Google I/O is here, and the company's big keynote is still underway. The biggest announcement so far is - as expected - Android M, the next major Android release scheduled for Q3 of this year. Much like how the last few iOS releases played catch-up to major Android features, Android M is really catching up to a number of major, stand-out iOS features - and all of them are very welcome.
The biggest new feature coming to Android M is App Permissions - and it's exactly what you're thinking. Instead of applications asking for all possible permissions during installation time, they will now only ask for a permission the first time you use the specific feature of the application that requires it. If you've ever used iOS - well, it's that, essentially. In addition, you can go into the Settings application and revoke an application's individual permissions, or the other way around - look at which applications have a specific permission.
If you're familiar with Android, you'll be aware of the incredibly long and confusing list of possible permissions. Alongside implementing an iOS-like permission system, Android M will also pare down the number of permissions to a much smaller number (I think I saw 8 or 10?), making them clearer and more straightforward. All good so far, and yet another example of how competition between the major platforms makes both of them better - consumers, win.
There's bad news, though, and it's this: the new permission system will only work with applications built with the Android M SDK. "Legacy" applications will, sadly, default to the existing permission system. While that in and of itself is disappointing enough, it also means we'll be using two different permission systems at the same time for at least several months, and possibly years.
Another major new feature in M is a new power state, called Doze, which is basically a deeper form of sleep. Your device will learn your usage patterns, and move to this deep sleep state when it's not being used. According to Google, tablets will benefit the most from this, doubling their standby time. For phones, which get used more often, this will deliver less benefit.
Android's intents system is also getting an upgrade, allowing applications to directly link to each other, without throwing up that "open with" dialog. Google Wallet is getting an upgrade and a name change - Android Pay - and now works pretty much exactly like Apple Pay, and it will be available on all Android phones with NFC. In addition, it supports fingerprint readers. Support for these readers will be further integrated and standardised in M.
There's a lot more in Android M, but these are the biggest features. Google is releasing a developer preview for select Nexus devices today, and the final release will happen somewhere in Q3. This being Android, though, the biggest elephant in the room remained unmentioned: updates. As great as Android M looks, you'll most likely not be getting it until somewhere next year. Such is life.
A God In Ruins is a novel by the author Kate Atkinson, following on from a previous novel by the same author entitled Life After Life.
The book is 24 cm high and 16.2 cm wide. Across the main surface appears a predominantly brown background, depicting wooden boards. Upon them lies or hangs a rabbit, that is possibly dead, but could also be alive.
A great story about ethics in book journalism.
The Justice Department is weighing in on the hot-button intellectual property dispute between Google and Oracle, telling the Supreme Court that APIs are protected by copyright.
The Obama administration's position means it is siding with Oracle and a federal appeals court that said application programming interfaces are subject to copyright protections. The high court in January asked for the government's views on the closely watched case.
Words can't describe how stupid this is, so here's a picture of a bunny wearing a hat.
The Verge reviews the Pebble Time - the new Pebble, with all-new hardware and all-new software. They conclude:
Right now, the Time is an accessory to your smartphone, which is exactly what Pebble wants it to be. But while other smartwatches feel like futuristic platforms that just need more refinement and purpose, it's not clear how the Pebble Time could go beyond what it already is. It has smaller ambitions than Apple and Google, and for the most part, it already achieves those ambitions. The notifications could certainly get better, the timeline integrations could definitely get more plentiful, and the watch faces could get more colorful. But at the end of the day, it's still a thing that you wear on your wrist so you don't have to pick up your phone at every incoming text message.
Strange how what they see as a downside for the Pebble compared to Wear and the Apple Watch, I consider to be its strengths. Pebble doesn't waste battery and screen real estate on stuff that's just cumbersome on a watch and only serves to put a really, really complex, cumbersome, and slow UI on a tiny screen on your wrist. The Pebble definitely looks to be a lot more watch and a lot less computer than Google's and Android's offerings, and that's a good thing in my book - not a bad thing.
Much better battery life, always-on display, fast and responsive software, and a really simple and straightforward UI. Too bad that the regular Pebble Time isn't exactly the prettiest watch out there, but luckily, the Pebble Time Steel looks a little better. Still square though, so those of us who prefer round watches will have to wait around a bit longer.
Part of the power of a personal assistant comes from being available on the go, on the device you carry with you everywhere. And for people who don't have the benefit of a Windows phone, we want to extend the advantage of Cortana in Windows 10. How will this work? Today, we're announcing a Cortana application for Android phones and for iPhones which works as a companion to Cortana on your Windows 10 PC. The 'Phone Companion' app on the PC will help you install the Cortana app from the Google Play or Apple App Store onto your phone so you'll be able to take the intelligence of Cortana with you, wherever you go.
I've never seen anyone use Siri, save for the occasional parlour trick and the odd one out using it to set alarms. I'm not sure these anthropomorphised ones and zeros are really as a big a deal as these companies want us to believe.
Have you noticed an odd bulge in people's shorts around Accra?
It's likely because, like many of my friends, they've recently acquired a new phone. But it's not the iPhone 6 Plus, and it's not the Samsung Galaxy S6.
I like it. It's functional and has a certain charm to it.
After many complaints from the developer community about poor networking performance on Yosemite, the latest beta of OS X 10.10.4 has dropped the discoveryd in favor of the old process used by previous versions of Mac operating system. This should address many of the network stability issues introduced with Yosemite and its new networking stack.
A clearer sign that discoveryd was a mess, there is not.
The just released version 15.05 of the Genode OS Framework is the most comprehensive release in the project's history. Among its highlights are a brand-new documentation in the form of a book, principal support for the seL4 microkernel, new infrastructure for user-level device drivers, and the feature completion of the framework's custom kernel.
For many years, the Genode OS project was primarily geared towards microkernel enthusiasts and the domain of high-security computing. With version 15.05, the project likes to widen its audience by complementing the release with the downloadable book "Genode Foundations" (PDF). The book equips the reader with a thorough understanding of the architecture, assists developers with the explanation of the development environment and system configuration, and provides a look under the hood of the framework. Furthermore, it contains the specification of the framework's programming interface. If you ever wondered what Genode is all about, the book may hopefully lift the clouds.
Besides the added documentation, the second focus of the new version is the project's custom kernel platform called base-hw. This kernel allows the execution of Genode on raw hardware without the need of a 3rd-party microkernel. This line of work originally started as a research vehicle for ARM platforms. But with the addition of kernel-protected capabilities, it has reached feature completeness. Furthermore, thanks to the developers of the Muen isolation kernel, base-hw has become available on the 64-bit x86 architecture. This represents an intermediate step towards running Genode on top of the Muen kernel.
Speaking of kernels, the current release introduces the principle ability to run Genode-based systems on top of the seL4 microkernel. As the name suggests, seL4 belongs to the L4-family of microkernels. But there are two things that set this kernel apart from all the other family members. First, with the removal of the kernel memory management from the kernel, it solves a fundamental robustness and security issue that plagues all other L4 kernels so far. This alone would be reason enough to embrace seL4. Second, seL4 is the world's first OS kernel that is formally proven to be correct. That means, it is void of implementation bugs. This makes the kernel extremely valuable in application areas that highly depend on the correctness of the kernel.
