About Me Professional Cleaner
Comments about Panasonic Silver Steam/Dry Iron:
This iron looks ergonomic and under-intuitive, but it is not: it does not glide across fabrics any smoother than less-expensive irons and did not out-perform Black Decker D2020/D2030 and any of the Rowenta Series of Irons (especially the Advancer line).

About Me Meticulous Cleaner
Used for quick clothing touch-ups as well as pressing sewing projects. Lapsed time auto shut-off is helpful. A bit heavier than my previous iron, but easy to adapt to.
lots of steam and easy to use
By Jan
from Maine
I bought two other irons before I found this little gem. While I have only had it a short time, I have been very pleased. It puts out a really good amount of steam which makes ironing fast and efficient. The sole plate design is a bit odd looking, but it glides easily and works well for buttons and collars. I wish the water reservoir was a bit bigger, but other than that - it is perfect.

Chewy.com graciously provided me with a gift code to do a little shopping for Sugar, our Westie.

Shopping at Chewy.com was extremely easy. Even shopping the large selection of products, we were still able to find the perfect items and were able to narrow the selection down just by selecting an option! In my opinion, there is nothing worse than trying to shop a website that doesn't have options for narrowing down your choices. Thank goodness Chewy.com makes it so easy!

New Zealand collapse puts SA on top
A spectacular collapse in the final session of the day saw New Zealand being bowled out for 185 in their first innings on Day 1 of the 2nd Test at Seddon Park in Hamilton on Thursday.
South Africa were on 27/2 in reply at Stumps.
New Zealand were at 94/2 in the second session after being put in to bat first when rain interrupted play, shaving nearly 18 overs off the day's play. Upon resumption they slid from 133/2 to 133/7 as former RCBian Dale Steyn and Vernon Philander ran riot in four chaotic overs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Daniel Vettori was a part of the collapse, bowled for 0 by Philander. Brendon McCullum (61) and another former RCBian Ross Taylor (44) took the Kiwis to 133/2 while Kruger van Wyk (21) and Mark Gillespie (27) helped them reach 185 from 133/7.
van Wyk and Gillespie went for broke in the partnership for the 8th wicket and the ploy worked, the duo adding 43 in just 40 balls.
SA trudged to 27/2 in 11 overs at Stumps, losing skipper Graeme Smith (13) and nightwatchman Steyn (4), both caught behind by van Wyk off Chris Martin while Alviro Peterson (8*) and Hashim Amla (2*) stayed unbeaten.

Buy Kurt Cobain's T-Shirts!
Kurt Cobain was known for his slacker fashion style that brought disheveled flannel, ragged jeans, and thrift store T-shirts to the forefront of '90s couture.
To preserve this legacy, Rock'n'roll T-shirt company WornFree has reproduced some of his most renowned T-shirts, including the black "Grunge is Dead" print and the white "Hi, How Are You?" illustration by Daniel Johnson.
Click here to see the site's collection of Cobain-approved T-shirts. Aside from listening to Nirvana's complete catalogue, they're a fitting (pun intended, sorry) way to memorialize Cobain, who would have turned 42 this Friday, February 20.

