Hanging out in Hannover, Germany
CeBIT 2008
At CeBIT 2008, the world's biggest computer fair, popular topics included Green IT, mini-PCs, and open source.
Going "green" was already a popular topic before CeBIT, but this computer fair emphasized the green theme with green flashing lights and green clothing for pavilion staffers (Figure 1). Hype or no hype, all the major league vendors jumped on the bandwagon, with Fujitsu Siemens' zero watt display, Primergy's low-power industrial standard servers, and BladeFrame's 400 systems running RHEL 5.0, SLES 10, or Windows.
Lenovo's Marc Fischer presented a "Green IT Survey," showing that IT managers in Europe are willing to pay more for environmentally friendly hardware. Sun Microsystems even arrived with a completely solar-powered datacenter dubbed Blackbox.
This year's CeBIT saw its eighth LinuxPark, a long-standing tradition in a fast-moving industry, which included talks on environmentally friendly IT, security, migration, and Software as a Service (SaaS). According to CeBIT organizers, "There is hardly a special event at CeBIT that has developed so rapidly as LinuxPark." In cooperation with Linux New Media AG – parent company of Linux Pro Magazine and Linux Magazine – and leading industry associations, the CeBIT organizers are working on a new Cebit track for next year that will feature open source topics.
Rosemarie Schuster, CEO of Linux New Media, said, "The rapid development of the topic in the past few years has made it quite clear how important it is to take open source into consideration in overall CeBIT planning."
Getting Small
The Asus Eee PC holds a top spot on many attendee shopping lists. The 900 Version, which was presented at CeBIT 2008 (Figure 1), features a larger display (8.9 inches), more RAM, and a larger solid-state disk.
Taiwan's Linpus Technologies exhibited a Linux distribution optimized for notebooks and ultraportable PCs (UPCs) that will also run on the Asus Eee PC. Mobile Intel CPUs and the C7 low-energy processor by Via are also supported. Linpus Linux 9.3 will also support 64-bit processors, such as the the AMD Athlon 64 and Intel Itanium, and it complies with the LSB 2.0 standard.
openSUSE 11.1 Feeds New SLES
Volker Smid, President and General Manager of Novell Europe, and Holger Dyroff, Vice President of SUSE Linux Enterprise product management, expanded on their partner-centric company philosophy for CeBIT visitors. Novell has won over major players such as SAP, Intel, Accenture, and Microsoft with two more partners anticipated in the coming weeks. Novell is cooperating with Microsoft on an interoperability lab. The first items on the roadmap for the lab are running Windows 2008 Server as a virtualized guest on SLES and the complete integration of Novell products with Microsoft's Active Directory.
Novell also plans to connect worlds on the office front, performing loss-free conversion of Microsoft Office documents – including documents in the new OOXML format – to the Open Document Format, including all macros. The OOXML Translator is scheduled for a final release in the first half of 2009.

