Comet C/2013 A1 May Hit Mars In 2014 150

astroengine writes "According to preliminary orbital prediction models, comet C/2013 A1 will buzz Mars on Oct. 19, 2014. C/2013 A1 was discovered by ace comet-hunter Robert McNaught at the Siding Spring Observatory in New South Wales, Australia, on Jan. 3. When the discovery was made, astronomers at the Catalina Sky Survey in Arizona looked back over their observations to find "prerecovery" images of the comet dating back to Dec. 8, 2012. These observations placed the orbital trajectory of comet C/2013 A1 through Mars orbit on Oct. 19, 2014. Due to uncertainties in the observations — the comet has only been observed for 74 days (so far), so it's difficult for astronomers to forecast the comet's precise location in 20 months time — comet C/2013 A1 may fly past at a very safe distance of 0.008 AU (650,000 miles). But to the other extreme, its orbital pass could put Mars directly in its path."

"We sent out Fall Christmas cards this year to avoid the December rush--this format was perfect for the occasion. The 9 images on the front were individual shots of our kids and grandkids, and the back was a photo of the entire clan with our 2013 Greetings message. Tiny Prints also made sure that the aspect ratios for the photos were perfect!"
"Loved the ability to "create" 5 x 5 cards with that strip across the top. I used multiple small images. Especially appreciate the opportunity to purchase extra proper sized envelopes so as not to have to pay the extra postage for a square card. Good Job Tiny Prints!"
"If you're not sure if you should order this . . . don't hesitate! I used this as a "thank you" card after a charity run. Everyone loved them! I had a lot of people from out of state, so it was a wonderful way to share the day with them while acknowledging their donations. Be aware though it comes out as a matte finish . . . it may say that in the description, but I was expecting a more glossy print (like the sample). In any event, they turned out very well, and I was very happy with my order. I was also surprised with how easy it was to upload photos - a very user friendly site."
"Great option for wedding thank you cards! We had a lot of older relatives who could not attend our wedding. I was so happy there was a reasonably priced photo card that allowed for multiple pictures, so they could see several images.Service was accurate, timely, and delivered promptly."
"I used this card as a moving announcement. I just changed the text to say what I needed it to say. I love the layout with the four pictures on the front, and I added a picture to the back of the card as well. I will say I was just a little disappointed in the print quality. In one of my pictures there is a small white dot on every single card. It is hardly noticable, but since they are my cards I did notice. Overall I love how they look, and I'm sure our friends and family will love them as well."

CFOs understand that knowing their company's performance relative to their competitors is critical to setting financial performance improvement goals and priorities, yet some companies do not have an accurate understanding of their relative performance, according to a Deloitte study. Study co-authors Michael E. Raynor and Derek Pankratz explain how CFOs can address this challenge by anchoring a company's financial goal-setting process in a statistically rigorous benchmarking method.

My Holiday Wish ListTweet
I disagree.
My favorite kinds of gifts are ones that are handmade and from the heart--poems, crafts, blankets (DH actually made me a blanket!).
In fact, for our stocking stuffers, instead of little gifts, we all write notes to each other about our favorite memories of the past year and what we look forward to in the next.
But when it comes to things that you can actually buy in a store, I love practical gifts.
You may think this is odd, but in the past I've requested and gotten a Food Saver, a George Foreman Grill, and a Crock Pot!
There are a lot of things on my wish list this year of similar nature--a steamer carpet cleaner, a bread machine, a new camera, "green" cookware...
I don't know if I'll get any of those for the holidays (or maybe I'll end up buying them myself), but maybe DH will read this so he can start doing some research!
What "material" things (things you can buy in a store) are on your wish list this year?
Sage and Savvy is brought to you by Hawaii Mom Bloggers sharing the latest in products, movies, and more!

I too like handmade things, which are always on my list. Plus nice yarns for knitting too, but I can't rely on my husband to pick out good ones!
I think this year we're putting money towards a bathroom renovation. Not exactly thrilling, but so necessary! So I guess a toilet is on my list. :)

I'm a big video game person, so in a way I'm being a bit sneaky this year in buying the kids' presents, because they're all things that I will enjoy playing too! They're getting the Kinect for Xbox and a couple of new Nintendo DSi consoles. So I'm happy with that. :)

Love the idea about doing notes as stocking stuffers. I am also considered hard to buy for as I don't need much so I like getting homemade or gourmet foods that I normally wouldn't splurge on. Great way to try out things and get gifts you enjoy instead of putting in the closet.