Monaco is always a hotbed on the social side and 2010 was no exception after luminaries such as Sir Jackie and Lady Helen Stewart, and Nigel and Rosanne Mansell (supporting son Greg who was racing in World Series by Renault) attended a Mumm/Total champagne reception at lHermitage on Thursday to celebrate the 60th birthday of the FIA Formula One World Championship.
That was followed by Vijay Mallyas now traditional pre-Monaco party onboard his super yacht The Indian Empress, which attracted a plethora of VIP guests, including former Renault team boss Flavio Briatore and FOM CEO Bernie Ecclestone, who commented: I have never missed out on any of Vijays Monaco events. It's always a great evening and a relaxed get together of Formula One - thanks to Vijay.
Earlier in the week, the HRT team spent Wednesday in the company of the 131-strong Monaco Fire Brigade as part of their fitness training for the Monte Carlo race. Drivers Karun Chandhok, Bruno Senna, and testers Christian Klien and Sakon Yamamoto met with Monaco fire brigade commandant Varo and his men, climbing long ladders, learning the mechanics of fire trucks, and dealing with fire and smoke fighting.
McLaren team mates Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton brought some Monaco glitz to their cars with individually crafted Steinmetz diamond crests on their steering wheels. The crests celebrate the respective world championship successes of Button in 2009 and Hamilton in 2008. Both drivers also showed off special helmets featuring similar Steinmetz crests.
Other famous sporting faces in the Monaco paddock included Keke Rosberg, Rene Arnoux, Jean Todt, Flavio Briatore, Stephane Sarrazin, Sebastien Loeb, Alex Wurz, Pedro Lamy, Tom Walkinshaw, Randy de Puniet, Boris Becker and Manchester City and Republic of Ireland goalkeeper Shay Given.
Showbiz visitors included Jennifer Lopez, Mick Jagger, Paris Hilton, Pharrell Williams, Michael Douglas, Liz Hurley and David Furnish, many of who attended Friday evenings Amber Lounge Fashion Show to raise money for the Elton John Aids Foundation. Lotuss Heikki Kovalainen was among the biggest bidders in the charity auction, while Lewis Hamilton, Adrian Sutil, Jaime Alguersuari, Tonio Liuzzi and Nico Rosberg were among the F1 drivers-turned-models for the night. Elsewhere Virgin had a rather apt guest for Monaco, World of Poker winner Chris Ferguson.
On the track, the wins in GP2 went to Sergio Perez for Barwa Addax on Friday and Jerome dAmbrosio for DAMS on Saturday. The Mexican now leads the championship from Pastor Maldonado and Dany Clos.

New Orleans Louisiana |
New Orleans BlogsPlease disregard the original text of the site below, and please pray for the unfortunate victims of this tragedy. Previous text of site: There is so much to see and do in New Orleans, it is easy to get excited about the tourist activities and forget about the actual city where people live, work, and raise families, go to school, worship, and otherwise live. So, to experience this fun-filled city, you must go beyond the usual tourist haunts and linger here and there among the residents, many of whose families go back generations and others who were once merely visitors who became "never lefts" as they are called. Orleanians love where they would and would not live anywhere else. They are a laid-back bunch and not a lot shakes them up. After all, they live in a city noted for having a population of the "living dead" where the biggest party in the world takes place every year. The heart of New Orleans is the French Quarter, or Vieux Carre. This is technically a 6-by-12-block rectangle along the Mississippi River where the city was originally settled by the French in 1718. This is where the Creoles, served by African slaves, developed one of the most sophisticated styles of living in North America. Then, in 1803, the Louisiana Purchase was signed. At that time, Americans pretty much took over and by the 1860s and the Civil War, they had put an end to antebellum New Orleans. TThe French Quarter went through decades of neglect and it is only since the mid-20th century that the buildings have been restored. Today, the Quarter is divided into upper and lower sections, with Jackson Square at the center. The Upper French Quarter includes Jackson Square, the riverfront, and the blocks leading to Canal Street. This is where you will find the most visited and photographed spots in New Orleans. However, if you would like to visit some of those lesser-known areas of the Quarter where Orleanians live and work and shop, then head down to the Lower French Quarter. You will find the French Market as well as some little known and unnamed sections that are well worth the effort and will leaving you feeling you have really gotten to know New Orleans. |

"In the past year, her fashion has changed for the better," Yalof Schwartz says of the best-actress nominee for her portrayal of Julia Child in Julie & Julia.

Project Runway alum Chris March designed the dress, which Streep accessorized with a silver mesh Swarovski clutch.

