Is there No Limit to the Deviousness of the American Capitalist?
Damn those American companies who take foreign money! Damn them to the hottest regions of the infernal! When will their treachery cease?
In a different day and age, Jeff Hart would be the most famous American in our country right now. He would be honored at the White House. Schoolchildren would learn of his skill and heroism. But because Jeff Hart works in an industry under fire by the Obama administration, more people in Chile will celebrate this symbol of American greatness than in American itself.
Jeff Hart is a driller based in my home state of Colorado. The father of two has been drilling water wells in Afghanistan at U.S. Army bases. When the San Jose Mine in Chile collapsed in August, he flew to lend his renowned expertise to the rescue effort. As part of an amazing three-way race to the trapped miners, Hart drilled for 33 days straight and was first to reach the caved-in workers.
Did you see that? Not only does he take money from shadowy foreign concerns, but he's an enabler of George W. BushHitlerBurton's immoral war in Afghanistan.
In the words of a great American, true patriot Keith Olbermann, have you no shame, Sir?

Allergan Seeks to Sell Lap-Band and Obesity Unit By June
Allergan Inc. (AGN), the maker of the Botox wrinkle treatment, said it's committed to selling the company's obesity-treatment unit in the first half of 2013 after completing a review of the business.
The unit, dominated by the Lap-Band weight loss device, has been reclassified as a discontinued operation, resulting in an unspecified charge to write down assets to fair value, Irvine, California-based Allergan said in a statement today. Chief Executive Officer David Pyott said last month he wanted to sell the business by the end of the first quarter and that the unit has attracted interest, including from a private-equity company.
The obesity unit's sales tumbled 22 percent in the fourth quarter to $36.8 million, Allergan said today. The unit's annual revenue has plummeted from a peak of $296 million in 2009 because of questions about the risks from the Lap-Band and lawsuits stemming from surgeries that went awry. The obesity market once generated about a third of Allergan's U.S. sales.
"We are dynamically managing our portfolio to drive long- term sales growth," Pyott said in the statement.
The company said it can't estimate a range of the expected disposal loss stemming from the writedown, the company said. The Lap-Band is an adjustable silicon band that helps people lose weight by reducing the amount of food their stomachs can hold.
Allergan rose 1.6 percent to $106.70 at the close in New York. The shares have gained 24 percent in the past year.

Man Named "Stoner" Arrested for Running Grow House in Tampa Bay
Mr. Stoner |
Police in Clearwater, Florida have arrested Glenn H. Stoner after finding a small stash of pot plants growing in his home. Stoner claimed he smoked all of the pot cultivated by the mini-marijuana forest himself. A Stoner indeed.
Stoner was arrested on Tuesday after Clearwater Police obtained a permit to search his home. Along with the 19 plants they found growing equipment, an irrigation system, and fertilizer. Stoner has a roommate but told police that he smoked all the pot himself. All of it. Every last bud.
This is Stoner's second arrest on pot-related charges. He was busted in 2006 for possession and manufacture of the drug.
Police believe Stoner's operation was done solo. Though, we image if he had co-defendants their names would be something like Mary Jane Stems, Johnny S. Token, Tom "Hempy" Greenweed, and James Blunt (yes, probably that annoying singer bro).

