For a bargain hunter, few things are as exciting as a sale on top of a sale.
That seems to be the name of the game this week as Presidents Day sales linger on through the weekend. Many retailers are still shedding their winter collections, which means items that are already marked down are extra-cheap right now.
J.C. Penney is offering up to 25 percent off its already marked-down items online with the coupon code "FEBSAVE3." Deals range from winter coats to furniture, and many of them are priced lower than ever. Certain orders qualify for free shipping. The coupon code expires Sunday.
A few local retailers have added extra inventory to their sales racks. Monkee's of Daniel Island posted on Facebook Wednesday that it has women's apparel marked down up to 75 percent off. Some dresses are priced as low as $15, the boutique said.
StyleDwell on James Island has marked down their collection of Joe's Jeans, a designer denim line, by up to 50 percent off. The women's boutique is in the shopping center at Maybank Highway and Folly Road.
Sports Authority, for example, has slashed prices on running shoes for men and women until Saturday. Styles by Nike, ASICS and New Balance are priced as low as $39 at the North Charleston sports shop at 7800 Rivers Ave.
Sears also will offer many of its special Presidents Day markdowns until Saturday. Household appliances seem to be the focus of the sale, as the retailer has washer and dryer sets for as low as $999. Smaller appliances are marked down, too. Vacuums are as much as $170 cheaper, while some microwaves are marked down by as much as $50.
L.L. Bean's clearance sale has some robust discounts on items such as luggage, shoes and menswear. Prices are slashed by up to 70 percent off, and they've waived shipping fees.
The extra discounts billed as Presidents Day sales this week have more to do with inventory than honoring our country's forefathers. As winter starts to give way to spring, it's likely consumers will keep seeing mega-markdowns from many of the retail giants, both online and in stores.

Accelerated internationalization is an important phenomenon in international business (IB), where it has been linked mainly with studies of born globals and patterns of internationalization utilized by small and medium-sized enterprises. Building on recent research on the (redefined) concept of speed of internationalization, we seek to extend the domain of accelerated internationalization to encompass cases where large firms in certain industries from emerging markets such as China and India globalize at an accelerated pace. We utilize cases from the Chinese wind turbine manufacturing industry to illustrate the process, and apply strategic reasoning based on resource leverage as a means of explaining such phenomena - complementing the extant frameworks based on microeconomic reasoning. We argue that both approaches are needed to make sense of the important empirical phenomena revealed by examination of the patterns of internationalization exhibited by emerging market multinationals.

Whilst many studies have focused on the adoption of individual or sets of innovative management practices (e.g. lean production), fewer studies have evaluated a diverse set of management practices and firm contextual factors which may limit (or enable) the accumulation of groups of innovations in organisations. The Australian manufacturing sector is a novel setting to investigate such issues due to, among other reasons, a protracted decline of the competitive position of the sector. In this paper, we use a data-set from the Australian government funded management practices benchmarking project which was part of the World Management Survey and empirically evaluate why some companies have more innovative management practices than others. The conceptual model developed draws mainly on innovation diffusion theory and prior empirical findings. We find that (1) firms which adopt clusters of better management practices have greater performance; and (2) several firm characteristics explain the adoption of better management practices, such as education level of employees and managers, firm size, ownership by a multinational firm, and diffused ownership structure. The study has practical implications for policy-makers and stakeholders who are interested in supporting the adoption of better management practices by firms to enhance productivity in the manufacturing sector.

