US 20060063563 A1 Abstract A device and system for remotely setting the ringer/vibrate/silent modes and other operations of cell phones and beepers in public areas. It has become routine that people are asked to shut off the ringers of their cell phones in public places such as movie theaters, libraries, performances, lectures, courthouses, classes, work places, meetings, auditoriums etc. Some places, such as libraries, have started to fine cell phone users when their cell phone ringer goes off. The invention automatically sets cell phones to comply with settings necessary for particular public areas. This is a convenience for people with cell phones who will no longer need to be reminded to comply with ringer modes in public areas. It is also a convenience for other people in a public area who would be annoyed by people with cell phones who neglected to shut off ringers. Finally it frees organizers of the theater or public area from constantly needing to remind people with cell phones to turn off cell phone ringers. A significant feature of the invention is the ability to remotely control cell phone type devices based on locations such as public areas. This type of control over cell phone type devices offers additional advantages for safe operation in airplanes and or cars.
Claims(12) 1. A system comprising of a cell phone, beeper, PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), computer, or notebook computer that normally receives a signal and:
a) accepts a signal for setting ringer, vibrate, text only and or on/off modes using the existing receiver or a new/alternate receiver; b) stores device settings such as ringer mode when passing a remote signal upon entering a public place; c) alerts people of changes made to device settings using beeps, sounds, messages, or vibrations upon entering or exiting a public area; d) sets the device sound on or off according to a remote signal; e) sets the device ringer and or beep mode to on or off according to a remote signal; f) sets the vibrate or silent mode to on or off according to a remote signal; g) sets the volume according to a remote signal; h) sets the device startup sound to on or off according to a remote signal; i) sets the device on or off according to a remote signal; j) controls all device operations such as putting calls on hold and relaying messages to the caller; k) resets the device to its previous state or settings in memory upon exiting a public place and passing by a remote signal; l) stores calls and caller ID's of all missed calls during the time that the cell phone was in a public place; m) alerts people via beeps, sound, messages, or vibrations of calls received when exiting a public area; n) includes a device signal receiver, which may be a separate receiver from the device's own signal receiver, which controls functions and settings of the device. 2. Apparatus according to
a) a means of transmitting a signal to the devices of b) a probe, proximity sensor, messaging transmitter, GPS (Global Positioning Signal), radio, digital, analog, or electronic signal based on (a); c) a transmitter of (b) located at the entrance and exits of public areas that sets the modes and settings of the device of d) an alternative transmitted signal that encompasses the general area of the public area. 3. A system according to
a) a system to alert callers through automated messages, voice messages or text that the call recipient is in a public area; b) a system where the call recipient can press a button or select from a menu to alert the caller with automated messages, voice messages or text that the call recipient will take the call upon leaving the public area; c) a system that places the call on hold while the call recipient moves to a different location according to (b). 4. A system according to
a) a method for accepting emergency calls via preset emergency caller ID lists; b) an override switch, button or menu to prevent setting the cell phone modes with a remote signal. 5. A system according to

