Acrylics refers to any of a group of clear, synthetic resins used to make plastics, paints, etc. Nail enhancements (or artificial nails) made by combining a liquid acrylic product (monomer) with a powdered acrylic product (polymer); the two products form a soft ball that can be molded into a nail shape that adheres well to the natural nail or a tip; once applied, the acrylic hardens into a strong artificial nail that can be filed and buffed to a high shine.

My View on Cordoba from Hesperia
Advantages: The Location
Disadvantages: The midgies
...This wasn't our first visit to Cordoba. We'd been there a few years ago and had stayed right in the heart of the old town across the street from the Mezquita, which was nice.
So, this time we decided to stay at a different hotel.
Parking is practically non-existent in the old town, so if you're arriving by car (which we were), and you don't intend to drive around the mainly pedestrianized area...

.... For a long weekend in this amazing city i can recommend no other hotel as highly as Hotel Plateros.

I am having a hard time understanding a lot of the language and how to crunch the numbers properly for my tank.
The first issue is am I at the cap of 102.4% I believe I am, but if not what is most effiecient way to accomplish that.
I am also aware that I am under capped on Expertise and Hit Cap, which I unfortunately just became aware of(/delete toon). I did not notice it before since I have never had a problem holding aggro until 3.3 when I have encountered some really fantastic dps. Also I noticing that my health is really spiky which is why I am asking about the 102.4%.
I have read quite a bit, but alot of it is people who obviously know what they are talking about, but have put it in a language that I do not understand :confused:. So from reading what I typed I have said the same thing numerous times. I just would like to make the healers and dps's job easier in the end and improve my tanking even more.

A 33-year-old man is dead after he was gunned down overnight at a West Wichita motel. Police say it was not a random act.
Wichita Police Lt. Sam Hanley said guests and workers heard some gunshots at the Stratford House Inn at about 11:30 p.m. in the 5500 Blk. of W. Kellogg.
When police arrived, they found the victim, Edward "Brian" Leeper, unconscious in the parking lot with a gunshot wound to his chest. He died about 30 minutes later on the way to a Wichita hospital. Leeper was reportedly from the Wichita area.
Police said he was shot as he walked across the parking lot.
Hanley said investigators discovered a bullet hole in the room next to the victim's, but could not find any sign of a struggle inside the victim's own room. Evidence was also found in the parking lot of Sam's Place, a bar next to the motel.
Police are searching for a suspect driving a white vehicle with a loud muffler. No further description is yet available.

CF's labor policy work centers on protecting workers' rights by ending the special privileges and coercive power government grants to unions. Union membership should be voluntary; unions should collect their own dues; no one should be forced to support a union's political agenda; and workers should not be coerced to give part of their pay to a union or lose their job. Moreover, taxpayers should not be forced to support unions, either directly or through special carve-outs for government contractors which benefit certain unions.
Government Unions' Political Spending
Currently, state and local governments, including school districts, use taxpayer-funded payroll systems and public employee time to collect union campaign contributions to candidates as well as union membership dues, a portion of which is used for political activity. Government unions spend dues money on a variety of political activities, including get-out-the vote drives, election mailers in support of candidates, lobbying of legislators, TV and radio ads, and fundraising for political action committees (PACs).

Ford Motor Co. says shareholders have approved its request to issue more common shares to help pay some of its health care obligations to retired autoworkers.
At the automaker's annual meeting in Delaware, more than 95% of shareholders voted to authorize a stock offering that Ford could use to meet up to 50% of its obligations to its Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association. That is the health care trust for retired autoworkers and their families.
On Monday, Ford disclosed a public offering of 300 million shares of common stock that will help it fund the VEBA, which is owed $6.3 billion by the end of this year.
The offer is a first for the 105-year-old company, which went public in 1956.

I've had 1800cal. today (I've been averaging 1700cals a day)and I've still got 5 hours to bed! I start at 4:00am. and try to eat 200cal (2oz. cream cheese)every 2 to 3 hours but today I was ravenous. I'm doing EFGT in place of HCG because I lost faith in HCG but on HCG I was never hungry between meals. Maybe I'll try EFGT with HCG and lower cals.

