Applegate Gallery and Custom FramingRead MoreExperienced artist and framer Sara Minarik helps to conserve cherished photos and apprized accolades from the quality-diminishing effects of the world with custom frames cradling museum-quality materials. Memento memorializers can submit their souvenirs to Applegate's talented picture-preservers and rest assured that all pop-art posters, beloved sports memorabilia, and original recipes for raisins will be returned in a framed shield of see-through body armor that flatters as much as it protects. Though project rates vary as much as their framed-in contents, a complete 5"x7" frame with acid-free matting and UV-filtering glass usually starts at around $100. Patrons can customize keepsakes by choosing their favorite materials from a selection of more than 1,500 frames and more than 1,200 matting options. All framing services are completed in Applegate's store.101 Church St NWVienna, VA US
Museum FramingRead MoreFor nearly 25 years, we have provided 100% museum quality framing services at fair and affordable prices to museums, libraries, galleries and the public115 S Union StAlexandria, VA US
TR Framing AlexandriaRead MoreWith more than 20 years of experience and a stock of more than 2,000 mouldings to choose from, the framing experts at TR Framing customize artwork for homes, sports jerseys, and 3-D memorabilia. They help guests select the perfect moulding to ensconce the art and cut a mat to add a buffer between the glass and the work. They also enjoy creating displays with box framing for various objects.820 N Fairfax St.Alexandria, VA US
K.H. Art & FramingRead MoreThe artisans behind K.H. Art & Framing understand that the best kind of preservation combines traditional techniques with modern technology. Each day, they draw on more than 20 years of experience as they craft museum-quality frames with 200 moulding options and conservation-grade glass and matting. Inside their photo lab, staffers look to the future, printing passport photos and canvas prints or digitally restoring images before storing them safely on CDs. While framers and technicians preserve memories, curators stay busy filling the studio's gallery with artwork?such as oil paintings, lithographs, and silk-screens?from both local and international artists. They also sell posters that can turn a house into a home or a bathroom stall into a personal workspace.4745 Lee HighwayArlington, VA US
The Framing Studio and Art Plus FrameRead MoreThe Framing Studio and Art Plus Frame carries an assortment of custom framing options, including wood, aluminum, and other materials. Using only acid-free materials, the shop's staff can lend elegance to prints with conservation framing, linen mats, and custom brass and aluminum plaques.

This room measures 364 square feet and comes with one king or two double beds and a sitting area.
The marble bathroom features shower/tub combination, a vanity area with lighted makeup mirror, and a telephone.
This 378-square-foot room has one king bed or two double beds with pillow-top mattresses, feather down comforters and Egyptian cotton linens.

129 East Fremont, Las Vegas, NV 89101
The Golden Nugget with its Strip-style accommodations, shark-filled pool and popular restaurants is a hotel rich on comfort and fun in downtown Las Vegas.
Classic Vegas elegance, upscale but not out of reach, ample choices for everyone
Located in the heart of downtown, the Golden Nugget resembles the kind of property you'd find on the Strip. Now don't get us wrong. Staying here won't be of the same caliber as staying at one of the elite Strip resorts, but by downtown's standards this will feel pretty darn luxurious.
The Golden Nugget opened in 1946 and still nothing seems dated. From the elegant marble lobby to a collection of contemporary restaurants capable of satisfying every craving, this resort offers everything you need in a great location where you can literally step outside and right into the eye-popping sights and rockin' sounds of Fremont Street Experience.
We can say with complete confidence there's no other hotel pool in town like The Tank. Not only does this outdoor complex have a lush setting with two cascading waterfalls, but there's a 200,000-gallon aquarium filled with sharks and a three-story water slide will take you right through the center of it.
The Golden Nugget's buffet is the best in downtown. It's a step up from the competition geographically because it's located on the second floor (where you'll have a great view of the pool if you sit near the windows). Our favorite time to go is on Friday and Saturday nights for the seafood spread, which includes crab legs, fresh shrimp, sushi and lobster mac 'n' cheese.
At 364 square feet, the standard deluxe rooms are the smallest and oldest. If you need an affordable place to crash, they're just fine. If you're interested in additional creature comforts, go for the Gold Tower deluxe rooms. Renovated in 2014, they have more space with foyers and living areas as well as 42-inch flat-screen TVs and Keurig coffee makers (but you'll have to pay for the K-Cups).
For a VIP-level experience, book a room in the Rush Tower. Opened in 2009, the accommodations here are as good as gold with soaking tubs, premium linens, leather sofas, private check-in and turndown service.
If noise is an issue and you're not in Vegas to party, request a room on the hotel's south side -- in other words, not facing Fremont Street Experience, where there's a stage and music plays until the wee hours.
There are two valets at the Golden Nugget. If you're staying in the main hotel, use the valet off Casino Center Boulevard. If you're staying in the Rush Tower, head to the one on Carson Avenue near First Street. Valet parking is free to everyone but may be restricted to hotel guests on weekends, holidays and special events.
The self-parking garage is located off First Street near Bridger Avenue. It's complimentary to hotel guests. Anyone patronizing the Golden Nugget can also park there and get three hours free with validation -- otherwise you'll have to pay an hourly rate.
A Gold to Go ATM (yes, you've read that correctly) is one of the hotel's unusual attractions. Simply insert your debit or credit card. Instead of cash it dispenses small 24-carat gold bars at market value prices.
Check out the biggest gold nugget in existence at the Golden Nugget. You'll discover the 61-pound Hand of Faith just off the casino floor near the room elevators. It was discovered in Australia in 1980 and also has the honor of being the biggest nugget ever found with a metal detector.
If aquariums are your thing, enjoy a meal or just a cocktail in the Chart House seafood restaurant. The dining room and bar wrap around a 75,000-gallon aquarium filled with more than 1,000 colorful fish, including a moray eel that looks like a scary sea serpent. Trust us, you won't be able to take your eyes off it (and in the interest of self-preservation, you shouldn't).
One more thing we can't forget: The Golden Nugget has a Starbucks fronting Fremont Street with an outdoor patio. Get your caffeine fix here 24 hours a day. There's a second location of Starbucks inside the Carson Tower; however, this one isn't open around the clock.

