I'd hardly call that video 'unsafe', a few suggestive comments and even the digital boobs were pixelated.
The one question it does raise though is if the game has also been sanitized to this level?
The public has spoken, they don't want DAB, it's old, expensive and doesn't work properly!
You do get some dancing on the train to music, and it seemed to cheer everyone up.
PS Who needs a seat when you have a pole?
Just tried it out, first impressions seems OK.
I compared the feed to SKY (which has a short delay on it) and found that the delay on this is about 15 seconds.
I thought the law was clarified a while back that you were allowed to copy copyrighted works as a backup in case of damage to the original.
There used to be a burger place in Heston, London called Dinaways that was very popular with the late night after pub crowds. The had a couple of car stickers with the slogans "I've gobbled a big one" and "The meat makes you come", which considering that they sold large flame grilled burgers which were the best for miles was perfectly reasonable.
All it took was one person to make a complaint to Hounslow Council and they had to stop using them.
I did wonder if this was also a chance for the Arab League to see the Typhoons up close in the hope that they might buy some from us, as they are probably the target market for them and the only people with money to spend on them.
If Archos can get Android 3 onto their latest units(7 & 10) they'll beat the Ipad by at least £100.
Why not license it to be grown at home?
Buy a yearly license that allows you to grow X number of plants(work out how many would supply you for a year) for a year for personal use. License gives the police and authorities the legal right to enter your property at any time to check you growing plants, in the same way as a firearms cert gives them the right to check your locker when they want.
License shops to sell it to over 18's and add a decent tax on it, anyone caught selling illegally gets 5 years inside.
All you need to do is work out the prices and tax levels.
Perhaps the plan is for this to be the new job given to all the inner city unwed mothers. They can sit around at home with their screaming kids watching TV or playing Xbox whilst being milked to make this ice cream.
As long as the pop out one kid every 18 months they will keep producing milk so they have an excuse now.
They have got to be kidding.
Ubisoft site describes it as 'Sexy Party Game' and yet it has a 'Pegi 12' rating.
Grab the popcorn and wait for the Daily Mail and the Tories to see this, this is gonna be fun.
The fact that it is also a mobile phone will mean we are probably looking at £500+ or so.
Also, if you are going to have all the regular mobile phone functions, why no GPS? Would make a sweat in car satnav.
"an unpatriotic taste for pizza, hamburgers and hot dogs"
HAM ... You sure? I can't really see a country like Iran that is so heavily Muslim exactly taking a liking to pork based products.
After all we all know that the Middle East problems would be solved if they'd all just sit down with a bacon sannie and talk about it. Everything is better with bacon!
I know this result is non-binding right now. But if the final decision is binding what is this going to do to the ruling that the non-UK adult satellite channels cannot be used in the UK?
The law in the UK is already a joke considering that you can view the stuff on the net or buy videos, but you cannot watch it via your satellite dish.
To be honest I wouldn't be advising someone to by either of these, instead buy a DVD Recorder with a built-in Hard Drive so you have some means to get the files off the machine if you want to keep them.
At least until they bring out a decent priced PVR that will record to a decent compressed (DivX etc) format and comes with a ethernet port so you can pull the files off that way.
T-Mobile Statement:
"On Monday 10 January 2011 we announced that, in line with the rest of the industry, T-Mobile would be reducing its Fair Use Policy for data usage to 500MB a month for all mobile phone customers. Following a further review of our policy, these changes will now be introduced from 1 February, to new and upgrading customers only - not existing customers.
There will be no change to the data packages for existing customers for the duration of their contract and we apologise for any confusion caused. The revision to the Fair Use Policy is designed to ensure an improved quality of service for all mobile internet users."
Lysa Hardy, VP, T-Mobile UK
Information on new data policy:
From 1 February 2011 new and upgrading customers will be given a monthly 500MB data allowance. There will be no charge for those customers exceeding that limit, and those who do will still be able to access important services such as email and web browsing, however file downloading and streaming services will be restricted. Customers will then have the option to increase their monthly Fair Use Policy to 1GB a month by purchasing a Mobile Broadband Booster. This will ensure an improved quality of service for all of our mobile internet users.
If they change the implimentation date to 1st March that will mean that they are admitting that the change is classed as a change that requires the 30 day notice.
In which case, they leave themselves open to people using that period to get out if they can show that they have been affected detramentally.
The more they wriggle, the more they tie themselves in knots.
Copy of post made elsewhere for information
Still no notice of changes here.
Just got off the phone with OFCOM and put in my complaint.