I've just been diagnosed with sleep apnea following a sleep study in May. My doctor said that in the 2.8hours that I was asleep, I stopped breathing 22 times. I stopped breathing from 10 - 24 seconds each time and my oxygen saturation dropped as low as 70. She didn't say if that was mild, moderate, or severe apnea. She is my primary care physician, and I have not actually seen a sleep specialist, although one reviewed the results to my sleep study and sent a report to her. Do you think a sleep specialist should actually talk to me and look in my nose and throat, just in case there is an issue there? I'm actually rather surprised that I haven't been referred to a sleep doctor as I have fairly good insurance.
For me, my sleep apnea reared it's head a few years ago when I was pregnant, and has not gone away. I gained weight with two pregnancies and am wondering if just losing weight will help alleviate the problem, since I did not have issues with apnea prior to being pregnant and gaining weight. Has anyone out there had success with just losing weight?
To be honest, the CPAP thing makes me feel very unsettled. During my sleep study, they had me try CPAP for the rest of the night following the first three hours of study. At first, I felt very panicked with the mask on and called the technician in to adjust it. She did, and then I was able to fall asleep and had no more instances of apnea. Even still, just thinking about the mask makes me feel panicky. Also I wonder how much dependency you build with the CPAP. Will your throat muscles become weak by using the CPAP such that you are totally dependant on the machine? I guess the idea of being dependant on a machine to breath at night just really has me all freaked out. Sigh...

Shower Faucets
When was the last time you were an overnight guest and had to use bath facilities that weren't your very own? Isn't it funny how once we're not in our familiar environments - a little grime and gook on someone else's faucet can take on gargantuan meaning to our bodily health and safety? Never mind that your own bathroom may harbor a few more gritty little beasts than you'd prefer to admit. No, we always notice the germs in other people's bathrooms first. Visiting friends can actually remind us to immediately go home and inspect our very own facilities. Maybe it is time for that new faucet after all. We wouldn't want to 'wig out' our friends in retaliation, now would we?

Unable to clear your credit card bill? Try balance transfer
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Have you exceeded your budget while swiping your credit card recently? If yes, a balance transfer could be a convenient way to delay your card payment with minimal interest, giving you time to arrange funds.
Making a partial payment or not paying your credit card bills can attract a high interest rate, more than 30 percent per annum in some cases, and can push you into a debt trap.
Using the balance transfer option provided by many credit card issuers in India, the interest outgo could be reduced to as low as zero percent for a few months, giving you enough time to arrange funds. Most banks would charge a nominal processing fee for this option.
But experts say that the availability of this service should not be the only criterion for making purchases and people should try and stay within their budget.
"While it is an excellent way to save interest, and one can certainly make the most of this facility to gain some time to get one's personal finances in order, it is inadvisable to use this facility only as a means to delay payments," says Dia Kirpalani, Senior Manager of Financial Planning at PersonalFN.
Having more than one credit card is a basic requirement for using this service, though one still needs to carefully check and calculate the processing fee and various interest rate options available on a particular credit card.
Let us assume you make a purchase of 50,000 rupees via Bank A's credit card and are short of funds when you receive your card statement.
You call the customer care helpline of Bank B, where you are holding another credit card, and ask for a balance transfer option.
Bank B offers you a zero percent interest rate for 90 days and says it will charge a 2 percent processing fee. You opt for this and Bank B charges 1,000 rupees as fee (2 percent of 50,000 rupees) and sends you a cheque in favour of Bank A.
You deposit this cheque in Bank A and clear the outstanding amount there. Your balance is now transferred to Bank B and you now have 90 days to clear this debt. However, you will have to pay at least the minimum amount due (usually 5 percent) every month.
Your bank may offer various balance transfer options and you can opt for the one that suits you. Keep an eye on payment dates and ensure the outstanding debt is cleared within the offer period, otherwise you will have to pay a higher interest rate.
"Remember that the teaser rate on the new bank's card is temporary," said Kirpalani. "If the consumer can pay off the outstanding amount during the teaser rate period, the interest savings will be significant."

Kansas Education Commissioner Alexa Posny today announced that she will send five nominations to U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings for the 2008-2009 No Child Left Behind—Blue Ribbon Schools Awards Program. These schools will be invited to apply for this prestigious award. The final selection of the 2009 NCLB-Blue Ribbon Schools will be made in September 2009.
The Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors elementary and secondary schools that make significant progress in closing the achievement gap, recognizing those schools that have a least 40 percent of their students from disadvantaged backgrounds and have dramatically improved student performance to high levels in reading and mathematics. The program also recognizes schools whose students achieve in the top 10 percent in the state on reading and mathematics assessments regardless of demographics.
"I am proud of the progress being made in Kansas schools. I believe the five schools nominated are stunning examples of the achievement that is possible when committed and caring educators focus their energies on ensuring all students meet or exceed high academic standards," said Dr. Posny.
A committee consisting of school administrators, staff members from previously honored NCLB-Blue Ribbon schools, representatives from the National Education Association-Kansas, the Kansas Association of School Boards, and the Kansas Association of Secondary School Principals reviewed the data on schools deemed to be dramatically improving and those achieving at high levels. The result of the process was the selection of five schools in two categories.