NORWALK, Conn. ‒ A man reported being beat up and robbed by three men on Ely Avenue in Norwalk Wednesday night, police said.
The man told police he was walking on a path that connects Ely Avenue with Lexington Avenue around 10:15 p.m. when he was approached by three men wearing black masks, black clothing and gloves. According to the man's account, the three didn't say anything as they threw him to the ground and started kicking him. They then took his backpack, which contained notebooks and about $20 in change, and ran off towards Martin Luther King Drive.
Police said the man complained about injuries to his cheek and rib cage, and was taken to Norwalk Hospital for evaluation. The matter is still under investigation, police said.

DALLAS - The Woodall Rodgers Deck Park, which is currently under construction, will not just be a new attraction in downtown Dallas; it will also serve as a political trophy for the President Barack Obama administration and Democrats in Congress.
The park is the largest project in Texas receiving stimulus funds. Monday, the president's transportation secretary, Republican Ray LaHood, made a visit to Dallas to remind voters just that.
Like any big highway project, the Woodall Rogers Deck Park construction has drawn gawks from drivers and led to delays from lane closures. But, it has stimulated more than stares and traffic.
It's impossible to overstate the positive impact that stimulus funds have had on this project, said Linda Owen, with the Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation.
After the deck park won $16.7 million in stimulus money, it became an example of why the Obama administration and congressional Democrats believe the $700-billion stimulus plan was necessary. The project's estimated to create 1,000 immediate jobs.
In the high-profile race for the Republican nomination for governor, Gov. Rick Perry and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison have both criticized the plan as too much spending.
But, Obama's Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, a former Republican congressman from Illinois, said the spending is worth it. He praised Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, the only member of the North Texas congressional delegation who voted for the stimulus.
Without that vote, we would not be standing here today and these fellas that are working out here in these yellow jackets would not be working, he said.
Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert, who is toying with the idea of running in a special Senate election as a Republican, said in August he thought the stimulus money was flowing too slowly. But, there were no comments of the such Monday.
And we're thankful Mr. Secretary for all the support that we've received at the federal level, he said.
When finished in 2012, the deck park, which is also partially being built with private, city and state money, will connect downtown with uptown and points beyond.

Constructed on a trailer bed and parked in Snohomish, Washington, the house is more than enough space for them, the couple says. And one advantage of an abode on wheels is that you can always move, says Malissa.

Another Inca god
was Inti's sister and wife Mama-Quilla, the Moon goddess. Temples were built to her all over the empire and the walls of her shrine were covered with sheets of silver.
The Incas believed that the stars were heavenly guardians and that every kind of animal and bird had its own star or constellation. Llama herders would pray to the llama constellation, which we know as Lira. Our constellation, the Pleiades, was "Collca" to the Incas, which means storehouse. This constellation was responsible for the preservation of seed and was especially honored.
The Incas also worshipped holy or strange places and things, called huacas. They might be rocks, mountains, rivers, and unusually-shaped trees that the Incas thought had special powers. Offerings were made to huacas to ask for their help. The most important huacas were offered
children and llamas were killed and buried beside them.
Respect for ancestors was another important part of the Inca religion. The bodies of the dead were often dried and preserved as
and either buried with some of their belongings or kept in the homes of their descendants and given regular offerings of food and drink.

