Portledge School hosted its 38th Commencement Exercises on Friday, June 14. Family and friends gathered on the Gimbel Lawn under a tent to share this joyous occasion. The Class of 2013 graduated 39 students, several of whom have been at the school since early childhood.
The morning festivities began with the processional led by the Board of Trustees and the honored members of the Class of 2013. Music was performed by Ancient Order of Hibernians and the Upper School Concert Band, under the direction of Patricia Baehr. Neil Nalanuthala '13 (Glen Cove) and Anna Ticker '13 (Brookville) sang America the Beautiful.
With the Taste of the Town still a warm glow of recent memory, the PTSA is already putting the funds raised to good use.
On June 5, the PTSA sponsored the UNITE Arrive Alive Tour to come to Oyster Bay High School. When students came to school that morning they were greeted with a car parked right outside the main entrance to the high school. Students were invited to sit in the car as a simulator approximated driving. Students were then given a cell phone and asked to text a message. Other students could watch a screen and see how erratic and dangerous driving becomes when drivers attempt to compose a seemingly simple text.
Recently, the Self-Advocates group from Mill Neck Services, Inc. (MNS) participated in a kick-off event at this year's Self-Advocates' Open House. Held at the regional office of the Long Island Developmental Disabilities Service Organization (LIDDSO) in Hauppauge, the event was packed with over 100 advocates and support staff. After being introduced, the MNS participants chatted with other self-advocates about their experiences, including a presentation about deaf culture.
Among the topics the group discussed, with the assistance of a PowerPoint slide show, were how language and communication access are crucial, ways to approach a deaf person, and the importance of the words used in identifying people who are deaf and hard of hearing. The MNS self-advocates wrapped up their presentation with a mini lesson teaching the ASL (American Sign Language) alphabet and the numbers 1 through 10.
For the Oyster Bay Boys' Varsity Track Team, this season has been inspirational. The team faced setbacks and adversities that would sideline many athletes. The word "quit" was not in their vocabulary as the dedicated and determined runners got knocked down only to pick themselves up and get back in the race.
When senior Pete Tricarico ran competitively on April 11 at the Cold Spring Harbor Invitational, he won a silver medal in the 1,000-meter steeple chase; an impressive performance since it was his first time ever running in the event, placing second only to teammate Teddy Hamlin. Hamlin not only placed first, but established a new meet record with a time of three minutes flat. That was nearly the last race Peter would finish in his high school track career.
The Roosevelt Elementary School spring concert wore a veil of sadness this year when it was announced that after serving 39 years for the district, the famously adored Robert Stern has decided to make this year his last. If Stern's goal was to go out on top, he has certainly exceeded that mark with this year's concert topping the best of the best.
The concert played tribute to Broadway, with second graders singing "Sunrise, Sunset," from Fiddler on the Roof, Beethoven with first-graders perfuming "Ode to Joy," and The Beatles for the grand finale performance.
Matthew Sisia, a high school music teacher, has been a source of pride and professionalism for the Oyster Bay-East Norwich School District since 2003. His love and deep understanding of what he teaches earns respect from his students and inspires them to be the best they can be. This level of quality has taken Oyster Bay High School musicians to places that most high school musicians never see. In 2008, Sisia's band played the world premiere of a piece called "Groove" composed by Dr. Shelly Hanson. In March of 2010, Sisia and the combined Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Band were invited to perform at Carnegie Hall.
At Oyster Bay High School, Sisia directs the Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, and Pit Orchestra, and serves as advisor for the Tri-M Honor Society. Sisia, who holds degrees from Pennsylvania State University and the Crane School of Music, is currently a doctoral student at the Hartt School. He has held positions as both the associate conductor of bands and adjunct professor in music education at Long Island University. He is the founder and director of the New York Chamber Ensemble and serves on the executive board of the College Band Directors National Association and the Nassau Music Educators Association.
As stage managers and crew scurried through the wings at 7:50 p.m. on Friday, April 12, hushed calls of "Thank you ten minutes," and the hum of the pit band could be heard as the cast and crew of Oyster Bay High School's production of "Anything Goes," readied themselves for opening night.
On one side of the curtain stood the 24-student cast, stage crew and dedicated stage managers Freshman Jasmine Williams and Sophomore Ernie Williams on the other side a teeming audience full of family, friends and teachers.
Lidia Siracusano's kindergarten class never gets quieter than a peep these days. That is since nine new arrivals emerged from their permeable shell on April 24, much to the delight of the entire school district community. While the eggs hatched in Room 24, thanks to efforts by the technology team, Michael de'Venau, Rob Wihnuk and Andy Kollmer, a camera streamed live video district-wide. Parents and students were able to access the video from home via the school's website.
Despite the fact that she has been doing this for 15 years, the process never becomes dull for Mrs. Siracusano who said, "I get a warm and fuzzy feeling every time I do this project."
As the eager school audience filed into the Old Gym on the morning of April 19, there were some nervous but excited third and fourth grade students seated on the stage. After weeks of studying, the day had finally arrived: the Sixth Annual East Woods School Spelling Bee.
A total of 39 students tried out for the Spelling Bee preliminary round, and 12 students made it through as finalists. Those students were given a challenging list of 250 vocabulary words to study prior to the Spelling Bee. After an impressive 43 rounds, Danielle Rosenthal, fourth-grade teacher and Spelling Bee leader, actually ran out of words, leaving a five-way tie for first place. During the last 15 rounds these five impressive spellers didn't miss a single letter.
As a fast-moving downpour cleared away on Thursday, April 18, the parents, students and faculty at East Woods breathed a sigh of relief. It was the first-ever "Evening of the Arts" at East Woods School, and everyone was hoping the night would go off without a hitch.
Students and their families arrived on campus by 7 p.m. and were guided to the Upper School Academic building. Showcasing and celebrating the arts program at East Woods, those in attendance were treated to a feast for the eyes and ears.

