Abstract: | This paper examines the regulation of menstrual tampons in the United States from their introduction to the market some twenty five years ago to the standards that govern them in the twenty first century. After a brief replay of the introduction of the tampon into the US, this paper discusses the background regulatory scheme for such a medical device. Next, this paper traces the development of the federal rules regulating tampons and tampon packaging, as well as the battles fought in courts of law to accomplish this goal. Finally, topics related to tampon regulation are explored, including the debate over tampon ingredient labeling and the preemption of state law by the federal regulation of tampons. |

Home › Forums › From The Readers › BBS persuasion on Rape Case in India
This topic contains 3 replies, has 4 voices, and was last updated by logical 2 years, 4 months ago.
Recently there is a huge movement in India against rape of girls in India. The government of India, politicians and Police are already working towards combating and responding to the movement. They have already acknowledged the existence of the problem.
To add fuel over fire, on 27th Dec 2012, I felt it was unnecessary for BBS trying to pursue the molestation of Bhutanese girls further to the local authorities like those Indian news channels when the Bhutanese girls have already been given assurance by the DCP of Bangalore that if they faced any problem, they could call him directly. I am not against reporting the story by the way. I thought there was absolutely no need to take the matter further as she said she will. The girls said they felt safe after the DCP's assurance. Sometimes I feel our BBS is trying to act like Indian news channels who are extremely cynical in the name of trying to make better world. Just my thought.
….its is gud to know your place and see the situation before taking any action,,,..so i thing it wasnt very ethical for bringing such matter…while the situation at india was already disturbing…
my opinion..
sorry but i had to disagree here cos this piece of news confirmed me that India isn't safe anymore and even after such tragic incidents Indian people still isn't serious about it…raping molesting still continuing …this
and yup this did help me cos i gotta inform my sisters out there in India to be more careful.
Like I said being vigilant and informed is necessary. We all know India isnt safe for women. But I thought there was no need for the only Bhutanese news channel to act like an investigator when the Bhutanese girls already was assured of safety by the DCP. BBS wanted to inquire the local authority further about their safety. I am definitely not undermining the security issue in India for girls but I thought the BBS could have just reported the news.
Good deeds, BBS. Good concerns for our people and good report about the situations in the neighbourhood for informing the mass. Hope India will hang the rapists in the public and give peace to millions feeling unsafe due to protection of criminals! It will raise the morale of the great neighbour.

Recipe by Niloufer
"This delicious, mild curry is so easy to make. The word 'malai' means cream, but this curry gets its creaminess from coconut milk. This is a recipe from Bengal, which is famous for its seafood. Serve it with steamed basmati rice."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Garam Masala:
1/4 teaspoon cardamom seeds
3 whole cloves
3 (1 inch) pieces cinnamon stick
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 whole cloves
4 green cardamom pods
2 (1 1/2 inch) pieces stick cinnamon
1 onion, grated
1 1/4 teaspoons ginger paste
1 1/4 teaspoons garlic paste
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped tomato
1/2 cup water
1 cup coconut milk
1 pound tiger prawns, peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon ghee (clarified butter) (optional)
One minor correction - the word Malai in this recipe is derived from Malay. Reason- this recipe came to Bengal from Malayasia. Bengal, despite its topography and rich culinary heritage, has surprisingly ignored coconut in its recipes.
This is just awesome! I used to eat this in a nearby Bengali restaurant and was craving it for a while since I can't go there anymore. Made it for dinner tonight and it was just the same. Thank you!!!

It's pretty easy to make but to me it just seemed like it was missing something. Like maybe if you added some carrots or something. It had great flavor and it was different. I didn't have any ghee so I skipped that part. I served it over sticky rice but I'm sure basmati rice would be better.

Most the time it's the same 2 or 3 guys saying it lol. Some people are reeealy good and sometimes people get lucky. I think this accounts for 99% of alleged hackers. http://www.twitch.tv/sunshineNB |
Been playing since Tech test and to be honest there is not as many hackers as you make out. I have seen a total of 6 hackers in 1 year playing and all 6 where removed from the game 24 hours after reporting. The game is not as bad as you make out I am not sure if it is the server you are playing on but Mattherson I have never really seen that many hackers at all. Yeah sometimes I die to questionable things but after checking stats on the person in question they usually have terrible stats making it more like they just got lucky. In short SOE are pretty active against the hackers and they do try and prevent it. This is a MMOFPS and you will get people troll hacking but on the server I am on it is not very often you see this at all. For me there is nothing more rewarding than killing someone trying to ruin others experience of the game. The best thing to do is /report ignore them do not send them tells and move to another location. If it is really as bad as you make out then move servers to one that has less trolls hacking the game. |

