A word from The Little Aussie Bakery & Cafe
While we are 100% gluten free, our influences are Australian and European, and very much from the home kitchen. We prepare our meals from scratch. While healthy eating is a big part of what we do. We believe that this does not mean that the enjoyment of food is in any way compromised. We are all about comfort foods, slow roasted meats, meat pies, pasta bakes, lamb sandwiches, colorful salads, and dessert cakes that are to die for. And you know it really doesn"t matter whether you have food allergies or not. You are in for a treat.Continued

The Little Aussie Bakery & Cafe reviews from OpenTable diners
- Not a friendly place.DisappointedDined on 7/26/2014Very unhappy with service and treatment by staff. I would not recommend anyone going there for dining in.
- Hidden Gem for the Special Diet!RebelcamDined on 6/22/2014The Little Aussie Bakery & Café was the #1 rated gluten-free dining recommendation on "Find Me Gluten-Free" and there's a reason. The food was incredible! My wife has Celiac Disease and must have gluten-free food. This was her destination dining experience. The Little Aussie is 100% gluten-free and absolutely delicious! We ate there twice simply because it was that great. The Sunday Brunch was a revelation in great food. We went back 2 days later for lunch and had an even better meal. They make awesome desserts that don't look or taste like gluten-free! It's a little off the beaten path next to Brackenridge Park, but worth seeking out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great brunch for Father's DayOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/15/2014Not what I was expecting, but a plasent surprise and enjoyable brunchSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great change of pace.signoret76VIPDined on 5/30/2014Good lunch with unique options. Quiet home like atmosphere. Will return.Special Features:
- Delicious & Hits the Spot! WORTHY!TakeUrTimeWhenUdineDined on 5/25/2014My visit to the Aussie Bakery & Cafe, even after the NPR report, was a pleasant experience with the tone being set by the person behind the register who was beaming with a beautiful smile & great attitude. After being at another restaurant up the street & around the corner which was chaotic, at best, it was so nice to walk into a laid back chill atmosphere. The service is good. The food, expeditiously served, was close to perfect as eggs are difficult to cook & bacon was missing to this otherwise great meal for those who might be watching the figure or expectant mothers.As I have zero expectations of any of my experiences and always pleasantly surprised, The Aussie Bakery & Cafe IS a neighborhood gem that pleasantly surprises! Keep it up!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best GF bread this New Yorker had!GFintexasDined on 4/13/2014I went to this place on Sunday and ordered off the brunch menu. This place was so cute. A little house converted into this bakery/ cafe. You order and pay at the counter and select any table you like. We were then greeted by our waitress who was from Baltimore and recognized my east coast accent right away. We were given the super strength coffee which was fantastic and homemade gf biscuits to start. They offer count cream for the coffee incase of any dairy allergies. After our bacon egg and cheeses arrived one of the employees came around with a basket of the most amazing goat cheese, onion biscuits; they were warm, gooey, and just fantastic!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gluten Free VenuesmithairsmithDined on 4/10/2014The Little Aussie Bakery and Cafe is totally committed to gluten free dining. It's quaint and intimate but has very specific hours. Rita and John are the essence of the establishment.Special Features:
- Gluten free heavenmanchamomDined on 3/30/2014It isn't often a restaurant mets the needs of the gluten free and the food is still wonderful but Little Aussie does it hands down. The food is wonderful and full of flavor. The salad dressings are fresh and light, the waffles chewy and crispy and delicious. Definitely worth the drive from Austin. And that doesn't include the desserts which are a story all by themselves.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gluten Free GemWright07Dined on 3/29/2014I went to this resteraunt because I have a gluten intolerance and was a little apprehensive about how the food would taste. The food was amazing and my family thought the food was very flavorful. Sediment lay coming back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- People nice but not very organized.Dolce4Dined on 3/14/2014I have no idea who our waitress or waiter was! Three people seemed to help but I had to ask for napkins and for refills. That's frustrating when your trying to have a nice meal. Getting up from table and searching for someone isnt service. Who serves pizza with no Parmesan cheese? The meal was ok but Dessert was delicious actually the star...as we sampled a few beauty's in the display case. Would I go again... Yes, but I hope next time the service improves. If your not going to serve refills put the pitcher on the table I will serve myself Pizza Hut Style!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gluten Free heaven!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/27/2014This resturant/bakery is totally gluten free and totally fabulous!! From salad to dessert everything was very tasty!