At the architectural level, the framework thoroughly revised its infrastructure for user-level device drivers, which subjects device drivers to a rigid access-control scheme with respect to hardware resources. The architectural changes come along with added support for message-signaled interrupts and a variety of new device drivers. For example, there is a new AHCI driver, new audio drivers ported from OpenBSD, new SD-card drivers, and added board support for i.MX6.
Further noteworthy improvements are the update of the tool chain to GCC 4.9.2, support for GPT partitions, and the ability to pass USB devices to VirtualBox when running on NOVA. These and the many more topics of the version 15.05 are covered in great detail in the release documentation.
The team quickly came to the conclusion that in order to keep Dolphin relevant in an ever-changing environment, it would need to be relicensed under GPLv2+. This would give Dolphin some much needed freedom to breathe within the open source landscape. As such, relicensing formally began in September of 2014.
A massive undertaking.
Apple's Jony Ive has served as the company's Senior Vice President of Design for several years now, but Apple has announced today that the executive is being named Chief Design Officer (a newly-created position). Additionally, Ive and will be handing the managerial reins of both the industrial and software design units at Apple over to two new leaders on July 1st.
Ive's new role will still leave him in charge of the company's hardware and software design teams overall, but allowing others to handle the day-to-day affairs of each design group will free him up for other tasks. Among those other tasks, Ive says, is a focus on the design of Apple's retail stores and new campus.
Let the pointless speculation, begin.
Interesting experiment by the developers of Rust.
When the game was first opened up, all players were given the same default avatar: a bald white man. With the most recent update, Rust's lead developer, Garry Newman, introduced different avatars of different racial origins into the mix. However, they did so with a twist - unlike typical massively multiplayer online role-playing games, Rust does not allow players to choose the race of their avatar. Instead, they are assigned one at random.
Interestingly enough, the inability to choose skin colour only became a problem after a black skin colour was added to the game. I love experiments like this.
While this is very interesting, instead of working with just a few partners, Microsoft should've just opened the code for their new rendering engine altogether. At this point, it makes little sense to keep this kind of important code closed.
When it comes to open source, the new Microsoft is only a little bit new.
Enter qboot, a minimal x86 firmware that runs on QEMU and, together with a slimmed-down QEMU configuration, boots a virtual machine in 40 milliseconds on an Ivy Bridge Core i7 processor.
The code's on github.
The year was 1973. They were high school seniors in a work-study program with NASA, tasked with testing the limits of the Imlac PDS-1 and PDS-4 minicomputers. Their maze program flickered into life with simple wireframe graphics and few of the trappings of modern games. You could walk around in first person, looking for a way out of the maze, and that's about it. There were no objects or virtual people. Just a maze.
But Maze would evolve over the summer and the years that followed. Soon two people could occupy the maze together, connected over separate computers. Then they could shoot each other and even peek around corners. Before long, up to eight people could play in the same maze, blasting their friends across the ARPANET - a forebear to the internet. Two decades before id Software changed the game industry with Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, Colley, Palmer and MIT students Greg Thompson and Dave Lebling invented the first-person shooter.
Amazing story.
In a midnight session, the Senate has voted down the USA Freedom Act, putting one of the legal bedrocks of the NSA's bulk surveillance programs into jeopardy. The Patriot Act is set to expire at the end of the month, and the USA Freedom Act would have extended large portions of the act in modified form. Tonight's failure to arrive at a vote makes it likely that many of those powers will automatically expire, although Senate Majority Leader McConnell (R-KY) scheduled a last-minute session on May 31st for one last shot at passing the bill.
The American people won a battle today, but the war is far, far from over.
Mozilla has revamped its Firefox OS mobile software project after concluding that ultra-affordable $25 handsets aren't enough to take on the biggest powers of the smartphone world, CNET has learned.
You can make a smartphone for $35. You can't make a decent smartphone for $35. It's good Mozilla recognises this.
LiteOS is the world's most lightweight IoT OS. It is small in size at 10KB and supports zero configuration, auto-discovery, and auto-networking. It can be widely applied to different areas including smart homes, wearable, connected vehicles and other industries. The LiteOS helps to simplify the development of smart hardware to enhance IoT connectivity. In addition, Huawei announced that LiteOS will be opened to all developers, which enables them to quickly develop their own IoT products.
Meanwhile, Google is rumoured to be unveiling an IoT OS as well during IO.
Michael Bromwich was in court with the most powerful company and the top government law agency in the country when he seemed to get antsy. Apple and the United States Department of Justice had, after all, been exchanging jabs about him. "I'd like to be heard, your Honor, if I can," he told the judge, who said they'd need to "exhaust the arguments of the main combatants" first.
Wanting to interject would be understandable, considering how long Bromwich and Apple had been putting up their dukes inside and outside of court in a bloody fight over cash and corporate power. In July 2013, Apple was found guilty of conspiring to fix market prices for ebooks. The judge in the case, Denise Cote, said there was "a clear portrait of a conscious commitment to cross a line and engage in illegal behavior." The prosecution's case was so clear-cut, and Apple showed such little contrition, according to Cote, that it wasn't enough to take the company's word that it would change. To make sure Apple fell in line, she called in help.
That would turn out to be Bromwich, a bearded, bespectacled attorney appointed by the court to be Apple's corporate monitor for two years, a job made to ensure Apple complied with court rulings.
You rarely hear much about this kind of stuff. It seems like it's not a wise move by Apple to go against the grain of the courts this much, but then again, what do I know.
For the first time in several years, Apple is changing up its annual iOS and OS X upgrade cycle by limiting new feature additions in favor of a "big focus on quality," according to multiple sources familiar with the company's operating system development plans. We first reported in February that iOS 9, codenamed "Monarch," would heavily feature under-the-hood optimizations, and we've now learned that Apple is taking the same approach with OS X 10.11, codenamed "Gala." Sources have revealed additional new details on how Apple will optimize the new operating systems for improved stability and performance, add several new security features, and make important changes to its Swift programming tools for developers.
Setting aside the absurdity of longtime Apple users arguing in favour of this kind of almost impenetrable complexity, John Gruber's recent piece on the behaviour of the button inside the Apple Watch's crown is telling.
Here's a better way to think about it - and without thinking about it, the reason why I think most people aren't frustrated or confused by the crown button after a week or so. It's best to think of Apple Watch as having two modes: watch mode, and app mode.
You do not need to understand this to use the watch. Most Apple Watch owners will never really think about this. But this idea of two modes is central to understanding the design of the overall interaction model.
The UI complexity problem of the Apple Watch stems from two sets of overlapping user interface elements: applications/glances and the homescreen/watch face (which are both, in turn, overlapped by the communications application and its dedicated button). For reasons that I do not understand (okay I totally understand why), the designers of the Apple Watch UI couldn't say no and couldn't make any decisions, leading to the clusterfrick of a UI it has now.
What puzzles me the most is that untangling this mess would not have been complicated - just copy the iPhone. Homescreen with application icons, and a (centered!) crown to act as a home button. Bam, done. Everything else is needless complexity, especially on such a small device you're not supposed to stare at for longer than a few seconds at a time anyway.
Gruber's piece is telling, because as a longtime Apple user, you should never need that many words to explain something that could be as elementary as the homescreen/home button combination of the iPhone. Needing this many words should raise all kinds of red flags that it's just not intuitive.
There're several reasons why it's easier to pick up an iPhone than an Android device, and the simplicity of its homescreen/home button is a big one.

