Canada Day 4: Fundy National Park, NB to Alma, NB (21 miles)
Scrambled eggs & home fries in Chignecto North campground
Our first morning waking up in Canada! I made an extra baked potato last night and mashed that into delicious home fries this morning along with scrambled eggs. Man, Canada is cold.
Our goal today was to ride into the town Alma, which appeared to be the center of the universe according to the signs along the roadside riding toward the park. Pizza! screamed one. Lobster! screamed another. I was looking forward to a stroll through town and my first glimpse of the famous Fundy bay.
I really dont know what I was expecting. I grew up in a small town, but Alma, sheesh, its a
small town. It does have a post office which is more than my hometown can claim. We gassed up and went into the attached shop to pick up some food to cook up for dinner.
It was also a liquor store and they actually had Strongbow cider! And Bounty bars! Sign me up, Canada, Im ready to never leave. As we are finishing checking out, having had a nice chat with the woman behind the counter, a guy comes in and starts grabbing the owners daughter (who appears to be a teenager or maybe in her early twenties). The girl, dressed all in black a la depressed goth, starts screaming and the guy responds by screaming back. At the very first, we thought they were playing around, but then the mom starts screaming and shoves the daughter toward the bathroom because it has a locked door.
Alma, New Brunswick, Canada
Were both dressed in full gear, but I still go to stand behind one of the aisle displays and push my boyfriend out in front of me. Like what is he going to do? I figure, well, its Canada, they dont have guns here. The girl finally makes it into the bathroom and the mom pushes the guy out of the shop door and locks it. Then she remembers that we are still in the shop. She looks over and I nod, and she unlocks the door so we can leave. I avert my eyes because, well, it has to be a bit embarrassing, but we all have our troubles. I just hope the girl gets her act together and gets rid of the guy.
It has started to rain, just a little bit, a little mist, so we walked down to the bakery which supposedly sells the best sticky buns in all of New Brunswick. The woman behind the counter had on a hair net and drawn on make-up, as if she spent too much time trying to emulate Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra. It was classic 1960′s. Im starting to really love little Alma.
The famous Fundy Bay tide
We sat on a bench outside of the shop and scarfed down the buns. Mmmmm. Were walked the town twice now, and were ready to head back into the national park for some hiking. I had seen a short trail that leads to a waterfall on one of the hiking maps.
View down the main street in Alma, New Brunswick, Canada
We head back into the Fundy National Park and take the Laverty Auto Trail, which is a nicely groomed, gravel road to hike to Laverty Falls. It was grey and misty out, but we didnt know what the weather forecast was. We parked the bikes and left our helmets attached to the bikes (along with that evenings dinner and drinks) before heading into the woods.
Laverty Auto Road, Fundy National Park
The hike was listed as a couple of kilometers to the falls. We were about 10 to 15 minutes into the walk and it started to rain, just a light drizzle. Nothing to turn us back. We kept walking. And walking. The rain got heavier. The trail turned into a muddy track for the rain to stream down. We kept walking. I may not know what a kilometer is, but there is no way it was only 2.4 kms to the falls. We must have walked 40 minute and still no falls. But we were so wet, drenched, that we continued, begrudgingly, trudging toward the falls.
Laverty Falls, Fundy National Park
We finally got to the falls, but we were so wet, and so cold, and the rocks were so slippy, that we took a look, said, Ohhhhhh and then turned around. We hiked the muddy route back out to the parking lot. My helmet was soaked. His helmet was soaked. My jacket and pants and boots were soaked. And so were his. Because it was hot hiking, we didnt have everything zipped up tightly.
At this point we just wanted to get back to the campsite and get into the little house thing that campgrounds in Canada have.
One picture = a thousand words
We get back to the campsite and the boyfriend decides he wants to do the laundry so he can dry stuff. I bring all my wet gear into the communal building. A couple have built a fire in the stove and its toasty warm. I stretch my stuff all over the place, asking if its ok with the fire couple and the family with the most beautiful children I have ever seen. Everything says its fine. I think they feel sorry for us.
I join the boyfriend in the laundry room and theres another guy in there. Men who do their own laundry gotta love Canada! Turns out he just bought a KLR650 so he was excited that we were moto-camping. The lint filter on the dryer was clean. There are so many wonderful things about this country.
I rode out and picked up some more firewood as the rain subsided as it grew darker. I left all my gear in the communal room overnight so it would dry out for tomorrows ride out of New Brunswick and into Nova Scotia.

