I have a X8 with a broken power button, which causes reboots when i click the home button because on the Hard reboot feature.
Can we modify the kernel to change the camera button to power button? Or disable the reboot feature (power+home buttons)?
Point me to the right direction if anyone knows anything (i was not lucky searching kernel sources)
Thank you in advance

I didn't double-check, but I'm pretty sure this isn't a Delphic Maxim. Democracy comes from the Greeks, even if only the non-slave males were given the opportunity to vote. The Unites States doesn't have a direct democracy, which really only functions best among thousands of people. But we do have democracy, and I'm a fan of it. I don't use this blog for my political thoughts (although you can be certain I have many). Doing our civic duty is an ancient pagan value and so I'm using today's post … [Read more...]
Maxim Monday: Vote
The Not So Dumb Supper
I don't know the much about history and tradition of the dumb supper. I've been to a few communal suppers and really enjoyed them. A few years ago I decided I'd like to add this to my own family's traditions. Finding some balance to the commercialized candy-fest of mainstream Halloween and creating a container to discuss death and ancestors with the kids is important to me. This was our third dumb supper - and it certainly wasn't all that dumb (and by dumb, I mean silent).My ideal dumb … [Read more...]
From one fire to another
Last night was Halloween. Did you dress up? Have trick-or-treaters at your door? Halloween (October 31) is the holiday I reserve for the fun, cultural aspects of this particular season. I enjoy the knocks on the door and walking around in the dark. I admit I take a perverse pleasure in getting to peek inside people's homes. I don't enjoy the abundance of cheap sugary crap and "sexy" costumes, but much of that can be avoided with a little creativity and diligence.My kids dressed up as Luigi … [Read more...]
Samhain Thoughts
Halloween/Samhain approaches. It's my High Holy Days! But there is so much going on in my world right now that I can barely focus. I've missed the last two Maxim Mondays - the week before was the middle of Navratri and yesterday I was attending to family things. I'd like to share some of what's going on in my world and what I've been up to, along with a few thoughts on the season.First, I was able to meet up with some amazing people on Sunday. I drove to Seattle and met with Christine Hoff … [Read more...]
From Lakshmi to Saraswati
Today is the third day of honoring Saraswati, goddess of knowledge, wisdom, maturity and personal authority; it's also the final day of Navratri. Tomorrow I will celebrate morning puja and then pour cream into my tea.Saraswati puja typically involves blessing one's tools of work and one's books - and then not using those items for an entire day. Those things are not really possible in my hyperliterate house. There is no way all the books in our house could fit in front of my altar I had … [Read more...]
From Kali to Lakshmi
The first three days of Navratri have passed. Three days of making purification (via kala), three days of dark red candles and meditating on the fierce love and thunder of Ma Durga, three days of praying that injustice, ignorance and illusion be razed. I have been running the iron pentacle, energetic meditations on sex, pride, self, power and passion. I have been adding an offering a day to the altar. So far I have rice, water, turmeric, and cumin.Now we shift to honoring Lakshmi, reflection … [Read more...]
Navratri begins!
After doing my dark moon cleaning of the altar, I changed my altar just a little in preparation for Navratri. For the next 8 days I'll observe this beautiful Hindu festival of Shakti principle. (I wrote about Navratri last year and recommend reading it for a little background.)Navratri focuses on the manifestations of Durga, the Mahadevi, or in my Feri eyes, the Star Goddess, the Great Source from whom we all emerge and to whom we all return. For the next three days I'm focusing on the … [Read more...]

Good Points
Has good reception and a big screen.
Bad Points
Fat and ugly. Very Dull. No technology.
General Comments
The Sendo S360 is a rubbish mobile phone. It has no camera, and it is very fat and ugly. I have had this phone for over a year and I am now getting a Sony Ericsson K700i. This phone is old and destined for the bin. Although it is easy to use and has a big colour screen. Overall it is for someone who has never had a phone before. But I do suppose it is alright.

On LIncoln between 5th and 6th, we heard about this restaurant through Miraflores Winery, a lovely Winery in El Dorado County California. The mushroom soup was the best we have had anywhere. We also had the seasonal mushroom appetizer (Chantrelles) on a bed of creamy polenta, For main course I had the Cornmeal crusted trout which was delicately sweet, fresh and zero bones! Hubby had the halibut, again perfectly fresh and well cooked in a bed of fresh vegetables and broth.
Having dined at many places in Carmel, we will put this one on the 'must revisit' list for our twice annual treks here.

