Downtown SF "Meat and Potatoes"?
- janetofreno Jan 18, 2010 09:34 PM
A dear friend who can't help that he's an Iowa boy through and through is headed to SF next week for a meeting...and asked for restaurant recommendations. He prefers within easy walking or transit distance of Union Square, and, well, he doesn't want seafood. He's not really into ethnic, although he'd certainly go for a good Italian place and possibly Chinese...mid-price level is probably best....Hounds?
How about Tadich Grill or Sam's Grill. You can get a decent steak at either place and a few other things. Each has its charm. Even safer would be Kuleto's, it's Italian but you can also get a steak. I ate there 5 years ago and nothing was bad, no one was offended but I don't recall what I had.
Tadich Grill
240 California St, San Francisco, CA 94111
221 Powell St., San Francisco, CA 94102
Chez Papa Resto is reasonably close to Union Square. Good steak and fries French bistro style. Best Italian in the Financial District: Perbacco. Both are really good. Neither is over-the-top expensive.
230 California St, San Francisco, CA 94111
Chez Papa Resto
4 Mint Plaza, San Francisco, CA 94103
re: nocharge
Here is one more thought: Scala's Bistro. It's not as good as Chez Papa Resto or Perbacco, but it's really close to Union Square and it's open late. Could do in a pinch. The chef of Perbacco used to be the chef there.
230 California St, San Francisco, CA 94111
Scala's Bistro
432 Powell St., San Francisco, CA 94102
Chez Papa Resto
4 Mint Plaza, San Francisco, CA 94103
Try Fino, a small Italian restaurant in the Andrews Hotel, 2 blocks west of Union Square on Post Street.
John's Grill... the meat version of Sam's and Tadich. Old-school atmosphere, grilled steaks, lamb chops, etc. Plus the association with the Maltese Falcon and Dashiell Hammett.
John's Grill
63 Ellis Street, San Francisco, CA 94102
re: saffrongold
This was my first thought too. He'd really get a kick out of this place, I think.
I think some of these suggestions perhaps emphasize the 'safe' rather than the best chow. Meat and potatoes can be delicious, after all.
I would choose LarkCreekSteak over Tadich or John's Grill for a steak (and if he is travelling alone, tell him to request a seat at the counter: very entertaining). Scala's Bistro is only ok, in my opinion, and not cheap. Perbacco is a great suggestion if he would want Italian (much better than Kuleto's or Scala's). Other options would include Fish and Farm (just off of Union Square, tell him not to let the Fish in the title scare him off, they have several very nice meat dishes, including a burger and fries) or even Zuni Cafe (a short cab ride away, and a great Ceasar salad.)
Yeah, Perbecco was going to be my first recommendation. Great Italian, a lot of meat on the menu, maybe a fancy kind of menu but the food is really good. He could also try Bix, which has gotten a lot of good reports recently (especially for the burger). And Town Hall would be a great place for him -- if he's solo, he can eat at the bar, the food is good, and there's a lot that appeals to the meat and potatoes lover: good burger, chicken friend pork chop on the current menu, cornbread. All of these recommendations are not quite meat and potatoes, though -- he might be put off by the menus with lots of very SF menu descriptions, but the food is good and hearty.
re: steve h.
Go. Reports from 2008 and 2009.
House of Prime Rib
1906 Van Ness Ave., San Francisco, CA 94109
re: wolfe
Yes, Go. We've been going there for over 30 years and, yes it's changed some and maybe not quite as good as in the 70's and 80,s but, for what it is, we love it. We love the beef, of course, but also like the salad, bread, baked potato with everything and the Yorkshire pudding. I like creamed spinach but am not so fond of theirs. You can ask for seconds if you want, but I can barely eat my first serving.
Nice suggestions, but for a a really enjoyable meal at a fine SF tradition, got Harris's. Sit at the bar.

Paula Johnson: His and hers … healthcare
Paula Johnson: His and hers … healthcare
Every cell in the human body has a sex, which means that men and women are different right down to the cellular level. Yet too often, research and medicine ignore this insight — and the often startlingly different ways in which the two sexes respond to disease or treatment. As pioneering doctor Paula Johnson describes in this thought-provoking talk, lumping everyone in together means we essentially leave women's health to chance. It's time to rethink.
Dr. Paula Johnson is a pioneer in looking at health from a woman's perspective.
Ever think you were having a heart attack? It turns out that many of the well-known early symptoms, such as chest pain and pressure from left arm to jaw, are more typically experienced by men. Women are more likely to experience shortness of breath, unusual perspiration and abdominal discomfort. Dr. Paula Johnson was one of the first to ask big questions about women's experience of cardiac care — and their access to care that meets their needs.
Johnson and her team at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston focus on mentoring, measuring and bringing together expertise from practicing clinicians and academics to improve women's health. She says: "One of our core responsibilities will be to address critical questions … such as, 'How do sex and gender impact health and health outcomes?' and 'How can health disparities among different groups of women be eliminated?'"
"Addressing women's health globally is critically important. Creating a powerful movement to lift the health of women globally could transform the health of the world." Dr. Paula Johnson, BigThink