Stilwell calls it quits, ends 16-year career at helm of Lee County government
LEE COUNTY - Updated 5:30 p.m.
Lee County commissioners swept County Manager Don Stilwell out of office Tuesday, replacing him on an interim basis with Human Services Director Karen Hawes.
Commissioners accepted Stilwell's resignation after he agreed to take a $152,983.95 severance package and promised not to sue for wrongful termination.
The alternative, commissioners had said, was firing for cause and the possibility of no severance at all.
Commissioners offered Stilwell the choice a week ago. The final fall of the longest serving top boss in Lee County history started a week before that when e-mails released after a Federal Bureau of Investigation records request turned up sexually-explicit pictures and videos.
Commissioners said one of the first things Hawes will have to do is look into the e-mail habits of Deputy County Manager Bill Hammond and assistant county managers Holly Schwartz and Pete Winton.
Those three all received and sent emails similar to those that sent their boss packing. They were also passed over when Hawes was appointed.
Stilwell's top assistants won't be the only ones being looked at. Commissioners also voted 3-2 to have County Attorney David Owen look into whether Commissioner Brian Bigelow violated the county charter when he spoke to Schwartz and Hammond on Monday.
Chairman Ray Judah said Bigelow intimidated the employees and asked them to resign. Bigelow said he merely asked them to consider what's best for the county and whether they should attend Tuesday's meeting.
"The problem is still at the apex of county management," Bigelow said. "There's still an elephant in the middle of the room." Judah pointed out the county charter does not allow an individual commissioner to direct employees or involve himself in personnel issues past those of the few — like the county manager — who contract directly with the board.
"I agree," Commissioner Bob Janes said. "We can't have a county commissioner running around telling employees they should do this or that. It's highly improper and must be dealt with."
But Bigelow insisted the county management problem is not yet solved.
"I don't know for instance how we're going to keep one of these employees names on a county facility," Bigelow said.
The Minnesota Twins hold spring training at Hammond Stadium at the Lee County Sports Complex. It was named for Bill Hammond to recognize his work in bringing the Twins to town.
"What's really amazing is you're judge, jury and executioner," Judah said to Bigelow.
"Absolutely," Janes echoed.
Judah asked that the board direct Owen to investigate, but Commissioner Frank Mann said that would simply prolong the county's pain.
"I think you're going to drag this out terribly," Mann said. "We have come so close to putting this painful issue behind us and now we shoot ourselves in the foot, the head and the mouth."
Janes argued the board has "gone overboard" accommodating Bigelow.
"It speaks to no administrative experience," he said. "Never supervising a large group. He knows nothing about it. He simply cannot come in and intimidate people and simply with innuendo and no facts. He has to learn."
Mann said all commissioners have come close to the line — directing employees what to do — and some have crossed it. He said he felt Bigelow had crossed the line by talking to Schwartz and Hammond, but that no purpose would be served by pursuing it.
The vote for the investigation was 3-2 with Mann and Bigelow on the short end. Bigelow tried to bring it back up, but Judah would have none of it, gavelling the meeting closed.
Hawes agreed to accept the interim manager's job, but said she is not interested in it full-time.
"I do not want the job," she said.
It's no surprise, Janes said.
"Nobody wants to be here with a couple of nutbags," he said. "One at each side of the dais."
Bigelow sits at one end of the dais, Mann at the other.
Stilwell did not attend Tuesday's meeting. He was in his office but refused to speak with reporters.
Commissioners got a surprise Tuesday morning when Owen said the severance, three months of salary and benefits that had been pegged at about $70,000, would actually be $152,983.95.
That's because when commissioners discussed the termination agreement a week ago, they referred to "full benefits."
Stilwell got substantially more than just his $248,000 annual salary as compensation. The county paid for a leased car and for insurance. Stilwell also gets his accrued sick and vacation time.
"My understanding of three months severance did not include a car and insurance," Commissioner Tammy Hall said. "I find it offensive to have to pay for his car for three months. That's not the motion I thought was made."
Hall voted against the termination agreement for that reason, she said.
Hall also said that if Hawes finds Hammond, Schwartz or Winton has sent the same kind of e-mails Stilwell did, she'll expect them to be gone, too.
"I would assume Karen would terminate immediately," she said. "Anyone on that floor who's done what Don Stilwell did, she would terminate."
Stilwell was hired in 1993, starting with the county in July. He was the ninth top boss in Lee County history.
POSTED 10:30 a.m.
Lee County commissioners name Human Services director Karen Hawes as interim county manager.
POSTED 10:15 a.m.
Lee County commissioners have accepted the resignation of County Manager Don Stilwell, giving him a severance package worth over $150,000.
Commissioner Tammy Hall voted against the agreement, saying the severance was too much.
Commissioners are now discussing Human Services director Karen Hawes as interim county manager.
POSTED 10:08 a.m.
With a motion on the table to accept Lee County Manager Don Stilwell's resignation on the table, commissioners are balking at the severance pay.
Commissioners offered three months severance a week ago if the top boss would resign freely, with termination for cause and no severance at all hanging over his head.
Three months salary and insurance is around $70,000. With benefits such as a leased car and accrued sick and vacation time the number hits $150,000.
"Full benefits? I don't think it's right," Commissioner Tammy Hall said. "I'm not going to support three months of an automobile at taxpayers expense."
POSTED 9:55 a.m.
Lee County Manager Don Stilwell signed the termination agreement offered by county commissioners, and is resigning this morning.
The county will pay $152,983.95 to get rid of him. Under contract terms and with accrued sick and vacation time and other compensation, three months of severance is worth that much.
Commissioners offered Stilwell the deal a week ago after his sexually explicit emails were discovered in a search.
Stilwell will receive three months severance pay. He faced firing for cause, with no severance, if he refused the deal.
He was felled by racy e-mails discovered after the FBI made a records request. News agencies dogging the agencies' steps found the e-mails.
Stilwell is not in Lee County commission chambers this morning as commissioners wade through ceremonial resolutions and wait to take up the issue of their county manager's resignation.
Commissioners a week ago gave Stilwell until today to resign and accept three months severance or face being fired with no severance at all. They will vote later this morning on whether to accept the resignation
Stilwell will leave the position he began in 1993.
The e-mails came to light in April after the FBI made a public records request for them from four county officials: Stilwell, Deputy County Manager Bill Hammond and Assistant County Managers Pete Winton and Holly Schwartz, each of whom was forwarded one or more of the inappropriate e-mails.
The incomplete review of those e-mails has turned up mostly work-related communications from the county accounts of Public Works Director Jim Lavender, Transportation Director Scott Gilbertson and transportation project manager Don DeBerry.
Stilwell's contained some sexual content, including explicit e-mails he passed along to subordinates and others. He later apologized for the e-mails.

That also describes Shen Hao but they ship Fed Ex.Originally Posted by bobfowler
They sell an adapter to fit RB backs which I guess then fits any graflok back. Would seem the cheapest/simplest way for anybody wanting to use RB backs would be to get an adapter. Maybe Mpex or Badger carry them. At least I think that's what the "RB67 4*5" they sell is for.

