I have them both I wouldn't call my self either a Fed or Klingon sided player as I tend to play both sides equally as much.
While the Kar fi isn't an "Escort" it can certainly hold its own against one with a whole bunch of ways to get loose of those horrible tractor beams (if its any consolation I don't use those pets on my Armatage nor do I use it in pvp).
And another KDF ship that can wrip those Armatages a new one is the Siege destroyer, that thing just owns especially with quad cannons on it. With an engineer or Science officer covering you while you unload a massive amount of dps you shouldn't have any problems unless of course some one gets your cover.
If the KDF need a new ship its a Science one as other than the Carrier there are no Sci ships unless you pay for them from the c-store and that is totally unfair.

Fantastic time
A truly wonderful experience. A leisurely way to see Amsterdam while being served good food and copious amount of wine.
This tour was amazing!
Excellent tour, great food and wine, superb service. Thoroughly enjoyed the dinner cruise.
This tour was amazing and delicious!!!! Loved the ride through the canals and loved the food
Thank you for all your efforts
Most enjoyable. Dinner was tasty and just a bit different with cappuccino red pepper soup, veal with potato and sauerkraut mash, very decent wine, excellent service and commentary and a very lovely view of Amsterdam at night via the canals. Great.
A lovely meal with great surroundings, there wasn't a tour guide as such, but the chef did tell us a few interesting fact when she found the time.
nice trip thru the canals of Amsterdam. u could see the objects of the Amsterdam Light Festival clearly. got some infomration and the food was just great. recommended to do it
This tour was amazing!
Wow, what a great experience! It was a low volume night, 12 people on a 40 person boat, but it was great from the start. Nice table, nice drink on boarding, very very smooth sailing around lots of canals while a multi-course dinner was served. Food was good and the drinks kept coming, a great way to see Amsterdam at night!
This was an excellent way to finish off our time in Europe. A very good evening, with an excellent meal (particularly the capsicum cappuchino). Excellent - the chef did a wonderful job. It was very pleasant to have the dinner in conjunction with a lively commentary for the captain, while seeing the sights of Amsterdam from the canals. Highly recommend this as a highlight.
This was our first night in Amsterdam , and a great introduction to the city. We really enjoyed the views of the canal houses and boats.
Food and service was excellent.
This tour was amazing!

security chip???
So what can that integrated security chip do? More importantly, what can it *remember* for later playback to someone? Or am I reading too much into the words?

