Freeze on Service Order Activity September 16 through September 30
In preparation for the implementation of OTM's new Telecommunications Expense Management System, it will be necessary for OTM to freeze most service order activity for the period of September 16, 2013, through September 30, 2013. Customers may continue to submit orders during this time. Those orders that can be handled directly by OTM will be completed within normal service intervals, but those that involve an external vendor will be held and processed after the freeze unless deemed an emergency. Billing may be delayed or manually prepared for all work during this period.
If you have any questions concerning this project, contact the follow OTM personnel:

2014 Mazda 6 Diesel USA Release Date Release
2014 Mazda 6 Diesel USA Review
Previously in 2012, Mazda, subsequent inside the footsteps of many some other automakers which were close to introduce a diesel towards the U. S. market, entered 2 Mazda6 diesel sedans inside the grueling Rolex 24 (additionally referred to as 24 Hours of Daytona) race.
Mazda can start selling the actual oilburner in the direction of finished of 2013 like a 2014 design so we made a decision to turn out to be a little more acquainted with the actual line by traveling the actual gasoline-powered variant.
The actual 2014 Mazda Mazda6 itself is really a headturner. I can't think about a car along with an MSRP which starts in roughly $21, 000 which generated as much feedback – all favorable– like the Mazda6. Based mostly on the actual automaker's Takeri concept car, the actual Mazda6 continues the actual Kodo Soul of Motion design language which first appeared on the actual Shinari concept. The front fascia, maybe drop overwhelming, provides the actual car substantial presence and also the handsome roofline and sweeping character lines provides it an elegance not common from the pricepoint or market segment.
2014 Mazda 6 Diesel USA Powertrain
The new 2014 Mazda6 goes without a V-6 engine, but there is an alternative that provides the relaxed muscle of a V-6′s low-rev torque. An alternative that makes vastly better fuel economy. It's the 2014 Mazda 6 Diesel, which the company said definitely will come to the U.S. this year.
It seems crazy to compare the refinement of a V-6 with the reputedly rough and vibratory nature of a four-cylinder diesel, but bear with us. For one, diesels are getting more refined — and this is a good one. More than that, its ample torque reserve means you seldom have to wring it out just to gather a few mph. With 310 lb-ft at 2000 rpm, it'll get the job done without breaking a sweat.
In Europe, we've been driving one equipped with Mazda's own six-speed automatic transmission. Compared with the 2.5-liter, I-4 gas engine version, it not only has that extra torquey shove in the mid-ranges, but it's only half a second slower to 60 mph, Mazda says. Yet, in the European fuel cycle, it goes an extra third on a gallon.
2014 Mazda 6 Diesel USA Exterior and Interior
As for the rest of the car, it's like we've said before: a rigid body, agile handling, good grip, resistance to understeer, nice styling, decent interior, and strong ergonomics. Certainly, a more interesting sedan then most of the mainstream options.
Features and Safety
This latter feature is part of the 6's "i-ActiveSense" safety package, and applies the brakes automatically if the driver in front of you does something stupid. We experienced it first hand during our drive around Austin, and it works.

Mystery of Great War photo that was sent to Woodside
Posted: July 15, 2014|
THIS photograph shows us that some soldiers of the First World War did enjoy some respite from the mud and blood of the trenches. Morale was vital for the troops' wellbeing and football matches between regiments, and other sports, were played within the sound of the front line guns.
The picture was recently passed to Len Hughes of the Woodside Memory and History Group and we hope that readers may be able to tell us some more about, even recognise one of the faces.
Almost nothing is known about the picture and we can't with any certainty name any of the men shown. But written on the back of it are two names – Hill and Mrs Smith, Woodside. Then there is a message in a different hand, written in ink that has faded to purple over the years. Here it is, with its spelling mistakes: "I ham sending you this photo I dont no what you will think of it. I expect you will find me alright. So that is all this time."
Do you recognise any of the men in the picture? Do the names mean anything to you?
The men in uniform appear to be wearing the cap badges of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment – is this another clue?
Interestingly, while these front line footballers had their kit they did not appear to have football socks or boots as they are wearing puttees and their army boots. In fact, some of the players seem to have steel toe-capped boots!
And can you make anything of the message written on the ball? It looks to be either "DRUNS" or "ORUNS 1917-18 BEF"
As well as keeping morale high, football also helped to keep the men fit while they were away from the firing-line. Matches were organised between battalions and regiments but the most famous football games of the war must be the impromptu ones between the British and the Germans that took place in no-man's land at the first Christmas of the war in 1914. This fraternisation was frowned upon by the authorities and at subsequent Christmases any seasonal sporting rapprochement between the troops was suppressed.
Footballs were sometimes kicked from the trenches at the start of an attack, most famously on the first day of the Battle of the Somme in 1916 when men of the East Surrey Regiment kicked footballs into no-man's land as they went over the top.
The Royal Warwickshire Regiment raised 30 battalions in the First World War, three of them were known as the "Birmingham Pals". The regiment won 70 battle honours and five Victoria Crosses in the course of the war, and lost 11,610 men.
Two of the most famous commanders of the Second World War served with the Royal Warwickshire Regiment in the first – Bernard Montgomery served with them on the Western Front while William Slim fought in Gallipoli and Mesopotamia. Both were wounded and decorated for their bravery while with the regiment.
Can you name any of these footballers? Contact dshaw@blackcoun trybugle.co.uk or write in to 41 High Street, Cradley Heath, B64 5HL.