Yes, people cheat.
Make cheating a capital offense. It would raise the cost of hiring cheaters.
Machines can only count votes, only people can make a vote count.
What's the chain of custody once I make my choice. Tough question.
Right now government pretends to own the fruits of our labors and we "vote" for men who support our taxation.
Maybe we should put the Federal Government on the PBS plan. If I approve of their programming and policies, I can sent a donation or make a gift to the the government. [Gold and silver Coin only please, it's the Government's law.]
The job of Congress is to create and keep funded a government constrained by the Constitution. Ultimately, We the people would vote our support with our coined Money.
I bet they won't lose our votes then!
Donations by district would be transparent, as well the monthly spending by the Congress, the Executive and the Judiciary.
A "Cash and Carry" government with only the taxation allowed before the 16th Amendment.
Then I might be motivated to get a job, when I don't have to fund this government's atrocities.
Just thinking out loud. Ever since the Helping America Vote Act of 2002 was passed (ominous title). Voting was controlled by a monopoly power, the EAC. Politicians themselves have no motivation to change the Voting systems that elected them, and precincts are not under the central authority of the EAC.
We need to strike at the root, and contest the voting process at the precinct level, moving up the chain as needed. Make voting systems a market process, or roll your own, by precinct.
We have marked paper ballots read by a die-bold scanner. I don't know if the votes are hand counted or not, unless a challenge is made.
Free includes debt-free!

Good for pulling
posted 6 years ago
This is a great collar. It's durable, guaranteed against chewing or breaking, and very pretty. It has an effect on her with her 2ft. walking lead and a strict, steady hand. However, I have a pit bull and I'll need a prong collar sooner than later. Lupine is a fantastic company who treats their customers very well.
Pros: love the style, keeps her from squirming out of it
Cons: not enough for training

Conklin or Markkanen? For Oilers, it's all mental
Updated: June 6, 2006, 7:49 PM ETBy Scott Burnside | ESPN.com
RALEIGH, N.C. -- For almost two months, Ty Conklin and Jussi Markkanen have been studiously, almost religiously, ignored by the media pack covering the NHL playoffs.
While large scrums of reporters, photographers and camera operators formed around starting netminder Dwayne Roloson and the rest of the Oilers, the two backups more often than not were still on the ice working out with the rest of the Edmonton scrubs.
Later, Markkanen and Conklin would come into the team's dressing ...