So what can that integrated security chip do? More importantly, what can it *remember* for later playback to someone? Or am I reading too much into the words?
So Advtravel, from Egypt, hit mostly laptops in Egypt? Or is that a typo?
if not, then good targetting, that!
The title, the subtitle, and part of the quotes are misleading. This quote in the article is important:
"Putting the carbonate solution inside of the capsules allows it to be used for CO2 capture without making direct contact with the surface of equipment in the power plant, as well as being able to move it between absorption and release towers easily, even when it absorbs so much CO2 that it solidifies."
So, this technique helps some factories and power plants that have to deal with CO2, by having a CO2 handling system that is much easier to work with. In such factories, the CO2 "captured" in one part of the factory is then released in another part - a different "tower".
Absolutely nothing to do with reducing CO2 in the atmosphere.
We often play Acquire. Others include Power Grid, Ticket to Ride Europe (expansions arrived recently), and Carcassone. Occasionals include Rail Baron, Wizard's Quest (we call it "Orc Frenzy"), Bureaucracy and even simple Dungeon!
That page uses tons of evil Javascript from all over the place. Looking at the page source, I see the URL to the actual information is:
I'm happy to say that my router is not on the list.
Hmm. Custom treatments for person A can be harmful to person B. Perhaps there will end up being some that are *very* harmful specifically to person B. So, along comes a bad guy who gets a way to find out a lot of this information. He wants to badly harm person B. He searches for and finds person A. Bad guy obtains specific treatment for person A and arranges for it to be taken by person B. Success!
Anyone want to write a science fiction story while this is all still in the future?
(I'm not against the idea of custom treatments, I'm just pointing out a consequence.)
Here in Canada, like down in the USoA, we've had a few episodes of Flash and Gotham. I've been watching Arrow since it started, and likely will continue that with Flash. I usually don't remember such things, but when Barry Allen visited Starling City, I pretty soon realized he was the Flash (must be from having watched the previous Flash TV series).
I stopped watching Gotham after 2 episodes. It seemed that the Penguin character was going to be the main star in Gotham, and, since he is a slightly-deformed psychopathic killer, I really wasn't interested. The future CatWoman is really cute though. :-)
Why are there a bunch of low spots in the Iberian Peninsula? Are those the lairs of the Elder Gods?
OK, so the place could have been off and on habitable for 4 billion years. That's lots of time for civilizations to rise and fall. Maybe the galaxy is full of earth-origin "aliens"!
(Yes, I know, current belief is that there were lots of asteroid hits for a long time, etc. etc. but we need to come up with some good bases for science fiction stories here.)
If you have all of your purchased Kindle books on your Kindle (and any other devices you use to read them), you will not lose them if Amazon goes under and disappears. The books on my Kindle are in the flash memory of the Kindle - they do not depend on Amazon to continue to be there. And no, they don't go away if the device doesn't ping Amazon every now and then. My Kindle normally has its WiFi turned off to preserve battery - it has gone for months with no contact.
So, quit giving out false information on products/systems you don't happen to like.
For those that don't want to endure Javascript from a dozen advertising and tracking sites, just search for "SpaceX Explosion" on YouTube.
I too will take this with lots of grains of salt until it is proved out a lot more. However, I would like to contribute another reactionless drive scheme for you all. :-)
Make a smallish particle accellerator. Accellerate particles from one end to about the half-way point. Then decellerate the particles. Reverse, and send the particles back. Keep them going back and forth. No resulting momentum is imparted to the structure of the chamber because it all cancels out. But, make the thing strong enough to accellerate the particles to close to the speed of light in the middle. Now you get a mass increase in the particles. Still no big deal.
Now use two different waveforms - one to accellerate and one to decellerate, such that the particles spend different amounts of time at different near-speed-of-light speeds. Do both phases contribute the same momentum to the the chamber's structure? We would assume so, but I'm not good enough at math to actually do the calculations to prove it.
If its not balanced, you have a reaction-less drive. If this actually works, some theory as to why it works would be needed, and this "quantum vacuum virtual plasma" stuff doesn't seem to be involved.
(I first had this thought in my undergrad days, which is a loooong time ago.)
A quick search on Google very strongly suggests that it is the keyboard itself that is being programmed, and not just OS keytables that are modified. For example, a Windows programming utility that uses a datafile to program the keyboard, and then you can be using a KVM switch to flip over to a Linux box and used the programmed keyboard.
@Peter Gathercole
I'm pretty sure that USB keyboards *can* be written to. I have small hands, so always switch CAPSLOCK and CTRL so I can readily reach CTRL. The LED for capslock is software controlled by the OS, and it toggles when I press the key physically labelled as "Ctrl". So, the OS is writing to the keyboard, if for no other reason than turning the LEDs on and off. Also, aren't there keyboards that allow you to program sequences into special keys?
Seems like the simple and sure-fire fix is to make the firmware not writeable. It can't be that hard to get the software right, and I've never heard of a need for in-the-field firmware upgrades on simple USB devices. Even if it is cheaper to use flash than a non-writeable ROM for the firmware, stick one of those tiny fuseable links in the write line, and blow that as the final step of soldering it all together. Might add a tiny bit to the cost.