- Great Gluten Free MenusmithairsmithDined on 12/29/2013The Little Aussie Bakery and Café has a great gluten free menu especially brunch which can be difficult to find. The food was delicious and hot even our husbands(who are not gluten free) enjoyed. This is always a treat for my friend from Houston.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gluten freeAlisaDined on 9/1/2013I came here with my friend whose gluten free and it was both our first time. Everyone was really nice and provided great service not to mention the food was delicious whether you are a gluten-free person or not. I also enjoy the atmosphere; they had great music playing like jazz, blues and swing. Though I didn't get to use their free WiFi I know that I will go back to work from there sometime.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food. No gluten!GFnewbieSADined on 8/18/2013We went for brunch and it was fabulous! Quaint little place that's got about 8 tables total. Everyone is so friendly like they're bringing you into their (tiny) home. The brunch menu didn't offer a huge selection but there's something for everyone. Now for the food. I've only been gluten free for almost 4 months, I desperately crave a burger bun. The buns at this place are PHENOMI! If you've eaten gf bread before, chances are you needed a tall glass anything to gulp down that dry crumbly mess. Little Ausdie's buns are soft, spongy, moist.. I'd go as far as say better than the real thing! The quiche was yummy too. Flaky goodness. The best thing is, I can buy these at some HEBs. They even ship!Trust me and just eat it. My new fave place!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Little Aussie a big bust!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/4/2012Not sure why you need a reservation. No wait service. No alcohol lisense. Should have advertised that Saturday is only pizza night. Very disorganized at register where you have to order your food and pay in advance. Not a very good way to run a business. Very poor mom and pop operation. They didnt even acknowledge our reservation but again why even make one it certainly wasnt necessary. This was a special birthday that was ruined. :(
- It's a quiet little spot withOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/4/2012It's a quiet little spot with a focus on serving great tasting food to finicky people. They do gluten-free with flair. Only EVOO. The mango chicken is the best chicken I've had in forever.Special Features:

- I REALLY love going to thiskellyDined on 5/18/2012I REALLY love going to this restaurant. The only reason I gave the service 3 stars was because there was only one waitress on that night. She was EXCELLENT so no issues there but she was just trying to serve 6 tables by herself. I know they're looking for help so hopefully once they hire more waitresses or waiters that will improve. Food is always excellent!!!!! I reserved through Open Table and there was even a "reserved" sign on my table when I went in. How cool is that? :)

Cake was awesome! Bread is good. French toast was good. Prices are high for french toast and and egg sandwich at $10 each with no sides. Service was slow, server forgot about us - I had to go look for napkins. Not offered water or refill on coffee. If I were local I would def go for cake. Website offered free loaf of bread to first time visit.When I mentioned all played dumb. Conveniently, removed from website after. If I had a good exp I might be int in ordering.
- Haven for the Gluten intolerantOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/29/2011I was a bit sceptical when I was told about this place but I thought if I could find somewhere with decent gluten free bread it would be worth it. It is a very cute place small but it has personality. The food was good and you couldn't really tell that everything was gluten free. I got some sandwich buns to take home and if you toast them with a little butter they come out crispy and delicious best sandwiches I've had since becoming gluten free. The service was a bit slow, there was only one waitress but she was very energetic and pleasant,overall this is a great place for all of us with a gluten intolerance.
- Terrible BrunchOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/18/2011I am not sure what they are good at but they should definitely not serve breakfast/brunch.

River's good friend to leave FOR post
John Tippett, the face of the Friends of the Rappahannock for nearly two decades, is stepping down as executive director to seek treatment for complications from Lyme disease.
The Fredericksburg-based river conservation group announced on Friday that the 46-year-old Tippett, who joined FOR in 1995 and has been working part time in recent months, will stay on until a search committee finds his replacement.
