Mac Specs: Macbook Pro 1st Gen with upgraded Ram and Hard drive
I have a 1st Generation MacBook Pro (Week 11 production) and have already upgraded the Ram to 2Gb. I was running OSX 10.4.11 with the stock 80Gb Toshiba 5200 drive which came in the laptop.
When I got the iPhone 4 I realised Tiger wasn't going to cut the mustard anymore and besides, I had been dodging the upgrade bullet too long. So here is what I did, and found out, along the way...
I thought if I was going to go from Tiger to Snow Leopard 10.6.4 I might as well get a new hard drive as the one in the laptop was the original and it had done some hefty work in it's time. So, after a day of Googling and thinking about it I forked out for a Seagate Momentus 7200.4 320Gb hard drive along with a little External Caddy for the Toshiba drive which i would be removing from my laptop.
I had read that the new Seagate drive could cause Kernel panics and that it might need a jumper moving to operate at SATA 1.5 rather than it's speedier native SATA 3.0. I also read that the drive shouldn't be the version with a 'G' in it's product number and that it also uses a lot more battery life.
Well, on the hard drive front, I did get the version with the product number ST9320423AS (No 'G' in there) and found zero way to change any jumper so it went into the laptop as god intended. It doesn't seem to generate any extra heat (I run SMS fan control for temp readout as I always have) and there are no vibrations, kernel panics or mad extra use of battery power. Not that I use it extensively running off the battery, but still.
Installing the hard drive. I have done this oh so many times for other people on PC desktops, Laptops and Apple laptops. When it was my own I almost died twice with fear of messing it up. I took my time. To breathe. And it went fine. My only warnings would be
1) Use a plastic credit card to pop the top cover off
2) No, really use a plastic card or 'spudger'
3) The ribbon cables connecting the hard drive, when you are unsticking these from the rest of the computer...take your time. I did because I know how easily it is to damage those ribbon cables and when you do, no amount of tinfoil and sellotape is going to mend them.
With it all back together I turned it on, waited for the Question mark folder symbol on the screen, put in the Snow Leopard install disc, turned the computer off by holding the power button, held down 'D' on the keyboard and at the same time pressed the power button and waited.
And waited.
And... then, eventually, the SL install screen came up. I went right to 'Utilities' at the top of the screen and choose disc utility which I used to format the hard drive with the 'Mac OS Journaled' Setting and renamed the drive as 'Macintosh HD'
From then on in it was just a matter of following the on screen prompts and that was it.
I did change the look of the UI to be more like Tiger (background, home bar etc etc) but apart from that it's nippier, starts up and shuts down so fast and is happy with new versions of software (which I kept having to ignore when I was on Tiger)
I did buy the Snow Leopard Box set at retail and I know people say 'Just buy the £29 upgrade disc, it works fine going from Tiger to Snow Leopard' And maybe the more fool me, but you know what? It might be fine in some peoples eyes to play around with dodgy copies of software but there is no way I am going to mess around with the Operating system.
I also got iWork and iLife on disc with it which I never had so all is good.
So, to summarise: Snow Leopard 10.6.4 works fine on a first generation Macbook pro 1.8Ghz Core Duo. The Seagate Momentus 7200.4 320Gb hard drive works well in the machine and Snow Leopard works like a charm on them both.
I hope this helps someone out there. I couldn't find one straight talking answer to my questions when I searched so thought this might be useful to someone. Some time.