SANTA ANA It's an opportunity for change, and a new vision. A threshold moment when the community can seek an exceptional leader to help guide it toward excellence.
But it won't come without challenges, and for some Santa Ana residents, an effort to regain their trust.
Santa Ana officials announced last week the resignation of City Manager Paul M. Walters. On Monday,they will meet in closed session to deal with the appointment of an interim and the "dismissal/release" of Walters. The council will take up "any final issues that may need to be resolved," City Attorney Sonia R. Carvalho said.
Walters' resignation followed weeks of citizen speculation about what was going on at City Hall. Just six months after hiring former police chief Walters as city manager, the City Council began a series of closed-door performance evaluations with him, culminating in a 6-1 dismissal vote on Jan. 22.
"In order for a city to thrive and do well, it needs to have the right people in the right position both for the current season and for the future of that organization," Councilman David Benavides said. "Paul stepped in at a time where we needed someone to bring stability after our long-term city manager retired, and he helped us through that season. As we look toward the future of the city, it was timely for us to act. The question remained as to whether it continued to be the best fit."
Some residents saw the move as a power play by a council majority flexing its muscle to spite the mayor, Miguel Pulido – the lone vote for Walters. Others saw it as more nuanced, a chance for what some call the "Santa Ana spring" to provide new direction for the city.
Much is at stake for Santa Ana: its financial health, its quality of life and its credibility.
Unemployment hit 15 percent during the economy's slump, and jobs have been slow to rebound. The city, which had been on the brink of bankruptcy, balanced its current budget, but after gaining labor concessions and contracting for fire services with the Orange County Fire Authority. Like other California municipalities, it's grappling with the state over the dissolution of redevelopment, including a state demand for millions of dollars.
The way community activist Tish Leon sees it, the council has been engaged in a power struggle, with a majority facing off against Mayor Pulido.
She said she agrees with the need for change, but doesn't think the council went about it correctly.
The council should have kept Walters in place while it conducted a nationwide search for a replacement, she said. An interim appointment, especially one from in-house, might end up with the permanent appointment just as did Walters, who had been named the interim city manager in May 2011.
"Miguel convinced everyone to keep Walters, so they did," Leon said. "Who is to say that won't happen again?"
Alfredo Amezcua, a lawyer and facilitator of a group called the Santa Ana Coalition for Better Government, said the city should have completed its national search after former City Manager David Ream left and Walters took the interim slot.
"Ream was a product of the '40s and '50s," he said. "But in the last 10 to 15 years, the demographics have changed."
He sees a council that is divided.

Steve Jobs: 1955 - 2011
Apple is reporting that Steve Jobs passed away today. The co-founder of Apple and the guiding mind behind the Mac, iPod and iTunes, Pixar and Apple Retail, iPhone and iPad, Jobs was 56 years old, and is survived by his family, friends, colleagues, and an industry he helped innovate and inspire.
CUPERTINO, Calif., Oct 05, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today.
Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.
His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts.
Apple has posted a page containing the following message:
Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.
If you would like to share your thoughts, memories, and condolences, please email firstname.lastname@example.com
Steve Jobs' family has issued the following statement:
Steve died peacefully today surrounded by his family.
In his public life, Steve was known as a visionary; in his private life, he cherished his family. We are thankful to the many people who have shared their wishes and prayers during the last year of Steve's illness; a website will be provided for those who wish to offer tributes and memories.
We are grateful for the support and kindness of those who share our feelings for Steve. We know many of you will mourn with us, and we ask that you respect our privacy during our time of grief.
Tim Cook has sent out the following email to Apple employees:
I have some very sad news to share with all of you. Steve passed away earlier today.
Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.
We are planning a celebration of Steve's extraordinary life for Apple employees that will take place soon. If you would like to share your thoughts, memories and condolences in the interim, you can simply email firstname.lastname@example.com.
No words can adequately express our sadness at Steve's death or our gratitude for the opportunity to work with him. We will honor his memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work he loved so much.
We have no words, other than to express our deepest gratitude for everything he gave us, and our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and colleagues.