10. A system, comprising:
a) a predefined geographical zone; b) means for issuing signals, which are effective to disable annunciators on electronic devices, which enter the zone. 11. System according to
12. System according to
Description The invention concerns setting the ringer and silent modes of cell phones and beepers in public places. The invention concerns the setting of these modes remotely by entering or exiting public places such as theaters, libraries, and auditoriums. Cell phones have become a common part of everyday life. They represent a convenience for the user. People take their cell phones with them to many different places, including public areas such as schools, movie theaters, libraries, auditoriums, speeches, etc. When cell phones or beepers ring in public places, other people get annoyed. Sometimes serious disturbances are caused when people get upset. The situation has become so common that movie theaters constantly remind people to turn their cell phone ringers off by setting them to silent or vibrate mode. People giving speeches or performances ask that cell phone ringers be shut off due to the obvious distraction. Libraries have begun fining people if their cell phone ringers go off. Even when people comply with the request to set their cell phones to vibrate, the user is not usually able to get to a non-public area in time to take the call. Also, some people forget to reset their phone to ringer mode upon exiting a public area and end up missing calls. Some people are calling for further legislation of cell phone use in public areas and airplanes. Cell phone use upon airplanes represents an even more serious concern due to the possibility of interacting with airplane instrumentation during takeoff and landing. There are even times that the cell phone user wants the cell phone ringer turned off routinely. At places of work, people usually set their cell phones to vibrate in order to avoid bothering coworkers. It can be a hassle to remember to constantly set and unset the ringer when going to and leaving work respectively. Missed calls can occur when users forget to turn the ringer back on. In one form of the invention, transmitter probes are placed at the entrance and exits of public areas. Signs inform users that cell phones and beepers will be set to silent, vibrate, or text only mode while in the public area. When a cell phone user passes by the transmitters for the first time in a public place, the cell phones stores the current �entrance� mode of the phone and then sets the mode to silent. Upon exiting the public place, the cell phone user passes by a transmitter that sets the cell phone back to its �entrance� or stored mode. In one form of the invention, the cell phone user can preset automated messages to anyone that calls while the user is in a public place. Also, the cell phone user can respond to any calls received in silent mode by selecting a key. An automated message says that the call recipient is in a public area and is moving to an area where the call can be taken. The call is then placed on hold while the user moves to a new location. The call can then be taken by pressing a keypad button. The invention provides for a remote or external method of controlling cell phone modes or operation based on location. The locations are public areas where cell phones need to automatically be switched between ringer and silent modes. A cell phone device is used for illustration purposes, but the device could be a beeper, PDA (Personal Digital Assistants), computer, or notebook computer that receives a signal. When a cell phone user passes by any probe, in any direction, the cell phone mode is switched from its previous state. A sign on the entrances announces that the settings are being made. The control inside a cell phone responds to wall-mounted transmitters and signals in order to activate or deactivate the cell phone ringer as appropriate. The cell phone could be preset to alert, beep, vibrate or do nothing when passing through areas where the probe is switching settings. The cell phone can be preset such that vibrate mode, text only mode, or some other form of silent mode is used in public areas. The cell phone is either set from silent mode to ringer mode, or ringer mode to silent mode. The cell phone switches between public-area mode and non-public area mode every time it passes a signal probe. The probes can be any type of trigger or transducer such as a proximity sensor, messaging transmitter, GPS (Global Positioning Signal), radio, digital, analog, or electronic based signal transmitter. The reach or field of the transmitter can be varied to the particular entrance or event. The probes work to send signals to multiple cell phones passing by at the same time. Also, bi-directional field probes can be used as well as more than one probe at an entrance or exit to identify if a cell phone is entering or exiting a public area. If there is more than one probe per exit, the order of signals from the probes can indicate that a person is entering or exiting the theater. In another form of the invention, a general area field transmitter can be used to capture the area of the public area. Only one transmitter is needed in the entire public area and the cell phone is set to silent mode while within the field. A variety of mechanisms are available to perform the function of the trigger or transmitter probe. One example adapts the technology used to automatically set the time on cell phones as the phone travels through different time zones. The location of the cell phone is used to set the time of the cell phone. This invention sets the ringer/vibrate/silent mode of the phone based on location. Other examples of hardware that can perform the function of the trigger mechanism are RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) devices from Motorola, Speedpass Cards that set Mobile Gas Pumps, GPS systems, Fastlane/EZ-Pass Transponder type devices for drive thru tolls, proximity key cards used to enter buildings, and other wireless or remote systems. If a cell phone receives a call while in a public area, the caller can be informed by preset messages that the call recipient is in a public area. If the call recipient selects a button or menu, then another automated message can inform the caller that the call recipient is moving to another area to take the call. This allows the call recipient to put the call on hold instead of having to start speaking while still in the public area. Other possibilities include allowing callers to perform emergency breakthroughs to activate the ringer after the caller acknowledges a message that the call recipient is in a public area. Settings can be made which dictate that a predefined emergency ring cannot go off for a specific amount of time after the call. This could allow times, such as one minute, for the call recipient to reach a non-public location before the ringer will go off. There can also be other control features for the cell phone. The cell phone can contain a switch, button, or menu that allows a person to select the type of silent mode that should be used. This can be vibrate, text only, or picture modes when inside a public area. Additional controls could prevent the remote signal from shutting off the ringer. This can be done for users who require immediate alerts to emergencies. Also, a preset list of caller ID's can be entered to allow ringer calls from high priority callers. This allows a user to retain control of the phone while still allowing the convenience afforded by the invention for all other lower priority calls while in a public area. In any case, the phone can still be used to call out. Use of cell phones on airplanes has been a concern due to the effect of cell phone interference with airplane instrumentation. A form of the invention can be used to control whether a cell phone is on or off, or can be turned on. This is primarily an issue while in an airplane during takeoff or landings. The pilot can control whether or not cell phones can operate or be powered on. This type of control over cell phones may be legislated for significant risk areas such as airplanes. The possibility of extending this type of control to cars also exists. This can prevent cell phones from being used in cars while they are moving. The actual signal can be received which alerts the cell phone user to a call. However, no communication can take place while the car is moving. Other applications of remotely controlling a cell phone on or off include test centers, game shows, and classrooms. This can be done to prevent passing information and text messages between people. In one form of the invention, a geographic area, such as a movie theatre, library, etc., is defined in which unnecessary noise is prohibited. People may transport devices that issue audible signals into the area. The invention detects entry of the devices into the area, and disables the audible signals. Also, the invention can detect exit of the devices from the area, and re-enable the audible signals. It is understood that variations of the idea could be made without changing the true spirit of the idea. Examples of such variations include remotely controlling cell phone modes using computer transmitters, other cell phones, or phone calls to a cell phone. The invention is for control over cell phone type devices based on locations and areas. This type of control extends to operation in airplanes and or cars. Referenced by