The NBA Christmas schedule is filled with exciting games for the tip-off of the season, but Los Angeles Clipper fans will be looking forward to the nightcap. Ever since the Clippers acquired point-guard Chris Paul from the Hornets, the fans have visions of playoffs for this often embarrassing franchise.
FREE PICKS ALL SEASON LONG: Bookmark Bookie Blitz for the latest news and free picks on the NBA.
The odds for NBA Christmas Daywere released with the Clippers as 2.5 point road favorites over the Golden State Warriors. If that wasn't odd enough, the Clippers also received the public backing with 85% of the early money coming in on L.A. That coupled with the preseason victory over the Lakers has pushed this betting line to -3 in some places.
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry suffered a right ankle injury in preseason, but he should be able to suit up for the Christmas day clash with the Clippers. If not rookie Charles Jenkins brings a physical presence with a defensive intensity to the position that new coach Mark Jackson has lauded up to this point.
"I thought he was very good," Jackson said. "He paid attention to what we asked him to do, I thought he ran his basketball team, he defended very well. He just did some very good things on both sides of the ball."
The Warriors have quietly nabbed swingman Brandon Rush and this gives the Warriors much need depth and versatility. The moves that the Clippers have made in the offseason were much "louder".
Chris Paul joins Blake Griffin as the main acquisition of the offseason, but not the only one. LA also landed Caron Butler and claimed veteran Chauncey Billups off of waivers. The Clippers are making all the right moves to make this team a contender but don't look for an immediate impact. Like some of the other teams that made a big splash in free agency, chemistry will take some time.
Preseason is a different type of game than regular season. It is a less defensive game with less preparation needed. The Clippers are being over hyped and that has changed this line dramatically. The Clippers will be a vastly improved team this season, but they don't deserve to be a road favorite to open the season.
NBA Christmas Picks Against the Spread: Golden State Warriors +3

"Bought these in oct 2014 and by apr 2015 the sole on the right shoe split across the ball of my foot. The shoe is not very comforatable as the bottom edge of the steel toe can be felt through the insole and causes a callous to build up on the bottom of my foot shich is painful to walk on."

"I had just purchased a pair of NB 608's in the exact size I purchased these shoes. The 608's fit awesome! Even taking the "steel toe" into consideration - these aren't even close. Too short. Toes are tight to the end of the shoe. Width is tolerable, but not the same as the 608 comfort. I will reorder a larger size/width and follow with a new review. I LOVE NB and its the only shoe I have worn for 40 yrs. Dissapointed in the sizing on this one though!"

"I purchased these even after reading the reviews. I have worn NB 12 4E size shoes for decades. To paraphrase Sheldon Copper, "On what planet are these 4E sized shoe?" I wish I had the means to measure the inside of the shoe, but I would have to say that the 4E would be closer to a 2E. I also noted that the protective toe cap rubbed the top of both feet. It felt as if they toe cap was angled back towards my heel. I love the NB brand and the shoes that are made in the USA. I hope the marketing department takes note of these comments."

Twitter, meantime, encouraged its users not to share videos of the brutal killing by the Islamic State (IS) and, using the hashtag #ISISmediablackout, it urged people instead to share photos of the smiling American photojournalist before his capture in Syria in 2012.
Dick Costolo, the social media site's chief executive, said it was taking action against accounts, which had spread the video, noting: "We have been and are actively suspending accounts as we discover them related to this graphic imagery."
Thousands of people, including celebrities and scores of fellow journalists, took to social media to urge people not to give the terrorist group the oxygen of publicity.
Paul Conroy, a photographer for the Sunday Times, who was injured in Syria in 2012 by a shell that killed reporter Marie Colvin, said people spreading the video were doing IS's work for it.
"In many ways, the passing around of these pictures and the videos of James is doing what these people - these murderers - want you to do," he warned.
Actress Mia Farrow was among those who urged their Twitter followers to shun the footage, which showed the death of the 40-year-old.
She tweeted: "Blackout on group that murdered James Foley. Don't share video. Give them nothing. #RespectJames Foley,"
Earlier, the Metropolitan Police said: "Viewing, downloading or disseminating extremist material within the UK may constitute an offence under terrorism legislation."

If you're born deaf, the debate about cochlear implants, children and deaf cultural rights will touch your life in some way.
One day, after she had asked me for at least the twentieth time, I turned around and asked her if she was deaf.
Clarke remains a most literal champion of the underdog; her present pet reportedly is a deaf and blind pug named Jack.
Old English deaf "deaf," also "empty, barren," specialized from Proto-Germanic *daubaz (cf. Old Saxon dof, Old Norse daufr, Old Frisian daf, Dutch doof "deaf," German taub, Gothic daufs "deaf, insensate"), from PIE dheubh-, which was used to form words meaning "confusion, stupefaction, dizziness" (cf. Greek typhlos "blind).
The word was pronounced to rhyme with reef until 18c. Deaf-mute is from 1837, after French sourd-muet. Deaf-mutes were sought after in 18c.-19c. Britain as fortune-tellers. Deaf as an adder (Old English) is from Psalms lviii:5.

