E-TEN Glofiish X800 Smartphone - More Features and Final Thoughts
Lars has the E-TEN X800 in hand which carries all the features of the X650 along with additional 3G and HSDPA support.More Features and Final Thoughts
Continuing around the edges of the device; starting on the left hand side is a volume rocker key, a voice dial/voice recorder button, a recessed reset button and all the way down at the bottom a 2.5mm headset jack. Also at the bottom is the microphone which is used both for voice calls and voice recordings. In the middle is a small flap which conceals the micro SD card slot, although it makes it slightly trickier than normal to get the card out, but it also helps prevent some dust entering the handset.
Finally, we have a mini USB port and the storage slot for the stylus here. On the right hand side is the camera button and as the X800 features auto focus, albeit a very slow auto focus, the button has two stages to it. Our only concern here is that it sticks out quite far and looks like it might get some extra wear, at least if you keep the phone in your pocket. At the top is the power button, but unlike most other Windows Mobile devices we've tested, it doesn't allow you to switch off the handset when depressed over a period of time.
General build quality is pretty good with a metal inlay around the display, but we're not keen at all on the battery cover. Unlike the X650, the battery cover on the X800 comes off without having to remove the stylus, but it's just pulled off and it looks like some of the plastic tabs can be damaged if you're too rough when taking it off. However, once you've put your SIM card in, there shouldn't really be any reason to take the back cover off again. The supplied battery is rated at 1,530mAh which seems to be slightly better than the norm on these kinds of devices. With fairly light usage, the battery seemed to last about two days or so, but as long as you charge the handset once a day, it should cope with a fair amount of 3G and WiFi usage.
The X800 measures 113x60.5x15.8mm (HxWxD) and weighs in at 165g compared to 107x58x14.7mm (HxWxD) and 136g for the X650. This is what you end having to pay for the addition of 3G, HSDPA and video calls and it really comes down to if you need these features or not when choosing between the two. The X800 is a clear winner compared to the older X600 which is currently available, but if you don't need the 3G features and are keen on the Glofiish devices from E-TEN, then we'd suggest the X650 in favour of the X800. However, 3G data is a key feature for many business users and having a 3G enabled handset with GPS can be very useful for those that travel a lot.
E-TEN provides a decent package in the box, with a belt clip carry bag, charger, USB cable, headset and a spare stylus. The headset is nothing out of the ordinary and looks just like what we've become accustomed with when it comes to Smartphones. This in itself isn't a good thing, but as the X800 has a built in FM radio and of course the ability to play back both music and video files, the headset quality should've been better than this, as most people will try to find a third party replacement. At least the X800 uses a standard 2.5mm socket, so there should be a wide range of suitable headsets (not headphones though) that will work with it.
We're not sold on the X800 either, but in all fairness, it is an older device compared to the X650 and the price difference is just too small to call it either which way. One of the major downsides is that you're unlikely to find E-TEN's devices subsidised by the mobile phone network providers, as the company haven't struck up a lot of deals as yet. But as Acer bought out E-TEN during the time between the X650 and this X800 review, it looks as if these handsets might become more affordable and easier to obtain.
With a bit better design from the help of Acer, we might see some really good devices in the future based on E-TEN's hardware, as it's all there; it's just not quite HTC as yet.

COLUMBUS — A man who was robbed of more than $35,000 in gambling winnings is suing the Columbus casino where he won the money, arguing a cashier should have issued him a check instead of cash.
Police say 29-year-old David Hayes was robbed at gunpoint of the 358 $100 bills when two men woke him at home hours after he left the Hollywood Casino Columbus with his winnings.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that Hayes filed a lawsuit against the casino's operator. He contends he asked for a check when he cashed out on Oct. 21 but was given cash instead.
The lawsuit also claims the casino "breached its duty to maintain the confidentiality of customer financial transactions."
The casino says Hayes lost the money because of his own negligence.

- OR - Select an option belowEnding a group bike ride at a restaurant is kind of like holding a hotdog in front of a fat kid on a treadmill. It offers incentive, makes the experience more fun, and leads to the replenishment of all burned calories. Excellent.
Tempes weekly CRAP ride expands on that idea, bringing exercise, fun, food, and booze together for one endorphin-filled adventure. Every Tuesday cyclists wheel out for a 15-or-so mile joy ride with a no-drop policy. CRAP, which is short for Car Resistance Action Party, is led by co-founder Ryan Guzy, whos also president of Tempe Bicycle Action Group (TBAG). Guzy stresses that they never leave anyone behind. Its not a race. Its mostly about the social aspect riding with friends, Guzy says.

Prosecute security forces for torture: Human Rights Watch
Tuesday January 31, 2012 09:56:24 PM,
New York: The Indian government should prosecute security personnel for torture to make it clear that torture will not be tolerated, Human Rights Watch said Tuesday. Border Security Force (BSF) troopers were captured in a video posted on YouTube brutally beating a Bangladeshi national caught smuggling cattle in West Bengal. The video, reportedly filmed by a BSF soldier, showed colleagues from BSF's 105th Battalion stripping the Bangladeshi man, Habibur Rahman, tying him up and beating him while laughing and engaging in verbal abuse. The BSF suspended eight soldiers - Sandip Kumar, Dhananjay Roy, Sunil Kumar Yadav, Suresh Chandra, Anand Kumar, Victor, Amarjyoti, and Virendra Tiwari - and ordered an inquiry. Human Rights Watch said that despite clear evidence of abuse, to date no criminal charges have been filed against any soldiers. In December 2010, Human Rights Watch, together with a Kolkatta-based NGO that posted the video, and Dhaka-based Odhikar accused the BSP of torturing both Indians and Bangladeshis. "After the report's release, the Indian government ordered an end to the use of lethal force except in self-defense. While the number of killings decreased, allegations of killings and torture have continued," it said.