DUBOIS — Punxsy's Post 62 Senior Legion baseball team's season came to a disappointing end with a 6-4 loss against DuBois in the winner-take-all championship game Tuesday night at Showers Field in DuBois.
Punxsy manager Doug Mesoraco was proud of his players and the way they battled, though, not only Tuesday, but throughout the six years that he has been working with them.
BROOKVILLE — Punxsy 9-and-10 year olds took down Luigi's DuBois in round one of the Craig Lewis Memorial Tournament Tuesday in Brookville.
Punxsy's Willie Hoover went 3-for-3 from the plate with two doubles and three RBIs, leading his team's offense to victory.
Logan Johnston also had two doubles with three RBIs, going 2-for-3 at bat, and the team totaled eleven hits.
"I was impressed with everyone's play," Punxsy manager Mark Ewing said. "Everyone contributed really well."
Punxsy will take on the winner of the Franklin/ElCo II (St. Marys) game at 6 p.m. today in Brookville.
BROOKVILLE — The Brookville Area Little League Craig Lewis Memorial Tournament began Monday. The tournament features nine 9-and-10 year old teams and seven 11-and-12 year old teams from around the district.
In the first round, Punxsutawney 9-and-10 year olds faced Williams/Servco (Brookville) and were ousted. They fell 16-3 in four innings.
Brookville acted as the away team during Monday night's game and gained an early lead, scoring five runs in the top of the first.
ST. MARYS — "I've never seen anything like it," Punxsy manager Brad Gigliotti said after his team scored 21 runs in the first two innings of its game against king-seed St. Marys, rolling to a 21-3 victory in four innings in 10-&11-year old baseball All-Star action Monday night in St. Marys.
Punxsy, which was the home team, jumped out to a quick start defensively, forcing a groundout by the leadoff hitter and turning a double play after allowing the second runner to reach base safely.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Despite notching only three hits in six trips to the plate, Punxsy's 13- and 14-year old sPunxsy VFW All-Star team took advantage of six walks by Clearfield pitchers to score six runs and win 6-2 in the opening game of its round-robin tournament Monday night in Punxsutawney.
DUBOIS — The DuBois Post 17 American Legion baseball team scored five runs in the third, fourth and fifth innings of Sunday afternoon's game against Punxsy Post 62,.
The final score was 15-3, and the game ended in five innings via the 12-run rule at Showers Field in DuBois.
"We didn't bring the same intensity as we did the other day, that's for sure," Punxsy manager Mike Dickey said. "Maybe it was a let down. I don't know, I really can't explain it. They hit the ball well, and we didn't. We just didn't show up."
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Already leading 9-5, Punxsy's 10-&11-year old All-Stars brought 14 hitters to the plate in the top of the fifth inning and doubled its run total on the way to an 18-5 victory over DuBois Saturday in Punxsutawney.
"Everything carried over from up in Warren like I had hoped it would, especially at the plate," Punxsy manager Brad Gigliotti said.
Nine of the first 10 batters that Punxsy brought to the plate in the fifth inning reached base via base hits.
Carl Medsger led off the inning with a double off of DuBois relief pitcher Doran Walker.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Punxsy's Junior League softball All-Stars batted around in three of the four innings that it came to the plate en route to a 14-0 victory in five innings over Ridgway in Punxsutawney on Saturday.
Punxsy was the home team, so it did not have to bat in the fifth inning because of the ten-run rule.
With the win, Punxsy advances in the losers' bracket and will play St. Marys today at 6 p.m. Ridgway was eliminated from the tournament with the loss.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Punxsy Fezell Enterprises Junior Legion baseball team left 13 runners on base, scoring only one run, and lost the first of a best-of-three-game playoff series against Blairsville Kovacic Insurance 11-1 Friday night in Punxsutawney.
The loss was Punxsy's first in 14 games, as it ended the regular season with a 13 game winning streak.
Despite the loss, Punxsy is still alive in the opening round of the playoffs.
"We're not out of it yet," Punxsy manager Mike Klingensmith said. "We've got lots of good ball players, and we're going to go out there and get them tomorrow."
ROSSITER — The Rossiter Miners improved their record to 10-8 with a 7-0 victory against the Brookville Grays Friday night in Federation League action.
The Miners are now in a heated competition with the Grays for the second seed in the Fed League playoffs, which will begin Wednesday.
"We're excited with either second or third," Rossiter manager Rick Matthews said about his team's playoff seeding. "We're just excited to be up there."
Rossiter's offense was led by Jordan Mesoraco, who was 3-for-3 with two doubles and two RBIs.
He also scored one run.