Steve Jobs: 1955 - 2011
I know, for someone I never met I feel incredibly sad over his death. With all the articles, video and conjectures over what he was thinking I feel like in some way I did know him and actually found myself rooting for him. I hope the company he founded stays true to his vision. As much as I can say I will truly miss him I know that is nothing compared to how his family is feeling and I wish them all the best.
Very sad.
Terribly sad.
Terrible. Just terrible.
R.I.P. Steve Jobs. You will be missed!
Thanks Steve!
Rest in peace.
A visionary, a pioneer, A legend. RIP Steve.
As an android user, I can't say I liked Steve Jobs as a person. But it is impossible to deny the contributions he made in the world of technology. For that I respect him and will miss his genius, and some times crazy, ideas.
As an android user you can't say you liked Steve Jobs as a person? That makes absolutely no sense. If you didn't like him as a CEO, developer, engineer, etc., that makes sense. You have no idea who he was as a person. And to base that fact on something as trivial as a mobile operating system...
It has nothing to do with him being the creater of Apple and all that. It was just a way of me showing that even the fans of his competitor's company respected his work.
And as a person, I think he had some severe issues with how he adressed his competitors, their customers, as well as his own companie's customers. It is entirely possible for me to admire his work and contributions but dislike him as a person. If you couldn't read that far into my comment.. sorry for not making it simpler I guess.
I agree. That comment was a result of a cult-like loyalty to an OS. Crazy. Im afraid many Android & iOS users fall prey to that mind set. We must appreciate all technology, not worship it or its CEO. RiP SJ
Sorry you use Android. One can not deny his vision, passion, and determination.
oooommmmmmgggggggg how is this fuking possible
RIP. I hope they don't do anything tacky like a giant apple logo for the head stone. He deserves class.
Wow.. Thanks Steve for all you did for us..giving us the best phone in the world and more....
Thank you Steve, you have been and will continue to be an inspiration. Our sympathies to your loved ones.
Rest in peace
Thanks Steve
May he Rest In Peace he is more a lesson of perseverance other than anything else he is the prove that if we believe in ourself and try our best we can make our dreams come true
Wow!!! I am shocked. I just found out. What a great man he was! He really was amazing!!! RIP Steve. You will be missed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such a loss.
So many revolutions were carried out thanks to him, his work, and the team he assembled around him..
You'll be missed
I couldn't believe this was real at first... : R.I.P Steve Jobs, you'll be missed
This would be the ultimate "And One More Thing" - a posthumous, pre-recorded unveiling of the iPhone 5.
RIP Steve Jobs...I guess that's why it was a very somber presentation yesterday
The guy looked bad at WWDC. If only he had stepped aside sooner to focus on his health.
"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do," he told the Stanford grads in 2005.
"If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on."
Truly difficult. So sad
Same thing I said to my wife. Very difficult indeed!
He held on to see his next baby unveiled.
RIP Steve
From biggest android fanboy Rip you changed the world
I am at a loss for words... I didnt have baseball heroes or football heroes I grew up watching Steve Jobs wishing to be like him... It may sound silly but Steve Jobs was my hero... RIP
R.I.P. Mr. Jobs. :-(
RIP Steve.
thanks steve for all that you have done
RIP Steve Jobs , you will go down in History in the same league as Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and the Wright Brothers as an investors who have changed the course of humanity
Don't you mean inventors??
Rest in peace Steve.
RIP Mr. Jobs. You were a genius and you broke much ground. From the Apple II, to the Mac, to the iDevices. Your presence will be missed.
oh, wow! :( sooo sad. this is such a loss to the world :(
Rest in peace Mr. Jobs and thank you for your contribution to the world. Thinking Different is indeed magical!
Little creepy, but a sad lott none the less. Although I'm not a fan of the iphone, the man definitely had a huge impact on the tech world. It's hard to say where the mobile world and beyond would stand today without him as some of the technology that was created under his watch molded how other companies progressed over the years.
"In appreciation of Steve Jobs: Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they're not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
At first when I saw the post at Android Central , I thought Phill was kidding or something , but damn
Loved Steve or Hated him , you gotta admit that he was a real genius & his visions did change the world & owe him allot for the technologies we have today
Our prayers goes to his family
Rest In Peace ... Steve
I can hardly believe it, RIP Steve, thank you for the iPhone and everything else that was inspired by it. Thanks for pushing your competitors to keep innovating.
Also not a fan of Apple mobile products any longer but it's a sad day. Steve Jobs paved the way for technology and made us all have better products. He will be missed.
Very Sad.. Life wont be the same anymore. R.I.P Steve Jobs!!

Here's to Steve!
God Bless Steve Jobs. He will missed.
I will preface this by saying I am typing this on my MacBook Pro, but could just as easily do it with my iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, and I will will probably go to hell for it also. Buuuuut, if I had grown Apple to what it is today and then turned it over for them to have that keynote yesterday, I would have died also.
With that said I had a lot of respect for what the man has done not only for Apple, but for the technology industry as a whole
R.I.P. Steve Jobs. A great loss to innovation and quality, if only others could follow his lead in the world i think it would be a better place. Strive for perfection push the limits and do things that people said could not be done. I never wish that people may suffer in life but nice to know that his is over.