In the same room where he was jeered and heckled by Florida State students as a candidate for university president, John Thrasher drew widespread praise Friday for being a reassuring presence in the aftermath of Thursday's shooting at the campus library.
Only 10 days on the job, Thrasher attended his first meeting of FSU's board of trustees Friday, a day after troubled gunman Myron May shot and wounded three students, one critically, before being shot and killed by university police. Thrasher has met numerous times with FSU students, attended a candlelight vigil and personally reopened Robert Manning Strozier Library Friday morning as 100 students waited to get inside to study for pre-holiday exams....

Mark DeFriest, 54, who grew up in rural Gadsden County, has been in prison since 1979 for stealing his father's tools. He became a serial escape artist, gained the nickname "Houdini of Florida" and is the subject of a film, The Life and Mind of Mark DeFriest.

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Rick Scott's second inaugural celebration will be much more low-key than his first one and a lot less expensive, too.
The black-tie ball is gone, replaced by no-frills barbecues around the state. The inaugural parade is history, replaced by a tribute to military veterans.

Graham ran an impressive ground game and campaigned as a centrist problem-solver candidate to appeal to independents, Republicans and conservative Democrats. But the results show that from Perry to Chipley, people voted for Graham who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Crist. Across the district, Graham got about 7,000 more votes than Crist....