Tippett said Friday that he became chronically ill in 2005, then found out that he had contracted neurologic Lyme disease—a tick-borne illness that can be debilitating for a small percentage of patients.
"I kind of agonized over this," he said. "The disease comes in waves. You take the good hours when you can get them. At this point, I'm only able to put in a few hours a day because of the way the disease robs your energy. I can't do justice to the job working a couple hours a day."
Also, "I need to start pursuing alternative treatments. I've been really giving all the energy I have to the job," said Tippett, who is married with two children.
FOR staffers have known for some time that the boss was ill. Tippett told them Wednesday about his plan to step down.
"This has been an incredibly hard decision to make, but it's the right one for me, my family and the organization," he said.
"Over the past two decades we've built an exceptionally talented staff of environmental professionals. We've grown from working in just the Fredericksburg region to serving the Rappahannock from the mountains to the bay."
Rich McDaniel, chairman of the FOR executive committee, said in a press release that Tippett made huge strides for the organization.
"John has brought FOR from its infancy into a leading environmental force in Virginia. It's going to be incredibly hard to replace him," McDaniel said.
"All of us on the executive committee wish John the best in his recovery efforts."
Bill Micks, a founding member of Friends of the Rappahannock and co-owner of the Virginia Outdoor Center, said Tippett has been a strong advocate for the river.
"Here's a guy who decided to make this area his home, raise his family here and devote his life to this river," Micks said. "I don't think anybody in Virginia has done so much to work the kind of magic John has."
The FOR executive committee will soon begin a search process for a new executive director in hopes of having Tippett's successor selected by August. He plans to work in a part-time advisory role after the search has concluded.
"We're very sad. John has kind of been the rock in the center here," Gretchen Reiser, administrative assistant and bookkeeper, said after the announcement.
She joined FOR in 2007.
"John's energy is so good, and he's such a kind man. He cares so much about the mission, the people who work here," she said. "We call it 'Team Rappahannock.'"
Tippett was 27 when he joined FOR in May 1995, 10 years after it was founded by a group of area conservationists. He built on the work of the first two executive directors, Warren Wise and Linda Porter, expanding the focus from the Fredericksburg area to the entire river.
FOR's programs now reach from the headwaters to the Chesapeake Bay.
FOR volunteers have planted stream buffers and erected fences for farmers on the upper Rappahannock and Rapidan rivers.
Three years ago, FOR hired a tidal river steward to keep an eye on water quality, sources of pollution and other issues on the lower section. Its current focus is on the prospect of hydraulic fracturing for gas in the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula.
Tippett and FOR were instrumental in the removal of the Embrey Dam in 2004 to benefit migratory fish, and in the creation of a conservation easement that protects more than 4,200 acres of land along the Rappahannock and Rapidan rivers.
Under Tippett's stewardship, FOR worked with local governments and developers on low-impact development ordinances that were among the first in the state.
FOR's education programs connect with more than 8,000 students in local schools each year. Among other projects: FOR volunteers take water-quality samples and construct rain barrels. More recently, it began working with homeowners install rain gardens to keep polluted runoff out of the river.
Tippett grew up on Accokeek Creek along the Potomac River in southern Maryland.
"I knew from an early age, I wanted to have a career somehow related to protecting the water," he said.
A graduate of Allegany College of Maryland, with a master's in environmental resources management from Duke University, Tippett came to FOR after a few years working as an environmental consultant.
"I saw where things were really happening with nonprofit conservation groups," he said, and the opportunity to make a difference.
"I had a great desire to find a group that was interested in not just being reactive, but proactive."
Rusty Dennen: 540/374-5431
The nonprofit Friends of the Rappahannock was created 29 years ago in Fredericksburg "to maintain the water quality, living resources, and scenic beauty of the Rappahannock River and its tributaries," according to its mission statement.
With an annual budget of about $600,000, FOR, its members and volunteers support education, advocacy and conservation in the region.

As summer weather is now starting to warm up in the Weyburn region, the threat of West Nile virus will begin to be a risk to area residents as well.
According to Sask. Health officials, the risk typically peaks between mid-July and September, and is transmitted through the bite of infected Culex tarsalis mosquitoes.