Personally, I believe that the practice of "showrooming" (looking at an item in a store and then purchasing it somewhere else online) is unethical, and I refuse to do it. If I look at an item in the store, I buy it from the store, at the store's asking price. And I have done that at WM many times - and did NOT ask for a price match. The reason I think showrooming is unethical is that I would be using the store's services for free, and then buying elsewhere. Do that enough, and there will no longer be any stores around to look at those items that you need to touch to make an informed decision.
However, certain commodity items, like boat paint, do not require a store visit. You can get all the info you need online and by calling the paint manufacturer. For items like paint, I used to ask WM to match their competitors's prices. With WM's new policy, this year I will buy my paint online from the cheapest supplier.
I will continue to do business with West Marine when I need to see the item. But for commodity stuff that I can decide on without visiting the store, I'll buy online.
It's about time someone mentioned this. A brick and Mortar location with inventory should not be expected to match the web on any item unless they also match the service (ie: no sale help, ship to your driveway, return by mail only after chasing them down, etc...)
I do the same thing, if I shop for an item in your store and you help me I buy from you. Conversely, if your staff is inattentive or apathetic I will use your display to comparison shop and purchase later online.
It is all about service in my opinion.

Human rights in the Arab countries
International agreements such as UN conventions involving human rights present Arab states (and the Islamic countries more generally) with a dilemma. On one hand they are reluctant to accept the principle of universality, arguing for exceptions to be made on cultural or religious grounds, while on the other they feel a need to demonstrate that Islam respects human rights by signing up to UN conventions [see table].
Becoming a party to the various human rights conventions gives respectability without necessarily creating any serious obligations in terms of compliance – firstly because the conventions themselves lack effective enforcement mechanisms and secondly because the parties to a UN convention can often choose to ignore parts of it simply by registering their "reservations".
In some cases these reservations can be so sweeping as to negate the essential substance of the agreement. Liesbeth Lijnzaad, in her book, Reservations to UN Human Rights Treaties: Ratify and Ruin? sums up the problem thus:
By making reservations to human rights treaties, states frequently undermine essential rules, and indeed essential human rights guarantees … The impression is that many states, when ratifying, at the same time ruin the treaty. Reservations restrict the potential domestic effect of the human rights treaty, and a large number of reservations made by a great many states will turn a human rights instrument into a moth-eaten guarantee.
In theory, reservations which are "incompatible with the object and purpose" of a UN convention are not allowed but in practice they can be difficult to prevent. When North Yemen acceded to the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) in 1989 it declared reservations "in respect of article 5 (c) and article 5 (d) (iv), (vi) and (vii)". In effect, it was claiming the right to discriminate on racial grounds with regard to political rights, marriage rights, inheritance rights and the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion.
This was obviously incompatible with the aims of the convention and Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom all lodged formal objections. However, their numbers fell well short of the two-thirds of states-parties required to block the Yemeni reservations, and there was little that could be done about it except patiently cajole: seventeen years later, the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination was continuing to repeat its "recommendation" that Yemen should "consider withdrawing its reservation". Meanwhile Saudi Arabia, despite operating what is probably the world's most comprehensive system of institutionalised discrimination against women, is a party – together with 17 other Arab states – to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). The kingdom rationalises this seemingly irreconcilable position, after a fashion, by saying it does not consider itself bound by any part of the convention that conflicts with "the norms of Islamic law".
Among the other Arab countries, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Syria and the UAE have also lodged reservations based on Islamic law.
Citing "Islamic law" in the context of international treaties is especially problematic because no one can be sure what it means. The shari'a is not formally codified, there are various methods of interpretation and scholars can sometimes reach wildly differing conclusions. As Denmark noted in its objection to Saudi Arabia's reservations, the references to the provisions of Islamic law were "of unlimited scope and undefined character".
The key point, though, is that religious principles are a convenient vehicle for excusing all manner of abuse. In reality, the abuses usually have more to do with local customs and practice than religious doctrine but invoking religion removes any need to account for them or try to justify them. Since religious belief demands respect and tolerance from others, dressing up unsavoury practices in religious garb becomes a way of silencing critics. The overall effect of dragging Islamic law into human rights debates, then, is to lower standards rather than raise them, as Ann Elizabeth Mayer demonstrates in her book, Islam and Human Rights – Tradition and Politics. "Distinctive Islamic criteria have consistently been used to cut back on the rights and freedoms guaranteed by international law, as if the latter were deemed excessive," she writes. "The literature arguing that Muslims may have human rights, but only according to Islamic principles, provides the theoretical rationales for many recent government policies that have been harmful for rights." [page 3]
Although there are many points of contention between the concept of universal rights and Islamic law (as variously conceived), the principal ones are in the areas of women's rights, freedom of religion, and the treatment of non-Muslims.
This is not to suggest that Islam is incapable of accommodating modern concepts of universal human rights. Individual freedoms are a relatively undeveloped area of Islamic law and Mayer suggests this is largely for historical reasons:
Since the pious Muslim was only supposed to understand and obey the divine law, which entailed abiding by the limits that God had decreed, demands for individual freedoms could sound distinctly subversive to the orthodox mind … The aim of Islamic law was generally conceived to be ensuring the wellbeing of the Islamic community, or umma, as a whole, in a situation where both the ruler and the ruled were presumed to be motivated to follow the law in order to win divine favour and avoid punishment in Hell. In consequence, shari'a doctrines remained highly idealistic and were not elaborated with a view to providing institutional mechanisms to deal with actual situations where governments disregarded Islamic law and oppressed and exploited their subjects. Scholars of Islamic law did not traditionally address issues like what institutions and procedures were needed to constrain the ruler and curb oppression; rather, they tended to think of the relationship between ruler and ruled solely in terms of this idealised scheme, in which rulers were conceived of as pious Muslims eager to follow God's mandate. [pp. 53–54]