Lords: Analogue radio must die
Digital radio isn't great and the public doesn't want it, but you're going to get it anyway. So recommends the House of Lords Communications Committee today. 90 per cent of the UK listens to radio, and 94 per cent of listeners are happy with what they've got. The Lords accept most of the points made by critics of DAB and the …
I feel special
I'm in a small 10% minority of people who don't listen to the radio at all, did they pluck that stat out their arses? ... After all, I purchased an mp3 player because it has no adverts or crap talking DJs, surely more than just 10% have done the same thing?
It's mislabeled.
It should actually read "90% of UK people gets regularly subjected to radio".
If it wasn't for cab driver's radios (instead of decent records --- even if it's not my taste, please play something personal instead of charts drivel interspersed with jingles), mates' failure to play mp3s on car stereo, and clothes stores trying to annoy me, I'd also be in the radio free fraction.
Yeah, very questionable stats
If I got together 9 of my friends I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one in the room who doesn't listen to the radio.
Unless you've got a car
In which case the chances are fairly high that you've got an analog radio, even if you don't use it much.
I've just cancelled the order for an all-singing new DAB radio
If 6music is going, there's not much to listen to.
What kind of push is the BBC going to give it in the future if it's pulling out half it's digital-only services now?
Re: I've just cancelled...
"What kind of push is the BBC going to give it in the future"
The Beeb will be replaced with 100s upon 100s of generic commercial stations with adverts every 10 minutes and a looping playlist of only 6 songs. At least with DAB you will have a little text display showing you which of those 6 tracks you just heard in super-tinny quality for the 99th time today assuming your receiver's tenuous hold on the signal isn't disrupted by being inside a building or standing next to someone whose sandwiches are wrapped in tinfoil.
Maybe they'll add
Radio 1 + 1
Like those + 1 TV stations that repeat what was on in the previous hour, only with the radio, both stations would be broadcasting an identical feed almost all of the time. Well certainly in Radio 1s case anyway.
What does anyone get out of this except the manufacturers of over priced sets - a bit of wavelength for teh government to sell whilst us poor saps have to fork out millions between us. Perhaps Lords don't listen to the radio in the car, too busy uncorking the champers
What do they get out of this?
Why another big swathe of bandwidth to auction for ridiculous amounts of cash.
The FM, AM and LW spectrums are gigantic compared to the pathetic little slots the mobi companies have been bidding on, and have a much greater range.
You could fund an entire idiotic ID card project from that lot, with Biometrics, Retina scanners, blood samplers, Serior directorship and everything. (or a couple of hundred hospitals if you give a damn about that sort of thing)
Raed the report
> The FM, AM and LW spectrums are gigantic compared to the pathetic little slots the mobi companies have been bidding on
Not so. GSM 900 has 25MHz, DCS 1800 has 60MHz. Band II FM has only 20 MHZ, and medium/long wave combined less than 2MHz.
> and have a much greater range.
Which is a severe inconvenience for a cell-based network, since each cell can only support a certain number of users. The bigger each cell is, the fewer users the system as a whole can handle.
If you actually read the HoL report you'd see that even they accept that the freed-up spectrum is of no significant commercial value.
Sounds about right
Govornment says "We think it's good (we can probably tax it some more), so you're going to get it whether you like it or not, and you are going to have to pay for it"
Sounds like the death bell for a LOT of smaller (and often more interesting) radio stations.
Looks like Caroline may be making a comeback......
It has
Listening to Radio Caroline right now !
Blank cheque?
I suspect that was provided by the DAB lobby?
Environmental issues
Has anyone calculated the increased power consumption that will be required to run all these DAB radios? Must be some % of a new power station.
Quite the opposite actually
FM transmitters consume megawatts of power. DAB uses far less, kW not MW. OK they could do with cranking it up a bit even so; also the transmit amplifier efficiency is not so good due to the high peak-to-mean ratio of an OFDM signal.
DAB, being a digital system, is able to work with only 7.5dB of signal-to -noise (theoretically - actual designs need one or two more dB). By "work" i mean achieve a bit error rate of less than 10^-4, which does give you the bubbling mud phenomenon, but again a couple more dB will make this go away, and with DAB+ it will go altogether - an additional Reed-Solomon encode will correct these low-rate errors completely.
that said, i don't want to see FM sacrificed on the altar of "better use of the radio spectrum" - or "better financial return from something we think we own"
- we, the british public should own the FM band by virtue of the money we have spent over the years and still today on FM radios.
Its a working worldwide standard, leave it the fuck alone...
re: Environmental issues
A little while ago – I can't remember, but I guessing 3-4 years ago – someone posed this type of question in Radio 4's feedback. The answer was phased as an example of if you have a wind-up radio, 30 seconds of winding it up would give you about 30 minutes of analogue listening; if you were listening to DAB you'd get about 10 seconds.
On the other hand, I believe most DAB radios aren't so power hungry these days and some are touted as being very energy efficient.
Umm, no?
FM transmitters transmit Megawatts of effective radiated power, they don't USE Megawatts of power. The actual power of a transmitter is far less than the transmit power due to aerial efficiencies. Either way, neither ERP or transmitter power equate to power consumption.
There are no UK FM radio stations using "Megawatts 'of power. I think the maximum in the UK for analogue FM transmission is 250KW. Typically a mid sized commercial station might be using 4 or 5 KW with many small stations scraping by on 100-500 watts.
Now AM transmissions are different. They are very power hungry and inefficient. Radio 4 and Talksport have 500 KW transmitters which on AM will certainly mean having to put more than a megawatt into the TX array to get 500KW out. AM transmission is beastly, I once worked for a small scale AM station licensed for 10 watts or something daft. We used to have to stick 50 watts into the aerial to get the correct output out.
Yes DAB uses less but lets not exaggerate the problem when the majority of non national stations are scraping by on less leccy than is used by an average fan heater.
"Digital radio isn't great and the public doesn't want it, but you're going to get it anyway".
Replace subject with anything you can think of.
It's Britain today.
What a shambles
The public aren't confused. They either don't know what's proposed, or they do and they don't like it.