If you happen to be handy with SQL you can make changes to a specification and adjust existing fields or add new fields by executing SQL statements against these same tables. This can be much easier than recreating a specification from scratch.
5 Responses to MS Access Import/Export Specifications
Great article. I needed to have more control over importing Excel spreadhseets into Access 2010 and TransferSpreadsheet doesn't help. Based on your article an some additional research, I ended up using the ImportExportSpecification. Here are a couple of handy little routins to customize the importexport XML once you have created one using " Save Steps".
'For modifying the name And/Or the XML Public Sub fixImportSpecs(myTable As String, strFind As String, strRepl As String) Dim mySpec As ImportExportSpecification Set mySpec = CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Item(myTable) mySpec.XML = Replace(mySpec.XML, strFind, strRepl) Set mySpec = Nothing End Sub Public Sub MyExcelChangeName(OldName As String, NewName As String) Dim mySpec As ImportExportSpecification Dim myNewSpec As ImportExportSpecification Set mySpec = CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Item(OldName) CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Add NewName, mySpec.XML mySpec.Delete Set mySpec = Nothing Set myNewSpec = Nothing End Sub 'to run the import spec from vba code Public Sub MyExcelTransfer(myTempTable As String, myPath As String) Dim mySpec As ImportExportSpecification Dim myNewSpec As ImportExportSpecification Set mySpec = CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Item(myTempTable) CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Add "TemporaryImport", mySpec.XML Set myNewSpec = CurrentProject.ImportExportSpecifications.Item("TemporaryImport") myNewSpec.XML = Replace(myNewSpec.XML, "\\MyComputer\ChangeThis", myPath) myNewSpec.Execute myNewSpec.Delete Set mySpec = Nothing Set myNewSpec = Nothing End Sub
Hope this helps someone. cheers.
Thanks so much for this code. I do not have VBA experience but this sounds like what I am looking for. After playing with it, I can not seem to get it to run. Can you maybe direct me as to what parts of the code I need to change with my database's locations?
The saved import I want to edit is called "TwitterPersonalBackup"
It is a pull from twitter's website and I am looking to change the URL.
I have a Query which is building the next URL to search. Is it possible to have the new URL change based on that Query?
Thanks so much!
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the above info. I was finding out how to save the SPECS in SQL (TOAD), when we want to import the text data into a table in SQL. (we do have a import/export SPECS in Access, do we have samething in toad?)
I was just trying to save the SPECS, like we do in the ACCESS in SQL. Please help you if have any idea.
Thanks for the MS Access Import/Export Specifications
hint, I had to reconstruct one of these from an old Access database and it's just what I needed.
BTW, we have a similar background in age and technology, it was fun to read yours. I started out with the same computer! These days are managing .NET with Oracle and SQL during the day and teaching classes at night at a technical college.
Nice looking web site.

Bernadina has been BABIP-unlucky today
This post is BABIP-lucky.
I personally just can't wait to see Wilson Valdez pitch one of the later innings.
ut oh
The malodorous stench of "walkoff" permeates the crisp April air.
This post is BABIP-lucky.
Why in the HELL would we let Arredondo pitch 2 innings, we got lucky with the 1st good one, why push it???
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be! -Bret Hart
Big strike zone has disappeared

Been calling that a strike all day
It's 0-2 on a Reds hitter right now.
No one expects the butterfly
a strike - THROW ONE.
Reds record when attended in 2011: 0-1

A consistently good shoe!
I've used Asics running shoes for years, and the GT-2000 model is perfect for me. The fit is outstanding and the durability is great. The only thing I don't like is the tendency for the shoe to wear out on the top where my toe is...if they could make the end-cap a bit bigger, the shoe would merit 6 stars!

Great price. Nice shoe

Great Shoes but Shoelaces are Too Short
I suffer from Fibromyalgia and need shoes with support and cushioning. These ASIC Running Shoes do the trick. I find that the shoes are true to size and hold up well. The one major gripe is the shoelaces are too short and it is very difficult to get them tied!!! I would return them, but they provide the support and cushioning I need so I guess I will need to get a new pair of shoelaces. Also this is the 3rd pair of ASICs in this series that I've had.

In 1949 Kihachiro Onitsuka was manufacturing basketball shoes in his living room. Little did he know that he would eventually have created a world-renowned brand for runners and other athletes looking for quality and comfort. ASICS™ is an acronym for the Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano", which translates to "A sound mind in a sound body." And that is exactly what Asics is striving for.
To create top-performing running apparel, running shoes and other running necessities, Asics opened the Research Institute of Sports Science. In Kobe, Japan, this site is where technology and innovation go hand-in-hand to create breakthroughs in running clothes and running shoes. With over 45,000 square feet of space for testing, Asics studies everything from the movements of the human body to the durability of their running gear with a 350m all-weather running track.
When it comes to quality and "what's best for the body", Asics goes above and beyond. When Asics athletes visit the facility, Asics creates tailor-made running clothes and shoes that work with that athlete's body. From this research, Asics is able to enhance the running clothes and running shoes that they create for all athletes. Asics takes every opportunity to better their running clothes, so the athletes can better themselves.

Though currently a "beta," computer-speak for "unfinished test version," Safari is impressive software. Apple said a final version will be available later this year.
Safari puts the Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple squarely at odds with Microsoft Corp., since once finished, it will displace Internet Explorer as the installed browser on new Macs. So Apple must have a compelling reason for doing such a thing, right?
Perhaps Apple wants to establish more independence from the behemoth based in Redmond, Wash.
"Microsoft continues to weave its tentacles around the industry -- and it's not surprising that some companies are trying to break free," said Roger Kay, an analyst with IDC, a research firm based in Framingham, Mass.
Or, maybe Apple plans to integrate the OS X-only Safari into its other software offerings, like iTunes and iPhoto, if not with the Mac operating system itself.
"As they control more and more of their applications, the Internet becomes more of an ingrained function," said Brett Miller, an analyst with A.G. Edwards Inc. in St. Louis.
In particular, Miller sees Safari becoming an Internet portal for other applications. A multimedia editing program, for instance, could use it to transparently fetch and integrate such content as music or video.
"You'll still feel like you're in your home application," Miller said. "The Internet will be embedded in the application."
If nothing else, an in-house Web browser gives Apple control over one of the personal computer's most fundamental roles, interacting with the Internet, which dovetails neatly with the company's overall strategy of controlling the entire user experience.
During his speech last week, Jobs said the biggest reason Apple developed its own browser was speed. Mac users long have endured sluggish Web surfing (on both Netscape and Internet Explorer) relative to browser performance on Windows PCs.
Jobs cited benchmarks showing that Safari renders pages three times faster than the latest Mac version of Internet Explorer.
In admittedly unscientific tests -- on my home Mac (an 867 megahertz G4 "Quicksilver" desktop tower loaded with over 1 gigabyte of memory and sucking data through a high-speed Comcast Internet connection), Apple's boasts appear valid.
Safari consistently whipped Internet Explorer by large margins, if not always by a factor of three.
It took Explorer, for instance, 7.25 seconds to render the SunSpot home page on the first visit, and about 3.75 seconds on subsequent visits (browsers store pages in a "cache" on the hard drive to accelerate return visits). Safari's numbers were 4 seconds for the first visit, and less than 2 seconds for each subsequent visit.
When compared with five other Mac OS X browsers, however, Safari's speed margin is decidedly slimmer. For example, the speed difference is negligible between Safari and another beta browser, Chimera 0.6, an offshoot of Netscape Inc.'s open-source Mozilla project and a favorite among Mac power users since last spring.
Aside from speed, Jobs said Safari sought to offer innovation in the area of Web browsers -- and, surprisingly, it does.
One such Safari feature is SnapBack, a button in the Web address field that, after you've burrowed several links deep into a particular Web site, returns you to the page from which you started.