[pp. 53–54]
Arguments about universality versus cultural relativism are often a red herring – a part of the political game. Arab states often invoke relativist arguments in an international context when they talk about "traditions", "the norms of Islamic law", etc, but they rarely apply relativist principles within their own countries. In other words, they tend to espouse cultural relativism or universalism as and when it suits them.
This is very similar to the way western governments often behave when they that claim to uphold universal rights but champion them more strongly among enemies than allies. The Arab states, through their membership of the UN and other bodies, are willing members of the international community; they accept the principle of international law and, along with other countries, play a part in formulating it. They are also among the first to complain about human rights abuses and infringements of international law where Israel is concerned.
In partially exempting themselves from international standards, the Arab states are not so much arguing for cultural relativism as for a form of cultural selectivity. What they are actually seeking to protect is not the sum-total of authentic local tradition but an imagined, officially-approved version of it which in some cases has to be imposed on reluctant citizens – for example, through the policing of dress codes and the closure of shops at prayer time. The Islamic "norms" that Saudi Arabia waves in international forums are not those of the country as a whole but of the Wahhabi sect, which happens to have become dominant through its political alliance with the royal family.If Arab governments really believed in cultural relativism as a principle they would surely also apply it within their own countries by insisting on respect for the different norms and traditions of whatever distinctive religious, ethnic or regional groups may be found within their own borders. Mostly they do not.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A Bay Terrace man was stabbed to death in Manhattan Tuesday night near a Lower East Side housing project, authorities said.
Police responding at 7:51 p.m. to a call for a man stabbed behind the Lillian Wald Houses discovered Luis Johnson, 29, with multiple stab wounds of his torso and arm.
He was rushed to Beth Israel Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
Officers at the scene arrested Louis Dawson, 36, of 20 Avenue D, a resident of Wald Houses.
According to media reports, Dawson had left the crime scene — ditching the knife under his car — then returned, pretending to be the victim.
During the scuffle, Johnson apparently slashed Dawson's hand with a razor blade.
The fight was occasioned by an argument between the men's girlfriends, who have court orders of protection against one another, a police source told the Daily News.
Dawson was charged with murder during his arraignment last night in Manhattan Criminal Court and remanded without bail to Rikers Island.
Johnson's family could not be reached for comment.