Originally posted by Wicoa that might be the case in Planetside 2. That reminds me the hackers in Max Payne 3 multiplayer... a few people (me included) with shotguns and dual pistols unleashing hell on one guy and his health bar didnt even move and he one shot everyone with a single pistol. EDIT: edited to say that after seeing that many times in many matches i uninstalled and have regretted buying anything with multiplayer on PC coming from Rockstar. |
Originally posted by Burntvet There is no current tech to make it server side I am glad you do not work for SOE the game would be unplayable if hit detection and everything else was server sided. And you think F2P is done wrong? Go play some of the Asian MMO's where you spend close to $1000 for a PvP weapon that 1 shots people while the free players have to hit the person for 2 mins to take them down then come back here and complain about the F2P model. And by the way Mr do a 10 second google search to find hacks. DC comes up first. Guess what they discontinued it because SOE detected it and mass banned all people with the client. Next one that comes up is AA - Guess what it got discontinued also same reason mass detection and not enough clients paying to hack and the fact these small patches SOE was throwing out made the person getting the values had to spend too much time remaking the hack. There is 3 others that are discontinued also for other reasons. There is currently 2 that are supposed to be working but are detected due to something SOE added last patch. One of them uses custom drivers to hide the hack but there is an issue with their driver set that someone tipped SOE off about making that also detected and enabled last patch. Do your research before you post. I would like to know these imbalances you talk about as my K/D on all 3 factions is pretty consistent. |
Originally posted by Warjin That is a Sync issue that SOE does need to fix. It is not a hack the server does it to some outfit members sometimes. When someone is out of sync they can not shoot people dead they have to knife to kill. Most people actually notice they are out of sync and redeploy so that they do not get a bad name from it. Lucky it is a rare issue but either way does need to be fixed. |
[mod edit] |
Between having toons on Connery, Mattherson, Waterson and Miller I think Mattherson has the worst amount of hackers. Everytime an alert comes up there's always 1 or 2 people that completely obliterate everyone with a stupid AV turret or some BS like that, which is why I don't bother with alerts let alone Mattherson anymore. Mattherson has been a garbage server for a long time now, I regret having my main toon on there, been waiting for transfer tokens since forever to get the hell off there.
Just yesterday I sneaked up onto the bridge where VS was attacking our base and saw their AMS, ran up to it and shot down several people with a silenced SMG but then there was this guy standing there accessing the AMS terminal and I shot a whole clip into him and he flinched but didn't die or anything, then he ran off and I shot someone else and he died normally, didn't get to see who that player I couldn't kill was though. lol |
Originally posted by TeknoBug He wasn't accessing the AMS terminal, he was respawning, Players are immune to damage while they are still in the respawning process. (mostly apparent when someone is still watching the loading screen) |

Hacking is a bad problem with the game....... but only one of many many problems including game design,features,and management .
Originally posted by Woopin |
Originally posted by Hatefull [mod edit] Hacking is a problem, but its probably less the 1% of the people. Still stupid and still frustrating when it happens though can really ruin a good fight. But like said there are many other problems, game runs poorly, zerging, population balance, air/armor spam, all would be more important to me. [mod edit] |
I've been playing this game since beta and have seen MAYBE 2 people tops that I thought could be hacking. The hackusations are way overblown in this game as in with other FPS games as well.
I am an Alpha Squad player from closed beta, and I still play today. I have NEVER seen a single hacker while playing this game. I have seen video of them, so I know they exist, but I have never personally witnessed one. If I can play this long without seeing one, then they can't be that bad. |
Guys, a quick reminder not to post in detail about exploits or link any video or anything that shows people how to cheat.

A funny anecdote from me: I was playing with my VS outfit in the game and we were at the Crown waiting for the TR to come over there and try to take it. I decide to tell my squad over voice coms that I'll be logging off and then I did. But I relogged as TR and joined their assault on the Crown against my outfit teammembers without them knowing it just to hear what they would say over voice coms as I killed them. There was this one particularly frustrating young guy who kept boasting about how good he was that I wanted to go up against myself. :P So the big battle starts and I killed around 6 of them in a row and was accused of hacking by them. Some of them were so certain I was using an aimbot that they didn't even believe me when I logged back into my VS character and told them that it was me who had shot them for shits and giggles. I have personally never used a cheat in a multiplayer game in my life and I've been playing games for a very long time now So, just because you think a guy is hacking it might not be the case. I personally have not come across many aimbotters and only a few speedhackers and those guys dont usually last very long |

It maybe a F2P, but no point wasting time on blatant cheats that obvious. At least in BF3+ as server admins we can catch them red handed and ban their butts. |
i was thinking the same thing about people saying there is no hacks. dude you cant see everything just because you havent seen any doesent mean its not there. theres plenty of hacks going on i cant beleive you folks are so naive. so very naive. makes me wonder what else you dont beleive is true. every FPS willl have hacks, plenty of hacks. thats just common sense. either you are blind or you are just new to online games or something. every game have many, many hacks, bots, and everything else. ESPECIALLY FPS GAMES. that includes, combat arms, A.V.A, soldier front, soldier front 2, crossfire, project blackout, blacklight retrobution, and 20 other games. wake up and smell the coffee.