OFCOM phone number is : 0300 123 3333 or 020 7981 3040
Call them and tell them why the changes will be of 'material detriment' to you too.
My argument was that as I currently use about 1.2GB of internet per month (which is steadily increasing) my phone will stop accepting data after about 2 weeks into the month, which will basically stop most of it from working. The only way I could continue to have a fully functioning phone would be to sign up to the new booster which gives you a 3GB FUP if you pay £10.64. This would mean an increase in my bill of over 40% which is unacceptable.
As I still haven't been given notice of these changes T-Mobile are also in breach of the OFCOM General Condition 9.3 which requires 30days notice of any change.
OFCOM General Conditions url=http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/telecoms/ga/cvogc300710.pdf]
I also asked about if I am allowed to demand my PAK code and then cancel my Direct Debit in order to stop them taking out the £370 cancellation fee as I feel the fee is in dispute, and was told that I would be within my rights to with hold the monies whilst the dispute is dele with.
When I spoke to T-Mobile cancellations department this morning the guy on the other end had heard nothing about this change and thought I was just 'going from rumors' as an 'Android phone needs much more than 500mb data'. When he spoke to his boss he came back he still couldn't believe it. He also said that the Android phones will be going down to 1.5GB rather than 0.5GB (first time I've heard that one), but I told him that I still wasn't satisfied. He also couldn't supply that in writing, it was just 'what the manager said'.
I was told that if I wanted to complain I should email email@example.com as they didn't give out a postal address, but Companies House gives you:
Company No. 04347402
Company No. 02382161
OFCOM also suggest that you send in these sort of letters by post (recorded etc) instead of email.
My plan now is to write to them explaining that as the new changes are of 'material detriment' to me I therefore reject these new changes and demand my PAK code by XXXX, or an agreement to maintain my 3GB data limit for the duration of my contract with them.
I wonder if it is also worth adding that if I do need to change suppliers I will be holding them responsible for any increased costs that may be charged until April 2011 (when my contract ends).
Considering that I'm paying T-Mobile £25 per month right now and the 'three' unlimited dataplan is £35, it would only be fair to take T-Mobile to the Small Claims Court for the extra £140.
Ok just got off phone with T-Mobile after 50mins.
Phillipines: ALL internet contracts are affected by the new changes from Feb 2011.
Me: OK then I reject the changes to the T&Cs and therefore you leave me no choice but to leave T-Mobile, please give me the PAK code.
Phillipines then put me on hold.
Glasgow: I was told something about this yesturday, let me get the FAQ. Reads through FAQ to me, yes Android Web'n'Walk Plus customers are also included, and it states that customers cannot end their contract due to changes.
Me: UK law says differently and in 2009 OFCOM also found against T-Mobile when they messed with the T&Cs. So I have to request my PAK code then.
Glasgow: I cannot give you the code without generating a charge, I will talk to my manager.
Few minutes later,
Glasgow: My manager has spoken to Technical and they state that Android WnW+ aren't included in the change after all.
Me: Could you (or her) send me an email stating that I can keep my 3gb limit?
He goes back to manager again for a few minutes,
Glasgow: My manager has been told that they cannot send out an email as legal are now looking into sending out some form of clarification about exactly what the changes are. He will call or email me today.
It looks like this change has been rushed through and no one has bothered to spell out clearly who is/isn't affected by it. I cannot faullt the guy at the Glasgow call centre, he was polite and helpful as much as he could be. It's just that the main company seemed to just not bother making it clear what's happening.
Talking to T-Mobile on phone right now and they say that the 'plus' contracts are affected.
Trying to get code to leave now.
Just found this post from October 2009 when T-Mobile last played silly buggers with the T&Cs, should be good ammo for this time
Get out there and spank T-Mobile!
I'm on T-Mobile, running a HTC Desire and not been sent the text yet.
I believe that with such a major change to their T&Cs you can just use this opportunity to 'reject the new terms' and take your phone and number to a new provider with zero need to buyout the remainder of the contract.
This is how people got out of the old Screaming.Net and WorldOnline ISP contracts a few years back.
It appears that T-Mobile are being swamped by people complaining about this change. When you phone 150 to get their customer services you get, the T-Mobile jingle followed by "Sorry, we are unable to transfer your call, sending you back to the main menu" which then just repeats until you hang up as it is transferring to itself over and over.
From the T-Mobile forums
If this happened on mobile ISPs it would only be a matter of time until it ended up on your home internet as well.
But, until all internet providers actually supply you with an accurate way of monitoring your internet use so you can accurately tell how many MB/GB/TB you need each month how can they really blame people for using too much?