Thank goodness he calls Paul Allen "Paul" and not the stilted "Mr. Allen" that has always sounded to me like serfs addressing royalty. Paul is the owner, for sure, and certainly gets all the respect he deserves for that. But that respect does not need to come with genuflecting nor fawning.
If Neil can bring that level of respect coupled with comfortable humanity to the job, he'll be off to a great start with the entire staff.
Timbers - a terrific 80 minute team playing in a 90 minute sport....
If they catch him, will he then be "at small"?
Both well deserved!
When Bill lied, we wanted to hide.
But when Cheney lied, people died.
This from a raging centrist! (yes, we still exist)
Agreed! I visited the Pinball HOF with my family. What a hoot. Found a game I used to play in college in the 1970's, running perfectly. Only took a few games for the "muscle memory" to return! :-)
I'm in greater Portland area and own a pinball game called "Demolition Man" and it's not working. Does anyone know who I can call to get it fixed? Thanks!
It's about time we gave LaMarcus a "La-Marcus Al-dridge" chant at a game. Six Years and nothing....
The guy shows up every game, gives us 20+ and 8+ and often carries the whole team for a quarter at a time or more. He gets doubled constantly and still gets his points and plays big minutes against bruisers. The fact that he's not flashy like Gerald or Marcus Camby shouldn't dim fan's enthusiasm.
You guys in the upper bowl who usually start the chant - wait until LaMarcus is having another monster game and let him know we care!!!!
Lots of wisdom in your words. Trust but verify (or in this case -solidify!)
Can you imagine the sound of the standing ovation when he next appears in the Rose Garden? The place will literally shake to the rafters.
It is a damn shame, but as he has always been, it's another class act by Brandon.
By doing this rather than making a futile attempt at a comeback, be gives the Blazers cap space at the end of this season, while still allowing them to retain the amnesty provision in case they need to waive someone else. Although that is unlikely, it's better to have the option than not.
I do hope the Blazers offer him something in the front office, or behind the bench. That would be very cool.
So, by the same logic would they have hired 250 people if they were preparing to shrink? How can the PR folks even write this with a straight face?
Follows all the key rules of obfuscation:
1. Changes the components so it isn't apples to apples, but the number appears much smaller. You CAN fool some of the people some of the time, after all.
2. Changes the timing so we're talking 2011 dollars rather than the numbers when it will be built in ~2017. (and the way it was figured before - so again not apples to apples)
3. Cuts the number of streetcars - either you needed them or you didn't. If you did, they'll just get added later once the project is out of public scrutiny (aka: hiding the ball). If you don't need them, then there IS a ridership issue.
4. Ducks the big issue. The project has been sold to help with traffic on 43 (we know it won't of course) - but now the new "cheaper" route may "impact" traffic in John's Landing. Somehow, one doubts that the impact will be positive. Of course, the new lower cost still won't address how massive development in the Foothills area of LO (the REAL objective here) will increase traffic congestion in downtown LO, which is where the only real Rt. 43 traffic problem lives anyway.
5. The only hope of stopping this runaway train (sorry!) is if the good folks of LO don't let their politicians pull the wool over their eyes. If those elected officials in LO with serious, obvious conflict of interest issues in this project would recuse themselves, maybe an honest discussion can ensue.
Time for everyone to put a sock in it. Too many people are focused beyond Saturday. USC is no pushover, even at Autzen. After Saturday, if Oregon wins, THEN it's time to have some of these conversations (no disrespect to OSU, but they aren't even in the same league right now).
Would love to see how the questions are worded. Anyone who has done polling for political purposes can tell you that if not VERY carefully handled, the wording can absolutely determine the outcome. Since Mr. Williams and the other LO folks behind this are pushing for a positive response, they may well have already made sure the result will fit their goal.
Hopefully, those on the LO Council who are opposed to this waste of money will demand to see the questions ahead of time, and if need be enlist a second polling organization to assure they are unbiased in their structure.
We live near the river. Let's see: rotting garbage out by the street = rats. How lovely.
As an OLCC member I can attest that Scott is the real deal. He's personable, humble and if I didn't know he was playing in the PGA I'd never know his actual game was at that level.
MY take is it is a coaching issue, but a different one. When the Timbers are ahead, coach Spencer has them fall back into a "bunker" defense at about the 65-70 minute mark. So, while that can obviously work sometimes, it puts them in an entirely different mental state. Couple that with less than top of the league defenders and you have a prescription for a shelling of the box.
Always a class act! Nice to see him officially recognized as such.
Talking "to" players is one thing. I understand the labor practice issues that have to be carefully managed.
But not being able to talk "about" them is just loony.
For a small investment in a wireless (3G/4G) fail over connection - this could have been avoided. The loss in productivity from an internet connection outage swamps the $ it takes to get this equipment in place and the small monthly charge the wireless companies have for "standby" bandwidth.

The Canandaigua VA Medical Center is trying to get the word out to veterans about job opportunities and health services available to them. There will be two veterans job and health fairs coming up in the next Month.
Veterans coming home face a number of challenges and the VA wants them to know they are ready to help them find work and provide health care services for them.
Kai Chitaphong works at the Canandaigua VA. "There's two things we want to do and that's have veterans come out and be matched with a job. And talk to potential employers and employers who are interested in hiring veterans. There's a lot of great reasons to hire veterans."
Chitaphong adds "We want veterans to come and talk to potential employers. And the other piece is we have healthcare providers and enrollment people that are going to be there to enroll them if they have not already been enrolled in VA services."
Here's the information about the upcoming veterans job and health fairs.
The first is may 18th at the Canandaigua Medical Center, Building 5 Auditorium from 9 to 4.
The second is June 9th at the Rochester VA Outpatient Clinic from 8 to 3.
The VA is also reaching out to employers who want to hire veterans. For information on participating in the Veterans Job Fair, or for assistance from the VA in any matter related to hiring veterans call Jennifer Nalley at (585) 463-2722 or click here.