This is the In Depth show blog. Here you can listen to our interviews, find more information about the guests on the show each day, as well as links to other stories and resources we discuss.
Today's Interviews:
Co-founder and director
Center for Internet Security
1.Sorting out the NSA fiasco. We will need to sort out how we create new, transparent rules governing NSA's cyber-intelligence mission without crippling our intelligence and counter-terrorism programs or denying the civil sector the ability to draw on the considerable and unique cybersecurity capabilities of NSA.
2. The 2014 mid-term elections. Despite the budget deal that runs through September 30, 2015, there will continue to be pressure on Representatives and Senators seeking reelection in districts and States where Tea Party is a force to prove their anti-big government and deficit reduction mettle. The need to raise the debt ceiling (NOT addressed in the budget deal) will create another opportunity to play out Act II (or is it Act III or IV) of the melodrama.
3. The aftermath of the Affordable Care Act roll-out. While the ideologues debate the merits of the ACA, the roll-out revealed once again the challenges that the government faces in managing large IT projects. The track record is not good. While legislation in the current Congress is unlikely, we need to start the work.
ACT-IAC Academy
1. Data Sharing. With the NSA being held to a higher standard because of Snowden's revealing NSA techniques, it will be more important than ever for agencies to share the information they do collect. Concerns include who has access to the data, sending and receiving securely.
2. Education. The long awaited brain drain of government retirees is now upon us, with many government personnel seeking retirement. There is much talk of a new generation of individuals coming up in the ranks, but they do not have some of the basic acquisition, project management and budget knowledge skills of those people leaving. Educating the new people, some of them at senior levels to avoid another Healthcare.gov will be a real challenge.
3. Budget. While congress has finally come to grips with providing a budget without government shutdowns like everything in Washington actions in one time period can have long term results. In 2014 the past shutdowns, sequestrations and budget cuts will begin to have an effect on the IT community and integrators.
Senior Adviser
Center for Strategic and International Studies
1. There will be a major push to modernize the retirement and compensation systems. The budget deal has already addressed these issues in a minor way, but the long term challenge remains. The Commission on Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization is due to report in May, and it is to be expected that its report will prompt discussions on both Capitol Hill and the Pentagon.
2. The question of Iran will be in the forefront once the six months of the current interim agreement are reached. There will be renewed questions about the likelihood of an American military strike.
3. Tensions between China and Japan could continue, raising questions about the pace, and efficacy, of the US "pivot" to Asia.
President and CEO
National Academy of Public Administration
1. Whither the civil service? With sequestration, furloughs, government shutdowns, coupled with increased pension contributions and paltry pay raises, will the federal civil service be able to deliver?
2. The need for increased collaborative government. With budget pressures continuing at the federal, state and local levels, how can all three levels of government better collaborate to deliver on programs for citizens?
3. A return to bipartisanship? Given the strong votes in the House and Senate on the budget accord, are we going to see a new "Era of Good Feeling? " If so, will it last for a second, minute, hour, day, week or month(s)?
Distinguished Fellow
Stimson Center
1. It's an election year. Will foreign and defense policy be an issue? Yes, if the Iran talks fail to produce a firm, long-term agreement. Yes, if Syria falls into the hands of Islamist rebels, if the civil war stays bloody, if the chemical agreement does not work or is violated. Yes, if the Saudis keep sniping and Obama for indecision. Yes, if China keeps pushing on the edge of war in the Second Island Chain. Yes, if there is a major terrorist attack on the US. No, if these go the right way.
2. We are on the edge of a conceptual shift in Us foreign policy. American exceptionalism is dying a difficult death, as the US adjusts to not being the indispensable nation. The Asians will settle their own hash, mostly. Africans are doing their own peacekeeping. The Europeans don't see much purpose for NATO after the withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Middle East is in turmoil and nobody wants the US to fix it; the Saudis are the latest to complain about what they see as feckless US leadership. The American military is having to adjust to less and to patrolling the globe less frequently. This trend could accelerate this coming year.
3. It's another budget year - will we have cliff-hangers through the year? No, it is likely to be one of the more quiet budget years since 2010. The "little deal" will turn out to be a big deal and nobody will want to go to the mattresses or over the edge on the debt ceiling or the budget. Power back to the appropriators, for a while, anyway. And a relief to civil servants, who paid nicely for the sequester madness. And a relief to voters, who are tired of a dysfunctional Congress.
Deloitte Consulting
2014 will be a year of tighter budgets and thinking about how to do what you do differently. Federal agencies tell industry they want new business models, innovation and better tools for understanding the data they collect. Tim Young, a principal at Deloitte Consulting and former deputy administrator at the Office of E-Government at the Office of Management and Budget, says the theme for his Top 3 for 2014 is "Rethinking Constraints, and Rethinking What's Possible." Click here for his full list of trends.
The Center for International Maritime Security
1. African Instability. The increasing instability flowing into and from Northern Nigeria has potentially dire regional and global consequences far in excess of our Pacific Pivot. More information
2. China/ADIZ escalation. While, as we've seen, the engagement will be formulaic as in the Arabian Gulf with Iran, it will increase in tempo and regularity. The addition of the new carrier increase the heat level from the friction and may serve as a not-so-Trojan horse for establishing control of the seas under the guise of monitoring the ADIZ. More information
3. Drones (potential developments). I don't necessarily know what developers are going to accomplish next, but developments in recognition and processing show great potential and every year there are new innovations in the private sector. Google's purchase of Boston Dynamics may be particularly fruitful.
4. Navy Ground-Up Innovation. Military innovation will hopefully lose its stigma as an oxymoron as the chain of command has shown real investment in deckplate innovations through efforts like the Athena Project and the CNO's Rapid Innovation Cell. Zumwalt would be proud. More information