Just bought some printer paper at the new local Target here. They have been equipped with Chip & Pin readers (which also do swipes, but not bonks) since they opened. They replaced most of the old Zellers stores.
@ DougS: My reading of the article is that the cover in question is one over the USB port - not the back cover of the phone itself.
The only time I took the back cover off my S4 is when I put the SD card in. I plug in the charger cable quite a bit more often than that. Sounds like S5 owners would want to try to get the wireless charging stuff - article doesn't mention that. As far as I've seen, I would have to insert some non-standard stuff (receiver coil) beside the battery to make it work for my S4.
Since I'm in a position to do so, I thought I would give a different perspective here. I've been a Linux user ever since moving up from my Amigas. I'm currently on KUbuntu because I didn't want to go with Unity. A few months ago, I decided to buy a laptop, to take to some meetings and to try to get my software running on (Cygwin made it trivial!). The machine (a low-end from HP) came with Windows 8, which I upgraded to 8.1 when it became available.
I curse whenever I use the machine. But, the main curse is for the laptop keyboard with its poor feel, changed layout and narrower spacing. I cannot type reliably on it. Now that I always plug in a USB mouse, I can avoid the detestable trackpad thingy. That leaves my next curse being for not being able to set it up so that windows select when the cursor is over them, but *do not raise*. Anyone know how to make Windows do that?
Going from 8.0 to 8.1 simply meant that I've told it to start in the usual desktop mode instead of the Start Screen mode. I never use the Start Screen mode, and I dislike the model of applications taking up the whole screen. I use LibreOffice on it (didn't come with MS Office), and I loaded FoxIt for PDF's to avoid the full-screen-only PDF reader app.
I have a horrible time finding settings, but I expect I would on any Windows machine. I also am quite frustrated by the lengthy update process (especially for HP stuff), compared to what I am used to on Linux. So, for me, the fact that it is a laptop and not a real computer is the biggest problem. The second is that it is the very unfamiliar Windows instead of Linux. The fact that it is Window 8.1 is actually fairly minor after those.
My Roomba doesn't get used anywhere near enough. Once every month or two isn't really enough, and I have 3 separate areas that I restrict it to with the "invisible walls". I don't run it in the area I'm in now unless I supervise, since there are too many loose wires around.
What I really need is something that can dust. Can't afford a French maid.
Hmm. Canada seems to be a bit ahead of the US in terms of this particular "investment". The local news said late last week that a company was putting a pair of Bitcoin ATMs into the west side of Edmonton, because there weren't any there yet - the others were in the east side. If I happened to see a machine, I might plunk a bit of money into it just for fun.
@ Anonymous first poster:
Have you noticed how the charge time and range have been steadily improving over the last few years? Do you have a reason to believe they will not continue to do that?
Have you also noticed that hydrogen storage is difficult/expensive/dangerous (pick 2)?
Yes, battieries can be difficult/expensive/dangerous as well, but why switch away from a technology that lots of people are working furiously on to a technology that not so many people are working on? Note also that typical hydrogen production is a less-than-perfect use of electricity, and so your hybrid is less efficient overall?
Only 500 cycles for a cell phone? Don't some folks use their smart-phones enough that they have to charge them every day? That means less than 2 years of life. Not so good if you want to get your money out of the thing.
Now that is the correct way to use a monitor!
Minor niggle: white text on a black background (gee, like this El Reg page!) is too hard on they eyes for long-term use. Go with something like a tan background.
I would be fine with DRM in browsers if I could be sure that the DRM code did nothing else but prevent me from viewing the video (or whatever) outside of the authorized context. What I don't like is secret code blobs running inside the browser, having access to all of the stuff I might choose to give to the browser. It's very similar to a smartphone, especially Android - I am fine with running magic stuff, but clearly Google has not, and never will, properly protect the information I have in the phone. So, I'm left with looking at the permissions an app wants, and don't download those that want more than I'm willing to give. (I'll ignore the fact that you can't use anything from Google unless you give it access to basically everything!)
"Pine" is retro? I use it for reading email, and sending anything with an attachment. If I send something without an attachment, I use /bin/mail. Way faster than messing around with a mouse and a GUI thing. When I got this system, I tried switching to a GUI email client to go "modern", but it wouldn't let me use an external editor (emacsclient), so I quickly reverted to the tools that work for me.
My home Wifi router blocks nearly everything inbound. That seems to be why this didn't work for me when WiFi was on in the phone. It worked when I tried again with WiFi off. It *might* also work if I had unplugged or turned off my router - I don't want to try that.
I've definitely had some good reading from Frederick Pohl over the years. I just went and checked, finding 15 Science Fiction Book Club hardcovers on my shelves. No easy way to tell how many paperpacks of his I used to have!
I'll go away now, feeling old. :-)
