MEDFORD, Ore. — A local brewery got a big delivery and it wasn't hops or barley. It was new equipment for Southern Oregon Brewing.
The three tanks came from Ninkasi and, within a month, will triple the brewery's fermentation size enabling them to put out a lot more product.
The brewery needs it because it just recently expanded to markets in Washington and California. The brewer is also working on a few new beers which will debut next year along with some new packaging.

The heat will peak today and temperatures will trend 5-7 degrees warmer than midweek. Mostly sunny skies are in the forecast across the board although with the instability present, cumulus build ups are likely along the Cascades, in the Basin & over Northern California. A pop-up thunderstorm and a few showers are possible this afternoon in these locations, but overall it will be a mostly dry day.
More clouds will move in for Friday and a better chance for afternoon showers and a few rumbles of thunder along and east of the Cascades. Saturday will bring drier air and more sun. Mostly sunny skies will keep temperatures warm for the first half of the weekend.
By Sunday, another round of clouds will move in and temperatures will cool into Memorial Day. There will likely be a few light showers at the Coastline Monday morning, and some of these showers may travel into Josephine County. Aside from this, the day will be dry and gradually clearing skies are expected.

Review of small press and independent books.

Pages: 1
...then you'll love 'The Whale Road' by Robert Low (2007, Harper Collins). I've come across a lot of wistful comments on various websites recently, reminiscing about Henry Treece's 'Viking's Dawn' and its sequels - well, this is the 18-certificate version, 'Viking's Dawn' with sex, swearing and black magic. It's set in the second half of the 10th century AD, when Christianity is beginning to push back the old gods, and Viking war bands are hiring themselves out as mercenaries across the rest of Europe.
As in Treece's story, the protagonist, Orm Bear-Slayer, is a very young Norseman on his first raiding journey. The tale begins directly after the incident that has just won Orm his name, when the feral white bear that was his father's curse smashed its way through the roof of the hut that Orm was staying in, and according to the story that's already being told, 'brave Orm, a mere boy becoming a man, fought it over the headless body of Freydis the witch-woman. Fought it for a day and a night and had finally driven a spear into its head and a sword into its heart.' Only Orm knows what really happened when the bear broke in, 'a cliff of fur, a rank, wet-smelling shriek of a thing that swung a snake neck with a horror of a head this way and that...' and how it ended up dead and he alive, and he's never, ever telling. On the strength of this spurious reputation, Orm joins the Oathsworn, the raiding band of Einar the Black. The Oathsworn are off on a monastery raid, but they aren't just going a-viking for fun and profit: they have been hired to steal a particular relic for a man who thinks it will lead him to... well, Einar has his own ideas about what his paymaster is looking for, and with the aid of Orm, who can read Latin, he has a plan to get there first.
Robert Low is a re-enactor, and it shows in every gritty line of 'The Whale Road' - this is a man who knows exactly how far you'll get trying to run uphill in a chain-mail hauberk, or fight in a helmet with a full face-plate. The book is true to life and well-researched, as well as being as grim, bloody, gripping and fast-moving as one of Odin's own ravens, and as an ex-re-enactor, an archaeologist and a youthful fan of Thorkell Fairhair myself, I can't recommend it enough.
I love stuff like this (I was a Henry Treece fan) - absolutely lap it up. A member of Wear Valley Writers is currently writing a Viking novel and I love it when we have 'work in progress' nights and I get to hear some of it. Guy Gavriel Kay's tried his hand at Viking stuff, but he doesn't convince the way he does when he writes about Byzantium, so maybe Robert Low is the chap to read. Certainly sounds like it.
Hmm, would you be thinking of 'The Last Light of the Sun', by any chance? I certainly filed that under 'Too Bloody Fey by Half': it reminds me of what the late Diana Wynne Jones had to say about the 'Pan-Celtic Tours' breed of fantasy epics. Another thing that I forgot to praise in my initial review of 'The Whale Road' is the bleak Icelandic saga quality of the plot: Einar does something that could be construed as infringing the oath that binds him and his warband together, and as the situation deteriorates, the plan gets weirder and weirder and people start dying, the Oathsworn start thinking more and more that his luck and moral authority are gone, but they can neither turn on him nor leave, because Einar's disintegration is an illustration of what happens to those who go back on their oath...
Last edited by RDGardner (2011-06-10 16:55:02)
Yes, that would be the one, and your 'Too Bloody Fey by Half' is spot on. It's the only one of Kay's novels I haven't practically learnt off by heart. 'Tigana' is still one of the best novels written by anyone in any genre. Along with 'Fire Upon the Deep' of course, and Vinge has written a sequel so I MUST get that soon. Sorry, drifted into sci-fi for a moment there, but only because it was your review of 'Roadside Picnic' that induced me to buy what has now become a firm favourite.
'The Whale Road' is going on my reading list.
I think the trouble with Guy Gavriel Kay's quasi-Vikings was that he wasn't really interested in them, and despite having one as a viewpoint character, he didn't expend any effort on characterising them, compared to his quasi-Saxons and quasi-Celts. An example of sloppy thinking: at several places during the story, a quasi-Viking meets another quasi-Viking and greets him or her by wishing him or her 'Ingavin's peace'. Now, since the god Ingavin is most notably characterised by one eye and a mead-hall full of dead warriors, I don't think he really specialises in peace, except for a very particular kind, which you would not take very kindly to being wished by someone. This is a mark of an author who really couldn't be bothered.