Matt Vincent is a champion in the Highland Games. I'm not terribly familiar with the Highland Games other than attending a few and competing in one whilst I was completing my concentration in university. If you ever go to a Highland Games festival wear earplugs. The bagpipes sound great…for the first 15 minutes. Then you just want to punch the air bladder and blame them for Ko"backwards R"N. Anyway, Matt has written a number of books about training for the Highland Games and travels the world competing. He began video taping his travels and the people he meets – and has started a series called "The Drifta Lifta". Yep, you read that right. The name seems to imply unbrushed teeth and dumpster diving for expired cuisine, but it is quite the opposite. The first episode of the series features a stop in San Francisco (which Jack Donaghy calls "'People's Gay-public of Drugifornia".) He has a stop into a Crossfit facility to get his chi alingned and remind him to lift heavy weights. Also includes his performance in a Highland Games and some good entertaining banter.
This is some good stuff. Check it out and have a good laugh. Watch close enough and you might learn something as well.

The horrific, deadly and gruesome shooting of 26 people, 20 of them children, at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, is indeed one of the worst incidents in American history of mass killings. It has sent shock waves and tremors across the world. It is certainly time for the U.S. to tighten gun control laws and, if necessary, ban people from carrying guns.
C.A.C. Murugappan,
The blood-curdling incident has once again exposed the superpower's underbelly and sharply brought into focus its sordid gun culture that is increasingly claiming an alarming number of innocent lives. It is deplorable that despite the recent spate of wanton mass killings — at the Oregon mall, a Sikh gurdwara in Wisconsin and a cinema in Colarado — and the appalling frequency with which they have occurred, the Obama administration has done precious little to curb the growing trend of trigger-happy gunmen targeting innocent people. Thanks to the U.S. economic interests, even mentally deranged people seem to have free access to arms and ammunition.
Nalini Vijayaraghavan,
It is difficult to figure out what is wrong in the U.S. Are youngsters going astray due to a lack of love in the family? Unless parents become role models for their children, such incidents will continue to occur. Lack of love will instil hatred in youngsters. Inculcating values is as important as fighting economic recession.
Sajith Peter,
The senseless killing of the school children has exposed several fault lines in American society. The recurrence of such tragedies has not made the case for gun control any stronger because the issue is seen as a threat to individual freedom, not as a matter of crime and violence. A wealthy nation is not necessarily the happiest. The U.S. is paying a heavy price for the breakdown of family ties. Single-parent poor families often become breeding grounds for social malcontents.
V.N. Mukundarajan
The mental aberration of the gunman that led to the tragedy is reflective of a trend that needs to be addressed on a war-footing. We in India should guard against such cruel instincts which are on the increase.
D.K. Kaimal,
The U.S. has been determining the sale of guns to other countries but is unable to control the gun culture on its soil. It is strange that in a country where one needs to take permission from authorities to use fireworks, there is very little restriction on using firearms. It is time that the U.S. passed a suitable law to bring gun culture under control for the sake of its own citizens.
J. Sethuraman,
I am shocked, saddened and angry at the mass shooting in Newtown, just 25 miles from my home. This is not the time to blame anyone but it is certainly time to see how such an incident can be prevented again. The gunman was no doubt insane but it is our gun control laws that are more insane. How else can one explain people getting automatic weapons without proper checks? Every country has crazy people but no other country makes it easy to arm them with automatic weapons.
After every mass shooting, we hear some sections say, "it is not the guns but the people; guns don't kill, people do." To which I say people cannot kill in masses unless you provide them with an automatic gun with 100+ rounds. More guns do not mean more safety; statistics show it is the opposite. As for the second amendment (which protects an individual's right to possess a firearm and use it for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defence within the home), it was created during the 18th century to legalise the right to have weapons, as the British had banned it to prevent the settlers from having an army (and weapons) to fight them. The gun lobby and politicians who support the amendment have changed the interpretation to sound as if having a gun makes you a true American because it is about your freedom.
Ramanuja Iyer,
The death of 26 innocent persons in Connecticut exposes the vulnerability of living in America. Shooting incidents have become common. Every time a tragedy strikes, the media spends hours analysing the motives of the gunman, the assault weapons used in the crime, and the evidence to corroborate it. The gruesome dissection is done to learn from the insight the tragedy has to offer in the hope that its recurrence can be prevented. But it completely misses the acknowledgment that the U.S., like any other country, has a share of madmen and each one has a different motive to slaughter innocent lives. Hence, the sooner the nation musters the political will to ban guns, the better off it would be in making communities safer.
And every time a heinous crime like the Newtown incident happens, one wonders whether it will be the watershed moment for the nation to move towards enacting tougher laws.
Varad Seshadri,
The American gun culture is slowly creeping into India. We have seen reports of students carrying firearms to schools to settle scores with their rivals. Unless the Obama administration takes a serious note of the trend and imposes restrictions, the U.S. will witness more of the Connecticut-type incidents.
Worse, the trend will be copied by other countries, particularly those where the American culture is very popular.
H. Narayanan,