Hozier + Annie Lennox Took Us to Church at the 2015 Grammys [VIDEO]
While there some tough contenders, we have to say that Hozier and Annie Lennox delivered hands-down the best performance at the 2015 Grammy Awards last night.
While there some tough contenders, we have to say that Hozier and Annie Lennox delivered hands-down the best performance at the 2015 Grammy Awards last night.
"Y'all know what it meant when Ye walked on that stage."
Did Pharrell just give Taylor Swift (and her dance moves) some major side-eye at the 2015 Grammy Awards?
Poor Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic. They both faced some awkward moments while talking to -- or attempting to, anyway -- celebrities on the 2015 Grammy Awards red carpet.
Sam Smith proved that the fastest way to mend a broken heart is to win four Grammys.
This is one Grammys collaboration we definitely did NOT see coming: Sia and Kristen Wiig together onstage for 'Chandelier'!
Beyonce performed the gospel song, 'Take My Hand, Precious Lord' at the 2015 Grammy Awards and, by the end of her performance, we could feel our souls leaving our bodies and rising up to the heavens above to meet her there, where she probably has an official residency.
In what was perhaps the greatest self-referential moment of the night, Kanye West almost pulled another "Imma let you finish but..." moment when Beck won the Grammy for Album of the Year.
Miranda Lambert not only won Best Country Album at the 2015 Grammy Awards tonight (Feb. 8), she also delivered a seriously red-hot performance of 'Little Red Wagon.'
Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett performed their hit duet 'Cheek to Cheek,' at the 2015 Grammy Awards and, as they are wont to do, totally killed it.

My Ficus rubiginosa fruiting HEAVILY!
Moved to this house 4 years ago. The back yard has a mature Ficus rubiginosa, about 40' tall, canopy about 50'+.
Had it pollarded a little over a year ago, the whole yard was shaded, it was very dense. The canopy has completely grown back, though it is smaller. The tree looks very healthy, it is an outstanding specimen.
Previously, it has fruited pretty much insignificantly, not much at all, as is the leaf drop. But this year, my tree has turned on me!
About a month ago it began to drop A LOT of fruit. You can not avoid stepping on the 1/2" fruits littering the wood deck and concrete patio areas. I have to sweep every other day, just to be able to water the other plants, or every day if you want to walk anywhere out under the tree. I almost filled a 5 gallon bucket with less than 2 days of fruit drop. An added "bonus" is that most of the fruit is so soft that gentle sweeping smears it on the deck and patio. The yard reeks of rotting fruit.
This is the first time this tree has exhibited this behavior. We love this tree, and consider ourselves very lucky to have this as the focal point of the back yard.
I would like to hear if others have experience with this species, and if our recent problem is unusual, or perhaps climatically triggered. Do understand that the ficus is in no danger of being removed, but I would like to know if this will happen regularly, as it has not in my limited(4 years) experience. Until now, this tree has had no bad traits, and I would recommend it as a specimen tree for any climate in which it would thrive.
Thanks, Dave
Do you water it?
Pollarding it would trigger a survival reaction, so a lot of fruit after a that would not be unexpected. You may have also gotten an influx of pollinators.
Cal Poly rates the root damage potential as "high", so eventually that bad trait may emerge. I hope it is not too close to any structures.

Discounts platform enters three cities including St. Louis; marketers to use credit card points to buy ads.
Facebook's seven-weeks-old Deals platform is now open for business in Charlotte, NC, St. Louis, and Minneapolis, bringing its total markets to eight. The move highlights the social site's growing attempts to woo SMBs with marketing and commerce solutions.
A Facebook spokesperson told ClickZ News, "The early feedback from businesses has been positive, and they have been able to find new customers to bring into their stores. Facebook has seen that people are finding a lot of Deals through their friends and that Deals found through friends have higher conversion rates for businesses. We're also seeing an increase in fans of a business after the Deal has run."
Meanwhile, the Palo Alto, CA-based company has expanded its partnership with American Express. Amex's Membership Rewards customers can now utilize their redeemable points to purchase ads on Facebook's self-service platform.
The ads-for-points effort seems to sync up smoothly with Amex's SMB-focused Open program, although Ed Gilligan, vice chairman at New York-based Amex, told The USA Today that all card holders can participate.
"When we ask small-business owners to name their biggest challenge, the answer is always finding new customers," Gilligan said to the daily newspaper.