I downloaded Real Racer 3 to try out - I've done a number of racing games on my PS2 in the past. Keep in mind that I'm very very bad at all video games, and always have been. I have no memory for things like course structure and controls sequences. Anyway, I was put off by the horrible license, which didn't fit on my S4's screen any which way. I eventually waded through it and started the game.
My problem was that I couldn't manage to steer and glance at the course overhead section at the same time. I did badly, spending lots of time off-track.
On my next try just now I hooked up the cord(s) that throw the phone's picture onto my TV. That made a huge difference in visibility. I went from 8th place to 1st place (most people would have been in 1st place immediately.)
Because I'm a stubborn old fart, I had both WiFi and mobile data off while playing. Not sure how much further I can go - one mode left and it was complaining about no connection.
I mostly wanted to see what kind of graphics the phone could do. Seems very similar to what the PS2 does.
Having gone through style discussions and committees far too often, I know better than to try to say much that is specific. But,
1) do not use the capabilities of your editor to change the meaning of a TAB. A TAB goes to an 8 character position. Never change that. If you do, you will be looking at some awful messes in the future if you start working with people who do things a bit differently. If you want, say, 4 character indents, then just tell your editor that. It's easy in things like the various emacs's and in vi/vim. Do not use a text editor that cannot do it.
2) as others have said, if there is a house style, use it. You will save yourself and your co-workers a lot of pain.
3) you should only have to type a single key (if any!) to move to the correct column for the next line of code. If you find yourself having to manually space and/or TAB over to the proper column, then get yourself a proper programming editor. The abovementioned emacses and vi/vim are free for all platforms.
4) @ Hungry Sean: never, ever hide control constructs in macros. Never. Use macros almost entirely for constants (including properly parenthesized constant expressions). Beyond that, and you are asking for trouble. See below.
In general, things that you might decide to do as a self-taught one-person programmer will often not work out at all in a programming team. So, on your first move to a team, be prepared to accept changes. If you don't, you should be fired.
Clearly they've spent effort on making the robot's movements during conversation human-like. This suggests a risk: if people become unhappy with dealing with the robot, they may take to abuse or destruction of it because they know it is a robot. Enough of that could build behaviour patterns that should definitely not be applied to other things that have human-like behaviours.
"different regions of the university have subtly different laws of physics"
Hmm. That sounds right, based on my recollections of university. There were the Phys Ed laws, the Medicine laws, the Engineering laws, the Humanities laws, and of course the Sciences laws. Trying to mix them was asking for trouble.
This is a good place to mention this - I was having the "Mediaserver using battery" problem a while ago, and did some searching via Google. If you are not heavily into cloud use and all the various Googley services, go into the App Manager and disable nearly everything that has "sync" in its name. Use common sense of course! Your battery will thank you. I bought mine as a tech toy - have no real *need* for it. I expect I can now get nearly 4 days out of a charge. (I've got background data off, usually cell data off, GPS off, NFC off, and usually WiFi off. And "save battery" mode of course.)
You've blown it now, ratfox! Next year they will just tell us it was between 1-1000 NSL's. There goes our huge information source.
I got my new computer a couple of months ago, and didn't want to go with Unity. I probably could have, from what a friend says. I just want a blank desktop with a single task bar on the right hand side of my screen. Apparantly I *can* set it up that way. Anyway, I've ended up going with Kubuntu. I've never used KDE before, so there was a learning curve, but it seems to be going OK now. The biggest problem was that I spent a day or so getting sound to work. Turns out it was fine, but somehow my mixer (there's a mixer? Huh?) settings had all ended up as disabled, and the little red icons at the bottom of the various columns weren't jumping out at me.
My big problem with Unity is that it appears to force me to do a lot of stuff with the keyboard. I'm a touch typist, but I have a horrible memory - trying to remember all the funny key combos is quite difficult for me. Similarly, trying to remember the goofy names of many Linux tools is painful - having them readily available in a categorized menu is the way to go for me.
I may have the details worng, but...
I think I saw a Surface on the show "Mentalist". And, Window 8 screens on "Hawaii Five-O". It was all just props of course, not actually doing anything. Looked strange to me, but then I'm a Linux guy.
Is there a RAM issue with running newer versions of Android on old devices? Do 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 all run nicely on a device with only 512 Meg? Updating to get new features is nice, but not so much if the update makes the device slow, or have failing apps all the time.
Aha! A solution to global warming. All we have to do is have everyone turn their backyards into mini peat bogs, and we'll be saved.
Hmm. How do I do a peat bog on a 5-foot wide concrete balcony?
There has got to be precedent for that before 2000.
If the patent holds, then lots of things are in trouble. I'm running an ancient Ubuntu 10.04, and on the bar I've got on the right side are live-updating icons for system load, network activity, disk activity, weather/temperature, CPU clock speed, ... Having that stuff there is why I run Gnome2 instead of something even simpler like TWM. Even under that, or way back under SunOs, the system load things were small tile-looking entities that continuously updated.
