory over Antonio Cesaro, who had Paul Heyman with him at ringside, at Payback 2014 by surprising his opponent with a small package. With the win, Sheamus retains the United States Heavyweight Championship and will more than likely be placed in another feud by WWE tomorrow.
June 1, 2014
In a match filled with quite a few over the top spots, Daniel Bryan successfully retained the WWE Championship by defeating Kane at Extreme Rules 2014. A running knee followed by a pin enabled Bryan to get the pin fall victory over Kane. Prior to that spot, Kane was put through a burning table and carried on a forklift, among other things.
May 4, 2014
Since WWE needed a Divas Championship match at Extreme Rules 2014, Paige was given the victory over Tamina Snuka after delivering her submission finisher. The segment was short and quick, providing only a couple of spots outside the ring. It basically served as a pay per view buffer between the steel cage match and the world title match.
May 4, 2014
After suffering a loss at the last pay per view, Bray Wyatt needed a victory over John Cena at Extreme Rules 2014, and he got just that. Wyatt received a heavy dose of interference from Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, but Cena still managed to overcome those odds. As Cena was walking out of the cage, a kid showed up and began singing, which provided enough distraction for Wyatt to hit his Sister Abigail finisher and walk out for the victory.
May 4, 2014
In the most anticipated match at Extreme Rules 2014, the Shield defeated Evolution. Roman Reigns picked up the pin fall victory over Batista after a Superman punch and a spear. Triple H, Randy Orton, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose fought through the audience before Rollins took out all four of them by hurling himself from the elevated stands.
May 4, 2014
The first title change at Extreme Rules 2014 took place when Wade Barrett defeated Big E Langston to capture the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Barrett picked up the pin fall victory after delivering a running Bull Hammer finisher on Langston. A highlight of the pay per view was Langston spearing Barrett from the ring to the floor.

Rise of the Machines: How computers took over the stock market
Re: Radical solutions needed
While I agree with your point about financial services going serious off piste from it's proper role in a capitalist society, a financial transaction tax (FTT) is not the way to bring things back to sanity. Unless you manage to get full global co-operation, then the trades just switch jurisdictions (see Sweden's attempt at this previously) - proper global support for a FTT is harder to get than global support for other changes that will do the job just as well.
Oh and for the HFT supporters out there screaming 'market liquidity, market liquidity' you're wrong - HFT only increases market liquidity in the times where liquidity is not a problem, it doesn't magically increase liquidity when it is drying up because the same fundamentals apply to HFT as do the 'normal' market.

YES, Xbox One DOES need internet, DOES restrict game trading
Not sure this is all MS' fault
I suspect the game publishers are the driving force here - it looks to me like the cost of lost customers outweigh the benefits for MS
And don't forget that parts of this are already happening on the current generation of consoles. I just got Grid 2, which to play online I need to either buy the "VIP pack", or enter the code for a free one they include in the box. If I sell Grid 2 on later, whoever buys it will have to buy access to VIP or only play it offline. The restrictions on XB1 seem to be a logical next step.
Forget tax bills, here's how Google is really taking us all for a ride
Conflating lots of individual problems together
Don't agree with this article at all. AO seems to have tried to bring together all the problems he sees with the Internet economy (in its widest and loosest terms) and try to relate them to one another. Not very convincing.
Not that there aren't serious issues to think about, but really I think he's failed to link them convincingly.
An example is the flat pricing for Internet bandwidth mentioned in he article. It has nothing to do with google or Facebook, and everything to do with the way the ISP market is overly competitive, to the detriment of some consumers.
Ed Miliband brands Google's UK tax avoidance 'WRONG'
Re: Reg readers
The point is that corporation tax is economically inefficient, an that companies don't make money for themselves - they make it for people; through salaries, dividends etc
Tax people properly, and you don't need to mess around with corporation tax, which when you look at it properly is a regressive indirect tax (like VAT, but with more steps between the consumer and the tax). Regressive taxes always hit the poorer hardest - it's just corporation tax is far enough removed that its hard to see the effect
I suspect that most commentards would agree that tax is needed to fund society
Easy, just abolish corporation tax
Economists will tell you it's economically inefficient anyway.
Tax people on their income and wealth (personal taxes can be increased proportionally to make this revenue neutral)- loopholes are easier to close (though not *easy*, just *easier*) and a number of countries have made some good strides towards this anyway (see the start of banking information exchange with Switzerland for example).
Taxing profits is just an indirect tax that we all pay anyway (through higher prices), and poor people tend to pay proportionally more.