text: Galaxy Tab Gets Price Cut on Verizon David W 1 January, 2011 16 Comments The Galaxy Tab was one of the most talked about Android devices this year. Love it or hate it, the Tab changed the game by being the first tablet from one of the big manufacturers in the industry and offered on all of the big four carriers. Following T-Mobile's lead, Verizon has just reduced the Galaxy Tab's price by $100 and thrown in $60 worth of free movies from either the Samsung Hub or Blockbuster. This price drop seems to only be available in Verizon Wireless stores as a quick look on Verizonwireless.com still shows the price of $599. While the reduced price of $499 is still high, one thing to consider is that this is an off contract price. Droid-Life, who provided the image above, is reporting they have confirmed the in store discount through two sources and customers who have purchased the device in the last 14 days can still return it to the store for a refund of $100. Is this price drop enough to sway you into buying a Tab? Sound off in the comments to let us know if you'll be running out in 2011 to buy the Tab from Verizon. source: Droid-Life South69_dallas Still 2 much drop another 100 off and I'm there! http://www.facebook.com/vesselin.obreshkov Vesselin Obreshkov Umm $499 for one of the best tablets currently out there ain't that bad without contract or anything. Cheaper than most current phones off contract… Pinballbrian Its still way overpriced – Ill hold off and see what the Ipad2 is really all about. Anonymous iPad 2 is what the iPad 1 should have been…usb support,expansion slots and webcam..instead Apple knew Apple fan boys/girls would rush to buy the first one regardless of the fact that these basic features were missing and will run to buy the new one even if they have the first one…Its Apple toying with its customers because they know they can do anything they want. If consumers were smart they would refuse to buy such an expensive product lacking such basic features in protest and apple would have to change their strategy and release finalized working products. Instead they know that Apple fan boys/girls will run and buy any dish apple serves regardless if its ready or not!!! Ianandamy Its a big pos I bought one and am returning it tomorrow it is laggy as s**t even if you flash it up. Xylomaphoner It's still way overpriced for the UI lag it has. I love android, but to have to root a device off the bat just t keep up with the type of performance being offered by apple is somewhat ridiculous. I'll wait until the slew of tablets come out this year before making a purchase! Anonymous You do not root the device to get apple style performance!!! You root the device to open it up to several other enhancements and customizations. The whole point of android is its open platform. For now Archos 101…best value for the price (although I still insist a tablet..iPad or not is a waste of money…get a tablet netbook). Xylomaphoner The statement posted wasn't meant to imply that the ONLY reason to root is to get better performance, although it is one of them. There should be no need to root a brand new device to get the same type of performance another device gets. Rooting gives amazing freedom to the user. Unfortunately, the Galaxy Tab requires rooting to get rid of the bloatware (including the sluggish UI) and get a decent response from the device. Once rooted and freed from all the stupid extras, the device should perform how it was meant to, and even better if overclocked. I'm going to wait until I find an android tab (or dual boot tab) that can perform as well as the iPad, or until the price on the Galaxy Tab drops to $200-$300…then root it and overclock it! LOL Anonymous Ive tested the archos 101 8gb model…299 on amazon and 10 times better than the ipad….. Usb port.. Hdmi out Micro Sd card slot webcam Flash with froyo 2.2 1ghz cpu Android Among the few things that make it better than an ipad. But you are right…you do have to root to get rid of bloatware and customize it to work they way it should. Xylomaphoner Well, the article was written about the Galaxy Tab, not the Archos 101 LOL! The Archos 101 looks great! Anonymous Thats why I dont like the galaxy tab..I dont see the purpose of tablets.but based on on the research Ive done i would say the archos 101 is top for the money…second would be the nook if you root it but thats saving 50 bucks for something that isnt natively supported and losing a lot of the key features the Archos has. Lots more potential there. I really didnt know anything about Archos until my gf wanted an ipad and my refusal to ever buy an apple product led me to that!!! 😛 (only hard things is grabbing one one amazon has it in stock for 299..it comes and goes…fast ) Xylomaphoner Scratch that…I'll keep waiting. Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2ntxw-6StM Anonymous If you are talking about the response to his touch I can vouch for the archos and tell you he is using it wrong….i came across the same problem when I first started using it…i thought it was faulty…….. Read some comments.. I am sure you read that it has a capacitive touch screen….well it turns out that you have to use the screen very softly…which goes against anything you are used to using your conventional touch screens…anytime you press hard… it doesn't respond..it took me 2 hours and some research to find out what was wrong and then about 20 minutes to train myself to go against my instinct….i noticed this with any capacitive touch screen later… Once you learn how to use it.. its pretty awesome but also very different….the guy doing the unboxing really doesn't know his stuff…its good to research everything before buying…but always take everything with a grain of salt…and don't rely on only one opinion…not even mine which is prefect :p But waiting is a good idea and personally I suggest a10″ tablet netbook(check amazon or newegg)…get 2gb of ram…..maybe windows 7 premium to take advantage of multi touch…and you have something more than a glorified e-reader…. Xylomaphoner Yeah. Ideally, I'd like to purchase a "netTab" (as I'm calling it) with a dual boot windows 7/android option. I agree that, currently, netbooks are superior to any tablet out there. I just want a new toy lol! I'm pretty confident that this year will be the tablet pc year for all the major players. iPad2 is coming out, Gingerbread, and god knows how many windows tablet. It's going to look like an episode of star trek! Xylomaphoner Yeah. Ideally, I'd like to purchase a "netTab" (as I'm calling it) with a dual boot windows 7/android option.