Rosemary Beach is quickly becoming a favorite destination of mine… and I've never actually been there. Every time I come across a wedding at this Floridan venue, I'm awe struck. And sure enough, with this gorgeous blush and gold soiree planned by Christina Gillon, I'm mesmerized with the romance and beauty, captured by Leslie Hollingsworth. See why I'm so obsessed right this way.
From The Bride… Our wedding day was everything I had dreamed of and so much more. From the perfect wedding day weather (after a few very cold days!) to dancing and laughing with our closest family and friends all weekend – it was a dream.
Richard & I had discussed a Caribbean destination wedding but we couldn't find anything that quite fit. We also knew with three sets of grandparents they would not be keen to the idea of flying. Therefore we settled on finding something within driving distance from our home in Jacksonville Beach and the rest of our family in central Florida – and the hunt began!
I envisioned an indoor ceremony with an outdoor tented reception overlooking the beach since the beginning. I stumbled upon Rosemary Beach (on SMP where else!) and it was beyond ideal. We drove the six hours from Jacksonville two days later and fell in love. After seeing the sprawling green lawns overlooking the picture perfect white sand beach, roaming the idyllic town and visiting the quaint town hall we were sold.
I had an idea in my head of a palette filled with blush and gold, lush flowers and vintage touches. It all came together when I bought my glitzy gatsby-esque Modern Trousseau gown and started working with my amazingly talented coordinator Christina and Designer/Florist Brian of Myrtie Blue. Brian helped bring my vision to life and created the most spectacular yet intimate layout for our reception filled with three tents, a romantic sequined sweetheart table, glimmering bulb lighting over an open air dance floor, vintage lounge furniture, delicate sheer table runners, lush centerpieces and the most gorgeous entrance complete with draped curtains and wooden lamp posts. Seeing the finished product after a year of planning and dreaming I felt like the luckiest girl in the world and was completely blown away.
My vendors created a paramount atmosphere for the day. Townsend Catering delivered the most delicious meal I have ever devoured as well as above and beyond service. Bay Kings Band played just about every song on my request list, had everyone on the dance floor until the last song and my guests are STILL talking about how amazing they were. My photographer Leslie was there to capture it all in the most breathtaking photos and even there to bustle my gown! Of course my coordinator Christina was one step ahead of me from beginning to end and I can not possibly rave about her enough.
One of my favorite details from the reception was our escort display. While discussing how to show off our seating arrangements many ideas were thrown around until we settled on a large mirror. This was a fete for 200 guests but Brian more than delivered! I fell in love with the mirror concept and was dying to use more. I ended up using mirrors from our home for additional displays. My favorite was my late grandmother's mirror used to display our cupcake flavors!
I tried to personalize as many details as possible. We wrapped my bouquet with a blessed rosary from my aunts, my great grandmother's brooch and the first piece of jewelry Richard ever bought me, a small heart necklace. At the reception we used my mother-in-law's cake stands, displayed our grandparents wedding photos next to the guest book and brought in a local band as well as brews from Jacksonville. My creative mother-in-law also made our invitations. She created a stunning shadow box masterpiece that blew every lucky recipient away. She also designed and printed our programs and menus AND made my bridesmaids sparkly belts!
There are more unforgettable memories from our wedding day than I could possibly recount. I will never forget watching the setup take place from the balcony at my mother-in-laws rental cottage overlooking the green and getting a glimpse at some surprises Brian had in store for me, I think I squealed! The look on Richard's face when he saw me in my gown for the first time and realizing I was more nervous than him! Seeing my ten stunning bridesmaids lined up before the ceremony looking more beautiful than I could have imagined in their pale pink Jenny Yoo gowns. Laughing uncontrollably during the speeches when my maid of honor tripped over her words and described me as "the perfect friend for her man" and Richard's brother closed his best man speech with a quote from 'Bridesmaids.' Dancing with my dad to a song he wrote and recorded just for our special moment.
Our wedding was the pinnacle of our 11 years relationship. A true manifestation of the love we have for each other and everyone in our lives through the most incredible celebration filled with enough laughs, love and pretty to last a lifetime.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is days away from closing its doors should Congress fail to pass a short term spending bill to fund the agency beyond February 27, 2015. If Congress is unable to pass legislation on the matter, 30,000 DHS employees will be out of work, at least temporarily. To make matters worse, a large portion of DHS employees facing furloughs have been deemed 'essential,' meaning they must report to work despite the fact that they may not be compensated for their work. The shutdown could affect NAGE / IBPO, EMS and IAEP members who work for DHS and we are taking the matter very seriously.
It has been rumored that some members in the US House of Representatives are trying to leverage the threat of a DHS shutdown to get President Obama's executive action on immigration reversed. Regardless of the underlying reasons as to why a spending bill has not yet to be passed, DHS employees cannot afford another shutdown.
NAGE needs YOU to reach out to your Congressperson and urge them to pass a spending bill to avoid negative impacts of shutting down DHS. We have only 16 days before the shutdown affects the livelihoods of our hard-working federal employees. For too long, Congress has used dedicated federal employees as pawns in a political chess game and the buck needs to stop here!
Please use the link below to find your Congressional Representative. We need your help! Call today!

IBPO/NAGE would like to congratulate the security supervisors with Boston University who recently voted unanimously to join the union.
"IBPO is proud to welcome these new members to our union, "said NAGE State Director David Bernard. "We have had a long and productive history with the Boston University security guards and look forward to building the same relationship with the security supervisors."
Congratulations again to these new members on becoming the newest addition to the growing IBPO/NAGE family.
This year will mark the twenty-second year NAPO has produced the TOP COPS Awards®. The purpose of the TOP COPS Awards® is to educate the American public about our nation's heroes and to pay tribute to law enforcement officers in federal, state, county, and local agencies from across the country for actions above and beyond the call of duty.
The TOP COPS® are nominated by fellow officers for outstanding service to their communities during the preceding year. An independent Awards Selection Committee compromised of national law enforcement representatives selects, from hundreds of nominations, one TOP COP® case from each of the 50 States and U.S. territory. The cases are then ranked and the top ten cases are chosen. The officers from the top ten cases (our TOP COPS) are flown to Washington, D.C. and recognized at the ceremony and by the President at the White House in a Rose Garden Ceremony.
The Dinner Awards Show held at the JW Marriott Hotel in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, May 12, features a short presentation of each TOP COP® and his or her story. NAPO bears all cost of travel and lodging of the winners.
We are trying to gather as many quality TOP COPS® nominations as possible. With TOP COPS® again taking place in May, we are under very tight schedule constraints. Nominations are due January 10, 2015
If you have any questions or need additional information please contact Elizabeth Loranger, Director of Events at NAPO. at email@example.com or(703) 0549-0775.