CAPE CORAL, Fla. -- Some Cape Coral seniors are proving you can be active at any age. Some ladies took the plunge in their community pool for a synchronized swimming show. They hope to encourage other seniors to get moving.
Cue the music! These ladies of Gulf Coast Village are making a splash with synchronized swimming.
"We are showing the people what we do three times a week," said instructor Rosemary Karpinski.
The show is a part of Gulf Coast Village's Health and Wellness Expo. These ladies, all in their 80's, aren't afraid to get their feet wet. and say fitness in the water has done wonders for their health.
"I think the pool is the most important part of our exercising daily," said swimmer Marion Straussfogel.
"It takes the pressure off your joints, you have no stress on any part of your body," said swimmer Eldora Haines.
They do everything from yoga, to cardio, to strength training. Their synchronized show is something they do on special occasions. The synchronized swimming was only a small section of the Health and Wellness Expo at Gulf Coast Village. People were also able to learn about senior safety.. and speak with different vendors.
"We believe it's incredible important for seniors to know whats available to them," said marketing director Dani Johnson.
As for the swimming? These ladies say it keeps them moving. "Got me motivated to come down, rather than not do anything," said Haines.
They want to act as inspiration for others, saying what they do is fun, and it's not as hard as you might think.
They put on the swimming show every year.

One Black Tea Bag = 40 milligrams per 8 ounce mug compared to coffee which is typically 120 milligrams per 8 ounce mug.
December 2015
Black Tea is made from the same plant as green tea and white tea. The leaves are dried and fermented, which gives the tea a darker colour and richer flavour than green tea. It also contains antioxidants which help prevent damage to our cells. Drinking tea is therefore good for skin, bones and teeth. Studies have found an association between drinking tea and a reduced risk for several cancers, cholesterol and heart disease. Drinking tea may also help with weight loss.
When you feel sluggish, there is just enough caffeine in black tea to perk you back up. The spices in the Bombay Chai have many health properties. Cinnamon is good for cholesterol and ginger is an excellent digestif.
To enjoy the health benefits of tea, it is advised that you drink it without milk.

Devin Setoguchi Brings Veteran Experience to ECHL's Ontario Reign During NHL Lockout
December 8, 2012 1 Comment
ONTARIO, CA — While the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Players Association continue to waste everyone's time with ridiculous, embarrassing posturing and bickering, players have gone overseas to play in European leagues and Russia's Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), while others have managed to sign on with minor league teams in North America.
For Minnesota Wild right wing Devin Setoguchi, a native of Taber, Alberta, joining the ECHL's Ontario Reign was a move that came easy and naturally.

