Split, the town of hidden hotels
... going along at 90 kph which was the limit and I saw a police car coming up behind me. There ahead the speed dropped to 60 for some curves and here this copper is just about pushing me along the road. I sat at 60 as I did not want to get nicked for speeding and right here on this solid white line and on a totally blind bend this copper overtook me and off he went. Ten minutes later here he is sitting at the edge of the road watching the traffic!!! If that's how the cops ...

Phoenix Park
You'll find it in all the travel guides: this is Europe's largest city park and home of many fine sights. Oldest and grandest is Áras an Uachtaráin (pic), the Official Residence of the President of Ireland. You'll also find the residence of the American ambassor to Ireland nearby. Then there's Dublin Zoo, one of the oldest in the world: it was established in 1830. It has recently renovated and a very good (if dear: EUR12.50 for adults) sight to see with kids.
Of course, most of Phoenix Park is all about landscape and the sheer pleasure of walking/driving/riding around fields of green within the Dublin city limits. Take bus 10 from town and get off at the last stop: you're right at the Park's entrance!
Dublin by Gas Light
The phoenix park was one of the first places in the city to have street lighting. At the time these laterns were gas and a watchman had to go around and light each individual gas light. This practice was still in operation in the Phoenix park until the end of the 60's and early 70's. At that time the gas was replaced with electiric wiring and lights but the old victorian stand and laterns were retained. In more recent times many of the lights have been re-converted to gas which can be ignited automaticaly. This gives visitors a sense of the old gas lighting from the 19th centuary.
A word of caution though is not to stray too far into the park or off the main roads through it too late at night - like all parks its not very safe if travelling alone.

The Phoenix Park
This is reputed to be the largest urban enclosed park in Europe...unless, as they say, you know different ! It was originally an area known for its hunting and the park is currently home to a good number of deer that aren't likely to suffer the same fate as Bambi's mum !
The park houses the Dublin Zoo (one of the oldest in Europe) Its old victorian design can still be seen in the older buildings. The Azoo as Dubliners call it is being upgraded all the time and trying to create a better environment for its animals. Its well worth a visit and a high proportion of the entrance fee goes directly back to improvement of the Zoo.
The Park houses Aras an Uachtarain - this is the presidents residence, the police (Garda) headquarters, a militray barracks, victorian Tea rooms. Most of these are accessible via the Infirmery Rd / North Circular road entrance. As one goes further into the park towards Castleknock the park gives way to more open space, playing fileds and small wooded areas.
It is a great amenity enjoyed by Dubliners and visitors for many years. Like all parks it is not recommended on foot after dark but otherwise its a great place for a ramble, jogging, visiting the Azoo etc. and its worth the trip there.