Great post Monica, my fellow #birdnerd! In East Central GA my frequent guests are the Northern Cardinal, Brown Thrasher, Carolina Chickadee, Tufted Titmouse, Indigo Bunting, Eastern Bluebird, Ruby Throated Hummingbird, Common Grackle, American Crow, Purple & House Finches, American Goldfinch, Blue Jay, and my favorite, the Northern Mockingbird!
Be a Bird Nerd

Bring your backyard to life
As I write, I am listening to the clear, fluted sound of a couple of Black-Capped Chickadees coupled with the metallic chirp of a Northern Cardinal. It's relaxing, entertaining and satisfying to the nature-lover in me to devote the backyard to the birds. Habitat restoration is vital for wild birds and other wildlife due to commerical and residential infringement on natural areas. Your backyard (or if space is limited – your balcony!) is one place where you can easily make a difference. All you need to do is provide 4 basic elements:
You can help secure a food supply for birds by planting shrubs and trees that produce seeds, fruits, nuts and nectar. This is a sure fire way to make your yard attractive to birds for years to come. Here's a list to give you planting ideas. Bird feeders (seed, nectar, suet) make it super easy to provide a helping hand to the birds throughout the year. Plus, you can position a feeder in a prime spot for bird watching. Just be sure to place it near a tree or shrub – birds like cover from predators while feeding and a place to perch while waiting for a turn at the feeder.
Water is an important part of your backyard habitat. A pedestal bird bath or shallow water dish placed at ground level will provide the necessary water for drinking and bathing. Replace the water every few days to keep it fresh and clean. Although this is a bit of extra work, it is well worth it. A water source can dramatically increase the number and type of wild birds that visit your yard. Plus it is totally entertaining to watch birds splash around in the water. Be sure to place the bird bath where you can view it from indoors. For more tips on supplying water, click here.
Shelter will turn your yard from a place where birds visit to a place where birds live. Birds need places to hide from predators and the weather. Plant evergreen trees and shrubs that provide year round cover. Large rocks, stumps, ground cover and brush piles offer a welcome haven for ground feeding birds.
With more and more destruction of natural habitats, birds are having trouble finding nesting and roosting sites. Bluebirds, purple martins and woodpeckers are struggling to find places to raise their young. Go here to find specifications for birdhouses that will suit the birds you wish to attract. You can put birdhouses up any time of the year; when not in use for nesting, many birds will use them for a place to sleep in cold weather.
Now that you're a bird nerd…
Once you have your backyard habitat established, treat yourself to a field guide or mobile app (I use iBird) to help you learn about and identify your new feathered friends. You can also participate in the Great Backyard Bird Count to help scientists create a real-time snapshot of where birds are across the continent. On Twitter? Search #birdnerd to see what other bird watchers are tweeting.
Special thanks to my friend, Stephanie, a fellow bird nerd, for the post idea.

I have tried MANY other recipes and this is by far the best!!! High tea wouldn't be as enjoyable without them. Great spread with clotted cream or Philadelphia Brand Cheesecake flavored cream cheese and your favorite fruit spread! Thank you for this delicious recipe,everyone who tries it loves it!!!!
I last reviewed this recipe in 2003 under JEBV. This is still by far the most popular treat with tea. I've since tried using coconut pudding and rum extract for a tropical flavor that is out of this world! This is a great recipe still. If anyone has trouble making these just try a little patience and tweek the recipe to your own taste.
Okay - but not very authentic. I live in Yorkshire, England and we don't use instant vanilla pudding mix in any of our cakes. The traditional cream tea consists of a cup of English breakfast tea with a scone split sideways across the middle with each half topped with strawberry jam (jelly) and then with either whipped heavy cream or Cornish clotted cream. The recipe which nearest matches the best scones is J.P.'s Big Daddy Biscuits on this website.

Based on a combined 60+ years of academic expertise, elite-level coaching experience, and the observation of thousands of novice trainees, the authors present a chronological analysis of the response to exercise as it varies through the training history of the athlete, one that reflects the realities of human physiology, sports psychology, and common sense. Contrary to the one-size-fits-all models of periodization offered elsewhere, Practical Programming explains the differences in response to exercise commonly observed between athletes at the novice, intermediate, and advanced levels, explains these differences in the context of the relevant exercise science, and presents new training models that actually work for athletes at all levels of experience. Complete with new, innovative graphical representations of cutting-edge concepts in exercise programming, Practical Programming is sure to become a standard reference in the field of exercise and human performance.