What's New
Preparations for the next version of iOS.App Description
iSatFat is one of 9 iNutrient apps based on the USDA National Nutrient Database. The others include:➤ iCarbs (Carbohydrates)
➤ iCholesterol (Dietary Cholesterol)
➤ iFiber (Fiber)
➤ iKals (Calories)
➤ iProteins (Proteins)
➤ iSodium (Sodium)
➤ iSugars (Sugars)
➤ Vitamin K (Vitamins K1, K1D & K2)
As of version 3.0 this app allows users to record their intake of the nutrient (iOS > 4.2.1 required). The information is maintained for one year and is presented in reverse chronological order grouped by day, so the latest data is presented first in the list. Editing allows for: 1) changing the number of servings; 2) changing the date; and 3) deleting records.
For those working towards healthy eating, knowing the amount of saturated fat in the foods available for consumption can be extremely helpful.
The iSatFat app provides information about foods and how they are rated for content of saturated fat. This is provided as a means to assist in deciding which foods to eat. The food servings are rated from EXTREMELY LOW in fiber all the way up to EXTREMELY HIGH. The following colors help readily identify which is which:
➤ Black = Rated EXTREMELY HIGH in Saturated Fat (10.001 - 33.000 g)
➤ Dark Red = Rated VERY HIGH in Saturated Fat (5.001 - 10.000 g)
➤ Red = Rated HIGH in Saturated Fat (3.001 - 5.000 g)
➤ Orange = Rated MODERATELY HIGH in Saturated Fat (1.001 - 3.000 g)
➤ Yellow = Rated MODERATE in Saturated Fat (0.501 - 1.000 g)
➤ Light Green = Rated MODERATELY LOW in Saturated Fat (0.101 - 0.500 g)
➤ Green = Rated LOW in Saturated Fat (0.011 - 0.100 g)
➤ Cyan = Rated VERY LOW in Saturated Fat (0.001 - 0.010 g)
➤ White = Rated EXTREMELY LOW in Saturated Fat (0.000 g)
Essentially, the cooler the color, the lower the amount of Saturated Fat, with white being the coolest color and black being the hottest (think burnt).
There are eight tables listing food servings:
➤ All Foods
➤ Fast Foods
➤ Fruits & Vegetables
➤ Meat, Fish & Shellfish
➤ Dairy & Egg
➤ Cereal Grains & Pasta
➤ Sweets
➤ Snacks
The All Foods list allows you to search by any word or partial word from all the Food Titles.
Selecting a food in any of the tables will display pertinent information about the selected food serving:
➤ Food Title
➤ Weight (in grams)
➤ Common Measure (serving size for weight)
➤ Saturated Fat Content (in grams)
➤ Calories
➤ Percentage of Saturated Fat by Weight (if at least 1%)
➤ USDA Description
➤ USDA Food Group
➤ USDA Nutrient Database Number
Information is derived from the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference: Fatty acids, total saturated Content of Selected Foods per Common Measure. There are currently over 1,100 different foods included, searchable using more than 2,500 names (some foods are known by different names or how they are prepared, e.g., "Egg, Scrambled" and "Scrambled Egg").