More reviews by CantMAKEUPmyMlND
I was very excited to try LP's mascara because I've been nothing but happy with all of the other LP products that I own.
The mascara retails for $40US. I applied it to bare lashes (which, I admit are long & pretty full already) and the curl action seemed to actually work a bit. I honestly noticed a difference in the lift factor compared to regular mascara without use of a eyelash curler. The brush was wonderful, full and plush. I could even apply a few coats without getting the spider-lash look.
Then I discovered it flakes. Badly. At first I thought it was because of my "how many coats could I get on before looking scary" (a lot!) test but I applied it the next day, one coat, and the same thing happened! Flakes all over the bottom of my eye! Not what I expected from a $40 mascara!
Overall, the mascara is great in it's application and look. The only downside is the flakes! If the flakes came under control, this would definetly be a 5 lipstick product! continued >>
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is the newest mascara from La Prairie. Don't bother!!!!!! Do not waste your $40.00!!!!!!! Trust me it is NOT worth it!

This paper justifies the need for an integrated approach to building performance assessment and provides examples of the technical appraisals that may then be enabled. The contention is that the use of design tools which focus on a single domain will result in sub-optimum design solutions in terms of indoor air quality, occupant comfort, energy use and environmental impact.

William G. Nelson, M.D., Ph.D. Professor of Oncology, Medicine, Pathology, Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences, Urology Johns Hopkins Medicine |
Dr. Williams received a Ph.D. in Cancer Biology from the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. His thesis work involved the use of prostate cancer preclinical models to conduct some of the earliest solid tumor studies of Velcade: the first proteasome inhibitor in clinical use. Dr. Williams then went on to a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Oncology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. Under the guidance of Dr. Samuel Denmeade, Dr. Williams developed and characterized tumor-activated protoxins, and conducted studies of the role played by prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the pathobiology of prostate cancer.
Since joining the faculty of the James Buchanan Brady Urological Institute, Dr. Williams has established research projects that seek to better understand the biology of prostate cancer, including the following:
The laboratory's overall hypothesis is that a better understanding of prostate cancer's biology, using clinically-relevant disease models, will lead to the discovery of new targets for therapy development.

@purplespark: I read an article about that car/plane. It is called the "Transition". Supposedly, the car/plane has a 20 gallon tank and a 450 mile range. It will reach a speed of 115 mph. The pilot can actually switch from one mode to the other within 30 seconds. The wings will fold up and the engine power will shift from the rear-mounted propeller to the front wheels.
20 hours training time is required for the "Transition". It has two seats. It is hoped that the vehicle will lead to better safety. If you are piloting this car and detect bad weather, you can just fold up the wings and land at the nearest airport and start driving. They are taking deposits now and hope to deliver the first Transition in late 2011.
Back in my days, I only dreamed of us having these futuristic flying cars!

The Functional ResumeFunctional resumes (also called competency-based resumes) are often recommended for those seeking to change careers. Rather than chronological resumes, which list work experience by date and highlight accomplishments from each job, functional resumes emphasize the actual skills rather than the positions held. By matching your skills and abilities to those that the position requires, your resume does a lot of the work for the employer. Another reason for the functional resume is to highlight achievements or qualifications that date quite far back. For example, if you were once the senior teacher at a school, but then took a six year break to have children and ended up taking entry level positions again recently, the functional resume may be for you. Similarly, you may have been ready for a career change a few years ago, and as a result you have not put your best effort forward at your current position. In scenarios where your most recent job placement is not your best reference, the functional resume is a good alternative. Keep in mind that as with any good resume, you should focus on your accomplishments and skills rather than your roles and responsibilities. Employers already know the basic duties of a job. They are more interested in finding out which skill areas you excelled in. Here are the main sections found in a functional resume:
Objective: A career change resume is one of the only types where an objective line may be considered necessary. Without one, a potential employer may question why an ESL teacher is applying for a computer programmer position, or vice versa. However, make sure that your objective does not limit your opportunity at a company or school. If you state that you want to be manager of a bank, your resume may get thrown away before the employer reads your qualifications. Your objective should be one or two short statements matching your desire to the specific employer's needs. The idea that you are hoping to use your transferable skills in the position should also be placed in a cover letter. Here are two sample objectives that you can make your own: Objective 1: Seeking a position in publishing that will maximize my ten years experience in the teaching field. Objective 2: To apply the skills I've gained in my ten years of sales and marketing to obtain a position as an ESL teacher. Qualifications: This section is sometimes referred to as the summary section. With the average resume being reviewed for 20 to 30 seconds, this could be an important part of your resume. In the case of a functional resume, choose 3 of your skills and abilities that match those that the employer is seeking. Reword them in point form bullets beneath your objective line. Work Experience: Listing work experience is optional in a Functional Resume. If you decide to include it, you just need a short bulleted list of your recent places of work and the dates you worked there. (No references) Some experts believe that leaving this part off shows that you have something to hide. If your resume is strong, and you mention your work experience in your skills section, it may not be necessary to include this section. You should also exclude it if you have no work experience, or if you do not want your potential employer to request references from previous ones. Sample Functional Resume/CV