Just telling people to download 3rd party apps onto each home PC/Laptop etc just doesn't solve the problems, as these often just record data passing through the network port etc.
I'm suprised they didn't call the new company Tect-Pro.
You will probably find that they have formed a US middle man company to supply the units to the UK company and it'll be owned by the original Pro-Tect owners.
I expect the next stage will be a developer asking for a fee to allow modders to continue to modify their titles.
First it'll be the power graphs that tell you how much dps you are doing in real time and tells you what button to press. Then it'll be the ingame maping software that tells you where to find targets/places.
This is only a matter of time.
I doubt he wants to leave the UK anyways, there is probably a reason he wanted to be arrested in the UK rather than elsewhere. We are more likely to let the courts decide to send him abroad rather than let a US snatch squad pick him up.
From what I heard earlier in the year BT are in the process of moving all their call centres back to the UK due to all the complaints they get about foreign ones.
Everyone from the UK should be telling companies that they are pleased that there call centres are in the UK when they are, and complaining about the fact that they are abroad. This is the only way they will ever bring them back to the UK again.
"After 5 mins told BT bloke on phone who I was" is NOT the same as pulling the "don't you know who I am" line.
If you phoned BT you would also need to tell them who you are otherwise they won't talk to you.
There is no reason to make things more difficult for every ISP out there, also they would never all be the same or be updated as often.
Why does the charity not just start up it's own DNS and allow any parents that wish to use just connect to that one?
Just setup the Mary Whitehouse DNS and let the Daily Mail readers etc point out what sites should be added to "here be boobs" list and blocked.
Dawkins and co don't single out Christianity, instead they are anti anyone that still talks to invisible friends instead of using their brain to realise that none of the 'invisible friends' actually makes any sense.
"it wasn't some random idiot from the street that contact the host"
Correct, it was instead a highly paid idiot that went above his authority by implying that there was no need for him to get a court order to get the site removed.
The MET should have asked for the page to be removed whilst they got a court order to remove the offending post, insted it just seems like it was an excuse to remove an unhelpful site.
I hope Fitwatch decide to try and sue the host for acting illegally.
Also if the police don't now try to get every other site that has posted the information closed down it will prove that they were just looking for an excuse to his this site rather than just acting on the evidence of this one post.
One of our videos got picked up by the Evening Standard today
Owen - I think you are missing the point of these cars.
These cars do not detect or stop dangerous actions by any road users, if they did we'd leave them alone. These cars are being used as a more efficent way of collecting parking fines and fines from other ambigous road signs. Westminster Council have a history of issuing tickets even when they know that the ticket is unenforceable if challanged, they ignore government rules/guidance on placement of road signs in the hope that people will be caught out and just pay up.
When the law was changed to allow CCTV enforcement of parking regulations it was done on the understanding tat it was only used where it wasn't safe or practical to do so by a man on foot traditional parking attendent.
Most pedestrians and cyclists don't have a problem with us doing what we are doing in relation to these cars, take a look at a few of the videos
If these cars were being used to aid Road Safety we would not be doing anything to them but they are in truth just mobile money printers for Westminster.
Re. the Police
We have had a number of discussions with the police about our activities and they are perfectly happy with us following these cars and what we are doing.
This is just another extension of our fight against Westminster Council and will continue, along with our protests every Wednesday at Trafalgar Square. If coming into Westminster on a Wednesday bring a packed lunch, you may be a little while.
These rides started off as a Saturday event and have now expanded to any day people are free. We had a single rider out on Monday who must have saved motorists over £1000 in fines.
There is now a Twitter feed that we update with locations as we find them and people can let us know where the cameras are easily. http://twitter.com/NoToMob
We are also starting to expand operations outside Westminster due to the fact that the Westminster cars have developed a habit of running back to base when we turn up.
At the end of the day, don't post anything on the web that you wouldn't do face to face or don't have the bottle to admit to posting to family and work collegues.
If he'd done the same things to these people in person he would also have been locked up, so doing it on the web is no defence.
I thought there was an incident a few years back when the powergrids went screwy due to one part going BANG?
"Maude said that since 11 May, the government had already found another 81 sites - giving a total of 742 websites which are either run directly by the government or run by charities, museums or other bodies with government involvement.
Maude promised an announcement alongside the spending review to cut 75 per cent of these."
Does this mean they will be closing the charities and museums or just stopping them for having websites?
Does it really matter how many sites there are as long as they are being used by the public and kept upto date by the admins?
With incidents like this becoming more common is it any suprise that the Head of the MET wants to make it harder to sue the police?