AMERICA/CUBA - Pioneers of the economy in the Archdiocese of Santiago de Cuba
Santiago de Cuba (Agenzia Fides) – On March 5, 2013 the "Course for small business entrepreneurs" starts in the parish of "St. Therese of the Child Jesus" of the Archdiocese of Santiago de Cuba, promoted and directed by the group "Service of Family Promotion "(SPF), of the department of the Society of Jesus. The goal is the development of local human culture through training and business ethics.
A note sent to Fides Agency by the Episcopal Conference of Cuba reports that the project started in 2006 thanks to the initiative of the parish priest of the church of the Sagrada Familia, Father Mariano Ibar Albiñana Ibar and Mr. Carlos Fernández Hernández, who together started a service of economic solidarity and support through a system of micro-loans for people with limited resources. The project was then extended in 2008 thanks to a group of men and women who work as teachers and project examiners of integral development through conferences, project evaluations and mini solidarity loans, to enable families in need to start a business in order to improve the quality of life.
The experiences and results obtained in the course of five years by the SPF has attracted the attention of other parishes of the Jesuits in Cienfuegos and Havana. (CE) (Agenzia Fides 13/02/2013)

Shah Rukh Khan's 'Happy New Year' trailer has garnered a lukewarm response on YouTube.
It has been four days since the trailer of Shah Rukh Khan starrer-'Happy New Year'-has been released but there's not much buzz amoung the audiences.
The trailer of the film has garnered over 2 million hits on YouTube. Being one of SRK's most awaited film the trailer's views on YouTube are disappointing. So why is it not picking up?
The trailer of the film was released with much fanfare and a la SRK style, a lot of curiosity was generated before the launch. Did it create too high expectations and failed to meet them?
If compared, the 1.5 minute teaser of 'Bang Bang' managed to grab hold of much more hits than the official trailer of multi-starrer 'Happy New Year'.
The film is one of the most anticipated movies of Shah Rukh and his only one this year. Guess sending the trailer personally to fans, and promoting it on WhatsApp has taken its toll on the film, which is failing to generate as many hits as it normally would have.

Prescription Frames Coming To Google Glass
Enid Burns for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
Google is updating its Glass offering with a range of styles, and the ability to get Glass with Prescription lenses. The new styles include four new Glass frames in the Titanium line.
Google posted on its Google Glass page Tuesday that it had new styles, and addressed the prescription lenses issue for Glass. "So we want you to be the first to know that the Titanium Collection is here, with a handful of new styles for Glass so you can make it your own," the post said.
The Titanium Collection includes four feather-light titanium frames. Styles can be seen on the Google Glass page. Prescription frames include Split, Thin, Bold and Curve. There are also three styles available in sunglasses for outdoors use including the Edge, Classic and Active. The latter is designed for more active users and can be taken into sports settings such as cycling, skiing or mountain climbing.
The Titanium Collection is available for $225 in addition to the current $1500 price tag, USA Today reports. Users can add tinted lenses for another $150.
The frames come in up to five colors and a range of shades, CNET reports, making a possible 40 combinations of colors, frames and shades, including the original frame and shade.
Google advises that some vision insurance plans will help cover the cost of the new prescription frames. Google names VSP as one such vision insurance plan that will support Glass. USA Today reports that VSP has partnered with Google to provide coverage, and is also training optometrists on how to put prescriptions in the new frames. Trained optometrists, at least at first, will be limited to professionals in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York — where Google Glass is more common.
"Our goal is to have 6,000 doctors trained by the end of the year, throughout the country. We have 200 trained so far," Steve Lee, product director for Glass, told USA Today.
Glass also presents new fitting issues for the eye care industry.
Dr. Matthew Alpert, an optometrist who serves on VSP's board of directors and is the company's chairman of optometric innovations, also works as the insurer's liaison with Google.
He told USA Today, "We need to make sure that Glass is fitted properly, and that the lenses are fabricated properly. A home run for me would be a positive patient experience."
Glass remains available only to a select number of users during Google's "beta" period. Glass is available to Explorers — which includes developers, their friends and people Google invites to join the program. Anyone can also apply on the Google Glass site. Industry insiders expect that Google Glass will become more widely available later this year, according to USA Today.
"People want lots of preferences for how their eyewear looks, from loud to subtle," said Lee in comments to USA Today. "This is where we are headed. You can start to see how the core design of Glass can accommodate lots of different styles."
Prescription lenses are the most-requested improvement, CNET reports. Google based the styles on existing popular trends in the eye care industry to appeal to a broader audience, and make the frames less geeky.
"We think they'll accommodate most people's tastes. Anybody who is familiar with the process of getting [an eyeglasses] prescription will be familiar with how you get prescription Glass," Lee said to CNET.