It's going to look like an episode of star trek! Anonymous This is an overpriced Samsung Galaxy S phone. Best value for money on android Tablets imo is the Archos 101 at 299. Usb, HDMI, SD card slot, Froyo 2.2, webcam with video calling, capacitive touchscreen and resposivness was decent. iPad 2 will basically feature what this device already has but raise the price since it cant stay at same levels as the iPad 1.

Two extraordinary works about soldiers in a time of dubious peace by a writer of vast eloquence and moral authority. With stylistic panache and vitriolic wit, William Styron depicts conflicts between men of somewhat more than average intelligence and the military machine. In The Long March, a novella, two Marine reservists fight to retain their dignity while on a grueling exercise staged by a posturing colonel. The uproariously funny play In the Clap Shack charts the terrified passage of a young recruit through the prurient inferno of a Navy hospital VD ward. In both works, Styron wages a gallant defense of the free individual–and serves up a withering indictment of a system that has no room for individuality or freedom.
William Styron (1925–2006), a native of the Virginia Tidewater, was a graduate of Duke University and a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps. His books include Lie Down in Darkness, The Long March, Set This House on Fire, The Confessions… More about William Styron

Strong finishes up front powered the Rosemount boys and girls cross country teams to a pair of second-place team finishes at last Thursday's Ev Berg Invitational at Brooktree Golf Course in Owatonna. Senior Trevor Capra and sophomore Sam Ivanecky placed 3-4 to lead the eighth-ranked (Class 2A) Irish to a team total of 68 points, 15 off the pace of seventh-ranked (Class 2A) Owatonna's 53 points.
If it were up to the Rosemount volleyball team, the entire season would be comprised of tournament consolation matches. The Irish won their second consolation championship in as many tournaments this season over the weekend, winning four straight matches Saturday to close out play at the 32-team Midwest Fall Classic Tournament at St. Michael-Albertville High School.
The sixth-ranked (Class 2A) Rosemount girls swimming and diving team moved one step closer to an undefeated run through the South Suburban Conference with a 96-78 dual win over Burnsville last Thursday at the Rosemount Middle School pool. A year after finishing 8-1 and sharing the title with Lakeville North and Prior Lake, the Irish are 6-0 with dual meets remaining against Bloomington Jefferson, Eastview and Lakeville South. Burnsville took the early lead with a first-place finish in the 200 medley relay Thursday, but it was all Irish after that.
Rosemount's football season looked to be slipping away when a 17-7 loss to Prior Lake on homecoming dropped the team to 1-3. But just two weeks later, the Irish took the field on a chilly night at Lakeville South and looked rejuvenated. They made some changes to a turnover-plagued offense and used their fourth straight strong defensive showing to spoil the Cougars' homecoming with a 12-0 shutout victory Friday night.
The final three games of the regular season served as a reminder to Rosemount of just how good the boys soccer is in the South Suburban Conference. Coming off a 1-0 loss to second-ranked (Class 2A) Apple Valley, Rosemount overcame a three-goal deficit in the last 20 minutes to forge a 3-3 tie on the road at Burnsville last Tuesday. The team then closed out the conference slate with another 1-0 setback, this time at sixth-ranked (Class 2A) Eastview last Thursday.
The Rosemount football team moved back to 3-3 and spoiled Lakeville South's homecoming with a 12-0 shutout victory over the Cougars Friday night in Lakeville. After a scoreless first half, first-time starting quarterback Jackson Erdmann gave Rosemount the lead with a one-yard sneak across the goal line. The run was set up by a 55-yard punt return by Dimitri Williams. The Irish put the game away with a 16-play, 84-yard drive that spanned the first six-plus minutes of the fourth quarter.
There was no letdown for the Rosemount volleyball team against an Apple Valley squad that entered last Thursday's match on a nine-game losing streak. The Irish played well from the start and improved to 8-6 overall and 3-2 in the South Suburban Conference with a 25-20, 25-23, 25-14 league win at Irish Gym. "We knew we had to play smart and battle through each point," Rosemount coach Smokey Vitek said. "We came out strong and played strong through the entire match." Katie Duff led a balanced offensive effort with 14 kills and three ace serves.
The Rosemount boys soccer team gave No. 1-ranked (Class 2A) and unbeaten Apple Valley all it could handle last Thursday night at Irish Stadium. The Eagles hung on for a 1-0 South Suburban Conference victory -- their fourth straight via shutout -- but the Irish didn't go down without a fight.
For the second straight week the Rosemount girls soccer team looked like two different teams in a span of 48 hours. Head coach Kevin Adams was pleased with the team's effort in both games, but the offense failed to produce a goal for the fifth time this season in a 0-0 overtime tie against a defensive-minded Apple Valley squad Thursday night at Irish Stadium. Back at home for Senior Night on Saturday, the Irish took advantage of a reeling Hastings team by hanging up a season-high seven goals as they sent the Raiders to their fifth straight loss. "We played two very good games this week.
Lakeville North didn't enter any athletes in the 1-meter dive at last Thursday's South Suburban Conference dual meet in Rosemount. Those 13 points that went eighth-ranked Rosemount's way ended up being the difference as the Irish improved to 5-0 atop the league standings with a 93-90 win. "If they had any divers, we just would have swam faster," Rosemount coach Tami Carlson joked after the meet. The home team took the early lead thanks to victories by the 200 medley relay team and Megan Wenman in the 200 freestyle.