Cowboys' La'el Collins in position to rebound from nightmare scenarioDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 3 hrs ago
OXNARD, Calif. – La'el Collins was about to board a flight to Chicago in May, to the NFL draft, to the dream come true for a kid from Baton Rouge who was projected to be a top-15 selection as an offensive lineman.
That's when news broke publicly that a Brittany Mills – 29 years old, eight months pregnant and briefly romantically linked with Collins – had been shot and murdered in the doorstep of her apartment complex. Her unborn son would later die also. Worse for Collins, the police were interested in talking to him.
By the time he landed in Chicago, his phone wouldn't stop blowing up and his agent was telling him that he may need to turn around and go home, that the draft was now in flux and in a post-Aaron Hernandez world, the NFL was panicked. The agency, Priority Sports, had already hired a defense attorney and a private investigator and was convinced of Collins' alibi and innocence. But this was the swirl of dwindling hours of the draft.
Rumors fly. Teams scare.
Collins tearfully told family and friends who'd come to celebrate with him that even though he had nothing to do with Mills' murder, the NFL celebration was being deferred.
Tony Romo, Cowboys will be unable to dodge Super Bowl expectations talkDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 1 day ago
They brought coolers and cookers and a sense of optimism – try exhilaration – about a season that hasn't been felt around this franchise in years. Everyone here thinks Dez caught the ball. Most think the refs up in Lambeau saying otherwise did nothing but delay a long-awaited return to the Super Bowl one season.
And that season is now here, Super Bowl or bust, and for all of them, perhaps especially the ones wearing Tony Romo jerseys, that means the chance for their quarterback to fulfill a long-awaited potential. Not that Romo wants to hear about outside expectations.
"Last year we were in fifth in the NFC East going into the season," he joked about the four-team division.
They wound up 12-4 though, beat Detroit in the wild-card round for a rare playoff victory and then nearly strolled out of Green Bay with another win. Romo had his best season as a pro, 38 touchdowns against just nine picks (counting the playoffs) and led the NFL in completion percentage at 69.9 percent. His regular-season QB rating of 113.2 was nearly 20 percent higher than his then career average.
And he did it all with a bad back that limited practice time.
In other words, windows shut quickly.
How Tom Brady and the Patriots walked into Roger Goodell's trap is bafflingDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 2 days ago
It's a term you'd never think to use when describing the New England Patriots – from owner Robert Kraft right down to star quarterback Tom Brady:
Yet there was Kraft on Wednesday morning at a stunning and unscheduled news conference all but admitting he was just that as he apologized to fans for backing off the fight against the NFL over deflate-gate.
[Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league today!]
He was acknowledging the obvious: the Patriots lost this case – lost two draft picks, a million bucks, four games of Tom Brady's service and incalculable reputation for all involved. And they lost it as much out of poor strategy as evidence.
"I have come to the conclusion this was never about what was fair and just," Kraft said. "I was wrong to put my faith in the league."
Goodell played him as a fool.
"Unfathomable," Kraft said.

