From ESPN The Magazine's Craig Custance: I'm hearing that Caps sniper Alexander Semin is as good as gone after this season, so if Caps don't want to let him walk for nothing, they have to at least consider moving him today. Don't think it's likely though.

Face-Off: Is Miley Cyrus a Virgin?by Free Britney at . Comments
We've already debated which young Disney star is the next Miley Cyrus. But for this afternoon's Face-Off, our staff focuses on a different question regarding young starlet. Specifically, whether she's still as pure as we're led to believe...
YES by Hilton Hater
In a world of sex tapes and naked photos, Miley Cyrus is as pure as a fresh snowfall.
The allegedly racy photos of the young singer never depict her in anything less than underwear. That would be considered bundling up for truly promiscuous celebs such as Tila Tequila.
If Miley says she's a virgin, I see no reason to disbelieve her. What proof does anyone have to the contrary? A Vanity Fair photo shoot featuring her covered by a sheet?
Aside from Cyrus' word, let's look at her schedule. She's often on tour. She's the star of her own TV show. When would Miley even have time to find a boyfriend and build up the sort of trust needed to allow him into her precious garden of love?
Miley Cyrus has given us such hit songs as "7 Things" and "See You Again."
The least we can do in return is give her the benefit of the virginal doubt.
NO by Free Britney
Years ago, a fresh-faced teen burst onto the scene with a catchy sound and a clean image, leading us to believe she was saving herself for marriage.
Turns out she gave up her v-card at age 14 to some dude named Reg Jones.
Reg was the first of many, many men to get in Britney Spears' pants. Is Miley Cyrus destined to fall apart and end up under involuntary psychiatric hold like Britney? Probably not. But wake up, people - you're being conned.
"But, Free Britney, she wears a purity ring," you say! Oh, right, how can I forget.
What is this, Lord of the Rings? I hate to break it to you, but other than subversive mind-control over parents who read about it and decide Miley's music is therefore appropriate for their teenagers' ears, said ring has no actual power.
Miley, The Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato are all corporate drones pimped by a cutthroat media conglomerate and the purity ring nonsense is but a Disney company line. It's called marketing. End of story.
But forget these theories. Look at the conduct Miley herself has displayed.
Miley nearly took it all off for Annie Leibovitz - who's heinous - with her father right there! Think Lucas Till can't get in her pants after a few wine coolers and some slow, seductive music while Billy Ray's outta town?
The supposedly virginal Miley Cyrus in some of her best photos.
OMG,what the heck happend to her?!I know she is not a little Disney star but,c'mon! It's not a crime to have a picture in bikini but nacked pictures in the hotels?Smoking?
Also,I understand that is she not a virgin...so what? But maybe she really got out of the line.Nasty comments on Twitter like:Am I pregnant or dead?!
Maybe is she tired of all Disney attention,but she dosen't need to be a hore to prove it.What about others?And her videos?At least,if she fail like a star she will always be on the top in the porn industry!
GET A LIFE.If you don't believe what she say, then you may all go to hell and no body will care.I love Miley and that what matters.
For rizzle my gizzle, lil miley cizzle is no virgizzle my nizzle. She sizzled the first drizzle that she foshizzled in this bizzle, you fizzle? My nizzle, quit tryin to hizzle in this bizzle, it's her life, so quitin fizzllin aroun in her affizle, yeaight, son!
Ok, she may or may not be but one things for sure fellas, i'm NOT!
Wtf.. U f****n ppl r so F****n s****d, u thin that b**ch is a f****n virgin!!! Hahaha, yea right, i bet that her f****n first bf Dvirginized her!!!!!
Wtf.. U f****n ppl r so F****n s****d, u thin that b**ch is a f****n virgin!!! Hahaha, yea right, i bet that he f****n first bf Dvirginized her!!!!!
OMG all you people need to mind your business virgin or not it is her life to live how she wants. I bet every one of you don't like being judged by people you don't know so don't judge her. And get a life.
Miley is stupid!i dont know why im even on here
WOW! people still commenting on this post almost 2 and a half years after it's created LMAO PEDOS I know you were searching miley nude pics and this came up
yes she is a virgin. ppl should stfu about her. leave her alone. im not a luver of her, yet im not a hater. its her life. let her do what she wants. i bet none of you know her personally. she can act, and do whatever she wants. let her! its HER life!

