I'm so excited!

I went on the internet and bought a small resin statue of the Blessed Virgin, 8" high that will 'watch' over my herb garden. She is dressed in a flowing blue robe and it is just beautiful. I can't wait to make her shrine there. I feel it will be a great way to bring up Mary to my ds, 2.5. He is a garden enthuasiast and I'm sure will ask questions.
I am also excited because I also bought a beautiful 'chaplet'. It is similar to a rosary but is shorter to say, it has twelve beads on it. I bought an 'Immaculate Conception' one, it has sapphire blue glass beads and a sterling silver Miraculas Medal attached to it. It is just beautiful. I'm hoping that this will induce me to start praying more to Our Lady. I've never had luck saying the rosary, it seems my mind wanders and it takes too long. I'm sure this is a dicipline thing, and maybe when I start saying this chaplet it will pave the way to my saying the rosary. I was just excited about this I had to share. Somehow I've been drawn to the Immaculate Conception lately. I don't know why, it may be because my own mother is gone and I am sorely in need of some mothering. I've always been a bit afraid of the Blessed Virgin Mary, I don't know why, I had never understood Her greatness before I had done some reading lately. Now I do not fear Her at all, and see her as a wonderful mother figure.
Hope everyone is well. Take care, Beth

And I'm a bit envious of your wee Mary garden! If I ever get around to gardening in this lifetime (maybe in another year or two), I would like to make a small Mary garden - though DH would probably have a fit, as he's not even Catholic! We live in an area where Mary gardens in people's yards are not uncommon, and I always want to stop and admire them.

|Tue, 05-11-2004 - 9:36pm
I, too, love sacramentals. I own 3 rosaries, and I wear a little gold crucifix around my neck at all times (DH has a bigger one that he wears under his clothes). People who walk into our house who are not Catholic probably think we're religious fanatics, because I have a crucifix in nearly every major room, several madonna paintings and even a little madonna statue. In my opinion, part of what gives Catholicism its intrinsic beauty is the obvious Presence of God in the physical. I'm one who wishes we could have incense at every Mass--I love to worship with all my 5 senses! The religious objects in my house and around me (even in my car) are a constant reminder of Him Who is Love. They also serve, I believe, to convey the sacred to my children and to remind us daily of God. And I think they do their part to help drive out any unwanted forces of evil, too. We were so fortunate when we had this house built and moved in, because DH's cousin is a priest, and he came and celebrated a house Mass and blessed every room with Holy Water. I feel like that Holy Presence lingers sometimes.

|Wed, 05-12-2004 - 10:30am
Holy water, the crucifix, and statues of the Holy Family and the saints are ways I remind myself that God is always with me. Surrounding myself with these things helps keep me "wholesome" - much like surrounding myself with friends who love God.

What's really funny about what you said is that this past Easter morning I burned several sticks of frankincense! You and I were probably doing it at the same time! We must be spiritual sisters, LOL!
I get my incense on-line from Sensia. They have a great selection. I use the sticks, but I'm sure they have cones, too. They have both frankincense and myrrh, and even offer packages with samples of both, and their packs are very cheap. They deliver to your door quickly, too, and I think it's family-run. Here is the link:
Am I allowed to post that here? I hope so! Anyway, check it out, I think you'll find exactly what you're looking for in Church-y incense for a great price. Just type in "frankincense" or "myrrh" into their search bar. Good luck!
|Thu, 05-13-2004 - 9:42am
I admire that you find the time to be at peace with the Lord when you have 4 kids around. I have 3 kids and work full-time (DH is a SAHD) and I don't make time nearly often enough.
I like your nickname, BTW. Makes me look forward to my vacation in a few weeks. Every year we spend the first week of summer at the New Jersey shore, and while I occasionally think it would be nice to go elsewhere, it's become such a family tradition that no one wants to!