The idiot that reported this and the cop that threatened to fine him for it both need to get a life.
He should have kept the hedge and refused the fine, then the police would have to drop it or get the CPS to prosecute, which would have been a case worth seeing in the Magistrates court.
I know a few people that have been eyeing the iPad and/or an eBook reader, and keep telling them not to buy anything yet as there is so much stuff coming onto the market in the next month or so.
So far from what I've seen the Archos 70 Internet Tablet looks to be the best hope for price/performance/abilities http://www.archos.com/products/ta/archos_70it/specs.html
Capacitive Screen - yes
Recent OS - yes (Android 2.2)
Fast CPU - yes (1 GHz)
Good Storage - yes (8GB flash or 250GB HD), also micro SD slot
WiFi & Bluetooth - yes
Battery - 10 hrs surfing (will probably be 7 in truth though)
Also has built in webcam.
Just need to see what their service will be like and actually get hands on time messing with one now.
According to the HTC Sense site it only works on a couple of their very new phones and not most of their range.
Of course if the McCanns had been using a babysitter, the babysitter would have been prosecuted for neglect when the girl went missing.
Why then, do we hold parents to a lower standard than the minimum wage hired help?
I don't have too much of a problem with throttling during peak hours, I just wish I could get more than a 1.5mb down max on my BT line.
Also any company expecting you to stay within a download limit for a month should supply you with software that will allow you to monitor the stats on your line from their system.
I expect the real target will be Wikileaks and so called extremist websites (basically anything considered unamerican)
It's suprising that this clip is still pretty much correct even over 20 years later.
Push the button?
I stopped using the site ages ago due to the number of virus and trojan warnings/infections. Not had any problems since I avoided it.
Next time you get an insurance quote check if the call centres are in the UK, if not go somewhere else and tell them why. Every call centre job being done overseas is another person on the dole in the UK who you are paying for with your taxes.
... this law won't be used to get rid of odd existing laws, instead they will use tha facility to create a whole new set of strange local laws to nick you for.

Every day I worked with Christina Cuervo, police Chief Donald De Lucca, the county's Larry Capp, and Tom Battles from the Department of Justice. We all worked very hard to make Memorial Day weekend a success. Brett and New Times tried to undermine that process, and in my opinion that was wrong. I would like to go on record as saying that I felt the plan that Christina Cuervo and the City of Miami Beach put together, in conjunction with our original plan, was a good one.
Why didn't Brett like the fact that a good plan was coming together? I just don't get it. Maybe he wanted to have a big melee, a big riot. That is not what I was trying to do. I am bringing the hip-hop generation and the R&B generation down here. People are spending a lot of money to enjoy Miami Beach and have a good time. There was no reason for New Times to hype up the residents over something that did not need hype. You acted like these people were terrorists about to flip the Beach over. That wasn't the case. These people have credit cards, jobs, and are paying the highest rates for hotels and events. They spend cash money in our malls and restaurants.
New Times has done nothing but try to cause tension between the African-American community and the City of Miami Beach. That needs to stop.

Belgium boss Marc Wilmots has likened Eden Hazard to Zinedine Zidane but says that the Chelsea star must become more prolific for his country.
The 23-year-old has an impressive domestic record, netting goals in all competitions for the Blues so far this season, but he has just five international goals to his name.
Hazard has enjoyed an outstanding Premier League campaign, helping his Chelsea side take pole position in the table, and Wilmots believes there are similarities in his game with France legend Zidane.
"Eden's confirming it this season. Jose Mourinho has put some pressure on him, now he's praising him," he said.
"I've once played a charity game with Zinedine Zidane. It was crazy. The ball was a part of him: nothing was impossible.
"I've the same feeling when I see Eden playing. He's so valuable.
"When he has the ball, you know he's not going to lose it. You know the team has a moment to breathe again."
Wilmots, who is preparing to pick his Belgium squad for the summer's World Cup, is the country's leading goalscorer and he has challenged Hazard to emulate him in front of goal and warned him against complacency.
"Eden knows what I expect from him. I don't tolerate one moment of loosening," he said.
"If I feel one day, his state of mind is not right, I will do it without him," he said.
"But to be honest, he has to improve his stats in the national team. Where is he now? He has scored 5 goals, two of them were penalties, in almost 50 games.
"That's not enough. I wasn't as talented as he was, but I've scored 29 goals for Belgium. I love Eden, but I ask him to be more decisive."

Andrea Bocelli's First Operatic Run in North America Concludes with Live Audio and Video Webcast on GMN.com - Live from the Detroit Opera House.