Hello everyone, hope you're doing great.
Im new to your forum, so If Im doing something wrong please tell me and will surely change it!
I've gotten to page 206 of your "Build your own website the right way...." And so far Its been awesome I was not used to doing websites(I'm more of a mobile programmer) and said, heck, lets learn websites!
So far Its awesome, I've got my design perfectly but I've had this in my head since I opened the book.
I want to create a image displayer on the main page.
Something like this: www.gameplanet.com(or amazon.com block that shows an offer with arrows on the sides)
You can see that there's a part just below the search bar that displays images, there's img1 being displayed, 5 seconds, switch to img2.
(You can also see there's # of circles below the image displayer to click and rewind/forward to next images.)
What Im asking is...How do I tackle this?
Am I looking at any CSS/HTML coding or am I looking more into javaScript?
If so, does anyone know where I could start?(A tutorial, video or something to achieve this?)
I hope I'm explaining myself.
Thank you guys for your time!(The book's going awesome for me!)
Have a great day!

A perennial favorite of children and adults alike (not to mention budget-wise college students), grape jelly is the perfect solution for tempering the innate tartness of grapes. Spread heavily over peanut butter, grape jelly aids in producing what is arguably the ultimate quick and tasty sandwich. It also pairs flawlessly when matched with a spicy chili sauce and poured over meatballs, producing a robust appetizer. Of course, it's also quite good straight out of the jar, thank you very much!
|lb. Concord or red grapes
|cup water
|tsp. dry pectin
|cups granulated sugar
|A jelly bag or cheesecloth
Variation: To impart a bit of unexpected herbal vigor to your jelly, consider adding herbs de Provence. Named after the sunny region in southern France, the herbal blend consists of varying amounts of bay leaf, thyme, fennel, rosemary, chervil, oregano, summer savory, tarragon, mint, marjoram, and lavender. Place 1 tablespoon dried herbes de Provence in a muslin pouch, secure at the top, and add to the grape mixture after the sugar has dissolved. Remove once the mixture begins to gel, and process as above.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Virginia Commonwealth University is leading a research effort to improve access to AIDS drugs.
Officials say a $4.4 million grant from Bill & Melinda Gates is giving the Richmond school and other research universities an opportunity to supply developing countries with affordable access to AIDS drugs.
The collaboration, known as the Medicine for All Initiative, includes specialists from the University of Washington, Florida State University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The team will focus on cost improvements for the drug nevirapine. The World Health Organization considers nevirapine a first-line therapy for the treatment of AIDS.
Officials say the project will help develop new synthetic and manufacturing methods, providing necessary health care to those in need.