I have a few simple wishes for Facebook's mobile offerings. I access Facebook on-the-go using my iPhone - though I believe that these wishes will help more than just iPhone users.
One of the very first web apps for the iPhone and one that Apple has promoted during it's Keynote addresses - Facebook had a good start in providing a great experience for iPhone users. The only problem is that they haven't updated it in forever. This interface is lacking so much I'll simply have one wish. Update it please!
Without a doubt the Facebook iPhone application is one of the best designed iPhone applications available. It was also one of the first. Overall it is a fantastic way to access Facebook on the iPhone. However, here are my suggested additions:
While I'm jotting down my demands, I might as well put these few things in:
You have to wonder if Facebook was a more open platform, like Twitter is, from the beginning would some of this work have been done for them?
(Yes I typed this entire post on my iPhone.)

and I noticed this while I was at the Elysian yesterday:
8 styles -16 Breweries all in Firkins: 3PM Capitol Hill.
Pale Ale - Walking Man Knuckle Dragger Pale vs Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
IPA - Big Time Scarlet Fire vs Firestone Walker Union Jack Pale
Imperial IPA - Boundary Bay Imperial IPA vs Pizza Port Carlsbad Poor Mans IPA
ESB - Elysian The Wise ESB vs Marin Brewing ESB
Porter - Snoqualmie Steam train Porter vs Russian River Porter
Stout - Pike XXXStout vs Stone Russian Imperial Oak-aged Stout
Scotch Ale - Silver City Fat Woody Oak-aged Scotch Ale vs Bear Republic Heritage Scotch Ale
Specialty - Ram N-Gate Challenger Pale vs 21st Amendment Black IPA
Washington VS California!!
Then I read all the other events going on and I wish I had the vacation time to take the whole week off
Kegged: Stout
Barrelled: Oregon Group Brew Stout
Long term Secondary: Fool's Gold Barleywine
Next: Bohemian Pilsener
That would be nice to attend! I vote for Washington but I think it would be a better fight if they could include Oregon/Washington vs Cali, then there would be no contest but that is my unbiased opinion
I don't know, there are some pretty good California brewers in that lineup. Not saying that I'm not rooting for the home-team! Yeah if they added Oregon in that it would be no contest. But adding any two W. Coast states up against the other is a losing battle for the third.

The above analysis of the revised IHR, international trade law, and international human rights law assumes that the expanded NQS would be applying public health measures in U.S. territory. As noted earlier, the Consultant understands that the federal government may wish to include in the expansion of the NQS the placement of U.S. public health personnel and resources in the territories of foreign countries. This aspect of the strategy to expand the NQS raises different international considerations, which this part briefly explores.
The federal government generally, and the CDC specifically, have great experience with using public health experts and resources in international cooperation with other countries and international organizations. To the Consultant's knowledge, such cooperative ventures traditionally have not involved, however, establishing a permanent presence in other countries for purposes of minimizing exogenous threats to public health in the United States. Such a permanent presence implicates some basic principles of international law worth noting in this memorandum.
Federal government plans to expand the NQS by establishing assets overseas would require the full cooperation and permission of the foreign governments because these governments have sovereignty over their territories that the United States cannot infringe under international law. The principle prohibiting interference in the domestic affairs of other states supports the principle of sovereignty in underscoring the necessity that "forward deployment" of the expanded NQS be agreed in advance between the federal government and the foreign government.
Such agreements may be informal or formal under international law. The nature of the activities that the expanded NQS might undertake in the foreign country (e.g., inspection goods, cargo, and travelers bound for the United States) touch, however, on aspects of sovereignty and the organization of a country's domestic affairs that would make the expanded NQS' activities politically sensitive for a foreign government. A foreign government might be nervous about what kinds of information flows between the part of the expanded NQS in its territory and the rest of the system back in the United States. In all likelihood, a foreign government agreeing to host assets and personnel from the expanded NQS will require that the scope of the expanded NQS' activities in its territory be carefully delineated in a formal, written agreement.
Another reason why a foreign government may insist on clearly defining the nature of the expanded NQS' activities in its territory relates to that government's own responsibilities under international law. A foreign government will need to avoid situations in which inspections and control