The City of Weyburn has two traps set up to collect mosquitoes, with the samples sent in to Sask. Health; one trap is at the Leisure Centre, and the other is at Hillcrest Cemetery; in addition, the province has a trap at the Community Health Services building on the former Souris Valley grounds.
The surveillance results from the week of July 12 show no infected pools have been found so far this year, but with heat increasing, the development of this species will increase from now into August.
"The number of infected Culex tarsalis mosquitoes may rise quickly if we get prolonged hot, dry weather in July and August," said Phil Curry, provincial coordinator for the West Nile Virus program. "If you plan to be outside when mosquitoes are active, take precautions to protect yourself from bites."
People are reminded to take precautions to protect themselves against the virus throughout the summer. Those enjoying the outdoors in parks, recreational venues, campgrounds and sporting events need to take precautions, as do farmers and others who work outside, especially in the evening.
Most people who become infected with West Nile Virus experience no immediate symptoms or have very mild illness (fever, headaches, body aches).
A small number of people develop more serious illness called West Nile Virus neuroinvasive disease, which includes encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain. The elderly and people with certain medical conditions are at higher risk of developing the severe form of West Nile infection.
"Most West Nile infections usually improve on their own, so there is no need to seek medical attention or to get laboratory tests," said Dr. Denise Werker, Saskatchewan's deputy chief medical health officer.
"However, if you develop serious symptoms such as severe headaches, persistent high fever with stiff neck, confusion, seizures or paralysis, see a health care provider immediately," she added.
The following preventative measures are recommended to minimize exposure to mosquito bites:
• Use appropriate insect repellent with DEET when outdoors;
• Cover up; wear light-coloured, loose-fitting, long-sleeved tops and long pants when outdoors;
• Reduce the amount of time spent outdoors between dusk and dawn when Culex tarsalis mosquitoes are most active.
Around the home, people are also encouraged to clear yards of refuse items that collect water, including eavestroughs and bird baths, pails, old tires and so on; keep bushes and shrubs clear of overgrowth and debris; and make doors and window screens fit tightly and are free of holes.

Tuscaloosa, AL--Coach Nick Saban and his guys are getting set for a rather big road trip, one that takes them to the Keystone State. Coming off the opening win Saturday over Kent State, the Tide now looking forward to a game against Penn State.
Alabama looking pretty solid in the win 3 days ago, though it's obvious there's plenty to work on, both the players and Saban will tell you that.
No doubt this road trip will provide a much tougher test, Saban adding his guys better not believe this is the same Penn State team they beat last year 24-3.
Nick Saban
Alabama Head Coach
"They seem like they play faster. The circumstances last year, it was real hot, it probably affected them a little bit. They have more experience, the quarterback is playing better which is probably the biggest key offensively. They have three very good runners. The strength of their team is probably the three returning receivers that were all very productive last year. They have 7 starters back on defense."
Penn State opened the season with a win similar to Bama's, the Lions beating Indiana State 41-7. That game up in Happy Valley, Tide by the way favored by 9.

If Connecticut, Then Fiction
I think it was not fit,
but friction, when his limbs brushed
my back, he was already rushing, running, resisting.
I was writing and he was life,
a teacher; a man whose shirt was always unbuttoned
one button too low. He was showing me how,
in fact, I was wanting you. Now he is not wanting
to know me, now I am growing away from him, now I am
going where I am wanted.
He was younger than you, yet, there was such richness
in rest or rant or wanting. There was my writing.
Life Writing
"What do you know?"
said the sister to the writer.
"A writer is a little island, a summer land,
what is a writer in winter?"
"What was I, when I was your age?"
I was torn."
"Who are you, when you are not writing?
You are the listener, the reader, the other."
"A writer is only one who writes.
Who I am, when I am not writing?"
"What does it mean to be a mature writer?
You should learn there are no mistakes only poems."
"When I am writing, I am talking to you,
who are you?"
"When you are not writing, you are talking to me.
Who am I?"
"Why do you ask?"
"I am still torn; bitterness is also basic to us."
"Well yes, we are twin cultures, where a poem
can be a puzzle, like a chemistry problem."