Tom Brady's destroyed cell phone is smoking gun that crushed the Patriots superstarDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 3 days ago
Tom Brady is too smart for this, or at least he's supposed to be.
It's why even if he were somehow proven innocent on the facts surrounding the inflation level of footballs in January's AFC championship game, he probably deserves a four-game suspension for being such an idiot during the investigation.
Brady knew the NFL was after him for being involved in what the league believed was the deflation of footballs in that playoff game. He knew commissioner Roger Goodell fancied himself as a law and order sheriff, here to punish players for all sorts of misconduct. He knew the NFL wanted his cell phone, or the information it held.
Knowing all of this, he should have known one thing: don't destroy the phone.
Yet Brady did, according to the NFL, which announced it would uphold the quarterback's four-game suspension on Tuesday.
He gift-wrapped a present for Goodell, who was desperate for an angle to drop the hammer on the New England Patriots star.
Boom. Phone gone. Appeal done. Court of Public Opinion lost. Reputation in tatters.
Except in this case.
This lame take shouldn't gain steam: Notre Dame should be barred from College Football PlayoffDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 3 days ago
Notre Dame should have a strong team this year, with the NFL salivating over linebacker Jaylon Smith, offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley and wideout William Fuller, among others. Brian Kelly has to break in a new quarterback in Malik Zaire, but the Fightin' Irish are a legit playoff contender.
Of course, in the playoff era every team – from Alabama to Army – is, or should be, a legit playoff contender. What they do on the field of play is the only thing that matters.
Then again, both Missouri coach Gary Pinkel and Clemson's Dabo Swinney recently discounted ND not on the potential strength of the team, but because the school refuses to join a conference full-time and instead remains a throwback independent. Swinney seemed most concerned that this limited their season to 12, rather than 13 games.
"They don't have independents in NFL," Pinkel noted.
"Absolutely Notre Dame needs to be in conference or play 13 games to be in," Swinney echoed.
These are intellectually lazy opinions that can't stand up to any reasonable debate considering the state of college football scheduling.
More years need to go by before any conclusions can be made.
NFL's latest deflate-gate move could make its punishment of Tom Brady, Pats laughableDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 4 days ago
Over the weekend Mike Pereira, the former vice president of officiating for the NFL and current Fox Sports analyst, detailed that the league will use "new procedures" for how the inflation levels of footballs will be "prepared and monitored."
There will be more footballs used – 12 primary, 12 backup. Each will be numbered. All footballs will be set to 13 pounds per square inch before the game and then measured again afterward. At select games, the primary balls will be measured and removed at halftime and the second half will be played with the backups.
The story has been framed as the NFL doing a better job securing its game balls – a long overdue development. However, this is way more than that. This is a science experiment, allowing the league to begin to understand how weather, game use and other factors impact the inflation level (if at all) of footballs.
Commissioning a real study is one of the most responsible and professional things the league office has done in the deflate-gate scandal.
It's also potentially self-destructive for the NFL.
The NFL didn't have much choice, of course.
Roger Goodell's handling of deflate-gate has become three-ring circusDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 7 days ago
One month has passed since Tom Brady's appeal hearing in deflate-gate. One month and Roger Goodell still hasn't announced a decision.
Nothing. No upholding the suspension. No reversing the suspension. No lightening of the suspension. This isn't a Supreme Court case. This isn't complicated. It shouldn't take a month of leaving a player hung out to dry, as the biggest storyline going into the start of training camp remains an overblown, self-inflicted soap opera from last season.
One month and Goodell still can't figure out what to do, which somehow isn't really all that surprising since if he knew what to do in the first place the entire story would have been snuffed out in a day or so – or however long it took the NFL to figure out it has no idea, let alone any actual proof, that the footballs at the AFC title game were even all that deflated.
There are three rings to this circus.
This is truly one of the dumbest scandals in sports history, a molehill the NFL turned into a mountain.
It was damning.
It worked.
DeAndre Jordan spurns the Mavericks, and the Clippers laugh at someone else for a changeDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 22 days ago
For years and years, decades even, seemingly everything about the Los Angeles Clippers felt cloaked in failure and embarrassment.
There was the racist slumlord of an owner. There were endless losing seasons. There were terrible draft picks, bad trades and brutal injuries. There was a general malaise that surrounded the place. That everything occurred in the shadow of the glamorous Lakers, who turned L.A. into a basketball town, made everything worse.
So it's a short list when recounting the greatest days in Clippers history. The fact it's probably topped by the time NBA commissioner Adam Silver stripped Donald Sterling of ownership kind of says it all.
Wednesday was one of the good ones, though, perhaps the most unexpected of them: a day of tweets and emojis and jokes and foolishness befitting a free-agency circus. Only, this time the Clips weren't the punch line.
Cuban would never get in the door. The Clippers, of all people, got to keep their man, for four years, $87.6 million.
The Clippers? Yes, the Clippers.
Daniel Snyder's fight over Washington's nickname is a lost causeDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 23 days ago
Eventually the nickname and logo of Washington's NFL franchise is headed to the dustbin of history, where future generations will look back in bafflement that it was ever allowed.
This is undeniable.
You can support the name and logo all you want. You can decry the excesses of political correctness (no "Dukes of Hazzard"?) You can find a Native American cloaked in an RG3 jersey in an attempt to prove your point. That's fine. This column isn't about trying to change anyone's opinion because too many opinions have already changed that it doesn't matter.
You can hum the fight song in your sleep and still realize that the die is cast here. It's just a matter of time. That's just being practical.
Last year, team owner Daniel Snyder declared the nickname and logo would never change. That was last year though. This year is this year and the winds of change have swept swiftly across the nation.
This is a whole new day and Daniel Snyder is on the wrong side of quickly moving public sentiment.
The country isn't changing. It's changed.
In deflate-gate appeal, Tom Brady and Roger Goodell are locked in a battle for reps that likely can't be fully recoveredDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports 1 mth ago
Roger Goodell and Tom Brady, the NFL commissioner and the league's four-time Super Bowl quarterback, meet face-to-face in Manhattan on Tuesday morning. They will arrive with lawyers, teams of them.
Officially, Goodell is the judge and Brady is the convict seeking appellate relief from a four-game suspension and loss of about $1.8 million in salary for what the NFL deemed was his role in the deflation of footballs used in January's AFC championship game.
The fact the NFL never really proved the balls were actually, you know, deflated is just one reason this is like no other case in sports and why this is far more than trying to sort out the facts in a story with so few of them.
From the start, this has been built on the twin pillars of suspicion and perception, each side assuming the worst in each other's actions. It's been fueled by spin, speculation and media leaks, including the NFL allowing a story to run wild of trumped up allegations against Brady that was both extremely prejudicial and demonstrably untrue.
There will still be enough smoke to cry fire, which is what Wells' report always counted on.
That's just modern society.