Supreme Court of India Bats for Women's Work
The Supreme Court of India has passed on 22.7.10 what can only be termed as a fascinating landmark judgment in favour of women. I am attaching this judgment for the benefit of members. The case relates to the amount of payment in compensation to be made to the legal relatives of a housewife killed in a motor vehicle accident. However, in passing the judgment one of the Honourable Judges A.K. Ganguly has made some strong obiter dicta on the adverse gender bias against women in the Census of India definition of work that are absolutely top class as follows -
Despite the clear constitutional mandate to
eschew discrimination on grounds of sex in
Article 15(1) of the Constitution, in its
implementation there is a distinct gender bias
against women and various social welfare
legislations and also in judicial pronouncements.
Clause 6 of the said Schedule ( under section 163 A of the Motor vehicles Act, 1988 ) provides
for notional income of those who had no income
prior to accident. Clause 6 has been divided
into two classes of persons, (a) non-earning
persons, and (b) spouse. Insofar as the spouse
is concerned, the income of the injured in fatal
and non-fatal accident has been categorized as
1/3rd of the income of the earning and surviving
spouse. It is, therefore, assumed if the spouse
who does not earn, which is normally the woman in
the house and the homemaker, such a person cannot
have an income more than 1/3rd of the income of
the person who is earning. This categorization
has been made without properly appreciating the
value of the services rendered by the homemaker.
To value the income of the home-maker as onethird
of the income of the earning spouse is not
based on any apparently rational basis.
4.This bias is shockingly prevalent in the work of
Census. In the Census of 2001 it appears that
those who are doing household duties like
cooking, cleaning of utensils, looking after
children, fetching water, collecting firewood
have been categorized as non-workers and equated
with beggars, prostitutes and prisoners who,
according to Census, are not engaged in
economically productive work. As a result of
such categorization about 36 crores (367 million)
women in India have been classified in the Census
of India, 2001 as non-workers and placed in the
category of beggars, prostitutes and prisoners.
This entire exercise of Census operation is done
under an Act of Parliament.
5.Under Section 4 of the Census Act, 1948, the
Central Government may appoint a Census
Commissioner to supervise the taking of census
throughout the area where census is intended to
be taken.
6.The Central Government has made Census Rules,
1990 under Section 18 of the Census Act, 1948.
Under Rule 5(c), (d) and (e) of the Rules, the
functions of the Commissioner are listed, which
include devising the census schedules or
questionnaires, compiling and providing guidance
in taking and computing results and publishing
the statistics.
7. The Census Commissioner released data on
classification of population by workers and nonworkers
based on provisional results of the
Census of India 2001 on 30th January, 2002. Thus,
the categorization, compilation and computation
of the data was done under the supervision and
guidance of the Census Commissioner. This is
totally a statutory exercise by public
authorities. Therefore, this approach of equating
women, who are homemakers, with beggars,
prostitutes and prisoners as economically nonproductive
workers by statutory authorities
betrays a totally insensitive and callous
approach towards the dignity of labour so far as
women are concerned and is also clearly
indicative of a strong gender bias against women.
8.It is thus clear that in independent India also
the process of categorizing is dominated by
concepts which were prevalent in colonial India
and no attempt has been made to restructure those
categories with a gender sensitivity which is the
hallmark in our Constitution.
9.Work is very vital to the system of gender
reconstruction in societies and in this context
masculine and feminine work is clearly
demarcated. The question which obviously arises
is whether Census definition of work reflects the
underlying process of gender discrimination.
10.Women are generally engaged in home making,
bringing up children and also in production of
goods and services which are not sold in the
market but are consumed at the household level.
Thus, the work of women mostly goes unrecognized
and they are never valued.
11.Therefore, in the categorization by the Census
what is ignored is the well known fact that women
make significant contribution at various levels
including agricultural production by sowing,
harvesting, transplanting and also tending
cattles and by cooking and delivering the food to
those persons who are on the field during the
agriculture season.
12.Though, Census operation does not call for
consideration in this case but reference to the
same has been made to show the strong bias shown
against women and their work. We hope and trust
that in the on-going Census operation this will
be corrected.
There is of course also the point that why should prostitutes be considered as non workers when they are forced to sex work due to the patriarchal social structure of society. This has eluded the honourable judge but this is pardonable given that despite being a man he has penned such a fantastic judgment. Anyway, this can be taken up with the Census Commissioner by the National Commission for Women which can also push for legalisation of sex work in India. All in all I must say that I am thrilled that the Supreme Court has given such a judgment against adverse gender bias with regard to the valuation of women's work which has always been a sore point for me.
Thanks my sister and comrade, the journey of thousand year begins in a day! Surely the revolution has begin and as iusually write here that if we do not relent we shall surely have a glorious rest. Our plea and clamour is not in vain as we can see that gradiually the law is using our diction. There is an adage in my tribe that says. Limit your intake of the meat of a dog that died from mad dog disease, it is gradual swallowing because the facts on ground shows that they know what is happening and what they are doing. In gender analysis there is an approach called twenty four excercise wt can be used for rural poor or rich urban poor or rich and we later make our analysis. Thanks for this post and may god bless everywoman

Oh yes this is a good coinageFOR SOMEONE DOING SUCH A GOOD JOB , you know that I met some Kothi and Hijra community members they are souch happy and content people who do not really show any outward negative behaviour towards those of us who were really scared and could not hide our indignation at meeting such people for teh first time adn to make teh matter worse, I was chosen to thank and hug them for coming and that we appreciate adn understand themand you can really believe that by the end of the program, I was on their side and I was beaming with smiles as I hugged them one after teh other, I believe that they will never forget me for that brief meeting and acceptance.

Welcome ladybookworm!
I can see your dilemma. Is the iron frame expandable? Some of them you can adjust to fit the size of the bed and use caster cups under
|Fri, 02-05-2010 - 5:00pm
|Sat, 02-06-2010 - 4:19pm
Ok so it seems if I were to build one myself I'd end up spending as much as the cost of one of the too expensive frames I found since wood isn't as cheap as I thought it was. And I don't have all the required tools to properly assemble it.
The milk crate idea sounds fun actually. I remember swiping those before having to move (yes I now know that's stealing lol) when I was a kid. You can order the authentic ones (the ones found in department stores don't hold nearly as much weight) online, but the cost adds up given the number you'd need to provide adequate support.
Hmmm..... not sure what to do now, but I find that metal frame so irritating I may just stop sleeping in the bed altogether lol.
|Sun, 02-07-2010 - 12:58pm
Hi! I did a really quick google search and see that Amazon.com has some bedframes. Below is a link to a cute one with free shipping. (It says that it doesn't include the headboard or footboard, but it seems like the tall corner posts must be part of the frame. If you like the frame or the set, it might be worth a phone call/email to find out the details.)
Have you looked or asked on your local craigslist? I haven't used that site much myself, but I would think they have lots of household items.

Attendants hold umbrellas to protect delegates from rain as they arrive for the opening ceremony of 21st Century Council Conference at Beijing's Great Hall of the People in November.
BEIJING, China -- China has punished almost 20,000 officials in the last year for breaching rules to cut down on bureaucracy as well as pomp and ceremony, the government said on Monday.
President Xi Jinping ordered the crackdown late last year when he became head of the ruling Communist Party, seeking to assuage public anger at waste and extravagance, particularly officials seen abusing their position to illegally amass wealth.
Xi demanded meetings be shortened, over-the-top welcoming ceremonies ditched and wordy, meaningless speeches be abandoned, as he sought to cut red tape and make the country's bureaucracy more efficient and less prone to graft.
The party's anti-corruption watchdog, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, said the officials found breaching these rules had mostly been given administrative or internal party punishments. It did not give details.
More than 5,000 officials were found to have breached rules connected to the use of official cars, while 903 were guilty of organizing overly elaborate celebratory events, the watchdog said in a statement on its website.
Others were singled out for being "mediocre" or "indolent", the statement said.
Xi has said that endemic corruption threatens the party's very survival and has vowed to go after high-flying "tigers" as well as lowly "flies."

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has announced health insurance pools can not cover abortions. However, the program still makes an exception in cases of rape, incest, or the health of the mother.For more on the significance of the HHS's decision, click play for comments from Anna Franzonello, staff counsel with the Americans United for Life.
The Health department changed course after public outrage over recent decisions by the states of New Mexico and Pennsylvania to use federal taxpayer money for abortions.
Douglas Johnson, legislative director for National Right to Life, an anti-abortion group, acknowledged the Health Department's decision represented a victory for pro-lifers.
"If they now do what they say they are going to do, that would be good," Johnson said of the Obama administration. "But in our view they are doing it because the spotlight has been put on them and we blew the whistle."
Meanwhile, the abortion battle, which is centered on the president's health care law, is far from over.
Beginning in 2014, federally subsidized health insurance plans can cover abortions, if policy holders pay for coverage separately.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

As weather clears, Great Meredith Rotary Ice Fishing Derby draws crowd
Sandy Frost of Meredith sits on the front porch of her Bay View Cabin bob house on Meredith Bay Sunday. (DAN SEUFERT PHOTO)
Sandy Frost let the afternoon sun beam through her patio doors as she sat comfortably on her small Bay View Cabin couch, watching the anglers, snowmobile and ATV drivers drive by. Later, she sat on the front porch of the 8-by-8-foot house, soaking up the sun.
"I didn't get a fishing license this year," she said. "Today I'm just enjoying everybody having fun."
There were lots of smiles and laughs on Meredith Bay Sunday, as outdoor enthusiasts and others had grills, beer kegs, and a host of vehicles among the village of almost 100 bob houses in the final day of the derby.
It was a huge change from Saturday, when ice-cold temperatures, heavy winds and the fresh nor'easter snow covered much of the bay.
Sunday's warmer temperatures and lack of wind made for a much better experience, attendees said.
It was a banner year for bob houses, especially compared to last year, when the derby was held despite a lack of ice on Meredith Bay.
Frost, of Meredith, has been a competitor in the derby in past years, but said she and her husband decided to set up their home-built bob house, which they have owned for several years, this year for use as a station for snowmobiling fun on the ice.
One of her neighbors also had an unusual house. Bruce Peterson of Meredith had his "castle" bob house up. He bought the house a few years ago from a friend who used to use it on Squam Lake.
Unlike Frost's house, Peterson's has a hole in the floor in which to fish. But like Frost, Peterson was on the ice for the fun of it.
"I'm not a good fisherman," said Peterson, who says he's been fishing in the derby for 14 years.
"I just do it to be with the people out here, you can't beat the people out here."
A few houses over, Matt Cote of Meredith had his two-story, three-hole bob house, but sat by his woodstove inside. His second story is a loft for sleeping.
"I'm having a blast, I always do here," Cote said.

Help me out on the range for "low-cost.". These days, I think it is safe to say we all know we don't want, nor need, to spend $2,000 - $3,000or more, but are you talking $300 - $499, $500 - $749, $750 - $999, $1,000 - $1,500...?
Also, what is your timetable? NOW, by the end of the year, early next year, by the Spring busy season... ?
Feel free to look at other related posts on this site for related items, or PM me if you feel more comfortable talking off-line.
Hope to be able to help!

My budget is $200-500. No real rush. Just needing something that can properly run Apex Nexus, since it integrates with ACI. I looked at some of the posts and most mention iPads, Galaxy Tabs, etc.. but I can't run Nexus on these, since they do not support that type of operating system. Most of these users are using Davinci with Wintotal.
FWIW, I believe you will be better served with either our Android sketcher or the MobileSketch module for regular Apex vs. going with Nexus. At present, Nexus really works best with a Tablet featuring an "Active Pen" digitizer and there are no good ones in that price range. Hence, I think you should be looking at "touch tablets." For light weight, low cost, etc., Android Tabs fit the bill, but we will not release MobileSketch for Android Tabs for another 30+ days IMHO. Of course, our iOS and Android sketch files can be read in Apex, just like they could when we were doing Pocket PC programs:-)
Unfortunately, ACI does not integrate with Nexus - I surely wish they would, but the fact of the matter is that they do not. Of course, they do integrate with Apex, and I assume you use that now (?) since you posted in this forum. We will be releasing a "touch tablet" add-on for Apex sometime in November/December, so that may actually be your best path. Being a "touch tablet" add-on to regular Apex, you can skip the expense of the active pen tablets and open up some more possibilities in your price range. Since you are not in a big rush, I will look into Windows touch tablets in your price range and get back with you on what I find. I have several here, but they are earlier models that I purposely bought as "underpowered" models to test performance. I am sure there are better ones out now, but I have not done an extensive search lately, nor bought and used any. I will be doing this, however, in the next 30 days as I get this add-on ready for shipping, so your request for info comes at a mostly convenient time.
[Edit] We do not have any public materials for the MobileSketch add-on for Apex, but FWIW here is a link to a video showing MobileSketch on a "Pad" done way back this past summer. The MobileSketch add-on will work largely the same, just "inside" regular (desktop) Apex. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB1EKwH1nKE
Let me know if this is the sort of info you are looking for and I will do my best to try and help.

I went to the local Best Buy and checked out their tablets. I really liked the Htc Flyer. Looks like it is an android operating system and price was in my ball park. Once mobile sketch for Android comes out, will I be able to use this device with it? Also, I have Apex Medina on my desktop. Can I integrate it with this new version of Mobile Sketch. I am currently using the older version of Mobile Sketch, which I purchased back in 2005 on my old Ipaq that is almost at its end of its life. My older version of Mobile Sketch integrates with Medina V.4. Thanks for your help.
I am recommending you hold off on a purchase for two reasons. First, neither piece of software is shipping yet; and second, if you have been following any of my other posts, I believe you will see new devices on the shelves in the next 30 -60 days. The new devices, priced at similar levels as the ones there now, will simply be much better, but ALSO, they have the effect of making the current devices (most, already plenty sufficient) drop like a rock with respect to price. Of course, availability will suffer if people snatch them up quickly... Anyway, what is coming out just now and soon addresses both ends of the market - the gadget freak and the bargain hunter, plus those in the middle, who might simply get the better current device now that it costs less :-)
As for the Flyer, what was it you liked so much? Knowing your answer will help me better tailor a more meaningful reply.
As for either version of MobileSketch - the iOS/Android program or the add-on to regular Apex, each requires you upgrade to Apex v5. As you may know, I am NOT in sales, so this is just my hunch, but I would imagine when these programs are released to the public, there will be some sort of promotional bundling over and above our normal upgrade discounts, etc. My guess is, that either way, it'll end up running you about the same sort of money and your decision will be based on whether you want an add-on to your full Apex or a separate program on a machine running a different OS. The advantage of the iOS/Android route is a plethora of machines to choose from and the advantage of the add-on route is having the "full meal deal" with you at all times, including your forms software (?) if desired. It really depends on how you envision "going mobile"... data gathering only or also being able to fill out reports in the field, at lunch, whatever...
Oh, BTW, next time you are at Best Buy, be sure to check out the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9... Under a pound, bright high resolution screen - super sweet. The NEW 7.0 Plus will be out in weeks and be even lighter. The 7.7 has a SAMOLED screen and looks to be nice, but I cannot get a straight answer from Samsung as to delivery dates. I happen to like the 7" form factor, but both the 7.7 and 8.9 are nice "tweeners." I believe most of the Windows Tabs in your price range will be 10.1" but they tend to be popular for their size...
Let me know if this is making sense or if I am off base with my comments.