"Either is interplay between the part
More Trees
Here is a tree that is her horse away
from home; it carries her a way from her
home pain,this roaning out gelding, bay.
Sitting at sixteen two hands; she is higher,
safer from ants and students alike. She
is resting with her horse before the course.
She must be quiet and still for the tree
like a horse can sleep standing up, an old horse
can turn into one of the trees dotting the field.
She doesn't stand on the second branch, it is sway
-backed, so she won't pain the animal that way.
She is tender towards the tree, and he still yields
in a rustling of leaves and legs, he comes
to love; he wants to be her treehouse, horse, home.
Tree Three
She and the tree be together
in the afternoon sun. She is gently
fingering its bark; the tree is thinking only
about her. How her hands are slow travelers
on its trunk. Her hands are soft though
her feet are tough. It is the first time for the tree
being climbed. Can I hold her? wonders the tree.
Will my twigs tear? worries the tree. Oh!
She is sitting now, in the understory.
Here is a tree feeling human flesh resting,
neither perching, nor running, just resting.
She is starting to imagine a story,
where the branch before her is the neck of a horse.
Here is a tree that thinks itself a horse.
The Tree Continued
Here is a tree drowsing;
there she is, walking along the trail.
She is singular, thinks the tree,
a human, out in the heat, without a dog.
Humans, like dogs and birds, are pests, the tree thinks
heat makes humans smell most foul.
She has walked too far into the mid-west sun,
too far away from the university.
She lets out a sigh of relief
after laying her cheek against the trunk
its thick bark. The tree is learning it can offer relief,
if not to itself, to another, and that is a sort of power.
She is not nesting or shitting; she is only
resting; she and the tree together.
The Tree
Here is a tree hoping
to be struck by lightening.
It seeks relief from these dog days,
when more water is rushing away than
is rushing toward it. The river is leaving;
the tree can not.
The tree is feeling invisible, to everything
Save the sun.
Once a friend, the sun is now a foe.
Isn't dehydration, under the summer sun,
the worst way to die?
Here is a tree wanting
to flee from life, it was wanting to
flee from suffering, until she came into its life.
Copper Mine
If horses were wishes…
I would have taken the horse
on trial, for two weeks before I left for Iowa City.
Would he stay sound?
He has four off-white hooves and they have tender frogs
in the spring grass. I've never had a horse with so much chrome.
He was very fancy.
How would I win the hack?
This horse would tell me how to ride him, not why. His mouth was soft,
but his head was hard.
Was he too much horse for me?
Sometimes, I would have to be closing my fingers on the curb chain,
hoping to hold him back, back him off, half halt. I must make contact from
my hands to his head. I was afraid of failing.
This horse as he was?
I was afraid of falling from him. I was afraid of falling for him.
What do I know?
I am afraid of heights, though this horse, he has kind eyes.
How like a bridge is a horse truly?
A horse can carry a person across a bridge, closing up the distance.
Oh dear, difference is seductive.
I need a goat,
to eat the gifts,
of the first year of my relationship,
I thought.
knee socks,
green and pink lemons,
a solar powered butterfly,
et cetera …
Once, I was green.
I know better
of our growth together,
the second year of our relationship
the goat.
I will leave
the real baby goat at Bartlett's Farm,
April Fools,

When it comes to clothing, you don't need much. I don't know how many is "enough" for you, since we are all different, but I do know most people get there and find they needed less than they thought. Instead, there are some other things on your packing list you might want to give more attention to.
Things you'll want:
Sunglasses. The sun can be quite bright in Hawaii
At least two swim suits. Good to have a dry one to put on if your other is still wet.
Comfortable (but cheap) beachwear. Stuff that you can throw on, don't care whether it gets sand on it or gets wet and is easy to change in and out of. If you can't find anything at home, there will be places to get beachwear on Kauai. Light colors are best. You'll roast in black or dark blue.
A couple of big T-shirts for snorkeling in (or for wearing in the water). The sun reflects off the water and while you're in there feeling pleasantly cool, unbeknownst to you, your skin will be baking. Wear T-shirts in the water so you don't spend the first 4 days of your trip in misery with sunburn.