Annoyingly, I had just checked the comments here again, and went to send an email, when the phone rings. They're still out there. Different name. The first guy's accent was so bad that I couldn't really understand what he wanted. He was looking for the Windows key on the keyboard. Well, my keyboard is an old USB Sun keyboard, and so I suggested I try the key with the diamond on it. He passed me off to his supervisor at that point. The supervisor wanted me to find the key with the "four flags" on it. I told him it didn't have one, and mentioned Sun again. I had already told the other guy that I am running Linux, but I don't think he understood the concept. :-)
Mr. supervisor thanked me and hung up. That's about the best I have the patience for. :-)
See title - that's what they usually called themselves (I'm in Canada). It sometimes got so bad that I was getting multiple calls per day. I'm glad they have been slowed down, at least for a bit.
I've never had the patience to string them along - got things to do, don't 'cha know!
I've never had a problem here in Edmonton, but it was a problem at my parents' house over in B.C. They had bird feeders there, and I don't here. The other thing was that they had windows on two walls of the same room, and we theorized that the birds were looking through the two windows and seeing familiar stuff beyond, and just taking a different route to it. Or so they thought.
What is OTT? Over The ???
Also, to answer one question, the reason to do everything with HTTP is that many corporate firewalls block nearly all protocols except HTTP. This is for "security", even though everyone knows that there are programs that wrap other protocols up into HTTP messages.
I guess eventually firewalls will start examining HTTP packets in more detail, and then be able to block based on the nature of those packets. Then another level of wrapping will be needed. And so it goes....
To answer the questions: yes!
The free Kindle app allows you to read ebooks from Amazon on your desktop, Apple or Android devices. That's what the article explained.
Similarly, you can transfer simple epubs to your Kindle via USB connection or email, as explained by another poster.
Kindles also natively support PDF, for document viewing (a bit restricted in scaling, etc.) And, Android devices have a quite nice Acrobat reader.
I use my Kobo VOX as a small Android tablet, so could read my Amazon ebooks on it if I wanted to (I prefer the e-Ink Kindle, however), but I also did the trick of using Calibre to convert an ebook I bought from El Reg and read that there. You have lots of choices, no matter which way you go.
I just checked the Kobo page, and the readers are offered. Looks like Canadian prices:
Mini - $80, Glo - $130, Touch - $100, ARC - $200
All are "Coming Soon", except the Touch, which had a "Buy Now" button.
ARC pages say 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, 1280x800, 2 Megapixel camera, 1 Gig RAM, Android 4, 8 or 16 GB models, 10hrs reading, 2+ weeks standby, uses Google Play. No mention of an SD slot (the VOX has one).
That 2+ weeks in standby would be the biggest benefit over the VOX, which only has a couple days of standby.
I'm lazy, so instead of trying to do my own research on what's going on, I'm just going to ask, and hope someone will answer me. :-)
All well and good (except perhaps the auto-update), but have they made it stop dropping those damn "C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt" files all over the place? The last update didn't.
I'm an AFOL (Adult Fan of Lego). Been one for over 10 years. I'm a founding member of our local group, see web page here: <http://www.nalug.org> (warning - slow site).
Yes, you can buy individual pieces online from Lego (look for "Pick-a-brick"). However, since there are now so many piece types and colours, only a small subset are available there. Also, they are expensive - Lego seems to sell by weight, so rare stuff is the same price as common stuff.
Yes, you can still buy boxes of just bricks, etc. without instructions. Again, however, Lego is expensive, and that's not going to change - the material itself is costly.
Competitors like Megabloks have now got their quality close to Lego's. One remaining issue is that because they use a different material (which is why they are a lot cheaper), they don't last as long - bits of it flake off when you connect the pieces.
The Friends sets seem popular here - there are rarely much of them in the stores. I haven't bought any myself, but I mainly buy sets for parts to build my own stuff. I'll repeat the mention of the "Creator" line of sets - very worthwhile - each shows 3 different projects for the parts, just like the old Technic sets did.
I don't like the new style of "lift arm" Technic sets, so don't buy them. I find them simply too hard on my fingers in this dry climate, especially for disassembly.
Play Well.
Running the book through Calibre did indeed fix it, although it shows up twice on the bookshelf, and it breaks if I try to delete one. Oh well - could be some setting in Calibre that I haven't looked at.
While experimenting, I turned on the Kobo Vox's Wi-Fi to see if some DRM thing required authentication. An update was available. I let it do its thing. With this new update, Kobo no longer has their own App Store - you now get "Google Play", and have to have a Google account to get apps, etc. I think on the whole this is a good thing - having their own store must have been a drain on their resources. However, this may mean they are getting out of the Android "tablet" business.
Paid for the ePub. It arrived quickly in email. Copied it to my Kobo Vox. Imported it. Gets an error on opening. Sigh. Tried again. Same. I'll have to try running the book through Calibre to see if that helps. I chose the ePub for my VOX since it has a colour display, instead of the Kindle version - my Kindle is B&W.

Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
T. E. Lawrence, an English soldier and author of the twentieth century, known for leading a rebellion of Arabs against the Turks in World War I and for his book describing the experience, ,Seven Pillars of Wisdom. At the negotiations that produced the Treaty of Versailles, he argued unsuccessfully for independence for the Arab nations.
city, seat (1855) of Douglas county, eastern Kansas, U.S. It lies on the Kansas River. It was founded in 1854 by antislavery radicals who had come to Kansas under the auspices of the New England Emigrant Aid Company to outvote proslavery settlers and thus make Kansas a "free" state. The city was named for Amos A. Lawrence, a New England textile manufacturer who funded the company's settlement efforts. It was a noted station on the Underground Railroad by which slaves escaped into free territory. As a Jayhawker (abolitionist) headquarters, the town was sacked in 1856 by a proslavery militia under David Rice Atchison, a former Democratic senator from Missouri, and in 1863 by Confederate guerrillas under the command of William Clarke Quantrill, who massacred more than 150 citizens and burned much of the city.

MIPCOM: Mark Burnett's 'Space Race' Sells for Canada, India, Mexico
CANNES -- International buyers are climbing on board Mark Burnett's new reality TV series Space Race for a chance to head into orbit. The new TV format, which NBC will launch next year, has sealed deals with buyers in Mexico, Canada and India in its initial push at TV confab MIPCOM.
The competition format, produced by One Three Media, features ordinary people vying for a seat on Richard Branson's commercial spaceline: Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo.
"I have never seen such a response from buyers for a show like with this one," said Scot Cru of One Three International, which is selling the finished show and the format to international broadcasters. "There is just something about space that transcends boundaries."
PHOTOS: Behind-the-Scenes With Reality TV's Top Stars
The first market deals, including ones with Televisor in Mexico and India group Bulldog, could lay the foundation for a global launch for the format, which NBC will bow in 2014, hoping that Space Race will prove the next The Voice for the network.
Space Race, however, isn't the only reality space show out there. Sony is selling its own orbital reality show, Milky Way Mission, a Dutch format in which celebrities compete for a chance to get shot into low orbit via Virgin Galactic competitor Space Expedition Corporation (SXC).
"I really don't know much about the Dutch space program," Cru told THR, when asked to comment on Sony's space format. "All I know is we have Mark Burnett, Virgin Galactic and NBC."
The reality TV space race has officially begun.