Connector Julieta Talavera first heard about Connectors when we did some preliminary testing of the concept with a small group of New Yorkers a couple of years ago. The idea immediately resonated with her.
"I thought, this is amazing. We need Connectors," the Argentina native says.
She decided to try out an early version of a 3Qs meeting at her local laundromat, and also set up a box at the library where people could write what was stopping them from taking action and why.
While she never got to see the fruits of her efforts there because she soon moved to Malmö, Sweden, to study international relations, Julieta carried the idea of Connectors to her new home.
In Malmö, with the help of her friend Jonathan Ng, she recruited people to participate in a 3Qs meeting by telling people they knew and posting flyers across the city. Their particular interest and focus was people interested in social entrepreneurship and innovation.
By promoting and hosting the 3Qs meeting, "we had an excuse to knock on doors, find interesting people, make friends, share experiences, and learn from each other," she says.
After the initial meeting, they became a support group for their own social innovation projects and then began inviting more people to join the group and speak at their meet-ups. Eventually, they evolved into Connectors Malmö, an organization that encourages connections and collaborations to make Malmö and the world a better place.
They do this in a variety of ways, such as bike tours that introduce people to creative spaces, incubators, and more around town; 24 hour social innovation camps that pair problems with creative problem-solvers; a networking event called the Connectors Salon; a citywide calendar; a map that will visualize and categorize all the resources in the city, from libraries to funding opportunities; and more.
"We help people take their first step," she says. "If you can prove to yourself you can do it once, then the second and third time come along easier. We really try to encourage that."
Recently, they also started the Networking Bank, a database of people willing to share their skills for the common good.
"If you want to do something, you need to collaborate with others. You need to meet other people," she says. "There's no other way."
-Think something like the Connectors Salon or Networking Bank could help your Team? Feel free to reach out to Connectors Malmö for advice on getting started: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Leadsham, Jane E. and Jarvis, Simon M. (2001) Cloning, expression and characterisation of the P2 adenosine transporter of Trypanosoma equiperdum in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In: Molecular Parasitology Meeting XII, 12-16 Sep 2001, Woods Hole, USA. (Unpublished)
Full text not available from this repository.
Trypanosomes are purine auxotrophs, salvaging these molecules from their hosts who synthesise them. The first step in purine salvage is transport of the purine nucleoside or nucleobase across the plasma membrane. One of the high affinity adenosine transporters, P2, is also implicated in drug uptake, loss of the P2 transporter leads to resistance to certain trypanocidal drugs, e.g. melarsoprol. Trypanasoma equiperdum is closely related to T. brucei. It is confined to horses where it is transmitted by venereal contact due to its inability to differentiate into the procyclic form. Cloning of the P2 gene from T. equiperdum was carried out using PCR, based on the T. brucei sequence. Sequencing of a number of clones suggested two alleles were present with two changes at the amino acid level and three silent mutations. Expression of these genes has been carried out in S. cerevisiae, which has no endogenous adenosine transport. In addition we have exploited a haploid yeast strain that lacks the FCY2 gene. In yeast FCY2 is responsible for purine nucleobase transport including adenine. Using this yeast strain we have been able to show directly that adenine is a substrate of the P2 transporter confirming earlier predictions from inhibitor studies carried out in trypanosomes. Work is now continuing on the characterisation of these clones in the yeast expression system with respect to trypanocidal drugs thought to be internalised via this route. A PCR mutant isolated during cloning, with two point mutations, was found to be non-functional. One of these V12D, was within the first predicted transmembrane region. Site-directed mutagenesis of this residue was found to restore function. Supported by the BBSRC

Actress Anita Hassanandani is best remembered for her role in TV shows 'Kkavyanjali', 'Kayamath' and 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'. Though she's been in the television industry for very long and despite the fact that she's not really a superstar, Anita confesses that she is in a happy space. "I am very content with whatever I have today. I am often compared to actors who were launched with me. I feel blessed with whatever I have got so far," says Anita.
Not just on the work front, Anita is on a high in her personal life too. "I am soon going to tie the knot with Rohit Reddy. He is a banker from Goa, but works in Mumbai. He is very supportive — there are times when I don't feel like going for a look test, but he pushes me to go for one. He and his family are happy that I am part of this industry," she smiles.
For someone who was once in a long relationship with an actor (Eijaz Khan) feels that it's better to be with married to someone who is not from the industry. This dusky small screen hottie was in Ahmedabad recently to promote her new show Gutur Gu 2. In the past, she has made several short trips to the city, but hasn't really got much chance to explore it. "I have attended dandiya events in Ahmedabad and I must say the energy level of the city during that season is amazing," she says.
Talking about work, from horror, suspense to saas bahu shows, Anita has done them all. She is now eager to try her hands at comedy. "My current show is completely different from what I have done in the past. I have cried a lot and made people cry too. Now I want them to smile. My jaws literally hurt because I have to constantly laugh while shooting for the show. There are a lot animated moments while shooting for the show, we over act at times too, and this is something that I haven't experienced in the past," she shares.
What does she feel about the mindless comedy shows that have become very common today? "With our hectic lives, a dose of comedy is a must. I feel mindless comedies make you relax — there are times when I come from shooting and watch comedy shows, they really change my mood," she shares.
Seasonal shows on TV seem to be the new flavour of the season. And Anita totally agrees with that. She feels that only shows that have a better connect and content should be made seasonal. "It makes sense of having seasonal shows of popular soaps because people associate to the character and want to see more of them. There are shows that can't be dragged for long and so it is better to end them on time. In the west, seasonal shows are pre-planned and organised, but here they are not planned," says Anita.
With more GECs and daily shows, viewership is divided and there are very few TV superstars left. "Every show had its own flavour in the past, but today everyone blindly just copies a hit formula. This is where the actual concept is lost and people lose interest in the show. This makes it difficult for the audience to remember so many actors or shows," says Anita signing off.