This study focuses on CO2 emissions 'embodied' in the characteristic China-Australia bilateral trade, which refer to the CO2 emissions due to the production of goods traded between the two countries. We perform an assessment of the CO2 embodiment in the trade during the period between 2002 and 2010. We find that the scale effect has been a dominant effect contributing to an increase of CO2 emissions embodied in the bilateral trade through the years; while the composition effect seems to be a major driver for reducing CO2 embodiment in the exports of Australia to China. Based on an analysis of the difference between the amounts of actual CO2 embodiment and those in a hypothetical 'no-trade' scenario, we estimate that the 'net' CO2 emissions due to the bilateral trade declined from around 10Mt of CO2 emissions in 2002 to -10Mt in 2010; that is, the bilateral trade contributed to a reduction of the global carbon emissions in the recent years. This finding suggests that the rapid growth of exports of carbon-intensive goods from Australia to China has helped in reducing carbon emissions globally because carbon intensity factors of those goods are much lower in Australia than those in China. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Not sure where to post this, so I'll post it here.
I finally got around to watching Creepshow III yesterday. Boy, is that a piece of crap. Not that I expected anything better; I didn't. But it's a constant marvel to me just HOW lousy some of these rip-off "sequels" to King movies are.
My question -- which I am posting in the passive-aggressive hope that Ms. Mod might have some info she'd be willing to share with us all (although I suspect I am doomed to disappointment on that score) -- is this: how in THE HELL did Taurus Entertainment get the rights to make a Creepshow movie? I know rights issues can be labyrinthine in Hollywood, but ... but ... the company that made the Dawn of the Dead "sequel"?!?
Anyways, my gut -- which is of Buddha-like proportions, and therefore wise -- tells me that there's probably a distasteful story of some sort here ... so my gut probably also tells me that that story is unlikely to be repeated here. But any info at all would be appreciated as it is currently a complete mystery to me.
By the way ... any of the rest of you seen the movie? Or am I the only poor soul determined enough to have suffered through it?

More than 4 news server connections with pan
From Brandonhutchinson.com
The pan news reader only allows 4 connections per news server when using the GUI.
However, by manually editing ~/.pan2/servers.xml, you can increase the connection limit to an arbitrary number (well, at least 20, which is the limit for my newsfeed).
~/.pan2/servers.xml before:

~/.pan2/servers.xml after:
Restart pan if it is already running for the change to take effect.

An Augusta man is facing multiple charges, including DUI, after he allegedly crashed his car into an apartment building while fleeing police on Tuesday night, according to the North Augusta Department of Public Safety.
Earl Jamahl Spencer, 25, was charged with DUI, failure to stop for blue lights and siren and driving without a license. He was placed in the Aiken County detention center but had been released by Wednesday morning.
At about 10:20 p.m., an officer attempted to stop a vehicle in North Augusta on Georgia Avenue for speeding, according to Lt. Tim Thornton, a spokesman for North Augusta Public Safety. The officer successfully stopped the vehicle near the intersection of Georgia Avenue and West Buena Vista Avenue.
The officer approached the vehicle, and, while explaining to the driver why he stopped him, the driver put the vehicle back in gear and sped from the scene.
Officers pursued the vehicle until it lost control at the intersection of West Buena Vista Avenue and Georgetown Drive while trying to make a left turn, Thornton said. The vehicle left the roadway, drove up a small inclined bank of grass and struck an apartment building on the 800 block of Georgetown Drive, police said. The vehicle came to rest in the living room of 812 Georgetown Villas, occupied by a 77-year-old woman.
The woman was treated at the scene for minor injuries sustained from flying debris from the impact and was later taken to a local hospital for further medical attention, Thornton said.
The adjoining apartment unit that was hit was vacant at the time of the incident.
Spencer was treated at the scene and released for minor facial abrasions sustained during the crash, Thornton said.

Click Here to Watch the Whole Video in HD at Broke Straight Boys
These boys are very hot and very straight but most of all they are broke. Rather then lose their apartment, girlfriend, etc. they do sexual things with other guys for some quick cash.
Jason wanted some more work in the hopes that maybe he could get ahead of the bills that he had stacking up. I told him that we would need him to do some more with guys, and he seemed to be okay with that considering that he was so broke.