Boy, 13, charged with attempted murder in shooting of 3 teens
SUN-TIMES MEDIA WIRE July 1, 2014 10:14PM
Updated: July 1, 2014 11:16PM
A 13-year-old boy was charged Tuesday night with attempted murder in connection with a shooting Monday that injured three other teens in the Washington Heights neighborhood on the South Side.
The boy, whose name was not released, was charged with three counts of attempted first-degree murder and three counts of aggravated battery with a firearm, police said late Tuesday.
The three teens were standing on the corner in the 9700 block of South Lowe Avenue about 6 p.m. Monday when a group of males approached and one started firing, police said. Then the group ran away.
A 14-year-old boy who was shot in the head and body was in critical condition. Another 14-year-old boy was shot in his right thigh. Both were taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital and Health Care Centers in Evergreen Park.
A 17-year-old boy was shot in his head and armpit and was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn in critical condition, police said.

1/2 Full Lyrics - Pearl Jam
Climbing over mountains
Floating out on the sea
Far from lights of a city
The elements they speak to me...
Whispering that life
Existed long before greed
Balancing the world
On its knee...
Don't see some men as 1/2 empty
See them 1/2 full of shit
Thinking that we're all but slaves
There ain't gonna be...
No middle anymore
It's been said before
The haves be having more
Yet still bored...
Won't someone save?
Won't someone save...
The world?
World.. world.. world

We're not sure about how Phil Falcone feels about bitcoins. We're certainly not as sure about his feelings on matters cryptocurrent as we are on his opinions re: the FCC and Charlie Ergen. And we're not sure that the latter's embrace of bitcoins will affect Phil's opinion, but it certainly cannot help. Read more »
Dish Network
The hedge funds that LightSquared owes money to, notably Dish Network Chairman Charlie Ergen's personal hedge fund, are quite eager to force LightSquared to accept Dish's bid for its assets. This would have the salutary effect of (a) ensuring that they all make a huge profit on debt they paid pennies for, (b) humiliating and possibly bankrupting Phil Falcone, and (c) giving Dish the extra spectrum it wants (while also making Charlie Ergen even richer).
So imagine their surprise when LightSquared named one of the many people who have had rough dealings with Charlie Ergen in the past to the special committee that will handle the auction of the aforementioned assets. Well, they have told a bankruptcy judge, this kind of stacking the deck simply won't do. It might keep Charlie Ergen's careful stacking of the deck from working. Read more »

Phil Falcone Sues Charles Ergen For Acting Like Phil FalconeBy Matt Levine
Presumably someone is working on a book about the LightSquared saga though so far this is all that I can find on Amazon. But the twists and turns of Phil Falcone's efforts to build a relatively non-plane-crashing wireless communications network, the dizzying highs and subsequent definitive lows of his relationship with the FCC, LightSquared's bankruptcy, its ramifications for Falcone's hedge fund, and the fight to gain control of its spectrum in bankruptcy, are the very definition of excitement in business dealings, which is to say that they're a bunch of guys sitting in offices and sending emails to each other but, like, angry emails.1
The latest is that Falcone's hedge fund Harbinger is suing Charles Ergen and Ergen's EchoStar Corporation and Dish Network for doing naughty things to muck up LightSquared's bankruptcy process. This is praise from the master; you might recall then-SEC enforcement director Robert Khuzami saying last year that Falcone's own gated-fund-borrowing-and-short-squeezing shenanigans "read like the final exam in a graduate school course in how to operate a hedge fund unlawfully." My take at the time was that those shenanigans seemed (1) definitively nasty but (2) not so definitively illegal, and I guess I'll go with the same answer for Ergen's manipulations? Man, Fraud Graduate School is easy.
The best thing to do is to assume that everything in Harbinger's complaint is true, because the story is better that way. If you do, then the story goes: Read more »
Dish Network Chief's Bid To Ruin Phil Falcone's Life Not Entirely Spiteful Or PhilanthropicBy Jon Shazar
Charlie Ergen stands to make quite a bit of money if he succeeds in prying LightSquared's spectrum from Phil Falcone's cold, hockey-hardened hands. Fancy that. Read more »