Women Suffer Higher Rates of Decline in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease
Women Suffer Higher Rates of Decline in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease
The rates of regional brain loss and cognitive decline caused by aging and the early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are higher for women and for people with a key genetic risk factor for AD, say researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine in a study published online July 4 in the American Journal of Neuroradiology.
The linkage between APOE ε4 – which codes for a protein involved in binding lipids or fats in the lymphatic and circulatory systems – was already documented as the strongest known genetic risk factor for sporadic AD, the most common form of the disease. But the connection between the sex of a person and AD has been less-well recognized, according to the UC San Diego scientists.
"APOE ε4 has been known to lower the age of onset and increase the risk of getting the disease," said the study's first author Dominic Holland, PhD, a researcher in the Department of Neurosciences at UC San Diego School of Medicine. "Previously we showed that the lower the age, the higher the rates of decline in AD. So it was important to examine the differential effects of age and APOE ε4 on rates of decline, and to do this across the diagnostic spectrum for multiple clinical measures and brain regions, which had not been done before."
The scientists evaluated 688 men and women over the age of 65 participating in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, a longitudinal, multi-institution study to track the progression of AD and its effects upon the structures and functions of the brain. They found that women with mild cognitive impairment (a condition precursory to AD diagnosis) experienced higher rates of cognitive decline than men; and that all women, regardless of whether or not they showed signs of dementia, experienced greater regional brain loss over time than did men. The magnitude of the sex effect was as large as that of the APOE ε4 allele.
"Assuming larger population-based samples reflect the higher rates of decline for women than men, the question becomes what is so different about women," said Holland. Hormonal differences or change seems an obvious place to start, but Holland said this is largely unknown territory – at least regarding AD.
"Another important finding of this study is that men and women did not differ in the level of biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease pathology," said co-author Linda McEvoy, PhD, an associate professor in the UCSD Department of Radiology. "This suggests that brain volume loss in women may also be caused by factors other than Alzheimer's disease, or that in women, these pathologies are more toxic. We clearly need more research on how an individual's sex affects AD pathogenesis."
Holland acknowledged that the paper likely raises more questions than it answers. "There are many factors that may affect the sex differences we observed, such as whether the women in this study may have had higher rates of diabetes or insulin resistance than the men. We also do not know how the use of hormone replacement therapy, reproductive history or years since menopause may have affected these differences. All these issues need to be examined. There is no prevailing theory."

Cyprus: The next blunder
Charles Wyplosz 18 March 2013
The Cyprus bailout package contains a tax on bank deposits. This column argues that the tax is a deeply dangerous policy that creates a new situation, more perilous than ever. It is a radical change that potentially undermines a perfectly reasonable deposit guarantee and the euro itself. Historians will one day explore the dark political motives behind this move. Meanwhile, we can only hope that the bad equilibrium that has just been created will not be chosen by anguished depositors in Spain and Italy.
The decision to tax all Cypriot bank deposits has attracted massive attention (Spiegel 2013) – and rightly so. It is a huge blunder:

Avoiding an Italian bailout: Why and how
Francesco Giavazzi 13 August 2012
Spain looks set to turn to the EFSF for a formal bailout subject to stringent conditionality. In this column, Francesco Giavazzi – one of Europe's leading macroeconomists and an advisor to the Monti government – argues that Italy's situation is nothing like Spain's. To avoid submitting itself to its EFSF conditionality, Italy should reduce its borrowing needs with a determined programme of public asset sales and bridge financing from the Cassa Depositi e Prestiti.
Spain has no options, but Italy does.
Spain may have no other option than to turn to the EFSF and the ECB for assistance: Italy has, and should pursue them. By going to the EFSF together with Spain – as many in the markets are advising – the two countries would be put in the same basket, one in which Italy does not belong.

Linking banking crises and sovereign defaults in emerging markets
Irina Balteanu, Aitor Erce 12 November 2014
The feedback loop between banking crises and sovereign debt crises has been at the heart of recent problems in the Eurozone. This column presents stylised facts on the mechanisms through which banking and sovereign crises combine and become 'twin' crises. The results point to systematic differences not only between 'single' and 'twin' crises, but also between different types of 'twin' episodes. The timing of 'twin' crises – which crisis comes first – is important for understanding their drivers, transmission channels, and economic consequences.
The feedback loop between fiscal and financial instability has been at the core of the recent turmoil in Europe (Acharya et al. 2014). In some countries, systemic banking crises triggered fiscal distress due to the magnitude of bank rescue operations (for example, in Ireland). In others, substantial sovereign debt tensions, leading to successive sovereign downgrades, severely weakened domestic financial systems (for example, in Greece).

EU bank deleveraging
Pierluigi Bologna, Arianna Miglietta, Marianna Caccavaio 14 October 2014
Following the financial crisis, European banks have taken steps to revise unsustainable business models by deleveraging. By this metric they have made substantial progress – but this column argues that improper management of the deleveraging process may threaten the recovery. The authors find that equity increases played a much larger role than asset decreases, and recommend increasing the disposal of bad assets.
Ever since the global financial crisis made it apparent that financial institutions had increased their leverage substantially (Figure 1), bank leverage has faced intense scrutiny. In the run-up to the crisis, the ballooning of banks' balance sheets was primarily driven by both a significant increase in lending activities and an abundance of cheap funding. Many banks expanded dramatically, becoming too highly leveraged and 'too-big-to-fail', while at the same time accumulating substantial risks.

No miracles in southern Eurozone without resource reallocation
Ramon Xifré 12 September 2014
As the most acute phase of the Eurozone crisis is over, the current-account balances of France, Italy, and Spain have improved. This column warns against complacency about this improvement, pointing at some structural factors that impede growth and damage competitiveness. Resources should be relocated towards the tradeable sectors and to those firms most prepared to grow and compete. If not, these three countries are likely to aggravate the dysfunctional duality of their economies.
The most acute phase of the Global Crisis appears to be over in the Eurozone. Prospects for growth are still moderate but no recession is foreseen in the short-run and sovereign debt markets seem to be getting out of the turbulences. The prevailing view is that the countries that have been under the Economic Adjustment Programmes (EAP) have drastically improved their conditions with the recovery extending to large, non-EAP but 'vulnerable' member states like Spain, Italy, and France.

Smaller is better: Disintegrated nations in an integrated Europe
Edoardo Campanella 12 August 2014
Separatism is on the rise in Europe. This column argues that, while the Eurozone Crisis is certainly reinforcing regional tensions, the underlying causes are globalisation and the deepening of the European project. Independence campaigners want access to the larger European market, while unfettering their regions from the centralised control of national governments. Renegotiating the terms of the relationship between national and regional governments is preferable to resorting to political threats or the use of force.
Throughout the course of history, there are few regions in the world whose map has changed as frequently and abruptly as that of Europe. Nowadays, political forces – less violent and bloody than in the past, but equally destructive – are slowly and imperceptibly eroding the borders of several countries. Tensions within states – not enmities among competing powers – are remodelling the political geography of Europe.