The debate starts at 8 p.m. ET and is supposed to go until 10 p.m. As we did on Monday when the candidates debated in Tampa, we'll be helping out the NPR Elections desk by live blogging over at It's All Politics.

Initial Phone call was made roughly a month and a half after I applied. I missed the call and called back 3 times and never received a call back until about another month down the line. Initial phone interview just going over basic resume and a few behavioral questions. interview scheduled for 2 weeks after phone interview. Very negative experience overall : the first manager I interview with was not even writing down my answers as if the position was already filled and my interview was a waste of time very unprofessional. I then met the district manager who did not even introduce himself had no suit, not even a tie and claimed he stained his tie with coffee.....very professional I must say. the district Manager then proceeded to say that people from my previous employer don't pan out well at capital one.

everyone involved for a high number of actions taken
already. Green Impact veterans PALS are in the lead, but there's still plenty of time to catch up and challenge them. And don't be put off if your team hasn't taken many actions yet - there are still almost three months to go until the final deadline for this year's programme (on 25/05/15).

best band ever. end of story.
by Rebecca November 17, 2003
Something corporate can touch anyones heart and has beautiful piano with Andrew McMahons gorgeous voice. They are so emo and that is what is so darn good about them. They can make anyone cry, they make me cry all the time. There is nothing better than an emo band with a gorgeous singer.
"The more honest i am with myself, the more people get it." - Andrew McMahon
by paige April 25, 2005
freaking amazing band.
something corporate is love.
something corporate is love.
"reasons, like seasons; they constantly change." - something corporate
by S0C0lovee September 30, 2006
A band that, regardless of senseless bashing, is a truly amazing band that has created music that goes beyond the ordinary definition of a band from it's era, touches all aspects of music worth focusing on, and defines emotions that I have found no other band to be able to do. The lead singer, Andrew McMahon has also branched off to his side project, "Jack's Mannequin", which focuses more on the piano than "Something Coporate", and also is a plain amazing band that is definitely worth checking out.
"I went to that Something Corporate concert last night, and I can honestly say I've never seen such an awesome band before."
by plaidboy October 26, 2007
A very terrible group from some random place... yeah, not important. Their song "Konstantine" is probably one of the worst songs known to man, and a Britney Spears song is a lot more enjoyable.
And that's saying something, because Something Corporate sucks ;)
by Kikyo Maaka May 04, 2009
A band whose name describes every fiber of their musical being.
I want to go to their Italian villa in Rome and throw a brick through the the window of their Maserati, the rich fucking bastards.*
*I'm not sure about the villa, but I'm sure they have one.
*I'm not sure about the villa, but I'm sure they have one.

An illegal windows xp version.
Yeah, i have a xp version. It was something corporate.
by illegal copy May 18, 2003
A band that has meaningful lyrics in a select few of their songs, but some of them are just really stupid coz they sing about love a lil too much. But hands down, this group is better than The Darkness, who sings WAAAY too much about love.
Something Corporate - Hurricane... good emo song.