Meet the Team
Adrianna – Doctor's Assistant
I work alongside Dr. Nordhus during procedures and help make sure patients are comfortable during treatment. I love talking to patients. We get to learn so much about them while they are in our office, and Dr. Nordhus truly cares about each and every one as more than just patients. He treats them as individuals. You can feel how much he believes in helping them create beautiful smiles.
My husband, Justin, and I have five children: Jayden, Payton, Preston, Braylon, and Braxon. We also have two black labs who keep our home from ever being quiet. I spend most of my time with my children and their activities, but I love traveling and am also a massage therapist.
Teresa – Patient Coordinator
As the patient coordinator, I walk patients through every step of treatment, from beginning to end, and help them choose the best plan for their unique needs. It is so rewarding to help patients overcome their fears of the dentist, and they get so excited to come back once they see how much fun we have in our office. I feel like I have known some of our patients my whole life!
I am the mother of an awesome young man, Gregory and Grammy to my favorite girl, Helen. I treasure every moment I get to spend with them. I love spending time outdoors and I am a big fan of warm sunny days.
Paige – Dental Assistant
I have been assisting with dental procedures for over 20 years and love the positive changes our patients have received. The best part of my day is visiting with our wonderful patients. They always have interesting and exciting stories to share. They help us have fun each and every day. It is rewarding to work with such great people to create happy smiles.
I have a daughter named Jordan who is newly married, so I am excited to welcome my new son-in-law into our family. In my free time, I enjoy baking and the outdoors, so you can find me boating, fishing, or riding motorcycles. I am also active in my church.
Julie – Dental Hygienist
As a dental hygienist, I perform cleanings and help educate patients on proper oral care and the health benefits a beautiful mouth. I really enjoy finding out our patients' interests and hobbies, especially children since they always want to talk to you. Dr. Nordhus is personable and fun with our patients and has an easy time getting them to open up.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Adam, and we have a beautiful baby girl, Madison. We also have two dogs named Doc and Mac. I like to be active, so I spend a lot of time wakeboarding, swimming, and working out. When I want to relax, I travel or go shopping.
Kim – Dental Hygienist
I work with patients during their cleanings and also instruct them on their treatment and oral care. My patients always have something to share and I love hearing about their travels, families, and hobbies. They feel like my own family. Dr. Nordhus is very down to earth and gets his patients to understand every aspect of their treatment.
My husband, Doug, and I have a very full house with seven children: Chelsee, Sydnee, Levi, Kadisee, Ellee, Lainee, and Owen. We also have a grandson named Tristen. With so many children in our family, I spend a lot of time following their activities in softball, wrestling, and football. They know how to keep me busy!
Laurie – Treatment Coordinator
I work with patients from day one of treatment to their very last visit with us. It is my job to guide you through your treatment and all of the steps to a beautiful smile and healthier you. I believe in treating patients like family, which is why I work hard to make them comfortable and at home in our office.
I am married to my best friend, Tom, and we have a four-legged daughter, Abbey, who is a miniature pinscher. I also have 11 nieces and nephews. In my spare time, I like to take day trips, go to dog parks with Abbey, sous-chef to Tom, and grill with friends.
Marla – Dental Hygienist
As a dental hygienist, I make our patients comfortable and teach them on the most effective ways to take care of their oral health. Dr. Nordhus is a fantastic leader and dentist who is great about using the latest technology. Our patients are in the best hands when they come to our office.
I have a wonderful son named Cale. I also have four hairy children: three dogs and a cat. I like to spend my leisure time drinking coffee with my sisters and watching my son play.

L.G Alexander, Essay And Letter Writing
Longman | January 1965 | ISBN: 0582523036 | Pages: 144 | File type: PDF | 5,2mb
This book provides the teacher and student with a wide variety of suitable material for essay work and letter writing,together with simple instructions on how to go about it. The subject-matter is so arranged that the students will be able to work systematically at the writing of English over a long period. The teacher, too, will have at his disposal a great number of exercises and topics so that he can keep a close check on the written work of his pupils. he first chapter presupposes that the student has covered the main difficulties in elementary grammar and has acquired a limited active vocabulary, without actually having had any experience in expressing himself in continuing prose. Two to three years should be spent on Part I which brings the student up to the level of the English Language paper of the Cambridge Lower Certificate in English Examination. A further two years should be devoted to Part II which goes well beyond the requirements of the Cambridge Proficiency in English Examination and should be found suitable for students doing advanced work in the writing of English as a foreign language.

The relationship between work-home conflict and domestic violence is examined using data from 295 adults, who worked full time and were in serious relationships. Job satisfaction, gender, gender role attitudes, type of employment, and socioeconomic status were examined as predictors of work-family conflict. Backward stepwise regression analysis revealed that job satisfaction was the only predictor of work-home conflict. Regression analyses were again conducted to determine the moderating effects of general well-being, alcohol use, family of origin violence witnessed or experienced, communication skills, and social support on the relationship between work-home conflict and domestic violence. Both family of origin violence witnessed and personally experienced were revealed as moderators of this relationship. The remaining potential moderators were submitted to regression analyses to determine if they might, instead, be mediators. These analyses revealed that negative communication skills and social support mediated the relationship between work-home conflict and domestic violence.