Sovereign debt markets in turbulent times: A view of the European crisis
Fernando A Broner, Aitor Erce, Alberto Martin, Jaume Ventura 23 July 2014
Since 2010, Eurozone periphery countries have faced severe debt problems and falling credit to the private sector. This column interprets these events with a theory that has three main ingredients. First governments can favour domestic creditors. Second, public debt trades in secondary markets so debt holdings shift from foreign to domestic residents. Third, due to private financial frictions, this shift crowds out private investment and growth.
Between the start of the financial crisis in 2007 and late 2009, the Eurozone's periphery countries saw a substantial reduction in economic growth and an increase in deficits. But their economic performance was, if anything, stronger than that in the core countries. The recessions in the periphery were no deeper than in the core, and financial markets absorbed their increasing public debt as they had done in the past, with non-resident creditors absorbing large portions of the increase.

The euro crisis: Muddling through, or on the way to a more perfect euro union?
Joshua Aizenman 03 July 2014
After a promising first decade, the Eurozone faced a severe crisis. This column looks at the Eurozone's short history through the lens of an evolutionary approach to forming new institutions. German dominance has allowed the euro to achieve a number of design objectives, and this may continue if Germany does not shirk its responsibilities. Germany's resilience and dominant size within the EU may explain its 'muddling through' approach to the Eurozone crisis. Greater mobility of labour and lower mobility of under-regulated capital may be the costly 'second best' adjustment until the arrival of more mature Eurozone institutions.
The short history of the Eurozone has been remarkable and unprecedented – the euro project has moved from the planning board to a vibrant currency within less than ten years. Otmar Issing's optimistic speech in 2006 reflects well the buoyant assessment of the first decade of the euro – an unprecedented formation of a new currency without a state.1 Observers viewed the rapid acceptance of the euro as a viable currency and the deeper financial integration of the Eurozone and the EU countries as stepping stones toward a stable and prosperous Europe.

Lacklustre investment in the Eurozone: Is there a puzzle?

Investment in the Eurozone is forecast to remain below trend until 2015, with a particularly large shortfall in the periphery. Low investment reduces aggregate demand, thus lowering short-term growth, and it also hampers medium-term growth through its effect on the capital stock. This column highlights three causes of low Eurozone investment – reduced public investment, financial fragmentation, and heightened uncertainty – and proposes a series of remedies.
According to the European Commission's most recent forecast, real economic activity in the Eurozone is expected to recover at a moderate pace until 2015, and to remain significantly weaker than in the US (European Commission 2014a).

The IMF's preferred creditor status: Questions after the Eurozone crisis
Susan Schadler 28 April 2014
The IMF has had a preferred creditor status throughout the history of its lending. This implies that borrowing countries are expected to give priority to meeting their obligations to the IMF over other creditors. This column reviews the onset of this preferred status, its purpose, and the way it changed after the recent Eurozone crisis. By lending €30 billion to Greece in 2010, the IMF introduced the option to permanently waive the requirement that a borrowing country is on the path to stability. This option increases the chance of moral hazard and undermines the strong framework for the preferred creditor status.
Throughout the history of IMF lending, the institution has had preferred creditor status – that is, distressed countries borrowing from the IMF are expected to give priority to meeting their obligations to the IMF over those to other creditors. This status is a defining characteristic of the IMF's role in financial crises – it provides a high degree of confidence that IMF resources are safe when other creditors face substantial uncertainty about full repayment.

Press group slams killing of Guatemala journalistAugust 20, 2013 @ 5:01 pm
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) - The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists is calling on the government of Guatemala to investigate and punish those responsible for the killing of a local TV anchor, Carlos Alberto Orellana Chavez.
The committee said Tuesday that Orellana Chavez worked for a local cable TV channel and had denounced local corruption.
The National Police say Orellana Chavez's body was found Monday on a dirt road near San Bernardino in southern Guatemala. He was 62.
Orellana Chavez had served as a mayor of another township from 2000 to 2004 and he was the fourth journalist killed in Guatemala this year.
The discovery of Orellana Chavez's body comes one week after gunmen wounded print and radio journalist Freddy Rodas. Rodas works for the newspaper Al Dia and for Radio Sonora.

text: On June 15, 1999, at 1250 Pacific daylight time, a Cessna 150M, N9349U, registered to a private owner and operated by Alpha Aviation as a 14 CFR Part 91 instructional flight, collided with the ground during an attempted go-around at Bellingham International Airport, Bellingham, Washington. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed for the local flight. The airplane was substantially damaged and the flight instructor and student pilot were not injured. The flight had departed from Bellingham about one hour prior to the accident.During a telephone interview and subsequent written statement, the flight instructor reported that the student was practicing touch-and-go landings. The flight instructor stated that while on short final to runway 16, in gusting wind conditions, the student had the airplane lined up with the runway centerline. As the airplane descended to about 30 feet above the runway, a gust of wind pushed the airplane to the right side of the runway edge. The flight instructor stated that he took control of the airplane and initiated a go-around, when another gust of wind hit the airplane. The right wing tipped up and the left wing contacted the ground. The right wing then dipped down and also contacted the ground. The airplane then nosed down and came to rest next to the runway.In the written statement, the flight instructor stated that later he remembered that while on final approach, the wind sock on the south end of the runway was indicating the wind from 170 degrees to 190 degrees, with a wind velocity of 18 knots, gusting to 25 knots. The wind sock on the approach end however, was limp. The flight instructor felt that there might have been conditions indicative of wind shear.At 1253, the Bellingham Airport weather reporting facility was reporting the wind from 190 degrees at ten knots.

The Boeing Machinists union says it will put all the language from the company's contract offer on its Web site before members vote Saturday.
Negotiators agreed Monday on the tentative settlement to end that strike that started Sept. 6.
It shut down jetliner production and idled 27,000 Boeing workers. Most are in the Puget Sound area with others in the Portland area and Wichita.
If a majority vote approves the deal, workers could move next week from the picket lines to the assembly lines.