Wired claims last-minute "MacBook Air" detailsAn alleged insider at a third-party vendor is said by Wired to have fresh details on the rumored 'MacBook Air' sub-notebook just hours before its unveiling at Macworld San Francisco.
In its description, the magazine's Gadget Lab blog describes the lightweight notebook as teardrop-shaped when shut, thickening towards the hinge of the system but thinning near the edges — and remaining "unbelievably" thin overall, according to the source.
The system, according to the source, shares the same aluminum and glass construction of the iMac with black accents on a silver frame.
The tip also suggests that the MacBook Air name refers not just to the computer's slender design but also an apparent dependence on wireless: it may drop Ethernet altogether in favor of Wi-Fi or "other wireless technology," the purported source said, though it's unknown whether this would involve AT&T's 3G (third-generation) service, Sprint's Intel-derived WiMAX network, or any service at all.
Multi-touch is also suggested for the display, though this too remains a mystery.
MacBook Air mockup image (courtesy of Wired)
In recent days, AppleInsider has received similar descriptions, though it has been unable to confirm the authenticity of those reports.
According to one submission, the notebook sports "very thin edges" with a slightly thicker body that "curves to the sides at the edges," producing a slimming effect akin to the rear design of the new aluminum iMacs.
The submission went on to say that the front of the notebook appears to be no more than 3/16th of an inch thick when closed and that the right side of the unit is void of any ports with the exception of an unknown slot.
Both the keyboard and trackpad are said to closely mirror those of Apple's existing MacBook, and the "Air" in the bezel logo is said to use a lighter font than the preceding "MacBook."
Again, AppleInsider has so far been unable to authenticate these latest claims, though numerous details — such as first word of the subnotebook format's return, its use of a 13-inch display, and its Macworld Expo debut — have all been published in a series of reports dating as far back as February of last year.

- Apple embarks on wave of new battery-related job hires, targets iOS improvements

Hi everyone. So I brewed a Barleywine back in May to celebrate my now 3 week old daughter. As others have done, I want to open a bottle on each of her birthdays. the beer ended up @ an FG of 1.020 @11.7% ABV. I added 1/2 pack of dry yeast and 5oz of corn sugar at bottling time. I wanted to overcarbonate it slightly so the carbonation would last through the years. The bottles have been kept between 70 to 80 degrees. Its been 5 months now and the beer has no carbonation. When I opened one of the bottles 3 weeks ago I thought I heard the tinyest hiss. Sounded about as loud as a dust mite coughing. And the beer had no percievable carbonation.
I know many people have asked questions about beer not carbonating. But most of them have only waited a few weeks. I not sure what the best course of action is. Should I up end the bottles and get the yeast back in solution? Or would that risk oxygenating the beer? Or is all the yeast dead by now? Should I open all of the bottles and add fresh yeast? I want this beer to last for the next 20 years so I dont want to risk oxygenating it if I dont need to. Any advice would be appreciated.
12% beers are difficult to carbonate using the standard method. You pretty much need actively fermenting, alcohol-tolerant yeast like WLP 099 to get the job done. At this point, your options are limited. Making a healthy starter of WLP 099 and eye-dropping some into each bottle may be your best bet. Or kegging under a CO2 blanket, force-carbonating and beer-gunning the beer back into bottles.
Other options are more risky - Brett, enzymes, etc.
How would I get the beer into the keg without oxygenating it? Would there be any flavor or attenuation differences between WLP099 and using champagne yeast?
If the keg is filled (and periodically re-filled) with CO2 and you pour the bottles gently, you will minimize (but not altogether eliminate) O2 pickup.
I'll leave it to someone with better knowledge of wine yeasts to compare it to the high gravity beer yeast.