The Digital Water Level Indicator is a digital electronic device that accurately displays the water level in a rainwater tank from 0 to 100% using a radio frequency cable sensor that hangs in any open plastic or concrete tank.
* Newer models have a blue faceplate (differs in color from face shown in photo).
The display must be mounted in a dry location within 150 feet of the tank and wired to a control box mounted in the tank manway. The standard sensor measures tanks with up to 9 feet of water; an optional longer sensor measures tanks with up to 19 feet of water. Since the system is powered using a plug-in 24 volt transformer, an electrician is not necessary for safe installation. Due to the possibility of radio-frequency interference, this device is not recommended for use in steel tanks or tight spaces.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/21/12
Willis McGahee has been placed on recallable injured reserve by the AFC West-leading Denver Broncos. The Broncos (7-3) put their 31-year-old running back on the list Wednesday, meaning he can return to practice after missing the final six regular-season games and play in a game after missing two more. That would bring Denver up to the AFC title game. McGahee tore the medical collateral ligament in his right knee Sunday when he was tackled low by San Diego cornerback Quentin Jammer. Coach John Fox says McGahee won't need surgery. McGahee ranks fifth among AFC rushers with 731 yards. He'll be replaced by rookie Ronnie Hillman, Lance Ball and former first-round pick Knowshon Moreno, who's been inactive since Week 2. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL

When I go into Install Manager nothing is loading - none of my Master Series such as The Block even simple things like widgets, or other Bryce related files.
Can someone please advise me where to the correct path under settingsin Install Manager. This also happens alot with Daz Studio. I may just have a simple directory issue but is older content for Bryce, Carrara or D|S not going to work with the new Install Manager? It is in my Install Manager directory and yes I purchased everything from Daz so I am at a lost and want to work in Bryce and other programs without directory errors or no installs.

This pageant queen beauty is a force to reckoned with -- her stunning looks and tough personality are all she needs to get the attention that she craves from her numerous male friends. A San Francisco transplant originally from West Virginia, Ashley's bubbly personality and her connection to all of the late-night hot spots are initially welcomed by the roommates. But eventually she clashes with a few of them (especially Jamie) as they began to question who Ashley really is. Will the roommates give this party girl another chance or leave her floating off into the San Francisco sunset?

Detroit Red Wings @ St. Louis Blues Free NHL Pick 4/4/12
- Updated: April 4, 2012
Two of the best teams in the Central Division meet up in NHL betting time in what could be a big time playoff preview when the Detroit Red Wings challenge the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday night.

The Red Wings are still trying to make sure that they finish in second place in the Central Division. If they are able to do that, they will be the No. 4 seed and get home ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs over either the Chicago Blackhawks or Nashville Predators. If not though, it is off on the road, where Detroit is just a woeful 16-21-3 this year. It is strange to think that this team might not have a single player notch even 70 points this season. The Wings are a team that normally rank in the tops of the league offensively, but this year, 3.0 goals per game seems a tad lackluster. There have been a slew of injuries, though the efforts of all have been well-rounded. Henrik Zetterberg, Valtteri Filppula and Pavel Datsyuk all have at least 64 points on the campaign, and they are three of the five that have a shot at reaching 20 goals on the year. There are a total of 10 Red Wings that have at least 10 goals on the campaign as well.
If you aren't all that impressed with the numbers that the Red Wings put up this year offensively, you are going to hate what the Blues have done. David Backes leads the team with just a total of 54 points on the year. St. Louis has clearly made itself this season by taking care of the puck, playing great defense, and getting strong net minding. Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliott both have GAAs below 2.00, and there aren't many teams in the history of the league that can boast that, knowing that this has legitimately been a platoon all season long. Elliott has the best GAA in the league at 1.48. The team has dropped two in a row, but the Central Division title has already been locked up. It is going to be hard to run down the Vancouver Canucks for the top seed in the West, but that is still the ultimate goal for this team at this point.
Detroit Red Wings @ St. Louis Blues Pick: The loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets was awfully puzzling for the Blues in their last game. That being said, we think that their home ice advantage for a team that already has 30 victories here at Scottrade Arena this year, is going to be the difference, especially against a team that is well below .500 for the campaign on the road.
Free Hockey Pick: St. Louis Blues -145

2:15PM ET: White House CBS CBS Ustream
The San Francisco Examiner: … Four years ago, under a different owner, The San Francisco Examiner endorsed John McCain and Sarah Palin for president. Happily, the nation's voters had a better idea. Today, as a different paper under new ownership, we wholeheartedly endorse Barack Obama and Joe Biden for a second term so that they can move forward with reforms this country needs.
A president's second term is an opportunity to implement his legacy agenda. Nothing we have seen suggests that Barack Obama will be content to rest on his laurels in the next four years.
Full editorial here
Today (all times ET):
12:25: President Obama departs San Francisco
4:20: Arrives in Columbus, Ohio
4:30: Michelle Obama speaks to grassroots supporters in Loudoun County, Va. (CNN have this listed for live streaming, but for 5:20 – will check)
5:00: President Obama delivers remarks at a campaign event at Ohio State University in Columbus
7:15: Departs Columbus
7:30: Michelle Obama attends a campaign fundraising event in McLean, Va.
8:40: President Obama arrives at the White House
Miami Herald: From a Florida Democratic Party email: …. September is the 8th consecutive month that Democrats have out-registered Republicans …. registered 18,063 more voters than Republicans, beating them by 16-percent …. they had a nearly 30-percent registration advantage with Hispanics. Overall, Democrats are beating Republicans in Hispanic registration by roughly 10-points.
In September, Democrats had a 21-percent registration advantage with women. Overall, Democrats are beating Republicans in women registration by roughly 10-points….
Florida's September voter registration data shows Democrats' most impressive month yet: we've out-registered the GOP in Florida by over 16-percent in September, with over 43,000 new Democrats on the rolls.
Florida Democrats have built the strongest, largest ground game this state has ever seen – we are entering the final month in a strong position to win Democratic victories up and down the ticket.
Thank you for your handwork and support. We've got 29 days to bring it home and we can't let up now.

Gotta Register
Here's a poll that probably won't get much attention ;-)
Washington Post
Deaniac83 (The People's View): Last week, we talked a little bit about the Right's attempt to play the refs by complaining that pollsters were polling too many Democrats – where in fact, the numbers were justified by both the Democrats' registration advantage and last presidential election's voting patterns. So what did our national media and pollsters do? They quickly groveled at the feet of the loud screeching noise-makers, of course.
Today, for example, there is a Pew poll out showing Mitt Romney has taken a lead in national polling of likely voters, 49-45, a full 11-point swing since the same poll from two weeks ago. Did the debate make all the difference? Don't be silly. Here's what really happened: Pew polled fewer voters altogether, and, they acquiesced to the wingnut browbeating and entirely took away the Democratic registration advantage documented in actual voting in 2008, registration data, and well, their own previous polling. Here, in a nutshell, is what really happened….