Oct 24, 2012A striking action-packed shoot-'em-up that's up there with the best in the genre.
Oct 31, 2012Liberation Maiden, for better or worse, is a brief, fast-paced experience. I found myself laughing at the game's opening, and even though I never became genuinely engaged in the plight of Shoko and New Japan, I enjoyed taking it all in.
Oct 9, 2012Play Liberation Maiden because you're after an acceptable arcade shooter, in other words; approach it expecting another wonky blast of Suda51 charm and, President Mech aside, you're going to be a little disappointed.
Oct 15, 2012Hard to play, unexciting, and a little soulless: though some may find Liberation Maiden's style enough to excuse its other faults, this is undoubtedly Suda 51's worst output to date.
Oct 16, 2012Clearly a low-budget game considering its extremely short length and its mediocre graphics, Liberation Maiden is an original and fun shooter nonetheless, which fans of the genre should definitely check out.
Nov 25, 2012With only five stages, it's hard to justify the price tag unless you intend to chase high scores. [Christmas 2012, p.91]
Oct 9, 2012Ideal for gamers who grew up with this genre. Spectacular, fast, fresh and fun, it offers some great moments, and, even if it's not a AAA game, we think it's a game everyone will enjoy.
Oct 5, 2012It's a smart idea in an enjoyably brisk score-attack game that sadly feels a little undernourished thanks to the brevity of its campaign and its repetitive play rhythms.
Oct 26, 2012What hurts most about Liberation Maiden, however, is that just when it feels like it's getting interesting, with a stage that's basically one epic, shifting boss battle, it unexpectedly screeches to a halt, reminding you that you've bought what was originally one quarter of a bigger game.
Oct 18, 2012Grasshopper Manufacture creates a very competent 3D-Shooter,with high values and an interesting anime style. It's intense, but also very short.
Oct 9, 2012Liberation Maiden is a game that will see you involved in the struggles between mecha. Your mission is to free the Japanese cities.
Nov 3, 2012Liberation Maiden isn't Suda 51's crowning achievement or anything, but it is a simple, fun shooter with a clever offense-defensive mechanic and several coats of glossy finish. If you aren't bothered by the stick and stylus control scheme, you'll enjoy this hearty dose of anime mech action. Certainly, the remaining Guild01 games have a lot to live up to.
Oct 9, 2012Liberation Maiden is one of the best games on the e-Shop. The Grasshopper Manufacture's title convinces thanks to a precise control system and well paced rhythm.
Nov 22, 2012Liberation Maiden has a good quality/price ratio, although with some changes it could have been a much better experience. As it stands, however, it's just a good downloadable action game.
Oct 8, 2012Liberation Maiden is not that work of art you might have expected, but it has interesting basic approaches and the gameplay is well done.
Oct 11, 2012Liberation Maiden offers a surprisingly short experience, but if it were much longer the sense of repetition would probably become quite irksome. For all its flashy visuals and instantly gratifying action, this isn't a game that boasts a tremendous amount of variety or depth.
Oct 7, 2012In pure gameplay terms this is one of Suda51's most accessible and entertaining games for years, but it's badly devalued by its extreme brevity.
Nov 15, 2012Despite being a fun game, it's very bare, with few levels just relying on replaying for it to get any kind of lasting value. No matter how much you loved the game, though, replaying the same five is not enough for me to give this amazing, fun, beautiful game the high rank that it deserves.
Oct 14, 2012Liberation Maiden is a classic shoot'em up with intense gameplay, but it's too short and has repetitive mechanics.
Dec 26, 2012A beautiful shooter hampered only by its being too small for the grand scale it implies. [Christmas 2012, p.96]
Oct 5, 2012Liberation Maiden is a solid shooter with top-notch presentation (the cut-scenes by anime studio Bones are superb) and frantic action. It's by no means the longest game in the world so only high score fiends will get the best out of it, but if you fall into that category this is well worth your £7.19.
Nov 4, 2012Liberation Maiden is an outstanding on-rails shooter worth its $8 price tag.
Nov 5, 2012Liberation Maiden may not be Suda51′s best work, but it is nonetheless a solid, albeit limited, game. The presentation values alone warrant the price tag, and the game has a sort of a "big game" feel to it, which is wonderful considering its small price.
Oct 30, 2012Being extremely short and repetitive, Liberation Maiden asks you too much money for what it really offers.
Nov 13, 2012Liberation Maiden is a solid game that is pretty interesting and enjoyable from beginning to end, with good controls and great concepts. However, each of the five stages will take a maximum of 20 minutes and will most likely zip by far quicker than that.
Jan 14, 2013If you're a Suda-51 enthusiast or if it's on sale, then it'll be worth it, but other than that, it's a tiny distraction that provides a little entertainment, closer to an app game than something you'd play on a proper console, even a handheld one.
Oct 27, 2012Liberation Maiden meets its goal as part of a package and never really goes beyond that.

Wow 39 to me is not very old, a lot of you that are having that many problems at that young of age must not be very active or in very good shape.
I did not get serious into tennis until my mid 40's and am now 57 and have been playing 5 days a week all year for the last 5 years or so. I am a strong 4.0 singles player, and only play singles. My playing style is grinding with a lot of top spin and consistent play, so I am not playing a easy end the point quick style.
Sometimes me and my partners will hit for a good 20 minutes or so and then just play a set or 2. So I am not playing matches more than 1-2 times a week and the rest of the time is practicing.
I have weight trained for years and used to take the summer off from weight training because I played so much softball. But once I switched to tennis I found out that I had to weight train all year to avoid injury.
Believe me that resistance training is the key to longevity in sports. A good part of my training nowadays is focused on injury prevention. For tennis players that means specialized shoulder, elbow, wrist and leg training.
A lot of the players at my club that are in their 40's now ask me how I play so much but am rarely injured. I ask these guys first what do they do for a living? And most have sedentary jobs. Then I ask them if they do any working out besides tennis.
Of course most all say no, these guys are good players and have been playing for years. So I tell them that they are just an accident waiting to happen. They play a couple of times a week and are still in enough shape to play at a high level of course most of them only play doubles. But it is just a matter of time before they get injured.
You cannot play this game at a high level into your 40's for long without becoming injured without other training. It is as simple as that, so it is up to you guys either start weight training and become stronger or keep whining and complaining about your old age.