July 31, 2015
AUSTIN (AP) - The Texas Longhorns today gave a collective ho-hum to their new role as No. 1.
Linebacker Sergio Kindle says you can't get all "big-headed."
Texas earned its first regular-season No. 1 ranking since 1984 with a 45-35 win Saturday over Oklahoma.
But the Longhorns (6-0, 2-0 Big 12) say the more important numbers are 11, 8, 7 and 16 -- the rankings of four of their next five opponents in a murderous schedule.
Quarterback Colt McCoy says the Longhorns have got to continue "to go play."
UT plays at home Saturday against No. 11 Missouri (5-1, 1-1), which was No. 3 until losing at home to No. 8 Oklahoma State. The Cowboys are next on the Longhorns schedule.
Road trips to No. 7 Texas Tech and No. 16 Kansas round out the tough stretch.

Clemson coach Brad Brownell had to like what he saw Friday as his Tigers overpowered Davidson, 85-54, at TD Arena to advance to the championship game of the 2013 Charleston Classic.
A strong finish to the first half and an even stronger start in the second half allowed the unbeaten Tigers to cruise to their fifth victory of the season.
Clemson will be playing for its second Charleston Classic title in five years when the Tigers meet Massachusetts Sunday in a 9 p.m. game televised on ESPN2. Massachusetts shocked No. 19 New Mexico, 81-65, to advance to the title game. Clemson won the 2008 Charleston Classic, beating Temple for the title.
Clemson used solid defense and great shooting to win going away against Davidson, which fell to 1-4 this year.
The Tigers led by more than 30 points for much of the second half, allowing Brownell to empty his bench.
"This was a good win for our team," Brownell said. "Davidson is very hard to guard, especially with one day of prep. Our defense did a great job. We were able to make them take tough shots."
K.J. McDaniels led Clemson with a career-high 22 points, including 3 of 4 from 3-point range. Damarcus Harrison finished with 20, going 8 of 10 from the field including 3 of 4 3-pointers. Eleven Tigers had points.
"I wanted to be aggressive," Harrison said. "We knew we had a size advantage. The main thing was attack. Our whole team played aggressive."
Any chance Davidson had of getting back into the game disappeared when senior forward De'Mon Brooks went down with an injury with 12:12 remaining while battling for a rebound. Trainers were attending to his upper right leg and he hobbled out of the arena while being supported by two trainers. He finished the game with 12 points and 4 rebounds.
The Tigers went on a 13-2 run and opened up a 24-15 lead midway through the first half. McDaniels, who finished the first half with 19 points, scored eight during that burst including back-to-back 3-pointers, one from the left wing and one from the right wing.
Davidson kept in touch and whittled it to five points, 33-28, with Brooks getting a pair of quick baskets in the bank, one a crowd-pleasing dunk. Brooks had an opportunity to cut Clemson's lead to three but missed a pair of free throws.
An 8-0 run by the Tigers put them up by 13 at 41-28 and they took a 10-point lead at the break.
The Tigers had an impressive first-half shooting performance, hitting 17 of 28 field goal attempts (60.7 percent) and were 5 for 9 from 3-point distance after starting 5 for 6. Davidson shot 43.8 percent (14 of 32).
Clemson continued its solid play and started the second half and soon was up 51-35. The Tigers continued to shoot well and were up by 34, 72-38, on an alley-oop dunk by Damarcus Harrison and Clemson's biggest lead was 36.
The Tigers shot 61 percent (33 of 54) and hit 10 of 19 3-pointers after a 5 for 6 start. Clemson also enjoyed a 36-23 rebounding advantage.

Aaron's Thing of the Week -- 16th September, 2009: A Farewell to a Chippendale
Patrick Swayze passed away just a couple days ago, and I'm actually really, really sad about it. The man delivered perhaps the greatest line in cinematic history, after all.
via videosift.com
Most men would have delivered that line and called it a career. But not Swayze. No, he went and made Point Break, one of the best terrible-but-I'm-not-turning-it-off-until-it's-over movies ever made. And Road House, for fuck's sake!
But the true highlight of Patrick Swayze's career didn't come on the big screen. No, it came on the small screen, and it featured another entertainer gone too soon.

RIP, Patrick Swayze, 1952-2009.

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
Liverpool and Manchester United are set to increase their interest in Borussia Dortmund attacker Marco Reus after learning that the German side had identified a replacement for him, according to the Metro.
Both sides have been heavily linked with the German international for some time now, and will now step up their efforts to bring him to the Premier League after learning that Dortmund are keen to bring Roma's Adem Ljajic to take his place.
Ljajic is reportedly unhappy with the Italian side and Dortmund will be keen to test the waters with an enquiry to see if they can twist his arm into pushing through a move.
Reus reportedly rejected a new deal with Dortmund last week, with his current contract with the German giants set to expire in 2017.
And although the club have been quiet on whether they will entertain bids for the player, his agent has recently talked up the rumours linking with a move to England.
"Marco would make any big European team stronger," Dirk Hebel said.
"That's why it's completely normal that a number of these major European teams are interested in signing him."
Rumour has it that Dortmund would be willing to part with Reus for a fee in the region of £50m as they fear losing him for half that next summer.