How to Fix Shower and Water Pressure
Sometimes what seems like a big problem has a simple fix! Before you go spending your hard-earned at the hardware store, try these steps. All too often, what is required is simply a little easy maintenance.
1Turn off the water for safety first.Ad
2Carefully unscrew the shower head and give it a good rinse out in clear clean water, and check the pipe opening and head are clear of any obstructions. Lime, calcium and bits of debris can build up behind shower heads and tap diffusers, especially in new houses or after renovations, when building dust and bits of rubble seem to get everywhere! Deposits occurring in the water can also build up in pipes and fixtures as a result of water passing through them.
3Using an old toothbrush, give the spray outlets (the often tiny little holes in your shower head) a jolly good scrub. A paste made with bicarb and warm water works well, but don't use vinegar as this can damage some tap-ware finishes.
4Check your water bills for the last year or so. Have you noticed a marked increase? If yes, you could have a leak in the supply pipes. If you haven't just installed a pool or spa, call a plumber to do a thorough inspection.Ad
We could really use your help!

do you want amp or refund. this is bs.
@Rhesketh ; we all know you've seen the thread, you've even checked buyers page. a reply would be nice.

of course I want the amp that's why I sent the payment 2 months ago lol, but I don't have a amp on the way still.
he said he would be shipping it today and still nothing so idk
sounds like he sold the amp you sent him the coin for, and is now waiting on another one to send to you.is that right>
ill hear something then long periods of time silence so I guess well see, he has my personal email also, hopefully the amp just is sent and everything works out good.
Bobby Hesketh: Lol I sent him the amp a month and a half ago and he said he was in the hospital when they tried to deliver it.. It's getting taken care if though.
Bobby Hesketh:Thanks for bringing it to my attention though. I talked to him last night and I didn't even know he posted that
being in military I understand busy im always here then gone again I don't know him personally Im not trying to talk bad about him I just want amp and ill be on my way.
chill-axe seems like you'll get your amp
I was in hospital he said he sent the amp but ups lost it lol, they did not try to deliver it haha
Hey if it doesn't show up today I will just send you another one.. Ups is working on finding it for me. They looked on my account and don't have any record of all three that I shipped out that day but the other two guys got there's.. Just give it one more day and let me know and If ups calls me back later today with some info I will let you know.. that was month ago
tell him to call them asap, not to wait for a call... biggest fob off
even if ups did try to deliver it they would of left a note that says sorry we missed you we will try again on such and such date and of course I would of gone and picked it up lol not just left it
that's correct, but hows is rhesketh to blaim for ups loosing your amp? and he has said it's getting sorted.....
im not blaming him for ups, but still month later and no amp on its way, even said he would be shipping it today and still nothing you have to wonder when it will actually be sent.

Hopefully some musician more qualified than I (I've got my trusty Uke right here, but unfortunately my mic isn't quite good enough to give this thing justice on a recording) will toss in a catchy chorus and set this to music. I imagine something a little Arlo Guthrie-- how else could you pull off the song's best joke: "In excitement I click on the Blue post, / To see if it's "Soon," or "!!!" or " If you have any complaints or feedback regarding a Community Manager, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. Thanks!" Funny. And if someone does put it together, drop us an email about it-- we'll be sure to play it on the podcast.

You tease us with "When it's ready" and even with "Soon."
And you get flaming pumpkins as your forum toon.
But even though whiners, they come and they go,
I really must say, CMs, I love you so.
In excitement I click on the "Blue" post,
To see if it's "Soon," or "!!!" or " If you have any complaints or feedback regarding a Community Manager, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. Thanks!"
So to you CMs, I raise up a toast,
For I sure don't envy you, our definitive host.
No thanks do you get for a job that's well done,
And for giving us a game that is such great fun.
So CMs I hope this ode made you grin
And please remember you really are "teh win!"