Never ignore a person who loves you, cares for you, and misses you
Your Family is your business, Mankind is your business
December 24, 2012 9:02 am / 2 Comments
Your Family is your business, Mankind is your business
by Enzo Calamo
As this is the Holiday season, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.
The other night I was watching Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol movie starring George C. Scott as Scrooge. One of the most impactful moments in the movie is when Scrooge tells Marley's ghost, "But you were always a good man of business, Jacob." Upon which Marley's ghost cries out in anguish:
Business! Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence were all my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!
With that simple statement, Marley's ghost teaches Scrooge, and all of us, three very important life lessons:
1) Real assets in the world are people, not possessions;
2) Your family is the first place that you experience true love and care. As a baby, and as a child, whether your memories are good or bad, you were completely dependent on others. In today's aging world, many of our seniors are also completely dependent on others again. Is it not time that we learn that love is based on our ability of loving and caring for the living, who can love us back, AND keeping alive the memories of our loved ones who left us too soon? Material things will NEVER love us back!
3) Fulfilling your life purpose and helping others, not accumulating profits, should be man's highest aims.
In an article Nothing Beats Family, posted on www.Inspire21.com, Ridgely Goldsborough addresses the importance of family as follows:
I'm deeply troubled by the number of parents who wake up too late with the realization: "My children grew up too fast. In the hustle-bustle of career and corporate rat race, I missed their childhood." What they fail to say but too often inwardly think causes me even more pain: "…and I barely even know them."This applies to couples as well – so in a hurry to get who-knows-where – a destination seldom defined. Relationships turn into co-habitations, romance into convenience. Very disturbing.
A hundred years from now, no one will remember the size of your bank account, the car you drove or the square footage of your house. The world might differ greatly however, based on your impact in the life of a small child. Your life will most certainly improve, if you pay attention to your significant other, make the choice to put her or him first. Your example will benefit the rest of us. Our world cries out for role models and heroes of every day living. What could you do today to let your loved ones know how much they mean to you? What will you do tomorrow? And the next day?
The following inspirational story, by author Jeff Davis at the Brobdingnagian Bards, further highlights the importance of spending time with loved ones:
The older I get, the more I enjoy Saturday mornings. Perhaps it's the quiet solitude that comes with being the first to rise, or maybe it's the unbounded joy of not having to be at work. Either way, the first few hours of a Saturday morning are most enjoyable.
A few weeks ago, I was shuffling toward the basement shack with a steaming cup of coffee in one hand and the morning paper in the other. What began as a typical Saturday morning, turned into one of those lessons that life seems to hand you from time to time. Let me tell you about it.
I turned the dial up into the phone portion of the band on my ham radio in order to listen to a Saturday morning swap net. Along the way, I came across an older sounding chap, with a tremendous signal and a golden voice. You know the kind-he sounded like he should be in the broadcasting business. He was telling whoever he was talking with something about "a thousand marbles".
I was intrigued and stopped to listen to what he had to say. "Well, Tom, it sure sounds like you're busy with your job. I'm sure they pay you well but it's a shame you have to be away from home and your family so much. Hard to believe a young fellow should have to work sixty or seventy hours a week to make ends meet. Too bad you missed your daughter's dance recital."
He continued, "Let me tell you something Tom, something that has helped me keep a good perspective on my own priorities."
And that's when he began to explain his theory of a "thousand marbles." "You see, I sat down one day and did a little arithmetic. The average person lives about seventy- five years. I know, some live more and some live less, but on average, folks live about seventy-five years."
"Now then, I multiplied 75 times 52 and I came up with 3900 which is the number of Saturdays that the average person has in their entire lifetime. Now stick with me Tom, I'm getting to the important part."
"It took me until I was fifty-five years old to think about all this in any detail", he went on, "and by that time I had lived through over twenty-eight hundred Saturdays. I got to thinking that if I lived to be seventy-five, I only had about a thousand of them left to enjoy."
"So I went to a toy store and bought every single marble they had. I ended up having to visit three toy stores to round-up 1000 marbles. I took them home and put them inside of a large, clear plastic container right here in the shack next to my gear. Every Saturday since then, I have taken one marble out and thrown it away."
"I found that by watching the marbles diminish, I focused more on the really important things in life. There is nothing like watching your time here on this earth run out to help get your priorities straight."
"Now let me tell you one last thing before I sign-off with you and take my lovely wife out for breakfast.
This morning, I took the very last marble out of the container. I figure if I make it until next Saturday then I have been given a little extra time. And the one thing we can all use is a little more time."
"It was nice to meet you Tom, I hope you spend more time with your family, and I hope to meet you again here on the band. 75 year Old Man, this is K9NZQ, clear and going QRT, good morning!"
You could have heard a pin drop on the band when this fellow signed off. I guess he gave us all a lot to think about. I had planned to work on the antenna that morning, and then I was going to meet up with a few hams to work on the next club newsletter. Instead, I went upstairs and woke my wife up with a kiss. "C'mon honey, I'm taking you and the kids to breakfast."
"What brought this on?" she asked with a smile. "Oh, nothing special, it's just been a long time since we spent a Saturday together with the kids. Hey, can we stop at a toy store while we're out? I need to buy some marbles."
During this holiday season, it would be wise for us to remember the words of Robert Louis Stevenson:
That Person is a Success
Who has lived well,
laughed often and loved much;
Who has gained the respect of intelligent people
and love of children;
Who has filled his or her niche
and accomplished his or her task;
Who leaves the world better than he or she found it,
whether by improved poppy, a perfect poem,
or a rescued soul;
Who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty
or failed to express it.
Who looked for the best in others
and gave the best he or she had.
Happy Holidays to everyone!!!!!!!!!

Before we look at the post-boomers, we need to know that the boomers will keep fundraisers busy at least three more decades. They are wealthier in total and per household than any previous generation and are just now coming into prime giving ages. For now and for several decades, these boomers will increasingly become the prime prospects for charitable giving (both inter vivos and testamentary). They will receive the greatest wealth transfer in history. But a substantially larger transfer wealth will be given by them than was given to them.