Re: Games games games in the UK
While I love a good down vote, you seem to have missed the point of the comments threads?
The whole POINT of them is speculative FUD. Proper information is in the article - uninformed analysis, idiocy (and the ever present numpty called Eadon) is for the comments thread.
Games games games in the UK
I have a PS3 but the lack of backwards compatibility means I'm free to choose between the two as nothing I have at the moment ties me in. I thing they have both missed a trick there, as at least the first versions of the PS3 ran PS2 games.
The TV stuff is mostly irrelevant for the UK as I doubt it will work with Sky (who have 10 million subscribers here don't forget) or Virgin (another few million subscribers), and I can't imagine a very compelling offer for free view channels.
Kinect? Did seem to make an impact on the 360 and it does look better than the ps4 version, but I wonder how many unique purchases it will drive.
I also wonder about how much the streaming video functionality is a differentiator. My suspicion is most people may use it if it is there on the console, but it doesn't drive the sale. Netflix and Lovefilm have kind of sewn that market up (with a few others like blink box) and they're both available pretty widely on consoles, TVs, DVD players etc.
Games is where it's at for me. Hopefully there will be more detail soon about the exclusives - it looked to me like MS always did better on those (gears of war particularly), and given I can't sell my PS3 if I want to keep playing my PS3 games, Sony had better show me something special to keep me.
PS Eadon - go and crawl back under whatever dusty Linux server you emerged from. You're not a gamer, and no one cares you hate Microsoft.

Copyright minister admits: Google has better access to No. 10 than me
Re: Google bribes government officials
No they don't you numpty.
If you have any evidence (and not 'just what everyone knows') then hand it over to the police and they'll happily stamp all over it. But you don't. It's just driven by a uninformed cynicism of politics and government.
Having worked in and around central government for a long time I have a very informed cynicism about it. And bribes are not part of the way that large companies influence ministers and civil servants - there are far far more effective ways that don't relate to money but are all about culture, social networks and control & delivery of information.

Error on statutory instruments in the article...
Constitutional experts frown on the use of statutory instruments where the substantive points should be in primary legislation - they do not frown on the use of statutory instruments per se.
For example, a 'proper' use of them is a bit like ref data in code - things that need to change regularly are best put into a statutory instrument, like the amount paid for certain benefits, or the date of a recurring event. The idea is that you know these things need to change, and you don't want to go through all the phases of amending an Act and tie up acres of parliamentary time.

Apple to end support for original iPhone: report
EDGE? Really?
I seem to remember that O2 had real problems with this as they had to install EDGE specially for the iPhone. One of the reasons I stayed away from the iPhone at first was it didn't have 3G (like other posters, I had a Nokia N95 - what a great phone). I was tethering my phone to my laptop working on a client site at the time and not only did the iPhone not support that at first, EDGE would have been too slow to be useful.
However, O2 are still the only network offering visual voicemail, as they installed it as part of the exclusive deal with Apple. Come one Voda - install visual voicemail!

Londoners in mass test of telly tech savvy as 4G filters mailed out
Re: So London will be saved!!
I've lived inside the M25 in several NW locations since the start of Freeview, and I've never had a decent Freeview signal - it was the reason I first got a sky subscription.
I still can't get a good signal without a booster (still inside the M25), despite having a large aerial on the roof - in fact, it was such a pain I bought an Octo LNB for my sky dish and ran cables from it to the other TVs in the house to get Freesat (or more accurately, Free Sat From Sky or FSFS)
Smart metering will disrupt weather forecasts, warns Met Office
Re: There is more to smart meters...
Such cynicism..... probably justified.....
As I remember, the reason for the 1/2 hour charging is partly to do with enabling spot price tariffs, partly to do with spot price micro-generation calculations and 1/2 hourly quality reads. If the electricity meter is going to be providing 1/2 hourly supply quality information, then you may as well allow it to provide meter reads every 1/2 hour as well.
The network infra companies were planning to put in infrastructure to better monitor quality anyway - although cheaper than smart meters, they would still have been a sizeable chunk of the overall cost. Installing smart meters negates the need for that.
As I understand, the water industry are thinking about tying their meters into the same system (remote reads reported back via the link the electricity meter has), but that's a long way away yet. However, coupled with better infra monitoring it'll really help identify leaks in the network (but they'll still not fix them, just know where they are!)
There is more to smart meters...
... than switching off washing machines.
The idea is not forced switch off, but eventually you'll be able to choose a cheaper tariff that includes this functionality. if you don't want it, then you don't have to have it. It's a bit like the cheaper energy deals that aluminium smelters and other large industrial users have - reduced prices in return for switching off occasionally when demand looks like it might outstrip supply.
There are other uses for smart meters as well, including much better monitoring of the quality and health of the electricity and gas networks. This is something that the national grid and the local infrastructure operators are wanting and planning anyway, so you combine monitoring from meters with monitoring at sub stations, gas interconnects etc and you can better respond to problems and manage increasing number of people choosing micro-generation.
The technologies being considered are interesting - SMS is one of the options, but the problem you have is that some houses have their meters in basements and other places without a mobile signal and you won't always know that until you get to house to install the meter.