OS X Mavericks pre-reviews
Some media outlets were given Macs pre-loaded with OS X Mavericks for review, and some of them have started sharing some thoughts. Since Mavericks is more of an iterative update -- especially compared to the highly visually differentiated iOS 7 -- it should come as no surprise that those who liked OS X Mountain Lion tend to like Mavericks, and tend to really like the under-the-hood improvements, and the power-user features. Here's a sampling of the thoughts shared so far.
Jim Dalrymple of The Loop:
The real shining point of Mavericks is the continued integration between OS X and iOS. Whether it's Maps directions shared to your mobile device or passwords being synced from your iPhone to your Mac, Apple is making their entire ecosystem work for the user.
Brian Heater of Engadget:
All told, Apple's promised 200 features with this release. As ever, that number includes large and minuscule additions alike. It's a list that includes some really nice additions like tabs and tagging. Again, there's nothing that's likely to lure in anyone who hasn't already made the jump from Windows. For the foreseeable future, OS X's growth will continue to be gradual. But there are certainly enough additions in here to make upgrading a no-brainer for Mac users when the final version hits in the fall. And in the meantime, hopefully Apple will reveal even more reasons to give it a try.
David Pierce of The Verge:
These are still early days for OS X 10.9, and Mavericks will likely change and shift much more before it's released this fall. It's clearly not going to be the total aesthetic overhaul iOS 7 is, though, and that's okay. It's a simple, familiar operating system, even less of a change than Mountain Lion, just with nips and tucks and a whole lot fewer sheets of weirdly torn paper.
Vincent Nguyen of SlashGear:
Apple saved the revolution for iOS 7 this year. The smartphone and tablet platform was overdue a refresh, and that's just what Apple has delivered. In contrast, the changes in OS X Mavericks feel solidly evolutionary, and while that has often come to be interpreted as a criticism, in fact it's exactly what the Mac needs. Apple is poised between its existing users and those fresh to OS X, with iOS often the point of entry. In that sense, Mavericks' drawing together of the ties between desktop and mobile makes perfect sense.
We'll update as more previews go live (or as we find more of them). Mavericks won't ship until the fall, so things can and will change. In the meantime, let me know what you think of the press coverage so far.

OS X Mavericks pre-reviews
I may wait for the first update as I really regretted jumping into Lion from Snow Leopard. My often used Front Row is history and the display drivers broke a few games. I only just jumped into mountain lion and like a few of the changes but I do hope the maps app and some other features trickle down. I still wonder why Mac was ever removed from the OS X brand. If Apple released it to the PC, Steve Jobs would be rolling in his grave and the Mac apocalypse begins or if the machines we use sooner or later are no longer a "Mac"...
Strange things afoot for sure.
I think M is going to be a free download. It's about time Apple got everyone on the same platform version - and the only way to do that is...?
It's not like Windows 8.1 where it's a point update, this is in effect an all new OS. The fact that they sold Mountain Lion for very, very little is at least a good sign that Mavericks may go the same way.

Norman Dunagan readily admits it: "I have an insatiable appetite for used vegetable oil."
The founder and operator of Dumpster Depot in Aiken, Dunagan is encouraging restaurants to dispose of their oil so that it can be converted to diesel fuel at a much lower cost.
His company is promoting the value and need to recycle waste and keep it out of ever-shrinking landfills. In the past two years, Dunagan said, the firm's numbers have grown from 2 million to 14 million pounds of waste saved from landfills.
"What we're doing is different in this economy," he said. "We want to update you with the things we're doing. We're not just picking up trash."
Dumpster Depot works with industrial companies like Bridgestone and Tognum America. Dunagan cited another firm that was spending $360,000 every year to dispose of waste. He said he educated that company that waste can be a resource and has since moved to the waste stream to $160,000 on the revenue side.
"This is huge when we're tying to think about an economy that is difficult to compete in," Dunagan said. "We're able to get people profitable when they're having a hard time being profitable."
However, South Carolina is way behind neighboring states like Georgia and North Carolina in these kinds of efforts, he said. They're moving forward, he said, with recycling plastics, aluminum and paper board. Such efforts statewide are Dumpster Depot's goal, Dunagan said.
In 1988, the United States had about 6,300 landfills; now there are 1,390, he said. As a result, waste has to travel farther and farther and companies must pay more for it.
Dunagan readily acknowledges he is an entrepreneur, not an environmentalist. Yet, the bottom line can be advantageous to communities in many ways, including an incentive to attract new industries.
He encouraged the Rotary members to educate restaurant owners about how they have access to a better solution in disposing their vegetable oil. Instead of oak, renewable material like bamboo can mature in 18 to 24 months. Compared to the average $4.50 per gallon for diesel fuel, Dunagan said, the cost will be $1.70 a gallon to turn the used oil into diesel fuel.
He also is planning to educate young people next year in all the area schools. Dunagan has created a "Green Machine" – a bus that runs on solar and electric power with an engine running on used vegetable oil collected from restaurants.
"We're funding the education that we'll use to spread to leaders in Aiken and also the youth," he said.