Freudian pointy thing in Europes biggest park
Phoenix park claims to be the biggest urban park in Europe. At over 1,700 acres you can certainly feel that you are well away from the hub-hub and congestion of Dublin city.
It says alot about the politics of the Irish state that in this setting stands not only the home of the Irish Premier, but also the home of the U.S Ambassador.
The most obvious architectural feature in the park the is the tallest obelisk in Europe. It is 205 feet tall, and was intended to be taller but for a shortage of funds. Completed in 1861 it commemorates Wellington (The Iron Duke), who was actually Dublin Born and Bred. Having said that apparantly many Dubliners just refer to it as the 'Phoenix park monument'.
Wellington himself, commenting on his Dublin origins is quoted as saying "Just because you are born in a stable ...does not make you an ass".
(Perhaps he missed the fact that the most famous person in history was born in a stable)
There are also four bronze plaques cast from cannons captured at Waterloo - three of which has pictorial representations of his career while the fourth has an inscription.
Asia and Europe, saved by thee, proclaim
(Soubugger : No Boasting then ?)
Invincible in war thy deathless name,
Now round thy brow the civic oak we twine
That every earthly glory may be thine.
If ever you wanted an example of an Alpha-male in life - then here you have it.
Even after his demise his erection soars over the park.
- Architecture
My main piece of advice about Pheonix Park would be: if you are staying in the city centre GET THE BUS! Seriously, it didn't look that far on the map but it seemed to take me hours to walk there on my first visit and by the time I arrived I was far too fed up and knackered to be bothered walking round the park very far!! So it was kind of a waste of time! I did however return [by bus!] on my most recent trip to Dublin and had a much more pleasant time here!
I knew the park was big but it seemed even bigger than I imagined and very spread out with roads through the middle etc.. In fact its the biggest enclosed city park in Europe. It was originally a Royal Hunting Park but was opened to the public back in 1745 and made a National Historic Park in 1986.
There is a zoo, Papal cross and various other sites within the park boundaries.. And sports such as Gaelic football, hurling and horseracing all take place here..
The main photo is of the Wellington Memorial, the tallest Obelisk in Europe.
Phoenix Park
With an area of around 707 hectares, Phoenix Park in Dublin is one of the largest parks of any European city. The park is not named, as some may think, in favour of the legendary bird but is a corruption of "fionn usige", which is Gaelic for "clear waters". I remember being here all the time when I was younger with family when we used to go over and visit for 4-6 weeks every year. We would ALWAYS find ourselves back here at this spot - after a daily pub crawl, quite naturally, not that I was drinking back then!! Here you can visit the third oldest zoo in the world, Dublin Zoo (see tips) or can just relax on the grass, its not like you could not find a spot. The park is about 11 km in circumference and includes part of the Liffey valley.
Phoenix Park
VT-member Anne Marie took me to Phoenix Park, a place I had never been to before in Dublin. She told me we would probably see some deer and we did. There is a herd of 400 – 450 deer in the park, and they are the descendants of a herd introduced already when the park was established in the 1660s.
Phoenix Park is a very large park, it is 709 hectares. Here you find a visitor centre, gardens, Dublin Zoo, many monuments and large areas to play in or spread your blanket for a picnic and rest. You can also rent bikes in the park.
Phoenix Park
After accidentally visiting the War Memorial Garden, I asked someone how to get to Phoenix Park and headed there on foot, by the time I got there I was tired of walking as I had to walk the length of the park to find an entrance into the park. I did walk up to where the zoo was but I didn't get much further as I finally spotted the Dublin Bus and hopped back on. The stop for the Dublin Bus here isn't marked at all because of a park restriction against bus pickups or some such silliness, I presume they think you are going to get off and get back on and you would know where it was, not walk from the Kilmainham Gaol.
Phoenix Park is Europe's largest walled garden at 1,750 acres, it was originally intended as a deer park for Charles II. The park gets it's name from Phoenix House, the original residence of the British viceroys, which appears to no longer exist. At the entrance on the east side of the garden, there's the People's Garden with some lovely flower beds and in the same general area there's a large obelisk which is a monument to the Duke of Wellington, who was born in Dublin, commemorating his victories including that over Napoleon at Waterloo.
This map is actually easier to look at than the ones on the official Phoenix Park website, you can see that there is a lot of the park that is just open space and that most of the things to see are on the east side near the People's Garden.
Phoenix Park
The Phoenix Park is twice the size of New Yorks' central park. It is home to The President of Ireland, see my other tips on the Presidents House. The American Ambassador to Ireland and the Zoo. During the weekend in summertime you can see a game of Gaelic Football, cricket ,soccer and polo. It has many momuments and it really is a lovely place to go for a stroll. Although at night is can be a dangerous place and if your thinking of pitching a tent, think again. The park also has rangers who patrol the park during the day. The park also contains a visitors centre beside a 17th Century Castle, although it is very small and personally speaking not worth paying to go inside. You will also find a small cafe and the food is cheap and delicious. If you want to learn more about what's in the park the visitors center will provide all the information and for 2.75 will show you a video, although its out dated its still very cheap and informative.

Phoenix Park
Phoenix Park is located just outside Dublin. Its area of 712 hectares make it the largest park of the city and the largest enclosed urban public park in Europe. Its name could come from Fionn Uisce, "Clear water", referring to an ancient source.
The 60-metre obelisk where I am portrayed with some course mates is the Wellington Testimonial, erected by Sir Robert Smirke in 1817 to honour the Dubliner Sir Arthur Wellesley (1769-1852), better known as the Duke of Wellington, who defeated Napoleon in Waterloo.
Phoenix Park
The Phoenix Park is huge. It contains Dublin Zoo, Aras an Uachtaran (Residence of the Irish President), the American Ambassador's residence, Office of Irish Ordinance Surveys, Irish Police HQ, Ashtown Castle, Farmleigh House (where prominent foreign politicians stay, when hosted by the Irish Govt), playing fields, the Papal Cross and St. Mary's hospital.
It's also the place where I learned to drive :)
Up towards the north-west end of the park, you will see lots of squirrels and deer running around freely, so be careful if you're driving up around that way. The deer are relatively tame and it is easy to take pics of them, but keep your distance from them.
Not recommended you go in there at night, as the park has an unsavoury reputation for dogging, gay cruising, and knacker-drinking.