Tiger Woods' Worst Year Ever: 2010 in Pictures
(Tiger story updated with news of his spilt from Golf Digest)
TheStreet) --
From humiliating himself and his sponsors -- and even denting their stock value -- to losing his marriage to the mother of his two children, Tiger Wood's path to self-destruction in 2010 startled the world.
Throughout 2010, TheStreet documented, in pictures, the year in the life of the golfing great -- a year that Tiger and his remaining sponsors are hoping that everyone will one day forget.
In early 2010, U.C Davis economics professors conducted a study that indicated that the Tiger Woods scandal not only hurt the stock market value of his sponsors, but also that of his sponsors' celebrity-endorsement-heavy competitors. "It appears that the scandal sent a negative market-wide signal about the reputation risk associated with celebrity endorsements," UC Davis economics professors Christopher Knittel and Victor Stango said in their report.
Knittel later told the TheStreet that as the Tiger scandal erupted, some consumers who used to buy from Nike (NKE - Get Report) Golf began buying from Ping or Callaway Golf Company (ELY) instead.
In 2010, Bloomberg also reported that several retailers had seen Tiger's Nike apparel line drop in sales along with his performance. Tiger won no tournaments in 2010 and at one point fell to 83rd place on the PGA Tour money list.
Bloomberg reported that retailers such as Golfsmith International (GOLF), Roger Dunn Golf Shops and Golf Discount Superstore have all seen a softening of the apparel line's sales even as golf apparel sales are generally heating up. An analyst told Bloomberg that Nike derives roughly $650 million of its sales from the company's golf-related products. Both data and anecdotal evidence suggests a decline in Tiger's Nike apparel line. Bloomberg reported that Golfsmith's 76 stores saw the line's volume fall 7.5% in the first half of the year from the year ago period, while total golf apparel sales grew 11%. The report added that Golf Discount Superstore said it's definitely witnessed the brand's erosion and that Roger Dunn said Tiger's line is pretty much the only apparel line that isn't heating up in sales at its stores. Market Overview It was a rough year for Tiger on all fronts -- not only did he experience what many see as the lowest point of his career, Tiger's marriage officially dissolved.

BREAKING NEWS: Republican in NY House race suspends campaign
Posted By MB Snow On October 31, 2009 @ 12:12 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
ALBANY, N.Y. — Republican Dierdre Scozzafava (sko-zuh-FAH'-vuh) has suspended her campaign for the New York House and is encouraging supporters to embrace Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman.
Campaign spokesman Matt Burns says she thinks dropping out of the 23rd Congressional District race is in the best interests of the party.
The announcement comes after a Siena College poll found she was in third place with 20 percent of the vote in the heavily Republican district, while Hoffman and Democratic nominee Bill Owens were too close to call with 35 percent and 36 percent, respectively.
The race has pitted conservative and moderate wings of the Republican Party against each other. Hoffman has been backed by prominent Republicans like former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
The election is Tuesday.

Write a ReviewGreat looking fixture
By Helen Y. from South Pasadena, CA on Aug 04, 2010
Sturdy, attractive and well made. The brushed nickle finish looks great with the other brushed nickle accessories in the new bathroom. The length is perfect over the mirrors above each sink. I like the fact that the fixture can point up or down which allows greater flexibility for lighting the room.