Do you like it more when you gain or lose an hour for daylight-saving time?
Asked at Massachusetts Street on March 8, 2007
"I don't know. I think I like to gain an hour. Of course it's an illusion, but it feels like you have more time to do everything."
"Gain, absolutely. I can always use more beauty sleep."
"I like the sun, so I enjoy losing an hour. There's more time to do stuff outside when I get off of work."
"I like to sleep in - in the morning, but I like the extra hour of sunlight more. So I like to lose the hour."

I (would) like it if we just scrapped this whole silly thing altogether, and had simple, normal time. Don't see why that would be so complicated.

Jonas, you are correct! It then became the official bribe of the OTS poster children.
You'd think just the opposite of more sleep = more cleavage. I think the deal is, you'd have to sleep on your back.

And mom's with wee ones to put to bed at a reasonable hour, they tear their hair. And do you know, statistics show that there are more accidents on city streets on the monday following the change? It always throws me off somehow but I don't understand that, it is only one hour, why does it make me so tired??????????? The whole thing makes no sense.

On a more important note :) does anyone know if there is streaming coverage available for the tournament today? If so, where? Inquiring minds want to know . . .

"Just paint your windows black so the evil sunlight wont burn your pasty white skin while you 'post' away....," posted the sallow skinned Mr. Ramirez as he glanced at the closed and heavily curtained windows of his bedroom. The lack of fresh air in the dark room left the place smelling vaguely like a bag of four day old burritos from Taco Bell. "Today might be the day I venture outside," he thought, knowing deep down that he was not being truthful with himself. The attempt to make himself feel better by trying to belittle those posting on the community website didn't help lift his spirits. "Maybe today I'll shower," he said aloud, aware and unfazed that the words sounded more like a question than a statement.

topeka, just for you...MAYO!
Ms_C, I am so jealous! I'd love it to be sunnier, longer. But you are right about the "little kid to bed" thing. Always hated trying to get mine to bed at 8 when it was still sunny and 98* outside, then I'd finally just give up and have to do a "bedtime bootcamp" a week before school started in the fall.

bea, more! we want more! The story can't be over at that. What about that misterious knock on the door?
beatrice 7 years, 12 months ago
Sue, a mysterious knock on the door would require someone taking an interest in Mr. Ramirez. I think it is more of an Eleanor Rigby kind of tale.

R_I, I'd like to make a charitible contribution to the "R_I Save The Daylight Fund". Can you make change for a dollar?
kansaskate 7 years, 12 months ago
It can be hard to get kids to bed! One little guy I babysit won't go to bed "till the sky is all dark blue. Dark dark." and that's not til 9:30! I'm ready to be done with the kid! It is totally worth it to get off work at 8 or 9 and not be afraid to walk to my car, though. I love daylight!!

TOB, he's out to get me. I mentioned that we would be off schedule with the rest of the world, so if we needed customer support or something, we may not call when they are open.

But the crawly Mr. R may not realize that messing with DST this year will confuse all the computers.
Next line of story----
He feels around in the dark and dreary room, and lets out a heart-breaking wail, for he discovers he is out of chocolate covered cherries.