Holiday in France
Following a midlife wake-up call, author Eloisa James packs her family off to the most romantic place in the world
By Eloisa James
Special Offers
In December 2007, my mother died of cancer. Two weeks later, I was diagnosed with the same disease. I was quite sure about what would happen next. I immediately started anticipating the epiphany when I would be struck by the acute beauty of life. I would see joy in my children's eyes (rather than stark rebellion), eschew caffeine and simply be, preferably while doing yoga in front of a sunset. My better, less irritable self would come out of hiding, and I would stop wasting time at the computer and sniping at my husband. I had cancer...but the good news was that I would learn to live in the moment.
Or perhaps not. I found a calm, quiet oncologist who recommended radiation and hormone treatment but also noted the salient fact that my breast was the culprit. This was a part of my body that I could live without. In rapid order, I lost that breast. And I discovered that rather than living my life in the moment, I wanted to live someone else's life specifically that of a person who lived in Paris.
Being a professor has many drawbacks (such as a minuscule salary), but having no time off is not one of them. My husband and I could each take a sabbatical year; we simply needed to renew our passports. Alessandro teaches Italian literature and grew up in an apartment in the center of Florence. Once he found that there was an Italian school in Paris that our bilingual children could attend, I bought new drapes for the windows of our suburban house and filled the empty spots in the denuded bookshelves with pink vases. The house sold in five days, during the worst real estate market in decades. Our cars were last to go.
Luca and Anna, the younger members of our family, were less than enthralled at the prospect of decamping to France. They were particularly struck by the fact that, of all of us, only Alessandro was fluent. (Although they had received good grades for three years in French class, they were right: They couldn't speak the language.) I informed my disbelieving children that the inability to understand our neighbors would make their experience more gripping. Threatened with insubordination, I pointed out that I, too, had loathed my parents at their age; instigating fear and mutiny in one's offspring is a parental duty.
Friends were kissed goodbye, Facebooking promises were made, toys were packed. Large amounts of logo-emblazoned clothing were purchased, since a savvy friend promised us that a prominent display of American brands would ensure popularity in the Leonardo da Vinci School.
Paris awaited: a whole year with no teaching and no departmental responsibilities just la vie Parisienne.

Kucinich: Demand that Congress Issue Subpoenas for Continuity of Government Plans
Posted By admin On July 13, 2008 @ 5:21 am In Commentary | Comments Disabled
George Washington's Blog [1]
Sunday, July 13, 2008
Kucinich said Congress has tried to find out whether COG plans implemented on 9/11 are still in effect, and what those plans are, but the White House has stonewalled. He suggests that Americans demand that congress issue subpoenas to determine whether COG plans are currently in effect, and to find out what's in the documents. This is the only way we'll find out.
John Conyers has been issuing subpoenas on other issues, which may be important. However, what could be more important for Congress than determining whether or not the Constitution is still the controlling document for our country? What could be more important for Congress than determining whether COG planning documents strip Congress of its power, and give sole power to the executive branch?
(Article continues below)
Demand that congress issue subpoenas and — more importantly — hold everyone subpoenaed person — including Buch, Cheney, Mukasey, Chertoff, etc. — in contempt (and throw them in jail!) if they don't respond.