Written by Dagmar Fors Karppi, email@example.com Thursday, 27 March 2014 10:33
Oyster Bay author Denice Evans-Sheppard spoke at the Inter-tribal Showcase at Suffolk Community College in Riverhead on March 11. The Long Island Inter-Tribal Exhibit and Display presentation was hosted in the Montaukett Building at the college. The walls of the exhibit area showcased animal skins, Native American Regalia, a lacrosse stick, and display cases featuring hand made Native American jewelry.
They invited Evans-Sheppard to make a DVD presentation about her book on the Carl family of Oyster Bay, The Constant Struggle Within. The college provided a two-hour discussion that included representatives of the Montaukett, Shinnecock, Unkechaug, Taino and Ojibwe Tribes.
Ganoo (an Ojibwe) and Gordell Wright (who lives on the Shinnecock Reservation) began the program by playing the grandfather drum, known as "The Drum," and spoke the indigenous dialect of the Tainos, recently revived and now being taught to adults and children. Evans-Sheppard explained that all the languages spoken by the various Long Island Native American tribes are different dialects but are all similar enough for them to communicate.
Evans-Sheppard explained that Thomas Jefferson visited Long Island and while he was here he made notes on the different Native American languages. Unfortunately his stagecoach was hijacked with all the information in it. Amazingly his correspondence was discovered at Dartmouth College. "It is a bizarre story," said Evans-Sheppard. "It is now enabling the tribes to engage each other and help them to connect."
Evans-Sheppard traces her lineage to the Montauket tribe. Her great-grandmother Imogene Jackson's Native-American family moved to Wantagh and started a community there with other Native Americans and African Americans on a 30-acre parcel called The Brush. Imogene's father came from out east and migrated west to Wantagh.
They are buried in the Harold Avenue cemetery that has recently been named a landmark site with the help of Evans-Sheppard.
Her family helped build the Saint Matthias Church on Jerusalem and Oakville Avenues in Wantagh in 1845. It has had an ongoing congregation for 169 years. "We are trying to landmark that as well," she said.
The church owned two cemeteries on the 30 acres of land. The acreage was purchased in 1808 by Jeffrey and Kate Jackson, her grandparents several times removed.
Evans-Sheppard said, "They were living on the site when the missionaries came to town. Thomas Jackson, a Quaker abolitionist moved into the area. He was a veteran of the Revolutionary War. Because people of color were not allowed to own property, he had to buy my people in order for us to buy the property back from him. We all had to take his name to get the property back. The purchase wasn't effective until several years later, in 1921, when they were allowed to have the deed.
"They were master-masons and built the community and bartered between each other for food and services without leaving their property," she explained.
Members of the Montaukets traveled to Cold Spring Harbor and to Oyster Bay where David Carll bought property, now called Carl Hill, using money he received from the Town of Oyster Bay for enlisting to fight in the Civil War.
Also speaking at the program was Dr. John Strong, anthropologist and retired Professor of LIU South Hampton Campus who discussed the Indigenous life on Long Island and provided a slide presentation, on pre/post Columbus.
Evans-Sheppard's photos will be on display at the Suffolk Community College until mid-March. The documentation and photos will travel to Suffolk Community College in Brentwood in April.
Denice's family and Rev. Kenneth Nelson, past pastor of the AME Zion Church of Oyster Bay attended the event. He is also a Chief/Trustee of the Montaukett Tribe of Long Island.

Highways and Heartaches Lyrics - Ely Joe
Verse 1:
Leaving California
She is on my mind
I left her back in Travis County
Crying to a clothesline
Steel guitar on the radio,
Cuttin' slow and mean
I brought home the bottle
She just wanted beans
Highways and heartaches
Go together like you and me
Do you ever think about it
When the night is sad and lonely.
Verse 2:
I wonder if she's watching TV
Cryin' with soap opera stars
I wonder if she's seen it in me
Or if we've gone to far.
Look at all the lovers,
Runnin' from their past
Gassin' up just to get somewhere
But goin' nowhere fast
Do you ever think about it
When the night is sad and lonely
Verse 3:
Runnin' away don't stop the pain
It just delays the cryin'
What's left unsaid is better swallowed
Is covered up with lyin'
Though the song is over
I can still hear the steel guitar's
And though the past is gone for good
It still helps to swallow hard.

Therapy's been good for Rosanne Cash. So has mourning. On Black Cadillac the 50-year-old wisely positions herself as a survivor, not a Survivor, responding to the deaths of her father, mother, and stepmother with an anger she hasn't approximated since 1987's King's Record Shop. More than 15 years after Interiors signaled Cash's abandonment of her unmatched honky-tonkPat Benatar hybrid for confessional tropes plucked on Joni Mitchell guitar tunings, she emerges with her genius for genre-bending intact: This time the doom-buggy rattle of Bob Dylan's Time Out of Mind meets the controlled hysteria of Fleetwood Mac's Say You Will. Makes sense too, for King's Record Shop remains studio pop's apex, on which Cash played Stevie, Christine, and Lindsey: She was a gypsy, a chanteuse, and a mad studio boffin, chasing a wife-beatin' husband away so that she can plant a wet one on his wife. Meanwhile the drums and guitars crunched like post-punk never happened. (Fuck the Mekons: Seven Year Ache and Rhythm & Romance are the real alt-country totems.)
Cash's hubby John Leventhalwho, like his predecessor Rodney Crowell, knows the difference between spit and polishproduces and handles instrumental duties on Black Cadillac's quieter songs; these seethe with a convincing menace. Since Cash can court the absurd and the vulgar, we have to endure a couple of numbers that edge into Shawn Colvin territory (mandolins, sparrows, roses, yick) as well as one tune that calls shit on lawyers as if Rosanne's forgotten how good divorce has been for her artisticallypersonally too, as she'll likely admit. The Bill Bottrellhelmed songs evince a surprising range, and Cash is up to all of it, even if the welcome apostasy of the New Orleans death-boogie "World Without Sound" ("I wish I was a Christian/but I cannot believe") ensures that she'll never get played in the modern Nashville she helped create.
Black Cadillac doesn't have much to say about why Cash is so sad; it's as if she's trying to figure out why she has to work up the emotions to miss her parents and stepmother in the first place, which, when you come to think about it, is how the death of loved ones often affects us. "All those years to prove how much I care," Cash admits on "I Was Watching You," resigned, not needy. Rest assured: Her ache'll last longer than seven years.