I don't much care which way the time goes right now. I'm unemployed, and I just got a MacBook. Time could start running backwards at half speed and I'd probably be sitting here saying oooh, pretty computer. Also, I'd be trying to remember when to use the command key when I'm used to using ctrl or alt.
Anyway, really, the time change isn't a big deal to me one way or another. I do like the spring change because it means I'll get to photograph outdoor sports, and dealing with natural light is so much easier than dealing with typical high school gym lighting (or typical local ice arena lighting).
I say we just move time back twice a year. It might screw up the day/night thing for a while, but think of all the extra sleep we could get! Or say we could get, as we stay up later because of that extra hour.
mick 7 years, 12 months ago
This was done for our benefit by our wise Senators. It will save literally dozens of barrels of oil annually and practically eliminate our dependence on foreign energy.
beatrice 7 years, 12 months ago
jonas -- congrats! For the funds, I think RI should be more than willing to advance you the money with the understanding that it will be returned through future earnings from his "R_I Save The Daylight Fund"©. I'll bet he could even deduct it as a charitable corporate donation.
acg 7 years, 12 months ago
Wait, wait, wait. I'm coming in late on this conversation. Am I to understand that extra sleep grows 'em? So by that logic, if I were to stay up for a few weeks they might shrink? I could go for some serious shrinkage (not the Costanza kind). :)
pelliott 7 years, 12 months ago
Why not just change all of time itself, Lets set our clocks up and hour, leave it that way. Use to be for farmers, now it is suppose to be that people are more likely to shop if they have a little more sunshine after work. Why jump back.
Ceallach 7 years, 12 months ago
RI, have you ever tried a Mac? Once you go Mac, you never go back. Finances may force me to settle for a PC but my heart belongs to Mac :P
snowWI 7 years, 12 months ago
I wish we could be on CST the entire year EVERY year. I read an article the other day saying that the eastern half of Maine wants to join Atlantic Time because they are on the extreme edge of the eastern time zone. In the winter the sun sets at 3:45 in the afternoon. This has to be a darker area than the Pacific northwest in the winter!!!
Ceallach 7 years, 12 months ago
RI, My first computer was in 86, PC with DOS. After battling DOS for 2 years I changed jobs and was introduced to Macintosh. It was love at first byte :) I used Macs in my home office until December. I no longer have the business and 9.2 is the best my iMac can do, soooooooo, after shopping around I bought myself a Dell XPS for Christmas (I had been such a good girl!). The price difference was more than I could justify for my usage (hadn't been that good : ) It is fine for me now, but when working with graphics and web design I still prefer a Mac.
oldfashiongirl 7 years, 12 months ago
By streaming coverage, do you mean continuous coverage? According to my little hick town paper your Big 12 tourney began at 11:30AM on WDKA-Iowa State vs. Oklahoma; then at 2:00PM Texas Tech vs. Colorado WDKA; at 8:00PM Missouri vs. Baylor on ESPN2. Friday at 11:30AM Kansas vs winner of Iowa State/Oklahoma WDKA; 2:00PM Kansas State vs winner of Texas Tech/Colorado WDKA; 6:00PM Texas A & M vs Oklahoma State/Nebraska WDKA; 8:00 PM Texas vs Missouri/Baylor WDKA.
My great Univ of Ky beat our long time rival Alabama. Louisville just put them in OT with West Va. Great game!.
Ceallach 7 years, 12 months ago
Thanks, oldfashiongirl. I'm not familiar with WDKA but I will check out ESPN2 for streaming (that way I will have both the game and CSI :)
sunflower_sue 7 years, 12 months ago
I have to agree w/ Ceal. From an artist's standpoint, Macs rock! They could do anything any idiot wanted them to do. (Extremely user-friendly and so capable.) I miss Mac!
sgtwolverine 7 years, 12 months ago
That artist's standpoint thing would be a big reason I bought the MacBook. I mean, not that I'm actually an artist or anything, but this sure makes it easier to pretend!
Also, the remote is pretty cool.
sgtwolverine 7 years, 12 months ago
Ceal, at this point I'm putting my energy into getting the photo business organized. Well, that and photographing the high school basketball playoff games, since that's my business and all.
Linda Endicott 7 years, 12 months ago
Oh, please...
You're not "gaining" an hour of time, or an hour of daylight...the cycle of the sun rising and setting will continue, with the same amount of hours between the two, regardless of what "time" your clock says it is.
The only difference between CDT and CST is what the government chooses to call any particular hour.
As for saving energy...what a crock. You may think you're adding an hour of daylight at the end of the day, but you are also adding an hour of darkness at the beginning of the day...according to the clock, that is.
Let's see...in the summer, when heat is a big issue and people use their AC, does it cost more energy-wise to have that hour of daylight in the morning, when it's naturally cooler, or in the evening, when it's much hotter?
Just let the time stay the way it is, sheesh. When I was a kid they didn't have daylight savings on a regular basis, and we did just fine. The world didn't come to an end.

Xerox Corp. Wednesday issued a statement on the death of Glenn Britt, a member of the company's board of directors.
"We pay tribute to a friend, a colleague and pillar of the business world," said Ursula Burns, Xerox chairman and CEO. "We will remember most Glenn's sharp financial mind and solid, real-life practical approach to problem solving. He was a valued member of our board and will be greatly missed. We will hold his family close to our hearts today."
The company extended its deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Mr. Britt.
Mr. Britt, 65, served as a director of Xerox since 2004. He most recently served as chairman of the compensation committee and had served as lead independent director. He was the former chairman and CEO of Time Warner Inc. and lived in New York City.

I know you're all dying to know how things went with The Talk and whatsmore, but I need to write that post with a little more time – the good news is, though, that all is well that ends well.
Something completely different, however, is how I went to the bank today, because I had to cancel a payment I made, blah-blah. As I was already getting up and ready to leave, the clerk stated "oh, I see you are pre-approved for opening a credit line with us!"
And then all life froze for that split-second-long momentum and I fell back in my seat, frown on my face, head tilted a little, asking "excuse me?"
It has been months since I wrote on here about how I wanted to start building credit in the States. I had then applied for a credit card at my bank, but assumed that – as previously – it would get denied. But no-no, people. I'm officially credit worthy! Hurray!
The card I got granted is not one of those limitless deathtraps that people can get sucked into. It's just a way for me to – with no costs! – start build a positive credit score. That means that I will use the card on a monthly bases, for things that I would normally pay with from my debit card, knowing very well that I'll be able to pay the complete bill once that comes.
I have no annual fee on this card, and a limited credit line of 700$ – so I won't be escaping to Turks and Caicos any time soon. Best of all, if I do actually pay back the bill in full, I'll be avoiding fees and interest rates.
It's a small thing. I know. I got granted this card solely because I have a proven record at my bank of money coming in, and paying all bills on time. They don't care shit where I come from or how my financial future looks.
But to me, this is a little victory. A positive sign that I've established the solid foundation to build a rock solid structure on. That I can proceed in the direction I'm heading.
Hell. Yeah.

