1, 2, 3, 4. Get Your Booty On the Floor...
Hi again!
I'm back with another teaser of another one of the great sets that MFT is releasing this Wednesday at 10 pm EST.
Finally, Bling 'Bet has a friend! I have been wanting a set of numbers to match up with Bling 'Bet for SOOOO long. I am so stinkin' pleased that it's finally here!
For today's project, I decided that I wanted to make a perpetual calendar. I guess I was still on an advent calendar kick from my Christmas projects, and I decided to make one to use all year long!
So for this calendar, all the "components" (months, dates, days of the week) are on magnets, so that you can move them around however you need them. That way, if the 3rd of the month falls on a Monday one month and a Thursday another month, you're all set, and you only have to use one calendar! :)
(I don't know why this looks a little crooked in this picture. It must have been the angle that I took the photo at. I swear that it's straight and even in person! ;P) Anyhow, click on it for a big version that you can actually see! :)
Here are a couple of close-ups for ya, too! :)
This calendar is HA-UGE! The frame for it is 24" x 24" and thick wood. VERY heavy. Trust me on this one -- I had to carry it upstairs to take pictures and got winded! LOL
To make the calendar, I painted the wood frame with brown acrylic paint. I inked the edges of large squares of designer paper and backed them with cream cardstock, to give them a brighter border. I adhered those to the frame with tacky glue. The center section of the frame is sheet metal (galvanized steel) that I cut to size and covered with more decorative paper.
To make the numbers, I stamped the Bling 'Bers numbers on small pieces of decorative paper and attached them to chipboard for some stability. Then I rounded the corners, inked the edges, and sanded them to rough them up a bit. I glued a strong magnet to the back of each one.
For the month names, I did the same thing, this time with Bling 'Bet. I wanted the months to "pop" a little more, so I outlined the inside of each of the Bling holes with a white gel pen. (Yes, that took forever!). In fact, this whole thing took me about 3 days. I don't know why, really... I guess it was just a whole lotta sanding and cutting and inking! :)
I also made little circle tiles for the days of the week. I used the Alpha Dots set for this. I stamped them on red designer paper, but then they didn't stand out well enough for my liking. So I took a white gel pen and hand drew in a dotted border around the outside of their circles. And then I filled in the letter portion of the image with white gel pen, too.
To finish off the calendar, I attached a wide ribbon and a button-y bow accent. It's not that impressive looking all by itself, really, but it finishes off the calendar nicely.
I didn't have any buttons quite as large as I wanted, so I covered a larger chipboard circle with more coordinating designer paper and used that to back my other buttons.
Since the center section is just a piece of galvanized steel, the extra months and dates can just get stuck on the back of the calendar (with their magnets) until I need them. I also wanted to make little tiles for various holidays, but I just plain ran out of time. I'll be adding them soon, and then they can hang out with the "extras" on the back of the calendar, until I need them! :)

full story by BBC:
"In my factory in China, the salary of workers has been increasing steadily over the last few years," she told me during her recent visit to Bangladesh to look for opportunities here.
"It has reached around $400 to $500 (£250 – £315) a month per worker. If I continue to produce there, our business will disappear.
"In Bangladesh the average monthly salary for garments workers is only around $70 to $100. If I produce here, price is much more competitive."
She has already opened an office in Dhaka and is not only looking to order clothes for her own firm but is also involved in getting other Chinese online retailers to source from Bangladesh.
Chinese manufacturers say if they source clothes from Bangladesh, prices can come down by 10% to 15% depending on the category.

A great little dance.We've done it to Holly Valance but both my classes preferred dancing to the original Turkish version by Tarkan (the tags are in there too but in different places - music only parts). I hope the dance lasts after Kiss Kiss has faded away as it can be enjoyed to all sorts of music (without tags)
Barbara Plackett - 12/08/2002
This dance is still up there in our top 10 dances, and everywhere we go its still a floor filler, well done Nev
laura - 28/06/2002
well what a brill dance to a great piece of music, the tags keep the dance interesting, fits really well, this is a dance that you will love
Ed Ybarra - 28/06/2002

Paula 'Texas Star' Essex. - 20/05/2002

geri - 19/05/2002
taught this to my class, and it went down very well, they clapped at the end of the dance and asked for it again,a dance for everyone, geri
geri - 19/05/2002
sorry i hit wrong rate definatly worth 5 boots
Alan & Barb - Feel The Beat - 14/05/2002
We taught this dance to our intermediate class last Wednesday and they loved it. Getting the tag's right is a bit mmwaaah-ish but once done it's o.k. We may be teaching this at the Dancelines Festival at Brean Sands May 17-20th, but it depends upon the level of the dancers there before we finally decide.
Good easy dance.A definite hit with my class
Sue Graydon - 07/05/2002
Smashing dance. Fits ever so well to music. Easy to learn, we all picked it up without a hitch, very unusual.