Schwalbe Rocket Ron Mountain TireWhen going fast matters, you need a tire that delivers. One like Schwalbe's Rocket Ron mtb tire, for instance. It's lightweight, so it gets up to speed quickly. It has incredible grip, allowing you to maintain your speed in corners. And the open tread design is self-cleaning, should you happen to do your speed demoning in wet conditions. If it has any weaknesses, those would be its limited puncture protection and moderate durability. But like they say, live fast, die young.
- Delivers outstanding traction in hardpack, loose and soft conditions
- A lightweight and easy rolling tire for competition
- Positive knob engagement for confidence in the turns
- Excellent wet-weather performance

Can I pre-infuse by pressing the single shot or continuous brew button and then stopping it when the first drop comes out?
Can this machine steam and brew at the same time? I find that if I steam first, the foam rises and all comes out at the end in a blob. We have a Salvatore at work which does both simultaneously and I am spoiled. This machine would be my choice if it does both.
Do you carry anything similar that is plastic so it doesn't cool down the shot so much?

The color is very nice and it is foam insulated. The draw pole that was attached came off in dryer thus I gave rating only 4 stars. Had to reattach pole. Had to wash drape to get wrinkles out and must iron.
I bought 2 panels for my living room window. It's a large window (110 in. wide). I definitely wanted a maroon colored, thermal covering. This was the only extra-wide covering I could find anywhere, and I'm very happy I found it. I love that it darkens my large living room. I regret not purchasing the recommended rod for it though. I opted for a cheap one at a local discount store, in order to save money. My cheap rod is too light that I had to use 4 brackets to hold it up. Now I can't open up the 2 panels wide towards the outside of the window. I have to just let 2 panels hang in the center of my window.
For sliding door, very nice.
Beautiful on my patio doors. I don't really like the seam in the middle but otherwise I love the product.
I bought this for my mom's sliding glass doors. When I ironed the panel, to remove the wrinkles, the fabric stained with iron marks all over it. You could not see these marks until you hung it up on the rod and the light brought them out. This was horrible. The iron was on the synthetic setting, too. Very dissappointing.

One of my favourite afternoon treats (assuming I am not on a diet at the time) is a slice of coffee and walnut cake taken with a rich dark expresso coffee. This recipe is one of my personal favourites. Its unashamedly rich and delicious – a lovely dark walnut cake topped with espresso infused butter cream. A sure fire way of impressing your friends, most especially if you serve them the traditional large wedge
This particular cake is perfect when prepared using Coffechino Coffee Beans
225 grams unsalted butter
225 grams unrefined caster sugar
225 grams self raising flour
75 grams walnuts
50 ml espresso coffee
4 large fresh eggs
1 tsp fine sea salt
Coffee Butter Cream
200 grams icing sugar, sifted
125 grams unsalted butter, room temperature
50 ml espresso coffee
6 walnuts, halved
Preheat the oven to 180ºC, 160ºC fan assisted, 350ºF, Gas Mark 4
Grease two 20 cm sandwich tins, line with greaseproof paper, lightly grease the paper
- Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
- Add the eggs – one at a time – beating well between each addition.
- Mix in the coffee.
- Sift in the flour and salt, add the walnuts, stir until combined.
- Transfer to the prepared sandwich tins, smooth out with a palette knife.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a light golden colour – a fine skewer inserted into the centre of the cake will come away clean if the cake is ready.
- Take out of the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely
- Meanwhile, prepare the butter cream.
Butter Cream
- Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, add the coffee and mix until well combined.
To assemble
- Sandwich the cakes together with half of the butter cream, spread remainder over the top then decorate the outside edge of the cake with the walnut halves.