May Robert be an inspiration to all of us the next time we start to give in and reach for that cigarette or beer. Happy birthday.
Roast the government shutting down on Tuesday in honor of President Ford. Part of what made Ford a good president was that he rolled up his sleeves and worked hard as everyone who has offered an obituary or reminiscence of Ford's life reminded us last month. So, what could honor that attitude more than giving the country's postal workers and librarians the day off for a funeral they were not going to travel halfway across the country to attend? How about if everyone in the government had gone about their business in a quiet, dignified way that would have been a much more fitting tribute.
Toast the Reflector's new Web site. With a crisp, cleaner look and the addition of the Today's Reflector feature (the PDF version of the paper, just as you see it in newsstands), the Web site has been an instant success (at least to us) validating all the hard, diligent work those involved had to pour into it.
Roast technical difficulties that have prevented some people from being able to enjoy the new Web site. Expansive technology allows for endless things ... that can go wrong. It is an unfortunate part of the package, but once these technical challenges are out of the way, we're sure you'll love the new site as much as we do.

problem with canon pixma mp600
I have just purchased my first Mac (iMac). When I installed my Canon Pixma mp600, the computer recognized it and will print without any problem. However, the computer cannot read the level of the ink and does not give me access to change any printer preferences, such as speed, paper quality, etc. In OpenOffice, the "Preferences" button shows up but is greyed out.
I downloaded and installed the latest driver from the Canon Support site but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any other ideas?
Re: problem with canon pixma mp600
As a recent convert to Macs I also experienced this problem. It took me months to figure out how to get the same print options for the Pixma MP600 on OS X as on Windows.
If your drivers are installed correctly then the trick is just to find where the print options are on a Mac.
The Pixma options are found a little differently in each application, but once you find them in one application you will get the idea. Without a screen shot it is difficult to describe, but here it goes.
1. Select File | Print menu item from the application you want to print from.
2. There is usually an arrow button to the right of the drop-down list with your printers name. Click it when it is pointing down. (It is a chubby button, and doesnt look that much like an arrow to me ) (Screen 1)
3. This next step will look a little different depending on the application that you are trying to print from. There will be a drop-down list that appeared after clicking the chubby arrow button. Explore the options in this drop-down list to see all of the MP600 print settings that you are used to from Windows.
a. In OpenOffice this drop-down is in the middle with a line around it.
b. Mine shows Layout as the default option. (Screen 2)
c. When you click the "Layout" drop-down you can select Duplex and other settings and the corresponding options will appear below. (Screen 3)
Everyone thinks Macs are so easy, but it is difficult to make the transition. I find that many options are so well hidden on the Mac it takes me forever to find them. I had to look-up how to do screen shots for this response
Good luck. If my instructions dont work then you have a problem with your drivers and should call Canon.
The ink levels for the Pixma don't seem to show-up on a Mac, but at least this printer shows you their levels on the little screen.

FREEPORT (WIFR) -- A man is heading to prison after admitting to robbing a bank with a BB gun.
Derrick Holmes was sentenced on Friday to nearly six and a half years for hitting up the Kent Bank in Freeport back in September of 2013.
Holmes walked into the bank wearing gloves, dark glasses and a stocking cap over his face. Court documents say he stole more than $6,000, which he now has to repay.
Holmes also says he tired to rob the Community Bank in Orangville the same day, but employees locked to doors before he got inside.

I felt the exact same way, not impressed.
Knock lets you unlock your Mac by knocking on your iPhone, but not really
Knock is a new app available for iPhone that supposedly lets you unlock your Mac by simply knocking on your iPhone. It achieves this through using low power Bluetooth LE. Even if the Knock app isn't open, it should still work as long as Knock is running in the background. Or not.
To get up and running with Knock, you purchase the iPhone app and then download the Knock for Mac app via the Knock site (link below). Theoretically, you should just have to pair the two together for Knock to work. I tried this with two different compatible Macs, an iMac and a MacBook Air which were both running OS X Mavericks. On the iMac, just just flat out didn't work. On the MacBook Air, it worked once before my MacBook Air went to sleep and wasn't able to wake back up. I had to hard restart it to get it to turn back on.
I personally wasn't impressed with Knock. Not only for the reason that it didn't work well, but simply because I don't think typing in a desktop password on a computer is that daunting of a task. The app is bound to get killed in the background or take a few seconds to connect anyways. In the time spent fiddling with it, I could already have my Mac unlocked.
Either way, if you happen to try it, let me know if you were any more successful in getting it to work.