Netflix has just pushed out an update to their iOS application that will please watchers of television shows via the service. The new post-play feature will cue and then begin the next episode in the season once the currently watched one ends. It's great news that a source of minor frustration has been put to rest, and the new goodies don't stop there.
More →
The Netflix app for iOS was recently updated to 4.0, which includes a few new features - namely, a brand new episode selector for iPad, and a redesigned audio and subtitle selector for both iPad and iPhone.
DIAL, an open standard form of wireless playback, is being given a rather large push by both Netflix and YouTube. Their hopes are that using an open standard will allow developers to solve second screen playback issues in a better way than Apple's AirPlay. In other words, it wouldn't be a proprietary solution and would be available to anyone who wants to implement the protocol.
One of the most requested features for Netflix for iPhone and iPad is the "Just for Kids" section that's available on most other platforms -- and now it's finally here on the iPad! Even better, you don't have to do anything to get it. Netflix pushed a backend update and now you should see a "Just for Kids" button at the top left of the screen next to the Browse button.
Netflix has updated with iPhone and iOS 6 support, so now you can enjoy your 16:9 content in a fully 16:9 screen as nature and Hollywood intended. There's also a new interface that lets browse titles, tap for information, and double tap to play. It's a good use of the taller/wider screen space, and a good improvement to the Netflix app in general.
Netflix for iPhone and iPad has been updated with an updated interface and varied improvements on playback, AV sync, and subtitle handling. The new interface isn't a complete overhaul, but very minor. In fact, what I notice most about the interface is that it's actually rather sluggish with horrible scrolling, a bit clunky, and you still can't edit or view your mailing queue or view or leave reviews.
Looking over the wreckage of ill-considered price hikes, ill-advised videos, and the ill-conceived Qwiskter spin-off, it's hard to reconcile that Netflix of the last tear with the savvy, disruptive, almost prescient upstart service that was a favorite of iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV users. Yet CNET's Greg Sandoval has done just that, and lays the blame cleanly at the top.
Netflix is now available in the UK, and that means it's now available for iPhone and iPad in the UK App Store (and Android too). One month of service will run you £5.99 which isn't too far off the US or Canadian prices.
Content is... content. It sounds like it's okay at launch but stuff will come, stuff will go, so if you see something you like, start watching it now.
It's a universal binary, so if you're in the UK and you try it out, let us know how it works for you.
AllThingsD reports that Netflix (and Blockbuster) will be required to wait twice as long, or a full 56 days after DVDs hit retail shelves, before offering Warner Brothers content under a new distribution agreement.
The move is part of Hollywood's ongoing campaign to bolster flagging DVD sales, and sources tell me the new deal is supposed to be announced at next week's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Warner Brothers executives have already talked publicly about extending the current window.

August's staff highlight – Adam Bennett, Client Account Manager
Selecting one of Just Search's diversely talented employees as a monthly staff highlight is a trying task. Although it has to be said, with an unwavering commitment, hard work and dedication, it wasn't going to be too long before the accolade was going to be given to Adam Bennett.
In between meeting clients, ensuring clients' goals and expectations are met, safeguarding campaign renewals and managing two football teams, Adam managed to spare us a few minutes to talk career highlights, industry changes and what he likes to do when he's not in work.
How long have you worked at Just Search?
I have worked here since February 2011, so 2 ½ years now.
Have you always worked in digital marketing?
Nope, before Joining Just Search I was a sports development officer in the South Manchester area.
How has Just Search and the industry as a whole changed over the years?
Just Search has made some real changes, the most significant being the delivery of our campaigns. The industry has changed from previous link building techniques to a more effective strategy in creating real relationships and brand exposure for our clients.
What has been the biggest highlight of your career at Just Search so far?
I would say the highlight of my career so far was making the transition from consultant over to client campaign manager and having a more hands on role working with the large clothing brands at Just Search.
What is most rewarding about the job?
The most rewarding part of the job is seeing a client renew their campaign based on the service and results they have received in their first year.
What are your interests and hobbies?
My main interests and hobbies are football, Stockport County and sport. Outside of work I manage an open age Saturday football team in the Lancashire and Cheshire League, spend time on the golf course and enjoy socialising with friends and family and spending time with my two nephews, Harry and George.