Geographic Range
Tomato clownfish are known to be found in the Oriental Region of the Western Pacific, namely, South China Sea, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Viet Nam, China, Philippines, and Taiwan. They have been found to inhabit waters as far north as the Ryukyu Islands and the southern parts of Japan. The longitudinal coordinates for this area are 25 N - 35 S. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
- Biogeographic Regions
- oriental
- pacific ocean
Tomato clownfish are known to inhabit lagoon reefs, particularly with embayments. According to Fautin and Allen (1992), this species does not migrate, and has developed a relationship with the anemone Entacmaea quadricolor. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
- Habitat Regions
- tropical
- Aquatic Biomes
- reef
- Range depth
- 1 to 12 m
- 3.28 to 39.37 ft
Physical Description
Tomato clownfish have a distinct orange body, which may turn black in older individuals. Behind the head of the fish, a black-edged bar extends from the top of the head towards the belly. A second black-edged white bar may be found around the mid-section of the body.
Amphiprion frenatus have 9-10 dorsal-fin spines and 16-18 dorsal soft rays. This species also has 2 anal-fin spines and 13-15 anal soft rays.
Tomato clownfish can grow up to 14 cm in length. Females are larger than males. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
- Other Physical Features
- ectothermic
- bilateral symmetry
- Sexual Dimorphism
- female larger
- Range length
- 14 (high) cm
- 5.51 (high) in
Beginning as an egg, tomato clownfish will take about one week to hatch and become larvae. After hatching, larvae will drift for about 16 days in plankton-rich waters. At the end of this drifting journey, the larvae will look for anemones of their own to inhabit. Their development from there depends upon social roles. A juvenile will only develop into a sexually mature male if this role in the anemone is not already filled. When the female of the anemone is absent, the largest mature male will then change into the sexually mature female. (Myers, 1999)
Damselfishes that live in anemones have biological attributes that help them to live in this unique environment. As they mature, they gain a special mucus coat that has specific chemicals that counter the anemone's sting. These fishes are also known to have a special swimming pattern that helps them to survive in the anemone. (Allen, 1997)
According to Wickler (1963), Amphiprion frenatus, like other anemonefishes, is not immune to the anemone, but instead stimulates the nematocysts (stinging cells) to fire. If these fish choose to live outside of an anemone, they usually take up residence in coral branches.
It is possible to make a general guess at the age of tomato clownfish by the stripes on their bodies. When young, these fish will have more white stripes on their hind regions. However, not all individuals lose the juvenile pattern as they mature. (Wickler, 1963)
A pair of tomato clownfish will mate for life. However, if one partner leaves, then the other will find a replacement for its lost mate. (Wickler, 1963)
- Mating System
- monogamous
One of the most interesting characteristics of anemonefishes is that all offspring are born male, and mature as such. Therefore, all females are sex-reversed. This sexual metamorphosis occurs when the female of a group leaves. This will trigger the largest male remaining to switch sexes and will allow the largest juvenile to become a mature male. The adult pair will then continue to stunt the growth of the remaining offspring.
When courting a female, a male will exhibit both sterotyped and ritualised behavior. A male will chase a female, as he becomes more bold. He also has the tendancy to show off for his mate by erecting his dorsal, anal, and pelvic fins as he remains in one spot near her, much like a statue. Another form of behavior recorded among A. frenatus is "signal jumping," which means that a male will move rapidly around an anemone in an up and down manner. In the beginning of their courtship, a male will also spend a large amount of time picking out the nesting site that he will eventually guard if he is successful in mating with a female. At the end of courtship, she will also help her mate in clearing the nesting site of algae and other debris. When laying eggs, a female will place the adhesive eggs on a rock near the anemone. The male then watches over them until they hatch.
Tomato clownfish, like all Amphiprion, will breed all year long in the tropics, but only in the warmer months of temperate locations. Spawning occurs during a full moon, which is characteristic of all anemomefishes. (Fautin and Allen, 1992; Myers, 1999)