HowTo : Solve 'the file-format module cannot parse the file' error in Photoshop
Yesterday, when I was working on a client's site, I got an error in Photoshop while using a .PNG file which normally works pretty well in Photoshop (PS). This error was new to me & it seemed weird too. Then I started researching on this weird PS error & found some solutions to not overcome it actually, but you can call it alternatives; though if you're a Digital Scrapbooker or something similar to it; who has to deal with lots of such .PNG files daily, would find these below mentioned solutions pretty difficult.
Here is the description of the error incase you tend to face the same error in future. This would add as a reference, so that you could know the solution well before you encounter the same.
Could not complete your request because the file-format module cannot parse the file
You have actually two solutions to this problem. Both are just alternatives as said before & will be useful to you if you face the file-format module error in Photoshop very rarely.
1) Save it as .PNG again
Certainly you won't be able to open it in PS, but you can use the default 'Paint' present in the Accessories Drop down in your Start Menu, {Shortcut: press control + r (Run Command) & type mspaint} to open the image & just Save As .PNG again. Now you will be able to open it in PS & you can continue with your editing work again.
2) Take a Screenshot & Edit it
I used this option since I didn't know that the option works too & I hadn't researched about this error at that time. This option is pretty simple if you are quick in PS.
First open the Image using your default image viewer. In my case it is 'Microsoft Picture and Fax Viewer'. Then take a screenshot of the opened image using the Print Screen Button (Prt Scr) on the keyboard. Now the image will be placed in the clipboard.
- Open Photoshop, Goto File –> New & press the ok button.
- Then a transparent layer will be opened.
- Use Control + v (Paste) to paste your image.
- Now use the Rectangular Marquee Tool to select the part of the screenshot where your image lies.
- Press Control + c to copy the part of the screenshot
- Again goto File –> New, press the Ok button & Paste the image with Control + v
- That's it. Now save it as .PNG or use Save for web & Devices & save as .PNG
Note:- Try this option only if you know some of the basics of PS, else I would recommend the first option. Its much easier.
Hope the above solutions work for you. Though it has been revealed by Adobe Employees that such an error is because of a corrupted file due to a bad RAM & disc. Here is the exact quote from an Adobe Employee.
Adobe can't solve corrupt files.
They are corrupted by bad disks, bad RAM, or other applications (malware mostly) on your hard disk.
Photoshop simply reports problems reading the files when the files are corrupt.
Hope you like the tutorial. For more such tutorials Subscribe to DailyBlogging because hereafter I will try to come up with video tuts too. Do leave a comment if you have encountered such problems

Thanks for sharing great tutorial.
These tips are so true
Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for sharing this solution Mani – option 1 worked perfectly for me
Glad it worked for you. Thanks for dropping by!
Thanks for the quick solution mani.
I recently faced this problem and both options worked perfectly.Thank you.
Was getting on my nerves.Thanks Mani for guiding through the multiple solutions. Hope to see many technical posts in future as well.
What about solutions for transparant PNGs? Both of these "solutions" give the BG a matte white, Very problematic for renders and 3D elements.
When i tried the first option it said access to the image was denied and for the second one i cant even view the image because i saved it and im trying to open it up again.
Thanks for posting this. I ended up using the super easy method of screen shot and edit, but it worked perfect for my needs.
thanks paint work with me
I tried something else – a default move, actually – that seems to cut down on the workload involved. Double-clicking on the png file, it opened in Microsoft Office Picture Manager. Then on the left-hand column of actions (under File), I clicked 'Export.' This opened a right-hand column of several options, chief among them to change the file's state to a jpeg (I also added 'ps' to the file name's beginning, for quick identification). Picture Manager permitted me to scroll through all the saved png files in my folder and export each one. After thus exporting new jpegs of all the accumulated files, I opened the original folder and deleted all the png's, since they were of no further use….
thanks for sharing tutorial
I got this same error but it can't be my disk because it's a brand spankin new laptop. So. Not sure what causes this.
many thanks for this! re-saved in paint and worked a treat.
I had the same problem, and found out it was because the file was too large. The problem wouldn't occur if i saved the .png file as "Interlaced" in png options(, or if i reduced the file size). Also, print screen isn't looseless many times.

That's what APPLE does... They CARE about their customer and the loyalty shows!!!

It's probably AT&T network because I have a 3GS (waiting on my 4S) and it drops calls like crazy. - Although Apple did acknowledge there was a problem with the 4 and provided a solution "free case". - They fixed the problem in the 4S. - It's hard to redesign and change the internals of a phone once it has already gone into production.
2. remixfa (Posts: 14254; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
thats a real change from the previous "your holding it wrong" and "we are not tracking you" scandals. good. maybe new leadership is just what the doctor ordered.
So taco, is everyone still making it all up to be mean to apple?? lol

This is Apple after Steve's no longer there. They have some real promise to finally get rid of the reputation of being d%#@$ like their former CEO placed upon them.

Add one more to the mix who won't hate. I applaud Apple on their response to the bugs found. No fuss, minimal drama. The bugs are found and squashed while being openly acknowledged by the company.
See, guys? No double standard here. Apple does something right, and they'll get props for it, the same as everyone else.