Firms warn of new Mydoom worm
Anti-virus software maker McAfee Inc. is warning about a new version of the Mydoom worm that infects computers of people who click on a link in e-mail they receive.
The new version is a mass-mailing worm that does not contain an attachment, as some earlier versions of the worm program have done.
A worm is a self-replicating computer program that - like a computer virus - can cause damage to a computer's software by attaching itself to programs.

Virgin Media blames Activision for Call of Duty lag problems
Packet loss always the problem for me
I'm on VM and have experienced huge problems with packet loss and jitter which I've really struggled to explain to their support staff. On the surface the download speeds and latency seem fine, which is all they seem to care about, however any kind of 'real-time' application such as VOIP, gaming etc really suffers.
Having spoken to about 10 different support workers in India who all seem convinced that Internet Explorer settings are to blame (despite the same problems persisting across Linux and iOS devices) I've pretty much given up. The problem does seem to have lessened recently, so maybe VM have started addressing some of their capacity issues.

re: About those hours
Erm, they probably had more than one tester.
2000 testers would give 208 days if my maths is right. They probably just had a load of MS staff use them as their primary phone for a while and counted that as testing, even though for most of those hours the phone probably wasn't being used.
Of course with a load of automated tests you could simulate months of usage (with varying usage patterns) in quite a short timeframe.

Size of update
Apple really need to sort out the way they deliver updates for the iPhone - 378MB to deliver a change to a single, very simply, algorithm is a bit of a joke. Given the number of iPhones out there, that's a significant amount of wasted internet bandwidth we're talking about.

Battery Life
I eeked out my iPhone battery for over three days by turning off 3G, location services, bluetooth, WiFi etc (basically everything except your standard GSM) whilst I was at a festival. I had a cigarette-lighter based charger in the car but didn't have to bother with it.
Granted I didn't do anything but send the occasional SMS for the whole weekend, not sure what the battery usage of a medical app would be.
Appeal Court: Mod chips infringe game copyright after all

By that logic surely non-modded consoles infringe copyright too? Or is that not the case because the software licence explicitly allows a copy to be made by an official console?

iTablet suppliers named
re: So very un-Apple like
Actually Apple tends to announce the new iPod range (including the iPod Touch) each September, so this is very Apple-like.
Makes sense to align this with the iPods so it's thought of as a 'jumbo iPod Touch', i.e. a media-centric device, rather than a stripped-down MacBook with touch controls.
Owners say iPhone 3GS is a scorcher
No problems here either
I can't say I've noticed my 3GS 16GB getting particularly hot, but I've not used it for more than an hour continuously.
It would be interested to know whether the users that have complained have been keeping their phone in any kind of case since that's not going to help heat dissipation (neither is smothering it with a pillow to be honest).

Just spoke to someone at Vodafone who told me to "hold off for a month or so" when I said I wanted to leave for O2 and the iPhone as they believed that "the new iPhone is not exclusive to O2".
Could be bullshit, or could be the reason why O2 aren't able to offer the same discounts as AT&T in the states: their exclusive agreement with Apple has expired, along with any discounts from Apple that might have come along with that agreement.