A Window into the Industry Collections
29 Medi 2014,
Amongst the new collections we have received in September is this unusual miniature miner's dial. This is a compass-like instrument used underground for the surveying of passages and seams. The engraved plate on the lid of the box of this example shows that it was presented to Mr. W. Meredith by the workmen of Tylecoch Colliery on Sept. 12th 1881. The manufacturer is unknown.
We have been donated two twist boxes this month. These twist boxes were used by miners to carry their chewing tobacco. They were not allowed to smoke underground due to the risk of explosions. The one on the left even contains some original tobacco! Both examples belonged to ancestors of the donor and were both used in south Wales collieries. Twist boxes are fairly common mining related objects. An excellent display can be seen in our galleries in the old pit head baths at Big Pit: National Mining Museum.
This photograph was donated along with the two twist boxes and is a souvenir of the stay in strike at Parc Colliery. The donor's grandfather is one of the men in the photograph.
Finally the certificate below was issued by the Monmouthshire Education Authority to Abraham Evans in 1945.

A Window into the Industry Collections
3 Medi 2014,
Amongst the new collections we have received in August was a collection of two ship models and six watercolours. The models and paintings are all by Mr Tony Jackson who was apprenticed to Sir William Reardon Smith & Sons in 1951. The two models are of the BP tanker British Sovereign, and a Liberty Ship. The six watercolours show the Orient City, Homer City, Devon City, Fresno City, Graig and Graigfelen. The photograph below shows Tony Jackson in his uniform aged 15. The next two show the ship model of the British Sovereign ship model and a painting of the Graig.
This photograph is one of three we received showing the basilica and copper mines at El Cobre, Cuba, taken in February this year. These mines were important as a source of ore to Welsh smelting works. We recently acquired a share certificate relating to the Royal Copper Mines of Cobre which you can see in my March blog.
We have been donated a history of the Ely Brewery called 'Beer and the Brewery'. This has been compiled by an ex-employee of the brewery who was an apprentice fitter and then fitter there from 1949 - 1962. This month we have also received 35 copies of the Ely Brewery house magazine 'Mild and Bitter'. The image shows a front page from a 1956 edition.
We have purchased two interesting handbills for the collection. One is for the St. George's SS Co. Ltd., and dates to 1910. The other is for a cruise along the Cardigan coast in 1968.
This Sharp 'Font Writer' Personal Word Processor (Model FW-710 UM) was purchased by the donor to be used during her university course. The word processor was manufactured by Sharp Electronics (UK) Ltd. at Wrexham in about 1995.

"Our Cats" by Harrison Weir [1889]
15 Awst 2014,
We recently participated in #MuseumCats Day on Twitter and this involved a quick search through our holdings for some interesting pictures of cats to Tweet and what a gem we have found! Please enjoy this selection of wonderful and [in some cases] bizarre illustrations of cats from the book "Our Cats and all about them" written and illustrated by Harrison Weir in 1889.
My personal favourites are the surreal disembodied heads [see above], "Sylvie" [she of the magnificent moustaches] and the Russian cat who [in my opinion] has a most unsettling human expression.
Weir was a very interesting character; he was born in 1824 on May 5th [d.1906], and is known as "The Father of the Cat Fancy". He organizied the first ever cat show in England, at The Crystal Palace, London in July 1871 where he and his brother served as judges. In 1887 he founded the National Cat Club and was its first President and Show Manager until his resignation in 1890. Our Cats was the first published pedigree cat book.
Weir was employed, for many years, as a draughtsman and engraver for the Illustrated London News as well as many other publications and in his lifetime he both wrote and illustrated other books such as The Poetry of Nature (1867), Every Day in the Country (1883) and Animal Studies, Old and New (1885). In 1845 he exhibited his first painting at the British Institution and during his career he was an occasional exhibitor at the Royal Academy.
He was a keen animal fancier, an experienced breeder of cats, carrier pigeons, and poultry and for thirty years often acted as a judge at the principal pigeon and poultry shows. In 1903 he wrote and illustrated the exhaustive book Our Poultry and All About Them.
More information on Harrison Weir via the following links:
This book was bequeathed to the Library back in May 1916 along with around 500 other books by the Welsh artist, champion of Wales' cultural heritage and one of the founding fathers of Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales, Thomas Henry Thomas.
Along with the books, Thomas also bequeathed his entire catalogue of prints, drawings and watercolours to the Museum.
More information on Thomas Henry Thomas here:
The illustration above appeares in the Chapter "Performing cats". Other chapters include, "Cats as tormentors", "Dead cats", "Fishing cats" and "Lovers of cats" [would you believe... Cardinal Richelieu?].
This book is available to view electronically via the following Project Gutenberg link:

Well now, here's a pretty thing…
A souvenir booklet celebrating the fifty year reign of Queen Victoria. It was published in 1887 by Eyre & Spottiswoode, who were the official printers to Her Majesty at that time.
Our volunteer [Alison] has been working her way through old pamphlet boxes and all manner of forgotten things and very kindly passes to me items that are interesting, unusual or just lovely to see, and this one falls into that last category.
It measures 11 x 13.5 cm, has 16 pages and, our accessions register states that it was donated to us in May 1935 by a Mr Charles Barnwell Esq.
The book also contains a poem written by Lord Tennyson especially for the occasion. Tennyson had been Poet Laureate since 1850 [after William Wordsworth's death] and held the position until his own death in 1892.
Interestingly, Eyre & Spottiswoode [established in 1845], went on to merge with Methuen Publishing in the 1970s.

Golwg ar y Casgliadau Diwydiant
29 Gorffennaf 2014,
Croesawyd amrywiaeth o gaffaeliadau newydd i'r casgliadau Diwydiant a Thrafnidiaeth ym mis Gorffennaf eleni eto. Ymhlith yr eitemau newydd mae -
Offer mesur danheddog a ddefnyddiwyd yn chwarel Dinorwig i farcio/mesur llechi to cyn eu torri. Safonwyd enwau a maint llechi to ym 1738 pan ddyfeisiodd y Cadfridog Hugh Warburton (cydberchennog Ystâd y Penrhyn ar y pryd) system enwi llechi o wahanol faint. Gan eu mesur mewn modfeddi, rhoddwyd enwau 'menywod bonheddig' i'r llechi fel Empresses, Duchesses Mawr, Viscountesses, a Ladis Llydan. Buan y daeth y rhain yn dermau safonol y diwydiant, er bod y meintiau yn amrywio o dro i dro ac o ardal i ardal. Mae cyfanswm o ddau ddeg tri 'dant' ar y ffon fesur sy'n 26 modfedd o hyd. Ar y pen mae tri 'dant' ddwy fodfedd ar wahân (yn y pen agosaf at yr hoelen) tra bod y dau ddeg saith 'dant' arall un fodfedd ar wahân.
Ffon fesur hir allai gael ei defnyddio i farcio a mesur llechi mawr maint 'Queens'. Y llechen leiaf allai gael ei marcio gan y ffon hon yw'r 'Narrow Ladies' (16 modfedd o hyd neu fyw).
Ar y fforch dostio hon mae llun o löwr ac arysgrif 'BIG PIT BLAENAVON'. Byddai'r fforch yn cael ei gwerthu yn siop Amgueddfa Big Pit yn niwedd y 1980au/dechrau'r 1990au. Bellach mae Big Pit yn un o wyth amgueddfa genedlaethol Amgueddfa Cymru.
Potel wag o chwisgi un brag 'Madeira' Penderyn yn ei bapur gwreiddiol. Lansiwyd y cwmni yn 2000 fel y Welsh Whisky Company, cyn newid yr enw'n ddiweddarach i Penderyn Distillery gan fod y cwmni wedi'i leoli ym mhentref Penderyn, y tu fewn i ffin ddeheuol Parc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog. Lansiwyd chwisgi un brag Penderyn gan Dywysog Cymru ar 1 Mawrth 2004 yn Neuadd Dewi Sant Caerdydd. Caiff ei aeddfedu i ddechrau mewn casgenni bourbon cyn ei aeddfedu ymhellach mewn barriques Madeira arbennig.
Cwmni rheilffordd Neath and Brecon a gynhyrchodd y dystysgrif cyfranddaliad hon gwerth £10. Awdurdodwyd y rheilffordd gan Ddeddf Seneddol ym 1862 a dechreuwyd cludo glo i Gastell Nedd dan yr enw Dulais Valley Mineral Railway. Gwnaed y gwaith hyrwyddo ac adeiladu gan y contractiwr John Dickson ac ef dderbyniodd y dystysgrif hon. Wedi cael caniatâd i ymestyn y rheilffordd i Aberhonddu newidiwyd yr enw i'r Neath and Brecon Railway.
Dau DVD yw'r eitem olaf. Ffilm am drychineb Glofa Albion ym 1894 wedi'i chreu gan staff a disgybl yn Ysgol Uwchradd Pontypridd yw'r cyntaf. Teitl yr ail yw 'Memories of Old Clydach' ac mae'n gasgliad o ffotograffau, dogfennau ac atgofion gan drigolion yr ardal yn y 1940au a'r 1950au. Mae un adran yn trafod Glofa Clydach Merthyr a gweithfeydd tunplat Players.