If you are feeling adventurous and wish to hike, you'll want some sturdy shoes that can get a bit muddy or wet, or even Kauai Red Dirt stained. Whatever you do, because of that red dirt, there's no need to bring NEW or particularly nice shoes to Kauai.
Addresses of folks you want to send postcards to, along with stamps. Everyone will be delighted to receive your postcard from Kauai, right?
If you happen to own a soft-sided collapsible cooler, bring it too. It can fit in your suitcase and is great for trips around the island. It works well for some light snacks and a couple of cold sodas.
An extra bag... I find it's always a good idea to take along an extra bag (one that packs small & light but is durable) that you can pack with any extra items you might buy while on the islands, and check along with your other luggage before boarding the plane home. The suitcase often seems much fuller on the trip home, and you may need the extra space. The alternative is to buy a duffle bag while you're on Kauai to pack things in to take home.
Various sizes of zip-top baggies. Good for things like-- putting wet clothes in, sealing food & snacks in at the condo (this helps keep the ants & things away), packing food items to take to the beach, etc.
An umbrella. You may not need it, but then again, maybe you will. And if you find yourself in three days of Kauai downpour (which isn't likely but does happen) , umbrellas may be hard to find.
Sandals to wear on the beach, and everywhere else. (It's my view that except for while hiking, socks may be totally unnecessary on Kauai.) Unless you're bringing very comfortable and well worn sandals, sometimes it's good to have two pairs that fit your feet differently, in case one pairs starts chaffing or giving you blisters- You can switch to the other pair. Cheapo sandals can be bought for around $7 at WalMart or K-Mart.
Underwater Camera (if you're into photos with fish) ($10)
Water shoes (Aqua sock) if you plan to walk around in the ocean ($8)
Any beach items/accessories can be purchased on island and then you don't have lug them across the ocean (mats, lotion, etc.)
Our favorite in-flight entertainment items have become our portable DVD player with a bunch of movies from Netflix. If you like movies and are not a Netflix member, you should check it out. It works very well for traveling because you have no due dates for your movies and you can mail them back from any mailbox in Honolulu or Princeville, or wherever.

Billing-systems vendor Orga Systems has been asked to contribute its expertise to an EU-funded smart-grid project in Thailand.
The company has been running a series of training sessions about introducing cost-effective and user-friendly smart grids to the Thai market as part of the SmartThai initiative.
Owing to the success of those workshops, Thailand's Ministry of Energy has asked Orga (Paderborn, Germany) to address business-critical policy issues with the relevant government authorities.
Google will increase the cash it allocates to its venture-capital arm to up to $300 million a year from $200 million, catapulting Google Ventures into the top echelon of corporate venture-capital funds.
Access to that sizeable checkbook means Google Ventures (Mountain View, USA) will be able to invest in more later-stage financing rounds, which tend to be in the tens of millions of dollars or more per investor.
Swedish mobile-payments company iZettle has launched services in the UK through an exclusive deal with EE, the country's biggest network operator.
Under the arrangement, iZettle's mini chip-card readers will be available from any of EE's (London, UK) 297 stores or via the operator's telesales channel.
The readers can be connected to smartphones and tablets, turning the devices into mobile-payment terminals that will accept transactions via Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Diners Club.
Telefónica Digital has launched a cloud-computing service designed partly to support M2M applications for developers, digital businesses and large enterprises.
Branded Instant Servers, the service is supported by the operator's data centres in the UK and Spain and promises a service level agreement (SLA) of 99.996% with financial compensation in the event of non-compliance.
Instant Servers also allows customers to serve more workloads per virtual machine than public cloud services and thereby reduce their operating costs.
PayPal launched a price-matching offer on Thursday, following similar moves by retailers including Target Corp, as the payments giant tries to encourage more shoppers to use its service this holiday season.
If consumers purchase products with PayPal and the items are advertised for lower prices by any merchant within 30 days, PayPal said it will reimburse users the difference.
The price-matching offer includes PayPal purchases made online and in physical stores and runs through December 31, the company, owned by eBay Inc (San Jose, USA), added.