Gov report: Actually, evil City traders DIDN'T cause the banking crash
Re: Not sure about the conclusion
As I mention above, there has been some very good thinking on reducing the systemic risk using living wills or other devices to allow an orderly winding down of a bank or two, without putting the whole system at risk. That way you can avoid the moral hazard of being too big to fail - unfortunately they don't seem to be taken forward but gov or regulator.
Conclusion is too simplistic
*desperately dredging up long forgotton finance lectures from Uni*
I do like Tim's articles, but I find the conclusion a little too simplistic, as the third dimension to weigh is the risk of collapse of an institution weighed against the incentives this drives through the system - i.e. if my bank can collapse if I'm reckless, but I know the risk to me is small as I'm too big to fail, then I may continue being an idiot.
Probably the subject of another article, but you get into discussions about living wills and depositor guarantees. Some really interesting things have been proposed around this, but unfortunately the better and more radical proposals have been ignored and the status quo continuation of oligopoly and croney capitalism that seems to have infected the city continues.

I agree that financial services seemed have evolved far beyond their proper use in a capitalist system, but the Robin Hood tax is not the method to use to fix it. Other far cleverer than me (not hard) have written about why - quick google should pull up some interesting stuff

I've various iPods and two iPhones over the last few years (my first iPod in 2005 maybe?), and them having the same connector has meant its never hard to find a charger or connector for music in my house (or my previous car).
However, the change of connector has somewhat killed all that - with more of my work and personal gadgets using micro USB, Apple are losing their stranglehold in my house (hence my previous post).
Apple really have to up their game...
...to stay ahead of the Android pack.
The wife and I both have iPhones (4S and 3GS - her 4S was stolen), and while I'll probably move to whatever the latest iDevice is in the summer (new company phone - can't say better than free phone and free contract) I'll be putting the S4 (and maybe a selection of other Android devices) in front of her in October to see if she wants to leave the Apple walled garden.
Apple are gonna have to up their game to even stay on the list of potential phones to consider to be honest. The iPhone 5 did nothing for me (slightly larger screen than my 4S - meh), and Jelly Bean onwards (admittedly my experience of it comes from a Nexus 7) feels to me a far better OS to use - certainly better than the grid of applications and a halfhearted attempt at notifications in iOS 6.
If the 5S (or whatever its called) only has the same leap over the 5 that the 4S did over the 4, any claims to 'magical', 'revolutionary' or 'amazing' are going to sound pretty hollow.

SRO not useful, but a programme director is...
In my experience, the competence of the SRO doesn't matter in the public sector (and is generally some poor DG press-ganged into the role) but the programme director is absolutely crucial.

DWP denies major IT problems with One Dole To Rule Them All system
Re: same old same old
Yes, there are plenty of IT projects that are fine - you don't hear about them because 'IT system delivers on time and on budget' is a dull headline and no one reports it.
ESA was a big successful one I worked on, along with Steve Dover (mentioned in the article.). He was a real kicker of supplier arses - I bet the programme is poorer for him leaving.
Android 'splits' into the Good and the lovechild of Bad and Ugly
iHaters, you can stop reading this comment now....
In the last couple of weeks I've found one of the benefits of the Apple tight control of hardware is the ability to move back and forwards in phone versions, seemingly without penalty.
The wife's 4S got stolen, so I bought a 3GS off ebay for £70 - plugged it in, did a restore and everything *just worked*. I know there are some apps that will not work on a 3GS, but she didn't have any of them.
I suspect moving from a premium android phone to a budget one off ebay (contract expires in a few months, didn't want to spend £££) would have had more issues with app compatibility.
Interestingly she may choose move to android (maybe the latest Samsung Galaxy) later in the year anyway once her contract expires.