Phoenix Park
Phoenix Park is one of the world's largest parks within a city. As many other parks in the British islands, it began as hunting grounds and was cut to its present size through the centuries. But unlike Hyde Park or some other of the better known parks, it retained much of its original size and variety in nature, including some wild deer. Its name does not come from the fabulous bird, but from Irish "fionn uisce" which means clear water.
Although most of the area is covered by grass and wood, some beautiful gardens can be found within the park as well as Dublin zoo. Phoenix Park is rich in monuments and if you like to look for small oddities and commemorative plaques, you will find many of them along the major paths. Larger monuments include the Victory monument of the Duke of Wellington (which fortunately didn't suffer the same fate as the one of its contra-napoleonic fellow at O'Connell street) and the Papal Cross. Some buildings worth to mention are the US embassy, the residence of the Irish president, a couple of government buildings an even an official visitor center.
Phoenix park is located around 3 km west of the city centre. This does not seem to be a lot, but add the size of the park to it and the distance you'll have to walk will multiply. That said, if you are not really crazy for walking, you should consider the bus. And please keep in mind that the park is walled. That means that you will have to look for an entrance to get into the park. The most convenient entrance for me was at Infirmary Road/Conyngham Road, close to River Liffey. For further information or at least alternative entrances, you should consider a map. Some can be downloaded on the homepage of Phoenix Park.
Phoenix Monument
Phoenix Monument in Phoenix Park is a Corinthian column with a phoenix bird rising from the ashes at its pinnacle. Erected by the Earl of Chesterfield who opened "Phoenix" Park to the people of Dublin it may be a wrong monument because irishs say the name of the park come from the gaelic "Fion Uisce" which means "clear water" and not Phoenix by the mitologycal bird but Chesterfield didnt know gaelic and put the monument as he understood in english.
Phonix Park
1 Biggest city park in the world....(bigger than central park
2 Theres around 600 wild deer in it......
3 Dublin zoo is located there. www.dublinzoo.ie
Very nice park......nice to walk around.....safe enough during the day but a no go area at nite.....
Another Obelisk
I saw this obelisk in Phoenix Park. It seems every major city I've visited has an Obelisk. This one is the Wellington Monument, built to commemorate the victories of the 'Iron Duke' Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, who was born in Dublin. The memorial is the tallest obelisk in Europe. It stands 205 feet tall (taller than the one in Paris) and was intended to be taller but for a shortage of funds. It was completed in 1861.
Phoenix Park is 1,760 acres and is reputed to be the largest enclosed urban park in the world. While it is popularly assumed that it was named after the mythical bird, most Irish experts believe the name may be derived from "Fion Uisce which means "clear water".
It's not unusual to see deer grazing on it's lawns.

Poll: Majority of voters back immigration reform
The entire country is debating immigration reform, but a new poll showed that a majority of Americans are ready for Congress to act.
According to Fox News, 81 percent of Democrats, 74 percent of Independents and 73 percent of Republicans want immigration reform to happen.
Seventy-four percent of voters favor trying to find a way for the millions of illegal immigrants who are already in the country to remain here and eventually gain citizenship if they meet certain requirements.
Eighty-three percent of white Republicans over the age of 65 are part of the demographic which most likely vote for strengthening border security.
Seventy-nine percent of non-white Democrats under the age of 30 tend to vote towards giving illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.
The Senate will officially start debate for an immigration reform bill in the coming weeks. This bill would create tighter border security and a way for undocumented immigrants already in the country to gain citizenship.

Beautiful. A poem that isn't quite a poem. I like to write these, but I am not as good at it as you are.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm sure your writing is awesome too, I'll go and check it out =3
That was beautifully written, and I think, one of the best short stories I've seen on here so far. I can't really describe what I felt when I read that. Only certain stories can touch people in that way. Very, very good job! Keep it up! ~God bless
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! Glad you liked my story and that it was good enough to touch you! =3 Thank you again!

30 year old woman | Dayton, OH, USA | Seeking men 27-35 within 30 miles
Single charismatic 28 year old woman looking for a motivated, fun, goal oriented, man to share my time with.
My friends tell me i am the nicest and most giving person they have ever met. But then again they are my friends so they are going to say nice things about me lol. I am a single mom to a very energetic 9 year old boy. I enjoy watching him play sports. In my free time i enjoy hanging out with my girlfriends and their kids. I enjoy going out to dinner although i shouldn't do it as often as i do. My escape from the world and the issues in life is to go to the gym and run or work out in my yard and garden (yep i am an old lady at heart lol). I dont go out very often,maybe once a month or so, as that really isnt my lifestyle and plus it is hard to get a sitter. Im looking for a man that is fun, energetic, has goals in life and strives to achieve them, independent, likes kids etc.
Aerobics, Auto racing / Motorcross, Basketball, Cycling, Hockey, Running, Soccer, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines

I am a real estate consultant for the past 21 years. I have lived in Los Angels since 1975 and been at my current home since 2004 and love it. My home is my haven and I treat it as such and would love to share it if the right opportunity presents itself. I love living in Silver lake, its where i grew up and went to high school down the street " Marshall High" ,where they filmed the last scene of the movie Greece. I love this site and had great people stay with me from all over the place. So we can be clear regarding pets, it all depends on what it is and the size of it. I am more inclined toward a cat or a very small dog ( with additional dep.)
I require a connection 1st on any of the social media sites before I say yes to the person interested in renting.