Lexington police arrested four people in a drug bust late Wednesday night.
The raid went down around 11:15 p.m. along Brown Avenue. Police say they've been watching the house for some time, waiting for the right moment to conduct the raid.
Neighbors say they've noticed suspicious activity in the area.
"There's been a lot of traffic around here for drugs-- it's like an assembly line-- they pull up all day long and you could tell something suspicious is going on," Dane Connelley said.
He says he's happy that the police took action.
"Glad to see that they are listening and they actually do care. It's kind of relieving to know they care enough about our neighborhood to try and clean it up for us," Connelley said.
Police say there could be additional arrests in the case.
Officials have not released the names of the people arrested.

Relaxing: A relaxing blend of French Lavender and Fir Pine, enhanced with Egyptian Jasmine and sweetened with pure Vanilla, softened with delicate Musks. We have had customers tell us that this is a "mature, grown-up vanilla based blend" and we think that description is very accurate. Fantastic not only in soap but also in Bath Bombs and Lotions. This fragrance discolors because of the Vanilla but the smell is too fabulous to care. (To prevent Relaxing from discoloring, try our Vanilla Color Stabilizer) In liquid soap, Relaxing slightly thickens the base and ends a clear discolored hue.
Vanilla Content: 9.3%

Forecasters say this winter will be warm and dry in the South, while the Pacific Northwest is facing a colder and wetter than normal season.
Deputy Climate Prediction Center Director Mike Halpert says drought could spread in the Southeast, particularly Florida.
He says a big factor in the outlook is the ongoing La Niña conditions in the tropical Pacific Ocean, a warming of the water that affects the movement of weather patterns across the country.
But, he added, the outlook is not guaranteed.

SANTA FE, N.M. — Police say a group of suspected teen vandals in New Mexico got so rattled when a crime victim chased after them they called 911 and were arrested as a result.
KOAT-TV reports police say the teens, who range in age from 18 to 15, shot at several windshields with BB guns in a Santa Fe neighborhood, until one victim jumped in his car and followed them.
Officials said the teens called 911, telling the dispatcher the car would speed up whenever they did.
The teens face property damage and drug paraphernalia charges.
It was not known if the teens had attorneys.

Hot Mormon Muffins and Models for Jesus: What's With All the Sexy Christians?
My friend Jim is really good at what he calls "the runner-up smile." It's a grin as taut as a mainsail that one has to plaster on one's face when it is announced that all your efforts, dental work and hours practicing Portia's speech have been for nothing -- you didn't get the crown. It's an expression that's as thin as Saran Wrap and just as transparent.
But what else can they do? They can't stamp their dyed-to-match pumps on the stage and stomp away or they'll be considered ungracious. They can't smile for real because it's almost impossible to be that phony with adrenaline flooding your system. So how's a girl to react?
Well, you could wait until you get offstage and assert that you were unfairly treated until everyone knows who you are and no one remembers who actually won (it was Kristen Dalton, by the way). That's what Carrie Prejean did. She's the Miss USA runner-up who stated her disapproval of gay marriage, said her views cost her the crown when Dalton actually scored higher in other events, threatened a religious discrimination lawsuit against a pageant company when she was fired for contract violations and of whom a sex tape -- possibly more than one -- has now appeared. It's the kind of celebrity that has "perishable" written all over it -- and one which we should learn from while we can, since it provides quite an quite an interesting viewfinder of how we judge each other sexually.
Carrie Prejean barely crossed my radar until the sex tape came out, at which time she went into damage control mode, obviously -- and justly -- worried about being judged. "It was the worst mistake of my life," she said.
I doubt that. It's not even a bad thing. She's a grown woman (she says she was a teen but she must have been of age or adult film giant Vivid wouldn't be hoping to release it) trying to make her boyfriend bust his zipper from afar. What could be more normal than that? It's not behavior we normally associate with God-fearing folk who judge other people's sexuality…but discrimination is worse than a little lust, a digital age version of "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I'll start with this finger..."
Lovers have always given smutty presents to their shmoopies, presents that would have shocked the corsets off their contemporaries and the Hanes Her Ways off ours. Lady Caroline Lamb, the married lover of Lord Byron sent him a lock of her pubic hair in 1812 with a letter that read (in part): "'I asked you not to send blood but Yet do -- because if it means love I like to have it." James Joyce once wrote to his wife "my hands clutching the round cushions of your bum and my tongue licking ravenously up your rank red cunt…" You think if he had a Blackberry he wouldn't have texted it? Or if they had a webcam they wouldn't have shot it?
People are not idiots for expressing love and lust meant for their partners. Unless it involves a restraining order, an expression of desire is a wonderful thing. "Never apologize for showing feeling," Benjamin Disraeli said. "When you do so, you apologize for truth."
That said, Miss Prejean's judgment on other people's sexuality by stating that same-sex couples shouldn't be allowed to wed is an irony that should be ringing in her ears right now like a tornado alarm through a Spinal Tap speaker since she's now being judged on her sexual behavior. Fate almost never offers us a life lesson in such a neat package. Usually we have to wrestle with "What does it mean?" like a heart patient whose pulse escalates dangerously while trying to open a childproof med bottle. This one is so easy even a dogmatist could see it: instant karma. If you don't like feeling judged for who you are sexually maybe you shouldn't judge other people for who they are sexually. It couldn't get any fucking neater if Martha Stewart gift-wrapped it: there's not enough tooth whitener or ersatz boobery in the world to make discrimination a pretty thing.