reCAPTCHA seems like a perfect match for Google: it's a project that generates CAPTCHAs and uses the results to digitize books. "reCAPTCHA improves the process of digitizing books by sending words that cannot be read by computers to the Web in the form of CAPTCHAs for humans to decipher. (...) Each new word that cannot be read correctly by OCR is given to a user in conjunction with another word for which the answer is already known. The user is then asked to read both words. If they solve the one for which the answer is known, the system assumes their answer is correct for the new one."
It's no wonder that Google decided to acquire reCAPTCHA and use the service to improve Google Book Search's digitizing accuracy.
"reCAPTCHA's unique technology improves the process that converts scanned images into plain text, known as Optical Character Recognition (OCR). This technology also powers large scale text scanning projects like Google Books and Google News Archive Search. Having the text version of documents is important because plain text can be searched, easily rendered on mobile devices and displayed to visually impaired users. So we'll be applying the technology within Google not only to increase fraud and spam protection for Google products but also to improve our books and newspaper scanning process."
The service offers a simple JavaScript API that allows you to embed CAPTCHAs in any web page and many popular sites use it: Facebook, Twitter, Ticketmaster.

Round Porter End Table 8 8
Perfect for small space Attractive and sturdy, nice for smaller space. It needed complete assembly, but was easy enough to do. January 8, 2011
Better than mine! The butter stollen is better than the one that I make using my grandmothers recipe (I'm chagrined to say). This stollen is packed with fruit and nuts and is pleasantly soft. A real Christmas treat! I found the marzipan stollen to bee too heavy and sweet, though. December 19, 2008
A Holiday Must! Love the Marzipan Anxiously await the arrival of the Marzipan Stollen each Christmas season! Takes me back to my childhood in Germany December 14, 2008
Stollen....a yearly tradition Every year I await World Market to get their stollen and other German treats in...my mother is German and so I give her a big gift basket with stollen, lebkuchen, herring, wursts, spaetzle, marzipan, and all of the other German specialties I can find only in World Market...it wouldn't be Christmas without it and I would probably be disowned if I didn't get it for my mother every year! LOL December 9, 2008
Marzipan Stollen This Marzipan Stollen reminds me of Germany, it is excellent. A cup of coffee and a slice of this delicious Marzipanstollen it can't get any better. November 28, 2008
A Yearly Favorite! I have been buying the Marzipan Stollen for years and it is always a big hit. I serve it with tea to friends during December as well as having a slice for breakfast on occasion. Christmas Eve wouldn't be the same without Marzipan Stollen. It brings back memories of childhood when my Mom made homemade stollen. November 28, 2008
It's Not Christmas Without Stollen I am in love with Stollen from Chicago but did not order it soon enough to have for the holidays. This is a super inexpensive alternative. Nothing like the real Chicago thing but its pretty good for the price and convenience. It's a very fruity flavorful holiday bread to have after dinner or a snack with coffee or milk. November 11, 2008
Disappointing and wobbly The individual pieces are thick and heavy--I thought I would have a substantial piece of furniture when I was done assembling it. Instead, the legs fit poorly with the top and shelves, and the final product is wobbly and twisty. Far too pricey for such a cheap-seeming product. Very disappointed. April 25, 2011