"Even better is this will be the first time users get to use the snazzy new OTA updates available in iOS 5."
I bet that they did this on purpose to test the OTA updates without announcing it haha.

No surprise here, Apple has the best customer support in the business
17. Sniggly (Posts: 7230; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Considering the precedent set with design issues/embarrassing bugs at Apple by Steve Jobs, this is... I won't say surprising, because Jobs isn't around to be an asshole to a complaining customer or to spin bulls**t about "other people have this problem, but we don't. " however, I wasn't sure how Apple would respond this time around. I'm glad to see that they didn't follow Steve's example. I'm glad to see they did a good job by not making excuses and simply busting their asses on fixing the issue instead.
So, in the end, this will simply be a footnote, not remembered down the road. It'll be like the batch of defective screens in the first DROID Xs, or the wifi bug in Android servers, or the battery life/speaker issue on the Boulder in the G'zOne series. This is the kind of behavior, which along with a changing attitude toward constant litigation against competitors and more equitable relationships with business partners, could help sway my opinion of Apple away from animosity and back toward a healthy respect, even if I prefer someone else's products.
The same standard could apply to you too. You're intelligent enough to know what I mean by that. Learn from this, Taco. You idolize Apple, so follow the example they've just set.
20. Jobes (Posts: 364; Member since: 27 Oct 2011)
It takes quite a bit to be the bigger man like this Snig.. And hopefully taco follows suit. I myself feel the same way.. my anger towards sheep is due to them blindly following the BS that SJ was as a person.. If Apple can become a decent company.. Quit with the patent race and just give their customers a amazing phone (4s is piss poor compared to what they could really offer if they focused their finances and productivity into rnd) maybe changed their slight of tongue in marketing and just put up then most Android fans might go to Apple.. Sure jobs did quite a bit for the company.. But not much for customers.. The tech is there.. Give it to the people. Apple fans should understand they aren't getting the full potential of what the company could give them.. Sure its shiny.. But not magical.. No innovation.. A mid range phone to say the least.. The list goes on. Apple may be making a turn for the best hopefully the sheep will see they deserve better not by Android but by Apple.
23. vijaysivakula (Posts: 176; Member since: 17 Aug 2011)
Strongly second this. The scene became ugly only when Apple made it so. They are creating competition not with their products but with their attitude. What they do best is antagonize people.
27. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Odd a midrange phone that's copied by everyone. Siri is way ahead of what android offers for example bit takes better pictures and has smoother and more stable performance. A better ecosystem with way better and more secure apps. iCloud is better than googles cloud services.
Apple beats android in just about every way. Only thing google has is free navigation.
31. TacoTrooper (Posts: 21; Member since: 03 Nov 2011)
and everyone knows- android NEEDS to give out stuff for free, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to hold a candle to the like of the Iphone
41. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Haha true! No one would pay for googles services.
32. Jobes (Posts: 364; Member since: 27 Oct 2011)
That's just you being delusional.. Camera lol google the best camera on a phone.. And let's not hear speed but quality.. What took Apple months developers did in 8 hours. smoother? Lol easily done when your phone isn't running anything.. Multitasking isn't a problem with my phone... What's iPhone 4s clocked at? Lol laughable. Behind the curve. App security? Lol I choose what goes on my phone.. I don't need a program to rule my life.. My phone is an extension of me.. I can customize anything I want so its different from any other phone.. Yours is just a carbon copy of every other persons iPhone. You don't even have a iPhone 4s compare your pos to the best on the market.. You fail in every way.. Crawl back into your cave troll. Your arguments mean nothing.. Get a better phone then step up.. Till then leave your comments in a place where they mean something.. maybe under your pillow cuddle with them for all I care. You rally your words to fight for something you don't even own.. Go play with your dads 4s.. Or your friends our even yourself.. Make better use of what's between your ears.
33. TacoTrooper (Posts: 21; Member since: 03 Nov 2011)

36. Sniggly (Posts: 7230; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
So, Taco, I guess your strategy is to ignore anyone being nice to you and just keep on claiming "APPLE IS THE ABSOLUTE SUPER DUPER BEST AT EVERYTHING WOO HOO!!!!! SUCK IT FANDROIDS YOU'RE ALL TROLLING JERKS!!!!"

I hate to say it but with the new management at Apple things seem to be better for their customers. The antenna issue was way worse than this, it was ignored and claimed not to be true. Now they are apologizing,admitting there's an issue and is going to fox it.

Great business move by Apple obviously the announcement of the iphone 4s was a huge let down so they need damage control. Battery life sucks, Apple admits and loyal customers who are in denial about the iphone 4s was not that huge of an upgrade, feel justified for their purchase because "apple cares about their loyalty" talk about being strung in. Give me a break!