Wiley Smith
"The robotic surgery and outcome is much better than I anticipated. It was a fantastic combination of having the best doctor, best nurses and the best hospital."
Wiley Smith lives in one of the West's last real ranching communities, a quaint place he proudly claims "has no stop lights, no doctors and no hospitals." So when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in June 2009, there was no question in his mind that he would need to travel outside of his rural hometown in Central Idaho in order to get the best, most advanced treatment.Smith was diagnosed with Ductal Adenocarcinoma, a rare subtype of prostate cancer. A close friend, who had lost his wife to cancer a couple months prior to Smith's diagnosis, advised him to locate the best cancer doctor he could find. Smith immediately contacted long time friend of the family and Idaho state native, Dr. Raymond Lance, fellowship-trained urologist with Sentara Medical Group. "I knew of Dr. Lance and his reputation in prostate surgery and cancer research," he says. "I wanted him to treat me. He's like a son to me, and I trust him completely. I knew he'd take care of me." "I researched a lot. The more I researched and talked to people, the more I heard what an outstanding hospital Sentara Norfolk General was." Smith underwent a daVinci Robotic-Assisted Prostatectomy, a procedure that typically results in shorter recovery and fewer post operative problems. He only stayed one night in the hospital and after a couple days, his soreness was gone. Smith is an active 72-year-old who works with his two sons at their cattle ranch located at the base of one of Idaho's highest mountains. He was anxious to get back to "haying" and his other daily chores. "They needed me back at the ranch," he says. "I had a lot to do." Smith credits his success story to the excellent treatment he received at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital. He believes his 2,500 mile trip to Norfolk was well worth it. "The robotic surgery and outcome is much better than I anticipated. It was a fantastic combination of having the best doctor, best nurses and the best hospital. I'm going to keep busy," he says, proud to be healthy and back doing what he loves. "Why would I ever want to retire and just sit down all day? I do all my retiring at night."

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Principal spokeswoman Susan Houser says the agreement combines Principal's experience with wellness screenings and related programs with Accountable Health's expertise in building and acquiring technology that help companies improve the efficiency and quality of their health care programs.

"From the time of their first contact with European settlers, the American Indians have been oppressed and brutalized, deprived of their ancestral lands and denied the opportunity to control their own destiny," President Nixon wrote to Congress on July 8, 1970. "Even the Federal programs which are intended to meet their needs have proven to be ineffective and demeaning."
He then articulated a new vision that would allow the tribes to govern themselves, while assuring them that the government would protect their property rights and natural resources, and provide them – like it would to any state, city, or community – Federal assistance for education, health care, and economic opportunity.
This vision was the subject of a Nixon Legacy Forum at the University of Tulsa's Gilcrease Museum on May 23, 2012.
The President's words represented a clear break from two centuries of Federal policies that oscillated from broken treaties, isolation, and the appropriation of lands, to forced assimilation, and the aggressive termination of the U.S. government's solemn obligation as a trustee to the nation's tribes.
Revived during the Truman administration, the policy of termination was essentially what President Theodore Roosevelt exuberantly called " a mighty engine pulverizing the tribal mass."
"The idea was to break up the Indian reservations, and allot the lands and transform the Indians from hunters to farmers," explained Reid Peyton Chambers, the forum's moderator and former Solicitor at the Bureau of Indian Affairs. "The reservation could be opened up for homesteaders…and within a generation basically, the Indians would simply be assimilated and the Indian tribes and reservations would disappear."
For President Nixon, the policy of termination was wrong because it meant the United States would not honor its commitment to recognize tribal authority and property rights, even after Native Americans had surrendered vast amounts of land to the Federal government.
The first panel, featuring Nixon administration officials, focused on how RN brought liberty and self-determination to Native Americans.
As a consequence, its very prospect disoriented and impeded the progress of the "first Americans" who at the time ranked at the bottom of every social scale of measurement.
"The fear of one extreme policy, forced termination, has often worked to produce the opposite extreme: excessive dependence on the Federal government," RN continued. "In many cases this dependence is so great that the Indian community is almost entirely run by outsiders who are responsible and responsive to Federal officials in Washington, D.C., rather than to the communities they are supposed to be serving"
Bobbie Kilberg, who served as a White House Fellow under President Nixon and later as Staff Assistant on the Domestic Council, noted that the President's passion to right the injustice was rooted in his youth.
Wallace "Chief" Newman, RN's football coach at Whittier College, was a member of the La Jolla Band of Luiseño Indians, and very influential in young Nixon's life.
"I think I admired him more and learned more from him than any man I have ever known aside from my father," RN would later write in his memoirs. "He drilled into me a competitive spirit and the determination to come back after you have been knocked down or after you lose. He also gave me an acute understanding that what really matters is not a man's background, his color, his race, or his religion, but only his character."
"He [Coach Newman] was discriminated against in those days when Native Americans and other minorities were simply not selected as coaches for major football programs nor selected for major honors as players," Kilberg said. "The President believed – as he once told me – that coach Newman would have been a consensus all-American if it had been a different time and that he would have been a coach at a Big Ten school rather than Whittier."
The capstone of the July 8 message was the return of Blue Lake and the surrounding sacred lands to the Taos Pueblo Indians of New Mexico, whose more than 40,000 acres were seized by the Roosevelt administration in 1906.
And its occasion proved as powerful as some of the statements it made, explained LaDonna Harris, Director of Americans For Indian Opportunity and an early leader in the movement for self-determination.
On the same day at the White House, the President met with the tribal council of the Taos people.