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 11, 1999--GMN.com's Online Millennium Series Kicks-off with
Michigan Opera Theatre's Production of the French Opera Werther on
Sunday, November 14th at 3:00 p.m. (EST)
Global Music Network (www.gmn.com), the Internet's premier site for complete live performance of classical music, opera, and jazz, will webcast Andrea Bocelli's fifth and final performance of Michigan Opera Theatre's production of Massenet's opera Werther, live from the newly refurbished Detroit Opera House on Sunday, November 14, 1999 at 3:00 p.m. (EST). As part of GMN.com's "Millennium Series," the online music network will give viewers a chance to register to see and listen to one of the most talked-about events of the performing arts season, as Mr. Bocelli sings the lead role in the French opera, along side world-famous mezzo-soprano Denyce Graves. Last year Michigan Opera Theatre's General Director, Dr. David DiChiera, invited Andrea Bocelli to sing the role of Werther after seeing him perform in a recital in Montreal.
Mr. Bocelli, whose phenomenal worldwide success has included over 20 million album sales, has a tremendous reputation in the worlds of both classical and popular music. He has appeared in many of the world's leading venues and festivals, including performing at the Academy Awards last year, and for the Pope on Christmas Eve, 1994. Mr. Bocelli noted, "when it comes to these two styles of music my soul is basically divided into two. I have an excellent relationship with pop music, which remains with me through moments of escapism, enjoyment, and amusement. Nevertheless, opera, of course, still remains my heart's music, and with it the world of classical music."
"GMN.com intends to webcast musical events of note, even controversial ones, and Andrea Bocelli's first North American opera performance certainly is such an event. We believe that this will provide his millions of fans the chance to watch and listen to him fulfill his passion of performing opera," said GMN.com's Chairman and CEO Michael Lubin. "In addition, it will expose many to a genre of music that they may be unfamiliar with."
Placido Domingo, noted tenor, who is a GMN.com Board member and Family Artist said, " It is no secret that the public has bought millions of recordings of Andrea Bocelli singing well-known arias. This webcast will give some of them the opportunity to re-discover such highlights within the framework of the entire opera. I'm in favor of bringing the thrill of an entire opera to the uninitiated."
With this event, GMN.com will once again bring the best in Internet audio and video technology to its audience, ensuring visitors of the highest quality audio and visual presentations available online. Offering an array of choices to those who log on, including Real Player and Microsoft Media Player, the web site continues to support all the popular standards of technology available today.
"The Internet is a new and exciting vehicle for audiences to experience the opera- its drama, its visual effect, and of course the incomparable experience of live performance," said Mr. Bocelli.
The Stars of Werther
The cast of Werther includes Andrea Bocelli in the title role, mezzo-soprano Denyce Graves as Charlotte, soprano Ying Huang as Sophie, and baritone Christopher Schaldenbrand sings the role of Albert. Maestro Steven Mercurio conducts and Mario Corradi directs.

Financial Highlights |
Summary of Interim Results Presentation
The consolidated sales of Ricoh Group increased year-on-year in the 1st half of the fiscal year ending March 2007 due to sales growth in all business segment, especially office solution business where color MFPs and printers grew steady both in Japan and overseas. As a result, we achieved a new record of net income for the first half. We raised the sales forecast of the fiscal year ending March 2007 due to the sales impact of the acquisition of Danka Business Systems PLC's European operations. We did not change the forecast for operating income, pre-tax profit and net income. For the third quarter and onward, we predict an exchange rate of ¥115.00 against the U.S. dollar and of ¥140.00 against the Euro. The half-year dividend comes to 13 yen per share, up 1 yen from the last consecutive period. And we forecast a dividend for fiscal 2006 of 28 yen per share including the half-year dividend. |
Q&A Session
Are color MFPs(multifunction printers) more profitable than black-and-white MFPs? |
What percentage of sales currently come from global major accounts? |
What accounted for the weak 1H sales growth rate in America? |
Is it possible to increase operating income growth rate in the next fiscal year as compared with this fiscal year? |
Why is the projected overseas sales growth rate for 2H higher than 1H? |
Why can't you disclose each growth rate for both copiers and printers? |
Can we expect to see higher cost reduction in 2H thanks to new product effect? |
Q3. | What percentage of sales currently come from global major accounts? |
A3. | It's still a small portion. We are set on expanding this sector in the next fiscal year. |
Q6. | Why is the projected overseas sales growth rate for 2H higher than 1H? |
A6. | Because we expect the full effect of new product launches to come into play in 2H, in combination with other factors. |
Q7. | Why can't you disclose each growth rate for both copiers and printers? |
A7. | Such a disclosure no longer makes sense since MFPs and printers are combined in the solutions sales approach. |

Safeguarding Our Children
Is cyberbullying a passing trend or a permanent phenomenon? Dr. Ybarra believes cyberbullying is here to stay. She notes that this practice has been around for at least five years, and is gaining recognition in the health fields, particularly since 1999, when the federal government sponsored the first Youth Internet Safety Survey to gauge the potential for negative online experiences to young users, including unwanted sexual solicitation and harassment. Dr. Ybarra continues to focus her research on the important intersection of children's mental health and Internet use, and offers suggestions for children, parents, and educators to deal with cyberbullying.