The Top 25 Fictional Stoners In Cinematic History
While the negative effects of smoking marijuana have been portrayed on film for over seventy years, the current age of stoner-friendly cinema can largely be credited to one Judd Apatow. As the unofficial ringleader of the Frat Pack, he wrote, directed and produced a veritable bumper crop of pro-Mary Jane films over the last half-dozen years or so. Films like Knocked Up, Pineapple Express and Superbad worked very hard to smash the stigma that the Reagan administration attached to the cannabis plant, and their tremendous success at the box office unquestionably played a role (albeit, likely, a minor one) in the "Legalize It" movement that is slowly gaining steam in both Red and Blue states.
Although Apatow had nothing to do with this weekend's release of the latest entrant in the stoner-friendly canon, the medieval fantasy Your Highness (get it?), we here at TheFABLife figured now is as good a time as any to countdown our all-time, Top 25 fictional stoners in cinematic history. From the trailblazing likes of Cheech Marin to the nonsense-spewing Jay of Clerks fame, from the highly paranoid/confessional behavior of Nicole Kidman's character in Eyes Wide Shut to the perpetually buzzed Wooderson in Dazed and Confused, we hope you enjoy this look at cinema's most baked characters, maaaaaan!
These Lakers Are Making Me Hungry
Celebrities are often seen lurking courtside at the Staples Center for L.A. Lakers games. Sometimes you get your traditional cool celebs like Jack Nicholson and Leo DiCaprio just chillin' in the stands, sometimes you get the mind-blowing combination of Chloe Sevigny and Pauly D, and sometimes you get a bunch of people who are so starving they don't care who sees them stuff their faces. At last night's game, there must have been something in the air that was making people feel hunger pangs, because everyone was chowing down. Take a look at who was eating what as the Lakers defeated the Cavs.

Rachel McAdams Looks Gorgeous At Morning Glory Premiere
We have an irrational love for Rachel McAdams, so forgive us if we fawn over her for a moment, we think she looked great at the premiere for her latest film last night. McAdams is currently starring in Morning Glory, which looks to be the kind of movie you and your parents will end up seeing together over Thanksgiving because while it stars McAdams and hot hot Patrick Wilson, it also has Diane Keaton and Harrison Ford to bridge the generation gap. (McAdams and Keaton already starred together in The Family Stone, and dammit if that's one of those good-bad movies we can't help watching that every time it's on HBO.)
While we love McAdams' look on the red carpet, and we're also kind of a fan of Diane Keaton's leather dress, some of the other celebs look a bit wind-swept, no? (We're looking at you, Hoda and Harrison.) Check them all out below.