Dana Milbank: …. Scrubbing one's brain clean of previous positions has been Mitt Romney's stock in trade. In fact, his foreign-policy speech Monday to the Virginia Military Institute was one long gargle-and-rinse of the candidate's previous positions.
Last year, Romney called the Obama administration's intervention in Libya "mission creep and mission muddle." On Monday, he accused Obama of declining to use "America's greatest power to shape history"…. Last year, Romney said American troops "shouldn't go off and try to fight a war of independence for another nation …. On Monday, he spoke of that same conflict as a matter of the utmost national importance…. Last year, Romney reversed his earlier support for the Iraq war …. On Monday, he was back to his original view….
Just a few months ago, Romney said "there's just no way" to achieve peace between the Israelis and Palestinians because Palestinians are "not wanting to see peace." …. On Monday, he said he would "recommit America to the goal of a democratic, prosperous Palestinian state living side by side in peace and security" with Israel.
Rub-a-dub-dub! Four positions got scrubbed.
Full article here
NYT Editorial: Mitt Romney mounted a big foreign policy display on a flag-draped stage at the Virginia Military Institute on Monday, serving up a lot of tough-sounding sound bites and hawkish bumper stickers, some of them even bumping up somewhere close to the truth, to give the appearance that he would be stronger and more forceful on international affairs than President Obama.
He seems to consider himself, ludicrously, a leader similar to the likes of Harry Truman and George Marshall, and, at one point, he obliquely questioned Mr. Obama's patriotism. The hope seems to be that big propaganda, said loudly and often, will drown out Mr. Obama's respectable record in world affairs, make Americans believe Mr. Romney would be the better leader and cover up the fact that there is mostly just hot air behind his pronouncements.
…. Americans deserve an intensive, textured and honest discussion on foreign policy. They did not get it on Monday. Mr. Obama should respond, forcefully, to Mr. Romney on these issues, even before their next debate on Oct. 16, which will include issues of foreign affairs.
Keep on tweeting this:
The Fact Checker (Washington Post): We will leave analysis of the GOP presidential nominee's major foreign-policy address to the pundits, though we were pleased to see that he did not repeat his frequent claim that Obama "apologized" for America — a phrase we and other fact-checkers have long debunked.
Still, we were interested in his assertion about the size of the Navy. Is the Navy really in the worst shape it has been in 96 years?
…. The Pinocchio Test: This is a nonsense fact. In his counting of ships, Romney equates gunboats with aircraft carriers and torpedo boats with nuclear-powered submarines. For such an important speech, one would think the candidate would resolve to use the most relevant facts possible.

President Obama did not reprise his rendition of Al Green's "Let's stay together" in a duet with the famous crooner Thursday, saying once was enough.
"I took a chance at the Apollo and I'm not going to take a chance again," he told supporters at a San Francisco fundraiser where Green performed the song solo, according to a pool report.
"Now, what is possible is after reelection, I might go on tour with the good Reverend. Be his opening act," Obama said. "But I don't want to lose any further votes because of my singing voice."
AP: President Barack Obama raised more than $29 million for his campaign and for the Democratic Party in January, a strong fundraising month that put him ahead of the pace he set in the last quarter of 2011.
….. The month's haul raises Obama's total combined fundraising for this election cycle to about $250 million. In the last three months of 2011, he averaged about $23 million a month.
…. Presidential candidates must submit January fundraising reports to the Federal Election Commission on Friday. The Obama campaign's full report is expected later in the day.

Mandated flu shots resisted in Shelby County health facilities
State, local hospitals not requiring H1N1 vaccine for health care workers
As health care workers worldwide mount protests against mandated seasonal or H1N1 influenza vaccinations, Shelby County's largest medical institutions are not requiring the shots.
Vaccination mandates by the New York Department of Health sparked protests by health care workers at the state capitol in Albany earlier this week, and protestors in London are gearing up for an anti-vaccination rally at the House of Lords this weekend.
Many protestors believe the H1N1 vaccine was too hastily tested before it was mass produced and is an unfit treatment.
Locally, the issue got hotter Thursday when an e-mail surfaced in which it was claimed that "the doctors at Baptist are advising that their staff and patients NOT get this vaccination. They have had several reports of people getting Guillain-Barre Syndrome."
Guillain-Barré syndrome affects about 1 person in 100,000 and surgery and vaccinations will occasionally trigger the syndrome, according to the National Institutes of Health.
The e-mail originated in the Fort Smith, Ark., area. Officials at nearby Baptist Health in Little Rock said the e-mail does not pertain to its hospital nor does it have a policy against vaccination.
In Memphis, an official said a former employee brought the e-mail to their attention late last week. The system dispelled the rumor in e-mails to Baptist employees and on an internal Web site.
Baptist officials said the vaccination was not mandatory, but an online vaccination course is being required for all Baptist employees
"We have intensified efforts to gain increase compliance in taking the vaccine," said Beverly Jordan, vice president and chief nurse executive with Baptist Memorial Health Care Corp.
In fact, Jordan said, overall employee vaccinations were up at Baptist this year compared to last.
Elsewhere, no Tennessee agency has mandated flu shots this year. However, state health care workers must sign a waiver from the Tennessee Department of Health should they decline either the seasonal or the H1N1 vaccination.
A state official said the waivers are to ensure health care workers are given adequate information about flu vaccinations and to track unvaccinated workers.
Barbara Guerard, vice president of adult multi-specialty services for UT Medical Group Inc., said the group hopes to vaccinate 100 percent of its staff for the seasonal flu this year.
"It's an aggressive mark and it is not mandatory but we're trying to make it easy for our employees by setting up dates they can get vaccinated at work," Guerard said.
George Mayzell, chief patient care officer for Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare Inc., said his system is not mandating flu shots, but said it is something that will be evaluated on a year-to-year basis "with the ultimate goal being patient safety."
Suzy Scott-Williams, past president of the Memphis district of the Tennessee Nurses Association, said whether a vaccination is mandatory should be left up individual hospitals.
"In the current state of the H1N1 outbreak, nurses and health care workers should be strongly encouraged to take flu vaccinations," Scott-Williams said. "I'm not saying (whether mandatory vaccinations) are right or wrong but it is extremely important for health care workers to get their shots."
Tennessee Department of Health
No state mandates on either seasonal or H1N1 flu vaccines for health care workers.
No vaccination mandates from Shelby County's largest health care organizations.
Memphis health care officials believe H1N1 vaccine will arrive here "anytime."

I'm really quite a homebody like to stay home and cuddle on the couch and watch movies, but I like to go out every once in a while too.

I grew up in the country so I love to go on the quads and ride horses, I used to own a horse of my own. I'm pretty much open to anything that has to do with outdoors, I even hunt. I love to shoot guns and i guess I'm kind of a tomboy but don't get me wrong i like to have my nails and hair done. But I don't care if i break one they can be replaced and I love to get my hands dirty. I'm very independant and take care of myself and my daughter on my own, her dad doesn't help at all. I really just want someone who will love me for me and accept my daughter as well. We're a package deal and if you can handle that I would love to chat and have some fun!