Profitable reading.
Larry Bossidy is known as the man behind one of the largest business mergers in history, that of Honeywell and AlliedSignal. But what Bossidy, who was chairman of the merged company, has to share in Execution: The Discipline of Getting Things Done, which came out last year, may surprise you. That's because Execution isn't about balance sheets or market timing or quality systems: it's a treatise on how to manage people.
Yeah, that's right. People. Even more revealing is what the authors (coauthor Ram Charan has taught business at Harvard and Northwestern) say are the three little actions that execution comes down to: Developing a system and having the discipline to adhere to it, hiring the right people for the system, and developing a market-based strategy in which all executives are active participants in minute operational details.
Unlike Execution, which cites several case studies, another recent book, Moneyball, is an account of the running of a single company, the Oakland Athletics baseball team, through the eyes of its general manager, Billy Beane. (What other industry does the subtitle--"The Art of Winning an Unfair Game"--remind us of?) For the uninitiated, Beane has overcome an anemic budget and a small local market to compete successfully at the highest level of the sport. Beane recognized that, given his limited resources, he couldn't compete with the big market teams like New York. So he changed the rules. He didn't overspend on players who could only marginally contribute. And he concentrated on picking young (read: cheap) talent using a rating system that values actual performance data over human perception, and in doing so reinvented the way many teams evaluate players.
Beane relates his management philosophy to actuarial science: "Predictability, predictability, predictability. What's the path to least risk? What's the greater chance of getting some return on this asset? We stay disciplined on that--and over time, with an accumulation of those decisions, you end up with something successful." On Beane's watch, the Oakland franchise has been among the elite, with more wins than all but three franchises over the past four years and at a cost-per-win of less than half that of the next "most efficient" team ranked in the top 10.
The parallels and lessons of these books for PCD&M readers are many. Among them: 1) Have a plan that is tailored to the market realities (in our case, that means rampant cyclicality and occasional recessions); 2) leaders must know how the company works (that doesn't mean they should operate the plating bath, but they had better know how it runs and why it's important); 3) proper coaching is critical to employee success; 4) discipline reduces risk; 5) sometimes you have to reinvent the "rules"; and finally, forget what the factory looks like--there's nothing prettier than a clean balance sheet.
Although they qualify as captains of industry, neither Bossidy nor Beane is known for their politicking or "I have a dream" type speeches. Rather, they have focused on the oft-mundane, nitty-gritty inner workings of their companies. And although they at times have pulled off jaw-dropping deals, their success is rooted in the fact that they don't always try to hit the home run. In one Bossidy speech I heard, he noted that AlliedSignal's goal was to grow 8% a year, every year. Nothing sexy about that, bur who wouldn't take it now?
This month's cover story, our annual NTI 100, lists the largest PCB firms in the world. What the list can't show, of course, is which is the best. Rest assured, the winners in the PCB game are determined not by how much money they bring in but by how much profit they make, a benchmark Bossidy and Beane are certain to value highly.