Sherpa Performance on Top of the World
May 12, 2008 8:00 AM
Nearly one year ago, Scott McIntosh, M.D., M.P.H., spent a few minutes on top of the world—literally. McIntosh, assistant professor of emergency medicine, summited Mount Everest last May while conducting physiological research with the SuperSherpa Expedition.
"Our role was to look at the Sherpas' physiology and why they are so good at what they do at high altitudes," he said. Sherpas are native to the Himalayan Mountain region of Nepal and are legendary for their strength and stamina on the 29,035-foot ascent up Everest, the world's highest peak.
Stacie Wing-Gaia, Ph.D., R.D., principal investigator and assistant professor of nutrition, said the study results of this first all Sherpa expedition provide a starting point for more study. Next month, she plans to submit a case study for publication in an altitude-related journal.
The researchers suspected that the Sherpa's aptitude had something to do with their history of habitating the Himalaya region for 25,000 years, genetically predisposing them to better performance at higher altitudes.
"If we took anyone from here and put them on the summit of Everest, they would be unconscious in about two minutes and dead in five minutes," explained McIntosh. Everest contains about one-third of the oxygen at sea level. Attempting to summit the mountain requires three weeks' acclimation for most climbers. Sherpas need only 10 days.
Prior to the expedition's departure, the chief subjects of the study, Apa Sherpa and Lhakpa Sherpa, two of the world's most accomplished Everest mountaineers who now live in Utah, underwent tests for strength, physical fitness, body composition, respiratory and heart rates. The results weren't particularly impressive, according to McIntosh. But as soon as the team reached Base Camp (elevation 17,800 feet), the Sherpas began to stand out.
McIntosh and co-investigator Staci Nix, R.D., instructor of nutrition in the U's College of Health who was stationed at Base Camp, monitored the Sherpas to measure their total energy expenditure, weight, hydration, body composition, oxygen saturation, and heart and respiratory rates. McIntosh was monitored for comparison purposes.
Early in the climb, the Sherpas' oxygen saturation levels measured in the mid- to high-70s while McIntosh was in the low 60s. An Emergency Department patient who arrived with a saturation level below 90 would be put on oxygen and rushed to the Surgical Intensive Care Unit, according to McIntosh.
They also found the Sherpas used 3,600 kilocalories a day. By comparison, a Tour de France rider expends around 7,000 to 8,000 kilocalories during a day in the saddle, McIntosh said. "To me, this means the Sherpas are very efficient at what they do."
Because of intestinal illness, loss of appetite, dehydration or other problems, the average Everest climber loses 20 percent of body weight. But none of the Sherpas lost weight and, in fact, one guide gained weight. This could be related to their resting metabolic rate, which is believed to play a role in altitude-induced weight loss. Most Everest climbers' resting metabolic rate increases 7 percent to 28 percent, but the Sherpas' resting metabolic rate did not rise.
The Sherpas did show significant dehydration. Yet they didn't exhibit the usual symptoms—headaches and nausea. Because of language barriers and cultural differences, the team was unable to measure the Sherpas' appetite and dietary intake, and Wing-Gaia would like to someday quantify that information. "There is still so much to learn about the Sherpas high-altitude performance that could open the path to helping lowlanders better adjust to high altitude and treat acute mountain illnesses."

(KMOV) – A couple called Colombo after St. Louis County officials hit them with an expensive and unusual demand.
Denise and Lawrence Wohldmann moved to Woodson Terrace from New Mexico and were very pleased with their new home, including the double driveway. This gave them room for both vehicles and a trailer.
Soon after moving in, a city inspector came by and told them they had to remove the second driveway at their own expense within 30 days.
They called News 4's Mike Colombo to get to the bottom of this surprise expense.