A laser scribing system and method is described. In the system, a film formed on a substrate is irradiated with laser beam which is focused on a limited portion of the film in order to remove the portion and produce a groove. Laser beam used for eliminating the portion of film formed on a substrate is deprived of its border portion in advance of the focusing. Sperical aberration is suppressed due to this elimination.
1. A method for scribing a film formed on a substrate comprising:
expanding a laser beam from an eximer laser;
eliminating a border portion from the expanded laser beam;
focusing the laser beam shaped by the elimination on said substrate and removing the irradiated portion of said film.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein said eximer laser emitted from said eximer laser has less than 400 namo meters in wavelength.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein said film is severed into a plurality of separated parts by grooves which are formed by removing corresponding portions of said film.
4. The method of claim 2 wherein the expanding step is carried out only in one direction.
5. The method of claim 4 wherein the expanded laser beam is focused with respect to the direction perpendicular to the expanding direction.
6. The method of claim 5 wherein the focusing step is carried out repeatedly on said substrate while said substrate is shifted to the focusing direction, so that a plurality of grooves are formed on said substrate.
7. The method of claim 1 wherein said laser beam is pulsed.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the pulse width of the pulsed laser beam is less than 50 namo seconds.
9. The method of claim 1 where said expanding step is mainly implemented with respect to one direction and the laser beam deprived of the border portion becomes a flat beam having a line in cross section.
10. The method of claim 1 further comprising a step of eliminating the edge portions of said laser beam having a line in cross section.
This is .Iadd.a reissue of application Ser. No. 07/188,766, filed May 3, 1988, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,865,686 which is .Iaddend.a divisional application of Ser. No. 097,190, filed Sep. 16, 1987.Iadd., now U.S. Pat. No. 4,861,964.Iaddend..
This invention relates to laser scribing system and method.
Besides photolithography, laser processing is well-known to process transparent conductive film which are used for liquid crystal device. YAG lasers have been used as laser beam sources in such a laser processing, the wave length being 1.06 microns for example. In such a laser processing, a groove is formed by continuously irradiation of a sequence of spot-shaped laser beams in the form of a line prescribed in a substrate to be processed. Because of this, the process condition, such as the energy density of a laser beam, the scanning speed, and so forth must be controlled in accordance with the characteristics of the transparent conductive film to be processed such as thermal conductivity. For this reason, it is difficult to improve the yield of product, when commercialized in mass-production, without compromising the specification of the product. Further, the laser energy 1.23 eV per photon which corresponds to the wavelength of 1.06 microns, is very small as compared with 3 to 4 eV which represents an energy gap range of a usual transparent conductive film, such as tin oxide, indium oxide, indium tin oxide, zinc oxide, or the like. Still further, in a laser processing using Q-switching operation, laser beams have to scan at 30 to 60 cm/min with 0.5 to 1 W per spot of laser beam which has 50 microns in sectional diameter, 40 mm in focal distance, 3 KHz in pulse frequency and 60 namo seconds in pulse width. Due to such a high energy, cracking may cause on an underlying layer on which the transparent conductive layer has been formed and make the device defective. The damage of the underlying surface is caused in the shapes of scales.
In addition, with a prior art laser processing, a number of fine grooves can not be formed with 10 to 50 microns in interval, and etching must be implemented after laser processing because the imperfect formation of grooves. Further, the lasing condition must be monitored for each process to comply with the fluctuation of the output of the laser, especially the fluctuation at an initial output power. This invention is an improvement of Japanese Patent Application No. Sho 59-211,769.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a laser scribing system and a laser scribing method capable of removing a portion of a film completely on a substrate without damaging the underlying surface.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a laser scribing system and a laser scribing method in which spherical aberration is suppressed.
In order to accomplish the above objects, a laser scribing system makes use of a flat-shaped laser beam with its cross section having 20 to 200 microns, e.g., 150 microns in width and 10 to 60 cm, e.g., 30 cm in length, with which a line on a substrate to be processed is simultaneously irradiated and scribed. Preferably, the laser beam has less than 400 nm in wavelength and is pulsed with a pulse width less than 50 namo meters. By means of such a pulsed laser beam, optical energy absorption efficiency is enhanced by a factor of more than 100 and, eventually the process time is shortened by a factor of more than 10, as compared with prior art.
Further, in accordance with the invention, a border portion of the laser beam is taken away so that the effect of spherical aberration is limited. Because of this, the edge of a processed portion on the substrate becomes clear and a sharp boundary can be obtained, even if a groove is desired to be formed on a substrate with 30 cm in length and 10 to 30 microns, e.g., 20 microns in width.
FIG. 1 is a cross section view of a laser scribing system in accordance with the present invention.
FIGS. 2(A) to 2(D) are explanatory views showing the cross sections of laser beam.
FIGS. 3(A) and 3(B) are a plan view and a side view of a substrate processed in accordance with the invention.
FIGS. 4(A) and 4(B) are plan and section view showing another embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, a laser processing system is illustrated. In the figure, the system comprises a substrate holder and a laser radiating system. The laser radiating system consists of an eximer laser 1 (KrF) distributed by Questec Inc. (wavelength=248 nm; energy gap=5.0 eV), an expander 2, a slit 3 and a cylindrical lense 4. A laser beam 20 emitted from the laser 1 having a cross section of 16 mm�20 mm with a power density of 5.6�10-2 mJ/mm2 (FIG. 2(A)) is expanded by the expander 2 with respect to the direction perpendicular to the drawing sheet of FIG. 1. The expanded laser beam 21 having a cross section of 16 mm�300 mm (FIG. 2(B)) is deprived of its periphery (border) by means of the slit 3. The deprived laser beam 22 having a cross section of 2 mm�300 mm (FIG. 2(C)) is focused on a transparent conductive film 11, such as a tin oxide film (energy gap=3.5 eV) formed on a substrate 10 which is mounted on a base 25. The width of the laser beam on the film 11 is 20 microns. The base 25 can be moved in X and Y directions so that the laser beam can be focused on the desired position.
The width of the slit 3 is determined in accordance with the case. However, the width must be chosen so that the laser beam can focused to the width in which spherical aberration can be neglected. Namely the performance of the lense indirectly determines the width of focused laser beam. The pulse width of the laser beam is less than 50 namo second, e.g., 20 namo seconds and the repetition frequency is 1-100 Hz, e.g., 10 Hz. According to experimental, a perfect groove was formed on a fifth-layered transparent film by laser scribing with pulsed laser beams at 10 Hz/pulse, and a plurality of separated parts of the film were produced with 20 microns in width and 15 mm in interval only within the process time of 0.8 minute. After ultrasonic-cleaning, the underlying surface was not damaged. It took only 5 to 10 minutes to complete the whole process.
The formation of groove can be repeatedly carried out while a substrate to be processed is periodically moved in the direction perpendicular to the groove. By this method, a plurality of grooves are formed in parallel with 30 cm in length and 20 microns in width at the interval of 400 micron respectively, as shown in FIG. 3. Namely, the substrate is shifted to the perpendicular direction by 15 mm after each irradiation of one pulse of laser beam. Of course, by selectively shifting the substrate on which adjacent irradiation portions are arranged with no interval, a plurality of strips with 20 microns in width at 400 microns interval in between can be formed.
By the similar process to the above experiment, a non-single crystalline semiconductor film doped with hydrogen or fluorine was formed with 1000 Å in thickness on a substrate. The film was severed into a plurality of parts by laser scribing with pulsed laser beams having a wavelength of less than 400 nm with 10 namo seconds in pulse width and 2.3 mJ/mm2 in average output power. The underlying surface was not damaged.
Referring to FIGS. 4(A) and 4(B), another embodiment is illustrated. In this embodiment, a superconducting coil is manufactured. On the (100) plane of a substrate 31 made of magnesium oxide (MgO), a superconducting film with the (001) plane is formed. The superconducting film is made of a ceramic generally expressed by a molecular formula; ABCu3 O6-8, where A stands for one or more rare earth element and B stands for one or more alkali earth metal, e.g., YBa2 Cu3 O6-8. By the similar process as explained in the description of the preceding embodiment, a number of grooves 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, r-1, r-2, r-3, t-1, t-2, t-3, b-1, b-2 and b-3 are formed. In so doing, obturating means such as a pair of screens to change the length of the laser beam in cross section by eliminating the ends thereof has to be provided between the laser 1 and the expander 2, or between the expander 2 and the slit 3. Namely, after forming the groove l-1, the length of the laser beam is shortened by the elimination and scribes the groove l-2. And, by the same manner, remaining grooves aligned in the same direction are formed in sequence. Then the substrate 31 is turned by 90�, and the grooves t-1 to b-3 are scribed. As a result, a superconducting coil is manufactured in the form of a spiral coil.
The invention should not be limited to the above particular embodiments and many modifications and variations may cause to those skilled in the art. For example, there may be provided, between the beam expander and the surface to be processed, an integrater, a condensing lense, a projection lense and so forth in order to make the optical system more precise.