4G in the UK? Why the smart money still says 'Meh'
Re: Killer App suggestion
Fixed wireless is very likely the reason BT got in on the bidding for the 2.6Ghz band. The wise money is on them using it to supplement their fibre to the cabinet broadband rollout.
Mobe networks bag UK 4G for a steal - £1bn shy of Osborne's £3.5bn
Coverage obligation chunk worth more than expected
I thought the price paid for the coverage obligation lot was interesting - O2 only spent a little less on their 2x10Mhz with strings attached than EE did on their 2x5Mhz in 800Mhz sans strings and large chunk at 2.6Ghz.
Given the moaning from the operators about it, it seems they valued having 20Mhz as opposed to 10Mhz much higher than they let on.
Also interested to see what Voda and EE end up doing with their significant chunks in the 2.6Mhz band.
Fun times ahead for the spectrum geeks!

Apple refreshes MacBook Pro range
Re: *splutter* How much??
Not sure why you seem to have taken personal offence at my post with your snarky comments about the free market.
I'm sure people will buy them, valuing certain things more highly than me. However, with OSX being (officially) limited to Apple hardware, my choice of a different brand of laptop will have consequences for the operating system I can run. Its Annoying that I can't choose a cheaper but similarly specced lappy and (officially) use OSX on it.
Nokia's Elopocalypse two years on: Has Microsoft kept its side of the bargain?
I think it was worth a shot
I think the 'get into bed with MS' strategy was the best alternative at the time. Remember, their products were not great and their technical bureaucracy was incapable of producing but internal fights were easier. The alternatives were to go android and fight toe to row with HTC et al ( not an inviting prospect) or try and carry on with the internally developed new tech which was stuck in the mud.
MS have a reputation for throwing money and resources at things until they get them right, and that must have been attractive to Nokia at the time - first mover advantage and better integration on a platform that MS will just keep throwing money at until it succeeds.
It may not be working yet (and MS may yet fail) but it gave them breathing space (especially from investors ) to get their engineering depts back in a good place and be in a better position to slug it out on android should MS fail.

Meet & Greet With Ed Colver

All photos by Unique Nicole for the Space.
"Who Shot Rock & Roll" finally opened to the public on Saturday and people came out in droves. This was our largest opening weekend ever!
Some visitors really wanted to make sure they were the first people to see the exhibit. Jennifer & Allison (pictured above) showed up about an hour early just to be sure they would be the first guests to walk through our doors when we re-opened to the public.
Featured "Who Shot Rock & Roll" photographer Ed Colver also showed up that day and graciously chatted with staff and even signed books for those who purchased them at the front desk.
Have you seen the show? What do you think?
|© Edward Colver, Henry Rollins, outtake for Black Flag's Damaged album, Los Angeles, California, 1981
By Henry Rollins
Ed Colver's photo of me hitting the mirror has become one of those bookmarks in the great text of independent music. As far as a photo being used on the cover of Black Flag's first full studio album, Damaged, I am glad it was Ed who took the shot. His integrity and dedication to his work matched ours - It was a perfect fit. Ed captured images from the Southern California Hardcore scene like no one else. If it were not for him, a lot of that history would be nothing but mere tall tales. Ed and I have a very rare relationship. Even though there were other people in the room when that photo was taken, in the shot itself, it was just Ed and myself.
See Ed Colver's other images in Who Shot Rock & Roll, currently showing at the Annenberg Space for Photography through October 21, 2012. To learn more about the photographer and his work visit his official website.
Our first set of Meet & Greet events will include some of the legendary artists featured in Who Shot Rock & Roll: The Film. In addition to Rollins, photographers Ed Colver, Guy Webster and Norman Seeff will be part of our inaugural Meet & Greet slate. Check our weekly Iris Nights enewsletters for details. After the Meet & Greet, stick around to watch Who Shot Rock & Roll: The Film, which screens throughout the day at Skylight Studios.
Rollins' Meet & Greet will take place on Saturday, August 10 from 2-3pm. Rollins has spent over three decades traveling to over 80 countries and always keeps a camera close at hand. During the event, he will discuss his photographic work, share why he goes where he goes and what happens when he gets there. Rollins will also sign copies of one of his book Occupants, which will be available for purchase.
The Meet & Greet series is free, and no reservations are required. Please note that photographers will only sign items available for purchase at Skylight Studios.
Upcoming Meet & Greet events are below:
Henry Rollins
August 10 from 2-3pm