Developer Q&A: Jamie Gotch, Subatomic Games
We recently asked Jamie Gotch, one of the principals at Subatomic Games, some questions about his company and its first game, Fieldrunners. Here's what he had to say. Thanks Jamie!
1) What's your background in terms of game design? Is Fieldrunners the first game you (and/or Subatomic) have made?
Our team shares a strong passion and love for games. Although this is the first title that the Subatomic Studios team has released, we are made up of several industry professionals with many years of experience. We strongly believe that as game designers, we make the games that we would love to play ourselves. We trust that by giving our best and enjoying the process, others will also enjoy the games that we make.
2) Fieldrunners has a pretty unique look. What's the artistic inspiration for the game? How about the gameplay inspiration?
We wanted to make a game with a broad appeal, both in terms of artistic direction and gameplay. For the look, we wanted to have stylized, iconic forms and strong, varied silhouettes so it could be easily recognized at a glance. We felt that this was very important for an action-based strategy game viewed from a bird's eye view on a handheld device. Additionally, we wanted to have something that people can relate to by incorporating a slight military touch, but we also wanted to keep the style unique enough so that it could stand alone on its own merits. For that, we looked at World War I and World War II uniforms for the units, and some futuristic Art Deco influence for the towers. We also wanted the towers to appear more threatening than the units, to emphasize the amount of power lying in the player's hands.
To further set the two sides apart, we wanted a clear icon that would represent the enemy's faction. We decided that a target symbol best suits this need as it is very iconic, reads well from afar, and conveys the underlying goal of the game.
As far as gameplay inspiration, we looked everywhere for it. We are still being inspired by traditional Tower Defense games, and we are all huge fans of RTS games. Our ultimate goal was to make something easy-to-learn, but hard-to-master. Beating a map on the hard difficulty level does not instantly mean you have mastered that map. The game rewards efficiency by giving a higher score to those players that build the most efficient maze with as little tower sales as possible.
We have some aces up our sleeves, and we believe that there's still quite a lot of fun to be had with the coming updates. We trust that if we work hard to create something we love to play and have tons of fun with, so will everyone else!
3) What's your favorite game on the iPhone right now (other than yours)?
Aurora Feint: The Beginning.
4) Are you working on any new projects you'd like to discuss?
Although there are many interesting prospects we are considering for the future, currently all of our time is being devoted to bringing new content and features to Fieldrunners. Our goal is to make Fieldrunners truly shine!
Developer Q&A: Austin Meyer on X-Plane 9
We've been covering the launch of X-Plane 9 since it made its surprise debut on the App Store late last week.
X-Plane 9 is the first flight simulator for the iPhone/iPod Touch, bringing a degree of realism not yet seen in other games for the platform. We've been fans of the desktop version of X-Plane for years, and had some questions for Austin Meyer, the chief developer at Laminar Research, the company behind X-Plane.
Slide to Play: You've been making X-Plane on the desktop for a long time. What has it been like to move from that environment onto the iPhone platform?
Austin Meyer: Fun as heck! For the desktop sim, there are many thousands of lines of code and hundreds (thousands?) of image files from me, Ben, and Sergio. [STP Note: The other lead developers/artists at Laminar Reaseach] It is very difficult to make major changes to the simulator without re-writing LOTS of code to make the major changes possible, and without risking breaking something in the sim. As well, many customers get used to things working a certain way, and whenever you CHANGE things, many people just assume that the NEW way of doing this must be WRONG. This makes it a little difficult, sometimes, to get things changed in the sim. None of this is a factor with the iPhone, which is a clean-sheet design.
Between the thousands of lines of code, and thousands of customers, it is about impossible to get anything big done.
None of that is a factor with the iphone.
At the moment, the program is more of a simulation than a game'"just like X-Plane on the desktop. Do you plan to change that with future updates?
No, not at all. We will add a few features to the iphone version (map, for example, and maybe an instrument panel) but it will not get 'game-y'.
Do you plan to let users bring aircraft of their own design, or back-catalog planes, over from the desktop version?
Nah'¦ It is not so easy to import stuff into the iphone. I can not see it being customized.
What is the simulation accuracy of the iPhone version like in comparison to the desktop version?
Within 5% or so. I managed to get ~95% of the accuracy of the big sim over the iphone without busting system requirements.
More generally, what future plans do you have for expanding the application?
You will know what I am doing next when I post an email to the newsgroup claiming what can NOT be done!

2010 is going to be a busy year for Ben Sharpa. Ben is back in Europe for the Vagina Rush Tour with R;zatz, K-the-I??, Bluebird and DJ Raiko. So far they have 9 dates booked for March and April, but more are being added all the time. Check out the gigs page for more info.
Check the Myspace pages:
Ben Sharpa
DJ Raiko
We're also working hard on the new 4D Live Show. Rehearsals start at the end of February before Ben leaves for Europe. 4D is a live improvised hip hop, electro-dub, grime mashup featuring Ben Sharpa on 'freestyle', dubbed-out, sampled, re-sampled, chopped-up, cut and scratched vocals. Dplanet on production, using Ableton Live and an Akai APC40 to manipulate heavy Robot Army riddims. DJ Raiko behind the decks, using Technics SL1210s and Serrato to create cuts, scratches and live DJ effects. spo0ky on the Vidvox VDMX using bespoke graphic and motion design to create high-impact visual stimulus and Siya singing dubbed-out African melodies
4D is a collision of futuristic freestyle underground lyrical hip hop, apocalyptic electro-dub Robot Army Music (RAM) and mind-altering, analogue impulse triggered visual stimulus. Participants will be taken on a 4 dimensional journey through the heaviest, darkest, dirtiest, raw dubs narrated by the astro physicist Kaptin' of your ship, Ben Sharpa.
We've also started working on Ben's second solo album. It's still in the concept phase but you can expect more dark, grimy, electo-dub – this time we'll be twisting the fabric of time and space to create a project that goes back to Ben's GroundWorks roots in hip hop.
The collaborations keep on coming too. Ben has worked with Mode 9 (Nigeria), Siete Nueve (Puerto Rico), Foreign Beggars (UK), Milanese (UK), K-the-I?? (US), High Tones (France), R;zatz (France) and, most recently, LV (Hyperdub, UK). Expect a lot more for 2010!
That's how we rrrrrrrrroll!!