How Technology Thwarts the Real-Life Nurse Jackie
Randy Lipps, CEO of Omnicell, knew his medical surveillance technology was working when a certain hospital group (kept anonymous because of medical privacy concerns) reported a sharp spike in actions taken against staff for swiping drugs.
Nearly 7 million Americans are abusing prescription drugs according to the DEA, more than the number abusing cocaine, heroin, hallucinogens, Ecstasy, and inhalants, combined — an 80% increase over 2000. Some of that is average folks and their kids taking needed painkillers. But a significant portion involves those with mainline access to prescription pills and vials — health-care professionals.
Whether they're taking pills for their own use or to sell, so-called "diversion" is a growing problem. "Most hospital staff are doing the right thing but the access is there," Lipps says.
To thwart diversion (and help hospitals with compliance regulations) several companies including Omnicell and Pyxis began manufacturing automated dispensers fully loaded with layers of security such as individual ID numbers, measured doses, and bar codes. Then diverters unwittingly helped them find the flaws. "Health-care workers found legit ways to subvert the system to get a second dose," Lipps explains. So team Omnicell set to work on developing software to crunch the data that was being generated at the automated dispensing sites. The results, recently unveiled, were an eye-popping lesson in behavior patterns.
"Every single keystroke is looked at," Lipps says, from the way the staff accesses information to what they take out. The new data presents patterns, which Omnicell links to diversion. For example, Lipps says, if a patient is on a drug to be administered every four hours, a diverter will be making a withdrawal from the dispenser at three hours and 59 seconds. "But that's just one way," he says, explaining that the software allows them to look at an array of factors.
Forty-one hospitals are using or already contracted to use Omnicell's medication surveillance, at a cost of $1,000 per month. Lipps says this sophisticated approach of daily reporting directly to a pharmacy supervisor has led to the discovery of even more diversion cases, like the aforementioned hospital with its long list of staff actions.
One study showed that drug diversion could be as high as 18% among nurses, an issue recently made popular on the Showtime series Nurse Jackie, starring Edie Falco as a high-functioning nurse addict who delivers witheringly smart repartees to her doctor colleagues as enthusiastically as she crushes Percosets into her coffee. Though Falco's Nurse Jackie is too risky to be realistic, studies also indicate that nurses are more likely to be dealing with an occupational hazard: chronic back pain from spending hours on their feet as well as lifting and helping increasingly heavier patients and therefore more likely to use.
But nurses aren't the only culprits. "Anesthesiologists weren't suspected for a long time, because they are doctors," Lipps says, noting that Percoset tabs are administered in the OR before starting the IV dose, and he says, "You shouldn't put past them saving half a vial to inject later on."
George Shea, director of pharmacy of Sequoia hospital, can remember when the only thing standing between the meds and the user was a locked cabinet and a ledger. In the course of his 32 year career, Shea's even witnessed an anesthesiologist overdose on a patient's meds while on duty. "It was an extreme case," admits Shea, who's grateful that technology has stepped in and replaced the pencil, paper, and look-the-other way culture of the recent past.
"With the software detection, it is a lot easier to keep track of who does what. It is a major deterrent because they know someone can find out what they have done," Shea says, adding that even taking one pill at a time is enough to cause concern. "It is not observable but it can impair judgment throughout the day." Even routine tasks involve judgment, he says, and that can decrease a health-care worker's ability to function.
Jane Hirsch, RN, MS, a clinical professor and director at the UCSF School of Nursing, says automated surveillance has an unintended benefit because of its anonymity. "Staff tend to avoid those situations, it is awkward and uncomfortable to confront a colleague" — even though they know it is their responsibility to report diversion to a supervisor immediately, Hirsch says.
Now in his 40th year as a pharmacist, Ray Vrabel has held positions at the Mayo Clinic, Scripps, and UCLA and was even part of a DEA sting operation to catch a health-care worker who was stealing ephedrine to make meth. He says when it comes to controlled substance issues, you don't hesitate to deal with the person, however, firing them immediately is not the goal. "We are not trying to punish people just keep them honest," says Vrabel, but he and Shea agree that even in an age of automated dispensing and surveillance technology, drug diversion is still happening to the tune of between 1% and 9% of staff per facility. Shea points out that in a typical medium-sized community hospital with 1,000 employees, 1% is 10 workers. "That is very real," says Shea noting that goes beyond nurses to include physicians and any other workers dispensing controlled substances.
It's not a large amount of theft, but it's showing up more and more with systems like the one from Omnicell. "We live in a drug seeking world," Vrabel says. "We'll never stop watching."

ST. LOUIS — A Missouri woman nicknamed the "Madoff of the Midwest" for defrauding farmers of millions of dollars has reached a deal with prosecutors on state charges.
Grain dealer Cathy Gieseker, 45, of Martinsburg, is already serving a nine-year prison term after pleading guilty to federal mail fraud charges in November. Authorities say she bilked 179 farmers out of a combined $27.4 million.
Nanci Gonder, a spokeswoman for Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster, confirmed Thursday that a plea agreement on state charges has been reached but not signed. She declined to discuss details. The attorney general's office is handling prosecution of the case.
Gieseker's attorney, Travis Noble, did not return calls seeking comment.
At a court hearing on June 16 in Warrenton, a judge will decide whether to accept the plea agreement.
During the federal sentencing hearing in February in St. Louis, U.S. District Judge Charles Shaw ordered Gieseker to pay restitution. Gieseker apologized to the victims in court and pledged to do all she could to "make sure they are paid what they are owed." But state agriculture officials have estimated the victims will likely get about 2 percent of their losses back.
Gieseker and her husband, Timothy, ran T.J. Gieseker Farms and Trucking in Martinsburg. She continued the business after he died of cancer in 2007.
Prosecutors say Gieseker's scheme began in 2002. She told farmers she had contracts with Archer Daniels Midland Co. that would give them returns of 50 to 100 percent above market. ADM confirmed there was no such agreement, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Tom Albus said there was no evidence the company did anything wrong.
Instead, Gieseker sold the grain at spot prices. To keep the scheme going, she would sometimes pay inflated returns to some farmers as false evidence that she really had a contract, prosecutors said.
But other farmers started to worry as Gieseker kept putting off their payments, and eventually turned to regulators with the state agriculture department. An audit revealed financial irregularities.
The scheme has led some to refer to Gieseker as rural America's version of Bernard Madoff, the financier who pleaded guilty to bilking investors of billions of dollars. While the scale of Gieseker's theft didn't come close to Madoff's, many of her investors, like Madoff's, are facing financial ruin.
In a court document, prosecutors said 43 victims suffered losses in excess of $200,000, and seven suffered losses greater than $500,000.