When the public find out that they are going to have to throw away all their perfectly good radio's there will be a massive backlash. With TV switch over no TV's needed to be thrown away. With the car scrappage scheme they were trading in worn out cars. With this we will have to scrap all our radios, and most of them will have many years life left in them.
I will be pretty upset if I have to throw away my 8 perfectly good FM radios in the name of digital progress. Most households, like me, have a lot of FM radios in their house and cars, and they will all be scrap.
Many Tvs will be scrap
Nobody has thought about the millions of portable TVs. Do you think those will work on Freeview with a 6 inch ariel? As for mobile phone with built-in DAB, will those work using the headphone lead as an ariel? If the authorities get their way and force everyone onto digital TV/radio, then portable listening will be a thing of the past (apart from MP3).
And another thing...
Is DAB coverage going to be improved significantly over the next five years?
Many people find they have a shite DAB signal in their home so don't bother with DAB.
Most people who've bothered to install DAB in their cars stick with FM because it's impossible to travel very far without losing signal quality.
We have one DAB set in our house. The DAB signal is just as good as FM, but the set remains on FM. Why? Because the stations we want aren't available on DAB. It's not like the stations concerned are obscure ones, one of them is the local BBC station and we only live a couple of miles from a humungous transmitter.
I suspect that many people will find themselves in at least one of the above boats and there really is no point spending money on DAB receivers until those problems are sorted. Amusingly I have been told that all those problems will be sorted out after analogue is switched off, because there will be lots of spare bandwidth around then. Do the pro DAB lobby not see the problem there? They want us to spend money buying DAB receivers in order that they can switch off analogue in order to free up bandwidth to make DAB work properly.
The problem with car radios is that you people are not going to pay a premium for DAB when they have to stick with FM for the next five years. Other than rolling out DAB properly the best solution would be to ensure that all cars sold are DAB equipped and all new head units are DAB equipped and for the government to pay the difference. My car came with an FM head unit included in the price or DAB/FM as a £130 option. If the government had paid that £130 I'd have happilly gone for the DAB option. Those converters are truly appalling, the quality is crap and they're a pain to use - nobody should have to use one.
Likewise every other tuner around. The DAB unit that sits in our kitchen cost £30 or we could have had an FM equivalent for around a tenner. Were that £20 premium funded by UK.gov people would go for it.
Shakespeare reference?
It's "aerial" FFS, not "ariel". I know we're not supposed to discriminate against illiteracy but that one really gets to me.
Give all the FM stations channels on DAB.
Give all the FM stations channels on DAB. Also the scrappage scheme can include a subsidy so that luddites (read Reg readers) can swap their crap FM radio for a nice little DAB set. And force mobile phone makers to put DAB into their handsets, instead of those crap FM chips.
There you go, sorted.
Poorer sound quality
From wikipedia:
"An "informal listening test" by Professor Sverre Holm has shown that for stationary listening the audio quality on DAB is lower than FM stereo, due to most stations using a bit rate of 128 kbit/s or less, with the MP2 audio codec, which requires 160 kbit/s to achieve perceived FM quality."
So all of us Luddites should "upgrade" to get a poorer sound quality
I do agree with you... I won't mind switch if I receive a blank check to replace my HF with DAB and also to replace by car radio with car DAB. And since is blank check perhaps I should consider buy an house to fit all my DAB stuf just in case needed.
I had a digital radio but when I moved house the reception was so apalling in our new place we had to go out and by an analogue radio. The DAB is sitting gathering dust somewhere, which is where this proposal from the Lords (talking of things gathering dust!) should be.
All the best luddites read The Reg.
Have you tried DAB in a car?
Fucking awful doesn't even begin to describe it.
Oh, and forget the idea of DAB in your smartphone. If you think battery life is crap now, it won't last an hour with a DAB receiver on. All the "crap FM radio" has to do is demodulate the FM signal and amplify it a bit, all very low power stuff. A DAB radio has to throw some considerable processing horsepower at the task of decoding and decompressing the DAB datastream. That costs power. Quite a lot of power.
And then there's the fact that DAB is old technology (MP2) already superseded by DAB+ (AAC+ and Reed Solomon error correction), which does offer quality and robustness broadly similar to FM.
We are merely being sold a pup so the Government can make a quick profit selling off the bandwidth.
As long you get DAB reception...
...which we don't. Nothing at - not even a 'glop'.
Thats a...
fabulous idea...
So thats 7 FM radios I use around my house, plus the one on my mobile, and the one on my MP3 player (both of which admittedly may be dead by the time this comes about) and the one in my car, which is integrated so cannot easily be swapped.
The radio in my bathroom runs for about 6 months on 4 AA batteries (approx 1/2 play a day). I'll give you a toffee for every DAB radio you can find that will match that. I'll give you two toffees if any of them come in at the under £10 that that particular radio came in at.
Its going to have to be a BLOODY good subsidy for it not to cost me hundreds to replace that lot...
Which of them?
Ok, I'm not in britain, otherwise I'd have to ask: which of my half dozen or so FM radios will be subsidized in case of a replacement: the one in the stereo system in the living room, the one in the kitchen, the one in the compact system in the bedroom, the one in the mobile phone, the one lying in the bedside table, the one in the home office or the one in the garden shed? Just be glad I don't have a car.
Fun aside: DAB is dead. This DAB is deceased. This is an ex-DAB.
- For fixed (read home) entertainment, DAB has been overtaken by internet radio and/or youtube in combination with local WLAN (which is why I for one won't get a DAB replacement for any of the above FM receivers but rather a few comparatively cheap BT A2DP receivers that'll couple to my mobile phone, which in turn will connect via my local WLAN to my server or the internet).
- For mobile pedestrian/bicycling entertainment, the ubiquitous MP3/... players offer better reception/audio quality than the simple receivers/antennas of portable radios can ever hope to achieve (yep, even for DAB).
- For in-car entertainment, you have the choice of MP3, CD, DVD, reasonable FM radio (with a good diversity receiver, the only difference to DAB will be the (un)availability of local stations) or internet radio via UMTS (ok, the last one is still in the development stage, but if Google Earth is working reasonably well, the rest is just a matter of time).
Crap FM?
Have you heard the sound quality on the majority of DAB stations?
128kbps (if you're lucky) MP2 does NOT make for hifi sound....