Firstable sorry for my English. I've been scanning medium format during last year using a Braun fs120, but I've discovered that it has difficult scanning c-41 developed negatives. Not with all, ONLY scanning brown/orange negatives. So I have to get perfect c-41 process in order to getting RED negatives. I am using tetenal c-41 (following correctly all instructions, times, etc.).
Left: negatives developed in shop, right: my development.
When the negative scanned is brown or orange when you see the finel image you can find red color over the darks places, and sometimes a blue soft filter over all the image. I found sometimes paralelles lines in the sky as you can see:
Somebody know how to get this red color please? Perhaps using other chemicals?
Thank you very much.

Bremerton School Board Delays Decision on Superintendent
Things spun out of control at a Bremerton School Board meeting Thursday night as angry audience members demanded fast action on a superintendent selection process and members of a dysfunctional board fought among themselves.
"That's BULL ...!" board member Louis Mitchell shouted as President Cynthia Galloway banged the gavel down hard to end the meeting, leaving the remainder of the evening's work undone.
In such a circus atmosphere, there was little chance of the board offering interim Superintendent Bette Hyde her old job of permanent superintendent. A decision on that was to have been made Thursday.
Hyde announced her retirement as superintendent last spring, came back in the summer as interim superintendent, and now wants to return as permanent superintendent. She now earns her a salary plus a state-funded retirement amounting to close to $200,000.
Instead, before things exploded, board members voted to put off any move on Hyde's future until her interim stint runs out. It is not known if or when it will be taken up again.
Mitchell's shout at the conclusion of the meeting was in reference to a contention made by other board members that they had not tried to force him off the board at an earlier executive session.
At the same time, shouts were coming from the audience of about 100 people, many of them very angry.
"We want action!" Paul Drnjevic yelled at board members.
Another accused Galloway of allowing board member DeWayne Boyd to speak, but not Mitchell. Board member Vicki Collins packed up her purse and books like she was getting ready to leave, her eyes rolling toward Mitchell. Boyd repeatedly tried to lecture the audience on a number of topics, but few had the patience to listen.
Board members did decide to set up a task force to decide criteria for selecting a superintendent.
Earlier in the meeting, when things were a little calmer, some audience members asked why board members would think they'd have to hire Hyde now for the 2009-2010 school year, when they haven't even taken up a search for a new superintendent and had plenty of time to find one.
Most of the anger was directed at the board.
"You on the board, in my opinion, are failing me," said Christianne Martin. She said the board was wrong to cancel two superintendent-search study sessions scheduled for December.
Drake Evans, a former board member, told board members to start behaving themselves. He told members to be nice to Mitchell, who has been at odds with the rest of the board because he has wanted a full, nationwide search for a superintendent involving outside help.
"Knock it off," Evans said.
Kendra Thompson of the Bremerton chapter of the NAACP said, "Our hope is that personal (conflict doesn't) distract from the work that has been done and the work that needs to be done."
Terri Walker, Hyde's former administrative assistant who alleged retaliation by Hyde after she questioned some of Hyde's actions, said the board should work to avoid the "appearance" of wrongdoing. Keeping Hyde around would perpetuate the belief that Hyde's retirement and rehiring was preplanned, she said.
Nobody in the crowded room argued the Hyde has not done a good job in her seven years as superintendent. But the fact that she is now receiving both retirement pay and salary, although legal, drew strong criticism.
"In the public's perception, this is double-dipping," Scott Rahm said
"While it may be legally right, I do not believe it is morally right," Drnjevic said.
Some in the audience called for the board to immediately hire Hyde.
"I urge you to keep Dr. Hyde," Steve Rice said.
Top staff members said Hyde is the best superintendent they've ever worked for.
Tempers rose as the meeting progressed.
Galloway apologized to Hyde for negative media.
Mitchell's "That's BULL ...!" outburst followed discussion about a Dec. 11 executive session in which Mitchell alleged he was encouraged to resign.
Voices rose among board members. Boyd denied that ousting Mitchell was the purpose of the executive session.
Boyd reminded Mitchell that he had earlier chastised Hyde for not giving the board more notice when she announced her retirement last spring.
It should have been done in private, Boyd said.
Boyd turned to Hyde and said, "I feel awful that you were treated that way. It should have never happened."
Hyde nodded.
"So what happened in that session was a reaction to some very, very poor manners," Boyd said of the Dec. 11 executive session.
Before the meeting exploded and burned, Collins asked audience members whether they were even interested in following any process in the evening.
"Do we need to boot (Hyde) out so every can be happy?" she asked angrily.