Hot answers tagged storm-door
I agree with Jeff Widmer -- you don't need a bigger/stronger bracket, as it's not the bracket that failed, but longer screws to properly fasten the bracket.
Given that, your jamb repair doesn't need to be structural so don't sweat how strong it is and just make it look nice with whatever product you've used before and liked. After you drill your pilot ...
You can always install the spring.
Kids really love playing with these. Until it slams onto their little fingers.
Or you can install a closer.
These you mount high and it will limit the amount how far back a door will go and how fast the door closes. You can also lock it open when you bring the groceries in. If you already have a closer it either ...
What you want is both a closer and a chain. The chain will prevent the door from blowing open too far, slamming the piston of the closer against the door-frame, and bending it. The chain should also have a spring to cushion the shock of having the door blow open to the limit of the chain, but that spring isn't enough to shut the door; you need a closer for ...
Can you just use longer screws? The screws would not only go through the damaged wood but also into whatever support is behind it. Of course this would not work if you have a side light on that side.
The other thing to consider is not using a storm with a double closer, but just one on the bottom (although you may have a reason for the double closer).
The closer has a few purposes:
it closes the door so that you don't have to remember to every time. It will also pull the door closed if it opens accidentally (for example, if the wind catches the door).
it prevents the door from moving too fast, and usually prevents it from opening past about 90 degrees. (Anecdote: I know someone who didn't have a closer ...
You dont state what your problem is. You can install the door to the outside of the door frame. It looks like the top sticks out farther than the sides so you either have to add a board the thickness of the distance to the outside of the side frame. If you need more room for the frame flange at the top you can add a 1x2 board to the top of the door . With ...
They're called hold-open washers.
It won't be easy to assume based on your description. Perhaps post a photo of where the washer normally meets the metal?
It sounds like the washer is probably just bent. Maybe you can take it off and straighten it in a vice and try it again. If it comes down to it, and you want to save some money.. you can back the set ...
A shop that fabricates sheet metal can probably fabricate a new one. A company that installs metal roof systems would be a good candidate because they deal with pre-finished materials on a regular basis. An HVAC shop could probably also fabricate something but they are less likely to have a finished material.
If you're ambitious, you could perhaps fabricate ...
Routing and a bit of chiseling at the corners and the bottoms of the 2 legs shouldn't be too expensive if hired.
Good time to buy and learn to use a router. The transom is a bit tight, so you might need a rabbet plane or a oscillating multitool.
Just get a accurate drawing of what size rough opening the storm door wants.

Public Eye
All the trouble brewing in the 15th Congressional District has Eye inspecting Tom Campbell for an expiration date. The congressman's yes votes on two articles of impeachment have inspired cries for recall, angry letters and general discontent (see www.scc-democrats.org for all your "Impeach Tom" needs). During the weeks prior to the Dec. 19 House impeachment vote, Campbell's local and Washington offices were flooded with calls and emails (even crashed the server) from constituents wishing to weigh in on the issue. Chief of staff Casey Beyer told the Washington Post the numbers shook out 55 to 45 percent against impeachment--a slim majority, but a majority nonetheless. ... Now, Campbell staffers say the tenor of the phone calls shifted after their boss's vote, from shrill opinions to fawning congratulations. But not, Eye notes, from everyone. On the day of the vote, constituent Patricia Lauderdale fired off a withering fax in Campbell's direction in which she announced that she intended "to work diligently to support whomever the Democratic Party nominates to run against you." Well, Patricia, Eye may have a candidate for you. What has appeared on Eye's radar is an image of former Mayor Susan Hammer, her jaunty cap set for D.C. That's right, Eye has confirmed rumors that the ex-mayor's name is being tossed about in discussions about who could tumble Campbell in the next election. Democratic National Committee member and eBay bigshot Steve Westly soft-pedals: "The Democratic Party is clear that Campbell is a little more vulnerable than in the past. ... I'm sure there are a lot of the party leaders, myself included, who would be delighted if she gave it some serious thought." By no means is a Hammer congressional candidacy a done deal, however. Hammer might be looking to take a break from elective office; she recently announced during a gathering at the Hyatt that Gov. Gray Davis had offered her a "part-time" job. Also, our sources on the Peninsula say she's been lobbying hard to replace Colburn Wilbur as full-time executive director of the Packard Foundation.
A dent may indeed be in the Camster's future--from San Jose's own newly retired mayor, Susan Hammer. ...
Jury's In
Question: what do former civil grand jurors do with their spare time once they've been thrown off the jury? Answer: keep on investigating, apparently. Earlier this month, sources tell us, some of the grand jury dissidents did some dirt-digging on their old nemesis, Bill Larsen, who joined the Santa Clara DA's office after losing a 1982 race for San Mateo County DA. (Larsen, you may remember, went on a table-pounding, finger-pointing tirade against the dissidents during a grand jury session, threatening to have them jailed for making complaints to Judge LaDoris Cordell.) According to articles in the San Mateo County Times, which dissident jurors have been passing out all over town, Larsen was criticized by San Mateo police for interceding on behalf of Joe Montalbano, whom police had arrested for shooting someone during a barroom brawl. Joe was the son of August Montalbano, a local restaurant owner and one of Larsen's campaign fundraisers. A group of 11 San Mateo Superior and Municipal Court judges issued a statement against Larsen days before that 1982 election, charging the DA with "personal and inappropriate intrusion" in the Montalbano criminal case, which was eventually turned over to the California attorney general's office because of Larsen's conflict of interest. ... If all that sounds a little familiar, it was Larsen who was accused by past and present Santa Clara County grand jurors of helping San Jose Municipal Golf Course operator Mike Rawitser and Berryessa school superintendent Herbert Wadley evade the jury's scrutiny. Larsen didn't return calls, and DA George Kennedy is out of town at the state DAs' convention. But Kennedy earlier denied any Larsen wrongdoing in both cases in language too colorful to repeat here. Similar sentiments were shared by Larsen's previous boss, San Mateo DA Keith Sorenson, who defended Larsen in 1982, telling the San Mateo Times, "I have no problems with [the Montalbano case]. It looks to me that the matter has been blown out of proportion." ... Out of proportion or not, Larsen's history was reportedly one of the subjects discussed by Kennedy and San Jose NAACP reps last week. NAACP officials will only confirm that a meeting was held with Kennedy "to discuss a number of justice system concerns." But insiders say Kennedy may be looking for a way to show Larsen the door in the wake of the civil grand jury debacle.
Heading West
Two months after losing his bid for a seat on the San Jose City Council by a paltry 284 votes, Tony West has picked himself up, dusted himself off and landed a job with "special" in the title. West says he's leaving the local U.S. attorney's office to go to Sacramento to be one of four "special assistants" to California's top cop, Bill Lockyer. A bit of a change of pace for West: His former boss, Janet Reno, was 3,000 miles away; in his new job, he will report directly to the Lockster. The special assistants work on the attorney general's top priorities. West was tapped to head up high-tech crime--the first time such crimes have been deemed important enough to demand the attention of an exalted special assistant. Lockyer has promised more activism from the AG office, and he has already requested an extra $25 million over Pete Wilson's budget to prosecute civil rights and environmental cases. ... West plans to keep his primary residence in San Jose, and though he has a good working relationship with Highway 680, he plans to rent a crash-pad in Sacto for a few nights a week. As for his future political plans, West claims his special new appointment might not keep him from running for Blanca Alvarado's supe seat. "I wouldn't rule that out at all," he says. "San Jose is always going to be my home. I will always be committed to what's going on there."
Demo Derby
Peninsula Assemblyman Ted Lempert is facing the fact that he's termed out in the year 2000, and he's weighing a run against state Sen. Byron Sher, who is up for re-election next year. Supposedly, Lempert is asking people to hold off on endorsing the Stanford-area tree-hugging incumbent until Lempert makes up his mind. Meanwhile, the venerable Lord Byron is pounding his chest, letting out a yell through Sacramento's political jungle in hopes of scaring off opposition in the 2000 Democratic primary. Sher released three pages of endorsements, including those of the new lieutenant governor and attorney general, eight supervisors and seven mayors. When Lempert heard the commotion, he did some Tarzan-yelling of his own, phoning potential endorsers to tell them Sher may not be unopposed. Though many Demos would like to avoid a messy primary, Lempert seems reluctant to let himself get muscled out. "Maybe the best solution is to let voters decide," he says.