Some "Good" Morning music
I saw a light, just up ahead
But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed
I'm not alone, and then I am
'Cause people seem to think I'm superman
But I watch for the love
I'm living in the day of the eagle
Eagle, not the dove
It's like a weight that brings me down
If I don't move, I'm on the ground
It's in my mind, it's in my soul
It's telling me the things I can't be told
It's a watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle
Eagle, not the dove
Another day, another night
I want to love, they want to fight
I need the time, I got to be alone
I got to meet a lover on my own
But I watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle
Eagle, not the dove

Wow well I got there in the end. Took me quite a while to read as RL has been taking up most of my time lately. So Shep is finally rid of that woman and can get on with his life, and hopefully new love. Sarayah certainly seemed worse than a cockroach. Kept coming back just as I thought she was gone for good. Even right up until the end I thought she'd make a comeback somehow. Glad she didn't. Thanks for writing this wonderful tale and hope you write some more SGA eventually.
| Guest chapter 78 . 2/17
I just spent the better part of a week reading this story. I was so excited when I saw 78 chapters. I don't know how you do it but you did it again. By the way I loved Liv and how she is a match for John. Thank you for sharing your talent. S.
| Mary chapter 78 . 12/11/2014
Great wrap to a great story. Loved it! It was good to see John win out in the end.
| Mystic chapter 78 . 12/10/2014
Thank you for the huge effort you put into this story. I think that you are a remarkable writer and would read anything that you wrote. Off course that you write so well about beloved characters and really capture them is a bonus. I think I am not just speaking for myself when I say, more pleaseee!
| Guest chapter 78 . 12/9/2014
Great ending. Loved the whole story.
| SGAForever1985 chapter 78 . 12/9/2014
Wonderful! What an amazing story. You had me gripped from the very first words of Deliverance right up to the end of this fifth installment. God bless you and your talent. I pray you realize just what a gift your talent is and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing it with us. Happy Holidays and a blessed New Year. I hope to be seeing something else from you soon.

That was a gruesome yet fitting way to go. I loved the Terminator/Carrie touch. And finally, FINALLY, Sheppard gets the girl. We all know that TstoopidPTB wanted the nerd/geek to get the girl essentially living out their own little fantasies with the whole McKeller thing. Ooh, don't get me started on how they done in Weir and Beckett. Grr. Anyway, I feel this strange admixture of relief and loss now that Sarayah is finally pushing up the daisies - don't forget to water the flowers, Sheppard! Butbutbut - what is a whumper to do now without Sarayah around to beat the living whatsit out of our fave woobie?! Sniff. Oh, well. At least our boy lives to be whumped another day. In the meantime, he has a love interest. About bloody time. Awww. Bless! Maybe Liv is a whumper? She did smack his arm after all! I should lend her my riding crop... XD. So is this new ship to be known as shliv? Long live shliv! Long live shliv! Other than that - the whole ology was absolutely brilliant from beginning to end. All 1,071,116 or so words of it. Yes, I whipped out the calculator. Think I got it right even though calculators don't like me very much though I admit the dislike is mutual. I get different results every time. They are tricksy. *narrows eyes* Bottom line - over a million words you shared with us. Thank you so much for writing this! I don't know what will fill the void for us all in the meantime, so let it be known I shall be poking you from time to time about a sequel to The Three Gates or that other magnum opus you mentioned, but for now - enjoy your well-deserved break! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours - and get cracking on another Shep whumpy fan fic first thing in 2015, missus! Firstest first thing! *winks*
| zohsy chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
Awesome story! Enjoyed it thoroughly and look forward to your next story! :)
| Deb chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
Awesome, awesome story. Loved every minute of it right up to the happy ending...well, John at least seems to be on his way there right? He and Liv make a cute couple. I sure hope they find a way to make it work.
Happy Holidays and thanks for all the hard work you put into this. It's been quite a ride!
| warshipShepp chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
WOW what a great job... You are so talented... I read that final chapter slowly I didn't want it to end, But I wanted to know how it turned out... LOL Again great job 3 3
| sheppardlover928 chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
Oh, wow! I knew it was coming..but it's the end! I have loved this story initially as a Shep whump lover, but your writing, storyline and its complexity pulled me in and had me hanging on every word. At times I think I identified with Sarayah, though most of the time I just thought she was an extremely sadistic, crazy bitch! LOL! I have always loved how your portray John, in his strengths and in his weaknesses...you weren't afraid to show those but always gave them dignity...even in his darkest times, John is honest, stoic and humble, amongst other redeeming qualities that make me love his character! I love how you portray all the main characters and even the ones you introduced as your own, like Alishia and then Liv...I am so happy that John has not been so damaged by Sarayah and has found that he can find love. Bittersweet feelings here..sorry to see the end of a wonderful story but glad Sarayah is truly gone and John has a bright future. I hope you have many more SGA stories to write..perhaps one with John and Liv! (Hint, hint!). Kudos my friend and thanks for the epic journey!
| SGA-SAF chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
This was a great ending to an awesome tale! I almost felt sorry for Sarayah there. Almost. And finally John gets a someone too. Though dumping the fiance via e-mail? Harsh...lol. I thoroughly enjoyed every part of this Saga and would buy the novels. Hehe. AWESOME JOB! And merry xmas to you. Hope to read more from you in the future!
| parisindy chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
Who hoooo! *applaudes loudly*
Thank you for all
Your work!
| LeePee chapter 78 . 12/8/2014
Yay! John got the girl! I always hated that he had no one at the end of Season 5 and you've fixed it for me. Now whenever I watch Enemy at the Gate I'll just imagine Liv is waiting for him somewhere on Earth after they land Atlantis in San Francisco Bay... Great end to the story. Is it bad that I actually felt a little bit sorry for Sarayah? :-S I think she loved John in her sick and very twisted little way. So it's all over. Now what will I have to look forward to each week? *sobz* Have a great Christmas. You deserve a break after this but not for too long (hint hint!)