Knock lets you unlock your Mac by knocking on your iPhone, but not really
Works great for me.. no issues. Lets me have a much more complex password that no one in their right mind would want to type in normally.. I travel, and have my lock screen come up within a minute.. so unlock ALOT. this is a life saver..
Been using it for past day.. so far, none of the issue you mention..
I find it hard to believe your sleep issue was related to the App. It has nothing to do with sleep. Just unlocking from lock screen. They do say your mac must be Bluetooth 4.0 LE compatible for it to work. They've a return FAQ for those that get it and find their Macbook or iMac doesn't support it.
I don't think the real target is someone who sets their lock/screen saver 30 minutes to a few hours or for a desktop like an iMac. Not really worth it then.. just a cool factor. lol
Also, Tap the back of the phone or above/below the screen. I find tapping the lock screen can have issues because it might think your trying to slide to unlock the phone.
I have the newest versions of both the 27" imac apple released and the newest MacBook Air available on the market. they're compatible.
The sleep issue I mentioned because it only presented itself after using the Knock app for Mac to put my Mac to sleep. That's when the issue presented itself.
This is why I love iMore an honest review of a bad app. No sugar coating just straight to the point and valid! Great job
I appreciate their honesty, but I don't believe this to be a "bad" app. Just one with limited usefulness. I have been using the app and it works fine with one caveat: It seems I have to wake my Mac mini from sleep before I am able to knock to unlock. Maybe there is a setting somewhere I'm missing, but that's the only letdown so far.
Downloaded this app yesterday, it's been working perfectly for me all day long. Clearly these developers know what they are doing. The setup was easy, and somebody actually thought about the design. This article only makes me think that the writer doesn't know how to use her computer.. or understand technology apprerently.
There's no need to be rude, at all. Ally is well versed and very experienced at using a Mac and an iPhone. She's also not the only one on the team to have a less than pleasant experience with this app. We review things on what we see, not what we're supposed to see :)
I asked if others had the same issues because bugs don't always affect everyone, hence why I tried on not one, but two Macs. Not need to insult my intelligence. I'm capable of pairing a computer to a phone. Your douchebaggery is not necessary.
Knock! Application works great on my 1st gen MacBook Pro Retina. Me personally, I have a very long password, and a very short idle timer on my notebook (work/security requirements). This definitely makes logins easier, however so does my Yubi key (which I have far more faith in, than my iPhone). I think this is a clever application, however I feel it's a total hipster application (guy with goofy beard... in skinny jeans... knocking on his crotch... in some Soho wear house loft...). It's one of those, look what I can do with my Mac (TeeHee).
Hey there Ally and FT British guy. Part time British guy Part time Italian guy here. Anyway I got knock yesterday and honestly Im very impressed. I have a very nosey about to be X wife in the same house and have to use an 11 key PW to keep her at bay. So far Knock works just fine on my iMac (Almost latest version). I have found that if your Mac goes to sleep it takes a few seconds for everything to connect making it more practical to enter the PW. Also, contrary to the develepers claims the app must be running on your phone for it to work or at least on MY phone. That said if you are back and forth to your computer with the app running it's pretty much flawless from my experience so far. Give it another go, it's extremely polished from my perspective. Sorry your having issues. Even sorrier for Knock...
After almost 30 years on the IBM/MS platform and I now own a 15" MacBook Pro. I'm amazed every day by how much better things are in the Apple ecosystem, and this app is a great example.
I have had no issues, sleeping or otherwise, but I am on the most current version of everything. It's a great addition to my workflow.
I rather like the app, even if it was a little expensive. Seems to work pretty well. However I did discover that I had to "Wake" the system before I could Knock and auto login. Soi built an extra little script myself to automatically lock / wake the screen using a keyboard shortcut meaning I don't have to touch my mac and I can knock straight back into it.
I found it helpful as I have a very long password, and yes I could change it but why? when this app makes it simple for me to access my mac and hard for others.
I'm having a recurring problem with Knock on my MacBook Pro. It seems to be that something gets out of sequence during the unlock phase which, after giving a double knock on my iPhone, leaves a single "Knock ring" visible on the screen and disables the keyboard. You can use the mouse for certain activities like clicking on the dock, opening Activity Monitor etc. but you can't click on the Apple menu to restart the computer or the Knock app in Activity Monitor to kill it. The computer is effectively frozen and needs to be rebooted. Sometimes a short press on the power button allows you to initiate a restart but more often than not, you have to keep it pressed for 10 seconds and do a power off override.

Man's best friend recently turned actress #Minissha-Lamba 's worst enemy. Last Thursday, a stray dog who has been creating a menace in her locality, attacked her maid and her 14-year-old Tibetan Terrier, Misty.
She recalls the horrible evening, "I was all set to attend a film premier of, It's A Wonderful Afterlife. My maid had taken Misty to a grooming salon, five minutes away from my place for a hair cut. When they were returning, a stray dog ran towards Misty and bit her on the back and her leg. When my maid picked up Misty in her arms, the dog further bit her on the arm."
The actress recalls that the maid came home carrying Misty in her arms, both covered in blood, "I was horrified when I saw blood all over them. For a minute it was difficult to figure out who was bleeding. Misty looked petrified. I called my vet and rushed her to him. And sent my maid to my family doctor for treatment. I was panicking as I didn't know the extent the injuries were until I they both got medical help."
The vet cleaned Misty's wound and gave her a few shots. The actress calmed down when she was told there was nothing to worry about. She doesn't plan to have the stray picked by the BMC, "If I complain I know they will come and put him down. I don't want that happening. It's another cruel act. All we can do is be more careful in the future and try and avoid this dog's path," concludes the dog lover