Surge protectors (also called surge suppressors) are a cheap way to protect your gear against random, and potentially damaging, power spikes. They're not all the same, and there's a lot of marketing fluff surrounding them. Here are a few tips before you start shopping.
The company says the decision to ban third-party marketing links has nothing to do with making money and everything to do with improving people's experience on the site.
Technically Incorrect: A survey comparing engineers with marketers shows very different views of Tim Cook and Apple. Fifty percent of engineers view Cook negatively. Zero percent said they'd buy an Apple Watch.
Reporters' notebook: The annual technology, film and music confab showed us that brands have money to blow, and a tiny app can still make a name for itself when the tech industry converges on Austin, Texas.
Researcher IDC cuts its forecast for PC shipments, saying more needs to be done to help the market stabilize.
Todd Pendleton, the man behind Samsung's popular marketing campaign, plans to leave the smartphone giant in early April, CNET has learned.
Apple's upcoming wearable is expected to ship more than 15 million units worldwide this year, according to Strategy Analytics.
One in every four smartphones now sold in urban China is an iPhone, according to research firm Kantar Worldpanel ComTech.
Technically Incorrect: In a bizarre image posted by CEO of Chinese company that's about to launch a smartphone, Apple is portrayed by Hitler with an Apple logo in place of the swastika.
John Sculley may have been the one who pushed out Steve Jobs from Apple, but he also ushered in one of the most famous commercials. Sculley talks to CNET about Samsung's marketing efforts, Apple Watch, Tim Cook and more.

when lots of people start heading off for an extended Christmas break. It means that it's time for me, on behalf of all of us at PCA to wish all of you a very happy Christmas, and a happy and peaceful 2012.
As each year end approaches I'm reminded that I couldn't have imagined, back in late 2000 when our forum first went live, that we would still be going strong eleven years later. The years have flown by.
We wouldn't be here at all without all of you of course,and on a personal note I would like to record how much I appreciate the support you've provided over the past year. We've had our ups and downs, but overall I think we've got a pretty good forum - I certainly don't think there can be many others which have such a nice crowd of forum members. To those of you who have helped me out with spam notifications I give a big vote of thanks - I won't name you all, but you know who you are. Another big thank you goes to all my PCA colleagues who provide me with such excellent behind-the-scenes help and support throughout the year.
Enjoy your Christmas,and don't forget that we'll be here all over the Christmas break if you fancy popping in now and then. Dress code: smart casual,and I'll have a Red Bull - no ice.

No, you're wrong,
Rand endorsed Romney during the time of the Texas state convention, which was the time of the other state conventions. This was before the general and before the RNC convention in Tampa. This greatly hurt Ron's chances when he was gaining momentum. Not only did Rand not endorse his dad, he endorsed his dad's opponent before the nomination was determined. This is despicable behavior in any culture. A self serving sellout who committed political patricide. If he will sell out and back stab his own dad, he'll do it again and again for his own power lust. Rand? No way.

NEW YORK (AP) — Shares of Chesapeake Energy Corp. plunged 14 percent Friday after the company suggested some of its planned asset sales could be delayed.
Chesapeake shares suffer late-day plunge
Chesapeake has been aggressively selling oil and gas assets in hopes of raising money to reduce debt and fund its operations. Investors worry about a cash crunch if any sales are delayed or halted. Chesapeake has outlined plans to sell as much as $14 billion of assets this year.
In a quarterly financial statement released shortly before the close of trading, the company said that asset sales help reduce debt, but they can also reduce cash flow if they include wells that are producing natural gas and oil. The company's cash flow is already being staunched by natural gas prices that are 40 percent lower than they were a year ago. If the company's cash flow falls below certain levels, the company could run afoul of agreements it has made with banks and lose access to loans.
"As a result, we may delay one or more of our currently planned asset monetizations," the company's filing said.
The shares lost $1.58 in the last 45 minutes of trading, knocking off about $1.05 billion from Chesapeake's market capitalization.
Phil Weiss, an analyst at Argus Research, said if Chesapeake can't raise enough money, it may not be able to afford to drill everywhere it needs to in order to retain its drilling rights. Many oil and gas leases require the driller to either begin work or give up rights to drill.
Shares drifted lower earlier in the day after a published report said the company didn't tell investors about $1.4 billion in liabilities.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Chesapeake had raised $6.4 billion since 2007 by signing oil and gas production deals with a number of banks. Those deals are essentially debts that Chesapeake must repay with oil and natural gas. The Journal said the full cost of meeting those obligations over the next 10 years wasn't disclosed.