1366 x 768 Vs. Full 1080 LCD TV--- Is there a real difference?
Hello folks,
After I purchased an HD Camcorder, I'm looking for a HD TV... yesterday I went to Costco to see what they've got.
I found an LG 1366 X 768 42" at a good price (2,200USD) but also a Sony bravia 40" 1920 × 1080 (3,500USD), I'm located in Mexico City, so prices are always higher compared to US.
Is there a real difference between the resolutions? is the full 1080 worth the price difference?
I plan to use the screen for watching Blu-Ray discs and my HV20 movies.
|Apr 30, 2007, 10:30 AM
If you're planning on watching BR movies, I'd say that there really is a difference, as they will take full advantage of the 1080p. Anything else- DVD, cable, etc. you really wouldn't be able to notice the difference.

That said, go to a shop that has more than one screen and that can show them with real HDTV material. The resolution limits how good a screen could possibly be, but there is also the question how close you get to that theoretical limit. I have looked at screens that were close together, and some 1366x768 showed a huge difference to the 1920x1080, others showed much less difference. Also check how good they are with ordinary DVDs: A good 1920x1080 will be slightly better than a 1366x768, but it really depends on the quality of the screens.
A good way to buy: Go to a shop with a good selection. First pick the absolute best that they have, no matter what the price. Then choose which ones you can/want afford, and pick the one that comes closest to the best one.
Note: 1920x1080 makes a huge difference if you also want to use the TV as a monitor for your Macintosh.
|Apr 30, 2007, 10:52 AM
For HDTVs that small it may not be worth the increase in price. According to this link you'd have to sit no more than about 5 feet away to see the full benefit of 1080 (assuming you have 20/20 vision, know what to look for, etc.,).
Also from the same link it says, "Also, the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF) states the the most important aspects of picture quality are (in order): 1) contrast ratio, 2) color saturation, 3) color accuracy, 4) resolution." So make sure you check out these other aspects of prospective TV sets and don't just fixate on resolution.

May be this will help:
1080p Does Matter - Here's When (Screen Size vs. Viewing Distance vs. Resolution)
EDIT: Dangnabbit, ya beat me to it.
CrEsTo: I have the LG (in EDTV 848X480 form) and have found it to be a decent TV. It has a very high contrast ratio (deep blacks) and great colour reproduction. Just make sure you don't place it near any windows as the screen, like all plasmas, is highly reflective. LG manufacture plasma panels for several big brand companies.

You might want to look at the westinghouse screens. They are 1080p and much cheaper than that. I think you can get a 42" LCD 1080p screen for $1300. They are a steal. Look on newegg.

Thanks everyone for your answers, after some research I think I will go for the Sony Bravia 40" Full 1080 KDL-40V2500.
Price difference at a retail store I went today is just $500 USD and after a test, Sony beats the LG model.