Apple always finds a solution to its problems, they are a very intellegent company, they wouldnt have the kind of sales they do for no reason. The difference between the problems with apple products and everything else is that opposers to Apple make a big deal about them. People expect apple to be perfect, and no body is. So when Apple is not people are suprised. Apple never said that they are perfect, everyone else did. When something usually works like its suppose to, and things usually work as they are suppose to I guess people see that as being perfect. Its not suprising why apple gets confused as being perfect and no one else does. Its always a big deal when the Iphone has one or two things wrong with it, but when another companys product doesnt perform as expexcted or even on par with other products of its caliber its no big deal, its funny. When your the best or on top people are always looking to take you down. People will always try to make a big deal out something when they are insecure about what they have to offer.

Completing the mission, they have a chance to rescue, as Mickey put it, ?out of all the people we?ve eliminated somebody in Washington had a hard on for, how many damsels in distress have we run across??
JD Volt was assigned to room with Mickey Dix his senior year in high school through junior college at a deep south military academy. Their constant efforts to find ways to get away from the academy to seek out members of the fair sex led them to join, enroll and try out for any team that traveled; the rifle, drill and football teams.
After graduation from junior college, they were approached by a special forces officer to be inducted into an eighteen month training regimen as a special forces sniper team. They spend the next twenty on active duty and retire when a new regime moves into the White house and immediately makes gay rights an issue in the military.
An older gentleman clad in a rumpled three piece worsted suit that reminded JD of the benevolent God, George Burns played in a movie offers them contract employment to terminate with extreme prejudice, a Colombian drug lord that both the U.S. and Colombian Governments want removed with no one knowing exactly who did it as reprisals against Colombian officials would be severe.

I just wanted to show you guys and girls a build I've been working on with my buddy. This is his truck, but he doesn't get on the forums to post much these days, so I'm posting on his behalf. It'll also serve as my review / thoughts on the wheels and tires, since I was involved with helping to source them and test everything out.
2006 Tacoma Sport Double Cab Short Bed - 2WD
Bilstein / RCD 5100 adjustable shocks
OME 885 Springs
Camburg 4.0" lift Spindles
Total Chaos upper control arms
TSB Leaf Springs w/ 2" Toytec Add-a-leaf
1" Toytec Rear Block
FN Wheels Five Star - 16x8" -25mm offset 3.52" back spacing matte black wheels
Mickey Thompson Baja Claw TTC LT315/75R16 (35x12.50R16) tires
Body mount chop
Fender liner / over fender plastic has been trimmed
Extended brake lines
Wheel/tire clearance is very good after trimming and chopping. There is only a slight rub at full lock. The body chop modification is a must with this tire size, and trimming of the plastic fender pieces is also a must. Tim from DMZ Fab and Race Prep did the body chop for us, and his work is flawless.
The FN Wheels Five Stars wheels gave us just the look that we were going for - simple, clean, understated, and yet aggressive. The stance is exactly what we wanted. Suspension clearance (UCA) is excellent with the wheels' 3.52" back spacing. The wheels are also extremely light weight. They weighed in at 18.5lbs on my bathroom scale.
The Mickey Thompson tires are awesome too. We've only done some light - medium trails so far, but the tires are great. They cut right through any mud that we encountered, and traction in the gravel was excellent. Overall traction is very good on-road as well. Noise level and on-road ride comfort is quite bearable, and of course the looks of these tires are amazing. I believe the MT Baja Claw TT's are fairly unique in that they are directional tires, which seems rare for an MT tire. Aside from any claimed performance benefits from being directional (I can't tell a difference yet from the driving we've done), the look of the directional tread pattern is bitchin'.
Here are some photos as the truck sits now:

Nervous, excited, scared, rambunctious—all those feelings are part of the first day of school, especially in those first moments as students meet their new teacher and classmates and march down the hallway to their classroom. The youngest of B.A. Kennedy's students, the 4K kids, exuded all those emotions Tuesday, Sept. 2. (Photos by Correne Martin)
Mrs. Megan Copsey showed one of her 4K students, Emma Niedziejko, where to hang her bookbag Tuesday morning. (Photos by Correne Martin)
Parker Bedward and his classmates were full of questions as Mrs. Copsey's 4K class sat together to learn about how their routine will start each and every school day at B.A. Kennedy.
Students in Mr. Shawn Zeeh's first grade started their first day of school off with a tour of their classroom and a rundown of how to behave well in class. They were all ears.

As all eyes focus on work centers for citizens with disabilities and their future in the state of Wisconsin, which is altering its Family Care regulations, the Opportunity Center in Prairie du Chien currently has over a dozen clients excelling in community-based employment.
Many adults with disabilities are happy and satisfied completing tasks on the Opportunity Center work floor. Yet, there are others who can and want to go out into the community and perform jobs at the expected standards. That's where the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development's Division of Vocational Rehab (DVR) comes in. The DVR program has made it possible for about 14 Opportunity Center clients to be hired for jobs with local businesses.
This white ruby-throated hummingbird was photographed by Gary Benish of Prairie du Chien. Fewer than 100 white hummingbirds have ever been reported in the Americas.

Gary Benish of Prairie du Chien recently had a strange visitor to his backyard hummingbird feeder. On Wednesday, Aug. 27, Gary noticed a white hummingbird at his feeder, got his camera and began snapping numerous photos.