Former Journal editor, owner dies at 70
Ronald D. McMahan, a one-time newspaper delivery boy who became editor and owner of the historic and award-winning daily newspaper The Knoxville Journal, died Tuesday morning in Naples, Fla. He was 70.
McMahan was named editor of the Journal in 1981 when Gannett Co. Inc. bought the paper from the Roy N. Lotspeich family. He held the post until 1986 when he and a partner bought the paper from Gannett. In 1988, the pair sold the paper to Persis Corp. The paper, which traced its roots to the mid-1870s, folded in 1991. It has since been resurrected as a weekly newspaper.
McMahan and his wife, Wanda, retired in 1998 to Naples, where they both pursued their interest in golf. He had been battling cancer since last summer and died in a hospice, according to a family spokeswoman.
"Ron's death certainly closes a brilliant chapter in Knoxville's journalistic history," said Harry Moskos, retired News Sentinel editor. "While we were competitors, there certainly was respect for his vigorous leadership at the Journal and for the role his newspaper played in the development of our community. May his memory be eternal."
"Ron had a special way with people, and as a result was able to excel as a journalist, a public servant and as a news executive," said John Seigenthaler, former editor and publisher of The Tennessean. "Those who were his friends - and I was one of them - knew it. But he never suffered fools."
When he purchased the Journal, McMahan said: "A newspaper should reflect the community's attitudes, lifestyles and hopes. It should enjoy and be proud of a community when it does good and reflect and report accurately when an injustice is occurring."
He also said that buying the newspaper he had delivered as a boy was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.
McMahan was born in the West View community of Knoxville, the only child of Clyde and Nina McMahan. His father was a comber operator for Cherokee Textile Mills for 45 years. His mother was a longtime sales clerk at Miller's Department Store.
McMahan graduated in 1956 from West High School, where he was a standout athlete. His first job was as a copy boy at The Knoxville Journal, and he became a general assignment reporter there in 1958 while he attended the University of Tennessee. For the next 13 years, he was a reporter for the Chattanooga Times, The Knoxville Journal and the Chattanooga Post.
As a reporter for the Post, McMahan exposed parties by police officers in which guns were fired as part of the celebration. He received death threats, and an FBI investigation found the threats came from police squad rooms. At the Journal, he went undercover with a hidden camera to expose all-night bootlegging establishments. The reports influenced passage of legislation allowing liquor by the drink in Knoxville.
McMahan covered the U.S. Senate campaign in which Howard H. Baker Jr. became the first popularly elected Republican senator from Tennessee.
In 1969, McMahan left the newspaper business to become director of information for the Appalachian Regional Commission in Washington, D.C. A year later, he joined Baker's staff as press secretary and advised Baker on public policy and campaign issues. He was at Baker's side when Baker and Sen. Sam Ervin chaired the Senate Watergate hearings.
"Ron McMahan was unique, he was my friend, and we will miss him," Baker said.
When McMahan returned from Washington to become editor of The Knoxville Journal, the newspaper had lost circulation in 10 of the 11 previous years. Three years later, it was the fastest-growing newspaper in the state. Among McMahan's innovations was the regular use of color photos on the front page to boost single-copy sales. The Journal became known for its investigative reporting. A Journal series with The Tennessean in Nashville on the Butcher bank collapse won several major journalism awards. In 1983, the Tennessee Press Association recognized the Journal as the best newspaper in the state.
"Ron McMahan was a good friend of mine for 40 years and strongly supported me in my first race for Congress when he was editor," U.S. Rep. John Duncan Jr. said. "He even worked part time for me for a brief period and gave me much good advice. He was smart and loyal, and if he was for you he was really for you and if he was against you he was really against you."
McMahan also appointed the first female UT football beat reporter, forcing UT to create interview facilities that allowed both sexes equal access to players, and he appointed one of the first female city editors in Knoxville, Cynthia Moxley, now co-president of public relations firm Moxley Carmichael.
"Ron was a reporter's editor," Moxley said. "He believed in hiring well-educated, aggressive reporters and then turning them loose to do their jobs."
Following his newspaper career, McMahan and partner Bill Vaughan owned a Knoxville public and government relations company that bore their names. They sold the company in 1998 to McMahan's son, David McMahan, and it continues today as McMahan Winstead, a prominent Nashville lobbying firm.
"Behind that gruff voice and personality was a guy who had a big heart and helped many people," Vaughan said. "What you saw in Ron was what you got. He was very competitive, strong-willed, and never hesitated to say what he thought to anyone."
In addition to his wife, McMahan is survived by sons and daughters-in-law David and Kara McMahan and Mike and Aimee McMahan, all of Nashville, and daughter and son-in-law Vandi McMahan Bellamy and Will Bellamy of Knoxville and their mother, Evadine Ownby McMahan of Knoxville. He has five grandchildren: Morgan McMahan, 21; Madison McMahan, 17; Stroud McMahan, 11; Joe McMahan, 8; and Ann Clark Bellamy, 4.
Funeral services are private.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Ronald D. McMahan Journalism Scholarship Fund, 600 Andy Holt Tower, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN 37996.

A unionist has been arrested on a picket line in Auckland during a strike affecting distribution centres supplying nearly half of New Zealand's supermarkets.
About 600 Progressive Enterprises workers in Auckland, Palmerston North and Christchurch walked off the job on Friday, in support of a nationwide collective agreement and an 8% pay rise. They have been picketing outside supply
The centres supply Woolworths, Foodtown and Countdown supermarkets.
National Distribution Union's secretary Laila Harre says she does not know why union negotiator Stan Renwick was arrested.
She says the arrest will harden the resolve of workers who will meet on Monday to decide whether to continue their action.
The strike was extended until Monday following the indefinite suspension of 50 people in Palmerston North.
The union says the strike is having an impact on supermarket shelves, with some goods in short supply at Foodtown, Woolworths and Countdown stores.
The company has been unavailable for comment, but earlier said it was business as usual.

The safety is there to prevent the weapon from being fired if dropped or bashed. Glocks are engineered for professionals who need a different balance of safety vs speed. There are three safties integrated into the trigger mechanism. In that regard, Glocks are very fail-safe. If you don't pull the trigger, it just wont shoot. The odds of a branch or something like it accidentally pulling the trigger are quite long.
Did you buy that weapon at Wade's? God I hate that place. Lots of angry, divorced counter-strike nerds spending their Microsoft salaries on H&K G-11s. That enterprise caters to a deep level of egotistical stupidity.
As far as the video goes:
It is proof positive that the DEA and most federal agents are a bunch of arrogant, stupid cunts. Assholes who wave guns in front of kids talking about two-short and fiddy cent need to be fucking fired and castrated. Then that asswipe has the goddamn nerve to bring out an M-4. Every time I see that video I want to put that man out of my misery with a crowbar. What a stupid, ignorant piece of ****.