ROSEVILLE, CA - Roseville police say an argument between two roommates resulted in a fatal shooting Monday.
Police spokesperson Dee Dee Gunther said Roseville police received a call regarding a man inside of a home on the 100 block of Hickory St. with a gun at 3:15 p.m. The initial report was quickly followed by several calls reporting sounds of shots fired.
Gunther said responding officers found 54-year-old Kevin William Spindler dead in the front yard, apparently shot by his 48-year-old roommate Joseph Arthur Nunn.
According to the initial investigation, the men were arguing when Spindler was shot with a semi-automatic handgun. Spindler then stumbled out to the front yard and collapsed, said Gunther.
Nunn was arrested at the scene without incident and held without bail on suspicion of murder.

Bicyclists Angered as Citi Bike Stations Uproot Public Racks
Posted By Sherrell Dorsey On May 2, 2013 @ 10:26 am In Biking,Manhattan,Transportation | 5 Comments
NYC cyclists are standing their ground [4] against the new Citi Bike [5] share program's attempt to rip up public bike racks and replace them with new branded stations. Last week, one group of Battery Park City [6] riders found out that a bike rack on South End Avenue will be torn down to make way for one of the program's new units. According to a sign, bike owners will have until May 5th to remove their property from the racks located right outside of the Gateway Plaza housing complex or risk losing their bikes.
"We think the Citi Share program is great," said Manon Chevallerau to DNAInfo [4], a resident of Gateway for the past eight years. "But why on Earth would they take away our bike rack — it goes against the whole ethos of program [sic] I think. "
Shelly Mossey, owner of cargo bike delivery company Urban Mobility Project [8] isn't a fan of the city bullying long-time cyclists into submission. Though he's reached out to the long list of companies involved in the bike share and subsequent bike rack removal program, Mossey hasn't received much response from the Department of Transportation, Citi Bike, Transportation Alternatives, The Battery Park City Authority [9], or Gateway Plaza. Mossey told Gothamist [10] that he's willing to get arrested to protect his bike rack if it comes to that.
According to DNAInfo [4], a DOT spokesman stated that the share stations are being installed at the request of the building property owner and are presently looking for an alternative location for the rack which is not a DOT rack. Despite protests and opposition, it doesn't look as though the cyclists will get their way. Change is a comin' whether they like it or not.

HOUSTON-- Rookies aren't the only ones thrilled to see their names on an NFL jersey this exhibition season. Sixth-year veteran Ted Ginn Jr. loves the new look of his 49ers uniform, which he'll pull on for Saturday's exhibition at Houston. Jerseys,Where to get NFL jerseys, Custom jerseys, China jerseys, Cheap jerseys, Baseball jerseys, Basketball jerseys
That's right, "Ginn Jr.," just as it reads on his back, at last.
"It's something I've been trying to do for a long time," Ginn said, "but wasn't able to do until RG3 came into the league."
RG3 would be Robert Griffin III, [Jerseys]last year's Heisman Trophy winner who was drafted second overall by the Washington Redskins. Sharing initials with the league's commissioner, Roger Goodell, perhaps carries clout.
This season, [Where to get NFL jerseys] the NFL is allowing players to wear generational titles on their uniforms. Some call it the "RG3 Rule." Ginn calls it great.
"When you think about the pros, it should be like that," Ginn said. "I never understood why they didn't put 'Jr.' or 'III' on the backs of jerseys. Every day I get to see 'Jr.' on my jersey."
The first day he saw it, [Custom jerseys] he took a picture on his phone and sent it to his father, an accomplished coach at Glenville High inCleveland.
Ted Ginn Sr. [China jerseys]not only loved the picture, he nearly became a member of the 49ers this summer, too. Coach Jim Harbaugh invited the elder Ginn to intern on his staff as part of the Bill Walsh Minority Coaching Fellowship, which Walsh set up 25 years ago in his penultimate season as the 49ers coach.
"It was hard for him to
get up and walk away from the (Glenville) program," Ginn Jr. said. "He's more dedicated to the kids than the actual coaching."
Aside from coaching accolades, [Cheap jerseys] Ginn's father set up a school in 2007 for at-risk youth, the Ginn Academy. "Deep down inside, I think (Harbaugh) would try to keep him around," Ginn Jr. added.
The 49ers re-signed Ginn in March as their return specialist and backup receiver, roles he's held since they acquired him in a 2010 trade with the Miami Dolphins. Before signing his one-year contract, Ginn took free agency visits to the Detroit Lions, [Cheap jerseys]Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings.
Ginn couldn't participate in the 49ers' offseason practices while recovering from minor knee surgery. He injured his right knee in the 49ers' playoff-opening win over the New Orleans Saints, and his absence was noticed in the NFC Championship game defeat as two punt returns by Kyle Williams went askew.
Ginn has shown no signs of knee trouble in training camp. He started at wide receiver in the exhibition-opening win over Minnesotaon Aug. [Basketball jerseys]10 but wasn't used as a returner. Harbaugh declined Thursday to divulge whether Ginn would field punts inHouston.
Ginn said his time away from the field this offseason helped him gain: a) more upper-body muscle, (b) a greater appreciation for football, and, (c) a tighter bond with his family, including his fiancee, Krystle McCoy, and their 2-year-old twins, Kyrsten and Ted Ginn III.
Yes, someday there may be a uniform for TG3. Move over, RG3.
Saturday's game marks the 49ers' first inHoustonsince an October 2009 loss to the Texans, when wide receiver Michael Crabtree made his 49ers debut after a contract stalemate. "I've grown a lot," Crabtree said. "Just really going on my fourth year, that's crazy. Each year I get better and better, stronger and stronger, (and) learn how to be a pro."
The 49ers have 12 players whose hometowns are in Texas, including rookie safety Michael Thomas, a Houston native and Stanford product. The state with the most hometowns among 49ers: California, 14.