New Technology Produces Cheaper Tantalum and Titanium 139
from the cheap-thinkpads-for-all dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Slashdot is certainly prone to error, so I'm not going to defend this specific case, but it's not uncommon for a 17 year lapse between having a process progressing from an academic discovery to an industrial implementation. Using your example, it was a decade between the first flight and the first scheduled commercial flight (heck, even four years to the first passenger).
the problem with titanium is that its currently incredibly expensive to refine it from its ore, if the costs of refining it the problems of "working" it aren't major hurdles compared to its . Its already used extensively in Aircraft frames were its weight to strength ratio make it economic despite its high cost. if the cost of refining it dropped by the amounts claimed we would see HUGE increases in the use of titanium.
It could literally change the world.
Titanium--which is actually common in the soil--is an amazingly strong metal that is also quite corrosion resistant and can withstand very temperatures. Even with the expensive production processes used up till now, titanium was favored by the aerospace industry because of its strength and heat resistance and for making propeller blades for ship screws because they withstood the corrosive effects of seawater.
With a vastly cheaper production process, it could make it possible to substantially lighten the weight of automobiles--which has the benefit of either lower petrol/diesel fuel consumption or needing a smaller battery pack (in the case of electric cars). And it means high-speed trains can be vastly lighter while still meeting safety standards for passenger train cars, which means smaller and more efficient traction motors on electric multiple unit (EMU) passenger trains.

LED Lights glow dimly when plugged in
I have a couple strings of LED lights (I think they are the C7 or C9 type globes on them) that I had used on a timer for a couple hours each evening that were on a timer. Over the last couple months, I noticed that the light output was getting dimmer and dimmer, until finally they appeared to be out.
However, when I was able to take them down & start going through the string, things looked like they were okay. I plugged the string into an outlet & found that they were not out - just very very dim. I had to be in pitch dark to see them glow to any degree.
The fuses in the plug appeared to be intact & I know I'm getting good, grounded AC power out of the outlet I am plugging them in to. Since the fuses appear to be intact, I'm at a loss as to what the actual issue is. Both strings of lights seem to be similarly affected. I have ruled out that the timer is the issue, since it's no longer in the equation. I am plugging these lights straight into a grounded outlet that gives me strong 116-120 volts out of it.
Do the LED lights in these strings just "give out" after so many hours? I was hoping that, as expensive as these strings can be, that they'd be a little more hearty.
Is there a way to determine what is going bad with these lights? I would appreciate any suggestions.