from The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 4th Edition
- n. Variant of djellaba.
Sorry, no etymologies found.
A smiling man wearing a beige galabia and a simple turban greeted them.
Standing tall in a loose, flowing galabia and white head wrap, Ibrahim looks somehow wizardly, maybe capable of vaporizing slackers with a cast from the long, intimidating stick-wand he keeps clutched behind his back.
"Actually, no, this doesn't happen all the time," he said, lowering himself to a more comfortable position on the floor, gathering his galabia in close around his folded legs.
He was wearing a black galabia that might have seemed far too warm for the high temperatures, but Jenny knew the garment was more effective in preserving body moisture than a lighter fabric, which would have allowed the moisture to evaporate.
His forearms and hands - all that appeared from the long sleeves of his galabia - were thin, his fingernails long and cracked.
Turning, she saw an Arab in a tan galabia heading toward her.
Jovial, pot-bellied Faris joked with international journalists throughout, chain-smoking so hard that ash was permanently falling down his once-pristine galabia.
"Naima had already changed out of her house galabia and into the hard fabric of her black dress, a veil wrapped tightly around her head, revealing the delicate shape of her skull."
"Naima" by Hisham Matar, in The New Yorker, January 24, 2011, p 64 -
A garment worn mainly in muslim countries.

Hey Guys... I know that if you are rooted the easiest way to update right now is to use the RSDlite to install .246. But as I understand it than I will lose root and my phone will reset back to stock. Right now there is no other option but what are the chances of this being changed in the upcoming weeks? Do you guys think someone will develop a method to update where I wont have to reset my phone to stock or lose root? If you guys tell me there is no way that is going to happen than I will update the RSDlite method, but knowing the android community I find that hard to believe. Someone has to develop an easier method pretty soon right? Im running Stock ROM, root 5.9.905 Thanks
You lose root regardless, it's a complete /system change. Just reroot it after its like a 4 reboot process. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2
Hey guys, Thanks for reply. I tried the OTA root keeper for update. I download it and go to install. It restarts and than fails. I get a message saying that the update failed. That is after I used the rootkeeper to temp disable the root and I unfrosted all of my apps. I dont know why else it would fail.
Just FXZ to 246 then run Razr's edge to get root back. You don't need to use "Root Keeper" or anything of the sort.
I had the same problem with the OTA not installing I did exactly what Mustang suggests FXZ to 246 & Razr's edge to root It worked great
+1 If you used safestrap your /preinstall partition is all jacked up. And fixing it isn't worth it. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2

April 22 at 9:26pm Dora McCallay I believe that drapery can take care of the glare and a rug is usually used to anchor the dining room table.

for fpv, I wonder what video tx freq can be used. I suppose 1280mhz is out of question or what? Quote:
I think it just shines when we hack them and add FrSky. and even by itself, it's not too bad |

As far as the "60 dollar radio" comparison. If you put it up against a high dollar Jr or Futaba radio, it looks very cheap, plastic, and the stock firmware is abysmal. I don't know what you fly, what your plans are for future planes, your electronics background, how much money you are willing to waist, where you fly, how people at your flying field feel about Chinese equipment, or how you feel about how they feel about you. That being said, I'm not sure if I can vote on what YOU should do. I will give my opinion. I'm not overly excited about Spektrum. I think they are a good low end radio. To me, the DX6i, as well as the DX5 look plastic and cheap. I've read many posts of Spektrum problems and of course many good posts(purely my opinion about Spektrum. Has nothing to do with them). I've had no radio related problems with my Flysky(again I will say I've only used my FrSky 1 day. About 7 flights). I've got limited electronics experience and a limited budget. I love to tinker with this radio. It feels good in my hands, and it has performed flawlessly. I would upgrade, because it's fun, but that is for me. I don't know how you'd feel about it. I don't know if I'd trust it to anything large. I'm flying a S.P.A.D. Debonair, with a .61 engine on it, and have total confidence. In a year or two when I put together my 50cc gasser, I'll make a decision on if I trust it enough for that. But then again, I'm not sure I'd trust Spektrum. I'm sure if it is what you do, you will not regret the decision. |

Ok, I voted. But I already made the Flysky decision. I lost my only plane and receiver in a swamp. No fault of the radio, it was all me. I ordered 3 more receivers. When they arrived I couldn't get them to bind. In my attempt to troubleshoot, I accidentally fried my tx. At that time someone had offered me a DX6i with a receiver for $120. I had to decide whether to buy the spektrum, or another FlySky radio. After a couple days of debate. I chose to order a new Flysky. I've never regretted that decision. And in the month the new one took to get in, I was able to fix my first tx. I now have 2. One with Er9x and the stock module, and the other with the FrSky DIY with telemetry.

On a side note. I cut one side of the plastic in the battery compartment so I could push it back and bring the cable out. I got tired of doing that to work on the radio so I got a 9pin ps2 plug and glued it with a spacer to the main board so the plug stays with the front of the radio. Then I drilled a hole in the battery compartment. Since the telemetry mod takes some very fine soldering, I used the wire from an old HDMI cable. It is a fine wire, so it worked well for soldering to the microcontroller. |

I got my 9x radio around March of this year. It only took me a couple months to decide to modify it. Not because of a deficiency with the radio, just because I like to tinker.
Mod 1: 1550 mah 2s lipo, this is the largest 2S pack that I could find to fit in the battery compartment http://www.hobbypartz.com/98p-25c-1550-2s1p.html Mod 2: USB port for er9x firmware, I permanently mounted the whole usb card in the bottom of the radio with a hole in the case to plug in a usb cord. http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9825 Mod 3: Fr-Sky DIY telemetry module, I don't like the look of the antenna coming out of the back so I went with the DIY module installed internally, I haven't hooked up the telemetry part yet, I just got this installed over the weekend. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...er_Module.html Mod 4: Backlight, for the price I couldn't resist http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...Blue_DIY_.html Bottom line, if you like tinkering with things I don't think there is a better radio available.