That damned sou hyun, Just when I came to like her.
It's sad how you can't even get the help you need because it will show up on your permanent record, SK sounds like a wonderful place to live in but then you realize that they have problems like everyone else...
holy sheet we just passed a hurdle and another one comes flying at us ;n;
so i was amazed to learn that one of the kids was jney...
Ha Na is very nosy, even though she's Na Ri's ex-friend, she should put limitations on what she should've done. The script writer probably is not aware to psychological stage of the 6th grader in the first place. No matter how mature or how good a 12/13 years old would be there's no way they'd act this way, even for a fictional plot this is exaggerating. We've all been 6th grader and for a fact we are aware how we acted back then. The only reason I'm watching this is because of the teacher Go Hyun Jung.
Time has changed. Now in our days, we DO act like this and rebel against our teachers, sometimes even more than Hana in this Drama. I was a six grader last year, and I'm a super rebellious girl even if I may seem nice and obedient on the outside. So, you can't just judge like this because it is very common for six-graders to be as "mature" as Hana, maybe even worse.shawolblingbling
No sixth graders are like that nowElvina
All the schoolgirls with the cute outfit and hairstyles make me want to have a daughter, seriously lol
while watching this drama i miss my elementary life soo sad miss my friends when i was grade 6!!!!!! THE BEST DRAMA
what was that teacher planning to do nowTina
Teacher Ma won't press charges because all the things she has said and done to the students would come out and she would lose her job.
Would have liked to see her get into big trouble at least once in this series.
Maybe there will be another series in the pipeline. Hope so
Kim Seo Hyun is a strong person in this drama, she doesen't try to let out her feelings, Hana is my favorite, and the teacher Ma <3
Wow!!! I really love this drama and the music green rain was fitted to it. Until here I'm still curious about the teacher. All her thoughts and logic are right but...you know..back of it there is something that I can't explain. I was amaze how her students followed her as she wants although there are times that students are rebelled but then back to normal again then rebelled then back to normal.. ashh!!! I'm really confuse about the teacher thoughts. I'm going crazy!! can't wait the next episode!!!:-) Actually, to tell you the truth, this is the only drama that I learned a lot of things. wow!!!! amazing! I think there is no episodes that It won't make me cry. I always cried in every episode..woahw! next episodes ?..please come as soon as possible;-) I really like and love it:-) muahh<3<3<3
Kim Seo Hyun is so pretty :) So far , the drama is so good !!!
I hate how Hana's friends are always freakin' betraying her. Seriously. She puts so much time and effort into helping them in difficult situations and then they go and stab her in the back. First Bomi, then Nari, and now even Seohyun? Seriously? Donggoo is the only one that has always stuck with her, through thick and thin. Hopefully Seohyun gets the snot knocked out of her like Bomi and Nari did and comes back to Hana's side soon.
And is it just me, or does it seem like witch teacher is starting to realize the fault in her ways? Like, she's not really saying anything, but the the look on her face in some scenes just makes her look like a lost puppy or something. Idk, but she seems to be getting softer now.
Slowly this Korean version seems different from the original version since the plot of this version is getting more fascinating. Especially when it comes to Seo Hyun's part.
I'm starting to like this version of The Queen's Classroom!
Ommggg there's always so much drama~!! But then again, I should of been warned by the genre: DRAMA. Ahhh DX
My Favourite character is Kim Seohyun
anyones elses
Same here (actually I'm a fan of her since from 'The Man From Nowhere). She's really a great actress! Now, That it's her part of story... it is going to be more interesting...01181995
why is shine there? i just cant understand how in the middle of all the difficults and everybody trying their best and everything going on all at the same time, they will stop and dance happily, does it even make sense? keke XD looking forward anyway
do you mean the song in the end of the episode ?.....lol...it's the ending song :Dkelpmeer
ye just an ost. no previews or anyhintg :)Anonymous
omg!i just love this drama! i rreally like their ost's it really suits the drama... cant wait for the next episode