"Adults see the Internet as a thing, but children see the Internet as a place, like home or school," reflects Dr. Ybarra. "Just like any other environment, it poses both risks and benefits to kids. It's the job of adults to teach young people how to correctly identify and safely navigate the potential risks, while also taking advantage of the benefits of the online world."
Important Strategies for Dealing with Online Bullying
Tips for Children
- Practice appropriate online communication etiquette. Treat people online the same way you would in person—if it's not okay to say something in person or on the phone, it's not okay to say it online.
- Turn off the computer or cell phone immediately if you are being bullied online.
- Tell an adult you trust about the cyberbullying incident.
Tips for Parents and Educators
- Educate yourself—know what cyberbullying is, who is most likely to bully or be a target, and when a child is most likely to be distressed by an online bullying incident.
- Talk to the parents of the bullying child, who often don't know their child is involved in online bullying.
- If cyberbullying takes place off campus, a school may get involved if the incident poses a substantial likelihood of disruption at school.
- Make sure your school has a bullying prevention program in place.
More Tips for Parents
- Teach your child appropriate social skills for online communication.
- Remind children not to give out their personal information (address, telephone number, etc.) online.
- Set age-appropriate boundaries for use of technology and online behaviors.
- Create open and honest relationships with your children so they feel comfortable coming to you when questions or problems arise.
- Don't punish your child if she or he is the target of an online bullying incident. Cutting off your child's Internet access will not solve the problem. If your child is not upset by the incident, don't overreact. Partner with your child to come up with a solution.
Distressing Situations for Online Targets
Dr. Ybarra notes that the majority of youth are not affected negatively by cyber bullying. Some are, however. It's important to talk to your children about how they feel about the experience and help them deal with any negative feelings they may have as a result.
Characteristics of Online Targets
Seventy percent of online targets are 14 years and older. In 1999, the Youth Internet Safety Survey revealed that 6 percent of youth report being harassed online in the previous year. Of those who report being bullied online: 48 percent are female, and 33 percent report feeling distressed by the incident. Most episodes occurred in instant messaging (33 percent), chat rooms (32 percent), and emails (19 percent). Fortunately, 76 percent of those harassed online report the incident to a friend, parent, or person of authority.
Characteristics of Children Who Bully Online
Children who bully online tend to be older than those who bully in person. Traditional bullying peaks in middle school and drops off during the high school years. According to the 1999 Youth Internet Safety Survey, 52 percent of online bullies are older adolescents between the ages of 15 and 17 years, and 54 percent are male. Less than one third (28 percent) of bullies were known to the victims offline before the event.

4 BEST MARIO EVER!!!!!!!!Posted: 18/03/2010im not sure ENY mario game has come near this game graphics and gameplay wise they are amazin close to xbox i would say there are lots of levels and worlds compared to the ds version the 2 player can get extremly frustrating and that is the only reason why i put this game as a 4 star not 5 star with is disapointing because i would love to put 5 star because it is a amazing game you just do not know what is coming around the corner every world every level is different unlike the ds version witch is a bit repetative and there is a little suprise at the end but i will not spoil it for you all in all this game is a must have!!!!!!
5 SIMPLY ADDICTIVEPosted: 17/03/2010this game is soo addictive because there is just so much to do on every world and every level there are new paths to find everywhere and the thing that keeps me playing on it is trying to collect all of the coins this is a awsome pick up and play game not once has it crossed my mind to trade this game in for a new one because i would be lost with out it so this game is a must buy for EVERY ds/dsi owner!!!!!!!