The sweetheart neckline and the extra wide straps that tie in a big bow through a buttonhole in the back of the bodice give this dress such a romantic and feminine look. The back bodice can be shirred using elastic thread, or choose the elastic casing option and 1/8" elastic if you dislike shirring. The three tiered skirt looks lovely sewn using just one fabric, or use three different prints for a more eclectic look The ruffles between the tiers give the dress just the right amount of fanciness to make this the perfect party dress. There is also a second version with ruched ruffles that are sewn over the seams between the tiers, after the skirt is put together. Make the straps double sided, or save some fabric with the single sided version. This tutorial is suitable for a beginner with some solid sewing experience or an intermediate seamstress. If you are comfortable with gathering and making buttonholes, chances are you will have no problem with sewing the Juliette dress. Sizes 6-12 months through 8 are included.

International Justice Clinic
The students in the International Justice Clinic (IJC) work with activists, lawyers, diplomats, scholars and NGOs at home and around the world to develop and implement advocacy strategies concerning accountability for human rights abuses. Clinic students pursue research, engage in on-the-ground fact finding, conduct interviews in cross-cultural settings, and prepare written and oral reports of their findings. Future students will focus on oral and written advocacy, coalition building, legal research, and legislative drafting, all while taking on a 'primary advocate' role in specific areas of human rights law.
Recent and Ongoing Projects in the IJC include:
- Project on Direct Participation in Hostilities – Students worked in collaboration with the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Civilians in Armed Conflict, conducting research to assess civilian understanding of when they become "participants" in armed conflict and thus subject to detention, targeting, and other measures. Two students and faculty conducted research and interviews in Northern Ireland during the spring of 2013.
- Burma Project – Students and faculty laid the ground work for long-term engagement with lawyers, educators, former political prisoners and activists in Burma/Myanmar. Future students will develop the long-term projects, such as technical legal education and training, human rights education, and/or projects aimed at individual lawyers and law firms.
- Human Rights & the Environment – Students collaborated with the United Nations' ("UN") Independent Expert on Human Rights and the Environment, exploring emerging norms at the intersection of these two bodies of law. This project enabled the students to work with a leader in the field, to engage with a range of professionals in Geneva, and to develop hands-on experience working with essential human rights institutions in the UN.

Robert Sylvester Kelly (born January 8, 1967 in Chicago, Illinois) is a multiple Grammy Award winning American Urban R&B singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and record producer. He first appeared on the music scene as the founder and lead singer of Public Announcement whose smooth mixture of hip-hop beats, soul, and funk propelled the group's 1992 debut album Born Into the '90s to platinum status. Upon R. Kelly's departure from Public Announcement, he singlehandedly became one of the biggest-selling male artists of the '90s and one of the most successful male artists of all time.
Kelly is well known for his explicit carnality, creating such hits as "Bump N' Grind", "Feelin' on Yo Booty", and "Ignition (Remix)." However, Kelly has also had hits such as "I Believe I Can Fly", "I'm Your Angel" (the Grammy-nominated duet with C?line Dion), "If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time", "I Wish", & "Step in the Name of Love (Remix)", which have transcended Kelly's sexed-up image into R&B crossover success.

I saw on the Today show this morning that today is "Green Monday". Apparently more money was spent on Green Monday last year than on Cyber Monday. The hard stats I could find on Wikipedia say that in 2009, green monday trailed cyber monday by only a small margin that year. Regardless you get the point.
It's days like today that I'm wishing I had made about 20x the amazon niche sites that I had last year. Although grueling to muscle out sometimes b/c they are seo based, results do come in the form of awesome cross selling capability of Amazon when the traffic winds turn in your favor a few months later.
So make note of your seo niches while you are on the road or online shopping this year b/c "6 Weeks Of SEO" is coming on January 2. What better way to shake off the new year's mental fuzz than with a good SEO challenge! This year, we're giving away an iPad 2 to the winner as voted by the participants. Thanks to Coop and Wolf Storm Media for sponsoring the challenge.