- Average time to hatching
- 6-7 days
- Average time to independence
- 8-12 days
After the eggs are laid near the host anemone, the male looks after the eggs, and both the male and female will protect the eggs as well. After the larvae hatch, they swim away to find an anemone of their own to inhabit, and no further care is given by the parents. (Myers, 1999; Wickler, 1963)
- Parental Investment
- male
- female
- protecting
The knowledge surrounding longetivity for this species is sparse, even though more is known about this species than other anemonefishes. At most, they live 6-10 years in teh wild, and 18 years in captivity. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
- Average lifespan
Status: wild
- 6-10 years

- Range lifespan
Tomato clownfish, like many other anemonefishes, have a complex social hierarchy that rules not only who is in charge of the host anemone, but also the size of the other fish that live within it. At the bottom of the hierarchy are the juvenilles. Usually several juveniles will share one anemone with a mating pair. A sexually mature male is next in line in the hierarchy, with the female at the top. All A. frenatus are born as males, and will only change into a female when the female of the host anemone has left.
One cannot tell the age of a tomato clownfish by simply measuring its size. The female initiates a non-threatening, harassing behavior towards the mature male with whom she shares the anemone. From this behavior, the male in turn harasses the juveniles in the same manner. Since the juveniles are constantly being chased by the male and sometimes the female, they seldom have time to eat enough nutrients to grow any larger. This behavior inhibits the growth of the newer fish to the anemone. Even the male is half as large as the female due to her consistant harassment of him. Therefore, when the female is absent from the anemone, both the male and the juveniles experience a large growth spurt. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
- Key Behaviors
- natatorial
- motile
- territorial
- social
- dominance hierarchies
Home Range
The territory size of the anemonefishes depends upon the size of the fish. The smallest tomato clownfish will usually stay very close to the host anemone when foraging for food due to their increased risk of predation. Larger anemonefishes that are at the top of the social heirarchy in the host anemone will travel many meters from their host. (Fautin and Allen, 1992)
Communication and Perception
Not much is known about the communication of tomato clownfish, except that when they are either defending themselves or attacking others, they will make a "tack-tack" sound. (Wickler, 1963)
- Communication Channels
- acoustic
Food Habits
Tomato clownfish eat algae, zooplankton, and small, aquatic crustaceans.
A characteristic of all anemonefish belonging to the genus Amphiprion is that they are mutualistic with anemones. This means that they live together with large anemones, and each helps the other species. When a tomato clownfish brings food back to an anemone, the anemone is rewarded with crumbs from the meal. In turn, the fish is protected from predators while within the anemone. The anemonefish also help the anemones by cleaning and caring for them, which again benefits the anemone greatly. (Allen, 1997)

- algae
In all of the literature available, no specific predators were given for the tomato clownfish or even for their genus, Amphiprion.
Ecosystem Roles
Amphiprion frenatus is a symbiont to the bulb-tentacle sea anemone, Entacmaea quadricolor. Although they can both live without each other, their health and rate of survival are increased when tomato clownfish live within its tentacles. (Fautin and Allen, 1992; Fautin and Allen, 1992)

- Pacific Ocean
body of water between the southern ocean (above 60 degrees south latitude), Australia, Asia, and the western hemisphere. This is the world's largest ocean, covering about 28% of the world's surface.
- acoustic
uses sound to communicate
- bilateral symmetry
having body symmetry such that the animal can be divided in one plane into two mirror-image halves. Animals with bilateral symmetry have dorsal and ventral sides, as well as anterior and posterior ends. Synapomorphy of the Bilateria.
- chemical
uses smells or other chemicals to communicate
- dominance hierarchies
ranking system or pecking order among members of a long-term social group, where dominance status affects access to resources or mates
- ectothermic
animals which must use heat acquired from the environment and behavioral adaptations to regulate body temperature
- herbivore
An animal that eats mainly plants or parts of plants.
- monogamous
Having one mate at a time.
- motile
having the capacity to move from one place to another.
- natatorial
specialized for swimming
- native range
the area in which the animal is naturally found, the region in which it is endemic.
- oriental
found in the oriental region of the world. In other words, India and southeast Asia.
- oviparous
reproduction in which eggs are released by the female; development of offspring occurs outside the mother's body.
- pet trade
the business of buying and selling animals for people to keep in their homes as pets.
- planktivore
an animal that mainly eats plankton
- protandrous
condition of hermaphroditic animals (and plants) in which the male organs and their products appear before the female organs and their products
- reef
structure produced by the calcium carbonate skeletons of coral polyps (Class Anthozoa). Coral reefs are found in warm, shallow oceans with low nutrient availability. They form the basis for rich communities of other invertebrates, plants, fish, and protists. The polyps live only on the reef surface. Because they depend on symbiotic photosynthetic algae, zooxanthellae, they cannot live where light does not penetrate.
- sexual
reproduction that includes combining the genetic contribution of two individuals, a male and a female
- social
associates with others of its species; forms social groups.
- tactile
uses touch to communicate
- territorial
defends an area within the home range, occupied by a single animals or group of animals of the same species and held through overt defense, display, or advertisement
- tropical
the region of the earth that surrounds the equator, from 23.5 degrees north to 23.5 degrees south.
- visual
uses sight to communicate
- year-round breeding
breeding takes place throughout the year
- zooplankton
animal constituent of plankton; mainly small crustaceans and fish larvae. (Compare to phytoplankton.)