Phonnix Voicemail Beta
10,000 - 50,000 downloads
- Smart use of network funcioning
- Wide array of options
- Unintuitive settings
+ By Control Space
"Redirect calls and SMSs to wherever, whenever."
Reviewed by Peter Warrior / Feb 28, 2014
An app to divert incoming communications when needed
There are sometimes when mobile devices play dirty tricks on us and what it had to be something easy becomes something infinitely more complicated because of a rebel device who's doing its best to run out of battery or avoid signal detection. Fortunately, this kind of misbehavior can be predicted and you can act accordingly beforehand.
Phonnix tries to solve many of those usual problems caused by the bad habit that communication devices have to leave you incommunicated. First off, you can activate the option to redirect calls to a second phone of yours or to any computer with the tie-in add-on.
Likewise, SMS can be resent to your email, Evernote or even to your Facebook account (landing on the private message inbox)
Lastly, the app includes some additional features to remotely control your device.
On the other hand, it might be that this app isn't suited for everyone, because it requires to deploy a device on host mode (or install the plug-in on your computer) while the other, the 'slave' one must activate the "client" mode. Both modes are activated through the app, but it would be handy you practice first just in case you don't face an emergency and have to set it up for the first time.
Regarding this, perhaps the option is that which allows to automatically initiate the app when battery is about to expire, so henceforth all calls and SMSs are redirected to wherever you previously specified.
Anyway, a extremely useful app whose only flaw is its unintuitive mechanics and the need to toy with it for a brief while before actually trusting it important stuff.
Recommended for people really living on the fly, or anyone who feels that it can be handy to have always ready a B plan.
Phonnix Voicemail does exactly that so next time you forget your mobile at home or if you're almost out of battery you can still answer your calls!
Install Phonnix Voicemail on your smartphone in Host Mode and run in Client Mode on your secondary Android device. You can also access your phone and answer your calls on your desktop browser
First you need to activate conditional call forwarding to forward your missed calls to Phonnix*
What can you do with Phonnix?
- Deep voicemail integration with Android OS
- Answer calls on another Browser or another device running Phonnix
- Receive SMS and Call Notifications on another Android smartphone or tablet (Client Mode)
- Receive SMS and Call Notifications on Facebook
- Download files from device remotely
- List and kill applications
- Manage devices that connect to Host
- Synchronize SMS with Evernote
- Email notifications
* Service might not be available in your country
- Internet connection (3G or Wifi)
- Android smartphone running in Host Mode
- Android smartphone or tablet running in Client Mode or desktop browser
- A Google account (Facebook account optional)
NOTE: Call Forwarding might not be available depending on operator or plan, sometimes pre-paid plans don't have call forwarding available or you might have to enable call forwarding before you can divert your call from your phone. By default Phonnix uses GSM call forwarding codes to divert calls. For US carriers and some other countries you might have to change your settings. Charges may apply!
Phonnix requires a fairly large amount of permissions to the user, and this is why the application needs it:
CALL_PHONE - Access Call Forwarding functionality
C2D_MESSAGE - Google Cloud Messaging
INTERNET - Full Internet Access to communicate to servers
GET_ACCOUNTS - Access Google accounts
MANAGE_ACCOUNTS - Create Google account if necessary
USE_CREDENTIALS - Use Google account credentials to identify user

CHANGE_WIFI_STATE - Change current wifi state (on/off)
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE - Access current mobile network state (on/off)
CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE - Change current mobile network state (on/off)
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - Start application after reboot (configurable)
VIBRATE - Vibrate on incoming calls
RECORD_AUDIO - necessary to make calls
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS - necessary to make calls
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Temporary storage for downloaded files
KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES - Stop applications in background
ADD_VOICEMAIL - Add deep voicemail integration
BILLING - In-app purchases
We're still in BETA so please be patient and share with us your hurdles so that together we can make Phonnix a better application.
- Improved audio connection with Automated Low Latency Routing Availability
- Migration to new backend

This app is one of the few that claim to set up diverts, to actually succeed in doing so. It can forward SMS to email, which isn't ideal (I would prefer to have texts sent to the remote phone with just the sender number given SMS length limits), but better than nothing. The app however ignores the "Use GPS" setting, and the GPS turns on very frequently, resulting in 60+% of battery use being caus

On Dec. 19 between 6 a.m. – 7:30 p.m., unknown suspect(s) broke the frame to a rear door of a garage in the 800 block of Stavors Road in Waldorf. Entry was not made inside the garage and at this point, nothing was reported stolen. Officer N. Garner is investigating.
On Dec. 19 at 12:45 p.m., officers responded to the 6100 block of Bivens Place in La Plata after a man reported finding a power washer that belonged to him; the washer had been stolen from his house during a burglary. Officers R. Snyder and J. Campbell canvassed the rest of the area and discovered a blue scooter in the woods. A check of the scooter's serial number revealed the scooter had been reported stolen as well. The officers tracked down the owners of the scooter and returned the property to them. The investigation is on-going.
On Dec. 18 between 7:05 a.m. – 5:30 p.m., unknown suspect(s) broke into a house in the 11000 block of Commanders Lane in White Plains and stole a computer, jewelry and other valuables. Officers canvassed the area and located a few witnesses who reported seeing two juveniles riding their bikes earlier that day in the area where the burglary occurred. Officers processed the scene for evidence. PFC K. Syvertsen is investigating.
On Dec. 18 between 11:15 a.m. – 1 p.m., unknown suspects broke into a house in the 6100 block of Starview Place in La Plata and stole two shotguns and a handgun.