During This Week with George Stephanopoulos on ABC, Ann Coulter was spewing her usual bigoted bullshit while plugging yet another one of her books (go look it up if you care to find out what it's called/where you can purchase it, and then do me a favour -- don't come back).
I like Ann in the way I like any train wreck. She says and does stupid things, and it's entertaining. But I really think she needs to spice up her act a bit, because it's starting to get trite. If you're going to be a homophobic dunce, then at least do it while under the influence and dressed in a designer dress. Gays like to be discriminated against in style, thank you very much. Has Paris Hilton taught her nothing?
Here is Ann's latest enlightenment:
"I think what — the way liberals have treated blacks like children and many of their policies have been harmful to blacks, at least they got the beneficiary group right. There is the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow laws. We don't owe the homeless. We don't owe feminists. We don't owe women who are desirous of having abortions, but that's — or — or gays who want to get married to one another. That's what civil rights has become for much of the left."
When asked whether immigrant rights were not civil rights, she responded:
"No. I think civil rights are for blacks . . . What have we done to the immigrants? We owe black people something. We have a legacy of slavery. Immigrants haven't even been in this country."
You know when you were little and your mother told you it was important to do the right and decent thing in life? Ann's mother must've added, "but only when it's owed," because there is no other explanation as to how someone can grow up to be so remarkably selfish:

Cellino declared himself 'ashamed' and said he was ready to 'jump from the window' after the Football League confirmed he had failed their owners' and directors' test in the wake of his tax offence conviction in Italy.
The announcement put the skids on his Eleonora Sport company completing the 75 per cent purchase it agreed at the start of February from current owners Gulf Finance House Capital.
GFH Capital remain interested in the project if Cellino is successful in an appeal, which must be launched in the next 14 days, but he appeared less than positive in an interview with the Guardian on Monday evening.
He said: "I'm not a dishonest man. If they say I did this, I am stupid. Why would I do something like this? Because I am a fool - I am stupid.
"There's different justice in Italy. I prefer the English way, but I am in Italy unfortunately. I pay millions and millions at clubs and they [the courts] say I tried to screw them over for a small amount. It's stupid. I could pay that tomorrow.
"I am not a dishonest crook. If I made a mistake, it was not on purpose. I'm shocked, I'm very shocked. I feel like I will disappear. I am so ashamed of myself, you have no idea. It's not about the money at the moment.
"I didn't try and do anything bad to Leeds, to anyone - I just wanted to do something good. I'm so shocked that I feel like I will jump from the window right now. I feel so ashamed.
"Why did they take two months to wait for the decision of the Italian court? I could have delayed the trial for one or two years if I had wanted."
A statement from the Football League read: "At its meeting yesterday evening (Sunday), the Board of The Football League considered the eligibility of Massimo Cellino under its Owners' and Directors' Test.
"The Board considered detailed legal advice with regard to the application of its regulations within the context of a decision made under Italian law.
"Mr Cellino was recently found guilty beyond reasonable doubt by a Court in Sardinia of an offence under Italian tax legislation relating to the non-payment of import duties on a boat. This resulted in a fine of €600,000, an order for the payment of trial costs and the confiscation of the boat in question.
"Having fully considered the matter, the Board agreed unanimously that the decision of the Italian Court does constitute a disqualifying condition under its Owners' and Directors' Test.
"The relevant disqualifying condition being that Massimo Cellino has been convicted of an offence involving acts that would reasonably be considered to be dishonest.
"In line with Football League regulations, Massimo Cellino is entitled to appeal against the Board's decision within 14 days. In such circumstances, The League would seek to expedite the process to deliver certainty to all parties in the shortest possible timeframe."
Leeds responded by saying they are "disappointed" by the decision.
"The club and its shareholders are disappointed at the decision of the Football League not to approve Massimo Cellino as a director of Leeds United FC.
"However, the Board and Executive Management of the club, will continue discussions with the Football League and Eleonora Sport to find a solution that is suitable to all parties.
"Our shareholders continue to support the club directly or through additional investments as has always been the case.
"We would like to reassure the fans of the continuity of our great club."