Posted by Richard on February 24, 2009
An anonymous reader asks:
When Jesus comes down with his angels, and takes all the Christians and believers will other people still have a chance when they die?
First, I need to make a distinction between the event commonly called "the Rapture" and the event called "The Second Coming." Some view those events as the same, however it would be redundant to rapture only the believers (1 Thes 4:17) and then immediately proceed to separate them in the final judgment (Rev 20:2). When the believers are raptured, they will be caught up with Christ mid-air, and that this is not his full return. Scripture tells us that believers in Jesus Christ will be kept from the time of great tribulation (Rev 3:20, 1 Thes 4:16-17). See a full discussion of the time between the Rapture and the Second Coming, at Tribulation.
The time of The Great Tribulation marks an unprecedented outpouring of God's wrath on mankind. However, all is not yet lost. The Bible teaches us that during The Tribulation, new believers will be converted. 144,000 (12,000 From each tribe of Israel) Jewish believers will come out of the tribulation, as well as a great multitude of "Tribulation Saints" (Rev 7:4,9,14) saved during The Tribulation by the fruits of the Two Witnesses of The Tribulation (see Rev 11).
At the culmination of The Tribulation, the Antichrist will gather an army to march on Jerusalem (Rev 19:19), but they will be slain as Jesus descends (Rev 19:21) to judge mankind (Matthew 24:29-31).
The Final Judgment of mankind will happen when Jesus arrives again in all his glory, which is The Second Coming of Christ. (Matthew 25:31-46)
Mankind will be given many chances to accept the redemption offered through Jesus Christ. Definitely more than we deserve as sinners, and God has designed his perfect plan that it will be exactly what is necessary to save those that will believe.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:Works perfectly. My battery life had been less than 10 minutes of casual use before I ordered this replacement, and now it lasts for more than a week of casual use (maybe more - it's still going!). I am delighted to have a useful phone again, at an exceptional price.
Bottomline:Shipment came within a few weeks. Battery was exactly as advertised, and even though I have never taken apart a phone before, I was able to successfully follow some online instructions and replace the battery myself. My phone works better than ever now! Very satisfied.

Marthe Bilodeau? Luisa Bilodeau?
I was once told me they are part of one of my parents' history. But my parents no longer remember who they were. The photo may have been taken in/around Saint Georges de Beauce, Quebec, Canada around 1890.
The photo's measurements are only 4cm x 3cm and has red colored cardboard stuck to its back.
new information on this photo
My dad says this is a photo of Marthe Bilodeau and Luisa Bilodeau who are sisters. He also says Marthe Bilideau and Luisa Bilodeau's parents died when they were around 1-3 years old. And they were nieces of Joseph Aderlard Gagnon (1858 - 1937) and so he, Joseph Aderlard Gagnon, adopted them.
My dad says the photo is about 1918 and not the 1890s.

Tomlin awaits test of character
Tomlin awaits Steelers' test of character
By John Harris TRIBUNE-REVIEW Saturday, October 6, 2007 Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said recently he didn't know how his players would react to their first loss of the season. He'll have his answer in the next 36 hours. A 21-14 loss at Arizona presented the Steelers with their first setback and a challenge Tomlin has been awaiting since taking over last January. "When you are less than successful, character is revealed," Tomlin said. "I think it is being revealed that we have some strong character people, and that does not surprise me." Safety Troy Polamalu said Sunday's home game against Seattle (3-1) is a test to determine how the Steelers (3-1) will respond to their first sign of adversity under Tomlin. Against Arizona, the Steelers were outscored, 21-7, in the second half, were unable to establish their ground game, turned the ball over twice after intermission and were penalized a season-high 11 times for 72 yards. The Steelers will be tested mentally, as well as physically, against a Seattle team they defeated in Super Bowl XL. Polamalu is one of four regulars -- along with wide receiver Hines Ward, nose tackle Casey Hampton and cornerback Bryant McFadden -- who could miss the game because of injuries. "There's a lot of things that we still have to find out," Polamalu said. "I think it's really important to see how you bounce back from those type of games." Left tackle Marvel Smith is a true believer. He said the Steelers are a veteran team whose players believe in their system, their coaches and in each other. Smith expects the Steelers to respond accordingly against Seattle because that's what veteran teams do under these circumstances. "There's no doubt we're going to bounce back fast and learn from the mistakes we made last week," Smith said. "It's a team where the core players have been together. We know what it takes to win. We know we can play at a high level. If anything, it just creates that much more of a sense of urgency." Tomlin said game day is when teams reveal how much they've improved from one week to the next. "I love the feeling you get when you come in here every week and you have to show and prove on weekends," Tomlin said. "You better show and prove more than you don't. I accept that as part of this business. I love that. This is what drives me and I hope that is what drives this football team." "This game is built around adversity, to tell you the truth," Smith said. "Every game, there's little ups and downs. It's just a matter of how you deal with it and how you come back from it." http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pitt.../s_531198.html