wow sheppard finally found somebody i love it :)

More security than fanboys... That's gotta be embarrassing.
£200 tablet with multi-user!
I'd rush right out and buy one if I didn't already have one!
I hope the app devs have been following the rules and guidelines correctly so my Angry birds scores are protected from the missus!
IIRC, Google announced the N7 would get the 4.1.2.
It's not really an odd thing for Asus to announce, someone probably ask them about it, so they answered.
Doubt it has much, if anything, to do with the iPad mini news (which from what I have seen is "Smaller queues than usual for Apple device"). The N7 already kicks it about with the existing facts and figures. Hardly need multiuser support to do that. Although having said that, getting some Android coverage from El Reg is quite something - This site pretty much slept through the Google announcement last Monday with one single, very short, copy/paste article.
It might have been out for several weeks, but it took its sweet time getting to some of us. It took a week from first reports to reaching my N7 in the UK despite me pressing the check button at least twice a day.
I know seven days is a hell of a lot better than you get for the non-Nexus devices, but it was frustrating not knowing when it was going to be my turn, others in the UK got it within days.
Worth the short wait though. It might not have had many headline features (home screen rotation was about it), but it seems to have fixed the right hand side of touch screen becomes unresponsive issue I had seen (a quick off/on used to clear it, so I was 99% sure if was a software issue).
One man's fragmentation is another's consumer choice.
A Fandroid decides if he wants his chosen OS on a phone with an SD card or not. He chooses the screen size he wants, if he wants a real keyboard or just a virtual one. FM radio? NFC? Or maybe he fancies a stylus... etc.. etc.
A Fruitdroid just crosses his fingers the great west coast oracle will give him what he was missing with the last model, and when it doesn't he still queues up and buys it.
With NASA out of the running, the El Reg special projects bureau could be a world leader!
So Apple can't edit a simple website page in under 14 days?
Maybe Samsung should think about using that their next laptop ad...
"Why take 14 days to edit your website, the new Intel i7 powered Samsung XYZ can do it in minutes"
I was expecting a little more in the shape of a contempt of court charge. Maybe they decided to give them one last chance to get it right before hitting them with that.
Given the minimal coverage the Google multi-launch has received here, I suspect you could be right.
They managed to keep the buy-out from The Guardian pretty quiet didn't they!
At last, El Reg reports on the actual launch which world+dog (including the BBC) has covered all day.
Pity Google don't seem to deserve the 1 article per device/minor feature the apple event received.
How about a mention of Android 4.2's tablet-tastic multiuser support? In my household that is going to be a rather big deal.
Apple ban El Reg from their events and gets months of pre and post launch coverage.
Google, as far as I know, haven't banned El Reg, but cancelled their event for sensible safety reasons, and have still announced the products they were going to unveil at the cancelled event.
El Reg's coverage, bugger all.
Even the BBC have managed to cover it before you!
Hang your moth-eaten vulture head in shame!
Can't disagree with you there... They say St Jobs had a hand in the design, what did he do? Hide any of the real designers tools which weren't comprised purely of right angles?
Indeed.... Even after googling "Hollyhock" I was still bemused! Possibly not the best choice for colour identification!
You could always have a go at writing the apps yourself... The Android dev software and platform emulator is completely free, has good online docs and will run on any Mac, Linux and Windows.
The name "Corolla" has been sold on a car more than any other model, but beyond the badge I don't think the range have anything else in common! They've even changed from rear to front wheel drive!
The VW Beetle is probably a better example of a single model.... Right up until they stuck a Beetle shaped body on a Golf a few years back.
The width could be an issue though. The N7 just slips into the back pocket of my jeans. I doubt an ipad mini would.
Thank you for your detailed and in-depth review. You've obviously spent a lot of time with an N7.
Although I think you might have missed a couple of things. In my comparatively short time with my N7 16g (couple of months) I have used it for the following:
Teamviewer/VNC/RDP remote control
FTP server for router firmware updates
FTP client
Email (both Gmail app, and other IMAP/POP based systems using K9)
Google calender
Catching up on the MotoGP via iPlayer (sideloaded flash whilst waiting for BBC to "sort their life out")
Much gamidge (okay, that's the missus - PvZ, All the angry birds, Bubble shoot, Draw Free, SongPop etc etc)
Beebroid BBC micro emulator - old scoolz! That's for me :-)
Radio when I'm in the bath via Absolute radio app
Showing semi-posted photographs to clients on the rather lovely screen (I do a sideline in photography)
It's been worth it's weight in gold when building PCs for referring to motherboard manuals when the original has been lost. No need to carry a laptop anymore.
Not to mention the old favourites of Skype (with video chat of course), facebook, twitter, and reading/writing drivel in the comments on El-Reg, with the swype keyboard.
Oh yes, I do have several browsers installed. Why? I've been known to do websites, so testing on other browsers is a good idea.
After all that, I've still got 10gig free, so I won't be rushing off to buy a 32gig when it comes out, although I might buy one for the missus.