If the OLPC people could do this a couple of years ago at a very low cost then I'm sure an improved, touchscreen version in ebook form-factor is possible.
Apple eyes patent for web silence
Already possible in Vista?
Well, on Vista you can set the volume of applications independently of the master volume from the standard volume control widget. Regardless of whether you run IE, Firefox or god-forbid Safari on Vista you could mute your browser and leave all other audio alone.
Seems like Microsoft have an elegant solution here already.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 compact camera
Sony seem to have been taking backwards steps ever since the DSC-T100 which I own and love. All the later models with touchscreen have been rubbish and produce worse images from what I can see despite all the new gimmicks that have been added to the product.
It's a shame because I could use a new pocket snapper with slightly higher resolution (think the T100 is 'only' 8MP) and improved manual controls and although I've had a good experience with my current Sony they don't seem to be delivering in the newer versions of the camera.
Sharp to ship 'world's first' Blu-ray recording TV
re: Why?
I'm sure the embedded recorder works as a player too. I guess you could record something and give it to your mate.
I wonder if this gets around the encryption that Sky uses, since you would be recording what the TV is displaying rather than some output from the Sky box itself? Do they even still scramble the output from the Sky box?
Microsoft breaks IE8 interoperability promise
Slightly unfair
My employer hasn't even deployed IE7 yet as our Intranet pages were coded to work with IE6 and are broken under 7, so maybe Microsoft is actually listening to the enterprise and doing the right thing by making compatibility mode the default for Intranet pages.
No idea what's going on with the icon though, surely the 'broken page' icon should be for compatibility mode not standards mode!
Acer Aspire One A110
Eee 901
I'll stick with my Eee 901 thanks - I easily get 6 hours out of the battery plus the spec is better (larger touchpad, 1.3M webcam, 1GB RAM, bluetooth, wireless N, included soft case).
Sure the keyboard is more cramped but it's fine for the odd e-mail or web address once you work out not to lean on the touchpad whilst typing! Makes the whole thing easier to dump into my bag too - a colleague has the MSI Wind/Advent SCC and the whole thing including power adapter is slightly too big.
BT updates Home Hub Wi-Fi box with 802.11n
How many ethernet ports?
The big question for me is whether they've added more Ethernet ports. The old model only has two, one of which has to be connected to the BT Vision box if you have that service, leaving one for the main PC and then none for games consoles and the like.
I'd love to switch to a different router for this reason (and also the fact that the hub crashes every couple of days), but as I understand it BT Vision and BT FON *require* the use of the Home Hub.
TVonics MFR-300 micro digital TV set-top box
re: ONDigital
Indeed, those old OnDigital boxes have both Aerial and SCART sockets. They're slow as hell at changing channels and rendering interactive content though.
HD TV in the UK
re: BT Vision
No HD on BT Vision yet as it's based on Freeview, although it does upscale SD to 720p over HDMI and does a pretty good job of it. Also means the user interface is in HD.
The video-on-demand stuff from BT Vision isn't HD either (there are some vague mumblings from BT about offering HD in the future), although it's much better quality than the iPlayer. The sound is all in stereo rather than 5.1 though.
HD film rentals via XBox 360
One option you've missed is downloading HD films to watch on XBox 360. I think you need an XBox Live account (not sure if silver is enough) and the choice isn't great (maybe a bit better than Apple's?), but it's there.
I think it's about £5 per rental for the HD version and about £3 for the SD version. Quality is OK, downloads seem to clock in at about 4.5GB for a 720p WMV file, so either the Elite or Pro version of the XBox is required (as these have 20GB and 120GB hard disks respectively).
Extreme porn bill gets final reading
There's an ePetition on the 10 Downing Street website to remove the offending section of this bill here:
UK government websites out of control
TFL Website
Some .gov.uk websites are pretty decent.
The TFL (www.tfl.gov.uk) website was even shortlisted for a Design Week award, and I think it's up for a Webby too:
Firefox and Safari updates tackle alternative browser bugs
Annoying Safari Updates
Even though I don't have Safari installed on my Windows Vista machine, I was still notified of the update with a pop-up asking me to install Safari (with the option to do so ticked by default, naturally).
I do use iTunes for syncing with my iPod Touch, but when will Apple stop trying to push other software on Windows users? It's bad enough that I have to install Quicktime (and disable its start-up services every time I update iTunes) to use iTunes without the constant nagging to install Safari.
Microsoft rolls out Vista SP1
Seems fine to me
Installed SP1 last night, it took about 20 minutes. My PC seems a lot more responsive, which is quite surprising really. I was fully expecting not to notice any difference.
Lot's of little glitches seem to have gone away, like the sub-second pause I used to get when connecting a mobile device and the screen flicker when tabbing in and out of games.
All in all, as a home user I'm pretty happy with it.
Apple unleashes monster patch batch on Mac faithful
re: Monster Patch?
Sure Vista SP1 is 435MB if you download the whole thing,but it's more like 60MB if you get it over Windows Update.
Who cares how big the patches are anyway? The more bugs and vulnerabilities that are fixed the better, surely?
T-Mobile sinks money into femtocells
Data really a selling point?
I can't help but think that if someone was that bothered about getting free data at home they would just go out and get a phone with Wi-Fi like the iPhone or a Nokia N Series (some of which are offered as free upgrades by Vodafone etc.)
The only people likely to be interested in Femtocells for the home are those out in the sticks where coverage is rubbish.
Odeon kicks Rambo in the 'nads
At least Rambo has a plot...
...of sorts, unlike Jumper: Guy can teleport, other guy tries to kill him, other guy doesn't quite manage it, the end.
Samsung laptop battery burns
Desktop machines don't allow this
My desktop machine shuts itself down if it starts overheating - I had a CPU fan fail and I quickly found out this was the case as the PC would shut down after running for a couple of minutes from cold.
Why don't laptop PCs do the same? OK, so maybe it's not the CPU heating up that's the problem, but it should be relatively straightforward to monitor the temperatures of other key components at the same time.
The evolution of Crystal Reports
Being phased out in favour of BOWI?
I get the feeling that Business Objects bought Crystal with the intention of phasing out Crystal Reports in favour of solutions where reports are built using Business Objects Web Intelligence. Although you can build Crystal Reports on top of a Business Objects universe, BOWI is much more flexible.
Yeah, so I'm fairly surprised to see Crystal Reports being pushed in this way.
Sony begins tracking customers' movements
Been out in the UK ages?
I looked at getting one of these (or something extremely similar) to go with my Sony T100 camera about a year ago.
You can buy them on Amazon for £69.99 here:
HD snapping comes to Panasonic
1920 x 1080 != 8Mp
1920 x 1080 is only about 2Mp! I would hope it could do more than snap at "up to" that resolution with an 8Mp sensor.
Nikon's D60 digital SLR blows in - literally
Sensor cleaning just a gimmick
It's a shame Nikon has felt the need to copy other camera manufacturers gimmicks rather than add something that would actually be useful.
If you change lenses a lot you're still going to need to blow dust off the sensor occasionally, and if you're an amateur who never/hardly ever changes lenses then it's completely useless!
Only a very slight step-up from the D40X really; the new lenses however are of much more interest.
BT Vision targets Xbox gamers for growth
Current kit not HD capable?
The current Philips kit can output a 720p or 1080i signal over HDMI - indeed that's how I have it set up at home and the user interface is rendered in HD along with an upscaled freeview picture.