Just how will we be living in 30 years? Will you have a home with smart glass windows and mirrors that tells you what medication you need to take and reminds you how much exercise you should do?
And a house that reads your vital signs and tells you when to wake up in the morning? (For many people, that sounds more like a nightmare than a dream).
That's the vision of one group who have been pondering the questions of how, fast forward three decades, housing will look in developed countries – particularly for people who will be aged over 50.
The panel, brought together by insurer Apia and comprising industry representatives including Guy Luscombe, head of aged design at architectural firm Rice Daubney, says the humble home is about to undergo a rapid transformation.
In three decades homes are likely to be smaller, include more flexible multi-use spaces, and will be driven by technology including multiple sensors and moving walls.
"If you think the technology we have today is impressive, you haven't seen anything yet," says David Skapinker, Apia spokesperson.
"The future is going to be full of adults that won't be able to remember a time without touch screen phones and tablet computers. You're going to start to see technology like live video streaming and conferencing integrated into windows, tabletops and other surfaces."
The panel is also predicting the increased use of common facilities shared with neighbours – and for over 50s that could mean people can stay in their homes for longer.
"The proportion of over 50s in Australia is growing exponentially, and our homes are going to have to change significantly to help us adapt to the challenges of ageing," says Skapinker.
Guy Luscombe says that, today, about 90 per cent of older Australians stay in their own homes until they die. He predicts that at least that proportion of now 20-year-olds will opt to avoid retirement village living.
Key predictions for homes in 2042
Technology will be totally integrated.
Homes will take instructions from your health care team, delivering live streams and information to help you get the right exercise, food and medication.
Homes will be multi-purpose, incorporating work and living.
Properties may be smaller in 2042, but we will use them more efficiently.
Homes will be fully sustainable and environmentally friendly.
From solar panels built directly into the roof, to rainwater collection systems and wastewater recycling, homes in the future will be fully environmentally sustainable – and it will just become a normal part of building or renovating a property, predicts Luscombe.
When predicting the future, "you look at the fringes and the fringes will become mainstream," he says.
Suburbia will be transformed, with more village style living, common ground and facilities between dwellings.
Buildings will be more adaptable for people at many different life stages, says Skapinker, who adds that communal facilities will cut down maintenance for individual property owners and increase opportunities for social interaction.
Where do you think housing will be in 30 years? Much different from today? Or much the same?

Tip: How to make a phone call from iPhone's Safari browser
Ever wonder how to make a phone call right from within iPhone's Safari browser without having to switch to the phone application? Because iOS automatically detects certain data types and turns them into actions, it's easy. No need to copy and paste or write it down. We'll show you how after the break.
Anything Safari (and other applications like Mail) recognize as a phone number will be shown in blue, just like a web link. When you see a phone number like that:
- Tap on it.
- A popup will appear showing you the number and offering to let you cancel or call.
- Hit call and you'll be taken to the phone app, and the number will dial.
Bonus: There are other data detectors too, for addresses, even tracking numbers for your packages. We'll cover them in a future tip.
Tips of the day will range from beginner-level 101 to advanced-level ninjary. If you already know this tip, keep the link handy as a quick way to help a friend. If you have a tip of your own you'd like to suggest, add them to the comments or send them in to email@example.com. (If it's especially awesome and previously unknown to us, we'll even give ya a reward...)