I want to hear which you think is better, real reasons please. Not just, well I think Mac is stupid and for hipsters..or Aw PCs are for poor people..or crap like that. Thank you :)
bingo. There are so many PC users out there who desperately want to justify their usage of crap bloatware, ugly interface, unsympathetic software and overall impoverished user-experience.
My Mac was bought online and I've never had any issue getting things taken care of in the store, nor have I had bad customer service. Dealing with the customer service for my Alienware is a different story.
I've had Macs since the 90's - I've NEVER had one crash. unlike Windows machines, where rebooting is SOP.
Another possibility is that we Mac users are so pleased with what we have, that we want to shout it from the rooftops, eliminating shutting "the fuck up" as an optiion --
errmmm, why would they go on about it if the user-experience was not infinitely better. I use both and there is simply no comparison.
This is from the OurBedOfNails.com blog. It covers the Apple product line in general so it gets into Android as well, since Apple's main competitor in the cell phone world is Google.
Apple Creaks Along Into Its Late Middle Age
If you had asked anyone even just a decade ago if Apple Computers would become the richest corporation in history, you'd have received a huge round of guffaws from a skeptical financial community. Overthrow the likes of Exxon? You need to get your head examined.
But then Steve Jobs got busy and along came items like the iPod, iPhone, and iPad, and of course their anchor product, the MacBook laptop computer. Their interfaces are well-known for their ease of use, which might be described as "so easy, a caveman can use it." Apple users have actually been encouraged to be proud of NOT knowing how a computer works on the inside. As a long-time Windows user, I know a bit about the hardware and softwRE architecture of my computers. Were I an Apple user, I'd be happily ignorant of things like drivers, DLL's,
Apple users have smugly asserted that their computers are immune to viruses and malware. That's only true to a degree, and mostly because the Apple user has tended to be a small target, a relatively poor student or a small business. For every Mac, it's been estimated there are around seven PC's out there. If you're shooting critters against the side of a barn, it's much easier to hit a fox than a rat. Relatively speaking, Mac's simply haven't been worth the effort of the bad guys.
There has been a belief propagated by Apple users that Apple hardware is better and more reliable than that of its PC rivals, but that simply isn't true. Apple computers are made in the same Chinese factories making HP, Dell, and other PC's. Apples arrive DOA and fail at much the same rate as Windows machines. Its so-called "geniuses" offering Apple support in the stores are the same sort of guys working down the street at the computer repair store. Some good, some brilliant, and some totally incompetent.
However, that is changing and now Mac users should be running anti-bad guys software, too.
If Apple only made computers, it wouldn't be the success it is. Steve Jobs steered Apple in totally new directions with its non-computer products, especially the iPhone at first, but then the iPad.
Speaking of software, while we talk in terms of Mac's, iPods, iPhones, and iPads, it's really the software which has made Apple the success it is. As I said, the hardware is rather pedestrian and not all that different from what you can get in the Windows world. It has a certain consistent look to it because if there's one area where Apple wins hands down, it's in the consistency of their products appearance. They all look sleek and well-made, but that's mostly just for show. Looking better doesn't make them better.
More than anything else, it's been the iPhone which has propelled Apple to become the richest corporation in the world. However, along comes Google with its Android phones. Suddenly, the iPhone doesn't look like the unique world-beater it once was, and I'm not even referring to Steve Jobs' "Your holding the phone the wrong way" defense of his phone having a poor reception problem and dropping lots of calls.
Take my phone for example, it's an HTC EVO 4G 3D. Yes, it does take actual 3D photos and videos viewable on the phone itself. No iPhone can do that yet. Its 4.3″ display is noticeably larger than the iPhone's 3.5″ display. The pixel density on the iPhone is technically better, but most people won't notice the difference unless the phones are actually displaying the same image side-by-side.
Yes, Apple phones have quite a few more apps than Android phones, but many of those apps overlap each other with slight differences in features. The more desirable ones are also available for Android phones, or else there's an equivalent or better one. Perhaps the several Siri-like programs for Android aren't quite as good yet, but then Siri isn't all that good, either. Entire blogs are devoted to the dumb things Siri sometimes says. And let's face it, what can Siri tell you that you can't find quickly and with better accuracy using software that isn't voice-based?
Apple's browser, Safari, is just okay. Most Apple users end up with Firefox or, embarrassingly to Apple, Google's Chrome as their everyday browser.
And let's not even get into the Apple Maps stumble, which forced Apple to go back to the maps application of its archrival, Google Maps. In case you don't know what the problems were, this page should be good for some laughs.
Apple loses more market share to Android phones every day, and there are no rumors of any sort of killer advance to be offered in opposition to Android. And now we have the entry of phones and tablets running neither Apple's OS nor Android but Windows. The Windows phones are slow to take off, but Windows is a very familiar OS, so expect Windows phones to gain market share as time goes by, if only gradually.
And speaking of Windows, it must be noted that the usual jab against Windows versions of the past, that it was buggy and crashed a lot, isn't heard so much anymore because Microsoft has made a huge and very successful effort to provide a dependable OS. Starting with Vista, and even more so with improvements of Windows 7, it now works quite well with minimal annoyance, and what annoyances are left are usually easily swept away. Windows 8 is taking off a bit slower than Microshoped, but that is largely due to the radically different interface which takes a little time to learn to use effectively. Time will tell if Windows 8 works well enough on a small screen to penetrate the smartphone market, though.
And much the same is happening in the Android world with a plethora of tablets with advanced features being offered by a variety of competitors. You see, Android is an open system. Unlike Apple's almost military control over its hardware, software, and apps, Android is open with Google neither approving nor disapproving of the products Android developers come up with. Each new update of the iPad so far is just an upgrade of the same basic design, whereas Android tablets offer a wide variety of options and features offering some real choices.
At one end consider the 7″ cameraless Nook HD which, along with its new big brother the HD+, has a display resolution about equal to the "Retina Display" touted on the latest iPads, but with a detuned and Nookified version of Android designed to make it a very fancy Barnes & Noble-oriented eReader with some Android features. At the far other end you have the Google Nexus 10 with front and back cameras as well as a 2560 x 1600 display resolution leaving the iPad's 2048 x 1536 and the Nook HD+'s 1900×1280 display resolutions in the dust and at a price, $399, which makes it a far better value than the iPad. (It should be noted that the Nook HD+ has a 9″ display not the 10″ of the iPad and Nexus 10, making its resolution quite comparable.)
There is talk of an Apple watch on the horizon, with supposed (or speculated) features like seeing text messages and getting GPS-based local information on one's wrist. Apple under Jobs was known for, as some have said, "products we didn't know we needed until we saw them." Frequently, those needs have been along the lines of needing to be an early adopter of new technologies, but not always. The iPhone was more than merely cool. It made many people's lives easier and better. It remains to be seen if a high-tech wristwatch can do that. Perhaps if you can use it to make voice calls or conduct voice-directed text messaging while driving. Without something like that, it might turn into one of Apple's many (but easily forgotten) flops.
At this time, Google is gaining ground on Apple. For a long time I went with PC's rather than Macbooks and Android phones rather than iPhones for fear that Apple was taking over the world. Now, it's starting to look like Google might do that instead. At least Google is an open system and doesn't try to manage things to trap the world into using its own products—or those it approves—exclusively. Many of us view that sort of thing as belonging within our own sphere of control, not that of the device's manufacturer.