Oh, and so far I haven't spent a penny on apps.
I don't know about you, but I prefer girlfriends which are less wide!
Glossy and low res... Even Apple have started to listen with their new iMacs being 75% less shiny!
Now you know why St Jobs wore the black turtle neck - it was the only thing which didn't reflect in his silly shiny screens!
Indeed... It's not like we haven't seen the old "sold out in x hours" and "sales exceeded all expectations" headline grabber once or five times before from certain tablet shifters.
A few thousand votes later and it is pretty much the same!
I went for Connery too, although wishing it was proportional representation so I could give 2nd choice to Craig, so I'm glad to see that he is indeed in second place.
You're both right.
I was a Symbian user for many years, the 7650, the 6600, N70, N95 and the infamous N97. I'm sure I've missed one.
Back in the early days it was simply superb, ground breaking in fact. Even the N95, which suffered from a shaky start (thanks to the availability of OTA updates making OS releases lazy and badly tested - we can fix it later) finally got its life in order.
Unfortunately they didn't learn from the N95's early days, and simply repeated the same with the N97, except they never did get it sorted, and various hardware problems doomed mine to be the only phone I replaced before the end of a contract.
Giving the networks control over OS update releases, and allowing them to customise them, was another huge mistake. Many later (aka fixed) versions never made it beyond the likes of Orange et al. It was possible to "jail-break" the phones and get them back to Vanilla firmware, but it was involved and beyond most.
IIRC, my N95 is currently running V31, most network tied handsets didn't make it beyond V12, and it is a great backup phone with wifi and Opera mini browser if required, sure it's not a touch screen, but 99% of the time you just want a phone and maybe an mp3 player (which the microSD handles perfectly). It does both perfectly. In an emergency you can web browse and it still has full offline maps (something I still miss).
So yes, rather a quaint OS, but functional in most incarnations, and it still had a trick no other smartphone OS has so far matched, namely the ability to go for many days without running for a charger!
and badly kerned too!
"The move may also throw a bit of a wrench in plans by AT&T and other US network operators to implement a "six strikes and you're out" policy on piracy, which is due to take effect by the end of the year. Tracking IP addresses of Pirate Bay users is going to be key to the RIAA and MPAA's enforcement efforts, and that task looks to have become significantly harder with the latest Brahman bootstrapping."
It won't make the blindest bit of difference. The MPAA/RIAA don't rely on physical access to the server to track people on a torrent. All you have to do is start to download it yourself, and ta-da, you have a nice list of IP addresses of people giving you bits of the torrent.
Automating this process is already widely used in the anti-piracy circles.
Good to see the 7650, still got one of those. I seem to remember the N-gage being nothing more than a standard Symbian phone with a different case. I think it was identical to the 6600 hardware (still got one of those somewhere too!).
...with tyre sizes?
Didn't work... So here we still are with width (mm) profile (%age) rim diameter (inches).
And long may it continue!
I want those down votes expunged from the record after the price and spec are announced ok? :-P
Oh, and to the OP... hold back on the N7, looks like a 32gig is in the wings at 16gig price.
And which timezone?!
MS are going to have to pull some serious wedges of cash out of their back pocket and drop it in front of many reporters to get any kind of headline coverage from the sheeple press.
Well at the way things are going it won't be long before micro SD's exceed that... Not that you'll be looking at the fruity firm for that solution though...
Get the Nexus 7... There is no way Apple will make a comparable device for that money. They're famous for their huge margins, and far too proud to be seen to mix it up with the great unwashed low margin tablets.
Seeing as Apple blank you, why don't you do the same... "seeing as how it's sure to be bleated far and wide by a herd of helpful live-bloggers. ®"
Agreed! 7 days with mcafee would feel like a life time!
Looks like it! I think it heard my threat of rooting, because about 30 mins ago it popped up a notification of an update.
Yay \o/ rotation front screen :-)
Still a bit crap that it didn't arrive until 7 days after the code was release to AOSP... You wouldn't think Google would have a shortage of server capacity would you!
A little unfair to blame the tablet for bad third party apps. Most of the apps I use look and work fine, although there are a few which are nothing more than the ipad app ported over by a lazy developer who has probably never used an Android device in his life.
Skype works fine, video chat, no problem.
Flash + iPlayer... Well the latter depends on the former, and the very i-centric BBC have been incredibly slow in getting a non-flash HTML5 version out for v4+ Androids. You can however sideload flash and iPlayer. It works for me.
If you need your plants and zombie in HD, message the developers. Same goes for all the other apps. The more complaints/requests they get, the more likely they are to notice the huge market.
Ummm, thanks, but I've been doing that daily since the middle of last week.
Also moved onto the flushing and terminating the Google framework too.
Still "up to date" with 4.1.1 :-(
I'm starting to worry something is broken/corrupt... To root and do it manually or not... hmmm...
N7 4.1.2 update? UK? Out?