ADP Budget:
Analysis of SSA's Fiscal Year 1988 Information Technology Systems Request

- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
In response to a congressional request, GAO analyzed the Social Security Administration's (SSA) budget request for its information technology systems modernization for fiscal year (FY) 1988.
GAO found that SSA: (1) budgeted about $283 million for its proposed systems modernization plan, including software development, database integration, and management information; (2) estimated that it would require about $8.2 million for additional telephone acquisitions, including $2 million for contracts associated with automatic data processing maintenance; and (3) revised its budget for FY 1988, drastically reducing its need for hardware procurement, and cancelling a distributed data processing task force project. GAO also found that: (1) SSA would have a $181 million carry-over balance at the start of FY 1988, more than the $116 million that SSA projected; (2) since SSA decided to use in-house resources for its software improvement, it would not need an estimated $500,000 in FY 1988; and (3) although SSA revised its budget request in many areas, it planned to increase its 1988 request in areas dealing with telephone acquisitions and maintenance.

Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 tablet looks like it could be a solid alternative to some notebooks, but can it take on laptop giants like Apple's MacBook Air? Microsoft seems to think so. The company's VP Panos Panay directly challenged the Apple laptop during the latest Surface unveiling.
The Surface Pro 3 has some obvious advantages, including a super-sharp 2160 x 1440-pixel touch display that supports some exciting pen features. It's even lighter than the Air, a notebook famous for its portability. However, while the MacBook Air provides everything you need right out of the box, the Surface Pro 3 doesn't show its full strength until you buy some accessories — including the $129.99 Type Cover keyboard. If you're wondering if the Surface Pro 3 can truly replace the king of ultraportable laptops, here's how it stacks up with Apple's 13-inch MacBook Air.
|Microsoft Surface Pro 3
|Apple MacBook Air 13-Inch
|$999 ($1128 w/ keyboard)
1.6-GHz Core i5-4300U
1.4-GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
|12-inch, 2160 x 1440
|13.3-inch, 1440 x 900
|Intel HD Graphics 4400
|Intel HD Graphics 5000
|Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro
|Apple OS X Mavericks
|11.5 x 7.93 x 0.36 inches
|12.8 x 8.94 x 0.11-0.68 inches
|1.76 pounds
|2.96 pounds
|5-MP, 1080p front and rear cameras
|720p front-facing FaceTime camera
The Surface Pro 2 looks a bit chunky when placed next to a MacBook Air, but Microsoft fixed that problem with the Pro 3. The tablet now sports a slick 11.5 x 7.93 x 0.36-inch magnesium frame that weighs 1.76 pounds without a keyboard. That's more than a pound lighter than the 2.96-pound MacBook Air.
In order to make the Pro 3 more "lapable," Microsoft has improved the slate's kickstand so that users can fold it up to 150 degrees. The optional yet practically required Surface Type Cover now clicks to the display for more stability, whereas the MacBook Air provides a solid typing experience right out of the box.
MORE: Apple MacBook Air vs. Microsoft Surface Pro 2: Face-Off
Apple notebooks are still playing catch up when it comes to screen resolution, and the Surface Pro 3′s 12-inch, 2160 x 1440 display trumps the MacBook Air's 13.3-inch 1440 x 900 screen. The Pro 3 is the only of the two with a touchscreen and smart pen, which might sway some shoppers.
When looking at the $999 configurations of each device, the Surface Pro 3′s 1.6-GHz Core i5 processor is just a bit faster than the MacBook Air's 1.4-GHz Core i5 CPU, while the MacBook's Intel HD Graphics 5000 is a slight step above the Pro 3′s HD 4400. Both products pack 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
The Surface Pro 3 is the only device of the two to sport a rear camera, but we're not sure if you're going to be running around snapping photos with a laptop replacement.
The Surface Pro 3′s Surface Pen makes it a standout, as you can use the stylus to open OneNote with a single click or double-click to take screenshots. The pressure sensitive accessory works with the Pro 3 to quickly turn handwriting into digital content, which could come in handy for those who want to save their scribbled notes during meetings.
The MacBook Air's feature set is less fancy, but you get a healthy software suite in exchange. Between the included iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) and iLife (iPhoto, iMovie, Garageband) suites, you'll be able to get plenty of mileage out of the Air.
At first glance, it's easy to assume that the Surface Pro 3 offers a sharper display and lighter body than the MacBook Air for the same $999 price tag. However, you'll need to pay an extra $129 for the Surface's Type Cover keyboard, which is essential for using the slate as a laptop replacement. It might be worth splurging for the Pro 3 if you want a touchscreen device with some neat pen features, but the MacBook Air still provides the most solid notebook experience for your money.