Tip: How to make a phone call from iPhone's Safari browser
Tips will range from starter tips to more advanced tips. As we know a lot of readers are well versed in using their devices a lot of readers are new from other devices and haven't learned everything yet. We will get more in depth and we will also continue basics as well.
14 million iPhones were sold last quarter. That's a lot of new users. Users who don't give a flip about Jailbreak or Google Instant or any of the other 9 posts we put up in a day and just want to get more out of their phones.
These tips are for them. For the mainstream. For the new users. They're also for me because we get asked these kinds of questions EVERY DAY via email or twitter. Now I can just point them at the tips section.
If you don't like it, we apologies and ask that you kindly go on to the story before or after, if they're more to your liking. Otherwise, we ask that you respect different readers might have different interests and respect those.
What's next? "How to turn your iPhone on?"
Ok, I'm just kidding. I'll see if I can come up with a handy expert-level tip that you guys can share.
This is the problem with some of you users on here that think 'you know-it-all' or everybody 'should' know even the most basic things.
Like Rene already mentioned, you don't expect every single 'iDevice owner' to know everything right from the get go, theres most likely one new owner of an Apple product every single day perusing the net to find handy guides.
If you think you're an expert, please go start your own blog and provide 'Expert' advice!
Thanks tipb, continue what you're doing... its been 3 years since I adopted the iPhone - I was a Novice once.
We all crawled before we walk. So to those that don't have anything nice to say. Here's a tip of the day for you. " If you have nothing nice to say keep it to yourself." That's a beginner lesson for you... LOL. Keep up the good work TIPB...
Nextweeks lesson is going to be on How to shut the hell up...
This is a complete Joke Rene... No one is this stupid!
Thanks, Rene for this post - I'm sure that many new users found it helpful. Here's an intermediate trick for you, which I discovered after upgrading to iOS4. You'll have to install iSys (free in the app store) which is a scaled down task manager, allowing you to monitor memory usage. Start iSys and note free memory, then double tap home to get the app switcher. Make the icons in the switcher jiggle, and start killing them...and watch your free memory increase. You can determine which of your apps are big ol' memory hogs, and close them from the switcher if you're experiencing crashes
I even knew how to do this, and I use a bed pan!
Phone links are not always shown in blue, with an underline, like a web link--depending on the page style sheet. If you see a phone number you want to call, try tapping on it anyway. If it turns out to not be linked for some reason, you can then just copy it and paste it into the phone dialer--which is also a helpful technique for phone numbers in other places like documents. Once you have the phone number in the clipboard, just tap the box at the top of the dialer and select Paste.
I wanted to share another tip. (I've been using the iPhone for three years now and just figured this out two weeks ago.)
To launch an app, make sure you're looking at the app you want to open and touch the screen momentarily with your finger. Voilà! (It actually works with other body parts, too, but it's much easier and won't get you thrown out of a coffee shop if you just use you finger.)
For years I just kept my finger down and then took the iPhone back to the Genius Bar to get them to make things stop wiggling.
Hope that helps somebody!
Come on man only an idiot would know how to do that
What is Safari? Hehehe
This function, although useful, actually gets on my nerves. when the iphone recognises something as a phone number it gives you options to call, add to existing contact or create new contact. It doesn't offer the standard "select" and "copy" any more. When I'm making a long distance of international call I want to dial a specific code first. I'd love to be able to cut and paste a phone number from a website so that I could dial a prefix before pasting into the dialer app. My only option is to create a new contact and then edit the contact to cut the number, then open the dialer, then enter the prefix, then paste.
Seriously Rene, people who are using Safari to browse the Internet KNOW that clicking on blue underlined things take you to somewhere else. When your number turns blue and underlined just like every other link, how is it not obvious to a 2 year old that that too ... will take you somewhere? There is nothing wrong with writing an article for novices. But this kind of article is a howto for idiots. I actually feel kind of stupid reading your web site now a days with these kinds of articles. And by the way, you're the only one writing howto documents for blatantly obvious things like this.