We are committed to developing and implementing an effective system of revalidation for nurses and midwives
What is revalidation?
We are proposing new requirements that nurses and midwives must meet when they renew their registration every three years.
Revalidation will replace the post-registration education and practice (Prep) standards from 31 December 2015. Revalidation aims to improve upon the Prep system by setting new requirements for nurses and midwives.
Under revalidation, nurses and midwives will be required to declare they have:
Unless selected for audit, a nurse or midwife will not need to submit their collected revalidation evidence. .
The proposed revalidation model has been developed in line with our current legislative framework. It will also replace the existing three-year renewal cycle and the notification of practice form.
Who does revalidation apply to?
All nurses and midwives will need to comply, so nursing and midwifery students who qualify after December 2015 will need to understand the new requirements. Nurses and midwives who do not comply will no longer be registered.
When will revalidation start?
All nurses and midwives renewing their registration on or after 31 December 2015 will need to comply with the new system.
How is revalidation being developed?
We have published an evidence review [PDF] based on the consultation findings. In December 2014 our Council will consider a draft revalidation policy for piloting. Starting in January 2015, we will start the revalidation pilots.
Leading up to this, we completed a six-month public consultation in August. The consultation involved two online surveys on revalidation and a draft revised Code. The consultation also included workshops and focus groups. Both parts of the consultation were run by independent companies.
In conjunction with the consultation, we held five stakeholder summits and other engagement activities across the four UK countries. Attendees consisted of nurses, midwives, employers, leaders, educators and representatives.
Twitter chats
We have held a number of Twitter chats for different audiences about the revised Code and revalidation. You can view a summary of them below.
Storify for the Twitter chat on revalidation, held on Thursday 12 February with NMC Chief Executive and Registrar Jackie Smith and Chief Nursing Officer for Scotland (Interim) Fiona McQueen.
Storify for the Twitter chat on the revalidation pilots, held on Thursday 13 November 2014. Eileen Sills, Director of Nursing for Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, took part in the chat alongside NMC Chief Executive and Registrar Jackie Smith.
Storify for the Twitter chat for nurses and midwives about revalidation, held on 22 January 2014.
Storify for the Twitter chat we held with Healthwatch on 27 January 2014 about revalidation and public protection.
Storify for the Twitter chat for employers of nurses and midwive on 12 March 2014, about the revalidation consultation.
Storify for Twitter chat on the draft new Code, held on 23 June 2014.

GOP Seeing More Independent Support: Poll
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- A Gallup poll released on Wednesday found the electorate expected to head to the polls for congressional elections next week looks to have a decidedly more Republican bent than it has in past years.
The poll shows a significant shift in the percentage of voters either identifying themselves as Republican or as independents leaning Republican to 55% of the electorate from 45% in 2006.
And it looks like the GOP's gain is the Democratic party's loss because the percentage of those either identifying themselves as Democrats or as independents leaning that way fell to 40% in the new Gallup poll from 52% in 2006.
Gallup said the gain was mainly attributable to a greater percentage of independents, 16%, leaning toward the Republicans than had occurred in the past, and it noted that the 40% figure for Democrats was the lowest such percentage "of the past several midterms."

Is Neil Marshall Going to Replace Peter Berg on Dune?
Posted on Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 by Brendon Connelly
A new and curious rumour suggests that Peter Berg is no longer attached to the next big screen adaptation of Dune and the studio are shopping around for a new director. Normally, when rumours like this have something to them it's been after a fair bit of radio silence but it hasn't exactly been all quiet on the Atreides front, with Peter Berg discussing progress on the picture only a couple of months ago. Okay – it's possibly more accurate to say he was discussing a lack of progress.
If this rumour is true, however, there's a little more to it. As well as informing us that Berg and his Film 44 company have made a break for the door, the story goes that some frontrunning candidates for the canvas chair have already come in to focus: Neill Blomkamp and Neil Marshall. Bafflingly, it's Marshall who is said to be the frontrunner.

Community Benefits from 2014 Project Community Convergence
As the semester winds down and the pressure of finals week starts to creep closer, over 100 St. John Fisher College students decided to roll up their sleeves to volunteer for the 2014 Project Community Convergence (PCC), led by Students With A Vision (SWAV).
On Saturday, March 29, and Saturday, April 5, the students spent their days in School No. 15, School of the Arts (SOTA), Nazareth Elementary, and the Rochester Association of Performing Arts (RAPA) providing them with a makeover.
Alycia Appelbaum was the student leader in charge of Nazareth Elementary, and said the group painted all of the staircases and cleaned the shelves in the library. Her location attracted a total of 30 volunteers over the two weekends. The timing worked out for Nazareth, as the school is having an open house this week. The Fisher volunteers left everything in tip top shape.
"Over the two weekends, we managed to complete at least two projects per school, which is amazing considering these projects could have taken months to complete had they done them on their own. PCC is an excellent way to see a change first-hand in our community, especially as our surrounding schools lack the amount of funding needed to complete these projects," said Appelbaum.
Jayna Betancourt was assigned to RAPA and the SOTA. At RAPA, volunteers painted the hallways and lobby. And at SOTA, they cleaned out the attic and painted classrooms.
Betancourt said PCC is a great way for students to get out into the Rochester community and see some of the conditions that these school-aged children are exposed to and learning in.
"Over the course of the two weekends, the volunteers were able to go in and really give these schools a facelift and create a better and brighter environment for not only the students but the staff as well. This project could not have been completed without the help of the other two coordinators, Sally, and the volunteers. It is my sincere hope that the volunteers that helped us found fulfillment from making a positive impact on the community and the lives of others," said Betancourt.