2 OVER RATED!!!!!!!!Posted: 16/03/2010the only reason why i bought this game was because it was like (5 STAR FOR THE AVATAR GAME) but its not i dont really like the way the story line DOES NOT follow the real story line from the movie. the gameplay is alright for both RDA and AVATAR but the map on story mode is restricted to one small path and its hard to get around to check points and when you do get to them and complete the mission you have to travel like a million miles to the next checkpoints but u do have these hores that you can travel on (if u are a avatar) but they are hard to control and the gameplay can glitch sometimes and if you are thinking that this game is easy achivements WRONG they are all secret achivement this secret achivement that. over all dont buy this game for over 20 quid AND AS I SAY IN THE TITLE THIS GAME IS VERY OVERATED so buy this if u want but i would NOT recomend this game

RB ranks thinned as Arrington cut
This may further explain why the Broncos drafted Knowshon Moreno.
The Broncos released J.J. Arrington on Wednesday after it was determined the running back will need season-ending microfracture surgery on his troublesome right knee. Arrington, who was slated to become the Broncos' third-down back after he was signed away from the NFC champion Arizona Cardinals, had been trying to recover from offseason arthroscopic knee surgery performed by an Arizona surgeon. As Arrington struggled to regain strength in his knee, the Broncos used the No. 12 pick last month to select Moreno, a running back from the University of Georgia. Arrington will go down as the tailback the Broncos once badly wanted but never had. On Feb. 27, the opening of free agency, the Broncos and Arrington reached an agreement in principle on a four-year, $10 million contract that included a $3 million guarantee in signing bonus and salary. http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_12461192 I wonder if he already has his plane ticket to Houston yet. |

Product Differentiation for Software-as-a-Service Providers

The market for the new provisioning type Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has reached a significant size and still shows enormous growth rates. By varying size of SaaS products, providers can improve their market position and profits by successfully acting in the tension area of customer acquisition, pricing and costs. We first elaborate differences concerning product differentiation between classic software provisioning models and SaaS. Then, we introduce a micro-economic based decision model to maximize the return of a provider by finding an optimal granularity, i.e. by varying the size of services. This paper makes two contributions in this context: (1) it provides a conceptual foundation for product differentiation within the scope of SaaS and (2) it presents the first implementation of variable reproduction costs for web based software offers. The model is illustrated by a real world case with data from a SaaS provider.

What is going on with the popular section of DA the Front Page?
They use to have decent stuff and everyday I found a few things I liked. Then recently it looks like it has been drawn by 12 year olds. I hardly see the usual "popular artists" (those same artists that make the front page every other day). It's just irritating because I see photos taken of Bratz dolls, demotivationals, horrible cosplay photos, stupid emo ass poems, artwork by 12 year olds apparently, and of course, the crass vajayjay shots turned black and white to make look "artistic".
Can DA not monitor this and at least make sure this crap stays off the front page? I expect to actually see quality artwork, amazing traditional art, stunning photography, and beautiful digital works. Whatever is going needs to be fixed ASAP.
And it gets more annoying for decent artists who get about 3 favs per deviation and less than 30 views and these facebook snapshots are pulling in crazy amounts of favs/views.
I'm just really confused as to why I am seeing this on the front page everyday I check it. I think I'm going to stop looking, because I know there are amazing artists on this site, I watch them!!
Is everyone else seeing what I'm seeing or am I having a glitch like everyday? lol (I even checked to make sure I wasn't on "newest" thats how bad this artwork on the front page is currently).

A chart made the rounds last week that purported to prove Nouriel Roubini and David Rosenberg are excellent contrary indicators as relates to the stock market. The chart was simply the S&P500 annotated with alleged market commentary by the pair — bearish at the lows, bullish at the highs. It eventually made its way over to the estimable Doug Kass, who posted it. (Mr. Kass had no part in the chart's creation, and this is not a quibble with his decision to post it. Further, I'm a big fan of his contrarian style.)
The truth — at least as it relates to Rosie — tells a bit of a different story. In March of 2009 — on the 4th, to be precise — Dave was "looking for reasons to turn bullish" and "believe[d] the stage [was] being set for sentiment to become completely washed out, which is what it takes for contrarians to become constructive."
Below is a page from his report that day (highlights were made by me three years ago and not for this post):

The shares of First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:FSLR - 29.61) have outperformed the S&P 500 Index (SPX) by more than 53 percentage points during the past couple of months, and continued to outshine most stocks yesterday. Against this backdrop, call volume popped on the solar concern -- meaning option traders are rolling the dice on additional upside, or short sellers are getting nervous and hedging their bearish bets.
By the close, FSLR had seen around 47,000 calls cross the tape -- more than twice its average daily call volume. For comparison, roughly 23,000 FSLR puts changed hands. Most active was the out-of-the-money January 35 call, which saw more than 3,500 contracts traded. The majority of the calls crossed at the ask price, and call open interest spiked overnight, suggesting the contracts were purchased to open.