For real work, the SP3 wins this comparison, hands down. 2.4 times as many pixels, and a stylus.
If you need to run Windows applications on the Air, you have to purchase a copy of Windows, which costs about the same as the SP Type Cover.
But, if you want to spend a grand on a laptop without a touchscreen, there are plenty of alternatives to the Air that don't include the Apple Tax.
I'm not really sure why you would compare these two in the first place, but then to declare the "Air still provides the most solid notebook experience for your money" smells of bias to me.
What's with all of the reviewers "choking" ovr the extra cost of the Surface Pro 3 keyboard when comparing to the MacBook Air? How much does it cost to add a high res screen to the MBA – oops, can't do that. How much does it cost to add a touch screen – oops, can't do that. How much does it cost to add an active digitizer to the MBA – oops, can't do that either…hmmmmm…maybe you need an iPad Air to go with that MBA, just like all those journalists in the front row yesterday…hmm, a minimum of $399 for the lowest end iPad Mini Retina…
You can easily purchase any other bluetooth enabled keyboard instead of the type cover. It's not required.
Not sure why in your bottomline you noted the MBA as a solid notebook but made no reference to it not being a tablet complete at all, period. In other words, why raise the MBA for its limitations of ONLY being a notebook. I don't think anyone who is look at these are people who want a "solid" notebook.
MacBook/ Mac Computers have always been overpriced, a little under featured but they have always been worth it because of their build quality, and history of longevity. The Surface Pro 3 blows the iPad out of the water, because of many things. The MacBook Air at least in this case is a better buy
I also like Macs for alot of reasons, but for being really productive the Surface Pro 3 is soo much better than the Macbook Air. Let's mention some reasons why:
-> active Stylus (note taking, drawing, CAD, photoshop, …)
-> the HD 5000 Graphics don't help so much in the MBA, because of the limited heat management …
-> TPM (may be important for the additional security features)
-> thickness and weight : SP3 is thinner, lighter and more compact
You can purchase a bluetooth keyboard but It's not built to be tranported with the Surface 3 as easily.
Hmmm, this is the second comparision that reeks of Apple bias. I have a IPad Air, I also have a Surface Pro 2, and you what! I use the Surface Pro 2 like a regular laptop. In fact, I've retired my Dell laptop in favor of the Surface Pro. I also I have a MacBook Air (Company provided) that I rarely open up because of the functionality of the Surface Pro 2. The new Surface Pro 3 is a true laptop replacement IMO. But, the Apple bias continues on in the media!
I think the Surface shares the build quality with all Apple products. The difference between Apple and Windows is their models all have consistent components across the board. Windows machines OEM such as Dell have products with cheaper components and uses different component manufacturers in every model. Your i3 Dells differ from your top of the line components Alienware line. The Surface is manufacturing process is much the same as Apple. Designed by MS and manufactured by ODM's with the MS brand. Every Surface 3 will have the same components.
How is the SP3 better for "real" work? If you actually needed a higher resolution screen in a "laptop" then you are probably looking in the wrong place with the SP3 as the
Windows applications? Really? There are plenty of alternatives out there meaning you do not have to use Windows, and the great thing is that you can use Windows (you can't use great Mac/iOS apps on the SP3).
If all you do is use Office applications and browse the web then the iPad is cheaper and productive with an external keyboard.
Never really understood the point in a touchscreen laptop. How is moving your hands away from the keyboard and touching your screen more productive?
The footprint of the SP3 with the keyboard and the kickstand open when held on one's lap is around 27-28 cm deep for 45 degrees angle of the screen and for the MBA 13″ is about 21 cm deep at any angle of the screen. The problem with the use of the SP3 on the lap is that if you don't want the kickstand to reach beyound your knees, you have to pull the keyboard of the SP3 very close to you. Then you need to indease the angle of the screen of the SP3′ thus moving the kickstand more in the back. And then you start again. It is my impression that on the lap you won't be able to use the SP3 with the screen at the optimum angle and with the keyboard a bit further away, so as to not have your elbows pushing against the back of the chair or sofa on which you sit.