Re: Tomlin awaits test of character
So much talent.........so much yet to be written about Tomlins team. Can he pull them all together while we still have our star veterns on the field and can he pull up the youngsters by their chinstraps and bring out the best in them while the irons hot??
Tune in each Sunday..........don't miss it.
"We're not going to turn our backs on him," Ward said. "We're going to treat him like our brother. We're going to accept him back and be very supportive of him and help him get through this. In this locker room, he's still our quarterback." |

@Comfyshoes - I know what you are saying, but there is a 50% chance of whatever they predicted would come true. So I don't know if it was a fluke and you got lucky or if there was a degree of accuracy in this measure.
I know that this is an ancient tool that has been used for thousands of years so who knows. I bet it was fun to research the information, but I think that I would take the information with a grain of salt.

We booked our Christmas Dinner here...what an absolute mistake! Sour staff, no ambience, service with a scowl. Our starters were decidedly average: pate with solid butter on top...don't they know it should be melted? Soup with a 'plastic' roll, no butter! Then our mains...sliced reheated turkey, with reheated average vegetables.. (no seasonal parsnips/bread sauce/ homemade stuffing) no 'roast' potatoes, instead, we had soggy pigs in blankets and packet stuffing...what a joke! We asked for some more drinks and were told to go to the bar to fetch our own...waiting for the waitress to return, she delivered our drinks with a thud and fingers inside the glasses...yuk! Desserts were just as bad: Christmas Pudding bought from the nearest wholesaler, 'Chocolate Brownie' with Vanilla Ice Cream consisted of a thick slice of cheap dark chocolate fudge cake, definitely NOT a brownie..no finesse, still no smile, no taste. I dare to suggest the Chef refused to work Christmas Day and this was all they cold manage...an absolute fiasco!!! All in all an unmitigated disaster, costing £300 including drinks and Mr Clarke insists that we are the only unhappy customers...not what we heard....not many hung around for coffee, we certainly didn't...we beat a hasty retreat back home, where we were safely welcome with food fit for eating.

We made the mistake of booking our Christmas Lunch here yesterday. The Bear failed to deliver at every level. Poor food, no sense of service, and the function room was as welcoming as a school dining room. The turkey had been reheated and the vegetable selection was very limited. Add to this disinterested staff and dirty toilets and it is hard to find a redeeming feature. There were two - the beer was good and the house Merlot was perfectly acceptable. This was an expensive mistake - we will not be trying The Bear again.

I live close to the the bear inn, and have visited this beautiful pub in a perfect location for the past fifteen years. And after a couple of visits in the last week, I have to say i'm disappointed and surprised that the bear has won an award in the best pub guide. The service was terrible, the bar staff we're more interested in watching the football in the back room rather than serving the waiting customers in the bar, one customer said he'll never come again, also the ageing table staff could do with bringing up to date in customer service, I think when a customer receives their £25 steak and asks for a drink, he shouldn't be told quite bluntly to 'fetch his own drink as he's far too busy'. This pub used to be the place to go for a treat or special occasion, but not anymore. I hope you improve your service, and get back up at the top where you used to be.

Highly recommended. While en route Dorset to Scotland we stayed one night in one of the cottages adjacent to the pub. Very comfortable and couldn't fault it. Food in pub excellent, great atmosphere, staff very helpful, friendly and eager to please. Good hearty breakfast and quantity just right.

Lives up to its recommendation. Bass and TT Landlord well kept. Menu imaginative; food very good and not too expensive. Licensees very friendly and welcoming.

It was another grand opportunity to visit Pardee through Pardee Hospital Foundation's Making Rounds Tour where eight members of our community recently toured the hospital, starting first thing in the operating room.
Drs. Das and Mackel were generous in their time to share with our guests the orthopedic surgeries they were performing. Joe and Eileen from the day surgery crew also provided excellent information on processes in the surgical suites, the equipment the Foundation helped purchase, and data on Pardee's low infection rates. Our guests also visited the new Comprehensive Wound Center to see the new hyperbaric chambers. Paul explained how oxygen therapy works and the types of patients who can benefit.
"I really liked observing surgery and the willingness of the staff to impart information to us," said Ann N., one of the participants.
If you would like to participate in an upcoming Making Rounds tour, please contact the Foundation office at (828) 696-4666.

She is now an advocate for organ donation, heart disease, cancer, and disability awareness.
"Now that I'm 29, I can say that the adversity I've been through over the past 12 years has enriched my life in so many ways. My message to your community will be 'don't let any obstacle stand in your way'," said Melore.
Melore has won several awards including the YMCA's "Woman of Inspiration" and the New Jersey Transplant Association "Triangle Award" for "using the 'gift of life' to make a dramatic impact in and out of the transplant community". Tickets for the meet the speaker dinner may be purchased for $100.