This November, for the first time, the United States will be subject to a review of our human rights record by the notorious United Nations Human Rights Council. Undoubtedly, the United States will be chastised for not ratifying a U.N. treaty on "women's rights." Because President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton support the treaty, this may be another stop on their "apologize for America" tour.
But the State Department has every reason to defend our position confidently.
We'll be scolded that most countries have ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW). "Yes," the United States can respond, "and that includes nations with the worst records of abuse, yet it has not improved women's standing or conditions in those countries. But if adopted, it would deny women basic freedoms and rights in America."
CEDAW is contrary to America's constitutional system: CEDAW's sweeping language to abolish "any distinction ... made on the basis of sex" covers laws, culture, political systems, schooling, family life, personal relationships and professional choices. Its all-encompassing scope contradicts the U.S. Constitution's limits on government and respect for states to handle matters such as family law. Every aspect of our lives would be fodder for review by a U.N. committee of "gender experts."
The United States provides women legal protection: The Constitution already covers women. The ruling in Buckley v. Valeo states, "The term 'person' in the Fourteenth Amendment has never been limited to men, and fully protects women against denials of 'equal protection.' "
If discrimination occurs, women have recourse to state and federal courts, commissions and a culture of shame. Even the president of the United States is accountable and can be sued for sexually harassing women. Women flee to the U.S. when they face horrific discrimination. Recently, the United States extended asylum to a woman who fled her husband's brutal abuse in Guatemala.
CEDAW would deny American women's freedom and views: Women in the United States are free to decide their profession, education and political representation or to run for office. Women are free to negotiate their roles as wives, mothers and caregivers. Yet CEDAW would infringe on these freedoms if the United States were subject to the irrational views of the "gender experts" on the CEDAW Committee, which has oversight of countries that adopt the treaty.
CEDAW was crafted during the turbulent 1970s and reflects the view of gender feminists that has been rejected by most American women and many women around the world. It is a relic of a battle won by Western "gender feminists" against feminists from the developing world. "Social feminists" who faced violence, enslavement and less-than-human status wanted equal rights and women's unique traits to be valued. They accused the gender feminists of "denigrating woman's maternal role" and weakening marriage.
The CEDAW Committee provides the best reasons why the U.S. has not subjected Americans to this treaty.
It told China to decriminalize prostitution, which degrades women as objects to be bought and sold and destroys the marriages of women whose husbands buy prostitutes.
It criticized Ireland for the Catholic Church's influence on attitudes and state policy.
It told Singapore, which reported that its system is based on merit, to impose "minimum quotas for women political candidates." It told Austria to increase women's appointments to academic posts. And when Slovenia reported that "there were clear differences in what women and men preferred to study," the committee told the country to institute quotas to limit women's choices of what fields they may study.
If political, educational or professional slots are filled based on sex, it reduces respect for women who qualify based on merit. It restricts women's ability to vote for or hire the candidates of their choice and harms the wives of men who lose positions to women who are not as qualified.
Famously, the committee criticized Belarus for celebrating Mother's Day. It told Armenia to "combat the traditional stereotype of women in the noble role of mother." It pressures countries to provide abortions, which, more than half the time, kill unborn girls and can cause serious and sometimes fatal damage to women. It criticized Slovenia because an insufficient number of toddlers were in government day care, revealing its prejudice against women who choose to stay at home with their children. It prefers that mothers work in day care institutions raising otherwomen's children, not their own.
These are issues that Americans - and not a U.N. committee - should decide for themselves.
This year marks the 90th anniversary of women's right to vote. The 500,000 members of Concerned Women for America vote against the United States ratifying CEDAW.
Wendy Wright is president of Concerned Women for America, the nation's largest public-policy women's organization.

"Life is painting a picture, not doing a sum," said Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., a judge who might well have approved of the way kids at Altamont Elementary School assessed picture books.
Let's see the snowy owl as a harbinger of hope and change our ways before it is too late.

Prospect Tournament Post-Game: Shots but no goals? Yes, you are Flame prospects.

I'll keep this fairly short tonight. There are nights when things just don't quite work out in spite of a decent effort, and for the Heat-in-waiting this evening, that was the type of evening they endured as they dropped a 5-3 decision to the baby Grease in Penticton. A shaky first period and five minutes of serial defensive ineptitude in the second allowed the Oiler kids enough chances to seal matters, despite being out-shot 37-35 by the Flame prospects in a reasonably entertaining tilt for a practice game.

The Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers play tonight in Penticton as part of Vancouver's Young Stars Tournament. However, the Oilers will be sitting three of the highest profile players at the tournament, as Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle and Magnus Paajarvi will not play.

After leading the baby Flames over the baby Ducks with 3 goals and 5 points last night, a lot of questions are being asked about Jon Rheault. The 5'11", 200 pound winger was a late find by the Heat last year and has tread an interesting path to get to the Flames prospect camp.

Last night's drowning of the Duck prospects served as a nice way to ease into the week for a group of players that will be the core of the 2010/11 Abbotsford Heat. Tonight, the Flame youngsters have a different challenge awaiting them, as they confront a few famous young men wearing the colours of the Auld Enemy.

Flames 8 - Ducks 4
For a first effort, the young Flames acquitted themselves quite nicely this evening, beating the Baby Ducks 8-4 in Penticton. The prospects were full value for the win, out-shooting their California counterparts 41-22 in a game where the ice tilted pretty hard from the second period onward.