Sick clowns? Please help...
Hey everyone, Im new to this site and hoping I can get some help from all you experts, and believe me compared to me you all are lol. First I'll give you all my tank info so you have an idea of my situation, I have a 90 gallon reef tank set up with a couple oscellaris clowns, couple blue-green chromis, a coral beauty, and a regal blue tang. Also have a few corals, inverts, and 100 lbs of live rock. My paramas are:
78 degrees F
ammonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 10
salinity 1.025
Now my question is about my clowns, I have had them for about a month and the last 3 days they have decided to stop eating, they are hiding in a corner, increased resp rate(~160 resp/min), and Im not sure of Im just going nuts but I think the top of their heads has gotten darker. To top it all of I woke up this morning to find one of them hosting in my daisy coral, could this be because it is tired? I didnt expect to see that when I thought he was sick!!
Anyways I am one of the not so smart newbies that decided Id do this without a quarantine tank(bad idea I know), so now I have one set up and running, ready for use. So the main question is WHAT DO I DO? Sorry for all the writing, just wanted to be exact.

West Brom manager Steve Clarke insists Barclays Premier League survival is still the main priority despite his side's flying start to the campaign.
Albion were lying in third spot after Saturday's 1-0 win over Reading lifted their points tally to 10 from the opening five matches.
A second-half strike from on-loan Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku was sufficient to maintain the Baggies' 100 per cent home record but Clarke has his feet firmly on the ground.
The former Chelsea number two said: "The aspirations are the same. We just go from game to game. There will come a point in the season where hopefully we can look at things, assess where we are, and put some definite targets down.
"But the primary objective for 75 per cent of the Premier League is to reach the margin of points that will keep you safe. That's what we're after.
"Yes, the start has been pleasing but I don't look at the table. I look at the 10 points from five games. I think it's a good return and a fair return.
"Everyone talks about 40 points as keeping you safe but you won't know for sure until you get the other side of January, whether the top teams win a lot of games or whether they don't. That normally decides the margin of safety."
Signing Lukaku has proved a masterstroke and he followed up his goal as a substitute against Liverpool with a clinical strike from the edge of the box in his first league start for Albion.
Clarke said: "I knew of him. Obviously he was a big star in Belgium and everyone was looking at him. He came across here and I have good contacts at Chelsea who knew about him.
"He didn't play much at Chelsea so obviously you're looking at him and seeing what he's like in training and how he's done.
"He had a number of clubs he could have gone to, we're just thankful he came here to the Albion.
"I'm not sure I want to take any credit for it. I had an open, honest conversation. I told him what he could expect in terms of training and I told him he could expect to play matches for us.
"I told him if he applied himself in the proper manner, he would go back to Chelsea a better player."
Reading are anchored at the foot of the table and still searching for their first win since being promoted from the npower Championship.
But Royals manager Brian McDermott is convinced results will improve once his players attain the heights he believes they are capable of.
McDermott said: "I just know our players are better than what we are showing at the moment.
"I know that, and we will be better as the games come thick and fast.
"The players are confident enough, they've just won the Championship.
"It's just a case of getting a result, keep going, doing the right things and not dwelling on what has gone on.
"In any league, you want to win games and you put the pressure on yourself to win games."
"Nothing will just land in our laps. But we had a difficult start last year and managed to pick ourselves up. "There is going to be no one moping around. We can't afford to have that in the camp. It is a case of getting each other going. "This has been the longest week ever after the performance against Spurs and this was an improvement on that, which wasn't that difficult. It is gradual steps."

Plaque is a clear, sticky substance made in the mouth. It clings to the teeth and gums. Plaque has bacteria that make acids and other chemicals that can damage the teeth, gums, and bone if the plaque is not removed.
Plaque forms all the time, but it can be controlled by proper brushing and flossing.
If plaque is not removed, it hardens into a rough substance called tartar or calculus. This is hard to get off the teeth. It is often removed as part of a dental cleaning and exam.