As steel mentioned it will be a task to get solder down those small holes properly.
One of the MOST common failures I see on boats is a failed soldered VHF connection. This is a safety issue. More often than not the failure is in soldering the shield or braided part of the coax. Seeing as I often need to replace these 55-65+ feet above the water while swinging back and forth in a bosuns chair in 10+ knots of wind I have settled on crimp and solder connectors.
Times, Amphenol, Pan-Pacific and others make them. You crimp the braid and solder the pin. Soldering the pin is quick and easy with a mini butane torch.. I have yet to have one fail..

Pilot study in three maintenance divisions
Meter installation and maintenance and billing to be outsourced30 per cent of the water connections are illegal
HYDERABAD: Faced with long pending bills, un-metered connections and a staff unable to make people cough up their arrears, the Hyderabad Metro Water Supply and Sewerage Board has decided to privatise its bill collection process. The plan is being implemented on a pilot basis in three of its maintenance divisions -- Adikmet, Asmangadh and Jubilee Hills.
Four companies had come forward for the same and three had qualified in the technical bids. The cost factor and the tenders would be finalised here on Friday.
"There is no active proposal to give away spot billing to private operators. We are only outsourcing the meter installation, meter maintenance and billing processes," HMWSSB managing director K.S. Jawahar Reddy said. While earlier the job of the water meter companies ended with the installation of the meters, it would now involve the maintenance and billing part too.
In touch with consumers
"This means the companies ought to be in contact with the consumers on a regular basis. While we have good revenue flowing in because of the flat rates in vogue for the water used, the new move would show us accurately the volume of water consumed and supplied. And once meters are in place all over, the revenue flow will be much higher," he maintained.
Further, billing by meter was crucial in the long run for the proposed round-the-clock supplies. Over the past one year, the HMWSSB initiated several moves to penalise users without water meters in the twin cities and bring them under its ambit, but to no avail.
According to official estimates, there are a staggering 1.60 lakh connections without legal water meters out of the 4.8 lakh connections. The board had even issued notices to all these customers but only a mere 40,000-odd complied with the orders. The number of individual households that owe the Board less than Rs. 5,000 runs to 70,000!

Special Correspondent
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: BJP leader M.S. Kumar has demanded the resignation of Port Minister M. Vijayakumar owning moral responsibility for the government's failure in handling the bids for the Vizhinjam port project in a flawless manner.
He alleged that a Polit Bureau member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) had influenced the government in awarding the tender to Lanco Kondapalli Power Ltd, ignoring the claims of Zoom Developers.
The decision to award the contract to the Andhra Pradesh-based company had triggered an agitation by local residents. While the company said the project could be set up only in 2,700 acres, Zoom Developers had offered to complete it in 60 acres, by reclaiming the sea.
The government was aiming at a real estate deal by awarding the contract to the Andhra company. Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan should clarify his stance on the Vizhinjam issue.

At first glance, it appears to be pretty simple to install a new oil or fuel filter on your heavy-duty vehicle: Just line up the threads and give it a spin. This mindset, however, can be dangerous to the vehicle's operation and overall health.

Uber submits $3 billion bid for Nokia's HERE Maps business
Uber has reportedly joined the race for Nokia's HERE Maps location business by submitting an offer of $3 billion in a bid to beat rival bids from automakers, Microsoft, Facebook and Google.