(Mar 26, 2010) It was reported on March 8, 2010, that a legislative proposal on electronic registration of births, marriages, registered partnerships, and deaths, drafted by the Dutch Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, was forwarded to the Council of State (a government advisory body provided for by the Dutch Constitution) for an opinion. For such a measure to be implemented, data in the Registry of Births, Deaths, and Marriages would have to be coordinated with data in the Municipal Personal Records Database (GBA, Gemeentelijke Basisadministratie).

308digital-registration-of-marriages-or-deaths.aspx?cp=35&cs=1578; see also MINISTRY OF THE INTERIOR AND KINGDOM RELATIONS, THE PERSONAL RECORDS DATABASE: FOR THE AUTHORITIES AND FOR YOU (June 2009), available at http://www.emmen.nl/fileadmin/files/www.emmen.nl/Tekstpaginas/Digitaal_L
The proposal also calls for simplification of existing procedures; e.g., various documents such as birth certificates and GBA extracts would no longer have to be presented to the Registrar of Births, Deaths, and Marriages (the Registrar) when registering a marriage, thereby saving time, money, and effort, given that these documents often must be obtained from different municipalities. (Press Release, supra.)
Under the proposed new system, those registering a marriage would simply electronically provide the data required by law, and the Registrar would check it with the GBA. If the Registrar has further questions or requires clarifications, he will contact the registrant. If the data is found to be correct, the marriage registrants can proceed to make an appointment for the traditional solemnization of the marriage. (Id.)
All Dutch government services requiring electronic identification use "DigiD" to prevent such abuses as identity fraud or improper use of personal data, and that system will also be used as the basis for the electronic registration process of births, deaths, and marriages. To ensure that the new electronic registration process is implemented "in a reliable, technically responsible manner," several pilot projects will first be carried out in 2010, with the e-services introduced alongside, not in place of, the customary municipal registration procedures.