Antique Milk Glass
Milk glass has been around since the 16th century, but the term itself was coined in the 20th century to describe the opaque white plates, goblets, serving items, and decorative objects that became popular in the late 1880s.
France was the first place milk glass came into vogue, and 19th-century French milk glass is highly collectible today. By the early 1900s, milk glass was a symbol of the style and taste of American households enjoying the fruits of the Gilded Age. These privileged individuals filled their homes with milk glass produced by 19th-century U.S. glass manufacturers, including New England Glass Company, Bryce Brothers, Gillinder & Sons, and Atterbury & Company.
Milk glass plates are one of the most popular collectibles from this era. One particularly rare plate featured the face of George Washington and had a border of thirteen stars. Other plates sported relief portraits of Christopher Columbus at their centers, and in 1908, plates were produced to help spur the presidential campaigns of William Jennings Bryan and William Howard Taft.
Regardless of the imagery at its heart, whether it was relief flowers or painted birds, the borders of milk glass plates were often pressed or molded to resemble latticework or pinwheels. Some edges were scalloped, others were beaded like frosting on the rim of a wedding cake, and a few were even smooth and round, with undecorated centers to go with these uncharacteristically understated edges.
Platters were a step up from plates—unlike dinnerware, which demanded a certain minimum level of functionality, platters could go all-out when it came to decorative effects. The relief on a rare Lincoln platter from the late 1800s is so great that it must have been used exclusively as a commemorative object. At the other end of the utility spectrum were waffle platters, whose gridded surfaces resembled those of the popular breakfast item they were designed to carry. Somewhere in between was the retriever platter, which depicted a three-dimensional dog head breaking through cattails at the bottom of the platter.
For objects such as serving dishes, milk glass was often pressed so that its surface had a diamond-cut pattern—collectors refer to these as Sawtooth pieces. Atterbury was especially well known for its covered Sawtooth dishes in the shapes of ducks, fish, and other animals. In fact, Atterbury made so much milk glass that the company's Pittsburgh factory was often referred to as the White House.
In a class by themselves are the covered serving dishes, whose tops resembled roosters, chickens, hens, and swans, as well as lions and other less domestic beasts. Sometimes peop...
Jugs and pitchers were another favorite form for milk glass. Geometric and basket-weave reliefs graced the outsides of these handsome objects, and Hobnail patterns were very popular on everything from flower vases to syrup jars.
During the Depression and into the 1940s and '50s, milk glass lost some of its luster as a symbol of domestic status. Respected glass companies such as Akro Agate, Westmoreland, Fenton, and Fostoria made milk glass, but the style seemed a throwback to an earlier, fustier age.
Akro Agate made powder jars, whose lids were in the shapes of Colonial-era women wearing billowy dresses. Fostoria made a pink version of milk glass, while Westmoreland made things like covered dishes whose tops and bottoms formed a kneeling camel. It was all very charming but seemed out of step with the evolving styles of the day.
Despite this, some companies actually made a name for themselves with milk glass. In particular, Fenton's line of Hobnail milk glass—from fan-shaped vases to toothpick holders to candlesticks—became the company's flagship pattern in the 1950s. Indeed, the company's prodigious output and success with Hobnail milk glass contributed to a resurgence of interest in this retro form during the early 1960s.

She decides to visit Johan at his old summerhouse in the western province of Dalarna. And so, one beautiful autumn day, there she is, beside his reclining chair, waking him with a light kiss. Also living at the summerhouse are Johan's son Henrik and Henrik's daughter Karin. Henrik is giving his daughter cello lessons and already sees her future as staked out. Relations between father and son are very strained, but both are protective of Karin. They are all still mourning Anna, Henrik's much-loved wife, who died two years ago, yet who, in many ways, remains present among them. Marianne soon realizes that things are not all as they should be, and she finds herself unwillingly drawn into a complicated and upsetting power struggle.

Consensus: If Saraband appears to be a minor entry in Ingmar Bergman's filmography, it's still an accomplished piece of work from one of cinema's greatest masters.
With Saraband, the great writer-director has stepped back into the ring for one last epic wrestle with his demons. There is, as always, no easy outcome. But no one ever fought for higher emotional and spiritual stakes.
Full review…The performances -- welling, unified and multidimensional -- are beyond praise, as are Bergman's visual images.
Full review…It is existential gruel, ten portions of misery handed down from the master. Compelling and intense, it is also pitiless.
Full review…A parlour-room theatre of emotional cruelty, with all exits barred by the past.
Full review…For those inclined to search for psychological twists, the film offers plenty of Freudian situations capable of provoking lengthy discussions. For the film buff, the discussions will turn to a Bergman still at the peak of his craft.
Full review…Saraband is a commandingly restrained final composition and -- as the theme of classical musicianship suggests -- very much an affair of close attention to the nuances of performance.
Full review…While bringing an abundance of inspiration to this world, Bergman unapologetically refused to ignore the pain and darkness that infects mankind. There will never be another filmmaker like him.
Full review…A stunning and complex final bow from a stunning and complex artist.
Full review…Bergman has a sharp talent for observing human conflicts without claiming to fully understand them.