Germany's decision on whether to mandate the introduction of smart grids could make or break the European industry, according to a new study from analyst firm Berg Insight.
Germany is the only major country in Western Europe that has not required utilities to introduce smart-grid technology, and take-up has consequently been disappointing.
Equipment maker Ericsson has struck important M2M deals with TeliaSonera and MegaFon, two of the world's biggest operators, while saying the broader market for software and services is likely to generate a higher proportion of its revenues in future.
In the last few days, both operators have announced plans to use Ericsson's M2M Device Connection Platform, which should make it easier for them to manage large numbers of subscriptions and provide more flexibility to M2M partners and customers.
A group of UK technology companies including semiconductor designer ARM and network operator Cable & Wireless Worldwide is looking for new partners as it ramps up efforts to create a communications standard for M2M services.
The companies have recently set up a special interest group (SIG) to accelerate the adoption of Weightless, a royalty-free and open standard that lets machines communicate with one another over TV white-space spectrum.
A UK delegation representing companies including British Gas, BT and Vodafone this week said a new smart-grid partnership with Taiwan could help to generate more than £13 billion ($20.8 billion) in economic benefits and £5 billion in smart-grid exports for the UK economy.
The UK Smart Grid mission has been visiting Taiwan this week to establish industry and academic links with the country.
General Motors has topped a new ranking of OEM safety and security telematics vendors, beating Ford into second place and Toyota into third.

— Maya to Olivia, A Door Marked Exit
Maya Lewis is Olivia Pope's mother and Eli Pope's wife. She was killed in an airplane accident gone wrong that is starting to look more and more like the government ordered the plane to be taken down.
Marie Wallace was born in East London, to parents both linked to the Marxist liberation front. When she was 16, she fell off the grid, and began popping up all over the world under many different aliases. To her contacts overseas, Maya continued to use the name Marie Wallace. She made money by selling government secrets. In 1972, she went to the United States, under the name Maya Lewis, where she soon met Eli Pope, from whom she then began stealing C.I.A. classified documents, among others, for anti-American groups. Eventually, she married Eli and had Olivia.
Apparently, Maya, with enough knowledge about B613, was planning on returning to London, when Eli found out about her. She was taken off her plane, under the name Omar Dresden, and questioned. She told Eli that the plane she was on, which had just taken off, had a bomb on it. In a panicked move, Eli had Fitz Grant shoot down the plane, killing 329 innocent people, realizing too late that Maya lied about there being a bomb.
Eli then imprisoned Maya. For 22 years, the world and Olivia was led to believe that she was dead.
Huck came across some interesting information about the flight Maya was on when she died. At the time he was working with Jake Ballard and they put two and two together, concluding that it was a conspiracy. They took this information to Olivia who was then left stunned.
It was discovered that President Fitzgerald Grant was flying a navy plane nearby when the plane went down. The conclusion Huck & Jake came to was that the pilot shot down the passenger aircraft purposely. Fitz has neither confirmed nor denied all of this to Olivia; under the National Security Act. Olivia was twelve-years-old when she died. A trauma that still stays with her to the present day. (More Cattle, Less Bull / Icarus)
SURPRISE...SURPRISE... she's still alive but being held captive by Rowan in a secret prison. As Rowan is about to move her to another prison because their daughter - Olivia - is asking too many questions about Maya's death; she demands that she get to see Olivia before she is moved. When she realizes Rowan is not going to let her see her daughter she bites her own wrist so she can get out of her cell and into the infirmary, from there she knocks a doctor out with the very sedative he was going to inject her with so she could travel. Maya escapes the prison and surprises her daughter by showing up at her apartment. (Everything's Coming Up Mellie / Vermont is for Lovers, Too)
After stopping by Olivia's apartment, Olivia and her team try to find a place for her to hide. They decide to send her to Hong Kong. As the plane is taxiing away, Olivia has a flashback to her childhood where she remembers a phone call asking for "Marie", the name on the no fly list. Olivia realizes her mother is Marie, and her father hadn't fabricated the list of crimes on the no fly list. (YOLO)
Maya never made it to Hong Kong, she killed the flight crew and returned to D.C. Aware that Olivia, OPA and the government are looking for her she stays in hiding. But she couldn't resist to call her daughter. Maya tells Olivia everything will be alright and tosses her burner phone as she walks past 1600 Pennsylvania Ave... The White House. (A Door Marked Exit)
After President Grant's donor dinner with his new running mate, Governor Andrew Nichols Maya is waiting in a hotel room when Adnan Salif walks in the room. It appears Maya is working with Adnan. But why, and what for??? (We Do Not Touch the First Ladies)

In the meantime, here's their new video, "Music Sounds Better with U"
It makes me want a swing chair for my apartment. (My aunt had one just like that in her basement when I was little, and it was the best thing about visiting her house.)