I've no idea whether it will support over-the-air HD (if that ever happens), but given that BT often pushes firmware updates to the box (as it's always connected to the internet through the homehub) it doesn't seem impossible.
Mio intros 'true' 3D GPS
Defeats the point of SatNav?
Sounds like a rubbish idea. If I'm coming up to the crest of a hill and can't see what's coming up, I can look at my SatNav to find out that there's a killer bend just over the hill. With a 'true 3d' SatNav I won't be able to see over the crest of the computer-generated hill either.
Also, the landmarks stop you from seeing the details of roads off to the left and the right, and surely if you can see the landmarks on the SatNav you'll be able to see them for real anyway? Maybe it would help in the route planning stage but it seems pointless to show this stuff while you're driving.
Microsoft folds-in Multimap for '$50m'
re: OpenStreetMap.org
Hats off to you guys - that's a really clear mapping service that shows useful points of interest and correctly labels my street as having a dead end, unlike google, TomTom et al.
I've lost count of the number of times I've seen cars driving up our street at 30mph only to be confronted with a set of bollards whilst their SatNav is telling them to turn left/right!
If you get the routing going I'll happily switch from using Google Maps (street view and terrain is quite cool, but not actually that useful - give me train stations!)
Daring Register raid snatches key government URL
Nice try...
but I'm thinking they'll just replace the .co.uk with .gov.uk if this is a Government study.
iPhone tops mobile browsing charts
Driven by unlimited data usage I'd say
Yeah, I'm sure people would use other mobile devices to browse the net if they were on bundles including unlimited data usage (the only option with the iPhone on O2).
Do these figures include the iPod Touch browser too?
O2 gets 225 guinea pigs drunk by phone
re: Standardised secure smart card apps already exist
I remember a MONDEX trial that took place in Exeter about 5-7 years ago. If I remember rightly all the students there were given MONDEX cards as NUS cards and they could top them up at cashpoints in the city before using them to pay for stuff.
The end result? Nobody bothered because everyone has a debit card already - what's the point in having another card that you then have to load up with cash using your debit card?! The MONDEX cards were also accepted in less places than standard VISA debit, Maestro or Switch cards.
Until the day arrives where people can dispense with wallets altogether (i.e. when cash is no longer required *anywhere*) combining NFC payment with the phone is a bit pointless in my opinion - it's not much more effort to have a card in your wallet (like the Barclaycard) that is a combination of Oyster, debit and credit card.
Nokia and O2 get on the tube
One way to get your mobile stolen
So people will be expected to get their mobiles out as they leave the tube... thieves are going to love that!
What with the police encouraging people not to get their phones out as soon as they leave the tube station to avoid being targeted by mobile thieves this doesn't seem like a good way to get the petty crime figures down.
Mozilla hits back at Firefox 3 quality slur
No memory leaks here
I've had Firefox open for about a week now, with a couple of tabs that refresh every 5 minutes or so, and it's memory usage currently stands at about 83Mb.
I was under the impression that the majority of memory leak bugs were fixed back with the release of version 2.
Personally, as long as Firefox 3 isn't a backwards step in terms of stability from Firefox 2, I don't really mind how many bugs there are when it's released. I'm sure there are loads of Firefox 2 bugs that will get fixed in 3 so it's probably much of a muchness.
Nintendo sounds Wii-free Xmas warning
Get them from Germany
I know quite a few people who have ordered Wiis from the German Amazon site and had them shipped to the UK. They seem to have less problem with stock shortages over there.
I think the only downside is that you'll need an adapter for the plug.
Marvel launches digicomics initiative
So it appears that this is flash based and the application seems pretty good (basically a web version of CDisplay). Not as good as the online version of Ultimate Spiderman that was available a few years back (I think that site won some awards for best use of flash it was that good), but still OK for a first release.
The quality of the images isn't very high (compared to the common scan-to-jpeg downloads you can find), but what's to stop people just taking screenshots and sticking them in a torrent?
I think Marvel have missed the point here. I'd happily pay £5 a month for access to the back catalogue in a high quality downloadble format that I could take on the road (on my iPod touch for example).
Eurostar cancels 29 Feb 2008
re: -20 mins + 20 mins
"Yeah but it will take 20 mins+ longer for anyone to the South or West of London to reach St. Pancras compared with Waterloo."
Well as the majority of the UK is to the north of London I think you're in the minority here (plus a lot of locations to the south of London have train services to Victoria, which is a short tube ride to St Pancras without changing)
Tool opens iPhone, iPod Touch via web
Works just fine
I tried this last night and within half an hour I managed to Jailbreak my iPod Touch, install the BSD SubSystem and OpenSSH so I could connect using SFTP from my PC and then put the 'missing' iPhone applications like mail and maps onto my iPod - fantastic!
If Apple decides to release new firmware with some amazing extra features then maybe I'll reset to factory defaults and upgrade, but I really can't see myself doing that unless they offer some compelling feature I can't get through 3rd party applications.
There's really nothing to lose by Jailbreaking an iPod Touch at the moment, iTunes works exactly as it did before the Jailbreak and I have some great extra functionality. Coupled with my BT-FON Wireless access I can now get my mail on the move in a very friendly UI :-)
BT battens down Home Hub backdoor
RE: You think that's bad?
Gordon, BT have shipped their routers with wireless encryption turned on by default for years now (only WEP, admittedly); unless the engineer went out of his way to turn it off then I doubt what you're saying is true.
As for leaving user's PCs pointing at the nearest unsecured network, that could happen I guess but I've never had a BT engineer round to install my (BT provided) networking equipment so I can't comment.
Orange's Apple deal to bear unlocked iPhones
Still need an Orange contract?
Am I missing something here? Who said the unlocked iPhones would be SIM-free (and hence contract free)?
Surely you would still be required to sign up for a contract with Orange in France to get the unlocked iPhone? This would probably require a French address for credit checking and direct debit purposes which would probably stop any foreigners from easily picking one up.
Of course iPhones would probably start popping up on the French eBay at inflated prices before long, and the unlocked iPhone might offer some help when trying to unlock those already available.
Apple iPod Touch
Probably the best iPod so far
I've had an iPod Touch for nearly a month now after picking one up on a recent trip to New York and I can't stress enough what an absolute joy it is to use. The user interface is better than anything I've ever experienced. The iPod is slick as ever and the brightness and contrast of the screen really lend themselves to watching videos. I've been watching episodes of 24 on the iPod, a series with a lot of dark scenes, and I've had no issues at all.
The web browser is simply astonishing when compared to Opera Mini on a mobile phone; it is nearly the equivalent of a desktop browser save for flash support (and let's the honest, you'd only want that for YouTube and there's a dedicated YouTube app anyway).
Minor niggles: the lack of hardware volume controls, not being able to add calendar events (although you can add contacts despite what this article implies) and some syncing issues with album art in iTunes. 2 out of those 3 can be fixed with firmware updates. Maybe Apple should have included some kind of inline remote to deal with the volume control issue; I'm sure someone else will release one if they don't.