I'm a lot more comfortable with Google than Apple, so I'm not unhappy to see Apple going into gradual decline.
On the other hand, Apple has surprised us before, but with Steve Jobs at the helm of product imagining and development. He may have left a couple projects yet to be seen in the development stage, and we may see a few of those in the next few years.
The question is, can Apple keep up with Google and Microsoft without Steve Jobs. I don't think so.
As a counter to the gripes about the Apple map stuff, sometime between last June and today, Google maps finally quit labeling US-24 through Colorado Springs, Colorado as "US-24 in Illinois."
They are well known for showing highway designators that haven't existed in 50 years even when they do have the right state. Just for instance "State Highway 217" hasn't existed since 1964 at the latest.
For a lot of us, while Macs are okay, it's the price problem that keeps us from being Mac users. I can go to TigerDirect.com any day of the week and find fairly nice little computers, comparable in performance to a Macbook, at 1/2 to 1/3 the price. But then Mac blindsides you with oddball connectors and devices that do the same thing as a PC equivalant at 2 to 3 times the price. Your Mac routers run $75-$265 ($265?!!!). By contrast, I'm using a perfectly good (and equivalent wireless "n") $28 Netgear router.
It's pretty clear how Apple became (temporarily) the richest corporation in the world: a stupid user base consisting of early adopter spendthrifts.
In a few years, Samsung may usurp Apple's place in the high tech personal technology world.
If I had a specific CPU feature on my current system I would have been able to boot and compare Windows 7, Windows 8, Mac OS X, and LInux. As it is I cannot add OS X to the list right now (though I'm planning a system upgrade). I already multiboot the rest. As a systems programmer who has been at this since the 1980s I find the the current Mac operating system pleasant enough, but for development work it's cost prohibitive for me to acquire the necessary hardware/software/documentation to get started at the moment. Apple simply prices themselves out of a competitive advantage. If they got rid of the monopolistic practices they would find themselves with a much larger available software/hardware base for their customers. As it is it's only their "i" products that's making them the lion's share of their profits. I have an insider that admits that Apple markets their products in a manner that promotes arrogance among the users. It appeals to people based on emotional elements rather than technical capability.
On the other hand, Linux has a different following that follows a simple creed: "Microsoft = evil". They simply go with a belief that has grown increasingly dated and absurd. I recently found it amazing that when I tried the trial version of Windows 8 Enterprise Edition that it actually booted and was ready faster than the latest build of Ubuntu Linux! Under the hood Windows 7 and 8 are vastly different beasts with only a cosmetic layer between them when you are in desktop mode. I also found 8 to be more stable. I did get it to "blue screen", but what it displayed was more elegant and friendly (but with less helpful information). Mac OS X and Ubuntu I have both found to have a problem with system crashes - they both tend to literally freeze the computer requiring a power off/on cycle to recover.
Linux users often tend to be younger than myself and tend to think line commands are the way to go not realizing why operating system developers dropped that interface as the primary means of system control in favor of GUIs. Why? Because of the visual nature of human thinking and memory. It also protects against typographic errors (which can be a disaster!) and having to recall a long list of obtuse (and often cryptic) command strings. Mac OS X and Windows (all versions) still retain a command line option because often software developers implement command line only settings for their products (probably those who develop first under Linux!)
RE: "Mac OS X and Ubuntu I have both found to have a problem with system crashes - they both tend to literally freeze the computer requiring a power off/on cycle to recover."
I've used OS X since it first came out, and I have never encountered this problem.
I used to do volunteer service work at an Einstein Bros coffee shop in St. Louis that was operated by the downtown Marriott hotel. I was good friends of the store manager and I could use the machines without prior purchase and often from store open to store close. They had a couple of Macs running OS X and I would frequently use them to to play the game RuneScape - this particular Java/browser game I found could literally lock the computer up solid. And it happened quite frequently. When the cursor would no longer respond to any mouse movement,no action of the keyboard would prompt any response, and none of the windows or software that were supposed to be active were doing anything - not even the "pinwheel" cursor present to indicate that at least the computer was doing something, I'd say it was quite locked up. And it happened across both machines. This not the only software that caused such lockups either, but I'm at a loss so many years later to identify all of the culprits. I think the last version that was installed was Mountain Lion at the time. It's likely because of the Linux-type OS core it uses (and I did access the command prompt on those machines because sometimes I would do diagnostic work that way so felt often like I WAS on Linux despite Apple's claims otherwise :p )
I don't know what you are doing with your machine, but I tend to push mine to their max when I can - I'm a game and software developer and I tend make machines scream and beg for mercy. :D
On the other hand, Linux has a different following that follows a simple creed: "Microsoft = evil". They simply go with a belief that has grown increasingly dated and absurd.
The word 'creed' implies a kind of irrational belief, as if Microsoft did not have a long history of open warfare against Linux and the open source software community. That history includes years of financial backing for the SCO unix litigation to seize control of Linux based on bogus allegations of copyright infringement.
Microsoft's recent efforts include a push to get PC hardware makers to ensure their products boot Windows and nothing else. This is "dated" enough for the Linux community to realign resources at the highest levels to deal with the issue as recently as last week, and "absurd" enough to present a potentially existential threat to the future of Linux unless properly handled.
I recently found it amazing that when I tried the trial version of Windows 8 Enterprise Edition that it actually booted and was ready faster than the latest build of Ubuntu Linux!
If you say so. In a production server environment, with all the security that has to load in Windows 8, in addition to the GUI, and then all the kitchen sink crap you can't shut off? I'll believe that when I see it.
I'll take Debian or CentOS over Windows 8 Enterprise Whatever anytime. There is a reason the busiest web sites in the world, in addition to over 85% of the world's web servers overall, aren't running Windows. And it's not because Windows is faster.
Ubuntu I have both found to have a problem with system crashes - they both tend to literally freeze the computer requiring a power off/on cycle to recover.
Again, if you say so.
I've seen applications crash on Linux but never once have I seen Linux crash or hang on a system that met the minimum requirements to run it. As a matter of technical excellence, that's impressive as hell, so I'll say it again at risk of belaboring the point.
Never once, in over 250,000 data center server operating hours I have observed, have I ever known a Linux server to crash or hang due to an operating system fault.
Regarding Windows? Well, if you can't say something nice...
Linux users often tend to be younger than myself and tend to think line commands are the way to go not realizing why operating system developers dropped that interface as the primary means of system control in favor of GUIs.
I haven't found this to be the case at all. Most of the Linux users I encounter are aged 35 and up, and tend to be throwbacks from the old Internet, or people with a compsci or ecomm background (like yours truly). It's also a common misconception that Linux requires a command line interface. It doesn't. Linux has desktop environments that are virtually identical to OSX, multiple versions of Windows, and several other options you can't get anywhere else. Linux is easy to use. My daughter started using Linux when she was a toddler. My 87-year-old aunt uses it too. I gave her one lesson and said call anytime if you need help. She's never needed it.
Mac OS X and Windows (all versions) still retain a command line option because often software developers implement command line only settings for their products (probably those who develop first under Linux!)
Command lines are so much faster and more powerful for some tasks. Systems where speed is at an absolute premium (such as with busy web servers) shed the GUI and leave the bare essentials to squeeze out as much performance as possible.