Uber has reportedly joined the race for Nokia's HERE Maps location business by submitting an offer of $3 billion in a bid to beat rival bids from automakers, Microsoft, Facebook and Google.
Microsoft's Aaron Butcher talks about some of the enhancements included in the new universal Maps app for Windows 10, as well as specific features and capabilities regarding the app for phones
One of the highlights of Nokia's smartphone range has arguably been the Here Maps suite but according to a new report, the Finnish manufacturer is reportedly considering a sale of its prized asset.
For those that have wanted an offline solution for mapping and navigation, Nokia is ready to help you out. HERE for Android has been released as a beta and is now available for download.
Nokia has shown decent growth throughout the last financial quarter and has managed to beat market expectations since offloading its loss making mobile phone business earlier this year.
From bendy iPhones and the iOS mess, to Xbox One, Galaxy Notes, the cheapest Windows 8.1 tablet ever and The Fappening (Pt II), we look back at highlights from this week's top news on Neowin.
A Nokia executive has said that the company is scaling back - but not completely ending - its development work on HERE Maps for Windows Phone, as it now plans to focus its efforts on Android and iOS.
Nokia is rolling out updates for HERE Maps on Windows Phone, with improved 3D landmarks, more detailed maps in smaller countries, and individual addresses visible on maps in more parts of the world.
HERE has updated its maps, offering a better visual experience with updated colors, terrain shading, and more. The new maps will only be available online and later on mobile OS's.
Nokia's HERE maps division has announced plans to acquire Medio, a Seattle-based company, to improve its location services with real-time search suggestions and provide personalized results .
Nokia has appointed Rajeev Suri as its new CEO and President. Nokia will have three areas of focus to improve the quality of its business and solidify its new place in the mobile industry.
Nokia has announced it is expanding the reach of its HERE Maps app to include all devices that run on Windows 8.1 or Windows 8.1 RT, after previously offering it just on the Lumia 2520 tablet.
Nokia has removed its iOS version of their HERE Maps app from Apple's App Store just over a year after it launched, claiming in a statement that "recent changes to iOS 7 harm the user experience."
A new report claims to have new information on the behind-the-scenes deal making between Microsoft and Nokia, stating that the final talks between them were over how to handle mapping software rights.
While Microsoft is planning to purchase much of Nokia's business, the Finland company will still be around after the deal closes as it concentrates its efforts on three businesses.
Nokia has announced that Microsoft will be acquiring the company's Devices and Services business, along with licensing Nokia's patents, and the license and use of Nokia's mapping services.
Nokia has now relaunched a number of its Lumia exclusive apps for Windows Phone 8 under the HERE brand and has made some of them available for all Windows Phone 8 devices.
Nokia has had to answer to rumours that it was planning to enter into the Android Phone market, following a recent job posting searching for a software engineer to work in "Embedded Linux Middleware."

Swastikas in Borough Park
"We go about our lives as if anti-Semitism can't touch us here in the United States."
This morning, sometime around 3:00 AM, at least five swastikas were spray painted on buildings and a car in Borough Park, Brooklyn, an area heavily populated by the remaining, living survivors of the Holocaust and their children and grand children. The NYPD is investigating and treating this as a hate crime.
So am I. When I heard that Fischman's Food Center, a grocery store owned by Bobover Hasidim on 16th Avenue, was targeted, I grabbed my camera and walked the block-and-a-half, my heart pounding. I've known the Fischmans since I moved here eight years ago.
The store was surrounded by crime-scene tape, residents, news teams, and detectives. A large swastika was spray-painted on one front window of the store and the vandals' tag, Recon, was sprayed on another. A member of Shomrim, the volunteer civilian patrol which works closely with the NYPD, told me that the Fischman's security cameras recorded the two vandals in the act shortly before 3:00 am. He said that more scenes would likely be uncovered throughout the day.
Inside the store, I overheard a member of the hate crimes taskforce say they were able to extract the images, which were very good quality.
The shopkeepers are Moshe and Scheindel Fischman who've been in business since the 1970s. Mrs. Fischman is a great-grandmother in her 60s and the daughter of holocaust survivors. Her father Moshe David, who passed away almost two years ago at the age of 97, was a hero responsible for keeping a contingent of Siberian WWII prisoners alive.
At night, in below-freezing weather, he'd sneak past armed guards and attack dog, sift through the guards' garbage pails, and smuggle potato skins under his clothing. Also, under open threats of death, he performed numerous (over 70), ritual circumcisions, on infant Jewish boys born in the Siberian wasteland. For Mrs. Fischman, as for most inhabitants of Borough Park, this triggers traumatic memories.
"My father brought me from England to America in 1969. I saw open anti-Semitism growing up in England. The other school-children would throw things at us on our way to school." America, she said, was a "breath of fresh air" to her, and where she decided to stay and raise a family.
Down the block from the Fischmans' store, on 42nd Street between 15th and 16th, and around the corner from the Montauk High School, another swastika has been sprayed on a van window.
In Borough Park, before you see the NYPD (or firefighters), you see the admiring children, mostly elementary school-age boys with long peyos and Yiddish accents, and a sprinkling of a few shy girls. One of the officers at the scene was talking to a resident, who told me that this isn't the first time she's witnessed this kind of vandalism. Another resident, Suri bas-Chana, told me that this was "a wake-up call."
"We aren't really paying attention," she told me. "We go about our lives as if anti-Semitism can't touch us here in the United States."
Two blocks in the other direction up 16th Avenue from the Fischman's store, the Stolin synagogue was targeted. Several film crews are at the scene. Around the corner a mikvah was similarly defaced.
Councilman David Greenfield released a statement: "Once again, we find ourselves under attack from individuals who think nothing of spreading hate and fear throughout the community. This is absolutely unacceptable, especially in an area that is home to so many Holocaust survivors. Rest assured, I will work with the NYPD until those responsible for this horrific crime are caught and held responsible."
He's offering $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators.
The locations of five swastikas (reports are coming in that over eight have been found, are): 4609 16th Ave., 4619 16th Ave., 4423 16th Ave., 4623 18th Ave., and 42nd between 15th and 16th on a van.