Pardee Hospital Foundation held a re-dedication ceremony for the Orthopedic Center of Excellence on June 9. This comes after a renovation of the center that began in February of 2010. The re-dedication is a testament to Pardee's dedication to the orthopedics program as it continues to grow and remains an important service for Henderson County and surrounding communities.
The re-dedication ceremony included speakers; Pardee Interim CEO, Jerry Maier, Edward G. Lily, III, M.D., and Amal Das, M.D. discussing the growth, renovation and future of the center. Pardee Hospital Foundation committed to fully fund the renovation. Pardee Hospital Auxiliary was recognized as the lead donor in this $700,000 project. Other special gifts were provided by First Citizens, TD Bank, Hendersonville Orthopedics Associates, Chester Phillips, James H. Cummings Foundation and the Cannon Foundation.
Pardee Hospital Foundation is celebrating 15 years of service to our community and Pardee Hospital this year. The foundation has raised over $25 million for Pardee.

QNX demos the Secret to Making Hands-free Noise-free
11:00 am on Jan 18, 2012 | Leave a comment
[To View this on your BlackBerry, Click Here]
Today we continue our series of posts on QNX software systems, the people behind the BlackBerry PlayBook OS, as you probably already know. In today's video the QNX team demonstrates their next generation noise cancellation technology that's already found in cars around the world, but now it's in route to PlayBook OS 2.0.
During the video they have two people is vehicles equipped with the software. During a phone call they crank up various sounds and effects that demonstrate real world audio distractions. As you'll see in the video this tech far surpasses that found in any other noise cancellation product (because its much more than just noise cancellation). I just can't wait to video call on the PlayBook when they implement it in OS 2.0. Check out the video and give me a shout in the comments with your thoughts, good or bad.
BlackBerry 7 Theme development details to hit Inside BlackBerry Blog later this month
10:57 am on Jan 18, 2012 | Leave a comment
While some developers have found a workaround to build themes on BlackBerry 7 devices, they still aren't allowed to submit those to App World, and there are still many devs who are waiting for an official release. Today, RIM announced via Twitter that they will have full details on developing themes for BB7 on Inside BlackBerry later this month. This announcement couldn't have come at a better time as many theme developers were feeling left out to dry with the latest BlackBerry operating system.
Now, I'm going to go out on a limb and say there are going to be a few happy developers in the BlackBerry ecosystem later this month. Sound off in the comments with your thoughts.

But have yet to find a way to master the art of mobile payments, then you'll be ecstatic to know that RIM and Turkcell have launched a mobile wallet for the BlackBerry Bold 9900. This is the first news we've heard of a true mobile wallet being made available for BlackBerry smartphones, and I'm sure it isn't the last as we move into the era of BlackBerry OS 7.1.

Video Review: Reckless Racing HD for the BlackBerry PlayBook
5:17 pm on Jan 17, 2012 | Leave a comment
[To view this video on your BlackBerry, Click Here]
As I continue my adventure through BlackBerry App World finding some of the best looking games for the PlayBook, I've come across Reckless Racing HD by Pixelbite. If you've ever been a fan of racing games, and driving reckless in general, you'll want to pick this one up. There are a few game modes in Reckless Racing, one is online, another is computer Vs. human, and the last is a mode that has you racing around finding different items to collect and move to another location.
If you take a minute to watch my run (sad attempt) at Reckless Racing you'll see why I've picked it to review. You can pick the game up in App World for $4.99, which is a slick deal considering the hours of online fun to be had.
RIM highlights some developer success stories on BlackBerry.com
12:20 pm on Jan 17, 2012 | Leave a comment
I'm going to be straight up and say it. RIM has done a horrible job of highlighting the success of BlackBerry developers. The thing is it's not like there aren't any, BlackBerry devs on average make more money than those on Apple and Android. So when I saw Alex Kinsella from RIM (part of the Developer marketing team) tweet out that RIM has opened a new page on their website for dev success I immediately got to posting.
The new site on BlackBerry.com is there to focus on the success of developers on the BlackBerry platform, and also provide small micro interviews with the developer to see what they did to become successful. Currently RIM has about 5 stories on the site and some cool statistics on how they made the apps and where they've seen success. Check out the site and keep going back over the coming weeks as it should be updated on a regular basis. Also if you're a developer for another platform, this is a must see. Maybe it'll spark that creative gene and get you hooked on BlackBerry!
Research In Motion looking to Samsung for a buyout?!
11:44 am on Jan 17, 2012 | Leave a comment
Oh, the rumors keep circling RIM like sharks, and the latest rumor comes from BGR's Jonathan Geller. In this latest rumor Geller goes on to say that his trusted sources have informed him that RIM is looking to sell off part, or all of their company to the best candidate. Apparently, according to the trusted sources, that is Samsung.
While RIM has firmly said that they are not looking to sell the company and believe that BlackBerry 10 and what they have in the pipes will "leap-frog the competition", this isn't the first time we've seen a few rumors from trusted sources that are familiar with the matter make comments. Now looking at the this one in particular, I'm going to have to say it'll be a cold day in Canada when RIM sells to another company. It's the Canadian passion, and you heard it from the rumors of the Amazon buyout, RIM isn't looking to sell the company and I don't think anything has changed. We've reached out to RIM for a comment on this, though they were not immediately available for a comment. Sound off in the comments with your thoughts, curious to read what the BlackBerry Nation has to say about this.