The ill effects created by the two-week pullout by Fox networks on Cablevision's systems led to a "minuscule" amount of customer losses for the cable provider, according to Sanford Bernstein analyst Craig Moffett. He estimates the New York-based company lost 0.3% of its subscriber base during the impasse.

Riglos Gran Malbec 2010
Malbec from Argentina, South America
Winemaker's Notes
On the palate, red berry and dark stone fruit impressions dominate, set in a texture of silky, supple tannins and sweet, luscious fruit lifted by a fine, measured acidity. The finish is long and succulent, ending on a ripe, plush note that invites another glass.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "While Argentine Malbecs aren't textbook cellaring wines, this one has enough spirit, tannin and structure to benefit from a few years on its side. Now, it's lush on the nose, with ripe berry, pencil eraser, vanilla and marzipan aromas. The palate is chewy but well built, with dense blackberry, cassis, coconut and chocolate flavors. On the finish, things only intensify. Will be at its best around 2015–2016. Paul Hobbs Wines. Cellar Selection "
Riglos Winery
Dario and Fabian have been friends since childhood, but only recently found out that their grandparents had grown up in the same small town of Riglos, Argentina. With the establishment of the Riglos brand, the pioneering spirit of two immigrant families, from Germany and Ireland respectively, is strengthened in partnership and commemorated in name. Sourced exclusively from their estate vineyard in the Valle de Uco region of Mendoza, the portfolio is comprised of three wines: a malbec, a cabernet sauvignon and a red blend, all styled to strike a balance between vivid varietal expression and elegant structure.

About Argentina(ahr-jen-TEE-nah)
Notable FactsUnlike its Chilean neighbor, Argentina's vineyards are spread out around the country. The best known region is Mendoza, almost parallel to Santiago to the west. Mendoza contains the sub-regions of Maipu (pronounced MY-pu) and San Rafael. Grape-wise, the most important white is Chardonnay, making wine similar to California's style on the variety. Another fun white grape to try is Torrontes. Almost only grown in Argentina, Torrontes makes wines that are crisp, aromatic and easy-drinking. Some of the best versions of this wine come from the northern region of Salta, with very high altitude vineyards. As for the reds, Cabernet Sauvignon is the main grape for many wines leaving the country, but Malbec, the grape Argentinians like to call their own, makes very distinctive wines that are structured, dense and velvety. Many more varieties happily grow in the country, but for export, and consistent quality, these are the primary grapes.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Can't blame you Thomas, I even get exited when I see a Swede here and as you know I am a Dane.
I think those prices are good if these cameras are in good condition and don't need a service.
One thing to consider is what kind of lenses you prefer to use, I think the M4 is a little better if you will be using both wide angles and short tele lenses.

Re: Official Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising Thread
There's a demo out for this game on Steam now, tried it out during lunch. It's pretty neat! Performance was really good considering I was running on an 8800GT. Giving orders to squad mates was a real pain though, hate having to go through that whole menu that can only be navigated with the keyboard (AFAIK). I wish it were more like GRAW on PC where you could scroll through your team members with mouse wheel and middle mouse click to give orders.
Also got a bit annoyed when I was trying to issue a suppressive fire order to my M249 SAW gunner. The target was under 300 meters away yet he wouldn't fire; I give the order to one of my riflemen and he opens fire right away. It's like the SAW gunner only fires when under a certain range, which sucks considering that a SAW is effective at suppression out to like 1000 meters...
Game definitely seems like it could be fun in coop. With L4D2 out though, for me that niche has been filled for now.

They staged massive, colorful rallies and enacted religious dramas, working with young women in Holland, England, and Germany.
In May 1940, two Dutch Grail women, Lydwine van Kersbergen (1904-1998) and Joan Overboss (1910-1969), came to the United States. They began their work as The Grail at Doddridge Farm, a summer camp in Libertyville, Illinois. In 1944, The Grail, which had grown to sixteen women, moved to a farm in Loveland, Ohio (near Cincinnati). This farm is now Grailville.