Deputy PM: Rip up Snoop Charter, 'go back to the drawing board'
Re: @Tom 38 "I recently did jury service..."
There is no published case where having these "new laws" would make a difference to the outcome of the case or the evidence presented.
Do you want to revise that? How precisely do you enumerate the number of cases that could be proven by collecting new evidence, without collecting the evidence. Not many people leave court and then say "Hah! Suckers! If you'd had my IM logs, I'd be doing porridge right now".
Eg, (noddy example) currently if plod think A. Burglar sold a stolen phone to A.Fence - but there is no phone records linking the two - they can't proceed due to lack of evidence. The two communicate frequently on MSN, but there is no evidence of that - there is no way for the police to see that.
With the new system, plod can see that the two talk about this stuff on IM, and could charge them - but without knowing what the data is, how can you possibly say that?
I agree fully on limiting dissemination of the information, and would limit access to this new information to the same people who can currently peruse phone records.
So what you're saying is that the existing laws enabled the authorities to connect these people to each other and the crime through their communications?
Yes, they could in this case. The point is that in this case, the existence of communication records between the defendants was what caused the conviction. It was dumb luck that the defendants chose to use phones to communicate, if they had chosen email or IMs, there would be no record of the communication, and they would have walked.
In that case, you've just undermined the need for the new law straight away haven't you?
This loophole is what the police and CPS currently have to deal with. The purpose of the new law is to allow police to investigate any communication method - email, IM, phone, VOIP - as they can currently investigate phone communications, and to close this loophole, so no, rather than undermine it, I think I've stated the case quite clearly.
PS: I don't agree with the law in it's current form either, I don't think I made that clear.
Because you've not needed it for the last 2000 years and there's no reason to suggest it would have helped in any recent incident, conviction or operation
Steady on there. Until very recently, very few conversations took place on the internet, the intent of this law is to give police the ability to do the same thing they can currently do if the conversation took place by phone.
I recently did jury service, and the key thing that connected (and convicted) the defendants was their copious phone communications and locations as reported by their phones (combined with their insistence that they didn't know each other). It is clear to me that this information is genuinely useful to convict criminals of their acts.
Iran draws veil over lolcats, launches local YouTube knock-off
Re: @AC 07:35 GMT
Suggesting that defense against Israel is a good reason for Iran to have nukes is absolutely absurd.
Israel refuses to admit it even has nukes, and if it did admit it had them, it would not give them up as it sees them as a last defence against Iran. See how that argument works?
Israel has very little motivation - read "none whatsoever" - to out-of-the-blue attack Iran just for the hell of it.
Really? It didn't take much motivation for Israel to out of the blue attack Syria over perceived nuclear ambitions.
PM Netanyahu stated just 3 months ago that he has "red lines" over Iranian nuclear development, at which point risk for Israel is "intolerable". Netanyahu and Barak have been reported by the former heads of Shin Bet and Mossad as having "belligerent" and "messianic" impulses over Iran.
When the the whole football team is threatening constantly to kill the tiny class nerd and he gets a baseball bat, do you advocate that the 300lb lineman get a bat also to 'protect himself' from an unprovoked attack? Seriously?
To clarify, Israel and the US are the tiny class nerd, and Iran is the 300lb lineman? Some mistake surely? Military spending (2009): US: $663bn Saudi Arabia: $33bn Israel: $13bn Iran: 9bn (note some of US military spending is aid to Israel).
do you really subscribe to moral equivalence between Israel, the US, and Iran
Yes, pretty much actually.
I think the State of Israel is the 21st Century's Third Reich. Its degrading treatment of it's citizens, whose only crime is to be Muslim, is shocking. The conditions in Gaza are truly repugnant. The only similar situation to Gaza in the last century was the Warsaw Ghetto. That a people on which so much horror was foisted can so quickly be doing the foisting themselves is an irony of the human condition.
Iran is a rabid theocracy, with very few freedoms for it's people, I wouldn't like to live there.
The US is morally bankrupt. The poor starve whilst the rich live out their gilded lives. I've been all over the world, and I've never seen so many people eating out of bins as I saw in three weeks in Chicago.
Half the nation thinks that paying for healthcare for the less fortunate is somehow "wrong", whilst they spend more on military spending than anyone else in the world, so that they can promote their democracy and value system around the world by projecting military force.
Two of these countries have nukes, and you're a liar if you've never heard the expression "turn Tehran into a parking lot". In the current scenario, at some point - any point - Netanyahu may decide he's had enough, and nuke Tehran. Israel would be condemned, but Iran would not be able to respond back in any meaningful way. With both sides having nukes, that equation changes such that neither side has a reason to use them.
Re: @AC 07:35 GMT
This is how Iran sees the west involving itself in this:
US: Here, look Iran, you can't just go enriching uranium.
Iran: What? This is our Uranium, we dug it up here, what do you mean we can't use it?
US: Naah, don't be mental, it's far too dangerous to let your lot have any of it. Here's some the French have made
Iran: French uranium? Why would we buy french uranium, we've got our own! What if we do something you don't like and the French cut us off?
US: Hah! Don't be silly, we'll never hold the supply of fuel over you.
Iran: OK, there's just the small Israel problem.
US: Israel problem?
Iran: Yeah, you gave them a bunch of nukes, and they keep threatening to level Tehran. Not cool bro.
US: Pfft, they'd never do that, trust us.
Iran: So we can build some nukes too? MAD is required for equilibrium.
US: Crikey no, you can't have nukes because you signed the NPT, Israel never signed it, so it's fine for that right wing theocracy to have nukes - what could possibly go wrong?