I feel moved to express my views on your post through the medium of song
(Moderato; with apologies to Flanders and Swann)
Mud, mud, bubbling mud
Nothing quite like it for boiling the blood
So follow me, follow
Down to the hollow
And there let us wallow
In bubbling mud!
I thank you.
Er, yes I have
and it's excellent - I can drive from my home on the Welsh border (which is not officially in the coverage area) to any point east without any break in programme on the two national DAB multiplexes. If you have a proper antenna, properly fitted, then reception is solid, and the MP2 sound quality is not an issue for in-car use. You are aware that for digital TV, Sky, VM and Freeview also use the MP2 codec for the majority of their services? It's not the codec that's the problem, it's the low bit rate chosen to squeeze large numbers of channels into the multiplexes.
And I also have a phone (HTC Lobster) with a built in DAB receiver, which works for the whole day tuned in to Test Match Special. So no problem there either.
Agreed that this is a stop gap, and agreed that DAB+ would be a better option. But the UK was first to air with DAB and many people have shelled out for DAB sets, so maybe we need the govt to buy all our FM and DAB radios from us so we can go and buy nice new DAB+ ones. So much for the environment.
Did you bother to read the report?
Far from saying "Analogue radio must die" it actually says
"for the foreseeable future, the Government will consider FM radio to be part of the broadcasting firmament"
and discusses the future of local BBC and commercial FM stations and even AM stations.
Perhaps you should just have posted a link to the report rather than writing an article that makes it sound like they're proposing to hang Wogan from Tower Bridge by his entrails and ship the cast of The Archers to Guantanamo bay.
Re: Did you bother to read The Register?
:: Perhaps you should just have posted a link to the report
I did. Give the specs a rub with a clean cloth.
Not all bad...
Shipping the cast of the Archers to Guantanamo sounds like a step forward to me.
Tech might be good, but available radios are crap
why are all DAB radios shaped like ugly bricks? I hunted high and low some years ago for a small battery powered device I could stick in my pocket and use to listen to 5live on the way to/from work, but nothing doing. In the end I got a regular AM/FM device.
My 'brick shaped' alarm clock next to my bed does have DAB - and happily autoscans for new stations - but never seems to forget discontinued services. Endless 'service not detected' when changing channels.There's no 'reset' option in any of the menus and even turning it off for a weekend did nothing.
Even more ridiculous is that the manual talks of 'no more hassle resetting the clock due to BST switches - we take the time from the DAB signal'. Great, but it doesn't do this automatically, you have to press more buttons to get it to rescan the time than you would need to nudge the hour backwards/forward manually.
I feel a warm glow when I read how in-touch the Lords and Commons actually are with the hoi-polloi.
Maybe it's just me pissing myself laughing (when I'm not crying)
If I wanted to listen to a river gurgling
I'll go to the river. I've tried a variety of DAB units and none of them work round here. If there's a give away of DAB radios its going to cost me a fortune in wobbly tables to make use of them.
fm is not crap
I get great reception on my FM radio why would I want a digital radio. If it's anything like freeview reception it will be a piece of crap, my ITV C4 channels are always breaking up cos they send it all on the same channel on freeview, why would I trust them with my radio.
Not to mention the environmental cost of scrapping perfectly good radio's for new digital ones.
High fashon
Beeb and the Lords should talk to Apples man as they seem to understand that what can not be dictated can be sometimes be made fashionable.
Her majesty could be asked to be seen with a lovely DAB set, perhaps get her one for her birthday?
I love my DAB
Let's see, I've got a Pure, I've got a Roberts and I've got a Cowon D2+DAB. They are all dual devices, recieving FM/AM broadcasts too.
When I went to visit my mother at Xmas, she was having problems with her old analog radio, so I popped down to Currys Digital and picked her up a cheap and cheerful own brand DAB, and showed her how the menu worked, and she, at 78, set up all her own channels, and loves it too.
Okay, it's not all going to be rosy, there are going to be problems, but if we don't sit down and work out the solutions, we may as well just get the valves out again.
Analog broadcast media belong in the past. DAB may not be the solution, and may well be superceded, but let's see, I've had a ZX80, Spectrum, C64, Atari ST, Mac (Classic), Dos PCs, Windows 9x pcs, XP PCs, Mac OS X boxes. I now have a Mac running Snow Leopard and a PC running Win 7. I had a CRT SD Telly, bought a CRT widescreen telly, bought an HD capable telly, then an HD ready telly, and then an HD capable receiver to go with my HD ready Telly.
Technology brings change. You lot can put on your slippers, and sit in front of the fire, listening to the Light Program on the Wireless.
I've got better things to do. And listen to.
Good for You
But what new shiny thing will you buy when DAB ain't sexy no more?
Technology brings change? Ha!
Those of us who read the Reg know very well that change != improvement.
Weak signal performance: AM noisy, FM noisy, DAB shite.
Audio quality: AM comms quality, FM hi-fi quality, DAB shite.
Battery life if you want it portable: AM outstanding, FM very good, DAB non-existent.
Now back to listening to my FM radio, at hi-fi quality, while I still can.
Alright for you
Do you live in a major urban area by any chance? My FM reception is crap enough- DAB is only worse. It may be fine if you live in Twickenham, but contrary to popular opinion not everyone lives in a major conurbation in the South-East. Even then, if you live in an old terraced house with thick walls, the best you'll get in your kitchen is something that sounds like 16kbit/s Real Player.
And as for your "technology brings change" argument- it sounds a bit like you want technology for it's own sake- I'm all for new technology if it's better, but in this case it simply isn't.
Radio Scrapage?
If the Gobment is going to do this it will cost them a very large sum of money.I for one have about £800 worth of radios in one form or another AND I will want a like for like trade IE the CD player is one that I can load with 25 CDs so ther is one that they will find expensive.
If the powers that be want us to listen to DAB then put programes on it that people want to listen to .
The reason is RFID
Katherine Albrecht (author of Spychips) has identified the reason. Analog frequencies are to be used in RFID chips, which corporations (such as Walmart, Asda, Gillettes, etc.) are embedding into their wares. They are selling these frequencies to the corporations.
There is to be an "Internet of things", where absolutely everything, including sewing needles, will be chipped so that they can be trackable by anyone interested in finding out more about you.
Lovely, eh?
They have "digital" on radios now?
So impractical
I would just give up radio.
Unless someone produces a Minidisc head unit with Sony CD changer control.
And gives it to me for free.