OTK Associates To Nominate Directors To Morgans Hotel Board
OTK Associates LLC, the largest shareholder of Morgans Hotel Group Co. (Nasdaq: MHGC) with 13.9% of the outstanding common stock of the company, today disclosed that it intends to nominate a slate of seven candidates to the company's board of directors and notified the company of its intent in a letter on March 15, 2013. Morgans' 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders is scheduled to be held on May 15, 2013.
OTK Associates also disclosed a letter to MHGC shareholders outlining why it believes a reconfiguration of the Board is urgently needed. The full text of the letter follows:
March 18, 2013
Dear Fellow Stockholders,
We are writing to inform you that on Friday, March 15, OTK Associates, LLC delivered notice to Morgans Hotel Group of its intent to nominate seven qualified candidates to the company's board of directors at the upcoming annual meeting of stockholders on May 15, 2013. As the company's largest stockholder, with a 13.9% ownership stake or 4,500,000 common shares of Morgans, we are seeking your support to elect directors that have the skills and experience necessary to either grow the business and return the company to profitability or to appropriately evaluate and pursue strategic alternatives in a disinterested fashion. We are nominating a slate of directors that brings significant lodging industry expertise, capital markets experience and superior hotel operating acumen. We strongly believe that a reconfigured board is a prerequisite for improving the company's financial performance and competitive position, and for harvesting additional value from its existing asset base. OTK is a partnership between families that have a demonstrated track record of creating value in the real estate and lodging industries. OTK acquired its position in Morgans more than five years ago and has not sold any shares since that time. During this period, OTK has observed as various management teams and board members squandered resources and failed to capitalize on the extraordinary brand value of the company. OTK believes that new leadership is urgently needed to protect the interests of common stockholders and maximize stockholder value going forward, and we believe the majority of Morgans' common stockholders will agree.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I need help finding a good translator
I work as an EMT in the city, and lately more and more patients speak only speak spanish. I need a good translator where i can turn it on, set my phone down, have the patient speak spanish, but then the app translate it to english, and then have me speak english and it translate spanish. I know thats alot to ask for, but does anyone have any ideas? Please and thank you