A subscription warez service? I doubt it. One of the points of warez is that it is software that you are not prepared to pay money for, and so I doubt how successful such an enterprise would be.
Plus, if this was the golden age as you describe it, warez was everywhere - kickme.to/fosi - no-one was paying for it, let alone a subscription.

Re: Blimee...
100 TB is a lot more than your average guy, but it's not that much really. It's also probably not 100TB of actual storage, but 100 TB of storage with no redundancy.
I have a simple setup here with two 16 disk JBOD arrays with SAS expanders plugged into one server. Currently I have 18 disks in there, for a total of 36 TB 'headline' storage, which comes down to about 30 TB of redundant storage. If I filled the remaining bays with 4 TB drives, that would be another 80TB, easily bringing me over 100 TB - although there is no way I'm paying £50+/TB.
The JBOD arrays were second hand, only cost me around £70 each plus postage from the US.
Without going for an external chassis, you can get quite a lot of disks just by cramming them into a decent full tower case. Before I had the JBODs, this is what I had, a tower case filled with 12 disks.
You can easily find motherboards with 7 or 8 onboard SATA ports and multiple PCI-E x8 slots, and you can buy cheap 8 port SATA LSI cards from ebay for around £100, or cheap 2 port cards for around £15.
The worst downsides to doing this is that a case crammed with disks needs proper airflow, or your disks die real quick, and when a disk does die, you have to dig around in a powered off case to find the broken one.
Stallman: Ubuntu spyware makes it JUST AS BAD as Windows
Re: Very weird post respones here....
He wrote the original versions of gcc, gdb and gmake, long since replaced (even their replacements have been replaced, eg gcc -> egcs -> gcc 4 are all major rewrites).
He is responsible for emacs, and for that he can never be forgiven.
Re: All as bad as each other
If the GPL forbids only one thing, why does it take 5644 words to do it?
If you were going to answer that one, you could also follow up with why the GPL forbids the inclusion of CDDL licensed works, when the CDDL license is so open that it can be included along with BSD licensed works?
You can be stauch pro-FOSS, and still disagree with the statement "RMS is right as usual".
In this case, I agree that he is right, but on a lot of things I disagree vehemently with him, particularly over GPL.

Re: @AnotherNetNarcissist Yeah, I've got an issue with Android...
Why[sic] does "supported" mean to you?
People continue to write and update apps for it, which apparently has already stopped happening for WP8.
Eg, most of my music comes from Spotify. There is a WP7.5 spotify app; it's buggy as hell. Here is what a user of it says:
Hey guys! How about a update to this bleepty music software, actually you can't talk about it as music software, but we do not mind to wait forever and ever for updates. In other words this app just not work, actually there is much more bugs than working things. So Spotify and Microsoft how about a update that fix all those bugs and adds all those improvements? source
Allegedly, the WP7.5 Spotify app was written by "some guy" at MS, not Spotify.
Fuck it, WP7.5 is dead, I'll get WP8, that must have a decent Spotfiy app. Oh wait…

Re: Wrong tense.

If I buy an Android phone, then I know I will probably, depending on manufacturer, get support for the phone's software for years. I am fairly confident that I will still be able to get the latest apps when I want them.
If I buy an MS phone, I know that I probably won't be able to upgrade it to the 'next' version, and that as soon as the 'next' version comes out, I won't be able to get the latest apps for my phone as they are only available for the 'next' version, MS want another license payment for their new OS, and the only device that will run it is a new one.