QNX demos seamless connectivity in the car with HTML5
12:59 pm on Jan 16, 2012 | Leave a comment
[To View this on your BlackBerry, Click Here]
It's nothing new that RIMs next big thing will be the entrance into the automotive market , and we've already seen some of the fruits of their labors at this years CES. In this latest video from QNX automotive division you get a more in-depth idea as to just where they want to be, and how they are going to do it. One of the coolest things I found from the video is the way they think notifications from the car should be heard, and i quote "Why not have a voice, if its your rear door open, come from your back seat?". Having spatial auditory display would eliminate a lot of the headache of checking every door to find out which is open, and it's kinda techie so I like!
I really can't wait for the day when I'm surrounded by RIM and BlackBerry everywhere I go, and with QNX that reality is closer than you can ever imagine. Check out the video above, and let us know what BlackBerry features you would insist on having in your next car.
If you where one of the BlackBerry users that have been experiencing issues with App World when you tried to reinstall an application, then good news for you. RIM has pushed version 220.127.116.11 of App World through for update and should be available as a download through your current App World application or via the web at BlackBerry.com/AppWorld.
Remember that updates can take 24hrs to show up on your phone, but if you hit Alt RST then you maybe able to trick the system and get your update sooner.
Head to head: Xobni vs Gist – Which contact management service is the best?
11:34 am on Jan 16, 2012 | Leave a comment
There used to only be one way to keep contacts on a phone in check and that was with the standard contact list application found on your phone. But the year is 2012 and there are more than a handful of ways to keep those who you communicate with in order, but which is the best?
I've decided to pit Xobni and Gist (a newly RIM acquired company) against each other in an attempt to pick a solid winner. Who did I pick? Well, I can't answer that just yet. But by the end of this article I hope to have established a clear winner. Continue on for the full ins and outs of Gist, and Xobni.

A cool website for animated BBM avatars – Get them while they're hot!
3:16 pm on Jan 13, 2012 | Leave a comment
If you've updated your BlackBerry messenger application to version 6.1 you've probably seen a few animated avatars in the profile pic section. But if you're like me, then you've probably grown tired of those stock avatars. But don't you worry! We are here to save the day with a quick tip about a website that was sent to us, BBM-animated.com.
BBM-animated.com is a collection of pre made .Gif images (the ones needed to make cool bbm pics) and all you need to do is save them to your berry, and voila you have an animated display pic. So without further adieu, hop on your BlackBerry (install BBM 6.1 if you haven't) and get some hilarious display pic action going on.

GlenDronach (15 year) Revival
April 15, 2013
Like the 12 year, this is fruity and savory at the same time. However, where the 12 year has many fresh fruit flavors, in three more years the 15 has quickly become more concentrated and resinous.
GlenDronach (14 year) Sauternes Finish
February 18, 2013
This is dessert whisky, and no bones about it. While the GlenDronach house style (meaty/oily) is missing here, this is still one robust, flavor-filled escapade of a whisky. Sweet to the point of cloying, but excellently balanced by a grapey acidity and fruity complexity. Truly a pleasure, especially for a lover of dessert wines.
GlenDronach 1994 K&L Exclusive
January 26, 2012
At $116 for 750ml, I can't say I recommend that everyone run out and buy this. However, if you're looking for a splurge and love complex, meaty sherried Speysiders, this one is hard to beat.
GlenDronach (12 year) "Original"
June 21, 2011
This is an exceptionally good sherried malt. Worlds better (I think) than The Macallan 12, at a similar price point. It has a continuous balanced savoriness that works perfectly with the sweet fruit elements inherent in sherry maturation – like a good spicy/sweet glaze on barbecued pork. Yum. If you have a spot in your daily dram rotation for an inexpensive sherried malt, get this one.