To Steve!
Rest In Perfection Mr. Jobs!!!! Although I'm an Android user, I haven't purchased a PC since I bought my 1st MacBook in 2006 & I refuse to go back...you changed they way I view computers just as you did for many others. You will definitely be missed but never forgotten!!!!
I am very saddened by this news. I feel like someone very close to me has died and I couldn't get there to say goodbye. You will be missed Steve.
An Apple and Macintosh user from Way back in 1983.
Wow... Just wow, about 2 months ago he resigns and now this. RIP Steve you were truly a visionary. I just hope that the technology companies of the world that rival Apple will be able to honor his memory as well, as the smartphone, PC, and tablet markets would be nothing like they are today without Steve's vision. May his guidance lead the path of the future...
I am very saddened by this news. I feel like someone very close to me has died and I couldn't get there to say goodbye. You will be missed Steve.
An Apple IIc and Macintosh user from 1983 to present
I am a fan of Apple and Android and Steve Job will be missed dearly. I believe because of his ideas Apple and Android are were they are today. Honestly I'm surprised that the event even took place yesterday with this happening. Again Steve you will be missed.
You all can take the iPad/iPhone and shove it up yer bums!!! With that said, Steve RIP. You will be missed by all.........
may you rest well and in the hands of angels. your creative mind now becomes a part of a greater compendium. rest easy my friend, rest easy.
RIP Steve! You were a visionary and you changed the personal computer world with your Macs; the portable music world with the Ipod and the mobile phone world with the iPhone. Not to mention how music is purchased ala iTunes! Your legacy lives on in what you have created and the changes you have led. Your impact will be felt for some time to come. God bless you and your family! You will be missed!
To say I was shocked when I came to check the latest 4S news would be an understatement. I'm oddly saddened in a way that I wouldn't have expected myself to be. It's not like I knew the guy; but in a way, I think we all did. Just a little bit.
I hate the Macintosh with a passion. I love Apple products, but I truly abhor OS X. For a long time, the Macintosh hatred kept me from touching anything Apple, but I just couldn't resist the siren song of the iPod 2G, with its 20GB of storage. That's when it began. Now, I own more Apple products than any other technology company, including if you factor in any product that uses electricity in my house.
To say that Jobs touched the world in a way that was profound would be an understatement. He redefined the world through technology and vision. Whether you're a Mac/Apple hater, a fanboi, or simply indifferent, it's undeniable what he has done to change the landscape of the 21st century, both from a technology standpoint as well as a business one.
I hope, for all of our sakes, that he left a roadmap of his vision for the future. If not, I shudder to think of the task that the people that are left to fill his gigantic shoes are undertaking.
Whoever that is, I truly hope they "Think Different". RIP Steve. You'll be missed.
The world has lost a visionary leader. I may not be a quote/ "apple fanboy" end quote, but Steve Jobs led the way to technology being a part of our daily lives. Great man, a brilliant mind, and a visionary leader has left us. We all owe a part of our time here to respect this great person.
Well said.
I agree. Like i said it might be the end or it might be a new fresh start. As a person i human being i wish Steve all the best in heaven but as a person i just couldnt stand Steve very much. I just wish he would had been a better person. Rest in Peace Steve.
Today, it doesn't matter which platform I use. Thought and prayers for the family and apple employees...not an easy thing to go through, especially at a time when they would like to be focusing on their new product launch.
It's a very sad day. I remember in elementary school that the computer room was all older Mac computers and I couldn't get one at home because we didn't have the money but my Uncle had one and I loved going over to use it. Since I'm older and am able to work now, I have almost every Apple product.
I look up to you Steve Jobs because I wish I had the patience and skills to do what you did.
BlackBerry phones would not be what they are today if it were not for Steve Jobs. He was a man who defined the future. My deepest condolences to his family, friends and many fans.
Quit being a trolling asshole. Steve you will be missed. RIP. I truly feel like someone close to me has passed.
Gone before his time. Rest in Peace Steve. You memory will live on. You truly changed the world.
Not many human beings can say that they changed the way that people think in a positive way to benefit humanity. While Steve Jobs did not save lives, he certainly gave us many means of making our lives easier, happier & more productive.
I am grateful to be free of the headache that is Windows.
I am grateful that we have a better choice in technology that constantly strives to push the envelope.
I am grateful to have a simplified 'all-in-one' device that is more than I could've ever dreamed of.
Godspeed, Steve. Godspeed.
I'm really sadden a true visionary tech is no longer with us,..a true apple fan here
RIP to the best CEO to ever live. One who started the company, brought it up when it was struggling, and became the face of the company.
"almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important."
- Steve Jobs