Israeli Palestinian ConflictThe social message on "The Israeli/Palestinian Conflict" was adopted in 1989 and its description of the situation at that time and its specific resolutions for action are dated, yet it continues to provide a basic faith-based orientation to issues of the conflict. This orientation is grounded in our trust in the God revealed in Jesus Christ, who brings peace and desires justice for all. The message calls for confession of Lutheran involvement in past wrongs against the Jewish people, continued prayer and solidarity with all who suffer, the end of human rights abuses against Palestinians in the Israeli occupation, and the need for lengthy, sustained negotiations toward a just and lasting peace.
This message should be read in conjunction with more recent ELCA social policy resolutions and the 2009 ELCA Strategy on the Middle East "Peace Not Walls" that guide discernment and action in light of contemporary developments in the Middle East.

Analysis: Supreme Court delays a final showdown over affirmative action
The Texas affirmative action dispute is the first of two Supreme Court cases to be decided this week that deal with the limits of government action to counteract the legacy of state-sponsored racial discrimination. The high court could decide as early as Tuesday an Alabama case challenging key provisions of the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act. Both cases deal with a sticky political and legal question: A half-century after Congress ended American Apartheid, can the federal government treat Southern states and white students differently than others in the name of remedying past wrongs?

Reaction: Everyone from Ted Cruz to Sheila Jackson Lee is claiming victory in Supreme Court affirmative action decision
"Discriminating because of race is wrong, and this was a victory for our color-blind Constitution," Sen. Ted Cruz said in a statement. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a Houston Democrat, said the ruling "reaffirms the value of diverse learning environments for all." [Read More]

Ashland payroll tax may be rising
By DAVID E. MALLOY
The Herald-Dispatch
ASHLAND — The city's payroll tax could be going up and property taxes going down if a proposed city budget is approved before the end of the month.
With expenses going up and revenues going down, changes were needed in the budget for the fiscal year starting July 1, Mayor Chuck Charles said. Revenues from all funds are $51 million for the current year, but will be $46 million for next year, Charles said.
"We're expecting some severe cuts, but no layoffs and no reduction in city services," Charles said Friday. The Ashland Board of City Commissioners approved first reading of the budget Thursday night. The final reading is scheduled June 20. "There will be some belt tightening."
The budget proposal calls for the city's payroll tax to go back up to 2 percent from 1.5 percent. The increase will mean another $2.4 million for the city, City Commissioner Larry Brown said.
However, city property taxes could be going down by 20 percent and the city might not take the 4 percent increase allowed annually under Kentucky law, Charles said.
"We wanted to get our property taxes more in line with other cities of the second class in the state," Charles said.
The closing of the AK Steel coke plant and reduction of the amount of water used by the Marathon refinery complex south of Catlettsburg caused water revenues to be down about $1.2 million, Charles said. "The coke plant was one of our largest water customers," he said.
The city also is facing increased health care costs, $5 million in the past five years, Charles said.
"We have 18 positions open that haven't been filled," he said.

Microsoft launches Bing for iPad
The blocking of Bing outside the USA is one of the major reasons I switched to iPhone from Windows Mobile/Phone. I got tired of having a device that the vendor wouldn't support worldwide. There's no way this side of pluto I'll be "Microsofting" my iPhone, iPad or whatever.
Sure, Apple took an extra year to get to Canada, but their apps MADE it to Canada, feature complete thank you.
I'm not sure what you're talking about -- the app seems to work just fine for me here in Germany…!? Am I missing something…?
And I actually kinda like the app and will probably continue using it…
But then again, I'm not really much of a Google fan anyway -- if Google and all their products and services were to vanish overnight I couldn't care less, wouldnt miss a thing…
I use to work for Microsoft and we had it internal for about 2 months for employee use. I'm honestly surprised it was not leaked to anybody. Cool its out now.
I love Bing. Google is okay but I generally use bing myself

Windows 7 priortised as it supersedes Mobile 6.x
The end is nigh for Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.x OS as the software behemoth continues to reduce its signifiance in the mobile market with support of the operating system to cease on July 15th.
After 19 months Windows Mobile 6.x is to be decommissioned following Microsoft's notification to App developers that it would not be accepting any new application submissions for the Marketplace post July 15th.
Original apps will still be available to purchase by end users, but this will signify the end to innovation on the now obsolete platform.
The Marketplace peaked with around 7,000 apps available to download, but that number has plummeted to less than 2,000 to date prompting the end of Windows Mobile 6.x, with the distinct possibility that Windows will no longer support the OS.
Windows Phone 7 is Microsoft's latest attempt to top the mobile world, and with HTC adopting the interface the computer giants no longer see a need for Mobile 6.