I believe they make heavier triggers for Glocks as well as a thumb safety for those that want. These things are so subjective. In all fairness, I'm not a Glock fan either.
I'm not aware of any, but it would be interesting to see the relative percentage of accidental discharges involved with Glocks vs. 1911s, for example. In addition, it would be nice to see some sort of statistic examining if the lag and potential difficulty of flipping a thumb safety actually makes a meaningful difference during a confrontation.

Meh. Assuming you holster it properly, it's also conductive to a real fast draw and shoot.

The Santa Cruz Nomad has been the defining all-mountain bike since its release years ago. As a flagship model for Santa Cruz (and our best selling mountain bike model to date), it's a wonder they even considered a redesign. But that's what Santa Cruz does time and time again. No sitting on their hands here, folks -- if they know there's a better way, they're gonna find it, and they're gonna do it. And nothing signals the change (and confidence) in materials philosophy at Santa Cruz more than the release of the Santa Cruz Nomad Carbon.
With the Nomad Carbon, Santa Cruz achieves their strongest, stiffest bike to date -- yes, stronger than the V10 and stiffer than the Blur LT Carbon -- and does so while shaving 3/4 pound from its chassis. Broken down in simple terms, you can have your 160mm of adept all-mountain travel in a package as trim as many cross-country frames. The lightness of this new Nomad makes itself felt when you flick it through the sinuous corners of your favorite singletrack. And when you spy a good-looking trailside hip jump, you'll be able to whip it effortlessly in mid-air to line up your landing.
Santa Cruz employs a one-piece construction technique to create the front triangle. This allowed their designers the freedom to incorporate the Nomad's signature swoopy design and nontraditional shaping of the tubes. One look at the head tube junction and you'll see that it was worth the effort. At this particular spot, the three tubes are almost at once squared and rounded. And the arcing scallop that defines the angle between the top and down tubes shows just how patient they were with the shape. After all, why settle for tough as hell, if you can have tough and beautiful in the same package.
Possibly the best aspect of the one-piece construction is that all of the junctions have continuous fibers that run around and through the joints, then out into the long tubes. The homogenous nature of this technique makes for increased load distribution and for better impact absorption. The stresses of normal and even abnormal riding are spread across a greater area of the frame. Let's call this stronger and tougher, shall we? But don't let its lightness fool you into thinking it's just for coffee shop rides. The Nomad Carbon is meant to shred. Uphill. Downhill. Around the hill. And you won't find any doo-dads riveted and glued onto the Nomad Carbon either. All of the suspension pivot mounts, cable/hose guides, ISCG tabs, and the full carbon dropouts are molded into the structure from the onset. All of these details create special challenges during design, tooling, and construction, but again, when you lay your hands and eyes on a Santa Cruz carbon frame, you'll know for sure that it was worth it.
The Nomad Carbon uses the same VPP rear suspension as its aluminum sibling. Its carbon fiber upper link and alloy lower link rotate in opposite directions to shape the arc of the migrating virtual pivot point so that it geometrically balances rider weight shift, chain pull force, and bump forces throughout the travel. The result is a bike that pedals without unwanted suspension compression, yet will react to trail input, even as you grind up a hill. And when you descend on it, you'll ride in a suspended pocket, with plenty of positive and negative travel that will ensure that you can have ample traction and control over bumps and through ruts and holes. And remember, traction equals confidence and control and that, in turn, means safety and speed. You can have it all with the Nomad Carbon.
The carbon fiber rear swingarm is attached to the main triangle via the two links. The oversize 15mm pivots use aluminum axles with locking collets, and sealed cartridge bearings make for a bike that has great lateral stiffness, without the prospect of creaking or loose joints. The lower link has easily-serviceable grease ports for quick maintenance (grease gun and grease included), ensuring your suspension will stay smooth and responsive just like new. Leaving no detail overlooked, the Nomad Carbon features titanium pivot and shock hardware to shave every last gram.
The 67 degree head angle strikes a perfect balance between slow speed steerability on technical trails and high speed stability on loose descents. The Nomad Carbon will accommodate 1.5" steerer tubes and headsets for supreme front end stiffness. And while the geometry is based on a 160mm front fork, feel free to install a 180mm single crown fork. The Nomad Carbon will be even more inspiring on really nasty terrain. ISCG 05 tabs make for easy chainguide or HammerSchmidt installation, and it has an ISO standard rear brake mount and accepts rotors up to 203mm.
The Santa Cruz Nomad Carbon is available in Black/gold, Gloss Green/lime, Matte Black/blue, and White/black. It comes equipped with a large volume Fox RP23 rear air shock. If you would prefer, you can get it with a Fox DHX RC4 Coil (+$216). It requires a 30.9mm seatpost, and 34.9mm top swing/top pull front derailleur. The bottom bracket shell is 73mm wide, and it uses a standard 135mm rear hub. It comes with a woven downtube protector that is reported to be needed for cosmetic security only as the downtube is made of carbon and kevlar, and is thick enough to wave off serious abuse on its own, and it has guides for a remote seatpost cable. A replaceable derailleur hanger will protect the carbon dropout from crash damage. It has a two year warranty against manufacturing defects, while the bearings are guaranteed for life.
US Santa Cruz dealers are prohibited from shipping Santa Cruz bicycles outside of the United States.
Please Note: Due to cable routing and space considerations, current SRAM front derailleurs will not work with the Nomad Carbon. For 2 x 10 drivetrains, we suggest using a Shimano XTR Double Front Derailleur FD-M985. For 3 x 10 drivetrains, we suggest the XTR Triple Front Derailleur FD-M980.