R.I.P. Steve....condolences to you family and friends.
Our grandchildren and great grandchildren will think of Steve Jobs in the same manner as we think of Thomas Edison. Complete genius. Think Different.
Now that is just disrespectful. And totally uncalled for
i gave him a rest in peace. So what is disrespectful? That i didnt like him as person? I dont have to an everyone has to agree lately everything apple wasnt reinventing and other companies surpassed apple. But this isnt what matters. rest in Peace Steve.
Thank you BNC2
Then why do you keep doing it?
I once wrote an essay in 8th grade. The question was if you could have lunch with any famous person in history, dead or alive, who would it be and what would you say to them. I wrote all about Steve Jobs and how I always wanted to meet him. He was my hero growing up. R.I.P Steve. You have changed the world in so many ways!
I had to go to other websites and google to make sure this wasn't a bad prank or something.. I'm truly speechless. Rest in peace Steve Jobs.
My sincere prayers to him and his family. Everybody will die some day but the most important is what you did before you died. He is as important for humanity as Edison who invented electricity, and as many other great men and women. Rest in piece and God bless you Mr. Jobs...... so sad so tearful..
May he rest in the big iCloud in the sky.
Let me begin by saying that Steve Jobs was one of the greatest American stories in our brief history. He was truly a visionary. Without his insistence on doing things the Steve Jobs way, most of us would still be trying to figure out some terrible Creative MP3 player and how to get music on to it. We would likely be using overpriced feature phones or worse yet Windows Mobile 6.x devices. It is utterly astounding what this man has meant to so many.
That being said, I have been on the opposite side of Apple and Steve for most of my life. Everybody else had an Apple IIe when i was in grade school...I had a Commodore 64. In middle school - the Mac. Me? Commodore Amiga. I've been a PC enthusiast for most of the last 20 years without exception. I even prefer Android for myself (wife and son both have iPhones) when it comes to mobile devices. In short, I personify somebody who should not be affected in any way by this news. That could not be further from the truth.
You see..for years, I have been a fan of technology and the computer industry. I have read books, had a subscription to Byte magazine as a kid, gotten in physical altercations over the fact that programmable sprites and multi-voice sound chips were vastly superior to what the Apple II was pulling over on all of us. But they still came. My Amiga 500 was based on the same processor as the original Mac, just with a slew of custom chips allowing animation, full fidelity multi-channel sound, and the ability to display over 4,000 color on the screen at the same time. The Mac was essentially a black and white screen and passable-at-best mono sound. But they still came...
I could go on about the thousands of products that were 'better' than what Steve up with down in Cupertino - technically. More memory, faster processors, blah blah blah. It didn't matter. The Apple faithful still followed him like some kind of half-crazy, wild-eyed mock turtle neck wearing pied piper. Its not the box - its the experience. That is what Steve taught me. Innovate and develop the best products in the world to use as if nobody is watching. Talk to people and actually listen to what they are saying they want. Give it to them.
Steve Jobs has been an inspiration, a source of frustration, and at times a perceived enemy for many of us. But I cried when the CBS news broke in tonight. I shed tears because even when his ideas seemed frankly stupid and I had to shut off one of his over the top product introductions with the covered device on some plexiglass altar to his Steveness...he was like family. I felt like i knew him. He was the uncle that I got in petty arguments with at Thanksgiving. He was the kid in class who never seemed to study, but somehow pulled an A out at the last minute.
There is a giant void in the world tonight because he is no longer with us and it hurts. He has been a part of my life since age 8 in one way or the other. It is like we have all lost a member of the family this evening.
I was in an AT&T store when a worker broke the news. Truly saddened and stunned. The challenge he presented to Google and Android is why we all have what we do today.
Steve you will be missed by the world. I have been in the IT field for almost 2 decades and until I started using Apple products I truly never enjoyed technology. Steve and Apple revolutionized the technology industry and I personally am very thankful and grateful for that. RIP Steve, you will be missed
Sent from my iPad
He'll be missed, for his visionary approach to everything, from hardware to movie making to transforming entire industries and markets.
RIP steve rip i am a blackberry and iPhone person but that dosent matter anymore.
Inventor, innovator, visionary, entrepreneur, awesome CEO, brilliant are just some of the words that come from my lips.
These words come from a guy who uses ABSOLUTELY NO APPLE PRODUCTS!!!!
That however does not stop me from paying homage to this awesome individual. He was a freakin' business genius who did only ONE semester in college and started Apple at the ripe old age of 21!!!!!
The sole reason I do not use his products are because of the closed nature of iTunes et al.
So for a phone I use a BB, for a tablet a Playbook, and the fugly Windows for a PC (used to use AMIGA).
So... from a geek oriented type of guy... We are gonna miss you Steve! Look at what your replacement just announced and how he did it.
Just isn't the same is it?
RIP dude, you RAWK!
Well i speak 7 different languages were my native one is German. How many different languages can you WRITE READ SPEAK? meaning my IQ must be pretty high. And i know Americans cant handle the freedom of speech. Well to bad. I say what i want when i want it.
Fighting over who's phone does this or my OS does that seems pointless now doesn't it? Even though this day was expected it still hits hard. That someone none of us knew personally, maybe even didn't care for professionally, touched our lives in profound ways that we have yet to truly appreciate.
Yes I'm Android fan but I'm also a fan of technology & those who bring it to us. I think the most fitting tribute we can pay to Steve Jobs is to say a kind word & thank him for our love of technology.
Go rest high on that mountain good sir... Your work here is done.
Dear Steve
You have made this world a lil bit better with the thigs that you have giving us and you will be miss but never forgotten may you rest in pace and the world will never forget you
God Bless You MR JOBS
To try to make a positive out of such sad news, please go to pancan.org and donate to find a cure to the most devastating form of cancer there is. I will be walking in Purplestride Orange County 2011 for my father in law who passed away two years ago of this dreaded form of cancer. I know this may look like someone trying to profit from this tragedy but it is not, I am just looking for some way to make things better. To donate to my team walking the link is below, if you don't trust it (which I don't blame you if you don't) then like I said go to pancan.org and donate.
And swearing shows a level of low IQ. Try insulting someone smart not with swearing. Have a nice day.
Writing this from my SAMSUNG GALAXY 2 EPIC TOUCH.
whats up with the iPhone 4s still being 3G lmao! apple your next
- not the time to bash apple