Re: I need help finding a good translator
I don't know about the "set it down" part but Voice Translator works well. And translates many languages including Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Spanish (EU) and Spanish (US), Thai, Russian etc. Just not sure how close the person speaking needs to be to handset. Ambient sounds during emergencies may interfere with speakerphone.

Linux Serial Consoles for Servers and Clusters
Listing 3. lilo.conf with Serial Console Support
serial=0,9600n8 boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b prompt timeout=50 message=/boot/message linear default=Linux image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 label=2.4.20-8 read-only initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.20-8.img append="root=LABEL=/ console=ttyS0,9600n8"
SYSLINUX is a bootloader designed for use with DOS/FAT formatted bootable floppies. Red Hat/Fedora Core Linux uses SYSLINUX for both the install boot and rescue floppies. In order to install or recover from boot floppies over serial console, the floppies need to be modified. We have added the console= and text directive to the append line, and we have removed the extra boot selections present in Red Hat's original file. The first line initializes and directs SYSLINUX to use serial port 0 (aka /dev/ttyS0) and defaults to 9600n8. Using this modified boot floppy, we can install the OS over the serial console. Red Hat's text installation option works quite nicely this way. Using the above modifications, you can convert any SYSLINUX boot floppy to use serial consoles. This procedure also works for ISOLINUX, which is a spinoff of SYSLINUX used on bootable CD-ROMs.
Listing 4. syslinux.cfg File Configured for Serial Console
serial 0 default Linux prompt 1 timeout 100 label Linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img lang= text \ devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=8192 \ console=ttyS0,9600n8
As stated before, the console can become a login terminal after the system is up. For this to happen, the getty entries in /etc/inittab must be modified. The standard /etc/inittab starts mingetty on virtual consoles only. Because mingetty is not suitable for serial terminals, we must use something else. Many getty-type programs are available, but agetty is included with almost every Linux distribution, so we use it. Also, make sure the system boots to nongraphical mode, normally runlevel 3. Some Linux distributions default to an X login, usually at runlevel 5, if any X packages were installed. The default runlevel is determined on the initdefault line. To enable agetty on serial lines, you can modify the initdefault line in /etc/inittab:
and add a line for agetty:
co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS0 9600 vt100
This tells agetty to start waiting for logins on /dev/ttyS0 at 9,600bps, using vt100 terminal emulation. You may want to keep the original mingetty entries to allow a directly attached keyboard and monitor to be used for logins. If not, simply comment them out. Where root can log in from is controlled strictly; in order for root to log in from ttyS0, you must add the device to the /etc/securetty file.
Finally, if your system has created a /etc/ioctl.save file, delete or rename it. This file is used to save console settings between reboots. If the system was booted using a directly attached keyboard and monitor, this file attempts to restore improper settings. A new one is created when you reboot using the serial console.
Red Hat's bootup scripts use escape sequences, so the OK, PASS and FAIL messages show up in color. This can confuse serial consoles, so it is best to disable it. Simply modify /etc/sysconfig/init, and change the BOOTUP= line to say BOOTUP=serial. This will prevent the use of color messages.
Serial cabling can cause some confusion. Basically, there are two kinds of serial ports, DCE (Data Communication Equipment) and DTE (Data Terminal Equipment). The ports differ in how specific signals are connected to pins on the connector. Data communication with serial ports uses separate transmit and receive wires, so when connecting two pieces of equipment together, one must make sure the transmit wire on one side connects to the receive wire on the other side. As long as you are connecting a DCE device to a DTE device you can use a regular straight-through cable, where each pin is connected to the same pin on the other side of the cable. If you are connecting devices of the same type, however, you must use a special cable or adapter, called a null modem, so the signals are swapped properly. DTE devices usually are terminals, computers and printers. DCE devices are designed to connect directly to computers, such as modems and serial mice.
In addition to the data transmit and receive wires, a number of handshaking signals are used to control the flow of data, so one side is not talking too fast for the other to understand. These signals also must be swapped by the null modem. To add to the confusion, two popular connectors are in use for serial ports, the 9-pin DB9 and the 25-pin DB25. These can come in both male and female varieties. In almost every case, the devices used for serial consoles (terminals, computers and console servers) are all DTE, which means you need a null modem of some sort. These are available in the form of adapters and cables. Most off-the-shelf units work fine, but if you want to solder your own, check the on-line Resources section for links to pinouts and cable diagrams.

Even though it was written 3 years ago, still want to say thank you for this helpful article.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.