More specifically, the calls changed hands at a volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $1.03, indicating a breakeven level of $36.03 (strike plus average premium paid) for the buyers. So, assuming the calls were purchased by "vanilla" option bulls, their goal is for FSLR to rally roughly 21.7% from current levels within the next couple of months. However, if the calls were bought by short sellers, their goal is for FSLR to retreat, and the options simply lock in an acceptable price at which to repurchase the shares, should the stock extend its uptrend.
Speaking of FSLR bears, there are plenty on Wall Street still skeptical of the equity's rally. Short interest accounts for more than 44% of FSLR's total available float, and would take more than a week to unwind, at the stock's average daily trading volume.
Elsewhere, just three out of 23 analysts deem FSLR worthy of a "buy" or better endorsement. Plus, the consensus 12-month price target on the outperformer sits at $23 -- representing a significant discount to the stock's closing price of $29.61 on Tuesday.
Should FSLR continue to fly in the face of pessimism, a capitulation by the bearish holdouts -- in the form of a short-squeeze situation, upgrades, or price-target hikes -- could add contrarian fuel to the security's fire.

(Washington, DC) A new study of how compound word formation is influenced by subtle forms of linguistic pressure demonstrates that words which "sound better" to the speakers of a language have a higher chance of being created, suggesting that, like biological organisms, words are subject to selection pressures that play a role in deciding which words become part of a language over time.
The study, "Grammars leak: Modeling how phonotactic generalizations interact within the grammar," to be published in the December 2011 issue of the scholarly journal Language, is authored by Andrew Martin, of the Laboratory for Language Development at the RIKEN Brain Science Center in Wako, Japan. A preprint version is available on line at: http://lsadc.org/info/documents/2011/press-releases/martin.pdf
Different languages are marked by the different restrictions they place on which sounds are permitted to occur in words. In English, for example, long consonants are not allowed within single morphemes (units of meaning), but they are permitted in compound words like bookcase, where two identical consonants are located next to each other across the boundary between the two morphemes. Compare the pronunciation of the /p/ in car pool versus carp poolthe two compound words differ only in the length with which the /p/ is held.
Before now, the rules in English that govern long consonants have been stated simply: they are forbidden within morphemes, but if a long consonant is created by combining two words to form a compound, then it's allowed. "In my paper, however, I present evidence from a corpus of written English that things are not so neatin fact, when English speakers create compounds, they tend to avoid creating compounds like bookcase that contain long consonants, even though these words are permitted by the rules of English" Dr. Martin commented.

Peter Thomas Roth At-A-Glance
Strengths: Provides complete ingredient lists on Web site; most products are fragrance-free; very good AHA products; wide selection of water-soluble cleansers and scrubs; some excellent sunscreens, benzoyl peroxide products, and many antioxidant-rich formulas.
Weaknesses: Expensive; mostly lackluster toners; mostly boring to potentially irritating masks; no BHA products that do not include at least one needless irritant; jar packaging.
Unique in the world of spa and salon specialty lines, Peter Thomas Roth is a large but straightforward line with mostly uncomplicated formulations that, for the most part, are quite good and state-of-the-art. Unlike many product lines, most of the acne, AHA, BHA, sunscreen, and moisturizing products contain what they should to be effective and helpful for skin.
A novel aspect of this line is that there are few (if any) nonsense ingredients. Roth products conspicuously lack the exotic, potentially irritating, sensitizing, and often unnecessary plant extracts and the irritating, fragrant plant oils that show up in most pricey skin-care lines, especially spa lines. Many of these products don't have fragrance, and they lack the long lists of ingredients that are often unnecessarily complicated. Even more impressive are the well-formulated cleansers, sunscreens, AHA products, and skin lighteners. The moisturizers have improved somewhat, and most are now packaged so that the light- and air-sensitive ingredients remain stable. In fact, Roth's packaging deserves special mention because it is exceptionally utilitarian and gender-friendly. No pretty pink bottles, sexy curved jars, or bejeweled caps—all of which reinforce the clinical nature of Peter Thomas Roth. Overall, this line should be admired for its simplicity and, for the most part, for its well-thought-out formulations.
After all that glowing praise there are a few embarrassing missteps to avoid, such as products that contain hydrogen peroxide, which can cause free-radical damage and hurt skin; irritating acne products that contain sulfur; unimpressive masks (odd for a spa-oriented line); and a bumper crop of products claiming to affect expression lines and wrinkles in a manner similar to cosmetic corrective procedures.