- 4g isn't in every single market yet, and there is no set standard for it (each company has a different varrient, HSPA, LTE and Wimax, among others) so making it 3g would make the most sense, since this phone is going to be on multiple carriers.
Rest in peace steve jobs.
Thanks Rene for getting all of those quotes together! You're on the ball.
All of us are only here for a limited time, but some of us burn brighter and hotter than others. Steve Jobs was a shining star, leading the way for innovation. I will miss him too, but his legacy will continue.
I am very sadden by this news. Words can not express the sadness I feel of losing such a great visionary and leader. I never thought I would feel this away about a person I have never met. You will be sorely missed by those you have touched all over the world. My condolences to Steve's family and Apple. Rest In Peace.
RIP Steve. You will be missed, because you have made so many profound changes in our lives. Thank You.
RIP Steve. You changed more than just apple. You changed lives with your creativity. No matter what everything we see and love about the mobile market comes from your ideas and a speech back in June of 2007. From that everyone has their love of their apple android windows etc products and wouldn't know what they do without them. The small things that keep us connected I contribute to you. Thanks
I think of most things in life as either a Bob Dylan or a Beatles song.
Me & my iPhone, iPad, iPod & iMac are gently weeping.
Since I couldn't find a good Steve Jobs wallpaper I made one. It has two of his (in my opinion) best quotes and a picture of Steve in the middle. It's my way to honour him.http://imageshack.us/f/59/stevejobswallpaper1280x.jpg/
Not to burst your bubble......but Steve Jobs said this.Dont try and pass it off as your own.
Here's the original quote:"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
R.I.P Steve Jobs .. Goodbye .. May Allah Bless You Always, Amen ..
Steve Jobs was an amazing man, an innovator in countless industries and it is fair to say that not just ssmartphones, but also computers would not be where they are today if it was not for Steve Jobs... One of the greatest minds in computing and telecommunitcations, EVER.
Apple however, should be particularly thankful as Steve Jobs single-handedly brought them back from the brink of bankruptcy to be THE most valuable company in North America, and one of the most valuable in the entire world!
If you ask me, Apple should offer to pay for ALL of the expenses related to his death, and maybe even stream the funeral to the world...
Goodbye Mr Jobs, you will be missed.
Former BlackBerry now Android user, disliker of iOS, but even I find this a major major loss. Remember, Steve Jobs had the ideology that he could completely change the world of phones. He had the courage to go for broke and do it. He achieved it. He led a very vivid life and was very good at what he did. As I post this from my MacBook, I send my respects to him, his family, and his friends. May you change the face of the afterlife Steve, I'm expecting something like the iPhone selling like hotcakes up there when I eventually arrive!
and to quote the RIM Facebook page to say that prove that competitors should also respect this great loss: Steve Jobs was a great visionary and a respected competitor. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and to all of the employees of Apple.
Very few individuals decide to follow their heart and do what they truly care about for all of their adult life. Steve did. His quote from the last Whole Earth Catalogue "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish" almost describes him. No wonder he and Waz shook up the world together.
A sad day for Apple and the world, but our next day.
So - "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish"
Brings back loosing my Dad to cancer a year and half ago. We all loved Steve for what he did with Apple and giving us amazing products and his creative brilliance. But its his family that will suffer this pain for a long time. We will move on, but the pain that cancer leaves behind in its wake is bigger than Apple. I pray for the end of cancer and for all those who have suffered in death and caring for the loved ones who were taken way to early by this cruel disease.
Rest in God's Peace
Pure Poetry. Your words are the truth.
A new acquaintance of mine had an interesting response..
"RIP to those workers who perished. Sorry, jobs, i've never cared for you, or your work ethic." w/ link: http://www.christianpost.com/news/steve-jobs-ignored-poisoned-workers-pl...
I have an idea for a way of keeping Steve close to the heart of Apple, They should add a Steve voice to IOS and Mac OS X.
He was a great showman as well as everything else and what better way for the show to go on.
Holy COW! I'm stunned! .... I seen a few things on the internet today but I never had the chance to actually READ anything. When I seen the header of this article I was like "WHAT!????" ..... I thought it was just a clever heading and that Steve Jobs was just retiring or something. Geese, he was only 56. What the hell did he die of????? ..... anyone know?
Pancreatic cancer
I never got to meet Steve Jobs. It was a dream of mine; I mean I looked up to the guy. I admired all the work he had done all throughout the years. Products like the iMac, iPod, iPhone and iPad all changed the world.
I have been interested in Macintosh my whole life, just could never afford it. I have had numerous iPods my whole life, but never a Macintosh. I remember when I had enough money to buy my first mac, I was ecstatic. So I went to Comp USA and purchased my first mac computer. I loved that computer, best computer I have ever had; until I sold it. I regret selling that computer, but I had to sell it to make ends meet for myself.
I would always look forward to a Steve-Note. (That's what us apple fanatics call the Keynotes Steve lead out in) I never got the opportunity to go to one, but that's ok because they are always recorded and are on YouTube or Apple's website. Steve knew how to keep people's attention because they didn't know what was going to happen next. He also knew how to give a presentation. That is one feature I really liked about his presentations, they were not boring. He was a natural Presenter.
I would be in school and all I would think about is the presentation that was going on at apple and how I couldn't follow it because the website was blocked. So I would wait till I got home to see what was announced and say I WANT THAT. I would watch the keynote after school and think how cool would it be to be in the auditorium and just to see people's reactions when the products were revealed.
As I wrap up this little letter of appreciation to Steve and his family I just want to say that Steve Never gave up, he was a College dropout and he never gave up. I admire that in him. He also started a multibillion dollar company in a garage. Him and Woz were a great team.
There is one more thing I would like to say to wrap this up. This is a quote that I wrote about Steve:
Live like There's No Tomorrow. I think that Steve Jobs lived by this quote... He was one of those persons who took life that way that it was presented to him. He took one day at a time. He also thought that nothing in life was impossible. He will be missed.
Thank you.
Truly a revolutionary innovator. Technology would not be the same without him. RIP
Not sure if anyone is interested, However in the light of recent events on a blog I run we started a competition to win a copy of: 'Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography' (http://ios-blog.co.uk/iphone-development-competitions/win-a-copy-of-stev...) -
Just thought I would mention it as it appears a lot of people here might enter :)