Guidance to US Clinicians Regarding New WHO Polio Vaccination Requirements for Travel by Residents of and Long-term Visitors to Countries with Active Polio Transmission
On 5 May 2014, the Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) accepted the recommendations of an Emergency Committee, declaring the international spread of polio to be a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) under the authority of the International Health Regulations (IHR) (2005) and issued vaccination requirements for travelers in order to prevent further spread of the disease. IHR is an international agreement among countries to prevent, protect or control the international spread of disease. All countries have agreed to be bound by recommended activities under IHR.
The "temporary recommendations" in response to this PHEIC, the second ever to be issued under IHR, will be reviewed and possibly revised by WHO's Emergency Committee in three months. The burden for enforcement of the polio vaccination requirements under this PHEIC declaration lies with polio-affected countries (termed "polio-infected" by WHO). At this time, the United States government is not expected to implement requirements for entry into the United States.
U.S. clinicians should be aware of possible new vaccination requirements for patients planning travel for greater than four weeks to countries with ongoing poliovirus transmission. The May 5 WHO statement names 10 such countries, three designated as "exporting wild poliovirus" (Cameroon, Pakistan and Syria [Syrian Arab Republic]) that should "ensure" recent (4 to 52 weeks before travel) polio boosters among all departing residents and long-term travelers (of more than 4 weeks), and an additional seven countries "infected with wild poliovirus" (Afghanistan, Equatorial Guinea, Ethiopia, Iraq, Israel, Somalia and Nigeria) that should "encourage" recent polio vaccination boosters among residents and long-term travelers.
At this time, CDC is not aware of what specific steps will be taken by these 10 countries to comply with the PHEIC declaration. U.S. citizens who plan to travel to any of the polio infected countries should have documentation of a polio booster in their yellow International Certificate of Vaccination in order to avoid delays in transit.
Currently 10 countries have active transmission of wild poliovirus (WPV) that could spread to other countries through international travel. From January through April 2014, months normally considered the low-transmission season for polio, the virus already has been carried to three countries: from Pakistan to Afghanistan, from Syria to Iraq, and from Cameroon to Equatorial Guinea. WHO considers this an "extraordinary event" and a public health risk to other countries. If the current spread of WPV continues, cases could multiply considerably as the high-transmission season has already begun. The consequences of further international spread are particularly acute today given that several countries with complex humanitarian emergencies or other major challenges are bordering the infected countries.
Because of the substantial progress of the polio eradication initiative in 2012-2013, and in order to harmonize CDC recommendations with WHO recommendations, CDC now recommends an adult inactivated poliovirus (IPV) booster dose for travelers to countries with active WPV circulation. Countries are considered to have active WPV circulation if they have ongoing endemic circulation, active polio outbreaks, or environmental evidence of active WPV circulation. Travelers working in health care settings, refugee camps, or other humanitarian aid settings in these countries may be at particular risk.
Domestic clinicians should provide the following information to their patients planning international travel to countries experiencing polio outbreaks/active transmission:
CDC routinely recommends that anyone planning travel to a polio-affected country be fully vaccinated against polio and that, in addition, adults should receive a one-time booster dose of polio vaccine. Because of the recent PHEIC declaration, anyone staying in any of the polio-affected countries for more than four (4) weeks may be required to have a polio booster shot within the 4 weeks to twelve months prior to departure from that country. This booster should be documented in the yellow International Certificate of Vaccination in order to avoid delays in transit or forced vaccination in country. Either oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) or inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) may be used for this booster, however only IPV is currently available in the United States.
For more information:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) protects people's health and safety by preventing and controlling diseases and injuries; enhances health decisions by providing credible information on critical health issues; and promotes healthy living through strong partnerships with local, national, and international organizations.

BROOKSVILLE - Hernando County's unemployment rate was 8.5 percent in August, down from 9 percent in July, continuing a positive trend that began in March.
Out of a labor force of 63,575, there were 58,187 employed in August, according to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity.
"We have not had five months with an average (rate) this low since July 2008," said Dave Hamilton, operations manager for the Pasco-Hernando Workforce Board. "This has been a long recession for us."
The county's employment picture started improving this past March, when it weighed in at 8.3 percent. It's been hovering near that mark ever since.
And even though there has been a drop in the workforce, there has been an increase in employment. There were 173 more people employed in Hernando County in August than there were in July.
And, if one goes back a year, there are 2,400 more Hernando County residents employed than August 2012, when the unemployment rate was 10.9 percent.
Still, Hamilton said he hopes the mid-8 percent range is not the "new normal."
"For us to be healthy, it needs to go down at least another two points," he said. "Two points in Hernando County would mean that another 1,000 people who have employment here."
August represents the last month of summer employment. Hamilton said he looks forward to September's numbers to see how new school district hires affect the rate.
Florida's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 7 percent in August 2013, down 0.1 percentage point from a month earlier and down 1.6 percentage points from 8.6 percent a year ago.
The state's August rate was the lowest since September 2008 when it also was 7 percent. There were 656,000 jobless Floridians out of a labor force of 9,391,000.
The U.S. unemployment rate was 7.3 percent in August. Florida's unemployment rate was 0.3 percentage point lower than the U.S. rate and was below the national rate for the sixth consecutive month.
Gov. Rick Scott called the August statistics "great news for Florida families."
"This is evidence that our pro-growth and business friendly policies are working," Scott said in a press release.
v vIn related news, Property Appraiser John Emerson on Friday released a breakdown of Value Adjustment Board petitions filed for 2013. It shows the total number of petitions were 168, a 33 percent drop from 255 last year. Of the 168 petitions filed, 29 were by the property owner and the rest (83 percent) were by tax representatives.
By law, property owners can appeal the appraiser's numbers if they can prove an error was made as to the calculated value of their property.
In recent years, people have hired tax firms to represent them and do the workload.