You know how important it is to read a contract carefully before signing up for a long-term, costly account, such as a magazine subscription or satellite radio service. But there is one clause to pay particular attention to if you want out of a contract when it is supposed to end: an automatic renewal.
Also known as negative option billing, automatic renewals allow companies to provide goods or services after an initial contract's end date - if the consumer doesn't cancel by a specific deadline.

WOONSOCKET — With the one-year anniversary of the deadly Boston Marathon attacks fast approaching, Dr. David King, a Mount Saint Charles Academy alumnus and trauma surgeon who ran the 2013 marathon and then helped save the lives of dozens of people injured in the blasts, visited his alma mater Friday to deliver a message of hope and inspiration.
King, a graduate of the the Mount Saint Charles Academy Class of 1991, spoke to the entire student body, delivering a 90-minute presentation that was both a first-hand account of the events of April 15, 2013, as well as a motivational talk in which King urged his audience of young Mounties to look beyond the tragedy that killed three people and injured 260 more.

Families of some of the passengers who were aboard Comair Flight
5191, which crashed on departure from Blue Grass Airport in
Lexington, KY, on August 27th, 2006, broke ground last week on a
memorial dedicated to those lost on the flight. The flight was
operated by Comair under a codeshare arrangement with Delta
Comair Delta Connection Regional Jet File
The relatives of the passengers were joined by Kentucky Governor
Steve Beshear and Lexington Mayor Jim Newberry. The event marked
the 4th anniversary of the accident in which 49 of the 50 people on
board the aircraft were killed.
The NTSB determined that the aircraft was cleared to take off
from Lexington's runway 22, but attempted departure from runway 26,
which was not long enough for the Canadair regional jet.
The Associated Press reports that the planned memorial is a
metal sculpture which will stand 17 feet tall and consist of 49
ascending doves. It is hoped that it will be completed by the 5th
anniversary of the accident next year. Governor Beshear said the
state will make $100,000 available for the sculpture, which is
estimated to be about a third of its cost.

Sushi Restaurants
- 3star May 28, 2008 08:52 AM
I am planning a first trip to LA towards the fall and I love sushi. I am looking for some great sushi restaurants that have particularly unique and creative specialty rolls or something different from the average sushi restaurant. Recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
rU looking for fusion sushi type places that are good at rolls, or actual sushi places?? if you're looking for the latter, i'd say try sushi zo, nozawa, kiriko, sushi gen, etc.
I'm not sure where you'll be when in LA but if you venture to the Valley, we like Teru Sushi on Ventura Blvd in Studio City. People also rave about the original Katsu-ya also on Ventura Blvd but I didn't like it as much as Teru. The best that I've had so far is Geisha House in Hollywood. VERY good sushi, great atmosphere, great service...I highly recommend it.
re: TwoGuys90068
Geisha House is positively horrendous. There is nothing good to be said about the restaurant whatsoever, and the worst part is the food itself. It is not edible.
re: hogtie
now, now, there is SOMETHING good to be said about geisha house: it is a preferred spot for birthday celebrations for 16 year old girls.
My favorite sushi is at Sushi Gen in Little Tokyo. However, it looks like you are looking for more of a fusion place that add avocado, jalapeno, and sauces to their fish. For that kind I like Matsuhisa, Nobu, and Katsuya.
422 E 2nd St, Los Angeles, CA 90012
129 N La Cienega Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211
Nobu Malibu
3835 Cross Creek Rd, Malibu, CA 90265
Katsuya Hollywood
6300 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028
For GREAT fusion rolls head up to Palos Verdes and have some excellent sushi and tempura as well.
Black Bamboo
724 Yarmouth Rd, Palos Verdes Estates, CA 90274
Well, I personally don't think you shouldn't limit yourself to "creative" places, as this can surely disappoint. L.A. is definitely the sushi capital of the U.S., so if you must try "creative", go to the guy who popularized it, Nobu Matsuhisa. He has 3 restaurants in the LA area. His original is Matsuhisa on La Cienega. He has another one down the street called Nobu and another one in Malibu. The food is basically the same in all 3 places, basically the only thing that is different is the decor. If you go, you should get the omakase menu.
If you want good old fashioned sushi, try Sushi Nozawa. And if you want extravagant try Urasawa in Beverly Hills.

MONDAY, Dec. 30, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Hypothyroidism, a condition that causes low or no thyroid hormone production, is not linked to mild dementia or impaired brain function, a new study suggests.
Although more research is needed, the scientists said their findings add to mounting evidence that the thyroid gland disorder is not tied to the memory and thinking problems known as "mild cognitive impairment."
Some prior evidence has suggested that changes in the body's endocrine system, including thyroid function, might be linked to Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, said researchers led by Dr. Ajay Parsaik, of the University of Texas Medical School in Houston.
Mild cognitive impairment, in particular, is thought to be an early warning sign of the memory-robbing disorder Alzheimer's disease, the study authors said in a university news release.
In conducting the study, Parsaik's team examined a group of more than 1,900 people, including those with mild and more severe cases of hypothyroidism. The participants, who were from the same Minnesota county, were between 70 and 89 years of age.
The study showed that memory and thinking problems occurred at about the same rate regardless of thyroid function. Impairments in brain function occurred in 16 percent of participants with normal thyroid function, 17 percent of patients with more severe hypothyroidism and 18 percent of people with mild hypothyroidism.
No association between hypothyroidism and mild brain impairment was found, the researchers said, even after they took into account the participants' age, gender, body-mass index (a measurement of body fat based on height and weight) and other health problems.
One expert said the final word on this issue might still be yet to come, however.
Dr. Spyros Mezitis, an endocrinologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, said the study had a "robust" design. But because the results conflict with those of prior studies, they "need to be validated in research in separate settings" and with a trial that follows patients over time.
"The practicing physician should continue testing thyroid function in the setting of [memory and thinking] decline and treating clinical hypothyroidism," Mezitis said.
The study was published online Dec. 30 in the journal JAMA Neurology.
More information
The U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases has more about hypothyroidism.

Holiday Inn Hotel, Batam

Top Local Tips for Batam
By ferry from Singapore The ferries from Singapore will go to Waterfront City (where Holiday Inn is located) via Sekupang. So listen out and look before you get off the ferry.
Taxis - Try not to book them! Holiday Inn Resort to Nagoya(Main Town) or Mega Mall Batam Centre will cost S$14 or RP 80K (Fixed Price!) Getting around the city will costs RP 20K (standard price, the drivers say) even for a short distance. At Nagoya, met 2 drivers who asked if we want to book them and they'll wait for us to do our massage, shopping and food for RP 100k. Thinking it was a good deal, we booked the taxi and turned out to be a BIG MISTAKE. At the end, they argued for RP 150k per taxi, saying we diverted for food. Mind you, we just treated them to a RP 133k meal! How unappreciative! Anyhow we regretted asking them to join us for dinner. Instead of sitting with us (6 of us), they sat at the other table. Thinking they were shy,we let them ordered their own food. When footing the bill, we were shocked! They had ordered 2 medium size plates of prawns! Not wanted to make a scene we paid and just take it as a lesson learnt. If you want to treat your drivers, please order for them according to your budget!
Consideration Please consdier before you book!