It is equivalent to writing a howto on how to left click a mouse to activate something. REALLY? How did they get there if they didn't know how to left click?
Calm down guys - there are different audiences for everything. While most of us already know these basics, there are a ton of people who have no clue. I know this because my mom got her first iphone when the 4 came out and is still asking me how to do basic things on it. She's just not a techy type person but I credit her for trying. Although I would have to imagine that anyone techy enough to actually be coming to this page, would already know these basic tips.
There is no defending this tip, I'm afraid this one is beyond reconcilable. When you're in safari, a phone number will appear in blue as a link. Anyone who has ever used a mouse or received an email or surfed the web knows this. Who in their right mind will not have the common sense to click on the phone number that's in the form of a link which will then get prompted to call directly from safari? Sorry, waste of Bandwidth here.
I can just imagine the PM Rene sent to this blogger.
Ugh. These tips are lame. Did you know that pressing accept answers a call?
I think this article could be more helpful by providing a few ways data detectors provide additional convenience to the user. These are all over the iOS:
- automatically scheduling appointments from date/time/place related text: e.g. tapping on "conference next Thursday at 5:30 pm in Room 205" will launch Calendar.
- launching Maps app when tapping on an address, e.g. "1025 Worthington Place" is detected as location data and tapping it will show you the location in Google Maps and provide further options.
These are effective not just in Safari. They work in Mail, Notes, and most text fields throughout the OS.
I agree with many of the other commentators above who feel the information conveyed in this article, while useful, could be presented and authored in a way that is more broadly appealing to TiPb's current and potential readership.
Glad to see people here are so passionate about their cell phones. Thanks for the info, Rene.
Hey Rene, this tip may be a little childish for most, but whatever. I do however have a tip that people may like to see. If you're watching a youtube video and you only want to hear the audio for whatever reason (save battery ect.) you can play the video, lock the iphone/ipod touch, and double the home button to bring up ipod controls. from there you just hit the play button and your audio plays with no video. this is nice for listening to songs or podcasts on youtube when the screen isn't important and you don't want to accidentally pause or skip it while listening.
excellent tip, i love it.
i know you must have thick skin by now so you probably don't need me saying this but don't listen to all of the whiners, they are so full of themselves they don't even realize there are actually people out there who appreciate tips like these. keep up the great work. and thank you!
I just wish there were other options when 'clicking' on a 'phone number'. Like copy or open in a new page. Sometimes I'm looking up a number for someone else and I don't want to call that number, but simply add it to a text message. Or the number IS a web link, but the iPhone thinks it's a phone number, so the only option is to call. This is a nice feature, but needs work.
Next tip. Pressing the silver button thingy on the top of the antenna thingy makes the screen go dark.
Realistically, anyone who is reading an iPhone blog knows how to click on a blue underlined phone number. There is just no defending this one... Novice tips are welcomes because I certainly don't know it all, but this is A:should NOT even be considered a tip & B:if it is, it's a tip for a complete idiot.
I just bought an iPhone because it's uber-trendy and makes me popular. Truth is I'm a tool...I've honestly never actually figured out how to turn it on. But it's okay, because I can hold it up to my head and walk around like I'm using it, and it leaves the masses in awe.
I am, however, anxiously awaiting the TiPb tip that shows me how to turn the phone on...I think that might really open up some new doors as far as what this device does for me...perhaps I'll get some fart apps and custom ringtones, then people will have no choice but to recognize my awesomeness.
I want to thank you for the exceptional read!! I certainly enjoyed each and every little bit of it. I have bookmarked your blog so I can go and visit the most recent articles you publish later on.
I've been surfing on-line greater than three hours these days, but I never discovered any interesting article like yours. It's beautiful price enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web might be a lot more helpful than ever before.