I think god invented porn before he came up with men and then made us so he could blame it on someone else to the wife.
—John's theory, as we were throwing around ideas for a camera phone that does 360 panoramas, so that callers could get context on who they're calling
Naturally, this brainstorm session turned to pornography, as it has driven such technology in the past; the lack of pornography on Sony's Betamax was one of the contributing factors that helped JVC's VHS win the format war, driving Betamax into extinction. And more recently, Sony, having learned from their mistakes, won the current generation DVD format war with Blu-Ray against Microsoft's HD-DVD, as movie studio backing, pornography, and games are undoubtedly driving this too.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Chip Kelly is closer to taking his fast-paced offense to the NFL.
A person familiar with the negotiations said the Cleveland Browns are nearing a deal with Oregon's offensive mastermind to be their next coach.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Chip Kelly is closer to taking his fast-paced offense to the NFL.
A person familiar with the negotiations said the Cleveland Browns are nearing a deal with Oregon's offensive mastermind to be their next coach.
The Browns interviewed Kelly on Friday and the Ducks' coach also met with the Buffalo Bills in Arizona. Kelly has a scheduled interview with Philadelphia on Saturday. However, a person familiar with the interview said the Eagles are "heading in another direction" because Kelly is nearing a deal with Cleveland.
That person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team isn't discussing its negotiations publicly, said the Eagles planned to interview several other candidates regardless of any conversations with Kelly. The Eagles were granted permission Friday to interview Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians and Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley and plan to meet Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy on Sunday.
ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported late Friday night that the Browns and Kelly met for seven hours — five in negotiations with a two-hour break for dinner — and agreed to talk again Saturday night. Mortensen said Kelly said still intends to meet with the Eagles some time on Saturday. The Browns are "favored," Mortensen reported.
The Bills confirmed in an email they met with Kelly, but gave no indication of how long they spoke to him. The team also interviewed former Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith and Syracuse's Doug Marrone.
The Browns, who made their last playoff appearance 10 years ago on Saturday, have declined to comment on any interviews during their coaching search.
Following Oregon's win over Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl on Thursday night, the 49-year-old Kelly said he wanted to get the interview process over "quickly."
He came close to jumping to the pros last year but turned down an offer from Tampa Bay to return for his fourth season as head coach at Oregon, where he is 46-7. He has boosted the school's national profile — flashy uniforms helped — with a high-powered offense capable of turning any game into a track meet.
"It's more a fact-finding mission, finding out if it fits or doesn't fit," Kelly said after the Ducks beat No. 7 Kansas State 35-17. "I've been in one interview in my life for the National Football League, and that was a year ago. I don't really have any preconceived notions about it. I think that's what this deal is all about for me. It's not going to affect us in terms of we're not on the road (recruiting). I'll get an opportunity if people do call, see where they are.

We are holding a Meet and Greet on the Thursday evening before the convention ("Gallifrey Eve," if you like) at the same hotel. It is at 10pm PST on the 25th of February. It is late enough to allow many of people flying in on Thursday to check into the hotel and get some dinner beforehand. The Meet and Greet is an informal (leave the tux at home) gathering where you will have a chance to come by and say hi, meet the Doctor Who: Podshock hosts, correspondents, and regular contributors to the show. Learn more about our Meet and Greet here. If you plan on meeting up with us there, please RSVP here.
If you are a Podshock Supporting Subscriber and you are going to Gallifrey 21, please let us know if you haven't done so already. In addition to the Meet and Greet, we would like to plan something special to do with supporting subscribers at Gallifrey 21. What that might be, depends on how many will be able to join us. It is because of the support of supporting subscribers we are able to bring you the show and do these events. Please if you haven't done so yet, please consider supporting us by becoming a Podshock Supporting Subscriber. It doesn't cost much and it means so much to us.