Dan - Unregistered December 14, 2012 1:14 PM Would be nice to see him and Alguersuari on the grid again. Give them one year in a good car and see how good they are, couldn't really do too much in the Toro Rosso 4 agree 9 disagree
hugo - Unregistered December 14, 2012 1:26 PM No idea if it's true, but this would be a strong move for Buemi. Ferrari have a history of placing their reserve drivers in customer teams, while Red Bull are hardly going to drop him back in at Toro Rosso. If he wants to keep his F1 career alive this may be his best bet. 6 agree 1 disagree
Taz December 14, 2012 2:48 PM He's not good enough for a top team.Red Bull realised that. Alguersuari is a much better prospect and he can't get a drive. Reply Report abuse 8 agree 7 disagree
sodesu - Unregistered December 14, 2012 4:48 PM Yes but Alguersuari doesn't have fresh experience from testing a Newey car. This could be a win-win actually. If he does get another chance it'll be interesting to see what he can do in another car. He was pretty good at Toro I think, his and Algy's curse were that they were so evenly matched. Hard to tell if it's because they were both brilliant or both rubbish really. 1 agree 0 disagree
atx2012 - Unregistered December 14, 2012 5:12 PM While it may be a legitimately good move by Ferrari, there could be several ulterior motives also at play. First, as has already been pointed out, Buemi has recent experience with the Red Bull/Newey designs and would be a potential source of information about the design and upcoming changes... to the extent he has any knowledge of what he is testing. Second, it is just another small disruption for Red Bull, much like the rumor of Vettel to Ferrari in 2014 and Ferrari seems to delight in this type of gamesmanship with Red Bull. Of course, this is just another rumor and again that's in keeping with the Ferrari ethos. 2 agree 1 disagree
JJJ - Unregistered December 14, 2012 6:09 PM Last Edited 863 days ago If I were him I'd jump at any decent oppertunity to get away from Helmut, who pretty much screwed him and Algy over last year (not necessarily by not giving them a ride for this year but definitely in the way it was done by leading them on and then dropping them at the very last minute). A case of better the devil you don't know (Ferrari) in this case I would say. 4 agree 0 disagree
David Chaste - Unregistered December 15, 2012 12:35 AM I would take the ferrari offer. It would give more exposure. And it looks like he might have more value to them as well 0 agree 0 disagree
Thierry Saint-Oyant - Unregistered December 15, 2012 3:57 AM Bianchi drove the 2012 Ferrari for the first time at the Magny Cours test, and he was primarily Force India's test driver. It doesn't make sense to say that he had a role in Ferrari's lost of the title. 0 agree 0 disagree

The department's Office of Fiscal Accountability and Compliance is seeking to recover the state-funded portion of the contract -- currently more than $101,000 -- for violating bidding laws.
"Whatever we need to do to make corrections, we'll do," Superintendent Mark B. Miller said.
The school district sent Request for Proposal (RFP) requests to five security firms after deciding to privatize security. Officials believe that security services fall under a professional services contract, which does not require publicly advertising.
The state disagrees with that definition.

Kostroma's wealth of art and architecture is owed to the legacy of such retreats. Visitors should not miss the Hypatian Monastery and the historic city center around Susaninskaya ploshchad. Kostroma outside the historic center is grey and industrial and off the itinerary for most tourists.

Hello, I recently had to send in my Incredible for a replacement due to a faulty speaker component, and have had nothing but trouble with this refurbished Incredible they sent me in return. The problem I am having is Sense apparently restarting frequently when returning to the home screen. I have found no rhyme or reason as to when or why this happens, it seems to be random but is very annoying as it takes around 10 seconds to finish. I tried several solutions found in other threads that I will mention here: 1. Battery pulls 2. Factory resets 3. Root I am currently trying out a solution provided to an EVO user here: http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...ing-white-screen-green-htc-text-app-exit.html involving app management and the app Spare Parts, and will report back on the results. I was also thinking of downloading the Incredible port of the Gingerbread update, but am hesitant to do so in case I need to revert and send this phone in for ANOTHER replacement for Verizon (which would be unlikely to help, I went through about 4 refurbished Palm Pixi's of theirs in the past with no luck, things were terrible). Like I said the phone came to me clean, and has been wiped clean twice now via two methods of factory reset. No apps have been installed from the market, I have not touched the factory-state and am still having the issue. Anyways, I would be very appreciative if anyone has any advice, thanks in advance! EDIT: The Spare Parts solution did not work.
I'm having the same problem but on my Eris. Searched numerous threads but can't find an explanation or fix. Anyone?
Task killers tend to cause this very problem or anopther app that is a resourse hog. If it's not an ATK I would assume it's hardware. I know people that had to send in 4 or 5 refurbs in a row before they got a good one.
Perhaps use Launcher Pro in place of Sense and see if things improve. Only other thing i can think of is a fresh reload of 2.2. If there were some odd pre-existing glitch with the initial load of 2.2 on your phone, a factory reset wouldn't necessarily help the matter. Then again, hardware issue certainly can't be ruled out but these actions would make a strong case to reveal the most likely culprit if you didn't mind the effort.