IRISH CREAM O'DARBY: The French Market
Irish Cream is a typically Irish liqueur, prepared from a mix of whisky and cream, with a dash of chocolate. Irish Cream is very popular in Ireland. It conquered the US market in the 1960s and 1970s. Its success abroad has been so great that it is now no longer a negligible portion of total Irish exports.
The most famous brand is Bailey's. It holds a dominating market share, and the brand name tends to be used as a noun. People speak of drinking Bailey's rather than Irish Cream. O'Darby is a challenger to Bailey's, and it competes for the second market share with Carolan's. A fourth brand, Royal Tara, and two small Competitors, Waterford Cream and Emmets, share the rest of the market.
O'Darby, whose factory and headquarters are located in Cork, in the southern part of Ireland, was taken over at the beginning of the 1980s by Bacardi Rum, a leading multinational company in the spirits industry. Just a few months after the take-over, Bacardi undertook a large market survey, in the whole of the United States, to investigate how consumers perceived the generic product Iris h Cream, and especially the O'Darby brand. It appeared that the green-Coloured bottle was largely rejected by potential customers. A new packaging was designed, where brown colour dominated, for the bottle as well as the label. It led to an astonishing growth of sales' not only in the United States, but also in other national markets.
At the beginning of 1991, the director for the marketing of O'Darby hired a young junior marketing executive, Peter Finch, to be in charge of promoting Irish Cream O'Darby in France. Peter Finch, who had just graduated from a continuing education programme for training young export executives, travelled to France to see what could be done to increase sales. The exclusive distributor of Irish Cream O'Darby was the Benedictine Group, a large liquor producer, which sold on the French market through a network of non-exclusive sales agents,
O'Darby was not the first company producing Irish Cream to try to penetrate the French market. In 1982 and 1983, Bailey's had spent a lot of money, especially an advertising, to launch the Irish Cream. The results had been disappointing and sales margins had not been large enough to cover the marketing expenses. Bailey's had not withdrawn, but it had discontinued its costly marketing expenses. Bailey's had concentrated its sales coverage on Paris, the northern part of France, Normandy and Brittany. It appeared that Bailey's was unsuccessful in selling to customers in the southern part of France. When trying to explain this relative failure, sales agents had mainly questioned the price level which according to them, was too high.
During his first stay in France from March to May 1990, Peter Finch had been involved in sales promotion operations, with the help of the Benedictine network.
Shoppers in hypermarkets were asked to taste Irish Cream by giving them miniature bottles of O'Darby. It seemed to be difficult even to induce people to try the liquor.
However, this product was very popular in other developed Markets under a variety of uses. For instance, in the United States consumers mixed it with Coca-Cola or orange juice, in cocktails. O'Darby was well placed for use in cocktails, compared to its competitors, because of a special formula that made it easy to mix with other beverages. o mix with other beverages. In many markets, consumers used Irish Cream to coat ice- creams, cakes or strawberries. In Spain, where Irish Cream has achieved a good deal of product knowledge, Spanish consumers tend to call it Bailey's O'Darby. In September 1991 the situation for Irish Cream O'Darby was as follows:
1. It was sold almost exclusively in very large food stores (hypermarkets); it achieved a low penetration rate as a bar drink; it was rarely to be, found in restaurants.
2. The retail price was in the range of 45-50 francs for a bottle of 75 centilitres,
compared to Bailey's which was priced in the bracket of 55-60 francs for a bottle of 70 centilitres.
3. The annual sales for 1990 were 24,000 boxes of 12 bottles.
4. Sales coverage was limited to Paris, the northern part of France, Normandy and Brittany. The best-selling area was the departement of Finistere (Brest, Quimper), which is located in the most western part of France (a departement is a French territorial unit where there are generally between half a million and one million inhabitants). Finistere is linked by ferries to Ireland. There, per capita consumption of Irish Cream was three times as much as in the Paris region.
5. There was no advertising. Sales promotion was done mostly by means of free sampling, in hypermarkets, disco bars or night clubs ('O'Darby party nights').
6. The promotional budget, which was 300,000 francs in 1989, was more than doubled in 1990 to 700,000 francs.
1. Discuss and, possibly, criticize the marketing strategy which was adopted by Irish Cream O'Darby in order to enter the French market. In doing this you should, in particular, take care to examine what kind of market research should have been undertaken (a) prior to entering the market, and (b) after results had been achieved, and to question the coherence of the marketing mix. (You are not asked to prepare a marketing strategy as a whole, since the information available in this short case is not sufficient.)
2. Irish Cream O'Darby has to decide on the allocation of its total marketing budget to its various national markets. You are asked to outline the criteria and design of such an allocation method. The problem is allocation between national markets, not between local/regional markets within a particular country.

HAILEY, Idaho -- "Die Hard" movie star Bruce Willis is asking $15 million for his Idaho home complete with a guesthouse, gym and pool with water slides.
According to his real estate agent, Willis' property in Hailey's Flying Heart subdivision is up for sale because he hasn't been able to spend much time in the area.
Willis is also a small business owner in the Sun Valley area. Janine Bear, with Sun Valley Sotheby's International Real Estate, tells KING 5's sister station in Boise, KTVB, that while Willis is still looking to sell "The Mint" bar and nightclub, he does want the establishment up and running to benefit the community. The price of The Mint dropped to $4.5 million since it went on the market last year. It was originally listed at $6 million.
Willis and former wife, Demi Moore, became part of the celebrity scene in the Sun Valley area during the 1990s.
Willis still owns a ski area, Soldier Mountain, west of Hailey.

The E6AP ubiquitin-protein ligase (E3) mediates the human papillomavirus-induced degradation of the p53 tumor suppressor in cervical cancer and is mutated in Angelman syndrome, a neurological disorder. The crystal structure of the catalytic hect domain of E6AP reveals a bilobal structure with a broad catalytic cleft at the junction of the two lobes. The cleft consists of conserved residues whose mutation interferes with ubiquitin-thioester bond formation and is the site of Angelman syndrome mutations. The crystal structure of the E6AP hect domain bound to the UbcH7 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) reveals the determinants of E2-E3 specificity and provides insights into the transfer of ubiquitin from the E2 to the E3.