Why not have this without the other baggage?
Why not have this without the other baggage?
Better to have a neutral way of process dependencies being defined, then have tools automatically translate into the configuration of your favourite init system. Alternately, sell upstream developers on the merit of a standardized init system conf file format and get them to adopt it.
But this isn't the problem. The problem is that un-forked udev is only shipped in tandem with systemd. ConsoleKit is deprecated and replaced with logind, which is only shipped with systemd.
It's like MS bundling newer versions of DirectX only with their latest flavour of Windows, although perhaps not for the same reasons. Same tactics, though.
Isn't it enough to teach people how to properly perform unit conversions (then show them the cell phone app)?
Within the context of science education, it is a much easier to focus on understanding the mathematical relationships which underpin theory using metric. Use of customary units (US or UK) will result in more students falling back on the use of memorized magic numbers and not proper derived constants. Understanding concepts of scale in science becomes an order more difficult as well.
For this reason, metric units (mks or sometimes cgs) units are by far dominant in scientific papers and texts. Imperial has some presence in engineering, possibly due to a more narrow focus and more resistance to change.
Nope. Plasma physics was very young, and nobody had truly studied plasma turbulence.
It's easier to use section breaks, for a variety of reasons. Of course, that's like saying it's easier to knife off your testicles with a scalpel rather than an axe.
Compared to malice or corruption, I think sufficiently dangerous incompetence is equally undesirable. Bad results and bad methods are bad.
Please watch this video:

Oh, wait...
The input energy for the heat engine is less than the total amount of energy transported. In an example of a heat pump acting as a chiller, there is significant waste heat which must be dumped into a heat sink.Total energy transported is more than the input energy, but overall energy is conserved.
1) Supercomputers are populated with x86 heritage CPUs because they're cheap.
2) The most power efficient supercomputers are made with IBM PowerPC SoCs.

Webkit had to be contributed to comply with the licensing of KHTML.
My Palm OS device preferred stylus, but could work (badly) with finger touch as well. Resistive touch screens.
Just use all that wonderful hydrogen to do this:
While poking around a couple of weeks ago, I found a couple of HDL sources for MIPS R3000 cores. Would these run into licensing issues? They could be adapted to something similar, or perhaps other uses with the addition of on chip I/O and perhaps a vector unit, IMHO.
I take it nobody asked Douglas Rain to do the job?

Progressive Labs Minerals - Osteo-Mins AM 60 Capsules
Osteo-Mins AM 60 Capsules. As you get older youre more likely to suffer from weakened bones. The main symptoms of weakened bones are decreases density and mass that may result in an increase in fractures and breaks. However once you start experiencing this pain and inconvenience over a third of your peak level of bone mass may already been destroyed. The nutrients used to promote proper bone health may be more effective when theyre taken at different times of day. This is why Progressive Labs has formulated two different supplementsOsteo- Mins AM and Osteo-Mins PMto be taken in the morning and at night respectively. Osteo-Min AM contains essential minerals such as zinc selenium copper and boron. Here is more information about the key nutrients provided by Osteo-Mins AMs formula: Zinc manages the secretion of a hormone called calcitonin which regulates calcium levels in cells and is also important for bone development. Copper may play a larger role in bone health than previously thought: one study found a correlation between copper deficiency and lower bone density. Selenium is similar to copper in that a selenium deficiency has been associated with decreased bone density. Manganese helps support your bodys ability to retain calcium. Strontium is believed to have a chemical makeup similar to that of calcium; this similarity as well as several studies suggests that strontium may play a role in maintaining bone health. Silicon is also believed to also have a positive effect on bone health. Boron improves the absorption of calciumsimilar to vitamin Das well as magnesium. Start your morning off right by boosting your bones! Each bottle of Progressive Labs Osteo-Min AM contains 60 capsules.