page 3 - 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Detonating GM's plastic explosive - 0-60 in just 3.3 seconds; handling to match.
By November 14, 2008 / Photos by John Lamm
Chevy didn't skimp to keep the price near 100 grand, as every ZR1 comes with carbon-ceramic brakes most manufacturers make them an extremely pricey (usually around $15,000) option. The ZR1's come from Brembo, with 6-piston calipers up front clamping down on monstrous 15.5-in. rotors. The 15.0-in. rears have 4-piston calipers. The big benefits to carbon-ceramic rotors are low weight and resistance to fade, but Chevy also says they "should never show any corrosion or require replacement for the life of the vehicle, when used in normal driving." These brakes, along with the aforementioned sticky Michelin tires, stop the ZR1 like no Vette before, halting from 60 mph in 106 ft. and from 80 mph in an all-time R&T record of 183 ft.
Aside from the carbon-fiber hood's slightly cheesy-looking clear polycarbonate cover over the charge cooler, this is one mean-looking machine. The fixed roof, front splitter and side skirts, all made of carbon fiber, add to the car's exotic nature without mucking up its beautiful lines, while the blue brake calipers and ZR1 logos distinguish it from Z06s.
So where doesn't the ZR1 stack up against The World's Best? The interior, as usual. If you've been fortunate enough to sit in a Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche 911 GT2, you understand the quality of the materials used everything feels expensive. And the style with which the Italians, in particular, display those materials is beyond the abilities of most. As such, the ZR1 uses a run-of-the-mill GM center stack and standard Z06 instruments, albeit with a supercharger boost gauge. Our test car had the $10,000 uplevel interior package, which includes Bose premium audio, a navigation system, power/heated seats (with stitched ZR1 logos), side airbags and an upgraded two-tone leather interior. While it's the nicest cabin we've seen in a Corvette, it's still not quite up to the level of its competitors (the Dodge Viper notwithstanding), and possibly less than what's expected in a car with an as-tested price of $117,000. And don't get us started on the ZR1's seats. Long a Corvette sore point, the leather buckets have basically zero seat cushion lateral support, and only a marginal amount from the seatbacks. On the plus side, they're surprisingly comfortable for long days in the saddle.
But because the ZR1's overall performance is so astronomically high, you won't give its few shortcomings even a second thought. The ZR1 takes it right to the world's best supercars, and at a near bargain price. It's a shame Chevy is limiting it to just 2000 per year, because pound-for-pound, horsepower-for-horsepower, and dollar-for-dollar, the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 stands as one of the greatest sports cars ever built.