Tillandsia tectorum
I have had my Tillandsia tectorum for about 2 months now. It's currently doing great. I am worried that when it starts raining here (Ft. Lauderdale) in a month or so that the plant will rot. Does anyone have advice for me to keep this plant going strong?
Well,while we wait for gonzer to warm up an answer for you,let me tell you that I've had one about the size of your plant,however only indoors in window light.It was doing very well,until I misted it just a little ,while doing the plants near it. It did'nt take long for it to be a goner. The amount of water was small,so I'm thinking that the water temp was too cold for it. My gut feeling is that it will not be happy in the rain. Perhaps you can provide some covering for it,so it does'nt get drenched,but can benefit from the humidity.The ones we have at our botanical Garden,are kept in the Cactus house,and do not get watered,and do very well there.But I want to hear what gonzer has to say about your question.He's our Til-Pro.
Here's a pic of one at the BG--note the two new pups,lower right.
I'd simply move it under cover till the monsoon season's over. Tectorums get by with just the barest of moisture in nature. The reason they are so heavily scaled (white trichomes) is because they grow at such a high and dry altitudes. This covering protects against extreme ultra-violet light (we're talking HIGH up!) and picks up what little condensation from fog they can. For this reason they can go weeks, months, without a good dose of water. Personally, I spray mine about once a month when hot. High light (direct sun preferred) and an occasional spritz and you'll be OK.
Yes they can Mike, the more sun the better. Their habitat is high up in Peru, way high! The reason for their heavy "armor" of trichomes is to deflect the intense UV rays of high altitudes. Scarcely any water either! They've adapted this for survival sake. Years ago when many botanists made collecting trips to Peru they'd encounter (around Xmas time) huge piles of tectorum strewn about villages to be used as snow to decorate their rooftops in their holiday decorations. Afterwards the plants would be unceramoniously dumped on the edge of town to die. The name tectorum actually means something like "roof plant".

I grow almost all my own food, except for grains. I am a vegan and eat only organic. I have been buying the XXXXXXX brand bread for decades but have always been unsatisfied with it. It is always dry and I don't like the whole seeds in it. So I thought I'd give this product a try and I am very glad I did. To put it mildly there is no comparison between this product and the XXXXXXXX brand bread. This is not a product you sprout, but grind in your flour mill. The bread, although dense, was fluffy - about the consistency of banana bread. And much more flavorful than store bought. I found it absolutely delicious. Although the product does not come with directions you can go directly to their site and download them or Email Kaitlin - I've had correspondence with her and the customer service is prompt by email and thorough.

text: Yes I have visible injuries .. I'm actually really upset about that. I never had a scar on my face until now . My leg is still blue where he kicked me with the strength of a horse . The nails mark on my neck are pretty much gone . The police took pictures of everything and I took additional photos ...they're stored in a photobucket account . He still hasn't been arrested and I'm not surprised I was told by a friend it takes awhile because they have other priorities like finding rapists/murderors etc.

text: This will be my first blog entry. It is short, but I prefer to get right to the point. There is a recession going on, maybe even worse than that. We'll know soon enough. But there are enough signs in the sports world that we know things are getting bad. My one single hope is that whatever comes about in the near future, please get the damn ticket prices lowered to a reasonable price where normal sports fans can see a game without spending so damn much money !!! And this goes for every sports venue out there.

Most of the excitement in Portugal's Douro River Valley since 2000 has been centered on the ascent of the region's formerly mediocre table wines to world-class stature. But many of the factors that have propelled the table-wine revolution have also had profound impact on the quality of the region's trademark Ports, the seductively rich and sweet-tasting reds that can be enjoyed for decades. Wine Spectator Kim Marcus explains.

Being able to keep a job in this horrible economy.Cons
Lack of organization, under employed and lack of acknowledgment for contracts. Everyone seems to know what they are doing but no one is properly trained to handle the job at hand. The environment is stressful for the amount of pay. Overall, social work is very stressful. Its the nature of the business.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Pay your employees money that they are worth and take the stress off workers by giving them less of a caseload. Believe in your employees and that can complete the task at hand.Doesn't RecommendNegative Outlook