Michael Vick was born in Virginia and has an estimated net worth of $16 million dollars. A quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, Michael Vick also played for the Atlanta Falcons for five years. A four time Pro-Bowl selection, his reputation was tarnished when his involvement in an illegal dog-fighting ring came to light. He served 2 years in jail and returned to the NFL in late 2009. On Monday August 28th 2011, Michael Vick and signed a 6 year $100 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. This new contract is includes $40 million in guaranteed cash and works out to an annual salary of $16.5 million. Vick is now the third athlete, joining Derek Jeter and Shaquille O'Neal, in the history of professional sports to sign more than one $100 million+ contract. Vick's original $130 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons was negated after his legal troubles. No matter what you think of Michael Vick, you have to admit he has performed a very impressive turnaround in terms of his image and playing. From a bankrupt convicted felon who no NFL team would touch with a 10 foot pole, to a $100 million contract. On October 2nd, 2012, court documents revealed that Vick had spent 95% of his 2008-2012 income, roughly $30 million, paying taxes, creditors, lawyers and accountants.

Once we read a few and were able to find a schematic that was close to our model number on your website we realized we had a dual water valve where one solenoid-operated switch could stop working(No ICE but water) we located the dual valve on the interior back of the fridge and plugged the part number into your website that showed us the replacement part number. It was pretty much unplug and replace. Thank-You! A+++++++++

At a time when medical expenses keep rising, here's some respite for south Mumbaikars from the lower economic strata.
In certain pockets of South Mumbai, Nita Ambani's Reliance Foundation, a philanthropic initiative of Reliance Industries (RIL), has set up primary care clinics to provide preventive and primary healthcare services at a subsidised rate to the vulnerable sections of the society.
Started in December 2012, Reliance Foundation's health outreach programme is growing big. Initially, it connected most parts of South Mumbai through its mobile vans, also known as mobile medical units (MMUs). The three MMUs at present cover about three-to-four areas in a month with high concentration of low-income population.
Covering from Wadala to Worli, the idea was to provide a primary healthcare access to areas that are within 3-5 km radius of Mukesh Ambani's soon-to-be-opened Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital. The Foundation has also set up three static medical units (SMUs) covering areas near Grant Road, Chira Bazaar and Girgaum to ensure a more permanent foothold in the healthcare segment.
According to a Reliance Foundation official, who did not wish to be identified, the preventive and primary healthcare project was started with an objective to provide "health for all", especially to the marginalised communities.
"The project started with three MMUs with experienced staff providing healthcare at doorsteps of community. Subsequently, three SMUs were established. The idea was to establish an outreach for the HN Hospital in its vicinity. Usually, an outreach programme starts after the main hospital has been set up, but we took the other way round in order to understand the health needs of the communities," said the official.
The model has served its objective so far. Around one lakh families, in the vicinity of HN Hospital, have enrolled under this programme. Each family receives a health card that covers the member of the family for an easy access to primary healthcare at any of these SMUs or MMUs. Around 60,000 consultations have taken place in this short period. The consultations and medicines are completely free of cost at MMU while at SMUs the poor get free services.
The foundation is also organising preventive health check-up camps at regular intervals for specialised health related issues, starting from diabetes, cholesterol, and bone mineral density, etc.
"The model is not just committed to low income group and we will treat anybody who will come to us. However, to ensure that those who actually in need are benefited the most out of this model, we created four categories depending on the income level. Those who can afford will pay for the services offered," the official quoted above said, adding nearly 99.5% patients received consultations for free-of-cost or at very subsidised rates.
Under the scheme, a person with an annual income of Rs 50,000 or less (requires a ration card for proof, though) can avail the primary health services for free, while for someone who's annual income is less than Rs 1 lakh can get free consultations and 25% reduction on cost of medicines. However, for a patient with an income over Rs 2 lakh per annum, services are all chargeable.
"The model is being built up to bring down the incidences of chronic disease turning into acute episodes, requiring longer-term hospitalisation. The clinics and MMUs currently employ 12 doctors, 12 nurses and 12 social workers. Based on referrals, the social workers create awareness through door-to-door visits," said the official.
The foundation is mulling a plan to add a few more SMUs as well as polyclinics to meet the healthcare need and growing demand of the communities. In the next six months, it plans to open 2-3 more SMUs and a polyclinic within the vicinity. According to persons familiar with the development, two more SMUs are likely to come up in areas near Bhuleshwar, CP Tank and Kumbharwada.
"By the end of 2014-15, we hope to have a total of 15 SMUs across South Mumbai. Though at present, we are keeping within the radius of 3-5 km of HN Hospital, we may have to go beyond that in the future.
However, the only challenge for us is to get the right place with proper hygiene and water supply, which is absolutely essential for providing quality healthcare," said one of the officials.
The initiative has also been taken to the Rudraprayag district of Uttarakhand through an MMU, as part of a relief programme of the Foundation, to help out last year's flood victims in the worst-affected areas of the state.