(CNN) -- — Five people were wounded Thursday in an explosion near Al-Azhar University in Cairo's Nasr City neighborhood, according to local media reports.
A bomb disposal team defused a second bomb, al-Masriya state TV reported.
The Nasr City neighborhood is a traditional stronghold of supporters of deposed Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Egypt's interim government officially has declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, blaming it for a recent bombing despite the fact a different organization claimed responsibility for the attack.
The United States objected to the government's assault on the Muslim Brotherhood's reputation.
Thursday's blast comes in the lead-up to Egypt's referendum on a new constitution, which will be held January 14-15.
If passed, the constitution would ban religious parties and put more power in the hands of the military.

POSTED: Monday, January 7, 2013 - 6:45pm
UPDATED: Monday, January 7, 2013 - 6:49pm
BATON ROUGE, LA (NBC33) — The sheriff's office said half a dozen kids have been charged in Saturday's fight. The kids range in age from 13 to 15 years old. The charges include remaining after forbidden, disturbance by fistic encounter, and resisting an officer. There's no word tonight if more charges are expected.
It all started with this picture posted on "Instagram" by a local teen.
"There was no criminal intent there it was simply to have group of people meet up at the mall for the purpose of maybe taking a group picture," Casey Hicks, EBRSO, said.
But what was only supposed to be a meet and greet turned into a "brawl at the mall" causing chaos and confusion.
"Something like this a benign post about meeting up at the mall wouldn't send up any red flags, we have no way of knowing that 200 kids are actually going to respond to this," says Hicks.
The Sheriff's Office works with federal, state and local agencies to monitor the Internet and social media, but with events such as this, they say it's up to the parents.
"Have that conversation have that dialogue with your child that way as a parent you can know if you're bringing them into a potentially dangerous situation," noted Hicks.
That night rumors spread like wildfire through social media - with word of guns and shots fired something officials do not encourage.
"So we really want to caution people, don't spread misinformation don't spread rumors it burst the situation and it hurts the community and it hurts the investigation."
Luckily no one was hurt during this "brawl at the mall," but that might not always be the case.
"Be part of the solution and not the problem speak up."
Late this afternoon the mall of Louisiana released a statement on Saturday's fights: "At Mall of Louisiana, the safety and security of our shoppers are always our top priorities... This Saturday, there was an unexpected large amount of people gathered in the food court due to a social media posting. Based simply upon the size of the crowd, the sheriff's department determined it was necessary to evacuate the mall to further ensure the safety of all shoppers... As part of our efforts and our commitment to public safety, we regularly review our safety program and will amend it as necessary."

Tower Hamlets election: Commons calls on voters to report fears
The Government has called on the people of Tower Hamlets to report any knowledge of wrongdoing over the recent election.
Commons leader Andrew Lansley was speaking after being questioned on the Electoral Commission's investigation into allegations made about the voting process in the borough.
He said Parliament was keeping a close eye on the investigation and urged for findings of the probe to be released soon.
"It is crucial the commission ensures there is a swift investigation into any issues of concern raised in Tower Hamlets to establish the truth and communicate that truth, including through the Minister for Cities and Constitution to this House," he said.
"It enables us to say if anybody in Tower Hamlets themselves have any knowledge of anything which gives them concern about the integrity of the elections, really we do encourage them to ring 101 and contact the police about that."
The Electoral Commission is looking into concerns about intimidation at polling booths as well as why it took the borough over four days to complete the count.
Police have revealed there have been over 80 complaints made to them and yesterday made an arrest in connection with an investigation into voter fraud.
Also speaking in the debate, Poplar and Limehouse MP Jim Fitzpatrick said pointed out recent arrests by the Met Police in connection with the Tower Hamlets election.

Hotels near the Waddesdon Manor (Gardens and Aviary)
Waddesdon Manor (Gardens and Aviary)
Waddesdon Manor Gardens is a fine example of High Victorian gardening, with traditional three-dimensional carpet bedding. The summer months here are spectacular and there's lots to do all year round.
Beth Rothschild, Lord Rothschild's daughter, who studied horticulture at Kew, has been at the centre of the garden's recent modernisation. Talented designers have redesigned existing features.
In 2000, American-born artist John Hubbard devised a water-inspired carpet bedding design, and experts also rejuvenated the original Victorian rose arbour, which is planted with the luscious Miss Alice rose (named after Alice de Rothschild).
Beth Rothschild herself has personally designed a children's garden as well as masterminding an ambitious tree-planting scheme with the help of the famous Michael Lear. Each member of the family has had a copse of trees planted in their honour. Lord Rothschild can admire his wood of black poplars, known as Jacob's Wood, and Beth's mother is given a native English wooded copse, while each of her children and nieces have been given their own wood.
The grandest planting of them all is Ferdinand's Avenue, symbolically linking her son Ferdinand with the Baron Ferdinand who built Waddesdon Manor back in the 19th century. The avenue contains oaks on either side to a distance of 2000 paces (one for each year of the millennium) and on either side of this path the individual family woodlands pan out.
Without doubt, Waddesdon Manor has one of the finest Victorian gardens in the country. Don't miss the Aviary, containing many species of rare bird, and take a picnic as there are plenty of places for visitors to enjoy lunch in the grounds.