As in my case, components and extensions were going haywire with my site. I opened a ticket and stated my observations. We exchanged a couple more data points and a solution was recommended that resolved my issue. By the way, this all took place in less than a 24 hour time period.
This is one of my best experiences I have had with a quality product and a very fast support team.

About Candy Boehm
Hi, my name is Candy. Welcome to Candyland Lodge. I have lived in Western North Carolina for 34 years & I love this place. The breathtaking scenery & the peace you feel surrounded by Mountains. I raised my large family of 6 in these mountains, and I always feel them calling me back when I have been away. I am a Critical Care/ER Travel RN. In my Travels I've had the priviledge of staying in many nice places, and Candyland Lodge is where I always come back to to relax and am always able to leave the rest of the world at the door. I welcome your family's, business associates and church retreats to Candyland Lodge, Where were making amazing memories for all who experience a stay with us.
Candy Boehm purchased this cabin in 2007
Why Candy Boehm chose Candler
In 2007, I built Candyland Lodge to provide a place to relax, kick back and enjoy this peaceful mountain. I wanted a place that would showcase the incredible views that this place has to offer. This is a place for couples, small and large families, church retreats or corporate gatherings. The Lodge is 15-20 minutes from Biltmore Estates, Maggie Valley and downtown Asheville all which have great shopping, restaurants and local sites to see.
What makes this cabin unique
The property is very private, but close to Asheville. It is wonderful to sit on the porch, sip your coffee, grill out, have a drink and experience the serenity that only 15 private acres can offer. I invite you to make some amazing memories as you breath in the fresh mountain air, the sweet scents of honeysuckle, mountain laurel and woodsy aromas that permeate the air. You might even spot a deer. Welcome to Candyland Lodge!
Guestbook comments from the owner
Thank you so much for a relaxing stay in the Mountains - it was everything you said it would be. Your Cabin is beautiful - the hot tub was amazing and the massage my wife and I got was the icing on the cake!

Haha, sorry for taking so long Tyrion! I just now came back over here. Got sucked into Youtube world just completely zoned out watching videos of peoples Universes from '12 and new gameplay from '13.
Footage is long and the guy playing Big Show sucks (they both kinda do, which is always the annoying instance for people getting new footage of the games every year. It's never people who are truly good at the game and show off a lot of stuff), but nonetheless it shows SOME things.
Big Show is seriously MASSIVE! Such a small detail that makes a HUGE difference. When Punk has him on his shoulder for the GTS you can really tell the difference, not like you can't during the whole match but that part definitely shows it amazingly well!
If you guys don't want to watch the whole 9mins here are a few nice things to look at:
