Good choice!
The dress style is beautiful but the color is not as picture.

Color is misleading
The dress is beautiful but the color is not as picture. I wanted a white/tapioca dress for my wedding festivities. However, the color is more of a peach/light tan color. Does not look white or off white like the picture. Will be retuning the dress. Very upsetting.

The Pray-O-Mat is perfect for religious people on the run. The device, which was designed by Oliver Sterm from Germany, makes praying convenient.
His design for the Pray-O-Mat looks exactly like a photo booth. The booth holds over 300 prayers and is available in 65 different languages. The on-the-go religious experience is hoping to help people of faith get their daily dose of prayer in even while they're out and about. All users have to do is pop in 50 cents, select their favorite prayer on the touch screen and pray along with it.
These religious booths, which were first seen in Germany, will be making their debut around the U.K. They're being installed in 'multi-faith spaces,' according to Oddity Central.

This shipping container office looks exactly like what it is made of. Purposefully, no effort was put in to make the building look any different than its material.
This sales office, designed by Rinka Chung Architecture, is for a fancy upscale condo called The Moderne that will be built in Milwaukee. Meant to make a statement about the area's industrial past, the shipping container sales office is also convenient and a bold eco-friendly move.

Browser on BB10 "A game changer"
Right now on Business News Televison in Canada. Chris Eben, from the "Working Group" talking right now about how the BB10 browser will have capabilities beyond any current browser and makes the concept of apps. OBSOLETE. His words not mine. Now he goes on to say he is waiting to see what happens with market acceptance of the devices and operating system before jumping into developing apps. Sees BB10 browser as creating a new reality for web access!! Nice to see more positive news on BB10 continue to stream in.
Native apps versus web based - HTML 5 allows the browser to do this versus the OIS need of "apps"
Nice to hear that this is possible and that BB10 is the first to have this capability!!Thanked by 3:el_excelsior (12-16-2012), Lehomer (12-16-2012), zyben (12-15-2012)

Browser on BB10 "A game changer"
My big concern is the html5 score. You can have a great score and have a soso browser. My playbook scored 50pts higher than my macbook pro today. Yet my playbook browser is far inferior than the mbp's browser. The playbook browser checkerboards a lot even after a full page is loaded.
So they keep throwing this score around to impress people but its all in how the browser works rather than the highness of a score.
You can have book smarts but be street dumb.

Yea, @eve6er69 is 100% correct. Playbook browser checkerboards and is slow. Although, the BB10 browser does have a high browser score it is amazing. They got rid of checkerboard as the background base, or at least it seems that way because I never see it. I guarantee you it is an amazing browser, not because of the HTML5 score but because of the rendering speed.

Browser on BB10 "A game changer"
I understand that but if you look at some of the articles I vaguely remember them saying it scored higher than a desktop browser.
I wasn't trying to compare rather trying to say I hope they don't try to use this as a comparison tool in the mobile space.

I would not read too much into sunspider results, they seem to have a much wider range of possible results on a mobile device over a number of iterations than they do if you run it on your desktop and also the limiting factor tends to be the memory bandwidth of the ARM chip being used too. The main use for such a benchmark is to demonstrate that a device is in the same ballpark as others more than anything more definitive.

It's pretty fast, but the speed has to do with a lot of things. The ui still seems weirdly sluggish at times on the dev alpha a. The rendering of webpages is fine, but there is still some lag in the ui. Obviously I am not on final build so who knows.
LOL.... Mike, always trying to manage expectations. In the end, this doesn't work, because reality will always catch up to people, and will temper their outlook or not.
Why not let the dreamers dream! Who knows, maybe their dreams will come true!

Meh, I think it's silly to make false claims, especially when theyre grand claims even though there's evidence to the contrary.
I guess I'll never be able to understand the need to over analyze and over glorify something like a cellphone, especially when that praise relies on conjecture or lies about competing platforms.

James Bond's Diamonds are Forever
In the film Diamonds are Forever, Bond stays at the Tropicana while in Las Vegas. (Ethan Miller/Getty)
When M gives James Bond the mission of intercepting a diamond heist, the spy protests, "But surely, sir, there's no need to bring in our section for a relatively simple smuggling matter." Little does Bond know that this "simple smuggling matter" will involve super villain clones, the threat of mass destruction and a giant diamond-powered laser -- all against the backdrop of the Nevada desert. Would 007 fans expect any less?
The 1971 film Diamonds are Forever saw Sean Connery return to his role as the international spy with a license to kill, a part he walked away from four years prior (after having completed five films for the series). "Bond is back!" the movie posters trumpeted -- to the considerable excitement of the many fanatics who felt strongly that Connery was always the best man for the job.
In Diamonds are Forever, the actor's illustrious return takes him to two dens of debauchery: Amsterdam and Las Vegas. From the glistening canals of the former to the shimmering lights of the latter, these locations fit the film like a glove.
Bond begins his mission in Amsterdam, where the picturesque River Amstel reveals the dead body of an elderly missionary from South Africa who was involved in the diamond smuggling ring. Visitors can enjoy the river via canoe, kayak or powerboat, or bike or hike the surrounding countryside, where 17th-century houses dot the green landscape. For a room with a view of the canal, the Amstel Canal House offers cosy accommodations with a modern aesthetic in the heart of the city.
We meet the first Bond girl of the film (in various states of undress) in her apartment, located at Reguliersgracht 36 on the third floor. After you snap a few shots of the building, which appears more or less unchanged since the movie was shot, head across the street to Barney's Lounge for the full Amsterdam experience. Located in a 500-year-old building, this stylish coffee shop features a chic interior and a different DJ nearly every night.
Posing as a diamond smuggler, Bond visits the Slumber Mortuary, a fictional Las Vegas-area morgue that serves as the criminal operation's front business, where the bad guys plan to burn Bond alive in a crematorium. Just as the flames begin to engulf our woeful hero, the henchmen discover that the diamonds he gave them are fakes, and they are forced to open the chamber in order to find out where the real ones are. Exteriors for the scene were shot at the Palm Boulder Highway Mortuary and Cemetery in Henderson, about 15 miles outside of Las Vegas. According to the Internet Movie Database, some parts of this sequence were shot around the Las Vegas Visitors Bureau, today the Las Vegas Visitors Information Center -- a great place to find out about shows and events taking place in town.
Much of the film Diamonds are Forever takes place in the ever-shiny Sin City, with a heavy focus on the glitzy hotels and casinos that Bond and Bond fans have come to know and love. Several of the iconic hotels featured in the movie have long since closed, including the Sands Hotel, the Dunes, the Landmark, the Mint and the International Hotel, which plays the part of the Whyte House, home to millionaire Willard Whyte (who ultimately helps Bond foil the evil plot of his arch nemesis, Blofeld). The International, Sin City's first megaresort, had only been open for about two years when the movie was released. The property today is a new hotel, the Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.
Still around today, though, are the Riviera Hotel and Casino -- where another Bond girl, the none-too-bright Plenty O'Toole gets thrown out of a window several stories up -- and the Tropicana, where Bond stays.
For a mere $6,800, you and your favourite Bond girl (or guy) can experience Las Vegas in much the same manner as 007 might with the Secret Agent 702 Tour. The trip includes a private helicopter flight to the Grand Canyon (complete with Champagne for two, of course), a 3,800ft zipline adventure, the chance to race Ferraris on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and a stay in the boutique hotel on the top floor of the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino, HOTEL32.

Build-Your-Own-Blocks: Stimulating Toddler Creativity
Large, lightweight blocks are easier for toddlers to handle and that makes for more fun (and skill-building!).
Time to start building! Encourage your child to stack his blocks as high as he can, or place them end to end to form a wall — or even a fort. Show him how to place smaller blocks atop bigger ones, and let him experiment with reversing that order (tumbling blocks are fun, too!).
Here's why it's good for toddlers: This activity provides lessons in cause and effect, as well as size and shape discrimination. It also boosts spatial awareness, problem solving, and fine motor skills.

Knights rebuild around captains
Head Coach: Mark Fowler
2013 Record: 17-2-1
Key Player: Matt Peloquin
The Knights soccer dynasty is in a bit of a rebuilding mode. The team lost a lot of firepower in Grayson Smith and Evan and Vaughn Fowler.
"In order for us to compete this year a few of the younger lads will have to step up," stated Fowler.
A trio of senior captains lead the way for Dale- midfielders Matt Peloquin and Austin Correia and forward Matthew Mangano.
Peloquin is lauded by Fowler for his high soccer IQ and distribution skills, while Correia is a scrappy player with a great first touch. Mangano is a strong, "robust" forward that can also drop back to play the midfield.
The Knights move to Conference 3 this year with top-notch teams Cosby and James River to compete with.
Warriors are motivated and hungry to improve
Head Coach: Justin Parker
2013 Record: 7-8-1
Key Player: Davis Topping
After a down year by Matoaca standards, a young group of players is hungry to improve for Warriors soccer.
"We've worked hard in the off-season and had up-tempo practices," said head coach Justin Parker. "We're going to improve."
Matoaca is led by Davis Topping, a very technical soccer player who earned All-Central District second team honors last year. The Warriors play through Topping, a captain.
Goalie and captain Jacob Williamson is one of the best goalies in the area, and returns. Sophomore Justin Dyke is a great defender who started as a freshman. Parker applauded Williamson's and Dyke's instincts for the game and both should be standouts.
Skyhawks look to Vincent for leadership
Head Coach: Juan Chavez
2013 Record: 1-13
Key Player: Sebastian Vincent
The Skyhawks are led by senior defender Sebastian Vincent, a member of Bird varsity for three years. Vincent, the kicker on Bird's football team has good size, providing a large backfield presence.
Goalie Zach Winter, a senior, has great goalkeeping skills and is consistent in the net. Junior Zachary Peppers plays the midfield and distributes well.
"The team is much more adept touching the ball and playing as a team," said Vincent. "We essentially started building a soccer team from the ground up last year, but we expect to be much more competitive this year."
The move to Conference 12 will give the Skyhawks a better shot to compete in the postseason in 2014.
Monarch seniors will lead the way this Spring
Head Coach: Gabriel Hochstetler
2013 Record: 12-2-2
Key Player: Rudy Argueta
This year's version of the Monarchs have a tough act to follow in one of the best seasons in school history, but they are ready for the challenge, led by senior leader Rudy Argueta and a host of speedy teammates.
"This team is quick and has good field vision," said first year head coach Gabriel Hochstetler. "This team also has a lot of senior leaders."
Argueta is intense and plays with his head up, leading by example. Roberto Romero and Heber Quintanilla will man midfield while Fernando Estrada and Emerson Corena will play up front with excellent rapport, having played together for years.

Reynolds Army Community Hospital has transitioned to Army Medical Home (AMH) teams by using the concept of Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH). PCMH is a new model of healthcare being adopted by leading healthcare systems across the country. The patient-centered medical home is a team-based model of care that provides comprehensive primary care for the entire family. In this model, a team of health professionals, coordinated by a physician, works collaboratively to provide high levels of care, access and communication with its patients. The physician-led team is responsible for providing all the patients healthcare needs and, when needed, arranges for appropriate care with other qualified physicians. At its heart, the PCMH is healthcare the way it should be - easily accessible, patient-centered, healthcare provider team-based, and quality-focused. Appointments for all home teams can be made online at tricareonline.com or by calling 558-2000, Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013: This year you will have many opportunities available to you. You might question which way to go. You also will be sought after for your ability to see both sides of an issue. Feelings often become intense; however, if you tap into your creativity and express your emotions, you will be OK. If you are single, you have no excuse for not going out. You have quite the selection of potential suitors. If you are attached, as a couple you will decide to take up a new, creative interest or hobby. You can count on LEO's honesty.
The stars show the kind of day you'll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
★ ★ ★ ★: Your actions could keep others busy looking for better solutions. Whereas you once were somewhat predictable, at this point the same is not true. If you get a strong reaction from others, ask yourself if it could have anything to do with your newfound spontaneity.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
★ ★ ★ ★: You could be inundated by decisions you need to make. For various reasons, you might be stuck in a situation where you can't find a way out. The unexpected occurs, as you might find yourself having to juggle family, home and work all at once.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
★★★★: Consider what is happening within your immediate circle. You also might be unsure of an important person who typically serves as an anchor for you. Focus on what needs to happen in a conversation. Make an effort to move forward with an improved view.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
★ ★ ★: You could feel rather unsure about your options for the near future. You might need to spend more than you would like to. While you juggle different interests, stop and consider your priorities. You can only go so far.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
★ ★ ★ ★: The Moon highlights you, and others seek you out. You might be able to zero in on a long-term desire, but you need to know what you want. A friend invites you to join him or her. Stay neutral; you are in the process of manifesting a life change.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★ ★ ★: A partner could encourage you to let go of a self-imposed restraint. You might not be sure as to what would be best, or in which direction you should head. Check in with an older family member to hear some special news.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★★: Honor how much a friendship means to you. You can't avoid the absence of this person, and standing on ceremony won't help. You might feel as if you're being pulled in two different directions. Do nothing if you're unsure about which choice to make.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★ ★ ★: You continue to feel pulled in different directions. You might wonder what to do in a situation that you clearly cannot control. Recognize that you probably never will be able to control anything but yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★★★: Follow your knee-jerk response, though you might question whether it's the right way to go. Others clearly understand where you are coming from. Opinions will differ just the same. You could find that you have to make an uncomfortable choice.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★★: Others become available. Have a discussion with key people, and know that it could result in a decision to let them take the lead. Give up being so serious. You might feel as if you do not have enough funds to do what you want. Let go, and just be.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb .18)
★★★★★: You offer a lot, and others are drawn to your unique ideas and fun ways. Try to defer to these individuals a bit more than usual. Someone around you has a very strong personality and is comfortable only when he or she is in control. Let it be.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
★ ★ ★ ★: You need to relax more than you need to have a good time; however, you can do both. First, run errands and get some shopping done. Afterward, you can be carefree. Join friends ASAP. You don't need any complicated or fancy plans.

Netgear Wireless Home Theater Kit Will Help You Ditch Cable Tv
While there are already several ways of streaming media throughout your home network, you might want to check out Netgear's upcoming Wireless-N HD Home Theater Kit, which promises high quality streaming – even multiple Blu-ray streams – with plug and play ease.
The kit consists of a pair of adapters – one plugs into your router or gateway, while the other sticks close to your media devices, be it a computer, gaming console or Ethernet/WiFi-compatible TV. The adapters make use of the 5 GHz band to transmit data to avoid interference that may be caused by other wireless gear in the vicinity.
The kit is modular too, i.e. you can add additional adapters if the second one can't serve all of your gadgets. No word on the price yet, but they'll be available this fall. Check out Netgear's website for more details.

The machine-to-machine (M2M) sector is difficult to track because it is diffuse in a couple of ways. On one hand, there are many elements in an M2M platform – from basic connectivity to the intelligence that may be specific to a particular application – that make quantifying a chore. In addition, the line between M2M and other types of communications is a bit fuzzy. After all, all electronic communications is two or more devices communicating. The precise line between M2M and other approaches is in the eye of the beholder.
However, just because something is hard to quantify doesn't mean it isn't a big deal. M2M – which is a complementary concept to both the cloud and the evocatively titled "Internet of Things" – is a really big deal. Much of the established and growing consumer and commercial GPS industry, home automation, remote sensor (i.e., monitoring pipelines) and myriad other sectors depend upon M2M. Each of these potentially is a big winner. Put them all together and the result is a massive sector.
Late last week, ABI Research reported that cellular M2M module shipments grew 21 percent in 2012 compared to 2011 and will almost reach the 100-million-unit market in 2015. The firm said that it is "interesting" that while North America is set to do well, the biggest gains are expected in Latin America, the Mideast and Africa, where – no pun intended – telematics will be a driving force.
More good tidings came from Rogers Communications, a Canadian broadband and wireless provider. Yesterday, The Globe and Mail reported that the company expects to double revenue from M2M during the next two years. Rogers expects to reach the $100-million-per-year mark in 2015 by providing M2M for traffic lights, parking meters, automatic teller machines and similar services. That list, by the way, is a good indicator of how pervasively M2M is integrating itself into the fabric of day-to-day life. The story offers a vignette that further makes this point.
Machina Research also sees growth. Late last year, the firm published predictions about M2M growth. It projects that worldwide connections will increase from 2 billion at the end of 2011 to 18 billion at the end of 2022.
Perhaps more interesting is Informa's breakdown of usage. The consultants project consumer electronics and intelligent buildings will account for 70 percent of connections. The release offers far more numbers and details than traditional press releases, and is worth a close look.
There clearly is a lot going on in the sector. This is demonstrated by an almost certainly incomplete roundup of news of only a few days: "Smart M2M" provider Lantronix announced that it is expanding Arrow Electronics' efforts in Asia-Pacific; Etisalat and Pacific Controls said that they are creating green M2M applications and support in the Mideast, Africa and Asia; and Novatel Wireless gained approval for its MT3050 from Verizon.
The bottom line is that M2M is all around us. Two of the greatest technical trends of our day – mobility and the cloud – ensure that M2M will continue to thrive for generations.

You can spend a weekend in Philadelphia and eat almost every meal in a different Stephen Starr restaurant. A former concert promoter, Starr is a supercharged urban planner/party planner who frequently describes his properties in terms of movies and television shows. But don't call them theme restaurants; instead, Starr creates complete environments with an artistic, almost cerebral approach.Here, the best places (and times) for an all-Starr sampler.
BRUNCH JONES The retro décor of Jones—swivel chairs, wall-to-wall carpeting, even a fieldstone fireplace—seems a cross between the Mid-Century Modern of Rob and Laura Petrie and the Brady Bunch's seventies split-level ranch. Order the BMW pancakes: caramelized bananas, maple syrup, and walnuts. 700 Chestnut St.; 215/223-5663; brunch for two $35.
LUNCH CONTINENTAL A stainless-steel diner retooled as a martini bar with a global tapas menu. Olive-shaped halogen lamps pierced by huge toothpicks are suspended over the booths; the banquettes are olive green with pimiento-red trim. 138 Market St.; 215/923-6069; lunch for two $35.
DINNER POD If George and Jane Jetson opened an Asian-fusion place of their own, Pod would be it. There's a sushi conveyor belt, molded rubber furniture that lights up when you sit down, and high-gloss white poured-resin walls. 3636 Sansom St.; 215/387-1803; dinner for two $80.
DINNER ALMA DE CUBA A collaboration with nuevo latino master Douglas Rodriguez means signature ceviche (such as Fire and Ice: fluke with preserved lemon and hot garlic oil) and Cuban-inspired dishes like truffled empanadas and sugarcane-skewered tuna. 1623 Walnut St.; 215/988-1799; dinner for two $80.
DINNER BUDDAKAN A 10-foot gold Buddha watches over a long communal table in this former post office. On the menu: ginger martinis, edamame ravioli, and roasted ponzu chicken. 325 Chestnut St.; 215/574-9440; dinner for two $80.
LATE NIGHT TANGERINE You'll walk through a long, come-to-the-Casbah candlelit entranceway before you find the dining room, where votive candles, tucked into dozens of tiny individual niches along one wall, flicker like the twinkling lights of a distant city. 232 Market St.; 215/627-5116; dinner for two $80.
WHENEVER YOU CAN GET A TABLE MORIMOTO Starr joined forces with Masaharu Morimoto (TV's Iron Chef) and designer Karim Rashid to create this stunningly beautiful space. The walls are so rounded and smooth that they're almost liquid, while glass-top tables are framed by opalescent, lit-from-within benches that slowly shift from blue and green to fuchsia. Morimoto's ever-changing omakase ("Put yourself in my hands") is a multicourse tasting menu that may include such delicacies as hot-oil sashimi (live scallops splashed with blended hot oil and sprinkled with ginger and chives) or Kobe beef foie gras with Japanese sweet potato. 723 Chestnut St.; 215/413-9070; omakase for two $160.
Philadelphia is within easy driving distance of its nearest big-city siblings: 109 miles south of New York City and 136 miles north of Washington, D.C. Another option: leave the car behind and come here by train (Amtrak serves the city from several points along the Eastern Seaboard), arriving at the grand 1934 30th Street Station. It's a short walk (or cab ride, if you really miss that car) to Center City.


text: Vodafone Qatar Interview with Qatar VisitorAlso see: Qatar Mobile Phones & Getting on the Web in Qatar In an interview with Qatar Visitor Vodafone Qatar CEO Grahame Maher claims Qtel have been too slow to respond to competition, and that their promotions confuse and anger customers.Click here to read a summary of the interview. QV: You're up against a huge competitor in Qtel with massive resources and an entrenched position in Qatar, and you paid close to eight billion riyals to win the licence. So, our first question is why did Vodafone came to Qatar? Grahame: Quite a few reasons. Firstly, to make an investment into the GCC or the Middle East proper, one of the only countries in the world left where the second player position is available. Secondly, we think the number two position is the best potential position in any market. Thirdly we had good relationships between our chairman and the royal family in Qatar, so we know our partner and indeed we have the best partner in the market in Qatar Foundation. Then there is a chance for us to try out a completely different business model here which we think has the capability of being our future business model around the world, and that being where we are not putting up all the money and owning the business, we are a small minority shareholder but we run and manage the whole business. "...there is a chance for us to try out a completely different business model here." That is a very interesting model for us to look at for countries like Qatar where we cannot have majority ownership, but it is a lot less costly business model than having to buy full ownership of a business. That would give us the potential to go into many, many more markets, which is a big upside for us. QV: You're a huge company abroad, so how does it feel to be the small player in Qatar? Grahame: That's not quite the case. In many countries we are number two, in some countries we are number three, in one or two we are number one, but actually being here, as the number two player, is one of the best positions in the world and the one which we like to have. Now, Qtel is an early starter, we had a more difficult starting point because we were new, but we were new once in the UK, we were new once in Egypt, we were new once in India, and already we have a twenty percent market share after only a few months. QV: Is there advantage here in having such a high population turnover? Grahame: Absolutely, and I think that speaks more to why it is worth going into the market. It is one of the key factors in the Gulf, so even though there is a 120% penetration, or whatever numbers you want to believe, that population changes all the time, so there is always new business coming into the country. As a result, this population penetration issue, which we would be worried about in many markets, is not an issue in the Gulf countries. QV: How many users have you got so far and are you meeting with the goals you set? Grahame: The latest figures we have got on customer numbers was 340,000, which is 20% of the population, and is way ahead of what we expected. QV: How many more do you see Vodafone getting? Grahame: I think a lot of the influx we have seen before is the early rush of people, from people who were waiting for Vodafone and so on, so I don't expect that rate to continue. But we expect to see good steady rates now over the next three or four years, five years, and aim towards what we'd like to get, you know, which is forty or fifty percent of the market share. "...what we'd like to get ... is forty or fifty percent of the market share." That would see us with a good position as a solid number two, which is our preferred position in the market place. QV: There must be a section of the population, very low income, which doesn't use mobile phones. Grahame: Actually, while we don't have a definitive number, most of the population here, more than say, India, even though they are low socio-economic groups, can still afford a mobile and probably have one. There are some who don't, but it is very limited actually, it's quite surprising. The reason being is that an Indian worker in Qatar is probably relatively well off compared to an Indian worker in India. The second thing is that communication here is critical, because the people working here all have family in Nepal, Pakistan, India, so they are generally mobile users - it is not a hundred percent, but it is pretty high. QV: At the moment Vodafone is making a loss... Grahame: That's the case, and that would be the case anywhere because what we do initially is spend a large amount of capital on building a network and paying licence fees and then over time we become profitable. I think in the UK it took us four or five years, in Australia it took us seven years, so it's quite common to take some time. QV: When do you see yourself turning a profit? Grahame: 2013. QV: What are the biggest challenges you have come across setting up Vodafone here? Grahame: Really getting the network rolled out, because it has never been done before, not by a private company as such - when Qtel did it, they were the government, and there was no need to go through an approval process to build a network. There was nothing in place for that, so it took a lot of time working with the municipalities to put in processes and systems to be able to allow a whole lot of contractors to be able to build a network. The other things were the set up costs, the set up issues and finding staff, building systems, all of which took time to achieve, and the other thing was building the coverage, there was an army of problems to solve! Now, however, we can look back with an immense satisfaction that within 12 months we have achieved mobile coverage of 100% of the country, we have developed systems and processes, we have recruited a whole team to run the business and have 20% population share within 12 months and it lovely to look back and think wow, it really happened. QV: You have signs up across Qatar next to your temporary sites, saying: "Help us build the world's best mobile network and get rid of the temporary sites." Are you having problems getting permanent sites and how can people help you? QV: Certainly yes in the early stages, but now I think we have almost completely finished our acquisition of permanent sites, so we are in a very different position to where we were twelve months ago. And what we are doing now is trying to take those temporary sites down. Twelve months ago, I think we had one site, and today we have well in excess of 350 sites and more than half of those have already been built as permanent, so we have replaced 50% of the trailers, and about another 40 percent of the permanent locations have been found. Now we are just building them - obviously, it takes a while to build them. QV: Qtel is not the easiest business to compete against. They have raised their game since you came into Qatar, they are taking advantage of their position to bombard their customers with text advertising and they are plastering Qatar with adverts. Are they playing fair? Grahame: I think Qtel are a great organisation, actually, and I think they are a good company, it's great to see that they have woken up from what was an extremely slow organisation which never did anything. That's great for the country, great for the customers, and great for Qatar. And they also play in other markets, so they know the rules, but they have waited too long to respond. They should have done a lot of what they are doing now before we came along, and I think people would have respected that, I think there is now a lot of skepticism from the customers saying how come we only get better service after we have a choice. "... they [Qtel] have waited too long to respond. They should have done a lot of what they are doing now before we came along..." But they are a good competitor, I don't see them as a big scary competitor, to be frank, we compete with much bigger business around the world, companies which are far bigger than Qtel, but Qtel is a very good business. QV: You are paying a much smaller amount of money to win a second fixed-line licence, an area generally considered outside your area of expertise. Is this something you are really interested in? Grahame: We've run fixed business around the world as well but as you know we are known for mobile. But generally people think we are the number two player in fixed line, or maybe number three, and we think strategically, globally, we'll be more and more in fixed in the future so we still have that position around fixed line businesses. I think the difference, a very important difference, is what we see in the value of the fixed business here and in the rest of the world is actually broadband connectivity and high speed camera access, because that actually delivers what customers want to their home, even on a mobile device. QV: Are you going to be using your own cables, then? Grahame: Yes we are. QV: That'll make a huge difference... Grahame: Yes, a huge difference. It's unlikely that we are going to use a fixed product, that's not what we are actually competing with. We want to provide high speed broadband and cable delivered to your home so that you could be making a Skype call using wifi and possibly cellular but providing it via cable. Now that might be to every home, it might be to various businesses, that'll all depend on how we can roll out over time, but what we are looking at is bringing the speed of the solution up faster and faster. Even a cable solution at fixed speed helps drive faster mobile. So I think this differentiation between fixed and mobile in the next five years is going to disappear. You know, is wifi a fixed solution or a mobile solution, that's an interesting question - if you buy the licence it says wifi is a fixed solution, but I am not so sure. QV: There are people coming into Qatar all the time, and having to make a choice of telephone providers. What can you offer them Qtel can't? Grahame: What we want to stand for is giving the people choice, innovating and doing things differently and being the customer's champion, so giving people the fair deal, and on that basis not trying to pull tricks and things around people but give them access, open ability and very good value. I think we are proving that by what we have done so far, with our international calls which are really targeting the people who are coming. I can give you an example of what we have done. At the moment we are providing a promotion on mobile internet and it is available to people whether they are using pre-paid or red, which is our post paid mobile. "I hear so many times about people getting their Qtel bill, and getting an amazing number and trying to work out how that happened." Qtel is responding and doing things on their mobile internet but only to their account customers, not to anyone who is using pre-paid. Talking about international rates, Qtel are also making offers but only to people in certain locations and certain types of customers. With Vodafone you can be guaranteed that you can get the best value and you are not going to get surprises on your bill which looks a lot higher than you were expecting based on the advertised prices. You will pay what we say, and the deal will be fair, and the final thing will be that you can check your account at any time, you will never get a surprise when you get a bill. I hear so many times about people getting their Qtel bill, and getting an amazing number and trying to work out how that happened. And ours can be checked at any time, and in real time. |

Here's a simple sandwich idea from FamilyFun magazine. All you need is a flower shaped cookie cutter to cut out two shapes out of bread. Then they suggest using a water bottle cap to cut out a circle out of the center of the flower. Spread on the peanut butter and then the jam and pop on the top, and you have a super simple, but cute sandwich! Different types of bread and jelly would make for a whole bouquet of floral sandwiches, for extra fun.

This is a discussion on Somebody stop me! within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; the smith...
Smith and Wesson
Just on reputation for reliability and durability, alone, I'd say: S&W. Though, either would make an effective choice. After an action job by a competent gunsmith, either would serve well.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: The Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
Buy the smith and don't look back!
S&W, no question.
While I don't think you can do wrong by purchasing a Taurus snubbie (heck, I own one in 9mm), given a choice I'd buy a S&W in a NY minute.

"Members of USPC have joined an organization dedicated to producing well-rounded horsemen and women and one that has produced many of the past and current Olympic and International riders.
USPC is unique because its educational programs place equal emphasis on the teaching of riding skills, horse-care fundamentals, and team participation with sportsmanship. From the moment youth join USPC until they graduate, they are part of a broad network of activities and educational programs that promote the health and safety of both horse and rider. USPC is dedicated to developing knowledgeable, competent, responsible, and caring horsemen." http://www.ponyclub.org/?page=PCProgram.
About the Santa Ynez Valley Pony Club
The Santa Ynez Valley Pony Club (SYVPC) is in central California and meets at Shepherd Ranch in Santa Ynez. Our Pony Club was founded in 1976. Our club focuses on dressage, cross country jumping and stadium jumping.
The Santa Ynez Valley Pony Club holds our meetings at Shepherd Ranch, an eventing facility that holds two USEA recognized Horse Trial Events each year. Because of our relationship with Shepherd Ranch, we are one of the few Pony Clubs in the United States that accepts donated horses which are available for lease by members who are unable to own a horse or pony. Members are required to either own or lease a horse, because Pony Club is based on caring for your own individual horse or pony in addition to riding lessons. Members (Ages 6-24 yrs) meet twice a month, year round for group lessons and horse management.
Our program stresses individual effort and self-sufficiency, as well as encouraging teamwork among the members. We teach each member the skills to take complete responsibility for their horse's health, training, and care. Riders are rated, based on their level of riding abilities and knowledge.
We strive to bring this education to all members at the most reasonable costs possible, and engage all our members in fund raising tasks to support the horses, as well as the facilities to house and train them. Funds are raised through annual dues, an annual Horse Show, Jump Sponsorship, Sale of Horses, Advertising, and two 3-Day Events held at Shepherd Ranch, as well as private donations. All members and their parents are required to contribute volunteer hours. The success of the club is due to the tremendous volunteer effort required from members and their families to run the organization.

11 Shouts - 117,663 Scrobbles
Sometimes plans can be overrated. Sure they can help focus a group toward a common goal, but overdo it and you can end up with an album that sounds and feels more like a corporate quarterly report than art. When The Orange Peels embarked on recording sessions for their fifth album, Sun Moon (Minty Fresh/Mystery Lawn Music), the band really didn't have a direction in mind. Afterall, they'd already conquered the indiepop, powerpop and West-Coast rock genres with their critically acclaimed back-catalog, and they didn't want to fall into the old trap of trying to repeat past successes.

The sys admin's daily grind – Raspberry Pi
Easy as Pi
It's probably not a coincidence that a number of people want to write about the muchlauded Raspberry Pi single-board computer, and our regular columnist Charly isn't going to blow raspberries.
The Raspberry Pi [1] grew on a vine sponsored by a British foundation. The intent was to create a low-budget, single-board computer to reduce the cost of computer science lessons at schools. The inventor estimated that a low four-figure number of Raspberries would be needed to break even, but this was way off the mark – the demand is huge. For around US$ 35 (UK£ 22, EUR 25) plus taxes, shipping, and handling, consumers receive an ARM minicomputer with 256MB of RAM – if you can get one that is. I waited more than three months for my Raspberry (Figure 1), and I was lucky – I'm told that pre-orders are well into the millions.

Alvar Aalto
Alvar Aalto
Second Nature
27.09.2014 – 01.03.2015
Vitra Design Museum
The architect and designer Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) was one of the most important proponents of organic design in the twentieth century. His architecture continues to captivate with its natural materials and sculptural, curved forms. For the Paimio Sanatorium, Aalto designed the first wooden cantilevered chair in 1932 while his Savoy Vase (1936) remains a quintessential symbol of Finnish design. The exhibition provides comprehensive insights into Aalto's oeuvre, presenting his most significant buildings, furniture and lighting designs and exploring the inspirations that shaped his work. Key themes are Aalto's dialogue with important artists such as Hans Arp, Alexander Calder and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, his extensive international collaborations and activities, his investigations of rational architecture as well as his constant concern for the human factor in design.

If Fashion Week's runways are any indication, you'll be seeing a lot of fur on the streets this fall. Fur was everywhere — from Marc Jacobs, to Carven to Christopher Kane and more — and you're bound to see lots more as the temperature goes down. Personally? I'm not huge fur fans (I mean, I'm vegan, after all). It's horribly expensive and it involves killing animals. So if you like the look of fur, but don't like the moral and wallet price, try faux fur. We've found nine pieces featuring faux fur that we think you'll love as much as we do.

Scottsdale doctors are divided over a therapy touted by some as a "natural alternative" to hormone replacement therapy.
Local obstetricians and gynecologists are using biologically identical hormone replacement therapy to treat hormone imbalances and nutrient deficiencies in women and men.
Treatments include using creams of progesterone derived from yams and estrogen taken from soy and natural hormone "pellets" inserted beneath the skin.
When the National Institutes of Health halted a major study of women on hormone replacement therapy in 2002, millions of women nationwide had to decide whether to continue the therapy. Like Sandy Carlson, 61, they weren't sure whether the significant health risks — increased risk for heart disease, stroke and breast cancer — were worth the benefit of therapy.
Before the study, Carlson used Prempro, a synthetic form of estrogen and progesterone, for 14 years.
"I tried to go off the synthetic hormones twice, but I experienced hot flashes," said Carlson, a Phoenix resident, formerly of Scottsdale.
Carlson first heard about biologically identical hormone replacement therapy through a television interview with actress Suzanne Somers on her book "The Sexy Years." Carlson sought help from Dr. Laurence Webster, founder of Innerfusion Health Clinic in Scottsdale, who offers plantderived hormone creams, and plans to soon provide testosterone and estrogen implants to clients.
Webster will give a free seminar today in Scottsdale, with pharmacist Terri Weisenbach of College Pharmacy, a Colorado compounding pharmacy.
Webster and Weisenbach said that biologically identical hormones more closely resemble hormones found in the human body than synthetic hormones used in hormone replacement therapy. For example, Premarin, a form of estrogen used in hormone replacement therapy, is derived from horse urine and contains 20 kinds of equine estrogen, none of which is identical to that of a woman, Weisenbach said. Estrogen derived from soy is "molecularly and functionally the same" as estrogen found in the female body, Weisenbach said.
Scottsdale doctor Gino Tutera developed and patented a method of biologically identical hormone replacement called "Sotto Pelle" in 1992 at his Palm Desert, Calif., clinic. The therapy uses small implants of estradiol and testosterone that are inserted under the skin to treat menstrual migraine headaches, postpartum depression and testosterone deficiency.
Other physicians said they believe biologically identical hormones have not been sufficiently tested. Dr. Ingrid Haas, a Scottsdale gynecologist, said she has used biologically identical hormone replacement for 15 to 20 years. Yet if her patients choose the therapy, Haas reminds them that "these are still hormones," and "they've never been studied as to their risk-benefit ratio," she said.
Scottsdale obstetrician and gynecologist John Harpenau said he is cautious of biologically identical hormone replacement because there are no in-depth studies, such as double-blinded, randomized, controlled studies.
"That is the gold standard in researching any type of medical problem or medicines," he said.
Upcoming seminars
"Menopause," free educational seminar by Dr. Laurence Webster of Innerfusion Health Clinic and pharmacist Terri Weisenbach of College Pharmacy: 7 p.m. today at the ACC Banquet Facility, 8849 E. Cholla St., Scottsdale. Information or reservations: (800) 888-9358, Ext. 133. "Hot Flashes, Hormones and Natural HRT," free seminar by Dr. Susan Kaib of Kronos Optimal Health Centre: 6 p.m. Aug. 19 at Kronos Optimal Health Centre, 15211 N. Kierland Blvd., Suite 200, Phoenix.

Old PCs don't die, and they don't fade away, either. The average PC will run almost forever, and the harmful chemicals inside it will survive in your local landfill for even longer.
How many long-lived-but-obsolete computers is your company moving around among staffers? There's definitely a point of diminishing returns in holding on to PCs past their prime, as well as hidden costs in just about any disposal method you choose. In fact, in some cases, it may cost you more to move PCs down the corporate ladder than it would to just purchase cheap new machines every few years. But either way, sooner or later, you'll have to get rid of old PCs. So how do you do it?
Don't think you can just toss them in the dumpster-remember those dangerous chemicals. And sure, selling them to employees or a PC broker or giving them to charity are all viable options, but they all have costs attached-many of which may surprise you. It's a good idea to have an exit strategy for your old hardware-and it should be in place long before the intrinsic value of your PCs hits zero.
Complete depreciation is often here before you know it, but there's good news in that respect: After years of decline, PC life expectancies are in an upturn, says IDC analyst Alan Promisel. The average middle-of-the-road PC now has a useful life of about three years; a high-end desktop, about four years. What's changed is that Microsoft has slowed down the spin on the Windows upgrade wheel, and the whole software industry has followed suit, cutting back the rate at which incompatibilities occur.
Longer software lifecycles mean you don't need to buy new hardware as often. In fact, you can probably squeeze an additional six months or so out of your company's desktops. But be careful: Nurse an old PC along for too long, and productivity suffers-for low-level staffers as well as managers. Worker efficiency declines along with equipment efficiency, so when software takes longer to load, screens take longer to redraw and incompatibilities start to occur, memory upgrades need to be deployed.

Man accused of beating step-father to death during argument at home in St. Martinville
POSTED: Thursday, July 4, 2013 - 2:00pm
UPDATED: Thursday, July 4, 2013 - 2:04pm
ST. MARTINVILLE, LA (NBC33) — A man was arrested last night after he allegedly murdered his step-father during a domestic dispute.
The St. Martin Parish Sheriff's Office was called to the home on Eunice Road in St. Martinville on Tuesday, July 3. When they arrived, they found the victim, Sam Guidry, 56, lying in a pool of blood inside the home.
Guidry was transported to a local hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Investigators learned that Guidry's step-son, Clyde Akers, IV, 30, was responsible for the injuries. We're told the two were involved in a physical fight, and all the injuries sustained were due to the blows landed.
Akers was arrested and charged with Manslaughter. He was booked into the St. Martin Parish Correctional Center.

The Memphis Grizzlies found the going a bit easier Friday night at home against the Brooklyn Nets, posting a decisive 101-77 win.
Despite the Nets coming in among the Eastern Conference's best teams at 26-17, they had no defensive answers for the Grizzlies, who scored 67 points in the first half, and had a 23-point halftime lead (67-44).
It was also the second consecutive 100-point game for Memphis, and 13th straight they've won when hitting that figure. The win marked center Marc Gasol's best game of the New Year. He had been in single digits almost every game recently, and gotten fewer shots as teams were constantly double-teaming the low post to reduce both his and Zach Randolph's effectiveness.
But the Nets decided to play Gasol straight up with their own seven-foot center Brook Lopez. As a result, for a change the lane wasn't congested, and Gasol was able to operate freely. He sometimes spun away for fallaway jumpers. Other times, he would swing into the middle for a hook or short shot. Gasol took 15 shots and made 10 of them, scoring 20 points to lead seven Grizzlies in double figures.
Equally effective was point guard Mike Conley, who outplayed Brooklyn's Deron Williams. Conley hit two of three from three-point territory and was six of seven overall, scoring 14 points. Zach Randolph had 12 points (six of 13), celebrating being named this week to the Western Confeence All-Star team. Randolph narrowly missed another double-double as both he and Gasol had nine rebounds, helping the Grizzlies out-rebound the Nets 55-44. The third member of the Memphis frontline Rudy Gay had 11 points.
The Grizzlies' bench also played a key role, with guard Jerod Bayless chipping in with eight assists. The Grizzlies had 25 assists to 16 for the Nets. It was the Grizzlies fourth victory in the past five games and improved their record to 28-14. It also gave them another game lead over fifth-place Golden State, who were defeated at Chicago 103-87.
The Grizzlies end their homestand Sunday against the New Orleans Hornets, a team that's reeling. The Hornets are last in the Western Conference's Southwest Division at 14-29. Memphis then hits the road for games against Philadelphia Monday and Oklahoma City Thursday.

This product has been discontinued
I have this in Natural Light, and I think it's just eh. I wanted it to be a good cheek highlighter, but it's hardly noticeable. I should probably try a darker shade, but I dont want it to be too obvious, which is why I chose Natural Light in the first place. And I had expected it to be pinkish, but instead it's sort of yellowish. Make sure you just press on the pump lightly - a little goes a long way. and I do not think the scent is that bad, but it is pretty strong.
Terrible horrible smell. I can't describe. I hate the look it give me. Why would Revlon come up with this in the market? Not light enough to use in daytime even if i choose the lightest color but the shimmery is just too much to take. Night time i look oily instead of glowing. Throw it out of my window! Never repurchase.
It's a good drugstore product comparative to more high end department store brands but it's not perfect. The lotion is pretty thick and it doesn't come in enough variety of shades. I have Neutral Light and it does look a bit yellowish on me, but what I do is apply it on top of face cream all over my face with a wet makeup sponge, and then use my Bare Minerals foundation on top and it does give my face a nice glow without looking greasy. You can also blend it into liquid foundation if you use that, or mix it with your face moisturizer. It's a bit hard to blend on it's own to get an even application, but mixed with other products it works really well. I'm not sure if I would repurchase, I may buy the MAC Strobe cream next instead which I hear is very similar.
This was too thick for me and it didn't have the best smell. On me it just looked greasy. Won't purchase again.
If this was given to me for free I would use it again, but I would not repurchase. Its a super thick 'illuminator' that has the same heavy smell as Revlons Illuminating Foundation. I have it in 'Bare Light' and it doesn't deposit any colour onto my face, just this tacky residue. You have to use this very sparingly or your face will look like you just stuck it in a vat of oil. Maybe it's just me, but I found that when I apply this to my cheek bones over top of foundation, it seems to 'pull' the foundation off.
This product is ok, I have in in Warm Light. You have to be very careful at the amount of product you use, and the packaging of this doesn't make it very easy. I find it to be a bit cumbersome.
It's my fault. I never seem to learn my lesson with Revlon products. Revlon products aren't meant for my face. The colors look great on the package but once it hits my face, my skin turns orange or darker. And I'm talking about all revlon face cosmetics. The scent of this lotion is great. But I think it's a major mistake putting it all over my face because I looked like a greaseball! It's kind of expensive and apparently no va-va-voom effect on me. I should've bought another product. My regrets.
this product is just ok. i have this in the pump in the lightest shade (natural light), but it isn't light enough. i feel for illuminators to really illuminate they have to exactly match or be just a tad lighter, otherwise you look flushed.
i don't hate it, sometimes i actually use it, but i would prefer to have my 14.00 bucks back than use this up.
continued >>
I love this product. HG for me.
Pros: gives your skin a nice bright look so you look dewy, youthfull and rested.
Con: can't really tell how much product is left because of the packaging.
I have 2 of these and tried all the colours. Warm Light and Pink Light. I have repurchased Pink Light twice and am close to repurchasing the warm light.
Warm light looks great in the spring and almost gives a tanned/bronze look. Pink Light I use mainly in the winter but its also great in the summer. I used this on my cheeks and apply with my finger. I also dab some on my temples and I also put a litle on my lips with the left over product (don't know if you are allowed to but it looks great on my lips). I have also tried peach light (sample) (which looks horrible on me and my friends and sisters so I don't recommend it) and natural light which was too pale for me. My sister has Golden Light as she has a darker complexion then me and it gives her a great tan.
Oh I also use it on my eyelids sometimes as a makeup primer and it gives a nice highlight to the brow and helps eyeshadows stay on like a primer would.
The product can be a little pricey so wait for a sale or promotion (once I got it was a free tube of l/g and mascara).
Overall, its a great multiuse product for me (eyes, lips, cheeks,) and I would recommend it to anyone.
I have this in Natural Light. I apply a tiny amount of this to the top of my cheeks, just above where I've applied my blusher, and it really highlights my cheekbones beautifully and gives my complexion a glowing, healthy appearance. I have also tried applying it over other areas of my face, or mixed with moisturiser, but it has only made my face look 'greasy'.
Like other reviewers, I hate the tube design. It is so easy to squirt out more than you need at a time. Also it's rather 'bulky' and basically not very nice to use. However, you receive loads of lotion in each tube, so is good value for money, and will last for ages.

If regular radio was smart, they'd add this into rotation. It's a fucking pop song! We love Benny; he's a vet. We're not sure how many artists could pull something like this off. And in keeping it all the way real, it's really not that far off from what Avicii is doing with "Wake Me Up," but you know, his name's Avicii. You can grab "Dance the Pain Away" right now on Ultra.