Country Boy Farm of Edgefield, SC, swept all three places in the legume baleage category in the 2012 Southeastern Hay Contest, held last week in conjunction with the Sunbelt Agricultural Expo in Moultrie, GA. This is the first time in the history of the contest that one farm family has captured all three spots in a single category, says Dennis Hancock, University of Georgia Extension forage specialist. "It is the hay contest's triple crown."
All three of Country Boy Farm's category entries registered more than 300 relative forage quality (RFQ) points. "The RFQ was so high that the values were considered outside the calibration of the machine, as any RFQ scoring greater than 300 is considered out of range." The farm's winning entry also tested 36.4% crude protein and 81.2% total digestible nutrients.
Duncan Legacy Farms, Carrollton, GA, notched first-place awards in the warm-season, perennial grass-hay and the cool-season, perennial grass-hay categories. Other category winners included Geralds Farms, Munfordville, KY, in the perennial peanut-alfalfa hay category; Wes Smith, Thomaston, GA, in mixed and annual grass hay and Rolling Rock Farms, Cumming, GA, in grass baleage.
This year's contest attracted 150 entries from throughout the southeastern U.S., a 24% increase compared to last year's total. "(That's) largely a reflection of the severity of the growing conditions in 2011 and the recovery that we had in the later part of this season," says Hancock.
Organizers are already gearing up for next year's contest. Official entry forms and contest guidelines will be posted soon on the Georgia Forages Web site.

Nicki Minaj Hosting All Pink Everything New Year's Eve Party at Mansion
Categories: New Year's Eve, News
via twitter.com/nickiminaj |
The Sunday before Nicki dropped her highly anticipated debut album, Pink Friday, MTV aired a documentary titled My Time Now that gave us a 24/7 eye into her life.
Then Team Barbie took over Time Square on Black Friday for the launch of Minaj's exclusive M.A.C. lip color while Lil Kim decided to take advantage of Nicki's big day by simultaneously releasing the diss-track, "Black Friday." On it, Lil Kim continues to call Nicki her "clone" and a "Lil Kim wannabe."
The outcome of all this hoopla? Nicki took second place in this week's album sales sweepstakes with 350,000 copies sold. (Kayne West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy took the top spot with 495,000 in sales.) Yet despite her runner-up finish, Minaj's success this year is undeniable. And she's decided to close out her super-sized year in Miami with an "All Pink Everything" New Year's Eve Party at Mansion.
The party promises to pimp out the club in all pink and will feature Harajuku Barbie dancers, a midnight light show, and a countdown by Ms. Minaj herself. Those who want to cough up the $200 general admission price will also get to enjoy an open bar until midnight. Despite Drake hosting a party of his own nearby, we're sure he and his fellow Young Money crew will make an appearance.
Click here to catch all seven parts of My Time Now, or check out Nicki's recent interview with Hot 97's Angie Martinez below. She chats about her signature facial expressions, answers fans' questions, and addresses Lil Kim's "sore loser" shots at her.

For those that are interested in seeing a hoot owl up close you should check out your local wildlife conservatory. In my hometown we actually have a bird sanctuary that was set up for injured birds. They have a few hoot owls there that you can visit.
Taking your kids to something like a bird sanctuary is a great way for them to learn about the ecosystem and see some lovely creatures up close.
My kids absolutely love seeing birds and other animals up close, and we make it a point to volunteer at our local wildlife conservatory a few times a month.