Hiv Diagnosis Stories
Here's a taste of what TheBody.com has to offer on this topic:
Get the Facts
Coping With an HIV/AIDS DiagnosisFor most people, the hardest part of adjusting to life with HIV isn't the physical issues -- it's the emotional ones. HIV treatment has changed so drastically in recent years that the medical side of HIV has become much easier to tackle in most parts of the world. Newer HIV meds have increasingly few side effects, people on HIV treatment may live just as long as their HIV-negative counterparts , and many people need only take medications once or...

Indonesian smut vid star's arse hauled into court
Indonesia is a troubled place
Jakarta is the only city in the world were I have been offered children for sex in the center of town, just walking past the fountain neat the Mariott. Poverty causes some sick sick individuals to do some sick sick things. I think the country should clean that up before they get all hot and bothered about consenting adults having a bit of fun.
Google's 'copied Java code' disowned by Apache
The code presented by Oracle for comparison looks very much like a decompile to me. When you decompile Java, you can get the name of private, protected and public variables, but you can't get the name of method parameters. Hence, the structure is almost 100% identical, but the variables that rely on method parameters are truncated to simple names.
So, this "proof" is not a copy - it is a decompile.
Lone Android dev 'almost brought down T-Mobile'
So you are one of these people who know everything??
Being a dev - I can assure you that we try to learn as much as we can about the environment into which we deploy. But in the present day and age, that environment is so large and diverse that things just happen unintentionally. That is not incompetence. Lack of experience maybe - but you only get experience from making mistakes. Don't confuse the two.
Google Android chief smacks Steve Jobs with Linux speak
I liked my iPhone - but I like my Android Nexus One better
When I first got my iPhone I really loved it. But then I discovered over time just how costly it can be to buy everything from a single controlled market. And then there was the whole tethering issues and Skype over 3G.
I like my Android much better (at least now that I have it on stock Google software instead of Vodafone's "improved" one). Apart from being a portable WiFi hotspot whenever I need it, the other main reason is that even though I'm not hacking it - other people are. And that creates some great apps. For example: Free navigation is not available on the Android phone in Australia (presumably due to some licensing issues). But some clever developers hacked the maps app (renamed it "brut") and made navigation available anywhere in the world based on Google maps data. It works great, has voice instructions and best of all: It is free. It is not even in the Google market - you just download it directly to your phone from their web site and you are all set.
Yes - I may be a freetard to some - but so what? I've been able to ditch the TomTom, the 3G dongle and just use one device.
Japanese customs dish out free dope
This could be the ultimate nightmare
Imagine this happening to you in Indonesia or Thailand.. And then you get 20 year or life, because the official is too embarrased to own up.
At least in this case the officer was up front. Might not happen in all cultures.
(That is me checking my pockets for weed before going through customs..)
HP faces lawsuit by three News.com reporters
Do reporters have a right to privacy?
Reporters always wants it both ways: When they pursue someone for a story it is "free speech" or "public interest" - when they get pursued for what they do, it is "invasion of privacy".
Before you label me "flamebait" or "troll", think it through. If you continue to assert a right to invade anyone's privacy whenever you see fit (basically in the pursuit of improving your career or making money for your employer) - well then you can't really cry foul when someone does a similar thing to you in pursuit of their own goals - whatever their motives. It should be considered an occupational hazard and nothing more.
If the reporters get away with this, what is stopping Prince Harry, Paris Hilton or Tony Blair suing reporters in a similar way?