The lights are on
Please bear with us as we have launched in beta so you may notice a bug or two. The best thing you can do is let us know right here in the Site Feedback Forum. Have a question or comment regarding the new site? This is your place.
Still no luck. Seems like it's a 'sever-side' issue; the error is fairly to specific to windows (which is not my OS) in its wording.
Same problem while using my Android tablet. Started my account using this device. Didn't have a problem uploading an avatar then.
I am getting this error as well and would love to change my avatar. Is anyone still on this issue?
Check out my game environment website! Made some pretty stuff for games!
I still have this issue. It's been persisting for quite some time and no matter what image I use I get an error message.
I try to change my avatar, but at the top of my page, the side, and in threads it still shows the default avatar. If I start a thread, no image will show at all
Alrighty! I figured out a way to change my avatar picture that finally worked! Click on 'settings' at the top of the page. Once in settings, click on 'profile options' and then change your avatar through here. Mine changed immediately after uploading the image.
I was having the same error pop up talking about having the wrong permission and all that so hopefully this helps anyone who makes it here.
Holy crap! That worked!!!
Nice going, Triller.

ROSEMONT, Ill.---The Chicago Wolves erased a 1-0 first-intermission deficit with three goals in the second period to earn a 3-1 victory over the Lake Erie Monsters in front of a season-high 15,319 fans Saturday night at the Allstate Arena.
Forwards Darren Haydar (G, 2A) and Steve Reinprecht (G, A) and defenseman Chris Tanev (2A) paced the offense for Chicago, which won for the sixth time at home in seven contests.
"We started slow, but I was happy we were only down one after the first period," said Wolves head coach Craig MacTavish. "It was a good step for our team to turn it around in the second and hold on for the victory."
Trailing 1-0 after 20 minutes, Chicago (18-12-1-3) knotted the score 6:42 into the second period. Left wing Bill Sweatt controlled the puck below the goal line, stick-handled into the near circle and wristed a shot past screened Lake Erie goaltender Trevor Cann.
The Wolves jumped ahead 2-1 on the power play when right wing Mark Mancari's shot from the side of the crease hit the far post and landed at the skates of Reinprecht, who flipped the puck under the bar and into the empty net at 9:26.
Chicago opened a 3-1 advantage 2:44 later. Seconds after a Wolves power play expired, Haydar controlled the puck in the far circle and sent a shot between the legs of Cann. The netminder got a piece of it, but the puck trickled over the goal line at 9:26.
Cann (8-13-0) stopped 18 of 21 shots.
Lake Erie (16-18-1-1) picked up its lone goal 43 seconds after the opening face-off. Left wing Patrick Rissmiller's shot hit off the back-boards and the puck bounced to center Evan Brophey at the side of the net. He tapped home the puck past Wolves goaltender Matt Climie.
Climie (10-5-0) posted 19 saves.
The Wolves close out a three-in-three weekend when they host the Charlotte Checkers at 3 p.m. Sunday at the Allstate Arena.
Lake Erie 1 0 0 -- 1
Chicago 0 3 0 -- 3
First Period---1, Lake Erie, Brophey 10 (Rissmiller, Barrie), 0:43. Penalties---Liffiton, Lake Erie (fighting), 3:50; Clackson, Chicago (fighting), 3:50; Mancari, Chicago (slashing), 8:57; Sauve, Chicago (double minor high-sticking), 13:05.

Justin Bieber Fling Milyn Jensen on Being His "Black Girlfriend"
Milyn Jensen knows all about being a bad girl.
Milyn reportedly hooked up with Justin Bieber in December 2012, which contributed to his split with Selena Gomez, and now she's speaking about it on her new reality show, Bad Girls' Club.
"There's hella s**t in the media about, like, me and Justin Bieber, and they're like, 'Oh, his black girlfriend,'" says Milyn, who also goes by Mimi.
"First of all, I'm mixed," she continues.
This is all she says about Justin in the promo for the show's upcoming season.
It had been reported in the media that Justin tried to hook up again with Mimi a few weeks ago, but she wasn't able to because she was filming the show in Florida.
So what else does she have to say about the Biebs? We suppose we'll have to tune in to find out.

I want to fight in front of my son, friends and fans in Australia, Lombard said post-fight.A few people doubted me that I could make 170 (pounds), but I did it easier than when I was 185, Lombard said. I think Dana White, Joe Silva, and the rest of the UFC was right for me to cut down to 170.
Lombards only previous win in the UFC before Saturday night was on the Gold Coast in Australia, where he knocked out the recently exiled Rousimar Palhares.
He looked great tonight, UFC president Dana White said. Dan Lambert texted me right after the fight and said come on, give him a fight in Australia. You know what Joe Silva is like, he said that card is packed. Well see if we can squeeze him in on the card.

I currently own a 2 year old iPhone 4s.
Since the iPhone 5s has been out for a couple of weeks....
I was wondering... is the battery life of the 5s (significantly) better in daily usage than the 4s?
Or, doesn't it make a real difference (e.g. "10 mins more battery life") - to justify a new iPhone 5s?

Our 2008 Dedication® marks the sixth release of our bordelaise project. This wine is a complex and fruity blend incorporating the four most common varietals used in this style of wine; Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec.
Blending such a wine is one of the most fun and rewarding parts of a winemakers job. On the nose, the 2008 Dedication offers rich blackberry, currant, plum and loads of jammy cherry with faint seasonings of dark chocolate, truffle oil, oak, coriandor, and minerals. A velvety core of lush red fruit emerges from the ripeness of our small-berried hillside fruit. This generously proportioned wine expands as it moves through the palate with a seemingly endless finish. Ultimately, what you'll find is the classic Schweiger marriage of power and finesse. It's hard for me to figure out what is more fun, making this wine...or drinking it!