Asus GeforceFX 5600 VideoSuite (flicker and corruption)

Asus GeforceFX 5600 VideoSuite (flicker and corruption)
Hello, i own an Asus GeforceFX 5600 VideoSuite, which has dual DVI ports and i have two SONY SDM-X73B TFT monitors connected to the two dvi ports.
The system has been running smoothly for 2 years now. Though a few days ago i started having problems:
When i try to run some game or application that uses hardware acceleration (even playing some movie). The first DVI port causes flickering and screen corruption.
The proper appears ONLY on the first DVI port AND ONLY when i'm running some 3D game/app or use some kind of hardware acceleration by playing a video.
The second DVI port doesn't have any problems and when i run plain applications everything looks ok.
I've also tested both WindowsXP Pro and Fedora Core 3 Linux. The proper is not software related since it happens on both operating systems.
In addition, i've switched the monitors/cables around to make sure this isn't a monitor/cable problem. Thus, i've confirmed it is a problem with the first DVI port.
Any help would be appriciated.
Thank you.

Xbox One Twitch users have broadcast nearly 23 million minutes of gameplay
Posted on April 1, 2014 AT 07:05am
Xbox One users have broadcast nearly 23 million minutes of gameplay via Twitch, Microsoft has announced today.
According to a post on Xbox Wire, 108,000 unique users tried streaming via Twitch during its first week of availability—accounting for 22 percent of the service's broadcasting base during the same period—with more than 2.7 million minutes broadcast between March 10-11. As you'd expect, Titanfall is the most broadcast game with more than 10 million minutes streamed.
"We have always considered enabling live streaming directly from consoles to be a key step in unlocking the ability for all gamers to share their experiences," said Emmett Shear, Founder and CEO of Twitch. "Yet we never imagined the popularity would spread as fast as it has.
"Microsoft has really helped drive this expansion, and the great system architecture of Xbox One has allowed us to build a really great broadcasting experience with a robust feature set. We're all very excited about working with Microsoft to continue rolling out new features on the platform."

250GB Console
Featuring a newly redesigned body, the 250 GB Xbox 360 "Slim" is one of the currently sold versions of Microsoft's console and was first made available on June 18, 2010.
The Xbox 360 S received an increase in USB ports, from 3 to 5, a special AUX port for use with the Microsoft Kinect, and built-in Wi-Fi and optical audio port. The physical Power and Eject buttons were replaced with touch-sensitive alternatives. The proprietary hard drive was also upgraded.
A new motherboard was used, resulting in a quieter console that produced less heat than its predecessors.
Originally sold in a glossy finish, 250 GB Box 360 S consoles now use a matte finish.