On Saturday afternoon at about 3 p.m., people along the beach on St. Feriole Island, at Lawler Park or on the water had the opportunity to see a pair of Victorian skiffs rowing steadily along through the slow-no-wake area.
The large wooden skiffs were about 20 feet long and each had three occupants including two rowers and a coxswain.

Eastman couple surprised by big back yard visitor
An Eastman couple got quite a large surprise on Friday afternoon when they saw a big black bear in their back yard.
Various businesses in Prairie du Chien make an effort to give back to the community, and Cabela's is no different in this regard. Cabela's is perhaps unique, however, in that its employees democratically choose which charitable project to work on from year to year.
This year, for example, approximately 100 Cabela's employees voted by secret ballot to raise money for new dugouts at Bluff View. Cabela's Powersports Administrative Assistant Kay DeLanzo said the dugout project was chosen from a group of seven proposals submitted.
"We're always trying to give back to the community," said DeLanzo, who is a member of the Cabela's Campfire Committee, a group of 10 employees who volunteer their time to fund-raise for various causes. "This year, we reached out and will raise funds to build new dugouts for the Prairie du Chien High School girls softball team, which will be built next year."
Susan Johnson, of Prairie du Chien, was the winner of $50 in Construction Cash this week. She registered to win at Tender Care Animal Hospital in Prairie du Chien. Pictured, Johnson and her canine Rascal receive their "cash" as well as a gift basket full of dog treats, Heartguard, Frontline and other pet care products from Ken Quick, co-owner of Tender Care. Construction Cash is a Courier Press promotion running in conjunction with the Marquette Road construction project. The cash can be spent at any one of the 27 participating businesses in the community. Be sure to sign up for your chance to be the next winner.
A 24-year-old Prairie du Chien man was charged on Aug. 20 in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of substantial battery.
Joshua A. Moeck faces up to 3.5 years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted.
According to the criminal complaint, a witness saw Moeck on Aug. 9, at approximately 2 a.m., hit a man on the back patio of Bob's Bar for no apparent reason. The man fell to the ground apparently unconscious. The witness later told investigating officers that he saw Moeck strike the man several more times in the head while the man was on the ground. The witness said Moeck then ran from the area, according to the complaint.
The victim later told officers he was outside the bar when he was blind-sided by someone and does not remember much after being hit, the complaint said.
The victim sustained lacerations to the head and a broken nose. He was taken to Prairie du Chien Memorial Hospital.
Rhonda Stubbe and her day care students from last school year are pictured on Zebra Day. "Z is for zebra. Run, run, run. Having lots of fun in the sun, sun, sun." Pictured with Rhonda are (from left) Brianna, Bella, Deven, Kadyn, Parker, Madie and Zach.
Rhonda Stubbe started the Jest For Kids licensed day care center 25 years ago in her Prairie du Chien home.
Someday, the children Rhonda Stubbe has cared for at Jest For Kids Family Child Care Center may come back as adults and express their gratitude for giving them a good start in life.
"For a minimal part of the day, I get to be the parent they can't have while mom and dad are working," Stubbe said. "That's my purpose. I've always loved children and I've enjoyed my job providing care for hundreds of children over the years."
Rhonda, with support from her husband, Matt, started Jest For Kids 25 years ago. She remembers the day remarkably well.
"Jim and Cheryl Trentin were my first day care parents. I remember her handing me a $10 and a $5 and, I said, 'What is this for? You mean I get paid to do this?'" she recalled.
She had been working as a computer operator for Peoples State Bank and was frustrated going to work knowing her two young daughters weren't happy at their day care.

Upgrading LED in Brightboxe Projector (ISLAND MIDDLE OF NOWHERE)
The Brightboxe projector has an emitter which is a meager 40 lumens and the picture is very yellow as a result. So, I was wondering if I could change its lamp/emitter as a DIY project.
I wanted to know if these emitters also work with the projector: PRIME 100W 8000LM LED Emitter Metal Plate Cree XR-E Q5 Emitter on Premium Star (228LM at 1A) CREE XM-L T6 The projector is going to be used for old-school anime that's 480p to 720p, so I want as much vibrant color as I can get. So far the picture has been good, crisp, but the yellow tint was not to my liking which is why I want to do the change of emitter/lamp to a higher lumens and K. Any advice on which lamp/emitter to get? I also get a bit on blur at the bottom of the projected image then I use the focus and that area becomes fine, and the blurriness moves to another part of the image. While I'm in there for the emitter, do you have any other suggestions for this problem too? I have posted a video of the indsides on Youtube: Brightboxe DLP Projector LED Lamp Upgrade Advice Needed - YouTube |

Sweet Niljaviya, I will be buying the prime 100w 8000lm then, as far as I know, the 30w you bought could be defective, what are you displaying it on and where was it purchased?
I was just wondering if you know what the gold foil is in my video and how I will go about removing it. Brightboxe DLP Projector LED Lamp Upgrade Advice Needed - YouTube I was always use dealextreme. |

i chk your youtube link it looks to me gold / silver foil is to protect other projector parts from heat of original lamp. that's my understanding. if you go with 100W LED
you batter keep it, you need extra heat sink as well fan and also constant current driver for it. i am currently thinking to modify 23W CFL if i can to generate hi bright light ..but not sure i could or not.... |