I must admit I'm a little disappointed after the "Nexus devices get updates really really fast" reputation. If I had rooted and installed Cyanogenmod I would have 4.1.2 by now... Which is really defeating the whole benefit of having a Nexus device.
Anyway, back to the main story... iPad mini... It'll sell bucket loads to the usual suspects and general sheeple consumers (of which there are many).
True, but I think it needs clogs, tulips and a few windmills to be conclusive.
Are you sure that was over Holland? The advert at the end if for a Model event in Vienna, and the flag on the retrieval buggy was decidedly Austrian.
The US IP system is totally screwed. Unless El Reg have glossed over some important detail and successfully trolled me, there is *nothing* new or innovative about this.
It is simply a file being encrypted and then decrypted/verified by software on a bit of hardware.
Just like Bluray players, the original iPod lock in, etc etc etc...
Sure it wasn't a shark with a laser?
"Relax, Daleks are useless without their eye. More importantly, did it come alone?"
Hmmm, I'm still not going to risk going near the plunger.
Ah, I see it's care in the community day for the humour bypass patients again.
"I wish they had made a small and a large version of the iPhone; that would have been great for me. Keep the aspect ratio the same, horizontal and vertical the same, but just grow it in the other way," he says.
Careful Woz... I think Samsung might have a patent on that... Note 2, S3, S3 mini....
I had the misfortune to own a N97. Whilst it wasn't all bad, the most annoying thing was the lack of support, and impression that Nokia had just taken the money and run.
The N97 was the first phone I dumped before the excessively long contract had expired. It was consigned to a draw and replaced with an Android powered HTC Desire Z (yes, I like slide out keyboards) a few month before the Elop hit. I use my trusty old N95 as my backup phone when a go off doing things which might break a phone and would rather it wasn't my 'droid.
So it didn't really matter what platform Nokia went with, my disillusion was with their support, and attitude (I got moderated in their forum for disrespecting Nokia for posting a list of valid and accurate faults).
...to hope there'll be a terrible technical hiccup and the rocket misses the rendezvous completely and sends her barrelling off into deep space in radio silence?
It's actually an even worse comparison than that. Camera flash power is rated in watt/seconds. For example my camera strobes range from 80-120 watt/seconds.
Doesn't sound like much, but when you consider that is all delivered in 1/1000th second, the brightness for that fraction of a second is equivalent to a 80,000-120,000 watt light source. Not something you can power constantly from a coin cell battery in your average laser pointer. A camera flash will take several seconds to recover from that and recharge the capacitor ready for the next 1/1000th second of brightness.
Polarising would cut out some light (from all sources), but which way is the laser pointer polarised? Most aren't.
Even if they were, which way depends how you've pulled it out of your pocket.
So polarising the screen will be no more help than tinting it, cutting out a percentage of all light making everything darker, although it might make the blues of the sky and reflections on the sea look prettier.
One handed from a motorcycle? Are you staring in the next bond movie or something? I assume it's your left hand too (unless you wanted the bike to slow down?).
For a start I do live near an air field, quite a few in fact. The East of England built a lot in the 1940s. One of them is rather large and called London Stansted. Whilst I'll concede that assuming you could aim and hit a moving aircraft with a pointer this would be a risk to a light aircraft, the story is written in such a way as to make you believe the treat is real to 747s, not light aircraft which don't tend to do much night flying.
The story has other inconsistencies too. The whole "power" of a laser is its small concentrated beam. We're talking about a device whos power is measured in milliwatts and run constantly from a watch battery power source for hours on end. Suddenly saying this concentrated beam lights up the entire cockpit like a flash gun, a device which is run from a bank of much larger batteries, via a fast discharge capacitor and then discharged through a zenon tube which delivers more light that a 10,000watt light source for a thousandth of a second. Yes the laser could be defused by the window, but then the inverse square law dictates the power drops to negligible.
So which is it? Does the laser surgically burn the pilots retina off, or does the cockpit light up like a Christmas tree?
Yes, a hovering helicopter would be an easier target, but tell me, what is he going to crash into in those few seconds it take to look away from the idiot with the very steady hand holding the pointer? He's hovering! He might drift a bit, but he's not going to fall from the sky! I might even knock his night vision down a peg or two, but do you know the requirements for a night pilot licence? Yup, instrument only.
I file the laser pointer threat along with the mobile phone threat. They're annoying, but hardly the "we're all gonna die" "Won't someone think of the children?" reaction we're seeing. Otherwise we'd be surrounded by twisted wreckage.
1) You're hand holding a light source and trying to aim it at a point 500 feet away (try it)
2) The point you are aiming at it moving...
3) Even if you could manage 1 & 2, and had a pointer powerful enough, automatic landing systems have been in use for decades. The pilots are only there for situations where the automatic systems can't handle it (and to be honest, most pilots are too inexperienced to do anything better than the automatic systems anyway!).
Having said all that, the twats on the ground should get a good clip round the ears for even trying it.