JMS pools configuration
BTM XA connection factories can be created - like their JDBC counterparts - via some java code or via a BTM-specific tool called the Resource Loader. You are free to choose the method you prefer, there is absolutely no difference between them.
BTM only supports the JMS 1.1 API. Only servers supporting it can be used with BTM. There is currently no way to make BTM work with JMS 1.0.2 API.
|Table of Contents
Using the BTM API
BTM comes bundled with a JMS XA connection pool which is very easy to configure. You basically have to create an instance of bitronix.tm.resource.jms.PoolingConnectionFactory set some properties and you're done.
Here is an example of datasource creation that connects to an ActiveMQ JMS server:
|Code Block
PoolingConnectionFactory myConnectionFactory = new PoolingConnectionFactory (); (1) myConnectionFactory.setClassName("org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQXAConnectionFactory"); (2) myConnectionFactory.setUniqueName("activemq"); (3) myConnectionFactory.setMinPoolSize(1); (4) myConnectionFactory.setMaxPoolSize(5); (5) myConnectionFactory.setAllowLocalTransactions(true); (6) myConnectionFactory.setUser("user"); (7) myConnectionFactory.setPassword("password"); (8) myConnectionFactory.getDriverProperties().setProperty("brokerURL", "tcp://localhost:61616"); (9) Connection c = myConnectionFactory.createConnection(); (10) // create some session then send or receive some message c.close(); (11) myConnectionFactory.close(); (12)
1. The Bitronix
PoolingConnectionFactory is a javabean that implements
2. You have to specify the JMS server's
XAConnectionFactory implementation here.
3. Each connection factory must be assigned a unique name. This is required for distributed crash recovery.
4. This connection factory can contain at least 1 connection. 0 is the default value when unspecified.
5. This connection factory can contain at most 5 connections.
6. You have to set
allowLocalTransactions to true if you want to be able to send or receive messages outside of XA transactions scope.
7,8. When both are set, the pooled connections will be created using the provided user and password instead of without credentials. This works like if you called
ConnectionFactory.createConnection(user, password) instead of
9. The driverProperties is a
java.util.Properties object. You have to add into it a set of property name / property value of the
ActiveMQXAConnectionFactory class. You have to refer to the JMS server's documentation to know what can / has to be set. The ActiveMQXAConnectionFactory javadoc contains this list for the ActiveMQ case. BTM will perform conversion from
String to
boolean or to
int when necessary.
10,11. You can now use the
PoolingConnectionFactory like any other
12. Remember to close the
PoolingConnectionFactory after you're done with it to release the connections.
It might be that the
Eager initialization
Like for JDBC, the connection pool will be initialized during the first call to
createConnection(). It might be desirable to initialize the pool eagerly, like during application startup rather than having to wait for the first request. This can be done by calling
|Code Block
PoolingConnectionFactory myConnectionFactory = new PoolingConnectionFactory (); (1) myConnectionFactory.setClassName("org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQXAConnectionFactory"); (2) myConnectionFactory.setUniqueName("activemq"); (3) myConnectionFactory.setMaxPoolSize(5); (4) myConnectionFactory.setAllowLocalTransactions(true); (5) myConnectionFactory.getDriverProperties().setProperty("brokerURL", "tcp://localhost:61616"); (6) myConnectionFactory.init(); (7) Connection c = myConnectionFactory.createConnection(); (8) // create some session then send or receive some message c.close(); (9) myConnectionFactory.close(); (10)
Now line 7 will initialize the pool and create the 5 connections to the JMS server instead of line 8.
Using the Resource Loader
A connection factory configuration utility is also bundled with BTM. It is convenient to use it rather than create your connection factory in code. Refer to the Resource Loader page for more details.
Here is the equivalent Resource Loader configuration of the previous code example:
|Code Block
resource.cf.className=org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQXAConnectionFactory resource.cf.uniqueName=activemq resource.cf.maxPoolSize=5 resource.cf.allowLocalTransactions=true resource.cf.driverProperties.user=users1 resource.cf.driverProperties.password=users1 resource.cf.driverProperties.URL=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE
You just have to write those properties in a simple text file and tell BTM where to load it by setting the
resourceConfigurationFilename property of the Configuration12 object.
The Resource Loader will always eager initialize the created connection factories.
Now you also have to know how to get the connection factory created by the Resource Loader. There are multiple ways:
- Add
bitronix.tm.resource.bind=trueto your resource loader properties file. The connection factories will then be bound to the default JNDI server using their
uniqueNameas their JNDI name.
- Another way (in case the JNDI context is read only, like in Tomcat) is to bind a bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceObjectFactory object, passing it a javax.naming.Reference containing a javax.naming.StringRefAddr containing the connection factory's
addrTypesomewhere in your JNDI tree. The
bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceObjectFactoryclass will just return the connection factory with the specified
uniqueName. This is explained more in-depth in the Tomcat12 integration page.
- The last way is to call bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceRegistrar.get(String uniqueName). This is the least preferred method as this ties your code to BTM which you probably want to avoid.