Re: Tom 38
The manufacturer has no obligation to obey EU rules on consumer sales. So whilst you are right, all goods sold to consumers in the EU have 2 years warranty, that warranty comes from the retailer.
If the drive fails after the manufacturer warranty has expired, but before the EU mandated warranty expires, the manufacturer has no obligation to replace your broken drive (and will not), you would have to get a replacement via your retailer. Good luck with that.
Wish the HD manufacturers could break through the barrier of reliability. You only have 4 choices for cheap spinning rust these days, WD, Seagate, Hitachi and Toshiba. WD and Hitachi have 2 year warranties, Toshiba and Seagate only offer 12 month warranties.
12 months. Yes, you read it right. Seagate want you to buy a 4TB hard drive, but they don't think it will last much longer than 12 months. Mmm, my data feels safe with you Seagate.
HD manufacturers have been gouging us on price for over a year, and now they produce shit product.
Bash Street bytes: Do UK schools really need the Raspberry Pi?
Re: Lack of imagination and costing skills
Moving on. "You have to buy cases". Er no you do not, but if you feel you must use a case, why not set it as a task for woodworking or metalworking (or materials technology or whatever high faluting name it is called these days). Or why not set it as homework for each child to design a case out of lego.
Is this some sort of joke? If you didn't put them in cases, they'd all be broken within 2 weeks. You couldn't possibly have the kids make cases out of wood or metal for them - that would be 3 terms of work, only 10% would actually function correctly, and most schools have no CDT provision.
Lego is possible, but the thing with lego is you can disassemble and reassemble as required, so see earlier statement about breakage.
In fact, your entire post is largely bollocks. You've sorted the display problems by sourcing a load of second hand CRT monitors and forking out for HDMI->RGB adapters. Never mind that no-one has stacks of CRT monitors sitting around waiting for someone to say "Oh, on the off chance, do you have 30 spare 19" CRTs I can have?", you've completely missed where the actual cost is - where the fuck are you going to put all these monitors?
You've brought the per-seat cost down to £25+8, but neglected to include the cost of building a new ICT suite. Which is significantly more than £8 per seat.

Re: Consumers are "Mugs" allways have been
Once they realised that they had such a big market AND they could flog coprocessor upgrades to the people who brought them they begun to take DX chips and disable the FPU in order to sell them as "lower" speck cheaper units
Do you actually remember how crazy expensive the DX was? The SX was at least affordable.
When you first start making a particular chip, you bin them according to their quality. This is why faster chips (higher bin) cost more than slower chips (lower bin). Say in the first month, only 12.5% of chips test as valid at the quality mark. Do you absorb the cost of the other 87.5% of failures, or sell at a slightly lower spec?
Over time, as processes get better, the proportion of chips ending in each bin shifts towards the higher bins. If everything in a batch actually ends up getting binned towards the higher end of the spectrum, then potentially each could be sold as a high end chip, but the demand is mainly for low end chips.
So you have a choice then. You can leave most of your stock on the shelves as too expensive, you can cut the price of your high end stock, or you can ship high end stock as low end stock.
If Intel didn't do things like this, processors would cost significantly more than they already do. So take the already crazy price of a DX, triple it, and take away any option of buying an SX instead.

In the summer in the UK, twilight starts at around 4am, daylight around 5 am. Normally, people are sleeping at that point.

Re: Leap Seconds
Leap seconds are one of the main reasons why we have DST? Run that one by me again Dave, since DST is solely about getting more daylight hours during the summer and harvest, prompted by a desire to reduce fuel costs on the country during war.

18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
The main protagonist's iconic costume is Red and Blue, or Red Blue and Yellow.
A Costume Trope. We know that Red Is Heroic. But even in cases where the hero's definitive color isn't Red, they may still sport a costume that is primarily Red, Blue and Yellow. One typical set up is that costume will be Blue, an iconic or prominent piece of it (such as a hat or a cape) will be Red, and Yellow will be used for accents and other accessories. Another common way to do this is to have a balance of Red and Blue elements without yellow. In this design its much more likely for blue to be the bottoms (pants and skirts) and red to be the tops (shirts and jackets) There are of course many different ways to design a costume, but if you see a character wearing both Red and Blue prominently chances are they're The Hero or at least playing for the Good Guys side. It a good visual shorthand to the audience that this is a person you can trust. This trope may have stemmed from the early days of comicbooks in which heroic characters typically had color schemes that sported Primary Colors (Red Blue and Yellow) while villains typically had secondary colors (Purple, Green, Orange.) What better way to drive home that point than to have heroes where all three (like Superman), and sometimes having villains wear two or three of the secondary (like the Joker, Green Goblin and some Lex Luthor designs) Sub-Trope to Good Colors, Evil Colors.