The reason I liked the Htc Flyer was the size. It was a bit smaller than most of the other tablets, had the option of a stylus pen, so I can take notes in the field vs having to use my fingers to type. Not sure if I saw the Samsung Galaxy 8.9 tab. I have an iMac and run Vmware to runs Windows Xp for my ACI and everything else on my iMac. ACI does not have any mobile form fillers like Alamode does and their minimum requirements to even run their program has been upped to 2gb RAM, 1 ghz Dual Core. So most tablets might not work with ACI.
Looked at that Galaxy Tab 7 online. Seems to be a much better tablet vs the Htc Flyer. I spoke to ACI today and they said they do not integrate with Apex V.5. So what does ACI integrate with for mobile sketching?
Understood on the size thing. Lot to like there IMHO. The new GalTab is much nicer than the old one, but I don't think Best Buy has that on the shelves yet. The new one is thinner than the iPad 2... :-). Think "Kindle thin and light" and you'll get an idea. Should be there in weeks... I like the 7.7 even better, but as I said, no official word on delivery (yet.). For now, the 8.9 is my favorite "tweener"... Go fondle it ;-)
I will check on the ACI and Apex v5 thing. I know for a fact they have had it since last Spring. They must have all their attention on other items ATM... Go figure... The problem with adding MobileSketch support to Medina is that v4 is already 5+ years old and the code has been closed for about 2 years. Doesn't make sense to open up old code for that. You do know that you can run Apex "stand-alone", right. You can do that now - That feature has been there "forever"... No reason you cannot run v5 and send your sketch to your v4 program. Of course, the BEST thing for you is to see why ACI has not integrated v5 yet. Nothing changed in the integration (just added stuff like usual) so maybe it is a licensing thing or they have just been too busy with other things... Did they tell you why it is not integrated yet or an estimate of when they might get to it? I know they still sell new copies of v4 and v5 is a much better program... Oh well, like I said, I do NOT get involved with sales stuff, so I just don't get it...
FWIW, the Acer Iconia W500 easily meets and exceeds their quoted specs and it is just under $500. They have a nifty keyboard dock, too, for about $75 the last time I looked. It s not as slick as the one for the ASUS Transformer, but it works to allow you to type away when attached, adds ports, etc. I would expect this device to drop some around "Black Friday", especially when the Latitude ST comes out as well as a couple of others. Just a thought... I don't think Best Buy lists the W500, just the A100 and A500 (Android.). Of course, this s a 10.1" device, so it is larger than the crop of 7-inchers... Still, worth a look IMHO.
The issue with the Flyer and the pen is that it can only be used in specific apps, not with everything... limited value there IMHO. Users report they like the screen outdoors, though, but it still glossy (most/all are) - the advantage is that it is bright enough to counteract all but really strong direct sun. You will find that several of the newer devices are as bright or brighter and I have been having good results from a few of the better ($20+) anti-glare screen protectors. I will be publishing something on that in November. A more thorough and integrated pen support is a part of Android 4.0, so I did not put pen support for the Flyer in our app. It will be there for Android 4 if the devices which natively support it are popular enough.
Hope this helps!

I'll wait till black friday and see what is out there. I like the Samsung Galaxy features and specs of the 7.7 from what i've seen online. The Acer is a bit larger, but it is also more machine.
The guy at ACI had no clue on the Apex V.5. Seems like they have been too busy working on their UAD integration from crashing, that everything else was put on the back burner. Apex stand alone works with Windows, but not Android tablets, such as Samsung Galaxy?