The New York Times suggests that poll numbers and Sarah Palin aren't the Obama campaign's only problem:
After months of record-breaking fund-raising, a new sense of urgency in Senator Barack Obama's fund-raising team is palpable as the full weight of the campaign's decision to bypass public financing for the general election is suddenly upon it.Pushing a fund-raiser later this month, a finance staff member sent a sharply worded note last week to Illinois members of its national finance committee, calling their recent efforts "extremely anemic."
It seems that spending has continued unabated while revenues have lagged. The Times notes:
But the campaign is struggling to meet ambitious fund-raising goals it set for the campaign and the party. It collected in June and July far less from Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's donors than originally projected. Moreover, Mr. McCain, unlike Mr. Obama, will have the luxury of concentrating almost entirely on campaigning instead of raising money, as Mr. Obama must do.The Obama campaign does not have to report its August fund-raising totals until next week, so it is difficult to tally what it has in the bank at this point. A spokesman said that August was its best fund-raising month yet and that the campaign's fund-raising was on track. But the campaign finished July with slightly less cash on hand with the Democratic National Committee compared with Mr. McCain and the R.N.C. The Obama campaign has also been spending heavily, including several million more than the McCain campaign in advertising in August.
But wait, didn't Obama himself tell us that his mastery of an expensive, employee-intensive operation is proof of his fitness for office? Just last week he was saying:
Well, my understanding is that Governor Palin's town of Wasilla has, I think, 50 employees. We've got 2,500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe $12 million a year. You know, we have a budget of about three times that just for the month. So I think that our ability to manage large systems and to execute I think has been made clear over the last couple of years.
Hmm. So it must be fair then to look at his campaign's budgetary situation — a bloated operation with unrealistic revnue projections — and conclude this is a fair test of his executive skills, right? At the very least, his most significant financial decision — to break his pledge on public financing — has proven to be problematic and now forces him to devote precious time to scrambling for dollars. I suspect we won't hear quite as much bragging about his finely tuned campaign in the days and weeks ahead.

While visiting family in Pensacola, the kids and I chartered a boat with Captain Chris Williams. From the time we stepped onto the boat to when we returned back to the dock we were full of smiles and laughter. Not only was it a beautiful day but Captain Chris knew exactly what he was doing and where to take us to catch the fish. I cannot wait until our next visit and we definitely will be calling to reserve our spot for another great day. I highly recommend Captain Chris and we thank him again for a great memory.

DOCOMO interTouch Achieves Marriott's 2013 Global Property Network Standards Certification Latest Certification for DOCOMO interTouch Builds Upon Already Solid Track Record of Success With Marriott SINGAPORE -- (Marketwired) -- 04/02/13 -- DOCOMO interTouch (DCMI), one of the world's largest hotel technology providers, has successfully achieved Marriott International's 2013 Global Property Network Standard (GPNS) certification for its FREEDOM Internet high-speed wired and wireless Internet service. The signing was made official on March 28, 2013 in the presence of Marriott International CIO Bruce Hoffmeister and DOCOMO interTouch CEO Charles Reed during Marriott's 2013 Asia Pacific & Middle East Africa (MEA) One Team Learning Seminar in Bangkok. As one of the first providers to be GPNS certified and to deploy a fully-converged infrastructure in a Marriott hotel, DCMI has a solid track record with Marriott.

The Marriott GPNS program creates a consistent, industry-leading Internet offering across Marriott properties and brands.

Today, 70 percent of all Marriott properties in the Asia Pacific and MEA regions use DCMI's FREEDOM Internet with an estimated seven million guest connections provided annually. Since the original certification two years ago, those Marriott properties using FREEDOM Internet have experienced significant improvements. For example, several properties who were not meeting their guest satisfaction score (GSS) Internet targets before switching to FREEDOM Internet are now are meeting those goals, and 97 percent of guests are easily able to connect to the Internet with no need for helpdesk support. "In the two years since first achieving GPNS certification, we are delighted that those Marriott properties have seen tremendous improvement in Internet guest satisfaction scores," said DCMI's Reed. "By completing this recertification, we further strengthen our long-standing relationship with Marriott and look forward to many more years of successful Internet deployment." DCMI offers a complete suite of FREEDOM solutions: FREEDOM Check In, which allows guests to check in via a phone and access their rooms directly; FREEDOM Security, which integrates physical security solutions such as CCTV cameras over the IP network; FREEDOM Entertainment, which provides a complete suite of IPTV solutions; and FREEDOM Print and FREEDOM Business Center, which offer secure remote printing as well as hotel business center systems, protecting users and hardware.