Basic batch processing
We love taking photos, but we have to admit that our images often end up languishing on our camera because we so hate the process of transferring them to our computer and processing them. SunlitGreen BatchBlitz Portable is a simple program that can make handling batches of images much less of a hassle.
The program's interface is plain, and we weren't sure what to do at first. Although BatchBlitz comes with a built-in Help file, we couldn't get any of its content to load. After a bit of exploration we figured the program out, and it turns … Read more

So, that's a bit off topic... Let's try, though, since APD features Freedom and Liberty national values.
What is the conceptual difference between freedom and liberty ? Neither Google nor the Wiktionary really helped me, since i got contradictory definitions.
So far I've understood that one is a matter of fact and the other is a matter of law and institutions - opposition between de facto and de jure... But which one fits which definition ?
English being not my native language, I'm a bit lost.
Thanks in advance

The market for Wi-Fi in original equipment manufacturer (OEM) automotive applications will increase eightfold over the next seven years in North America and Western Europe according to IMS Research (recently acquired by IHS Inc.).
The research firm notes that Wi-Fi attach rates in North America and Western Europe are relatively low at the moment but suggests that Wi-Fi will follow a trend similar to Bluetooth, with attach rates ramping-up quickly between now and 2019.
IMS senior analyst Filomena Berardi, author of the recently published study, "The Wireless Car," observes that Wi-Fi has transitioned from a PC networking technology to a more ubiquitous connectivity solution with a strong presence in a broad range of consumer products.
The introduction of Wi-Fi Direct – Wi-Fi with the ability to make a peer-to-peer connection – created an opportunity for specific automotive applications. The most likely Wi-Fi in-car use cases, according to Berardi, are in-car hotspots, wireless screen duplication, tethering, wireless car diagnostics, and wireless software upgrading.
Another factor, she says, is that Bluetooth high speed never materialized. "This left a gap in the automotive industry that needed to be filled, but it wasn't until 100 percent attach rates in smartphones and Wi-Fi Direct that Wi-Fi was considered to fill the void that Bluetooth high speed left."
Berardi predicts a "fairly aggressive" uptake of Wi-Fi in vehicles. "OEMs see great opportunities for in-car use cases, and some see the recent Wi-Fi Alliance announcement regarding Wi-Fi Miracast as very exciting. It can be used in conjunction with MirrorLink for wireless screen duplication.
"There's even talk of using Wi-Fi for camera modules and many other interesting in-car applications. These will all further drive demand by OEMs to include Wi-Fi as standard or as an optional extra. All in all, the future for Wi-Fi in the car is very promising. Wi-Fi in the car is at the beginning of its journey and in spite of this promising start and potential – nothing in the automotive industry is straightforward."

The Bathhouse at Calistoga Ranch
Where: Napa Valley, California
Hey, Isn't That…? The rustic-chic bungalows draw romantic duos like Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, but a visit is no guarantee of lasting love: Lance Armstrong and Sheryl Crow broke off their engagement after staying here. Still, Marcia Cross's beau popped the question at Calistoga Ranch, which may explain why fellow Desperate Housewife Teri Hatcher—who seems to be as haplessly boy-crazy as her TV character—also stopped in.
All-Star Treatment: The 150-minute Calistoga Cure ($350) includes a mineral mud bath, linen wrap, and "polarity therapy—gentle rocking and touch to release energy blockages.
The Dirt: Teri seems like she could use some gentle rocking, but nobody's buying the Ryan Seacrest thing.

Adam Cayton-Holland appears on the sitcom "Happy Endings" tonight; orders a sandwich
Denver comic extraordinaire and former Westword writer Adam Cayton-Holland is scheduled to make his TV debut tonight on the ABC sitcom "Happy Endings." "I ably played the role of 'Customer' and it was my duty in the scene to order a sandwich. And I ordered the shit out of that sandwich," he reports on his blog.
The cast of "Happy Endings," not including Adam. |
"Not literally. It would be weird if they included shit as an ingredient in a sandwich and you had to specifically request it out," he continues on Adam Is Freaking Out Right Now, where you can read the rest of the story.
This is the second episode of "Happy Endings," which stars Damon Wayans Jr. and Elisha Cuthbert. It's about a group of friends who live in Chicago.

A little Tebow humor to end the snowy day
Posted By Lindsay Jones On December 22, 2011 @ 6:32 pm In General Broncos | 13 Comments
It seems that as part of Tim Tebow's endorsement deal with Jockey, he occasionally films a question and answer segment. In this one, posted by Jockey today, we see a side of Tebow that he rarely shows the public.
Here's the video. In the first minute, he answers some questions about his touchdown celebration and pre-game routine. Typical Tebow stuff. But about a minute in …. comedy gold.
Only problem is now I can't get the Thong Song out of my head. Thanks, Tim.