Just read an article by the Editor In Chief of Scientific American, John Rennie, titled "15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense." In it, he makes a list of point by point arguments against intelligent design. I include here the link to the entire article and an excerpt showing point number 7. I'm embarrassed for him. Please tell me someone here can come up a more scientific explanation of the origin of life than speculation about "aliens" and "comets." Goodness! I think this is ample proof that atheism has fundamentalists, like any other faith, who make illogical arguments in defense of their beliefs:
7. Evolution cannot explain how life first appeared on earth.
The origin of life remains very much a mystery, but biochemists have learned about how primitive nucleic acids, amino acids and other building blocks of life could have formed and organized themselves into self-replicating, self-sustaining units, laying the foundation for cellular biochemistry. Astrochemical analyses hint that quantities of these compounds might have originated in space and fallen to earth in comets, a scenario that may solve the problem of how those constituents arose under the conditions that prevailed when our planet was young.
Creationists sometimes try to invalidate all of evolution by pointing to science's current inability to explain the origin of life. But even if life on earth turned out to have a nonevolutionary origin (for instance, if aliens introduced the first cells billions of years ago), evolution since then would be robustly confirmed by countless microevolutionary and macroevolutionary studies.

King's vs. Montesano
Where: Stewart Field, Aberdeen
Records: King's 6-0 Cascade Conference, 11-0 overall; Montesano 5-1 Evergreen League, 9-2 overall
Webcast: KSTVonline.com
Scouting report on Montesano
How it got here: Tucker Ibabao rushed for four touchdowns as Montesano defeated Charles Wright 31-21 last week in the first round of the 1A state tournament.
Player to watch: Tucker Ibabao, RB. The running back is the Bulldogs' most explosive runner out of the backfield. He had four touchdowns in last week's game, and also found the endzone in Montesano's 47-0 district playoff win against Castle Rock.
Biggest win: Montesano 70, Rainier 0. This week eight contest was literally Montesano's "biggest win," with the Bulldogs routing Rainier by a season-high 70 points. Key to the game: Last season, King's lost to Montesano in the quarterfinals of the 1A state playoff. In order for history to not repeat itself, the King's explosive offense is going to need to put up quite a few points while the defense needs to contain Tucker Ibabao. If the Knights do this, they should be able to avenge last year's loss.
Pick: King's 35, Montesano 21