New member with greenhouse questions
Hi all, I'm new to posting here, and have sooo many questions. We've been looking to get a greenhouse for about a year, and think we're leaning towards a Grandio Elite. It's 10mm twin wall polycarbonate; we want to use it year round. It has roof vents, but we'd need to install a lower louver and possibly an exhaust fan??? Just not sure what all we need to do for proper ventilation. Those of you with greenhouses, do you love them, hate them, somewhere in between? And anybody have any experience with the Grandio greenhouses?
Thanks for any input you might have, this is a whole new learning curve!
Hello, I'm very new to growing in a greenhouse as well but will tell you what I've learned so far. As far as basic ventilation you want your ventilation fan at the highest point as possible,and your shutter intake at the lowest possible point opposite side of the fan. The exhaust fan should change the air in the greenhouse in 1-1/2 minutes. Fan capacity is rated in Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM). For your correct fan size in CFM, calculate your greenhouse Volume: lengthÃÂwidthÃÂheight, then pick the correct fan and vent to achieve.

Yikes! 8 Brutally Honest Signs You NEED To Dump Him
By Lois Tarter
Sometimes we get so used to being in a relationship with someone—even a bad relationship— that we forget what it felt like when things were good. It's almost as if we're so blinded by love that even though there are lots of problems, we still avoid them. And when we do see them, we sometimes don't do anything.
If we're totally honest with ourselves, there are many signs that a breakup could be imminent. While cheating is obviously a huge reason to end a relationship, it isn't the only one. So just what are the signs?
1. He takes you for granted.
You're with the wrong person when they don't give as much as you're giving in the relationship. It can be something as small as them showing up late all of the time to meet you. You want to feel like you're respected and appreciated.
2. When it comes to sex, you feel absolutely nothing.
Feeling so far removed from your sex life is a MAJOR red flag. Instead of making love, it just feels like routine. Sex without intimacy or an emotional connection is just a recipe for disaster.
3. You never communicate with each other.
When the communication between two people is over, the relationship is as well.
4. Your self-esteem is at an all-time low.
There is no question that if you keep giving in to stay together even though your partner treats you badly, you will end up losing a lot more than your self-esteem.
5. You feel smothered.
When your partner gets the feeling that you're trying to leave, he will try to pull you closer by convincing you that there's nothing wrong with your relationship. Eventually, you will start to feel smothered.
6. You are growing apart.
Sometimes, as more time passes, the things that you once had in common may disappear.
7) You both forget important dates.
This one is a major. If you constantly forget important dates in your relationship (like anniversaries or birthdays), it's most likely a sign that you're not invested. Honestly, it's just a matter of time before it's over.
8. You stop talking about the future.
When you stop discussing future plans as a couple and only talk about the past, it's a sign that things will not progress any further in a positive way.
At the end of the day, when it comes to relationships, a breakdown in communication will almost always resort in danger. Being able to trust your partner to not only be there for you when you need him, but to also have your back should be at the core of every relationship.
13 Dating Horror Stories That'll Make You Scream
"Over drinks at a bar my date revealed many interesting details about himself. He used to live on 'the streets.' He claimed to have 'beat Spina Bifida.' He had had a fiancé in Japan who was open to him dating women while he was in the States. After all those amazing revelations I let him know our relationship would not be romantic. As we walked out of the bar he appeared to be suffering from some sort of stomach cramp. He told me he suffered from severe IBS and desperately needed a private bathroom. I have family members who suffer from Crohn's disease so I felt very sympathetic to his situation. I offered to let him use the bathroom in my apartment. After he had finished using the bathroom, he says, 'I know you said we could just be friends and that's fine. But, I was wondering if I could just watch you pee before I leave. I only want to watch.' P.S. — I did not let him watch me pee." -Miranda, 33

10.29.2014: This winter, Living Cully -- together with Clean Energy Works , MACG, Energy Trust of Oregon, Multnomah County Health Department and Portland Housing Bureau -- is supporting neighborhood stabilization and offsetting the pressures of gentrification in Cully through the Cully Weatherization 2.0 project. Cully Wx 2.0 builds off of 2010's Changing the Climate in Cully project, led by MACG.
After intensive neighborhood outreach, the project partners will launch a pilot weatherizing up to 100 single-family owner-occupied homes-with a focus on low- and moderate-income households and communities of color-to advance the benefits of carbon reduction, energy savings, workforce development and positive health outcomes.
To find out if you qualify for the Cully Weatherization 2.0 project, please contact the project coordinator at the Native American Youth & Family Center via email (
or by phone (503.288.8177 ext. 299).