Clemens gave up Cameron Maybin's first major league homer but pitched out of trouble for six innings, striking out eight to match his season high. Jorge Posada also homered and finished with three hits for the Yankees, who took control by scoring four times in the sixth.
Mariano Rivera tossed a hitless ninth for his 20th save in 23 chances.
Clemens (5-5) gave up 10 hits, his most since allowing 11 on Sept. 19, 2005, with Houston at Pittsburgh, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. He was working on 10 days' rest after serving a five-game suspension for hitting Toronto's Alex Rios with a pitch on Aug. 7.
Posada hit a solo shot off Chad Durbin (7-6) in the second, putting New York ahead.
Orioles 5, Blue Jays 3
TORONTO (AP) - J.R. House homered to help Baltimore's Steve Trachsel win for the first time in 10 starts.
Trachsel (6-7) allowed three runs and eight hits in 6 2-3 innings and won for the first time since June 8.
Right-hander Jim Hoey relieved Trachsel after a pair of two-out singles in the seventh and got Toronto pinch-hitter Vernon Wells to ground into an inning-ending fielder's choice.
Hoey pitched around a double in the eighth, and Danys Baez pitched a perfect ninth for his second save.
For the second straight start, Toronto right-hander Jesse Litsch was the victim of poor defense. The Blue Jays made two errors, leading to three unearned runs. Toronto made three errors and allowed three unearned runs in Litsch's loss to Kansas City on Monday.
On Saturday, Litsch (4-6) allowed two earned runs on six hits in six innings. He walked one and struck out four.
Indians 8, Devil Rays 1
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - Jake Westbrook gave up one run over seven innings, Asdrubal Cabrera hit his first major league homer and Cleveland beat Tampa Bay.
Grady Sizemore also went deep for the AL Central-leading Indians, who extended their advantage over Detroit to 1 1/2 games. Cleveland has won three in a row following a four-game losing streak.
Westbrook (4-7) allowed two hits, including an RBI double by Carlos Pena with two outs in the seventh. The right-hander has won three of four starts.
Cabrera's three-run drive off Jason Hammel (1-3) put the Indians ahead 3-0 in the second. Hammel gave up four runs and eight hits in five innings. He is winless in 15 major league starts, including six this season.
The Devil Rays have the majors' worst record at 46-76 and have lost 36 of 49 since June 25.
Sizemore made it 4-0 in the fifth with his 21st homer of the season. He has a hit in 22 of 24 games.
Rangers 5, Twins 0
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Marlon Byrd homered and drove in four runs, sending Kameron Loe and Texas past Minnesota.
Loe (6-9) came off the disabled list and threw five shutout innings, overcoming five walks by ending four of those innings with two runners on base. The Twins stranded a man on third three times, and Boof Bonser (5-10) lost his eighth straight decision.
Bonser surrendered seven hits, all five runs and three walks. Bonser, 0-8 in his last 12 starts, served up a homer to Jarrod Saltalamacchia to start the fifth.
Loe allowed only three hits and struck out two while throwing 80 pitches. The 6-foot-7 right-hander hadn't appeared since July 29 because of back spasms.
The Twins hit into three double plays and left 10 runners on base.
Red Sox 10, Angels 5
BOSTON (AP) - David Ortiz's grand slam capped a six-run fifth inning, Curt Schilling got his first win since a one-hitter two months ago, and Boston beat Los Angeles in a matchup of teams with the best records in the majors.
The rally against Angels starter Jered Weaver (8-6) erased Los Angeles' 5-0 lead and kept Boston's AL East lead at five games over New York.
Boston's Manny Ramirez struck out in his first four at bats, then lined a two-run double in a four-run ninth.
Schilling (7-5) was 0-3 in four starts since just missing a no-hitter on June 7 at Oakland. He was on the disabled list from June 19 to Aug. 6 with tendinitis in his right shoulder and went 0-1 in his other two starts since returning.
On Saturday, he gave up homers Chone Figgins and Vladimir Guerrero but was bailed out by the six-run rally. He pitched a perfect sixth before being replaced by Mike Timlin.
Weaver, who had allowed two hits in the first four innings, gave up six runs and six hits in the fifth when he failed to retire the first six batters.
Royals 7, Athletics 3
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Jason Smith hit a pair of two-run homers, Ross Gload also connected and Kansas City captured the season series with Oakland for the first time in nine years.
Odalis Perez (8-11) recorded his first career decision against Oakland, winning back-to-back starts for the first time since April 20 and 25. Kansas City owns its first three-game winning streak since getting four straight victories from July 26-29.
Perez pitched five shutout innings and has a combined 15 scoreless innings against the A's in three appearances.
The Royals last won the season series when they took seven of 11 games in 1998. They won three of four from the A's in the Coliseum from May 14-17.
Perez allowed three hits, struck' out two and walked four.
Chad Gaudin (9-9) lost for the sixth time in his last seven decisions.
Mariners 7, White Sox 5
SEATTLE (AP) - Kenji Johjima hit a tiebreaking RBI single in Seattle's four-run sixth and the Mariners rallied to hand Chicago its season-high, seventh straight loss.
Jeff Weaver (5-10) allowed four runs and five hits in 7 2-3 innings for the Mariners, who moved within two of the AL West-leading Angels. Seattle has a half-game lead over New York in the wild-card race.
Chicago led 3-0 early but committed two errors and Ehren Wassermann threw a wild pitch in the sixth. Jim Thome homered twice and A.J. Pierzynski also connected for the White Sox. It was Thome's 39th career multihomer game and second this season.
J.J. Putz worked the ninth for his 36th save, matching a career high.
John Danks (6-11) gave up four runs and nine hits in five-plus innings for the White Sox.
